Dustbowl Diatribes

Season 4, Episode 5: William Cavanaugh on Consumerism & Idolatry


Listen Later

This is a talk by Dr. William T. Cavanaugh, author of The Uses of Idolatry. It was originally given for the Center for Catholic Social Thought, October 9, 2025. We thought it was so good we asked if we could share it with our audience, and we got it from both Dr. Cavanaugh and the Center for Catholic Social Thought.
