What is education actually for? On St. John Henry Newman’s feast day, Daybreak looks at Newman’s vision of education, the new 2026–27 Newman Guide, and what its growth may say about Catholic education today.
Then we head to the Listening Room for His Girl Friday—the wonderfully fast-moving Lux Radio Theatre adaptation starring Claudette Colbert and Fred MacMurray—and discover an unexpected thread connecting the morning’s stories: education, work, vocation, and recognizing what we may actually be called to do.
From The Little Station on Commercial Street, this is Daybreak from Chesterton Radio.
