In this segment of the Dennis Prager Show’s “Happiness Hour,” host Dennis Prager fields calls from several listeners who discuss the concept of feeling lucky versus unlucky. Jeff from Idaho shares the profound loss of two children, yet says his faith makes him feel blessed and lucky despite pervasive suffering. He suggests a practical exercise: each time a listener feels lucky, they draw a line on one side of a chart, and when they feel unlucky, a line on the other side, to track perspective over a week. David from Colorado Springs, who is battling stage‑4 colon cancer, describes how the Happiness Hour helped him realize that while events are beyond his control, he can choose his response, fostering optimism. Prager reflects on the impact of the program, noting it is non‑political and wonders how listeners reconcile his happiness‑focused advice with his broader political commentary. He thanks callers Jeff, Jean, Todd, Joan, Rob, and Dick, and invites more callers to share experiences, reinforcing the theme of gratitude, choice, and the habit of tracking lucky versus unlucky moments.
