00:00:00.000
Well, hello America and welcome to the program. I sincerely hope that we are not at a place
00:00:08.760
as Americans to where we are going to let the Democrats jam down the Green New Deal
00:00:15.200
because we're at home panicked. I want to have a frank conversation with you and ask you where
00:00:23.240
you stand. I mean, I'm in the danger zone. I'm right at the edge. I'm 56. In Italy, they're saying
00:00:31.700
if you're sick and you're 60, don't even come in. So I'm in the danger zone. I would rather have my
00:00:39.620
children stay home and all of us who are over 50 go in and keep this economy going and working.
00:00:48.580
Even if we all get sick, I'd rather die than kill the country because it's not the economy
00:00:55.260
that's dying. It's the country. And I'll show you just what's happening to us just by looking at the
00:01:02.360
talks with the stimulus right now. We have that coming up in one minute. This is the Glenn Beck
00:01:09.000
program. You know, there was a day and you know, the time I'm talking about when nothing for you
00:01:17.820
pick a days full of adventures, you could do absolutely anything you could, you could get
00:01:23.500
hurt and you'd be like, ah, brush it off. Not a problem. Doesn't affect me. I'm going to live
00:01:28.140
forever. Uh-huh. Then, uh, there came the time when you had that birthday and you're like, wow,
00:01:35.160
everything has changed. Then the pain came. It came slowly stealing your daily world of tennis games
00:01:41.860
or pleasant afternoon walks at a time biking, whatever it is that you enjoy. Maybe it's settled in
00:01:47.340
overnight and has never left you. Either way, you have two choices. You can fight it or you can
00:01:53.020
succumb to it. May I recommend? I fought it, fought it, fought it for such a long time and I was losing
00:02:00.320
the battle. And I would have periods where I'd be like, I am so much better. And then it would just go
00:02:05.240
right back down. I haven't had that, uh, that, uh, hill and veil anymore because I take relief factor.
00:02:13.820
Now you have two choices. I choose to fight it. 70% of the people who try relief factor go on to order
00:02:21.520
more and they fight it every day. And pretty soon it surrenders the three week quick start. Try it now
00:02:27.820
for third to for 1995. Try it for three weeks. You really don't have anything to lose except your pain
00:02:34.920
and you will gain your life back. Try it now. Relieffactor.com or call 800-583-84. 800-583-84.
00:02:43.740
It's relieffactor.com. Democratically socialist economies. Arguing with socialists. First of all,
00:02:49.720
it's, it's democratic. The new book from Glenn Beck. Um, and the other thing too is that you can
00:02:55.020
pre-order it now on Amazon. Ah, thank you very much. Oh yeah. Hello secret agents. It's Glenn Beck
00:03:11.940
and the Glenn Beck program. Along with my faithful sidekick, it's, uh, Stu Bregeer, our executive
00:03:17.780
producer and, uh, so much more. Hello, Stu. How are you, Glenn? I'm, I, uh, I'm still at home,
00:03:26.620
but I, you know, I'm changing on this thing and I think the president is changing on this as well.
00:03:32.200
You know, the doctors are saying that we have to hunker down for three months. Yesterday, he made a
00:03:36.980
very big point. Hmm. See this plan? See this plan right here? Plan says 15 days, 15 days. And he said
00:03:46.220
yesterday, I'm not saying that next week it's over, but I'm telling you it's not going to be months
00:03:51.840
from now. And now the doctors and the media and everybody else say, that's crazy talk. That's crazy
00:03:57.220
talk. Let me tell you what crazy talk is. So the stimulus package yesterday went in front of the
00:04:05.120
house because Nancy Pelosi had to fly right back in because they have an opportunity because so many
00:04:11.400
Republicans in the Senate now are missing. So they have an opportunity. They, they can get all kinds
00:04:17.500
of things in. So here's what the Democrats proposed yesterday as a stimulus bill to make sure America
00:04:26.400
keeps running. Now I want you to understand, we're not talking about the shutdown of the economy. We're
00:04:32.640
not talking about saving the economy. We're talking about saving lives. We're talking about saving the
00:04:39.640
nation. Our whole system is up for grabs. If this thing collapses and we're very close to collapse.
00:04:48.660
So here's what they did. They put their heads together and they came up with 1.5, uh, 1.5,000
00:04:55.020
in aid per individual. So $1,500 per individual, as much as $7,500 for a family of five, $1,500 per person
00:05:04.000
instead of the 1,200 on the table under the Senate measure laid out on Sunday. Now, unlike the latest
00:05:10.040
plan from the Senate Republicans, higher earners would have to pay back part or all of that assistance
00:05:16.120
over three years. If their taxable income is $7,500 or more, uh, for a single filer or 150 or more for,
00:05:25.180
uh, couples filing jointly, the mother, the money would be available to anyone. Listen to this,
00:05:31.140
anyone with a tax ID number and retirees and people who are unemployed rather than just people
00:05:37.380
who file taxes for 2019 or get social security. Is it possible? I mean, tax ID number, can you get
00:05:44.580
a tax ID number and still be an illegal alien? It would create a temporary federal pandemic
00:05:52.160
unemployment compensation of $600 a week for any worker affected by the virus and eligible for
00:05:58.960
unemployment compensation benefits. It would expand paid leave and family medical leave.
00:06:04.640
It would aim to help current borrowers with student debt, seeks more than $500 billion in grants,
00:06:12.000
interest-free loans to small businesses, would provide $200 billion in funding for states,
00:06:18.360
$15 billion to local governments through community development block grants. They also want to ensure
00:06:24.980
that states can carry out this year's election and they want to have a $4 billion grant in funding
00:06:31.220
for election. Well, that's the thing I want to do is turn the elections over to the Democrats.
00:06:37.140
It also would require airlines to adopt strict green new deal style emission rules.
00:06:43.660
Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Here, here we, here we, here we go. Uh, there's a pay equity clause. Oh,
00:06:50.700
so they have to, now companies have to make sure that everyone is paid exactly the same, um, funding for
00:06:58.820
community newspapers. What about bloggers? More people listen to blogs and read blogs than they
00:07:06.240
read local newspapers. What about local bloggers? They want free internet.
00:07:11.280
How do you, how do you, how do you provide free internet? How do you do that? I mean, do we just
00:07:19.060
pay these companies to provide the free internet for everybody? Is that what we do?
00:07:22.920
The main thing I think is you have to negotiate with the internet ferry. Uh, the internet ferry
00:07:26.600
flies in and leaves the internet under your pillow. Um, and that happens.
00:07:31.440
All right. Good. Um, a hundred million dollars for NASA's environmental restoration group. I don't
00:07:41.320
even know what that is. Mandatory paid sick leave for every single business, hiding the citizenship
00:07:48.120
status for college students from the census bureau. Now, when I was thinking last night, you know,
00:07:54.180
it's going to save this country. You know, it's going to, you know, it's going to do it. You know,
00:07:58.320
we really need to do for Corona virus. Cause I'm staying at home. We're all staying at home. We're
00:08:03.880
all crippling our small businesses. You know what I really want the Democrats to do is get in there.
00:08:11.720
That citizenship status being hidden from, for the college students from the census bureau. I mean,
00:08:17.560
man, we got to do that anyway, by hook or by crook and good thing, uh, the hook and the crook,
00:08:25.220
uh, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are, are in office. They've demanded those stringent fuel
00:08:32.080
emission standards for airlines. Um, you know, cause if you're going to give them billions of
00:08:36.940
dollars in loans, they need to cut their carbon commissions by half in 2050. Don't you think?
00:08:42.100
I mean, otherwise you're not worth saving. You're not worth saving. They also want a billion dollars
00:08:48.580
for the airlines because, um, they're going to need new planes. And so they're going to,
00:08:54.700
they're going to create a, a buyback program for all those old planes because they're less efficient.
00:09:00.580
So we've now, they're now proposing a cash for clunkers for airplanes. They also want tax credits
00:09:09.520
for solar energy and wind energy and, uh, provisions to force employers to give special new treatment to
00:09:16.100
big late, uh, big labor as if that's not enough. Uh, Elon Omar and, uh, Presley, uh, Ayanna Presley
00:09:25.900
from Massachusetts. She's the forgotten, uh, beetle, isn't she? Presley. I think she's the one
00:09:32.500
that nobody even knows. I, I, I don't, Presley is, I don't know her enough. She's the Ringo, right?
00:09:37.820
Yeah. She's the Ringo. She's the forgotten one. Right. I always think it's, it's, uh, AOC
00:09:43.080
is McCartney. Um, Omar is Harrison. Uh, no, no. Omar is, uh, Lenin is Lenin. Uh, Harrison
00:09:52.100
is, uh, Rashida Tlaib and then Presley is Ringo. Yeah. Without the career after the Beatles.
00:10:00.640
Oh yeah. Well, I mean, we'll see what happens after this. It's hard to imagine, but yes, uh,
00:10:05.540
you're right. I don't, I don't know how good the solo career is going to go. Yeah. So they want to
00:10:09.800
just cancel some student debt, uh, because no one should have to choose between paying their student
00:10:14.280
loan payment and putting food on the table or keeping their family safe and healthy. Uh-huh. Now James
00:10:20.800
Clyburn was the, uh, one that was actually honest about things. He said, this is a tremendous opportunity
00:10:27.360
to restructure things, to fit our vision. Oh man. That's almost a quote from the Fabian window.
00:10:34.820
Let's, uh, uh, remold heat the earth so we can remold it closer to our heart's desire.
00:10:41.840
Thank you very much. James Clyburn. Both drafts, uh, are emerging now. They are dramatically different.
00:10:50.160
Obviously the Senate bill also has the payroll tax suspension in it. Democrats say, no, no, no,
00:10:56.580
we just need to expand the health insurance premium tax credits under Obamacare.
00:11:02.500
Ah, okay. All right. Okay. I don't think this is going to play well. I don't think people are,
00:11:10.400
you know, even last week, two weeks ago, maybe when we were a little more of a panic,
00:11:15.280
I think Americans are sick of this. I think Americans are just like, I've done it. I've,
00:11:22.300
I've, I've sat in my home for a while. I saw, I mean, I watched your wife have her breakdown
00:11:26.920
yesterday online, Stu. Oh, I watched it. I saw it. Oh yeah. Well, I'm, I'm glad, uh, I,
00:11:33.200
I'm glad you did. No, I know. It's a, it's a, it's an ongoing issue. She's having a tough time
00:11:37.500
with it. Look, it's, it's a difficult, uh, change for her. And I think for, as, as is pointed out with
00:11:43.920
their responses, you know, hundreds and hundreds just to her, but I mean, millions of people around
00:11:48.580
the country are going from maybe at work, maybe, uh, working all day at an office, doing all sorts
00:11:55.420
of different things to, I am now homeschooling, jumping in the middle of a curriculum with my two
00:12:01.560
kids at home by myself all day. We can never go anywhere. That's a tough, a tough transition for a
00:12:07.100
lot. I know. I know. I mean, it's, it's terrifying. If I, if I lived in the, you know, the, the apartment
00:12:15.680
that I lived in with, when I had my two kids with me and I was divorced, it was what? 800 square feet.
00:12:22.180
Yeah. Probably. Yeah. Yeah. 800 square feet. If I were trapped in that apartment with those kids
00:12:27.900
all day, I'd throw myself off the balcony. I mean, you just, you would go crazy after a while. You just
00:12:35.400
would. Yeah. And that just would. That's one of the things that they were talking about in the
00:12:38.780
press conference yesterday. And it's like, well, you know what? There are real health
00:12:43.240
ramifications to what we're attempting. Oh, they were, you know, no, no, no, no, no. I saw,
00:12:48.740
no, I saw the reporter in the front. Uh, yes, Mr. President, you're trying to say there will be
00:12:56.100
suicides from this, from the economy going down and people losing their job and staying at home with
00:13:04.520
their kids. You think there's going to be an increase of suicides only in all cases in human
00:13:09.500
history, right? Every time, especially when you're talking about a, what we're looking at minus 24%
00:13:16.980
GDP in one quarter, you know, uh, uh, we've seen projections of 30% unemployment, uh, that would be
00:13:25.680
higher than the great depression. Those sorts of things. I don't know if you remember the great
00:13:30.220
depression. There was a lot of news reports about it at the time. Lots of people jumping off of things.
00:13:34.840
Yeah. You know what? And that was in a time when people actually,
00:13:38.120
they were closer to the bottom. You know what I mean? Yeah. A lot of people didn't have air
00:13:43.240
well, nobody had air conditioning. A lot of people didn't have refrigeration or telephones or cars or
00:13:47.540
anything else. They weren't going to a store where everything was wrapped beautifully. They were used to
00:13:53.080
actually having nothing in comparison and they were killing themselves. Now, can you imagine this
00:13:59.420
country with 30% unemployment, no faith whatsoever, no, no infrastructure for, you know, going and
00:14:07.920
getting help with the, with faith. It all has to come through the government. My gosh, what a nightmare
00:14:13.900
it'll be. Yeah. But yeah, I decided, I decided, Hey, if you can't beat them, which we're going to,
00:14:20.780
if you can't beat them, join them. And so I came up with, I want to be a helper to the Democrats.
00:14:26.260
I want to be a helper. Okay. So I came up with some other things that aren't in the bill that I think
00:14:32.600
we should demand. And I I'm looking for anybody in Congress who will just stand up and say, you know
00:14:39.040
what? I'd like to add an addendum here to the Democrat. I'm thinking about switching and becoming
00:14:45.540
a Democrat because I understand your thinking. And, uh, let me help you out on that. So I'll give
00:14:51.880
those to you here in one minute. Stand by. All right. Here's the thing you need to know. The ship
00:15:06.060
is not going to go down. America is not going to be defeated by a virus. It's not going to be
00:15:12.760
defeated by the terrifying twists and turns of the market either. There is hope and we will be well
00:15:19.960
again in the future. As long as we remember who we are now, much of that hope rests on the shoulders
00:15:26.680
of people like you and me, the people in the right, just the regular people in America. I don't have a
00:15:32.900
lot of hope with people from Washington, DC. I have zero hope with the people in media. I have a lot
00:15:41.020
when I go and talk to my neighbors, the people who are living through this now more than ever,
00:15:45.660
we have a duty to be fiscally responsible because fiscal responsibility is going to be the life
00:15:51.060
preserver for the Republic. I've been talking to you for years and years now about gold line and you
00:15:56.300
know, the drill, not all portfolios are the same precious metals will make more sense for some
00:16:01.860
people less for others, but in no case that I'm aware of, does it make no sense? Uh, I just saw
00:16:09.820
something and, and this, I didn't even believe. So I, I'm not saying you believe this, but they
00:16:15.120
were, I read somewhere last night, where was it? They were talking about how the market is behaving.
00:16:20.860
And if the market continues down this way, that by 2022, I think they said gold would be at $11,000
00:16:29.100
if the markets all around the world just collapse and continue to go there.
00:16:34.340
That's insane. That's insane. I remember talking to Mark, Mark, Mark Albarian from gold line years
00:16:41.520
ago. And I said, geez, Mark, where could gold be? I said, could it be at 5,000? He said, Glenn,
00:16:48.720
this, this, this, this, this why I like these guys. This is the president of gold line at the time.
00:16:53.080
He said, I hope to God not. And I said, why it'd be a great, great thing for you. And he said,
00:16:59.380
do you know what our country would be like if gold was $5,000 an ounce? We're almost at two gang.
00:17:05.660
We're almost at two, please. If you're stuck at home, you got nothing to do. Call them, talk to
00:17:11.420
them. Hi, hi. Can I just talk to you for, I just want to talk to an adult. Call gold line now at 866
00:17:18.300
gold line, 866 gold line. They will help you discover what's right for you. This is where responsibility
00:17:25.100
kicks in. This is where hope begins gold line at 866 gold line, 866 gold line or gold line.com 10
00:17:33.500
seconds. Station ID. All right, we got a couple of guys on one from Dallas that just recovered from
00:17:49.920
the Corona virus. He's going to tell us what it was like. He said it wasn't so bad. We have another
00:17:55.000
guy on in about an hour from now who has just recovered and he was, he had already said goodbye
00:18:02.060
to his family. He was sure he was going to die and doctors were sure he was going to die. He convinced
00:18:07.940
them to, to take this new drug or it's actually a very, very old drug and just try it. The doctors
00:18:15.640
were like, well, I don't have anything to lose. And he took it and he is well within two days. He was
00:18:22.540
well. I don't know why the media is underplaying all of this. Um, but you know, I saw a latest poll
00:18:31.660
on the media and they are, they have a lower approval rating than the president. So that should
00:18:37.260
tell you something. All right. So I was thinking Stu about going to see Nancy Pelosi and, um, saying,
00:18:43.760
all right, I would recommend if we're going to go for it, a hundred billion dollars in funding to
00:18:49.420
improve celebrity in-home quarantine streaming studios, because I see them all singing together
00:18:56.100
and vlogging while they're in lockdown. And, oh my gosh, they, they are so cute. They just remind,
00:19:03.000
don't they, don't you think of Anne Frank? The minute you see those celebrities, you think,
00:19:06.860
oh my gosh, it's like Anne Frank, but they need ring lights and omnidirectional stereo microphones
00:19:13.040
and improve lens filters. Because let's be honest, sure. iPhone, you know, it's the cameras are great
00:19:18.560
and everything, but I don't want to see Madonna in a bathtub ever again. No, at least without really
00:19:24.180
good lenses, you know? So a congressional plan to provide celebrities with better vlogging equipment.
00:19:30.880
I think that's an, you know, that's in the nation's interest. Cash for DoorDash. I think we can all get
00:19:40.060
behind this. Yeah. Um, you know, massive increase with, you know, online food delivery. They're saying
00:19:47.020
that in some places like DoorDash, Grubhub, Uber Eats, 200% increase. Can we get some money in there
00:19:54.700
for Uber Eats as well? Uh, well, I think so. That's in, that's in Oregon. I think so. I think
00:20:01.140
we could do that. Uber Eats. This is a strip club that had to close and they thought, why not have
00:20:06.420
the strippers deliver food? It's called Uber Eats. I think it's brilliant myself. Uh, but you know,
00:20:12.720
with this kind of increase, uh, I think, well, what comes to mind right away, Stu, when I say,
00:20:19.460
you know, 200% increase, you know, for DoorDash and Grubhub, why would they need money? Say it with
00:20:24.940
me. Yeah. Climate change. Climate change. Oh yeah. Climate change. Yeah. All the pollution from all
00:20:31.280
that driving. So, uh, I think that we should, you know, have enough money in the stimulus package to
00:20:37.640
make sure that they all have electric cars or something like that. And to make sure the food
00:20:42.820
arrives hot. Um, you know, I was thinking that, you know, you could have a Tesla, they could drive a
00:20:48.120
Tesla, which is really fast and that, but that makes too much sense for Congress. So to speak
00:20:53.960
the language of Congress, I think Congress should insist and mandate that Wolf gas ranges are
00:21:00.020
installed in the backseat of every hybrid that could possibly be used for DoorDash, Grubhub or Uber
00:21:07.600
Eats. Because I think that's the kind of help we're looking for from Congress.
00:21:12.640
You're listening to Glenn Beck. I didn't even get to my animal therapy one yet. Uh, real estate
00:21:20.940

00:22:53.260
Ray unleashed. Pat. I don't know if you've seen the very, very, the very, very, uh, talented and
00:23:02.960
riveting Joe Biden in his latest, uh, uh, video from home. Uh, but I'd like to play it here. Here's,
00:23:11.100
here's Joe Biden in his, uh, in his little podcast room in his home.
00:23:15.380
I'm glad the president has finally activated the national guard. Now we need the armed forces
00:23:21.460
and the national guard to help with hospital capacity, supplies and logistics. We need to
00:23:26.740
activate the reserve core of doctors and nurses and beef up the number of responders dealing with
00:23:31.640
the crush, these crush of cases. And, uh, and in addition to that, uh, in addition to that,
00:23:39.240
we have to make sure that we, uh, we are in a position that we are. Well, let me, let me go to
00:23:46.220
the second thing. Okay. Yeah. Go to the second thing. The president must use the Fed's production
00:23:50.400
act. I mean, he is out of it. So bad. He's out of it. I mean, why would you let him do this live?
00:23:59.060
Why? Just claim it's live. Just tape it, tape it 50 times until you get one that's okay. And then air it.
00:24:05.220
Does he not have one single advisor with common sense? Seriously. That's so bad. He's just negligent.
00:24:14.200
Something, something happens with the prompter and he just cannot continue. And he's like,
00:24:19.660
time for medicine, mommy. I don't, I tend to think that the advisors that he has around him are
00:24:30.820
absolutely smart enough to be telling him this has got to be recorded. Let's do it recorded. And I
00:24:36.780
think he's fighting it off. No, no, come on now. I've been doing this for 40 years. It must be. I
00:24:41.020
think that's what it is. It's got to be too common. You know, it's, it's, you know, like we saw the,
00:24:44.860
uh, the advisor with him walking through the crowd when he was getting that argument, she obviously was
00:24:49.640
like, you got to get out of this. This is a terrible moment. Everyone's seeing this on camera.
00:24:53.260
And Joe's like, shh, like he's right. He thinks he still has it and he's trying to hold onto it.
00:24:59.900
And all of his advisors, I think probably know, but they can't stop him. Yeah. It's ugly. Okay.
00:25:06.060
So wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. What do you think that maybe his
00:25:11.580
advisor is Andrew Cuomo? Just saying Andrew Cuomo. Why? I'm convinced that Andrew Cuomo is,
00:25:21.060
wants to be the president. I mean, I got the right Cuomo, right? Yes. Not the TV Cuomo. Sorry,
00:25:28.520
not Fredo. Mario who's dead. The governor of New York. Yeah, I'm talking about the governor.
00:25:32.360
I think he, I think that's, everybody's going to say, look, he's completely out of control.
00:25:38.340
And Cuomo's going to come through this because he's already wearing the tight fitting, you know,
00:25:43.660
governor t-shirt. Like I'm, I'm in the war room right now. Look at me. I'm doing all these things.
00:25:49.240
I was just out building some houses for the homeless and decided to come in here and do
00:25:53.980
this too. I mean, he's, I think he's horrible, but he's better than Joe Biden. And I keep thinking
00:26:01.880
this, the guy who's going to come in at the end. That's an interesting one because I think
00:26:07.020
objectively, the only reason people think Cuomo is doing a good job is because he's doing a better
00:26:12.220
job than de Blasio, who's a complete disaster. But I mean, this is there, he's in the middle
00:26:17.580
of overseeing the biggest disaster of this entire crisis. Yeah. And he was the one saying,
00:26:26.360
we're not going to shut it down. That's crazy. That's not going to happen. And two days later,
00:26:29.440
shut it down. I don't see why anyone thinks he's doing a competent job here.
00:26:34.320
Yeah. He told us he can, because he can blame the president. Although he's not doing that.
00:26:40.540
No, he's praising the president, which is, I don't know. The whole thing's really weird
00:26:45.300
because he, he made a big deal out of the fact that he was talking to his business buddy and his
00:26:51.400
business buddy was all freaked out that the rumor was he was going to shut down New York. Oh no,
00:26:56.740
we're not going to do that. Like you said. And then they did it. Wait, you just bragged about
00:27:02.500
the fact you're not going to do it. Now you've done it. And your numbers have increased in about
00:27:08.440
a week and a half from around a thousand to 23,000. So about half the cases in the country.
00:27:14.100
Yeah. It's bad. It's really bad in New York. It's bad. Uh, you know, let me, let me ask you this.
00:27:18.900
Have you guys seen, um, go to shoot, where was that? Um, here it is. Go to the website. Do you have
00:27:28.300
your, do you have your iPad with you or anything? I don't Pat go to COVID act now.org COVID act
00:27:35.700
now.org. This is, uh, why your state must act now. And it's giving you a prediction or not a
00:27:46.160
prediction. It's a, a model, a predictive model to see the projections for your state on when your
00:27:53.840
healthcare, you know, uh, system is going to be overwhelmed. And if you go to New York, let me just
00:28:00.180
go to New York. You click on that. You will see that with limited action, hospitals are expected to
00:28:09.100
peak at about April 12th. And we are just barely there. I mean, it's almost a straight line up from
00:28:18.520
April 1st until the 12th, just overwhelming the hospital, but they have, they, are they doing social
00:28:25.760
distancing and they just closed everybody in, right? Yeah. They want you full shutdown. So yeah.
00:28:32.800
Right. So they peak at around April 20th. Now here's the interesting part. Go to Texas.
00:28:39.040
If you go to Texas where we're at and really nothing seems to be happening here. Um, you are
00:28:45.780
peaking a two weeks later, April 28th. But if you look down at the, the number of dead with no action
00:28:54.480
in just Texas, they say estimated deaths, 583,000 three months of social distancing, 430,000
00:29:03.820
three months of shelter in place, 5,000 yet. Now where are they getting these numbers? Three months of
00:29:11.780
social distancing, 430,000. Where else are we seeing that kind of death? Yeah. And you know,
00:29:17.780
where, cause you could say we're early on in this process. Obviously we've seen places like Italy
00:29:23.060
that have blown up, but not like this you've seen, but like, not like that we see, like, for example,
00:29:27.760
you could project New York turning into a real mega disaster right now, although those numbers seem
00:29:33.340
completely ridiculous to me. But the other thing is we've seen Washington, uh, have a real,
00:29:40.720
the early big blow up and then not turn into a mega disaster, right? It seems to have recovered a
00:29:48.020
little bit. Now they did, it was sort of cordoned off in that one nursing home at the beginning. So
00:29:52.500
maybe that was, that's the way out of it. But this is what I find so interesting about this and why
00:29:58.080
the only reason I have any hope that this could potentially have some sort of like logical
00:30:05.100
resolution is that it's unlike a global warming where they say, if we don't act now, everything's
00:30:12.860
going to go terrible. And every year that goes by where it's not terrible, they just say it's more
00:30:17.400
years down the road. It's, it's 10 years from now. It's always 10 years from now. This is like two
00:30:21.900
weeks, three weeks. Yeah. So like, we'll know really soon. Yeah, we can. Well, you should know
00:30:27.300
what's the date today? Uh, the date today is March 24th, March 24th. Okay. So in three days
00:30:35.560
in New York, if they took no action in three days, the hospitals should be overloaded, uh, in three
00:30:45.660
months of social distancing, the hospitals should be overloaded by April 3rd. So, you know, they didn't
00:30:54.900
do the three months of shelter in place. So it's gotta be by April 7th, which is what next Tuesday,
00:31:01.500
Wednesday. And if that growth is as extreme as they say, over the next few weeks, we're going to have
00:31:08.920
multiple examples of completely out of control situations. If we don't have that, uh, then
00:31:16.520
we have to realize that somewhere in their projections, it's just not right. Um, and you
00:31:23.240
know, that is going to, I think, change the way that we handle this. Yeah. We have 786 people in
00:31:28.260
Texas with the virus right now. 786. Look at this. No action in the state of New York. This is New York
00:31:36.420
City where everyone's living on top of each other. Um, no action estimated death, 392,000, three months
00:31:44.840
of social distancing, 292. Now go back to Texas. Let's look at Texas. Uh, three months of social
00:31:53.800
distancing is 430,000 deaths. No action 583. That's not possible. It's just not possible. That makes
00:32:04.540
no sense whatsoever. And the CDC's estimates of doing nothing. The high end number they came up
00:32:09.800
with was 2.2 million dead. So this is way more than this. We're talking about two States. We're
00:32:15.260
already at a million, right? I mean, if you added up all these States, it would be much, much higher
00:32:19.900
than what the CDC believed, uh, was possible. And I believe the, the London, uh, university that has
00:32:25.320
been, you know, giving out a lot of the scarier sort of models, you know, I don't know. It doesn't
00:32:30.520
seem, I don't know. Pat, do you feel that? I, I, I, I go back and forth on this a lot,
00:32:35.320
admittedly, but like, it's, I know I never get to this situation, but you listen to some of these
00:32:41.800
experts and they're like so confident and you, you could tell the difference between an Al Gore
00:32:46.540
and these guys, these guys are saying like, look in two weeks, we're going to wish we completely shut
00:32:52.660
off society. Okay. Al Gore is like in 40 years, there's going to be like, how can you can't even
00:32:58.800
judge those things? I'll be cannibal in 38 years. And then 30 years pass. Well, that's because of
00:33:06.100
some of the actions I took, it's going to be another six years and they just keep pushing it
00:33:12.360
back. Exactly. But this is like, you can't do it. It's too immediate. There we're going to be,
00:33:17.640
you know, Gavin Newsom said in eight weeks, 26 million people just in California are going to
00:33:24.160
have this. There's no way that's going to happen. If that happens, we're going to, we're going to be
00:33:27.760
happy to shut down society, right? Yes. You're not going to have an argument. This is why I think
00:33:31.960
the president said yesterday, it's not going to be months. It's not going to be months. I don't
00:33:38.680
think he bought these projections from the beginning. I really don't. I don't either. I
00:33:43.480
think, but he, but he was surrounded by a bunch of people who are experts. You know, he's just
00:33:49.040
thinking he's the doctor himself. Nope. Nope. I don't think he bought into this at all. And, uh,
00:33:55.400
but all of the experts said, Mr. President, and now he's seeing, well, wait a minute. He's seeing
00:34:01.300
numbers like this and going, well, hang on just a sec. Where else are we seeing this? I mean,
00:34:05.600
Mexico, what's happening to Mexico, Mexico. They're still there. They're practically having
00:34:11.760
a lick your face marathon in, in Mexico right now. And, and it's not overrunning in Mexico. Now it may
00:34:19.740
come yet, but I think this is why the president said yesterday, it's not going to be months.
00:34:24.500
He's betting on his gut. It's not going to be months and, but we'll reevaluate. Maybe it is.
00:34:30.680
And he's looking to next week. And if these numbers in New York and California aren't starting to pile
00:34:36.140
up as they were predicted, I think he's going to start taking the economy and opening it up because
00:34:42.720
I have news for you as a guy who's in the target range, Pat, you're in the target range,
00:34:47.780
you know, in, in, in Italy, they're saying, if you're 60, don't even bother coming into the
00:34:52.420
hospital. We can't save you. Um, we're too overrun. Well, I got news for you. If it is my children
00:34:58.740
have an America left and I have to go in and work with a bunch of 60 year olds, uh, just to keep this
00:35:07.460
economy going and we're working while they're sheltered in place, I'll do it. I mean, I'd rather
00:35:13.820
die than have the nation die for my children. Absolutely. And I think the one unacceptable
00:35:20.820
variable in all of this to Americans is if Netflix slows down their streaming speeds. If that happens,
00:35:27.220
all bets are off. They're already saying it. We are. All bets are off. They're already saying it.
00:35:31.520
Oh, wait, wait, don't panic. Let's watch those numbers. When we see those speeds start to come
00:35:37.980
down, then we'll let you know. Guys, projections are already saying they're going to go to standard
00:35:43.340
definition. By the way, I just have to point out, did you hear that, uh, uh, Joe Biden said,
00:35:51.320
uh, that, that he just got high speed internet in his, in his house. They put in some new high
00:35:57.840
speed internet so I can, uh, I can have my studio in my house. Oh, wow. Joe high speed internet.
00:36:06.260
Hmm. Wow. That's a, that's a, that's a big deal. Good for you. All right. Uh, uh, when cyber
00:36:15.440
protection, uh, when the cyber protection, uh, clan is away, the cyber criminals will play as your
00:36:23.440
hold up in your bunker or your home during the perilous days ahead, you should be warned that you
00:36:28.660
could be inundated with fake products, phony stock deals and fabricated emails and texts and social
00:36:35.640
media posts designed to play off the fears that you have of Corona virus. The sec recently issued
00:36:42.260
an alert to Warren of investment schemes that are pitching the products or services that purport to
00:36:47.480
help stop the outbreak. There isn't a level in which they will not stoop to. And on top of that,
00:36:53.780
it's tax season, cyber criminals and identity thieves are smart. They get smarter all the time.
00:37:00.080
They learn how to play off of people. Please be careful. Do not become a victim. Now nobody can
00:37:06.040
prevent all of this stuff from happening or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but

00:37:35.300
Well, they've now they've put a new high speed line into my home and they've converted a recreation room
00:37:54.380
into a television studio. I'm, I'm quoting Joe Biden. There's so much wrong with that sentence.
00:38:02.080
They put a new high speed line into my home. So what was the dial up before dial up? I don't know.
00:38:12.180
I'd been dialing. I've been using that still. I got my net zero account all fired up. It's this new
00:38:20.180
high speed line they can put in and they converted a recreation room. They haven't called it a rec room
00:38:28.980
since 1968. And even in 1968, they called it a rec room, not a recreation room, right? No, I know
00:38:36.180
recreation room was before it got hip before, you know, before the hipsters stood in and went, you
00:38:42.180
know, you know, pops, uh, let's just call that a rec room. I mean, I could just, it doesn't, it,
00:38:48.460
it just smells of that fake wood paneling. Yeah. Just that whole sentence just has fake wood paneling
00:38:55.500
all around it. And they converted my recreation room into a television studio. Oh, the high tech
00:39:04.240
things we can do now. I mean, all he has to do is just stop improv-ing, stop doing things that are
00:39:13.540
live. This is the perfect circumstance. I know, obviously it's a terrible thing for the nation,
00:39:19.780
but for the Joe Biden campaign, could there be a better circumstance? No one can, he can't be seen
00:39:25.220
in public. You, how do you have gaffes? You're, you have a, you're in your house recording videos.
00:39:31.000
Just don't screw up. It's insane. In my rec room. He, you know what? This is going to pay off to
00:39:37.500
Trump's, uh, uh, advantage because he is, it's like a fireside chat every day at five o'clock when
00:39:45.820
he's giving his press conferences. You're listening to Glenn Beck.
00:39:59.880
Well, hello America and welcome to the program coming up. We've got two people that have had
00:40:08.040
the Corona virus. Both are past it. Both have a different feel on, uh, what it was like.
00:40:16.020
And one of them claims that the cure was this drug that people with lupus or people with bad,
00:40:24.860
bad rheumatoid arthritis have been taking for years and years and years. The president touted it last
00:40:29.980
week. He had already said goodbye to his family and the doctors say, well, let's just give it a whirl.
00:40:35.480
We're going to talk to both of these guys in just a moment. Stand by.
00:40:47.500
Relief factor. If you're in pain, um, there is a solution for you.
00:40:53.480
Pain is caused a lot of it by inflammation in the body. And they're saying, you know, ibuprofen,
00:40:58.700
you shouldn't take ibuprofen with this. Have you heard that with Corona virus, they're saying,
00:41:02.940
yeah, I don't think that's it's you have to know. Yeah. It looks like that's not really true. Um,
00:41:09.540
but, uh, there are some, there's some evidence, there's some studies that are on the small side
00:41:14.880
that kind of indicate it could be an issue. Okay. All right. So inflammation is a real problem and a
00:41:21.500
lot of people will just take ibuprofen and, uh, and hope that it goes away. I've, I'll tell you,
00:41:26.320
I could take, you know, and the doctor said, well, I'm going to, I don't know if you can handle this.
00:41:30.680
Uh, ibuprofen 800. Oh, shut up. Ibuprofen 800. Anyway, you want to reduce your inflammation

So Hunter Howard tested positive for coronavirus. He was, he's a 50-year-old,
00:42:50.920
old man. He's a guy who lives in Dallas. He came home from Aspen early in the month and he got a
00:42:59.320
low-grade fever, turned into a dry cough, led to headaches, all of the signs, and he was diagnosed
00:43:06.020
with coronavirus. We go to Hunter now. Hi, Hunter. How are you?
00:43:10.460
I'm doing great, Glenn. Feeling much better. Thank you very much.
00:43:14.200
I'm glad to hear it. So are you a relatively healthy guy? You,
00:43:18.060
you were out skiing and you don't have any real underlying health problems, right?
00:43:23.580
That's exactly right. I didn't have any, um, pulmonary issues. I don't have any immune suppression
00:43:27.920
issues. So, you know, I had about five days of, you know, it, it was a very, very bad flu. Um, but it
00:43:35.580
was, you know, it kept me down. And if I didn't know what the symptoms were to be looking for them,
00:43:40.700
to understand kind of what the restriction to my lungs and the difficulty breathing, you know,
00:43:44.540
I would have thought it was the flu, but, you know, because of the timing of it, I realized
00:43:48.500
with the difficulty breathing that, uh, there was something a lot different going on. Um,
00:43:52.900
the really scariest part was the unknown, the unknown of how much worse it might get at the
00:43:57.280
end of the day, it wasn't that bad. But as my breathing got worse, as the doctor said,
00:44:01.920
stay away from the hospital, unless you need ICU breathing support, uh, then we'll help you.
00:44:06.520
And so then just, you know, no, just trying to think through, okay, when is, when is that mark
00:44:11.320
going to happen? We're going to need some more support from here, uh, from an ICU ventilator.
00:44:16.200
Yeah. And did they give you, did they give you any, did they give you any indication on,
00:44:21.040
yeah, here's when you need that breathing apparatus or did they just trust that you would know?
00:44:27.640
I don't think they knew to be honest with you. You know, I think that they just knew that they
00:44:31.700
didn't have the, um, the ventilators or the beds to kind of support people coming in.
00:44:35.920
And then I was really supposed to know on when I needed that. And so
00:44:39.480
really zero guidelines to what that point might be. And so, you know, at one point I woke up and
00:44:45.380
I was just hurt my lungs working. Like it was like a pit, my lungs were paper bags, just
00:44:49.380
crackling and bubbling as, uh, they were just, you know, there's a lot of effort to, to breathe.
00:44:54.160
But, um, then I, frankly, for me, I was told when the doctors take 1600 milligrams of Tylenol,
00:44:59.620
um, you know, not ibuprofen. And I took, like I said, 2000 around. So I took that and to cut the
00:45:05.280
fever and I've been really doing better every day since then. So that was about, uh, that was
00:45:09.760
last Saturday and it's been, um, you're kind of uphill or a downhill. Yeah.
00:45:13.900
So how, how long did you have it? Uh, first take me through the, what's the first sign and
00:45:22.180
when did you go, Holy crap, I might have coronavirus.
00:45:25.620
It was about three or four days. I'm not sure exactly when I caught it in Aspen, but I think
00:45:29.440
it was a breeding ground in Aspen that weekend, unfortunately. And so it was about three or four
00:45:33.300
days before I started to get the low grade fever and the headaches. And then that was
00:45:37.580
then day five was kind of really intensifying. Uh, um, the fever got really bad. The, um,
00:45:46.980
fever got bad. The, uh, the body aches got really bad. Uh, and I knew something else was going on.
00:45:52.520
That's when I got really the restricted breathing. There's like a strap around my chest. It was just
00:45:56.560
making it difficult to breathe. And so that was about three or four days of the intense, uh,
00:46:01.120
difficulties. And then it, uh, the fever cut inside. I feel very lucky though. You know,
00:46:05.560
everything I'm reading, I'm, I'm in healthcare world. And so I have a telemedicine company.
00:46:09.780
And so I had access to physicians and people to help me out to help. But even then, you know,
00:46:15.200
they didn't know either. We're, we're learning day by day on this.
00:46:22.080
Exactly. And so we've been providing a lot of support to people on to understand this.
00:46:27.860
Yeah, this is, I don't think most people understand when, you know, I I've been saying
00:46:32.500
recently to talk about redesigning the entire healthcare system now is like saying we've got
00:46:38.060
to redesign the entire horse and buggy industry in 1920. It's, it's over. Uh, and just telemedicine
00:46:46.460
and the way things are going to change, it's going to relieve so much. Uh, and this is really
00:46:53.020
the time where telemedicine can really, uh, show off and you could accelerate that quickly because
00:46:58.640
it's so good. You're exactly right about that. There's a couple of pain points that we saw a
00:47:03.420
couple of years ago about just getting access to the right type of specialist. 88% of the country
00:47:07.860
is medically underserved for basic care, let alone access to specialists. So that's what we've been
00:47:11.980
focusing on. And then, you know, I'd like to give a lot of credit to CMS and the administration
00:47:15.760
right now. They have lowered a lot of the restrictions around telemedicine over the
00:47:20.160
past couple of weeks where they had very strict guidelines on state by state regulations, state
00:47:25.640
licenses, uh, certain things you can and can't do. And they said in the short term, we're going to
00:47:30.500
drop all of those and we're going to allow people to get access to the care that they need, uh, you
00:47:35.500
know, during this process. And we're not going to worry about regulations that might've been
00:47:38.960
burdensome. So, you know, a lot of credit goes to the administration, CMS and, um, you know,
00:47:44.580
really kind of our federal people who are kind of just dropping those to make sure people get in
00:47:49.840
the care that they need. It's been amazing how quickly they're moving. We're talking to Hunter
00:47:54.460
Howard. He's a Dallas resident, uh, with confirmed, uh, COVID-19. So when you were diagnosed, did you go
00:48:01.560
to the hospital or how did they diagnose you? Yeah. So I was lucky to understand how the system works a
00:48:07.980
little bit. And when I started learning about my symptoms, uh, there was nothing set up in town. In fact,
00:48:12.980
Dallas at that point only had 42 testing units per day to give out. And they told me, we're only
00:48:17.800
going to give you one of these testing units. Um, if you are needing, you know, ventilator support
00:48:22.840
in an ICU right now, that was on Thursday or Friday. And then over the weekend, um, Baylor Scott
00:48:29.020
and Wine had set up a, um, the hospital system had set up a mobile unit, uh, in Dallas. And so by then
00:48:35.420
they had more testing units that were coming into town. So I was able to get access to those units and get
00:48:41.940
referred. So it was referred by my physician, uh, into that system. It was really about 20 minutes
00:48:46.820
and just, you know, there are four nurses out there. I want to give my absolute hats off to our,
00:48:52.660
our first line of the nurses and healthcare responders who are putting themselves in harm's
00:48:57.460
way. So they were just so kind and, and, and just really, it was about 15, 20 minutes to go through
00:49:03.740
there. It was a, a, about a three inch long, uh, swab that they kind of, uh, stuck into my nasal
00:49:11.020
cavity, which it felt like they're trying to swab. To be honest with you, it was, and it was, um,
00:49:16.880
it was what needed to be done. And I found that a day later by my doctor. And then I got a call by
00:49:21.820
Dallas County health and got a caseworker assigned to me. And it was really amazing how quickly, uh,
00:49:27.500
our community stepped up to be organized around this. So if you had to do it all over again,
00:49:41.340
You know, the most important thing is lacking right now. It's just kind of access to the beds,
00:49:45.660
the ventilators, the masks and things like that. So I was on a call last night with Dallas business
00:49:49.720
leaders. And what we're talking about is moving from a population mitigation strategy to a case-based
00:49:55.700
intervention strategy. What I mean by that is, um, in the short term, as we're learning,
00:50:01.480
you know, about the, this incredible curve of how many people are getting sick so rapidly and how
00:50:06.540
easy, how contagious this is, we're having to employ population mitigation strategies. They're
00:50:12.120
really, you know, very, very severe, but that's a necessary strategy just to control the, um, community
00:50:18.240
transition, uh, you know, transmissions. But what we're trying to do, we're talking about, okay,
00:50:22.940
is instead of it being everything being guided by the, uh, the healthcare leaders who are just
00:50:28.140
looking at, um, the number of cases that are being trans, um, you know, transmitted and just
00:50:33.920
looking at those numbers, what do we, what can we do in Dallas to make sure that we're caring for
00:50:38.560
every man, woman, and child? And so that's really kind of, so you shift from what you get in control
00:50:42.900
of the transmissions and the community, instead of only having a population mitigation strategy,
00:50:47.720
what do we have to do to build more hospital beds? What do we have to do to get more ventilators in
00:50:51.760
town? What do we have to do to get more tests in town? And so we're actually a pretty amazing group
00:50:56.080
of, um, kind of business leaders in Dallas coming together saying, what does the city need to support
00:51:01.080
that? What do we need to do, um, to help you, you know, do you need locations, do you need beds,
00:51:07.840
do you need rooms? Uh, do you need, you know, do we need to convert some more businesses to
00:51:12.340
converting ventilators? And so we're working with the city of Dallas and the state of Texas and
00:51:16.760
figuring out how can we support the community so that we can start moving from, you know,
00:51:20.880
transition from just as population mitigation strategies to, um, shifting into a case-based
00:51:26.860
intervention. Once we know that we've got a control over, um, that we can put a, you know,
00:51:32.240
every single person that gets sick in a bed, in a ventilator that's needed, you know, things like
00:51:36.380
that. And that's some of this, the conversations that the business leaders in Dallas are hoping we
00:51:40.680
can kind of move towards a combination of the population mitigation. And we've got this,
00:51:46.340
Dallas has got this, they've got our support from the business leaders and we're going to give
00:51:49.560
them whatever they need to make sure that we can control this, um, you know, medically.
00:51:55.240
So Hunter, were you a believer in this was as bad as they say it was when you went up to Vail?
00:52:04.340
No, I'll be honest with you. I, um, going for a friend's 50th birthday. And, uh, at that point,
00:52:11.220
there's a little bit of information that was coming out about, about it, but it was still,
00:52:14.880
you know, really mostly was happening over in Italy and China at that point. And I, you know,
00:52:20.200
I had it and I, I had a kid, um, a mask that had an led lighting on it. I gave a video with my
00:52:29.000
friends of me in the air and the airplane with a led, uh, lit, um, mask. And we're kind of making
00:52:35.800
a joke out of it at that point. And we knew it was serious. We knew things were happening other
00:52:39.160
places. Um, but it didn't, not you, well, I had the case, I had the mask, but it was,
00:52:46.440
we were, we didn't realize how serious it was going to get this quickly.
00:52:50.440
Yeah. That's what I meant. You didn't think it would happen to you. Um, the, um, uh, are you
00:52:57.180
convinced that we are going to see these astronomical numbers that the CDC is talking about now?
00:53:09.160
Uh, so that really comes into the population mitigation strategies and, you know, in certain
00:53:14.500
cities it's out there and we're working on two week trailing indicators, right. With the testing.
00:53:20.020
And so, uh, so what we're seeing today with the numbers or what happened probably got 10 days ago.
00:53:26.160
So the numbers are, are growing up and, you know, more importantly right now is, you know, what are
00:53:32.740
the, you know, how is the chloroquine working? So I have friends, uh, in the New York city healthcare
00:53:37.220
system. And from what I'm hearing anecdotally, uh, it is working miraculously well. So we have a guy
00:53:45.560
coming on in, in 10 minutes and he says, I mean, he said goodbye to his family, everything that doctors
00:53:51.460
gave him the hydrochloroquine. Uh, and he said two days later, he's fully back. Um, and he credits
00:53:58.980
that, but the press and everyone, no one is willing to say that this is even a possibility at this point.
00:54:07.040
And I don't understand why this, this is an old drug, you know, as long as it's under supervision,
00:54:13.540
uh, and you know, we're, we're doing it in the right way with doctor supervision. I don't
00:54:19.760
understand why more people in the press aren't excited about the possibility of this drug.
00:54:25.720
Glenn, I'm hearing from the healthcare workers in New York city to, you know, from the ER that it's
00:54:31.440
working, absolutely working right now. And so it's still a little bit anecdotal, anecdotal versus
00:54:36.640
evidence-based. We don't have a lot of the data around it. Um, but it's, it's working is what I'm
00:54:42.160
hearing from frontline, um, healthcare providers that are in that stuff day and night. We should
00:54:49.460
be making that stuff day and night. All right. Thank you so much, Hunter. I'm, I'm glad that you're
00:54:54.060
feeling better and thanks for your service to the community. I appreciate it. Howard, uh, Howard
00:54:58.580
Hunter, uh, the first guy in Dallas to test positive for Corona virus on the mend now. I'm
00:55:06.140
sorry, Hunter Howard. I don't, Hunter needs to change the name. It should be Howard Hunter,
00:55:11.920
not Hunter Howard. We'll get back on the phone with him and let him know his name should change.
00:55:15.560
Yeah. Let him know. He's got to change his, got to change his name. All right. Um, rough greens.
00:55:20.060
This is what I feed my dog. Well, no, I don't feed my dog this. I put this in my dog's food. It's not
00:55:25.320
a dog food. I just sprinkle this on top of it and it's like dog crack. I mean, he gets up in the
00:55:31.460
morning and he runs to the ball. I say, yeah, I want to eat. And he just runs to the bowl. I mean,
00:55:38.180
it's like a, it's like a herd of wild horses running to his bowl. If your dog is not eating,
00:55:45.400
is a finicky eater, or you just don't think your dog is getting the nutrition that they need to
00:55:51.500
have. This isn't to help your dog eat. This is to help your dog live a really strong life. It's a
00:55:58.940
supplement that you put in your dog's food. It has massive amounts of vitamins, minerals, digestive
00:56:03.700
enzymes, probiotics, even omega oils and antioxidants. My dog has changed. Uno is a different dog.
00:56:10.540
You want to take care of your dog, give him the right stuff. You can even go down. I shouldn't
00:56:15.760
recommend this because I don't know what I'm talking about. Talk to your vet, but I think you
00:56:19.880
could probably even go down in dog food, uh, and buy something that's a little cheaper. If you're
00:56:24.680
trying to stay, save money and buy rough greens, because I brought rough greens to my vet and they
00:56:30.160
were like, Oh, this stuff's fantastic. Yes. Give your dog a 14 day jumpstart challenge. Do it for 1495.

00:56:56.520
Okay. What's her name? All right. Let me go to Christy online with us now. Hi, Christy. Welcome.
00:57:17.100
Hi, Glenn. Hi. Where are you a nurse? I am an administrator for a home health agency in Boise,
00:57:25.660
Idaho. Okay, good. So I'm calling, I'm a long time listener and I actually was listening to you
00:57:34.400
when you first started talking about this back late January, early February. And I was doing a class
00:57:40.560
on epidemiology and I had happened to see some stuff coming out of China and between you and what I saw,
00:57:48.140
I was like, this is not good. And we had been seeing, already actually seeing some patients with
00:57:55.720
this respiratory thing that we were going, what is it? We didn't know what it was.
00:58:01.500
Um, so there's a lot of people in our area that are thinking, you know, it's been here,
00:58:07.200
um, you know, in that timeframe that China wasn't being honest with us.
00:58:12.940
Right. And it got here pretty quick, which means it was our, before we ever started doing anything,
00:58:19.520
it was on the move. Uh, and I think your frustration and some of the frustration with all these numbers
00:58:26.260
that we're seeing and feeling is that we're, we're not getting the test back quickly enough.
00:58:34.100
So I've had, uh, employees, I've had patients that are being tested and it's taken a week for us to get
00:58:40.240
the actual test results back. So by the time we do get the test results and they're making
00:58:45.880
the numbers on the television, it's a week later. So the numbers you're seeing today
00:58:50.440
versus what you're going to see next week are delayed and it, and it's very frustrating.
00:58:58.180
And then you compound that with being an administrator. I can't get to the protective
00:59:04.100
equipment I need for my clinician. So they're out there exposed. They're exposing their families.
00:59:10.520
They're exposing themselves. They're trying to take care of patients. Um, we're basically
00:59:15.300
beg, borrowing and stealing, not stealing, but begging from people to please give us stuff.
00:59:25.060
What do you need, Christy? Uh, the masks. Yeah, we need, we need the mask. We need the gowns. We need,
00:59:33.020
um, we, we need, we need hand sanitizer. I, we had a drive. We went, I went on a couple of local
00:59:39.780
stations this last weekend and just said, guys, if you're sitting at home, we're not.
00:59:44.720
If you have a stash of this stuff, will you please just drop some off? Because right now I feel
00:59:50.040
like a general that is sending my troops out with no guns and no equipment. And that's terrifying to
00:59:59.140
me. There's families behind those people. And if they start dropping like flies and who's going to
01:00:05.040
take care of the sick. So, um, we keep being told we're getting the equipment that we need,
01:00:13.600
that there's a stockpile, but we haven't seen it. So I don't know. We're starting to see the cases
01:00:19.800
and I just don't know. What's the, what's the name of your hospital? Uh, I'm not with the hospital.
01:00:26.360
We're with a private independent agency, uh, in Boise. But we've got multiple hospital systems.
01:00:35.280
God bless you. Thank you so much for what you're doing. Thank you for calling in. If you don't
01:00:40.600
mind, Christy, I'd like to keep you on the line for a second. If you could talk to one of our
01:00:43.780
producers, um, I'd just like to get some information, uh, from you. We'll call you back.
01:00:48.680
Thank you so much. Now, a guy who says I had already said goodbye to my family. I was dying
01:00:56.320
and I got this old timey medicine and it worked. He's on with us next.
01:01:18.680
All right. Let me talk to you a little bit about, uh, our sponsor when, when cyber protections
01:01:22.840
away, the criminals and cyber criminals will play and they are playing. Now you're hold up in your
01:01:28.940
home, uh, and you should be warned. You're probably going to be inundated with fake products, phony
01:01:35.040
stock deals, fake emails, texts, social media posts, all of this playing off your fears for the
01:01:41.680
coronavirus. The sec recently issued an alert to warn of investment schemes that are pitching
01:01:46.680
products or services that purport to help stop the outbreak really isn't a level to which they
01:01:51.840
won't stoop. And on top of all that, it's tax season. So cyber criminals are out there. Nobody
01:01:58.160
can stop all of it, but I'll tell you the people that are really out there that are doing it and
01:02:04.040
really have the best, um, image in the business and the best track record in the business is
01:02:10.080

01:02:52.000
is, uh, with us. He is a guy who is a vice president of a company that makes cooking equipment,
01:02:58.360
uh, for high-end restaurants in LA and around the world. And he was up in New York at a conference
01:03:04.100
and he contracted COVID-19. His story is pretty amazing. Diagnosed with pneumonia and coronavirus,
01:03:13.880
he was admitted into the ICU, put on oxygen, uh, and he made no improvements after a week.
01:03:21.840
Doctors told him there wasn't anything else he can do. He started to tell his family goodbye
01:03:25.740
until there was a friend that called and said there's a potential cure for coronavirus and doctors
01:03:33.320
gave it, uh, to him. We welcome, uh, Rio on the phone with us now. Hi, Rio. How are you feeling?
01:03:42.420
That's, uh, uh, so you're, you're still in the hospital.
01:03:55.720
Okay. Um, so tell me when you started feeling this way, Rio, what were the first signs?
01:04:03.800
Oh, uh, was, uh, driving home and just felt, uh, really tired and washed out. It'd been, uh,
01:04:11.500
three weeks of travel, so I wasn't surprised. Went home, thought I was going to take a nap and
01:04:15.940
at three o'clock in the afternoon and, uh, wound up, uh, sleeping until about three o'clock in the
01:04:20.760
morning. Uh, when I woke up, I had a fever and a headache and, uh, said, all right, well,
01:04:28.440
I'm in bed for a couple of days now. So I, uh, took my aspirin or Tylenol and, uh, it just
01:04:35.720
continued for about five days. Uh, started developing a back pain and a cough and, uh, knew something
01:04:43.900
wasn't right. So, uh, made phone calls to hospitals and urgent cares and doctors and
01:04:49.600
no one, uh, everybody pretty much said, you need to stay home and don't come here because we don't
01:04:54.840
want to infect other people. Um, wasn't able to get a test and found out that a hospital near me
01:05:00.740
was, uh, providing the test. So drove to the hospital and, uh, was going to go online underneath
01:05:07.580
the tent to, uh, take my test, but, uh, I was sweating profusely and about passed out. They
01:05:12.680
grabbed me and took me in the ER. Um, and, uh, I've been here since, uh, you know, things progressed
01:05:21.920
and, uh, got to the point where breathing was very tough and getting labored, uh, speaking got very
01:05:28.220
tough. And, uh, on Friday, uh, it just got to the point where, you know, in my mind's eye, I wasn't
01:05:34.980
going to make it till Saturday morning. I just was, uh, I was tired of as nine days of, uh, fever
01:05:41.020
ranging from anywhere from a hundred degrees to 102. And, uh, on that day, I just decided to call
01:05:50.960
some friends and family and kind of say my goodbyes. Uh, when I reached out to a friend in
01:05:56.740
the keys and spoke to him, he, uh, didn't want to hear anything about it. And he started reaching out
01:06:04.160
to a, uh, a big group of friends of ours and, uh, everybody started chiming in and, uh, uh, a very
01:06:10.820
good friend of mine, uh, texted me and said, Hey, you need to try this, uh, medicine. I'd never heard
01:06:17.040
of it. Didn't, uh, didn't know it existed. And, uh, was that's the high, that's the hydroxychloroquine.
01:06:24.120
It is, it is the hydroxychloroquine. Yes. And so your friend turned you on to it. Go ahead.
01:06:30.480
He did. And, uh, I mentioned to the nurse who then mentioned it to the doctor, uh, doctor came
01:06:36.940
in and, uh, said it wasn't something he could prescribe, uh, but put me in touch with the
01:06:42.260
infectious disease doctor who listened to my story and, uh, authorized the use. Um, the nurse
01:06:49.540
came in 30 minutes later, gave it to me. Uh, and during that night, I had a couple of complications
01:06:54.800
that were unrelated to the medicine, but more to do with the virus. And, uh, when I woke
01:07:00.700
up at, uh, exactly four 45 in the morning, uh, I woke up and realized, uh, I no longer
01:07:06.380
had a fever. Uh, my back pain had, uh, subsided and, uh, I was feeling good. You know, it's
01:07:13.680
feeling like I was ready to go out in the boat. Uh, call the nurse. The doc, the doctors
01:07:19.840
are saying that this isn't necessarily from the hydroxychloroquine, but I mean, what else
01:07:29.740
Well, no, they're saying, they said that the complications I had the night before weren't
01:07:34.700
the heart. My heart was pounding out of my chest. Um, they said that that was probably
01:07:40.240
more about the progression from the virus and maybe a little case of anxiety is like, you
01:07:45.940
know, like I said, I thought I was facing into my life. Um, but they came in, they got
01:07:50.580
me calmed down, gave me some, uh, Benadryl and something else to help me go to sleep.
01:07:56.160
And, uh, when I woke up, I was, uh, I mean, I know it sounds crazy, but I was feeling absolutely
01:08:01.600
perfect, uh, to the point that, uh, I called the nurses in, they came in, uh, and all my vitals
01:08:08.880
were back to normal. I no longer had the fever that I had for the nine days previous and
01:08:14.200
haven't had, I haven't had a, uh, temperature ever since. Um, I feel great. Uh, only thing
01:08:20.880
I had was a lingering headache. Uh, but that was a small, small price to pay.
01:08:27.700
So we got this story, uh, from a reporter, Haley Winslow. Um, and, uh, she's the one that,
01:08:35.000
that hooked us up with you. Um, and she said, I'm just glad this story is getting out there.
01:08:40.460
Hopefully it can save millions of lives. Um, Haley, uh, I don't think understands either
01:08:46.980
why this story is not everywhere. Instead, the press is focusing on some people that,
01:08:52.280
that drank some, uh, stuff or took some, some tablets that were for a, what was it?
01:08:58.900
Stu, like a fishing pond or something like that. Yeah. It's what fish tank. Uh, they weren't even
01:09:04.700
paying attention to what was being said. And you can't take this without a doctor's, uh, supervision.
01:09:10.040
Um, why were the doctors and the nurses there? Because it's not the way we're getting your
01:09:18.320
story. We're not getting it from the hospital saying it was a miracle. This stuff worked.
01:09:23.180
They're saying they're not sure. No, they're, they're, they're certainly being cautious about
01:09:28.480
it. Um, you know, they, they don't, they say there's no science behind it. Um, I'm not a scientist.
01:09:34.540
I'm not a doctor. I can just tell you how I feel. And I know that I was not doing well in my mind.
01:09:42.520
I didn't believe I was going to be here by the morning. Uh, and when they gave it to me, uh,
01:09:47.880
at four 45, when I woke up, if you don't have a fever and you don't have the science anymore,
01:09:52.580
I don't know anything else to attribute it to, but that medicine, um, you know, and it was told
01:09:58.420
me to ask, and it's not only me that it's worked for. Uh, there's many people that this has worked
01:10:03.480
for. So, um, you know, I certainly understand the hospital's position. Um, they may not be too
01:10:10.360
happy with me telling my story. Uh, but the facts are the facts. I'm glad you are. I'm glad you are.
01:10:16.420
Uh, do you know, are they using it for any other patients there in the hospital that
01:10:19.660
you are at? Uh, from what I understand? Yes, they are. Okay. And have you heard any results
01:10:26.760
on that? No, nothing at all. Nothing. Okay. So I was reading, go ahead.
01:10:35.240
No, no, they don't talk about the other patients too much. It was just a general statement made by
01:10:40.240
one of the nurses. Okay. So there is a South African swimmer, uh, one gold medal for a hundred
01:10:47.800
meter breaststroke, uh, in 2012. He's been training to go to, uh, the, the Olympics this
01:10:53.980
summer. He just contract, uh, contracted, uh, COVID-19. He's had it for 14 days. He said
01:11:00.920
he's in shape and his lungs are obviously in shape. And he said, it's the worst virus I've
01:11:07.680
ever endured. He said, I'm really healthy with strong lungs. He said the, the symptoms were
01:11:14.020
all severe. Um, he said it started as serious, serious fatigue. Then he said, even any kind
01:11:22.120
of walking, uh, just left me exhausted for hours. Um, he said, there's just nothing like
01:11:28.740
this. It's not the flu. The guy we just had on right before you, Rio, he said it was, it
01:11:34.180
was just a bad flu. Where, where are you on this? Well, I can tell you that, um, yeah,
01:11:41.260
I'm a businessman that sleeps maybe five hours a night and has done, have done that
01:11:46.500
my entire life. And this had me sleeping 12 to 15 hours a day. And I, I never, never
01:11:55.900
sleep that much. So I can go with the fatigue and understand that a hundred percent. I think
01:12:00.520
it hits everybody a little bit differently depending on who you are. Um, the headaches
01:12:04.760
were just intense. The fever, uh, was you just, there was nothing you could do to break
01:12:09.960
the fever, uh, the cough. Now I didn't get the sore throat that other people get. Um,
01:12:16.920
you know, so I guess it's an individual thing, but I will tell you, this is nothing you want
01:12:22.020
and nothing you want to play with because, uh, it was totally debilitating to me.
01:12:28.660
Great. Um, I'm glad that you are, I'm glad that you're doing so well, uh, Rio and, uh,
01:12:35.160
do you have any idea when you go home? Um, I, I, I'm really hoping today, but, um, I haven't
01:12:43.000
had an opportunity to speak to the doctor yet and the nurses don't know. So with any
01:12:47.520
luck, I'll be out here this afternoon. I'm starting to feel like brown.
01:12:53.280
There's nothing worse when you're feeling better and ready to go. There is nothing worse than
01:12:57.660
being trapped in a hospital. All right. Thank you so much. I appreciate it. Thank you very much.
01:13:09.140
I don't know. I think that sounds really hopeful. Really promising. I, I, yeah, I would hope that
01:13:16.780
we are, you know, people keep saying, well, there's no scientific, I, I'm hoping somebody's
01:13:21.640
doing some scientific testing on it right now. Uh, because that seems like a really good option.
01:13:27.540
This is an old drug. It's made now for lupus, uh, and people who have really, really bad arthritis,
01:13:35.780
uh, and it's been in the market forever. It, its biggest side effect is it can cause, uh, retinal
01:13:43.980
blindness. I think retinal something or other, uh, and you can go blind from it. However, that is not,
01:13:51.120
that's, that's, that's if you take it for a long period of time in higher doses, the doses recommended
01:13:56.940
for this are so low compared to anything you'd be taking for lupus or, you know, for, uh, for
01:14:02.740
arthritis. Um, it's, it's about half of the dose that you would take. And if that is what we have to
01:14:09.920
do, Israel is shipping 6 million doses over to us. Now I'm, I'm, I'm guessing that maybe we should
01:14:18.080
probably put some more effort into this because this makes it go away quickly. If indeed this is
01:14:25.460
true, uh, that's the, that's the cure. It's not just a, a, a vaccine. This looks like it's a cure.
01:14:35.380
Well, where's the press on this? At least it gets rid of the symptoms, right? Like that's,
01:14:41.100
it's, that's a little bit different than a cure where a vaccine can make you maybe not get the,
01:14:45.420
uh, disease at all, or something that makes it go away immediately. If it's just alleviates the
01:14:50.520
symptoms to half the extent that we've seen with some of the early cases, you know, I mean, I know
01:14:57.200
it's, uh, I know it's exciting, but it's, uh, we kind of hope that it comes through because it
01:15:01.400
would be a big difference. I mean, it's really the only path to no real negative effects here.
01:15:07.320
Right. Or at least very few. Yeah. I, I, I, I just, uh, the reason why I'm saying we should
01:15:12.980
accelerate some of these things if we can, I know the president is, but I don't know why the press
01:15:18.060
isn't on this. I think it's because he just mentioned it and he can't do anything right.
01:15:23.220
Um, but, uh, I don't know what we're doing on this drug and why we're not more excited about this
01:15:30.600
drug, at least at the potential of what this drug is, uh, is doing. And it's my understanding,
01:15:36.480
this played a very big role in, in South Korea, uh, and they're using it now in New York. I know
01:15:43.080
that they're using it, uh, in Italy. Why aren't we talking more about this drug and doubling down
01:15:50.840
on the manufacturer of something that's been in use forever, forever. This is a very old drug.
01:15:57.520
Uh, all right. Our sponsor, this, this half hour is zip recruiter. Despite all the ravages to the
01:16:05.340
economy from Corona virus, the American workforce is going to come back online, uh, hopefully sooner

This is the Glenn Beck program. Glad you're here.
01:17:44.380
Uh, Stu was watching. We were just talking about, uh, TV shows that, you know, they were
01:17:50.040
watching and for some reason or another, the purge came up. Um, uh, been watching a couple
01:17:55.080
of shows, uh, as a family lock and key. Have you seen that yet? Your kids are probably too
01:18:00.380
young. Lock and key. Uh, it is a series of books that is out really, really, really well
01:18:08.220
done. Um, surprise. I mean, you just can't find stuff anymore. You know, that's you can
01:18:14.760
watch with our 14 year old that doesn't have swearing in it. Um, but, uh, uh, it's, it's
01:18:20.940
really quite good. Have you ever seen dairy girls? No, I've never, I've never heard of
01:18:26.540
it. Okay. So I think that's from the BBC again. It's there. It's an Irish, it's a bunch
01:18:32.700
of Irish girls. It is. I think this should be redone in America. Uh, it's, you know, it's,
01:18:40.980
it has the feel kind of, uh, of, you know, a good, uh, Gervais kind of show, but not as
01:18:49.900
heart, not as much heart in it. Sure. It's just these, these trashy girls. They're all
01:18:55.800
in this Catholic school. They're all, you know, losers, uh, and, uh, and their trip
01:19:02.640
through school. I mean, it's, it's a little foul mouth. I don't know how the BBC does it.
01:19:06.760
I guess everybody else's standards are way different than ours. Uh, but, uh, it is laugh
01:19:13.780
out loud, funny, laugh out loud, funny. That's very cool. You watching anything? Well, I'm
01:19:17.840
very excited. Only three days away from the Ozark season three premiere, which is, uh, I haven't
01:19:23.640
started that and you say that's really good. So good. It's very dark. I don't know. I
01:19:27.640
don't know if you'd appreciate it or not. It's really well done. You'd like that part
01:19:30.600
of it. Uh, you know, it's goes in that same sort of better call Saul and breaking bad sort
01:19:35.240
of arena, which is dark, but I haven't seen either of those. Yeah. So good. Yeah. So
01:19:39.780
good. Yeah. All right. Our Corona's update is, uh, is coming up next. Also, uh, just an
01:19:46.440
update. Uh, Mike Bloomberg spent a billion of his own money on his failed presidential
01:19:52.040
bid. Oh, a billion. We're going to take your phone call, uh, this half hour. I want to hear
01:20:03.540
from you on, on how you're feeling about the quarantine thing. Dan Patrick, he's, uh, our
01:20:10.980
Lieutenant governor here in Texas. He said yesterday that I would rather I said like, look, I'm,
01:20:16.760
I'm 70, uh, you know, I've lived a good life, et cetera, et cetera. I think what we're doing
01:20:21.360
to our economy is going to destroy America. I don't think there's going to be anything
01:20:24.660
left. And I would rather go out and work and keep this country open for my grandchildren,
01:20:30.900
even if it meant my own life. And he said, you know, that doesn't make me a hero. That
01:20:35.600
just makes me, you know, a grandpa. I feel exactly the same way. And I'd like to hear from
01:20:41.600
you. 888-727-BECK. Our Corona virus update is coming up. Also the duck commander joins us in
01:20:49.340
about 30 minutes, all this hour. It begins right now. Can I ask you a question? When you
01:21:02.260
saw the biggest Dow crash since the recession and the biggest crash of all time, how'd you
01:21:12.660
feel? Didn't make me feel real good. Uh, you'd be crazy not to feel, uh, some real fear on that.
01:21:21.840
And you know, that doesn't lead to anything good now, perhaps it's time to invest in gold. Now,
01:21:31.360
perhaps it's time to make sure that you have something in case this just keeps going. Um,
01:21:37.780
I've been telling you now for almost 15 years that we have to prepare for the difficult times
01:21:44.640
in our lives. And there's some difficult times coming our way. I want you to do your own homework
01:21:49.380
because you're smart enough to figure this out. You know, the problem is, is everybody thinks it's
01:21:53.100
just them or they think it's no, it's stupid. And they listen to these experts and sometimes it's
01:21:58.120
good. I mean, it's always good to get an expert opinion and sometimes it's good to listen to experts.
01:22:02.560
And sometimes the experts are wrong. Um, sometimes they just count on systems far too much. I really
01:22:09.760
believe that you are smart enough to figure this out on your, uh, by yourself. That's, that's the
01:22:14.860
American way. Do your own homework, exhaust the homework, then quite honestly, take it to prayer
01:22:21.760
and then say, I've made a decision. What do you think? So do your own homework is gold or silver
01:22:28.020
right for you. It is for me and my family and the only people I trust. Goldline 1-866-GOLDLINE
01:22:35.460
1-866-GOLDLINE. Call them right now. Get the information. Uh, they're really good people.
01:22:42.040
They're not going to hard sell you on anything. Just call them now. It's 866-GOLDLINE or goldline.com.
01:22:51.280
After the hundredth time scrolling through your feed today, maybe you need some new reading
01:22:55.640
material to get you through the quarantine. Please. We gotcha. Glenn Beck has a new book
01:23:00.440
called Arguing with Socialists and you can pre-order it now wherever books are sold.
01:23:09.200
All right, so let's get our coronavirus update. All the numbers are from Johns Hopkins as of 530
01:23:13.640
AM central time. Total confirmed cases worldwide, 392,000. That's up about 50,000 from yesterday.
01:23:21.280
Total confirmed deaths worldwide are up 3,000 to 17,000. Total confirmed recovered is only up 3,000
01:23:31.880
itself. All 195 countries on earth have confirmed cases. The only place in the world you can go is
01:23:40.080
hanging with the penguins in Antarctica. No confirmed cases there. 5% of active cases worldwide are considered
01:23:47.520
serious requiring hospitalization. That's steady 5%. Yesterday, it was at 5%, but it was down
01:23:54.740
in February from 19%. I want to make a note here. 13% of the confirmed cases in America do currently
01:24:03.200
require hospitalization, but that number is expected to drop toward the international average as more
01:24:09.080
people are diagnosed through the testing. The U.S. now has 46,168 confirmed cases and
01:24:17.360
582 deaths. We are up almost 10,000 confirmed cases and about 130 deaths in the last 24 hours.
01:24:28.460
The U.S. has 295 officially recovered against the 582 official deaths.
01:24:37.100
So somehow or another, Joe Biden realized yesterday that it wasn't 1997 anymore and decided to get some of
01:24:44.440
that high speed internet into my recreation room. That's a quote in my recreation. He still has a
01:24:53.080
rec room. I haven't seen one of those since the Brady Bunch went off the air anyway, is making his
01:25:00.020
teleconferencing, uh, it is a rec room on this new high speed internet that the kids are all crazy about.
01:25:08.440
So he made, uh, he's going to make regular broadcasts combating coronavirus. Um, he made
01:25:15.500
yesterday's from his home in Delaware and it did not go well at all. Do we have a little clip of that?
01:25:21.900
Here he is. The teleprompter broke down and he did not know what to do.
01:25:26.580
I'm glad the president has finally activated the national guard. Now we need the armed forces and the
01:25:32.480
national guard to help with hospital capacity supplies and logistics. We need to activate the
01:25:38.120
reserve core of doctors and nurses and beef up the number of responders dealing with the crush,
01:25:43.280
these crush of cases. And, uh, and in addition to that, uh, in addition to that, we have to make
01:25:51.480
sure that we, uh, we are in a position that we are. Well, let me, let me go. The second thing I've
01:25:57.860
spoken of in it, the president must use defense production. Wow. Okay. So, uh, that was his
01:26:03.920
press conference comforting. Uh, wish he was in charge right now. Uh, but he says, you know,
01:26:08.820
now we've got to use the military. Well, yesterday, a thousand strong military unit arrived at the
01:26:14.520
Javits center in New York city. Wow. Yeah, but we need the military to start building hospitals.
01:26:20.120
Well, that's exactly what they were doing. Turning the Javits convention center
01:26:24.300
into a thousand bed emergency hospital. It'll be the first of four emergency hospitals in New York
01:26:30.240
state. They should be open within seven days. Dozens of national card troops have arrived at the
01:26:36.440
Jacob Javits center in Manhattan Monday morning. President Trump, um, approved governor Cuomo's plans
01:26:43.120
to set up the beds in the 1.3 million square foot convention center on Sunday night. FEMA will
01:26:50.740
oversee the facility as well as the staff and stock the center. Is there no more free travel
01:26:56.500
in the U S Florida's governor? DeSantis is ordering all inbound travelers arriving from New York or New
01:27:03.600
Jersey into a mandatory 14 day quarantine per an executive order that he signed yesterday.
01:27:10.680
DeSantis said in an address that more than a hundred such flights arrived daily into the state.
01:27:16.240
He believes each contains at least one person infected with the new Corona virus. He said he's
01:27:22.540
been in contact with federal officials about curtailing such flights, but he has not yet received a
01:27:28.060
response. He said people will be screened when they arrived and told they must self quarantine.
01:27:34.180
He said those travelers will not be allowed to stay with family or friends because that is the one way
01:27:39.400
the virus is spread. He didn't say specifically how self quarantine is going to be enforced.
01:27:44.680
He said it may actually, I'm quoting be a criminal offense. If you violate the quarantine order,
01:27:52.180
Florida law says it's a second degree misdemeanor to violate a quarantine order that could result in
01:27:58.200
a 60 day jail sentence. Notice he didn't have a problem when all of the kids were on the beaches
01:28:04.240
for spring break. That was an obscene scene, uh, at the time. And all the kids were like, Oh,
01:28:11.020
we're not going to get it. It's fine. They're all now testing positive.
01:28:14.680
For it. New video from Spain shows the hospital triage. People are on the floor in the hallways,
01:28:21.460
just waiting for a bed. Videos appear to show dozens of patients, some covered in sheets,
01:28:26.860
most wearing surgical masks laying on the floor in hospital hallways as they await for some bed
01:28:32.620
to somehow or another become available. It's one of the largest hospitals in Madrid. Spain had 385
01:28:40.000
deaths and more than 4,500 new cases diagnosed just yesterday. It has more than 850 infected persons
01:28:47.800
for every 1 million citizens. That's the third highest in the world after Italy and Switzerland,
01:28:54.440
but perhaps echoing Spain's rapidly outgrowing outbreak. The, um, big easy now is being criticized for
01:29:04.240
not shutting down Mardi Gras celebrations and parades and parties over the warnings of local
01:29:10.020
and national health officials against those large gatherings, which came as early as February 8th in
01:29:16.000
the U S Louisiana governor, John bell Edwards says his state now has the fastest growing cases of COVID-19
01:29:23.860
in the world. Citing statistics from a university, Louisiana, Lafayette study. Uh,
01:29:30.820
Edward said the growth rate of the state is headed for a steep upward trajectory, similar to what Spain and Italy
01:29:37.920
have experienced. He said, Louisiana has the third highest number of cases per capita in the U S behind New York
01:29:45.460
and Washington respectively. But the rate of growth per capita exceeds any single hotspot in the world.
01:29:52.780
You know, if it was gonna, if it was gonna break out, I mean, you would think Vegas or New Orleans.
01:29:59.960
I mean, there's something in the water down in New Orleans. Edwards announced a stay at home ban for his
01:30:06.700
state that will come into effect on Monday at 5 PM, excluding citizens leaving home for essential services.
01:30:14.240
There's no word on whether the state's, uh, 1200, uh, drive through margarita stands are exempt from the order,
01:30:20.580
but I think anything that limits alcohol at this time is not a good thing. Uh, Nobel prize winner doom
01:30:28.180
and gloom forecasts are like likely overdone. This one comes from Dr. Michael Levitt, who is credited
01:30:35.600
for correctly calling early that China would get the worst of its devastating outbreak long before many
01:30:42.720
other health experts predicted. They would on January 31st, China had 46 new deaths compared with 42 the day
01:30:50.420
before, which Levitt recognized as a slowing of the rate of growth. This suggests the rate of increase in the
01:30:57.040
number of deaths will slow down even more over the next week. Levitt won the 2013 Nobel prize in chemistry.
01:31:04.740
Yeah, but they give those away like candy now. And he ultimately nailed the call. Listen to this. I mean,
01:31:11.400
you want a prediction that comes right in mid February, he said there would be a mid February peak
01:31:18.460
with a total tally of eight 80,000 cases and 3,250 deaths. As of March 16th, China had counted a total of
01:31:32.960
80,000, 80,298 deaths. So close without going over. And he said there would be 3,250. There are 3,245
01:31:47.420
deaths. The 80,000 was almost 1.4 billion. Yeah. 80,000 was the total cases, right? You said deaths. It was 80,000
01:31:54.260
total cases. Yeah, I know. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. 80,000 cases. He said there would be 80,000. They had 80,298.
01:32:02.040
And he said there'd be a 32,50 on deaths. There's 32,45. I mean, that guy, can we talk to him? I mean,
01:32:10.740
I would like to. Yeah, that's incredible. Talk to him. And he's optimistic too, which is pretty rare
01:32:16.360
these days from the experts. Yeah. And maybe this is a guy we should listen to. Maybe this is just a
01:32:23.340
guy that we should listen to. Now we said we would never go for it here in America, but we are.
01:32:32.040
What was the thing that you thought was just so disturbing that they did do in China?
01:32:40.080
Well, they were. Besides welding people in. Yeah. Welding people into apartments came to mind right
01:32:45.540
away. There was something they were doing that we all said we'd never put up with it. The massive
01:32:51.760
surveillance state that they constructed around pretty much everyone there to the point where they
01:32:58.580
were. I mean, they were going, they were giving reporters QR codes to have to scan and
01:33:03.680
to every building they were going into so that they could be tracked. They were being tracked by
01:33:07.960
drones. They were being surveilled in every part of their internet access. As I mentioned,
01:33:15.860
the million people or so they threw in a camp, which is a totally unrelated incident, but also
01:33:19.340
problematic. So the Chula Vista police department in California recently doubled its fleet of drones
01:33:31.040
purchasing two of the machines from a Chinese company called DJI. The police department told
01:33:38.520
the Financial Times that they would be outfitted with night vision cameras. We have not traditionally
01:33:44.100
mounted speakers to our drones, but if we need to cover a large area to get an announcement out
01:33:49.900
and if there's a crowd somewhere that we need to disperse, we could do it without getting police
01:33:54.860
officers involved. The outbreak has changed my view of expanding the program. I think we need to
01:34:01.880
expand it as rapidly as I can, said the captain. U S officials have warned about the threat of Chinese
01:34:08.500
made drones that they could pose a threat to the United States. The company that the police department
01:34:13.420
is purchasing from DJI is the world's largest player in the civilian drone industry. But DJI is based in
01:34:21.860
Canada. Spencer Gore, the chief executive of the U S based drone company, impossible aerospace said
01:34:27.740
he is working like crazy to help equip other law enforcement agencies with drones. We just can't
01:34:34.360
keep up with the orders from law enforcement agencies and health departments. So how do we feel about
01:34:41.400
that one? How are we feeling about drones and our police department using drones? Suboptimal would be the first
01:34:50.000
thing that came to mind. Not, not the optimal sub that optimal. That is, I mean, I guess like you could make
01:34:57.560
the argument in a case of, you know, where everyone's supposed to stay away from each other to break up a
01:35:03.360
crowd. If it floats over with a speaker, it's maybe not that bad. I mean, I know they've done that in,
01:35:08.100
in crowd breakup situations before, but it sends a pretty creepy message and not in love with it.
01:35:16.460
Not in love with it. Yeah. Yeah. Remember, remember Stu, we were at CNN and we said that there were drones
01:35:25.600
being used on the Southern border or the Northern border. I can't remember which one it was. I think it was
01:35:30.580
on the Northern border and they were being used for drug trade, uh, up on the Northern border. And
01:35:36.060
people went ballistic. They went crazy. And it was, it was on the border looking for drug people. We
01:35:44.340
don't do that. We don't do that. We don't use drones. I remember just shaking my head thinking,
01:35:48.580
Oh, we will. And soon you won't have a problem with it. And here we are, here we are. This is going
01:35:55.740
to change everything. Um, tomorrow night, we're going to show you the things that are hidden,
01:36:01.380
uh, from you, the plans that are being made, the plans that are being drawn and the things for
01:36:07.060
instance, uh, they are trying to pass in this, uh, in this new stimulus bill. It's terrifying.
01:36:14.740
And the power is never coming back to you. We have to stay vigilant. If we are to keep America
01:36:21.760
and, uh, keep the country that we all know and love that's tomorrow night at 9 PM, uh, Eastern time.

01:37:10.900
maybe some of those people are, well, like my wife, she works from home. She's got an office in the
01:37:15.500
house and she had this crappy office chair up until Christmas time when she was like, ah,
01:37:20.960
that's what I want is an X chair. Okay. Yes, dear. So I got her an X chair and it is just great.
01:37:27.160
I'm sitting in the next chair here in my home studio. Now, um, working from home is really on

So Stu, I noticed something yesterday. I've been watching the president at five o'clock and getting
01:39:00.140
his updates. Um, and I think he is, I think if people watch those, uh, he's, he's got a combination
01:39:11.800
of his TV show, the apprentice and the fireside chat. He's bringing these people in. He's not
01:39:21.940
talking the whole time. They're answering for him. He's really, really good at saying, you
01:39:27.440
know what, why don't you answer that one, Mike? Uh, uh, why don't you, Bill, why don't
01:39:31.640
you answer that one? I was shocked. The press asked him a question. That was just a trap
01:39:36.600
question. One that I thought for sure he was just going to answer. Cause he likes the
01:39:41.520
controversy. He didn't Mike, why don't you answer that one? Um, he's really effective in
01:39:48.620
these, uh, in these press conferences. If you actually watch them. Yeah. He's much more
01:39:56.360
effective in that setting. I think then an oval office speech, which is just not, it's
01:40:02.120
not the right vibe for him. It's much better for him to be out there doing those things.
01:40:06.000
And I think he's done, he's had a little bit of a back and forth with the press and the
01:40:10.220
press has deserved a lot of it. I mean, they've been constantly focused on whether he's too
01:40:14.120
racist. He's so racist before calling it the China virus, totally nonsensical things.
01:40:19.240
No one gets better from COVID-19, uh, because of, uh, of that question being asked. There's
01:40:25.760
no hope of anyone, uh, having any improvement or the situation getting any better by asking
01:40:31.920
questions like that, but they do it anyway. Uh, it's really a fascinating thing. And you
01:40:35.980
look at the, the, what they're doing now, which is trying to draw a line of separation
01:40:41.720
between Trump and Fauci. They're trying to say, well, Trump's not listening to him. They're
01:40:46.660
trying to antagonize that line and irritate it. Uh, which if you believe what they say
01:40:53.660
they believe about Trump would be the worst thing in the world you could do. Right? Like,
01:40:57.560
yeah, but you know, they're just despicable. That's the only thing they care about is taking
01:41:01.860
Trump out. Whether this virus seems to hit anybody or not. Let me give you this. Trump has
01:41:06.880
an approval rating of 50%. The press has 44% and the Congress has a 42%. He's the most
01:41:14.840
popular. You're listening to Glenn Beck. American financing NMLS 1-823-34 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

best thing you can do with your time. This is the best phone call you can make. Uh, the interest

01:42:42.080
Let's go to Phil Robertson. He is, uh, the, uh, blaze TV host of unashamed and, uh, in the woods with
01:42:57.460
Phil, uh, the duck commander joins us from his home in West Monroe, Louisiana. How you doing, Phil?
01:43:04.980
Well, I'm doing well. I've been under self quarantine for about the last 35, 40 years.
01:43:10.540
So this is nothing new to me. Right. I, I know that. I know that. How is, uh, how's Ms. K?
01:43:19.940
Ms. K is doing fine. She's doing the cooking. We're eating well. It is myself, the eunuch,
01:43:27.840
Dan, the eunuch, Ms. K, me and the eunuch. We're down here, hold up under lock and keep plenty of
01:43:35.760
weapons around in case people want to come in and rob us or kill us. But, uh, right.
01:43:40.360
The current pandemic. But nothing has really, Phil, nothing has changed in your life, has it?
01:43:44.860
Nothing. Nothing has changed. Absolutely nothing has changed whatsoever.
01:43:50.740
And you are actually probably further than what the president has recommended.
01:43:56.460
That is correct. I'm way out here by design, by the way. You say, did you pick this place to get
01:44:04.300
back? One little pig trail. I'm surrounded by water because the, the floods come, the droughts come,
01:44:11.460
the fires come, the pestilence comes, the plagues come. I know they're coming. Uh, listen to this.
01:44:21.020
Why do the nations, right? This was written at 3,500 years ago. Why did the nations rage and the
01:44:29.220
people's plot in vain? The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together
01:44:34.920
against the Lord and against his anointed one. Let us break their chains. The one enthroned in heaven,
01:44:42.780
this is God, scoffs at them. He laughs at them. Then he rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them.
01:44:51.160
That's why everybody's running scared back. He terrifies them in his wrath. Therefore you
01:44:58.300
kings be wise, be warned you rulers of the earth, serve the Lord with fear and rejoice with trembling.
01:45:07.240
Kiss the son, lest he be angry and you be destroyed in your way for his wrath can flare up in a moment.
01:45:17.480
Blessed are all those who take refuge in him. All you're seeing is the judgment of God on the
01:45:24.720
wicked. You saw it seven, eight years ago, then 10 years before then, just count them up in this
01:45:30.940
century back. Look through the world all throughout the old Testament. God used, he used, uh, pandemics,
01:45:40.360
pestilence, plagues over and over and over to judge the human race. But we're slow to learn. We elect
01:45:49.680
known Marxists and we, we got them in the, now they're in their government, Bernie Sanders. He's
01:45:56.700
got thousands of followers and they run them through the education mill and they come out being
01:46:02.940
ungodly to the core of their being. Bernie's leading the pack. And you say, God's not sleeping.
01:46:10.400
He punishes for stuff like that, Beck. And, and some people find it surprising that you're alone.
01:46:17.860
Yeah. And some people, I mean, you're not helping my mood here at all, Phil. You're not helping my
01:46:26.660
mood. Yeah. They will curse me and say, and curse me. What in the world? Somebody, some guy down there
01:46:34.000
is saying a pandemic of God could have done it. You know, God wouldn't do that to us. There's no God.
01:46:40.220
Well, if there's no God, here comes a pandemic and everybody's scared to death because I've been
01:46:46.900
listening to them. I'm sitting down here eating Miss Kay's cooking and enjoying a good sunrise,
01:46:53.920
taking a boat ride up the river. I haven't seen a single soul down in here. Not one. I have no
01:47:00.540
visitors. I'm just down in here and I'm looking and I'm thinking, uh, I think maybe God is saying,
01:47:07.560
can you see me yet? Yeah. And he'll give them another decade and he'll put another fire on them,
01:47:15.200
another storm, another flood, another pandemic. And he's saying, you better listen to what I am
01:47:21.860
telling you. I've given you, uh, removed your sins by sending my son. It's 2020 back, which that
01:47:32.180
tells you a little connotation of, we ought to be seeing clearly. So 2020, God says, let's see,
01:47:38.660
let's see how they're seeing me. And he unleashes the pandemic on me on us. And he says, can you see
01:47:45.000
me yet? It's 2020, uh, go backwards and you get back to one. That's when Jesus showed up. There's a
01:47:53.060
resurrection of the dead. I'm in on it. So I'm looking at it. And along with God, I'm laughing at
01:47:59.160
them and saying, you folks, why don't you just repent? And they just snarl at you when you say
01:48:05.880
repent and live a God, they snarl the hatred, vitriol coming out of them. It's a sad thing to
01:48:13.100
watch. So, so, so, so Phil, uh, I will say this. I, I thought it was, I thought it was great that we
01:48:22.080
kind of started last weekend with a, uh, national day of prayer. I do think that this is waking some
01:48:30.460
people up. Those with eyes and ears are hearing and they are waking up. I do too. He who dwells in
01:48:38.600
the shelter of the most high will rest in the shadow of the almighty. I will say to the Lord,
01:48:46.140
he is my refuge and my fortress. You will not fear terror, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the
01:48:54.940
pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. A thousand may fall
01:49:02.860
at your right side, 10,000 at your right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only observe
01:49:11.820
with your eyes to see the punishment of the wicked. Everybody needs to read this listening.
01:49:17.840
Psalms 91. Psalms 90 says the length of our days is 70 years or 80. If we have the strength yet,
01:49:27.660
their span is but trouble and sorrow for they quickly pass and we all fly away. So we understand what
01:49:36.800
physical death is. We understand pandemics and floods and drought and pestilence and all the
01:49:42.340
diseases. You say one way out back. If there's no resurrection of the day, that is what Jesus showed
01:49:49.580
us 2000, 20 years ago, when he appeared, he's shown us the way by being resurrected from the dead.
01:49:57.380
Now look, all the atheists and everybody else, I'm waiting on a better solution and a better story.
01:50:04.680
So far, I have not heard it. Have you? No. Um, I do want to ask you though, a couple of,
01:50:12.820
a couple of questions. Um, yeah, I don't know if this is true. Um, but I've heard cause you're
01:50:21.180
doing the, the, the new, you know, into the, in, in the quarantine, uh, with, with, with you and it,
01:50:27.660
it airs Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, I think 5 PM. Uh, and, um, and I just, I just,
01:50:34.860
I do want to ask you, is it true that you say that you said you didn't need toilet paper?
01:50:41.800
You got to remember. I mean, I hate to go. Yeah, go ahead. I'm going, I'm going through the flooded,
01:50:46.480
all this flooded timber and everybody. It just occurred to me. Everybody's fighting over toilet
01:50:54.220
paper. They can't get enough of it. They're getting, it'd been bulk loads, loading their car down.
01:50:59.060
I just happened to pull up under a big old overcup tree that had blown down in a storm and the leaves
01:51:05.720
were just hanging there. And I thought everybody's running out of toilet paper, but me, I just reached
01:51:13.240
and grabbed one of the limbs and broke it off. Okay. So yeah. All right. So here's, I mean,
01:51:18.800
that's when most of us are just like, I don't, I mean, I hope the Corona virus takes me. If we get
01:51:27.500
down to that, I kind of hope that takes me. What I'm saying is everybody needs to chill out. There
01:51:35.060
is a God in heaven. He will see us through this. You're not going to make it out of here unless you
01:51:40.480
put your faith in Jesus. You should do that. The reason why is in the midst of all these pandemics
01:51:46.380
and all the other things that befall the human race, look, love, joy. I'm showing them through
01:51:53.840
this series, fill in the woods down here during the pandemic, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness,
01:52:02.840
goodness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. I'm just showing them, look,
01:52:09.620
it's a wonderful way to survive anything. And you're not running scared and they can say all
01:52:16.580
they want to. We're not afraid. Beck, they are scared to death. And I, and I feel sorry for them.
01:52:24.060
And I'm trying to point to them, point them to Jesus saying, look, peace of mind, man, peace,
01:52:29.900
peace of mind. The rarest of commodities is yours. If you would just repent, turn to them by faith.
01:52:37.740
I mean, give me a break. How hard could it be? Love God and love your neighbor. Be ready for any kind
01:52:45.580
of pandemic or whatever comes. They come, they come and they go, they come and they go. God will protect
01:52:51.660
you, but you have to be on his side and honor him and bow down to him. It's a, it's, it's a puzzle.
01:53:00.600
So I spend all my time trying to convince people, why don't you just try Jesus? It'll work. So,
01:53:08.100
well, Phil, it is always, it is always a pleasure to talk to somebody who just doesn't give a flying
01:53:15.900
crap. Uh, and you just say, say what you mean. Uh, new episode of Phil's in the quarantine series
01:53:23.220

01:53:38.620
game for me. I would have loved to get it to have gotten him and Don Imus together. Cause
01:53:50.060
I think those two, don't they sound alike? I mean, they, they, they, they're not saying
01:53:55.860
the same things, but they just, neither one of them gave a flying crap about what anybody
01:54:01.940
thought. That would have been an interesting conversation. I have no idea what would have
01:54:05.000
happened at the end of it. It would have been fun though, right? Oh yeah. It would have been
01:54:12.600
fun just to watch. I miss my friend Don. All right. Uh, if, if you've been working from home

01:55:56.240
Okay. Let's take a Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Thank you so much for listening and holding this. The Glenn Beck
01:56:06.420
program. Hi Glenn. Thanks so much for taking my call. Um, sure. I just wanted to share with you
01:56:12.960
a little bit. Um, I have systemic lupus, um, erythematosus. So I actually take, um, hydroxychloroquine
01:56:20.320
every day. Um, my rheumatologist calls it my lupus life insurance policy. Yeah. Um, it's,
01:56:27.440
it's supposedly fantastic for, for lupus and, and things like that. It really is. I mean,
01:56:35.540
I've had no side effects with it. Um, I mean, it's, I really don't feel unless I go off of it. Um,
01:56:45.500
it really does help kind of curb my symptoms and, um, prevent any kind of like organ involvement
01:56:51.380
and stuff like that. So I'm really excited about the possibilities of this drug. Um,
01:56:56.860
Oh yeah. A little, a little, um, cautious about, um, some of the strain that I know is happening on
01:57:03.420
the production of it. Um, so that all of the other lupus people can, you know, make sure that they
01:57:08.960
maintain their medicines as well. Sure. Sure. Well, I'm, I'm assuming, I know that
01:57:15.400
Israel is one of the makers of this drug and they are shipping 6 million pills by, I think this
01:57:20.980
weekend to the United States. Um, and so the production line is, uh, is being upped on it.
01:57:27.720
Uh, but I'm, I, you know, we should have a stockpile because everyone who goes down South in South
01:57:34.060
America or goes overseas, they all get this because it's a malaria drug. So every soldier gets this,
01:57:41.880
the United States government, the military should have an awful lot of this drug, uh, laying around
01:57:48.440
themselves as well. Sarah, thank you so much for the perspective. And I hope you feel better. I'm,
01:57:52.880
I'm glad that drugs working for you. Randall, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
01:57:57.980
Hi, Glenn. Hey, uh, hi, hear me. Hi. Hey, I can go ahead. I've been listening to you since you had
01:58:06.520
the pitchfork, the episode with the pitchforks on CNN headline news. And I was hooked. Oh my gosh.
01:58:13.540
Wow. So, you know, that's been a long time. Yeah. I, I'm in, um, New Jersey. I'm a contractor
01:58:19.940
do home improvement. And, um, I have been so frustrated by what's been going on. Um, I, I,
01:58:26.540
I Googled, why is there no line item veto anymore? What the hell's going on? Why can't we just push
01:58:32.840
back with these idiots in Congress and just give Trump, he has the most common sense of any president
01:58:39.160
in my lifetime. He pushes back. He's always saying, we're thinking what I'm thinking. And I'm like,
01:58:44.740
damn it. He's right. And then, you know, when he's in these conferences, I'm watching and he is
01:58:50.120
saying so many logical things that just really have common sense, like, just like this drug you were
01:58:55.480
just talking about. And he's always getting assailed by these leftists. And it's so frustrating for me
01:59:01.980
to watch. Um, and I was just wondering why yesterday in conference, instead of just being
01:59:06.840
so generic and saying, well, they put some stuff, just say this new green deal crap they're putting
01:59:12.120
in there. I'm not going to go for it. We just got to help the people and just, just say it there.
01:59:17.360
And then what happens is on the other channels, they're saying he's lying. I mean, like Rachel
01:59:22.120
Mano yesterday on her show was saying the president is just out and out lying. And then they call us
01:59:27.440
conspiracy theorists. It's so frustrating to see this. I know. I mean, uh,
01:59:33.300
Randall, Randall, I am with you. I think America feels the same way. Just know this. He has the
01:59:39.840
highest approval rating. He's first those underneath him, the press and then Congress. Uh, so they talk
01:59:47.440
about how underwater he is with approval ratings. He's the best of the lot. According to the latest
