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

slate.com slash Amicus live for tickets.

The following podcast contains explicit language, including the words, well this is Hangup and Listen for Mardi Gras Week.

That is the week of February 16th, 2021.

On this week's show, we're going to talk about the debate

over whether to play the national anthem at sporting events.

We'll also discuss what the pandemic taught us

about the mysteries of Home Field Advantage and

Ryan Smith of ESPN will join us for a conversation about a lawsuit alleging that

the NFL's concussion settlement discriminates against black players.

I'm in Washington, D.C. I'm the author of the Queen, the host of Sloburn, season four on David Duke.

Also in D.C, Stephen Fatsus.
