Guns. Ho.
Advisory Opinions
11/10/22 • 71 min
5.0
Yes, David and Sarah share their post-election thoughts (including the Trump question), but they also talk some law! From Judge James Ho (the scourge of Yale Law School) nudging SCOTUS to recognize an unenumerated right to make a living, to New York state’s gun laws hitting a wall in court... the takes are a-flowing. But none more shocking than David’s all-time top two songs.
Plus: David ruefully performs a post-mortem to his midterm pre-mortem.
