Hey, meet the press listeners. It's Laura Jarrett, senior legal correspondent for NBC News. I'm dropping in your feed here to share a special new episode from the NBC News podcast. Here's the scoop. This month on the show, we're doing something a little different. It's exciting. It's a four-part Supreme Court edition with new episodes on Saturdays in May.
