Hi, this is Dahlia Lithwick, host of Slates Legal Podcast, amicus. If you're listening to this

show, you might be interested in Amicus's live show that we're hosting in Washington,

D.C. on Tuesday, May the 14th.

My colleague, Mark Joseph Stern, and I will be talking to some amazing guests,

including Cheryline Eiffel and a sitting state Supreme Court justice.

All about how originalism, a relatively recently invented way of interpreting the Constitution,

has taken over the Supreme Court and radically reshaped the law.

It's been doctrinal rocket fuel for the conservative legal movement and facilitated the rolling

back of abortion rights, the expansion of gun rights, and the obliteration of the separation of church and state. And as another wildly consequential Supreme Court term, careers to its end, the Court's originalists are on a tear.

But there's something you can do about it, and we hope you'll join us in D.C. on May 14th

to explore the possible pathways out of the current situation, go to

Hi, I'm Josh Levine, Slate's National Editor. This is Hangup and Listen for the week of November 30th, 2020.

On this week show, we'll talk about the NFL in COVID times. The Broncos playing without a

quarterback, the 49ers playing without a home stadium, and the Ravens likely

pressing on in the midst of a team-wide outbreak. We'll also discuss the life and death of

soccer legend Diego Maradonna and whether there will ever be another player or

person like him. And we'll assess the football debut of kicker Sarah Fuller who became the first woman to play in a power five game.
