Transcript

00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, on demand, love, courage, truth, Glenn Beck.
00:00:16.200 Nancy Pelosi, please report to your bomb shelter.
00:00:19.140 I repeat, Nancy Pelosi, please report to your bomb shelter.
00:00:24.660 Armageddon is not looming.
00:00:27.480 No, it has arrived.
00:00:31.400 You know, we were mocking last week that, you know, the rapture was coming.
00:00:35.380 We're already minus five days past the rapture.
00:00:38.960 I guess none of us were worthy to be taken up.
00:00:42.020 But Armageddon is here now.
00:00:44.660 One of the four horsemen of the apocalypse known as Apple.
00:00:49.920 Brings this this message of our demise and listen, if you dare, but you have been.
00:00:56.220 And listen.
00:00:58.220 You hear the those are the hoof.
00:01:00.560 Those are the hoof beats of the four horsemen of the apocalypse.
00:01:04.860 Apple yesterday announced a record shattering buyback program.
00:01:09.100 When it's all said and done, they will have paid over one hundred billion dollars to their shareholders in the first quarter of this year alone.
00:01:18.540 Apple has paid shareholders twenty three point five billion dollars.
00:01:23.660 That exceeds the value of the majority of the companies in the S&P 500 index.
00:01:29.100 The horror.
00:01:30.340 As as as if all of that death and destruction weren't enough, there is more throughout the March quarter.
00:01:40.200 Apple has paid over three point two billion dollars in dividends.
00:01:44.800 So if you had stock in the company.
00:01:49.880 This evil company paid people money.
00:01:52.620 They also have plans to boost those payments up another 16 percent going forward.
00:01:59.180 And the hits just keep on coming.
00:02:01.540 Now, I know I shouldn't joke about this.
00:02:04.480 If you have stock in in Apple, this is too much to bear.
00:02:10.380 I'd like to ease your suffering.
00:02:12.140 And if it would help, I will be the sacrificial lamb and take those evil capitalist shares off your hands.
00:02:18.900 It's the least I and the audience can do.
00:02:22.880 Are you willing to take if somebody decides to donate, you know, or they just can't bear the thought that capitalism is helping people and they just have to spit themselves out of that evil capitalist system.
00:02:38.260 Please let them know you are willing to take on the burden of their Apple shares.
00:02:45.040 The end is so close.
00:02:46.580 It's so near.
00:02:47.120 I can, yeah, smell sulfur.
00:02:49.660 I can actually smell.
00:02:50.980 Apple yesterday also announced the construction of a new mega campus.
00:02:59.100 They're just building stuff all over the world.
00:03:03.240 Well, here in the United States, they're looking at adding over 20,000 new jobs.
00:03:08.280 Oh, those bastards.
00:03:10.460 Over the next five years, they're predicting now that they will add three hundred and fifty billion dollars to the year.
00:03:17.120 U.S.
00:03:17.420 U.S.
00:03:17.460 economy.
00:03:18.420 I can't take it.
00:03:23.360 America, in dire times such as these.
00:03:27.280 We have to ask ourselves, how did we get here?
00:03:29.960 How did we get to a place to where a company can add 20,000 jobs in the next couple of years, build campus after campus, build campus, build, make money off the backs of people who are so stupid that when they built an Apple store in California and the city government told them not to do it.
00:03:53.040 They built it near a park.
00:03:54.920 So there's trees everywhere.
00:03:56.060 And Apple said, I know what we should do.
00:03:57.700 We should have glass walls.
00:03:59.780 We'll just make this big round glass building like all of our other Apple stores.
00:04:04.600 It should be a glass box.
00:04:05.760 And they said, don't do it.
00:04:07.040 You're in California.
00:04:08.280 People are too stupid.
00:04:09.480 They're going to just they're going to think they're outside.
00:04:12.340 And lo and behold, what is happening?
00:04:13.920 People are getting injured day and night because they are just walking into that glass.
00:04:18.800 They don't see they just assume that they're in a park and that cash register is just sitting out there in the park with all of these devices out in the forest.
00:04:30.020 Now, how does this happen?
00:04:31.460 What what has caused this?
00:04:34.760 What was that final act that caused the waves to come crashing and raining down on us like flaming meteorites of destruction?
00:04:42.420 Well, as it turns out, Nancy Pelosi was right.
00:04:47.100 This is all due.
00:04:49.240 To tax cuts.
00:04:51.140 Tim Cook and Apple have even admitted it.
00:04:55.300 You want to know what the low tax apocalypse looks like?
00:04:59.820 Allow me to quote Tim Cook in an interview he gave talking about the recent tax cuts.
00:05:05.480 But I have to warn you, it is so scary that it sounds as if it was pulled right straight out of the book of Revelation.
00:05:11.720 And I quote.
00:05:14.340 There are two parts of the tax bill.
00:05:17.580 There's a corporate piece and an individual piece.
00:05:20.440 I do believe the corporate tax side will result in job creation and a faster growing economy.
00:05:28.000 End quote.
00:05:28.600 Oh, my gosh.
00:05:29.360 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:05:31.360 More jobs and a faster growing economy.
00:05:33.660 That's not what we want.
00:05:34.880 This is worse than we thought.
00:05:36.340 Look, we've been the ones that have been left behind.
00:05:42.580 Armageddon happened last week.
00:05:45.340 I don't know what we're going to do to fight back this beast, but fear not.
00:05:50.360 We'll figure out a way to get through it.
00:05:52.000 We'll, I don't know.
00:05:53.300 I, pray tell, New York Times, will you run yet another piece about how Karl Marx was right, please?
00:06:02.460 Having a job and getting lots of money.
00:06:04.700 Oh, my gosh.
00:06:05.320 The pain.
00:06:06.080 Do you realize you're going to have to go to the bank more?
00:06:09.420 You're going to, if you get a raise in your salary, you're going to have to, like, figure out what to do with that.
00:06:13.380 Maybe you could be more charitable.
00:06:16.400 You're going to be running back and forth.
00:06:18.080 You're going to have to make new decisions.
00:06:19.340 Where do I put that money?
00:06:20.380 Oh, my, it's a nightmare.
00:06:23.660 But let's dig in, because we're Americans, and we will endure.
00:06:28.560 And don't forget, I'm willing to take a hit, you know, for the good part of this.
00:06:34.200 I'll post instructions on how you can transfer your Apple shares over to me, Nancy Pelosi.
00:06:39.220 It is my burden to bear.
00:06:41.480 It's Wednesday, May 2nd.
00:06:50.800 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:06:54.380 I have to tell you.
00:06:55.460 Hello, Stu.
00:06:56.640 I have to tell you that I'm getting more and more optimistic, which is scaring the hell out of me.
00:07:03.220 Usually when you're optimistic, everything's about to suck.
00:07:05.320 Yeah, I am the guy, and Stu can verify, he's been with me for, you know, 20 years.
00:07:11.020 Pat is the same thing.
00:07:12.040 Pat goes white, because he's been with me for 30 or so years.
00:07:14.960 And he goes white when I go optimistic.
00:07:17.620 He's like, well, he's already the whitest white man in my life.
00:07:19.580 He's like, he has no color.
00:07:21.120 He's like pure white.
00:07:24.240 And I'm the guy that you do not want at the coronation and the first sailing of the Titanic.
00:07:31.880 You don't want me there, because halfway across the ocean, you just, you're saying to the captain, can you shut this guy up?
00:07:38.280 Because I'm the guy going, this thing's going to sink.
00:07:40.460 I'm telling you, it doesn't have enough lifeboats.
00:07:42.160 They're too arrogant.
00:07:43.620 Something's wrong.
00:07:44.280 I'm telling you it's going to happen.
00:07:45.620 And I've counted the light bulb.
00:07:47.080 Have you counted the light bulb?
00:07:47.860 And everybody on board is like, shut the hell up.
00:07:50.400 The minute we hit the iceberg, I'm the guy who's up on the deck going, you, play some music.
00:07:57.240 This is going to be great, guys.
00:07:58.240 Everybody into the boat.
00:07:59.220 We're going to be fine.
00:08:00.160 Everybody into the boat.
00:08:01.160 So when I become optimistic, we're approaching an iceberg.
00:08:05.760 I'm just saying, because I'm wrong on everything.
00:08:09.700 When I'm pessimistic, things are good.
00:08:12.620 When I'm optimistic, everything goes to hell.
00:08:16.520 How does it feel being that guy?
00:08:18.540 I am that guy.
00:08:19.540 Because that means everyone's rooting for you to be sad.
00:08:21.980 Yes.
00:08:22.460 Yes.
00:08:23.380 Yes.
00:08:23.580 It's true.
00:08:24.020 Yes.
00:08:24.420 And I've lived most of my life that way, so I'm happy to do it.
00:08:28.100 I'm actually starting to be freaked out because I'm feeling good.
00:08:31.640 Yeah.
00:08:32.100 But what's your reasoning for feeling good?
00:08:34.280 Is this just a feeling or is there something?
00:08:36.400 No, there's something to it.
00:08:37.920 Look at the economy.
00:08:38.820 Look at what's happening.
00:08:40.160 And I don't even mean that the economy is healthy because the economy is not healthy.
00:08:44.160 Let me just, could I spell it out for you?
00:08:48.220 I don't think I need to.
00:08:49.540 We've got serious, deep problems.
00:08:52.520 However, there are so many optimistic signs that point now to the truth that this works.
00:09:01.100 And it's actually, when Apple, when Apple comes out and says, no, it's the tax cuts.
00:09:08.780 It's the tax cuts.
00:09:10.640 You really, I mean, it's here, I guess it's, if it was just Apple, but Kanye, and I know
00:09:18.320 that everybody says Kanye is crazy.
00:09:20.080 I got it.
00:09:20.540 I got it.
00:09:20.940 I know who Kanye West is.
00:09:22.140 He's the guy who George Bush hates black people.
00:09:24.940 I got it.
00:09:27.180 He is a, a PT Barnum.
00:09:29.840 He will say whatever he has to say.
00:09:32.340 He's, he's, he's just as likely next week to say, you know what?
00:09:37.760 I think Ronald Reagan was the greatest ever.
00:09:41.040 He's just as likely to say that as we never went to the moon.
00:09:45.360 So I know who he is.
00:09:47.220 And I'm not jumping on the Kanye bandwagon with everybody else going, he's one of us.
00:09:51.520 Be careful.
00:09:52.440 Be careful.
00:09:54.220 What is happening is a discussion about freedom of thought.
00:09:59.140 That I haven't seen in a very long time.
00:10:06.420 That is the movement that I have been looking for.
00:10:09.480 I've been wanting somebody who says, you notice what he's saying?
00:10:12.320 Hey, I love you, man.
00:10:13.420 I love you.
00:10:14.660 I love you.
00:10:15.420 That's fine.
00:10:15.980 You can say that.
00:10:16.740 I'm sorry that I hurt your feelings, but I'm just telling you, this is what I think.
00:10:21.120 This is what I feel.
00:10:22.100 And maybe we should think, maybe we should start thinking out of the box.
00:10:24.840 I don't know.
00:10:26.400 That's perfect.
00:10:28.180 And if he makes that cool, not that he makes conservatives cool or anything else.
00:10:34.120 If he makes free thought cool, we win.
00:10:40.100 We win.
00:10:42.140 That's great.
00:10:43.020 So I'm optimistic because I also just got back from California.
00:10:49.320 There's I'm telling you there's something happening in California.
00:10:53.020 I mean, there's lots of things happening.
00:10:54.700 Death, destruction, high taxes, earthquakes, the floods.
00:10:58.880 I mean, there you're all going to die.
00:11:00.620 I just want if you're in California, you're all going to die.
00:11:03.760 Like all the signs of the apocalypse.
00:11:05.220 It's going to happen there first.
00:11:09.520 I mean, I'm sorry.
00:11:10.540 God will destroy you first anyway.
00:11:13.640 But there is also something else happening there.
00:11:16.960 And that is what's happening with Kanye West.
00:11:22.000 It's and there are there are people.
00:11:23.760 I talked to a friend of mine who lives there and he said we were talking about Kanye West.
00:11:28.700 And he said, Glenn, I live.
00:11:31.000 I don't know.
00:11:31.800 Where do the Crips hang out?
00:11:34.820 Long Beach, the LBC.
00:11:36.360 Yeah, the LBC.
00:11:38.300 So anyway, he said, I think he lives down there.
00:11:40.540 He may be a blood, but he's living undercover.
00:11:42.480 And that's a different story.
00:11:43.240 Let's stop talking about it.
00:11:44.780 But he said he said to me the other day, I said, what about this Kanye thing?
00:11:50.140 I think this is, you know, he looked at me and went, he's nuts, you know.
00:11:53.880 And I'm like, no, no, no.
00:11:54.640 I know that.
00:11:55.520 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:55.980 I got that.
00:11:56.580 But he's having a conversation that America hasn't had.
00:12:01.800 And it's happening not in our world.
00:12:04.420 It's happening in the pop culture world that nobody crosses that barrier.
00:12:11.080 And he said, actually, I am starting to hear this from my friends.
00:12:15.800 He said, I've always been the token conservative.
00:12:18.800 He's like, you know, every time something happens, my friends will call.
00:12:22.420 Can I come over and talk to you?
00:12:24.340 And he said, they come over and they're like, so you explain what's going on because I don't
00:12:28.380 understand what's going on.
00:12:30.840 I get that one a lot, too.
00:12:32.240 Yeah.
00:12:32.420 Right.
00:12:32.860 Yeah.
00:12:33.060 OK, so and he said, they don't really want me to explain.
00:12:36.800 They just want to vent on somebody that they know is not going to hit them back.
00:12:41.380 You know what I mean?
00:12:42.420 He said.
00:12:43.260 But for the last six months or so, he said, I'm having different conversations with my
00:12:49.760 friends.
00:12:50.380 He said, my friends are saying, OK, I didn't understand this.
00:12:54.440 And he said, you know, so I went online and I watched, you know, a Prager University on
00:13:01.260 this, which led me to this, which led me to this.
00:13:05.360 So help me out, because I can't make the jump from here to here.
00:13:09.620 And he's like, what the hell is happening here?
00:13:12.940 I think this is a sign.
00:13:14.300 Hang on, I got to get the book of Revelation because I think this is a sign.
00:13:17.440 And he said, and I believe it's true.
00:13:20.340 Dave Rubin said to me, he said he was walking to the studios to do an interview with me just
00:13:25.460 the other day.
00:13:26.600 And he said he was walking down Ventura Boulevard and a guy reached up and put his hand up in
00:13:34.420 the air.
00:13:35.500 And Dave was like, he's going to hit me, slap me.
00:13:38.820 And he was wanting a high five.
00:13:41.220 And he said, I didn't think this guy would be somebody that would be, you know, going,
00:13:46.920 hey, Dave, I sure appreciate what you're doing right now and looking into different
00:13:51.640 options.
00:13:52.920 And he said he put his hand up and gave him a high five and said, free thought, brother,
00:13:57.900 free thought.
00:13:59.900 That's fantastic.
00:14:02.080 That's fantastic.
00:14:03.060 And if it can happen in the cultural world, we should be optimistic.
00:14:08.740 But I don't like it when I'm optimistic.
00:14:11.780 I don't like it.
00:14:12.540 Something's seriously wrong.
00:14:14.500 When I'm optimistic, everything goes wrong.
00:14:18.620 Buy your food storage now.
00:14:22.000 Get gold.
00:14:23.100 Put all of your money in gold or, I don't know, balsa wood, something.
00:14:29.480 But this thing, the wheels are coming off.
00:14:31.380 I want to talk to you a little bit about car shield.
00:14:36.480 You know, you got to take care of your car and it can be really expensive, especially
00:14:39.680 if you if you're, you know, somebody wants to drive it until the doors fall off.
00:14:44.240 You know, I want to drive.
00:14:46.680 I want to drive a car for a very, very long time.
00:14:49.520 And as soon as it goes out, as soon as the warranty stops, that's when the warning light
00:14:53.600 goes on.
00:14:54.120 You know, we used to in the old days, we didn't have warning lights, so we didn't worry.
00:14:58.760 We just broke down on the side of the road.
00:15:01.160 We had all of our worry in one experience, not, oh, geez, the check engine light.
00:15:06.880 What the hell does that mean?
00:15:08.100 And then for weeks until you break down, you're just thinking, oh, something bad's going to
00:15:13.720 happen.
00:15:14.500 Get rid of all of that.
00:15:16.660 Get the extended vehicle protection like I have on from car shield, car shield dot com.
00:15:23.920 I just have I have a truck.
00:15:26.420 This is the I think the 2008.
00:15:28.700 Eight, I think it is.
00:15:30.900 And it's got, you know, a bazillion miles on it.
00:15:33.120 But man, that thing goes, goes, goes.
00:15:35.260 It's, you know, a diesel truck.
00:15:37.040 I want to keep it for the farm.
00:15:38.580 I like using it.
00:15:39.580 I brought it in just for oil.
00:15:42.600 The thing I had five thousand dollar repair bill.
00:15:45.700 And I'm like, what?
00:15:47.100 And then I remembered.
00:15:48.000 Wait a minute.
00:15:49.160 Is that covered with car shield?
00:15:51.400 Sure enough, I paid for nothing but the oil change.

00:16:20.200 Glenn Beck Mercury.
00:16:37.440 Glenn Beck.
00:16:38.660 Welcome to the program.
00:16:39.720 So some say Kanye West is nuts.
00:16:44.420 Yes.
00:16:44.900 In fact, everyone seemed to say it up until like, you know, a week ago.
00:16:48.280 What makes?
00:16:48.720 Well, no, no, no.
00:16:49.560 The left didn't.
00:16:50.560 No, he's a genius to the left.
00:16:52.320 You imagine how bad this what the reviews are going to be like on this this forthcoming
00:16:56.780 CD.
00:16:57.140 Can we guarantee that this is his worst reviewed musical effort of history?
00:17:01.300 Already written.
00:17:02.320 Already written.
00:17:03.060 He's lost it.
00:17:03.860 He's out of touch.
00:17:05.180 He he's he's horrible.
00:17:07.720 The lyrics make no sense.
00:17:08.960 The music makes no sense.
00:17:10.640 He's plagiarized.
00:17:11.820 Whatever it is, they are going to say it about this CD.
00:17:15.280 And I can tell you, too, if this guy has ever as much as looked at a female backstage in
00:17:21.440 the wrong way, you're going to be hearing about it real soon.
00:17:24.160 Real soon.
00:17:24.600 You'll be hearing about that one real soon.
00:17:26.580 Real soon.
00:17:27.020 So Kanye West is he's look, he's nuts.
00:17:31.980 Kanye and we everyone used to at least have an element of understanding about that.
00:17:37.400 And we should that's why we should be a little bit cautious here.
00:17:40.120 I mean, even he's the type of person where it's like part of his genius is that he's nuts.
00:17:45.540 Right.
00:17:46.020 And again, I don't consider him a genius.
00:17:48.000 I should be clear.
00:17:48.600 But I'm saying his people who believe he's a genius think because he's willing to put
00:17:53.520 himself through torture to come out on the other side as an artist.
00:17:56.860 Right.
00:17:57.360 That's been his shtick.
00:17:58.720 And most of his controversies over the year have been mostly related to him believing he's
00:18:04.860 greater than everyone else does.
00:18:07.420 He does.
00:18:07.980 And this is hard to say at this point in human history, but he may have the biggest
00:18:13.500 ego I've ever seen.
00:18:14.780 Right.
00:18:15.080 And you know, honestly, the person you can compare him to is pre-presidency Donald Trump.
00:18:19.900 Right.
00:18:20.060 Like think of Donald Trump, not as the president of the United States, but the guy when he's
00:18:22.800 just a celebrity.
00:18:23.700 Yeah.
00:18:23.920 And he's out there talking about himself all the time and saying how he's the greatest
00:18:26.700 and everything else.
00:18:27.800 That is very similar to Kanye.
00:18:29.860 I mean, they have almost an identical media profile from two different worlds.
00:18:33.940 Yes.
00:18:34.120 Right.
00:18:34.580 Again, this is talking about back in the day.
00:18:36.760 So, but if you look at Kanye, I mean, you know, he's always done a lot of that stuff.
00:18:41.280 He obviously ruined a really important moment for Taylor Swift.
00:18:44.860 Famously, George Bush doesn't believe, you know, doesn't like black people.
00:18:49.060 You know, he posed as Jesus Christ with a crown of thorns on his head on the cover of
00:18:54.800 Rolling Stone.
00:18:56.100 All stuff that makes him a genius to the left, to the left stuff that makes him a genius.
00:19:00.180 And one interesting thing, and this is one of the reasons you may not want to sell yourself
00:19:05.120 completely into his philosophy.
00:19:06.580 Obviously, you know, I'm not.
00:19:08.180 Totally.
00:19:08.600 No, you're not.
00:19:09.040 Okay.
00:19:09.240 I think a lot of people are excited about Kanye talking about this.
00:19:12.080 No, be excited that he's bringing free thought, the idea of free thought into the culture
00:19:16.580 and leave it there.
00:19:18.340 Right.
00:19:18.680 And free thought goes both ways, right?
00:19:21.040 Sometimes he's going to put Thomas Sowell up there, which is great.
00:19:24.040 Sometimes he's going to say Emma Gonzalez is his hero and you might not agree with it.
00:19:27.920 However, you probably really won't agree with his commentary on AIDS.
00:19:37.060 You know, a lot of people don't have commentary on AIDS.
00:19:42.340 You know, but some people do.
00:19:43.520 Okay.
00:19:44.120 All right.
00:19:44.220 And you've heard this one before.
00:19:45.340 You've heard this hit before.
00:19:46.280 I have.
00:19:46.780 Oh, we're all going to be very familiar with this.
00:19:48.640 And remember how you reacted last time you heard it.
00:19:50.980 Okay.
00:19:51.660 AIDS is a man-made disease that was placed in Africa, just like crack was placed in the
00:19:56.780 black community to break up the Black Panthers.
00:20:00.300 Okay.
00:20:00.800 So we really need to remember who Kanye is.
00:20:04.700 Yeah.
00:20:05.000 The fool.
00:20:05.440 He's Jeremiah Wright.
00:20:06.220 That's where the last time you heard that.
00:20:07.580 Yeah.
00:20:07.920 It's Jeremiah Wright.
00:20:08.920 That is, it's the exact philosophy of Jeremiah Wright.
00:20:12.360 Yeah.
00:20:12.520 I like it when he talks about Thomas Sowell and says to people who have never heard of Thomas
00:20:17.460 Sowell, check this black man out.
00:20:19.860 And that's great.
00:20:20.340 That's great stuff.
00:20:21.560 Great stuff.
00:20:22.460 Free your mind.
00:20:23.860 Don't follow anyone.
00:20:29.960 Glenn Beck.

00:21:22.720 because I talk about ears too much.
00:21:24.460 Ears are weird.
00:21:25.220 They're these things on the side of your head.
00:21:26.740 I don't like them, but I do want them clean.
00:21:29.840 Usewaxrx.com.
00:21:33.060 Usewaxrx.com.
00:21:46.680 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:21:48.780 So I, as I stated a few minutes ago, I'm becoming very optimistic and that's odd for me and quite
00:21:54.940 honestly disturbing to people like Stu and, and maybe it's just, is it just because you're
00:22:01.660 so used to me being pessimistic or catastrophist?
00:22:05.180 Uh, no, I mean, just the patterns of time, right?
00:22:08.100 You notice them.
00:22:09.180 And usually like when things are going great, you're like, we are all going to die.
00:22:15.460 And it's like, oh, good.
00:22:16.820 Thanks for coming to my birthday party, Glenn.
00:22:19.080 And then the other thing is like when people are like, ah, you know what?
00:22:23.420 Look, I think we've turned the corner here.
00:22:24.520 Things are going well.
00:22:25.960 It's usually death.
00:22:28.000 And then for when people are like, oh God, we are really screwed.
00:22:30.540 This is going nowhere.
00:22:31.460 Then you're like, oh, well, you know what?
00:22:33.800 I gotta be optimistic, you know, because after the fallout leaves, there's going to be wonderful
00:22:37.800 flowers all around.
00:22:39.400 Right.
00:22:39.660 Oh, great.
00:22:40.260 But that's always true.
00:22:41.860 It's always true.
00:22:42.620 Yes, we're all in a concentration camp now, but the state of Israel is going to be restored.
00:22:48.100 Yeah.
00:22:48.580 Okay.
00:22:49.120 Yeah.
00:22:49.360 That's not good.
00:22:50.040 So, um, Stu and I have been talking about this since 2008.
00:22:54.580 That, uh, yeah, when I get optimistic, um, this next time could be bad.
00:23:03.640 And, and so we've been kind of looking for that.
00:23:06.880 And the good news is I haven't had any optimism for quite some time.
00:23:10.000 Yeah.
00:23:10.600 No optimism.
00:23:11.920 However, I'm becoming very optimistic.
00:23:13.600 So what I did last night is I decided to look into the pole shift because I mean, I can't
00:23:21.520 get my arms around, uh, global warming, uh, and that we can do anything about it.
00:23:26.540 Uh, but I, I can get around a pole shift.
00:23:30.820 And have you heard about the pole shift?
00:23:33.100 Not, not, not as much as you think.
00:23:35.300 Okay.
00:23:35.880 You know, cause if it is a pole shift coming, I probably should have heard a lot.
00:23:39.160 Do you know what pole shifts are?
00:23:40.000 Magnetic pole shift is?
00:23:41.020 Only very basics.
00:23:42.680 Okay.
00:23:43.100 That we've, you know, turning on its axis, right?
00:23:45.860 That's the, the flipping upside down almost, right?
00:23:48.880 Yeah.
00:23:49.020 Well, there's two things.
00:23:49.860 There's the, there's the, the, the mantle shift.
00:23:53.340 Okay.
00:23:53.860 And then there's a, an elect, uh, electromagnetic pole shift.
00:23:57.220 So the, the electromagnetic field that is around the, the world that keeps us protected
00:24:02.520 from, you know, radiation.
00:24:04.240 So we're not all like walking outside and like all of a sudden we're John McCain.
00:24:07.800 No, all of that field, um, helps us get rid of a lot of the radiation and, and everything
00:24:17.980 else.
00:24:18.280 So we don't all die from cancer immediately.
00:24:20.060 Um, uh, that always moves.
00:24:24.500 I mean, the, the, the North pole, the magnetic North pole, I think has been as low as Ohio
00:24:31.260 at one point.
00:24:33.080 And I mean, you know, long time ago, but we have a pole shift about every 200 to 300,000
00:24:40.400 years.
00:24:41.200 And that would mean all it would really mean to you.
00:24:43.940 If we were living without any technology or anything else, all it would mean is you'd
00:24:47.760 look at your compass and you'd go, what the hell is that?
00:24:51.180 No, North is that way.
00:24:52.960 And all the birds would be flying into trees and every, everything would be screwed up.
00:24:57.920 Anything that is, is, has any kind of sense of North and South would all be screwed up.
00:25:04.500 So we, in a few days would realize, oh, wow, something has happened.
00:25:08.460 And now my compass is pointing to Antarctica instead of Arctic.
00:25:17.020 So it would be confusing for, you know, we'd have to take our globes apart and, and just
00:25:21.900 say, no, this is the top now.
00:25:23.680 Okay.
00:25:24.160 Even though there is no top in space.
00:25:26.360 Um, so we're not living like the Neanderthals though.
00:25:30.260 And a pole shift, if it happens slowly, we are due.
00:25:34.900 In fact, scientists are saying now it can happen at any time, but you got to remember
00:25:38.380 any time is like, could be a hundred thousand years from now, could be today.
00:25:43.520 And they're seeing a real strong destabilization of the field now.
00:25:47.920 And we're way overdue for this.
00:25:49.880 If it happens slowly, no problem.
00:25:53.040 If it happens over the next hundred years, not a problem.
00:25:56.020 Um, if it happens tomorrow, we won't be, this will be our last broadcast.
00:26:02.760 Okay.
00:26:03.300 And not because we're all going to die, but because all of the satellites, everything is
00:26:08.700 geared to a strong electromagnetic field, which we are losing now.
00:26:13.660 And scientists are working on, okay, what does that mean for all of our communication
00:26:17.060 satellites and everything else?
00:26:19.020 Um, if it moves quickly, it will destroy.
00:26:21.440 It's like a giant EMP global and it will destroy all of, uh, electronics and communication and
00:26:29.300 satellites and everything else.
00:26:30.640 So it'd be very, very bad, but there's also something happening.
00:26:34.400 And they're saying that these are disconnected, but did you know that, have you ever heard
00:26:39.280 of the mantle pole shift?
00:26:40.740 This is something that's also known to happen and we're long overdue for it, apparently,
00:26:46.540 and they are not connected.
00:26:49.000 Uh, but the mantle, you know how the core of the earth and, and remember I'm a doctor.
00:26:54.680 Okay.
00:26:55.100 So don't please.
00:26:56.540 So, so if you happen to know more about this, if I get too, if I have a word of criticism,
00:26:59.860 yes, if I get too technical, Oh, it's that just keep it to yourself.
00:27:03.040 Okay.
00:27:03.640 So the, the mantle, uh, the, or the, um, uh, the core of the earth is a hundred percent
00:27:11.320 marshmallow fluff and just outside of this core, but it's at extreme temperatures because
00:27:17.240 of the gravitational pull.
00:27:18.720 And so it's, it's really liquefied marshmallow fluff.
00:27:21.920 And just on the outside of that is liquid metal.
00:27:25.520 Okay.
00:27:26.480 And the, the, the, what the metals on the outside of the fluff is your, is your, do I
00:27:32.940 talk to you about when you put chocolate in your peanut butter?
00:27:35.580 Okay.
00:27:35.980 Don't talk to me about my metal and my marshmallow fluff.
00:27:38.100 Got it.
00:27:38.540 I'm a doctor, man.
00:27:39.560 So, so we're really kind of like the, the world is kind of ice skating on this liquid
00:27:46.160 metal.
00:27:46.620 All right.
00:27:47.600 If you, if you had a very long time to look and you were watching us from space, you would
00:27:54.000 see that the globe spins on its axis.
00:27:57.520 However, the continents spin slightly differently because they're moving.
00:28:03.720 It's the viscosity of that metal.
00:28:06.520 We're actually sliding and we slide about the same speed that your fingernails grow.
00:28:13.000 Now in a, you know, in your short lifetime, that's no big deal.
00:28:19.160 You just, you know, you're, you're Howard Hughes and you've got really long fingernails
00:28:22.500 or you're in the Guinness book of world records.
00:28:24.400 That's not a long way for a continent to slide.
00:28:26.980 You know, I mean, if you straighten them out, it can't be the curly kind of fingernails.
00:28:30.500 They have to be grow perfectly straight.
00:28:32.320 That's not a big deal to slide.
00:28:33.980 If you're, you know, if you're the United States of America, we slide a little bit.
00:28:36.760 Oh, well.
00:28:37.760 However, over a long period of time, that's dramatic.
00:28:41.840 There's a larger point you can make.
00:28:44.220 Hmm.
00:28:44.580 If you're in the United States, we slide a little bit, no big deal.
00:28:47.520 But over a long period of time, you might not recognize where you are.
00:28:50.740 Yes.
00:28:50.900 You might not notice the slide.
00:28:52.220 There might be a larger lesson to learn there.
00:28:53.980 So we kind of figured this out when we went down and we were exploring down in Antarctica
00:28:57.460 and they found fossilized tropical plants.
00:29:03.800 They're like, how the hell did, what?
00:29:07.460 And they believe there's a theory, probably wrong, but there is a theory that that was the legendary lost city of Atlantis.
00:29:16.280 And a pole shift happened, and that was more towards the equator, and the continents slid, and now Atlantis is, you know, Antarctica.
00:29:28.200 Again, speculation probably wrong, but we do know that the continents have shifted and they have all moved into the positions that they're in.
00:29:37.840 So if we have a magnetic pole shift, it means an end of communications, and it will also mean we have, if it's rapid,
00:29:49.540 and we'll also have a hard time growing food, et cetera, et cetera, it'll be really bad.
00:29:53.780 You want to talk about global warming?
00:29:55.460 This is global warming on steroids.
00:29:57.140 If you have both of them coincide, you have basically the scientific explanation for the book of Revelation.
00:30:09.000 You're standing on firm ground at night, and we know when we read the book of Revelation, it says,
00:30:15.900 and the stars will fall, and the earth and the water and the land will be poisoned.
00:30:21.740 Okay?
00:30:22.480 Well, how do you make the stars fall?
00:30:24.060 We know the stars aren't going to fall, but if you're standing on the earth, and all of a sudden you have a continental shift,
00:30:30.740 it will appear to you as the stars falling.
00:30:34.860 If that shift happens with the magnetic pole, that could poison all of the water and the land and just be apocalyptic in its nature.
00:30:45.900 I don't believe that this is going to, it could happen in our lifetime, if your lifetime is 100,000 years.
00:30:52.140 Scientists are now saying it could happen at any time, and they are noticing a thinning and a destabilization of the electromagnetic field.
00:31:01.100 And the poles are shifting, but we don't know what's going to happen.
00:31:05.080 It's just interesting, especially if you're looking for something that says, no, don't be optimistic, Glenn.
00:31:11.680 Don't.
00:31:12.440 There's lots of things you can worry about.
00:31:14.280 So, I spent my time last night trying to find something else to worry about.
00:31:18.000 You just hit too many moments of positivity.
00:31:21.100 Yeah.
00:31:21.400 I got up yesterday, and I'm like, I don't know.
00:31:23.920 I'm starting to feel good.
00:31:24.880 Is there anything out there that could cause a catastrophe?
00:31:28.360 Yes, there is right here.
00:31:29.520 I found it.
00:31:30.460 I found it.
00:31:31.180 That's the way you operate.
00:31:32.380 It's the way I operate.
00:31:33.360 Although, I will say, the evidence, you know, if Kanye West is a conservative hero, the poles may be shifting.
00:31:39.700 I think that's absolutely true.
00:31:44.340 The poles are shifting.
00:31:49.640 By the way, I have some other news for you.
00:31:52.280 I don't know if you've noticed that the Federal Reserve has shifted tons and tons and tons of reserve gold back over to Europe and all around the world.
00:32:07.000 The countries are all calling their gold back from the Federal Reserve, which, just remember this word, rehypothecation.
00:32:15.460 When that happens, trouble.
00:32:17.640 You ever read the word rehypothecation?
00:32:20.020 Don't even know what it is.
00:32:20.880 You don't even know what it is.
00:32:22.860 That's fine.
00:32:23.520 Look it up.
00:32:24.060 You can learn about it.
00:32:25.060 Really important.
00:32:26.100 When you hear that word used by somebody other than me that is credible, and they're like, well, what we're really dealing with here is rehypothecation.
00:32:34.860 Run.
00:32:35.160 Run for your life.
00:32:37.000 OK, anyway, they're pulling all the gold and everything else.
00:32:40.940 Have you noticed?
00:32:42.540 Have you noticed that you have lost a lot of money in your savings account just because the dollar is depreciating?
00:32:51.480 A lot of people are talking about a bit of Bitcoin.
00:32:53.880 That's crazy.
00:32:54.980 It might be crazy.
00:32:56.240 It might be crazy.
00:32:57.140 It's also crazy not to have like a hundred bucks in this market, but it's so hard to understand.
00:33:05.000 First, just understanding what Bitcoin is.
00:33:07.840 It's damn near impossible.
00:33:09.200 And then trying to buy it or sell it.
00:33:12.380 I have no idea.
00:33:14.580 I mean, it is.
00:33:15.540 It's beyond my 13 year old son.
00:33:17.060 I'll tell you that right now.
00:33:18.600 I look at him all the time and I'm like, can you fix the TV?
00:33:21.920 Yes, he can.
00:33:22.920 Can you?
00:33:23.300 OK, I just want to go online.
00:33:24.800 He can do that.
00:33:25.480 I just want to buy some Bitcoin or I'm looking at this coin.
00:33:29.920 Can I buy that?
00:33:32.000 I don't.
00:33:32.340 It's beyond me.
00:33:33.720 So it is complex.
00:33:35.500 So we when we looked for somebody that could teach this on what it is, how to invest, what to possibly invest in.
00:33:43.640 So it's a crypto course.
00:33:45.240 And I urge you to go and take this course.
00:33:49.260 Now you go to smart crypto course dot com.
00:33:52.460 That's smart crypto course dot com.
00:33:55.780 You watch this course.
00:33:57.380 And if you want to invest, you can invest, you know, just do your own homework.
00:34:01.500 This is what this is.
00:34:02.680 I really felt that you I did.
00:34:05.700 I needed an education on what it was, how it worked and how to invest and how to sell.
00:34:12.700 They make it really easier to buy than they do to sell.
00:34:16.340 Isn't that strange?
00:34:17.280 Anyway, smart crypto course dot com.
00:34:20.160 Go there now.

00:34:23.120 Glenn Beck, Mercury.
00:34:39.380 Glenn Beck.
00:34:40.500 Hey, would you just take a second and say a prayer for a good friend, Pat Gray?
00:34:47.120 Pat was was in the hospital a couple of weeks ago and his kidneys shut down.
00:34:53.980 He went into kidney failure.
00:34:55.220 They thought he had kidney stones.
00:34:56.480 He didn't.
00:34:58.360 He had a scarring in his kidneys and they had to put stints in the in the kidneys.
00:35:06.880 So, you know, they could get him to start functioning again.
00:35:10.220 I don't know something with the fallopian tubes in the ovaries.
00:35:13.040 But I'm a doctor, man.
00:35:16.240 That's true.
00:35:16.780 You are a doctor.
00:35:17.440 Thank you.
00:35:17.880 I can't deny that.
00:35:18.620 I'm a doctor of humanities, which means I can talk about anything with the human condition
00:35:22.180 and diagnose anything, even without examining the patient.
00:35:26.300 Oh, yeah.
00:35:26.760 Yeah.
00:35:27.240 Doctor of humanities.
00:35:28.720 That's all of it.
00:35:29.760 It's not really what that is, but I think it is.
00:35:31.620 And we're not going to ask any more questions anyway.
00:35:35.600 So he's going under the knife again today.
00:35:38.060 He's going into surgery.
00:35:39.280 He may even be in surgery now.
00:35:40.840 So if you wouldn't mind just saying a prayer for him, we sure would appreciate it.
00:35:44.320 He has two surgeries coming up the next week.
00:35:46.360 So it's been a rough, rough stretch for Pat.
00:35:49.800 And this is, you know what, if none of it is to make him look better, which is kind
00:35:52.860 of sad.
00:35:53.240 I disagree.
00:35:54.040 He's lost, what, 35 pounds?
00:35:56.280 Yeah.
00:35:56.880 And as, you know, as he would tell you, that's the positive side effect of all this.
00:36:02.380 Oh, no.
00:36:03.000 I'm telling you, really, honestly, pain, surgery, you got it.
00:36:07.700 If I can lose 35 pounds, you know, in a couple of weeks, I'm there.
00:36:11.280 But here's my, because as you know, I'm not a doctor, but I want to be one someday.
00:36:15.060 So here's my diagnosis.
00:36:16.220 Let me run it by the actual doctor.
00:36:18.020 Yes.
00:36:18.200 Pat lost 35 pounds.
00:36:21.760 However, he lost 30 of it before he was sick.
00:36:27.080 Therefore, no, my point is, him getting healthier was the reason he's having these health problems.
00:36:35.800 And he should.
00:36:36.660 Liking where you're going.
00:36:37.500 We should go to Taco Bell more often.
00:36:39.860 I am liking where this is headed.
00:36:42.100 Because Taco Bell nacho cheese sauce is basically antibiotics.
00:36:45.680 You know what it is?
00:36:46.460 It's the nacho cheese, I think, that kept those fallopian tubes, you know, well greased.
00:36:52.640 Yeah, sure.
00:36:53.420 Whatever.
00:36:54.260 I'm a doctor, man.
00:36:54.980 I don't know why you're so focused on fallopian tubes.
00:36:56.720 You're the only tubes I know that you have inside of you.
00:36:59.240 Do you have any other tubes?
00:37:00.540 There's probably one or two in there.
00:37:01.880 Yeah.
00:37:02.120 I don't know.
00:37:02.420 I don't think so.
00:37:03.080 I mean, you have the intestines.
00:37:04.240 That's tube-like, but not really.
00:37:06.340 It's too gross down there.
00:37:07.700 At what point do you say, I want to go into that as a doctor?
00:37:13.120 Okay.
00:37:13.340 Now, I went into all of humanity.
00:37:15.720 Okay.
00:37:16.220 That was my specialty.
00:37:17.360 That's not what you did.
00:37:17.800 And I didn't have to study much for it, which was great.
00:37:20.700 Just became a doctor.
00:37:21.460 They just called me and said, hey, we want to make you a doctor.
00:37:23.340 And I said, again.
00:37:24.980 So anyway, but at what point are you narrowing things down and you say, I want to study people's
00:37:32.960 butts.
00:37:34.040 I want to crawl up in there where it's really gooey and icky and stinky.
00:37:37.500 And I really want to, that's where, that's where I want to dedicate my life.
00:37:43.220 As a doctor, I'm like, nope.
00:37:47.040 No, I don't want to look there.
00:37:48.780 You got something going on.
00:37:49.780 Look, Mrs. Johansson, you may have cancer, but it's in the nether regions and I'm not going
00:37:56.160 to look.
00:37:56.940 Well, just like being Cleveland Browns quarterback, somebody's got to do it, you know?
00:38:00.640 And I think that might be, but that's not the way they act.
00:38:03.700 It's not like you go to one of those doctors and they're like, I'm the guy.
00:38:08.240 They're all, you know, haughty about it.
00:38:10.840 Like, I'm one of the best butt doctors in the area.
00:38:13.860 Well, you probably want one that's good, I would assume, right?
00:38:17.480 You do, but I mean, did you hear what you just said?
00:38:20.540 I'm one of the best butt doctors.
00:38:21.920 They don't say that.
00:38:23.040 You're saying that.
00:38:23.780 Yeah, they do.
00:38:24.220 They have that air to them.
00:38:26.420 And that's a whole nother.
00:38:27.340 Did you wash your hands with that?
00:38:29.040 Please.
00:38:30.700 I just don't think I'm even shaking hands with the butt doctors.
00:38:33.680 But anyway, Pat is in surgery and...
00:38:39.400 What a nice tribute to him.
00:38:41.100 Forgive us for that, Lord.
00:38:42.840 But pray for him.
00:38:43.940 Keep him in your prayers the next week or so, please.
00:38:46.880 Glenn Beck.
00:38:48.880 Mercury.
00:38:58.240 Love.
00:39:00.160 Courage.
00:39:01.920 Truth.
00:39:03.480 Glenn Beck.
00:39:04.400 Glenn Beck.
00:39:05.260 So, do you remember when, oh, I don't even know how many years ago, when the world was
00:39:10.520 very, very young, sometime in the 90s, when Bart Simpson said, eat my shorts!
00:39:18.420 And people went crazy and said, oh my gosh, eat my shorts.
00:39:22.320 You can't have a young gentleman on television saying, eat my shorts.
00:39:26.240 Showing disrespect to his father.
00:39:27.760 And then his father, why, you little...
00:39:29.800 And that's just going to coarsen our society.
00:39:33.320 And remember, we were told by Hollywood to shut up.
00:39:39.220 Well, I would just like to say, I don't think it's Simpsons related, but have you noticed
00:39:42.740 the coarseness of society?
00:39:46.080 Hmm.
00:39:47.300 Eat my shorts is really not a big deal now.
00:39:50.340 I mean, that is, that is like if Ronald Reagan came back and ran in the next, and his big
00:39:57.620 put down was, eat my shorts, it would be like, my gosh, he is like George Washington.
00:40:02.680 He's so presidential.
00:40:03.480 So, for everybody in Hollywood who said, shut up, let me just give you a story here that
00:40:13.040 maybe the rest of America might have something to say back to you.
00:40:17.900 We should take note from Matt Groening.
00:40:21.760 He's the creator of The Simpsons.
00:40:24.360 He was in an interview with USA Today, and he's responded now to the recent backlash surrounding
00:40:29.740 Apu.
00:40:30.260 Apu, so you know, Apu is a cartoon character.
00:40:35.380 Just want to throw that in.
00:40:37.340 He, he's the Indian character whom social justice types claim perpetuates an evil stereotype.
00:40:44.900 In the interview, he said of the accusations, I'm proud what we do on the show.
00:40:49.420 And I think it's time in our culture where people, it's just a time in our culture where
00:40:53.340 people love to pretend that they're offended.
00:40:57.820 Amen.
00:40:58.300 We are outraged by outrage.
00:41:03.480 Not so much.
00:41:04.800 Not so much.
00:41:06.080 The best approach is to shrug off the outrage and let all of those people who are like,
00:41:11.520 why you little, just stew in their anger and their self-importance like spoiled children
00:41:17.040 who throw a tantrum when they don't get ice cream for dinner.
00:41:20.500 And when dad says no, they're like, why, why eat my shorts?
00:41:25.920 Okay.
00:41:27.360 Because it's their problem.
00:41:28.720 It's not my problem.
00:41:29.560 You have a problem with Apu?
00:41:31.680 Okay.
00:41:32.120 You should deal with that.
00:41:33.620 Because it's a cartoon.
00:41:35.140 I think they're the ones who are disturbed.
00:41:40.440 Starbucks botched it by giving in.
00:41:42.940 Universities throughout the country have done the same.
00:41:44.720 They led the way.
00:41:45.480 But it never works.
00:41:46.440 Nothing's ever good enough.
00:41:48.140 Apu has been the mainstay on the show for decades.
00:41:50.820 His identity has only become a problem after a documentary filmmaker, whose name I'm not
00:41:55.780 going to try to pronounce because I believe that that would be cultural appropriation,
00:42:00.000 made an entire film accusing the show of racial stereotyping.
00:42:05.300 As to be expected, the social justice warrior types, who have been most offended, know very
00:42:10.900 little about The Simpsons.
00:42:12.540 Otherwise, they would see the cultural richness that the character Apu has given over the years.
00:42:18.040 Wouldn't you say, Stu, as you watch it from your armchair and you study it, it's cultural
00:42:22.900 richness.
00:42:23.700 It certainly is.
00:42:24.940 Yes.
00:42:25.960 He's struggled with a few issues.
00:42:27.560 I feel bad for Apu.
00:42:29.160 He's by far one of the most nuanced characters on the show.
00:42:32.380 And that's saying something for a cartoon character.
00:42:37.600 But that's not good enough for social justice warriors.
00:42:41.140 They're arguing that it's a cultural appropriation to use a white actor to voice Apu.
00:42:47.200 Now, this is Hank Azaria, one of the most impressive voice actors of our time.
00:42:52.460 You know, it's like saying, Mel Blanc.
00:42:54.220 How dare him do a Tasmanian devil?
00:42:57.800 He's not from Tasmania.
00:42:59.960 That's cultural appropriation.
00:43:01.620 It is.
00:43:03.200 Once an Indian actor would replace Azaria, they would argue that Apu character needs a name
00:43:09.580 change because Apu, please.
00:43:12.440 And maybe a different backstory and a new job.
00:43:15.100 Notice that all these notions themselves are premised on stereotypes.
00:43:22.040 Once again, the progressives are signaling virtue for the community rather than their
00:43:25.540 own.
00:43:26.420 It's funny that they don't have a problem with the character Cletus, who is based on
00:43:30.600 the stereotype of a white, poor redneck with a litter of toothless children, most of
00:43:35.180 whom run around the trailer park with shotguns.
00:43:37.100 Anybody have a problem with Cletus?
00:43:39.720 No, because I think it's funny.
00:43:42.640 Why?
00:43:43.340 Because it's a cartoon.
00:43:46.960 How about the Scottish stereotype used with groundskeeper Willie or the stereotypes of the
00:43:53.840 police?
00:43:54.400 You know, the oversized donut eating chief Wiggum or politicians like the corrupt womanizing
00:44:00.420 Mayor Quimby ever noticed that.
00:44:04.440 Are you saying all corrupt politicians sound like the Kennedys?
00:44:09.740 The fat Tony character.
00:44:12.680 Oh, my gosh.
00:44:13.640 The stereotypes about organized crime.
00:44:16.380 Grandma Simpson or Grandpa Simpson is an ageist.
00:44:20.240 Marge Simpson status as a housewife perpetuates outdated general roles.
00:44:25.040 How dare them?
00:44:26.920 And where are the transgendered characters?
00:44:28.540 Better yet, where are all the vegan, atheist, Latino, pixie, kin, non-gender, binary, Costa
00:44:33.860 Rican pansexuals who teach feminism as they make your coffee?
00:44:39.420 Where are all those characters?
00:44:41.960 By the way, anybody notice that the only real progressive and non-funny one on the show
00:44:46.680 is Lisa?
00:44:48.520 So wait, the progressive is the smart one.
00:44:53.020 That's not funny.
00:44:55.040 I can't wait to watch the Simpsons when it's just Lisa lecturing us on how we have to live.
00:45:01.880 I'll get rid of all those other nonsensical characters.
00:45:05.520 Let's just have Lisa.
00:45:08.640 If she was just black.
00:45:11.640 The message is clear.
00:45:13.800 Buckling to demands and outrage only increase the demands and intensifies the outrage.
00:45:18.400 What we've learned is that social justice warriors never get enough.
00:45:22.320 And Matt Groening did the right thing by not bowing to their bullying.
00:45:26.340 If they got in their way with Apu, they would have gutted every cartoon they could ever get
00:45:30.680 their their hands on.
00:45:32.340 You notice.
00:45:33.240 Oh, my gosh.
00:45:35.240 Guns.
00:45:35.680 We've got to we've got to stop all smoking and guns in movies.
00:45:40.660 I mean, unless it's, you know, making us lots of money, then we'll keep those guns in the
00:45:46.680 movie and we'll glorify them.
00:45:47.940 But have you noticed all of the kids that are dropping safes on little bunny rabbits?
00:45:52.960 No, I really haven't.
00:45:56.400 They've largely succeeded in condemning certain books.
00:45:59.560 I mean, when's the next book burning left and condemning movies and they're doing it
00:46:06.080 now to Kanye West.
00:46:07.860 He's hard to stick up for, but doesn't he have a right to his opinion?
00:46:13.440 By the way, burning books, banning movies, destroying people, that kind of sounds familiar
00:46:18.780 historically speaking, doesn't it?
00:46:22.960 It's Wednesday, May 2nd.
00:46:32.960 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:46:36.180 Well, here we are again.
00:46:39.580 The Boy Scouts have just announced check on this.
00:46:43.420 This cannot be.
00:46:44.020 I'm reading it from Boy Scouts are now changing their name to Scouts.
00:46:51.220 Because the Boy Scouts have now let girls into the Boy Scouts.
00:46:56.780 So it's sexist to say that they're Boy Scouts.
00:47:02.540 It's, you know, the gender roles.
00:47:04.820 Please stop.
00:47:06.560 Get your kid out of the Scouts.
00:47:10.760 Well, just Scouts colon BSA is what their new name is.
00:47:18.900 Well, I think the BS still works.
00:47:22.220 It's true.
00:47:23.080 The B doesn't, apparently.
00:47:24.980 No, but the BS together in Scouts works better than it ever has, I think.
00:47:31.280 It's like when Kentucky Fried Chicken wanted to deny, essentially, that they're making fried
00:47:35.360 chicken, and they're just like, no, we're just KFC now.
00:47:37.680 Those letters don't mean anything.
00:47:39.300 Yeah.
00:47:39.860 No, I think these, I think BSA makes even more sense than it did.
00:47:44.880 Congratulations, Boy Scouts.
00:47:46.700 You're officially over.
00:47:48.240 The BS of America is.
00:47:50.100 It is.
00:47:50.880 It is.
00:47:52.260 You know, I've been a little optimistic today.
00:47:54.360 That's kind of draining out of me.
00:47:56.880 But.
00:47:57.940 Oh, I got some good stuff.
00:47:59.060 That didn't get you excited.
00:47:59.800 Yeah, what?
00:48:00.240 An Israeli airstrike on the Western Syrian city of Hamas, which is like Hamas without the S.
00:48:05.500 On Sunday, killed two dozen Iranian soldiers and targeted arms recently delivered from
00:48:10.360 Iran, said three U.S. officials.
00:48:12.320 And this is the latest sign that Israel and Iran are moving closer to open warfare.
00:48:17.220 Quote, on the list of potentials for most likely live hostility around the world, the
00:48:22.420 battle between Israel and Iran and Syria is at the top of the list right now.
00:48:26.740 I'm kind of okay with that, as long as we stay out of it.
00:48:28.520 I'm kind of okay with that.
00:48:30.460 I'm okay.
00:48:30.900 I think Israel will do well.
00:48:31.880 Yeah, Israel will do well.
00:48:33.020 Let them take care of this.
00:48:33.740 I don't think that a highly inflamed Middle East isn't necessarily in our interest.
00:48:38.280 It's not optimal.
00:48:39.280 No.
00:48:39.580 It's not optimal.
00:48:40.800 You'd call it suboptimal.
00:48:42.240 Okay.
00:48:42.500 Yeah.
00:48:42.960 But who am I to judge?
00:48:44.220 I want to tell you that we have been airing a show, and it's available now on demand right
00:48:51.540 now.
00:48:51.860 It's called Faith Keepers at TheBlaze.com slash TV, and it was done by The Clarion Project.
00:48:57.900 And the founder and the CEO is Rabbi Shore, and he is on with us.
00:49:02.520 He's on with us now.
00:49:03.260 Rabbi, are you there?
00:49:04.560 I'm here, Glenn.
00:49:05.560 Nice to be on your show.
00:49:06.600 How are you doing?
00:49:07.180 Very, very good.
00:49:08.060 I have to tell you, you guys are responsible for some of the best stuff and the bravest stuff
00:49:16.180 I think I've seen on radicalized Islam and the Middle East.
00:49:21.000 You are the ones that were responsible for Obsession, which we based a documentary special
00:49:27.140 on CNN years and years ago.
00:49:29.800 We based it on Obsession, and you were the first to really take the leap and tell that
00:49:36.860 story in a compelling way for Americans to hear it.
00:49:39.820 And now, with Faith Keepers, here you are, a rabbi, and you are holding up the Christians
00:49:48.000 and saying, here, look, genocide's happening.
00:49:53.200 Yes, indeed.
00:49:54.900 Why is it falling to a rabbi to lead this?
00:50:00.660 Well, I think it's actually perhaps a sensitivity that's now pretty solidly embedded in our genetics.
00:50:07.320 We have a sensitivity to suffering.
00:50:10.340 The Jewish people have suffered their own genocide just less than 100 years ago.
00:50:15.720 And we also, in addition to the genocide, almost a million Jews were kicked out of the Middle East
00:50:21.420 at the hands of the majority Muslim countries.
00:50:24.460 And now we're seeing it happen to the Christians in the Middle East.
00:50:27.680 And I guess because we've experienced it, we're sensitive to it.
00:50:30.900 And I see what's happening, and I view it not just as a threat to those minority groups in the Middle East,
00:50:37.820 but it's a threat to Americans, because this is a movement of radical Islam that is global.
00:50:44.460 And so I feel that it's necessary to alert Christians, as well as every good American,
00:50:50.140 to this big threat facing the world.
00:50:53.620 As we are seeing this movement spread, it is incredible to me that, you know,
00:51:01.480 people have a hard time, you know, understanding the enemy when the enemy seems to them to be crazy.
00:51:09.260 It's why people didn't stand up right away when they heard about the Holocaust,
00:51:12.700 even some of the German people, because some of the German people even said,
00:51:16.900 well, they would never do that.
00:51:18.520 They would never do that.
00:51:19.540 And but that was generally the world.
00:51:22.880 When you have an enemy like radicalized Islam in particular here with ISIS and Iran,
00:51:31.440 their ideology is that, you know, the imam of time is coming and going to wash the world in blood.
00:51:39.520 Nobody is getting their arms around this.
00:51:42.000 They just think that, oh, they're just really bad guys.
00:51:44.860 Don't we need to look a little deeper?
00:51:46.440 Yes, indeed.
00:51:50.080 And what's astonishing is that people do tend to think that this threat is just about a few crazy terrorists
00:51:56.400 in various places in the world.
00:51:58.340 But the fact is that there is approaching one and a half billion Muslims.
00:52:02.860 Now, even if the great majority are are moderate, the there is a solid minority,
00:52:08.640 and it could be five or 10 percent that really carry this ideal ideology that you're talking about of the desire to see a victory of Islam over every other religion and every other civilization on the planet.
00:52:21.200 And they're determined to do it with terror and with many other vehicles as well.
00:52:26.320 And they're not so crazy.
00:52:27.620 And we're talking about, therefore, 100 million plus people.
00:52:32.140 And so this is kind of the greatest threat to civilization and Western civilization that we have facing us today.
00:52:39.960 And yet people tend to marginalize it and think, oh, it's just some terror attacks or just some brown people far away that are getting hurt.
00:52:49.760 And it's really not like that at all.
00:52:52.600 There are several references to the Armenian genocide that happened with Turkey that no one will admit to still in Turkey.
00:53:01.260 Have you been called on the carpet at all?
00:53:05.280 I bet you've heard some backlash on saying that it's like the Armenian genocide.
00:53:10.080 And if so, how do you defend that?
00:53:13.780 Well, I think that the Armenian genocide is just exactly the topic that we're dealing with.
00:53:19.080 That in between 1914 and 1922, there was three and a half million Armenian Christians that were killed in the Ottoman Empire.
00:53:29.340 And at the hands of radicalized Muslims.
00:53:34.480 And this is just an example.
00:53:35.880 Then you move a little bit later.
00:53:38.600 And then, as I said, the Jewish communities of the entire Middle East were dispelled and persecuted and left to the tune of almost a million around the late 40s.
00:53:48.060 And then today, in the last few decades, the Christian community, which at the turn of the century in the Middle East was around 20 percent, is now only 3 to 5 percent.
00:53:58.340 So, this is going on for over 100 years in quite some intensity.
00:54:04.500 And the Armenian genocide was just the beginning of it.
00:54:06.940 Hitler was clear when he said, nobody paid attention to the Armenian Christians.
00:54:12.340 And if that happens, we can do whatever we want with the Jews.
00:54:15.480 Are you concerned if we don't pay attention to this now in the Middle East that somebody's learning a lesson that the world doesn't care?
00:54:21.420 Yes, definitely.
00:54:24.380 There are many theories that Hitler at the beginning would have been satisfied.
00:54:30.580 I mean, he was a horrible, horrible, evil man.
00:54:32.620 And he probably would have been satisfied with just getting the Jews out of Germany or possibly out of all of Europe if the world would have just accepted them.
00:54:41.960 Or if the British had allowed them to go to Israel at that time.
00:54:46.940 But they did not.
00:54:48.380 And as a result, he said, what am I supposed to do?
00:54:50.100 They're not letting them out of Europe.
00:54:51.920 And so he drew the conclusion that the world does not care and does not like the Jews.
00:54:57.000 And then he proceeded to the final solution.
00:54:59.520 And I definitely think that that is something that turns around in history.
00:55:05.580 And when evil people see that the rest of the world does not care, they are empowered and emboldened.
00:55:11.420 And I think that's what's going on with the Iranians and the radicalized Muslims all over the planet today.
00:55:17.900 Rabbi Schor from the Clarion Project, the founder and CEO, thank you so much.

00:55:59.860 Goldline.
00:56:01.660 Wow.
00:56:02.580 Listen to last hour if you were thinking about, oh, I don't know if I need to prepare.
00:56:08.580 The things that are going on in the world, and we were just talking about it with Israel, that can change everything.
00:56:13.980 I'm very concerned about the 70th anniversary that is coming up with Israel, and Donald Trump is going to be there opening the U.S. Embassy.
00:56:23.260 I mean, if that isn't an important date, I don't know what is.
00:56:27.160 Israel is now preparing to go to war with Iran.
00:56:31.960 What are we going to do?
00:56:34.000 This whole thing is a house of cards, and one day you're going to wake up, and you're going to realize, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:56:41.040 What do you mean I can't get?
00:56:42.140 I can't get my money out of the bank, or I can only get this, or it's going to happen.
00:56:46.660 It's going to happen.
00:56:48.200 When it does, what are you going to do?
00:56:50.760 May I suggest that you have some food, you have some, you know, the basic stuff, and you have some gold.
00:57:00.100 Gold is the hedge against insanity and against inflation, and God forbid, hyperinflation.
00:57:08.280 Gold.
00:57:09.020 The world always returns to common sense and always returns to gold.
00:57:14.420 866-GOLD-LINE.
00:57:15.820 Read the important risk information and find out if gold or silver is right for you.

00:57:24.100 Glenn Beck Mercury.
00:57:39.560 Glenn Beck.
00:57:41.660 You know, we don't always do themed programs here, but today we have a goal in mind.
00:57:47.340 We do?
00:57:47.520 Yes, the entire goal of the program is to take you, Glenn, from optimism to pessimism.
00:57:53.400 Because when you're optimistic, that means usually the future is dark.
00:57:59.120 What do you, I mean, what do you have?
00:58:00.700 What do you have to make that clear?
00:58:03.700 I mean, that's not true.
00:58:04.820 Well, I've already given you the fact that there might be a war in the Middle East.
00:58:07.400 I have given you that the Boy Scouts are no longer going to be called the Boy Scouts.
00:58:15.120 They're removing the word boy.
00:58:17.020 But they're keeping the BS in BS of A.
00:58:20.000 They are.
00:58:20.720 They are doing that.
00:58:21.540 I want a t-shirt that says, keeping the BS in the BS of A.
00:58:26.180 When you buy your kids cartoon DVDs, like Bugs Bunny and Foghorn Leghorn, you get this.
00:58:34.520 Some of the cartoons you're about to see are a product of their time.
00:58:38.120 They may depict some of the ethnic and racial prejudices that were commonplace in American society.
00:58:44.240 These depictions were wrong then and are wrong today.
00:58:47.280 While the following does not represent the Warner Brothers view of today's society,
00:58:51.820 some of these cartoons are being presented as they were originally created
00:58:55.560 because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed.
00:59:00.680 Okay.
00:59:01.200 All right.
00:59:01.720 Whatever.
00:59:03.340 You're such a rookie at this.
00:59:04.580 You want to be pessimistic?
00:59:07.120 Let me take you to China.
00:59:09.300 Okay.
00:59:09.740 Where the Chinese have just adopted a new exciting artificial intelligence technology.
00:59:17.020 Oh, great.
00:59:17.520 It's great.
00:59:18.200 You're going to love it.
00:59:19.620 Next.
00:59:21.820 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:59:41.580 Welcome to the program.
00:59:42.860 So glad that you're here.
00:59:44.680 There is a lot to discuss today.
00:59:47.240 Anyway, we have some really good history on a guy named John Kasser that we're going to get to that Kanye kind of stumbled into yesterday.
00:59:57.680 He didn't really know it, but it's worth discussing.
01:00:00.940 So you can talk on social media with your friends and introduce them to some.
01:00:04.620 Oh, I seem like you're a little optimistic there.
01:00:07.080 I am.
01:00:08.040 Hey, that's great.
01:00:08.860 You know, Kanye is actually making me optimistic because not because of, you know, he's coming to our side or whatever.
01:00:15.280 He's probably nuts.
01:00:16.720 I mean, he's got a long, long, long list of saying crazy things.
01:00:21.440 George Bush hates black people, etc.
01:00:22.960 So he's just as likely to say, you know what, that moon landing was a movie next week, as he does to say, and I learned something else from Thomas Sowell.
01:00:35.520 So but I'm optimistic because he's bringing this conversation of free thought into the mainstream.
01:00:41.260 And I think we are, there's a possibility that there's a dam break here.
01:00:45.800 It's possible.
01:00:46.680 And that's good that you're optimistic.
01:00:48.540 At least it would be for normal people.
01:00:50.740 Because, I mean, I've been around you a long time.
01:00:52.860 I remember in 1999, you being very pessimistic, particularly about Osama bin Laden.
01:00:57.800 And then in 2000.
01:00:59.200 And it paid off.
01:00:59.840 Did it?
01:01:01.000 Well, I mean, it's true.
01:01:01.360 Because then 2001 happens.
01:01:03.780 Yeah.
01:01:04.000 And then you become.
01:01:07.220 Optimistic.
01:01:07.840 Optimistic.
01:01:08.260 Because we made it.
01:01:09.020 When everyone else is, you know.
01:01:10.800 Right.
01:01:11.540 I just tell you what's coming.
01:01:13.280 And then when it comes, I'm like, yeah, but don't worry about it.
01:01:15.280 It's going to make it.
01:01:16.140 With the housing crisis, right?
01:01:17.100 You were very pessimistic in 2007 and 2008.
01:01:19.420 And then you became optimistic after that.
01:01:21.680 Just have to rip it off the.
01:01:23.960 So it is a little concerning that I am optimistic now.
01:01:26.580 The lesson I learned is to try to make you pessimistic.
01:01:30.320 Because then good things will happen to me.
01:01:32.600 All right.
01:01:33.020 Okay.
01:01:33.320 That's what I want out of this.
01:01:35.040 But I don't think that's necessarily.
01:01:36.240 Let me tell you a little story, actually.
01:01:37.520 All right.
01:01:37.880 Now that we're on this topic.
01:01:39.240 All right.
01:01:39.560 Coming up in just a short time.
01:01:40.800 I'm going to tell the story of a man.
01:01:44.080 He's an older man.
01:01:45.100 Had a great career.
01:01:46.660 Worked hard.
01:01:47.620 Really rose to incredible heights in his industry.
01:01:50.120 And then you ruined his life.
01:01:53.280 I ruined his life?
01:01:54.460 You ruined his life.
01:01:55.520 I ruined his life.
01:01:57.000 Mm-hmm.
01:01:57.280 And he was very well respected.
01:01:59.980 And then you came along.
01:02:02.120 Is it Van Jones?
01:02:04.640 Are you?
01:02:05.300 Is this a surprise?
01:02:06.240 Is this a surprise bringing Van Jones on?
01:02:08.240 No.
01:02:08.460 Van Jones is not on the program today.
01:02:09.800 Okay.
01:02:10.060 All right.
01:02:10.420 That would have been a surprise.
01:02:11.780 That would have been a surprise.
01:02:12.560 Yes.
01:02:12.780 Yes.
01:02:13.120 We have someone that you've never spoken to before, to my knowledge.
01:02:16.400 Okay.
01:02:17.580 And I think...
01:02:19.280 And this is just to tear me down.
01:02:21.040 I want to hurt your feelings.
01:02:22.760 Now, I don't know that this person necessarily explains this career arc the same way.
01:02:29.120 But this is how I'm looking at it.
01:02:30.480 And this is how you should also be looking at it.
01:02:32.140 All right.
01:02:32.500 You know, we could just go to China.
01:02:34.680 You want to be pessimistic about things.
01:02:36.540 You want to...
01:02:37.020 Here.
01:02:38.140 You want to look at your phone in a whole new way.
01:02:40.680 Instead of like, wow, this is the greatest device.
01:02:42.780 Mm-hmm.
01:02:43.340 You know?
01:02:43.980 And not when you get mad and you're like, why isn't this thing...
01:02:47.720 No, not that.
01:02:48.700 Look at it like, this is trouble.
01:02:51.880 Let me take you to China.
01:02:55.120 China announced yesterday that they have begun monitoring employees' brainwaves
01:03:02.140 and emotions through a new chip.
01:03:09.700 And it has boosted one of the company's profits by $315 million.
01:03:18.260 Employees...
01:03:19.300 Quoting, employees' brainwaves are reportedly being monitored in factories,
01:03:24.700 state-owned enterprises, and the military across China.
01:03:27.860 The technology works by placing wireless sensors in employees' caps or their hats,
01:03:34.000 which combined with artificial intelligence algorithms spot incidents of workplace rage,
01:03:39.820 anxiety, and sadness.
01:03:42.560 Quoting, employers use this emotional surveillance technology by then tweaking workflows,
01:03:50.220 including employee placement and breaks, to increase productivity and profits.
01:03:58.920 A dozen businesses and Chinese military are now using this program.
01:04:05.300 They thought we could read their mind, speaking of the employees.
01:04:10.680 This caused some discomfort and resistance in the beginning.
01:04:15.900 Did it?
01:04:16.720 Yeah.
01:04:16.960 But after a while, they all got used to the device, and they wear it all day at work now.
01:04:24.380 When the system issues a warning, the manager asks that worker to take the day off
01:04:29.540 or move to a less critical post.
01:04:32.160 Some jobs require high concentration, and there is no room for mistake.
01:04:36.740 Widespread use of emotion monitoring may mark a new stage in China's surveillance state.
01:04:43.920 They have generally been focused on facial recognition and increased internet censorship.
01:04:51.100 Now, you say to yourself, what could possibly happen?
01:04:55.380 What could go wrong with something like that?
01:04:57.280 What could go wrong?
01:04:57.720 This is actually, just to help you out, this is actually not the first step.
01:05:03.360 The first step we found out about four weeks ago, and it is China imposing a social credit system.
01:05:14.580 Now, this will be fully implemented by 2020.
01:05:18.900 Listen to this.
01:05:20.260 The Chinese state is setting up a vast ranking system that will monitor the behavior of its enormous population
01:05:25.860 and rank them based on their social credit.
01:05:29.120 The social credit system, first announced in 2014, aims to reinforce the idea that keeping trust is glorious
01:05:37.040 and breaking trust is disgraceful.
01:05:40.500 The program will be fully optimized, and I'm quoting, fully operational.
01:05:48.140 You shouldn't use Death Star lingo in your giant government programs.
01:05:52.860 It will be fully operational.
01:05:54.580 Don't use that.
01:05:55.680 By 2020, it's being piloted now for millions of people already.
01:06:01.660 It is mandatory.
01:06:03.520 Here it is.
01:06:04.420 So far, it is piecemeal.
01:06:07.480 Private credit scores, people will now have a social score, and it will move up and down depending on your behavior.
01:06:15.860 What the methodology is, is still secret, a little like the New York Times bestseller list.
01:06:23.400 Examples of infractions include bad driving, smoking in non-smoking zones, playing too many video games, or posting fake news online.
01:06:33.920 Well, I don't do any of that.
01:06:36.320 9 million people already with low scores have been blocked from buying tickets for domestic airplane flights.
01:06:45.440 9 million.
01:06:47.100 They can also clamp down on luxury items.
01:06:49.320 3 million people are now barred from getting business class train tickets.
01:06:53.700 The eventual system will punish bad passengers specifically.
01:06:57.020 Potential misdeeds include trying to ride with no ticket, loitering in front of a boarding gate, or smoking in non-smoking areas.
01:07:05.220 What possible abuse could happen here?
01:07:08.560 They also are going to monitor whether you pay your bills on time.
01:07:12.640 Other offenses here, too long playing video games, wasting money on what the state says is frivolous purchases, and posting on social media.
01:07:24.680 Spreading fake news specifically about terrorist attacks, airport security, or anything about the government is also punishable.
01:07:33.420 17 people who refused to carry out military service last year were barred from enrolling in higher education, applying for high school, or continuing their studies.
01:07:42.640 Citizens with a low socials credit will also be prohibited from enrolling their children at high-paying private schools.
01:07:50.200 Trust-breaking individuals will be banned from doing any kind of management jobs in state-owned firms and big banks.
01:07:58.180 Some crimes, like fraud and embezzlement, will also have big effects on social credit.
01:08:02.960 People who refuse the military service are banned from holidays and hotels.
01:08:11.980 So, holiday is like the English holiday.
01:08:15.120 Vacation.
01:08:17.400 The regime wards people as well as punishes them.
01:08:20.920 People with good scores speed up travel applications to places like Europe.
01:08:24.540 An unidentified woman in Beijing told the BBC she was able to book a hotel without having to pay a cash deposit because she had a good score.
01:08:32.700 Naming and shaming is the other tactic.
01:08:35.560 The government put people on notice that companies need to consult the blacklist before hiring people or giving them contracts.
01:08:44.340 However, people will be notified by the courts before they are added to the list and are allowed to appeal the decision within 10 days.
01:08:51.760 That'll work out well.
01:08:52.780 You'll definitely get something overturned from the Chinese government.
01:08:55.720 Can you imagine that?
01:08:56.620 If you saw the Black Mirror episode, that I am completely convinced was based on this program.
01:09:04.160 It's not the other way around.
01:09:05.040 People are like, oh, well, this is just like that Black Mirror episode.
01:09:07.760 No, it's Black Mirror just made it Americanized and made it a fictional version of it where every interaction you have, you can rate the person that you've had this reaction with.
01:09:20.500 Now, this is more individuals, but the same thing happened with plane tickets.
01:09:24.100 The woman was going to fly to a wedding.
01:09:26.420 Right.
01:09:26.660 She couldn't.
01:09:27.080 And she couldn't because her social score had fallen below a certain point and she was not allowed to buy an airplane ticket.
01:09:34.560 Right.
01:09:35.260 And this happens and it gets cycles out of control for her in the episode.
01:09:39.200 It's worth watching if you've ever, never, never seen it.
01:09:41.660 It is exactly this story.
01:09:44.240 In action.
01:09:44.640 Except this one's from the government.
01:09:46.120 Yeah.
01:09:46.260 I mean, like, you know, I guess the government system had been applied where this is more people rating you in individual interactions.
01:09:53.820 But I bet that's going to be part of it.
01:09:55.900 You know, of course it is.
01:09:56.780 The Chinese people are very excited about it because they say people used to cross the street outside of crosswalks and they no longer do that.
01:10:02.760 Because if you're caught on camera crossing a street, not obeying the traffic laws, then you are automatically going to get to points deducted.
01:10:11.380 But if you go to the government website for dating and you have the government match you up with a spouse, you get extra points.
01:10:22.980 Oh, wow.
01:10:23.800 Very nice.
01:10:25.020 Is this terrifying?
01:10:27.060 Terrifying.
01:10:27.520 And bits and pieces of this are already coming.
01:10:29.440 I saw an ad the other day for a new car insurance company.
01:10:32.700 And the car insurance company has a new technology that monitors your phone.
01:10:38.760 You sign up for the car insurance company.
01:10:40.760 You drive around for two weeks.
01:10:43.040 It monitors everything you do while you're driving around.
01:10:46.020 And then it takes you if you're a safe driver, a safe driver, whatever that means.
01:10:50.480 Right.
01:10:50.780 So the idea is that you get better rates because they don't have to insure the crappy drivers.
01:10:54.900 They can only insure the good drivers because they're going to monitor you driving around to see if you exceed speed limits to see.
01:11:00.120 I mean, really everything that you're doing.
01:11:01.940 Right.
01:11:03.240 In theory, is that a good idea?
01:11:06.000 I mean, my first reaction was, oh, I should sign up for that.
01:11:09.160 Yeah.
01:11:09.500 And then I thought, they're not going to see me as a safe driver.
01:11:12.200 I shouldn't sign up for that.
01:11:13.340 You know, but the other thing, the nice thing is, is, you know, as long as like Pat's had a couple of surgeries, we've had some people with cancer.
01:11:20.160 As long as we fire those people or don't hire them, our insurance rates will be a lot cheaper.
01:11:26.620 Yeah.
01:11:26.860 So when we have somebody who's sick, we should just get them off.
01:11:29.540 That's the kind of thinking this is.
01:11:32.460 This is really dangerous.
01:11:35.820 And China now is implementing brain scans to be able to read the workers' minds.
01:11:44.480 This is not some, you know, futuristic novel.
01:11:48.560 This is in place today in China.
01:11:52.580 What do you think, America?
01:11:55.140 Do you think maybe we should try to maybe do a Manhattan project for AI?
01:12:00.540 Because whoever gets AI first is going to rule the world.
01:12:05.180 Hmm, seem a little pessimistic.
01:12:07.580 Uh, there, that's, wow, your future, your outlook on the future doesn't look too bright right now.
01:12:11.540 But then I remember that I have this happy surprise coming up in just a few minutes from you.
01:12:15.320 Oh, no.
01:12:15.700 And suddenly I'm more optimistic.
01:12:18.340 I'm hoping it goes very badly.
01:12:20.900 Very badly.
01:12:21.960 I ruined his life.
01:12:23.740 In my view, you've ruined his life, yes.
01:12:26.500 I don't know that he would say that, but he might not, you know, it's hard to examine yourself, you know.
01:12:31.840 Would I know his name?
01:12:32.720 But you would definitely, with 100% certitude, will know this guy's name.
01:12:39.280 100%.
01:12:39.680 And you've never talked to him before.
01:12:42.420 I am 100% sure you will know his name.
01:12:48.700 It's not like a family member.
01:12:50.900 It is not a family member.
01:12:51.900 Okay.
01:12:53.340 Oh, I can't wait.
01:12:54.360 Now, see, I'm optimistic.
01:12:55.400 I'm excited.
01:12:55.860 There's something to live for in the next 20 minutes.
01:12:58.860 All right.
01:12:59.420 Let me tell you about LifeLock.
01:13:00.580 Vulnerability on your life.
01:13:05.220 Look at what we just talked about.
01:13:07.060 Now, somebody is hacking into all of those things.
01:13:10.000 I don't know if you heard this.
01:13:12.000 Casino.
01:13:13.280 In Las Vegas.
01:13:16.200 What was the movie?
01:13:17.100 Ocean's Eleven.
01:13:18.180 You saw what Ocean's Eleven was like.
01:13:20.140 Okay.
01:13:20.560 I mean, I'm pretty sure that they have something kind of like all of those devices to make sure
01:13:26.100 that nobody hacks in to the casinos.
01:13:28.300 It's not a documentary, Glenn.
01:13:29.740 Jeez.
01:13:30.140 So hackers.
01:13:31.340 Unbelievable.
01:13:32.780 Hackers.
01:13:33.860 And this is true.
01:13:34.940 Just happened.
01:13:36.440 Accessed a smart thermometer at a casino.
01:13:39.700 And they hacked in and got all of the information in the database of high rollers from the thermometer.
01:13:46.540 You don't think somebody's going to get your stuff?
01:13:49.900 It's the Internet of Things.
01:13:52.160 Everything is connected.
01:13:53.280 And if there is one tiny little space open where somebody can get in, they're going to get in.
01:13:59.720 That's why the new LifeLock Identity Theft Protection has added the power of Norton Security
01:14:04.620 to help you protect against threats to your identity and to your devices
01:14:08.300 that you can't easily see or fix on your own.
01:14:10.940 And if you have a problem, they have agents who are going to work to fix it.
01:14:14.520 Now, nobody can stop all cyber threats, prevent all identity theft,
01:14:17.520 or monitor all transactions at all businesses.
01:14:19.340 But with the new LifeLock with Norton Security,
01:14:22.300 they're able to uncover the threats you might otherwise miss.
01:14:25.020 So go to LifeLock.com or call 1-800-LIFELOCK.
01:14:28.800 Use the promo code BECK.
01:14:29.980 Additional 10% off your first year.
01:14:32.320 Promo code BECK at LifeLock.com.
01:14:37.820 Glenn Beck Mercury.
01:14:49.340 Oh, wow.
01:15:00.020 65% of 8th graders in American public schools,
01:15:03.360 65% are not proficient in reading.
01:15:07.400 Eh, it's overrated.
01:15:09.160 67% are not proficient in mathematics.
01:15:13.140 Hmm.
01:15:13.720 We need more money.
01:15:14.620 Uh, in the urban districts, it's even worse.
01:15:19.760 Um, in Detroit, only 5% of 8th grade students are proficient in reading,
01:15:25.760 and only 7% are proficient or better in, uh, in math.
01:15:30.260 So that means 95% aren't?
01:15:32.460 Mm-hmm.
01:15:34.200 It's not really the right math, but I figured I'd...
01:15:37.260 Wait, what?
01:15:38.160 Oh, you mean because of the 7%?
01:15:39.680 Yes.
01:15:39.920 Uh, in Cleveland public schools, only 11% of 8th graders were proficient or better
01:15:44.520 in math, and 10% were proficient or better in reading.
01:15:49.280 Baltimore, 11% in math, 13% in reading.
01:15:53.580 In Fresno, 11% and 14% in reading.
01:15:57.180 You don't need it anymore, though.
01:15:58.640 You just, you just need to be able to Google through your, your, your brain chip,
01:16:02.660 and then everything's going to be fine.
01:16:03.700 Yeah.
01:16:04.380 You can, well, you can't read anything, but eventually someone will read,
01:16:08.060 and you can't write, you know, you can't write what you were looking for into Google.
01:16:12.380 They just had the guy on 60 Minutes who did it without typing anything.
01:16:15.180 It was attached to his...
01:16:17.040 Oh, it's going to be so great.
01:16:17.600 Remember that?
01:16:18.140 He, he, they heard the question, it Googled it for you, and it told you through your ear,
01:16:21.880 and you gave the answer.
01:16:23.260 That'd be so fantastic.
01:16:25.200 And if I could get a chip in my brain that monitors how I'm feeling and what I'm thinking,
01:16:30.500 gives me a score on where I can go and what I can do, and the government can read that?
01:16:35.080 Oh, man, they were right.
01:16:37.620 China is the bright, bright future.
01:16:40.980 Glenn Beck.
01:16:42.620 Mercury.
01:16:54.200 Love.
01:16:55.480 Courage.
01:16:57.100 Truth.
01:16:58.840 Glenn Beck.
01:17:00.860 Okay, I don't know if anybody's noticed this.
01:17:02.880 Stu, have you heard Kanye West has a new album coming out?
01:17:07.200 No.
01:17:07.760 Yes.
01:17:07.920 Does he now?
01:17:08.940 He's in the news a lot lately, but I don't know.
01:17:11.340 He should be tweeting.
01:17:12.400 He should be, you know, and coincidentally, while everyone is talking about him, he's got
01:17:18.700 a new album coming out.
01:17:19.840 Now, my guess is it's going to be the worst reviewed album he's ever done.
01:17:24.880 Without a doubt.
01:17:25.800 If Jesus is singing with him and God himself wrote the music, it's going to get bad reviews.
01:17:34.740 But that's what's happening.
01:17:36.480 Okay.
01:17:37.160 The man knows what he's doing.
01:17:38.880 He throws, you know, he throws curveballs into the culture all the time.
01:17:43.240 And it is that whirling undertone of identity politics that, you know, Bush hates black
01:17:49.560 people.
01:17:50.020 That's me.
01:17:50.780 That's Kanye West.
01:17:52.640 Now he's doing it the other way.
01:17:54.120 Now, I'm not saying he doesn't mean what he's saying, although some of it is doubtless
01:17:57.940 tongue in cheek.
01:17:58.720 But what I am saying is that Kanye does this every time that he's about to release an album.
01:18:04.020 Last time he went on Kimball and appeared to lose his mind.
01:18:08.360 Before that, he was effectively banished to Hawaii after his Taylor Swift snafu.
01:18:13.440 This is what he does.
01:18:15.540 Now, hopefully, you know, he's going to get some word out into the culture about free thinking.
01:18:23.680 But let's remember, Kanye is part of a family that found its way to make millions of dollars
01:18:27.820 for posting selfies on Instagram, which they literally get paid to use.
01:18:34.500 They've also found a way to monetize Americans emotional reactions.
01:18:37.520 And that's what's happening here.
01:18:38.940 Every time a pundit or a journalist does a piece about Kanye, cha-ching, he wins.
01:18:43.580 Every bit of offense, cha-ching, he wins.
01:18:48.000 Now, the album is going to come out and he'll go on a massive tour and then he'll vanish again
01:18:52.840 and make another album.
01:18:53.980 It's what he does.
01:18:56.080 It's part of his unique ability to sell himself as a brand, quite honestly, much like the president
01:19:01.600 of the United States does.
01:19:02.900 Trump and Kanye West, they're contrarian.
01:19:07.380 They fight the power constantly, but they are the power.
01:19:13.000 They both love riling the feathers of the elite.
01:19:16.600 And right now, the elite happen to be a bunch of bratty, intolerable social justice warriors
01:19:21.260 running amok through the country.
01:19:23.260 For now, Kanye may be kind of on your side if you're a free thinker.
01:19:31.400 And whether you're just up to, you know, buying into the hype or not.
01:19:37.600 It's Wednesday, May 2nd.
01:19:44.640 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:19:47.700 I've been promised a surprise.
01:19:49.100 I've been in a very good mood today.
01:19:50.580 And I've been promised a surprise by Stu.
01:19:53.240 He's been trying to destroy my career, destroy my mood all day.
01:19:57.040 That's what I do.
01:19:57.540 Because I'm positive and he doesn't like it when I'm positive.
01:20:00.940 It's very true.
01:20:02.040 And that's why we've brought to you, I think, a cool surprise today.
01:20:04.760 You've promised me someone that I will know.
01:20:07.480 100% will know the name.
01:20:09.680 And that I have destroyed their career.
01:20:12.140 Well, I don't think he would describe it that way.
01:20:15.160 I'm trying to make you feel bad.
01:20:16.780 So I'm describing it that way.
01:20:18.420 And more than his career his entire life.
01:20:20.560 Because here's a guy who has had an incredible career for many, many decades.
01:20:25.400 And then around the early 2000s, something changes in that career.
01:20:30.480 And it involves you very closely.
01:20:32.320 Really?
01:20:32.800 Yes.
01:20:33.600 Is he a celebrity?
01:20:34.780 He is.
01:20:36.320 And I would know his name.
01:20:37.820 100% will know his name.
01:20:40.960 Have we ever talked about him before?
01:20:43.380 We have never talked about him on the air before.
01:20:48.440 I don't think.
01:20:49.720 Okay.
01:20:50.240 Maybe once or twice.
01:20:51.760 Okay.
01:20:52.260 But that doesn't...
01:20:53.120 So who is it?
01:20:53.840 Well, ladies and gentlemen, a 60...
01:20:56.300 I mean, a working actor for about 60 years.
01:21:01.120 Welcome to the program.
01:21:02.980 Glenn Beck.
01:21:04.440 Shut up.
01:21:07.300 Glenn, how are you?
01:21:09.040 Hello, hello, hello.
01:21:10.480 I have been a fan of yours since Space Odyssey.
01:21:14.420 All the way to your fine, fine work on Haters Back Off.
01:21:19.840 Oh, you saw that one.
01:21:21.660 Oh, I did.
01:21:22.240 Oh, yeah.
01:21:22.580 I've seen your work.
01:21:23.500 I've seen your work.
01:21:24.440 You were just in the movie we were talking about recently.
01:21:27.600 Little Pink House.
01:21:28.520 Little Pink House.
01:21:29.460 You're in that.
01:21:30.180 Little Pink House, for sure.
01:21:31.500 And that was a wonderful experience.
01:21:33.320 It was a very quick cameo, but had a great time with Catherine and Courtney.
01:21:38.640 So, speaking to Glenn Beck on the Glenn Beck program, I apologize for anything that I have inflicted on your life.
01:21:51.600 What has it been like to be confused, to have the same name, same spelling?
01:21:56.280 Well, I found out some years ago that you were exactly the same spelling and everything.
01:22:05.240 And I just took it as, yes, that's fine.
01:22:08.700 What do we do?
01:22:09.960 But I guess I've gotten your way a little bit, and you've probably gotten my way a little bit.
01:22:15.240 So, did you have a hard time?
01:22:18.720 Has anyone in Hollywood given you a hard time for having the name Glenn Beck in the last 10 years?
01:22:23.560 Oh, not at all.
01:22:25.980 Not at all.
01:22:27.120 The only problem I had was a little story that the casting director called my agent and said,
01:22:35.340 was I available to go to Romania?
01:22:38.780 And they mentioned the money and everything like that, and a quick verbal contract.
01:22:46.140 And then I found that they were actually looking for you.
01:22:53.560 So, I didn't go to, I mean...
01:22:56.260 You would have, if you would have gone to, if you would have gone to Romania, I guarantee you, it wasn't a movie role.
01:23:01.780 They wanted you for something else.
01:23:03.500 You would have never returned.
01:23:04.820 I'm sure of it.
01:23:06.120 Did you do that?
01:23:07.260 Did you do that job?
01:23:09.660 No, I actually didn't.
01:23:10.860 I do know what you're talking about.
01:23:12.060 They wanted to make a movie.
01:23:13.720 I think it was...
01:23:15.840 Sharknado.
01:23:17.380 Sharknado.
01:23:18.060 They were filming in Bulgaria, in Romania, and wanted me to go.
01:23:22.960 And I couldn't make the time.
01:23:25.520 Well, funnily enough, I found lately that a verbal contract, if they mention the money and everything, is binding.
01:23:34.460 But when my agent pulled up and said, perhaps, you know, you could advance a little bit of cash,
01:23:42.320 and they said, absolutely not.
01:23:44.620 I could have taken him to court for that, but unfortunately, it's the Canadian law, you know, all that stuff.
01:23:56.720 Yeah, you're up in Canada.
01:23:58.120 How old of a man are you now, do you mind me asking?
01:24:00.900 I'm 82.
01:24:02.280 82.
01:24:03.680 And you have been...
01:24:05.440 You were in Dr. Strangelove.
01:24:07.080 I mean, you have been in the movies...
01:24:08.440 Yes, I was.
01:24:09.280 You've been in the movies forever, it seems.
01:24:12.280 I mean, you've got to be one of the longest-running actors around.
01:24:17.900 Well, I suppose I am.
01:24:19.740 I mean, I just worked with Chris Plummer, and he's 90-something, and he's just turned 90,
01:24:26.240 and we had a little poker scene together.
01:24:29.940 That's amazing.
01:24:30.980 So tell me, like, who have you met, or who has taught you anything that's been instrumental in your life,
01:24:40.200 or, you know, what is...
01:24:41.740 Tell me some of the behind-the-scenes of being, you know, a Glenn Beck that used his powers for good,
01:24:47.080 as opposed to evil.
01:24:47.940 Well, yes, that's something that we must keep our good names together without fail.
01:25:01.480 Anyway, when I first started out, it was in Vancouver, where I am now,
01:25:07.120 and there's some absolutely wonderful people who taught me a great deal,
01:25:12.220 and I did some work from the age of...
01:25:16.180 Well, from the age of...
01:25:17.880 I got 61 years in the business, anyway.
01:25:22.420 These people helped me along the way,
01:25:25.420 but when I got to England, it was absolutely wonderful,
01:25:29.940 because every actor that I worked with worked hard,
01:25:33.840 which is not the case in Vancouver at that time,
01:25:37.200 and they really worked well.
01:25:40.380 I learned so much absolutely working,
01:25:43.420 and people like Albert Finney I worked with in the West End,
01:25:48.860 and Jim Dale.
01:25:51.640 You may know Jim Dale.
01:25:53.500 He did Barnum on Broadway, and stuff like that.
01:25:56.840 So you...
01:25:57.340 I mean, you worked...
01:25:58.580 There is a difference between an English actor and a North American actor,
01:26:02.440 because they take their craft seriously.
01:26:04.300 Not anymore, particularly,
01:26:05.420 but at that time,
01:26:07.700 it was kind of semi-pro in Vancouver,
01:26:11.860 and once I got to England,
01:26:15.280 it was...
01:26:16.420 The learning all came from...
01:26:20.420 Particularly in movies, you know,
01:26:23.380 because I did an enormous amount of stage as well.
01:26:27.040 We actually...
01:26:28.060 I didn't realize, you know,
01:26:30.120 first of all, the length and all the credits that you have.
01:26:32.760 I mean, 2001 A Space Odyssey,
01:26:33.960 there's incredible amounts of really well-known stuff
01:26:38.100 that you've been in, Glenn.
01:26:39.640 But I was amazing to see.
01:26:41.280 I'm looking at the credits of Little Pink House, the movie,
01:26:44.440 and I see Glenn Beck,
01:26:46.060 and this is a case,
01:26:47.020 the Kelo case in the Supreme Court,
01:26:48.620 which is an incredibly important case
01:26:50.000 that we have talked about for years and years and years and years.
01:26:53.140 And looking at that,
01:26:53.900 I thought maybe...
01:26:54.780 Yeah, I thought maybe they had cast
01:26:57.340 the Glenn Beck here sitting with me
01:26:59.760 in the movie,
01:27:01.080 because, you know, Glenn's done his share,
01:27:02.680 as you mentioned, Sharknado,
01:27:04.060 they wanted him in that,
01:27:04.800 but you've done your share of movies
01:27:06.060 and TV stuff where you've appeared as yourself.
01:27:08.600 I thought it was going to be that,
01:27:11.180 and then here you are.
01:27:12.480 Was it at all strange
01:27:14.180 to kind of be involved in a movie like this,
01:27:16.840 and what was the experience like?
01:27:20.140 Well, you know,
01:27:21.820 it was a job,
01:27:22.920 and it was a good job,
01:27:25.020 because I believed in what they were trying to fight
01:27:31.820 and various things,
01:27:34.440 and also it was a job, money, etc.
01:27:39.900 I don't work for nothing.
01:27:41.720 Have you had a good life, Glenn?
01:27:45.140 Yes.
01:27:45.980 If you could...
01:27:46.800 I'm still having a good life.
01:27:48.200 That's great.
01:27:48.900 I'm still working, and, you know...
01:27:51.940 Obviously.
01:27:53.080 Obviously.
01:27:54.100 What would be the wisdom
01:27:56.440 that you would leave us,
01:27:57.880 from one Glenn Beck to another?
01:27:59.640 Why would I leave it?
01:28:02.040 No, no, no.
01:28:02.500 What wisdom could you leave us with?
01:28:10.100 Death.
01:28:13.940 No, not when are you going to leave us with wisdom.
01:28:16.300 No, no, no.
01:28:16.920 Do you have any advice
01:28:17.640 from one Glenn Beck to another?
01:28:19.180 Yeah, that's probably a better way of saying it.
01:28:21.060 Do you have any advice?
01:28:22.880 Life advice.
01:28:24.620 Well, be nice to people on the way up,
01:28:27.540 because you might leave them on the way down.
01:28:29.640 Boy, is that not great advice.
01:28:31.640 Yeah.
01:28:31.880 Not great advice.
01:28:32.780 That's great.
01:28:33.420 Glenn, just one quick question,
01:28:34.900 because my daughter will kill me.
01:28:36.080 We watch Backers Hate Off,
01:28:38.360 or Haters Back Off with Miranda.
01:28:41.600 And what is that actress like
01:28:44.300 when she's not Miranda?
01:28:48.180 Oh, she's very sweet.
01:28:49.480 Very nice.
01:28:50.400 You know, just an ordinary wonderful,
01:28:55.120 good actress.
01:28:56.120 Yeah.
01:28:56.860 No, she's a great actress.
01:28:57.780 She's a great actress.
01:28:58.540 Very strange, very strange role.
01:29:00.880 Yeah.
01:29:01.380 Yeah.
01:29:01.920 Yeah.
01:29:02.340 Yeah, absolutely.
01:29:03.580 Glenn, it's just a pleasure to talk to you, sir.
01:29:06.280 And I'm sorry for any of the damage
01:29:07.980 that I may have done to your career
01:29:09.340 and to your good name.
01:29:11.260 But we should, before Glenn leaves,
01:29:13.000 we should mention,
01:29:13.600 also in National Treasure,
01:29:15.140 played Abraham Lincoln.
01:29:15.980 Oh, that's right.
01:29:16.320 There's a heck of a role.
01:29:18.600 National Treasure, yeah.
01:29:19.800 I played Abraham Lincoln.
01:29:22.460 They had to come all the way to England
01:29:24.000 to find a Canadian of the players.
01:29:29.420 That's great.
01:29:30.640 Glenn Beck, thank you so much.
01:29:31.940 I appreciate it.
01:29:32.700 God bless.
01:29:34.020 Oh, it's my pleasure as well.
01:29:35.900 Thank you, Mr. Beck.
01:29:37.140 And we will maybe run into each other another time.
01:29:41.480 It would be an honor.
01:29:42.300 Thank you so much, sir.
01:29:43.100 Thank you so much, sir.
01:30:13.500 That you ruined his career.
01:30:15.720 I guess maybe a producer or a writer
01:30:19.200 would have thought of that in advance
01:30:20.760 before the performance.
01:30:21.820 Nobody said I was fast.
01:30:23.520 Let me tell you about Mother's Day.
01:30:25.740 Mother's Day is coming up not this Sunday,
01:30:27.900 but the Sunday after.
01:30:29.440 What have you done?
01:30:32.180 Do you have anything?
01:30:34.260 Got anything going?
01:30:36.820 I mean, how many weeks did you say?
01:30:39.980 You got what?
01:30:40.900 Not this Sunday, but next.
01:30:42.360 Oh, I have plenty of time.
01:30:44.640 You and I are so much alike.
01:30:46.080 It's so true.
01:30:47.260 That's why 1-800-Flowers is a good thing to have
01:30:49.600 because you don't have to think about it
01:30:52.380 in a lot in advance.
01:30:54.440 Amen.
01:30:55.180 No, no, no.
01:30:55.660 I think a lot about it.
01:30:57.160 No, no, no.
01:30:57.780 Well, what I meant is from other people.
01:31:00.300 Yes.
01:31:00.780 Those people don't have to think about it.
01:31:02.220 Now, I've already obviously purchased stuff
01:31:05.000 from 1-800-Flowers.
01:31:06.280 Yeah, and I purchased them
01:31:08.580 because I've put a lot of thought into it,
01:31:10.780 and I'm not a procrastinator.
01:31:12.660 That's the whole point of capitalism, though, isn't it?
01:31:14.440 Yes, it is.
01:31:14.880 To me, it's like taking events
01:31:17.240 that would be difficult for you to do,
01:31:19.600 still executing them really well,
01:31:21.620 but you don't have to put any effort into it.
01:31:23.700 Could Stu and I give you a little piece of advice as well?
01:31:26.160 If you're a new dad and your wife is like,
01:31:30.280 no, honey, I, you know, we don't need anything.
01:31:32.880 Don't, I just not, you're not my mother.
01:31:35.420 Do not listen to her.
01:31:38.220 Okay, don't listen to her.
01:31:40.080 Don't listen to her.
01:31:41.660 Take this from, I've had two wives,
01:31:43.760 so I have experience.
01:31:45.620 I'm more experienced than most people, okay?
01:31:47.680 I've done this twice, so.
01:31:49.880 That's not a good commercial for your marriage quality.
01:31:51.720 Anyway, Mother's Day, don't screw this up.
01:31:54.180 Mother's Day, 1-800-Flowers.

01:32:35.480 Glenn Beck.
01:32:37.320 Mercury.
01:32:37.780 That's amazing to talk to that guy who's a Hollywood actor named Glenn Beck.
01:32:58.660 If you look at what he has done, he's, you know, Dr. Strangelove.
01:33:02.940 He did Space Odyssey.
01:33:05.820 He worked with Anthony Hopkins, Clive Owen, Christopher Plummer.
01:33:11.980 He was in the original Doctor Who series.
01:33:15.460 I mean, the guy has just been, it's weird, you know, probably for him.
01:33:24.940 You know, he had a good thing going for him,
01:33:26.540 and then this guy comes along, and he's like,
01:33:28.100 oh, geez, do you have to have my same name?
01:33:29.660 Last hour, we were talking about the cities in the urban districts that have the worst scores now in America,
01:33:42.340 and if you look at the top 30 scores, the percentage of eighth graders, here they are.
01:33:52.800 Number one, Charlotte with 41% in math.
01:33:57.860 Austin, 38%.
01:33:59.980 San Diego, 36%.
01:34:01.660 These are eighth graders who are proficient in math.
01:34:04.200 Boston, number four, with 33.
01:34:07.380 Guilford County, 31.
01:34:09.080 Hillsborough County, Florida, 29.
01:34:11.620 New York City, 28.
01:34:13.600 Chicago, 27.
01:34:15.040 Denver, 26.
01:34:16.100 Clark County, 25.
01:34:17.820 Jefferson County, 25.
01:34:19.660 Duval County, 25.
01:34:21.560 Miami-Dade, 24.
01:34:23.060 Houston, 24.
01:34:24.960 Albuquerque, 22.
01:34:26.320 Los Angeles, 20.
01:34:28.060 D.C., 20.
01:34:29.420 Dallas, 20.
01:34:30.600 Atlanta, 19.
01:34:31.720 Fort Worth, 19.
01:34:32.920 Philadelphia, 16.
01:34:35.240 Shelby County, 12.
01:34:37.060 Milwaukee, 12.
01:34:38.200 Cleveland, 11.
01:34:39.300 Baltimore City, 11.
01:34:40.860 Fresno, 11.
01:34:41.860 Detroit, 5.
01:34:44.600 5% are proficient in math.
01:34:48.800 This, to me, is in some ways kind of along the lines of what Kanye was talking about.
01:34:55.280 People are being enslaved.
01:34:57.540 Doesn't matter what color you are, but you are being enslaved.
01:35:00.620 If you only have 5% of the 8th graders that are proficient in math, they have no future.
01:35:07.440 They have no future.
01:35:09.960 The best one is Charlotte with 41%, which is really terrible.
01:35:14.740 Well, the only way to solve this is to lower the standards.
01:35:18.340 That's what winds up happening.
01:35:19.880 It is.
01:35:20.220 Well, you don't need to.
01:35:21.220 Proficient in math doesn't mean addition.
01:35:23.100 Try this.
01:35:23.620 Try this for reading.
01:35:24.520 Try this for reading.
01:35:25.720 Austin, number one, with 36%.
01:35:28.300 San Diego, 35.
01:35:30.880 Hillsborough, 34.
01:35:31.960 Boston, 32.
01:35:32.920 Duval County, 31.
01:35:34.300 Jefferson County, 30.
01:35:36.320 Guilford County, 30.
01:35:37.540 Miami-Dade, 30.
01:35:38.640 Charlotte, 30.
01:35:39.460 Denver, 29.
01:35:40.360 New York City, 28.
01:35:41.540 Clark County, 27.
01:35:42.780 Chicago, 27.
01:35:44.480 Albuquerque, 25.
01:35:46.000 A quarter.
01:35:47.320 A quarter of 8th graders can read.
01:35:53.020 Only a quarter.
01:35:54.020 Only a quarter can read.
01:35:56.360 Los Angeles, 23.
01:35:58.140 District of Columbia, 21.
01:35:59.820 You think you're not going to be a slave to somebody?
01:36:03.320 You are a slave to the system.
01:36:05.280 If you can't read, and if you try to get your kids to read, old classics are not fast enough because they're used to things happening so fast, so rapidly, that you try to get your kids to read an old book and they're too slow.
01:36:22.980 I, look, I'm, you know, I can't read, largely, can't read nonfiction, or fiction.
01:36:29.060 I can't, I can't be bothered with it.
01:36:30.880 Some of the greatest joys of my life.
01:36:32.480 And they're great books.
01:36:33.920 We've had tons of great authors that write amazing stories.
01:36:37.560 And I just, you know, for fiction, I'm not willing to stick around.
01:36:41.620 For nonfiction, I'll stick around and read long books because I want to know the information.
01:36:46.060 I want to understand the arguments.
01:36:47.500 I mean, I like that stuff.
01:36:48.720 But if you can't read, you don't have that choice.
01:36:51.960 Yeah, you don't even have the choice.
01:36:53.100 You don't have the choice.
01:36:53.820 How can you, how can anybody, you know, Kanye can say, hey, I just found Thomas Sowell.
01:36:59.300 Who's going to read him?
01:37:00.220 No.
01:37:01.000 He's talking to a group of people that are never going to read him.
01:37:03.580 And it's how you get sucked into arguments like AIDS was created by the government to kill off black people.
01:37:07.900 That's right.
01:37:08.880 We are enslaving ourself and it has nothing to do with color.
01:37:13.200 Glenn.
01:37:14.120 Back.
01:37:15.220 Mercury.
01:37:18.720 So I remember several years ago, Glenn was selling his house.
01:37:23.060 And here's the thing.
01:37:23.960 When you're with Glenn every day, you actually have to deal with it.
01:37:27.360 Like he gets off the air and he still keeps blabbing about all the problems he's having with his house.
01:37:31.340 It was agonizing.
01:37:32.860 You weren't there.
01:37:33.500 I was.
01:37:34.480 It wasn't fun.
01:37:36.000 Luckily, he actually took a positive step to correct this issue because he was having issues with his real estate agent at the time.
01:37:42.120 And he decided to create the company realestateagentsitrust.com.
01:37:45.320 And the idea was, hey, there's got to be a better way to sell a house than just depending on this person you barely know and not getting updates.
01:37:54.460 There's got to be great agents out there.
01:37:55.860 And there are.
01:37:57.080 But they are all hard to find.
01:38:00.100 And unless you have realestateagentsitrust.com, you might not be able to find the best one.
01:38:04.280 If you go there, they're going to give you a network of over 1,200 agents.
01:38:08.480 You can find the best one in your area really easily.
01:38:10.880 Go there if you're going to try to sell your house or buying a home.
01:38:14.900 Realestateagentsitrust.com.
01:38:16.020 Let these agents earn your business.
01:38:18.680 Realestateagentsitrust.com.
01:38:28.700 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:38:30.520 All right, let me tell you, let me tell you, you know, we were just talking about, you know, how schools, we're passing kids and dumping them into society without the ability to read or write or to think at all.
01:38:44.260 We're paying for that now.
01:38:46.460 And why aren't we fixing that?
01:38:48.540 When you have 40% of the kids in eighth grade tests not being able to do math or read, I'm sorry, only 40% being able to pass a test on math and reading, 60%, and that's a good number.
01:39:02.780 It's down to 5% in Detroit.
01:39:04.980 What do we do mean them do?
01:39:06.760 We try to argue about the, you know, the higher intellectual points of the Constitution.
01:39:12.700 They can't even read it.
01:39:14.520 Even people who do read and even like to read won't read the Constitution.
01:39:19.000 Yeah.
01:39:19.260 And people who can't read.
01:39:21.200 Right.
01:39:21.660 And obviously it's a huge percentage here.
01:39:23.140 We've been saying, hey, you know, we got to read this stuff.
01:39:25.440 We got to read it.
01:39:26.340 No, we have to teach our children how to read or they are all going to be slaves.
01:39:32.440 So we started something last year with Mercury One.
01:39:35.120 It's our leadership program.
01:39:37.060 It starts in just four weeks.
01:39:40.040 The first two-week session starts May 28th.
01:39:43.400 So at the end of this month, the second two-week session starts on June 11th.
01:39:47.320 And the third one on July 9th.
01:39:49.500 If you or someone you know between the ages of 18 and 25 with a passion for discovering
01:39:55.140 the truth and a desire to become a stronger leader, please share this with them.
01:40:01.020 It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience, a two-week journey of discovery, guest speakers, myself,
01:40:07.600 David and Tim Barton, others.
01:40:09.720 And you actually are engaged in projects and going through the actual documents and the
01:40:18.840 actual things.
01:40:19.820 We just got a piece in from Thomas Paine that is unbelievable.
01:40:24.480 It is his handwritten letter to Benjamin Franklin saying, no, that's not what I meant.
01:40:31.080 I'm not an atheist.
01:40:32.160 I do believe in God.
01:40:33.580 I am trying to make the case for the French.
01:40:36.580 Well, that turns history completely upside down.
01:40:40.980 One student that graduated last year, she wrote something.
01:40:45.480 What was it on?
01:40:48.260 It was, oh man, I can't remember now.
01:40:51.080 It was either on the New Deal or something, slavery.
01:40:55.040 I can't remember what it was.
01:40:56.100 I'll have to look it up and find out.
01:40:57.680 But she wrote a paper and the professor, she wrote it in college and she expected the professor
01:41:04.300 just to hammer her.
01:41:05.500 And the professor said, can I see you after class?
01:41:10.820 Yes.
01:41:11.560 He gave her an A and said, can I meet with you?
01:41:15.300 Because I don't know where these sources are.
01:41:18.060 How did you find these sources?
01:41:20.140 And she very wisely didn't mention my name or David Barton.
01:41:23.300 She said, here's where you can find them online.
01:41:26.160 She's been helping him learn about the truth.
01:41:30.400 He's a professor.
01:41:31.620 He didn't even know how to find these original documents.
01:41:34.340 So if you want to participate, there is a small charge and you have to pay for the hotel
01:41:42.040 and the food and everything.
01:41:43.040 But it's two weeks.
01:41:44.440 It is so well worth it.
01:41:46.400 Not everybody is going to be accepted.
01:41:48.420 You do have to apply and you will be interviewed for the position.
01:41:55.560 But it's happening again, May 28th.
01:41:58.880 Next session is July 11th.
01:42:01.260 And the final session is, sorry, June 11th.
01:42:03.860 And the final session is July 9th.
01:42:06.740 Apply now.
01:42:07.820 You can do it at mercuryone.org slash LTP.
01:42:13.440 Amazing.
01:42:14.280 Meeting these kids last year and then seeing them after two weeks and they were totally transformed.
01:42:19.960 It was astonishing.
01:42:22.080 Huge step up for your life.
01:42:24.160 Right.
01:42:24.280 I mean, because if you're if you're educated to this point, you bring back to, you know,
01:42:28.140 five percent of people can actually read and do math in some of these cities.
01:42:32.240 The advantage you have is is substantial.
01:42:35.780 Last year, we had like four or five teachers.
01:42:37.760 We had people that were teachers that said, I wanted to go back because they they knew they
01:42:43.180 were missing American history and they didn't know they didn't even know where to start.
01:42:46.760 So we had teachers come and we've heard from them saying it's remarkable how it has changed their
01:42:52.080 teaching and changed the people around them.
01:42:54.260 Yeah.
01:42:54.360 My uncle is a history teacher and he visited here.
01:42:57.540 This is not part of the program, but just, you know, we gave him the sort of little whatever
01:43:01.840 private tour there is of just basically walking around where all your your are, you know,
01:43:07.140 artifacts are strewn out all over the place.
01:43:09.320 And he was amazed, you know, I mean, just seeing some of the the just the artifacts that
01:43:14.660 that because it's one thing to learn about them.
01:43:16.980 It's one thing to for someone to tell you, hey, there was once a letter that Ben Franklin
01:43:21.520 that was written to Ben Franklin that explained X, Y and Z.
01:43:23.960 It's another thing to actually see it.
01:43:25.200 And when you read the actual words in their handwriting, it makes a real impact on you.
01:43:30.540 Standing there, we have a big book now of just letters from early signers of the Declaration
01:43:34.940 of Independence and early presidents and to see Jefferson writing to Adams and be able
01:43:41.080 to, you know, we have it in a bound, a bound book now.
01:43:45.980 So it's you can't really actually touch it, but to actually read the letter in their handwriting
01:43:52.440 and then turn the page and it's a letter from George Washington and read what they're
01:43:57.040 saying to each other.
01:43:58.400 It is profound.
01:43:59.840 By the way, we're doing that also the last class or the second class.
01:44:05.160 I think the second session, June 11th, I think they're actually helping prepare the museum
01:44:10.920 because we were having the museum.
01:44:15.000 You'll have to check it.
01:44:17.000 Mercury one.
01:44:17.900 Just look for the museum.
01:44:18.980 But we're doing a really great museum this year.
01:44:21.880 It's only open for three days and you'll be able to do what what Stu's relative did and
01:44:27.680 walk around, but in a in a really amazing way.
01:44:30.560 All of the studios here in Dallas, Texas.
01:44:32.640 You can go to mercury one dot org and find out more.
01:44:35.760 It's the these rates of how people are reading and are proficient in math being so low is
01:44:42.160 part of the reason why something like a Prager University does really well.
01:44:45.560 Yes.
01:44:45.920 And that's not because they're dumbed down at all.
01:44:47.660 They're very smart pieces, but they explain them easy.
01:44:50.200 They make them they explain them in an easy way.
01:44:52.020 And I also think it's part of the reason why the Kanye West thing is more important
01:44:57.040 than, you know, a bunch of album promotion from from the sky because it's communicating
01:45:03.100 to people who might not be in that five percent right there.
01:45:06.200 It's communicating to the entire country.
01:45:08.760 You know, certainly a lot of smart people like Kanye West, but a lot of dumb people like
01:45:12.240 Kanye West, too.
01:45:13.680 Not a lot of dumb people are reading the Constitution.
01:45:15.920 So the fact that, you know, the ideas of Thomas Sowell could be introduced to an audience
01:45:21.420 that could be really receptive to them, you know, I mean, especially when you're talking
01:45:26.080 about communities that have been downtrodden for a long time, the ideas of Thomas Sowell
01:45:29.640 could cure it.
01:45:30.780 Just someone saying you don't have to be a Democrat.
01:45:34.680 There are other ideas out there.
01:45:36.340 I'm not saying I like the Republicans, but you don't have to be a Democrat.
01:45:39.760 You don't even have to be a Republican.
01:45:41.480 Just think for yourself.
01:45:43.800 That's remarkable.
01:45:44.940 Anybody who's like, I'm not talking about Kanye West, I understand that because it doesn't
01:45:51.400 have any meaning to the political movement, per se.
01:45:55.720 If you're like, I want more constitutional rule of law, but it does to the culture and
01:46:00.760 culture leads.
01:46:02.620 And here's a guy who can change the culture, even if it's just record promotion.
01:46:08.300 It is making an impact.
01:46:10.440 I mean, look at, you know, and that this stuff just needs to be said at that basic level.
01:46:14.400 You know, do you consider Russia under Vladimir Putin to be a healthy society?
01:46:20.460 I mean, I would argue no.
01:46:22.500 I would argue no.
01:46:23.520 Yet he's getting far lower percentage of the vote from the Russian people than African-Americans
01:46:30.000 are giving to Democrats.
01:46:31.180 It's not even close.
01:46:32.300 Putin got something like 71 or 72 percent in that last election.
01:46:36.620 I mean, Al Gore, who is the whitest white guy in America, got 92 percent from African-Americans.
01:46:43.820 I mean, Barack Obama was even higher.
01:46:45.380 But I mean, at least you can kind of make an argument for that.
01:46:48.220 You know, this is the thing is like there has to be a breakout here.
01:46:50.800 And it's it's honestly why I think Kanye is right when he talks about slavery being a
01:46:56.620 choice.
01:46:56.940 I don't think it was a choice.
01:46:58.340 You know, I know it wasn't a choice back then.
01:47:00.320 No, but being a choice on freeing your mind today is Stephen A.
01:47:05.500 Smith made this point very well several years ago.
01:47:07.420 The sports commentator when he said, look there, they don't need you.
01:47:12.380 They don't.
01:47:13.100 They don't need you.
01:47:13.960 They don't care about you if you're African-American and you're the Democratic leadership because
01:47:18.320 they know they've got you already.
01:47:20.560 All they have to do is show up and you give them their vote.
01:47:23.960 And if you don't at least challenge that and listen to the other side, at least listen to
01:47:29.300 what they're to what they're saying and consider a bit consider it seriously and then go back
01:47:35.440 to the Democrats and say, you know what?
01:47:36.580 I like this part of what they're saying.
01:47:38.760 If you don't make those cases, they're they're never going to do a thing for you.
01:47:42.480 And it's it's it's something that needs to be done.
01:47:46.220 Well, it's amazing to me how many people immediately just shouted Kanye down when he said, look,
01:47:51.860 it was the Republicans that freed people.
01:47:54.760 Yeah, it wasn't the Democrats.
01:47:56.380 It was the Republicans.
01:47:57.860 Now, that doesn't last forever.
01:48:00.300 The Republicans have sold their soul to the devil back and forth, and so has the Democratic
01:48:04.380 Party back and forth many times.
01:48:05.860 But if you want to look where real racism, institutional racism has been for a very long time,
01:48:11.880 it is in the Democratic Party.
01:48:15.320 And I'm sorry, but look into Johnson.
01:48:19.240 I believe the Great Society, all of that stuff that he passed with the Civil Rights Act, he
01:48:24.000 passed the Civil Rights Act.
01:48:25.100 Then he passes the Great Society tonight at five o'clock on the blaze.
01:48:28.960 I'm going to give you the stats on what happened to the African-American community because of
01:48:33.820 the Great Society.
01:48:34.700 They were they had higher marriage rates than white people did.
01:48:39.380 They were higher as entrepreneurs than white people were.
01:48:44.160 What happened?
01:48:45.560 The Great Society and Johnson.
01:48:49.240 And people don't want to talk about that because it makes them uncomfortable or they haven't thought
01:48:54.760 about it.
01:48:55.340 But you have to.
01:48:56.640 If you want to learn from the past, you have to look at all of the things that are uncomfortable.
01:49:01.040 There's a lot of things that are uncomfortable.
01:49:02.960 Just Google first slave in America.
01:49:06.300 I can't tell you how many times you're going to how many stories you're going to have to
01:49:10.280 read through before you find the name John Kassar, C-A-S-O-R.
01:49:15.900 Well, who's that guy?
01:49:18.340 John Kassar was actually the first slave in America.
01:49:24.120 Indentured servitude was something that people did.
01:49:28.020 Not slavery, indentured servitude.
01:49:31.160 They still do it in some countries.
01:49:33.040 And what it means is, you know, I want to go to the new world.
01:49:36.820 I want to start a new life, but I don't have the money.
01:49:39.340 So I go to some big, you know, rich guy who I know has work over there.
01:49:45.940 And I say to him, look, if you pay my room and board to get over there, I'll work to pay
01:49:51.300 it off in seven years.
01:49:52.640 I'll be an indentured servant, which means he owns your work.
01:49:57.160 He doesn't own you.
01:49:58.580 He owns your work for seven years.
01:50:01.340 This is the contract.
01:50:02.900 And you get your way over there to the new world.
01:50:06.620 Well, that was happening all the time.
01:50:09.400 And it wasn't looked down upon.
01:50:10.980 No, it wasn't the same way.
01:50:12.020 Slavery.
01:50:12.600 No, no, no.
01:50:13.380 It wasn't.
01:50:14.380 And white people did it.
01:50:16.560 Everybody did it.
01:50:17.560 Indians did it.
01:50:19.220 Everyone did it.
01:50:20.300 Um, and, um, and then we started the, the, um, American slave trade, the English and
01:50:28.180 the Dutch did, and they started bringing people to the Caribbean.
01:50:32.280 And when they went to the Caribbean, you were made a slave.
01:50:35.900 But if you were dropped off here in America, you were an indentured servant.
01:50:41.220 So one of the guys, and he was a white guy, uh, I'm sorry.
01:50:44.920 He was a black guy.
01:50:46.100 He was an indentured servant and his name was John Kasser.
01:50:49.540 And he worked for, uh, uh, another guy who held his indentured servitude contract.
01:50:57.220 Uh, and John had worked for seven years, but I don't know how it worked out, but he didn't
01:51:03.060 say, you know, my seven years are up.
01:51:06.440 So his owner of the contract took him to court and said, no, I own him, not the contract.
01:51:13.660 I own him for life.
01:51:16.020 The rest of the story changes everything.
01:51:19.660 And it's not just the fact that that owner was a black man, but what happened after that
01:51:28.460 black man's death, after he started slavery in America, everything changed.
01:51:35.860 And I'll talk, talk about it tonight at five o'clock.
01:51:40.100 Big news.
01:51:41.300 Last couple of weeks, simply safe won the editor's choice awards from CNET magazine and PC magazine
01:51:46.660 and, uh, the wire cutter.
01:51:48.360 And, you know, they were thrilled and we're thrilled that they're finally getting the,
01:51:52.200 uh, the notice that they are due.
01:51:54.080 You know, they have, uh, they've gone and really changed people's lives.
01:51:59.560 The way, the way security works.
01:52:01.360 I mean, it was really cutting edge stuff, uh, when they started and they're still way
01:52:05.240 ahead of everyone else, but they took a great leap.
01:52:08.200 You know, they were going up against, you know, people like Wells Fargo and we provide
01:52:11.620 all this, you know, we're going to bring in and we're wiring everything.
01:52:14.460 They said, you don't need all that.
01:52:16.420 You don't need to pay 50 bucks a month and you don't need to have somebody traipsing through
01:52:20.780 your house.
01:52:22.660 Simply safe.
01:52:23.340 We're going to make it really simple.

01:52:29.740 You have the cameras, you have the, uh, the, um, uh, what do you call it?
01:52:34.980 The, the things that you put on the windows and the doors, you have the keypad, all of
01:52:38.860 it, but you can install it in like a half an hour and there's no contract.
01:52:42.940 You own it.

01:53:20.620 Mercury.
01:53:21.060 You know, I found that things kind of make sense a little bit more when, uh, you know,
01:53:43.000 if you're drinking and I gave up all of those great blackouts, you know?
01:53:47.120 Yeah.
01:53:49.380 There's so many great positives to alcoholic consumption at levels that are inhuman.
01:53:54.960 That's, I think something we've overlooked on the program today.
01:53:58.040 Yeah.
01:53:59.640 For instance, let me try this.
01:54:00.620 This just came out from USA today.
01:54:02.680 I think it makes more sense.
01:54:05.580 If you read it this way, the, uh, boys house of America double down, uh, today on its quest
01:54:15.040 to become the scouting organization of choice for boys and girls, how they call the boy scouts,
01:54:25.300 but they're going to, they announced today that they're going to drop the boy from boy scouts.
01:54:32.040 They're going to drop the day boy from boy scouts from the, just, uh, their, uh, their, uh, signature program.
01:54:39.080 Um, so they won't use boys in this signature program.
01:54:43.980 And now the chief scout executive, uh, Mike Sutterbar also unveiled the new group.
01:54:51.660 The group's new scouting in marketing campaign program to include, uh, inclusiveness, inclusive, inclusive, inclusive togetherness.
01:55:03.000 Scout me in, scout me in, because we've entered a new era for our organization.
01:55:09.800 And it's important that all you can see themselves in scouting in every way possible possible.
01:55:17.800 Did you burp in the middle of possible?
01:55:20.600 I am here to tell you the scouting news that makes sense.
01:55:27.080 Glenn Beck, Mercury.
01:55:33.000 Thank you.
01:55:53.800 How's it going?
