00:00:11.340 part of donald trump's legacy as president six three decisions that go the right way for once

00:00:16.500 we go through uh some of the songs you might remember that viewed with today's eyes do not

00:00:25.200 look so good uh there's a lot apparently a lot of rock stars used to sing about hooking up with

00:00:31.320 16 year olds and it was not something that they should have been doing we kind of revisit some of

00:00:37.560 those songs that you're not going to want to miss that was uh it was a fun disturbing look back into

00:01:31.080 back program

00:01:31.820 happy independence day weekend uh pat and stew for glenn today uh sad news though as we start the

00:01:43.260 weekend um we didn't hit the numbers that our president required of us to go ahead and have

00:01:50.260 barbecues in our backyards with uh a couple of people that we that we care about or at least like

00:01:57.860 and wanted to have over for a burger we didn't hit those numbers so you can't do it pat i happen to be

00:02:03.480 of the uh of the of the idea that you it's way too many way too many people in a backyard if you have

00:02:10.500 multiple people well he said up to six if we would have hit our numbers but that's that was too many

00:02:15.300 too many pat okay too too many people yeah you're talking about six people in one backyard i mean

00:02:23.120 maybe if you had 10 acres you know something like that situation if you had 10 acres i personally don't

00:02:29.560 you don't i don't i do not have 10 acres do you have a mountain range that cuts through and gives

00:02:34.360 multiple sections of backyard do you think my name is glenn beck no no idea oh this is a program

00:02:41.160 i thought glenn does have a mountain range that cuts through his backyard but it's not it's not

00:02:46.580 that's not appropriate what i would say is if you have a mountain range that cuts it like a pizza

00:02:51.240 into six different slots oh like so you'd need a mountain range that kind of or like maybe even a

00:02:56.980 forest would work but it has to cut into multiple different regions of the backyard i don't have that

00:03:02.920 and then one person in each region if you picture like a small pizza cut into six slices one person

00:03:08.420 in each area of that backyard uh-huh if it's divided by some natural barrier for instance if

00:03:15.440 your backyard includes colorado utah yeah right like if you're the federal government yeah if you're

00:03:24.340 federal government and you own let's say 60 percent of the western half of the country then you could

00:03:28.520 have a barbecue yeah yeah and that's that's because we're all coming together this is our

00:03:33.880 independence day pat otherwise like how many do you think are too appropriate can two people who

00:03:39.720 live in the same household go into the backyard and have a barbecue or is that too many is that too much

00:03:45.100 to ask let me just be because you know we're we're conservatives um we we maybe are a little too

00:03:52.840 lackadaisical with our covid restrictions what i would say is let's say you live on a street

00:03:58.520 and everyone's got a decent sized backyard if you were to have a backyard barbecue with one person

00:04:06.100 per backyard i think that would be okay but separated by a fence first of all yes definitely

00:04:11.800 separated by fence but it'd be better if maybe add some plexiglass to the top of that fence as well

00:04:15.880 okay um and then in addition to that you need to stand in the middle of the yard either today or

00:04:20.180 tomorrow you need to install plexiglass at the top of your fence yeah i mean it should be there

00:04:24.700 already the fact that it's not already shows that you don't care and you want to kill grandmothers but

00:04:28.240 i'm saying yeah you stand in the middle of the yard though not like the tim the tool man taylor

00:04:34.880 thing we're not where the neighbor came up and he poked his nose over the fence yeah you only saw his

00:04:39.840 eyes for the entire series kind of peeking over the fence way too close way way too close now sure

00:04:46.500 if you want to look back and and look at some of the scientific data you might note that there has

00:04:51.760 not been a single case of covid spread outdoors other than very close conversation in the entire

00:04:59.940 history of the pandemic but i think six people outside is radical and we didn't hit the number pat

00:05:07.840 we didn't hit the number we didn't hit the number we don't deserve it we don't deserve to have a

00:05:12.120 barbecue in the backyard with friends thank you i don't deserve it i'm glad you finally said that

00:05:16.880 pat because it had to be said it really i feel better now having gotten it off my chest and here's

00:05:21.700 the thing um the fact that we missed this completely arbitrary number uh by what three percent so instead

00:05:31.180 of six instead of 70 percent of people uh adults over 18 vaccinated it's 67 percent this is a massive

00:05:40.500 difference and it really going to make the difference between a pandemic a raging pandemic

00:05:44.660 and herd immunity pat that's that's a dang good number in the united states of america that's an

00:05:50.540 incredible number 67 percent of adults have gotten a vaccine you know it's i'm glad you said that i

00:05:56.360 totally agree with this i i do at times hesitate because you think like well you know like herd immunity is

00:06:03.020 factors in an entire population we're not gonna get to herd immunity anytime soon probably never

00:06:09.520 but you know although the point is i will say what's his face fauci said 70 percent at the

00:06:15.800 beginning if you get to 70 percent of adults that's pretty dang good i i think it's i think it is pretty

00:06:21.940 dang good especially when you consider that you know for most of this time no one under 17 years old

00:06:27.440 was eligible to even take the vaccine yeah so you can't even look at anyone there uh and you're at

00:06:34.060 seven 67 percent of adults but more importantly pat and and we this is something in conservatives

00:06:39.640 argued from the very beginning look we have a country here we have people who are going to be

00:06:44.120 able to make their own risks right they're going to be able to assess their own risks you know what we

00:06:50.540 really need to do to get this country going again is look at the people who are really vulnerable here

00:06:55.280 and the people who are really vulnerable are largely people over 65 years old right now currently at this

00:07:01.740 moment we have vaccinated 88.2 of people over 65 that is an insanely good performance i mean i what

00:07:11.120 what did you expect in a country where people are allowed to make their own decisions you expect it to

00:07:16.040 be a hundred i mean there are going to be some people who don't agree with you 88.2 of the most

00:07:21.580 vulnerable people it's incredible that's that that's incredible that's amazing and of course we've seen

00:07:26.340 the results i mean we're we're down 90 percent in cases and deaths some of them over 90 some of these

00:07:34.120 margins uh hospitalizations as well so i'm trying to scare us though in back into submission because

00:07:40.400 people are getting too free again and we're not completely under their thumb right now so they're

00:07:45.460 doing the whole delta variant scare the fear-mongering on the delta variant you hear it every stinking day

00:07:51.720 the delta variant the delta it's coming the delta variant just stop with the delta variant but uh

00:08:01.060 they're not going to stop because they they want control in los angeles they've already re-mandated

00:08:07.060 masks uh if you're if you're going indoors anywhere i just don't think this any of this stuff is going

00:08:13.080 to work i i i don't feel like they're going to be able to reinstitute these i think i mean the delta

00:08:19.320 people are done i think delta variants up to what 25 now of cases it's going to rise it's happening

00:08:24.500 it's happening in great britain right now and now they have a what i would consider a a worse vaccine

00:08:31.340 than the ones that we have yeah yeah i mean it's had its problems i don't think it's terrible but

00:08:37.000 their situation right now they are having an influx of cases due to the delta variant and what hasn't

00:08:42.880 moved at all and we are now a couple weeks past where it should have moved our deaths and

00:08:49.120 hospitalizations i mean it's ticked up a little bit but really it hasn't nudged up at all so we've

00:08:54.920 seen cases go up but this is really like the old you know when when some of these outbreaks would

00:09:00.160 happen last year people would say like ah is this gonna is this just cases you know it's younger

00:09:05.020 people is it just cases and then the deaths eventually would rise every single time this time

00:09:08.660 they're not in in in in great britain now who knows will it hold i don't know uh here we seem

00:09:14.080 to be performing even better because our i think our vaccines are better performing vaccines uh through

00:09:19.640 operation warp speed and and all the work that the president did he went i heard him on uh clay and buck

00:09:24.520 the new show and rush limbaugh's time slot talking earlier this week and he was talking about how

00:09:30.000 the media all said this was not possible they all said a vaccine in that timeline could not be done

00:09:38.560 under any circumstances they laughed at him they laughed at him they went to they said donald trump was

00:09:44.160 trying to manipulate the science to win an election they accused him of all sorts of things yet here we

00:09:53.640 are uh disappointed that only 67 percent of adults are vaccinated by july yeah they i mean they had no

00:10:02.200 timeline their initial timelines for all of this was supposed to be a release maybe by the end of 2021

00:10:11.320 maybe if we're really lucky by they'll release all of this uh for people yeah they kept telling us

00:10:17.800 oh please the the fastest ever vaccine was developed in four years you can't get it done by

00:10:26.680 the end of the year uh and he did think about this pat i found this to be fascinating the early 80s

00:10:34.100 went on and and we just exited pride month and if you know anything about this it already i do too i

00:10:40.700 mean we're 363 days away from my heart all the year though you will i am okay good yeah

00:10:46.280 one of the things that always comes up in pride month is the evils of ronald reagan you know

00:10:52.180 ronald reagan didn't even say mention the word age until until 1998 after he died after he died after

00:10:59.140 he died he finally mentioned it once and that was only one time and there's all these things that go

00:11:04.700 around the maybe we should get into this later but there's all these uh things that go around the

00:11:08.120 internet that ronald reagan didn't care about aids and he didn't mention it for all this time it's not

00:11:11.780 true he like doubled the investment in in fighting aids more than double every every year year yeah

00:11:18.680 i mean every single year he doubled it again yep and the first year it was called a pandemic uh

00:11:26.520 and an epidemic excuse me um he was already investing in it i mean he didn't wait he didn't

00:11:31.900 wait until it was too late he you know he was not asked interesting by any journey journalist

00:11:37.420 throughout the entire 1984 re-election campaign one question about it in any of the debates

00:11:42.740 uh so like it was not a focus of the country in large part um but it barely heard about it yeah

00:11:49.940 we didn't know we didn't know anything about it we didn't know what it was at the time i think the

00:11:53.880 first time we ever heard of it of it was 1982 yeah maybe and it wasn't you know they didn't know that

00:12:00.120 much about it didn't know much about it they didn't really know how it spread and here's the thing

00:12:03.500 that i thought i thought was fascinating thinking about how far we've come in the early 80s

00:12:08.600 aids was they realized aids was a thing and they started trying to figure out what caused it took

00:12:15.400 them four years to identify the virus i mean in four years fauci was saying things like uh we

00:12:24.280 we think it might have come from a toilet seat i mean it wasn't exactly that but it was stuff like

00:12:30.680 that yeah and we didn't know i mean think about we have in this situation operation warp speed

00:12:36.880 produces uh multiple effective vaccines in less than a year and back then it took four years to

00:12:46.160 even figure out what the virus was let alone come up with a vaccine for it which they still don't have

00:12:50.480 yeah uh you know they still have pretty they do have pretty effective treatments uh now that have

00:12:54.820 been developed over time uh but i you know we are people live a long time yeah very very long time

00:13:00.420 it's no longer the death sentence i remember watching magic johnson and thinking oh my god oh my

00:13:04.960 god he's gonna be dead in six months now you can't even detect the disease in him yeah and we've

00:13:09.460 come a long long long way by the way i think it's moderna that is uh about to enter trials on an

00:13:14.640 mrna aids vaccine uh hiv vaccine a flu vaccine and there's one other one oh wow um melanoma is another

00:13:22.820 one they're in the middle of really yeah i i really again i understand that there's a cancer vaccine

00:13:29.120 that's amazing there's a lot of disagreement i understand in at times in the audience with

00:13:34.340 with vaccinations and again i maintain i'd take a cancer vaccine yeah i'd take it and i maintain

00:13:41.700 it's a hundred percent your choice to do all of these things or not and i think that's really

00:13:46.460 really important in a country like the united states with foundational liberties like we have

00:13:50.740 on the other hand like i also am really excited about this technology because if it works there's hope

00:13:56.500 to wipe out all sorts of diseases that have been around for a really long time and of course we

00:14:02.200 should you know make sure that all of it's uh safe and and everything else i mean i think that's very

00:14:06.960 important i'm very encouraged by you know what the trump administration was able to do in what i one of the

00:14:12.560 things i love about all this whole story is that it's the most hated people in the world coming

00:14:17.520 together to do it i mean people hate pharmaceutical companies they hate capitalism they hate the trump

00:14:23.200 administration and it's impossible to tell the story without them but that being said you know

00:14:30.300 it's up to you especially now when these things are available if you don't want to take them you

00:14:36.940 shouldn't have to take them and then you assume the risk associated with that if you want to take

00:14:41.300 them you should have the ability to take them and you assume the risks associated with that that is a

00:14:47.300 that seems like a country that's free it kind of does doesn't it yeah it kind of does

00:14:53.040 the best of the glenn beck program

00:14:57.440 all right so there have been 45 we got the 45th president in office right now so the top 44

00:15:07.960 presidents listed by presidential historians this is a survey i usually see around

00:15:14.280 president's day yeah but i don't remember seeing it this year maybe maybe they just waited until

00:15:20.600 now to come out here and then yeah covid right right all about 19 yeah uh so the let's start

00:15:28.660 with the worst president of all time this is perennially the worst president of all time you

00:15:33.880 know who they usually pick as the worst number 44 then after her nope but they don't like

00:15:41.940 hoover they don't like towards the bottom hoover is uh 36 so he is near the bottom james buchanan

00:15:48.000 yeah our first gay president they've i don't know i don't know if they're homophobic or what but they

00:15:53.780 always list james buchanan dead last among american presidents yes they do uh sad sad

00:16:01.080 uh we also have uh let's see just start at the uh at number 10 so the top 10 oh wait wait you're

00:16:10.820 not gonna do more of the crappy ones well yeah i want to know more of the crappy ones okay give

00:16:14.320 me some crappy presidents according to historians now number 43 so 44 is james buchanan number 43

00:16:22.480 andrew johnson at uh number 42 franklin pierce president's people don't know much about no yeah

00:16:32.340 franklin pierce name three things franklin pierce accomplished in office i can actually remember the

00:16:39.700 day that i realized john tyler was president of the united states i had i went through my entire life

00:16:47.680 not knowing about john tyler john tyler and i remember john tyler who the hell is john tyler

00:16:53.100 well he's the 39th best president in the history of the country these guys at the end yeah you really

00:16:58.640 realize are not there uh are not they're just not a lot of them are just not known no they're not this

00:17:03.860 this next one at number 41 is definitely known donald j trump they list at 41 i will say i am

00:17:11.940 stunned he is not 44 i am according to presidential historians yeah that's a good point again like

00:17:20.180 these guys always put progressive presidents up at the top and conservative presidents at near the

00:17:25.980 bottom the fact that they didn't put trump at 44 out of 44 is stunning to me they must hate gay

00:17:32.320 people like president president buchanan yes yes uh william harry william henry harrison uh 40th

00:17:39.320 how was he president for like nine days how long was harrison president yeah is he the one that died

00:17:45.640 really quickly wasn't he the one i can't get these guys confused now me too um man might have been

00:17:53.340 mckinley mckinley wasn't president very long either maybe that's the one a month um okay so then then

00:18:00.980 john tyler as we mentioned at 39 millard fillmore 38 harding 37 herbert hoover at uh

00:18:09.300 36 as we mentioned zachary taylor 35th martin van buren rutherford rutherford b hayes 33 benjamin

00:18:17.620 harrison richard nixon okay so hold on so william henry harrison yeah uh his presidency lasted from

00:18:24.880 march 4th 1841 to april 4th 1841 wow that's not a march to april yeah like a month not a good run

00:18:34.200 i mean i don't i kid you that's unfair why he should be like number one he couldn't have screwed

00:18:38.720 up that bad is he the one that caught pneumonia yeah he was out doing the yeah the speech um

00:18:44.760 chester a arthur too is very uh obscure president he at number 30 george bush at 29 george w bush

00:18:54.920 yeah yeah now it's interesting george w bush is now moving up on these lists you're noticing he was

00:18:59.640 doing from 33 to 29 this time and this is why you can't look at these recent presidents with any

00:19:05.000 level of uh honesty these guys cannot do it because bush was the worst guy in the world in 2009 and 10

00:19:13.420 and now that trump has come in and now he's the worst guy in the world you can move bush up and say

00:19:18.840 bush was good look at look at the comparison and by the way the same i know it seems impossible

00:19:24.780 but the same thing will happen with whoever runs next if ron de santis is the candidate they will

00:19:30.780 say jeez we thought trump was bad but ron de santis is worse they did they did it with mit romney

00:19:37.740 remember that they're like look we gosh we thought uh george bush was bad but mit romney he's worse

00:19:45.180 they do it every single time right and bush is gone in the surveys they do this uh 2009 survey

00:19:51.960 2017 2021 uh so bush in that time has gone 36 to 33 to 29 see yeah he's moving up he's moving up

00:20:00.700 moving up the chart another four places george w bush like has he accomplished something new

00:20:06.580 what has happened to make him go from 36 to 29 it's the perception yeah you know you're right history

00:20:14.020 tells the story i guess gerald ford who was not a great president was number 28 uh garfield and carter

00:20:21.120 next carter should be way lower than 26 that's for sure he's one of the worst of all time he should

00:20:26.440 probably be in the 40s late 30s to the early 40s grover cleveland they list at 25 one of our greatest

00:20:33.040 this is one of our greatest presidents of all time this guy to me is top three yep he's definitely top

00:20:38.980 three calvin coolidge and they have him 24 that is a disgrace it really is 24 really is i mean i i agree

00:20:49.280 with you i think he's probably my favorite president uh maybe my second or third favorite but he's right

00:20:55.660 up there he should be up there at the top that's a that's a that's a that's terrible miscarriage of

00:21:00.420 justice for me he's up there with george washington thomas jefferson and abraham lincoln he's he's right

00:21:06.360 up there with those guys uh he was a great president uh let's see clinton is down at number 19 now

00:21:14.180 clinton has kind of gone the other way he's gone 14 15 19 so same with george hw bush 18 20 then 21

00:21:23.560 yeah it's interesting that those guys are going backwards for some reason james k polk is a guy

00:21:28.440 you don't hear about much since we dropped james k polk tuesdays uh doing pat and stew years ago

00:21:33.800 uh we finally got tired of doing it but he's listed at number 18 that's not bad that's not bad

00:21:41.320 all right the top 10 barack obama at number 10 uh just above him at number nine this is way too low

00:21:50.500 i think uh ronald reagan ninth why would you put reagan i'm surprised he's ninth actually on a list

00:21:56.660 like this if i was going to put him i'd have him higher um but ninth isn't bad for presidential

00:22:03.300 historians i'm shocked that they put him ninth that's that's stunning for historians jfk who always

00:22:09.960 is overrated uh number eight uh that's ridiculous yeah it is he didn't even complete a term again not

00:22:17.440 his fault right but still you have to take that into account did some good things though he stared

00:22:21.860 down the soviets he uh had the vision of the moonshot uh and he lowered taxes yep in a big way

00:22:31.180 i mean he was not he's not i would not put him at the bottom but he's not a top 10 president he

00:22:35.560 didn't even serve he didn't serve enough time i think to be a top 10 president right

00:22:39.960 um let's see thomas jefferson number seven way too low for thomas jefferson uh harry truman is

00:22:46.060 above thomas jefferson at number six no no dwight d eisenhower the fifth best president of all time

00:22:53.000 kind of ambivalent on that one uh then you get to theodore roosevelt i'm not ambivalent on that

00:22:59.860 that's terrible that's a terrible ranking and even worse is number three fdr yeah those are terrible

00:23:05.440 three no uh fdr is definitely near the bottom of this list definitely one of the worst presidents

00:23:12.540 of all time in fact we skipped over lyndon lyndon baines johnson yes listed at number 11 he might be

00:23:19.840 the all-time worst president seriously i i think he is underrated in that discussion as one of the

00:23:26.880 worst presidents of all time he he is almost single-handedly responsible for all of our

00:23:34.160 problems with debt trillions and trillions of dollars could be attributed to him and the war

00:23:39.880 on poverty and he was a an out of control racist yeah the fact that they again not racist i mean look

00:23:48.700 woodrow wilson who we didn't mention somehow on this program which is a is terrible he's at number 13

00:23:53.980 which actually is probably why he should be obviously in the 40s but like wilson was a racist

00:24:00.200 in a lot earlier than johnson johnson was still doing the racist thing you know a half century later

00:24:08.680 and here's the thing the weird thing about lyndon b johnson he's credited for the civil rights bill

00:24:15.220 for signing it incredible well yeah after he was forced into it essentially he fought it his entire

00:24:21.780 life fought it right up till the time he signed it really he signed it out of political necessity

00:24:28.000 he had to sign it and he finally did but he fought it the rest of his career uh that's it's despicable

00:24:35.320 that he's listed at number 11 okay going back to the uh uh number two george washington and which i

00:24:43.580 don't have a problem with since you've got abraham lincoln at number one i mean that's hard to argue

00:24:48.860 with um although southerners would always argue with abraham lincoln being number one the best

00:24:54.580 president of all time yeah i might put i look lincoln is a top the top five president in my view

00:25:00.120 um but i probably put washington ahead of him i definitely would it's hard to put washington

00:25:04.540 behind anyone it is and i'll list like this i'd have coolidge in the top five i think i'd have

00:25:09.480 reagan in the top five jefferson i could put in the top five as well for sure you know one row

00:25:14.560 james unnero not a top five guy no for me madison madison i i would consider definitely top 10 i

00:25:22.400 don't know why he's so i mean like his he's never listed high though yeah you know i think there's a

00:25:27.160 separation it's hard it's hard for i think most people to separate his presidency versus his legacy

00:25:33.480 writing the constitution yeah like you know he's one of the most important people in our country's

00:25:38.460 history yeah some people rate his presidency a little bit lower yeah but his his contribution

00:25:44.320 to this country you'd put him in the top five for sure yeah uh but yeah i put reagan up there

00:25:48.820 i would put um coolidge up there for sure and i would my my bottom five it's got woodrow wilson in

00:25:55.160 it it's probably got jimmy carter in it it definitely has lbj in it yes those names you can't yes you

00:26:03.060 can't can't look past them and i think maybe the best president of all time was william henry harrison

00:26:08.880 because he was only in there for a month and he couldn't screw things up

00:26:11.440 he's the only one right right if i had monthly presidents i mean maybe we should think about

00:26:19.480 this as a real long term best month as a president yeah i think though that's the term limit we go with

00:26:26.000 four weeks you could run for you could be president for four weeks and then you get a second four week

00:26:32.780 term and then your term limited out i like it we'd have a lot of elections though i don't think i could

00:26:37.120 take the election ads in this format this is like what they do in israel right now they just hey wait

00:26:43.820 what if we just throw another election next week let's just plan having a weekly election for the

00:26:50.000 president you know let's see if that guy can put together a government and then the next guy uh in

00:26:56.000 another month we'll we'll elect him see if he can put one together maybe we shouldn't this is a

00:27:01.080 crazy idea for a lot of these parliamentary democracies but maybe you don't have the

00:27:06.200 president putting together a government maybe that's not the way the system should work i don't

00:27:10.900 know yeah yeah maybe let the people elect elect representatives into a government and then uh you go

00:27:18.840 with what the people elect huh this is one of the most fascinating things about how the world is

00:27:23.200 developed i think which is the united states comes out of nowhere this is july 4th right we we come out of

00:27:30.580 nowhere we're the upstart kids in town we take over the league right mvp every single year and so few

00:27:38.440 countries have decided to just emulate what we've done plan like they all try these little mixes on it

00:27:45.700 they all have a little different way of going about i mean they've all moved from monarchies to

00:27:51.260 toward democracy i mean the world as a whole has gotten a lot better since the u.s came through and

00:27:56.140 we've had a lot of that influence but they all a lot of them just stick around with this like

00:27:59.400 parliamentary democracy system all these things like look you know what you should do look at our

00:28:03.920 constitution put it when it says united states change it to your your name of your country that's

00:28:09.680 what you should do go in there take the document control it's not that hard i think it is which is

00:28:15.900 uh find and replace okay find united states replace with uganda or whatever country you are

00:28:21.740 and then go with it yeah that's easy now you want to tweak a thing here or there i can understand it

00:28:27.900 maybe your culture's a little bit different but we've set this up pretty well you've seen this works

00:28:32.620 right we've basically been it's hard to argue with that superpower forever forever and people are just

00:28:40.480 like what if we try something totally different what if we put how about if we do a constitution on

00:28:46.200 twitter what if we did that let's have a panel of kings we'll have nine kings and they could all

00:28:52.080 it's like why just do what we've done we've told you how to do it it works right you all it's like

00:28:59.200 well we're gonna have totally different laws but at the same time i want to i want to mention

00:29:03.000 all of our people should be able to illegally cross the border to go into that place all the time

00:29:07.740 and it's hateful if you don't allow them to do it wait you could just have this where you are

00:29:13.380 we it's not it's not the land that has made this place great it's not the location it's not the

00:29:18.900 climate it's uh it's the constitution and the founding documents that have made this place great

00:29:25.220 among other things just try to emulate that as close as you can it's not rocket science it's not

00:29:32.680 we've already shown you how to do it or we could go to twitter hey can send us some amendments

00:29:37.400 a tweet at iceland's got a new constitution on twitter and we'll put them in there

00:29:44.980 no more than 244 characters though 888-727-BECK

00:29:51.400 this is the best of the glenbeck program

00:29:57.320 background stubergear uh for glen on the glenbeck program today uh you know you might think

00:30:07.180 the lyrics today are a little bit iffy and uh some maybe aren't appropriate uh to be hearing

00:30:15.140 on the radio you had a list of some songs that um spin diddy went through that uh when you when

00:30:25.500 you look at the lyrics and these are all songs that you probably knew as a kid or growing up and uh

00:30:31.820 they you know it probably didn't hit you that they were anything special or anything outrageous

00:30:36.920 outrageous but when you look at them today with today's eyes they're pretty outrageous yeah this

00:30:41.680 all started from a thing that happened in the news recently about indiana jones they're doing a new

00:30:49.440 indiana jones movie right now which thankfully because the crystal skull was one of the worst

00:30:53.820 movies ever made uh so i kind of want them to at least attempt to try to salvage the series after

00:30:58.760 what they just did to it um but they're going through this and they talked to marion from raiders

00:31:05.580 the lost ark you know she was obviously the the his love interest in this movie and listen to this

00:31:12.640 scene and see just listen do some math in your brain as you listen to this scene hello marion

00:31:19.220 indiana jones

00:31:26.040 indiana jones

00:31:27.720 indiana jones

00:31:30.780 always knew someday you'd come walking back through my door

00:31:34.120 i never doubted that something made it inevitable

00:31:38.120 so what are you doing here in nepal

00:31:41.040 i need one of the pieces your father collected

00:31:43.560 i learned to hate you in the last 10 years 10 years

00:31:47.060 i never meant to hurt you

00:31:49.900 i was a child i was in love

00:31:51.740 wait

00:31:51.960 it was wrong and you knew it

00:31:53.780 you knew what you were doing

00:31:55.280 now i do this is my place

00:31:56.980 get out

00:31:58.000 mohan

00:31:58.640 temigru

00:31:59.320 bolian

00:32:00.000 i did what i did you don't have to be happy about it but maybe we can help each other out now

00:32:05.280 so

00:32:06.440 oh hey

00:32:07.780 oh okay all right

00:32:09.460 i did what i did you know you know what you were doing

00:32:12.420 she just said she was a child

00:32:14.460 a child

00:32:14.900 wait a minute

00:32:16.700 now she what she's maybe 28 now 30

00:32:20.920 she is saying

00:32:22.200 oh they're doing interviews but so

00:32:24.060 what prompted this is like

00:32:25.800 this is like the of course dumb ending to the me too saga

00:32:29.920 where now they're criticizing indiana jones

00:32:32.940 who was a fictional character

00:32:35.040 right

00:32:35.660 for his apparent uh sexual assault

00:32:39.320 of of marion when she was too young

00:32:43.440 so they've now asked marion

00:32:44.960 uh the actor who portrayed her

00:32:46.460 uh wait

00:32:47.820 were you like

00:32:49.180 was there statutory rape going on

00:32:51.120 what happened

00:32:51.800 and she says she was 16

00:32:54.340 so they were she was 26

00:32:57.240 in the actual movie

00:32:59.260 10 years ago was 16

00:33:00.960 wow

00:33:01.500 now glenn

00:33:02.980 somehow dug out

00:33:04.560 some of the conversations

00:33:06.600 about this scene

00:33:08.160 from like the planning of the movie

00:33:10.360 and apparently george lucas was like

00:33:12.740 pushing for to be like 11

00:33:14.000 what

00:33:15.480 like she's like 21 in the movie

00:33:16.820 and it was 10 years ago

00:33:17.720 and she was 11

00:33:18.380 and all the other writers are like

00:33:20.380 uh

00:33:21.040 i don't know if 11's the right number guy

00:33:23.860 i think that might be a little

00:33:26.120 that's just creepy

00:33:27.260 lucas is like

00:33:27.800 how about 12

00:33:28.760 no

00:33:29.640 so they eventually got him to like 15 or 16

00:33:33.740 for what

00:33:35.020 and it doesn't mean anything in the plot

00:33:36.860 right

00:33:37.200 it's like it's totally

00:33:38.160 he was just apparently wanted to write a lot about

00:33:40.560 something very weird

00:33:41.920 so

00:33:42.740 wow

00:33:43.320 this got us thinking about how these things have changed

00:33:46.100 because remember

00:33:46.720 indiana jones

00:33:47.640 came out in the 80s

00:33:49.480 but it took place in the 30s

00:33:51.160 so in the 30s standards were quite quite different

00:33:54.680 but even since the 80s

00:33:56.780 the 60s the 70s the 80s

00:33:58.880 standards have changed quite a bit

00:34:00.840 some

00:34:01.160 some of the songs that were released back then

00:34:03.700 could not come out today

00:34:05.380 they just

00:34:06.160 it would not happen

00:34:07.040 um

00:34:08.380 should we go through some of these

00:34:09.640 because

00:34:09.880 yeah

00:34:10.280 some of them are

00:34:11.700 are kind of amazing

00:34:12.800 um

00:34:13.980 okay

00:34:14.200 under my thumb

00:34:14.880 the rolling stones

00:34:15.900 yeah

00:34:17.100 uh

00:34:17.460 from 1966

00:34:18.300 it's about

00:34:19.340 um

00:34:19.880 a power struggle between the

00:34:21.460 this

00:34:21.740 this couple

00:34:22.360 and uh

00:34:23.560 at the time of its

00:34:24.340 release

00:34:25.080 it was criticized by feminists

00:34:26.700 even back then

00:34:27.460 for subjugating the woman to

00:34:29.280 uh

00:34:29.800 being like a

00:34:31.420 quote

00:34:31.860 squirming dog

00:34:32.920 probably wouldn't do that

00:34:35.100 so

00:34:35.460 you couldn't do that today

00:34:36.620 and apparently they didn't even like it back in 1966

00:34:38.820 uh

00:34:40.280 it's not all sexual stuff though

00:34:41.560 like for like

00:34:41.980 uh

00:34:42.320 in the summertime

00:34:43.100 no there's fine

00:34:47.060 so if you sung

00:34:50.360 you sang along to that song before

00:34:51.640 you probably said

00:34:52.600 have a drink

00:34:53.560 have a drive

00:34:55.060 which is again

00:34:56.860 like you're not in that order

00:34:58.420 not really supposed to do that

00:34:59.500 uh

00:34:59.980 go out and see what you can find

00:35:01.160 if her daddy's rich

00:35:02.220 take her out for a meal

00:35:03.340 if her daddy's poor

00:35:04.640 just do what you feel

00:35:06.320 okay

00:35:08.840 yeah

00:35:09.180 not appropriate

00:35:09.920 no

00:35:10.340 now from the beatles

00:35:11.880 uh

00:35:12.560 the song run for your life

00:35:13.740 i'd rather see you dead little girl

00:35:16.640 than to be with another man

00:35:18.360 kind of not cool

00:35:19.440 yeah

00:35:19.720 seems like a little over the line

00:35:20.760 yeah

00:35:21.100 getting better with the beatles

00:35:22.380 has uh

00:35:23.060 i used to be cruel to my woman

00:35:24.880 i beat her

00:35:26.400 jeez

00:35:26.920 and kept her apart from the things that she loved

00:35:29.380 you psychopath

00:35:30.500 that had to be uh

00:35:32.260 what ringo

00:35:32.780 not good

00:35:33.480 ringo i think did the

00:35:34.480 it came up with that lyric

00:35:35.440 because he's in here again later on

00:35:37.380 and uh

00:35:38.560 of course

00:35:40.180 your squaw

00:35:41.040 is on the war path

00:35:42.300 by loretta lynn

00:35:43.940 i think getting better

00:35:44.900 was mccartney's song

00:35:45.940 really

00:35:46.760 i think so

00:35:47.540 yeah

00:35:48.480 i mean maybe

00:35:49.580 i just feel like ringo

00:35:50.740 had a

00:35:51.120 he's got a

00:35:51.840 super appropriate though

00:35:53.000 even in this

00:35:54.220 in 1967

00:35:55.420 you could say that

00:35:56.480 that doesn't seem right

00:35:57.660 not at all

00:35:59.060 your squaw

00:35:59.660 is on the war path

00:36:00.440 by loretta lynn

00:36:01.180 has uh

00:36:01.740 well you leave me at home

00:36:02.920 to keep the teepee clean

00:36:04.200 um

00:36:06.680 then you've got

00:36:07.260 i mean some of these are

00:36:08.260 ahab the arab

00:36:09.620 which was by ray stevens

00:36:11.240 a comedy song

00:36:12.120 yeah

00:36:12.560 that he kind of changed

00:36:14.240 the pronunciation of arab

00:36:15.620 because

00:36:16.480 ahab doesn't rhyme with arab

00:36:18.620 so you

00:36:19.600 had to say

00:36:20.600 ahab the arab

00:36:21.880 and of course

00:36:23.420 that's not how you pronounce it

00:36:24.620 and they take offense to that

00:36:25.680 now

00:36:26.400 short people by randy newman

00:36:28.300 i come

00:36:28.660 you know

00:36:29.040 that's come on

00:36:29.820 jokey and silly

00:36:30.740 jokey and silly

00:36:31.680 and and it was a

00:36:32.700 a

00:36:33.300 uh

00:36:34.320 an ironic song

00:36:35.380 he was being ironic

00:36:36.360 throughout it

00:36:37.020 uh brown sugar

00:36:38.220 by the rolling stones

00:36:38.980 now this one has

00:36:39.700 made news before

00:36:40.700 i thought about this one

00:36:41.380 many times

00:36:41.900 the song features

00:36:42.620 so many taboo subjects

00:36:43.680 including forced sex

00:36:45.220 with an underage

00:36:46.180 slave girl

00:36:47.180 probably not the topic

00:36:49.720 you want to lead

00:36:50.520 a very well known song

00:36:52.520 with

00:36:53.020 yeah

00:36:53.500 some of these though

00:36:54.260 are like not as well known

00:36:55.360 uh one in a million

00:36:56.320 by guns and roses

00:36:57.080 i don't remember it

00:36:58.080 i don't either

00:36:58.580 1988 rock song

00:36:59.860 describes axel rose's

00:37:01.060 experience getting hustled

00:37:02.200 at a greyhound bus station

00:37:03.540 when he first came to los angeles

00:37:05.400 in the lyrics

00:37:06.160 the following groups

00:37:07.040 are denigrated

00:37:07.620 the police

00:37:08.880 well that one you can

00:37:09.580 totally still do

00:37:10.220 totally okay to do that one

00:37:11.960 uh black people

00:37:13.180 and he uses the n word

00:37:14.660 okay that's not

00:37:15.960 okay

00:37:16.420 immigrants

00:37:17.460 and gays

00:37:19.260 calling them the f word

00:37:20.780 for gays

00:37:21.920 in the song

00:37:22.980 not good

00:37:23.700 not

00:37:24.320 would not be done

00:37:25.220 today in my opinion

00:37:26.680 not acceptable

00:37:27.520 uh china girl by david bowie

00:37:30.060 yeah

00:37:30.300 hard to believe

00:37:31.680 um

00:37:32.640 these days china girls

00:37:34.720 are asian women

00:37:35.520 of course

00:37:36.140 you can't

00:37:36.680 you can't say china girl

00:37:37.700 anymore

00:37:38.140 um

00:37:39.180 but he

00:37:40.580 uh he

00:37:41.380 he's saying

00:37:42.200 now he says

00:37:43.680 that this was about

00:37:45.080 uh

00:37:46.180 ridiculing

00:37:48.140 stereotypes

00:37:49.060 of asian women

00:37:49.860 so in the

00:37:50.100 almost in the short people

00:37:51.280 sort of

00:37:51.780 yes

00:37:52.180 uh genre

00:37:53.060 yes

00:37:53.480 but in the

00:37:54.700 it's really strange

00:37:55.880 because in the

00:37:56.720 in the video

00:37:57.820 for the song

00:37:58.660 he does

00:37:59.580 something

00:37:59.860 with his eyes

00:38:00.640 that uh

00:38:01.700 you really

00:38:02.700 couldn't

00:38:03.320 get away

00:38:03.720 with today

00:38:04.220 i mean

00:38:04.620 you would be

00:38:05.200 you would be

00:38:06.720 cancelled

00:38:07.460 yeah

00:38:07.740 not

00:38:08.040 your songs

00:38:09.160 would not be

00:38:09.840 purchased

00:38:10.320 any longer

00:38:10.940 stop aap i hate

00:38:12.800 david bowie

00:38:13.760 yes

00:38:14.360 that's what i say

00:38:15.300 please

00:38:15.720 how island girl

00:38:16.720 by elton john

00:38:17.520 uh it's about a

00:38:18.960 jamaican woman who

00:38:19.880 is quote

00:38:20.440 black as coal

00:38:21.920 who works as a

00:38:23.780 prostitute in

00:38:24.580 manhattan

00:38:25.140 a black boy is

00:38:27.040 trying to take her

00:38:27.920 again quote

00:38:28.680 quoting black boy

00:38:29.940 is trying to take

00:38:30.760 her back to the

00:38:31.520 island and asks

00:38:32.180 what are you

00:38:32.680 wanting with a

00:38:33.280 white man's world

00:38:34.060 probably not going

00:38:35.000 to work today

00:38:35.500 uh dire straits

00:38:36.880 money for nothing

00:38:37.500 is well known

00:38:38.120 um you may

00:38:39.080 remember this

00:38:39.840 yeah

00:38:40.220 they use the

00:38:40.920 f word for

00:38:42.040 uh gays

00:38:43.420 multiple times

00:38:44.620 multiple times

00:38:45.700 now that was

00:38:46.440 taken out even

00:38:47.060 back then

00:38:47.600 on some radio

00:38:49.000 stations

00:38:49.520 others just let

00:38:50.880 it play

00:38:51.480 which you

00:38:52.280 couldn't possibly

00:38:53.340 do today

00:38:53.920 i think

00:38:54.340 and if i

00:38:54.920 understand right

00:38:55.420 i think they're

00:38:56.040 still playing

00:38:57.820 the song

00:38:58.660 the way it

00:38:59.240 is which is

00:39:00.080 somewhat surprising

00:39:01.880 if they are

00:39:02.420 yeah it is

00:39:02.940 yeah with the

00:39:04.560 f word in it

00:39:05.500 not bleeped at

00:39:06.840 all

00:39:07.320 because i mean

00:39:07.960 it's one thing

00:39:08.400 to play a song

00:39:09.320 the way it was

00:39:10.100 it's another thing

00:39:10.640 to perform it

00:39:11.400 live today

00:39:12.280 yeah

00:39:12.760 yeah

00:39:13.680 that's dangerous

00:39:14.720 it's changing

00:39:16.700 these things

00:39:17.160 what does it do

00:39:17.840 does it actually

00:39:18.780 help society

00:39:19.840 probably not

00:39:20.820 no

00:39:21.140 but usually

00:39:21.860 you know

00:39:22.260 just these

00:39:23.140 artists don't

00:39:23.620 want to be on

00:39:24.280 video doing it

00:39:25.560 right

00:39:26.240 um

00:39:27.120 ringo star

00:39:27.840 you're 16

00:39:28.860 there was a lot

00:39:30.880 of these back

00:39:31.500 in the 70s

00:39:32.180 yes

00:39:32.540 about 16 year

00:39:33.520 olds

00:39:33.680 i don't know

00:39:34.400 why

00:39:34.780 i

00:39:35.120 i

00:39:35.500 pat

00:39:35.940 i

00:39:36.220 i

00:39:37.240 don't know

00:39:37.700 in fact

00:39:38.580 the song

00:39:39.400 my

00:39:39.600 sharona

00:39:40.000 by

00:39:40.360 the knack

00:39:41.400 in 1979

00:39:42.300 kind of got

00:39:43.000 that band

00:39:43.660 shut down

00:39:44.840 even back then

00:39:45.680 because they were

00:39:46.220 singing about young

00:39:46.900 girls all the time

00:39:47.660 yeah

00:39:47.940 there's a lot of

00:39:48.860 that going on

00:39:49.420 and they're like

00:39:49.880 um okay

00:39:50.600 that's creepy

00:39:51.220 that's weird

00:39:52.260 that was your

00:39:52.680 16 year beautiful

00:39:53.540 and you're mine

00:39:54.140 yes

00:39:54.760 for ringo star

00:39:56.020 fat bottom girls

00:39:57.140 by queen

00:39:57.660 now you think

00:39:58.280 that one would

00:39:58.900 be banned

00:39:59.560 because it

00:40:01.100 or questionable

00:40:02.360 because you're

00:40:03.020 fat shaming

00:40:03.660 like that's what

00:40:04.420 i would think

00:40:04.920 when i would hear

00:40:05.440 that

00:40:05.700 however

00:40:06.240 no

00:40:06.980 this is

00:40:07.660 the lyrics

00:40:08.560 of the song

00:40:09.620 but i knew love

00:40:10.920 before i left

00:40:11.740 my nursery

00:40:12.560 wow

00:40:13.620 uh

00:40:14.300 okay

00:40:14.640 left alone

00:40:15.580 with big fat

00:40:16.360 fanny

00:40:16.860 she was such

00:40:17.840 a naughty

00:40:18.320 nanny

00:40:19.560 heap big woman

00:40:21.240 you made a bad

00:40:22.060 boy out of me

00:40:22.700 so this

00:40:23.240 this young man

00:40:24.360 seems to have

00:40:25.220 been raped

00:40:25.580 that's what i would

00:40:26.540 say occurred

00:40:27.560 you wouldn't think

00:40:29.460 that they'd sing

00:40:30.060 a fun rock song

00:40:30.940 about it later on

00:40:31.800 but sometimes

00:40:32.520 these things occur

00:40:33.180 i mean don't

00:40:33.860 stand so close

00:40:34.520 to me by the

00:40:35.040 police

00:40:35.340 it's a great

00:40:36.840 song but the

00:40:37.520 subject matter

00:40:38.140 is not great

00:40:40.420 yeah a school

00:40:41.300 girl twice

00:40:41.900 and a teacher

00:40:42.600 twice her age

00:40:43.880 cross a dangerous

00:40:44.740 line by having

00:40:45.400 an illegal and

00:40:46.000 appropriate affair

00:40:46.740 inappropriate affair

00:40:48.080 not appropriate

00:40:48.880 and i don't think

00:40:50.700 he ever does

00:40:51.400 in the song

00:40:52.300 does he

00:40:53.200 he's trying to

00:40:53.900 resist her

00:40:54.460 basically

00:40:54.840 he's trying to

00:40:55.500 talk himself out

00:40:56.280 of it

00:40:56.500 basically

00:40:57.080 is what i would

00:40:57.800 say

00:40:57.980 yes

00:40:58.480 how about

00:40:58.840 father figure

00:40:59.520 from george

00:41:00.140 michael

00:41:00.460 1987

00:41:01.000 uh

00:41:02.440 this i've never

00:41:03.380 i don't remember

00:41:03.920 this line in the

00:41:04.460 song

00:41:04.640 that's all i

00:41:05.440 wanted

00:41:05.760 but sometimes

00:41:06.880 love can be

00:41:07.980 mistaken

00:41:08.560 for a crime

00:41:10.400 so he's

00:41:12.220 basically saying

00:41:12.980 this is like

00:41:13.660 the nambla

00:41:14.400 argument

00:41:14.920 you know

00:41:15.920 hey look
