Hello and welcome to this lateate Political Gab Fest for Friday, March 30th, the Eat Your Broccoli Special Edition.

I'm Emily Bazlan, Slate Senior Editor.

I'm hosting because John and David are somewhere off on a warm beach, each of them.

But it's okay because I am here with two of my favorite people, Beverly Gage, who is a Yale historian, and Jed Sugarman, who is a Harvard Law Professor.

Hi, guys.

Hello.

Hi, Emily.

So I'm so glad you're here this week because this is the perfect week to geek out. And I feel a little worried that John and

David would not have been suitably fit for this. Can I object for a moment? You've called it the

Eat Your Broccoli episode, implying that Jed and I are somehow broccoli. And now you've also

just called us geeks and we're going to geek out. So I just want to register my objection and then let you continue.

Duly noted. Dolly noted. Okay. We have three topics. We are going to talk about the law of Obamacare, of the Affordable Care Act, I should call it, and the crazy Supreme Court arguments this week. That's topic one. We are going to talk about the

political implications of the idea that this law could actually go down. And third, we are going to

talk about Jed's excellent new book about judicial elections. So that's a plan. Okay. So

Jed is the Affordable Care Act going down. So it has been interesting watching the reaction after each day, right?

So it's the freak out after every day or the spin every day was interesting to watch.
