Welcome to a new season of Boom! Lawyered, which also means a new Supreme Court term is around the corner. What better way to usher that in with friend-of-the-pod Elie Mystal from the Nation joining Jess and Imani on the season premiere of the podcast?

They try to answer important questions weighing on all our minds, including:

  • Is the gig finally up for Chief Justice John Roberts and his reputation as anything other than a Republican operative?
  • Is there real momentum for meaningful Supreme Court reform?
  • What is Elie’s proposal for expansive Court reform?
