I have noticed common themes and flaws in how Andy reviews and analyzes current events and legal matters. He has a blind faith that the government agencies always do it right and would never do it or get it wrong. It seems routed that he worked for them and falls into the trap that they must do it the way he did it. When looking at military action would recommend he read Thucydides and glean how fear, honor and interest apply and drive actions. He is very bias on legal cases these days. You can ... more
Stick to legal analysis where McCarthy can claim some expertise. There are thousands of shows that can offer wild speculation on foreign policy and even a few that bring in true experts with informed opinions.
The June 25th show was only McCarthy mouthing off about Iran while completely ignoring all the Supreme Court decisions. There is no longer any point in listening
Your legal analysis is first class and worth hearing. However, your assessments about Iran and sometimes Trump are overly legalistic and miss the bigger points.
Normally this is a four-star, sometimes five-star podcast. I really appreciate Mr. McCarthy's experience and understanding of the rule of law in the realm of domestic crime and foreign conflicts, despite what have become Rich's predictably sophomoric takes on the latest outrage from our president (*giggle* "Just Trump being Trump *giggle*). However, I was disappointed when the two turned to the topic of the Pope's criticism of this administration, effectively saying it's not the Pope's place to ... more

A analytically rigorous show led by two seasoned legal minds, weaving constitutional interpretation with national security and foreign policy. Episodes frequently dissect Supreme Court decisions, War Powers, sanctions regimes, and strategic implications in the Middle East, all through a legal lens that emphasizes the rule of law and due process. Regular debates are punctuated by guests who contribute legal, national-security, or policy expertise, creating a thoughtful, sometimes provocative, take on current events. Noteworthy is the clear emphasis on civil-liberties, executive power, and the balance between law and politics, plus candid, back-and-forth banter between hosts that keeps dense topics accessible for informed listeners who want d... more
