During the recording of the episode, right in the middle thereabouts, I found out he died, and so what was to be just the next in a series on Duncan v. Bonta, a final episode on VanDyke's powerful dissent to that en banc 9th Circuit case in March of this past year became a reaction to his assassination. So, therefore, this episode is in honor of Charlie Kirk. This episode includes a

Here's a link to the decision. For some reason, the text I was reading on the podcast didn't display properly on the YouBoob recording, but you can follow along
