Transcript
00:00:17.660
Alright, I'd like to give you an update on CPAC.
00:00:20.140
I don't know who's booking the speakers and attendees for CPAC this year,
00:00:27.880
You know what? Maybe Steve Bannon stole one of those mask machines from Mission Impossible.
00:00:37.200
And he has made himself into somebody else, the booking agent at CPAC.
00:00:44.740
Because that's the only explanation that I'll accept.
00:00:49.220
For starters, why are we importing European right-wing populists?
00:01:05.280
Sebastian Gorka, who worked in the Hungarian politics and had ties to the far right.
00:01:12.300
Now, I can't see a reason to invite any of these three to the American Conservative Conference,
00:01:26.580
European populism and European nationalism is rearing its ugly head.
00:01:33.780
And we have always preached as Conservatives that there is a difference between European Conservatives and the right
00:02:08.480
he attended a campaign rally with Nigel Farage last September.
00:02:14.900
Oh, and he worked with Gorka at the White House and at Breitbart.
00:02:19.160
I mean, I'm not saying that Steve Bannon is running around CPAC in a Matt Schlapp mask,
00:02:25.700
but I don't know what happened to my friend Matt Schlapp.
00:02:32.620
there's also a growing list of peculiar attendees.
00:02:36.600
One CPAC panel in particular includes a list of characters so odd
00:02:41.800
that they should change the name from social media censorship
00:02:53.460
She's the organizer of the Mohamed Cartoon Contest.
00:03:12.640
because Jim Hoft is the founder of the Gateway Pundit.
00:03:20.300
that he could almost be called the inventor of fake news.
00:03:44.100
and Gateway Pundit should be ashamed of themselves.
00:03:50.240
Does CPAC and the Board of Directors have anything to say
00:04:00.120
are you signing off on all of these speakers and invitees?
00:04:03.300
I'm curious because you're rolling out a pretty impressive list
00:04:17.620
I mean, imagine what CPAC is going to look like in four years.
00:04:20.700
If all of this is sanctioned by the entire body
00:05:10.420
almost dressed up to sit in front of the television
00:05:47.060
Billy Graham is probably the only televangelist
00:06:36.040
I have to talk to Billy Graham about something,
00:57:47.220
She was sold at least seven times to different ISIS elements
00:57:58.620
We've been, she's been in one of our rehabilitation facilities,
00:58:20.420
in this captivity where they're confronted every day
00:58:23.320
with rape, with the possibility of their organs
00:58:29.980
And you can help by going to the nazarenefund.org,
00:59:10.300
This is purported to be a video of a young girl
00:59:57.660
So, they're not using anesthesia, that little girl.
01:00:05.160
If that is an actual video of what it purports to be,
01:00:13.240
We have Dave Lopez, the Nazarene Fund Director of Operations,
01:00:17.360
and Tim Ballard, who is the Chairman of the Nazarene Fund
01:00:20.660
and Founder and CEO of Operation Underground Railroad.
01:00:24.240
And you guys have been looking into the organ harvesting.
01:00:34.260
But here is, these are our operatives going into a place
01:00:42.820
where they were holding people to have their organs harvest.
01:00:47.220
You see them tied up with bags over their head.
01:01:00.280
But this is a different video than what we've already seen.
01:01:12.420
It was the only time that the captors left for a minute,
01:01:16.120
and they were watching, and they had minutes to get them out,
01:01:18.700
go in and get them out, and they were successful.
01:01:20.640
And they're not, dead of night, they're not laying down.
01:01:27.460
These are Christians and Yazidis that were about to have their organs harvested for cash.
01:01:34.260
That's the kind of brutality that is happening in the Middle East.
01:01:38.360
And you, because of you and your donation to the Nazarene Fund,
01:01:46.820
No, no, there's no one else that is going after this illicit network right now.
01:01:51.240
I have in a confidential report that the U.S. and Iraqi forces refused to get involved in rescuing.
01:02:04.780
I've heard the same report, and I personally can't verify it, but I've heard the same thing as well.
01:02:13.280
For some reason, the world doesn't care about this.
01:02:15.700
I mean, this is Schindler's List kind of stuff.
01:02:18.380
This is going in in the middle of the night and rescuing people.
01:02:22.960
And I just think it's a noble, noble cause that even $5 will put your name in the Book of Life.
01:02:42.720
I mean, the people that we're rescuing, pulling out of these places,
01:02:46.360
they can chart their family history to the first century.
01:02:49.500
I mean, these are the Jewish people who followed Jesus and became Christians
01:02:58.060
You're reading literally about their ancestors when we read the Bible.
01:03:04.580
And we're actually facilitating a lot of them to bring them back into the zones
01:03:10.940
We want them to resettle, to continue to build their history, which is all of our history.
01:03:30.420
But the people there, tell a story about the priest that is one of our partners that saved
01:03:43.420
So they're finding these sacred Christian, Jewish Christian, even Muslim sites.
01:03:47.740
I mean, these are prophets like Nahum that bring everyone together.
01:03:52.140
They blew up Jonah's tomb already, that ISIS did.
01:03:56.620
And this noble Catholic priest went in, took the bones of Nahum, ran them into the desert,
01:04:03.820
into the hills, buried them in a safe place that only he knew about.
01:04:06.860
And so when ISIS came, they couldn't find them.
01:04:09.540
He since has gone back and put those bones back in their place.
01:04:13.700
But I mean, these people, they understand the power of history and the power of this heritage.
01:04:21.240
And that's also what we are doing is trying to preserve that for everybody.
01:04:26.880
Yeah, because they are literally trying to erase the people and then any traces of the people of God.
01:04:35.120
No, so these Chaldean priests, they took over, I think, in 1948.
01:04:40.380
For a long time, this site, the caretakers were the Jewish people until 1948.
01:04:46.720
And they left, and the Christians took it over.
01:04:48.920
But these are sites that are common for Muslims, for Christians, for Jews.
01:04:54.000
These are sites where everyone can come together and agree on our past.
01:04:57.340
And these are prophets that are revered by all the major three religions.
01:05:05.680
Just because these shrines were taken, made by Jews and cared for by Christians?
01:05:12.360
I think to them, it's about replacing the history and making sure that any other claims of history
01:05:20.900
I think it's a simple power play so that the history is erased,
01:05:24.720
people can start new with their caliphate concept,
01:05:27.560
and no one asks any more questions about the history.
01:05:37.880
I mean, what they did is they just went back into Syria,
01:05:40.020
into the places where they're just power vacuums.
01:05:42.820
There's places throughout Syria where no one controls.
01:05:46.000
And a lot of these guys also just went back in, you know,
01:05:49.120
took off their black garb and went back into the population.
01:05:57.640
But the only thing that's common, the only thing that doesn't change is the Christians
01:06:01.720
who are always going to be the ones who are persecuted by whoever is in power.
01:06:06.260
So unless we go in and extract them and rehabilitate them, they're done.
01:06:18.840
It's more than we have raised for the Nazarene Fund.
01:06:22.080
That would be over double what we have already raised.
01:06:26.800
And we are a long, long way from meeting those goals.
01:06:31.180
This is not something where we get corporate donations or anything else.
01:06:37.800
And, you know, as Dave said, we're the only ones on the ground doing this.
01:06:48.020
And if you want to be a part of saving these Christians,
01:06:54.520
you want to be a part of getting them to safety,
01:06:57.560
getting them recovery, please join us at thenazarenefund.org,
01:07:06.040
When I say recovery, can we talk a little bit about, like,
01:07:08.980
this week we have been playing the interviews that I did when I went down to Mexico.
01:07:23.760
They were slaves, literal, you know, what do you call them,
01:07:31.120
And one of them would not even say that they were a slave.
01:07:38.180
And I said, at the very end, I said, hold up a blank piece of paper,
01:07:41.940
and I want you to say your name and say, I was a slave,
01:07:45.460
but my life is a blank sheet of paper, and I'm the only author of my story.
01:07:56.700
The one who had burn marks all over her face and her neck and chain marks all over her.
01:08:17.400
But this came at a high price to get these women help.
01:08:28.420
They just rescue and then say, well, there you are.
01:08:37.820
We won't even lift a finger, as you know, in an operation unless that aftercare part is set up,
01:08:43.520
completely ready to receive those victims who will become survivors and become thrivers.
01:08:51.080
We're going to have them until they're on their own.
01:08:56.040
As you saw, you've seen our aftercare partners.
01:08:59.880
These three women that we're featuring on the show this week, these three women are all part of the Forbes 100 Most Powerful Women of Mexico now.
01:09:13.160
One of them was invited to speak to all of the heads of all of the major religions.
01:09:19.320
I mean, everybody was there, including the Pope.
01:09:23.800
And she stood up and she was talking about something.
01:09:27.740
And about halfway through, she said, you know, I feel like I need to pray for you.
01:09:36.480
I can't even imagine the cojones it takes to say to the Pope, you know what?
01:09:41.820
I'm going to keep you in my prayers, buddy, because you really need them.
01:09:46.380
It was it was it's quite amazing what these women have turned into.
01:09:55.060
And that's thanks to OUR and and people like you who are contributing.
01:10:04.020
Tim, we'll have you on tomorrow for television.
01:10:11.440
I I would I know that we're not alone praying for you every night when we say our prayers as a family.
01:10:19.040
We pray for all of the guys who are operating all over the world trying to rescue these people as well as the slaves themselves.
01:10:31.020
The Nazarene Fund dot org, the Nazarene Fund dot org.
01:10:37.540

An episode you don't want to miss with the video of the rescues and.
01:10:51.000
Just an amazing story that the world has yet to hear.
01:11:01.020
Blinds dot com is the best at what they do instead of, you know, me blabbing on and telling you about my experience, which you already probably know.
01:11:13.020
Let me tell you the experience of Mark from Arizona.
01:11:16.060
He said, I heard about blinds dot com through Glenn Beck.
01:11:18.600
I had faith in his suggestion, so I contacted them.
01:11:22.580
Amazing service, quick delivery and installation was a breeze.
01:11:27.300
I ordered more two weeks later and I feel exactly the same.
01:11:30.240

01:12:23.120
We lost Billy Graham last night, which is a happy day for him and a happy day in some ways for his family.
01:12:45.120
Anyway, but a sad day for us, Billy Graham, if if you're not my age, you might think he was just, oh, he's one of those televangelists.
01:13:00.660
Uh, he was a he was a cut above and, uh, uh, just a different kind of man.
01:13:09.620
Everybody, everybody else is a cheap knockoff of Billy Graham.
01:13:14.560
And I say that with respect to the others, but they would even tell you cheap knockoff of Billy Graham.
01:13:24.540
Um, there's a couple of other things that we've sent destroyers into the Black Sea to send Russia a message.
01:13:38.800
Um, the media is still not giving you the full story on, uh, on Russia and what it means.
01:13:45.160
The media is now starting to, uh, go to people's houses and say, did you know that you were doing a pro Trump rally?
01:13:57.980
Did you know that you were promoting an anti-Trump rally that was paid for and organized by Russia as well?
01:14:05.800
Imagine an indictment comes out that shows that Glenn, you were promoting something like that.
01:14:13.580
I would be all Trump over it saying, oh my gosh.
01:14:20.040
They, they, the very early things that this agency did with Russia, one of the things they did was to plant pro Putin comments on the blaze.com.
01:14:30.700
We told you about it at the time and we told you about it recently again, as it popped back up in the news.
01:14:37.040
It was just in the comments section, but still they targeted the blaze specifically.
01:14:40.800
And this shows this has nothing to do with Trump.
01:14:50.140
It is why they funded pro Trump and anti Trump rallies.
01:14:55.560
But if you are on record promoting one of these rallies and then you have the gall to go out and find someone else who's in the same report, who did the same thing and go harass them on their lawn.
01:15:15.460
Also in the news, Donald Trump is talking about some new things for gun control.
01:15:23.180
We need to explain all of them because on the surface, OK, more background checks.
01:15:31.100
OK, raising the limit on when you can buy a gun.
01:15:37.780
There's some things that you have to be aware of.
01:15:40.620
And then if you're against them, you need to let the president know.
01:15:43.800
Or if you support them, let the president know.
01:15:45.620
But he listens to his supporters and also a very disturbing report.
01:16:07.780
The nonstop media narrative right now is that teenagers are finally going to get gun control laws passed in America.
01:16:25.400
These teens are going to get done with the dumb adults and politicians just refuse to do.
01:16:32.500
For conservatives, even a hint of criticism at this national moment is a lose-lose situation.
01:16:41.060
If you are mocking the teenagers and especially the teenagers from Parkland, Florida and what they're doing, you're moronic.
01:17:01.120
And that's because they're reeling from the horrific murders at their school.
01:17:07.500
And the momentum of their emotions is taking them to Tallahassee and Washington, D.C. to demand that lawmakers act.
01:17:16.100
This is what teenagers do, especially when they're being exploited.
01:17:21.460
The criticism of this is aimed at the ridiculous exploitation of these teenagers and their grief by the mainstream media and now Hollywood.
01:17:35.120
They can't get enough of the teens' emotional appeals for gun controls.
01:17:40.300
The media cannot stop gushing about the urgency and civic engagement of these teens.
01:17:47.080
But they're only interested in the right kind of activism.
01:17:50.380
They don't care that last month thousands of teenagers participated in the March for Life in Washington.
01:17:57.600
Those were teenagers marching for the protection of children.
01:18:06.920
The disgusting part of this scene is not the teenagers chanting for stricter gun control.
01:18:12.200
They're exercising their First Amendment right.
01:18:15.440
It's the mainstream media that is cheering and urging them on so they can continue exploiting their tears.
01:18:22.880
They're cheering for them because they see these teenagers as their avenue to accomplish a key part of the left's controlling agenda.
01:18:31.480
And because the cameras are still rolling, it further inflames the rhetoric and the teams feel validated and empowered and they want to keep it going.
01:18:39.820
And now in comes Steven Spielberg and the Hollywood Horde.
01:18:48.040
He's going to make sure that it's that they get there.
01:19:01.640
The media is starry-eyed over the upcoming March for Our Lives in Washington, D.C.
01:19:13.560
And they're never going to find anything at all wrong with it.
01:19:17.220
Then there's the National School Walkout organized by the Women's March.
01:19:25.020
Well, except for love for NRA members, conservatives, men, anyone who disagrees with them.
01:19:33.200
Look, America wants to talk about solutions, so let's talk about solutions.
01:19:37.580
Let's have the conversation the teens are calling for.
01:19:40.180
Let's figure out ways that we can act right now to protect our children before more are killed.
01:19:48.760
The media coverage of these protests is a one-sided conversation, and the left wants to keep it that way.
01:19:56.360
Has anyone suggested to these teens that more gun control will not guarantee their safety?
01:20:04.460
This is a good opportunity for teenagers to get a reasoned perspective other than the media's single talking point.
01:20:16.020
Progressivism tries to convince you that everything good for you, everything that will protect you, comes from the government.
01:20:34.460
So there are some disturbing signs that our Second Amendment is being, the attack on it is being welcomed by a large number of Americans now,
01:20:55.180
and that this may be the moment of action on the Second Amendment.
01:20:59.480
I had Stu look into all of the polls, and there's one poll that he wants to bring that is quite disturbing if you're a conservative.
01:21:10.860
Trump is now looking to support three potential changes to our gun laws.
01:21:16.620
One, bump stocks he announced last night, banning them.
01:21:23.820
I don't think so either, but I mean, to find the legal way to do it, do you have a problem with that?
01:21:34.460
The idea that you can't make a bump stock ban is even plausible.
01:21:42.860
There's this thing that says, I don't want to act to limit or undermine or encroach on our Second Amendment rights.
01:21:49.080
Another way of saying that is, I don't want to infringe on them.
01:21:52.840
Now, I think you could make a legitimate argument that an accessory like that is not...
01:22:00.200
We've already passed a law that says no automatic...
01:22:10.420
This bump stock is just a way to try to skirt around it.
01:22:17.860
I would agree in our current world, the way that we treat the Second Amendment, that the bump stock ban is something that's totally on the table.
01:22:28.980
I don't think any of this crap is constitutional, to be perfectly honest with you.
01:22:33.400
So, you know, if it was a different Supreme Court, they would agree with us.
01:22:41.160
However, in the world that we're living in, it's a common sense gun measure.
01:22:51.660
They've passed laws that have banned these weapons.
01:22:53.420
It's been challenged in the Supreme Court and held up.
01:22:57.200
However, that being said, that is where we are.
01:23:00.060
And so where we are, I think you're right in that this is a way to go around that rule.
01:23:06.840
That being said, it doesn't technically qualify.
01:23:09.760
I don't think what Trump wants to do now is legal.
01:23:13.400
I don't think this is motivated by anything bad.
01:23:17.080
And I think a lot of people would understand it this way.
01:23:20.920
Which is, look, this is simulating automatic gunfire.
01:23:29.240
The way the law is written, it talks about an automatic gunfire is you pull the trigger once
01:23:42.940
And again, I can't believe I'm harder on the Second Amendment than you, of all people.
01:23:45.840
But I would say you can't do it the way that they currently want to do it.
01:23:52.820
Again, yes, it is to get you to fire the gun faster.
01:24:07.460
Now, I'm just talking about the world that we live in.
01:24:12.720
How much of a role are bump stocks really playing in anything?
01:24:18.440
It is something that is trying to skirt around the automatic weapon thing.
01:24:26.980
And a lot of the people who own them think it's not constitutional.
01:24:38.280
So, I just don't like anything that is skirting around.
01:24:56.420
In the world of the internet, plus 3D printers...
01:25:06.900
But I mean, I think it's one of those things that, politically speaking, you do it because
01:25:15.440
And C, you could give it away with almost losing almost nothing.
01:25:21.020
The other two are raising the age of gun purchases for long guns to 21 years old.
01:25:30.800
In theory, again, you're infringing on the right.
01:25:44.780
However, I'm not, in theory, opposed if we are saying it's 21 to drink.
01:25:57.600
The slippery slope in action, by the way, on the Glenn Beck program.
01:26:01.300
And I have more of a problem with that one because...
01:26:10.120
If you want to go buy your own gun, you can go buy your own gun.
01:26:14.060
Again, if you're old enough to use a gun in the military, you're certainly old enough
01:26:18.960
If a 16-year-old should be able to form our laws on guns, then certainly an 18-year-old
01:26:34.680
And by the way, the 21-year-old restriction should be removed as well and go back to 18.
01:26:39.120
I mean, I think as an adult, there's the obvious line there.
01:26:42.720
But again, I'm way out of the mainstream on this.
01:26:56.880
Universal background checks have been something that have been discussed for a long time.
01:27:00.660
And that sounds like, okay, yeah, I'm for background checks.
01:27:15.940
If you are hiring any great people, that is just the thing.
01:27:21.560
If you are hiring somebody, you want the best person you can possibly find.
01:27:25.800
If you want to have your business really succeed, you've got to find somebody who is just totally in sync with you.
01:27:33.640
There is something better than just posting your job online and praying for the right people to see it.
01:27:41.280
They built a platform that finds the right candidates for you.
01:27:45.820
ZipRecruiter learns what you're looking for, identifies the people with the right experience, and then invites them to apply for your job.
01:27:52.720
These invitations have revolutionized the way people are finding their next hire.
01:27:56.860
80% of employers who post a job on ZipRecruiter get a quality candidate through the site in the first day.
01:28:05.320
They know that they're not only inviting the people, but they know that you could be hit with a whole bunch of, you know, an avalanche of qualified people.
01:28:13.160
So they want to highlight the ones that are the most in sync with what you're looking for.
01:28:23.720
Use it for free at ZipRecruiter.com slash Beck.
01:28:41.680
So now let's look at the recent poll numbers and where Americans stand on the issues.
01:28:51.820
So the big headline from this Quinnipiac poll is going to be, and it seems to be so far, that 97% of Americans support requiring background checks for all gun buyers.
01:29:06.520
Now, this is the universal background check that has been tossed around for a long time.
01:29:10.420
Some Republicans have generally opposed it, and it's one of the things that we're talking about now.
01:29:15.940
Trump seems to be indicating a level of support for it.
01:29:19.200
Okay, so now what this means is, I mean, everybody has to have a background check unless, unless you're a dad giving your gun to your son.
01:29:28.960
Then my son doesn't have to have a background check.
01:29:32.960
This would require everyone, any transaction has to now have a background check.
01:29:39.520
And that background check, you know, Cabela's does it for free, but that background check, you know, could be as high as $500.
01:29:46.320
And you also would have to maintain the records of the background check for multiple years.
01:29:50.920
So if you're, if someone, if God forbid, you sell your gun to, to your son and he does something he's not supposed to do with it, they would come to you and say, well, did you get the background check done?
01:30:02.960
So you'd have to hold paperwork on your kids for multiple years to make sure that you could prove all of this.
01:30:08.280
This is something that most people, and this is why the poll is misleading.
01:30:11.380
So you say, do you support or oppose requiring background checks for all gun buyers?
01:30:17.320
And the reason for that is, of course, the media has told them that no one gets background checks when they buy guns.
01:30:35.780
It's, you know, Chris Cuomo was tweeting someone who said some 20-year-old has said in five minutes he bought an AR-15.
01:30:42.920
Afterwards, it was discovered that, no, the kid didn't buy that gun at all.
01:30:48.540
He had just tweeted, they would call it a banana, I believe.
01:31:08.140
It's a, this is not some, you know, tilted poll.
01:31:10.880
Though it is one of the most favorable polls I've ever seen for gun control.
01:31:20.920
Number two, it's just one poll and it's a little bit of an outlier.
01:31:24.500
I will say that the Washington Post poll from just yesterday isn't nearly as favorable for gun control measures.
01:31:30.060
But this one is going to get a lot of attention because it's 97 to 2.
01:31:33.160
The issue is when you say that, you don't give any specifics about what you're talking about.
01:31:38.060
Almost all gun purchases are already covered by background checks.
01:31:41.780
So, it is not something that, that is going to be a mass increase in background checks.
01:31:49.060
There are four, there are three basic categories that this falls into that may or may not get background checks.
01:31:54.520
If the buyer is trying to purchase a gun at a gun show.
01:31:59.220
Now, of course, I have purchased guns at back, gun shows before.
01:32:07.380
So, this is what, this is one of the biggest lies out there.
01:32:12.920
You can be an independent person and you want to sell your one gun and you can sell it at a gun show and make the transaction, but then you don't have to go through a background check.
01:32:24.120
But that is minuscule compared to the amount of guns that are sold and traded at gun shows.
01:32:30.440
When you go to a gun show, you buy it from a, you know, from a vendor, they're giving you the background check.
01:32:44.140
If you are a private citizen and you want to sell your one gun, you can sell it to somebody else.
01:32:50.020
I can give my gun to my son without a background check.
01:32:53.420
So, what you find is when you start pulling the specifics of what a universal background check would actually do, the number drops quite a bit from 97%.
01:33:01.600
Now, they ask the question, is the buyer trying to purchase it at a gun show?
01:33:06.460
If they're buying at a gun show, that is 83% support.
01:33:10.460
So, right off the bat, you've gone from 97% to 83%.
01:33:17.360
So, the other way of doing it is, like, if you think of it, Glenn, you have a gun and you're selling it to someone not in your family.
01:33:22.540
Just selling it to me and I purchase it, do I have to go through a background check for that?
01:33:35.980
Now, when we go to if the buyer is purchasing a gun from a family member or receiving it as a gift, that number drops from 97% down to 54%.
01:33:46.680
So, now you're in a situation where the number is not universal support for the left-wing position, but it is your typical left-right divide, right?
01:33:57.600
Where half the country thinks one way, half the country thinks another way.
01:34:01.100
And you may say, well, okay, you know, that's just one little bit of the background check.
01:34:06.620
Yeah, but that's the stuff that they're talking about.
01:34:12.440
I know the media, for those who don't own a gun, never done this before, don't listen to the media who says, oh, it's easier than buying cough syrup.
01:34:28.340
And you're like, honestly, I've been to Cabela's and I wanted to buy something.
01:34:32.460
And then I've looked over where they do the background check and I'm like, yeah, forget it.
01:34:37.120
I mean, it's a pain in the ass, but we all do it.
01:34:44.200
Ninety nine percent of all guns sold are sold that way.
01:34:51.260
Should you should my son have to go through a background check to get my gun?
01:35:04.920
Well, then my son happens to be Adam Lanza and may God have mercy on his soul.
01:35:11.280
And this is what was going to happen, because once you get to the point where they allow background checks for you to sell your kids guns, they will say anyone else in the home when you buy a gun also must be background check.
01:35:23.380
The Adam Lanza rule will eventually be something the left pushes for.
01:35:26.920
If you have somebody in your if you have a teenager in your home that is is suffering from depression or is on medication, do you have a weapon in the home?
01:35:38.120
You've got to get rid of the weapon in the home or we can the state can take the child away for now until you know.
01:35:44.820
I mean, that's where we're headed, because what happens?
01:35:58.040
If you want to look at some of the other polling stuff here, 66 percent support stricter gun loss.
01:36:06.480
So there has been some movement or this poll is an outlier.
01:36:30.740
And I mean, how can God let us live in a world where Billy Graham is gone and Pat Gray arrives?
01:36:45.460
I should probably mention I didn't have anything to do with Billy leaving.
01:36:49.480
Well, that's what that's what we'd expect you to say.
01:36:59.000
I really did not suspect foul play when he died at 99.
01:37:16.940
You remember those crusades he did where he would, at his peak, do 18 a year.
01:37:25.300
So, every six weeks, the guy would fill 50,000 seat stadiums.
01:37:35.360
Also, it's just kind of another era that he was, and I mean this in the PC way, but he
01:37:43.400
I mean, obviously, that has now been this thing you're not supposed to say.
01:38:02.540
You know, when I was in his office, and he had a picture of him, and I think he was on stage
01:38:12.260
with Martin Luther King, but I remember seeing the stadium.
01:38:15.920
And I asked him, I said, you know, what's that?
01:38:22.540
And I've looked, I've tried to find the picture in his book, and I can't find it.
01:38:27.060
But he said, that was a night, I don't remember where it was in the South, he said, when, you
01:38:34.220
know, everybody was all up in arms about, you know, segregation and black and white issues.
01:38:40.400
And he said, Martin Luther King was speaking, and I was speaking, and he said, we, I had
01:38:47.760
the audience, I told them to get up and sit next to somebody who's not your color.
01:38:55.260
Imagine in the early 1960s, doing that in the South.
01:39:10.860
Well, speaking of evangelists, Jim Baker is back.
01:39:19.460
Of course, he did, what, five years, I think, in prison.
01:39:39.420
One of her eyelashes fell off and broke her neck, I think, is what happened.
01:39:49.800
She remarried, you might recall, pretty quickly after he went to jail, married his best friend.
01:39:57.840
This is going to be an incredible movie at some point.
01:39:59.920
I mean, and it just got me to thinking about, uh, uh, Jessica Hahn and the whole situation
01:40:05.160
that brought down the scandal and some wacky radio guy in Phoenix, Arizona who hired Jessica
01:40:13.880
Because Jessica Hahn, if you don't remember, she was the playboy.
01:40:16.140
Wasn't she like a playboy bunny that kind of like the person who jumped in the middle
01:40:21.280
There was a show in Phoenix at the time that thought it was a good idea to hire her.
01:40:28.540
Paid her money to just come in and do the weather.
01:40:30.880
And she was like their weather bunny or something.
01:40:32.720
Well, I will tell you that I think the person that did that, uh, was, uh, talking to her and
01:40:41.500
she said, you know, I've always wanted to do what you do.
01:40:46.680
And I said, oh, he said, well, have you ever done that before?
01:40:55.660
And I said, so, well, you could, uh, we could, how about a 30 day contract?
01:41:00.640
You can be the weather bunny and you can do the weather and, you know, and, you know,
01:41:05.520
you can practice off air and try to see if there's a show and if there's a show, great.
01:41:10.120
And so she was with us for about 30 days or 40 days.
01:41:26.740
She was very open about the whole Jim Baker thing and, and, uh, you know, she talk about
01:41:34.200
I mean, cause that's what people would want, right?
01:41:39.860
She, I mean, she was shortly before we got together.
01:41:43.280
So I wasn't there at the time, which is why I don't know some of these.
01:42:06.840
Um, I, I looked at my father, my, my, my in-laws are staying with us and I looked at my father
01:42:13.420
and cause I just had my birthday and I said, dad, I believe you were 54 when we met.
01:42:39.260
The next time I have this realization, I'll be your age now.
01:42:47.140
Like, I mean, you know, Tom Brady just lost, he lost the Superbowl to the Philadelphia Eagles
01:42:52.000
Uh, but I mean, people talked about it all the time.
01:43:03.660
The people are saying he's, it's incredibly, he's like a superhuman to be able to walk at
01:43:09.560
And I'm older than, I'm older than basically, thank God Adam Vinatieri's still in the league
01:43:14.480
because he's 45 and he's still going to continue.
01:43:17.400
So I still, as long as he's still there, but I mean, that's, it's basically every professional
01:43:24.200
Could we, could, could we go to something, Stu, that we're working on for the future?
01:43:27.880
Um, uh, we're doing a, a chalkboard series on society splinters.
01:43:33.300
And the last one is about technology and how it's either going to be utopia.
01:43:41.920
Uh, and, uh, um, we were talking about the things that they are predicting now to come
01:43:52.480
In 2030, they believe Ray Kurzweil is predicting an end to disease, no AIDS, no cancer, uh, no
01:44:10.380
And then how long do you live if there's no diseases?
01:44:13.200
I mean, cause we always say this, this idea of natural causes is not real, right?
01:44:19.480
Like there's no reason you have to die at that point medically.
01:44:24.160
Now you could talk about, uh, you know, spiritually and, and, and, and go into those realms.
01:44:28.280
But when you talk about medical, like the, the, the, what you're, you're, you've got cells
01:44:35.820
There, you know, there could be something like, uh, you know, a, uh, the, uh, gosh, I'm thinking
01:44:42.200
of, I can't think of the heart attack, heart attack, whatever it is, right?
01:44:46.440
Something that, that, but if you prevent those things, uh, there's no reason you die at 80
01:44:51.480
or 90, like those with, you have cells dying, you have things happening inside your body.
01:44:56.140
If you can prevent all those things with, let's say nanotechnology, which is one of
01:45:06.120
With the population explosion that would result from that, we'd run out of food and then
01:45:13.160
Let's say at 65, they retire and then you send them to a really nice place.
01:45:19.040
But you know, with all the investigative research being done by certain people, somebody might
01:45:23.920
poke around and find out where those old people are going.
01:45:27.380
And that's to a plant where they're killed and turned into food.
01:45:46.700
It's not going to happen because there is this new thing that we're going to start
01:45:50.080
doing and you're going to have like a little, like a little crystal in the center of your
01:45:55.440
And when that crystal changes color, then you go to just like a, a, a big ceremony in a
01:46:03.920
stadium where you're, where you're, you're called to go to someplace great.
01:46:17.940
You're supposed to tell us that part of the story.
01:46:24.240
No, it's because one of the, the only reason why we found this out is because one of the
01:46:28.580
guys who was one of the, he would, he would track the runners.
01:46:33.820
And some people were like, Hey, I'm not going to a happy place.
01:46:36.940
And he's like, no, of course you're going to a happy place.
01:46:38.920
Well, he found out, I can't remember his name, Logan or something.
01:46:41.780
And he found out that he, that, that they were telling the truth.
01:46:50.380
So anyway, that's what happens when technology gets too good.
01:46:55.960
There's really no, there's not a lot of movies where they're just like, you know what?
01:47:03.500
I mean, you think about it, Blade Runner, uh, Gattaca.
01:47:07.420
What was that one with, uh, Star Trek is Star Trek.
01:47:10.400
It turns out, yeah, Star Trek is the only one really.
01:47:15.420
But that's because that's because that's not because of humans or me.
01:47:21.580
But it's still, you're dealing now with the interplanetary people.
01:47:30.820
By the way, have you heard the latest controversy on Black Panther?
01:47:37.640
It's, uh, action packed with a ton of diversity, but no gays.
01:47:53.940
So now you must include, no matter what, whether it fits in the story or not, a homosexual relationship?
01:48:00.340
I'm going to have to insist that you also include a polygamist relationship.
01:48:14.340
Well, if you're going to go there, I think it's only fair because you can't question or
01:48:20.940
I mean, I don't know why you can't have, you know, familial love as well represented in
01:48:31.560
We're not going to restrict in any way your chance of loving others.
01:48:36.060
Just the only controversy here is marriage, right?
01:48:38.540
You can have sex with as many people as you want.
01:48:40.420
And if you criticize that, then you're an old timey bastard.
01:48:43.980
But if you say you want to marry them, then it's so bad that we can't even use it as a
01:48:50.200
You know, you know who else is underrepresented in all of our movies?
01:49:03.680
Now, Jeffy, if he were here, he would tell you there are a lot of movies about that.
01:49:07.320
You know, I would like to say that I think the only people that are really underrepresented
01:49:14.360
in today's movies and television, normal people that are just.
01:49:23.020
You just said people who date their brothers and sisters are not normal.
01:49:37.460
Pat Gray Unleashed coming up on the Blaze Radio and TV networks.
01:49:46.060
Don't forget about that on iTunes or wherever podcasts are sold for free.
01:49:58.540
Can you imagine taking your car on a hundred day test drive?
01:50:01.960
If I can, I can, having a pair of new shoes, having a hundred days to walk around and see
01:50:09.360
Oh, I wish my wife would do that, but she'd still buy them and then wear them.
01:50:14.320
And then immediately after leaving the house, she'll say, I can't wait to take these shoes
01:50:19.900
Anyway, if, you know, a test drive would change things for you, if you would learn something
01:50:25.740
and then do something about it, it's a good thing, right?
01:50:29.360
But Casper is giving you 100 nights to test your Casper mattress in your own home with
01:50:39.940
Casper mattress, a unique combination of foams that provide the right pressure relief and
01:50:43.920
So you feel perfectly balanced and comfortable and it ships freed right to your door.
01:50:48.620
If you don't love it, they're going to come and pick it up for free.
01:50:51.520
They'll give you a full refund, nothing to lose.
01:50:56.900
When the choice to test a mattress is actually sleeping on it for 100 nights in your home
01:51:02.260
or going to a store and flopping around on a dozen or so mattresses with your clothes
01:51:42.320
Stella wrote in how stupid the NRA has nothing to do with the school shooting.
01:51:46.860
Go after the FBI for not investigating the tips they got on that killer.
01:51:51.280
Let's just find out what happened and let's fix the damn problem.
01:51:55.460
I'm sure there are any number of cities that will gladly take the millions of dollars that
01:52:00.180
the NRA convention will mean to its host city because Dallas has said the NRA should go find

On the special that we've been doing this week with these amazing women, and there's another

Holly wrote in, Glenn, thank you for focusing on this.
01:52:27.140
Frank, thanks for shedding light on this, Glenn.
01:52:29.880
And it amazes me how the rest of the media is so silent.
01:52:44.740
It's amazing in this world of hashtag me too, and we've got to stand up for women, how silent
01:52:50.400
the media is on what the Nazarene Fund and OUR is doing.
01:53:03.020
An under-informed person would think maybe it's political.
