At last! A new episode!
Well, kinda. We're not yet resuming production (sorry), but Wayne and Stewart got together via Skype to discuss some of 2020's most pressing issues.
Their interview was part of WETS' 2020 fall fundraiser--so, if you're inclined to support the station that brings you "Your Weekly Constitutional," please consider making a donation. -

Two of Stewart's students join us to discuss papers they wrote for his constitutional seminars.
First, Jennifer Bolt tells us about the history of slavery and human trafficking among Asian immigrants.
Then D.T. Christmas talks about, well, breasts.
Join us! -
The Deep State
Is there such a thing? Well, there’s certainly something called the Administrative State, governed by something called administrative law. Stewart’s colleague, Akram Faizer, is writing a new article on it.
He and Stewart discuss Akram's ideas and even argue a little bit about them. Turns out that Stewart has some pretty strong opinions on the subject. -
Presidential Smackdown! Andrew Jackson v. Donald Trump
Donald Trump likes to compare himself to Andrew Jackson. So do his supporters. So do his opponents, for very different reasons.

Exonerated! Part Two
This is Part Two of a two-part episode.
In Part One, we told you about Kristine Bunch, who experienced the worst thing that could happen to any parent: the death of her son, Tony.
Then we started to tell you what happened next: a false accusation of arson and murder, a conviction, and more than a decade in prison.
Now we’ll tell you the rest of Kristine’s story.
