Why are American teens so miserable? According to an opinion piece in The New York Times, depression, anxiety, and suicide are on the rise among young people due to climate change, racism, and inequality. Dennis has a different view about what’s causing this mental health crisis. He shares his thoughts on life, answers your questions, and announces the release of his new Bible commentary!

Hour 1

Fireside Chat with Dennis Prager

Ep. 260 — The Teenage Mental Health Crisis

About half of Americans ages 18-39 cannot identify Auschwitz or any other Nazi death camp, even though most can probably explain preferred pronouns, intersectionality, racism, and sexism. So, why aren’t most students learning anything of importance? Dennis provides three reasons why today's young people are not being taught about real evil.

Ep. 306 — People Don’t Know Real Evil

If religion is supposed to produce good people, how can we explain religious people who are bad? Can we judge an entire religion based on its flawed and imperfect believers? After all, religion is not magic. It’s not a silver bullet and it doesn’t automatically make you happy, holy, or good. But, Dennis argues, religion does make you a better person if you want to be a better person.

Ep. 305 — How Can We Explain Bad Religious People?

What does it mean when God says about Adam and Eve, “It is not good for the man to be alone”? Many people, including Christians who share the same faith, have different points of view. Dennis responds to a pastor’s critique and shares his thoughts about whether God alone is sufficient.

Ep. 304 — Is God Alone Sufficient?

Hurricane Hilary descended upon Southern California this week, as media hysteria and alerts of “life-threatening floods” sent residents into a panic. Nearly everyone complied with instructions to shelter in place, even though one look outside would have assured any rational person there was nothing to fear. Dennis discusses this perplexing behavior and asks why people trust the government and the media more than their own eyes.

Ep. 303 — The California Hurricane Freak-Out

A recent study from the CDC reports that suicide is at an all-time high. Dennis dives into the three explanations from “the experts” as to why this is and provides his own analysis of the real problems behind this troubling statistic.

Ep 302 — Why Is Suicide at an All-Time High?

A viewer in Africa writes a thoughtful and difficult question to Dennis: Why believe in a God that allows horrible things to happen? Watch to see how Dennis responds to the idea that an all-knowing, all-loving, and all-powerful God allows us to suffer without offering any help. His answers may surprise you and might even challenge your own understanding of God.

Ep 301 — Where Is God in Tragedy?

Ep. 300 — PragerU Is Now in Schools with PragerU CEO Marissa Streit

Now that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is using the term “pregnant people” and denying one of the most basic and fundamental biological truths that women (not men) give birth, how can we trust the CDC about anything? Plus, Dennis answers viewers’ questions about dating, grief, and a perplexing verse of the Bible.

Ep. 298 — CDC Using "Pregnant People"

American society is producing children who are selfish, ungrateful, and lazy. Many adult children refuse to speak to their parents, most of whom are completely undeserving of such cruelty. Now, with the introduction of artificial intelligence, kids are cheating at school and depriving themselves of learning. Dennis examines these worsening problems in our culture and asks if knowing how to write an essay, use a camera, or drive a stick shift car will become lost arts of the past, as modern technology moves to make learning obsolete.

Ep. 297 — Our Broken Culture Is Getting Worse (A.I. Isn't Helping)

Days after the 4th of July, Dennis reflects on the meaning of patriotism at a time when we may not feel proud of the direction America is headed. Despite these feelings, however, we raise the flag for the values it represents—the American Trinity inscribed on every U.S. coin: Liberty, In God We Trust, and E Pluribus Unum. We must restore these values if America is to remain the last best hope of Earth.

Ep. 296 — America Needs American Values

This week, Dennis reads two very different letters: one from a fan who attributes Dennis with improving his life, the other from Arizona State University faculty, accusing Dennis of bigotry and hate. Sadly, many people who should hear what Dennis has to say never will because of false accusations like this, and that may be the biggest regret of his life.

Ep. 295 — My One Regret

Dennis recently visited Eastern Europe, and instead of wanting to kiss the ground upon his return home (as he always had in the past), a different thought crossed his mind. With LGBTQ “pride” taking over American culture, we have lost an innocence in our society that is still present in other parts of the world. What can we learn from comparing our beloved America—the last best hope of Earth—to Europe today?

Ep. 294 — Europe vs. America Today

According to Biblical law, Jews are forbidden to hate Egyptians—the people who held them captive in slavery for centuries. What does this ancient rule have to teach us about oppression, “white privilege,” and racism in our culture today?

Ep. 293 — The Tragedy of Being Raised to Hate

This week, Dennis reminds us you cannot have a rich life without pain. He then answers a difficult question about abortion, inspiring his wife to spontaneously share her personal experience of nearly aborting her son 13 weeks into the pregnancy. Don’t miss the powerful discussion in this unique Fireside Chat.

Ep. 292 — Want Joy? Prepare For Pain.

Today begins LGBTQ Pride Month. But viewing people through the lens of sexual orientation, race, religion, or any group at all is not beneficial to society. The left demands that radical ideologies not only be tolerated but also celebrated. Long ago, Dennis learned there are only two groups of people in the world and it has influenced his life ever since.

Ep. 291 — Pride Month: Why Do We Do This?

Are you guilty of pride if you acknowledge your strengths? Dennis has been writing and speaking to large audiences for decades. His success has taught him valuable lessons about arrogance, humility, and self-esteem that we can all benefit from when it comes to examining ourselves.
