In episode 95, we chat about our new baby, our kids keeping the fast, Easter week, St Thomas Aquinas’s ‘all knowledge comes through the senses’ and De Regno, and reason vs. instinct. 

In episode 96, we chat about symbolism and learning through analogy, rational creatures participating in the eternal law, Reason in exchange for physical protection, and the Four Ends of Labor.
