The Bruthas N Law are back and black and therefore, despite their desire to discuss last week's confirmation hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, they were forced to tackle a more pressing issue -- Should Will Smith have slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars? And if so, how many times and should he have used a closed fist?
In their riveting quasi-legal analysis, the Bruthas embark on a broader discussion of masculinity and the proper boundaries of comedy. In Episode 66B, you will hear their discussion of what transpired during the confirmation hearings.

Episode 65 -- Out of the Pandemic and Into the (Line of)Fire
As social distancing restrictions are relaxed, geopolitical tensions have increased with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The Bruthas give their black-centric views on this international conflict and then, turn their attention domestically to discuss President Biden’s nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the U.S. Supreme Court. If confirmed, Justice Jackson will become the first African-American woman on the High Court.
That said, in a classic example of one step forward and two steps back, the Bruthas will also provide their legal analyses of two recent cases in which police officers were exonerated for their parts in the shooting of an autistic man’s caretaker and the brutal killing of Breonna Taylor.
