0:04.0	Welcome to the advisory opinions podcast. This is David French with Sarah Isger.
0:24.0	We are going to finish our 10 case analysis of key Supreme Court cases today.
0:33.0	We're also going to pop in with a little tiny bit of politics and have a robust discussion of the Hulu show Mrs. America about Phyllis laughley, the battle over the R.A. Gloria Steinem, Bella Abzug.
