Dennis wonders how couples are doing now that they are spending much more time together.
Dennis talks to Victor Davis Hanson, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford. Dennis and Victor remain uneasy with the destruction of individual lives and the general economy over the coronavirus scare. Yes, it’s a serious issue, but what is the price we are paying by shutting down the economy?
Dennis believes God wants us to be good more than anything else. Callers have their view.
We don’t know how many people have the virus, so there is no accurate way to measure the death rate… 90 or so people have died in the USA from the coronavirus. Right now, there seems to be no indication of imminent disaster.
There are harmful consequences to shutting down the US economy. Are we allowed to discuss this or is it now forbidden?… The President holds a daily press conference updating the nation on the virus today… Dennis talks to Spencer Kleyweg, PragerForce Student at Liberty University…
Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders duked it out last night. They really don’t differ on anything — immigration, Green New Deal, etc. Just how quickly they want to get there… Dennis talks to Gabbi Sheitelman, a PragerForce student at Arizona State.
Dennis talks to Heather Mac Donald, contributing editor for City Journal. She puts the coronavirus illness and death numbers in perspective… What are consequences going to be for ordinary workers and small business people?
More and more restrictions fell upon Americans over the weekend. Now no bars, no restaurants, no sports, no gatherings over 50 people. Are more restrictions coming? Martial law?… Dennis talks to Michael Fumento, investigative reporter and science writer.
Per usual, callers set the agenda. Issues raised include: Synagogue sent out restrictions for this Shabbat; Survivors of rape shouldn’t be re-victimized; Companies are closing down because they’re afraid of getting sued; Alysia Clements a PragerFORCE member from Colorado; Synagogues are being encouraged to shut down.
A lot can go wrong in life. When it doesn’t, be aware of that, have gratitude and be happy. Callers weigh in.
The country continues to shut down… Is this the right prescription? Or an over-reaction? Why weren’t we paralyzed during the swine flu in 2009? 60 million got it then. 25K people died.
Dennis talks to Ann McElhinney, journalist and film-maker, about the Harvey Weinstein verdict… Dennis returns to the public health panic of the century.
