It turns out wire has been made for thousands of years, although its uses have changed dramatically.

NPR's Book of the Day - Rex Ogle’s ‘When We Ride’ is a novel-in-verse about a best friendship under pressure

Seventeen-year-old Benny is studying hard and working as a busboy, hoping to attend college. Meanwhile, his childhood best friend, Lawson, is on a different path, dealing drugs – and is always in need of a ride. Rex Ogle's When We Ride is a novel-in-verse about their relationship, which becomes strained as differences between the two young men come into focus. In today's episode, Ogle joins NPR's Ayesha Rascoe for a conversation about the book.

The Gist - Four More Years?

Can Trump run for a third term? Someone who has contemplated that is Bruce Peabody author of the law review titled The Twice and Future President Revisited: Of Three-Term Presidents and Constitutional End Runs who joins us to discuss. Plus, Mike questions the political upside of detaining an innocent man, especially when Trump’s allies haven’t mustered a coherent narrative to justify it. And in the Spiel: The SAVE Act is stirring fears that it could disenfranchise tens of millions of married women—but Mike breaks down why, while flawed, the bill is unlikely to actually change voting access.

Lost Debate - Our Constitutional Crisis

What happens when the president of the United States defies a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling? Ravi is joined by The Atlantic’s Isaac Stanley-Becker to take a closer look at the case of Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man stripped of due process and deported to a Salvadoran prison, and the chilling implications the case may have for immigrants and American citizens more broadly.


They then turn to the Trump administration’s escalating campaign of retribution, targeting law firms, universities, and student protestors, and how it’s reshaping who can speak, work, and fight back in America. Finally Ravi and Isaac discuss whether the constitutional crisis many warned about has already arrived.
