Acerca de esta escucha

5-4 is a podcast about how much the Supreme Court sucks. It's a progressive and occasionally profane take on the ideological battles at the heart of the Court's most important landmark cases; an irreverent tour of all the ways in which the law is shaped by politics. Visit fivefourpod.com to learn more.


Presented by Slow Burn co-creator Leon Neyfakh, 5-4 is a production of Prologue Projects.

    Crime rates are at historic lows, yet year after year, people say that they feel unsafe and believe crime is rising. You can thank the news media with help from corporations and law enforcement narratives. We speak with civil rights lawyer Alec Karakatsanis about his new book, Copaganda: How Police and the Media Manipulate Our News.

    If the Supreme Court can take away constitutional rights from one minority group, it can do it to any of us. Yes, even podcasters.

    No Due Process, Yes Jumbo Plane [SUBSCRIBER-ONLY]

    Since taking office, Trump has moved quickly to implement his authoritarian agenda. Now, he is asking the Supreme Court to limit the judicial branch by preventing individual judges from blocking his orders.

These folks know what they're talking about when it comes to case law. Yes, they have a left wing bias, but that is good, because generally so does reality.

Informative and amazing work.

If you're wondering why things in America seem not great right now, these guys break down the historical and current forces for why brilliantly through the lens of exposing the flaws of one of the country's most powerful and under-examined broken institutions. This show frequently leaves me angry, but also more informed. The hosts' colorful, crass humor is a welcome bit of honey to help some miserable medicine go down.

Necessary

The case covers are really great. I love listening to them and wish I had them while in law school.

The more political ones not connected to cases are extreme and biased to the left. They're so cringy its hard to listen to. They make attacks that make no sense (e.g. tell Alito to come out and say he doesn't know what the flag means but actually did do that, they just don't provide the whole statement).

Their leaps in logic are insane. A flag a wife puts up somehow shows that a justice is a fascist, with no other evidence. But pesky details like Merchan recusals? Never even possibly mentioned.

Case episodes are amazing and a huge service. Political episodes are hack jobs.
