In this episode of the podcast "Consider the Constitution," host Dr. Katie Crawford-Lackey discusses Article III of the US Constitution, which established the judicial branch. She is joined by Dr. Lauren Bell, a political science professor and former fellow at the United States Supreme Court. They discuss the brevity of Article III compared to other articles, the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court, and the relationship between federal and state courts. They also delve into the significance of the Marbury v. Madison case, in which Chief Justice John Marshall established the power of judicial review. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the current state of the Supreme Court and the challenges it faces in maintaining public trust and legitimacy.
