The Glenn Beck Program - Hello, America. How Are You Feeling？｜ 8⧸30⧸19

00:00:00.000 We've got a great program lined up and ready to go for you today.

00:00:07.600 Bill O'Reilly is coming up in just a second.

00:00:09.820 First, let me tell you about our Spotlight Sponsor.

00:00:12.940 If you have a chunk of money that is going for your monthly budget just to pay these high credit card bills,

00:00:23.320 you have to get out of that.

00:00:26.300 You've got to get out of the high interest rates.

00:00:30.960 You'll never pay these things off.

00:00:32.660 Now, listen, you're not alone.

00:00:34.420 It's not unusual.

00:00:36.180 But my kick right now is to make sure that we do everything we possibly can to become really financially bulletproof,

00:00:46.140 or as much as we can be, for anything that might be coming our way.

00:00:50.400 If a Democrat is elected, I think we are, and they pursue the end of capitalism kind of stuff they're talking about,

00:00:59.120 we're doomed.

00:01:00.300 So please, please, if you have a mortgage, you might want to think about refinancing.

00:01:05.880 You might want to think about a consolidation loan, which would get rid of a lot of those credit card debts.

00:01:11.300 And you can save thousands of dollars.

00:01:14.220 Please just make a 10-minute phone call to AmericanFinancing.net.

00:01:17.760 You can call them at 800-906-2440.

00:01:22.020 It's AmericanFinancing.net.

00:01:24.920 Hello, America.

00:01:27.540 It's Friday.

00:01:29.880 And I am thrilled that it is Friday.

00:01:34.020 Been a long week.

00:01:35.220 We've got a lot coming up for you today.

00:01:37.320 We have some laughs.

00:01:38.200 So I want to connect with you on the phone here right at the beginning and talk to you a little bit about how you're feeling about things.

00:01:45.140 You know, one of the things that happened in the last election is, quite honestly, I was a little bit arrogant,

00:01:54.380 and I violated one of my first principles.

00:02:00.440 I wasn't listening to you.

00:02:03.620 This show is about you.

00:02:05.520 It's not about me.

00:02:06.500 So I missed the pain that you were feeling last election.

00:02:12.940 So I want to check in with you now, and I want to continue to do this during the election period.

00:02:19.200 And hear what's happening in your life.

00:02:21.520 What are you feeling?

00:02:22.520 What are you seeing?

00:02:24.820 How's your economy?

00:02:26.780 Because that's the one that really matters.

00:02:28.440 How is your economy going?

00:02:30.120 Are you feeling the relief?

00:02:31.860 Are you feeling pain?

00:02:33.080 What are your friends saying?

00:02:36.300 How do you feel about the upcoming election?

00:02:38.980 I just want to get a gut check from you on what's real and what's not, because you're not being reflected in the mainstream media at all.

00:02:48.560 We're also going to talk a little bit about Mike Lee.

00:02:51.380 He's in hot water with Tucker Carlson.

00:02:53.780 Well, when I read the article about what Tucker was saying, I immediately got on the phone with Mike Lee and said,

00:03:02.940 What's the deal, dude?

00:03:05.780 Wow.

00:03:08.420 In two sentences, you can understand what the deal is, dude.

00:03:14.640 And it's pretty, I think it's pretty eye-opening.

00:03:19.120 We'll give that to you coming up in one minute.

00:03:23.040 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:28.840 I find this fact fascinating, but it is not a downplay of the police.

00:03:34.860 I just never thought of it.

00:03:36.400 And once you realize it, it's like, it's so true.

00:03:40.520 How many times, if you have a burglar alarm, how many times has your burglar alarm gone off by accident?

00:03:48.020 Somebody opens a window, somebody opens the door, and you forgot that you set the burglar alarm.

00:03:53.340 It happens at least, I think I've had the police at my house maybe four times in the last year,

00:04:02.200 and only one of them was real.

00:04:05.720 Well, it takes about the average time.

00:04:08.240 It takes about 45 minutes for the police to arrive when an alarm goes off.

00:04:12.900 Well, that's kind of a long period because they're gone usually in 15 minutes.

00:04:18.880 So you never catch the guy.

00:04:21.460 Well, this is because the police know that 99% of the time when that burglar alarm goes off, it's a false alarm.

00:04:29.760 So you're put down at the bottom of the 911 list.

00:04:34.440 If you have video verification, which large companies are the only ones that have this when they have private security,

00:04:41.820 they can see that there is somebody, and they call the police, and they say,

00:04:46.880 by the way, video verification, there is a problem here.

00:04:50.720 Well, now they get to the residents or to the business in seven minutes.

00:04:57.500 You're at the top of the list.

00:04:59.760 This is amazing.

00:05:02.220 I never even thought of it, but it makes total sense.

00:05:06.700 So why don't you have video verification?

00:05:09.540 Because they only do it for people who have lots and lots of cash, usually corporations.

00:05:16.440 Well, now SimpliSafe has that technology, and it's $15 a month, so you don't have to be Apple to have it.

00:05:24.480 But SimpliSafe makes it really easy.

00:05:27.040 There's no contract, no hidden fees, no fine print.

00:05:30.180 The around-the-clock monitoring, including video verification, starts at $15 a month.

00:05:36.320 Now, there's a huge deal going on right now.

00:05:38.360 Well, SimpliSafeBeck.com.

00:05:39.960 If you go there, you order your system, you also get a free security camera so they can video verify.

00:05:47.920 It's SimpliSafeBeck.com.

00:05:50.100 That's SimpliSafeBeck.com.

00:05:54.160 Go there now.

00:06:03.660 I really want to hear from you today.

00:06:08.700 So I'm going to start with taking some phone calls, or we'll get busy into other things.

00:06:14.060 And before you know it, Bill O'Reilly will be with us next hour.

00:06:16.580 So I want to go to Claire.

00:06:21.260 She's calling from Missouri and going to tell us what's happening in her life and how she's viewing the world today.

00:06:30.120 Hello, Claire.

00:06:31.140 I have two perspectives I'd like to touch on, if I could.

00:06:35.240 And I think they both maybe kind of boil down to the same root, which is a severe lack of introspection, I think, in this country.

00:06:45.660 We are not taught to have introspection anymore.

00:06:50.140 My perspective is from a social media standpoint, I don't even try to inform anybody on Facebook in a personal way, like on their Facebook page.

00:07:04.720 I don't comment on anything anymore.

00:07:06.800 I put out my own information, but I have been shouted down way too many times.

00:07:13.060 And that's just not a good forum to be able to discuss.

00:07:16.940 You can't discuss like that.

00:07:19.460 Yeah.

00:07:20.100 Yeah.

00:07:20.440 When you're talking face-to-face with somebody, then you can really, you know, well, they can't be as rude, you know?

00:07:28.740 I mean, they could be.

00:07:29.540 Unless there's a crowd.

00:07:30.740 Unless there's a crowd around.

00:07:32.360 Yeah.

00:07:33.400 True.

00:07:33.880 Yeah.

00:07:34.040 And then from my husband's perspective, in the business world, he read this book called Quiet by Susan Cain.

00:07:42.260 And in it, she documents how the Harvard Business School, they've moved from character to charisma.

00:07:48.720 And now it's all about pretending that you know the answer.

00:07:52.440 And it doesn't matter if the answer is right or not.

00:07:55.720 It's whoever can convince the room that their answer is right.

00:08:01.100 And my husband deals with this in business all the time where it's like, okay, we can't just solve the problem here.

00:08:08.580 We have to grandstand and pretend we know what we're talking about.

00:08:13.600 And it's so frustrating for him to try to get this done.

00:08:19.080 Everything that I've ever taught my son and my daughters, everything I learned as a kid, I learned as a kid, if you don't have the answer, there is strength in saying, I don't know, but I'll find the answer.

00:08:35.500 Exactly.

00:08:35.600 If somebody tries to bluff with me and use their charisma, that's the last day they work for me.

00:08:43.820 I mean, I don't understand that.

00:08:47.300 When somebody comes to you and has the vulnerability to say, I honestly don't know, that's when you win.

00:08:55.220 And my husband gets a lot of respect from the people above him when he does that.

00:09:01.260 They're astounded.

00:09:02.220 They can't believe, but they know that they can trust him.

00:09:06.000 You know, they know that they can trust him to say, you know, put it the way things are.

00:09:11.440 And my husband's all about, it's funny, I mean, same as Trump, winning.

00:09:15.400 You know, hey, are we going to win in this business?

00:09:18.100 Are we going to do the best for the least cost?

00:09:22.140 Or are we going to go round and round and round in circles hoping that we succeed?

00:09:27.440 So I think, and I think both of those things come down to, we have lost the ability to look at ourselves and say, hey, am I a part of the problem here?

00:09:36.500 You mentioned, gosh, it's been a couple months ago now, but like maybe we should all treat ourselves like alcoholics.

00:09:42.920 You know, maybe we should all go through a 12-step program.

00:09:46.460 You know, because that really, that's the answer right there.

00:09:52.640 I wish that was a required school, high school course, to be completely honest with you.

00:09:57.760 I think you, you know, I've said alcoholics, recovering alcoholics, not the, you know, like, have I got another thing?

00:10:05.600 The recovering alcoholics.

00:10:07.320 I love that.

00:10:07.920 They're going to, by the way.

00:10:09.120 It's the only way I can understand certain news, you know, like, and Bernie Sanders is, would be Donald Trump today if the election were held.

00:10:21.660 Then it makes sense.

00:10:23.680 Claire, I really think that recovery is what this country needs because you first have to admit that there's a higher power and you are powerless to fix the things that are out of control.

00:10:36.260 And then you need to say, you know what, I've done a lot of things wrong and I apologize.

00:10:42.280 Boy, those, just that would turn us around.

00:10:45.020 Yes.

00:10:45.880 Yes.

00:10:46.380 And on top of that, my need to convince you that everything that I say is right, I can't be wrong.

00:10:54.820 You know, there's that, like, we can't have a discussion that's back and forth anymore.

00:10:59.060 It's like if you, you know, some of my friends, if I question them, which I'd done in the past on Facebook and got trounced severely, like, okay, I guess I won't touch that subject anymore.

00:11:09.280 So I just hope that being a nice, sane person on Facebook who puts out some things but is not, you know, in everybody's face all the time will maybe allow some of my friends to check out some of the things that I post, PragerU, walkaway stories, you know, stuff like that.

00:11:33.160 But unless it's face-to-face, the argument is doomed.

00:11:39.580 Claire, I will tell you this.

00:11:41.400 I applaud what you're doing.

00:11:43.980 I think you're on exactly the right track.

00:11:45.940 But I have found that just living your life, as an example, not showing it off to anybody, just living your life and people seeing it and seeing how happy you are and how miserable they are, without you ever saying it, without, when you share something from PragerU,

00:12:12.300 you share it because you found truth in it, and if people watch it or don't watch it, that's fine.

00:12:19.720 You're not trying to win or start an argument.

00:12:22.400 You will change the world.

00:12:24.680 Yeah, just put it out there.

00:12:26.660 So, and I have written a 12, it's not a 12-step, but it's for people who don't think that they need a 12-step program.

00:12:34.960 It's kind of a, you know, under the radar type of thing, hoping.

00:12:40.920 Would you send that to me?

00:12:43.280 Okay, hold on.

00:12:44.100 I'm going to put you on hold.

00:12:46.920 Yeah, I mean, we get thousands every day, so I don't know how we missed it, but I'm going to put you on hold, talk to our producer, and I'll get it right away, and we'll share it.

00:12:57.780 Thank you so much, Claire.

00:13:00.220 All right, let me go to Nikki in North Carolina.

00:13:04.980 Hello, Nikki.

00:13:06.080 I live in Raleigh, North Carolina, and I grew up in Maine, and you would think that I'm liberal, but I'm not.

00:13:14.560 My dad was very libertarian, so I grew up with more of that sensibility.

00:13:20.540 And my husband is a native of North Carolina, and in Raleigh, we call him a unicorn because there are so few natives around here. 1.00

00:13:27.280 So as I was telling the screener, we have a lot of exposure and a lot of interaction with native North Carolinians who are very conservative.

00:13:38.280 And when we are around each other, they talk very similar to Trump.

00:13:44.440 They do feel kind of empowered, and sometimes it does bother me because I support a lot of Trump's policy.

00:13:49.400 I like a lot of the action that has been taken under Trump.

00:13:53.620 I don't love everything that he says and how he says it.

00:13:57.440 And so I feel like, as Stu said the other day on the News and Why It Matters, if you could kind of see him as the presidency without an actual figurehead.

00:14:08.400 And I thought, that's genius, because I do love what he's doing.

00:14:13.000 And I find here, for the 2016 election, you didn't know that Trump supporters were in hiding.

00:14:20.020 And now I can see they're in hiding.

00:14:22.820 I see it personally.

00:14:24.580 I have a small business.

00:14:26.380 I can't say anything on social media that even remotely might be construed as supporting Trump or even any type of conservative agenda.

00:14:35.960 Or I'm a racist, and I'm a terrible person, and I don't love children.

00:14:41.660 So, Nikki, so wait, let me ask you this and take it down one more step.

00:14:49.320 I think there are a lot of people that don't say things because they are afraid.

00:14:55.000 But I also think, for the first time in my life, there are a lot of people that don't want to voice their support because we live in it.

00:15:03.700 It doesn't mean they don't support him.

00:15:05.340 But because we live in an all-or-nothing kind of world, if you say, well, you know what, I do support the president's policies, you're immediately with everything he says.

00:15:19.280 And, you know, I don't want to be a guy who says, oh, I love President Trump, because I don't.

00:15:26.960 I have real significant issues with him on policies and some principles, but I'll vote for him this time.

00:15:36.840 I'm pretty darn sure because the other side is going to destroy the economic world.

00:15:45.060 If Elizabeth Warren comes in and she implements her, you know, end of the free market system kind of policies, it's global chaos and an end to America as we know it. 1.00

00:15:59.020 But that doesn't mean that I agree with everything he does because I'm a little nervous about him at times as well.

00:16:07.020 So do you think there's that extra, what did you say?

00:16:10.300 I feel the same way. I feel like I don't have a choice in voting Democrat.

00:16:18.380 I wouldn't, but I could never vote for any of the Democratic candidates.

00:16:22.280 And, again, I do like his politics, and I do agree.

00:16:26.880 I think that it is the second you, even if you don't say I support Trump, if you just say something about supporting or being thankful for something that's happening in the economy, the job market,

00:16:40.400 or, you know, our presence as just as a country, as a sovereign nation, where he's finally standing up to other countries and saying, no, you cannot walk over the United States anymore.

00:16:53.540 We have to start taking care of our own, and we have to respect that we have borders, and we have to respect that, no, China, you can't take over everything.

00:17:03.740 And it's scary. It's very scary to think that it could affect our economy negatively, even doing that.

00:17:10.700 But if you say, I like the direction that is going in, immediately you and Trump are synonymous.

00:17:18.920 And that is a thing, I think, thank you, Nikki, I think that is a huge, huge problem for Donald Trump, and America.

00:17:32.180 It's going to last long after Donald Trump.

00:17:35.860 But it is, it's a real problem, because if it suppresses the vote, it'll be bad.

00:17:44.760 And I'm hoping, you know, I've, I've, I've taken heat from both sides for questioning, and then for, oh, Glenn Beck's in love with him.

00:17:56.520 No, no, I see what he is doing.

00:18:01.080 Some of it, like, you know, the, the, the, it's just, just the way he just, the vitriol sometimes is just unnecessary.

00:18:12.200 And when, when you see that, you're like, ah, come on, man, I don't, what are you doing?

00:18:19.300 But when you see some of the other stuff he's doing, he is the clear guy to, to take the next election.

00:18:26.880 And I'm not voting or doing anything this time to, uh, take away from his vote, because if he doesn't win, what are we stuck with?

00:18:41.080 It is the, I mean, you thought Hillary Clinton was bad.

00:18:44.800 Look at the stated policies of the people who are running.

00:18:49.620 They are literally calling for the end of the free market.

00:18:52.960 That is the end of America.

00:18:55.120 And I'm, I'm really hoping that people will stand up and, uh, at least in the voting booth, uh, and say, I, I just, I don't have any other choice here.

00:19:08.480 I don't have any other choice because there is no one sane that, uh, that is running on the left.

00:19:15.540 All right, let me pause for one minute.

00:19:18.440 Do you know what probably the single greatest enemy of gun rights in this country, it's not a party or an individual.

00:19:25.420 It is ignorance or self-imposed apathy.

00:19:28.500 Having only the basic understanding of what the second amendment is, what it's designed to do and all the laws surrounding it, uh, can be dangerous.

00:19:38.780 If you don't, if you don't know what you're talking about, or if you're just oblivious to it, you never, if you ever have to use a gun in self-defense for you or your family,

00:19:50.100 the legal battle that you're going to face afterwards is crazy.

00:19:55.060 That's why the U.S. Concealed Carry Association exists.

00:19:59.480 Ending today, they've been giving away 17 guns every single day to responsibly armed citizens like you and me.

00:20:06.320 All you have to do is text the word G-L-E-N-N to 87222 and claim your free entries. 0.90

00:20:12.800 The USCCA provides industry-leading, uh, self-defense education training, legal protection for Americans,

00:20:19.440 just like you and me.

00:20:20.800 They believe everyone has a right to be prepared and protected.

00:20:25.360 This offer is not going to last.

00:20:28.200 Neither will the guns.

00:20:29.380 You need to text right now to the number 87222, the word GLEN, G-L-E-N-N. 0.99

00:20:37.080 Confirmation text is going to be sent back to you.

00:20:39.120 That's GLEN, G-L-E-N-N, to the number 87222, 87222. 0.99

00:20:44.880 For more information and rules, go to protectanddefend.com.

00:20:47.880 Standard message and data rates do apply.

00:20:51.300 We pause for 10 seconds.

00:20:52.920 Station ID.

00:21:05.980 Let's say good morning to Stu, our executive producer.

00:21:09.120 Hello, Stu.

00:21:09.780 How are you?

00:21:10.280 Good morning, Stu.

00:21:12.820 Okay.

00:21:13.120 Let me say hello to Stu.

00:21:16.580 What is this, Burns and Allen?

00:21:22.240 There's a couple of things that are going on.

00:21:24.480 The amazing, amazing story about Joe Biden and how he got absolutely everything wrong in

00:21:34.040 this, in this, you know, war story that he told.

00:21:37.680 Are you following this at all?

00:21:38.620 Yeah, it's weird because, I mean, he does seem to have the basic outline of the story

00:21:44.300 right.

00:21:44.900 And it's funny because we're at the point with Joe Biden where if he's got the basic

00:21:49.740 outline of it right, is it even a controversy?

00:21:53.140 I mean, he's usually so wrong that when he gets something like half right, you're like,

00:21:58.380 wow, good work out there, Joe.

00:22:00.620 Good work.

00:22:02.540 It's still, you're still chugging.

00:22:04.500 Keep going, grandpa.

00:22:05.600 It is.

00:22:06.200 You're still chugging.

00:22:06.720 I know.

00:22:07.180 We have this Joe Biden gaff montage that keeps growing by the day.

00:22:11.780 That one's not even in there yet.

00:22:13.380 But it just keeps growing and growing and growing because really every day we could do

00:22:17.800 stories about how he tells a story wrong, how he lies about something, how he, you know,

00:22:22.720 fumbles over his words, how he seems to fall asleep in the middle of a sentence, whatever

00:22:27.120 it is, it's a heck of a, I mean, you want to talk about a weak front runner, seemingly

00:22:32.620 both physically and in the polls.

00:22:35.360 Oh, my gosh.

00:22:36.140 And yet the polls say that they're all leading Donald Trump.

00:22:40.400 We'll get to that coming up.

00:25:09.620 Now, here is the latest from CNN on Biden.

00:25:14.980 I mean, he made a, well, what would you call this?

00:25:19.340 Made up a story, you know, did a story but got all of the facts wrong.

00:25:26.540 I mean, again, on the Joe Biden curve, this is one of the most accurate things he's ever

00:25:31.840 said in his entire life.

00:25:32.940 Right.

00:25:33.240 No, take off the Joe Biden curve.

00:25:35.940 Well, because he actually did.

00:25:37.200 The story's about a soldier.

00:25:38.580 He went to pin a medal on him and the soldier apparently said, you know, I don't want this

00:25:45.820 and don't even give me the medal because, you know, his fighting, his, you know, brother

00:25:52.480 in arms had already died and he didn't feel good about taking it.

00:25:55.880 And it's, you know, an uplifting story about, you know, the character of our military.

00:26:00.180 So all that happened.

00:26:01.960 Like, he did actually do it.

00:26:03.120 He did it when he was a senator, though, not the vice president.

00:26:06.900 And this is something that has been repeated over and over again.

00:26:09.860 The Parkland thing was another example of this where he was not vice president when he

00:26:13.680 said he was vice president meeting with the Parkland kids.

00:26:16.940 Of course, the shooting happened afterwards.

00:26:18.780 If he met with the Parkland kids about the shooting when he was vice president, what

00:26:22.960 did he know and when did he know it?

00:26:24.280 That's what I want to ask.

00:26:25.640 So he is one of these guys that he was plotting.

00:26:30.220 I met with the Parkland kids and plotted this whole thing.

00:26:34.240 He's he is one of those guys that I just, you know, his brain is not the wires aren't

00:26:41.140 connecting.

00:26:42.100 And I think everybody is saying and sees this.

00:26:44.380 Are you saying that I put an abnormal brain into a five foot ten vice president?

00:26:54.580 Is that what you're saying?

00:26:56.120 I don't.

00:26:56.780 Sorry, quoting Mel Brooks.

00:26:58.480 Listen to this.

00:26:59.340 This is Washington Post.

00:27:01.140 One big question facing candidates and voters.

00:27:03.880 Now, this is about Joe Biden from Brian Stelter.

00:27:08.060 One big question facing candidates and voters is whether President Trump's routine

00:27:13.080 falsehoods have changed the standards by which by which other presidential aspirants should

00:27:19.880 be judged.

00:27:21.400 OK, OK, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:27:24.300 I thought this was about Joe Biden.

00:27:26.080 The Washington Post, the revelations about Joe Biden's completely botching, botching a war

00:27:33.820 story.

00:27:34.720 Last Friday in the campaign trail in New Hampshire, the Democratic forerunner told a moving but

00:27:40.360 false story about a Navy captain who, despite his bravery, felt like a failure.

00:27:45.620 The problem is, except this is quoting the Post, except almost every detail in the story

00:27:53.020 seems to be incorrect.

00:27:57.100 More than a they spoke to more than a dozen U.S.

00:28:00.580 troops, their commanders and Biden campaign officials to figure out what actually happened.

00:28:06.260 They they concluded that, quote, Biden jumbled elements of at least three actual events in

00:28:14.880 the story of bravery, compassion and regret that never happened.

00:28:19.860 The bottom line is, in the space of three minutes, Biden got the time period, the location,

00:28:27.160 the heroic act, the type of metal, the military branch and the rank of the recipient wrong,

00:28:34.220 as well as his own role in the ceremony.

00:28:38.480 So bizarre.

00:28:39.460 I mean, because like none of the and this is what's weird about Biden.

00:28:45.020 None of those things make the story better.

00:28:47.520 Right.

00:28:47.960 The story isn't better because he's vice president.

00:28:50.060 The story isn't better because he's in a different location.

00:28:52.460 The story isn't better because it's one type of a metal over another type of a metal.

00:28:55.820 He just doesn't seem to remember anything.

00:28:58.360 And again, it seems to come back to that same thing where there's just like a mental, a normal

00:29:06.700 mental brain function that occurs in your average person is occurring in a different

00:29:14.320 way in Joe Biden's head.

00:29:15.740 And it's I think it's been like that for a while.

00:29:17.980 It just seems to be getting much, much worse.

00:29:20.100 And the important thing here, as far as Democrat voters go, has nothing to do with whether he

00:29:25.100 ever tells another thing that's true in his entire life, whether he ever tells another

00:29:28.880 story that's true.

00:29:29.880 The issue with Democratic voters here is for them to figure out whether he is so far gone,

00:29:36.820 he's not going to be able to win this election.

00:29:38.440 The second the Democrats believe these issues lead to him losing to Donald Trump is when he's

00:29:45.080 no longer the front runner.

00:29:46.580 He's Hillary Clinton.

00:29:48.580 Yeah.

00:29:48.900 The minute they realize he can't, he's Hillary Clinton, they will treat him like Hillary Clinton.

00:29:54.220 Now, Devon Cole from CNN notes, Biden made other several misstatements, not lies, misstatements

00:30:02.340 at the same New Hampshire event last Friday, including one about how many visits he made

00:30:07.440 to Afghanistan and Iraq.

00:30:10.800 But two wrongs don't make a right.

00:30:12.920 Now, listen to this.

00:30:14.580 How do you feel?

00:30:15.620 This is about Biden.

00:30:17.200 How do you feel about how this may relate to how you feel about Donald Trump?

00:30:22.300 Lots of progressives are all up in my Twitter mentions saying this Biden story doesn't matter

00:30:28.680 because Trump is a pathological liar.

00:30:31.460 And lots of conservatives are promoting the Biden story for obvious reasons.

00:30:35.820 Yeah.

00:30:36.400 Here's the obvious reason.

00:30:38.300 I think he is mentally not fit anymore.

00:30:42.680 He's not the same guy that he was four years ago.

00:30:46.600 He is stumbling over his own words.

00:30:49.820 He looks like he's beginning to go senile.

00:30:53.020 And that's not conservatives saying that.

00:30:55.700 That's also a lot of liberals saying that.

00:30:58.820 But he goes on.

00:31:00.240 But the bar should stay high, even if Trump constantly finds a way to go lower and lower.

00:31:07.980 Then he writes, here's the counter argument.

00:31:12.900 Now, let me ask you this.

00:31:14.260 Have you heard them have a counter argument for Donald Trump getting things wrong ever?

00:31:24.100 Right.

00:31:24.580 There's never been an excuse where they're like, look, what he probably meant here was this.

00:31:29.380 They actually jump on it the complete opposite way.

00:31:32.300 They look for anything he says that's the slightest bit off and then act as if he's making a major policy statement.

00:31:39.260 And, you know, this goes back to things like even going back to the very classic example from 2015 where he came down the escalator and said, you know, look, we've got rapists coming across the border.

00:31:51.400 Everybody who listened to that speech could easily tell that what he is talking about is are there some?

00:31:57.560 Yeah.

00:31:57.920 I mean, the answer to that is yes.

00:31:59.060 There have been a lot of criminals that have come across the border.

00:32:01.180 Everybody on earth knows that.

00:32:02.240 He wasn't saying everybody in Mexico is a rapist, right?

00:32:06.680 He's saying he's saying that, look, we have a problem with crime coming across the border.

00:32:10.160 And most people were able to decipher that if they were being honest.

00:32:13.140 But if you go the other way and you just act as if the exact thing he says is a major policy statement, it gives you a lot of clicks.

00:32:21.460 You get a lot of outrage clicks.

00:32:22.800 And that is what the media has decided to do with this president.

00:32:27.220 It's unbelievable.

00:32:29.240 It's unbelievable.

00:32:30.820 They will talk down the economy and they are capable of doing it.

00:32:35.840 They will never give the president the benefit of the doubt.

00:32:40.920 Now, look, if you want to understand this president, you watch what he does, not what he says.

00:32:49.800 They've known this since the 1970s with Donald Trump.

00:32:56.240 Donald Trump is P.T. Barnum.

00:32:59.660 Donald Trump knows how to manipulate the press to be able to get coverage.

00:33:07.300 Now, he should change that, but he's been doing it his whole life.

00:33:13.420 So you're asking him to teach an old dog new tricks.

00:33:17.340 He doesn't feel comfortable when people aren't talking about him.

00:33:22.740 That's the way he's lived his entire life.

00:33:26.480 And we've all known that he's hype.

00:33:29.540 We've all known this.

00:33:31.020 We all knew when we voted for him or, you know, when people voted for him that that's baked in.

00:33:40.000 There's not a single person that I know that really, when it comes down to it at the dead of night, doesn't know that Donald Trump just kind of is loose with the facts, to put it kindly.

00:33:52.420 It's not why they voted for him.

00:33:54.800 They voted for him because he said, I will be your president.

00:33:59.980 And there are so many people in this country that feel like they've just been walked on constantly.

00:34:08.120 They feel as though, you know, I'm called a racist no matter what I do.

00:34:14.540 And I'm not a racist.

00:34:16.380 And I've been called a racist for the last 15 years at least by this media.

00:34:22.980 They're not going to give me a counter argument on what I really said.

00:34:29.640 They're not going to give me the benefit of the doubt ever.

00:34:34.360 They're not going to they're not going to when I say something, they're not going to make it about Barack Obama.

00:34:41.160 You know, I heard a story today from NPR.

00:34:43.840 They were talking about these people who are in the streets saying, stop the coup, stop the coup.

00:34:50.840 Well, I know where stop the coup is coming from.

00:34:54.280 This is the Boris Johnson story where he has suspended Parliament.

00:34:59.480 Well, that's not unusual.

00:35:02.620 It's just two weeks longer than usual.

00:35:05.940 It usually lasts about three weeks.

00:35:08.360 It happens every year.

00:35:10.880 Longer ones happen many times.

00:35:13.860 Once the prime minister takes over a new prime minister, he's asking for two more weeks than three.

00:35:20.500 The Queen approves.

00:35:23.080 Now they are in the streets and they're saying this is a coup.

00:35:27.620 Now, NPR reported this story as Londoners, people gathered in the streets.

00:35:35.100 They're very upset at Boris Johnson and what they claim is a coup.

00:35:39.800 And then they played this whole thing and they talked to one of the people.

00:35:42.920 They never said these are Labour Party members.

00:35:46.580 They never said these are the socialist radicals.

00:35:50.260 They never said any of that.

00:35:52.960 Where if we were on the street, we would immediately be branded as extreme right wing

00:36:00.060 or a small group of people who are very anti-government are protesting in the streets.

00:36:08.000 That's the kind of coverage we get.

00:36:10.980 And that's why people elected Donald Trump.

00:36:14.280 And the more the press continues to harp on him unfairly in many cases, fairly in others.

00:36:23.680 They harp on him and never give him the benefit of the doubt and continue to call anyone who supports him a racist, a homophobe.

00:36:34.540 I don't know how this guy's a homophobe.

00:36:37.080 He's the first guy to run on gay rights.

00:36:42.840 Nobody else.

00:36:43.620 Barack Obama.

00:36:44.580 Nobody else did that.

00:36:46.020 He ran.

00:36:47.520 He had a gay speaker in a prominent position at the GOP convention.

00:36:56.640 How is this guy anti-gay again?

00:36:58.500 I can't figure it out.

00:37:00.000 I can't do the math.

00:37:02.140 Yeah, I think one of the issues here is that to understand Donald Trump,

00:37:06.580 you have to know that he sees the entire world and everything he does every day as a negotiation.

00:37:11.700 So he's constantly in the middle of a negotiation.

00:37:14.060 And you could look at it and you could say, we should listen to every word he says and freak out about it.

00:37:19.140 Or you can look at his actions.

00:37:20.520 For example, with North Korea, he has said both, we are going to bomb the hell out of you and fire and fury is coming. 0.70

00:37:28.620 And also Kim Jong-un is a good guy.

00:37:30.920 And we're going to negotiate and talk and I think we're going to get to a wonderful solution.

00:37:37.300 Well, which one of those is true?

00:37:39.040 I mean, certainly not the fire and fury thing.

00:37:42.000 Donald Trump has a long history of wanting to avoid conflict internationally.

00:37:46.520 And as you've seen in the past few months, when they're firing missile after missile after missile and he's just like, well, look, they're not violating the agreement.

00:37:53.260 Everything's fine.

00:37:54.200 He obviously feels that he would rather avoid conflict.

00:37:58.080 He's trying to negotiate with China.

00:38:00.120 There's another situation, right?

00:38:01.840 He said over and over again, we're going to have a big trade war.

00:38:04.080 And he's also said, you know what, we should go to zero tariffs.

00:38:07.000 Well, which one of those do you believe?

00:38:08.040 You could freak out every time if you're a protectionist and you're like, oh, he's going to go to zero tariffs.

00:38:11.980 Donald Trump's a bad guy.

00:38:12.980 Why is he abandoning his principles on protectionism?

00:38:15.680 Well, he's not.

00:38:16.560 Look at his actions.

00:38:17.600 His actions are he's, you know, it's not a negotiation.

00:38:21.000 He likes tariffs.

00:38:21.960 He's hiked them over and over and over again.

00:38:24.460 Russia is another example, right? 0.98

00:38:26.380 Over and over again, people have said, well, he's way too kind to Russia.

00:38:29.620 He said all these nice things about Russia.

00:38:31.060 What is it has his administration done with Russia?

00:38:34.880 They've been way more harsh on Russia than Barack Obama was over and over and over again.

00:38:40.300 They've sanctioned them and they've done much more pushing back against Russia than Barack Obama ever contemplated.

00:38:46.160 So when you look at those things as a whole, you realize that when Trump is speaking publicly,

00:38:51.100 he's typically looking to to massage a situation into an area where he wants it.

00:38:57.760 Right.

00:38:58.320 And a lot of that has to right to win.

00:39:00.140 And if he believes that winning is the trade war, he'll say what he believes at that time that will give him an advantage in that negotiation.

00:39:11.120 And if you see how he negotiates for real estate deals, he plays hardball and then it's over.

00:39:19.660 And then he's like, that's my best friend.

00:39:22.020 He is just negotiating and no one can see that.

00:39:27.880 No, no, everyone can see that.

00:39:30.060 No one will give him the respect to be able to say the guy is one hell of a negotiator because he scares the hell out of the other side.

00:39:40.900 And you never know.

00:39:43.340 He might do that.

00:39:44.700 I don't know.

00:39:45.740 All right.

00:39:46.040 Back in a minute.

00:39:47.120 Somewhere in America, within the sound of my voice, there is a man riding a horse across a vast range of territory.

00:39:55.040 And every day, this kind of they just kind of blend into the next day.

00:40:01.120 That's the way it is when you're working out in the open and on the range.

00:40:04.220 The sun rises, the sun sets through a filter of plume dust and the sound of thousands of hooves as God's creatures seek forage.

00:40:12.640 This man, he is comfortable top of a horse in this modern age.

00:40:17.600 He works hard, steadily, his eyes never straying too far ahead of the frontier that lies just before him.

00:40:25.480 He's always watching just the nose of the front cattle.

00:40:30.780 His Tachovus boots are comfortable, durable, and they relate to the world of his choosing and his sense of purpose.

00:40:38.620 Perhaps they take on a sense of a former better age.

00:40:43.640 This man's frontier, it's still to tame the West.

00:40:48.160 You know, Tachovus boots are made from the most exotic leathers available.

00:40:51.580 They're handcrafted by world-class boot makers.

00:40:55.560 It takes 200 steps to manufacture a pair of Tachovus boots,

00:40:59.580 and yet their boots cost about half of what a similar boot costs.

00:41:03.360 Check out not only their selection of boots, but all the other fine leather and clothing products that they make.

00:41:09.860 Find your pair at Tachovus.com slash Beck.

00:41:12.600 That's T-E-C-O-V-A-S dot com slash Beck.

00:41:16.140 Tachovus, western wear for your frontier.

00:41:21.420 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

00:41:23.300 We have the one and only Bill O'Reilly giving us his digest.

00:41:42.660 Yeah, just one week from today.

00:41:44.200 It's going to be great.

00:41:45.280 He's fantastic when he comes back from Labor Day weekend vacation.

00:41:48.840 Oh, you're kidding me?

00:41:49.600 He's not on today?

00:41:50.400 No, he's on next week.

00:41:51.300 Oh, I thought he was on.

00:41:53.880 Oh, I miss Bill and his grumpy attitude.

00:41:57.920 Let's bring on an impersonator and have him say things that Bill wouldn't say to get him in trouble. 0.75

00:42:01.540 So he has to come back from vacation early.

00:42:03.720 That's right.

00:42:04.580 He's got to come back from vacation to correct all the lies.

00:42:08.180 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:21.300 You know, I want to start next hour with another AOC beautiful moment.

00:42:27.600 And I think the only way to really understand AOC is if you're hammered, if you're completely intoxicated, then she starts to make sense.

00:42:42.100 Maybe, maybe.

00:42:43.280 I'll prove that point coming up in just a second.

00:42:46.040 Also, we want to talk a little bit about Mike Lee.

00:42:50.060 And, you know, I called Mike Lee, you know, Tucker Carlson came after Mike Lee and exposed him.

00:42:59.140 And I read the story and I'm like, whoa.

00:43:01.400 And I immediately called Mike Lee and said, dude, what is the deal?

00:43:06.680 And he said, I'll tell you what the deal is.

00:43:10.960 Once you understand just even where Tucker Carlson got this story, it's not good.

00:43:18.780 It's just not good.

00:43:20.620 We'll talk about that.

00:43:21.820 Also, the U.S. State Department removes all mentions of Palestinian authority.

00:43:29.160 What?

00:43:29.760 What was that?

00:43:31.240 All coming up in just a moment.

00:43:35.020 Hello, America.

00:43:37.160 It's Friday, which makes AOC a little easier to dismiss.

00:43:46.920 On a Monday, you're like, oh, this is going to suck this week.

00:43:50.720 But on Friday, it's a little easier to laugh.

00:43:53.540 And laugh we shall.

00:45:58.160 Moving on.

00:45:59.060 Back in a second.

00:45:59.760 Okay, could we play the AOC audio that people are confused about capitalism?

00:46:15.820 People talk about, oh, my gosh, like, socialism, this, socialism, that.

00:46:21.160 Let's talk about capitalism, okay?

00:46:23.600 What is capitalism?

00:46:26.160 I think that capitalism and the idea of capitalism gets confused by a lot of people.

00:46:31.840 I think capitalism – a lot of people think about capitalism, and they're like,

00:46:35.540 oh, capitalism, that means businesses, right?

00:46:38.980 That means a free market, right?

00:46:41.380 That means competing for having different products compete on the market, right?

00:46:50.260 That's what capitalism is, right?

00:46:51.780 That's not what capitalism is.

00:46:55.240 It's not?

00:46:55.740 You can have free market economies with mixed economies, which mixed economies exist.

00:47:01.680 You can have free market economies with democratic socialist businesses.

00:47:07.120 What on earth is a democratic socialist business?

00:47:09.740 And a perfect example of that is worker cooperatives.

00:47:13.740 So worker cooperatives are – if you ever go to Vermont or if you go to upstate New York,

00:47:22.760 there will be grocery stores that are employee-owned or they are cooperative,

00:47:26.940 cooperative, which means that people own the shares and workers own the shares in the company.

00:47:33.580 So a more democratically, quote-unquote, socialist business would have workers on the board of the corporation.

00:47:42.640 Instead of –

00:47:43.180 Stop talking or I'm going to be completely hammered because I can't take this without alcohol.

00:47:47.040 So it's really about democracy in the economy.

00:47:50.580 I don't believe in government.

00:47:52.380 It does not mean government owns everything.

00:47:54.140 Socialism does not mean government owns everything.

00:47:57.100 It does exactly mean that.

00:47:59.660 Now, I think she's got a cute little idea.

00:48:07.620 Because if you look at cooperatives, because they do these a lot, like they'll have a team-built store like a deli or something.

00:48:20.120 And I hear about them all the time because I'm reading about how they always go out of business.

00:48:27.540 And you're like, why do they go out of business?

00:48:30.180 Because it doesn't – it doesn't – it doesn't work.

00:48:34.900 That's why.

00:48:35.880 Now, I'm sure – I'm positive that some of them do work.

00:48:43.660 I just don't know where they work.

00:48:47.120 Same thing with socialism.

00:48:48.760 Now, she says, you know, you could have all – you could have all – there's a lot of varieties of socialism.

00:48:58.800 And I looked it up in Webster's Dictionary, and it's true. 0.89

00:49:05.340 There are three kinds of socialism.

00:49:08.100 And I think she does – she's right when she says people get confused.

00:49:15.880 And so, I did my homework, and it makes a lot of sense to me when you go to Webster's and you look up socialism.

00:49:32.060 There's three definitions.

00:49:33.680 One, any various economic and political theory advocating collective or government ownership and people running the means of production and distribution of goods.

00:49:53.760 So, that's the really hardcore socialism kind of thing.

00:50:03.000 That's where – hey, that's not Sweden, I'll tell you that.

00:50:07.220 And so, maybe we can find Sweden under number two.

00:50:11.300 Two, it's a system of society or group living in which there is – well, in which there is no private property.

00:50:26.160 So, that's not sweet.

00:50:28.000 Okay, two has a B and is – so, to be definition.

00:50:33.020 To be a system or condition of society in which the means of production are owned and controlled by the state.

00:50:46.660 Okay, so, I don't really know the difference between one and two because they both suck.

00:50:54.240 It must be number three.

00:50:55.680 Definition of socialism by Marion Webster, who I – I think I dated Marion at one point.

00:51:07.040 A stage of society in Marxist theory transitional between capitalism and communism

00:51:17.460 and distinguished by unequal distribution of goods and pay according to work done.

00:51:27.220 I don't even know what the hell that means, but it's got a spooky word of communism in it.

00:51:32.420 So, it's probably – it's probably – I think AOC is confused.

00:51:39.520 Very confused.

00:51:40.480 This is absolutely outrageous how they are trying to redefine absolutely everything.

00:51:52.280 And she's a dope. 1.00

00:51:56.300 She's an – if I were BU, Boston University, where she went and she got her degree in economics and world politics,

00:52:08.420 I would be so humiliated.

00:52:12.140 I would be watching her.

00:52:13.280 If I was the president of BU, I'd be like,

00:52:16.620 how – does she steal her diploma? 1.00

00:52:23.180 And does she actually ever go here?

00:52:25.500 Because if this is the kind of crap we're turning out,

00:52:29.720 we should all go to prison because she's not very smart. 1.00

00:52:33.520 Maybe we have more co-op liquor stores.

00:52:40.520 That's the way we solve the AOC issue.

00:52:43.760 I love that idea.

00:52:47.000 There is not enough booze for Americans if her kind are running the country. 1.00

00:52:53.500 There's just not enough booze.

00:52:55.100 I love her really innovative point of, you know,

00:52:57.620 there are things called mixed economies, and those exist.

00:53:00.100 They do exist, you know, in every country that's ever existed.

00:53:03.600 Yes, they've all had mixed economies.

00:53:05.660 Like, yes, it's true that, like, we're not pure –

00:53:08.940 Well, no, there's pure communism.

00:53:11.660 I mean, even –

00:53:12.160 Well, no, because –

00:53:13.100 Even that.

00:53:13.760 They kind of turn into – you know, there's a lot of oligarchs in communism.

00:53:19.200 And there's also black markets that pop up like crazy. 0.96

00:53:22.400 There's no way to have a pure example of these systems.

00:53:25.860 These are theoretical systems.

00:53:27.380 It's interesting, though, that she applies the purity only to capitalism, right?

00:53:33.360 Like, she's trying to make this case in which she can be socialist

00:53:37.960 but not mean the definition out of the dictionary that you just talked about.

00:53:42.940 But on the other hand, capitalism, well, that's not what you're thinking about

00:53:46.740 when you're talking about the free market.

00:53:48.300 Well, that's a massive element of what capitalism is.

00:53:51.320 And the thing that's missing out of capitalism are the policies that you're pushing for.

00:53:55.680 The things like, you know, Medicare for all and the Green New Deal 0.88

00:53:59.660 and various other programs dating back, you know, half a century.

00:54:03.940 But what I love is she says, you know, what we're talking about here is, you know,

00:54:09.880 a mixed economy.

00:54:12.560 Socialism does not mean that the government runs everything.

00:54:16.320 I just gave you the three definitions of socialism in the dictionary,

00:54:22.220 and all of them include ownership of the, you know, of the production lines.

00:54:29.620 Your own Green Deal job says it's a fundamental transformation of this economy, 0.96

00:54:37.540 and it talks about the industries that will have to be taken over by the government.

00:54:43.780 And how is that not the textbook definition of socialism?

00:54:50.140 Yeah, she's trying to have... 1.00

00:54:51.980 The one with the gulags and stuff.

00:54:54.300 She's trying to have this little middle ground, which is like, 0.99

00:54:56.800 well, what do you like?

00:54:58.200 That's socialism.

00:54:59.760 What don't you like?

00:55:00.720 That's capitalism.

00:55:02.160 That is the extent of her knowledge on this topic.

00:55:04.560 And, again, I think BU, when they gave her the diploma,

00:55:09.700 had already gone to the co-op liquor store a few too many times.

00:55:13.880 Because it does not seem to be that she understands any of these issues.

00:55:17.720 All right.

00:55:18.480 I've sobered up a little bit, and I want to take you to another story.

00:55:23.000 This is from Real Clear Politics.

00:55:25.120 On his August 20th Fox News show, Tucker Carlson detailed how Senate Antitrust Subcommittee Chairperson Mike Lee

00:55:33.920 transformed one of Google's harshest critics into one of his most loyal defenders faster than you can say monopoly.

00:55:43.080 From 2011 to 2015, Lee pressed the Federal Trade Commission to pursue antitrust violations against Google for its Internet search dominance,

00:55:52.780 grilled its CEO, Eric Schmidt, for the company's abuses,

00:55:57.200 and supported the European Union's investigation into the search engine giant.

00:56:02.480 After the FTC slapped Google on the wrist,

00:56:05.320 he said he would investigate the Obama White Houses in proper interference with the investigation.

00:56:11.100 But now, according to Tucker Carlson, he has done a complete 180.

00:56:16.700 As a possible explanation for the flip-flop,

00:56:19.120 Carlson pointed to investments in Utah by Google and Facebook,

00:56:27.860 along with Google's fundraising for Lee.

00:56:30.620 The two-term senator declined an invitation to discuss the issues on the show.

00:56:36.940 Okay.

00:56:38.740 Now, let me give you this from Mike Lee.

00:56:45.580 Mike is a friend of mine.

00:56:47.200 Mike and I have spent lots of time recently talking about Google,

00:56:53.200 talking about how do you use the law without bastardizing the law,

00:57:01.540 without creating a situation which, at least as a constitutional conservative,

00:57:07.780 I don't want, I don't want the government to overstep its bounds.

00:57:12.540 Once we do this, it's just going to happen over and over again.

00:57:18.440 And Mike doesn't want to overstep the bounds, yada yada.

00:57:22.080 So, I've been talking to him one-on-one recently about Google.

00:57:28.060 I am constantly talking to him about,

00:57:30.920 look at what Google's doing here, look at what Google's doing there.

00:57:33.900 I have set up conversations with him and others,

00:57:38.800 or at least offered those conversations, whether they happen or not, I don't know.

00:57:43.860 So, he's passionate about it, and I know it.

00:57:47.720 He knows what's going on.

00:57:50.680 So, I immediately, yesterday when I saw that story,

00:57:53.620 I immediately called Mike and said,

00:57:56.280 dude, what is this about?

00:58:01.220 He sent this to me.

00:58:03.400 Let me just read it to you.

00:58:07.000 The Tom Steyer-funded left-wing attack group Crew,

00:58:12.280 which has sued President Trump more than 175 times,

00:58:15.440 recently spun off a new attack entity

00:58:20.440 devoted to attacking conservatives over technology issues.

00:58:26.280 This new entity from Tom Steyer

00:58:29.180 attacked Senator Mike Lee

00:58:31.240 for allegedly changing his position on antitrust laws

00:58:34.820 due to lengthy, multifaceted campaign

00:58:38.020 by Google and other big technology companies.

00:58:41.420 Now, let's just dissect this as we go along.

00:58:45.560 Do you notice anything about that, Stu?

00:58:48.160 Anything important stand out to you?

00:58:51.600 Well, usually there's not a lot of conservative attacks

00:58:54.960 that are foundationally based on a Tom Steyer attack group.

00:59:01.520 Thank you.

00:59:02.780 Thank you.

00:59:03.720 So, let's start there.

00:59:05.220 I'm going to take a one-minute break,

00:59:06.760 and then just give us a little look at...

00:59:08.860 Tom Steyer's more than just a candidate

00:59:11.700 who's spent millions and millions of dollars

00:59:14.500 to become president

00:59:15.720 and just has been excluded from the debate.

00:59:19.000 He's more than just a two-time loser.

00:59:22.060 He's a very powerful guy.

00:59:25.020 And Stu will explain who Tom Steyer is

00:59:27.680 coming up in just a second.

00:59:30.260 And then I'll tell you what Mike Lee

00:59:32.120 was really saying and really doing

00:59:35.640 coming up in just a second.

00:59:38.400 So, yesterday, we're moving furniture

00:59:51.200 and all kinds of stuff.

00:59:53.100 Oh, that is so good for your back.

00:59:56.800 That is so good for your body.

00:59:58.060 You just wake up the next morning,

00:59:59.500 you're like,

01:00:00.580 ooh, I feel good.

01:00:04.320 Except the opposite is true.

01:00:06.640 That's why you should maybe think about relief factor.

01:00:09.540 Relief factor reduces the inflammation in your body.

01:00:13.480 And it's the inflammation

01:00:14.360 that not only causes pain in your body,

01:00:17.440 it is also just so detrimental

01:00:20.420 to your life on so many levels.

01:00:24.100 Inflammation is kind of the bad guy.

01:00:27.260 Relief factor reduces that inflammation.

01:00:30.480 And we're talking about not only just like,

01:00:32.340 hey, I moved into a new house

01:00:34.680 and decided to do it all myself.

01:00:37.320 Yeah, you can go from that kind of pain

01:00:39.680 to I'm in chronic pain every single day

01:00:43.940 and I can't live this way anymore.

01:00:46.400 Relief factor works for 70% of the people who try it.

01:00:50.280 It works for me.

01:00:51.880 They offer a quick start trial.

01:00:55.480 It's a three-week trial.

01:00:56.900 Cost you 20 bucks

01:00:57.960 to see if it works for you.

01:01:00.420 If it works for you, order more.

01:01:03.380 70% of the people that order the quick start

01:01:07.160 go on to order more every single month.

01:01:11.580 It's relief factor.

01:01:13.200 Relief factor.com.

01:01:14.640 Call them 800-583-84.

01:01:17.500 800-583-84.

01:01:19.860 Relief factor.com.

01:01:22.260 10 seconds.

01:01:23.360 Station ID.

01:01:23.920 So Tom Steyer has funded

01:01:35.480 a left-wing attack group, CRU,

01:01:38.240 which has sued President Trump

01:01:40.360 more than 175 times.

01:01:42.300 Well, they recently started another attack group.

01:01:45.820 This new entity is going after Mike Lee

01:01:49.040 for allegedly changing his position

01:01:51.960 on antitrust laws due to a lengthy,

01:01:54.220 multifaceted campaign by Google

01:01:56.180 and other big technology companies.

01:01:59.260 Now, Tucker Carlson, for some reason,

01:02:02.280 decided to use the information

01:02:04.840 from this attack group funded by Tom Steyer,

01:02:09.180 a Democratic candidate.

01:02:11.380 But he's more than just a Democratic candidate.

01:02:15.160 Stu, can you give me some highlights?

01:02:16.740 You know, the guy's a billionaire hedge fund manager.

01:02:19.000 We have something coming up in the next week or two

01:02:21.040 on the TV show, kind of profiling him.

01:02:23.860 And we can go into that a little bit more.

01:02:25.940 But he's, you know, made tons and tons of money.

01:02:30.540 A billionaire hedge fund guy

01:02:32.940 that wound up, you know, turning on capitalism

01:02:35.140 and deciding it's a terrible thing.

01:02:36.980 He's very big in the anti, you know,

01:02:42.340 anti-business sort of global warming world, right?

01:02:45.520 He's a big funder of climate change causes.

01:02:50.500 In fact, he's a bigger funder than like a George Soros.

01:02:53.380 People think of Soros as the biggest guy

01:02:55.060 because he's the best known name.

01:02:56.580 But Steyer actually dumped a lot more money

01:02:58.580 into this recently.

01:03:00.120 He then launched almost immediately

01:03:02.640 after President Trump's election,

01:03:05.100 a effort to impeach him

01:03:08.340 and started a group designated to do this.

01:03:12.020 If you've turned on MSNBC or CNN

01:03:13.840 over the past couple of years,

01:03:15.480 first of all, what happened?

01:03:16.880 Second of all, you probably saw a commercial

01:03:18.660 from Tom Steyer looking very nicely

01:03:20.760 at the camera with a fire behind him

01:03:22.340 telling you why you should impeach President Trump.

01:03:25.020 He put tons and tons of money into this.

01:03:28.140 The outcome of that, of course,

01:03:29.800 you may know Donald Trump's still in office.

01:03:32.640 However, Tom Steyer was able to get an email list

01:03:35.180 of about 7 million names

01:03:36.900 where he is now fundraising

01:03:38.680 for his presidential campaign off of that.

01:03:41.580 He's saying he's going to spend

01:03:43.280 about $100 million on his campaign

01:03:46.060 to be president.

01:03:48.040 He did not qualify for the September debate,

01:03:51.960 as you point out, Glenn,

01:03:52.660 but he most likely will for the next one.

01:03:54.820 So he will probably get on stage

01:03:56.680 unless they do something

01:03:57.460 as far as changing the rules

01:03:58.840 for the October debate.

01:04:01.360 So basically, he is a George Soros,

01:04:05.400 except much more cloaked.

01:04:09.320 He is, he's the guy in the background.

01:04:13.380 He's the guy the emperor was working for.

01:04:17.360 You know what I'm saying?

01:04:19.200 Oh, you don't?

01:04:20.700 Yes, because they never talk about him.

01:04:24.280 Tom Steyer is in the background

01:04:26.800 funding a lot of these things like Soros.

01:04:30.020 So that's where this is coming from

01:04:32.380 in the first place,

01:04:33.260 and Tucker Carlson picked up on that.

01:04:34.960 But then, Mike Lee would like to clarify

01:04:38.960 a few things.

01:04:40.920 And when you hear why he has,

01:04:43.280 not flip-flopped,

01:04:44.460 why he's made the statements he has,

01:04:46.620 it makes perfect sense.

01:04:48.740 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:04:51.220 All right.

01:05:00.480 So, Mr. Beck,

01:05:02.340 you're going to tell us,

01:05:03.260 our sponsor, of course, here

01:05:04.720 in this half hour.

01:05:07.060 It is Goldline.

01:05:08.440 Yesterday, we talked about recessions

01:05:10.180 and why they seem to hit

01:05:11.380 every seven to ten years.

01:05:13.280 We have talked a lot about

01:05:14.860 the economy this week,

01:05:16.860 and I have to tell you,

01:05:17.840 if you believe what I'm talking to you about,

01:05:21.900 if you really listened this week,

01:05:24.640 your eyes were opened up, hopefully,

01:05:26.900 and you see that there are many,

01:05:29.440 many forces that would like

01:05:31.780 to collapse this whole system,

01:05:33.980 and we have to be,

01:05:35.380 the only ones that can really save it

01:05:38.060 are the American people.

01:05:40.340 You need to diversify,

01:05:42.840 and please consider Goldline.

01:05:45.440 Gold has just hit a six-year high,

01:05:47.840 I think it's going to continue to grow.

01:05:50.720 I buy it not as an investment.

01:05:52.780 I buy it as an insurance against insanity.

01:05:56.820 I want you to do your homework,

01:05:58.160 and please call them now,

01:05:59.500 866-GOLDLINE,

01:06:01.140 1-866-GOLDLINE.

01:06:03.880 Get some of your money in gold, please.

01:06:13.840 All the conservative voices in one place.

01:06:17.840 Welcome to the program.

01:06:23.820 This is the Glenn Beck program,

01:06:25.200 and I want to make clear

01:06:26.820 that this program has a very long

01:06:30.380 and extensive list of having no friends,

01:06:35.280 and a long record of that,

01:06:37.020 and a long list of people that hate my guts

01:06:39.340 that used to be my friend.

01:06:40.900 I still, you know, in many cases,

01:06:44.380 still hold them as friends.

01:06:46.320 I just can't support them anymore

01:06:48.560 because they've flip-flopped or whatever,

01:06:51.740 and that usually happens,

01:06:53.860 and quite honestly,

01:06:55.960 because, as Orrin Hatch said at one point,

01:07:01.040 which should have said something about Orrin Hatch,

01:07:05.120 to Orrin Hatch,

01:07:06.020 I've never seen a man enter this chamber

01:07:09.580 and leave a better man.

01:07:13.280 So it's just a matter of time

01:07:15.340 before they just, you know,

01:07:17.340 are worn down by the battery acid of politics.

01:07:20.880 But one guy who I do not think

01:07:23.940 has changed one bit

01:07:26.420 is Mike Lee.

01:07:28.040 I have not seen,

01:07:29.820 and I watch him

01:07:31.120 because I've told him,

01:07:33.600 Mike, if you go dark,

01:07:35.580 I'm just going to have to

01:07:37.800 just get out of this business

01:07:40.280 because if you go dark,

01:07:41.680 there's no chance.

01:07:42.820 I mean, you have the best chance

01:07:44.640 of being that beacon,

01:07:46.380 and we have to have somebody

01:07:48.460 that is educated on the Constitution

01:07:53.500 and is reasonable, rational,

01:07:56.600 isn't a firebomber,

01:07:58.840 but holds true to that Constitution.

01:08:02.760 And so I'm watching him

01:08:04.000 because I will tell him,

01:08:06.740 and if it means that I destroy a friendship,

01:08:11.440 well, then I destroy a friendship.

01:08:13.860 I've done it before.

01:08:15.040 In fact, I do it every time

01:08:16.580 with everyone in Washington

01:08:17.980 because they always go dark.

01:08:24.240 Mike Lee has not,

01:08:25.580 and so I was really disturbed

01:08:27.580 when I read this story

01:08:29.280 about him flip-flopping in Google

01:08:31.000 and there's, you know,

01:08:32.220 Google payouts and everything else.

01:08:34.300 In looking at this,

01:08:35.720 first of all, it's Tom Steyer.

01:08:37.880 So he is a,

01:08:39.000 he's a George Soros type

01:08:40.640 that is funding this attack

01:08:43.460 on Mike Lee.

01:08:44.960 Tucker Carlson goes on

01:08:47.280 and he does this big,

01:08:49.720 Mike Lee is a flip-flopper.

01:08:51.140 Well, he's not a flip-flopper

01:08:53.580 if you do your homework.

01:08:56.720 Mike Lee,

01:08:57.520 and there's a big explanation,

01:09:00.680 a really good explanation

01:09:02.800 of what Mike is doing,

01:09:05.200 and you can find it

01:09:06.200 at lee.senate.gov,

01:09:10.000 and you can read the article

01:09:12.160 for yourself.

01:09:13.000 I urge you to read this article.

01:09:15.020 The story is,

01:09:19.360 is that he flip-flopped

01:09:20.680 because they did,

01:09:21.980 you know,

01:09:22.240 Google is all over,

01:09:25.520 you know,

01:09:26.200 cooking the books,

01:09:27.220 if you will,

01:09:27.860 on their search engine,

01:09:29.260 and Mike Lee is very well aware of it.

01:09:31.700 I've spoken to him multiple times

01:09:33.720 over the last,

01:09:34.600 just last couple of months,

01:09:36.580 for sure,

01:09:37.040 but it's an ongoing conversation.

01:09:40.420 I know he's aware of it,

01:09:41.980 and he is trying to find the ways

01:09:44.120 that are legal,

01:09:45.680 constitutional,

01:09:46.640 that don't cut any corners

01:09:48.940 because Mike knows

01:09:50.500 once you start undermining

01:09:52.400 the Constitution in any way,

01:09:56.180 you are going to turn it

01:09:58.380 all over to politicians,

01:09:59.940 and they will just destroy everything. 0.62

01:10:02.820 So I invite you to read that

01:10:05.700 at Mike Lee's website

01:10:07.240 and really read it

01:10:08.780 and try to understand

01:10:10.320 what Mike is saying,

01:10:11.220 but let me just read

01:10:12.260 a couple of the emails

01:10:13.500 that I got from Mike yesterday.

01:10:16.040 He said,

01:10:17.120 Glenn,

01:10:17.880 we have to resist the impulse

01:10:20.120 to conclude

01:10:21.360 that because big tech

01:10:23.560 does some really bad things

01:10:25.620 that we don't like,

01:10:27.240 that that means

01:10:28.120 that antitrust laws

01:10:30.020 hold a remedy.

01:10:31.080 He says that

01:10:34.220 what's happening right now

01:10:35.640 is politicians,

01:10:38.940 and this is a movement

01:10:40.340 from the left,

01:10:41.980 that what they really want to do

01:10:43.660 is change the way

01:10:44.920 we do antitrust.

01:10:47.840 Antitrust,

01:10:48.720 he has made it very clear

01:10:50.660 for 10 years

01:10:52.240 that antitrust

01:10:54.240 should be about

01:10:55.240 consumer welfare,

01:10:57.060 not politics.

01:10:58.380 So if Google,

01:11:01.340 his complaint on Google

01:11:02.540 is they're stacking the deck

01:11:05.280 and they're pointing you

01:11:07.500 to things that they own,

01:11:10.200 things that they get kickbacks on,

01:11:13.020 as well as politics,

01:11:14.820 where you can't find the truth,

01:11:17.020 and that is costing you

01:11:18.900 more money.

01:11:21.120 And so antitrust

01:11:22.340 must be about

01:11:24.160 the consumer

01:11:25.420 and consumers' welfare.

01:11:28.880 But there is this movement now

01:11:31.120 that the left

01:11:32.200 is trying to change

01:11:33.380 the antitrust law

01:11:34.500 so that consumer welfare

01:11:36.220 is no longer

01:11:37.580 the governing standard.

01:11:39.380 It seeks to jettison

01:11:41.440 the modern evidence-based focus

01:11:43.900 on protecting competition

01:11:46.100 in favor

01:11:47.020 of a long-abandoned approach

01:11:49.140 that bases antitrust enforcement

01:11:51.060 on purely political objectives.

01:11:54.680 So Mike writes to me

01:11:55.920 and says,

01:11:56.820 look,

01:11:57.100 we have to hold this back.

01:12:00.840 We can't let

01:12:01.820 the antitrust laws

01:12:03.240 be used by politicians

01:12:04.980 even if we agree.

01:12:07.760 He said,

01:12:08.200 I fear what precedent

01:12:09.480 this might set

01:12:10.480 where political lines

01:12:11.660 have been drawn

01:12:12.440 in a business setting.

01:12:15.200 Then he points me

01:12:16.520 to the website

01:12:17.820 to read more about it,

01:12:19.660 and I have.

01:12:21.080 And he writes back

01:12:22.160 and he says,

01:12:23.140 this is the problem

01:12:24.300 with the hatchet job

01:12:25.720 that is being done

01:12:26.720 right now.

01:12:27.740 And I assume

01:12:28.740 that is not only

01:12:30.780 by Tom Steyer

01:12:31.900 and the left,

01:12:33.220 but also

01:12:33.720 I would put

01:12:34.640 Tucker Carlson

01:12:35.560 into that category.

01:12:38.220 He says,

01:12:39.400 Tucker hasn't explained

01:12:40.900 what it is

01:12:41.780 that I've done wrong,

01:12:43.360 just that I am wrong

01:12:44.720 and that I flip-flopped.

01:12:46.580 He doesn't acknowledge

01:12:47.600 that I'm a lawmaker

01:12:49.120 and I am speaking,

01:12:51.700 or he is framing it

01:12:54.040 that I am speaking

01:12:55.080 as if I were

01:12:56.300 a law enforcement officer.

01:12:58.300 I'm not a law enforcement officer.

01:13:01.480 So what do I do?

01:13:03.200 I'm open to ideas,

01:13:05.080 but don't believe

01:13:06.680 existing antitrust laws

01:13:08.620 provide a remedy

01:13:09.900 for what people hate.

01:13:12.580 And they believe,

01:13:13.860 and I believe

01:13:14.480 there are risks

01:13:15.220 trying to shoehorn

01:13:16.660 something into

01:13:17.720 existing law.

01:13:19.920 This is one of the

01:13:20.940 conversations that

01:13:21.720 Mike and I had

01:13:22.500 over lunch

01:13:23.140 about four weeks ago.

01:13:25.060 He's like,

01:13:25.560 Glenn,

01:13:26.080 you know,

01:13:26.700 it seems so easy.

01:13:28.560 He said,

01:13:29.580 but you have to understand

01:13:31.340 everything is a can of worms.

01:13:33.580 And if you open it up,

01:13:36.620 you better be sure

01:13:38.480 that that solves the problem

01:13:41.400 and doesn't create

01:13:42.860 other problems.

01:13:44.540 So this is not about,

01:13:46.640 you know,

01:13:47.240 campaign donations

01:13:48.480 or Google moving into the state

01:13:51.140 or investing in his state.

01:13:52.460 It has nothing to do with that.

01:13:54.520 And if it does,

01:13:55.740 if it ever did

01:13:56.920 or if it ever does,

01:13:59.500 you will hear it from me.

01:14:01.080 And I will have,

01:14:02.420 you've heard me do it before.

01:14:05.000 I will have those people on.

01:14:07.460 And as I told Mike,

01:14:09.320 the very first time we spoke,

01:14:12.400 if you're not exactly

01:14:14.280 what you say you are,

01:14:16.100 if you start fooling around,

01:14:18.400 I will become

01:14:19.420 your worst stinking nightmare.

01:14:22.240 You have heard me do it before.

01:14:25.560 I'll do it with Mike Lee.

01:14:27.460 But this is trumped up bullcrap

01:14:31.680 that is coming from the left.

01:14:34.120 Do not be fooled by it.

01:14:36.520 Yeah, it's possible

01:14:37.540 Tucker Carlson could try

01:14:39.100 to get some additional perspective

01:14:41.140 from Tucker Carlson

01:14:42.500 from 2009 to 2015,

01:14:44.140 where he was a much more

01:14:46.760 libertarian guy,

01:14:48.040 a guy who,

01:14:49.140 I mean, those are literally

01:14:49.980 the dates he was a fellow

01:14:51.400 at the Cato Institute.

01:14:53.260 2009 to 2015.

01:14:55.300 Think for a second

01:14:56.440 about that era.

01:14:57.840 Like 2009,

01:14:58.960 right at the beginning

01:14:59.720 with Obama,

01:15:00.400 when the libertarian,

01:15:01.320 the Tea Party thing rises,

01:15:02.820 right?

01:15:03.360 2015, Donald Trump

01:15:04.520 comes down the escalator.

01:15:06.260 This is, you know,

01:15:07.620 Tucker seems to be

01:15:08.620 just wait a few years, Mike,

01:15:10.120 and ask Tucker again.

01:15:11.380 And Tucker will be

01:15:12.120 more than happy

01:15:12.820 to understand

01:15:13.600 that maybe businesses

01:15:14.560 shouldn't be forcing,

01:15:16.100 be forced by government

01:15:17.420 and retrofit into laws,

01:15:19.720 whether you like it or not.

01:15:20.900 You might think,

01:15:21.540 I like,

01:15:22.060 I do not like a lot of the things

01:15:23.640 that big tech does.

01:15:24.720 But there is a temptation

01:15:26.180 and Tucker is one

01:15:27.460 of the big proponents

01:15:28.820 of this theory

01:15:29.480 to take the apparatus

01:15:33.820 of the government

01:15:34.640 and start doing things

01:15:35.880 we like with it.

01:15:37.280 Whether the process is there,

01:15:38.780 whether the law allows

01:15:39.780 for it or not.

01:15:40.680 And that is not,

01:15:41.340 it's a temptation.

01:15:42.340 It will not work out.

01:15:42.900 It's a progressive temptation,

01:15:44.820 right?

01:15:45.120 I know.

01:15:45.980 We've seen this over

01:15:46.860 and over again

01:15:47.240 with Republicans

01:15:47.860 who embrace,

01:15:48.680 who embrace sort of this

01:15:51.260 bigger government

01:15:52.740 progressive idea

01:15:53.800 when they're in office

01:15:54.620 because, you know what,

01:15:55.720 we like these things.

01:15:57.400 Yes, we know maybe

01:15:58.160 the government

01:15:58.600 shouldn't be doing

01:15:59.260 all of them,

01:15:59.860 but in this particular case,

01:16:01.640 it's something we want,

01:16:02.960 so therefore we do it.

01:16:05.760 Look,

01:16:06.380 there's a lot of things

01:16:07.640 that I would love to do

01:16:08.340 with the government power.

01:16:09.480 Everyone wants to be king,

01:16:10.480 but we don't have a king.

01:16:12.640 There's a good reason we don't

01:16:13.880 and the idea that

01:16:15.560 we are supposed to now

01:16:16.460 just jump into,

01:16:18.320 I mean, you know,

01:16:18.840 he's every night,

01:16:19.580 he's on television

01:16:20.380 telling us how we need to,

01:16:21.920 how the guidance

01:16:23.840 of letting the market work

01:16:25.620 was wrong.

01:16:26.880 It was, I mean,

01:16:27.760 this is a guy who was a...

01:16:28.880 He's wrong.

01:16:29.160 He's wrong on that.

01:16:30.020 I agree.

01:16:30.560 However...

01:16:30.880 And who is this guy?

01:16:32.000 It was at the Cato Friggin Institute.

01:16:33.280 Okay, I'll tell you who this,

01:16:33.940 I'll tell you who this guy is.

01:16:36.200 This is a guy

01:16:37.040 who is,

01:16:38.680 quite honestly,

01:16:39.680 listening to the people.

01:16:41.500 And I'm not going to assign

01:16:42.740 motives for this

01:16:44.060 because some people think

01:16:46.460 this is really important.

01:16:48.420 Our founders did not.

01:16:50.680 But he is listening

01:16:52.760 to the pain of the people.

01:16:55.420 And so what he's saying is

01:16:56.780 we have to fix these things

01:16:59.040 at all costs.

01:17:00.640 And that will only end up

01:17:02.540 with more pain

01:17:03.800 because we will go

01:17:04.920 even further away

01:17:06.580 from the Constitution.

01:17:07.780 And so he is

01:17:10.160 on the good side.

01:17:11.560 Tucker is,

01:17:12.680 I think,

01:17:13.980 in touch

01:17:14.780 with the American people.

01:17:17.000 He is listening to them.

01:17:19.180 He is hearing it.

01:17:20.640 He has become a populist.

01:17:22.740 And you can become

01:17:23.800 very cynical about that.

01:17:25.480 And I'm not going to

01:17:26.700 sign any intent

01:17:28.500 behind Tucker Carlson.

01:17:30.780 However,

01:17:32.100 he is voicing

01:17:33.480 the concerns

01:17:34.880 of the American people.

01:17:36.220 I just think that he is

01:17:37.940 he's abandoned

01:17:39.480 every principle

01:17:40.720 he's ever had

01:17:41.840 to do that.

01:17:43.320 And I think it's dangerous.

01:17:45.000 And I think you're right,

01:17:45.520 though.

01:17:45.620 I mean,

01:17:45.860 it's not,

01:17:46.640 I'm not assigning

01:17:47.280 anything negative.

01:17:48.940 He may just change his mind,

01:17:50.260 right?

01:17:50.420 A lot of people have

01:17:51.220 over the years.

01:17:51.780 That's totally fine.

01:17:52.640 But this is in the context

01:17:53.860 of him essentially

01:17:55.100 accusing Mike Lee

01:17:56.240 of being bought off

01:17:57.020 by Google.

01:17:58.000 Like,

01:17:58.440 you can't,

01:17:58.920 you can't have

01:17:59.840 your history

01:18:00.620 and expect no one

01:18:03.220 to assign some negative

01:18:04.340 motivation for it

01:18:05.860 when you're assigning

01:18:06.680 a negative motivation

01:18:07.600 to Mike Lee,

01:18:08.540 a guy who's stood

01:18:09.320 in the same place

01:18:10.060 the entire time.

01:18:11.620 I mean,

01:18:11.900 this guy has been

01:18:12.700 consistent with his principles

01:18:13.960 from day one.

01:18:15.900 And I just,

01:18:17.140 it's just hard to take.

01:18:18.700 It's hard to take

01:18:19.560 from someone

01:18:20.480 who has changed

01:18:21.340 broadly

01:18:22.540 over the years.

01:18:23.780 And there's nothing

01:18:24.640 wrong with changing.

01:18:25.740 A lot of people

01:18:26.460 have done it.

01:18:27.120 There's nothing wrong

01:18:28.120 with it.

01:18:28.700 But you can't sit here

01:18:29.600 and accuse everybody

01:18:30.640 that you disagree with

01:18:31.780 of being motivated

01:18:32.920 by grift

01:18:34.620 when,

01:18:35.720 you know,

01:18:36.300 you've changed

01:18:37.380 just as much

01:18:38.180 and much,

01:18:38.760 much more

01:18:39.220 than Mike Lee.

01:18:40.100 I mean,

01:18:40.240 it's not even

01:18:40.680 remotely close.

01:18:43.060 All right.

01:18:43.820 Back with more

01:18:44.780 news of the day.

01:18:46.120 Bill O'Reilly

01:18:46.640 is off this week

01:18:48.260 because of Labor Day.

01:18:49.380 He'll be joining us

01:18:50.760 again next week.

01:18:52.060 Just a reminder,

01:18:52.920 I'll be in Los Angeles

01:18:54.100 Monday.

01:18:55.960 I'm actually

01:18:56.540 hosting the Dave Rubin

01:18:58.520 show.

01:18:59.120 He goes away

01:19:00.000 for about 40 days,

01:19:02.080 30,

01:19:02.420 40 days every year.

01:19:04.280 And then he comes back

01:19:05.900 and he has usually

01:19:07.320 really great perspective.

01:19:09.380 And he asked me

01:19:10.480 if I would host

01:19:12.020 his return

01:19:12.860 and,

01:19:13.760 you know,

01:19:15.040 probe into what

01:19:16.160 he has found

01:19:17.500 with his perspective

01:19:18.860 this time.

01:19:20.260 And so I'll be doing that.

01:19:21.860 I think we're taping

01:19:22.640 that on Tuesday.

01:19:23.460 I don't know

01:19:23.820 when it runs.

01:19:24.340 It may run Tuesday.

01:19:25.940 So we'll be out

01:19:26.800 in Los Angeles

01:19:27.380 next week.

01:19:28.080 pray for me.

01:19:30.880 And then back

01:19:31.920 in Texas

01:19:32.720 at the end

01:19:34.260 of the week.

01:19:35.140 More on the news

01:19:36.040 coming up

01:19:36.500 in just a second.

01:19:37.640 If there was

01:19:38.380 someone out there

01:19:39.120 with

01:19:40.420 with the ability

01:19:42.240 to pretend

01:19:42.860 to be you

01:19:44.080 for just a little

01:19:44.920 while,

01:19:45.600 how much damage

01:19:46.980 do you think

01:19:47.760 that they could

01:19:48.720 inflict?

01:19:50.000 What could they do

01:19:50.920 to your bank account?

01:19:52.100 To your savings?

01:19:53.620 How about your credit card?

01:19:55.600 Would that even

01:19:56.520 be intact

01:19:57.760 when someone

01:19:58.580 got done

01:19:59.140 playing around

01:19:59.760 with your identity?

01:20:01.200 Your credit?

01:20:03.020 Identity theft

01:20:03.780 is no joke

01:20:04.840 and it has become

01:20:05.540 more and more

01:20:06.240 prevalent in our world

01:20:07.380 as we develop

01:20:08.480 new and better

01:20:09.540 technology.

01:20:10.780 Now,

01:20:10.940 the wisest move

01:20:12.140 is always

01:20:13.040 to protect

01:20:13.680 your identity

01:20:14.300 online

01:20:15.000 as much

01:20:15.600 as you possibly

01:20:16.240 can.

01:20:17.080 Now,

01:20:17.240 the good news

01:20:17.820 is that there

01:20:18.840 is LifeLock.

01:20:20.160 LifeLock detects

01:20:21.240 a wide range

01:20:22.340 of identity threats

01:20:23.380 and keeps you informed

01:20:25.020 if and when

01:20:26.160 someone out there

01:20:27.000 is trying to get

01:20:27.840 a hold of

01:20:28.440 or sell

01:20:29.200 your information

01:20:30.020 online.

01:20:31.980 Don't find out

01:20:33.080 what it's like

01:20:33.900 when somebody

01:20:34.440 pretends to be you.

01:20:36.240 Get LifeLock.

01:20:37.540 No one can prevent

01:20:38.380 all identity theft

01:20:39.240 or monitor

01:20:39.620 all transactions

01:20:40.340 at all businesses,

01:20:41.300 but LifeLock

01:20:42.020 can see the threats

01:20:42.980 that you might

01:20:43.840 miss on your own.

01:21:01.300 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:21:15.440 Hello, America.

01:21:16.860 It's Friday.

01:21:17.700 Stu, have you seen

01:21:20.420 Have you seen

01:21:21.160 The Peanut Butter Falcon yet?

01:21:23.120 I have not.

01:21:23.820 I've heard really good

01:21:24.340 things about it, though.

01:21:25.340 It's a movie.

01:21:26.160 If you don't know,

01:21:26.640 I guess, would you call it

01:21:28.180 sort of like

01:21:28.580 independent art house-ish

01:21:29.980 type of thing?

01:21:31.400 It's not a major,

01:21:32.140 major movie,

01:21:32.920 but it's supposed to be

01:21:33.920 really, really well done.

01:21:35.860 They say that

01:21:37.380 everybody I have talked to

01:21:38.900 that has seen this movie

01:21:40.240 has called me

01:21:41.820 as they're leaving

01:21:43.400 the theater

01:21:43.880 and they've said,

01:21:44.520 Glenn, you have to see

01:21:47.400 this movie.

01:21:48.560 You will laugh.

01:21:49.740 You will cry.

01:21:52.040 And at the same time,

01:21:53.580 you'll be laughing.

01:21:54.660 It is supposedly

01:21:56.340 one of the best

01:21:58.960 stories and well-done films

01:22:02.780 that just touches you.

01:22:04.440 It's introducing a new actor

01:22:09.160 who has Down syndrome

01:22:12.380 and he wants to be a wrestler

01:22:15.440 and his wrestling name

01:22:17.840 is The Peanut Butter Falcon

01:22:19.840 and it's this journey

01:22:24.200 of misfits

01:22:25.460 that is apparently

01:22:28.320 just fantastic.

01:22:29.380 I haven't seen it yet.

01:22:30.700 Have you seen

01:22:31.300 the Dave Chappelle special?

01:22:33.240 Netflix, yes.

01:22:35.060 Yeah.

01:22:35.440 It's making a lot of noise

01:22:37.140 and he's angering

01:22:39.380 all the right people,

01:22:40.740 oddly.

01:22:41.480 Exactly right.

01:22:43.120 You know,

01:22:43.680 can we spend some time

01:22:45.160 at the beginning

01:22:46.080 of next hour

01:22:46.780 because I want to

01:22:47.420 talk about this

01:22:48.540 because something

01:22:49.820 is happening

01:22:51.060 and this special

01:22:53.700 really is a

01:22:56.600 sign of things

01:23:00.120 are turning

01:23:00.860 between this

01:23:02.220 and the Joe Rogan special.

01:23:03.480 I don't know

01:23:03.840 if you saw that

01:23:04.580 but there's

01:23:05.740 some interesting

01:23:06.580 observations.

01:23:07.840 Comedy is coming back

01:23:09.600 with a vengeance.

01:23:12.020 You're listening

01:23:12.940 to Glenn Beck.

01:23:14.520 Hello, America.

01:23:29.060 It's Friday.

01:23:31.840 But I have even better news.

01:23:35.280 America, it is Friday

01:23:37.060 leading into a three-day weekend.

01:23:40.620 And yes,

01:23:42.140 thank goodness.

01:23:44.640 And we have the socialists

01:23:46.560 to thank

01:23:47.200 for this three-day weekend.

01:23:50.460 More on that

01:23:51.560 in one minute.

01:23:53.040 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:23:58.060 So, one of the listeners

01:23:59.300 to my program,

01:24:00.380 Carolyn,

01:24:00.940 wrote in and she said,

01:24:02.100 Glenn, I have to tell you,

01:24:02.800 I have had a very profound

01:24:04.100 experience using the

01:24:05.340 23andMe Health

01:24:06.360 and Ancestry Kit.

01:24:08.080 It ended up

01:24:09.300 uniting her

01:24:10.240 with her twin brother,

01:24:11.820 Charles.

01:24:13.300 Apparently,

01:24:14.720 as babies,

01:24:15.700 the two adoptees

01:24:16.800 separated since the age

01:24:18.580 of two

01:24:19.100 did not know

01:24:20.420 about each other.

01:24:23.920 The reunion,

01:24:25.320 she assured me,

01:24:26.100 was one of the most

01:24:26.820 moving moments

01:24:28.160 in her life.

01:24:29.720 I can't even imagine

01:24:30.840 finding out,

01:24:32.000 taking a DNA test

01:24:33.140 and if you opt in

01:24:34.880 to find your relatives,

01:24:36.520 you can go online

01:24:37.660 and it'll tell you

01:24:39.360 how you're related

01:24:40.360 and it's really

01:24:41.820 an amazing thing.

01:24:42.540 You don't have to opt in

01:24:43.300 on that,

01:24:43.640 but it's free.

01:24:45.040 And so she must have

01:24:46.060 opted in to that

01:24:47.920 and imagine

01:24:48.980 finding your brother

01:24:50.780 that you didn't know

01:24:52.160 existed.

01:24:54.760 This sort of thing

01:24:55.740 happens all the time.

01:24:57.200 I mean,

01:24:57.400 I would love to work

01:24:58.220 at 23andMe

01:24:59.000 just to hear

01:25:00.200 the stories,

01:25:01.120 the millions of stories

01:25:02.500 that must come in.

01:25:04.520 23andMe,

01:25:05.380 it will help you

01:25:06.280 unlock your past

01:25:17.400 you know,

01:25:17.740 whether or not

01:25:18.280 you have a likelihood

01:25:19.160 for blood sugar

01:25:20.040 regulation disorders.

01:25:21.680 They don't diagnose disease

01:25:23.080 or describe overall

01:25:24.480 likelihood of developing

01:25:25.760 any disease,

01:25:26.900 but 23andMe

01:26:02.540 dot com

01:26:03.600 slash Beck.

01:26:04.480 Well,

01:26:10.940 welcome to Labor Day.

01:26:13.440 Labor Day weekend.

01:26:15.340 You know,

01:26:15.600 as a kid growing up,

01:26:16.780 Labor Day weekend

01:26:17.660 just meant

01:26:18.220 the end of summer

01:26:19.160 and white pants.

01:26:20.440 Couldn't wear white pants

01:26:21.400 anymore,

01:26:21.860 white shoes,

01:26:22.940 which I don't even think

01:26:24.660 is a fashion.

01:26:25.360 There are no fashion rules

01:26:26.940 anymore,

01:26:27.300 I don't think.

01:26:28.820 Anyway,

01:26:29.400 Labor Day,

01:26:30.020 that's what it always

01:26:30.740 meant to me

01:26:31.400 that on the Labor Day weekend

01:26:33.280 you would watch

01:26:34.020 the Jerry Lewis telethon

01:26:35.480 and the next day

01:26:37.920 you were going

01:26:38.820 to school.

01:26:40.480 Oof.

01:26:41.740 It was the end

01:26:42.640 of

01:26:43.060 of your

01:26:44.660 childhood

01:26:45.640 summer times.

01:26:49.140 But,

01:26:49.820 you know,

01:26:50.360 it actually was started

01:26:52.780 by the Marxists,

01:26:54.740 the socialists,

01:26:57.040 to extol

01:26:58.280 the power

01:26:59.140 of the unions

01:26:59.960 and the

01:27:00.560 workers of the world

01:27:02.220 unite on Labor Day.

01:27:03.980 But I don't think

01:27:04.680 anybody thinks of it

01:27:05.680 that way.

01:27:06.140 I guess some do.

01:27:08.280 But almost every holiday,

01:27:09.600 this is going to blow

01:27:10.080 your mind,

01:27:10.760 almost every holiday

01:27:12.080 that has come

01:27:16.060 after probably

01:27:17.120 1880,

01:27:18.500 1890 maybe,

01:27:20.640 has really been

01:27:21.740 a socialist

01:27:22.320 kind of thing.

01:27:24.440 And then they

01:27:25.280 perverted the other

01:27:26.180 holidays.

01:27:26.920 Do you know

01:27:27.320 that we didn't,

01:27:28.040 during the founding,

01:27:29.380 Stu,

01:27:29.620 during the founding,

01:27:31.480 you know we didn't

01:27:32.380 celebrate Christmas,

01:27:33.380 right?

01:27:34.260 We celebrated

01:27:35.100 Christmas,

01:27:35.760 but you did,

01:27:36.560 it was not a holiday.

01:27:39.140 Did you know that?

01:27:40.080 I don't know

01:27:41.180 that I knew that.

01:27:42.260 Maybe I did at one point,

01:27:43.460 but it didn't off the top

01:27:44.220 of my head ring a bell.

01:27:45.420 Yeah.

01:27:46.500 I mean,

01:27:46.720 we didn't have,

01:27:47.200 national holidays

01:27:48.600 wasn't really

01:27:49.180 like a big thing

01:27:50.360 at that point,

01:27:50.880 was it?

01:27:51.720 No,

01:27:52.200 but Christmas

01:27:53.020 was always a holiday.

01:27:54.660 I mean,

01:27:54.780 Christmas,

01:27:55.300 I mean,

01:27:55.440 these were Christians.

01:27:56.780 But do you know

01:27:57.780 why we didn't

01:27:58.440 have Christmas?

01:28:00.360 We didn't have

01:28:01.180 the Grinch.

01:28:01.800 We didn't have,

01:28:02.400 yeah,

01:28:03.140 right.

01:28:03.840 Yes.

01:28:04.480 Have you seen

01:28:05.140 that documentary?

01:28:05.880 Yes,

01:28:06.100 it's really good,

01:28:06.680 powerful.

01:28:07.420 All right,

01:28:08.200 with George Washington

01:28:09.140 as a who.

01:28:11.520 We didn't have

01:28:12.340 Christmas,

01:28:13.000 not because

01:28:14.080 it wasn't

01:28:14.740 the federal

01:28:15.100 government's position,

01:28:16.460 but because

01:28:17.340 it was considered

01:28:18.700 garish

01:28:19.500 to,

01:28:20.920 on the day

01:28:21.480 that Christ

01:28:22.300 was born

01:28:23.600 that you would

01:28:24.980 take a day

01:28:26.240 off

01:28:27.220 and not work.

01:28:29.780 Yeah,

01:28:29.940 what did you do for it?

01:28:30.700 You didn't do anything.

01:28:32.320 Right.

01:28:33.640 Nor can you do

01:28:34.660 anything for it.

01:28:35.760 Right.

01:28:36.800 That should be

01:28:37.640 Labor Day.

01:28:39.640 But anyway,

01:28:40.700 so we didn't

01:28:41.920 do it

01:28:44.480 because we thought

01:28:45.080 it would be

01:28:45.420 too commercialized.

01:28:46.880 It was a very

01:28:47.640 private thing.

01:28:48.840 People worked

01:28:49.460 and then they went home

01:28:50.380 and they had

01:28:51.240 their Christmas meal.

01:28:53.600 Do you know now

01:28:54.800 when we did

01:28:56.160 make Christmas

01:28:57.220 a holiday?

01:28:58.820 I did not know

01:28:59.880 I had a quiz today,

01:29:00.860 but no,

01:29:01.240 I don't know

01:29:01.660 off the top of my head.

01:29:02.760 Take a guess.

01:29:03.980 When did Christmas

01:29:05.040 become something

01:29:05.820 we celebrated

01:29:06.780 by taking the day off?

01:29:09.440 Last Thursday.

01:29:10.580 I don't,

01:29:11.260 I don't know.

01:29:11.980 Shut up. 0.95

01:29:13.780 18,

01:29:14.520 1870.

01:29:16.640 That's my next guess.

01:29:18.220 1870 or last Thursday.

01:29:19.400 Isn't it crazy though?

01:29:21.320 Yeah,

01:29:21.480 I mean it seems

01:29:22.200 recent for something

01:29:23.920 like that.

01:29:24.900 Right.

01:29:25.560 So we had,

01:29:26.480 in 1870,

01:29:27.780 we adopted

01:29:29.300 New Year's Day

01:29:30.300 as a day off,

01:29:32.020 the 4th of July

01:29:32.920 Independence Day,

01:29:34.360 Thanksgiving Day,

01:29:35.860 and Christmas.

01:29:37.560 Even though we

01:29:38.180 already celebrated

01:29:39.100 all of those,

01:29:40.600 we didn't have

01:29:41.820 the day off.

01:29:43.660 And that was

01:29:44.580 at the beginning,

01:29:45.220 and isn't it

01:29:45.940 interesting,

01:29:46.360 in 1858,

01:29:49.200 Marx writes

01:29:50.400 his,

01:29:50.940 you know,

01:29:51.500 manifesto.

01:29:53.040 In 1870,

01:29:55.240 Paris,

01:29:55.900 the communist

01:29:56.920 riots are going on,

01:29:58.560 and we're beginning

01:29:59.600 to be influenced

01:30:00.660 by Marxism

01:30:01.840 and socialists.

01:30:03.840 1880 is when

01:30:05.020 we really start

01:30:06.120 to go

01:30:06.680 hard left 0.70

01:30:08.320 because

01:30:09.200 our people

01:30:10.480 like Woodrow Wilson

01:30:11.480 are coming back

01:30:12.840 home from school

01:30:14.160 in Germany.

01:30:16.880 And so they're

01:30:17.240 picking up

01:30:17.740 all of this

01:30:18.280 crap.

01:30:19.420 So,

01:30:20.080 listen to this.

01:30:21.380 In 1880,

01:30:22.500 we get

01:30:22.840 Washington's

01:30:23.480 birthday.

01:30:24.380 In 1894,

01:30:26.360 when just

01:30:27.060 before

01:30:27.660 Roosevelt

01:30:28.780 starts the

01:30:29.740 progressive party,

01:30:31.480 we get

01:30:32.000 Labor Day.

01:30:33.100 Then we get

01:30:33.700 Armistice Day

01:30:34.740 in 1936.

01:30:37.040 That's to,

01:30:38.000 you know,

01:30:38.540 recognize,

01:30:39.600 you know,

01:30:40.680 the end of the

01:30:41.460 war.

01:30:41.740 in 1968,

01:30:45.760 that's changed

01:30:46.540 to Veterans Day.

01:30:49.580 In,

01:30:49.800 in,

01:30:50.540 during the

01:30:53.240 Roosevelt

01:30:54.560 time,

01:30:56.120 we changed

01:30:57.100 Thanksgiving,

01:30:57.660 which was meant

01:30:58.880 to be really,

01:30:59.940 really sacred.

01:31:01.400 And we celebrated

01:31:02.880 from George Washington,

01:31:04.200 we celebrated

01:31:04.820 Thanksgiving Day,

01:31:05.760 just no day off

01:31:06.680 on it,

01:31:07.020 no holiday.

01:31:07.560 and we

01:31:09.140 celebrated it

01:31:10.140 and we

01:31:11.460 had it on

01:31:12.040 the last

01:31:12.720 Thursday

01:31:13.340 of,

01:31:14.460 of November.

01:31:16.300 But during

01:31:17.240 the Depression,

01:31:18.520 we bastardized it.

01:31:20.540 We took this

01:31:21.280 really sacred

01:31:22.680 holiday

01:31:23.200 and

01:31:24.500 Roosevelt

01:31:25.300 moved it

01:31:26.460 to the

01:31:27.240 third Thursday

01:31:28.300 so you could

01:31:29.800 have a Black

01:31:30.480 Friday

01:31:30.960 and have

01:31:32.280 shopping season

01:31:33.460 last longer.

01:31:35.420 I mean,

01:31:35.920 you want to talk

01:31:36.440 about your gods.

01:31:38.300 Columbus Day

01:31:38.940 is 1968,

01:31:40.340 MLK

01:31:40.880 was 1983.

01:31:42.660 It blows

01:31:43.420 my mind

01:31:44.040 that it was,

01:31:44.640 it wasn't

01:31:45.560 until

01:31:45.960 1870

01:31:47.580 that it was

01:31:49.520 a day off

01:31:50.080 for things

01:31:50.680 like Christmas.

01:31:52.880 How much

01:31:53.660 we have

01:31:54.240 changed

01:31:55.040 as a nation.

01:31:56.080 Now,

01:31:56.400 you could have

01:31:56.860 taken it off,

01:31:57.460 you could have

01:31:57.780 given it,

01:31:58.600 you know,

01:31:58.960 to your,

01:31:59.440 your staff

01:32:00.240 if you wanted

01:32:00.900 to.

01:32:01.840 You could,

01:32:02.840 you know,

01:32:03.240 everybody was free

01:32:03.980 to do whatever

01:32:04.820 they wanted.

01:32:05.280 We didn't even

01:32:06.040 have a standard

01:32:07.040 flag.

01:32:08.140 You could make

01:32:09.140 a flag

01:32:09.680 and you could

01:32:10.120 put the stars

01:32:10.680 any way you

01:32:11.300 want.

01:32:12.160 You could do

01:32:12.820 anything you

01:32:13.540 want with

01:32:13.920 the flag

01:32:14.400 up until

01:32:15.460 Woodrow Wilson.

01:32:16.580 We didn't

01:32:17.080 have a national

01:32:17.880 anthem

01:32:18.280 until FDR.

01:32:20.660 That's crazy

01:32:21.900 how we have

01:32:23.440 now become

01:32:24.020 so nationalized

01:32:25.740 where we were

01:32:26.940 the exact

01:32:27.700 opposite

01:32:28.320 a hundred

01:32:28.980 years ago.

01:32:30.060 All right,

01:32:30.600 I want to talk

01:32:31.000 to you a little

01:32:31.300 bit about the

01:32:31.840 Dave Chappelle

01:32:32.780 special on

01:32:34.360 Netflix.

01:32:35.540 Everyone tells

01:32:36.580 me,

01:32:37.080 they're like,

01:32:37.460 Glenn,

01:32:37.880 it is the

01:32:38.560 funniest thing

01:32:39.440 ever.

01:32:39.940 It is so

01:32:40.680 brilliant.

01:32:41.460 It's blah,

01:32:41.980 blah,

01:32:42.100 blah.

01:32:42.700 It is brave.

01:32:43.980 It is funny.

01:32:45.140 It's foul in

01:32:46.220 case you,

01:32:46.840 you know,

01:32:47.260 are,

01:32:47.520 you know,

01:32:48.600 offended by

01:32:49.420 language.

01:32:50.220 It is very

01:32:51.200 foul.

01:32:52.460 But I don't

01:32:53.380 think it's,

01:32:54.740 I think we

01:32:55.680 are forgetting

01:32:56.600 that this is

01:32:58.240 the way comedy

01:32:59.300 was 15

01:33:01.180 years ago.

01:33:03.260 You could

01:33:04.020 make all of

01:33:04.800 those jokes

01:33:05.440 15 years

01:33:06.360 ago.

01:33:07.320 Now,

01:33:08.080 him making

01:33:08.820 those jokes

01:33:09.760 that were

01:33:10.140 perfectly fine

01:33:11.060 before

01:33:11.580 are,

01:33:12.940 is now

01:33:13.620 suddenly

01:33:14.120 cutting edge.

01:33:15.360 And it,

01:33:16.280 to me,

01:33:16.860 says a lot.

01:33:18.860 It says that

01:33:19.720 the left

01:33:20.200 has overplayed

01:33:21.200 its hand,

01:33:22.120 that even

01:33:22.660 people like

01:33:23.280 Dave Chappelle

01:33:23.900 and what was

01:33:25.160 the other one

01:33:25.760 that came out

01:33:26.380 recently?

01:33:27.780 You mentioned

01:33:28.180 Joe Rogan?

01:33:29.300 Yeah,

01:33:29.940 Joe Rogan.

01:33:30.820 Did you see

01:33:31.320 that one?

01:33:31.640 I have not

01:33:32.000 seen the

01:33:32.400 Rogan special

01:33:32.980 yet,

01:33:33.280 no.

01:33:34.100 Oh my gosh,

01:33:35.160 is that funny?

01:33:36.000 Really?

01:33:37.060 The Joe Rogan

01:33:38.180 special is

01:33:38.840 really,

01:33:39.980 really funny

01:33:40.720 in exactly

01:33:41.620 the same way

01:33:42.540 where he's

01:33:43.540 just saying

01:33:44.460 whatever he

01:33:45.240 wants to

01:33:45.780 say and

01:33:46.840 he's just

01:33:47.600 done with

01:33:49.060 the,

01:33:49.540 you know,

01:33:50.240 the shunning

01:33:51.440 society.

01:33:52.740 I don't know

01:33:53.720 how these two

01:33:54.440 guys make it,

01:33:55.320 but they are

01:33:55.760 leading the way

01:33:57.080 back to

01:33:58.220 sanity.

01:33:58.680 As comedy

01:33:59.800 always should,

01:34:01.140 it should

01:34:01.580 just take

01:34:02.100 on truth

01:34:03.160 and show

01:34:04.300 us ourselves

01:34:05.220 in a,

01:34:05.820 you know,

01:34:07.040 a parabolic

01:34:08.180 mirror.

01:34:09.060 Sort of

01:34:09.460 surprising

01:34:10.020 though,

01:34:10.300 I mean,

01:34:10.580 because for

01:34:12.300 a long time,

01:34:13.340 right,

01:34:13.700 comedy pushed

01:34:14.580 the boundaries

01:34:15.280 of criticizing

01:34:16.820 traditions and,

01:34:18.640 you know,

01:34:19.080 religion and,

01:34:20.720 you know,

01:34:21.420 people who

01:34:21.900 were too

01:34:22.360 stodgy and

01:34:23.620 such,

01:34:24.020 right?

01:34:24.220 And that

01:34:26.600 has been

01:34:26.900 kind of

01:34:27.240 the pattern.

01:34:28.800 But don't

01:34:29.420 you think

01:34:29.800 that that's

01:34:30.240 what they're

01:34:30.460 doing now?

01:34:30.860 Well,

01:34:31.160 that's what I

01:34:31.380 was going to

01:34:31.520 say.

01:34:32.060 You hear them

01:34:32.740 talk about it.

01:34:33.400 It's new

01:34:33.640 puritanism.

01:34:36.140 It is like

01:34:36.700 this idea that

01:34:37.940 you have to

01:34:38.480 line up.

01:34:39.180 I mean,

01:34:39.380 Louis C.K.,

01:34:40.140 who has

01:34:41.260 been shunned

01:34:42.660 from our

01:34:43.060 society at

01:34:44.160 this point,

01:34:44.680 and there's a

01:34:45.300 very funny part.

01:34:46.140 I don't think he's

01:34:46.160 coming back.

01:34:46.960 It's a very

01:34:47.720 funny part of

01:34:48.280 the Chappelle

01:34:48.760 about the

01:34:50.980 Louis C.K.

01:34:51.580 thing.

01:34:52.480 But he did a

01:34:53.320 bit just

01:34:53.840 recently basically

01:34:54.860 saying exactly

01:34:55.720 that,

01:34:56.920 that,

01:34:57.660 you know,

01:34:57.940 people,

01:34:58.820 you know,

01:34:58.980 when you talk

01:34:59.320 about which

01:34:59.760 pronouns you're

01:35:00.560 allowed to be

01:35:01.080 called,

01:35:03.280 and people get

01:35:03.680 offended if they're

01:35:04.340 called the

01:35:04.940 incorrect pronoun,

01:35:06.440 is that almost

01:35:07.380 not identical to

01:35:08.800 the way that

01:35:10.260 we have to

01:35:11.040 refer to

01:35:11.760 royalty?

01:35:13.100 You know,

01:35:13.320 you'd have to

01:35:13.740 refer to kings

01:35:14.860 and queens

01:35:15.640 and prince

01:35:17.020 and princess

01:35:17.560 and all of

01:35:18.480 that.

01:35:19.120 And you're

01:35:19.840 briefed before

01:35:20.720 you meet them

01:35:21.580 to make sure

01:35:22.340 that you have

01:35:23.120 the right,

01:35:23.980 the right

01:35:25.060 pronouns.

01:35:25.920 Right.

01:35:26.760 I mean,

01:35:27.520 that is a

01:35:28.340 thing.

01:35:30.100 It's,

01:35:30.600 it's,

01:35:31.040 it's because

01:35:31.660 it's from the

01:35:32.120 left.

01:35:32.480 Most comedians

01:35:33.320 have avoided

01:35:34.540 criticizing it,

01:35:35.620 but there's been

01:35:36.280 a few brave

01:35:36.780 ones and,

01:35:37.460 and most of

01:35:38.680 them are on

01:35:39.160 the left.

01:35:39.480 I mean,

01:35:39.600 I think Dave

01:35:40.080 Chappelle is

01:35:40.580 certainly no

01:35:41.020 right wing

01:35:41.500 figure.

01:35:42.200 Neither is

01:35:42.560 Louis C.K.

01:35:43.440 We've seen

01:35:44.020 stuff like this

01:35:44.600 from people

01:35:45.060 like even

01:35:45.660 like Patton

01:35:46.220 Oswalt,

01:35:46.920 who's an

01:35:47.320 incredibly left

01:35:48.540 wing guy

01:35:49.060 who's just,

01:35:50.000 who came out

01:35:50.840 and said,

01:35:51.080 look,

01:35:51.340 you know,

01:35:51.560 we're trying

01:35:52.200 to help.

01:35:52.960 I'm a progressive

01:35:53.820 guy,

01:35:54.500 but can you

01:35:55.780 not yell at me

01:35:56.520 every time I get a

01:35:57.120 pronoun wrong that

01:35:57.780 you changed two

01:35:58.400 days ago?

01:35:59.320 I mean,

01:35:59.620 these are,

01:36:00.020 these are insane

01:36:01.220 new standards that

01:36:02.200 are being put on,

01:36:02.900 on,

01:36:03.200 on us.

01:36:04.700 And comedians are

01:36:05.920 really the ones

01:36:06.560 that are,

01:36:06.940 that lead the

01:36:08.200 culture as far

01:36:09.780 as pointing out

01:36:11.560 how ridiculously

01:36:12.260 absurd they are.

01:36:13.580 And,

01:36:14.080 you know,

01:36:14.240 you gotta cheer

01:36:14.880 it on.

01:36:15.400 I mean,

01:36:15.580 this is why I

01:36:16.180 get annoyed

01:36:16.760 when conservatives,

01:36:18.900 and this does

01:36:19.340 happen,

01:36:19.880 criticize some

01:36:20.700 comedian for

01:36:21.280 making a joke

01:36:21.940 that's inappropriate

01:36:22.640 or whatever.

01:36:23.800 Like,

01:36:24.080 this is the

01:36:24.700 ultimate bastion

01:36:25.900 of free speech.

01:36:26.940 This is where it

01:36:27.680 needs to exist

01:36:28.340 more than any

01:36:29.060 other place

01:36:29.600 is comedy.

01:36:30.340 You have to be

01:36:31.100 able to exaggerate

01:36:32.320 and say ridiculous

01:36:33.320 things and not

01:36:34.060 have them be

01:36:34.620 taken like policy

01:36:36.040 statements.

01:36:37.160 It's comedy.

01:36:38.020 You have to be

01:36:38.820 able to do those

01:36:39.400 things,

01:36:39.860 and it's beneficial

01:36:40.760 for our society

01:36:41.660 in the long run

01:36:42.340 that you have

01:36:43.120 people who can

01:36:43.860 do that and not

01:36:44.560 be fired or

01:36:45.840 canceled every time

01:36:46.700 they come out

01:36:47.100 with the wrong

01:36:47.580 joke.

01:36:48.480 But they

01:36:49.400 abandoned their

01:36:50.800 post for the

01:36:52.480 entire Obama

01:36:53.800 administration.

01:36:55.880 They were

01:36:56.800 becoming organs

01:36:58.060 of the left.

01:36:59.880 That's all it

01:37:00.740 was.

01:37:01.160 There was no

01:37:01.600 comedy.

01:37:02.360 They were going

01:37:03.140 for claptor.

01:37:05.220 If you watch

01:37:07.120 Chappelle's comedy,

01:37:08.940 people will clap

01:37:09.940 when he says

01:37:10.600 something and

01:37:11.220 he'll say,

01:37:11.720 oh, shut up. 0.99

01:37:13.560 I mean,

01:37:13.880 he is not

01:37:16.040 going for

01:37:16.780 claptor.

01:37:17.420 In fact,

01:37:17.860 he hates it.

01:37:20.220 Don't,

01:37:20.520 I mean,

01:37:20.880 when he said,

01:37:22.260 you know,

01:37:22.920 it's impossible

01:37:23.860 to be a celebrity

01:37:24.800 now.

01:37:25.200 It's impossible

01:37:25.780 to do our

01:37:27.120 job because

01:37:28.180 everything,

01:37:29.200 you know,

01:37:29.420 anything,

01:37:29.880 you say,

01:37:30.960 if somebody,

01:37:31.600 if I've said

01:37:32.080 something 15

01:37:33.040 years ago,

01:37:34.200 you know,

01:37:34.500 everybody wants

01:37:35.240 you shut down

01:37:36.020 and people start

01:37:37.120 to clap like,

01:37:38.000 yeah,

01:37:38.140 that's right.

01:37:38.600 And he's like,

01:37:39.120 shut up. 0.95

01:37:39.660 You know who

01:37:40.040 I'm talking

01:37:40.540 about?

01:37:41.580 You.

01:37:42.740 I'm talking

01:37:43.420 about you.

01:37:44.800 Because no one

01:37:45.720 sees this in

01:37:46.300 themselves,

01:37:46.900 right?

01:37:47.460 No one sees

01:37:48.440 the annoying

01:37:49.120 person who's

01:37:49.920 trying to get

01:37:50.280 everybody fired

01:37:50.920 in themselves.

01:37:51.520 But I mean,

01:37:52.000 that's why I

01:37:52.580 tried so hard

01:37:53.280 to avoid it.

01:37:53.920 And I know

01:37:54.160 we've done

01:37:54.500 that many times

01:37:55.100 as well.

01:37:55.980 I mean,

01:37:56.140 you look at,

01:37:56.900 Sarah Silverman's

01:37:57.720 a great example

01:37:58.360 of this.

01:37:58.780 Sarah Silverman

01:37:59.640 who came out

01:38:00.240 and was the

01:38:00.720 entire administration.

01:38:02.320 She's a complete

01:38:03.240 leftist.

01:38:04.000 She's constantly

01:38:04.980 criticizing everybody

01:38:06.300 else.

01:38:07.300 And then here she

01:38:07.920 is.

01:38:08.180 She did a bit

01:38:08.720 back in,

01:38:09.960 gosh,

01:38:10.280 it was 2006

01:38:10.940 or 2007,

01:38:11.700 where she used

01:38:12.760 blackface to 0.70

01:38:14.200 make a point.

01:38:14.780 By the way,

01:38:15.420 a point about

01:38:16.080 woke racism.

01:38:17.520 She was basically 0.68

01:38:18.240 acting like an idiot

01:38:19.160 and not understanding

01:38:20.000 racism to point

01:38:20.900 out the evils

01:38:22.060 of racism,

01:38:22.700 right?

01:38:22.800 That's the point

01:38:23.460 of the bit.

01:38:24.480 Then in 2014,

01:38:26.140 she comes out

01:38:26.680 and now is so woke

01:38:27.920 that she's critical

01:38:28.880 of herself saying,

01:38:30.200 wow,

01:38:30.440 even though I was

01:38:31.460 making the right

01:38:32.080 point,

01:38:32.460 I shouldn't have

01:38:33.080 done that.

01:38:33.480 It was insensitive.

01:38:34.680 And in 2019,

01:38:36.520 five years later,

01:38:37.780 she's losing gigs 0.83

01:38:39.480 because people

01:38:40.780 are pulling

01:38:42.240 screenshots of her

01:38:43.520 in blackface

01:38:44.560 as if she was

01:38:45.640 doing something

01:38:46.400 that was racist.

01:38:47.820 And it's like,

01:38:48.540 well,

01:38:48.720 this is the society

01:38:49.820 you've built.

01:38:50.800 Do you not

01:38:51.180 understand that?

01:38:52.300 You've put all

01:38:53.160 of these rules up

01:38:54.020 and applied them

01:38:54.600 only to conservatives

01:38:55.560 and now conservatives

01:38:57.020 at some level

01:38:57.780 are trying to apply

01:38:58.600 it to you

01:38:59.040 and the culture

01:38:59.820 in general

01:39:00.360 has now decided,

01:39:01.140 well,

01:39:01.300 now that's the rule.

01:39:02.380 When we decide

01:39:03.140 15 years afterwards

01:39:04.260 that something

01:39:04.740 is completely wrong,

01:39:05.700 we can retroactively

01:39:06.720 get justice

01:39:07.480 by ruining your life 0.80

01:39:08.700 today.

01:39:09.420 And that cannot

01:39:10.380 possibly be a sensible

01:39:11.580 standard for a

01:39:12.340 civilization to hold.

01:39:14.040 When he was doing

01:39:15.120 the Chappelle show,

01:39:16.240 he was called

01:39:17.240 into HR

01:39:17.840 and they said,

01:39:19.060 Dave,

01:39:19.420 you can't say

01:39:20.340 the F word.

01:39:21.960 You know,

01:39:22.520 in regard to

01:39:24.340 homosexuals. 0.80

01:39:26.820 And he said,

01:39:28.020 you can't use that.

01:39:29.960 And he said,

01:39:31.000 oh,

01:39:31.320 okay,

01:39:31.740 I don't care.

01:39:33.180 So he decided

01:39:34.020 not to use it.

01:39:34.840 And he said,

01:39:35.660 later I thought,

01:39:36.760 wait a minute,

01:39:38.100 how come I can't

01:39:38.960 use that word,

01:39:40.340 but I can use

01:39:41.020 the N word

01:39:41.740 and everybody's fine.

01:39:43.420 He went back

01:39:44.060 and she said,

01:39:45.260 well,

01:39:46.300 because Dave,

01:39:48.020 you know,

01:39:50.200 you're not

01:39:50.940 homosexual. 0.86

01:39:52.720 And he's like,

01:39:53.920 well,

01:39:54.400 I'm not

01:39:55.400 an N word

01:39:56.400 either.

01:39:58.000 So,

01:39:58.580 wait a minute,

01:39:59.320 you're implying

01:40:00.500 that I am

01:40:01.580 an N word

01:40:02.640 and that's why

01:40:03.520 I can use that?

01:40:06.000 That's not

01:40:06.560 who I am.

01:40:07.360 You would not

01:40:07.740 want to get in an HR

01:40:08.620 conversation with Dave Chappelle.

01:40:10.260 That would not go well

01:40:10.980 for you.

01:40:11.860 That's such a good point.

01:40:13.860 Such a good point.

01:40:15.380 We've all been saying it,

01:40:16.720 you know,

01:40:17.240 wait a minute,

01:40:17.820 this is a slam.

01:40:18.900 It's either a slam

01:40:19.760 or it's not.

01:40:20.580 Well,

01:40:20.760 they can say it

01:40:21.460 because that's who they,

01:40:22.600 you're calling them that?

01:40:24.680 You as a white man

01:40:26.120 is calling them

01:40:27.180 and saying,

01:40:27.600 yeah,

01:40:27.740 they can say it

01:40:28.460 because that's who they are.

01:40:29.960 Oh my gosh.

01:40:32.080 All right,

01:40:32.540 let me tell you about X chair.

01:40:33.820 If you're a small business owner,

01:40:35.140 hopefully one of the things

01:40:36.420 that you've learned

01:40:37.320 is that happy employees

01:40:38.840 make happy companies.

01:40:41.240 It's true

01:40:42.120 and I ought to know.

01:40:43.240 I own my own business

01:40:44.420 and it's a struggle

01:40:47.480 to keep people happy

01:40:49.540 and I have happy people

01:40:51.900 working with me,

01:40:52.720 I think.

01:40:53.300 They might not be

01:40:54.020 trying to stab me

01:40:54.740 in the back,

01:40:55.220 I don't know,

01:40:55.740 but I think they're,

01:40:56.720 I think we're just

01:40:57.640 a great team.

01:40:59.180 I love the people

01:41:00.040 I work with.

01:41:01.640 When the people

01:41:02.460 you work with,

01:41:04.000 when they're doing

01:41:05.560 the best to pull out

01:41:06.700 all of the stops,

01:41:08.080 you know,

01:41:09.740 you might want to pull

01:41:10.540 all of the stops out

01:41:11.540 for you.

01:41:12.480 They tend to want to perform

01:41:13.680 the best job

01:41:15.060 that they possibly can.

01:41:17.060 That's how you build

01:41:17.840 a good team

01:41:18.700 when you're working together.

01:41:21.220 There is something

01:41:22.220 that you can do

01:41:23.200 if you are looking

01:41:24.280 to redo your office

01:41:25.520 and you're looking

01:41:26.480 to do new office chairs.

01:42:28.740 So,

01:42:41.460 I don't know if you've been reading

01:42:43.000 or following at all

01:42:44.160 the Joker,

01:42:45.200 the movie that is coming out.

01:42:48.140 It looks

01:42:49.160 fantastic.

01:42:52.180 Joaquin Phoenix is,

01:42:54.320 I mean,

01:42:54.640 I just think he's a fantastic

01:42:56.200 actor.

01:42:57.480 He was great

01:42:59.020 as Johnny Cash.

01:43:00.260 I mean,

01:43:00.520 he just nailed Johnny Cash.

01:43:02.800 Well,

01:43:03.160 he is now doing

01:43:04.920 a new version

01:43:06.760 of the Joker

01:43:08.980 for the Batman series.

01:43:11.360 And they talk about

01:43:13.100 how this is,

01:43:14.340 you know,

01:43:14.660 a lot of the feel

01:43:15.560 is Scorsese's taxi driver

01:43:17.640 or the king of comedy.

01:43:20.700 But they say

01:43:22.380 that this is going

01:43:23.400 to open up

01:43:24.440 an entirely new world

01:43:26.380 for film,

01:43:28.340 especially for the Batman series.

01:43:30.220 They're saying

01:43:31.020 this is not

01:43:32.220 your typical Batman

01:43:33.820 and it is not

01:43:34.980 the Joker

01:43:35.600 that we all know.

01:43:37.620 It is

01:43:38.700 the descent

01:43:40.580 into madness

01:43:41.680 and it's not

01:43:42.780 a chemical spill

01:43:43.800 or anything else.

01:43:45.020 It's how this guy

01:43:46.540 is,

01:43:48.060 he becomes this killer

01:43:49.040 is he is just

01:43:50.400 alone.

01:43:51.620 And his idol

01:43:53.360 rejects him.

01:43:54.680 The city

01:43:55.800 rejects him.

01:43:57.620 And

01:43:58.020 here comes

01:44:00.840 here comes

01:44:01.820 the Joker

01:44:02.380 and he decides

01:44:03.480 really?

01:44:05.120 Now,

01:44:05.720 I didn't know this

01:44:06.500 but apparently

01:44:07.260 the Joker

01:44:07.820 has its roots

01:44:08.920 in a silent film

01:44:10.080 called

01:44:10.440 The Man Who Laughs

01:44:11.660 which is supposed

01:44:12.540 to be very,

01:44:13.220 very

01:44:13.500 creepy.

01:44:15.820 But

01:44:16.360 this movie

01:44:17.680 promises

01:44:18.220 to hold

01:44:19.040 a mirror up

01:44:19.880 to our society

01:44:21.320 and how we are

01:44:22.560 isolating each other

01:44:23.980 from each other.

01:44:26.060 It is,

01:44:26.860 it looks

01:44:28.860 really interesting

01:44:29.960 and there's a lot

01:44:30.940 to talk about.

01:44:32.060 It's social

01:44:32.760 ramifications

01:44:33.640 and how we are

01:44:35.260 recreating

01:44:35.920 the world of

01:44:36.680 War of the Worlds

01:44:38.120 1939

01:44:39.120 because we are

01:44:41.200 a nation on edge.

01:44:42.440 You're listening

01:44:43.000 to Glenn Beck.

01:44:44.640 Okay,

01:44:46.800 I'm going to name

01:44:47.180 four things

01:44:47.780 and I want you

01:44:48.320 to tell me

01:44:48.700 what they all

01:44:49.100 have in common.

01:44:50.020 Air springs,

01:44:51.040 engine distributor,

01:44:52.460 timing cover gasket,

01:44:54.280 heater system.

01:44:56.860 I have no idea.

01:44:58.160 They're from cars.

01:44:59.420 They're actually

01:45:00.160 the four likeliest things

01:45:01.860 that need repairs

01:45:02.720 when summer

01:45:03.320 switches to fall.

01:45:04.800 I don't know about you

01:45:05.740 but

01:45:06.020 I don't want to

01:45:07.060 I don't even

01:45:08.060 know where

01:45:09.120 these things are.

01:45:10.020 I don't even

01:45:10.500 want to think

01:45:11.060 about them

01:45:11.620 quite honestly.

01:45:13.400 I don't know

01:45:14.520 how to repair

01:45:15.280 them or whatever.

01:45:16.580 When it comes

01:45:16.980 to my car

01:45:17.580 I push the gas

01:45:18.920 pedal

01:45:19.260 and it goes

01:45:20.480 and I push

01:45:20.960 the brake

01:45:21.440 and it stops

01:45:22.260 and that's all

01:45:23.120 I need to know.

01:45:24.020 Well,

01:45:24.200 I need to know

01:45:24.660 how to work

01:45:25.020 the air conditioner

01:45:25.600 too.

01:45:27.220 That's a better

01:45:28.040 world

01:45:28.620 and that better

01:45:30.260 world includes

01:45:31.420 CarShield.

01:45:32.800 In addition to

01:45:33.520 providing 24-7

01:45:34.660 roadside assistance

01:45:35.560 in a rental car

01:45:36.260 while yours

01:46:39.960 I'm really excited

01:46:41.060 for this Christmas

01:46:42.220 special.

01:46:43.280 You're going to

01:46:43.660 love it.

01:46:45.180 It's going to be

01:46:46.040 very funny

01:46:47.740 and also

01:46:48.960 the true meaning

01:46:50.040 of Christmas.

01:46:50.860 You don't want

01:46:51.240 to miss it.

01:46:51.960 Salt Lake City

01:46:52.460 December 7th

01:46:53.340 glennbeck.com

01:46:54.220 is where you can

01:46:54.800 find the tickets.

01:46:56.800 Alright.

01:46:58.820 Here we are

01:46:59.920 getting into

01:47:00.960 this election

01:47:01.760 and I

01:47:02.800 want to

01:47:04.040 stay close

01:47:06.120 to you

01:47:06.680 this election.

01:47:08.120 I don't want

01:47:08.560 to necessarily

01:47:09.100 talk about

01:47:10.120 politics.

01:47:11.780 I want to

01:47:12.380 talk about

01:47:13.000 what's happening

01:47:14.100 in your life

01:47:14.920 that may

01:47:16.020 revolve around

01:47:17.040 politics because

01:47:17.880 everybody in your

01:47:18.580 life is being

01:47:19.120 political but I

01:47:20.300 really want to

01:47:20.880 hear how you're

01:47:21.900 doing.

01:47:22.800 We have some

01:47:23.220 people holding

01:47:23.760 on the phone

01:47:25.160 now.

01:47:25.780 Welcome to

01:47:26.220 the Glenn Beck

01:47:26.620 program.

01:47:28.140 Well,

01:47:28.880 I left

01:47:30.820 basically a

01:47:32.240 six-figure job

01:47:33.380 to start my

01:47:34.100 own business

01:47:34.680 and that has

01:47:35.680 been very

01:47:36.320 scary.

01:47:37.860 My husband

01:47:38.740 is a self-employed

01:47:40.260 person as well.

01:47:41.980 We never had a

01:47:43.340 lot of overhead

01:47:44.020 so we saved

01:47:45.440 and saved

01:47:46.100 and just felt

01:47:46.820 like this is

01:47:47.560 the time.

01:47:48.300 The Lord

01:47:48.620 opened the

01:47:49.160 doors and

01:47:50.880 we pushed

01:47:52.960 forward.

01:47:54.340 We ran into

01:47:55.500 some snags

01:47:56.420 and that's life.

01:47:57.400 my medical

01:47:58.080 director,

01:47:58.760 I have a

01:47:59.260 medical clinic

01:47:59.880 and he

01:48:00.860 passed away

01:48:01.540 unexpectedly and

01:48:02.900 being an APN 0.68

01:48:03.840 which is an

01:48:04.380 advanced practice

01:48:05.260 nurse,

01:48:05.620 I can't open

01:48:06.280 my doors without

01:48:07.220 a medical

01:48:07.640 director.

01:48:09.000 So that's

01:48:10.140 kind of held

01:48:10.640 things up and

01:48:11.680 trying to make

01:48:12.380 bills and trying

01:48:13.580 to get health

01:48:14.200 insurance and

01:48:15.140 all those things

01:48:17.380 come into play

01:48:18.440 and I never

01:48:19.900 thought in a

01:48:20.600 million years I

01:48:21.440 would open my

01:48:22.080 own business but

01:48:23.100 at this point

01:48:23.760 in time this is

01:48:24.740 America is

01:48:26.800 great and I

01:48:27.800 know it's

01:48:28.280 going to work

01:48:28.900 once God

01:48:30.140 puts everything

01:48:30.820 into place

01:48:31.600 that he has

01:48:32.400 already and

01:48:34.140 yeah, I think

01:48:35.480 about recession

01:48:36.220 and I'm just

01:48:38.860 my concern is

01:48:40.180 that the media

01:48:41.340 is in such a

01:48:42.820 powerful position

01:48:44.360 these days that

01:48:45.400 they could start

01:48:46.300 harping on it

01:48:47.260 and create it.

01:48:49.220 You know, I

01:48:49.860 think they're

01:48:51.760 hoping to do

01:48:52.660 that.

01:48:53.020 Right, right

01:48:54.980 and I hope

01:48:56.600 President Trump

01:48:57.800 makes the

01:48:58.480 proper decisions

01:48:59.400 with, you

01:49:01.520 know, the

01:49:01.920 stock market

01:49:02.480 and everything.

01:49:03.340 I know a lot

01:49:03.840 of times what

01:49:04.440 he says affects

01:49:05.520 all of that.

01:49:06.300 I don't know

01:49:06.940 how all that

01:49:07.560 works a lot

01:49:08.560 of times but

01:49:09.620 you know, I

01:49:10.860 know it just

01:49:12.080 hinges on so

01:49:13.180 many little

01:49:13.760 things and if

01:49:14.680 somebody, you

01:49:16.260 know, big

01:49:17.200 with lots of

01:49:17.720 money pulls

01:49:18.100 their money out

01:49:18.660 then everybody

01:49:19.140 freaks out and

01:49:20.020 does the same

01:49:20.760 and so, you

01:49:22.220 know, it is

01:49:22.620 scary but

01:49:23.300 you know, I

01:49:24.020 know there's

01:49:25.660 so many ifs

01:49:26.600 in life but

01:49:28.020 God is still

01:49:28.740 the same and

01:49:30.240 you know, as

01:49:30.740 long as we put

01:49:31.400 our trust in

01:49:32.040 him, he is

01:49:33.360 the one that's

01:49:34.060 going to provide

01:49:34.920 all my needs

01:49:36.180 no matter what

01:49:37.020 and I'm not

01:49:38.180 going to let

01:49:38.580 fear control

01:49:39.320 me.

01:49:39.800 Thank you,

01:49:40.500 Carolyn, for

01:49:40.920 checking in with

01:49:41.560 me.

01:49:41.720 I appreciate the

01:49:42.240 conversation.

01:49:42.820 Let me go to

01:49:43.200 Mac in

01:49:43.780 Pennsylvania.

01:49:45.300 Mac, you're a

01:49:46.080 millennial.

01:49:48.220 That's right.

01:49:49.960 All right.

01:49:50.560 How old are

01:49:51.080 you?

01:49:52.220 I'm 26.

01:49:53.420 I just turned

01:49:53.880 26 in July and

01:49:55.120 before we start

01:49:56.560 here, let me

01:49:57.100 just say, oh

01:49:57.940 my God, I'm

01:49:58.540 talking to

01:49:58.980 freaking Glenn

01:49:59.500 Beck.

01:50:03.660 Yeah, it's

01:50:04.560 even better than

01:50:06.000 you ever imagined,

01:50:06.960 isn't it?

01:50:07.820 Just fantastic.

01:50:09.100 Thank you, Mac.

01:50:10.460 Thank you.

01:50:11.480 You're welcome,

01:50:12.120 sir.

01:50:12.300 I've been

01:50:12.700 following you

01:50:13.440 for, well,

01:50:14.880 since I got out

01:50:15.460 of high school

01:50:15.920 about seven

01:50:16.960 years ago.

01:50:18.240 Wow, thank

01:50:19.020 you.

01:50:19.540 I know, that's

01:50:20.100 pretty rare.

01:50:21.440 No, I've

01:50:21.880 stuck with you

01:50:22.480 guys.

01:50:23.840 You know, you

01:50:24.600 guys, you're

01:50:26.040 always hunting for

01:50:26.660 the truth these

01:50:27.260 days, and you

01:50:27.880 guys definitely,

01:50:29.440 you guys shine a

01:50:30.940 very broad light

01:50:31.640 on a lot of

01:50:32.420 subjects, and I

01:50:33.800 appreciate that,

01:50:34.780 and it's very

01:50:36.160 hard to find.

01:50:37.760 Thank you.

01:50:38.740 So there's a

01:50:39.400 debate in a lot

01:50:41.180 of people's minds.

01:50:42.040 Well, no, I

01:50:42.640 shouldn't say that.

01:50:43.420 There's a debate

01:50:44.040 that sometimes

01:50:44.760 goes in my

01:50:45.660 mind that I

01:50:47.060 think people

01:50:47.560 have made the

01:50:48.280 wrong decision

01:50:49.880 on.

01:50:51.080 They view it

01:50:52.200 differently than

01:50:53.240 I do.

01:50:54.780 I think most

01:50:55.940 people will tell

01:50:56.580 you millennials

01:50:57.200 are just a

01:50:59.400 death generation.

01:51:02.240 It's just going

01:51:02.900 to be, when

01:51:03.480 they are in

01:51:04.500 charge, it's

01:51:05.940 all going to

01:51:06.420 be over.

01:51:07.100 I think that

01:51:08.180 millennials are

01:51:09.500 curious.

01:51:11.240 They're hungry

01:51:12.240 for answers.

01:51:13.480 They're hungry

01:51:14.020 for, they

01:51:14.980 know this is

01:51:15.880 bull crap, and 0.69

01:51:17.500 those millennials

01:51:20.400 who are much

01:51:23.780 more aware

01:51:24.520 than I was

01:51:25.760 when I was in

01:51:26.800 my 20s and

01:51:27.520 early 30s, are

01:51:29.080 looking for

01:51:29.860 answers.

01:51:30.520 It's just hard

01:51:31.380 to find them, but

01:51:32.780 they are hard

01:51:33.880 working, they

01:51:35.000 are caring

01:51:35.920 people, and

01:51:37.340 they want

01:51:40.120 actual workable

01:51:42.040 answers.

01:51:42.520 them.

01:51:43.520 Am I wrong?

01:51:45.920 You're not

01:51:46.980 wrong.

01:51:47.460 You're very

01:51:47.980 much nail on

01:51:49.120 the head

01:51:49.440 there.

01:51:50.740 If I was to

01:51:52.020 go into that

01:51:52.620 subject, I

01:51:53.300 would mirror a

01:51:54.500 lot of what

01:51:54.900 you just said.

01:51:57.660 Just out of

01:51:59.180 sheer possibility

01:52:01.680 here, I'll take

01:52:02.720 myself as an

01:52:03.540 example here, and

01:52:05.680 my wife.

01:52:06.180 I'll take both

01:52:07.320 of us.

01:52:09.180 We are

01:52:10.440 dairy farmers,

01:52:11.880 and we are

01:52:13.860 struggling very,

01:52:15.160 very hard

01:52:15.720 lately.

01:52:17.140 I bet you

01:52:17.320 are.

01:52:18.740 But it's a

01:52:21.640 miracle that

01:52:22.760 God made us so

01:52:23.960 resilient as

01:52:25.020 humans.

01:52:26.000 We can take

01:52:26.620 things that are

01:52:27.340 out of whack

01:52:28.380 on an everyday

01:52:29.920 basis, and we

01:52:30.780 can still see the

01:52:31.860 light shining in.

01:52:32.700 I think

01:52:34.100 millennials can 0.87

01:52:34.860 do that better

01:52:35.400 than a lot of

01:52:36.340 other generations

01:52:37.120 because I can

01:52:39.640 mirror a lot of

01:52:40.420 also what

01:52:41.120 Caroline said

01:52:42.120 because we're

01:52:43.540 looking at

01:52:44.080 transitioning her

01:52:45.700 father's dairy

01:52:48.200 farm into our

01:52:49.040 own operation

01:52:50.020 here, big

01:52:51.600 picture, next

01:52:52.300 five to ten

01:52:53.000 years.

01:52:53.460 The vibe I

01:52:57.120 get from the

01:52:57.580 economy right

01:52:58.280 now is I

01:52:59.560 work a day

01:53:00.160 job to support

01:53:01.020 the farm, which

01:53:02.080 I have to.

01:53:02.720 I mean, it's

01:53:03.060 bad that you

01:53:03.620 have to do

01:53:04.060 that, but I

01:53:05.280 work an eight

01:53:06.440 to five job at

01:53:07.240 a feed mill, and

01:53:08.420 then we dairy

01:53:09.060 farm morning and

01:53:10.460 evening and

01:53:11.080 every weekend.

01:53:13.140 But the economy

01:53:13.840 in our general

01:53:14.920 area, I don't

01:53:17.080 know honestly how

01:53:17.860 I do it either.

01:53:18.640 Most of the

01:53:19.060 time I'm a

01:53:20.140 walking zombie.

01:53:21.840 Right, I bet.

01:53:23.920 The economy in

01:53:25.340 our general area

01:53:26.060 here is fairly

01:53:27.900 agricultural.

01:53:29.840 We're in

01:53:30.460 out central

01:53:31.360 Pennsylvania.

01:53:33.660 And our feed

01:53:34.560 mill is going

01:53:35.180 from a $3

01:53:35.720 million a year

01:53:36.600 company to a

01:53:37.340 $40 million a

01:53:38.380 year company in

01:53:39.840 the next two

01:53:40.360 years with a

01:53:41.580 couple contracts

01:53:42.280 that we have

01:53:42.860 gotten hold of.

01:53:46.080 So it looks

01:53:47.300 like the thing

01:53:49.040 I can see here

01:53:50.200 is that the

01:53:51.200 companies that

01:53:52.100 are in

01:53:53.460 conglomerated,

01:53:55.380 especially the

01:53:56.900 bigger farms

01:53:57.500 around here,

01:53:58.460 people that

01:53:58.980 have more

01:53:59.720 control over

01:54:00.620 what they

01:54:01.040 buy, buying

01:54:01.800 in bulk,

01:54:02.400 buying everything

01:54:03.180 in an aspect of

01:54:04.500 a corporation is

01:54:05.440 doing all right

01:54:06.240 right now.

01:54:07.120 But what's

01:54:07.860 dying out, and

01:54:08.740 you're literally

01:54:09.260 watching the

01:54:10.180 star burnout in

01:54:11.880 your own eyes

01:54:12.520 right now, is

01:54:13.320 family-owned

01:54:14.540 corporations,

01:54:15.820 family-owned

01:54:16.440 businesses are

01:54:17.760 taking a large

01:54:18.760 hit right now.

01:54:19.300 and there's

01:54:19.780 nothing to do

01:54:21.040 with Trump or

01:54:22.180 nothing to do

01:54:22.820 with Trump

01:54:23.700 disorder or

01:54:25.400 anything of that

01:54:26.600 nature.

01:54:27.460 It's the simple

01:54:28.480 fact that, Glenn,

01:54:30.180 I believe as a

01:54:31.320 millennial, I mean,

01:54:32.680 I'm not, I'm 26

01:54:33.620 years old, I

01:54:34.720 haven't been here

01:54:35.280 for the whole

01:54:35.740 show, but I'm a

01:54:36.920 student of history

01:54:37.640 and I believe that

01:54:38.600 if we don't learn

01:54:39.300 from this history

01:54:39.960 that this country

01:54:40.980 has gone through,

01:54:42.140 I mean, you're

01:54:42.980 doomed from the

01:54:43.820 get-go.

01:54:44.340 I mean, you live

01:54:45.380 in a country where

01:54:45.940 you have so many

01:54:46.900 things to learn

01:54:47.860 that have helped

01:54:50.160 the world, why

01:54:51.520 not learn from

01:54:52.240 it?

01:54:52.440 So what I see

01:54:53.540 here is we are

01:54:54.460 in capitalism, I

01:54:55.520 have no problem

01:54:56.120 with capitalism or

01:54:56.960 the free market,

01:54:58.080 but I believe, as

01:55:00.560 a theory, we have

01:55:01.720 reached a point in

01:55:02.980 our history that we

01:55:04.520 have never seen

01:55:05.220 before, and I

01:55:06.060 honestly don't know

01:55:07.060 if anyone's ever

01:55:07.900 prepared before, but

01:55:09.580 it seems like

01:55:10.160 everything has gotten

01:55:11.840 to the point where

01:55:12.540 it's so big that

01:55:14.960 it's like a tree

01:55:16.300 in the forest.

01:55:17.220 Every tree is

01:55:18.840 shining such a

01:55:19.920 large shadow right

01:55:20.780 now that nothing

01:55:21.600 small can live

01:55:22.500 underneath of it.

01:55:23.720 And the problem

01:55:24.380 is people get

01:55:25.140 this skew that,

01:55:27.380 oh, well, if we

01:55:28.140 just chop all the

01:55:28.800 big trees down,

01:55:30.080 i.e.

01:55:30.680 corporations, things

01:55:31.600 that have built

01:55:32.160 themselves up to

01:55:32.860 become big, well,

01:55:34.260 everything else will

01:55:34.940 be dandy.

01:55:35.820 Well, that's not

01:55:37.260 true.

01:55:37.780 I mean, if you

01:55:38.500 allow these bigger

01:55:39.580 companies to thrive

01:55:40.580 in their own way,

01:55:42.780 also giving a

01:55:44.880 avenue for these

01:55:46.240 smaller businesses

01:55:47.380 to develop and

01:55:49.380 thrive, I think we

01:55:50.760 are in for a grand

01:55:52.400 future, but right

01:55:53.600 now, especially in

01:55:55.140 farming, you're just

01:55:56.120 not seeing that

01:55:57.920 growth because it

01:55:58.940 seems like if you're

01:55:59.620 big, you're in it,

01:56:00.460 and if you're small,

01:56:01.860 you're not.

01:56:03.300 Mac, I appreciate

01:56:04.400 your phone call, and

01:56:05.740 I want to take your

01:56:06.580 analogy of the trees

01:56:09.760 and expand on it.

01:56:12.600 Do you know what the

01:56:13.140 largest living organism

01:56:14.400 is on Earth, at

01:56:17.120 least I think in the

01:56:17.800 Western Hemisphere?

01:56:18.620 I think it's on all

01:56:19.540 of Earth, but it's at

01:56:20.560 least in the Western

01:56:21.180 Hemisphere.

01:56:21.800 Do you know what it

01:56:22.220 is?

01:56:25.020 I would have to say a

01:56:26.120 whale, maybe?

01:56:28.000 No.

01:56:28.940 It's actually the

01:56:30.800 aspen forests in the

01:56:33.240 Rocky Mountains.

01:56:34.880 The aspens, and I know

01:56:36.180 this because I have

01:56:37.580 aspens up here in the

01:56:39.240 mountains, and what I

01:56:40.900 didn't know is that

01:56:42.320 aspens, they grow down,

01:56:46.700 obviously their roots,

01:56:47.960 and then their roots

01:56:48.900 spread out and they

01:56:50.440 grow up, and that

01:56:52.740 creates another aspen

01:56:54.140 tree.

01:56:54.820 So when one gets sick,

01:56:57.000 they all die.

01:56:58.960 If you start screwing

01:57:00.960 with the aspens, you can

01:57:02.600 lose the entire forest,

01:57:04.820 and that's what makes

01:57:07.240 aspens so beautiful is

01:57:09.960 they're so close

01:57:10.940 together and they're so

01:57:12.120 thick, but they are not

01:57:14.580 single living organisms

01:57:16.320 each tree.

01:57:17.980 It's one organism.

01:57:20.000 And I think when we look

01:57:21.480 at how big we are now,

01:57:23.180 that's the problem.

01:57:24.960 It's there.

01:57:25.800 Everything is connected,

01:57:27.300 and it's good to be

01:57:29.220 connected, but when there

01:57:30.780 is nothing else in the

01:57:32.740 forest, if those start

01:57:34.940 to go down, you got

01:57:36.900 nothing.

01:57:37.940 There's nothing and no

01:57:39.800 way anyone can replace

01:57:41.160 it.

01:57:41.700 We are not replacing our

01:57:43.280 farmers.

01:57:44.260 The average age of the

01:57:46.260 small farmer is 68

01:57:48.440 years old.

01:57:49.380 You're a freak of

01:57:50.240 nature.

01:57:51.400 If we don't pass on

01:57:53.220 this knowledge, if we

01:57:54.360 forget how the land

01:57:57.220 works and it just

01:57:58.260 becomes corporate

01:57:59.220 farms, we change

01:58:01.960 fundamentally as a

01:58:03.300 people and as a

01:58:04.740 country, and if that

01:58:06.460 forest ever starts to

01:58:07.780 go down, there's

01:58:09.760 nothing else underneath

01:58:10.680 it.

01:58:11.300 Thanks for your call.

01:58:12.040 We go to Abby in 0.83

01:58:13.440 North Carolina.

01:58:14.420 Hello, Abby.

01:58:16.260 Hello, Glenn.

01:58:17.460 How are you?

01:58:18.380 Thanks for taking my

01:58:19.240 call.

01:58:19.300 I'm very good.

01:58:19.980 Thank you.

01:58:20.560 I have two children.

01:58:21.840 One's 38, one's 19,

01:58:24.340 one's in college, and

01:58:25.540 one opted not to go to

01:58:27.340 college.

01:58:28.060 And they're both

01:58:28.840 Democrats.

01:58:29.200 Democrats, and

01:58:30.840 they're both firmly

01:58:33.020 Democrats, and I make

01:58:37.440 them prepare their

01:58:39.880 arguments.

01:58:40.660 You know, don't just

01:58:41.220 come to me with

01:58:41.940 rhetoric you see or

01:58:43.160 hear on Facebook or

01:58:46.120 Instagram.

01:58:47.600 So tell me why

01:58:49.080 they're Democrats.

01:58:52.660 I wish I knew, because

01:58:54.480 it's certainly not

01:58:55.260 hereditary.

01:58:55.840 my daughter is very

01:58:59.020 all about the planet

01:59:03.060 and literally stopped

01:59:05.660 eating beef because of

01:59:07.400 Leonardo DiCaprio.

01:59:09.620 So she refuses to eat

01:59:11.260 beef because of his

01:59:12.320 documentary.

01:59:14.220 Is she eating other

01:59:15.640 meats?

01:59:16.440 Like, my daughter is, my

01:59:17.720 daughter has gone

01:59:18.280 vegan.

01:59:19.440 She'll eat chicken.

01:59:20.980 That's it.

01:59:21.680 She'll only eat chicken. 0.76

01:59:22.760 But my daughter is

01:59:27.540 brilliant.

01:59:28.060 She's smart.

01:59:29.440 She's articulate.

01:59:31.680 She's been successful.

01:59:33.120 She's worked since she was

01:59:34.300 old enough to work.

01:59:35.400 So she knows that I

01:59:36.640 respect her right to have

01:59:38.040 an opinion.

01:59:39.260 However, the arguments

01:59:42.460 she'll come to me with

01:59:43.820 when, once I can

01:59:45.060 disprove them, it's like,

01:59:47.880 well, I still don't like

01:59:48.920 him.

01:59:49.120 Okay, well, I think

01:59:52.400 it's more, you know, so

01:59:53.400 I mean, that's

01:59:53.940 for Trump.

01:59:55.820 Yeah.

01:59:57.180 Yeah.

02:00:00.020 You know, there is

02:00:01.220 something to be said

02:00:02.200 with, you know, for

02:00:03.320 people who say, I just

02:00:05.080 don't like him.

02:00:06.280 I just didn't like

02:00:07.480 Hillary Clinton.

02:00:08.500 And I had things to

02:00:09.520 back it up.

02:00:10.540 But I just didn't like

02:00:11.980 her.

02:00:12.160 She was an unlikable 0.96

02:00:13.260 person.

02:00:13.820 She was very, very

02:00:14.740 fake.

02:00:15.200 So you're never going

02:00:17.500 to be able to get past

02:00:18.340 people when they're just

02:00:19.080 like, I just don't like

02:00:19.900 him.

02:00:20.440 I just don't like him.

02:00:23.800 However, you know, I'd

02:00:25.960 be interested in talking

02:00:28.000 to your children and

02:00:29.600 finding out what it is

02:00:31.640 about the policies of

02:00:34.280 the others, the crushing

02:00:37.400 of the free market.

02:00:39.700 And if you don't believe

02:00:40.660 me, just look at the

02:00:42.220 green jobs bill.

02:00:43.340 In fact, print that out

02:00:44.340 for your children and

02:00:46.000 say, what does this

02:00:47.400 say?

02:00:48.760 And print it out and

02:00:50.060 have them respond to it.

02:00:51.620 You have.

02:00:52.940 Oh, yeah.

02:00:54.180 I'm I'm always prepared

02:00:55.940 when they come to me

02:00:56.820 with their arguments.

02:00:58.280 And my son, who

02:01:00.100 is both my son and

02:01:03.040 daughter are completely

02:01:04.240 convinced that Biden is

02:01:05.860 the answer to our

02:01:07.180 future.

02:01:08.780 To which I can only

02:01:10.180 laugh.

02:01:11.080 If only he was a

02:01:12.580 candidate, that would 0.94

02:01:13.380 be fantastic for it.

02:01:16.660 You know, just getting

02:01:17.700 them to say, why?

02:01:19.520 What does he bring to

02:01:20.340 the table?

02:01:24.980 Well, it's Labor Day

02:01:26.340 weekend and Blinds.com

02:01:37.040 I'm up here.

02:01:37.640 We just restored an

02:01:38.940 1800s cabin.

02:01:41.740 It's 1880 and we've

02:01:43.740 worked a year on it.

02:01:45.600 And it's just it's just

02:01:47.280 so homey and beautiful.

02:01:48.740 I just love it.

02:01:49.700 I don't want to leave

02:01:50.900 it.

02:01:51.640 But I need to get some

02:01:52.940 I need to get some

02:01:53.780 shades for it.
