00:00:00.000 American Financing is our sponsor, and I want to talk to you about calling them today,
00:00:05.280 because if you're paying over 4% on your mortgage, you're overpaying, or the credit card debt.
00:00:11.720 If you have any equity in your home, you can refi right now and take the money out
00:00:17.360 from the mortgage and actually pay those loans off, or you can just roll all of that credit
00:00:24.540 card debt into your home mortgage, which then has you pay them off immediately,
00:00:30.600 and you're only on the hook with the bank, and a mortgage rate less than 4%.
00:00:35.520 You're going to be able to pay it all off a lot faster.
00:00:38.900 Save yourself hundreds of dollars every single month, maybe as much as $1,000 a month,
00:00:44.000 by calling American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to AmericanFinancing.net.
00:00:52.420 All right, the radio broadcast begins in a minute.
00:00:55.760 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:23.020 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:29.680 I have to tell you, the only thing that is running through my mind today is what my mother
00:01:34.340 used to tell me all the time when I was in a mood like this.
00:01:37.680 Son, check yourself before you wreck yourself.
00:01:42.320 And I was like, that's good, Mom.
00:01:44.720 I've got to write that down for 40 years in the future.
00:01:47.600 Anyway, not in really a good mood because our USA Olympic team lost.
00:01:56.360 Not just one, but two lost.
00:02:02.540 Wait, wait, either I care about that or it's that I didn't watch it at all,
00:02:10.440 and I'm actually kind of glad, strangely, that our USA Olympic team is losing.
00:02:16.560 I, hang on, I'm confused.
00:02:18.480 See, this is what my mother said.
00:02:19.920 I'm wrecking myself because I didn't check myself.
00:02:22.820 Oh, my.
00:02:24.780 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:26.380 Hey, masks are coming back in style.
00:02:28.080 We're very excited about that.
00:02:29.840 We'll tell you about it coming up in just a minute.
00:02:31.640 Debra lives in Massachusetts.
00:02:33.140 She writes to talk about her experience with Relief Factor.
00:02:36.540 She said, Glenn, I just started taking Relief Factor four days ago.
00:02:39.680 Guess what?
00:02:42.640 I don't know what.
00:02:44.060 My hip pain, which I've been living with for years, is totally gone.
00:02:47.620 I used to have a horrible time even sleeping because of the pain,
00:02:50.800 but all of it is gone now.
00:02:52.340 I love how I'm feeling these days.
00:02:54.220 Debra, thank you.
00:02:54.960 Thank you for trying Relief Factor.
00:02:57.380 I'm so glad you're one of the 70% where it actually works.
00:03:01.300 Thanks for writing in as well.
00:03:03.020 And four days?
00:03:04.600 Shut up.
00:03:05.820 Didn't work that quickly for me.
00:03:07.620 It honestly took me about two months.
00:03:10.340 I felt the difference in 30 days.
00:03:13.480 In three weeks, I felt a difference.
00:03:16.040 I stopped because I was denying it.
00:03:17.940 I was like, no, it's not working for me.
00:03:20.440 And then I stopped taking it.
00:03:21.520 And they were like, ow, ow, ow.
00:03:23.700 Yes, it is.
00:03:25.260 But it really changed my life.
00:03:28.360 And it can change your life as well.
00:03:30.180 If you're living in pain, just give Relief Factor a try, like Debra did.
00:03:35.400 Relief Factor, not a drug developed by doctors, and 70% of the people try it, go on to order more.
00:03:41.040 So go to relieffactor.com.
00:03:42.440 Call 800-500-8384.
00:03:45.060 800-500-8384.
00:03:46.720 It's relieffactor.com.
00:03:48.440 Oh, man, Stu.
00:03:55.660 I'm going to talk to you about the Olympics soon, but not right now.
00:03:59.960 Not right now.
00:04:00.820 We have bigger fish to fry.
00:04:01.580 Hold me back.
00:04:02.320 Yeah, just.
00:04:03.300 Wow.
00:04:03.800 I'm passionate about that.
00:04:05.420 Aren't you?
00:04:06.040 Oh, me too.
00:04:06.700 Gosh, I watched either all of it or none of it.
00:04:10.820 Guess which one?
00:04:12.640 Here's a story I want to just start with because it's Monday.
00:04:17.320 And I think we start with some good news.
00:04:19.640 Equality is finally here.
00:04:22.180 And women, you have to love these progressives because they've done so much for you already.
00:04:28.240 And yet they keep doing more.
00:04:31.180 The Senate Armed Service Committee has approved language change in the National Defense Authorization Act, which will expand the selective service to a new requirement under the threat of imprisonment for 18-year-old males to submit their names to the National Registry, potential military constrictions.
00:04:55.220 Now, women have to do it, too.
00:04:57.920 So, let me just go down this list, okay?
00:05:01.980 You lost girls' sports.
00:05:03.880 I can't say it that way.
00:05:05.880 You gained the right for boys to play girls' sports so your daughters just can never win.
00:05:16.380 And congratulations on that victory.
00:05:18.260 I think that's a very – don't you, Stu?
00:05:19.820 Wow, that's incredible.
00:05:20.880 Yes.
00:05:21.120 That's a great victory.
00:05:22.180 I think that's one that women have been fighting for for a very long time.
00:05:25.680 You also have had the term mother finally has been replaced with birthing people.
00:05:35.140 Ah, yes.
00:05:35.980 Yes.
00:05:36.540 Wow.
00:05:37.020 And I think, again, another big victory for women all around the world, birthing people.
00:05:43.200 Me, too, has pretty much made the cry of rape into kind of like a car alarm that nobody pays attention to, which I think is another great thing.
00:05:57.000 Achievements.
00:05:57.900 Yes.
00:05:58.280 And now, women, you can finally go to war and be drafted into war, which, if I've heard women once, I've heard it a million times, where they're like, you know where we really need to focus?
00:06:17.120 Going to war.
00:06:18.560 Yes.
00:06:19.040 Yes.
00:06:19.420 That's right.
00:06:19.900 They always say that.
00:06:20.800 Yes, they do.
00:06:21.660 They always do.
00:06:22.240 They always want to be shot at.
00:06:23.660 Congratulate.
00:06:24.560 Wait a minute, what?
00:06:25.220 They always want to be shot at.
00:06:26.560 And I think it's, well, that's saved for the African-Americans in their own communities.
00:06:31.380 Oh, that's right.
00:06:31.960 You know, now getting rid of all of the police.
00:06:34.000 And again, African-Americans.
00:06:35.840 Who needs police to stop that?
00:06:37.000 The progressives are serving you like crazy.
00:06:40.880 It's going well.
00:06:41.840 Isn't it?
00:06:42.360 It's going really well.
00:06:43.680 It is.
00:06:43.900 It is.
00:06:44.560 Especially for all those things that you've really wanted.
00:06:47.060 For instance, let's just talk about the COVID vaccine for a minute.
00:06:50.460 You know, we know that there are people, there are crazy, crazy people that are not getting
00:06:57.040 the vaccine.
00:06:57.940 Crazy people.
00:06:58.920 Dangerous.
00:06:59.800 Okay.
00:07:00.720 These people that won't do it.
00:07:04.400 Red hats.
00:07:05.420 They're always wearing red hats.
00:07:07.160 Unfortunately, it's not the red hat thing.
00:07:09.120 No?
00:07:09.220 It's not.
00:07:09.720 No.
00:07:10.020 From the South, though.
00:07:10.780 They're all from the South.
00:07:11.760 No, no, no, no, no.
00:07:12.600 It's mainly the Hispanic and African-American community.
00:07:16.940 Now, let me ask you a question here, Stu.
00:07:20.120 If you're an African-American and you've been being taught that white people are trying to
00:07:26.860 kill you and that it's a systemic racism, so the system is trying to kill you and keep
00:07:34.200 you down.
00:07:34.940 Right.
00:07:35.600 And the president reminds you of the Tuskegee Institute and you're constantly being force
00:07:44.140 fed.
00:07:45.240 You can't make it.
00:07:46.080 White people hate you.
00:07:48.300 How likely are you, especially when they're saying it's Trump people and the head doctor
00:07:55.720 who's really pushing all of this stuff was with the Trump administration, still with the
00:08:01.180 Biden administration.
00:08:02.340 How likely are you to run out and get your vaccine?
00:08:06.680 I love this because the NFL is in the middle of this controversy now where they've implemented
00:08:10.840 pretty strict rules on whether your players have vaccines or not.
00:08:15.420 You could lose games.
00:08:16.320 You could lose millions of dollars in salary.
00:08:18.080 All these pressures are now coming on these players.
00:08:20.100 And a few of them are stepping up and saying, look, I don't want to take the vaccine.
00:08:23.400 I'll sit out.
00:08:24.480 DeAndre Hopkins, one of the best wide receivers in the NFL.
00:08:27.560 You should save this for when Jason Whitlock.
00:08:31.860 Jason Whitlock.
00:08:32.480 It's on.
00:08:33.060 Yes.
00:08:33.300 I'm sure he'll go into it.
00:08:34.520 Yeah.
00:08:34.700 But just to give a quick background.
00:08:36.340 Yeah.
00:08:36.380 Yeah.
00:08:36.840 And what's funny about it is like you look at the populations of people.
00:08:42.800 And as you point out, African-Americans are the number one racial group that do not want
00:08:47.740 to get vaccinated.
00:08:48.600 Hispanics are number two.
00:08:50.560 And you'd think this would click with the mainstream media.
00:08:55.020 You have been telling African-Americans basically that this government and this society has them
00:09:01.800 at the opposite end of a gun in which white people are just on the other side itching to
00:09:07.840 pull the trigger if they can just get away with it.
00:09:10.000 All they need to do, if they could just find a way to escape the charges, they would kill
00:09:15.360 every African-American in this country.
00:09:18.020 Amen.
00:09:18.340 They hate them so much.
00:09:19.900 Yes.
00:09:20.480 Sure.
00:09:20.940 By the way, take this new vaccine we came up with.
00:09:23.920 Like, what do you think they're going to say?
00:09:27.360 You have washed this entire population, marinated them in this idea that every white person in
00:09:37.260 the world is out to kill them if we're driving down the street to the extent that in the
00:09:45.300 middle of a pandemic, you told us it was more of a public health threat of police-based
00:09:52.260 racism, a government representative that was so racist they just wanted to kill you.
00:09:57.620 That was a bigger threat than the actual pandemic.
00:10:01.360 So why on earth would an African-American want to take your vaccine?
00:10:05.600 Again, I'm a fan of the vaccines.
00:10:08.500 I think people should get them in almost all circumstances.
00:10:12.340 That being said, would you be convinced of this?
00:10:15.180 If your news feed was constantly, nonstop, police are killing black people, the Trump
00:10:22.000 administration was the most evil racist organization in modern history.
00:10:27.080 Screw Hitler.
00:10:27.680 He was nothing.
00:10:28.480 We're talking Donald Trump here.
00:10:29.980 By the way, the guy who is the face of the response to COVID when Donald Trump was president
00:10:35.920 is now the face of the vaccine.
00:10:37.680 He's going to go on television 900 times a day and tell you to take it.
00:10:40.460 So wait a minute.
00:10:40.900 Are you saying that, let me just use a moment from history.
00:10:44.700 Are you saying that Native Americans, while they were being round up by the Democratic
00:10:52.460 president and Andrew Johnson, that if Andrew Johnson would have said, or Jackson would have
00:10:59.140 said, you need to get a vaccine before you go out.
00:11:03.280 Are you saying that the Native Americans wouldn't have trusted him?
00:11:05.940 Another example.
00:11:06.800 Let's say, let's say you're FDR and you're rounding up all the Japanese.
00:11:12.840 And before you go, Japanese people, you you should be you should get a vaccination.
00:11:18.980 Are you saying that the Japanese shouldn't trust FDR?
00:11:23.320 They may be a tad skeptical.
00:11:24.860 OK, one more.
00:11:25.460 One more example.
00:11:26.300 OK, let's say you're President Biden and everything that your party has done since the beginning
00:11:33.780 of time was keeping people in chains or when that finally was was abolished because, you
00:11:42.400 know, a bunch of people from the north came down and killed a bunch of people that were
00:11:45.920 Democrats and they stopped it.
00:11:48.500 And then you went into reconstruction, started the Klan, everything else.
00:11:51.760 Then you were, you know, you know, part of resegregating the military, making sure that Jim Crow laws
00:11:59.240 were passed.
00:12:00.020 Then you had the Great Society, which has destroyed the black family.
00:12:04.400 Then you had a guy who was the president who had there was better job and better employment
00:12:08.740 and better employment numbers far as incomes go as well for black and Hispanics.
00:12:15.820 And then you came in and you reversed all that.
00:12:19.020 Are you saying that those people might might come under suspicion?
00:12:25.640 Yeah, it's it's a shocking idea.
00:12:28.180 That is weird.
00:12:29.140 And look, I'm a I'm a tad skeptical of the look.
00:12:32.960 They know about the Tuskegee experiments.
00:12:35.400 Well, first of all, you know about the Tuskegee experiments because what you've told them about
00:12:39.020 it, right?
00:12:39.580 The history of this has been completely manipulated.
00:12:41.840 Was it a good medical experiment?
00:12:43.460 No, I will say no on that.
00:12:45.220 However, did they inject them with vaccines to give them to illness?
00:12:48.620 No, even though everyone seems to think that.
00:12:50.920 Did they inject them with syphilis to give them syphilis?
00:12:54.100 No, even though people seem to think that that what they didn't do was give them treatment
00:12:59.960 for syphilis when they could have cured it.
00:13:02.600 They wanted to see how how this would progress if untreated.
00:13:06.860 A terrible idea, by the way, a terrible experiment run by a head physician who was black and a
00:13:12.960 head nurse who was black.
00:13:14.940 Hang on.
00:13:15.740 Mm hmm.
00:13:17.140 I don't know about those two, but I can guarantee you it was a progressive that was behind this
00:13:22.840 idea.
00:13:23.460 I'm sure.
00:13:24.000 Let's not blame it on the black doctor.
00:13:26.960 Let's let's let's let's be serious here.
00:13:29.060 It was a progressive that was like, hey, what happens if we just let him fester?
00:13:34.220 That does sound like a progressive idea.
00:13:36.900 The bottom line is, though, like, why would you need to go to the Tuskegee experiment?
00:13:42.700 There's no 24 year old NFL player that's like, I just I mean, those Tuskegee experiments.
00:13:47.700 They're talking about how you're saying right now there's a genocide going on of black people.
00:13:53.180 That's what they're worried about.
00:13:54.680 You are telling them that every other second a black person gets pulled over and shot for
00:14:00.060 no reason in broad daylight.
00:14:02.180 And no one does anything about it.
00:14:04.160 Would you trust that organization to help you?
00:14:06.660 Well, only if I was also told that it was systemic in the government and there was no way of stopping
00:14:13.800 it. The people who are all white, they don't even know they're they're killing people right there.
00:14:19.820 They're persecuting black people.
00:14:22.440 Then I might be then I might be a little hesitant.
00:14:25.700 Even the people you used to think were your friends that are absolutely not racist.
00:14:31.100 Now you're supposed to think they are racist and actually are out to get you with a system that is crushing your
00:14:37.560 souls. But trust that system for your medical care, except I mean, you're supposed to trust you're
00:14:43.700 you're not supposed to trust any white people because all white people are guilty, except for the white
00:14:48.340 people who are in the administration.
00:14:50.700 That's true. The people who wrote the books about this are usually and they are and they are very
00:14:56.860 trustworthy. Again, African-Americans, all of this, you have the Democrats to thank just like women.
00:15:04.840 Congratulations. You can now be forced to go fight a war.
00:15:08.800 I think a lot of progress is being made.
00:15:12.340 Battle for our age is taking place in our minds and our hearts of our nation.
00:15:15.700 Children today, all across America, millions of kids are having their ideology shaped by soulless
00:15:21.420 machines of both Hollywood and our own public schools from the lessons they're taught to the
00:15:26.960 books they're told they ought to read.
00:15:28.520 Our kids are caught in a thick swamp of bad ideas.
00:15:32.080 Wait until I tell you the latest of what's happening in our schools.
00:15:35.700 They don't care. These teachers don't care.
00:15:39.360 They just they're just doing it anyway.
00:15:42.180 The best way to combat ideas is to promote good ones.
00:15:46.120 Don't silence voices. Give them something to hang their hat on.
00:15:50.140 The Tuttle Twins books are an exploration of the things that make us a freer, more perfect union.

00:16:47.560 Oh, damn it.
00:16:48.840 Just realize even white babies are racist.
00:16:52.300 They are.
00:16:52.840 That's right.
00:16:53.500 From birth.
00:16:54.960 Yeah, I just read that book and man, I'm it's really kind of wrecked my weekend.
00:16:59.760 Anti-racist baby.
00:17:00.660 Was it that one?
00:17:01.360 Yeah, because that one is more about teaching your baby to be anti-racist so that we can lock in this this grift for for Ibram X.
00:17:11.440 Kendi for children who grow up as babies for 20, 30 years, 40 years from now.
00:17:16.960 He could still be raking in the cash.
00:17:18.420 It'll be great.
00:17:19.160 It'll be great.
00:17:19.680 So Team USA falls to France.
00:17:25.520 It's the first Olympic men's basketball loss since 2004.
00:17:30.360 We lost to France.
00:17:33.240 France.
00:17:34.100 Yeah.
00:17:34.440 Like just to say again, France.
00:17:37.900 It's amazing how these guys who spent all this time telling us what a terrible country we have are not representing the flag the way we'd want.
00:17:46.060 What a weird thing.
00:17:47.640 I am I'm I for one am surprised that these NBA players who have been constantly basically lighting up the country and telling us how terrible it's been for the past five years would not be able to perform in this patriotic ceremony.
00:18:04.720 It's a stunner.
00:18:05.900 Well, here's one of the one of the problems, Stu.
00:18:09.600 They were very tired from being so woke.
00:18:12.180 They're woke all the time.
00:18:13.160 When do they sleep?
00:18:14.280 When do they sleep?
00:18:15.360 That's a good point.
00:18:15.820 When do they need your sleep and you can't have it anymore?
00:18:18.000 You need to be woke.
00:18:18.680 You're woke all the time.
00:18:20.820 And I think it's I think it's great.
00:18:23.280 Also, you know, last week, the women's softball team lost first.
00:18:30.700 I'm sincerely hoping it's not the last.
00:18:32.820 May I ask, were you old enough to remember the Olympics when we had the evil empire of the Russians to root against?
00:18:40.920 Yeah.
00:18:42.280 Loosely.
00:18:42.780 Yeah.
00:18:42.880 I kind of feel that way where I don't really follow it.
00:18:48.080 I didn't really follow it.
00:18:49.220 Then I just the only time I would follow it was like to root against, you know, the Soviets.
00:18:55.080 And I'd be like, yeah.
00:18:56.360 And now, you know, when the when the volleyball team loses, I'm kind of like, yeah.
00:19:01.340 Oh, wait a minute.
00:19:02.040 What am I doing?
00:19:03.120 You know what I mean?
00:19:04.180 I'm almost rooting not against America, but against the frauds who say they represent America.
00:19:11.140 Yeah, I could see how that would inch into your thinking, especially with people like you like the NBA players who have spent the volleyball team.
00:19:19.220 I don't I don't know anything about the volleyball team.
00:19:21.520 What's her name?
00:19:22.220 The lesbian with the purple hair.
00:19:24.240 She's soccer, isn't she?
00:19:25.520 Oh, yeah.
00:19:25.800 That's what I mean.
00:19:26.320 Not volleyball, soccer, soccer, soccer, soccer team.
00:19:28.520 Yes.
00:19:28.700 OK, yes.
00:19:29.160 I can see that.
00:19:29.800 I don't know my sports.
00:19:30.700 I know what it was involving around ball.
00:19:32.420 That's it.
00:19:32.840 And you nailed that part.
00:19:33.680 I did.
00:19:34.280 I will say thank you.
00:19:35.200 I root against I always root against the U.S.
00:19:37.220 soccer team, both male and female, always.
00:19:39.560 And I've done that forever, mainly because I don't want it to become more popular and covered more.
00:19:44.720 You know, it's going to.
00:19:45.300 So I want the I want the I want the U.S. to be the embarrassment of the world when it comes to soccer, because soccer is so terrible.
00:19:51.360 But this is just added fuel to the fire.
00:19:53.560 And I don't say I, you know, I was I do remember growing up, you know, watching like the dream team.
00:19:57.620 You know what I mean?
00:19:58.080 Like when the when the NBA players were dominant, it was so much fun to watch.
00:20:01.620 I love those guys.
00:20:02.840 You now look at it and it's just it's just tough to care.
00:20:06.120 They do everything they can to make me not care about their sport.
00:20:09.980 Everything they can.
00:20:11.400 And I love sports.
00:20:12.400 You know, Glenn, and I'm not I'm not a boycotter at all.
00:20:14.540 I know.
00:20:14.880 Like, I don't know.
00:20:15.380 I'm against that.
00:20:16.360 You'd watch.
00:20:17.020 Yeah.
00:20:17.180 You'd watch the devil himself if he was playing.
00:20:19.720 Yeah.
00:20:20.060 Because I love that.
00:20:21.160 Look, if if he's beating LeBron, Stu is there.
00:20:24.040 He's wearing I'm with Satan, the T-shirt he's wearing.
00:20:27.320 He's buying it.
00:20:27.940 I'm pretty, especially if he's playing for the Philadelphia Eagles.
00:20:30.460 Yeah.
00:20:30.940 And that would be the time team to sign him.
00:20:32.940 We all realize that the Eagles would sign saying, sure, but if they did, I probably I mean,
00:20:38.400 I don't want to say that.
00:20:39.700 I think I'm close to cheering him on.
00:20:41.820 I will say if like you think there might be some eternal ramifications for this particular
00:20:46.340 comedy line.
00:20:47.240 I thought this joke might be a little bit too expensive.
00:20:51.820 I thought by month eight in the fires of hell, I might regret it.
00:20:56.240 Yeah.
00:20:56.460 You're like, that shouldn't made that joke.
00:20:58.200 No, that joke went too far.
00:21:00.800 That went too far.
00:21:01.840 But look, which the Catholics were right about that whole purgatory thing should have been
00:21:05.940 Catholic, should have been Catholic.
00:21:10.620 But it is that it is that like I'll look past a lot of that.
00:21:14.140 But it's one thing to every era of sports has had people who disagree with you, who think
00:21:20.360 crazy, crazy things.
00:21:22.020 Go back in sports history.
00:21:23.040 You're going to find a million of them that believe all sorts of insane things.
00:21:26.100 This is like it's so propagated by the league itself.
00:21:34.040 It's it's the only thing you're allowed to say.
00:21:36.540 You're not even allowed to have the alternate opinion anymore.
00:21:40.160 You're not even allowed to say, you know what?
00:21:41.480 I think, you know, this is this was you know, I think Donald Trump did a good job or I think
00:21:46.060 maybe there isn't systemic racism.
00:21:48.240 I mean, look at, you know, Drew Brees is the ultimate example of this, a Hall of Fame
00:21:52.820 quarterback, one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game.
00:21:55.600 And he came out and basically said, like, yeah, I'm with you on all this, all the systemic
00:22:01.920 racism stuff.
00:22:02.760 Totally on board with all of it.
00:22:04.140 I just don't think you should kneel for the flag.
00:22:06.160 I had relatives who served in the military.
00:22:07.980 I just don't like that as a particular protest.
00:22:09.960 He was almost run out of the league.
00:22:11.320 I mean, they they he had to beg for forgiveness because he didn't want people disrespecting
00:22:19.580 the flag in the United States.
00:22:21.160 That's where we are right now.
00:22:23.100 More in a second.
00:22:31.160 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:22:33.740 American financing NMLS 1-82334 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org
00:22:40.000 Hey, Stu, I just want you to know, yes, I love the joke.
00:22:44.180 It counts.
00:22:45.120 No, I stopped.
00:22:46.500 No, I think he's right.
00:22:48.460 Just because you thought it, it's already.
00:22:50.240 Anyway, American financing.
00:22:52.220 I want you to look at the historically low interest rates we've been seeing.
00:22:56.280 It's it's not hard to think it'd be a good idea to give American financing a call for
00:22:59.920 a free mortgage review.
00:23:01.640 No obligation, no pressure, no upfront hidden fees.
00:23:05.500 Just a simple conversation about your loan and options that could fit you better.
00:23:09.360 Imagine walking it, walking away with a thousand bucks a month in savings.
00:23:13.680 And that's possible, especially if you do a consolidation loan and pay off those high
00:23:18.380 interest credit cards.
00:23:19.520 The market is in your favor when it comes to financing right now.
00:23:23.040 It might be the perfect time because this might not last very much longer.
00:23:29.300 Go to American Financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to AmericanFinancing.net.

00:24:06.980 and vacation for the last week.
00:24:10.100 Wow.
00:24:10.980 Wow.
00:24:11.540 World hasn't changed at all, has it?
00:24:13.260 No.
00:24:13.720 No.
00:24:14.360 Uh-uh.
00:24:14.720 Uh-uh.
00:24:15.460 We're thinking about the masks coming back.
00:24:17.520 Yeah.
00:24:18.040 We got that going for us.
00:24:19.060 Yeah.
00:24:19.260 In fact, as we were driving through St. Louis, they were reinstituting the mandate.
00:24:23.540 Yeah.
00:24:23.840 Did you put yours on?
00:24:25.160 I did not.
00:24:25.660 You did not.
00:24:26.440 No.
00:24:26.640 I did not.
00:24:27.060 Even though they were reinstituting it.
00:24:28.040 Even though they were reinstituting it.
00:24:29.040 Today, it's mandatory.
00:24:30.180 And we were on their freeways.
00:24:31.740 Wow.
00:24:31.980 We said, nope, I'm not doing it.
00:24:32.980 Not doing it.
00:24:33.660 Not doing it.
00:24:34.120 Wow.
00:24:34.540 You are a rebel living on the edge.
00:24:36.660 I am a scoffer.
00:24:37.100 How are the people of Missouri and in Illinois, because you were up in that area?
00:24:42.120 Yeah, I was.
00:24:42.660 How are they doing with the mask thing?
00:24:44.160 They're done with it.
00:24:44.820 They're done with the mask thing.
00:24:47.660 Really?
00:24:48.000 We went all over Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Iowa.
00:24:52.760 You know how to have a good time.
00:24:53.920 We do.
00:24:54.560 Yeah.
00:24:54.820 We do.
00:24:55.420 We saw more cornfields than you can shake a stick at.
00:24:58.780 And I've been shaking sticks at cornfields for quite a while.
00:25:02.220 Does it work?
00:25:02.700 No, it really is.
00:25:03.880 Not as much fun as advertised.
00:25:06.720 That's weird.
00:25:07.720 Yeah.
00:25:08.180 That's weird.
00:25:08.740 Yeah.
00:25:09.360 Nobody's wearing a mask.
00:25:10.420 Really?
00:25:10.880 Nobody.
00:25:11.440 A few waitresses, but that's it.
00:25:14.580 Usually in the restaurants, they weren't even wearing a mask.
00:25:17.040 But I will tell you the thing that is going on is the employee shortage at restaurants.
00:25:22.080 Oh, yeah.
00:25:22.740 Big time.
00:25:23.040 It is critical.
00:25:26.660 Many restaurants completely shut down because they can't get enough employees.
00:25:30.360 Which is crazy.
00:25:31.080 It's not because of COVID.
00:25:32.440 It's because they can't get the employee, which might be sort of related to COVID.
00:25:36.360 Might be.
00:25:36.760 Sort of related in a way.
00:25:39.100 I'm shaking my stick right now to see if that's what it is.
00:25:43.460 Keep shaking it.
00:25:44.640 Yeah.
00:25:45.120 Because I think it might.
00:25:46.040 I think it's on to something.
00:25:47.640 I'm not, but the stick is.
00:25:49.260 Yes.
00:25:49.540 So, you know, there's been a lot of stuff going on while you were away.
00:25:54.620 Don't know if you heard, but we're going to be relegated to the ether if we ask questions
00:26:04.920 now that the CDC or the White House doesn't want us to ask.
00:26:09.100 Yeah.
00:26:09.240 How dare you?
00:26:10.000 Yeah.
00:26:10.120 Why would you ask something like that?
00:26:11.780 Sure.
00:26:12.180 It happened the other day with Jen Psaki being asked a question she didn't really like.
00:26:17.400 Vaccination status is important.
00:26:20.420 They're vaccinated here in the White House Medical Unit for the most part.
00:26:24.400 Go ahead.
00:26:25.500 Kelly, I'm sorry.
00:26:26.220 I'll come to you next.
00:26:26.820 Two questions.
00:26:27.660 One, this administration has long claimed that you're trying to get the most transparent
00:26:30.960 history.
00:26:31.780 If that's the case, why won't you just release the number of breakthrough cases that you had
00:26:36.280 of vaccinated staffers?
00:26:37.500 Well, I think first we're in a very different place than we were six to seven months ago as
00:26:42.720 it relates to the virus.
00:26:44.160 And as many medical experts have said, inside and outside of the government, those who are
00:26:49.600 vaccinated are protected from serious illness.
00:26:52.640 Most are asymptomatic if they are individuals who are vaccinated who get the virus.
00:26:58.020 And, you know, we are in a different place in terms of the impact of individuals who may
00:27:02.800 have, as you said, breakthrough cases.
00:27:04.340 Why not just provide the number?
00:27:05.720 Are you trying to hide something?
00:27:06.920 No, but what is the, why do you need to have that information?
00:27:09.060 In case of transparency in the interest of the public, having a better understanding
00:27:13.640 Why do you need that information?
00:27:16.020 Well, first, there are the CDC tracks, and let me give you this information too.
00:27:20.340 And she goes on to answer questions that were not related to that one.
00:27:23.060 Right, but she doesn't like that question.
00:27:24.460 But she didn't like that question.
00:27:25.280 Why do they need that?
00:27:26.260 Why do they need that question under the Trump administration?
00:27:29.660 Yeah, right.
00:27:30.560 Yeah.
00:27:30.940 Why do any of us need any question answered by you?
00:27:34.340 Isn't that what we're supposed to do and then you answer them?
00:27:36.900 I thought that's how it worked.
00:27:38.760 What is our arrangement here?
00:27:41.280 You answer questions and I ask them.
00:27:44.080 Seems like you make $174,000 a year to answer the questions I ask.
00:27:48.200 And we should point out, she is our employee.
00:27:50.860 She is not like, people could look at that.
00:27:53.120 It's completely been flipped on its head.
00:27:54.240 Yeah, it's been, it's a position that's responsible to the public.
00:27:57.680 The press secretary is supposed to give us information.
00:28:00.160 It's not a campaign official, which is what they've become over the past couple decades.
00:28:04.760 That's for sure.
00:28:05.220 But I mean, she's supposed to, her job is to get information from the White House to
00:28:09.600 us.
00:28:10.260 It's not to defend President Biden.
00:28:13.240 It's not to ask why you need that information.
00:28:15.280 No.
00:28:15.720 No, because I just want it.
00:28:17.280 Yeah.
00:28:17.500 How about that?
00:28:18.260 How about that?
00:28:18.620 Plus it's my job to get it.
00:28:19.960 How about that?
00:28:22.500 Plus the American people want to know.
00:28:24.120 How about that?
00:28:28.300 Crazy.
00:28:28.980 It's just unbelievable what's going on now.
00:28:31.880 But like everything else, it's been completely flipped on its head.
00:28:35.440 And we apparently have no right to any information anymore.
00:28:38.620 It's almost as if everything is inside out and upside down.
00:28:43.720 Isn't it though?
00:28:44.800 Isn't it?
00:28:45.440 The goal was to create enough chaos to turn us upside down and inside out.
00:28:51.140 So you won't recognize anything.
00:28:53.780 It's absolutely happened.
00:28:54.980 It's absolutely happened.
00:28:56.520 And they've taken their mask off too.
00:28:58.800 They don't care anymore.
00:28:59.580 Well, they should put that mask back on because Fauci says they should put that mask back
00:29:03.720 on.
00:29:03.840 That's right.
00:29:04.480 That's right.
00:29:05.420 I am not as anti-mask as I thought I was.
00:29:08.520 Really?
00:29:08.900 Really?
00:29:09.340 Yeah.
00:29:09.760 I'm thinking about wearing my mask into stores and any place that says you have a mask.
00:29:14.720 I'm going to wear it and I say, yes, I wear it as a hat.
00:29:18.040 That doesn't...
00:29:19.220 I'm not sure that's exactly what they're looking for.
00:29:22.140 I think it's like a little Amish hat.
00:29:23.860 I think it's like one of those little...
00:29:25.400 It is a nice hat.
00:29:26.500 It's a nice hat.
00:29:27.280 Yeah, it is.
00:29:27.660 It's a very nice hat.
00:29:28.280 And it stops the satellites that are spying on your brainwaves.
00:29:32.240 Potentially deflects some of that.
00:29:34.160 Yeah.
00:29:34.920 No, it doesn't.
00:29:35.820 I already checked.
00:29:36.560 It doesn't.
00:29:37.520 It doesn't.
00:29:38.140 I thought that too originally.
00:29:39.840 And then I started doing some research on it.
00:29:41.960 I'm like, damn.
00:29:42.660 Well, because I thought the tinfoil works as a conducting advice.
00:29:46.000 It does.
00:29:46.300 It does.
00:29:46.360 It's what the government wants you to do to avoid the brainwave detection.
00:29:50.040 Tinfoil hats.
00:29:50.340 That's why they've been pushing it all these years.
00:29:51.840 So, by the way, did you hear the audio of Fauci defending the funding now of...
00:30:01.560 Yeah, the Wuhan lab?
00:30:02.700 Yeah.
00:30:03.440 Yeah.
00:30:03.800 No, that didn't happen, guys.
00:30:05.220 No, that was last week.
00:30:06.420 Oh, that's last week.
00:30:07.620 Listen to this audio.
00:30:09.720 Critics say the Wuhan lab experiments were nonetheless risky, whether or not they fit that category.
00:30:15.000 And obviously, the Chinese government is not a good faith partner.
00:30:18.900 They're not allowing transparency.
00:30:20.480 They're not allowing a real investigation.
00:30:21.980 Everyone but the Chinese say this.
00:30:23.200 So, as a matter of policy going forward, given that the Chinese government won't allow any real investigation,
00:30:28.120 do you still think the U.S. government should collaborate with labs like Wuhan,
00:30:32.140 especially on research that experts consider risky?
00:30:36.980 Well, you know, Jake, if you go back to when this research really started
00:30:40.800 and look at the scientific rationale for it, it was a peer-reviewed proposal
00:30:47.760 that was peer-reviewed and given a very high rating for the importance of why it should be done
00:30:54.100 to be able to go and do a survey of what was going on among the bat population
00:30:59.960 because everyone in the world was trying to figure out what the original source of the original SARS-CoV-1 was.
00:31:09.680 And in that context, the research was done, it was very regulated, it was reviewed,
00:31:15.600 it was given progress reports, it was published in the open literature.
00:31:20.700 So I think if you look at the ultimate back rationale why that was started,
00:31:25.760 it was almost as if you didn't pursue that research.
00:31:28.640 You would be negligent because we were trying to find out how you can prevent this from happening again.
00:31:34.820 You'd be negligent if you didn't do the research that they didn't do, according to him.
00:31:41.380 But it was all peer-reviewed and watched carefully and monitoring.
00:31:45.260 So, you know, it was done carefully, but we didn't do it.
00:31:48.320 But we would have been negligent had we not do it.
00:31:51.780 Yeah.
00:31:52.340 What?
00:31:53.120 Has there ever been a bigger lying sack of crap than Anthony Fauci?
00:31:57.000 I don't know that there ever has been.
00:31:58.840 Is there, I mean, is there anyone?
00:32:00.360 Oh, yes, there has been.
00:32:01.100 Has there?
00:32:01.660 Really?
00:32:02.140 Yes, there has been.
00:32:03.000 I don't know.
00:32:03.740 He's just, he's just plurific.
00:32:10.220 Say it for me.
00:32:11.160 Plurific.
00:32:12.160 Ah.
00:32:12.660 Prolific.
00:32:13.300 Yes, prolific.
00:32:14.260 He does that.
00:32:15.040 He is a prolific liar.
00:32:15.840 He is.
00:32:16.620 You know, it's a broad, it's very narrow.
00:32:19.540 It's only about COVID, but it's very broad inside that narrow category.
00:32:24.080 It's almost everything he says.
00:32:26.080 Is anyone questioning what he said?
00:32:28.780 Like, no one's questioning whether, like, this research was started to begin a pandemic.
00:32:34.360 Like, no one thinks that, like, they were like, you know what?
00:32:36.380 Let's start a pandemic.
00:32:37.360 We'll start some research to get it going.
00:32:39.160 Yeah.
00:32:39.340 Like, everyone understands that the idea.
00:32:41.160 Always start with the false premise.
00:32:42.120 Right.
00:32:42.400 The beginning of this, yes, we can understand why you'd think about this.
00:32:45.520 But he continually does this and plays these semantic games where, like, they said,
00:32:51.700 okay, gain of function research is banned.
00:32:54.080 And so, hey, let's go through a process to try to justify that this isn't the definition
00:33:00.120 of gain of function so we can do it.
00:33:02.160 No, they did that after.
00:33:03.540 Right.
00:33:04.060 Yes.
00:33:04.480 They started initially before the ban.
00:33:05.880 Yeah.
00:33:06.180 All said that it was gain of function.
00:33:09.360 And it was peer-reviewed.
00:33:10.220 I don't know if you heard that.
00:33:11.220 The documents of the papers were peer-reviewed.
00:33:12.980 Peer-reviewed.
00:33:13.620 But they were titled gain of function.
00:33:15.440 Yeah, but they were peer-reviewed.
00:33:16.500 Right.
00:33:17.120 And closely scrutinized.
00:33:18.760 They peer-reviewed their way into being able to do the research.
00:33:22.680 Exactly right.
00:33:22.940 They set up their own guidelines.
00:33:25.540 Yes.
00:33:25.860 And then they said, how do we get around these guidelines?
00:33:28.000 Correct.
00:33:28.600 And so, they got around the guidelines.
00:33:30.400 Then, after it was, quote-unquote, a success, then they had to publish a paper on it.
00:33:38.040 Peer-reviewed paper, by the way.
00:33:39.200 And in it, it said that this was done before, you know, the United States held back the funding,
00:33:48.640 even though we gave back the funding back to them.
00:33:51.620 And it said, but a peer-reviewed review was done by peers.
00:33:58.040 Right.
00:33:58.340 And they looked into it, and this one can continue.
00:34:02.480 Oh, that's good to hear.
00:34:03.680 So, that's good to hear.
00:34:04.560 It was peer-reviewed the whole time, and closely scrutinized.
00:34:08.000 And, like, that's a...
00:34:09.160 Like, the question wasn't even about that.
00:34:13.080 It was about, should this continue in the future?
00:34:15.120 And he wouldn't even...
00:34:15.760 He didn't even come remotely close to answering the question.
00:34:17.400 Why do you need that answer?
00:34:18.220 What you need is how many peers of mine...
00:34:21.600 Have reviewed it?
00:34:22.540 Okay.
00:34:22.980 Now, yes.
00:34:23.320 How many peers have reviewed it?
00:34:24.700 Lots.
00:34:25.120 A lot?
00:34:25.520 Lots.
00:34:26.020 Is it peer-reviewed?
00:34:26.880 The vast majority of my peers.
00:34:28.600 Wow.
00:34:29.120 Really?
00:34:29.660 Yes.
00:34:29.920 How many peers do you actually have?
00:34:31.520 I have more than I can count.
00:34:32.800 Okay.
00:34:33.180 Why do you need that question?
00:34:34.260 I don't need that.
00:34:34.960 Yeah, why do you need that question?
00:34:36.060 Thank you very much.
00:34:36.780 I withdraw the question.
00:34:37.580 Thank you.
00:34:37.940 You're getting a little hostile here.
00:34:39.240 Yeah, I apologize.
00:34:40.140 Why are you questioning me?
00:34:41.060 I shouldn't.
00:34:41.620 I shouldn't apologize.
00:34:42.340 Thank you.
00:34:43.040 I'm sorry.
00:34:43.720 I would accept your apology, but you're white, and so you can never do enough to apologize.
00:34:50.120 It's just...
00:34:50.800 Thank you.
00:34:51.580 Welcome back, Pat Gray.
00:34:53.080 Thank you.
00:34:53.320 Nice to have you back in the studio.
00:34:55.660 Good to be back as well.
00:34:57.680 Are you still hosting that program called Pat Gray Unleashed, available everywhere?
00:35:00.760 I am.
00:35:01.220 It usually happens, in fact, just about every time right before this show.
00:35:05.020 What?
00:35:05.420 Really?
00:35:05.800 How would people...
00:35:06.840 How would one acquire this?
00:35:09.180 Why are you asking that, Joe?
00:35:09.920 Why do you need that question answered?
00:35:10.980 Well, I guess I...
00:35:11.980 I don't know that people do that.
00:35:13.860 But I'm willing to.
00:35:14.760 I'm willing to.
00:35:15.660 It's, you know, you could go to the Blaze Radio Television, listen to it there, or anytime,
00:35:22.700 wherever you get your podcasts.
00:35:24.020 That sounds convenient.
00:35:25.280 Wow.
00:35:25.380 Usually, it costs about $130 to download it, but...
00:35:28.920 It's free now?
00:35:29.600 We've discounted it 100%.
00:35:31.220 This man is magnanimous.
00:35:32.880 This man has gone the extra mile, even just answering a question that shouldn't have been
00:35:36.960 asked in the first place.
00:35:37.780 Sorry.
00:35:38.160 You're welcome.
00:35:38.740 Let me tell you about CarShield.

00:37:01.000 So, I don't know about you, but I love the Cleveland Guardians.
00:37:13.100 Love that name.
00:37:14.080 I think they had to be hammered.
00:37:18.160 I think, my guess is that those involved in changing the Cleveland Indians name said,
00:37:25.760 I cannot do this sober.
00:37:30.840 And so, you know, maybe one of the head guys was out on the bridge and like, you know, Bill's
00:37:37.900 going to kill himself if we change the name of the Indians.
00:37:41.700 No, he's not.
00:37:43.880 Yes, he's out on the bridge right now.
00:37:46.700 Standing next to that big statue on the bridge.
00:37:51.060 Hey, maybe that's it.
00:37:53.160 That statue's called the Guardian.
00:37:55.520 Why don't we call them the Cleveland Guardians?
00:37:58.640 Now, I believe that's the way it happened, and I would like to submit some evidence.
00:38:04.160 What the hell are you saying?
00:38:08.460 The Cleveland Guardians already taken.
00:38:11.440 There's another team called the Cleveland Guardians in their own town.
00:38:16.720 And they even have their own website.
00:38:20.640 Nobody, nobody, nobody, no, nobody check the dot com thing.
00:38:26.140 It does seem like an important idea to check Cleveland Guardians dot com before you name.
00:38:30.560 Well, only if you believe in the internet.
00:38:32.080 Yeah, I mean, if you think there's a future.
00:38:34.020 It's a passing trend.
00:38:34.860 Yeah.
00:38:35.260 If you think the interwebs have a future, you usually would go to Cleveland Guardians dot com,
00:38:39.960 which is a male roller derby team.
00:38:42.220 And I never thought of that.
00:38:44.940 I know you'd think before you book Tom Hanks to come in and narrate your launch video,
00:38:51.300 you go to the website.
00:38:53.000 What kind of attorney do they have?
00:38:55.660 Because they had to go and search Cleveland Guardians before.
00:39:00.540 Did they not?
00:39:01.400 I can't believe they didn't.
00:39:02.780 It had to be.
00:39:03.560 Maybe it was one of these things where the where the owner of the site was like,
00:39:06.440 screw you guys.
00:39:07.080 If you change the name, I don't want you to have it.
00:39:08.680 And they've they've already given up.
00:39:10.340 And they said, well, we'll name it the Cleveland Guardians dot com or whatever.
00:39:13.680 I don't know.
00:39:14.220 I don't know what they did.
00:39:15.580 But all I can tell you is you should probably have control of the website.
00:39:19.960 This is why it's difficult to rename a team.
00:39:21.840 Now, there's a guy in Washington who, you know, predicted, as it turns out correctly,
00:39:26.800 that the world would become much more woke in.
00:39:29.200 The Washington Redskins would no longer be allowed.
00:39:31.580 And so he went out and he bought Washington.
00:39:35.420 Whatever's dot com and came up with 100 different things and book all of them.
00:39:38.840 Now, they what they wound up doing, they couldn't come up with a team name and they've decided
00:39:44.520 to just go with Washington football team, which is hilarious.
00:39:47.720 I think I have that one.
00:39:49.760 Washington football team dot com.
00:39:51.760 It's not surprising.
00:39:52.300 That was one of the things he didn't have.
00:39:53.720 Right.
00:39:54.140 I actually think that one turned out to be brilliant.
00:39:56.540 And I liked it at the time.
00:39:58.000 Most people hated it.
00:39:59.280 Now, I would have preferred staying with Washington Redskins because all the complaints about
00:40:02.500 them were stupid.
00:40:03.160 But if you had to change the name, I like Washington football team because I'm an NFC East fan.
00:40:08.640 I'm an Eagles fan.
00:40:09.780 My dad was a Giants fan.
00:40:11.340 One of my good friends is a Redskins fan.
00:40:12.920 Everyone here is a Cowboys fan.
00:40:14.900 No one on earth calls them the Washington football team.
00:40:17.960 They just keep calling them the Redskins because there's no substitute.
00:40:21.720 If they came out with the Washington Guardians, eventually people would transition.
00:40:26.660 No one calls them the football team.
00:40:28.720 They either call them Washington or they say the Redskins.
00:40:31.260 And so, essentially, the team, in a way, has not really been renamed.
00:40:36.340 At some point, the woke left is going to notice this and they're going to make them change
00:40:40.380 it again.
00:40:40.760 I have a feeling that Cleveland, the Guardians, haven't really officially changed their name
00:40:48.300 either.
00:40:51.640 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:40:53.800 By the way, I want to talk to you about Bill Parr.
00:40:55.980 Oh, a nice reminder for us to have one.
00:40:59.160 They're delicious.
00:40:59.820 It's Bill Parr.
00:41:01.240 This is one of their newer flavors.
00:41:03.640 This is Grasshopper Cookie.
00:41:06.560 I think this one actually is no longer available.
00:41:08.760 What?
00:41:08.980 I believe.
00:41:09.340 I believe this is one of their limited time flavors.
00:41:11.700 They have nine, like, constants.
00:41:13.720 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:41:14.320 No, this one is...
00:41:15.400 I'm saving this in this box.
00:41:17.340 Actually, you gave this one to me already.
00:41:18.700 No, I think I need that back.
00:41:19.640 No, it's probably bad.
00:41:21.160 It's probably bad.
00:41:21.940 But this is a candy bar.
00:41:23.900 Thank you.
00:41:24.180 This is a candy bar more than it is a protein bar.
00:41:27.860 It's, you know, really healthy for you.
00:41:30.700 Made with 100% real chocolate, zero guilt, 100% great taste, 150 calories, 17 grams of
00:41:37.400 protein, 6 grams of sugar, 5 net carbs.
00:41:40.880 I mean, they're really, really, really good.
00:41:44.940 It's more of a candy bar.
00:41:46.200 Try them for yourself.
00:41:47.300 They have nine different flavors.
00:41:48.680 They're coming out with a new one tomorrow.
00:41:50.100 I'll tell you about tomorrow.
00:41:51.180 It's Bilt.com.
00:41:52.280 Use the promo code BEC15.
00:41:54.080 Bilt.com.
00:41:55.520 Promo code BEC15.
00:41:58.240 All right, you sick, twisted freak.
00:42:00.920 Hour two of the program begins in a minute.
00:42:02.320 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:42:29.720 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:42:38.440 Hello, America.
00:42:40.440 Well, we finally have captured, captured one of the Capitol riot suspects.
00:42:47.340 He's been nabbed.
00:42:49.940 Man, I feel so much safer now.
00:42:52.440 Don't you?
00:42:53.780 He was, he was nabbed by the feds with the help of a dating app, Bumble.
00:43:00.700 And, uh, so that's, uh, you know, just, hey, don't worry about, don't worry about the fed
00:43:06.600 using all these apps and, you know, making sure that they have back doors to everybody
00:43:11.940 to get all your information.
00:43:13.300 You are perfectly safe.
00:43:15.120 You just don't have to do anything, you know, that is wrong.
00:43:18.680 You know, like, like don't wear a mask, you know, that happens.
00:43:22.640 Or if you disagree with the government in any way that that would probably be bad.
00:43:26.900 But, but other than that, I mean, what do you have to worry about?
00:43:31.160 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:35.840 I want to talk to you about the Justice Department here in about 60 seconds.
00:43:39.200 Stand by.
00:43:40.060 Um, Alicia lives in California.
00:43:42.520 She writes in about her experience with a relief factory.
00:43:44.420 She says, I'm a grocery store worker.
00:43:46.840 Ever since the first coronavirus shutdowns, I've had to work double shifts pretty regularly.
00:43:52.080 Well, she's 53.
00:43:56.020 Why, I mean, why did all the young people leave?
00:43:59.700 Anyway, she's been working double shifts.
00:44:01.880 My two bad knees were just not getting any rest, and I would literally have to limp to
00:44:07.660 and from bed every night and every morning.
00:44:09.820 A few weeks into Relief Factor, and the pain has decreased substantially.
00:44:14.840 I am so thankful for this amazing product.
00:44:17.620 Alicia, I'm so glad that you took Relief Factor.
00:44:20.500 I wish you could help with the pain in the ass that is California, but you'd have to move
00:44:25.460 for that relief.
00:44:27.000 Thanks for writing in.
00:44:28.560 Relief Factor will change your life.
00:44:30.540 70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month, and I want you just
00:44:35.760 to try it for three weeks.
00:44:37.100 If you see no results at all for three weeks, then stop taking it.
00:44:40.980 You're part of the 30% where it doesn't work.
00:44:43.520 But if you're part of that 70%, you get your life back.

00:44:47.560 800-583-84.
00:44:49.480 800-583-84.
00:44:51.780 It's Relief Factor dot com.
00:44:53.700 Yet another Capitol riot suspect has been nabbed.
00:45:07.780 Thanks to, do we have a film noir?
00:45:09.940 Do we have, do we have, I need something very appropriate for this, this crime update, because
00:45:15.660 forget about all of the people that are being shot in the streets.
00:45:18.600 914 this weekend, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:45:22.080 Let's talk about the real crime and the real criminals.
00:45:25.540 Yes, that's right.
00:45:27.000 I'm a cop.
00:45:30.140 Yet another Capitol riot suspect has been nabbed.
00:45:34.240 Thanks to his stupid boasts and photos he posted on social media.
00:45:40.220 This time on the dating app, Bumblebee.
00:45:45.120 Our own FBI was watching and working with Bumblebee.
00:45:50.920 Houston business owner, Andrew Take, 32, discussed his participation in the riot on Bumble.
00:45:58.560 No s***.
00:45:59.800 And he sent several photos.
00:46:02.080 I don't know why they said that all of a sudden, but anyway.
00:46:06.300 He was a Bumble user and he was trying to get a date and he said, I was at the Capitol riot
00:46:13.740 and oh yeah, I was there with pepper spray.
00:46:17.240 Well, he's in the slammer today, Jack.
00:46:20.580 And he's going to light it like his new date options.
00:46:26.140 Now, I don't know about you, but I, uh, I, that doesn't make me feel better.
00:46:29.920 Doesn't make me feel better.
00:46:30.820 I mean, I'm glad that a guy who, if he really did something wrong, um, and he did pepper
00:46:36.560 spray the police, I'm glad that he's, uh, in jail, but I don't like the fact that the
00:46:41.400 government has done everything, including, you know, started to partner with, uh, apps
00:46:46.840 and, uh, Facebook and Google and everybody else, including the banks to just hand them
00:46:53.300 our whereabouts.
00:46:54.620 I don't know.
00:46:55.760 China sounds like China.
00:46:56.860 I think I agree with everything you've said here and that I am the musical choice, even
00:47:02.600 the musical choice and that I also am happy that if someone did something wrong, they're
00:47:07.480 in, in jail.
00:47:08.320 And also I am happy, I'm concerned about the way the government and, and tech are combining.
00:47:14.760 However, if the guy actually typed, I was at the, I was, I believe it less.
00:47:21.860 It's just, I kind of have a tough time tying this particular incident into anything other
00:47:27.780 than the guy being an idiot.
00:47:29.380 Yes.
00:47:29.860 Right.
00:47:30.220 Yes.
00:47:30.460 I agree.
00:47:31.020 But it was with the help of Bumble, they say, they say, so it was a help.
00:47:36.380 I mean, if it was like, you know, if the guy post it and somebody wants to call the FBI,
00:47:41.500 that's cause you're a dummy.
00:47:42.880 I mean, it's not like, remember when the, you know, these people they'll, they'll, they'll
00:47:46.880 do something, they'll rob something.
00:47:47.980 They'll be like, look at, I'm just looping this door.
00:47:50.380 Or, well, in the good old days, you'd go to jail for that.
00:47:54.660 And you'd, you wouldn't have any sympathy because you were still, what are you posting
00:47:58.060 it online for?
00:47:59.140 You think cops don't watch Facebook?
00:48:01.820 That's not going to get to somebody.
00:48:03.680 And that's the line, I guess, right?
00:48:04.760 If, if Bumble's reading private messages and then reporting them, I have not been on Bumble
00:48:10.180 in quite some time, Glenn, this is going to be shocking.
00:48:13.140 But if that, I don't know.
00:48:14.960 I'm there all the time.
00:48:15.740 Yeah, I know you're there all the time.
00:48:16.940 Oh my God.
00:48:17.380 It's weird that it's, it's actually your homepage for your, for your web browser.
00:48:20.600 It takes me so much.
00:48:21.560 I just, I'm happily married.
00:48:24.160 I would never do anything, but you know, just to let women know that, hey, maybe, maybe,
00:48:30.660 you know what I mean?
00:48:31.440 Just to help them through the day.
00:48:33.320 Just to help them through the day.
00:48:34.140 Get them through.
00:48:34.620 Yeah.
00:48:34.860 I mean, there's no chance of me doing it.
00:48:37.100 There's got to be a private messaging option though.
00:48:38.960 I would assume on the service.
00:48:39.860 Don't know.
00:48:40.280 I don't use it.
00:48:41.300 The only thing I know about Bumble, and I've had friends who've been on Bumble and they
00:48:44.620 described something called the Bumble Mountain.
00:48:46.900 Have you heard of this?
00:48:47.440 No, I have not.
00:48:48.200 So the Bumble Mountain is...
00:48:50.080 Never even heard of Bumble, so...
00:48:51.800 No, it's one of the big, it's like a, it's a big, almost as big as, maybe not almost as
00:48:56.620 big.
00:48:56.720 It was one of the developers of, what's the swipe, swipe left, swipe right one?
00:49:00.500 All of them.
00:49:01.100 What is it?
00:49:01.780 Are they all like that?
00:49:02.740 They're all the same now?
00:49:03.660 What's the main one though that everyone...
00:49:05.560 No, Bumble's not the main, that's the number one.
00:49:08.080 Tinder, that's what I'm thinking of.
00:49:09.100 So Tinder is...
00:49:10.260 I was thinking it was fire, but I knew that was wrong, so I didn't say it.
00:49:12.620 Okay.
00:49:12.940 But it was close.
00:49:13.480 So I believe Bumble was created by a woman who worked at Tinder, left that because she
00:49:20.940 felt like women were objectified and such on Tinder, which is a stutter, the whole swipe
00:49:27.220 left, swipe right one.
00:49:28.920 Right, you're just judging them on their looks.
00:49:30.620 Right.
00:49:30.920 How is that shallow?
00:49:31.860 I think I have this story right.
00:49:32.920 Okay.
00:49:33.300 So she goes and then she starts it and I believe Bumble is one where maybe the women have to
00:49:37.500 reach out first.
00:49:38.580 Okay, I have this right.
00:49:39.560 So every guy I've ever talked to who's been on Bumble says there's something called the
00:49:44.480 Bumble Mountain, which is basically you go on Bumble, like you go to a new city or you're
00:49:49.040 in a new area, you go on Bumble and the first like 25 women you see that you're matched with
00:49:55.280 are incredible.
00:49:56.660 Bumble and that's you're at the top of the mountain and then for the rest of your time
00:50:01.080 on Bumble, you're just going, you're rolling down a mountain and the women get less and
00:50:06.480 less attractive as you go down it.
00:50:08.320 So that's Bumble Mountain.
00:50:09.580 In case you were wondering, in case you were thinking today, I'm going to say, hey, I was
00:50:13.880 inside the Capitol spraying pepper spray at people.
00:50:16.800 You've only got up the first 25 or so that it's worth it.
00:50:19.980 Then take that information.
00:50:21.400 I never thought I would get a dating tip from Jay Leno, but I have a good dating tip from
00:50:26.020 Jay Leno.
00:50:26.500 Do you really?
00:50:26.940 Yeah, I do.
00:50:27.280 I do.
00:50:27.700 I love this.
00:50:28.960 Jay Leno said, you know, I talked to all my friends who are, you know, they're making it
00:50:33.380 with some hot babe, you know, and they're like, oh, and it's she's crazy, but the sex is
00:50:39.560 great.
00:50:40.220 And, and he said, yes, but when the sex isn't so important, you're just left with crazy.
00:50:48.060 I think that's really good.
00:50:49.680 I mean, let's not, let's just remember the, the sex kind of, you know, is not as crazy
00:50:56.220 and great as it, as it, as it usually, you know, is in the beginning.
00:51:00.580 I'm digging a hole here and I just, I realized it as a, just blame it on Jay Leno.
00:51:05.540 Luckily, this isn't being broadcast to an area your wife could possibly listen to.
00:51:09.340 Let's, uh, let's, uh, let's move on.
00:51:11.320 Shall we?
00:51:11.820 Uh, okay.
00:51:12.720 So, so the, wow.
00:51:16.400 Uh, so we have, uh, we have something else.
00:51:18.540 So we have them going after this very, very bad guy with pepper spray.
00:51:24.520 Forget about, forget about Portland.
00:51:27.480 Uh, they got him.
00:51:28.540 They finally got him and they've done everything they can, uh, to get him.
00:51:32.200 Now, um, I just want to throw, that's the justice department doing this.
00:51:35.920 The justice department also dropped the cases against, um, Chinese researchers accused of
00:51:43.620 hiding their affiliates, their affiliation with the Chinese military.
00:51:47.340 Okay.
00:51:47.940 Uh, yeah.
00:51:48.820 I mean, you know, we were trying to root out all the alleged China, you know, intelligence
00:51:54.000 gathering people here in the U S, but that was so, oh, last year.
00:51:58.780 Uh, we've, we've decided that we don't need to find those people.
00:52:04.000 And so they've, uh, they've, they've, they've dropped the visa fraud charges against the,
00:52:09.100 uh, Chinese researchers that were here.
00:52:10.900 Well, what possible, um, importance could, uh, a bunch of Chinese researchers have right now.
00:52:19.660 Everyone was thinking it and you know, it just took you to say it.
00:52:23.200 I mean, what, that's, it seems like a waste of time and money, you know?
00:52:29.200 Yeah.
00:52:29.800 Why go after the Chinese right now?
00:52:32.280 They seem like they're in a good place.
00:52:34.500 Nothing wrong going on over there.
00:52:36.720 And I was sure there's, they've built some new, uh, apartment complexes behind some large
00:52:45.000 walls, right?
00:52:46.260 Uh, just over 300 of them.
00:52:47.760 Yeah.
00:52:48.140 And they're great.
00:52:48.740 And they're great.
00:52:49.640 And, and they've got good schooling in there.
00:52:51.840 Good, really good education camp.
00:52:54.260 Yes.
00:52:54.520 Yes.
00:52:54.800 Camp activities.
00:52:56.080 All right.
00:52:56.340 So let me, uh, let me give you this one too.
00:52:58.080 The justice department is just trying to clear the books.
00:53:00.380 You know what I mean?
00:53:00.900 They're just want to, they're so darn busy.
00:53:03.260 They just have to, you know, make some priorities.
00:53:05.760 Justice department has, uh, dropped the investigation in, into Tony Podesta without, uh, without any
00:53:13.180 charges now.
00:53:15.620 That's good.
00:53:16.760 Yeah.
00:53:17.320 Well, is it, is it, I mean, the Podesta group was deeply involved in Ukraine and the minute
00:53:27.540 they, uh, fired, uh, man, uh, what was his name?
00:53:32.160 Uh, he ran the Trump campaign for, for a few months and then he was arrested.
00:53:37.240 Oh, Manafort.
00:53:37.900 Yeah.
00:53:38.020 Manafort, Paul Manafort.
00:53:39.320 Um, when, uh, when they went after Paul Manafort, uh, Paul Manafort was working with the Podesta
00:53:46.180 group and Tony Podesta.
00:53:47.580 And as soon as they, uh, as soon as they arrested him, Tony Podesta kind of went in hiding.
00:53:54.000 He, uh, shut his office, immediately fired everybody the same day and fired everybody.
00:54:00.240 It was like, Oh, we're not doing this anymore.
00:54:01.740 I don't know what, uh, just going on vacation, uh, some unknown country that doesn't have extradition
00:54:06.960 rights.
00:54:07.580 Uh, that's what I want to do.
00:54:08.840 And it was one of the most successful lobbying firms.
00:54:11.260 There was no reason to do it other than there is dirt.
00:54:14.120 So the, the justice department started to investigate him, but they're so busy now.
00:54:19.280 Uh, they just shut it down and they're like, there's nothing to see here.
00:54:22.480 Now in a completely unrelated, uh, news story, Tony Podesta has a new job.
00:54:30.380 He is the, uh, chief lobbyist now for Huawei, you know, the Chinese firm that's run by the
00:54:38.880 communist party.
00:54:39.800 Yeah.
00:54:39.920 I'm familiar with it.
00:54:40.680 Yeah.
00:54:41.000 That is just trying to get 5g because then they can take all of our information and have
00:54:45.460 control of everything that comes out of the United States.
00:54:48.140 Would it be great where there's widespread international agreement that they're doing
00:54:52.260 shady things.
00:54:53.600 Yes.
00:54:53.960 Uh, and we've banned them.
00:54:56.800 Yes.
00:54:57.720 Well, that was so old last year.
00:55:00.000 Yeah.
00:55:00.360 It does feel like a last Tony Podesta is on the case now.
00:55:02.940 So he's going to make sure everything is on the up and up and he's free to do so because
00:55:06.880 he no longer has that investigation hanging over his head.
00:55:11.520 Uh, by the way, um, the justice department also has dropped the probe.
00:55:15.480 This is all this weekend.
00:55:16.700 You know, they were working late.
00:55:17.940 They were like, we got to prioritize guy.
00:55:19.620 We have too many things.
00:55:20.780 Uh, the justice department has dropped the probe on the deaths at the new, uh, New York
00:55:25.980 nursing homes.
00:55:26.760 There's nothing to see there.
00:55:29.340 So they're not going to get involved, uh, in involved at all, uh, uh, in that.
00:55:35.780 So I think we can trust our justice department is on the right track.
00:55:39.860 Don't you?
00:55:40.760 They're not looking into corruption.
00:55:42.780 Oh, by the way, not looking into a hundred Biden either.
00:55:45.560 I mean, there's rumors that they are, but not really.
00:55:48.380 I mean, he's got his big, uh, he's got a, he's got his big art show this weekend.
00:55:53.620 And, and I don't know if you know this, but, uh, his, his art show, you know, he was told
00:55:58.040 that he was, he had to be ethical here and he couldn't know who was buying anything.
00:56:03.660 And so he's not, although he does have a, uh, cocktail party with all of the potential
00:56:10.040 buyers prior to the art sale.
00:56:12.940 Um, so, but they are under strict orders not to say, Hey, I'm going to buy that one for
00:56:18.860 $500,000.
00:56:20.000 You know what I'm saying?
00:56:21.220 Uh, so he's, I mean, he might know who was in the room, but he doesn't know who bought
00:56:25.720 anything.
00:56:26.760 So, and that's pinky promise.
00:56:29.100 They are not going to, by the way, do you know who they're marketing this to?
00:56:32.080 No, it's, it's weird because it's come out in the United States, but they're not marketing
00:56:35.900 it to the United States.
00:56:38.100 They're marketing his art world to all of the art collectors in Asia and China.
00:56:45.540 Huh?
00:56:46.260 Ha ha.
00:56:46.820 That's so weird.
00:56:48.000 Now I know you have a big art show coming up this weekend too.
00:56:51.000 Yeah.
00:56:51.240 Yeah.
00:56:51.580 Now are you also marketing this to lots of Chinese?
00:56:54.720 No, not a, not a, not a soul in China.
00:56:56.600 Like any Saudis?
00:56:57.900 No, no, no, nobody in Ukraine.
00:57:00.440 No one in Ukraine.
00:57:01.080 Just strictly Americans.
00:57:02.120 Because I thought maybe just Ukraine was a big art market.
00:57:04.680 No, it's, well, it is at certain times.
00:57:07.420 It is.
00:57:07.680 You know, yeah.
00:57:08.260 When Democrats are in office, big, big, big, big art interest in Ukraine.
00:57:12.800 You know, some would say this is money laundering, but I wouldn't say that.
00:57:16.140 I mean, this is, this is a guy who's just learned to love art just recently.
00:57:21.220 I mean, that had no, no inkling anywhere that he was even into art or wanted to make art until this year.
00:57:29.780 And I mean, I could see after all that work, why they would go for $500,000.
00:57:33.820 Well, cause you've been doing, making art for a very long time.
00:57:37.500 My whole life.
00:57:38.040 Yeah.
00:57:38.200 And you've been, you've had a lot of national attention on your art in the past.
00:57:43.800 You were named one of the 100 most influential artists in America.
00:57:50.120 Yes, by a real art magazine at one point.
00:57:53.180 Yeah.
00:57:53.440 So like you have a pretty long history of having interest in art and even selling some paintings.
00:58:01.080 I will tell you this, this week, by the way, the art show begins this week.
00:58:05.340 It opens today at Park City Fine Art in Park City, Utah.
00:58:09.200 And you don't have to go.
00:58:10.580 You can see some of the stuff online.
00:58:12.080 I also did a Instagram of the stuff I'm boxing up today and shipping out.
00:58:17.780 Cause I'll be there on, on Saturday and, uh, and you know, you can just call them if you
00:58:23.520 want to buy.
00:58:24.080 Now, here's the thing.
00:58:25.200 They are pricey.
00:58:26.240 They're not $500,000.
00:58:28.320 Um, but which is interesting.
00:58:30.260 Cause you know, you're certainly more famous than Hunter Biden.
00:58:34.680 Well, and maybe, maybe not infamous.
00:58:36.940 I don't know.
00:58:37.520 Maybe, maybe, maybe.
00:58:38.900 Hunter Biden isn't, isn't what other than his dad being president, he is not a, like a massive
00:58:43.940 public figure.
00:58:45.020 I've decided to, you know, my dad was a baker.
00:58:48.060 My dad was a baker.
00:58:48.860 That's right.
00:58:49.200 Okay.
00:58:49.900 So, uh, I'm just, I'm, I'm saying, I'm, I want you to listen carefully.
00:58:55.100 I would be very disappointed to find out that anyone who bought any of my art had the opportunity
00:59:01.600 to ask my dad baking questions.
00:59:05.100 Be very disappointed.
00:59:06.520 I'm not, I'm not, I'm not saying that if you buy one, you're going to meet my dad.
00:59:09.580 So you're saying I get to maybe like talk to your dad.
00:59:11.360 No, no, I'm saying I'd be very disappointed if that ever happened.
00:59:14.580 Why would you point that out?
00:59:15.400 I didn't even bring it up.
00:59:16.120 Because I know, I just, I just thought it was important that people knew if you're going
00:59:20.180 with the intent of meeting my dad, that's not part of the deal.
00:59:24.980 Okay.
00:59:25.680 It's not part of the deal.
00:59:27.640 And if anybody, you know, associated with me would ever make that as a side deal, I'd
00:59:33.440 be very disappointed because I'm only there to sell the art.
00:59:36.720 And you're not going to know who bought it.
00:59:38.360 Except you are going to meet with all of the people.
00:59:40.620 I'm going to meet with all the people.
00:59:41.900 Yeah.
00:59:42.120 Yeah.
00:59:42.420 Yeah.
00:59:42.540 Wednesday night, I'm meeting with all the people.
00:59:44.280 But you're not going to know who actually bought it.
00:59:47.500 No.
00:59:47.520 Other than the fact that you'll definitely know.
00:59:50.260 And the only ones that are there at that party where I meet them are the people who
00:59:54.980 are coming to buy the art.
00:59:56.080 I mean, perhaps if we were in an era of encrypted communication apps, there might be a way for
01:00:00.800 two people to communicate these details.
01:00:03.500 But we don't live in that world.
01:00:04.320 No, we don't use that.
01:00:05.220 I don't even know about those encrypted apps.
01:00:07.600 I don't even know about them.
01:00:08.760 You don't know about them?
01:00:09.400 Nope.
01:00:09.900 Nope.
01:00:10.420 And my dad's baking secrets are his secrets.
01:00:14.120 Okay.
01:00:14.740 I have never seen anything like this thing with they.
01:00:18.480 With Hunter Biden?
01:00:19.120 I can't believe it.
01:00:19.940 What Joe Biden needs to do is like, look, my son's had a lot of problems.
01:00:23.260 I can't stop him legally from painting.
01:00:25.660 However, if I hear word one.
01:00:28.660 He won't.
01:00:29.560 That is someone is buying these these paintings.
01:00:32.360 I will never do business with anyone who buys one of his paintings.
01:00:35.320 Don't buy his paintings.
01:00:36.560 That is what he should say as president of the United States.
01:00:39.700 The corruption is so clear and obvious here.
01:00:42.000 And instead, they're like, well, what we're going to do is not tell anyone anything.
01:00:45.160 And that's going to solve the problem.
01:00:46.880 What if we hide all the information?
01:00:48.620 And what if we don't tell anyone who's buying it, who's selling it, how much it went for?
01:00:53.580 This is blatantly corrupt.
01:00:56.400 And it makes it easier for him.
01:00:58.060 Why does the president of the United States need for what, a couple million dollars to play
01:01:03.160 these games?
01:01:04.180 It's embarrassing.
01:01:04.980 Because his son is snorting most of it.
01:01:07.560 All right.
01:01:07.880 Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
01:01:09.780 You and I have a voice.
01:01:11.180 And it is time to make sure that big mobile hears our voice.
01:01:14.340 For far too long, mobile companies like Verizon have been taking money that we give them,
01:01:18.800 and they're spending it on things like Planned Parenthood.
01:01:21.560 That's their right.
01:01:22.240 As a company, they can do that.
01:01:24.000 But I don't want to help them support Planned Parenthood every time I pay my phone bill.
01:01:28.140 Every time I make a phone call, I'm helping abort babies.
01:01:30.940 That's insane.
01:01:31.860 It is time to switch to Patriot Mobile.
01:01:35.020 Don't put up with what big mobile wants any longer.
01:01:38.320 You don't have to.
01:01:39.800 And right now, they have two great offers to choose from.
01:01:42.120 Either get 50% off your first two months or $100 off any phone.
01:01:46.600 Both offers come with Premier Activation.
01:01:49.120 Just go to PatriotMobile.com slash Beck for details.
01:01:52.280 Patriot Mobile has the broadest nationwide coverage and uses the same cell towers as the major providers.
01:01:58.380 So you're like, well, I don't know.
01:01:59.880 I mean, Verizon, they've got a lot of things covered.
01:02:02.480 Yes, including all the Planned Parenthood clinics.
01:02:05.420 Instead, they use the same cell towers.
01:02:08.640 And it's cheaper.
01:02:10.540 It's better.
01:02:11.500 It's on our side.
01:02:14.520 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.

01:02:27.280 Station ID.
01:02:27.720 By the way, you know, this whole thing with this whole thing with China is just absolutely crazy.
01:02:47.080 But there is one thing that makes me happy.
01:02:50.400 LeBron James is still being blocked by China.
01:02:55.060 They refuse to release Space Jam 2.
01:02:57.720 Oh, no.
01:03:00.880 That's a big deal to LeBron James.
01:03:03.060 He's been playing up to China the whole time.
01:03:06.060 And now he's in a big movie that sucks.
01:03:08.380 But I don't know if the Chinese, maybe the Chinese are like, that's great.
01:03:11.940 I don't know.
01:03:12.860 I'm just glad that he's not allowed to market himself any more than he already is.
01:03:19.640 The guy sold his soul to China.
01:03:21.960 And now China is like, yeah, no food for you.
01:03:25.200 Couldn't happen to a better person.
01:03:26.840 I'll tell you that much.
01:03:27.720 Couldn't.

01:05:08.400 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:05:10.500 There was some controversy over the weekend whether Joe Biden was going to round up all of our 9mm handguns, and as much as I'd like to tell you that that's what he said he was going to do, because I believe that's what, in the end, they do want to do, I don't believe that's what he was talking about.
01:05:27.500 Last week, he was on CNN, and he said, how are you going to address the gun violence from the federal point of view?
01:05:34.260 And he said, and now, I love this man.
01:05:37.520 You know whenever he's lying, when he says, I'm not kidding, I'm not joking around, I'm not fooling around.
01:05:44.440 That's true.
01:05:45.640 That's crazy, but seriously, folks, I mean, he's like a vaudevillian actor.
01:05:50.340 Anyway, his response was, now, I'm not being a wise guy.
01:05:54.180 Yeah, she, there's no reason, no reason you, well, have you seen my gun violence legislation I've introduced?
01:06:00.780 As you know, because you're so involved, actually, crime is down, but gun violence and murder rates are up.
01:06:07.660 Why?
01:06:09.520 Hmm, because you're defunding the police?
01:06:11.380 Guns.
01:06:12.720 Oh, I thought it was because I'm the only guy that ever got passed legislation, and when I was senator, I made sure we eliminated assault weapons.
01:06:20.020 The idea you need a weapon, they have the ability to fire 20, 30, 50, 120 shots from that weapon, whether it's a 9mm pistol or whether it's a rifle is ridiculous.
01:06:30.960 I'm continuing to push to eliminate the sale of those things.
01:06:34.220 I'm not likely to get that done in the near term, however.
01:06:37.240 Okay, so everybody thought and took him at his word that he wants to round up 9mm pistols.
01:06:43.600 Yes, he does.
01:06:46.080 Yes, he does.
01:06:46.920 Make no mistake.
01:06:47.760 In the end, they want all guns.
01:06:50.160 However, what he was talking about is what he is saying about the 9mm, their pistols.
01:06:56.240 I don't even know what you call them.
01:06:57.240 I have one.
01:06:58.640 And out of my cold, dead hands.
01:07:00.900 But anyway, they have with the collapsing stock.
01:07:05.460 And so they're kind of like pistols, and they're kind of like rifles.
01:07:09.320 You can collapse them so they're smaller.
01:07:11.580 And that's what he's talking about.
01:07:14.220 I mean, you don't.
01:07:15.340 I've never seen a 9mm handgun with a 120 magazine in it.
01:07:23.320 You know what I mean?
01:07:24.060 120 bullets in a magazine?
01:07:26.480 That'd be kind of hard to get in your pocket or your back.
01:07:28.680 I mean, it's like you'd be carrying around a broomstick on the end of your gun.
01:07:32.800 Don't they come in little swirly ones, like little wheels?
01:07:35.900 You ever see those?
01:07:36.320 I've only seen those on James Bond, and I want one.
01:07:39.640 And I want one.
01:07:41.580 Why?
01:07:42.600 I don't know.
01:07:43.580 Mainly because Daddy says we can't have one.
01:07:47.200 Makes me want it even more.
01:07:49.620 By the way, see if this sounds familiar at all.
01:07:53.280 There's a story out of Hong Kong now about what the Chinese are doing to the, quote, free residents of Hong Kong.
01:08:01.740 Remember, they rounded up all those people that they could, you know, that were saying, hey, America, come help us, you know, be free.
01:08:10.600 We want your freedoms.
01:08:12.560 Good thing those people were rounded up.
01:08:14.380 We don't know what happened to those.
01:08:16.060 But now the National Security Police.
01:08:19.400 Oh, we should have some of those in Hong Kong on Thursday said they had arrested five members of a speech therapists union over a series of children's books depicting seditious sheep.
01:08:33.000 Authorities say it shows support for the 2019 protest movement and incited hatred towards the government.
01:08:42.860 Now, I just just I'm sure you're not going to find anything that sounds familiar here.
01:08:47.900 But let me just two men, three women aged 25 to 28, all of whom are members of the Hong Kong speech therapist general union were arrested on suspicion of conspiring to publish seditious publications in connection with the three children's picture books titled The Guardians of Sheep Village, The Garbage Collectors of Sheep Village and The Twelve Heroes of Sheep Village.
01:09:11.280 National Security Police seized around 550 children's books, leaflets, computers and mobile phones in a morning raid on the union, arresting the chairperson and several other freezing all of their assets.
01:09:23.720 Senior Superintendent Steve Lee said the sheep were intended to represent protesters who fought back against riot police in 2019 and depicted the authorities as bad guys, beautifying bad behavior and poisoning children's impressionable minds.
01:09:43.500 You can't let children read about hate.
01:09:47.500 Now, that comes from the superintendent of schools that's banning this.
01:09:53.720 Huh.
01:09:54.800 One book characterizes the wolves as dirty and the sheep is clean, while another lauds the actions of heroic sheep who use their horns to fight back despite being naturally peaceful.
01:10:05.440 Hong Kong Confederation of Trade Unions official Wong Nan Young told RFA that the case of the seditious sheep.
01:10:13.240 I mean, doesn't that sound like a joke?
01:10:15.760 I mean, it sounds like a movie like, you know, you know, one of those murder mystery.
01:10:20.720 The case, the case, the case of the seditious sheep, he said to show that even metaphors are now no longer safe from the ruling Chinese Communist Party.
01:10:31.840 A crackdown on speech crimes in Hong Kong has begun.
01:10:38.420 The Hong Kong thing's over, isn't it?
01:10:40.160 Which is really depressing.
01:10:41.580 Oh, it's over.
01:10:42.200 It's over.
01:10:42.760 It's over.
01:10:43.580 You see what was happening in Cuba this weekend?
01:10:46.620 I mean, the bloody riots that were going on from the police just beating people in the streets.
01:10:53.660 Nobody seems to be caring about that.
01:10:55.460 I don't know why.
01:10:56.240 I don't know why.
01:10:57.480 Nobody didn't see that everywhere.
01:10:59.620 I think you may be right on that.
01:11:02.280 I think a lot of people on the right care about it.
01:11:04.720 I think a lot of people on the left care about it in that they don't want the regime to be toppled.
01:11:11.020 There is some care there, which is part of the reason why we don't hear much about it.
01:11:14.880 You'd think that would be a real priority for the suggestion of just making sure that people can get on the Internet right now.
01:11:22.160 It seems like a really easy, basic thing, so at least this stuff can be pushed out and we can hear about it.
01:11:28.140 Well, I mean, the government doesn't want to interfere with what Google and Facebook and social media platforms are doing.
01:11:35.460 They would never want to do that.
01:11:37.300 Hey, can you guys open that up a little bit?
01:11:39.200 You know, and by the way, I think it's I think it's it's wrong.
01:11:43.900 Think really, Stu, that you would even suggest that people have a right to get online and say what they want.
01:11:50.220 Is it?
01:11:51.820 Yeah, it is.
01:11:54.760 Danny Deutsch was was on some MSNBC show.
01:11:58.700 Donnie?
01:11:59.100 Is it Denny or Danny or Donnie?
01:12:01.060 I don't really care that much.
01:12:02.760 You didn't care enough to know his name?
01:12:05.140 Nope.
01:12:05.700 I think it's Danny.
01:12:07.400 Nope.
01:12:07.660 It's Donnie.
01:12:08.700 Donnie.
01:12:09.060 You said you said Danny and I said Donnie and then I reversed myself.
01:12:12.160 I think it was.
01:12:12.680 Let's just go with Denny.
01:12:13.980 Denny.
01:12:14.580 Denny Deutsch.
01:12:15.520 Denny Deutsch.
01:12:16.560 That's what he said on MSNBC.
01:12:19.620 Look, whether it's a mandate, a mask, a mandate, a vaccine is at this point, there is a percentage of the population that who cares whether they're angry or upset about that.
01:12:29.800 This is just there's 330 million people in this country.
01:12:32.860 We need to protect ourselves.
01:12:34.060 And as Willie and Alicia mentioned, look, there's been mandates on throughout time.
01:12:39.500 I grew up having to get a smallpox vaccine.
01:12:41.400 We all did other vaccines also.
01:12:43.240 So I'm done worrying about what people think.
01:12:46.320 I'm done worrying about is there going to be a firestorm, whether it's a mandated mask, whether it's a mandated vaccine.
01:12:51.740 There's an idiot percentage of this population that just needs to be told what to do.
01:12:57.160 And guess what?
01:12:57.800 You don't have a choice.
01:12:59.160 Too bad.
01:13:00.740 Hmm.
01:13:01.400 Hmm.
01:13:01.640 That's interesting, because I would imagine that he's talking about people like in this audience that are just idiots that just need to be told what to do.
01:13:11.020 I think our founders would be very proud of that.
01:13:13.320 Of course, they didn't see things like disease coming our way.
01:13:16.540 You know what I mean?
01:13:17.720 They couldn't see a pandemic.
01:13:19.680 No, no.
01:13:20.900 That's all new stuff.
01:13:22.080 All new.
01:13:22.560 But I'm certainly glad that we have heroes.
01:13:26.220 I mean, can you how do you think you're on the right side of history when you know the arc of history always bends towards justice and freedom?
01:13:36.080 It may take a long time, but have you not read about the Soviet Union?
01:13:42.960 Have you not read about Italy and Germany and all of these places just recently that have tried this?
01:13:51.820 Have you not read about that?
01:13:53.120 It doesn't end well for the people who are pushing it.
01:13:55.520 It doesn't end well.
01:13:56.520 Well, what's it?
01:13:58.400 Pushing it.
01:13:59.260 What is it?
01:14:02.040 Authoritarianism.
01:14:04.260 It's saying, I don't care about what the little people say.
01:14:07.480 Really?
01:14:08.580 Wow.
01:14:09.420 You know, King Arthur, they don't think really existed, right?
01:14:11.920 You know that, right?
01:14:12.680 The idea of King Arthur was, they think, was just more of something that came from the serfs or the smurfs or whatever they are.
01:14:24.160 It came from all of the people.
01:14:25.560 They couldn't own land.
01:14:26.580 They looked for a great king someday that would actually care about them.
01:14:33.420 And that's why they think the King Arthur thing, you know, the legend grew that he was a good, just king.
01:14:45.300 These guys are on the sides of the king and they're saying, I don't really care about the peasants.
01:14:50.700 How elitist?
01:14:51.820 How do you think that you're on the right side saying these kinds of things?
01:14:56.720 Yeah, because you can almost make an argument like in the King Arthur times, it was a little excusable, right?
01:15:01.480 Where you'd say, well, I hope someday a king comes along and is nice to us.
01:15:05.000 But we should now, by now, know the evidence of history that when you're looking for some king to be benevolent,
01:15:12.800 some all-powerful person to just make sure they tolerate you enough, it's never a good way to go.
01:15:18.640 It doesn't work.
01:15:19.420 Doesn't work.
01:15:20.100 Doesn't work.
01:15:20.620 It doesn't work when you have a balanced government.
01:15:23.000 It takes about 250 years to dismantle it.
01:15:25.480 I mean, look at what we had.
01:15:28.220 We've had bad, we've had bad administrations.
01:15:32.000 We've had good administrations.
01:15:33.860 You know, there's been times, but we would always have in flow.
01:15:36.640 And I would think that we'd always get better.
01:15:39.380 But that apparently has stopped.
01:15:41.920 And now you're just saying, I just think people should shut up and just do what we say.
01:15:46.860 This is why you make your foundations, you know, rights-based, right?
01:15:54.180 Oh, there's an update on that.
01:15:56.620 There's an update on that.
01:15:58.260 There's voting going on in Maine about rights.
01:16:04.240 Okay.
01:16:04.680 They're thinking about introducing new rights.
01:16:06.840 Oh, good.
01:16:07.440 Yeah, and people are going to vote on it.

01:17:35.800 You are listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:17:38.480 Okay, really torn on this story.
01:17:45.140 I thought I was against it when I read the headline, then I thought I was for it as I
01:17:49.320 read the story, and now I'm not sure.
01:17:52.500 Maine voters are set to decide this fall whether to enshrine a right to food in their constitution.
01:18:00.540 If passed, the state would become the first to guarantee such a right.
01:18:07.140 Sounds like a bad idea, doesn't it?
01:18:10.020 Here's what the proposed constitutional amendment states.
01:18:15.900 Voters, they're asking voters if they, quote, favor amending the constitution of Maine to
01:18:23.280 declare that all individuals have a natural, inherent, and unalienable right to grow, raise,
01:18:30.860 harvest, produce, and consume the food of their own choosing for their own nourishment,
01:18:36.840 sustenance, bodily health, and well-being.
01:18:39.260 Period.
01:18:40.340 Now I'm for it.
01:18:42.160 Absolutely for it.
01:18:43.920 But it's a reaffirming of this.
01:18:47.320 You have the right to food.
01:18:48.820 You have the right.
01:18:49.540 This right, by the way, went away under the FDR administration.
01:18:56.040 There was a farmer that said, you can't regulate my wheat.
01:19:00.560 I only grow enough wheat for my own use.
01:19:03.660 Because my wife and I, we make our own bread and we grind the wheat ourself.
01:19:08.940 You don't have any right to come onto my property and talk to me about what I need to do with
01:19:12.400 my wheat.
01:19:13.140 You can't regulate me because it's what I'm consuming.
01:19:17.720 And all of the trade laws between the states, they went out the window.
01:19:27.060 All your rights.
01:19:28.060 The trade laws became paramount.
01:19:31.640 No, no, no.
01:19:32.240 What you're doing, that pollen might go to another farm in another area.
01:19:37.540 And so you don't have a right to do that.
01:19:39.420 Now, this is really, really dangerous because that's what set up the GMO market.
01:19:46.400 The GMOs, if you have GMOs in any farm area, those GMOs, they, if you will, infect the other
01:19:58.300 markets so that they'll go to one farm to another farm and it mixes.
01:20:07.100 And pretty soon you can't grow corn anymore because your corn seed is no good because the
01:20:13.260 GMO, because the companies want to keep making money on charging for seeds.
01:20:19.140 The GMO distributors have a right to make sure that nobody is using their wheat unless they've
01:20:27.760 paid for it or their corn unless they've paid for it.
01:20:30.900 So what's happening here is actually this is an organic farmer that is pushing for this
01:20:36.880 saying, no, I have a right to grow anything I want.
01:20:40.900 You can't, you can't, you can't tell me no.
01:20:45.100 The problem is, is the seed language in the contracts will make it difficult for anybody
01:20:52.420 in Maine to do business with GMO seed producers.
01:20:57.140 And that may be the reason for this whole mess.
01:21:01.700 But I think I support the right to raise your own food, do anything that you want.
01:21:09.760 You have a right to eat.
01:21:11.320 You have a right to grow your own food, raise your own food, do what you need to do.
01:21:17.660 You have a right to go fishing.
01:21:19.660 I don't, I don't, I'm sorry, but I don't agree with fishing license.
01:21:22.900 It's just a way for the state to make money.
01:21:24.600 I don't agree with a fishing license.
01:21:26.460 Why, why do I have to go get a fishing license for, for something I'm doing in the, in the
01:21:32.740 river that crosses my property?
01:21:34.600 What are you talking about?
01:21:36.940 You have a right to eat.
01:21:39.380 And now Maine is, is, I think for a good reason, wading into these waters, but you don't want
01:21:47.960 states doing anything other than affirming your rights come from God.
01:21:54.600 I want to talk to you about jerks and I'll do it in 60 seconds.
01:22:06.300 The Glenn Beck program.
01:22:08.540 So you heard me talking about built bars for a little while now.
01:22:11.180 And I know, despite what my sense of taste tells me, built bars are technically protein
01:22:18.140 bars, but here's the thing.
01:22:21.020 I think they're candy bars and I think they should be marketed as candy bars.
01:22:24.600 Built bar like, no, it's a protein bar.
01:22:26.460 It's really healthy for you.
01:22:27.360 And I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:22:28.340 It's a candy bar.
01:22:29.360 No, it's a health bar.
01:22:30.360 Candy bar, health bar, candy bar.
01:22:34.060 It's made with a hundred percent real chocolate and they taste like candy bars.
01:22:38.460 Now, I guess you're going to get those people who, you know, want to eat healthy.
01:22:41.820 I just want to be healthy.
01:22:43.900 Well, if you're calling them a candy bar, I guess it'll be harder to get those people on
01:22:47.540 board.
01:22:47.820 But then if they actually do their homework and they really want to be healthy, then they'll
01:22:51.980 read the package.
01:22:53.620 That's not something candy bar consumers do.
01:22:55.900 We just eat it.
01:22:56.840 It's good.
01:22:57.620 Yummy.
01:22:58.360 Open package.
01:22:59.840 Eat.
01:23:01.140 Health people, they read the package.
01:23:02.600 They see it's loaded with protein and it's got five net carbs or four net carbs, 120 calories.
01:23:08.600 They're fantastic for the healthy people.
01:23:11.380 But this is a victory for us poor slobs down, you know, thinking I'm too fat to even start
01:23:17.560 thinking about not getting fat anymore.
01:23:19.780 I'm just going to eat candy bars.
01:23:22.920 And it's.
01:23:24.820 It's a hoax, people.
01:23:26.600 It's a hoax.
01:23:27.320 It's a candy bar.
01:23:28.960 It's a protein bar.
01:23:30.140 Built bar.
01:23:31.080 You decide.

01:23:37.640 Use the promo code BEC15.
01:23:40.140 All right.
01:23:40.700 So I want to talk to you about jerks.
01:23:43.760 And, you know, and you know who I'm talking about.
01:23:46.620 I mean, all the jerks in your life, all the jerks in my life, Stu, and where did that come
01:23:55.180 from?
01:23:55.600 Where all these jerks come from?
01:23:57.980 How come there are so many jerks around us?
01:24:00.300 I was born in New York and I grew up in Connecticut.
01:24:02.760 Yeah.
01:24:05.680 Well, you know what it is.
01:24:08.340 It's the hardships of childhood.
01:24:10.960 They had a hard time in childhood.
01:24:13.420 They had.
01:24:14.800 Oh, my gosh.
01:24:15.480 They had all kinds of trials and tribulations that you just don't know.
01:24:20.680 Yeah.
01:24:22.080 Yeah.
01:24:22.480 They had tests like crazy.
01:24:26.080 Oh, boy.
01:24:26.740 They were put to the test.
01:24:28.480 And so what happens is most people will, you know, mask the pain.
01:24:33.400 I used alcohol to mask the pain.
01:24:35.700 Others mask it with greed or gluttony.
01:24:38.420 I actually do a little of that one, too.
01:24:40.640 Arrogance.
01:24:42.980 Distance.
01:24:44.200 And so you look at them and you're like, that's an arrogant SOB.
01:24:46.480 And you don't know about all the trials and the tests and the tribulations.
01:24:49.620 But which one do you want to be?
01:24:55.140 I mean, because we all had stuff that happened to us.
01:24:57.500 All.
01:24:58.000 We all have had stuff happen to us.
01:25:00.440 You know, it's funny.
01:25:01.060 A friend of mine said, you know, everybody wants a testimony.
01:25:07.120 Everybody loves the testimony of somebody who is like, oh, my gosh.
01:25:11.300 I was so poor and broke and downtrodden and I had nothing.
01:25:15.860 And then all of a sudden I realized and now look at me.
01:25:20.220 I'm Jennifer Aniston.
01:25:21.700 And everybody loves that.
01:25:23.440 Everybody loves that.
01:25:24.840 But a testimony requires the first part.
01:25:28.180 It's not the ammonia.
01:25:30.260 It's the test.
01:25:32.880 The test is what gives you the ammonia.
01:25:36.280 And nobody wants it.
01:25:41.800 Nobody wants hard times.
01:25:43.540 Life is unfair.
01:25:45.460 So unfair.
01:25:47.460 I don't like it because it's not fair.
01:25:50.480 Who who started this lie that life was fair?
01:25:54.240 Life.
01:25:56.360 Life is hard.
01:25:58.360 And then it gets harder.
01:26:00.020 And then you die.
01:26:01.840 Now, that's pretty pessimistic way to look at it.
01:26:04.920 But it's true.
01:26:06.900 Um, however.
01:26:09.520 That's I could not get through my day if it was like that.
01:26:12.980 I've had really, really bad days.
01:26:16.620 I've had really bad years.
01:26:18.280 I've had horrible decades.
01:26:23.140 But it gets better.
01:26:25.940 Even my lows aren't so low.
01:26:28.000 And that happened for a reason.
01:26:30.480 So if you're today thinking, well, I can't make it.
01:26:37.380 Or if you think that there's really legitimate, and I'm sure there are really legitimate things that have happened to you that are unfair.
01:26:44.620 The question is, stop whining for a second.
01:26:48.960 If you want to fix it, ask yourself this question.
01:26:55.940 So now what?
01:26:57.860 My life sucks right now.
01:27:00.320 And the world is unfair.
01:27:02.720 Okay.
01:27:03.720 Now what?
01:27:04.540 Because you can't just spend your whole life.
01:27:08.680 Oh, life is unfair.
01:27:09.780 Yeah, I know.
01:27:10.280 I know.
01:27:10.540 You've told me a thousand times.
01:27:12.240 Now what?
01:27:13.560 And you really have two routes.
01:27:14.960 You can try to make life fair.
01:27:18.720 That's going to be tough.
01:27:20.800 But you can try to make life fair.
01:27:24.240 Now the problem with that is, is when you make it fair for some, it will be unfair for others.
01:27:28.900 For instance, income tax.
01:27:32.040 Is it fair that, you know, people at the upper end of the spectrum pay 50% of everything they earn?
01:27:41.700 And 50% of the country pays nothing?
01:27:46.900 Is that fair?
01:27:48.380 Do we all have a dog in the fight?
01:27:51.260 Are we all in it together if half of the people are getting money from the government and not putting anything in?
01:28:01.560 I don't think that's fair.
01:28:03.680 But life isn't fair.
01:28:06.160 But if we're trying to make it fair, well, for instance, there's a story out.
01:28:09.660 The Democrats are now going to, they're trying to pass some new bill, a Democratic proposal that will give more federal aid to black people than white people.
01:28:25.240 Well, that doesn't sound fair, does it?
01:28:28.820 Just because of your skin color, you have a better chance of getting aid?
01:28:33.380 Look, I, you know, if, if, if something's out of balance, I want to fix that.
01:28:42.080 Because fairness is treating everyone alike, I thought.
01:28:45.200 But now fairness is to make sure, I guess, that we're discriminating against one group in favor of another.
01:28:52.660 But I thought that was discrimination.
01:28:53.820 And we banned that in our enlightened, it's 1960s and 1865.
01:29:01.580 I thought we, I thought we got rid of that stuff.
01:29:04.300 At least that's what we were trying to do.
01:29:06.440 But see, it's the disparity.
01:29:09.300 Whites, 72% of white families own a home.
01:29:12.320 Only 42% of black families own homes.
01:29:16.560 Okay, so that's a 30 point gap.
01:29:18.320 That's bad.
01:29:18.840 It must have been getting worse, right?
01:29:22.540 Well, in 1960, that 30 point gap was a 27 point gap.
01:29:27.780 So the $20 trillion that the United States of America has put in to raise the level of black families.
01:29:39.840 Trillions, over $20 trillion.
01:29:43.320 And we still have a 27 point gap over a 30% gap.
01:29:51.140 And has the rest of their lives gotten better from this?
01:29:58.780 No, but you know, life isn't fair.
01:30:00.880 Well, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
01:30:04.220 When you're trying to fix an issue of unfairness, what happens when your fix becomes unfair?
01:30:11.260 Then you have to ask yourself, do the ends justify the means?
01:30:15.880 Do you think you should be punished for laws that you didn't create?
01:30:23.560 In other words, I didn't round up the Japanese.
01:30:27.900 FDR did.
01:30:29.640 I didn't enslave people.
01:30:32.100 My people weren't even here in America when that was going on.
01:30:35.920 I mean, I hate to point out they were in Germany because it doesn't really help my case any.
01:30:38.600 But they weren't here.
01:30:40.020 So, what's the deal with that?
01:30:44.820 That doesn't seem fair.
01:30:47.820 Would you want to pay for something that you didn't have any part of?
01:30:53.240 Would you want to be punished for something you wouldn't want, that you didn't do?
01:30:58.340 Would you want to be punished because those who look like you in terms of skin color did something or created something that now is deemed bad, but was fine back then?
01:31:11.200 I wouldn't.
01:31:13.200 I wouldn't.
01:31:14.200 And I wouldn't want to subject anybody else.
01:31:16.100 Because if I can subject them to that, they can subject me into that same category.
01:31:23.220 The best man can do is say life isn't always fair and try to create win-wins.
01:31:35.460 But to create a win-win, you kind of have to let nature work.
01:31:41.160 So, your first option is, you know, try to make life fair.
01:31:46.040 But that's fraught with traps.
01:31:48.620 The other is, you could get angry and take it out on others.
01:31:52.100 And that's where a lot of people go.
01:31:54.100 That's where a lot of people are now.
01:31:55.300 Why do you think, where did Antifa come from?
01:31:57.880 What is that?
01:31:59.200 They care about totalitarianism.
01:32:01.260 No, they don't.
01:32:02.340 They're fascists.
01:32:03.540 It's either their way or no way.
01:32:06.240 That's pretty much a thumbnail of a fascist.
01:32:11.640 Where did all this anger come from?
01:32:14.020 Well, they're white.
01:32:16.340 Mainly white people.
01:32:18.180 And they've had a very hard time usually growing up in the suburbs.
01:32:21.940 So you can see the angst there.
01:32:26.440 Uh-huh.
01:32:29.880 We're just trying to help other people, trying to make it fair for them.
01:32:33.380 Oh, by being unfair?
01:32:36.240 Well, life's just against you.
01:32:40.960 Really?
01:32:41.980 Because I'd like to say, life is probably not against you.
01:32:44.780 Most likely not.
01:32:46.160 Most likely not against you.
01:32:48.140 You know?
01:32:49.040 Everybody is born.
01:32:50.400 And everybody, you know, is not born with the same anything.
01:32:55.720 Except humanness.
01:32:57.440 So we're all human.
01:32:59.100 But life is supposed to be something that you can work your way through.
01:33:02.920 And, you know, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was kind and actually thanked the executioner right before he was hung.
01:33:13.080 He seemed to work that out.
01:33:14.720 And that was pretty bad.
01:33:15.840 He was in a concentration camp for a while.
01:33:18.620 And then executed 15 days before Hitler.
01:33:21.660 How unfair is that?
01:33:23.100 He fought against Hitler the whole time.
01:33:24.780 And 15 days before Hitler kills himself, they execute him.
01:33:28.900 Boy, that's not fair.
01:33:29.940 Sometimes it's true that the cards are stacked against you.
01:33:37.500 I mean, I'd hate to point out that the cards were pretty much stacked against me from birth.
01:33:44.540 You know, to be here?
01:33:46.480 No way.
01:33:47.480 No way this would happen.
01:33:50.500 Is it because I'm white?
01:33:52.340 Nope.
01:33:53.500 Is it because I was raised?
01:33:55.060 Figure it out.
01:33:56.240 It's got to be a path.
01:33:57.440 Figure it out.
01:33:58.060 Now, when no media would take me, when everybody was like, oh, you can't be anything but Fox.
01:34:07.340 Really?
01:34:08.220 I'm going to start something new.
01:34:09.860 That's crazy.
01:34:10.840 How stupid is that?
01:34:11.760 Nobody's going to watch streaming online.
01:34:16.460 Yeah, that's what they said 10 years ago.
01:34:18.240 Now look at where we are.
01:34:21.440 Life.
01:34:22.020 I can't get a show on a network.
01:34:24.320 I've tried to get shows on Amazon and Netflix, HBO.
01:34:28.960 I've met with them.
01:34:29.880 They've actually said to me, this is great, but we can't work with you.
01:34:37.040 Why?
01:34:38.480 Because the other artists wouldn't like it.
01:34:41.080 Oh, okay.
01:34:42.480 Okay.
01:34:43.000 All right.
01:34:43.460 Well, that doesn't seem fair, does it?
01:34:45.480 Does it?
01:34:45.860 So do I go and try to break them all up and say, you can't do that?
01:34:50.820 No, no.
01:34:51.920 Just do it my way and realize that there are things I can't do.
01:34:56.840 But see, I take a third way to life isn't fair.
01:35:03.880 I know that.
01:35:05.360 I admit that.
01:35:07.560 Sucks to be you sometimes.
01:35:09.100 Sucks to be me sometimes.
01:35:13.720 But I also know that I'm a beacon.
01:35:17.360 I also know that what I think I attract.
01:35:21.080 So if I'm thinking negative things, I'll attract negative things.
01:35:24.160 If I think negative thoughts, I'm going to attract negative people.
01:35:27.320 But if I'm thinking positive things, good things, and I'm actually engaged in living that, good things will follow.
01:35:37.240 Not always.
01:35:38.040 Not the things that you necessarily want.
01:35:40.160 I haven't wanted the last 10 years.
01:35:41.900 Stu, have you really wanted the last 10 years?
01:35:43.800 If you were mapping out 10 years ago what these 10 years would have been like, would you have gone, you know what, Glenn, I'd be happy if that was the path?
01:35:51.640 I may have diagrammed it a little bit differently.
01:35:53.140 Yes, exactly right.
01:35:54.600 But are you happy with where you are now in 10 years, even though everything that's happened to us in the last 10 years?
01:36:00.860 Sure.
01:36:01.340 I am.
01:36:01.780 It's all part of that journey, I suppose.
01:36:05.060 Even though some turns we ran into brick walls.
01:36:08.680 Yes.
01:36:09.360 And really kind of like did some damage.
01:36:12.500 Not to the wall, to us.
01:36:17.400 You know, study after study shows that religious people and conservatives are happy.
01:36:22.300 They're happier.
01:36:24.600 Than liberals.
01:36:25.720 And the more down that road of Marxism you go, the darker you seem to go.
01:36:32.620 Why?
01:36:35.060 Because where's the hope in everything sucks?
01:36:38.420 Where's the hope in I'll never get better?
01:36:41.480 I'll never get out of this trap and neither will my kids.
01:36:43.700 Where is the hope in everything has to be burned down?
01:36:50.300 You know, because at some point you do stop and go, if we burn everything down, what's going to be left that will get everybody to hang together through it?
01:36:59.440 That's why Marxist revolutions always end in some horrible, you know, it wasn't Stalin that was the pick of the people.
01:37:12.700 That happened afterwards.
01:37:16.580 Stalin came in, you know, right after.
01:37:19.360 It doesn't work out.
01:37:24.080 And it did here in America because they had a positive vision.
01:37:30.500 We believe that all men are created equal and endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
01:37:36.840 And to make sure that those things are guarded, we lend certain rights to the government.
01:37:43.800 And if the government ever becomes an adversary to those rights, we have the right and the responsibility to abolish it and then set something up that will be better at protecting those rights.
01:37:57.440 See, it's not like we're going to abolish America.
01:37:59.780 That's what that's what Antifa would say.
01:38:01.360 We're just going to do something different.
01:38:03.220 Really?
01:38:03.960 What?
01:38:04.280 Could you share it with us?
01:38:05.300 That's what people in Washington are doing.
01:38:07.680 We're just going to change all this to what?
01:38:10.540 How about you share it?
01:38:11.360 See, that was the difference between all revolutions and our revolution.
01:38:15.600 We set out at the forefront.
01:38:18.400 This is what we want to build.
01:38:21.500 And if we can take control of our own self, we will build that.
01:38:25.940 And they did.
01:38:28.380 And it wasn't it wasn't promised to be utopia.
01:38:31.180 It was promised to be a place that would live by the rule of law, not the rule of men, but the rule of law.
01:38:40.180 And that we would correct our mistakes.
01:38:42.140 Because we weren't we weren't setting up a perfect nation.
01:38:47.100 We want to set up a more perfect nation, one that is going to have flaws, one that's going to one that's not going to be fair because only God's kingdom will be fair.
01:38:57.660 One that won't be fair, but we try every day to make it more fair, more perfect for as many people as we can without doing harm to the rights of the rest of the people.
01:39:13.760 All right.
01:39:17.880 I can't believe I've had my rec tech for like a year and a half.
01:39:21.860 I can tell you I am in love with it today as much as I was in love with it the first day I got it because rec tech gives me the opportunity to make amazing, delicious meals that.
01:39:33.100 Between you and I aren't burnt, everything I ever tried to grill burn to a crisp because I'll go in and I'll like forget about it.
01:39:43.120 And the whole damn thing will be on fire when I get out there.
01:39:45.580 And I'm like, well, steaks, we only have to cut a couple of inches off the top and the bottom.
01:39:49.940 And there should be a sliver of steak in there someplace that's edible.
01:39:55.040 Rec tech, it cooks using smart grill technology.
01:39:58.700 It knows when to adjust the temperature.
01:40:00.700 It lets me observe everything on an app.
01:40:04.620 So right now in Dallas, it's about 100 degrees and about 100 percent humidity.
01:40:11.040 And I like it about not at all.
01:40:14.460 And so standing out in front of my grill does not sound like a good idea.
01:40:20.440 But with rec tech and their smart grill technology, I'm in.
01:40:25.080 Follow rec tech on all social media.
01:40:27.060 Sign up for their newsletter.
01:40:28.100 It's rec tech.
01:40:28.780 R-A-C-T-E-Q dot com.
01:40:31.320 That's rec tech with a Q dot com.
01:40:34.640 Ten seconds.
01:40:35.220 Station ID.
01:40:35.700 You know, who are we as a people?
01:40:54.800 I heard a story the other day about a guy who's going out and he needed to do some shopping.
01:41:01.120 And it was a downtown because they didn't have malls back then.
01:41:06.360 Just like now.
01:41:08.540 He needed to do some shopping and needed to go out.
01:41:10.780 But it was raining.
01:41:11.540 So he took an umbrella with him.
01:41:13.260 He goes into the first store and he, you know, buy some stuff.
01:41:16.860 And while he's in there, it stops raining.
01:41:19.760 And then he goes to the next door and he does some stuff and buy some stuff.
01:41:23.120 And then the next door and the next door.
01:41:24.420 Well, at the end of the day, he's done all of it.
01:41:26.880 But he realizes, because it's now raining again, crap, I don't have my umbrella.
01:41:30.820 Where did I leave my umbrella?
01:41:32.080 He left it at one of the stores.
01:41:34.840 So he backtracks.
01:41:36.040 He goes to the last door.
01:41:37.680 No umbrella.
01:41:38.860 Next door.
01:41:39.360 Have you seen my umbrella?
01:41:40.160 No, I don't have your umbrella.
01:41:42.180 Next door.
01:41:42.980 Gets all the way back to the first store.
01:41:45.600 And the guy who's in the first store says, oh, my gosh, yeah, we do have your umbrella.
01:41:49.260 We were hoping you would come back.
01:41:50.840 The guy takes it and he grumbles on his way out.
01:41:53.920 Thank God for an honest man.
01:41:55.660 All the rest of the stores claimed they didn't have it.
01:42:02.200 This is what we're living in right now.
01:42:04.940 This is what we're living in.
01:42:10.480 Sometimes you really don't have a reason to be pissed.
01:42:13.620 You know?
01:42:15.400 All right.
01:42:16.900 We're going to talk a little bit about football.
01:42:18.960 Yeah.
01:42:19.580 Yeah.
01:42:20.380 Stu?
01:42:20.920 That's why you come here to this program.
01:42:22.400 Yeah.
01:42:22.940 Yeah.
01:42:23.380 Well, I actually do.
01:42:24.640 Well, I don't want to talk football.
01:42:26.300 I do.
01:42:26.800 I'm interested in the topic of the masks with what's happening with football.
01:42:32.180 And so I thought I'd bring in an expert.
01:42:34.160 And it's not Stu.
01:42:35.960 Well, I mean, you do go to Jason Whitlock when you want to hear some talk about football.
01:42:40.100 And culture.
01:42:40.960 Yeah.
01:42:41.420 Jason Whitlock's joining us in just about a minute.
01:42:44.140 Stand by.
01:42:44.420 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:42:59.200 Hey, I don't know if you've heard the good news or not, but Democrats have proposed another $5 trillion reconciliation and social reform bill.
01:43:08.020 It's great.
01:43:08.980 And by the way, did you hear Janet Yellen say that, you know, a few years ago we had to do a debt continuation thing where we're just promising, hey, we're good for this debt.
01:43:18.100 We're good for this debt.
01:43:19.100 And we won't stop paying our bills.
01:43:20.400 Yeah, it might not be good to spend another $5 trillion when she said this absolutely positively must pass.
01:43:31.060 You have to do everything possible to not default on our debts for even a minute.
01:43:37.400 OK.
01:43:38.080 All right.
01:43:38.640 Well, sounds like a good safety tip.
01:43:40.240 Maybe we're spending too much.

01:44:25.700 With its COVID protocols, the NFL is implementing medical Jim Crow and Joe Biden loves it.
01:44:33.620 That's from the latest edition of the Blaze podcast from Jason Whitlock, who's joining us now.
01:44:42.960 Hi, Jason.
01:44:44.120 Hey, Glenn.
01:44:44.860 How are you?
01:44:45.360 Happy Monday.
01:44:46.060 Yeah, thank you.
01:44:46.860 So I've been I heard this about the NFL over the weekend, and I'm not qualified to talk about it at all.
01:44:51.960 So I thought I'd let you and Stu talk about let you and Stu talk about it, you know, for the people who want something halfway accurate.
01:44:58.380 Perfect.
01:44:59.600 Perfect.
01:45:00.560 I'm here to do it.
01:45:02.060 Okay.
01:45:02.420 So what do you mean by modern-day Jim Crow?
01:45:04.660 Well, to be quite honest with you, Tucker Carlson coined the phrase medical Jim Crow a couple of months ago.
01:45:14.340 He was talking about how these COVID restrictions are going to negatively impact black Americans because we are the most reluctant by all the data.
01:45:24.860 All the data says we are the most reluctant to take the COVID vaccines.
01:45:28.840 And we're seeing it play out in the National Football League.
01:45:33.320 The NFL has implemented some rules in terms of even if you're unvaccinated and you breach any of the protocols they set up, including not having your mask on 24-7 whenever you're in the building, you're going to face a $14,000 fine.
01:45:51.100 If your team has some kind of COVID outbreak that involves an unvaccinated player, your team could be forced to forfeit games and paychecks.
01:46:02.080 All of this, all of these restrictions based on the data and the research and who's getting the vaccines are going to disproportionately impact black NFL players negatively.
01:46:14.940 And it's how these COVID restrictions, again, the left loves to talk about, oh, Jim Crow, voter suppression.
01:46:24.340 It's Jim Crow 2.0.
01:46:26.080 And look, these rules requiring an ID are going to negatively impact poor black and brown people.
01:46:33.240 And it's all BS, Glenn.
01:46:35.640 I have yet this whole voter ID deal.
01:46:40.140 It's a victimless crime in terms of I haven't seen any proof that black people are showing up at the polls and being turned away because they have no ID or they're sitting at home.
01:46:51.860 Oh, I got no idea.
01:46:52.900 I can't do voter mail or whatever.
01:46:55.600 It's all garbage.
01:46:57.120 What actually is legitimate is what's going on with these COVID restrictions, but you won't hear anybody on the left talk about it.
01:47:05.900 Okay.
01:47:06.040 So why is it that the black community is the worst at not getting vaccinated?
01:47:12.800 No group of people has been preached to more aggressively, don't trust the government.
01:47:19.760 Right.
01:47:20.660 Stu, we were right.
01:47:22.060 Stu and I were talking about this this morning and we're like, if you're black, why would you take it?
01:47:26.600 You're being told everybody is trying to kill you here.
01:47:30.500 Take this vaccine.
01:47:31.500 And look, there have been examples of the Tuskegee syphilis project that, you know, from the 1930s that really damaged black men.
01:47:43.520 And we were basically lab rats.
01:47:46.040 Yeah.
01:47:46.420 And so that's part of our history.
01:47:49.340 But again, it's part of our history.
01:47:52.560 What's going on today is corporate media and the Democratic puppet masters every day telling black people, man, this government is out to get you.
01:48:05.060 It's systemically racist.
01:48:06.600 You have no shot.
01:48:07.780 And so it makes perfect sense for black people to say, man, I'm not going to trust an experimental, an experimental vaccine that hasn't gone through all the proper normal protocols and channels that vaccines go through before they're issued in mass.
01:48:29.320 And so it makes perfect sense for us to be the least likely to go get the shot.
01:48:34.800 So why, then, is the media attacking Trump supporters when that's not that's not even true?
01:48:42.220 Why are they going after people and not mentioning blacks and Hispanics, which are far more less likely to get vaccinated?
01:48:52.520 Because all the corporate media does is lie, and they particularly lie about race issues, and they want to demonize.
01:49:03.260 Oh, my God, there's this Delta variant, and it's Trump supporters.
01:49:07.380 And again, it's almost like there are two dishonest messages confusing black people.
01:49:14.380 One is the government's out to get you, and they're plotting every day on how they can kill you.
01:49:22.440 And two is, oh, man, these Trump supporters, they're destroying America for you, and you must hate them because they're your mortal enemies.
01:49:32.220 And, Glenn, I'm going to go to my death saying Trump supporters and black people are natural allies.
01:49:41.460 Both groups need to wake up and understand we're not the elites, and, you know, it's Glenn Beck is worth a gazillion dollars.
01:49:52.740 I'm worth a lot of money.
01:49:54.560 I get when people, oh, well, you guys are elites, too.
01:49:57.600 Our mentality is an elite.
01:50:00.960 You know, our faith in a higher power makes us humble ourselves and have a different worldview.
01:50:07.100 And so even though I'm wealthy, I'm not an elite.
01:50:11.400 I have a working-class mentality.
01:50:13.820 Well, you know, beyond that, I, you know, I don't think it matters when we're all saying everyone should have the same opportunity and shot.
01:50:22.320 I don't, unlike Donnie Deutsch, who came out, can you play this for Jason, who came out this weekend and said this?
01:50:28.960 Imagine the arrogance to say this on TV.
01:50:31.180 Look, whether it's a mandate, a mask, a mandate, a vaccine is, at this point, there is a percentage of the population that, who cares whether they're angry or upset about, that this is just, there's 330 million people in this country.
01:50:44.860 We need to protect ourselves.
01:50:46.540 And as Willie and Alicia mentioned, look, there's been mandates throughout time.
01:50:51.400 I grew up having to get a smallpox vaccine.
01:50:53.380 We all did.
01:50:54.160 Other vaccines also.
01:50:55.040 So I'm done worrying about what people think.
01:50:58.380 I'm done worrying about, is there going to be a firestorm, whether it's a mandated mask, whether it's a mandated vaccine.
01:51:04.100 There's an idiot percentage of this population that just needs to be told what to do.
01:51:09.140 And guess what?
01:51:10.220 Wow.
01:51:11.360 I think that's elite.
01:51:13.120 That's elite.
01:51:15.020 That's certainly an un-American sentiment.
01:51:17.940 It's also a dangerous sentiment when, again, that's someone who, arrogant, self-important, thinks he's smarter than everybody else.
01:51:30.380 And it's literally, I promise you, I wake up every day hoping I don't make a fool out of myself with something ignorant that I do.
01:51:37.680 And that's my system of checks and balances to make sure that I act normal.
01:51:42.480 I just don't have that superiority gene that Donnie Deutch seems to have, and a lot of people on the left seem to have.
01:51:50.480 They're just smarter than everybody else, and the rest of us are just blessed to be in their presence.
01:51:55.720 In your article, you talk about a player from Arizona and Tampa that spoke out last week about this.
01:52:05.700 And you said, we can't be cowards and sheep forever.
01:52:09.520 What do you mean?
01:52:09.960 Well, DeAndre Hopkins, the Arizona Cardinal wide receiver, has expressed his reluctance and concern about the vaccine.
01:52:21.180 Leonard Fournette, who plays with Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, just won the Super Bowl.
01:52:25.640 He's tweeted out he doesn't want to get the vaccine.
01:52:28.340 And I just think that what initially started out in corporate sports media was they were going to frame Cole Beasley, this white wide receiver for the Buffalo Bills.
01:52:42.020 He was the first to start speaking up, and he was actually doing it probably on behalf of his black teammates,
01:52:51.540 who were probably too afraid to speak up because they just don't want to deal with the social media backlash.
01:52:58.000 And so the media was going to frame, like, Cole Beasley, he's the only one, and it's the white guys, and he's a Trump supporter, and, you know, he's against the vaccine.
01:53:05.720 And so I'm just glad to see DeAndre Hopkins and Leonard Fournette express what I know many black people think and feel.
01:53:18.580 The data backs it up.
01:53:20.120 That's how we think and feel.
01:53:21.540 Certainly, you know, those NFL locker rooms aren't immune to what the rest of us think and feel.
01:53:27.940 Ezekiel Elliott, you know, the Cowboys running back, came out and said, look, man, I grew up in a family where none of us got vaccinated.
01:53:35.260 We just didn't believe in any of the vaccines.
01:53:38.680 And that's prevalent among black people.
01:53:41.640 And we got to quit being in fear of the social media mob and the left framing us as idiots or sellouts or whatever.
01:53:52.640 We got to man up like DeAndre Hopkins and Leonard Fournette and Cole Beasley and speak our truth.
01:53:58.600 So do you actually believe, you said that this COVID-19 is going to make the Emancipation Proclamation, I'm trying to figure out what, I'm trying to find it.
01:54:14.520 Do you remember what you wrote?
01:54:16.040 Yeah, I said that these restrictions that the NFL are implementing are going to make,
01:54:23.800 they're going to come off like stop and frisk in old New York.
01:54:29.680 Or they're going to make stop and frisk feel like the Emancipation Proclamation in Juneteenth wrapped all into one.
01:54:36.500 Oh my gosh.
01:54:37.620 And do you believe that?
01:54:40.360 To some degree, yes.
01:54:42.200 Now look, I'm being entertaining in a column and I want to say things that people remember just like you did.
01:54:48.100 I did remember, well, I barely remembered it, but that was the line that stuck out.
01:54:52.980 Yeah, it's just an analogy.
01:54:55.500 The same way we complained about stop and frisk in New York, it's targeting black people, targeting black people.
01:55:02.660 This COVID restriction, it's targeting black NFL players.
01:55:07.420 The data speaks for itself.
01:55:12.440 Jason, thank you so much.
01:55:14.320 By the way, is it okay to be happy that the Team USA is not doing good?
01:55:23.240 Thank you.
01:55:25.980 Yeah.
01:55:26.980 I didn't write it in my column, but I was rooting for France.
01:55:31.940 Right?
01:55:32.380 I don't want to see these guys on a medal stand irritating me.
01:55:37.560 So I'd rather them lose than get on the medal stand and do any type of protest and irritate me.
01:55:42.660 Yeah, it just felt wrong because I remember rooting against the Soviet Union, and I've never rooted against the American team.
01:55:50.920 And I'm kind of there.
01:55:51.860 I'm like, I don't want them to win.
01:55:53.780 I don't want them to win.
01:55:55.260 Thank you so much.
01:55:56.160 I appreciate it.
01:55:57.200 Thank you.
01:55:57.720 You bet.
01:55:58.100 Bye-bye.
01:56:00.780 He knew right where I was going.
01:56:02.080 Oh, yeah.
01:56:02.540 He knew.
01:56:02.820 Leslie lives in Maryland.
01:56:04.980 She writes in about her dog's experience with Rough Green.
01:56:06.920 She says, my three-year-old Chinese.
01:56:09.560 Oh, my gosh.
01:56:10.480 She's got a Chinese dog.
01:56:12.760 Well, don't worry.
01:56:13.480 The Justice Department will not investigate anything.
01:56:16.880 She says, my Chinese crested powder puff.
01:56:21.740 Wow, that sounds like.
01:56:23.280 She says, it's frustratingly picky.
01:56:25.620 Really?
01:56:26.120 You got a dog named a powder puff, and it's picky?
01:56:28.740 Who would have seen that coming?
01:56:29.600 We're just talking about elitists, too.
01:56:31.640 And here we see one.
01:56:32.420 I threw away more food than she ate.
01:56:34.620 I tried every possible food and even tried cooking it for her, as you can imagine.
01:56:39.200 That got very old.
01:56:40.720 But then I tried Rough Greens.
01:56:42.200 I don't even have to clean her bowl.
01:56:43.860 She cleans it and leaves no trace that there was ever any food in it at all.
01:56:48.980 Apparently, she loves the taste, and I'm glad to give her the nutrients that she needs to stay healthy.
01:56:54.540 Thank you so much.
01:56:55.720 P.S.
01:56:56.080 I do still wash her bowl anyway.
01:56:58.000 Leslie, thank you for writing in.
01:57:00.100 I don't wash this bowl, but that's the difference.
01:57:02.420 You can get a free bag of Rough Greens for your dog to try out, especially if they're picky.
01:57:07.640 Just try it.
01:57:08.300 All you pay for is shipping.
01:57:09.960 You try it for a week and see if they like it and they eat it.
01:57:13.100 And if so, then order a real bag of Rough Greens and then watch your dog change over time.
01:57:19.520 It's Rough Greens, 833-GLEN-33.
01:57:21.600 833-GLEN-33.
01:57:23.420 It's roughgreens.com slash Beck.
01:57:26.660 888-727-BECK.
01:57:30.440 Hey, Stu, I don't know if you saw this, but optimism has dropped almost 20 points since
01:57:41.120 May of the American people.
01:57:43.340 Since May?
01:57:44.040 Since May.
01:57:44.600 Yeah, since May.
01:57:46.240 This May.
01:57:46.960 This last May.
01:57:47.880 Just a couple months ago.
01:57:49.140 2021.
01:57:50.000 Yeah.
01:57:50.900 People are less optimistic about the future.
01:57:53.760 That actually does surprise me.
01:57:55.800 It does?
01:57:56.100 Because you think coming out of COVID, out of the race riots.
01:57:58.500 No, because we're going right back in.
01:57:59.600 They know we're going right back in.
01:58:02.360 Really?
01:58:02.960 Yeah.
01:58:03.360 Yeah.
01:58:03.620 I think most people are like, nah, it's coming back.
01:58:06.920 Yeah, they're going to do it.
01:58:07.820 If Texas doesn't, I ain't going.
01:58:10.160 I'm not going.
01:58:10.760 I don't think any.
01:58:11.300 Do you think any red state?
01:58:12.560 Nope.
01:58:12.780 Certainly a governor.
01:58:13.520 Let's just say you happen to live in a state with a governor who may have aspirations
01:58:16.600 for the presidency.
01:58:18.120 Or just to be reelected.
01:58:19.740 Nope.
01:58:20.040 Or just to be reelected.
01:58:20.760 Yeah, exactly.
01:58:21.400 Nope.
01:58:21.900 Not happening.
01:58:22.360 By the way, did you hear the crowd in, where was it, Arizona, that went after, do we have
01:58:29.820 this audio by any chance?
01:58:31.900 I think I sent it.
01:58:32.800 No, we don't.
01:58:33.660 Oh, shoot.
01:58:34.280 You got to look this up.
01:58:35.480 She was running, I think, or she is an Arizona senator and she's running for reelection.
01:58:42.340 But she was the only senator that said, nah, we don't need to check these numbers.
01:58:47.340 Nah, let's just, let's move on.
01:58:50.100 They didn't let her speak.
01:58:51.520 She got up at the big convention and, mm-mm, not speaking.
01:58:58.600 I don't know, I tend to pull back from the idea of not letting people speak.
01:59:03.520 I feel like letting people speak is usually a good thing, even when you don't like them,
01:59:06.600 because then they wind up saying dumb things you can later point to.
01:59:09.340 Yeah, I am too.
01:59:10.060 I mean, I'd much rather see everybody get up and turn their back on them and just face
01:59:15.000 the other direction.
01:59:15.640 Let them speak.
01:59:16.540 We're just looking in the back of the room.
01:59:18.360 That's all we're doing.
01:59:19.320 What do you mean?
01:59:20.080 We're letting you speak.
01:59:20.740 We believe in freedom of speech.
01:59:21.940 Speak all you want.
01:59:22.680 We're not watching.
01:59:23.360 You're listening to you.
01:59:24.200 Nope.
01:59:24.920 And then when you say, good night, everybody, we all just sit back down like nothing happened.
01:59:29.180 I think that would be great.
01:59:30.440 But, uh.
01:59:31.260 Does sound like a, that doesn't sound childish to you at all?
01:59:35.780 No.
01:59:37.360 No.
01:59:38.080 I think people are, I think people are just pissed.
01:59:40.820 Yeah.
01:59:40.940 I think they're, you know, they're not where they were, you know, 10 or 12 years ago when
01:59:44.520 they first started speaking up and like, hey, hey, let everybody speak.
01:59:48.160 Like, no, I think they're kind of past that.
01:59:50.120 When it comes to their own side, you know, you get way to hold it just a second.
01:59:55.260 Wait.
01:59:55.760 You didn't even want to open up the door so we could see what was going on.
02:00:00.880 You you're you're.
02:00:01.820 Yeah.
02:00:02.040 Really?
02:00:02.820 Right.
02:00:03.700 Uh, no, I don't think so.
02:00:05.460 It's just, yeah, I don't think so.
02:00:07.460 Why?
02:00:08.000 Why would you show up to an event?
02:00:09.580 Oh, like that.
02:00:10.500 It doesn't seem to make any sense.
02:00:11.600 She had to have known, right?
02:00:14.180 Are they that out of touch, even locally, that they're like, no, they'll love me.
02:00:19.900 I don't know.
02:00:20.680 I, that's an interesting question.
02:00:21.860 I mean, I think sometimes there are people who think if they can get in front of a crowd,
02:00:25.600 they can turn people around.
02:00:27.980 Well, I can.
02:00:28.460 And you've, you've done it in all seriousness, you've done it at very hostile events.
02:00:33.660 I've seen it happen.
02:00:34.680 Yeah.
02:00:34.920 Where you'll go out there and they will basically, they'll be like, all of a sudden you start
02:00:38.680 speaking and there's a bunch of red dots moving around on your chest.
02:00:41.300 I know.
02:00:41.620 You're like, wait a minute.
02:00:42.800 I thought you guys didn't like guns.
02:00:44.500 Why are these all on my.
02:00:46.760 You're able to turn them around.
02:00:47.980 I mean, that people do get that in their heads, but you should, you need to know where you're
02:00:51.440 going and what your audience is.
02:00:53.040 Yeah.
02:00:53.520 And I don't think that was, it's not going to go well for her in a reelection.
02:00:56.400 I'm just, my, she runs as a Democrat or maybe an independent.
02:01:01.760 I don't think it's going to go well.
02:01:03.400 I don't think it's going to go well.
02:01:04.800 Hey, have a great day, especially if you're a Senator from Arizona.
02:01:10.320 Hey, just go on and take on the day.
02:01:14.100 This is the Glenn Beck program.
