I Tried
Truth is this is half intelligent commentary and, sadly, half pathological malice — toward anyone with a different opinion. Their explanation of Legal Realism is coherent and engaging. Their presentation of historical cases illuminates the practical application of this perspective. The three are equally sharp, have great rapport and it COULD be an amazing podcast — but it is not They offer no intelligent argument against cases they disagree with. Instead, they become lame partisans: laughing while making personal attacks and idiotic, puerile accusations. The conversation becomes so shallow and so . . . dumb it’s hard to believe the same people are speaking. As a top grad from a top law school, I feel qualified to judge and do acknowledge the eloquence and accuracy on display when offering their perspectives. But their inability and unwillingness to reasonably articulate views of those they oppose quickly makes it a chore to listen That this inability and unwillingness seems normal to the hosts is alarming

This will be a tremendous podcast. Any light that can be shined on the disgusting, nakedly partisan, antiquated institution known as the Supreme Court is wholly welcomed in this age of politics.

I stayed for everything else. The joy over Rehnquist being dead will keep me coming back.

Lol
If I could give no stars I would. You’re lawyers, act like it. I don’t care where you stand politically but the immaturity and the giggling of this podcast ruins it.
