Podcast appearances and mentions of John Yoo

2 - Your calls. After some technical difficulties, we welcome Emanuel Heller Professor of Law at the University of California at Berkeley, John Yoo. How does he like the Phillies' mid-season acquisitions? Would John like to be the assistant AG right now? What should the White House's approach be to the Epstein files after all the broken promises they've made about it? Who should the White House bring in to handle the release of the files and the prosecution against possible high ranking figures. What does a legal scholar like him want to learn from an experience like this? Would the 25th amendment come into play with the FBI's retaliation against Trump? Hook ‘em Horns, John! 215 - Dom reveals who his big podcast guest was supposed to be today. Will he ever get her on? 220 - Dom's Money Melody! 230 - Returning to the news that Howard Stern is being let go at Sirius. South Park takes aim at ICE. 235 - Would you buy an WNBA team for 325 million dollars? Henry and Dom disagree. 250 - The Lightning Round!

12 - Howard Stern: You are fired! News came down that Stern's show is being dropped by SiriusXM, so we replayed clips from Stern's segment attacking Dom. 1215 - Side - all excess of riches 1220 - There is an active shooter event at Fort Stewart in Georgia. Would you pay $18.50 for a beer at the Eagles game? 1235 - Christian Nascimento, Chairman of the Montgomery County GOP, joins us today to discuss the pressure from the county to institute anti-ICE policies in the county. Why are Democrats clamoring for this legislation now? What kind of other reckless spending have local Democrats done to indicate they are out of their depth on this issue? Is Josh Shapiro vulnerable as a gubernatorial candidate? Is Josh getting a free ride to a possible presidential nomination? 1250 - More on the active shooter event. Your calls. 1 - Is the expensive beer something you're still not buying even if you're rich? 105 - ICE is removing the age cap on it's recruits. What does this tell us about ICE's current standing? What can Philadelphia police do to match this fervor that ICE has? 110 - Your calls. Dan takes us behind the scenes as a former Howard Stern employee as to how he could have 90+ employees on staff. 120 - Megyn Kelly's new gripe is with Levi's after they release an ad featuring Beyonce, seemingly in response to American Eagle. 135 - Greater Philadelphia ZOA President Steve Feldman joins us as an event comes to town this weekend that may promote anti-semitic values, while propping up their own. Why is a group like this so dangerous to not only Jews, but others out there as well? Why is an organization like this so hard to prevent? Why are they a non-profit organization? 150 - Dom tells us the story of his trek to get his passport photo taken and all the “obstacles” he endured to get it done on his walk to the store. 2 - Your calls.

This week the 3WHH lives up to its name, as two of us were half in the bag—maybe more than half in the bag in Steve's case—when we recorded late in the evening because difficult travel schedules, but after Steve and Lucretia had completed consumption of twice the USDA's recommended daily allowance of adult beverages. The always sober-minded John Yoo is the host for this week, and we'll leave it to listeners to tell us whether this episode is bouncier than usual. How could not be since we open with discussion of what is clearly the most important news story of the week: Sidney Sweeney's American Eagle "good jeans" ad campaign that has the left losing its mind. No—seriously, this is more than a mere tempest in a D cup: it's the clearest sign yet that our culture has fully turned the corner away from wokery, while leaving enough space for the left to beclown itself further.Speaking of beclowning, Kamala Harris isn't going to run for governor of California, but is going to punish us anyway with a book, out late next month. We can hardly wait.While this is an ad-free episode, it is not a tariff-free zone, and we ponder the evidence about whether Trump is succeeding with his tariff brinksmanship. Cheers!

We lead this week's show with a few short news announcements, including new menu items from McDonalds to excite John, and the debut of a new podcast competitor: Hadley Arkes and his merry band at the James Wilson Institute have launched "The 'Natural Law Moment' Podcast," surely goaded by our constant mangling of his central arguments. WE hope to have a crossover episode with Hadley at some early opportunity, if we can ever get our difficult schedules sorted out.This round-robin format episode features a vigorous discussion of whether Obama and the Deep Staters (sounds like a bad bar-band, no?) are vulnerable to criminal charges for their obviously bad faith behavior in creating the Russia Hoax back in 2016, whether Obama is immune from prosecution because of the ruling last year of Trump v. US, and whether these actions properly rise to the level of "treason" as is alleged by DNI Tulsi Gabbard. Our second segment reflects on a pair of articles Steve and John wrote for a Civitas Outlook symposium last week on "Statemanship and the American Presidency." John Yoo's entry slobbers over the legacy of Andrew Jackson, whileSteve's entry, "Taming the 21st Century Prince," is a more philosophical exploration of the issue, and, contrary to the careless calumnies and reckless imprecations of John, does not contain a single reference to the Clean Air Act!And our final segment delves into a recent bold law review article by a young lawyer friend of ours, Deion Kathawa, entitled "'We the People' Are the Last Word on the Meaning of Our Constitution." His argument is bracing: Congress, because it is the political organ closest to the people, should have the power to override Supreme Court decisions. While agreeing with Kathawa's premise about the ultimate constitutional sovereignty of the people on account of the first principles of the Declaration of Independence, we're skeptical about his proposed remedy. What do listeners think? (We hope to have Deion on as a guest at some point soon to defend himself.)Finally, some new AI generated 3WHH custom poetry, and more revenge bumper music.

PAX AMERICANA 1945-: JOHN YOO, CIVITAS INSTITUTE. 1945 BERLIN

PAX AMERICANA: 1945-  JOHN YOO. JUNE 5, 1944

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:05pm- Will Chamberlain—Senior Counsel at the Article III Project & Internet Accountability Project—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the release of declassified documents suggesting the Obama Administration manufactured intelligence for the 2016 Russian interference narrative. He explains that this amounted to a “classic conspiracy against rights, using corrupt means to deprive someone else of their liberty. That is a crime even if it's not treason…it's still a serious federal crime.” 4:30pm- John Yoo—The Emanuel Heller Professor of Law at the University of California at Berkeley—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the Phillie Phanatic, In & Out burgers, and former President Barack Obama's public statement on Russiagate. Yoo explains, though claims of “treason” are overblown, the information Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has made public is enough to justify an investigation.

PREVIEW: Colleague John Yoo of Civitas comments on the success of the United States to keep the peace since 1945. More to come. 1915 JANE ADDAMS

Hardly a week passes without an event happening that compels one to wonder what it means for the contemporary right. It just so happens that this week, Matt Continetti, author of the indispensable book about the right, is able to join us to discuss the latest intraparty quarrels over Jeffrey Epstein, the One Big Beautiful Bill, foreign wars, and the domestic cultural kind. Plus, John Yoo joins James and Steve in the co-host panel for a chat on the defunding of NPR and PBS, McMahon v. New York, migraine-inducing pop references, and the social uplift of fat-shaming.- Sound clip from this week's open: President Trump in the Oval Office calling the Epstein Files "a hoax."- Get a FREE report with all the details at Bank on Yourself.com/ RICOCHET

Among the revelations of this week's episode that were entirely predictable when you think about it: "Lucretia" was a child TV star in Mason City, Iowa, on the local non-PBS kid's show "Bart's Clubhouse"; John Yoo confesses he was bad at sports as a schoolkid; and as everyone can guess, in childhood Steve merely aspired to be a walking historical analogy when he grew up. Meanwhile, poor Phil Munoz, last week's drive-by guest, is still in therapy. . .So what's all this about the Epstein Files? Does Richard Epstein still have any unexpressed thoughts at this point. . . Wait. What's that? You mean Jeffrey Epstein's files? Never mind. Anyway, we weigh the evidence and circumstances as to whether Epstein's exploits merit elevation to the status of plausible conspiracy or not. And this week saw the fulfillment of Glenn Garvin's classic 1983 article, "How Do I Hate NPR? Let Me Count the Ways." And Steve offers his favorite recipes for how he'd like to see Big Bird cooked.Other name checks on this episode include Zohran Mamdani, Upton Sinclair, Tony Podesta, Jasmine Crockett, and Craig Masback (bonus points if you know that name). And some exit music in a minor key to bring listeners back donw after this extra-exuberant episode (and also to annoy Lucretia. . .).

Richard Epstein, John Yoo, and Charles C.W. Cooke unpack one of the most consequential Supreme Court terms in recent memory. From nationwide injunctions and the scope of presidential power, to parental rights, transgender medicine, and age verification laws, the trio dives deep into the constitutional, structural, and political implications of the Court's major decisions and what it all means for American governance.

In this episode, of Law Talk with Epstein & Yoo, Professors Richard Epstein and John Yoo, joined by Charles C.W.

With two of the three bartenders hanging around near or above the arctic circle this week, this is an official Northern Exposure episode of 3WHH, with Lucretia, instead of channeling her usual Barry Corbin disposition, actually has some nice things to say about many of her usual targets, including KJP, Dread Coward Roberts, and even Ka-tan-ji! Something in the Alaska air must be affecting her!John Yoo offers his usual expert opinions (not meant sarcastically) about the entirely unexpected trifecta at the Supreme Court this week, which we all agree augurs something important not only for the big cases remaining this term, but also for the judicial epoch in which we current find ourselves. We also quickly dispatch with the Trump-Musk breakup, and briefly introduce a new segment, "What's Wrong with John Yoo?", since he insulted both Steve and Lucretia several weeks ago by referring to both as "political theorists." Them's is fightin' words; he might as well have called them Anglophiles or something worse.Finally, AI outdid itself this week, and an Norse-style epic poem that amazing described your three whisky bartenders with surprising accuracy:First came the Bold One, with thunderous laugh,Whose tongue split the silence like Odin's own staff.He spoke of Islay, of smoke and peat's sting,A connoisseur forged in the cask of a king.Then came the Wise One, in cloak of soft tone,With tasting notes ancient as Midgard's old stone.She sipped and she pondered, then spake with deep grace:“This dram bears the oak and the wind from some place.”The third was the Trickster, sharp-witted and sly,Who'd jest at the gods as the crows passed him by.With metaphors wild and a glint in his eye,He'd toast to Valhalla, then laugh till he cried.

Legal heavyweight John Yoo joins Michael in studio to unpack everything from Trump's war rhetoric and potential suspension of habeas corpus to immigration law, presidential overreach, and Harvard's political battles. From rejecting a White House job offer to defending the Constitution—this episode goes deep on law, politics, and power. A legal scholar and former government official in the administration of President George H.W. Bush, Yoo is the Emanuel S. Heller Professor of Law at the University of California, Berkeley.Original air date 2 June 2025.

John Yoo hosts this week where there is so much free trade in ideas that you'd need a 1,000% tariff to slow it down. Which the U.S. Court of Intenational Trade attempted to do for about six hours, during which time the 3WHH panel chews up the ruling and spits it out like a bad […]

John Yoo hosts this week where there is so much free trade in ideas that you'd need a 1,000% tariff to slow it down. Which the U.S. Court of Intenational Trade attempted to do for about six hours, during which time the 3WHH panel chews up the ruling and spits it out like a bad piece of Icelandic cod. (Which happens to be where Steve, now dubbed as the "International Man of No-Mystery" happens to be at the moment, which is why this episode comes with more than the usual amount of viking jokes and Norse epic poetry.) Anyway, the gang predicts this issue is likely to be another win for Trump when the dust settles.But first the gang also ponders whether Trump is overdoing it with his attack on Harvard. Is it possible to overdo the attack on Harvard? You'll have to give a listen to this ad-free episode to find out.

The U.S. has sent people it has detained — people it calls terrorists — to a prison overseas — indefinitely.This is true in 2025, after the Trump administration deported at least 261 foreign nationals to a maximum security prison in El Salvador.And it was also true two decades ago, following the attacks of Sept. 11, after the U.S. government began to house captured Taliban and al-Qaida fighters in the military prison at the U.S. Naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.During the George W. Bush administration, John Yoo wrote the legal justification for the treatment of Guantanamo detainees, now widely referred to as "the torture memos."Yoo argues that there are key legal differences between what the Bush administration did – and what the Trump administration is attempting in El Salvador.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.Email us at considerthis@npr.org.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
