Dr. Laura's Deep Dive Podcast

0:19.0

All right then, welcome to my new podcast where instead of taking your calls on all kinds of topics

0:26.0

for three hours, I am taking a very deep dive into one topic.

0:32.0

If you're here right now, I'm assuming it's because you really want to do the right thing in your life

0:37.0

for yourself, for your kitlets, for your spouse, loved ones, even people you don't like.

And I'm here because I want to help you always do the right thing because doing the wrong things in life

1:52.0

They're collecting money for not working. Well, fair the same thing.

1:56.0

Bail outs, getting things we haven't earned. Our country is sort of representing a bad family situation

where the bad kids who make a lot of noise get attention and are not required to do anything to become good.

2:18.0

The good guys are screwed to support the guys who aren't.

2:26.0

See this happening in families all the time. How many times? What I'm saying is America has become a dysfunctional family.

2:33.0

It wasn't, but it is now. Is there a way back? Don't think so.
