Between The Lines

The guys discuss the least used, most obscure amendment in the Bill of Rights, the 3rd Amendment.  They discuss recent precedent used during the eviction moratorium.  They draw the line from the 1st and 2nd amendments to show the pattern of what the founders were trying to protect.  Personal, Private Property.

The guys discuss the concepts of Mutual Exclusivity, Mutual Inclusivity, and Cognitive Dissonance and how it relates to current public discourse.  They discuss the similarities between the political factions in the US as far as their passions for ideas, for example the left feels about abortion the same way the right feels about the 2nd Amendment.  They discuss the possibility that we as citizens could find mutual ground by realizing what we have in common with each other and not dismiss the other side because we're "supposed to".

The guys discuss the current focus on gun control.  They discuss possible common sense solutions that would lend the biggest impact on the frequency of mass shootings and the give and take that is going to be required to solve a very complex problem without infringing upon the rights of those who have done nothing wrong.  The validity of raising the purchase age to 21 and the misconceptions and possible dangers of red flag laws.  Something needs to be done but to what extent are we willing to cede rights to the government.

The guys discuss the 2nd Amendment, it's context in the time it was written as well as how it is applied today.  They discuss Militias, who belongs to Militias, and how Militias apply to the 2nd Amendment.  They also discuss why the 2nd Amendment is important to both the Left and the Right as it applies to political affiliation.

The guys discuss the right to assemble and petition in the context of the recently leaked draft majority opinion that appears to be slated to end the precedent set by the landmark case of Roe v Wade (1973).  They discuss their views on abortion and why both sides feel the way they do, as well as arguments for both viewpoints.  We also discuss the appropriateness of assembling and petitioning in private neighborhoods and private homes.

The guys discuss the intricacies of freedom of the press, they emphasize that the "Press" is not the news media, but the freedom of printing/disseminating information by everyday citizens. They touch on the relation of Free Religion to the Free Press and how the two are attached in the scope of true liberty.  They discuss the establishment clause and the myth of "Separation of Church and State" as it is misunderstood in today's society.

The guys have an in depth discussion on the history and meaning of the 1st Amendment, how it applies to freedom and the context of the threats against the 1st Amendment today.  They discuss certain limits on free speech and the Supreme Court precedents that set up the framework of modern free speech.

The guys discuss the tense exchange between Elon Musk and Bill Gates over Gates short selling Tesla stock, the death of comedy and the movies that will never be made again, the latest in the Disney drama, and Mike Tyson beats the tar out of an annoying passenger on an airline.  All this and more on Between The Lines.

The guys carry on their conversation about Elon Musk's attempt to acquire Twitter.  They expand upon this with a discussion of the ethics of corporate America, whether corporations should be considered "people" and whether they can grow too big for the "Free Market" to regulate.  They speak on the irony in the left's suggestion that in order to protect freedom you must restrict freedom, this and much more on Between The Lines.
