Timeless Wisdom with Dennis Prager

Dennis is back from Greenland and Julie is in Italy as they discuss the benefits of travel.  Travelling broadens your perspective on what a privilege it is to live in the United States.  It also makes you realize the general ignorance of Americans, especially when it pertains to communism in eastern Europe.  Americans don’t understand communism …like citizens of communist countries don’t understand freedom.  Americans have an international reputation of being ignorant, and while the ignorance of communism is bad… the ignorance of evil is worse.  Dennis’ mustard analogy applies for tradition and culture, but it doesn’t apply to values and morality.  On the upside… the international view of Americans is that we are friendly, open, and trusting.  Freedom produces trust… authoritarian states breed distrust.  Do you ever consider the miracle of your existence? Americans are lucky that English is spoken around the world.Music: Straight to the Point c 2022Richard Friedman Music Publishing 100%Richard Friedman Writers 100%ASCAP (PRO)IPI128741568RichardFriedmanMusic.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

President Biden held a press conference yesterday, his first of the year. He did well enough to convince some that he has the mental capacity to continue in the race.

Chicago’s mayor blames Richard Nixon for the violence in his city. Richard Nixon was president fifty years ago… The Dems still believe that poverty causes crime. The reverse is closer to the truth.

Dennis returns from his listener cruise to Greenland. He has many thoughts… Dennis watched the now infamous Biden-Trump debate on the ship. It revealed what was obvious to everyone but the media. Biden is aging badly… Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Dennis and Julie share that without perspective happiness is impossible.  Being a good person requires perspective.  Life is not a bowl of cherries.  Inspired by Abigail Schrier’s book Bad Therapy they discuss the gradations of therapy. Without perspective you can’t be grateful… without being grateful you can’t be happy.  They explore the connection between happiness and being good.  Awareness of evil and knowledge of suffering provides perspective, which oddly enough, can lead to happiness.  Are you a crier?  Dennis talks about his son Aaron Prager, and APUnfiltered.  The role of the other spouse in marriage infidelity.  In most cases… victimhood is a lack of perspective. The power of example… like Charles Krauthammer.  Is victim culture the malignant outgrowth of a Judeo-Christian society? What produces better people… God’s judgement or God’s love?Music: Straight to the Point c 2022Richard Friedman Music Publishing 100%Richard Friedman Writers 100%ASCAP (PRO)IPI128741568RichardFriedmanMusic.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Larry Elder is in for Dennis.  Biden is just a conduit for the Leftist agenda… abortion, climate change, “democracy” …if he can fog up a mirror, he’ll be the candidate.

Larry Elder fills in for Dennis.  Joy Reid flipped out after the debate saying that Biden may need to be replaced… yesterday she did a full reversal and said that Biden’s mental health is not an issue.  The Dems are stuck with Biden.   Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.
