Most everyone in the legal space knows Ken White — better known as Popehat — and if you don’t, you have some catching up to do. White, a First Amendment litigator and criminal defense attorney at L.A.’s Brown White & Osborn LLP, just launched a new podcast series on the Legal Talk Network (the home of Above the Law’s unruly Thinking Like A Lawyer) taking deep dives into First Amendment history.
In the first episode, Ken speaks with Professor Shawn Peters of the University of Wisconsin-Madison and author of “Judging Jehovah’s Witnesses: Religious Persecution and the Dawn of the Rights Revolution” about Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire.
Keeping Law School Accessible When Federal Loans Fall Short

And in the second episode, he talks with Mary Beth Tinker about her Supreme Court case and continuing work in defense of student speech. He’s also joined by Frank LoMonte of the Student Press Law Center.
