00:03:20.580 you some slight evidence of that uh let me just show you well let me start in 2019 here's an american eagle

00:03:30.840 ad uh from 2019 do we have it yeah there there we go this is an american eagle ad from 2019 i'm

00:03:40.840 showing you a poster of a very large lizzo style woman style i mean look at the size of that woman

00:03:52.340 okay that's a lot of denim that's a lot of denim didn't know america made that much denim but

00:03:58.860 that's 2019 now let me show you uh with uh sydney sweeney a new ad uh for america and american eagle

00:04:11.040 she's in tight jeans a tank top white tank top and she's sydney sweeney has very keen yeah getting

00:04:19.460 into a ford gt 350 a mustang hello hello recognizing the american man again you get into a mustang a three

00:04:38.860 gt 350 which is a lot of people on there i wish i had that car list um sweeney which is on a lot of

00:04:47.900 people's i wish i had that gal list gentlemen's gentlemen tend to appreciate her they do she's

00:04:54.120 she's not ashamed of her looks no she you know doesn't mind if you know she dresses to impress

00:05:01.880 the male species okay uh that ad is directly aimed at american men the kind of men that everyone has

00:05:13.440 said for the last 10 years should be ashamed of themselves i will say i don't agree with that

00:05:19.180 it is not at all named at the uh typical american man it is aimed at the typical american woman

00:05:26.020 because it is saying to uh women who this is true about a lot of them don't you want to look good for

00:05:34.400 men that's what it's saying wow it's not even say because i mean i'm not buying those jeans she looks

00:05:40.960 hot in the jeans but i'm not buying the jeans who's buying the jeans well american eagle does

00:05:45.540 both right yeah but i'm not buying american eagle jeans because sydney sweeney looks great in american

00:05:51.020 eagle no but i will pay attention to american eagle very true i might go into american eagle

00:05:55.840 when i've been before but like what i think what they're acknowledging there is hey men and women

00:06:00.860 are attracted to each other yes when when you present an image of a woman who's attractive to men

00:06:07.080 women might want to buy the products that make them also look attractive to men and that's okay

00:06:11.700 either way this ad would not have happened a few years ago just two years ago would not have

00:06:21.140 happened do i need to bring up the american eagle thing one more time yeah okay that's where we were

00:06:27.820 yes the the lizzo style model in american eagle now this is the first jeans that i have seen where

00:06:38.380 you know you have that style where they're ripped jeans okay these might be ripped because of her

00:06:44.640 trying to get into them yeah i mean structurally this ad is more impressive the fact that they can

00:06:49.900 keep all that together is really like hey maybe they do make incredible jeans right and who's that

00:06:56.180 supposed to impress now but i mean and like that's that's you would say that's shooting towards

00:07:01.040 women hey be comfortable in your own skin right and look there's nothing wrong with that like there's

00:07:05.840 i happen to be one of the people who's a little larger than than the uh the average uh model a little

00:07:12.220 in an animal it's just slightly it's hard to detect but yeah i mean um but like there's nothing wrong

00:07:17.580 with people advertising to people who are larger but i mean there's also nothing wrong with someone

00:07:23.020 being hot and having a muscle car and we totally threw that away for years and years i have no

00:07:30.420 problem celebrate your diversity i have no problem you know i really have a problem where you know if

00:07:38.440 you're overweight you can't get a good pair of jeans you can't get nice clothing you got to go to target

00:07:45.500 or walmart to get clothing uh and not that walmart and target doesn't have nice clothing but it is the

00:07:53.820 place where you can't go into a you can't go into a i don't know ralph lauren or some you know really

00:08:01.640 like upscale upscale brand and they don't make 3x you know what i mean right they don't make it

00:08:09.420 unless it's for like basketball players then they'll make it it's just 3x tall all right uh and

00:08:17.000 i it really bothers me because there were all kinds of different bodies but we were denying

00:08:22.360 that there are different style bodies and we were we were glorifying fat

00:08:29.340 no we shouldn't glorify fat right shouldn't glorify it and also like

00:08:35.600 america america america is not just about muscle cars and sydney sweeney although that's a wonderful

00:08:42.900 piece of it yeah well it's also about aspiring toward something right muscle cars and sweeney right

00:08:49.260 yeah right like you know the thing that drives me more crazy than anything that politicians say and

00:08:54.140 it's mostly democrats but republicans say it as well it's like you know this is a great country and we

00:08:59.140 need to get back to where we've been you know this is a country that's always aspired to be in the

00:09:03.500 middle class and and i was like well there's nothing wrong with being in the middle class

00:09:08.480 but that's not what we're supposed to be aspiring for we aspire for the for the best we're america

00:09:15.740 of course we aspire for the best that doesn't mean only material things i can give you the 9 000

00:09:22.000 disclaimers i'm supposed to on that sentence but at the end of the day we don't aspire to be middle

00:09:27.640 class there's nothing wrong with being middle class i would rephrase that mediocre middle in

00:09:33.340 the middle yeah when you're talking about finances right but you're talking that is the middle right

00:09:38.140 but there is no problem and i know you're not saying this there is no problem wanting to be in

00:09:44.540 the middle class if your priorities are for uh you know having a happy family you know right you know

00:09:52.260 but like you know having that having that lawn with a picket fence or whatever it is that you

00:09:57.380 dream that's a separate it's a separate aspiration it is because i think of course we aspire to that i

00:10:02.920 aspire to that more than i would aspire to be an elitist or have millions of dollars right but i don't

00:10:08.820 what i what i what i think is it's not about what class you're in it's to that you have the right

00:10:16.480 to dream your own dream and accomplish it you have a chance to accomplish you're locking me in

00:10:23.780 disclaimer prison and and what i'm but what i am literally saying is when the commentary is about

00:10:30.300 class which is what i'm bringing up yes yeah okay we don't aspire to be middle class like everyone

00:10:35.900 who's in middle class uh has struggles in their lives right they might have to pay you know they

00:10:40.920 might have struggles paying for health insurance or their rent or their mortgage or whatever it is

00:10:44.740 and everyone aspires to not have those problems there's nothing wrong with saying that it's it's

00:10:49.500 a lot easier life is a lot easier when you have more money yeah and then you can do all those things

00:10:53.900 and you know what if you make millions and millions of dollars and you're just the most perfect person

00:10:57.360 and you don't want to spend any money on any material things blah blah blah blah you can give it all

00:11:01.100 away and do even more good the bottom line is we have to like act like we don't want to do better

00:11:07.900 we have to act like we all are okay with being 85 pounds overweight it's okay it's wonderful let's

00:11:13.660 celebrate maybe we shouldn't maybe let's like that's the problem we celebrate the mediocre or the

00:11:20.400 dangerous when it comes to fat we have been celebrating that we should not celebrate that

00:11:25.640 we should celebrate the fact that you have the ability to do whatever you want but everybody who

00:11:31.080 is celebrating the middle says you can't get past the middle you may never even get to the middle

00:11:37.580 because someone's holding you down whether it's some party or it is the country or the system

00:11:45.720 it's rigged against you you know it's not rigged against you it's not and even if it is rigged against

00:11:54.640 you so what are you gonna do well you work around it you find a way around you know what you know what

00:12:01.940 was rigged against uh the pioneers the rocky mountains yeah crossing the country and getting

00:12:10.320 to the pacific it was as if the land was rigged against it so you find a way through them and we

00:12:18.140 all aspire to climb the front half of the mountain and stop about three quarters of the way up and just

00:12:23.560 live there that's what we all aspire to you know good although i will tell you i would have oh i

00:12:33.120 wouldn't i wouldn't have aspired to it i would have hoped i could have achieved it but known i would

00:12:37.320 have failed yeah i don't even think i would have gone three quarters up i think i would have stood

00:12:40.560 at the base of it going i'm not doing that thank you no thanks no thank you not doing it uh i mean

00:12:45.760 but there would have been that moment where you woke up like you were listening to some podcast that

00:12:49.220 was inspirational you're like you know i'm gonna tomorrow i'm climbing that mountain i'm gonna get

00:12:53.440 to the other side you would have been at some 1800s tony robbins convention who went i'm climbing

00:13:00.020 that mountain and then three days later you'd be like that was crazy i should have no way but like

00:13:05.680 again in a way the this ad with sydney sweeney is is a way of acknowledging a couple of things one

00:13:11.560 most men would would like the idea of be of having uh yeah you know a relationship a girlfriend when

00:13:21.220 they're younger or whatever that looks like sydney sweeney and it also is acknowledging that most women

00:13:26.640 would like to look like sydney sweeney at some version right yes now i will acknowledge she's a

00:13:32.560 little top heavy probably later in life is going to be falling over and not be able to stand up straight

00:13:36.000 but that's a whole thing that's separate maybe at that point they wouldn't but like generally

00:13:41.160 speaking people like to be attractive they let it's okay to acknowledge those things that does

00:13:46.160 not mean it's the most important thing in life no it's like the car is the car is the car is pretty

00:13:51.560 great gt 350 that's a pretty important yeah that's important but you should uh it's not the only thing

00:13:57.720 you should aspire to it's not the most important thing but it's okay to acknowledge that it's these

00:14:01.980 things are great it's okay it's great it's a great part of american life and isn't that what

00:14:05.600 america was it's okay it's okay nobody was trying i'm i've never tried to jam my version of america

00:14:15.620 down anyone's throat i have stood uh for people who are on the opposite side when they were when they

00:14:22.840 were thrown under the bus by the left or the right i've stood with them because i'm not it's okay

00:14:30.140 we can handle it you know america is a tough place we were the people who crossed the mountains we're

00:14:38.080 rugged we're tough we can take it and once we start coddling everybody that's when it all falls apart

00:14:44.680 and by the way there's a second ad for sweeney and here it is here it is now my body's composition

00:14:50.740 is determined by my genes oh my gosh hey eyes up here so funny city's twinny hasbert canes

00:15:00.840 so now i would just like to point out so this ad goes right to her cleavage uh and then the

00:15:08.660 camera is pulled back up to her eyes um that is uh that is can we stop playing it's distracting

00:15:15.920 um now we could look at this ad and say yes but it still has it still has a progressive message

00:15:26.360 all about the genes they're still trying to engineer people she has great genes and you can be spliced

00:15:36.700 into that so easily you could look at it that way maybe there's maybe they're just using her

00:15:43.720 to push their eugenics message oh yeah it could be could be plus you get a great car as well

00:15:54.460 let me tell you about the burner launcher you've ever had that feeling walking up your car crossing

00:15:59.580 the parking lot answering the doorbell at night that feeling something's off you don't know exactly

00:16:05.140 what's off but you wish you had some options right now the burner launcher is not a firearm but it is a

00:16:10.680 form of protection it fires non-lethal pepper projectiles at 300 feet per second fast enough

00:16:16.400 to disable an attacker without taking a life no bullets no background checks no permits required

00:16:21.800 and it's legal in all 50 states i have to tell you i mean this sincerely this product is so good

00:16:27.240 and it would solve our school shooting problems it would solve it because you could have this with

00:16:34.180 teachers could carry this i don't want a gun because i think it's not a weapon of war this is just

00:16:40.040 stopping somebody without killing them it's just putting them on the ground and the the shooting stops

00:16:45.060 what is wrong with people oh i remember they don't actually want to solve the problem

00:16:51.360 burn a byrna.com if you're in a school district you should you should absolutely bring this up and say

00:16:59.140 i want burn a launchers and you should get a bunch of parents put them in your your schools uh you can

00:17:04.940 find the demonstrations at select sportsman's warehouse stores burn a retail stores and authorized

00:17:09.660 premier dealers it's burn a byrna.com go there now burn a.com now back to the podcast this is the

00:17:16.920 best of the glenn beck program and we really want to thank you for listening welcome to stew bergeer

00:17:21.720 our executive producer on the program did you watch uh powell and donald trump and the hardheads

00:17:27.920 yes it was a it was a fun it was a fun moment i felt like let me play you just a clip yesterday

00:17:35.740 donald trump went to uh the federal reserve first time i think in two decades that that a president

00:17:43.500 has made an official visit to the federal reserve yeah it was george w bush right yeah so uh he comes in

00:17:50.580 and he's getting a tour in hard hats uh throughout the federal reserve because they're making a

00:17:57.420 trillion and a half dollar uh renovation of the federal reserve trillion and a half dollars

00:18:06.980 not trillion and a half no sorry tell me in an app sorry because that would be an awesome building i

00:18:13.700 know but billion doesn't sound like a lot anymore does it no it doesn't yeah so a billion and a half

00:18:17.380 dollar renovation um so you know donald trump said yesterday that he redid the old post office and

00:18:23.340 made it into a really nice uh hotel and remember bathrooms and kitchens are the most expensive it had

00:18:29.500 like 200 marble slabbed bathrooms in it uh for 200 million so this is quite the renovation that the

00:18:37.080 federal reserve is doing on your tax dollar and you can complain you might say oh donald trump i don't

00:18:42.980 all the people on the media like he doesn't know enough about this and he doesn't know enough about

00:18:46.760 that he knows enough about this yeah he does there's anyone who knows how to renovate a building it's

00:18:51.240 probably him okay so listen here is here is the back and forth between trump and powell it looks like

00:18:57.200 it's about 3.1 billion it went up a little bit or a lot uh so the 2.7 is now 3.1 i'm not aware of that

00:19:05.960 yeah it just came out yeah he takes out no that's what it is and he takes out a sheet he's like here

00:19:15.800 powell here it is about 3.1 as well 3.1 3.2 this came from us yes i don't know who does it

00:19:23.400 awkward you're including the martin renovation you just said your entire capital you just had you

00:19:30.060 just added in a third building is what that is that's a third building it's a building that's

00:19:34.580 being built no it's been it was built five years ago we finished martin five years ago it's part of

00:19:40.060 the overall work so uh so we're gonna take a look we're gonna see what's happening uh and it's

00:19:48.460 got a long way do you expect any more additional cost of loans don't expect them uh we're we're

00:19:54.840 ready for them but we're ready for them with our tax dollars okay that's an amazing clip for a hundred

00:20:01.020 different reasons yeah right um and when they first met i don't know do we have the the video of him

00:20:07.220 just getting slapped on the back let's look at this like he's got a long way to go yes sir so

00:20:12.160 are there things are there things the chairman can say to you today that would make you back off

00:20:17.160 some of the earlier criticism well i'd love him to lower interest rates other than that what can i

00:20:23.300 wax him on the back wax him on the back okay this is donald trump this is the way that visit was all

00:20:30.600 about intimidation okay the slapping on the back the aggressive handshakes that he gives okay i mean

00:20:36.300 that's the guy he is and it's not it's just the guy he is and he dominates a room you walk into any

00:20:43.520 room with donald trump even before he was president he controls the room he just does he's a guy who

00:20:49.720 just walks in and all the oxygen goes right to him it's an amazing thing to watch yeah these are old

00:20:54.900 school power dynamics yes right i mean but they work they work yeah i mean because like you watch that

00:21:01.780 clip there's no reason to to have that moment in front of cameras nope there's that was a moment

00:21:09.060 correct me if you think i'm wrong planned yeah i was gonna say do you think it was planned because

00:21:13.080 absolutely number one he does it in front of cameras uh he's saying basically there's a massive

00:21:18.260 cost overrun with the guy by the guy he's standing next to in front of cameras which would be an

00:21:23.800 embarrassing moment for this guy in theory um then he also has a a letter in his jacket to pull out

00:21:30.000 when he when he says no that's not happening he pulls it out he knows that's coming now look

00:21:34.480 the building was finished five years ago it is a it's a what his point was you're right you're right

00:21:40.680 but it was his his point was it is this is part of your renovation right i know i know i know i mean

00:21:47.320 it's not a cost a new cost overrun the way he's presenting it but he's doing that intentionally

00:21:51.800 because it's old school power dynamics right like it because this seems to be something that trump

00:21:56.700 thinks about a lot for a lot of different reasons this is like you think well so let me show you

00:22:02.620 let me show you what he did that what he's doing here is the same he what has he been saying about

00:22:07.320 powell um he's been saying he needs to he's dumb he needs to resign he's dumb he's saying he's dumb

00:22:14.440 we have a dumb person at the fed who's not lowering interest rates that what that tactic the best

00:22:20.540 uh example of that tactic tactic is little rocket man look at little rocket man yeah well

00:22:28.600 little rocket man maybe i'm just gonna have to wipe him off the face of the earth and then what does

00:22:33.180 he do he goes where no president has ever gone before to little rocket man space and sucks all the

00:22:43.820 oxygen out of that room okay and stands next this giant standing next to little rocket man did you

00:22:50.440 notice how big trump looked next to little powell i mean it was almost the same power dynamic okay

00:22:58.400 um and and powell knows powell knows he's trump i think is older than powell and look at how young

00:23:06.040 trump looks next to powell he does look younger yeah so he's been saying little rocket man little

00:23:11.580 rocket man little rocket man he then goes to the to the place where little rocket man is in this case

00:23:18.580 the federal reserve and then what happens what is he saying today you know i i'm not gonna fire

00:23:28.680 powell because i think he's gonna do the right thing i mean we had a really nice meeting and you know i'm

00:23:35.040 while those cost overruns are important i think he's got it under control i think he's gonna there's i

00:23:40.180 don't know if there's a reason to investigate gives him an out basically gives him a complete

00:23:44.400 out he has hit him hard then he meets with him and hits him hard again in front of the press i can

00:23:50.880 guarantee you they had a delightful conversation behind uh and he's now we're now in that place

00:23:58.940 where it's lather rinse repeat you don't repeat if everything is your hair is clean right you don't

00:24:06.100 you don't have to do it a second time if everything is fine so he'll do that lather rinse

00:24:11.320 am i gonna repeat do i have to repeat because i'll repeat we'll go back to lather i just rinsed i

00:24:18.120 lathered up yesterday we rinsed are you are you clean enough now or do you need to repeat this cycle

00:24:25.560 that's exactly what he's doing and he's kind of also giving him the message that i'm going to make

00:24:30.960 your life a living hell every day and he's doing it in powell's space yeah there's something about

00:24:37.380 doing it in someone else's space shows you do not have fear but he works on both sides of that right

00:24:43.280 because he does sometimes go into their space and do this type of thing yeah but also and this because

00:24:48.500 when i was watching this interaction it reminded me of something you talked about about when you

00:24:52.080 were in the white house of the way he's designing the white house he's thinking about these old

00:24:59.620 school power dynamics constantly when he's designing what the white house is like

00:25:03.860 so he is because this really bothers me um because america isn't we don't have palaces for our president

00:25:11.340 right okay and uh he's putting gold everywhere and i didn't say to him that you know hey the gold

00:25:21.740 thing you know maybe you should cool your jets on that he brought it up to me um and he said

00:25:28.520 look at the gold i mean this is beautiful and this is like it's 24 carat gold is that the most is that

00:25:35.160 the the best 24 carat 12 carat i can't remember but it's the most expensive kind of gold okay it's not

00:25:42.200 like spray paint gold it's not dabble on it's actual gold leaf really really expensive and he's paying for

00:25:48.660 all of it and um he said he said you like this i've got a gold leaf basically i'm gonna go i'm thinking

00:25:56.520 about gold leafing melania soon um and and i'm sitting there and i'm thinking this is not an

00:26:03.560 this is not a palace and he almost sensed this i think from me he said you know i know we don't

00:26:11.660 have a palace but everybody from foreign countries that comes in they are around palaces they see power

00:26:19.280 a certain way and he said so i want to make sure when they're sitting in here they understand this

00:26:26.500 is the most powerful room in the world in every language that they might speak okay so he's doing

00:26:34.300 all this to uh to as a way to intimidate again and if you look at it you would think united states is

00:26:43.760 is broke i can't believe they're gold leafing no they're not he is so he's not he's not only saying

00:26:51.880 this is the most powerful office but i'm putting gold all over it because i'm wealthy and powerful

00:26:58.580 because i unlike maybe you macron i wasn't in politics i went out and actually built giant buildings

00:27:08.080 in the biggest city in the world okay so he's again exercising a power dynamic and when you watch

00:27:16.140 him in those meetings where notice he has press conferences with these guys how do we usually

00:27:22.060 announce big things with countries when their prime minister or their president comes over we we we put

00:27:29.140 them up as equals they each get one question you know right back and forth their media gets one yeah

00:27:34.820 yeah yeah you get you get the president on one side of the room and the foreign president or leader

00:27:40.200 on the other side of the room they back and forth and they're equal and the flags are there not with

00:27:45.240 president trump very few are getting that they're all sitting down in his office in that intimidating

00:27:52.800 space and a gaggle comes in and he's like hey i want to introduce you here's the president of the

00:27:58.480 philippines he's a great guy we're doing some great stuff we got this new deal blah blah blah and maybe

00:28:04.240 maybe the president of the philippines will get one question maybe maybe maybe like all right so

00:28:09.940 are you really the president of the philippines okay is that really a country still country i didn't

00:28:14.700 know that um so maybe he'll get one question but then that guy has to sit there uncomfortably

00:28:21.460 while the president is answering questions about the world about the country elon musk or whatever

00:28:28.220 else is going on in his life yeah he has nothing to say so he just sits there as a secondary

00:28:33.280 that again is a negotiation tactic donald trump people don't think he thinks about this stuff

00:28:41.220 they don't think he's a deep thinker because maybe because of his language but i think his language

00:28:47.020 is also a choice his language is a choice one i know he can i know he can you know he understands big

00:28:56.060 words um but he speaks the language of the common man for a couple of reasons one

00:29:03.020 i believe that was the language he learned in construction with his father because he had to

00:29:09.340 start working at the bottom you want to build a hotel son great then you need to know how the air

00:29:15.640 conditioning handlers work in fact you're going to go down and work side by side and you're going to

00:29:20.140 help build them so he grew up in the business world talking to those guys that's why those guys love

00:29:27.240 him because he speaks their language also have you noticed donald trump has started to let the f-bombs

00:29:34.140 fly now why would he do that why would he do that did you see what joe rogan was just saying about

00:29:42.780 hunter biden he was just saying you know the guy he doesn't care he just uses the f-bombs like

00:29:49.680 everybody else does and that was endearing to rogan and also the atlantic that we you know he just he

00:29:58.960 doesn't care he just is who he is well donald trump is showing you a little bit more who he is where he

00:30:06.180 wasn't in 2016 2017 2018 2019 now he's speaking the language because i believe our culture is not in a way

00:30:14.920 i like but our culture is changing and he is adapting to it as well the guy is brilliant i wish

00:30:23.600 i could spend a month with him because i think i could write a book about donald trump and what how

00:30:28.520 he thinks just spending a day with him a few weeks ago and hearing how he spoke about every piece of art

00:30:36.180 in the what he selected every piece of art and where it should go and it was to clarify who he is

00:30:46.000 and what he wants to accomplish remind him what his job is so all the way from his bedroom all the way

00:30:53.180 down to the oval the the art on the wall is to remind him of who he is and what he's doing

00:31:00.280 if you're on a tour you come in and you see donald trump on one wall and he selected barack obama

00:31:09.300 for the other wall george bush doesn't even have a painting in a bathroom he put barack obama there

00:31:16.980 as a symbol of we're a country that is split but this house brings us all together would anyone ever give

00:31:26.600 him credit for thinking that way he's thinking about what the message is on the tour he's he's really

00:31:35.740 brilliant and i think that's why things are changing so rapidly is because he's using he knows how it

00:31:42.220 works now he knows the game he's playing he's learned it he's mastered it and now he's just executing

00:31:50.360 one after another check check check check check and look at the results in six months this weekend

00:31:56.960 is officially six months in he's accomplished more than i think any other president uh has accomplished

00:32:03.980 in maybe their full term in six months now i'd like to see it codified but if if he had a senate and a house

00:32:13.220 that were actually you know doing the business of the people it would be codified

00:32:18.140 but he has made more let me let me give you an example of a couple of things he did uh yesterday

00:32:23.840 i want you to think back in the last week what has he been doing he's been making your life

00:32:31.320 easier he is intentionally targeting your life okay he no more shoes off uh at the airport

00:32:44.220 the the shower uh nozzles now can you can no longer restrict how much water comes out yesterday

00:32:52.000 the epa rules on gas cans anybody who's used the new gas can you you you if you're even or if you're

00:32:59.300 in dallas and outside you might burst into flames after using the new gas cans he's saying that's

00:33:06.380 ridiculous spout the air out the right way return to the normal gas can okay no president

00:33:14.200 is thinking about gas cans he is because you are most likely in a million different ways he's going

00:33:23.100 to target you and make your life easier or better because it gives you time notice how he's talking

00:33:29.460 now about the fed he's not talking about uh and this is true because it goes right to the economy

00:33:35.680 he's not talking about numbers and everything else and you know our economy and it's going to help

00:33:40.780 our deficit he'll mention that but what is he doing now he's saying people can't afford to buy

00:33:47.320 a new house so he needs to lower the interest rates by three points that will make the housing market

00:33:58.000 explode whether you agree with that or not is a different thing but that's what he's saying now

00:34:03.320 the average person and you know what if he doesn't do it then i'm going to get rid of the uh tax when

00:34:10.660 you sell your house if you've made any money on that house no gains no capital gains on houses you know

00:34:17.760 if you have you know an income under x he's going right for the person who is struggling again

00:34:24.480 you can agree or disagree with what he's doing but that's why he works you're listening to the best

00:34:32.620 of glenn beck need a little more check out the full show podcasts anywhere you download podcasts

00:34:37.700 all right um we had jessica bates on and she wanted to be a foster mom for two children after her husband

00:34:48.720 died in a car crash she's a single mom to five biological children she was on because the state

00:34:56.540 stopped her from being a foster mom here's what she told me yeah so i felt like god had put it on my

00:35:03.460 heart to look into adoption and went ahead and got in touch with the department of human services

00:35:10.440 and after finishing their resource and adoptive families training i let them know that some of their

00:35:18.660 things that they teach about sexual orientation and gender identity you have to support their

00:35:27.160 views and you have to would have to take a child for cross-sex hormone injections or possibly post

00:35:34.560 pride flags or lgbtq plus things on your lawn you have to support and i let them know my my faith

00:35:41.900 convictions i could not do that and they ended up denying my application to adopt

00:35:47.380 and did they come out and say that um there was a phone call where they basically said we're going

00:35:55.520 to put you on hold if you change your mind we can put your application back into circulation

00:36:00.760 um but we're going to put you on hold for now and then about two months later they did officially

00:36:07.500 deny me with the letter

00:36:09.040 so here's what happened she's going to be able to begin the adoption process and continue

00:36:16.960 uh her lawsuit against the state of oregon because the ninth circuit court of appeals ruled in favor

00:36:23.100 of her yesterday it upholds free speech and the free exercise of religion for christian families

00:36:31.600 hoping to foster or adopt and open their home to children in need

00:36:37.600 the loser here is what a surprise oregon

00:36:42.280 this is a big victory now i'm sure oregon's not done it'll go to the supreme court but

00:36:48.480 i mean i don't think jackson brown is really going to have you know her saying her saying that what

00:36:53.940 you're talking about katanji brown jackson yeah whatever uh jackson brown is uh you know she's

00:37:01.400 she's not going to convince anybody right if she's saying maybe maybe jackson brown could you know

00:37:08.460 convince a few people but uh she's not the sharpest knife in the drawer if you know what i mean uh so

00:37:14.460 that's good news now i got a little distracted on this story because we were playing this and i just

00:37:20.180 i saw me and i'm like oh my gosh i was elvis i could have been dead on the bathroom floor i

00:37:26.660 wow this is my fat days i mean like really fat days wow did i not look like a man who's ready to die

00:37:35.660 in that you look you look like a man who's pleading to die i might have been i might have been you look

00:37:43.400 at that you're like that guy's gonna be dead soon wow whatever topic uh we were talking about it

00:37:51.280 seemingly had to be negative just because of the vibe of the of the video yeah right like it was

00:37:56.840 just your appearance indicated we couldn't be positive about a topic the appearance really kind

00:38:02.900 of was like more important than that whole christian thing you know you know what i mean uh okay look

00:38:09.640 it's been a bad week uh it's been a bad week for a lot of people who are gen xers uh because

00:38:15.660 pop culture of the 80s uh malcolm jamal warner theo huxtable drowned in his swimming pool in costa

00:38:24.820 rica he was 54 i don't think it was a swimming pool though he was in the was in the ocean wasn't

00:38:29.140 he dragged out to sea oh yeah you're right you're right you're right um he was terrible god what a

00:38:33.440 terrible story he he actually did a lot of other things too he wasn't just like you know a lot of

00:38:38.740 these guys they're child stars they never do anything 10 things 10 yeah i'd have to go to

00:38:44.680 his i'd have to say a lot of other things he has done actually i can't name 10 name one um detroiters

00:38:50.060 which was a great show he was on i mean he was a huge role in it but he was really funny in that show

00:38:54.900 um there's a bunch of different stuff he did but like he actually built a pretty decent career and

00:38:59.780 kept it going which is not easy to do no it's not yeah no a child star yeah almost impossible and to

00:39:06.000 stay normal yeah it's such a weird legacy too because the show i don't know if you've noticed

00:39:11.180 this uh or maybe we're aware but uh the the guy who's whose name is on the title the show uh turned

00:39:18.380 out to be a rapist so it's just uh it did pose a problem for me when i was raising my kids on the

00:39:25.540 cosby show and uh and uh you know then he went to trial and we were only a quarter of a way into

00:39:34.580 the what 10 year run yeah and uh tanya and i were like should we stop watching this and i'm like

00:39:41.340 nah just go for it it's like santa they'll find out in the end yeah

00:39:46.980 wait a minute santa's a rapist no it's a different story um it's a much darker uh story

00:39:56.180 they keep releasing these like uh there's these like um ip that winds up you know going into public

00:40:01.920 domain like they're doing these horror movies of like winnie the pooh and popeye right the santa

00:40:07.320 one don't look too don't look too deeply yeah it's it actually is a really dark story but we're not

00:40:12.600 going to go there anyway um but the because i keep wanting to for some reason it keeps popping

00:40:18.560 into my head to show um my kids the uh cosby uh stand-up special i think it was called fatherhood

00:40:26.940 do you remember this yeah it was one of his most famous ones i watched it i mean it had to be a

00:40:31.980 thousand times when i was i think it was called fatherhood um and uh did you did you have your

00:40:38.320 kids watch the cosby show no really because of that i mean it's it's it was so good yes he turns

00:40:45.300 out to be a rapist but it was so good the values in it were so good yeah i didn't i i i didn't i

00:40:54.480 think it was gosh what the heck was it anyway i mean he also had amazing and it was like somewhat

00:40:58.540 family friend friendly that i remember i feel like i need to go back and watch it because you never know

00:41:02.480 from those days plus it was you know a guy who was accused of of rape later on so you want to want

00:41:07.200 to make sure you're not seeing any coded messages as well uh but like i don't know i i have stayed

00:41:12.620 away from it just because i'm like i don't know that i necessarily want to there's nothing like it

00:41:18.120 though there's really nothing name the shows that were that solid for kids of all color

00:41:27.320 families name the show well i don't know it makes me feel almost like hey you know let me show you

00:41:37.080 this wonderful sermon given by a pastor who later was involved in a scandal right like i but he wasn't

00:41:43.680 later it was happening during the filming of that show so it's much worse than what i'm saying i'm just

00:41:49.020 saying it's not later in fact it was happening for like two decades before he even did the show

00:41:57.000 he was doing this stuff back in the 60s so there is you know that's much worse i feel like there has

00:42:06.220 you don't want to teach your kids you can be a really horrible human being rapist but if nobody

00:42:12.240 finds out you could also make it in america you don't want to teach your kids that lesson

00:42:16.440 because i i do feel like there is a thing that uh develops this happens i think a lot with people

00:42:23.680 unfortunately with faith where like if they go to a church and then that pastor winds up being a

00:42:28.240 dirt bag which does happen um they wind up being shaken out of their faith which by the way shouldn't

00:42:33.880 occur no because you're putting your faith in man that that's the thing i like that's this how i get

00:42:38.920 around it in my head is i'm not going to put my faith in man i'm not going to put my faith in a

00:42:45.300 preacher if the preacher is saying things and he's doing something uh i really don't like that

00:42:50.680 i don't like that uh but as long as he's gone you know okay we caught him he's gone great i'm fine

00:42:58.580 i'm fine i i didn't believe in this church or this faith because of man i believe in it because it was

00:43:05.280 a place to learn truth and people are all flawed same thing with the cosby show what he was teaching

00:43:11.860 there was truth about families he wasn't living it but i'm not watching it i'm not watching it because

00:43:20.320 he was truth yeah right and that's by the way the same way you should think about your church yes

00:43:25.060 really important to think about that way uh by the way otherwise you'll leave every church you're ever

00:43:29.560 in oh well yeah hope well yeah it's not you'll find something that somebody is doing that you'll

00:43:36.020 be like i can't believe that yeah it's it sets up for an impossible standard it sets up a godly

00:43:41.280 standard on man yes an unfair standard for man unfair they cannot live up to yeah and also let

00:43:47.520 yourself justify all sorts of things oh gosh well i mean obviously i've been let down by this church

00:43:52.900 so therefore hookers and blow like that's it it's the hunter biden policy no that's not the way to

00:43:59.360 look no it's not the way to look that's what happens if you stay at a church where he's doing

00:44:03.940 hookers and blow and everybody's like i don't care give me another sermon right you know then that

00:44:10.200 then that might lead that might to trouble by the way bill cosby himself was the one i was thinking of

00:44:14.980 not fatherhood himself um which was a great special and i remember being so entertaining

00:44:19.920 it was about dads and kids and i loved it and like he was hysterical yeah i mean it's probably

00:44:25.940 hysterical he shouldn't i mean the work is the work right yeah i mean lots of actors in movies were did

00:44:32.280 terrible things later on but i mean it's something about like that relationship you have with the

00:44:37.000 stand-up in a different obviously different than than a pastor but like it is a sort of

00:44:40.900 you know there's an intimate relationship you have with a one-on-one relationship i mean they

00:44:45.740 say the same thing about radio hosts and i want to bring up intimacy with your favorite radio host

00:44:50.160 that might be overweight if we show that picture again for 2023 quickly uh of glenn in 2023 i don't

00:44:57.040 think we need to show it again remember who you work for you in the control room remember who signs

00:45:01.580 your checks crap oh yes they think i signed their checks oh i'll find out who put that up i will uh

00:45:10.600 also um you know i mentioned that uh theo huxtable died uh also aussie osborne passed away this week

00:45:18.920 and uh yesterday hulk hogan that's rough and both hulk hogan particularly hulk i mean cosby

00:45:26.780 had a way of giving others drugs hulk and and aussie had their own relationships with those

00:45:34.240 substances and uh damaging ones it's amazing i mean honestly wow i'm noticing that if you do drugs

00:45:39.580 you become successful in america that's what you got out of this conversation i'm beginning to think

00:45:44.880 so with just these three yes maybe no it's i i would argue it maybe destroyed all of their lives

00:45:52.000 not not no i'm talking about bill cosby not malcolm jamal warner who's yeah who's the third person

00:45:57.400 here uh but uh yeah no i think drugs a negative yeah a negative influence on many people's lives

00:46:04.160 glenn you don't want to you think drugs affected aussie osborne in any way yeah you know yeah i noticed

00:46:12.400 a slight i you know i'm a i'm a i'm a pretty quick study of the human character and notice a little

00:46:20.240 bit of an influence uh on aussie over his life and maybe how maybe a little how it turned out a lot

00:46:26.740 of uh a lot of interesting moments in that life and hulk hogan as well like i mean you know even if

00:46:31.900 you just look at like this the steroid type of stuff like that that affected those guys the fact

00:46:35.720 that you make it to your 70s after living that life is actually impressive you know what i think it

00:46:41.020 is yeah i mean what was theo huxtable doing exercising he was swimming he lived a clean life

00:46:48.900 that we know of he was swimming guys at 54 these guys and they pump poison in their body they make

00:46:55.400 it into their 70s it does feel a little bit unfair doesn't it i mean come on i love hulk you know

00:47:03.000 i wasn't a big fan of aussie's music i was never a big fan but still there's something charming

00:47:08.300 about him and can i bring it was the tv show it was strangely charming can i bring up one uh extra

00:47:13.440 thing that is a personal jihad of mine you know we have these things where you just they stick in

00:47:19.240 your craw yeah over a long period of time all right we've done a lot of good work in america here

00:47:24.200 of uh pushing back against cancel culture recently a lot of people who were wrongly canceled and then

00:47:30.960 we're kind of like you know uh i don't know freed from that we've kind of come back and say no that

00:47:35.940 person should have been canceled we did a lot of that sharon osborne is one we need to revisit
