In the "Can You Dig It" podcast episode, hosts Joe and Dan discuss the historical significance of St. Louis lawyers and court cases. They highlight the impact of the Virginia Minor case in 1874, which, though unsuccessful, paved the way for the 19th Amendment granting women the right to vote. They also mention Hamilton Rowan Gamble's dissenting vote in the Dred Scott case, which influenced the 13th and 14th Amendments. Additionally, they cover Edward Bates' role as Attorney General during the Civil War and George Vest's famous eulogy for a dog. The episode concludes with a discussion on the Missouri Plan for selecting Supreme Court judges and the City of Ladue vs. Galileo Vet case, which upheld the First Amendment.
