I was once a fan of this show but it’s basically turned into boilerplate liberal talking points. Yawn.

Like the title, great podcast with two guys having fun and talking about the Supreme Court. Facebook group is great too.

Love this podcast! Not a lawyer and have no legal aspirations, however this podcast is so thoroughly enjoyable. I’ve been a listener for about four years or so and looking forward to more. I’ve learned a ton and laughed a lot too. Thanks dudes!

Randomly found this pod, I’ll share to my friends and followers. How fkg fun is it to listen to these two dudes taking law! 💙it!

Tried to find a nonpartisan podcast on the constitution. All was well for 6 months until the latest episode which accuses Republican senators of questioning the recent Supreme Court appointee to specifically gain favorability with the Q anon crowd (with 0 evidence). Had a fan of the show. Just lost one. Disappointing.

Randomly stumbled upon these guys and this is a surprisingly easy and fun listen. I have no law background and still love their law banter, and the non sequiturs, “NFL quarterbacks look like giant babies with diapers on.”

Love their banter and the way they break down these complex opinions for anyone to understand.

I found the detached hair-splitting

I really enjoy listening to the conversations. I wish the audio was better (I find myself straining to hear some of it, particularly when driving). It would be great if this technical flaw could be improved 🤞

I am a non-lawyer fan of the Supreme Court. I am enough of a nerd to listen to most oral arguments. I can grasp most of the concepts but when Brett and Nazim cover a case they provide a more clear understanding for me. Plus I get to learn about foods. Like right now for example I am craving a Butterfinger. So thanks for that.

I don’t know how you’re expecting to draw in new listeners when they have to sit through 15 minutes of you talking about food before hearing anything informative. This feels like bad college radio. I don’t care about you, and I don’t care about your favorite pasta. Get to the MEAT.

Was excited for the information but the first episode I tuned into, I realized 7 min had gone by and they were still talking about pasta, and not in any foodie informational way, but pure opinion. I think it’s still going, gotta be at ten min and still pasta. I have learned nothing. I appreciate the lightheartedness. Not for me. There are a million legal podcasts out there. This one is not one of them.

I have recently tried to learn more about the Supreme Court. This podcast does explore topics that the Supreme Court covers, but even better is the banter between the hosts. Very fun podcast and now my favorite! At first I thought, why do I care about these guys’ favorite juices? A few episodes later, I’m keenly interested in their favorite fruit pies. Great job!

This is a podcast

These guys talk about pie. They argue about ice cream or was it gelato? Music and movies. They go on and on about their Instagram page and comments people leave on it. I think I know everything about both of their diets and food preferences. Lots and lots of information about dinosaurs. Oh oh and they talk about Supreme Court cases every once and a while. I can’t wait for Sunday.

Easily my top 3, one of those I always listen to as soon as it pops up in my feed. Great show if you like the law, food and guy-love. Out in the middle of the desert of Tucson, Arizona, these guys cure my homesickness with their Philly-flavored quick, witty and sassy banter (even tho Nazem is a Citizen of the World), especially with their occasional mention of Wawa! The legal minutia is great too and relatable to laymen such as myself.

5/5 learn about the supreme court and the banter is good. Not incredibly serious so it doesnt feel as dry as some of the other educational podcasts but know there will be a lot of asides

Great podcast for learning about the supreme court in a palpable way

Good podcast but volume is too low!! I listen on max volume and it isn’t very loud

I love Bret and his alter ego he records with a voice synthesizer. This podcast has made me a more bitter person and I love them for it. Thanks!

I am a 1st year practicing, just passed the bar lawyer and it’s like the only part of law school I liked in this podcast without the rest of the B.S. plus keeps me kinda in the know regarding the supreme court without feeling like more research I’m taking home and not getting paid for. Yes, I wrote a horrible run on sentence review. You only get good grammar if you pay me.

I’ve been listening to this podcast for almost 2 years and finished all the old episodes. I wish there were more available right now. Like the tangents and the law parts. It’s serious in one sense but not like other scotus podcasts where every decision feels like the end of the world. I guess because of this it calms me down even when I am stressed for other stuff in my life. Would recommend to anyone who’s interested in the law but do not like lawyers. Le

As a former lawyer who loves following SCOTUS this pod is awesome. Brett and Nazim are funny, smart, and have great chemistry. Their breakdowns and predictions are thoughtful and fascinating, but I also enjoy their banter and tangents. Subscribe!

Love the swearing and banter. Makes the lectures and the seriousness of the law less scary.

Don’t like swearing. But love the bantering.

I discovered this podcast a few weeks ago and have since binged all the episodes. The hosts are funny and relatable and present the information in a way that make court cases approachable. Other reviews have criticized the podcast for getting off topic or for not providing a deep enough dive into the details of the cases. If you are looking for an all-encompassing, super intense dive into Supreme Court cases, this is not the podcast you’re looking for. This podcast makes the Court approachable, exciting, and fun while also being informative. Definitely worth a listen!!

This is a enjoyable, not to serious, podcast on SCOTUS cases, albeit left of center.

Listen, here’s the deal. I’ve read the Reddit theory, and while I have no idea how that person figured it out, they did. I’ve known Brett since high school, where his nickname was Nazim (he loved the poet Nazim Hikmet). He records the Brett parts first, listens to it, writes the Nazim script, records the Nazim part, then edits. It’s honestly impressive. To me this show is like watching a tag team match between The Megapowers and two sharks that attack in tandem. Five stars.

I really wanted to like this podcast. I wanted to hear about law. The first episode I listened to the first 25 minuets was about doughnuts and Wahlburgers. I don’t think I will try another episode. If anyone has better Supreme Court or law podcasts let me know some how.

5 minutes in and we’re still talking about where the hosts buy their underwear. I just don’t care about that.

Summary: This podcast focuses on the host’s feelings and opinions rather than facts and quotes from the court cases. Also it has an obvious left leaning bias. I’m not a right leaner, but I am an independent capable of thinking and not have opinions shoved in my face... or ears. Long Summary: I was hoping I find a good podcast that talked about Supreme Court Cases in an unbiased way. Both hosts spend a lot of time going off topic in the beginning of the episode and then constantly talk about their opinions and feelings. I am not interested in the host’s opinions and feelings. I want to background of the case, oral arguments, and history behind why the justices might have giving the ruling they did. These hosts do not have a good knowledge of the legislation and go on a rant of their opinions. I’ve listened to SCOTUS 101 and it is a much better podcast. Supposedly right leaning but I have yet to notice it. Their focus on opinions is minimal and they rarely go off topic.

Love these guys. Good podcast. It’s like having a discussion about the supreme court with your friends - ya know, if your friends actually knew anything about the supreme court. Sure, yeah, there is some off topic content, but it’s fun, there are plenty of sources to get bone dry law information if that’s your thing.

I attend law school and love Constitutional Law. I love podcasts that discuss the Supreme Court. This podcast is the best! Two lawyers talking about the Supreme Court, who are both hilarious and interesting! A must listen to!!!!

I fell upon this podcast by accident. As an incoming law school student these conversations are thought provoking. I’ve been working on law since 2007 and as the years past my interest in law has growth. So this podcast was right up my alley. Brett and Nizam’s dislike for law makes me laugh the most.

Perfect blend of useful information, playful sarcasm, and random knowledge! Loving it🤟🏼

Hilarious and informative in equal measure, Citizens Guide to the Supreme Court has quickly become one of my MUST LISTEN podcasts. The hosts are incredibly eloquent without ever tipping over into pretentiousness. They excel at making complex legal issues easy to understand by zeroing in on the core of the matter’s practical repercussions. Plus, it’s laugh out loud funny. Post-Script: More stories about the aquarium, please.

Brett and Nazim do a good job. I get a dose of what’s going on with the Supreme Court with a dose of banter. I read another review that said it was too much banter, but I’m ok with their chatter. The guys aren’t annoying, and I share their interests (football, food, and I’m a mom to a baby and toddler) so I find the banter suitable to my life. As to the meat of the podcast, I am able to absorb what is happening in the Supreme Court without needing to read decisions myself. Five stars, two thumbs up.

The two co-hosts are super knowledgeable and informative about the law. The only downside is that they get distracted too much when talking.

Great fun Supreme Court podcast

Out of the 45 minute podcast. They might talk about the law for maybe 30 minutes. Which is perfect for this podcast, it’s for those interested in the law but not that deep. I want to hear about the recent case, but also about was Brett has been doing with his life recently. Which is exactly what i get from this podcast.

I expected serious debate or at least informed conversation. This has neither.

Wonderful banter on the psychology of pro wrestling. The law talk is pretty informative too.

Totally agree with other reviewers, the hosts are way too self-indulgent with their inane and boring and non-relevant chit chat. The first 10 minutes of the one episode I started - I wanted to give it a fair chance - had the host giving goofy and boring commentary about how his toddler son didn’t want to go to an aquarium over the weekend. DONE. Pressed stop and Unsubscribe even before I could get to the substance.

I listen to a lot of SCOTUS and law podcasts. I really enjoy CGSC. The hosts have their biases—though not nearly as strong as those of the SCOTUS 101 podcast. To be honest, I mostly listen to the podcast for the banter. I've also learned a lot about the law and SCOTUS from the podcast. But Brett and Nazim aren't as efficient and meticulous in their discussions as I would like, but I can get that stuff elsewhere. Still, I'm going to continue listening every Sunday. Also, Brett is often wrong in the opinions he holds, especially when it comes to food and movies.

If you came to the this podcast with the idea of learning about the Supreme Court and the cases it adjudicates, don’t bother. As an educated lay person with a working knowledge of the Court, this cast offers zero insight into how the Court decides cases. There is precious little law discussed. Forget about hearing anything about precedent or statutes or law basically. The opinions are of the quality that you can get chatting with the guy next to you at a bar and you figure out in two minutes has just the shallowest knowledge of the topic being discussed. Banter is painful to listen to. I listened through three episodes hoping it would get better. It didn’t. The hosts are ill-prepared. They just don’t try very hard and don’t know very much.

I enjoy the legal discussions but would enjoy them a lot more if the hosts were more authentic and could lose their internal audience. Especially the guy with the good mic. Just talk as if no one was listening - such a simple concept that distinguishes the the best in all walks of life for those who can actually accomplish it. This podcast falls into the category of two friends who are funny to each other and one day decide that it would be funny to others, too, and go on to produce a podcast that’s coated with a layer of ‘listen to how funny we are.’ Totally correctable and there’s a lot of good meat to this. I’d just love to see it hit its potential. And get a good mic for the other dude!!!

Brett and Nazim are like uncles that you want to be your best friends. Whoever said that their banter is what turned them away from the podcast is a fool! The boys banter makes everything more interesting and easier to listen to- the comic relief makes the podcast what it is. This is the best podcast around, if you don’t agree you’re playing yourself. 10/5 stars!!!

Two smart guys talk about Supreme Court decisions before they come down, give predictions based on their humble but informed opinions. I still give it a five despite the inside jokes that I don't get and giggly stuff that is usually not even smirk worthy. To their credit, they say when the substantive discussion begins. Just fast forward a few minutes.

A good way to learn about the law in a common sense way and hear opinions about what the law should be.

They have insightful and informative discussion on Supreme Court cases, mixed with funny and enjoyable banter between the hosts. I love the back-and-forth between the two hosts, whether they are talking sandwiches or law, they manage to disagree but remain respectful of each others' opinions, I cannot recommend this podcast enough!
