The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Michael Shellenberger ｜ 4⧸11⧸22

00:00:00.000 okay really all we have to say here is you have to meet niblick niblick is the the president

00:00:08.020 sherpa guide well i'm just listen to the podcast you'll hear it develop as you go

00:00:13.780 blaze tv.com slash glenn is the place to go to get your blaze tv subscription uh the promo code glenn

00:00:19.080 will save you 10 bucks this wednesday is a glenn tv show where we'll seriously be looking

00:00:24.320 at the president's mental health and what this means for the country oh i was

00:00:29.920 hiking in the himalayas with mao and niblick was showing us the ropes so to speak

00:00:38.320 you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program

00:00:49.740 all right so could we just i just i know this came out on friday but we haven't had a chance

00:00:59.580 to chat about it could you play that again please from the president friday america is a nation that

00:01:06.480 can be defined in a single word a single word i was in the foot him uh foot foot excuse me the

00:01:12.480 foothills of the himalayas xi jinping traveling with them and that's from travel 17 000 miles

00:01:19.260 when i was vice president i don't know that for a fact

00:01:21.520 i mean do i need to say anything i mean this should be very very clear it's a long word a lot

00:01:32.740 of hyphens which which word oh that word that describes america yeah yeah that single hmm um i

00:01:41.720 don't know what that single word has to do with the himalayas um you know i i wish we would have

00:01:49.040 heard a little bit more about his sherpa guide uh but uh nothing says america more than the

00:01:55.360 himalayas right that's what i was yeah and maybe he got to it later maybe he's like he did get to a

00:02:00.840 sherpa guide niblick and uh there's one word that describes america and that is niblick uh anyway

00:02:12.420 that would be more coherent than we got it would it would he he helped me shimmy down ropes uh anyway

00:02:21.220 um uh i don't know what the himalayas has to do with it i don't know what the 17 000 miles has to

00:02:28.140 do with it um but the other really disturbing thing besides not telling us the word uh and seemingly not

00:02:36.120 being able to find the word uh uh uh foot uh uh foothills that's disturbing um the other is the the last

00:02:50.640 sentence there i i don't i i don't know that for a fact you you don't know what for a fact that you

00:03:01.400 toured the foothills or you traveled 17 000 miles and when has not knowing the facts ever stopped you

00:03:08.680 what the hell is that sincerely what is that you know he's always off to you know my mother was 0.77

00:03:16.520 amelia erhart no no she wasn't and now he gets down to 17 000 miles but i don't know that for a fact

00:03:25.360 what there's just it strikes me that there are several conversations going on in his head that

00:03:33.480 he i think he's following but yes yes like aren't audible to others so when he said i don't know that

00:03:41.420 for a fact i honestly think that was something he was thinking while he was thinking about niblick

00:03:48.220 right you know what i mean right like i don't know that for a fact and it just came out is it possible

00:03:54.620 the sherpas talking to him in his mind could be and he's responding to a very legitimate like that

00:04:00.300 could be a really good answer to what niblick said we just don't know what it is what niblick was like

00:04:04.840 do you know that for a fact i don't know that for a fact that might have been that might have been it

00:04:09.620 like to him he can't understand why everyone's criticizing right him all the time because he's

00:04:17.900 having a full conversation that makes perfect sense yeah niblick is like are you wearing your

00:04:23.160 mountain climbing shoes i don't know that for a fact right i don't know to him it makes perfect

00:04:28.780 sense as he's saying i've got one word to describe america he's niblick is saying to him have you ever

00:04:35.180 been to the himalayas yes no it makes sense right right like someone interrupted him with a side

00:04:42.000 conversation and he was just trying to be polite i do believe however we should have someone

00:04:50.140 qualified uh qualified to ask the president if he is talking to niblick because if he is talking to

00:05:00.520 niblick i don't know if niblick likes buttons you know i don't know i haven't met niblick okay i don't i

00:05:10.260 don't know niblick he might know him very well but i don't i didn't vote for niblick and if niblick is

00:05:17.920 influencing our president we should all know it don't you think we should know that yes that is

00:05:24.100 something i mean look i don't want to be a hater but if the president does have an invisible

00:05:29.940 sherpa we should know it i'm pretty sure that's in the constitution if it's not our founders did not

00:05:37.820 foresee right what was going to happen we can just you know 25th amendment part b yeah you know

00:05:45.300 what i mean yeah no niblicks right no invisible sherpas right the sherpas if a president is going

00:05:51.700 to have a sherpa it should be visible to the people yeah that's a very i think so too yeah you know and

00:05:56.580 it might be weird if you're you know you're walking around with a with a sherpa guide but that would

00:06:02.740 have been weird would not be weirder than what we just heard i feel like the constitution handles

00:06:09.080 the visible sherpa fairly well right we can understand that now if i remember right uh they

00:06:15.260 were saying about uh donald trump when he used two hands to drink water he's out of control he doesn't

00:06:22.740 know what he's doing 25th amendment everybody in the cabinet is freaking out yeah well i think that this

00:06:30.940 president thinks niblick is in the cabinet and i mean the kitchen cabinet we probably should check

00:06:39.460 it could be there i wouldn't would you be stunned if there was a sherpa living in one of his cabinets

00:06:45.680 no i wouldn't be stunned by it would you on then i mean this sincerely would you be stunned if he's in

00:06:51.140 the middle of a speech and he just looks down to somebody about four feet tall that isn't there and

00:06:56.340 says stop it niblick i'm talking would you be surprised no that's a problem oh my god it's a

00:07:05.160 problem i wouldn't be surprised at all no you wouldn't be i mean i feel like we come on the

00:07:09.440 next day and there'd be like joy reed would be like if you criticize niblick you're you're anti-asian

00:07:16.980 that's what you are 0.89

00:07:18.380 the white privilege of not having an invisible sherpa 0.55

00:07:24.380 that's really what would happen oh my gosh you know it would yeah you know it would that's a

00:07:32.820 that's incredible and you say it and i i really could picture something like that happening like

00:07:38.220 him just really invent it like it would not be stunning at this point for him to blurt out something

00:07:44.320 like you know niblick and

00:07:46.940 niblick the invisible sherpa and it's possible i think if he did it you'd have oh come on i mean

00:07:56.920 he just it was a joke oh come on hey come on he was he got a little confused they would justify it

00:08:04.340 they would legitimately justify it as if it was no big deal that the leader of the free world had an

00:08:10.740 invisible sherpa living in his cabinet i think we should get a hold of niblick at some point today

00:08:15.780 i think we should call niblick i mean if we can i don't know you know he's talking to biden i don't

00:08:21.460 see why he wouldn't pick up the phone niblick why wouldn't we why wouldn't we be able to do that

00:08:26.040 uh holy cow no siri and now can i have serious really seriously when are we gonna just say okay

00:08:35.520 when are democrats going to join the rest of the world when when is someone overseas gonna go come

00:08:42.840 on america well really they they're probably already doing it i would assume people like

00:08:47.380 anthony blinken are getting calls being like what is going on over there dude like what is happening

00:08:51.680 with you what what is going on and blink it's like oh no no he's oh oh i see what you're saying no

00:08:58.520 he's fine and you are doing anti-asian i do think that's probably going on already but i can i can

00:09:05.240 give you a quick preview of this decision uh it's not happening until 2022 uh the election until that's

00:09:11.840 over he they will prop him up and fill him with air and inflate him around like a balloon and walk

00:09:18.580 him around like a you know weekend with bernie's situation no matter what state he is in i'm not sure

00:09:25.240 that's true have you seen the latest you've seen the latest from the new york post today on

00:09:30.420 on uh hunter biden but again it's they have to get they lose the senate they lose the senate if they

00:09:40.260 if they move him out of there right now they're gonna lose the senate anyway i think i know but why

00:09:46.620 lose it a day earlier than you have to they're going to lose it anyway so they're gonna maximize

00:09:50.880 this time frame i mean if there's you i mean there's a moment where they're really going to

00:09:55.180 do this it's right it's early 2023 that is the because then you have enough of an on-ramp to give

00:10:00.900 kamala i guess a shot to to turn this into something what are you going to do you can't replace her

00:10:05.720 with anybody you put if if she became the vice president who would you put as her vice president

00:10:11.740 she can't appoint anybody seriously i mean if she appoints somebody with half a brain cell still

00:10:18.600 working you know she could appoint cheech and chong and i would still say to her hey don't don't walk 1.00

00:10:26.240 by any open windows you know what i'm saying you'd know who's always behind you by an open window

00:10:31.640 i mean who can she appoint seriously because she can't be president of the united states

00:10:40.900 why is because she's a because she has south asian heritage and she doesn't have a sherpa 1.00

00:10:47.480 ah i want to know who her you know that's what we should ask who is biden's sherpa

00:10:53.780 which sherpa is actually running the white house

00:10:58.020 you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program

00:11:04.460 michael schellenberger how are you sir hey great to be with you glenn

00:11:17.140 thank you um so michael um running for the governor uh of california you've been there before you did

00:11:26.560 this what four years ago maybe i did we we ran in 2018 didn't really take off then i know so much

00:11:34.900 more now and i'm absolutely you know heartbroken by the humanitarian disaster that we call homelessness

00:11:40.540 our schools are failing we're in the worst energy crisis that was created by bad policy

00:11:47.300 so i'm running again we've got a big movement behind us i think we've got a good chance this time

00:11:52.280 i i really hope so i mean michael i'm sure we don't agree on an awful lot of things but at least

00:11:58.840 you're willing to look at facts and figures and see if that makes sense nobody is seemingly willing

00:12:07.260 to do that anymore for instance california just passed a a law that is going to make the supply chain

00:12:15.740 problem even worse uh they are they're passing regulation on truck and buses and you've got all

00:12:25.040 of these trucking companies that are being told now by the state i think you have what until next year

00:12:30.880 to replace your truck otherwise if you don't buy a new one with all this stuff on it uh you can't use

00:12:38.620 it in california well who can afford a 300 000 semi truck at the drop of a hat let alone a whole bunch

00:12:46.880 of them if you have a fleet that's right i mean the problem in california is that the governor is

00:12:53.620 controlled by a small group of people who benefit from these anti-human pro-scarcity policies the truth

00:13:02.800 is california is rich in land housing energy water but the governor's people governor gavin newsom they

00:13:12.380 try they keep things scarce in order to make money off of ordinary people so when i'm governor we're

00:13:19.940 going to make energy abundant we should have abundant energy transportation should be cheap housing should

00:13:25.160 be cheap i know how to do that we can do that but it's it's it's it's a it's a pro-human

00:13:31.280 environmentalism not an anti-human environmentalism so how are you going to get around all of these

00:13:37.400 people that are making so much money uh going the other direction i mean you know you've got esg you're

00:13:44.480 facing soon uh how are you going to get and turn the tide on this i mean the exciting thing is that the

00:13:51.460 vast majority of people will benefit from more abundant cheaper energy housing water i mean i'll give

00:13:58.620 you an example we've just been a fight between farmers environmentalists and residents for 50

00:14:04.820 years over water but we should have abundant water we've actually had a we agreed to spend billions of

00:14:11.500 dollars to store more water the governor has blocked those projects on behalf of his you know a very well

00:14:20.340 funded group of people i'm going to build those projects i already have a mandate to do so we can also

00:14:25.300 recycle water and we can desalinate water the israelis export fresh drinking water because of

00:14:33.600 their desalination program even they live in such an arid environment california should be doing the 0.99

00:14:38.520 same we should be a world leader in desalination the key is abundant energy i'm going to make energy

00:14:44.860 abundant again in california and that's the key to ending this insane war over water so when you say

00:14:52.060 you have a plan for energy i know you're an environmentalist um but you are not you're not

00:14:59.320 crazy when i hear washington state say they're taking all gasoline engines off the road or at least to be

00:15:07.680 sold by 2030 that you can't plug that many cars into the power grid without having brownouts so what are

00:15:19.560 you going to do about energy the difference between the kind of environmentalist i am i'm a pro-human

00:15:26.640 pro-abundance environmentalists the people in power the people who created the worst energy crisis in 50

00:15:35.120 years we're in the midst of the worst energy crisis globally in 50 years it was actually going on before

00:15:41.460 putin invaded ukraine he was only able to invade ukraine because europe became dependent on russia

00:15:48.580 for imported energy i've been going to europe for the last five years six years warning them they

00:15:54.760 needed to produce more of their energy they need to keep their nuclear plants operating they needed to

00:16:00.420 rely more on american-made natural gas instead they became dependent on putin so they were helpless to

00:16:06.440 deter an invasion california is now as helpless as europe is on and is on russia we import 30 of our

00:16:16.240 electricity it's a it's ridiculous abundant natural gas is the key to environmental quality and energy

00:16:23.620 security and yet anti-human environmentalists are blocking natural gas production and trying to shut down

00:16:29.860 our nuclear plant i i will i i'll tell you if uh if some of these states around you wanted to cut california off

00:16:37.760 they could cripple you just like russia uh is crippling ukraine and europe they could cut you off because 0.68

00:16:45.200 you're not you're not willing to in california you're not willing to have a coal fire plant or anything else

00:16:51.000 so you ship all that energy in it's it's like saying you know we're the united states we don't torture

00:16:57.580 we're just going to ghost plane people to egypt that's immoral that's right well if you if you go

00:17:06.100 to people want to they can find out at shellenberger for governor.com i describe how we're going to make

00:17:11.440 energy abundant and secure in california governor gavin newsom has made us dangerously vulnerable

00:17:19.700 to blackouts he says he cares about the environment glenn he lifted the air pollution regulations

00:17:27.060 against burning diesel because we were that close to having widespread blackouts because of his

00:17:33.920 policies restricting energy consumption on behalf of a tiny cabal of ruling class political elites

00:17:41.660 i'm going to stand up to them i'm organizing a movement of ordinary folks look most industries here

00:17:49.040 in california high tech agriculture entertainment these are industries that depend on abundant energy

00:17:56.420 they don't want to have their energy their their life the life the life blood that runs through the

00:18:03.060 entire economy strangled by a tiny group of billionaires making money on the backs of ordinary

00:18:10.340 people and that's how we're going to get it done what do you think of the teachers unions and the you know

00:18:15.400 the restrictions her masks and the teaching of you know um transgenderism you know in first grade

00:18:23.020 kindergarten what do you think of those things i mean look you know my parents were public school

00:18:29.320 teachers my mom was a union rep i you know i i think great i benefited from great teachers from

00:18:35.940 personalized education but nobody hates a bad teacher more than a good teacher my parents would be the first

00:18:42.520 to tell you that the teachers union went way too far in california my daughter 16 they kept these kids

00:18:49.580 home for a ridiculous amount of time under gavin newsom california schools became for the adults who run

00:18:57.520 them rather than for the students who need them we're going to build a consensus around much greater parental

00:19:05.280 choice and control over their children's education kids need to get the right education for

00:19:12.500 them and the teachers they've just some of them have just gone bonkers i think it's a minority of

00:19:17.920 them by the way that are pushing a doctrinaire ideological very far radical left agenda as you

00:19:25.800 mentioned my my views are pretty moderately liberal but the things that they're doing glenn one-third of

00:19:32.880 our public school students are not proficient in math half are not proficient in reading 10 percent of

00:19:40.680 african-american students are not proficient in or 10 of african-american students are proficient in

00:19:46.200 math 15 of latina students these are civilization destroying numbers you should not be teaching woke 1.00

00:19:54.540 radical left doctrinaire frankly pseudoscience when your kids can't even pass the math and reading tests

00:20:04.860 we're going to make a big change there the key is greater parental choice and control of their

00:20:10.340 kids education so kids can get the education that's right for them how much do you know about the great

00:20:14.520 reset and esg standards i mean if anybody googles me online they'll know that i actually once recorded

00:20:22.740 an interview for the world economic forum uh you know you know that i came from the the progressive

00:20:29.640 left i know and i've written two books now apocalypse never in san francisco that really go through the

00:20:36.100 evidence what should we what's true what's not true climate change is real it's not the end of the

00:20:42.280 world we've made huge progress the united states reduced its carbon emissions more than any other

00:20:46.960 country in the world between 2005 and 2020 thanks to abundant natural gas thanks to nuclear power

00:20:55.600 europe and the united states have reduced our emissions europe really did since the since the

00:21:00.500 mid-70s the world economic forum is controlled by big bankers by the same pro-scarcity billionaires

00:21:08.400 it's a grift it's a scam they want to keep energy and resources including housing they want everybody to be

00:21:16.080 a renter as you know they don't want people to own their own homes it's a scam it's a scam for them to

00:21:22.840 exert greater control over people's lives prosperity is the key prosperity and abundance are the keys

00:21:29.120 to human freedom to human potential to human well-being it's a very dangerous moment i mean we

00:21:36.960 look at look at they they created a world energy crisis they're trying to create worsening energy

00:21:43.240 scarcity in california california is where the change is going to start in my view we're gaining

00:21:49.820 momentum it's an open primary i'm a no party preference candidate i draw support in equal share

00:21:56.700 it's quite remarkable from republicans democrats independents because my vision is common sense

00:22:02.200 it's to enforce the laws require people to stay in shelter you can't allow open air drug scenes open

00:22:10.900 air drug markets we're going to shut them down this guy is more greater choice michael you are you sound

00:22:15.680 more conservative than mitt romney i mean i would have a much easier time i wouldn't even think twice

00:22:22.020 if it was between you and mitt romney um are you how is this going to work with californians who are

00:22:30.320 deep progressives do you do you feel there is enough of a momentum that you can get republicans uh that

00:22:40.020 you know want change on to your side and still be able to get democrats you know here's the thing

00:22:49.080 all the progressives almost all the liberals and progressives i speak to they want to feel safe

00:22:55.160 they don't feel safe right now the people i talk to they say i'm a very liberal person but

00:23:00.380 i don't feel safe yeah people are terrified as they should be of skyrocketing crime in california

00:23:09.120 the lawlessness the anti-police protest means that there's 500 fewer police that they need

00:23:15.160 in los angeles 500 fewer police in san francisco my progressive neighbors i live in the berkeley hills

00:23:21.240 i live in one of the most progressive cities they want law and order and there's other things too that

00:23:26.320 i'm going to do that that don't easily categorize we need a statewide psychiatric and addiction care

00:23:33.400 conservatives that i talk to understand that people with schizophrenia are now they're shopping

00:23:39.500 for the market for health insurance people with psych people with schizophrenia they're going to

00:23:45.020 they're mentally often are mentally disabled they're going to need lifelong care that's a liberal view i 0.95

00:23:50.140 hold i still hold i believe that we must shelter all of our fellow humans it would be immoral to not

00:23:57.700 shelter them that doesn't mean that they deserve their own house or their own subsidized apartment 0.90

00:24:03.020 in venice beach or san francisco we can't afford that and that's not fair but universal shelter

00:24:09.740 is fair housing should be earned if we're going to be helping folks they need to they need to

00:24:16.980 reciprocate by working hard you know we we are this governor has done such a terrible job managing our

00:24:23.840 forests they go up into flames every year they need to be managed well with prescribed burns amen managed

00:24:31.640 cutting and that means that and traditionally that that means that we can use people that have been

00:24:36.380 convicted of crimes people who are in rehab we need more people working in our forests that's a great job

00:24:42.520 for folks who are recovering from addiction who are recovering from homelessness and who are paying

00:24:47.880 back the debt they owe society michael schellenberger is his name he is running for governor um as a

00:24:55.800 independent no npp is what they're called no party preference uh schellenberg for schellenberger for

00:25:02.460 governor.com schellenberger for governor.com michael as always thank you good luck thanks glenn thanks for

00:26:44.580 out of stock by mid-march um date assembly which tracks baby formula stock at 11 000 retailers they

00:26:54.240 say this is a shocking number you don't see it now for other categories we've been tracking it over time

00:27:00.400 it's going up dramatically we see this category is being affected by economic conditions more

00:27:05.980 dramatically than others the second largest pharmacy walgreens greens with over 9 000 locations

00:27:13.480 announced it's now rationing baby formula guys we haven't even started yet rationing baby formula

00:27:22.320 and they say it is because there was a recall in january uh but also uh vital ingredients we can't get

00:27:30.500 packaging apparently has problems the freight costs are through the roof and labor shortages

00:27:37.380 it's incredible a friend of mine had a a baby boy preemie i think 24 or 25 weeks early enough that it

00:27:44.860 was like almost impossible yeah uh you know 20 years ago wouldn't have been possible right and touch and

00:27:51.220 go for a while lived at the hospital for six months i think finally came home and they have to feed him

00:27:58.580 this very specific type of formula that's easy for him to digest i guess and they had they were they had

00:28:04.680 months of this formula at their house and then that's this recall happened they had to throw it all

00:28:10.540 out oh my gosh and now they spent half their time driving around texas looking to different walgreens

00:28:17.180 and cvs is hoping to find one canister of this stuff imagine how frightening that would be if your child

00:28:22.840 could not be breastfed that would be adopted babies uh you know mothers with with some sort of a 0.99

00:28:46.180 whether they can feed their kid or not this is going to get worse guys and i think you're right

00:29:55.400 approaching eight months and we should point out it's eight months since i officially placed the

00:30:00.400 order so i went through a very lengthy process of you know right debating it and going back and forth

00:30:06.200 and finally placed the order that was over seven months ago and because your car is like 10 years

00:30:12.060 old or something and it's yeah it's it was a it's a 2000 yeah we brought it in 2011 i think 11 so i

00:30:17.000 mean it's almost you know it's coming up on 11 years you don't flip cars all the time no and i like

00:30:21.540 the car that i had so i just kept it and now we're at 120 000 miles on it now i know it could

00:30:25.820 ride a little bit longer but you know i am i am thinking about every time i get in the car i'm like

00:30:29.580 this is like the transmission is going to lock up today isn't it yeah you know something's going to

00:30:33.260 happen where i get no value out of the car at the end or i'm going to have to spend you're really ahead

00:30:38.600 of the game really in some ways you know almost eight months ago yeah i wish i kind of went

00:30:44.640 earlier because maybe i would have had the the car delivered already but so i then decided you

00:30:51.400 know what i'm going to go with an interim car i'm going to get a new car that's not exactly what i

00:30:55.220 want um that's not the one i ordered because i had i want to get something yeah cases in case this

00:31:02.420 thing dies yeah and um but you know it's running great so i mean it should last for a long a long time

00:31:08.140 anyway hopefully but the uh right as i'm ordering that one which is supposed to come in today wow

00:31:14.920 by the way today yeah we'll see a couple weeks uh it was a couple weeks ago i did it and then

00:31:19.980 right as i like three or four days ago i got an email from the first dealership and said

00:31:24.100 your order was just pulled for production so i said what does that mean and she said we should

00:31:30.640 have a target production date within 30 days oh my gosh so that doesn't mean i get the car within 30

00:31:41.140 days it means we should have a target what a target production date i don't i mean this is the life

00:31:48.800 we're all going to be living now this is the life we're all going to be living because i keep thinking

00:31:52.660 about how bad my my situation is and it's bad you know i mean from the perspective of like this is

00:31:59.300 america yeah right like i order a freaking car it's not bad i mean we're not playing a violin for

00:32:03.360 you but it's they're supposed to be yeah knocking at my door every hour of the day to make me buy a

00:32:09.940 car that's remember the car salesman thing where they're like oh they're harassing now they're like
