Elizabeth chats with Nancy Maveety, author of the book Gavel and Glass: The US Supreme Court and Alcohol. Maveety uses alcohol as a lens to look at Supreme Court decisions regarding privacy, commerce, states' rights and personal liberty. And yes, of course, lots of talk about Prohibition and its residual effects on our lives today. An incredibly entertaining way to understand our judicial branch.
