Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prigger and this is my house, this is my fire side, this is my dog Otto,

0:05.2

who is perhaps America's most famous dog at this point. And I've told you in the past,

0:11.5

I'm going to say it low so he doesn't hear, it has not gone through his head. It's a big deal,

0:16.7

we raise our dogs with a concept of humility. And it's worked so far with Otto. What cracks me

0:26.9

up is when people meet me at airports and ask how he is. I have to admit it's not what I

0:34.0

expected in life. How is your bulldog? It's great by the way, don't hesitate to do so, it's just

0:40.4

life is funny. And you have to laugh with these unexpected funnies. Anyway, this is a chance every

0:47.5

week to just talk to you, unscripted, as I always point out, I have papers for a reason, I'm going to

0:53.3

be reading from a news item in my opening comments. So normally I open up with a concept or an idea,

1:00.9

thought, I would say, I would say deliberate about it. Yeah, that's right. And then I take your

1:09.9

questions. So it's a lot of fun for me and hopefully for you, but this is very good stuff. Incidentally,

1:16.9

that reminds me to remind you, almost none of these, really none of these are dated. If you watch

1:24.2

one, this is on an episode like 80, is it? Does that right? 85. 85. Wow, that's a lot. And if you watch

1:34.2

number 12, it'll be just as relevant. And I'll tell you, those are you who are parents,

1:42.8

you show these fireside chats to your kids like you do the Prager You videos, it will have a big

1:48.0

impact. It's certainly meant to have a big impact. And obviously it's meant to have an impact on

1:54.4

adults too. I've never found it relevant to speak differently to young people than to old people.

2:02.3

Never. And I started speaking in my 20s. I spoke the same to kids. That is my age group. As I did to

2:09.2

people twice, three times my age. And right now I speak to people a third my age, the same as I

2:15.9

speak to people my age. And then for that matter, older, I don't understand why one wouldn't.

2:22.5

If you're old enough to understand what I'm saying, then that's all that matters. Okay, anyway,

2:29.5

so I got a very, very big topic that I want to talk to you about today. So it's an article in
