The Glenn Beck Program - Best Of The Program ｜ 7⧸5⧸21

00:00:00.000 No matter how much they try it, oh, no matter how much they try to drive that wedge between

00:00:22.600 us and divide us, tear us apart as a nation, ha ha ha, it's not working.

00:00:27.440 That's some of the good news, and I've got some proof for that.

00:00:33.180 I'll explain coming up.

00:00:34.280 Justin Barkley in for Glenn Beck today on the Glenn Beck program.

00:00:36.620 Do you remember this commercial from the 70s?

00:00:38.500 What's your favorite sport?

00:00:39.780 Baseball.

00:00:40.300 Sandwich.

00:00:40.740 Hot dog.

00:00:41.160 Five.

00:00:41.580 Apple.

00:00:42.220 And what's your favorite car, America?

00:00:44.380 Chevrolet.

00:00:45.040 Let me see, that's baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet, huh?

00:00:48.220 Right.

00:00:48.800 Well, you sure sound like America to me.

00:00:50.680 We are.

00:00:51.480 Well, then you better tell me again, because I just might forget.

00:00:54.720 We love baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet.

00:00:59.380 Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet.

00:01:02.460 Now, I know it's superficial, the baseball, the hot dogs, the apple pie, yeah, even the

00:01:07.500 Chevrolet.

00:01:09.880 But there's a little bit of nostalgia to that.

00:01:12.440 Just watching that, thinking about all those things were uniting.

00:01:21.020 All of those things were pieces of the culture that we could gather around, that we could

00:01:26.420 somehow find a way to rally around.

00:01:29.360 Because it doesn't matter, you know, who you identify as.

00:01:37.400 It doesn't matter what you think you are today.

00:01:42.180 It doesn't matter the color of your skin or what church you go to.

00:01:46.580 But we could all rally around our favorite baseball team watching America's pastime.

00:01:55.440 We could all enjoy some sort of grilled product, I would think.

00:02:02.140 If it's not a hot dog, you'd still throw some sort of meat on the grill.

00:02:07.900 Nowadays, we can't even do that.

00:02:09.660 It's got to be maybe a plant-based meat.

00:02:11.440 Let's throw a plant-based meat on the barbecue. 0.74

00:02:13.460 It doesn't have the same ring to it, does it?

00:02:19.420 But, you know, even things like that are uniquely designed to divide us these days.

00:02:28.160 Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet.

00:02:34.820 Even in the commercials.

00:02:37.500 Even in the advertising.

00:02:39.000 Madison Avenue and the rest of them spent millions.

00:02:43.460 Putting all that together.

00:02:45.400 To sell some cars.

00:02:47.140 How do they sell cars now?

00:02:48.960 Oh, boy.

00:02:50.540 You and I both know.

00:02:52.080 Look at the commercials.

00:02:53.140 Now, here's why I think they're not successful.

00:02:58.700 And this is where I think the good news is.

00:03:00.360 I started this show off by saying, boy, I heard there was a shortage of fireworks this year.

00:03:09.660 Just like the other shortages.

00:03:11.040 Now, some of these shortages are real and some of them, I think, are a little artificial.

00:03:16.000 But we have issues in the supply chain for all kinds of reasons.

00:03:18.920 It's true.

00:03:19.420 Not just the inflation.

00:03:20.600 But, of course, we've got the issues with trying to even find folks to work.

00:03:25.180 A lot of them in many states, states like mine, blue states like Michigan, where they're being paid to sit at home.

00:03:33.240 Of course, they're not going to go back to work.

00:03:34.660 Why would you do that?

00:03:35.600 Summertime?

00:03:36.040 Go back to work now?

00:03:37.140 No.

00:03:37.820 And, of course, when the kids are back in school, yeah, I don't know if I could do that either.

00:03:41.580 If I'm still being paid, I'd probably need to stay home.

00:03:45.560 Because the kids are going to need help with their homework.

00:03:47.480 You get the point.

00:03:48.240 But, you know, there are issues.

00:03:53.060 While there are issues, I don't know that the fireworks were real or not.

00:03:55.640 Because I'll tell you last night, I heard more.

00:03:58.260 And I certainly heard plenty on Saturday.

00:04:00.480 But I heard more last night than I heard Saturday.

00:04:03.580 And if I recall, last year was very similar.

00:04:09.000 Because we were told last year to stay home and to hunker down and to shelter in place and to not leave.

00:04:15.160 Oh, my goodness.

00:04:16.200 By the way, over the weekend, Biden tweeted, or somebody tweeted for him.

00:04:21.020 Because, thank God, you went from a president who owned Twitter to a president who doesn't even know what a Twitter is.

00:04:26.920 I mean, this guy doesn't.

00:04:28.940 I don't think he's putting his own sentences together, let alone tweeting them on Twitter on the toilet at 4 a.m.

00:04:37.140 What I'm saying is, I don't know what Biden's doing.

00:04:41.880 And I don't think he does even.

00:04:43.060 But yesterday, or over the weekend, it was tweeted on his account.

00:04:47.920 Let's put it that way.

00:04:50.060 That the most patriotic thing that we can do as Americans is to go get the jab, if we haven't already done that.

00:04:58.020 And boy, oh boy, wouldn't you know it?

00:04:59.920 There's another thing that's being used right now to divide us.

00:05:03.340 Last year, they used all kinds of interesting tactics.

00:05:07.160 Our governor here in Michigan, she used masks to divide us. 0.76

00:05:12.800 And as I started to roll the language out, I said, you know, got to be careful with this. 1.00

00:05:17.620 Early on in the beginning, I caught that.

00:05:22.080 I said, you got to be, because she was telling people to go out and confront each other.

00:05:27.900 Okay, so which is it?

00:05:29.360 Are we supposed to stay six feet away from each other?

00:05:32.260 Are we supposed to go up to each other in our personal space and confront each other?

00:05:36.900 She told people to confront each other, and people died because of it.

00:05:44.900 I think there were a couple people shot at a dollar store of an argument over masks.

00:05:48.440 And in fact, I think one man stabbed some people waiting in line at an ice cream shop.

00:06:00.040 While another one, I think that man eventually fled.

00:06:04.920 Police caught up with him and shot and killed him.

00:06:08.600 People died because of this division.

00:06:10.380 So as I mentioned it, and I do believe it's good news, last night, I didn't see or hear any issues with division.

00:06:24.660 Not this weekend.

00:06:25.900 I saw a country more united, I think, than almost any time in the nation's history.

00:06:32.420 Because the truth is, every single one of us, I think, want very much, at least pretty similar,

00:06:40.600 very much the same thing.

00:06:44.080 We want to come together with our family.

00:06:46.620 We want to celebrate holidays like the Fourth of July.

00:06:50.920 But slowly, oh and surely, just like you would turn the Titanic,

00:06:56.580 they are trying to turn this nation.

00:07:00.980 And I think it's something that we should be aware of.

00:07:05.020 Just like everything else.

00:07:07.540 I think it's wise.

00:07:09.080 It's prudent to know what's going on.

00:07:15.860 But I think you ought to know the good news, too.

00:07:18.340 And the good news is, they haven't turned all of us.

00:07:21.940 And there were millions last night that weren't.

00:07:25.740 They weren't turned.

00:07:26.640 There were millions over the weekend.

00:07:32.100 They weren't turned.

00:07:32.840 So when I play this audio from this commercial, the baseball, the apple pie, you know.

00:07:39.620 Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet.

00:07:43.240 That's baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet.

00:07:46.680 That's a little slice of Americana right there from the 70s.

00:07:53.700 I play that commercial, and I think about the stark contrast and the difference between the commercials we see on television now.

00:08:01.760 And I'm telling you, it's my gut instinct.

00:08:06.080 I just know for a fact.

00:08:07.300 And I think you would probably feel the same way.

00:08:10.740 If we saw those kind of commercials today, those products would fly off the shelves.

00:08:18.100 In fact, we do see those type of advertisements and commercials for certain products, certain niche industries.

00:08:28.280 Certainly things like MyPillow.

00:08:32.780 You know the advertisers, because they advertise right here on this program, and they support these programs.

00:08:44.840 But what if the car manufacturers and all the other companies out there, what if instead of advertising how woke they are to us

00:08:54.660 and signaling how virtuous they are to us in every single commercial,

00:08:59.220 and really, in a sense, trying to drive us apart?

00:09:04.100 What if they, I don't know, what if they tried to wrap everybody up in their arms and unite us together,

00:09:12.260 maybe under that flag?

00:09:18.280 I tell you, I think they would see a stunning return to those products in a response,

00:09:28.860 because of the fact that it would just resonate with so many different Americans.

00:09:33.840 These things are deeply embedded.

00:09:35.560 They're ingrained in who we are.

00:09:38.260 And although they're trying to turn us,

00:09:42.120 they're not winning.

00:09:45.240 They

00:09:45.720 aren't winning.

00:09:49.780 Even though the New York Times

00:09:55.460 is now suggesting

00:10:00.120 that the flag

00:10:04.820 itself

00:10:06.040 is problematic.

00:10:08.520 The flag itself.

00:10:10.740 They're getting hit back.

00:10:14.340 Today, flying the American flag,

00:10:16.340 this is from the Times,

00:10:17.160 from the back of a pickup truck

00:10:19.220 or even a lawn

00:10:20.560 is increasingly seen

00:10:22.640 as a clue,

00:10:24.260 albeit

00:10:24.620 an imperfect one,

00:10:27.000 to a person's political affiliation

00:10:29.360 in a deeply divided nation.

00:10:31.840 You know,

00:10:32.500 I often said,

00:10:33.500 like,

00:10:35.780 I don't know,

00:10:36.980 it's pretty clear.

00:10:37.860 If you

00:10:38.600 have a flag outside your house,

00:10:40.460 I probably know who you voted for.

00:10:42.080 You don't need

00:10:42.840 a lawn sign.

00:10:44.800 I probably know

00:10:46.500 how you voted,

00:10:47.660 at least.

00:10:50.400 Although they're

00:10:52.000 drawing the connection

00:10:53.740 into a

00:10:54.880 disturbingly

00:10:56.360 divisive

00:10:58.620 place.

00:11:02.160 They say

00:11:03.300 a person's political affiliation

00:11:05.020 in a deeply divided nation

00:11:06.940 can't be

00:11:09.240 ascertained by that flag.

00:11:11.460 They say

00:11:12.480 deeply divided nation,

00:11:13.820 but see,

00:11:14.500 I see it differently.

00:11:18.340 We keep being told

00:11:19.500 that we're deeply divided.

00:11:23.920 We keep being told

00:11:25.220 that we're the problem.

00:11:29.340 I just don't think

00:11:30.260 that's the case.

00:11:32.560 I think

00:11:33.420 why they really

00:11:34.760 don't want us

00:11:35.380 getting together,

00:11:36.060 and they didn't

00:11:36.700 through the last year,

00:11:37.660 but especially

00:11:38.140 for holidays

00:11:39.080 like the 4th of July,

00:11:40.380 is because

00:11:42.080 when you do,

00:11:44.320 you turn off

00:11:45.500 the TV,

00:11:47.360 you step out

00:11:49.600 of your bubble,

00:11:51.340 you join

00:11:53.380 in towns

00:11:55.040 and cities

00:11:56.800 all across this country

00:11:58.000 with your neighbors

00:11:59.760 for fireworks

00:12:02.620 celebrations,

00:12:03.900 big displays,

00:12:05.400 right next to

00:12:06.580 each other.

00:12:07.000 regardless of

00:12:10.820 CDC guidance,

00:12:12.360 standing next

00:12:13.880 to one another,

00:12:15.020 having conversations

00:12:17.460 with a hot dog

00:12:18.200 in one hand

00:12:18.880 and a cold drink

00:12:20.540 in the other,

00:12:22.160 talking to your neighbors,

00:12:27.680 your friends,

00:12:29.680 your relatives,

00:12:30.340 the people

00:12:30.940 who make up

00:12:32.400 this country.

00:12:33.060 they're just

00:12:36.260 other folks

00:12:36.740 like you

00:12:37.140 and me,

00:12:38.380 the millions

00:12:39.680 of us,

00:12:41.340 who just

00:12:43.940 want the same

00:12:44.440 thing,

00:12:45.840 a better life

00:12:47.360 for our children

00:12:48.380 than the one

00:12:49.800 we had

00:12:50.360 before us,

00:12:51.880 the freedom

00:12:52.560 to do so,

00:12:54.400 get government

00:12:55.080 out of all

00:12:55.640 the rest

00:12:55.980 of the stuff

00:12:56.480 that causes 0.52

00:12:57.780 problems,

00:12:58.440 just let

00:13:02.480 me go

00:13:02.720 to work,

00:13:03.720 just let

00:13:04.220 me live

00:13:05.220 my life,

00:13:05.980 just let

00:13:06.280 me enjoy

00:13:07.220 the little

00:13:07.600 bit of

00:13:07.820 free time

00:13:08.220 I have

00:13:08.660 with my

00:13:08.980 family.

00:13:11.900 But we're

00:13:12.600 constantly

00:13:13.100 being pulled

00:13:13.820 into

00:13:14.360 political

00:13:15.180 fights.

00:13:20.440 We're

00:13:20.920 constantly

00:13:21.260 being told

00:13:21.740 that we're

00:13:22.220 the problem,

00:13:23.580 folks.

00:13:26.560 You're not

00:13:27.200 the problem.

00:13:28.440 you're the

00:13:30.020 solution.

00:13:31.260 Back after

00:13:31.920 this.

00:13:35.520 This is

00:13:36.720 the best

00:13:37.320 of the

00:13:37.680 Glenn Beck

00:13:37.980 program.

00:13:41.680 You know,

00:13:42.980 every,

00:13:43.780 every day

00:13:44.620 there is

00:13:46.080 something

00:13:46.520 insane

00:13:47.620 happening

00:13:48.820 in the

00:13:49.320 news.

00:13:50.000 Literally

00:13:50.660 every day.

00:13:52.480 and as

00:13:55.420 those

00:13:55.920 true

00:13:56.880 events

00:13:57.580 take

00:13:58.100 place,

00:13:58.920 I often

00:14:00.240 find the

00:14:00.720 need to

00:14:01.320 check in

00:14:01.940 with a

00:14:03.480 very specific

00:14:04.300 source.

00:14:05.980 It's not

00:14:06.680 the usual

00:14:07.960 go-to

00:14:08.940 that you

00:14:10.820 might think

00:14:11.260 of,

00:14:11.560 you know,

00:14:11.980 not the

00:14:13.060 New York

00:14:13.620 Times,

00:14:14.120 the paper,

00:14:14.700 a record,

00:14:15.340 people like

00:14:15.920 that.

00:14:16.220 No,

00:14:16.480 I actually

00:14:17.160 like to

00:14:18.600 check in

00:14:19.180 when I

00:14:19.720 hear some

00:14:20.620 of the

00:14:21.000 craziest

00:14:21.980 things

00:14:22.500 happening

00:14:22.980 with the

00:14:24.880 Babylon Bee.

00:14:26.160 Now,

00:14:26.300 don't laugh,

00:14:26.800 or actually

00:14:27.360 they may be

00:14:28.120 okay with

00:14:28.560 you doing

00:14:28.920 that,

00:14:29.220 because that's

00:14:30.940 their whole

00:14:31.260 intention.

00:14:32.240 They write

00:14:32.700 satire,

00:14:33.620 and they

00:14:34.400 are deadly

00:14:36.820 serious,

00:14:37.740 and boy,

00:14:38.440 does it sting

00:14:39.060 sometimes.

00:14:39.940 Isn't that

00:14:40.260 what satire's

00:14:40.940 supposed to

00:14:41.360 do?

00:14:41.560 And so

00:14:44.620 I thought

00:14:47.020 to myself,

00:14:48.020 you know,

00:14:48.400 when I

00:14:49.080 heard the

00:14:49.520 story that

00:14:49.900 they were

00:14:50.200 being targeted

00:14:51.020 by big

00:14:53.480 tech,

00:14:54.580 social media

00:14:55.340 censorship,

00:14:56.300 it's just a

00:14:56.860 matter of

00:14:57.200 time.

00:14:58.420 Why are

00:14:59.060 they coming

00:14:59.500 after the

00:14:59.980 Babylon Bee?

00:15:02.660 Because

00:15:03.100 they're

00:15:03.340 effective.

00:15:05.400 And their

00:15:06.000 chief,

00:15:06.840 Seth Dillon,

00:15:07.380 joins us now

00:15:07.960 on the

00:15:08.140 Glenn Beck

00:15:08.460 program.

00:15:09.140 Seth,

00:15:09.440 thanks for

00:15:09.740 being here

00:15:10.020 with us

00:15:10.240 today.

00:15:10.480 Appreciate

00:15:10.760 it.

00:15:12.300 Yeah,

00:15:12.700 thanks for

00:15:13.080 having me

00:15:13.400 on.

00:15:13.600 Glad to

00:15:13.820 be here.

00:15:14.840 So,

00:15:15.400 as I

00:15:16.380 mentioned,

00:15:16.980 I don't

00:15:17.360 think I'm

00:15:17.720 alone on

00:15:18.140 this,

00:15:18.360 but every

00:15:18.720 time I

00:15:18.980 hear something

00:15:19.360 crazy happening

00:15:20.060 in the

00:15:20.300 news,

00:15:20.540 which is

00:15:20.820 every day,

00:15:22.160 there's a

00:15:22.560 headline,

00:15:22.920 there's

00:15:23.060 something that

00:15:23.540 that's a

00:15:23.880 real story.

00:15:24.620 I then

00:15:24.820 got to go

00:15:25.220 find out,

00:15:25.720 okay,

00:15:25.840 how did

00:15:26.140 you guys

00:15:26.460 cover it?

00:15:27.160 Because

00:15:27.520 that,

00:15:28.680 in a lot

00:15:29.060 of ways,

00:15:30.160 it really

00:15:30.780 does.

00:15:31.300 It sort

00:15:31.640 of shows

00:15:32.280 me,

00:15:32.800 like,

00:15:32.940 okay,

00:15:33.500 and this

00:15:33.820 is how

00:15:34.240 I feel.

00:15:35.340 I think

00:15:35.560 a lot of

00:15:36.060 most of

00:15:36.700 us,

00:15:36.880 and I

00:15:37.160 think

00:15:37.300 that's

00:15:37.560 why

00:15:37.940 the

00:15:38.740 popularity

00:15:39.200 of the

00:15:39.480 bee

00:15:39.660 has risen

00:15:40.100 so sharp,

00:15:42.040 but it's

00:15:42.180 because people

00:15:43.240 feel this

00:15:44.020 way and

00:15:44.700 they relate

00:15:45.360 to that

00:15:45.880 humor.

00:15:46.880 There's

00:15:47.280 stinging

00:15:47.720 truth in

00:15:48.420 all of

00:15:49.020 it.

00:15:51.160 Yeah,

00:15:51.360 well,

00:15:51.540 it's a rich

00:15:52.260 environment

00:15:52.720 right now

00:15:53.140 for satire,

00:15:53.880 that's for

00:15:54.480 sure.

00:15:54.780 In some

00:15:55.040 ways,

00:15:55.280 it does

00:15:55.520 make the

00:15:55.860 job

00:15:56.060 harder,

00:15:56.460 though,

00:15:56.680 because

00:15:56.940 satire's

00:15:57.540 project is

00:15:58.140 to exaggerate

00:15:58.860 the truth

00:15:59.240 to make

00:15:59.580 its points.

00:16:00.860 And like

00:16:01.120 you said,

00:16:01.480 when we

00:16:01.680 wake up and

00:16:02.140 we read

00:16:02.420 the news

00:16:02.780 every day,

00:16:03.260 the news

00:16:03.620 is so

00:16:04.140 insane, 0.62

00:16:04.780 so absurd, 0.82

00:16:06.040 it's hard

00:16:06.480 to exaggerate

00:16:08.140 things like

00:16:08.740 reporters

00:16:09.180 standing in

00:16:09.700 front of

00:16:09.920 burning

00:16:10.160 buildings

00:16:10.600 describing

00:16:11.140 the situation

00:16:11.760 as mostly

00:16:12.240 peaceful.

00:16:14.540 It's

00:16:15.060 difficult to

00:16:15.680 satirize.

00:16:17.540 It makes

00:16:18.400 the job

00:16:18.760 challenging,

00:16:19.480 but it's

00:16:19.900 also good

00:16:20.680 to bring

00:16:20.980 some levity

00:16:21.520 and get

00:16:21.860 people laughing

00:16:22.560 but also

00:16:24.880 thinking about

00:16:25.700 these things.

00:16:26.960 How often

00:16:27.560 does it

00:16:28.160 happen?

00:16:28.700 Because I've

00:16:29.100 seen this,

00:16:29.460 it's almost

00:16:29.780 like prophecy,

00:16:30.900 the Babylon

00:16:31.440 Bee prophecy

00:16:32.320 now,

00:16:32.760 where us

00:16:34.040 say like

00:16:34.360 you can't

00:16:34.800 make this

00:16:35.200 stuff up,

00:16:35.760 but apparently

00:16:36.220 you guys

00:16:36.780 did and

00:16:37.260 you did

00:16:37.600 it maybe

00:16:38.340 a little

00:16:38.640 bit in

00:16:38.940 advance and

00:16:40.220 now here's

00:16:41.180 life imitating

00:16:42.760 art right in

00:16:43.400 front of our

00:16:43.800 eyes.

00:16:45.860 Well,

00:16:46.020 yeah,

00:16:46.180 that's the

00:16:46.480 challenge.

00:16:46.900 So,

00:16:47.140 okay,

00:16:47.420 the challenge

00:16:47.800 is to stay

00:16:48.260 a step ahead

00:16:48.780 of reality,

00:16:49.520 right?

00:16:50.460 Because reality

00:16:51.320 is moving at

00:16:52.300 breakneck pace

00:16:53.340 towards insanity.

00:16:55.560 We exaggerate it

00:16:57.000 to make our

00:16:58.120 points and to

00:16:58.720 make our jokes

00:16:59.280 go through and

00:17:00.520 sometimes literally

00:17:01.680 within minutes

00:17:02.780 or hours,

00:17:04.040 something that

00:17:05.120 we've written

00:17:05.600 that was satirical

00:17:06.400 at the time we

00:17:06.920 wrote it comes

00:17:07.640 out in a real

00:17:08.160 headline.

00:17:08.780 So that's

00:17:09.740 happening pretty

00:17:10.260 frequently.

00:17:10.760 It doesn't

00:17:10.960 happen every

00:17:11.420 day,

00:17:12.220 but usually

00:17:13.320 every couple

00:17:13.960 of weeks,

00:17:14.340 there's something

00:17:14.900 that we

00:17:15.240 published either

00:17:16.680 very recently

00:17:17.420 or even sometimes

00:17:18.260 like one or two

00:17:18.940 years ago that

00:17:19.600 ends up coming

00:17:20.180 true.

00:17:21.440 Mark it down as

00:17:22.240 a fulfilled

00:17:22.620 prophecy,

00:17:23.280 which is,

00:17:23.840 you know,

00:17:24.180 it's comical on

00:17:25.300 the one hand,

00:17:25.800 but it's also

00:17:26.460 kind of depressing

00:17:27.700 on the other.

00:17:28.180 what is like,

00:17:30.100 if you think

00:17:30.520 back to this,

00:17:32.180 Seth Dillon is

00:17:32.920 on with us now

00:17:33.580 from Babylon

00:17:34.520 B.

00:17:35.600 If you have to

00:17:36.240 think back to

00:17:36.980 maybe the first

00:17:38.180 one that you

00:17:39.560 remember,

00:17:40.140 or maybe the

00:17:40.600 one that makes

00:17:41.100 the biggest

00:17:41.440 impact on you,

00:17:42.160 it was a story

00:17:42.760 that you guys

00:17:43.240 wrote or something

00:17:43.780 that you put

00:17:44.260 together and

00:17:44.860 then it just,

00:17:46.720 you thought this

00:17:47.460 was wild,

00:17:48.500 maybe it'll never

00:17:49.120 happen,

00:17:49.600 but then there

00:17:50.560 it was,

00:17:52.120 real life.

00:17:52.740 well,

00:17:54.940 I mean,

00:17:55.240 there's a,

00:17:55.660 there's a million

00:17:56.220 examples.

00:17:56.940 I mean,

00:17:57.060 some recent ones,

00:17:57.820 like even some

00:17:58.300 lighthearted ones,

00:17:59.060 like we made a

00:17:59.640 joke back in the

00:18:01.420 middle of the

00:18:01.880 pandemic when

00:18:02.540 things were bad

00:18:03.160 last year about

00:18:04.800 how,

00:18:05.380 you know,

00:18:06.760 there were

00:18:07.280 increased sales

00:18:08.300 of shirts,

00:18:09.980 but not pants

00:18:10.800 because everyone

00:18:11.380 was working from

00:18:12.080 home and we

00:18:12.580 showed a picture

00:18:13.080 of a guy sitting

00:18:13.660 there in his

00:18:14.020 boxers.

00:18:15.120 And then the

00:18:15.700 very next day,

00:18:16.700 Yahoo Finance

00:18:17.540 published a story

00:18:18.500 about how Walmart

00:18:19.760 was seeing increased

00:18:20.620 sales of tops,

00:18:21.480 but not bottoms.

00:18:22.240 Like almost to a

00:18:24.000 word,

00:18:24.380 like exactly the

00:18:25.100 headline that we

00:18:25.700 had joked about

00:18:26.500 was actually true.

00:18:28.480 But there's other

00:18:29.240 ones too,

00:18:29.760 where,

00:18:29.920 you know,

00:18:30.120 it just shows

00:18:30.720 that we're right

00:18:31.240 on,

00:18:31.600 we're right on

00:18:32.460 with our,

00:18:32.880 with our

00:18:33.240 criticism of,

00:18:34.720 you know,

00:18:34.860 the mainstream

00:18:35.640 or legacy media

00:18:36.720 and how,

00:18:37.200 and how they,

00:18:38.280 you know,

00:18:38.680 they just try to

00:18:39.320 distort things and

00:18:40.100 cover things from

00:18:40.720 their own narrative.

00:18:41.340 We did,

00:18:41.820 we did a story on

00:18:42.760 how President

00:18:44.460 Trump during the

00:18:45.300 Abraham Accords

00:18:46.700 was ignoring

00:18:48.700 COVID protocols.

00:18:50.540 And that's what,

00:18:51.080 well,

00:18:51.160 that was how CNN

00:18:51.880 was going to

00:18:52.320 cover it,

00:18:52.660 right?

00:18:53.060 Trump ignores

00:18:53.740 COVID protocols

00:18:55.300 and shakes hands

00:18:56.480 with foreign

00:18:57.280 leaders.

00:18:58.440 And then three

00:18:59.240 hours later,

00:19:00.020 CNN publishes

00:19:00.880 a headline where

00:19:01.520 that was what

00:19:02.180 they covered.

00:19:02.840 It wasn't the

00:19:03.280 monumental occasion

00:19:04.680 that was happening

00:19:05.300 on your screen.

00:19:06.020 It was Trump

00:19:06.880 disregards COVID

00:19:07.940 protocols and,

00:19:08.840 and,

00:19:09.360 and disregards

00:19:10.260 distancing at the

00:19:11.100 Abraham Accords.

00:19:11.840 It's like,

00:19:12.180 that's not the story

00:19:13.220 here.

00:19:13.640 That's not the story.

00:19:14.960 But that kind of

00:19:15.660 stuff happens all

00:19:16.760 the time.

00:19:17.140 I think maybe

00:19:17.620 one of the most

00:19:18.120 egregious was

00:19:18.780 when we,

00:19:19.180 we made a joke

00:19:20.060 about how

00:19:20.440 Black Lives Matter

00:19:21.140 had been nominated

00:19:21.880 for the Nobel Peace

00:19:22.720 Prize,

00:19:23.140 and then it

00:19:23.460 actually happened.

00:19:25.500 Incredible moments

00:19:27.340 in the history

00:19:28.660 of the Babylon Bee.

00:19:30.100 And,

00:19:30.260 Seth,

00:19:31.580 I just realized

00:19:32.360 you guys had

00:19:33.040 just reached

00:19:34.600 a big milestone

00:19:35.660 on Twitter,

00:19:36.280 too.

00:19:36.500 You now have

00:19:36.920 a million

00:19:37.620 followers,

00:19:38.360 followers there.

00:19:39.880 The popularity

00:19:40.940 growing by

00:19:42.620 leaps and bounds,

00:19:43.360 and I think

00:19:44.000 it's because

00:19:44.500 you're effective.

00:19:45.240 Matter of fact,

00:19:46.520 that's probably

00:19:47.240 why you guys

00:19:47.880 are under attack.

00:19:48.860 What's the latest

00:19:49.480 in what have you

00:19:50.180 found with big

00:19:51.580 tech and censorship

00:19:52.320 right now?

00:19:54.580 Yeah,

00:19:55.020 so that is a big

00:19:55.760 milestone.

00:19:56.320 A million followers

00:19:56.840 on Twitter.

00:19:57.360 We just recently

00:19:57.860 had a million

00:19:58.460 on Instagram,

00:19:59.360 too.

00:20:00.040 And a lot of

00:20:00.580 people will point

00:20:01.080 to that and say,

00:20:01.700 what's censorship?

00:20:02.420 What are you

00:20:02.640 talking about?

00:20:03.100 Look at you,

00:20:03.560 you've got a huge

00:20:03.940 following,

00:20:04.500 you know,

00:20:04.740 people are,

00:20:05.420 people are following

00:20:06.300 you in droves.

00:20:06.900 But,

00:20:07.320 but our success

00:20:08.540 on those platforms

00:20:09.320 is despite the fact

00:20:11.180 that we're facing

00:20:12.100 huge setbacks

00:20:13.100 from,

00:20:13.560 you know,

00:20:14.140 attacks from the

00:20:14.700 media and suspensions.

00:20:16.120 Like our Twitter

00:20:16.480 page has been

00:20:17.020 suspended.

00:20:17.580 Our Facebook page

00:20:18.340 has been,

00:20:19.100 our posts have

00:20:19.720 been pulled

00:20:20.080 and we've been

00:20:20.700 demonetized several

00:20:21.680 times.

00:20:22.140 We've been

00:20:22.400 threatened with

00:20:22.960 being deplatformed

00:20:23.760 there.

00:20:24.820 MailChimp suspended

00:20:25.700 us recently and

00:20:26.440 then apologized

00:20:26.920 and turned us

00:20:27.500 back on.

00:20:28.560 But there's this,

00:20:29.360 there's been this

00:20:29.860 like coordinated

00:20:30.500 effort between big

00:20:31.520 tech and the media

00:20:32.340 in the last couple

00:20:33.180 of years as,

00:20:34.720 as the crackdown

00:20:35.420 on fake news

00:20:36.280 was really happening

00:20:37.140 and they were

00:20:37.420 trying to stop

00:20:38.000 the spread of

00:20:38.540 misinformation.

00:20:39.920 You started

00:20:40.620 seeing our posts

00:20:41.300 getting fact-checked

00:20:42.160 all the time.

00:20:43.100 And rated

00:20:44.420 false.

00:20:45.720 And then,

00:20:46.400 and then we were

00:20:46.840 getting threatened

00:20:47.400 with being deplatformed

00:20:48.420 if we continued

00:20:49.000 sharing false

00:20:49.660 information.

00:20:50.160 And we had to,

00:20:50.880 you know,

00:20:51.240 defend ourselves

00:20:51.820 and say,

00:20:52.160 this is not fake

00:20:52.940 news.

00:20:53.280 This is,

00:20:53.820 well,

00:20:54.120 it is fake news,

00:20:54.940 but it's not fake

00:20:56.000 news intended to

00:20:56.720 mislead.

00:20:57.200 It's fake news

00:20:57.720 intended to entertain.

00:20:58.660 This is satire.

00:20:59.300 So we've been

00:21:00.960 constantly in this

00:21:02.080 battle to assert

00:21:03.180 our right to be

00:21:03.900 on these platforms

00:21:04.740 and the media,

00:21:06.600 what's really

00:21:07.060 interesting with the

00:21:07.660 media is that

00:21:08.860 they've been trying

00:21:09.560 to generate this

00:21:10.780 narrative where

00:21:11.660 we're not really

00:21:12.680 satire,

00:21:13.280 we're pretending

00:21:13.980 to be satire

00:21:14.920 to just get around

00:21:15.680 Facebook's rules

00:21:16.540 against the spread

00:21:17.760 of misinformation.

00:21:18.840 So that's what,

00:21:19.460 that's what happened

00:21:20.020 with the New York

00:21:20.460 Times recently where

00:21:21.280 they called us a

00:21:21.840 far-right

00:21:22.200 misinformation

00:21:22.600 site that

00:21:23.800 traffics in

00:21:24.500 misinformation.

00:21:25.920 And that kind

00:21:26.600 of stuff,

00:21:27.020 you know,

00:21:27.220 like on the one

00:21:28.040 hand,

00:21:28.320 you know,

00:21:28.460 we want to,

00:21:28.880 we want to joke

00:21:29.460 about that and

00:21:30.060 like,

00:21:30.340 and make fun

00:21:30.840 of them for

00:21:31.320 being,

00:21:31.800 you know,

00:21:33.420 for,

00:21:34.080 for,

00:21:34.540 for,

00:21:34.940 you know,

00:21:35.360 misrepresenting

00:21:36.060 us that way

00:21:36.760 and,

00:21:37.000 and,

00:21:37.360 and trying to

00:21:37.920 make people think

00:21:38.540 that there's

00:21:38.860 something malicious

00:21:39.440 about our,

00:21:40.000 our satire.

00:21:40.980 But on the other

00:21:41.640 hand,

00:21:41.780 we got to take

00:21:42.220 it really seriously

00:21:42.980 because next thing

00:21:43.820 you know,

00:21:44.140 we are going to

00:21:44.680 get the boot

00:21:45.140 from these social

00:21:45.700 media platforms

00:21:46.440 on the basis

00:21:47.240 of lies like that.

00:21:48.660 It's in fact,

00:21:49.420 New York Times

00:21:50.120 that's,

00:21:50.480 that's spreading

00:21:51.000 misinformation

00:21:51.400 about us,

00:21:52.460 not the other

00:21:53.140 way around.

00:21:53.760 So,

00:21:54.400 it's been an

00:21:55.100 ongoing battle,

00:21:55.900 but we've had

00:21:56.260 some successes

00:21:56.900 and we continue

00:21:57.520 to fight back

00:21:58.140 not taking any

00:21:58.820 of it lined

00:21:59.200 out.

00:21:59.840 What do you

00:22:00.480 make about

00:22:01.080 this latest

00:22:01.840 craziness

00:22:02.860 about,

00:22:04.020 and I've been

00:22:04.480 watching this

00:22:04.980 over the last

00:22:05.500 couple of days

00:22:05.880 with Facebook

00:22:06.520 and these

00:22:07.680 warnings about

00:22:08.400 you may have

00:22:08.860 come in contact

00:22:09.620 with extremist

00:22:10.460 content and

00:22:11.360 or you in fact

00:22:12.560 may be an

00:22:13.380 extremist.

00:22:14.020 It's almost

00:22:14.300 like,

00:22:14.980 you know,

00:22:15.360 do you have

00:22:16.260 an American flag

00:22:17.080 flying outside

00:22:17.740 of your house?

00:22:18.460 Do you,

00:22:19.000 do you have a

00:22:20.060 Bible? 0.83

00:22:20.340 Did you attend

00:22:21.040 church yesterday?

00:22:21.920 You may be an

00:22:22.660 extremist.

00:22:23.480 Right.

00:22:23.640 What,

00:22:23.900 what,

00:22:24.560 what do you

00:22:25.080 make about,

00:22:25.620 I mean,

00:22:25.940 it's so crazy

00:22:27.540 that this is

00:22:28.080 the world we

00:22:28.580 live in.

00:22:28.900 We're starting

00:22:29.280 to see Facebook

00:22:30.080 doing something

00:22:30.700 like this.

00:22:31.220 It's nuts.

00:22:32.840 Yeah,

00:22:33.320 it feels very

00:22:33.860 Orwellian,

00:22:34.500 doesn't it?

00:22:35.440 And again,

00:22:36.140 that's a rich,

00:22:36.740 rich atmosphere

00:22:37.420 for satire.

00:22:38.200 We're making

00:22:38.700 plenty of jokes

00:22:39.320 about this.

00:22:39.820 I'm personally

00:22:40.520 concerned because

00:22:41.500 I have not

00:22:42.280 been yet warned

00:22:43.520 that I might be

00:22:44.260 an extremist

00:22:44.820 or have affiliation

00:22:45.540 with extremists.

00:22:47.120 You know,

00:22:47.680 I think,

00:22:48.080 I think I should

00:22:48.640 have that warning

00:22:49.360 on me.

00:22:51.040 And I'm a little

00:22:52.080 concerned that

00:22:52.740 Facebook doesn't

00:22:53.360 think of me

00:22:53.760 that way.

00:22:54.880 I think,

00:22:55.680 look,

00:22:55.900 honestly,

00:22:56.320 it's a badge

00:22:56.840 of honor

00:22:57.220 when,

00:22:57.540 when,

00:22:57.800 when these,

00:22:58.760 when people

00:22:59.800 like the New

00:23:00.320 York Times

00:23:00.740 are coming

00:23:01.100 after us

00:23:01.620 and trying

00:23:01.960 to smear us,

00:23:02.760 I would much

00:23:03.340 rather have

00:23:03.840 them doing

00:23:04.260 that than

00:23:04.820 praising us

00:23:05.500 and saying

00:23:05.940 that we're

00:23:06.180 great.

00:23:06.660 So I think

00:23:07.840 it's a good

00:23:08.260 thing.

00:23:08.560 I mean,

00:23:08.780 I think it

00:23:09.200 means that

00:23:09.520 we're on

00:23:09.800 the right

00:23:10.040 track,

00:23:10.580 honestly.

00:23:11.720 But the

00:23:12.260 stuff with

00:23:12.600 big tech

00:23:13.140 and putting

00:23:13.520 out those

00:23:13.860 warnings,

00:23:14.360 I mean,

00:23:14.520 it's very

00:23:14.860 ominous,

00:23:15.360 isn't it?

00:23:15.680 It's no

00:23:17.960 laughing matter

00:23:18.560 on one

00:23:19.320 hand because

00:23:19.880 they're basically

00:23:20.760 looking for you 0.94

00:23:21.380 to rat on 0.97

00:23:22.140 your friends

00:23:22.720 and your

00:23:22.980 neighbors and

00:23:23.640 expose them

00:23:24.880 for being

00:23:25.220 extremists.

00:23:25.960 I made a

00:23:26.460 joke about

00:23:26.840 this.

00:23:27.140 I said,

00:23:27.420 you know,

00:23:27.600 I'm concerned

00:23:28.260 that some

00:23:28.760 of my,

00:23:29.180 some of my,

00:23:30.420 some of my

00:23:31.180 friends are

00:23:31.680 pro-abortion,

00:23:32.640 that they're

00:23:32.880 okay with

00:23:33.240 abortion.

00:23:33.720 Does that

00:23:34.020 count?

00:23:35.120 You know,

00:23:35.780 it's,

00:23:36.160 it's just,

00:23:36.720 it's amazing

00:23:37.320 how views on

00:23:38.340 one side of

00:23:38.880 the political

00:23:39.280 spectrum are

00:23:40.300 considered

00:23:40.640 extremism,

00:23:41.380 but not on

00:23:41.680 the other.

00:23:41.940 Yeah,

00:23:43.840 it's,

00:23:44.220 it really

00:23:44.780 is something.

00:23:45.440 I mean,

00:23:45.740 when you guys

00:23:46.460 started this,

00:23:47.180 was this all

00:23:47.600 your,

00:23:47.920 always the

00:23:48.500 plan or

00:23:48.980 was there,

00:23:49.600 I mean,

00:23:49.940 what,

00:23:50.240 what was,

00:23:50.860 like,

00:23:51.440 what was the

00:23:52.000 kind of the

00:23:52.460 spark with

00:23:53.480 the Babylon

00:23:53.940 Bee? 0.96

00:23:54.280 I mean,

00:23:54.500 you probably

00:23:54.980 had no idea

00:23:55.720 you would be

00:23:56.100 where you are

00:23:56.500 today and

00:23:57.000 could see

00:23:57.560 this coming.

00:23:59.760 No,

00:24:00.300 but the guy,

00:24:01.140 Adam Ford is

00:24:01.960 the founder of

00:24:02.580 the Babylon

00:24:02.920 Bee.

00:24:03.260 He started

00:24:03.680 it in

00:24:03.980 2016 and

00:24:05.300 he did see

00:24:05.860 that there

00:24:06.180 was a

00:24:06.540 absolutely

00:24:07.240 huge

00:24:07.760 opportunity

00:24:08.400 to go

00:24:08.940 into,

00:24:10.300 to tap

00:24:11.740 into

00:24:12.180 the

00:24:12.500 untapped

00:24:13.340 market

00:24:13.840 where people

00:24:14.460 on the

00:24:15.260 right were

00:24:15.640 not,

00:24:15.900 you know,

00:24:16.040 the left

00:24:16.320 has always

00:24:16.680 been very

00:24:17.140 good at

00:24:17.480 satire,

00:24:18.040 at mockery,

00:24:18.560 at ridicule.

00:24:20.160 You know,

00:24:20.300 they've always

00:24:20.840 been great

00:24:21.500 at,

00:24:21.880 and I think

00:24:22.220 a lot of

00:24:22.540 the reason

00:24:22.820 is because

00:24:23.120 they don't

00:24:23.400 have great

00:24:23.780 arguments for

00:24:24.320 their position.

00:24:25.000 They resort

00:24:25.880 to ridicule

00:24:26.640 because,

00:24:27.520 you know,

00:24:28.160 that's how

00:24:28.460 they think

00:24:28.820 they're refuting

00:24:29.360 you.

00:24:30.160 But the

00:24:31.080 right has

00:24:31.500 historically

00:24:31.940 been much

00:24:32.580 worse at

00:24:33.040 that.

00:24:33.600 And so

00:24:33.980 there was a

00:24:34.400 huge void

00:24:35.140 there that

00:24:35.800 the Babylon

00:24:36.380 Bee

00:24:36.640 filled.

00:24:37.520 So the

00:24:37.960 site took

00:24:38.380 off like

00:24:41.740 credit to

00:24:42.140 Adam for

00:24:42.620 seeing that

00:24:43.100 opportunity

00:24:43.580 there and

00:24:44.140 executing on

00:24:44.880 it.

00:24:45.180 I think

00:24:45.720 the Babylon

00:24:46.100 Bee was

00:24:46.900 able to

00:24:47.240 do

00:24:47.540 conservative

00:24:48.840 Christian

00:24:49.360 humor that

00:24:50.020 wasn't

00:24:50.360 cheesy and

00:24:51.040 that really

00:24:51.440 connected with

00:24:52.000 people.

00:24:52.440 It was,

00:24:52.680 you know,

00:24:53.260 it was

00:24:53.560 snarky and

00:24:54.100 it was fun

00:24:54.540 and it

00:24:54.720 was biting

00:24:55.180 and it

00:24:55.760 stung on

00:24:56.520 both sides

00:24:57.260 and didn't

00:24:58.220 really pull

00:24:58.660 back,

00:24:59.380 pull any

00:24:59.620 punches on

00:25:00.120 anybody.

00:25:00.680 You know,

00:25:01.300 Trump was

00:25:01.960 one of our

00:25:02.300 biggest targets

00:25:02.900 during his

00:25:03.420 presidency.

00:25:04.160 So I

00:25:05.020 think that's

00:25:05.340 part of the

00:25:05.760 reason why

00:25:05.980 the Bee's

00:25:06.280 been so

00:25:06.580 successful.

00:25:08.260 So,

00:25:08.980 Seth Dillon

00:25:09.860 with the

00:25:10.320 Babylon Bee

00:25:11.060 right now,

00:25:13.360 just last

00:25:14.200 kind of

00:25:14.480 thing before

00:25:15.100 I let you

00:25:15.560 go is

00:25:16.080 you guys,

00:25:16.960 it must be

00:25:17.300 a fun

00:25:17.660 work environment

00:25:18.340 but you're

00:25:18.720 finding yourself

00:25:19.380 in some

00:25:19.740 serious places

00:25:20.580 too.

00:25:22.900 You know,

00:25:23.240 where do you

00:25:23.800 see all

00:25:24.800 of this

00:25:25.080 going?

00:25:26.340 You're so

00:25:26.820 much,

00:25:27.160 I don't

00:25:27.340 know if

00:25:27.620 it's a

00:25:28.520 prophetic

00:25:28.920 thing or

00:25:29.600 if it's,

00:25:30.080 you know,

00:25:30.620 I'm not

00:25:30.880 asking you

00:25:31.180 to get the

00:25:31.460 crystal ball

00:25:32.080 out or

00:25:32.380 anything but

00:25:32.900 just because

00:25:33.680 you're so

00:25:34.040 close to it

00:25:34.620 maybe,

00:25:34.980 where do you

00:25:35.360 see us

00:25:36.680 headed and

00:25:37.660 what's

00:25:38.660 resonating with

00:25:39.320 people on

00:25:39.880 your website

00:25:40.380 and the

00:25:40.700 things,

00:25:40.980 the

00:25:41.060 content you

00:25:41.500 guys produce

00:25:41.980 and where

00:25:43.120 we're headed

00:25:43.500 as a

00:25:43.820 country?

00:25:45.840 Well,

00:25:46.440 I mean,

00:25:46.760 just for

00:25:47.180 where we're

00:25:47.840 headed,

00:25:48.200 I mean,

00:25:48.420 we're going

00:25:49.120 to continue

00:25:49.520 to see a

00:25:49.960 lot of

00:25:50.140 these attacks.

00:25:50.860 You know,

00:25:50.960 we're seeing

00:25:51.300 the landscape

00:25:51.960 evolve a little

00:25:52.740 bit.

00:25:53.360 I think

00:25:53.620 these attempts

00:25:54.160 to label

00:25:54.660 us as

00:25:55.180 misinformation

00:25:55.720 and shut 0.99

00:25:56.460 us down

00:25:56.920 and suppress

00:25:57.540 our speech

00:25:58.160 have failed.

00:25:59.420 You know,

00:25:59.960 our victory

00:26:00.360 against the

00:26:00.760 New York

00:26:00.960 Times and

00:26:01.460 getting to

00:26:01.980 retract those 0.71

00:26:02.680 statements

00:26:03.040 is evidence

00:26:04.280 of that.

00:26:05.020 But now

00:26:05.440 they're switching

00:26:05.920 course and

00:26:06.540 they're attacking

00:26:07.360 from a different

00:26:08.040 angle and we

00:26:10.100 have Facebook

00:26:10.680 now saying

00:26:11.320 that satire

00:26:11.960 that is down

00:26:13.100 is not allowed.

00:26:14.020 That doesn't

00:26:14.300 count as satire

00:26:15.100 because it's

00:26:15.700 hate speech

00:26:16.220 disguised as

00:26:17.020 satire.

00:26:18.200 And now

00:26:18.620 you've got

00:26:19.020 media outlets

00:26:20.620 like Slate

00:26:21.260 writing articles

00:26:21.960 later after that

00:26:23.140 policy is announced

00:26:23.960 that the Babylon

00:26:25.220 Bee has a nasty 1.00

00:26:26.120 tendency to punch

00:26:27.180 down.

00:26:27.540 So I think

00:26:28.340 that's the new

00:26:29.000 line of attack.

00:26:30.060 They're going to

00:26:30.300 say that we're

00:26:30.860 spreading hatred

00:26:31.760 under the guise of

00:26:32.580 satire instead of

00:26:33.360 misinformation under

00:26:34.180 the guise of

00:26:34.580 satire.

00:26:34.900 So there's

00:26:35.700 this ongoing

00:26:36.580 battle where

00:26:37.260 we're defending

00:26:37.940 ourselves and

00:26:38.720 our right to

00:26:39.240 speak freely,

00:26:39.920 our right to

00:26:40.920 make these jokes

00:26:41.760 that me on the

00:26:42.600 left wants us

00:26:43.260 to make because

00:26:43.880 these are

00:26:44.220 protected targets.

00:26:45.860 I mean this

00:26:46.140 whole idea that

00:26:47.180 we're punching

00:26:47.700 down is just so

00:26:48.580 insane.

00:26:49.460 We are punching

00:26:50.360 back and we're

00:26:51.160 punching up at

00:26:52.100 all this top

00:26:53.840 down tyranny from

00:26:54.920 the progressive

00:26:55.700 left.

00:26:56.680 There are ideas

00:26:57.800 that are being

00:26:58.820 imposed on

00:26:59.420 everyone from

00:27:00.060 the biggest

00:27:00.460 corporations,

00:27:01.400 celebrities,

00:27:02.020 politicians.

00:27:02.860 It's all coming

00:27:03.520 from high up.

00:27:05.040 And so when we

00:27:05.600 push back on

00:27:06.360 that and we

00:27:06.800 fight back,

00:27:07.420 they try to say

00:27:07.980 that we're

00:27:08.240 punching down.

00:27:09.020 That's just

00:27:09.340 absurd.

00:27:10.040 And the idea

00:27:10.480 that you can

00:27:10.860 punch down

00:27:11.360 anyway that,

00:27:12.120 you know,

00:27:12.280 oh, don't

00:27:12.620 make jokes

00:27:13.020 about women

00:27:13.440 that's punching

00:27:13.920 down.

00:27:14.280 Why do you

00:27:14.640 say that?

00:27:15.120 Are women 0.97

00:27:15.440 beneath me?

00:27:16.720 I don't think

00:27:17.500 that.

00:27:18.320 So, you know,

00:27:19.260 it's just we're

00:27:19.900 in a crazy

00:27:20.620 environment right

00:27:21.400 now where we're

00:27:21.820 still defending

00:27:22.340 ourselves against

00:27:22.980 a lot of that 0.63

00:27:23.500 nonsense.

00:27:24.220 But as far as

00:27:24.840 where this is

00:27:25.280 all going, I

00:27:25.820 try to stay

00:27:26.280 optimistic and I

00:27:27.060 hope the pendulum

00:27:27.580 swings back the

00:27:28.300 other way.

00:27:29.480 Seth Dillon,

00:27:30.100 thank you so

00:27:30.680 much for being

00:27:31.180 here with us.

00:27:31.680 Good luck to

00:27:32.120 you, man.

00:27:32.500 And we

00:27:32.760 appreciate it.

00:27:33.460 Keep up the

00:27:34.580 great work at

00:27:35.160 the Babylon B.

00:27:36.960 Thanks so much.

00:27:37.760 Appreciate you.

00:27:38.160 The best of the

00:27:41.140 Glenn Beck

00:27:41.540 program.

00:27:48.020 People are

00:27:48.900 fighting back.

00:27:49.960 They are

00:27:50.260 standing up.

00:27:51.060 I mean, even

00:27:51.500 when it seems

00:27:52.300 like all may be

00:27:53.320 lost and it's

00:27:56.260 hopeless at times,

00:27:57.140 there is some

00:27:57.660 good news.

00:28:01.320 You know, it's

00:28:02.140 one of the

00:28:02.680 things I talk

00:28:03.240 about in my

00:28:06.280 book, Good

00:28:06.700 News, that there

00:28:07.760 are things

00:28:08.500 happening in

00:28:09.780 the world, I

00:28:10.800 think, that are

00:28:11.480 worth celebrating.

00:28:13.600 And we ought to

00:28:14.300 do that more

00:28:15.280 often.

00:28:15.900 You're not going

00:28:16.320 to hear it in the

00:28:16.860 headlines and

00:28:17.380 nightly news.

00:28:17.940 You're not going

00:28:18.260 to see it from

00:28:19.500 the usual

00:28:19.860 suspects.

00:28:20.820 But when we

00:28:21.340 see it, we

00:28:21.700 ought to make

00:28:22.100 sure that we

00:28:22.480 share those

00:28:23.000 things and we

00:28:23.580 definitely tell

00:28:24.300 those stories

00:28:24.920 with each other

00:28:25.580 and together.

00:28:28.060 There's one

00:28:28.680 such video I

00:28:29.400 wanted to share

00:28:29.880 with you.

00:28:30.140 This comes from

00:28:30.800 a dad in

00:28:31.680 Arizona who's

00:28:32.740 gone to a

00:28:33.220 school board

00:28:33.620 meeting.

00:28:34.620 First of all,

00:28:35.720 I congratulate

00:28:36.280 him for that.

00:28:36.940 parents, you've

00:28:38.360 got to go to

00:28:39.080 school board

00:28:39.560 meetings.

00:28:40.620 We've got to

00:28:41.380 be engaged

00:28:42.160 civically.

00:28:43.860 We've got to

00:28:44.520 be engaged in

00:28:45.100 our kids in

00:28:46.180 their education.

00:28:46.880 If you're going

00:28:47.460 to send them to

00:28:47.840 public school,

00:28:48.500 especially, we've

00:28:51.100 got to be engaged

00:28:52.020 in that process to

00:28:53.160 let these people

00:28:53.780 know that we're

00:28:54.380 watching, that

00:28:55.980 we're going to

00:28:56.240 be a part of

00:28:56.800 it, that we're

00:28:57.440 actively participating.

00:28:59.800 This man is

00:29:00.740 speaking up and

00:29:01.440 it's also what he

00:29:02.380 says.

00:29:03.480 From his

00:29:04.100 perspective as a

00:29:04.860 black man, a

00:29:06.340 father, what

00:29:08.320 he says about

00:29:08.920 what they're

00:29:09.340 teaching, the

00:29:10.600 critical race

00:29:11.160 theory, and the

00:29:12.240 divisive things

00:29:13.380 that they're

00:29:13.700 teaching in

00:29:14.240 schools.

00:29:15.160 Take a listen.

00:29:16.220 From Chandler.

00:29:19.340 Thank you.

00:29:21.360 I'm not part of

00:29:22.380 any group.

00:29:23.040 I just came

00:29:23.520 here because my

00:29:24.260 kids are 8,

00:29:25.340 10, and 12.

00:29:26.840 And we start

00:29:29.940 to experience

00:29:30.860 things as far

00:29:31.660 as Black

00:29:32.180 History Month.

00:29:32.820 my kids will

00:29:34.140 come home and

00:29:35.020 they will be

00:29:35.280 afraid.

00:29:36.340 And I would

00:29:37.020 always ask them

00:29:37.540 what was going

00:29:38.040 on, and then I

00:29:38.800 start realizing

00:29:39.440 that they were

00:29:40.140 teaching stuff,

00:29:41.220 they taught my

00:29:42.060 kids about

00:29:42.520 slavery, and

00:29:43.720 then civil rights,

00:29:45.020 and nothing in

00:29:45.660 between.

00:29:46.240 And now you

00:29:46.820 got CRT, and

00:29:49.280 I ask you guys

00:29:51.500 not to burden my

00:29:52.380 kids with something

00:29:52.980 that's going to

00:29:53.340 hold them back.

00:29:54.240 30 seconds.

00:29:55.100 I don't really

00:29:55.600 teach them all the

00:29:56.900 history because I

00:29:58.080 want them to soar

00:29:58.880 as big as they can

00:29:59.760 be without the

00:30:00.800 burden of someone

00:30:01.440 saying where

00:30:02.020 you're oppressed

00:30:02.780 or I'm being

00:30:04.740 nice to you is

00:30:05.320 why you're

00:30:05.740 succeeding.

00:30:06.540 I want my

00:30:07.120 kids to just

00:30:07.760 thrive and

00:30:08.720 continue to be

00:30:09.360 kids and grow

00:30:10.480 as much as

00:30:10.900 they possibly

00:30:11.320 can.

00:30:11.600 So I ask you

00:30:12.100 guys, just

00:30:13.540 take a look at

00:30:14.580 what you're doing

00:30:15.060 and what the

00:30:15.680 future is going

00:30:16.180 to hold for

00:30:17.640 the kids that

00:30:18.220 are experiencing

00:30:18.720 all this right

00:30:19.380 now.

00:30:20.240 That's pretty

00:30:20.820 much all I have

00:30:21.360 to say.

00:30:21.900 The father

00:30:22.340 making a plea

00:30:23.300 at a school

00:30:23.920 board meeting.

00:30:26.340 It may not

00:30:27.140 seem like

00:30:28.140 he's doing

00:30:32.200 anything

00:30:32.840 too grand.

00:30:35.320 It may not

00:30:35.680 seem like he

00:30:36.260 is wielding

00:30:38.520 a sword

00:30:39.060 and just

00:30:41.920 completed a

00:30:43.220 battle and

00:30:46.060 come out

00:30:46.620 victoriously.

00:30:47.360 But I

00:30:47.920 applaud that

00:30:48.980 man because

00:30:51.380 he's done

00:30:51.800 what a lot

00:30:52.540 of folks

00:30:53.060 more and

00:30:54.100 more are

00:30:54.460 doing every

00:30:55.000 day.

00:30:57.100 And we

00:30:57.780 ought to

00:30:58.200 consider doing

00:30:59.100 ourselves.

00:31:00.540 Whether you

00:31:01.040 got kids or

00:31:01.480 not, if

00:31:01.820 you're a

00:31:02.060 taxpayer, you

00:31:02.620 live in the

00:31:04.040 area that you

00:31:05.020 live in, a

00:31:05.640 lot of times

00:31:06.280 your home

00:31:06.660 values are

00:31:07.300 even tied

00:31:08.600 to the

00:31:10.180 schools.

00:31:10.860 Like where

00:31:11.120 we live, it's

00:31:11.780 a great school

00:31:12.300 system, their

00:31:14.380 home values are

00:31:15.140 tied to that,

00:31:15.980 you're paying

00:31:16.420 taxes on it,

00:31:17.280 etc.

00:31:19.120 So you

00:31:19.680 ought to have

00:31:20.120 some input.

00:31:23.060 especially in

00:31:24.540 that system.

00:31:26.240 Another place

00:31:26.800 where they're

00:31:27.100 seeing right

00:31:27.560 now critical

00:31:28.380 race theory

00:31:28.960 and divisiveness

00:31:30.120 sort of rearing

00:31:31.900 its ugly 0.94

00:31:32.340 head is a 1.00

00:31:34.820 place that

00:31:35.300 is very

00:31:35.920 concerning.

00:31:37.180 In fact,

00:31:37.560 that's the

00:31:37.920 military.

00:31:39.680 Joining us to

00:31:40.180 talk a little

00:31:40.500 bit about

00:31:40.860 that, author

00:31:42.240 Adam Davis,

00:31:43.020 good friend of

00:31:43.480 mine, he's

00:31:43.980 written several

00:31:44.600 books, multiple

00:31:45.380 on different

00:31:46.520 topics, but

00:31:47.140 they all

00:31:47.460 really revolve

00:31:48.760 around the

00:31:49.040 same theme.

00:31:49.740 He's a

00:31:49.980 retired police

00:31:50.640 officer.

00:31:51.160 Supporting

00:31:52.900 those folks

00:31:53.380 who go out

00:31:53.800 and serve

00:31:54.240 for us,

00:31:54.820 whether it's

00:31:55.760 in the

00:31:56.660 line of

00:31:57.100 duty on

00:31:57.680 the call

00:31:58.520 here on

00:32:00.080 our streets

00:32:00.740 or in

00:32:01.320 battlefields

00:32:02.740 all throughout

00:32:03.420 the world.

00:32:04.100 Adam,

00:32:04.500 appreciate you

00:32:04.960 being here

00:32:05.260 with us

00:32:05.500 today.

00:32:05.720 How are

00:32:05.980 you?

00:32:07.120 Justin,

00:32:07.640 always an

00:32:08.100 honor to

00:32:08.400 speak with

00:32:08.740 you, my

00:32:08.980 friend, and

00:32:09.580 doing well,

00:32:10.440 doing well

00:32:10.900 here in

00:32:11.700 South Alabama

00:32:12.480 down in

00:32:12.900 Dothan,

00:32:13.300 Alabama, and

00:32:14.040 wonderful to

00:32:15.000 be able to

00:32:15.640 speak with

00:32:16.000 you again on

00:32:16.480 such an

00:32:16.820 important

00:32:17.020 matter.

00:32:17.340 So, recently

00:32:19.060 the military

00:32:20.000 is now

00:32:22.680 going through

00:32:24.780 this woke

00:32:25.400 process, and

00:32:26.620 it's something

00:32:27.400 that a lot of

00:32:27.960 folks, as we're

00:32:28.460 watching it, very

00:32:29.720 concerning, because

00:32:30.560 you think about

00:32:31.300 this, and you

00:32:31.800 think, wow, if

00:32:32.840 this falls, I

00:32:35.080 mean, some of

00:32:35.760 the real last

00:32:37.780 havens in

00:32:38.600 government and

00:32:40.920 service is our

00:32:41.860 military.

00:32:42.280 You've got

00:32:42.820 patriots there

00:32:43.640 that are

00:32:44.900 conservative, that

00:32:45.980 are traditional,

00:32:47.340 they might

00:32:47.980 call them

00:32:48.340 extremists

00:32:48.860 now, but I

00:32:49.880 think the

00:32:50.160 real extremists

00:32:51.060 are the

00:32:51.320 ones who

00:32:52.760 are the

00:32:53.520 Marxists, who

00:32:54.480 are trying to

00:32:55.200 drive a wedge

00:32:56.600 and drive this

00:32:57.560 ideology into

00:32:59.180 places that it

00:33:00.020 doesn't belong,

00:33:01.020 like the

00:33:01.560 military.

00:33:03.380 Yeah, well,

00:33:04.100 that's the thing

00:33:04.920 you have to

00:33:05.300 realize, and I

00:33:06.000 think more and

00:33:07.420 more people are

00:33:08.060 realizing it now,

00:33:09.620 is that for the

00:33:10.380 true extremists,

00:33:12.420 which are the

00:33:13.640 liberal, the

00:33:14.360 woke crowd,

00:33:15.740 whatever you

00:33:16.920 want to label

00:33:17.360 them as, the

00:33:18.320 ones that want

00:33:18.840 to destroy the

00:33:19.520 very foundation

00:33:20.340 of fundamental

00:33:21.060 truths of our

00:33:22.240 nation.

00:33:22.980 There is nothing

00:33:23.920 sacred to them,

00:33:25.180 not our

00:33:25.700 constitution, not

00:33:26.620 our way of

00:33:27.020 life, not the

00:33:28.540 military, the

00:33:29.440 church, the

00:33:29.880 school system,

00:33:30.480 they want to

00:33:30.920 attack the

00:33:31.380 very core of

00:33:32.800 who we are,

00:33:34.040 and there's no

00:33:34.980 place for such

00:33:35.700 divisive teaching

00:33:36.740 in the military.

00:33:38.580 Like, you know,

00:33:39.220 law enforcement,

00:33:39.920 you have to move

00:33:40.500 as one, you have

00:33:41.400 to be united, and

00:33:43.440 they want to

00:33:44.240 divide every

00:33:44.980 facet of

00:33:45.800 America so

00:33:46.520 that they can

00:33:46.980 conquer America

00:33:47.800 with their

00:33:48.360 socialist and

00:33:49.840 Marxist ideas,

00:33:51.000 where their

00:33:51.260 communist

00:33:51.740 propaganda, they 0.94

00:33:53.320 want to destroy

00:33:54.020 America and turn 0.96

00:33:54.820 it into what

00:33:55.580 they want.

00:33:56.100 They want to

00:33:56.400 make you a

00:33:56.860 slave to their

00:33:57.700 rule.

00:33:58.640 That's what they

00:33:59.180 want, and this

00:33:59.920 is just part of

00:34:00.480 their strategy, and

00:34:01.840 it has to be

00:34:02.360 stopped immediately.

00:34:04.200 It's happening in

00:34:05.020 the military, but

00:34:05.760 you're also seeing

00:34:06.420 it with the

00:34:08.240 police officers, and

00:34:09.140 I know you

00:34:09.600 served as a

00:34:11.540 police officer, but

00:34:12.300 now you serve

00:34:13.140 police officers,

00:34:14.140 and you serve

00:34:14.780 first responders,

00:34:16.980 and folks in the

00:34:18.140 military as well.

00:34:18.980 As an author, you

00:34:19.660 write books, a lot

00:34:21.120 of times devotionals.

00:34:22.300 These are things

00:34:23.120 that are directly

00:34:24.860 serving the souls

00:34:25.840 of these folks who

00:34:27.860 probably need it

00:34:29.180 more than any of

00:34:31.440 us these days.

00:34:32.500 They're constantly

00:34:33.320 under attack, but

00:34:34.100 you see the same

00:34:34.760 thing that we're

00:34:35.860 seeing now in the

00:34:36.400 military, been

00:34:36.940 happening with

00:34:38.200 police and police

00:34:40.580 departments all

00:34:41.220 across the

00:34:41.640 country.

00:34:41.740 We heard all

00:34:42.000 across the

00:34:42.580 country last

00:34:43.320 year about

00:34:43.800 defunding the

00:34:44.600 police, and

00:34:45.180 now we're

00:34:45.580 starting to see

00:34:46.260 some of those

00:34:46.880 places where

00:34:47.420 they tried that.

00:34:48.680 It didn't work

00:34:49.940 too well, and

00:34:50.560 of course, they're

00:34:51.120 having the

00:34:51.460 backtrack on

00:34:52.160 that, but it

00:34:53.280 can't be easy to

00:34:54.840 serve in the

00:34:55.320 line of duty

00:34:55.720 these days.

00:34:57.180 No, well, you

00:34:58.320 know, the fact

00:34:58.840 is that they

00:34:59.300 want to erase

00:34:59.960 truth, and they

00:35:00.680 want to redefine

00:35:01.440 truth, but you

00:35:02.240 can't redefine

00:35:03.060 what the truth

00:35:03.620 is, and we

00:35:05.020 have to go back

00:35:05.680 to the basics of

00:35:06.560 who we are as

00:35:07.140 a country.

00:35:08.820 Yes, you can

00:35:09.560 believe differently.

00:35:10.360 In fact, you can

00:35:11.360 speak things that

00:35:12.540 are against what

00:35:13.800 I believe, but

00:35:15.200 that's the beauty

00:35:15.900 of America, is

00:35:17.600 that you can have

00:35:19.240 a different belief

00:35:20.000 without being

00:35:21.060 persecuted, but the

00:35:22.460 people who are

00:35:22.980 behind this

00:35:23.680 critical race

00:35:24.340 theory and

00:35:24.860 behind defund

00:35:25.940 the police and

00:35:26.720 all these divisive

00:35:27.680 movements, they

00:35:28.860 don't believe the

00:35:29.720 same way.

00:35:30.620 They want to

00:35:31.140 silence and censor

00:35:32.580 the people who

00:35:33.580 speak the truth.

00:35:34.500 They want to

00:35:34.880 silence the

00:35:35.440 conservative movement

00:35:36.220 and label us

00:35:37.080 extremists, and the

00:35:38.700 only way that

00:35:39.240 we can see

00:35:39.800 America grow

00:35:40.700 and continue

00:35:41.420 to be a

00:35:41.980 country, a

00:35:43.600 land of liberty

00:35:44.400 and freedom, is

00:35:45.820 where we all

00:35:46.380 have the freedom

00:35:47.020 and liberty to

00:35:47.780 speak, and

00:35:48.420 speak truth, and

00:35:49.480 silence those who

00:35:50.360 want to divide

00:35:51.100 America.

00:35:54.040 You know, we've

00:35:55.380 talked about this

00:35:56.200 earlier today, but

00:35:57.420 why are they

00:36:00.040 trying to divide,

00:36:01.580 and not just

00:36:02.300 each of us, and

00:36:03.720 by the way, I

00:36:04.640 don't think it's

00:36:05.080 working.

00:36:05.540 I don't think

00:36:05.940 Americans are as 0.98

00:36:07.300 divided as they

00:36:07.960 want us to

00:36:08.400 believe, but why

00:36:09.320 is that their

00:36:10.540 goal?

00:36:11.120 Why are they

00:36:11.780 trying to do

00:36:12.260 this?

00:36:13.420 You can't

00:36:14.220 defeat a

00:36:14.900 united front.

00:36:16.380 It doesn't

00:36:16.800 matter if

00:36:17.200 there's three

00:36:17.620 people or

00:36:18.160 30 million or

00:36:18.920 300 million.

00:36:20.340 If an enemy

00:36:21.520 of 1 billion

00:36:22.320 comes against

00:36:23.060 300 million, but

00:36:25.040 that 300 million

00:36:26.040 is united and

00:36:27.380 arms locked

00:36:28.140 shoulder to

00:36:28.780 shoulder, that's

00:36:29.260 why military and

00:36:30.380 law enforcement

00:36:30.900 operations are so

00:36:31.900 successful.

00:36:33.000 They move as

00:36:33.580 one, they're

00:36:34.140 united.

00:36:34.740 They have one

00:36:35.240 mission.

00:36:36.140 They move as

00:36:36.660 one body.

00:36:38.000 You think

00:36:38.720 about marriages,

00:36:39.940 marriages where

00:36:40.880 the couples are

00:36:42.520 on different

00:36:43.100 terms, where

00:36:43.980 they're on

00:36:44.240 different pages,

00:36:44.960 where they're

00:36:45.200 not united, they

00:36:46.060 face conflict, they

00:36:47.000 fall apart.

00:36:47.860 If they're united

00:36:48.560 as one in every

00:36:49.520 aspect, they're

00:36:50.800 more successful in

00:36:51.720 everything.

00:36:52.480 Unity is the

00:36:53.900 beautiful joy.

00:36:54.840 It is truly the

00:36:56.820 greatest thing of

00:36:57.620 all.

00:36:58.140 When you're looking

00:36:58.620 at a country, when

00:36:59.440 you're looking at a

00:37:00.060 family, when you're

00:37:00.680 looking at a

00:37:01.160 business, you need

00:37:02.420 to be united.

00:37:03.280 An opponent cannot

00:37:04.200 come from the

00:37:04.880 outside and take

00:37:05.580 down a united front,

00:37:06.420 no matter how

00:37:06.900 much they're

00:37:08.420 outnumbered.

00:37:09.560 You see foreign 1.00

00:37:11.400 interference, you

00:37:12.680 see foreign

00:37:13.380 adversaries.

00:37:15.080 They love the

00:37:16.480 division that they

00:37:17.560 see coming from

00:37:18.820 the media in the

00:37:20.360 United States because

00:37:21.280 they see us as an

00:37:22.220 easy target.

00:37:23.420 It is all an attack

00:37:24.540 to divide America,

00:37:25.740 to further their

00:37:26.680 propaganda, to

00:37:28.160 take down Christian 1.00

00:37:29.020 ideals, to take

00:37:31.020 down the Christian 1.00

00:37:31.680 fundamentals, the

00:37:33.640 foundation of who

00:37:34.460 we are, to

00:37:35.840 redefine, to

00:37:36.640 fundamentally reshape

00:37:38.100 America.

00:37:39.020 They want to

00:37:39.560 further the

00:37:40.300 communist propaganda,

00:37:41.620 the Marxist

00:37:42.140 movement.

00:37:42.560 They want everything

00:37:43.740 to go their way or

00:37:45.500 it's not the right

00:37:46.140 way at all.

00:37:46.940 This isn't about

00:37:47.780 liberty and freedom

00:37:48.820 for them.

00:37:50.000 This is about

00:37:50.720 taking over and

00:37:52.220 conquering America.

00:37:53.280 Adam Davis, author

00:37:56.040 of several books.

00:37:56.720 By the way, we'll

00:37:57.400 tell you about those

00:37:58.020 coming up here in

00:37:58.540 a second.

00:37:58.880 But as you're

00:37:59.820 serving those who

00:38:00.780 are in service to

00:38:01.520 others, what are

00:38:02.240 you hearing from

00:38:03.120 whether it's

00:38:03.600 military or police

00:38:05.320 or what are you

00:38:05.960 hearing, what

00:38:07.180 they're facing, some

00:38:08.060 of the issues they're

00:38:08.660 facing on a daily

00:38:09.320 basis?

00:38:10.740 You know, law

00:38:11.180 enforcement, one of

00:38:11.860 the biggest things is

00:38:12.620 you see these just 1.00

00:38:15.040 absolute idiots calling 1.00

00:38:16.420 for defunding police 1.00

00:38:17.700 and that's all you can

00:38:18.860 label it because they

00:38:20.300 think that they're

00:38:20.880 hurting police and

00:38:21.840 they are.

00:38:22.300 But the people

00:38:23.420 that are hurting are

00:38:24.260 themselves.

00:38:25.700 So defund the police.

00:38:27.000 That's one of the

00:38:27.560 biggest things.

00:38:28.220 But you know what?

00:38:28.840 The beauty of it all

00:38:29.660 is through all of

00:38:30.420 this, you don't hear

00:38:31.100 about this on the

00:38:31.760 news.

00:38:32.000 And I know you talk

00:38:32.820 about this.

00:38:33.520 We don't hear the

00:38:34.200 good news.

00:38:35.080 You don't hear that

00:38:36.520 over 70% of Americans

00:38:38.380 trust and support

00:38:39.240 law enforcement.

00:38:40.040 You don't hear the

00:38:41.240 good things that are

00:38:41.900 happening and the

00:38:42.420 people who let them

00:38:43.060 know they appreciate

00:38:43.800 them and support

00:38:44.400 them.

00:38:45.120 So out of all of

00:38:46.240 these cries that get

00:38:47.180 media attention for

00:38:48.040 defund the police, the

00:38:49.920 vast majority of

00:38:51.180 Americans support and

00:38:52.280 love law enforcement,

00:38:53.840 support first

00:38:54.480 responders, and love

00:38:55.280 the military.

00:38:56.260 And we've got to get

00:38:56.900 back to where we

00:38:57.560 highlight that more

00:38:58.340 than we highlight the 1.00

00:38:59.060 idiots. 1.00

00:38:59.440 Take the microphone 1.00

00:39:00.140 away from the people

00:39:01.160 who hate America and

00:39:02.520 give it to the ones

00:39:03.160 who love our country.

00:39:04.560 You know, it's an

00:39:05.380 interesting stat.

00:39:06.140 You just said over

00:39:06.600 70% support the

00:39:08.000 police, 70% of

00:39:09.340 Americans.

00:39:09.720 And so we just had

00:39:10.480 that study.

00:39:12.220 In fact, it's in my

00:39:13.320 book, Good News, that

00:39:14.240 the U.S. ranks last

00:39:15.480 among 46 countries in

00:39:16.940 trust and media.

00:39:18.520 Reuters reporting that

00:39:19.660 that trust level is down

00:39:22.040 the lowest of all the

00:39:24.020 countries, but down the

00:39:25.060 lowest it's been ever in

00:39:26.940 the history.

00:39:27.460 And I think when you

00:39:28.120 compare those two

00:39:28.860 numbers, wow, it's easy

00:39:31.460 to see who Americans

00:39:32.780 trust and why, and

00:39:34.500 probably because of their

00:39:36.420 track record and who they

00:39:38.220 are, I mean, we can be a

00:39:40.200 judge of that fairly

00:39:41.240 easily.

00:39:42.120 Adam Davis, people can go

00:39:44.480 grab your book today if

00:39:45.720 they'd like to.

00:39:47.500 You've got a couple

00:39:48.380 though, so quickly, let's

00:39:50.500 run through them.

00:39:51.780 TheAdamDavis.com is the

00:39:52.940 website.

00:39:53.800 But you've got a couple

00:39:54.560 of different books because

00:39:55.640 I know we're coming up on

00:39:56.940 the 20th anniversary of

00:39:58.140 September 11th, and I

00:39:59.780 know Americans haven't

00:40:00.580 forgotten.

00:40:00.980 I've seen the way we

00:40:01.620 celebrated over this

00:40:02.500 weekend.

00:40:03.220 You may want to give a

00:40:04.380 copy to someone that you

00:40:06.240 know, that you love, that's

00:40:07.260 serving, whether it's

00:40:08.060 a police, fire, some

00:40:11.080 sort of EMT or front

00:40:12.680 liner, or somebody who

00:40:13.740 is in the military.

00:40:15.020 What would you

00:40:15.880 recommend?

00:40:17.380 You know what?

00:40:18.420 For, first, well,

00:40:19.880 specifically law

00:40:20.660 enforcement, we've got

00:40:21.540 Behind the Badge, which

00:40:22.480 is by far the best-selling

00:40:23.660 book I have out.

00:40:24.620 Behind the Badge is

00:40:25.300 365 Daily Devotions for

00:40:27.040 Law Enforcement.

00:40:28.300 And we have one for

00:40:29.320 military and first

00:40:30.160 responders on spiritual

00:40:31.240 combat, a co-authored

00:40:32.320 by Lieutenant Colonel Dave

00:40:33.320 Grossman.

00:40:34.440 It is the absolute

00:40:36.240 essential handbook that

00:40:38.340 you need to understand

00:40:39.380 the source of everything

00:40:40.260 you see going on in the

00:40:41.200 world today.

00:40:42.260 And then the latest book

00:40:43.100 I co-authored with a

00:40:44.020 Force Recon Marine named

00:40:45.100 Chad Robichaud, called

00:40:46.340 Behind the Lines.

00:40:47.240 It's 365 Daily Challenges

00:40:49.000 for Military Personnel.

00:40:50.680 But we also have

00:40:51.760 Bulletproof Marriage, 90- 0.97

00:40:53.260 Day Devotion for Military and

00:40:55.040 First Responder of Married

00:40:55.880 Couples.

00:40:56.760 I co-authored with that

00:40:57.500 with Lieutenant Colonel Dave

00:40:58.400 Grossman.

00:40:58.860 Of course, you can find all

00:40:59.940 this on my website,

00:41:01.040 theadamdavis.com.

00:41:02.580 And we'd always love to hear

00:41:03.940 from your listeners and

00:41:05.720 connect with them in the

00:41:06.900 future.
