Consider This from NPR - What Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer’s Retirement Means
After 27 years on the Supreme Court, liberal justice Stephen Breyer is retiring. His departure won't change the balance of the court, but it will give President Biden a chance to put his stamp on it — and cement a new, younger justice in place for decades.
NPR legal affairs correspondent Nina Totenberg explains who might replace Breyer, and NPR political editor Domenico Montanaro outlines how the process will unfold.
In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment that will help you make sense of what's going on in your community.

CoinDesk Podcast Network - NEW MONEY: Building Your Brand, Then Building a Brand – Using the Power of Influence to Start a Business
There’s no guidebook, no course for marketing in the social media age. Yet platforms like Facebook, TikTok and Instagram have proved to be fertile ground for marketing and presenting personality-first ad campaigns.
Two influencers-turned-brand-founders Sabrina Sadeghian of the skincare-focused makeup brand 4AM SKIN, and Nicole Shiraz of Nalia Swim join “New Money” hosts Solo Ceesay and Spencer Dinwiddie to discuss how social media helped take their brands to the next level. The benefit of a social-first marketing strategy is that creators are empowered to showcase their work alongside their personal branding.
Sabrina and Nicole both analyzed the market from the consumer’s perspective prior to starting their businesses, which allowed them to identify and fill gaps in the market that the big brands had overlooked. Additionally, the two share the importance of recognizing and adapting to constantly changing trends to stay relevant in a saturated market.
“New Money With Spencer and Solo” is produced by CoinDesk. Our theme music is “Street Knowledge” by KC Carter. Art design is by Calaxy/CoinDesk.
