Timeless Wisdom with Dennis Prager

Carl Jackson guest hosts for Dennis… Carl makes the case why this upcoming election is so important. It’s a showdown between the individual and the collective. Every conservative has to get involved.

This is a financial train wreck for ordinary citizens… There’s nothing “lunch-box” abou...

Dennis and Julie delve into how real the show is…they both agree they must be the same person on and off the air.  It’s not the actions that matter… it’s the intentions.  God judges you is a more meaningful message than God loves you.  It is also preferred that you fear God rather than loving God, when you fear God… you fear less.  The Bible states that a person should fear their mother and father...

Bob Frantz guest hosts for Dennis… MAGA is a movement.  Being a MAGA republican does not mean worshipping Donald Trump.  MAGA is a platform that includes: a nation that is safe, an economy that is strong, a future that’s built on freedom, and a government that’s accountability.  Being a police officer is a heroic job, it takes a special person to step up and be the thin blue line.  Pfizer CEO test...

All vehicles — cars and trucks — will have to be electric… The Los Angeles school district thinks that criticism of junk food is racist… The same Los Angeles school district promotes a “queer” calendar. Each month has a LGBTQI+ theme.  The tabloids are having a field day with rock star Adam Levine’s marital travails. Men must learn to control their na...

According to a NYTimes poll, 70% of people oppose teaching kids about sexual orientation and gender identity. So, why is this happening? Because the Left controls education…  Antarctica is not melting away. It’s as icy as it ever was. All media stories to the contrary are fear-mongering.  New York City is sliding into serious debt as people flee the city. The NY Times blames the “pandemic,” but if...

Queen Elizabeth’s funeral was this morning. It was full of pageantry and ritual. Human beings need these things. They bind us to our past… Sadly, Pope Francis is leftist. He is not bringing people to the Catholic Church; he’s chasing them away with his preoccupation with global warming and anti-capitalism.  Dennis attended a rodeo in Ft Worth, TX over the weekend. It’s a long way from Harvard Yard...

Mark Davis guest hosts for Dennis… Republican governors are sending illegal immigrants to Democratic strongholds: Chicago, Washington, DC, and now Martha’s Vineyard, sanctuary cities all.

Dennis talks to Marc Morano, publisher of ClimateDepot.com (great place to get science-based news on c...

His new PragerU video is “Who Cares about Illegal Immigration?”  Dennis talks to renown relationship expert, Alison Armstrong. The topic is emotions vs. feelings. What is...

Ukrainian forces have pushed the Russian Army out a good chunk of northeastern Ukraine. Will Putin now give up on his ambitions to annex the country. Not likely. More likely: the war will drag on. For his own survival, Putin can’t lose… He who has the energy wins. China is going all out for coal and laughing as the US and Western Europe commit energy suicide.  Another race hoax and once again the...

Queen Elizabeth is dead at 96.

This week Dennis asks: why is it so hard to forgive parents and move on?  Is...

What was the theme of President Biden’s very bad speech? “If I can get half the country to fear the other half, then I’ve done my job. And the NY Times will love me.” Biden did not offer a single example of how President Trump impaired democracy during his term.

And the future can tilt toward the good or the bad… The Left loves to manufacture problems like “white supremacy” and then pretend to solve them… A courageous woman in Seattle stands up for small children who were being ogled by a pervert. In our bizarro worl...

This was a phrase that was very popular liberal slogan during the George W Bush administration. But liberals didn’t mean it. Dissent is patriotic only if the dissenters are on the Left… In California if a doctor disagrees with medical orthodoxy on Covid treatment (or anything else), he can now lose his license.  Is one sex superior to the other? Does it simply depend on the context? Or can one gen...

This is a national embarrassment...  Dennis talks to PragerForce member, high school student Madison...
