Prager H2: Would you prefer your pilot smoke a joint or smoke a cigarette while flying your plane? Callers weigh in. Son David calls in to give his perceptive.
Prager H1: For a cool $20K you can now clone your dog. But why would you?… Dems whine Republicans are blocking a Leftist that the President wants to appoint to the Federal bench. Have they forgotten how many of GW’s nominations they blocked?… Dennis was not happy with the decorum at the hockey game he attended last night… Is George Zimmerman the real victim in the Trayvon Martin shooting?
Prager H3: If you want to own an electric car, go ahead. But don’t think you’re saving the planet. You’re not… Dennis talks to Amity Shlaes, columnist for Bloomberg View and director of the Four Percent Growth Project at the George W. Bush Presidential Center, on her new book, Coolidge, and her new Prager U. course: The President Who Shrank Government.
Prager H2: Dennis continues on the food stamp crisis. Listeners weigh in with powerful calls to support Dennis’s theme that food stamps are addictive.
Prager H1: Daylight savings time is supposed to save energy. It doesn’t… The Bloomberg ban on big sodas goes into effect tomorrow. Another great example of social engineering… Forty-seven million people are on food stamps. This is astonishing…
Prager H3: Per usual, callers set the agenda. Issues raised include: should a new bride defy her parents; why didn’t Romney run a better campaign; is it in bad taste for a gentile to a “Jewish” joke.
Prager H2: One of the keys to happiness is to get pleasure out of the “little things.” Today, Dennis looks at this from another angle: don’t let little things make you unhappy.
Prager H1: Marijuana is now legal in Denver. Not surprisingly, teen use of the drug is skyrocketing… The State Department got the message: no award to anti-Semitic, America-hating Egyptian. But why wasn’t she vetted?… A 24-year-old intern was killed by a lion she was tending in northern California. It’s a tragedy, but we must remember that animals are not humans with fur… Hugo Chavez will be on permanent display like Mao and Lenin. Creepy.
Prager H3: Are all whites, even NY Times-reading liberals, racist? Yes, according to one of the NY Times’ own guest columnist… Dennis talks to Terrence Moore, Assistant Professor of History, Hillsdale College. He’s teaching the third online course in the American Heritage series. Enlightenment and Natural Rights… Dennis also talks to Dr. Benjamin Carson, Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital. His new book, now in paperback, is America the Beautiful: Rediscovering What Made This Nation Great.
