00:03:42.320
back in 1638 poet john milton met galileo who was elderly at the time and on house arrest just for the
00:03:53.940
insistence that the earth revolves around the sun milton was 30 at the time years later he would include
00:04:01.900
galileo in his epic poem paradise lost he wrote by night the glass so galileo observes imagined land and
00:04:11.440
regions in the moon galileo was the first human to study the moon through a telescope and he used this
00:04:19.500
new technology to view the lunar surface for thousands of years that's all we could do we could spy on the
00:04:27.440
moon it was an impossible distance away it was only 50 years ago on july 20th 1969 that buzz aldrin and
00:04:38.820
neil armstrong became the first humans to actually step foot on the lunar surface it's only been 116
00:04:47.200
years since the wright brothers invented the first successful airplane and less than a century after
00:04:52.840
the birth of aviation humans made it to the moon not only did armstrong and aldrin land on the moon
00:05:00.740
but they also returned safely with the third pilot michael collins they even went through customs at
00:05:08.000
the honolulu airport in hawaii and jokingly filled out the entry form they declared moon rocks and moon
00:05:14.960
dust and they reported that they had returned with no additional passengers they were lucky to be
00:05:22.400
alive all three of them but especially armstrong and aldrin you see after detaching from the command
00:05:30.820
module while moving around the cramped cabin of the lunar module one of the men accidentally dislodged
00:05:37.800
a circuit breaker that controlled the engines then 30 000 feet above the moon in rapid descent
00:05:45.640
the module's onboard computer began to send a signal of an alarm the computer was overloaded for some reason
00:05:53.320
each spaceflight only had two apollo guidance computers one was in the command module and the other in the
00:06:00.100
lunar landing module so you understand an iphone today has a hundred thousand times the processing power of a
00:06:07.900
computer that guided apollo 11 to the moon that's enough memory to handle 120 million moon
00:06:15.400
missions all at once from your phone nasa mission control they were about 17 seconds away from
00:06:24.060
aborting the mission because of the computer issue but luckily thanks to the brilliant work of young
00:06:29.920
coders and engineers the crisis was averted the lunar module was dangerously low on fuel it had only
00:06:37.280
216 pounds which armstrong and aldrin needed for the ascent if they had taken 26 seconds longer
00:06:45.280
apollo 11 would not have landed now imagine as you're landing you get a low gas sign on your
00:06:53.940
dashboard just as you're landing on the moon and knowing that if you run out of gas there is no gas
00:07:00.860
station and there's no way for anyone to rescue you now in the approach phase now apollo 11's forgotten
00:07:07.900
third pilot michael collins was tasked with remaining in the command module as aldrin and armstrong
00:07:14.180
descended onto the moon what happens if they don't make it back a million disasters could have happened
00:07:21.900
maybe they would crash which they sort of did maybe the clunky space suit would fail maybe they would be
00:07:28.560
affected by radiation maybe they would get lost bobbling through the moon's uneven gravity maybe the lunar module
00:07:35.680
wouldn't be able to launch i mean if anything went wrong they were stranded maybe maybe collins later
00:07:46.040
said he had nightmares about it that there he was alone in space slowly unraveling literally facing the
00:07:53.660
dark side of the moon in an interview later with the new york times he said i'm not going to commit
00:07:59.960
suicide i was coming home by myself and aldrin and armstrong knew that i mean i didn't have to
00:08:06.340
discuss it with them they didn't have to discuss it with me but it would not have been a good trip home
00:08:12.660
the scientists at nasa had considered every single possibility including these ominous outcomes in fact
00:08:20.720
president nixon had asked his speech writer william sapphire to write a speech and a contingency plan
00:08:26.660
in the event of a tragedy the lunar disaster plan speech 30 years later sapphire said in an interview
00:08:34.840
if they couldn't do it they'd have to be abandoned on the moon and left to die there the men would
00:08:42.460
either have to starve to death or they'd have to commit suicide the white house knew if that happened
00:08:49.800
armstrong and aldrin would be on their own nasa would have to cut off all communication and nixon
00:08:55.780
would have to call the men's widows then he would solemnly read sapphire's speech to the nation
00:09:03.300
that speech is gut-wrenching i had never heard it before it said fate has ordained that the men who
00:09:13.360
went to the moon to explore in peace will stay on the moon to rest in peace these brave men neil
00:09:22.220
armstrong and edwin aldrin know that there is no hope for their recovery but they also know that there
00:09:29.320
is hope for mankind in their sacrifice these two men are laying down their lives in mankind's most
00:09:37.460
noble goal the search for truth and understanding they will be mourned by their families and their
00:09:44.200
friends they will be mourned by their nation they will be mourned by the people of the world
00:09:49.800
they will be mourned by a mother earth that dared send two of her sons into the unknown
00:09:56.200
in their exploration they stirred the people of the world to feel as one in their sacrifice
00:10:03.880
they bind more tightly the brotherhood of man the speech concluded with a note of triumph
00:10:11.600
quote in ancient days when men looked at the stars and saw their heroes in the constellations
00:10:17.340
they could not imagine that in modern times we do much the same except our heroes are epic men
00:10:24.200
of flesh and blood others will follow and surely find their way home man's search will not be denied
00:10:31.980
but these men were the first and they will remain the foremost in our hearts for every human being
00:10:39.500
that looks up to the moon in the nights to come will know that there is some corner of another world
00:10:45.380
that is forever mankind thankfully we don't know the words of that speech history played out
00:10:54.180
differently the lunar module didn't exactly land gracefully the cabin wasn't properly depressurized so
00:11:01.160
when the lander detached it shot out of the orbiter with enough force that the man landed four miles
00:11:07.440
from their target but they made it the door opened and neil armstrong looked out at the landscape of gray
00:11:14.120
mush they had no idea what they were about to feel as he leapt from the ladder onto the moon
00:11:21.960
he spoke these immortal words one small step for man one giant leap for mankind president nixon then made
00:11:35.640
the first ever presidential call to the moon and told the astronauts that the whole world was proud of
00:11:41.840
and that because of what you have done the heavens have become part of man's world
00:11:48.120
armstrong and aldrin spent 21 hours on the moon they ascended without any issues and returned from the
00:11:55.340
command module gritty from their time on the moon much to the annoyance of collins
00:12:01.180
it's no coincidence that nasa's moon missions were named after apollo a towering complicated figure in
00:12:09.700
ancient greek mythology apollo was the god of music poetry and medicine the patron of sailors nurturer
00:12:16.920
of the vulnerable the god of light and sun and knowledge and truth apollo represents the best that
00:12:25.600
we as humans can achieve our human spirit because we're always dreaming of the next impossible
00:12:33.040
discovery before apollo 11 humans had spent thousands of years desperate to find a way to
00:12:40.880
launch themselves into space or at the very least they had intimately stared up at that gray rock above
00:12:47.900
because on a quiet night if the sky is clear enough we all feel a certain kinship with the
00:12:55.560
moon and sometimes it looks so close for whatever reason we wound up here on earth mostly stuck on
00:13:06.380
land despite all of our certainty we're still clueless about the universe surrounding us including our
00:13:12.780
own planet we've only explored about five percent of our ocean as for outer space the more we learn
00:13:19.600
about it the more obvious it becomes that we're in way over our heads there are ten times as many stars
00:13:26.700
in space than there are grains of sand on the earth the sahara desert is 3.5 million square miles of sand
00:13:37.320
and that's just one of our deserts the apollo 11 moon landing truly one of our greatest achievements not as a country but as
00:13:48.140
mankind it inspires us to redouble our efforts to bring peace and tranquility to earth but there is plenty
00:13:56.700
left over to discover we are only just beginning to understand our place in this universe we have an
00:14:04.140
infinite amount of learning to do we've come to the conclusion that this has been far more than three
00:14:10.980
men on a voyage to the moon i guess it's time we all learn that there is no final frontier we feel that
00:14:21.280
this stands as a symbol of the insatiable curiosity of all mankind to explore the unknown
00:14:28.760
i wish i could remember which astronaut it was i think it was on maybe 12 or apollo 13
00:14:38.220
that was so calm his nerves were such steel that he actually fell asleep on the launch pad
00:14:47.640
can you imagine that you imagine being strapped to a bomb and you're going to take off and you're
00:14:54.960
going to the moon and you fall asleep you're that calm
00:14:58.420
hey um there's a a greek paradox i'm sorry i don't remember the name of it but
00:15:16.080
it's uh it's uh it's the paradox of a of a ship if you leave the harbor and you have all of the
00:15:26.780
replacement parts for your ship in the whole of the ship and you leave harbor but as you're sailing
00:15:51.200
now you would say yes yeah it's the same ship okay i replaced it part by part however if it's in a
00:16:00.700
museum it's an old ship and somebody wanted to steal that ancient ship and they knew they couldn't just
00:16:07.500
take it out all at once they get caught and they came up with an idea why don't we just steal it one
00:16:12.280
board at a time and we'll make replacement boards and we put the replacement in one piece at a time
00:16:17.440
who has the real ship when they're done is it the same ship
00:16:22.760
it's a paradox that they've been talking about since we were making up stories about the moon and moon gods
00:16:32.640
but i want you to think 50 years ago we went to the moon 50 years ago i don't remember the moon landing
00:16:44.560
but i remember the i remember the excitement and i remember the i remember my t-shirt that i wore
00:16:51.200
but still remembers the challenger explosion so his experience of the space program it wasn't the
00:17:05.280
excitement of apollo that i experienced it was the tragedy of challenger
00:17:11.860
now the reason why i say this and i want to point out our two experiences with the space program is
00:17:17.460
because it was in it was in 1826 that it was the 50th anniversary of the declaration of independence
00:17:26.080
and both adams and jefferson died july 4th 1826 on the 50th anniversary that'd be like neil armstrong
00:17:32.960
uh and uh and all buzz aldrin dying today within an hour of each other that's how remarkable that was
00:17:41.320
but the people that were our age my age and stew's age one might not have remembered july 4th 1776 but
00:17:52.760
could remember the the excitement of the time the other their experience would probably be the war of 1812
00:18:01.960
they both remembered different americas i remember the america before 9-11 stew remembers that but my children don't
00:18:13.200
and as we have gone along we keep changing different boards in this ship we call america we keep replacing
00:18:23.980
its parts are we even the same ship it's a paradox i'm not sure we are because we're not the same crew
00:18:41.900
we're not the same we don't have the same planks
00:18:49.880
so what does it require to be able to claim yeah this is the same ship
00:18:58.480
a renewal of our mission statement that all men are created equal endowed by their creator
00:19:06.640
and governments are instituted among men to protect those rights
00:19:16.200
hey it's glenn and if you like what you hear on the program you should check out pat gray unleashed
00:19:27.840
his podcast is available wherever you download your favorite podcast you know i uh i saw a poll today
00:19:34.420
where most americans don't think the moon landing changed their life at all really didn't it wasn't
00:19:39.420
really worth it it didn't really affect uh it didn't really affect us really at all
00:19:43.620
nah it didn't you have no idea let me give you just some of the things that came from
00:19:49.260
the moon uh uh launch uh baby formula baby formula they needed to figure out how to get nutrition into a
00:19:59.640
liquid form and that's the beginning of baby formulas uh your computer mouse
00:20:05.820
that was coming from the space uh program believe it or not comfortable running shoes
00:20:14.200
you notice our shoes are very different than the converse we had in the 60s
00:20:19.260
that's because they had to make a a molding process process for the helmets that the astronauts wore
00:20:26.780
and they had to take this rubber and form it inside of the helmet and they realized
00:20:33.260
wow that that could work for shoes i didn't know about that one yeah um cell phone and cell phone
00:20:40.580
cameras uh it the the camera technology that we now have in your iphone that was originally a uh
00:20:50.440
designed for the space program so you could have cameras uh the microwave oven
00:20:56.560
uh we also have ice resistant airplanes so when you have when you have uh icing if we wouldn't be
00:21:05.900
flying in the winter if it wasn't for the space program um you also have scratch resistant lenses
00:21:13.580
those were a product of the space program uh safer highways as they were trying to figure out
00:21:22.680
how do we land some of these things when we got to the space shuttle how do we land this they were
00:21:28.060
very concerned remember flying landing the space shuttle is like a flying brick it there's you're just
00:21:35.140
falling it's controlled it's a controlled crash there's not much you can do and so you're traveling at
00:21:42.820
this high rate of speed and they were afraid that if there was anything on the tarmac if there was any
00:21:48.540
kind of dust rain anything that thing could slide right off of the tarmac so they invented the grooved
00:21:56.240
pavement pavement if you've ever lived in seattle uh you have most of your uh traffic accidents
00:22:04.920
that didn't happen you have nasa to thank for it water filtration survival blankets um invisible braces
00:22:14.160
originally developed for nasa uh for use in missile tracking uh temper form if you've ever had or foam
00:22:21.620
if you've ever had a tempur-pedic bed that temper for uh foam comes from nasa can we back up for just a
00:22:30.700
second yeah you said nasa is responsible for survival blankets the thing they're wrapping those poor
00:22:36.940
children that have been separated from their families on the border and so nasa's responsible
00:22:41.620
nasa's responsible on racists believable racist yeah so anyway gps technology i can't get around
00:22:50.380
without it nobody knows how to use a map i would never get around anyway i wouldn't i couldn't get
00:22:55.660
home this afternoon uh without it it would think about think about without gps because i i don't i use
00:23:03.980
gps on everything i used to be remember how good i used to be on just navigating yeah around i could
00:23:11.060
you could drop me in any city and i could be like it's that way um now i'm completely lost i have
00:23:19.920
no idea where i'm at at any time in the dfw i have no idea because i always use gps yeah and so you
00:23:26.180
don't learn it it's just not good no it's not probably not good remember when i was talking to
00:23:30.260
ray kurzweil and i said he was talking about how you're going to interface with the internet something
00:23:35.960
that elon musk uh just introduced this week uh but you're going to interface with the internet and i
00:23:41.440
and he said you can upgrade and i said won't that make us weaker because we won't have to really learn
00:23:48.180
anything won't that make us weaker and he said no no it'll make us stronger i wish i would have thought
00:23:52.840
of the gps example because i'm much weaker on directions now for sure another example i would
00:24:00.100
give is spelling like i mean there was a time in which you know you would people had to learn how
00:24:06.940
to spell now you kind of you type in the general word into google it pops up you're like oh that's
00:24:11.280
how you spell it and you change it like you you know you're typing an email and it just auto corrects
00:24:16.080
the way you're spelling it but it also makes you a quitter because after about three times of trying
00:24:20.760
to spell the word and it won't give you a suggestion you change the word oh that's the ultimate
00:24:27.580
failure that ultimate failure moment when you can't get close enough for google to try to figure
00:24:32.820
out what you're trying to write that's bad that's like that's bad i went on vacation last week uh and
00:24:38.200
i have a scale at home and the scale is one of these like wi-fi scales that like you know you get on
00:24:44.660
it and it tell you know it like records your weight over time which is what what do you see a freaking
00:24:49.220
roller coaster is it the one when jeffy gets on it says one at a time yes that one is that one yeah
00:24:54.440
uh but in all seriousness i went on vacation and when i came back it didn't recognize me as the
00:25:01.520
same person because it assumes when you step on it uh-huh like you're just like okay well this
00:25:08.500
person weighs 100 pounds and now they're 102 so it must be that person it like categorized like my
00:25:13.820
my kid when zach steps on it he's like what 50 pounds and then he's 52 and it knows it's zach
00:25:19.480
i gained so much weight that it was like who's this person who the hell is this really and then
00:25:24.600
i swear and i don't know about this part of it but then i brought it home and on the day i flew back
00:25:28.580
from the airport i put my iphone up to my face and it would not do the face id i'm like did i get so
00:25:34.360
fat my iphone can't recognize me anymore is that possible i have i have the face recognition thing
00:25:40.620
yeah it won't ever recognize my face i like hold it up this camera is covered i'm like amber's not
00:25:46.500
covered doesn't recognize face i'm like it's me it's me oh wait that's your face covering the
00:25:54.120
camera that's right it could be the same problem it could be i mean it's just it's it's just
00:26:00.740
ridiculous you know and i was thinking today about how the mark of the you know i get up and take a
00:26:06.960
shower and i'm thinking about the mark of the beast obviously i was actually thinking about
00:26:09.960
technology which led me to the elon musk thing uh and would i take that would i want my daughter to
00:26:15.940
have that because she's a can she'll be a candidate for that yeah um and it will change her and then i
00:26:22.480
thought look at the benefits of that and then that's where i started the mark of the beast i'm
00:26:28.740
like inject it into your head no that's not forehead so it probably wouldn't be that and then
00:26:34.560
i started thinking about the people in sweden that are putting it underneath their hand right now
00:26:39.200
there's 4 000 people now that have put that little grain of rice thing that gives you access to
00:26:44.020
everything you don't have to have id you don't have to have money blah blah blah blah blah and i
00:26:49.540
thought you know i remember saying there's no way i'm going to give the government my fingerprints
00:26:57.200
never will i give the government my fingerprints i'm going this week to or next week to the uh
00:27:05.560
department of homeland security or whatever it is to get global pass oh global entry yeah global
00:27:10.880
entry where you have to give them all your whole hand print oh yeah you know all it's fantastic i'm
00:27:15.140
doing it for i'm yep i want i want the convenience oh it's going to save you a good 20 minutes in that
00:27:20.420
line and that's worth it right isn't that crazy yeah i would have never given the government but now
00:27:26.860
for convenience i will next no remember when we used to talk about face recognition and how bad that is
00:27:34.300
i just gave it to apple oh yeah who we know i mean all these guys are in bed with the government
00:27:41.720
this is not good we know the walls are closing in and we're like yeah let me give you my face print
00:27:47.380
too we're talking a good savings of a half second every time you log in so that adds up when it comes
00:27:53.260
to the mark of the beast and you're implanting a chip because there is no other way to have money
00:27:59.920
right everyone's gonna do it there's gonna be such a small number of people which then brought me to
00:28:06.180
i have got to teach the book of revelation to my children because they didn't grow up with it like
00:28:13.400
i did i mean i went to a catholic school they were like and the devil is coming maybe tonight
00:28:18.400
and you're like whoa i'm four why do i have to learn this now now we really need to teach our
00:28:25.540
children about those signs because it could happen how long was this shower
00:28:30.680
i remember like a month that was actually about three minutes no i used to think the same thing
00:28:37.920
because because i remember hearing that story as a kid the whole mark of the beast thing and thinking
00:28:41.920
to myself like wouldn't they just not do that then we if this is if this we all know this is a
00:28:47.660
possibility right right and bad things are associated with it so maybe like right before when they're
00:28:53.180
like oh we're going to inject you everyone would just say well no remember the whole bible thing
00:28:57.080
like we already talked about this we're losing that oh first of all yeah we're losing it yeah and
00:29:01.660
second of all it is we just don't think like it's it overwhelms us in slow spurts right because we
00:29:09.100
assumed that the mark of the beast was going to be represented like all right you have to sign up
00:29:14.060
for this or i'm going to kill you dad we didn't see the convenience factor coming did anybody see that
00:29:21.260
the president was vomiting pea soup and his head was spinning around i don't think we should take
00:29:25.400
this it's not going to be it's not that way it's that hey this technology is great in fact it could
00:29:31.000
save your children if they're ever kidnapped yeah it comes with gps in it and we'll be able to track
00:29:35.280
down your kids and save them try try this out for size um think of uh think of the convenience
00:29:43.760
and and how right now it right now we know that china is closing the doors on their society
00:29:53.640
google is part of it google is part of it we also know all the surveillance technology is being built
00:30:02.700
here in america just not by the state and yet we know that facebook is silencing us we know that
00:30:10.920
facebook is bad for us we know that google is really a dangerous company it is we just keep
00:30:18.760
doing it and we just keep doing it deeper and deeper do you remember the did you watch the you
00:30:23.380
i think you did watch continuum didn't you yes i did which it starts out in 2077 in the future and
00:30:30.340
and then they come back to 2012 through time travel but the point of the future is that corporations
00:30:36.260
have taken over and they are the government and i used to think i used to so ridiculous come on
00:30:41.840
corporations are going to be the government wow are we headed in that direction or what science fiction
00:30:47.660
writers that's i've been reading a lot of science fiction uh lately a lot and i've even gone back to
00:30:53.280
i'm right now i'm just reading uh frankenstein and going back and just seeing what you know why did
00:30:59.400
mary shelley write frankenstein it was what was going on in her life she was really a tortured soul
00:31:05.440
she had lost her daughter i think um really horrible things had happened but she had attended
00:31:12.760
a science uh show if you will uh that showed reanimation and it just showed electricity and how
00:31:22.840
the they took a dead frog attached electrodes to it then you know generated some electricity
00:31:29.500
hit those electrodes and the frog moved okay and so it was her didn't snap back to life and didn't
00:31:36.860
snap back yeah just moved and nobody had ever seen that before and so the idea back then was science
00:31:44.220
might be able to regenerate life okay didn't have that don't have that ability but science the same
00:31:54.740
thing happened with we can create the perfect human back in the 40s and 30s with the nazis it didn't work
00:32:02.760
we now have the technology to do some of these things so man has been going down this road for
00:32:11.760
a very very long time and it and science is just catching up to man's most terrific and horrific dreams
00:32:22.780
and it's here it's really here this time and i don't think we're thinking about it because we're
00:32:29.680
so distracted by oh i got so many likes on facebook yeah and we've just become used to all this stuff i
00:32:37.840
remember when i was in in houston and the toll tag thing was a big deal to houston to texans i'm not
00:32:42.960
getting that because they'll they'll know wherever i am let's see that on the toll they'll know where i am
00:32:48.420
they'll know my name and they'll know all my name and now we give up our information so quickly and so
00:32:52.660
easily we don't even think about it anymore you know and nobody is talking in congress about protecting
00:32:57.500
our information that one of the biggest things that could be done right now and should be done
00:33:02.460
is that you are in charge you are the only owner of any information that that is on you so in other words
00:33:12.140
any facebook or anybody else collecting things you have access to it and you can say
00:33:19.320
dump it it's mine that's me that's part of me it's the way it should be it's the way it should be
00:33:26.300
but we're not demanding it we're allowing people to do profiles on us our spouses don't know us as well
00:33:34.200
as facebook knows us we most likely don't know ourselves as well as facebook knows us and certainly
00:33:42.980
google how much information do they have yeah and you have no access to it that's me that's mine
00:33:49.160
that's part of me we've given it up for free the government needs to say you have no right to that
00:33:56.440
information pat anything in particular on the podcast you want to direct people to today
00:34:00.620
um just pat gray unleashed is a in general because it's all you know it's all just fantastic
00:34:06.900
it's all fantastic all right all right thank you very much
00:34:16.580
hey it's glenn and you're listening to the glenn beck program if you like what you're hearing on
00:34:30.860
this show make sure you check out pat gray unleashed it's available wherever you download
00:34:36.200
your favorite podcasts bill o'reilly is here to uh talk about it with us and as well as all the other
00:34:42.460
things that happened this weekend there's a lot uh revolving around the president but let's start
00:34:46.740
with the let's start with the moon landing bill how are you good can you uh just before we get to
00:34:52.180
that can you spell that boot again no i can't no i can't i really can't thank you can you hold up
00:34:57.220
big cards for back yes please somebody thank you all right so bill you were what 68 when we landed on
00:35:05.740
the moon i was there you were there yeah i was there nobody knew i stowed away yeah on the apollo
00:35:12.660
spacecraft what was what what is your memory of the day that we landed on the moon uh i don't really
00:35:19.560
have too much of a memory of that seriously no i i you know you gotta understand my persona
00:35:26.400
i have trouble putting gas in my car at the self-service yeah you know when i have to put the
00:35:34.400
card in and then the nozzle in and then this button so technology just frightens me um i do remember
00:35:42.900
uh watching it and i'm feeling proud of my country um that was number one uh and number two i just have
00:35:52.400
no idea how they pull this stuff off but wait wait you were like 15 right yeah somewhere in there it was
00:36:01.440
uh in the teenage years which for me were pretty grim i must say i led the league in dopey teenage
00:36:09.940
frolicking um but um obviously this was a big event uh walter croncott i remember i watched his
00:36:18.500
coverage yeah everybody i liked the mustache on walter that's it didn't it didn't have anything to do
00:36:25.020
with his reportage or anything like that um but anyway you're right when you know people don't
00:36:31.080
really understand number one how complicated this is and all you have to do is look at the astronauts
00:36:36.060
who were killed when the uh spacecrafts exploded and all that i mean it's very very dangerous and
00:36:41.400
number two that the technology that is developed along the way um has changed everybody's life
00:36:49.860
life so we wouldn't have the drones and the satellites and uh live shots from here there
00:36:56.300
and everywhere and none of that would be happening unless we had the space situation well they say
00:37:02.820
people say oh you of course look at elon musk what they don't understand is where we were at the time
00:37:10.000
we might have you know we might be on the moon today um maybe maybe but at the time it take it took
00:37:18.640
the entire country to rally around it and quite honestly many of the things that we have now
00:37:25.500
were from the inspiration of the moon program and the dedication of the um uh educators at the time
00:37:35.400
to emphasize the science in young kids to try to get them to say i want to be an astronaut well to be
00:37:43.160
everybody wanted to be an astronaut right you know everybody's running around but the real motivator to
00:37:48.380
go to the moon was to defeat the soviet union correct um that's why uh kennedy uh and and johnson and
00:37:56.000
all these guys they basically put gazillions of dollars into this nasa development because we feared
00:38:02.940
that the soviet union we get space weapons and then they'd be up there and uh the moon would be
00:38:09.020
communist and you know um so the political component really led to the scientific achievement which of
00:38:18.220
course most people don't understand they well why are we doing this why don't we just take that money
00:38:23.060
and rebuild detroit you know that kind of thing um but i think the overarching for 50 years later
00:38:29.960
um is basically your country did this and and your country um is the dominant force in the world
00:38:39.960
then and now you know it's weird bill is proud of that you say that um you know your country did this
00:38:46.380
and i think many americans felt that way they were very proud of of the moon landing and still are
00:38:52.860
i am very proud of what our country did um however the rest of the world it was one of those weird
00:38:57.840
events where the rest of the world yes they knew that it was america that did it but they interpreted
00:39:04.680
it at the time as this wasn't just an american accomplishment this was an accomplishment of
00:39:11.860
mankind because they still viewed america as a place of dreams where anyone could come and accomplish
00:39:20.180
incredible things so they saw it yes as american but it was it was at a higher level and i think
00:39:27.620
that what still is felt by most people is that was not american that was humankind yeah i mean
00:39:36.520
aldrin really was clever in the way he marketed that one small step for man and giant step for mankind
00:39:42.780
okay so um i have no problem with that at all i'm not you know a jingoist or a nationalist or
00:39:51.360
or a chauvinist by about america and i want the world to be proud that human beings were able to
00:39:59.460
accomplish that's that's a good thing right but i also want the world to recognize the nobility of
00:40:05.120
america correct and they don't it doesn't it did at the time it doesn't know but you still had you
00:40:12.120
still had a tremendous cold war situation and you had threats all over the place and expansion of
00:40:19.400
communism and so you did have that back then but you know today um the world watches news coverage from
00:40:26.940
america and the dominant theme is america is terrible yeah well even the even the moon landing the the social
00:40:34.740
justice warriors are saying this was just a white male event and we're not supposed to celebrate it
00:40:42.200
because it's a white male event well i haven't heard that oh yeah no i don't doubt that it's happened yeah
00:40:48.420
i'll give you the stories um but you know it just it folds into the and and this is so fascinating to
00:40:58.740
me because this could never happen without the media's consent and approval it could never happen
00:41:05.400
the four women the radical women in congress nobody would even know who they are if not for the media
00:41:12.600
embracing them and so you know we're going to have individual cranks and loons forever yeah we've always
00:41:19.400
had them but the difference today is the cranks and the loons if they disparage the united states
00:41:26.480
are given a unique platform yeah they are by the new york times and the washington post and the
00:41:32.140
everybody else bc news and it's not yeah and that never happened before other than vietnam now vietnam
00:41:38.020
was very very similar um because it's the crazier you got the more famous you got i.e abby hoffman jerry
00:41:47.020
rubin the chicago seven the black panthers the nuttier you were the more anti-american you were in the
00:41:54.740
late 60s early 70s the more famous you got this is a replay of that that we're seeing now all right
00:42:02.160
i want to talk to you a little bit more about that what happened this week the controversy with
00:42:06.040
donald trump and elon omar and aoc and the quote squad uh when we come back
00:42:11.320
you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program

00:42:48.200
it is the fastest roller coaster ride you've ever been on uh with gavin mcginnis i sit down
00:42:54.600
at a round table with gavin mcginnis you do not want to miss this uh you know you'll you'll see the
00:43:03.540
truth you know he's supposed to hate me i'm supposed to hate him etc etc and all that garbage that was
00:43:08.240
going around judge for yourself uh and uh and don't miss this episode of gavin mcginnis
00:43:14.980

00:43:23.400
time i don't think you should say that uh don't miss it the podcast this weekend get it wherever
00:43:30.240
you find podcasts we're back with mr bill o'reilly um who is about to tell us what he thinks is going
00:43:37.400
to happen in the next debate with the democrats okay um so what i've done on bill o'reilly.com
00:43:46.220
your second favorite website uh to your own um is to basically try to stay ahead of the political
00:43:54.740
story rather than do what cable news does which to me i find incredibly boring all right is just to
00:44:01.280
a contrived reaction to contrived events all right so here's what i think is going to happen
00:44:10.620
in the democratic debate 10 days from now you've got biden holding a fairly significant lead in the
00:44:19.940
polls if you go to real clear politics you got the numbers there so the challengers the legitimate
00:44:26.920
challengers there are only three of them okay there is bernie sanders who's on the fade and he's never
00:44:35.240
in a million years going to get the nomination but he's still in play elizabeth warren who's coming up
00:44:40.640
a little bit and believes that she can get the nomination and then you've got camilla harris
00:44:46.700
who is quietly assembling a pretty powerful team however you've got to knock biden out of the box
00:44:55.520
so they crippled them when i maybe not crippled they hurt him last time around on the busing thing
00:45:02.260
with camilla harris now harris gets another shot at him because harris is going to be on stage with
00:45:07.160
him again i did the cnn thing all right so it's going to be basically bernie against elizabeth in one
00:45:13.620
night and harris against biden in the other night here's how harris is going to go against biden you
00:45:20.180
ready under president obama for eight years there were three million illegal aliens deported
00:45:30.600
in this country three million by contrast two and a half years of trump's 758 000
00:45:37.780
that's biden has already been asked about it and says i have no problem with the three million
00:45:46.200
being deported as everybody knows open borders is a signature of the current democratic party
00:45:54.060
harris has got to go into that precinct to say how dare you how dare you applaud the deportation of
00:46:04.300
three million poor migrants most of whom were fleeing injustice how can you possibly do that
00:46:10.860
that's where harris is going to go um what's her record what's her record in california she was a
00:46:19.500
really doesn't have much of a record as attorney general there because california has never ever
00:46:27.200
since ronald reagan left the governorship ever pursued a hard line against illegal immigration which
00:46:35.020
is why the state now okay is dominated by foreign nationals they've never done it so harris can
00:46:44.740
basically say i didn't persecute anybody i could have but as the da in san francisco i didn't do that
00:46:53.180
and i didn't do that as attorney general california you're the mean guy joe biden you're the anti-immigrant
00:46:59.400
guy okay now that possibly will not happen if the deal is made do you know what the deal is back
00:47:08.780
yes i do all right so let me just restate it the deal is that the biden people will say to the harris
00:47:16.800
people ease up if our guy gets the nomination kamala is going to be vp and he's only going to stay for
00:47:28.000
four years all right and then she takes over she gets the shot at the presidency harris will take that
00:47:35.920
deal because harris probably can't beat biden one-on-one in the primary system because people
00:47:43.920
don't really know her she's radical and her performance at the kavanaugh hearing was a disgrace
00:47:51.760
to our justice system so she probably can't beat him plus harris has a lot of stuff in her background
00:47:59.840
that the press won't report but it will come out and she doesn't want that she doesn't want to be
00:48:08.020
so in that way let me just ask you this because i saw the egos inside campaigns um uh in the last
00:48:17.920
in the last uh campaign and i saw how people that could have made deals didn't make deals because
00:48:26.740
they all just thought i'm gonna win no i'm gonna win and i'm more important than that person and that
00:48:32.420
person doesn't know i mean they they have to be um arrogant enough to run for president and i mean
00:48:39.680
that in a in a not in a pejorative sort of way they have to believe in themselves enough that they
00:48:45.940
are the one to be able to go and do that uh and they don't seem to listen to deal making at least
00:48:53.440
this early in the game um yes there's validity what you say but the polls are the polls and you know
00:49:03.000
harris i don't believe um and i could be wrong obviously i mean there may be a way for her to get
00:49:10.840
some traction but i'm not so sure um and this is a safe bet for her this saves her an awful lot of angst
00:49:20.240
yes it does to make this deal and by don't make this deal in a heartbeat if he feels that this is
00:49:28.280
gonna you know stop the attacks on him which he can't defend how's he gonna defend the deportation of
00:49:35.200
three million migrants to a party that wants open borders how's he gonna do it it's impossible and
00:49:41.500
so you don't think i couldn't do it you don't think warren and sanders alone with uh just harris
00:49:48.380
backing away not defending but you don't think warren and sanders alone could put enough dents
00:49:54.640
into biden americans aren't gonna elect or nominate socialists they're not right okay that's so
00:50:02.100
i'm not saying no i'm not saying that they're gonna i'm not saying that they're gonna win but
00:50:05.400
you don't think that they can put enough dents no look uh sanders is an old white man and that's
00:50:11.980
his problem right now okay so he's white if say if he was a person of color every different story
00:50:17.380
all right um warren is an elderly white woman um that's her problem and the party the democratic
00:50:25.920
party is is basically marketing itself to younger americans and minority americans
00:50:30.820
so it's kamala harris she's not young but she's not old so harris checks off all the boxes yes but
00:50:39.080
can't beat biden in in most of the states do you think she could beat trump kamala harris against trump
00:50:46.380
yes only if trump makes a myriad of mistakes and the economy goes south on them fast um i think harris
00:50:55.460
could probably get on the initial bump about 45 percent of the electorate to even take a look at
00:51:03.440
her that's what that's not bad that's not bad um harris um has far more appeal than sanders or
00:51:13.700
warren because they're so extreme harris plays this kind of game she is an extremist
00:51:20.440
if you really listen to what she is what it is yes she is she doesn't come across that way
00:51:25.920
all right but so harris is the is the threat now you go buddha judge buddha judge very articulate
00:51:32.600
he's going to hang around because why not what else does he have to do all right well really right
00:51:40.120
what else does he have to do yeah i know i mean cnn wants him and he'll go there you'll see him
00:51:46.180
he'll get a show he's not going to be a uh commentator see at&t is going to wipe out everybody
00:51:52.800
at cnn soon because it's such a disaster and buddha judge is going to be on there um you wait
00:51:59.300
and see so wait wait wait let me go back to this because i find this fascinating um you say that cnn
00:52:05.260
they're going to fire everybody there yes i think at&t is going to wipe out the whole squad now i'll use
00:52:11.120
the word squad for them right okay so when you say that it does that mean a total rebrand of cnn
00:52:17.780
i mean how do they re resuscitate this they have to i mean they don't do it by putting buddha judge
00:52:24.500
in there well no you do because buddha judge is very charming and articulate he's not a crazy guy
00:52:29.920
he may be so you're going to fire everybody and then replace him with a whole bunch of other people
00:52:35.140
that are still far left that are more reasonable see they won't fire anderson cooper you can't he's
00:52:42.200
protected okay but you got to get rid of and lemon you can't get rid of either so you got to move them
00:52:49.240
around but you've got to inject some youth and some sensibility and buddha judge whether you like him or
00:52:55.360
not is a very articulate charming guy he is so he's going to be the centerpiece of what at&t tries to do
00:53:02.300
with cnn they're not going to say we're not liberal anymore they're going to say we're going
00:53:06.380
to get back to our roots of reporting that's what they're going to say oh yeah haha um but buddha judge
00:53:12.000
is going to be front and center so it's worth his while to stay in and run around because a right now
00:53:19.060
he didn't have anything to do and b knows he's got the cnn thing in his pocket all right bill o'reilly
