JENNY ROUGH, HOST: It’s Monday March 31st, and you’re listening to The World and Everything in It from WORLD Radio. Good morning! I’m Jenny Rough. NICK EICHER, HOST: And I’m Nick Eicher. Time now for Legal Docket. First, the Supreme Court handed down two opinions last week. One upheld a federal regulation on so-called ghost guns. The decision allows the government to expand the definition of firearms it can regulate to include gun-parts kits and unfinished frames or receivers.

NICK EICHER, HOST: If you didn’t know this song, I’d be surprised if you didn’t know of it. Smokin’ in the Boys’ Room was a hit in 1973, undoubtedly the biggest song Brownsville Station ever did. SOUND: But everybody knows that smokin’ ain’t allowed in school. The rock band Motley Crüe covered it in 1985 and gave it a heavy metal edge. It was something of an anthem of teenage rebellion, when lighting up in the school bathroom was practically a teenage cliché.

In his 33 years of legal practice, Paul Clement, 58, has clerked for late U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Antonin Scalia, served as the 43rd solicitor general of the United States, and worked as a partner at Kirkland & Ellis. In 2022, he opened Clement & Murphy, a boutique appellate practice in Alexandria, Va., and he still lectures at Georgetown University. But he’s best known as the guy who has argued over 100 cases before the Supreme Court, including two this term so far.

JENNY ROUGH, HOST: It’s Monday the 25th of November. Glad to have you along for today’s edition of The World and Everything in It. Good morning. I’m Jenny Rough. NICK EICHER, HOST: And I’m Nick Eicher. Time now for Legal Docket. Well, Jenny, as you know, one of the reasons we have this Legal Docket segment is to examine the United States justice system. It’s a really good system. Not perfect. But a system with core values that provides access to justice.
