It's the human-animal relationship advice episode! For ten weeks we've been exploring our complicated relationships with animals. To wrap up the series, we convene an illustrious panel of big thinkers on our love-hate relationships with the animal world: author and New Yorker staff writer Susan Orlean and anthrozoologist Hal Herzog. They weigh in with predictions on what's next (S&M pig, anyone?) and answer your questions about the human-animal relationship. Celebrated biologist Frans de Waal gets the final word, revealing why we share a lot more with the animal world than we like to think.

The pure enjoyment of sinking teeth into well-seasoned flesh has been getting a bit more complicated lately. This week, we dive into the growing ambivalence about the way our meat gets produced. Arguing that factory farming can be, and often is, humane is Tina Widowski, Director of the Campbell Centre for the Study of Animal Welfare at the University of Guelph. She squares off with farmer and food activist Joel Salatin. For dessert, ethical-eating guru Michael Pollan shares his cure for industrial meat guilt.
