On #TheWorldAccordingToBenStein for May 25, 2023, our panel examines why Roger Waters uses his tremendous creative talents to spread anti-Semitism and what he hopes to achieve. Also, @BenStein, @JudahFriedman, and @TheRoffDraft consider how education is changing, how to motivate young people to learn (Hint: It has to do with the subject of a well-known Pink Floyd song), and why Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is running for president. Please Judah recounts his heart-stopping near-brush with death. Have a listen. And a nice piece of pie. What do you have to lose?

Ben Stein and co-host Judah Friedman are joined by former Trump EPA Chief of Staff Mandy Gunasekara to discuss the ongoing challenge to her Mississippi citizenship … her home state as the status quo attempts to keep her off the ballot. Plus, we discuss how the war on prescription drugs is misguided and results in doctors withholding pain medication from those in obvious need (just ask Judah and Ben). We also discuss the need for US House Republicans to use their subpoena authority, we assess the question of why did Russia invade Ukraine, and so much more.

#TheWorldAccordingToBenStein for May 16, 2023 -- @BenStein, @JudahFriedman, and @TheRoffDraft look at the #DurhamReport… Did that man investigate anyone? Anyone? Anyone? Plus the history of the Korean War, and illegal aliens take over New York City school gymnasiums. “Deal with it,” NYC Mayor Eric Adams tells parents who are keeping their kids out of school in protest. All that and the inside story on Hollywood Awards shows on the latest edition of America’s favorite new podcast.

#TheWorldAccordingToBenStein for May 15, 2023 – On this very special episode, @BenStein, @JudahFriedman, and @TheRoffDraft pay tribute to the most important people in the world: Mothers. Plenty of whom can be found in Hollywood and Washington, D.C. Then we look at whether race has anything to do with academic achievement and how by supporting the transgender movement, many progressives are rolling back what the women’s movement accomplished from the 1970s forward. Keep those cards and letters coming – we may read some of them on air someday. Plus Why independent's are shifting toward President Trump.

On the May 11 edition of The World According to Ben Stein, we take a look at why some people have such a tough time saying America is a great country. Also, @BenStein, @JudahFriedman, and @TheRoffDraft consider whether we’ve reached the end of the conversation about racism and why. And Ben asks Peter to explain why there are no good Vietnamese restaurants in Alexandria Va., anymore – which means Judah has to have Sushi on his birthday. All this upcoming on the latest edition of #TheWorldAccordingtoBenStein.

Ben Stein and cohost Judah Friedman discuss the demise of Fox News. Plus why the firs amendment needs to be protected at all cost, even if you hate what is being said. Plus why so few know so little about the economy. Plus a lot more.

On the May 4 edition of #TheWorldAccordingtoBenStein, your intrepid podcasters take a look at the latest from NYC, where violence in the subway has reignited the debate over what constitutes self-defense. Then @BenStein, @JudahFriedman, and @TheRoffDraft dive into the deepest, darkest realms of high finance to understand why banks fail and what should be done about protecting individual depositors. After that, we look at why the U.S. Navy is using an online drag queen to recruit the next generation of seamen and women. All that and much more from the podcast that’s too dangerous for some sites to host.

Ben Stein and co-host Judah Friedman are joined by former Trump EPA chief of staff Mandy Gunasekara to discuss the economic outlook with an actual economist, and the cruel harm caused by the ESG (environmental, social and governance) movement. We don’t believe any American should lose their job because some woke, intellectual in a pointy hat determined they no longer work for a “good” company. We also discuss the need for God – a true restoration in everyday life – and the alarming ways secularism manifests itself: climate extremism, transing the kids, and a suppression of speech. Finally, we clear the air on whether Ben Stein was in fact deep throat, and so much more.
