Professor Jessica Levinson, director of the Loyola Public Service Institute, launched the podcast "Passing Judgment" over the summer "for people who are curious about politics and the law and how the biggest political and legal issues of the moment affect you." In just a few short months, the show has become a go-to destination for opinions on a range of hot topics ripped from the headlines.
