Listen What Listeners Are Saying About Our Podcasts 5/5 Fair and Balanced, but actually I love this podcast and if the Supreme Court interests you, you will love it too. They do a great job of having guests who are thoughtful and opinionated and have totally different views on important topics but at the same time almost never are they rude. It’s a great example of how reasoned discussion and debate can still exist and is a fundamental part of our democracy. Well done. 5/5 Vital Work for Our Future Please give the NCC a listen. They take the temperature down on divisive issues and March the discussion forward. 5/5 Intelligent Discussion Intelligent, interesting, & important discussion on Constitutional matters.
