Strict Scrutiny - Pineapple & Rage

In our final summer episode, it’s a reproductive rights and justice block party (or wake, depending on your perspective). Leah, Melissa, and Kate discuss the reproductive rights and justice cases that made their way to the Supreme Court, the cases that almost made their way to the Court, and the cases that might make their way to the Court soon. They also point out how many of the Court’s cases have implications for reproductive justice before walking through some recent reproductive justice litigation involving the Supreme Court bar.

The Daily Signal - #538: How the Sexual Revolution Gave Us Identity Politics

"If you ask the question, ‘Who am I?’ — up until the sexual revolution, that was not a hard question to answer," says Mary Eberstadt, author of the new book, "Primal Screams." She joins the podcast to discuss identity politics, the "pre-rational emotional expressionism" present in our political discussions today, and more.


We also cover these stories:

• Walmart is changing its gun policies.

• Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says he could schedule a vote on gun control legislation if the White House expresses support.

• Sen. Ted Cruz and activist Alyssa Milano are planning to have a meeting on gun control, after a series of tweets.

The Gist - The Big Power of Right-Wing Radio

On The Gist, how hurricanes are like racism. 

In the interview, talk radio has shaped so much of our political discourse, often in ways we don’t even realize. Brian Rosenwald sought to figure out just how much influence it’s had and condensed it all into his new book Talk Radio’s America: How an Industry Took Over a Political Party That Took Over the United States. He’s here to talk with Mike about Rush Limbaugh’s early years, the outsized importance of Roger Ailes, and where this leaves us today.

In the Spiel, president Trump’s pre-hurricane golfing is the last thing we should be worrying about.

Reset with Sasha-Ann Simons - CPS Teacher Returns To Classroom After Stint In Academia

In his new book, Chicago Public Schools teacher Gregory Michie writes about what it was like to return to teach in the same middle school in Chicago’s Back of the Yards neighborhood where he began his career after more than a decade as an education professor.

Morning Shift digs into what’s different about the teaching profession this decade compared with the late 1990s and how Michie navigates his role as a white teacher in a school that’s almost exclusively made up of black and brown students.

The Intelligence from The Economist - No safety in numbers: America’s immigration raids

Workplace raids catch many undocumented migrants in one place. But they do nothing to tackle the criminal element that the Trump administration has so vilified. Many of the 2,000 Turkish citizens that fought alongside jihadists in Syria now want to return; the whole region is struggling with its expat extremists. And, a “culinary balance of trade” reveals which cuisine has most conquered the world’s menus.
