Happy Holidays! This year, we're all "Ba Humbug"!
In her podcast debut, Brennan asks the question: Is it ethical to lie about Santa Claus to our children?
Brennan consults many ethical perspectives in her search to determine an answer. Some perspectives include rule-based ethics, utilitarian calculations, Joe Biehl's "Lies, Damn Lies, and Santa Claus", and "Your Kids Believe in Santa? A Scientist Says to Tell Them to Stop It" from the Washington Post.
Is the existence of Santa reflective of a societal desire for control and order over our children? Perhaps we are a cynical bunch...
Special thanks to Sidharth Sirdeshmukh for masterminding the background beats!
