Show Notes
(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) BREAKING: If you arrest AND charge a man over a few (really funny) jokes, The Onion will probably file a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court to let you know how stupid you are.
And yes, they'll call the Justices "total Latin dorks" on Page 4.
This is Anthony Novak v. City of Parma, Ohio (2022).
