Dennis & Julie: Tragedy Happens Oct 23, 2023

Show notes

Dennis postulates that much of life’s pain comes from surprise… that’s why it’s so important to have a realistic view of the world. People tend to think they are immune from things that happen to “the other guy,” but you are “the other guy.” Dennis recalls a speech at a London synagogue where he realized most people believe that being a good religious person provides some level of protection from bad things happening to you. What happened in Israel strengthens Dennis’ faith. What are the origins of radical Islamic violence? Julie reacts to the students at Harvard protesting Israel and the Candace Owens - Megyn Kelly feud. For Dennis being young does not excuse your ignorance… you are what you do. Cancel culture is detrimental on both sides of the aisle.

Stopping the Donald Oct 20, 2023

Show notes

Thirty million Americans say they are okay with violence to prevent Donald Trump from becoming president again, according to a U. of Chicago poll… In a Tik Tok video a liberal woman laments that all the masculine men she knows are conservative… We’re giving Hamas a $100M to be used for “humanitarian” purposes. Hamas controls everything in Gaza. We have no idea what they will do with anything we give them, except that they’ll use it for evil. If you keep your expectations low, you’ll have a better chance of being happy. Be surprised when good things happen. Issues raised include: when I was 14 my dad told me to do chores and this taught me a lesson; what do you think will happen to Christians when they hit the afterlife; Greta Thunberg is calling for peace on all sides, what are your thoughts; if you had a college age kid in Israel now, what would you do, take them out of the college; would rather have the donor put their name on the college wall than be anonymous; your thoughts on if you can believe in idols and still go to heaven; a small conservative town in NJ looks and felt like Florida during covid, it was a delight; a follow up to PragerU, my son’s life has changed; you keep saying Hitler wanted to kill Jews but in 1938 he wanted to deport them.

Rush to Equivocation Oct 19, 2023

Show notes

The legacy media can’t quite make up its mind. Was the rocket that hit Gaza hospital from Hamas or from Israel. Does it matter that overwhelming evidence indicates that the rocket came from Gaza…. 65 German police were injured in Berlin during a pro-Hamas riot in Berlin… Dennis talks to the President of the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE). His new book is The Canceling of the American Mind: Cancel Culture Undermines Trust and Threatens Us All―But There Is a Solution. A Canadian conservative politician, Pierre Poilievre, deftly parries a left-wing reporter who tries to trap him… The Anti-Defamation League is experiencing cognitive dissonance. Their left-wing allies like BLM are obviously antisemitic… Dennis talks to video journalist, Ami Horowitz. Dennis talks to Alexandra Locke, an Internet entrepreneur who decided to stand up for her conservative values…

Hamas Hospital Lie Oct 18, 2023

Show notes

A hospital in Gaza was hit by rocket. Many were reported killed. Immediately, the left blamed Israel. But it turns out that the rocket came from Gaza. Israel had nothing to do with it. Does the truth matter? Why do some men fear marriage? Why do some women? Dennis has theories. So do callers. Dennis talks again to Mark Helprin, Senior fellow at the Claremont Institute and one of America's foremost novelists. His new novel is The Oceans and the Stars: A Sea Story, A War Story, A Love Story.

Lower Standards Oct 17, 2023

Show notes

New York City lowered its educational standards and then celebrated when students scored much better this year than last year. But their “improved performance” is phony. The Left has destroyed our educational system from pre-school through grad school. The President is going to Israel tomorrow. His statements re: Israel have been very positive. But his position re: Iran before the Hamas massacre were very negative… Dennis talks to an Israeli soldier in Southern Israel near Gaza. The Jews were chosen by God to bring the message of Ethical Monotheism into the world. What does this mean? Dennis explains. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

No More Discipline Oct 16, 2023

Show notes

CA now has a law that prevents teachers from disciplining kids who disrupt school classrooms… Nobody spoke about a “cycle of violence” during World War II. Why do we speak about it now? Isn’t the question, who started the war? Dennis takes a break from the news to talk to David Zucker, Jerry Zucker and Jim Abrahams, the writers and directors of the classic comedy Airplane! Their new book is Surely You Can’t Be Serious: The True Story of Airplane! Dennis encourages his listeners not to despair. We can’t afford it… There has been some real soul-searching by liberals. Hamas is not about freedom; it’s about killing Jews… Dennis talks to Aryeh Leifert, a senior editor at PragerU based in Jerusalem. He’s also a certified Israel Tour guide.

Dennis & Julie: The Middle East Problem Oct 16, 2023

Show notes

Dennis and Julie were deeply troubled by the developments between Israel and Hamas. The number of Israelis killed in the Hamas attack is the largest since the Nazis in the Holocaust. Dennis and Julie are baffled by groups that blame Israel for the conflict. The American Jew is disappearing. Israel is the canary in the world’s coal mine. We should be the most enlightened people to ever live… given our resources and technology …and yet we may be the least enlightened. Wisdom and knowledge are not related. America must be strong… or the rest of the world is in danger. Is Biden to blame? The existence of evil is tough enough, but the moral confusion about it is only making things more difficult. You should never be a sheep. The silver lining of the horrific attack is …there were 9-11 conservatives …there may be 10-7 Zionists. Morally we are all two people – micro and macro.

Antisemite U Oct 13, 2023

Show notes

Prominent Harvard University alumni on Monday denounced a pro-Palestinian statement from students that blamed Israel for violence engulfing the region and urged the university to act against the signatories… Harvard says its students' letter does not speak for university. A billionaire alumnus calls for halt to donations until UPenn leaders resign over ‘anti-Jewish hate.’ What did your parents do that helped you to become a happy person? Dennis has thoughts. So do callers. A Best Of Prager Hour Originally Aired on 6/23/23. Issues raised include: on being a boring person and taking interest in others; what is your take on God being separate from the creation; you hate Nazis, yet do you know they wanted Europe to be European; glad you stayed a radio host and didn’t run for government; on widows who still wear their wedding bands; would that Nazi caller think it’s justified to massacre the immigrants coming into the USA now; do you have any interest in NASCAR? A Best Of Prager Hour Originally Aired on 9/29/23.

Campus Blowback Oct 12, 2023

Show notes

Leftist student groups reflexively signed on to condemning Israel and praising Hamas. But when they were roundly condemned, especially by alumni, many backed down. “Oh, we didn’t really mean it.”…Israelis were lulled into complacency because they believed Gazans wanted a better life. Many were working in Israel. There are Jews who support Hamas, that’s the equivalent of black Americans being pro-slavery. 10 – 7 may be a seed change… perhaps people will wake up to the evils of those who wish to annihilate Israel. Liberals should separate themselves from the Left. Students for Justice in Palestine plans ‘Day of Resistance’ celebrating anti-Israel violence on U.S. college campuses. Biden sends aircraft carrier group to eastern Mediterranean in response to Hamas attack on Israel… but Dennis is skeptical that this will be effective.

Immoral Equivalence Oct 11, 2023

Dennis highlights a column in the City Journal by Juliana Geran Pilon… the efforts of mainstream media, government officials, and elite universities to avoid outright condemnation of Hamas reveal a West at war with itself. Dennis also analyzes NYT’s Bret Stephens’ latest column: The Anti-Israel Left Needs to Take a Hard Look at Itself. Can a husband tell his overweight wife that she should lose weight? Callers weigh in. Dennis is joined by Ben Shapiro of the Daily Wire… they analyze the ongoing dispute in the Middle East. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.
