TEMPORADA 1, EPISÓDIO 1

Cruel and Unusual

On the inaugural episode of More Perfect, we explore three little words embedded in the 8th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution: “cruel and unusual.” The Supreme Court has continually grappled with what these words mean, especially as they pertain to one of our most hot button issues as a country: the death penalty.

The Political Thicket

The question of how much power the Supreme Court should possess has divided justices over time. But the issue was perhaps never more hotly debated than in Baker v. Carr. On this episode of More Perfect, we talk about the case that pushed one Supreme Court justice to a nervous breakdown, brought a boiling feud to a head, put one justice in the hospital, and changed the course of the Supreme Court – and the nation – forever.

Gaza Is Kamala Harris’s Moral Challenge, and Also Her Opportunity

Slate staff writer Aymann Ismail gets “On the Call” with host Kai Wright to share his reporting on the “uncommitted” Democrats pushing Kamala Harris for an arms embargo on Israel — and the awkward scene he found at the Republican National Convention. Plus, they talk about the nominee’s notorious “I’m speaking” moment at a rally in Detroit in response to interruptions from pro-Palestinian protestors, and the work the Harris-Walz campaign has to do to engage voters who are dismayed at the White House response to Israel’s war in Gaza. Companion listening: A 9/12 Story: ‘I Forgot I Was a Muslim Kid’ Ismail talks about his post-9/11 childhood in northern New Jersey, and what he learned about his identity as an adult. How did September 11, 2001, and its aftermath, affect the way anyone perceived as Muslim fit inside the American experiment? Perhaps you’ve noticed: the news is newsing in overdrive lately. Notes from America is meeting the moment with an extra podcast drop on Thursdays like this one. It's a pop-up series of conversations about politics, voters and democracy right now that we're calling “On the Call.” Tell us what you think. We're @noteswithkai on Instagram and X (Twitter).

Why Waiting for the Next TV Season Takes So Long Now

Long gaps between season finales and premieres have become standard across television. The Ringer senior editor Ben Lindbergh and journalist and data scientist Rob Arthur teamed up to write an article headlined "The Breaks Between TV Seasons Have Gotten Really Long." They break down why the annual release schedule is fading, what’s driving longer waits between seasons, and how streaming, labor changes, and audience habits are reshaping the TV landscape.

No More Souters - Revisited

Justice David Souter has died. Souter was one of the most private, low-profile justices ever to have served on the Supreme Court. He rarely gave interviews or speeches. Yet his tenure was anything but low profile. Deemed a “home run” nominee by Republicans, Souter defied partisan expectations on the bench and ultimately ceded his seat to a Democratic president. As we reflect on his legacy, we wanted to share this episode again. Produced two years ago, this episode tells the story of how “No More Souters” became a rallying cry for Republicans and inspired a backlash that would change the Court forever. Voices in the episode include: • Ashley Lopez — NPR political correspondent • Anna Sale — host of Slate's Death, Sex & Money podcast • Tinsley Yarbrough — author and former political science professor at East Carolina University • Heather Gerken — Dean of Yale Law School and former Justice Souter clerk • Kermit Roosevelt III — professor at University of Pennsylvania School of Law and former Justice Souter clerk • Judge Peter Rubin — Associate Justice on Massachusetts Appeals Court and former Justice Souter clerk • Governor John H. Sununu — former governor of New Hampshire and President George H.W. Bush’s Chief of Staff Learn more: • 1992: Planned Parenthood v. Casey • 1992: Lee v. Weisman • 2000: Bush v. Gore • 2009: Citizens United v. FEC

Trump Assassination Attempt Exposes Security Concerns, Conspiracy Theories and a Democracy In Danger

Federal investigators are charged with uncovering how a 20-year-old man was able to use an automatic rifle from a rooftop just outside of a campaign rally for Donald Trump to open fire, killing one attendee and injuring others, including the former president. The horrific images from the rally flooded social media timelines, followed by conspiracy theories, misinformation and more concerning narratives that demonstrate how trust in politicians and media alike has eroded. In this episode, host Kai Wright unpacks the violence and the fallout with a panel of expert guests. Joining him are: Juliette Kayyem, professor of national security at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, CNN senior national security analyst, former United States Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security, and author of “The Devil Never Sleeps: Learning to Live in an Age of Disasters.”David Gilbert, reporter for WIRED who covers disinformation and online extremism.Jacob Ware, research fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations who studies domestic and international terrorism and counterterrorism.

Who’s Winning the Swing States? Let’s Check the Polls.

Everything about the dynamic of the 2024 election changed when Joe Biden ended his re-election campaign and endorsed Kamala Harris to take his place on the Democratic Party ticket. But are the polls looking much different now that there’s a new match-up? This week, host Kai Wright gets Patrick Toomey on the call to talk about some of the latest survey data in critical parts of the country. Toomey is a partner at BSG, a consulting and research firm that has collaborated with Cook Political Report and GS Strategy Group on The Swing State Project, which aims “to better understand how voters in the seven key battleground states are evaluating the many cross-pressures of the presidential and down-ballot races in their states.” Toomey discusses their findings, and whether Harris’s infusion of fresh energy is enough to steady the swing in pivotal places. Perhaps you’ve noticed: the news is newsing in overdrive lately. Notes from America is meeting the moment with an extra podcast drop on Thursdays like this one.
