Timeless Wisdom with Dennis Prager

Is there any position that the Democrat party could take that would convince a Democrat to vote Republican?... The LA Times has made major staff cuts. The paper is failing. This is only a surprise to leftists.  A city council member in liberal Naperville, Illinois suggests that wealthy people in the suburb should open their homes to migrants. The wealthy liberals have plenty spare bedrooms. Let’s see how this idea goes over (it won’t)… “Nones” (no religious belief) are now the largest “religious” group. They overwhelmingly vote left.  Dennis talks to the chief rabbi of South Africa, Warren Goldstein. South Africa has taken Israel to the International Criminal Justice. It accuses Israel of genocide in response to the October 7 Hamas massacre.

Donald Trump won a second decisive victory in NH. His one remaining opponent, Nikki Haley, announces that she’s going to keep on campaigning. It’s not clear why… Dennis talks to Steve Cortes, founder of League of American Workers. He was a former Trump advisor and political analyst for CNN. Time for all Republicans to unite behind the former president.  Men want to be admired by their spouse. Women want to admire their spouse. This is a key formula for marriage success. Callers have stories.  A nursing student tells Wisconsin legislators that if she can’t perform abortions at any time in a woman’s pregnancy, she won’t stay in the state. Her arrogance and moral certainty are typical… Dennis interviews his 8-year-old grandson, Jack Prager…  Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

A Swiss banker at the World Economic Form says we shouldn’t drink coffee. Can you guess why? Of course the answer is: it causes global warming. Environmentalism is a cult… Another science research scandal. This one is at Harvard which is going downhill fast… In-N-Out Burger is closing their restaurant in Oakland. It’s not because they weren’t doing business. It’s because of crime… What would America be like without the Left?  Dennis’s new column reviews an old column he wrote for the LA Times. The paper used to publish Dennis often. Now it wouldn’t even consider it. It’s gone full woke… Dennis talks to Miriam Grossman, child and adolescent psychiatrist.

Ron DeSantis has dropped out of the presidential race. He didn’t catch on with voters even though he has been a magnificent governor. It’s very difficult to run against the most famous man in the world… Just before the new head coach of the New England Patriots said he judges people by their color, the owner said he didn’t judge people by their color… Sports Illustrated went woke and is now broke. The left destroys everything it touches. Add SI to the list.  Ron DeSantis couldn’t overcome Donald Trump’s popularity with the Republican voters. This doesn’t diminish his astonishing accomplishments as governor of Florida… The left wants us to believe that Donald Trump is a mortal threat to democracy. They conspire to keep him off the ballot and he is a threat to democracy? No, they’re a threat to democracy.  What harms children in a divorce?

Dennis and Julie start by discussing idiosyncrasies, pistachios, germs, loving classical music and hating tattoos.  Life has a way evolving you… youthful, preconceived notions can shatter with time.  There is tremendous value in learning from observation.  There are infinite “things” to take interest in… you’re not bored, you’re boring …you may not know what your “things” are unless you try them.  You don’t have to be brilliant, exceptional, or even smart … you have to take interest, work hard, and be self-disciplined.  The question is not “who am I?” …the question is “who do I want to be?”  People in the world yearn to learn… in the U.S. people take our opportunity to do so for granted.  Other topics include: adrenaline excitement versus long term enthusiasm; social media; marijuana use; jadedness; Dennis’ cellist story; victimhood status versus experiencing real assault; misogyny; racism; antisemitism; the surrogacy issue listener response.Music: Straight to the Point c 2022Richard Friedman Music Publishing 100%Richard Friedman Writers 100%ASCAP (PRO)IPI128741568RichardFriedmanMusic.com Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Biden excuses another $5B in student loans. It’s a slap in the face to all those who acted responsibly and paid off their owns. It’s also in defiance of Supreme Court decision. Who’s a threat to our Constitutional government, again?… Fast food prices are going up in California. Many restaurants are in real trouble.

The head coach of the New England Patriots sees color before he judges someone. This is Kendi-ism; it’s not American. You can’t be a clear thinker and be a leftist… A judge has prohibited any home improvements in Beverly Hills until the city builds more “affordable housing.” Who gave the judge this power? Where does it say in the Constitution that a city must build “affordable housing.”  “Killing San Francisco” should be the next book in Bill O’Reilly’s “Killing Series.” The city’s main mall is worth a fraction of what it was a few years ago… Edina, MN, a suburb of Minneapolis, is distributing “pronoun buttons” to its city employees… Dennis talks to Lee Habeeb, founder and president of Our American Stories.  Dennis talks to Alex Marlow, editor-in-chief of Breitbart News.  His new book is Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media's Hidden Deals and Secret Corruption.

Jordan Peterson has lost his free speech case in Canada. He can now lose his medical license if he doesn’t submit to their re-education demands. He vows to fight this absurd decision. Canada has been lost to the woke… Lies are the credentials of the left... UK Youth turning skeptical about Global Warming Alarmism. PragerU is referenced as one of the chief villains.  Most young people are told that it's a bad idea to get married when your young (say under 25). Is this good or bad advice? Dennis has thoughts.

Donald Trump won a landslide victory in the Iowa caucus. Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley finished a distant second and third... Dennis talks to Leonard Grunstein, former founder and chairman of the Israel Discount Bank and Farley Weiss, Chairman of the Israel Heritage Foundation. Their new book is Because It’s Just and Right: The Untold Back-Story of the US Recognition of Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel…"  The leftist media has gone berserk over Donald Trump’s decisive win in Iowa. MSNBC wouldn’t even broadcast his victory speech. The left lies more in a week than Donald Trump has done in his entire political life.  Bad language during surgeries was a big problem in an Australian hospital. But when images of an eye were placed in the surgery room, the swearing declined sharply. This is a good analogy to the idea that if we believe God is watching us, we behave better.

Dennis and Julie examine the free market of ideas.  Virtually everyone has a podcast …is that a good thing?  It’s a good thing that one must earn their audience.  It is also good to have such variety... that you can follow what you like.  It’s great to find your niche… but is that splintering us as a society?  It seems like there’s more access to information everywhere… but are we less informed?  Other topics include: as you age you repeat yourself, and have trouble remembering things; the Oscars – Hollywood’s downfall – due to the infection of political ideology; having political conversations has become taboo - do we avoid certain topics among friends because of politics; Claudine Gay; Dennis’ son has a podcast and shares about his struggle with addiction; one of the biggest problems in the United States… is people blaming others for their problems; Like versus Love; helicopter parenting and overzealous sports parents.Music: Straight to the Point c 2022Richard Friedman Music Publishing 100%Richard Friedman Writers 100%ASCAP (PRO)IPI128741568RichardFriedmanMusic.com Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
