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 DC 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. Hi, this is Josh Levine, and this is Slates of Sports Podcast, hang up and listen for the week of November 20th, 2017.

On this week's show, Kevin Clark of the Ringer will join us to talk about the power and the

glory of Nathan Piederman's five first half interceptions for the Buffalo Bills

on Sunday. We'll also talk about the outlook for second-year quarterbacks Carson Wince

Dac Prescott and Jared Gough. We'll also be joined by Damon Young, he's a senior editor at The Root.

We'll talk about a couple of nominally basketball related feuds,

the first between Donald Trump and LaVar Ball about whether you should leave someone in a Chinese prison

if that person's father isn't nice to you, the second between Mark Cuban and Dreyman Green

over whether you should call the boss of a sports team and owner.

Finally, our slate colleague June Thomas will be here for a conversation with record-breaking marathon
