The Case That Changed Everything: Marbury v. Madison and the Rise of Judicial Review
What if one court case gave the Supreme Court its superpower? In 1803, Marbury v. Madison did just that—establishing judicial review and reshaping the balance of power in U.S. government. In this episode, we unpack the case, the politics of the Adams–Jefferson transition, and the brilliance of Chief Justice Marshall’s move. Why does this 200-year-old ruling still echo in cases like Brown v. Board and Bush v. Gore? Let’s find out.
