Gail Heriot, professor at University of San Diego School of Law and commissioner on the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, joins the podcast to explain how legal changes made to the Civil Rights Act in the 1990s forced radical politics and easy offense out of academia and directly into corporate America. Gail convincingly explains how concepts like microaggressions, racial identity politics, and respecting the 87 genders took off in the '90s thanks to a combination of malincentives written into the law, bad court decisions, and a hefty dose of private sector CYA. She gives Inez an alternative explanation for the origins and timeline of wokeness.--High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.

This week, Ted Frank joins the podcast. Frank is the director of litigation at the conservative public-interest law firm he founded, Hamilton Lincoln Law Institute, and has argued and won cases in front of the Supreme Court as well as several federal courts of appeals.Stepman and Frank talk through the legal and public opinion contours of the Jordan Neely case in New York, and set it in context of the rising crime and disorder in American cities and the ideological commitment against enforcing the law in many DAs' offices. They also discuss the recent series of stories on the ethics of the Supreme Court and how they’re being used to delegitimize the judicial branch and pave the way for court packing and even refusing to obey court decisions.--High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.

Heather Mac Donald rejoins High Noon podcast to discuss her critical book When Race Trumps Merit: How the Pursuit of Equity Sacrifices Excellence, Destroys Beauty, and Threatens Lives.

On the 100th episode of High Noon, Emily Jashinsky is back on the pod to take a step back and think about some of the news items that have been firehosing the media for the last month. Emily and Inez discuss some of the positive and negative possibilities regarding Tucker Carlson’s departure from Fox News and what it might do to the media landscape. They also dive back into the uncynical world of the early 2000s, and wonder whether the same limitless impulse that put Americans on the moon and led MLK Jr. to his optimism about the “arc of history” bending towards justice might have met its end with the now-obvious naïveté of George W. Bush’s failed crusade to rid all cultures around the world of tyranny. Finally, the ladies make an attempt to have a real discussion — not another circular fight about gun control and “mental health” — about the school shooting phenomenon, why this particular outlet for “American Devils” is the curse of our particular couple decades, and what, if anything, can actually be done about it.--High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.

Margot Cleveland, senior legal correspondent at The Federalist and adjunct professor at Notre Dame, joins the podcast to expose the scandal no one is talking about: the lawfare being waged against lawyers who step out of line politically. Margot outlines how lawyers who worked for Donald Trump, or even on behalf of controversial issues like abortion or gun control, are being targeted for professional sanction, as well as how the politicization of the law and cutting off half the country from the mainstream legal world impacts everyone else.--High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.
