Cumulus/Westwood One and Leon Neyfakh’s Prologue Projects has released a new show called 5-4, which takes an irreverent look at the U.S. Supreme Court’s past.
Each episode focuses on a pivotal case in which the Justices make one of the most important decisions in recent memory – dissecting it from every angle and tearing it apart.
The first episode, available now, tackles Bush v. Gore.
Comments:
Bush v. Gore is certainly vulgar, irreverant, and juvenile as well as intellectually dishonest and factually incorrect. Its vibe completely obliterates what could have been a useful exercise in correctly diminishing the unwarranted aura surrounding the court. A much better podcast is A More Perfect Union.
