156: Dogs are People Too, Visiting an Asylum, & Being Fat in France

Published: Sept. 21, 2017, 4 a.m.

Today's show starts with a conversation about how a decimal point might cost Susie $14,000. Then they talk about a new movie coming out called Toilet, which deals with the issue of toilets in India, and why it affects public health, relationships, and women's rights. They then learn about a recent study that revealed that dogs have feelings (duh!). Susie talks about a journalist from the early twentieth century who was checked into a women's asylum so she could investigate the horrific conditions. They also discuss a book about what it's like being fat in France, and how stigmatized obesity is there.
