is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:00:54.060
It's Pat and Stu in for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program today.
00:01:00.800
Bidonomics in effect working one more time for the American people.
00:01:06.340
We'll get into the details of that coming up in just a second.
00:01:18.700
If they liked it, how much nutritional good do you think it's doing them?
00:01:23.700
If it's kibble food, the unfortunate answer is probably not all that much.
00:01:29.160
Just like your body, your dog's body is instinctively searching for things that will make them healthier and happier.
00:01:37.000
So the question is, since you're the owner, what can you do to make it better?
00:01:41.360
Well, the answer you're looking for, the answer I found with my dog and Glenn found with his dog, is rough greens.
00:01:52.000
Didn't really enjoy food until he started sprinkling rough greens on top of it.
00:01:58.000
My dog wouldn't eat her food after we started rough greens without the rough greens being on top.
00:02:04.440
It's a dog food supplement developed by naturopathic doctor Dennis Black.
00:02:15.380
If it's healthy for your dog, it's probably in rough greens.
00:02:19.020
Now, rough greens is so confident that your dog is going to love it.
00:02:24.100
Go to roughgreens.com slash back or call 833-GLEN-33.
00:02:30.300
And they're going to give you your first trial bag free.
00:02:35.300
All you have to do is pay the shipping or call 833-GLEN-33.
00:02:56.480
I just inverted it, which kind of defeated the whole purpose.
00:03:07.120
I hope you're, I mean, obviously you're in a mode of celebration.
00:03:19.300
What does he have to do for you to finally understand how good he's been as president of the United States?
00:03:28.060
You know, sometimes your opponent gives you a gift.
00:03:40.740
Marshawn Lynch, the running back for the Seattle Seahawks at the time.
00:03:44.440
One of the best short yardage running backs in the NFL.
00:03:47.900
The Seahawks are on the one yard line at the end of the Super Bowl.
00:04:02.720
This is the level of gift we have been given by Joe Biden when he himself decided to coin his economic record as Bidenomics.
00:04:30.620
And that led to the largest landslide election in our history, in 100 years, at least, at the time.
00:04:38.260
In 2010, if I'm thinking back correctly, the Tea Party wave.
00:04:46.060
That it was, you know, this really unpopular program was kind of stuck on him.
00:04:50.400
Now, of course, once it became a giveaway, it's now sort of reversed in its popularity, and it's not nearly as negative as it was back then in polling.
00:05:04.440
And once you start doing handouts, people become addicted to it.
00:05:08.660
Social Security, for instance, which isn't a handout because you pay into it your whole life.
00:05:13.320
I mean, there's asterisk all over that statement, but I do.
00:05:16.900
But it's when you start a welfare program or a program that gives people great deals.
00:05:27.120
You know, and that is something that always invades.
00:05:31.000
This is why we fought so hard against it back in 2009 and 2010.
00:05:35.760
And honestly, all the way up until 2017, 18, because that was when, you know, of course, President Trump ran on repealing it.
00:05:44.960
They weren't able to get that across the finish line, unfortunately.
00:05:50.640
And, of course, now people have factored it into their lives, right?
00:05:58.340
Now, this is totally not what I planned on talking about here, but a new chart just came out about health care costs.
00:06:06.620
And remember all the talk about bending the cost curve?
00:06:11.480
Yeah, and it was going to lower the payments per family $2,500 a year.
00:06:21.600
But their argument was, well, no, what we mean is it's $2,500 less than it would have been, right?
00:06:30.260
And they went on and on and on about that, trying to make you believe it.
00:06:33.620
And, of course, the media, at every step of the way, told you you should believe it.
00:06:43.640
In 2008, the average U.S. family health insurance premium was $13,000.
00:06:53.880
So it was going up $1,000 or about $500 a year in that stretch.
00:07:22.040
It's about 60% higher than it was when Obamacare passed.
00:07:26.300
It has gone up and up and up and up and up and up.
00:07:29.680
And if you look at the chart, you could see that the years previous going up at a pretty steep increase.
00:07:37.420
And then after Obamacare, what you see is it going up at almost exactly the same level of increase.
00:07:46.000
But it was something that we tried to pin on Obama, right?
00:07:51.460
Like, we want people to remember this was this guy doing this to us.
00:07:57.880
Similarly, if we were strategizing about the 2024 election, we might say to each other, hey, I want people to remember this is Joe Biden's plan for our country.
00:08:11.240
Our economic future is locked up in, let's come up with a term for it, Bidenomics.
00:08:17.020
That is absolutely something that could have happened.
00:08:23.880
What happened was Joe Biden, who is obviously either completely senile or a moron, decided to take...
00:08:36.920
He was like, when you think about what's happening to you in this economy, think about me.
00:08:45.840
I mean, it is one of the biggest gifts in history, in the history of politics.
00:08:55.960
No one takes responsibility for their failures.
00:08:58.520
That's the opposite of what you're supposed to do in politics.
00:09:01.240
And yet they lie so much, they make it seem like it's a huge success.
00:09:06.940
He'll often stop in the middle of a speech about the things he's accomplished.
00:09:13.220
And he'll say, they gave me the name Bidenomics for my plan.
00:09:28.560
He's done that line over and over and over and over again.
00:09:36.540
He's also, and this is a very common trait from Joe Biden, when he wants to name himself
00:09:42.860
something, he acts as if other people have named him that thing.
00:10:07.240
There was literally mainstream media stories talking about how no one had ever called him
00:10:13.780
middle class Joe publicly until he called himself middle class Joe publicly.
00:10:28.900
He wanted you to think, oh, he's just a union guy, happened to get this job as president
00:10:39.260
And there were some left wing economists were saying, maybe we're looking at this economy
00:10:47.680
But he jumped on the fray at that, into the fray at that time and decided to just embrace
00:10:55.260
You know, Donald Trump leads Joe Biden on this issue by more than 20 points.
00:11:04.680
It's not nearly as bad as the border stuff, which is even worse for Biden.
00:11:09.900
But it is, you know, something where he's failed over and over and over again.
00:11:18.800
Apparently, you've not listened to people like Alejandro Mayorkas.
00:11:28.680
Because I happened to see thousands of people just yesterday streaming across the border.
00:11:38.040
So, if you're watching on Blaze TV, here's how that looks.
00:11:44.260
Did they just put Taylor Swift tickets on sale?
00:11:47.560
That's people, thousands of them just rushing our border.
00:12:02.140
If I told you, if you squinted a little bit, because some of the details are a little different,
00:12:06.480
but if you squinted a little bit and I said, hey, that's the Ukraine-Poland border a year
00:12:14.400
The only thing about it is the Poland situation was more organized.
00:12:22.140
It's impossible to describe how bad this has been on the border.
00:12:29.200
The border, interestingly, Pat, gives him worse polling results than even, like, the Afghanistan withdrawal,
00:12:40.660
So, this has been an ongoing disaster from the day he walked into office until today.
00:12:48.520
And the one step where you might say, okay, well, maybe, look, we're taking a step in the
00:12:58.240
I don't believe that he cares about the border, but, okay, maybe, maybe, I don't know, maybe
00:13:05.040
He wants you to know he had nothing to do with it.
00:13:06.840
He wants you to know that actually walls don't work.
00:13:09.220
He wants you to know that he was forced into doing this by Congress, even though Mayorkas,
00:13:14.580
his own guy, is saying there's an acute need for this at the border.
00:13:19.940
And all of this adds up to a complete failure of a presidency.
00:13:24.420
If this election is about Joe Biden, I don't think there's any way he can win it.
00:13:30.320
The only way he can win it is to make it about something else.
00:13:34.060
Obviously, their target right now is to make it about Donald Trump getting arrested a million
00:13:40.960
They've tried these things before, and they don't seem...
00:13:42.820
And they've missed before with these predictions.
00:13:45.560
But we did get the new unemployment rate, the new unemployment report today, Pat.
00:14:07.280
So, I mean, almost double what they were expecting, economists were expecting.
00:14:11.920
Now, they consistently miss on these predictions, so we shouldn't be too shocked by that.
00:14:15.860
But again, it just shows that their efforts behind the scenes to try to raise rates to
00:14:19.920
calm the economy, calm the process of all this hiring and wages going up and all these
00:14:27.140
Their efforts to stop the negative effects that they created by spending trillions of
00:14:32.380
dollars and trying to fight inflation, it's not working very well.
00:14:38.040
And if you really look at the details of the report, you get a different picture.
00:14:46.300
Like, I mean, I hate to say that a bunch of new people getting jobs is a bad thing.
00:14:51.700
I mean, I'm rooting for people to get jobs if they want them.
00:14:55.100
But when you look at the details of the report, the huge job number was powered by the sectors
00:15:00.820
we've been used to seeing outperform in recent months.
00:15:07.460
This is what we've seen outperform in recent months.
00:15:10.900
Leisure and hospitality added 96,000 jobs, led by employment in bars and restaurants.
00:15:19.900
Most of us, Pat Gray being a radio star at like 14 years old might be the exception.
00:15:23.920
But generally speaking, we've all had jobs doing leisure and hospitality work.
00:15:31.780
And I have no doubt in my mind that people are drinking a lot more under Joe Biden.
00:15:36.080
So, bars, I can see why you'd need a lot of employees at bars.
00:15:41.380
This is not our pushing into the future of the economy.
00:15:45.260
And then secondarily, it's government hiring up 73,000 of these jobs.
00:15:54.560
Those two categories just by themselves are the entire overperformance in the job market.
00:16:00.440
Is this as positive as people are trying to make it out to be?
00:16:04.440
We've got much more on this and other wonderful accomplishments from this administration.
00:16:11.580

00:17:47.960
360,000 new jobs added in September, I think it was.
00:17:55.320
And yet, it's not good for interest rates and all that.
00:18:00.900
The Fed is saying now, oh, we need to cool down this economy a little bit, so we need
00:18:11.180
And the fact that they admit that, wait, the economy's too good.
00:18:15.940
Now, of course, does anyone actually believe that?
00:18:18.120
I mean, no one believes that the economy is too good right now.
00:18:21.240
No, that's not something that people actually think.
00:18:23.300
Well, it's on fire and we need to cool it down.
00:18:25.540
No, I mean, look, the problem is not that it's too good, it's that it's too bad when
00:18:31.460
Now, when you have an economy that has high inflation, you're going to get, you know,
00:18:39.080
Now, the problem is they're not going up as fast as inflation.
00:18:45.100
Hey, my pay is going up, my hourly pay is going up, but at the same time, the price
00:18:52.260
of eggs and milk and bread and housing and new cars and all the things that make up inflation
00:19:01.900
They still remember the days back in 2019 when things were sanely priced.
00:19:07.300
This may surprise you, but at the cookie company that I own, we use a lot of those products.
00:19:21.080
I mean, they weigh four pounds each, but I had never.
00:19:36.420
And that's the key, apparently, sugar and butter.
00:19:40.360
And you can obtain those by going to Kexi.com, K-E-K-S-I.com.
00:19:48.800
But the thing is, it is staggering how much all of these goods and services have gone up.
00:20:03.720
Well, I think that's partly Ukraine for one thing, but it's other factors as well.
00:20:08.520
And it's Biden's screw-ups that are causing the prices of food to skyrocket.
00:20:22.760
And so, from the time that he took office until now, I don't even know what the markup is, but it's huge.
00:20:30.140
We should go over that a little bit more because this is something that the left loves to do.
00:20:53.420
We should go through this a little bit because this is something the media tries to...
00:20:59.540
They keep telling you, why are you complaining?
00:21:05.300
They don't understand that inflation is going down.
00:21:11.300
Actually, the people understand a hell of a lot better than these economists in this situation.
00:21:14.740
They're the ones having to deal with this on a daily basis, not the people, you know, at, you know, Harvard who are giving us these reports telling us how wonderful things are.
00:21:23.480
Actual people have to live actual lives buying actual things.
00:21:36.660
It's Pat and Stu in for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.
00:21:50.620
It is only a matter of time before you're out of warranty on your vehicle and your vehicles in the shop costing you thousands of dollars.
00:21:58.220
If that unexpected breakdown happened today, would you be ready?
00:22:04.640
Since I called CarShield, I don't have to worry about repair bills.
00:22:08.140
I have a couple of trucks that are 8, 10 years old plus.
00:22:11.760
CarShield administrators have taken care of absolutely everything when one of them has broken down.

00:22:32.400
Save 20% off your plan and you'll always be prepared for the unexpected.
00:22:36.840
800-227-6100 or go to carshield.com slash back.
00:22:49.060
As the mainstream media perpetuates the left's insanity, we're helping you fight back one truth at a time.
00:23:09.980
So, Stu, what do you make of the Speaker of the House situation?
00:23:13.700
Are you excited that Donald Trump has said he'd do it temporarily?
00:23:24.560
I mean, I think as a host of a conservative talk show, we are legally required to discuss Donald Trump as a House Speaker.
00:23:33.840
Like, whether he wants it or not, we have to always, it always has to be brought up and then we always have to talk about it.
00:23:39.680
And every other time it's been brought up, it seemed like such a ridiculous suggestion.
00:23:44.600
You know, look, Donald Trump is a lot of things.
00:23:53.220
He doesn't, he doesn't bother with all of these little details of how these laws are made and pushed through.
00:24:02.360
He's a much more of a big picture guy, as we all know.
00:24:04.780
Um, but of course he is, on the other hand, somebody who does seem to turn the Republican Party from a bunch of different factions into one, one opinion with his.
00:24:25.960
So in a way, the Speaker really needs to have that.
00:24:29.420
You need to have someone who feels like you're going to have consequences if you screw up.
00:24:34.180
And I think Donald Trump would certainly bring that to the table.
00:24:36.840
I think you could argue, well, why would he want to do this?
00:24:41.820
Yeah, he's got a lot of irons in the fire right now.
00:24:47.960
Correct me if I'm wrong on this, Pat, if you see this differently.
00:24:50.840
But in a way, it's almost a really inexpensive campaign.
00:24:59.980
He'd be in the middle of every news story, even more than he is now.
00:25:04.180
And he wouldn't have to go to all these states.
00:25:10.040
He'd kind of just be able to sit back and they have to cover everything that he's doing.
00:25:20.080
But, you know, he has a way of talking his way out of that stuff.
00:25:23.460
You know, it would be the coolest part of it, though, is if he were the Speaker of the House during the State of the Union address by Joe Biden.
00:25:31.040
So he's seated directly behind Biden during Biden's speech to the nation.
00:25:48.720
I mean, that would be, I will say, he should do it at least for that week.
00:25:58.520
No matter what, he's the Speaker of the House that week.
00:26:03.920
Like, if you have a Speaker, like, let's say, I don't know, Jim Jordan gets it, or Steve Scalise gets it.
00:26:09.940
They should, because what they do when they become Speaker of the House is they submit a list of people that they would want to be Speaker if something happens to them.
00:26:19.760
If they're incapacitated in some way, you need a temporary person.
00:26:22.560
That's why, what is it, McHenry is currently the Speaker, or the interim Speaker.
00:26:30.880
So, they don't tell anybody who that is, but there's a list of people, hey, go to this person first, go to this person after this.
00:26:37.560
But, if you were to put Donald Trump at the top of that list, and then, just like the Speaker of the House takes a vacation, like, you know, Scalise or whatever, just goes overseas for the day.
00:26:58.200
Actually, what they should do is put Taylor Swift back there.
00:27:10.160
I mean, look, I know people have different opinions than this.
00:27:23.440
I mean, a lot of people think cats are attractive.
00:27:27.100
People have posters of cats hanging in their house.
00:27:29.540
It's just, you know, she's, you know, 78% feline.
00:27:34.320
I mean, you could do it with a DNA test or we could just look.
00:27:36.780
The bottom line is, you know, that's just my opinion of her.
00:27:40.680
But if you put her behind there, then no one would pay attention to anything Biden said,
00:27:44.000
which also might be the case if Trump was back there, which might not be the best thing.
00:27:49.580
Because as we were talking about with the economy, it's good when people are talking about Joe Biden.
00:27:56.780
It's bad when people are talking about anything other than Joe Biden because Joe Biden has been a catastrophe.
00:28:02.280
We were talking about this before, Pat, on the economy.
00:28:06.100
And we were going to talk about inflation a little bit more.
00:28:08.440
And there's a story that came out in the, I think it was the Wall Street Journal earlier this week.
00:28:18.600
And like, it shouldn't be that big of a situation to understand.
00:28:24.640
But the media has done such a good job at hiding why this is bad.
00:28:35.200
But what people don't understand in the media is essentially there's a view by economists that you can just have this inflation go up by a lower percentage from year to year.
00:28:57.160
But that is Joe Biden's argument on so many topics.
00:29:00.880
Hey, we're better than the worst you've ever seen.
00:29:04.160
And by the way, we're also responsible for the worst you've ever seen.
00:29:13.140
Except that they don't even have that on the border because it's worse.
00:29:16.800
Last month was, I believe, the worst on record.
00:29:19.300
But in six months from now, there's a good chance it comes down by 10% and then they're on there bragging about it again.
00:29:28.560
The headline from the Wall Street Journal, why consumers are mad about inflation even though it has fallen.
00:29:33.500
And it's true because people don't realize that, or the media is at least assuming that the average person doesn't realize how this statistic works.
00:29:45.480
So, like, if you start out with something that costs $100 and you have a year where it goes up, all sorts of concerns, it goes up 30%.
00:29:52.900
So, whatever you were buying before, this basket of stuff, is now 100, goes from $100 to $130.
00:30:08.560
$130 for the same thing I spent $100 on before.
00:30:13.020
And then next year, let's say inflation only goes from 30% down to 10%.
00:30:19.500
That means that it doesn't go down to $110, right?
00:30:28.300
So, now you're spending $143 on the same thing that you remember spending $100 on.
00:30:33.920
And they're telling you, well, it's gone down from 30% to 10%.
00:30:40.700
It's like, well, we're not happy because we were mad at $130.
00:30:46.420
And then it goes down, you know, the next year, it goes, oh, well, now it's only 5% inflation.
00:30:51.220
Well, now I'm paying $150 for the same thing that I paid $100 for.
00:30:56.260
And that is why they can't turn this narrative around.
00:31:07.940
If they were at $110, $115, people might say, well, I paid $130 last year.
00:31:13.060
Sure, it's still higher than the $100 we started with, but it's not that bad.
00:31:23.240
It went up to $5, came down to $4, and everyone's like, hallelujah.
00:31:30.580
But now in this situation, it's, of course, creeping back up to $4.
00:31:36.860
I mean, it's, I don't know what the average national price is.
00:31:40.060
I don't know if you know off the top of your head, but it's $4 here in Texas.
00:31:44.700
It's $7 plus in Gavin Newsom's California, which he blames only partially on himself,
00:31:58.500
I, it used to be that people would say, it's actually not my fault.
00:32:03.600
He's just like, well, I mean, sure, two thirds of it are my fault, but the other third isn't me.
00:32:13.100
Once again, when it comes to gas, prices have been going up.
00:32:16.740
And now we're starting to see the other side of this, where prices get so high and rates are so high,
00:32:21.580
you're going to, you're looking at what could be a housing crash or a housing crisis.
00:32:28.960
And I was talking to a friend of mine who's a real estate agent the other day.
00:32:31.820
And he said, he works in a, you know, a nice town in Texas.
00:32:36.240
And they have, it's a place where people want to move.
00:32:39.420
And he said a year ago, they sold 22 houses in this town.
00:33:07.340
If you bought a house in a period before, let's say, 2021.
00:33:11.100
You're looking at yourself, unless you absolutely have to move, you're saying, I have this mortgage
00:33:21.700
So I can move for the same price in half the house.
00:33:29.620
I'm going to stay here and guard this mortgage as if it's one of my children.
00:33:40.240
And then you have a situation where on the other side, people are saying, well, this house
00:33:49.060
But when you factor in the interest rate, the payment's so high, it seems way out of my
00:33:56.040
And so both neither side of the transaction wants to actually move forward.
00:34:03.160
And what do they want to do after today's report?
00:34:10.480
And according to this, the average price of gas in the U.S. from U.S. retail gas price
00:34:22.680
That's down from $4 last week, supposedly, but up from $3.77 a year ago.
00:34:29.300
And just to give you a sense of what that means, I'm looking at the chart going back
00:34:34.720
It's basically the highest it has ever been, with the exception of the blip in 2022, the
00:34:46.160
That little mountain is the only thing standing above where we are right at this second.
00:34:51.040
And that's not a story that the media is covering.
00:34:53.920
They're not saying, oh my gosh, the prices are so high.
00:34:56.880
They're still talking about how they're lower than the one-month period or two-month period
00:35:04.460
But if you're a presidential candidate and your argument to people is, hey, remember we
00:35:11.420
did a really terrible job before and prices went really out of control.
00:35:14.900
Well, since then, it's slightly better, but still tied for the worst of all time from before
00:35:30.120
Yet, it's one of the lead arguments for Bidenomics.
00:35:41.840
MyPillow is having a closeout sale on their Percal sheets.
00:35:57.160
Mike Lindell continues to give back to you with deals on his most popular products.
00:36:02.120
You've heard me talk about MySlippers and the Giza Dream sheets and the MyPillow 2.0.
00:36:07.000
But the latest sale is on their popular Percal sheets.
00:36:09.980
These sheets are available in a variety of colors and sizes included in the closeout sale.
00:36:15.580
The queen-size sheets regularly retail for $89.98, but now they're $35.
00:36:23.380
The MyPillow Percal sheets are breathable, have cool, crisp feel to them.
00:36:28.620
They have deep pockets to fit over any mattress and are extremely durable and machine washable.
00:36:33.620
Limited supply, so now's the time to stock up for the whole family.
00:36:41.080
Get the MyPillow Percal sheets for as low as $25 for a twin set, $35 for the queen set.
00:36:53.660
It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program, 888-727-BECK.
00:37:04.740
We're just trying to figure out the situation with the weird flip-flopping Democrats.
00:37:11.020
Of course, Republicans have done their share of flip-flopping as well.
00:37:13.880
But it's really amazing when you sit back and watch the positions of Democrats today, who we were just talking about the fact that Harry Reid used to be a big hawk on the border.
00:37:28.180
Was really pissed off that illegals were flowing across the border back in the 90s and even into the early 2000s.
00:37:35.680
And then, of course, he and his whole party completely changed.
00:37:41.840
They don't care about the border at all anymore.
00:37:44.480
It's fine when millions cross the border illegally every year.
00:37:47.500
Their justification back then was labor related.
00:37:52.940
Because that was the thing that mattered that day.
00:37:55.680
And then, all of a sudden, it was, well, we can't be mean to people who look differently or whatever their justification is for letting people flow across the border.
00:38:06.280
Sanctuary city, sanctuary city, sanctuary city.
00:38:10.580
They thought that was going to increase their power base because they figured all these people are going to vote for them now.
00:38:17.260
And even maybe a weirder situation is the Warhawk deal.
00:38:28.000
Our entire lives, it's been the opposite, where they all said every war they came up with that was debated, they would always be-
00:38:37.120
You know, sometimes they'd eventually, like, they voted for the Iraq War.
00:38:42.300
They acted as if things were happening there that weren't.
00:38:45.780
They didn't want to be reminded that they voted for the Iraq War.
00:38:51.440
And now they are, like, I mean, and it's not just the politicians.
00:38:57.120
You look at, like, the polling on this, the people who approve the funding for Ukraine,
00:39:03.860
it's like, it's Democrats or something like 70% approval.
00:39:10.380
Wait, I remember, you know, go back to the Reagan era, if you want.
00:39:14.560
I remember the conservatives being the ones that were against Russia, the Soviet Union at the time.
00:39:29.580
And now it's like, oh, we have to fund the Ukraine war.
00:39:38.060
You realize when you really think about it, that they in Washington are not like us.
00:39:43.640
Like, I feel like we make decisions and we stick with them unless there's new evidence that changes our mind.
00:39:49.580
Like, that's how you're, I thought that's how you're supposed to operate.
00:39:52.200
For them, it just seems to be, well, what's in front of me at this moment?
00:39:57.660
Like, that is seemingly how all decisions are made these days.
00:40:01.920
Democrat Senator, in fact, Michael Bennett of Colorado has said he'll force a government shutdown to secure more Ukraine aid.
00:40:49.720
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:41:14.320
Am I the only one that is so hateful that I don't think we should be this heavily involved with Ukraine?
00:41:25.960
I saw it on your car out there, that big I loved Vladimir Putin bumper sticker.
00:41:34.720
And I hooked up speakers on my car that blare the Soviet national anthem wherever I go.
00:41:40.320
It's not even the anthem they're using anymore.
00:41:50.520
We'll talk about some of the possibilities for Speaker of the House and what their plans for Ukraine would be.
00:42:02.540

00:43:25.260
Stu, we haven't really had a chance to talk about this this week together.
00:43:29.140
But were you as surprised as I was that they removed Kevin McCarthy as quickly and easily as they did?
00:43:36.900
It was interesting and, you know, I have some concerns about removing Kevin McCarthy.
00:43:49.500
I'm worried about how this plays out because, you know, there's a few different ways it can.
00:44:02.440
I was talking about this with Glenn yesterday and he looked at me with these glazed over eyes as if he had no idea what I was speaking.
00:44:10.900
It's fourth and eight and you're at your own 25-yard line.
00:44:15.180
Most of the coaches in that situation want to punt.
00:44:18.260
But a few people, let's say Matt Gates, Coach Gates, is like, hey, let's go for it.
00:44:26.740
I'd like to see the analytics and say go for it on fourth and eight from your own 25.
00:44:32.000
There are some analytics that say go for it a lot more than you'd think.
00:44:39.420
So, now there's this big fight on the sidelines.
00:44:47.980
Now, Coach Gates seems to be taking a victory lap at this point, which is a little early.
00:44:54.520
Because we have not actually had the play yet to see if we succeed at the fourth and eight.
00:45:03.000
And, like, I'd argue, you know, we're getting to this in a second, but, like, someone like
00:45:05.800
Jim Jordan is, you've converted the fourth and eight.
00:45:19.560
We just saw that Scalise has a, I think it was 54% record at Freedom, Freedom Record?
00:45:38.780
Like, if Chip Roy, like, if you had a path to get Chip Roy to be Speaker of the House,
00:45:44.680
I mean, I hate to take it to another sport, but that's a home run.
00:45:54.480
The number one thing you have to do in this situation is not cheer yourself for convincing
00:45:59.280
the coaching staff to go for it at fourth and eight.
00:46:01.500
Number one, you have to have a really good play.
00:46:04.260
You better have a play that's going to get eight yards.
00:46:07.280
And number two, you don't celebrate it until you've actually converted the fourth down.
00:46:16.960
If you think about the way that this could play out, right?
00:46:19.960
You have situation, let's say, situation one, which is you get all Republicans aligned,
00:46:27.360
And you push through somebody like Jim Jordan, like Steve Scalise, and you'll get a roughly
00:46:36.960
But again, they're still in a situation where they're only one third of this process, right?
00:46:44.700
There's a high limitation as to what Jordan can actually accomplish with this job.
00:46:50.980
So, even if you get Jim Jordan, who I think, from a perspective of ideology and approach,
00:46:59.240
I think would be a vast improvement, he's still very limited into how much he can do
00:47:04.680
So, I think what you get there is a similar result.
00:47:08.840
You'll probably get something similar to what you got with McCarthy, maybe a little improved,
00:47:15.880
But you're generally going to be in the same area.
00:47:19.840
The next idea is, let's say these eight people who would not vote for McCarthy, they can't
00:47:26.240
get them on board with somebody other than Jordan that they can all agree on.
00:47:29.980
So, what they have to do is try to pull in a few Democrats into that vote.
00:47:34.460
Now, that undoubtedly is going to get you a worse result than what we have because you're
00:47:40.160
getting Democrats to come in and agree to go along with us.
00:47:43.880
That's option number two, and that option is worse.
00:47:51.760
Next up is a situation where both extremes, the AOC wing of the party, the Democrats, and
00:47:59.960
the Matt Gaetz wing of the Republicans, hate whoever they're nominating, but the middle agrees,
00:48:07.420
You get all the moderates from both sides coming together and saying, you know what, we'll put
00:48:11.420
that person up because they're going to be, like, if they were to put up, I don't know,
00:48:14.740
someone in the Joe Manchin or Mitt Romney, right?
00:48:19.620
Like, again, I know they're senators, but like, the equivalent of that person in the middle,
00:48:24.200
could you get a bunch of Republicans and a bunch of Democrats to come together and say,
00:48:28.880
look, this is our, the establishment types, this is our, this is important, we must move
00:48:34.400
this along, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, we need someone who can bring us together,
00:48:38.560
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and they get that person through.
00:48:40.900
Well, that person, again, you're talking about someone who's, this is going to be much worse
00:48:47.940
And then the fourth option, because you already have similar, worse, or much worse.
00:48:54.340
The last option is the Democrats unite and they are able to pick off four or five moderate
00:49:01.780
Republicans, whoever you think the four or five worst Republicans are in that caucus.
00:49:06.060
And they pick off four or five of them to join with them on their nomination, not necessarily
00:49:11.940
of Hakeem Jeffries, I don't think that would ever happen, but someone that the Democrats
00:49:15.300
say, you know what, this is going to be better than we're ever going to get from a Republican
00:49:21.380
And we'll, we'll, we'll push that guy through with almost no Republican support.
00:49:25.940
And then you're in a level of catastrophe, right?
00:49:31.380
So when your four options are similar, worse, much worse, and catastrophic, do you go for
00:49:44.720
And I have no defense of McCarthy as a speaker.
00:49:50.300
He, the only argument you can make for him is there's almost nothing he can do in this
00:49:55.640
The only thing he can do, he's not going to get some massive passing, spending cut passed.
00:50:02.620
He's got to get through the Democratic Senate and Joe Biden.
00:50:06.280
We could all have come up with this, you know, this, this idea that he's going to pass this
00:50:16.460
And by the way, the thing he passed, which I was not happy with.
00:50:23.060
Now they, they talked about a special deal, maybe being cut that it would come back later.
00:50:29.680
Plus I will say that he promised a 98% of the budget when this would happen, when, when
00:50:35.620
they had to do the continuing resolutions, he would go for 98% of spending.
00:50:42.360
He actually went further than that and went to 92% of what we were spending.
00:50:47.620
So we actually did more than he promised them to do in January, which is interesting.
00:50:53.880
I don't think there's no defense of McCarthy here, but I don't, yes, I'm not particularly
00:51:04.300
And so, you know, you, again, you make a cost benefit analysis when you make this decision
00:51:08.760
and if you think the risk is worth it, okay, go for it.
00:51:13.820
Like if, if what you had beforehand was Jim Jordan and you knew you could get him through,
00:51:18.460
I think this would be a really, I'd be completely behind this move and I would not be worried
00:51:27.300
You know, I think it's possible that Gates and Jordan talked beforehand and said, Hey,
00:51:33.880
Can Jordan get through the moderate side of this caucus?
00:51:41.900
And I don't think it's impossible, but I wouldn't say if you would have asked, if you would have
00:51:48.120
asked some Washington expert five years ago, whether Jim Jordan could become Speaker of
00:51:57.560
I mean, he was, he was not interested in the job even.
00:52:01.080
Because the last time this was even a question, he's like, no, I'm not.
00:52:05.780
He was nominated several times, but he didn't even really want to be considered.
00:52:09.060
And again, this is, even if you love Jordan, you're also picking someone who voted for McCarthy.
00:52:15.800
And I think there's an argument to be made that that's like, look, I think it can be
00:52:21.260
an improvement, but if the argument is, well, you know, you don't want someone who works
00:52:25.460
with Democrats, you have to point out that these eight Republicans worked with Democrats
00:52:34.440
And I, look, I'm okay with the move if you could improve the situation, but this is, as
00:52:41.160
we talked about last hour, yet another thing that takes us away from talking about Joe
00:52:51.660
And I still don't know that the risk would have been worth it because just because you
00:52:58.280
go for it on fourth and eight from your own 25 and make it doesn't make it the right move.
00:53:04.760
There's too much risk associated with that move.
00:53:06.840
But if you make it, at least we can all celebrate a good thing.
00:53:12.180
And I mean, he's on board with stopping the ridiculous spending on Ukraine.
00:53:18.760
He was asked by Manu Raju from CNN, are you willing to move forward with an aid package
00:53:30.940
At some point, we're going to have to deal with this appropriations process in the right
00:53:35.860
We're going to try to do that in the next 41 days.
00:53:38.780
The most pressing issue on Americans' mind is not Ukraine.
00:53:42.960
It's the border situation and it's crime on the streets.
00:53:52.760
By the way, if you want to look at polling when you talk about priorities, things that matter
00:53:57.720
to Americans are the economy, number one, border is right up there, you know, that is what they're
00:54:05.420
And so considering you happen to have the two things that Americans are most concerned about
00:54:10.140
as obvious disasters from the Biden administration, you'd think that would be the focus.
00:54:16.780
Those two things can get you through an election.
00:54:18.760
Now, look, the left is going to try to bring up abortion, which isn't nearly as high a priority
00:54:26.300
when it comes to polling of American citizens, including Republican primary voters.
00:54:30.740
I don't agree with that priority arrangement, but it is important to note that that's where it is.
00:54:39.340
So Democrats are going to try to pull things like this.
00:54:41.340
They're going to say, you know, Donald Trump is mean and he says mean things to people.
00:54:50.200
And number two, hey, abortion, they're going to take your right away to kill your kid.
00:54:55.980
I can't powerful, powerful arguments that really you should be making massive decisions
00:54:59.780
on the country's future based on both of those things.
00:55:02.200
The protection of your right to murder children.
00:55:07.220
Those two things are vitally important to our country's future.
00:55:10.980
But they're not that high on people's priority lists on either side.
00:55:15.820
It's just that the right now there's a little bit of a snapback from Roe versus Wade being
00:55:24.400
And they have been able to win some of these elections on smaller scales and states.
00:55:28.980
And they see this as their only path to success.
00:55:30.980
And that's because Republicans allow them to control the narrative.
00:55:45.640
Like you lose an election in a red state over abortion.
00:55:51.880
I mean, look at the way that Donald Trump talks about it.
00:55:54.100
This is a guy who has arguably the best record of any president on pro-life issues.
00:55:59.840
Because he was able to put into motion the overturning of Roe versus Wade.
00:56:06.060
Look, yes, you can make the argument that he just is picking off a list from the Federalist
00:56:19.740
And look, do I think Ted Cruz would have picked good justices that would have?
00:56:23.520
Yes, I do think he would have been fined in that respect.
00:56:27.460
Donald Trump did what he promised to do when it came to overturning Roe versus Wade.
00:56:34.580
And we've admitted a thousand times on the air, neither one of us ever thought we'd see
00:56:39.120
So that record is really strong from a pro-life perspective.
00:56:42.140
But now he's saying, you know, look, a heartbeat bill is a major mistake.
00:56:53.360
Every year, over 15,000 independent farms and ranches in America are driven out of business.
00:57:08.940
Because 85% of the grass-fed beef in America is imported from overseas.
00:57:14.600
You probably didn't notice that in stores because foreign meat often wears a product
00:57:20.960
If you want American beef and chicken that you can trust and you want to help rebuild
00:57:28.820
Every purchase puts healthy, high-quality meat on your plate and supports local farms in
00:57:35.320
So stop buying imported goods at the store and get American-raised meat from GoodRanchers.com.
00:57:41.320
Make sure you use my code GLEN at checkout for a bonus of $30 off your first order of America's
00:57:48.340
You can support American ranchers and farmers by ordering at GoodRanchers.com and using the

We're just watching the situation with George Santos, still in office, still a congressman,
00:58:24.480
And he's not even close to our worst congressman, which is hilarious.
00:58:30.360
It's funny because, first of all, New York has been bringing us some real gems lately.
00:58:38.240
The guy who pulled the fire alarm the other day.
00:58:40.460
And what's funny about this is like, number one, if you're George Santos, you don't get
00:58:46.380
Like, that's not one of the things you're allowed to do.
00:58:49.660
But number two, he's making these videos about Bowman and the fire alarm.
00:58:53.800
Like, if you're being dunked on by George Santos, you should just stop.
00:59:00.700
The biggest liar in the history of American politics.
00:59:03.860
Remove yourself immediately from Congress if you're getting dunked on.
00:59:11.280
And you know what, if we don't clean out our own house, how can you expect to clean
00:59:19.140
I mean, let's please take care of our dirty laundry, George Santos being among that laundry,
00:59:33.880
I don't wish anything bad for him, but he's got massive health problems and he won't even
00:59:43.440
You're the Senate minority or, yeah, minority leader.
00:59:49.640
We have no right to know about your health situation?
00:59:56.620
He didn't have enough, he didn't have enough Gatorade that day.
01:00:04.480
And I think those things go hand in hand a little bit.
01:00:20.280
I was a little lightheaded there and I haven't had a drink of water for a while.
01:00:23.640
I apologize to hundreds and hundreds of radio stations who thought they just lost the
01:00:27.700
I realized that halfway through your pause and I was like, ah, but it's true.
01:00:34.700
And look, what's interesting about, I don't know, and correct me if I'm wrong, but the
01:00:39.500
people that I heard talk about that incident on the conservative side, I know I was there,
01:00:46.600
Just like we said about John Fetterman and Joe Biden and Dianne Feinstein.
01:00:56.380
I don't want someone who can't get through a sentence as the leader of the Senate for
01:01:03.080
I've never seen anybody with a double standard on this.
01:01:05.460
I don't know anybody who says, no, leave Mitch McConnell alone.
01:01:15.100
Santos, and by the way, they were protected in the McConnell situation because McConnell changed
01:01:20.440
the law to make it so Republicans got to nominate the next senator because they have a Democratic
01:01:26.220
governor, and then the Democratic governor picks from, I think, a list of three that
01:01:31.700
The Santos situation is more complicated because they only have a four-seat majority, and they
01:01:37.520
could very well lose that district in the next election because it's not a bright red
01:01:44.860
So that one is a tougher one because it's so tight.
01:01:48.140
I can understand why they're just shrugging their shoulders and saying, there's nothing
01:01:51.300
we can do right now, but they'll try to take him out in the primary.
01:02:04.540
If you're living with aches and pains, especially if they're frequent and nagging and relentless,
01:02:09.120
I want you to take a moment and think back to the last time you really felt good.
01:02:16.860
What would you give to go back to feeling like that again?
01:02:20.160
Maybe it would just be nice to take a stroll with your loved one or play with your grandchildren.
01:02:24.100
I've suffered from persistent, crippling pain almost all the time for about five years.
01:02:29.340
When I started taking Relief Factor, I took it because my wife made me start taking it.
01:02:34.800
Yet here I am today, virtually pain-free, doing the things I love to do, all thanks to my wonderful
01:02:41.680
I love that it's not a drug, but it was developed by doctors, and about 70% of the people who
01:02:47.760
Are you part of that 70% that can get your life back?
01:02:50.520
Your first step to becoming pain-free just might be to order the three-week quick start
01:03:24.300
Coming up is Joe Biden's major speech on convincing America that we've got to continue the unlimited
01:03:32.660
aid for an unlimited period of time to Ukraine.
01:03:39.520
And I'm going to call you out on it when I hear you do it.
01:03:52.600
So after the job is finally done, then we'll stop?
01:03:58.940
Yeah, we're going to have to rebuild the whole country first.
01:04:03.000
Like, let's say we just make it into a giant Disneyland.
01:04:07.880
Well, we need to keep the maintenance going, obviously.
01:04:10.300
But I mean, most of the spending will be gone by then.
01:04:17.180
Once we get to that number, I think we'll be...
01:04:18.800
Eleventy trillion is, you think, maybe the number.
01:04:22.140
I do think it's around that number, apparently.
01:04:28.300
Because it's going to go on forever, as they've told us.
01:04:37.380
And I don't know where conservatives are necessarily on this.
01:04:41.920
I think a lot of us are fed up with this, with the never-ending wars and our never-ending
01:04:47.680
intervention into everybody else's wars and nation-building.
01:04:59.880
Maybe we're so far from the plan, the original plan the Founding Fathers laid out for us,
01:05:05.220
to stay out of everybody else's mess, let Europe do Europe, and we'll just watch from
01:05:13.620
You know, we don't do that and haven't done that for a long, long time.
01:05:19.100
If we're attacked, then by golly, yes, let's put the hammer down on whoever it is that attacked
01:05:28.020
But this never-ending stuff, this as long as it takes, as much as it takes for a nation,
01:05:33.320
and you're going to have a hard time making the point, I think, that this is in the best
01:05:39.660
And they'll, of course, say that it won't stop with Ukraine.
01:05:43.060
They're going to attack other NATO countries and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
01:05:46.780
I think the deeper we get into this, the bigger the opportunity is for us to send troops there.
01:05:53.360
And I just fear that this ends with boots on the ground.
01:05:59.720
And the reason you think that is because they set down 15 red lines already that we've crossed.
01:06:06.140
Like, the tanks crossed that line, fighter jets crossed that line.
01:06:11.600
The only thing in that speech that he hasn't done are the battle trains.
01:06:15.860
And I don't know when he's going to send the battle trains into Ukraine.
01:06:24.540
Because I know you have a real affinity for trains in general.
01:06:31.200
Who thought we could waste more money on trains in this world?
01:06:37.120
But it's funny because you look at that and you say, okay.
01:06:42.600
I listened to a little bit of Mike Pence yesterday on with Megyn Kelly.
01:06:52.280
He and Nikki Haley are driving me out of my mind.
01:06:54.680
And this is really, this is sort of new for you.
01:07:01.720
You would have, I think, there was a time in your life.
01:07:03.940
In the early 2000s, I would have been, yeah, let's do this.
01:07:10.740
And, you know, when you change your opinion, as you have done, you explain why and what information has decided to change.
01:07:18.380
Unlike our politicians who just whimsically go from one side to the other.
01:07:29.720
In that, especially when, after you've spent 20 years dealing with that situation, and then you just throw it away at the end and give it back to the enemy.
01:07:38.660
You really have sort of a, I'm a little resistant to that.
01:07:43.620
So, like, I look at this and I say, okay, look, if I'm a Ukrainian citizen, I am absolutely advocating for us to do, if I'm in Ukraine, to do everything you can to push back the Russian army.
01:07:59.520
Like, I don't want to give one freaking inch of territory, including Crimea, to the Russians.
01:08:06.640
I, as a Ukrainian, if I were a Ukrainian, would be saying a lot of the things that you hear from more hawkish opinions of the United States.
01:08:19.400
Yeah, I would ask all the time the Americans to give me stuff.
01:08:26.160
Look, they are literally, they're fighting for their lives there.
01:08:29.320
They are fighting for their country, their sovereignty.
01:08:35.140
The question is whether we should be involved in it, at least at this scale.
01:08:38.940
Like, you could argue, hey, can we help out in some humanitarian way?
01:08:43.280
There's some kid who's starving and we need to get him some food.
01:08:46.640
There's a lot of charities doing a lot of that work, and it's good work.
01:08:48.880
I know people who've gone to the border of Poland and Ukraine and have fought, not fought in the battle, but fought to be able to supply these people with food.
01:09:03.440
And I don't think there's anything wrong with that instinct.
01:09:10.540
But if there was an argument being made, let's be honest about it.
01:09:15.060
If there was an argument being made, look, we just need to give humanitarian aid to the people affected by this war.
01:09:22.380
I think the pushback here is the argument that we might get pulled into this.
01:09:27.520
And you've got to depend on Joe Biden and his magical competence to be able to keep us out of that situation.
01:09:37.220
How could anybody put their trust into this brain-dead president?
01:09:46.460
And I don't understand how he's so different on this particular situation than any other in the past.
01:10:01.240
We're talking about the number two or number three, I guess, maybe behind China, superpower, or elevated power.
01:10:09.020
It's certainly one of the main countries you'd worry about in a nuclear conflict.
01:10:12.960
The one, the country with, let's say it plainly here, the most nuclear weapons of any country, including us in the world, okay?
01:10:22.860
With a leader who is at some level unstable, who made a decision here, which is erratic at best to go in in the first place, completely misjudged what was going to happen.
01:10:37.560
And while he's been able to gain some territory, actually, over the past few months, he's lost a little bit, not gained any.
01:10:44.320
He's in a position where he absolutely cannot give up on this war because he will, you know, he's put too much into it.
01:10:52.360
He'll look really bad and likely, you know, be thrown out of office in some sort of coup if he gets overturned.
01:10:59.540
But he does not see this as something he can give in to.
01:11:07.180
Like, it's possible they could come up with some sort of settlement where maybe they maintain most of the territory that they have.
01:11:14.160
And honestly, that's what we should be pushing for behind the scenes.
01:11:17.880
Again, if I'm in Ukraine, I don't like that answer.
01:11:22.140
But as America, prioritizing the avoidance of World War III is what I want.
01:11:29.680
And they don't seem to be interested in that at all.
01:11:41.980
You know, like, I think if there's a way to protect someone on the other end of a genocide that we can do inexpensively and without elevating this to World War III, I think it's worth looking into.
01:12:00.340
You've got a million people being murdered in a very short period of time.
01:12:10.500
They're not going to start throwing their machetes at us from Rwanda, right?
01:12:14.740
Like, it's not something that can escalate into World War III.
01:12:17.900
It's not something that necessarily we have to be there for an endless amount of time.
01:12:22.000
And it's something that we could do really cheaply.
01:12:25.360
Like, you put a bunch of guys in there with AK-47s.
01:12:30.500
And yet we turned a blind eye to that and we're like, meh.
01:12:32.620
Our calculation on that by President Bill Clinton was, eh.
01:12:42.300
Because we put no value in the lives of the Tutsis versus the Hutus in that particular battle.
01:12:50.480
And I, you know, I think the argument that would be made by many people would be that we didn't care because it was far away and it didn't affect us.
01:12:58.580
Well, you know, like, there's a situation that you could at least make the argument.
01:13:02.700
A lot of libertarians would say, look, you stay out of it no matter what.
01:13:05.620
I can respect that ideological line, if that is your ideological line.
01:13:09.840
But that is a case where I think there's a sensible choice for us to be involved.
01:13:14.740
Here is a choice where, look, if you want to be involved in some capacity, you can take sides in this.
01:13:24.040
I don't look at them as these golden children, especially their government.
01:13:28.820
But they were invaded by a foreign power in a way that is completely wrong, in my view.
01:13:34.600
And I don't want, I didn't want Vladimir Putin to win this battle.
01:13:38.960
My preference would be he loses every inch of this territory, including Crimea, which we should have said back in 2014 when they took it.
01:13:46.180
But the president of the United States at that time, Barack Obama, was like, eh.
01:13:55.560
I want him to feel like he should never do this again.
01:14:01.660
It can exist at the same time by not, as an opinion of not wanting your country to be involved in World War III.
01:14:09.140
And I, look, to be clear, if we were in a situation where we, maybe we would oppose, if Joe Biden invaded Canada right now, and he was just like, we got to get that, we got to get the Rogers Center, the Blue Jays have got to be part of this country.
01:14:31.000
Plus, they own about 90% of the world supply of maple syrup.
01:14:37.520
And if he went in there and he thought he was going to take over the country in a few days and it failed, we might be critical of him for this is a bad move.
01:14:44.180
We might think it was an unjust war on our behalf.
01:14:47.160
But at the end of the day, if Russia was funding the Canadian military with enough crap to kill thousands of our soldiers in that war.
01:15:00.420
And we would be on the air, I guarantee you, arguing that we should be doing a hell of a lot more to not hold just Canada responsible for what's going on, but also Russia.
01:15:09.540
We'd also be saying, Vlad, do you understand that they're hoarding the world supply of maple syrup?
01:15:22.780
They have also almost the entire world supply of Mazdas.
01:15:26.300
Now, we have Mazdas, but they have Mazdas there.
01:15:40.780
As long as we're invading countries for stupid things like that.
01:15:45.940
We need to invade the UK as well because of the Jaguar thing.
01:16:08.480

01:17:37.280
Rangers are in it, which are a big team around here in Dallas.
01:17:40.640
But I make this appeal not because my team loses two games in a row every time this happens.
01:17:49.500
I think it hurts more because my favorite team lost in two games again and scored one run over two games.
01:18:00.600
I lived and died with them winning and losing in the last couple months to see if they would get into the playoffs.
01:18:13.800
But, like, you play 162 games and then you have a three-game series.
01:18:19.240
Like, baseball is a long-term sport, not a short-term.
01:18:29.860
That's the best way to do a baseball series because you have to see at least usually four starting pitchers, right?
01:18:36.460
Sometimes three, but you can get away with three, but the whole long season is about having partially five good pitchers to start games.
01:18:44.420
And then you go into the playoffs and you're like, ah, you only need two now.
01:18:48.960
And so, and I'll make this argument for the Rays, who I am not a fan of.
01:18:54.080
They won, what, 98 games this year and they're gone in two days?
01:19:03.980
And what, three people showed up for the playoffs, though?
01:19:12.260
We were in a Tampa-based show when they started.
01:19:17.360
You know, you get all this excitement, new franchise.
01:19:20.480
And they had, because we were the home of the Tampa Bay Rays, the Devil Rays at the time,
01:19:26.380
they got a bunch of tickets for everyone to come, you know, who worked at the station to go see.
01:19:30.240
And when I would leave every day, walking up the station, on the desk where the, you know,
01:19:35.880
the assistant who had them was, there's just a giant stack of tickets.
01:19:40.080
And every day, they'd just be sitting there at the edge of the desk for anyone walking out to just take.
01:19:49.060
Like, that distance is a tough distance, especially during rush hour to go to if you're from Tampa.
01:19:54.280
And the team was bad, and no one was showing up, and no one liked the stadium, and they're still in the same place.
01:20:06.700
But, like, the Rays have accomplished much more, I would argue, than the A's have.
01:20:15.360
But no one seems to pay attention to them for whatever reason.
01:20:18.900
But again, they shouldn't be out after having two bad games.
01:20:24.440
It's just a ridiculous thing that they've got to change.
01:20:53.240
We've got to stand together, it's the chorus of life.
01:21:12.980
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:21:25.500
We've got to get into the issue on everybody's mind right now.
01:21:35.660
I mean, I feel like we're almost like the NFL now.
01:21:40.920
When you hear that, you're going to hear just about to have a story about sexy red.
01:22:00.720
Whether it's about going on your daily tasks or exercising, you know you're well when you're
01:22:07.620
But what happens when being active actually hurts by the end of the day?
01:22:11.140
This is the position I found myself in a number of years ago.
01:22:14.060
Everything I wanted to do in my daily life, all of the activity it called for, was held
01:22:22.500
When I heard about Relief Factor, I was skeptical, but my wife said, give it a chance.
01:22:26.920
Not long after I took it, I could feel the pain begin to melt away, and I've been taking
01:22:32.420
And I can tell you that Relief Factor has helped me get my life back.
01:22:36.060
I love that it's not a drug, but it was developed by doctors, and about 70% of the people
01:22:41.940
Your first step to becoming pain-free just might be ordering a three-week quick start
01:22:55.860
Find out all about this offer and feel the difference.
01:23:12.400
And this is a dumb question, but are you familiar with Sexy Red?
01:23:27.880
So, when you're on Spotify, like how many of your top songs of 2023 will be Sexy Red songs?
01:23:43.220
You say, hey, I can listen to another Sexy Red song or a song from someone else.
01:23:54.480
I'll just play that same Sexy Red song over and over again.
01:24:00.100
Well, I could, but I'm not going to insult people's intelligence.
01:24:03.060
You know, who are just as big, if not bigger, Sexy Red fans than I am.
01:24:12.080
We've done a lot of audience research, and we find we have the highest crossover with Sexy Red.
01:24:16.700
Now, Pat, can I just ask you, this is a quick question.
01:25:00.880
Because other times, you just, you don't do the extra Y.
01:25:10.160
And now she is, some people say, wait, I don't even know who Sexy Red is.
01:25:26.820
Now, I can't read you any of the lyrics from the song Poundtown.
01:25:36.620
And we were kicked off immediately from the air.
01:25:40.760
But if you would like to go listen to Poundtown, you could do that on any major streaming device.
01:25:45.860
I would say you could listen to the clean version.
01:25:51.240
So you might think the first part of the story is not going to surprise you.
01:25:57.540
Because the author of the song Poundtown has shockingly had a sex tape which has leaked.
01:26:11.180
You know, you wouldn't think the author of Poundtown would have a song that, or have a sex tape that would be leaked.
01:26:18.740
Because why would she be engaged in such things?
01:26:25.640
But someone apparently filmed her having sex with some gentleman.
01:26:32.400
Now, again, we have a twist in the story here, Pat.
01:26:40.620
Let's think about the history of the sex tape being released, right?
01:26:45.360
There's a sex tape that is filmed, usually, sometimes without someone's consent.
01:26:53.780
But then the other party in the tape releases it.
01:26:57.160
Or someone hacks into a phone, gets control of a sex tape, and then releases it online or tries to make money off of it.
01:27:04.440
We've seen this pattern play out many, many times.
01:27:06.580
I do not think I've seen this particular pattern play out, though.
01:27:11.280
Because the sexy red sex tape was released on sexy red's own Instagram feed.
01:27:24.900
She claims she did not release her sex tape intentionally to draw attention to herself.
01:27:33.640
And, of course, I believe her because the author of Poundtown would be out of her character to release a sex tape on her own Instagram feed.
01:27:45.240
And you might say this is a little Anthony Wiener-esque as far as convincing me of this.
01:27:56.780
You'd think maybe the author of Poundtown just says, yeah, I did it because I thought it was awesome.
01:28:00.540
You know, like you'd almost kind of think that would be her attitude here.
01:28:13.520
And it's a fascinating one because it seems our own sexy red may get canceled.
01:28:24.560
And you might think, well, why does she get canceled?
01:28:25.940
Because she released a sex tape on her own Instagram feed?
01:28:30.520
That's going to do nothing but endear her to her legions of fans.
01:28:35.940
However, she did something that crossed the line.
01:28:39.200
And you might know that the line for sexy red is way out there.
01:28:50.500
Are you ready to hear sexy red discussing her, the end of her career?
01:28:56.160
She did the one thing you cannot do in today's society.
01:29:02.640
Do you think more people are going to support Trump now?
01:29:07.800
Because at first, I don't think people was fucking with him like they thought he was racist,
01:29:13.260
saying little shit and, you know, against women.
01:29:16.040
But once he started getting black people out of jail and giving people their free money,
01:29:23.220
Yeah, a little bit of free money goes a long way.
01:29:31.160
That's like, whoa, Vicky, she's always talking about Trump.
01:29:38.740
Like, I used to watch his interviews, not interviews, like, him talking to people.
01:29:48.220
So, she did the one thing you're not allowed to do.
01:29:54.700
So, therefore, she must be excommunicated from society.
01:30:02.680
But the fact that she likes Trump means she should be excommunicated.
01:30:09.540
This is one of the most layered stories we've dealt with all week.
01:30:16.700
This is by far the most interesting story of the week to me.
01:30:21.700
It's also fascinating about what she likes about Trump.
01:30:26.860
What she likes about Trump is that he gives her free money.
01:30:46.320
I mean, how is this not a Trump campaign commercial yet?
01:30:59.080
You'll get lots of stimulus checks and I'll call people fat.
01:31:07.700
Now, one, who is a conservative persuasion, might be a little concerned that a bunch of
01:31:18.280
stimulus checks, not holding people accountable for crimes, the fat part I'm pretty much fine
01:31:25.400
But other than that, the other stuff that she likes about Trump, I would not say are on
01:31:29.780
the top echelons of the things that I like about Trump.
01:31:33.340
I mean, if black people are innocent, of course they should be let out of jail.
01:31:37.360
They should probably face the consequences of their actions, whether they're black or
01:31:43.460
That one, you know, not my favorite policy of Trump's.
01:31:48.760
Secondarily, giving free money and stimulus checks, very much not my favorite policy of
01:31:59.400
You know, look, Sexy Red is one of our leaders when it comes to political analysis.
01:32:06.880
And then that, you know, let's not forget that part.
01:32:11.980
I mean, just Poundtown alone gets you to that level, let alone the sex tape, let alone the
01:32:26.600
But, I mean, would this, if you're the average voter, does this change the way you're looking?
01:32:32.440
Like, if you were, hey, I thought DeSantis might be pretty good, but, you know, Trump gives
01:32:42.880
Would that be the type of thing you think the decision-making process, like in a state
01:32:46.440
like Iowa, do you think they're looking at this and they're saying, oh, definitely.
01:32:49.620
No, I was a big Pence supporter yesterday, but now, how can I?
01:32:58.000
I would definitely look for that clip to be in an ad for Trump any day now.
01:33:03.000
So, I'll bet, like a lot of her base is really pissed at her.
01:33:08.340
Yeah, it does seem like she's getting, you know.
01:33:12.680
Again, for all the other stuff she's done in her life, this is the thing that she's getting
01:33:19.440
What an incredible civilization we have going right now.
01:33:23.560
And I will say it's also interesting that, you know, look, again, we could overanalyze.
01:33:28.380
Maybe we have overanalyzed the sexy red commentary here.
01:33:31.200
But I do think there is an aspect of this where it's just people remembering that the economy
01:33:38.140
I remember what didn't feel like, when Bidenomics wasn't here and things felt pretty good.
01:33:44.180
I mean, I don't think there's a hugely deep analysis there, but I do think that feeling
01:33:53.560
Who might have problems with Donald Trump on a bunch of different stuff, but just say,
01:34:13.720
Ever since he tried the Rough Greens for the first time, my dog, Uno, has changed.
01:34:19.800
I hear from people all the time in the audience.
01:34:22.740
I mean, hundreds and hundreds of letters have come in who have had the same experience with
01:34:27.460
They've heard me talk about Rough Greens on the show.
01:34:30.580
And as soon as they sprinkle it on the dog's food, the dog literally wolfs it down.
01:34:36.880
It's just chock full of vitamins and minerals and probiotics and omega oils that you sprinkle.
01:34:45.240
From the first time he tried Rough Greens, Uno was in love.
01:34:48.280
Some dogs take a little bit to get used to the new flavor, though.
01:34:51.220
Dr. Dennis Black, the inventor of Rough Greens, was on the phone with me last week.
01:34:54.980
He doesn't want that to be a reason for you not to try.
01:34:57.220
So right now, he's got a special gift available.
01:34:59.360
You can get a free bag of Rough Greens for your dog just to try out.
01:35:04.900
Go to roughgreens.com slash Beck or call 833-GLEN-33.
01:35:09.640
Put it on your dog's food and begin to watch your dog become healthier.
01:35:25.640
Now, some have claimed that they've debunked Sexy Red's portrayal of Donald Trump's presidency.
01:35:39.160
I hope this is not too deep for the audience to follow because this sort of economic analysis
01:36:00.120
He debunked Red's thoughts with, quote, clearly some people don't know how the stimulus checks
01:36:09.140
worked, whose money it actually was slash is, and how it got distributed.
01:36:22.240
Oh, and what's hilarious about this is it's just a point to say, not that stimulus checks
01:36:28.200
It seems to just be that, like, no, you shouldn't give Trump the credit for them.
01:36:33.680
Now, when he says whose money it actually was, I'll tell you who's, first of all, it's
01:36:37.980
probably China's, or it was printed, or it was mine.
01:36:43.720
It was everyone in this audience who funded all of that so that people could get free money
01:36:50.940
So, I look at this as actually a negative on Trump's presidential record, which obviously
01:36:55.620
there was a lot of positive as well, but Trump never prioritized spending.
01:37:04.400
Ran as a candidate who said, I will never touch an entitlement program, right?
01:37:09.020
Like, that was, obviously, he went outside the norms of Republican thought at that time,
01:37:14.520
paid off for him, won the election, won the primary, but not my favorite part of his presidency
01:37:20.960
And I guess I have a fundamental disagreement with both Sexy Red and Apple Music's Ebro
01:37:33.700
You go into a day thinking, I agree with everything Sexy Red says.
01:37:37.400
And at the end of the day, hey, we have a slight disagreement on one issue.
01:37:41.780
We can easily overlook that, though, because we're such fans.
01:37:47.500
I mean, look, it's not going to hurt my opinion of her music.
01:38:00.880
Remember she was in the same studio that the Beatles recorded it, and that was incredible.
01:38:12.900
You know, look, she's an incredible artist, an incredible political commentator.
01:38:19.860
And, look, she's got some pretty amazing stuff.
01:38:27.420
But a lot of people don't know about Poundtown 2.
01:38:31.080
There's a sequel to Poundtown called Poundtown 2.
01:38:34.540
There's also a song, and this one is one of my favorites, because it hits me to my core.
01:38:44.940
You know how some songs just hit you where you live?
01:39:00.720
But this is from her album, Hood Hottest Princess.
01:39:07.260
Now, some of the songs, I can't give you the titles to, because they have a lot of swears in them.
01:39:14.140
But we have, what about Strictly for the Strippers?
01:39:37.120
Again, so many more of these would be so good if I could say them.
01:39:50.760
And I want to point this out about Poundtown and not being able to recite any of the lyrics.
01:40:01.080
I will remind you of our responsibilities as broadcasters.
01:40:17.560
But there are some lyrics that you can, in fact, read to Poundtown.
01:40:24.340
You might be thinking, like, well, they're probably, like, really sexualized lyrics.
01:40:28.740
And you might be thinking, oh, there's a lot of swears in there.
01:40:33.120
But what you're probably not factoring is how many N-words we'd have to skip.
01:40:44.840
There's also, I will say, a lot of words I don't.
01:40:47.180
And this is going to admit something about myself.
01:40:49.360
But there's a lot of words I don't understand in the lyrics.
01:40:55.820
They're words that I would argue maybe are made up.
01:41:05.000
Yeah, I was a little hesitant on I'm thugging with my rounds.
01:41:15.000
Like, you may have said the worst thing ever uttered on radio and don't even know it.
01:41:28.300
And that's why I didn't want to read any of them.
01:41:36.420
Who didn't know she would get canceled for saying she was a Trump supporter?
01:41:40.900
All she does is like a president who's going to call people fat.
01:41:48.060
If you can't call Chris Christie fat, what kind of country is this?
01:41:53.240
And poor Sexy Red is feeling the heat from this.
01:41:57.740
We're going to start a GoFundMe for Sexy Red coming up.
01:42:04.400
You know, she's just trying to get to Poundtown.
01:42:21.480
It is only a matter of time before you're out of warranty on your vehicle and your vehicles in the shop costing you thousands of dollars.
01:42:28.620
If that unexpected breakdown happened today, would you be ready?
01:42:32.560
Well, you can be with a plan through CarShield.
01:42:35.220
Since I called CarShield, I don't have to worry about repair bills.
01:42:38.740
I have a couple of trucks that are 8, 10 years old plus.
01:42:42.380
CarShield administrators have taken care of absolutely everything when one of them has broken down.

01:43:22.000
Avoiding the woke mainstream messaging in favor of truth.
01:43:35.920
There's more outrage over yet another transgendered person who is competing against girls.
01:43:44.660
This time in Maine, at the XC Festival of Champions last Saturday, Maine Coast Waldorf High School sophomore, Soren Stark Chesa previously competed in the boys category for the school just a year ago and was ranked 172nd.
01:44:11.700
After the transition, there's no, now if I think about the science here, there's no evidence that he would improve going to the female side.
01:44:31.820
So 172nd to number four, but there's no evidence.
01:44:35.460
So it's a little bit of improvement, but yeah, again, there's no evidence.
01:44:38.620
Just like there's no evidence that Joe Biden was involved in anything with Hunter Biden.
01:44:43.400
No evidence that he ever was involved in any of the business partners.
01:44:49.220
Science teaches us quite clearly that there's no difference physically between men and women, boys and girls.
01:44:57.560
Especially when it comes to physical competition.
01:45:03.140
That's why we see examples, so many examples of biological females who have made the transition to male who then compete against men in men's sports.
01:45:15.960
And we see so many of these biological females dominate men in men's sports.
01:45:22.380
Like that was that one case where a woman was ranked like, you know, 172nd and then went over to the men's division was fourth.
01:45:34.940
And then, yeah, except for, well, I don't remember, I don't remember, there's no example of that.
01:45:43.540
There's not one that I know of, but I'd love to hear of one.
01:45:53.360
Like, maybe something like, like gymnastics or something?
01:46:00.020
No, because I think like, while, like the typical female gymnastic, gymnastic participant is so much more flexible than a man with the same athletic ability.
01:46:13.200
The men who can actually do gymnastics are spectacular at these things.
01:46:24.560
But like, they do like the crazy vaulting, for example.
01:46:26.880
Like, again, I don't know enough about gymnastics to know, but they do the bars.
01:46:30.800
They do all sorts of, a lot of the same events.
01:46:33.340
I don't think if, if Simone Biles went over to men's gymnastics, would she be a great men's gymnast?
01:46:42.340
I will say, I have a daughter who does gymnastics.
01:46:48.240
Like, she's, she made the nationals last year and she's doing really well.
01:46:53.200
And she'd only been doing it for a couple, you know, a couple of years.
01:46:55.220
Um, and every part of what she does, all of the things that she does are all things there has not been one day in my life I could do.
01:47:06.000
All of them are so foreign and look completely impossible for a human being to accomplish.
01:47:13.880
That I, there was never a day that I could do any of the things she does.
01:47:23.220
But female, male gymnasts can do those things, right?
01:47:29.700
Unlike a floor routine, they can do the twisting and turning and jumping.
01:47:33.700
Like, my daughter will just be talking to me, like, you know, she's, she's 10.
01:47:37.540
And she's telling me a story and then all of a sudden she'll just sort of start bending backwards.
01:47:42.620
And then all of a sudden her hands will be on the floor.
01:47:46.480
And she's just a, like, like the letter U upside down.
01:47:51.460
And her, her hands and her feet are still on the floor, but she's bent completely backwards.
01:48:00.520
I can safely say, not only can I not do it now at 47 years old, but there has never been a day in my life that I could do it.
01:48:15.600
But, like, the tennis one is an interesting example of this, right?
01:48:19.600
Where, like, tennis, I actually prefer watching women's tennis over men's tennis.
01:48:23.460
Because men's tennis is just 140 mile an hour serves for aces every point.
01:48:30.460
You know, again, it's just, there's not a lot of points.
01:48:36.600
Because we have hardcore proof that what we say is backed up by absolute fact.
01:48:48.140
In fact, we had, we had, was it, some pundit from MSNBC or CNN, I forget which, Kelly Robinson,
01:48:58.840
talking about how there isn't evidence of this, of, like, you know, men and women, they're
01:49:05.620
And if you had, if you put Serena Williams up against a man, she could easily compete with
01:49:13.460
Well, I can say that, you know, there's been this news article about men that think that
01:49:17.020
they could beat Serena Williams in tennis, right?
01:49:19.960
That they think that they could actually score a point on her.
01:49:26.420
Well, let's ask Serena Williams herself about that comment.
01:49:31.900
I'm like, if I were to play Andy Murray, I would lose 6-0, 6-0 in five to six minutes,
01:49:42.380
It's a completely difference where the men are a lot faster and they get, they serve
01:49:53.900
The greatest tennis player of all time, arguably.
01:49:55.900
And then she played the 203rd ranked man in the world.
01:50:01.520
Now, this was because they were at the U.S. Open in, I think it was 97.
01:50:06.680
97 or 98, she and Venus were talking to each other and the guy standing behind them heard
01:50:15.300
They said they could beat anybody in the top 200.
01:50:30.100
6-1, I think, in one case and 6-2 in the other.
01:50:35.560
And he said he didn't serve his hardest because he wanted it to be more competitive.
01:50:39.020
So, that was absolute hardcore proof that what they said at the time, and they learned, you
01:50:50.480
There was also a, didn't the women's national soccer team play, like, a bunch of high school
01:50:58.160
The women's national soccer team played the boys, Dallas 14 and unders.
01:51:17.120
Like, if you were to put that in, like, NFL terms, it would be, like, 3,000 to nothing.
01:51:21.900
That's, that's, it would be the same thing as a, five goals in a game.
01:51:30.160
Well, the women's team also went to England fairly recently.
01:51:33.720
I think this was just in the last six months to a year.
01:51:37.220
And played a series of three matches against some of the teams in the Premier League and
01:51:44.360
Just got destroyed to the point they called the match.
01:51:48.120
After 37 minutes, the, one of the teams, and I, I don't remember which English team it
01:51:53.920
was, but they beat them 12 to nothing in 37 minutes.
01:52:00.480
No, it wasn't one of the top teams in the Premier League.
01:52:04.100
And they played three of them and they lost by a combined 25 to 1 in those three games.
01:52:09.460
Wrexham, this is the team that, I don't know, people are telling me it might be Wrexham
01:52:13.920
Wrexham is the team owned by Rob McElhaney and Ryan Reynolds.
01:52:22.240
But again, Wrexham, you know, I watched a little of that documentary, which was pretty,
01:52:25.420
pretty interesting of them buying that team and going through it.
01:52:28.180
And I don't know much about the, you know, European soccer.
01:52:31.240
They do have one cool thing that I think would be nice to adopt in one of our, one of our
01:52:35.660
real leagues of real sports, which is the thing where like, if you finish dead last, you go
01:52:41.260
And if you finish first in the under division, you move up, which is pretty fun.
01:52:44.920
So they were able to move up, I think this past season up to the, whatever the higher
01:52:56.560
Us talking about soccer is like sexy red talking about politics.
01:53:00.040
So I don't know that we should be doing it, but it is fascinating to watch because, and
01:53:06.200
here's another layer of it being fascinating, Pat.
01:53:08.660
Pat, what you have given this half hour is an excellent argument proving the fact that
01:53:14.800
there is a major difference between men and women in sports.
01:53:17.780
But what's fascinating about that is that you have to give it.
01:53:21.240
There is, everyone knows what you're saying is true, including the idiot you just played
01:53:27.380
from MSNBC, who also knows what she's saying is idiotic, but they are just trying to make
01:53:39.060
It doesn't mean women are less than men as individuals.
01:53:43.100
It just means that they're not as good at sports.
01:53:46.440
We can also probably all admit that white people aren't as good at basketball as black
01:53:56.180
80% of the NBA is African American in a nation with 12% African Americans.
01:54:04.040
That's really good evidence that they're really good at that sport.
01:54:10.400
It might be something to do with their physical makeup.
01:54:18.840
There was a movie called White Men Can't Jump that at the time we all kind of just said,
01:54:26.560
It doesn't mean that white people are bad because of it.
01:54:31.400
And we used to be able to admit that in our country.
01:54:38.740
One of the greatest women's tennis players of all time.
01:54:45.060
And she just destroyed opponents back in her day.
01:54:53.340
She is obviously a lesbian woman who kind of plowed that territory, plowed that ground.
01:55:02.340
And, you know, cleared the way for a lot of other people to be open about their sexuality.
01:55:10.360
But she's not open to the fact that women, that men should compete against women.
01:55:21.400
Honestly, because you get, this is the type of thing you get destroyed for.
01:55:24.520
Now, you know, she has a very strange intersectional relationship with the media.
01:55:28.900
And that, like, they used to just praise her all the time.
01:55:31.420
Now they just, I feel like they've just come to the point of indifference with her.
01:55:33.920
They won't say good or bad things about her anymore.
01:55:36.960
They can't praise her anymore because she's saying stuff that's out of the line.
01:55:40.460
But I also think she's got enough points built up over the years that they don't want to completely trash her either.
01:55:48.100
What are you going to say about Martina Navratilova?
01:55:59.200
I think what she's saying is common sense and the truth.
01:56:12.240
This is what's so weird about our society right now.
01:56:14.300
It's not like, it's not like, you know, minimum wage.
01:56:16.540
We're like, I say, hey, we shouldn't, we should have a lower or no minimum wage federally.
01:56:22.040
And we go back and forth because they really believe what they need.
01:56:24.580
I think they really believe that we need one, even though I think they're wrong.
01:56:28.100
And I think the evidence shows it doesn't work.
01:56:40.860
And yet they go out there every day and say the opposite anyway.
01:56:54.760

01:58:06.540
Pat, can we end the day with a moment of heroism from Al Michaels?
01:58:26.060
And I didn't know about it until today either, but it's one of the greatest achievements, I think, of humankind.
01:58:34.580
Is it true that you have never knowingly eaten a vegetable in your life?
01:58:41.680
I was born when my parents were 18 and my mother hadn't even read Dr. Spock at that point.
01:58:46.960
So, she just let me have the run of the course.
01:58:58.560
And I guess what I've proven, Chris, is that man does not need vegetables to survive.
01:59:05.240
But is it just possible that you would like, I'm thinking of one of the more non-objectionable vegetables, a carrot?
01:59:25.220
And I surmise what it might taste like in terms of the texture of it.
01:59:30.140
I think a lot of it probably has to do with it just doesn't look like something that would go down well.
01:59:37.380
What a great thing to be able to say about yourself.
01:59:39.660
I've never eaten a vegetable in my entire life.
01:59:46.880
Like, I'm sure, you know, if you have a, you know, a sauce, there might be a vegetable kind of mashed up in there you don't know about, right?
01:59:53.340
But he's saying never just eaten one off of a plate in his entire life.
02:00:02.020
I'm the closest to that person as far as people that I know of.
02:00:09.240
As you know, and I've said many times, I am mostly vegetarian.
