Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    I started listening a few years back but the show is so good, I just try and listen occasionally to new ones as there's not too many of them. Such an educational podcast/show and done in such a brilliant manner. Can't recommend it enough to people.

    Do you have a favorite episode? Mine may be "Emergence"... absolutely love the discussion of order coming from disorder and they discuss it on such a small basis, but it can be applied to the largest things in the universe.

    Every single one is perfect is hard to pick one but I like a lot parasites and numbers.
