After providing listeners with some basic facts about the Supreme Court, and walking through the Court’s history, Kasey and Martin have finally arrived at the modern Court era!  In this episode, the hosts discuss the changes that have occurred since 2005, when Chief Justice Roberts joined the Court.  In that year, tall tees and Baby Phat reigned supreme (ba doom cha), The Wire was on a hiatus, and the U.S. was embroiled in (at least) two major wars.  It was also the beginning of the Supreme Court’s extreme shift to the right that operates to the detriment of all of us in the United States.

Today’s discussion also explores the clear connection between the Rehnquist Court and the Roberts Court.
