Title: New podcast, "In Dissent"
Post by: Yrisarri_blacksmith on May 31, 2026, 02:09:18 AM
I just learned about a brand new podcast, "In Dissent" by Anastasia Boden of the Pacific Legal Foundation.

From its description:
"In Dissent traces the founding ideals of the Declaration of Independence from the revolutionary moment of their birth to the courtrooms where they've been tested, twisted, and sometimes abandoned. Each episode pairs vivid historical storytelling—a man riding through the night to break a deadlocked vote, a printer setting type for a document that could get him hanged—with landmark Supreme Court cases that reveal the distance between America's founding promise and its legal reality."

There is only one episode so far, created last Wednesday.

I'm listening to the first one now.   So far I am finding it interesting.

I am listening to it through the "Pocketcasts" app on my phone, and it should be available on other podcast apps, but it is certainly available through spotify at:

And for what it's worth, episode two,  discussion of the meaning "the pursuit of happiness" and the impact of The Slaughter-house Cases on the interpretation of the 14th amendment, dropped today.
