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.

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.

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?

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?

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?

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.

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.
