The topic of national sovereignty is explored across the podcast episodes, with recurring tensions between the pursuit of international legal accountability and the concerns of powerful nations over compromising their national interests.

For example, the episode 'The Rules of War' examines how international courts have sought to define and prosecute war crimes, despite the reluctance of some nations to cede their sovereignty. Similarly, the episode 'The WHO Is Seizing SWEEPING Global Powers w/ Dr. Meryl Nass' raises concerns about the World Health Organization's potential to override the national sovereignty of member states.

Other episodes, such as 'U.S. Asylum Rule Change, Gaza Aid Pier, Haiti Update' and 'Construction Begins on the Suez Canal', touch on issues of national sovereignty in the contexts of foreign intervention and the control of strategic infrastructure, respectively.
