About this listen

5-4 is a podcast about how much the Supreme Court sucks. Hosted by Peter Shamshiri, Rhiannon Hamam, and Michael Liroff, it's a progressive and occasionally profane take on the ideological battles at the heart of the Court's most important landmark cases and an irreverent tour of all the ways in which the law is shaped by politics.

    Movie Review: Average Joe [TEASER]
    Dec 16 2025

    A movie about a dipshit who prays his way to the Supreme Court. It’s worse than you imagine.

    Trump v. Orr
    Dec 9 2025

    Trans erasure. Anti-intellectualism. Culture war. Moral panic. These are a few of the Supreme Court’s favorite things!
