Welcome To 2023! | Ep. 1638

The analysis of Gen Z girls is spot on. I am very worried about my soon-to-be 16 yr old niece and her mental state. She has shifted drastically from the girl she was 8 years earlier. It breaks my heart.

Thank you for your intelligent and wise words about Pope Benedict and his teachings. Being a European Catholic that much appreciates Jews and Israel, I feel touched to see a Jew recognizing the importance and wisdom of Pope Benedict.

In 1970 i was forced to read "the Population Bomb" and "the naked ape" as a make up assignment my senior year. When I look back I can clearly see the effort made to undercut my faith which I was not shy about. I had to write response papers which I took very seriously and consulted with theologins in my church. The funny thing is I never got either paper back with a grade. This experience actually strengthed my commitment to God. I bet they wish they'd never tried to manipulate me.

I enjoy Ben’s show, as well as the rest of DW. I love the speed of his talking, I get impatient with slow speakers. The problem is that it sheds the light on everything wrong in America. I feel the same, it’s disheartening. I have to limit what I watch because it depresses me, especially knowing there’s not much we can do. Thanks DW & Ben, I appreciate the honesty, and more importantly, you report factual information. 😊

Ben, the obvious answer to your question about McCarthy is that he will not say "no" to Joe Biden. That's why we call them RINOs.

Something I've been saying for years now, as someone who is not religious: I don't believe in the Bible, but the 10 commandments are some great rules to live by.

Family Guy is an American animated sitcom originally conceived and created by Seth MacFarlane for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The show centers around the Griffins, a dysfunctional family consisting of parents Peter and Lois; their children, Meg, Chris, and Stewie; and their anthropomorphic pet dog, Brian. Set in the fictional city of Quahog, Rhode Island, the show exhibits much of its humor in the form of metafictional cutaway gags that often lampoon American culture. The family was conceived by MacFarlane after developing two animated films, The Life of Larry and Larry & Steve. MacFarlane redesigned the films' protagonist, Larry, and his dog, Steve, and renamed them Peter and Brian, respectively. MacFarlane pitched a seven-minute pilot to Fox in December 1998, and the show was greenlit and began production. Family Guy's cancellation was announced shortly after the third season had aired in 2002, with one unaired episode eventually premiering on Adult Swim in 2003, finishing the series' original run. Favorable DVD sales and high ratings from syndicated reruns since then convinced Fox to revive the show in 2004; a fourth season would begin airing the following year, on May 1, 2005. Catherine Seipp of National Review Online described the show as a "nasty but extremely funny" cartoon.[2] Caryn James of The New York Times called it a show with an "outrageously satirical family" that "includes plenty of comic possibilities and parodies".[3] The Sydney Morning Herald named Family Guy the "Show of the Week" on April 21, 2009, hailing it a "pop culture-heavy masterpiece".[4] The New Yorker's Nancy Franklin said that Family Guy is becoming one of the best animated shows; she commented on its ribaldry and popularity.[5] IGN called Family Guy a great show, and added that it has gotten better since its revival. They stated that they cannot imagine another half-hour sitcom that provides as many laughs as Family Guy. The series has been nominated for 12 Primetime Emmy Awards and 11 Annie Awards, and has won three of each. In 2009, it was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series, the first time an animated series was nominated for the award since The Flintstones in 1961. In 2013, TV Guide ranked Family Guy the ninth Greatest TV Cartoon of All Time.[6] The series has also attracted criticism and controversy for its characterization, cutaway gags, sexual content, antisemitism, racism, violence, sacrilegious humor and writing. Many tie-in media based on the show have been released, including Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story, a straight-to-DVD special released in 2005; Family Guy: Live in Vegas, a soundtrack-DVD combo released in 2005, featuring music from the show as well as music created by MacFarlane and Walter Murphy; a video game and pinball machine, released in 2006 and 2007, respectively; since 2005, six books published by Harper Adult; and Laugh It Up, Fuzzball: The Family Guy Trilogy (2010), a collection of three episodes parodying the original Star Wars trilogy. A spin-off series, The Cleveland Show, featuring Cleveland Brown, aired from September 27, 2009, to May 19, 2013. On May 11, 2020, Fox renewed the series for a nineteenth season.[7][8] On September 23, 2020, Fox announced that the show would continue through a twenty-first season.[9] The twenty-first season premiered on September 25, 2022 and will include the show's 400th episode.[10] Currently, 399 episodes of Family Guy have been broadcast.
