#FSCK 'Em All!

WTFsck? Volume 7 (Episode 73)

Listen Later

T. Greg’s been out of town for Independence Day, so that means we turn the show over to YOU! In this Supreme Court-heavy WTFsck, we give you answers to questions like: Are “close” Supreme Court opinions less powerful than other ones? Can you appeal a Supreme Court decision? And why does it matter who appoints the justices anyway? Plus several more!
