    As always a great show, smart and fun. Marked by David's reflections on his trip, the people there and the people here - if only people would pause and appreciate the things we take for granted here, rather than lose themselves in the depths of yeah...with gratitude to you both.

    David, I am tired of your pat use of “pandemic” to refer to a not-very-deadly epidemic. IMO it’s a scare word that justified a lot of silliness (hand sanitizer?) and worse.

    Great pod, as usual, but David it's kin-zhal not kin-zal.

    David, thank you so much for your comments on the war. It is very sobering and timely. We are in the midst of a provincial vote here in Alberta, and I have been thankful to see the courtesy of the average neighbor, and distressed to see the rage of some people online. Love your neighbors, folks!

    "How is the only thing that matters!" says Sarah, thus proving beyond all doubt that she is the Lawful Neutral counterpart to David's Lawful Good.

    Every time "copyright" goes before SCOTUS I grow more confident in my opinion that ownership of ideas and concepts is a nonsensical idea, and trying to build on that foundation is impossible.

    This is one of the best podcasts I've ever listened to in my entire life. Very inspiring and informative to hear from David about his trip to Ukraine and Sarah and David's legal analysis with the copyright case was fascinating. As a professional writer I found the topic to be far from purely academic!

    David, not sure if you read these comments anymore, but thank you for reporting from Ukraine and good for you for going. I do pray regularly for the people of Ukraine and I will continue to keep them in my prayers. Slava Ukraini.

    Sarah: “how is the only thing that matters” - that might be the most conservative (in the Thomas Sowell constrained tradition sense of the term) thing I’ve ever heard you say!

    While all AO episodes are very good, this one is particularly outstanding. David’s telling of his visit to Kiev was informative and moving, and the discussion of the surprising alliances among Justices in the Warhol case and beyond was so interesting. And being an ancient / retired IP attorney who was in law school at Georgetown in the time of Watergate, I enjoyed the copyright discussion, the mention of the Plumbers, and look forward to what you have to say about the patents case; those subjects are often thought dull (even by the Justices), but if anyone can breathe life into them it is the AO team!

    Ms. Isgur, To classify the justices on Supreme Court, you can add a Z axis. Instead of pigeon holing the justices into rectangles (have you read the science fiction book Flat Lands), you can put them in cubes which for sure will be more roomy and better for the pigeons. Given that deep learning and large language models are all the rage, you can take a page out of that book and use 300 dimensions.
