Dennis Prager’s Status

Dennis Prager suffered a spinal cord injury in an accident in November 2024.

He has now stated he’s paralyzed, which I think was something left unsaid until recently.

I listened to every minute of his radio program via the paid subscription when it was on the air. It has been off the air since his accident (he had guest hosts at first, if I recall correctly, until his company shuffled the lineup).

He was fairly busy in addition to the radio program, with writing books and columns, his PragerU, public speaking and appearances, endorsements, and other video and audio media he’d do (the Dennis and Julie podcast, Fireside Chats, etc.).

I expect he will not be returning to doing a daily radio program. Not because a paralyzed person can’t do radio - they can, although for all I know he has difficulty breathing - but because even before the accident he was feeling the limits of his time. Based on things he’s said over the years, I’d think completing his Rational Bible series and other writings, along with planning the future of PragerU, take priority.

I pray he has many good years still ahead of him.

While I agree with most of his opinions and positions, I contend his highest priority is telling men to marry and have children; I have many posts here arguing against many of his claims in that area and my position is most men shouldn’t legally marry.

I have been reluctant to make new posts along those lines referencing him, and bringing past entries referencing him that are still relevant back to the top of the blog.

I might only focus on what others in the public square are saying, or I might resume referencing Dennis Prager’s fixation. But if I do the latter, I didn’t want to do so without first pausing to offer my prayers for him here and acknowledging that he’s not in the same position he used to be to clarify and defend his positions.
