About this listen

 In this inaugural episode of our eighth annual Authors in August series, David welcomes back bestselling author, Harvard professor, and Atlantic columnist Arthur Brooks. Arthur brings along counterintuitive ideas about happiness as a habit, the difference between joy and happiness, public vs. anonymous philanthropy, and how the pursuit of money can sometimes… reduce freedom?! David and Arthur also dive into what makes feedback actually helpful, and finish with a spirited round of Buy, Sell, or Hold: Happiness Edition.
