00:00:00.000 When you let aero truffle bubbles melt, everything takes on a creamy, delicious, chocolatey glow.

00:00:06.320 Like that pile of laundry.

00:00:07.760 You didn't forget to fold it.

00:00:09.220 Nah, it's a new trend.

00:00:10.760 Wrinkled chic.

00:00:12.100 Feel the aero bubbles melt.

00:00:13.900 It's mind bubbling.

00:00:15.140 What a show today.

00:00:16.320 I mean, if you have time, listen to the whole thing at glenbeck.com slash torch.

00:00:20.080 But if you only have time for the highlights, we're going to give you the best.

00:00:23.560 This is not about Iran.

00:00:24.860 As I told you yesterday, this is about a global shift.

00:00:27.960 And it all revolves around something called crink.

00:00:31.780 What is crink?

00:00:33.580 Something you must understand if you want to understand the world that we live in.

00:00:38.680 Also, Jonathan Turley on the War Powers Act and so much more.

00:00:41.920 He was fascinating.

00:00:43.420 And our contest at the Statue of Liberty.

00:00:46.180 This is the last week to be able to enter.

00:00:53.820 You might be singing at the feet of the Statue of Liberty.

00:00:56.020 But in just a couple of weeks, Roger Love was one of the greatest vocal coaches in the world.

00:01:04.260 He worked with everybody.

00:01:16.460 Check it out now at glenbeck.com slash contest.

00:01:19.380 Here is the podcast.

00:01:20.440 Let me tell you about relief factor.

00:01:23.300 Have you ever noticed how you can get used to almost anything?

00:01:26.620 A car that pulls a little to the left.

00:01:28.500 A phone with a cracked screen.

00:01:29.860 A door that sticks if you don't just lift it just right.

00:01:32.720 You don't like it, but you adjust.

00:01:34.380 You compensate.

00:01:35.280 And eventually, it just becomes normal, even though it's not.

00:01:39.220 A lot of people do the same thing with pain.

00:01:41.100 They just try to get used to it.

00:01:42.280 But if that discomfort is being driven by inflammation, then accepting it is, you know, as normal as, you know, driving a car with a check engine light on and, you know, just turning the radio up when you start to hear knocking.

00:01:54.580 My question is, are you one of those people?

00:01:57.080 Relief factor was built to go after that root issue.

00:01:59.780 It's a daily supplement designed to help your body address inflammation so you're not just managing the symptoms and hoping for the best.

00:02:06.420 Over a million people have tried relief factor, and two-thirds of them have gone on to take more.

00:02:11.280 You've probably learned how to compensate.

00:02:13.280 Stop compensating.

00:02:14.260 Begin your three-week quick start and see what relief factor can do for you.

00:02:17.480 Call 800-4-RELIEF or go to relieffactor.com.

00:03:10.980 Now let's get to work.

00:03:11.920 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:03:26.820 Professor Turin.

00:03:29.300 Welcome, sir.

00:03:30.080 How are you?

00:03:30.920 How are you?

00:03:32.420 I am great.

00:03:33.560 It is great to have you on.

00:03:35.240 Your book, Rage in the Republic, is fabulous.

00:03:38.620 It's just really, really good.

00:03:40.200 How would the founders have looked at the situation in Iran?

00:03:48.060 Well, they would not have looked kindly upon it.

00:03:51.020 You know, the framers divided the power over war between Congress and the president.

00:03:59.480 And so under Article 2, Section 2, the president has declared the commander-in-chief.

00:04:05.940 But under Article 1, Section 8, Congress alone may declare war.

00:04:11.640 So the framers wanted to make it difficult to go to war.

00:04:15.840 They didn't like foreign entanglements. 0.98

00:04:17.620 And they divided the power accordingly.

00:04:21.080 The problem is that we haven't had a declared war since World War II.

00:04:26.820 And the Congress has largely evaded its responsibility by passing resolutions, the authorization of the use of force.

00:04:36.080 And the courts have largely deferred to the political branches.

00:04:41.360 So in looking at this issue, you know, part of the question is, is the president acting according to established authority?

00:04:50.280 The answer is, yeah.

00:04:52.420 I mean, in the sense of the interpretation, the modern interpretation of the Constitution, not quite if you look at the original intent.

00:05:00.980 But there's no question that he is using the authority used by past Democratic presidents, including President Barack Obama.

00:05:12.820 I mean, I've actually been somewhat amazed by the comments of people like Nancy Pelosi, Senator Blumenthal.

00:05:23.120 I represented members of Congress opposing the Libyan war, unilaterally launched by Barack Obama.

00:05:31.180 There was no claim of a threat against the United States, imminent or otherwise.

00:05:36.180 It was a regime change attack on the capital city, on the Libyan military.

00:05:42.200 We lost that case.

00:05:44.040 But at the time, Pelosi said no authorization is required for President Obama.

00:05:49.260 And Blumenthal actually praised the unilateral attack.

00:05:53.680 Both of them have come out this week expressing horror at the thought that a president can commit this type of attack.

00:06:02.180 So here's what I want to ask you.

00:06:05.460 You know, it's my understanding.

00:06:06.720 I know I'm oversimplifying this, but it is my understanding under current the current reading of war powers.

00:06:13.020 The president has to file the paperwork and say to Congress, I've notified you early.

00:06:19.400 I'm filing this paperwork.

00:06:21.160 We are engaged now in hostilities.

00:06:24.620 And he has 60 days, right?

00:06:27.260 But he can then say at the end of 60 days, I need another 30.

00:06:32.120 So he can actually go 90 days before they actually have to do anything.

00:06:35.940 But the problem has been not a single president has ever filed the paperwork, and Congress doesn't insist on the filing of the paperwork.

00:06:43.760 So the clock never starts, correct?

00:06:48.100 Well, that is a part of the problem.

00:06:50.180 The War Powers Act has always been contested by both Democratic and Republican presidents.

00:06:55.020 Some of the restrictions on a president in carrying out these types of initial combat operations has run against the grain of Article 2.

00:07:07.540 And presidents have said, you cannot require us to go through these steps.

00:07:11.120 You have the right to declare war. 0.98

00:07:13.060 But presidents have always asserted the right to respond to what they consider to be threats to the national security.

00:07:21.460 And courts have largely deferred to presidents in that sense and deferred to Congress in taking steps.

00:07:29.680 But taking the War Powers Act at its face, 60 days is ample, very likely, for this operation.

00:07:39.080 And that's the reason why today you have Senator Kaine and others putting forward a War Powers resolution to cut that period down

00:07:49.740 and to say, we hereby order you to stop all combat operations in Iran.

00:07:56.960 The problem with that is it's a tough-sounding resolution until you get to the final line.

00:08:04.420 And the final line says nothing in this section restricts you in dealing with imminent attacks.

00:08:12.040 Well, every attack now is imminent.

00:08:14.800 Every attack we launch is preemptive.

00:08:17.300 I mean, the Iranian government is firing missiles randomly at other countries.

00:08:23.220 So the question is, what does this resolution even do?

00:08:26.760 And can't the president veto this anyway?

00:08:30.340 I mean, he could pass both the House and the Senate and then get to his desk and he can veto it, can't he?

00:08:35.240 Right.

00:08:35.700 And the other thing is that it just – I don't even think it will pass.

00:08:39.340 I think the interesting dynamic here on the Hill is to see how many of these members are willing in the middle of combat operations to say, even symbolically, even though it's sort of a paper tiger, you better stop now.

00:08:56.260 But the other combination with that, the sort of companion to that, is that there's also a vote this week scheduled to fund Homeland Security and TSA.

00:09:07.520 So it'll be very interesting how many of these Democrats – we've already had some of them come forward, like Murphy and Durbin and others, saying, no, we're not going to fund Homeland Security, the Coast Guard, TSA until you give us compromises on ICE.

00:09:26.460 Because that is going to be breathtaking if the Democrats maintain that position in the middle of this conflict.

00:09:36.280 So – it's so weird because I am – you know, I don't like the Patriot Act.

00:09:42.520 I don't like any of this stuff.

00:09:44.940 However, two things.

00:09:46.440 The War Powers Act.

00:09:47.540 If you want to actually say and make a statement, the president must act with Congress and it has to be declared every time, the time to do that was two months ago or in two months, hopefully, if this thing is over.

00:10:02.540 You do it when you're not at war.

00:10:04.440 It's completely irresponsible to do it right now.

00:10:09.440 Just the messages it sends to our enemies, the idea that you're just going to turn this thing off is insane.

00:10:19.180 The same thing with Department of Homeland Security.

00:10:21.920 You can't just do that at the most critical time of Homeland Security because that's how we're – our security is geared now.

00:10:30.200 You want to dismantle it.

00:10:31.320 I'm all for it.

00:10:32.140 Dismantle it.

00:10:32.920 But not now.

00:10:35.020 Is that reasonable, Jonathan?

00:10:36.160 That's a fascinating thing.

00:10:37.260 Well, I think that's a fascinating thing, Glenn.

00:10:38.960 And you're a student of history and you know this as well as I do, that from the very beginning, from Thomas Jefferson, presidents have been able to box in Congress on this power because they have the inherent power to dedicate U.S. armed forces.

00:10:54.000 So presidents have the right to initiate a fight.

00:10:57.400 They simply do.

00:10:58.700 If they judge someone threatening the country, they don't have to wait for anyone.

00:11:02.880 But once that fight has started, it's very difficult for Congress to throw a flag on the plate and say, okay, walk away when you're literally in the grips of an opponent.

00:11:14.640 And so what these – what Cain is suggesting in this resolution is that as hundreds of ballistic missiles are flying, as attacks are occurring around the world, the U.S. military is supposed to disengage.

00:11:29.720 And basically, it's a choice between fight or flight, and it says, choose flight.

00:11:37.360 Right now, you're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:11:40.000 And don't forget, check out the full show for even more.

00:11:43.100 We're back with more after a word from our sponsor.

00:11:45.720 We have built a world where almost everything is on demand.

00:11:54.800 You need groceries, they'll be there in an hour.

00:11:56.780 Need a ride, tap a button.

00:11:58.400 There's one thing that doesn't always show up on demand, and that is medical care, especially when the system gets strained or when you're farther away from help than you expect it to be.

00:12:07.600 We don't like to think about that.

00:12:09.220 We just assume that our pharmacy is always going to be open.

00:12:11.920 We assume that we'll all be well on vacation.

00:12:14.180 We assume the clinic will have appointments.

00:12:15.920 We assume the supply chain won't break down.

00:12:18.840 But that's why Jace Medical exists.

00:12:20.960 The Jace case is a package of doctor-prescribed antibiotics and emergency medications that you can order online and have shipped directly to your home.

00:12:51.700 Now back to the podcast.

00:12:53.000 This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:12:56.800 We bring Jason in.

00:12:58.140 Jason, the war is expanding.

00:13:00.480 England and France have, they're now sending, France I think is sending an aircraft carrier.

00:13:08.220 Who knew they had one?

00:13:10.460 England is now getting involved as well.

00:13:14.420 Why is this expanding?

00:13:15.540 It's expanding primarily, I think, because you apparently were exactly correct pretty much in everything.

00:13:24.480 And this is from Politico, actually.

00:13:27.020 Not in so many words.

00:13:28.200 I don't think they said Glenn Beck, but basically they did.

00:13:31.500 Right.

00:13:31.880 Okay.

00:13:32.220 But they're expanding also, not just because, I guess I'm correct, we're going to get to that Politico story here in a second, but also because they're seeing the bigger picture, or do you think it's because of what is happening on the ground and people getting hit?

00:13:52.200 Why is England and France?

00:13:54.640 Why are they involved?

00:13:55.520 Is it because they're seeing the bigger picture?

00:13:58.000 So I think that's where it's leading to.

00:14:00.840 The bigger picture is definitely where it's leading to eventually.

00:14:03.140 And it behooves Iran to make this a larger conflict because that makes it end quicker, in their view. 0.93

00:14:11.200 To do that, they're striking at multiple different bases that they say enabled us and or Israel to attack them.

00:14:19.420 So they're looking at places where we might have taken off or sent weapons.

00:14:22.560 So they're looking at, specifically for the Brits, they targeted the Royal Air Force Base in Cyprus.

00:14:28.560 Because that is now why the Brits are sending over a destroyer.

00:14:32.240 A lot of people are criticizing the Brits for doing this way too late.

00:14:35.500 But it kind of shows you, maybe NATO and maybe our supposed allies. 0.86

00:14:40.800 Yeah, maybe it's just useless. 0.99

00:14:42.320 It's useless. 0.79

00:14:43.280 Look, here's the thing about Europe, and you need to understand this. 0.91

00:14:46.200 If you're going to take on Islam, NATO is not going to be an ally. 1.00

00:14:51.500 They're not.

00:14:51.920 They have to placate because they are overrun with Islamists, not just Muslims, Islamists. 1.00

00:15:02.220 And they know this means trouble on the streets.

00:15:05.580 And so they're not going to be able to take clear stance.

00:15:10.140 They're just not.

00:15:11.020 It's why NATO, we got to get out of NATO.

00:15:13.040 We just have to get out of NATO.

00:15:15.220 But stay with me.

00:15:16.340 By the way, if you're a new listener or haven't joined us for a while, thank you for checking in with us.

00:15:21.260 And Jason Buttrill is my chief researcher, has been chief researcher for over a decade, I think, now.

00:15:28.440 And he does something called the Torch Insider Show, which happens during this show.

00:15:34.700 When I go into break and reset for the radio show, he's giving more information that I just don't have time to fit into the show.

00:15:42.300 So you get a really full look of the day's news.

00:15:44.960 But stay with me here, Jason, because I want to go through this Politico article, and maybe you can help go through some of this.

00:15:52.020 I'm just going to read the article.

00:15:53.520 President Donald Trump's latest attack on Iran takes a big economic bite out of one of America's chief rivals, China.

00:16:00.640 I told you yesterday that if you didn't understand the big picture, you're not going to understand.

00:16:08.260 Everybody was arguing about whether we should go into Iran or not and what this means for Iran, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

00:16:13.780 And I said, the Iranian part of it is very important.

00:16:17.580 But if you don't understand crink, China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, that axis power is called crink.

00:16:27.860 If you don't understand that and what this is going to do to crink and that axis power, you don't understand the big vision of what Donald Trump is doing.

00:16:37.080 Now listen to what Politico said now.

00:16:40.380 Over the span of two months, Trump administration has removed the leaders of two countries that both shared China as one of their most important crude oil customers.

00:16:48.780 Although China buys oil from all nations across the Middle East, Iran was second only to Saudi Arabia as its supplier last year.

00:16:58.720 Almost all of Iran's exported oil and more than half of Venezuela's went to China last year,

00:17:06.380 which remained one of the only purchasers of goods from the too heavily sanctioned nation.

00:17:11.180 The two countries combined represent, listen to this, 17% of China's overall oil purchases, a meaningful share for the world's largest importer of crude oil.

00:17:25.240 By the way, they're very green.

00:17:28.320 Did you hear what the news is?

00:17:31.080 Between Venezuela, which I told you when we went into Venezuela, this is all about Russia and China.

00:17:38.820 It's not about Venezuela.

00:17:40.240 It's about taking this hemisphere and kicking Russia and China out. 1.00

00:17:45.980 I told you on that day, Cuba is going to fall.

00:17:49.600 They're not going to get the Russian support.

00:17:52.080 It's going to fall because he's taking this hemisphere back. 1.00

00:17:56.180 Donald Trump is.

00:17:57.560 And this is going to hurt them when it comes to oil.

00:18:02.520 Then I told you last week, did you see what happened with India? 1.00

00:18:06.840 India was going after the shadow fleet. 0.77

00:18:10.060 What is the shadow fleet?

00:18:11.720 Those are all of the oil tankers that, um, that are out, that are not supposed to be out, that are, um, uh, taking sanctioned oil and shipping it over to China.

00:18:25.700 Well, India is now going after the, the shadow fleet. 0.98

00:18:31.500 Yes.

00:18:32.060 As of last week, he has taken the eye out of bricks.

00:18:37.160 Bricks was Brazil, Russia, India, uh, Chile. 0.85

00:18:42.600 No.

00:18:42.860 What was the other one?

00:18:43.480 China.

00:18:43.900 And, uh, I don't know.

00:18:45.720 Uh, anyway, but they were the ones that were coming up and saying, we're going to have a secondary monetary system.

00:18:52.760 We're going to have a new bricks dollar that will compete against the U S dollar.

00:18:57.960 Well, India was the one who came up with that. 0.84

00:19:01.000 India last week has switched sides and they're coming over with us.

00:19:06.140 So India is going after the shadow fleet. 0.60

00:19:10.080 Um, we shut down Venezuela and now we're shutting down, uh, we're shutting down Iran and their oil. 1.00

00:19:19.380 That's 17%.

00:19:21.200 What is the one thing that we cannot happen?

00:19:24.940 It cannot have happened here in the United States, especially if you want to be, um, uh, strong with AI.

00:19:34.820 What is it?

00:19:37.220 You can't lose energy.

00:19:39.840 You have to have the energy to be able to fuel the processing centers for AI.

00:19:46.640 They're losing 17% of all of their oil.

00:19:50.720 So that's remarkably bad for China now.

00:19:55.500 So, you know, that is going to make China more aggressive. 0.51

00:19:59.720 It's also going to make Russia more aggressive, possibly North Korea, more aggressive. 0.62

00:20:05.500 However, they are not doing anything to help Iran right now.

00:20:11.720 Why?

00:20:12.020 Because Iran is saying we're going to shut down the Straits of Hormuz.

00:20:16.580 You can't shut down the Straits of Hormuz.

00:20:18.940 If you're China, you cannot afford that because you just lost 17% of your oil.

00:20:24.840 If you shut down the Straits of Hormuz, you lose all the oil from Saudi Arabia and the UAE and Oman.

00:20:31.800 You lose all of it.

00:20:32.640 And they cannot afford to have that happen.

00:20:37.620 That's why China is not going to get involved as we take out the Iranian Navy because we want it to be open as well.

00:20:48.120 So China, strangely, China is on the same side of the United States when it comes to Russia.

00:20:55.500 I'm sorry, when it comes to Iran, closing down the Straits of Hormuz.

00:20:59.780 This is a remarkable, remarkable thing.

00:21:04.740 Brent crude oil began trading opening on Sunday, $81 a barrel.

00:21:10.860 That's a 12% jump from last week's closing price.

00:21:16.980 OPEC says they're going to boost oil production starting in April by 206,000 barrels a day.

00:21:23.520 I wrote down, yeah, so you know, they're going to increase 2,006 barrels a day.

00:21:31.160 Five billion barrels, five billion barrels a day are coming from Iraq, UAE, Oman, and Saudi Arabia to China through the Straits of Hormuz.

00:21:47.680 Five million barrels a day.

00:21:52.200 So when they say we're going to increase by 206,000 barrels a day, that's nothing.

00:22:00.760 That is absolutely nothing.

00:22:02.460 Jason, can you take me through some of these charts?

00:22:04.300 I can barely see them.

00:22:05.580 My screen is way too small here.

00:22:08.140 Yeah, sure.

00:22:08.720 Producer Matt, you want to throw this up here really quick.

00:22:10.800 Or they might have a better version of that.

00:22:12.460 Oh, yeah, that's probably the better one over at the regular stream.

00:22:16.200 Yeah, you've got 1.2 million coming from Iraq, 395,000 from Kuwait, 1.5 million from Saudi Arabia.

00:22:24.540 It goes on.

00:22:25.240 Qatar, UAE, Oman.

00:22:27.400 All of this effectively stops.

00:22:29.960 And as you pointed out, the IRGC pretty much effectively closed the Straits of Hormuz.

00:22:35.180 Or in their eyes, they said any tankers going through will be fired upon.

00:22:38.560 We're going to do our best to stop that.

00:22:40.480 And it hasn't stopped all traffic coming out of the Straits of Hormuz.

00:22:43.260 But this has always been Iran's big ace in the hole. 1.00

00:22:46.700 And you can see what they're doing specifically with China, as you're pointing out.

00:22:50.600 Because the strategy is to shut the Straits down.

00:22:54.380 And whatever conflict is happening, that will get enough international support to say,

00:22:58.980 guys, enough.

00:23:00.360 Stop it.

00:23:01.060 There is too much pain on the rest of the world.

00:23:03.160 You need to stop whatever conflict you're in.

00:23:05.060 And that's Iran's strategy here. 0.95

00:23:07.260 Specifically, it's a big signal to China to get involved.

00:23:10.680 They want China involved.

00:23:11.980 They want diplomatic, economic.

00:23:15.040 I guess they would love military as well.

00:23:17.580 But that's not going to happen.

00:23:18.820 But they're looking for some kind of intervention to happen from China.

00:23:22.560 But what is their...

00:23:23.700 I mean, how could they possibly say, we're going to mind...

00:23:26.420 Because that's what they're talking about.

00:23:27.360 The Strait of Hormuz is very, very narrow.

00:23:30.780 It's like this little elbow.

00:23:32.700 And so it's very, very narrow.

00:23:35.060 And they want to mine that whole strait right there.

00:23:41.420 How is China going to be supportive of something like that?

00:23:45.260 They cannot have the Straits mined.

00:23:48.020 We are saying, let's take out all of the Iranian Navy so they can't mine the Straits of Hormuz. 1.00

00:23:55.960 Because we agree with China that has got to remain open.

00:24:00.380 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:24:08.180 Mr. Roger Love, who has played a really wonderful role in my life for a long time.

00:24:14.000 We met probably 15 years ago.

00:24:17.320 We were introduced through Premier Radio Networks because I have a really weird set of vocal cords that are pretty wussy.

00:24:26.100 And I can blow them out at any time.

00:24:28.020 And he is a guy who doesn't say, no, no, whisper.

00:24:31.880 He says, don't whisper.

00:24:34.500 Let's get through this.

00:24:35.560 And I have gone from absolutely not being able to speak to full voice in 15 or 20 minutes with this guy.

00:24:42.200 And he has done it with Elton John when he was having problems and Beyonce and everybody who's anybody.

00:24:49.460 He used to help Rush Limbaugh and he's helped everybody.

00:24:57.880 And he has become a very dear friend.

00:24:59.900 He is one of the nicest guys I know.

00:25:02.180 And we were talking last summer about something else.

00:25:05.280 And I said, you know, Roger, I'm starting something called The Torch.

00:25:07.560 And one of my goals is to just show inspiration, be able to show people making it, living their dreams, conquering things they never thought that they could conquer.

00:25:21.860 And he said, you know, I can help people who stutter.

00:25:25.780 I don't remember how we got into that, but he said, I do lots of things and I can help people stop stuttering.

00:25:31.300 I'm like, what?

00:25:31.800 And I said, well, why don't we start a little documentary series, run about a half hour, called Find Your Voice.

00:25:38.720 And when we find somebody who you can help find themselves and walk into their real voice and change their lives, let's do that.

00:25:48.520 And so the first Find Your Voice on Torch at GlennBeck.com is about a guy in Tampa who, bless his heart, man, has stuttered his whole life.

00:25:58.820 And he had a hard time finding friends, love life, everything else.

00:26:05.020 And working with Roger two days and then doing a lot of work on his own, his life changed.

00:26:11.020 And it was so cool to watch because you could see happiness and joy in his eyes by the time it was over.

00:26:19.900 He had a totally different view of life.

00:26:21.600 It was so cool.

00:26:22.560 You can see that mini doc at GlennBeck.com slash Torch.

00:26:25.720 It's called Find Your Voice.

00:26:27.020 Roger joins me now.

00:26:28.100 Hello, Roger.

00:26:29.880 Good morning.

00:26:31.460 You look very handsome today.

00:26:33.760 Oh, thank you very much.

00:26:34.920 And you look, well, like it's early in the West Coast.

00:26:38.820 I mean, thanks for putting on pajamas.

00:26:40.860 No, I'm kidding.

00:26:42.340 So, Roger, you said to me when I called you up and I said, I have something that I'd love to do.

00:26:51.900 I'd love to find somebody who is not a professional singer but has always wanted to sing no matter what their age.

00:26:59.860 And I need three singers for this major event on May 2nd at the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.

00:27:11.480 And I said, can you, if we find some people, can you help them get there and knock it out of the park?

00:27:18.740 And you were, you're so amazing.

00:27:21.200 You're like, absolutely.

00:27:22.700 That's that.

00:27:23.220 We can do that when my eyes closed.

00:27:25.280 Roger, at first the contestant started coming in slowly and I was a little worried.

00:27:31.720 I don't know if you've seen the last batch that's come in over the last few days, but there are, I mean, from kids who are 15 years old to this, I don't even know how old she is, but mom of four, you know, mom that is also a, you know, started her own business and everything else.

00:27:52.740 Not a professional singer to somebody who has done some professional singing, all the whole range and Roger, you are going to be able to, I mean, you're going to, you're going to change somebody's life when they're finished with you and they're singing there.

00:28:08.300 I think it's going to be game changing for them.

00:28:11.400 Have you seen some of them?

00:28:13.280 Absolutely.

00:28:13.920 The submissions are so, they're so genuine.

00:28:17.580 These are people that, that, that have, have found their voice and, and, and, and they're, they're, they're all ages.

00:28:27.600 The, the 14, 15 year old, so, so authentic, so passionate about singing.

00:28:34.700 The mother of four who started a business, like you said, beautiful voice.

00:28:39.440 Yeah.

00:28:39.560 I'm going to tweak it.

00:28:40.560 But the bottom line is that these are people that love to sing and have already realized the importance of voice in their life.

00:28:46.360 This is an amazing opportunity.

00:28:48.040 What we are missing is we haven't had enough submissions of men.

00:28:53.840 So look, as a voice coach, I realize more women sing than men.

00:28:58.320 I don't know why that is.

00:29:00.700 Women are more, are more prone to learning, but I really want to make sure that we have enough men. 1.00

00:29:07.220 We need, we need a man who, who, who wants to showcase his voice too.

00:29:12.900 So we could definitely use more submissions of men.

00:29:16.280 Again, you don't have to be the most incredible singer on the block.

00:29:20.720 You just have to have a voice and a passion and I'll tweak it.

00:29:26.020 You have to love to sing.

00:29:27.280 You have to want to be part of something that's historic.

00:29:29.080 You know, one of the things that I have found interesting is all of the submissions that I have seen so far, and it's weird, most of them are connecting with the song in French.

00:29:42.860 So they must, these people, I'd have to know, because they sing it so well, they must have spoken French to begin with.

00:29:50.360 I don't know, but they all say the minute I heard this song, it connected with me so deeply that it's just, it's part of me.

00:30:00.440 Almost all of them are saying something like that.

00:30:04.020 And that's how you know, it's really going to be good.

00:30:06.220 Cause it's not just somebody just singing a song.

00:30:08.240 It is, it is going to be people who are connected deeply to the message.

00:30:14.320 I mean, I would have a hard time singing it, not just bursting out in tears, standing in front of the Statue of Liberty, singing some of these things, you know?

00:30:20.680 First time I heard the songs, the first time I heard the songs, so beautiful.

00:30:24.860 I was moved.

00:30:26.240 I think we're getting more people who speak French because people don't always like to compete and, and, and they're, they have special skill sets.

00:30:34.500 So they're hoping that their ability to speak French moves them up the ladder.

00:30:39.700 But we're, yes, looking for someone that speaks French, but not just that we're really looking for someone who has a passion to sing and wants to showcase it.

00:30:48.700 It's really weird because the ones that I think the songs that I thought would be the easiest are the, is the song that is more contemporary.

00:30:58.460 You know, they came for the hope and it's very contemporary, almost a, almost a, in some ways, almost a Phineas kind of sound.

00:31:06.560 Um, and, uh, and it's weird because that's the one, especially with men, we're not getting as many submissions and you can hear all of the songs, um, and, and then record them.

00:31:21.160 Please don't write to us and say, Hey, I know somebody tell them this is a merit-based contest.

00:31:26.900 If they can't get on and do it themselves, then, you know, I can't help you.

00:31:32.720 They got to put in the effort and record the song.

00:31:36.020 So, Roger, what exactly are we looking for in a man?

00:31:40.140 Is there anything that, you know, what are we looking for?

00:31:45.620 We're looking for a man that's in our family because, uh, because we want to, we want to stay within.

00:31:51.880 We want to support the people that are in our community.

00:31:55.040 And the, this, the, the female songs are a little bit harder than the male songs.

00:32:02.260 So don't shy away if you don't think that you have the, the greatest range in the world.

00:32:08.020 I just, I just say, submit yourself.

00:32:11.520 What do you have to lose other than the opportunity to be a part of a historic event?

00:32:16.880 But you'll have a video at the end that your, your grandkids will watch, you know, 50 years from now, your grandkids will watch and go, wow, you did that?

00:32:28.080 I mean, nobody gets this opportunity.

00:32:30.100 Believe me, I know, cause I've been working with the parks department, the rules, uh, of what you can and cannot do on that island.

00:32:37.600 Those two islands is phenomenal.

00:32:39.640 So believe me, you'll have an opportunity.

00:32:42.420 Nobody else, uh, has Roger, uh, can we make a, find your voice based on this too?

00:32:48.160 When we get the contestants, we're going to start voting next week.

00:32:51.280 The, the, the cutoff is this Friday.

00:32:53.580 Can we make a, find your voice with you working with them?

00:32:57.100 And are you coming to New York with us?

00:32:59.460 I'm going to be there.

00:33:00.420 Of course.

00:33:01.340 Oh, good, good, good, good, good.

00:33:02.760 I want to be there.

00:33:03.760 I also want to give a shout out to the thousands of comments we've already gotten from people that have seen the documentary and they're, they're so loving.

00:33:13.400 People are saying they're either crying, happy tears all the way through it, or they're laughing while they're crying, happy tears all the way through it.

00:33:21.820 So, so thanks to, thanks to, to your family, to your community for, for embracing the documentary, understanding that we're just trying to help people find their voice and, and use it to make a better life.

00:33:31.960 Real quick, I've only got about 30 seconds.

00:33:34.420 Did you get the note that somebody said, I have a, I think their child had cerebral palsy and they wanted to talk to you about helping them.

00:33:44.880 And I just, I, I read this and I thought, oh my gosh, that would be so great if we could help.

00:33:48.940 Did you get that note?

00:33:50.220 I did that.

00:33:51.120 I'm, I don't remember if it was cerebral palsy, but there was some, some challenge and I, I totally responded saying, I'm here for you.

00:33:58.660 Okay, good.

00:33:59.280 Well, if you hear back, let me know, cause I'd love to hear the progress on that.

00:34:02.360 Maybe we can make that a find your voice as well.

00:34:04.440 Roger Love.
