Glenn Beck talks about drone sightings over the White House, the latest in the Trump administration, and much, much more! Glenn Beck is a conservative commentator and host of the Glenn Beck Program on Fox News Radio. He is a frequent contributor to the New York Times, CNN and other media outlets.
00:09:30.580I mean, I can't imagine I could be wrong on this.
00:09:33.080Of course, we've seen some incompetent moments over over the past few years.
00:09:36.900But I can't imagine if you had hours of hovering over a property owned by the incoming president that this wouldn't be noticed and wouldn't be something that they were dealing with if it wasn't the U.S. government.
00:09:53.300Like it just that's what that's why that seems like to me the most likely explanation that it is something that we're doing for whatever reason.
00:09:59.540And you could say nefarious or positive, but they wouldn't just let again, they let a guy just get on the roof in the middle of a rally.
00:10:09.520So, I mean, maybe they would just let.
00:10:11.280But I just it seems like they would stop this if they didn't want those things.
00:10:16.260Have you seen the drone fleets in China?
00:10:28.780I mean, you realize with nefarious ideas, you could do lots of damage with just those.
00:10:35.580The Chinese military drones that I mean, that are in these gigantic fields and thousands of thousands of them are flying in for a formation.
00:10:46.560I'm telling you, you watch the God forbid we get into World War Three.
00:10:51.180Oh, our aircraft carriers are going to be the horses of World War One.
00:10:56.160Yeah, they're just going to be mowed down.
00:21:52.780The rest of them are working from home.
00:21:56.560And the Doge team testified yesterday, we have $2 trillion worth of business, worth of buildings we should sell right now because they're empty.
00:23:08.240This is one of the best times of the year.
00:23:11.140I mean, it can also be a really hard time for your family.
00:23:15.380You know, if you're struggling or you have a family of a service member or first responder who didn't make it home from their duty this year.
00:23:22.700One example is the family of stars, Sergeant Stephen Splane.
00:23:28.520He suffered a heart attack while he was on fire duty.
00:24:02.960This foundation takes care of people that are in shock, and they may not be able to just afford the home for the children and everything else.
00:24:13.360Please donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org.
00:26:16.040Well, I mean, what happened was Dave Phelan finally realized that he was not going to have the votes to maintain his speakership simply because of what you just referenced.
00:26:25.240He ran the whole impeachment sham against Ken Paxton.
00:26:29.140He, you know, a lot of people think that Donald Trump is like the OG of having, you know, this weaponized lawfare against him.
00:26:37.020And Ken Paxton has been dealing with it here in the state of Texas for nearly a decade.
00:28:31.860And so Dave Phelan finally had to decide to step down.
00:28:34.800Now, I will say, Glenn, the fight is not over because we have Dave Jr., Dustin Burroughs, here in the state of Texas, is filing to enter the speakership race.
00:28:52.260He would be the mouthpiece for Dave if he won it.
00:28:54.640You know, my hope is that the grassroots activists will still continue to let their voices be heard, put pressure on their representatives to say, you do not vote for Dustin Burroughs.
00:29:46.560Imagine the people elected, the people decided we want a red legislature, and all you do is you turn over the keys to the car to the Democrats to drive it.
00:29:57.100I mean, you're talking about key committees like the Calendars Committee.
00:30:00.500You know, they decide what comes up on the floor to debate.
00:30:03.980I mean, these are really, really key committees, and he's handing the keys over to the Democrats.
00:30:53.540Texas has been trying to do this for a long time.
00:30:57.260They've been trying to do it, and it is because of this Speaker of the House who is just in the pocket of somebody, probably the teachers' unions, and just will not let it come to a vote and stomps it down every single time.
00:31:13.740Sarah, did you say, I think you say, that we do have the votes, you think, for it now?
00:32:57.820And when it comes to the dollar, I mean, I'll never forget, sitting in Rick Perry's office, probably 2010, and Germany had just asked for their gold from the Federal Reserve.
00:33:14.500And the Federal Reserve was like, well, it might take us five years to get it to you.
00:34:03.280Yeah, she's done so much for – I mean, not just this issue, but so many other issues, you know, particularly the stuff like, you know, the transing issues and such.
00:36:28.480As an adult now, you need to watch these things.
00:36:31.460You don't tell a 10-year-old child you're going to be shot in the street because of who you think you are at 10.
00:36:39.880Yeah, I mean, I think back to March 2020 where all of a sudden, like, NBA games are just – they're just getting canceled with 20,000 people in the stadium.
00:36:53.340You know, Donald Trump is out there talking – and we're in that 15-day, 30-day to slow the spread, all that stuff.
00:36:58.700We still don't know where this is going.
00:37:00.420And there's moments in that where you're like, even if this is wrong and, you know, it's not as serious of a pandemic, like, what's the government going to do?
00:37:15.320Those are real questions that you asked.
00:37:17.220We forget about a lot of them now, but there are moments where you're like, what the hell is going to happen here?
00:37:21.080And I remember thinking to myself, all I can do is try to make my kid's life not feel that way, right?
00:37:28.720All I can do is I hope when they get older, they will look back at this period and remember, hey, remember when we did all that cool stuff with mom and dad when we were home for all that time?
00:37:39.380Like, that's how I want them to remember it.
00:37:41.900That's not how these parents operate at all.
00:37:47.6202016, who was it from ABC or it was Stephanopoulos, I think, who said his children were sleeping in their bed crying themselves to sleep every night
00:43:54.720Uh, there's some just amazing things that have been uttered by people in the last 24 hours.
00:44:02.040And I had a really great conversation with somebody I had never met, did not know that much about other than, uh, I don't think we agree on anything.
00:44:14.080Um, but she came into the studios yesterday and we had a conversation.
00:44:18.700She is, she is somebody who is, um, she still describes herself on the left, but I don't think she defines that differently than you and I define it.
00:44:29.400Um, and I think, uh, and it was a fascinating conversation because we did disagree, but it is exactly the kind of disagreement and conversation that we should be able to have with everybody.
00:44:43.880Uh, it was not a difficult conversation at all.
00:44:48.180And we walked away disagreeing on many things, but it was a great think conversation.
00:44:54.440I'm going to share that with you coming up in just a second.
00:44:56.480First, who you do business with says a lot about you.
00:45:00.020The parallel economy has been building and it is incredibly important.
00:45:04.620When it comes to your mobile carrier, let me ask you, are you with the right company?
00:45:09.560Some of these companies are going to start saying, yeah, woke.
00:45:12.160I don't even know what you're talking about.
00:45:13.480We were broke because they're going broke.
00:45:17.280Don't, you know, who means it and who is meaning it now because times have changed.
00:45:24.040Go with the people that are actually trying to make sure that change happens fully.
00:45:30.360And that's Patriot mobile for your mobile phone service.
00:45:33.020They started because they knew if they could come up with a product that they could make money with and would be a better service and better service for the customer.
00:49:17.580If it is like, if I'm at my house and we're loading up to go on vacation or something, they might take a bag or a suitcase and throw it in the back of the car at my house.
00:49:28.000When they're on duty and we're outside of the fence of my house, they don't put things in their hands.
00:49:54.520That's the case that he was trying to make, and I think he made it poorly because he got upset so quickly, because actually the acting head of Secret Service, I think, was politicizing.
00:50:06.740He was trying to get out of this by saying, I was there to remember.
00:53:18.040I talked to her about, for instance, the border.
00:53:25.960What would you think somebody on Young Turks would say about the border, okay?
00:53:30.920Listen to her and her new understanding of the border.
00:53:35.180I can definitely be honest about my own flaws and my own mistakes because I bought the mainstream media narrative that there wasn't a migrant crisis.
00:53:55.500And when it comes to mainstream media, the fact of the matter is they do play defense more and more for the Democratic Party.
00:54:02.400And that's an issue because there was a time when that didn't happen.
00:54:06.680And so I still believed in their good faith reporting, even though it turns out, you know, a lot of these reports would omit really important details about what's really going on.
00:54:17.960And so it wasn't until Texas Governor Greg Abbott started busing or sending migrants to blue cities where that woke me up.
00:54:27.420That woke a lot of people up and suddenly America realizes, oh, there is a migrant crisis.
00:54:34.980Well, because all of a sudden you're seeing migrants sleeping on the floor in the police department in Chicago because they don't have shelter for these people.
00:54:45.620You're seeing, you know, these I love watching streams of city council meetings because that's how you understand what's really going on in these cities.
00:54:54.880Right. These are real people who live there and they get their opportunity to speak.
00:54:59.480Chicago's been an amazing thing to watch.
00:55:07.340And for me, rather than relying on mainstream media reporting or any anyone's reporting, to be quite honest with you, what I'll do is I'll go out of my way and I'll watch, you know, the entirety of a government function, local government function.
00:55:22.720I talk to real people and I get a sense of where hearts and minds really are.
00:55:29.320And so on election night, I wasn't surprised at all.
00:55:36.300I knew that Cook County was going to swing.
00:55:39.140I think it's about eight percentage points toward Republicans.
00:55:41.460I knew L.A. County and this is what I was surprised about.
00:55:45.660I did not expect Donald Trump to flip 10 counties in California from blue to red.
00:55:53.900But I guess I shouldn't have been surprised about that either, because when you look at the conditions that people are living in, in a Democrat controlled state.
00:56:03.060Well, yeah, you can understand why people are turning their backs on the Democratic Party.
00:56:07.020You can understand why people are frustrated at the corruption, at the loss of twenty four billion dollars that was allocated to help the homeless when homelessness only exploded during that time.
00:56:20.640And that money is now unaccounted for.
00:56:22.420It was funneled to nonprofits whose executives get paid minimum two hundred, two hundred fifty thousand dollars a year.
00:56:30.280And they have multiple executives who are making at least that or more.
00:56:34.760And you just see the waste and you see the real grift.
00:56:38.980And so for people out there who are concerned about the grifters, take a good hard look at the systemic grifting that's happening right now.
00:58:04.200Why Fetterman and others will look at Elon Musk and Ramaswamy and go, this is good, because the ones that actually are not part of the graft,
00:58:16.300the ones who are going in to serve and know that it's wrong to use the insider trading to make yourself a multimillionaire while you're serving the public.
00:58:30.520They're tired of it just as much as we are, because they're closer.
00:58:33.940The ones that we have brought in now are closer to the American people than they are to the machine.
00:59:14.760It's a supplement that you sprinkle on his food with the live vitamins, probiotics, enzymes, the omega oils, and antioxidants.
00:59:24.280Your dog can also try it before you buy it.
00:59:26.540If you go to Rough Greens, R-U-F-F-Greens.com, and use the promo code Glenn to get a free Jump Start trial bag, which is normally $20, but it's free with the promo code.
01:27:46.780So, I listened to the case, and I don't know how your head didn't explode with some of the questions that were coming from some of those on the left, Sotomayor for one.
01:28:00.020But overall, how did you feel it went?
01:28:05.320I think we did a great job of getting our points across.
01:28:10.400I thought the court, I mean, it went on for two and a half hours or so.
01:28:27.820You know, there was a, well, first of all, tell me exactly what the case was.
01:28:33.600What does it actually cover, and what will it do if it's decided in favor of Tennessee?
01:28:42.360So we have a law in Tennessee, our General Assembly, passed a law that prohibits giving juveniles puberty blockers, hormone treatments, or surgery for the purpose of gender transition.
01:28:54.340Surgery was not at issue in this case.
01:28:57.140So this is just about whether the Constitution prevents the state from banning puberty blockers or hormone treatments for the purpose of gender transition.
01:29:06.760So if we win, our law will remain in effect, and kids won't be able to be subject to that in Tennessee.
01:29:13.680Potentially, depending on how we win, it could mean that all laws dealing with gender identity are reviewed under a rational basis standard, which gives the people's elected representatives a lot more latitude as to how they regulate.
01:29:30.280You know, when you were discussing this, and it was Justice Sotomayor said, every medication has, you know, side effects.
01:30:15.660They face losing fertility for the rest of their lives, never being able to have children.
01:30:20.540They risk losing their sexual function for the rest of their lives.
01:30:24.060Kids don't know what they're giving up.
01:30:25.880They risk tumors and blood clots and cognitive disorders and bone density disorders, all sorts of serious lifelong medical complications.
01:30:35.200And meanwhile, the evidence is this doesn't help them.
01:30:38.400You're talking about very severe physical interventions for psychological problems with no evidence that it's helping them with the psychological problems.
01:30:50.140And so we're looking at a situation where kids are really at risk, where there's not a good medical reason for putting them at risk, and where there are these people saying the Constitution prohibits the state from protecting kids, even where the evidence is so powerfully in opposition to allowing this to happen going forward.
01:31:09.940I think it was Justice Souter who asked the opposite side, you know, you said that the science backs this up.
01:31:19.980Well, now we have all this new science that is coming out.
01:31:23.120Do you want to withdraw that statement?
01:31:26.180What has happened since you started this process to the evidence that's coming out from everywhere now?
01:31:35.040So there was a lot of evidence beforehand, but the Cass Review in England is a large-scale, long-term study by an extremely respected pediatrician that looked really hard at these issues.
01:31:55.120They were making these procedures widely available to kids for a while, and they looked at the evidence, and they determined that they should not be doing that.
01:32:03.840But the evidence showed this was hurting kids.
01:32:05.940They should severely restrict access, and they did, and the Cass Report gets into it very thoroughly.
01:32:11.540It was discussed with a lot of specificity by the court.
01:32:15.540You know, it shows there's no reduction in suicide, which is one of the things that we constantly hear.
01:32:20.580You know, if you don't let kids do this, they're going to kill themselves.
01:32:23.360We don't want kids to kill themselves.
01:32:25.160But the evidence is doing these life-altering interventions doesn't make a difference.
01:32:30.260You know, it just looked at a lot of evidence from a lot of kids, and it showed what we already knew, which is that there is no benefit to justify these radical interventions.
01:32:41.960So what does this mean if it comes out the way we hope it does?
01:32:48.940Does this have any effect on bathrooms and sports or anything else?
01:32:58.580It really depends on what the court does.
01:33:01.200I mean, there's a way that we could win that's narrower, that only deals with kids' transitions, or there's a way we could win that's broader.
01:33:09.380If the court says that gender identity issues do not rise to the level of intermediate scrutiny under the Constitution,
01:33:16.700in which case a lot of the litigation we're facing about bathrooms and school sports and all the other things people have sued over would be pretty easy to resolve.
01:33:28.060Did you see any indication that any of the judges were leaning that way?
01:33:32.420Were there any questions that gave you any indication that that was possible or probable?
01:33:41.980There were indications that the justices are thinking about it.
01:33:46.100There were questions about sports that came up.
01:33:48.680But I don't know whether that means they're thinking about issuing a broad opinion or they're just concerned about, you know, the potential effects.
01:33:56.200And, you know, they want to think through exactly how this is going to play out because there's no constitutional law from the Supreme Court on gender identity stuff.
01:34:05.300We have one case about a very narrow, very specifically worded statute.
01:34:09.560And the lower courts have been all over the place.
01:34:28.940There's all these laws because we know you're not mentally prepared to make those kinds of decisions.
01:34:36.120How does that logic not work for this issue?
01:34:42.780You know, there's there's this argument that it's sex discrimination and therefore the Constitution provides a heightened level of scrutiny.
01:34:55.860The law treats people differently based on their age.
01:34:58.080Kids can't consent to things that will have lifelong consequences, whether it's entering a contract or smoking a cigarette.
01:35:05.720The consequences for these procedures are so much more profound.
01:35:09.560And we think we have a strong argument that the state should be able to regulate this, particularly given the evidence that it makes no difference, that it does not help.
01:35:21.380And it increases the risk of all these different horrible outcomes for the kids.
01:35:26.080The other side just seems, quite honestly, and I don't mean to slam people, but they seem unhinged.
01:36:44.020I mean, gender dysphoria is a real thing, and it is really hard for kids to deal with it.
01:36:48.720But we have seen an explosion in these cases that sure looks like something very weird is going on.
01:36:54.260Uh, and we, uh, I don't see how it doesn't come out eventually that there's massive overdiagnosis.
01:37:01.100In England, a doctor saw a 4,000% increase in the number of girls seeking hormone treatments.
01:37:07.600And, you know, the evidence is very, very strong that the large, large majority of kids who have any sort of gender identity confusion grow out of it unless they're put on medications.
01:37:19.760Uh, for most kids, this is a passing thing.
01:37:21.960It doesn't mean it's not hard for them.
01:37:23.980Adolescence is really hard, and I have to think gender confusion makes it that much harder.
01:37:28.500But most of them are going to grow out of it, and for all of them, the evidence of a benefit is minimal at best.
01:37:37.120Well, um, we'll be praying for the Supreme Court, and I thank you so much for, uh, you filing suit and trying to get this, uh, corrected.
01:37:48.560I, I don't, you know, I don't, I don't care what you do as an adult.
01:37:52.880I mean, I actually do, but it's not my business if you're an adult.
01:37:56.100But if you can't decide things like smoking, drinking, you know, uh, be responsible for enough with a gun, you certainly should not be able to do things to your body that are permanent and game-changing.
01:38:23.480Jonathan Scermetti, he is, uh, the Tennessee Attorney General, uh, who argued just, uh, what, day before yesterday at the Supreme Court to protect children from gender procedures.
01:38:33.640And we should, by the way, take what he said seriously.
01:38:37.320If his three-year-old is about to plunder passing ships, we should report that to maritime authorities.
01:38:44.560Uh, don't forget the pillaging and the raping.
01:40:15.080If you have a car that no longer is covered by warranty, you should get some assurance when something goes wrong, you're not going to lose your shirt in the process.
01:40:35.800I just need them to, they're working trucks.
01:40:38.580And I probably would have had to replace my trucks, I don't know how many times, if I didn't have CarShield, because they've just kept them going.
01:41:47.240I know we talk about how insane the world is all the time, but, like, I can't believe this poor guy being murdered in cold blood is something that, I mean, a large portion of the left is cheering on.
01:44:28.600That's the people that will do this to a healthcare worker or cheer it on are the people that would have been at the guillotine of the French Revolution.
01:44:42.720I mean, I guess this is a pretty, at some level, human instinct, a horrible one.
01:44:47.400But one that we've seen over and over again through history, I just, you know, again, I get, you get fooled sometimes maybe by modern life that it's, you know, it feels like it's a lot better and more, you know.
01:44:59.120No, civilization is on the razor's edge always.
01:46:06.440That's why I've said for a long time, hey, you might really want to recognize.
01:46:10.320Recognize what kind of community you live in and move to one that, you know, everybody knows each other and kind of has the same kind of feeling about, hey, I like God.
01:46:26.320It turned days that were overshadowed by constant pain into weeks and months and years that I've actually been able to enjoy myself again and feel good.
01:46:34.740I love talking about relief factor because it broke the back.
01:46:38.400I don't even know how, but it broke the back of pain that nobody could figure out how to stop.
01:46:43.240It's a daily supplement that helps your body fight pain by fighting inflammation, which is the source of most of the pain in our bodies and a lot of our disease.
01:46:52.100It's 100% drug free developed by doctors to help reduce or eliminate pain, whether it's neck, back, joint or muscle pain.
01:46:58.660Relief factor can help you feel better and that can help you start to live better.
01:47:03.120Over a million people have tried relief factors, quick start kit, and yours truly is one of them.
01:47:08.280And 70% of them, including me, has gone on to order it again and again.
01:49:00.560These guys, I just saw them a few months ago in Kansas City.
01:49:06.660And I've been a fan of For King & Country for a while and I like them because they're Christian, but you can listen to them and it doesn't feel like, you know, you're listening to, you're just listening to great music.
01:49:19.240And even if you don't know their songs, it's strangely like you can sing along with all of them.
01:49:47.200From the bowels of an arena in Kansas City a month or so ago to your show today and I don't want to give a spoiler to the listeners, but to the Grand Ole Opry in a couple weeks.
01:50:38.280They've actually sort of become a hallmark of, you know, Luke's and my band for Key & Country.
01:50:44.600And particularly this song, The Little Drummer Boy, we did sort of a very obvious version of it that Bing Crosby or Frank Sinatra never thought of.
01:50:53.260And that is, we put a load of drums on a song about a boy playing a drum.
01:50:59.160And, I mean, I'll have TSA agents come to me and be like, hey, they won't be like, you're part of the King Country.
01:51:05.320They'll be like, hey, you're the drummer boy guy, right?
01:51:07.080So you know you've made it when an American TSA agent calls it.
01:51:11.220But the trouble is, when we do these Christmas tours, you know, the season's so short.
01:51:15.960And so we can only do about 10 or 12 shows every year.
01:51:18.960And so we end up, when we announce it, three quarters of America and the rest of the world are all just really upset at us because we can't get to them.
01:51:25.740And so this was our attempt, you know, in a holiday that we, you know, I feel like we need to be reminded of these great hallmarks of what it means to be human, love and joy and peace and the redemption that comes through God.
01:51:42.260So we took a film crew, we put them in the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas last year and captured a cinematic concert experience for the whole family of our live show.
01:51:52.540And my wife, literally, Glenn, turned to me when she watched the screen and she was like, Joel, I think this is better than your actual live show.
01:52:01.700So I was sort of encouraged and insulted all at the same time.
01:52:04.780I have to tell you, who is the artistic director of the show?
01:52:16.500I mean, look, that's one of the privileges of being able to do work.
01:52:21.200Joel and I are brothers from the same mother, from the same father.
01:52:25.400And one of the privileges of working together is actually being able to, you know, create these things together.
01:52:31.920Our brother Daniel is actually the show designer, but we obviously, we work on this all together.
01:52:38.040And so, you know, when it comes down to the set lists, the visuals, the technology, yeah, we're involved with all of it because we've actually done this since we were very young boys.
01:52:49.680Our older sister was an artist by the name of Rebecca St. James, and we went out the road with her.
01:52:53.740And so I think I was like a lighting director at 14 or 15.
01:52:57.320Yeah, we broke a bunch of child labor laws somewhere in there.
01:53:00.640So, you know, you throw this all together and you create these shows.
01:53:05.680And, you know, that's one of the things that I love about what we get to do is we get to do it together.
01:53:13.820You know, I haven't seen the Christmas one yet.
01:53:16.940I've heard, you know, the music, but I haven't seen the actual show.
01:53:19.880But your music and the staging was, I mean, I sat there with my wife and we were with a bunch of friends and I said, this is incredible.
01:53:32.140And if you aren't a Christian, you'd walk in here and you'd have really not necessarily any idea if you hadn't really listened to the lyrics, but you would feel what you're feeling.
01:53:45.180And it just is such a great experience.
01:53:52.360Look, in our interpretation, at least, the idea of being a Christian or being a Jesus follower, it's an invitation, right?
01:54:02.260And also, it's a pretty enormous claim that we are in touch with the creator of the universe, that we're in touch with the creator of creativity, the creator of art, the creator of the Sistine chapels.
01:54:14.860And yet, so often in the modern context, our art feels like second fiddle to pop culture.
01:54:21.980And yet, and you know this as a bit of a historian yourself, throughout history, the religious arts have led the way.
01:54:29.560And so, man, we take it so seriously, not for the sake of ego, you know, at least on our better days.
01:54:35.160Not for the sake of, you know, self-aggrandizing, but for the sake of people looking at this and going, my goodness, what a great God that they must be in touch with to put on and to be inspired to do these types of things.
01:54:53.020So have you guys been tempted at all to, you know, in the old days, when you'd go to a Christian concert, they would kind of preach at you and, you know, try to convert.
01:55:05.500And what I loved about it was, it was all there, but it was not in your face.
01:55:12.960It wasn't, you weren't, you weren't overtly saying, hey, come to Christ.
01:55:18.900And so you, you, nobody was, nobody could possibly be offended.
01:55:25.660It was just such a great way to present the message and have people go, what makes them different?
01:55:34.720Have you been tempted to do, be more obvious?
01:55:41.420That's an interesting way of putting it.
01:55:42.820Look, I, you know, I, I'm a big, well, I try to be a big historian.
01:55:46.700And St. Francis of Assisi was a guy, was a saint many, many years ago.
01:55:51.500And he had a quote that the young boy really affected me.
01:55:55.240And he says, preach the gospel and if necessary, use words.
01:56:01.780And look, I think that that statement should poke at a lot of us as Christians, because our lives should be so unbelievably joyful.
01:56:12.220A lot, our work should be so unbelievably good that sometimes, yes, sometimes words are required, but I think that most of the time they're not.
01:56:22.700It's the, it's the presence that you bring that oftentimes people are left talking about.
01:56:28.080And so I think that for us, man, uh, we, uh, we try to take that, uh, take that statement, uh, we, we, literally, you know, you come into that room, hopefully you feel it and, uh, and you kind of know what's going on.
01:56:41.440And, uh, you know, that's, that's our hope.
01:56:43.420So when I saw you, uh, in Kansas city, uh, I had forgotten that we, I mean, I, I know the name small bone, obviously I know your brother, uh, he worked, uh, on one of my early book tours.
01:56:58.360I, I've seen your movie of your family and everything else, but I had forgotten that at one point you two worked for me for, you did a, I, I, and you reminded me of that.
01:57:12.900Luke, you were, you were, you were, you were a lighting tech or something.
01:57:15.940No, so my brother Ben is a film director as well.
01:57:18.500And I guess somehow we were working together, Glenn, because, uh, your team or somebody had said, Hey, what if we do it like a day in the life of Glenn Beck?
01:57:27.160And so we started at your house and we like filmed you walking out and then we, we filmed you as you went to work that day.
01:57:34.120But the funny part was I was there to be like the, the, the sound and the audio guy.
01:57:39.260And before you came out of the door, the love mic that was meant to go on to, onto you, uh, I dropped and literally broke it.
01:57:48.000And so the rest of the day, I mean, for those of you who are listening, if you see those guys are holding that massive mic above people's heads, you know, to kind of get good audio.
