“This is one of the best of a slew of podcasts attempting to make sense of Trump’s legal difficulties. It’s not flawless (4.5* really) and might be better served by concentrating on one story in depth. Sometimes, a shorter running time has more impact. For example, in one episode (April 23rd), there is a brilliant deep dive into the legal complexities of the Mifepristone ban. But next they deliver hot takes on the Discord Leaks. These, by being a little too shallow, skip Texeira’s commitment to far right religious ideology (the keywords here are ‘Trad Cath’). If he was a teenage muslim extremist, there might be less talk along the lines of, “Oh, he’s just a misguided kid.””
