Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Floyd Abrams (Supreme Court lawyer specializing in First Amendment)
21 Apr 2022
Floyd Abrams is a Supreme Court lawyer with a focus on First Amendment Rights. Floyd joins the Armchair Expert to discuss what the First Amendment actually says, how public members of the legal system should be, and how much people can give medical advice legally. Floyd and Dax discuss how the idea of what privacy means has changed, who can technically be sued for libel, and how the media should be protected regardless of opinion. Floyd explains what you can't say if you settle a case, how social media has altered the idea of free speech, and how he used to tell his children about court cases as bedtime stories.
