| 0:05.0 | Hey, good morning. I'm playbook co-author Eugene Daniels. It's Thursday, June 15th. A big day around here. It's an opinion day for the Supreme Court. We have 21 cases remaining pending as of this morning. Tomorrow, us'll another opinion day. We should be seeing |
| 0:23.4 | something shortly after 10 a.m. There are lots of cases. And like our children, we don't have any |
