#T3BE 245 - Early Answer for Patrons
Woo, this was a rough L to take on a three-question losing streak; the right answer was (B) and Thomas picked everything but that, eventually settling on (C) alongside the coin. Thomas is now 128-for-245 (52.2%), and the coin is 8-for-20 (40%).

LAM53: From the Hip
It's an 'f it, we'll do it live!' edition of LAM! This time, we're reviewing Andrew's favorite movie and definitely the reason he became a lawyer, From the Hip with Judd Nelson. It's... weird. But not really that bad? But very weird. Listen in!

Thomas did, in fact, talk himself out of the right answer (D), in favor of the wrong backup choice, (A). His only comfort must be that the coin also got it wrong. Thomas is now 128-for-244 (52.5%), and the coin is 8-for-19 (42.1%).

We had a huge day at the Smith house. It's all positive stuff! but short notice major things happened today. I'm about 35 minutes of showtime edited, tomorrow I have some recording during the day and I'll have to finish editing after that.
I always want to give you fine patrons the goods but this is the second time this year that I've been delayed! Promise it won't become a habit.
See you tomorrow with that ad-free goodness.
Thomas.

Andrew's favorite Constitutional Law expert, Laurence Tribe, has written an op-ed in the Boston Globe arguing that a Massachusetts case called Larkin v. Grendel's Den will "end the Texas abortion law." That sounds too good to be true. So, is it too good to be true? Or is it just true? Find out! But t...

#T3BE 243 - Early Answer for Patrons
Tough one! Thomas and the coin both got this wrong, picking (B), with the right answer being (C). Thomas is now 128-for-243 (52.7%), and the coin is 8-for-18 (44.4%).
2021-09-06 22:59:59 +0000 UTC View PostOA523: Is the CA Recall Unconstitutional?
Andrew breaks down the state of the recall, the porked polls, and Clark v. Weber! Paffrath still seems to be some sort of Democratic frontrunner, but how much of that is real and how much is poll pork? After breaking down the interesting arguments in the suit against the recall, we answer a listener who is critical of our critical opinions of the recall. Were we wrong? Find out!

We got to like zero of these stories but we still love Miss Ashley.

This is not an exaggeration. Sure, technically speaking the Supreme Court hasn't said the magic words "we overturn Roe v. Wade" but they used the shadow docket to effectively eliminate it. This is bad. Very, very bad. So what exactly happened? What's in the Texas law that SCOTUS allowed to stand? How completely garbage, unprecedented, and counter to the rule of law is this move? Listen the Andrew's expert analysis and find out.

OA520: Kraken Lawyers Hit with Sanctions! YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Today's episode is. So. Satisfying. It's not just sanctions against all the Kraken lawyers. That alone would already be amazing. But it's ALSO consequences for world's most punchable douchebag Jacob Wohl. It's so, so good. Take a listen. You've earned it.
Ok full disclosure there is a slight amount of bad news regarding Texas Democrats having to return to the state empty handed, since a couple of Democrats refuse to do the right thing and eliminate the filibuster. No sugar coating that one, but we move quickly through that and get to the ...

Thomas and the coin both porked this question (and Thomas porked a promising 2-question win streak) by picking B when the correct answer was A. This is a tough one! Thomas is now 127-for-241 (52.7%) and the coin is 7-for-16 (43.8%).

It's another edition of Ace Associate Morgan Stringer's Pop Law! The media widely reported that Jamie Spears intends to step down as conservator. BUT.. that's a bad law thingy. He actually isn't. Tune in and hear the real law talkin'! Then, we talk about some great news in the battle for trans rights. Hobby Lobby was dealt a loss by the court. On the bad news front though, the Whole Woman's Health v. Paxton decision was horrible. But Mr. Sunshine himself, Andrew Torrez, has a positive spin for us.
OA518: Terpsichore Tries Her Hand at Frivolous Lawsuits
Terpsichore, who also goes by dozens of slight variations on her name, saw the Kraken nonsense that has led to nothing but sanctions hearing after sanctions hearing and figured why not do... more terrible law. She's suing Dominion back for eleventy billion dollars. How is that damages number justified? GFY. What are the alleged counts of defamation? GFY. Where do these horrible lawyers keep coming from and how did they beat Thomas at the bar exam? We'll never know. Hear all about it on today's show! After that, we do some Andrew was wrong, r...

#T3BE 240 - Early Answer for Patrons
Woo, Thomas has started an all-new, all-different two-question winning streak, picking the correct answer (B). He's now 127-for-240 (52.9%). The coin piggybacked on his success, picking (B), and is now 7-for-15 (46.7%).
