The Glenn Beck Program - 11⧸15⧸17 - Priorities Off Kilter？ (Steve Dease and Johnnie Moore join Glenn)

00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, on demand.

00:00:09.940 Love. Courage. Truth. Glenn Beck.

00:00:15.440 Susan had a decision to make. It's a decision that millions of Americans are making.

00:00:21.040 She could buy health care for her and her husband or not.

00:00:25.420 It was a difficult decision because both options would hurt them financially.

00:00:30.300 She calculated she would have to spend more than $12,000, including premiums of nearly $500 a month and a $6,850 deductible,

00:00:41.620 to get anything beyond preventive benefits from the cheapest exchange plan available through the, quote, affordable CARE Act.

00:00:51.840 It wasn't affordable for her.

00:00:55.420 That was a great deal more than paying the $1,500 tax penalty.

00:01:02.520 So Susan decided to take her chance and not buy health care.

00:01:05.900 Instead, she would pay for her family's doctor's visits out of pocket.

00:01:09.560 And if something catastrophic were to happen, she said, I feel like it's just better to die.

00:01:15.720 Welcome to the beautiful health care designed by our government.

00:01:20.600 Maybe a little dramatic, but Susan's situation is not unique.

00:01:25.200 In 2016, 6.5 million of us here in this country, in order to comply with the individual mandate in Obamacare,

00:01:35.240 decided just to pay the penalty instead of buying health care.

00:01:38.380 That's craziness.

00:01:42.120 The individual mandate has been unconstitutional.

00:01:45.480 It's a nightmare since it was signed into law.

00:01:48.400 But today, there is hope that we can forget this whole mandate fever dream for good.

00:01:54.100 The Senate Republicans have added the repeal of the individual mandate to their tax reform plan,

00:02:00.000 which is a step in the right direction.

00:02:06.500 But will they do it?

00:02:08.040 And will everybody vote for it in the Senate?

00:02:10.440 Here's the one rule of thumb they really need to know.

00:02:14.560 Stopping unconstitutional laws and not starting new unconstitutional laws.

00:02:21.180 Pretty good rule of thumb for this administration.

00:02:31.300 It's Wednesday, November 15th.

00:02:33.720 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:37.400 Glad you're here.

00:02:38.300 We have a really unbelievable program for you.

00:02:42.620 Johnny Moore is going to be here talking about the martyr's oath.

00:02:48.700 How people look at their faith differently over in the Middle East.

00:02:57.720 And they have a much different view of what it means to be a Christian than I think we do here in America.

00:03:07.160 Also, we want to welcome CNN to the bandwagon, who is finally looking into slavery in the Middle East that is ongoing today.

00:03:21.620 They just started a report on what they're finding in Libya, that the slave trade is still going on.

00:03:28.840 Yes, yes, yes, it is.

00:03:31.100 And it's not just Libya, CNN, but we appreciate the fact that you are on board.

00:03:37.680 Something that we have been talking about for a while with the Nazarene Fund.

00:03:41.380 But at least someone is reporting on the slave trade.

00:03:47.760 It's kind of, it's amazing when you see this story from CNN.

00:03:53.160 Can we actually play this?

00:03:55.280 Sure.

00:03:55.640 Play just the auction block part.

00:03:59.400 This is a video from CNN.

00:04:03.660 A man addressing an unseen crowd.

00:04:09.380 Big strong boys for farm work, he says.

00:04:13.940 400.

00:04:17.480 700.

00:04:19.680 700.

00:04:22.140 800.

00:04:22.780 The numbers roll in.

00:04:25.420 These men are sold for 1,200 Libyan pounds.

00:04:28.900 $400 a piece.

00:04:31.640 You are watching an auction of human beings.

00:04:36.360 Another man, claiming to be a buyer.

00:04:39.260 Off camera, someone asks,

00:04:41.220 What happened to the ones from Niger?

00:04:44.860 Sold off, he's told.

00:04:47.180 CNN was sent this footage by a contact.

00:04:49.640 After months of working, we were able to verify the authenticity of what you see here.

00:04:55.320 We decided to travel to Libya to try and see for ourselves.

00:04:59.200 So at least someone is bringing attention to this.

00:05:04.140 But this is not the, this is not even the worst slave trade that's going on in the Middle East.

00:05:09.080 But we, we look at this, and then you look at what American television is claiming as news today.

00:05:21.920 And you kind of think, you know, we might have our priorities a little screwed up.

00:05:28.640 We might have them just a little off kilter.

00:05:32.620 One of these things is really bad.

00:05:36.220 And the rest of them are kind of just annoyances.

00:05:39.820 You think?

00:05:40.700 Yeah.

00:05:41.180 Yeah.

00:05:41.540 Yeah.

00:05:42.000 I woke up this morning to see that my iPhone 10 is supposed to arrive today.

00:05:47.580 Oh, really?

00:05:48.180 Yeah.

00:05:48.500 It's supposed to come today.

00:05:49.520 And I was, I got really frustrated because when I clicked on the track your shipment link.

00:05:53.820 Oh, no.

00:05:54.500 It wasn't working.

00:05:55.620 I couldn't tell from this stupid UPS.

00:05:58.660 I'm surprised you even showed up for work today.

00:06:00.600 It was, I almost burned the whole house down in protest.

00:06:03.760 Yeah.

00:06:03.960 Forget about those slave.

00:06:05.040 I don't even know what I was talking about.

00:06:06.500 Yeah.

00:06:06.720 I mean, you know what?

00:06:07.200 You can watch the video of that slave block in crystal clear video on the iPhone 10.

00:06:14.400 And it really, the data comes through really cleanly.

00:06:17.100 Yeah.

00:06:17.180 I'm glad to hear that.

00:06:18.300 It's great.

00:06:18.520 I'm glad to hear that.

00:06:19.620 Sure.

00:06:19.860 But don't drop it because it's very breakable.

00:06:21.820 The whole thing's made out of glass, Glenn.

00:06:23.320 So you got to make sure you get that case on there right away.

00:06:25.340 So let me, let me take another story that is, that is really huge in its consequence, but

00:06:35.080 nobody really seems to be addressing it in the proper way.

00:06:38.900 The Sean Hannity boycott.

00:06:40.740 Now, if you're a, you know, a listener of this program, you know that Sean and I have a hot

00:06:48.220 and cold relationship and that's fine.

00:06:50.720 We're supposed to disagree with stuff.

00:06:52.900 We're not, you know, we're not in lockstep on everything.

00:06:56.100 That's fine.

00:06:57.840 However, I support his point of view.

00:07:00.640 I support his right to have his point of view.

00:07:04.740 Nobody should be shutting people's points of view down.

00:07:07.640 Nobody should be shutting Michael Moore down.

00:07:10.740 You have a right to your point of view.

00:07:13.800 Now, can you get people to listen to it or watch it?

00:07:17.360 That's up to the free market.

00:07:20.400 That's never been good enough for media matters and media matters has a very well-documented

00:07:28.160 now, thanks to Cheryl Atkinson hit squad where they go out and they'll spend millions of

00:07:37.480 dollars and they will destroy people and it's what they tried to do to me.

00:07:47.480 Now they're doing it to Sean Hannity and this is like the fifth bite at the Sean Hannity

00:07:51.560 Apple.

00:07:51.900 But here's why this one is incredibly dangerous.

00:07:58.960 Right now they are saying that Sean Hannity is supporting a pedophile.

00:08:04.980 And he is giving airtime to pedophiles and and he shouldn't do that and we should shut that

00:08:15.060 down immediately.

00:08:16.760 So they are asking for a boycott of Sean Hannity because he's supporting pedophiles.

00:08:23.760 Now, what is that exactly?

00:08:25.940 That is the fact that he had Roy Moore on his show Friday to answer the charge of you've

00:08:36.540 had sex with a 14 year old.

00:08:39.600 Sean was widely admired for this for this interview.

00:08:45.760 Credible journalists on the left said they couldn't believe it that he held his feet to

00:08:54.260 the fire.

00:08:54.720 This wasn't a typical Sean Hannity, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

00:08:58.580 He did his job.

00:09:00.700 He asked him tough questions and didn't let him squirm out of it.

00:09:07.100 Yesterday he said, you know, some things are not adding up here, judge, and you've got to

00:09:11.900 answer this in the next 24 hours or I'm done.

00:09:16.740 That's not good enough.

00:09:19.280 Now, let's take Sean Hannity out.

00:09:21.320 Let's take let's take left and right out.

00:09:24.220 Let's take Fox News, all of it.

00:09:26.220 Just take it out.

00:09:28.860 What Media Matters is suggesting is that someone can be accused of something.

00:09:37.200 And the media should not put them on the air so they have the opportunity to, quite honestly,

00:09:47.920 explain themselves or hang themselves.

00:09:51.120 I've always found you let people talk.

00:09:53.440 They usually hang themselves.

00:09:54.880 So what Media Matters and what some now in the media are cheering because they just want

00:10:03.380 Sean Hannity to go away, what they're cheering is a system to where we cannot answer a charge.

00:10:13.580 Think of the world you are cheering for.

00:10:16.580 That somebody can charge you with something, not even legally, just just throw out a charge,

00:10:24.840 an accusation.

00:10:26.560 And you're not allowed on the media to be able to make your case.

00:10:32.860 This is the most dangerous thing I have ever seen.

00:10:37.300 I've seen a lot of really bad stuff with the media.

00:10:40.580 And I've seen some really bad trends and we are headed for disaster.

00:10:48.500 But if the media doesn't wake up and put their personal views aside and say, look, I don't

00:10:56.860 like Sean Hannity, I don't like Fox News, whatever it is, but this has got to stop.

00:11:05.580 If they don't say this now, first they came for the trade unions, but I wasn't a member

00:11:12.260 of the trade unions, so I said nothing.

00:11:17.100 That's how that poem starts.

00:11:20.720 First they came for the trade unions.

00:11:24.260 Well, first they came for Fox News.

00:11:26.440 First they came for Sean Hannity.

00:11:28.460 First they came for somebody who was just trying to clear their name in the press.

00:11:34.700 Whether you believe Roy Moore or not, doesn't matter.

00:11:41.520 The man has a right to be heard.

00:11:47.140 I don't particularly believe him.

00:11:51.660 I don't think that, I mean, I wouldn't have voted for him and I don't believe him.

00:11:56.540 However, he has a right to state his case and he has a right to do it on the most credible

00:12:05.900 news network and the most credible news organizations.

00:12:10.000 Why should he be, why should he be relegated only to Fox News?

00:12:17.000 And why should he be, why should he be relegated?

00:12:22.940 Let's say you reverse that and say, well, we would just want to get rid of Fox News because

00:12:26.280 it's always, you know, just so slanted.

00:12:29.360 Excuse me?

00:12:31.120 Have you ever seen the way people who believe in conservative things are treated by the left

00:12:37.440 and the media?

00:12:38.140 There has to be some balance here.

00:12:42.500 You have to be able to make your case in front of an MSNBC and in front of a Fox.

00:12:50.080 I don't agree with the president and I didn't agree with the last president when the last

00:12:55.060 president would only go to YouTubers and have somebody who was, you know, in a, in a bathtub

00:13:01.520 interviewing him.

00:13:03.680 I want real journalists and I want somebody from CNN and I want somebody from Fox to interview

00:13:10.200 the president.

00:13:11.640 What happened to John F. Kennedy in a speech he gave in the 1960s where he was, he was eviscerating

00:13:21.240 the press.

00:13:22.820 Don't just tell me what you think.

00:13:25.800 Don't, don't feed the public what you think they want to hear.

00:13:29.820 Don't ask me the easy questions.

00:13:32.440 Ask me the hard questions.

00:13:34.860 You need to keep all of us accountable.

00:13:39.140 Can you imagine a president saying that today and actually meaning it and actually meaning

00:13:45.660 it?

00:13:47.140 I want you to hold me accountable.

00:13:50.720 And can you imagine a press that had enough honor in them that they would and they wouldn't

00:13:58.820 take that as an invitation to grind their acts?

00:14:03.840 We either believe in a few simple truths that used to be self-evident and I fear they are

00:14:10.020 no longer.

00:14:11.660 We either believe that somebody is innocent until proven guilty or we don't.

00:14:19.700 We either believe that there is freedom of press and freedom of speech or we believe in mob

00:14:28.480 justice.

00:14:31.300 Mob rule.

00:14:33.620 Loudest voice.

00:14:34.960 Biggest bully wins.

00:14:37.420 I got news for you.

00:14:39.200 If you don't think that we're already at biggest bully wins.

00:14:44.380 Explain the last election.

00:14:45.980 Why did Donald Trump win?

00:14:50.020 Two reasons.

00:14:51.320 Hillary Clinton sucked.

00:14:54.060 Second reason.

00:14:55.900 Donald Trump is a bully.

00:14:58.500 And the American people wanted somebody to say shut up and sit down.

00:15:05.040 That's why.

00:15:06.100 Now, do you want to continue the bully?

00:15:11.960 Do you want to continue with a press who is going to then get stronger and stronger because

00:15:18.560 of special interests and they will tell and be cheered by the left?

00:15:25.140 They will tell somebody else on the other side, shut up and sit down because I have news

00:15:31.260 for you.

00:15:32.820 The reason why I had a real problem with the bully politics of Donald Trump is a it's not

00:15:39.420 who we are.

00:15:40.540 But B, as I said with Barack Obama, you don't want to do these things, guys, because you don't

00:15:50.080 know who's coming next.

00:15:52.240 You don't know what the next president will be like.

00:15:54.900 To beat Donald Trump, you're going to need a bigger bully.

00:16:02.780 When do we when do we surrender?

00:16:04.980 When do we say this is insane?

00:16:08.560 When are we going to start talking common sense to one another?

00:16:11.760 When are people going to start standing up for principle?

00:16:16.180 And I mean, I mean this on the left and the right.

00:16:22.300 This monologue is really about the left.

00:16:26.840 When are you going to stop cheering media matters because, you know, if somebody was doing

00:16:34.940 it to you on the other side, you wouldn't be able to handle it.

00:16:40.740 You would be asking for government protection.

00:16:43.640 You would be you would be calling them the worst names ever, and they would deserve it.

00:16:51.600 These tactics are fascistic, and they are leading to a fascistic world and a fascistic media.

00:17:01.280 A man has a right to have his voice heard.

00:17:05.880 And the left and the right have their right to be able to be heard themselves.

00:17:17.040 Stop silencing people.

00:17:19.880 It's wrong.

00:17:21.420 And it will lead.

00:17:23.900 I don't even need to finish.

00:17:25.480 You know where it always leads.

00:17:26.900 I'll just guess really good things.

00:17:35.620 Is that where you were going?

00:19:02.620 Glenn Beck.

00:19:08.800 Steve Dace is coming up on the other side of the break in just a few minutes.

00:19:16.320 He's a friend of Roy Moore, and he says we're looking at this all wrong, and I want to hear

00:19:25.900 his opinion and hear him out, so we'll talk to him coming up in just a second.

00:19:29.020 Yeah, I think he's struggling with it, too, but he's holding more at the moment.

00:19:32.600 He's going to explain that coming up.

00:19:33.780 He also mentioned the individual mandate.

00:19:35.100 We talked about that a little bit, and right now, because that's going to be in this tax

00:19:38.940 plan, the media is kind of bashing it and saying one of the big headlines of that is

00:19:43.860 13 million people will lose their insurance.

00:19:46.380 There's a million things wrong with that stat, including, obviously, it's a 2027 number.

00:19:53.000 It's not even a near-term number.

00:19:55.520 Obviously, I think on its face, it's ridiculous that 13 million people would drop their insurance

00:19:59.820 because this penalty went away, but even if you take it all into account and take it all

00:20:05.440 serious in a serious manner, you look at the actual report they're talking about from the

00:20:10.840 CBO.

00:20:11.340 This is in the report.

00:20:13.000 If eliminating the mandate was accompanied by changes to tax rates or premium tax credits,

00:20:18.840 then the changes would have different effects.

00:20:20.540 It's part of a tax reform plan.

00:20:23.300 It's specifically addressed in the report.

00:20:27.800 Glenn Beck.

00:20:36.900 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:42.280 Steve, Steve Dace is a friend of mine and one of the very few.

00:20:47.400 I mean, if I'm in a battle and I need somebody to watch my back and I need to know where they

00:20:55.460 stand and they're never going to change, it's Ben Shapiro and Steve Dace and probably Mark

00:21:05.980 Levin.

00:21:08.480 Who would you say?

00:21:10.040 Jonah Goldberg, I feel like.

00:21:11.200 Yeah, Jonah Goldberg.

00:21:12.040 So it's a it's a small, very small band of rebels, but it's I know where they stand.

00:21:21.720 Steve, I have a lot of respect for because he is not he doesn't jump on bandwagons.

00:21:27.560 And when he says, wait a minute, I need to I need to think this out with you.

00:21:34.520 I think we should listen.

00:21:35.900 Now, I am I am not a supporter of Roy Moore.

00:21:40.980 And Steve came out with a really good editorial yesterday and said, wait a minute.

00:21:46.960 And I wanted him to come on and talk to us about it.

00:21:49.960 Steve, how are you?

00:21:51.660 I'm well, Glenn.

00:21:52.500 How are you?

00:21:52.940 Very good.

00:21:54.220 So I think you are in the same position that I am in with Bill O'Reilly.

00:21:59.960 You I know Bill O'Reilly.

00:22:02.220 I have talked to him about these things personally.

00:22:06.140 And I have a long I have long experience with Bill.

00:22:11.700 And I I just happen to believe him.

00:22:14.700 And it puts me in a very uncomfortable and unpopular situation.

00:22:21.220 Is this where you are with Roy Moore?

00:22:24.540 I think that's a good analogy, you know, not knowing the depth of your relationship with

00:22:30.380 Bill, but obviously you guys as former peers and co-workers.

00:22:34.580 And when you look at, you know, I've gotten emails from people, I'm sure you have, you

00:22:39.140 know, why is Dace defending more?

00:22:41.020 I get emails from people.

00:22:42.140 Why is Beck have, you know, Bill O'Reilly on?

00:22:44.760 I'm like, I don't know.

00:22:45.340 Go ask Glenn.

00:22:45.860 I'm sure he's got a good answer.

00:22:47.060 Yeah.

00:22:47.360 I mean, if it's not Glenn Beck, ask Glenn Beck, you know?

00:22:49.120 Yeah.

00:22:50.300 But I think when you look at the situation with O'Reilly, whether people agree with what

00:22:55.100 you're doing or not, you have a lot bigger platform than he does.

00:22:59.140 You don't need him to come on and grow your audience.

00:23:01.280 Similarly, most people didn't know who in the Sam Hill Roy Moore was until about a month

00:23:06.520 and a half ago.

00:23:07.480 Okay.

00:23:07.620 So I don't need Roy Moore to grow my platform or anything of that nature.

00:23:11.600 I have no vested interest in this other than I just want to make sure that we're not breaking

00:23:18.220 the commandment of bearing false witness.

00:23:21.060 And if we're not, and justice must be done, it will break my heart that essentially I elevated

00:23:28.860 if these allegations are proven true, a sociopath.

00:23:32.100 Because that's really what we're describing, Glenn.

00:23:34.100 We're really saying that this guy got admitted to West Point, which is 1% of the 1%, graduated,

00:23:40.540 which is 1% of the 1% of the 1%.

00:23:42.600 Went to Vietnam, became a war hero, came back.

00:23:46.180 The immediate aftermath of that, while getting to be the DA of Etowah County, was a sociopath,

00:23:52.420 child predator, did this for this period of time, got married, and then for the last 33

00:23:57.840 years, he didn't even remove the mattress tags off of his box springs.

00:24:02.960 That's the narrative.

00:24:04.120 And if the allegations prove true that he's essentially a sociopath, I will buy into that.

00:24:10.880 And it'll break my heart.

00:24:12.840 And I will apologize profusely to everyone in America I recommend it to, believe me.

00:24:16.740 And I'll accept all the consequences to what that will do to my own credibility.

00:24:20.600 But since it's possible, it's true, which therefore means that I have, you know, clearly

00:24:26.860 questionable judgment here in elevating him, then I think maybe it's prudent for me to pause

00:24:33.140 before I drop the guillotine as well.

00:24:35.860 Because there are some things about this that just don't add up.

00:24:39.780 It doesn't add up that at the time he's being investigated by the state bar, no one comes

00:24:45.900 forward to say, hey, that's the creeper dude from the local mall.

00:24:49.720 No, that's Matthew McConaughey from Dazed and Confused.

00:24:52.060 Nobody did that.

00:24:53.320 And then a few years later, when he runs for circuit judge, he's the first Republican to

00:24:57.780 win in that county since before the Civil War, and he gets a super majority of the vote.

00:25:03.280 Two months ago, he won that county by 14 points in a primary.

00:25:08.000 You know, if you go back to the original Ten Commandments fight, Richard Land, Jay Sekulow,

00:25:12.620 these were men that were dispatched by the Bush administration to go down to Alabama and

00:25:17.240 organize the churches there not to come out and defend Roy Moore and to get rid of him

00:25:21.620 because the Bush administration viewed him as a distraction.

00:25:23.760 They didn't want this fight.

00:25:25.100 Don't you think if they had this kill shot, they would have used it?

00:25:28.340 You also want me to believe Mitch McConnell spent $30 million to go after, to win this

00:25:33.480 primary, and all he had to do was walk to the Gadsden County Mall and just start interviewing,

00:25:38.060 you know, the food court workers and the floodgates opened.

00:25:41.700 Maybe that's all true.

00:25:43.760 Maybe it is.

00:25:44.640 But I just think before we take a man's life and destroy it, before we take his family and

00:25:49.560 destroy it, I just think we ought to make damn sure that it is.

00:25:54.160 So, Steve, this is exactly where I'm at.

00:25:56.660 I mean, I find myself in the most uncomfortable position because when it comes to Bill, I feel

00:26:06.400 the same way you do with Roy.

00:26:08.280 Look, I don't know.

00:26:10.560 Nobody knows what really happened in somebody's personal life.

00:26:14.620 I have no idea.

00:26:16.200 I can just tell you what I do know and what I do feel.

00:26:21.840 But if it turns out that it's, you know, the opposite, I'm going to feel horrible.

00:26:27.460 I mean, I question myself on this all the time, and it's uncomfortable.

00:26:33.280 At the same time, we're on the air every day with all of these allegations, and I have yet

00:26:40.160 to call for somebody to be fired or to be destroyed because I don't know.

00:26:47.340 I mean, I can tell you that Harvey Weinstein looks really good.

00:26:52.040 When you've got 300 people, that looks really bad.

00:26:56.640 But I can't tell you for sure.

00:26:58.660 I can tell you that I wouldn't want my kids around him.

00:27:01.340 I wouldn't want to do business with him, you know, but the rest of that needs to have,

00:27:07.180 you know, some system, you know, like our judicial system, to prove that they're guilty.

00:27:19.140 And we're sitting here on the air judging people and telling people what to believe.

00:27:25.160 I don't know what to believe.

00:27:26.380 That's, pardon me, the interruption, by the way, I'm glad you brought up Harvey Weinstein,

00:27:31.500 because again, we're not talking even about a predator, or we're not even talking about

00:27:36.800 a womanizer, you know, like Matt Damon and George Clooney came out later and said, well,

00:27:40.360 we knew he was a womanizer.

00:27:41.520 Well, frankly, it's not a big leap from womanizer in Hollywood to a guy that uses his power leverage

00:27:46.200 to do more womanizing.

00:27:47.600 I mean, that's just a, that's like adding a predicate, an extra predicate to a sentence

00:27:51.440 when you're diagramming it.

00:27:52.620 Here you're telling me, you're telling me that a guy that married a single mom at a

00:27:56.860 Bible study, adopted her daughter, has been married to him for 33 years, and has no other

00:28:03.860 evidence.

00:28:04.280 There's no other mischief.

00:28:05.440 There's no other crimes.

00:28:06.360 You know, look with Bill Clinton, you had systemic immorality that you could see was the

00:28:12.000 sexual predator aspect.

00:28:13.180 And it went on for decades, well into his presidency.

00:28:16.640 How many people, Glenn, you're a smart man.

00:28:18.700 You're a man of reason.

00:28:19.960 How many people act this way, have these sorts of urges that are almost uncontrollable and

00:28:24.500 so wicked and destructive.

00:28:25.860 They act on them for a brief period of time, and then they totally go away, and then they

00:28:30.160 never, ever come up again, and they marry, and they have the same wife and the same kids

00:28:33.820 for 33 years, and they're not even accused of a bench warrant for not paying a parking

00:28:37.800 ticket.

00:28:38.400 Okay, so how many times has that happened?

00:28:40.080 So here is the only thing that keeps coming to my mind, is I do know people who are very

00:28:47.620 religious, who are legalistic, who will look at the letter of the law.

00:28:53.620 It's why when he says, I never bought anyone a drink under 18, he's crystal clear on that.

00:29:01.340 I never did this with somebody who was, you know, 14 or 15.

00:29:06.420 16, well, yeah.

00:29:07.940 I mean, he is the letter of the law, so I don't have a hard time believing that he was

00:29:17.740 dating 16, 17, and 18-year-olds, which I find distasteful, but not illegal.

00:29:23.640 I do have a hard time believing the rape or the 14-year-old.

00:29:30.060 It doesn't, I could be swayed off of that easily, I have no idea, but I think it's because

00:29:39.280 he's a legalistic, moral guy.

00:29:42.420 He has made his sharp black lines, and he leaves it at that.

00:29:48.560 I think that's possible.

00:29:51.960 I think that, I think, I think right now, a lot of things are possible.

00:29:57.160 I think there's only real two outcomes here.

00:29:59.860 Either this guy is the greatest liar, and Glenn, I've been a, if you've been a conservative

00:30:04.540 activist in the Republican Party for an hour, you've been lied to by the best, okay?

00:30:08.880 For probably about an hour and 10 minutes.

00:30:10.900 Let alone, let alone 10 years, okay?

00:30:15.060 I've had men your audience knows household names look me in the eye in my own home and

00:30:20.140 lie to me, okay?

00:30:21.000 So, this guy's better than any of them, and that is just something I don't even want to

00:30:28.000 contemplate, and I don't want to contemplate the alternative either, which is, frankly,

00:30:31.760 you know, this is a demonic takedown of a man, unlike anything I've ever seen in politics.

00:30:37.440 I think that's why so many people are sickened by it, because there isn't a middle, we love

00:30:42.300 our middle grounds, we love to find, we love to break in the night before Starfleet Academy

00:30:46.620 and reprogram the Kobayashi Maru we don't like, no-win scenarios, but this one is, this guy

00:30:52.500 is one of the worst sociopaths in modern American politics, or this is one of the most demonic

00:30:57.060 takedowns of a man we've ever witnessed before, and that's not a good conclusion, no matter

00:31:02.180 which one it turns out to be.

00:31:03.380 Talking to Steve Dace, and I think if you're listening to this, you get the sense, and

00:31:07.980 I think this was important, that this is not a partisan Breitbart-level defense of Roy

00:31:13.020 Moore, this is a, I think, a nuanced, thoughtful defense of Moore, and I think it's important

00:31:17.920 to hear that side of it.

00:31:19.500 Steve, you make a lot of really good points on a sort of circumstantial case, but, you know,

00:31:26.400 there are people that have dark things in their history, these things are possible.

00:31:29.280 Were you satisfied by the defense he has presented, including the Sean Hannity interview, his public

00:31:40.520 statements since?

00:31:42.280 I think some of those things have caused me pause that if I were a defender, I don't know

00:31:47.860 that I would be happy with the way he's talked about it since the accusations came out.

00:31:51.320 I have not monitored these things on a regular basis, and the reason why is because I know

00:31:58.040 him, and so I know that he is not a great communicator.

00:32:02.040 He has an odd persona in that normally the man that is the person, the staunch line person

00:32:11.660 that Glenn just described, normally is a powerful orator and a powerful personality.

00:32:16.480 He's actually not that, not that at all.

00:32:19.480 If you go back and watch the one-on-one debate he had with Luther Strange, he's actually pretty

00:32:24.140 homespun.

00:32:25.580 He's not great off the cuff.

00:32:27.640 He wouldn't be a good talk show host, for example.

00:32:30.300 I mean, the reason why he memorized the Constitution, the Declaration of the Independence is because

00:32:34.480 that way he wouldn't have to recall it.

00:32:36.160 All right.

00:32:36.340 So I think for people that are getting their first look at him on a personality basis, I

00:32:42.120 would caution them, just as someone that's been around him a lot in a private setting,

00:32:45.760 not to read too much into that, yay or nay, because that's just not what he's good at.

00:32:50.780 He's never going to, if he got elected, he'd never dazzle you on meet the press or anything

00:32:54.820 of that nature.

00:32:55.720 Have you talked to him personally since?

00:32:58.100 I have.

00:32:59.020 Yeah, as I wrote in my piece, I did not go after him for a reaction because I wanted to

00:33:03.620 examine things without being tainted by a personal relationship.

00:33:07.280 And I didn't write this, but I'll tell you guys this.

00:33:09.120 I frankly wanted to see if he would come to me, and he did, and he did call me a few

00:33:13.160 days ago.

00:33:14.780 And again, if he's lying, it's the greatest liar I've ever encountered.

00:33:19.280 But I was actually more impressed with the wife.

00:33:24.140 You know, one of the things I've seen in my career is I always tell people when I'm vetting

00:33:28.440 candidates or you are, always check the spouse, male or female, always check the spouse.

00:33:33.340 They know.

00:33:33.940 They've seen them when their knickers are down figuratively and literally.

00:33:36.760 And if the wife and kids are not involved, if they're silent, okay, particularly when

00:33:42.160 their man or woman is in battle, that's always a bad, I can't think of a time in my career

00:33:46.060 that has not been a bad sign.

00:33:48.320 And she is in full throat.

00:33:50.640 Tammy Wynette, fire up the stand by your man as defiant as you can possibly yet.

00:33:57.200 So was Hillary.

00:33:59.160 Good question.

00:34:00.000 What, what, why?

00:34:01.000 But here's the difference.

00:34:01.920 That's why I go to look at this period of time.

00:34:05.780 The Clintons had decades of things.

00:34:08.680 Where's the whitewater, Glenn?

00:34:10.200 Where's the Rose Law Firm?

00:34:11.900 Where is all the, so you're telling me, you're telling me he essentially what, he was a sexual

00:34:18.100 predator, a sociopath from 1975 to about 1982 and then just shut it down and went on with

00:34:24.840 the rest of his life.

00:34:25.940 And so, so Steve, will you give me, will you give me this, that it is, it's feasible that

00:34:31.220 he grew up in Alabama, which was different.

00:34:35.260 And it was legal to date a 16, 17 and 18 year old.

00:34:39.860 He was a gentleman with the ladies and, you know, the, the children, I think, but legal.

00:34:48.740 And he didn't see anything wrong with that.

00:34:51.700 He always asked the mom and he was always a gentleman when they wanted to go home, they

00:34:55.640 went home.

00:34:56.160 And the charges of the 14 year old and the rape are wrong.

00:35:00.860 But the 16, 17 and 18 year old is correct.

00:35:04.260 I think I have tried not to get it with alternative theories.

00:35:10.100 In fact, I've tested people with them.

00:35:12.140 30 seconds.

00:35:13.400 But do I think in the South, particularly in that time period, women lined their daughters

00:35:18.060 up with a man that just got out of West Point as early as possible.

00:35:20.880 Do I think that's possible?

00:35:22.000 Yeah, I think it's possible.

00:35:23.260 Okay.

00:35:23.680 Steve Dace.

00:35:24.400 Thank you so much.

00:35:25.200 Appreciate it.

00:35:25.760 A host of the Steve Dace show and it's on CRTV and, and you should read him, follow him

00:35:31.900 at stevedace.com.

00:35:33.120 Um, Casper has outdone themselves again.

00:35:36.580 Tanya and I were one of the first to have the new wave mattress from Casper.

00:35:40.040 Um, they collected three years of data, feedback, foam research, and sleep science in creating

00:35:45.160 the wave.

00:35:46.260 It is patent pending support system that, that mirrors your body's natural curvature.

00:35:51.880 So it allows you to sleep deeper.

00:35:55.120 That's important because your body can't restore itself without a deep, deep sleep.

00:36:00.480 I have a body curvature.

00:36:01.660 It's getting larger and larger.

00:36:02.720 You're on the stomach area.

00:36:03.740 I've noticed.

00:36:04.180 Yeah.

00:36:04.440 The wave doesn't, no, the wave.

00:36:06.400 No, it, it, it, it doesn't, uh, that's not a natural wave.

00:36:10.580 Anyway, like the original, the wave is designed from breathable, breathable foam.

00:36:14.440 So you can sleep cool year round.

00:36:16.420 Uh, it is a complete breakthrough, especially for people who have pain.

00:36:19.660 I love it, but try it out in your own home for a hundred nights.

00:36:22.660 Don't take my word for it.

00:36:24.020 Do your own homework.

00:36:25.360 They will send it to you for free, free shipping, and they will pick it up and return it for

00:36:30.740 free.

00:36:31.300 So you're not out anything.

00:36:32.960 They will refund every penny without a question.

00:36:35.740 Ask all you have to do is try it out for yourself.

00:37:09.660 The Martyr's Oath.

00:37:12.100 We are living at a time of great martyrs, and the world isn't even taking note.

00:37:18.460 CNN started, uh, uh, investigation on slavery in the Middle East, and they were shocked and

00:37:25.140 horrified to find that this is going on.

00:37:26.580 It's been going on for a long, long, long, long, long time, and it's really bad, uh, with

00:37:31.840 ISIS.

00:37:33.580 Johnny Moore, um, has met these people firsthand.

00:37:38.460 We're going to share that next.

00:37:40.580 Glenn Beck.

00:37:48.460 So, how many more hits can Roy Moore, uh, absorb before he drops out of the Senate race?

00:38:00.780 Last night, the RNC withdrew its financial support of Moore's campaign.

00:38:06.540 Also, yesterday, Paul Ryan called for Moore to withdraw from the race, and Mitch McConnell

00:38:11.880 said, if he was elected, Moore would face an immediate ethics committee investigation.

00:38:18.020 Now, I was surprised that the Senate still had one of those, but apparently they do.

00:38:24.020 Moore tweeted that the, quote, fight has just begun, end quote, and that McConnell's

00:38:28.560 days were, uh, uh, were numbered.

00:38:31.420 He used the catchy hashtag, ditch Mitch.

00:38:36.400 Moore's wife, Kayla, has been using Facebook to try to defend her man.

00:38:39.780 She shared her story yesterday, claiming the old Hickory restaurant, where one of the alleged

00:38:44.460 sexual assaults by Roy took place, didn't even exist.

00:38:48.380 A few minutes of research in an old-fashioned establishment called the Town Library, however,

00:38:54.520 confirmed that the restaurant, in fact, did exist.

00:38:58.520 Mrs. Moore also shared, uh, a letter signed by 53 pastors urging people to vote, to vote for

00:39:05.140 Roy.

00:39:05.420 The letter praises Moore for things like his immovable convictions for biblical principles.

00:39:11.460 That's good, right?

00:39:13.800 Eh, not so much.

00:39:15.300 The letter was written in August, and Mrs. Moore's repost left out the date, implying that

00:39:22.180 the endorsement is current.

00:39:24.040 So far, three pastors have said, could you please remove my name from that list?

00:39:28.780 Despite the circus, Moore still leads his Democratic opponent, Doug Jones, by six points.

00:39:35.620 The fact that Moore is still ahead tells us exactly what's wrong with our politics.

00:39:41.140 And it's not that Moore is guilty, yet still in the race.

00:39:45.700 It's because we don't know that he's guilty, for a fact.

00:39:49.820 We believe these women's stories, but we don't know for certain that he did these things.

00:39:55.320 Our problem is a total lack of consistency on the left and the right.

00:40:02.180 Listen to what Jake Tapper said about this on CNN.

00:40:05.780 The accusers of Bill Clinton back in the 90s were never given the credence and treated with

00:40:13.500 the same respect that these women are being treated.

00:40:15.920 And I think that there is something to be said about how society has evolved since then.

00:40:21.660 But in addition, it's hard not to look back at that period and think, you know what?

00:40:25.840 The media treated those women poorly.

00:40:30.380 Did I slip through a wormhole?

00:40:34.740 Is this a parallel universe, or did I just hear a journalist actually speak the truth?

00:40:40.160 Not a surprise.

00:40:41.540 It's Jake Tapper.

00:40:42.480 Was it that hard for someone on the left to admit this?

00:40:46.660 Apparently so.

00:40:48.320 Where's everybody else?

00:40:50.300 In the 1990s, Bill Clinton's accusers described events that had happened within the previous

00:40:55.160 10 to 20 years.

00:40:56.820 Roy Moore's accusers are talking about things that happened 40 years ago.

00:41:01.180 Why then have the Moore allegations received nearly an instant acceptance, even though the

00:41:07.280 allegations are twice as old?

00:41:08.760 Again, I find the Moore accusers believable, and I don't think the Facebook post from his

00:41:16.620 wife is helping, but we have to be consistent on both sides of the aisle.

00:41:22.500 As I said yesterday, the minute the left decides, you know what?

00:41:27.160 Bill Clinton is a predator, and they say it out loud, and they distance themselves from the

00:41:33.620 Clintons, I believe they're serious.

00:41:36.640 But if we don't become consistent, we're lying.

00:41:42.480 We're lying to ourselves.

00:41:44.260 We're lying to each other, and no one will have any credibility.

00:41:47.920 It's Wednesday, November 15th.

00:41:58.780 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:00.720 Johnny Moore, good friend of the program, and the author of the book, The Martyr's Oath, joins

00:42:10.840 us now.

00:42:11.520 He is the guy who provided the inspiration to start the Nazarene Fund, and we welcome him

00:42:19.620 to the program.

00:42:20.280 Hi, Johnny.

00:42:20.700 How are you?

00:42:21.920 Hey, Glenn.

00:42:22.660 I'm good.

00:42:23.360 Good to hear your voice.

00:42:24.040 So, I don't know if you saw this on CNN yesterday, but CNN is starting a series now.

00:42:31.260 They've been doing an investigation for a year, and they found out that slaves are still being

00:42:36.560 sold in the Middle East.

00:42:40.080 They didn't touch on the Christian slaves.

00:42:42.840 They just touched on the slaves in Libya.

00:42:46.140 But I'm hoping that they will find the enormity of the problem soon, that it's not just happening

00:42:55.040 in Libya.

00:42:58.040 Yeah, I know that the situation has changed, but it hasn't improved.

00:43:02.640 You know, ISIS taught these terrorists all around the world in different places new brutality,

00:43:07.980 new techniques, and it persists.

00:43:10.620 It's not what we were seeing, you know, the beheading of Christians on live television.

00:43:15.340 Now it's back in the shadows, but in Nigeria alone, you know, Boko Haram, which pledged

00:43:19.920 its allegiance to ISIS, I mean, they killed more Christians last year than ISIS did in

00:43:23.980 Syria.

00:43:24.440 I mean, this is still a very, very intense, intense situation, not to mention, you know,

00:43:28.620 these communities still need to be rebuilt, you know, and Glenn, I got to tell you, I mean,

00:43:32.440 I was thinking really, really small until I got on your radio program, you know, and because

00:43:36.780 of the Nazarene Fund and your vision and your voice, I mean, a lot of people were helped,

00:43:40.800 but we can't let up now.

00:43:42.120 There's a lot of work that needs to be done.

00:43:43.440 So, Johnny, you went over, and this is kind of what your book is about, you went over with

00:43:47.580 kind of a comfortable Christian attitude, an American Christian attitude, and you met

00:43:54.520 these people who are living, we are seeing first century kind of persecution of Christians.

00:44:03.300 They are now the most persecuted people on earth, and nobody is, nobody's even talking

00:44:08.880 about it, and you saw it firsthand, and it kind of shook you to your core, did it not?

00:44:16.380 No, it changed me.

00:44:17.560 I mean, I totally changed my lifestyle.

00:44:19.660 I changed my job.

00:44:21.080 I changed how I was investing my time.

00:44:23.400 I mean, I could not not have a good answer to this question.

00:44:26.960 You know, what was I doing when this was happening in history?

00:44:29.540 And, you know, with this latest book, The Martyrs' Oath, you know, we went around to 30 different

00:44:34.280 countries, sent research teams everywhere to document the firsthand accounts of persecution,

00:44:38.460 and I was even surprised at what was happening in countries I barely knew anything about.

00:44:42.660 You know, and then, Glenn, we have allies like Turkey.

00:44:45.620 You know, Turkey is a country where last year, you know, the Directorate of Religious Affairs

00:44:50.520 appointed an imam to the Hagia Sophia.

00:44:53.320 The Hagia Sophia was for a thousand years the most important church in Christianity, and

00:44:58.280 it has been a museum since the fall of the Ottoman Empire, but last year, Turkey, you

00:45:02.660 know, under the nose of the whole world, appointed an imam to supervise one of history's most famous

00:45:08.500 Christian churches.

00:45:09.220 They also confiscated 50 Christian holy sites, and so it's not just about the imprisonment

00:45:13.980 and beheading and the torture and all these things, you know, the thousands of people

00:45:17.380 that are affected by that.

00:45:18.380 Countries like North Korea where 70,000 Christians are in prison.

00:45:21.160 You know, it's also this subtle discrimination and prioritization and supremacy of Islam that's

00:45:27.380 erupting, you know, all around the world, and we have to keep pressure on people.

00:45:31.680 We have to keep telling these stories, and we've got to help them, too.

00:45:33.940 Tell me the stories that you found in your research.

00:45:39.440 Well, one that I can't get out of my head.

00:45:42.040 I mean, I met a family that had fled Syria, you know, when I was in a neighboring country.

00:45:47.580 You know, they were sitting across the table from me.

00:45:49.560 They had converted to Christianity, and because of it, their jihadist relatives in Syria were

00:45:56.340 threatening their lives.

00:45:57.140 They sent them a letter, and the letter literally said, we know where you are, we're going to

00:46:02.600 come find you, and we're going to crucify you like you're Jesus.

00:46:07.380 And, you know, my jaw was on the floor already, but then they told me what they did.

00:46:11.960 They said, we wrote him back.

00:46:14.020 They wrote the jihadist relative back, and the letter they said, said, please, please

00:46:20.020 come find us.

00:46:21.240 You know, we're ready to die for our Jesus, but please don't crucify us.

00:46:26.620 We're not worthy to die the same death.

00:46:29.780 And I just couldn't, I just didn't know a faith like that.

00:46:33.220 I mean, I see it in the Bible, right?

00:46:34.520 But I don't see it in our real world, and, you know, I found that as much as we've helped

00:46:39.300 these people, and you know this more than anyone, Glenn, I mean, you know, this audience

00:46:42.900 saved the lives of thousands and thousands and thousands of Christians, but as much as

00:46:47.320 we try to help these people, I find that they help us.

00:46:50.400 They show us what's really important.

00:46:52.260 You know, they show us how to live because of their willingness to die.

00:46:55.620 So what causes that, or what have we lost, Johnny, to where?

00:47:02.240 Because I can't imagine, I don't know a single Christian that I think would sit down with

00:47:09.760 the family and say, let's write them back and say, please, just don't crucify us like

00:47:14.980 our Lord.

00:47:15.400 Just you can crucify us upside down, but we're willing to do that.

00:47:19.480 But just don't put us in his category.

00:47:22.580 I don't know a single person here in the United States that could sit down with a family and

00:47:29.060 really say that.

00:47:30.840 What happened to us?

00:47:34.420 Where's the disconnect?

00:47:36.500 You know, and I don't know that I could say it, and it causes me to look inside of my own

00:47:40.060 heart.

00:47:40.500 I mean, you know, in my reading of the Bible, I mean, you see a lot of this, right?

00:47:45.320 I mean, the New Testament is all about persecuted people.

00:47:47.620 They're either being persecuted, or they're helping those who are being persecuted.

00:47:53.580 And I'm just convinced that we cannot have a real faith life unless we're close to people

00:47:59.920 whose faith costs them something.

00:48:01.840 And this is the most subtle thing, because it gets at our character, and we don't even

00:48:06.100 know it's getting at us.

00:48:07.740 You know, but it changes us, and it changes us in profound ways.

00:48:10.640 We don't care about truth anymore, because truth doesn't cost us anything.

00:48:13.580 We don't forgive our enemies.

00:48:14.900 You know, we don't forgive our political opponents, much less our enemies, you know,

00:48:18.320 because, you know, we don't have to.

00:48:20.240 And yet the Coptic church, you know, which has endured terrible persecution in the last

00:48:24.320 six months, multiple suicide bombings, a bus of children massacred, you know, and yet

00:48:30.000 the Coptic pastors all across Egypt publicly said that they forgive the terrorists that killed

00:48:35.420 them.

00:48:36.360 I mean, it's like crazy until you read the Bible, and then it's like ever-present.

00:48:41.480 You know, there's a role for government.

00:48:42.740 You know, it's to keep nations secure, and there's a role for the church and for people

00:48:46.800 of faith, and that is by our compassion, by our service, by our testimony, we cause

00:48:53.600 less problems in the world for governments to solve.

00:48:56.780 You know, we work on hearts.

00:48:58.600 They work on security.

00:48:59.800 And our persecuted brothers and sisters, I mean, they just have a faith we need to learn

00:49:03.800 from.

00:49:04.300 You know, Boko Haram went after this mom that we interviewed, and they were trying to behead

00:49:07.800 her after they beheaded her husband and her children, and they were demanding that she

00:49:11.480 say, Allahu Akbar.

00:49:12.860 They were trying to convert her on the spot, probably to make her one of their wives.

00:49:16.940 And you know what she did, Glenn?

00:49:17.960 She said to us, with a raspy voice, because she nearly died, she said, every time they

00:49:24.260 demanded that I say, Allahu Akbar, I looked back over my shoulder at them, and I screamed,

00:49:30.220 Jesus.

00:49:31.020 She was fearless.

00:49:32.320 You know, she has a real faith.

00:49:34.180 And I think a lot of us sort of, you know, we have a fake faith sometimes.

00:49:39.220 Wow.

00:49:42.220 I will say, though, my iPhone X has not been delivered yet.

00:49:44.900 I mean, it's been delayed, and I'm very upset about it.

00:49:47.200 He's been talking about it all day.

00:49:49.880 So, Johnny, you know, I can't even get to the beheading part and see that kind of faith.

00:49:58.640 I am struggling now with faith, not my faith, but with religion and religionists, that we

00:50:16.000 don't believe in Jesus enough to turn the other cheek.

00:50:21.820 We don't believe in the message of the gospel, which is what Gandhi and Bonhoeffer and Martin

00:50:30.340 Luther King lived.

00:50:32.100 We are escalating the trouble by not being messengers of peace.

00:50:39.840 And it strikes me that we don't really believe it.

00:50:45.060 We don't really believe that it works.

00:50:47.240 When push comes to shove, no, it's the sword.

00:50:50.000 It's not the knee.

00:50:51.820 Yeah, and it says something about us in a deep and profound place, and the only way

00:50:59.840 I know how to change is to meet those people who don't have what we have.

00:51:04.520 They don't have our religious freedom.

00:51:06.000 They don't have our wealth and our prosperity.

00:51:07.720 They don't have our security.

00:51:09.360 They don't have any of these other things, but what they do have is their faith, and their

00:51:14.120 faith is all that they need.

00:51:15.680 And this is why, you know, for 2,000 years, we've told these stories.

00:51:20.520 In early America, every American home had a Bible, a copy of Pilgrim's Progress, and

00:51:26.900 they had Fox's Book of Martyrs.

00:51:29.540 And there's no surprise that there was something unique about the Judeo-Christian foundation

00:51:35.680 of this country, because we were close to people whose faith meant something to them.

00:51:40.960 They expected they would have to sacrifice their lives, their money, their reputation,

00:51:45.940 something.

00:51:46.440 They would lose something if they were faithful.

00:51:48.600 And that is what this book is, The Martyr's Oath.

00:51:52.340 It is a new version of Fox's Book of Martyrs, and Johnny Moore is its author.

00:51:59.980 Thank you, Johnny.

00:52:00.760 God bless you.

00:52:02.260 Thank you, Glenn.

00:52:02.880 You bet.

00:52:03.140 No word if I am mentioned in there for my iPhone delivery issue, but...

00:52:13.400 I don't thank you.

00:52:14.620 The book is The Martyr's Oath by Johnny Moore, at Johnny M on Twitter, and Martyrsoath.com

00:52:20.620 is the book.

00:52:21.320 That is an incredible...

00:52:22.520 I mean, you just feel so pathetic.

00:52:26.420 You do.

00:52:26.700 If I could personalize it and be selfish and talk about it and make it about myself, you

00:52:30.600 feel so pathetic hearing those stories, because you realize how little you sacrifice, how...

00:52:35.820 When you want to take a stand on Twitter, you're like, I don't know if I should post this.

00:52:39.560 I don't know if I should post this message about faith, because someone might hammer me.

00:52:44.440 They might troll me.

00:52:45.340 I was at a doctor's office yesterday, and the doctor had Christian music on, and we started

00:52:51.580 to talk, and I said...

00:52:53.860 And I didn't even notice the music.

00:52:55.520 And I said, because I wanted to talk to him about Corinthians, something I found in Corinthians,

00:53:01.360 I said, you're Christian, right?

00:53:04.260 You're religious?

00:53:04.880 And he said, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:53:06.360 So anyway, we started talking, and he said, you would not believe the number of people

00:53:10.160 that...

00:53:12.520 Doctors that have come into my office and said, you should turn off this music.

00:53:18.220 This is going to offend people.

00:53:20.280 And he said, I just don't want to live that way.

00:53:22.140 I mean, if you're really offended, go find yourself another doctor.

00:53:24.540 It's not like I'm preaching.

00:53:25.880 I'm in this office all day.

00:53:28.240 It's what I want to listen to.

00:53:29.800 If you are offended by a Christian message, then I mean, I don't know if I want to work

00:53:36.280 on you anyway.

00:53:38.720 It happens occasionally down here in Texas in that you go into restaurants, and there'll

00:53:42.620 be, you know, the music will be like Christian music or religious music.

00:53:47.720 And it, as someone who grew up in the Northeast and who's lived in the Northeast most of my

00:53:52.980 life, it is surprising.

00:53:55.280 You notice it.

00:53:55.940 It's refreshing.

00:53:57.060 But that's exactly how I feel about it.

00:53:58.820 It's refreshing.

00:53:59.720 Yeah.

00:53:59.860 You know, if I go into a Middle Eastern restaurant and they're playing Islamic music, I'm not going

00:54:04.360 to be shocked about it, right?

00:54:05.620 Right.

00:54:05.900 But it's some it's we are so sensitive and so worried about offending everybody.

00:54:10.260 Stop it.

00:54:10.700 And the last this is the last place you should be worried about.

00:54:13.260 Yes.

00:54:13.500 When emergencies happen, our thoughts and prayers go to those affected.

00:54:18.080 But do we take action to make sure that we don't find ourselves in a similar situation?

00:54:23.420 When we plan for emergencies, we are in control of the effect.

00:54:29.080 The emergency, the emergency has on each of us.

00:54:32.720 It's not complicated to prepare, especially if you are looking for food supply.

00:54:37.340 I remember my first food supply.

00:54:39.220 We had MREs.

00:54:40.440 Oh, my gosh.

00:54:41.180 I remember telling Tonya, there is no way I'm going to eat this stuff.

00:54:44.720 I mean, it has to be nuclear winter outside before I eat this stuff.

00:54:50.240 And so we had a few boxes of MREs, which we don't have anymore because we found my Patriot

00:54:57.100 supply.

00:54:58.100 This is really good food that some might say that I have opened up and eaten when my wife

00:55:05.120 wasn't around.

00:55:05.840 So it was really yummy food and I only had to add water.

00:55:09.680 I'm just saying some would say that I would say that's untrue because I want to make sure

00:55:13.800 we have an emergency supply for real emergencies.

00:55:16.860 You can start right now with 102 servings of really good food for only $99, less than a dollar

00:55:45.040 Glenn Beck.

00:55:56.720 Glenn Beck.

00:55:59.460 Interesting little intersection of feelings, emotions and principles happening on Twitter

00:56:07.180 as they sometimes do.

00:56:08.620 Kim tweets, hey Stu, shut the F up about the iPhone 10.

00:56:15.440 I'm trying to listen about Christian martyrs.

00:56:19.140 And I will say she did not.

00:56:20.800 She actually spelled out the F word in her attempt to get closer to Christianity on the

00:56:25.880 radio.

00:56:28.260 It's an interesting approach.

00:56:30.120 I grant you.

00:56:31.100 If that's not America.

00:56:33.900 That is a microcosm of this country.

00:56:36.260 It is what's happening to us right now.

00:56:39.600 Stab that guy and get him to shut up.

00:56:42.920 I'm trying to get close to the Lord.

00:56:44.900 Can you imagine the thought process you go through when you're hearing this?

00:56:51.220 Here's this story about all these people who are doing amazing things.

00:56:55.120 The people who are like, I got a letter from a terrorist.

00:56:58.140 And look, they took the time to write it.

00:56:59.760 So I'm going to respond and say, hey, come on over whenever you want.

00:57:03.460 If you need to kill us, this is our address.

00:57:05.220 And I know you know it because you sent us this mail.

00:57:07.640 But we want to make sure you know we're here.

00:57:09.180 This isn't an empty house.

00:57:10.360 Come on over.

00:57:11.960 You're hearing that story.

00:57:13.660 Then you get a three second reprieve from all these people being murdered in the Middle

00:57:18.520 East from a dumb iPhone joke.

00:57:20.360 And your response is to go to such anger about your love for Christianity that you scream

00:57:26.780 the F word at a stranger.

00:57:28.580 We are.

00:57:29.220 We are on the edge.

00:57:31.240 We're just on the edge.

00:57:33.080 Have you seen Ryan Hamilton, his special on Netflix?

00:57:37.000 No.

00:57:37.580 I don't think I have.

00:57:38.620 I'm going to find it.

00:57:39.780 You know, we have to play a piece of it because he's from Idaho and he's living in New York.

00:57:45.260 I think I have seen.

00:57:46.080 Oh, my gosh.

00:57:46.780 And he's in Idaho.

00:57:48.160 He lives in New York.

00:57:49.100 And he just doesn't look at things the same the same way.

00:57:53.920 And it is exactly that.

00:57:56.880 Exactly that.

00:57:57.620 Back in just a second.

00:58:06.380 Glenn back.

00:58:09.780 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:58:20.520 Hello, America.

00:58:21.780 So glad you're here.

00:58:23.660 Could we just spend a few minutes personally on on something?

00:58:28.240 Just a personal note.

00:58:29.420 As you if you are a longtime fan of mine, you may you may know the.

00:58:42.080 Well, if you've watched me over the last year, I think I've had a lot of people say.

00:58:48.500 You're you're you're not happy.

00:58:54.880 I know.

00:58:56.080 No, I'm I'm I'm really not.

00:58:58.100 I'm really not.

00:58:58.800 But for multiple reasons, and this has been really long, tough five years for me for a myriad of reasons.

00:59:10.780 And some things have happened in my personal life that have made getting up every morning and do this really difficult.

00:59:22.400 And.

00:59:23.660 And.

00:59:25.140 And my perspective has changed and I have been struggling.

00:59:29.040 I'm not a businessman and I have been struggling for a very long time with trying to have a vision of something and then having other people executed.

00:59:41.600 And me doing, you know, four hours of broadcast a day doesn't leave you a lot of time to run a company.

00:59:50.180 And so I have tried not to.

00:59:53.120 And about eight months ago, I decided.

00:59:56.480 You know, there's there's it's just not going to work unless it's my vision all the time and I'm in charge.

01:00:04.340 Uh, and so about eight months ago, I started, um, really kind of learning, uh, my own business and figuring out where everything is.

01:00:13.580 And about August, I, I brought our CFO in.

01:00:16.820 I said, OK, I think somebody's embezzling because there's no I'm looking at these numbers and there's no way we're making this crap for that amount of money.

01:00:23.360 And I, I tracked it all down every time.

01:00:26.360 And I'm like, wow, no, we're just really bad at it.

01:00:29.360 Um, and, uh, so around August, we, we made some changes in the programming and I made changes, uh, here, uh, and then ran into some, uh, headwinds with me.

01:00:43.900 And, uh, I went on vacation.

01:00:48.760 When was that?

01:00:49.820 Uh, September.

01:00:51.860 And, uh, I spent the week with my family up in the woods and, uh, we just, we just talked.

01:00:59.360 Uh, and what's important and what are we going to do?

01:01:04.420 And, uh, I had some people that wanted to buy, uh, everything and, uh, and I didn't, and my contract was coming to an end for radio.

01:01:16.540 Uh, my contract ends in on January 1st and, um, uh, I didn't, I hadn't renewed, uh, my contract.

01:01:25.700 And I sat back and made a list of all the things that I wanted to do and didn't want to do, uh, and what was important to me.

01:01:37.400 And then I flew in a couple of, um, good friends of mine, uh, you know, billionaire businessmen and said, it just doesn't, it, it, it's just, it, it can't be this hard.

01:01:51.060 And here's what my gut says.

01:01:53.320 And, and, uh, they said, well, you're, you're, you're, you're gut, your gut's right.

01:01:59.260 So, so I had to decide that week, whether I was going to, uh, retire and go to the woods or if I was going to, uh, uh, really make changes, uh, in my life on, in a myriad of, of areas.

01:02:18.180 Today, I can, uh, I can announce a press release was just, um, uh, was just sent out.

01:02:27.540 Premier Radio Networks and then, and Mercury Radio Arts, Glenn Beck's multimedia production company has announced today a renewed and extended agreement to syndicate the Glenn Beck program.

01:02:36.620 Um, uh, as the premier celebrates the 15th anniversary of the Glenn Beck program in national syndication this year, its audience of millions continues to grow across radio, digital, and podcasting platforms.

01:02:50.160 Um, the program has experienced year over year audience gains in markets, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Dallas, Houston, Minneapolis, Denver, Pittsburgh, Kansas city, Columbus, Norfolk, uh, and Memphis in, uh, key demographics.

01:03:04.820 Um, I've just signed another five year, uh, contract to do this radio program.

01:03:11.680 And, uh, I made a commitment, uh, to myself in, uh, September that, uh, I was only going to do the things that I am good at and that my company is only going to do the things that we are good at.

01:03:27.340 And we're not good at, and we're not good at an awful lot.

01:03:30.460 Um, but we are going to, um, make some, uh, changes, you know, that doesn't mean employees or anything else.

01:03:40.100 It, it means, uh, everything that I have already told the employees that we're doing, we're making, uh, changes and, uh, it is a new era for me in, uh, January, 2018.

01:03:53.440 Um, um, I have, um, spent a lot of time this fall thinking about, uh, what matters most and what matters most is my family, my children.

01:04:12.280 Um, I don't know how to teach my children.

01:04:17.820 I don't know how to teach my children.

01:04:19.760 I don't know how to be, um, the man that I want to be in this society.

01:04:26.720 I don't know how to teach my son, how to be the man he wants to be in this society.

01:04:31.400 I, I, I, I'm doing my best, but there is no outpost for honor and integrity and, and men being men.

01:04:46.380 There is no place that is an outpost that is trying to teach things that I don't even know.

01:04:54.440 I don't know the most valuable thing I could teach my children right now is to be open-minded and to not, to be intellectually humble, to expect that change is going to be the biggest concept, uh, constant in their entire life.

01:05:17.320 I don't know anyone who is teaching about the future and the things that we have coming our way.

01:05:30.260 I want to thank you for the last 15 years.

01:05:34.040 Um, they have been remarkable.

01:05:35.340 And as Stu said to me earlier, I can't believe we've lasted this long.

01:05:40.500 I would have never guessed it.

01:05:42.300 I would have never guessed it.

01:05:43.680 We are the least likely to be successful.

01:05:47.320 And we're only successful because of you.

01:05:50.340 And I mean that sincerely.

01:05:52.760 Um, I can't thank you enough for putting up with, uh, me and putting up with my, um, own personal journey.

01:06:05.720 Uh, everybody else seems to have their crap together.

01:06:10.120 Uh, I am, I am, I'm not one of them.

01:06:13.220 Uh, I, I have times when my crap is together and I have just experienced a, a five-year period where

01:06:20.960 for the life of me, I have not been able to get a handle on, on life.

01:06:28.320 I thank God that I have a good wife by my side and children who I am closer to than ever before.

01:06:36.280 Now let's go get to work.

01:06:39.740 So business insider was, uh, quoting, uh, Jim Rogers.

01:06:57.180 He is a, um, uh, he's a huge, um, investor and, uh, everybody listens to his advice.

01:07:04.840 And he said, everybody should have coins, physical coins as an insurance policy, as an emergency,

01:07:10.860 if nothing else.

01:07:11.900 This is the biggest misunderstanding.

01:07:13.660 I think of gold, he said, I hope you, you never need them, but you have to start by owning

01:07:18.580 gold coins, coins that are recognized all over the world.

01:07:22.720 People look at gold as an investment.

01:07:26.400 And in today's world where everything is upside down and the market is just growing and growing

01:07:31.700 and growing, everybody, every investor will tell you, Oh, you got to be in the market.

01:07:35.660 Okay.

01:07:36.200 Be in the market.

01:07:36.900 But where is your, your hedge, where is, where is, uh, that thing that just is stable and

01:07:45.520 is never going away.

01:07:48.600 That thing is gold.

01:07:50.620 And what he's saying is everyone should have it.

01:07:54.020 And I'm quoting as insurance.

01:07:56.840 What does that mean?

01:07:58.840 Insurance that the world has gone insane insurance that what the central banks are doing that has

01:08:05.980 never been done successfully ever in history, that this time it is not different than all

01:08:12.600 of the thousands of times it's been tried throughout history.

01:08:16.800 You need insurance for that.

01:08:18.920 That's why I have gold line gold line.

01:08:21.300 The only place I buy gold.

01:08:22.680 I trust them.

01:08:23.640 I believe in them.

01:08:32.840 They want you to read their risk information.

01:09:10.000 Glenn Beck.

01:09:20.380 Glenn Beck.

01:09:21.480 So Stu got a tweet.

01:09:23.520 We were talking to Johnny Moore about his book, The Martyr's Oath, where he's talking

01:09:27.540 about these amazing Christians who are saying, you know, to the terrorist, uh, go ahead and

01:09:32.060 behead me.

01:09:32.620 I won't say Allah Akbar.

01:09:34.380 Uh, these just, just heroes.

01:09:36.540 And a woman tweets him and says, she says, uh, I, uh, let's see, I'm pulling it back up

01:09:45.960 here.

01:09:46.420 Shut the F up about the iPhone 10 trying to listen about Christian martyrs.

01:09:51.940 Right.

01:09:53.040 So he, cause he butts in and makes a joke about the iPhone 10, uh, you know, and his big concern.

01:09:57.940 And, uh, I just, I found the, the, the side by side of screaming on Twitter, the F word

01:10:05.220 fully spelled out, uh, uh, uh, to a stranger while asking for deeper coverage of the, the

01:10:12.360 perils of Christianity in the Middle East is a little strange side.

01:10:15.580 I thought it was a strange side by side.

01:10:16.960 So I saw a comedy special on Netflix that you have to watch with your family.

01:10:21.700 It is hysterical, especially if you've ever even been to New York, it's called Ryan

01:10:26.980 Hamilton and it's, it's happy face.

01:10:30.520 Uh, and he's a standup comedian.

01:10:33.200 He'll remind you a lot of Seinfeld.

01:10:34.960 That is very best.

01:10:36.620 Um, but, uh, he is a guy who grew up in a town of about 400 people in Idaho and he, he

01:10:45.820 moved to hell's kitchen.

01:10:47.640 So he's a little of a fish out of water a little bit.

01:10:52.740 And he has this Idaho mentality in New York city.

01:10:57.620 And he talks about, uh, you know, how he just doesn't understand the culture of New

01:11:02.840 York city.

01:11:03.480 For instance, like when he, uh, ran into a drug dealer and saw a, a, a drug dealer across

01:11:10.120 the street, I never get offered drugs.

01:11:12.680 I know I have that look about me, but, uh, I was standing on the street corner.

01:11:17.260 There's this guy on the other side of the street and he gives me one of these head nods,

01:11:20.680 you know, where I'm from.

01:11:23.160 That means, how's your crop doing?

01:11:29.880 And I'm a friendly guy.

01:11:31.480 So I gave him one back.

01:11:32.580 I said, my crops are fine.

01:11:34.420 And he walked over and he flashed me this handful of little white pills and he said,

01:11:44.260 Hey man, you want some of the good stuff.

01:11:46.360 I didn't know what to say.

01:11:47.400 It kind of caught me off guard, right?

01:11:49.140 Here's what Idaho boy was thinking.

01:11:51.320 Don't be rude.

01:11:55.800 That's what went through my head.

01:11:56.840 Don't be rude to a drug dealer.

01:11:59.020 I felt like I was turning down dessert after grandma baked me a big pie, you know?

01:12:02.600 Oh no, thanks.

01:12:03.300 I just had a big batch of ecstasy for lunch.

01:12:05.080 I'm fine.

01:12:09.980 Ryan Hamilton, happy face, special you have to see on Netflix.

01:12:16.060 He is, uh, I think he's my new favorite comedian.

01:12:19.860 I think he's my new favorite.

01:12:20.900 It's a really funny spec.

01:12:21.600 I actually had seen good chunks of that.

01:12:23.480 It's very funny.

01:12:23.860 Gosh, it's funny.

01:12:24.660 Start to finish.

01:12:25.280 Uh, so I was interested in, in this, uh, Roy Moore thing with the legal letter they sent.

01:12:34.300 Oh, is this the one that looks like it was almost a mad lib?

01:12:38.380 Yeah, kind of.

01:12:39.780 It's like, I don't know if somebody redlined it and they were blind or what happened.

01:12:43.760 Yeah, it doesn't, it doesn't make sense in the language we speak very often.

01:12:50.000 Here's some, uh, David French had some excerpts from it.

01:12:52.980 Uh, your client as an entity has also carelessly and perhaps allowed general slander and libel

01:13:00.560 to the reputation of my clients by seeking out and or reporting from those who did individuals

01:13:07.160 who falsely portray the reputation of Roy Moore in Northeast Alabama.

01:13:12.180 Uh, just, it's a jumble, but okay, clunky, just clunky, clunky, goes on your client's

01:13:19.200 organization.

01:13:19.920 He's, this is from Roy Moore's attorneys to media organizations.

01:13:22.340 Your client's organization has made and or supported defaming statements.

01:13:27.700 This is due to the careless and or intentionally refused to advance the truth regarding our clients.

01:13:35.000 Wait, wait, this is due to the careless and or intentionally refused to advance the truth

01:13:42.120 regarding our clients.

01:13:43.280 Like, it's like they wrote two sentences and then corrected them.

01:13:45.900 It is like a blind man was redlining the, the, the, uh, the lawsuit.

01:13:52.700 Right.

01:13:53.500 You know, you always get redline stuff back from your attorney and they're like, I redlined

01:13:56.900 that.

01:13:57.220 I want to change a few things.

01:13:58.760 It's like somebody just arbitrarily just went, I'm going to redline this.

01:14:02.920 It is.

01:14:04.340 It is.

01:14:04.740 And there's like different tenses throughout.

01:14:07.420 Um, we also believe that your client by and through its agents have damaged our clients

01:14:13.300 by being careless in how they handle headlines and report the contextual of the allegations.

01:14:21.120 Like the context.

01:14:23.620 Maybe they merged two documents.

01:14:25.540 Yeah.

01:14:25.660 It kind of feels that way.

01:14:26.400 Um, this is another one, meaning your client has used terms in reports maliciously or carelessly,

01:14:33.560 which has falsely portraying our clients now, which has falsely portrayed our clients, right?

01:14:42.140 Which is falsely portraying our clients.

01:14:45.480 Um, I mean, it goes on and on and on.

01:14:48.720 It's just, it's very strange coming from an attorney to make all these mistakes.

01:14:54.620 I guess maybe they rushed it.

01:14:56.080 Yeah.

01:14:56.120 Coming from a DA, coming from a DA, his firm is representing him that way.

01:15:03.240 It's, it's, it, it is a little, uh, a little surprising.

01:15:07.980 Yeah.

01:15:08.160 It's not Roy's fault, I guess.

01:15:09.420 It's just a very, they want to change firms.

01:15:16.560 Glenn back.

01:15:21.900 For what?

01:15:22.600 Eight years now, we've been talking about Liberty safe.

01:15:24.420 So the best safes on the market, you know, that probably by now, uh, what a great time

01:15:37.840 And also it benefits you if it's in your home, they have a 12 months interest free financing.

01:16:26.780 Love courage.

01:16:29.700 True.

01:16:30.860 Glenn back yesterday on the radio.

01:16:33.100 People heard this.

01:16:34.480 This is not a military takeover.

01:16:36.340 I repeat, this is not a military takeover.

01:16:41.220 That's what the Zimbabwe defense forces announced yesterday when their military vehicles and more

01:16:46.400 than a hundred troops crowded the Capitol.

01:16:48.660 And at least three explosions were set off.

01:16:52.120 Robert Mugabe's army explained that they were only targeting criminals around Mugabe who are

01:16:57.760 committing crimes that are causing social and economic suffering in the country.

01:17:01.420 And they're just trying to bring justice.

01:17:04.360 Uh, yeah, probably a military takeover.

01:17:08.620 The turmoil within Mugabe's army comes after the 93 year old dictator, who I thought was

01:17:14.820 dead long ago.

01:17:16.040 Uh, many people wish he were fired his deputy and longtime ally.

01:17:21.340 This happened last week.

01:17:22.700 That guy had the military support.

01:17:25.200 The deputy was next in line to run the country in the event, and it's never going to happen

01:17:31.380 of Mugabe's death.

01:17:34.560 When he was swiftly dismissed, Mugabe, uh, appointed his wife to that role instead.

01:17:41.960 Hmm.

01:17:43.440 Now that usually is a big no, no, uh, you know, within unstable dictatorships.

01:17:48.620 It's kind of like dictatorship one-on-one.

01:17:50.520 You don't willy nilly appoint your wife to the next highest position at the last minute

01:17:54.360 and screw your friends over and don't expect some tanks to be rolling your way for 37 years.

01:18:00.300 Mugabe has ruled supreme without a whisper of a military coup, but it looks like that's

01:18:06.440 about to change.

01:18:07.660 Finally, maybe, maybe this will be a good thing.

01:18:12.120 I have to imagine anyone overthrowing Robert Mugabe could do a better job for Zimbabwe, but

01:18:18.120 I could be wrong.

01:18:19.200 There's always a bigger monster.

01:18:22.440 A spokesman for the Zimbabwe Defense Forces announced that as soon as we accomplish our

01:18:26.780 mission, we expect the situation to return to normalcy.

01:18:30.100 The problem is the people of Zimbabwe have never known normalcy.

01:18:35.380 Whatever the Zimbabwe Defense Forces idea of normal is, most likely it is nowhere close

01:18:42.580 to the normal that we know.

01:18:49.200 We were talking about a TED Talk, I don't know, about a month ago that was a black man

01:19:03.840 goes undercover in the alt-right.

01:19:05.340 And his name is Theo E.J.

01:19:08.720 Wilson.

01:19:09.720 And we had him on, I don't know, a couple of weeks ago and wanted to continue the conversation

01:19:16.000 because it was an uncomfortable conversation.

01:19:18.740 Not that it was unpleasant.

01:19:19.980 It was just not an easy conversation because we're a million miles away from each other

01:19:23.800 in some areas.

01:19:24.920 But we need to start listening to each other and learning from each other and building bridges

01:19:31.760 towards each other.

01:19:33.340 And I really firmly believe if you haven't been out of your comfort zone in the last seven

01:19:38.860 days, you're not growing.

01:19:41.160 You have to be put into uncomfortable situations.

01:19:44.800 You look for them.

01:19:45.960 So we wanted to have Theo back and continue our conversation.

01:19:52.240 Hello, sir.

01:19:52.660 How are you?

01:19:53.900 Hey, how are you doing today, Glenn?

01:19:55.420 Good.

01:19:56.140 So I wanted to start here.

01:19:57.920 I wanted to see if we could spend just 10 minutes and just try to find any common ground

01:20:03.120 on some things that are happening today.

01:20:06.600 For instance, this new thing, which I think is a good thing overall, of outing the sexual

01:20:19.460 predators, is a little frightening because it could easily get out of control because

01:20:26.160 we are not asking really for evidence.

01:20:29.480 It's only an accuser stand up.

01:20:31.940 They're reported in the press and in the case of the Amazon head, fired, no questions asked.

01:20:40.080 And it's happening to both the left and the right.

01:20:43.180 And I don't know how we are going to navigate in a world where there is no due process.

01:20:53.320 Correct.

01:20:53.920 It's a simple situation where we are looking at a backlash of a subculture, or should I

01:21:04.340 say an undercurrent in regular culture, where we don't contemplate how our actions as men

01:21:14.440 and the power games that we play have affected women for such a long time.

01:21:20.460 We have been the ones on their necks silently, and this has been status quo.

01:21:28.640 The power that we hold as men tends to be a power that we do not question until something

01:21:36.900 like this goes on.

01:21:38.680 I believe that there will have to be a due process at some point in time because that's

01:21:46.120 how we've set up our legal system.

01:21:47.880 There's no way around this.

01:21:49.280 But I don't know what to make of it at this point.

01:21:53.420 I was talking to a friend yesterday, and I was saying to her, you know, this is something

01:21:59.540 that seems like it's a manifestation of something that has been brewing and stirring for quite

01:22:07.820 some time.

01:22:08.820 Yes.

01:22:09.100 Where it will end, I don't know.

01:22:10.880 I just know that we often don't realize the kind of fear that we put into women because

01:22:17.720 of how we operate.

01:22:19.880 And, you know, anybody who works at a domestic violence shelter will tell you the number one

01:22:23.680 threat to a woman's life is a man.

01:22:26.540 So could this turn into a witch hunt?

01:22:29.520 Yeah.

01:22:30.180 Have women felt witch hunted for quite some time?

01:22:32.520 Yeah.

01:22:32.780 So is there justice in this that remains to be seen that that fully remains to be seen?

01:22:41.280 This is this is a new territory, man.

01:22:43.040 So, Theo, do we are we a collective or are we individuals?

01:22:47.980 Because, you know, I will agree with you that, you know, we don't necessarily see this this

01:22:56.720 plight going on.

01:22:57.700 We don't see the the the struggle, I guess, that some women are having.

01:23:04.940 But also, I will tell you that in my own life, I do everything I can to be gracious and kind.

01:23:14.760 And I'm sure I make mistakes and everything else.

01:23:17.280 But I am a I am a big advocate for women.

01:23:23.200 And, you know, we've we've as a family have done a lot for, you know, battered women shelters

01:23:29.720 and everything else on a personal basis, because I grew up in a home of abuse.

01:23:36.080 So are we collective?

01:23:38.820 I mean, do do men are men responsible for this or are or is man?

01:23:46.320 And I'm sorry, are men responsible or is man responsible for this?

01:23:52.180 You know what?

01:23:53.260 I I think about this often, you know, I am a heterosexual man.

01:23:58.860 I deal with women.

01:23:59.560 I date women.

01:24:00.680 I've never violated a woman, never taken from never raped.

01:24:03.820 That is not a part of any iota of my makeup.

01:24:07.320 Right.

01:24:07.560 Have you ever been have you ever been have you ever, you know, like somebody just said the

01:24:11.960 other day and they tried to dismiss it?

01:24:13.300 Well, I mean, I, you know, I'll I will, you know, be a little more aggressive if they're

01:24:18.620 nervous.

01:24:19.340 Well, no, no, no, no.

01:24:21.880 That's a bad move.

01:24:22.700 OK.

01:24:23.280 Yeah, that's really.

01:24:24.600 Yeah.

01:24:25.260 No, no.

01:24:27.800 Yeah.

01:24:29.240 So here's here's the thing.

01:24:31.580 I have to pay the cost in my dating life for what other men have done.

01:24:36.380 This culture likes to say that, you know, we're all individuals.

01:24:39.480 But in fact, what is a human being?

01:24:42.620 You human beings like it.

01:24:44.500 You can't tell the power of human beings until you see us together.

01:24:47.960 You we are a collective to a certain degree, man.

01:24:50.780 Like what the heck is the use of language?

01:24:52.920 We have context.

01:24:55.560 We have a group think that we are all subject to called culture.

01:25:00.680 This is what we are raised in.

01:25:02.840 We are raised in a milieu of circumstances that give us our worldview and as as a race

01:25:08.320 and as a gender, you name it.

01:25:10.420 So I know I've never stepped afile of a woman in that way.

01:25:15.020 I have to realize that women are stepped on all the time.

01:25:17.920 Correct.

01:25:18.260 And so to to a certain extent, if I want to deal with women, I must deal with what women

01:25:23.740 go through and who is committed to being a good man, figure out how I can do my part

01:25:30.100 to remedy the situation.

01:25:31.100 But I can't ask to be just immediately separated from the group that I belong to just because

01:25:36.000 I haven't done anything wrong.

01:25:37.600 Right.

01:25:37.840 But here but here's here's look at it this way.

01:25:42.320 I know this to be true in my own life, because when I first started dating my now wife, she

01:25:49.120 had dated some real dirt bags and the damage that had been done to her.

01:25:54.840 It was just remarkable.

01:25:56.880 And and I know I said to her at one point, I'm not those guys.

01:26:03.120 I'm not that guy.

01:26:04.580 And she said, I know that I know that.

01:26:07.780 But it took her a long time.

01:26:09.660 And I had to really go out of my way to prove I'm not that kind of guy, you know.

01:26:16.300 And so I so I understand that.

01:26:19.020 But aren't we also creating a culture where we are just lumping all because I don't believe

01:26:25.900 Theo, that most men are like this.

01:26:28.680 I think there's a lot of men, but I don't think most men are like that.

01:26:32.800 And and shouldn't we be extolling the the good guys to shouldn't we be saying, hey, there's

01:26:39.700 a lot of really good guys out there.

01:26:41.460 And this is how the good guys behave.

01:26:43.220 I think that you run a risk in that point, because at the moment that somebody comes

01:26:49.640 to you wounded and broken, if you start, you know, extolling virtues and saying that

01:26:55.780 we're not all like that, in a way you dismiss their pain.

01:26:58.680 You have to be careful of that, you know.

01:27:00.440 And one of the things that, you know, just in basic like facilitation training, you know,

01:27:07.720 when I underwent mine, I it was like you have to make immediate space for somebody's

01:27:13.340 wounds at the moment that you just have to do that.

01:27:17.840 If you want to maintain any sense of stability and compassion for that person, you have to

01:27:22.700 make sure that they're heard when they're hurting.

01:27:25.240 Right.

01:27:25.460 So I'm not I'm not suggesting that you would say that to somebody who is coming to you,

01:27:30.260 et cetera.

01:27:30.520 I'm I'm talking about, you know, for instance, in my position every day I'm facing somebody

01:27:38.320 else that is being outed as an abuser.

01:27:40.800 I haven't called for anybody's resignation.

01:27:43.980 I don't want to defend anyone because I don't know.

01:27:47.900 I just do want to say that not all men are like that.

01:27:52.020 Some are.

01:27:52.760 And we have to we have to stop it.

01:27:55.620 But at the same time, we have to be cautious of witch hunts because it can get out of control

01:28:03.360 to where once you've set the precedence that somebody can just accuse you of something

01:28:08.140 and your career is over.

01:28:10.140 It's over.

01:28:10.740 Yeah, it's dangerous.

01:28:12.620 Oh, yeah.

01:28:13.700 I think that there will be a time for that.

01:28:15.760 I think that there will be a time for us.

01:28:19.880 Like there has to be a time for that.

01:28:21.660 I'm not sure if this is the time, but there will be a time for that to say, listen, man,

01:28:27.140 due process is a thing because there are also female predators.

01:28:31.600 Like there are women who will take advantage of men in drunken situations.

01:28:36.300 And, you know, especially if you're a star, somebody, you know, like like many guys who

01:28:42.040 are famous and rich are seen as prey items by women who are in search of the next meal

01:28:48.080 ticket.

01:28:48.500 So and there were like there have been manipulations of condoms.

01:28:51.220 There have been manipulations of alcohol, you name it.

01:28:54.140 Things that involve ecstasy that I've heard of from certain star athletes and movie stars.

01:28:58.080 So there are there is a conversation.

01:29:00.740 I'm not sure if right now is the time for it.

01:29:03.180 Do we run the risk of a witch hunt?

01:29:04.940 Yes.

01:29:05.700 I'm not sure that we can stand in front of this tide right now without being swallowed

01:29:09.180 by it.

01:29:09.700 You might like like all waves.

01:29:11.660 It has to reach its crest and it has to recede.

01:29:14.320 And that's what it seems like is going on right now.

01:29:16.800 But I think there I do not think that we have to worry that we're never going to have due

01:29:22.800 process and we're never going to have the defense of decent men again.

01:29:28.940 I don't think that we're we're in those waters.

01:29:31.060 So let me see if I can find any common ground here.

01:29:35.480 So far, I think we have common ground on this.

01:29:38.240 Yeah.

01:29:38.820 Yeah.

01:29:39.040 Let me let me move this politically here.

01:29:42.700 Roy Moore is has been accused of stuff and I could see it.

01:29:46.760 You know, I could see it both ways.

01:29:48.360 I don't happen to.

01:29:49.860 I happen to believe the accusers.

01:29:51.520 I don't happen to believe believe him.

01:29:55.340 The same thing happened with Bill Clinton.

01:29:58.040 I believe the accusers.

01:30:00.440 I didn't believe him.

01:30:02.120 The I'm I'm consistent.

01:30:04.800 I said the same thing that a man can't be.

01:30:08.300 They can't compartmentalize something that is really flawed flaw in his character and then

01:30:14.880 be, you know, not flawed elsewhere in his life.

01:30:19.580 That trait is a pretty big, important character trait.

01:30:24.180 I will believe the left is serious about this when they say, OK, yes, Roy Moore.

01:30:33.320 But you know what?

01:30:34.180 We need to reexamine.

01:30:35.540 And that guy's that guy's a predator, too.

01:30:38.760 And we didn't say that, but we should now.

01:30:42.360 You mean Bill Clinton?

01:30:43.520 Yes.

01:30:44.700 Well, I've heard people call Bill Clinton a predator on the left before.

01:30:48.700 I think that it's kind of a known fact at this point.

01:30:52.660 Bill Clinton's predatory behavior has a history decades long.

01:30:58.200 And it's kind of like public knowledge now.

01:31:00.620 I think that if you look at the left, the way that they went after Harvey Weinstein, man,

01:31:06.780 like the way that they let Harvey Weinstein hang for his crimes is kind of proved to me

01:31:12.120 that this was not a partisan situation.

01:31:13.700 This was written about somewhere, I believe, on CNN.com right after the Harvey Weinstein

01:31:17.780 story broke, where I really am not good at telling names right now who wrote this article,

01:31:25.400 but it is there.

01:31:26.320 How Harvey Weinstein's fall in Hollywood, a leftist, by the way, was tied to the left not

01:31:34.300 being willing to just be a hypocrite, that when we see predation on any front, we have

01:31:41.820 to go for it, including Mr. Weinstein.

01:31:43.820 I mean, by the way, you know, there's a lot of evidence toward what happened with Harvey.

01:31:48.620 Yeah, yeah.

01:31:49.640 I don't think this is as much of a partisan issue.

01:31:51.980 No.

01:31:52.500 As it is.

01:31:53.440 Yeah.

01:31:53.920 That one's a little over.

01:31:55.460 That one's really overwhelming.

01:31:56.820 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:31:57.560 Like, dude, rape is rape regardless.

01:32:00.720 Yeah, yeah.

01:32:01.700 I don't know what political money you belong to, you know what I mean?

01:32:03.360 Right, right.

01:32:03.740 How did he make any movies?

01:32:04.640 How did he even have time?

01:32:05.560 I know.

01:32:06.520 That's all he did.

01:32:07.440 Yeah.

01:32:07.780 So, Theo, I've got to run, and I'm sorry, because I enjoy our conversations, but I think

01:32:13.780 we can find the common ground here that no matter which side it is, we have to be consistent

01:32:21.060 and say, this is more important than politics.

01:32:23.940 Would you agree with that?

01:32:25.540 I think so.

01:32:26.220 I think this is a human issue.

01:32:27.920 Thank you very much.

01:32:29.140 I appreciate it.

01:32:29.820 Theo E.J. Wilson.

01:32:37.280 You can check out Theo E.J. Wilson's stuff at theoejwilson.com, and see his TED Talk.

01:32:43.120 Check it out if you haven't seen it.

01:32:44.060 It's a black man goes undercover in the alt-right.

01:32:46.200 And he doesn't agree with anything.

01:32:47.640 I mean, we just, I don't think we have a lot in common.

01:32:49.800 Well, I mean, he just did.

01:32:50.740 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:32:51.700 There is a lot there.

01:32:52.240 I really want to talk to him about ongoing slavery next time he's on.

01:32:55.340 And pick his brain on that.

01:32:58.820 Shopping online has a plus, but it also comes with risks.

01:33:02.560 And if you are planning on doing any holiday shopping, I want you to make sure that you

01:33:08.360 have done a couple of things.

01:33:09.380 First of all, make sure you're on a secure internet connection.

01:33:12.900 Don't use a hotspot.

01:33:14.280 That's an easy way to lose all of your information.

01:33:18.960 Make sure the site that you're on has a payment method that is secure, credit cards, gift cards.

01:33:23.820 Create a strong password.

01:33:26.480 And then, before you do anything, make sure you have LifeLock.

01:33:29.700 LifeLock is a system, a proprietary technology that looks and monitors as much as anybody humanly

01:33:40.600 possible can or, you know, a computer possible.

01:33:44.560 They monitor as much as they can.

01:33:47.020 And they're looking for different things.

01:33:48.720 I mean, if you're just doing credit monitoring, that's not enough.

01:33:51.120 Because if somebody takes your identity, they can now open up and take loans out in your

01:33:57.100 name.

01:33:57.400 They can commit crimes in your name.

01:33:59.240 So they're looking for all kinds of threats.

01:34:02.060 Nobody can, you know, monitor all transactions or, you know, follow everything in all businesses.

01:34:07.280 But LifeLock is the best.

01:34:09.760 And here's why.

01:34:39.040 Glenn Beck.

01:34:46.760 Glenn Beck.

01:34:47.920 A friend of mine sent me an audio clip yesterday from Colin Coward.

01:34:51.680 I've got to get this guy on.

01:34:52.940 He's a sports host.

01:34:54.660 And this is what he had to say about Colin Kaepernick and being the man of the year in

01:34:59.860 GQ or citizen of the year.

01:35:01.800 How's the magazine industry doing?

01:35:03.700 Not well.

01:35:04.780 Okay.

01:35:05.100 So that's established.

01:35:06.420 So let me ask you, here are their people of the year.

01:35:08.640 Which way is Stephen Colbert lean?

01:35:10.880 Left.

01:35:12.120 Kaepernick.

01:35:12.960 Left.

01:35:13.380 Durant.

01:35:14.760 Don't know.

01:35:15.520 Left.

01:35:15.740 Probably left.

01:35:16.320 He's in with Silicon Valley.

01:35:19.080 Gal Gadot.

01:35:19.980 Wonder Woman of the Year.

01:35:20.980 Yeah.

01:35:21.220 She's left.

01:35:21.780 Far left.

01:35:22.140 That's fine.

01:35:22.640 So what's the magazine industry doing in America?

01:35:25.900 It's talking to the country.

01:35:27.980 That's why the industry is dying.

01:35:30.680 This was a political award.

01:35:32.820 By the way, I'm an Obama voter.

01:35:34.680 I was a Clinton voter.

01:35:35.940 I was a Reagan voter.

01:35:36.660 I consider myself a social liberal, a fiscal conservative.

01:35:40.200 But this is why the magazine industry is out of business.

01:35:43.960 Why Sports Illustrated, which I grew up, that was the magazine.

01:35:47.260 More than my local newspaper, it's dead.

01:35:49.840 Why?

01:35:50.680 We have a country now that speaks to half the people.

01:35:53.640 The publishing business, the newspaper industry.

01:35:56.100 By the way, you want to know why the Fox News channel does okay and makes a billion dollars a year?

01:36:00.680 Because it's the one place conservatives feel speaks for them.

01:36:05.100 That's why the liberal channels slice and dice the audience and the conservatives go to one channel.

01:36:11.580 I mean, this to me is just a political statement.

01:36:14.040 Absolutely true.

01:36:15.140 Totally right on that.

01:36:15.940 Absolutely true and spoken just calmly and rationally, and they still don't get it.

01:36:21.560 The people in New York still don't get it.

01:36:25.920 In fact, I think they had the opportunity to get it, and I think the Donald Trump thing, instead of opening their eyes, made them more heartened.

01:36:37.680 I really believe it.

01:36:42.940 Glenn Beck.

01:36:45.940 CNN issued a report yesterday that I thought was remarkable.

01:36:57.720 They're covering actual news, but they approached this story oddly as if they found this hard to believe, that there is slavery happening in the Middle East.

01:37:11.360 Listen.

01:37:11.520 Our contacts are telling us that there are one to two of these auctions every month, and that there is one happening in the next few hours.

01:37:21.080 So we're going to head out of town and see if we can get some sort of access to it.

01:37:25.700 For the safety of our contacts, we have agreed not to divulge the location of this auction, but the town we're driving to isn't the only one.

01:37:35.480 We're ushered into one of two auctions happening on this same night.

01:37:39.060 Crouched at the back of the yard, a floodlight obscuring much of the scene.

01:37:46.180 One by one, men are pushed out as the bidding begins.

01:37:49.300 Four hundred.

01:37:51.440 Four hundred.

01:37:51.520 Five hundred.

01:37:53.520 Five fifty.

01:37:57.860 Six hundred.

01:37:59.860 You know what would be interesting?

01:38:01.580 This is CNN, and they're showing the men in Libya that are being auctioned off, and they are amazed by this.

01:38:10.740 CNN, we can make your life really easy.

01:38:14.360 We can have you interview 97 people that were used as ISIS slaves that our teams went in and rescued.

01:38:24.780 In fact, we just got two more, and we are looking for another 17 right now.

01:38:30.780 The slave trade is alive and well, and they're just they're showing the the auction of human beings and and and acting as though this is really rare.

01:38:45.060 Now, we can wait for, you know, the people like CNN to expose it, and then and then we can have a hashtag campaign or you can help us actually rescue people through the Nazarene Fund.

01:39:01.660 We have a announcement coming this Saturday at our gala event, and and we are doubling down.

01:39:10.520 We'll tell you about it on Monday here on the radio, but we are serious about the slave trade in the Middle East, and we really could use your help.

01:39:23.400 Our gala is happening on Saturday, and we always do something like this to raise money for our for, you know, for the keep the lights on.

01:39:34.180 I do a big benefit thing, and Chuck Norris is coming this weekend.

01:39:38.620 If you want to come to the M1 ball, you can tickets, I think, are $100 or $150 a plate, and all the proceeds go to help keep the doors open,

01:39:46.640 keep the insurance paid, keep the lawyers happy and and and and run the phones so we can then take every dollar and pour it directly to these rescuing these people.

01:39:59.680 So if you could help us out, go to mercury one dot org slash M1 ball buy a raffle ticket.

01:40:06.420 You could win a brand new truck.

01:40:07.720 If you don't want the truck, you can trade it in for the cash.

01:40:10.160 It's brand new GMC.

01:40:11.520 It's beautiful, and you have a pretty good shot of winning.

01:40:14.420 You don't have to be present to win.

01:40:15.800 Grab a raffle ticket.

01:40:16.980 You can bet on whose armadillo is going to win.

01:40:19.520 We're going to have an armadillo race, or you could just you can come or just donate money if you if you'd like mercury one dot org slash M1 ball.

01:40:35.860 Mr. Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed is with us now.

01:40:40.900 Hello, Pat.

01:40:41.300 What's the hashtag I use to stop slavery?

01:40:44.420 Um, uh, me want to help, too.

01:40:48.040 Okay.

01:40:48.780 All right.

01:40:49.200 And then that that ends it, right?

01:40:51.020 Yeah.

01:40:51.300 If you put the hashtag out, they can't do it anymore.

01:40:53.540 Well, also, if you have to add on the hashtag, please consider having less slaves.

01:40:57.880 Okay.

01:40:58.280 That's another one.

01:40:59.260 Another one?

01:40:59.700 Yeah.

01:40:59.960 You've got to make sure you get both of those in there.

01:41:01.400 Hashtag please consider having less slaves.

01:41:04.060 Please consider returning our children.

01:41:06.860 Oh, and that was an actual real one.

01:41:08.660 Oh, wait, was it?

01:41:10.060 Yeah.

01:41:10.500 Yeah.

01:41:11.600 Yeah.

01:41:12.000 Yeah.

01:41:12.280 It didn't really work.

01:41:13.160 Yeah.

01:41:13.840 So, anyway.

01:41:14.780 Mattel has a new doll out, and it's about time.

01:41:17.580 It's a hijab wearing doll.

01:41:19.540 Oh, my gosh.

01:41:20.200 I've been waiting for the new hijab.

01:41:21.560 For the new hijab.

01:41:22.940 It's in, I guess it's in honor of Olympic fencer Ibtihaj Muhammad.

01:41:27.480 Now, I love Ibtihaj Muhammad.

01:41:29.820 Well, who doesn't?

01:41:30.480 So, this is out perfect.

01:41:33.820 It's just out in time for Christmas.

01:41:35.060 Just in time for Christmas, or I'm not sure if it's in time for Ramadan.

01:41:39.100 Sometimes it is.

01:41:40.500 Sometimes it's not.

01:41:41.540 And sometimes it's not.

01:41:42.080 Right.

01:41:42.240 Sometimes it's already happened by now.

01:41:43.660 Sometimes it's coming up.

01:41:44.840 Right.

01:41:45.540 So, it's either just in time or a little too late.

01:41:48.700 But I'm sure you're up to date on when it happens this year, so you could obviously determine

01:41:52.960 which one it is.

01:41:53.500 You could.

01:41:54.100 You could do that.

01:41:54.640 No, I mean you specifically.

01:41:56.060 You could tell us right now.

01:41:58.120 You know, I don't want to insult people who already have their Ramadan plans.

01:42:03.380 Okay.

01:42:03.640 Right.

01:42:03.840 Or have celebrated and already used those Ramadan plans.

01:42:07.100 Exactly.

01:42:07.640 Yes.

01:42:07.980 Exactly.

01:42:08.560 Right.

01:42:09.200 Which category would you be in?

01:42:11.080 I'd be in the, I'm already, I'm already, I've got my Ramadan stuff already.

01:42:17.480 So did you, yeah.

01:42:17.980 Okay.

01:42:18.320 So are you going to get the hijab Barbie?

01:42:19.780 Anyway, yes, except for the fact that there is no Barbie car that comes with it because she's

01:42:26.780 not allowed to drive.

01:42:27.780 Yeah, she can't drive.

01:42:28.980 And she can't leave the Barbie mansion without.

01:42:31.840 So is there a, is there a front door on the Barbie mansion?

01:42:35.860 No.

01:42:36.420 No.

01:42:36.760 No, there's not.

01:42:37.640 Yeah.

01:42:38.280 And if you pull Ken's string, he says, I divorce you, I divorce you, I divorce you.

01:42:42.920 And he picks up with Malibu Barbie after.

01:42:44.520 Right.

01:42:44.900 So it should be a good Christmas gift.

01:42:47.420 Right.

01:42:47.700 Okay.

01:42:48.000 Good.

01:42:49.080 Or Ramadan.

01:42:50.640 If Ramadan.

01:42:51.300 Which is either coming or has already happened.

01:42:54.060 Coming or going.

01:42:54.940 Yeah.

01:42:55.480 It's one of the two.

01:42:56.700 You just don't know which one of the two it is.

01:42:59.280 Right.

01:42:59.560 Of course I know.

01:43:00.940 Yeah.

01:43:01.160 Okay.

01:43:01.420 I just don't want to insult anyone.

01:43:03.000 Because he's open-minded and tolerant.

01:43:03.960 Right.

01:43:04.460 That's right.

01:43:05.000 You don't want to insult people who have Ramadan plans.

01:43:06.940 I believe is how you are.

01:43:07.540 That's right.

01:43:07.980 That's right.

01:43:08.900 Here's how open-minded I am.

01:43:11.160 I think that the woman who just got thrown off a plane with her support pig probably has

01:43:17.440 a case against American Airlines.

01:43:19.960 Yeah.

01:43:20.540 You know, what kind of world do we live in?

01:43:22.360 What kind of world do we live in?

01:43:23.580 A woman brought a support pig on a plane and they said, okay, well, it's for my emotional

01:43:31.200 support.

01:43:31.800 It's an emotional support pig.

01:43:33.780 Oh.

01:43:34.380 Wait.

01:43:34.680 Wait.

01:43:35.080 Wait a minute.

01:43:35.960 Wait.

01:43:36.660 Wait a minute.

01:43:37.620 It's an emotional support pig.

01:43:38.300 Wait a minute.

01:43:39.040 Did it have the vest?

01:43:41.540 You know, yes, it did have a vest.

01:43:43.840 It did have a vest?

01:43:44.500 It did have a vest.

01:43:45.200 So if it had a vest and it had the car, yes, you can't have a pig on a plane.

01:43:50.600 Why?

01:43:52.180 Because this is because there's 200 other people on the plane.

01:43:56.360 So what?

01:43:56.960 And their sensibilities should be considered as well.

01:44:00.160 And the stench of the pig.

01:44:02.060 Oh, pigs can be clean.

01:44:03.020 Pigs can be clean.

01:44:04.120 And the pig was running around up and down the aisles.

01:44:06.040 It got unruly.

01:44:06.940 That's that's it.

01:44:07.740 It wasn't in a cage or anything.

01:44:09.320 No.

01:44:09.480 Hang on just a second.

01:44:10.360 Oh, okay.

01:44:10.880 That's different.

01:44:12.120 That's different.

01:44:13.120 That's what I thought.

01:44:14.240 Yeah.

01:44:14.480 I mean, if it's running around, that's different.

01:44:17.240 If it's sitting on your lap, you know, I mean, if I put a vest on a herd of cattle, can I

01:44:23.880 call them an emotional support herd?

01:44:26.360 Here's the thing.

01:44:27.180 You have to have a vest and you I know because I have two service dogs.

01:44:31.620 But that's okay.

01:44:32.620 A dog is reasonable.

01:44:34.720 Why isn't pig not?

01:44:36.040 Because as long as it has the tag, a pig, as long as it has the tag, that means that it

01:44:43.960 is qualified as a support animal.

01:44:46.760 As an emotional support animal.

01:44:48.440 Correct.

01:44:48.620 That seems like a scam.

01:44:49.660 It does to me, too.

01:44:50.260 Anybody can buy a vest.

01:44:50.960 Come on.

01:44:51.520 No, you can buy the vest.

01:44:52.360 You cannot.

01:44:53.300 I mean, they're not giving out the at least when I've gotten them.

01:44:58.480 Maybe it's because it's me.

01:44:59.840 But you can't just go get the tags.

01:45:02.200 The Department of Homeland Security is getting hacked and you think they can't manufacture

01:45:05.920 fake tags?

01:45:07.680 Well, now you've gone from a problem with a pig to saying the woman is making her own

01:45:17.420 fake pig tags.

01:45:19.100 I'm just saying that it's a scam that if you put a vest on, the animal can go anywhere.

01:45:23.340 It's like a certificate you print off the internet to be a surgeon.

01:45:27.720 It's like, what are you?

01:45:28.440 A vest makes this animal?

01:45:30.460 No, it's not the vest.

01:45:32.320 It has a place on it that has a picture of the pig, has the name, has the qualifications.

01:45:39.580 I mean, it's a license.

01:45:40.980 Mr. Libertarian over here is all pro-license all of a sudden.

01:45:43.600 Oh, wow.

01:45:44.340 Look at that.

01:45:46.160 What is this?

01:45:47.080 There's no way to win here.

01:45:48.580 There's no way to win.

01:45:49.880 No, you just lost this argument.

01:45:50.940 That's the design of this, yes.

01:45:52.360 Right, right.

01:45:55.640 So what are you supposed to do?

01:45:57.020 You're supposed to...

01:45:57.900 You're supposed to handle it during your flight, I think.

01:46:01.780 You're supposed to handle it without the pig.

01:46:03.800 That's my thing.

01:46:05.660 What if they...

01:46:06.280 Handle it without the pig.

01:46:07.100 They brought the pig all the way through security already, though.

01:46:09.340 What are they going to do?

01:46:10.360 Yeah.

01:46:10.820 Well, they took it off because the pig was running up and down the aisle.

01:46:13.340 See, that's the problem.

01:46:14.660 So then they tried to lash it to one of the seats and it couldn't.

01:46:18.980 They just pulled off the leash and so they finally had to take this.

01:46:24.540 Well, that's not a support pig.

01:46:25.500 That's just a pig.

01:46:27.020 That's what I'm saying.

01:46:29.380 The vet makes no difference.

01:46:30.900 There might be...

01:46:32.820 I've never heard of one, but I mean...

01:46:35.280 I don't think there are emotional support pigs.

01:46:38.300 I don't believe that's a thing.

01:46:40.280 I'll bet you there are.

01:46:41.120 What kind of emotional support can a pig give a human being?

01:46:44.120 Come on.

01:46:45.720 As bacon they can, yes.

01:46:47.580 More in-depth pig on airplane talk coming on Pat Gray Unleashed.

01:47:00.640 We are going to...

01:47:01.420 Pat, you're answering all the email from the people who have pigs.

01:47:08.100 I'm going to send them to you.

01:47:09.780 You can just email pat at glennbeck.com and...

01:47:15.580 Or Pat Unleashed on Twitter.

01:47:16.960 You can tweet him your emotional pig support...

01:47:20.740 Yeah.

01:47:21.440 I'd like to see pictures of all of the pigs that this audience has.

01:47:25.840 I'll bet you there is some...

01:47:27.040 I mean, come on.

01:47:27.520 It's 10 million people.

01:47:28.600 There's got to be people out there with pigs.

01:47:30.740 Of course there are.

01:47:31.860 That are running in their house.

01:47:32.940 And they're furious at us right now.

01:47:34.660 Oh, yeah.

01:47:35.400 My pig is clean.

01:47:37.080 He doesn't smell.

01:47:38.700 He sleeps with me every night.

01:47:41.220 And I can put quarters in his back.

01:47:43.720 My wife actually went through a period where she was trying to convince me to get a pig as a pet.

01:47:48.200 It was a limited period.

01:47:49.160 There's like pot belly pigs or something.

01:47:50.600 Yeah, like you actually can't...

01:47:51.380 And I guess they're pretty good pets.

01:47:52.780 Yes.

01:47:53.580 Supposedly.

01:47:53.980 Yes.

01:47:54.360 That does not mean you bring them on planes.

01:47:56.060 Yeah.

01:47:56.420 That's not a good idea.

01:47:57.400 There was one time that I wanted to have a lion as a pet.

01:48:01.360 You should do that.

01:48:02.340 You should actually go into a lion cage, test it out for a few hours just to see what happens.

01:48:06.220 I think those were in my drinking days.

01:48:07.800 I'm not really sure.

01:48:08.600 Anyway, your mortgage rate depends on a lot of factors.

01:48:12.500 The global economy, the loan that you choose, how many points you pay, other variables that

01:48:17.220 can add costs are the property type, whether your home is primary for you or not.

01:48:21.940 But this is why when you are a homebuyer and you're looking to get a loan, you need to find

01:48:30.100 the pre-approval mortgage guidance before making an offer on a home.

01:48:35.900 If you're a veteran, you haven't used your VA benefits with interest rates this low, now

01:48:41.100 is the time to get into a new home or to refinance.

01:49:42.180 Glenn, back.

01:49:44.140 Let's play the audio here.

01:49:54.320 This is Brian Johnson.

01:49:55.740 He's a startup entrepreneur describing the possibilities of having microchips inserted in your brain.

01:50:02.780 Listen to this.

01:50:03.340 I started a company called Kernel a year ago, and I invested $100 million to create chips that would be implanted in the brain to help address disease and dysfunction.

01:50:14.160 We're leveraging this emerging technology to also explore how we might extend human potential.

01:50:20.540 The first cochlear implant was approved by the FDA 30 years ago.

01:50:24.940 There's now 300,000 of these implants.

01:50:27.320 A deep brain stimulator was approved by the FDA in 1997, and 125,000 people now have this implanted.

01:50:35.220 Let's take a look at how far this technology has come.

01:50:40.600 Okay, so it's a guy who's in complete control.

01:50:47.980 He's holding up a monitor, and he turns this thing off.

01:50:53.280 He's in complete control, and now...

01:50:56.280 You won't be able to read that.

01:50:57.200 It's shaking too much.

01:50:58.320 His hands...

01:50:59.240 It's almost an instantaneous reaction.

01:51:02.560 His hands are completely shaking.

01:51:05.780 Parkinson's.

01:51:06.220 That's incredible, the difference.

01:51:08.340 Now, this just came out.

01:51:09.740 Science alert.

01:51:10.460 For the first time ever, scientists have boosted human memory with a brain implant.

01:51:16.040 University of Southern California has demonstrated the use of a brain implant to improve the human memory.

01:51:23.420 A research associate professor of biomedical engineering at USC recently presented his findings on a memory prosthesis.

01:51:30.400 Because they've put a chip into people's brains, and it stimulates different parts of the brain.

01:51:38.980 They have increased short-term memory by 15% and working memory by 25%.

01:51:45.560 That's incredible.

01:51:48.980 Ah, okay.

01:51:50.500 I mean, would you have that?

01:51:53.660 It's one of those things where you feel like the answer to that should be no.

01:51:57.240 I know.

01:51:57.840 But it actually kind of sounds great.

01:51:59.120 And I will say, the case he makes there, which is cochlear implants, where a person couldn't hear and now can.

01:52:05.840 People who had Parkinson's are able to control their lives because of these things.

01:52:10.020 These are implants, right?

01:52:11.260 They are changing the way the body, the brain works.

01:52:15.080 What's the difference?

01:52:16.680 It's a fairly compelling argument.

01:52:18.460 If you can improve your life, if you can take away diseases and ailments...

01:52:21.440 The difference is, I think, in this, this is augmenting yourself, and that's just stimulating your brain.

01:52:31.180 That's not a chip that you're uploading stuff into.

01:52:35.240 You're not merging with machines.

01:52:37.980 This is just a machine that is pushing you to the limits, I think.

01:52:42.680 That's the difference in my head.

01:52:44.360 Could be completely bogus.

01:52:47.100 The part that is spooky is the AI connection.

01:52:54.340 Tomorrow, we're going to get into this.

01:52:56.580 Inside the First Church of Artificial Intelligence,

01:52:59.520 The new religion of artificial intelligence is called the Way of the Future,

01:53:04.800 and it represents an unlikely next act for Silicon Robotics Wunderkin

01:53:10.380 at the center of high-stakes legal battle between Uber and Waymo, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

01:53:16.600 He says, what we're going to create is going to be effectively a god.

01:53:22.480 We need to face that.

01:53:25.480 It's not a god in the sense that it makes lightning or causes hurricanes,

01:53:28.420 but if there's something that is a billion times smarter than the smarter human,

01:53:33.280 what else are you going to call it other than God?

01:53:37.380 Warning!
