    Request dedicating a portion of an episode to explaining the mechanics of how cases/arguments are presented at SCOTUS. I guess we could watch CSPAN now, but I'd get more out of watching a court session of CSPAN having heard a tutorial.

    Great sitcom analysis and agree that Friends was not a sitcom. But no Scrubs love? Nary a mention? Paging Dr Cox for a rant.

    Perhaps you're both too young for Newhart (both shows) and All in the Family? But to get them, they had to be consumed within the cultural stew of their time.

    I am consistently amazed that I enjoy this show so much as a non lawyer but maybe I am a legal geek (apologies to geeks).
    The two of you are great bring smarts and geeky insights on both sides but then can get on opposite sides to make it super interesting (did I say super?)

    Keep it up I talk to everyone I get get to listen about the podcast and the topics.

    Thank you!

    As an appellate lawyer myself, I want to complement you on your discussion of Our Lady of Guadalupe. What a nice job you did laying out the issues in an engaging back and forth where each of you took a side. A model of smart, civil discourse!

    Thank you David French for setting that heathen Isgur straight on religious freedom :-)
    Also maybe more a half hour drama than a comedy but Wonder Years is a great show that holds up well. While the wife and daughter watch Little House on the Prairie I suggest that with your son. My 9-year old son just finished reading all the Prairie books so now the family is watching all the shows together.

    Idioms: "Avoid that like the plague" has taken on a whole new meaning for me.

    Ministerial Qualifications: Religious liberties aside, I have seen this most abused with regard to the tax advantage of the ministers housing allowance exclusion. Part-time children's ministers and Private School teachers who's "calling" and ordination is solely for the tax benefit. Some denominations require more work than others.

    I am deeply, deeply disappointed that Curb didn't even get a mention in the Mount Rushmore discussion.

      Definitely a lack of enthusiasm. But you know HBO is not TV...Anyway, I think their lack of Seinfeld support was a sign that CYE would be AWOL.
