The RDL Podcast with Rabbi Daniel Lapin

The Iroquois Indians would consume the infants of a captured enemy tribe before the eyes of the agonized parents. 100% barbaric, right? An organization with the word parenthood in its name sells parts of aborted babies. Also barbaric, but not quite the same, right? Maybe 75% barbaric? High school boys in St Paul assault a teacher, leaving him lying on the ground with concussion. Also barbaric, no?...

A wicked tyrant intent on impoverishing his country and enslaving his people would come up with this diabolical plan: He’d give money to all women who give birth to a child as long as she never marries the child’s father. This ensures that the mother will be mired in drudgery and will always depend on the tyrant’s largesse. It ensures that the children will never acquire values or education thus t...

Why I regret calling Donald a “thug” and why we can all be forgiven for failing to learn from others’ mistakes. But Mr. Trump’s failure to learn from his own mistakes concerns me. Who would you prefer leading your son into The Battle of the Bulge in December 1944, General George S. Patton or Pope Francis? America is in an advanced state of decadence and depravity and we are under attack. Yes, the...

Adolf Hitler could have been Europe’s greatest statesman leading a Germany, dominant in a peaceful world. But no, he had to launch WWII. Why? His irrational obsession with Jews. The Czar could have headed off the Bolshevik Revolution and led a free and modernized Russia into the 20th century. But no, he had to obsess about Jews & distract himself with the Elders of Zion. Arabs could launch an era...

Who I’m voting for in primaries and why. Would you agree to slightly higher taxes to stop people taking their lives by jumping off a bridge in your city? Here’s why the moral answer is “No!”. You’ve heard of banks for money and banks for blood, right? Here’s why money IS your lifeblood. These are the people I’d have severely lashed. And these are the people I’d let out of prison tomorrow. Then I’d...

Pork is forbidden to Jews yet it is just as healthy as beef. So why are pigs, and other delicious dishes like crabs, lobsters, rabbits and snails prohibited to the people of Israel? What does this have to do with self-destructive sexual promiscuity? How does not eating pork help you make better financial decisions? Can people of every religious background and no religious background also benefit f...

Would you like to know exactly what the Sabbath (Shabbat) is like in Chez Lapin? For the first time, I grant you, oh privileged listener, a glimpse into how the turbulent maelstrom that we call “normal” in the Lapin household, transitions into tranquility as the sun sets on Friday. But wait! There’s more: Is women’s marital satisfaction really linked to their man’s muscle and his money? Do men sec...

Learn to prophecy and see the future. It seems as if it’s all over, but is it really? Money is losing its value. Law enforcement sometimes appears to be committing more violence than it is preventing. Vulgarity rules entertainment. Polls show nobody trusts our government. Is it time to stock up on food and ammunition? Master the principles for recognizing impending socialistic tyranny and defendin...

It’s early 2016. A socialist and a billionaire are polarizing America. One, driving in a beat-up car and dressed in what appear to be Goodwill Industries cast-offs, loathes banks and business with authentic earnestness. The other travels by private jet or helicopter and seldom misses an opportunity to express how good he feels about having made much money. Regardless of whether you find them charm...

In the Lapin household, every day is Valentine’s Day and that is how it ought to be. Setting aside only one day out of 365 to recognize and appreciate the most important person in your life ends up harming the relationship. And why do stores sell cushions and balloons shaped like hearts? Why not make the bodily organ symbolizing love the kidneys, the brain, the elbow or even the genitals? How did...

What! How dare you? No poor people in America? Are you stark, staring bonkers? Not only do you lack all compassion, but you are you a strange excuse for a rabbi. Doesn’t your faith command you to care for the poor? How dare you deny their existence! You’re such an ignoramus, you don’t you even know that over 30 million Americans live below the poverty line. I suppose you think it’s their fault. Th...

When do you start actively raising a child? 1 year-old? Birth? Conception? You’re getting close! Sex is not for making babies, it’s for making connection. A baby is an occasional happy outcome of its parents’ Godly-ordained passion for one another. Marriage’s purpose is not reproduction, it’s really the other way around. Should mom’s priority be baby or hubby? How about hubby’s priority? You’ll ne...

About 400 attendees in Chicago this past week, each invested $69 to attend a speech about whether making money is a moral and dignified activity for good and decent people to pursue. A key theme in my presentation is the explanation of why growing numbers of Americans believe the answer is a resounding “No!” Even more significant is the antidote. It was a high-energy, fun and uplifting evening and...

The spiritual significance of professional wrestling and Steven Spielberg’s 1982 movie, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. What conspicuous zippers on women’s clothing is really saying—to men! Women are interchangeable with men on nuclear submarines and in desert combat. So, why not on the golf course and tennis court? Could it be because America take sports more seriously than the military? What true th...

It’s not a coincidence that the freeway overpass collapsed, a broken gas main ignited and a ruptured water main became a geyser. It was the earthquake you slept through. Similarly, we all slept through a gigantic cultural earthquake back 1955—1965. What this colossal cultural upheaval was and how it indoctrinated America to short term thinking. Today’s pleasure is much more compelling than tomorro...

America is suffering from a serious disease. It’s true; in every generation people grumble about how the whole country has ‘Gone to hell in a hand-basket’ and about ‘How much better everything was twenty years ago.’ And they were often right. But now is different. Now by every important measurable indicator that I describe things are worse than ever before. But this is good news; for 2 reasons: (i...
