Prager H2: Dennis talks to Felice Friedson, co-founder and CEO of the The Media Line, a Middle East News Service based in Jerusalem… Should we tax sugar?

Prager H1: UCLA rejects a $3M gift given by Donald Sterling for kidney research. Ironically, the people most hurt by this foolishness are blacks who suffer disproportionately from kidney disease… The Kurds are threatened by ISIS and the US does nothing.
Prager H3: Actress Penelope Cruz and her husband, Javier Bardem, are great actors, but not great moral thinkers. They accused Israel of committing genocide; then tried to walk back their despicable comments with platitudes… The New York Times loves liberal evangelicals.
Prager H2: Valerie Jarrett casually calls a reported Israel attack at a UN facility “disgraceful.” Her comment is very revealing… The governor of Washington believes that Global Warming is killing oysters. And for that reason, he wants to change the economy of his state…
Prager H1: The government has determined that kids shouldn’t be allowed to eat sweets. Conservatives want to teach self-control. Liberals want to impose government control… To the Left, Israel is the villain and Hamas is the victim. To the Right, Hamas is the villain and Israel had no choice…
Prager H3: Open Lines: Dennis celebrates his birthday in studio, and then takes calls from listeners on any topic under the sun. Questions covered low fertility rates in Iran, Atheism in the United States, hating evil, James Garner’s passing, and why churches should speak up. Plus: the highlights of the week.
Prager H2: The Happiness Hour: Dennis asks whether birthdays should be significant. After all, you only get one every 365 days. Also: when do you celebrate if you’re born on February 29th? And Dennis gets a very special call from his son.
Prager H1: More escalation in the Middle East, which means more biased reporting by Western media. Even celebrity couple Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem are joining in, recruiting others in the Spanish film industry to condemn Israel’s strikes on Gaza. Dennis talks to Ben Shapiro about Cruz and the accusations of anti-Semitism towards her. Plus: the Wisconsin Supreme Court upholds a law ending collective bargaining for public workers, violent Islamists videotape a killing spree, and John Kerry fails in foreign policy.
Prager H3: World War I had some devastating effects on Europe, including Nazism and Communism. Now, Israel is fighting a new enemy: Islamism. Are radical Islamists the greatest evil in our current world? A caller certainly disagrees, but are death tolls really a measure of a war’s morality?
