Understanding the Bill of Rights

You’ve heard people scream, “I know my rights!”—but do they?
In this episode, we cut through the internet nonsense, TikTok lawyers, and sovereign citizen BS to break down what the Bill of Rights actually protects—and what it doesn’t.

We’ll expose the difference between real constitutional rights and everyday laws, dismantle the “ignorance of the law” myth, and explain why the government can’t just make up rules after the fact.

We also take a blunt look at the rise of self-entitled pseudo-legal nonsense infecting social media—and why it's not just wrong, it’s dangerous.

If you want to understand your rights without the sugarcoating—this is your episode.

Search and Seizure: Automobile Exception

In this episode, we break down Street Cop Training—what it is, who it serves, and why it sparks both praise and controversy in the law enforcement world. From the tactics it teaches to the mindset it encourages, we look at what makes it stand out in police training circles.

We also dig into the Automobile Exception, one of the most debated carve-outs in Fourth Amendment law. What does it mean for vehicle searches, where did it come from, and how has it evolved through case law? We’ll unpack real-world scenarios, the constitutional tightrope officers walk, and how this exception plays into modern policing.

If you’ve ever wondered how training collides with constitutional limits, this one’s for you.

Most Americans believe the only court that matters is the one with a gavel. But in reality, the Court of Public Opinion hands down verdicts long before juries ever convene. In this episode, we’ll dive into how media spectacle and social outrage shaped the Kyle Rittenhouse saga, the O.J. Simpson trial, and the Amber Guyger case—exposing the uncomfortable truth that public perception can trump evidence. We’ll also call out the pundits (I’m looking at you, Nancy Grace) who fan the flames of fear and fury, and show you how to separate sound legal analysis from sensationalist noise. 

Most people think staying silent automatically protects them. It doesn’t. In this episode of What You Think Doesn’t Matter, I break down the real rules of Miranda—why silence alone isn’t enough, why traffic stops don’t trigger Miranda, and how cops use timing and psychology to get you talking before you even realize it. And yes, I’m calling out the TikTok lawyers and keyboard warriors who keep spreading dangerous myths about your rights. 

Search and Seizure: When Can the Cops be Nosey?

You’ve probably heard it a hundred times: never let the cops search you, your car, or your house. Sounds good in theory—but the reality is, it doesn’t always work that way. There are times when you don’t have a choice, and there are times when saying no won’t change a damn thing. Pretending otherwise is a quick way to set yourself up for a rude awakening in court. 

Protected vs Unprotected Speech: Know the Difference

Everyone talks about “free speech,” but most people don’t actually understand what that means. The First Amendment doesn’t protect every word that comes out of your mouth, and pretending otherwise will get you in trouble fast. In this episode, we break down the Supreme Court’s clear line in the sand — the “Big Four” categories of speech that are not protected under the Constitution. We’ll also separate public restrictions from private ones, because there’s a huge legal difference between the government silencing you and your employer deciding you crossed the line.

If you want to stop confusing opinion with law, and actually know where your rights begin and end, this is the episode you need to hear.
