  • Clearly the best of its genre

    Intellectually serious but interpersonally lighthearted, this antidote to unserious legal caterwauling among partisans of both sides should be the podcast of choice for those who actually want to learn about the Supreme Court (or ERISA).

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bedrock Con Law 101
Q: What do you think the world should look like if everyone were to accept your book?
First choice would actually be to maintain the tension, as the tension is fine with me. However, the model of implied powers is also a viable way of reducing limitations on congressional authority.
Bedrock Con Law 101
Q: What is the burden of proof you have set for yourself?
I'm persuaded in something like a clear and convincing way, which means I think what I write is right, but I'm always open to the possibility that I'm not right.
Gorsuch Genie
Q: Will there be a backlash if the court had decided these cases differently?
It seems like they would have faced a backlash and ended up in the same place.
Gorsuch Genie
Q: What would you like the justices to do in the face of political pressure?
They need to buck up and do what the Constitution requires.
Gorsuch Genie
Q: Do you really think it could have been otherwise?
Yes, I actually think they could have come out differently.
