In this episode of Sheep Thrills, Emily is joined by her friend Jackson to talk about NYPD's recent deployment of robot dogs, and what that may mean for the future of policing. She also talks about the New York Mayoral Race, the continuing trend of police and mass violence over the past few weeks, and about the recent hold on Johnson and Johnson vaccines. Plus, the Suez Canal boat is back!
