    #189: Samuel Chase (MD) - The "Extremely Irregular" Signer and Supreme Court Justice
    Dec 8 2025

    Not all signers were universally well-regarded as calm moderates. Hear how Samuel Chase, a lawyer and a bunch of other "jobs," was known as an "extremely irregular" signer. He would serve as Supreme Court Justice and get caught up in one of the most partisan episodes in early American history.
