Hi everybody, a relaxed Dennis Prager. I don't know, I'm always relaxed, but I'm I think a little more than

normal just sitting back here. I'm back home. I was on the road a lot. I'm on the road a lot anyway.

And it's great to be here. I was just in Dallas, in fact, just the day before, and I was doing some

um, uh, taping people interviewing me. And there was an audience and a lot of people said, how's Otto?

So I actually said, why don't you all say hi Otto when I got them on video and you'll be able to see it.

I'd like to say, I get such a kick out of the fact that this guy is sort of a celebrity. I really do. I don't,

I don't actually get a bigger kick out of that than I'm, than my being his celebrity, which

is not doesn't play a big role in my conscious daily thinking, but this guy cracks me up.

Anyway, it's great to be with you. I'm Dennis Prager in case I didn't say, this is my home, this is

the fireside chat, which we're pretty good. We don't miss a week, do we?

And with all the travel, it's amazing. We, uh, I'm very committed to this. I'm committed to this because a lot of you are committed to it.

And it's a real chance to just talk about life, give you an idea of my philosophy of life and apply it to your lives and to life generally.

It's a wonderful opportunity and I, of course, I take your questions. Last week, we figured out that we've gotten questions

from people, mostly young people, in 51 countries. And that really, I got to tell you that blew my mind.

That means that we may, we may be seen in like a hundred because that's only the places we get questions from, 51.

That's the good part of the internet. There are a lot of downsides to the internet, but there are,

it's like everything else in life, there are prices paid, there's, there's no such thing as an unmixed blessing.

You know that? Everything comes with a price. I'm trying to think is there an unmixed blessing. I guess good health.

I can't think of the downside to good health. There, there, there is, I guess this theoretically a downside.

And that is you could take it for granted. And then, then you, you're not a grateful person, but that's, that's different.

I mean, almost everything comes with a price. Let's put it that way. Maybe good health is one of the rare exceptions.

Anyway, I want to throw a thought at you that's really important. I have talked a number on a number of occasions of maybe the most important moral idea that I stand for and that I advocate.
