  • Summary

  • 5-4 is a podcast about how much the Supreme Court sucks. It's a progressive and occasionally profane take on the ideological battles at the heart of the Court's most important landmark cases; an irreverent tour of all the ways in which the law is shaped by politics. Visit fivefourpod.com to learn more.


    Presented by Slow Burn co-creator Leon Neyfakh, 5-4 is a production of Prologue Projects.

Informative and amazing work.

These folks know what they're talking about when it comes to case law. Yes, they have a left wing bias, but that is good, because generally so does reality.

Case episodes are amazing and a huge service. Political episodes are hack jobs.

The case covers are really great. I love listening to them and wish I had them while in law school.

The more political ones not connected to cases are extreme and biased to the left. They're so cringy its hard to listen to. They make attacks that make no sense (e.g. tell Alito to come out and say he doesn't know what the flag means but actually did do that, they just don't provide the whole statement).

Their leaps in logic are insane. A flag a wife puts up somehow shows that a justice is a fascist, with no other evidence. But pesky details like Merchan recusals? Never even possibly mentioned.
