“I accidentally came across this. Learned so much about history, process, (in)justice, fallibility of the American jurisprudence. This is very well researched and at the same time entertaining. I find myself chuckling and oftentimes contemplating the impact of Supreme Courts decisions on the lives...”Read full review »

“Love this podcast. Personally, I ignore the musical themed episodes, but the rest are fantastic.
If you don’t want a Supreme Court podcast getting too political, this is a decent pick, exploring the law with a fairly neutral voice and enjoying the details of what the law does and says (though...”Read full review »

It was not an opinion show with a reporter talking on and on about their...”Read full review »

“For my ears, mind and heart, there’s no better use of my listening time than this show. The topics chosen are of great importance to our country and provide perspective beyond what is usually available in the media. The show should be part of any citizen’s civic education.

“A beautifully crafted series that marries education and entertainment. As one who, too often, avoids anything political in nature I leave feeling inspired to be more active and pay closer attention to the judicial system!”

“The first season was some of the most brilliant podcasting I’ve ever heard. It was a must listen. Thoughtfully written with little or no particular agenda— an exceptionally well-researched examination of cases from the Supreme Court. It is now sillier, superficial & baldly biased”

“Would be 5 ⭐️ except for the fact that they continue to give the mic to this nerd named Micah Loewinger. He’s a huge dork, probably a virgin, absolutely unlistenable, just saying. Same goes for his work with ‘On the Media’; I used to love that show but now this nerd ruins it week by week. Sad 😞”

“The man had a vision to uphold black nationalism. But had a change of ways to achieve the same? The show implied that that is the case.
