  • 261: Ep.261: The Wisconsin Election
    Nick and Jessa talk about how criminal law bizarrely dictates the discussion around some judicial elections, how it was that most states postponed their primaries but Wisconsin's happened with in-person voting, and more from quarantine life.

  • 260: Ep.260: Scott Panetti Finale
    Jessa and Nick are social distancing and recording, which has led to arguably the worst audio they've ever produced.  (Which all of you know is really saying something.)  We rushed to post this because we missed last week and did not send it to our editor.  If it's intolerable, let us know and we'll pull it and have it edited and put it back up.  We think it's a fun conversation about appeals, competency, and how courts define words, though.

  • 257: Ep. 257: Interview with Film Makers
    So Nick seems to have the corona virus, or something similar.  We'll be back to regularly scheduled programming next week.  In the meantime, here's an interview between Jessa and film makers about an interesting true crime case.

  • 256: Ep.256: South Dakota & Suspect Classes (Crossover w/Queer All Year!)
    Jessa and Nick are joined by the hosts of Queer All Year -- a daily podcast that covers information of note to the LGBT community, both current events and historical data.  Cat had some questions about the now-defunct South Dakota bill that would ban the use of puberty blockers and/or HRT treatment for trans children.  Pop over to the Queer All Year feed to hear the first part of the discussion and finish up with this episode, where we talk about how a class becomes subject to protection under the 14th amendment.
