These three have great chemistry, I’ve learned a lot and have been really empowered to annoy my father in law (lawyer). If you enjoy even half their episodes I highly recommend subscribing here or via Patreon (via web browser). I’ve never had to pause an episode of something to laugh before. (PS...Read full review »

Generally amazing pod - I do think the analysis of union democratic support in the current episode was off. Unions whose members are mostly women, POC, or low wage workers still support Dems and understand Dems are their party. Teamsters, fire, and police unions, these are unions predominantly...Read full review »

Been listening for a bit now and I've learned so much. They are good at explaining things in a way that's understandable without oversimplifying. You might even laughRead full review »

This is a podcast hosted by some of the only public proponents of realist law. They readily identify the ways judicial oversight is not only informed by politics and ideology, but entirely defined by them. This is cutting edge political theory and defenders of the status quo are very threatened...Read full review »

Imagine, if you will, a group of armchair justices lamenting every decision that doesn’t align with their utopian vision, believing that the Constitution is some sort of living document, one that can be bent, twisted, and reinterpreted until it fits snugly into their progressive mold. That’s...Read full review »

This podcast is a must listen, the host are thoroughly entertaining!! SCOTUS has been compromised and Robert’s allowed this to happen. It’s infuriating having 6 men with this mush power!! I come for Peter’s new podcast if books could kill, another must listen🥰

I have quickly become more knowledgeable than almost anyone I know about the Supreme Court, having listened to this pod for a while
Buckley0006 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/23/24
love the pod hate the court

These people always cry when they can’t get what they want.
TheRomanTexan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/24
I really wanted to like this show, and enjoyed several episodes on cases that I didn't go in knowing much about. But when they got to a handful of cases I had already read extensively about, I found they were either greatly misunderstanding or breezily misrepresenting important facts &...Read full review »

Can’t wait to hear what y’all have to say about this absolute insanity from SCOTUS this week. I picked a good time to subscribe. Thank y’all for the work you do. Please keep it up.

The dweebs on the supreme court are total buttholes but the ones on this podcast are great

As someone who grew up with the extreme right, I’m constantly screaming into the void when liberals talk about politics because they’re playing a completely different game assuming the right is playing in good faith. This is one of the few podcasts that understands the structures of American...Read full review »

Listening to this podcast on my lunch break in my car after getting accosted by zionists at my job is literally like having access to an oxygen tank. Truly love you guys
texasroadhousemassacre via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/31/24
I’ve been listening to this podcast for the last year or two and it’s so refreshing. I am not a lawyer, or law student. I don’t even know that much about the judicial system. But listening to these conversations has made me smarter. These are the conversations that I crave about progressive...Read full review »

jhuntern via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/10/24
I’m neither a law student nor a legal professional - nor am I American! - but I’m finding your analysis entertaining and also helpful in understanding the specific crazy intersection of US law and politics. No judging (haha), we Brits certainly have our own deep-seated political issues; yours are...Read full review »
Tricolour Sage via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/05/24
Hosts don’t even try to consider other opinions/arguments, so the podcast is filled with boring & rigid “takes” with NO nuance. Also, I’m a liberal democrat, but I couldn’t stand the hosts’ smugness and “holier than thou” attitudes. For a better SCOTUS podcast, check out strict scrutiny -...Read full review »

also, followed Peter here from If Books Could Kill and so glad I did.

5-4 is a perfect mix of insight, intelligence, thoughtfulness, humor, skepticism, and being right.
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnaaaaaa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/24/24
I have zero background in law and quite frankly have never found it particularly interesting. Naturally, the Supreme Court rulings impact our lives, and I see the headlines. I’ve never delved behind the curtain on how the sausage is made, though we all saw that brought front and center with the...Read full review »

Absolutely my favorite podcast ever. Well produced, intelligent without being soulless. Unapologetic and real. I’m probably a bit more moderate that the hosts, but I deeply respect their perspective and it has definitely swayed me on some topics. Peter, if you ever read this… I swear to god, we...Read full review »

Thanks for talking about this. I appreciate your voices of reason - and of snark.
Truth_is_hope via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/24
I love a bit of dark humor, and you can’t get better than these three lawyers pulling back the robes on one of the most corrupt yet revered institutions in America, exposing how SCOTUS has quietly yet proudly shaped US law and politics—mostly to our detriment.
A. Suiter Clarke via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/27/24
35 days to 4/25/24… 46 cases in Trump v. US. Can you do it? Challenge accepted?? I truly love your podcast. I’m a regular person with regular degrees and all I want to do is become a lawyer thanks to people like the 3 of you. Thanks for what you do. It’s important work. Michelle...Read full review »
MKM0228 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/20/24
Much of the legal system is completely distanced from the general public and when exposed, they generally lack the tools or knowledge to understand it. This pod highlights Supreme Court issues & cases, breaking it down in an understandable way (and in a hilarious way). Untangling these cases...Read full review »

If you identify as progressive, are frustrated by the early 2020s era Supreme Court, and want your priors affirmed with enough detail to pass scrutiny at a dinner party, this is your pod. A greater depth of detail as to this podcast’s failings, while warranted, will not be provided by me....Read full review »

I crave this podcast. It is so good. I learn so much. Happy I found it long after it’s inception so I have 200+ to listen to. Thanks, weirdos. Also lol to having any bad reviews. That means you’re planting seeds in the minds of people who disagree with you. Well played.
jennaclementines via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/24
One of the 1 star reviews said something about “these guys support the trans weirdos”, and I think that perfectly incapsulates the type of people that wouldn’t like this show. I would support this podcast if it was just @the_law_boy twitter, but it comes with a free education on the inadequacies...Read full review »

As much as I’ve enjoyed learning the history of some of our highest court’s worst decisions, the new mini series has piqued my interest even more. It’s important for people to understand the sources and methods for how extremely fringe legal concepts get laundered through the courts.

Keep fighting the good fight
Ra63859112 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/24
I just started listening from the beginning and while this show is amazing, it’s like a horrific recap of the last four years. Oh poor friends, you don’t know yet. But you kind of do, bc you’re weirdly prescient. Keep it up.
stovie26 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/24
Shocking they would platform Ryna Workman who was not fired for “expressing solidarity with Palestine”…but was fired for their inhumane and virulently antisemitic remarks immediately after Oct 7. I am so sad that this podcast took an awful turn into hate speech. Embarrassment to the legal community.
brookeorb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/15/24
You guys actually support those trans weirdos. You must be into some weird stuff. 🤣🤣🤣
Theshotgunraider via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/24
I love this podcast more than I can say. It is informative and hilarious and really helps me keep my sanity - it is my go-to after having an unpleasant interaction with a right wing bigot. The one star ratings of this show are just hollow attacks by angry conservatives with nothing better to do.
Mr. Jim Business via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/05/24
Great job having the terrorist sympathizers on the show, guys. Libs want to cancel conservatives for free speech, yet when liberals give aid to killers like Hamas, it’s oh so terrible injustice. Adolescent brained liberal kids.
Zedhead009 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/03/24
Listen to the dec 21st pod. All of a sudden the “free speech has consequences!” crowd is upset a bunch of disgusting Ivy League students had some job offers rescinded. You created these rules, now you get to live by them. Get bent.
AZDuke06 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/28/23
Shocking that a show by purported legal experts would include so many bad faith arguments. If you can’t support your ideological stance with facts and logic then you ought to re-examine your ideology but the hosts of this show instead choose repeatedly to engage in every form of intellectual...Read full review »
