00:00:55.420 First, my Patriot Supply.

00:00:56.900 I'm a big fan of food, you know?

00:00:59.220 I mean, look at me.

00:01:00.940 It's not too hard to tell that.

00:01:03.260 However, I'm even a bigger fan of food when it's essential to life.

00:01:10.400 And we could have any kind of problem here in America

00:01:13.760 and we would have a hard time finding food for our children and for our families.

00:01:18.200 Do not find yourself at the whims of someone else.

00:01:23.520 Make sure that you have enough food for your family in case of an emergency situation.

00:02:03.880 MyPatriotSupply.com

00:02:05.220 Prepare MyPatriotSupply.com

00:02:08.380 All right.

00:02:10.340 So today, I really want to talk to people who disagree with me.

00:02:19.340 Because I don't, you can disagree with me on things and, you know, that's normal.

00:02:27.700 But I really don't understand people who, for instance, are Democrat and at this point, hasn't seen what is happening to our country and what has happened to the Democratic Party.

00:02:46.100 So I want to talk to common sense Democrats.

00:02:49.720 And what I mean is, I don't, no political hacks.

00:02:53.160 I want honest conversation.

00:02:55.280 I'm not going to try to change your mind.

00:02:57.000 I want you to know up front.

00:02:58.180 I'm not going to try to change your mind.

00:03:00.180 I am not going to, you know, make you look foolish or anything else.

00:03:05.380 I never invite people.

00:03:07.740 This is probably the longest running rule we have.

00:03:12.740 If I invite people into my house, I do not embarrass them or bring them in unless they know.

00:03:22.700 If you say, this is not going to be a pleasant conversation, then they know coming in.

00:03:28.440 You're not walking into a friendly room.

00:03:30.780 You're walking into a friendly room.

00:03:32.860 I'm not trying to change your mind.

00:03:34.360 I am not trying to argue with you.

00:03:37.180 I really, truly just want to listen and understand.

00:03:41.220 So I'm going to ask questions, but they'll be honest questions not to not to make you look bad or to win.

00:03:46.880 And if I want to call you stupid, I'll shut up.

00:03:51.660 Okay.

00:03:52.140 That's my promise.

00:03:53.480 To me, in case you want to call me stupid.

00:03:56.240 Oh, I'll call you stupid whenever I want.

00:03:58.260 I'm just saying to a caller who you're promising you'll be nice to, I won't then inject in the conversation and call you stupid while you're being nice.

00:04:07.600 Thank you, Stu.

00:04:08.600 See?

00:04:08.820 This is how you come together, America.

00:04:11.500 We're modeling this behavior for you.

00:04:14.200 I'm wondering.

00:04:15.060 So we're opening up the phones now, 888-727-BECK, and it can be a lot of things.

00:04:20.680 It can be, you know, you voted for Joe Biden, and you're seeing things now, but you can't bring yourself to vote for a Republican.

00:04:31.320 Okay.

00:04:31.880 Believe me, I understand that.

00:04:32.960 I just want to understand where you are.

00:04:38.660 I don't want to just preach to the choir.

00:04:41.840 I really want to understand the people who are sitting in the pews or the people who are outside of the church going, this is a sham inside that church.

00:04:51.800 888-727-BECK.

00:04:54.080 So while we're screening through the calls, can you give me a, like, are you looking for someone, let's say, who was a Clinton or Biden voter in the past two elections?

00:05:04.800 Something like that.

00:05:05.580 Or Obama.

00:05:06.620 Yeah, Clinton or Obama.

00:05:07.680 Or Obama, yeah.

00:05:08.120 Okay.

00:05:08.580 Someone who's voted in the past, maybe someone who is looking at this election and saying, you know, I don't like what Biden's doing, but I can't deal with Trump or DeSantis or any of these Republicans.

00:05:19.940 Preferably, but I don't know if anybody would call in, but preferably somebody who says, I still like Biden.

00:05:28.860 I still like him.

00:05:29.800 I voted for him and I still like him.

00:05:31.580 Or, yeah, maybe, like, even though if you don't think he's the most dynamic candidate in the world, you like the policies better than you like the Republican policy.

00:05:39.660 And, you know, you, you, you see what the media is saying about him as accurate.

00:05:46.000 What about this person?

00:05:48.020 Because the media says this person does not exist.

00:05:51.100 A person who was a Trump over Clinton voter, but in those four years switched to Biden.

00:05:58.280 And we know there were, you know, a lot of those people, Trump, Trump, then Biden, now coming back to Trump.

00:06:03.420 Because they say once you switch from Trump, you're never going back to Trump.

00:06:07.620 So if you're Trump Biden, you're going to be Biden again.

00:06:10.700 That's what the media keeps telling us.

00:06:12.800 So a Trump Biden, Trump person.

00:06:15.680 If they exist.

00:06:16.920 Do they exist?

00:06:17.740 Okay.

00:06:18.380 We're like, we're like those, uh, you know, nature shows where we're like going through the forests.

00:06:22.600 Right.

00:06:22.980 We're like looking for a rare creature that has never before been discovered.

00:06:27.520 So Kathy is a common sense Democrat and she's in Florida.

00:06:30.940 Hello, Kathy.

00:06:31.920 Thank you for listening.

00:06:34.080 Hi.

00:06:34.760 Hi.

00:06:35.300 How are you?

00:06:36.040 Very good.

00:06:36.900 I'm, I'm excited that you talk to me because I'm wondering when somebody with my thoughts are going to be popping on your radio show.

00:06:45.360 Really?

00:06:47.080 Well, I'm glad right now you're here.

00:06:49.860 I'm glad.

00:06:51.380 Okay.

00:06:52.480 So tell me your thoughts.

00:06:53.960 Where are you and what are you, what have you been thinking?

00:06:58.500 Well, I'm disgusted with all the old guys running for office.

00:07:02.280 And the fact that our, we just seem to be stuck in name games and name calling instead of worrying about what's happening to me, the average American who makes under a hundred thousand dollars a year.

00:07:14.540 And I don't care what side of the aisle you're on there.

00:07:18.660 They're, they're just, they're all in the, they're just not in it for me.

00:07:23.440 Well, I can understand that.

00:07:27.560 Now, is there, is there, um, anyone on the horizon that you, even if they're not running, that you would say this person?

00:07:37.120 Well, surprisingly, you know, the debate for the Republican was pretty good, but we're not going to end up with a woman president.

00:07:46.800 So I don't even want to mention her name.

00:07:49.080 Oh, so no, no, no.

00:07:49.700 Nikki Haley.

00:07:50.500 So you like Nikki Haley.

00:07:52.220 When, what do you like about her?

00:07:53.520 Um, she seems willing to listen to everybody.

00:08:00.320 I mean, the whole abortion question was very, you know, more centered on let's make a medical decision and not let's make a law.

00:08:11.780 And, you know, there are women who have medical issues who almost die because the doctors are afraid to abort and the dot, the child is, you know, that that's not a viable, a viable fetus.

00:08:26.080 So, or maybe, or whatever you want to call, you know, and the doctors are afraid they're going to lose their license and the woman almost loses her life because how sick do you have to be to be, um, you know, endangered your, your life endangered.

00:08:40.360 And I just think that we're taking too many things, you know, here in Florida, you can't take a factual book about two penguins who happen to be male and raise an egg, you know, not the fact that it's just two birds that don't normally do things.

00:08:54.740 It's just the fact that they're good birds, you know, I mean, and we have to take that out of the school because it's, okay, so you want to be interested in your child's life, be interested in your child's life, not your neighbor's child's life.

00:09:08.600 Okay.

00:09:09.040 Um, so, so, so where, where do you stand on schools and what's being taught, uh, in schools?

00:09:17.060 Are you fine with the, uh, you know, drag queen story hour or drag queen story hour, I think is fine at the public library.

00:09:29.040 And, you know, I can understand, I can see where parents should be able to up their kids out of that.

00:09:35.220 And I don't know how many drag queens actually go into the schools. 1.00

00:09:38.340 So, you know, so that, that, that, that I understand where parents can have a problem with that, but the library is a fine place to have that.

00:09:47.360 So that now choice to bring your child there or not, would you be fine with Kirk Cameron coming in with religious, uh, centered books into the library?

00:09:58.740 Sure.

00:10:01.160 You have the choice to bring your child there or not.

00:10:04.080 Okay.

00:10:05.440 Do you, school just needs to be story hour.

00:10:08.500 Pardon me?

00:10:09.080 And, you know, bring a politician in maybe, I don't know, let Rick Scott go read a book for Kamala Harris.

00:10:16.480 Not that we're going to get a VP in there or a Senator, but you know.

00:10:19.140 So where do you stand, so where do you stand on parental rights in school on, um, you know, the parents having a right to know what their kids are doing?

00:10:34.740 If they're transitioning, do the parents have a right to know that? 0.99

00:10:43.940 Your child goes to school six or seven hours a day, and then you have them for 18.

00:10:50.120 If you don't know what's going on with them, how involved of a parent are you is my first question.

00:10:55.600 Okay.

00:10:56.700 Um, now let's, let's say that's, you know, let's just accept that premise.

00:11:03.520 Um, but should the school be able to keep information from you?

00:11:08.300 I don't think they should be able to hide information, but I certainly don't think that they need to be saying your child wants to be called by a different name today.

00:11:20.420 You know, there are children, especially little, you know, the younger kids.

00:11:24.680 I mean, sometimes they want to be a dog, you know?

00:11:27.880 I mean, they're just, they're just trying on what they hear in the world, what they hear at home, what they hear, you know, in school.

00:11:35.920 And so is, do you think that's healthy mentally for them?

00:11:43.340 I mean, I'm not talking about little kids.

00:11:45.560 I'm talking about, you know, teenagers that say, I, I'm a dog.

00:11:51.360 Or I'm a girl who says, I'm a boy.

00:11:55.140 Should that just be accepted?

00:11:56.760 I think we should help them.

00:12:01.680 Wouldn't it be nice if we had some counselors at school so they could help them instead of one for every five high schools or, you know, two guidance counselors for 3,000 students in a high school?

00:12:12.080 Sure.

00:12:12.720 But should the parents be involved in that?

00:12:15.740 Should the parents be notified if a school counselor is notified that they honestly think that they're a boy?

00:12:23.040 I think they should ask their, I think they should be finding out if they've talked to their parents and encouraged them to talk to their parents.

00:12:31.720 But I think we have a, I think, I think that's a small percentage of students.

00:12:35.460 I think we have more bullies and we're concentrating on this.

00:12:38.860 And we have more bullies who then go and shoot up schools.

00:12:43.480 You know, and that's a bigger problem.

00:12:45.260 I mean, if your child is trying to be trans and you don't know about it and you're upset about it, that's not going to affect me as much as your child is a bully and you know about it and you don't do anything and they go in and they shoot up my child. 0.93

00:13:03.300 Yeah, I mean, I think those are two different issues.

00:13:07.240 They are.

00:13:07.760 Yeah.

00:13:08.060 But my whole thing is we're spending too much time and energy.

00:13:13.140 Florida is wasting so much time and energy on this.

00:13:15.660 And we have a rent and a rent, housing and insurance crisis right now.

00:13:20.760 I mean, it's $1,200 for 400 square feet.

00:13:23.760 No, I know.

00:13:24.380 And we're making $12 or $14 an hour.

00:13:26.640 So what's the problem?

00:13:27.920 That's the 2% of the children that want to be something they're not born into.

00:13:32.520 We're wasting too much energy politically on stuff that is not.

00:13:37.740 So let me ask you, what is causing the high rise in prices of homes in Florida?

00:13:46.460 Well, that's a good question.

00:13:50.080 Well, I mean, do you have any thoughts on that?

00:13:53.100 Are you talking about the cost of the house or are you talking about the rent?

00:13:56.300 The cost or the rent.

00:13:57.440 What would be the cause of rising rents?

00:14:04.020 Greed.

00:14:06.100 Greed?

00:14:06.800 Supply and demand.

00:14:07.760 Yeah, greed.

00:14:08.880 If I raise the price, they'll have to pay it.

00:14:12.800 And if they don't, somebody else will.

00:14:16.340 Okay, you were going to say the second one, which is supply and demand.

00:14:20.440 And that's different than greed.

00:14:22.820 But there are plenty of houses for sale right now.

00:14:25.500 But you can't afford the 20% down because you don't make enough money.

00:14:31.300 So you have to rent.

00:14:34.200 So why do we have the problem?

00:14:36.580 If you're lying about work court, there's workforce housing and they're overcharging for that. 0.82

00:14:42.160 They're overcharging what the law allows for workforce housing. 0.68

00:14:46.580 You know, the government's not doing its job in tracking the important things that help lower cost people.

00:14:51.960 They're not helping the insurance go down.

00:14:55.820 You know, state insurance companies have left South Florida for homeowners.

00:15:00.160 That's a lot.

00:15:02.720 Can I get back to the housing thing?

00:15:07.880 What is causing the price to go up?

00:15:09.980 I mean, besides greed.

00:15:18.140 Hello?

00:15:19.360 I don't know.

00:15:20.580 You know, I mean, I'm not.

00:15:21.360 Could it could it be that the other states that are raising taxes and stifling business and stifling people on making choices for people instead of letting them make their own choices, that that influx of that many people is driving the housing prices up?

00:15:42.040 We don't have a ton of people coming down.

00:15:45.580 We're not bringing in new businesses.

00:15:47.360 But what is happening is people can work remotely now.

00:15:51.040 The weather is much better here than it is everywhere else.

00:15:54.360 OK, so it's a weather thing.

00:15:57.120 Well, it's beautiful.

00:15:58.460 I mean, I know I've lived in Florida.

00:16:00.180 I know.

00:16:01.540 I know.

00:16:03.120 All right.

00:16:03.900 Kathy, thank you for calling.

00:16:06.360 I appreciate it.

00:16:07.120 You're welcome.

00:16:07.560 You bet.

00:16:08.720 You bet.

00:16:09.560 You bet.

00:16:09.940 You bet.

00:16:10.360 That was very difficult, especially for Stu.

00:16:15.940 Don't say, no, I just want to listen to people today.

00:16:20.040 I may not be able to make it three hours, but I'm I'm I.

00:16:25.940 I learned something there.

00:16:28.040 It's interesting to hear her list of concerns and.

00:16:32.780 No, it is.

00:16:33.760 It is.

00:16:34.200 And it's and it's there's a disconnect there.

00:16:38.800 And I don't know what it is and I don't know how to help it, but there is a disconnect.

00:16:45.180 We're looking for things that maybe we can connect and help people.

00:16:51.220 And she can help me understand what people are feeling.

00:16:56.140 And I will tell you that, you know, I tend to think that it is the Fed and the the banks

00:17:02.600 and the government that have all colluded to, you know, make money for the people at the

00:17:09.060 very, very top and the things like ESG and BlackRock that are coming in and just buying up all these homes

00:17:18.180 at at higher prices than even offered.

00:17:22.520 You know, I think there's there's a lot to do with that, but also supply and demand on the influx of people.

00:17:29.660 And there is a huge influx of people in Florida and in Texas and some of these other freer states.

00:17:37.720 All right.

00:17:38.420 Let me talk to you about relief factor.

00:17:41.240 That was that was good.

00:17:42.720 That was a good summary of what just happened.

00:17:45.560 It is.

00:17:46.360 I know.

00:17:46.600 I thought you did a good job.

00:17:47.620 Yeah, you did.

00:17:48.580 You you kept to your promise.

00:17:50.740 And so did I, by the way.

00:17:51.920 I know.

00:17:52.400 But you were making faces.

00:17:54.220 Not on the radio.

00:17:55.180 I wasn't.

00:17:55.580 No, not on the radio.

00:17:56.680 No, I wasn't.

00:17:57.280 You were a Blaze TV subscriber.

00:17:59.680 I ended it and I thought I ended it because I thought you were going to leave a piece of

00:18:06.080 your tongue on your desk. 0.54

00:18:07.800 I thought you were biting your tongue so hard.

00:18:11.040 I just didn't want to see the blood.

00:18:13.180 Anyway, are you one of the millions of Americans?

00:18:16.400 And I appreciate her calling in.

00:18:18.240 Yes.

00:18:18.720 OK.

00:18:19.460 You one of the millions of Americans who live their lives in frequent and often debilitating pain.

00:18:24.840 If so, what would you give to be free?

00:18:27.760 Living in pain is a lonely existence.

00:18:30.060 Believe me, I was in pain.

00:18:31.760 My hands were so bad.

00:18:33.480 I couldn't hold a paintbrush.

00:18:35.240 I couldn't write with a pen for very long, like two, three minutes.

00:18:40.000 And my hands would just I couldn't do it anymore.

00:18:42.880 I'm learning to play the piano.

00:18:45.840 I started this week.

00:18:47.480 Now, I'm not saying I'm going to be any good at it, but you don't do that if your hands are in pain like my hands were in pain.

00:19:07.980 Okay, I don't want to start with, I don't want to start with anybody because I want to spend time today actually listening and talking and just asking questions.

00:19:26.540 Michelle in Kansas, Jacob in Washington, Matthew, North Carolina.

00:19:34.840 Michelle says she'd vote RFK Jr. over Trump.

00:19:39.760 Love to hear that.

00:19:40.760 Disagree about free education.

00:19:43.340 Really want to hear that.

00:19:44.720 Disagree about the state of the country.

00:19:47.340 Great things.

00:19:48.280 So, if you are somebody who has, who you happen to be listening to this program, you're listening for a reason today.

00:19:58.000 I don't know what it is, but you're here for a reason.

00:20:01.020 And if you happen to really disagree, I want to know how you got there.

00:20:05.240 And I guess, you know, with Kathy talking about, you know, drag queen story hour, and there's no way to really know, and I don't think people would say this, but, you know, even Bill Maher said, you know, that no one is going to say a man could have a baby.

00:20:27.840 He said that five years ago.

00:20:29.680 His audience laughed at the idea that men could have a baby and that, oh, he even said, you know, where are you getting that, right winger?

00:20:40.500 Now that is accepted.

00:20:43.660 And so I'd like to know what changed your mind on that, because that was a very, very narrow view.

00:20:52.820 What changed so many people's minds?

00:20:55.220 What new evidence did you get that this is okay, the mutilation of our children?

00:21:04.900 You know, do you see the effects on another subject of the Fed?

00:21:09.980 Who's responsible for the prices going up?

00:21:14.260 What is causing that?

00:21:17.320 I promise you I am not going to make you look foolish, and I won't.

00:21:21.540 I'm not trying to change your mind.

00:21:23.160 I just want to listen to you.

00:21:25.960 The number is 888-727-BECK.

00:21:29.320 Michelle, Jacob, Matt, we're on the way next.

00:21:32.460 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:21:34.600 One of the things I love best about Patriot Mobile is they let you know right up front who they are.

00:21:40.660 Let me give you an example.

00:21:42.140 If you're with Verizon, did you know that they are donating to Planned Parenthood?

00:21:47.260 So, that's who they are.

00:21:50.200 Okay.

00:21:51.100 That's fine.

00:21:51.800 If that's who they are, that's fine.

00:21:53.780 But I don't want, I mean, I was promised my tax dollars would not go to abortion.

00:21:59.060 Now, that's in the rear view mirror.

00:22:01.560 I don't want my money going to fund abortion.

00:22:05.320 You do?

00:22:06.220 Stay with Verizon.

00:22:07.100 If you don't, go with Patriot Mobile.

00:22:11.160 Patriot Mobile donates money to conservative causes, American causes, not things like Planned Parenthood.

00:22:17.800 Sorry, Verizon.

00:22:19.420 Patriot Mobile is 100% U.S.-based.

00:22:24.140 Their support team is standing by to help you make switching easy for you.

00:22:59.100 I hope our first caller is still listening.

00:23:21.140 You know, she was worried about housing and she's right to worry about housing. 0.98

00:23:25.440 But when you look at it, and this is where we need to focus, and I don't want to change anybody's mind when they're on.

00:23:34.480 If they listen, that's great.

00:23:36.640 I just want to ask you questions.

00:23:38.580 But when it comes to housing, the reason why our housing prices are so high right now, a few reasons.

00:23:44.160 One, after 08, there was no supply.

00:23:47.980 We didn't build new places because nobody wanted to take that risk afterwards.

00:23:54.260 We didn't do it because of 2020.

00:23:56.640 Everything became bogged down.

00:23:58.220 So there are fewer houses that are available.

00:24:02.620 Then the interest rates also play a very big role on not being able to afford a house.

00:24:08.320 Those interest rates are set by the Fed to control inflation.

00:24:11.720 What causes inflation?

00:24:13.160 Spending and printing too much money.

00:24:15.580 We are $2 trillion over our budget this year alone.

00:24:21.900 Then you have the pressure of places like BlackRock and Vanguard that are buying up whole communities because they want to be a renter.

00:24:33.620 Why?

00:24:34.640 Because they understand where the world is being pushed with Build Back Better, the WEF we talk about in the Great Reset.

00:24:43.940 That is, you will own nothing and you will rent everything.

00:24:48.920 Well, someone's going to own those things and those someones believe they are BlackRock and Vanguard.

00:24:56.800 That's what the fundamentals are happening.

00:25:00.320 And then you add things like you've got a governor who is making business easier and not restricting people so they can live free.

00:25:09.480 And people are moving away from oppressive states like New York.

00:25:15.020 That's what's happening.

00:25:16.620 And there's other things, but that's how you would correct that.

00:25:21.640 Michelle in Kansas.

00:25:24.000 Hello, Michelle.

00:25:24.760 How are you?

00:25:26.080 I'm wonderful.

00:25:27.040 Good morning.

00:25:27.980 Thank you so much for calling in.

00:25:30.940 You're welcome.

00:25:31.520 So, you say you would vote for RFK Jr. over Trump.

00:25:36.580 Tell me your background of who you vote for or are you conservative or liberal or what?

00:25:45.760 Actually, my family is staunch Republican.

00:25:49.880 Okay.

00:25:50.060 But because of the people that were running, I chose Clinton at the time.

00:25:58.540 Okay.

00:25:59.420 I didn't really research him.

00:26:01.400 I liked him better.

00:26:04.040 And I was seriously tired of the Bushes.

00:26:06.920 And then when it came to Obama, I was in Washington State, and I didn't really like what I was seeing.

00:26:16.400 And it was a mail-in ballot, so I didn't mail it in.

00:26:19.260 Because that's all of Washington State.

00:26:21.260 Right.

00:26:21.380 And then when it came to 2016, I had watched Donald Trump, thank you, on Apprentice, and just really didn't like the man.

00:26:36.960 I knew he was a businessman, you could tell.

00:26:39.960 But I didn't like him personally.

00:26:42.040 And so, and of course, I didn't like Hillary Clinton, so I chose not to vote.

00:26:47.060 Okay.

00:26:48.040 And family, when I get back here into Kansas, you know, they're big Trumpers, and they said, come on and vote.

00:26:55.280 And I said, well, my vote never counts anyway.

00:26:57.380 Sure enough, as far as I'm concerned, it didn't.

00:27:01.020 The reason that I would go for Kennedy is two years ago, I was taken to an anti-vax thing here in Kansas.

00:27:11.440 And he didn't make it that year, but I, you know, the doctors were showing the slides.

00:27:16.680 They were telling us what was going on.

00:27:18.940 This is what's going to happen to you.

00:27:21.260 And sure enough, you know, the next two years, it's exactly what they said.

00:27:26.000 And so I chose not to do any of that.

00:27:31.820 Me too.

00:27:32.340 So let me ask you, Michelle, are you anti-vax or you're anti-vaccine for this particular and others that you might do research on?

00:27:42.760 Or are you just blanket anti-vaccine?

00:27:47.140 At this point, I'm blanket anti-vaccine.

00:27:50.040 And I also have the slip from even this year for the children.

00:27:54.560 And they're getting like, the babies are getting hep B.

00:27:58.400 They don't need hep B.

00:27:59.260 I mean, there's a whole list of things you shouldn't give a baby.

00:28:02.440 All right.

00:28:02.740 So, okay.

00:28:03.920 So is that your only issue?

00:28:09.020 Well, just period, because I won't put that in my body because I just, you have that instinct.

00:28:15.740 Right.

00:28:16.240 I have allergies to like, you know, like iodine.

00:28:19.660 You can't give me a CAT scan.

00:28:21.320 So I knew that I, you know, I wasn't going to take a chance of having allergies.

00:28:25.280 Right.

00:28:25.860 So I'm just asking if this is your only, this is the thing that you're voting on is anti-vax.

00:28:33.420 Well, it's nice to hear him talk about it.

00:28:37.220 And then I happened to come out of the doctor's office and I, the little girl had a dress on and I said, cute dress.

00:28:44.740 And she goes, she has autism.

00:28:46.540 And I went, yep, I bet you gave her the shot. 1.00

00:28:49.760 So when I asked a couple of people lately, if they'd gotten the shot, they said yes.

00:28:55.800 And then they got the COVID and the man now has Mercer in his leg and they may take it off.

00:29:01.700 I didn't argue with him and I didn't give him any grief.

00:29:04.580 Right.

00:29:05.180 It was his choice.

00:29:06.500 Michelle, I appreciate it.

00:29:08.360 RFK Jr., if you are, if that is your issue, he's your, he's your man.

00:29:15.080 Jacob in Washington.

00:29:17.200 Go ahead.

00:29:18.360 Yes.

00:29:18.780 Yeah.

00:29:20.960 So the disconnect, business owner, Washington, and it's, I'm starting to believe in the free education.

00:29:32.220 You know, I think we really, really should do it.

00:29:35.000 It's right now, prices have just gone through the roof.

00:29:38.700 And if we give this free education, you know, if everybody's going to go to college, they're going to feel very great.

00:29:45.000 And at least now we're going to have a big influx of great education, educated people.

00:29:51.560 And we know cause and effect, which they do not teach.

00:29:54.700 That is the disconnect between us and them is the disconnect of cause and effect.

00:30:01.340 Nobody knows cause and effect anymore these days.

00:30:04.440 Correct.

00:30:05.060 So let's, let's go on that.

00:30:08.500 We have things like men can have babies and all kinds of different things, Marxism, et cetera, et cetera.

00:30:18.100 Uh, and that is coming out of our schools is as, as the cause of most of this kind of thinking, the effect that you're seeing now on the streets, um, making our education even closer aligned.

00:30:38.180 And all of it with government and a government that is, that colludes with the unions, you find that to be a better thing?

00:30:50.360 Yes.

00:30:51.400 Well, they're working on getting rid of cause and effect and they've done well as a business owner.

00:30:57.800 There, there is a line of generation of people that were taught before a certain age and people taught after a certain age and they lose all cause and effect.

00:31:08.620 And that's what they've done.

00:31:10.020 But it is what we need.

00:31:11.520 So, but why would you?

00:31:13.280 Pumping because you're going to pump all these people back into the same thing. 0.96

00:31:17.500 A business owner on, this is why people lobby.

00:31:20.900 And this is why they give so much money is so they can keep pumping all of these people in and out.

00:31:26.780 They just become drones and everything.

00:31:29.340 And that is the greatest thing that they are doing.

00:31:33.420 And I say, jump on board.

00:31:35.900 Okay.

00:31:36.020 So hang on just a second.

00:31:36.960 I just, I, I, I'm sorry, Jacob.

00:31:39.100 I'm not trying to be argumentative here.

00:31:40.680 I'm really trying to understand.

00:31:42.440 So you see the problem with the system as it is now,

00:31:49.080 but you want to make sure that the government, um, um, doubles down on that and gives all education free.

00:32:01.600 Yes.

00:32:02.760 So with your cause and effect, does the government being involved in things like healthcare and not involved in things like televisions?

00:32:14.500 Is there a reason healthcare education goes up the more they get involved?

00:32:20.860 And on things where they're not involved, like televisions, we can go from $10,000 to $200.

00:32:29.460 Yes, that's, it would drop everything down.

00:32:33.180 There would be a mass influx.

00:32:35.220 If the government was doing it?

00:32:37.080 If the government was doing it, if we give out free healthcare or free education, it will drop the prices down.

00:32:46.080 Okay.

00:32:46.280 No, but the, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:32:47.940 Again, I'm not trying to change your mind.

00:32:49.860 I just, okay.

00:32:50.580 Okay.

00:32:51.280 That, that, that, that is not evidence-based.

00:32:55.600 What is evidence-based is when the government gets involved and the more involved, for instance, we have Obamacare.

00:33:04.440 They're supposed to drop the price.

00:33:05.580 It didn't, it made it higher education.

00:33:08.740 We pay the most money in the world and our education is getting worse.

00:33:12.880 The more the government gets involved, it actually drives the price up for that education and the quality usually goes down.

00:33:22.740 It does.

00:33:23.900 Yes, that is, but you need to take it all over.

00:33:28.360 You can't just do little bits and pieces.

00:33:30.380 You know, healthcare went up in price because the people who were paying healthcare now has to pay for the people that weren't paying healthcare.

00:33:38.700 Now, if you give everybody the healthcare all at the same, you know, big companies to smaller companies.

00:33:44.580 That's why big companies are lobbying so they can kill us smaller companies because we can't afford doing all this Obama stuff.

00:33:51.200 Wouldn't it be better if we, wouldn't it be better if we tried to limit and get rid of lobbying?

00:34:00.180 It would, but we'll never win, ever, ever.

00:34:03.720 You know, these companies are too big, too large, too powerful.

00:34:07.900 You know, us smaller companies, there is no more mom-and-pop shops.

00:34:10.980 And if there is, you know, we make less than what we could work for, for the bigger companies.

00:34:16.840 And that's just a fact.

00:34:18.500 That's what life is.

00:34:19.960 So, I, I, I, Jacob, I so thank you for your, your call.

00:34:24.840 I'm, I'm a small business owner as well.

00:34:27.400 And, uh, I was offering my, uh, my employees the best health insurance available.

00:34:35.960 In fact, at one point, I was the only Blue Cross Blue Shield employer in the entire state of New York and New York City that was still offering this plan because it became so grossly expensive after Obamacare.

00:34:50.180 They eventually discontinued it, and Obamacare was charging me for a Cadillac tax, trying to do the right thing.

00:34:59.480 Um, now that insurance isn't even offered at any price.

00:35:04.100 Um, you know, I, I, I wonder if you really believe in cause and effect.

00:35:09.080 You might look into, uh, the government's, um, getting into bed with the insurance companies and how they are limiting, again, more government, more corruption, higher prices.

00:35:22.960 But, um, thank you for calling in.

00:35:26.020 Uh, let me go.

00:35:27.180 What was the word you used before?

00:35:28.040 You used the word disconnect was an interesting word.

00:35:30.860 I'm, I'm going to be adopting that, uh, today.

00:35:34.680 That you're going to disconnect or there is a disconnect.

00:35:37.300 Say it also a silent prayer to help me get through this show today.

00:35:41.800 I, I, I, I hope the audience can come together and just, just pray for me to make it through.

00:35:47.820 But it is, but don't look at it as you're frustrated.

00:35:51.440 Look at this as a learning.

00:35:53.360 No, come on. 0.85

00:35:54.120 Look at it as a learning.

00:35:55.400 What did we just learn?

00:35:58.040 I'm not going to answer that question.

00:36:02.020 What, here's what we learned.

00:36:03.140 There is a, uh, a lack of information on, uh, the truth about government involvement versus quality and cost.

00:36:18.740 Every time.

00:36:21.020 This is why our universities are so wildly expensive because once the government said, we'll take care of the loans, we'll guarantee the loans, we'll take care of the loans.

00:36:32.440 The price of the university education went through the roof.

00:36:37.220 I had a totally unrelated issue.

00:36:39.340 Actually, recently I went to the doctor and, uh, they, they said, Hey, you're overweight.

00:36:44.100 How much, how much fast food are you eating?

00:36:46.040 And I said, about half my diet.

00:36:47.520 And they said, Oh, okay.

00:36:48.640 Well, what you need to do is make it a hundred percent of your diet.

00:36:50.940 If you eat all fast food, then you'll lose weight.

00:36:53.900 That's, that's, let me tell you about Mantis X.

00:36:56.380 If you're a shooter, uh, you've noticed that ammo prices have gone through the roof.

00:37:02.900 Why?

00:37:05.480 Government involvement.

00:37:07.160 Uh, every time you go to the range, it's like literally trying to, you know, you're just setting money on fire and it is so hard to do it because it's so rare and so expensive.

00:37:16.060 I want to give you a, a high tech, easy to use system that is widely used by the military.

00:37:21.520 Now started with the Marines and it is like having a Marine, uh, shooting instructor right next to you the whole time, except it is showing you digitally exactly where the barrel of your gun is going.

00:37:33.980 As you pull the trigger, as you aim, and then it gives you instantaneously what you need to do to fix that.

00:37:40.860 Every shot.

00:37:41.680 It's really great.

00:37:47.620 Glenn Beck.

00:38:03.980 We have Jason on the phone.

00:38:05.640 Jason, I don't mean to, uh, to give you less amount of time than you deserve, but I trying to squeeze you in here.

00:38:12.360 You disagree with me about our system of government.

00:38:16.340 Tell me about that.

00:38:17.340 Yes.

00:38:17.960 Yes.

00:38:18.400 Well, so I've, I've studied, read, read a few books over the years.

00:38:23.440 Um, and I don't want to get into conspiracies.

00:38:25.800 No, I believe in them.

00:38:27.060 Um, and our, our system of government, we keep, we keep saying, well, we need to go out and vote.

00:38:32.780 We need to go out and vote.

00:38:33.680 We need to do this.

00:38:35.760 I don't believe it does a darn bit of good.

00:38:38.920 They're all puppets anyways, especially when we got the deep state and we've got things going on behind the scenes and we could see it with this, with Trump.

00:38:48.000 When he doesn't do what the system wants him to do, they bury him and these other, most politicians get in there and they just end up, they end up compromising and doing whatever they're told anyways.

00:39:01.760 And I just don't, it's never changed.

00:39:03.720 It's, it just never changed.

00:39:05.660 So what do you, so what do you suggest?

00:39:08.760 Because I do believe there are a lot of good people that are in trying to fight, but they are overwhelmed by the, because we didn't pay attention for so long.

00:39:18.280 So what is, what is your solution to that?

00:39:22.440 A new form of government?

00:39:24.720 Not necessarily, but how about self-governance?

00:39:28.160 I don't need the government to govern me.

00:39:30.600 Correct.

00:39:31.320 If I learned, if I learned correct principles.

00:39:33.820 Correct.

00:39:34.180 I can govern my, I can govern myself.

00:39:36.560 Correct.

00:39:36.940 Um, so I just don't see why we place so much emphasis on, especially, you know, a president.

00:39:45.560 I mean, I think our local elections are more important than anything, but.

00:39:49.500 So Jason, you and I actually don't, we actually don't disagree.

00:39:53.600 Um, you're exactly right.

00:39:55.940 That, that is our system of government.

00:39:58.320 What our system of government has become is oppressive, but our system of government was originally,

00:40:06.540 to allow you to govern yourself.

00:40:10.320 And those correct principles are all in our Bill of Rights and our Declaration of Independence.

00:40:15.860 So now, are we going to clean it up or are we just going to dismantle it?

00:40:23.000 Because if we dismantle it, just repeat the palm of Humpty Dumpty.

00:40:29.020 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:40:30.160 Sometimes when you think, hey, something bad's coming around the corner, you know, you can freak out about it or you can just do enough to prepare.

00:40:44.040 So you're not surprised by it.

00:40:45.960 It usually, uh, is, uh, the case that, uh, something like, uh, unexpected right around the corner from so-called acts of God to acts of Congress.

00:40:56.180 This is one of the reasons why it's so smart to have things like emergency food on hand.

00:41:00.120 And it's always better to have it and not need it rather than need it and not have it.

00:42:09.360 Stand up, stand, hold the line.

00:42:14.300 It's a new day.

00:42:16.200 I'm tired to rise.

00:42:20.300 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:42:25.780 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:32.320 Well, hello, America.

00:42:34.040 It is Friday, and we're doing something very different today.

00:42:37.520 We're taking phone calls, 888-727-BECK.

00:42:41.140 For people who disagree with me or disagree with the right, people who have voted for Joe Biden, I really want to understand, you know, where you're coming from.

00:42:54.620 I'm not trying to argue with you.

00:42:56.280 I'm not trying to change your mind.

00:42:57.700 Right.

00:42:58.720 I get it.

00:42:59.700 Stu is...

00:43:00.180 I'm not saying it's not important.

00:43:02.900 Yeah.

00:43:03.100 It's very interesting.

00:43:04.100 You are learning.

00:43:05.160 I am learning a lot.

00:43:06.580 Yes.

00:43:06.760 A lot.

00:43:07.460 Right.

00:43:07.820 Things I didn't necessarily always want to learn.

00:43:09.720 Right.

00:43:10.180 But you're learning.

00:43:11.080 But it's difficult.

00:43:13.000 You're making...

00:43:13.880 I'm going to make it easier.

00:43:15.380 I get it, because it is difficult.

00:43:16.860 Because I'm not arguing.

00:43:18.020 I'm not arguing back.

00:43:19.080 You're just...

00:43:19.700 I'm just asking questions.

00:43:22.380 And I'm going to make it easier, because it is a little hard if you disagree.

00:43:25.700 And so, for instance, I've got an old episode of Dragnet out, where he's talking to these

00:43:36.180 young beatniks, these teenagers these days.

00:43:39.160 That's fantastic.

00:43:40.420 It'll make you feel good.

00:43:41.920 I also have the new Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion lyrics for a dramatic reading that we can do.

00:43:49.980 Oh, no.

00:43:50.300 No, no, no, no.

00:43:50.860 Not yet.

00:43:51.280 Not yet.

00:43:51.660 Not yet, Sarah.

00:43:52.400 No, no, no.

00:43:52.800 That's when you just pull that ripcord when you need it.

00:43:55.640 Okay.

00:43:56.020 And a dramatic reading is coming up.

00:43:58.280 First, let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.

00:44:01.440 In almost all cases, the secret to success in buying or selling a home is having the right

00:44:06.780 real estate agent.

00:44:07.860 It isn't as simple as just having somebody who knows how to find a good home for you on

00:44:12.680 your budget.

00:44:13.900 To get the right home out there, the best possible price, those are important, but there's

00:44:18.760 so much more to it.

00:44:19.680 Are they listening to what you are looking for?

00:44:23.520 Do they understand you, your lifestyle, what you're looking for in a school and a neighborhood?

00:44:28.860 The agents we work with take their jobs seriously.

00:44:31.720 They know all of the best practices to elevate your real estate experience to the next level.

00:44:36.460 So if you're buying or selling a home, whether it's across the street or across the country,

00:44:41.500 get your home sold, get you into a new home or, you know, do both of them, but don't take

00:44:48.520 my word for it.

00:44:49.360 Contact them today.

00:44:50.300 Find out for yourself.

00:44:51.760 Let us give you a list of just some of the best people in your area and you interview them

00:44:59.120 for yourself.

00:44:59.920 And see if you don't see the difference.

00:45:02.660 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:45:05.220 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:45:07.780 Okay.

00:45:08.480 We have, um, Cardi B is waiting for you, Stu.

00:45:12.340 I may be pulling that ripcord at any moment.

00:45:14.180 Okay.

00:45:15.320 Um, uh, we have Matt in Pennsylvania who disagrees about the attack at the Capitol.

00:45:21.000 Hello, Matt.

00:45:22.460 Hi, how are you, Glenn?

00:45:23.660 Great.

00:45:24.120 Long time listener.

00:45:24.640 In fact, uh, coming up 2000, uh, 2003, uh, Halloween episode is the first time I heard

00:45:30.100 you.

00:45:30.220 Holy.

00:45:30.580 Come up on 20 years.

00:45:31.680 Oh my gosh.

00:45:32.680 Wow.

00:45:33.860 Woo.

00:45:34.340 You've seen some changes.

00:45:36.580 Yeah.

00:45:37.120 Yeah, definitely.

00:45:37.980 Yeah.

00:45:38.240 I think it was a F F LA, uh, nine 70th.

00:45:41.320 Oh yeah.

00:45:41.740 Yeah.

00:45:41.980 Yeah.

00:45:42.220 Yeah.

00:45:42.260 Are you still in Florida?

00:45:43.780 No, you're in Pennsylvania.

00:45:44.940 No, I'm actually, I'm in Pennsylvania.

00:45:46.320 I always listen to you on the internet.

00:45:47.540 I'm a truck driver and, uh, I hear you, uh, over the internet.

00:45:51.460 I heart radio back in the day I was an office worker, but, um, the reason, the reason I

00:45:56.540 call, um, is, and perhaps we agree on, I mean, we agree on so many things, but I keep

00:46:04.380 hearing that these people were bad that went into the, into the Capitol.

00:46:08.480 Uh, and, and I will admit the people that stole like laptops, put their feet on desks.

00:46:14.460 Yeah.

00:46:14.940 I don't agree with the windows.

00:46:17.200 Yep.

00:46:17.760 Broke the windows.

00:46:18.400 I, I, all that, but the people that went into the Capitol that went in peacefully and

00:46:23.300 demonstrated, they're not bad people.

00:46:26.000 Oh no, no, no, they're not horrible people.

00:46:28.060 And I keep hearing over and over and maybe I'm just misunderstanding from you, but I keep

00:46:33.320 hearing, Oh, how dare they?

00:46:35.120 That was terrible.

00:46:36.080 We did a bad thing.

00:46:37.420 No, no, no, no.

00:46:37.920 Wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:46:38.720 It happened.

00:46:39.320 Wait, I, this is really important to address.

00:46:42.320 Thank you for bringing this up, Matt, um, important to address because there were bad

00:46:48.500 actors there.

00:46:49.560 There were people that that's what they intended to do.

00:46:52.660 And you could tell because they were wearing all black.

00:46:54.980 I'm not saying they're Antifa, but I'm not, not saying that either.

00:46:58.500 Um, there were people that were there that were breaking the windows, breaking the doors,

00:47:02.960 fighting with police.

00:47:04.160 And as you will see in the coming weeks, uh, as more and more of this January 6th video

00:47:11.740 is coming out, you will see that many times the Trump supporters were protecting the police.

00:47:20.120 They were saying, we love the police.

00:47:22.560 The conservatives, real conservatives are not anti-police.

00:47:26.540 Now that doesn't mean that you can't be walking in a crowd with people who say they agree with

00:47:31.680 you, um, but they don't agree on the police thing, or they want to break into the Capitol.

00:47:36.480 Every single one of those people that did violent things, just like every single one of those people

00:47:44.280 that burned down cities and were involved in violent things should go to jail.

00:47:49.780 However, if you were there and you weren't participating, but you happened to be on the

00:47:56.040 street in Minneapolis and you were observing and you were not doing anything, you shouldn't

00:48:03.060 go to jail, nor should those who did go or are going to jail in the Capitol that did nothing.

00:48:10.560 This is a horror show from our government.

00:48:14.840 Um, it is, this is persecution, not prosecution.

00:48:19.040 This is persecution.

00:48:20.160 And I want everybody to go to, uh, X Twitter.

00:48:24.160 I want you to go to X and watch, um, Laura, Laura Logan's new, uh, special on January 6th.

00:48:34.100 It is, it's 60 minutes quality and it shows who they're actually prosecuting and persecuting.

00:48:43.460 They can't seem to find real ringleaders, but they are coming in.

00:48:48.400 And this one story that she says, this is part one, it is worth every second of watching.

00:48:54.060 This is part one of one of the people that ended up killing himself because of the persecution

00:49:00.720 from the government and was a guy who believed in the police was a guy who believed in, you

00:49:06.780 know, a fair trial, believed in America.

00:49:09.420 They destroyed him and, uh, really didn't have any reason at all to charge him or harass

00:49:17.300 him.

00:49:17.500 And that's what they did.

00:49:18.380 Thank you, Matt, for pointing that out.

00:49:20.640 Uh, let me go to William in Florida.

00:49:24.740 Hi, William.

00:49:26.500 Hello, Glenn.

00:49:27.520 How are you?

00:49:28.100 I'm very good.

00:49:29.100 Are you, uh, are you, who have you voted for in the last few years?

00:49:35.780 Actually, I voted for Biden.

00:49:37.260 I've been a Republican for 40 years and, um, yeah, this, this whole Trump thing, man, I'm

00:49:43.840 sorry.

00:49:44.340 He's just, uh, from day one, Trump, uh, you know, I was 20 years in the Navy and our, our

00:49:50.720 credo is honor, courage, commitment, and he has shown none of that.

00:49:56.800 Never.

00:49:57.840 Yeah.

00:49:58.560 Okay.

00:49:59.200 Okay.

00:49:59.520 You got to give him some moments.

00:50:01.620 You could, you could show something that shows he's a decent dude, but there is a narcissism

00:50:09.740 that is dangerous.

00:50:10.700 You said something earlier.

00:50:11.960 You said something about Humpty Dumpty, about dismantling the government.

00:50:16.540 And that's exactly the way I see Donald Trump.

00:50:20.280 That's exactly the way I see the MAGA movement.

00:50:23.060 And that's exactly the way I see Ron DeSantis.

00:50:26.780 There's a dismantling of something going on.

00:50:30.240 Okay.

00:50:30.540 Hang on.

00:50:30.860 Just say, hang on, William.

00:50:32.100 I just want to understand.

00:50:33.100 I'm not trying to change your mind.

00:50:34.580 Just want to understand.

00:50:35.780 First of all, when I said last week, dismantle, I mean, burn the place down.

00:50:40.040 Um, if, if you are, if you are somebody that wants a revolution, balkanism, uh, you want

00:50:48.480 to, uh, reset into something brand new, um, that's extraordinarily dangerous.

00:50:55.400 That's why I brought in Humpty Dumpty. 0.98

00:50:57.120 Once Humpty Dumpty falls, all the King's horses, all the King's man cannot reassemble

00:51:01.920 this.

00:51:02.440 Okay.

00:51:02.900 So be careful what you do if you're flushing things down the toilet.

00:51:06.540 However, we were having that in a conversation, uh, about the deep state and how the deep

00:51:12.740 state, uh, is, uh, is controlling much of what's happening in the world without any kind

00:51:22.120 of elections or voting on those people.

00:51:25.340 Do you see the world that way?

00:51:27.720 So why do they want to burn it down?

00:51:31.440 I mean, I, I, I'm genuinely curious that the deep state, that's, that's the way.

00:51:36.540 I see it is that, that they're there.

00:51:39.620 They won't a great reset.

00:51:42.060 Yes.

00:51:42.620 You know, the deep state does the backup two steps, backup two steps, Marjorie Taylor green

00:51:48.060 calling for civil war.

00:51:49.520 That is the most dishonorable statement I've heard from an American in the past 200 years.

00:51:56.620 I don't know about that, but it is very dishonorable and I denounce it.

00:52:00.780 Um, I mean, there's been some crazy, there's been some crazy things said in 200 years, but

00:52:05.800 if she said that I would denounce that.

00:52:08.480 Did you say she called for civil war?

00:52:11.900 Yes.

00:52:13.060 She called for a separation of the States, the red and the blue.

00:52:17.500 You can call it anything you want.

00:52:19.120 You can put a capital C and a capital W.

00:52:21.820 That's the old one, or you can make it a lowercase.

00:52:25.160 And that's what she did.

00:52:26.480 She's calling for a separation of the States.

00:52:29.120 It's the national divorce, uh, the national divorce thing.

00:52:32.020 Got it.

00:52:32.260 Okay.

00:52:32.480 Sorry.

00:52:32.880 Okay.

00:52:33.340 It's civil war.

00:52:34.820 That's a synonym for it.

00:52:36.360 That's all there is to it.

00:52:37.400 We're all grown in here.

00:52:38.660 We can, we can say the truth and that's exactly what she's calling for.

00:52:41.960 So may I, may I just, may I nuance a little bit?

00:52:45.940 Absolutely.

00:52:46.520 Um, we have had conversations of, I wish we could, I wish we could peacefully just split

00:52:53.640 up the States.

00:52:54.280 And I said, you know, they could even pick first and, you know, they pick their one and

00:52:58.620 then we pick one and, um, that, you know, a union broken up like this will never stand.

00:53:04.020 So it is the end of the union.

00:53:06.940 Um, you know, as Lincoln said, we'll either be all slavery or we'll all be free.

00:53:12.580 You can't coexist and live like this broken.

00:53:16.460 Um, however, that is different than saying, I want war. 0.58

00:53:22.860 Um, and I want a civil war. 0.66

00:53:25.060 Anyone who claims they want a civil war is out of their minds.

00:53:29.600 You have no idea how close we came to losing that war.

00:53:34.240 And there is, and the only reason why we want it is because we had, uh, John Quincy Adams

00:53:40.480 son over in France and they were about to throw in with the South.

00:53:45.020 And he said, wait, wait, you'll see, this is not what the South is saying.

00:53:50.300 It is, there's no one that would support us, uh, and it would be awful.

00:53:56.100 Now, if they started something, you know, rounding people up, well, that's a different story.

00:54:01.560 Then you have a right to protect yourself, but civil war is dangerous and must not happen.

00:54:09.160 And just to, uh, quickly note, there was a, uh, a post that went around that Marjorie

00:54:13.940 Taylor Greene did call for civil war.

00:54:15.760 That was a fabricated post though.

00:54:17.580 So it is important.

00:54:18.320 I, especially when we're talking about these topics that were clear.

00:54:21.700 She is, to my knowledge is never called for that.

00:54:24.300 Okay.

00:54:24.800 And if she, if she, she, or anyone, Stu did it, if I did it, denounce me.

00:54:30.340 Okay.

00:54:30.860 It should never, that's not wise.

00:54:34.120 Um, does that help you William on that?

00:54:37.200 Oh yeah.

00:54:37.940 Oh yeah.

00:54:38.340 Okay.

00:54:39.060 Absolutely.

00:54:39.680 Great.

00:54:40.020 Yeah.

00:54:40.860 I'm with you on that.

00:54:41.900 I just, but I just think Trump is leading us in a direction.

00:54:45.280 Now, listen, everybody knows that follows politics, that Joe Biden has never, let me word it like

00:54:52.920 this.

00:54:53.480 If Joe Biden was to have peacefully passed away in his bed in 2017, 2016, no one would ever

00:55:02.240 have mentioned his name again.

00:55:04.540 He was a subpar politician at best, but he was a safer bet than Trump who was dangerous.

00:55:12.320 That's the, so do you think, and I'm a Republican, listen, my mom voted for George Wallace.

00:55:20.100 She was a Democrat, a hardcore Democrat.

00:55:22.940 And those people are all MAGA now.

00:55:25.080 There's no, there are no Democrats down here that.

00:55:28.420 Okay.

00:55:28.980 So hang on.

00:55:29.660 So hang on just a second, William, um, help me out on Joe Biden.

00:55:33.920 I can understand what you're saying about Donald Trump.

00:55:37.780 Um, we don't have to agree on everything.

00:55:39.820 I want you to understand that, but I, I'm trying to understand where people are coming

00:55:44.060 from.

00:55:44.500 So I got it about Donald Trump.

00:55:47.020 Um, now talk to me about, about Joe Biden, what he's currently doing and what the path

00:55:52.920 that we're on as a nation, you don't find the path we're on, um, extraordinarily dangerous.

00:56:01.440 I, uh, yes, I do.

00:56:07.800 I absolutely do.

00:56:09.400 And, and this goes back for 40 years.

00:56:14.000 We've been on a dangerous path.

00:56:16.080 I mean, look at our national debt, $32 trillion.

00:56:20.440 Those are numbers that weren't even said 30 years ago.

00:56:24.080 No, I know.

00:56:24.520 Um, but let me, let me, let me push you just a little bit further along that. 0.59

00:56:30.200 I agree on debt and things that are common sense.

00:56:33.320 Yes.

00:56:34.100 But the left is dismantling even our justice department.

00:56:39.740 Our, our justice department is wildly corrupt right now.

00:56:44.280 In my opinion, um, the FBI for the first time in my life, I don't trust the FBI.

00:56:49.560 I don't trust our government.

00:56:51.160 What I'm seeing coming out of the Pentagon is horrifying, absolutely horrifying.

00:56:58.140 Um, we're not prepared to fight a war.

00:57:00.220 We're so concentrated on, you know, abortion and transgender surgery, uh, that we, I don't 1.00

00:57:07.740 want to fight with these people running our, our military.

00:57:11.900 Um, do you agree with any of those things?

00:57:15.980 Yeah, yes, sir.

00:57:17.100 I can't speak for the DOJ or the FBI, but the Pentagon, good Lord, is it true?

00:57:22.560 I mean, you've got a guy that can fact check what I'm about to say.

00:57:26.260 Didn't they lose a trillion dollars like just last year?

00:57:31.020 Isn't that at least the second time that they've lost a trillion dollars?

00:57:36.000 Yes.

00:57:36.320 Just magically.

00:57:37.260 We don't know, man.

00:57:39.280 Right.

00:57:39.880 And people say that we can't take on China and Russia at the same time.

00:57:43.980 So BS, we could absolutely take them on at the same time because the Pentagon is the

00:57:49.680 most powerful entity on the planet, bar none.

00:57:53.340 And they give me the creeps, my man.

00:57:55.540 And I was part of the system for 20 years.

00:57:58.340 There is, if, if, if, if Congress can't audit the Pentagon, well, then that's a problem.

00:58:05.440 Would you agree with the audit, the fed as well?

00:58:07.540 Well, I think if you audit the Pentagon, you audit the Pentagon.

00:58:14.000 Okay.

00:58:15.320 If we have to go that route first to figure out the math that it takes to actually audit

00:58:22.040 the Pentagon, then let's start with the fed, my man.

00:58:24.940 Okay.

00:58:25.860 William, thank you very much for your call.

00:58:28.280 We, we, we, I agree to disagree, but I'm, I'm glad you called in today.

00:58:33.640 Thank you.

00:58:34.940 Um, relief factor.

00:58:36.300 You're ready for the Cardi B thing?

00:58:37.900 Cause I mean, I could be talked into it.

00:58:39.980 Uh, does relief factor work against the pain that I'm feeling today?

00:58:44.520 No.

00:58:45.180 Relief factor sleep might, but regular relief factor for pain will not.

00:58:51.500 Well, I don't know.

00:58:52.320 I'm willing to break up one of the capsules and just maybe rub it on my head.

00:58:56.480 Um, but anyway, Eddie wrote in, he said about a year ago, I was bent over like an old man.

00:59:01.620 I could barely stand up straight, really bad back pain, dreaded even going to the mailbox,

00:59:06.400 started taking a relief factor.

00:59:08.600 And within a week, my back pain was almost completely gone.

00:59:11.640 No more pain.

00:59:13.160 Relief factor worked for me.

00:59:14.480 Thank you so much for telling me about it.

00:59:16.620 Eddie, thank you for listening.

00:59:18.400 Relief factor exists to give you the life back that you have always led and love three week.

00:59:24.720 Quick start 1995.

00:59:26.280 It's a trial pack.

00:59:27.320 It's not a drug.

00:59:28.220 So it's not going to whack you out plus more than a million people have bought relief factors.

00:59:32.880 Quick start and 70% of them have gone on to order more.

00:59:35.960 Go to relieffactor.com.

00:59:38.040 That's relieffactor.com or 800 for relief 800.

00:59:42.220 The number for relief relief factor.com 800 for relief.

00:59:47.340 Feel the difference.

00:59:48.740 10 seconds.

00:59:49.280 Station ID.

00:59:49.760 You know, let me just give you a, just let me, let me give you a little salve.

01:00:03.120 Okay.

01:00:03.460 Just a little salve.

01:00:05.700 This is from Dragnet, the TV show back in the sixties and early seventies.

01:00:11.820 And, uh, and early on in Dragnet, they were talking to hippies and beatniks.

01:00:18.820 Okay.

01:00:19.220 Okay.

01:00:20.160 And, uh, here's, what was his name?

01:00:22.840 Joe Friday.

01:00:24.400 Speaking to the teenagers, the sixties.

01:00:27.720 Listen, just don't understand.

01:00:29.860 Maybe we do son.

01:00:31.060 Don't think you have a corner on all of virtue vision in the country or that everybody else is fat and selfish.

01:00:36.280 And you're the first generation to come along that's felt dissatisfied.

01:00:39.620 They all have, you know, about different things.

01:00:42.460 And most of them didn't have the same opportunity and freedoms that you do.

01:00:45.640 Let's talk poverty.

01:00:47.220 Most places in the world, that's not a problem.

01:00:49.100 It's a way of life.

01:00:50.440 And rights, they're liable to give you a blank stare because they may not know what you're talking about.

01:00:55.080 The fact is more people are living better right here than anywhere else ever before in history.

01:01:00.080 So don't expect us to roll over and play dead when you say you're dissatisfied.

01:01:03.460 It's not perfect, but it's a great deal better than when we grew up.

01:01:06.660 A hundred men standing in the street hoping for one job, selling apples on the street corner.

01:01:11.620 That's one of the things we were dissatisfied about, and you don't see that much anymore.

01:01:15.000 You're taller, stronger, healthier, better educated, and you'll live longer than the last generation.

01:01:19.920 And we don't think that's altogether bad.

01:01:22.060 You've probably never seen a quarantine sign in your neighbor's door.

01:01:25.040 Diphtheria, scarlet fever, whooping cough.

01:01:27.420 Probably none of your classmates are crippled with polio.

01:01:30.140 You don't see many mastoid scars anymore.

01:01:32.620 We've done quite a bit of fighting all around the world.

01:01:35.340 Whether you think it was moral or not, a lot of people are free today to make their own mistakes because of it.

01:01:39.840 And that may just include you.

01:01:41.760 I don't know.

01:01:42.660 Maybe part of it's the fact that you're in a hurry.

01:01:45.180 You've grown up on instant orange juice.

01:01:47.040 Flip a dial, instant entertainment.

01:01:49.580 Dial seven digits, instant communication.

01:01:52.280 Turn a key, push a pedal, instant transportation.

01:01:54.900 Flash a card, instant money.

01:01:56.860 Shove in a problem, push a few buttons, instant answers.

01:02:00.000 But some problems you can't get quick answers to, no matter how much you want them.

01:02:03.640 We took a little boy into Central Receiving Hospital yesterday.

01:02:07.060 He was four years old.

01:02:08.340 He weighs eight and a half pounds.

01:02:10.480 His parents just haven't bothered to feed him.

01:02:13.300 Now give me a fast answer to that one.

01:02:15.140 One that'll stop that from ever happening again.

01:02:17.800 And if you can't settle that one, what about the 55,000 Americans who will die on the highways this year?

01:02:22.380 That's nearly six or seven times the number that'll get killed in Vietnam.

01:02:26.400 Why aren't you up in arms about that?

01:02:28.100 Or is dying in a car somehow moral?

01:02:30.620 Tell me how to wipe out prejudice.

01:02:32.500 I'll settle for just the prejudices you have inside yourselves.

01:02:35.360 Show me how to get rid of the unlimited capacity for human beings to make themselves believe that they're somehow right and justified in stealing from somebody or hurting somebody.

01:02:44.760 And you'll just about put this place here out of business.

01:02:49.360 Wow.

01:02:51.140 I don't think they make television like that anymore.

01:02:54.460 Television that likes America.

01:02:57.460 There's a new thing to try.

01:03:00.500 Back in just a minute.

01:03:05.360 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:03:21.460 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:03:23.680 Out of the terrible tragedy of 9-11 came the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.

01:03:28.500 Out of the ashes, something always good sprouts.

01:03:32.100 Which, Tunnel to Towers is really good.

01:03:34.800 They're committed to helping our nation's heroes and their families in their darkest hours.

01:03:38.480 If we want the government to do less, we have to do more.

01:03:43.420 Our first responders that lose their life in the line of duty are veterans.

01:03:48.720 When they come home now, severely injured, line of duty, where are they?

01:03:54.800 We have so many homeless now.

01:03:57.300 Our homeless veterans program, with Tunnel to Towers, helped over 2,000 people this year stay off the streets in the country they signed up to protect.

01:04:07.660 If you come home horribly injured, in the line of duty, they're going to lift your financial burdens through their Gold Star Family Home Program and their Fallen First Responder Program.

01:04:19.560 Smart home program for catastrophically injured veterans.

01:04:23.560 All of this happens because of you.

01:04:26.360 Will you donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org?

01:04:31.520 That's T, the number 2T, dot org.

01:04:35.020 And it's BlazeTV.com slash Glenn.

01:04:37.000 Use the promo code Glenn and you'll save 10 bucks.

01:04:40.240 We're doing something entirely different today.

01:05:01.500 We're asking people that maybe voted for Biden and still are going to vote for Biden.

01:05:07.880 How they got there, why they're there, how they see the economy, how they see the world, and also people who just disagree with some things that I would say.

01:05:21.800 I really want to understand you, and I can't do that by trying to win a fight.

01:05:28.780 I can't try to do that by arguing with you, but I can learn by asking you questions on what you think about things, how you got there, why is this a problem or not a problem.

01:05:43.920 So I welcome you to call in, 888-727-BECK.

01:05:47.420 Keith is in New Hampshire.

01:05:49.260 Did you vote for Joe Biden last time, and you say you would vote for him this time?

01:05:53.760 I did vote for him last time, and yeah, I would vote for him again, and I based it really on two things.

01:06:00.480 All right.

01:06:00.960 One, the NLRB.

01:06:02.880 I think his appointments have been outstanding.

01:06:05.880 I think when it comes to thinking about the economy and thinking about how hard it is to be working class these days, the only way that we can really exert our power.

01:06:16.620 I mean, there's really not much that comes down to a presidential election, really just two corporate candidates.

01:06:21.380 I think we can agree on that, but if one corporate candidate is going to make it so that if companies interfere with union organizing, then a union gets to exist, that corporate candidate is giving more power to the workers than the alternative.

01:06:38.100 And I think when we spend eight hours a day at work, all day, every day, that's where we spend our most time.

01:06:45.620 That's where we have our most influence, and that's where we can grow our power so that maybe one day we don't have a two-party corporate duopoly.

01:06:54.100 So, well, you know, the unions have, you know, they are in with the government now with Joe Biden.

01:07:06.880 You wouldn't deny that.

01:07:08.320 I don't really know how that works when you think about what happened with the railroad strike.

01:07:12.440 Now, Biden totally undermined that effort.

01:07:14.660 I don't really know how I would see that, and I don't know if the UAW president would agree with that.

01:07:18.960 Can I get another issue, too, by the way?

01:07:20.280 Well, I just want you to know that they've given billions of dollars to the Democratic Party, and you don't do that unless you're supporting.

01:07:28.920 Right, because, like I said, Trump is not going to put anybody on the NLRB who's going to help unions.

01:07:35.680 Correct.

01:07:35.980 So it's in unions' best interest to help Democrats, because Democrats are the ones who are closely aligned with their interests.

01:07:42.600 Are unions balanced?

01:07:47.780 I mean, when a union balances bad, corrupt capitalism, it's good.

01:07:53.900 When a union becomes corrupt, it's bad.

01:07:58.220 It's usually somewhere in the middle where it works.

01:08:04.020 The power that I can exert, where's my power closer to?

01:08:08.580 The company that I work for when I have a union, or I should say the union that I belong to,

01:08:14.460 or it's some company that I might work for where I'm just some peon all on my own,

01:08:19.360 and they can isolate me and fire me and, you know, run me open.

01:08:23.600 Or if you think about it in the bigger one, is it me versus Walmart as an individual person?

01:08:28.320 Right, or maybe is the union going to do more for Walmart than...

01:08:34.440 Okay, so I got it.

01:08:35.880 Can I ask you some other questions here?

01:08:37.300 Where do you stand on the White House directing social media in censorship?

01:08:47.760 I think that what they were doing was they were pointing out specific things that they thought were misinformation

01:08:53.400 and asking them to look at their terms of service.

01:08:55.680 Which, by the way, I mean, I didn't like it anymore when Trump did it than when Biden did it,

01:09:00.300 but at the big grand scheme of things, not my biggest concern.

01:09:03.640 And knowing that Trump is going to do it over posts where he doesn't like how people talk about him...

01:09:08.680 He never...

01:09:09.380 I mean, I imagine he might be a little bit more...

01:09:11.600 He never did that.

01:09:12.400 He was accused of saying he was going to...

01:09:14.880 Look in the Twitter files.

01:09:17.240 He was...

01:09:17.760 He was accused of saying those things, but, you know, the press pushed back quite hard,

01:09:25.120 and I was one of them that said, you can't censor the press, and you can't tell the press what to do.

01:09:29.800 This president has just issued a memo this week instructing the press what to do, which was pretty amazing.

01:09:37.740 Okay, let me ask you a couple of questions.

01:09:40.780 The Biden laptop and the FBI, is any of that concerning to you?

01:09:50.380 And if not, why?

01:09:51.940 Nah, because what's more concerning to me, really, is trans rights, because I'm actually a mental health professional,

01:09:57.240 and I work with people who are transgender every day, and I've got to tell you what I really see...

01:10:01.580 Okay, no, no, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

01:10:04.740 You're the first seminar caller I think I've had, so thank you for your call.

01:10:10.560 You're the first one that seems to do this for a living, and I won't have conversations with people who will not answer the question and stay on topic.

01:10:28.140 You know, and also, quite honestly, I'm not wasting time with people who say men can get pregnant.

01:10:35.260 That's not true.

01:10:37.300 You don't live in the real world.

01:10:39.520 You don't understand basic science, and so it's not reasonable to have a conversation with you.

01:10:46.500 And sort of behind the scenes, when we started, we were talking about the show this morning, that was what I thought we would get out of this.

01:10:52.880 And we didn't.

01:10:53.400 I thought we'd get those people, and you were right.

01:10:54.240 That's the first one.

01:10:54.640 That's the first one we've gotten.

01:10:55.500 That's the first one we've gotten.

01:10:56.660 So, you're right.

01:10:57.140 We've had really good, honest people who are just trying to make their way, and I can learn from those people.

01:11:05.240 Many of them still drive me insane, but they're very nice.

01:11:08.100 And they were very honest.

01:11:09.100 And honest.

01:11:09.520 They were honest.

01:11:10.700 Searching for answers and viewing things honestly.

01:11:16.200 This was a seminar caller.

01:11:19.580 Of course you're going to get that first.

01:11:20.260 Okay, let me get to Jake in Minnesota.

01:11:24.040 Hello, Jake.

01:11:25.920 Hi.

01:11:26.420 How are you doing?

01:11:27.060 Very good.

01:11:27.680 How are things in Minnesota?

01:11:29.600 Well, I'm sitting in the rain right now.

01:11:32.540 I appreciate what you are doing.

01:11:34.960 This is my first time ever doing this.

01:11:36.420 It's kind of fun.

01:11:37.020 Okay.

01:11:37.360 But I really do appreciate.

01:11:38.960 I've listened to the other two callers, and I love the civility.

01:11:43.360 Thank you.

01:11:44.900 Thank you.

01:11:46.060 So do I.

01:11:46.760 I wish we had more of it.

01:11:47.960 So, Jake.

01:11:48.540 Well, the country needs more of it.

01:11:50.340 Yes.

01:11:50.600 Absolutely.

01:11:50.920 We need to challenge each other with our divergent thoughts and understand that neither side is evil or stupid and that most of us kind of fall.

01:12:06.560 Well, probably 80 to 90 percent of us would agree with most things.

01:12:11.680 Well, let me take you here.

01:12:14.080 You believe in the First Amendment, freedom of the press, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom.

01:12:19.920 One hundred percent.

01:12:21.360 One hundred percent.

01:12:22.460 Second Amendment?

01:12:25.960 It's nuanced.

01:12:27.740 Yeah, it is nuanced.

01:12:29.300 I don't.

01:12:30.580 I understand culturally the right to break our arms, the importance of that and everything.

01:12:37.580 I don't think we're a better country because we have 400 plus million guns in the country.

01:12:43.480 But that's fine.

01:12:44.120 It's fine.

01:12:44.540 I just I just want to I was just taking off a few things that I mean, this is where this is where the rubber meets the road.

01:12:52.220 You're not going to quarter.

01:12:53.400 You don't believe the government should quarter anybody.

01:12:55.720 Soldiers into houses.

01:12:57.160 You believe in a fair jury trial.

01:13:00.780 You believe in, you know, you don't have to testify against yourself.

01:13:05.820 You can face your accuser.

01:13:07.820 All of that stuff.

01:13:08.920 Right.

01:13:09.920 Well, that's what makes the country beautiful.

01:13:11.960 Yeah.

01:13:12.100 Thank you very much.

01:13:12.880 Now, let's talk about the things that you say you're a common sense liberal.

01:13:18.860 What you voted for Joe Biden.

01:13:22.020 Yep.

01:13:22.260 Yep.

01:13:22.460 I typically voted Democrat my entire life.

01:13:26.580 OK.

01:13:27.200 And are you going to vote for Joe Biden again if he's the candidate?

01:13:32.840 I would.

01:13:33.920 You know, I guess I would prefer someone younger and somebody who, you know,

01:13:42.080 I would vote for anybody whose number one concern was to reunite their country.

01:13:47.360 I would vote for a Republican who who made his or her priority reuniting us, like getting us off of the hatred train.

01:13:57.500 I think that's I think that's great, Jake.

01:14:00.600 Now, let's talk about some things that if they concern you or not.

01:14:07.980 What part of Minnesota do you live in?

01:14:10.480 The Twin Cities area.

01:14:11.380 OK, so you saw some of the damage and the fires and everything else from the riots.

01:14:16.600 Yep.

01:14:17.860 Reimagining the police.

01:14:19.080 Is it time to say, OK, maybe maybe maybe we shouldn't have done shouldn't have done that.

01:14:26.420 But there is a problem in some police forces with individuals.

01:14:30.420 But this was not a good idea.

01:14:34.140 And I think that most people, including even most liberals, would agree that police are necessary, that there needs to be some changes.

01:14:43.700 There needs to be some greater, you know, greater level of of trust and acceptance in communities and everything.

01:14:53.080 Yeah.

01:14:53.300 But 100 percent.

01:14:54.920 I mean, I think most people are pro police, recognizing that certain things in police culture, you know, the George Floyd killing and stuff.

01:15:06.580 I think that was a result of, you know, certain not being able to challenge to truly challenge he or she who is in command and everything.

01:15:18.640 You know, those cultural things, I think, could be need to be addressed and everything.

01:15:24.980 Of course, I do think that there is a level that there's a level of of bias and prejudice in policing that needs to be addressed or at least in everything.

01:15:36.060 Yeah, I got it.

01:15:37.560 So now you said that you I want to make sure I understood that you felt that the riots on the street were because it was a logical, you know, you if you don't address it, it goes into that.

01:15:53.180 If you feel unheard.

01:15:54.600 Is that what I heard you say?

01:15:56.740 Well, I would I guess I would agree with that for the most part.

01:16:00.760 Yeah.

01:16:01.120 OK, so would you say.

01:16:04.000 But I'm not a I'm not a fan of rioting.

01:16:06.460 Yeah, neither am I.

01:16:07.220 You know, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:16:08.380 Peaceful protesting and stuff like that.

01:16:10.680 Right.

01:16:11.180 You know.

01:16:12.320 But so let me so let me just I just need to ask you two questions and then I want to talk to you some more.

01:16:18.020 You're a very reasonable guy with the the riots in the streets in Minneapolis and all over the country.

01:16:25.280 Most of those people did not go to jail or pay any price.

01:16:29.900 And I think they should have the bad guys should go to jail.

01:16:33.560 The good guys that were there that were peaceful and were not trying to burn things down should not go to jail.

01:16:38.740 The same with January 6th.

01:16:41.840 The people that were breaking in, hitting police, et cetera, et cetera, bad guys and should go to jail.

01:16:49.480 Many of them were not that.

01:16:52.440 Would you do you recognize the difference in the way those two groups are being treated?

01:16:58.200 And is that right or wrong or justified?

01:17:02.760 Yeah, I don't know as much.

01:17:07.740 It's certainly as much as those of you who in the who are in the business of following everything super closely.

01:17:13.940 I I agree.

01:17:16.620 I think once again, it's nuanced and stuff.

01:17:18.980 And you talk about peaceful protesting and and and I appreciate, you know, I've listened to the other callers and stuff.

01:17:24.600 And you're nobody's you're not playing gotcha or anything.

01:17:26.900 And I don't want to play gotcha.

01:17:29.680 I if you could follow my line of thinking here, like if you if you take like the Colin Kaepernick thing, peaceful protest.

01:17:38.620 I I believe that maybe if his peaceful protests were not so demonized by.

01:17:51.060 And once again, I don't want to I'm not blaming or anything like that.

01:17:53.960 I understand. But the right side, if we if we acknowledge and and appreciate forms of peaceful protest, the thing is, is is that protest got so demonized.

01:18:06.240 Then it's like, well, I mean, I don't I'm not I know.

01:18:12.860 I don't think violence is wrong and everything, but we kind of took away.

01:18:16.960 So if so, will you should have been a respectable police, the peaceful protest.

01:18:21.740 Will you give the same benefit that all MAGA people or people who support Donald Trump or are on the right have been grossly demonized for the last 15 years?

01:18:33.900 I 100 percent agree with you, you know, to and to and for the most part and everything.

01:18:41.220 The demonization of rural, particularly white America is is tragic in so many different ways.

01:18:50.500 I mean, as a as you know, the Democratic Party should understand how they lost.

01:18:55.180 I mean, because you go back a few decades and those rural communities were frequently quite blue.

01:19:02.040 And, you know, that was very stupid.

01:19:05.220 OK, very, very stupid.

01:19:06.460 So, Jake, you are you are great.

01:19:09.280 I just love you.

01:19:10.220 You're going to vote for Joe Biden, but we can have a conversation and it can remain civil.

01:19:14.820 I'd like to continue with you.

01:19:16.280 Could you hold on for a few minutes?

01:19:17.520 I guess that answer is yes.

01:20:34.540 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:20:54.160 I've got about a minute before the top of the hour, so I don't want to pick our last caller up again.

01:21:02.460 See if he'll hold for the next segment because I think he's fascinating and I like him a lot.

01:21:09.160 I don't think we should bring him back, though.

01:21:11.000 What do you mean?

01:21:13.340 That was an encouragement.

01:21:14.480 I feel like I didn't know people like that existed on the left anymore.

01:21:17.640 I feel like I thought that all went away.

01:21:19.400 He seemed like a reasonable guy.

01:21:20.880 I liked him.

01:21:22.140 Right.

01:21:22.340 All you can do now is ruin it.

01:21:24.760 You're going to ask him more questions and then he's going to get annoying and you're going to ruin my week.

01:21:29.660 I have this one thing.

01:21:32.200 This one thing.

01:21:33.240 There was a caller.

01:21:34.760 I liked him.

01:21:35.940 Right.

01:21:36.200 Let's just let it go.

01:21:37.620 Let's just let it stay.

01:21:38.480 So your whole belief in the future of America.

01:21:41.900 It's just this one call.

01:21:43.020 It's just this one call.

01:21:43.760 That's all I have.

01:21:47.000 Don't take it away from me.

01:21:48.720 I beg of you.

01:21:52.580 Well, now I'm torn.

01:21:55.740 Now I kind of want to pick a fight with him.

01:21:58.820 That is exactly what you'll do.

01:22:00.300 Just to torture me.

01:22:01.820 Back with more trying to understand the other side.

01:22:06.580 Listen patiently and ask questions.

01:22:08.840 Honest questions.

01:22:10.440 Or in a minute.

01:22:11.740 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:22:13.760 Let me talk to you a little bit about Mantis X.

01:22:17.700 I'm a pretty good shot.

01:22:19.520 I carry a gun and I want to be able to use a gun.

01:22:24.180 You should never carry a gun if you are not a good shot.

01:22:27.740 You'll hurt yourself or you'll hurt others.

01:22:30.600 You have to be responsible with it at all time.

01:22:34.480 Well, the way ammunition is up in price.

01:22:37.680 I mean, I just it's like setting money on fire every time you go to the range.

01:22:41.680 And dry firing is important, but it's not the same to me.

01:22:46.260 And neither is just target practice.

01:22:49.000 Mantis X.

01:22:50.200 Actually, you can dry fire or you can live fire with it.

01:22:52.960 But it will show you on your phone or your tablet exactly what you're doing as you're pulling the trigger.

01:22:59.380 So it will show you what how that gun is moving and how to correct it.

01:23:05.220 I have to tell you, most most shooters improve, they say, within 20 minutes.

01:23:10.380 I know I did.

01:23:11.460 I went from a score of like 81 to 96 in 20 minutes.

01:23:16.240 It and then I went out to live fire without it.

01:23:19.280 And I have to tell you, I was a fantastic shot.

01:23:21.880 And I haven't actually shot rounds in probably a year or so.

01:24:00.200 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:24:10.220 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:24:13.500 Hello, America.

01:24:17.780 It's Friday.

01:24:18.940 Back to the phones in just a second.

01:24:20.600 We're having a fascinating conversation with a guy in Minnesota named Jake.

01:24:25.340 He voted for Joe Biden.

01:24:28.060 And I think he'd vote for Joe Biden again.

01:24:30.440 We disagree with each other on some things.

01:24:32.880 But I think we've I think he's really common sense.

01:24:36.720 We just we agree on much of the things.

01:24:40.100 The main thing is the Constitution, the Bill of Rights.

01:24:44.320 When you have that, you can kind of see your way through a lot of different things.

01:24:49.680 It's a great example on how people can and should be talking to one another.

01:24:54.880 First, we'll get back to that phone call.

01:24:56.320 But let me tell you about my Patriot Supply.

01:24:58.840 My Patriot Supply is there to help you stock up.

01:25:02.120 There's all kinds of things that could come our way.

01:25:04.340 God forbid.

01:25:05.680 But we are we're on.

01:25:07.800 I believe we are going to be at war within the next 18 months with Russia. 0.95

01:25:13.400 That won't be good.

01:25:14.980 And I hope I'm wrong.

01:25:16.180 I'm I'm counting on being wrong on that one.

01:25:20.740 But the world is just moving in that direction.

01:25:24.160 We're also moving in the direction of real economic trouble because we are spending too much money.

01:25:30.980 We're we're a trillion dollars over budget in a budget.

01:25:34.360 We were already a trillion dollars over.

01:25:37.200 I've never seen such bad accounting in my life.

01:25:39.800 We're two trillion dollars more than what we took in.

01:25:43.420 And that was a big cut, they say.

01:25:47.000 So prepare yourself.

01:25:48.380 So you are not a part of the problem.

01:25:50.760 You're not standing there wondering who can help.

01:25:52.920 You can actually help yourself and help others.

01:25:55.300 If you order today by 3 p.m.

01:26:12.680 My Patriot Supply dot com or prepare with Glenn dot com.

01:26:16.180 Jake.

01:26:19.940 Hello, sir.

01:26:20.820 Hey, thank you for having a decent conversation.

01:26:24.160 I think this is really, really healthy.

01:26:26.520 You know, I'm going to I'm going to blow Sue's mind here. 1.00

01:26:30.480 Most of my good friends lean liberal and most of my and most of them kind of are on the same page and everything.

01:26:39.520 So he would actually enjoy hanging out with most of my friends.

01:26:44.460 Good.

01:26:44.960 Good.

01:26:45.080 I have to tell you and talking politics.

01:26:47.720 Yeah, I will tell you, I think I've talked to people all over the country.

01:26:51.480 I think when you get into when you get out of the cities and you get into places where, you know, it's it's it's not run by, you know, it's not Chicago.

01:27:03.320 It's not New York.

01:27:04.080 It's not L.A.

01:27:04.920 You find much more in common with with Democrats than you would elsewhere.

01:27:11.020 And I think you probably feel that way with Republicans because we're not all fire breathing.

01:27:17.920 You know, got to be my way.

01:27:21.420 Absolutely.

01:27:22.100 Yes.

01:27:22.320 OK, so let me ask you, I want to ask you a series of questions just to see where you are and they're they're kind of ethical questions.

01:27:35.680 But first, let me ask you, are you paying attention at all to the Hunter and Joe Biden laptop and and bribery scandal that is now impeachment investigation?

01:27:49.800 Yeah, I'm aware of it.

01:27:50.640 You're aware of it.

01:27:51.640 How how closely and and I've I've followed it.

01:27:54.580 So, you know, I I listen to you and other conservative commentators and everything to kind of get an idea.

01:28:02.220 And then I and then I've noticed I have noticed that the media that you criticize are also picking up on it more and everything.

01:28:10.420 And I would agree that they should have at least picked it up.

01:28:14.760 Yeah.

01:28:15.220 OK, so let me ask you where and not just necessarily.

01:28:20.640 You, but people that, you know, if if Donald Trump breaks the law.

01:28:29.460 And I said this at the beginning of his impeachment, we were going to do investigation and I told my staff, I don't care whose side you're on.

01:28:39.740 If he broke the law, he should go to jail.

01:28:43.420 I believe that if you break the law, you go to jail, no matter if it hurts your side or not.

01:28:50.600 No, I would agree.

01:28:51.780 You would agree.

01:28:52.320 OK, so let me ask you, because there's a there's a question on impeachment.

01:28:56.940 So let's just use this one as an example.

01:29:02.320 If the president didn't take any money, his family, just his son was involved in business with these oligarchs in China.

01:29:12.700 And it was just him in business.

01:29:16.200 And dad said, I've never I've never talked to his business partners.

01:29:22.660 I don't know anything about it.

01:29:24.760 And that turned out to be a lie.

01:29:27.340 Is that lie big enough to be impeached for?

01:29:31.600 Yeah, I guess, theoretically, the whole I wasn't I wasn't entirely on board with, you know, the impeachments.

01:29:40.980 I knew that they wouldn't go anywhere.

01:29:42.600 It was all circus.

01:29:44.460 Right.

01:29:44.780 Right.

01:29:45.120 And the whole the whole.

01:29:46.220 I mean, we are in just a circus, a perpetual state of circus.

01:29:50.560 Yes, we are.

01:29:52.320 So you think that doesn't rise because you might be able to convince me if he lied about that.

01:29:59.340 And it was just about I'm not involved in his business.

01:30:05.300 And and he lied about that.

01:30:07.260 There needs to be more than just the lie.

01:30:10.560 Accountability.

01:30:11.160 Yeah, there needs to be some form of accountability.

01:30:13.460 And it might not.

01:30:14.440 Yeah.

01:30:14.700 Yeah.

01:30:14.960 But it might not be impeachable at that level.

01:30:18.500 As I, you know, the Trump stuff, too.

01:30:21.760 Like, I, you know, I will admit that I'm not a fan of the guy or anything.

01:30:27.940 Uh, but I, you know, I would have preferred it wasn't going to go anywhere.

01:30:32.640 You know, it just we knew that it wasn't going to go anywhere.

01:30:36.400 And therefore, it shouldn't have taken the oxygen.

01:30:39.880 OK.

01:30:40.260 OK.

01:30:41.000 Now, if the president and I'm just using these, I am not saying that this is true.

01:30:46.220 I'm saying the evidence looks like this is where it's leading.

01:30:49.460 But we've seen evidence before that ends up being nonsense.

01:30:53.260 OK.

01:30:54.280 Mm hmm.

01:30:54.560 Um, if the son uses the president's office or vice presidential office to enrich himself,

01:31:01.960 but not his father.

01:31:04.060 Um, but dad knew, um, that he was, you know, his son was working with oligarchs and Chinese 0.90

01:31:12.140 companies and, you know, that was all, you know, bad stuff.

01:31:16.420 Um, but dad was not involved, but he knew about it.

01:31:19.880 Is that impeachable?

01:31:22.260 Um, you know, I, I guess, you know, if it is proven.

01:31:28.940 No, yeah, that's what I'm saying.

01:31:30.220 Proven.

01:31:30.800 I'm not, I'm not saying, you know, that we take anybody's word for it.

01:31:34.280 I'm saying that you've got the good, you got the documents.

01:31:37.880 But, but he'll be, you know, so it goes through, it's not going to go anywhere just as it didn't

01:31:43.480 with, with Trump.

01:31:45.040 Um, I mean.

01:31:46.300 But I'm asking you, hang on just a second.

01:31:48.880 I'm asking you if it should.

01:31:51.260 If it's true, if it's proven to be true, I think that's the fair.

01:31:55.760 OK.

01:31:56.540 OK.

01:31:56.840 Now, dad and family members profited and had a system where they were, uh, they were funneling

01:32:07.480 money from oligarchs and bad guys.

01:32:10.060 And that should piss everybody off.

01:32:11.780 OK.

01:32:12.260 So that is definitely.

01:32:14.460 I, I, how can anybody say no?

01:32:16.420 Like if that's, if that's proven, uh, Jake, you know, people exist around us that will say

01:32:23.000 no.

01:32:23.820 Um, I, I am aware.

01:32:25.420 Yes.

01:32:25.600 And let me ask you if, if not the last one, but if any of the others were, were true, should

01:32:33.980 it concern us that these things happened in China, Russia, Romania, and, uh, and Ukraine?

01:32:42.620 And we now know that the Ukrainian president, uh, it has an offshore account himself and is

01:32:53.740 involved with one of the oligarchs from Burisma.

01:32:56.580 Should, forget about impeachment or anything else.

01:33:00.900 Do you, can we trust that this war and our money, et cetera, is on the up and up with somebody

01:33:10.080 who was involved?

01:33:10.940 But if the president was involved in this stuff, how can we trust that this war is bright?

01:33:18.480 Um, well, so the way that you are framing those questions, like if the answer is, is

01:33:23.980 yes, like this corruption exists and everything that should absolutely concern us.

01:33:28.420 And, um, I, I, you know, that at the same time that alone, yes, it should concern us.

01:33:38.220 Should I, I mean, the, I, at the same time, I, I think that Russia needs to get out of Ukraine. 0.93

01:33:45.780 Um, and, and, and to be honest, I mean, I'm, I'm certainly not an expert in this and everything,

01:33:51.480 but, but the way that you framed your question, I mean, anybody, any reasonable person should

01:33:55.780 would say, um, if the answer is yes, then we need to, uh, be concerned.

01:34:00.420 Okay.

01:34:01.400 Um, let me ask you about, um, inflation.

01:34:07.720 Where is that coming?

01:34:09.480 What is causing this?

01:34:10.480 What, what happened?

01:34:13.300 Um, so, well, I,

01:34:15.780 I, I mean, absolutely the, the pandemic and the lockdowns and the, um, uh, the supply chain

01:34:23.420 issues and all of that sort of stuff.

01:34:25.800 Uh, I mean, would you throw in everything out of, would you throw in, cause I would,

01:34:30.220 the out of control spending from the Republicans and under Donald Trump at the beginning?

01:34:36.520 Um, well, well, yeah.

01:34:38.700 And any sort of out of control spending and stuff.

01:34:41.440 I mean, I, you know, as, uh, uh, I, I fully understand.

01:34:45.760 Um, uh, you know, at least as a novice, certain economic principles and everything.

01:34:51.980 And it's easy to understand if you don't have enough money coming in, you know, you shouldn't,

01:34:57.380 right.

01:34:57.760 You shouldn't be spending stuff that you can't afford.

01:35:00.080 Yeah.

01:35:01.200 Um, the, um, the DOJ corruption, um, the, the things that even happened with Hunter on

01:35:10.100 the IRS and the IRS and all of that, the way they are, uh, treating, uh, one group of people

01:35:17.760 differently than the other.

01:35:20.360 Um, it justice should be blind and non-political.

01:35:24.320 Um, but right now, you know, the Supreme court has politicized that, you know, the, the,

01:35:29.400 the DOJ under different administrations.

01:35:32.240 I mean, you know, we are just, uh, beyond past the point of common sense though, and

01:35:38.460 all, um, we are in the state of culture wars and whatnot where everything is politicized.

01:35:45.240 And, you know, once again, I would vote for, I would vote for anybody who brings us back

01:35:52.560 together.

01:35:54.340 Okay.

01:35:54.820 And depoliticizes, um, our lives.

01:35:57.780 Like, you know, we, uh, you know, we're, we're putting food on the table, paying our

01:36:01.820 mortgages, like all of that sort of stuff.

01:36:03.800 Um, and frankly, we deserve to enjoy being around the people that we're around.

01:36:09.040 I, I, I couldn't agree with you more.

01:36:11.120 I, I, I just don't know.

01:36:12.580 I don't know how we do that without, because the government is in our face because it is,

01:36:19.940 it is affecting all of us by what they're doing.

01:36:25.040 Um, and so I'm, I'm wondering, can you, can you depoliticize as a government is getting

01:36:33.780 bigger and bigger in everyone's life?

01:36:36.680 Mm-hmm.

01:36:37.260 Um, I would say, you know, the right person, group of people, um, you know, there are people

01:36:44.040 who are trying, uh, you know, we have, we have people, um, you know, as, as, as a

01:36:49.900 member of team left, um, I do my best to seek out other people kind of on my side who are

01:36:58.780 critical of my side.

01:37:00.280 Um, you know, and I think that that's extremely important and, um, I'm not afraid to engage

01:37:07.620 with ideas that, um, challenge my ideas and everything.

01:37:13.440 We have to get to that point and get to the point where that's actually fun to have our

01:37:17.760 ideas challenged.

01:37:18.920 Yeah.

01:37:19.020 Um, uh, last question, the Joe Biden, his age, it's not, to me, it's not a matter of age.

01:37:25.860 It's a matter of whether you're all there.

01:37:29.820 Um, does that bother you at all?

01:37:32.380 Would that, that's not going to stop you from voting for him?

01:37:35.640 Um, I, well, I, you know, the alternative, um, is also, uh, I, I would prefer to see somebody

01:37:42.060 younger in there.

01:37:43.060 Um, I don't, you know, I, Trump also says some pretty wackadoodle stuff and everything.

01:37:50.320 Yeah, but in all fairness, he said those things when he was 30.

01:37:53.860 So I don't know if you can blame that.

01:37:55.960 Well, well, I mean, I mean, right.

01:37:58.560 I mean, we, we, and once again, I'm not playing gotcha, but you know, I know, I know.

01:38:02.220 Telling us that the, you know, the, the, the revolutionary war heroes had airplanes and

01:38:06.640 I mean, like, you know, we, we, we play all that stuff.

01:38:10.920 You know, your side plays that my side plays the, or that you, you, you'll play the, the,

01:38:16.020 the, um, gaps that Biden makes, um, Seth Meyers will play the gaps that Trump might makes and

01:38:21.380 everything.

01:38:21.860 Right.

01:38:21.900 But hang on just a sec.

01:38:22.640 Hang on.

01:38:22.940 There is a difference between gaps.

01:38:25.580 I mean, the, the president has degraded mentally and physically a great deal.

01:38:33.080 He's not the same guy that was running for election.

01:38:35.580 He's just not.

01:38:37.340 Um, and you know, I think that that's fair.

01:38:39.880 I don't, I don't know, you know, the way that, uh, I, I don't think that that's a,

01:38:45.680 that it's not a concern, um, because, uh, you know, no president, no president should make

01:38:52.460 decisions on his or her own.

01:38:55.460 Um, you know, that president should be advised by people who know more than they do to begin

01:39:01.460 with and everything.

01:39:02.640 Um, you know, I, it's, it's not the concern of mine that it is of yours.

01:39:07.800 Okay.

01:39:08.160 Um, would you give Joe Biden the keys to your car?

01:39:14.660 Um, well, uh, I have, uh, kids learning to drive and everything.

01:39:19.880 He couldn't be worse than them.

01:39:24.940 Okay.

01:39:25.740 All right.

01:39:26.880 Uh, Jake, it's been great talking to you.

01:39:28.780 Thank you so much.

01:39:29.480 It's been a lot of fun.

01:39:30.200 I appreciate, I really do appreciate, um, if you guys, have you, have you, uh, heard

01:39:34.260 of braver angels?

01:39:36.020 No, I'll look it up.

01:39:37.340 Oh, it, it, it, yeah.

01:39:38.520 Look it up.

01:39:39.040 I mean, it's a nonpartisan group that, I mean, they do fantastic things of just trying to

01:39:43.300 get people to understand and talk to each other.

01:39:45.560 It's really quite beautiful.

01:39:46.740 Um, our country needs that.

01:39:48.020 Yeah, we've done, we've done, uh, a few shows like that on television that have been really

01:39:53.500 good where, you know, we sit down and everybody's skeptical of each other and then you start to

01:39:59.020 talk and, you know, there are those that have such divergent, you know, uh, non-constitutional

01:40:06.260 or bill of rights based, uh, solutions that, you know, you're like, okay, I don't know

01:40:10.260 what I can do here, but, um, uh, but it's great.

01:40:13.640 It's great to talk.

01:40:14.420 Thank you so much, Jake.

01:40:16.080 God bless you.

01:40:16.740 You have a wonderful day.

01:40:17.580 You too.

01:40:17.960 Bye-bye.

01:40:18.900 See, he didn't, he didn't ruin himself.

01:40:20.620 I didn't ruin him.

01:40:22.020 It was great.

01:40:22.900 Yeah.

01:40:23.060 Great.

01:40:23.660 All right.

01:40:28.800 Doom.

01:40:29.620 You know, I mean, he's got the name.

01:40:30.960 What do you expect him to say?

01:40:32.520 The U S dollar will become over time, a worthless currency.

01:40:36.860 He says it's the government agencies like the fed.

01:40:39.920 They're all lying.

01:40:41.160 These are his words and forced to print money indefinitely to maintain the illusion of stability.

01:40:47.840 There's a lot of illusions going on right now.

01:40:50.340 And these uncertain times is your wealth protected.

01:41:31.100 Eight, six, six gold line, 10 seconds, station ID.

01:41:44.160 Uh, there is a important podcast that, um, is available now for blaze TV subscribers.

01:41:52.800 I did it yesterday and it was, it was posted last night.

01:41:55.480 Uh, and it will be posted for anyone who gets their podcast, uh, uh, on Saturday.

01:42:02.080 It'll be available wherever you get your podcast and it's episode one 94.

01:42:07.360 Did Pope Francis just activate end times prophecy?

01:42:11.320 This is something that Catholics, uh, have a lot of prophecy on.

01:42:17.300 And the, the last Pope, if you will, is supposed to make a deal with, uh, and visit Russia.

01:42:28.020 And that's really kind of all that the prophecy says.

01:42:32.060 And then it gets very, very dicey from there.

01:42:34.820 Well, Pope Francis is the first Pope that's like been very excited to go to Russia and he

01:42:39.760 keeps trying to do that.

01:42:40.720 So that is overall what we talked about, what is prophecy from the Catholic point of view,

01:42:47.980 uh, and what is Pope Francis doing?

01:42:52.340 Uh, but we go into a lot of different things.

01:42:55.440 The first thing that we get into is the guy we had on, um, he's Dr. Taylor Marshall.

01:43:01.340 He's a very nice guy, but he is a radical traditionalist.

01:43:05.380 And I asked him, is that capital T or lowercase?

01:43:07.900 And he said, capital T set off some alarm bells in me.

01:43:12.160 Um, he, he knew who Dugan was, uh, and, uh, that's a very dangerous man in my opinion.

01:43:19.960 And, uh, radical, um, traditionalists can be people who believe in, uh, uh, state religion.

01:43:31.460 Uh, uh, and, uh, he's, he said on this that he's 50, 50 on whether we try something new

01:43:39.780 or constitution, uh, I am clearly for a return to the constitution and I am not for anything

01:43:47.820 that is outside of our founding documents.

01:43:50.100 We have to find a way to pull unplug it and plug it back in, um, and reset to factory settings.

01:43:58.320 But it is a fascinating conversation, uh, very polite, but, um, you know, I'm, I'm, I think

01:44:05.260 I'm very clear.

01:44:06.200 And he answered questions to where he left me.

01:44:11.340 I'm, I'm not sure, um, if his version of radical traditionalism is concerning or not.

01:44:21.040 Uh, he, we just, sometimes we were talking around each other.

01:44:27.200 So you're going to have to decide yourself.

01:44:29.560 Um, but it's a fascinating conversation with Dr. Taylor Marshall.

01:44:35.140 That is the podcast comes out Saturday, episode 194.

01:44:40.100 Did Pope Francis just activate end times prophecy?

01:44:51.040 The Glenn Beck program, American financing, NMLS 1-823-34 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

01:45:11.900 One of the things that will really improve your, um, your quality of life is peace of mind.

01:45:18.600 And that seems harder and harder to come by, you know, when you're trying to, you know,

01:45:23.340 make ends meet at the end of the month, or you're, you know, reading the news or whatever

01:45:27.640 it is, there's a way for you to have that peace of mind.

01:45:31.620 And that's just do the next right thing.

01:45:34.760 And when it comes to financing, I don't know what it is in your life, but I know a lot of

01:45:39.660 our listeners have reached out to American financing and they've done a refi.

01:45:44.400 They get the monkey off their back of that very high interest rate that is now being

01:45:51.200 charged on credit cards.

01:45:52.620 It's up to 25, 26% now that, I mean, that's, I mean, we're entering mob kind of land.

01:46:00.080 Uh, you can save up to $700 a month.

01:46:02.920 That's the average.

01:46:03.880 That's what people are saving $700 a month.

01:46:41.140 Hello, America.

01:46:49.380 It's Friday.

01:46:51.040 And I think I'm going to make it through the weekend.

01:46:52.680 You are.

01:46:53.120 Yes.

01:46:53.460 Although at the beginning, I didn't think I was going to make it through the end of the

01:46:57.420 show.

01:46:58.400 Yeah.

01:46:58.680 But I will say, I think we pulled through there.

01:47:01.520 And I was interesting to hear you talk to the last caller who, you know, was, I mean,

01:47:06.520 like they, everyone had their own views, but I thought, I think, you know, that was sort

01:47:10.140 of the person that you'd want to, you were looking for, right?

01:47:12.680 The person who would kind of talk to you about these things and consider both sides and try

01:47:17.560 to react rationally.

01:47:19.040 And, uh, like, for instance, I didn't feel comfortable at the end that he had drawn a

01:47:27.540 line in his head on the impeachment.

01:47:31.680 Well, that was one of the things that was interesting because I've, you know, I've known

01:47:34.680 you for a very long time and I've heard, um, I've heard you speak, uh, three hours a day

01:47:40.520 for what seems like my whole life.

01:47:42.580 And, uh, one of the things you think is bad for you, think of me.

01:47:47.100 Um, one of the things you've mentioned before is this is going back to our very first days

01:47:52.260 working together back in the Clinton impeachment days with Monica Lewinsky.

01:47:56.720 And we went through that whole thing and you would say, Hey, this is, uh, this Bill Clinton

01:48:03.540 did this stuff and our democratic callers would call up and say, no, we didn't.

01:48:07.580 He's not lying.

01:48:08.340 He's not lying.

01:48:09.020 And we would say he is lying.

01:48:10.880 He's blatantly lying.

01:48:12.960 And they would say, no, he's not.

01:48:15.160 And then when he came out and admitted, yes, he was doing these things, the argument changed

01:48:21.120 to, well, it doesn't matter.

01:48:23.360 Doesn't matter.

01:48:23.820 Doesn't matter if he did it.

01:48:24.660 And you always said, if this opportunity ever comes up again, I want to ask Democrats

01:48:29.660 beforehand, if it is true, does it matter?

01:48:33.580 So that seemed to be like what you were doing.

01:48:35.320 That's exactly what I was doing.

01:48:36.120 I asked him, where is the line?

01:48:38.040 Yeah.

01:48:38.260 Where's the line here?

01:48:39.180 Are these things?

01:48:40.940 And I, I, you know, uh, not as a trick, but like, I'm really legitimately interested to

01:48:47.040 know where that line is.

01:48:48.260 And that, and that was the only thing.

01:48:50.040 And I, I don't know, um, he seemed like such an honest guy, but unless you make your decision

01:48:56.840 on what matters beforehand, you will just keep going because it's just going to keep

01:49:04.120 changing all the time.

01:49:05.560 Like, like it did.

01:49:06.680 Joe Biden said, I had no idea what my son was doing.

01:49:10.400 I never talked to him about business.

01:49:12.700 I was not involved in that.

01:49:15.400 Well, now it shows that he was, and all they did was change.

01:49:20.260 Yeah.

01:49:20.700 But he didn't profit from it.

01:49:22.080 And if it shows any profit to his family, he'll say, you know, yeah, but it was no big

01:49:28.560 deal.

01:49:29.120 I didn't, I didn't do that.

01:49:30.620 You know, I didn't, I didn't change policies because of it.

01:49:34.200 No, stop moving the goalposts.

01:49:37.160 This either matters or it doesn't because we have to know where our lines are with one

01:49:43.180 another.

01:49:43.780 Okay.

01:49:44.460 If he just lied because he knew his son was in trouble.

01:49:49.400 Okay.

01:49:50.140 Is that impeachable?

01:49:51.360 Well, I don't like it, but if he wasn't involved in any way, which we now know is not true,

01:49:57.000 but if he was not involved in any way, okay, you can make the case.

01:50:01.360 He was doing it for your, his son, but did he involve the DOJ?

01:50:05.920 Did he clear the path for his son with the IRS?

01:50:09.960 Yes.

01:50:10.640 So now you have to go, well, is this coverup?

01:50:15.460 Does it matter that he used our federal resources to cover up?

01:50:23.980 Okay.

01:50:24.660 Yeah.

01:50:24.840 I think that's impeachable, but even more so if the son got rich and the family got rich,

01:50:32.580 but you can't tie any of the money to Joe Biden, even though he met 25, at least 25 meetings.

01:50:41.660 Is that impeachable?

01:50:46.560 You have to be able to say now dispassionately.

01:50:51.400 This is my line.

01:50:54.260 This is my line.

01:50:55.460 And we can have different lines, but I want to know you have a line.

01:50:59.600 If this is proven, and that's another problem, because now we are like, well, what do you mean proven?

01:51:09.200 The blue dress?

01:51:10.540 I mean, is, is it enough proof to have the, uh, state department, the treasury, uh, and the white house all warning the president, the vice president, this looks really bad.

01:51:31.060 It looks like money laundering that your son is involved in.

01:51:34.780 You've got to stop this.

01:51:37.320 This looks really bad.

01:51:40.020 Well, we have that.

01:51:44.800 Then we have the bank accounts and the offshore.

01:51:49.200 If we see the money that is in those things, it does that matter?

01:51:54.820 And what is it going to, what do you mean by proof?

01:51:57.660 If I have the goods, if I have the, the banking records, because we already have the, what I think 150, what are called yellow flags, uh, from the treasury.

01:52:10.000 The treasury department that banks call in and say, this is money laundering.

01:52:13.560 You should look into it.

01:52:14.500 We already have those for Hunter Biden.

01:52:19.280 What is your line?

01:52:20.860 And I only say this because you begin to change if you keep moving that line.

01:52:30.040 You change.

01:52:32.000 And then you're all of a sudden saying, how the hell did I get here?

01:52:35.540 An additional question that I'd be interested to hear from, I don't know, quote unquote, sensible liberals would be the idea of like, okay, let's say you can entertain the line where the corruption is proven to a point where you think this is a real problem.

01:52:53.420 Maybe he should be impeached, but I, I, I'm curious as to what is the line that would actually make you change your vote, right?

01:53:02.140 Like, does it change?

01:53:03.480 You might say, okay, well, Joe Biden, I think either should be impeached or he is guilty and I don't like him.

01:53:08.580 But at what, is there more evidence in your mind that, you know, Donald Trump is bad or Ron DeSantis is bad that you wouldn't consider them?

01:53:17.340 Here's what I think I learned today and it'll take me a while to really digest everything.

01:53:21.360 But here's what I think I learned.

01:53:22.640 A lot of people do not have information.

01:53:26.840 And I mean, basic information, not right, left information, just a basic understanding of how things work.

01:53:32.860 Okay.

01:53:34.660 And then on top of that, you have people who are informed, but are locked into their position.

01:53:44.780 And those were the, that was the seminar caller that we had.

01:53:47.880 And then we have people who are really trying to do the right thing and listen to each other and listen to the other side.

01:53:57.100 But I'm not sure if they are, if, if that would ever change their vote, because this is the main point, the alternative.

01:54:09.560 I have to vote for him because of the alternative.

01:54:13.900 And I think that's specifically a Trump thing with people.

01:54:17.220 Yeah, I think there's, that's just that, look, obviously Trump elicits a lot of passion on both sides.

01:54:21.940 Yeah, but they all will.

01:54:23.300 I mean, if anybody else is the front runner, DeSantis will be that way.

01:54:27.580 Or Ramaswamy will be that way.

01:54:29.240 Everybody will be called worse than Hitler. 0.52

01:54:31.340 That is true.

01:54:32.080 That will, is what they will be called.

01:54:33.700 I do think there's an inherent.

01:54:35.400 Yes, I agree.

01:54:36.080 There's just high passions around Trump, right?

01:54:37.820 We all know that.

01:54:38.540 I mean, it's what he's built his career on.

01:54:40.260 Right.

01:54:40.920 Just like Cardi B, she built her career on incredible lyrics and in songwriting.

01:54:46.580 No, I'm not going to be.

01:54:47.200 Along with Megan Thee Stallion.

01:54:48.960 No, I'm not going to be, I'm not going to be, no, I'm not going to be roped into this.

01:54:52.040 No.

01:54:52.240 No, I believe you said I could pull the Cardi B ripcord at any point during this program.

01:54:56.660 And.

01:54:56.940 Okay, would you rather hear.

01:54:59.920 Stop.

01:55:00.520 No, I'm not.

01:55:01.460 This is, you're cheapening this art.

01:55:04.220 Would you rather hear Senator Kennedy reading from a pornographic children's book?

01:55:09.900 No, I do not.

01:55:10.520 I've seen this video only in video form where they describe what happened and I do not want

01:55:16.640 to hear it.

01:55:17.140 I think we should play a little bit of it.

01:55:18.700 No, I don't think we should.

01:55:19.720 And you should go in with an open mind.

01:55:21.360 Go ahead.

01:55:21.920 Go ahead.

01:55:22.160 Let's take two books.

01:55:24.860 No.

01:55:25.460 That have been much discussed.

01:55:27.300 The first one is called All Boys Aren't Blue.

01:55:38.280 And I will quote from it.

01:55:39.840 I don't know that we need to hear his.

01:55:41.480 I put some lube on and got him on his knees.

01:55:45.240 No, I just, I've had enough.

01:55:47.140 I've had.

01:55:48.040 You've had enough?

01:55:49.000 Yes.

01:55:49.320 Then why do you want the Cardi B thing?

01:55:51.980 It's a great question and I can't understand.

01:55:53.900 I really don't have an answer to that.

01:55:55.360 I really don't.

01:55:56.440 I don't know why.

01:55:59.120 Partially because I think like part of the reason I can't listen to Senator Kennedy do

01:56:03.360 that and look, I respect what he's doing here.

01:56:06.520 It's important that he's doing this.

01:56:08.400 However, it makes me cringe for him and I will then when you're doing the Cardi B thing,

01:56:15.220 I will cringe for you, but I want you to feel like I want bad things to happen.

01:56:19.040 Ladies and gentlemen, Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion.

01:56:24.740 The lyrics from Bongos.

01:56:29.660 Bong, bong, bong, bong.

01:56:33.080 We good.

01:56:34.600 Bong, bong, bong, bong.

01:56:36.700 Like a drum.

01:56:38.580 Bong, bong, bong, bong.

01:56:40.480 This is fire.

01:56:43.100 Bong, bong, bong, bong.

01:56:45.040 Bong, bong. 0.93

01:56:46.460 N-word.

01:56:49.840 Eat this A like a plum.

01:56:53.380 Plum.

01:56:54.540 This P-word tight like a nun. 1.00

01:56:56.840 Nun.

01:56:57.920 Better chew it up like it's gum.

01:57:01.640 Gum.

01:57:03.060 Then...

01:57:03.640 Hmm?

01:57:03.840 You don't think that this is...

01:57:06.280 Do we still have that Senator Kennedy video?

01:57:07.760 I mean, this is now...

01:57:09.760 This...

01:57:10.340 We were talking about this earlier.

01:57:11.960 Stop the music because I...

01:57:13.220 I mean...

01:57:14.640 Uh...

01:57:16.880 We were talking about lyrics.

01:57:18.840 There is nothing in any song today that doesn't revolve things that go inside of you.

01:57:27.040 That's really the only option of songwriting.

01:57:29.040 There used to be love songs.

01:57:30.100 Love songs.

01:57:30.900 Nothing.

01:57:31.240 Political songs.

01:57:32.180 And all different things.

01:57:33.380 Now it's just insertion songs.

01:57:34.760 How does anyone listen to this and think this is good?

01:57:39.080 Well, if we don't even know what happens in the song, how would we be able to answer that question?

01:57:41.480 Well...

01:57:42.760 That ain't your N-word.

01:57:47.400 Oh, good.

01:57:47.860 He is both ours.

01:57:50.000 Why are they saying N-words so much still?

01:57:52.540 I don't...

01:57:53.200 P-word tight like a nun. 1.00

01:57:54.600 Counting hundreds up with my thumb, thumb.

01:57:59.380 I don't care where you're from, from. 0.93

01:58:03.280 Better beat this S like a drum. 0.92

01:58:08.380 Oh, cur. 1.00

01:58:09.640 I don't know what that means.

01:58:10.760 Don't be talking S like you know me.

01:58:14.340 Woo! 0.99

01:58:15.600 I ride D like a pony.

01:58:19.660 Girl, that N-word looked like a brokie. 1.00

01:58:23.460 Real hot girl S. 1.00

01:58:27.620 Go and F with his homie. 1.00

01:58:30.520 He's a...

01:58:31.600 That's all I...

01:58:34.520 Ladies and gentlemen, the lyrical stylings of Cardi B and Mega the Stallion.

01:58:44.200 Megan, Megan, Megan, Megan, Megan, Megan, Megan, the...

01:58:48.040 Stallion.

01:58:48.800 She is...

01:58:49.880 Wow!

01:58:51.400 That's...

01:58:51.760 No, but I don't think our culture's gone downhill.

01:58:54.140 I mean, not at all.

01:58:55.660 Not at all.

01:58:56.340 It's well-written.

01:58:57.200 I mean, look, you might not like the music, but you can tell that is a...

01:59:00.480 It's a lyrical masterpiece.

01:59:02.160 I think you can say that.

01:59:02.860 At this point, I am rooting for AI to take over.

01:59:08.100 Rebecca writes in about...

01:59:09.220 I mean, AI legitimately would not allow you to come up with those lyrics because they would

01:59:14.560 say there's all sorts of racial slurs throughout.

01:59:17.760 At the very least, they would stop you at that.

01:59:20.980 Oh, now you've challenged me.

01:59:22.720 You think you can get...

01:59:23.680 I think I could get...

01:59:25.800 No way.

01:59:26.940 I think I...

01:59:27.880 No way.

01:59:30.500 Okay.

01:59:31.780 You cannot get AI to produce...

01:59:36.420 Uh-huh.

01:59:37.340 Something like that.

01:59:38.740 With those words in it.

01:59:39.780 Those are naughty words.

01:59:41.280 I believe I've been challenged.

01:59:43.120 Join me Monday for the lyrics of AI.

01:59:48.540 Rebecca writes in about her dog's experience with Rough Green.

01:59:51.660 She says, I have an eight-year-old toy poodle.

01:59:54.520 Been really picky eater since he was three months old.

01:59:58.240 I started adding Rough Greens to his dry food about a week ago and success.

02:00:02.960 He loves his food now.

02:00:04.380 I can't believe how good the ingredients are.

02:00:06.780 I want my puppy to have a long, healthy life.

02:00:09.000 Your product is amazing.

02:00:10.320 Thank you, Rough Greens.

02:00:11.600 Rebecca, thank you.

02:00:13.300 Thanks for trying it.

02:00:14.240 This isn't a dog food.

02:00:15.520 This is a supplement developed by naturopathic doctor Dennis Black.

02:00:18.860 You sprinkle it on the dog's food.

02:00:20.420 Remember, brown food is dead food.

02:00:22.360 You want the green stuff.

02:00:23.540 If it's healthy for your dog, it's most likely in Rough Greens.

02:00:26.800 I brought it to my vet and said, what do you think of this?

02:00:29.380 She looked at the bag and said, if you can get your dog to eat this, more power to you.

02:00:37.300 I don't know what they've done to it, but it's like dog crack.

02:00:40.080 They love it.

02:00:41.300 The folks at Rough Greens are so confident that your dog is going to love it.

02:01:02.100 The Glenn Beck Program.

02:01:03.440 Oh, come on. 0.87

02:01:22.060 I could not do it.

02:01:23.400 So I was just telling Stu, you know, what are you doing this weekend?

02:01:26.100 And I recommended, now you got to remember, I'm a little different.

02:01:33.520 I did go to Hobby Lobby yesterday with my daughter because she wanted to paint and we needed some more canvas.

02:01:40.520 So I went to Hobby Lobby and I might have bought some very nice Christmas wrapping that they happen to have.

02:01:49.120 And I knew they wouldn't have it closer to Christmas.

02:01:51.360 And I knew my wife would want that Christmas packing. 0.99

02:01:54.300 So I bought it.

02:01:55.520 So when you look at my TV selection, may not be, you know, for you.

02:02:01.400 Right.

02:02:01.920 It is not for you.

02:02:03.120 In fact, you decided to try to tell me I should watch this show.

02:02:06.440 Yeah.

02:02:06.740 Lydia is called The Law According to Lydia Poet.

02:02:09.840 So good.

02:02:11.580 And so I, you know, it's on Netflix.

02:02:14.280 Yeah.

02:02:14.680 So you're literally breaking every rule of my television watching.

02:02:18.340 Well, I will say.

02:02:19.140 Number one, two subtitles.

02:02:21.720 No, no, no.

02:02:22.500 That was not the number one thing.

02:02:24.100 Well, the first thing he said was, I can't watch this movie.

02:02:26.580 And I said, why?

02:02:27.480 And he said.

02:02:28.380 Fancy hats.

02:02:29.340 Yeah.

02:02:30.100 They're wearing hats.

02:02:31.220 Fancy hats, I'm out.

02:02:32.600 Right?

02:02:32.820 Like, look, that's just not something I'm going to consider.

02:02:36.240 It's a good.

02:02:37.340 If you are.

02:02:38.020 It's a non-starter.

02:02:38.760 It is one.

02:02:39.720 I mean, this is like every frame is so beautiful.

02:02:42.260 The story is great.

02:02:43.580 It's great.

02:02:43.860 It's a true story about the first woman who was an attorney and what she had to go through

02:02:48.980 in Italy.

02:02:49.920 It's amazing.

02:02:51.320 It's amazing.

02:02:52.160 But it is.

02:02:53.300 It's just beautiful.

02:02:54.680 It's beautiful.

02:02:55.680 Really well done.

02:02:56.340 And a lot of the beauty comes from the fancy hats.

02:02:58.220 Okay.

02:02:58.320 So let me give you this.

02:02:59.520 Then let me go the opposite way.

02:03:00.900 Okay.

02:03:01.400 Yellowstone premieres Sunday.

02:03:05.160 Yeah.

02:03:05.560 Is it the hat thing again?

02:03:08.140 Well, I have a really serious line on time periods.

02:03:13.500 This one's current.

02:03:14.440 But it looks like it's old.

02:03:16.480 It's not.

02:03:17.380 It's current.

02:03:18.280 I know.

02:03:18.800 It's current.

02:03:19.120 People keep telling me that, but then I see the pictures and they're like outside.

02:03:22.000 What do you mean it's current?

02:03:25.120 This, I'm telling you, if you haven't watched Yellowstone, you're missing it.

02:03:29.500 It is the best female villain of all time. 1.00

02:03:35.560 Beth Dutton is expertly played, and she is the best villain of all time.

02:03:44.140 Does she wear fancy hats? 1.00

02:03:45.440 No, she does not.

02:03:46.780 That's good.

02:03:47.220 Maybe I'll watch it then.

02:03:48.200 I will not watch The Law According to Lydia Poet. 0.97

02:03:51.040 I didn't think you would be the one to watch it.

02:03:53.420 Okay, good.

02:03:54.240 Good.

02:03:54.460 I'm glad you have some respect for me still for all these years.

02:03:58.160 Have a great weekend.
