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

The following podcast contains explicit language. Hide your children. Hi, I'm Stephen Fatsis, and this is Slate's Sports Podcast, hang up and listen for the week of May 3rd, 2021.

On this week's show, it's a guest fest.

Master Tespasian of Bleacher report will help us deconstruct the NFL draft.

Ben Lindbergh of the ringer will tell us why moving the pitchers mound back by one foot

would be a good move for Major League Baseball. And finally, Rebecca Schuman will explain

why the Unitard might replace the leotard in women's gymnastics and why that's a big deal.

I'm the author of the book's Word Freak and a few seconds of panic. I'm in Washington, D.C.

We are mixing and matching this week. You'll hear

Josh Levine, slates national editor, author of the Queen, host of Sloburn season four on the

Baseball and Gymnastics segments, but you won't hear his voice in this
