Hi, this is Dahlia Lithwick, host of Slates Legal Podcast, Amagus. If you are 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.

to explore the possible pathways out of the current situation.

We'll also talk to graphic designer Todd Radham, who created the uniforms for the Big Three on Three Basketball League about whether it's
