Episode description
A dog chasing a squirrel is the most wholesome thing; maybe we could learn a lesson from our pups about what happiness looks like. Mark Rowlands, professor and chair of the philosophy department at the University of Miami, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss what he’s learned from observing his dog, Shadow, from microlessons in morality to understanding the temporal nature of life itself. His book is “The Word of Dog: What Our Canine Companions Can Teach Us About Living a Good Life.”
