Ben Stein Tackles Race, Politics, and Holiday Cheer
I always wish them happy holidays and, whatever their holiday is, despite what their holiday is, you know, I'll tell you something: the first amendment to the constitution when they gave freedom of religion.
Ever wondered what Ben Stein has to say about the state of America today? In this thought-provoking episode of 'The World According to Ben Stein', Ben and his co-host Judah Friedman welcome Gary Collins from SimpleLifeNow.com and Adam King, the prince of Pico, for a lively discussion. They kick things off with a chat about vaccines and the push for mandatory vaccinations, where Ben shares a humorous anecdote comparing today's mandates to past racial segregation in Chicago restaurants.
But that's just the beginning. The conversation soon shifts to the current state of the Republican Party and the perplexing issue of insider trading in Congress. They don't hold back as they dissect why Fox News seems to have lost its edge. Things get more intense when the topic turns to race in America. Ben recounts his own experiences with segregation and expresses concern over what he sees as a resurgence of divisive policies.
The episode wraps up on a lighter note with a heartfelt discussion about Christmas and the vital importance of religious freedom. If you're looking for a podcast that blends humor, personal stories, and deep dives into pressing issues, this episode is a must-listen.
