This is the fourth episode in our "Rivers on the Road" series in which Rivers Langley drives all over hell and creation doing stand-up and catching up with old friends along the way. Today he's just outside of Knoxville on a back porch in Farragut, TN talking with close buddy and past guest of the show, D.J. Lewis and new pal, comedian and radio disc jockey Jake James. This episode is all about the people (and sometimes sex cults) that own mysterious castles in the Georgia woods. We also talk about D.J.'s new charity and that damn Flat Earth movie. Follow D.J. on Instagram @DasRebelYell and on Twitter @GutterBumpkin. Follow the show @TheGoodsPod and find out where Rivers will be next on Twitter @RiversLangley.

What Next | Daily News and Analysis - (Fixed) An ERA Advocate On Why She’s Optimistic
We got our files mixed up this morning! This is the corrected show for Tuesday, May 7.
The proposed Equal Rights Amendment is simple: It would prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex. To become part of the U.S. Constitution, the ERA has to be passed not just in Congress, but in 38 state legislatures. In 2017, Nevada became the 36th state to pass it. Last year, Illinois became the 37th. And last week, Congress held a hearing on the plan.
Guest: Carol Jenkins, co-president and CEO of the ERA Coalition and the Fund for Women’s Equality.

Opening Arguments - OA276: Did Kansas Really Show Us The Way Forward on Abortion Rights?
Today's episode features an in-depth analysis of Hodes & Nauser v. Schmidt, a recent decision out of the Kansas Supreme Court holding that -- whatever the U.S. Supreme Court does -- the Kansas state constitution protects a woman's right to choose. Join us to understand how this decision is important not only for Kansans but for all of us as we deal with the challenges created by the increasingly Trump-ified federal bench.
We begin, however, with a brief update as to the status of the Jeffrey Epstein plea deal that's been questioned by a recent ruling in Florida. We first covered this story in Episode 259.
After that, it's time for fan-favorite "Are You A Cop?" combined with a listener question about whether (and how much) "corporations are people, my friend."
Then, it's time for the main breakdown of Hodes & Nauser v. Schmidt, with brief stopovers in Alabama (to discuss Bill 314), a prediction on the future of Roe v. Wade before this Supreme Court, and a full breakdown of the Kansas opinion and why it matters.
After all that, it's time for yet another listener question, this time about the dissent in Hodes, what it means, and why the court spent so much time talking about the police power of the state, John Locke, and natural law. Confused? You won't be, after listening to this segment.
And as if that wasn't enough, after all that, it's time for the answer to TTTBE #124 about Decomposing Snail Soda(TM) ("It's Maddeningly Addictive"). Find out if Thomas got this question right!
