I'm gonna get a few things off my chest regarding Justice Amy Coney Barrett.

When she was nominated, we had a conversation, there was lots of conversation about at least

it's nice to have a young mother on the court, this diversity of experience.

At the end of the day is important.

So much for that.

This is Sarah Stewart Holland and this is Beth Silverz.

Thank you for joining us for Pantsuit Politics.

Hello, we are so glad that you've joined us for another episode of Pantsuit Politics

today.

Before we get started, it's really impossible to say how thrilled we are that Apple

Podcasts included us in its best of 2021 list.

We're in such good company on this list and we are the only show in the news category

which means a lot to us.

And I hope it means a lot to you because everything that we do here happens because of our

community, because of the way you email us after shows, because of the way you engage

with us on social media.

You all teach us something every time we're in a room with any of you.

So we hope that you know that this recognition belongs to you as much as it belongs to the

two of us and to our team.

And we are so grateful to that team and to Apple Podcasts and to all of you for this recognition

and this kind of celebration of what we do here.

If you're new here because of the list, welcome to what we think is the best community on
