On this week’s Eastern Standard:
We get some help for our heads as holiday pressures mount. University of Kentucky psychologists Michelle Martel and Matt Southward offer suggestions. We make a stop by the Lexington Humane Society to visit with Meghan Hawkins and get an update on the work of finding forever homes for furred ones in need. And while we’re on the subject of dogs (cats will get their chance soon), listen to Tom Martin’s conversation with Kentucky Poet Laureate and novelist Silas House about “Seamus”, the protagonist beagle in House’s “Lark Ascending” and the idea that dogs are messengers of love.
