## Resource

The Supreme Court isn't the ideological battleground you think it is—it's a workplace, complete with egos, alliances, and quirks that shape the law in surprising ways. First, Sarah Isgur pulls back the curtain on the very human dynamics behind the bench. Then, journalist Rebecca Nagle shows what those decisions look like on the ground, tracing the generations-long fight for justice on Native land. 🎁 Save 20% on a Next Big Idea Club membership when you used code PODCAST at ⁠nextbigideaclub.com⁠ ✉️ Get big ideas in your inbox with our daily newsletter.
