When the Movie Is as Good as the Book

Guest: Tom Collina, Director of Policy, Ploughshares Fund North Korea claims to have tested a nuclear weapon over the weekend and now says it has the ability to launch one aboard a long-range missile that could strike the United States. In response, various US officials have sternly warned North Korea to stop its threats and they’ve not ruled out military action against North Korea. There’s no indication that would include launching a nuclear bomb at North Korea, but if President Trump wanted to, he could do it in the time it takes to send off a tweet. The nuclear codes are always at the President’s fingertips, no questions asked.  As North Korea’s threats intensify the nuclear debate, there are renewed calls to restrict the unilateral power of the US President to launch the world’s deadliest weapon.

In fact, it may not even be limited to humans at all. Dogs have their own version of helicopter parenting, too. And a recent study from the University of Pennsylvania found that mother dogs who were "helicopter" parents raised pups who were less successful later in their training programs.

Guest: James D’Arc, Former Curator, Special Collections, Brigham Young University Harold B. Lee Library For our regular series “From the Vaults,” where we dive into the treasures held in Special Collections at the BYU Library, we have a special treat today. BYU has one of the world’s premiere collections of film artifacts, thanks to archivist James D’Arc, who has spent the last 41 years acquiring Hollywood history. The collection he’s amassed while working in BYU’s Special Collection is mindboggling. And last week, on his final day at BYU before retiring, James D’Arc gave us a private tour of the vault, in the basement of the BYU library.
