Surely they can spare a few shekels so that the poor or the elderly like me do not have to fall on their swords.
What drives someone to say, 'Can we let Trump be Trump?' Well, in this lively episode of 'The World According To Ben Stein,' Ben, Judah Friedman, and Peter Roff don't shy away from asking the hard questions and cracking a few jokes along the way. The trio tackles everything from the Jeffrey Epstein saga to the puzzling world of dental insurance, with plenty of laughs and banter thrown in for good measure.
They ponder why dental insurance doesn't seem to ease the financial burden and explore how the American Dental Association's lobbying efforts have been outgunned by their medical counterparts. Ben Stein, with his trademark wit, shares anecdotes about inflation woes, while Peter Roff brings a historical perspective on censorship and free speech.
They dive into the complexities of cancel culture and the delicate balance between free speech and societal norms, especially in the wake of an Irish comedian's arrest for making jokes at Heathrow Airport. Judah Friedman keeps the conversation flowing, questioning whether political figures are being unfairly targeted and how the media plays into these narratives. It's a mix of serious discussion with a light-hearted touch that makes you question what you've always taken for granted. So, what's your take?
Should we let Trump just be Trump, or is there more at stake? Join Ben, Judah, and Peter as they dissect these issues with humour and candour, leaving you both entertained and informed.
