  • Jan Haaken and Mike Snedeker talk about the Oscar winning film Spotlight. They put a "spotlight" on the film's portrayal of the priest sexual abuse cases of the 1980s and 90s and take up the parts of that story that were not covered in the film's valorizing of the Boston Globe and its investigative team.
