My Latest Guest Appearance on First Mondays: "A Bunch of Printers"
I discuss the Kavanaugh nomination, originalism, and much more with Professors Dan Epps and Ian Samuel.
I'm pleased to have appeared again as a guest host on one of my favorite podcasts, First Mondays. In this episode, I put forth my proposal for improving judicial confirmation hearings and announced my views about Judge Kavanaugh: "He's an incredibly conscientious person, who I think has the right way of thinking of about the law, and it would be a travesty if he were not confirmed."
I got so little pushback on that point that we then spent a lot of time talking about originalism, judicial supremacy, and lots more.
You can get the episode here or listen below.

Presumably, your proposal for improving judicial confirmation involves waiting for the editor to finish reading everything before publishing...
Fixed, thanks.
