The Glenn Beck Program - 7⧸27⧸17 - When Glenn knew his company had to change

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

00:00:08.040 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:11.180 We have a lot to cover today.

00:00:13.540 The GOP decided yesterday not to pass the health care bill that they put together in 2015.

00:00:23.240 They voted on it yesterday, but nobody was really paying attention

00:00:26.340 because Donald Trump tweeted,

00:00:30.500 No more transgender in the military.

00:00:34.340 This, I would like to say this was some plan to, you know, as misdirection,

00:00:43.040 so you're not watching the other hand, but I don't think this is.

00:00:47.080 This was ham-fisted, poorly done, and the ramifications to the Pentagon are enormous.

00:00:54.700 On both sides of the issue, I'm going to talk straight, common sense, based in fact.

00:01:03.480 We do that right now.

00:01:05.220 I will make a stand, I will raise my voice, I will hold your hand,

00:01:13.280 because we are one.

00:01:15.100 I will beat my drum, I have made my choice,

00:01:19.560 we will overcome, because we are one.

00:01:23.940 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:27.780 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:31.340 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:36.140 All right.

00:01:37.320 Let me give you an update on what happened yesterday.

00:01:39.940 Yesterday, around this time, Donald Trump tweeted these tweets.

00:01:45.180 After consultation with my generals and military experts,

00:01:47.940 please be advised the United States government will not accept nor allow

00:01:51.540 transgendered individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. military.

00:01:56.080 Our military must be focused on divisive, a decisive, and overwhelming victory

00:02:00.840 and cannot be burdened with a tremendous medical cost and disruption

00:02:03.800 that transgendered in the military would entail.

00:02:06.700 Thank you.

00:02:07.460 All right.

00:02:10.340 At first blush, I want to say I agree with the president on this.

00:02:16.060 Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory

00:02:21.260 and cannot be burdened with tremendous medical cost and disruptions

00:02:26.120 that, and I just take out transgender and put,

00:02:28.820 that anyone in the military would entail.

00:02:33.660 So, on the forefront, I want you to know,

00:02:37.680 I am not for anything that disrupts the military.

00:02:42.240 With that being said, let's start with this disruption.

00:02:47.020 Those tweets, this policy, shocked the Pentagon.

00:02:54.220 The Pentagon didn't know the president was going to say these things.

00:02:58.260 The Pentagon wasn't there.

00:03:00.640 They were shocked.

00:03:01.940 In fact, the Secretary of Defense was on vacation.

00:03:07.340 Why did this happen?

00:03:09.260 Why did he make this?

00:03:11.240 Well, Politico reported last night,

00:03:15.860 the House Republicans were planning on passing a spending bill

00:03:19.560 stacked with his campaign promises,

00:03:22.160 including money to build the border wall with Mexico,

00:03:24.600 but an internal House Republican fight over transgendered troops

00:03:29.080 was threatening to blow up the entire bill.

00:03:31.740 So, what happened?

00:03:34.160 The internal fighting between the frickin' GOP.

00:03:39.560 Let me just say this.

00:03:41.960 Defund the GOP.

00:03:44.940 The internal fighting

00:03:46.960 is what made Donald Trump say,

00:03:52.400 I'm just going to say this and tweet this out

00:03:55.040 and hope to get that bill passed.

00:03:58.180 Trump's sudden decision was in part a last-ditch attempt to save the House proposal,

00:04:05.060 full of his campaign promises that was on the verge of defeat,

00:04:08.740 numerous congressional and White House sources said.

00:04:12.600 Okay.

00:04:13.240 So, to get something else done,

00:04:18.020 he causes disruptions in the military.

00:04:21.300 The military has been studying this,

00:04:24.020 and they asked for more time.

00:04:26.320 They asked for everything,

00:04:28.880 any decision to be delayed

00:04:30.540 until, I think it's January 1st, 2018.

00:04:33.920 Now, I don't know about you,

00:04:36.760 but I don't hate anybody.

00:04:39.100 I don't care.

00:04:39.980 What you do

00:04:40.880 is your business.

00:04:43.540 What surgeries you want to have,

00:04:46.360 your business.

00:04:49.660 How you identify,

00:04:52.060 your business.

00:04:53.920 But the military

00:04:55.280 is in a special class.

00:04:57.680 It cannot be disrupted

00:05:00.840 from excellence.

00:05:04.020 It cannot be

00:05:05.320 a place

00:05:06.640 where anyone

00:05:07.640 gets special favors.

00:05:09.560 If you saw

00:05:10.720 the movie

00:05:11.820 Hacksaw Ridge,

00:05:13.440 they were brutal

00:05:14.720 to this kid

00:05:16.540 because he's going to get us all killed

00:05:18.240 because

00:05:18.680 he is somebody

00:05:20.280 who won't pick up a gun.

00:05:22.420 Okay.

00:05:23.000 Well, that didn't turn out

00:05:24.340 to be the case,

00:05:25.600 did it?

00:05:25.980 But he wasn't given

00:05:29.160 any special favors.

00:05:31.920 What he was promised

00:05:33.460 was what everyone

00:05:35.120 is promised.

00:05:36.400 If you're a conscientious objector,

00:05:39.320 we'll send you

00:05:40.380 to the front lines.

00:05:42.160 We don't recommend it.

00:05:43.720 We think you should leave

00:05:44.960 because there are people

00:05:46.160 with guns.

00:05:48.020 And we can't count on you,

00:05:50.500 so everybody

00:05:51.460 in the team

00:05:54.260 don't count on that guy

00:05:56.120 to save your life

00:05:56.960 because he ain't going to.

00:06:01.340 Okay.

00:06:02.820 Promised

00:06:03.260 in the Constitution.

00:06:08.900 But you have to hit

00:06:10.300 all of the standards.

00:06:12.080 So let me go through

00:06:13.120 this point by point.

00:06:16.280 First,

00:06:17.060 yesterday

00:06:17.560 it was announced

00:06:18.720 that we have

00:06:19.580 4,000

00:06:20.820 transgender people

00:06:22.020 in the military.

00:06:22.960 I don't think

00:06:24.880 that number

00:06:25.380 is true.

00:06:26.640 But let me play

00:06:27.640 this both ways.

00:06:29.060 Just think this

00:06:30.340 through logically.

00:06:33.480 That comes

00:06:34.280 from the RAND

00:06:35.080 Corporation.

00:06:35.860 And what the RAND

00:06:36.420 Corporation did

00:06:37.320 was just take

00:06:38.000 the general population

00:06:39.380 and then say,

00:06:41.140 this is how many

00:06:41.620 we have in the

00:06:42.180 general population

00:06:43.100 percentage-wise.

00:06:44.180 let's just put

00:06:46.060 that against

00:06:47.000 the military.

00:06:48.500 So that would

00:06:49.120 mean if it's

00:06:49.920 exactly the same

00:06:51.380 in the military

00:06:52.420 as it is

00:06:53.100 in the general

00:06:54.420 population,

00:06:55.380 there would be

00:06:56.120 4,000 people

00:06:57.240 serving.

00:06:59.040 We do know

00:07:00.660 that once

00:07:01.880 this transgendered

00:07:03.360 thing came out

00:07:04.820 from President Obama,

00:07:06.780 the military,

00:07:07.840 you were open

00:07:08.640 to come out

00:07:09.560 and say,

00:07:10.220 I'm transgendered.

00:07:11.500 only 10 people

00:07:14.500 raised their hands

00:07:16.280 in the entire

00:07:17.260 U.S. military

00:07:18.140 and said,

00:07:18.820 I'm transgendered.

00:07:20.500 Now,

00:07:21.400 I don't care

00:07:22.260 if it's 4,000

00:07:23.300 or 10,

00:07:24.680 what does that

00:07:25.420 tell you?

00:07:26.400 That tells you

00:07:27.620 that transgendered

00:07:29.080 people have been

00:07:30.020 serving in our

00:07:31.460 military

00:07:31.920 and they haven't

00:07:33.780 caused a disruption.

00:07:35.500 Because did you know

00:07:36.400 we had any

00:07:37.140 transgendered people

00:07:38.080 in the military?

00:07:38.640 I mean,

00:07:38.980 it's not something

00:07:39.700 I ever thought of.

00:07:41.820 It's kind of like,

00:07:42.520 you know,

00:07:42.700 the way I was

00:07:43.160 with gay people

00:07:43.900 in the military.

00:07:44.800 I don't know,

00:07:45.340 of course there were

00:07:46.300 gay people

00:07:47.000 in the military.

00:07:48.400 Gay people

00:07:49.320 have been,

00:07:50.120 you know,

00:07:50.840 presidents,

00:07:51.620 kings,

00:07:52.740 villains,

00:07:53.820 great guys,

00:07:56.040 you know,

00:07:56.880 fighting in the

00:07:58.760 opposition military

00:08:00.020 and fighting in ours

00:08:01.040 forever.

00:08:02.380 Of course there were

00:08:03.680 gay people

00:08:04.200 in the military.

00:08:05.200 And as long

00:08:06.420 as they're not

00:08:07.100 causing any

00:08:07.900 disruption

00:08:08.620 to the actual

00:08:10.640 job of the

00:08:11.740 military,

00:08:12.380 and I say that

00:08:12.940 about anybody,

00:08:13.920 as long as

00:08:14.860 your faith,

00:08:15.920 if there were a

00:08:16.280 group of Mormons

00:08:16.960 that were like,

00:08:17.440 you know what,

00:08:17.980 but I cannot

00:08:18.680 fight on Sunday.

00:08:21.000 Uh,

00:08:21.520 okay,

00:08:22.200 you're out,

00:08:22.920 dude.

00:08:24.200 Because there's

00:08:25.080 going to be

00:08:25.560 fighting on

00:08:26.480 Sundays.

00:08:29.420 So there are

00:08:30.300 10 people

00:08:30.980 that we know

00:08:31.560 of,

00:08:32.380 and they had

00:08:33.720 to self-identify.

00:08:36.160 So,

00:08:37.160 as long as

00:08:37.880 you can do

00:08:38.300 the job,

00:08:39.580 I'm good.

00:08:40.780 And I think

00:08:41.320 every fair-minded

00:08:42.420 American is

00:08:43.400 that way.

00:08:44.560 As long as

00:08:45.460 you can do

00:08:45.940 the job,

00:08:47.040 I'm okay.

00:08:48.360 As long as

00:08:49.400 you are not

00:08:50.280 asking for

00:08:51.200 any special

00:08:52.520 exemptions

00:08:53.520 or special

00:08:54.280 favors,

00:08:55.800 I am

00:08:56.340 good.

00:08:58.980 Next point.

00:09:00.300 Point number

00:09:00.780 one.

00:09:01.680 There are people

00:09:02.100 already doing

00:09:02.880 it.

00:09:03.260 We only know

00:09:03.940 of 10.

00:09:04.540 don't believe

00:09:05.540 the numbers.

00:09:06.500 It might be

00:09:07.380 more than

00:09:07.980 10,

00:09:08.760 but it's

00:09:09.740 not more

00:09:10.380 than 4,000.

00:09:12.300 Two.

00:09:13.320 I looked up

00:09:14.300 elective surgeries

00:09:15.260 that are

00:09:16.400 given to

00:09:18.280 vets and

00:09:19.280 soldiers.

00:09:21.400 Elective surgeries

00:09:22.180 are not covered

00:09:23.140 by the VA.

00:09:25.200 Life-saving

00:09:26.620 surgeries

00:09:27.960 are,

00:09:29.000 for instance,

00:09:30.560 liposuction.

00:09:31.220 liposuction is

00:09:33.520 not covered

00:09:34.540 by the VA

00:09:35.580 unless it

00:09:37.260 will save

00:09:37.880 your life.

00:09:39.080 Then the VA

00:09:39.680 covers it

00:09:40.340 and you'll

00:09:40.840 get liposuction.

00:09:42.220 But not

00:09:43.340 for everybody

00:09:44.600 who says,

00:09:45.180 I'm a little

00:09:45.740 fat.

00:09:48.180 So is

00:09:49.100 this a

00:09:50.200 life-saving

00:09:52.800 elective surgery?

00:09:54.980 No.

00:09:55.400 In fact,

00:09:57.040 the research

00:09:57.580 shows exactly

00:09:59.380 split at

00:10:00.520 best when

00:10:01.940 it comes to

00:10:02.460 suicide rate.

00:10:04.340 This is

00:10:04.880 gender

00:10:05.360 dysphoria.

00:10:07.220 Gender

00:10:07.660 dysphoria

00:10:08.320 means you

00:10:09.980 feel and

00:10:10.820 think one

00:10:12.000 way or the

00:10:12.740 other.

00:10:14.080 Okay,

00:10:14.960 where does

00:10:16.240 that end

00:10:17.060 in the first

00:10:17.740 place?

00:10:18.120 In

00:10:18.840 Canada,

00:10:19.660 they are

00:10:20.120 currently

00:10:20.660 dealing with

00:10:21.860 another

00:10:22.400 dysphoria

00:10:23.040 and that

00:10:24.000 is

00:10:24.340 capable

00:10:25.580 and

00:10:26.440 handicapped

00:10:27.460 dysphoria.

00:10:28.740 People are

00:10:29.460 going into

00:10:30.000 hospitals now

00:10:30.880 and saying,

00:10:32.340 and while I

00:10:32.840 can be

00:10:34.020 allowed to

00:10:34.540 say this,

00:10:35.400 I'm going

00:10:35.920 to,

00:10:36.700 it's sick.

00:10:38.300 They are

00:10:38.660 going in

00:10:39.220 and they're

00:10:39.500 saying,

00:10:40.020 I don't

00:10:40.500 feel fully

00:10:41.580 capable.

00:10:42.700 I have

00:10:43.320 always

00:10:43.920 identified

00:10:44.680 as a

00:10:46.320 person who

00:10:47.440 is

00:10:47.640 handicapped

00:10:48.420 who

00:10:49.160 only has

00:10:50.480 one leg

00:10:51.140 and they

00:10:52.560 are asking

00:10:53.080 doctors to

00:10:54.000 take off

00:10:55.260 a leg

00:10:55.920 because they

00:10:57.080 identify

00:10:58.060 as a

00:10:59.940 handicapped

00:11:00.700 person.

00:11:02.020 Any

00:11:02.820 doctor that

00:11:03.780 would perform

00:11:04.360 that is

00:11:05.120 insane and

00:11:06.540 needs to

00:11:07.060 lose their

00:11:07.460 license.

00:11:09.100 When it

00:11:10.120 comes to

00:11:10.820 gender

00:11:11.240 dysphoria,

00:11:13.500 okay,

00:11:15.360 is it

00:11:17.000 life-saving?

00:11:18.260 Meaning,

00:11:19.200 if you

00:11:19.820 want to

00:11:20.360 do that,

00:11:21.380 you can

00:11:22.020 pay for

00:11:22.580 it and

00:11:23.140 on your

00:11:23.560 own time

00:11:24.500 unless it's

00:11:25.880 life-saving.

00:11:26.840 I'm not

00:11:27.580 giving people

00:11:28.060 liposuction.

00:11:29.380 I'm not

00:11:30.060 giving them

00:11:30.400 plastic surgery.

00:11:32.200 But if it's

00:11:33.020 life-saving,

00:11:34.240 okay,

00:11:35.160 let's look

00:11:36.220 at life-saving.

00:11:38.540 46%

00:11:39.980 is the

00:11:41.040 suicide rate

00:11:42.020 for those

00:11:42.680 with gender

00:11:43.180 dysphoria.

00:11:45.720 46%.

00:11:46.440 So,

00:11:47.780 anybody,

00:11:48.420 A,

00:11:48.760 who doesn't

00:11:49.440 have empathy

00:11:50.160 and compassion

00:11:51.260 for those

00:11:52.360 people who

00:11:53.480 are struggling

00:11:55.240 with gender

00:11:56.440 dysphoria,

00:11:58.060 God help

00:11:58.620 you.

00:12:02.200 46%.

00:12:02.920 Now,

00:12:04.020 those who

00:12:04.480 have the

00:12:05.080 surgery,

00:12:06.420 what is

00:12:06.920 their suicide

00:12:07.580 rate?

00:12:08.060 the most

00:12:10.420 positive

00:12:12.400 suicide rate

00:12:14.140 study that

00:12:14.780 I can find

00:12:15.480 shows that

00:12:16.640 it is 46%

00:12:17.900 of those

00:12:18.400 who have

00:12:18.980 gender

00:12:19.320 dysphoria

00:12:19.780 commit suicide.

00:12:21.200 Those who

00:12:21.880 then go on

00:12:22.660 and have

00:12:23.060 the surgery,

00:12:24.180 45%

00:12:25.420 of those

00:12:26.360 commit suicide.

00:12:27.720 It's flat.

00:12:28.940 It is not

00:12:29.880 a life-saving

00:12:31.180 treatment.

00:12:34.360 Okay.

00:12:36.980 So,

00:12:38.060 elective

00:12:39.200 surgery

00:12:39.720 for

00:12:40.860 life-saving

00:12:42.500 treatment.

00:12:43.640 When you

00:12:44.480 look at

00:12:45.100 the younger

00:12:46.180 demographics,

00:12:48.320 people who

00:12:48.900 are 18

00:12:50.040 or below,

00:12:51.780 people who

00:12:52.160 are in

00:12:52.320 their 20s

00:12:52.960 and have

00:12:53.400 this surgery,

00:12:54.780 those numbers

00:12:55.460 begin to

00:12:56.040 shift and

00:12:56.980 the suicide

00:12:57.520 rate for

00:12:58.060 those who

00:12:58.480 have had

00:12:59.060 the surgery

00:12:59.700 actually goes

00:13:00.960 up.

00:13:02.320 So,

00:13:03.060 you could

00:13:03.480 make the

00:13:04.020 case that

00:13:04.580 this surgery

00:13:05.340 is not

00:13:06.260 life-saving

00:13:06.880 in some

00:13:07.700 groups,

00:13:08.300 it actually

00:13:09.000 kills you

00:13:09.820 faster.

00:13:12.300 Three,

00:13:13.940 can you

00:13:16.940 meet the

00:13:17.320 standards?

00:13:17.780 as long

00:13:21.360 as you

00:13:21.780 can meet

00:13:22.420 the

00:13:22.680 standards,

00:13:23.360 I don't

00:13:23.780 care.

00:13:24.720 And I

00:13:25.000 don't think

00:13:25.320 any American

00:13:25.920 cares.

00:13:28.320 But you

00:13:29.000 got to

00:13:29.240 climb that

00:13:29.780 wall.

00:13:30.640 You got to

00:13:31.380 carry that

00:13:31.940 pack.

00:13:33.420 You have

00:13:33.940 to be able

00:13:34.580 to protect

00:13:35.340 your brothers

00:13:35.940 in arms.

00:13:37.060 It's not

00:13:37.680 just your

00:13:38.500 life.

00:13:40.040 It is all

00:13:41.140 of our lives

00:13:41.960 and the

00:13:42.820 future of our

00:13:43.620 country and

00:13:44.300 our children.

00:13:45.000 anything the

00:13:46.980 government does,

00:13:48.760 the military

00:13:50.480 should be the

00:13:51.380 last place

00:13:52.800 culture changes

00:13:54.100 unless it

00:13:55.820 is a rape

00:13:56.700 culture.

00:13:58.000 Unless there

00:13:59.280 is actual

00:14:00.420 abuse going

00:14:02.040 on and

00:14:03.080 damage going

00:14:04.560 on because

00:14:05.640 of the

00:14:06.420 culture.

00:14:07.280 When it

00:14:07.940 comes to

00:14:08.760 new ideas

00:14:10.060 in the

00:14:10.720 culture,

00:14:11.380 new experiments

00:14:12.460 in the

00:14:13.120 culture,

00:14:13.440 the military

00:14:14.540 should be

00:14:15.020 exempt from

00:14:16.000 all of

00:14:16.700 that.

00:14:17.640 The only

00:14:18.500 question is

00:14:19.920 can you

00:14:20.620 perform the

00:14:21.620 duty?

00:14:23.460 My dad

00:14:24.500 wanted to

00:14:24.860 be in the

00:14:25.140 Marines

00:14:25.520 really,

00:14:26.780 really bad.

00:14:28.820 He wasn't

00:14:29.900 welcome.

00:14:31.680 My dad

00:14:32.420 somehow slipped

00:14:33.360 past the

00:14:34.100 doctors with

00:14:34.880 his flat

00:14:35.400 feet.

00:14:37.100 But my

00:14:37.980 dad stood

00:14:38.600 on a marble

00:14:39.480 floor in

00:14:40.720 our bakery.

00:14:41.760 It had

00:14:42.000 these old

00:14:42.980 marble floors.

00:14:44.020 Our bakery

00:14:44.460 used to be

00:14:45.600 the lobby

00:14:46.260 of an

00:14:46.560 old hotel.

00:14:48.900 And they

00:14:49.420 converted it

00:14:50.120 into a

00:14:50.660 bakery.

00:14:51.480 And then we

00:14:51.880 bought it.

00:14:52.440 My father

00:14:53.100 walked on

00:14:54.780 marble floors

00:14:55.680 his whole

00:14:56.160 life.

00:14:56.920 That man

00:14:57.400 stood all

00:14:59.300 day long

00:15:00.060 making cakes

00:15:01.460 and pastries

00:15:02.360 and everything

00:15:02.780 else.

00:15:03.860 And his

00:15:04.320 feet hurt.

00:15:06.080 He got

00:15:06.580 past the

00:15:07.600 screening

00:15:07.980 process to

00:15:09.200 get into

00:15:09.660 the

00:15:10.040 military.

00:15:11.840 Unfortunately,

00:15:13.000 the standing,

00:15:14.260 he said that

00:15:15.020 they had to

00:15:15.600 do something.

00:15:16.180 This is the

00:15:16.440 way I remember

00:15:16.920 the story as

00:15:17.440 a kid.

00:15:17.840 But the

00:15:18.100 story I

00:15:18.460 know is

00:15:18.740 they did

00:15:19.340 something where

00:15:19.920 they had to

00:15:20.320 stand on

00:15:20.800 one foot

00:15:21.320 for a while

00:15:21.920 and then

00:15:22.200 another foot

00:15:22.700 and he

00:15:23.080 could not

00:15:23.840 do it.

00:15:25.200 And he

00:15:26.000 was ejected.

00:15:27.860 Nowhere,

00:15:28.420 at no time,

00:15:29.360 have I ever

00:15:29.800 heard that

00:15:30.200 story in my

00:15:30.800 family on

00:15:31.460 that damn

00:15:32.340 military.

00:15:32.920 My dad

00:15:34.880 said they

00:15:35.400 had standards.

00:15:36.900 I couldn't

00:15:37.680 meet them.

00:15:38.840 And it was

00:15:39.220 one of the

00:15:39.540 biggest

00:15:39.760 disappointments

00:15:40.500 of my

00:15:40.800 life.

00:15:42.560 Hit the

00:15:43.180 standard and

00:15:44.460 everyone is

00:15:45.620 welcome.

00:15:46.940 Miss the

00:15:47.640 standard and

00:15:48.500 I don't care

00:15:49.060 who you are.

00:15:50.660 You're out.

00:15:53.520 Politically,

00:15:55.040 knock it

00:15:55.720 off.

00:15:57.540 GOP,

00:15:58.560 Donald Trump,

00:15:59.820 DNC,

00:16:01.280 knock it

00:16:02.080 off.

00:16:03.480 These people

00:16:04.600 work their

00:16:05.380 ass off and

00:16:06.480 put their

00:16:07.000 lives on the

00:16:08.200 line more

00:16:09.140 than me or

00:16:10.260 anyone in the

00:16:11.080 general population

00:16:11.900 and certainly

00:16:13.300 more than you

00:16:14.540 politicians.

00:16:16.460 They make

00:16:17.440 much less

00:16:18.320 money.

00:16:19.080 We give them

00:16:19.640 the absolute

00:16:20.500 worst medical

00:16:21.860 care.

00:16:22.820 After they have

00:16:24.000 fought and died

00:16:24.800 for us,

00:16:25.500 they're dying

00:16:26.540 in line at

00:16:27.760 our stupid

00:16:29.220 socialized

00:16:30.500 medicine

00:16:31.120 VA hospitals.

00:16:32.920 knock it

00:16:34.500 off.

00:16:35.700 Let the

00:16:36.140 military make

00:16:37.040 the military

00:16:37.860 decisions.

00:16:39.100 Period.

00:16:39.980 You want a

00:16:40.560 bill passed?

00:16:41.740 Get off your

00:16:42.440 fat ass and

00:16:43.780 go to

00:16:44.200 Capitol Hill and

00:16:45.520 actually get

00:16:46.400 them to pass

00:16:47.160 the bill on

00:16:48.100 its merits.

00:16:49.440 Do not use

00:16:50.660 our military as

00:16:52.120 a pawn or a

00:16:53.240 token.

00:16:54.160 Period.

00:16:54.600 Now this.

00:16:57.280 Our sponsor

00:16:57.860 this half

00:16:58.320 hour is

00:16:58.740 Delta

00:16:59.000 Defense.

00:17:00.220 You have

00:17:00.680 a right to

00:17:01.260 safeguard your

00:17:02.160 life.

00:17:03.580 Few more

00:17:04.100 fundamental

00:17:04.640 rights in

00:17:06.280 America are

00:17:07.100 this important.

00:17:09.880 Protecting

00:17:10.440 yourself,

00:17:10.940 protecting your

00:17:11.700 family.

00:17:12.700 The USCCA

00:17:13.680 knows that

00:17:14.840 there are two

00:17:15.540 kinds of bad

00:17:16.180 guys.

00:17:16.940 One comes

00:17:17.580 into your

00:17:17.900 house at

00:17:18.280 night and

00:17:19.020 tries to take

00:17:19.680 things from

00:17:20.220 you, from

00:17:20.640 your children,

00:17:21.260 to your

00:17:21.820 life, to

00:17:22.640 your TV

00:17:24.000 set.

00:17:25.000 And you

00:17:25.680 have a right

00:17:26.300 to protect

00:17:26.940 yourself and

00:17:27.580 your family.

00:17:29.260 But there's

00:17:29.620 another kind of

00:17:30.120 bad guy.

00:17:30.900 And that guy

00:17:31.440 comes dressed

00:17:32.420 as an

00:17:32.800 attorney.

00:17:34.100 The minute

00:17:34.740 you have

00:17:35.500 protected

00:17:36.100 yourself, the

00:17:37.480 attorneys will

00:17:38.160 do everything

00:17:38.800 they can because

00:17:40.060 they're trying to

00:17:41.240 make a

00:17:41.600 constitutional point

00:17:42.720 and trying to

00:17:43.720 hurt the

00:17:44.160 Second Amendment.

00:17:46.040 They'll make

00:17:46.860 your life a

00:17:47.700 living hell if

00:17:48.640 you've ever had

00:17:49.200 to defend

00:17:49.640 yourself.

00:17:50.120 You need

00:17:51.420 somebody in

00:17:52.180 your corner.

00:17:53.060 Who's going

00:17:53.420 to pay those

00:17:54.020 bills?

00:17:54.780 Who's going

00:17:55.100 to counsel?

00:17:55.740 Who's going

00:17:56.060 to represent

00:17:56.640 you?

00:17:57.700 The USCCA.

00:17:59.300 I want you to

00:17:59.800 go there and

00:18:48.900 Can you have

00:18:49.720 the government

00:18:50.200 pay for your

00:18:51.760 surgery?

00:18:52.320 For instance,

00:18:52.940 liposuction.

00:18:54.140 That is a

00:18:55.700 surgery that

00:18:56.600 Americans pay

00:18:58.280 for, that is

00:18:59.860 covered.

00:19:01.160 Okay.

00:19:01.940 But only if it

00:19:03.040 is life-saving.

00:19:04.320 We're talking

00:19:04.800 about medical

00:19:05.920 procedures, not

00:19:07.300 drugs, but

00:19:08.760 medical

00:19:09.340 procedures.

00:19:12.780 You cannot

00:19:13.820 get liposuction

00:19:15.160 while you're

00:19:16.480 currently serving

00:19:17.520 because you

00:19:20.420 wouldn't be able

00:19:21.620 to, if it was a

00:19:22.400 life-saving

00:19:23.220 procedure for you,

00:19:24.400 you'd be too fat

00:19:25.400 to wear the

00:19:25.920 uniform and to

00:19:27.140 walk around.

00:19:28.740 Now, maybe that

00:19:30.500 changes as you

00:19:31.520 go up in rank,

00:19:32.480 I don't know.

00:19:33.120 But that's

00:19:35.340 where I'm

00:19:35.980 comparing this.

00:19:37.600 If it's a

00:19:38.740 life-saving

00:19:39.440 procedure, okay.

00:19:41.800 If it's a

00:19:43.460 elective surgery,

00:19:45.100 you have to

00:19:45.920 pay for it.

00:19:47.500 And until

00:19:48.980 this surgery

00:19:49.560 is shown, it

00:19:50.260 is life-saving.

00:19:52.080 I don't know.

00:19:53.520 And then on

00:19:54.500 top of it,

00:19:56.060 can you go

00:19:58.460 through that

00:19:59.120 while you're

00:19:59.700 currently serving?

00:20:01.180 Have we done

00:20:01.720 any studies on

00:20:03.060 that?

00:20:03.680 That's like

00:20:04.060 liposuction.

00:20:05.200 If you're fat,

00:20:06.320 you're ejected,

00:20:07.440 get thin,

00:20:08.640 and then come

00:20:09.480 back.

00:20:10.580 Deal with your

00:20:11.400 issues and then

00:20:12.440 serve.

00:20:15.680 You're listening

00:20:16.620 to the Glenn Beck

00:20:17.520 program.

00:20:20.120 Mercury.

00:20:24.600 This is the

00:20:25.620 Glenn Beck

00:20:26.140 program.

00:20:27.780 All right, so

00:20:28.740 let's talk about

00:20:30.280 surgeries.

00:20:33.960 What you're

00:20:34.720 dealing with

00:20:35.500 in the

00:20:36.640 government and

00:20:38.560 what we're

00:20:38.960 dealing with

00:20:39.720 with the

00:20:40.100 military and

00:20:41.100 elective surgeries

00:20:41.960 and then also

00:20:43.700 in the general

00:20:45.560 population, I

00:20:46.560 want you to

00:20:47.220 understand what

00:20:48.760 is coming your

00:20:49.440 way.

00:20:49.880 Before I tell

00:20:50.760 you this, because

00:20:51.400 it's bad news,

00:20:52.660 before I tell

00:20:53.140 you this, on

00:20:53.940 tomorrow's program,

00:20:55.060 and I believe it's

00:20:55.620 at this time

00:20:56.280 tomorrow, right?

00:20:57.420 It's either hour

00:20:58.040 number one or

00:20:58.740 hour number two.

00:20:59.400 we have the

00:21:01.020 CEO of a

00:21:02.800 new kind of

00:21:03.820 insurance that

00:21:05.380 will help a

00:21:07.740 lot of people.

00:21:09.340 It was a

00:21:10.380 carve-out in

00:21:11.840 Obamacare, and

00:21:13.560 at this time

00:21:14.780 tomorrow, if you

00:21:16.260 are paying

00:21:17.020 exorbitant rates,

00:21:18.620 if you are

00:21:19.480 having problems

00:21:20.600 with insurance,

00:21:21.880 listen tomorrow

00:21:23.100 at this time,

00:21:24.680 we may have an

00:21:25.960 answer for you.

00:21:26.740 Now, let me

00:21:28.940 tell you what

00:21:29.340 we're headed

00:21:29.700 toward.

00:21:31.980 This is from

00:21:32.940 the NHS.

00:21:33.980 Now, this was

00:21:34.540 from last year.

00:21:36.960 The British

00:21:37.800 NHS, the

00:21:38.780 National Health

00:21:39.520 Service, this is

00:21:41.640 what we're headed

00:21:42.260 for, a single

00:21:43.320 payer system.

00:21:44.460 This is what

00:21:45.420 the VA is, and

00:21:46.620 this is why the

00:21:47.500 VA is so bad.

00:21:49.040 the socialized

00:21:52.540 health care

00:21:52.940 system, they

00:21:55.020 now said

00:21:56.740 that

00:21:58.140 in May of

00:22:00.500 last year,

00:22:01.660 they spent

00:22:02.500 $3.26

00:22:03.820 billion

00:22:04.580 more than

00:22:07.000 they actually

00:22:07.660 had.

00:22:08.340 That's hospitals,

00:22:09.580 clinics, and

00:22:10.280 doctors.

00:22:11.100 $3.26

00:22:12.600 billion.

00:22:13.260 So, if you

00:22:14.080 think you

00:22:14.820 can buy

00:22:15.640 the lie

00:22:16.480 that this

00:22:17.720 is going to

00:22:18.160 save everybody

00:22:19.060 money, you're

00:22:20.640 fooling yourself.

00:22:22.240 This is not

00:22:23.100 an answer.

00:22:24.580 This is another

00:22:25.780 prescription for

00:22:26.820 the death of

00:22:27.780 our country,

00:22:28.600 because it's

00:22:29.840 all just going

00:22:30.920 to be added

00:22:31.580 to our bill.

00:22:33.460 Please

00:22:34.220 remind

00:22:35.740 your

00:22:36.500 congressmen

00:22:37.980 and senators

00:22:38.740 that that

00:22:39.800 bill will

00:22:40.880 not go

00:22:42.120 away.

00:22:43.260 If we

00:22:44.360 don't pay

00:22:45.160 the Chinese

00:22:46.260 their money

00:22:47.740 back, if

00:22:49.000 we don't

00:22:49.520 pay people

00:22:50.300 their money

00:22:51.000 back, all

00:22:52.060 they will do

00:22:52.840 is claim our

00:22:54.180 land and

00:22:55.020 our resources.

00:22:56.520 They will

00:22:57.100 get their

00:22:57.680 money back.

00:23:00.260 In

00:23:01.020 North Yorkshire,

00:23:02.380 hospital leaders

00:23:03.180 have decided

00:23:03.840 now to

00:23:04.680 cut back

00:23:05.360 and not

00:23:06.000 provide hip

00:23:06.960 or knee

00:23:07.540 surgeries

00:23:08.100 to smokers

00:23:09.940 or those

00:23:11.640 with body

00:23:12.220 mass

00:23:12.600 indices

00:23:13.120 above

00:23:14.280 30.

00:23:14.920 So, if

00:23:15.940 you're

00:23:16.160 5'10

00:23:17.100 and have

00:23:18.640 a BMI

00:23:19.260 of 30,

00:23:21.040 that means

00:23:21.860 you weigh

00:23:22.400 209 pounds.

00:23:24.500 If you're

00:23:25.300 5'5

00:23:26.460 and you

00:23:29.340 weigh

00:23:29.660 180 pounds,

00:23:31.900 you're not

00:23:32.520 allowed to

00:23:33.040 have surgery.

00:23:34.860 Why are they

00:23:35.680 doing this?

00:23:36.280 Yes, in

00:23:37.320 England.

00:23:39.140 Listen to

00:23:39.940 this.

00:23:40.660 Major

00:23:40.940 surgeries pose

00:23:41.920 high risks

00:23:42.620 for severely

00:23:43.860 overweight

00:23:44.740 patients and

00:23:46.220 those who

00:23:46.680 smoke.

00:23:47.420 Is somebody

00:23:48.120 who is 5'5

00:23:48.960 and 180

00:23:49.660 pounds severely

00:23:50.920 overweight?

00:23:52.640 Who's

00:23:53.240 defining

00:23:53.760 severely

00:23:54.920 overweight?

00:23:55.600 the NHS

00:23:57.720 has for

00:23:58.980 decades

00:23:59.740 had a

00:24:01.320 waiting list.

00:24:04.100 Let me

00:24:04.440 tell you

00:24:04.820 what's

00:24:05.100 happening

00:24:05.460 and this

00:24:06.360 is before

00:24:07.000 it really

00:24:07.980 begins to

00:24:08.660 collapse.

00:24:10.140 NHS

00:24:10.420 doctors

00:24:11.120 routinely,

00:24:12.120 this is all

00:24:12.740 backed up

00:24:13.260 with facts,

00:24:13.820 this is from

00:24:14.200 Forbes

00:24:14.640 magazine,

00:24:16.260 NHS

00:24:16.520 doctors

00:24:17.280 routinely

00:24:18.040 conceal

00:24:18.660 from patients

00:24:19.380 information

00:24:20.100 about innovative

00:24:21.080 new therapies

00:24:21.880 that the

00:24:22.800 NHS does

00:24:23.580 not pay

00:24:24.100 for as

00:24:25.080 to not

00:24:25.540 distress,

00:24:26.860 upset or

00:24:27.700 confuse

00:24:28.380 them.

00:24:29.160 Does Charlie

00:24:29.660 Gard come

00:24:30.160 to mind?

00:24:32.080 Terminally

00:24:32.400 ill patients

00:24:34.040 are now

00:24:34.980 classified as

00:24:36.240 quote,

00:24:37.060 close to

00:24:37.840 death.

00:24:39.140 So the

00:24:40.040 NHS does

00:24:40.920 not have

00:24:41.740 to provide

00:24:42.380 any kind

00:24:43.320 of life

00:24:44.860 support or

00:24:45.880 end of

00:24:47.100 life

00:24:47.620 benefits.

00:24:50.160 wouldn't

00:24:51.540 this be

00:24:51.800 the very

00:24:52.120 definition

00:24:52.760 of death

00:24:53.200 panels?

00:24:53.700 Yes,

00:24:53.980 it is.

00:24:54.600 It is.

00:24:54.980 It's just

00:24:55.280 the beginning

00:24:55.820 when you're

00:24:56.680 saying if

00:24:57.980 you are

00:24:58.480 having hip

00:24:59.280 surgery and

00:25:00.460 you smoke

00:25:01.980 or you

00:25:02.880 are horribly

00:25:04.140 overweight,

00:25:05.820 all they have

00:25:06.380 to do is

00:25:07.000 just,

00:25:07.360 if you think

00:25:07.860 there's going

00:25:08.200 to be like,

00:25:08.660 oh,

00:25:08.820 well,

00:25:09.060 that 180

00:25:09.780 scientifically,

00:25:10.700 that was

00:25:11.700 the number.

00:25:12.980 No,

00:25:13.520 the only number

00:25:14.600 that they care

00:25:15.260 about is

00:25:15.860 3.26

00:25:17.060 billion.

00:25:18.260 That's it.

00:25:19.260 So if

00:25:20.000 everybody

00:25:20.620 got their

00:25:21.280 weight under

00:25:22.500 30 of

00:25:23.640 the BMI,

00:25:24.620 they will

00:25:25.220 reduce it

00:25:26.000 and say

00:25:26.540 only those

00:25:27.540 who have

00:25:28.080 a BMI

00:25:28.680 of 25.

00:25:30.980 NHS

00:25:31.660 expert

00:25:32.300 guidelines on

00:25:33.140 the management

00:25:33.660 of high

00:25:34.120 cholesterol

00:25:34.580 are intentionally

00:25:36.240 out of date,

00:25:37.980 putting

00:25:38.620 patients at

00:25:39.740 serious risk

00:25:41.020 to save

00:25:42.340 the NHS

00:25:42.940 money.

00:25:44.380 When the

00:25:45.380 government

00:25:45.640 approved an

00:25:46.400 innovative new

00:25:47.220 treatment for

00:25:47.800 elderly blindness,

00:25:48.780 the NHS

00:25:49.900 initially decided

00:25:51.220 to reimburse

00:25:51.880 for the

00:25:52.340 treatment only

00:25:53.560 after the

00:25:54.340 patients were

00:25:55.020 blind in

00:25:55.860 one eye

00:25:56.640 and reclassifying

00:25:59.000 blindness as

00:26:00.120 someone who

00:26:00.620 didn't have

00:26:01.100 sight in

00:26:01.900 both eyes.

00:26:04.660 While most

00:26:05.900 NHS patients

00:26:06.940 expect to

00:26:08.480 wait five

00:26:09.440 months for a

00:26:10.100 hip operation

00:26:10.700 or knee

00:26:11.180 surgery,

00:26:11.720 leaving them

00:26:12.200 immobile or

00:26:13.040 disabled,

00:26:13.460 the actual

00:26:14.800 waiting list.

00:26:16.620 So,

00:26:17.400 you got your

00:26:18.340 BMI under

00:26:19.200 30.

00:26:20.820 Now,

00:26:21.620 you're put on

00:26:22.060 a waiting

00:26:22.500 list.

00:26:23.900 You have

00:26:24.300 11 months

00:26:25.260 to wait

00:26:25.820 for a

00:26:26.740 hip,

00:26:27.460 12 months

00:26:28.500 to wait

00:26:28.980 for a

00:26:29.380 knee.

00:26:30.080 That compares

00:26:31.040 in the United

00:26:31.660 States to

00:26:32.340 this broken

00:26:32.960 awful system

00:26:33.860 of three

00:26:34.980 to four

00:26:35.580 weeks for

00:26:36.880 both hips

00:26:37.480 and knees.

00:26:38.240 one in

00:26:40.320 four Britons

00:26:41.280 with cancer

00:26:42.520 are denied

00:26:43.960 treatment

00:26:44.780 with the

00:26:45.960 latest drugs

00:26:46.860 proven to

00:26:47.960 extend their

00:26:48.540 life.

00:26:49.440 One in

00:26:50.020 four.

00:26:51.460 Those who

00:26:52.000 seek to pay

00:26:52.540 for such

00:26:52.980 drugs on

00:26:53.500 their own

00:26:53.980 are expelled

00:26:55.220 from the

00:26:56.140 system for

00:26:57.420 making the

00:26:57.980 government look

00:26:58.680 bad.

00:26:59.420 They're forced

00:26:59.860 to pay for

00:27:00.860 the entirety

00:27:02.100 of the rest

00:27:04.320 for the rest

00:27:05.120 of their lives

00:27:05.940 of all costs.

00:27:07.560 so you

00:27:08.880 can't say

00:27:09.720 okay well

00:27:10.340 I'll pay

00:27:10.960 for that.

00:27:11.800 You guys

00:27:12.060 just pay

00:27:12.440 for what's

00:27:12.900 covered.

00:27:13.680 If you

00:27:14.440 say I'm

00:27:15.280 going to

00:27:15.500 pay for

00:27:15.940 this drug

00:27:16.720 myself,

00:27:18.240 you are

00:27:18.600 then spit

00:27:19.260 out of the

00:27:19.760 system and

00:27:20.740 you must

00:27:21.200 pay every

00:27:21.900 dime for

00:27:22.780 everything you

00:27:23.560 do for

00:27:24.260 the rest

00:27:24.700 of your

00:27:25.000 life.

00:27:26.960 A Britons

00:27:27.360 diagnosed with

00:27:28.020 cancer and

00:27:28.600 heart attacks

00:27:29.180 are more

00:27:29.700 likely to

00:27:30.280 die and

00:27:30.840 more quickly

00:27:31.520 than those

00:27:32.140 in other

00:27:32.680 developed

00:27:33.140 nations.

00:27:34.220 Britain's

00:27:34.520 survival rates

00:27:35.240 for heart

00:27:36.020 disease and

00:27:36.880 cancer

00:27:37.420 are little

00:27:38.560 better than

00:27:39.660 former

00:27:40.220 communist

00:27:40.820 countries.

00:27:43.600 That's

00:27:44.280 where we're

00:27:45.120 headed gang.

00:27:47.380 So what

00:27:48.380 did Congress

00:27:49.020 do yesterday?

00:27:51.380 They didn't

00:27:52.440 call for a

00:27:53.680 full repeal of

00:27:54.820 this socialized

00:27:55.860 medicine that

00:27:56.640 we're headed

00:27:57.060 towards.

00:27:57.580 This is what

00:27:58.580 we're going

00:27:59.140 to get

00:27:59.600 because the

00:28:00.980 system that

00:28:02.140 we have

00:28:02.940 under the

00:28:03.460 ACA does

00:28:04.540 not work.

00:28:06.560 Okay, so

00:28:07.460 what do we

00:28:07.760 do?

00:28:09.320 Common sense

00:28:10.160 would tell

00:28:10.600 us let's

00:28:12.440 super serve

00:28:13.520 the people

00:28:14.660 that we

00:28:15.220 have.

00:28:16.160 You're

00:28:16.840 between jobs

00:28:17.820 and you

00:28:18.320 have no

00:28:19.320 insurance and

00:28:20.140 your company

00:28:20.820 has gone out

00:28:21.860 of business

00:28:22.380 so there is

00:28:23.320 no COBRA.

00:28:25.040 Okay, let's

00:28:26.600 make it easy

00:28:27.300 to get on to

00:28:28.260 Medicare or

00:28:29.120 Medicaid

00:28:29.560 right now

00:28:31.160 so you can

00:28:32.520 get into

00:28:33.200 the system

00:28:33.740 and have

00:28:34.600 that bridge

00:28:35.300 of four or

00:28:35.900 five months

00:28:36.460 while you're

00:28:37.100 unemployed.

00:28:37.880 The minute

00:28:38.640 you're employed

00:28:39.460 and your

00:28:40.040 health care

00:28:40.500 system kicks

00:28:41.720 in, you're

00:28:42.600 out.

00:28:44.320 Why is it

00:28:45.260 so hard to

00:28:45.700 do that?

00:28:47.040 If you

00:28:47.960 have a

00:28:48.360 pre-existing

00:28:48.900 condition and

00:28:50.160 no one will

00:28:51.060 cover this,

00:28:52.920 then you

00:28:54.000 can get on

00:28:54.640 to Medicare

00:28:55.160 or Medicaid

00:28:55.800 and you can

00:28:56.800 get that

00:28:57.720 treatment that

00:28:59.060 you need.

00:29:01.360 Not

00:29:01.960 experimental

00:29:02.700 because we

00:29:04.320 can't afford

00:29:04.980 it.

00:29:06.620 But we

00:29:07.420 must be

00:29:08.360 able to do

00:29:09.240 experiments.

00:29:10.560 We must be

00:29:11.240 able to

00:29:11.680 develop new

00:29:12.320 medicines and

00:29:13.300 the only way

00:29:13.960 to do that

00:29:14.500 is with a

00:29:15.000 free market.

00:29:16.580 There's no

00:29:17.000 new medicines

00:29:17.620 for cancer

00:29:18.260 coming out of

00:29:18.900 Great Britain

00:29:19.400 because they

00:29:20.460 won't pay

00:29:21.140 for them.

00:29:23.800 If we go

00:29:24.820 to a single

00:29:25.480 payer system,

00:29:26.540 you won't

00:29:27.380 pay for

00:29:28.620 experimental

00:29:29.540 treatments

00:29:30.220 because there

00:29:31.160 will be no

00:29:31.980 one to

00:29:32.560 pay for

00:29:33.180 it.

00:29:36.760 We know

00:29:37.560 that there

00:29:37.880 are people

00:29:38.340 that are

00:29:38.660 clogging up

00:29:39.160 there.

00:29:39.340 Nobody's

00:29:39.660 dying on

00:29:39.940 the streets

00:29:40.260 here.

00:29:41.240 We know

00:29:41.900 that there

00:29:42.180 are people

00:29:42.480 that are

00:29:42.760 clogging

00:29:43.220 up the

00:29:44.140 hospitals,

00:29:45.180 the ERs,

00:29:45.860 because they're

00:29:46.200 using those

00:29:47.080 as clinics.

00:29:48.520 Good.

00:29:49.320 Let's get

00:29:50.120 them Medicare

00:29:51.580 coverage,

00:29:53.420 not at the

00:29:54.000 hospitals unless

00:29:55.040 it's an

00:29:55.460 emergency,

00:29:55.920 but instead

00:29:56.980 at an

00:29:57.900 urgent care

00:29:58.660 center,

00:29:59.560 at a

00:29:59.880 clinic in

00:30:02.080 our towns.

00:30:03.320 Let's get

00:30:04.220 that done

00:30:05.100 and provide

00:30:06.120 them clean,

00:30:07.120 good,

00:30:08.040 basic care.

00:30:09.660 These problems

00:30:10.660 are really

00:30:11.340 easy, but

00:30:12.540 what they're

00:30:12.900 trying to do

00:30:13.760 is they're

00:30:14.900 trying to

00:30:15.440 make themselves

00:30:16.320 rich,

00:30:17.320 they're trying

00:30:17.780 to make

00:30:18.240 themselves

00:30:18.780 powerful,

00:30:20.000 and they're

00:30:20.460 trying to

00:30:21.520 fix problems

00:30:24.120 that don't

00:30:25.100 exist.

00:30:26.180 And by

00:30:26.480 doing that,

00:30:28.280 what they're

00:30:28.760 doing is

00:30:29.340 they're causing

00:30:29.880 more problems,

00:30:31.660 and they're

00:30:32.020 causing your

00:30:32.720 premiums to

00:30:33.520 go up.

00:30:34.140 They're causing

00:30:34.600 your deductible

00:30:35.500 to be

00:30:35.980 absolutely

00:30:36.780 outrageous.

00:30:38.060 Let's see,

00:30:38.560 I can pay

00:30:39.020 $1,500,

00:30:40.640 and then,

00:30:41.780 I can pay

00:30:42.580 that every

00:30:42.980 month,

00:30:43.480 and then,

00:30:44.580 if I spend

00:30:46.100 more than

00:30:46.800 $10,000,

00:30:48.320 then it'll

00:30:49.580 kick in.

00:30:50.320 So I've

00:30:50.820 got to pay

00:30:51.640 $1,500 a

00:30:53.600 month,

00:30:54.220 plus the

00:30:55.440 $10,000 of

00:30:57.140 medical cost.

00:30:58.420 I don't have

00:30:59.000 the money to

00:30:59.640 go take my

00:31:00.220 kid to go

00:31:00.800 have an ear

00:31:01.680 infection treated,

00:31:03.320 because I'm

00:31:03.860 spending it on

00:31:04.480 the $1,500 a

00:31:06.520 month for in

00:31:07.720 case they have

00:31:08.480 cancer or a

00:31:09.420 broken leg.

00:31:10.900 And I don't

00:31:11.260 even know if a

00:31:11.780 broken leg would

00:31:12.640 fit into that

00:31:14.500 at $10,000 if I

00:31:15.800 haven't spent

00:31:16.420 anything.

00:31:17.400 It's almost

00:31:17.840 like kids.

00:31:18.840 I need everybody

00:31:19.560 to break an arm

00:31:20.500 January 1st.

00:31:21.840 We're all going

00:31:22.500 to the hospital.

00:31:23.600 I mean,

00:31:24.700 it's crazy.

00:31:25.840 It's absolutely

00:31:26.940 crazy.

00:31:29.280 There is a

00:31:30.280 solution.

00:31:31.560 Tomorrow on

00:31:32.160 this program,

00:31:32.720 we're going to

00:31:33.160 show you

00:31:33.780 somebody who

00:31:35.060 has started a

00:31:35.860 company for a

00:31:37.080 carve-out,

00:31:37.980 and it might

00:31:39.080 help save your

00:31:39.960 family a lot of

00:31:40.840 money, and we'll

00:31:41.340 do that on

00:31:42.080 tomorrow's program.

00:31:43.500 In 15 minutes,

00:31:44.840 I'm going to

00:31:45.360 give you another

00:31:45.980 solution, one

00:31:47.960 that the

00:31:48.280 politicians won't

00:31:49.280 like, but it's

00:31:50.540 high time we

00:31:51.800 make up our

00:31:52.540 mind.

00:31:53.760 Also, at the

00:31:54.620 end of the

00:31:55.160 program, the

00:31:57.560 last hour, is

00:31:58.540 the author of

00:31:59.560 Friction.

00:32:00.760 This is an

00:32:01.580 incredible book

00:32:03.140 that I think can

00:32:04.060 be applied not

00:32:05.840 just in business,

00:32:06.720 but all over.

00:32:07.360 But if you are a

00:32:08.460 business person, you

00:32:09.540 are a manager, you

00:32:11.040 own your own

00:32:11.800 company, you are

00:32:14.260 running your own

00:32:15.460 family, I want you

00:32:17.540 to read this book

00:32:18.240 Friction.

00:32:19.160 The author is on

00:32:20.260 with us in hour

00:32:21.880 number three.

00:32:23.000 I had dinner with

00:32:23.820 him last night.

00:32:24.540 He is fascinating,

00:32:25.840 and I think we'll

00:32:27.220 really be able to

00:32:27.880 help you out,

00:32:28.440 especially if you

00:32:29.400 run a business or

00:32:30.660 manage a business.

00:32:33.220 All coming up

00:32:34.180 right now,

00:32:35.140 Simply Safe.

00:32:36.740 Burglars love

00:32:38.400 this time of year

00:32:39.340 because you're gone

00:32:40.320 on vacation.

00:32:41.740 You're at an

00:32:42.360 amusement park with

00:32:43.180 the kids.

00:32:43.880 You know that

00:32:44.340 burglars usually

00:32:45.220 don't come at night,

00:32:46.020 and especially

00:32:47.740 Texas because

00:32:48.620 they know usually

00:32:50.060 somebody has a

00:32:50.820 gun at home.

00:32:52.240 They don't want

00:32:52.640 to run into you

00:32:53.320 just like you

00:32:53.780 don't want to

00:32:54.100 run into them.

00:32:54.920 They are not

00:32:55.680 looking for an

00:32:56.380 encounter with

00:32:57.100 you.

00:32:57.820 If somebody comes

00:32:58.840 into your house

00:32:59.480 at night, they

00:33:01.440 either don't know

00:33:02.660 that you're home

00:33:03.360 or they have much

00:33:05.520 worse intent than

00:33:07.340 just stealing

00:33:08.320 something.

00:33:09.160 So they love it.

00:33:09.860 You go on vacation

00:33:10.640 or you go take the

00:33:11.500 kids out to the

00:33:12.500 amusement park, that's

00:33:13.920 when your home is

00:33:14.600 empty and it's

00:33:15.280 most vulnerable

00:33:15.980 during the day.

00:34:44.580 Hello, America.

00:34:46.240 I'm so glad you're here.

00:34:48.980 Let's look at, is there

00:34:50.060 anything fun to, you

00:34:53.420 know, talk about here in

00:34:54.380 the remaining minutes of

00:34:55.380 this hour?

00:34:55.680 No, no, there's not

00:34:56.580 anything fun at all.

00:34:57.660 I was looking at this

00:34:58.720 weight chart that's got

00:35:01.360 healthy weight, overweight

00:35:02.720 and obese for BMI.

00:35:04.540 You know, the lowest

00:35:05.420 weight I've ever been in

00:35:06.480 my life, the lowest

00:35:07.700 weight, I'm still

00:35:09.340 overweight.

00:35:10.960 What was the lowest

00:35:11.780 weight?

00:35:12.040 How tall are you?

00:35:13.520 6'2", 6'1".

00:35:14.860 So what was the lowest

00:35:16.320 weight you've ever been

00:35:17.120 at?

00:35:18.860 200.

00:35:19.780 200.

00:35:20.420 That's the lowest

00:35:20.960 weight.

00:35:21.380 Is that when you were

00:35:22.000 born?

00:35:22.680 Yes.

00:35:22.980 So you should have

00:35:24.020 been born at

00:35:25.520 overweight.

00:35:26.660 That's correct.

00:35:27.000 200.

00:35:28.920 And you were a

00:35:30.020 football player.

00:35:30.740 I was.

00:35:31.500 Okay, so at 200.

00:35:33.260 But that's not, I

00:35:34.080 wasn't that weight when

00:35:34.820 I was playing football.

00:35:36.400 Okay.

00:35:36.820 At 200 pounds, that

00:35:37.740 was with the help of

00:35:38.880 cocaine?

00:35:41.460 That was part of it.

00:35:43.960 Okay.

00:35:45.140 So what does it say

00:35:46.640 you should be?

00:35:47.840 160?

00:35:48.320 No, that's right

00:35:48.800 around, yeah, well,

00:35:50.000 180, 186, 190.

00:35:53.400 Okay, so I'm, okay,

00:35:55.260 because my lowest

00:35:56.220 weight was 180, and

00:35:58.000 that's when I was a

00:35:58.680 kid, and I looked like

00:36:00.140 a stick.

00:36:00.960 And they say that's

00:36:01.740 to your healthy.

00:36:02.500 Yeah.

00:36:02.880 When I was on CNN,

00:36:06.080 and then after I left

00:36:08.120 Fox, my weight was

00:36:10.380 205, and every time

00:36:13.200 people met me in

00:36:14.720 person, they were

00:36:15.200 like, good God, man,

00:36:16.580 have a sandwich.

00:36:18.020 Yeah, there's a way

00:36:18.880 that we have, I mean,

00:36:19.800 we have several pictures

00:36:20.580 of you during the CNN

00:36:21.700 days, pre-CNN headline

00:36:23.440 news days.

00:36:24.100 Yeah, and it was, it

00:36:25.000 was, yeah, real thin,

00:36:27.120 and everybody would say

00:36:29.460 you got to, don't,

00:36:30.540 you're not losing any

00:36:31.220 more weight because you

00:36:31.980 are, are you sick?

00:36:33.620 That's when you believed

00:36:34.400 that because you were on

00:36:35.580 TV, you needed to be

00:36:36.420 thin.

00:36:36.820 Yeah, I know.

00:36:37.560 I've so long since

00:36:38.780 lost that.

00:36:39.580 But, but here's the

00:36:40.300 thing, that's at 205,

00:36:43.140 180 to 190 is where

00:36:45.660 I'm, quote, healthy.

00:36:46.740 Right.

00:36:47.160 I don't know how

00:36:47.600 you have any muscle

00:36:48.480 mass at 180 and 6'2".

00:36:51.780 I mean, that's crazy.

00:36:54.040 But this is the

00:36:55.360 beginning of the

00:36:56.140 rationing.

00:36:57.560 Again, in Britain,

00:37:00.380 you're 5'5 and 180

00:37:03.720 pounds.

00:37:04.360 You ain't getting

00:37:04.780 surgery because you're

00:37:07.300 obese.

00:37:07.980 Right.

00:37:08.480 And we can't afford

00:37:09.620 you because you may

00:37:10.620 not make it.

00:37:12.440 This is the Glenn

00:37:14.280 Beck Program.

00:37:15.400 Mercury.

00:37:31.540 The Blaze Radio Network.

00:37:36.220 On demand.

00:37:37.120 Hello, America.

00:37:40.860 Welcome to the

00:37:41.400 Glenn Beck Program.

00:37:42.300 So glad that you're

00:37:42.880 here today.

00:37:43.920 I want to start on

00:37:45.600 what's happening in the

00:37:47.020 Senate with Obamacare.

00:37:48.920 And I don't care about

00:37:50.580 the players.

00:37:51.360 I don't care who's on

00:37:52.460 board, who's not on

00:37:53.420 board.

00:37:53.920 I don't care about any

00:37:54.780 of that because that

00:37:56.120 doesn't affect my life and

00:37:57.180 I don't think it affects

00:37:57.920 yours.

00:38:00.000 What they're doing or

00:38:02.440 failing to do actually

00:38:04.320 does affect your life.

00:38:06.680 So what do we do besides

00:38:08.200 just look at this

00:38:09.640 information rolling out

00:38:10.820 in the news and get

00:38:11.700 pissed off about it?

00:38:13.100 We begin there right

00:38:14.100 now.

00:38:14.380 I will make a stand.

00:38:17.880 I will raise my voice.

00:38:20.060 I will hold your hand.

00:38:22.480 Because we are one.

00:38:24.300 I will beat my drum.

00:38:26.520 I have made my choice.

00:38:28.780 We will overcome.

00:38:30.180 Because we are one.

00:38:32.860 The fusion of

00:38:34.220 entertainment and

00:38:35.540 enlightenment.

00:38:36.940 This is the Glenn Beck

00:38:39.480 Program.

00:38:43.520 So here's the headline

00:38:45.180 today.

00:38:45.600 Trump urges the GOP

00:38:47.020 senators to pass skinny

00:38:48.860 Obamacare repeal bill.

00:38:51.420 What does this mean?

00:38:52.720 This means that they have

00:38:54.440 tried for several times to

00:38:56.540 pass any kind of health

00:38:58.400 care reform and they

00:39:01.040 can't get anybody to

00:39:02.160 agree on it.

00:39:03.660 And so now they're

00:39:04.520 saying okay let's just

00:39:05.920 repeal just a couple of

00:39:07.040 parts of it.

00:39:07.980 And today is the day.

00:39:10.280 This morning President

00:39:11.960 Obama tweeted to the

00:39:14.300 GOP.

00:39:15.140 Is he still president or

00:39:16.120 did he come back?

00:39:16.980 I may have missed a

00:39:18.060 headline.

00:39:18.480 He's still president.

00:39:19.400 Here it is.

00:39:20.380 You said President

00:39:21.980 Obama.

00:39:22.720 I know it's added.

00:39:23.680 President Trump.

00:39:24.840 Senate Republicans

00:39:25.880 begin their final push

00:39:27.200 today to unravel.

00:39:29.520 This is a seven-year

00:39:31.380 offensive.

00:39:34.200 Emphasis on the word

00:39:35.260 offensive that takes all

00:39:36.740 kinds of meaning in this

00:39:38.480 story.

00:39:39.840 They hope that a pared-down

00:39:41.920 skinny bill which will

00:39:44.280 repeal several Obamacare

00:39:45.920 provisions can gain enough

00:39:47.960 support.

00:39:49.360 Several times they have

00:39:51.060 voted this week.

00:39:52.820 Senate yesterday rejected

00:39:54.160 45-55 a straight repeal of

00:39:56.620 Obamacare with a two-year

00:39:58.360 delay in implementation to

00:40:00.400 allow Congress to work out

00:40:01.580 a replacement.

00:40:02.620 That is what they promised

00:40:04.020 in 2015.

00:40:05.780 Seven Republicans opposed the

00:40:07.840 measure which was going to

00:40:08.880 be pushed by party

00:40:10.180 leadership.

00:40:11.480 Trump sent this out today.

00:40:14.480 Come on, Republican senators.

00:40:21.320 You can do it.

00:40:22.960 You can make a move on

00:40:24.500 health care.

00:40:25.620 After seven years, this is

00:40:27.260 your chance to shine.

00:40:29.080 Don't let the American people

00:40:30.380 down.

00:40:31.620 What is he saying there?

00:40:38.100 I'm going to explain this

00:40:39.920 through a personal story.

00:40:41.700 Nobody in Washington seems to

00:40:47.760 be working for us.

00:40:50.100 Nobody is actually engaged

00:40:52.100 working for you.

00:40:54.100 The one that they asked you

00:40:55.740 to not only vote, but they

00:40:58.380 asked you to go and convince

00:40:59.420 your friends.

00:41:00.300 They got you so wrapped up in

00:41:02.880 it, no matter which side

00:41:03.960 you're on, that you have lost

00:41:06.100 friends and in some cases

00:41:07.660 family members.

00:41:08.780 You have done so much work

00:41:11.660 and carried so much water

00:41:12.880 because you truly believed

00:41:15.480 that this group of people,

00:41:17.720 whichever side, that these

00:41:20.300 people would do everything

00:41:22.500 they can because they asked

00:41:23.960 you, do everything you can.

00:41:27.180 I want you to go get friends.

00:41:28.500 I want you to drive people

00:41:29.740 to the election.

00:41:30.460 I want you to talk to people.

00:41:31.800 I want you to convince them.

00:41:33.480 And people did to the point

00:41:35.500 where we can't even talk to

00:41:37.760 each other anymore.

00:41:41.560 None of them are working

00:41:42.580 for you.

00:41:46.100 And what's happening in

00:41:47.600 Washington, D.C.

00:41:48.400 right now is a prime example.

00:41:51.780 And no one is holding them

00:41:53.120 accountable.

00:41:53.900 There is no accountability.

00:41:57.060 So let me tell you my story.

00:42:00.160 A few years ago, I started

00:42:02.260 the blaze.

00:42:04.440 And without getting into

00:42:05.920 all the details, I knew

00:42:07.800 we had a problem when

00:42:09.940 the leader of the company

00:42:12.040 said to me in a phone

00:42:14.440 conversation, I said,

00:42:16.480 you're just going after clicks.

00:42:18.580 You're just trying to drive

00:42:19.800 ratings.

00:42:20.540 I don't understand that.

00:42:22.140 That's not what we stand for.

00:42:24.160 What are our principles?

00:42:25.640 And I was told, Glenn, quote,

00:42:28.000 nobody gives an F about

00:42:30.600 your effing principles.

00:42:32.460 And I paused.

00:42:33.980 And I said, you realize

00:42:35.460 who you just said that to?

00:42:37.420 Yes.

00:42:39.620 I knew at that point

00:42:41.320 my company was beyond

00:42:43.100 repair.

00:42:45.460 But I hoped.

00:42:48.800 So what I did is I tried

00:42:50.580 to clean house with as little

00:42:52.140 as I could.

00:42:53.900 But it was pretty infested.

00:42:55.840 And I don't mean just with

00:42:57.400 people.

00:42:57.900 I mean with policies and

00:42:59.580 and and riddled with

00:43:02.000 debt and everything else.

00:43:05.260 I should have shut it down

00:43:07.700 and started over.

00:43:09.520 But people entrusted me.

00:43:12.640 And I had failed them.

00:43:14.340 And I wasn't going to fail.

00:43:16.220 So I went and I looked

00:43:17.320 for strong people in our

00:43:19.540 own staff.

00:43:21.560 That could help.

00:43:23.880 A year later, I have

00:43:25.800 a meeting with one of

00:43:27.340 the new executives.

00:43:31.120 And I had a meeting

00:43:33.080 for about an hour

00:43:33.860 on a project that

00:43:35.100 I thought we should do.

00:43:37.460 But I wasn't running

00:43:38.680 the company.

00:43:39.400 I was only a

00:43:40.800 one of the voices

00:43:42.060 in the company that

00:43:43.080 as an investor,

00:43:44.440 let me advise you

00:43:45.660 where I think we should go.

00:43:47.000 And it's self-imposed.

00:43:48.100 That's what I self-imposed

00:43:49.300 on the company.

00:43:52.200 So everybody sat in this

00:43:53.480 meeting and said,

00:43:53.860 that's fantastic.

00:43:54.920 Great.

00:43:55.400 Let's do that.

00:43:58.060 They left my office

00:43:59.340 and a brand new employee

00:44:01.340 heard this other employee

00:44:03.640 say,

00:44:04.880 he went to him

00:44:05.680 and said,

00:44:06.000 okay,

00:44:06.380 let's get together

00:44:07.440 because you and I are

00:44:08.000 going to have to work

00:44:08.420 closely on this

00:44:09.360 to get this done.

00:44:10.600 And the one employee

00:44:11.860 said to the new employee,

00:44:13.180 what are you talking about?

00:44:14.860 We're not going to do

00:44:15.340 any of that stuff.

00:44:16.280 It took one brave

00:44:21.320 new employee

00:44:22.020 to tell me that.

00:44:23.400 And after a long time

00:44:25.600 of fighting this

00:44:27.920 and not believing

00:44:29.680 that I was smart enough

00:44:31.600 to fix it

00:44:32.460 or powerful enough

00:44:33.400 to fix it,

00:44:34.440 I was at the point

00:44:35.700 of giving up.

00:44:40.300 Then the election came.

00:44:42.620 And I was

00:44:45.000 quite honestly

00:44:46.560 just as mad at you

00:44:47.660 as you were at me.

00:44:49.480 I didn't understand you.

00:44:51.100 You didn't understand me.

00:44:53.060 And I think we just

00:44:54.080 missed each other

00:44:54.780 in language.

00:44:56.040 And I'm trying

00:44:56.760 to repair that now

00:44:57.960 to really truly

00:44:58.860 go back

00:44:59.400 and do the things

00:45:00.060 that I should have asked.

00:45:01.560 And that is,

00:45:02.560 come on,

00:45:02.900 you're a good friend of mine.

00:45:04.040 This is not normal behavior

00:45:05.620 for you.

00:45:06.600 What the hell

00:45:07.300 is happening

00:45:07.800 in your life?

00:45:09.200 And I would have

00:45:09.940 seen your pain

00:45:10.800 and things would have

00:45:12.040 been different.

00:45:16.780 About eight months ago,

00:45:17.820 my wife said,

00:45:18.640 I've had it.

00:45:20.360 Shut it down, honey.

00:45:22.040 It's going to kill you

00:45:23.060 or wipe us out

00:45:24.100 or whatever.

00:45:24.640 Just shut it down.

00:45:27.000 It's not worth it.

00:45:32.640 I said no

00:45:33.920 because again,

00:45:35.180 I have partners

00:45:36.440 who rely on me.

00:45:37.760 I have employees

00:45:39.240 who rely on me.

00:45:41.320 And most importantly,

00:45:42.540 I started thinking

00:45:43.720 about the vision

00:45:44.460 that was entrusted

00:45:45.520 with me.

00:45:47.060 You know me

00:45:47.820 if you listen

00:45:48.360 to my show.

00:45:49.380 I could be delusional,

00:45:50.920 sure,

00:45:51.440 but I do believe

00:45:52.920 that we're all here

00:45:54.140 for a reason

00:45:54.840 and I was given

00:45:55.780 this vision

00:45:57.480 of to create something

00:45:59.000 for a reason.

00:46:01.340 And I'm not

00:46:02.480 going to give up on it.

00:46:04.820 And so,

00:46:06.140 instead,

00:46:06.700 I didn't give up.

00:46:09.820 I said,

00:46:11.060 honestly,

00:46:12.740 it's my fault.

00:46:16.280 I wasn't running

00:46:17.400 the company.

00:46:18.400 I had nothing

00:46:19.040 to do with

00:46:19.960 other than I was

00:46:20.900 a big investor

00:46:21.600 and I was

00:46:22.580 the founder

00:46:23.840 and would make suggestions

00:46:25.580 but that was all

00:46:26.360 self-imposed.

00:46:27.260 I could have.

00:46:28.440 How,

00:46:28.980 what crazy idea

00:46:30.560 did I have

00:46:31.300 that the guy

00:46:32.260 who had the vision,

00:46:34.160 the guy who had

00:46:34.940 the most passion,

00:46:35.860 more than anybody else,

00:46:37.660 would self-impose

00:46:39.060 and restrict himself

00:46:40.240 from actually

00:46:41.080 being,

00:46:41.840 holding people

00:46:42.440 accountable for it.

00:46:43.580 That's just stupid

00:46:44.580 because I could hire

00:46:46.380 the best people

00:46:47.280 but unless they

00:46:48.520 had the vision,

00:46:49.860 unless they had

00:46:50.560 the passion,

00:46:51.260 they were not

00:46:52.060 going to create

00:46:53.060 what I was looking for.

00:46:55.260 I'm the one

00:46:56.360 who has the vision.

00:46:57.900 I'm the one

00:46:58.660 who believes in it.

00:46:59.720 It's my responsibility

00:47:01.820 in the first

00:47:03.260 and the last

00:47:04.340 place.

00:47:05.920 Blame others?

00:47:06.940 No.

00:47:07.500 Hold people

00:47:08.060 accountable?

00:47:09.060 Yes.

00:47:10.720 But I need to

00:47:11.620 take charge

00:47:12.160 of my stewardship.

00:47:14.460 So I was faced

00:47:15.640 with,

00:47:16.140 do I pull the

00:47:17.520 ripcord?

00:47:17.940 Do I eject?

00:47:19.660 Or not?

00:47:20.440 This is the point

00:47:24.980 of the story

00:47:25.520 that will take

00:47:26.140 you now

00:47:26.540 to Washington.

00:47:28.280 I pulled

00:47:29.100 the ripcord

00:47:29.760 but not

00:47:31.680 the one

00:47:32.360 that the rest

00:47:33.920 of the world

00:47:34.520 will tell you

00:47:35.460 you can pull.

00:47:36.520 Just give up.

00:47:38.660 I pulled

00:47:39.560 the ripcord

00:47:40.300 the one

00:47:41.600 that stops

00:47:42.420 everything

00:47:42.960 and says

00:47:43.980 stop.

00:47:45.320 I'm not

00:47:47.480 playing this

00:47:48.320 game anymore.

00:47:50.080 I'm changing

00:47:51.220 the rules

00:47:52.080 to common

00:47:52.840 sense rules.

00:47:55.160 I'm the

00:47:56.080 owner

00:47:56.440 of this

00:47:57.460 place.

00:47:58.180 It's my

00:47:58.780 vision.

00:47:59.360 It's mostly

00:48:00.120 my money

00:48:00.780 and it's

00:48:01.200 my life.

00:48:02.600 And you

00:48:03.040 know what?

00:48:03.960 I found

00:48:05.060 that this

00:48:05.500 company

00:48:05.900 is full

00:48:06.980 of people

00:48:07.680 who worked

00:48:08.700 here

00:48:08.980 because

00:48:10.060 they have

00:48:11.540 a piece

00:48:12.080 of that

00:48:12.420 vision

00:48:12.720 and they're

00:48:13.400 passionate

00:48:13.920 about that

00:48:14.800 vision.

00:48:15.760 And they

00:48:16.400 have been

00:48:16.700 waiting for

00:48:17.240 me to

00:48:17.680 step up

00:48:18.360 and say

00:48:19.000 we're

00:48:20.880 going

00:48:21.420 here.

00:48:23.740 They're

00:48:24.260 here

00:48:24.820 because

00:48:26.080 they too

00:48:26.940 believe.

00:48:29.280 And so

00:48:29.540 the last

00:48:29.920 few weeks

00:48:31.000 or couple

00:48:31.660 of months

00:48:32.020 I've been

00:48:32.300 asking them

00:48:32.940 you got

00:48:33.840 to help

00:48:34.140 me.

00:48:34.520 If you

00:48:35.120 believe

00:48:35.620 you got

00:48:36.600 to help

00:48:36.860 me.

00:48:37.320 Here's

00:48:37.580 where we're

00:48:37.900 going.

00:48:38.320 Here's

00:48:38.560 the point

00:48:38.940 on the

00:48:39.180 horizon.

00:48:41.960 Refocus

00:48:42.460 teach

00:48:43.880 and empower.

00:48:46.320 Now I

00:48:46.860 don't know

00:48:47.140 we may

00:48:47.500 not make

00:48:47.860 the turn.

00:48:48.960 We might.

00:48:50.040 I think

00:48:50.440 we are.

00:48:51.000 I think

00:48:51.220 we're going

00:48:51.460 to change

00:48:52.780 everything

00:48:53.800 again.

00:48:55.220 And we're

00:48:55.700 not going

00:48:55.960 to get

00:48:56.160 there for

00:48:56.520 a while.

00:48:57.760 It's going

00:48:58.220 to be

00:48:58.360 hard.

00:48:58.740 But in

00:49:00.760 the meantime

00:49:01.100 I can

00:49:01.420 make a

00:49:01.720 few small

00:49:02.320 movements

00:49:02.740 in the

00:49:03.080 right

00:49:03.240 direction

00:49:03.700 and then

00:49:04.600 perhaps

00:49:04.960 others

00:49:05.260 will go

00:49:05.660 well I

00:49:06.140 see what

00:49:06.460 they're

00:49:06.600 going for

00:49:07.140 I see

00:49:07.440 where they're

00:49:07.900 I see

00:49:08.240 where they're

00:49:08.500 headed

00:49:08.720 and they'll

00:49:09.600 help us.

00:49:11.420 How does

00:49:12.040 this relate

00:49:12.420 to health

00:49:12.740 care?

00:49:14.340 Let me

00:49:14.940 reread the

00:49:15.620 tweet here.

00:49:18.080 GOP

00:49:18.600 on health

00:49:20.200 care

00:49:20.560 after seven

00:49:21.820 years this

00:49:22.600 is your

00:49:22.980 chance to

00:49:23.580 shine.

00:49:24.480 Don't let

00:49:24.900 the American

00:49:25.400 people down.

00:49:26.200 Mr.

00:49:27.540 President

00:49:27.920 take

00:49:29.440 responsibility.

00:49:32.160 You have

00:49:33.420 been for

00:49:34.100 any and

00:49:35.360 all of

00:49:36.200 these bills.

00:49:38.160 You were

00:49:38.680 elected because

00:49:39.420 you are

00:49:40.300 the deal

00:49:41.100 maker.

00:49:42.560 You're the

00:49:42.940 guy who

00:49:43.400 said you

00:49:43.740 could bring

00:49:44.180 everyone

00:49:44.640 together.

00:49:46.220 You haven't

00:49:46.880 even it

00:49:47.660 seems tried

00:49:49.180 to bring

00:49:50.380 all of

00:49:51.300 your party

00:49:52.800 behind you

00:49:53.820 because we

00:49:55.400 as the

00:49:55.780 American

00:49:56.040 people don't

00:49:56.680 feel you

00:49:57.300 have a

00:49:57.780 passion for

00:49:59.440 this deal

00:50:00.480 or that

00:50:01.040 deal.

00:50:01.500 You have

00:50:01.760 a passion

00:50:02.180 for any

00:50:02.920 deal.

00:50:04.060 That doesn't

00:50:04.600 work.

00:50:06.340 This is

00:50:07.040 your chance

00:50:07.800 to shine

00:50:08.380 Mr.

00:50:08.760 President.

00:50:10.020 This is

00:50:10.760 your chance

00:50:11.640 to bring

00:50:12.340 the GOP

00:50:13.040 together.

00:50:13.640 Not to

00:50:14.260 point fingers

00:50:14.940 and say

00:50:15.400 it's just

00:50:16.020 the GOP

00:50:16.920 because that

00:50:18.500 doesn't help.

00:50:21.660 Sorry I

00:50:22.420 don't want to

00:50:23.420 make this about

00:50:23.980 the president

00:50:24.420 because this

00:50:26.000 isn't about

00:50:26.400 the president

00:50:26.900 just like

00:50:28.180 my company

00:50:29.340 isn't about

00:50:30.680 people who

00:50:32.000 used to

00:50:32.460 work here

00:50:32.860 or anything

00:50:33.200 else.

00:50:33.940 It's about

00:50:34.780 today and

00:50:36.300 what can I

00:50:36.920 do.

00:50:39.480 Nobody is

00:50:40.400 being held

00:50:41.000 responsible or

00:50:42.220 accountable in

00:50:43.260 our country.

00:50:44.040 Those guys

00:50:44.860 go to

00:50:45.300 Washington.

00:50:46.140 They tell

00:50:46.560 you anything

00:50:47.400 and then we

00:50:49.540 never fire

00:50:50.460 them.

00:50:50.780 they are

00:50:53.820 the ones

00:50:54.280 who listen

00:50:54.880 to us

00:50:55.420 in our

00:50:55.740 town halls

00:50:56.380 and then

00:50:56.820 they go

00:50:57.180 out into

00:50:57.500 the hallway

00:50:58.020 and somebody

00:50:59.160 who's new

00:51:00.000 in Washington

00:51:00.720 and sincere

00:51:01.840 says to the

00:51:03.060 older guy

00:51:03.680 hey so we

00:51:04.800 should meet

00:51:05.240 on this

00:51:05.760 and the

00:51:06.740 other guy

00:51:07.140 says what

00:51:07.940 are you

00:51:08.100 talking about

00:51:08.540 we're not

00:51:08.740 going to do

00:51:09.000 any of that

00:51:09.400 crap.

00:51:11.140 That is

00:51:12.120 Mitch

00:51:12.460 McConnell.

00:51:14.620 That is

00:51:15.540 Paul Ryan.

00:51:16.420 that is

00:51:18.420 a majority

00:51:19.240 of the

00:51:19.720 DNC

00:51:20.420 and the

00:51:20.840 RNC.

00:51:22.200 They will

00:51:22.760 tell you

00:51:23.400 whatever they

00:51:24.180 have to

00:51:24.760 tell you

00:51:25.480 so you

00:51:26.400 stop looking

00:51:27.600 at them

00:51:28.300 and then

00:51:29.520 when the

00:51:29.960 crap hits

00:51:30.540 the fan

00:51:31.140 they blame

00:51:32.120 it on

00:51:32.520 someone else.

00:51:34.120 So how

00:51:34.600 are we

00:51:34.820 going to

00:51:35.080 fix this?

00:51:35.860 There's

00:51:36.260 one answer.

00:51:37.520 This is

00:51:38.040 your country.

00:51:40.000 This is

00:51:40.800 your money.

00:51:42.000 This is

00:51:42.380 your life.

00:51:43.580 This is

00:51:43.940 your future.

00:51:45.140 This is

00:51:45.480 your children's

00:51:46.400 future.

00:51:47.900 There is

00:51:48.520 one cord

00:51:49.820 that you

00:51:50.240 can pull

00:51:50.940 to eject

00:51:51.920 out of

00:51:52.660 this and

00:51:53.200 it is

00:51:53.500 called

00:51:53.860 Article 5.

00:51:55.460 It's in

00:51:56.040 the

00:51:56.260 Constitution.

00:51:57.920 It is

00:51:58.440 the last

00:51:59.840 resort

00:52:00.640 given to

00:52:01.940 the people

00:52:02.480 because

00:52:03.060 the founders

00:52:03.980 knew this

00:52:04.580 was going

00:52:04.840 to happen

00:52:05.180 because they

00:52:05.680 didn't talk

00:52:06.160 about the

00:52:06.520 better angels.

00:52:07.760 If we were

00:52:08.320 surrounded by

00:52:08.960 better angels

00:52:09.780 we wouldn't

00:52:10.420 need the

00:52:10.880 Constitution.

00:52:12.100 The Constitution

00:52:12.780 is not a

00:52:13.520 restraint on

00:52:14.160 you the

00:52:14.760 people.

00:52:15.360 It's a

00:52:15.520 restraint on

00:52:16.460 those people

00:52:17.380 that have

00:52:18.540 power because

00:52:19.560 the founders

00:52:20.560 knew every

00:52:21.640 single time

00:52:22.860 power corrupts.

00:52:25.820 And so at

00:52:26.400 the end of

00:52:27.060 the Constitutional

00:52:27.940 Convention they

00:52:28.540 said you know

00:52:29.100 what we haven't

00:52:29.800 given the people.

00:52:30.700 We've given it to

00:52:31.160 the states.

00:52:32.100 But what happens

00:52:32.920 if the states

00:52:33.560 go bad?

00:52:34.360 We haven't

00:52:34.980 given it to

00:52:35.480 the people.

00:52:37.220 And they

00:52:37.960 wrote in

00:52:38.460 Article 5 which

00:52:39.880 allows the

00:52:40.640 people to

00:52:41.480 stand up

00:52:42.240 and say

00:52:43.120 enough.

00:52:45.020 You're not

00:52:45.760 doing our

00:52:46.680 work.

00:52:48.460 We're going

00:52:48.900 to put term

00:52:49.480 limits on

00:52:50.060 you.

00:52:50.600 We're going

00:52:51.000 to put spending

00:52:51.840 limits on

00:52:52.700 you.

00:52:53.860 Because you'll

00:52:54.820 never do it.

00:52:56.180 And these

00:52:56.900 things have

00:52:57.840 to be done.

00:53:00.280 You get

00:53:01.160 involved in

00:53:01.980 first defund

00:53:03.380 the GOP

00:53:04.140 and the DNC.

00:53:05.340 Don't give

00:53:05.980 those people

00:53:06.600 another dime.

00:53:08.180 They're using

00:53:09.180 you.

00:53:10.800 Second,

00:53:11.940 start listening

00:53:13.620 to common

00:53:14.280 sense.

00:53:15.320 Start looking

00:53:16.260 at the

00:53:17.000 whole picture.

00:53:18.220 Not just

00:53:18.800 the picture

00:53:19.340 given to

00:53:20.020 you by the

00:53:20.520 people who

00:53:21.320 are making

00:53:21.840 you feel

00:53:22.500 good.

00:53:23.260 You need

00:53:23.920 the truth.

00:53:26.100 So look

00:53:26.740 for the

00:53:27.180 truth.

00:53:28.960 And then

00:53:29.300 get involved

00:53:30.140 in the

00:53:31.140 Article 5

00:55:06.100 about what

00:55:09.660 II?

00:55:10.500 They made

00:55:11.180 it because

00:55:12.580 their own

00:55:13.080 food.

00:55:13.620 They made

00:55:14.140 it because

00:55:14.940 they had

00:55:15.700 extra on

00:55:16.540 hand because

00:55:17.180 suddenly

00:56:22.360 I'm on

00:56:22.920 I'm on

00:56:23.500 I think that we

00:56:24.140 need a song on

00:56:24.820 that.

00:56:25.000 Yeah, it's catchy.

00:56:26.480 He's the guy

00:56:27.900 that Debbie

00:56:29.040 Wasserman Schultz

00:56:30.120 was using as

00:56:31.600 the top

00:56:32.880 IT staffer.

00:56:34.700 There is

00:56:35.880 something

00:56:36.320 really bad

00:56:37.900 going on here

00:56:38.940 and this goes

00:56:39.860 to

00:56:40.300 absolute

00:56:41.500 total

00:56:42.200 corruption.

00:56:44.120 He is a guy

00:56:45.420 who wired

00:56:46.000 $283,000

00:56:47.360 to Pakistan

00:56:48.340 before he

00:56:49.100 tried to

00:56:49.660 leave the

00:56:50.140 country.

00:56:50.520 He was

00:56:51.360 leaving the

00:56:51.860 country with

00:56:52.360 $12,000

00:56:53.160 in cash.

00:56:55.660 He

00:56:56.300 destroyed the

00:56:58.180 hard drives.

00:56:58.860 Now here's who

00:56:59.320 this guy was.

00:57:00.480 He was in

00:57:01.500 charge of

00:57:02.440 Debbie Wasserman

00:57:03.100 Schultz and

00:57:04.300 I think other

00:57:05.240 hard drives

00:57:08.100 in the

00:57:08.540 capital.

00:57:09.740 And he

00:57:10.500 and his

00:57:11.160 family,

00:57:11.820 they were

00:57:12.200 charging like

00:57:13.100 four times

00:57:14.400 the amount

00:57:14.920 they should

00:57:15.340 have charged.

00:57:16.800 And he

00:57:17.980 had taken

00:57:18.660 email

00:57:20.320 from

00:57:21.620 senators

00:57:22.240 and rerouted

00:57:23.780 the traffic

00:57:24.720 so they

00:57:25.580 were,

00:57:25.840 he was

00:57:26.340 allowed or

00:57:27.160 able to

00:57:27.860 get all

00:57:28.800 senators

00:57:29.300 traffic on

00:57:30.260 their email

00:57:30.920 servers

00:57:31.620 to a hard

00:57:33.140 drive off

00:57:34.080 site that

00:57:34.800 he kept

00:57:35.540 without

00:57:36.980 anybody

00:57:37.380 knowing it.

00:57:39.180 And Debbie

00:57:39.640 Wasserman

00:57:40.000 Schultz and

00:57:41.000 the DNC

00:57:41.800 protected this

00:57:42.860 guy relentlessly.

00:59:03.700 doing

00:59:04.120 IT support.

00:59:07.020 If we're

00:59:08.220 really,

00:59:09.060 if it's

00:59:09.440 costing us

00:59:10.040 five million

00:59:11.240 dollars to

00:59:12.560 do IT

00:59:13.260 support in

00:59:14.480 the nation's

00:59:15.060 capital for

00:59:16.360 Debbie Wasserman

00:59:17.220 Schultz and

00:59:18.140 the Democrats,

00:59:19.640 that's a

00:59:20.300 problem.

00:59:21.280 That is a

00:59:22.000 big problem

00:59:22.840 when it's

00:59:23.420 all going

00:59:23.960 to one

00:59:24.600 family.

00:59:26.060 Now,

00:59:26.520 here's a

00:59:27.300 couple of

00:59:27.600 things that

00:59:28.140 are really

00:59:28.700 disturbing

00:59:29.300 about this

00:59:30.180 guy.

00:59:31.380 So far,

00:59:32.660 he's only

00:59:33.140 being charged

00:59:33.640 with bank

00:59:34.220 fraud,

00:59:34.860 and the

00:59:35.120 reason why

00:59:35.860 is because

00:59:36.960 he went to

00:59:37.580 the House

00:59:38.000 Credit Union

00:59:38.780 and said,

00:59:40.100 I want to

00:59:41.020 take out a

00:59:41.560 loan on

00:59:42.400 my house,

00:59:43.940 and he

00:59:44.940 applied for

00:59:45.660 this loan,

00:59:47.640 I think

00:59:48.340 got the

00:59:48.980 loan of

00:59:49.980 $300,000

00:59:50.900 or $287,000,

00:59:52.220 but it's a

00:59:53.220 home he was

00:59:53.780 renting.

00:59:54.860 He didn't

00:59:55.240 own it.

00:59:57.160 You know,

00:59:57.460 how are these

00:59:57.920 people going to

00:59:58.420 fix the banks

00:59:59.500 if their own

01:00:00.540 house credit

01:00:01.980 union is

01:00:02.660 doing that?

01:00:03.960 So they

01:00:05.040 gave him

01:00:05.580 the loan.

01:00:06.480 He then

01:00:06.940 tried to

01:00:07.580 transfer the

01:00:08.300 money to

01:00:09.320 Pakistan.

01:00:10.100 Okay,

01:00:12.720 nothing here

01:00:13.540 about Islam.

01:00:14.800 There's nothing

01:00:15.280 here about

01:00:15.740 Islam.

01:00:16.160 Don't jump

01:00:16.560 to any

01:00:17.080 conclusions

01:00:17.760 because of

01:00:19.400 Pakistan.

01:00:22.000 All we

01:00:22.560 know right

01:00:23.180 now is

01:00:23.860 this guy

01:00:24.520 was at

01:00:25.300 least a

01:00:26.420 total fraud,

01:00:27.780 and he

01:00:28.380 was trying

01:00:28.860 to leave

01:00:29.440 the country

01:00:30.080 once they

01:00:31.160 were on

01:00:31.640 to him.

01:00:32.800 Now,

01:00:33.020 why?

01:00:34.020 Why did

01:00:34.820 Debbie Wasserman

01:00:35.540 Schultz,

01:00:36.680 every time

01:00:37.760 somebody brought

01:00:39.180 him up,

01:00:40.100 she quashed

01:00:41.180 it?

01:00:41.440 There was

01:00:42.140 an investigation.

01:00:43.760 She raised

01:00:44.700 holy hell.

01:00:47.120 A company

01:00:47.640 came in

01:00:48.300 and did

01:00:48.720 an analysis

01:00:49.360 and said,

01:00:50.520 we can do

01:00:51.160 the same

01:00:51.880 service for

01:00:53.300 a quarter

01:00:54.020 of the

01:00:54.580 price.

01:00:56.060 Why are

01:00:56.960 you paying

01:00:57.400 five million

01:00:58.480 dollars to

01:00:59.260 this family?

01:01:00.480 We can do

01:01:01.240 better at

01:01:02.400 a quarter

01:01:02.920 of a price.

01:01:04.240 She kicked

01:01:05.180 them out.

01:01:05.640 anyone who

01:01:07.140 ever said

01:01:07.840 anything about

01:01:09.000 him or

01:01:09.760 his family,

01:01:10.620 they found

01:01:11.020 themselves

01:01:11.560 fired.

01:01:13.480 We know

01:01:14.280 that he

01:01:14.680 smashed all

01:01:15.760 of his

01:01:16.040 hard drives.

01:01:18.760 We also

01:01:19.340 know,

01:01:20.120 we know,

01:01:20.720 we also

01:01:21.300 have heard

01:01:22.120 that he

01:01:24.240 had gone

01:01:26.680 into some

01:01:28.100 or all,

01:01:28.800 we don't

01:01:29.140 know,

01:01:29.980 of the

01:01:30.460 House and

01:01:31.120 the Senate

01:01:31.740 computers,

01:01:32.980 gotten

01:01:34.200 the

01:01:34.580 emails,

01:01:36.280 and any

01:01:37.360 email that

01:01:38.400 the senators

01:01:39.660 were writing

01:01:40.560 and the

01:01:41.500 House members

01:01:41.980 were writing

01:01:42.500 were going

01:01:43.100 to off-site

01:01:44.700 servers and

01:01:45.980 a hard drive

01:01:46.980 owned by

01:01:47.660 him.

01:01:49.800 Is it

01:01:50.740 possible he

01:01:51.380 was blackmailing?

01:01:53.040 Is it

01:01:53.980 possible he

01:01:54.580 was blackmailing

01:01:55.500 Debbie Wasserman

01:01:56.260 Schultz,

01:01:57.800 the DNC,

01:01:59.020 House

01:01:59.340 members?

01:01:59.860 $5

01:02:02.380 million?

01:02:04.120 That's

01:02:04.900 outrageous.

01:02:06.600 No one

01:02:07.120 could question

01:02:07.880 him without

01:02:08.780 being fired?

01:02:09.920 That's

01:02:10.440 outrageous.

01:02:13.180 Smashing

01:02:14.020 the off-site

01:02:14.960 hard drives,

01:02:16.720 then trying

01:02:18.000 to steal

01:02:19.540 money from

01:02:20.500 the people,

01:02:21.420 you've already

01:02:22.200 had $5

01:02:22.800 million,

01:02:24.180 trying to

01:02:24.880 take an

01:02:25.200 additional,

01:02:25.960 what,

01:02:26.540 $287

01:02:27.640 and transfer

01:02:29.020 it out

01:02:29.700 to Pakistan

01:02:30.520 as you

01:02:31.980 are leaving

01:02:32.760 the country,

01:02:34.720 fleeing when

01:02:35.640 they want to

01:02:36.040 question you?

01:02:37.560 Again,

01:02:38.240 outrageous.

01:02:39.240 Yesterday he

01:02:39.880 was in

01:02:40.260 court,

01:02:40.540 he was charged

01:02:41.140 with just

01:02:41.580 the bank

01:02:42.100 fraud part

01:02:42.700 of it

01:02:42.900 because

01:02:43.240 they're just

01:02:44.160 beginning an

01:02:44.900 investigation.

01:02:47.060 That's

01:02:47.400 that is

01:02:49.020 when Debbie

01:02:49.520 Wasserman

01:02:49.920 Schultz

01:02:50.380 decided to

01:02:51.620 fire him.

01:02:53.060 Yesterday,

01:02:54.480 after the

01:02:55.360 hearing.

01:02:55.860 excuse me,

01:02:59.380 what?

01:03:00.540 Is it

01:03:01.180 possible this

01:03:01.920 guy was

01:03:02.800 leaking

01:03:03.940 information?

01:03:05.220 Is it

01:03:05.440 possible this

01:03:06.240 is the

01:03:07.000 leak?

01:03:07.500 Is it

01:03:08.020 possible there

01:03:08.660 was blackmail

01:03:09.620 going on?

01:03:11.100 Is it

01:03:11.480 possible this

01:03:12.200 guy was

01:03:12.760 taking

01:03:13.260 confidential

01:03:14.420 information and

01:03:15.840 giving it to

01:03:16.460 our enemies or

01:03:17.300 just selling it

01:03:18.080 for the highest

01:03:18.580 price?

01:03:19.540 Is it

01:03:19.960 possible,

01:03:20.600 forget about

01:03:21.100 Islam,

01:03:21.500 is it

01:03:21.920 possible this

01:03:22.780 guy was

01:03:23.980 at all

01:03:24.520 involved with

01:03:25.460 Julian Assange

01:03:26.600 and Putin?

01:03:29.660 Is this

01:03:30.580 where the

01:03:30.900 DNC leak

01:03:31.700 came from?

01:03:32.780 Or any

01:03:33.460 part of it?

01:03:34.680 Was he

01:03:35.100 involved?

01:03:36.860 Strangely,

01:03:37.680 the media

01:03:38.320 doesn't have

01:03:40.120 any questions.

01:03:41.860 CBS

01:03:42.300 yesterday

01:03:43.160 reported on

01:03:43.860 this for a

01:03:44.600 whopping 37

01:03:46.060 seconds.

01:03:48.300 This seems

01:03:49.400 like a pretty

01:03:50.260 big deal.

01:03:51.500 media, you

01:03:54.280 want to know

01:03:54.620 why nobody

01:03:55.020 trusts you?

01:03:56.520 Because you

01:03:57.160 won't take

01:03:57.560 on, quote,

01:03:58.700 your own

01:03:59.240 side, which

01:04:00.120 you're not

01:04:00.980 playing, you

01:04:03.160 know, any

01:04:03.760 kind of game

01:04:04.320 to help at

01:04:04.860 all.

01:04:05.100 That's

01:04:05.320 definitely not

01:04:06.320 happening.

01:04:07.580 37 seconds

01:04:08.800 for this?

01:04:10.560 Why?

01:04:11.260 The only

01:04:11.900 thing that I

01:04:12.780 can think of

01:04:13.540 is that you're

01:04:14.320 not in the

01:04:16.060 bag for the

01:04:16.860 DNC.

01:04:18.080 You are so

01:04:19.120 afraid of

01:04:19.940 political

01:04:20.440 correctness,

01:04:21.220 and you

01:04:21.860 think

01:04:22.200 Americans

01:04:22.680 are so

01:04:23.200 bigoted

01:04:23.740 and stupid

01:04:24.400 that because

01:04:25.500 this guy

01:04:26.180 was going

01:04:27.200 to Pakistan

01:04:27.960 and his

01:04:28.680 name was

01:04:29.220 Amanawan,

01:04:30.140 that you

01:04:32.820 just think

01:04:33.500 we're going

01:04:33.860 to round

01:04:34.480 up Muslims

01:04:35.060 and head

01:04:35.540 to our

01:04:35.840 local

01:04:36.120 mosques.

01:04:37.620 No.

01:04:38.140 No.

01:04:39.260 No.

01:04:40.080 If there's

01:04:40.780 anything that

01:04:41.640 this makes

01:04:42.160 me want to

01:04:42.780 do, it

01:04:43.880 makes me

01:04:44.520 want to

01:04:44.960 fumigate

01:04:45.940 everything in

01:04:47.640 the House

01:04:48.140 and in the

01:04:48.740 Senate.

01:04:49.860 If corruption

01:04:51.140 at this level

01:04:52.620 was happening,

01:04:53.800 what are the

01:04:54.260 things that we

01:04:55.120 don't know

01:04:55.520 about?

01:04:56.800 If this guy

01:04:58.000 was compromising

01:04:59.080 any of our

01:05:00.220 House members

01:05:01.040 or Senate,

01:05:01.700 has he

01:05:02.440 compromised

01:05:03.020 any national

01:05:04.020 security

01:05:04.660 pieces?

01:05:05.540 Have any

01:05:06.100 votes gone

01:05:06.900 down because

01:05:07.820 he could

01:05:10.460 use it or

01:05:12.180 because he

01:05:14.100 was possibly

01:05:14.760 feeding it to

01:05:15.880 Debbie Wasserman

01:05:16.840 Schultz?

01:05:18.180 Don't you think

01:05:19.020 some of those

01:05:19.560 questions are

01:05:20.120 important?

01:05:21.160 No, because

01:05:21.700 the president

01:05:22.440 tweeted his

01:05:23.540 transgender ban

01:05:25.480 yesterday.

01:05:26.420 We've got to

01:05:26.720 cover that.

01:05:27.180 That's right.

01:05:28.680 That's what we

01:05:29.600 have to look

01:05:30.040 at.

01:05:30.720 He's banning

01:05:31.700 transgender people

01:05:32.480 in the military.

01:05:33.920 By the way,

01:05:34.860 he's got

01:05:36.520 himself an

01:05:37.080 attorney.

01:05:39.400 He hired

01:05:40.580 Chris Goen,

01:05:41.960 the founding

01:05:42.540 partner of

01:05:43.720 Goen, Rhodes,

01:05:44.620 Winograd, and

01:05:45.320 Silva.

01:05:48.580 I'm sure this

01:05:49.460 is just a

01:05:49.880 coincidence, but

01:05:50.740 this is the

01:05:51.740 guy that was

01:05:55.660 a fact checker

01:05:56.620 for President

01:05:57.860 Clinton's

01:05:58.280 memoir, My

01:05:59.220 Life.

01:05:59.780 He was a

01:06:00.320 traveling aide

01:06:01.040 for President

01:06:01.680 Clinton on

01:06:02.440 national and

01:06:03.040 international trips.

01:06:05.080 He finished

01:06:06.160 his tenure with

01:06:06.940 the Clintons

01:06:07.580 doing advance

01:06:08.920 operations for

01:06:09.760 Hillary Clinton

01:06:10.440 during her

01:06:11.040 08.

01:06:12.720 And now

01:06:13.340 just part of

01:06:14.940 the Clinton

01:06:15.460 Global Initiative,

01:06:16.600 the Clinton

01:06:16.900 Foundation, and

01:06:17.840 the Clinton

01:06:18.200 Health Access

01:06:19.220 Initiative.

01:06:20.600 Something is

01:06:21.440 very wrong.

01:06:23.300 And I don't

01:06:23.740 think it's just

01:06:24.700 going to stop

01:06:25.260 at Debbie

01:06:25.660 Wasserman

01:06:26.100 Schultz.

01:06:26.620 If there was

01:06:27.160 ever an

01:06:27.600 honest, this

01:06:28.360 would go to

01:06:29.320 the Clintons.

01:06:30.380 Something is

01:06:31.140 very wrong

01:06:31.980 here.

01:06:33.780 Sure sounds

01:06:34.380 like it.

01:06:34.900 Let me just

01:06:35.260 say one more

01:06:35.680 time.

01:06:36.380 Article 5.

01:06:38.160 Attention

01:06:38.620 America.

01:06:39.520 Article 5.

01:06:43.040 Get involved

01:06:43.800 in our, these

01:06:44.340 people, they're

01:06:44.740 not going to

01:06:45.060 clean this up.

01:06:46.460 And if it's

01:06:47.280 happening on

01:06:47.780 one side, you

01:06:48.420 can bet it's

01:06:49.100 happening on

01:06:49.540 the other

01:06:49.800 side too.

01:06:50.260 the Democrats

01:06:53.140 are not

01:06:53.860 unique to

01:06:54.720 corruption,

01:06:55.800 Nixon.

01:06:56.640 They are

01:06:57.340 not unique.

01:07:00.080 What is it

01:07:00.960 that we don't

01:07:01.540 know about?

01:07:03.560 I'm on a

01:07:04.040 one.

01:07:05.520 I'm sure

01:07:06.140 Hillary will

01:07:06.800 talk about it

01:07:07.720 a little bit

01:07:08.140 in her new

01:07:08.680 book coming

01:07:10.300 out.

01:07:10.760 Her memoir

01:07:11.360 entitled

01:07:12.140 What

01:07:12.900 Happened.

01:07:13.420 What Happened.

01:07:15.000 That's the

01:07:15.700 name of her

01:07:16.120 book.

01:07:16.540 What Happened.

01:07:18.760 That should

01:07:19.380 send, that

01:07:20.220 should sell

01:07:20.920 tens of

01:07:21.660 copies.

01:07:22.520 And it

01:07:23.080 will.

01:07:23.940 Her last

01:07:24.700 one did.

01:07:25.160 She got an

01:07:25.760 advance of

01:07:26.320 7 million

01:07:26.860 for, remember?

01:07:28.260 Yeah.

01:07:28.860 It wound up

01:07:29.800 selling, I

01:07:31.080 don't think,

01:07:31.500 even 100,000

01:07:32.220 copies.

01:07:32.660 How much

01:07:33.600 did this one,

01:07:34.640 how much did

01:07:35.160 they give her

01:07:35.640 in advance?

01:07:36.320 Oh, I'm

01:07:36.760 sure a fortune.

01:07:37.660 I mean, you

01:07:37.940 know, look,

01:07:38.360 it's in the

01:07:38.640 millions.

01:07:39.080 But again, you

01:07:39.640 got to ask

01:07:40.120 yourself why.

01:07:41.400 It's got a

01:07:41.800 last one.

01:07:42.340 Her last one.

01:07:42.440 I mean, this

01:07:43.280 is her, her

01:07:44.220 dying.

01:07:45.360 It's not her

01:07:45.980 writing a book

01:07:46.580 saying like,

01:07:47.320 here's the

01:07:47.880 things that I

01:07:48.520 will put into

01:07:49.120 plan when I'm

01:07:49.880 elected.

01:07:50.160 It's her telling

01:07:50.920 the backstory and

01:07:52.120 the behind the

01:07:52.720 scenes.

01:07:53.080 And even though

01:07:53.460 you're not going

01:07:54.000 to get the

01:07:54.260 real story, it's

01:07:55.420 still going to

01:07:55.760 sell some

01:07:56.060 copies.

01:07:57.000 These look

01:07:58.100 backs always

01:07:58.760 do.

01:07:59.180 I mean, even

01:07:59.440 when they're

01:07:59.680 boring elections,

01:08:00.840 the look backs

01:08:01.720 sell some

01:08:02.300 copies.

01:08:03.040 What

01:08:03.400 happened?

01:08:04.180 What

01:08:04.360 happened?

01:08:05.680 I like that's

01:08:06.520 a good name

01:08:06.820 in the book.

01:08:07.380 I don't know.

01:08:07.800 Maybe you

01:08:08.080 should have

01:08:08.280 gone to a few

01:08:08.840 of the states

01:08:09.280 you lost.

01:08:10.300 How about

01:08:10.500 that?

01:08:10.680 That may

01:08:10.980 have been

01:08:11.220 what happened.

01:08:12.880 Maybe you

01:08:13.500 shouldn't have

01:08:13.780 been so corrupt,

01:08:14.580 you and your

01:08:14.840 husband.

01:08:15.380 How about

01:08:15.680 this?

01:08:15.880 Don't be

01:08:16.220 eternally

01:08:16.680 awful.

01:08:18.600 Learn how to

01:08:19.380 give a speech

01:08:20.040 in a likable

01:08:20.680 way.

01:08:22.540 There's three

01:08:23.020 chapters.

01:08:24.880 Well, we

01:08:25.460 almost have

01:08:25.920 this thing

01:08:26.320 written.

01:08:28.360 Some reports

01:08:29.280 claim she

01:08:29.980 received

01:08:30.620 $14 million

01:08:32.960 for hard

01:08:33.480 choices.

01:08:34.460 That's the

01:08:34.680 last one.

01:08:35.920 $14 million.

01:08:38.600 I thought it

01:08:39.080 was seven.

01:08:39.640 It was

01:08:40.120 double that.

01:08:40.980 I don't

01:08:41.200 know.

01:08:41.480 That's what

01:08:41.860 some reports

01:08:42.440 are saying

01:08:42.780 in this

01:08:43.080 story.

01:08:43.460 Wow.

01:08:43.940 $14 million.

01:08:45.140 Well, it

01:08:45.900 is, Pat, it

01:08:47.240 was seven

01:08:47.800 after taxes,

01:08:49.320 you know.

01:08:49.820 Oh, sure.

01:08:50.420 And especially

01:08:50.940 with now the

01:08:51.640 Republicans and

01:08:52.720 with Steve

01:08:53.400 Bannon, who

01:08:54.860 wants to

01:08:55.340 raise taxes on

01:08:57.860 millionaires from

01:08:59.740 39% to

01:09:02.200 44%.

01:09:03.520 Now, let me

01:09:04.100 just tell you

01:09:04.520 something.

01:09:05.280 Do you think

01:09:05.900 millionaires care?

01:09:07.820 New money

01:09:08.420 cares.

01:09:09.520 Millionaires

01:09:10.000 don't care.

01:09:10.720 Zuckerberg

01:09:11.100 doesn't care.

01:09:11.940 Trump doesn't

01:09:12.460 care.

01:09:13.020 None of the

01:09:13.320 people who

01:09:14.820 actually have

01:09:16.140 lots of

01:09:17.420 money, new

01:09:18.360 money does.

01:09:20.700 New money

01:09:21.460 does.

01:09:22.060 I still think

01:09:23.840 you care.

01:09:24.380 I don't care.

01:09:25.180 It's your money.

01:09:26.100 You've earned it.

01:09:26.920 It's 5% of a

01:09:27.860 billion dollars.

01:09:28.380 But you will

01:09:28.860 find a way.

01:09:30.800 Yes, you'll live.

01:09:31.460 But you'll find a

01:09:32.620 way around it.

01:09:34.120 You'll just find a

01:09:34.820 way around it.

01:09:35.520 You'll get paid in

01:09:36.500 other ways.

01:09:37.240 It'll go to

01:09:37.840 trust funds.

01:09:38.700 You don't care.

01:09:41.460 Yes, you do.

01:09:43.100 But you'll find a

01:09:44.340 way.

01:09:44.780 That group will

01:09:46.720 find a way to

01:09:47.900 save hundreds of

01:09:49.820 millions of

01:09:50.480 dollars.

01:09:50.880 I guarantee it.

01:09:52.520 So it's nothing

01:09:53.440 but a show.

01:09:55.440 You don't take

01:09:56.340 somebody.

01:09:56.940 Who has a right

01:09:58.080 to take 44%

01:10:00.460 of your money.

01:10:03.720 44% of what

01:10:05.780 you earn.

01:10:06.780 And that's not

01:10:07.320 including what

01:10:08.360 they'll be paying

01:10:09.020 in Social Security

01:10:09.920 all the way.

01:10:10.680 It doesn't include

01:10:11.420 what they're paying

01:10:12.180 in other taxes,

01:10:14.660 their state taxes.

01:10:16.420 44% in one tax

01:10:18.880 to the federal

01:10:19.400 government.

01:10:19.960 It's immoral.

01:10:20.900 Absolutely immoral.

01:10:22.660 And if you ask

01:10:23.560 people what is

01:10:24.800 fair on the street

01:10:25.940 and you tell

01:10:26.880 them, hey,

01:10:27.720 should they have

01:10:28.200 to pay 44%

01:10:29.800 and another 12%?

01:10:31.940 Should they have

01:10:32.520 to pay 60%

01:10:35.240 of their salary?

01:10:35.880 Everybody says

01:10:36.600 no.

01:10:36.980 That's outrageous.

01:10:37.820 There was a great

01:10:38.160 example of this

01:10:38.800 yesterday with

01:10:39.800 Deborah Messing,

01:10:40.740 the actress,

01:10:41.760 who saw the story

01:10:43.440 of Steve Bannon

01:10:44.100 wants a 44% tax

01:10:45.500 on the wealthy

01:10:46.760 and she wrote,

01:10:47.880 this is disgusting!

01:10:49.640 Because she,

01:10:50.860 as an idiot,

01:10:52.020 thought he was

01:10:52.600 lowering the rate

01:10:53.440 to 44%.

01:10:54.400 Because she's a

01:10:56.020 moron,

01:10:57.200 she thought it was

01:10:57.840 44% and that was

01:10:58.900 lowering it.

01:10:59.520 She didn't realize

01:11:00.240 it was raising it.

01:11:01.280 Oh my gosh.

01:11:02.480 Alright,

01:11:02.920 now this.

01:11:03.920 I want to tell you

01:11:04.800 about Antonio.

01:11:06.640 Antonio got on

01:11:07.460 to realestateagentsitrust.com

01:11:09.440 and within the week

01:11:10.840 he met his agent.

01:11:12.380 That weekend,

01:11:13.340 Antonio's agent

01:11:14.080 had four visits

01:11:15.640 lined up.

01:11:17.300 On Tuesday,

01:11:18.740 he had an offer

01:11:19.420 for his home.

01:11:21.320 You want to sell

01:11:21.800 your home?

01:11:23.500 realestateagentsitrust.com

01:11:24.620 They're going to find

01:11:25.240 a great real estate

01:11:26.340 agent in your town.

01:11:28.100 Worked for Antonio,

01:11:29.620 will work for you.

01:11:31.460 Over a thousand

01:11:32.480 agents all over America

01:11:33.600 who are just like you.

01:11:35.320 They're bond,

01:11:36.060 they look you in the

01:11:37.360 eye,

01:11:37.580 they give you a

01:11:38.040 handshake,

01:11:38.440 their bond is their

01:11:39.080 word.

01:11:39.840 They're fully vetted

01:11:40.720 and handpicked by

01:11:41.760 my team for their

01:11:42.900 knowledge,

01:11:43.340 their skill,

01:11:43.880 their track record,

01:11:44.840 their decency.

01:11:46.740 Thousands of families

01:11:47.560 have already put

01:11:48.120 real estate agents

01:11:48.860 I trust to the test.

01:11:49.740 The results have

01:11:50.240 been remarkable.

01:11:51.300 Just ask Antonio.

01:11:53.620 Sold in one weekend.

01:11:55.860 realestateagentsitrust.com

01:11:56.800 That's realestateagentsitrust.com

01:11:58.980 This is the Glenn Beck

01:12:02.840 program.

01:12:04.560 Mercury.

01:12:08.120 You know what America

01:12:09.260 needs?

01:12:12.360 Friction.

01:12:13.540 They need the book

01:12:14.320 Friction.

01:12:16.000 Jeff Rosenblum is going

01:12:18.580 to be joining us.

01:12:19.200 He's the author,

01:12:19.980 co-author of the book

01:12:20.980 Friction.

01:12:22.400 He was a founding

01:12:24.260 partner in something

01:12:25.340 called Questus.

01:12:26.880 They work on brands.

01:12:29.860 American Express,

01:12:31.120 Apple,

01:12:31.580 Bloomberg,

01:12:32.160 Capital One,

01:12:32.840 Discovery Channel,

01:12:33.700 Disney,

01:12:34.340 ESPN,

01:12:35.200 Ford,

01:12:35.600 General Mills,

01:12:36.440 Suzuki,

01:12:37.060 Motorcycle.

01:12:37.680 I mean,

01:12:38.240 you name it,

01:12:39.560 they've done it.

01:12:41.180 And what we have in

01:12:43.940 America is a passion

01:12:45.400 brand.

01:12:46.000 But that's really

01:12:48.220 not what's,

01:12:49.460 we're adding all

01:12:50.760 kinds of friction

01:12:51.640 in using this

01:12:52.860 passion brand.

01:12:54.500 This is a book

01:12:55.580 that was written

01:12:56.220 for people who

01:12:57.000 are managers,

01:12:58.300 who are entrepreneurs,

01:13:00.100 who are CEOs.

01:13:01.660 I think it's one

01:13:02.620 of the best books

01:13:03.160 I have read in a

01:13:04.020 very,

01:13:04.640 very long time

01:13:05.660 because it proves

01:13:07.720 it out just the way

01:13:08.700 it's even written

01:13:09.560 and it's readability.

01:13:12.900 It is a book

01:13:14.060 you can't buy

01:13:15.060 digitally.

01:13:16.520 Because you

01:13:17.640 wouldn't get that

01:13:18.500 point until you

01:13:19.740 pick up this big,

01:13:20.800 thick,

01:13:21.160 heavy book that

01:13:21.800 you're like,

01:13:22.280 oh geez,

01:13:22.640 I gotta read this.

01:13:23.900 And then you

01:13:24.360 find yourself,

01:13:25.640 you know,

01:13:26.000 three hours later,

01:13:27.320 three quarters of

01:13:28.060 the way through

01:13:29.380 the book and

01:13:29.840 you're like,

01:13:30.220 this is great.

01:13:32.860 He's gonna talk

01:13:33.700 to us a little

01:13:35.460 bit about the

01:13:37.040 friction that is

01:13:38.060 happening because

01:13:38.940 the world is

01:13:39.700 changing so rapidly.

01:13:42.340 And if you are

01:13:43.440 somebody that

01:13:44.700 wants to change

01:13:45.600 the world,

01:13:47.100 whether it is

01:13:48.000 in your company

01:13:48.860 or in your

01:13:50.960 family or in

01:13:51.960 the country,

01:13:53.200 you need to

01:13:53.740 listen to the

01:13:54.700 next interview

01:13:56.040 that is coming up.

01:13:57.420 Jeff Rosenblum is

01:13:58.340 in the green room

01:13:59.020 now.

01:13:59.740 Passion Brands in

01:14:00.880 the Age of

01:14:01.540 Disruption.

01:14:02.900 Friction is the

01:14:03.500 name of the book.

01:14:04.280 We have a quick

01:14:04.740 update on the news

01:14:05.740 of the day you

01:14:06.720 may be interested

01:14:07.220 in.

01:14:08.180 Joint Chiefs of

01:14:09.320 Staff Chairman

01:14:10.180 tells military

01:14:10.980 there will be

01:14:11.740 no transgender

01:14:12.760 policy modification

01:14:13.900 until specific

01:14:15.600 direction from the

01:14:16.500 president.

01:14:17.260 So the tweet

01:14:17.800 basically at this

01:14:18.860 point means nothing.

01:14:20.000 They have not

01:14:20.440 informed the

01:14:21.060 military of any

01:14:21.780 of it and

01:14:22.560 there's nothing

01:14:23.160 changing as of

01:14:24.000 this moment.

01:14:24.520 He did it because

01:14:25.460 he needed to win

01:14:26.780 a vote yesterday

01:14:27.640 in the House.

01:14:28.960 That's all this

01:14:29.760 was about yesterday,

01:14:30.860 was trying to win

01:14:32.000 a vote in the

01:14:33.000 House and it

01:14:35.440 caused an awful

01:14:36.320 lot of chaos

01:14:37.220 in the Pentagon

01:14:38.160 and the media

01:14:41.200 was just chasing

01:14:41.960 their tails yesterday.

01:14:45.040 The Glenn Beck

01:14:46.380 Program.

01:14:48.540 Mercury.

01:15:02.800 The Blaze Radio

01:15:04.220 Network.

01:15:06.320 On Demand.

01:15:10.760 The whole world

01:15:12.220 is changing

01:15:13.500 and really

01:15:14.820 in an exciting

01:15:16.240 and dynamic way

01:15:17.520 if you understand

01:15:19.320 that the bullcrap

01:15:22.300 of yesterday,

01:15:23.460 which Washington

01:15:24.180 hasn't figured out

01:15:25.040 yet,

01:15:25.480 the bullcrap

01:15:26.400 of yesterday,

01:15:27.280 the lies of

01:15:28.040 yesterday,

01:15:29.040 and the systems

01:15:31.440 that create

01:15:33.240 friction

01:15:34.280 and make your

01:15:36.000 life complicated.

01:15:36.940 Just don't work

01:15:37.600 anymore.

01:15:38.500 Nobody wants

01:15:39.060 them.

01:15:39.800 Don't prop

01:15:40.340 them up.

01:15:41.480 Get out of

01:15:42.200 that and find

01:15:43.600 passion.

01:15:44.900 Passion brands

01:15:45.900 and friction.

01:15:47.600 We're going to

01:15:47.880 talk about that

01:15:48.600 with a guy who

01:15:49.660 knows it quite

01:15:50.400 well.

01:15:51.160 Beginning right

01:15:51.900 now.

01:15:53.220 I will make

01:15:54.560 you stand.

01:15:55.700 I will raise

01:15:56.720 my voice.

01:15:57.960 I will hold

01:15:58.900 your hand.

01:16:00.380 Because we are

01:16:01.460 one.

01:16:02.240 I will beat

01:16:03.220 my drum.

01:16:04.440 I have made

01:16:05.440 my choice.

01:16:06.700 We will overcome.

01:16:09.000 Because we are

01:16:10.340 one.

01:16:10.640 The fusion of

01:16:12.140 entertainment and

01:16:13.440 enlightenment.

01:16:14.680 This is the

01:16:15.960 Glenn Beck

01:16:17.380 Program.

01:16:19.440 Name of the

01:16:20.160 book that I've

01:16:20.540 been telling you

01:16:20.960 about for weeks

01:16:21.760 and I'm thrilled

01:16:22.240 to be able to

01:16:22.680 have Jeff

01:16:23.040 Rosenblum.

01:16:23.680 He is one of

01:16:24.300 the co-authors

01:16:25.800 of the book

01:16:26.300 Friction,

01:16:26.940 Passion Brands

01:16:27.880 in the Age

01:16:28.440 of Disruption.

01:16:29.700 It is one of

01:16:30.660 those books that

01:16:31.580 you read and

01:16:32.820 you're like,

01:16:33.380 geez,

01:16:33.780 how could I

01:16:35.420 not know

01:16:36.440 that?

01:16:36.680 How did I

01:16:37.020 not think

01:16:37.920 that?

01:16:38.200 How is this

01:16:39.660 all of a sudden?

01:16:40.400 It's one of

01:16:40.740 those things

01:16:41.200 that somebody

01:16:41.680 invents something

01:16:42.360 and you're like,

01:16:43.280 of course.

01:16:44.440 How come I

01:16:45.360 didn't invent

01:16:46.020 that?

01:16:47.260 I want you to

01:16:48.040 know that Jeff

01:16:49.060 is not here to

01:16:49.900 sell books.

01:16:51.580 I highly

01:16:52.780 recommend you

01:16:53.340 buy his book,

01:16:54.560 but he's not

01:16:55.660 taking any of

01:16:56.240 the money from

01:16:56.740 it.

01:16:56.920 It's actually

01:16:57.300 going to

01:16:57.580 something called

01:16:58.000 Special Spectators,

01:16:59.040 which we hope

01:16:59.580 to talk about

01:17:00.100 a little bit

01:17:00.480 later.

01:17:01.080 He will also

01:17:01.600 be with us

01:17:02.040 on Blaze TV

01:17:02.840 for a special

01:17:03.900 episode tonight

01:17:05.000 at 5 o'clock.

01:17:06.700 So he's not

01:17:07.680 here to make

01:17:08.180 any money.

01:17:08.680 He's here

01:17:08.960 to change

01:17:09.380 some lives

01:17:10.520 and you

01:17:11.060 have

01:17:11.500 dramatically

01:17:13.160 impacted my

01:17:14.240 thinking since

01:17:15.340 I picked up

01:17:15.780 your book.

01:17:16.240 So it's great

01:17:16.600 to have you

01:17:16.880 here, Jeff.

01:17:17.240 Thank you

01:17:17.480 for having

01:17:17.740 me.

01:17:18.000 I appreciate

01:17:18.320 it.

01:17:18.680 So tell

01:17:19.440 me,

01:17:20.380 I guess

01:17:20.760 we just

01:17:21.500 need to

01:17:21.800 start at

01:17:22.500 the brands

01:17:23.760 of the past

01:17:24.440 and the

01:17:24.700 brands now.

01:17:25.340 Passion

01:17:25.680 brands.

01:17:26.560 What is

01:17:26.840 it?

01:17:27.540 Well,

01:17:27.840 passion

01:17:28.140 brands are

01:17:28.600 the brands

01:17:29.040 that absolutely

01:17:30.060 dominate the

01:17:31.320 competition,

01:17:32.020 right?

01:17:32.200 They don't

01:17:32.480 just have

01:17:32.860 customers.

01:17:33.620 They have

01:17:34.000 an army

01:17:34.640 of evangelists.

01:17:35.980 These are

01:17:36.240 the folks who

01:17:36.780 are at

01:17:37.060 the bars,

01:17:37.880 at the

01:17:38.160 restaurants,

01:17:38.760 at the

01:17:39.040 dinner table.

01:17:39.760 They sit

01:17:40.060 around the

01:17:40.460 campfire.

01:17:41.380 They're up

01:17:41.620 on their

01:17:41.880 social media

01:17:42.520 channels.

01:17:43.120 They've got

01:17:43.380 the t-shirts.

01:17:44.200 They've got

01:17:44.440 the hats.

01:17:45.040 They're like

01:17:45.320 walking

01:17:45.800 billboards.

01:17:46.880 And they're

01:17:47.360 actively

01:17:47.780 proselytizing

01:17:48.980 for brands.

01:17:50.560 So you

01:17:51.160 talk about

01:17:51.800 one passion

01:17:52.380 brand that

01:17:52.900 really has

01:17:54.540 boggled my

01:17:55.560 mind until I

01:17:56.500 read your

01:17:57.200 book.

01:17:57.780 But I want

01:17:58.440 to ask you

01:17:59.180 some questions

01:17:59.680 about it.

01:18:01.100 And that is

01:18:01.520 Yeti.

01:18:02.160 Yeah.

01:18:02.980 Coolers.

01:18:04.060 Great coolers.

01:18:05.520 Great coolers.

01:18:06.300 The best.

01:18:06.960 But what is

01:18:07.740 it?

01:18:07.900 Four times

01:18:08.680 the price

01:18:09.420 of a good

01:18:10.480 cooler?

01:18:11.040 Yeah.

01:18:11.640 And I've

01:18:13.040 often wondered

01:18:13.900 people who

01:18:15.020 buy this,

01:18:16.280 they become

01:18:16.980 evangelists,

01:18:18.420 and it's a

01:18:19.440 cooler.

01:18:20.320 And I wonder

01:18:21.040 how much of

01:18:21.900 that is because

01:18:22.700 it truly is

01:18:23.820 absolutely great,

01:18:25.120 and how much

01:18:26.100 of that is

01:18:26.820 to soothe the

01:18:28.220 cognitive

01:18:28.720 dissidence in

01:18:29.520 their head of,

01:18:30.520 I just paid

01:18:31.740 four times as

01:18:32.940 much, and

01:18:33.820 everybody who

01:18:34.500 doesn't have

01:18:35.220 one says,

01:18:36.000 what the hell

01:18:36.640 is wrong with

01:18:37.340 you?

01:18:37.860 Yeah.

01:18:38.160 Does that play

01:18:38.780 a role in

01:18:39.260 that at all?

01:18:39.960 Well, absolutely.

01:18:40.840 The answer is

01:18:41.520 both.

01:18:41.880 So to dial it

01:18:42.560 back, and then

01:18:43.180 we'll talk about

01:18:43.780 Yeti, passion

01:18:45.120 brands are built

01:18:45.900 by fighting

01:18:46.500 friction.

01:18:47.380 Friction is

01:18:47.880 anything that

01:18:48.600 gets in the

01:18:48.960 way of what

01:18:49.320 you want to

01:18:49.760 accomplish in

01:18:50.400 life.

01:18:50.720 It's anything

01:18:51.040 that gets in

01:18:51.520 the way of

01:18:51.780 your hopes,

01:18:52.320 your dreams,

01:18:52.880 your aspirations,

01:18:53.860 or even your

01:18:54.600 mundane day-to-day

01:18:55.760 goals.

01:18:56.700 So when you

01:18:57.060 think about

01:18:57.500 Yeti, it's a

01:18:58.780 cooler for the

01:18:59.280 outdoors.

01:18:59.820 So by definition,

01:19:00.600 if you're using

01:19:01.300 it, you're going

01:19:01.860 on some sort

01:19:02.520 of outdoor

01:19:03.020 adventure.

01:19:03.960 So they fight

01:19:04.620 friction in two

01:19:05.420 ways.

01:19:05.820 The first is,

01:19:06.880 this cooler is

01:19:07.960 fundamentally better

01:19:09.140 than any other

01:19:10.160 cooler out there.

01:19:11.220 It's literally

01:19:11.900 certified Grizzly

01:19:13.600 Bear proof.

01:19:15.220 Now, the chances

01:19:16.640 of anyone actually

01:19:17.800 needing that type

01:19:18.740 of technology,

01:19:19.640 fairly negligible.

01:19:21.760 I'd like a

01:19:22.320 cooler that I

01:19:22.800 could pick up

01:19:23.260 and throw at

01:19:24.140 the Grizzly

01:19:24.700 Bear.

01:19:25.960 Mark it down,

01:19:26.960 Yeti, that's

01:19:27.420 the next product.

01:19:28.080 But it's

01:19:29.920 nice to know

01:19:30.580 if you're going

01:19:31.300 on that

01:19:31.920 adventure, that

01:19:32.980 product that

01:19:33.580 you're buying can

01:19:34.440 go further and

01:19:35.440 deeper and bigger

01:19:36.720 on an adventure.

01:19:37.940 But to your

01:19:38.660 point, it's not

01:19:39.460 just about the

01:19:40.880 cooler, it's about

01:19:41.860 the totality of

01:19:42.820 the experience.

01:19:43.660 And what they've

01:19:44.140 done that I love

01:19:45.220 is rather than

01:19:46.260 relying on a

01:19:46.940 bunch of

01:19:47.240 interruptive ads,

01:19:48.400 they've created

01:19:48.860 these incredible

01:19:49.820 videos.

01:19:51.040 Each of these

01:19:51.540 videos are about

01:19:52.280 eight minutes

01:19:52.860 long, and there

01:19:53.460 are dozens of

01:19:54.360 them, and they've

01:19:54.800 been watched

01:19:55.280 millions of times

01:19:56.680 over.

01:19:57.340 And what they

01:19:57.780 do is they

01:19:58.260 tell these

01:19:58.800 stories about

01:19:59.480 people who are

01:20:00.120 going on bigger

01:20:00.940 and bolder

01:20:01.580 adventures than

01:20:02.640 most people ever

01:20:03.560 will.

01:20:03.960 The world's

01:20:04.440 greatest fly

01:20:05.020 fisherman, the

01:20:05.540 world's greatest

01:20:05.980 ski guy, the

01:20:06.720 world's greatest

01:20:07.200 barbecue pit

01:20:08.100 master who

01:20:08.620 happens to be

01:20:09.060 an 89-year-old

01:20:09.980 woman named

01:20:11.020 Tootsie.

01:20:11.840 These are great

01:20:12.840 stories, and

01:20:13.720 they're not

01:20:14.060 products about

01:20:14.600 like, we're

01:20:15.100 Yeti, and

01:20:15.660 these are great

01:20:16.160 coolers.

01:20:16.660 Yeti doesn't

01:20:17.240 even appear

01:20:17.860 really in these

01:20:19.040 videos.

01:20:19.800 But what happens

01:20:20.680 is they give

01:20:21.520 us a vision, a

01:20:23.440 bigger and bolder

01:20:24.340 vision of

01:20:24.800 ourselves.

01:20:25.240 We all wake

01:20:26.240 up in the

01:20:26.620 morning wanting

01:20:27.400 to be better

01:20:28.080 than we were

01:20:28.700 the day before.

01:20:29.740 It's at the

01:20:30.120 heart of the

01:20:30.480 human experience.

01:20:31.260 It's what drives

01:20:31.860 capitalism.

01:20:33.000 So these great

01:20:33.700 videos help us

01:20:34.620 envision that.

01:20:35.740 And by the

01:20:36.060 way, I've

01:20:36.660 watched hours of

01:20:37.440 them.

01:20:37.620 Most people

01:20:38.080 will watch a

01:20:38.800 few of them.

01:20:39.620 The typical

01:20:40.300 interactive ad

01:20:41.600 experience is

01:20:42.800 1.6 seconds.

01:20:45.280 Compare that to

01:20:45.940 an 8-minute video

01:20:46.960 over and over.

01:20:48.300 I watched the

01:20:48.800 fly-fishing one.

01:20:49.780 It's 22 minutes.

01:20:51.100 I watched it.

01:20:52.560 Every second of

01:20:53.300 it.

01:20:53.440 Yeah.

01:20:53.780 And I don't

01:20:54.280 watch it.

01:20:55.160 Here's what I

01:20:55.900 do.

01:20:56.640 And I hear from

01:20:58.540 the guys, because

01:20:59.100 I'm not a sports

01:20:59.680 guy, but I hear

01:21:00.680 from the guys on

01:21:01.360 sports every

01:21:02.760 Monday, I hear,

01:21:06.320 oh, and I know

01:21:07.840 they're on ESPN

01:21:09.000 trying to just get

01:21:10.400 the six-second

01:21:11.360 clip and they have

01:21:12.740 to sit through the

01:21:13.580 commercial.

01:21:14.240 Yes.

01:21:14.540 That's not 22

01:21:15.120 minutes.

01:21:15.880 It's agonizing.

01:21:16.100 And that's just

01:21:17.000 in the way of

01:21:17.920 getting to their

01:21:18.500 six seconds.

01:21:19.480 Yeah.

01:21:20.280 Pre-rolls.

01:21:21.240 You know, the

01:21:22.700 advertising industry,

01:21:23.800 we keep making

01:21:24.880 ads, and the

01:21:25.980 audience keeps

01:21:27.080 running away.

01:21:28.300 Now, to be clear,

01:21:29.300 this is not about

01:21:30.180 the death of

01:21:30.820 advertising.

01:21:31.580 That false eulogy

01:21:32.380 has been written

01:21:33.020 before.

01:21:33.720 We're just asking

01:21:34.540 advertising to do

01:21:35.880 too much.

01:21:36.800 We can still do

01:21:37.580 incredible things

01:21:38.560 with advertising,

01:21:39.500 but increasingly,

01:21:40.600 those traditional

01:21:41.260 interruptive ads are

01:21:42.660 being ignored and

01:21:43.980 avoided.

01:21:44.580 In fact, just

01:21:45.980 removing the

01:21:46.740 friction from

01:21:47.540 your product will

01:21:48.800 do more than

01:21:49.820 any ad.

01:21:51.280 If you make a

01:21:52.580 truly great

01:21:53.400 product, and you

01:21:55.280 make it frictionless,

01:21:57.160 and not only, I

01:21:58.140 mean, let's go into

01:21:58.640 the passion brands a

01:21:59.680 little bit, of

01:22:00.900 finding that group

01:22:02.900 of people, and

01:22:04.380 let me ask you, do

01:22:05.880 you need to really

01:22:07.220 have an authentic

01:22:07.980 brand?

01:22:09.300 Does that need to

01:22:10.060 come from the

01:22:11.540 founders that are

01:22:12.460 like, you know

01:22:12.940 what, I wanted

01:22:13.820 this.

01:22:14.320 I know this.

01:22:15.980 This is great, and

01:22:16.600 I don't care if

01:22:17.080 anybody buys it, or

01:22:18.440 does it come from a

01:22:19.240 group of people who

01:22:19.960 are just scanning the

01:22:21.480 horizon and saying,

01:22:23.280 yeah, those people

01:22:25.120 over there, let's

01:22:26.080 come up with

01:22:26.900 something for there.

01:22:27.800 Does it matter?

01:22:29.240 Well, I think it

01:22:29.940 comes from both, but

01:22:30.980 most passion brands

01:22:32.200 that we see, and

01:22:32.900 they can be big

01:22:33.540 brands like Under

01:22:34.460 Armor, they can be

01:22:35.380 big brands like

01:22:36.660 Amazon, or some of

01:22:37.540 them are smaller

01:22:38.040 startups.

01:22:38.640 They tend to be run

01:22:39.600 by the founders

01:22:40.260 because they have a

01:22:40.980 strong vision, and

01:22:41.700 they don't want to

01:22:42.280 waver from that

01:22:43.160 vision.

01:22:43.540 But it can be

01:22:44.920 from large

01:22:45.480 established corporations.

01:22:47.320 One of the

01:22:47.660 interesting things

01:22:48.400 that we found is

01:22:49.720 that really the

01:22:50.720 key is to take

01:22:52.500 all your effort, and

01:22:53.880 instead of first

01:22:54.660 focusing it outward

01:22:55.800 at messaging, focus

01:22:57.640 it inward at your

01:22:58.860 own behaviors.

01:23:00.560 And a piece of

01:23:01.480 research we found is

01:23:02.320 what's called the

01:23:02.920 power score.

01:23:03.820 And they looked at

01:23:04.440 9 million different

01:23:05.500 data points.

01:23:06.160 They interviewed 20

01:23:07.640 self-made billionaires

01:23:08.760 and CEOs and army

01:23:09.980 generals and insurgents.

01:23:11.700 What they found is

01:23:13.200 only 1%, only 1%

01:23:15.800 of leaders are

01:23:17.060 great at what they

01:23:17.880 call the power

01:23:18.480 score, which is

01:23:19.240 establishing your

01:23:20.020 priorities, staffing

01:23:21.440 effectively, and

01:23:22.540 building internal

01:23:23.420 communication cadence.

01:23:24.960 So if you can have

01:23:26.320 great leadership, then

01:23:27.700 you can build a great

01:23:28.480 passion brand, and

01:23:29.240 ironically, you can

01:23:30.040 create great ads.

01:23:30.960 But you have to focus

01:23:31.980 inward before outward.

01:23:33.520 Some amazing things

01:23:36.780 that I just didn't

01:23:41.080 know.

01:23:41.540 For instance, some

01:23:42.400 stats in your book.

01:23:45.180 Let me just run

01:23:46.160 through a few of

01:23:46.940 them.

01:23:48.100 90% of all of the

01:23:49.920 data in the world

01:23:51.000 has been collected

01:23:52.180 in the last two

01:23:53.700 years.

01:23:55.240 That's astounding.

01:23:57.620 40 minutes in nature

01:23:59.120 every week will lower

01:24:01.000 ADHD by 50%.

01:24:03.620 Don't put your

01:24:06.400 smartphone or your

01:24:08.360 iPad next to your

01:24:09.620 bed.

01:24:11.140 Take that on.

01:24:12.920 That.

01:24:13.600 It's interesting

01:24:14.260 because so many

01:24:15.180 people loved it, and

01:24:15.940 we weren't sure if

01:24:16.580 that actually fits in

01:24:17.800 the book.

01:24:18.260 But what we tried to

01:24:18.980 do with the book is

01:24:19.680 look at industrial

01:24:21.060 friction, organizational

01:24:22.520 friction, and personal

01:24:23.740 friction.

01:24:24.380 And in that example, we

01:24:26.000 found this great story

01:24:26.740 about Keith Richards,

01:24:28.240 world's greatest guitar

01:24:29.240 player, or one of

01:24:30.180 people, and one

01:24:31.400 night, he's out

01:24:32.480 doing the one thing

01:24:33.340 that he does in this

01:24:34.060 world better than

01:24:35.320 play guitar.

01:24:36.480 He's partying like a

01:24:37.500 rock star.

01:24:38.560 And he passes out

01:24:39.540 cold, and he wakes up

01:24:40.780 the next day, and he's

01:24:42.080 got a song in his head.

01:24:43.620 And his guitar is

01:24:45.060 literally lying in bed

01:24:46.220 lovingly with him.

01:24:47.380 He grabs guitar, rolls

01:24:48.740 over, presses record on

01:24:49.920 his tape recorder, lays

01:24:51.100 down a few notes, passes

01:24:52.460 out cold again.

01:24:53.920 Wakes up a couple hours

01:24:55.020 later, presses play, and

01:24:57.240 he finds the guitar riff

01:24:58.480 for satisfaction.

01:25:00.180 He's waiting for him.

01:25:01.860 Of course, and it's

01:25:02.560 followed by the sound

01:25:03.360 of him snoring.

01:25:04.680 He's not even conscious

01:25:05.760 enough to press stop on

01:25:07.500 the recorder.

01:25:09.080 Paul McCartney had a

01:25:09.920 similar experience.

01:25:10.900 He woke up one day, and

01:25:11.780 he's got a song,

01:25:12.560 Scrambled Eggs, in his

01:25:13.620 head.

01:25:14.120 Can't stop with his song,

01:25:15.360 Scrambled Eggs.

01:25:15.860 He's turning to all his

01:25:16.580 bandmates, turning to all

01:25:17.440 his friends.

01:25:17.800 He's like, what song have I

01:25:19.080 ripped off here?

01:25:19.940 And they're like, dude,

01:25:21.020 you didn't.

01:25:21.620 It's your song.

01:25:22.440 It's Scrambled Eggs.

01:25:23.220 It's your original.

01:25:24.320 And thankfully, he went to

01:25:25.520 John Lennon.

01:25:26.120 He turned it from

01:25:26.900 Scrambled Eggs to

01:25:28.380 yesterday.

01:25:29.500 Scrambled Eggs.

01:25:31.340 Amazing.

01:25:32.000 Not quite as catchy when

01:25:33.140 you're talking about

01:25:33.720 breakfast food, right?

01:25:35.040 Right.

01:25:35.380 So, and it didn't only

01:25:36.740 happen to rock stars.

01:25:37.580 The guy who figured out

01:25:38.540 the periodic table of the

01:25:39.620 elements, the guy who

01:25:40.440 figured out the double

01:25:41.240 helix with DNA.

01:25:43.320 All of this happened first

01:25:44.700 thing in the morning when

01:25:45.460 people woke up.

01:25:46.660 And what happens is, in

01:25:47.980 your brain, you've got

01:25:48.840 something called alpha

01:25:50.320 waves.

01:25:50.920 It's the most powerful form

01:25:52.440 of cognitive creativity that

01:25:54.460 you have.

01:25:55.260 This is where you can

01:25:56.020 think of some big, bold

01:25:57.220 breakthrough ideas.

01:25:58.160 It's the same thing that

01:25:58.840 you get if you're in a hot

01:25:59.720 shower, a hot bath, you're

01:26:01.240 in traffic for a while, your

01:26:02.420 alpha waves kick in.

01:26:03.400 You start ignoring all that

01:26:04.480 crap that's in your head.

01:26:06.560 Now, the issue is, to your

01:26:08.040 point, 72% of us go to bed

01:26:10.860 with our cell phone lying next

01:26:12.880 to us.

01:26:13.540 50% of us, the very first

01:26:15.140 thing that we do is we check

01:26:16.520 it.

01:26:17.020 One-third of women, before

01:26:18.200 they even go to the bathroom,

01:26:19.640 they check social media.

01:26:21.620 The problem is, when you do

01:26:22.960 that, you completely shut

01:26:24.340 off those alpha waves.

01:26:26.220 You lose that opportunity to

01:26:28.120 have that cognitive creativity.

01:26:29.600 And why is that?

01:26:30.880 Because it kicks in your

01:26:32.000 fight-or-flight system, which

01:26:33.500 is something we learned about

01:26:34.440 in high school, right?

01:26:35.280 It's when the blood flow

01:26:36.760 changes.

01:26:37.280 It used to be something that

01:26:38.660 kept us from getting eaten by

01:26:39.840 woolly mammoths.

01:26:40.700 Now it's the type of thing that

01:26:41.720 keeps us by getting run over

01:26:43.320 by a car, right?

01:26:44.560 Your subconscious takes over,

01:26:46.200 your brain pivots, you get

01:26:47.300 different chemicals like

01:26:48.300 adrenaline and cortisol in

01:26:49.740 there.

01:26:50.300 And that's what happens with

01:26:51.300 your cell phone, because

01:26:52.160 there's stresses.

01:26:52.960 Your buddy on Facebook who

01:26:54.960 just went on a better

01:26:55.680 vacation than you'll ever go

01:26:56.960 on, that's stressful, right?

01:26:58.600 The server that's on fire,

01:26:59.740 the contract that didn't get

01:27:00.840 signed, whatever it is on

01:27:01.860 email, that's all stress.

01:27:03.660 So you're turning off that

01:27:04.900 creativity and you're creating

01:27:06.260 stress.

01:27:07.200 Now here's the interesting

01:27:08.080 point.

01:27:09.500 They used to think that your

01:27:10.600 brain was your brain and

01:27:12.380 that's all you got.

01:27:13.600 It turns out that there's a

01:27:14.880 high degree of plasticity in

01:27:17.220 your brain, which means it

01:27:18.940 can change.

01:27:20.000 Just like that cheap analogy

01:27:21.220 that says your brain is like a

01:27:22.460 muscle, you got to work it.

01:27:23.660 Turns out it's true.

01:27:24.740 You can actually change the

01:27:26.140 size and shape of certain

01:27:27.220 areas of your brain and it

01:27:28.520 happens very quickly.

01:27:30.000 So when you go to your mobile

01:27:31.080 device first thing in the

01:27:32.020 morning, you turn off the

01:27:32.860 creativity, you turn on the

01:27:34.000 fight or flight.

01:27:35.020 For the rest of the day,

01:27:36.340 you're not going to be as

01:27:37.480 creative.

01:27:38.300 So with the 90 million bits of

01:27:40.640 information, 90% of the data

01:27:42.180 that's been collected in the

01:27:43.020 past two years, everybody has

01:27:45.420 unprecedented access to data

01:27:47.940 and technology.

01:27:50.080 Creativity is the ultimate

01:27:51.720 competitive advantage and you

01:27:53.420 have to feed your creativity

01:27:55.380 just like you have to work out

01:27:57.160 your body at the gym.

01:27:58.640 When we come back, I want you

01:27:59.520 to talk about...

01:28:00.200 We know all about the gym.

01:28:01.280 That's for sure.

01:28:01.980 You talked to a good crew.

01:28:03.220 I don't know.

01:28:04.500 That's why I went there.

01:28:05.500 I did say...

01:28:06.140 So you're speaking our

01:28:07.580 language.

01:28:08.620 When we come back, I want you

01:28:09.620 to talk about monkeys and how

01:28:13.720 this relates to monkeys and

01:28:15.540 then back to us in just a

01:28:17.600 second.

01:28:18.220 First, let me tell you about

01:28:18.980 our sponsor this half hour.

01:28:20.980 It is American Financing.

01:28:23.080 Here's the thing.

01:28:23.720 So many people, when they

01:28:25.220 talk about buying a new

01:28:26.840 house, they will say things

01:28:28.400 like, we find out if the

01:28:30.400 bank's going to give us the

01:28:31.540 loan.

01:28:32.800 Give you the loan?

01:28:34.040 They're not giving you the

01:28:35.440 loan.

01:28:35.780 They're selling you the loan.

01:28:37.160 But the entire system has been

01:28:39.280 set up to feel like you're

01:28:41.700 going in and they're going to

01:28:43.300 give you the loan.

01:28:44.720 You're paying an extraordinary

01:28:46.280 high, large amount of money

01:28:48.380 for that loan.

01:28:50.300 Let me flip this.

01:28:52.200 American Financing, they do not

01:28:54.640 take kickbacks from the banks

01:28:57.040 because the banks have these,

01:28:58.520 they're called instruments,

01:28:59.540 loans, and they want certain

01:29:01.960 loans to be sold to people, not

01:29:04.620 given to you, sold to people, so

01:29:07.100 they can make the maximum amount

01:29:08.720 of money.

01:29:09.240 And so what the banks have,

01:29:10.860 usually, and all of the

01:29:12.020 different kinds of lenders,

01:29:12.820 is somebody that is on a

01:29:15.400 commission.

01:29:16.380 You sell the loan that that

01:29:18.500 bank is trying to push, you're

01:29:20.720 going to get extra commission,

01:29:21.880 so you make more money.

01:29:23.460 The first thing that American

01:29:25.240 Financing did when they set

01:29:26.440 themselves up was get rid of all

01:29:28.060 commissions.

01:29:28.780 They don't work for the banks or

01:29:30.800 any of their partners for

01:29:32.060 lending.

01:29:32.900 They work for you.

01:29:34.200 So when you go in to get a

01:29:35.880 loan, you're going to find the

01:29:36.900 loan that is right for you.

01:29:39.160 Reverse mortgages now are also

01:29:40.840 available.

01:29:41.360 Do your own homework on

01:29:42.160 reverse mortgages, but call

01:29:44.300 800-906-2440, 1-800-906-2440,

01:29:50.900 or you can go to

01:29:52.040 AmericanFinancing.net.

01:29:53.960 These people are looking out for

01:29:55.560 you.

01:29:56.800 AmericanFinancing.net.

01:29:58.300 American Financing, NMLS,

01:29:59.760 1-82334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

01:30:04.320 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:30:10.720 Mercury.

01:30:14.880 888-727-BECK.

01:30:17.160 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:30:19.940 A game-changing book in your

01:30:22.800 thinking is Friction, Passion Brands

01:30:27.300 in the Age of Disruption.

01:30:28.660 There is so much friction in our

01:30:32.900 lives from chaos, just from the

01:30:36.940 news, just trying to understand the

01:30:39.120 political revolution.

01:30:40.420 It's all friction.

01:30:42.460 And being able to reduce that and

01:30:44.080 navigate through that is really

01:30:47.000 hard.

01:30:48.160 And I think people are getting really

01:30:49.840 frustrated in some ways with life,

01:30:51.680 and they're just tuning out.

01:30:53.300 They're just stopping.

01:30:54.120 And that's really because the media

01:30:56.960 or the politicians or the parties or

01:30:59.300 whatever you're dealing with just

01:31:00.800 are not changing.

01:31:02.080 They're holding on to the old system.

01:31:06.800 Yeah.

01:31:07.100 And it doesn't work.

01:31:08.720 I was blown away.

01:31:09.780 Where did you get the monkey thing

01:31:10.820 and then explain the monkey thing?

01:31:12.580 Yeah, it's interesting.

01:31:13.480 When I was writing the book, we set up

01:31:15.100 a research team.

01:31:15.940 I read literally tens of thousands of

01:31:17.740 data points, thousands of pages of

01:31:19.300 research, and I'm a complete numbnut.

01:31:21.680 I barely graduated college, right?

01:31:23.300 But I'm hanging out with my really

01:31:25.180 smart friend.

01:31:26.340 He's a PhD at Stanford.

01:31:29.240 He's a neuroscientist, and he's telling

01:31:30.580 me about this study that they conduct

01:31:32.280 all the time.

01:31:33.720 And what happens is when you go to get

01:31:35.820 your PhD, they often give you this

01:31:39.260 experiment where they take an electric

01:31:41.100 probe, and they put it into a monkey's

01:31:44.360 brain to read what's going on inside

01:31:48.000 that brain.

01:31:48.760 And then what they do is they play this

01:31:50.560 loud, blaring, obnoxious sound in the

01:31:54.440 monkey's ear.

01:31:55.640 And what you see on the readout is not

01:31:57.940 surprising.

01:31:58.660 When you play that awful sound, you get

01:32:00.320 a very strong and very negative reaction

01:32:02.600 from the monkey's brain.

01:32:04.540 So then they repeat the experiment.

01:32:06.520 They play that loud, blaring, obnoxious

01:32:08.680 sound, and what you find, again, is not

01:32:11.380 surprising.

01:32:12.260 They have a very strong and very negative

01:32:14.040 reaction.

01:32:14.540 But what was absolutely shocking to me

01:32:17.460 is that if you repeat the experiment a

01:32:19.980 few times over, and then you look at the

01:32:22.560 readout, the reaction looks like the side

01:32:25.000 of a cliff.

01:32:26.360 The monkey's brain literally stops reacting

01:32:29.240 to this awful sound because the monkey, at a

01:32:33.120 structural level, knows that it needs to

01:32:36.100 focus on other things in life.

01:32:38.500 Food, water, shelter, fornication, right?

01:32:41.280 If it continues to respond so strongly to

01:32:44.580 that stimulus, it literally can't survive.

01:32:47.760 It's called repetition suppression.

01:32:50.860 So are we in, before we go into this on the

01:32:54.600 decisions that we make in every day, but are

01:32:56.660 we seeing this, is this one of the reasons

01:32:59.440 why we are just tuning so many things out in

01:33:03.960 Washington?

01:33:04.660 We're tuning principles out.

01:33:05.920 We're tuning all kinds of stuff out because

01:33:07.820 we just can't do anything about it and we keep

01:33:11.260 hearing it, shout it over and over and over

01:33:13.080 and over again, and we have to focus on

01:33:15.960 other things, or am I reading that right?

01:33:18.760 That's exactly right.

01:33:19.780 The human brain is exposed to 400 billion

01:33:23.580 bits of information every second.

01:33:26.100 We make 35,000 conscious decisions per day.

01:33:30.300 We ran an experiment.

01:33:31.540 So wait, wait, that's 35,000 yes or no

01:33:34.140 decisions?

01:33:35.000 Yeah.

01:33:35.520 It could be more complicated than yes or no.

01:33:37.220 These are outright conscious decisions per day.

01:33:39.780 That is crazy.

01:33:40.600 Right?

01:33:41.460 So brands, politicians, we're all trying to

01:33:44.240 enter this stream.

01:33:46.300 We expose people to 5,000 branded messages

01:33:49.360 per day.

01:33:50.960 The previous generation was only 2,000.

01:33:53.100 Already that was too much.

01:33:54.820 So what we have to do is focus less on

01:33:57.620 interruptions and more on empowerment.

01:34:00.680 Or another way of looking at it is magnets

01:34:02.900 over megaphones.

01:34:04.280 We have to create content and experiences

01:34:06.520 that are so powerful, people go out of their way

01:34:09.800 to participate in them, and then share them

01:34:12.960 with others.

01:34:13.840 And that's the secret ingredient to brands like

01:34:16.220 Yeti.

01:34:18.380 Patagonia, you think, is the pinnacle of a

01:34:22.160 passion brand?

01:34:23.540 Patagonia is one of them.

01:34:24.780 Why?

01:34:25.480 Well, I fell in love with those guys because,

01:34:28.020 first of all, they recognize that there's friction

01:34:30.520 in the category.

01:34:31.380 And what they do is they focus all of their efforts

01:34:34.780 on fighting that friction.

01:34:36.260 So the friction is this.

01:34:37.560 If you want to enjoy their outdoor gear and apparel,

01:34:41.160 you need a healthy outdoors.

01:34:43.440 And ironically, when they create their products,

01:34:46.440 it actually damages the outdoors, right?

01:34:48.540 They create manufacturing byproducts.

01:34:50.160 Your old jacket makes garbage, right?

01:34:52.060 So everything that they do, they fight friction

01:34:54.400 by empowering people.

01:34:55.620 Okay, so when we come back, listen to the ad campaign

01:34:59.060 that they came up with.

01:35:01.880 And it's brilliant.

01:35:05.120 Brilliant.

01:35:06.060 Patagonia Friction is the name of the book.

01:35:08.700 Jeff Rosenblum joins us again in just a few minutes.

01:35:11.760 Friction, passion brands in the age of disruption.

01:35:15.160 Back in a minute.

01:35:19.660 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:35:23.260 Mercury.

01:35:25.620 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:35:30.440 I will tell you, if you really want to see the world

01:35:35.120 in a different way, especially if you're an entrepreneur

01:35:39.520 or a leader of any sort, you really want to see the future

01:35:45.460 and whether what you're doing will survive or not,

01:35:49.760 you need to read the book Friction,

01:35:51.660 Passion Brands in the Age of Disruption.

01:35:53.520 Jeff Rosenblum is with us.

01:35:57.480 And you were giving us the example of Patagonia.

01:36:01.800 Patagonia making outdoor clothing,

01:36:05.160 and they really are dedicated to, you know,

01:36:07.660 save the planet and everything else.

01:36:09.720 And so that's where their people are.

01:36:12.420 And the friction that they had internally was, you know,

01:36:17.840 all of the stuff that we make, the chemicals and everything,

01:36:21.700 the garbage, that's actually hurting.

01:36:24.800 So how are we helping exactly?

01:36:27.140 So talk about the campaign that they ran with a coat.

01:36:30.320 So you hit on a really important point.

01:36:33.280 For their target audience, making the environment healthier

01:36:36.660 is absolutely paramount, right?

01:36:39.980 So the campaign that I love, I came across, not when I was doing research,

01:36:44.480 but we actually created this documentary called The Naked Brand.

01:36:47.400 And we looked at one of their campaigns called The Footprint Chronicles,

01:36:50.820 where it was like, you know if you've got those surfer board shorts

01:36:53.640 and you go surfing and you come back on the beach

01:36:55.820 and they dry like 45 seconds later?

01:36:57.920 Well, guess what?

01:36:59.020 Mother Nature didn't make those shorts.

01:37:01.780 We made them.

01:37:02.740 We manufactured them.

01:37:03.760 They're manufacturing byproducts.

01:37:05.100 So you can actually follow the manufacturing of their products

01:37:08.040 around the globe, see the supply chain,

01:37:10.240 and they're not saying, hey, look how great we are.

01:37:12.100 They're literally talking about the damage they do.

01:37:14.100 It's really counterintuitive.

01:37:15.940 I found it fascinating, and I fell in love with the brand.

01:37:18.740 And I wanted to buy this blue Patagonia jacket.

01:37:22.280 I had a perfect vision of it in my mind's eye.

01:37:24.240 And I'm literally shopping on Black Friday.

01:37:28.100 It's the number one shopping day of the year.

01:37:30.180 Brands sell more on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving,

01:37:33.000 than in months combined.

01:37:34.580 And I type in patagonia.com, and on the homepage,

01:37:37.860 like they read my mind, I can't exaggerate this,

01:37:40.240 is the blue jacket that I wanted to buy.

01:37:43.080 And then right next to it, on the homepage,

01:37:45.640 in a giant font, don't buy this jacket.

01:37:51.840 What the heck is going on here?

01:37:53.360 And then there's a button, like direct response principles.

01:37:56.580 Click on it.

01:37:57.080 Learn more.

01:37:57.460 So I click.

01:37:58.380 And their point is this.

01:37:59.480 Reduce, reuse, recycle.

01:38:02.680 Reduce is number one.

01:38:04.660 So if you want to buy that jacket, we're happy to sell it to you.

01:38:07.920 But we're going to damage the environment from the manufacturing,

01:38:11.260 from the garbage roll jacket.

01:38:12.900 Maybe you don't need that jacket.

01:38:14.900 Maybe you should buy less.

01:38:17.180 So I'm Jewish.

01:38:18.600 I'm from New York.

01:38:19.440 I felt guilty.

01:38:20.140 I didn't buy the jacket.

01:38:22.140 They lost the sale.

01:38:24.640 But here's what they gained.

01:38:26.060 They gained my unwavering loyalty.

01:38:30.100 And they gained my evangelism.

01:38:32.100 So here we are on your show talking about Patagonia.

01:38:35.120 But more influential than me are the people who are truly influential,

01:38:38.860 the guides, right?

01:38:40.040 These are the guys who are leading hiking and biking and fly fishing

01:38:44.500 and surfing adventures all around the world.

01:38:46.740 And by definition, guides are influential.

01:38:50.280 And they're covered from head to toe in Patagonia gear.

01:38:53.520 Because Patagonia is empathetic and empowers people about the one thing

01:38:59.100 that is most important to those guides.

01:39:01.940 And when you talk about evangelists, they are 12 times or more trusted

01:39:06.520 than paid advertising ever will be.

01:39:09.640 Wow.

01:39:10.000 And also their competition is similar in that way, right?

01:39:13.880 They try to reduce North Face.

01:39:16.300 They reduce friction for their customers as well.

01:39:19.200 Yeah, it's a great point.

01:39:20.040 Thanks for bringing it up.

01:39:20.820 Because we can't just all jump on the environmental bandwagon.

01:39:23.960 We can't jump on what other brands are already doing.

01:39:27.160 That would look really disingenuous.

01:39:28.860 Totally disingenuous, right?

01:39:30.820 People don't wake up in the morning wanting brands to, like,

01:39:33.820 hug the trees and save the manatees, right?

01:39:35.900 It works for some brands.

01:39:38.160 North Face took a different tact, which is if you want to enjoy outdoor sports

01:39:42.400 and apparel, we're going to help you become a better athlete.

01:39:45.940 So they created what they call the Mountain Series, right?

01:39:49.180 And it's a bunch of instructional videos and information and articles and events

01:39:54.300 that help people become better athletes.

01:39:57.340 So I fell in love with this video series.

01:39:59.960 It was from some of the best rock climbers and the best skiers.

01:40:02.840 And they were showing very specific exercises to help me become a better skier.

01:40:07.760 What's interesting was I don't think it worked all that well for them

01:40:10.760 because they made less of those videos and became less prominent.

01:40:14.100 But they stick to this platform.

01:40:16.020 They're always empowering and they're always educating with different events

01:40:19.040 and different information to help people become better athletes.

01:40:23.200 You don't see the ads or you do see the ads that say,

01:40:25.580 hey, we're North Face, these are great products.

01:40:27.660 But more importantly, they create content and experiences.

01:40:30.640 So the ads are only part of that brand building system.

01:40:34.060 It's not the totality of it.

01:40:36.160 You go through a lot of this stuff, obviously, in the book, Friction.

01:40:38.460 And I have a friend who goes to SoulCycle, which is a cycling, spinning class place.

01:40:46.080 Bordering on a cult.

01:40:46.900 Yes.

01:40:47.600 Literally, the number one thing people say to her is shut up about SoulCycle.

01:40:52.680 It's like the number one thing that happens to her.

01:40:54.480 It's like Orange Theory.

01:40:56.020 Orange Theory is like, okay, stop with the bumper stickers.

01:40:59.260 Because it's a gym, man.

01:41:00.300 Let it go.

01:41:02.540 And so the question I want to ask you is how do I get her to shut up about SoulCycle?

01:41:06.180 But separately, because I look at their business model and I see a huge friction point,

01:41:13.360 which is they're charging people $31 to come in and ride a bike in their establishment for an hour.

01:41:19.900 Yes.

01:41:20.260 And to me, that sounds completely insane.

01:41:22.640 Yet they have more evangelists percentage-wise probably than any company I've ever seen.

01:41:26.400 How do you cross over a huge friction point like that and bring your audience along?

01:41:31.680 Great point.

01:41:32.680 Great brand.

01:41:33.460 I should have included them in the book.

01:41:34.940 I actually thought about those guys a lot.

01:41:36.380 I was scared out of my mind to actually go in there.

01:41:38.300 I don't want to have to sweat that hard.

01:41:39.980 I was like, I'll find another brand.

01:41:41.260 You guys selling salad?

01:41:42.420 We'll do that.

01:41:42.940 There's a bad brand.

01:41:43.880 Salad.

01:41:44.680 I like the part on Cadbury, for the love of God.

01:41:48.740 Salad.

01:41:49.120 The chocolate brand was also a lot easier than SoulCycle.

01:41:51.640 Yeah, that was a good one.

01:41:52.360 Here's the interesting point that you just mentioned, is these passion brands, they don't get there by talking about discounts and promotions.

01:42:01.560 And once brands go there, it becomes really addictive.

01:42:04.520 They actually charge a premium price.

01:42:06.780 Patagonia, Yeti, SoulCycle, Sweetgreen, all of this stuff is quite a bit more expensive than the competition.

01:42:14.240 And it has to be worth it first.

01:42:16.940 It has to be worth, if you're buying a dozen eggs, you better get 14 and great farm fresh eggs if you're charging.

01:42:24.560 Or at least you're better than whatever else you could buy.

01:42:26.740 Yeah, you have to be that first.

01:42:29.540 There's none of this, you know, hey, Fred Flintstone saying that, you know, doctors say smoking is healthy.

01:42:36.100 It's got to actually be accurate, right?

01:42:38.600 Like, there's a great poster I saw, no amount of advertising can get me to buy your crappy pizza, right?

01:42:45.840 And the truth of the matter is, it actually can.

01:42:48.280 It can get you to buy that crappy pizza once.

01:42:50.740 But it's not going to get loyalty, and it's not going to get evangelism.

01:42:54.460 So you're hitting on a key point, which you made with Yeti, which is the product has to be better than the competition.

01:43:00.260 It doesn't have to be two or three times better, but it has to be 10, 20, 30, 40% better, right?

01:43:05.080 But to your point, that relationship that people have with SoulCycle is irrational, right?

01:43:12.780 Yes.

01:43:13.540 Yeah, I can confirm that, yes.

01:43:15.780 The reason that it's irrational is that it's emotional.

01:43:18.780 Most brands have a transactional relationship, right?

01:43:22.100 They make a good product, they charge a fair price, they have some pretty good advertising, people comparison shop, and then they buy.

01:43:29.400 SoulCycle and other brands have an emotional relationship where people pay more for the product.

01:43:36.460 They ignore the competition.

01:43:38.360 They buy all that SoulCycle and other gear, and they turn themselves into walking billboards.

01:43:43.840 And they do that, they create that irrational relationship through irrational behavior.

01:43:50.960 Think about that Patagonia example.

01:43:52.780 Running a campaign that says, don't buy this jacket, that's irrational.

01:43:57.000 So, Starbucks really was kind of a pioneer in this kind of area, weren't they?

01:44:01.980 Where everybody was going to Dunkin' Donuts, you're getting your coffee at a normal price, and then all of a sudden, here comes Starbucks, charging money out the nose.

01:44:09.640 But it became more than a coffee place.

01:44:12.560 Yeah.

01:44:13.000 Well, it went from transactional.

01:44:15.320 I like Dunkin' Donuts, I'm from the Northeast, it's got a great cup of coffee, but it's transactional.

01:44:19.140 You're in, you're out, you move on.

01:44:20.320 Correct.

01:44:20.880 Howard Schultz was like, wait a second, let's make this experiential.

01:44:24.820 Let's look at what's going on in Europe, let's sell them the cup of coffee, and then give them a place to hang out.

01:44:30.620 And then all of a sudden, almost like SoulCycle, it's almost cultish in the language that people are using when they're ordering from SoulCycle, but they're becoming part of a tribe.

01:44:38.960 And tribes are extraordinarily powerful.

01:44:40.720 We don't just want customers.

01:44:42.460 Customers are fine if you want to be a good product.

01:44:45.240 But if you want to be a passion brand, you have to build a tribe.

01:44:48.020 So is that why they use things like Venti?

01:44:51.000 They change the language to make it even more of a badge to be a part of this tribe?

01:44:58.500 Is that what's going on?

01:44:59.880 That's exactly right.

01:45:01.420 Right?

01:45:01.660 And I don't know, like, I'm not that gifted creatively to figure those types of things out.

01:45:07.720 But yeah, Howard or somebody on his team figured out long ago, let's create that badge.

01:45:12.680 Let's create those shortcuts.

01:45:13.980 The name of the book is Friction.

01:45:17.700 I can't recommend it highly enough.

01:45:19.900 I've never done this with any book before.

01:45:22.780 I insisted everybody on the staff read this book.

01:45:26.880 So we're responsible for about 249 copies being sold.

01:45:31.440 Thank you very much.

01:45:32.300 And everybody has read it.

01:45:34.200 I also, for the first time I've ever, I've never done this, we're asking all of our Dallas employees to come down to the studio floor today.

01:45:42.860 There's about 90 here just in this building.

01:45:45.820 They're coming to listen to you at 5 o'clock for the show at 5 today on TheBlaze.com.

01:45:51.500 And I just want you to talk about how to find the customer, how to reduce friction, how to, I mean, I'm convinced everything in your book I've known instinctively.

01:46:06.060 And if I boil it down, I've always thought that capitalism was the greatest charity brand ever, if it's done right.

01:46:17.140 And meaning, if I love a group of people, and I'll say, how can I serve them?

01:46:25.960 How can I make their life better, easier?

01:46:29.100 And by serving them what they need in a really easy way, I could become rich.

01:46:38.900 It is capitalism.

01:46:40.300 It's not charity.

01:46:41.260 It's capitalism.

01:46:41.920 And that's really kind of the thing.

01:46:44.380 If you know who your target is, you know who you're serving, and you actually love them, listen to them, and help make their life easier, that's it, isn't it?

01:46:55.380 Yeah.

01:46:56.100 You know, it's interesting that you bring it up because I'm leaving this very blue region of New York City.

01:47:01.620 And I'm heading to this very red region of Texas, and I'm looking out the window at this wonderful, amazing, beautiful country of ours.

01:47:10.460 And I was thinking about the fact that we just can't seem to agree very much lately.

01:47:16.080 And then I realized, wait a second, there is one thing that we can all agree upon, which is corporations have incredible power.

01:47:24.040 And they should use that power to improve people's lives one small step at a time.

01:47:30.020 And this is not for altruistic reasons.

01:47:32.920 This is not for idealistic reasons because that type of motivation is not sustainable.

01:47:37.480 It's because when brands improve people's lives, they get rewarded, not just by shifting customers or, say, prospects to customers, but by shifting customers into evangelists, where people will pay more and people will evangelize.

01:47:52.300 And that's what fighting friction is all about.

01:47:54.500 Unless you go to the Wharton School of Business or Harvard School of Business and you are assigned both Wealth of Nations and Moral Sentiments, which is imperative that you read both Adam Smith books, you're not going to get this.

01:48:10.340 This is a new, really, kind of Adam Smith look at how capitalism should work.

01:48:17.320 Friction, passion brands in the age of disruption.

01:48:19.800 Jeff Rosenblum, we will see you on The Blaze TV today at 5.

01:48:23.400 Thank you so much.

01:48:24.340 Thank you.

01:48:24.800 I want to talk real quick before you go.

01:48:27.600 The proceeds, as we're telling people to buy your book, the proceeds are not going to you.

01:48:34.260 What are the proceeds going?

01:48:34.760 We're in the middle of it from July 15th to August 15th.

01:48:38.900 All of the proceeds, every penny we make, not Amazon, not the publisher, I can't control those guys, goes to Special Spectators.

01:48:44.400 And which is what?

01:48:45.200 Special Spectators takes kids with life-threatening illnesses and takes them to exclusive college sports experiences.

01:48:53.420 So they'll get on the field at, like, Alabama, and they'll get into the locker room, they'll meet the coaches, and there's all different games going around the country.

01:49:01.320 And what they found with these guys, because I'm on the board of Make-A-Wish, and we saw it there also, is it's not just about giving these guys this sort of moment of happiness, but it's also part of the healing process, right?

01:49:12.380 It literally heals kids when they're fighting these diseases to actually have a moment of happiness in their life.

01:49:18.580 Thank you very much, Jeff.

01:49:19.400 We'll talk to you later this afternoon.

01:49:20.660 Thank you.

01:49:20.980 By the way, if you have any questions, go ahead and tweet them, and I'll have the staff look at them this afternoon before we go on the air.

01:49:31.140 You can just tweet them at Glenn Beck, and we'll try to get your questions in as well.

01:49:36.560 Now this, the Fed says it's ready to start slowly shrinking its holdings of more than $4 trillion in bonds.

01:49:45.000 Hmm.

01:49:46.020 Now what does this mean?

01:49:47.800 The Fed is going to start slowing, shrinking its holdings.

01:49:52.560 So in other words, they're going to get rid of some of the things that they bought up to be able to print money.

01:49:58.840 This could begin as soon as September.

01:50:01.520 These are the bonds the Fed bought in their attempt to stabilize the economy.

01:50:07.400 So if they have good stuff, and they're selling it, and they've got $4 trillion of it,

01:50:14.060 that would mean that the bond prices would go down because somebody is wanting to sell $4 trillion of bond.

01:50:22.940 Unfortunately, what this also means is there's a lot of crap that the Fed bought.

01:50:28.900 They just bundled up all of this crap from the banks that the banks wanted to get rid of.

01:50:36.160 They've got to sell that stuff, too.

01:50:39.160 Who's buying, and what does this do to the asset bubble that is sitting out here?

01:50:44.720 I want you to read an exclusive report from President Reagan's budget director, David Stockman.

01:50:49.960 He's written this report for Goldline, identifying the five threats to the economy.

01:50:54.780 Things, you know, civilization and the economy, both really being pushed every single day.

01:51:04.200 And they're very fragile.

01:51:06.240 Read this report.

01:51:07.280 Get it for free by calling 866-465-3546.

01:51:11.260 866-465-3546.

01:51:14.960 Don't buy anything until you've done all of your own homework.

01:51:18.260 The best thing you can do to be prepared is to actually have knowledge first.

01:51:25.620 Call 866-465-3546.

01:51:29.040 Read their important risk information.

01:51:30.480 Find out if buying gold or silver is right for you.

01:51:32.360 866-goldline or goldline.com.

01:51:36.680 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:51:40.660 Mercury.

01:51:44.700 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:51:46.660 Yeah, he is.

01:51:49.980 Jeff Rosenblum has a lot to teach.

01:51:52.980 I had dinner with him last night and there's a lot of meat on the bone.

01:51:59.360 It's all real common sense.

01:52:01.380 But if you're a manager, a CEO, an entrepreneur, an entrepreneur wannabe, a guy who just wants to make your job better at McDonald's, doesn't matter.

01:52:11.760 The name of the book is Friction, and he will be joining me for another hour tonight on the Blaze TV at 5 p.m. Eastern.

01:52:19.400 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:52:23.020 Mercury.

01:52:23.780 Fury.
