[PREMIERING 7:30PM ET] Eduard Habsburg: The Antidote to Globalism and Our Nihilistic World
June 8, 2023
“There is no life without suffering. There is no love without suffering … You cannot have this perfect hedonistic life. It doesn't exist, even if advertising, media, and everybody tells you so,” says Eduard Habsburg, the archduke of Austria and Hungary’s ambassador to the Vatican. He is from the royal line of the Habsburgs and author of “The Habsburg Way: 7 Rules for Turbulent Times.” In this wide-ranging interview, we take a look at what it means to live a good life, and to die a good death. What is the value of faith, family, and traditional values? Is there something to learn from the ruling philosophy of the Habsburgs? What core principles unite America’s founding and the Habsburg approach?
