00:00:00.680 This is the Blaze Radio On Demand.

00:00:04.700 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:06.260 We're going to have the latest on the Gorsuch hearings.

00:00:08.520 Also, the latest on wiretapping.

00:00:13.460 A woman who says, 0.98

00:00:14.860 I just haven't stopped crying since she was hit with what's called the Tumblr Revenge.

00:00:22.040 I actually feel really bad for people who are being hit by the Tumblr Revenge.

00:00:30.720 And at the same exact time, I have absolutely no sympathy.

00:00:35.880 It is, you know what?

00:00:37.860 We're going to start right there, right now.

00:00:40.120 I will make a stand.

00:00:42.820 I will raise my voice.

00:00:45.080 I will hold your hand.

00:00:47.480 Because we are one.

00:00:49.320 I will beat my drum.

00:00:51.560 I have made my choice.

00:00:53.820 We will overcome.

00:00:56.080 Because we are one.

00:00:57.880 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:01.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:06.600 All right.

00:01:08.160 Hello, gentlemen.

00:01:09.360 How are you?

00:01:10.720 Very well.

00:01:11.300 Thank you for asking.

00:01:12.380 Good.

00:01:12.800 Glad to see you.

00:01:13.440 That's Stu, our executive producer.

00:01:15.240 Of course, joined by a renowned weatherman, Jeffy, and our sports guy, Pat.

00:01:21.880 Traffic coming up on the free.

00:01:23.160 Sunny day to you, Glenn.

00:01:24.440 Thank you very much.

00:01:25.860 We're going to check the weather and the traffic together on the 8th every 12 minutes.

00:01:30.140 Tumblr.

00:01:35.340 The Tumblr Revenge.

00:01:38.540 Now, here's the story.

00:01:39.720 Is this the blog Tumblr?

00:01:40.960 Tumblr, yeah.

00:01:42.140 Tumblr acts as if it's a staunch champion of women's rights by supporting such groups as Planned Parenthood.

00:01:46.980 Didn't know that.

00:01:48.360 But still refuses to help tackle revenge porn.

00:01:51.720 You know what revenge porn is?

00:01:53.820 Jeffy, would you like to tackle that one?

00:01:56.040 Yeah, Jeffy.

00:01:56.620 Let's see if you know.

00:01:57.460 What's revenge porn?

00:01:58.160 Oh, he knows.

00:01:58.840 What's revenge porn?

00:01:59.740 What's revenge porn?

00:02:00.960 When I, A, I can take a picture of myself and another female or male or whatever and send it to my wife and let her know that, hey.

00:02:11.260 Or, it's not revenge porn.

00:02:13.020 How do you not know what revenge porn is?

00:02:15.460 You send it to your ex-wife or send it to your wife and you're like, hey, I'm having a good time and you're not.

00:02:19.740 Correct.

00:02:20.400 Or you take a picture, you film your spouse or your ex-spouse having sex and put it on the internet and say, hey, this is them having sex.

00:02:29.340 I would say the traditional usage of revenge porn.

00:02:32.500 I do have an appreciation for the connoisseur over here who has more than one kind of revenge porn.

00:02:39.020 He's like one of those guys like, hey, what's your favorite macaroni and cheese recipe?

00:02:41.920 And goes into like a 25-page dissertation on how to make the cheese sauce.

00:02:46.400 There's the four cheeses and then there's the shapes of the macaroni.

00:02:50.540 He's a connoisseur.

00:02:51.600 So let me give you the top line here, which is if you are in a relationship and you have a sex tape and then you break up, then you post it because you're mad at them.

00:03:00.840 Okay.

00:03:01.160 Revenge porn.

00:03:01.880 All right.

00:03:02.200 So the problem is that Tumblr is not taking this stuff down right away.

00:03:06.300 Oh.

00:03:06.720 27-year-old Bronx woman sued the blogging site in Manhattan Supreme Court last week after a tape of her having sex with her boyfriend 10 years ago when she was 17 was posted in December and shared 1,200 times.

00:03:21.400 The post included the woman's name and a link to her Facebook page.

00:03:25.640 Oh, jeez.

00:03:26.500 She learned that the private X-rated video was on the site when strange men started contacting her through Facebook with obscene messages, which they describe and I don't need to.

00:03:36.340 I was devastated, she told the post.

00:03:38.500 I haven't stopped crying since.

00:03:40.860 Now, this is revenge porn.

00:03:44.040 Tumblr CEO David Karp is on the board of pro-women's rights groups such as Planned Parenthood leading a fundraising campaign that gave at least $80,000 last month.

00:03:54.220 Victims say they're outraged at the site's apparent contradictory behavior.

00:03:58.400 In my opinion, Tumblr has chose to ignore valid legal demands because they make more money using victims' photographs as clickbait than they do protecting minors.

00:04:09.500 All right.

00:04:10.240 Well, I don't think just because you're giving money to Planned Parenthood means you're protecting minors.

00:04:15.260 In fact, I would make the case quite the opposite, but especially the extreme minor.

00:04:20.660 Let me explain my dichotomy that I'm in.

00:04:30.200 I actually feel really bad for these women who this happens to, and yet at the same time I'm like, don't get into a porn video with your boyfriend.

00:04:43.420 Yeah, I mean, look, this is an illegal activity, right?

00:04:45.740 I mean, if you use videos like this in this way against someone's will, that is a crime.

00:04:52.100 It's horrible.

00:04:52.780 It's horrible.

00:04:53.540 There's one story in here that there's one story here about a woman who was married and her husband did what Jeffy, for a strange reason, 52-year-old mother of two,

00:05:05.320 discovered nearly a dozen private semi-naked images of her with her husband that had been posted to the site after she lost her phone.

00:05:16.740 So somebody took her phone, found the naked pictures of her with her husband, and posted them.

00:05:22.320 Why do people feel, a 52-year-old woman, why do we feel it's necessary to take naked pictures of ourselves and keep them on the phone?

00:05:35.520 It really is incredible, seemingly, how common this is.

00:05:39.660 Right.

00:05:40.320 Like, I don't want any, I don't want a mirror in my house.

00:05:44.940 Oh, yeah.

00:05:45.260 I certainly don't want a mirror in my bathroom.

00:05:48.000 The only reason why we have mirrors is because of my wife. 1.00

00:05:51.720 She's like, I need a mirror.

00:05:53.040 I need a mirror.

00:05:53.640 Okay, I don't need a mirror.

00:05:55.000 I don't want to look at me, especially naked.

00:05:58.140 I don't know how you do that, honey.

00:06:00.240 God bless you.

00:06:01.680 Everybody's created for a purpose.

00:06:03.300 Your purpose apparently includes this duty of seeing me naked with a towel around me getting out of the shower.

00:06:09.680 I'm sorry.

00:06:11.760 Why would somebody want pictures of themselves?

00:06:14.700 Well, not everyone has the Glenn Beck look, I will say.

00:06:18.080 You know, some people maybe are a little more desirable.

00:06:20.740 Do you know a single woman? 0.97

00:06:21.200 Do you know a single woman? 0.97

00:06:21.620 Some of us are better.

00:06:22.680 Do you know a single woman that is happy with their body? 1.00

00:06:26.580 Yeah, that's, I mean, this is a fair, everyone says they are on Instagram.

00:06:30.360 Yeah.

00:06:30.700 Other than that, no.

00:06:32.880 Oh, look at Pat.

00:06:35.600 Well, I do, yes.

00:06:37.400 I know one.

00:06:39.860 Shut up. 0.95

00:06:43.720 Shut up. 0.95

00:06:44.380 I have a pretty well-adjusted wife. 1.00

00:06:48.420 Shut up. 0.95

00:06:49.500 What part of the shut up didn't you get in shut up?

00:06:53.700 Shut her up. 1.00

00:06:54.640 Which one was it?

00:06:55.340 Which one was it?

00:06:56.600 But, yeah, I mean, I, but I don't, because this is a new thing, right?

00:07:00.560 There wasn't, before the, I mean, I guess it's technology more than anything else.

00:07:04.860 Right.

00:07:05.080 But that is not, does not seem like that was the line.

00:07:06.720 Like, back in the day, you had to have a camera, and you'd have to go to, like, the photo

00:07:11.080 mat.

00:07:11.340 Well, you'd have to go, yeah, you'd have to develop it.

00:07:13.200 Right.

00:07:13.500 And so no one would take these pictures, largely speaking.

00:07:16.360 I mean, I know Jeffy had sites, and before there were even websites.

00:07:19.340 Thank you.

00:07:19.820 There were magazines that were shared.

00:07:21.560 However, it was very rare, right?

00:07:23.160 Like, you know, to even get this stuff, you'd have to go to.

00:07:25.160 What was that like to work at a, think of this, because I remember going to the camera

00:07:29.940 store, not to even the photo mat, before they had the drive up things, okay?

00:07:34.700 There was a, there was a film development.

00:07:36.540 There was a photography place, or a camera store in downtown Mount Vernon, that all they

00:07:43.880 sold was cameras, and they developed films.

00:07:46.080 And I remember.

00:07:46.980 They knew everybody.

00:07:47.700 Right, yeah.

00:07:48.380 And I remember going in and saying, you know, hello to Mr. Hooper, who was either working

00:07:53.060 at the camera, or was part of Sesame Street, I don't remember.

00:07:56.540 But, you know, hey, Mr. Hooper, here's the film.

00:07:59.120 And they would develop it.

00:08:01.000 Always a good job to have working at the camera store.

00:08:03.240 It must have been.

00:08:05.500 Because if you were working and developing it there, look at Jeffy.

00:08:08.320 Oh, my gosh, he's turned evil.

00:08:09.800 Look at that look. 0.82

00:08:10.900 I'm just saying it was a good job.

00:08:11.580 He's like, if I could go back in a time machine, forget Jesus, I'm getting a job at the camera

00:08:16.220 store.

00:08:18.420 But, I mean, that was the, it was probably the big moment of your week, if you worked at

00:08:22.560 the camera store, when you're developing the photos, and all of a sudden you see the one.

00:08:26.040 Because I remember, it was one of those things where you weren't supposed to look at all

00:08:28.220 the pictures.

00:08:28.980 But you had to check them to see if they developed correctly.

00:08:31.080 Wait, wait, wait.

00:08:31.340 And that was the excuse.

00:08:32.500 Wait, wait, wait.

00:08:33.220 You did this?

00:08:33.840 No, I never did.

00:08:34.460 Oh, okay.

00:08:34.860 But I, you know, I've seen, it was a joke in the movies.

00:08:37.420 You've seen industrial films.

00:08:38.740 I've seen it.

00:08:39.060 No, but seriously, like, that was, that was a standard plot device in teenage comedies.

00:08:45.980 They'd all go work at the photo store.

00:08:47.460 They'd find the sexy picture of the mom. 0.99

00:08:49.220 And that was, like, a standard device.

00:08:51.980 Like, but, like, look at these two things as far as technology.

00:08:55.700 Pornography, for example.

00:08:56.980 Just, like, watching it.

00:08:58.520 There was a line back in the day that you had to go to the shady Jeffy store.

00:09:02.560 Oh, yeah.

00:09:02.780 And go through the shady Jeffy curtains and go to the, back to the, the place where Jeffy

00:09:07.500 had, like, was camping out in the weird Jeffy room in the back.

00:09:11.740 And you had to have your car parked in front of the porno store.

00:09:14.600 And nobody wanted to have their car parked out in the porno store except Jeffy.

00:09:17.660 So Jeffy was the only one who generally went.

00:09:20.040 Right?

00:09:20.320 I didn't know I was there.

00:09:21.180 I was open for business.

00:09:22.060 Now, you, you can get it anywhere on the internet.

00:09:25.060 And, and that line.

00:09:26.600 It's normalized everything.

00:09:27.640 Right.

00:09:27.940 Has solved, essentially, pornography's problem.

00:09:31.000 Right?

00:09:31.140 Like, they're, again, as a business, nobody wanted, nobody wanted those, what's the street

00:09:37.260 right down here?

00:09:37.880 We go down this street about 10 miles, 5 miles to the way to the airport.

00:09:42.020 Shockingly, it's neither an airport.

00:09:43.460 Yeah.

00:09:43.780 Where there's strip clubs and porno shops everywhere.

00:09:45.680 I mean, just a horrible section of town.

00:09:48.500 Nobody wanted that in their section of town.

00:09:51.300 All right.

00:09:51.540 Now it's in your house.

00:09:53.180 Right.

00:09:53.760 So that is a bright line that people didn't want to cross to get pornography.

00:09:57.280 Now that they don't have to cross that line, they, they get it a lot.

00:10:01.140 And that, that is understandable to me in that, like, you can understand the demand

00:10:05.440 for it and why people would avoid it earlier.

00:10:09.100 Taking pictures of yourself.

00:10:10.980 That was a camera developed, like a photo development line.

00:10:15.140 Like, like the line there seems to be, well, now I have a phone and I don't have to, no one

00:10:20.760 necessarily has to develop the pictures.

00:10:22.720 So I want to take pictures of myself naked.

00:10:25.280 Like that is, that is not my line at all.

00:10:27.720 I don't get it.

00:10:28.280 That is like, I feel bad for the camera.

00:10:30.880 And not only, not only do I not, I want to take pictures of me naked.

00:10:35.300 I'm going to take pictures.

00:10:36.740 Oh, I'm going to throw up in my mouth.

00:10:38.920 I'm going to take pictures of me having sex. 0.97

00:10:41.920 No, no, no.

00:10:44.020 It's a hard pass.

00:10:45.080 That is, that is an easy, that is like a no brainer, easy line to draw.

00:10:51.700 And I just don't understand why anyone, I mean, look, if you, if you're what's your face,

00:10:56.500 Jennifer Lawrence, like that she was involved in that scandal a couple of years ago, as Jeffy

00:11:00.580 will tell you in great detail, uh, it, it, it, who is probably responsible for up in

00:11:07.040 the cloud, but I mean, okay.

00:11:10.400 If you're Jennifer Lawrence, maybe there's a reason for you to take naked pictures of

00:11:15.060 yourself.

00:11:15.360 A, you look really good.

00:11:16.940 B, you're half naked in, in movies in front of a lot of people.

00:11:20.660 Maybe this is something that would be important to you.

00:11:22.360 I don't know.

00:11:22.740 I'm not in that world, but I mean, for the average person, why the hell would you ever do

00:11:27.060 this?

00:11:27.860 Have you looked at the average person?

00:11:29.660 Right.

00:11:29.900 We're awful.

00:11:30.840 We really are bad.

00:11:32.880 Pat's disgusted by this entire conversation, aren't you?

00:11:35.860 Really?

00:11:36.080 Yeah.

00:11:36.300 I'm quite uncomfortable.

00:11:39.000 Why are you uncomfortable?

00:11:41.740 It's harsh for this time of morning, I think.

00:11:48.980 All right.

00:11:50.400 All right.

00:11:51.880 We'll move on then.

00:11:54.380 I, I, I, I will save it for later.

00:11:57.180 The, the, the, the, the man, I only read this story because it used the word cuckold in

00:12:04.060 the right, uh, in the right way, in the right way.

00:12:07.400 You know how it always is?

00:12:08.680 It's like, you know, uh, conservative cuck, conservative cuckold, right?

00:12:13.000 Shut up. 0.95

00:12:14.360 But I saw cuckold stands by wife after sex with a 14 year old.

00:12:18.640 And it just, because it used the word cuckold in the right way.

00:12:21.900 This is the craziest story you've ever read.

00:12:26.020 And this guy is standing by, there's something seriously wrong with this dude, let alone his wife.

00:12:34.440 But, um, all right, let's take a quick break.

00:14:04.500 Uh, so we got to have this guy on, uh, uh, from the resurgent.com.

00:14:11.320 Mark Gillard wrote this, uh, really good article about you.

00:14:14.340 Yeah.

00:14:14.500 He's coming up in a few minutes.

00:14:15.560 Uh, and I was, I was afraid at first it was going to be ugly.

00:14:18.420 Glenn Beck rebooted.

00:14:19.520 Cause it usually is, you know, right?

00:14:23.300 It's funny.

00:14:23.840 No one ever likes your current thing.

00:14:26.340 Like you're always like, everyone is always saying a Glenn Beck is, is onto this new thing.

00:14:30.680 I used to like him last time, but they never say it when they liked you last time.

00:14:34.020 Right.

00:14:34.220 You know, this is amazing.

00:14:36.280 This is amazing.

00:14:37.140 Listen to this.

00:14:37.660 Let me start by saying I miss the old Glenn Beck.

00:14:39.340 No, not the Glenn Beck fire brand or the Glenn Beck Christmas sweater guy or the Glenn Beck

00:14:44.100 time magazine cover boy, given the raspberry to his detractors of the left.

00:14:47.560 The Glenn Beck I actually miss is the one that I used to hear a nine 70 WFLA in my home market

00:14:52.540 of Tampa Bay, where he started his talk radio phase of his career.

00:14:56.180 I have to tell you, I miss those days too.

00:14:58.520 We could never do those days.

00:15:01.040 Oh my gosh.

00:15:01.720 Oh my gosh.

00:15:02.260 Those days of radio are gone forever.

00:15:05.720 When you did local radio in Tampa and I was in Houston and the things we did that.

00:15:11.080 Oh, I know we'd be off the air.

00:15:13.200 You would call me all the time and be like, holy cow, I can't believe.

00:15:17.800 Yeah, I know.

00:15:18.740 It was a different world.

00:15:20.480 It was.

00:15:20.900 It was.

00:15:21.900 I can remember listening to that very first show, not quite knowing what to make of it.

00:15:25.900 And to be fair, the sound of things, neither did he.

00:15:28.720 It's true.

00:15:30.420 As time passed and it was developing.

00:15:33.080 Yeah.

00:15:33.820 Well, I remember.

00:15:34.500 Do you remember how I started my first show?

00:15:37.240 Program director came in and the first break.

00:15:39.760 Trust me.

00:15:40.320 Yeah, Jeffy does.

00:15:41.020 Jeffy was there.

00:15:41.540 Do you remember the first words, Jeffy?

00:15:43.540 I kind of do.

00:15:44.540 It was something like, I think I've made the biggest mistake of my life.

00:15:47.520 Those are exactly the words.

00:15:49.580 Yeah.

00:15:50.040 I had something else planned.

00:15:51.980 I forgot I agreed with that.

00:15:52.860 And I opened up the mics.

00:15:53.660 Yeah.

00:15:54.120 I opened up the mic and I said, hi, my name is Glenn Beck.

00:15:58.260 And this is my first day on the job.

00:16:01.280 And I may have made the biggest mistake of my life by coming here.

00:16:06.440 And I did this monologue off the top of my head.

00:16:08.900 We went into the break and the program director came in and she's like, what the hell are you

00:16:13.160 thinking?

00:16:14.280 And I'm like, I'm not.

00:16:15.460 I'm just, I'm just going with it.

00:16:17.420 I'm just going with the flow.

00:16:19.080 She's like, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard anybody do. 0.97

00:16:24.060 Anyway.

00:16:24.420 So he talks about the schlup club bits were hilarious, especially members of the Frisbatarian

00:16:29.740 church called in to stir the pot for those who weren't in on the joke.

00:16:33.040 His alter ego, Flap Jackson, could have given Tony Clifton a run for the money.

00:16:36.600 Those were good times.

00:16:38.820 He talks, he talks about in, in this, did you guys make it to the end of this story?

00:16:43.260 Yeah.

00:16:43.440 Yes.

00:16:44.880 Yes.

00:16:45.460 I, the, the last, the last, uh, paragraph, he says we can admire Glenn for, he goes on

00:16:51.720 to talk about how, you know, you're kind of reaching out.

00:16:54.220 We're trying to be, I don't know, bringing people together instead of dividing people.

00:16:59.600 He says we can admire Glenn for being the first to say enough and take a stand against

00:17:04.860 it.

00:17:05.460 But until he finds honest partners on the left who are willing to share the risk and

00:17:09.840 stand with him, I'm afraid his efforts will be doomed to fail.

00:17:13.340 I mean, that's a, that's a good point.

00:17:15.140 And that's what I think pretty much everybody believes is that we won't find anybody on

00:17:19.080 the left.

00:17:19.940 Although we have already, we've found Riaz, we found Samantha Bee.

00:17:24.040 There's a few, he makes a case on Samantha Bee that no, we haven't.

00:17:27.580 He doesn't talk about Riaz in this and, and he's a, he's a good partner on the left.

00:17:32.520 He really is.

00:17:33.760 And I, I'm, I understand the unilateral disarmament thing.

00:17:37.960 Cause I, I never wanted the United States to do that when the Soviet union wasn't going 0.99

00:17:41.780 to, but this is different.

00:17:44.520 This is, I mean, we're at the point where we're coming apart at the seams.

00:17:47.640 You actually have become a believer in this where you weren't a year ago.

00:17:52.140 And I think it's because we're seeing it work from the inside.

00:17:56.440 You're not seeing it yet.

00:17:57.580 And like he says here, we're so tired of politics.

00:18:00.940 I mean, that was a brutal last year that we just suffered through.

00:18:06.060 I just said to Pat, when we went off the air, I said, Pat, I'm sorry.

00:18:08.780 I didn't, I really, I don't think I've seen Pat that uncomfortable since our morning show

00:18:12.160 days.

00:18:13.020 And I said, I'm sorry.

00:18:13.960 It was like the morning show day.

00:18:15.300 Right.

00:18:15.460 I said, I didn't see that making you uncomfortable.

00:18:17.300 I'm sorry for that.

00:18:18.260 And he said, no, not a problem.

00:18:20.400 And I said, I'm just so tired of leading with politics.

00:18:24.920 I don't want to talk about politics anymore.

00:18:27.900 I just don't want to talk about it.

00:18:30.320 I mean, you know, it's important and we'll obviously cover what we have to.

00:18:33.840 But I mean, we have, you know, we have Kelly Shackelford.

00:18:36.440 I want to hear, I want one distilled take on what happened.

00:18:42.900 I don't want to chew on it for four hours or three hours.

00:18:45.560 Yeah.

00:18:45.760 And I think so much of it just gets into this sort of, we cover sports vibe.

00:18:51.880 Like, it's like, oh, well, this is the thing that like last night's game played out like

00:18:56.040 this, this team won and this team's losing and we need to see this team needs to change

00:19:00.520 this so they can win next time.

00:19:02.380 And like, I find that to be very interesting in sports for some unknown reason.

00:19:06.440 But with politics, it just seems so meaningless.

00:19:09.960 It's just, you know, these, you know, these people are, you know, overwhelmingly just shallow

00:19:17.520 and it's not, it's nothing real.

00:19:20.000 In sports, you a lot of times, not occasionally, a lot of times find people of amazing talent.

00:19:29.200 In politics, you never find people of amazing talent unless it's a talent that you're

00:19:36.440 you, no mother ever said, oh, when you grow up, you'll have this talent.

00:19:41.300 You know what I mean?

00:19:42.360 Like Harry Reid in Lying, for example.

00:19:44.800 Right, right.

00:19:45.860 He is good at that, I guess.

00:19:47.100 Yes.

00:19:47.460 But I'm not impressed by it.

00:19:48.960 And you're like, okay, well, I didn't, I don't admire people for being slimy.

00:19:53.560 At least in sports radio, you can go, look at that talent.

00:19:56.420 I mean, that's, that's God-given talent.

00:19:59.460 Back in a minute with Mark Giller.

00:20:11.320 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:14.320 Mercury.

00:20:18.560 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:20.600 Let's go to Mark Giller, who is joining us now.

00:20:23.880 He's from TheResurgent.com.

00:20:26.220 And he wrote a, he wrote an article called Glenn Beck Rebooted.

00:20:30.560 And Mark, good to have you on.

00:20:33.500 Hey, Glenn, thanks.

00:20:34.500 I appreciate being on.

00:20:35.620 Thanks.

00:20:35.840 You bet.

00:20:36.360 I appreciate the, the spirit of the article.

00:20:40.640 And it's nice to actually talk to a fan who has been a fan literally from the beginning.

00:20:49.280 Yeah, actually, it's kind of interesting because when I read the Washington Post profile that

00:20:53.680 inspired the article in the first place, I hadn't really intended to go down that direction.

00:20:57.680 But when I sat down to actually start writing it, a lot of memories of the show back in the

00:21:02.800 old days on 970 WFLA just came rushing back to me and just sort of started pouring out to

00:21:07.600 me and kind of turned into this very, very long introduction.

00:21:09.820 But, you know, once I started rolling with it, it was, I was having so much fun with

00:21:12.980 it.

00:21:13.200 You know, just talking about the Frisbyterian shirt.

00:21:15.880 I love those.

00:21:17.920 Those were, yeah, we, we, you know, for anybody who doesn't know what the schlub club was,

00:21:25.400 I used to pit the four o'clock audience against the five o'clock audience.

00:21:29.640 And I would tell the four o'clock audience that, you know, they were the real audience,

00:21:34.580 the five o'clock audience.

00:21:35.800 They were the schlubs. 0.83

00:21:36.620 They were the people that just stroll in.

00:21:38.440 Oh, I'm working.

00:21:39.460 And I can't listen.

00:21:40.940 And so let's screw with them.

00:21:42.980 And so we would plan, we would plan something all hour.

00:21:47.340 And then I would set up the calls.

00:21:49.760 So when the next people, when the people got off of work, they would just turn on the radio

00:21:54.540 and they would start hearing these crazy people calling in.

00:21:57.740 And they, by the end of the hour, they would be like, I live in an asylum.

00:22:02.860 And all these people would, you know, the, the didn't, weren't in on it, would call in

00:22:07.020 and go, are all of these people crazy?

00:22:09.240 And that was the funny part too, because I was actually one of those schlubs at first.

00:22:14.360 Because I didn't get off work at five o'clock.

00:22:16.380 So again, I'm driving across the Howard Franklin bridge going home.

00:22:19.120 And listen, it's like, what the heck are these people?

00:22:23.040 I can't believe it.

00:22:23.960 But, you know, it just got so off the chart.

00:22:26.060 It's like, all right, this has got to be up yet.

00:22:27.840 And so I eventually figured that out.

00:22:29.560 So I was in on the joke at that point.

00:22:31.320 And I just, I couldn't wait to hear those every single day.

00:22:33.400 Yeah, no, they were great.

00:22:34.700 They were great.

00:22:35.260 We've never been able to do them because we don't know how to divide.

00:22:38.440 We didn't know how to divide the show up because some stations, because of time zones, shuffle the hours.

00:22:45.880 And I remember, do you remember, Stu, were you with me when I did I'm in love with my sister?

00:22:51.380 Yeah, you were with me.

00:22:52.680 Do you remember that, Mark?

00:22:55.680 I don't remember that one.

00:22:57.580 Okay, so I remember advising you not to do that.

00:23:00.360 Yeah, I did this whole hour where I built it up and I said, listen, I want you to know, I'm going to talk about something that I've never shared before.

00:23:11.160 And I did this really heartfelt monologue of the first time I fell in love.

00:23:17.540 And I'm not going to be ashamed of it anymore.

00:23:20.760 And it was up on the Ferris wheel when I was a kid and I kissed my sister.

00:23:26.860 It's so disturbing.

00:23:28.020 Yeah, and it was a whole thing to see if I could sway the audience to defend brother-sister love and got them there until the end I was supposed to then come in and say, okay, so here's the thing.

00:23:47.940 I'm just making a point here that I can get you to believe anything if I put enough.

00:23:55.600 If you don't have principle.

00:23:56.320 I mean, it's the same points we're making today.

00:23:58.000 Correct.

00:23:58.240 If I give you enough love stuff and heart stuff, you're going to fall for anything.

00:24:02.920 Well, unfortunately, it was when I was first starting syndication and President Bush had to give a speech about 9-11.

00:24:12.160 And the affiliates all dropped off literally at the explanation.

00:24:17.880 So for 24 hours, I had affiliates calling saying, we are not running this show ever again.

00:24:26.480 So anyway, so your point here, the reason why I wanted to get you on is your point.

00:24:31.900 So you can admire Glenn to be the first to say enough and take a stand against it.

00:24:35.660 But until he finds honest partners on the left who are willing to share the risk and stand by him, I'm afraid his efforts are doomed to fail.

00:24:42.320 Tell me about that.

00:24:43.060 Yeah, well, it was kind of mostly inspired by what had happened with Sam B.

00:24:49.160 Because I heard the segment that you had her on your radio show when I was driving out to Orlando.

00:24:57.340 And I thought, well, you know, I've never been a big fan of Samantha Bee.

00:25:00.220 You know, obviously, I'm a creature of the right myself.

00:25:02.380 And, you know, kind of think she's a lot of opinions are kind of full of it.

00:25:04.740 But listening to that, I thought to myself, all right, well, you know, this is worth a try, because it's kind of akin to some of the things that I've had to do in mostly my online dealings with people, especially since I've gotten more into political blogging and whatnot.

00:25:17.940 You can get into arguments with people.

00:25:19.300 But my philosophy was always to be to, all right, I'm not going to be able to persuade people by putting them down, making them feel stupid, calling them names.

00:25:26.560 And I always tried to deal with them in a respectful kind of way.

00:25:28.720 So when I heard you and Samantha going back and forth and talking to each other about how we need to change the tone and how we converse with one another, I did respond to that.

00:25:36.580 But a couple of weeks later, she's on her show, and she's comparing this poor cancer survivor at CPAC to a Nazi because of his haircut.

00:25:45.160 And it just kind of really struck me because I thought, well, you know, she really took it to heart, the conversations you had.

00:25:50.640 She really, really wanted to go ahead and change the tone.

00:25:53.340 She wouldn't be doing that kind of thing. 0.56

00:25:55.140 And it just kind of concerned me because, you know, I'm a big leader in the effort that you're trying to do here.

00:26:01.060 And I think that you're taking, obviously, a tremendous career risk, potentially alienating people in your audience.

00:26:06.460 I know you're probably getting a lot of names being called, you know, particularly from the right, about being a sellout and whatnot and trying to coddle the left and whatnot.

00:26:13.120 But, you know, I do believe that we have to start someplace.

00:26:16.340 But I'm just really concerned about partnering up with the wrong people who aren't really taking it to heart and who are maybe just using this as an opportunity to promote themselves instead of actually really starting a dialogue and trying to make the conversation more civil between the left and the right.

00:26:29.800 So I'm thinking and Mark, I can't tell you how much I appreciate your attitude and your approach on this.

00:26:37.020 We've talked about this for a long time, and we believe we're going to have to kiss a thousand frogs before we find one prince because it is difficult to.

00:26:47.940 I was just on with Tavis Smiley.

00:26:50.260 It airs on PBS, I think, today or tonight or something.

00:26:54.820 And he said, so why aren't you having more success with people?

00:27:01.780 And I said, that's my question for you, Tavis.

00:27:04.260 Now, he was very, very open and, you know, but he has kind of a softer attitude anyway.

00:27:13.640 But he said, so why do you think it is?

00:27:16.620 And I said, because I don't, I'm not sure that, he said, actually, he phrased it this way.

00:27:26.120 Is it because people aren't self-reflecting because perhaps there was nobody, this is a quote, quite as bad as you?

00:27:35.560 And I said, well, okay, that's one way to look at it.

00:27:41.920 Or.

00:27:42.580 I think you never listen to Michael Savage.

00:27:44.760 Or, you know, is it that people don't want to look at themselves?

00:27:52.320 It's easier to look elsewhere.

00:27:56.340 And I could tell you that there are people that, you know, let's look at Bill Maher, even Samantha Bee, that have said some really difficult things about people on the right.

00:28:14.380 Are they looking?

00:28:15.220 Are they looking inside of themselves?

00:28:18.160 I don't think so.

00:28:19.380 It's easier to look outside.

00:28:21.040 So it requires somebody to be humble enough to say, what part did I play in this?

00:28:26.100 Yeah, well, that was another aspect of the WAPO article that kind of set me back a little bit as well, too, because the tone of it was all, you know, here's Glenn Beck.

00:28:36.020 He's trying to hug his way back into bringing America back together.

00:28:39.600 I thought that was an unfair article, by the way.

00:28:43.280 I thought it took some things, to some liberty with some things that was not the right tone.

00:28:49.040 But anyway, go ahead.

00:28:49.800 Yeah, well, the thing that struck me about that was that it made this, it proceeded from this assumption that it was all you're doing.

00:28:59.700 And, or, you know, you can extrapolate that to it's all on the right side of the political spectrum, where all the hatred is coming from and where all the acrimony is coming from.

00:29:09.220 And that is not the case at all.

00:29:11.180 And, you know, if, yeah, if the author, Mark Fisher, had seen fits to balance it out a little bit and maybe seeking out some people on the left and talking about how they contribute to the, you know, the overall corruption of, you know, how we talk to each other, how we think of each other in this country.

00:29:27.880 I think it would have been a heck of a lot.

00:29:29.000 I will tell you, Mark, that you're right on the money and I'm waiting for somebody to do that.

00:29:33.880 And so far, nobody is willing to do that.

00:29:37.300 Everybody's willing to dogpile.

00:29:38.860 And I, I keep waiting for somebody to say, Hey, wait a minute.

00:29:43.300 Well, again, though, it's us too.

00:29:45.000 What's happening to you?

00:29:45.980 But look at what's happening to you and your attempts to do this.

00:29:48.360 I mean, I can't even imagine the amount of hate mail that you get over just this particular subject.

00:29:52.660 That's just from the staff.

00:29:53.700 I posted this article.

00:29:54.740 I've been getting a few hate tweets myself.

00:29:56.080 You know, I'm just Joe Nobody who writes an article on the internet.

00:29:59.000 So I can't even imagine what that would be like magnified, you know, a million fold, like what you're dealing with here.

00:30:03.800 And I think that, you know, people on the left, particularly those who make their living in the media,

00:30:08.860 and they have this image that they have to uphold, are thinking the same thing and saying, Holy crap, I don't want that happening to me.

00:30:14.500 You know, I want to give my audience what they want.

00:30:16.340 And that's kind of what I think what Samantha Bee was doing when she was doing her Nazi shtick with the, with CPAC attendees, 1.00

00:30:22.240 is that, oh, well, maybe she got a few hate tweets of her own off of, you know, appearing with Glenn Beck or having you on her show.

00:30:28.800 And thinking, well, I got to go throw a bone out here to my listeners or my viewers and, you know, let them know that I'm not being, you know, going all soft on the right.

00:30:35.980 And that's problematic.

00:30:37.640 I'm talking to Mark Giller of The Resurgent.

00:30:39.600 And, Mark, I was fascinated by that point because you're right.

00:30:43.360 I mean, it was a cheap joke at the expense of some guy at CPAC.

00:30:47.740 Now, it turns out that the guy has cancer and there was a lot more to the story, but she didn't know that at the time.

00:30:52.260 And it wasn't her joke.

00:30:53.180 It was the.

00:30:53.940 It was some correspondent, right?

00:30:55.080 It was a correspondent.

00:30:55.760 But, I mean, I was interested in seeing your article because you talked about the days of 970 WFLA, the mothership of this particular show.

00:31:03.400 Yep.

00:31:03.480 And, you know, those are great times and they were really funny, but also really harsh.

00:31:08.420 They were mean.

00:31:09.220 And we, at a lot of times, made fun of the appearance of somebody on the left.

00:31:13.840 And we joked and made all sorts of things like that.

00:31:16.140 It was a harsh show for laughs.

00:31:18.740 And I remember at the time, Glenn, saying in comedy, there's always a victim.

00:31:23.320 There's always a victim.

00:31:24.080 We should always just make the first victim ourselves.

00:31:27.120 And so that was the way we ran the show.

00:31:28.960 But, I mean, her joke, is that just a funny line that we should all just be able to get over?

00:31:36.540 Or is it really some, you know, attack that shows that she's not being an honest partner in whatever is trying to be done here?

00:31:45.200 Well, you know, I mean, I love to employ humor in the stuff that I write as well, too.

00:31:49.840 And, you know, God knows that Twitter, Twitter being the medium that it is, it just lends itself to snark.

00:31:54.140 And I've definitely been, you know, guilty of doing that myself from time to time, although I've never called anybody a commie or a pinko or anything like that.

00:32:01.720 But, yeah, and I, you know, but I do, I really, one of the things about the mean culture that we have right now is that, yeah, it does make it increasingly difficult to make even good jokes and to laugh at each other because everybody's taking themselves so damn seriously.

00:32:13.900 It's very, very difficult to do.

00:32:16.520 And I think that, you know, if maybe the way we react to things like the Nazi joke on Samantha Bee's show is because we on the right have taken it on the shin so much from the popular culture where we're always cast as the fuddy-duddies.

00:32:32.560 We're always cast as, you know, the ones who want to get into everybody's bedrooms and we don't want you to have any fun and whatnot.

00:32:37.180 When, you know, really a lot of that's actually what's going on on the left these days.

00:32:40.960 And it's just, you know, I guess it just makes us really mad because we've been the butt of jokes so many times.

00:32:46.300 And that, you know, leftists really typically have an extremely difficult time laughing at themselves.

00:32:53.840 So, you know, I think maybe that's where we are.

00:32:56.640 I tell you, Mark, when somebody actually hears, really hears what you just said on the left, when they really hear you, things will change.

00:33:10.340 But they don't so far.

00:33:12.600 I've been trying and they don't hear that message yet.

00:33:16.940 But once they do, I think we can come together.

00:33:19.640 I do hope that that is the case, because my fondest wish in our politics is that, you know, we stop yelling at each other and actually start talking to one another instead.

00:33:31.460 But, you know, the way things are right now, it's all emotion.

00:33:34.220 It's all id.

00:33:35.240 It's, you know, very little debating the actual facts.

00:33:37.840 And, you know, I think that, you know, how we came to that is, you know, obviously we've got mainstream media that's out there stirring the pot as well, too, because, you know, it gets some clicks and it gets some views.

00:33:47.600 If people are screaming at one another, Washington's happy with that, because they get away with whatever they want to get away with, because people are distracted with minutia rather than, you know, taking a look at the real big issues and things that are really affecting them on a day-to-day basis.

00:33:59.960 So you do have this entrenched power structure that's in place that has a vested interest in keeping us at each other's throat.

00:34:06.120 So, yeah, it's going to be really tough.

00:34:07.620 I only have about 10 seconds.

00:34:09.560 Do I, what I really wanted to ask you was, you said, well, I think it's doomed for failure.

00:34:15.960 So do I continue or do I not continue?

00:34:19.980 No, it's only if you get the wrong partners that it's doomed for failure.

00:34:24.260 The interesting thing about the, what you were mentioning about Riaz, your friend as well, too, is that maybe he's going to be more of an honest partner because he's less of a celebrity.

00:34:32.120 You know, he's got, you know, less of a reputation to uphold, I guess, with his audience, because he's kind of more of a behind-the-scenes type guy.

00:34:39.560 So I think maybe you might be more productive with that than, you know.

00:34:42.260 Going back to the last segment, maybe you ought to watch How It'll Look Good Naked.

00:34:46.740 All right, man.

00:34:47.780 Thank you so much.

00:34:48.820 God bless.

00:35:48.360 Mercury.

00:35:52.200 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:35:56.140 Update on what happened with Gorsuch yesterday with Kelly Shackelford.

00:36:01.400 He's going to be on with us every day and kind of give us an update on what to expect.

00:36:06.000 Did you see?

00:36:07.060 I mean, this is the thing that I just want to stop.

00:36:11.460 Here, play a little of Gorsuch.

00:36:13.320 Okay, listen to his testimony.

00:36:15.180 His name was Increase Sumner.

00:36:17.200 And written onto his tombstone over 200 years ago was this description of the man.

00:36:21.140 As a lawyer, he was faithful and able.

00:36:26.200 As a judge, patient, impartial, decisive.

00:36:31.440 Okay, stop.

00:36:32.320 Doesn't he sound like, I mean, this is like a book on tape.

00:36:35.700 Yes.

00:36:36.320 Yes.

00:36:36.820 It's a terrible delivery.

00:36:38.240 And also, the stuff he lists that was on the tombstone, either that's really small font or that tombstone is gigantic.

00:36:44.460 Okay, so, but he's so calm and cool and collected.

00:36:49.260 And what is Chuck Schumer?

00:36:50.700 Yeah, right.

00:36:51.400 That's what you want.

00:36:52.240 What did Chuck Schumer come out?

00:36:53.740 Calls him a radical.

00:36:54.680 Says it's time that we rise up in the streets.

00:36:58.840 Calling for chaos.

00:37:00.880 I mean, I just had enough of it.

00:37:02.480 I've just had enough of it.

00:37:04.500 Yeah.

00:37:05.280 As Cruz said, none of them said a word 10 years ago when he was confirmed as a judge.

00:37:09.740 Not one word.

00:37:10.280 Not one word.

00:37:11.840 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:37:16.000 Mercury.

00:37:30.400 This is the Blaze Radio On Demand.

00:37:34.580 Welcome to the program.

00:37:39.380 We're going to get right to it.

00:37:40.400 Supreme Court yesterday, what happened?

00:37:42.840 The audio and analysis begins right now.

00:37:46.280 I will make a stand.

00:37:49.760 I will raise my voice.

00:37:51.960 I will hold your hand.

00:37:54.360 Because we are one.

00:37:56.200 I will beat my drum.

00:37:58.420 I have made my choice.

00:38:00.660 We will overcome.

00:38:02.060 Because we are one.

00:38:04.740 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:38:08.820 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:13.960 Hello, America.

00:38:15.180 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:16.760 Let's go right to Kelly Shackelford and find out what happened yesterday.

00:38:20.320 If any minds were changed, if any of the Democrats softened, or if they look like they're going

00:38:29.800 to follow Chuck Schumer when he calls for chaos.

00:38:33.620 Welcome to the program, Kelly Shackelford.

00:38:35.220 How are you?

00:38:36.460 Good.

00:38:37.100 Great to be on, Glenn.

00:38:38.220 Kelly has all of the information at TrumpNominee.com.

00:38:42.000 TrumpNominee.com, where you can follow it, see the videos, and get all of the background

00:38:48.240 on Gorsuch.

00:38:49.120 What did you think, Kelly?

00:38:51.320 You know, what I expected, a lot of preening, speeches given by senators.

00:38:56.840 And really, today is when it started.

00:38:59.500 It's already started, the hearing.

00:39:01.960 And that's when they're going to try to catch him.

00:39:04.000 And then, of course, they dropped their bomb, what they thought was the best they could

00:39:06.920 do today.

00:39:08.320 NPR dropped a story attacking him, having some student that was in his class making claims

00:39:14.260 that now all the other students are coming out and saying are false.

00:39:18.020 But what were the claims?

00:39:20.660 He teaches a class at the University of Colorado Law School.

00:39:25.180 And they said that in the class that he, this one student said that he had said something

00:39:30.480 about women taking advantage of maternity leave in the workplace.

00:39:36.240 And a number of other students just totally disputed that.

00:39:39.340 It's an ethics class.

00:39:40.760 And he was talking about the different things that people are pressured by.

00:39:45.460 And he gave that amongst many examples and then gave the arguments and counterarguments

00:39:50.220 for both sides.

00:39:51.780 But the attacker that was used by NPR didn't bother to say that.

00:39:56.360 So they're, you know, they really don't have much on him.

00:39:59.340 And so the attacks are very weak and they almost always fall apart within seconds.

00:40:05.120 But that's, you know, I think their only hope is during the questioning and answering, you

00:40:10.040 know, which just started already today, that they can catch him saying something.

00:40:14.760 Otherwise, I think they're really in an uphill battle.

00:40:17.880 I was looking at the article you mentioned, which I had not seen, Kelly, from the NPR, which

00:40:22.360 begins now with this editor's note.

00:40:25.260 Since the story was first published, we have added material from another former student

00:40:29.900 and former law clerks of Gorsuch, as well as more information about Jennifer Sisk's political

00:40:35.480 affiliations.

00:40:36.960 And those political affiliations are she used to work for a Democratic senator. 0.96

00:40:42.260 Yes.

00:40:42.640 That's the person who is accusing Gorsuch of this.

00:40:44.920 A staffer of Democratic Senator Mark Udall of Colorado.

00:40:48.420 Wow.

00:40:48.700 So, I mean, this is, you know, nonsensical.

00:40:51.600 And they have 11.

00:40:52.300 Well, first of all, it's in an ethics class.

00:40:54.080 Of course, you're going to say things that are unethical.

00:40:56.880 In an ethics class, you're exploring ethics.

00:41:03.060 It's the Socratic method is kind of what you do when you're teaching these kinds of classes.

00:41:07.680 Yes.

00:41:07.940 And by the way, one of the people who came forward supporting, you know, Judge Gorsuch

00:41:15.500 was a very liberal Democrat student who totally disagreed with what NPR was saying.

00:41:22.340 And so I guess that's why they're updating it.

00:41:24.220 They've even got people who are on the far left wing.

00:41:26.840 I do find some irony in the fact that NPR, you know, meanwhile, we have President Trump

00:41:31.300 cutting, you know, some of the money to NPR and these types of groups.

00:41:36.260 And here they are, a somewhat government-funded entity that is attacking, you know, somebody

00:41:43.200 to be on the Supreme Court.

00:41:44.560 There's some, I don't know, there's something really bizarre about all of that.

00:41:47.840 And I think it gives extra credence to why maybe government money shouldn't go to groups

00:41:51.560 who are going to do that.

00:41:52.260 Let me ask the question that was asked of me over and over again yesterday was how nasty

00:42:05.520 is this going to get?

00:42:07.000 Is this going to go to the nuclear option or not?

00:42:11.040 And I think we touched on this yesterday.

00:42:13.720 I can't imagine they're going to do that because he's not.

00:42:19.480 I mean, if you listen to him yesterday, he's a very reasoned, soft-spoken, he sounds like

00:42:27.740 books on tape.

00:42:30.120 He's just not that kind of a caricature that I think the American people will be afraid

00:42:35.440 of.

00:42:35.820 And, you know, Chuck Schumer yesterday was calling for chaos in the streets.

00:42:41.340 I mean, this is nuts.

00:42:44.100 I agree with you, Glenn.

00:42:46.960 I think he's, they can't make him a bork.

00:42:49.900 They can't make him somebody who, you know, the image they want to create for him just

00:42:54.520 doesn't work because he's a humble person.

00:42:56.960 He's a restrained person.

00:42:59.200 He's got 3,000 opinions.

00:43:00.920 He's got liberals that are endorsing him because they just think he's such a good person.

00:43:06.380 You know, one of Obama's head solicitor general came out and endorsed him.

00:43:10.640 So you've got all these people that recognize what anybody does when you look at him, which

00:43:15.620 is not this monster that they'd like to create.

00:43:18.960 So I think they're in a struggle, though.

00:43:20.940 I think that the base really wants these Democratic senators to bring out the knives.

00:43:26.020 And so I think that's why we see them saying some of these outrageous things.

00:43:29.360 But when it comes, push comes to shove, you've got all these senators who are in states that

00:43:34.980 were carried by Trump.

00:43:36.660 And when they vote, that could cost them their seat because their seat is coming up.

00:43:42.260 You know, a third of the Senate's coming up in this next election.

00:43:44.860 And a number of those were carried by Trump, those states.

00:43:49.120 So I don't think we are going to see the filibuster.

00:43:52.160 Now, I think many conservatives kind of hope we do, because if there is a filibuster, it's

00:43:58.740 so unreasonable in this situation that I think most people think that they will use the nuclear

00:44:05.120 option, what they call the nuclear option, and just change the rules and say, OK, there's

00:44:08.620 no need for a filibuster.

00:44:10.160 This is abusive.

00:44:11.420 And then that will make the way for the next time when it is going to be a huge battle about

00:44:16.820 who controls the court not using the filibuster.

00:44:19.480 So many people kind of hope they do overplay their hand, but I just don't think they will.

00:44:23.600 So, Kelly, do you think that the American people are going to sit through, for instance,

00:44:28.740 what Schumer is talking about is he said, you know, this is all the stuff that's going

00:44:33.580 on with Trump.

00:44:34.740 And he brings up he ends up with immigration reform.

00:44:39.780 And he said, you know, if this if this isn't solved, you know, you want to build the wall.

00:44:44.920 Maybe we should say we're going to shut down the government.

00:44:48.300 There's a quote.

00:44:48.840 We're going to shut down the government.

00:44:49.960 We're not going to raise the debt ceiling until you pass immigration reform.

00:44:54.220 Well, wait a minute.

00:44:56.560 That is exactly what they said was irresponsible and, you know, was anti-government.

00:45:03.140 Do you think people are even going to remember that?

00:45:08.240 Or do you think people will call bullcrap on both parties for playing this game?

00:45:14.500 I think at this point, I think people, you know, voted for some pretty dramatic change.

00:45:22.240 They felt like the government was broken and they wanted to see something get done.

00:45:25.760 So they, you know, they they did something pretty drastic.

00:45:29.780 And I think somebody just obstructing for obstruction's sake doesn't go over well right now.

00:45:35.900 I think that's the sort of politics that people are tired of.

00:45:38.480 So I think that I really think that, you know, people like Schumer are playing to their base, which want them to do this kind of thing.

00:45:45.640 But I think with the regular American, it's not something they like. 0.97

00:45:49.400 And, again, they look at Gorsuch and they think this is the kind of guy I want on the court.

00:45:54.820 You know, he's very mild mannered.

00:45:56.500 He seems to just want to do the right thing, follow the law.

00:45:59.880 So I think they're going to have a real hard time.

00:46:03.740 And, you know, I'll tell people, Glenn, watch for themselves.

00:46:07.580 You know, go at Trump nominee dot com where we've got our website there.

00:46:10.600 The first link is just watch the hearings.

00:46:12.600 And I think you'll see pretty quickly why they're having a hard time.

00:46:18.140 And but that's their only hope, again, in my opinion, their only hope is to catch him in something in these hearings.

00:46:26.260 And, again, that would I think that would be a surprise to a lot of people.

00:46:30.080 But that's, I think, what they're hoping for, knowing that otherwise their arguments really do seem to fall apart whenever they even start, because they just don't have much.

00:46:38.480 Anything in particular we should watch for today?

00:46:40.020 I just watch watch the Democratic senators.

00:46:44.580 Obviously, the Republican senators are going to say nice things, prop him up, do that.

00:46:49.340 I watch the Democratic senators and see you might have some asking about judicial philosophy, which might be very educational to people.

00:46:55.820 But I think the real thing is going to be the Democratic senators are going to try to go after him.

00:47:00.420 They're going to try to force him to state where he stands on abortion and on a number of issues, which I would guess he's not going to answer.

00:47:07.900 Because judges typically don't answer about policy issues that might come before them.

00:47:13.020 They would want to see the facts of a particular case.

00:47:15.540 And so they don't want to prejudice himself or look like they're prejudiced.

00:47:19.060 So my guess is they're going to try to force him to answer and they're going to complain.

00:47:23.080 And he's he's not going to take debate.

00:47:25.760 And we're going to have a couple of days of this.

00:47:27.900 And then eventually in, what, three weeks, four weeks or whatever, I think we'll have Gorsuch on the court.

00:47:33.800 Great. Kelly, thank you so much.

00:47:35.220 I appreciate it.

00:47:36.360 Kelly, we'll be watching this for us and back on tomorrow.

00:47:40.180 Trump nominee dot com.

00:47:41.640 Trump nominee dot com.

00:47:44.100 Anything stick out to you, Pat, yesterday?

00:47:47.140 I know that Ted Cruz was strong on this yesterday.

00:47:52.500 Yeah, I really liked what he had.

00:47:54.400 He's always good in these settings, too.

00:47:56.200 A decade ago, Judge Gorsuch was confirmed by this committee for the Federal Court of Appeals by a voice vote.

00:48:04.800 He was likewise confirmed by the entire United States Senate by a voice vote without a single Democrat speaking a word of opposition.

00:48:13.780 Not a word of opposition from Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

00:48:17.540 Not from Harry Reid or Ted Kennedy or John Kerry.

00:48:21.040 Not from Senators Feinstein, Leahy or Durbin, who still sit on this committee.

00:48:27.740 Not even from Senators Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden.

00:48:32.180 Not a one of them spoke a word against Judge Gorsuch's nomination a decade ago.

00:48:37.880 Yeah, but the problem is nobody cares about that now.

00:48:41.660 I mean, no Democrats care that they said nothing then and now he's all of a sudden a horrible radical.

00:48:48.300 This happens every single time.

00:48:50.240 You're just on the other side of the fence now, so anything goes.

00:48:52.640 If they were trying to stop a filibuster, that would be the worst thing in the world, even though they just did it.

00:48:58.300 If they used the nuclear option, that would be the worst thing in the world, even though they just did it.

00:49:03.020 I mean, it's so frustrating.

00:49:05.380 And this is why we don't like the process.

00:49:09.640 It puts us in a bad mood every time.

00:49:11.640 Yeah, I think this is why people have said enough is enough.

00:49:15.460 Enough is enough.

00:49:16.340 If Schumer does decide to say at some point, you know what?

00:49:23.260 We're just going to shut down the government.

00:49:26.080 And let me give it here.

00:49:29.100 We'll shut down the government.

00:49:30.200 We won't raise the debt ceiling until you fill in the blank.

00:49:35.020 And remember when the Republicans were going to shut down the government?

00:49:40.120 It was chaos.

00:49:42.260 It was hostage-taking.

00:49:44.900 Yeah, right.

00:49:45.940 And they were delivering a severe blow to the economy.

00:49:49.980 That's what they were saying.

00:49:53.080 Hostage-taking is not governing.

00:49:56.080 It's pretty amazing.

00:49:58.140 I mean, we've seen it over and over, and yet every time it happens, I'm still like,

00:50:01.540 Really?

00:50:02.880 You can still think you can get it?

00:50:05.040 We have audio tape.

00:50:06.260 I don't know if you know that.

00:50:07.200 I don't know if you know this, but that's what the right is doing, too.

00:50:10.540 I mean, we have audio tape.

00:50:12.420 We have audio tape of...

00:50:13.820 They don't care.

00:50:14.520 It all may be a moot point, because North Korea is going to blow us off the face of the 0.96

00:50:18.800 earth anyway.

00:50:20.500 You see their latest propaganda piece.

00:50:23.460 Blow up the U.S. aircraft carriers.

00:50:24.900 Can we talk about that a little bit?

00:50:26.480 Can we talk about that a little bit?

00:50:29.240 Well, yeah.

00:50:29.740 Kim Jong-un said if we fire one single bullet their way, one single bullet from either us

00:50:36.120 or South Korea, they're going to wipe us off the face of the earth. 1.00

00:50:40.040 They're going to reduce us to ash.

00:50:41.800 Rivers of blood.

00:50:42.960 Rivers of blood.

00:50:44.200 Reduce us to ash.

00:50:49.180 It's frightening.

00:50:50.840 It's frightening.

00:50:51.800 They scare me more every day.

00:50:53.480 I don't know if you're serious or not.

00:50:56.040 I'm really not.

00:50:57.360 Okay, all right.

00:50:58.100 I'm really not, because they have a...

00:51:00.480 I worry about the EMP, and I think we talked about this yesterday.

00:51:04.060 They have that capability.

00:51:05.340 They have 20 nuclear warheads, so they lose that war.

00:51:09.620 Only takes three.

00:51:10.180 Only takes three EMPs.

00:51:12.260 Three EMPs.

00:51:13.560 But you know, you can explode a nuclear weapon way up in space.

00:51:17.460 Right.

00:51:17.740 So, if they have, you're worried about the EMP, and EMP is a side benefit of a nuclear weapon.

00:51:26.480 So, they just have to launch three missiles, get them over the United States, explode them

00:51:33.080 above us, and it knocks everything out.

00:51:36.440 Two words.

00:51:37.620 Preemptive strike.

00:51:39.120 Yeah.

00:51:39.920 That might not be good.

00:51:41.380 That's probably not...

00:51:42.380 Probably not advisable.

00:51:43.740 I mean, they've got to be able to shoot the rockets, you know, that far.

00:51:47.640 Right now, they can't get it past the islands.

00:51:49.000 Hey, by the way, have you guys heard of the X-32A or B or something?

00:51:54.900 Have you ever heard of the X-32?

00:51:56.140 Sounds like a shirt size.

00:51:57.360 X-30...

00:51:58.040 No.

00:51:58.640 I don't know what it is.

00:51:59.560 Stu, have you ever heard a third of the X-32?

00:52:01.480 No.

00:52:02.080 Google it.

00:52:03.020 Just Google it real quick.

00:52:04.500 X-32.

00:52:04.880 I think it's X-32.

00:52:07.200 See what comes up.

00:52:09.680 A digital mixer.

00:52:11.480 Okay, no, then.

00:52:12.140 It's not X-32.

00:52:13.000 X-32.

00:52:13.460 X-32.

00:52:14.780 Boeing X-32?

00:52:15.940 Yes.

00:52:17.680 Okay, that's...

00:52:18.160 Currently up in space.

00:52:20.220 Been up in space.

00:52:21.560 Experimental stealth fighter.

00:52:23.720 Okay.

00:52:24.340 No, no, no.

00:52:25.100 No, no.

00:52:25.500 This is the one up in space.

00:52:26.720 There's one up in space.

00:52:27.660 Like the X-35 then.

00:52:28.840 I don't know what...

00:52:29.600 You have no idea what you're talking about.

00:52:32.060 No, I saw this this weekend and I couldn't believe it.

00:52:34.420 What's it supposed to do?

00:52:35.480 It's up in space.

00:52:36.720 It's a secret space shuttle.

00:52:40.460 Why?

00:52:40.780 Really?

00:52:40.880 And it's totally robotic.

00:52:44.900 And it's been up in space for like a year.

00:52:48.340 And they don't know...

00:52:49.360 Nobody will say what it's doing.

00:52:51.880 What the hell is it doing?

00:52:53.160 Did you even know?

00:52:53.980 It's X-37B.

00:52:56.020 Is that what it is?

00:52:56.860 X-37.

00:52:57.280 Space plane.

00:52:58.180 It's up there continually?

00:52:59.660 Yeah.

00:52:59.880 For a year?

00:53:00.320 It's been up there for a year.

00:53:01.800 What?

00:53:02.260 X-37.

00:53:03.000 It's living in a plane for a year.

00:53:05.180 No.

00:53:05.460 It's all...

00:53:06.460 Oh, nobody's in it.

00:53:07.480 It's all robotic.

00:53:09.120 Oh, wow.

00:53:09.640 But it's enormous.

00:53:11.400 Wow.

00:53:11.820 And they don't know what it's doing up there.

00:53:14.400 Is it telecommunications?

00:53:16.360 Is it new defense?

00:53:17.900 What is this space plane doing up there?

00:53:20.940 I'm on the internet.

00:53:21.920 Watch Atlas V rocket launch top secret X-37B space plane.

00:53:27.220 If it's on the website, I don't think it is top secret.

00:53:30.180 Right.

00:53:30.880 But you know what?

00:53:31.900 They're doing it out and open.

00:53:33.900 We're so dead inside to, oh, rocket, space, secret plane, whatever.

00:53:41.860 We don't even pay attention.

00:53:43.860 I saw that story and I'm like, what the hell?

00:53:45.940 I didn't even know we had an X-35.

00:53:48.560 Right.

00:53:48.920 So this is interesting.

00:53:50.560 X-37B.

00:53:51.480 Right.

00:53:51.900 The X program has been bounced between several different federal agencies, NASA among them,

00:53:55.380 since 1999.

00:53:57.280 The plane has been in space for a total of 674 days, far more than its two previous flights,

00:54:03.680 which lasted 225 and 469 days.

00:54:07.180 Oh, my God.

00:54:08.240 What?

00:54:08.740 Right?

00:54:09.400 This is the first time I've heard of it.

00:54:11.160 Me too.

00:54:11.840 Right now.

00:54:12.220 It's like we aren't paying attention to anything.

00:54:17.240 We have been arguing about so much crap.

00:54:19.640 What has the government been doing while we are sitting here arguing amongst ourselves?

00:54:26.640 I'm glad it's ours rather than me too.

00:54:29.520 North Korea or Russia.

00:54:30.800 China or North Korea.

00:54:32.020 I agree.

00:54:32.960 Just made me think of it when you said about sending the missiles out.

00:54:36.700 Yeah.

00:54:36.840 Well, I don't know.

00:54:38.140 What the hell is a space plane?

00:54:39.820 There is speculation that it might be a missile defense plane, but we don't know.

00:54:45.120 Yeah, the speculation in this article is that it's some sort of just spy plane, like, so

00:54:49.280 it's up there doing some sort of surveillance.

00:54:52.380 Yeah.

00:54:52.980 They said it's a platform for testing reusable spacecraft technologies for America's future

00:54:58.640 in space and operating experiments, which can be returned to and examined on Earth.

00:55:02.980 But you know it's much more than that.

00:55:04.420 Yeah.

00:55:04.580 Well, it's top secret.

00:55:06.120 Yeah.

00:55:06.400 If that's what it was doing, why would it be top secret?

00:55:09.680 That's pretty amazing.

00:55:10.760 Now this, LifeLock.

00:55:12.040 Hackers use forged cookies to breach another 32 million email.

00:55:16.220 Cookies.

00:55:16.760 I know.

00:55:17.260 That sounds good right now.

00:55:18.140 They're forged.

00:55:18.900 Are they using chocolate chip cookies?

00:55:20.180 No, they're forged.

00:55:21.380 They're forged cookies.

00:55:22.480 Oh, boy.

00:55:23.140 This on top of the previously announced $1.5 billion in recent years.

00:55:28.020 Stolen information posted for sale on the dark web last August for $300,000.

00:55:33.180 Identity theft is America's fastest growing crime, and you can protect yourself.

00:55:37.520 LifeLock scanned hundreds of millions of transactions every second, and if they

00:55:40.740 detect your information is being used, they'll send you an alert, and then somebody here in

00:55:43.960 the U.S. will actually work to fix it.

00:55:46.160 Now, nobody can prevent all identity theft, monitor all transactions at all businesses,

00:55:49.840 but LifeLock is the best at identity theft, and they're the best protection available.

00:55:55.380 Membership starts at $9.99 a month, plus the sales tax.

00:56:15.400 Mercury.

00:56:19.120 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:56:28.440 Hello, America.

00:56:31.260 Welcome to the program.

00:56:32.560 Glad you're here.

00:56:33.020 We have Conan's guy in today.

00:56:38.840 He's hanging out with Doc Thompson, who does the morning show on the Blaze Radio Network.

00:56:42.620 And he's the guy who does the Trump, probably the best Trump next to, what's his face?

00:56:52.620 You know, I beat my family up guy.

00:56:55.600 Oh, I think he's Baldwin.

00:56:56.760 He's nothing better than Alec Baldwin.

00:56:57.740 I mean, Alec Baldwin isn't going for accuracy.

00:56:59.620 Yeah, he's just a caricature.

00:57:01.020 This guy really does Trump.

00:57:02.540 I mean, he's really good.

00:57:04.420 He's good.

00:57:05.100 This should be fun.

00:57:06.100 Yeah.

00:57:06.580 He's completely bald.

00:57:08.360 Did you notice that?

00:57:09.620 I did.

00:57:10.620 Maybe that's why the hair works.

00:57:12.840 Because when you see him with the hair, you're like, it looks just like Trump's hair.

00:57:17.000 Well.

00:57:17.580 Maybe Trump is actually really bald.

00:57:20.440 No, he says he's not.

00:57:21.400 No, he's not.

00:57:22.500 And he wouldn't lie.

00:57:23.180 The thing about Trump is when he says something, he sticks to it.

00:57:26.360 He'll never lie to you.

00:57:27.480 You're right.

00:57:28.100 He said that.

00:57:29.160 He'll never lie to you.

00:57:30.000 Well, if you don't take him seriously.

00:57:31.440 Or literally.

00:57:32.560 Or, wait.

00:57:33.580 Wait, I don't remember which one it is.

00:57:35.080 I've just been not taking him at all, and it seems like a good solution for me.

00:57:39.220 Back in just a second.

00:57:45.080 We are one.

00:57:48.300 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:57:51.820 Mercury.

00:57:53.180 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:57:58.720 Hey, coming up in a little while, we're going to tell you the story about BuzzFeed and how

00:58:04.220 they debunked something the Democrats were doing.

00:58:07.700 You want to talk about fake news.

00:58:09.140 Huge fake news story debunked by BuzzFeed.

00:58:12.840 We'll get into that here in just a second.

00:58:14.760 Our serial this week is really kind of important because it is all about the war on women. 1.00

00:58:20.120 And this is what they're trying to do to Gorsuch is make him look like the enemy of women.

00:58:25.240 So let's delve in all this week on the actual war on women.

00:58:31.540 There was a Revolutionary War.

00:58:35.880 The War of 1812.

00:58:37.920 The Civil War.

00:58:39.380 World War I and World War II.

00:58:41.480 The Korean War.

00:58:42.380 Vietnam War.

00:58:43.220 The wars in Iraq, Afghanistan.

00:58:45.280 Desert Storm.

00:58:46.000 But the longest running war in the history of this planet is the war on women. 0.99

00:58:54.540 I mean, if we're to believe the media and the left.

00:58:58.040 And it is being waged exclusively by people like you.

00:59:03.640 The right.

00:59:04.460 Some, including a number of women, are not even aware that there is a Republican War on Women.

00:59:12.740 Actress Lisa Kudrow, for example.

00:59:15.540 Do you feel that the Republican War on Women is still an important issue to voters?

00:59:20.920 The Republican War on Women?

00:59:22.700 That's what it says.

00:59:23.400 Do you feel that the Republican War on Women is still an important issue to voters?

00:59:27.520 There's a Republican War on Women? 1.00

00:59:29.420 Yeah.

00:59:29.580 The answer, Lisa, is no.

00:59:33.580 There is not a Republican War on Women.

00:59:36.240 So, bless you, that even an actress in the leftist world of Hollywood hysteria, 0.86

00:59:42.560 she was so very unaware of this nonsensical non-issue.

00:59:47.260 Yet, Bill Maher attempts to explain the concept to her.

00:59:51.320 Well, you know, I think he's referring back to it.

00:59:53.380 Now, this is something the Republicans did improve upon, I must say.

00:59:56.100 Back in 2010, they were the legitimate rape people.

01:00:00.080 They could not stop talking about ladies' private parts. 1.00

01:00:04.800 Consider that quote for just a minute.

01:00:07.500 Back in 2010, they were the legitimate rape people?

01:00:12.340 Being legitimate rape people would certainly seem to imply that you've legitimately actually raped someone, wouldn't it?

01:00:22.280 Instead, Marr alleges that what made them legitimate rape people was that they could not stop talking about ladies' private parts. 0.98

01:00:31.880 First of all, call me crazy, but I consider talking a separate and distinct issue from actually raping.

01:00:40.240 In reality, what took place in 2010 was that two little-known Republicans clumsily spoke about issues related to rape.

01:00:50.240 And that was the sum total of Republicans being legitimate rape people.

01:00:56.200 But it's rhetoric like that that has created the hysteria surrounding this so-called war on women.

01:01:02.960 So nonsensical is this issue that during the 2012 Republican primary debates, ABC News' George Stephanopoulos directed this bizarre question to Mitt Romney.

01:01:16.180 Governor Romney, do you believe that states have the right to ban contraception, or is that trumped by a constitutional right to privacy?

01:01:23.260 George, this is an unusual topic that you're raising.

01:01:27.700 States have a right to ban contraception.

01:01:29.740 I can't imagine a state banning contraception.

01:01:32.220 I can't imagine the circumstances where a state would want to do so.

01:01:35.200 And if I were a governor of a state or a legislator of a state, I would totally and completely oppose any effort to ban contraception.

01:01:43.260 So you're asking, given the fact that there's no state that wants to do so, and I don't know of any candidate that wants to do so, you're asking, could it constitutionally be done?

01:01:51.860 We can ask our constitutionalist here.

01:02:02.140 I'm sure, Congressman Paul Blaine, but I'm asking you, do you believe that states have that right or not?

01:02:08.300 George, I don't know whether the state has the right to ban contraception.

01:02:12.100 No state wants to.

01:02:13.340 I mean, the idea of you putting forward things that states might want to do that no state wants to do and asking me whether they could do it or not is kind of a silly thing, I think.

01:02:23.060 All of this is not to say that there has never been issues concerning women's rights.

01:02:28.500 Women have, over time, had cause for concern.

01:02:32.040 Of course, we all know that.

01:02:33.680 There was a time in this country when women couldn't even vote. 1.00

01:02:37.640 However, that wasn't a Republican issue.

01:02:40.060 That was a societal issue. 0.94

01:02:43.300 Commonly referred to as women's suffrage, the fight for women's right to vote began around 1830. 1.00

01:02:50.700 It really heated up in the late 1800s and early 1900s, and the effort culminated in the passage of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution in 1920.

01:03:01.440 Tennessee was the last state needed to ratify the amendment, and it passed there by a single vote.

01:03:07.340 The United States was one of the very first nations on the planet to recognize the right of women to vote.

01:03:15.120 As early as 1718 in the U.S., in Pennsylvania, married women were allowed to own and manage property in their own name during the incapacity of their spouse. 0.69

01:03:25.300 But it was a start.

01:03:27.040 It may surprise some to know that in 1840, the Republic of Texas allowed married women to own property in their own name, period.

01:03:37.000 The same thing applied in Maine and Maryland, with a provision that they couldn't control the land they own.

01:03:44.200 All of which sounds ridiculous to us today, but 180 years ago, these were huge steps.

01:03:51.300 Most of the rights obtained by women in the 1800s were obtained in the United States. 0.95

01:03:57.440 By 1855, the University of Iowa became co-ed.

01:04:01.580 Elsewhere in the world, these things were unheard of.

01:04:05.040 When referring to things like abortion, progressives like to claim that since the Supreme Court ruled on the issue,

01:04:11.760 it's settled law, thus ending the debate for all time.

01:04:14.980 However, 100 years before abortion was settled law, the issue of a woman's right to vote also became settled law with the Supreme Court,

01:04:26.920 ruling in 1874 that women had no right to vote.

01:04:31.860 In Missouri, a woman named Virginia Minor decided that it was definitely time for her and her fellow women to vote. 0.96

01:04:38.240 She sued for the right, and the case went all the way to the Supreme Court.

01:04:42.200 The Supreme Court decided in Minor v. Happersett that Missouri law limiting the right to vote to male citizens is constitutional.

01:04:52.120 The court rejected the claim by Minor that state law deprives her of one of the privileges or immunities of citizenship in violation of the 14th Amendment.

01:05:01.620 Amazingly, the court ruled that while women are people under the 14th Amendment, 1.00

01:05:06.780 they are in a special category of non-voting people, and states may grant or deny them the right to vote.

01:05:15.840 So, really, let's stop with the Supreme Court settled law.

01:05:21.300 Since 1920, the front lines of this war have often involved contraception and abortion.

01:05:28.220 Supposedly, fighting for the life of an unborn baby is exactly denying a woman their reproductive rights, 1.00

01:05:34.060 when, in fact, the protection of the life inside the womb is actually ensuring the completion of that reproductive right.

01:05:43.260 In addition, it is safe to assume that just over half of the lives saved by not aborting babies would, one day, grow up to be women. 0.82

01:05:54.140 In 2012, Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke testified to Congress about the hardships faced by female students over contraception.

01:06:05.860 Without insurance coverage, contraception, as you know, can cost a woman over $3,000 during law school. 1.00

01:06:12.820 For a lot of students who, like me, are on public interest scholarships, that's practically an entire summer's salary.

01:06:18.820 Forty percent of the female students at Georgetown Law reported to us that they struggled financially as a result of this policy. 0.68

01:06:27.920 One told us of how embarrassed and just powerless she felt when she was standing at the pharmacy counter

01:06:35.860 and learned for the first time that contraception was not covered on her insurance,

01:06:40.480 and she had to turn and walk away because she couldn't afford that prescription. 0.93

01:06:44.380 Women like her have no choice but to go without contraception. 1.00

01:06:49.900 Just last week, a married female student told me that she had to stop using contraception 1.00

01:06:55.220 because she and her husband just couldn't fit it into their budget anymore.

01:07:00.220 Women employed in low-wage jobs without contraceptive coverage faced this same choice. 0.77

01:07:05.640 It costs $3,000 for birth control while attending law school?

01:07:10.600 Well, I have to be frank with you, that's either an awful lot of sex,

01:07:17.340 or you're buying your birth control devices at Tiffany's.

01:07:21.820 First of all, to believe that the United States government should have any role whatsoever

01:07:26.400 in assisting Americans to have sexual relations is preposterous. 0.81

01:07:31.900 It's not just unconstitutional, it's unthinkable.

01:07:35.020 And second, even without any government involvement or even insurance company contributions,

01:07:40.740 birth control can be obtained incredibly cheaply and, in many cases, absolutely free.

01:07:47.660 Over the years, the war on women has become a charged political flashpoint. 0.97

01:07:53.400 Imagine paying 20% more for a cup of coffee just because you're a woman. 1.00

01:07:57.740 So why does Congress think it's okay that women get paid 20% less than a man for doing the same job? 0.99

01:08:05.620 I'll fight for pay equity, to protect Planned Parenthood, choice for women, and expand paid and family leave.

01:08:13.280 Now, some politicians will belittle this as a women's agenda. 1.00

01:08:17.080 More proof that we just need more women in Congress. 1.00

01:08:20.300 I'm Kathleen Matthews, and I approve this message.

01:08:22.600 The fact that women earn 79 cents for every dollar a man makes is continually cited.

01:08:30.100 But even the Washington Post has attempted to dispel this falsehood.

01:08:35.360 They've written about it every year since 2012 and have most recently given the claim the dreaded two Pinocchios.

01:08:43.240 There's a multitude of factors to consider.

01:08:46.380 One of them is that the average man has more experience in the workplace than the average woman, 0.99

01:08:50.780 and experience is one factor that plays a big role in determining pay.

01:08:55.800 The Washington Post also notes that women tend to leave the workforce for periods to raise children to seek jobs

01:09:02.780 that may have more flexible hours but lower pay, and choose careers that tend to have lower pay.

01:09:09.900 By the way, BLS data shows that women who have never married have virtually no wage gap.

01:09:16.320 In 2011, economists at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis noted that women may prefer to accept jobs with lower wages 1.00

01:09:24.280 but greater benefits, more flexible parental leave, for instance.

01:09:28.780 Excluding such fringe benefits from the calculation would exaggerate the wage disparity.

01:09:33.960 In 2013, in an article from the Daily Beast citing a Georgetown University survey on economic value of different college majors,

01:09:44.180 it showed that nine out of the ten most remunerative majors, such as petroleum and aerospace engineering,

01:09:51.240 were dominated by men, while nine of the ten least paying majors,

01:09:55.920 such as social work and early childhood education, were dominated by women.

01:10:01.020 Again, when comparing similar education, experience, skill level,

01:10:07.260 women earn about the same as men, and in some industries, slightly more.

01:10:12.580 There are certain societies on this planet where a case can be made

01:10:16.400 that a type of war on women actually exists,

01:10:21.440 but the media doesn't want to talk about that one.

01:10:24.280 But we will, in the next episode.

01:10:28.860 Glenn Beck

01:10:29.700 I want to thank you so much for all the ideas on what you want to know about for the serials.

01:11:17.820 War on women all this week. 1.00

01:11:19.720 Now, this from Goldline.

01:11:22.040 The scale and the speed of change of China's digital sector is head-spinning.

01:11:28.800 China's internet users grew in 2016 by the size of the entire population of Ukraine.

01:11:36.740 In 2016, 731 million people got the internet.

01:11:51.080 Wow.

01:11:52.400 In China alone.

01:11:54.780 That's astounding.

01:11:56.600 95% of them now are accessing the internet using their phones.

01:12:03.700 China's digital payment market has exploded 50 times the size of that in the U.S.

01:12:09.440 So, what does that mean?

01:12:10.880 That means cashless transactions as the primary payment less than five years from now in China.

01:12:21.780 The trend is not exclusive to China.

01:12:24.040 The trend is global.

01:12:25.540 A cashless society is coming.

01:12:28.060 What does that mean?

01:12:29.860 Please.

01:12:31.020 I don't want you to even...

01:12:32.340 I mean, if you're ready to buy gold or silver, if you've done your homework, great.

01:12:35.460 But I want you to take the first step into educating yourself.

01:12:39.740 I want you to call them right now and ask for their new, updated, free cashless society risk report.

01:12:46.600 This has been updated and worked on with members of our team

01:12:50.020 to be able to show you what is happening and what the trends mean

01:12:56.200 and what this means to you, really, quite honestly, being held hostage by a digital bank.

01:13:06.020 Read Goldline's important risk information.

01:13:08.260 See if buying gold or silver is right for you.

01:13:10.200 Not right for everybody, but it sure is for my family.

01:13:16.100 The only company I endorse is Goldline.

01:13:35.840 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:13:38.440 That's okay.

01:13:40.400 Women. 0.81

01:13:41.120 Speaking of the war on women, the whole, you know, contraception thing wasn't, you know,

01:13:46.240 U.S. out of my uterus, wasn't?

01:13:48.720 Wouldn't that be consistent with stay out of my body, stay out of my life, stay out of my bedroom?

01:13:53.680 And the government shouldn't be providing contraception, right?

01:13:56.300 Right.

01:13:56.380 Because that's part of your whole staying out of your body thing.

01:13:59.440 It's your whole stay out of my life.

01:14:00.720 You would think so.

01:14:01.440 You would think, but no.

01:14:02.880 No.

01:14:03.460 Consistency doesn't matter.

01:14:04.660 Not at all.

01:14:05.300 Here's one of the problems with contraception for some people.

01:14:09.060 When you use it enough, babies stop being born.

01:14:13.180 And so you're not propagating the race.

01:14:16.920 Atheists are at risk right now.

01:14:18.940 There's a big new study out that says atheists are using contraception so much that they could 1.00

01:14:24.340 all literally die out.

01:14:26.400 Well, I think you.

01:14:27.360 They're not replacing enough atheists with more atheists.

01:14:29.860 Yeah, but I think there's new atheists that can be born every day to non-atheist parents.

01:14:37.320 No, that can't happen.

01:14:38.720 I'm pretty sure.

01:14:39.680 It's not like bunny rabbits, that only bunny rabbits can make more bunny rabbits.

01:14:43.560 I think anyone can make an atheist.

01:14:46.160 They're going extinct.

01:14:47.160 It's really something.

01:14:48.580 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:14:49.880 Speaking of human beings that reproduce other human beings, my sister-in-law just had a 0.62

01:15:07.180 baby.

01:15:08.220 And, you know, what do you do when your family member has a baby?

01:15:12.040 You send over food.

01:15:12.920 Well, normally you could send over, you know, the crappy food that I used to make.

01:15:16.960 Now, I made some special spinach risotto with a blue apron, sent that over, and they say

01:15:23.740 it's two servings.

01:15:24.700 I was easily able to split it into four servings.

01:15:27.100 I mean, it's a lot of food.

01:15:28.440 And it was delicious, and she really liked it.

01:15:30.720 And, you know, look, I mean, you score points with a sister-in-law, you score points at home.

01:15:35.220 Let's be honest about it.

01:15:36.780 Blue Apron is the way you do this. 1.00

01:15:38.660 Blue Apron sends the meals, I get three per week, and they come with all the best ingredients

01:16:10.020 Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:16:16.040 You're going to appreciate this much more if you're watching us, but give us 30 seconds

01:16:21.240 if you're on radio, and you will appreciate it just as much.

01:16:25.120 We have a guest in the former Oval.

01:16:29.280 Go ahead, pan over to him.

01:16:30.940 We begin there, right now.

01:16:33.860 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:16:55.860 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:17:03.860 Honestly, I don't even know how to introduce.

01:17:08.060 I don't even know how to introduce.

01:17:09.820 Other than that, this is the guy you see on Conan all the time, and I think he's the real

01:17:15.140 deal.

01:17:16.640 I think this is...

01:17:18.080 How are you?

01:17:18.700 I'm fantastic.

01:17:19.740 I'm so excited to be here.

01:17:22.880 Tremendous.

01:17:23.380 You guys are amazing.

01:17:24.360 I don't know any of you, but I think you're great.

01:17:26.140 And Glenn has been so supportive of me for so long.

01:17:32.520 He's said such wonderful things about me.

01:17:34.660 And on his latest book, I'm on the cover.

01:17:36.740 And that's why it's a million songs.

01:17:38.540 I'm on the cover.

01:17:39.520 Did you notice that?

01:17:40.360 None of his other books have done well.

01:17:41.880 Why would you write a book on broke?

01:17:43.660 Bad move.

01:17:44.520 Bad move.

01:17:45.660 I have to tell you.

01:17:47.000 Stupid, stupid title.

01:17:48.600 But I like you, though.

01:17:49.420 You're good.

01:17:50.140 Right.

01:17:50.780 I've written a lot of books, too.

01:17:52.100 A lot of books.

01:17:52.680 Best-selling books.

01:17:53.380 Right.

01:17:54.560 But I haven't really been helpful for you.

01:17:58.020 You really?

01:17:58.460 You haven't?

01:17:59.020 No.

01:17:59.420 In that case, you're a lightweight loser.

01:18:01.020 You're doing a terrible job.

01:18:02.340 I've always said you're terrible.

01:18:03.700 I've always said that from the beginning.

01:18:05.100 Now that I know this about you.

01:18:06.520 Right.

01:18:07.400 Right.

01:18:08.620 Really amazing.

01:18:09.500 So you were on CNN.

01:18:10.800 You blew that gig.

01:18:11.780 Then you were on Fox.

01:18:12.640 You blew that gig.

01:18:13.580 Now you're in this place.

01:18:14.380 Folks, we're in a double-wide trailer.

01:18:15.760 I don't think you realize that.

01:18:17.580 He's not doing well.

01:18:18.820 Believe me.

01:18:19.260 John DeMonaco is the voice that you're hearing now do Donald Trump.

01:18:28.420 And the hair, how much, I mean, how did you do, I mean, how much did that hair cost you?

01:18:35.200 That's four grand.

01:18:37.040 Seriously, four grand?

01:18:38.000 Yeah.

01:18:38.340 That hair?

01:18:38.860 $4,000?

01:18:39.920 I have three of these.

01:18:41.040 Wow.

01:18:41.800 And they're not $4,000 each?

01:18:43.260 Yeah, they're $4,000 each.

01:18:44.800 Wow.

01:18:45.200 Shut the hell up. 0.82

01:18:45.940 Yeah, they take 90 hours to make.

01:18:48.240 Every single hair is hand-pulled.

01:18:51.500 I don't know if he's, I don't know if you're doing.

01:18:54.260 Well, I'm kind of in between.

01:18:55.780 You want me to drop it?

01:18:57.080 I can tell you about the hair.

01:18:58.400 It's drop hair.

01:18:59.240 Tremendous hair.

01:18:59.940 Best hair ever.

01:19:00.820 Really.

01:19:01.040 Okay, so drop the effect here for a second.

01:19:04.120 Talk to me about the hair.

01:19:05.200 The hair was, the hair is, the very first wig I ever had was made by Bob Kelly.

01:19:10.200 He used to do all the wigs for all the Broadway shows and Saturday Night Live, and this one

01:19:14.120 goes back at least 12 years ago.

01:19:16.360 And those wigs are human hair wigs that are hand-pulled.

01:19:20.040 They measure my head, and then they build a frame, and then they just pull the hairs

01:19:24.600 through, and it's called ventilating.

01:19:25.880 That's why the hair grows, like, your hair grows in different direction, grows in different

01:19:29.260 directions.

01:19:29.700 Right.

01:19:30.060 So they ventilate the wig so it's closest to the actual style.

01:19:33.940 I get, like, three or four wears out of this, then it has to be lost.

01:19:37.180 How many wears out of this?

01:19:38.260 Three or four.

01:19:39.440 That's it?

01:19:39.920 No, no, no, no.

01:19:40.600 That goes to my wig purse, and they wash and style it, because once there's too much

01:19:44.400 product in it, it just, like, human, it is human hair, so it's got to be restyled and

01:19:48.640 be redone.

01:19:49.660 I need a wig purse. 0.99

01:19:50.820 Yeah.

01:19:51.420 I mean, how, I mean, you need three or four of these wigs?

01:19:55.640 Well, because I'm always traveling, so I'll go home for a couple of hours, switch out wigs, 0.92

01:19:59.340 my wig person will come by, pick them up, and then wash one or two. 0.59

01:20:03.200 This has been tremendous for you as a human being, hasn't it?

01:20:05.480 This has been, yeah, this is like...

01:20:07.380 I mean, you're hoping for eight years.

01:20:08.820 Oh, yeah.

01:20:09.280 The country could be on fire, and you're still like, whatever.

01:20:11.300 Right, I don't care, Rome is burning.

01:20:16.520 So is it amazing to you that nobody would do, nobody had the balls to put an impression

01:20:24.080 of Barack Obama on television?

01:20:26.760 They all said, oh, he wasn't funny.

01:20:29.520 I don't think he had the, comedically, there's just not, I mean, there's something there,

01:20:34.740 but there's just, there's such a well with Trump, and it goes back so far, just, you look

01:20:39.100 at his lexicon, you look at statements that he's made, you look at where he's been and

01:20:43.880 how he's done it.

01:20:44.600 There's just, there's just this reservoir of material, and, you know, Barack Obama was

01:20:50.520 so guarded that the most you could do with him was like, here's the deal.

01:20:54.540 You know, there just wasn't a lot to pull out.

01:20:56.600 Comedically, he's so guarded, you know what I mean?

01:20:59.560 But then you have somebody like Bill Clinton, and he just was, you know, he was much easier

01:21:03.760 to, like, he, there was just more comedy to mine from someone like Bill Clinton.

01:21:08.100 So did you think, I mean, because you've been doing Donald Trump for how many years?

01:21:10.860 Since 2004.

01:21:12.200 Okay.

01:21:12.840 And you, you really studied.

01:21:14.480 Oh, yeah.

01:21:15.060 I mean, you're looking at me like he does.

01:21:19.320 And sitting in this room, which is the Oval, which is the Oval Office, which I now own.

01:21:24.660 I bought the White House.

01:21:25.920 Great deal.

01:21:28.060 No one makes deals like me, I have to tell you.

01:21:30.420 Right.

01:21:30.900 So, you really have to watch, go, go to Clinton.com or TheBlades.com and watch this.

01:21:37.560 You have to watch it.

01:21:38.300 It's so funny.

01:21:40.320 The, when you studied him beginning in 2004, just because he was just a great character?

01:21:46.500 No.

01:21:46.780 What happened was, I was, I worked in the New York market, and I always got calls for tougher

01:21:50.860 voices, for voiceovers, and I do about 30 characters, full makeup.

01:21:55.340 And I got in the call, and somebody said, hey, are you doing Donald Trump yet?

01:21:58.260 And this was the first season of The Apprentice had just ended.

01:22:02.100 And I said, no, not really.

01:22:04.060 I said, we have an audition on Monday for you if you can learn the voice.

01:22:06.940 Because, so I was like, geez.

01:22:08.460 And I said, give me an hour.

01:22:10.060 And I did some real quick research.

01:22:11.540 And the only person at the time who was doing it at all was Phil Hartman on SNL.

01:22:16.780 And he'd done it on Church Lady a number of times.

01:22:19.360 So, I didn't have a lot of resource material to really, really draw from.

01:22:23.360 So, I ran out and bought that first season of The Apprentice.

01:22:26.060 It just happened to come out.

01:22:27.540 And I sat there, locked myself in my house, and I broke his voice down by elements, which

01:22:32.160 is throat placement, nasal placement, vocal production, cadence.

01:22:36.740 And that's how I kind of usually break voices down.

01:22:39.040 And then I worked on figuring out, like, he doesn't sound like anyone from New York.

01:22:43.160 So, I had to figure out.

01:22:44.380 I wanted to find a voice similar to his.

01:22:46.840 And the only person that I knew other than him from Queens was another guy who spoke in

01:22:54.880 a very, very staccato way, like Christopher Walken.

01:22:59.360 Yeah.

01:22:59.680 And Walken, you wouldn't necessarily think as a New Yorker if you hear him speak.

01:23:04.820 So, and Trump, when he speaks, you don't necessarily think of him as a New Yorker unless he had certain

01:23:11.660 words.

01:23:12.080 So, does it, how did it, did it, did you pick up the mannerisms?

01:23:18.160 Does that help you get?

01:23:19.400 It helps me.

01:23:20.160 It helps me.

01:23:20.740 Yeah.

01:23:20.900 Especially when I'm doing voiceovers and things like that.

01:23:23.280 Even when I'm doing the Conan calls or I'm, like, banging furniture in my house.

01:23:27.320 Really?

01:23:27.480 Because I have a small studio in my house and I'm whacking the mic and everything else.

01:23:31.020 But it's just such a big part of who he is.

01:23:33.160 Right.

01:23:33.340 Because it really, I have to tell you, it's tremendous, tremendous.

01:23:37.020 You know.

01:23:38.860 Even when he was on the, what was it, when he was at the CIA?

01:23:41.660 And is it, you know, I'm watching one of the news channels, the one I don't like.

01:23:45.420 I don't like it.

01:23:46.360 I don't like it.

01:23:46.880 And they say, Donald Trump doesn't draw.

01:23:49.880 I'm like, he's so physical.

01:23:51.900 And it's a very dynamic impersonation.

01:23:55.520 He's very dynamic in that, you know, two years ago, he wasn't this physical.

01:23:59.460 And he constricts his voice and he loosens his voice and he's going up and he's going

01:24:04.560 down and things he had never done early on.

01:24:07.100 Because it used to be, Glenn, your team did a terrible job.

01:24:11.260 You're fired.

01:24:12.140 That was it.

01:24:12.720 It would set up, you know what I mean?

01:24:13.980 He'd fire you or set up, guys, you're selling lemonade.

01:24:17.380 That was, you know, that was the most you saw of him.

01:24:19.800 And it seemed the more he was on the, on the campaign trail, especially with these stump

01:24:24.560 speeches, he just became looser and looser.

01:24:28.360 At what point did you think to yourself, I've got a fricking goldmine?

01:24:34.140 Well, I just knew, well, people were calling me as soon as he announced friends and because

01:24:40.100 I've been doing them so long and said, dude, you're set.

01:24:42.580 You're set.

01:24:43.260 It's going to be incredible.

01:24:44.160 And I said, hold on, let's see if he doesn't implode first, because four years before he

01:24:50.740 had run, I was toying with running.

01:24:53.580 And I remember at the very end of before he literally the day before he dropped out, he

01:24:57.880 was speaking in front of the I live in Las Vegas.

01:25:01.260 He was speaking to the Las Vegas Republicans women's women's group, and he dropped the F

01:25:05.680 bomb three times.

01:25:06.880 And I remember thinking, he's dropping out the next day because he kind of lays the groundwork

01:25:13.360 before he does something.

01:25:14.820 And he dropped the three F bombs and everyone was shocked and he was out the next day.

01:25:19.220 When he announced this last time in June of 2015, I thought, okay, well, let's, you

01:25:24.920 know, let's see what happens with the work, if the work start coming in.

01:25:28.320 And we were about a month in and he made the John McCain comments.

01:25:31.120 And I thought, well, that was, that was a good run.

01:25:32.780 That was full money.

01:25:34.820 I guess I'll go back to Austin Powers.

01:25:37.000 It was really, and then his numbers went up and his number kept going up.

01:25:43.240 And I thought, you know what?

01:25:45.140 If he can make it to the first debate, I'm set for the fall.

01:25:48.420 I'm set for the fall.

01:25:49.940 And then he did that first debate and he crushed it.

01:25:53.780 And the phone started ringing off the hook.

01:25:55.840 And by that time I was on Red Eye on Fox and I'd already been on Conan and other calls were

01:26:00.420 happening and the corporate work was coming in and voiceovers were happening.

01:26:03.960 It already started.

01:26:04.900 And then by August of this past year, 2016, I was being interviewed by the, not the BBC,

01:26:12.040 by Channel 4.

01:26:12.940 They'd flown me to DC to do some interviews.

01:26:15.480 And most of the interviews I did last year, I did a ton of them.

01:26:19.220 They always said, who are you voting for?

01:26:20.580 Which I always thought was a dumb question.

01:26:22.100 Who cares who I'm voting for?

01:26:23.420 They said, who do you think will win?

01:26:26.660 And I said, Trump will win in a landslide.

01:26:30.300 I've been on the road for well over a year now.

01:26:34.240 I've done hundreds of events.

01:26:36.680 It doesn't matter what corporate group I do or where I do it.

01:26:40.120 It's always overwhelmingly for Trump.

01:26:44.400 And what is it that the media missed?

01:26:47.580 They missed the fact.

01:26:49.160 Say it like Trump.

01:26:49.860 They missed the fact that people are upset.

01:26:54.120 They want a leader.

01:26:55.480 They want someone with bravado.

01:26:57.620 They want someone who has real accomplishments.

01:27:00.500 And someone who's going to say whatever he wants to say.

01:27:04.720 And that was the thing that they missed.

01:27:07.220 That he was, that he...

01:27:10.060 Do you believe he is that caricature?

01:27:15.720 Because people always say when they meet with him,

01:27:17.660 he's a totally different guy.

01:27:20.520 So which is he?

01:27:21.640 What is he?

01:27:22.700 Well, you know, that's a great question.

01:27:24.260 And I say to people, you know,

01:27:25.420 I think you'll see he's different in different situations.

01:27:28.880 Even when he's doing interviews.

01:27:30.260 If he's being interviewed by Sean Hannity, he's one way.

01:27:33.400 If it's Bill O'Reilly, it's another way.

01:27:35.040 If it's Scott Pelley, it's another way.

01:27:36.820 He assumes different styles each time.

01:27:41.180 Right.

01:27:41.680 But they're still all him.

01:27:43.240 They're still all him, yeah.

01:27:44.380 But I think when he's out and about, you know,

01:27:50.940 if you've seen plenty of those things, he's a certain way.

01:27:53.760 This is tremendous.

01:27:54.640 Look at this place.

01:27:55.360 This is amazing.

01:27:56.080 This is an amazing event.

01:27:57.320 I have to tell you, it's incredible.

01:27:58.940 Best of the best.

01:28:00.480 So I think what was missed was the fact that he's...

01:28:04.380 The enthusiasm part was so important.

01:28:11.080 They didn't get the fact that people were really enthusiastic about him.

01:28:15.380 And they were incredibly unenthusiastic about Hillary.

01:28:19.960 And I remember this clearly.

01:28:21.360 I was in New York, which was pretty much Hillary country.

01:28:24.200 I was doing an event, about 500 people.

01:28:26.940 And I do this bit in the act where I come out.

01:28:28.760 And basically I say, you know, there's my...

01:28:32.200 I've been told there's over 5,000 people here today.

01:28:34.740 It's usually a much smaller crowd.

01:28:36.440 But the press, the press, terrible people, the press.

01:28:39.420 They're going to say there's 400 and we're in a banquet hall.

01:28:41.900 Terrible.

01:28:42.260 And I say, listen, listen, listen, listen.

01:28:47.980 We're all friends here, right?

01:28:48.980 We're all friends, right?

01:28:50.120 I just want to do a quick poll, quick poll.

01:28:52.580 Who here wants to ruin the country and vote for Crooked Hillary Clinton? 1.00

01:28:57.540 And the Clinton...

01:28:58.740 These are the people voting for her.

01:29:00.960 It was so enthusiastic.

01:29:02.160 And this was less than a quarter of the group.

01:29:05.720 And I would say, all right, who's going to vote for me

01:29:08.460 and make the country great again?

01:29:11.800 Overwhelmingly.

01:29:12.620 For him.

01:29:13.640 And it was...

01:29:14.500 These were Clinton people.

01:29:15.620 These were...

01:29:16.620 You would think in New York.

01:29:17.460 In Clinton country.

01:29:18.060 You would think in New York, yeah.

01:29:19.620 And I remember early on I was at a hotel in San Diego, of all places.

01:29:24.200 And I'm constantly on the road.

01:29:26.420 Constantly.

01:29:27.280 In hotels, airports.

01:29:28.740 I mean, in character, I'm in hotels.

01:29:30.460 And I walked out of my room one time

01:29:32.080 and the cleaning lady said, 1.00

01:29:34.080 Mr. Trump, Mr. Trump, can I get a photo of you, Mr. Trump?

01:29:38.180 And I said, sure, of course.

01:29:39.780 What's your name?

01:29:40.200 My name is Esmeralda, Mr. Trump.

01:29:42.360 And I said, are you going to vote for me?

01:29:44.680 He goes, yes, I'm going to vote for you, Mr. Trump.

01:29:46.660 I love you.

01:29:47.700 And I said, you love me?

01:29:49.720 And she says, yes, I love you, Mr. Trump.

01:29:51.160 I want you to build the wall.

01:29:52.420 That happened like five times.

01:29:53.480 I had a Muslim driver in New York, and I was out of character.

01:30:00.000 They picked me up at the airport.

01:30:01.620 But you're dressed like this.

01:30:03.300 Well, no, I was in street clothes.

01:30:04.380 OK, yeah.

01:30:05.040 I was in street clothes.

01:30:05.660 And he said, what do you do?

01:30:06.800 And I said, oh, I'm a comedian.

01:30:08.620 And he said, what kind of comedy?

01:30:10.220 And I said, oh, I'm an impersonator.

01:30:12.140 And he's like, who do you do?

01:30:14.020 And I was like, oh, Dr. Phil, and Dr. Evil, and Donald Trump.

01:30:20.160 And Austin.

01:30:20.640 Oh, you do Mr. Trump.

01:30:22.220 You do Mr. Trump.

01:30:23.100 And I said, yeah, yeah, I do Donald Trump.

01:30:25.480 And I mentioned the different stuff.

01:30:26.700 He goes, I love Donald Trump.

01:30:28.540 I love Donald Trump.

01:30:30.820 I said, really?

01:30:31.620 I said, why?

01:30:32.460 And he goes, he is going to draw a line between me and the terrorists.

01:30:37.220 I love America.

01:30:38.380 I love America.

01:30:40.040 And he's going to draw a line.

01:30:41.240 I was thinking, like, I'd never.

01:30:43.400 And I took all these things.

01:30:45.040 And I was like, all these things were happening.

01:30:46.600 I'm thinking, this guy's going to win.

01:30:48.000 It doesn't seem every quarter.

01:30:49.660 What is the one thing?

01:30:51.060 You know what?

01:30:51.360 I've got to take a quick break.

01:30:52.260 We'll come right back.

01:30:58.340 America's enemies have weaponized the Internet against us.

01:31:02.160 Russia, far away, the leading aggressor.

01:31:05.680 How do you feel about Russia?

01:31:07.400 Fantastic people.

01:31:08.840 Fantastic people.

01:31:10.220 And Putin says very nice things about me.

01:31:12.140 Called me a genius.

01:31:13.380 But he kills people.

01:31:14.500 We've always hated him.

01:31:15.520 Like we haven't killed people.

01:31:16.860 Come on, bud.

01:31:17.560 He's genius.

01:31:18.740 Russia has now hacked 500 million email accounts.

01:31:22.580 We're not even close to that.

01:31:23.700 I think we should be hacking more, don't you?

01:31:25.200 Could this be a test for something bigger, like taking down our vulnerable and aging energy grid?

01:31:32.140 How about North Korea?

01:31:33.220 There's lots of things that are catastrophic that could happen, but also things like just times can be tough.

01:31:41.620 I'd like to be prepared for anything that happens.

01:32:37.060 Just going through your tweets now?

01:32:39.140 Is that what you're doing?

01:32:40.280 We're trying to find some classic tweets.

01:32:42.100 We're with Johnny D. DeMonaco, and his web address is johnnyd.net.

01:32:48.740 I just messed this up.

01:32:49.800 I'm looking through your site, because you do prosthetics on your face.

01:32:56.300 Only on Leno.

01:32:58.580 Only on Leno.

01:32:59.160 Only on Leno.

01:32:59.680 Everything else is just my big fat face.

01:33:02.320 Wow.

01:33:02.860 Because you look like Dr. Evil.

01:33:05.580 Leno with the huge chin.

01:33:07.740 I don't get the thing.

01:33:09.900 You know, I will tell you this.

01:33:12.400 I mean, one of the impersonations you do is Benjamin Franklin.

01:33:16.680 That doesn't seem so hard.

01:33:19.020 Nobody really knows, do they?

01:33:21.040 Really?

01:33:21.640 Wow.

01:33:21.960 You nailed him.

01:33:22.660 How do you know what Benjamin Franklin sounds like?

01:33:26.260 Wow.

01:33:26.620 A lot of research.

01:33:27.340 There are some old kinescopes of him talking.

01:33:29.880 It's Larry King.

01:33:32.000 Larry King live.

01:33:33.500 Coming to you live from Florida, where everyone passed away.

01:33:36.840 You do, let's see, Billy Mays.

01:33:40.340 That's a favorite.

01:33:41.840 Hi, Billy Mays.

01:33:43.720 Billy was great.

01:33:44.720 He was fantastic.

01:33:45.740 So, what is the one thing about Trump, because you are in his head, what is the one thing about Trump that the average person misses that maybe you're surprised that not everybody sees?

01:34:00.640 I think the fact that there's absolutely no nuance, it's black or white, there's no middle ground on something.

01:34:08.980 It's either absolutely tremendous or it's a total disaster.

01:34:15.640 That's really true.

01:34:16.920 Have you ever heard him do middle ground ever?

01:34:19.040 Never.

01:34:20.440 He never says anything is sort of okay, does he?

01:34:23.980 Right, right.

01:34:24.300 You know, it's like, well, all right, maybe you've never seen that.

01:34:28.260 No.

01:34:28.660 You've never seen that.

01:34:29.460 It's just a complete, you know, and the thing is, like, the word disaster, it could be a nuclear holocaust or a paper cut.

01:34:36.420 This is a disaster.

01:34:38.300 I can't do anything.

01:34:39.200 I can't point.

01:34:40.040 I can't point.

01:34:40.880 I have a paper cut.

01:34:42.500 You know?

01:34:44.400 It just levels everything.

01:34:47.060 Does it amaze you how he can turn on things at the drop of a hat as well?

01:34:52.140 Yes.

01:34:52.540 That you are absolutely the best, and the moment you say something he disagrees with?

01:34:58.540 It's over.

01:34:59.700 It's over.

01:35:00.280 You are the worst.

01:35:02.700 It's incredible.

01:35:04.280 One of the things I think is really interesting about him is if he doesn't, the biggest insult he can give you is, I never liked you.

01:35:15.360 Like, that's the leveler.

01:35:17.180 Right.

01:35:17.460 You know what I mean?

01:35:18.780 You did a terrible job.

01:35:20.600 Your work is horrible, and I never liked you.

01:35:25.440 It's like, is that it?

01:35:27.000 Okay.

01:35:27.940 I just think it's such a fascinating take on that.

01:35:30.820 Because he sees that as a real devastating, like, that's the worst possible thing that could ever happen to you.

01:35:36.740 Well, I think that's because he wants to be liked.

01:35:38.160 Oh, absolutely.

01:35:39.820 Absolutely.

01:35:40.340 I think it's very interesting.

01:35:41.320 At Mar-a-Lago, a couple weeks ago, there was a wedding, and he was with Abe Lincoln, the prime minister of Japan.

01:35:49.480 Abe Lincoln, right?

01:35:50.720 I'll just say, hang on a second.

01:35:52.320 Hang on a second.

01:35:52.780 I've got to take a break.

01:35:53.700 Back with the rest of this story.

01:35:55.200 And Abe Lincoln at Mar-a-Lago when we come back.

01:35:59.040 Shinzo.

01:35:59.460 Shinzo.

01:36:13.880 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:36:20.720 Look your head.

01:36:25.200 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:36:28.780 He has, you have seen him play Donald Trump on Conan.

01:36:35.420 Where else have we seen you?

01:36:36.420 I've done three films.

01:36:38.460 I did a 13-part web series.

01:36:41.240 I've done a, I did a commercial that had 30 million views called The Wall, which was very funny.

01:36:47.040 What was it for?

01:36:47.880 I don't remember that.

01:36:48.400 It was for a camera called 360.

01:36:51.140 Oh, yeah.

01:36:51.400 It's the first day The Wall opens.

01:36:53.140 It was huge commercial, huge, huge, huge commercial.

01:36:58.200 And as I'm giving the speech, this tremendous, impenetrable wall, the Mexicans are digging 1.00

01:37:03.440 under it, and they're popping out on the other side.

01:37:06.080 It's very funny.

01:37:07.420 Here, look it up.

01:37:08.040 The Wall 360, and it's one of those, it's on my video channel, too.

01:37:11.440 Is Donald Trump one of the only people that, no matter what he says, it's funny?

01:37:19.220 Not to him, but to everybody else.

01:37:21.820 Just the way he says.

01:37:23.280 Right, it's the way he says stuff.

01:37:24.840 Right.

01:37:25.480 It's the way he says stuff.

01:37:26.160 I mean, I could say China all my life.

01:37:28.940 The way he says China.

01:37:30.820 Yeah, it's amazing.

01:37:32.580 And every, you know, and everything, China's killing us. 0.96

01:37:35.740 They're killing us.

01:37:36.420 They're absolutely killing us, you know, you know, great takeout, terrible people, you

01:37:42.200 know, it's just everything he says is has, there's a humorous quality.

01:37:46.040 What do you suppose these meetings are like with like Angela Merkel?

01:37:50.240 I can't.

01:37:51.020 I mean, really what I mean, he's not a policy guy, so I can't, you know, love the German 1.00

01:37:56.040 people, tremendous people.

01:37:57.720 Great.

01:37:58.020 I've been very clean, very clean.

01:38:00.640 That's the thing he loves.

01:38:02.200 Right.

01:38:02.500 Cleanliness.

01:38:03.400 He doesn't shake hands, right?

01:38:04.760 He does, he does, here's the thing with that whole shaking hand thing when I had met him

01:38:09.800 and that part about shaking hands, but he's selectively OCD because if you ever see him

01:38:15.220 around the pageant contestants, he's kissing them and arms around.

01:38:18.000 If you're truly OCD, like someone like Howie Mandela, like you don't touch anybody.

01:38:22.200 So it's more like I'm OCD.

01:38:24.600 Nah, you know what?

01:38:25.340 I don't want to shake your hand.

01:38:26.580 I think that's really what it comes from, you know, because when he was on the trail,

01:38:30.780 he's constantly shaking hands.

01:38:32.260 I'm thinking either this guy's been through like some kind of inversion therapy where

01:38:36.880 he can suddenly not have OCD.

01:38:38.040 Because I have a friend, we all have a friend who does impersonations who is OCD and it's

01:38:43.740 really destroyed his life.

01:38:45.300 Yeah.

01:38:45.420 I mean, he was this brilliant kid and, you know, I saw him just a few years ago in Los

01:38:50.720 Angeles and it literally took him 15 minutes to cross the street.

01:38:54.780 Yeah.

01:38:55.040 He kept going back and I watched him.

01:38:57.460 Yeah.

01:38:57.820 He kept going back and checking his car and getting back in.

01:39:00.720 And I mean, it was horrible.

01:39:01.900 It was just torture for him.

01:39:03.920 So you're not going to, if you're OCD, you're not.

01:39:06.440 Yeah.

01:39:06.600 If you're, if you're a true Joma phobe, Joma phobe, you're not just going to drop it. 0.70

01:39:10.560 So I think it's more of a selective thing.

01:39:12.460 I was like, he prefers it to be this way.

01:39:15.580 So, cause early on when I was doing him, I used to like, I'm not going to shake your

01:39:19.260 hand.

01:39:19.640 That was a part of my bit, you know, 10, 12 years ago.

01:39:23.540 Now it's like, Hey there, good to see you.

01:39:25.720 You know?

01:39:27.900 And do you, do you think that plays anything with his peculiarly small hands?

01:39:35.540 I honestly don't get the small hands thing.

01:39:38.860 He does have small hands.

01:39:40.100 He does have small hands.

01:39:40.860 He does have small.

01:39:41.480 You met him.

01:39:42.100 I've met him.

01:39:42.720 He's a very large man.

01:39:44.100 Yeah.

01:39:44.500 He's huge.

01:39:45.220 Yeah, he is.

01:39:45.820 He's a very large man.

01:39:47.040 And when he walks in to a room, the room does stop, but his hands are small.

01:39:52.300 They are small.

01:39:54.500 And the hair is a phenomenon.

01:39:57.540 I mean.

01:39:57.900 The hair looks like that.

01:39:59.080 Yeah.

01:39:59.380 Yeah, it does.

01:40:00.040 Cause he, it's really long and then he flips it.

01:40:03.260 Is he covering a bald spot?

01:40:04.660 What do you think that is?

01:40:05.340 Well, his hair's thinning.

01:40:06.040 I mean, it's just, you know, it's like regular thin hair.

01:40:08.360 Who do you think does that? 1.00

01:40:09.040 I mean, I think it is amazing that whoever designed this is not known.

01:40:15.500 It's almost like whoever cuts his hair is like, look, I only have one request, Mr. Trump.

01:40:20.980 You never utter my name.

01:40:23.260 Never.

01:40:24.280 It's like a witness protection program.

01:40:26.280 Nobody knows who cuts his hair.

01:40:28.200 That guy should be famous.

01:40:29.300 Right.

01:40:29.540 He should be famous.

01:40:30.160 It's like the Brooklyn Bridge.

01:40:31.560 There's some engineering there.

01:40:32.840 Yeah.

01:40:33.180 No, there's somebody put a chart on, on, on, on, on, on the internet where, cause he, he does this thing.

01:40:40.400 I can't, we can't even mimic it.

01:40:41.660 Cause I talked to my wig person all the time.

01:40:43.080 I'm like, we need to do this thing where the hair comes down halfway and then it goes back.

01:40:47.440 And then it goes back.

01:40:47.740 And he's like, I can't do that.

01:40:49.760 I can't, we can't like get the hair to go down like for an inch and then flip back.

01:40:54.020 You know?

01:40:54.560 So we get it as close as humanly possible.

01:40:56.780 Cause his, his hair is literally defying gravity because the way it's built, it's like, it's, you know, every day.

01:41:05.180 And I have photos of him where he's obviously just a tavern on the green cause I have photos from all different years.

01:41:10.480 Cause I like to look at the, you know, see his hairstyle change, which not by much only the hair's getting thinner.

01:41:15.660 I just want you to know how weird and creepy that sentence just.

01:41:20.620 I've got pictures of him all over my walls.

01:41:21.920 In the dressing room here, there's all these different photos of him.

01:41:24.980 Cause I have to go with the little nasolabial folds here and these things and the thing under the eyes.

01:41:30.420 And he used to get tan a lot.

01:41:32.200 So he had to like the white, the white around the eyes.

01:41:34.180 It doesn't happen anymore.

01:41:34.920 Cause he had the, no, he doesn't have the time.

01:41:37.120 It's kind of hard to sneak off to the, uh, the tanning bed, you know, or the spray tan or whatever it is.

01:41:42.480 But it's, it's hair is, you know, everything about him is a brand.

01:41:46.320 His hair is his brand.

01:41:47.760 The way he speaks is his brand.

01:41:49.500 His style is his brand.

01:41:51.180 Did you see that they just, uh, uh, had him cut new suits?

01:41:55.820 Did you see that?

01:41:56.860 Oh, for the white house joint, you know, for the, somebody in the administration, um, had all new

01:42:04.700 suits made for him, new ties.

01:42:06.620 They've restyled him.

01:42:07.880 It was a big deal at the, um, the joint houses.

01:42:10.520 Yeah.

01:42:10.960 Yeah.

01:42:11.160 At the, um, at the speech.

01:42:12.580 Right.

01:42:12.840 Tell it with the ties.

01:42:14.060 Oh, his ties are too damn long.

01:42:15.820 Stop it.

01:42:16.440 Yeah.

01:42:16.740 I mean, they're always, you know, they're almost to his crotch. 0.89

01:42:20.080 Right.

01:42:20.280 And they use this tape to tape them together.

01:42:23.120 Have you seen that photo where it's blowing and you see like the Scots tape, which is really 0.92

01:42:28.580 interesting.

01:42:29.020 Like, here's a guy who's so precise on so many things.

01:42:31.480 And then who is it?

01:42:32.460 We know got cufflinks from him.

01:42:34.920 Remember that story?

01:42:36.080 Oh, no, no, no, no.

01:42:39.300 Uh, because we have, maybe it was Charlie Sheen.

01:42:42.460 Yeah.

01:42:42.580 That's what it was.

01:42:43.000 It was someone else.

01:42:43.740 We knew that somebody else told the same thing.

01:42:45.840 And we had, um, because, um, Penn Jillette's a friend of mine, Penn was on Celebrity Apprentice.

01:42:52.820 Penn called me and asked me for, uh, I don't remember what it was, like a $20,000 donation

01:42:57.580 to his charity.

01:42:59.700 Said, fine.

01:43:00.320 Made it.

01:43:01.240 Trump, when he released his charitable givings, included my $20,000 in his charitable givings.

01:43:07.800 I couldn't believe it.

01:43:08.780 Penn called me up and he's like, that's your money, dude.

01:43:12.860 But the other way.

01:43:13.780 She's going to good use.

01:43:14.560 Right.

01:43:14.760 But the other is the cufflinks story.

01:43:17.060 Somebody else told us that story, too, that they're fake and he presents them as real.

01:43:21.540 He was having dinner with, uh, Charlie Sheen and Charlie Sheen said, hey, I love those

01:43:26.520 cufflinks.

01:43:26.980 Those are beautiful.

01:43:27.720 And he's like, you want them?

01:43:29.140 And he gave them to him.

01:43:30.280 And he said, those are Tiffany's, right?

01:43:32.940 Yeah.

01:43:33.220 Something like that.

01:43:33.820 $3,000 a piece or something outrageous.

01:43:36.900 And then he had them appraised a while later and they were costume jewelry.

01:43:42.400 Which you would think, why would you?

01:43:43.920 He just does that.

01:43:44.900 Why would you do that?

01:43:46.400 Kind of goes back to what we were talking about on the book.

01:43:48.120 Yeah.

01:43:48.420 I mean, it's just, it's just really, it's just very bizarre.

01:43:50.700 Just very bizarre.

01:43:51.040 Yeah, really weird.

01:43:51.720 Hey, um, I know you've got other things to do here.

01:43:53.860 Could we, could we just get you to go through the, the, his tweets?

01:43:56.260 Because this goes back.

01:43:56.840 Yes, absolutely.

01:43:57.560 Give him his tweets.

01:43:57.880 Do you have like the classic tweets?

01:43:59.820 Oh, yeah.

01:44:00.080 What are the, is there?

01:44:01.240 Oh, there's so many classic.

01:44:02.220 Actually, I've never seen a skinny person.

01:44:04.500 I've never seen a fat person.

01:44:06.040 I've never seen a fat person drinking Diet Coke.

01:44:09.240 Diet Coke.

01:44:09.620 Yeah.

01:44:10.060 You know.

01:44:10.760 I mean, here's his, this is his Twitter line.

01:44:12.560 Wait, is there a place you could just go online to famous?

01:44:15.940 Yeah, there's, there's famous, there's a whole bunch of those famous Twitter feeds.

01:44:18.860 I will say that you do not want to have your fingerprints on Jeffy's computer.

01:44:22.400 That is not a good idea.

01:44:23.040 Just don't pay attention to the tabs.

01:44:24.300 Don't pay attention to the tabs.

01:44:25.360 Okay, this is today, uh, 22 hours ago.

01:44:28.680 Congratulations, Eric and Laura.

01:44:30.740 Very proud and happy for the two of you.

01:44:34.980 He is getting more boring, and I think that's good, uh, for the country.

01:44:38.740 Good for the country.

01:44:39.440 Not necessarily good for, for you.

01:44:41.100 I'm just fascinated.

01:44:42.200 I would love to be a fly on the wall seeing him with another world leader.

01:44:46.540 I mean, what does he say to Benjamin Netanyahu?

01:44:50.460 I mean, because his problem.

01:44:51.560 I love the Israeli people.

01:44:52.880 Love Israel.

01:44:53.680 Tremendous people.

01:44:54.840 I know so many Jewish people after.

01:44:56.500 Did I tell you my daughter's Jewish?

01:44:58.060 He's Jewish.

01:44:59.280 Eric married a Jew.

01:45:00.840 We're very close to you.

01:45:02.220 All right.

01:45:03.280 But beyond that, what does he say?

01:45:06.200 I think that's it.

01:45:07.140 I mean, the meetings, and then you just sit there like he did with Angela Merkel, where

01:45:11.040 it's just uncomfortable not looking at each other.

01:45:13.480 Send a good photo back to Germany. 0.99

01:45:16.540 That was it.

01:45:17.560 Yeah.

01:45:18.020 It was it.

01:45:18.620 What about all the contact with the Clinton campaign and the Russians?

01:45:22.960 Also, it is true that the DNC would not let the FBI look in.

01:45:30.160 I just heard that fake news.

01:45:32.860 CNN is doing polls again, despite the fact that their election polls were way off disaster.

01:45:39.760 Much higher ratings at Fox.

01:45:42.020 By the way, CNN, I think, is having its record-breaking ratings now, aren't they?

01:45:49.040 Everything that's in New York Times.

01:45:52.460 Failing.

01:45:53.000 Failing.

01:45:53.660 Horrible.

01:45:54.500 It's up.

01:45:55.280 Yeah.

01:45:55.680 Yeah.

01:45:56.020 Glenn Beck is failing.

01:45:57.320 Yeah.

01:45:57.480 That was the amazing thing is he courted me for a while.

01:46:00.760 I didn't realize I was being courted.

01:46:02.960 And then that stopped the minute he announced because we thought it was a joke.

01:46:07.440 Right.

01:46:07.700 You know, we were like, OK, well, this guy, this is a joke.

01:46:10.320 And of course, we're not for him.

01:46:12.420 And immediately the courting stopped.

01:46:15.300 And I'm the biggest loser.

01:46:17.640 And I'm failing.

01:46:18.940 And I'm going broke.

01:46:20.160 And I mean, it's a it's remarkable how he just zeroes in on that.

01:46:24.880 I thought I thought it was interesting when Macy's stopped selling his suits.

01:46:28.780 It said, you know, Macy's, they're falling apart.

01:46:31.480 Stores are closing and people are chopping up their Macy's cards.

01:46:35.660 Tens of thousands of people are doing this.

01:46:37.700 But I just thought that does he believe it or does he know that he can create that image

01:46:43.440 in people's minds?

01:46:44.420 I think that is the that is the ultimate question.

01:46:48.020 Whether or not he believes.

01:46:49.120 Yeah, I think from and from a standpoint of me as an actor, I think he believes it.

01:46:54.240 We think we've gone back and forth.

01:46:56.680 We think that as he's saying it, he absolutely believes it.

01:47:01.380 Right.

01:47:02.360 Yes.

01:47:02.720 In the moment.

01:47:03.440 In the moment.

01:47:04.080 But he may not actually believe that.

01:47:05.840 But saying it, he does.

01:47:07.460 Right.

01:47:09.000 It's a bizarre guy.

01:47:10.160 Yeah.

01:47:10.600 Bizarre guy.

01:47:11.480 Fascinating.

01:47:12.120 You've got a you've got a glorious eight years.

01:47:15.240 I've had a huge run coming.

01:47:17.060 Yeah.

01:47:17.760 Because, you know, people the thing was, people said, well, what's going to happen if he loses?

01:47:21.720 And I would say he's not going anywhere.

01:47:23.920 Right.

01:47:24.780 You probably hear more from him if he loses.

01:47:27.260 Than if he wins.

01:47:29.280 You know, and I was building I was in the process of building a White House press room in my house because I do so much stuff for my home because I have an audio studio there.

01:47:40.860 And he hasn't been in the press room.

01:47:43.680 Nope.

01:47:44.400 And he's probably never going to be in the press room.

01:47:46.920 So I'm thinking, well, maybe I should do the east room.

01:47:48.440 Well, I'm failing.

01:47:48.900 I'll sell you the oval here.

01:47:50.160 Yes, this is tremendous.

01:47:51.440 This is tremendous.

01:47:52.260 I love this.

01:47:52.920 It used to look just like it.

01:47:54.240 I know.

01:47:54.420 And then we can sell you the old carpet and everything else.

01:47:56.700 It is so good to have you.

01:47:57.900 Oh, thank you.

01:47:58.520 Thank you so much.

01:47:59.160 This has been great.

01:47:59.820 God bless.

01:48:00.240 Thank you.

01:48:23.180 At least when I was selling my home up in Connecticut, I had a hard time because the real estate agent,

01:48:28.520 was doing the same thing and saying, we're going to have another open house or we're going to blow up some balloons.

01:48:32.960 I just want my house sold.

01:49:10.580 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:49:17.020 Mercury.

01:49:21.080 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:49:24.380 Imagine how weird it would be to be somebody who does impersonations for a living,

01:49:30.480 and you're just hoping that the person you do really well gets hot.

01:49:34.720 Really out of your control.

01:49:36.180 It is.

01:49:36.600 Well, we have someone who does some impressions here on this program.

01:49:39.840 I mean, we have Al Gore.

01:49:41.640 Sadly, though, most of the people Pat does are either retired or dead.

01:49:44.860 Not all of them.

01:49:45.500 Not all of them.

01:49:46.120 Al Gore.

01:49:46.480 Not all of them.

01:49:47.040 He's dead.

01:49:47.400 He's retired.

01:49:47.980 Yeah, he's retired.

01:49:48.580 He's not dead.

01:49:49.120 Al Gore.

01:49:49.540 Yoda.

01:49:50.020 Very much alive and driving around in F.

01:49:53.160 Right now.

01:49:54.760 Spoiler alert.

01:49:55.380 Yoda is dead, by the way.

01:49:57.400 Whoa, whoa, whoa.

01:49:57.900 Whoa, whoa.

01:49:59.140 In case you're just starting out at the beginning of that series.

01:50:01.560 No, he's going on.

01:50:02.660 He goes on.

01:50:03.260 Yeah, that's true.

01:50:04.100 Then you've got Michael Jackson.

01:50:06.640 We've lost Michael.

01:50:07.860 Yeah.

01:50:10.380 You used to do a great, what's his name?

01:50:12.780 The old Arlen Specter.

01:50:16.340 Yeah, Arlen.

01:50:17.060 We lost him.

01:50:17.780 Dead.

01:50:18.680 I didn't leave this life.

01:50:20.820 This life left me.

01:50:22.820 Jimmy Stewart.

01:50:23.520 So good.

01:50:24.680 Yeah, Jimmy Stewart.

01:50:25.780 Why didn't we bring this up?

01:50:27.900 I know.

01:50:28.600 I don't know.

01:50:29.980 I don't know.

01:50:31.040 Well, because you've got a professional here.

01:50:32.600 You don't want to.

01:50:33.680 You get paid for it.

01:50:34.980 But that is the definition of a professional.

01:50:41.960 You get paid to do it.

01:50:43.320 That's kind of true, isn't it, when you think about that?

01:50:46.080 That is a great Trump, though.

01:50:48.800 Wow.

01:50:49.160 When you look at him, if you're just listening to us, you've got to go back and watch it

01:50:54.520 on the blazer at glenbeck.com, because watching him.

01:50:57.420 Killer.

01:50:58.120 Yeah.

01:50:58.660 Lawrence was in the makeup chair a few minutes ago, and he's like, Donald Trump is here,

01:51:04.060 looking up at the screen.

01:51:07.140 And Lawrence, no, there might be a car or two outside.

01:51:11.760 Maybe a few people in suits.

01:51:15.540 Maybe not, knowing how the Secret Service is around the White House now, but there might

01:51:20.020 have been a little harder to get into the building if Donald Trump were here, and probably

01:51:24.440 what he would have told everybody.

01:51:25.940 But he has some amazing stories that would be fun to share if we could, but we can't.

01:51:31.760 But, amazing insight.

01:51:34.960 Stu, would you please, look what he just did.

01:51:38.860 What did I do?

01:51:39.380 What did you do?

01:51:39.860 That's something.

01:51:40.700 I said he had amazing stories.

01:51:42.300 That's something you look at me and go, why would you do that?

01:51:45.860 Why would you do that?

01:51:47.640 I mean, he didn't.

01:51:48.580 That's a good point.

01:51:49.140 I didn't divulge anything.

01:51:50.180 You didn't divulge him.

01:51:50.300 No, it isn't.

01:51:50.880 I didn't divulge anything.

01:51:52.280 You would have divulged it by now.

01:51:53.960 Well, now I have to.

01:51:54.460 He just told us an amazing story of blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

01:51:57.860 I don't know if I'm supposed to say this, because he told me specifically not to, but

01:52:02.900 let me tell you the story.

01:52:05.580 This is the greatest thing, though, because if I ever go, if I'm ever, if they ever, you

01:52:11.400 know, capture me and they, you know, they think I have secrets or something, I mean, I'll

01:52:16.220 tell you in the van on the way to the interrogation.

01:52:19.140 I mean, you guys are ISIS. 0.96

01:52:20.360 Oh, I heard this great story about these planes that are coming tomorrow, tomorrow, 4 p.m.

01:52:26.020 It's unbelievable.

01:52:27.080 That is you.

01:52:28.200 Yeah, it is me.

01:52:28.900 So I'll never make it to the torture chamber.

01:52:30.820 I don't.

01:52:31.780 They don't need to.

01:52:32.360 They don't need to torture me.

01:52:33.320 I just don't need to.

01:52:34.300 Do you think society at large has finally learned this point with you that they can't

01:52:38.480 email?

01:52:38.940 Because I know I know it personally at work emails.

01:52:41.960 Never send a work email to Glenn Beck with a detail.

01:52:45.320 You don't want the whole company to know, because if there's another detail in there that

01:52:49.020 he wants, he'll forward the whole chain going back two years of your conversations

01:52:53.900 and everybody gets them and gets to read them.

01:52:56.060 Wow.

01:52:56.620 I didn't know that.

01:52:57.620 This sounds.

01:52:58.280 Oh, this sounds awful.

01:52:58.980 This sounds specific.

01:53:00.640 Yeah.

01:53:00.840 In fact.

01:53:01.160 Like there's something that has happened to you.

01:53:03.480 Not with me, but I've read a lot of interesting chains, I will say, over the years.

01:53:08.960 That's actually true.

01:53:11.080 Back tomorrow with what's happening on Capitol Hill.

01:53:14.560 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:53:20.680 Mercury.
