Very pathetic misguided pseudo intellectuals. Rated ten vomits based on the Trump election episode!!!

This is truly an exceptional podcast, which brings together every week the encyclopedic knowledge and uniquely wonderful character of Akhil Amar and the charm and intellectual grace of Andy Lipka. They explore the current constitutional landscape and the fascinating history of our constitution...Read full review »

It is obvious these fools have been infected with the satanic woke mind virus. They are very partial and bigoted, and push the satanic agenda that is destroying America.

Listen to just a few episodes to see how full of themselves academics are and how completely blinded by Marxist ideology. An eye opener when it comes to why woke ideology has taken over the judiciary.

I have been listening to the Amarica’s Constitution podcast for a few years now. But I have to unfollow this podcast after the 2024 first court session. There are just too many instances that Professor Amar dresses his anti Trump viewpoints in legal opinions and constitutional interpretations....Read full review »

Akhil Amar and Andy Lipka are the best always, particularly in this podcast “Disgrace.” I can’t express how wonderful it is to hear Akhil and Andy discuss the recent Supreme Court’s opinion on presidential immunity. I’m no lawyer, but I know garbled bluster and fudge when I read it and that’s...Read full review »

After Alito and Thomas have been exposed as unethical political actors.. Amar goes on about how writing and getting paid for a book is about the same thing. GIVE ME BREAK. Not calling a duck a duck is disheartening.

The latest episode has no audio. Hasn’t anyone noticed? I had to listen on Spotify for this week’s episode. Hope you fix it!

Ugh
This review is specifically related to the latest episode regarding Justice Alito and the upside down flag. It really really really was difficult to listen to! I don’t know how Andy could sit through that conversation and remain so calm and level. I hope Professor Amar goes back and listens to...Read full review »

If you want to understand our Constitution than this podcast is exactly what you should listen to. It’s not just for lawyers, but if you are a lawyer, you receive continuing education credits by listening.
Amat’s Army via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/06/24
It’s a good, substantive podcast but would be better if co-host (Lipka) were able to tone down or better dissimulate his case of “TDS.” Lipka never asks whether this or that prosecution is historically unprecedented in nature, politically motivated … just desperately wants to see Trump go to...Read full review »

Amar does not have Trump Derangement Syndrome. To the contrary, he sees Trump for the existential threat and vacuous blowhard that Trump is. If Amar has a fault (and don’t we all) it is that, at heart, he is insecure in his status as a preeminent scholar and authority - he is truly both, but...Read full review »
Rob in MA. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/24
It’s with heaviest of heart I finally had to delete this podcast from my line-up. Trump just lives rent free in both these guy’s heads and it’s just not enjoyable. Amar has lost his way but I mainly blame his co-host for it. This guy is a liberal whack job to the extreme. When Amar first started...Read full review »

I’m not a lawyer or scholar. I listen because I care about this country and want to understand the issues SCOTUS is deciding. I appreciate the deep constitutional knowledge, the reasoned analysis and the civility these conversations offer. This podcast should be required in classes around the...Read full review »

Ignore your disagreement with some of his opinions. What this podcast provides is nothing less than a peek inside the highest court of the land, from one of the nation's leading originalists. News coverage of SCOTUS almost always covers only politically controversial cases, and simply...Read full review »
LordFlashFire via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/01/24
There is a reason he calls the show Amarica’s Constitution because it has little relation to America’s Constitution. He feels that it would be a better country if state officials could decide our presidential elections before we get to vote by picking who runs. He thinks it would be great if we...Read full review »

After listening to this podcast, I’m convinced listeners now know more about Section 3 of Article 14 of the Constitution than the Supreme Court. And that worries me. I’m glad I listened but my listening isn’t as important as theirs would be.

Stephen Toulmin called it the return to reason and in many ways this podcast attempts to make constitutional issues understandable and reasonable. I am a lay person- retired business professional and - many years ago - a college instructor in debate and forensics. This program is really helpful...Read full review »

When something makes sense, it just makes sense, and Andy and Professor Amar make sense. There is no pandering to one political perspective, there is simply the Constitution, the context and history, and the precedent. This podcast gives me hope that people in the constitutional law world are...Read full review »

Thanks to two exceptional scholars for taking the time to make this podcast.

The disqualification of a president from future candidacy is provided under the Constitution under the impeachment rules: Congress shall decide ; first the Congress and then the Senate. Article XIV s 3, if applicable, again puts Congress in charge of any enforcement of s3. The...Read full review »

Is Prof. Amar aware how often and how pervasively he promotes his own role in shaping SCOTUS opinions and other scholarship? You could play a drinking game by taking a shot every time he toots his horn, though beware: you’ll probably pass out before the episode ends. John Carlson Boulder CO

I’ve been looking for a podcast that goes deep into intellectual thought, discussion of the law & how a non-lawyer, law enthusiast can learn more & think deeper about the law. This podcast does it all!
Wishithadcrossfitworkouts via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/12/23
I discovered Akhil Amar about a year ago (thank you Politicology for having him on as a guest), and he quickly rose to the top of my podcast list. i’ve been going back and listening to the episodes that I missed and just finished Voracious Horatius—a riveting look into the intrigue surrounding...Read full review »
BugMan™️ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/31/23
A professor, not a practicing lawyer, and it shows. Right result, wrong clause and a myopic view of the text that somehow only speaks to him. He’s got a novel approach and is for entertainment, not good legal theory. An Originalist shill at heart. Amar is a conservative apologist and, above all...Read full review »
lamby183 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/23
Then I listened to the April 12 episode where Akile twisted himself around every hypothetical situation to defend his friend, Justice Thomas. It was nauseating. I’ve unsubscribed. In my mind there is a huge difference between the influence you claim to assert with the court as a legal scholar ,...Read full review »

BRILLIANT analyses! Akhil Amar is able to masterfully unscramble so much of the static, so much of what is happening in our courts and in our democracy — what we should be caring about! I love how he exuberantly helps us better understand the US Constitution through current events. I bought his...Read full review »
robin reese via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/13/23
Andy can cite Law & Order episodes chapter and verse (S5E10 House Counsel)! Also, both hosts are brilliant and insightful. They bring a refreshingly honest perspective to constitutional issues and acknowledge that principled constitutional analysis does not always yield the result one wants...Read full review »
MJ Chicago via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/23
I like the podcast and don’t want to give it a bad review, but professor Amar interrupts his co-host and the guests far too much! No one else can get a word in and are often interrupted mid word or mid sentence. Clearly he’s brilliant but it’s challenging to listen to someone interrupt others so...Read full review »

Do you honestly believe for a minute that Democrats respect Liz, Cheney, or that they were just happy to have a R-cudgel to club Trump with. Romney was a misogynist racist until he voted to impeach. Also, I do not want to hear anything about how Republicans “ought“ to evict Santos, when Bob...Read full review »

The amount of joy that Andy, Akhil and their guests bring to these discussions is palpable and inspiring. Akhil is also just so intellectually honest and consistent, I think more people could take their cues from his style, even if they disagree (and he actually welcomes and encourages opposing...Read full review »

Looking forward to being a permanent 1L. I think we can do without another visit from the intellectually uncurious Kate Shaw.

Thank you for having this discussion. Thank you Andy for the follow up discussion. It may seem hard to believe that progressive law students don’t want to debate the conservative side, but I’ve seen this in other areas as well. It does not strengthen progressive arguments by declining to debate....Read full review »

I am an avid podcast listener, consuming many hours every week of a handful of various topics. There are others with better sound and production- all of them require a paid subscription, mind you - but none of them offer the incredible, consistently high quality content, and enjoyable hosts.

A fresh look at our Constitution within the historical context that gave it birth. Professor Amar has the gift of teaching, I could listen to him all day (kudos to the podcast Advisory Opinions for introducing him to many of us). Especially enjoy the lively banter between he & co-host Andy.
Jkillion52 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/22
Andy and Akhil are powerhouse intellectuals who bring refreshing insights into constitutional law, current events, and more with each episode. It is high level commentary yet still accessible for anyone interested in learning more about the Supreme Court, American History, and of course, the law....Read full review »
