Introducing the “I Am Human. This Is My Dog” podcast – the show devoted to putting the individual back into the dog, as well as their human, while also examining difficult, and oftentimes controversial, animal welfare-related topics that have been largely ignored, but are critical for real progress.
My name is Jeff Theman, and I am the human behind River Fire Films, LLC. For over 45 years there have been two main constants in my life – an inherent love for dogs and the arts.
A season divided into two parts:
In Part 1 of the inaugural season, I recount my time as an aspiring filmmaker about to begin my directorial debut exploring dogfighting. for a documentary with a working title – “Fighting For Their Lives“, later pivoting the following year after meeting and falling madly in love with a little black dog named Preston, who changed the course of my life forever.
We will examine the popular pit bull advocate, Steffen Baldwin – who formerly was the director and humane agent of a rural Ohio Humane Society, who is currently facing a 39 felony count court case (State of Ohio v. Steffen Evan Baldwin) charges with bribery, telecommunications fraud, as well as a dozen or so allegations of cruelty to a companion animal, to name a few.
