(Pedantic nitpicking) I think you mean anti-SLAPP there. Point being that we want to avoid SLAPP.

If anybody has made it this deep in the thread and has curiosity left to spare, I’d like to recommend https://legaltalknetwork.com/podcasts/make-no-law/ , which is no longer active but whose episodes remain highly valuable in understanding first amendment law.

I think in theory he's still making these, but what you really want to do is subscribe to "Serious Trouble", Ken White's (same guy) podcast with Josh Barro.

Hah. I just mentioned that one in a separate reply to you.

I’d love a world where we continue to get Make No Law episodes, but I’d given up hope after it going dormant for a while.

He's better with Barro than when he's trying to make Legal Radiolab. :)

Curious: when are you guys listening to these podcasts? While driving? While out for a run or something? Certainly not when on the computer right - cause god knows I couldn’t do that kind of multitasking. I’d love to go through the archive of past Ken White podcasts but I don’t know how to make the time for it. Are you listening to them at 2x speed?

I have a 1 month old, so I suddenly have both a ton of time spent driving to the store to get supplies and a ton of time spent just sitting and rocking back and forth.

I don’t think this is the most efficient way to carve out time for podcasts :D

I have a 30 minute one-way commute to the office.
