Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager, this is Dennis Prager's house. I'm trying to think of a different

way to introduce the opening. But yes, it's my house. It's a great opportunity to talk to you about

anything on my mind and on your mind, because at least half of the fireside chat, which it literally

is, is your questions. I wonder if I could take a moment of silence and can we hear auto snoring?

No, he was until I said that, but he's very bright and self-conscious. So if I announce that you're

right here, him, he stops. Oh, there it is. He started again. I want you to know it's very humbling to

I understand. But I'm not wearing it for me. I'm wearing it for you. Now, you may say,

you don't give a hoot what I wear and I believe that. I'll believe a lot of people, especially

younger people, don't give a hoot. And if I showed up in a t-shirt, theoretically, you would be
