  • I love that the case summary and questions are in the descriptions now. So helpful! Thank you! At work, I couldn’t listen to the live oral argument this morning for Wolford v. Lopez, so I was psyched when I saw it already uploaded for my long drive home. No more waiting days for new cases to be available like other podcasts I’ve tried. Thorough and punctual is much appreciated! Definitely going to check out his new website to see what other legal goodies he’s cooked up for SCOTUS nerds like me.

  • Convenience & Problem Fixing

    I deeply appreciate the way you make Supreme Court oral arguments so accessible. The official site often falls short in providing an intuitive, podcast-like experience for listening to these proceedings, but you’ve achieved something remarkable by doing just that. Thank you!

    I’ve listened to over 500 arguments in full, and the breadth of legal insight I’ve gained is invaluable. It’s a true pleasure and has been instrumental in fulfilling my ongoing passion for legal knowledge.

  • many thanks !

    An incredibly useful + convenient resource for any American citizen -- or anyone else with an interest, professional or personal, in American jurisprudence. Many thanks to the law student who took the time to set up here, in podcast format, the audio recordings (and transcription) of oral arguments for each case taken up by the Supreme Court in real time.

    A genuinely educational resource providing additional ease of access to the daily workings of our highest judicial body. Simple, to the poin... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

T. M. v. Univ. of MD Medical Sys. Corp.
Q: Why not rely on preclusion and related doctrines instead of expanding Rooker-Feldman to cover collateral attacks?
Preclusion and abstention principles already address many concerns about duplicative litigation and respect state law judgments, so relying on them provides a more targeted, federalism-friendly approach than broad Rooker-Feldman expansion.
FCC v. AT&T
Q: Is the initial agency determination binding or non-binding, and how does that affect the Seventh Amendment right to a jury trial?
The argument centers on whether the statute's binding language means the initial order itself creates a liability that must be resolved with a jury, or if non-binding orders followed by de novo review can satisfy the Seventh Amendment; the discussion weighs historical cases and statutory wording to determine the correct framework for review.
Trump, President of U.S. v. Barbara
Q: What is the controlling rule of decision for birthright citizenship in this context?
The controlling rule is that birth within the United States generally confers citizenship under the 14th Amendment, subject to a closed set of exceptions, and that Wong Kim Ark supports a domicile-based interpretation of allegiance tied to the universal rule, with tribe-specific and other exceptions remaining fixed.
Pung v. Isabella County
Q: When does the taking occur?
The taking is at the time the right of redemption expires, ending the owner's control.
Pung v. Isabella County
Q: What if it were a completely fair process?
The answer is that the Fifth Amendment guarantees just compensation.
