  • I cover the NFL draft for The Athletic.

  • I'm looking at thousands of players, putting together hundreds of scouting reports.

  • I've been covering this year's draft since last year's draft.

  • There is a lot in The Beast that you simply can't find anywhere else.

  • my colleague Adam Liptak explains how a case about children's picture books with titles like Pride Puppy and Uncle Bobby's Wedding has broad implications for schools across the country.

  • It's Friday, April 25th.

  • Adam, welcome back to the show.

  • I feel like we're talking pretty frequently these days.

  • Seems that way.

  • So we have had you on the show a lot recently talking about the growing constitutional crisis that is happening under the Trump administration in this country.

  • But I just want to acknowledge that that is not what we are going to talk about today,

  • because today we are going to talk about what feels like a very normal,

  • very interesting Supreme Court case that has some pretty big implications.
