Prager H1: A monster 8.9 earthquake hit northern Japan last night. Hundreds, maybe thousands have been killed as a massive tsunami swept into coastal cities. Dennis talks to John Vidale, Director of Pacific Northwest Seismic Network about what 8.9 quake means and what the risks are to the US. Governor Scott Walker won the battle in Wisconsin, but can Republicans win the war to curb public service unions?… Congressional hearings on domestic terror threat posed by radicalized Muslims lasted all of one day, but one day was enough to throws Democrats into a “McCarthy” accusing hysteria. Why?

Prager H2: Dennis revisits the issue of the importance of friends to happiness. Ideally, your best friend is your spouse, but we need same sex friends outside of marriage, too. Are you afraid to open up to friends? If so, why?

Prager H3: Per usual, callers set the agenda. Issues raised include: why do we assume actors are liberal; why doesn’t anyone say “you’re welcome” anymore; is bullying a really a consequence of secularism; are most white collar criminals religious; should drugs be legalized.
