Dr Koontz and Rev Fisk answer a listener question about dealing with churches enforcing the government's whims, then return to the series on Hollywood. They talk about the place of film in society and its alienating effect on cultures that didn't produce it, the complexities of ethnic groups and the folly of ascribing coherent motives to them, how film studios began to regulate themselves and how that regulation was relaxed, the reflection of our society today in movies from the 1970's, and how media producers have increasingly more power even as they grow increasingly more distanced from the populace.
