On the fourteenth episode of The Constitutionalist, Shane Leary and Dr. Benjamin Kleinerman discuss Federalist no. 1, and the way in which our politics have moved away from interests and towards symbolism and ideology at the expense of unity. We'd like to issue a correction for this episode. During our discussion of the FDA, it was mistakenly said that two of the last forty FDA Commissioners had not worked for Big Pharma following their tenure with the FDA. The intended statistic was two over the last forty years. While we could have removed the incorrect statement in post or rerecorded the section, we believe that podcasting as a medium is first and foremost conversational, and as such, a conversation should leave room for errors which are otherwise carefully controlled for in more sterile informational environments.
