Thomas and the coin both got this right, picking (A). Thomas is now 123-for-234 (52.6%) and the coin is 5-for-9 (55.6%).

This easily breaks the record for longest show title. But seriously, we're fed up with this bogus Supreme Court coverage. In our main segment, Andrew has the full breakdown of Brnovich and just how terrible it is for voting rights, AND how much Alito and the conservatives are legislating from the bench. They are simply overwriting laws they don't like to accomplish right wing goals. This is pretty much an Andrew Was Right show, as the first segment is all about the Florida social media law be...

In purely legal terms, the Cosby release is even WORSE than you have likely heard. It's a complicated legal breakdown, but that's what Andrew is best at! Listen in to understand just how bewildering this ruling was. After that, Andrew gives us a very quick take on the Trump Org indictments.

Thomas got this one right for all the right reasons, picking (B) -- he's now 122-for-233 (52.4%), and moved ahead of the coin (picking D), which is now 4-for-8 (50%).

If you've listened to this show long enough, you know that it is seemingly impossible to be dishonest and corrupt enough for the Bar to do something about it. Well, Rudy Giuliani found a way. The NY bar has slapped him down in a way that our esteemed Andrew Torrez has never seen before. Also, we've got an update on how Christian Health...

Cop Rock is too important a cultural phenomenon to not watch the entire thing. Or is it. We'll see. Find out what happens in episode 2! With special guest Sam.

This is a continuation of Episode 501's exploration of a rather arcane bit of legal jurisprudence that has somehow become the target du jour of the right wing, from Matt Gaetz to Newsmax to... well, Matt Gaetz again. That's right, it's an explanation of what critical race theory actually is, and whether it should be banned. (Hint: no)
In this episode, you'll le...

Thomas nailed this one in every respect -- right answer (C), for the right reasons, and the correct characterization of all the answers. He's now 121-for-232 (52.2%). And yet, due to a cruel trick of mathematics, so did the coin, which jumps out to a commanding lead in the contest as it is 4-for-7 (57.1%).

If you've heard the buzz about Critical Race Theory lately, you... probably have absolutely no idea what it actually is because the people who have already passed laws in several states banning it don't even know. But if you've heard an informed person talk about it, you may have heard that it has its roots in the law. Well then, what better place to give you a deep dive than on a law show! So what is Critical Legal Studies? How did it pave the way for Critical Race Theory? OA is on the case!...

It's bonus OA!!! Andrew takes us through whatever the hell Manchin is trying to do with Republicans, then breaks down two Supreme Court rulings for us. Spoiler: they're terrible.

Thomas's Second Chance Law Firm got this right, picking between (B) and (D), but sadly, he lost ground to the coin on this one -- Thomas picked (D), and the correct answer chosen by the coin was (B).
Thomas is now 120-for-231 (51.9%) and the coin is now right behind at 3-for-6 (50%)!

... and then goes on unhinged Twitter rant full of bad law! We're here to break down just how obviously spurious his allegations are. Then, we address the tremendous amount of feedback we got on Christian Health Sharing Ministries. Some listeners tried to defend them, or at least claimed they got out ahead. Was Andrew wrong? Are they not a scam? Find out!

This episode is exactly why this show exists. Two stories about Merrick Garland's DoJ came out recently that gave the strong impression that Garland was defending Trump policies and even joining forces with religious bigots against LGBTQ rights. These stories are COMPLETELY misleading. As always with complicated legal sto...

Thomas not only biffed this one, he had a rare Second Chance Law Firm failure, choosing (C), and picking (B) as a backup, when the correct answer was D.
Thomas is now 120-for-230 (52.2%) and the coin -- exempted from this one -- remains 2-for-5 (40%).

Andrew stumbled across a Marketwatch article that recommended a Christian Health Sharing company to save money on health insurance. Due to this being a complete scam, Andrew was sent on a Liam Neeson-esque crusade. Let's just say he has a certain set of skills involving documents and research and deep-diving... Listen and find out why this is a scam, and why it still persists and is in fact being incentivized by our government! Yes the Biden one still! Whatever your belief system, PLEASE don'...
