Summary

People who suffer… ask “why me?..” Dennis asks, “why me,” when it comes to his blessings. The Taliban are outlawing women’s beauty salons in Afghanistan. It is important to have gratitude for things that are overlooked. Is there any gratitude on the Left? As Americans, we are ignorant to the way the rest of the world lives. Dennis recalls his visit as a delegate to the World Youth Assembly. Americans who are upset about racism, sexism, and homophobia do not hold other countries, where these issues exist, to any account. Dennis recalls learning who Hitler was in 7th grade. If we weaken civilization, we will fall… the Left is weakening American society. When it comes to truths about the Holocaust… it’s only been 78 years …and we have lost the lessons that should never be forgotten. Americans don’t know key parts of history… like what does Nazi stand for? What has happened to education in America? Julie has takeaways from Eric Larson’s “In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin.” Julie asks Dennis what troubled him 30 years ago… the cold war and moral relativism. If you don’t work on being good, you’ll be bad… bad is the default. We should celebrate the differences between men and women… it’s a beautiful thing! Good people have bad thoughts… it’s behavior that matters.

a lot to say you said a lot of terror on her face crossed her countenance as Charlotte

Bronte would say in Jane air. I now say that unironically. So right, this is a riot right

1:08.6

before we went on as you know, I was on OAN being interviewed and the woman who did it

1:18.4

was reviewing some stories and then went to me. One of the stories was on a a woke church

1:26.2

I believe in England. I actually thought when she said this, that it was a satire. The

1:39.0

name of the reverend was Reverend Genders. Oh gosh. So I had to do everything to stop

1:48.3

or to not laugh. Oh gosh. I have moments like that. I have to tell you when it's like don't

I've had those moments on that radio. It's very, it pertinent of me to start cracking up.

prayer doesn't tell you much. But as we were saying a few moments ago off the air, it's a really

2:35.5

good last name. You were you were blessed. I was blessed with both things. Yeah. I was blessed.

2:43.2

Do you know, God, we always amazing him getting through a serious topic so quickly. So

2:50.1

people who suffer will ask why me, which is a completely understandable question.

3:02.3

And almost as intensely as people who have some terrible thing happen and they ask why me,
