Ep. 348 — 1776: A Legacy Worth Celebrating

On July 4, 1776, the Founders declared America's independence from Great Britain, initiating the greatest experiment in liberty in human history. However, with the decline of America’s education system, left-wing narratives like The 1619 Project, and the defamation of our Founding Fathers as nothing more than racist slave owners, the true significance of Independence Day is being forgotten by many Americans. But PragerU is changing that! Watch PragerU’s 4th of July Declaration Ceremony and download instructions to host your own. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Why is abortion termed “reproductive health” while overlooking the moral implications of ending a life? Why do we limit cigarette smoking due to health risks but show less concern for the moral consequences of alcohol abuse?

Ep. 346 — Election Integrity: Europe vs. America

In recent European elections, there were few concerns about integrity or contested results, unlike in the U.S. Could the lack of voter ID requirements in America, the replacement of paper ballots with electronic voting, and the shift from an election day to an election month suggest potential manipulation? Dennis explores what these contrasts reveal about election security in America. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ep. 341 — The Day Hamas Surrenders, This Will Happen

Every single death in Gaza is attributable to Hamas, not Israel—just as every dead German was because of the Nazis and Hitler, and every dead Japanese was due to the fascist regime in Japan during WWII. In both cases, the day Germany and Japan surrendered, the bombing stopped. The same is true today. If Hamas surrendered, not one more bomb would be dropped. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep. 340 — Smart People without Wisdom Are Fools

The world does not lack brains. There are many smart people, but few are wise. College professors are often bright, well-read, and full of knowledge, yet most are fools, and they do a lot of damage. Wisdom is everything—we need it now more than ever, but how do we get it? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ep. 339 — Genocide, Apartheid, and the Cheapening of Words

Dennis was brought to Washington, D.C. to debate those who claim Israel is an apartheid state that is committing genocide. The left understands that if you say anything enough—no matter how crazy, absurd, or factually incorrect it may be—people will believe it. That is why they toss around terms like “racism,” “apartheid,” and “genocide” without any regard for their true meaning. The left is cheapening words, destroying language, and with it, truth itself.

Ep. 337 — Iran Attacks Israel

Iran’s unprecedented direct attack on Israel should make it clear who aims to commit genocide in the Middle East. Israel, unlike Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, seeks only to live in peace.

Ep. 335 — Gender and the War on Common Sense

According to a high school teacher, a student’s statement that “only women menstruate” is merely an opinion. Why are we told to “follow the science” but then mandated to ignore basic biology? As common sense takes a backseat to subjectivity, we are witnessing the death of truth in our culture. What are the implications for society when everything—from gender to the Hamas attacks of October 7—is a matter of opinion? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ep. 334 — Hamas, Nazis, and Calling Out Evil

Why don’t people fight obvious evils? If you can’t tell that Hamas is as evil as the Nazis were, it is because you refuse to do so. It’s easy to identify evil decades after the atrocities of the Nazis, Stalin, and Mao. The trick is to call out evil while it’s happening. You have a moral obligation to do so.
