Prager H2: Dennis interviews Andrew Roberts, author of The Storm of War: A New History of the Second World War.
Prager H1: North Korea is now the chair of the United Nations Conference on Disarmament. The UN reaches a new level of absurdity. Dennis talks about the dangerously foolish idea that free countries can negotiate with totalitarian countries. And a high school principal in Nevada gave a graduation address in Spanish. A defender called it an example of the American melting pot. Of course, it is the opposite of the melting pot ideal.
Prager H3: Glenn Beck is attacked in New York watching a movie. Why do those of the Right need bodyguards wherever they go in public, but no one on the Left does? Michael Moore is lionized on campus; Ann Coulter needs protection… John Lennon’s personal assistant at the time of his death says he had become a conservative in his last years… The Left puts its hatred of Big Pharma above the quality of life for cancer patients.
Prager H2: Dennis directs his attention to the dating scene. His sister-in-law, recently divorced, and now using an Internet dating service, is the source of some wince-making stories. Callers weigh in with their stories.
Prager H1: Dennis talks to Senator Jon Kyl, Majority Whip, about the debt ceiling and deficit crises… Dennis also talks to Paul O’Shea, Australian historian, Dean of Mission at Rosebank College, Sydney. His new book is A Cross Too Heavy: Pope Pius XII and the Jews of Europe.
Prager H3: One of the most common phrases in the Bible is “the beginning of wisdom is the fear of God.” You can find it in Psalms, Proverbs and Job. Dennis explains what the verse means. This is the 9th in Dennis’s Brilliance of the Bible Series.
Prager H2: San Francisco considers banning the sale of all pets. This follows their attempts to ban circumcision and their bans on plastic bags, sugar drinks and Happy Meal toys. Can we call it Ban Francisco? Welcome to life where the Left has complete control… Just when you the think the Taliban can’t get any worse, they do…
Prager H1: Eastern Europe celebrates Ronald Reagan’s 100th birthday. The Poles, Czechs and others appreciate their freedom and one of the key people who helped them get it… Dennis talks to Kevin Myers, columnist for the Irish Independent, a major newspaper in Ireland. Myers tries to explain why Irish intellectuals despise Israel… Maryland mandates environmental literacy. It’s now a graduation requirement.
Prager H3: The police chief of Chicago blames institutional racism and guns for the crime in the inner city. Values? Has nothing to do with it… Dennis talks to Dan Saadon, VP of El Al Airlines, about how safe, meaningful and fun it is to travel in Israel… A columnist in Ireland wonders why European intellectuals so despise the Jewish state.
