WHAT IS THIS EPISODE ABOUT?
The Inside File: The Beast Games & Morality
Can a super popular reality game show illustrate a profound moral point? Debbie Georgianni and Cy Kellett pull “The Inside File” on the “Beast Games.” Drawing from a recent Word on Fire article, we discuss how the extreme scenarios presented in these games highlight the unavoidable reality of the human conscience, rationality, and natural law.
