Welcome back to another episode of Paul English Live on WBN. It's Thursday, February 20, 2025, and we're diving into a theme that's a bit "common law-y." This week, we're back to our usual format with myself, Patrick, and Eric von Essex. Unfortunately, Paul won't be joining us due to some icy guttering issues at his place. We wish him luck with that!We kick off the show with a discussion about the weather in Wisconsin, where Patrick reports a warming trend despite recent frigid temperatures. This leads to a humorous exchange about thermal underwear and school pranks involving Daymart Thermolactyl catalogs.Our conversation takes a serious turn as we delve into the topic of common law and the power of juries. We explore the historical significance of trial by jury and its potential to challenge unjust legislation. This leads to a broader discussion about the current political climate, the role of media, and the influence of global powers.We also touch on historical events, including the Vietnam War and the bombing of Dresden, questioning the narratives we've been told. The conversation shifts to the current geopolitical tensions involving Russia and Ukraine, with reflections on the motivations behind these conflicts.As we wrap up the first hour, we reflect on the importance of understanding history and law to empower individuals and communities. Join us for the second hour as we continue to explore these themes and more.
