The Truth About Dogs

On this episode of the First Things Podcast:

Senior editor Julia Yost talks with Leah Libresco Sargeant about Harvey Weinstein, whose record of sexual harassment and assault was an open secret in Hollywood for years. Is his exposure an indictment of the film industry, or of all of us?

Then, editor Rusty Reno and senior editor Matthew Schmitz join Julia to discuss dogs—as pets, as “emotional support animals,” and as substitute children. Are they man’s best friend, or stalking horses for the culture of death?

Julia circles back to these issues with special guest Lucy Reno.

The conversation is embedded below. For your long-term convenience, follow us on SoundCloud or subscribe via iTunesGoogle Play, or Stitcher.
