Luke talks with Dr. Richard Albert, the author of several important works, including “The World’s Hardest Constitution to Amend?” and Constitutional Amendments: Making, Breaking, and Changing Constitutions.

Richard covers several topics, including ongoing constitutional discussions and critiques in the academic community, the state of constitutional veneration, comparative constitutionalism, and what’s missing from most discussions about amending (or not amending) the Constitution and calling (or not calling) for a new convention.
