Episode 17 - The "Timing" of Sexual Abuse Allegations

Description: Today on the show, it's a shorter episode addressing a big topic. The news has been filled with stories about allegations of sexual abuse. When a famous and/or powerful person is accused, they frequently challenge the allegations by highlighting the coincidental "timing" of the allegations as a way of dismissing the allegation outright. I address the fallacy of this idea by exploring the experience of survivors of sexual abuse. How do I do it? By talking about Star Wars of course.
