Podcasts by the Federal Court on Confirmation

Federal Courts’ Introduce Podcasts in a Pinch and Resources for Supreme Court Confirmations

Podcasts in a Pinch are video and audio narrated by judges and students. They are geared for high school teachers, students, and interested adults. In addition to the podcasts, a featured resource is an explanation and interactive exercises about the process of confirming nominees for the Supreme Court of the United States and other positions on the federal bench.

The podcasts, and classroom-ready information about the confirmation of Supreme Court nominees, are featured in the Educational Outreach Resources section of the federal courts' newly redesigned website at www.uscourts.gov. Podcasts in a Pinch stimulate involvement, information sharing, and inspiration among high school teachers and their students. For teachers, the podcasts can be a quick infusion of new media to stimulate classroom conversations.
