You ready?

I was born ready.

Welcome to advisory opinions with David French and Sarah Isger. I'm Sarah Isger and David French is celebrating his 25th wedding anniversary far, far away from all of us.

I decided as he was sending me pictures from his lovely balcony and having toast with his wife that perhaps we could give David the day off.

But mostly I said that because I knew that my friend Katie was available to fill in today.

Katie Barlow is joining us as my guest co-host. She is a lawyer and journalist. She is the media editor at SCOTUS blog.

And today we're going to discuss a little nominal damages, which will take us to maybe a little Taylor Swift, a little, how did you get here Katie?

And what it's like to talk Supreme Court on TikTok, which is Katie's claim to fame right now. She has taken the TikTok nerd world by storm.

And then Katie, you and I both watched the Harry and Megan interview last night. We're just going to have to wrap with a little princess talk because listeners probably don't know that I was Megan's neighbor while in college.

We both went to Northwestern at the same time and she lived just a few doors down. I didn't know her. She didn't know me as far as I know.

But nevertheless proximity to Princess Hood will now be my claim to fame on this podcast.

I did not know that.

Yes, huge, right? I mean, you have so much more respect for me than you did.

So did you see her on campus and you just saw her right?

I wouldn't know who that like she was.

Right. She wasn't Megan Markle at that point.

That's right. She was a princess.

Right. I guess I guess I didn't see the princess quality walking around, which is on me.

So I'm sorry, America.

It calls all of my other opinions into question. I'm sure.

Nope.

So we had opinion hand down today, Katie.
