On Free Speech Nation: The Podcast, comedian Andrew Doyle talks to people who don’t hold back - people who think it’s better to be honest about what you believe, so differences can be resolved. Today, saying the wrong thing can lose you your job, your friends and even get you in trouble with the law. Unsurprisingly, people are nervous of speaking their mind. They feel they have to self-censor, rather than say what they really think. Andrew’s getting the adults back in the room to chat frankl ...

In Season 2 of Stream of Conscience, we dive deeper into religious liberty to explore its two major components, the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause. What did the framers of the Constitution mean when they forbade the “establishment” of religion? Who gets to decide what “free exercise” of religion includes? What’s the difference between the two clauses, and how do we argue cases arising under them? Season 2 also introduces cases that are not strictly religious liberty cases. ...

August 9, 2024 As people flock to the Harris/Walz events, the GOP is just getting weirder and weirder, with Donald Trump making odd claims on his social media that Biden is somehow going to re-enter the race, and that Kamala Harris leading the ticket is now some kind of coup. Meanwhile, Dems are on message, talking about issues that working familie…

July 25, 2024 This race is about many things, but the implications for working people simply can’t be overstated.

We discuss the threat of a second Trump term with Jimmy Williams, Pres…
