Episode 160: This Podcast Is Invoking “P”!

Listen Later

This is our second lockdown episode, simulcast as a Zoom-based video!  If you didn’t believe us before about our commitment to production authenticity, well you will if you watch the video version! [ed. note: guys, that’s not funny, you can’t blow off your lack of production values and slapdash approach to all this by claiming it makes you “authentic”!]  You should be able to download it here: https://utexas.app.box.com/v/NSLepisode160

Happily, we are joined this week by Prof. Jen Daskal from American University’s Washington College of Law.  Jen is our first two-time guest on the show (our first live event was with her students at American last year)!  Tune in for discussions of:

  • The power of the federal government (or lack thereof) in relation to state public health directives to shelter-in-place or otherwise restricting movement
  • The President’s emphatic invocation of “P!” directed at GM today…to which we say, covfefe!
  • What might occur in the weeks ahead in relation to data-gathering in support of public health measures (especially exposure-tracking and quarantine enforcement)
  • The United Kingdom’s Supreme Court ruling in “the Beatles” case, refusing to allow the Home Secretary to pass the fruits of a British criminal investigation to the US Justice Department because the United States intends to seek the Death Penalty in that case.  Will we now see a shift to prosecution without the death penalty, or instead ongoing military detention? And if the latter, will it hold up in court?

    • And then there’s the frivolity. If you are ready to talk Picard or West World, we are here for you!
