We were listening to it before we did this piece of crap.
00:00:13.680
We covered absolutely everything from hookers, hookers, and more hookers with Hunter.
00:00:25.900
He and a couple of others, including Mike Lee, are actually proposing we get out of the U.N.
00:00:35.320
We also talked about, you know, the spending proposals now that are re-upping FISA without any of the change.
00:00:49.940
And don't forget, right now, this week, this is started today at glennbeckart.com.
00:01:01.060
So you can get posters of all the different kinds of art that I have done.
00:01:05.060
And they make great Christmas gifts, tell great stories of history.
00:01:12.960
You just find it at work and you go to glennbeckart.com, glennbeckart.com.
00:01:27.220
I love Grip6 because we complain all the time about companies who do things the wrong way and they do it the right way.
00:01:32.980
And it's important to find the companies that do that and support them, not just complain about the ones that do it the wrong way.
00:01:39.740
And Grip6 is great because they are a small company in Utah.
00:01:43.460
They have been, you know, they sell products all around the world, but they don't make the products all around the world.
00:01:50.700
They don't source the products all around the world.
00:01:52.680
They source the products right here in America.
00:02:01.140
If you're playing pickleball, you can get an awesome pickleball racket.
00:02:04.400
If you go to grip6.com, they have links to it up there.
00:02:07.220
But check it all out there because, honestly, like, it's important to get high-quality stuff, great gifts.
00:02:13.760
If you're going to buy Christmas gifts anyway, why not buy it from a company that actually likes the country you live in?
00:02:28.460
You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:45.760
Jonathan Isaac, he's the NBA basketball player for the Orlando Magic.
00:02:53.660
He became very popular to people who don't know sports during the COVID debacle because he said no.
00:03:06.700
He founded Unitas and has now created the first basketball shoe to feature a visible Bible verse.
00:03:24.880
By the way, full disclosure, Unitas is a sponsor, I think, of The Blaze.
00:03:33.680
It doesn't affect my conversation with Jonathan.
00:03:43.720
I'm actually on this call with you on my way to practice.
00:03:49.040
So what prompted, for people who don't know anything about Unitas, what prompted you to start Unitas?
00:03:57.540
Well, what prompted me was first just wanting to see my values represented in the marketplace,
00:04:05.180
We've got a plethora of companies today, and really just our society at whole, I felt are moving away from godly values and principles and also constitutional values and principles.
00:04:17.540
And so it's like, hey, I know that millions of people feel the same way I do about what makes a prosperous society, faith, family, freedom, things like that.
00:04:25.880
And I wanted to be able to give them something that they can be encouraged by and just feel good about and know that the company that they're supporting completely supports and stands for their values, not just behind closed doors, but in the mainstream media and marketplace.
00:04:40.460
What prompted Nike to pull their partnership from you?
00:04:49.820
Part of it is when players get hurt, it's something that happens, right?
00:04:53.440
Back in the bubble, after I stood, I got hurt, and it was a pretty serious injury.
00:05:00.560
If you can't play, you know, you can't make companies money.
00:05:02.960
And so I wasn't able to play, and so they didn't resign me.
00:05:09.640
This is the first basketball shoe to be manufactured with a visible Bible verse in it.
00:05:20.580
So, again, that's just me trying to be authentically myself.
00:05:25.100
And the sneaker actually came about before the idea of United started.
00:05:28.900
And because I didn't resign with Nike, I actually went to my pastor, and I told him, hey, you know, I don't have a shoe company anymore.
00:05:46.940
And so I'm like, shoot, we'll put Bible verses on it.
00:05:50.420
We'll call it the Judah One and have Judah on the side of it, the Lion of Judah.
00:05:56.300
And then the bigger idea of United came about because it was like, why just create a sneaker for myself?
00:06:00.480
Why not give everybody an alternative avenue to stand for their values?
00:06:10.160
And honestly, the support and the recognition of it has been absolutely amazing.
00:06:16.400
So what is the process like to design your own sneaker?
00:06:22.780
So mine was a little different, I'm sure, than most.
00:06:25.500
I remember watching a movie a while back, and the person had went to a college campus and used the students.
00:06:35.120
And so I was able to connect with their design school, and we turned it into an entire assignment for the students.
00:06:41.020
And we were able to pay five of them to come up with designs that we liked.
00:06:44.800
And that's where the first prototype design of the Judah One was born.
00:06:48.120
And we just ran with it once we got it from them.
00:06:53.420
It was the design of the actual shoe, or is the shoe itself, you know, as far as the way it works, you know, on your foot?
00:07:02.860
It was just the flat-faced design, and then we were able to take it to factories and a company called SoulWorks to actually turn this into a real sneaker.
00:07:12.620
So you have not only sneakers, but you also have active wear, et cetera, et cetera.
00:07:21.220
You've got a great I Stand With Israel t-shirt right on the front.
00:07:40.520
They will ship them out ready to go for Christmas.
00:07:45.940
You'll find something that is at WeAreUnitas.com.
00:07:52.240
I wanted to get you on because I wanted to ask you, I think this is such a remarkable product, and I just applaud you.
00:08:03.400
You're the first guy to really come in and just say, hey, I'm doing my own thing, and I'm doing it for God, and I'm doing it because our values are being lost.
00:08:13.440
I would love to have any of the prototypes, any of the prototypes, any of the early stuff, I'd like to keep it in our museum because I think this is going to be an important shoe.
00:08:35.140
When you said, you know, you're bold and all these things, I have definitely developed, I would say, quite a bit of callus over the years from the different things.
00:08:48.460
I think with the way that our country is going, we have to be just authentic and transparent about what it is that we believe in and stand on it.
00:08:58.700
But there are so many people who need to see somebody stand up for what they believe in to know that it's okay to do it themselves.
00:09:06.040
And I guess that's a part of my calling, and I just want to, you know, walk it out.
00:09:12.300
It's great to have somebody that our kids and even people like me can look up to and say, look at this guy.
00:09:35.780
And on the back tab is the Bible verse, which I think is fantastic.
00:09:40.700
And I think he's coming out with the fourth iteration of the Judah one.
00:09:49.740
And he's coming out with the fourth or the fifth now.
00:09:57.820
I don't follow the NBA that closely, but I know of him.
00:10:07.200
It's just been a while since I've, I've really followed, followed it closely, but it's nice.
00:10:13.500
It's really refreshing to see a professional athlete who's in the news because of something positive like that instead of beating up his wife or girlfriend.
00:10:22.460
I have to tell you, there's a lot of, I think the NFL is changing.
00:10:25.480
I think there's a lot of guys in the NFL that are really Christ-centered and really good.
00:10:36.380
He's the only one in the NBA that I'm aware of, but I don't obviously follow the NBA at all.
00:10:43.800
But I know he has paid a very, very high price, and I hope he is, and this shoe becomes very, very successful.
00:10:53.280
Everybody is like, oh, I've got to have a Nike shoe.
00:10:59.980
Is fashion, you know, I thought of something the other day that we are truly, we've lost shame in our society.
00:11:18.160
And then a friend of mine said, you know, I don't, you know, sometimes my wife will say something if I'm wearing, you know, socks in my sandals.
00:11:43.060
If you're not dressed properly, if you're not with the right brand, and that could be from politics to clothing, car, neighborhood, whatever it is, we shame for brands now.
00:12:02.260
And that's one of the big problems with our society.
00:12:06.520
Shame needs to be returned away from this brand shaming, but actual values.
00:12:25.520
That kind of stuff about Hunter Biden, we're going to get into it next hour.
00:12:31.900
You know, the average person used to be like, oh, my gosh, I can't.
00:12:54.420
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and we really want to thank you for listening.
00:12:58.980
We have Chip Roy coming up, hopefully in a couple of minutes here.
00:13:01.860
Chip is the representative from the great state of Texas.
00:13:06.280
He and Mike Lee, and who was the third one from, I think it was Alabama, wasn't it, Pat?
00:13:19.540
Tuberville, I tell you, I think that guy is a hero for what he's done.
00:13:23.120
I think all of the stuff that he has done to stop abortion and everything else, and he's
00:13:34.200
just been raked over the coals by the wonderful GOP makes me sick, makes me really sick.
00:13:43.960
So they came out yesterday, and they want to put an end and defund the United Nations
00:13:55.240
So the WHO and everything else would be a thing of the past.
00:14:05.660
Don't know how they're going to make this case and win, but I'm glad somebody's at least
00:14:14.600
There's so much going on here right before the end of the year.
00:14:30.300
What prompted this from you guys, and what is the plan?
00:14:37.400
Well, first of all, it's not a new concept, obviously, for those of us who hated the United
00:14:41.120
Nations for a long time and believe that it's a colossal waste of money, $12.5 billion of
00:14:46.320
American both tax dollars and borrowed money that's gone to the UN as recent as 2021, okay,
00:14:53.260
Mike Lee and I were talking about this, so disgusted about what we've seen at the United
00:14:56.960
Nations, their ridiculousness in terms of how they've treated Israel, voting not to
00:15:01.720
condemn Hamas, their ridiculousness of funding Hamas through UNRWA, which is, you know, done
00:15:07.500
in the name of refugees, but ends up funding terrorist entities like Hamas, you know, their
00:15:12.940
Human Rights Council, which is a complete sham.
00:15:16.580
They put all of the worst human rights violators on it, funding the, you know, China one-child
00:15:24.340
And then you just saw the article yesterday that Mike Lee tweeted out.
00:15:27.280
Mike and I, you know, he introduced the Senate version.
00:15:29.460
I introduced the House version to totally just defund the United Nations and get out.
00:15:33.040
And Mike tweeted out a picture of an article about how all these UN workers have been raping
00:15:38.760
children in Africa and other places around the world.
00:15:40.960
And look, it's just a organization devoid of soul.
00:15:50.460
Is this something that you think could gain traction and win?
00:15:57.620
I think we need to get really serious about it.
00:15:59.720
And I will say, OK, to the credit of the House, you know, I'm pretty, you know, vicious
00:16:05.060
in my condemnation of the failures of House Republicans.
00:16:08.320
But in fairness, right, we're dealing with frickin' a recalcitrant Senate that doesn't
00:16:12.480
want to do anything in a White House that's not just incompetent, but evil.
00:16:15.960
We passed appropriations bills that are state and foreign operations that would have defunded
00:16:23.420
But it defunded a lot of these terrible things, like UNRWA, like the Chinese policy.
00:16:29.080
Mario Diaz-Ballart in Florida, he worked with us on that.
00:16:35.600
So we introduced this bill as a standalone, basically to kind of one-up it all and send
00:16:40.220
a message that you have serious members of the Senate and the House saying, wait a minute,
00:16:44.540
we should not be sending $12.5 billion to the United Nations.
00:16:48.300
So, you know, we'll have to keep working the issue.
00:16:50.620
But I know you agree and I know your listeners agree.
00:16:52.400
Okay, so the next thing is the spending bills and the fact that this defense bill, first
00:17:00.640
of all, if I'm not mistaken, it was yesterday that Lloyd Austin said, if you fail to pass
00:17:08.760
this Ukraine aid bill, U.S. troops on the ground in Ukraine are likely.
00:17:21.380
You're talking about the supplemental spending bill at the moment, right?
00:17:29.040
It has a massive amount of spending, over $100 billion, $60 billion additional funding for
00:17:37.100
I think it's $10 or $15 billion of additional spending at the border, which would just be
00:17:41.260
used to process more people, not change the policies.
00:17:44.800
More spending for Taiwan, more spending generally.
00:17:50.560
And yes, in a briefing the other day, the secretary alluded to, you know, saying, you know, if
00:17:57.800
you guys don't do this, you know, effectively, we're going to be committing American troops
00:18:02.100
Now, if you're being less cynical, you'd say his position is that if we don't push back
00:18:06.600
on Putin now, we'll get drawn into a war that involves our men and women in uniform.
00:18:11.440
To which my response is, no, if you keep carrying out your incompetent policies, where you refuse
00:18:18.080
to promote American energy, where you refuse to actually sanction, for example, Iran, you
00:18:23.380
allow Iran to provide oil to China, you take all of the positions that are empowering our
00:18:28.060
enemies, then you say we need to fund a proxy war to stop those enemies, or you're going
00:18:35.260
And oh, by the way, they wanted to draft your daughters, which I proudly stood up and stopped.
00:18:42.020
So we're going to stand up and stand athwart that, at least conservatives are.
00:18:45.660
And I hope Mike Johnson will keep doing what he's been doing.
00:18:49.960
I mean, I'm critical when I'm critical, but I'm complimentary when I'm complimentary.
00:18:53.860
Mike has sent a strong message that we will not even remotely consider Ukraine funding
00:19:02.140
I don't, you know, I think we need to question Ukraine spending generally, but I know for certain
00:19:07.040
we shouldn't even mention the word until the border of the United States is secure.
00:19:15.660
Well, Mike, as you know, is a very good friend.
00:19:19.740
On that point, he's done, I think, a great job on sending over Israel immediately, first
00:19:25.140
day on the job, and that next week, you know, funded with taking money out of the IRS expansion.
00:19:32.320
Look, I think he needs to not give in to the pressures of the swamp.
00:19:36.120
The swamp makes, they work on the addiction of pressure.
00:19:41.780
Oh, my God, if you don't pass FISA by December 31st, the world's going to end, and suddenly
00:19:49.180
people are going to end up, we're all going to die.
00:19:55.080
This National Defense Authorization Act, which is a terrible bill, it's not the House bill,
00:20:00.940
which fixed the abortion transgender, I'm sorry, the abortion tourism.
00:20:04.540
It fixed transgender surgeries, it fixed the DEI and woke stuff, it fixed some of the
00:20:19.880
Then, now they want to add FISA extension, which, Glenn, for your listeners, means using
00:20:25.660
backdoor foreign intelligence to go after American citizens.
00:20:31.120
We want to end that, we passed a good bill in the Judiciary Committee to end that, but
00:20:36.540
unfortunately, Mike has agreed with Senate Democrats to put a, quote, short-term extension
00:20:41.480
of the existing bill, which allows the spying, until April, and that would actually last until
00:20:49.800
We oppose it, all of your listeners should tell every single one of your members of Congress
00:20:54.180
and Senators to oppose the NDAA that has FISA on it, because if we vote on it next week,
00:21:00.540
we need at least 150 Republicans to stand up and block that bill.
00:21:08.280
Well, we also may get some Democrats, so it may be a little bit fewer, but I want as many
00:21:13.100
Republicans as we can get, depending on how many Democrats we get to block it.
00:21:17.900
But they're going to try to pass it on what we call suspension of the rules, which means
00:21:24.660
So we need, you know, 140 or so of both Republicans and Democrats to kill it.
00:21:30.300
So we want to get as many Republicans as possible to say, we're not going to jam through a 3,000
00:21:35.660
page watered down crappy defense authorization that continues the wokeification of the military
00:21:40.960
instead of a mission first military, you know, driving down morale, driving down recruiting.
00:21:45.860
And then, oh, by the way, continue the FISA spying regime, which has been abusing power
00:21:58.020
We just passed it out of the Judiciary Committee on a bipartisan basis.
00:22:02.120
That is what we should be advancing over to the Senate.
00:22:04.780
Tell me about Tommy Tuberville, because I think he's a hero.
00:22:08.400
He stood and stood and stood and stood and stood and damn near no Republicans stood with him.
00:22:15.060
Uh, and, uh, he was, I mean, he was just been bashed and bashed.
00:22:20.380
And he finally said, okay, tell me what happened here.
00:22:24.860
Well, uh, coach Tuberville, Senator Tuberville is a good man.
00:22:29.760
Um, funny enough, his legislative director is a very good friend of mine and my roommate
00:22:35.140
Um, look, coach Tuberville is, uh, someone who stood up on the side of life.
00:22:40.380
Like you said, he would do unlike a lot of Republicans, uh, that run on being pro-life.
00:22:45.660
And then when that, you know, the battle faces them, they run away.
00:22:49.340
I mean, the other Senator from Alabama touts herself as being Ms. Pro-life, but did she go
00:23:02.560
Roger Marshall went down there, but not that many went down and supported coach Tuberville
00:23:09.480
And by the way, Glenn, all he was saying was we should vote on these confirmations.
00:23:15.260
That's all he was demanding in making us do that.
00:23:18.080
Because he said, guys, if you're going to continue to advance an unlawful policy to
00:23:21.760
have taxpayers find abortion tourism at the department of defense, I'm going to make you
00:23:25.720
do the work of getting these things done through votes.
00:23:32.700
This is the same issue that is in the national defense authorization act.
00:23:38.840
We should force the Senate to address it, but we, but instead Republicans are about, if we
00:23:44.340
don't stop them, Republicans are going to move a defense bill.
00:23:54.860
That does not sufficiently address diversity, equity, inclusion garbage.
00:23:58.620
That does not sufficiently restore people that lost their jobs for COVID and adds FISA
00:24:12.860
I've got about 70 seconds here for this answer.
00:24:27.220
On Tuesday in the house rules committee, we will be taking up, and I serve on the rules
00:24:32.280
committee, a impeachment inquiry vote, which we intend to take to the floor.
00:24:37.680
And I hope and believe we'll pass off the house floor.
00:24:40.860
Now we have a couple of members who are still a little wishy-washy, but we hope to get it
00:24:45.900
If we can do that, that's the additional tools that we need to get more information and force
00:24:49.920
the Biden administration to stop their obstruction, that's what it is, of our seeking the truth
00:24:55.960
of what we all know, is that that money flowing through Hunter was flowing through Hunter to
00:25:02.120
And we believe, oh, we've got to go get more information.
00:25:05.400
But certainly, in a conspiracy with Joe Biden, while enriching his son, using foreign actors
00:25:10.760
to do it, to the detriment of our national security and well-being.
00:25:14.780
And so, Hunter, of course, now that you asked about the indictments, the indictments that
00:25:19.080
were brought down yesterday, they seem fairly significant with respect to the tax laws that
00:25:29.120
He was writing off, I mean, any number of things you can't do.
00:25:37.160
But remember, they walked away and they let the statute of limitations run on some very,
00:25:43.600
very significant tax violations from 2014 to 15 when Biden was vice president.
00:25:52.040
So we're going to keep running as much as we can with the tools we have.
00:25:56.580
Jamie Comer and Jim Jordan have done a good job.
00:25:58.640
I hope every Republican will support this inquiry that we vote out on Tuesday.
00:26:07.020
Thank you for the handful of people that are around you and Mike Lee and others that are
00:26:15.880
I appreciate every day you guys are in that cesspool, so we don't have to be.
00:26:25.660
Maybe I'll talk to you before Christmas, but I'm not going to stop.
00:26:28.240
I barely have a voice right now, but I don't give a damn.
00:26:30.660
We got to save this country for our kids, Glenn.
00:26:32.740
Those men that sat in the foxholes in Bastogne in 1944, freezing to death so that we could live
00:26:39.320
We shouldn't adjourn next week if we haven't done our dang job.
00:26:58.580
Let's say hello to our executive producer, Stu Bergeer.
00:27:05.060
There's a couple of things that I want to share.
00:27:12.960
You know, I have macular degeneration in one eye and macular dystrophy in the other eye.
00:27:37.940
However, about a month ago, something started happening with my left eye.
00:27:56.140
And yesterday they were talking to me about it.
00:28:00.240
And she said, did you see lightning strikes when this happened?
00:28:06.500
I said, I closed my eyes or even opened, but I closed my eyes.
00:28:14.420
And she said, yeah, let's go ahead and take some more pictures of your eye.
00:28:18.340
Apparently, when you get to be a certain age, over 12, I think, you know, the jelly.
00:28:32.560
So any, you know, ophthalmologist or anybody who knows anything about that, Rand Paul,
00:28:42.040
So, you know, our eyes have like jelly in them.
00:28:53.440
Uh, and, uh, and so when you get, you know, over 12, the, the jelly can pull away from
00:29:06.760
Uh, and when that happens, sometimes that, that will detach your retina.
00:29:16.860
And so she said, let's go back and take some pictures.
00:29:19.940
And, uh, she didn't tell me about the detached retina thing yet.
00:29:25.180
So we went back and then she looked at me and she said, this is good news.
00:29:31.920
And she said, yeah, because it didn't pull any of the retina.
00:29:36.280
So you didn't detach and you go blind from detached.
00:29:47.820
And she said, no, it'll, no, but come see me about a month.
00:29:56.200
And she said, no, this is how incredible the, the, uh, the body is.
00:30:01.500
She said, your brain will just get used to it and start filling in the missing information.
00:30:14.460
A lot of peripheral vision is like you're, you don't actually see it.
00:30:17.960
Your body just like your mind takes it in and then recreates it as you're looking in other
00:30:24.540
And for it to be as fly, think about how many hallucinations, uh, AI has.
00:30:30.840
Think about all of the pictures that are like, well, that's not quite right.
00:30:34.840
Have you ever looked at, have you ever had your peripheral vision or anything and went,
00:30:40.020
oh, it's not really a tree on the side of my head.
00:30:48.740
I mean, it's just the, the human body is just amazing.
00:30:53.740
And, and look, the thing that's, and one of the reasons why Glenn, you and I take such
00:31:11.440
Uh, last night, if you can't share, it's not right.
00:31:17.480
So anyway, um, last night, uh, Rafe came home and, uh, and we decided to go see a, uh,
00:31:42.720
Rafe and I are big King Kong Godzilla fans, you know, and we've watched all the Japanese
00:31:49.500
I hate the Japanese movies, but you know, I watched them with him.
00:31:53.480
Uh, and so this one comes out and it's all in Japanese.
00:31:58.180
So it's subtitled strike one, but I kind of take away half the strike because they didn't
00:32:06.060
dub it, you know, it's not like their lips are moving and then you're like, and we should
00:32:16.720
I mean, I, this look, there might be an art house film.
00:32:19.980
I pulled the trigger on for this and the right certain scenario, but to see a Godzilla film
00:32:35.400
It's done, I think by the, by the original company or something that made the original.
00:32:40.440
So it's very true to the originals, except it's done well.
00:32:49.900
Um, it doesn't look like a puppet like Godzilla.
00:32:54.160
You can't see the strings coming out of the tail.
00:32:59.920
It doesn't look like the modern dinosaur Godzilla.
00:33:09.680
I mean, they go, yeah, it's like fully produced, fully produced CGI.
00:33:12.960
Um, and, uh, it's so different because it's Japanese and the story starts in world war
00:33:21.640
two with a kamikaze pilot who is afraid to die.
00:33:27.020
So he lands on this little Island, uh, where, you know, the plane, he's like, I, but something's
00:33:38.660
This is the big, this is at the end of world war two.
00:33:41.920
And so it's, it's the origin story, if you will, of Godzilla and has the, you know, has
00:33:48.560
him stomping on the power lines and eating the train cars and all of the stuff from the
00:33:53.660
original, except it's, uh, except it's done really well.
00:34:03.760
The story of this kamikaze pilot who the war really never ends for him because, you know,
00:34:17.020
And so the shame that he lives with, and then he's becomes a coward again when Godzilla first
00:34:23.680
shows up and everybody on the Island, except one guy and him, uh, die.
00:34:30.400
It's a little weird from an American perspective to get the kamikaze pilot as the hero.
00:34:41.100
And they, they recognize that, um, they, cause they say at one point, our culture has
00:34:49.260
been a culture of death where we didn't care about life and we're not like that anymore.
00:34:55.720
So there, it shows some of the change, um, but it is so good.
00:35:02.100
And there is this, the cutest little girl, this little Asian baby that grows up into a
00:35:10.700
girl's by, by the end of the movies, I don't know, about six or seven.
00:35:20.140
Um, and when he, at this all of the beginning, when he goes back to his home and everybody's
00:35:29.260
dead and there's nothing left and you see him in that area for two or three years, you'll
00:35:38.600
understand the devastation in Japan, unlike you've ever seen before.
00:35:43.860
We've also getting a historical lesson in a way from, in a way, yeah.
00:35:47.360
It's just such a different look at almost everything.
00:35:51.080
And the, the, the story of the characters, it's just, it's just so good.
00:36:08.980
I don't consider Godzilla a superhero movie though.
00:36:11.820
Well, this one is not like God, you know how Godzilla is like, oh, maybe we should hug him
00:36:17.620
in the end, you know, where you're like, oh, the recent ones haven't been like that though.
00:36:26.260
Godzilla seems to always kind of turn around and then at the last minute, like kill Mothra
00:36:32.520
No, this one, this one is what I think Godzilla would be like.
00:36:37.460
Well, see, I feel like the real story of Godzilla is 1967's son of Godzilla.
00:36:45.840
I mean, I, if you haven't seen it, I can give you the tagline and you can just tell
00:36:53.640
Have you ever seen a monster hatch from a monster egg?
00:37:06.140
Hey, there's going to be an egg hatching at some point.
00:37:10.300
Have you heard, have you heard, uh, about the movie ISS international space station?
00:37:17.720
I've not saw the preview for this before Godzilla.
00:37:22.960
It is the international space station with Americans and Russians in the, you know, they
00:37:28.860
join and they're working together and everything's going well.
00:37:32.120
And then they look down, one of them is looking out of the window, uh, to earth and they see
00:37:37.800
a nuclear explosion and then, and the whole world is on fire and they can't raise anybody.
00:37:49.680
But then finally, this is what was in the trailer.
00:37:55.440
And they say, you must take over the ISS by any means possible.
00:38:11.120
And then one of them says, if we're being told this, they're being told this.
00:38:16.260
And so you just see all these scenes where the world is on fire below them.
00:38:25.780
That's even better than he's seeing a monster egg gets hatched and a monster comes out.
00:38:33.320
Well, the reason why I said that is because, uh, alien said, they'll never hear you scream
00:39:00.180
You know, I go back and forth on him all the time.
00:39:07.040
Um, but you'll understand him better than you ever have.
00:39:13.820
And if you have Spotify, if you're on Spotify, you can get the book for free.
00:39:17.520
So it's, it's, it's long, but it's worth your time.
00:39:21.160
But one of the parts they talk about is how we went, we just gave up sending people to
00:39:26.480
the, uh, international space station with our own machinery.
00:39:30.180
We just were like hitching rides with the Russians.
00:39:32.200
And I remember that sort of, but kind of forgotten it.
00:39:34.440
And what I loved about the story was the first time we started doing that again was a private
00:39:41.460
A private company was able to send a person to the international space station.
00:39:47.060
I mean, now many were hitching rides with the Russians, Russians.
00:39:49.960
I mean, how embarrassing is that after, and God only knows what it would be like today.
00:39:57.380
Uh, but I mean, the fact that we had a private company able to rise up, what a great American
00:40:05.100
All you need to do is be the richest man in the world.
00:40:06.720
You can pull this stuff off all the time, Glenn.
00:40:08.620
Get a couple hundred billion dollars and it's cake.
