OA238: Merry Christmas! (With Matt Donnelly)

Today’s special holiday episode features a long interview with Matt Donnelly of the Ice Cream Social podcast!  Matt talks with the guys about growing up the son of a lawyer and the grandson of a judge… and along the way the guys talk about the Supreme Court, the state of the law, and have a ton of fun.

Integrated in the episode is an “Are You A Cop?”-style segment in which Andrew explains that no, Brett Kavanaugh did not “vote with the liberals” in an abortion case.  You’ll figure out all you need to know about the Supreme Court’s denial of certiorari in Gee v. Planned Parenthood and Andersen v. Planned Parenthood… and maybe you’ll learn something about newly-minted “swing” justice John Roberts along the way.

After the lengthy interview with Matt, it’s time for the answer to Thomas (and Matt) Take The Bar Exam #106 regarding judicial notice of the difference between Kansas City and Chicago.  As always, remember to follow our Twitter feed (@Openargs) and like our Facebook Page so that you too can play along with #TTTBE!
