Ad Absurdum

The pop culture legal team returns to discuss the 1998 Jim Carey drama, The Truman Show. In this movie, a man lives his entire life unaware that he is on an elaborate reality show documenting his every move. Sarah, Meredith and their special guest John question such things as "Can a corporation adopt a baby?" or "How much can Truman sue for them killing his fictional father in front of him?" The answers may surprise you!

--There is a slight clicking noise at the beginning of the episode, but it stops after six minutes. We can only assume it's Christof listening in.

Real bone fide lawyers Meredith, Sarah and Charlie discuss Minority Report, Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise's 2002 assault on the very concept of the 4th Amendment. We pose questions such as: If creepy eye-scanning spiders can come into your home, can they tase you if you don't comply? What would Antonin Scalia think of mutant humans who can see the future? If prisoners are submerged in a lifetime of dreamless sleep, how do they exercise their habeas rights? Is the best way to avoid jurisdictional issues just to deputize the DC Metro police to arrest murderers? Hear all this and more on our very first episode!
