00:00:00.000 Let me talk to you a little bit about Rough Greens.
00:00:01.900 We all owe it to our dogs to do our best to make sure that they're happy and healthy throughout their life.
00:00:08.920 I saw a dog today that I think my wife sent me.
00:00:15.140 It is a, what do you call it?
00:00:17.440 Is it Marmaduke?
00:00:21.100 Marmaduke?
00:00:22.280 Marmaduke was a cartoon.
00:00:23.580 Yeah, so I think it's a Malad.
00:00:24.880 Okay.
00:00:25.220 It's one of the dogs that used to pull the sleds in Alaska and probably still do.
00:00:29.500 And they've been breeding them to be bigger.
00:00:32.860 It was up to this woman's shoulders.
00:00:35.880 It was like, are you, what?
00:00:38.320 I mean, you're going to need a truck just to clear the front yard of the, anyway.
00:00:45.140 Rough Greens, take care of your dog.
00:00:46.940 I can't imagine how much Rough Greens you would need for that dog.
00:00:49.820 Rough Greens, are you ffgreens.com slash back?
00:00:53.120 It's roughgreens.com slash back or call 833-GLEN-33.
00:00:57.700 You're going to get your first bag free.
00:01:00.660 Then start feeding your dog if they eat it and love it as much as Uno does.
00:01:04.760 And then watch the differences in your dog.
00:01:06.920 833-GLEN-33.
00:01:08.380 Rough Greens.com slash back.
00:01:09.980 We've got no room to compromise.
00:01:27.040 We've got to stand together.
00:01:28.980 It's the course of life.
00:01:33.040 Stand up, stand up, hold the line.
00:01:35.900 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:51.780 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:54.240 Hello, America.
00:01:59.060 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:00.840 We're glad you're here.
00:02:01.780 It is Fight Back Friday.
00:02:03.700 We've got some great news for you.
00:02:05.520 We begin in 60 seconds.
00:02:07.920 I don't ever recommend things that I don't believe in.
00:02:11.640 If I don't use them or if I don't know somebody who uses them, I will not recommend them.
00:02:16.560 When I tell you I believe in Relief Factor, you probably know the story.
00:02:23.420 It is something that I didn't endorse.
00:02:26.200 They were running commercials for a very long time and I didn't use the product.
00:02:31.460 And they wanted me to voice for it.
00:02:32.880 And I said, I'm not going to tell people to ingest stuff into their body that I don't know about and I don't believe in.
00:02:40.100 And I never thought this stuff would work, quite honestly.
00:02:43.220 My wife, when I was whining, she was like, why don't you at least try Relief Factor?
00:02:49.180 Just try it.
00:02:50.000 She's the one that brought it up.
00:02:51.860 So I tried it because you wouldn't listen to me whine anymore unless I tried everything.
00:02:55.540 And I tried it for three weeks.
00:02:57.180 Now I'm doing commercials for them because it worked for me.
00:03:01.060 Will it work for you?
00:03:02.200 I don't know.
00:03:02.580 You got about a 70% chance of it working.
00:03:05.100 It's worth the $19.95, the three-week quick start just to find out if it works.
00:03:09.900 800-4-RELIEF.
00:03:11.260 1-800-4-RELIEF.
00:03:12.600 Get your life back.
00:03:13.600 Get out of pain.
00:03:14.560 1-800-4-RELIEF.
00:03:16.380 Or relieffactor.com.
00:03:18.480 Feel the difference.
00:03:21.220 Well, hello, Steel.
00:03:22.080 How are you?
00:03:23.020 Very well, Glenn.
00:03:23.900 Yes.
00:03:24.600 Yes.
00:03:25.340 Very well.
00:03:26.100 Very well.
00:03:26.760 Very well, indeed.
00:03:27.500 Did you see that Joe Biden couldn't remember where he was just a couple of weeks ago or a week ago?
00:03:39.620 Can you remember where you were two weeks ago?
00:03:43.860 Well, if I were in Ireland, maybe.
00:03:48.320 Yeah, no.
00:03:48.940 Could you please play Cut 17 for me?
00:03:52.060 It's a long time ago.
00:03:53.700 It's a long.
00:03:54.380 It's a whole week.
00:03:55.620 Yeah.
00:03:56.020 It's too.
00:03:56.340 It's too much.
00:03:57.000 A whole week.
00:03:57.180 The last country I've traveled, I'm thinking once was the last one I was in.
00:04:00.420 And I've been to 89, I've met with 89 heads of state so far.
00:04:06.800 Yeah.
00:04:07.120 So I'm trying to think, where was the last place I was?
00:04:10.260 It's hard to keep track.
00:04:11.360 Listen.
00:04:13.120 Ireland.
00:04:13.700 I mean, yeah, you're right.
00:04:15.780 Ireland.
00:04:16.660 Okay.
00:04:17.300 That's where it was.
00:04:18.000 Like a three-year-old, remember.
00:04:20.020 It's Ireland.
00:04:21.260 A three-year-old.
00:04:23.600 And then he gets all creepy.
00:04:26.340 That's right, little girl.
00:04:27.960 How do you know that?
00:04:29.940 Because I was watching you through your windows at night, creepy old man.
00:04:35.340 I mean, it's weird.
00:04:37.440 Really weird.
00:04:38.480 Really weird.
00:04:39.120 Again, if it was six months ago, I mean, maybe.
00:04:45.200 It was last week.
00:04:46.720 Last week.
00:04:47.280 Last week.
00:04:49.600 I can't remember the last time.
00:04:52.740 It's like me saying, I can't remember the last time I went potty.
00:04:56.420 I don't know.
00:04:58.520 Probably a couple hours ago.
00:05:01.820 Jeez.
00:05:02.900 And where, when did I go potty last?
00:05:05.860 Uh, what you just did in your pants.
00:05:09.300 Did you see the comment from Jen Psaki on, there's an article, I think it was an Axios, about Biden's age.
00:05:16.940 And they were talking about, you know, how some people have noticed that he's 43,000 years old.
00:05:23.660 And they, Jen Psaki, who is his press secretary, they highlighted comments about, that she had about, what was it?
00:05:32.740 It was, I think the banking crisis.
00:05:34.180 Like, you know, this was a big announcement from, from Joe Biden, because he did it at 9.15.
00:05:41.320 And you're like, wait, 9.15 a.m.?
00:05:44.940 Like, that's notable?
00:05:46.400 And then she said something like, I should get the exact quote, but it was something like, yeah, he never does anything before nine.
00:05:53.100 This is the person who's on his side, now an MSNBC host, but his former press secretary, saying.
00:05:59.180 But they often say, he's done with the business of the day by 9.30.
00:06:05.100 Yeah, he had a, he had a 9.03 lid the other day, and he doesn't do anything before nine.
00:06:10.240 That only gives him three minutes.
00:06:12.500 But three minutes is an awful lot of time if you're the president of the United States.
00:06:16.260 I will say, I think it's too much time for him.
00:06:17.920 I think he should do less.
00:06:19.380 Because when he works, things get worse.
00:06:22.560 Yeah, well, you know, you, you may be absolutely right on that.
00:06:25.800 But listen, he has experience because he's so old.
00:06:30.640 He has experience.
00:06:32.000 If the dinosaurs ever come back, he'll remember maybe how they were fought.
00:06:39.040 And maybe he'll save us.
00:06:41.340 Like, so a Jurassic Park situation plays out.
00:06:43.600 And they are making woolly mammoths.
00:06:46.520 They're making woolly mammoth.
00:06:48.600 They're remaking.
00:06:49.500 Can someone please watch a movie from time to time?
00:06:56.740 We're doing all the things every day that we've all seen in huge movies.
00:07:02.500 We're like, oh, wow, we'd never do that.
00:07:05.220 We're doing it.
00:07:06.420 We're doing all the, especially the AI stuff.
00:07:08.820 We're just like, screw it.
00:07:10.240 You know what?
00:07:10.820 What are the odds?
00:07:12.060 What are the odds?
00:07:12.820 Let's just try all these things and see what happens.
00:07:15.260 What are the odds we make one minor mistake?
00:07:18.000 It's very low, right?
00:07:19.760 Let's take some of that woolly mammoth DA, mix it with some frog DNA, put it in an elephant,
00:07:26.420 see what happens.
00:07:27.140 And let's try, on top of that, let's try some gain of function research.
00:07:30.280 Let's see what happens.
00:07:30.820 Let's give that a whirl.
00:07:31.960 You know what?
00:07:32.480 It didn't work out in China.
00:07:33.980 We should do it in Wisconsin.
00:07:36.380 Whoops.
00:07:37.020 Yeah.
00:07:37.380 Did you hear about that?
00:07:38.760 Oh, they're trying to do it in Wisconsin now.
00:07:40.800 No, no, no.
00:07:42.260 There was a lab leak in Wisconsin.
00:07:45.220 Oh, gosh.
00:07:46.140 Okay?
00:07:46.620 But they said, and they never reported it.
00:07:49.080 And they were like, well, nobody got sick.
00:07:53.080 You should report that right away.
00:07:56.100 We're like, all right, Bill, I guess if weeping, open, bloody sores open up, give me a call.
00:08:04.460 We'll let everybody know.
00:08:06.260 What are we doing?
00:08:08.360 That's incredible that they, like, we keep talking about this as if it's some past phenomenon.
00:08:13.600 Like, hey, they did that in, you know, in China.
00:08:16.520 It's still happening.
00:08:17.700 There's been nothing that's stopped it.
00:08:20.480 The only thing that's happened is we're focusing on it more.
00:08:23.020 So maybe there's a lesser chance that we directly fund it.
00:08:26.820 Outside of that.
00:08:27.720 No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:08:29.280 Directly.
00:08:29.820 No.
00:08:30.300 I think the word directly is key.
00:08:32.000 We weren't directly funding it last time.
00:08:35.500 Right.
00:08:35.900 I just think there's less of a chance that we would do it now.
00:08:38.900 I think we'd stay the indirect route.
00:08:41.220 Okay, good.
00:08:42.060 All right.
00:08:42.600 Well, I feel much better.
00:08:44.720 I feel much, much better.
00:08:47.240 I don't know if anybody saw this.
00:08:49.020 It's in our show prep today.
00:08:50.860 If you get our show prep at glennbeck.com, you'll get all of the news that you need to know.
00:08:55.820 And I'm kind of bypassing a lot of the news because it's Friday.
00:08:59.840 All right.
00:09:01.320 You know, the world's on fire.
00:09:03.240 Why do I have to tell you?
00:09:05.140 Honestly, if you're not prepared at this point.
00:09:08.120 What use, what use is me saying, hey, by the way, have you seen the dollar crashed even more?
00:09:17.120 No, there's no real reason for that.
00:09:19.220 Just enjoy your way into insanity.
00:09:22.760 For those who are prepared, let me tell you what they found with deep space.
00:09:28.780 Now listen to this.
00:09:30.120 Before I read this sentence, can we just stop writing things in the news and pretending that everyone knows?
00:09:47.220 You know how like when they were like, I can't think of any of the terms, but all those terms, those woke terms that came out were like, what the hell is that word?
00:09:57.920 And everybody was writing it in their news articles and you're like, I don't even know what that means.
00:10:02.460 Yeah.
00:10:02.800 Okay.
00:10:03.200 When they introduce new language like that, that's often the way it plays out.
00:10:07.060 Correct.
00:10:07.520 And things like, oh, we're teaching in third grade now that your little girl can be a boy.
00:10:17.120 And we're telling them that and we're showing them what to do with all kinds of vegetables and their private parts.
00:10:22.240 And you're like, wait.
00:10:23.300 You mean gender affirming care?
00:10:24.680 Yes.
00:10:25.000 Right.
00:10:25.320 Sorry.
00:10:25.880 Sorry.
00:10:26.140 Thank you.
00:10:26.480 And you're like, wait, am I the only one that didn't know this?
00:10:30.020 No, no one knows it except the experts.
00:10:33.300 And they all pretend like, oh, this has been going on for a long time.
00:10:36.600 So let me read this sentence.
00:10:39.940 Thousands of deep space radio signals have made their way to Earth.
00:10:46.000 50 of them are repeating sources.
00:10:51.700 Wait, hold it.
00:10:54.800 What?
00:10:55.320 Isn't that one of those things that we're looking for?
00:11:00.640 You know, those little space anomalies like, help.
00:11:03.580 And you're like, oh, it's probably not.
00:11:05.840 I think I heard help.
00:11:07.420 But listen again.
00:11:08.580 Anybody else calling for help?
00:11:10.900 Nope.
00:11:11.560 Okay.
00:11:11.860 So that was just, that was a weird thing that sounded like somebody was crying for help.
00:11:16.240 Okay.
00:11:16.680 We got that all the time.
00:11:19.960 Repeating help.
00:11:21.380 Did you just hear somebody call help?
00:11:23.960 Help.
00:11:24.500 Yeah.
00:11:24.680 I heard it again.
00:11:26.640 Help.
00:11:28.180 Okay.
00:11:28.620 When it repeats, that's something we should probably know about it.
00:11:33.600 Recently detected were 25 new repeating sources known technically as fast radio bursts from the depths of the universe.
00:11:44.220 The project uses high power radio telescope in British Columbia to, oh, this is a Canadian study.
00:11:51.540 Oh, forget it.
00:11:52.560 Never mind.
00:11:53.740 All right.
00:11:55.400 And the Tucker Carlson.
00:11:57.260 Wow.
00:11:57.600 You just took the entire country?
00:11:59.400 You just blew off there?
00:12:00.520 Well, have you seen what's going on in Canada?
00:12:02.820 They did elect Trudeau.
00:12:04.060 Yeah.
00:12:04.900 So I'm not, I'm not really, I'm not really sure if we can take that.
00:12:11.380 Let me tell you about Tucker Carlson's video.
00:12:15.020 Have you seen this morning?
00:12:18.060 He released it, what, yesterday or the night before last?
00:12:21.800 72 million views.
00:12:25.580 72 million views.
00:12:29.300 I think that's a little higher than the ratings he had at Fox.
00:12:36.540 72 million.
00:12:38.000 Now that should give you a great hope.
00:12:41.680 Because that's not just the conservatives spreading that one around.
00:12:47.660 That tells you an awful lot.
00:12:49.840 When you couple 72 million views with, what were the ratings?
00:12:55.840 Night before last?
00:12:57.400 I don't have the numbers in front of me, but.
00:12:59.300 They had dropped to the lowest level since 9-11.
00:13:06.500 I'm sorry, what?
00:13:07.560 No.
00:13:08.760 You mean this last September 11th?
00:13:10.800 No.
00:13:11.500 No.
00:13:11.780 9-11, 2001.
00:13:13.740 Wow.
00:13:14.220 Yeah.
00:13:14.760 We're going back to almost the 90s.
00:13:17.320 They have not had ratings that low.
00:13:20.600 Yeah.
00:13:21.460 Since before 9-11.
00:13:22.720 Yes, Glenn.
00:13:23.480 And this will hit maybe not many people in the audience, but will hit you.
00:13:27.580 The ratings on Fox News Channel in the 8 p.m. time slot were lower than our ratings at CNN Headline News.
00:13:39.380 Now, and only people that watched that were people who were trapped in an airport.
00:13:46.760 They were trapped.
00:13:48.640 They're like, I guess I watched his show.
00:13:52.060 It didn't have the sound on, so I really enjoyed it.
00:13:54.980 Yeah.
00:13:55.880 Oh, my gosh.
00:13:57.480 Jaw-dropping.
00:13:58.960 What was the number?
00:14:00.140 It was in the 130s, I think, in the demo, which is, again, what they actually care about.
00:14:05.660 In a country of 350 million people, 130,000, let's just be fair, 140,000 people between the ages of 25 and 54 were watching Fox News.
00:14:24.000 That's not good.
00:14:25.800 Yeah, and I don't know who hosted.
00:14:27.020 I know the first night was Brian Kilmeade.
00:14:28.840 This is not Brian Kilmeade, anti-Brian Kilmeade sentiment.
00:14:31.640 I feel really bad for Brian.
00:14:34.460 Brian, when they called him up on Friday morning, he said, hey, you're going to fill in for Tucker Carlson tonight.
00:14:40.900 He must have went, oh, good God, no, not me.
00:14:44.720 Why am I the one?
00:14:46.180 Are you just testing out the guillotine?
00:14:48.440 That's all you're doing.
00:14:49.540 No problems.
00:14:50.760 It's an impossible spot for Brian, not his fault at all.
00:14:53.280 I feel bad for him.
00:14:53.920 But it is an amazing thing here.
00:14:55.520 People are telling Fox News, hey, this is not okay.
00:14:58.840 I have something else on that, people saying, this is not okay, and I think people getting the message.
00:15:08.060 Somebody called in yesterday.
00:15:09.980 Her name is Allison, and she wanted to tell me, after hearing one of the commercials for Preborn,
00:15:17.760 she wanted to tell me about her experience, and so I asked her to come on today.
00:15:22.680 Allison, are you there?
00:15:25.020 Yes, I am.
00:15:26.040 How are you?
00:15:27.600 I'm good.
00:15:28.580 Thank you.
00:15:29.080 How are you?
00:15:29.700 Very good.
00:15:30.140 Now, you're in Georgia?
00:15:32.620 Yes, I am.
00:15:33.960 And tell me your story.
00:15:38.680 Okay, here it goes.
00:15:39.740 First of all, I just want to praise you for supporting this company and what they're doing, and here's why.
00:15:47.620 When I was 16 years old, I had an abortion.
00:15:54.200 I've never told anyone this.
00:15:58.540 Yeah.
00:15:58.900 And I was young and stupid, you know, and didn't know how the world works, and I went to this clinic, and, of course, you pay with cash, and I did want to talk to somebody, you know, because I was, you know, terrified.
00:16:14.900 I did not need my mother's consent, by the way, or my parents' consent, and I was told, you know, I asked them, well, you know, what exactly is happening?
00:16:26.600 You know, I mean, how far along, you know, am I?
00:16:32.380 I was right at 10 weeks, and I said, well, you know, is the baby, you know, is it formed?
00:16:40.640 And they said, oh, no, it's just a clump of cells, you know.
00:16:45.700 I said, would you be able to tell what sex it is?
00:16:48.420 They said, oh, no, no, there's no, you know, nothing, you know, there's no baby, it's just a clump of cells.
00:16:54.700 Oh, my gosh.
00:16:56.100 So, with that information, you know, it's almost like I was looking for a reason not to do it.
00:17:01.960 Somebody talked me out of this, and so I went through with it, and I have lived to regret it every day of my life.
00:17:10.860 And now I'm 61 years old.
00:17:14.100 I beg God for forgiveness every day of my life for taking my child's life.
00:17:20.300 I know it is one of the deadly sins.
00:17:24.220 And if other women hear my story and you're in the same situation, I challenge you to support this program.
00:17:35.560 And pay the $28 or whatever it is to, you know, it might save, it will save a child.
00:17:43.600 Because if I had heard that heartbeat, there's no way I would have gone through with it.
00:17:49.760 Because I would have known that this is a live being in me.
00:17:55.740 It would have made it real.
00:17:58.520 And that's what these girls need to hear.
00:18:01.100 And when they talk about you have a choice, you know, I'm all for having a choice.
00:18:08.080 Your choice is not to have unprotected sex.
00:18:12.620 That's the choice you make.
00:18:15.240 And whatever you do after that, you have to live with the consequences.
00:18:19.020 And believe me, I have lived with the consequences.
00:18:22.180 Thankfully, God blessed me with two beautiful children and five beautiful grandchildren.
00:18:27.420 And I'm so blessed.
00:18:29.800 But I cry for my unborn child.
00:18:34.580 Allison, I can't thank you enough for having the guts to share that, especially the first time with anybody.
00:18:41.440 Thank you for sharing that.
00:18:43.000 And I know God, and I know God has nothing but love for you and your child.
00:18:50.880 And let it go.
00:18:53.880 Let it go.
00:18:55.000 Thank you so much for calling in.
00:18:56.620 Listen, Preborn is our sponsor this half hour.
00:19:01.400 They are rescuing babies by providing ultrasounds.
00:19:05.720 And $15,000 buys a new ultrasound machine.
00:19:09.540 If you have the money, Tanya and I have purchased, I think, a couple of them.
00:19:14.360 And if you have the money, please join us in this.
00:19:18.120 I don't think there's anything that we could do that would be better.
00:19:20.400 It saves not only the baby, but it saves the mother as well.
00:19:23.860 Dial pound 250, say the keyword baby for 28 bucks.
00:19:27.720 That pays for an ultrasound.
00:19:29.580 28 bucks.
00:19:30.800 And the mom has a great chance of changing her mind.

00:19:44.100 10 seconds.
00:19:44.800 Station ID.
00:19:49.820 Kind of lost my track of thought here.
00:19:58.020 What were we talking about right before that?
00:19:59.660 That's an incredible phone call.
00:20:01.180 Yeah.
00:20:01.560 We were talking about Fox News's ratings here.
00:20:04.380 Post.
00:20:04.740 And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, it is about Bud Light.
00:20:11.160 Have you heard what's happening with Budweiser?
00:20:17.460 Budweiser had to have a meeting with their 400 distributors.
00:20:22.540 And apparently they all left a little even more pissed off than they were when they got there.
00:20:29.460 Really?
00:20:29.560 Yeah, they said they never apologized.
00:20:33.020 They never said, hey, we understand all the lost business that you've had to deal with, et cetera, et cetera.
00:20:41.060 And they said, you know, Bush didn't come up with.
00:20:45.180 They just said, we're going to spend a lot more money.
00:20:46.900 On what?
00:20:48.040 Doing what?
00:20:48.620 How are you going to get all of these people back?
00:20:50.740 The reason why I wanted to share this is this is the key to places like Coca-Cola.
00:20:58.360 Anyone who has local distributors and bottlers, when it's locally produced, you hit the local guys and they most likely agree with you.
00:21:12.820 And they're the ones that got Budweiser's attention.
00:21:17.240 It's not just the loss of business.
00:21:21.240 It's the fact that they had a loss of business and the local people were the ones standing up going, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:31.960 You're driving us out of business.
00:21:34.340 Why should we bottle and distribute you?
00:21:36.780 That's the key to these things.
00:21:42.080 And just saying, you know, I don't think it's enough that you take these people who, you know, this woman that was, you know, in charge of this campaign, she has been put on a leave of absence.
00:21:57.440 But she called Bud Light a brand of fratty, kind of out-of-touch humor, and it needed something for young drinkers.
00:22:06.300 Really?
00:22:07.440 Okay, well, just flush years and years and decades of credibility right down the toilet to grab what?
00:22:17.820 How many people agreed with that?
00:22:20.020 What are you, nuts?
00:22:20.740 I don't think it, I mean, well, anyway.
00:22:24.880 All you need to know is, congratulations, another win.
00:22:29.800 And if you want to hit people like Coca-Cola or things like that, you go for the distributors and the bottlers.
00:22:42.180 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:22:44.200 A lot of good things going on in Florida these days.
00:22:46.660 One of them is Let Us Do Good Village.
00:22:50.700 Let Us Do Good Village.
00:22:52.440 It's in Land of Lakes.
00:22:54.360 It is the first of planned series of communities of about 100 homes set up by the Tunnel to Towers Foundation for Gold Star Families.
00:23:02.040 The first family to move in were the Thorntons, Daniel and her children, Jalen and Kinsley.
00:23:07.560 Their dad, her husband, Robert, the father of the family, was killed.
00:23:14.640 And when that happened and he was in the line of duty, he was given a mortgage-free home there.
00:23:20.920 It's the Let Us Do Good Village.
00:23:23.260 Gold Star Families and their families have fallen first responders as well as families of those who are catastrophically injured.
00:23:30.660 They're all neighbors.
00:23:32.000 The kids grow up with each other.
00:23:33.960 They can relate to each other.
00:23:35.660 There's so many good things that come out of this.

00:24:05.660 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:24:28.640 I'm just learning all kinds of new stuff from Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed.
00:24:33.340 Pat, you had an expert on today about the moon landing.
00:24:39.620 Well, he exposes the hoax, yes.
00:24:41.920 Okay.
00:24:42.500 The moon landing.
00:24:44.280 Right.
00:24:44.640 You say that with air quotes now.
00:24:45.980 I do.
00:24:46.400 I do.
00:24:47.280 Wow.
00:24:47.760 You can't have someone on about the moon landing because there was no moon landing.
00:24:50.980 No moon landing.
00:24:51.860 Right.
00:24:52.040 Sure.
00:24:52.460 We all know that.
00:24:53.380 So it's like, fly me to the moon.
00:24:56.160 Yeah, right.
00:24:56.640 We can't.
00:24:57.480 Okay.
00:24:57.680 Because it's never happened and it never will.
00:25:00.400 Okay.
00:25:00.520 All right.
00:25:00.900 So what?
00:25:01.980 So is that because of the flat earth that we can't?
00:25:05.640 Okay.
00:25:06.160 I talked to Bart Sabrill about this and he's not a flat earth guy.
00:25:09.780 Okay.
00:25:10.100 He just claims we haven't gone to the moon and one of his things is it's never happened
00:25:16.400 in the history of the world where technology has gone backwards after 50 years because,
00:25:21.580 okay, 54 years ago, we went to the moon, haven't been able to do it since.
00:25:25.280 We're now supposedly, supposedly trying to get back there, but we can't because this technology
00:25:30.920 still doesn't exist.
00:25:32.800 That's not true.
00:25:34.340 None of that is true.
00:25:35.320 Oh, yeah.
00:25:35.980 NASA destroyed all of the technological gains they made.
00:25:40.660 Okay.
00:25:41.300 Well, how do you, A, explain many of the pieces of the NASA Apollo program that I have just
00:25:50.440 across the brickyard here at the museum?
00:25:52.680 Oh, like what?
00:25:53.880 Yeah.
00:25:54.220 Like what?
00:25:55.200 Yeah.
00:25:56.100 Yeah.
00:25:56.580 I'm on Pat's side now.
00:25:57.880 Okay.
00:25:58.920 Okay.
00:25:59.400 After that question.
00:26:00.580 Okay, boys.
00:26:01.260 That's because you appreciate logic, Stu.
00:26:03.540 Okay, so they just made up stuff and it's not true that we can't get to the moon the way
00:26:09.160 we used to.
00:26:10.340 I just don't think it's like, it's like saying, uh, you know, we can't go to grandma's house
00:26:16.360 like we used to and a horse and buggy because we're not building a horse and buggies or, or
00:26:22.320 model T's.
00:26:23.460 No, we're building new things and sometimes those new things don't work right away, especially
00:26:32.520 if they're all one-offs.
00:26:34.040 What we're doing is, uh, uh, Starship is much more powerful than the Saturn V rocket.
00:26:43.300 Look how many times that's exploded.
00:26:45.560 Yeah.
00:26:45.840 It just exploded.
00:26:46.340 Right?
00:26:46.940 It just did again, right?
00:26:49.580 It was the biggest, most powerful-
00:26:50.580 Do you know how hard it is?
00:26:52.720 That's his point.
00:26:53.620 It's too hard.
00:26:54.420 It's not too hard.
00:26:56.260 He's done it.
00:26:57.500 How do you explain?
00:26:59.240 I've stood at the launch pads, you know, a mile away from the launch pad, otherwise I've
00:27:05.720 been burned up, but I stood at the launch pad.
00:27:08.640 I watched the space shuttles go up.
00:27:10.680 So they're saying they kept you a mile away of this thing they were supposedly doing.
00:27:14.740 And he's not denying the space shuttle.
00:27:16.600 We can orbit the earth.
00:27:17.700 We just can't go to the sun, the, uh, the moon.
00:27:20.220 Well, we can't go to the sun.
00:27:22.840 So another one of the problems is that there's that, uh, Van Ellen, uh, radiation belt, which
00:27:30.100 you can't get through or you'd die.
00:27:31.520 And that's one of the, that's one of the main reasons, of course, because you got to go through
00:27:35.120 the radiation belt and it would kill you.
00:27:36.900 That I don't know about the radiation.
00:27:38.780 Yeah.
00:27:39.020 There's a, there's a radiation belt, but NASA says we go through it so fast.
00:27:43.060 It doesn't, it doesn't really affect people.
00:27:45.220 If you lingered there, it would do you some harm.
00:27:48.040 So in other words, x-rays can't be used because we die from the radiation of an x-ray and NASA
00:27:57.260 is like, no, we just expose you to it quickly.
00:28:01.240 Okay.
00:28:01.600 All right.
00:28:02.640 Well, that seems like a logical response to that.
00:28:05.740 It kind of does.
00:28:06.480 Yeah.
00:28:07.220 Uh, but he says it's not.
00:28:08.680 He cites a man who says, no, it's not possible to go through the, and I said, that's one guy.
00:28:13.380 What are you working for NASA?
00:28:15.060 How much are they paying you?
00:28:18.720 Yeah.
00:28:19.380 I'm working for NASA.
00:28:20.860 And people don't realize that you are in fact, working for NASA.
00:28:23.680 Yeah.
00:28:23.960 One of your main sponsors.
00:28:24.860 Which is only, which only exists to remind people of how great like mathematics were
00:28:33.180 back in ancient times with the Muslims.
00:28:37.060 What is the actual, I mean, if you were to boil down the reason we haven't been back to
00:28:41.260 the moon, it's kind of just that we didn't think it's really worth it.
00:28:44.020 Right.
00:28:44.380 We thought we had better priorities up there.
00:28:47.320 That's what we've been spending our money on.
00:28:48.740 It was social pressure.
00:28:49.800 Right.
00:28:50.060 After what, 72, when the last Apollo, I think it was 17, went up, uh, they were getting so
00:28:56.880 much flack from people.
00:28:58.140 We've got our own problems here.
00:28:59.340 What about poverty and war right here?
00:29:01.100 What about, so they pressured them out of doing the moon mission.
00:29:05.740 You couldn't, I remember growing up, I saw one of the last moon landings, uh, live because
00:29:12.040 I was too young to remember the first one.
00:29:14.480 And I remember watching in school, seeing one of the moon landings and see him walk around
00:29:18.240 and you're like, you know, I mean, it was just, it was honestly, it is exactly what happened
00:29:27.080 with Starship.
00:29:28.440 That is a miracle.
00:29:30.720 What they've just done that that's all brand new technology.
00:29:35.780 They're not taking that from the Saturn five rocket.
00:29:39.060 This is all brand new technology.
00:29:41.940 They launched something the largest ever.
00:29:47.080 Yeah.
00:29:47.260 They launched it and everybody was like, what happened?
00:29:50.480 Yeah, no, it's true.
00:29:51.280 Oh, they launched them.
00:29:52.360 They launched the big rocket.
00:29:53.860 Okay.
00:29:54.660 They have no idea.
00:29:56.200 And I think, I honestly think Elon Musk has brought back that fascination among a whole
00:30:02.600 generation of people.
00:30:03.500 I, I, I, when I grew up, the thing I remember about the space program was being in school,
00:30:09.380 watching the challenger explode.
00:30:10.980 Like that's my memory of the space thing.
00:30:13.060 So I never was, I interested really, it was never one of those things that, that lit up
00:30:17.420 my imagination.
00:30:18.140 I do think there's a younger generation now that sees the Elon Musk stuff and is, is, I
00:30:24.500 mean, the, the, you look at the internet, I mean, they go, they do go crazy about it.
00:30:28.540 I mean, there are a lot of people who now care, but I think most people who are from other
00:30:33.040 generations are just like, eh, you know, we've seen, we've been there, done that.
00:30:36.220 It's really funny because I was thinking about it today.
00:30:38.280 I think Elon Musk is, and I don't want to give him this label because I hate this guy
00:30:44.800 so much.
00:30:45.900 But he is, he's kind of the Edison, more the Tesla.
00:30:51.220 But Edison was much more of a showman.
00:30:53.900 And when, when he lit up Menlo park and, uh, and the streets, the world changed.
00:31:04.180 Now, you know, you get an iPhone and it does something spectacular and like, huh, even though
00:31:11.800 the world changes, nobody notices.
00:31:14.640 And I think he's doing all of these amazing things.
00:31:18.820 He's much more like Tesla involved in just game changing, absolutely everything.
00:31:24.040 And he's actually responsible for it.
00:31:27.120 But I think the only time that he will be really recognized, I was thinking today, I think the
00:31:34.200 world will stop and watch when we land a man on Mars.
00:31:40.740 I think that's the thing that has to have, we'll go up on the moon.
00:31:44.900 The first time it happens.
00:31:45.980 Yeah.
00:31:46.260 People will be really interested.
00:31:47.740 Yeah.
00:31:47.920 And then they'll be like, okay, big deal.
00:31:49.860 We put a man on Mars.
00:31:51.360 Yeah.
00:31:51.640 Yeah.
00:31:51.820 Okay.
00:31:52.380 It comes and goes fast.
00:31:53.080 Yeah.
00:31:53.460 Yeah.
00:31:54.020 Well, I mean, this is the problem with capitalism.
00:31:57.480 It really is.
00:31:58.280 We, it works so well and it works kind of like as an operating system in the background.
00:32:03.260 Like it's an amazing thing for you to click a little, little light on a phone that does
00:32:08.880 all these incredible things that an app could do.
00:32:11.180 And it's running on an operating system that you never think about.
00:32:13.880 And that's what capitalism does.
00:32:15.180 The operating system of capitalism is constantly improving your life and you never notice it.
00:32:20.220 Yes.
00:32:20.520 You know, billions of people get removed from poverty.
00:32:23.520 Think about like live aid back in the day.
00:32:26.560 We are the world, right?
00:32:27.680 Remember what a big deal that was, all the, like Michael Jackson and Bono and everybody
00:32:32.180 all, they're all singing these songs and they're trying to raise money.
00:32:34.520 Like that, that was nothing compared to like a couple of just years of general capitalist
00:32:42.080 development, which has ripped billions of people out of poverty and no one ever reports
00:32:46.980 on it.
00:32:47.260 No one cares.
00:32:48.200 No one notices.
00:32:49.080 It just happens.
00:32:50.340 All of our lives get better in the background.
00:32:52.420 We never notice it.
00:32:53.140 And we can, we always notice the things that get worse in the foreground.
00:32:55.840 That's why we're having the problem we're having now.
00:32:58.500 We're having a problem in America because we're like, this sucks.
00:33:03.280 What part of your life sucks right now?
00:33:07.400 I mean, you might be unhappy.
00:33:09.260 You may not have the riches or the fame or the education or whatever, but let me take you
00:33:16.100 back just to 1940.
00:33:17.880 1940, you want to see sucks, let me take you there, let alone 1701.
00:33:25.020 Yeah.
00:33:25.240 Someone noted that deodorant wasn't in wide use until the fifties.
00:33:29.100 So think about the forties for a second.
00:33:31.380 Ooh.
00:33:31.680 I mean, that's the smell of the forties.
00:33:33.340 Still banned in France, I believe.
00:33:35.920 Judging by the smell when you're there, it must be banned.
00:33:40.500 Is there a time that you would rather live in?
00:33:43.480 I mean, I don't think so.
00:33:46.900 No.
00:33:47.340 I mean, look, there are a lot of problems.
00:33:49.500 And of course, we talk about that stuff all the time.
00:33:51.780 And it's important to talk about.
00:33:53.180 I'm not demeaning that, but we don't notice how much things have improved.
00:33:59.600 There were so many problems at every stage of man, but not this many man-made miracles.
00:34:09.280 Yeah.
00:34:09.460 And some of those, many of those miracles, in fact, came from the space program, came
00:34:15.140 from our effort to get to the moon.
00:34:17.180 You know, cell phone technology, satellite, GPS, and so many more.
00:34:21.600 They needed those, you know.
00:34:24.340 They had to overcome all those challenges.
00:34:26.040 Those production companies like Paramount and MGM needed all those things to be right.
00:34:31.840 CGI, right.
00:34:31.860 To get their special effects down so well, it'd be convincing.
00:34:35.260 That is weird.
00:34:35.540 You know, it's illegal for an American citizen to own a spacesuit.
00:34:41.300 It's illegal?
00:34:42.420 What do you mean?
00:34:43.660 It's illegal.
00:34:44.280 I've been trying to get a spacesuit.
00:34:45.400 Yeah, you've been telling us about that.
00:34:46.580 And my efforts have only yielded a refueler's suit from Apollo 11.
00:34:56.660 And it looks like a spacesuit.
00:34:58.640 Oh, I bet that's kind of cool.
00:34:59.980 Yeah.
00:35:00.360 Yeah.
00:35:00.900 But you can't get the actual spacesuit.
00:35:02.200 Can't get the actual spacesuit.
00:35:03.380 Americans are not allowed to, oh, I can buy a Russian spacesuit.
00:35:08.000 I don't want a Russian spacesuit.
00:35:09.960 Why can't you have one?
00:35:11.200 Don't know.
00:35:12.320 I don't know.
00:35:12.860 Maybe you should have your guest from this morning.
00:35:14.220 Because we've never been to the moon.
00:35:14.540 Yeah, exactly.
00:35:15.600 Exactly.
00:35:17.040 Maybe you would give me...
00:35:18.380 Because the label says Paramount, Prop, and Costume.
00:35:25.060 All right.
00:35:25.620 Thank you very much, Pat.
00:35:27.080 Can people listen to this interview back, Pat, on your podcast?
00:35:29.880 They can, indeed.
00:35:30.800 Yeah, you could go to, you know, YouTube.com slash Pat Gray.
00:35:36.220 Is he a good sport about it?
00:35:38.520 It doesn't sound like it.
00:35:39.580 I think he got a little irritated with me.
00:35:40.840 But, yeah, he was okay.
00:35:42.300 He was okay about it.
00:35:43.160 I mean, I don't, you know, believe what you want, dude.
00:35:46.280 But, I mean, there's a lot of...
00:35:48.620 A lot of evidence.
00:35:50.060 But if you have him on, and I think you should because he's fun, he'll show you a lot of evidence that we didn't do it.
00:35:57.200 Oh, I'd love to see that.
00:35:58.660 Yeah.
00:35:58.780 I'd love to see that.
00:35:59.860 Now, I've met several astronauts.
00:36:03.440 Have you?
00:36:03.940 Yes, I have.
00:36:05.020 Wow.
00:36:05.500 Maybe, no, you haven't.
00:36:07.140 Maybe the answer is, no, you haven't.
00:36:09.840 Okay.
00:36:10.680 All right.
00:36:11.660 Thank you, Pat.
00:36:11.840 Oh, by the way, this is the same guy that got hit in the face by Buzz Aldrin.
00:36:15.100 Oh, yes.
00:36:15.880 Years ago.
00:36:16.380 What is that?
00:36:17.060 2017 or sometime when...
00:36:18.560 So, I won't bring up the time I had dinner with Buzz Aldrin.
00:36:24.820 I'll just leave, make note, leave Buzz Aldrin out of the conversation.
00:36:30.360 Sometimes the value of a product or service relies heavily on the values of the company that's producing that product or service.
00:36:38.140 We were just talking about this with Bud Light.
00:36:41.520 Budweiser.
00:36:42.000 Is that a woke company that's fully in and they're like, yeah!
00:36:47.560 Right.
00:36:47.980 Or is that a company that doesn't get it?
00:36:51.000 Or is that a company that was like, we got to do it?
00:36:54.720 Yeah.
00:36:54.960 Or the one that is essentially just reading the room incorrectly.
00:36:58.160 Yeah.
00:36:58.300 Right.
00:36:58.420 They thought this would be good for money.
00:37:00.700 They bring in, hey, a new demographic, whatever, and not realizing there'd be a big pushback.
00:37:04.440 Yeah.
00:37:06.660 The way to avoid all of that stuff that happened with Bud Light is not go there.
00:37:13.020 Not hate half the country.
00:37:16.740 That's an idea.
00:37:18.420 Patriot Mobile is a company that is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.
00:37:25.220 They feel that they need to do a good job, better than the other guys, cheaper, less expensive than the other guys.
00:37:35.420 And work for positive things.
00:37:38.040 Stand for the things that used to unite us, and that's the Bill of Rights.
00:37:42.440 If you are on one of the three major networks, you're paying too much, you are putting money into their socialist causes,
00:37:49.420 what you need to do is switch to Patriot Mobile.
00:37:52.360 Do it today.
00:37:53.420 They'll make it really easy and free.

00:38:07.880 Glenn Beck.
00:38:08.600 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:38:30.300 Virginia has a chief diversity officer who took the stage Friday at the Virginia Military Institute,
00:38:38.960 and they are currently having a very tense debate about all the things that are so important.
00:38:45.680 And he took to the stage and said, let's take a moment right now just to kill that cow of DEI.
00:38:53.480 DEI is dead.
00:38:55.220 We're not going to bring that cow up anymore.
00:38:57.540 It's dead.
00:38:58.340 It was mandated by the General Assembly, but this governor has a different philosophy of civil discourse, civility, and treating people living with the golden rule.
00:39:10.740 Apparently, they were very, very upset.
00:39:12.600 Didn't think that was very exclusive.
00:39:13.980 And apparently, in his talk, he kicked it off with a prayer to Jesus.
00:39:19.480 This is from the Washington Post.
00:39:21.560 And laced with mentions of our creator and God, which angered many of the people who attended.
00:39:27.680 Mentions?
00:39:28.440 Yeah.
00:39:28.820 Mentioned them.
00:39:29.500 The creator.
00:39:30.660 God.
00:39:30.920 Wow.
00:39:31.620 Yeah.
00:39:31.900 A fully loaded mention?
00:39:34.380 An assault mention?
00:39:36.000 It was.
00:39:36.640 It was.
00:39:37.460 It was an assault mention.
00:39:39.560 Thank you for bringing that up, Stu.
00:39:42.600 So, you know, they got a little pushback there, but congratulations to the diversity officer.
00:39:50.440 Can we stop with the diversity officer?
00:39:54.460 We've always been diverse.
00:39:55.820 We are the most diverse population ever assembled in one country.
00:40:01.320 Do you know that?
00:40:02.080 By far.
00:40:03.480 By far.
00:40:05.080 Well, Sweden works really well.
00:40:06.880 Yeah.
00:40:07.460 Really?
00:40:08.000 It does?
00:40:08.880 Because it's like three families of Vikings.
00:40:12.160 They're all related to each other.
00:40:13.980 They're all white, blonde hair, blue eyed people.
00:40:16.880 It's pretty easy to bring them together.
00:40:20.740 This country?
00:40:22.040 People come from all walks of life.
00:40:24.900 All cultures.
00:40:25.820 And look how well we have gotten along.
00:40:28.480 And we are broadcasting from the most diverse city in the United States, which is Irving, Texas.
00:40:34.820 It's about like 25% of four different categories, almost exactly broken up.
00:40:39.980 And you realize that when people aren't insane, the society runs completely fine.
00:40:46.380 Yep.
00:40:46.980 Having different colors and different cultures.
00:40:49.900 There are different cultures around here.
00:40:51.280 There's lots of different restaurants.
00:40:52.440 There's lots of different stores.
00:40:54.840 And it serves a bunch of different communities.
00:40:57.180 And you know what?
00:40:57.720 Everyone kind of just picks what they want.
00:40:59.340 And they go on with their lives.
00:41:01.100 And it's...
00:41:02.200 You know, we don't need diversity officers on every corner to point out.
00:41:05.400 It's okay for you to go...
00:41:07.440 You can't go in that store and you can go in this one.
00:41:09.600 A lot of people that work here think that I, you know, I bought these studios because they were the old Paramount Studios.
00:41:16.380 No.
00:41:16.580 They are close to some of the best Korean barbecue food you've ever had.
00:41:23.280 That's the only reason.
00:41:23.980 That's the only reason we live here.
00:41:26.760 Now I understand your real estate investing philosophy a little bit better.
00:41:30.980 How far are you away from Korean barbecues?
00:41:34.260 Oh, that's too far.
00:41:35.300 No, no.
00:41:36.820 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:41:38.180 We've got no room to compromise.
00:41:57.720 We've got to stand together and go to survive.
00:42:03.760 Stand up, stand, and hold the line.
00:42:08.180 It's a new day I'm trying to raise.
00:42:14.620 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:42:22.520 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:42:28.040 Hello, America.
00:42:29.100 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:42:30.500 Welcome to Fight Back Friday.
00:42:32.260 Fridays, we try to highlight people who are fighting back or have a plan to fight back,
00:42:37.180 encouraging others to stand up in a peaceful way and just speak the truth.
00:42:43.820 Today, Floyd Brown is on.
00:42:47.340 He is the author of Counterpunch.
00:42:50.000 He's the Western Journal founder.
00:42:51.860 He is also, I know him from my days with KVI.
00:42:55.740 He was at KVI in Seattle.
00:42:57.560 I don't know how he survived in Seattle.
00:43:03.040 I wonder if he's still there.
00:43:05.440 But he's also the guy who put together Citizens United.
00:43:10.720 Yeah.
00:43:11.420 Yeah.
00:43:12.360 You know, those people who believe in free speech.
00:43:17.160 What whack jobs they are, huh?
00:43:20.300 Floyd Brown joins us in 60 seconds.
00:43:22.920 All right.
00:43:24.320 Let's say you got something to prove.
00:43:26.300 You want the world to know just how tough you are.
00:43:29.280 Well, my pillows, Giza Dream Sheets are probably not for you.
00:43:34.680 Okay.
00:43:35.240 I just did a podcast comes out tomorrow with Tim Kennedy.
00:43:38.660 I don't know.
00:43:39.540 I think the guy could sleep on sandpaper and be happy.
00:43:43.040 But I am not one of those people.
00:43:46.400 No.
00:43:46.940 I don't like to sprinkle rocks or, well, sometimes there's, you know, crumbs of Oreo cookies that
00:43:52.480 are on my bed and it kind of feels like rock because my skin is so sensitive.
00:43:56.840 Anyway, you really want great sheets?

00:44:36.140 Floyd, my man, how are you, sir?
00:44:38.900 I'm great.
00:44:39.820 Good to be with you.
00:44:41.100 Yeah, good to be with you.
00:44:42.560 So we are at a time now where I think this is the, you know, right, Reagan said it.
00:44:51.100 Now is the time for choosing.
00:44:53.260 This is the time where you have to decide what side you're on.
00:44:58.400 And I think there are many strange bedfellows that can be made at this point, because people
00:45:07.180 are standing up from all walks of life.
00:45:12.140 Do you agree with that?
00:45:13.420 Oh, absolutely.
00:45:14.820 That's why I actually, my book is called Counterpunch, but the subtitle is An Unlikely Alliance of
00:45:21.900 Americans Fighting Back for Faith and Freedom.
00:45:24.680 And I think you are absolutely correct.
00:45:27.880 America is at an inflection point.
00:45:30.760 And we've been under such a barrage of what I call false narratives for so long now.
00:45:36.820 And, I mean, you deal with all of these false narratives from climate change is caused by man to Trump was a Russian spy, Biden laptop was Russian propaganda.
00:45:49.360 I mean, we get all these false narratives and false narratives.
00:45:53.720 Their purpose is to make people feel alone, isolated, and like they can't do anything.
00:46:01.440 And so, you know, I travel the country and speak at conferences, and I kept hearing from everyone, what can I do?
00:46:09.880 What can I do?
00:46:10.720 What can I do?
00:46:11.460 So I thought I would put together a book that explained to them that they have the most power right around them.
00:46:21.920 It's a lesson that I learned a long time ago.
00:46:24.640 We underestimate the power that we have to influence the people that are right around us.
00:46:31.700 You know, local action can have national impact.
00:46:35.200 And so, it's really a time for people to get engaged.
00:46:40.460 It's time for people to start building community again.
00:46:45.200 You know, they put us on house arrest.
00:46:47.100 They locked us all down.
00:46:48.700 They tried to do everything they could to break the bonds of community.
00:46:52.440 And we've got to go the extra step and start rebuilding those bonds of community.
00:46:59.080 So, how do you do that when sometimes your family just can't even get together?
00:47:03.860 Yeah.
00:47:04.380 Well, the first thing that I suggest is people get to know their neighbors again.
00:47:08.720 Most people live on a street.
00:47:11.740 Most people, you know, live in an apartment building.
00:47:15.260 There's somewhere where there's neighbors nearby, but Americans don't know them anymore.
00:47:21.520 And so, you can do things as simple as have coffee with them.
00:47:25.040 And then I talk about several examples of groups and organizations that have organically grown up as a result of somebody just stepping out.
00:47:37.320 I talk about a guy named Basil Firminos, who's in North Phoenix.
00:47:42.500 Basil was upset with mask mandates.
00:47:44.900 And so, he texted 50 of his friends to come to a coffee shop and meet him.
00:47:51.420 And 250 people showed up.
00:47:54.760 Wow.
00:47:55.060 And so, that group, you know, was launched.
00:48:01.420 And they still meet.
00:48:02.380 They meet Mondays, every other Monday.
00:48:05.040 And they've been involved in school board races, local legislative races.
00:48:10.020 They are making change right where they live.
00:48:13.940 And that's how we fix the country.
00:48:16.940 You know, nobody's going to ride in on their white horse into Washington, D.C. and fix everything.
00:48:23.680 That's not the solution to our problems.
00:48:25.820 People have to occupy right where they're at.
00:48:30.300 There is something also that I think is, for me at least, the most important thing.
00:48:37.280 Jason Whitlock yesterday said, stop calling me a conservative.
00:48:40.700 I'm a Christian.
00:48:41.740 I'm not necessarily conservative.
00:48:43.740 And I heard a great priest talk about this recently on a YouTube video I watched, where he said, I'm tired of hearing about a liberal priest or a conservative priest.
00:48:54.780 He said, there's neither of those.
00:48:56.640 If you're for gay marriage, you're not a liberal priest.
00:49:01.100 You're not a priest.
00:49:02.720 If you are for, you know, transgenderism and the mutilation of our children, you're not a liberal priest.
00:49:10.420 And I'm not a conservative priest for standing against it.
00:49:13.800 You're just not a priest.
00:49:16.300 And I think reestablishing ourselves with our faith.
00:49:24.420 And I don't know how many people really have that deep of faith anymore.
00:49:29.420 But reestablishing that, no, I have two citizenships, one to the United States, and my first citizenship is to the kingdom of God.
00:49:40.840 And I'm not going to break those laws in either of those citizenships.
00:49:46.160 I can't do it and be a good citizen.
00:49:48.940 No, you are exactly right.
00:49:53.480 This is a spiritual warfare.
00:49:56.040 You know, we all know that Tucker Carlson just recently was released at Fox.
00:50:01.940 And part of the speculation is we don't know everything that happened is that he was starting to talk in terms of spiritual warfare.
00:50:10.820 And he was calling out people as evil.
00:50:16.060 He gave this speech to the Heritage Foundation on their 50th anniversary where, you know, he said things that offend the elites.
00:50:26.580 And so, you know, I think that that's a big part of why he might have been removed.
00:50:31.820 So, you're right, it is a spiritual battle.
00:50:37.400 And, you know, I encourage people to get back into Scripture.
00:50:42.360 I think one of the ways that you can discern these false narratives is if you're putting good things into your mind.
00:50:49.660 And the Bible and the Scripture is full of wisdom.
00:50:53.380 So, you know, turn off social media, turn off Twitter, turn off Facebook, and spend some time in the Bible.
00:51:01.160 And I think it will really change your perspective about things.
00:51:05.180 I think it's really hard.
00:51:06.640 You know, if people went and swore off, you know, movies, TV shows that are on Netflix, people don't realize how far we have drifted just in the last 10 years.
00:51:21.200 You can't watch anything anymore that, you know, you would have thought was good and wholesome 15 years ago.
00:51:31.200 They don't exist.
00:51:33.120 And what's good and wholesome now is still filthy.
00:51:37.360 Yeah, well, that's one of the good things about having these streaming sites is we can watch old programs.
00:51:44.260 I mean, my wife and I, we watched Murder, She Wrote, which came out during the Reagan years.
00:51:49.640 Right, right.
00:51:51.200 So, but, you know, Alinsky, who was the most powerful influence on the left and wrote Rules for Radicals, he was a great tactical strategist.
00:52:03.320 And what he helped the left do was maximize their influence, but he did it by ridicule and ripping people apart.
00:52:13.340 His strategies are incredibly divisive.
00:52:17.460 And, in fact, you know, he dedicated his book to Lucifer, the most divisive person in the spiritual realm.
00:52:25.860 And I actually encourage people to do the opposite of Alinsky, and that is start to love the people around you, start to love your neighbors, start to re-engage with your neighbors,
00:52:39.600 and then find people like you that you want to work with, and then get involved in your school board race.
00:52:47.220 Get involved in some of these key things, because, you know, we still have the Bill of Rights.
00:52:53.660 We still have freedom of the press.
00:52:56.060 And if we don't exercise these freedoms, we will lose them.
00:53:01.040 I think that's one of the most important things that you have said, is start to love your enemy.
00:53:06.300 I gave a speech a couple of nights ago in Virginia, and I said, you know, hatred comes from darkness and ignorance.
00:53:20.960 And there is a hatred that is spreading all over the world that is just evil.
00:53:27.540 And if we really are disciples of Christ, we have to love our enemies, and we have to start looking at some of these people.
00:53:37.800 Some of these people know exactly what they're engaged in.
00:53:40.240 I think a lot of other people don't really know, and they've just kind of eased their way into it,
00:53:47.960 and they don't realize that they're up to their neck in evil now.
00:53:51.780 And the Lord wants all of his kids back, not just us, not one side or the other.
00:53:58.320 He wants all of them to return to him.
00:54:02.480 And you're never going to accomplish that with hatred and anger and violence.
00:54:07.580 Never.
00:54:09.060 No.
00:54:09.700 I mean, his message is a message of love, of radical love.
00:54:14.100 And, you know, when I was growing up, we had the Kiwanis Club, we had the Lions Club, we had the Rotary Club.
00:54:23.060 We had all of these civic organizations that were building the local community.
00:54:29.880 And, you know, those organizations now are all in really tough shape.
00:54:35.960 They're smaller after COVID.
00:54:37.840 A lot of people didn't come back.
00:54:39.500 A lot of them will never re-engage.
00:54:44.460 We have to rebuild community and start with our neighborhoods and start with our neighbors.
00:54:51.080 And we can take back the country literally town by town, city by city, county by county.
00:54:57.960 There's over 3,000 counties in America that are, in essence, red counties.
00:55:04.620 And a lot of times they aren't being run that way because people just aren't active in their communities.
00:55:13.760 And politics encourages and invites and attracts some of the worst elements.
00:55:20.580 Floyd, thank you so much.
00:55:22.060 The name of the book that he's just put out is Counterpunch.
00:55:25.100 His name is Floyd Brown.
00:55:28.100 You can get Counterpunch wherever you get your books.
00:55:30.580 And you can also find much of his work at westernjournal.com, westernjournal.com.
00:55:36.560 Floyd, thank you so much.
00:55:38.120 Great to be with you.
00:55:39.040 You bet.
00:55:39.480 Bye-bye.
00:55:40.240 Let me tell you about Relief Factor.
00:55:42.220 When was it that you discovered you couldn't do that thing that you loved anymore?
00:55:46.480 What was that thing?
00:55:48.000 My thing was writing by hand and painting.
00:55:55.020 Couldn't do them.
00:55:56.560 And that just killed me.
00:56:00.220 It was too painful to use my hands for any amount of time.
00:56:03.780 And I mean like three minutes.
00:56:05.980 My hands would just cramp up and it was horrible.
00:56:09.520 I couldn't live that way.
00:56:11.320 And I lived that way for several years.
00:56:13.500 I tried everything.
00:56:14.340 I didn't try Relief Factor because I thought there's no way that's going to work for me.
00:56:19.760 I mean it's advertised on the radio.
00:56:21.900 Come on, man.
00:56:24.140 I don't know why I feel that way.
00:56:26.640 I use the products I advertise for.
00:56:32.580 So I'm listening to boneheads on the radio and they're like,
00:56:36.020 God, it's a Relief Factor.
00:56:37.500 I didn't think it would work mainly because it reduces inflammation.
00:56:41.560 And I've had ibuprofen.
00:56:42.880 I've even had the hard stuff.
00:56:44.040 Oh, man.
00:56:44.740 I was in recovery after ibuprofen 800 for a while.
00:56:48.540 It does nothing for me.
00:56:51.180 For some reason, Relief Factor works.
00:56:53.540 I have my hands back.
00:56:54.700 I can paint.
00:56:55.320 I can write again.
00:56:56.320 It's relieffactor.com.

00:57:29.600 It gives you about 60 or 70 stories every day that we feel are the most important.
00:57:35.800 I'm not getting too many of them today because it's Friday, man.
00:57:40.620 I don't want to think.
00:57:42.240 I really don't want to think.
00:57:43.820 And I don't think you do either.
00:57:45.760 But there was a story in there about a new study on climate change that is showing, uh-oh,
00:57:52.960 the models are all wrong.
00:57:55.180 Yeah.
00:57:55.300 And this has been a real problem for the climate change industry over the past few years,
00:58:01.180 which is their models seem to be running a little hot.
00:58:05.000 A little bit?
00:58:05.480 Yeah.
00:58:05.720 They're not really predicting where the temperatures would go.
00:58:09.020 You know, of course, now we know where temperatures have gone over the past 20, 30 years.
00:58:13.020 Of course, the older models predicted much more warming.
00:58:17.520 And the answer to that is, of course, we've improved our technology.
00:58:20.840 We now know better.
00:58:21.680 Yeah, sure, we were wrong before, but now we're right.
00:58:25.000 And you should trust us now, even though our history shows you we were wrong last time.
00:58:29.500 That's always an interesting proposal that we're supposed to accept,
00:58:32.600 but let's go along with it here for a moment.
00:58:34.580 The newest study out on this is showing about half the amount of warming
00:58:41.640 as many of the other studies have shown when it comes to what is actually going on.
00:58:49.520 It's about, you know, most of these studies have showed about 0.2 degrees Celsius increase per decade.
00:58:57.700 And tell that to the next person who tells you,
00:59:01.200 I remember when I was a kid, it was never this hot.
00:59:05.140 And now it really is.
00:59:06.140 Is that right?
00:59:06.800 You're really noticing the 0.2 degrees Celsius per decade?
00:59:11.020 Is that that noticeable to you?
00:59:12.920 In 50 years, that equals one degree.
00:59:15.740 You're really noticing that, are you?
00:59:17.800 That's just an annoying thing that people do.
00:59:20.300 But anyway, the newest one is showing about half that, about 0.12 degrees Celsius.
00:59:26.160 So we've already cut it in half.
00:59:27.920 There you go.
00:59:28.860 Congratulations.
00:59:29.580 A lot of this has to do with the positive versus negative feedback loops
00:59:33.100 that they put inside of these climate models.
00:59:35.640 And it's an annoying, long conversation.
00:59:38.620 But like, if you think about a, like a rounded bowl, right?
00:59:42.240 And if you were to drop a ping pong ball into the bowl, it would go up and down and it would
00:59:46.460 kind of eventually settle at the bottom, right?
00:59:48.240 That's a negative feedback loop.
00:59:50.700 Okay.
00:59:51.280 It's going to take whatever's going on and decrease it over time until it stops.
00:59:55.920 A positive feedback loop is if you took that same rounded bowl and turned it upside down
01:00:00.280 and you drop the ping pong ball on the top.
01:00:02.540 Well, it would just run rampant, right?
01:00:03.940 It would just go off the table and keep rolling.
01:00:06.680 And so what climate theorists always talk about are these positive feedback loops.
01:00:11.080 The things that are happening wouldn't do what they say these catastrophic consequences are.
01:00:16.800 It wouldn't by themselves do that.
01:00:18.480 But what they say is, well, one thing will lead to another, which will lead to another,
01:00:22.640 which will lead to another.
01:00:23.580 They will build off each other and make everything worse and create a positive feedback loop that
01:00:27.680 eventually ends with all of us dying and society collapsing.
01:00:30.840 That is what we have done with our foreign policy over the last 100 years.
01:00:36.560 Well, if we do this, then they'll do that.
01:00:38.580 And then this will happen and that will happen and it'll all be great.
01:00:41.180 Right.
01:00:41.420 And none of that happens.
01:00:42.920 Almost never can you predict these things.
01:00:45.260 This is why back in the turn of the last century, 1899 to 1900, 1901, the big fundamental
01:00:54.620 environmental concern was how were they going to get rid of all of the horse dung from Manhattan?
01:00:59.640 Right.
01:00:59.980 Because there were so many, they were growing so fast and everyone was on horses and there's
01:01:03.100 horse dung everywhere.
01:01:04.020 What do we do with it all?
01:01:05.120 It's going to pile up and it's going to involve the city.
01:01:07.460 Now, in reality, I do admit it did eventually get covered in feces, but it was human feces.
01:01:13.800 And it was because of the progressives.
01:01:16.640 Hey, a totally different problem.
01:01:18.100 So there is a, there's another story in show prep that comes from the World Economic Forum
01:01:22.160 today.
01:01:22.500 It's about Agenda 2030.
01:01:24.420 Oh yeah, it's back.
01:01:25.840 Listen to this.
01:01:26.520 In the times of fraying multilateralism, Agenda 2030 represents the rare moment of unanimity
01:01:32.940 achieved by the international community, which in 2015 agreed to cement the three pillars of
01:01:38.780 sustainable development.
01:01:40.340 I bet I could get more people to tell me what the three branches of government are on the
01:01:47.060 street than the, the three pillars of sustainable development.
01:01:51.600 Okay.
01:01:52.360 And remember, this is a, this is a global thing that we all got together and did economic
01:01:57.380 advancement, social progress, and environmental sustainability.
01:02:02.160 The 17 sustainable development goals of the targets of the 2030 agenda represent a significant
01:02:08.300 improvement over the preceding eight millennial development goals and their comprehensive scope.
01:02:14.160 Civil society organizations played a key role in putting forward the ideas for SDGs.
01:02:20.240 Of, I just said what an SDG is, and I'll bet you most people would go, what is an SDG?
01:02:30.300 Sustainable development goal.
01:02:31.660 Anyway, um, uh, they were able to win significant people centered commitments, uh, blah, blah, blah.
01:02:38.220 Beyond their role in the SDGs, it established that civil society organizations contribute to the
01:02:44.640 national life and sustainable development.
01:02:47.760 It helps foster inclusive policymaking that keeps the needs of the vulnerable and
01:02:53.020 marginable.
01:02:54.860 It can, this article continues to talk about how we all did this together.
01:03:01.420 I contend no one that I know and no one that you know, or will ever know, put all of this
01:03:10.320 together.
01:03:10.940 We weren't even consulted.
01:03:13.000 The Glenn Beck program.
01:03:16.160 Uh, I don't know about you, but I value my sanity and my sanity is connected to my wife's sanity.
01:03:23.000 And when we sell a home and, uh, they continue to say, oh, we've got somebody coming over for a
01:03:29.880 showing, uh, just make sure the house is clean.
01:03:32.720 Even if they say, don't worry, they don't care if you live in a pigsty.
01:03:35.860 They just want to look at the house because they're thinking about burning it down to the
01:03:38.500 ground.
01:03:38.920 My wife will say to me, we've got to clean.
01:03:42.220 We've got, we have to spend the day cleaning the house.
01:03:44.720 And you're like, they're going to burn it down.
01:03:48.700 We cannot show the house and have it with a speck of dust in it.
01:03:53.440 Oh my gosh.
01:03:54.580 Please somebody sell my house quickly.
01:03:56.860 Okay.
01:03:57.300 Do you feel this way?
01:03:58.200 We can find the right real estate agent that can help you sell your house quickly and for the
01:04:04.560 most amount of money.
01:04:06.240 And if they'll give you an honest viewpoint of you got to do this and this and this to your house,
01:04:11.920 if you want to sell it, real estate agents, I trust.com it's real estate agents, I trust.com
01:04:17.940 go there.
01:04:18.500 We'll get you the people we think are the best in your area to find the right house,
01:04:23.300 to sell your house and win on both sides of the economic ladder.
01:04:29.060 If you're upset, Tucker has been canceled.
01:04:30.740 We had a great show for you at 8 p.m.
01:04:32.040 Eastern on blaze TV.
01:04:33.260 Stu does America at blaze tv.com slash Glenn to say that question.
01:04:37.080 Everything is the code.
01:04:53.300 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:04:56.280 We're glad you're here.
01:04:57.000 Now, I want to talk to you about your elections.
01:05:02.380 You may have elections going on.
01:05:04.760 Texas, I know, has elections going on right now through May 2nd.
01:05:09.900 Election day is Saturday, May 6th.
01:05:12.520 But these are the ones where they get you because they're very organized.
01:05:18.940 And some of these elections, many of them school board elections, they can be won by three votes
01:05:24.920 because seven people have voted, okay?
01:05:29.160 Nobody goes out and votes.
01:05:32.300 You need to call your friends and organize your neighborhood.
01:05:37.460 Literally, if you put 10 people in a car, you could be the difference on a winning and losing election
01:05:45.780 in an election like what's happening right now.
01:05:48.200 So, I want to introduce you to Stephanie Elad.
01:05:52.080 She is, and now don't hold this against her, okay?
01:05:56.240 Yes, she's a California native, but she got to Texas as soon as she could.
01:06:02.380 Stephanie, welcome to the program.
01:06:04.580 Thank you, Glenn.
01:06:05.360 Yeah.
01:06:06.040 So, you moved from California.
01:06:08.720 You moved to Frisco, which is a really nice part of North Texas.
01:06:12.860 And it has great schools.
01:06:15.480 And you got into the schools.
01:06:17.800 And then you started paying attention to what was being said because of COVID.
01:06:23.020 And what happened?
01:06:25.820 Right.
01:06:26.380 Well, the first few years were great.
01:06:27.880 We've been here 10 years.
01:06:29.120 And then I started to notice some things, even before COVID, but then after COVID, definitely.
01:06:34.540 And so, I went to a school board meeting just about two years ago, actually, and I just did not like what I saw at all.
01:06:42.600 I felt like the parents who had taken time to be there were very disrespected.
01:06:47.980 In fact, the school board president at the time said, this is our meaning, meaning theirs and not ours.
01:06:53.260 And it just didn't sit right with me.
01:06:54.860 So, to make a very long story short, I ended up running for school board last year, and I won.
01:07:00.620 So, I have been a school board member for about a year now.
01:07:05.180 And you found out, and we have the tape.
01:07:08.360 We're going to play it here in a second.
01:07:09.400 You found out that other members of the school board were meeting without you to try to figure out how to pretty much silence you.
01:07:20.280 Yes.
01:07:20.980 I did find that out recently.
01:07:24.040 And, well, let's play.
01:07:26.160 Do you want to set this audio up?
01:07:29.040 Well, yeah.
01:07:29.820 From what I understand, I can, sure.
01:07:31.500 So, what happened last fall was that myself and another trustee put an item on the agenda related to bathroom policy.
01:07:41.520 And so, it took a while.
01:07:44.260 And now I know why it took a while.
01:07:45.700 Once you hear what you're about to play, it'll probably make more sense.
01:07:48.720 But it took a while.
01:07:50.480 And I didn't really think that much about the fact that it took a while, even though we have procedures as part of the board,
01:07:56.860 in terms of how long things should take before they get on an agenda when trustees request it.
01:08:02.140 But, anyways, apparently there was some constituents of our community who were angry about the policy.
01:08:09.200 So, our three board officers met with them to address their concerns.
01:08:15.960 And they were concerned that we had just passed a policy saying, you know, boys use boys' restrooms, girls' use girls' restrooms.
01:08:23.120 They were upset about that.
01:08:24.440 And so, this audio was the three board officers kind of responding to those concerns.
01:08:32.240 Now, listen to this.
01:08:33.400 Go ahead.
01:08:34.200 I am so tired of having, because every time it's on a board meeting, every time it's on an agenda,
01:08:39.980 the entire tape crowd now can come and speak about how terrible they think our transgender students are.
01:08:46.600 Stop for a second.
01:08:47.840 This woman is saying, I am so sick and tired of it.
01:08:51.120 Every time we talk about bathrooms, then the entire hate crowd comes in, and we have to listen to how much they hate it.
01:08:59.120 Go ahead.
01:08:59.420 I mean, Marvin and Stephanie are going to keep on.
01:09:02.200 But every time, they're going to ruin every meeting this year.
01:09:04.940 They're going to ruin every meeting.
01:09:05.940 Yes.
01:09:06.220 And I have mechanisms in place that I can push, and I can use our subcommittee structure.
01:09:14.080 And they wanted to vote on this in July.
01:09:16.900 It's November.
01:09:17.900 That's how long I've been able to push this out.
01:09:19.900 And so, like, I have mechanisms by which I can do that.
01:09:22.860 And I can also put it on any agenda.
01:09:25.220 They want it on the regular board meetings because it's a show.
01:09:27.240 If they ask for anything transgender policy going forward, it will be on a special meeting in the middle of the day that no one goes to.
01:09:32.780 And the only way we can find out what they're doing is to make sure our board stays in the majority of good guys.
01:09:38.400 That's all we can do.
01:09:39.160 Because the state.
01:09:40.360 But if they change the state law.
01:09:41.760 They won't.
01:09:42.500 They will try.
01:09:43.920 But they have never been successful in passing a bathroom policy at the state level.
01:09:48.500 Because we need to be in the audience listening to what their narrative is so that we have a defense mechanism.
01:09:54.580 That is incredible.
01:09:58.320 In case you need a recap, some of the things discussed there was we're tired of the people coming to the meetings and wrecking the meetings.
01:10:06.320 And Stephanie and her fellow board member, they keep coming and they're going to wreck all of these meetings.
01:10:15.280 So then the next one says, well, I can keep it off the agenda.
01:10:20.300 They wanted to do this in July.
01:10:21.920 It's now November.
01:10:22.940 And I have mechanisms that will keep it off the agenda.
01:10:26.140 And the other one says, and if you want to put it on the agenda, we can put it on in the day.
01:10:31.660 So nobody comes and we won't have to deal with all of that.
01:10:36.600 What was the last thing in there?
01:10:39.520 There was so much.
01:10:41.040 We have to have we have to make sure that the good guys remain in control of the board.
01:10:47.680 The question is, who are the good guys and who are the bad guys?
01:10:52.200 When you heard this, Stephanie, what did what did you think?
01:10:58.780 I mean, I was shocked.
01:11:00.280 I really was because, you know, I understand that there's there's a divide within the board and that, you know, the existing board members didn't didn't want me on it.
01:11:09.660 I certainly understand that that was made very clear in last year's election.
01:11:14.180 But, you know, I was surprised that that anyone went to this level to do this.
01:11:19.960 And it was very concerning to me to call, you know, to characterize the parents as being a hate crowd.
01:11:26.040 These are parents who came and spent their time and spoke in most cases pretty eloquently about their concern about this bathroom practice that the district had had.
01:11:38.380 And and quite honestly, is still practicing.
01:11:41.000 So, you know, they're allowed to come and say that.
01:11:43.740 And that doesn't make them a hate crowd.
01:11:45.140 They were concerned.
01:11:45.900 There were fathers coming concerned about their daughters.
01:11:48.800 There were you know, there was a mom who came to her son had been impacted by this whole issue of having a biological girl in the boys restroom.
01:11:59.720 And then, you know, when this mother complained to the school about that, they said, well, your son can use the nurse's restroom if he's uncomfortable.
01:12:07.620 And she came and spoke.
01:12:09.400 I didn't that's not a hater.
01:12:10.920 That's just, you know, someone who disagrees.
01:12:13.080 And it's, you know, one of the things that concerns me the most about this whole environment that we live in, especially as it relates to school board elections, is if you don't agree with the establishment, then you're, you know, you're a hate crowd.
01:12:26.840 Right.
01:12:27.700 And and you're anti-public education.
01:12:30.020 It's like it's so ridiculous.
01:12:32.260 It's so intellectually dishonest.
01:12:34.360 It's like we can disagree and that's OK.
01:12:37.780 But this this name calling and this rhetoric is just it's escalated in Frisco this year because of the board election.
01:12:44.060 And it's really sad to see.
01:12:47.220 So, first of all, are there people that you've talked to?
01:12:50.620 You're getting some other people like you on that are running now for the board.
01:12:54.720 There are two people that I am supporting in this election.
01:12:58.340 I sort of characterize it as establishment candidates versus independent voices.
01:13:03.540 That's how I characterize it.
01:13:05.180 And so there are I've supported Reid Bond and Susan Kershaw.
01:13:09.640 We have two seats up for election this year and I have publicly endorsed and supported them.
01:13:14.360 Are they running as are they Republicans or Democrats or independents?
01:13:19.320 They are.
01:13:20.600 They're they're they're conservative.
01:13:22.100 OK, they are.
01:13:23.400 And they've gotten all the endorsements from all the conservative groups and a lot of the Republican politicians.
01:13:30.340 But because they're nonpartisan races, it doesn't have any kind of party affiliation on the ballot.
01:13:36.920 Right.
01:13:38.760 And and how do you are there any?
01:13:41.600 I mean, because they're so they hide.
01:13:44.560 They hide.
01:13:45.460 We're open with our view.
01:13:47.260 Look, if you want bathrooms to be shared by, you know, both sexes or all ninety nine, I'm not the candidate for you.
01:13:56.020 They're not open and honest about it.
01:13:58.980 So how do you know that you're you're standing with somebody that is good?
01:14:07.360 Well, you know, you just ask questions.
01:14:11.040 And I think a lot of these these grassroots organizations, you know, do the vetting.
01:14:17.260 And so that's what I tell people is go look at their questionnaires, go look at who they're endorsing.
01:14:22.940 And you can see some of that.
01:14:24.500 There's also forums that have been online.
01:14:26.320 In fact, I was interested to find out that the Frisco Chamber of Commerce, when they did their forum, that's kind of the biggest forum that we have here.
01:14:36.840 They asked, you know, do you support getting out of the Texas Association of School Boards or not?
01:14:42.820 Because another district recently did.
01:14:44.440 And I thought, well, that's it.
01:14:45.460 That's a question.
01:14:46.320 That's a good one.
01:14:46.980 People said yes or no.
01:14:48.140 Right.
01:14:48.420 So you could see where people fell.
01:14:51.560 The other thing I'll say, just to kind of get back to the video for a quick second, is that one of our state representatives did request that the TEA, the Texas Education Agency, do an investigation into this to see if there was any kind of wrongdoing.
01:15:07.600 And so it is my understanding that that investigation has occurred.
01:15:11.600 So there's been quite a bit of backlash to it, including from several of our elected officials who've gotten involved and are trying to do something to just stop this stuff.
01:15:22.020 So the Texas Association of School Boards, you know, we we know about the school board associations nationally and the Texas teachers unions.
01:15:35.000 They were instrumental in killing school choice here in Texas, which is incredible to me.
01:15:42.480 We have so many spineless Republicans.
01:15:45.380 What role do those guys play in school boards and and races like this?
01:15:51.660 So the Texas Association of School Boards, all trustees become a member once they get sworn in.
01:15:58.380 And if your district is a member of of that organization and all districts in Texas, except for one are and that that would be Carroll ISD in Southlake who recently just voted to get out of the Texas Association of School Boards.
01:16:12.440 So they are in a process of exiting.
01:16:15.420 Good.
01:16:16.340 But basically, they provide training for trustees.
01:16:19.140 They provide legal and others as well, employees, things like that.
01:16:22.980 They also provide legal services for districts and insurance services and things like that.
01:16:29.980 But they're on the wrong side, are they not?
01:16:33.240 Are they not also pushing?
01:16:35.420 Go ahead.
01:16:36.620 Yeah, I've seen them push quite a bit of progressive ideology.
01:16:41.880 I was not a fan of that organization when I was running because I had heard about this concept called Team of Eight.
01:16:48.720 And that is basically where you have seven trustees and a superintendent and you're supposed to be a team.
01:16:54.620 And I thought, well, that that just seemed counterintuitive to me on the face of it, because I thought, well, aren't the trustees supposed to be there to, you know, oversee the district?
01:17:03.820 And isn't the superintendent supposed to report to the board?
01:17:06.780 And isn't the board supposed to be seven independent voices trying to make decisions for the community?
01:17:11.280 So the whole Team of Eight concept, I ran a platform kind of against that.
01:17:15.740 In fact, I think I've specifically said I will not be Team of Eight.
01:17:19.100 I will be an independent voice.
01:17:21.740 So that was kind of my thoughts before I got on.
01:17:24.720 And then, you know, when I got on the board, I had the chance last fall to go to a convention that was put on by the Texas Association of School Boards.
01:17:35.360 And they brought in ACLU attorneys to talk to the trustees about some of these controversial issues.
01:17:43.460 And I was shocked.
01:17:44.460 I mean, it's one thing to present both sides of an issue, but I didn't see any Heritage Foundation speakers or anything like that.
01:17:51.720 Right. Exactly right.
01:17:53.120 I just saw the ACLU.
01:17:54.080 And I was quite honestly horrified because it was, you know, you have to allow pornographic books in libraries to make sure they're age appropriate, which meant to me, I guess, high school is okay, but maybe some books aren't okay for elementary school.
01:18:06.360 But they basically told us there's no book, you know, that you should take out of the library.
01:18:11.160 And some of these books are so explicit.
01:18:13.540 And then they also, you know, said, you know, boys should be in girls' locker rooms.
01:18:17.460 Is that what they want?
01:18:18.480 And, I mean, I heard them say it, and I couldn't get my mind around the fact that that's what they were doing.
01:18:23.740 And so there's a lot of that stuff that goes on in the conventions.
01:18:28.020 But even just a lot of the rhetoric from, you know, this organization, they basically said that when you, you know, when you become a trustee, you serve a district and not the voters.
01:18:39.340 And I thought, well, that's, you know, what the heck is that?
01:18:42.360 So I have not been a fan of this organization.
01:18:45.500 Stephanie, thank you.
01:18:47.220 You are running again already?
01:18:49.760 No, I am not running.
01:18:50.760 You're not running.
01:18:51.460 Okay, good.
01:18:52.320 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:18:53.060 I didn't think so.
01:18:54.120 But, yeah.
01:18:56.220 I have a three-year term, so I'll be in until 2025 at least.
01:18:59.940 Okay.
01:19:00.240 But I'm supporting Reid Bond and Susan Kershaw to be independent voices for Frisco ISD.
01:19:06.560 I just wanted to talk to you.
01:19:08.140 Thank you, Stephanie.
01:19:09.020 I just wanted to talk to you for the one reason that these are the elections that count.
01:19:15.660 They will organize in these.
01:19:17.520 The average American doesn't even go.
01:19:20.580 And literally, they can be won by one vote, six votes.
01:19:26.240 You can change everything if you just grab five people, put them in your car, go and go and vote.
01:19:33.940 Do your homework.
01:19:35.560 But if you have these elections going now locally, you've got to vote.
01:19:41.340 All right.
01:19:41.940 Back in just a second.
01:19:42.960 Clock is ticking.
01:19:44.240 What clock is that, you ask?
01:19:46.080 The one that's counting down to the moment when you're going to need a car repair done, you know, and your warranty is expired.
01:19:52.340 Oh, just because the warranty is expired doesn't mean my car is going to...
01:19:56.440 Wait a minute.
01:19:56.980 What?
01:19:57.820 Yeah, it always happens.
01:19:59.860 Sure, it's a long way off.
01:20:01.040 Or maybe it's right around the corner.

01:21:25.220 Well, don't overstate it.
01:21:26.580 Okay, well, I just, it was kind of a dramatic moment.
01:21:28.980 I wanted to, you know, maybe beef it up just a little bit.
01:21:32.440 When is this glorious?
01:21:35.180 When is the coronation?
01:21:36.380 Coronation.
01:21:36.800 Well, obviously, it's May 6th, 2023.
01:21:39.620 Okay.
01:21:40.500 So we got, what are you doing May 6th, 2023?
01:21:43.780 I, of course, will be watching the coronation of King Charles, because I knew it was happening
01:21:48.860 before 10 seconds ago.
01:21:50.640 Yeah.
01:21:51.200 Completely.
01:21:53.780 It's so bad.
01:21:54.620 You remember, I mean, when I was growing up, we did watch, you know, Prince Charles and Lady
01:22:00.280 Die.
01:22:00.620 He'd stay up.
01:22:01.280 I stayed up 3 o'clock in the morning to watch it.

01:23:03.540 A country can only take so much.
01:23:06.760 Um, I just want to talk to you about, I just want to talk to you about brides today.
01:23:13.200 Uh, now this, normally I'm, I'm not talking to you about brides today.
01:23:17.420 Uh, I think this is the first time in my career I've ever brought up brides today.
01:23:22.180 Today.
01:23:22.740 I think I have to, I think I have to, uh, you know, there's a point where you're like, okay.
01:23:28.820 Okay.
01:23:29.260 I mean, I, we're checking out.
01:23:31.660 We're checking out.
01:23:32.760 This is Hotel California.
01:23:34.960 You are all insane.
01:23:36.820 I'm checking out.
01:23:38.300 We'll do that in 60 seconds.
01:23:39.860 First, let me tell you about Goldline.
01:23:42.260 Wouldn't it be just awesome if we were living in a time where sanity ruled?
01:23:48.740 Yeah.
01:23:49.200 But we're not.
01:23:50.320 So may I suggest Goldline?
01:23:53.400 Goldline.
01:23:54.000 I've always said, you know, first I started saying it's a hedge against inflation.
01:23:58.020 Then about 10 years ago, I started saying it's a hedge against insanity.
01:24:02.140 And, uh, when I start seeing the world start to, you know, return to common sense, then I,
01:24:10.140 I will stop saying that maybe you should have some gold or silver.
01:24:13.000 However, the world is insane and it's only getting faster.
01:24:17.500 In fact, they're right.
01:24:18.440 The insane are running the world.
01:24:21.140 May I suggest you stop listening to the experts and broaden your mind, do your own homework and
01:24:29.160 figure out, is that dollar going to collapse?
01:24:32.300 Is that going to be the world reserve currency forever?
01:24:37.580 Cause it always is that way.
01:24:39.880 You know, Goldline.
01:24:42.180 Call them now at 866-GOLD-LINE, 866-GOLD-LINE.
01:24:47.180 Protect your financial position right now.
01:24:50.020 Just have something in gold or silver and gold and silver is really inexpensive and easy to get
01:24:57.060 into.
01:24:57.480 And I think it's, it's going to help a lot of people.
01:24:59.860 I think, uh, if you had some silver, every box of 100 of the five ounce silver coins, these are
01:25:06.100 very hard to get.
01:25:07.080 You will receive 50 of the mind your business silver bars at no additional cost.
01:25:11.740 Just this week.
01:25:13.160 Call 866-GOLD-LINE, 866-GOLD-LINE.
01:25:17.120 Okay.
01:25:17.900 This will be, I think, the first and only time I ever talk about brides today.
01:25:26.800 It's a wedding magazine for brides.
01:25:30.220 Now, it has its first cover and, uh, on the cover is a dude named Alok.
01:25:44.460 And I, I just, maybe if you're watching the blaze, you can, uh, you can get, can you get a picture
01:25:53.600 of that?
01:25:54.160 That's, uh, hmm.
01:25:56.040 That's the beautiful bride.
01:25:57.680 Wow.
01:25:57.820 That's a bride.
01:25:58.480 All right.
01:25:59.080 Or it's something.
01:26:00.200 It's definitely something.
01:26:03.420 Hmm.
01:26:04.140 The hairiest chest on a bride I've ever seen.
01:26:10.060 I mean, you just, you put, you know, you wax his chest and I think just a block away,
01:26:19.100 people would still go, Oh gosh, that hurt.
01:26:22.780 Uh, and it's not happening to you a block away.
01:26:25.580 They, they could be doing it to his chest and you'd be like, ow, ow, something.
01:26:29.440 I just felt a, I just felt a disturbance in the force.
01:26:33.680 It's like a million hair on somebody's chest.
01:26:37.080 We're just ripped out.
01:26:38.700 Oh, the follicles.
01:26:43.540 Uh, follow your feelings, Luke.
01:26:45.540 That's a dude.
01:26:46.700 Okay.
01:26:47.220 That's clearly a dude.
01:26:48.500 Like if a dude wants to dress in a, I, you know, like that's, I suppose that's fine.
01:26:53.680 But really brides magazine, if I'm, if I'm a bride, okay.
01:26:58.140 Imagine I'm a bride.
01:26:59.840 Oh, what a beautiful, beautiful bride.
01:27:03.780 I would be.
01:27:04.840 I agreed.
01:27:05.860 Okay.
01:27:06.360 Beautiful.
01:27:07.080 So you'd be wonderful.
01:27:10.940 Yeah.
01:27:11.540 I want a picture of me as a bride.
01:27:13.240 I think I should be on the next cover of, I don't know, Glenn magazine.
01:27:17.320 Anyway.
01:27:18.720 So, uh, if, if I were a bride and a female bride,
01:27:22.780 I, I would look at that magazine and say, what the hell are you doing?
01:27:28.160 How many, how many people honest to God,
01:27:32.620 how many people are transgendered and are getting married?
01:27:37.380 Let's say in the next six months, six.
01:27:42.060 Am I being too generous?
01:27:44.200 Too generous.
01:27:44.820 Okay.
01:27:45.180 Yes.
01:27:45.700 How many are there?
01:27:47.520 Not many.
01:27:48.260 Can we stop?
01:27:48.980 Not many.
01:27:49.680 Can we stop?
01:27:50.820 So this isn't a decision made to help the bottom line.
01:27:57.360 No.
01:27:57.860 Right?
01:27:58.220 No.
01:27:58.460 This is not a decision where like, Hey, you know,
01:28:00.500 well, I see.
01:28:02.740 Can we go back to Budweiser?
01:28:04.320 Cause there are three categories.
01:28:05.500 And one of those categories is it is about the bottom line,
01:28:09.140 but I don't believe any of this stuff,
01:28:11.780 but I'm getting so much pressure and I'm going to have advertisers leave me.
01:28:16.900 I'm going to have people picketing out front.
01:28:18.940 If I don't put a dude with a hairy chest in a bridal gown on my cover.
01:28:25.100 Right.
01:28:25.540 So they can say to whatever ESG Lord comes to them,
01:28:29.400 they can say, look, we have, come on.
01:28:31.180 We were the people that put the bearded dude on the cover.
01:28:33.640 You were good.
01:28:34.220 We're good.
01:28:34.620 Don't worry about us.
01:28:35.820 You don't need to protest us.
01:28:37.100 You don't need to oppose us.
01:28:38.640 And, and they expect you just to take it because they know you're afraid of
01:28:43.220 them too.
01:28:44.420 This is storm trooper tactics, man.
01:28:47.400 That's exactly what storm troopers did.
01:28:50.020 You were afraid the storm troopers would come knocking at your door or point
01:28:54.060 you out in a crowd.
01:28:56.120 I mean, so they, they do it.
01:28:58.980 And then they expect us just to continue to do it.
01:29:03.180 I mean, I don't, you know, I, I,
01:29:05.700 I'm not a buyer of brides magazine.
01:29:08.640 No, no.
01:29:10.180 But if I, if I were, let's say bridal today is my favorite.
01:29:16.520 So if I, if this happened to bridal today, I'd cancel my subscription.
01:29:21.240 I wouldn't pick it up at the, well, actually I would pick it up because I want a copy of
01:29:27.280 this for the museum just for a hundred years down the road.
01:29:31.600 They can go, what the F were these people thinking?
01:29:37.020 Are you confident in that?
01:29:38.680 Yes, I am.
01:29:39.360 You're confident in a hundred years.
01:29:40.700 People look back.
01:29:41.240 Odds of the copy book headings with terror and slaughter return.
01:29:46.720 Yep.
01:29:47.620 You think eventually people say this was a crazy period in our history.
01:29:51.980 Stu, this is all been done before.
01:29:56.300 This was done.
01:29:57.700 I think we just talked about this yesterday in the Weimar Republic.
01:30:00.880 Yeah.
01:30:01.500 Exactly.
01:30:02.220 All of this.
01:30:03.920 And then it stopped and it stopped in a bad way, but then it stopped.
01:30:08.360 And now we're doing it again.
01:30:10.820 And do you think we've learned any lessons?
01:30:15.380 Do you think, do you, what's happened is last time, uh, transgender, all of this stuff,
01:30:23.700 surgery, all of it was happening in society, went crazy.
01:30:28.520 And then the Nazis came in and said, they will make it stop.
01:30:32.100 And they made it stop.
01:30:34.220 In the worst way possible.
01:30:35.540 Of course.
01:30:35.840 Yes.
01:30:36.360 This time the transgender movement is also using Nazi talk tactics.
01:30:43.220 It's going to require one side or the other to go, Hey, I'm just here for peace and love
01:30:49.940 and the way of Christ.
01:30:52.100 I don't want to fight with you.
01:30:53.600 I don't want to, I don't want to round anybody up.
01:30:56.280 I, I, I don't even want you to feel bad.
01:30:59.280 Okay.
01:31:00.260 But I got to reestablish the truth here.
01:31:03.560 I hope you're right.
01:31:04.520 I wonder sometimes I don't feel that way all the time that it's going to come back around.
01:31:09.080 Like I think of this when it comes to, for example, racism, we can all look back at, you
01:31:13.300 know, separate water fountains and identify what a terrible, crazy period of history, things
01:31:19.360 that should not have occurred.
01:31:20.580 Right.
01:31:21.520 There's a lot of racial policies and terrible discrimination that went on in that period
01:31:26.940 that we can all identify now was awful.
01:31:29.680 And I, in my mind, we got past that.
01:31:33.380 Now, it doesn't mean that we're perfect, but we got past that, that obvious thing and,
01:31:38.480 and, and identified the way we solved it was to say, Hey, we don't judge people on the basis
01:31:43.580 of the color of their skin.
01:31:44.600 Correct.
01:31:45.220 But then now we, here we are once again, as a society embracing the color of skin as
01:31:52.720 the most important characteristic of a person.
01:31:54.980 Right.
01:31:55.540 And like, I, I feel like we've slipped right back into that.
01:31:57.700 I don't feel like it's almost unfair to look back at that.
01:32:00.940 There's 19 holocausts that have happened to the Jewish people 19 times.
01:32:05.760 Incredible.
01:32:06.040 And every time you're like, never forget.
01:32:08.220 And then you start going that way and they're like, Hey, didn't this happen?
01:32:11.040 Shut up, you anti-Semite.
01:32:14.840 And then it happens again.
01:32:16.620 Okay.
01:32:17.100 So we have to remember the past, but, um, there will be a better period.
01:32:23.380 The question is because of AI and because this is now global, this is the first time the
01:32:30.860 entire earth has gone insane everywhere.
01:32:36.440 Tell me where the safe country is to live where it's sanity.
01:32:39.540 Oh, you, oh, really?
01:32:41.040 Steven Seagal.
01:32:42.300 Yeah.
01:32:42.500 He's pretty sane.
01:32:43.700 Yeah.
01:32:43.980 He's completely not nuts.
01:32:46.540 Yeah.
01:32:46.720 You know, at least they're sticking up for, you know, Christian points of view.
01:32:50.460 It's Putin in Russia.
01:32:53.340 There's no place that is safe.
01:32:56.300 Okay.
01:32:57.080 That could push us into darkness for a very long time, but man will eventually come out of
01:33:04.520 it.
01:33:04.780 They will.
01:33:06.160 And I look forward to that time.
01:33:08.420 I don't think I might be alive when that happens, but I look forward to those days.
01:33:14.200 It will happen.
01:33:16.680 It's not, it does not have to end the way it usually ends.
01:33:21.860 We have access to information and history that others never had.
01:33:29.320 They didn't even have it in the 1930s.
01:33:32.540 We have every, there's no excuse for us this time.
01:33:36.740 Let me put it that way.
01:33:37.500 Like, it's not like you're going to get up to the pearly gates and Peter's going to be
01:33:41.560 like, oh, it's you.
01:33:44.140 You're like, yeah, but I didn't know.
01:33:46.560 I really didn't know any of that was going on.
01:33:50.020 Good old Pete's going to look at you and go, yeah.
01:33:53.280 Uh, you remember something called a Facebook feed, Instagram, Twitter?
01:34:00.980 Yes.
01:34:01.760 You were kind of on that a lot, weren't you?
01:34:04.200 Yeah.
01:34:04.640 It was all right there.
01:34:07.820 Broom.
01:34:09.140 That's what's going to happen.
01:34:10.360 There's no excuse this time.
01:34:12.060 By the way, um, if you like this kind of talk, if you just say, I wish I could hang out with
01:34:20.480 people like Glenn and Stu all day and just, and just, just swim in the sea of we're all
01:34:29.000 going to die, you need to work for Mercury Radio Arts.
01:34:34.480 Uh, this is commercial.

01:34:41.940 Um, we have a, uh, a rare opening and I know this is posted as Mercury.
01:34:48.080 Uh, so I think it is Mercury, not the blaze.
01:34:51.120 Um, we have a rare opening for an editor and we are looking for really good quality editors
01:35:01.060 with lots of experience that are also constantly looking for the next kind of, um, iteration
01:35:10.360 of editing.
01:35:11.520 If that's you, we pay in sandwiches and, and you can be surrounded by people who think
01:35:19.340 the end of the world is nigh.
01:35:21.580 It doesn't get much better than that.
01:35:23.940 No.
01:35:24.320 I mean, you can get that on some street corners.
01:35:26.120 Uh, if you're not all street corners, no, not all of them.
01:35:29.860 No.
01:35:30.460 And no begging is required.
01:35:32.200 I mean, you know, you can do that in your off time, but damn it, you better edit that
01:35:36.480 while you're here.
01:35:38.680 Um, so if you'd like to join that, uh, go to glenbeck.com.
01:35:42.580 You'll find a, uh, you'll find a, I don't know, a job description and things that you have
01:35:48.320 to do.
01:35:48.720 And I don't know.
01:35:50.180 I mean, it's my company, but I don't actually have anything to do with it.
01:35:53.420 I, I, it's like Oompa Loompas run it.
01:35:55.460 I don't even know how the doors open.
01:35:57.020 I really don't.
01:35:57.680 Uh, so you can join us at, uh, Mercury radio arts, by the way, blaze media, uh, is, uh,
01:36:04.520 announcing they announced yesterday, our first, uh, film and series.
01:36:10.320 It's a comedy acquisition and it is funny.
01:36:15.060 Uh, I have been watching these people grow for a couple of years now.
01:36:20.280 And, um, we have just, uh, uh, we have just grabbed, uh, reopening, which has won all kinds
01:36:29.800 of awards, uh, in the indie world.
01:36:33.260 And usually I don't really care about that.
01:36:37.420 Um, but it is the first time I've agreed with critics in a long time.
01:36:42.340 This is really funny.
01:36:43.880 If, if you are a fan of movies like, uh, best of show, uh, or, uh, best in show, best in show.
01:36:54.540 What is the one with a mighty wind?
01:36:56.880 If you are a fan of those, not everybody is.
01:36:59.260 I am a huge fan of those waiting for Guffman's.
01:37:01.860 And I would also say, you know, cause some people, those are a little esoteric for some,
01:37:05.520 uh, I mean, the office is, yes, is mockumentary.
01:37:08.780 Yes.
01:37:09.140 Yes.
01:37:09.780 Yes.
01:37:10.120 So it's, it's all mockumentary.
01:37:11.840 You're exactly right.
01:37:12.580 That's a better one to use.
01:37:13.960 Um, this is called the reopening and it is the, uh, cast and crew of a struggling theater
01:37:21.500 in Pigeon Valley, Tennessee, as they attempt to prepare the theater to reopen after months
01:37:28.740 of being closed down due to COVID.
01:37:31.520 And, uh, it involves the health inspector coming in and giving them all kinds of instruction.
01:37:36.620 It is hysterical.
01:37:38.740 It is really, really good.
01:37:40.340 I think it opens on blaze for subscribers on May 4th.
01:37:46.000 Uh, that's next week.
01:37:47.400 So is it next week?
01:37:48.540 No, two weeks from now.
01:37:49.780 No, I think it's next week.
01:37:50.620 Yeah, it's April 28th today.
01:37:53.460 So yeah, next week.
01:37:54.620 You're kidding me.
01:37:55.120 We're already in the end.
01:37:55.800 It's already happening.
01:37:57.860 When will it stop?
01:37:59.220 Stop this merry-go-round.
01:38:00.620 I want off.
01:38:01.420 The calendar?
01:38:02.320 Yeah.
01:38:02.720 Yeah.
01:38:03.560 Please stop turning the pages because I look a little like Dorian Gray right now.
01:38:09.280 Yeah, this movie's great.
01:38:10.720 I'm excited about it.
01:38:12.000 It's, it's, uh, they're really funny.
01:38:13.720 And the mockery of the things that need desperately to be mocked is so satisfying.
01:38:21.520 So often.
01:38:22.400 I mean, we were talking about this the other day.
01:38:24.400 You know, Kamala Harris is up there blathering on saying these like 45 minute sentences that
01:38:31.280 don't ever get to a conclusion.
01:38:33.360 And we were talking about that.
01:38:35.140 Like they, as far as I know, have not mocked that one time on Saturday Night Live.
01:38:39.480 That's not making fun of Joe Biden because he's dementia and maybe they have an issue with
01:38:43.740 that, you know, okay, I guess you can find a line there.
01:38:46.620 There's nothing you can find funny about Kamala freaking Harris.
01:38:50.140 Nothing.
01:38:50.660 Nothing.
01:38:51.200 Nothing.
01:38:51.460 And, and, and this movie isn't like, Hey, here's conservative points.
01:38:55.560 No, it's not that at all.
01:38:56.620 It's not everyone will enjoy this.
01:38:58.320 And you'll, you'll like the mockery of the nonsense that we've just lived through.
01:39:01.920 We are also, um, uh, developing a new comedy series with the same people, a love letter
01:39:07.540 to small town America that features two dune buggy delivering paper boys at the dusty bluffs
01:39:15.600 gazette.
01:39:17.140 Uh, and, uh, it's a little like Napoleon dynamite.
01:39:21.460 If you liked that, uh, so become a member of the blaze blaze TV, the movie, uh, premieres
01:39:27.640 next week, May 4th, only on blaze tv.com slash Glenn, uh, use question everything.

01:40:29.860 Okay.
01:40:30.460 And yeah, that makes me somebody who I am going to come out and say, I read Brides magazine
01:40:36.140 every month.
01:40:37.240 Okay.
01:40:38.080 Don't judge me.

01:41:10.220 I mean, we went down the blinds, I mean, the, uh, the bridal magazine, so we might as
01:41:21.420 well go here.
01:41:22.980 Um, Barbie, do we talk about Barbie now?
01:41:29.660 Uh, do we, I don't know if we have time to talk about Barbie here.
01:41:32.620 I mean, well, we do, we clearly have time to talk about Barbie, but both of us, to be
01:41:37.660 honest with you, are a little concerned about cutting it short because we have a lot of
01:41:42.580 things to say about Barbie.
01:41:43.880 I think it's a fascinating story.
01:41:46.260 I do too.
01:41:46.880 And some of the, uh, the, the people, people's idiotic comments about it are, I think are
01:41:51.960 fascinating as well.
01:41:52.820 Uh, but there's now a, uh, what is it?
01:41:56.840 A down syndrome Barbie, which I completely, I love, I love.
01:42:02.180 It's interesting to me that the people who are trying to make sure that down syndrome
01:42:05.760 babies are never born are all celebrating the down syndrome Barbie.
01:42:09.900 Uh, but maybe that's because, oh, they're kind of cute and cuddly and, you know, once
01:42:14.200 we kill all the people, I'd like to have one of them around kind of like a doll.
01:42:17.780 It's amazing.
01:42:18.820 How many articles have we read where they have literally been celebrating the, uh, the
01:42:23.400 death, the, the, the elimination path to elimination of their, of them in entirety.
01:42:29.120 Right.
01:42:29.460 Like, I mean, we talk about that in totally different contexts normally.
01:42:33.780 Yeah.
01:42:34.060 You know, it's usually like some crazy dictator trying to wipe out some group of people.
01:42:39.320 Now it's like, oh, well look at medical experts are celebrating X, Y, and Z.
01:42:43.380 It's very dark.
01:42:44.520 And so I'm glad, I'm glad they took a stand in this way.
01:42:47.860 Yeah.
01:42:48.420 Um, but we have more, we have more to say about the different Barbies too.
01:42:53.000 And I say we save it maybe for Monday.
01:42:55.860 Sure.
01:42:56.260 Uh, or if we have time before the end of the show, because I have a feeling once Stu and
01:43:02.760 I both start on Barbie, cause we never have talked about Barbie before.
01:43:07.080 Okay.
01:43:07.520 Once we start down that road, just based on our conversation prior to the pod and broadcast
01:43:14.460 today, uh, I think we have a lot to say.
01:43:18.560 I think we have a lot to say and, uh, could get a little dicey too.
01:43:22.400 So stand by.
01:43:23.640 It could come at you at any time.
01:43:25.240 Don't know.
01:43:26.440 Don't want to promise anything.
01:43:27.920 Don't want to threaten.
01:43:29.100 But Barbie talk is coming back in a minute.
01:43:37.520 The Glenn back program.
01:43:46.180 Lori wrote in about her dog's experience with rough green.
01:43:49.140 She says, and I quote, I have three very picky pugs.
01:43:54.140 And I want to challenge you to say that 10 times, three, very picky pugs.
01:44:00.480 Uh, they actually licked the bottom of their bowls clean for the very first time since we
01:44:04.940 gave them rough greens.
01:44:05.800 They have been very active every set ever since they seem extremely happy.
01:44:11.960 What?
01:44:12.640 You're very picky pugs.
01:44:13.960 Can't talk.
01:44:16.360 My very picky pugs write poetry.
01:44:19.860 Anyway, um, uh, rough greens is Fridays are just so bad.
01:44:26.160 I just don't care.
01:44:27.920 Anyway, uh, rough greens.
01:44:30.420 It's not a dog food.
01:44:31.420 It's a supplement.
01:44:32.300 You sprinkle on the food and it's full of vitamins and minerals, probiotics, and
01:44:35.500 antioxidants, things that are going to make your dog healthy and happy.
01:44:39.660 Perky.
01:44:40.180 Really?
01:44:41.180 These, these, uh, picky pugs are perky now because of rough greens.
01:44:46.480 It's rough greens.com slash Beck rough greens.com slash Beck.
01:44:51.980 Call them.
01:44:52.980 Now your first bag is free.
01:44:55.020 Not only do you get Glenn TV, but also if you're looking for an 8 PM show, you might

01:45:06.820 The promo code is question everything.
01:45:08.540 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:45:26.900 Uh, we are heard every day and watched, uh, every day on radio stations all over, uh, America.
01:45:35.520 And we are also watched and carried on blaze TV, blaze audio and podcasts.
01:45:42.700 The same can be said for our good friend, Rick Burgess, who is, uh, part of, uh, Rick and
01:45:49.160 Bubba and Rick and Bubba are on, uh, every morning on blaze TV where you can watch their
01:45:56.120 show.
01:45:56.480 They are also heard on radio nationwide, uh, and very, very funny and really, really good
01:46:02.720 guys.
01:46:03.700 Rick, uh, uh, Burgess is with us now.
01:46:06.260 He just did an interview that I heard with William Shatner, um, where, uh, William kept
01:46:12.740 referring to, uh, Rick as Bubba the entire time.
01:46:17.280 And, uh, Rick was nice enough not to tell him.
01:46:21.740 Yeah.
01:46:22.280 Bubba's not on the phone.
01:46:23.540 This is Rick, dude.
01:46:24.880 This is Rick, but welcome to the program.
01:46:28.100 Bubba.
01:46:29.500 Yeah.
01:46:30.040 Yes.
01:46:30.360 I'm, uh, yeah, I go, I answered to Rick, our Bubba, this is Bubba and over, you know,
01:46:34.460 we're in our 29th year in four months.
01:46:37.640 So at this point, if someone calls me Bubba at the grocery store, I just answer.
01:46:42.820 If somebody asks me how his wife's doing, I just pretend my wife is not happy about this.
01:46:48.720 My wife, my wife literally says, Glenn, she says, if another person asks me if I'm married
01:46:53.260 to Rick and Bubba, I'm going to scream.
01:46:54.800 Uh, she, she's, I'm only married to one of them.
01:46:59.380 Right.
01:46:59.620 So look, we're interchangeable and you don't interrupt William Shatner.
01:47:02.800 You don't correct William Shatner.
01:47:04.520 I had him on my CNN program.
01:47:06.440 Uh, I don't know.
01:47:07.740 How long was it ago?
01:47:08.860 Almost 20 years ago now.
01:47:10.140 And he was, he said, you know, I watch you every day.
01:47:14.320 And I said, that sounds kind of creepy.
01:47:16.300 And he said, no, I watch you every day.
01:47:18.360 He said, because it's, it's as if I'm a pyromaniac and I'm just watching everything
01:47:26.080 burn down in front of me.
01:47:31.260 It's really funny.
01:47:32.160 Have you noticed, have you noticed, and I said this when it was over, you know, Speedy,
01:47:36.380 all the guys on the show, they're like, why didn't you correct him?
01:47:38.820 Of course, Bubba loved the fact that didn't cause he ended up having to miss the interview
01:47:41.840 cause you interview William Shatner when he can.
01:47:44.280 Yeah.
01:47:44.500 Or what he tells you to.
01:47:45.300 And so I said, well, don't worry, Bubba, there's no interviewing Shatner.
01:47:49.420 He, he said for eight minutes what he wanted to say and we were done, you know?
01:47:52.840 And, uh, and what's sad though is Bubba is the one who loves Star Trek.
01:47:57.300 I never watched it as a kid cause it wasn't my thing.
01:48:00.240 I really thought Boston legal in that character, you know, was the most hilarious one.
01:48:06.060 Oh, he is a phenomenal, I mean, he never, I mean, this is not what you're on for.
01:48:10.360 So we're going to stop talking about William Shatner, but he is an awesome actor.
01:48:14.620 He really is in a very stilted sort of William Shatner sort of way.
01:48:20.680 Anyway, um, it says right here on my little piece of paper, uh, the topic I'm supposed to
01:48:27.140 address is why are the majority of church congregations made up of women?
01:48:31.940 Where are the men?
01:48:32.800 But I'm not going with that because you are, uh, the founder of the man church.
01:48:39.340 So the answer, where are all the men?
01:48:42.220 They're at Rick or Bubba's church.
01:48:46.540 That is correct.
01:48:48.000 Let's, let's talk about this.
01:48:49.760 Here's what we know.
01:48:50.940 Okay.
01:48:51.180 We know this.
01:48:52.040 Do you ever get tired of people hitting you with stats about something and you begin to
01:48:55.760 scream?
01:48:56.240 Well, are we going to do anything about it?
01:48:57.880 We're just talking about this.
01:48:59.060 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:48:59.540 So we have, we have been on every, this is what every father's day, every time I've ever
01:49:04.140 been in church, the guy gets up and appreciate it.
01:49:07.080 And he says, well, we've done the survey.
01:49:08.600 We've done the survey again.
01:49:09.920 Let me tell you men something.
01:49:11.560 Uh, you, the Barner research is in and, and, and there is no influence that's anywhere near
01:49:17.500 the influence that God gave a man.
01:49:19.460 Now, let me be clear.
01:49:20.260 Uh, that does not mean inequality.
01:49:22.820 The men and women are of equal value and equal standing before God almighty.
01:49:27.420 He created them male and female.
01:49:28.880 However, there's a headship and that he gave to man and there's a maternal connection he
01:49:34.320 gave to woman that you can't just interchange and the headship does not meet inequality as
01:49:39.060 we know, you know, that Jesus himself said, I'm here to do the will of my father.
01:49:43.440 There was a headship and the father, but the father and the son are equal, you know, so
01:49:47.740 it's not, it's not inequality.
01:49:48.860 So let's drop all that.
01:49:50.680 But, but what, but what that we hear is that Barner and all these others have researched
01:49:54.460 that inside a home, if the mother and father are there, if the man becomes a follower of
01:49:59.800 Christ, there is the low, the highest it ever was, there's a 93% chance the rest of the
01:50:05.060 family will follow his spiritual lead.
01:50:07.160 And then I think now down is to 78 or 82, but it drops substantially down to if, if, if
01:50:14.280 mom becomes a spiritual leader of the home, it gets like the 23% that the rest of the
01:50:18.340 house will follow.
01:50:19.160 If it's a child, it's in single digits that that child could influence the rest of their
01:50:23.160 family.
01:50:23.940 So the question that we asked at themanchurch.com or God finally, you know, convicted me, are
01:50:29.880 you just going to keep talking about this?
01:50:31.300 Or why don't you quit waiting for someone else to do something?
01:50:33.800 And I said, well, what are we actually doing about it?
01:50:36.620 And most Western churches, if you go in, you will find that they'll say this on Father's
01:50:41.440 Day.
01:50:41.980 But if you looked at the budget or an investment or any game plan to reach and disciple men
01:50:46.600 so they can actually do the job as spiritually leading, spiritually leading their home, you
01:50:51.760 find that it's financed dead last, or there's really not a game plan at all.
01:50:56.200 So here was the question we have to ask.
01:50:57.760 Do we really believe it?
01:50:59.580 And in this country right now, wherever you go, when you see chaos, you see one thing.
01:51:05.080 Men have left their proper place.
01:51:07.060 And now we're getting into this, you know, biological men now want to identify as women.
01:51:11.780 And have you noticed?
01:51:12.700 They're becoming dangerous.
01:51:14.260 Anytime men leave their proper place under the authority of the one and only living God,
01:51:19.580 they're dangerous.
01:51:20.360 They always have been.
01:51:21.420 We always will be.
01:51:22.580 And so you're not going to address this nation's spiritual problem with some kind of worldly
01:51:28.500 solution.
01:51:29.820 And so at TheManChurch.com and here at the Rick and Bubba Show, we said, well, if that
01:51:34.780 will have a huge impact, if men have the most influence, if we got men in their proper place,
01:51:40.360 wouldn't we solve a lot of our problems?
01:51:42.620 And so we're being intentional about reaching, but then discipling men from spiritual infancy
01:51:50.320 to spiritual maturity, because we can't just tell them they need to spiritually lead their
01:51:54.260 family.
01:51:54.680 You got to equip us to do it.
01:51:57.380 Equip me.
01:51:58.700 Give me a place to start.
01:52:02.360 Exactly.
01:52:02.940 I mean, I told everybody, how would I feel if I went to church every Father's Day and
01:52:06.560 they told me I was supposed to be the mechanic of my home?
01:52:08.880 And they kept quoting scripture.
01:52:10.200 And I said, my goodness, the Bible clearly says that.
01:52:12.300 And then all of a sudden they just left.
01:52:13.980 And I looked around and I said, anybody going to show me how to be a mechanic?
01:52:16.360 I don't know anything about cars.
01:52:17.880 So when all we do is challenge men, but we don't equip them, we just frustrate them.
01:52:22.440 I appreciate what Promise Keepers did.
01:52:24.300 That was a great movement.
01:52:25.320 I appreciate men's conferences.
01:52:26.820 I still speak at them.
01:52:28.200 But if all we do is challenge and we don't equip, we're just frustrating men and we must
01:52:33.420 reach them and disciple them.
01:52:34.720 So at themanchurch.com, we have a whole strategy where you can just plug in.
01:52:40.540 And we have now our fourth 40-week curriculum that's coming out.
01:52:43.760 And this curriculum is designed to get men into small groups and actually equip them,
01:52:49.940 disciple them, teach them the Word of God, teach them to be able to handle the Word of
01:52:53.800 God, teach them what God's standard is, teach them the truth, not just shout at them and
01:52:59.200 tell them to do it, actually show them how to do it.
01:53:01.860 So we still challenge, but we also equip.
01:53:04.460 And so we have multiple resources available and we go into the churches and we set up
01:53:09.660 this strategy.
01:53:10.980 And like I say, we've got, like we're talking about a new resource that we just put out
01:53:14.960 that kind of says what we need to say, right?
01:53:17.320 We need to be transformed.
01:53:18.640 And that's the latest resource that we're putting out right now.
01:53:21.620 It's a 31-day devotional.
01:53:23.280 And listen to this, you know how Jesus is always counterculture, Glenn?
01:53:26.600 The subtitle, picture how mad this makes everybody, embracing the death of self and the power
01:53:32.900 of God.
01:53:33.280 Go out to today's world and say, you need to die to yourself.
01:53:36.580 That's counterculture, but that's exactly what Jesus said.
01:53:39.640 Well, and it is so important now.
01:53:41.760 I mean, we are all, we're making ourselves into gods.
01:53:46.860 We, you know, I can decide sexuality.
01:53:49.280 No, you can't.
01:53:50.540 Gender is assigned by God.
01:53:52.540 You, you, that's not within your power.
01:53:54.580 Who do you think you are?
01:53:55.620 Well, God, that's who I am.
01:53:57.580 Right.
01:53:58.040 And it's a real problem.
01:54:00.260 Self-worship is the number one.
01:54:02.120 That's the largest glowing religion we have in our society right now.
01:54:05.420 It's the worship of self.
01:54:06.400 So, themanchurch.com, themanchurch.com.
01:54:11.660 Now, I've got a question on the, from the other side.
01:54:14.880 You know, the first question was, you know, why are the majority of church congregations
01:54:18.860 made up of women?
01:54:19.820 Where are the men?
01:54:20.900 In your man church, where are all the women?
01:54:23.780 Uh-huh.
01:54:24.620 See, well, I'm going to put you on the rope.
01:54:26.140 You go ahead and answer that one.
01:54:28.260 Well, that's an easy question.
01:54:29.740 They're not invited.
01:54:31.360 So, well, here's what it is.
01:54:34.740 Let me tell you where we established the strategy.
01:54:37.120 Honestly, if you go into the church, women and children are being taken care of.
01:54:40.980 Yeah.
01:54:41.400 There is a game plan for them, and it's a flawed strategy.
01:54:44.800 The Western church, I don't know when this happened, what was the first seminary to do
01:54:47.900 this, and I use the word seminary loosely.
01:54:50.320 They came a strategy that says you reach the family through the children.
01:54:53.440 You do a great children's program, and you reach the children, then those children reach
01:54:57.260 mom, and then mom reaches dad.
01:54:59.160 Yep.
01:54:59.460 Total hogwash.
01:55:01.300 They don't understand men.
01:55:02.660 Men are more than willing to drop their kids and their wives off at church, and then go play
01:55:06.140 golf.
01:55:06.560 Yes.
01:55:06.840 Go hunting.
01:55:07.520 Go back to the office.
01:55:09.460 Yes.
01:55:09.800 And what's happened, we've designed a lot of Western churches, and they're designed to
01:55:13.960 reach women and children, and men are on the outskirts.
01:55:17.260 They may be pandering.
01:55:20.060 They may be appeasing their wife by going.
01:55:22.320 But the children soon find out, this is something that mama wants to do.
01:55:26.280 Daddy's just giving in if he comes with us at all, but this really isn't something he's
01:55:30.460 made a priority, so then the children don't buy in back to that influence again.
01:55:34.720 So we found in Scripture that three times a year, God was telling Moses in the Old Testament,
01:55:40.260 three times a year, this is in Deuteronomy 16, 16, and Exodus 34, 23, three times a year,
01:55:46.340 bring me the men.
01:55:47.100 So there was a precedent that God said, there is a time when I want to speak just to the
01:55:52.060 men, and I'll tell them what to now implement into their families and into society.
01:55:56.820 Look at the creation.
01:55:58.700 Adam is the one who's told about the tree.
01:56:01.360 Eve's not even created yet.
01:56:03.180 God tells Adam what they can and cannot do, and expects him to then tell the wife that
01:56:07.840 he gives her.
01:56:08.820 And Adam, of course, as we know, fails at that job.
01:56:10.960 And when God shows up, he doesn't ask Eve what happened.
01:56:14.220 He says, Adam, what's happened here?
01:56:16.180 So God has always expected men to hear instruction from him and then implement that into their
01:56:22.280 homes, into the church, and into society.
01:56:24.740 And we have failed miserably at equipping men to do that.
01:56:28.620 So we're just stepping up and saying, we'll do it.
01:56:31.300 I just have to tell you, somewhere in New York City, there is a maybe 24-year-old intern
01:56:36.960 in a cubicle at Media Matters, who is now just a heap of blubbering jello after the
01:56:44.720 last couple of minutes.
01:56:45.980 And I thank you for that, Rick.
01:56:47.420 I do thank you for that.
01:56:49.780 Well, listen, Glenn.
01:56:50.920 Yeah.
01:56:51.200 Let me be clear.
01:56:52.220 Okay, let me be clear.
01:56:53.100 We don't do images of camo.
01:56:55.280 I do all these things, but that doesn't make you a man.
01:56:57.760 We don't do sports analogies.
01:56:59.400 We don't do the uncomfortable, here comes a sports hero who came to Jesus, and he gets
01:57:03.560 up and tries to tell you sports stories and force them down on scripture.
01:57:06.960 What we're, that's not what makes you a man.
01:57:08.760 If you're good at sports, you can climb a mountain, you can lift a lot of weight, you
01:57:11.840 want to bar fight, you got camo on, you know, you can, you can, you, that's not what makes
01:57:17.260 a man.
01:57:17.620 So we don't use any of those images.
01:57:19.680 What makes you a man is whether you're a follower of Christ or not.
01:57:22.520 And if we had told men that Jesus Christ actually said, deny yourself, pick up your cross
01:57:28.560 and follow me, enter by a narrow gate, those who choose to follow me, the path will be
01:57:32.900 hard and most of you can't do it.
01:57:34.560 See, the Marines said the few, the proud, the Marines, Jesus said the few, the humble,
01:57:39.880 my disciples.
01:57:41.200 And if we were telling men that it's actually the most masculine man thing you could ever
01:57:46.700 do is actually decide to follow Jesus.
01:57:48.880 That's one of our slogans.
01:57:49.920 Be a man, follow Jesus.
01:57:51.240 Disciple men, change everything.
01:57:54.100 Yeah.
01:57:54.200 But in the Marines, you get that snappy uniform that the chicks dig.
01:57:58.700 Yeah.
01:57:59.220 And unfortunately, following Jesus, you get a cross.
01:58:01.940 That's right.
01:58:03.080 That's right.
01:58:03.740 And it's becoming more and more, uh, less fun, if you will, but more and more important
01:58:09.580 every day.
01:58:11.260 Oh, look, I go to bed every night sleeping, not because my life's easy, but because my life
01:58:16.060 is secure.
01:58:17.000 It's under the authority of Christ.
01:58:18.620 And, and to me, there's nothing more important, important than that.
01:58:22.240 True masculinity is Christ centered masculinity.
01:58:25.160 You know, when God became a man, he did it perfectly.
01:58:28.920 That should be our example.
01:58:30.720 Rick, thank you so much.
01:58:31.700 Thanks for everything you guys do.

01:59:31.040 Uh, in case you haven't been to the grocery store lately, inflation, uh, seems to be there.
01:59:37.760 I saw a, a McDonald's commercial and they were like 20 McNuggets and fries for nine 99.
01:59:44.680 And I was like, what you're advertising that you should keep that one to yourself until
01:59:49.900 it's a surprise at the window.
01:59:52.200 Holy cow.
01:59:53.720 Inflation is kind of, um, uh, going up now.
01:59:57.060 May I suggest that inflation is going to continue to go up, especially on things like meat.
02:00:02.460 Would you please lock in the price of really great beef and beef that is, is grown here
02:00:10.940 in America?
02:00:12.600 It, you know, they can ship cows in from Peru or China.
02:00:17.920 They can ship them even dead here to America.
02:00:21.040 As long as they're cut into steaks or ground into hamburger here, it's a product of the U S.
02:00:26.480 No, it's not.
02:00:28.520 I want American beef.
02:00:30.120 I want really good beef.
02:00:31.660 I want a good price.
02:00:33.220 And you're kidding me.
02:00:34.560 I can lock in the price.
