Entertainment
I listen to the podcast more as entertainment than actual fact. If they had a more conservative voice on it then the podcast would lend to more of a balanced opinion. In 2021 (I believe, can’t remember the actual episode) they talk of qualified immunity. Specifically stating that municipalities generally win most cases against individuals. While that may be true the more true fact (if that is the correct verbiage) is that municipalities in the majority of cases settle outside of court. Not because the defendant was right or wrong, but due to the high cost of going to trial. Qualified immunity is not entirely about police violating citizens rights it is more about protecting individual police officers from frivolous law suits. When a police officer arrives on a scene he/she is there to come to a solution to a problem. Often that solution is negotiated, and as the saying goes a good negotiation is when both parties do not feel satisfied. That dissatisfaction is what leads to the frivolousness.

Super funny, incisive and informative show. The hosts are witty and charming, love their spot-on case overviews and rapid fire jokes, really great stuff. Cheers to a packed court.

An unflinching look at the dirty, partisan truth of the Supreme Court. Accessible legal analysis mixed with dark humor, without wasting a shred of deference on the robed wonders. The perfect accompaniment to your morning cup of existential dread.

Content may be interesting... profanity isn’t. Don’t recommend.
