Thank you. Glad to be here.

So you have been on Godspanning before, as well as on the Timistic Institute podcast.

I mean, you have accolades to your name, which far outpace appearances on either of those podcasts. But professor of philosophy at Loyola, Merriman University, presently on a fellowship at Notre Dame.

But for those who don't know, you could say word of kind of who you are and what's good in life.

Sure, yeah. So I grew up in Seattle and then I went to Boston College and then left for Notre Dame for graduate school.

And then after that, my wife and I went to Germany for a year.

I was a von Humboldt fellow at the University of Cologne.

Okay.

And then I took a job at Loyola, New Orleans, and then took my job at Loyola,

Merrimount.

And since I've been there since 1998,

but I've also traveled a lot in between.

So I spent a year at Princeton and a year at the Catholic University of America and spent a year in another year in Germany as a Fulbright scholar.

So we've kind of traveled around,

and been around a lot.

And what else can I say about myself?

You have seven children?

I do.
