The best podcast about the law

Lithwick is erudite and is able to cut through the chaff. She illuminates the issues with a spotlight. However, some of her guests cannot stop the lawyer-speak which circles around and around without getting to the point. I can tell they are unaware sometimes that they are obfuscating, but Lithwick does her best to focus them into plaintalk and clarity. In the case of trained lawyers, employing the phrase “use your words” in a discussion needs a moderator moderating the conversation.

What she had to tell us is terrifying and motivating. I'll be doing everything I can to help slow this attempt at demolishing our democracy.
