	Thank you.
	WHCU, 870 AM and 97.7 FM. Another SAGA group affiliate.
	Thank you, Ed Christian, the President and CEO, Chris and Joe.
	I look forward to meeting you.
	Got to get a speech at Cornell.
	Of course, it is possible that the Messianic Age will come before Cornell invites me.
	Nevertheless, that's good news for Jews and Christians.
	And I am honored in particular it was Rush Limbaugh's station.
	You folks in Ithaca might want to read my piece.
	The Wall Street Journal called me to be the one to write an op-ed piece upon Russia's death.
	You might find that column of interest.
	I'm going to read to you by friends an email from an idiot.
	That just came out.
	It really did.
	So I won't say his or her name.
	And as most idiots, they don't really put their name.
	I think you can make out at least the first initial in the email address.
	It's irrelevant.
	This is the email.
	It's literally one sentence.
	Are you not promoting cancel culture when you are calling for your followers to not drink Coca-Cola, not fly Delta, and not watch MLB? You are such a hypocrite, those two sentences.
	My first reaction was, why would this idiot have written to Franklin Roosevelt after the bombing of Pearl Harbor?
	You decry bombing and you are going to bomb the Japanese?
	You, hypocrite!
	Right?
	So let's see.
	They are allowed to initiate canceling, but we are not allowed to respond because that's hypocrisy.
	I get a lot of these letters.
	I've never met a clear-thinking leftist because they don't exist.
	The clear-thinking liberals can exist.
	The clear-thinking conservatives can exist.
	But the moment you are on the left, you have abandoned clarity of thought.
	So, when people attack and you respond in kind, you are a hypocrite.
	You are against invasions.
	And you're invading Germany?
	Hypocrite.
	That's like the attacks of the left on Israel, when Hamas sends bombs over all of Israel, and hopefully these rockets will crash and kill as many civilians as possible.
	So then Israel responds, and the left says, disproportionate response.
	Hypocrisy on the part of Israel for attacking Hamas.
	So the next time you are told, oh, look, you believe in the cancel culture, please remind them that you are responding in kind.
	Initiating something is not the same as responding to something.
	What should we do?
	Advocate that people drink Coca-Cola and fly Delta?
	So I have a moral question in this regard.
	Delta has hoarded itself out on this issue, which is unfortunate.
	I have always thought very well of Delta, and I still do, professionally.
	They run a good airline, but they are morally challenged in their leadership, who's a coward.
	It's purely cowardice in the face of the media.
	So I am speaking in Tampa, actually, next week.
	And St. Pete.
	And the only non-stop that exists between L.A. and Tampa is Delta.
	Obviously, I prefer to go non-stop.
	Or I can make one stop and go on United.
	So what do I do?
	It's an interesting dilemma.
	By the way, I am platinum medallion.
	Whatever, I checked when I was looking on the Delta site.
	Their alienating of people like me means nothing to them, and financially, they're right.
	If I never flew them again, it would make no dent in their profit.
	But if there are enough of me, they will feel it.
	Coca-Cola is much easier to avoid.
	There are so many other colas.
	We haven't heard, for example, from, let's see, Dr. What's his name?
	What's the doctor drink?
	Dr. Pepper has not spoken up.
	He's busy seeing patients.
	So you could understand that.
	Wasn't there a Dr. Pepper?
	How did I get that name?
	In any event, that's easier.
	People need to pay for their attacks on freedom in this country, and they're lying.
	It's the grandiosity of the lie about Georgia that is actually most disturbing, not their opinion.
	They're lying about it.
	Led by the New York Times and others.
	So I thought I would respond to this dummy.
	Yep.
	If you respond to those who cancel by canceling them, you're a hypocrite.
	What should I do?
	Turn the other cheek?
	Was this a literalist of the New Testament writing me?
	I doubt it.
	I doubt it.
	It was a person of the left.
	I want to thank every leftist who writes me.
	You have no idea how valuable your emails are.
	I'm not being sarcastic in the least.
	That is one of the many ways I know what the unclear think.
	My column today is about mask wearing.
	I have scientist after scientist that I quote, including the New England Journal of Medicine, until recently the most prestigious medical journal in the United States, but it has gone woke as the left destroys the sciences.
	It begins to destroy the sciences.
	And I quote an article.
	Ah, there's another lefty who wrote me when I quoted that.
	Oh, you phony.
	You liar.
	You didn't tell everybody that the scientist who wrote the column about the worthlessness of masks immediately appended later that, oh, they weren't saying that people shouldn't wear them or whatever.
	Yes, because the woke mob got them.
	Scientists shouldn't say science.
	They should say what the left wants them to say.
	But they didn't retract a word that they said in the article.
	I should read that to you.
	I think that people would actually find it most illuminating.
	Oh, before I do, on my way to the article, have you seen the latest?
	So there's been a, what do you call it, a Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue for I don't know how many years.
	30 years?
	Whatever.
	Featuring beautiful women in bikinis, basically.
	And it was the most popular issue of Sports Illustrated.
	Is that not a shock?
	You would think that the golf issue would be the big issue.
	Anyway, so they have now opened it up, because Sports Illustrated is also...
	Dominated by people who listen to the left because it's protection payment.
	To do what the left wants is protection payment like mafia payments.
	They won't attack you if you pay them in ideological currency.
	So they've had, I think they had a transgender model and they've had heavyset women plus size modeling.
	And the latest, this came up in my news feed, and the latest is that they will have a man, and I will tell you about that man in a moment, moment and then read to you from the New England Journal of Medicine.
	Trending now on America First with Sebastian Borka.
	I had a kind of epiphany today.
	Maybe I'm a big softy deep down.
	If you believe that, I got a bridge to sell you.
	But sometimes, especially, let me get personal.
	Not when I get attacked, but even then, when it's really vituperative, when it's really despicable.
	I have a certain feeling.
	But when they attack my family, and when they've attacked my children, there's usually a point in the year where I just find myself asking a certain question, a very human question.
	Why do they do that?
	Why would you do that to a fellow human being?
	And it puzzles me because I could never do that.
	I can be harsh.
	I can be very robust in what I say.
	Some would say aggressive.
	But it's not because I detest and wish to destroy human beings.
	I'm a rational human and I can separate the person From the ideology.
	The sin from the sinner.
	I don't wish to destroy my fellow man.
	If you threaten my family, I will kill you.
	That is what every father and husband should be prepared to do.
	You try to use lethal force against somebody I love, and I will die to save them.

	music Did you move to LA from New York?
	I moved very shortly thereafter because while I couldn't write for Letterman, I was perfect for Johnny Carson.
	And so I asked my now friend, David Letterman, would he please send a package out to his connections?
	He's already been guest hosting that show for years and whatnot.
	So what happened?
	The Tonight Show said, nah, we're not interested.
	Yeah, Johnny was going through a miserable divorce.
	And by the way, I remember the very first joke because he did use some of the material I sent out.
	The very first joke.
	Now, you wouldn't be able to do this joke today because it's body shaming.
	And you have to remember the references.
	I guess now 35, maybe even gosh.
	Is this a Toady Fields joke or a Mama Cass Elliot joke?
	Sort of, sort of.
	All right.
	Remember Karnak the Magnificent?
	The answer is, the answer is hip hip hooray.
	The question, describe Liz Taylor putting on her jeans.
	That is a great joke.
	What do you mean you can't do a joke like that today?
	That is a great joke.
	You just did it on this program.
	I love it.
	Hip hip.
	So has that ever appeared anywhere?
	Yes, every time I'm on the air.
	Every time you're on the air.
	Hip hip hooray.
	Well, when you write a joke like that, that's like a...
	I think Dick Cavett's first major joke was...
	There's a new restaurant, and it's Chinese-German.
	The only problem is, an hour after you eat there, you're hungry for power.
	That's a stupid joke.
	That's a stupid joke.
	Anyway, okay, so hip-hip-hooray.
	Can I tell a slightly off-color joke?
	If you don't, we'll be offended.

	Hey, I do want to remind you about BJU Press. I do want to remind you about BJU Press.
	BJU Press.
	For almost 50 years, has been producing academically solid textbooks and video lessons that enable students to form a perspective on life rooted in Christian values.
	In their history materials, they show God's hand, or hand as it's written, on man's affairs throughout the ages.
	In literature, they explore the moral absolutes that God has put into our world.
	In math, they demonstrate how God loves order, and in science, there isn't a page that does not demonstrate the omniscient, omnipotence, and omnipresence of the Creator.
	To learn more about BJU Press' biblically-based K-3 through grade 12 materials, visit BJUPressHomeschool.com.
	That's BJUPressHomeschool.com.
	Internet feed.
	I think it's MSN. I don't know.
	I'm not sure what it is.
	I think it's from Microsoft.
	Anyway, come out from People Magazine.
	Meet model Louis Freeze, the first male finalist in Sports Illustrated.
	Shouldn't it be Sports Illustrated?
	Are there editors any longer in newspapers or magazines?
	Anyway.
	The first male finalist in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Swim Search History.
	Wow.
	The Minnesota native and full-time student just became the first male finalist in the history of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit's annual Swim Search, an open casting call that gives fresh faces and established models alike.
	The opportunity to prove why they would be a great addition to the franchise's iconic swimsuit issue.
	Free says he's happy to be part of a larger conversation about inclusivity.
	Very nice.
	I have nothing against the man.
	Why any male, heterosexual male, would buy the swimsuit issue with males?
	Modeling swimsuits in it is a question to me who is pretty aware of male sexuality.
	For those of you who didn't go to college, this will be boring.
	For those of you who went to graduate school, this will be offensive.
	Men like to look at attractive women.
	That is the reason the swimsuit issue was the most popular Sports Illustrated issue since it came out.
	However, inclusivity is not exactly what the male libido is interested in.
	Is that fair to say?
	Men do not fantasize inclusivity, unless you include another woman.
	That's the only inclusivity the male libido fantasizes.
	Now, you know what is amazing?
	You can't say what I just said on almost any college campus.
	Is alien.
	People, the left teaches young people to believe what brings them comfort.
	Human nature does not bring them comfort.
	And there's a picture of the man, and if I showed you the picture and said it has his bare stomach.
	And his arms raised, right?
	Is that right?
	Let me see here, yes.
	And there isn't a hair on his stomach.
	If I showed you this stomach alone, you would say it belonged to a woman.
	Gays, on the other hand, now may be attracted for the first time to the SI swimsuit issue.
	But generally speaking, in the fantasy world, you either have gays or straights.
	Looking at what you produce.
	But, that's it.
	Nothing against the guy, but it's hard for me to imagine that inclusivity in the way S.I. means it and the left means it will attract people to buy the swimsuit edition.
	When you turn the page, you find a guy almost undressed.
	Wow!
	That's exciting!
	Okay!
	As we return to Earth here, I said to you that I would read to you.
	It's in my column today.
	You can get it at town only.
	Get it at DennisPrager.com.
	Over the course of the We Get It Daily Wire, American Greatness, Jewish World Review, and many other places that take my column.
	Thank God, because...
	Because I have a lot to say.
	New England Journal of Medicine, May 21, 2020. Again, Nejim, the most New England Journal of Medicine, the most prestigious medical journal in America.
	We know that wearing a mask outside healthcare facilities offers little, if any, protection from infection.
	Public health authorities define a significant exposure to COVID-19 as face-to-face contact within six feet with a patient with symptomatic COVID-19 that is sustained for at least a few minutes, and some say more than 10 minutes or even 30 minutes.
	The chance of catching COVID-19 from a passing interaction in a public space is therefore minimal.
	In many cases, the desire for widespread masking is a reflexive reaction to anxiety over the pandemic.
	Question.
	Did the New York Times report this?
	Did the Washington Post report this?
	Did CNN report this?
	Now, if they did, I... Profusely apologize.
	But if they didn't, they should profusely apologize.
	So here's the story, my friends.
	People do not, quote, follow the science.
	They follow the scientists the left tells them to follow.
	Thousands of scientists signed the Great Barrington, remember that?
	The Great Barrington Declaration?
	Against lockdowns?
	Thousands.
	I wonder if that was reported on the lying networks and media.
	Remember, lying by omission is as destructive as lying by commission.
	They couldn't have been stronger in the New England Journal of Medicine.
	So please, folks.
	You wear a mask outdoors?
	All I want you to do is admit it's a way of placating your anxiety and has nothing to do with science.
	I respect that.
	Turning now to the Charlie Kirk Show.
	This is a teacher-student dialogue of a Zoom class. in Virginia.
	Listen carefully.
	play team.
	I mean, what this seems to be a picture of.
	It's just two people chilling.
	Right, just two people.
	There's nothing more to that picture?
	No, not really.
	Just two people chilling.
	I don't believe that you believe that.
	I don't believe that you look at this as just two people.
	It truly is just two people, though, is it not?
	Yeah, but I think you're being intentionally coy about what this is a picture of.
	What are you being coy about?
	It's two people standing back to back in a picture.
	Yeah, and that's all you see is two people.
	I'm confused on what you would like me to speak on.
	I don't think you are.
	Well, I'm confused.
	Are you trying to...
	Do you want me to say that there are two different races in this picture?
	Is that what you wanted to say?
	Well, at the end of the day, wouldn't that just be feeding into the problem of looking at race instead of just acknowledging them as two normal people?
	No, it's not.
	Because you can't look at people and not acknowledge that there are racial differences, right?
	But if we're going for, let's say if we're looking for equality within all this, then why would we need to point out things such as that?
	Those differences are real things.
	Those differences are real things, says the eugenicist teaching your children.
	Margaret Sanger trained this public school teacher, this white school teacher, very well.

	A few weeks ago, we had on the man who's going to be the next mayor of New York, Curtis Sliwa.
	Well, I thought, you know what?
	We've got some friends across the pond.
	Why don't we see if we can find out who's going to be the next mayor of London?
	We figured out who it is.
	I'm not kidding.
	His name is Lawrence Fox.
	Lawrence, welcome to the program.
	Hi, Eric.
	How are you doing?
	I'm good.
	You're hoarse from your first stump speech, aren't you?
	I am a bit.
	I was quite nervous doing my first stump speech, I have to say.
	People don't know this.
	Listen, I have to frame this, and you can feel free to interrupt me.
	And I'm not kidding.
	But I want people to understand that you're initially in your life, you're an actor.
	You're principally known as an actor.
	So people want to know, why did Lawrence Fox, the actor from the acting family, suddenly decide to go into politics and to say, yes, I would like to run to be the mayor?
	Of London.
	I mean, again, remember that most of the audience is American.
	They cannot fathom what's going on in London.
	So give us an idea for those of us who are not following the horrors of what your current mayor is doing.
	Yeah, we'll get on to my current mayor.
	He's dreadful.
	I think the reason why I'm not acting now is because about a year and a...
	A year and a couple of months ago, I went on a TV show in England called Question Time.
	I went on that show and I got into an argument with someone who said that I wasn't allowed a view because of my white privilege.
	And I said, let's not be racist to each other.
	That went down pretty badly.
	So my show business career ended pretty quickly after that with the actors union in the UK calling for me to be denounced.
	because I berated a woman of color.

	A couple of years ago, I wrote a column on the father of my two step-sons who shot himself to death because he was in such horrible pain.
	The result of a terrible accident of falling off his ladder.
	Onto the ladder.
	And so the steps of the ladder crushed his abdomen.
	And he had horrible adhesions.
	It could have been controlled with painkiller drugs.
	But our society has decided that people in pain should stay in pain.
	One of the many cruelties in our medical establishment.
	Joins the cruelty of you can't visit your dying mother or father even if you wear a mask.
	One of the despicable aspects of the last year.
	Let me just add on a personal note, I would have smashed the door of the hospital to see my relative or friend if they were in such a condition and totally have been open to being arrested.
	At least my relative would know I didn't obey the authorities and let them die alone.
	The cruelties of our CDC and other institutions are remarkable.
	Let it never be said that becoming an MD increases your compassion.
	On this subject, I brought to your attention a powerful New York Daily News article, A Painful Struggle.
	Opioids can be dangerous, but restrictions or a ban are worse.
	And I have the author of this very important moral piece.
	He's an independent journalist covering health and disability, host of the Happy Warrior broadcast.
	And he is Peter Pischke.
	And you tell me, Peter, please, did I pronounce your last name correctly?
	You did, Prager.
	That was pretty good.
	Not a lot of people get that one on their first try.
	Well...
	It's an honor to be on your show.
	Thank you for inviting me.
	I've listened to your radio off and on, but I love your books, The Rational Bible.
	I read the first two.
	I need to get back to the rest of them.
	And, of course, PragerU.
	I'm very touched.
	I had no idea, obviously, but I want to salute you for your piece.
	Before we get into it, I want you to know I was surprised that the New York Daily News published it.
	Were you surprised?
	In some ways, in the sense that the appetite for this story in mainstream news especially, Pretty much news in general is pretty low.
	But, you know, when working on this piece, a whole bunch of windows and doors opened on the issue, and it came together.
	And the people, my partners at the New York Daily News, my editor, were just awesome.
	And we fact-checked this article ten ways this Sunday.
	So it was a lot of work, but we're, I don't know if proud is the right word, but we're pretty proud with the work and what we've come out and we stand by it.
	Let me just tell my listeners that your piece is up at DennisPrager.com.
	Is that confirmed, Mr. Producer?
	Yes.
	Okay, excellent, because people should see it.
	What drives the meanness of the deprivation of people in horrible pain of drugs that can help them?
	What drives that?
	That is a hard question to answer.
	Part of it is, I mean, yeah, we can start it.
	Part of it is that the incentives currently in healthcare and public health, and you can see it in a whole bunch of our elite institutions, are not there for admitting when things have gone wrong.
	So as we can see with COVID, I mean, I'm not making a comment there, but you can see how difficult it is for us to distangle ourselves from older policies, even policies we...
	At this point, no, aren't very good ideas because there's no benefit for, say, the CDC or Dr. Fauci to admit that they were wrong.
	I mean, they'll get criticism from the press.
	They'll have people, you know, up and down on them.
	Maybe there'll be a book written about how terrible they are.
	And so there is no reason for someone in a position like that to do the right thing and say, hey, you know what?
	We were wrong.
	We misunderstood the science.
	We screwed up and we're sorry.
	There are some people that are willing to do it, and they're brave and good people, but they're few and far in between.
	So for at least the CDC, it is more often than not the apathy that we're seeing all over the place.
	And then I think a lot of it is because people in their own lives, especially doctors, are so afraid of losing their license.
	Good, good.
	Stay with that.
	That's key.
	Peter Pischke, PIS. C-H-K-E. His piece in the Daily News is up at DennisPrager.com.
	On to, how ironic, I want to bring to your attention a non-opioid answer to much muscle and joint pain, and that is relief factor.
	I want people out of gratuitous pain.
	This is a remarkable product.
	It is certainly not there for nerve pain, but if you have joint and muscle pain, back, shoulder, etc., knee, give it a three-week try for just $19.95 because they say you'll know in three weeks if it works.

	I Speaking to a man who is doing this country a service, Peter Pischke, P-I-S-C-H-K-E. He has a podcast, The Happy Warrior.
	He's written this very important piece for the New York Daily News.
	The number of people dying from getting street drugs because they can't get them legally.
	For the horrible pain they're in.
	It hit my family directly.
	You can again read my piece.
	The father of my stepsons.
	A man who loved life.
	Had a terrible accident.
	Was in horrific pain.
	Could not find a doctor to prescribe a painkiller.
	And then finally killed himself.
	At his memorial I spoke.
	And I said.
	Because people are very ambivalent about suicides.
	And I said to all those present, I would have done the same thing if that were my circumstance.
	And I was later told by his immediate relatives how much that meant to them.
	So you were saying, Peter, that one of the reasons that people cannot Good, decent people could not get these drugs is doctors are afraid of losing their license.
	Yes, very much so.
	Yeah, no, there's very much a formal pressure on physicians and those who can prescribe and pharmacists, and there's also a very informal pressure that's almost...
	Even worse.
	So, formally, you have law enforcement, particularly agencies like the DEA took what the CC put on 2016 as a justification to try to, as the old saying goes, arrest their way out of the crisis.
	At the same time, doctors have to be worried about the state legislatures and what laws they've made, limiting prescriptions, and their state medical boards, which have huge pressure on them.
	To come down hard on doctors and to get this and whack it.
	And to top it off, you have your health system.
	So the hospital or the clinic you work in, there's a huge incentive for the CEO to have good numbers showing we're reducing our opioid prescriptions by this much every month.
	Look how great we're doing.
	And it's a ton of pressure on doctors.
	And in your doctors, I have a family member that right now is going through.
	Medical school and the sacrifice to go through that process.
	I mean, it's a gigantic amount of hazing for years.
	So they are deadly scared, even to the point of abandoning patients, which, by the way, I'm not saying is morally justified at the least, but it is understandable why they do it.
	Okay, so let's keep going up the ladder.
	So the doctor is afraid of losing his license.
	He knows the patient is in horrible pain.
	And needs opioids.
	But he won't prescribe it because he fears losing his license.
	Now, who takes away the license?
	The medical board of that state?
	Yeah.
	Actually, the number of doctors that have lost their license that we know on record is relatively few, especially if you take out, like, the ones that are pill mills in Ohio and Appalachia.
	But the fear is there, and many doctors are under the impression that the 2016 CC guidelines was law, because that seems to be what everyone is telling them.
	And at the same time, you know, there are, of course, true believers.
	There are people who are very suspect of traditional pain medication in general, and so there aren't a lot of people who advocate.
	For traditional pain care.
	And the idea that we're going to try to meet the person's pain, even if it requires opioids, there are fewer and fewer of those guys around each day.
	Famously, Reason covered this.
	There was Dr. Forrest Tennant, who I have interviewed, and he would have patients coming from all over the country.
	They would travel thousands of miles by plane to go to his clinic because they could not find a specialist in their area to take them.
	And look, when people are...
	They're told by their primary and they're saying, I can't do it anymore.
	Often they blame them.
	They're saying, you have an addiction problem.
	You have to go to a pain specialist.
	They go to the pain specialist and they have to get in line and wait two years or more, or the pain specialist will just tell them point blank, sorry, I know you're in pain.
	I know this is really real.
	My own doctor told me this, but I just can't do it.
	I just cannot do it.
	If I do that, then not only are you going to be without somebody to give you some care, All of the rest of my patients are.
	It's just an impossible standard that we're trying to ask the specialists to live by, and the generals, they just don't want to have any partners.
	Did the doctor you mentioned whom people travel to thousands of miles lose his license?
	Yeah, I believe he still hasn't licensed, but they forced him to close.
	So he no longer practices medicine, but he does run An advocacy organization.
	It's been a while since I looked at it.
	So ultimately, I'm trying to understand, unless we've entered the world of ether, which we may have, the real threat to the doctor comes from medical boards.
	State medical boards.
	The medical boards, you said, are under pressure from the politicians.
	Is that correct?
	That is correct.
	And the politicians?
	And the media and big litigation.
	There are plenty of lawyers that put this pressure on because there are big litigation for the last four years or so has been trying really hard to turn the opioid crisis into their new big tobacco.
	Who was trying to do that?
	Big litigation.
	So the lawyers that went after asbestos Are now going after opioid doctors?
	Yes.
	They met together and they believe that their best target was...
	Unfortunately, you're just feeding my conviction that no group has done more harm to this country than the legal profession in my lifetime, and there are many wonderful lawyers, but it's irrelevant to my point.
	The fear of litigation has created a great deal of evil in the United States of America.
	Please read his piece up at the New York Daily News.
	The compassion crowd has no compassion for people in horrific pain.

	Biden makes these assertions about this Georgia law.
	He says you can't give people water.
	He says it shrinks voting hours, both of which are lies.
	Now, as you know, a man who now lives in Florida was dog for four years.
	With a running tab by one of the major newspapers about all the lies he tells.
	Biden tells us big, massive lies, does them quietly, doesn't scream or yell.
	Media doesn't say a damn thing.
	Now, is that because the media doesn't know he's lying?
	Or doesn't care?
	Biden said, and Nancy Pelosi just reiterated it yesterday, that 83%, notice it's never 82, never 84, it's always 83, 83% of the Trump tax cut.

	One of the evils of our society is the deprivation of people in horrible pain, of pills that can help their pain.
	It is an astonishing, astonishing act of cruelty on the part of the medical profession.
	Peter Pischke is all over the internet.
	The Postmillennial, the Happier Warrior podcast, New York Daily News.
	He's conquering the world.
	So, I want to understand, what is it that the lawyers could sue?
	So, Jacob Solomit Reason, he's broken down this thing almost better than anyone.
	If you look at the actual cases we've seen, particularly against Johnson& Johnson, or you look at Purdue, the legal strategy they go through is not signing any specific actual law or statute.
	That these companies, the pharma companies, have broken.
	What they've gone for is what they did with Big Tobacco and is general nuisance law.
	And in that, you know, the basic theory is you get enough pressure going on with the media.
	You get enough people really upset.
	You can skirt some of these issues of having to have an actual statute to point to that got broken, and you can get things...
	To go your way, which we've seen.
	I mean, and this isn't to say that Purdue or Johnson or any of these companies didn't do anything unethical, but their practices weren't radically different than what every other American pharmaceutical company was doing in the United States with every other pharmaceutical.
	So it's kind of crazy, but even in the media, it has been alleged, I don't want to put out untrue, it has been alleged that there are CERN outlets that have covered this story in such a way to...
	So let me forgive me, because of the time factor, I just got to ask you, do you have allies mostly on the right or mostly on the left?
	I would say it's a fair mixture.
	I think libertarians were the first one to, you know, because they always like choosing controversial stuff, were the first one on it.
	And it did take a while for people...
	On the right, there were some people that were on it right away.
	Dr. Wesley J. Smith of National Review and First Things has been on this since the very beginning.
	There are some people on the left, people who are very interested in human rights.
	There are some people who are serious scientists that believe their job is to go with best evidence and not whatever their bosses are.
	Okay, well, count me as one of your troops.
	Just so you'll know.
	I mean, the idea that we deprive people in horrible pain of drugs that can help them strikes me as cruel.
	You're doing wonderful work.

	A few weeks ago, we had on the man who's going to be the next mayor of New York, Curtis Sliwa.
	Well, I thought, you know what?
	We've got some friends across the pond.
	Why don't we see if we can find out who's going to be the next mayor of London?
	We figured out who it is.
	I'm not kidding.
	His name is Lawrence Fox.
	Lawrence, welcome to the program.
	Hi, Eric.
	How are you doing?
	I'm good.
	You're hoarse from your first stump speech, aren't you?
	I am a bit.
	I was quite nervous doing my first stump speech, I have to say.
	People don't know this.
	Listen, I have to frame this, and you can feel free to interrupt me.
	And I'm not kidding.
	But I want people to understand that you're initially in your life, you're an actor.
	You're principally known as an actor.
	So people want to know, why did Lawrence Fox, the actor from the acting family, suddenly decide to go into politics and to say, yes, I would like to run to be the mayor?
	Of London.
	I mean, again, remember that most of the audience is American.
	They cannot fathom what's going on in London.
	So give us an idea for those of us who are not following the horrors of what your current mayor is doing.
	Yeah, we'll get on to my current mayor.
	He's dreadful.
	I think the reason why I'm not acting now is because about a year and a...
	A year and a couple of months ago, I went on a TV show in England called Question Time.
	I went on that show and I got into an argument with someone who said that I wasn't allowed a view because of my white privilege.
	And I said, let's not be racist to each other.
	That went down pretty badly.
	So my show business career ended pretty quickly after that with the Actors Union in the UK calling for me to be denounced.

	Because now you're invading.
	So we are to do nothing against those who cancel us.
	Like Major League Baseball.
	Yes.
	Then I talked about something that bothers me, because I... Try to live by my favorite verse in the Bible.
	Not well known to most people in the Psalms, those who love God must hate evil.
	It's a command.
	Hebrew has a command form.
	English does not.
	Hate evil, you know, is a command if you add the word must, or should, or need to.
	But in Hebrew there is, in fact, a command form in the verb.
	Every verb has one.
	You're commanded to hate evil, and I have tried to live by that.
	It is evil to deprive people in horrible pain of pain-killing medicines.
	Our society has opted in that way for cruelty, just as it did.
	In depriving people the right to visit their parent who is dying, or God forbid, their child, in a hospital, even wearing a mask, which proves to you the uselessness of masks.
	My column this week, Town Hall, DennisPrager.com, is on mask wearing.
	Another sign of the irrational.
	Taking hold among the well-educated.
	There's no doubt in my mind, I've believed this for all of my life, the well-educated are much less rational than the less well-educated.
	The more time you spend at university, the stupider you become in most cases.
	I swear before the Lord I believe that.
	I may be wrong, but you should know that I believe it.
	I would go so far as to say I know it, but I will tell you that I do believe that.
	The chances of you becoming a moral idiot by going to college are very high.
	And I went to college and graduate school.
	So why aren't I a moral idiot?
	Because I had moral moorings when I went in.
	Called Judeo-Christian...
	And American constitutional principles.
	Pretty strong stuff.
	I actually believed what the Declaration of Independence said, that we are endowed by our Creator with inalienable rights, or unalienable rights, I believe, is the way they put it.
	Because if the Creator does not endow us with unalienable rights, there's no such thing as inalienable rights.

	All right.
	We'll continue here and...
	Tom in Lakeville, Minnesota.
	Hello, Tom.
	Hey, Dennis.
	Good afternoon.
	Hi.
	I was just calling about your last guest.
	My brother was a doctor in a major hospital close to Green Bay, Wisconsin.
	He was an anesthesiologist for the hospital, and he also ran a pain clinic.
	And what happened after a while, the EEA put in, I don't know what you'd call them, People would go in and think they had the illness to get the prescriptions.
	It was very few and far between, but they brought a case up against my brother, and it literally lasted for two to three years.
	Wait, excuse me.
	The case was what?
	That he prescribed too many opioids?
	Correct.
	For one individual or in general?
	No, probably a handful, a little bit more.
	Okay, go on.
	But not like the mills you see down in, you know, where there's hundreds of people sitting outside.
	So anyhow, so they took it to court, the DEA and all of their narcs or informants, and it went on forever.
	And he ended up losing everything he earned over 30 years, from his house to his wife to everything.
	I mean, he was down to...
	Like $17,000.
	The case finally went to court in Green Bay.
	He won the case.
	The judge said it was the worst case he had ever seen in his life and didn't know why it even got that far.
	And to top it off, he ended up coming and living with me because he just was both no home or nothing.
	And I had left one day to go do something, came back, and he had taken his life.
	And this guy was so dedicated to medicine and helping his patients.
	It's a terrible story.
	It really is.
	Yeah, I don't blame you for crying.
	I could cry too.
	My personal...
	The way of dealing with these things is to fight rather than cry.
	but crying is called for.
	There's something so corrupt, morally corrupt in the medical system in this country that I'm not quite sure where it emanates from.
	And of course, not just the medical one.
	I mean, there's just every elite institution virtually is corrupt, morally corrupt.
	I don't even mean financially corrupt.
	Many of them are, but it's morally corrupt.
	So let me see.
	They're afraid.
	Let's get this clear.
	So it's all based on something bad might happen.
	We'll allow massive amount of bad to take place because something bad might happen.
	Nobody can visit a relative or friend in a hospital who's dying, even with a mask on, because you might afflict others with COVID, even with your mask.
	So we will let hundreds of thousands of Americans die alone, rather than risk one person or ten people.
	Coming into the hospital.
	Wearing a mask.
	And spreading the disease.
	Yeah, that's the way it is.
	We will ruin the lives of millions of American children who will not be able to reconstitute their year of lost education.
	Because there might be a kid who transmits...
	COVID to a teacher.
	And the teacher will then die.
	You know how many teachers have died from kids wherever that's been allowed?
	Zero!
	This is the thinking of the well-educated.
	Yeah, here's a great man.
	People thought he was great.
	Yeah, it's exactly right.
	The man who killed God knows how many people in nursing homes.
	We'll be back.

	I think she's very resourceful.
	Like, she burns facts.
	And then she uses that ash to create a perfect smokey eye.
	Like, maybe she's born with it.
	Maybe it's lies.
	It's probably lies.
	And I'm never really sure what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
	You know?
	Is it Sarah Sanders?
	Is it Sarah Huckabee Sanders?
	Is it Cousin Huckabee?

	You see, what we make fun of Joe Biden for is actually a winning quality to most voters.
	The fact that Joe Biden is kind of sleepy and slow, the fact that Joe Biden falls upstairs, which is a rather remarkable thing.

	Hi, everybody. everybody.
	I want to tell you about a movie at SalemNow.com.
	It's called Church People.
	Executive producer is the MyPillow founder, Mike Lindell.
	Believe it or not, it's a hilarious faith-based comedy.
	How many of those have been made?
	Not exactly your typical movie, so it's really worth seeing.
	And it's got a great cast.
	It starts when, quote, America's youth pastor, Guy Sides, realizes he's stuck in the megachurch marketing machine, wants to find his passion again.
	But when he attempts to get back to the heart of the ministry, he is thrust into the throes of dissuading his misguided church leadership from performing a strange and potentially blasphemous stunt.
	For the upcoming Easter service.
	Anyway, it's very funny.
	Church people, it's affirming of the gospel.
	And you can stream church people at SalemNow.com.

	I am Dennis Prager.
	And let me continue with a few calls.
	There are a lot of important subjects that are being raised, so I'm taking calls.
	Jeff, Harvard, Illinois.
	Hello, Jeff.
	Hey, Dennis.
	Thanks for taking my call.
	You're one of my favorite people.
	Thank you.
	The reason I'm calling is several times I've heard you mention that we should hate evil, but isn't hate in itself a form of evil?
	Tell me where you picked that up.
	Where do I pick what up?
	That notion that hate is evil.
	It just seems to be instinctive.
	Okay, that's fair.
	Are you personally religious?
	I don't care whether you are or not.
	Go on.
	Mostly.
	I don't attend church, but I consider myself to be a Christian.
	Right.
	Okay, so you should know that...
	Hate is not proscribed, meaning the opposite of prescribed.
	It's not forbidden anywhere in the Old or New Testament.
	Hating your neighbor is forbidden, but hating evil is commanded.
	What do you think your sentiment toward evil should be, if not hatred?
	Well, I think you should be disgusted by it.
	So disgusted is okay, but hating is not?
	Well, I mean, for lack of a better word, it's just that, you know, I was taught since a young age I was raised by my mother, and she told me not to have any hate in my heart.
	Okay, so I would ask your mother the question, what sentiment do you think God wants you to have, or do you want people to have toward evil?
	Remember, it doesn't even say hate evil people.
	It says hate evil.
	If you don't hate evil, I don't think you'll fight it as much as if you do.
	And I don't know how hating evil is not the flip side of loving good.
	So anyway, listen, think about that.
	The issue of hating evil has preoccupied much of my life. .
	It's what alienated me from the left at a very young age because they didn't hate communism.
	That told me all I needed to know about the left.
	That it is founded on moral idiocy.
	And I have seen that my whole life.
	That's what did it.

	Conservatives hated communism.

	And I don't quite get the distinction between disgusted by and hate.
	Okay.
	Anyway, it's a very important thing.
	That's why I took it.
	Largo, Florida and Mike.
	Hello.
	Yes.
	Thank you very much for taking my call.
	I appreciate it.
	You're welcome.
	Thank you for calling.
	The caller you had on earlier, as a matter of fact, a couple of callers that were talking about the prescription opiates with the problem and the doctors not being able to prescribe and, you know, the feeling that people are suffering because of it.
	Right.
	I feel there's a whole other side to that to look at.
	And that's why I was very anxious about it.
	Go ahead.
	I have two boys that have a drug addiction, and they've had for many, many years.
	And I fervently believe that it was due to the over willingness to give way more opioids than they needed.
	Why did they need it to begin with?
	Well, one of them had a boat trailer dropped on his foot and he ended up in the hospital.
	I don't blame that on his addiction.
	I think that triggered something inside of him, but that's not wholly the problem.
	The problem was just compounded.
	When he went to the doctor for his prescriptions, you know, I've heard that in the state of Florida, the 50 top doctors in the United States that are prescribing opiates are in Florida.
	The top 50. Maybe that's a credit to Florida.
	Well, you may look at it that way.
	Right, I don't...
	Wait, wait.
	So, one of your sons...
	Had a terrible accident causing terrible pain in his foot.
	Do we agree on that?
	Yes, we do.
	Do we agree that at that point it was legitimate to prescribe an opioid to kill the pain?
	Yes.
	So the problem arose when?
	When your son became addicted at that point and the doctor continued to prescribe opioids?
	Not just continued.
	But continued to prescribe in a quantity that was very excessive.
	Right.
	And why do you think he did it?
	Why do I think the doctor prescribed that much?
	Why do you think he overprescribed?
	What motivated him to overprescribe?
	I don't know.
	Other than I feel that I know that they get money back from the pharmaceuticals.
	Is that so?
	I've never heard that.
	Doctors get money for drugs that they prescribe?
	Stay with me.
	me.
	This is a very important call.

	A few weeks ago, we had on the man who's going to be the next mayor of New York, Curtis Sliwa.
	Well, I thought, you know what?
	We've got some friends across the pond.
	Why don't we see if we can find out who's going to be the next mayor of London?
	We figured out who it is.
	I'm not kidding.
	His name is Lawrence Fox.
	Lawrence, welcome to the program.
	Hi, Eric.
	How are you doing?
	I'm good.
	You're Horst from your first stump speech, aren't you?
	I am a bit.
	I was quite nervous doing my first stump speech, I have to say.
	People don't know this.
	Listen, I have to frame this, and you can feel free to interrupt me.
	And I'm not kidding.
	But I want people to understand that you're initially in your life, you're an actor.
	You're principally known as an actor.
	So people want to know, why did Lawrence Fox, the actor from the acting family, suddenly decide to go into politics and to say, yes, I would like to run, to be the mayor?
	Of London.
	I mean, again, remember that most of the audience is American.
	They cannot fathom what's going on in London.
	So give us an idea for those of us who are not following the horrors of what your current mayor is doing.
	Yeah, we'll get on to my current mayor.
	He's dreadful.
	I think the reason why I'm not acting now is because about a year and a...
	A year and a couple of months ago, I went on a TV show in England called Question Time.
	I went on that show and I got into an argument with someone who said that I wasn't allowed a view because of my white privilege.
	And I said, let's not be racist to each other.
	That went down pretty badly.
	So my show business career ended pretty quickly after that with the Actors Union in the UK calling for me to be denounced.

	The police kill every year more unarmed whites than they kill unarmed blacks.
	Heather McDonald says that a black man is 18 and a half times more likely to kill a cop, to kill a white cop than the other.
	Is that relevant to you?
	The number one cause of preventable death for young white men is accidents, car accidents, drownings, things like that.
	The number one cause of preventable death for young black men is homicide, almost always at the hands of another young black man.
	Who are unarmed, killed by cops, represents roughly one-third of one percent of all the blacks who are killed in this country every year.

	Hello, y'all. y'all.
	Alright.
	So, Mike and Largo, only because I realize we had a lot of time together, I'm just going to summarize here.
	He has two kids who are two kids, some adults, addicted to opioids, feels that the doctor over-prescribed.
	Everything in life.
	This is really important, my dear listeners.
	Everything in life has a price.
	Every decision in life, you pay a price for making the decision.
	The individual has to ask, what is the price?
	And then answer, is it worth paying?
	We live in an immature age that doesn't believe that there are prices paid.
	Like equity.
	Sounds great.
	Everybody will be equal.
	What is the price paid?
	The abolition of standards.
	Like in Oregon, where the Department of Education of Oregon is actually announced.
	There's no longer one right answer in math.
	That way, if you say two and two is five, you are not penalized.
	Check it, my friends.
	OED, Oregon Education Department.
	And that is happening increasingly.
	The Moral Idiot, who writes on classical music for the New York Times, a true moral idiot, Anthony Tomasini.
	He has advocated that they abolish blind auditions for orchestral positions.
	Blind auditions is when you put a curtain between those listening and the musician so that they can't, can't know the race or sex of the person playing.
	They can only know how well the person plays.
	You can do that with music.
	He has said no.
	Because you should hire people of color for the orchestra.
	So the price paid for equity is the end of standards.
	Does society want to abolish standards?
	If you're on the left, the answer is yes, because the left's aim is chaos.
	On opioids, there is a price paid for prescribing opioids for people in terrible pain.
	You will get opioid addicts in many instances.
	That is a terrible price.
	However, there is a terrible price paid for not prescribing opioids.
	Innocent people, undeserving people, live worthless lives of pain.
	Because let me tell you something, if you don't know this, and many of you don't, pain ruins your life.
	There's no such thing as rising above it.
	Real pain cannot be risen above.
	It destroys you emotionally and physically.
	So, is that the price you're willing to pay to make sure no one gets addicted?
	Anyway, they will get addicted.
	And your anti-prescribing opioids will only mean that the addict will get it from a street vendor who will probably have fentanyl in it and kill him.
	I know of such cases.
	So do you, probably.
	So, mature people, and the country has bred immaturity since World War II, since the end of World War II, mature people ask, what is the price?
	Raise your children to always ask the price.
	The only time people ask, what is the price, is when they're buying something.
	Ask it about everything.
	What is the price paid if I get married?
	What is the price paid if I have children?
	What is the price paid if I don't get married?
	What is the price paid if I don't have children?
	That's the question that should guide people's lives.
	So in the name of not having opioid addicts, we have people dying of horrific pain and buying street opioids.
	Which kill them.
	But at least the doctors are not over-prescribing.
	And doctors have said, correct!
	Courage is not a trait found in any profession, certainly not in medicine.
	Okay, that was a good one.
	That was important.
	So Texas, what is it, the Texas Rangers are filling up the stadium?
	Are they seated with one seat between them, or are they actually seated next to each other?
	Is that true?
	I think that's great.
	The only problem is, I don't want people to go to baseball games because of MLB taking the All-Star game from Atlanta, so I'm torn.
	On the one hand, I want to show contempt for the totalitarian notions of not gathering in crowds.
	On the other hand, I want Major League Baseball to fail.
	For its cowardice.
	So, I'm torn.

	Did you hear about the two teen girls who carjacked this Pakistani Uber driver?
	An immigrant from Pakistan, a family man, trying to make a living driving Uber in the pandemic.
	They carjacked him.
	He hung onto the car.
	The car tipped over, crushing him to death.
	Girls 13 and 15. Do you know what one of the girls yelled after they got out of the car that killed the man?
	I left my phone in the car!
	These are two monsters.
	True monsters.
	These girls personify evil.
	And guess what they were given in New York?
	Guess what sentence they were given?
	Carjacking.
	Homicide.
	Nothing!
	Nothing!
	Did you hear that?
	Nothing!
	There's a video of it.
	Nothing.
	Plea bargain.
	Down to nothing.
	Because they're black.
	That's why.
	I have no other possible explanation.
	Had they been white and the driver been black, do you think they would have gotten nothing?
	The system is corrupted by the left.
	Because everything the left touches, it ruins.
	Justice, art, sports, late night television, male-female relations, universities, colleges, high schools.
	Everything the left touches, it destroys.
	And that includes the legal profession and law.
	Uber Eats driver.
	Two teen girls, Daily Mail, accused of carjacking and killing Uber Eats driver in D.C. Sorry, not New York.
	D.C. Quote, reach plea deal ensuring they'll not be held past age of 21 or go to prison.
	Well, if they're not going to prison, what does it even mean they're held until 21?
	Do you understand that?
	Well, they're not held.
	I mean, they're free.
	So people who entered the Capitol and didn't touch anybody, didn't break one windowpane, the full weight of the FBI and the government is on them.
	Right?
	The insurrectionists.
	But these girls, hey, I don't even understand what a plea bargain is.
	There's nothing to bargain.
	They got nothing.
	The teens are said to have reached a deal with prosecutors that would ensure they won't be held past 821 nor be placed in prison facility.
	Anwar died when police said the girls armed with a taser sped off in his car as he clung to the driver's side with the door open and crashed seconds later.
	Mohammed Anwar, 66, died when police said the girls armed...
	Again, just imagine, black driver, two teenage whites.
	Just imagine, right?
	Do you even know of this story?
	Sped off in his car as he clung to the driver's side.
	It's an astonishing thing.
	Last week, the teens appeared via video in D.C. Superior Court as their lawyer and prosecutor.
	Bonnie Lindemann discussed the case with Judge Lynn Leibovitz.
	According to the Washington Post, Lindemann gave no indication that her office would try to transfer the older teen's case to adult court.
	Under D.C. law, the 13-year-old could not be prosecuted as an adult due to her age.
	Hmm.
	The judge set the next court date for April 20 to discuss the status of the case.
	Police have not identified the juvenile suspects, one of whom is from D.C. and the other from the neighboring Fort Washington, Maryland.
	They're thieves, he has heard saying as he attempts to pull the girl out of the driver's seat of the parked car.
	This is my car!
	Poor guy.
	The teen suddenly accelerates, sending the car speeding down Van Street Southeast, with Anwar still clinging onto the driver's side's door.
	At one point, the car is seen smashing into a metal fence from its left side, crushing the delivery driver between the barrier and car door.
	A screeching sound is heard, followed by a loud crash.
	The bystander filming the incident runs over to the site of the crash to find the car rolled over and the two girls climbing out of the wreckage.
	Anwar's body can be seen lying motionless on the corner of the sidewalk.
	As witnesses scrambled to get help.
	Two National Guardsmen who were in the area removed the juvenile suspect from the overturned car and detained them until police responded to the scene and arrested them.
	Anwar was eventually rushed to a hospital but could not be saved.
	He was described in a GoFundMe post as a hard-working Pakistani immigrant.
	Who came to the U.S. to create a better life for him and his family.
	This is touching.
	The GoFundMe campaign launched on behalf of his family has raised more than a million dollars to cover the cost of a funeral and to provide for his survivors.
	You know what would be really interesting?
	The victim was not white.
	The victim was not Christian.
	I presume.
	What is his full name?
	What's his first name?
	I don't know where his first name is.
	Was it Mohammed?
	I don't remember.
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	I'd like to know the race of the people who contributed to the GoFundMe campaign.

	That's suppression, because we know how black people are.

	They're not intelligent enough to get an ID put together.
	They can't go down to the DMV, or they can't figure out a way to get just a state ID. No, no, we can't expect our poor black friends to do that.
	That's the left.
	That's the mindset.
	That's the thinking of Democrats.
	Now, Ed Bastian's company...
	Delta won't be so forgiving for somebody who's too ignorant to get an ID and let them get on their plane.
	Because you can't fly Delta without a photo ID. A legitimate ID. But don't you dare expect a black or brown Georgian to be smart enough to figure out how to produce an ID when they vote.
	That's suppression.
	No.
	That's not suppression.
	That's idiocy.
	That is stupidity at the highest level, and everybody knows it.
	So good for the Georgia state legislature for pushing back and telling Delta to go stick it in your ear.

	Hi, Eric.
	How are you doing?
	I'm good.
	You're hoarse from your first stump speech, aren't you?
	I am a bit.
	I was quite nervous doing my first stump speech, I have to say.
	People don't know this.
	Listen, I have to frame this, and you can feel free to interrupt me.
	And I'm not kidding.
	But I want people to understand that you're initially in your life, you're an actor.
	You're principally known as an actor.
	So people want to know, why did Lawrence Fox, the actor from the acting family, suddenly decide to go into politics and to say, yes, I would like to run to be the mayor?
	Of London.
	I mean, again, remember that most of the audience is American.
	They cannot fathom what's going on in London.
	So give us an idea for those of us who are not following the horrors of what your current mayor is doing.
	Yeah, we'll get on to my current mayor.
	He's dreadful.
	I think the reason why I'm not acting now is that I'm not acting
	now.
	I think the reason why I'm not acting now is that I'm acting now.
	For those of you new to my program, as we pick up stations on a regular basis, a major characteristic of my program since I began broadcasting 35 years ago is that we talk about everything in life, not just politics.
	Politics is the end result of this hour, the Ultimate Issues Hour.
	How you understand or do not understand ultimate issues of life is what ultimately produces your political view.
	It's a very important hour.
	Knowledge is knowledge and wisdom is wisdom.
	This is about wisdom.
	What's the difference between knowledge and wisdom?
	Hell in a nutshell.
	If you have a map, your map has the knowledge of exactly where you are.
	But it has no way of telling you where to go.
	That's wisdom.
	The subject today is the very common phrase, follow the science.
	What does it mean?
	Really, what does that mean?
	Maybe it doesn't mean much.
	I'm going to be speaking to an astrophysicist.
	Yes.
	The Real Deal, an astrophysicist, professor of astrophysics, in fact, at the University of California, San Diego.
	He presents the new Prager video, Follow the Science, and I don't normally do this, but I think I'd like you to hear it before I talk to him.
	so here goes somebody somberly in tone science says or follow the science i get very nervous Science doesn't belong to any ideology.
	Science is the never-ending search for new knowledge.
	That's what science means in Latin, by the way.
	Knowledge.
	Not wisdom, not morality, not social policy.
	Knowledge.
	What we do with that knowledge is where wisdom, morality, and social policy enter the picture.
	Knowledge, it turns out, isn't so easy to come by.
	And sometimes what we think we know for certain, the Earth sure does look flat when we're standing on it, turns out not to be so certain.
	Of course I trust in basic scientific truths, those things for which there is overwhelming evidence, like, say, gravity, even that humans play a role in the warming of the planet.
	But scientists, even the best ones, can get things wrong.
	The brilliant astrophysicist Sir Fred Hoyle believed the universe existed in a steady state forever and had no beginning.
	But his view?
	Once held sacrosanct by all astrophysicists, no longer holds.
	It's been superseded by the Big Bang theory that the universe had a beginning and is still expanding.
	In the 20th century, some of the most respective scientists in the world, including Nobel Prize winners, believed in eugenics, the reprehensible idea that the human race could be improved by selective breeding.
	The National Academy of Sciences, the American Medical Association, and the Rockefeller Foundation supported it.
	By the middle of the century, it had been thoroughly rejected as quackery.
	No reputable scientist would have anything to do with this idea.
	So, we all need to get over this notion that just because someone, be it a politician, a bureaucrat, or even a scientist, employs the phrase, science says, means whatever they're saying is right.
	It might be right, but it might also be wrong.
	And if it's wrong, it won't necessarily be a bunch of scientists who say it's wrong.
	It might be one guy.
	Ask Einstein.
	One hundred scientists wrote a book explaining why his theory of relativity was wrong.
	He quipped, if I were wrong, then one would have been enough.
	It takes a lot to convince scientists to accept a new theory, especially if that new theory refutes what they had always believed.
	In some cases, what they'd stake their entire careers on.
	As Richard Feynman, one of the most eminent physicists of the 20th century famously said, science is the belief in the ignorance of experts.
	What Feynman is saying is that a good scientist should always maintain a healthy amount of skepticism.
	Science is by its nature provisional.
	Science would stagnate if we merely accepted proclamations of past authorities.
	So how do we do good science?
	This is not a new question.
	Since the 17th century, scientists have employed the so-called scientific method to guide their work.
	It's not a perfect guide by any means, but it's pretty darn good.
	The method involves 1. Formulating a theory.
	Predicting the evidence that should be found if the theory is true.
	3. Collecting data.
	4. Analyzing the data.
	5. Refining the theory and presenting evidence to other experts.
	The philosopher Karl Popper added one more item to this list.
	Popper said a subject is scientific if and only if it can be falsified.
	In other words, if your theory can't be tested, if it can't be proven wrong, it's probably not good science.
	This is just one reason why we have to be very careful about putting too much faith in models.
	They often can't be tested.
	Models are predictions of the future based on current data.
	They can easily get things wrong.
	First of all, the future, in case you hadn't noticed, is very hard to predict.
	And the further out you go into the future, the less secure the prediction.
	Second, the data may be incomplete or even erroneous.
	It's human nature to want definitive answers.
	But science can't always offer those.
	Furthermore, science is not concerned with fashion, authority, or majority opinion.
	Case closed is not a scientific expression.
	Science is never closed.
	If it was closed after Newton, you'd never have Einstein.
	Science has to be first and always about pursuing knowledge, not about advancing a social agenda no matter how noble it might be.
	Science has no political party.
	Of course, politicians should use the best available science to help them make informed decisions.
	But remember, scientific knowledge is not the same as wisdom.
	As the saying goes, knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit.
	Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.
	So let's continue to look to science for knowledge, knowledge we can use to improve the world.
	But let's not fool ourselves that science has all the answers to all our problems.
	It doesn't.
	That's one bit of wisdom this scientist can give you.
	I'm Brian Keating, professor of physics at the University of California, San Diego, and author of Losing the Nobel Prize for Prager University.
	Thank you.
	You know, I watched it a number of times.
	I do, of course, all the videos before they're released.
	And it's so good that just listening to it makes it that good.
	So, Brian Keating, I salute you.
	And welcome back to the show.
	Professor Keating is, again, a professor of astrophysics at the University of California branch in San Diego.
	Hi, Dennis.
	I'm just enjoying a ketchup smoothie.
	A ketchup smoothie, meaning?
	A ketchup.
	A ketchup smoothie.
	Oh, a ketchup smoothie.
	Oh, because of the tomato issue?
	Yeah, tomatoes are fruit, right?
	Yes, that was a good one.
	Yes, I know.
	I was thinking about it.
	I almost got sidetracked because I was thinking, have I ever had a tomato in a fruit salad?
	And it turned out I hadn't, which is a good thing.
	So, it's only one day that it's been out.
	Any reactions from colleagues or anyone else?
	Well, surprisingly or not, this video has many, many fewer thumbs down than my previous video, which had that three-letter word, God, in it.
	And as you know and have pointed out, those are the ones that receive the most opprobrium from listeners.
	But I did hear someone say in the comments, I do read all the comments, and I then consult my psychotherapist afterwards, but one said...
	After Brian is fired from the University of California for this video, he should definitely take up a career as an audiobook narrator.
	And so I'm doing that.
	It is inconceivable.
	As bad as things are at the universities, you're not going to be fired for this one.
	Aside from everything else, it doesn't use the word God.
	The follow the science thing is truly significant.
	Your attack on modeling is really, you know, quietly, understatedly done.
	May I then draw you out on the, and I'm not, I have an agenda and everybody knows it, so it's not an issue, but it doesn't matter.
	I want to know your reaction.
	There are two major, major areas of modeling determining policy.
	With regard to global warming and with regard to the number of people who will die from COVID without lockdowns.
	I'd like you to comment on both.
	You can all watch Professor Keating, of course, at PragerU.com.
	And this should be shown to everybody, especially your college-aged or high school-aged kid.
	Who believes that follow the science is all you need to do to know what truth is.
	We shall return.

	music The Delta found out that the Georgia skies aren't so friendly to woke.
	And the takeaway from what's happening with Delta and Coca-Cola and Home Depot, and these are Georgia companies that are absolutely terrified of the Twitter mob.
	That's all it is.
	They haven't bothered to read the Georgia election integrity law because they don't care.
	What's in the law, truth doesn't matter to them.
	They just don't want to be hounded by a bunch of angry leftists.
	Who are in Mama's bedroom, a basement in their underwear, furiously typing on their keyboards.
	So Missy writes, it's always nice when a progressive, woke company that goes all political gets walloped with a face full of reality.
	And that's exactly what happened over at Delta.
	So, for some reason, the Delta CEO... Issued a blistering statement condemning his company's home state and the efforts to have some voter integrity.
	Some election integrity.
	I mean, among other things, the law requires voter ID even if you're voting by mail.
	Oh, heavens to Betsy, we can't have that!
	Delta called that voter suppression.
	Even though, of course, you don't dare get on an airplane.
	At Delta without showing your ID several times.
	Is that flying suppression?
	Or is that just common sense?
	I had a kind of epiphany today.
	Maybe I'm a big softy deep down.
	If you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you.
	But sometimes, especially, let me get personal.
	Not when I get attacked, but even then, when it's really vituperative, when it's really despicable, I have a certain feeling.
	But when they attack my family, and when they've attacked my children, there's usually a point in the year.
	Where I just find myself asking a certain question.
	A very human question.
	Why do they do that?
	Why would you do that to a fellow human being?
	And it puzzles me.
	Because I could never do that.
	I can be harsh.
	I can be...
	Very robust, in what I say some would say aggressive.
	But it's not because I detest and wish to destroy human beings.
	I'm a rational human and I can separate the person from the ideology, the sin from the sinner.
	I don't wish to destroy my fellow man.
	If you threaten my family, I will kill you.
	That is what every father and husband should be prepared to do.
	You try to use lethal force against somebody I love and I will die to save them.

	This is the ultimate issues hour.
	The subject is follow the science, which ultimately means nothing.
	And at least that's my opinion.
	Perhaps more relevant is the opinion of my guest, the man who gave that terrific video at PragerU.com this week, titled Follow the Science.
	So you mentioned there that modeling may not be the best example of following science, because who knows the future?
	So I gave you two examples, I gave you and my listeners two examples of where modeling has Yeah, obviously I have very strong feelings.
	This has been really a true concern of mine, not just since COVID, but...
	COVID certainly exacerbated it.
	I am at the whims as a state employee of our governor, the grand Gavin Newsom, who had many proclamations that impacted the freedom, the happiness, even the performance of my daily life as a professor in the university that he is nominally responsible for impacted severely.
	And this is all done in the name of, quote-unquote, following the science.
	What I read in that, Dennis, was a secret message.
	Not follow the science, not listen to the science, but obey science.
	And that's very dangerous.
	But, of course, when you abandon other levels of authority, when you cede authority to higher powers, you cease thinking for yourself and you become more compliant in perhaps listening to people who are undeserving and have not earned the right to make proclamations you cease thinking for yourself and you become more compliant in perhaps listening to people who
	So my biggest problem is when we conflate science, which I think I've invested my life in, as I say, and when you conflate that with wisdom, which I think is the sine qua non, the prerequisite for having somebody worthy of listening to but never to obey unelected scientists. the prerequisite for having somebody worthy of listening to but That's not the purview of science.
	I wrote at the end of my column today on the issue of masks that people who say follow the science really mean follow the scientist that the media tells you to follow.
	Is that a fair critique?
	Yes, and as I say from Richard Feynman in the video, science should be...
	The belief in the ignorance of scientific experts.
	Yeah, that was a great quote.
	And he said something else, Dennis, that I'd love to say.
	People criticize me on the left in the university system.
	Why would you go on this conservative kind of outlet?
	And I say, just take the politics out of it.
	If you had a chance to reach millions of brilliant people around the world of different religious backgrounds, etc., and teach them for the first time in Prager University, what is the scientific method?
	You're saying, as a scientist, I should not take that opportunity?
	I think that's shameful.
	But as Feynman said, he said that when a good scientist is practicing science, she should never do something that is basically out of the purview of the layperson to understand.
	And I found this a lot throughout the last year, of people making prescriptions that seem to contradict common sense, but we were asked to accept it because we're not scientists.
	And what is a scientist?
	Someone with a very specialized toolkit, a very specialized job, doing specialized things, and Dennis, just as you would no more go down to the MRI machine at your local hospital, which is very specialized, and poke your head around there and ask to kick the tires, so too does the general public feel a lack of a right and entitlement.
	To understand the science I do.
	But if you can't explain it, if I can't explain it to the layperson who pays my salary, quite literally, as you know, I'm a failure.
	And I think it's a moral obligation for scientists, especially those that are supported by the public, to explain things in ways that a layperson can understand.
	And I felt scientists did a very poor job of that this past year.
	Some did amazing, some did a very poor job.
	I want to tell you a little story.
	It's happening literally now in my life.
	I made an appointment for an eye checkup.
	There's nothing wrong with my eyes, thank God, but I do get them checked about every other year with a wonderful, truly great doctor who, because of an accident, I think, saved my retina, which was a very big deal a couple of years ago.
	Anyway, it's a major hospital.
	I won't say the name because...
	I have great gratitude to this hospital.
	But in any event, they asked just a couple of days ago, did I travel anywhere in the last two weeks?
	And yes, I was in Florida this past weekend.
	So the visit is cancelled.
	And I'm thinking, that's science?
	So if I traveled to Eureka...
	In the very top of California, I could have the appointment, but I went out of state in an airplane with this totally advanced system of purifying the air.
	We don't even know of any sickness contracted there.
	How do you explain such idiocy on the part of scientists?
	I think there's a worship of the body.
	I think there's a worship of science.
	I made a companion video on my website, BrianKeating.com, Dennis, that goes into more detail about the history of science, the very checkered past of science.
	So maybe you'll indulge me and we can discuss some of those topics that I didn't include in my PragerU video because I think it shows the limits of what science should and should not be looked up to.
	And this is one of the dichotomies I'm craving talking to you about today, Dennis.
	How do we, on one hand, Trust the profession that could maybe, God forbid, identify some problem in your eye or maybe something as mundane as optics and get you some new contacts or prescription lenses.
	We have to trust that science.
	But then how do you balance that with the other side of the coin, which is whether or not you should obey as you did by your own admission.
	You didn't just barge your way into the hospital.
	So how do you balance that dichotomy, the power of science to transform our world?
	Into an unimaginable world that the kings of England 100 years ago would have gladly traded their life for, for a peasant today.
	How do we balance that dichotomy of the good that science can do with the limitations of what science can do?
	Okay, that's excellent.
	We'll continue.

	Coca-Cola, cowards.
	Read the damn bill.
	It doesn't suppress anybody.
	Unless you're of the mindset, you know, if you're black, you're too dumb to figure out how to get ID to vote.
	That's suppression.
	Because we know how black people are.
	You know how brown people are.
	They're not intelligent enough to get an ID put together.
	They can't go down to the DMV or they can't figure out a way to get just a state ID. No, no, we can't expect our poor black friends to do that.
	That's the left.
	That's the mindset.
	That's the thinking of Democrats.
	Now, Ed Bastian's company, Delta, won't be so forgiving for somebody who's too ignorant to get an ID and let them get on their plane.
	Because you can't fly Delta without a photo ID, a legitimate ID. But don't you dare expect a black or brown Georgian to be smart enough to figure out how to produce an ID when they vote.
	That's suppression.
	No, that's not suppression.
	That's idiocy.
	That is stupidity at the highest level, and everybody knows it.
	So good for the Georgia state legislature for pushing back and telling Delta to go stick it in your ear.
	They ought to say the same thing.
	They ought to do the same thing to Coca-Cola, to Home Depot, to any of these companies who are playing this pitiful game of lying about the Georgia election integrity law.
	They are lies.
	Even when they're not on some cable channel shock jock platform, they don't care.
	One of the bravest, best Americans I know.
	Was my colleague, Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
	She's sitting there at the White House Correspondents Association annual dinner when somebody else who says she's a comedian, well, says this as she's standing next to her.
	Every time Sarah steps up to the podium, I get excited because I'm not really sure what we're going to get.
	You know, a press briefing, a bunch of lies, or divide it into softball teams.
	It's shirts and skins, and this time, don't be such a little b****, Jim Acosta.
	I actually really like Sarah.
	I think she's very resourceful.
	Like, she burns facts, and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smokey eye.
	Like, maybe she's born with it.
	Maybe it's lies.
	It's probably life.
	And I'm never really sure what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
	You know, is it Sarah Sanders?
	Is it Sarah Huckabee Sanders?
	Is it cousin Huckabee?
	Is it Auntie Huckabee Sanders?
	Like, what's Uncle Tom but for white women who disappoint other white women?

	Hello, my friends.
	The Ultimate Issues Hour is the third hour every Tuesday.
	The slogan, Follow the Science, is the topic, and I have an astrophysicist discussing it.
	He's a professor at the University of California, San Diego, author of a book which I read.
	I am very proud to say because it has a lot of science in it, but he keeps you interested.
	It's a very rare gift that he has.
	And he'll certainly rivet you.
	I played the entire PragerU five-minute video, which I almost never do, but even without the video, which enhances our videos a great deal, but even without it, it is worth hearing.
	So we're talking about Follow the Science, and do you want to continue your thought, or do you want me to pose a new question?
	Now, I want to continue this, because actually you brought up eyes totally serendipitously, and actually I was thinking we'd discuss the Catechism of Judaism very briefly.
	It's the analog of Our Father that Catholics have, that our Catholic brothers and sisters have, and it's the Shema.
	And the Shema says, do not follow after your eyes and your heart, after which you...
	Prostrate yourself, or I guess it's prostitute yourself.
	Your rational Bible has made a tremendous impact on me.
	I urge everybody to read it.
	But look, Dennis, as scientists, what do I do?
	I make my living making eyes.
	I don't make them literally.
	I make them electronically.
	I make eyes and I make ears that listen to the universe, that look out on the universe.
	I augment the senses that God, if you will, gave to me.
	That's my job as a scientist, to see the invisible that people thought was witchcraft or sorcery just a hundred years ago.
	This is not something that has been around for thousands of years.
	And so I'm asking you for advice, and how do you balance that as a scientist with the power to create?
	Extrasensory perception with the benefit that it's real, that it works, that I can detect a faint molecule on the planet Venus, and it could be a harbinger of life on Venus, for example.
	How do I balance that awe that we should feel that men can create and women can create such exquisite augmentation to our God-given abilities, but not get haughty that we start to believe that we are as gods ourselves?
	How do I do that?
	Because a lot of scientists listen to your show, and this is something I'd love to hear you opine on.
	Well, I think you know that I have cited the Talmud, 2,800 years old, second holiest text in Judaism after the Bible.
	A rabbi in it says, the best doctors go to hell.
	PhDs, too.
	PhDs.
	Well, there he just might have said all PhDs.
	Maybe not all.
	But this is a terrible danger.
	Obviously, it's millennia old that people, which is ironic since doctors, until the modern period, actually usually made people worse.
	But that people who are there to heal...
	Can easily think they are the healers.
	And then they capitalize the H in healer.
	And it becomes a self-deified thing.
	This you don't know.
	You will find this, I'm sure, compelling.
	Many, many years ago, I lectured at a hospital to the doctors at the hospital.
	One of the doctors there was a fan of my work, invited me.
	Doctors showed up.
	It was the...
	In all of my life, I have been booed twice at a lecture.
	Once, I was invited, it's hilarious, on the anniversary of Deep Throat to speak on a panel of movie critics.
	And I was the only one there who didn't think it was a great moment in American history when Deep Throat was released.
	Despite seeing it five times in a row, Dennis.
	I'm sorry?
	Why do you mention that?
	I'm joking.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Well, the irony was, it was playing behind me, and I even looked at the audience of men and women, and I said, you know, I'm not a prude on this, I don't care what you do privately, it's a non-issue to me, but somehow men and women sitting together and a giant screen showing fellatio is not...
	It's not an uplifting moment, no pun intended, in life.
	You know, it's just, this is not a healthy moment.
	And I was booed loudly.
	The only other time I was booed was when I spoke to doctors at a hospital.
	And I said that doctors run the risk of self-deification.
	And they booed me.
	Which only proved my point, in my opinion.
	Anyway, look, I just want to get back to this follow the science.
	I don't even understand what the words mean.
	You point out that scientists are constantly questioning.
	So follow the science means question the science.
	But morally, I'll talk about that with you.

	If you believe that, I got a bridge to sell you.
	But sometimes, especially...
	Let me get personal.
	Not when I get attacked, but even then, when it's really vituperative, when it's really despicable, I have a certain feeling.
	But when they attack my family, and when they've attacked my children, there's usually a point in the year where I just find myself asking a certain question, a very human question.
	Why do they do that?
	Why would you do that to a fellow human being?
	Hello all, Dennis Prager, Ultimate Issues Hour with a professor of astrophysics at the University of California, San Diego, Brian Keating.
	He has his own podcast, by the way.
	He's a Renaissance man, and he has given the PragerU video this week on the issue of, quote, follow the science.
	What's your podcast?
	It's called Into the Impossible, and that's a quote from Sir Arthur C. Clarke who said, the only way of finding out the limits of what's possible is to venture beyond them into the impossible.
	And I talked to nine Nobel Prize winners so far, one today.
	I talked to our mutual friend, Dr. Stephen Meyer, last week, Ben Shapiro, and Michael Knowles, and Noam Chomsky, and even Larry Tribe as well on the podcast.
	I keep it politically neutral.
	But I say that, as I say, there is no Democratic constellation, there's no Republican asteroid, and we do need a safe space to explore ultimate issues.
	You do it one hour a week, and that suits you well.
	I decided I would emulate you and do the same thing.
	Are the sciences remaining apolitical?
	To some extent, there are many, many different fields of science which are feeling the impact, which is coming from accusations of what's called critical race theory, systemic bias, systemic racism.
	Look, we have a checkered history in science.
	You can't have it both ways.
	You can't say that science is, you know, we should question everything in science.
	But also say that science's past is perfect and completely not necessary to be redeemed in any way.
	And so, you know, there are famous bans on Jews and women and so forth throughout history and science.
	And it's impossible for me to believe that none of that goes on.
	The question is to what extent and to what effect.
	Right.
	So, follow the science is problematic, I was saying, before the break.
	I mean, on moral grounds, your point is on scientific grounds.
	Follow the science is maybe often meaningless.
	Because questioning the science is more important in many ways than following it.
	I'm just sort of paraphrasing you.
	But morally, it's truly absurd because science has no moral will.
	I mean, you mentioned eugenics.
	video, really.
	And why is that not following science?
	Right.
	Yeah.
	And the same scientist who invented the fertilizer that allowed us to eat breakfast, which is Well, you didn't eat breakfast because you intermittently fast, but I had two meals between breakfast and lunch already.
	And the scientist that enabled me to do that was a man by the name of Fritz Haber, who was a German Jew.
	Born in the 1800s, fiercely nationalistic, allied to Germany.
	He invented the process called nitrogen fixation, the Haber-Bosch process, as I talk about in this video on my YouTube channel, Dr. Brian Keating.
	And that process eventually made him tremendously wealthy and led to him winning the Nobel Prize.
	And along the way, he had the notoriety, Dennis, to become the leader of Germany's gas troops.
	In World War I, in particular, it wasn't just like he invented nuclear fusion, the idea of nuclear fission, that led to the atom bomb, as, you know, some would say Einstein's theory of relativity did.
	He actually went to the battle to witness the application of the gas, chlorine gas, that he helped to package into deliverable weapons in World War I, claiming tens of thousands of allied lives.
	Then, he never really regretted that, and in a macabre twist of fate, Some of his own family members were killed in the final solution using Zyklon B, which he had also invented as a pesticide.
	And just the fact of, like, do you listen to him about fertilizer?
	Sure, you could listen to him and follow his advice.
	Should you listen to him about nationalism?
	Of course not.
	The man was an ignoramus.
	And doubly more so for not ever expressing remorse.
	But I want to say one thing about the morality of scientists to other scientists, Dennis.
	When you tell somebody that there is this issue, say, of global warming, and you say there's no way to solve it other than the brute force method, which is to just terminate all carbon emissions, etc., you are actually sending a terrible message to young people.
	You're telling them, don't think creatively.
	Don't think outside the proverbial box.
	The fate is foreordained, and there is no possibility for redemption scientifically or otherwise.
	I think that's a curse.
	I think that's an awful thing to say to a young person.
	And so I wish that the scientists who were as vocal about the proclamations for destruction and so forth to come from the future, whether it be global warming, which I do believe, and I know you do as well, or whether it be COVID or something like that, they think, well, if we just said, well, we have to isolate everybody and shut everybody in the room, we might not have developed a vaccine.
	And so that is an example of science being guided by current lacuna, one of your lovely words, that impels people to better the planet through the scientific method of questioning.
	On the global warming, some people might have been surprised when you added that I believe in it.
	I believe in anything that science proves.
	And if it's proved, and I think it has, that the Earth's temperature has risen in the last 50 years, That's science.
	However, moving everything to solar and wind power, that's not science.
	That's a recommendation.
	And so that's, for me anyway, that is a good example of a living issue where it's not the same.
	Let me give you an example.
	Tell me if this is not a good example of where people don't, in their own lives, Don't people go for a second opinion?
	Yeah, absolutely they do, and that's part of the necessary doubt that one has to have in all sorts of things scientifically, that you need double-blind studies.
	The problem, Dennis, and just to play a little bit of God's advocate maybe, is to say, with things that only happen once, You can't replicate it.
	You can't say, hmm, let me go to a second planet where there is carbon emissions that come from whatever source you can insert there.
	We can't replicate that.
	We can't do a double-blind study.
	And all the more so when it's existential in current times.
	In other words, when people feel like their very existence is compromised, potentially, due to a pandemic.
	How do you set aside?
	Imagine doing an experiment.
	You say, I'm going to give Team A over here COVID. I mean, who's going to volunteer for such a controlled subject?
	So that's where models come in, and that's where overconfidence in models prevails.
	Okay, hold on.
	Hold on there.
	Overconfidence in models.
	I want you to continue that thought.
	When we come back, Brian Keating, professor of astrophysics, University of California.
	Thank you.
	Coca-Cola, cowards.
	Read the damn bill.
	It doesn't suppress anybody.
	Unless you're of the mindset, you know, if you're black, you're too dumb to figure out how to get ID to vote.
	That's suppression because we know how black people are.
	You know how brown people are.
	They're not intelligent enough to get an ID put together.
	They can't go down to the DMV or they can't figure out a way to get just a state ID. No, no, we can't expect our poor black friends to do that.
	That's the left.
	That's the mindset.
	That's the thinking of Democrats.
	Now, Ed Bastian's company, Delta, won't be so forgiving for somebody who's too ignorant to get an ID and let them get on their plane.
	Because you can't fly Delta without a photo ID, a legitimate ID. But don't you dare expect a black or brown Georgian to be smart enough to figure out how to produce an ID when they vote.
	That's suppression.
	No, that's not suppression.
	That's idiocy.
	That is stupidity at the highest level, and everybody knows it.
	So good for the Georgia state legislature for pushing back and telling Delta to go stick it in your ear.
	They ought to say the same thing.
	They ought to do the same thing to Coca-Cola, to Home Depot, to any of these companies who are playing this pitiful game of lying about the Georgia election integrity law.
	They are lies.

	Trending now on America First with Sebastian Borka.
	Even when they're not on some cable channel shock jock platform, they don't care.
	One of the bravest best Americans I know.
	Was my colleague, Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
	She's sitting there at the White House Correspondents Association annual dinner when somebody else who says she's a comedian, well, says this as she's standing next to her.
	Every time Sarah steps up to the podium, I get excited because I'm not really sure what we're going to get.
	You know, a press briefing, a bunch of lies, or divide it into softball teams.
	It's shirts and skins, and this time, don't be such a little b****, Jim Acosta.
	I actually really like Sarah.
	I think she's very resourceful.
	Like, she burns facts, and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smokey eye.
	Like, maybe Final segment, unfortunately.
	I enjoy this man immensely.
	Brian Keating is a professor of astrophysics at the University of California, San Diego.
	Author of, what is it, Losing the Nobel Prize?
	Is that right?
	Yeah.
	Which I read, by the way, and loved, and has his own podcast with very interesting people.
	Into the Impossible, is that it?
	Yep.
	I know your life, Brian Keating.
	So you were talking about the models issue, and we don't have a lot of time, but it's important.
	I just want to, at the risk of turning scatological, bring us all back and come along on a journey back in time as cosmologists are wont to do.
	Not billions of years, Dennis, but just 107 years ago to 1894. There was a crisis on Wall Street in Manhattan.
	There was a crisis in London.
	It was known as the Great Horse Manure Crisis of 1894. And scientists back then were looking at the mode of transportation that was most prevalent back then, the horse, and its impediment to economic and societal growth.
	And that horse was predicted, the use of horses as transportation modalities was modeled to have an impact that in 50 years from then, in other words, in the 1940s, That in every street in London and Manhattan's Wall Street would be buried under nine feet of horse manure.
	That you can look up in the Times of London.
	Too bad it didn't happen.
	Well, it could have.
	No, I lament the fact that it didn't happen.
	But again, if we had listened to the modelers back then, then a little thing known as the automobile would not have been invented, right?
	That's exactly right.
	So, as your reputation spreads in your profession, do you get a sense of ambivalence from colleagues, generally no comments?
	How do they react to you?
	Most of them say things like, I just watch your YouTube channel.
	I don't watch PragerU, but your video is unassailable.
	It's brilliant, and so forth.
	They're talking about the supplemental video I made to supplement my awesome PragerU video.
	Awesome because of what you guys do, I have to say.
	By the way, guys, I have to say out there, you guys do such a tremendous job with the supplementary material on your website.
	I sent it to all my friends and their kids' relatives.
	There's a study guide.
	There's a quiz.
	That goes along with this and my God or the Multiverse episode.
	I just want to commend you.
	That is a sign of true intellectual and academic integrity, and I just love being associated with it.
	I hope someday I'll get tenure, Dennis.
	I don't know what the living martyr or dean will say about it, but I hope I will get tenure at PragerU someday.
	I thought you wanted to be the women's volleyball team coach.
	Well, who says I can't do both, Dennis?
	Why limit my powers?
	You're a good man.
	But to answer your question seriously, You know, I've come to the conclusion that I want to do what's right.
	I want to do what's best for not only for myself.
	Let me just say you have.
	He's a wonderful man.
	Watch his video.
	Brian Keating at PragerU.
