This author introduces a new communication initiative in the field of Slovenian constitutional law - the podcast The Voice of the Constitution (Glas ustave). Launched by the Institute for Constitutional Law in collaboration with the Faculty of Law, University of Ljubljana, the project aims to foster professional dialogue on rule-of-law issues and make constitutional topics accessible to the general public. The author analyses the content of the inaugural episodes featuring prominent guests: Franc Testen, former President of the Supreme and Constitutional Courts of the Republic of Slovenia, and Prof Dr Danilo Türk, former President of the Republic of Slovenia. The discussions highlight critical issues such as judicial integrity, the evolution of constitutional justice in Slovenia, and the constitutional role of the President of the Republic. Furthermore, the article situates the podcast within the broader landscape of legal podcasts in Slovenia (e.g., Vešči prava and VOX IURIS) and internationally (Amicus, We the People). The author concludes that podcasts, as modern digital formats, significantly contribute to constitutional culture and the ongoing reflection on the fundamental values of constitutional democracy.
