In this final meander of the season, I spend a little time and go back over my work these past five years to see if I can articulate a more satisfactory definition of joy. Not the noun or the verb, but the concept of joy. With help from a few dictionaries, and a few poets, as well as my many guests, I show you where I’ve landed. I’m keen to hear what you think about this, so please take note, and send comments to me at [email protected]. I read everything you send.

I hope you enjoy this episode. Please subscribe to us wherever you get your podcasts, and share this episode widely. 

See you in October!
