Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hey, it's a great show. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program today. Really, really great show to talk to you a little bit about health care and why all the Republic or the Democratic nonsense about health care. We shouldn't even be considering right now. The world's about to change. And I'll tell you about that. Also, Joe Biden, he's on the he's on the I was gonna say he's on the charge of the caliphate, but that's not exactly how he pronounces it.
00:00:27.380 The guy is clueless. Nick DiPaolo is with us. We go over what's happening in Russia, some big news out of Russia today, the hacking in Russia. We give you a hint on what's coming up on our next special on Ukraine. And I think it's what the Russians were looking for in Ukraine. And we happen to have it. And we'll tell you a little bit about that. Also, last night's debate with a Democrat. Oh, it was delicious. I'll give you all the details.
00:00:57.380 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:01:07.420 Just a quick update. Thank you for all of your prayers. Mary got out of surgery. She's my eldest daughter. She has cerebral palsy and has as really had her whole life turned upside down from epileptic seizures.
00:01:28.840 The people at UT Medical Center are amazing. This is probably the family and I talked about it. I think actually this may be the reason we moved to Dallas.
00:01:43.840 You know, we've, we've, we've, we've kind of wondered and we've put a whole bunch of different things into that. And I think this may be it. This is the leading area for epilepsy, perhaps in the world.
00:01:56.420 And one of the best doctors happens to be her doctor and her surgeon. It was amazing. And I want to tell you about the miracles that we saw. It's, it's truly remarkable.
00:02:09.000 But I want to tie it into news of the day, because some of the stuff that we're talking about is nonsense because of the miracles of technology that are coming our way quickly.
00:02:21.380 So if you read CNN or anybody else, they will downplay the Bernie Sanders and the Elizabeth Warren fight because they're now sending signals. Can we, can we stop this, stop this fight because they don't want to eat their own.
00:02:40.380 But this is what happens at this point. You got to eat your own Warren. Warren wouldn't shake Bernie Sanders hand, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I don't really care about really any of that.
00:02:50.960 I don't think the American people care about that. If he said, you know, you know, a woman, a woman can't win. He's just wrong. He's just wrong. It has to be the right person.
00:03:04.520 But he didn't say that. Warren is totally just trying to take shots at him. I mean, you know, he, what he probably said is what I think he explained last night, which was, you know, that, that Donald Trump is going to take cheap shots at women and it's going to make it difficult.
00:03:20.140 Like that's a very standard line of thought. And you know what he may have thought a woman can't win because he's going to swing hard and they won't be able to swing hard back or whatever his, his theory is, if he even said that.
00:03:34.680 But that's the same as Buddha judge can't win. Buddha judge won't be able to win because he is perceived as anti-Christian in some groups.
00:03:49.260 He is also a homosexual, which is not cool with the African American group. He's too young. He's too inexperienced, whatever.
00:03:58.800 So, I mean, it's silly. It's a political calculation. It's not an anti-woman thing.
00:04:05.540 It's ridiculous that they're going through this, but I did want to play only one part of this exchange.
00:04:12.200 And that is the CNN insane. This is, I've never heard anything like it. So she asks Bernie Sanders, did you say that?
00:04:23.200 He says, absolutely not. I did not. And you can find all these clips of me saying things about women.
00:04:30.240 And how would I possibly say that Hillary Clinton won the popular vote? So how could I possibly have said that?
00:04:37.540 Then listen to the follow-up. After he says that, she follows up with Elizabeth Warren. Listen to this.
00:04:43.240 Senator Sanders, I do want to be clear here. You're saying that you never told Senator Warren that a woman could not win the election.
00:04:51.280 That is correct.
00:04:52.840 Senator Warren, what did you think when Senator Sanders told you a woman could not win the election?
00:05:00.240 I disagreed. Stop. Unreal.
00:05:01.780 This is what usually happens to a conservative. This is the way they treat conservatives. No matter what we say, it is their way.
00:05:15.080 You'll never be able to prove it otherwise. Whatever your intent was, whatever you really meant, it doesn't matter to them.
00:05:22.240 I've not seen them do it to a Democratic Socialist.
00:05:27.740 But that's one of the most remarkable moments from a reporter that tells you everything you need to know about the press today.
00:05:35.780 Yeah, because you can ask that question in a difficult way to both of them, and it's fair.
00:05:40.580 And that's the way it should be.
00:05:41.840 Right. You could say to Bernie, like, hey, why'd you say this? And then you could say to her, he says he didn't even say that.
00:05:46.860 Why are you saying he did?
00:05:47.760 Exactly. And that's a totally fair way of asking those questions.
00:05:50.280 That is what a journalist is supposed to do.
00:05:52.600 They decided that she was telling the truth.
00:05:56.520 This individual decided that she was telling the truth instead of putting them both under the heat lamp and making them sweat and let the American people decide which one's telling the truth.
00:06:10.100 Now, part of this is the initial story that Bernie said this is a CNN report.
00:06:14.980 Now, the Washington Post has witnesses and sources that say Bernie didn't say it.
00:06:22.900 So I don't know if they're just trying to give their own report credibility or what, but that was an embarrassing moment.
00:06:29.620 I mean, you cannot ask that question.
00:06:31.480 It was completely unfair.
00:06:32.660 The audience laughed at it.
00:06:34.320 Yeah.
00:06:34.780 Laughed at it.
00:06:35.600 And it's partially, it could be that they believe Bernie Sanders can't beat Donald Trump and Elizabeth Warren can.
00:06:41.540 I don't see how you'd believe that in watching her performances.
00:06:44.720 I am not impressed at all.
00:06:46.800 I think she's custom built to be defeated by Donald Trump.
00:06:49.820 Look, here's what we are.
00:06:51.140 Here's what we're fighting.
00:06:53.320 And, and I know this firsthand and I'll, I'll tell you a story later.
00:06:58.080 But what we're fighting is people that are burned out in the news.
00:07:03.140 And I hear this from everybody, my friends, me, me.
00:07:06.300 I, I, I don't, I can't consume the news on, on cable television anymore the way he's do.
00:07:15.740 Can't.
00:07:16.680 It's just too frustrating.
00:07:18.560 It's, I know what everybody's going to say.
00:07:20.860 It's, it's lies, manipulation, and spin, and it's coming from everywhere.
00:07:27.240 And I know enough of the facts to just go, oh my God, I can't, you, you have got to be.
00:07:34.920 Every time I turn on the TV, within 45 seconds, I am saying, you have got to be kidding me.
00:07:41.380 Because I know the facts.
00:07:45.120 Most Americans don't know the facts.
00:07:47.100 So they get their news from these places in sound bites and in headlines, not even the stories, just headlines.
00:07:56.860 They've made up their mind that Donald Trump is a monster.
00:08:01.060 So it doesn't matter who's running against him.
00:08:05.600 You've got a large number of people that without any basis, other than Donald Trump not being helpful in this department,
00:08:15.160 who just believe that he's out of control and unstable.
00:08:18.920 And they want him out.
00:08:21.420 And so it doesn't matter if it's Bernie Sanders or it's Pete Buttigieg.
00:08:25.260 Judge, he'll get, he'll get 48%, whoever it is, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, the Antichrist,
00:08:35.040 will get about 40, 40 to 48% guaranteed.
00:08:41.400 Because there's just people are not going to change their minds.
00:08:43.600 They're just not going to do it.
00:08:44.860 And the same thing for Donald Trump, right?
00:08:46.660 Correct.
00:08:46.860 If he's going to get 40 to 48%, whatever that is, and then they're going to be fighting about everybody else.
00:08:52.260 So the game changers here are the ones that will be able to tell the truth about both sides.
00:09:02.860 The only people that will have any credibility during this election to be able to sway people are the people who don't really like either of them for different reasons.
00:09:18.560 That are not, that are saying, look, I, you know, I like this person for this reason.
00:09:24.380 I don't like this person for this reason.
00:09:26.420 Because the, the only way to change people's minds is to meet them where they already are.
00:09:35.420 And where most people are is, I don't like the, I don't like what the other side stands for.
00:09:44.340 And what's crazy is there's enough room on that in all of us to be, actually be united.
00:09:53.200 I don't like what the other side stands for.
00:09:57.660 And I don't like what our side stands for.
00:10:02.080 I mean, the way this is being executed, it's one thing what they say, it's another thing what they do.
00:10:08.400 And the craziest thing is, is the guy who looks like he's the most unstable is only being judged by the cover.
00:10:20.340 And when I say the cover, what I mean is, his speech is what he says, not what he does.
00:10:29.020 Judge a person by what they do, not what they say.
00:10:33.920 And Donald Trump is being, and rightly so, because that's the way we've always had to judge people.
00:10:40.080 What is he saying?
00:10:42.320 Well, he's saying crazy things.
00:10:45.080 But what is he actually doing?
00:10:49.060 And the doing part never gets down to the average American.
00:10:53.520 They don't know any of the doing part.
00:10:56.220 They can't give you any policies.
00:10:58.060 In fact, can we just play this clip?
00:10:59.620 We just saw it on the four-minute buzz.
00:11:01.260 It's from the College Fix.
00:11:03.620 And they went to college students, and they put all of the worst dictators on the planet,
00:11:09.160 and Donald Trump, and asked these people in college, who's the worst?
00:11:15.020 Who's the most dangerous?
00:11:16.140 Listen to this.
00:11:17.120 Of the following five world leaders, which do you think is the greatest danger to world peace?
00:11:21.600 America's President Trump?
00:11:22.520 World peace.
00:11:22.940 China's President Xi?
00:11:24.660 Kim Jong-un in North Korea?
00:11:26.800 Putin in Russia?
00:11:28.000 Or the Supreme Leader of Iran?
00:11:29.540 I would say Trump.
00:11:33.840 I mean, I think it's kind of shown by the most recent actions that it is Trump.
00:11:39.620 I think I would say Trump.
00:11:41.720 I would say Trump, too.
00:11:43.480 I would also say Trump.
00:11:44.520 Many of his leaders are worrying, but I worry most about Trump's erratic behavior and how unpredictable he is.
00:11:49.240 I think having our president be Donald Trump, it is severely dangerous to our country and the world.
00:11:56.880 Peace.
00:11:57.120 I'll have to say our president.
00:11:59.720 Unfortunately, he uses a policy of act first, react later.
00:12:04.320 I think it is Trump.
00:12:06.620 Okay, so we're talking about the Ayatollah, Kim Jong-un, President Xi, President Putin, dictators.
00:12:18.420 And what is it that they're focusing on?
00:12:21.020 He's unstable.
00:12:23.140 Now, let me flip this for you.
00:12:25.080 Is Donald Trump unstable?
00:12:29.120 I don't think he's mentally unstable.
00:12:31.680 That's just the way he is.
00:12:33.340 That's the way he always has operated.
00:12:35.300 He likes a world of chaos, his world of chaos.
00:12:38.860 And he likes press, and he's a firm believer.
00:12:44.680 Any press is good press.
00:12:46.480 So he likes the fight.
00:12:49.960 He likes the chaos.
00:12:51.940 He likes the grind of it all.
00:12:54.080 He's a street brawler.
00:12:55.180 However, let's forget about the packaging.
00:12:59.220 Let's forget about the cover.
00:13:01.340 Let's forget about what he says in tweets and everything else.
00:13:04.740 And I know that's important, but let's just forget about that for a second.
00:13:07.240 They're pointing out that he is unstable in the world.
00:13:14.360 How is he unstable?
00:13:17.920 In fact, how is he unstable in the world?
00:13:21.100 Here's how he's unstable.
00:13:22.520 He's not playing the game the State Department began to play in the 1930s and 40s.
00:13:32.380 That they have a plan for the world, and it's going to be this big united world, and the United States is going to be running it all, and we'll be the policemen.
00:13:42.400 And we'll go and fight these wars that will never really end.
00:13:46.540 This is not some crackpot theory.
00:13:50.520 Read about it in—what's the book?
00:13:55.200 What's the book?
00:13:56.960 1960s.
00:13:57.500 We used to talk about it all the time, Stu.
00:14:01.040 Tragedy and Hope.
00:14:03.720 Tragedy and Hope.
00:14:04.620 Read about it.
00:14:06.140 It outlines it.
00:14:07.460 It was about mutually assured destruction.
00:14:09.920 It's about how we tied our monetary systems together, et cetera, et cetera.
00:14:14.100 Well, you weren't part of that, or our grandparents weren't part of that discussion.
00:14:17.960 It just happened because all of the elites thought that's the way the world should run.
00:14:23.480 And it's been getting us involved in places we shouldn't be involved in.
00:14:28.880 Now, Democrats, you should be in love with Donald Trump's policies on the world
00:14:36.920 because he doesn't want to intervene.
00:14:41.380 The claim has always been that the United States is just this bully.
00:14:45.840 That's what the left has always said.
00:14:47.200 We're a bully.
00:14:48.300 We flex our muscles all around the world, and we tell people how—
00:14:52.160 Well, you've got conservatives agreeing with you.
00:14:54.540 I agree we shouldn't be all over the world flexing our muscles and trying to nation-build.
00:15:00.660 We shouldn't be trying to move democracy into every region of the world by force.
00:15:10.200 We agree.
00:15:12.980 He's being labeled unstable because he's not playing the game
00:15:19.400 that has always been played by every president since Truman.
00:15:26.380 He doesn't buy into it.
00:15:28.620 He doesn't like it.
00:15:29.960 Good news, America.
00:15:31.660 Neither do you.
00:15:35.760 The best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:16:08.940 Yeah, just make it NickDip.com.
00:16:12.100 Boy, I've got to tell you, I was up in New Haven.
00:16:14.240 My father-in-law is up at Yale New Haven Hospital.
00:16:17.200 He's been sick, and so I had to fly up this weekend and be with him.
00:16:20.540 And New Haven, have you ever been in New Haven, Nick?
00:16:23.640 Yes, I used to buy my drugs there.
00:16:25.620 Good.
00:16:26.520 No, I'm kidding.
00:16:27.760 Just aspirin and Advil.
00:16:29.320 Go ahead.
00:16:29.560 But the pizza up in New Haven is completely different, and it is so good.
00:16:38.380 Somebody, and they cook it, I mean, they almost burn it.
00:16:41.980 And so they're pulling something out of the oven, and somebody says,
00:16:47.420 ours is a little burnt.
00:16:51.380 The guy just went, I'm sorry, I didn't hear you.
00:16:53.500 Uh, this is a little burnt.
00:16:56.500 I'm sorry, I didn't hear you.
00:16:58.400 Oh, okay.
00:16:59.520 Never mind.
00:17:00.360 I mean, they just do not fool around with their food.
00:17:03.500 Italians don't fool around with it.
00:17:06.100 What kind of generalization is that?
00:17:07.860 I fool around with my food all the time.
00:17:09.220 Yeah, well, I mean, that's a different story that we should probably not get into.
00:17:12.940 Pepe's.
00:17:13.480 Pepe's is the best pizza.
00:17:15.240 It was voted the best pizza in America.
00:17:17.840 Sally's.
00:17:18.200 Pepe's.
00:17:18.740 Sally's.
00:17:19.620 You went to Sally's?
00:17:20.580 I went to Sally's, yeah.
00:17:21.800 I don't think a woman can cook a pizza better than a man.
00:17:26.560 I never said a woman couldn't be president.
00:17:29.140 I said a Native American woman.
00:17:31.980 Boy, what did you think about it?
00:17:33.080 Did you hear the way the CNN reporter just dismissed everything he said?
00:17:39.400 Glenn, this is why I should be as famous as you.
00:17:42.100 I said, I was live tweeting last night.
00:17:44.280 I said to my manager before the debate started, I said, what's the over-under on a female anchorwoman asking Bernie if he ever said that a woman couldn't become president?
00:17:55.480 My instincts are right on the money.
00:17:57.380 Yeah, and she just, of course, sided with Elizabeth.
00:18:01.880 Can we play this?
00:18:02.880 If you didn't hear this, this is one of the most amazing things I've ever heard in so-called journalism.
00:18:08.000 Listen to this.
00:18:08.600 Senator Sanders, I do want to be clear here.
00:18:11.780 You're saying that you never told Senator Warren that a woman could not win the election.
00:18:17.000 That is correct.
00:18:18.580 Senator Warren, what did you think when Senator Sanders told you a woman could not win the election?
00:18:24.600 I mean, Nick, I've never heard anything like that.
00:18:28.880 You haven't?
00:18:29.680 Have you been watching the media for the last 40 years?
00:18:32.180 I'm dead serious.
00:18:36.220 The media, Hollywood, it's been hijacked by the feminist movement.
00:18:41.520 That's all there is to it.
00:18:42.880 It's all encompassing.
00:18:44.200 It's in commercials.
00:18:45.800 Every commercial is a woman hitting a heavy bag like a boxer.
00:18:49.100 There's a lot of female anger out there.
00:18:52.360 I call it penis envy on a group level.
00:18:55.860 It's just organized penis envy.
00:18:57.820 And I knew that was going to happen.
00:18:59.080 And, but I also, I think Bernie said it.
00:19:04.500 Do you really?
00:19:06.120 I mean, as in a belittling women or just because it was politically his calculation?
00:19:12.720 Political calculation.
00:19:14.140 What's wrong with that?
00:19:15.680 What's wrong with that?
00:19:17.020 Nothing.
00:19:17.800 Right.
00:19:18.180 I mean, if that's your political opinion, that's your political opinion on the way the landscape is.
00:19:23.880 I think it's wrong, but it's, it's his way of saying that this country is still misogynist.
00:19:29.600 And, you know, I mean, he was playing to his job.
00:19:31.380 I'm so sick.
00:19:31.600 I'm so sick of, I'm so sick of that.
00:19:35.080 I'm so, you know, these broads.
00:19:37.700 These people have been lecturing us about how racist the Republicans are.
00:19:47.360 Well, all your voters went out and narrowed the field to a bunch of white people that are all billionaires.
00:19:54.420 I mean, what are you saying about the Democratic people that are voting now?
00:19:59.340 That stage was whiter than Bernie's nose hairs last night.
00:20:03.400 It was like, it was like watching the Osmonds snorting coke in a snowstorm.
00:20:06.800 It was very, very light.
00:20:08.340 I keep doing drug references.
00:20:09.360 I don't even do drugs.
00:20:10.240 I don't know.
00:20:10.700 But, but, but, but wasn't that just, just six white people on stage just show how hypocritical that party is.
00:20:17.100 And, and, and you say, well, people are saying, well, black voters whittled it down to six.
00:20:23.340 Again, how many black voters right now?
00:20:26.040 You really believe that it's a white libs.
00:20:30.260 Do you really?
00:20:30.660 I, I agree with that, that the party is, the party is run by white intellectuals that just think they know better than everybody else.
00:20:41.140 And those are the real actives right now.
00:20:43.140 I think the rest of the people, I mean, Nick, here's, let me play a clip of something that came from the college fix.
00:20:50.240 And I would like to know how you combat this.
00:20:54.000 Listen to this question from the college fix.
00:20:58.220 Of the following five world leaders, which do you think is the greatest danger to world peace?
00:21:02.820 America's President Trump, China's President Xi, Kim Jong-un in North Korea, Putin in Russia, or the Supreme Leader of Iran?
00:21:13.900 I would say Trump.
00:21:14.980 I mean, I think it's kind of, kind of shown by the most recent actions that it is Trump.
00:21:20.940 I think I would say Trump.
00:21:23.040 I would say Trump, too.
00:21:24.700 I would also say Trump.
00:21:25.740 Many of his leaders are worrying, but I worry most about Trump's erratic behavior and how unpredictable he is.
00:21:30.540 I think having our president be Donald Trump, it is severely dangerous to our country and the world peace.
00:21:39.260 I'll have to say our president.
00:21:40.940 Unfortunately, he uses a policy of act first, react later.
00:21:45.520 I think it is.
00:21:46.200 I think it is Trump.
00:21:46.900 Interesting.
00:21:49.220 Act first, react later.
00:21:51.360 Shouldn't a leader be somebody who acts and is not reacting all the time?
00:21:56.840 Maybe that's me.
00:21:57.980 So these people, I don't think, have any clue as to who Putin is, who Xi is, who the Ayatollah is.
00:22:05.300 They don't have any clue.
00:22:06.980 And most of these voters, I think, and I could say this about the Republicans, too.
00:22:14.400 Everybody's just unplugging for the news.
00:22:16.620 So we're a bunch of experts that know exactly what we believe without having any real facts.
00:22:23.240 And the people who are going to vote for Bernie Sanders or the Antichrist are going to be voting against Donald Trump because they think they know who he is.
00:22:35.540 When you say the Antichrist, you mean Hillary's going to jump in?
00:22:40.380 Yeah, well, I wouldn't put it past her.
00:22:43.080 Yeah, but it's indoctrination.
00:22:45.580 The only way you're going to change that, look, the media, all of academia.
00:22:51.500 I mean, these kids and then the Internet, they're just swimming in this garbage.
00:22:57.700 And they don't know how to think of themselves.
00:22:59.740 And I'm so sick of hearing that Donald Trump is so erratic.
00:23:03.580 And Bernie last night, he's a danger to this country.
00:23:06.380 What are you talking about?
00:23:07.840 The economy has never been better.
00:23:09.820 He crushed ISIS in five minutes.
00:23:11.900 And he just scared the crap out of the mullahs in Iran.
00:23:16.060 So what are they looking for in a president?
00:23:18.280 I don't get it.
00:23:19.780 I don't know.
00:23:20.200 You have to get rid of women's studies on college campuses.
00:23:22.760 Everything will be fine.
00:23:23.520 I will tell you, Nick, we have to find a way to approach people who just think they know when they don't have any idea.
00:23:35.680 They're not paying attention.
00:23:37.300 I mean, you could say that Donald Trump is a wrecking ball and he is unstable.
00:23:42.400 If you look at his tweets, it's like crazy town.
00:23:45.980 But that's not his actions.
00:23:47.520 His actions, you just hit it, I was going to say, you just hit it on the head.
00:23:51.360 Because the left believes words, you know, as dangerous as actions.
00:23:56.340 They're the same as actions.
00:23:57.240 Yes.
00:23:58.100 And we have to get them out of the mentality.
00:24:00.760 But that all comes from political correctness.
00:24:03.840 The definition is controlling people's behavior through the language.
00:24:06.900 And they have mastered that.
00:24:09.160 And I just don't understand this.
00:24:12.440 I don't know what they're looking for in a president.
00:24:14.140 And he's going to crush, can I just say this, I hope it's Bernie.
00:24:18.900 And Bernie's my favorite lefty, not because of his politics, but he really believes the garbage.
00:24:23.800 At least he's authentic and miserable.
00:24:25.580 I agree with you.
00:24:26.280 I really find him entertaining.
00:24:28.120 It's like having Larry David there last night.
00:24:30.300 Yes.
00:24:31.340 And when there were a few minutes when he didn't talk, I was like, something's missing in this debate.
00:24:35.200 And then they get back to him.
00:24:36.240 He is, I mean, but wouldn't that be great, a billionaire capitalist just crushing this socialist and finally putting this to rest?
00:24:45.240 Or will it put it to rest, Glenn?
00:24:46.560 No, I don't think it, I don't think it will.
00:24:50.600 I just don't think it will.
00:24:52.280 But it is interesting to me that we could have a candidate that is an avowed socialist that has, that held up the Soviet Union as a great example of what we could be.
00:25:10.280 I mean, it's, it's crazy.
00:25:12.960 And a white guy millionaire who is against white guy millionaires and a really old guy telling all of the young people exactly what to do because you can't trust the really old guy that's in the office now.
00:25:29.720 It's, it's, I just, I've never seen anything like it.
00:25:32.400 Did you, did you say a white millionaire?
00:25:34.280 Did you mean billionaire?
00:25:35.160 Are you talking about Steyer?
00:25:36.340 No, no, no.
00:25:37.020 Bernie is a white millionaire.
00:25:38.660 Steyer is a billionaire.
00:25:41.060 But Steyer doesn't have a chance.
00:25:43.940 Did you see his head when he was talking last night?
00:25:48.380 Steyer, did you notice?
00:25:49.580 No, I didn't.
00:25:50.840 Michael J, you know, Michael J. Fox was throwing his shoes at the TV saying, sit still, will you?
00:25:56.320 It looked like a bobblehead in the back of a Chevy on the highway.
00:26:00.440 I'm a self-hating white guy and I'm very rich and I should be ashamed of that.
00:26:03.700 I don't even know how Steyer made his money.
00:26:05.500 I really, what is he?
00:26:07.160 What did he do?
00:26:07.720 He's a hedge fund guy.
00:26:09.480 I mean, they kept hitting him on a lot of the money he made, at least early on, was oil.
00:26:13.400 Gas and oil and coal.
00:26:15.000 He said, which is hilarious because he's Mr. Climate Guy now.
00:26:18.440 Yeah, but he said, I learned my lesson.
00:26:20.440 You know, after I made my money, I learned my lesson.
00:26:23.660 Yeah, they all evolve on the issues after they have six billion in the bank.
00:26:26.860 Yeah.
00:26:27.400 And I still say, Bloomberg, I'm telling you, I said this, I interviewed Donald Trump Jr.
00:26:33.460 And I, this was a couple of months ago.
00:26:35.380 And I said, I'm telling you, this is before Bloomberg announced he was going to get in.
00:26:38.560 And I said, I think he's going to be, he's going to show up in the end.
00:26:42.960 He's going to be a factor somehow.
00:26:44.440 Well, Steve Dace, who is part of the network, said he made 10 predictions.
00:26:50.200 And they were pretty stunning.
00:26:51.980 And they could happen.
00:26:53.740 He said that Bernie Sanders, the first four states are going to go to four different candidates.
00:26:58.920 He said, then Bernie Sanders will rock it, but not claim the nomination.
00:27:06.140 And it'll be a brokered convention.
00:27:08.120 They're going to try to get Michelle Obama to run, but she won't run.
00:27:13.240 And he says, in the end, it's going to be Bernie Sanders.
00:27:16.320 No, I disagree.
00:27:18.000 You think it'll be Bloomberg?
00:27:19.980 Bloomberg is somebody else that we don't know about yet.
00:27:23.200 You know what?
00:27:23.760 I will go with you on somebody we don't know about.
00:27:26.780 Alex Cora of the Red Sox is going to go.
00:27:29.760 You know, they're Democrats.
00:27:31.060 Why don't we just get somebody from the Astros?
00:27:33.340 Oh, good sports joke.
00:27:36.220 It would have been a good sports joke if Alex Cora wasn't on the Astros during the scandal.
00:27:40.720 You were very close to this one.
00:27:43.020 Oh, man, I missed him.
00:27:44.780 Yet another sports failure.
00:27:46.220 Another.
00:27:46.900 I thought I had a touchdown or a field goal or something on that.
00:27:52.100 Yeah, banging a trash can.
00:27:53.420 Thanks so much, Nick.
00:27:54.200 I appreciate it.

00:28:36.180 I mean, I'm going to totally geek out here for a second.
00:28:40.960 Do you get your solar weather report every morning?
00:28:45.440 Because you can.
00:28:46.280 Ben Davidson is the founder, creator of SpaceWeatherNews.com.
00:28:54.300 For some reason, we've come to believe that the sun has nothing to do with anything.
00:29:00.540 Space has nothing to do with, you know, our weather or, you know, perhaps earthquakes or volcanoes or anything like that.
00:29:07.520 And we also have been taught that the North and South Pole are pretty stationary.
00:29:13.800 And that is untrue as well.
00:29:16.080 There have been some cataclysmic events in the history of our planet.
00:29:20.820 The last one happened about, what, 780,000 years ago when the poles actually flipped.
00:29:27.080 And it is a it's a kind of an earth shattering thing.
00:29:31.740 It usually happens about every 300,000 years.
00:29:34.500 Like I said, we're almost up to 800,000 years now.
00:29:37.700 And the poles are moving and they're moving faster and faster.
00:29:41.620 Or so it seems Ben Davidson is here to give us the accurate account of all of this.
00:29:47.720 Hello, Ben.
00:29:48.180 How are you?
00:29:49.480 I'm doing very well, sir.
00:29:51.380 It is honored.
00:29:52.360 Total honor to be back here.
00:29:54.080 And I have to apologize at the start because I will have to correct the number that you just gave.
00:30:00.520 That's fine.
00:30:00.920 This is a 12,000 year magnetic excursion cycle.
00:30:06.040 In addition to those long ones where the poles flip and then they stay there, there are also these much shorter ones.
00:30:12.340 About every 12,000 or 13,000 years, we get a magnetic excursion, which is a rapid flip and flip back.
00:30:19.560 Unfortunately for us, even though it is a rapid flip and flip back, it does come with a considerable amount of time where the magnetic field, the shield that our planet has against solar flares and supernova, solar wind goes down.
00:30:32.580 Okay, so I wasn't aware of the 12,000 year flip and then flip back.
00:30:38.120 And so just, you know, breaking it down for, you know, dummies like me, the North and South Pole, they drift.
00:30:46.480 They don't necessarily lock together like one big magnet, but let's just say they go on this excursion and they start, you know, the North Pole starts heading down, you know, into Siberia, which it is now, starts to head down.
00:30:59.100 And it kind of, it locks into place, you know, it does a quick flip.
00:31:04.460 Does it go east and west or can it go all the way and reverse the poles on an excursion?
00:31:10.060 You know, there's, there's conflicting evidence everywhere you look all around the world.
00:31:17.020 The only thing that we are certain of, and there's actually a fun story behind this that became relevant just this past fall.
00:31:24.860 What we know for certain is that we have these magnetic events about every 12 to 13,000 years.
00:31:31.960 There are extreme hardships, both climate-wise and, you know, extending to the more extreme extinction-level events.
00:31:41.060 And at the same time, they're noticing that a lot of times the climate swings to cold during those events, at least at the start of them.
00:31:49.860 And so in terms of, you know, where are the poles going to end up, what is specifically going to happen at this location, that location, we're not sure.
00:31:58.040 Now, the interesting story about this is we've been sort of following the, the really nerdy peer-reviewed literature and all of the top journals on this for quite some time.
00:32:07.640 And then this year, a Harvard professor published an article in an astrophysical journal.
00:32:13.500 And by the way, astro, that, that stuff in space, we should be having this in an earth-related journal, geophysics.
00:32:19.060 And he said that there was really no way that you could get an extinction-level event from these 12,000-year magnetic excursions because the amount of solar light that would come in wouldn't be enough to kill everything.
00:32:34.740 Now, in addition to that not being true whatsoever, there's also more than just the solar light there.
00:32:41.860 And so there's the UV we know about that makes us tan and gives us suns, but there's also the protons and the electrons.
00:32:48.520 And these are the things that we're discovering do have a significant effect on the weather, on atmospheric chemistry.
00:32:54.280 Nobody wants to be breathing acid rain.
00:32:57.220 These things have an effect on earthquakes and on volcanoes and other things like that.
00:33:02.000 And we sort of got in an academic tiff, if you will, an academic fight with this.
00:33:09.080 And then a few weeks later, the number one earth physics journal in the world called Reviews of Geophysics is out of this country here from the American Geophysical Union.
00:33:18.660 They came down and definitively stamped these things as probably the most prolific, if I can put it this terrible way, killers of species on this planet.
00:33:28.620 Once you're getting outside of things like, oh, you know, a huge meteor hit and it killed 90 percent of the, you know, those are like the super rare ones.
00:33:37.700 These are the things that happen, these magnetic excursions.
00:33:40.780 These are the things that really challenge species, that take species out, that really, really make life more difficult for life on this planet.
00:33:51.320 All right. So, Ben, what I want to talk to you about is I want to, if we can, to have time, cover the earthquakes.
00:33:58.620 Like, I mean, you know, I don't know if any of these are connected, but we just had a really powerful earthquake in, oh, shoot, in, all I can think of is San Juan, in Puerto Rico.
00:34:14.200 Puerto Rico.
00:34:14.580 Yeah. So, and quickly, let me just cover this. Do you think this is related to what we're talking about?
00:34:22.080 In a way, yes. Earthquakes are going to happen no matter what.
00:34:27.020 And an earthquake would have eventually hit Puerto Rico again no matter what.
00:34:30.440 Right.
00:34:30.660 But the sort of thing that we're noticing is the very first people who broke these studies and who really just had a hint of what they call a correlation, a connection between the power of the sun and these earthquakes and the weather and the volcanoes.
00:34:45.760 They had this hint, and it was enough to be what they call statistically significant, but it still was just a – it was like a slight nudge.
00:34:53.100 Oh, yes, the sun does nudge these things.
00:34:55.540 But we're noticing that it's taking less and less for the sun to give that nudge as Earth's shield against the sun is weakening.
00:35:03.720 It's the only thing standing in between what we have now and what we've lived with our whole lives and the sun having complete control over the planet.
00:35:12.340 If you – if people think of the planet like, you know, the Starship Enterprise or, you know, some spaceship, what we have, the electromagnetic field, is shields up.
00:35:27.660 And we put these shields, you know, up automatically.
00:35:32.180 Nature does it through the electromagnetic field.
00:35:34.480 And that's stopping all of the junk or the bullets or the, you know, phaser fire from the sun.
00:35:42.060 It stops all of that.
00:35:43.960 But as our poles start to drift, those shields go down, and they cause all kinds of problems, from earthquakes to severe weather.
00:35:56.220 I'm really quite interested also in technology.
00:36:00.040 We have now – we talked about, you know, oh, my gosh, the atmosphere and the – what do you call it?
00:36:09.580 The big holes that were above the South Pole, I think.
00:36:14.100 Ozone.
00:36:14.540 Yeah, the ozone layer.
00:36:15.760 Everybody freaked out about the ozone layer having a hole in it.
00:36:18.980 In the electromagnetic field, aren't we starting to see holes in the field?
00:36:24.740 Yes, and we're starting to see some parts change more rapidly than others.
00:36:30.920 So, specifically, the scariest part of the magnetic field right now is sitting atop of Brazil and the South Atlantic.
00:36:39.780 They call it the South Atlantic anomaly.
00:36:42.340 And the explanation for why it's there really depends on who you ask.
00:36:47.860 It does happen to be the exact point on Earth where both poles are moving away.
00:36:53.740 And so, interestingly enough, this isn't like a clock where if one poles at 12 and one's at 6, they're both, you know, going clockwise or counterclockwise.
00:37:02.780 They're actually going in the same direction.
00:37:04.340 And so, while the North Pole is about to cross onto the coastline of Siberia, the South Magnetic Pole, much, much earlier, left the continent of Antarctica.
00:37:14.280 And it is racing up into the Indian Ocean just south of Australia.
00:37:18.340 Now, if you can close your eyes and picture what the Earth looks like, Siberia and Australia and the Indian Ocean, they're on the same longitude.
00:37:26.140 These things are on a collision point.
00:37:27.940 And if you take that collision point and you look at the other side of the planet, that's where the fields are getting the weakest the fastest.
00:37:33.620 And that's where it's probably going to be the scariest first.
00:37:36.480 It's almost like Brazil can be our canary in the coal mine.
00:37:40.080 So, how long before you think we actually start to recognize this and start to have real technological problems or health problems?
00:37:48.460 Well, we are...
00:37:49.840 Because this is happening rapidly, right?
00:37:51.560 This is not like 12,000 years.
00:37:53.900 It's slowly been happening.
00:37:54.920 This is now moving quickly, the poles.
00:37:57.640 Oh, much, much, much more quickly.
00:37:59.900 And just to give you an idea, you know, Earth lost about 10% of its strength in about 150 years from 1850 to 2000.
00:38:07.960 We lost another 10% just in the last 20 years.
00:38:11.780 And so that you could just do some extrapolation math there and see where things are headed and how fast they're headed there.
00:38:18.380 Now, we are at a point where we are very, very lucky in this last round of solar activity, which happened in the earlier part of the last decade.
00:38:28.400 It did give us a lot of what we normally see.
00:38:30.740 There were solar flares.
00:38:31.800 There were those ejections of those protons and electrons, phaser bullets, as you put it.
00:38:36.420 I really like that, by the way.
00:38:38.780 And we were seeing that weaker and weaker space weather would be able to give that nudge.
00:38:44.480 Now, we mentioned that already in terms of the earthquakes and the weather, but that same thing goes for the technology as well.
00:38:51.380 And so there was one solar storm we had in 2015.
00:38:55.780 And, you know, you look back over the record of solar storms and you don't even pick this one out.
00:38:59.920 It doesn't jump out at you at all.
00:39:01.220 It was an average one.
00:39:03.360 But for some reason, it happened at a time when the Earth's magnetic field didn't handle it well.
00:39:11.500 There were airline problems up the east coast of the United States, in New Zealand, in Norway.
00:39:16.680 There were major grid problems in numerous South American and Central American countries.
00:39:21.920 Transformers were blowing in some parts of Africa and India.
00:39:26.260 It was really sort of the thing where I was wondering how close we came.
00:39:31.680 And, of course, the reason why not every little burp from the sun does this, you know, we are on a steady decline here with the magnetic field situation.
00:39:40.960 But if you were to zoom in on that steady decline, it looks like the stock market.
00:39:44.660 It does go up and down even though there is a longer trend downward.
00:39:48.300 And so 2015 and actually 2014, we could notice that we were in a real downtip.
00:39:54.140 2016, 2017, we started to come back up and we peaked sometime around 2018 or early 2019.
00:40:01.740 And we are getting ready for what they call our next geomagnetic jerk.
00:40:06.280 It's a rapid jerk.
00:40:07.760 They think it comes from the core and it plays a considerable role in how the magnetic field is doing.
00:40:13.980 It's expected to happen within the next 12 to 18 months.
00:40:17.560 And my only hope, really, I can say for it, is that we don't get the same level of acceleration that we got last time.
00:40:25.160 Because if we go from losing 5% a century to 5% a decade and then we take that same jump and we lose 5% a year, we have 20 years to lose the whole thing and we're already down 20%, you know, 20%.
00:40:39.760 But we don't lose all of it.
00:40:41.380 It comes back, right?
00:40:42.800 Correct.
00:40:43.300 Correct.
00:40:43.520 It's the sort of thing where everything is deteriorating rapidly.
00:40:53.880 Some science says it could happen in a matter of a day.
00:40:57.860 But if you stretch that out two weeks, that's more than enough time.
00:41:03.120 And it looks like the field will stay in this situation for probably months to a couple of years.
00:41:07.440 All right, Ben, it's always a delight talking to you.
00:41:13.040 No way out.
00:41:14.240 No way out.
00:41:15.540 Here's the good news.
00:41:16.980 The good news is this is the magnetic excursion cycle.
00:41:21.320 And since it happens every 12,000 years, how many times have humans survived it?
00:41:27.600 Yeah, okay.
00:41:28.280 It is one thing to look at the scariness of the situation.
00:41:30.940 We had one happen 60,000 years ago, about 45,000 to 48,000 years ago, 36,000 years ago, 24,000 years ago.
00:41:38.800 The one 12,000 years ago is called the Gothenburg Magnetic Excursion.
00:41:42.760 Here we are, 12,000 years, 13,000 years from the last one approximately, and Earth's magnetic field is changing like it hasn't changed in thousands of years.
00:41:51.560 That's pretty clear of a picture, and there's only so many coincidences one can ignore.
00:41:55.680 But it would also be unwise to recognize that every person in the world is not the descendant of a survivor of the last one, and we have this in our DNA.
00:42:07.360 We are all survivors.
00:42:10.040 Ben, thank you so much.
00:42:10.980 Really good to talk to you.
00:42:13.720 You can follow him at TheRealS0s.
00:42:17.680 TheRealS0s, or is it S-O-s?
00:42:20.160 Yeah, S-O-s.
00:42:21.840 The easiest thing, yeah.
00:42:23.160 The easiest thing.
00:42:23.800 Just look for Space Weather News or Suspicious Observers, and whatever Internet search you're using, they're going to know what you're looking for.
00:42:29.800 Okay, SpaceWeatherNews.com is where I go.
00:42:32.780 Thank you so much, Ben.
00:42:33.560 I appreciate it.
