The Emmys experienced record low ratings last night. Could the reason be that it was a Hate-Trump fest? You’d think that Hollywood would figure out that half its audience voted for the President… There were riots in St. Louis over a police shooting of a drug dealer in 2011. Why isn’t this getting more coverage?
Per usual, callers set the agenda. Issues raised include: Is it hard to be a believer in God in today’s secular world; what do you tell your child before you send them off to college.
Is there a correlation between a happy childhood and happy adulthood? Is helicopter parenting inimical to a child’s adult happiness?
A bomb exploded on the London subway. This is the fifth terror attack in London this year. No one was killed but a number were burned, some badly. Will we forget this in two days?… Close to a thousand students protested Ben Shapiro’s speech at Berkeley last night. Protested what? It cost the college $600K to provide security, according to reports.
Highlights from the week of 9/11/2017
Hillary is on a national excuse tour. Oh, and she’s also promoting her new book… Are we really going allow non-citizens to vote in our elections?… Dennis talks to Meghan O’Sullivan, Professor of International Affairs at Harvard. Her new book is Windfall: How the New Energy Abundance Upends Global Politics and Strengthens America’s Power.
New York City is discouraging the use of e-cigarettes. This will actually cost lives because e-cigarettes are an effective way to get smokers to stop smoking… Dennis returns to the Berkeley “free speech” issue… Dennis talks to Phelim McAleer, film-maker, investigative journalist, and now play producer. His play “Ferguson” is opening in October in NYC.
Ben Shapiro, the popular conservative commentator, is speaking at the University of California, Berkeley today. The university is taking extraordinary security measures to “protect him” from violent protestors. Free speech? What’s that?

The answers are surprising and disturbing… Are you stupid if you voted for Donald Trump?… Dennis talks to Chris Buskirk, editor and publisher of American Greatness and Seth Leibsohn, senior fellow with the Claremont Institute.
