In this episode of the Glennon Doyle Show, Glenn talks about the return of the "Gods of the Copybook Headings" and why M&M's is under fire. Also, the new movie The Menu is out and it's a horror classic!
00:05:13.420Absolutely worth seeing if you like this kind of thing.
00:05:17.400But what this movie really says is really worth the price of admission.
00:05:28.780What this movie is actually saying about the view of the American left is much more terrifying than the plot.
00:05:37.740Now, spoiler alert, if you haven't seen it, I'm going to spoil some of it, but not all the stuff at the ending.
00:05:42.460But it's worth spoiling some of the plot because the unwritten motive of the writers or the producers or I don't know is much more interesting than the actual movie.
00:09:04.940So he introduces all of the courses and each course comes with a really unsettling monologue.
00:09:10.920After the third course, uncomfortable truths about each guest, you know, from embezzlement to affairs and everything else is printed on a tortilla.
00:09:21.600Each one gets an individual tortilla and something exposing them is on that tortilla.
00:09:28.360The fourth course comes out and the sous chef is crying and he's like, I thought I wanted this job.
00:09:55.520OK, then they go into all of the ways that things are going to happen to people.
00:10:02.300And what it is, is each guest was invited by the chef to come that night because he says they were responsible or contributed to him losing his passion for his craft or just making a living off of his work and the work of artisans.
00:10:28.380OK, so this is a very elitist chef who is talking about, you know, you are going to you're going to be dining on a whole ecosystem tonight.
00:10:39.200And it's all very just so pretentious, the entire thing.
00:10:44.640But he thinks the people that are there are pretentious and they are.
00:10:49.280And he says, you know, nobody's going to walk out of here alive.
00:10:53.100Now, the girl that was not supposed to be there, we find out that she's a hooker.
00:10:59.140OK, and she was hired to be there with that guy.
00:12:16.600And art gives everything in life meaning.
00:12:20.520Now, I'm used to going to a movie and seeing the bad guy being, you know, a white guy, you know, some European Nazi, you know, white supremacist, an oil guy, a Trump voter, conservative, you know, just even a Republican.
00:12:38.020The targets and Hollywood movies usually are, you know, from the farmlands, the hapless boob from the small town or somebody who doesn't understand Los Angeles or doesn't wear black like all those in the know in New York City.
00:12:52.140But here, the nihilist protagonist is himself a disgruntled elite.
00:13:01.380No question, he's an elite, most likely lefty.
00:13:10.080And he finds abhorrent, not the people in the heartland.
00:13:16.240He finds abhorrent the people in his own class.
00:13:20.140OK, so if you look at the list, you have a member of the critic class.
00:13:27.320This person just lives to set the rule and taste for everybody else.
00:13:31.480The character is really very much the real life.
00:13:34.940Remember the movie Devil Wears Prada, the real monster, Anna Wintour.
00:13:38.720This person is so caught up in their own world of their own making that everything not uttered by them is beneath them.
00:13:47.780Now, this this dialogue between these two characters, her and his her assistant, sounds like any broadcast of MSNBC.
00:13:59.620It reads like the New York Times editorial board.
00:14:02.920It's the conversations, you know, you would hear from professors who have convinced themselves of all this gobbledygook on any university.
00:14:11.060It sounds like the World Economic Forum or the Washington Post or New York Times editorial.
00:15:41.660Now, so far, do any of these characters sound like conservatives?
00:15:46.660Then there's the vain Hollywood type that will do or say anything just to keep his stardom alive and his guest, a producer who helped or enabled him.
00:15:56.620Then the angel investor, the angel investor, the angel investor was invited and had to die because he thought compromises should be made in the budget after covid.
00:16:06.560While the chef knew there can be no compromise on art.
00:16:12.420OK, the evil Silicon Valley financiers who are driven to greed and profit no matter what it takes.
00:16:19.520The foodie, who is also a fake while he talked a good game, you know, he did it to appear like an elite.
00:16:27.940He would be better than everyone else, but without any merit whatsoever.
00:16:32.380So far, what you have is the World Economic Forum.
00:16:38.060What you have is a microcosm of what we stand against.
00:16:58.900Even though it's clear what she does by the, you know, really towards the beginning of the movie, she's identified as a giver, not a taker, as an artist, someone who understands the art of giving to others.
00:19:28.320After the first course, which is you, middle America, and all that that implies or represents, the following courses are all going to be the elite.
00:19:38.660Those higher elites who find that they, the other people around them are not quite elite enough, and they're all driven to madness by the loss of meaning.
00:19:52.800So, the loss of meaning is what drives this, and that is what's happening because of what society is teaching.
00:20:11.980When words have no lasting meaning, when all of our idols are smashed into dust, when the story that holds us all together is shredded or lost, when our gods are money, power, and consumption, when our intellectuals only engage in what is mental masturbation over applied science and applied philosophy.
00:20:34.940There is no truth, and your only chance to grow in this society is to become a sycophant yes-man and just never ask any questions.
00:20:45.380Just live your life day after day as a featherless parrot.
00:20:49.400Of course, you're not going to find any meaning in that.
00:20:56.100The Menu is a really good movie, but what it says about the elite ruling class and social class is worth more than the ticket price.
00:21:06.600Because you witness in this movie what comes after the world slips into madness and the terror-filled return of eternal truths.
00:21:20.380This is the end of the gods of the copybook headings, and it actually kind of, for a dark comedy, actually kind of, in the end, filled me with hope because I'm pretty sure the writers get it, but I'm not sure any of the elites in Hollywood get it.
00:21:42.020The film is wonderful, and you should see the cinematography, and all of that crap, which it's mocking and saying, you really don't have a reason to live.
00:22:33.580If you're anything like me, you've invested a ton of time and effort, even money, into preserving your family's memories down through the years.
00:24:45.700Everything that is given power today is meaningless.
00:24:49.220And it's all part of that woke culture.
00:24:52.720Last year, and I can't take this, and I'm only going to address this once.
00:24:56.920Last year, the M&M spokescandies, there's no such thing as a spokescandy, got a refreshed look to reflect today's society.
00:25:09.080I don't know about you, but as I'm getting ready to watch a movie, and I see the M&M guys, you know, strapped to that rocket about to go off,
00:25:19.420all I'm thinking is, can we stop with this stupid commercial?
00:25:58.860Yesterday, the M&M Mars company made a statement announcing an indefinite pause on their spokescandies because they realized that even a candy shoe can be polarizing,
00:26:10.960which is the last thing M&M's wanted because they were just trying to bring people together.
00:32:21.960The gist of their right wing comedy argument is conservatives shouldn't be allowed to make jokes because their human humor is actually a complex.
00:32:30.700And when they say complex, they mean a mental illness.
00:33:43.060I mean, they think they are capable of humor because, as the author of the book about right wing comedy wrote, liberals are inherently free thinking.
00:33:52.900So, here's what all of this is really all about.
00:33:56.560Liberals don't like the fact that you can laugh.
00:34:03.140Well, you know what they hated about Ronald Reagan the most?
00:34:52.140Lorne Michaels, the creator of Saturday Night Live, he said in an interview, the reason why SNL tends to roast conservatives more than liberals is, quote, Republicans are easier than Democrats.
00:36:07.220Unless you live under a rock, you probably have a cell phone and a cell phone carrier, and you are also probably paying way too much for your service.
00:36:15.060Not to mention the fact that you're one with one of those big companies like Verizon or AT&T, and you're sending money to corporations who turn around and donate to leftist causes.
00:36:25.160Patriot Mobile is now offering service with all three major networks, which means you're going to be with the same three if you want to be.
00:36:34.520But if you want to be, you like their service, but you hate their values.
00:36:38.920You can access their service without the values.
00:36:43.260You're going to pay a much lower cost, which, gosh darn it, that will hurt them on their charitable giving.
00:36:50.980This also comes with a performance guarantee.
00:36:52.940If you're not happy with your coverage, switch among all three major carriers for free.
00:36:57.900Now, if you want to get rid of them entirely, you're going to save a buttload of money, and you're going to join a company that shares your values and will not stand up, say, shout your abortion.
00:37:08.200100% U.S.-based customer service team will make switching easy for you today.
00:39:35.320Well, the geese starts, you know, flying in the other direction or swimming in the other direction, whichever one they're doing down there.
00:43:38.520We're doing all kinds of great experiments now with electricity and energy.
00:43:43.420By the way, did you see the, what was it, the Norwegian cruise lines?
00:43:49.620They've decided that they're not going to put any electric vehicles on any of their ships.
00:43:54.260You know, they're not going to transport them at all because a fire could break out.
00:43:57.820That would be really, really, really bad.
00:44:01.500Man, this green energy thing is really working out for.
00:44:04.160Oh, by the way, the other thing is we found out yesterday that, you know, the big windmills, you know, as large as the Statue of Liberty are just starting to collapse for some reason.
00:44:15.920Boy, I hope our government's invested in those companies.
00:45:05.060Ramon, I'm glad to hear that your wife is feeling better, and I hope that she just keeps feeling better and better the more she takes Relief Factor.
00:56:43.460And it essentially does turn into zombie apocalypse, unfortunately, because our National Guard isn't going to be there.
00:56:53.280You think about – the two steps are – if it's nationwide, it's one thing if power goes out in Louisiana because we're there in Arkansas and Texas and can supply.
00:57:04.280But if it's nationwide, we essentially don't have that.
00:57:09.120We'd be counting on France to send us food and water.
00:57:14.060If our water systems go out, human beings die after three days without water, and therefore that obviously is an issue.
00:57:25.600And then you look at an extended period of time.
00:58:42.080By the way, when you look at the ones that are sabotaging, people shooting into them, we don't have those, you know, replacement parts just kind of hanging out.
00:58:56.960So we talk in the film about transformers, and especially our highest-volume transformers.
00:59:05.580These weigh hundreds of tons, and most of those are made in South Korea and Germany.
00:59:14.100And there could be a long lead time for those.
00:59:17.780And, therefore, there's huge risk if they are taken out.
00:59:24.140And you look at our substations, you can walk around your suburban neighborhood, and you could see them being protected by chain-link fences.
01:01:01.180Their salary-based mortgage consultants can help guide you through the process of creating a custom loan that will align with your financial goals.
01:02:38.880Let me go to a problem closer to home.
01:02:42.140By the way, the power grid thing is so important.
01:02:45.520And I think I'd like to get I thought he was going to talk about, you know, the problems that we're going to have with the power grid just because it's just completely outdated for what we're going to have to have with all of this electricity.
01:02:57.480It's going to go down and the rolling blackouts and everything out.
01:03:02.980And those are deadly, deadly to a society and economy and everything else.
01:03:08.480But we start having people start to shoot our substations.
01:03:12.840It goes dark quickly, and you don't bring that back up quickly.
01:03:22.660We're going to try to look at something a little closer to home, even though that one you should be calling Congress and your senators about.
01:03:56.640Yes, it's got the power of probiotics.
01:03:58.540And that means that it helps target skin redness, pesky wrinkles and fine lines, patchy blotches and other visible signs of premature aging that you don't need.
01:04:07.280And yes, I'm talking about the same kind of probiotics that you can find in things like yogurt.
01:04:10.880These super ingredients have the same nourishing benefits and goodness for your skin.
01:04:15.920Probiotic extracts target bad bacteria and restore balance to your skin's protective barrier, creating a shield around you, your skin from all signs of visible aging.

01:06:25.820You know, I've been talking to you about struggles in my own family and with my children and in schools and in social media and all of this stuff.
01:06:38.640And I was with a counselor for my children recently, and I didn't even know if I could trust them, you know, and so I just asked some really frank questions.
01:06:57.600And I just wanted to gauge, should I even have this person, you know, as a psychologist looking and listening and talking to my children at all?
01:07:06.220Or are they are they have they joined the madness bandwagon as well?
01:07:09.780What we don't think about, we think about our teachers, we don't think about our counselors.
01:07:19.520Alvin Louie is the the president of Courage is a Habit.
01:07:24.580He's a guy who got out of California just in time only to move his family to the Midwest and realize, oh, crap, it's happening here, too.
01:07:42.780So I wanted you on because I wanted to talk about a couple of things.
01:07:46.340Courage, which is your philosophy on it is just spot on.
01:07:50.620But also, you're talking about the school counselors are perhaps even more trouble or just an invisible trouble that we don't we don't really see.
01:08:06.880And they're not invisible as much as they're just hiding in plain sight, because, you see, the parents believe that the school counselors and social workers are just like the guidance counselors of the past that they grew up with.
01:08:21.040Help you with academics, maybe talk to you a little bit if there's something bothering you, but then really bring the parents in if there's something serious.
01:09:24.640It's a private organization, which is where the real deviousness comes in, Glenn, because this is a private company impacting public education where the parents have no, they can't say, can I, I'm going to foyer.
01:09:41.300Okay, I'm going to, for those of you who know, it's a record request, open record request to say, let me see what your, what your counselors are being trained under with ASCA.
01:09:49.240The schools who go, that's got nothing to do with us.
01:09:50.840And so what we, because of this private public scam there, what we did last summer was our team went to their annual conference, ASCA's, the American School Counselor Association.
01:10:04.240They had an annual conference in July of last year.
01:10:07.300And we grabbed as many of their videos, PowerPoints, training materials.
01:10:12.960Since then, we've also went to their webinars, their certifications.
01:10:34.160They train the counselors on how to gaslight parents, how to move the goposts.
01:10:38.720And largely Courage is a Habit, if everybody, if anybody goes to Courage is a Habit.org, we have a whole series there called Behind Closed Doors.
01:10:47.260And it's our campaign to expose them in their own natural habitat.
01:10:54.340We're not putting, cobbling things together.
01:10:56.380We're literally just showing their training materials and videos in their own natural habitat.
01:11:03.140And then we give, most importantly, we give parents tools on how to fight back.
01:11:07.160Opt-out forms, how to move around the gaslighting, how to ask the right questions, you know, how to put some pressure back so that they're not just sitting there getting, well, what's the matter?
01:13:25.420And so the school counselors, they're redefining two terms.
01:13:28.300Because if you redefine words, you don't have to change the laws.
01:13:32.160And so the two terms that they're redefining, the school counselors and the social workers, are safe and abuse.
01:13:37.400So up to this point, everybody knows what an unsafe environment means for a child.
01:13:42.960But they've now redefined and expanded that term to say, if you don't succumb to the transgender delusion, if you don't call them by the pronouns, you're unsafe.
01:13:53.780Then once they get the parents to that, they move the go post and go, well, if you don't agree with the breast binders or tucking, now you're unsafe and then you're abusive.
01:14:45.240When they talk about empathy, they mean training girls from a very young age so that when a man showers next to them, they better have empathy.
01:14:52.680So the question I want to leave your listeners or parents is that every time they tell you we're just doing X, I want you to ask this one question.
01:14:59.520Through whose lens are you teaching that?
01:15:01.480Because that lens matters because traits are not good or bad.
01:17:11.060I cannot think of something that would be more worthy of God's protection than saving the unborn, saving the children in slavery, saving his children, no matter what that means.
01:17:25.140There are states how they are proposing legislation to allow abortions even after birth.
01:19:43.720School counselors who are being taught to lie and gaslight parents of their children and push them towards this gender re-identification program.
01:20:00.300If I said that and you believed it, people would be out in the streets 25 years ago.
01:20:47.020I didn't reveal that at the beginning.
01:20:48.380I just did the monologue and it was about chat GPT and the negative effects that could come from it and what conservatives have to say about it and all this.
01:20:56.360And I had chat GPT write the entire thing at the end of the monologue said, by the way, that that previous monologue was completely written by chat GPT.
01:21:03.080And like, well, it's not like 100% look clunky in a couple of spots.
