The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Dr. Robert Epstein ｜ 1⧸21⧸22

00:00:00.000 Hey, you want to stop feeling like you're being kicked in the dirt?

00:00:03.600 You want to start feeling good about yourself, America, the future?

00:00:07.680 Today's podcast is for you.

00:00:09.880 Also, the last hour of the podcast is with Dr. Robert Epstein.

00:00:14.320 He is a research psychologist for the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology.

00:00:21.120 He's the guy who's been on with us before that has been studying Google and YouTube and everything

00:00:27.000 and how they manipulate elections.

00:00:29.220 Well, you don't know this, but you paid for this research to happen during the 2020 election.

00:00:37.760 It's already gone to Congress.

00:00:39.780 It actually was used to help in Atlanta.

00:00:46.000 He gives you the whole story.

00:00:47.480 It's amazing.

00:00:48.280 And all because of you.

00:00:50.000 All on today's podcast.

00:00:59.220 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:01:07.060 Oh, golly.

00:01:08.920 It's Friday.

00:01:09.780 Hi, Stu.

00:01:10.800 Glenn, how are you?

00:01:11.620 Oh, my gosh.

00:01:12.600 I am fantastic.

00:01:14.560 Are you?

00:01:15.020 Oh, I am.

00:01:15.640 You know, this should be concerning anybody who listens to this broadcast because I am more

00:01:22.420 clear than I have been in probably at least 10 years.

00:01:26.740 Uh, and I am more optimistic than I've possibly ever been in my life.

00:01:33.840 Oh, that's terrible.

00:01:34.900 That is terrible.

00:01:35.920 Whenever you're optimistic, it means hell for the rest of us.

00:01:38.800 Yeah.

00:01:38.920 It means something is coming.

00:01:41.040 That's really bad.

00:01:41.880 But I am telling you, I see the path to victory and restoration.

00:01:48.400 It's unbelievably clear to me right now.

00:01:51.160 Do we get to hear this path?

00:01:52.420 Oh, yes.

00:01:52.740 You're going to hear it today.

00:01:53.640 Okay.

00:01:53.900 Yeah.

00:01:54.040 You're going to hear it.

00:01:54.620 I'm going to, in hour number two.

00:01:56.800 Okay.

00:01:57.180 Hour number two.

00:01:57.940 I'm going to start laying the path out for you.

00:02:00.640 Tell a friend.

00:02:02.100 If you have somebody who's like really down, go, hey, you might want to tune into the Glenn

00:02:05.920 Beck program because this one I think is going to be good.

00:02:10.020 Okay.

00:02:10.380 So let me just give you some, some really good news.

00:02:13.480 The swimsuit edition from Sports Illustrated.

00:02:16.600 And Stu, when you think of that, what do you think of?

00:02:19.760 Think of a lot of things, Glenn.

00:02:20.920 You do.

00:02:21.620 There's many things over the years I've thought.

00:02:22.960 What would be some of the things that, you know, Neanderthal men might think?

00:02:27.080 Oh, you're talking about those people?

00:02:28.540 Those people.

00:02:29.360 Oh, they might be attracted to the women inside wearing basically no clothing. 0.98

00:02:34.020 In fact, many of the swimsuit pictures didn't feature swimsuits.

00:02:38.580 Really?

00:02:39.020 Which was weird because it just seemed like they were just topless on a beach.

00:02:42.320 Oh, my gosh.

00:02:42.800 So this is the kind of Neanderthal thinking that we, thank God, we hate.

00:02:47.380 We are so far away from that.

00:02:50.320 Thank you.

00:02:50.660 Because we agree with SI that their swimsuit edition has always been a launch pad for progress

00:03:00.400 for all women.

00:03:01.460 And when I saw those pictures, you know, some dirt bags would cut those pictures out and

00:03:08.140 they'd, you know, put them in their locker or whatever.

00:03:10.180 I always thought this is a launch pad for the empowerment of all women.

00:03:17.040 That's what you.

00:03:17.900 That's, of course.

00:03:19.100 That's not what you thought.

00:03:19.940 No, that's what I thought.

00:03:20.900 I just was making sure you also believe the right thing.

00:03:23.720 I know.

00:03:24.160 I thought I was alone.

00:03:26.040 Okay.

00:03:26.440 But now I know that's what Sports Illustrated.

00:03:28.940 That's what they intended the whole time.

00:03:31.660 The launch pad for progress for all women.

00:03:36.200 So now they're going a step further.

00:03:39.100 Now you can only advertise if you have taken the step with them in this journey.

00:03:49.820 They are saying now the only advertisers that will pay with change.

00:03:55.520 So in other words, if you are a company that has already embraced gender equity, advertise

00:04:05.580 because they want you to advertise.

00:04:08.520 But if you haven't proven yourself to be a company that has already had, you know, you

00:04:15.460 built your business as a launch pad for progress for all women, you know, if you haven't done 1.00

00:04:20.400 that yet, you can't advertise. 0.99

00:04:22.180 So if I want to put an ad for my cookie butter company, no, you're not a change to the ass 0.98

00:04:29.060 cheeks in the, yeah, no, I can't. 0.95

00:04:31.560 You got to be a change maker sponsor.

00:04:33.740 Got it.

00:04:34.240 Okay.

00:04:35.240 So if you're a change maker and, and you are part of, or excited that some of your money

00:04:44.040 is going to go to the Sports Illustrated gender equity fund, you got to advertise.

00:04:49.500 Now I'm trying, I have to tell you, I called our advertising department and I said, I know,

00:04:57.160 I know how you all feel about gender fluidity and everything.

00:05:00.780 We are champions of that.

00:05:02.740 Yes, for sure.

00:05:03.660 And I said, can we get our ads into Sports Illustrated?

00:05:08.660 And specifically the swimsuit edition, because I think, I think this is going to make Sports

00:05:19.160 Illustrated and particularly that particular edition into something remarkably big.

00:05:29.540 Oh yeah.

00:05:30.320 I think this is going to turbo.

00:05:33.080 People love it.

00:05:33.980 They love it.

00:05:34.820 It's like, I remember when Playboy made that important decision to not have nudity in their

00:05:39.040 magazine and it really just, it was a rocket ship to the moon after that.

00:05:43.580 Yeah.

00:05:44.420 No, it really, now you said, it sounds to me like you are saying not so.

00:05:49.780 Well, they may have reversed the decision in approximately two months.

00:05:54.340 Okay, so let me ask you this, let me ask you this, will Sports Illustrated finally embrace

00:06:03.720 Alex Alindo?

00:06:06.900 Who?

00:06:07.560 Alex Alindo?

00:06:08.820 Don't pretend you don't know.

00:06:10.480 No, I'm playing the role of the Neanderthal audience that doesn't understand who Alex Alindo 0.85

00:06:15.780 is.

00:06:16.000 That's right.

00:06:16.280 I got, we're talking to a lot of conservative Neanderthals. 0.78

00:06:19.660 They're all out there.

00:06:20.320 They're all conservative.

00:06:21.260 They're driving around trucks.

00:06:23.580 They're farming.

00:06:25.120 I don't know what these people do, but you got to talk down to them, Glenn.

00:06:28.360 Oh, those farmers.

00:06:29.340 Yeah.

00:06:29.580 Oh, man.

00:06:30.600 Aren't you glad that Carhartt just stuck into those people this week?

00:06:34.760 I love it. 0.94

00:06:36.300 Anyway, so she is the world's first Austomate porn star. 1.00

00:06:42.740 She sure is, Glenn.

00:06:43.920 And so, I mean, I thought an Austomate porn star is really where Sports Illustrated should 1.00

00:06:53.240 go because her whole thing is, hey, you have to include everybody in porno films. 1.00

00:07:00.240 And she said, because she's had an ostomy, that she is even sexier than ever.

00:07:08.200 Go ahead.

00:07:10.980 Ask.

00:07:11.500 Please.

00:07:12.280 Please ask.

00:07:13.300 I had to look it up.

00:07:14.540 Please.

00:07:15.140 I don't think I want to ask.

00:07:17.060 I know there's a question.

00:07:18.020 There's a question I want to ask.

00:07:19.480 Ask it.

00:07:20.120 Please ask it.

00:07:20.600 I don't want to ask it.

00:07:22.060 I, I, I, it took me about three minutes because of the circle that Google has become.

00:07:28.660 Okay.

00:07:29.100 So she's the first Austomate. 1.00

00:07:30.820 All right. 0.85

00:07:31.640 What is a porn star? 0.86

00:07:32.580 What is an Austomate porn star? 0.94

00:07:34.600 That's what I asked.

00:07:35.440 Google gave me the answer.

00:07:37.000 Someone who's had an ostomy.

00:07:39.380 Okay.

00:07:39.940 Well, that, that does not help at all.

00:07:41.740 Exactly right.

00:07:42.400 Exactly right.

00:07:43.520 What is an ostomy?

00:07:46.000 Colostomy.

00:07:47.800 Anybody who has had an ostomy has had a hole put in them and a tube for the elimination of

00:07:53.720 waste.

00:07:54.620 So she's the first porn star. 0.98

00:07:56.980 Why would that? 0.80

00:07:57.740 It makes her, she said, it makes her sexier than ever. 0.99

00:08:00.460 However, she's the first porn star with a bag of pee and poop next to her, which I think 1.00

00:08:06.660 is so sexy. 0.99

00:08:09.160 Yeah.

00:08:09.280 Well, you're enlightened.

00:08:10.480 Yeah.

00:08:10.960 I mean, the listen to the show probably don't think that.

00:08:14.280 And I'm thinking SI, if you really are a launch power.

00:08:19.940 Thank you.

00:08:20.380 Launch pad to empower the progress of women. 1.00

00:08:24.220 I want some Austomate models.

00:08:27.320 Austomate swimsuit models.

00:08:29.020 Yes.

00:08:29.340 Yes.

00:08:29.900 Yes.

00:08:30.760 And I think it needs to be, I think we need to stand on this.

00:08:36.640 I will not buy the sports illustrated anything, nor will I contribute to their, their feminist 1.00

00:08:46.320 empowerment fund sham until I have a copy of sports illustrated with an Austomate model in 0.51

00:08:56.720 a swimsuit. 0.96

00:08:57.720 And I want to see the bag of crap on the beach because that's inclusive. 1.00

00:09:03.420 We should reveal too, that, you know, you want people to stand up for this cause. 0.89

00:09:10.060 This is what you had in mind when you were putting together the theme song for this year.

00:09:13.380 Stand up.

00:09:13.860 Stand up.

00:09:14.480 Stand up.

00:09:15.080 Give me that.

00:09:15.680 Give me.

00:09:15.980 Give it to me, sir.

00:09:17.260 Give me the stand up.

00:09:18.720 I mean.

00:09:19.660 Stand up.

00:09:20.180 Yeah.

00:09:20.540 And originally the lyrics were stand up for Austomate porn stars, but we wound up changing

00:09:25.860 it.

00:09:26.120 It was too, well, it was, it was a little clunky and oddly too specific because there are so

00:09:31.920 many other things to stand up for.

00:09:33.420 Like, may I, Mars incorporated the, I'm quoting the company behind the colorful candy coated

00:09:44.160 chocolates announced yesterday, a global commitment to creating a world where everyone feels they

00:09:53.180 belong and society is inclusive.

00:09:57.180 Now, I immediately think, where is the M&M character that has a colostomy bag?

00:10:07.300 There's none.

00:10:08.320 There is none.

00:10:10.060 None.

00:10:10.800 Not one. 0.97

00:10:11.540 Do you know how that porn star feels every time she sees those little M&M's? 0.98

00:10:16.800 Hungry. 0.99

00:10:17.260 The brown one should be an Austomate. 1.00

00:10:21.280 And that too.

00:10:22.760 Yeah.

00:10:23.280 Yeah.

00:10:24.660 Yeah.

00:10:25.540 So.

00:10:27.180 The global commitment to creating a world where everyone feels they belong and society

00:10:35.120 is inclusive as part of their new mission to increase the sense of belonging for 10 million

00:10:42.760 people around the world by 2025.

00:10:46.780 10 million.

00:10:47.620 Why only 10 million?

00:10:49.680 10 million.

00:10:50.600 That's it.

00:10:50.900 I mean, if you were making M&Ms, 10 million seems like kind of a small kind of target.

00:10:55.420 Is it that the entire Austomate population potentially could be, could be, could be. 0.99

00:11:00.960 Thank you, Stu, for being so open-minded and a real thinker.

00:11:05.120 I'm an ally.

00:11:05.780 Thank you.

00:11:06.220 Okay.

00:11:06.460 An Austa ally.

00:11:08.140 Sense of belonging for 10 million people around the world by 2025 is their goal.

00:11:12.560 And their M&M characters, who serve as mascots of sorts for the brand, will now be receiving

00:11:20.300 fresh new looks.

00:11:22.580 For instance, the green M&M, previously seen in ads posing seductively and strutting her 1.00

00:11:29.660 stuff in white go-go boots, will now sport a pair of sneakers.

00:11:35.440 The description for the candy company on the M&M's website said, she enjoys being a hyper

00:11:42.840 woman for my friends. 0.98

00:11:45.300 A hyper woman? 1.00

00:11:46.340 A hyper woman for my friends.

00:11:48.680 I am a little offended, quite honestly, because she's just, she's, could we call her what she

00:11:56.460 is?

00:11:57.040 And that is a menstruator. 0.98

00:11:58.960 Thank you.

00:11:59.920 These weird terms, like women. 0.99

00:12:01.700 These weird women. 1.00

00:12:02.340 Yeah.

00:12:02.720 It is.

00:12:03.220 I don't even know what that is.

00:12:04.940 I don't know what that is, quite honestly.

00:12:07.620 M&M went on to say, I think we all win when we see more women in leading roles.

00:12:14.040 And that's why the green M&M said, quote, I'm happy to take on the part of a supportive

00:12:21.020 friend when they succeed.

00:12:23.580 Isn't that great?

00:12:24.500 Another character, the brown M&M, the one I'm thinking that needs to have the colostomy 1.00

00:12:29.800 bag, described her motto as, not posse, just the boss. 0.52

00:12:36.660 So M&M Mars has said that there is an updated tone of voice that is more inclusive, welcoming,

00:12:42.820 and unifying while remaining rooted in our signature jester, wit, and humor, end quote.

00:12:49.960 Now, I don't know about you, but with all of the issues that people so-called people say

00:12:59.160 that they're dealing with every day, I think the inclusivity of each color of the M&M 1.00

00:13:08.080 is the thing that we should be talking about.

00:13:12.140 Yes.

00:13:12.680 And the more these companies can do this, the more I just want to buy their product.

00:13:20.820 Oh, yeah.

00:13:21.800 No, this is because a lot of times the left says CEOs don't do anything and they don't

00:13:27.380 deserve their money.

00:13:29.200 Yeah.

00:13:29.380 No, are you kidding me?

00:13:30.780 I mean, so now we have the global vice president of M&Ms talking about the individual diverse

00:13:37.920 characteristics of the M&M.

00:13:40.120 First real time they've redesigned these guys since 1941.

00:13:42.900 They are a little out of dates, do it?

00:13:44.520 This is literally a product that is at every store in America, two feet from a cash register

00:13:50.020 and it's chocolate.

00:13:51.120 You don't have to do anything in that job.

00:13:52.560 Right.

00:13:52.760 All you have to do is make sure the things get delivered.

00:13:54.980 Correct.

00:13:55.380 That is it.

00:13:55.780 Correct.

00:13:56.180 You don't have to sell them.

00:13:57.200 You don't have to have commercials.

00:13:58.240 You lied to us the whole time.

00:13:58.900 They do melt in your hand.

00:14:00.280 And they do melt in your hand.

00:14:01.440 They do melt in your hand.

00:14:02.280 So you've already lied to us.

00:14:03.860 All you have to do is just keep making them.

00:14:06.380 Shovel the chocolate into our mouths.

00:14:08.140 That's right.

00:14:08.420 That's all you have to do.

00:14:09.460 That's it.

00:14:10.240 But this goes to the Great Reset.

00:14:14.740 Sports Illustrated.

00:14:16.000 Totally.

00:14:16.660 Says they're only going to accept advertisers who have the S in their ESG.

00:14:25.280 I'm going to give you two other stories that all blow your mind.

00:14:29.640 It's right out of this book, though.

00:14:30.900 I mean, it's not in the book because it hadn't happened yet.

00:14:32.860 But the Sports Illustrated thing is directly out of the book.

00:14:37.060 It's exactly what the book explains is going to happen.

00:14:39.640 Yep.

00:14:39.980 And it's here, gang.

00:14:41.300 It is here.

00:14:42.200 If you haven't gotten the book, get it.

00:14:44.400 Please download the Kindle version now.

00:14:46.580 I mean, this thing is so rare.

00:14:47.840 There might be some individual bookstores that have the book.

00:14:51.080 Call your local bookstore and see if they have it.

00:14:52.980 But probably not.

00:14:54.540 Sold out everywhere.

00:14:56.780 And I can't wait to tell you what we're doing about that.

00:15:02.540 Oh, my gosh.

00:15:06.200 It's kind of crazy.

00:15:07.620 It's kind of crazy.

00:15:09.380 I think you're going to love it.

00:15:11.240 So get the book now.

00:15:14.160 You can order it or get the Kindle book now.

00:15:19.000 But it is a must read.

00:15:20.340 Go to glensnewbook.com and get the Kindle book.

00:15:23.840 Do it now.

00:15:26.980 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:15:29.680 The very unofficial, never even paid for, haven't even talked to the company about a sponsorship.

00:15:39.840 This hour, sponsored by Hank's.

00:15:43.540 Hank's Diet Root Beer.

00:15:46.260 Hank's in many different flavors.

00:15:48.080 Some of them diet.

00:15:48.920 Some of them not.

00:15:50.100 A local brew from Philadelphia.

00:15:53.780 That is what you should be buying for your root beer and your soda.

00:15:58.580 And it's so good, too.

00:15:59.440 Go to hanks.com.

00:16:01.560 Can you look it up real quick?

00:16:02.800 I have no idea.

00:16:03.880 We just drink it here and it's really good.

00:16:07.060 And they're official, unofficial sponsor of the Glenn Beck program.

00:16:11.840 Whether they like it or not.

00:16:15.260 Hank's Beverages.net is the place to go.

00:16:17.720 That's so convenient.

00:16:19.400 Hank's Beverages.net.

00:16:20.600 Hank, you got to change that one.

00:16:23.840 Hank's Beverages.net.

00:16:25.520 Rolls off the tongue.

00:16:27.300 Anyway.

00:16:27.780 Also, not a sponsor of this hour's program, but one that maybe they will go, what the hell is happening?

00:16:38.340 American Giant.

00:16:39.740 Want to say, go to hell, Carhartt? 1.00

00:16:43.100 American Giant. 0.98

00:16:44.260 Bringing the American values that never wear out into clothing.

00:16:49.820 American Giant.

00:16:50.980 Their clothing also never wears out.

00:16:53.980 I just want to start doing business with local people and I want to start doing business with, you know, everybody that we advertise on this program.

00:17:06.240 I know them all personally and most of them.

00:17:10.360 And I mean, it's an amazing thing.

00:17:13.800 If we weren't conservative, there would be a business book about what has happened to the clients of this show.

00:17:22.580 Because so many have started with five people and an idea and they're like, this is our last dollar.

00:17:32.420 I'm like, don't worry, don't worry, I believe in your product, we'll be fine.

00:17:37.460 And they've gone on to sell for, you know, a billion dollars or they're publicly traded companies and everything else.

00:17:42.940 And then once they're publicly traded, then, you know, the board of directors comes in and they're like, we can't have you advertising on a conservative show.

00:17:51.280 But I love our sponsors.

00:17:53.820 I love our sponsors.

00:17:55.120 And we have to strengthen our communities.

00:18:00.820 Let me see.

00:18:01.760 Let's go to, let's go to Corey on line four in Virginia.

00:18:06.240 Hello, Corey.

00:18:08.280 Hi, Glenn.

00:18:09.020 Glenn, you've been talking about the struggle with the different book formats for your new book, The Great Reset.

00:18:13.560 Yes.

00:18:13.860 I was wondering if or when an audio book version of it will be coming in.

00:18:17.540 So I am trying to, I've scheduled tomorrow to begin recording.

00:18:23.120 I was going to do it last week.

00:18:24.120 But if you can tell, I don't know if people can tell.

00:18:27.080 I have really, I have problems with my vocal cords.

00:18:30.940 They can go into paralysis and they do about every couple of years.

00:18:34.840 And then I'm gone for a month.

00:18:36.300 And I'm having a problem with my vocal cords right now.

00:18:40.140 I don't know if you can hear the scratchiness in it.

00:18:41.780 So it's going to take me about 30 hours to record.

00:18:44.680 So I'm just trying to push it off a little bit.

00:18:46.560 But as soon as I feel my vocal cords can handle the weight, I am, I'm reading the book.

00:18:53.660 Well, thank you very much, sir.

00:18:55.060 You're welcome.

00:18:55.620 Thank you, Corey.

00:18:56.240 Bud in Washington.

00:18:58.000 Hello, Bud.

00:19:00.100 Good morning.

00:19:00.840 It's a pleasure.

00:19:01.680 Thank you, sir.

00:19:02.200 I want to say, I want to say that reaching out to local businesses to sell this book is

00:19:07.880 the first step I've heard that I can do something with.

00:19:10.580 It's very powerful.

00:19:12.260 I'm a very big believer that when the big box stores come, especially to the small community,

00:19:17.420 they might create a few jobs.

00:19:19.420 But they're taking away full businesses and the American dream from our neighbors.

00:19:23.720 And if there's anything in the world as free people we can do on the left or the right,

00:19:28.320 it is to go around these giant corporations and put the power and the money back in our

00:19:34.160 communities.

00:19:34.880 If we want that power back, we just quit using those.

00:19:38.140 I'm going to gather up and talk to everybody I know in my community and see if I can't get

00:19:42.580 some people to sell these books.

00:19:44.120 I'm certainly going to buy one as soon as I get home.

00:19:47.000 God bless you.

00:19:47.700 Thank you very much.

00:19:48.500 Bud.

00:19:48.680 Do you own a small business?

00:19:51.180 I do.

00:19:51.820 What do you do?

00:19:53.220 I teach truck drivers, Glenn.

00:19:55.100 And I teach people that are immigrants that are coming from different countries and they

00:19:58.940 get their CDL through me.

00:20:00.920 A lot of them go right out and buy a couple of trucks.

00:20:03.640 They can go right to work hauling freight, making better than a family wage.

00:20:07.780 I know several of them that now have fleets of trucks, but the fuel's going up so much

00:20:12.540 and the giant trucking companies are hauling it for so cheap.

00:20:15.560 It's getting harder and harder and the regulations are piling up.

00:20:19.160 If we can get around those big companies, even the people that I'm training, especially the

00:20:23.800 immigrants that are coming here, it's going to help us all get free and more powerful.

00:20:28.500 Bud, you are exactly right in that you've pretty much summed up the last chapter of the

00:20:33.300 book of The Great Reset.

00:20:35.340 And, you know, when I was talking to my staff yesterday and I'm like, we're going guerrilla.

00:20:39.740 We'll just break it up.

00:20:41.020 Break it up.

00:20:41.800 I mean, you can't stop something if it's duplicated everywhere.

00:20:48.420 I mean, we're just we're just divvy up all of the work instead of doing it at one place

00:20:53.480 and let's go local.

00:20:55.160 And as I'm talking about, I'm like, this is The Great Reset.

00:20:58.960 This how did we not think of this in the first place?

00:21:01.620 This is the solution that we present in the book.

00:21:05.720 And we can demonstrate it now to people.

00:21:08.540 We can get you involved and get you making money, your community making money by printing

00:21:15.380 these and selling them in local bookstores and and bypassing all of the the other.

00:21:23.520 That's what has to happen.

00:21:25.520 And not just for the book, but for everything.

00:21:28.940 Right now, do you know that there are about 600 different products in your in your grocery

00:21:36.140 store?

00:21:36.940 OK, minimum of about 600 different products and different lines.

00:21:43.600 Do you know those 600 products?

00:21:45.600 All those grocery store shelves.

00:21:49.000 Though all of those different brands, everything that's in there.

00:21:53.240 They're pretty much owned by 12 companies.

00:21:57.200 Did you know that we walk in and we think we have such variety and we do.

00:22:01.640 But they gobble everything up.

00:22:05.100 And so we are beholden to 12 companies.

00:22:08.640 So when there's a food chain breakdown, it's because one of the 12 companies, the reason

00:22:14.940 why your meat is so expensive is because we have let the butchers only come from four companies

00:22:23.320 and these four companies, they'll never convince me they're not colluding.

00:22:27.940 I mean, maybe they have psychics at work, so they know exactly what the other people are

00:22:32.660 doing, but they have their own agenda.

00:22:35.180 They are making money hand over fist while our local ranchers are dying.

00:22:41.820 So what's the solution?

00:22:43.920 Well, we could go and vote for somebody in Washington and make sure they break up this monopoly or

00:22:50.500 we can just start our own butcher, local butcher places.

00:22:57.820 So I don't have to ship my cow in Idaho to Denver and sell it in Denver.

00:23:05.500 I can have the butcher there in my own local market, butcher it, and I can sell it to the

00:23:11.920 grocery store or to the butcher shop.

00:23:14.860 Why are we doing this?

00:23:16.700 The one thing we should be learning from COVID that nobody is talking about.

00:23:23.980 We get too much stuff from China, don't you think? 1.00

00:23:29.380 Gosh, all of our drugs.

00:23:31.820 By the way, it was very nice that Nancy Pelosi and the president are buying up and giving away

00:23:38.540 all these N95 masks.

00:23:40.680 I hope you know how they work because all of the directions are in Chinese.

00:23:45.460 Made by the Chinese. 1.00

00:23:48.440 What the hell is wrong with us? 0.98

00:23:51.040 What is wrong with us? 0.74

00:23:53.540 You know what's wrong with us?

00:23:55.480 Nothing.

00:23:57.020 Nothing.

00:23:58.400 We've just been docile.

00:24:01.960 We've just looked for someone else to tell us what the right thing to do is.

00:24:08.340 That's not America.

00:24:09.680 That's the rest of the world.

00:24:10.780 We are the people that we say this is the right thing to do.

00:24:16.680 We've stopped believing that we can, that we even, that we even know the difference between

00:24:22.320 right and wrong.

00:24:24.800 We're letting someone else tell us.

00:24:27.000 Yeah, see that guy who's wearing the bikini swimsuit on the swim team that seems to have 0.98

00:24:33.580 a lot of junk where women don't have junk and he's huge, muscular. 0.97

00:24:41.960 Yeah, that's a dude. 0.99

00:24:43.200 We're not saying that.

00:24:44.660 We're not saying that.

00:24:45.480 We all know it.

00:24:46.200 We all know that our girls are being hurt.

00:24:51.520 They can physically be hurt if it's a physical sport, but they also, hey girl, give up on 0.95

00:24:58.860 your dreams.

00:24:59.780 See that dude?

00:25:01.160 He's built differently than you.

00:25:05.060 Oh no, that's not true.

00:25:07.320 Oh, that's not true.

00:25:08.280 He can menstruate.

00:25:09.080 No, he can't. 1.00

00:25:12.500 You're a racist.

00:25:13.980 No, I'm not.

00:25:14.640 You don't even understand what racism is because you're telling me I should judge people based

00:25:21.880 on the color of their skin.

00:25:23.720 That is racism.

00:25:25.960 Period.

00:25:27.100 You can get all of your scholarly think tanks and professors together and you can make up

00:25:33.360 all kinds of new words and definitions. 1.00

00:25:36.020 You are full of bull crap. 0.99

00:25:39.440 Sorry. 1.00

00:25:40.200 That's what we need to start saying.

00:25:46.580 I don't say that with malice.

00:25:50.160 I'm not saying that to make a make somebody feel bad.

00:25:54.360 I'm just telling you that's the truth and I'm not going to live in America anymore because

00:26:02.780 it's not America.

00:26:04.360 This is not America.

00:26:06.680 Kids.

00:26:07.200 If you happen to be listening to me and you're with your parents right now, I want you to

00:26:12.220 really listen and it may not mean anything to you now, but it will when you get older and

00:26:18.160 I want you to remember that you were with your parent when you heard it and your parent

00:26:23.120 looked at you and said, that's exactly right.

00:26:25.680 This is not America.

00:26:30.960 What you're living in is some sort of fun house distorted mirror of America.

00:26:37.220 This doesn't reflect any reality of who we were and who we are and most importantly, who

00:26:47.420 you will become the one who decides that is you, no matter who tells you, no matter how

00:26:57.920 many times people tell you, oh, well, you can't do that. 0.99

00:27:01.200 You're not smart enough. 0.54

00:27:02.500 You're not rich enough. 0.98

00:27:03.740 You're not, you're too privileged or you're not privileged enough.

00:27:07.440 Oh, these people are standing in your way.

00:27:09.520 So I've got to vote for that person.

00:27:11.280 And then when we get Washington and we get the white house and the Congress, then we're

00:27:16.100 going to, we'll get them and we'll change it back.

00:27:20.160 Those are all lies, all lies.

00:27:24.880 You want to change something?

00:27:27.280 Just believe in yourself.

00:27:29.740 Just believe in the power of you.

00:27:32.820 Just believe in the power of freedom.

00:27:35.500 Just believe in the power of decency and goodness.

00:27:38.880 You know what capitalism is?

00:27:41.480 Capitalism is you getting up in the morning and going, I got a great idea. 1.00

00:27:47.160 You know, I really hate doing this because it's such a pain in the ass. 0.98

00:27:52.420 I just came up with a way so I don't have to do it or it's a much easier thing to do 0.98

00:27:58.600 or it's just a much better way of doing it.

00:28:02.180 That's capitalism.

00:28:03.820 You having an idea.

00:28:05.520 And then the job of the government is to protect your idea to make sure it remains your idea and isn't given to Google because they have more money and bigger attorneys.

00:28:19.940 You're 15 years old.

00:28:22.980 You had an idea.

00:28:24.820 It's your idea.

00:28:26.580 No matter who they can hire, no matter how much they have.

00:28:30.940 That's America.

00:28:32.280 That's the job of the government.

00:28:35.240 Make sure Russia, China doesn't come in and take all of our stuff. 0.98

00:28:42.200 I don't want a war.

00:28:43.720 I just don't want people stealing my stuff and that includes my right.

00:28:49.540 That's the job of the government.

00:28:54.140 The other job, make sure your idea remains your idea.

00:28:59.460 The rest of it is up to you and the rest of the community.

00:29:04.660 And as soon, mark my words, you'll remember this someday.

00:29:07.820 As soon as this country decides, and it's only going to take about 20%.

00:29:15.180 As soon as this country decides, get the hell out of my way.

00:29:20.300 I am so tired of the excuses.

00:29:24.160 As soon as 20% of this country decides, America will magically reappear.

00:29:31.560 And we will write our greatest chapter yet.

00:29:35.820 And you are going to be the author.

00:29:41.360 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:29:52.080 I am so thrilled to have back into the studio, Dr. Robert Epstein, or Epstein,

00:29:58.000 who is the senior researcher, research psychologist that we have had on several times,

00:30:06.680 who looks at Google and YouTube and everything else on manipulation and refresh us.

00:30:15.580 The last time we talked, it was in the run up to the election.

00:30:18.960 Yes.

00:30:19.260 And you needed a buttload of money.

00:30:22.360 Yes.

00:30:22.940 And you said, if we can do this, we can find out if this manipulation is happening.

00:30:28.660 Correct.

00:30:29.480 This audience was the one that stepped up.

00:30:31.500 And I don't remember how much we raised, but you got enough money to do the research.

00:30:37.120 Go ahead.

00:30:37.780 Your viewers, your listeners, your people, okay, I don't know who these people are, but they're amazing.

00:30:45.800 They are.

00:30:46.320 Because they stepped up and they gave donations, more than 7,000 of them gave donations of between $1 and $300,000.

00:30:56.640 Wow.

00:30:57.060 And we got the money that we needed to set up the largest tracking system to track big tech and see what they're showing real voters, literally real voters.

00:31:11.920 We had 1,735 field agents in swing counties in the swing states.

00:31:20.620 And with their permission, we were basically capturing what they saw on their screens.

00:31:25.480 We had an equal mix of liberals, conservatives, moderates, and we preserved a massive amount of information that is normally lost forever.

00:31:38.840 1.5 million ephemeral experiences.

00:31:43.760 Which means it's fleeting.

00:31:45.420 It happens and then it's gone forever.

00:31:47.180 Gone forever.

00:31:47.700 It's not stored.

00:31:48.280 We preserved 1.5 million political ephemeral experiences in these swing counties, in these swing states, content going to real register.

00:32:01.340 These are all registered voters whose identities we kept secret so that these companies never knew who they were.

00:32:08.980 Correct.

00:32:09.660 And over 3 million web pages, and we've spent the last year analyzing the data, but, and we found incredible bias, all that stuff, but also something truly amazing happened.

00:32:23.260 And this is, honestly, Glenn, I smile when I come in here because this is you and your people who did this.

00:32:30.960 So, it makes me so happy.

00:32:32.460 Okay, literally, no one else stepped up.

00:32:35.020 Your people did this.

00:32:36.100 This is amazing.

00:32:37.620 On October 30th, right before the election in 2020, we were seeing such dramatic results, which I'd be happy to share, of course.

00:32:45.200 Yeah, please, yeah.

00:32:45.860 That we decided, and we've never done this before, even though the election is, you know, not for a few days, we went public with some of our initial findings.

00:32:53.300 And I shared them with my contact in Senator Cruz's office, and the next thing that happened was, November 5th, two days after the election, three U.S. senators sent an extremely threatening letter, two-page letter, to the CEO of Google, saying,

00:33:15.040 Epstein's work shows, you did this, and this, and this, and this, and this, you know, and, you know, please explain this.

00:33:22.840 How do you account for this?

00:33:24.580 And guess what happened?

00:33:26.560 What?

00:33:27.700 Google backed down in Georgia.

00:33:31.400 We had over 1,000 field agents in Georgia.

00:33:34.880 Google stayed out of Georgia completely.

00:33:38.980 That is the first time ever anyone has gotten a big test.

00:33:43.880 Well, what this says is, what this says, this is a lesson here.

00:33:47.000 It's a huge lesson for all of us.

00:33:49.720 No laws or regulations are ever, ever going to constrain these companies.

00:33:55.360 And we don't even have leaders, by the way, who are capable of passing such a law.

00:34:00.220 Or even understanding the technology.

00:34:03.700 Well, Cruz does.

00:34:04.500 I mean, you know, there are a few people here and there.

00:34:07.820 But not only that, even if they did pass laws, you can't keep up with tech.

00:34:12.560 Tech is too fast.

00:34:13.880 But you know what we learned from this process, thanks to you?

00:34:17.300 We learned that monitoring systems, monitoring systems, tracking them, doing to them what they do to us and our kids 24 hours a day, tracking them gets them to back off.

00:34:31.580 They have to back off because we're exposing them.

00:34:35.000 And we have massive amounts of data that they can't deny.

00:34:39.000 So this is the solution to protecting our democracy, protecting our kids, protecting our own minds from manipulation by these tech companies.

00:34:51.900 Today's Google and tomorrow's Google is we have to set up a large scale, permanent monitoring system that is self-sustaining.

00:35:00.540 And it's in all 50 U.S. states.

00:35:02.820 It will monitor.

00:35:04.600 It will track.

00:35:05.700 And it will expose.

00:35:06.800 So the key here is how do you keep it neutral?

00:35:11.480 Because I don't care who's running Google or any of these tech companies.

00:35:14.900 It could be all run by conservatives.

00:35:16.860 I don't want them influencing people.

00:35:19.940 Exactly.

00:35:20.680 Oh, it has to be done right.

00:35:22.220 It has to be done with.

00:35:23.740 It has to be bipartisan, nonpartisans.

00:35:26.720 It's got to be, you know, all that bureaucracy, which is you've got to make sure that this monitoring system is run fairly.

00:35:33.520 I would personally would not trust the U.S. government to run it.

00:35:36.380 I wouldn't either.

00:35:37.080 So, you know, because then whoever's in power would control the monitoring.

00:35:41.200 So you want something that is neutral.

00:35:43.760 There are such organizations out there, believe it or not.

00:35:47.280 I mean, you know, there aren't that many, but there are some.

00:35:50.600 And this has to be.

00:35:52.060 I know you.

00:35:52.660 Well, this has to be neutral.

00:35:54.180 It has to be, you know.

00:35:56.000 Okay.

00:35:56.560 So let's go through some of this.

00:35:58.380 By the way, you can get a report.

00:36:00.320 He's offering something really great.

00:36:02.480 If you go to mygoogleresearch.com, you're going to find all of the research you've updated just for this audience.

00:36:10.680 And you'll be able to see all of it.

00:36:12.540 And what do you get?

00:36:13.940 We will send you a digital copy of this book, which I just gave you, which is my congressional testimony from 2019.

00:36:21.980 But I just updated it.

00:36:23.540 And in fact, that is dated yesterday, January 20th.

00:36:26.480 And I updated it with all our new findings from the presidential election 2020, from the Georgia elections, and some of our latest research.

00:36:35.440 We've done breakthrough research in the past year that eclipses everything we've ever done before.

00:36:42.200 We have, at this moment in time, 12 scientific papers under review and four that are in press.

00:36:49.020 So, I mean, we have all kinds of new discoveries.

00:36:51.920 The senior research psychologist at the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology.

00:36:58.580 He's also the former editor-in-chief of Psychology Today magazine, a PhD of Harvard University, 15 books on artificial intelligence, yada, yada, yada.

00:37:08.760 The guy's resume is quite amazing.

00:37:11.960 Dr. Robert Epstein is with us now.

00:37:15.020 And did I say that right?

00:37:16.480 Is it Epstein or Epstein?

00:37:17.420 I keep getting it wrong.

00:37:18.160 I say Epstein.

00:37:19.240 You just think Einstein with an F.

00:37:23.320 Okay.

00:37:24.560 All right.

00:37:25.340 So, tell me what you learned.

00:37:28.520 Okay.

00:37:29.960 There's two kinds of things that we've learned over the past, especially over the past year and a half.

00:37:34.420 I've been doing all this stuff now for over nine years.

00:37:36.460 But last year and a half has just been a windfall.

00:37:39.920 So, in 2020, in the presidential election, the days leading up to the presidential election, we found, as we found in previous elections, considerable liberal bias.

00:37:50.700 Yes, and I am a liberal.

00:37:51.480 A considerable liberal bias on Google search results, possibly sufficient to have shifted more than 6 million votes with no one knowing that it was being done.

00:38:04.260 And except for our monitoring, with no paper trail for authorities to trace.

00:38:09.600 Because, no, it's all ephemeral stuff.

00:38:11.560 So, how would 6 million people have their minds changed?

00:38:16.680 What did you see?

00:38:17.580 Because, if you go back in time, at some point in time, 20% or more of voters are undecided.

00:38:24.760 And depending on the election, in fact, that percentage can be much higher.

00:38:28.060 But if you assume 20% a few months before, and if you assume that Google is stacking the deck on those search results, people trust what's higher.

00:38:38.360 And Google knows that.

00:38:39.640 And if they put content that's higher, that favors one candidate, say Joe Biden, and that makes another candidate look terrible, like Donald Trump, people, the undecided people, those are influenced by that.

00:38:54.160 That's what our experiments show.

00:38:55.600 You can shift up to 80% of undecided voters after just one search if you have biased search results.

00:39:04.560 Because people trust that high-ranking stuff.

00:39:07.880 By the way, we even know why now people have that trust.

00:39:11.880 Because about 86% of the searches that people do online are for simple facts.

00:39:20.340 What is the capital of Texas?

00:39:22.720 I should know that because I'm in Texas right now.

00:39:25.180 Austin, thank you.

00:39:26.980 I was there yesterday.

00:39:27.820 The point is that most of what people search for is for simple facts.

00:39:33.120 And where does the answer turn up?

00:39:35.700 Always at the top.

00:39:36.960 So over and over again, we're like rats in a Skinner box.

00:39:39.960 We're being trained what's at the top is best, what's at the top is truer.

00:39:43.880 We've done experiments to prove this, by the way.

00:39:46.740 And so if you are a company like Google and you have a strong political bias, whether it's conscious or unconscious, it doesn't matter.

00:39:54.800 If you put algorithms out there that boost one candidate or boost one cause, that has no effect on the people with extreme views.

00:40:04.900 You know, people are committed to one position or another.

00:40:07.220 But it has an enormous effect on people who are undecided, uncommitted, really trying to make up their minds.

00:40:14.300 They trust what Google shows them at the top of that list.

00:40:17.880 I just did a podcast yesterday with the FCC commissioner, and we were talking about AI and search results and everything else.

00:40:29.320 And how frightening this is when these companies have so much knowledge about you as an individual.

00:40:36.360 There comes a time, and I think we might be there, where you don't know if you have free will.

00:40:44.560 You don't know if you made that decision or you were kind of pushed and moved gently, slowly into that decision.

00:40:52.640 Oh, I know.

00:40:53.680 I know because I've been doing experiments on this for over nine years.

00:40:57.500 Because I know for sure, because it's not just search results, that's a big one, but search suggestions that are flashed at you as you start to type a search term.

00:41:07.380 I can prove it to you if you have a phone here.

00:41:09.520 You are being manipulated from the very first character that you type into the search bar on Google.

00:41:16.160 Okay.

00:41:16.640 He has got his phone open.

00:41:18.300 Are you at Google.com?

00:41:20.000 I'm about to go to Google.com right now.

00:41:22.000 Because I will prove it to you.

00:41:23.200 Okay.

00:41:23.400 So these search suggestions that they're flashing at you, those aren't to help you.

00:41:28.080 Those are to manipulate you.

00:41:29.720 We've shown in experiments, just by fiddling around with search suggestions, we can turn among undecided voters a 50-50 split into nearly a 90-10 split.

00:41:42.820 Just by manipulating search suggestions, and no one has the slightest idea that they're being manipulated.

00:41:49.920 Good heavens.

00:41:50.980 All right.

00:41:51.360 Well, what does he do?

00:41:51.980 Are you there?

00:41:52.600 Yeah, I'm at Google.

00:41:54.400 And you're at the search box?

00:41:55.660 I am.

00:41:56.180 Type the letter A.

00:41:57.180 A.

00:41:58.780 All right.

00:41:59.380 I've got Amazon.

00:42:00.740 Ooh, amazing.

00:42:01.980 Academy Sports and Outdoors.

00:42:03.620 Amazon Prime.

00:42:04.160 Amazon Prime.

00:42:05.420 Stop right there.

00:42:07.180 Well, that's the most, I mean, that's what people are looking for when it has an A.

00:42:11.400 Yeah, but, oh, sure, sure, sure, sure.

00:42:15.160 But that's what people will think.

00:42:16.360 Well, as it happens, though, call it a coincidence that Amazon happens to be Google's largest advertiser, and Google is the largest single source of traffic to Amazon that there is.

00:42:27.580 It's a business relationship.

00:42:29.080 And if you don't believe me, go to G. 0.97

00:42:30.640 Just type just a G.

00:42:31.940 Erase the A. 1.00

00:42:32.960 Type a G. 1.00

00:42:33.800 All right.

00:42:34.220 I've got Google Translate, Google, Gmail.

00:42:39.300 Oh, what do you know?

00:42:41.420 What do you know?

00:42:42.300 What a shocker.

00:42:43.420 What that tells you is if you're going to start a company, make sure the name does not begin with G.

00:42:47.740 I will say, too, how many people are going to Google.com to search for the word Google?

00:42:52.960 I feel like there's a limited amount of people who would go to Google.com to search for Google.

00:42:58.040 Yeah, if you know Google already.

00:43:00.520 What do you mean?

00:43:01.100 Right.

00:43:01.220 Okay, but it's not just the search suggestions.

00:43:03.480 It's those answer boxes now that they show you all the time.

00:43:07.120 Yes.

00:43:07.540 Okay, we have incredible new research just on the answer boxes.

00:43:12.780 The answer box alone, it stops people from looking down at the search results.

00:43:19.280 They literally don't go down there.

00:43:21.640 It's so funny because it does the opposite to me.

00:43:24.320 It really does.

00:43:26.100 These answer boxes will come up and I'll be like, well, who the hell are you to tell?

00:43:30.580 You know what I mean?

00:43:31.200 And I go back down and I'm searching.

00:43:33.740 You do this for a living, though.

00:43:34.740 Yeah, but I do it for a living.

00:43:35.640 The average person, I don't think, reacts that way.

00:43:37.480 No, people are lazy and people are trusting, especially of Google.

00:43:42.780 It's such a cool name.

00:43:44.340 It's got to be good.

00:43:45.360 And you know what?

00:43:46.720 The answer box alone can produce a 38% shift in the opinions and thinking of people who

00:43:54.620 are undecided and not just on election issues, but on anything.

00:43:58.940 So take that a step further.

00:44:00.780 Now is where it gets scary.

00:44:03.060 I don't know.

00:44:04.240 I'm already a little unnerved.

00:44:06.500 I've hardly got going here because take that a step further.

00:44:11.120 He sounded, excuse me, but he sounded a little like Vassini there, didn't he, for the Princess

00:44:15.600 Friday?

00:44:16.360 Oh, no.

00:44:17.380 I haven't even begun.

00:44:19.240 One of my favorite movies.

00:44:20.880 I've seen it 10 times with my kids.

00:44:22.520 Anyway.

00:44:23.540 So answers.

00:44:25.240 It gives you an answer, right?

00:44:27.180 Now we call this new effect the answer bot effect because what else gives you just the

00:44:32.480 answer?

00:44:33.800 Well, your phone, your iPad, these devices that are called personal assistants.

00:44:43.100 All of these personal assistants, like Amazon's Alexa, like the Google Home device, which they

00:44:49.520 try to have you put in every single room in your house.

00:44:52.040 These are answer bots.

00:44:55.540 And when you ask a question, it only gives you one answer.

00:44:59.100 And now we have shown in controlled experiments that with one single question and answer sequence,

00:45:06.600 we can produce more than a 40% shift in the voting preferences of a group of undecided voters.

00:45:14.240 And if we give them the same kind of biased answer over and over again, we can produce

00:45:20.220 over a 65% shift in the voting preferences of undecided voters.

00:45:25.880 And none of this, if it wasn't for your research and, you know, this audience raising the money

00:45:31.120 to be able to track it, none of this would have been provable.

00:45:34.420 Correct.

00:45:35.220 It's just a theory.

00:45:36.600 It all would have been theory.

00:45:37.960 So how do they do that without leaving a trail?

00:45:41.160 Well, the algorithm has to be, I mean, proprietary, but it's, the algorithm is worthless.

00:45:50.300 You can't use the algorithm to go back in time and find out what ephemeral stuff they

00:45:55.580 were showing you or your kids.

00:45:57.120 It's impossible.

00:45:58.260 And they know that.

00:45:59.860 And that is why there was a leak from, of Google emails to the Wall Street Journal.

00:46:04.880 And one of the, the email said, it's one Googler talking to other Googlers.

00:46:12.820 And it said, how can we use ephemeral experiences to change people's views about Trump's travel

00:46:19.280 ban?

00:46:20.100 They know this.

00:46:21.840 They know that ephemeral experiences, except for what I do, cannot be tracked.

00:46:26.620 You want the full report on what, you know, you want to talk about a rigged election, as

00:46:32.960 we got another one coming.

00:46:34.840 Just go to mygoogleresearch.com, mygoogleresearch.com.

00:46:40.960 You'll get a free PDF of the, of the, of the booklet, Google's Triple Threat to Democracy,

00:46:47.980 Our Children, and Our Minds.

00:46:49.760 Na, na, na, na, na.
