Happiness, Virtue, and the Beautiful Life -- Dr. Sheryl Overmyer -- 05/02/18

Happiness, Virtue, and the Beautiful Life, an interview with Dr. Sheryl Overmyer, Associate Professor of Catholic Studies at DePaul University in Chicago, IL. We discuss modern misunderstandings surrounding happiness, the connection between happiness and virtue for ancient Philosophers, and the Catholic flowering of happiness and virtue into Our Lord's teaching in the Beatitudes. We look into insight from St. Thomas Aquinas, and, for the FIRST TIME EVER ON THE SHOW, our guest asks US a question!!! The answer we give: joy--so hopefully we passed the test!
