Summary

"If it is gone, human nature tells you someone in power is not going to voluntarily give that power up." Trey answers a follow-up question about whether a future Senate could ever reinstate a filibuster and explains why, in practice, once the 60-vote rule is gone it is unlikely to return. He uses history, Senate precedent, and even a lesson from Sparta to show how the filibuster serves as both a shield and a limit on majority power. Trey also recommends a favorite myth-inspired novel and offers practical advice for frustrated sports fans navigating YouTube TV’s carriage dispute. Learn more about your ad choices.

ahead and start with our questions. Are you ready to get started, Trey? I think so. I mean, I don't know. I mean, my teachers in school would always ask that question.

1:33.5

Are you all ready for the test? And the answer was always no, because I hadn't prepared or studied

1:50.2

Hopefully, and hopefully there were some teachers that graded kindly.

1:53.8

I'm sure there were.

1:55.8

No, I mean, they were as nice as they could be when they explained to me why I made a C or a D on a test. No, they were, I mean, it's kind of hard to break that news to someone in a nice way. But no, they were, I mean, they were great. I mean, I was really grateful for the Ds. Well, hopefully there are no Ds on these questions. I'm sure there won't be. We'll get started.
