On today’s podcast, David and Sarah talk to Erin Busby, Supreme Court co-counsel for John Ramirez in a critical death penalty religious liberty case. They walk through oral arguments and discuss the mysterious "silent justice." Then David and Sarah talk billboards. Yes, billboards. And they wrap with a discussion of misconceptions of self-defense and the Kyle Rittenhouse case.
Show Notes:
-Ramirez v. Collier oral argument
-City of Austin, Texas v. Reagan National Advertising of Texas Inc. oral argument
POV: You're in your high school classroom listening to Advisory Opinions before school. David says "Chip n' Dale Dancers" and the one student who walked in early hears it. You now get to explain:
1) what the court case is about
2) what Chip n' Dale dancers are
3) what they have to do with the case
The kid says, "I thought Chip and Dale were cartoons." You quickly agree and you chat about that Chip and Dale for a bit while you rummage around for your headphones.
Sarah - El Arroyo explainer. Feefiphobia. Jack and the Beanstalk. Fee Fi Fo Fum.
Also, when David referred to the Church of the Chippendale's Dancers being the spiritual advisors, my first thought was that there is no way Chris Farley alone would fit into the execution room, let alone he and Patrick Swayze both!
