    #43- I Commandment You to Subscribe

    This episode, I skip everything on my list to cover whether the Ten Commandments belong in public schools. Also, had to re-record because my microphone rebelled and I didn't know it. https://www.edweek.org/policy-politics/posting-ten-commandments-in-schools-was-struck-down-in-1980-could-that-change/2024/07 https://www.newsweek.com/louisiana-right-want-10-commandments-classrooms-opinion-1905566 https://um-insight.net/perspectives/why-posting-the-ten-commandments-in-schools-is-wrong/ https://www.facebook.com/WildflowersFancies/posts/these-memes-just-make-themselves-at-this-point/864930655660664/ https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/rankings/education https://imgflip.com/i/8urbfa https://www.outofpocket.health/p/is-vision-insurance-a-scam

    #41- Executive Disarray

    A short episode today, Jaywalkers! It's a quick primer on what executive orders are and a couple questions: Are executive orders overreach in general, is there a limit, or are they all good? And should Congress and the courts try fighting more of them or not? Let me know your thoughts in the comments or at JaywalkThroughLife@gmail.com!
