SCOTUS 101 Heritage Podcast Network

With GC out, Jack Fitzhenry once again joins Zack to dive into what's happening at SCOTUS. They discuss the new cases the Court has agreed to hear, the Rahimi oral argument, and NCAA/sports-related SCOTUS trivia.
Zack then interviews Yonatan Green about the proposed reforms to Israel's judicial system and how those differ from the so-called reforms being proposed here in the United States.

GianCarlo is back, the Court is hearing arguments again, and free speech is on the docket. Your hosts discuss a newly granted case that will decide whether the Biden Administration's coordination with social media companies to censor what it labeled misinformation violates the First Amendment. They then unpack the oral arguments in two more free speech cases and a case that challenges civil asset forfeiture procedures. In lieu of an interview, your hosts replay the annual Joseph Story lecture, which Judge James Ho delivered last week. And finally, with an assist from artificial intelligence, GianCarlo tests how well Zack can identify Justices' writing styles.

The end of the term has arrived, and all the biggest cases came with it. Your hosts explain the Harvard and UNC cases, the challenge to Biden's student loan bailout, 303 Creative, Groff v. Dejoy, and all the rest. There is no interview this week because of all the opinions, but no episode would be complete without trivia: it's surprising facts from the term's biggest opinions.

It's the second-to-last week of the term, and the Court handed down its big immigration case, United States v. Texas, another case involving Indian tribes, and cases involving murder-for-hire, a fantastical Russian financial fraud, and a scam to trick people into immigrating illegally. Your hosts discuss those cases, and then GianCarlo interviews Sixth Circuit Judge Amul Thapar about his new book The People's Justice: Clarence Thomas and the Constitutional Stories that Define Him. Judge Thapar has some homework for listeners, so pay attention! Last up, Zack quizzes GianCarlo with trivia about unusual confirmations.
