Deuteronomy Launch
Dennis broadcasts his show from the Museum of the Bible in Washington, DC. The occasion is the publication of his newest book in the Rational Bible series, Deuteronomy: God, Blessings, and Curses… Los Angeles area young people are reporting dangerous rates of depression. A lack of religious instruction is one of the reasons, but not one acknowledged by the study, of course. One of the key laws of Deuteronomy is not to favor the rich or poor in the pursuit justice. That’s why social justice is not Biblical. Social justice by definition means you favor one group over another… CA has become a “sanctuary state” for transgender kids. CA will punish doctors not for malpractice, but for communicating “misinformation” to their patients regarding Covid-19. In short, doctors will no longer have the freedom to help their patients as they see fit… But if you testify in Congress that a men can have babies, that’s fine… A UN communications officer admits to a collaboration with Google to suppress dissenting views on global warming… You could still be forced to wear a mask at Amherst College.

Anti-Semitism at Berkeley
The U Cal campus has established “No Jew” zones. Will this spread to other colleges and universities? This is all coming from the Left. Yet, liberal Jews can’t connect the dots… Virgin Atlantic encourages their male flight attendants to wear skirts… Does anybody ever ask “what is good for society?” On the eve of Yom Kippur, Dennis notes that a theme of the holy day is that you can change. You can become a better, deeper, happier person. Issues raised include: I never heard of Thomas Sowell until she heard your show; I saw you on the Young Turks, you were great; Trying to decide whether to move forward with my girlfriend, it is very complicated; Minnesota orchestra tribute to Trevon Martin, Michael Brown and Eric Garner.

Guardians Who?
The Cleveland Indians changed their name to the Cleveland Guardians this season. The team is playing well, but the name change is a bad joke. Who roots for the Guardians? And what was wrong with the Indians?... Dennis talks to Ryan Bangert, Senior Counsel for Alliance Defending Freedom and Dr. Andrew Fox, former chaplain for the Austin Fire Department. Dr. Fox was fired when he had the temerity to suggest that it was unfair to women compete against men in sports. Dennis talks to Bill O'Reilly, best-selling author, famed cable news journalist, and now host of the Bill O’Reilly podcast. His new book is Killing the Legends: The Lethal Danger of Celebrity. Dennis talks to Paul Manafort, campaign manager for Donald Trump’s 2016 winning presidential campaign. His new book is Political Prisoner: Persecuted, Prosecuted, But Not Silenced… Who sabotaged the Nord Stream pipeline that connects Russia and Western Europe?... Who is responsible for the destruction of our cities? It’s not Republicans. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Happy New Year
Dennis returns after being off for two days for the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah. The theme of his sermon was the importance of honoring your father and mother… A conservative will soon be the head of the Italian government and the NY Times isn’t happy about it. Is love at first sight reliable? Callers have stories. A prominent pro-life activist was arrested by a SWAT team of FBI agents. What did they think they were doing? Arresting a violent extremist? What has happened to the FBI?... Portland was once a beautiful city with a vibrant downtown. No longer. It’s been destroyed by the Left… The Babylon Bee mocks the PragerU football team.

Vote!
Carl Jackson guest hosts for Dennis… Carl makes the case why this upcoming election is so important. It’s a showdown between the individual and the collective. Every conservative has to get involved. No excuses accepted. The inflation rate is over 8%. But on many daily items like bacon the rate is much higher. This is a financial train wreck for ordinary citizens… There’s nothing “lunch-box” about Lunch-box Joe. If Biden was ever a moderate, he’s a leftist now. When are black voters going to wake up to the fact that the Democrats are the true racists, not the Republicans. The Democrat policies harm the black community.

Dennis & Julie: Do The Should
Dennis and Julie delve into how real the show is…they both agree they must be the same person on and off the air. It’s not the actions that matter… it’s the intentions. God judges you is a more meaningful message than God loves you. It is also preferred that you fear God rather than loving God, when you fear God… you fear less. The Bible states that a person should fear their mother and father… in that order, for a reason. Julie has found that reading the Bible makes her calmer …Dennis suggests it is because it keeps her in touch with the eternal. The best is the enemy of the better. You cannot judge people from the past by today’s standards. You’ve got to know history… one of the staples of Julie’s new show Timeless. A discussion of how tonal languages are much harder to learn leads Dennis’ to share a story of his street fight in Marrakech. Why does Dennis love language so much?! Dennis recommends The Story of Language by Mario Pei if you love language too. What makes Finnish, Albanian, and Hungarian languages different than all others? When you learn other languages, you improve your own. They debate their favorite words in the English language. Is it harder to convert a liberal or a Leftist?

Are You MAGA?
Bob Frantz guest hosts for Dennis… MAGA is a movement. Being a MAGA republican does not mean worshipping Donald Trump. MAGA is a platform that includes: a nation that is safe, an economy that is strong, a future that’s built on freedom, and a government that’s accountability. Being a police officer is a heroic job, it takes a special person to step up and be the thin blue line. Pfizer CEO tests positive for COVID-19 for second time in two months. Posse comitatus… in common law a group of people mobilized by the conservator of peace – typically a sheriff – to suppress lawlessness or defend the county.

Martyrdom
Allen Estrin, Dennis’s producer, guest hosts for the first hour… If EV’s are so great, why do governments have to subsidize them?... The pursuit of Green Energy keeps running into a big obstacle: no one wants to dig for the metals we need to build the solar panels, wind turbines and batteries… There is a growing populist movement in Europe. Sweden and Italy are two new examples. On the eve of the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, Dennis makes that the case that a fulfilling religious life offers one a better chance at happiness than a secular life. Issues raised include: would Dennis ever consider adding a fourth “dedicated” hour; do we have political prisoners in the US; did Dennis ever dream PragerU would become as big as it has become.Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Another Mutilating Hospital
Matt Walsh of The Daily Wire exposes another hospital that mutilates children under the guise of “gender-affirming care.” Is there a children hospital in a major city that doesn’t engage in this form mutilation?… Why is it important that there are only two sexes? Dennis remembers how much freedom he had as a teen and how much freedom we have lost… The US has become a net exporter of bad ideas for the first time in its history. Illinois will get rid of bail for most violent offenses in January. Do you think this will make Chicago safer?... Columbia, Dennis’s alma mater, is rated as the least free speech campus. It was a very tough competition… Dennis talks to Marian Tupy, a senior fellow at the Cato Institute. His new book (co-authored with Gale Pooley) is Superabundance: The Story of Population Growth, Innovation, and Human Flourishing on an Infinitely Bountiful Planet.

No Diesel Trucks
California plans to ban diesel trucks by 2040. All vehicles — cars and trucks — will have to be electric… The Los Angeles school district thinks that criticism of junk food is racist… The same Los Angeles school district promotes a “queer” calendar. Each month has a LGBTQI+ theme. The tabloids are having a field day with rock star Adam Levine’s marital travails. Men must learn to control their nature. This is often easier said than done — even when your married to a beautiful model. The United States and Western Europe are in the process of committing energy suicide. Meanwhile, China powers up on coal. Not surprisingly, California is leading the nation over the cliff.Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Transing the Kids
According to a NYTimes poll, 70% of people oppose teaching kids about sexual orientation and gender identity. So, why is this happening? Because the Left controls education… Antarctica is not melting away. It’s as icy as it ever was. All media stories to the contrary are fear-mongering. New York City is sliding into serious debt as people flee the city. The NY Times blames the “pandemic,” but if that was the cause why is Miami prospering? NYC is failing because of crime, the lockdowns and its socialist policies. The pursuit of equality of outcomes — egalitarianism — always leads to violence. More people have been murdered in the name of equality than anything else. We can see this in the difference between the American Revolution and the French Revolution.

Dennis & Julie: Uniform of Nonconformity
Dennis & Julie September 19, 2022- 28 Uniform of NonconformityDennis and Julie delve into masculinity, and femininity. Would you prefer a male or female boss? Women need men. Some people cannot lie... and cannot accept lies. Do Leftists believe what they're saying... do they have principles… or do they just want change? Disabled people, Christians, conservatives, and the unvaccinated are the most oppressed groups in 2022. The egalitarian impulse in the human is ancient. Egalitarianism is rooted in coveting. Traumatization should be reserved for people that have experienced trauma. It’s your reaction to the action that matters. Leftism has people subverting their own nature's. It's impossible for Leftists to be hypocrites... if a conservative changes they are a hypocrite… if a Leftist changes... they're progressive.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Queen’s Funeral
Queen Elizabeth’s funeral was this morning. It was full of pageantry and ritual. Human beings need these things. They bind us to our past… Sadly, Pope Francis is leftist. He is not bringing people to the Catholic Church; he’s chasing them away with his preoccupation with global warming and anti-capitalism. Dennis attended a rodeo in Ft Worth, TX over the weekend. It’s a long way from Harvard Yard to the Stockyard in Ft Worth, not so much geographically, but politically and morally. The Young Turks podcast attacks Dennis again. He’s becoming an unscheduled feature on the popular left-wing show. This time they go after his comment that the world is not necessarily better because “you’re in it.” This is now a popular classroom poster. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Better than the Alternative
Mark Davis guest hosts for Dennis… Republican governors are sending illegal immigrants to Democratic strongholds: Chicago, Washington, DC, and now Martha’s Vineyard, sanctuary cities all. You’d think the Democratic mayors of these cities would be welcome these migrants, right? Wrong. Not every Republican candidate is a paradigm of conservative principles, not every Republican candidate is a golden-tongued orator or a Rhodes scholar. But every Republican candidate is better than their Democratic opponent. A Democrat might talk moderate, but they all vote for the party’s radical policies. Public education has drifted from religious neutrality to being openly hostile to the religious freedom of students… President Trump was given to exaggeration now and again. But when it came to the big stuff — problems at the border, the Russia hoax, the terrible Obama Iran deal — he was always spot on. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Suspension of Disbelief
Can anybody name what Donald Trump did as president that qualifies him as a fascist? Did he do anything as fascistic as wiping out a trillion dollar of student loan debt with the stroke of a pen?... CA wants to be a sanctuary state for “gender-affirming care.”… Is Western Europe turning Right?... Dennis talks to Marc Morano, publisher of ClimateDepot.com (great place to get science-based news on climate change). His new book is The Great Reset: Global Elites and the Permanent Lockdown. Sweden is becoming a country to admire. Who would have thought? It was stellar during the lockdown, keeping their kids in schools. Now voters there have just elected a new right-leaning government. The NY Times is not pleased… Do children by their very presence make the world a better place? Dennis talks to Vivek Ramaswamy, biotech entrepreneur, best-selling author of “Woke, Inc” and PragerU presenter. His PragerU video is “When Big Business Went Woke.” His new book is Nation of Victims: Identity Politics, the Death of Merit, and the Path Back to Excellence… America was built around the idea of what the government can’t do; now it’s all about what the government can do.

What Will Happen?
To have wisdom you need to ask what will happen if I do this or that? What are the consequences? How many politicians do that? Almost none if they’re Democrats… Dennis talks to Will Witt, editor-in-chief of the Florida Standard. His new PragerU video is “Who Cares about Illegal Immigration?” Dennis talks to renown relationship expert, Alison Armstrong. The topic is emotions vs. feelings. What is the distinction between the two? And how do men and women express them differently. Leftist teachers continue to flood schools with gender-confusing messages. Every day there’s a new example. The Left is a chaos-creating machine… Dennis talks to Elaine Parker, Chief Communications Officer for Job Creators Network. As far as small businesses are concerned, we are in a recession. No redefinition is necessary. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

One More Race Hoax
Ukrainian forces have pushed the Russian Army out a good chunk of northeastern Ukraine. Will Putin now give up on his ambitions to annex the country. Not likely. More likely: the war will drag on. For his own survival, Putin can’t lose… He who has the energy wins. China is going all out for coal and laughing as the US and Western Europe commit energy suicide. Another race hoax and once again the media swallowed it whole. This one involves a Duke female volleyball player who accused her opponents, the volleyball team of Brigham Young U. of harassing her with racist taunts. She made it up. Contrary to what you might think understanding that life is hard actually makes life easier. Not understanding this basic fact of life is a major reason why so many young people suffer from depression. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Dennis & Julie: Behave Accordingly
Dennis and Julie delve into public versus private conversation... the lack of civility while being confronted in public by the Left. Julie recounts an encounter she had while on a first date in Venice, CA. Julie's exchange reminds Dennis to recount a similar experience he had. What's the best way to deal with unhinged haters? Aphorisms... they aren't 100% and they aren't making better humans. No one is perfect the way they are... everyone needs improvement. If you want to raise good kids teach them... life is hard. If you embrace the hard truths of life... you will be a happier person. Dennis explains why Jews view Christians like blacks view whites, and why being chosen people shouldn’t lead to antisemitism. Exceptionalism... most groups believe they have it... and they should. Dennis recalls when he first learned of the Holocaust.

Mother and Father No More
The state of Connecticut has removed mother and father from all official documents relating to childbirth… The vax does more harm than good to young people, according to a major new report. The Young Turks resume their attack on Dennis. Of course, they distort almost everything he says. The subject is how nice people can participate in bad causes… Dennis talks to Rabbi Cary Kozberg, Temple Shalom, Springfield, Ohio. Rabbi Kozberg is a rare Reform rabbi who holds conservative views.

God Bless the Queen
Queen Elizabeth is dead at 96. She was a symbol of national unity in Great Britain and the personification of dignity and grace… Not suprisingly, those on the radical left are celebrating her death, some with vicious tweets. Dennis builds on his theme from last week: people who can’t release their anger at their parents. This week Dennis asks: why is it so hard to forgive parents and move on? Issues raised include: can wisdom be taught; what’s the most important thing you must do if you want to communicate effectively; would Dennis ever consider writing a Rational Bible commentary on the New Testament.Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

No Relationship to Truth
The left has no relationship with truth. The latest example: Mediaite writes a very misleading headline re: Dennis’s commentary about how nice people can belong to an evil movement…Dennis talks to Thomas Di Lorenzo, professor of economics at Loyola College in Maryland and a senior fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute. His new book is The Politically Incorrect Guide to Economics. An Irish teacher is charged with a crime for not calling a student by their preferred pronoun… The French Revolution with its obsession with “equality” has proven more influential than the American Revolution with its focus on individual liberty… Dennis talks to Ann McElhinney and Phelim McAleer, producers of the new movie “My Son Hunter.” The UK is caught in an energy crisis. Pubs are threatened with widespread bankruptcy. They can’t pay their electric bills. Do the English know who is responsible for this unnecessary crisis? The situation is not any better in Germany… Dennis talks to Nick Eberstadt, Senior fellow of Political Economy at the American Enterprise Institute.

EV Madness
We barely have enough energy to power air conditioners during a California heatwave, but we expect the entire state to drive electric cars by 2035? Where is the power going to come from?... 25% of Democrats say that men can give birth, according to a new poll. That number goes up if you isolate female Democrats and goes up more if you isolate female Democrats with a college degree… Are women more susceptible to brainwashing than men? If so, why? The hosts of the leftist podcast, The Young Turks, mock Dennis’s latest column. But in doing so, they end up unintentionally mocking themselves.

The Red Speech
What is a MAGA Republican? What is the difference between a Republican who voted for Donald Trump and a MAGA Republican?... The U. of Minnesota Medical School incoming medical students take an oath decrying “white supremacy, ableism, and colonialism…” among other woke sins. A children’s hospital in Chicago encourages children to come out as non-binary. What seven-year-old ever said the word “non-binary” five years ago?... Having pride in America and reverence for the Constitution is now considered “dark” and “fear-based” by the Democrats and the president. Dennis talks to Dr. Mark McDonald, psychiatrist.

Dennis & Julie: Humanism Is Arrogant
Dennis and Julie delve into both definitions of optimism. It is crucial in society for boys to have, and for men to be father figures. In Meghan Markle's new podcast 'Archetypes' she interviews Serena Williams, and they discuss the labels and boxes women are put into. Are claims of sexual assault overstated to promote victimhood status? Dennis never liked the campaign slogan “hope and change…” does America need major change? Dennis and Julie disagree on “gay marriage.” People on the Right are more accepting of opposite viewpoints than people on the Left. The Left’s rhetoric is so powerful that people are doing things against their own nature. Leftism makes you a worse human being… it’s ruining people’s natures. Most evil is ideological evil. We know the consequences of too much religion… we are learning the consequences of too much secularism. Religion is humbling… humanism is arrogant. Which came first …bad values or the Left?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What’s My Line?
On Labor Day, Dennis asks people what they do for a living. Callers include a baker, a fitness pro, a laptop part company entrepreneur, a nutritional consultant, and antique Judaica dealer, a perfusionist, the guy who sells coupons on the back of you receipts, a personalized wine box maker, a retirement planner, a computer access controller, a homeschooler, a motorcycle critic, a dog daycare owner, a cabinet maker, a maintenance worker, a union organizer, a power grid engineer, a writer/illustrator of children’s books, a motion picture/television art director, a technical specialist for the disabled, and a woman who makes teeth.

Gratuitous Hatred
What was the theme of President Biden’s very bad speech? “If I can get half the country to fear the other half, then I’ve done my job. And the NY Times will love me.” Biden did not offer a single example of how President Trump impaired democracy during his term. His singular obsession is January 6, a stupid riot by some stupid people. This is the Dems “Reichstag fire”: a simple reference to January 6 and you can say or do anything to your political opponents… Dennis plays clips from the speech and comments. A lot of people carry anger at one or both of their parents. Until you let that anger go, it’s very hard to be happy. What prevents you from letting it go? Callers react. What if your parents are not honorable, how should you honor them; Do you find the phrase to “Jew someone down” offensive; Will you eat plant-based bacon?Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Manufacturing Problems
Julie Hartman guest hosts for Dennis… As a self-admitted history nerd, Julie draws attention to the fact that no one can predict the future. And the future can tilt toward the good or the bad… The Left loves to manufacture problems like “white supremacy” and then pretend to solve them… A courageous woman in Seattle stands up for small children who were being ogled by a pervert. In our bizarro world, she’s the one who catches the heat. In the UK, over 90% of the people who are dying of Covid have been vaccinated. Is it time to question whether the vaccine is doing any good?... Julie talks to Heather Mac Donald, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute. Is America exceptional? If it is, why? Julie explores these questions. The answers are more complex than you might think. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Dissent Is Patriotic
This was a phrase that was very popular liberal slogan during the George W Bush administration. But liberals didn’t mean it. Dissent is patriotic only if the dissenters are on the Left… In California if a doctor disagrees with medical orthodoxy on Covid treatment (or anything else), he can now lose his license. Is one sex superior to the other? Does it simply depend on the context? Or can one generalize? Dennis has theories. So do callers. Twitter trolls have worked up a storm attacking Dennis for his column this week. The column is entitled “Women Are Disproportionately Hurting Our Country.” Naturally, Twitter feminists went nuts. But did any of Dennis’s critics read what he wrote?Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

My Favorite Words
Dennis reviews his favorite words in the English language. He explains why they mean so much to him. “Like” and “earn” are two. Callers have their own lists. Novak Djokovic, the greatest tennis player in the world, can’t get into the US to play in the US Open because he refuses to be vaccinated. This is a national embarrassment... Dennis talks to PragerForce member, high school student Madison Posadas. Are women the cause of many of society’s most serious problems? Dennis has thoughts. So do callers.

Dennis & Julie: Unjust Suffering
Dennis and Julie delve into music… it is generational. Julie’s Spotify list is changing as she ages. Dennis believes classical is best and doubts anything at the top of iTunes would hold his interest. Ben Shapiro showed up at a Podcast Movement event; the organizers apologized for the trauma his presence caused. Words like trauma and pain are overused by the Left. Dennis couldn’t stand small talk on a date… he’d have rather discussed human suffering and evil. On his radio show Dennis talked to Jon Mellis, a January 6 political prisoner who has been in jail for 19 months and has never had a bail hearing, let alone a trial. The believer in God has to account for the existence of unjust suffering; the atheist has to account for everything else - Milton Steinberg. Does God know what decision you would make, furthermore can God be saddened by that choice if he already knew? Do people really, truly believe the United States is systemically racist, or that climate change is an existential threat? What percentage of attractive women think they are attractive... do they really believe they aren't? Surely, if you do right, there is uplift. But if you do not do right Sin crouches at the door; Its urge is toward you, yet you can be its master - Genesis 4:5-7. What would Jesus think of the New Testament? The Left suffers from cognitive dissonance. Today's criminals are not held responsible for their actions... but the founding fathers are. If you vote Democrat... you are voting to destroy America. Having high expectations for humanity… leads to disappointment. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Political Prisoner
A new study suggests that Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan will cost not $300 billion, but $1 trillion. What’s $700 billion between friends?... California and Washington won’t allow gas powered cars to be sold after 2035. And for what? A vanishingly small lowering of temperature — maybe. Dennis talks to Jon Mellis, a January 6 political prisoner who is in jail in Washington, DC. He has been in jail for 19 months and has never had a bail hearing, let alone a trial. Isn’t this in clear violation of Bill of Rights — the right to a speedy trial and the prohibition against unreasonable bail? A Mickey Mantle Rookie Card sold for over $12 million. Dennis’s brother once had that card — until mom threw it out… Canada is spending $100 million to support the 2SLGBTQIA+ community… Secular + Affluence = Boredom leads to Leftism… Dennis talks to Xaviaer DuRousseau, PragerForce member.

Vaccine Rush
The Democrats say that President Trump pushed for fast approval of the vaccine by the FDA before the 2020 election. Presumably, the current president would never have done such a thing. But if the vaccine is so wonderful, shouldn’t President Trump be praised?… White college educated voters is the new, core constituency of the Democrats… The Washington Post shames parents who don’t accept that their kids are trans… If you can’t express who you are, you can’t be happy. You need to be able freely express what you think. Is it okay for married men to experience lust when they see a beautiful woman; are good people divided into different groups.

Student Loan Bribe
The President has wiped out student loans for millions. It will cost half a trillion dollars and that’s probably the low estimate. What about the suckers who actually paid off their loans? Or the people who didn’t go to college because they didn’t want to take on debt? Dennis was at LAX yesterday where they still require masks, but, according to Dennis, very few are paying any attention… Dennis talks to his producer, Allen Estrin, who is also the Executive Director of PragerU… Penn Medical school will no longer require MCAT’s of certain minority group. Dennis talks to legendary journalist, Kenneth Timmerman. His new book is And the Rest Is History: Tales of Hostages, Arms Dealers, Dirty Tricks, and Spies… If you can get people to believe that men are women, you can get them to believe in anything.

The Overwhelming Deluge
Carl Jackson sits in Dennis and focuses on negative rights versus positive rights... government health care is nice, but you do not have a guaranteed right to health care. If it's given by the government... it can be taken away. Carl is joined by Julie Kelly of AMgreatness.com to discuss the conviction of two men for conspiring to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in 2020, and a possible Trump indictment. Joe Biden canceling up to $20,000 of student loan debt per borrower. Carl sorts through the daily onslaught of bad news. The police officers were rehired, charges dropped: How efforts to punish police for Rayshard Brooks’ death failed.

UnAmerican Express
American Express has gone full woke. They’re hardly alone, but that hardly makes it any less depressing. It’s a revered American company… Despair is the only emotion that is not allowed in the fight against the Left… Dennis talks to Cicely Davis, candidate for the fifth congressional district in Minnesota. She’s running against Ilhan Omar. A Beverly Hills boutique bans masks. Why? Thieves have been robbing stores while wearing masks… How long will people continue to wear masks. There is no evidence they work... Dennis talks to Mark Shavitz, PragerU donor in Las Vegas. There is rational and irrational evil. If you rob a store, that’s evil, but it’s rational. But there are certain eruptions of evil that make no sense. The mutilation of children by “sweet” doctors is one example.

Dennis & Julie: United States of Despair
One may have a messy desk and a clear mind. How DO you to spell Nietzsche?! Dennis and Julie delve into their high school athletic experiences, and both agree having coaches toughens you up. One of the greatest traits you can teach your child is resilience. Affluence has made us weak...we’ve taken America for granted. People despair… the importance of the sabbath is more crucial than ever. Julie has genuine fear for the future of the United States, and Dennis has learned that to despair is a sin. What helps with despair? Boston Children’s Hospital has released a video: Children Know They Are Trans ‘the Minute They Were Born.’ Are liberals a bigger problem than the Left... is the bully or the bystander the bigger issue? Judaism is based in law, Christianity in faith... these gifts are also the curse of each religion. If you aren't on the Left, you’re a fascist... this binary thinking lacks courage. The Left’s brainwash is effective, and most effective in big cities. Dennis explains that the Tower of Babel from Genesis is always mentioned with “the city attached to it.” Big cities, masks, and protesting provide anonymity. Anonymity foments lawlessness and doesn’t breed kindness. The secret weapons in combating despair are knowing history, belonging, religion, and fighting... you don't have to have a microphone... small things matter.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Consequences of Secularism
Yesterday Dennis recorded the first of a series of lectures he’s doing for The Daily Wire. He’ll be covering big, timeless themes like the consequences of secularism… 600 physicians, almost all women, sign a petition asking the media not to report on or talk to those who hold a pro-life position. They say the science is settled. What science?... Dennis talks to Amala Ekpunobi, host of the Unapologetic podcast for PragerU. Dennis talks to Jared Kushner, senior advisor to President Trump. His new book is Breaking History: A White House Memoir. Yale joins the mutilation of innocent children club… While the US goes forward with these hideous practices, the UK backs off. They’ve come to realize how destructive it is. When will we?Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Gratuitous Violence
A flash mob loots a 7-Eleven store in Los Angeles. This sort of crime now barely makes the news. Violence has been normalized… Cities are dying as the result of lawlessness. San Francisco, Portland, and Cleveland are good examples… Michael Hayden, former CIA Director, says Republicans are the "most dangerous force" he’s ever encountered. This is a manifestation of that dread disease, TDS. Have pets become a substitute for having kids? They are certainly a lot less trouble. But is there a happiness loss involved in the tradeoff? My friend's kid got asked at his school what his pronouns are; The divinity of the number 40, an important number in the Bible; Can you elaborate on the three K's in Nazi Germany; In MN they are offering 10,000 per child if you homeschool; In an AAA meeting it is tradition to wear a tie to show respect.

Creating Chaos
The Left lives for chaos. If it doesn’t exist, the Left will create chaos. It’s obsession with Donald Trump is a perfect example: Russia Hoax, two absurd impeachments attempts, now the unprecedented Mar-a-Lago raid… Dennis talks to Elaine Parker, Chief Communications Officer for Job Creators Network about the absurdly named Inflation Reduction Act. Boston Children’s Hospital is engaging in the worst kind of medical malpractice — encouraging transgenderism… Dennis talks to Ava Kosoy, PragerFORCE member in Plano, TX. Dennis talks to Blake Masters, Republican candidate for Senate in Arizona... The difference between left and right is not merely a difference in values; it’s a different perception of reality.

Big Lose
Trump-deranged Lynn Cheney lost big yesterday. Her finger-wagging Trump hatred was thoroughly rejected by ordinary Wyoming residents… The legacy media defends Boston Children’s hospital and its promotion of its trans agenda… Dennis talks to PragerForce member, Cam Higby, Tik Tok influencer… until Tik Tok deplatformed him. It’s okay for men to dress up as women for five-year-olds — Drag Queen Story Hour. But it’s wrong, according to the left, for women to dress up in sexy clothing for men. Does this make sense to anyone who isn’t a leftist? Is the demise of sexy Victoria Secret models a good or bad thing? Remember when the Greens were hysterically announcing that the Great Barrier Reef was dying, being bleached into oblivion by global warming? Turns out the Greens were wrong… again. The reef is better than ever… Nancy Pelosi speaks of “Mother Earth” as if she were a pagan priestess… The UK (and US) military is being DEI’ed out of existence.

Say Equity
Minneapolis Teachers Unions will fire white teachers first in their search for “equity.”… Dennis talks to Nathan Hochman, Republican candidate for Attorney General of California. He served as an Assistant Attorney General under the Bush Administration. The Democrats are firmly in the grip of Trump Derangement Syndrome. They will do anything to destroy the 45th President. TDS is behind the Mar-a-Lago raid… Boston Children’s Hospital is a chamber of horrors, a center of transgender surgery. The hospital brags about it… Dennis talks to Lindsay Ballif, PragerForce member in Panama City Beach, FL. There is no secular answer to evil. Dennis explains. Callers react.

Dennis & Julie: Confrontation Averse
Are you a character, is it genetic, or can it be learned? Dennis’ theory on having theories… like Julie, he wanted to understand life at an early age. Dennis and Julie were taken by an email from a young fan. Only good people acknowledge goodness. Many on the Left disregard free will and avoid confrontation. Living a good life will lead to having no fear of death. Love is a false God… religion can be too. Dennis would rather be on an all-star team than be a star. Passing the torch of civilization is constant hard work... nothing is guaranteed. Many people on the Left are fighting issues they've never experienced; they have contempt for the traditional… while novelty is rewarded. Students are asked to critique the classics, not appreciate them. Paul Johnson is a gift to humanity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Don’t Despair
Novelist Salman Rushdie was brutally attacked by a Muslim extremist… The Left and Islamists have a lot of common… If the Covid crisis proved anything it’s that many Americans want to be told what to do. They prefer security to freedom. This is a disturbing development… UCLA Law School is tracking organizations that oppose CRT… Dennis talks to Pattie Barrett, member of the PragerU advisory board. Once again, the government won’t tell us the truth about a public health crisis: monkey pox. Ninety-eight percent of the people effected by the disease are gay men, but, according to media and government reports, it’s not a “gay issue.”… Dennis talks to Sebastian Gorka, former advisor to President Trump and host of the Sebastian Gorka Show about the Mar-a-Lago raid. It’s easy to despair. And there’s a lot to despair about. But you must resist the temptation to give in to it. What’s your choice?

Newspeak
The Inflation Reduction Act does everything but reduce inflation. It’s a great example of Orwellian “Newspeak.” It means the opposite of what the Administration says it means… 87,000 new IRS agents (also in the bill) is the greatest expansion of federal police power in decades, maybe ever… No more Pledge of Alliance in Fargo, ND… In our secular age kids are taught that their biggest problem is society. This is a recipe for unhappiness. The only way to be happy is to fight your nature. Issues raised include: Should the worst criminals get the best legal defense; why did God create human beings; Dennis talks to Lilah Burger, PragerFORCE member in Los Angeles.Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Stasi
Half the country has lost faith in the FBI as a non-political institution. It now acts like the enforcement arm of the Democratic Party. This is a terrible development and very scary…Dennis talks to Dan Henninger, columnist for the Wall Street Journal and member of the paper’s editorial board. We are in the middle of a non-violent civil war. It will be settled this time by people moving to states that align with their values… Are people angrier than they have been in the past?

Leave Them Kids Alone
Imagine if Trump had sent the FBI into Hillary’s home… the “mainstream” media would have gone apoplectic. Denmark has announced that people under the age of 18 are no longer allowed to get the COVID vaccine. Julia Spies, a PragerFORCE member, joins the show. She has really enjoyed being able to have deep conversations with PragerFORCE friends about politics, philosophy, faith, and so much more. What have you learned about the opposite sex through marriage? In his fiftieth book, The Price of Principle: Why Integrity Is Worth the Consequences, Alan Dershowitz—#1 New York Times bestselling author and one of America’s most influential legal scholars—explores the implications of the increasing tendency in politics, academia, media, and even the courts of law to punish principle and reward partisan hypocrisy.Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

A Police State
The Left believes the FBI is a weapon of mass destruction for destroying their opponents. They raided Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Florida on Monday as part of an investigation into his handling of classified information… “What is the difference between this and Watergate…,” said Trump. California is no garden of Eden. It is now over-woke… both the rich and poor are fleeing. Gavin Newsome is good looking… that’s it. Bad progressive policies have tarnished the once golden state. An 80-year-old woman was permanently banned from her YMCA pool after demanding that a transgender employee leave the women’s locker room. Oklahoma Sooners assistant coach Cale Gundy resigns after reading aloud 'shameful and hurtful' n-word. Seijin Shirotori, a member of PragerFORCE, joins Dennis.

Dennis & Julie: Vulnerability
Dennis and Julie discuss being vulnerable in today’s culture. Does having a hobby require a certain level of vulnerability? Dennis observes that while men rib each other… women do not. Hook up culture benefits one sex… and it isn’t women. Men desire variety, how can that lead to monogamy? Is sex before marriage a sin? Dennis believes there are gradations of sin… all evil is sin, but not all sin is evil. The prevalence of marijuana use in society continues to rise. They discuss using marijuana versus alcohol. Dennis watched an episode of Real Housewives and Naked and Afraid much to Julie’s surprise. How much of reality tv… is reality? Surrogacy is miraculous, but is it being misused. Conservatives understand how liberals think, but liberals have no clue how conservatives think. Dennis regrets saying one thing in 40 years of broadcasting. Have Dennis’ views changed in 40 years… “Am I conservative or am I just logical!” Forget political affiliation… does it make sense?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
