I find it interesting that right after the desert discussion, Dennis quickly changed the subject to women and sex. LOL! And then toward the end when the talk sways to the topic of meaning and sex, you kid him a little by saying you're giving him a hard time. I'm not sure whether or not that pun was intended... 😂
I'm a black woman and I grew up in a house that was Democrat and I listened to all the rhetoric, but at some point in my life common sense came into play.
How ass backwards do you have to be in order to think Donald Trump is "common sense" or that voting for him is somehow going to stop the dirty sjws. What the hell does your race have to do with anything? News flash people, both sides of the same coin. Trump is the swamp. The problem is people care about your race at all to begin with - notice it's all pandering.
i am 19. I grew up in a Nigerian Christian family. Found Jordan Peterson at 17 and Thomas Sowell (an other like minded economist) at 19. I had been introduced to other intellectuals before that were left leaning or liberal but Prager is correct. When you hear something that just makes sense, it stays with you and changes your values
I was the same way, minus the Nigerian part but I was liberal when I was young. My Mom drilled that garbage in my head from pretty much day 1. But at about 22 I had a good friend DESTROY all my backward Liberal beliefs in a conversation that opened my eyes and really changed my life. Sometimes I wish I never knew the truth and was still blind because the left is so Frustrating DUMB and DESTRUCTIVE. But then I'd be part of the ignorant problem in America that alows the Left to do what they do.
That is exactly why the left fears conservative speakers in colleges and protest them. They know logical thinking instead of emotionally thinking will eventually click with a lot of their students. They have to keep it away from them and control the flow of information.
Dennis Prager is one of the WISEST men on the radio. And he has influenced my life over the last 20yrs probably more than ANY other talk show host. GREAT interview Patrick!!!
As a retired teacher, my budget is limited but I never fail to support PragerU on a monthly basis. This interview is proof that my decision is a powerful one. Dennis' influence is so important. Thank you for this video. This is how we move our culture in the best direction for the future
A retired teacher literally wasting your money on something that absolutely doesn't even need your financial support.... People like Dennis Prager prey on people like you just like every other phoney religious figure out there asking for money
I left my own comment here, which would serve as a good rebuttal to your statements. You can look for it and read it if you like. Prager is just a foghorn for BS, in my not so humble opinion.
Tom Sowell is the man that changed my life. Anytime he gets mentioned, it warms my heart. He truly is an American legend and deserves all the credit in the world. Great interview, Dennis is such a great man
This interview was four years ago. I wonder how you feel about this interview now Patrick. As someone who has been on both the right and the hardcore left, I can tell you that Dennis is 1000% correct. I’ll never go back to the left again. The agenda is dangerous to the black family and society as a whole.
I am so encouraged by reactions like yours! Back in the '60s when I was an undergrad, I was a "closet conservative" because faculty and most of my fellow students were hard core leftists. I was very sympathetic to the Civil rights movement and appalled by what was going on in the South at the hands of white ruling class Democrats. Following the Voting Rights Act of 1964, resisted and filibustered against by Southern AND Northern Democrat Senators, I was shocked by how Johnson's paternalistic Great Society poverty programs began to destroy the integrity of black families. I'm thrilled at the growing political emergence of prominent conservative African-Americans like Starr Parker, Winsome Sears, Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Leo Tyrrell, Candace Owens, Jason Riley, Shelby Steele, Burgess Owens, Tim Scott, Larry Elder, Deroy Murdoch, Kevin Cork, Lawrence Taylor, Ben Carson, Clarence Thomas, Glen Loury, Hershel Walker, the late greats, Herman Cain and Walter Williams, Dineen Borrelli, and you add more, the bench is deep and getting deeper. I think Frederick Douglass, George Washington Carver, Dr. King, and maybe even Malcolm X would be pleased.
@@bearowen5480 Great comment however please stop saying “African American”. This is a nonsense phrase made up by race hustler Jessie Jackson to divide us. We are all Americans. No modifiers needed.
I absolutely agree with you. I too was once on the left. Now that I'm older, wiser and with life experience, I see through all the smoke and mirrors that the left uses to keep a strong hold on people. No more! They are destroying everything around us and as a free American, I will not tolerate that. As a once newly arrived immigrant, my family arrived here because of the greatness of this country. Now people are LITERALLY thinking of leaving because of how bad the Democrat party is stripping us of our freedoms and destroying everything they tough. At this rate, it will not end well for this once great nation.
Around the time of this interview, Prager may have been on board the Lolita Express with his good buddy, (and frequent flyer), Alan Dershowitz, who also has screwed up views about women.
I love listening to people whose thoughts all tie together harmoniously. “Preach what you practice” is brilliant. Prager is and unflinching, honest leader.
PBD is a fantastic interviewer. No softball questions but everything delivered with respect. Stops the guest from wandering, moving the goalposts, waxing poetic but does it in a way that is neither abrasive nor abrupt. Bravo sir!
I would have pushed back on Dennis when it came to the discussion of capitalism. Like a conservative, he over glorifies it and doesn’t give an honest analysis of it. It’s the typical half truths.
@@jameseverett9037 plenty, especially on the topic of finances and capitalism. Never a surprise. Everyone seems to have an agenda and a perceived narrative, that needs to be pushed heavily.
Why does everyone in these comments suck pats nuts? Like he the God tier interviewer/journalist this goof ball repeats himself constantly, doesn't seem to have the span to pay attention or even understand the higher intellectual conversation, rambles on asks questions that make no sense. I can go on PBD was a terrible host/interviewer back in the day n I love Dennis and pbd recent ones he's been growing on me. Still same kindle repetitive speech but not like this. Bravo pbd for the progress. ❤
Like trump and like Biden and everyone else running for president. You should look at what the current administration has done to destroy this country since they are the people currently running the show
Prague believe idiotic shit . No such thing as rational Bible. Marrying ppl same “faith” not always true it’s kindness that makes relationships work. Prague has been known to preach some radical religious fundamentalist. Religion is relic of the past . The problem is Prague doesn’t believe limited government he doesn’t talk about ending the drug war. Religion and government sometimes together one places nazis recruited Christians . This guy Is a fundamentalist. Being good to him is being religious fanatic
Dennis Praeger , Jordan Peterson and Thomas Sowell are one of the most brilliant minds of our times ...and doubled by outstanding characters ...a brilliant mind is nothing without a good heart and character
Fact: The founders of America defined Americans as "WHITE persons of good character.". Race AND values are both essential. Prager and Shapiro deny the founding values of America and hold in contempt anyone today who agree with the 1790 immigration policy. They are liars and revisionists.
lorem ipsum " This law limited naturalization to immigrants who were free White persons of good character. It thus excluded American Indians, indentured servants, slaves, free blacks and later Asians, although free blacks were allowed citizenship at the state level in certain states." Yes, founding value of America was racism and slavery, which some of you still cherish, even after all this years.
It changed my life when I found out you don't have to have any academic creds to start a fake university spouting propaganda. All you have to have is backers with deep pockets. rewire.news/article/2015/04/30/conservatives-spend-millions-proselytizing-school-children/
@@mediator_room -- Let's pretend there is such a thing as racism, as you claim. Okay, then why does Prager lie about America and pretend it was founded on "values"? Because Prager is a liar as I already said. You agree. Conservatives today are liberals just as Prager says. Prager is a revisionist and liar.
@@michaelkraus4135 yes, Michael, I was. He died in 1978, and I still miss him terribly every day of my life. I look forward to being reunited with him and my other deoarted loved ones in the next life. Dr. Eben Alexander's "Proof Of Heaven" gives me reassurance about that.
@@michaelkraus4135 I do, Michael. I treasure the rare private conversations I had with him when I was a young, still somewhat rebellious young man. It was then that he shared some of the painful events he had endured after the loss of his father at age 7, and during the Great Depression when he had to drop out of medical school without attaining his MD in order to support my mom and older brother. In those talks he refrained from giving me advice for my future life with two exceptions: as a mayor in a small farming town of 3,000 souls, drafted into the position by the city council when no one else would run for the position, he advised me: "Don't ever get involved in small town politics!" And in another conversation he told me that whenever life hands you lemons, make lemonade out of them. Both turned out to be solidly good advice! We moved away to the big city when Dad got promoted to CEO of a large insurance company. Nevertheless, I have always attended class reunions with the people I grew up with in that small town. At one of those reunions I was approached by a member of a graduating class two years ahead of ours. He introduced himself as the son of one of my father's business competitors from the time of my childhood. I remembered both him and his dad. He said, "I just wanted to tell you that when your family moved away, my dad said of your dad, 'this town will never be as good without him', and he was right". It made me very proud, and we both teared up. It was one of the greatest accolades of many I heard addressed to my dad over the years of his service to industry, community, and church. I just wished he could have lived long enough for me to have related it to him.
PBD hitting yet another home run with this interview. He has a way of getting these phenomenal conversations out of most of his guests and he does it so effortlessly. Keep em coming.
“It is wiser for a woman in her 20s to look for a husband than to just chase a career.” I love hearing this from Dennis Prager. It is so refreshing and something you never hear! I’m so glad I realized this when I was in my early 20s.
Why don't you ask all those women who sacrified their career and became a stay at home mom in their 20s just to be later exchanged for a younger woman and end up with nothing?
Wow...it's SUCH a treat to see these two sit together talking. I'm a big admirer of both. I had no idea they knew each other, but am very glad they do.
Patrick you and Dennis had a brilliant conversation. I just hope most people can get it. And also realize how great this country and the true freedom of speech is when two rational people can sit down and have a great open discussion on politics, religion and moral conversation. I really enjoyed this interview.
No. Freedom of speech is when people can come together to question government without the government attempting to use power to quiet those people. WTF?
“My professors were brilliant but had almost no wisdom. They taught me that men and women are basically the same. You can be brilliant and believe that but you can’t be wise and believe that.“ 00:25:31
I was a born, raised 3rd generation liberal until I grew up and started listening Dennis on the radio on my way home from work. It took a couple of years but I’m now a conservative.
I used to be independent, I didn't like politics and I still don't. There's corruption on both sides. I liked JFK & RFK (but apparently, both were morally corrupt). I loved Reagan but couldn't stand the Bush’s. I didn't care for Trump but voted for him to cast my vote against Hillary, but now I love Trump. This administration has opened my eyes for the first time when they let their true colors be known. Thank God for DJT; I can't believe how he has hung in there after all he's been through. He's revealed things about this administration that have shocked us all. Trump has done more for us than any President in my lifetime. O’Biden and this communist regime have committed treason over and over again. We have to stop this Tyranny, that the left has us put us under before it is too late. I just pray that America can hold up until 2025. Biden’s administration is the most corrupt evil regime in history. Stop Vanguard, State Street, Black Rock; Fink, Soros, Schwartz, Schwab, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Gates Pelosi, Obama, Clinton, Bush, Mayorkas, Garland, Wray, etc. from destroying our Constitution, and our Country. May God bless Donald J. Trump, Tucker Carlson, and Roman Balmakov (Facts Matter & Epoch Times), Judge Jeanne, Jesse Watters, Mark Levin, Candace Owens, Dr. Rand Paul, Josh Hawley, Larry Elder, Ted Cruz, Dr. Ben Carson, Mathew Brown, Harris Faulkner, Laura Ingraham, Charlie Kirk, Dennis Prager, Ron DeSantis, etc. May God have mercy on America & and open our eyes. 🇺🇸
Do you think that this assertion of yours should have you consider, or even may have made you convert from Islam? I raise the question for obvious REASON, and not to be controversial. It's a truth question.

Patrick, you should be commended for the guests you have on. Not many business-related content producers would welcome potential controversy - Prager, Alex Jones etc. These are fair, balanced discussions where people can take away their own conclusions.
WifeOfTheBeast astute observation and correct . If not for the “wife” moniker my mind would probably be attracted to your gorgeous mind and find it irresistible. Thanks for the “heads up”, Lol , havin’ fun only
Prager has to live in his own little bubble to be such a corny douchebag. Does he realize he is such a living caricature that he is identical to the rich asshole in The Big Lebowski? He’s a walking comedy.
Four years after this conversation. I was interested in Pat's observation of 'artsy' people being more emotional and liberal leaning. I would have classified myself this way, especially an art studio major. But after having kids, I was assulted with the harsh reality that the state wants to claim ownership over the next generation. This passion for protecting my family he as absolutely propelled me into the 'right' camp.
Everything I do is in the arts , but I've never leaned to the Left. And I have noticed that most of my artist friends are either strong Left or Strong Right, though far fewer on the Right. However there is something else I have observed about those that lean Left, because I've always wanted to understand what makes a person lean to 1 side or the other, which is what Pat was trying to get at in the video. But I think Patrick was unprepared to hear the answer, and Dennis knew better than to go there [ if he understands what it is]. There is a short-sightedness, and stubbornness, much like a child having a tantrum, where they insist, and want something all the more, as you try to explain why it's not a good idea. They become offended, and resort to accusing you of only wanting to deprive them of something, rather than trying to understand that it's in their best interest. Thus they equate disagreement with 'hate'. There's a refusal to consider any possibility that there's a good motive behind the disagreement. I doubt that anyone on youtube will ever really get into the bottom line differences, because it's too polarizing and hard to convince anyone on the Left of the basic psychological deception involved.
@@jameseverett9037 Using Prager's analogy...the left is the child that would eat the cheesecake, but have a tantrum if the wise dad (right) does not allow it. So blinded by their craving that there is no possible reasoning with them.
I've been watching Dennis for years...I just seen this . Now I know why he is what he is. Americans raise your children with this. Thank you Mr. Prager
This was a great discussion. They agreed on quite a bit but pat does an impeccable job of pushing who he interviews, not to insult or bully, but to test. I feel he wants to just get the best and the most certain responses out of people. Very important episode.
I really genuinely thank God in my heart for Dennis Prager. He is a gift to Western civilization in our time. And I respect Bet-David for respectfully debating and arguing with him. That gives me hope that the wisdom of men like Prager will be passed on, even if the West doesn't survive.
Dennis Prager is the man for all seasons. Great intellectual with common sense, speaks with confidence of his beliefs. Thank you for this interview!🙂🇺🇸
@@husseinali-ei6ft @Christopher Freeze: An interesting example to choose. WHY? Because a tomato has a combination of aspects of both vegetables and fruits. Also, who says tomato does not go together with fruits or which fruits. Example: Avocado is a fruit, clearly. Tomato and avocado go together well. Would You put avocado together with peaches, nectarines, pears, apples citrus?? Which other fruits would You put together with tomato? Some would put pineapple together with tomato and some will not. Also some have differences in tastes and combinations. Sincerely Perhaps We can conjure and conceive of better examples to show knowledge compared with wisdom Dennis used a different word that knowledge, but could include it, as the Patrick used "Smart", which is often similar to intelligent [actually a potential[, not of just knowledge rather of thinking abilities. There is more details to describe and define the differences Dennis is explaining. He knows also there are several types and aspects of thought and thought processes. He is attempting to simplify them into one as used; "Smart". Wisdom is one of the types of thoughts which also has aspects of combination of others and also coming from The Creator, specifically in certain ways and paths. Actually, all forms, types of thoughts, thinking, thinking processes come from the creator including the thoughts themselves. However, this is probably difficult for most to accept, just yet. Sincerely
@@newtonfirefly3584 interesting pov but according to the supreme court of 1893 tomatoes were classified as vegetables and sold under that category because of its culinary applications but botanically yes it could be a fruit but it bears no applications nor coherence to any fruit combination
@@husseinali-ei6ft correct there are both biotanic aspects of a tomato. My comments listed combinations of tomato with a few fruits that are common or acceptable to many.
🎉Thank you Patrick for having this Conversation with Dennis. Dennis Prager is one of my Top 3 people I respect, appreciate and trust their wisdom. Mahatma Gandhi, Golda Meir and Dennis Prager. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🌟
Yes, people can agree to disagree. Everything does not have to be a battle. We all have somethings of value, pieces of the puzzle of solution, we learn from one another when we chill out and listen even after we do not agree with something. The Bible talks of the gifts of the spirit. Graciously learn what these are and see how many you have acquired as of yet
Dennis, Your Book "Think a Second Time" has been a guided tour to all things political in my life. I am now in my 80's and your guide posts are as reverent as when I first studied your classic teachings. Thank You
Patrick your interviews, videos and the way you conduct your self and ask questions is brilliant. I really enjoying watching you have conversations with people and having my mind changed or at the least questioning my own beliefs and opinions.
In my opinion, honoring your parents is not only being respectful to them, but bestowing honor upon them through your actions and interactions with people who are not your parents. It honors them by demonstrating that they gave you a proper upbringing. So, the command holds two meanings.
@@megarancher91 the key is respect, regardless how your parent/s may or may not be, should not be a reason for degrading yourself by being disrespectful. A person of dignity can learn & mature to rise above hardships. This doesn’t mean to allow them to break boundaries & be abusive.
@TheSpirit AndTheBride good to hear your life is improving and that is a better answer than what I got. Raised roman Catholic and when asking this question pretty much the answer was. "Well god is our father. So parents and adults should live just lives to honor God". I know well enough not to talk back but in my head I remembered all the people who did the exact opposite of what god wanted in the bible and thought " yeah, that does not seem to work out so well..."

"Preach what you practice" Dennis Prager, you're a genius! I can relate so deeply with this. You just gave me the right words! Thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
@@jaredstark231 While I may (or may not, for the record) be a "silly goose", it might so happen that Dennis Prager got the "Silly Goose" award for chastising all those loose and wayward broads in high school who wouldn't give him a second look.
I don't understand why people unlike this video it's an amazing conversation. Patrick does a good job pushing Dennis's beliefs. I wish we all did this around the country.
Watch and learn how it is done with finesse. We all need to enter into dialog with one another rather than incite riotous attitudes. The Bible states, "An answer when mild turns away wrath." Loads of insightful mind renewing wisdom in the pages of the Holy Bible.
The ones that unlike are probably leftists. 🙄Followers of Maoist, Marxist and Castro type idiologies. Prager is right the leftists don't make sense and ade now devoid of reason. It's all about disrupting and tearing down.
@@THEROOTMATTERS "The wicked flee when no man pursueth " exposes the Left's behavior in a depth rarely discussed, as well as the defensiveness and over-reactiveness of most people today.
I’ve been listening to Dennis Prager since the 1990s on KABC. Dennis Prager is among the most insightful/wisest people in the world. He’s on 870AM Monday-Friday. Patrick is one the best interviewers and also a wise man like Dennis Prager.
I’m subscribed to Prager U. To be fair, the majority of my family are either centre left, or leftist. I’m the outlier because I’m a free thinker, and I questioned why things happen the way they do and found that I align way more with conservative values (and I’m Black). Unfortunately I cannot have discussions with them as it becomes too heated. Still this was a very interesting discussion!
Valuetainment I like to know all sides and have discussions to try to understand why people think the way they do. I just happen to be right-leaning. It just results in arguments and people walking away- it’s all love though :)
Deeniece Browne same. I just really don't subscribe to the parties full of men that feel they are the authority on a woman's body. His little comment about rape culture not being true rubbed me the wrong way. If we had actual logical women on the right who didn't go straight to condemnation I would support that. All parties have their issues I suppose. My family is Democrat, since we're Latino.
Dee A. I agree! All parties have their issues and blanket statements should not be made. I don’t agree with everything he says, just the majority of it :) I’ve had friends who unfortunately have been raped in the terms the dictionary would define it, however the definition has been expanded to mean things such as cat-calling to be taken as ‘sexual assault’ which I can’t agree with. It diminishes the true meaning of rape and skews stats. I think that’s what he means (but he put it a lot stronger).
I love these "Christian" universities, well, formerly and only in name like TCU is now who are nothing more than idiot mills cranking out useless piles of human waste.
Dennis Prager has positively affected my world for my whole life. Like I started listening to him when I was 11 and about to be taken from my parents by the court. Two main messages Dennis preached that hit home the most is: -- 1. Debating people that he disagreed with, he would start with . . . I'm not interested in Changing you opinion but discuss civility where and why we agree and disagree for my listeners. -- 2. His happiness hour on fridays are ABSOLUTELY life changing. With that said, I feel you are the modern centrist version of Dennis Prager. I love you pushed my hero and both you and he walked off the interview with a higher regard in my view. God bless you both!!
What Prager said about one’s ego not being attached to one’s opinion is spot on. That’s a hallmark of an intelligent (or, perhaps better, “wise”) person. I see this error on social media all the time, where most people won’t admit to being wrong ever, regardless of the evidence.
This has been one of the most mind opening source of wisdom I have ever watched. This video should be shown in every school and given to every educator to share . Thank you so much for sharing this with US . I will share to all I meet . This is how Congress should view and act on every issue .
As a POC who was raised in a very left leaning family. I was raised with very left leaning ideals, and believed them until my mid 20s. In my 20s I began to challenge my own ideals and investigated both sides of the debate. I intentionally looked for the best arguments from both sides on every topic and I weighed them against the results of the differences in those ideals. At the end of the the day I became a very strong Constitutional Libertarian, who is very Conservative friendly. I also went from an atheist to a Christian. I genuinely believe a person willing to look at the data and analyze it, look at the results of the differences in ideas, weigh which of the ideas are consistent with logic and reason. If you do that it will lead you toward more conservative ideals.
@@carlosidelone8064 We’re raised with certain personal beliefs; and political, social, and religious customs. That can interfere. We need to let go of our past, die completely out of this world, and sin. Some people are raised that you have to wear a tie, and some believe that it is to wear a tie. Put these personal prejudices aside; pray and read the Bible, let it be your guide. We need to seek God first with all our hearts; He will show us the way. He’s the truth, the way, and the life. May God bless all that seek Him, and do His will. Praise the Lord.
I discovered Dennis on PragerU during the lockdowns of 2020, and he was very interesting and encouraging to me. God got me through those difficult times watching Dennis and his common sense views! ❤
Interestingly enough I encountered Dennis Prager on my first day at college. Probably saved my life. He has been and continues the most wise man in America, from my perspective.
You do such amazing interviews. Being able to hang with some big name intellectually, knowing when to talk, and when to let the interviewee take over to speak.
This interview, even after several years, is still significant, influential, and concise. It would be great to see Mr. Prager on the PBD podcast again; that would be perfect. Greetings from Croatia.
@Alex M you clearly are not a nuanced thinker. You're part of the problem, nothing to add but you think trolling people to make yourself feel good is the same as making a moral point.
@AJ now go tell that to the academics teaching people there is no difference between fruit. The law makers that pass laws that penalize you for saying apples are not oranges.
I love how he admitted he has no proof of god. Then blasts people for not having evidence for ther belief or non believers. 0.07 % of violent criminals in federal prison are atheist. 99.3 % sure believers. I think Americans are safe living with atheist.
Prager doesn't have a thought in his mind. Biased and lobbied and influenced by money. He strawman argumentation to negatively spread misinformation. He makes money off of propaganda. He is a conservative demagogue and has no values beyond making money for controversial points.
Everyone would like to get Sowell. He doesn’t do many interviews. I would agree that Sowell should be a prime target though. It’s too bad that Sowell and his work aren’t more accessible than they are.
The guy is fucking serious man. My first words out of my mouth. Said with a respectful amazed tone of voice. What a great conversation. My brain and my mind were aligned, told me to stop what I was doing and pay attention to this thought provoking ,confirming conversation. Thanks guys.
Dennis is correct in saying conservatives are the side of logic. He’s also right saying people can see that truth and change their political perspective. A lot of people become conservative as they gain life experience.
As people get older and "wiser", they also end up in rocking chairs unable to face the realities imparted by the changing tides. In Dennis' case: he long ago found his niche as a cranky old bit of spinoff Rush Limbo flatulence and it's been his Cuban cigar and bulldog-supporting lifeblood and money-maker ever since.
This is absolutely true that's why Democrats want to lower the voting age to 16 only way they can get elected is through children and illegal immigrants that should tell you something
I figured out a long time ago that it is wisdom that makes a person intelligent - not being a walking encyclopedia. Knowledge is important but it's how you learn from it and process the information. This is why a man with a very high I.Q. with no wisdom, is basically an idiot. I have a friend who can tell you all kinds of knowledgeable things but talk to him about politics and just simple commonsense answers and you'd think his I.Q. is that of a retard.
I appreciate this man understanding the difference between a liberal and a leftist. I also appreciate that he acknowledged the lack of actual liberal representation when it comes to well known people having a voice on media. We are literally not represented. Instead we deal with leftists using the liberal umbrella and then I get to hear fox going off blaming liberals for everything.
This interview is from a few years ago and for many of us we saw the difference between liberals and leftists . most conservatives I know today are more liberal than those that claim to be liberal democrats today! They are leftist/progressives in reality!
Yes, Yes, Yes! I’ve argued this for years now! The democrat party is no longer a liberal party, at least not using the classic liberal definition. It is still remarkable to me but over the last 8-12 years I have found more in common, politically and culturally, with those running/following republicans than those running/following democrats. Which is completely unbelievable to me.
That is no big deal .. you can have a meaningful dicussion with pretty much everyone as long as you dont represent, for example a country like Iran that threatens to wipe your nation "off the map".
@@reprogrammingmind the purim story was focused in persia which is iran today. look up the book of esther in the old testament. the main place where jews were in that time was in iran. only since 1980 with the islamic revolution the jews had to flee.

Chase Wood For example, most conservatives believe it is not okay to burn the flag even though flag burning is protected under the constitution. They choose to get upset with this and argue with emotion. The same way that most conservatives will argue with emotion regarding NFL players kneeling during the national anthem
@@dudebob9779 that makes sense however, many conservatives will admit it's completely fine under the law, but it's the symbolism behind it, (for me I do not like the burning of the flag because my great grandfather died in war and our family was given the flag to honor him , while his war mates handed my grandmother the flag they played the national anthem to pay respects and honor his service to our Nation , thats why I see it as disrespectful)doing a controversial act and it being protected by the constitution doesn't mean you are protected by the backlash. It's completely fine under the constitution to say the N word or to burn the LGBT flag BUT no one is exempt from the backlash especially when people literally die for the flag(not like yk "they fought for the country so they fought for the flag" but many people have died while undergun fire and refused to drop or leave the flag). So that argument specifically is an emotional one for Patriots not specifically conservatives.
Chase Wood I see your point and I’m sorry about your grandfather. My father also fought in the Iraq war and suffers tremendously from it. An example I thought of conservatives using emotion is with the BLM protests. In my experience a lot of conservatives deny and form of systemic racism, which is backed by a tremendous amount of evidence, I see conservatives rant about BLM using emotional arguments to oppose BLM.
@John wayne How is a con man please explain.. fucken brainwashed lol. How is this a thing where you can just throw something and say without any argument to support it whatsoever...

Fantastic stuff, really interesting ............... in a word "Polaroid".
Great interview.
People are influenced by their environment but evolve and make changes due to changes in life experiences.
I find it interesting that right after the desert discussion, Dennis quickly changed the subject to women and sex. LOL! And then toward the end when the talk sways to the topic of meaning and sex, you kid him a little by saying you're giving him a hard time. I'm not sure whether or not that pun was intended... 😂

KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov's warning to America - UA-cam
I'm a black woman and I grew up in a house that was Democrat and I listened to all the rhetoric, but at some point in my life common sense came into play.
BLACKFIRSTDEALWITHIT BLACK common sense leads to wisdom
@@jondavis6302 sadly common sense just isn't that common
Congrats my family won’t speak to me
BLACKFIRSTDEALWITHIT BLACK that’s good
How ass backwards do you have to be in order to think Donald Trump is "common sense" or that voting for him is somehow going to stop the dirty sjws. What the hell does your race have to do with anything?
News flash people, both sides of the same coin. Trump is the swamp. The problem is people care about your race at all to begin with - notice it's all pandering.
i am 19. I grew up in a Nigerian Christian family. Found Jordan Peterson at 17 and Thomas Sowell (an other like minded economist) at 19. I had been introduced to other intellectuals before that were left leaning or liberal but Prager is correct. When you hear something that just makes sense, it stays with you and changes your values
TRUTH HAS A CERTAIN RING...
I was the same way, minus the Nigerian part but I was liberal when I was young. My Mom drilled that garbage in my head from pretty much day 1. But at about 22 I had a good friend DESTROY all my backward Liberal beliefs in a conversation that opened my eyes and really changed my life. Sometimes I wish I never knew the truth and was still blind because the left is so Frustrating DUMB and DESTRUCTIVE. But then I'd be part of the ignorant problem in America that alows the Left to do what they do.
Well then complement your journey with mark Passio
That is exactly why the left fears conservative speakers in colleges and protest them. They know logical thinking instead of emotionally thinking will eventually click with a lot of their students. They have to keep it away from them and control the flow of information.
You are brainwashed. Go get help.
Dennis Prager is one of the WISEST men on the radio. And he has influenced my life over the last 20yrs probably more than ANY other talk show host. GREAT interview Patrick!!!
As a retired teacher, my budget is limited but I never fail to support PragerU on a monthly basis. This interview is proof that my decision is a powerful one. Dennis' influence is so important. Thank you for this video. This is how we move our culture in the best direction for the future
dont support it
@@heckoff450 ? No explanation ?
Never forget, we older people only have limited income if we don't take advantage of all the opportunities there are for increasing wealth.
A retired teacher literally wasting your money on something that absolutely doesn't even need your financial support.... People like Dennis Prager prey on people like you just like every other phoney religious figure out there asking for money
I left my own comment here, which would serve as a good rebuttal to your statements. You can look for it and read it if you like. Prager is just a foghorn for BS, in my not so humble opinion.
Tom Sowell is the man that changed my life. Anytime he gets mentioned, it warms my heart. He truly is an American legend and deserves all the credit in the world.
Great interview, Dennis is such a great man
It is an outrage that we do not have a Sowell School of economics at a major university.
I love Thomas Sowell too! I'm So glad he is alive and well I hope...
Prager is BRILLANT!!! HE AND I HAVE THE MIND!!! ITS VERY RARE AND LONLEY BECAUSE ITS RARE.
NO PERSON IS TRULY WISE WHO DOESNT KNOW JESUS IS THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD BECAUSE HE IS THE ONLY ESCAPE FROM HELL ON EARTH AND HELL FOREVER.
I met Thomas Sowell many years ago. He changed my life as well.
This interview was four years ago. I wonder how you feel about this interview now Patrick. As someone who has been on both the right and the hardcore left, I can tell you that Dennis is 1000% correct. I’ll never go back to the left again. The agenda is dangerous to the black family and society as a whole.
Good for you. 👍
I am so encouraged by reactions like yours! Back in the '60s when I was an undergrad, I was a "closet conservative" because faculty and most of my fellow students were hard core leftists. I was very sympathetic to the Civil rights movement and appalled by what was going on in the South at the hands of white ruling class Democrats. Following the Voting Rights Act of 1964, resisted and filibustered against by Southern AND Northern Democrat Senators, I was shocked by how Johnson's paternalistic Great Society poverty programs began to destroy the integrity of black families. I'm thrilled at the growing political emergence of prominent conservative African-Americans like Starr Parker, Winsome Sears, Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Leo Tyrrell, Candace Owens, Jason Riley, Shelby Steele, Burgess Owens, Tim Scott, Larry Elder, Deroy Murdoch, Kevin Cork, Lawrence Taylor, Ben Carson, Clarence Thomas, Glen Loury, Hershel Walker, the late greats, Herman Cain and Walter Williams, Dineen Borrelli, and you add more, the bench is deep and getting deeper. I think Frederick Douglass, George Washington Carver, Dr. King, and maybe even Malcolm X would be pleased.
@@bearowen5480 I concur.
@@bearowen5480 Great comment however please stop saying “African American”. This is a nonsense phrase made up by race hustler Jessie Jackson to divide us. We are all Americans. No modifiers needed.
I absolutely agree with you. I too was once on the left. Now that I'm older, wiser and with life experience, I see through all the smoke and mirrors that the left uses to keep a strong hold on people. No more! They are destroying everything around us and as a free American, I will not tolerate that. As a once newly arrived immigrant, my family arrived here because of the greatness of this country. Now people are LITERALLY thinking of leaving because of how bad the Democrat party is stripping us of our freedoms and destroying everything they tough. At this rate, it will not end well for this once great nation.
This is FANTASTIC interview. The more I listen to Dennis Prager, the more I realize he’s a brilliant, wise, and moral man!
Hah
PragerU is nonsense
Same exact talking points still on point 4 years later. The guy was dead on with everything.
Around the time of this interview, Prager may have been on board the Lolita Express with
his good buddy, (and frequent flyer), Alan Dershowitz, who also has screwed up
views about women.
but does nothing
I love listening to people whose thoughts all tie together harmoniously. “Preach what you practice” is brilliant. Prager is and unflinching, honest leader.
PBD is a fantastic interviewer. No softball questions but everything delivered with respect. Stops the guest from wandering, moving the goalposts, waxing poetic but does it in a way that is neither abrasive nor abrupt. Bravo sir!
Seriously... PBD is a master of charisma.
I would have pushed back on Dennis when it came to the discussion of capitalism. Like a conservative, he over glorifies it and doesn’t give an honest analysis of it. It’s the typical half truths.
@@Mmoselle1983 what did he say that was half truth?
@@jameseverett9037 plenty, especially on the topic of finances and capitalism. Never a surprise. Everyone seems to have an agenda and a perceived narrative, that needs to be pushed heavily.
Why does everyone in these comments suck pats nuts? Like he the God tier interviewer/journalist this goof ball repeats himself constantly, doesn't seem to have the span to pay attention or even understand the higher intellectual conversation, rambles on asks questions that make no sense. I can go on PBD was a terrible host/interviewer back in the day n I love Dennis and pbd recent ones he's been growing on me. Still same kindle repetitive speech but not like this. Bravo pbd for the progress. ❤
Public conversations that are honest and enriching are so uncommon. Its wonderful and encouraging to hear you two speak. Beautiful, thank you
I love that when the pressure is on, Dennis doesn't reverse himself. Very good interview, all politicians should be interviewed this way.
Instead of dancing around the issue, like Trump, he digs right in and defend himself.
Like trump and like Biden and everyone else running for president. You should look at what the current administration has done to destroy this country since they are the people currently running the show
@@Dave-te5bs rent free...
This is why I say if CNN hires PBD and give him his own show their ratings will be off the charts...he is an excellent interviewer.
Prague believe idiotic shit . No such thing as rational Bible. Marrying ppl same “faith” not always true it’s kindness that makes relationships work. Prague has been known to preach some radical religious fundamentalist. Religion is relic of the past . The problem is Prague doesn’t believe limited government he doesn’t talk about ending the drug war. Religion and government sometimes together one places nazis recruited Christians . This guy Is a fundamentalist. Being good to him is being religious fanatic
Dennis Praeger , Jordan Peterson and Thomas Sowell are one of the most brilliant minds of our times ...and doubled by outstanding characters ...a brilliant mind is nothing without a good heart and character
And common sense.
Prager, absolutely not.
Jordan Peterson and Thomas Sowell are Brilliant.
Dennis Prager not even close
@@j.p.7298Agree. He really has duped Evangelicals for sure.
Are you kidding me??? You obviously don't have any idea what the Talmudic Jew feels about the Gentiles. Look into it.
It changed my life when I heard, "facts don't care about your feelings".
google "truthiness"
Fact: The founders of America defined Americans as "WHITE persons of good character.". Race AND values are both essential. Prager and Shapiro deny the founding values of America and hold in contempt anyone today who agree with the 1790 immigration policy. They are liars and revisionists.
lorem ipsum " This law limited naturalization to immigrants who were free White persons of good character. It thus excluded American Indians, indentured servants, slaves, free blacks and later Asians, although free blacks were allowed citizenship at the state level in certain states." Yes, founding value of America was racism and slavery, which some of you still cherish, even after all this years.
It changed my life when I found out you don't have to have any academic creds to start a fake university spouting propaganda. All you have to have is backers with deep pockets.
rewire.news/article/2015/04/30/conservatives-spend-millions-proselytizing-school-children/
@@mediator_room -- Let's pretend there is such a thing as racism, as you claim. Okay, then why does Prager lie about America and pretend it was founded on "values"? Because Prager is a liar as I already said. You agree. Conservatives today are liberals just as Prager says. Prager is a revisionist and liar.
Dennis Prager is my late Dad times 100. What a blessing of kindness, selflessness, good works, and above all, wisdom.
Then you were VERY BLESSED BEAR !
@@michaelkraus4135 yes, Michael, I was. He died in 1978, and I still miss him terribly every day of my life. I look forward to being reunited with him and my other deoarted loved ones in the next life. Dr. Eben Alexander's "Proof Of Heaven" gives me reassurance about that.
@@bearowen5480 Don't cry because he is gone , smile because you had him.
@@michaelkraus4135 I do, Michael. I treasure the rare private conversations I had with him when I was a young, still somewhat rebellious young man. It was then that he shared some of the painful events he had endured after the loss of his father at age 7, and during the Great Depression when he had to drop out of medical school without attaining his MD in order to support my mom and older brother. In those talks he refrained from giving me advice for my future life with two exceptions: as a mayor in a small farming town of 3,000 souls, drafted into the position by the city council when no one else would run for the position, he advised me: "Don't ever get involved in small town politics!" And in another conversation he told me that whenever life hands you lemons, make lemonade out of them. Both turned out to be solidly good advice!
We moved away to the big city when Dad got promoted to CEO of a large insurance company. Nevertheless, I have always attended class reunions with the people I grew up with in that small town. At one of those reunions I was approached by a member of a graduating class two years ahead of ours. He introduced himself as the son of one of my father's business competitors from the time of my childhood. I remembered both him and his dad. He said, "I just wanted to tell you that when your family moved away, my dad said of your dad, 'this town will never be as good without him', and he was right". It made me very proud, and we both teared up. It was one of the greatest accolades of many I heard addressed to my dad over the years of his service to industry, community, and church. I just wished he could have lived long enough for me to have related it to him.
I just love listening to Dennis Prager. This was a very good and meaningful discussion.

@@TruthTroubadour-xi9cc Well then, that Dennis Prager is a real Buddhist Rush Limbo lite, ain't he not?
@LJ W; Dennis Prager's point is to Preach, Speak as You live.
“It is wiser for a woman in her 20s to look for a husband than to just chase a career.” I love hearing this from Dennis Prager. It is so refreshing and something you never hear! I’m so glad I realized this when I was in my early 20s.
Why don't you ask all those women who sacrified their career and became a stay at home mom in their 20s just to be later exchanged for a younger woman and end up with nothing?

I appreciate you how you let your guest speak although you don't agreed with him. That's takes self control and class. You are a great show host.
Patrick you and Dennis had a brilliant conversation. I just hope most people can get it. And also realize how great this country and the true freedom of speech is when two rational people can sit down and have a great open discussion on politics, religion and moral conversation. I really enjoyed this interview.
Lets be clear our government sucks, the only thing keeping them from being horrific is the Constitution and especially the Bill of Rights.
No. Freedom of speech is when people can come together to question government without the government attempting to use power to quiet those people. WTF?
What a nice person this Dennis Prager seems to be, nicely articulated points of view and relevant to this day

Good for you,glad to have come of darkness to the Light
I used to be independent, I didn't like politics and I still don't. There's corruption on both sides. I liked JFK & RFK (but apparently, both were morally corrupt). I loved Reagan but couldn't stand the Bush’s.
I didn't care for Trump but voted for him to cast my vote against Hillary, but now I love Trump. This administration has opened my eyes for the first time when they let their true colors be known. Thank God for DJT; I can't believe how he has hung in there after all he's been through. He's revealed things about this administration that have shocked us all.
Trump has done more for us than any President in my lifetime. O’Biden and this communist regime have committed treason over and over again. We have to stop this Tyranny, that the left has us put us under before it is too late. I just pray that America can hold up until 2025. Biden’s administration is the most corrupt evil regime in history. Stop Vanguard, State Street, Black Rock; Fink, Soros, Schwartz, Schwab, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Gates Pelosi, Obama, Clinton, Bush, Mayorkas, Garland, Wray, etc. from destroying our Constitution, and our Country.
May God bless Donald J.

Patrick, you should be commended for the guests you have on. Not many business-related content producers would welcome potential controversy - Prager, Alex Jones etc.
These are fair, balanced discussions where people can take away their own conclusions.

@@WifeOfTheBeast sick burn!
Prager has to live in his own little bubble to be such a corny douchebag. Does he realize he is such a living caricature that he is identical to the rich asshole in The Big Lebowski? He’s a walking comedy.
Fantastic discussion. Strong person yet no ego. Great questions, really good questions , sensible responses. Love these guys together.
Four years after this conversation. I was interested in Pat's observation of 'artsy' people being more emotional and liberal leaning. I would have classified myself this way, especially an art studio major. But after having kids, I was assulted with the harsh reality that the state wants to claim ownership over the next generation. This passion for protecting my family he as absolutely propelled me into the 'right' camp.
Everything I do is in the arts , but I've never leaned to the Left. And I have noticed that most of my artist friends are either strong Left or Strong Right, though far fewer on the Right. However there is something else I have observed about those that lean Left, because I've always wanted to understand what makes a person lean to 1 side or the other, which is what Pat was trying to get at in the video. But I think Patrick was unprepared to hear the answer, and Dennis knew better than to go there [ if he understands what it is].
There is a short-sightedness, and stubbornness, much like a child having a tantrum, where they insist, and want something all the more, as you try to explain why it's not a good idea. They become offended, and resort to accusing you of only wanting to deprive them of something, rather than trying to understand that it's in their best interest. Thus they equate disagreement with 'hate'. There's a refusal to consider any possibility that there's a good motive behind the disagreement. I doubt that anyone on youtube will ever really get into the bottom line differences, because it's too polarizing and hard to convince anyone on the Left of the basic psychological deception involved.
@@jameseverett9037 Using Prager's analogy...the left is the child that would eat the cheesecake, but have a tantrum if the wise dad (right) does not allow it. So blinded by their craving that there is no possible reasoning with them.
I've been watching Dennis for years...I just seen this .
Now I know why he is what he is.
Americans raise your children with this.
Thank you Mr. Prager
I'm only 3 minutes in, but I can feel this is going to be one of those epic life changing interviews.
When you hear the truth, it’s powerful.
This was a great discussion. They agreed on quite a bit but pat does an impeccable job of pushing who he interviews, not to insult or bully, but to test. I feel he wants to just get the best and the most certain responses out of people. Very important episode.
This guy is speaking more truth than I've ever seen in my entire life their life this a man I could get behind
I really genuinely thank God in my heart for Dennis Prager. He is a gift to Western civilization in our time. And I respect Bet-David for respectfully debating and arguing with him. That gives me hope that the wisdom of men like Prager will be passed on, even if the West doesn't survive.
Dennis Prager is the man for all seasons. Great intellectual with common sense, speaks with confidence of his beliefs. Thank you for this interview!🙂🇺🇸

Lol
Agree, he is sharp
Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing not to put one in a fruit salad.
Haha mmmmm tomato fruit salad
Tomato is a vegetable
@@husseinali-ei6ft @Christopher Freeze: An interesting example to choose. WHY? Because a tomato has a combination of aspects of both vegetables and fruits.
Also, who says tomato does not go together with fruits or which fruits.
Example: Avocado is a fruit, clearly. Tomato and avocado go together well. Would You put avocado together with peaches, nectarines, pears, apples citrus??
Which other fruits would You put together with tomato? Some would put pineapple together with tomato and some will not. Also some have differences in tastes and combinations.
Sincerely
Perhaps We can conjure and conceive of better examples to show knowledge compared with wisdom
Dennis used a different word that knowledge, but could include it, as the Patrick used "Smart", which is often similar to intelligent [actually a potential[, not of just knowledge rather of thinking abilities. There is more details to describe and define the differences Dennis is explaining. He knows also there are several types and aspects of thought and thought processes. He is attempting to simplify them into one as used; "Smart". Wisdom is one of the types of thoughts which also has aspects of combination of others and also coming from The Creator, specifically in certain ways and paths. Actually, all forms, types of thoughts, thinking, thinking processes come from the creator including the thoughts themselves. However, this is probably difficult for most to accept, just yet.
Sincerely
@@newtonfirefly3584 interesting pov but according to the supreme court of 1893 tomatoes were classified as vegetables and sold under that category because of its culinary applications but botanically yes it could be a fruit but it bears no applications nor coherence to any fruit combination

So true!
Dennis at home getting smoking a blunt.He the cool man..:-)
Patrick your interviews, videos and the way you conduct your self and ask questions is brilliant. I really enjoying watching you have conversations with people and having my mind changed or at the least questioning my own beliefs and opinions.
In my opinion, honoring your parents is not only being respectful to them, but bestowing honor upon them through your actions and interactions with people who are not your parents. It honors them by demonstrating that they gave you a proper upbringing.
So, the command holds two meanings.
its simple really treat your parents the way you want your kids to treat you....
Not a one size fits all rule. Everyone has a different situation.
@@megarancher91 the key is respect, regardless how your parent/s may or may not be, should not be a reason for degrading yourself by being disrespectful. A person of dignity can learn & mature to rise above hardships. This doesn’t mean to allow them to break boundaries & be abusive.
Problem is if they didn't give a proper upbringing? If you honor them in the religious sense then you risk them dragging you down with them.
@TheSpirit AndTheBride good to hear your life is improving and that is a better answer than what I got. Raised roman Catholic and when asking this question pretty much the answer was. "Well god is our father. So parents and adults should live just lives to honor God". I know well enough not to talk back but in my head I remembered all the people who did the exact opposite of what god wanted in the bible and thought " yeah, that does not seem to work out so well..."

Every interview is great by Valuetainment, but this one is exceptionally good and insightful.
I don't understand why people unlike this video it's an amazing conversation. Patrick does a good job pushing Dennis's beliefs. I wish we all did this around the country.
Watch and learn how it is done with finesse. We all need to enter into dialog with one another rather than incite riotous attitudes. The Bible states, "An answer when mild turns away wrath." Loads of insightful mind renewing wisdom in the pages of the Holy Bible.

I’m subscribed to Prager U. To be fair, the majority of my family are either centre left, or leftist. I’m the outlier because I’m a free thinker, and I questioned why things happen the way they do and found that I align way more with conservative values (and I’m Black). Unfortunately I cannot have discussions with them as it becomes too heated. Still this was a very interesting discussion!
It takes courage to be you.
Valuetainment I like to know all sides and have discussions to try to understand why people think the way they do. I just happen to be right-leaning. It just results in arguments and people walking away- it’s all love though :)
Deeniece Browne same. I just really don't subscribe to the parties full of men that feel they are the authority on a woman's body. His little comment about rape culture not being true rubbed me the wrong way. If we had actual logical women on the right who didn't go straight to condemnation I would support that. All parties have their issues I suppose. My family is Democrat, since we're Latino.
Dee A. I agree! All parties have their issues and blanket statements should not be made. I don’t agree with everything he says, just the majority of it :) I’ve had friends who unfortunately have been raped in the terms the dictionary would define it, however the definition has been expanded to mean things such as cat-calling to be taken as ‘sexual assault’ which I can’t agree with. It diminishes the true meaning of rape and skews stats. I think that’s what he means (but he put it a lot stronger).
@@VALUETAINMENT , NO. "Being you" is what we all ARE. Standing up for what is RIGHT, what is JUST - takes courage. Being "you" is just being.
I grew up as a left and now I'm a on the right. Dennis is 100% right and spot on e everything! Wish I could have heard of him in my early years.
"Brillant and almost no wisdom". Just about half of my professors at Baylor and the University of North Texas fit into this category. (more so at UNT)
Go Bears!!!
I love these "Christian" universities, well, formerly and only in name like TCU is now who are nothing more than idiot mills cranking out useless piles of human waste.
That's because most of them have never left school to do anything productive in their entire lives.
@@Hoggdoc1946 damn! right on the money!!
Indeed, because the definition of "wisdom" is subjective.
Dennis Prager has positively affected my world for my whole life. Like I started listening to him when I was 11 and about to be taken from my parents by the court.
Two main messages Dennis preached that hit home the most is:
-- 1. Debating people that he disagreed with, he would start with . . . I'm not interested in Changing you opinion but discuss civility where and why we agree and disagree for my listeners.
-- 2. His happiness hour on fridays are ABSOLUTELY life changing.
With that said, I feel you are the modern centrist version of Dennis Prager. I love you pushed my hero and both you and he walked off the interview with a higher regard in my view.
God bless you both!!
It's true that I saw a lot of democrats live a conservative lifestyle but advocating democratic ideas and values.
Their called bluedog dems and they are.ok for the most part
That’s called HYPOCRISY.😎
This is completely meaningless.
anybody for climate change must not ride aircraft with less than 100 people, save the planet!
@@sharkbait4616 "Anybody for climate change" lol
What is your first language, comrade?
What Prager said about one’s ego not being attached to one’s opinion is spot on. That’s a hallmark of an intelligent (or, perhaps better, “wise”) person. I see this error on social media all the time, where most people won’t admit to being wrong ever, regardless of the evidence.
Dennis is wisdom upon wisdom. I would love to sit down and have a 3 hour conversation with him about any and everything.
This has been one of the most mind opening source of wisdom I have ever watched.
This video should be shown in every school and given to every educator to share .
Thank you so much for sharing this with US .
I will share to all I meet .
This is how Congress should view and act on every issue .
As a POC who was raised in a very left leaning family. I was raised with very left leaning ideals, and believed them until my mid 20s. In my 20s I began to challenge my own ideals and investigated both sides of the debate. I intentionally looked for the best arguments from both sides on every topic and I weighed them against the results of the differences in those ideals.
At the end of the the day I became a very strong Constitutional Libertarian, who is very Conservative friendly. I also went from an atheist to a Christian.
I genuinely believe a person willing to look at the data and analyze it, look at the results of the differences in ideas, weigh which of the ideas are consistent with logic and reason.
If you do that it will lead you toward more conservative ideals.
The Bible makes sense; Christ is the way. We need to remove ourselves out of the way. Thank God for America & our Constitution.
@@1stockdale159 "Christ is the way. We need to remove ourselves out of the way." I'm not exactly sure, what you mean to say by this ?
@@carlosidelone8064 We’re raised with certain personal beliefs; and political, social, and religious customs. That can interfere.
We need to let go of our past, die completely out of this world, and sin.
Some people are raised that you have to wear a tie, and some believe that it is to wear a tie. Put these personal prejudices aside; pray and read the Bible, let it be your guide. We need to seek God first with all our hearts; He will show us the way. He’s the truth, the way, and the life.
May God bless all that seek Him, and do His will. Praise the Lord.
@@1stockdale159 Thank you for clarifying.
@@carlosidelone8064 You are welcome. May God bless you
I discovered Dennis on PragerU during the lockdowns of 2020, and he was very interesting and encouraging to me. God got me through those difficult times watching Dennis and his common sense views! ❤
Interestingly enough I encountered Dennis Prager on my first day at college. Probably saved my life. He has been and continues the most wise man in America, from my perspective.
What an excellent discussion. So glad to see Prager with you!
You do such amazing interviews. Being able to hang with some big name intellectually, knowing when to talk, and when to let the interviewee take over to speak.
This interview, even after several years, is still significant, influential, and concise. It would be great to see Mr. Prager on the PBD podcast again; that would be perfect. Greetings from Croatia.
I really enjoy how you insert photos and visuals into conversations. Its incredibly helpful for us visual learners.
I agree 100% with Dennis on women and men not being the same and sex is not the same for women as it is for men.
Dakota DellaFera what an original thought
Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.
And when that's respected it can really be beautiful.
@Alex M you clearly are not a nuanced thinker. You're part of the problem, nothing to add but you think trolling people to make yourself feel good is the same as making a moral point.
@AJ now go tell that to the academics teaching people there is no difference between fruit. The law makers that pass laws that penalize you for saying apples are not oranges.
Prager’s actual house. His dogs walking around and him smoking a cigar. This is an old school man; a dying breed.
Straw Hat Luffy He’s a relic from a vanished era.
His flatulent purebreds wafting in his very own flatulence and Cuban cigar smoke. A member of the good 'ol boy Jewish Old Guard indeed.
Straw Hat Luffy love Dennis🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻
deme9873 everything Dennis talks about is true.
C DUB you are an idiot from modern times.
what a great interview. Dennis is a messenger in the making, I see a great thinker and a very talented interviewer. God speed to both
I love how he admitted he has no proof of god. Then blasts people for not having evidence for ther belief or non believers. 0.07 % of violent criminals in federal prison are atheist. 99.3 % sure believers. I think Americans are safe living with atheist.
What a great interview ... Prager is so thoughtful and stands by his beliefs. Common sense is truth. People need to open their eyes.
Prager doesn't have a thought in his mind. Biased and lobbied and influenced by money.
He strawman argumentation to negatively spread misinformation.
He makes money off of propaganda. He is a conservative demagogue and has no values beyond making money for controversial points.
Ok mmmhmmm. Mmmmmk
Its like u read my mind lol
thedude2013 your oldie jam list is off the chart !
@@DGAirbrushing thnkz lol
Please get Thomas Sowell on next
YES
Everyone would like to get Sowell. He doesn’t do many interviews. I would agree that Sowell should be a prime target though. It’s too bad that Sowell and his work aren’t more accessible than they are.
Yesss
I love that man. I think he retired though. He only does interviews to "peddle" books and only with specific people.
Sowell has retired. He's about 85 now.
The guy is fucking serious man. My first words out of my mouth. Said with a respectful amazed tone of voice. What a great conversation. My brain and my mind were aligned, told me to stop what I was doing and pay attention to this thought provoking ,confirming conversation. Thanks guys.
You have very low aptitude
You sex fiend dog!
Only 15mins in, and this interviewer is asking amazing questions.
Dennis is correct in saying conservatives are the side of logic. He’s also right saying people can see that truth and change their political perspective. A lot of people become conservative as they gain life experience.
SusanBailey AmazingEstate I sure did
Conservatives have not conserved anything... Prayer in school....Women's lib....Gay marriage ....
As people get older and "wiser", they also end up in rocking chairs unable to face the realities imparted by the changing tides. In Dennis' case: he long ago found his niche as a cranky old bit of spinoff Rush Limbo flatulence and it's been his Cuban cigar and bulldog-supporting lifeblood and money-maker ever since.
This is absolutely true that's why Democrats want to lower the voting age to 16 only way they can get elected is through children and illegal immigrants that should tell you something
@@cidfacetious3722 Hello, Bro. I'm with you. I listen to that Joan of Arc-like Alex Jones also.
Dennis Prager is Awesome. Very Smart and fearless.
Prager is a very wise man and we definitely need more wisdom in this country.
I figured out a long time ago that it is wisdom that makes a person intelligent - not being a walking encyclopedia. Knowledge is important but it's how you learn from it and process the information. This is why a man with a very high I.Q. with no wisdom, is basically an idiot. I have a friend who can tell you all kinds of knowledgeable things but talk to him about politics and just simple commonsense answers and you'd think his I.Q. is that of a retard.
@Malic Bk those who fail deflect and point out system flaws instead of focusing on their flaws.
Love Mr. Prager!!! Wonderful human being with the values I share. God bless you, and yours!!!
Dennis Prager is a very Wise and intellectually intelligent man. One who is definitely fighting on the front lines of good vs evil. ..
I appreciate this man understanding the difference between a liberal and a leftist. I also appreciate that he acknowledged the lack of actual liberal representation when it comes to well known people having a voice on media. We are literally not represented. Instead we deal with leftists using the liberal umbrella and then I get to hear fox going off blaming liberals for everything.
This interview is from a few years ago and for many of us we saw the difference between liberals and leftists . most conservatives I know today are more liberal than those that claim to be liberal democrats today! They are leftist/progressives in reality!
Yes, Yes, Yes! I’ve argued this for years now! The democrat party is no longer a liberal party, at least not using the classic liberal definition. It is still remarkable to me but over the last 8-12 years I have found more in common, politically and culturally, with those running/following republicans than those running/following democrats. Which is completely unbelievable to me.
Strange none you wanna do anything about it
I was liberal until trump one, now I'm considered far right because I don't believe men can be women.
@@unbroken1010 What do you propose?
I love both of these guys! If you keep an open mind you can always learn new things.
Patrick conducts a good interview. Dennis Prager does not get pushed; his foundation is incredible.
Best interview ever!I've said for years our country has fallen away from the truth!The truth shall set you free !
Patrick wake up observe The WALK WAY MOVEMENT. People do change and grow up.
The Walkway Movement is where leftists get up on a walkway and throw milkshakes on Republicans.

Now everyone is wondering what the original comment was.
That is no big deal .. you can have a meaningful dicussion with pretty much everyone as long as you dont represent, for example a country like Iran that threatens to wipe your nation "off the map".

Two humans talking.
@@reprogrammingmind the purim story was focused in persia which is iran today. look up the book of esther in the old testament. the main place where jews were in that time was in iran. only since 1980 with the islamic revolution the jews had to flee.
Such a good interview. Appreciate both men tremendously
Thank you so much for this great interview. Four years later and it is still reaching people.
More people needed to see this. But after the horrible term with our current moron in charge will red pill a bunch of people.
I was raised by Democrats, and I agree with Dennis, being on the far right is common sense. It’s an IQ thing.
Is far right free market capitalism or WW2 German dictator?
@@franknuzzo2576 WW2 German Dictator was a Socialist haha... so..
Present Day example? Prime Minister JustinTrudeau. A bona fide Dictator, wearing a "Liberal" facade.
Might want to do some research... but again.. it IS an IQ thing so... ;)
@@20LookInside12 I know that. I’m richer and smarter than you.
Dennis is an American treasure, a true hero of mankind and a joy to have heard each day on the radio for so many years. I pray that everyone has a chance to listen to him and others through Prager U...Amen P.S. EVERYONE
What an excellent interview. This was so important and I'm sharing it with many
dennis, watching this video during house "lock down," i realized how eternally blessed i am, simply because i have listened to you since the very beginning of your career. yup, from sunday night kabc, all thru salem network. i've gained a life time of wisdom! ironically, i've spent many years in radio (dj, voice, production, etc.) and, on 2 occasions, have been called dennis prager, since i look a bit like you! what a world, eh?! thank you...
Dennis Prager is a leader, who stands firm on Wisdom and common sense
“I believe in the human ability to think rationally “ Dennis Prager .
These are words of wisdom we should all live by
racism is not rational. It is Ignorance at it's finest.
then why tf does it need his christian religion to do so ?
@Leon Harrison Facts
Too bad he doesn't. He is as dumb as a rock.
To do such a thing would be completely irrational.
Two guys I love and admire together. Awesome
I was always leaned towards the left until I hit a certain age and I realized that basic survival skills aren't based on emotions.
That’s interesting considering most conservative beliefs are based on emotions not facts lol
@@dudebob9779 What , its the exact opposite in my opinion but please explain.
Chase Wood For example, most conservatives believe it is not okay to burn the flag even though flag burning is protected under the constitution. They choose to get upset with this and argue with emotion. The same way that most conservatives will argue with emotion regarding NFL players kneeling during the national anthem
@@dudebob9779 that makes sense however, many conservatives will admit it's completely fine under the law, but it's the symbolism behind it, (for me I do not like the burning of the flag because my great grandfather died in war and our family was given the flag to honor him , while his war mates handed my grandmother the flag they played the national anthem to pay respects and honor his service to our Nation , thats why I see it as disrespectful)doing a controversial act and it being protected by the constitution doesn't mean you are protected by the backlash. It's completely fine under the constitution to say the N word or to burn the LGBT flag BUT no one is exempt from the backlash especially when people literally die for the flag(not like yk "they fought for the country so they fought for the flag" but many people have died while undergun fire and refused to drop or leave the flag). So that argument specifically is an emotional one for Patriots not specifically conservatives.
Chase Wood I see your point and I’m sorry about your grandfather. My father also fought in the Iraq war and suffers tremendously from it. An example I thought of conservatives using emotion is with the BLM protests. In my experience a lot of conservatives deny and form of systemic racism, which is backed by a tremendous amount of evidence, I see conservatives rant about BLM using emotional arguments to oppose BLM.
Dennis conquered the respect of the youth around the world. Thanks GOD for Dennis.
@John wayne How is a con man please explain.. fucken brainwashed lol. How is this a thing where you can just throw something and say without any argument to support it whatsoever...
@@Rc-a322 He lies to you and makes money out of it.
@Moe Snert I don't care if I convince you, it is up to you to investigate whether what you're being told is a lie or not
@Moe Snert Even if I did provide evidence, you're on a prager video so I doubt it'd sway you
@Moe Snert I don't even remember posting, I occasionally talk shit on Conservative channels when I'm drunk so it's probably from one of those times
