What do you call an informed adult arguing with a loud 20-something who didn’t do the reading? A Con Law professor arguing with a gunner. What do you call it when you have to deal with 20 gunners? A Jubilee! The most recent Jubilee episode featured Sam Seder arguing against a bunch of conservatives and proves that common sense is about as rare in this market as affordable eggs. The most viral moment comes from a back and forth about DEI and if government agencies receive tax cuts for hiring people of color (they don’t):
Sam Seder’s critical thinking chops are presumably heterogeneous, but some of the honing may have come from his time at Boston University School of Law. It couldn’t have been that influential given his short stint — he dropped out to pursue comedy — but he was there long enough for any graduates of Boston University to brag about going to the same law school as Seder when they share the clip. Go Terriers!
