A special thanks to Robb Nelson, our friend Cryssy who works here, and everyone else who works here at the Stuhr Museum for their help with this video. If you ever get a chance to visit this place, I highly recommend it. Or if you can't visit here, visit a museum in your hometown. Yep, your hometown probably has a museum that you didn't know about. Thanks for watching.

#supremecourt #supremecourtbriefs #scotus
Lochner v. New York, believe it or not, has never officially been overturned, and remains one of the most controversial Supreme Court decisions of all time. The case marked a shift in how the Court began to interpret laws that regulated working conditions. After this, the Court increasingly struck down both state and federal laws that regulated labor. More broadly speaking, this case marked the beginning of a period that lasted more than three decades in which the Court generally erred more on the side of individual freedom instead of government power. In fact, historians today even call this period the “Lochner Era.” Crazy enough, the Lochner Era overlapped with the Progressive Era, a time when reformers themselves worked overtime to get rid of social and economic injustice. These reformers viewed the Lochner decision as one that simply just favored employers over employees.

#voting #rankedchoicevoting #government
Here in the United States we mostly have plurality voting for elections, even though most Americans agree that it’s absolutely not the best way to do elections. (turns) Wait, what’s that, you don’t remember what plurality voting is?
Plurality voting is when a citizen only gets to vote for ONE candidate, and the candidate who gets the most votes, aka a plurality, wins the election. EVEN IF THEY DON’T GET THE MAJORITY OF VOTES.
If you want to learn more about why I think plurality voting sucks, check out this video here. I swear, all I do anymore is promote my own videos in my own videos. What is happening to me.
Anyway, organizations like The Center for Election Science, Fairvote, and The Equal Vote Coalition have been promoting better ways to vote for years. While all three organizations have talked trash about plurality voting, they all favor different solutions. The Center for Election Science tends to favor approval or score voting, Fairvote tends to favor ranked choice voting, and The Equal Vote Coalition is all about STAR voting.

England and Scotland
Two bordering countries part of a larger country called the United Kingdom, a country that has been pretty influential on the world over the past 300 years or so.
Both on the island of Great Britain, the ninth-biggest island in the world.
England and Scotland are the two most well-known and visited countries in the UK, and maybe by the end of this video you’ll have an opinion about which one you think is better.
A special shout out to Ralph from Osbers Gaming, who is from Scotland, for collaborating with me for this video. He did the history portion, in case you didn’t notice. Be sure to subscribe to Osbers Gaming! It was also great to meet him in person when we were in Edinburgh last spring. Oh yeah, my family and I actually went on vacation to both England and Scotland! A lot of the footage you saw was from stuff I shot while we were there. So which is better? England or Scotland? Let me know down below. Oh, and I also have an Edinburgh and Glasgow Compared video planned in the near future, so look for that.

Because the United States has had the world’s biggest economy going back all the way arguably to the 1890s, that means this video kind of also went over every recession and depression in WORLD history since then. “But Mr. Beat, what about the Panic of 1792??” You know what, FORGET the Panic of 1792! (gasp!) And forget Panic at the Disco! They were an overrated band anyway. But seriously, obviously historians say there were more recessions than I mentioned.
And I’ll end this video with these thoughts. Recessions are pretty much inevitable. I don’t think we’ll ever be able to fully prevent them. In fact, we may even be in one right now and not even realize it yet. At least, certain YouTube channels have been telling us that for a while now.
And recessions suck. Like, they REALLY suck. For all of us.
Recessions mean you and I maybe not being able to afford to eat. Recessions mean more people desperate on the streets. Recessions mean more political instability, which often means more chaos…more violence….more wars. And depressions? Heck, depressions are so bad that it has historically led us to turn to FACISM as a solution. Yep, if we’re desperate enough, we’ll often put up with a ruthless dictator as long as we have access to clean drinking water.
And by golly I hope this is obvious by now. Learning about what caused past recessions is absolutely CRITICAL for not PREVENTING future recessions because remember, recessions are pretty much inevitable but learning about what caused past recessions is critical for helping us DEAL WITH and RESPOND TO future recessions. For the love of humanity, let’s stop making the same mistakes.

In re Gault was a huge case because it expanded 14th Amendment protections to juvenile defendants. Kids must get the same rights as adults! It dramatically changed the entire juvenile system across the country. After this case, judges could no longer randomly and unfairly give out punishments at juvenile delinquency proceedings. For the first time in American history, the Court clearly said kids deserve constitutional protections, too.

Here's an annotated script with footnotes:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1G_cu8km7d8YROE9t1EA8CC5G2481Ym-I00RBncZNOfY/edit?usp=sharing
The Vietnam War is arguably the most controversial military intervention in American history. It was objectively disastrous for everyone involved, and ever since, nearly every film about it has been at least somewhat critical of it. Even We Were Soldiers (2002), which offers a more nuanced view of the war, does well at portraying the futility of it. But while most films critical of it use drama to expose its moral quandaries (Platoon clip), one film stands out for often using humor instead (clip). Really dark humor. Here’s everything you need to know about the classic anti-war film, Full Metal Jacket.
Not only are there so many freaking war movies out there, but there’s A LOT of actually pretty good ones. Full Metal Jacket definitely stands out as a good one. Strangely, though, other Vietnam War films continue to get way more love from critics and just are more popular over all. And yet, while Full Metal Jacket seems to become increasingly overshadowed by other great war films in recent years, it has still had a long-lasting impact on how many people view not just war, but joining the military.
35 years later, we still laugh at this film…even though we might feel guilty laughing. Hartman’s rants, in particular, continue to provide countless opportunities for memes, despite being pretty offensive today. Full Metal Jacket, in fact, may be a big reason why we still accept the brutal nature of boot camp, strangely enough. There is even evidence the boot camp scenes may have even inspired more Marines to enlist. The line “Me love you long time. Me so horny.” ultimately became a catchphrase and was sampled in rap songs.
But we all still recognize that this is a serious film. Full Metal Jacket managed to not only raise awareness of the brutality of combat, but the harrowing nature of abuse recruits can endure. It doesn’t have a “happy ending.” There is not much of a resolution other than just being alive.
And while the film is technically an “anti-war” film, Kubrick never referred to it as such, and today it’s one of those rare war films that both pacifists and veterans respect. Indeed, it’s probably the best war film ever made to capture the collective doublethink we tell ourselves about war. War is evil and absurd. War is necessary and noble. It’s a constant contradiction that this scene in particular captures. (peace button clip) Simply put, no other film seems to have captured the absurdity of war quite like Full Metal Jacket.

Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission highlighted the tensions between religious freedom and anti-discrimination laws. More accurately, it highlighted the tensions between Christians and the LGBTQ+ community. Despite all the progress the LGBTQ+ community has made in recent decades, it’s a community that millions of Americans still refuse to accept.
While Charlie Craig and David Mullins never liked the spotlight and have kept a low profile ever since this decision, Jack Phillips has become somewhat of an activist. He later got in trouble for breaking the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act again for refusing to bake a cake for a transgender person. On January 26, 2023, Phillips lost that case in the Colorado Court of Appeals.
While the Court said that gay couples still should have civil rights protections under the laws and the Constitution, religious and even philosophical objections to same-sex marriage are protected forms of “expression.” That said, this decision was narrow. The Court did not address the broader question of whether or not businesses had a constitutional right to discriminate against same-sex couples. Still, critics said this decision could lead to further discrimination against marginalized groups under the guise of religious freedom.

#michaeljackson #musicdocumentary #behindthemusic
Today, Michael Jackson’s legacy is mixed. On one hand, he’s still the King of Pop for his overwhelming influence on modern pop music. Few in history have single handedly have had such an impact on culture. His songwriting, music, and singing and dancing style inspired multiple generations. At the time of the release of this video, Jackson had sold around 400 million copies of his albums worldwide, making him possibly the highest-selling solo artist in history.
On the other hand, Jackson had a messed up personal life. At best, it was weird. At worst, it may have been as dark as it can get, man. In recent years, his reputation has further been tarnished by more allegations of sexual abuse of minors, as seen in the documentary Leaving Neverland.
And so, despite his enormous success, Jackson will likely always be one of the most controversial public figures in history. Now, that doesn’t mean we can’t love his music. Because his music, well…it CONTINUES to make the world a much better place.

#supremecourtcases #supremecourtbriefs #supremecourt
McGirt v. Oklahoma was a huge win for Native American rights. Ever since, every Native American tribal citizen who had been convicted under state law for crimes committed on reservation lands could now seek a new trial in federal courts. Well, in Oklahoma, at least…for now. At the time of the McGirt decision, this applied to around 1,900 Oklahoma prisoners alone. More broadly speaking, the McGirt decision made it clear that around half of Oklahoma was NATIVE AMERICAN land, not Oklahoma land. This includes the state’s second-largest city, Tulsa. That’s a big freaking deal, folks.
Now, the McGirt decision was later somewhat weakened by the Supreme Court case Castro-Huerta v. Oklahoma of 2022. In that decision, the Court said non-tribal members could still be prosecuted for crimes in state and federal courts. Regardless, McGirt v. Oklahoma gave tribal sovereignty a huge boost.

And this seems to be symbolic of the Ramones’ entire career. Today they are arguably more popular than they’ve ever been. It just took a little while for folks to catch on. They are also respected more today than they’ve ever been. They are #26 on Rolling Stone magazine's 100 Greatest Artists of all time list.
The music critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine once wrote, “The band’s first four albums set the blueprint for punk, especially American punk and hardcore, for the next two decades.” Indeed, the Ramones today remain one of the most influential rock bands of all time. There have been dozens of tribute albums. Today, thousands of prominent musicians continue to cite the band as a huge influence on their own music. There’s even a popular children’s show called Yo Gabba Gabba! that pays respect to the band’s catchphrase, gabba gabba hey!
As it turns out, there’s a lot of us freaks out there. Gabba gabba hey indeed.
I recently visited the place of the Ramones first official gig, CBGB's, and Joey Ramone's old place. So what’s your favorite Ramones song or album? My favorite song is “I Don’t Wanna Walk Around with You” and my favorite album by them is Road to Ruin. And as always, I love to read suggestions from you for future bands I should cover for this series. Thanks for watching!

An annotated script of this video:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bIThqYPbYrFQNOPVfEkNI5v3gjtten3K7xfPq2wKC4M/edit?usp=sharing
The Smiths remain one of the most prominent bands in British music history. Johnny Marr is still considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time and Morrissey is considered one of the greatest lyricists of all time.
Rarely does a band exist for such a little amount of time yet have such a huge influence. I know that “indie rock” has become a terrible, catch-all label today to describe music, but if I had to pick one band that helped make “indie rock” a thing in the first place, it would be the Smiths. Odds are, your favorite band from the past 35 years was influenced by them- that’s how influential they were. More specifically, The Smiths helped British popular music return to its rock roots, even helping create an entire genre of music- Britpop. As a matter of fact, I’d argue alternative rock wouldn’t have been nearly as big in the 1990s if it weren’t for the band.
The Smiths may have only been together a few short years, but their impact on music and culture still resonates today.

Selling at least 75 million copies worldwide, Black Sabbath is one of the most commercially successful heavy metal bands of all time and often referred to as THE greatest heavy metal band of all time, helping to literally create the genre out of thin air. In addition to their 19 studio albums, Black Sabbath has released 8 live albums, 16 compilation albums, seven concert films, and one EP. Few bands have had so many lineup changes as Black Sabbath. The only constant during their 49 years of existence was Tony Iommi, but even HE quit the band briefly, remember? Regardless, they remain one of the most innovative bands to ever exist. More importantly, they remain one of the most INFLUENTIAL bands to ever exist, not just with music, but with literature, television, and movies. Whether you realize it or not, they’ve influenced you, too.

Memphis and Nashville
Two of the biggest cities in the entire Southeastern United States, and the biggest two cities in Tennessee
Based on my research and after visiting both cities recently, I’ve noticed that Nashville seems to be viewed as the city of Tennessee’s future and Memphis? Well, Memphis seems to be in the rear-view mirror more these days. I think that’s crazy. Memphis is one of the most unique cities in the country, and it’s a dang tragedy that folks are forgetting about its charm. So yeah, sure Nashville is amazing, but don’t sleep on Memphis, too. It has a lot that Nashville doesn’t, and the two cities definitely complement each other well.
Which is better? Memphis and Nashville? Let me know by screaming out your window or via messenger pigeon. Or, ya know, comment below…if you want me to actually get the message. Also, a lot of that footage you saw was filmed by my family and I so heck yeah. We were in both cities last spring and had a grand ol’ time. Thanks for watching!

R.E.M. remains one of the most influential and successful bands of all time. Before they were in the mainstream, they influenced the mainstream. When they finally entered the mainstream, they permanently changed it. R.E.M. is also one of the few bands to be both critically acclaimed yet extremely popular. And when I say “critically acclaimed,” I mean they are undeniably one of the most critically acclaimed bands of all time. I know, I know, critics are overrated, right? Well, they also have sold more than 90 million records worldwide. R.E.M. was a HUGE reason why “college rock” and “alternative rock” even exist in the first place. Look, when a band literally CREATES new genres of music, they’re kind of a big freaking deal.
So what’s your favorite R.E.M. song and album? My favorite song by them is “Shiny Happy People,” but any time I sing karaoke my first go-to pick is often “It’s the End of the World as We Know It.” My favorite album? That’s a tough one, but yeah I’ll probably go with Automatic for the People to avoid scrutiny down there. Anyway, let me know yours below. Thanks for watching!

#filibuster #ussenate #uspolitics
If it weren’t for the fact that the United States has been so divided over the past 25 years, the filibuster wouldn’t be as big of a deal. The minority party in the Senate has been a LOT louder and more powerful since then. It’s not like the Senate hasn’t passed laws since the 1970s. However, it’s been increasingly difficult for them to pass MEANINGFUL laws ever since.
The reason why it’s so difficult for the U.S. Senate to pass any new law is mostly due to…an accident because the creation of the filibuster was an accident. Only later did the minority political party make arguments that the filibuster was a good idea in order to protect the minority.
Whenever you hear someone argue that the Founding Fathers actually wanted the Senate to have a filibuster, I doubt this person actually knows what the heck they are talking about. In fact, if you go back and read what many of them said and wrote, they warned that making supermajorities a thing would lead to bills never getting passed.
