Although I'll never stop referring to one financial podcast as the "sociopaths' pod", I also follow both right- & left-wing legal analysis, & I deeply appreciate the insights I get from the former.

There *are* coherent right-wing arguments for many legal positions we tend rail against because the consequences of a verdict are so blatantly bad, especially amid far-right culture--and listening to classic conservative proceduralism often reveals the deeper textual problems that need to be undone.

(More on this with tomorrow's article, but for now, I'm just expressing gratitude for the important practice of leaving one's info silo, and listening to many sources.

It is incredibly important that we question our assumptions and operate with caution whenever receiving data that affirms what we already believe to be true. Always interrogate first impressions: at worst, you'll end up better prepared to field doubts and counterpoints to solid intel; at best, you might learn something new!)
