Ep. 366 — Government Gone Nuts: RIP, Peanut the Squirrel

A government agency recently raided a man’s home and seized his pet squirrel, Peanut. When anonymous bureaucrats with too much power can swoop in and take away a pet, it raises a serious question: how much control should government have over our personal lives?

Ep. 365 — Who Suffers When Standards Drop?

The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) now allows extra time for test-takers with mental and psychological disabilities.

As well-intentioned but misguided affirmative action policies shift professional requirements, who ultimately suffers? Plus, Dennis answers your questions about risking grades to stand up for truth, Jesus, Halloween, and preferred pronouns.

Ep. 362 — One Year after October 7

One year ago (on October 7, 2023), the deadliest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust occurred. Out of over 200 nations worldwide, only Israel faces a constant threat of annihilation. Despite claims, the Middle East conflict isn't about establishing a Palestinian state. Dennis reminds us that the ultimate goal of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran remains the destruction of Israel and wiping the Jewish state off the map.

Ep. 361 — Who's Fighting for Peace, Who's Spreading Terror?

Israel recently eliminated a Hezbollah leader, yet somehow, Israel faces criticism. Why? People should hate terrorists, not anti-terrorists. Dennis reveals the stark contrast between Israel and its enemies: one side wants peace, while the other seeks the complete annihilation of the only Jewish state.

Ep. 360 — When Did Self-Defense Become a "War Crime"?

An opinion piece in The New York Times recently accused Israel of committing “war crimes” for taking out Hezbollah terrorists by detonating explosives in pagers and walkie-talkies. If Israel drops bombs, they’re labeled mass murderers. If they target terrorists' communication devices, it’s a “war crime.” Is there anything Israel can do to defend itself against those who want to exterminate it? Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep. 352 — Paganism at the Paris Olympics

A controversial performance during the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics featured a Last Supper scene with trans people and men in drag.

Ep. 351 — Did Divine Intervention Save Trump?

If you’ve seen the models of how close the would-be assassin’s bullets came to killing former President Trump, you can understand why many feel that God intervened. But is that warranted?

Ep. 350 — The Attempted Assassination of Donald Trump

If Donald Trump is truly the “fascist Nazi” that many on the left claim he is, why wouldn’t you do everything possible to prevent him from gaining power? You can’t have it both ways—saying he’s a dictator that threatens American democracy but being relieved that an attempt to assassinate him failed. This week, Dennis explores the broader philosophical implications of the attempted assassination of former president and presidential candidate Donald Trump. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep. 348 — 1776: A Legacy Worth Celebrating

On July 4, 1776, the Founders declared America's independence from Great Britain, initiating the greatest experiment in liberty in human history. However, with the decline of America’s education system, left-wing narratives like The 1619 Project, and the defamation of our Founding Fathers as nothing more than racist slave owners, the true significance of Independence Day is being forgotten by many Americans. But PragerU is changing that! Watch PragerU’s 4th of July Declaration Ceremony and download instructions to host your own. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Mr. Prager, why haven't we utilized our first amendment right to petition a formal redress of grievances before our Congress?

So the cia & fbi also infiltrated newsguard & also gives them tax$ to control the news to push the overton window as far left a possible. No politician should be voted into office unless they will actually stop this.

Guys...when you're so obsessed with what's in other people's pants, it's because the problem is YOU. YOU'RE the perverts. Normal, sexually healthy people don't speak/behave like you do. Everyone thinks you're creepy and depraved because you're consumed by thoughts of pedophiles and "grooming" and are constantly talking about sexualized children. Healthy people don't do what you're doing. It's disturbing and bizarre. I know you guys think "the left" are the "groomers," but you're making a spectacle of yourselves and freaking everyone else out. STOP obsessing about children! Go see a therapist, for Pete's sake.

As an atheist with lots of atheist friends and loved ones, I can confidently assure all of you that we pay very little attention to what religious people do or don't do. As long as your not forcing your beliefs on everyone else, nobody cares. It's really weird and narcissistic how you guys just NEED to believe that everybody hates you, and that obsession has led you guys into some serious blunders lately. Revoking women's constitutionally protected right not to be some man's baby incubator, for example, was a really stupid move that is already coming back to haunt you. You can practice your backwards, bigoted religion in your own homes and churches, but you need to accept the fact that your beliefs are literally incompatible with modern life, and that everyone has seen how hypocritical and hateful Christians are and wants nothing to do with you. All everyone wants is for you conflicted people to mind your own business and leave everyone else alone. Why is that so hard to understand?
