5-4 is a podcast about how much the Supreme Court sucks. Hosted by Peter Shamshiri, Rhiannon Hamam, and Michael Liroff, it's a progressive and occasionally profane take on the ideological battles at the heart of the Court's most important landmark cases and an irreverent tour of all the ways in which the law is shaped by politics.

This is the least legal “legal” podcast I’ve come across. If you’d like to hear hyper-partisan complaining about the legal system, you’ve come to the right place. If you’d like actual treatment of the arguments and theories, look elsewhere.
