Everything Everywhere Daily - Apollo 18, 19, and 20 (Encore)

In the 1960s, billions of dollars were spent, and 100,000s of people worked to land a human on the moon. 

After the success of Apollo 11, five more Apollo missions managed to land on the moon over the next three years. 

…and then everyone got bored of flying to the moon, and it was canceled. 

Learn more about Apollo 18, 19, and 20, the moon missions that never happened, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Up First from NPR - The Sunday Story: When Hospitals Don’t Say Sorry

Medical errors happen all the time. They can be overlooked or they can lead to big lawsuits and settlements. But what they rarely lead to is an apology. Doctors and hospitals have long responded to medical mistakes with silence. There are many reasons for this approach: fear of legal liability, loss of status, even shame. But increasingly, patients, families, and yes, doctors, are calling for a new approach, one that acknowledges the lasting damage that comes from a failure to address medical mistakes. This week on The Sunday Story, we talk to Tradeoffs health reporters about a family with a nightmarish story of a what they say was a medical error, and a look at what's being done to keep others from suffering in the same way.

Amarica's Constitution - Friends of the Court – The Brief

The “brothers-in-law” Vik and Akhil Amar have filed an amicus brief in Trump v. Anderson et al.  The brief contains a dramatic historic episode that you almost certainly knew nothing about, and which is highly relevant - perhaps decisive - to the case.  Prepare to be amazed by this story of the “First Insurrection,” which preceded and was distinguishable from the Civil War itself, and which makes clear the certain intent of the framers and ratifiers of the Fourteenth Amendment - and the course the Supreme Court should take in this case. This, and the episodes to follow, may be the most important episodes we have offered in the more than three years of this podcast. CLE credit is available from podcast.njsba.com.
