There's no cameras allowed in the courtroom. But if there were, let's just say... there wouldn't have been a lot of other news coverage this week. It's the case we've all been waiting for: whether Donald Trump can be disqualified from running for President.

In historic rulings, state supreme courts in both Colorado and Maine have barred Trump from being on the ballot. Will the Supreme Court intervene? And how will they rule on former President Trump's federal election subversion case? All that and more, this episode.

We’re back to explore the recent corruption headlines thumping Justice Thomas, his wife, and a major new headliner: Justice Alito! We dive into the billionaire trips, the “non-profit,” and Justice Alito’s “ethic schmethics” response to Congress. We also have updates on the praying football coach after his Supreme Court win (spoiler alert: he lost his football games). Finally, Dave Ball wraps us up with an overview of two upcoming SCOTUS cases: assessing the gun rights of domestic abusers and discrimination in employment transfers. So buckle up, leave a review, and come leave mean comments on TikTok @twoballsonecourt.  This episode was brought to you by "Count Cashula -- The Bribery Vampire," and other Supreme Court mascots generated by ChatGPT.

Well, we’ve made it through another year of Supreme Court Decisions. This episode, we’ve had time to go through all several hundred pages of reading for these landmark cases. Thankfully, we have guest analyst Elle Woods to help us break it all down.  (And if you think she sounds not like Elle Woods of Legally Blonde but legendary actress Annalisa Cochrane of Cobra Kai and NBC Peacock’s “One of Us Is Lying,” we have… no idea what you’re talking about)

In the final day of decision season 2023, the Supreme Court has released decisions for the Biden student debt relief cases, as well as for the 303 Creative web designer who refused to make wedding websites for gay couples. We'll have more episodes coming soon analyzing all of the 2023 court decisions including metrics and guest analysts. But for now, we hope you'll spend many years into the future being depressed with us about what this 6-3 conservative court does to our society.

The Supreme Court voted 6-3 this morning to ban the consideration of race in college admissions. The Court's conservative majority, unsurprisingly but still shockingly, said that it was racist to consider race in the admissions process. The Supreme Court did not touch legacy admits in college admissions. We will see what this means moving forward for colleges that still want to achieve a diverse campus environment.

This episode, fresh off her submersible news withdrawal, true-crime expert Lisa Ball joins the podcast to share her insight on the Supreme Court's crime cases from this week. Tune in for discussion on an international Russian hit job, an "adult adoption" immigration scam, and a shocking swing from the court to side with Biden on US v. Texas. Also, things get a bit chaotic when John and Zack realize they took a selfie with someone who went on the submersible and lived?? Last, don't forget to leave our podcast a rating if you enjoy :)

This morning in the Alabama gerrymandering case Allen v Milligan, the Supreme Court ruled that the Alabama’s congressional districts were racistly gerrymandered in violation of the voting rights act. This case had our first big swing votes of the cycle, with Roberts and Kavanaugh siding with the liberals. We'll talk about what this means for other gerrymandering cases this cycle, and most importantly, we'll talk about the sweeping and horrifying judicial overreach of the Supreme Court in deciding that poop-themed Jack Daniel's parody dog toys cannot be freely made.

The Supreme Court released 3 decisions this morning concerning labor strike protections, stock misinformation, and medicare fraud. John managed to wake up in-time for this livestream, though his speed-reading skills could use a liiiiittle work. No major blockbuster decisions today, but the Supreme Court still has THIRTY cases to announce by the end of June. Expect high-stakes livestreams in the coming weeks! And of course, PLEASE leave a review for our podcast on Spotify/Apple Podcasts! Just a quick star-rating can help us out so much :)

Much earlier than expected, the Supreme Court just released its decisions for the cases Google v Gonzalez and Twitter v Taamneh, two of the largest cases concerning “big tech” in decades. For this episode, we did something a little different and brought on tech expert Jess Miers from the Chamber of Progress to share insight on what these cases meant for the future of tech policy, and what it means to “nerd harder.” Tune in to hear us two old goats try to understand algorithms and the internet. More for decision season coming soon.
