Claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament.
00:00:04.640
She was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column
00:00:10.960
Good thing Claudia is with Intact, the insurer with the largest network
00:00:18.320
and she was on her way in a rental car in no time.
00:00:20.720
I made it to my tournament and lost in the first round.
00:00:26.000
Intact Insurance, your auto service ace. Certain conditions apply.
00:00:31.680
One thing that really can bug a lot of people are bugs, okay?
00:00:37.120
Did you hear about the zombie spiders that are now out?
00:00:39.920
I don't know what zombie spiders are. I don't want them.
00:00:44.880
Mosquitoes that think your backyard is a buffet.
00:00:51.760
And Moxie Pest Control is the team that makes sure your home stays your home.
00:00:55.840
And they don't just blast poison around and hope for the best.
00:01:02.560
and put a force field against the ones that you don't want.
00:01:09.440
They do exactly what they say they're going to do.
00:01:14.320
you can get your first pest control service for just $25.
00:01:38.720
the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.
00:01:42.400
We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.
00:01:47.440
But to keep this fight going, we need you right now.
00:01:50.480
Would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast?
00:01:53.520
Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single review helps us break through
00:01:58.320
big tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.
00:02:03.840
This is a movement and you're part of it, a big part of it.
00:02:07.280
So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up,
00:03:30.380
It's getting more interesting even on the Friday
00:03:54.540
Now, when I said things are getting even more interesting
00:04:53.040
Praying your neighbor isn't filming this for YouTube
00:22:28.620
believe we've hit AGI. So that's scary. But anyway, it's going to change and get even harder
00:22:38.880
for labor all across the board. But you're asking a question, calling from Washington,
00:22:45.840
you really have, you've seen this firsthand. You either have to change the leadership in
00:22:52.600
Washington State, or you need to move to a state that understands. Washington State is,
00:22:57.980
I believe, as lost as California and Oregon. They're not coming back. They're going to get
00:23:04.120
worse and worse and worse until they can collapse on their own weight. And I think that's close.
00:23:09.720
But you've seen firsthand what happens because you can't afford as a business to pay somebody
00:23:16.640
as a entry-level job to do those things and then pay them something where it's just,
00:23:24.020
I'd be better off paying somebody who has real skills to do that and ask them to do a little
00:23:30.360
bit more. That's the way business thinks. They're not going to pay somebody who doesn't know how to
00:23:35.240
do the job. Those high, high levels. The only thing that will solve that is not the federal government.
00:23:40.380
It's your own state. Those are state and they should remain as powers of the state.
00:23:53.160
You ever stop to think about all the moments in life that really hinge on one single decision?
00:23:58.200
Maybe it was the job you took, the person you married, the move you made. Looking back,
00:24:02.460
it's amazing how one choice can alter the whole trajectory of your life.
00:24:06.140
Now think about this. A young woman sits in a clinic. She's scared. She's confused. She's
00:24:10.980
convinced she has absolutely no options. Everybody in her life tells her that.
00:24:15.060
She's on the edge of a decision that will change her life and another life forever. And in that moment,
00:24:21.220
what she needs most is the truth, not pressure, not judgment, just a glimpse
00:24:25.000
of the child growing inside of her. And that's what pre-born provides, free ultrasounds that let her
00:24:31.000
see the reality, hear the heartbeat, and recognize this isn't a problem to solve. It's a life.
00:24:37.660
Now the problem to solve is how do you raise that child? How do you afford to do it?
00:24:42.600
Pre-born is there for that too. Your monthly support is so critical. $28 a month will save a life.

00:25:38.560
losing all kinds of credibility and people are switching parties like they've never switched
00:25:43.940
away from the Democratic Party before. And here's why. Everybody's favorite, Congresswoman Crockett
00:25:54.940
Ice, for the most part, is nothing but a ride. That's all they were supposed to do for the most
00:25:58.760
part, right? It's like, you know what? This person is undocumented or this person reentered the country
00:26:04.940
illegally, all the things, and then they have an ice hold. And then ice gets them so they can
00:26:11.180
then send them out. That's all ice is supposed to do. Look at them as a fancy Uber driver for
00:26:15.360
immigrants. That's all they're supposed to do. And now they're running into places, doing raids,
00:26:21.220
and they're falling all over each other, injuring each other. Like, we are a joke.
00:26:29.420
No, she's with Gavin Newsom. She's fabulous. Can we go to cut three?
00:26:36.020
Tell me what it's like in D.C. Tell me what you think this is really all about.
00:26:41.740
So it's very dystopian to see. It's funny because I used to watch like The Handmaid's Tale
00:26:48.620
and I can't, right? I never finished and I can't watch it because it is too close to reality.
00:26:56.020
And so what we're seeing is this militarization. And obviously, it started in your state.
00:27:04.740
That was kind of the testing grounds. Going to your state, going to a black woman mayor's city first.
00:27:12.700
And now we are in yet another black woman-led city and taking over. And to me, it goes, again,
00:27:21.860
to the level of racism and hate that is constantly spewed out of this administration.
00:27:28.240
What a stunning twist. That's like M. Night Shyamalan. I would never expect her to go through a racial claim.
00:27:34.820
Whoa! I know. Now let's go to Prisker, the governor from Illinois, and what he has to say about what's going on. Cut five.
00:27:44.420
I built a Holocaust museum. And one thing about that experience that I can tell you, and I worked with
00:27:51.320
Holocaust survivors for more than a decade to build this museum. One thing I learned in the process of that
00:27:58.660
is that it doesn't take very long to tear apart a constitutional republic. Indeed, the Nazis did it
00:28:05.740
in 53 days. And our democracy is almost as fragile. Started in 1922. And we're seeing it right now.
00:28:17.680
Yes, we are. Who's been tearing it apart, you fat? Anyway, so now we're pre-Nazi Germany,
00:28:26.020
according to him. Uber drivers, ICE, it's the Handmaid's Tale in Washington, D.C. It's pre-Nazi
00:28:34.700
Germany in Illinois. And here comes Stacey Abrams to help us with more. Cut six.
00:28:42.280
I want to tie this back to the abundance agenda and how you think about blue state power. If it is
00:28:49.360
true that he's a grand Ayatollah, that mystical power extends and can be, you know, he can anoint
00:28:59.580
his, you know, his prophets and he can remain in. Stop. So we are good. We are now, he's now the
00:29:08.740
Ayatollah. He's Hitler in the Handmaid's Tale, who is also the mystical Ayatollah, who is appointing
00:29:18.700
new prophets. We have said he has a lot of energy, Glenn, and there's a lot of different
00:29:23.240
roles to pull off. He is covering a lot. Now, he's also trying to make peace. But Susan Rice,
00:29:30.840
with all of her deep, deep credibility, has something to say about that.
00:29:35.240
I mean, really, Nicole, it's pathetic. It's been clearly and repeatedly established,
00:29:41.380
including by the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee, led by Marco Rubio, that Russia
00:29:48.680
interfered in the 2016 election by disinformation campaigns, by social media efforts, by all sorts
00:29:58.500
of means, short of manipulating the actual vote. And that's just a fact. Now, obviously,
00:30:05.860
Donald Trump doesn't like that fact. He doesn't like the fact that the intelligence community
00:30:09.980
and the Senate Bipartisan Intelligence Committee assessed that this interference was intended to...
00:30:17.700
Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. I can't... How is this still happening
00:30:22.460
with no pushback from, what was it, ABC or NBC? No pushback from NBC. None. Zero. All of the
00:30:30.840
documentation has come out. The show, she was part of the conspiracy. She was part of it. She was a ring
00:30:38.300
leader in this. It's now showing all the documents, the facts. There's this little fantasy that the
00:30:46.300
deep state has been pushing. And then there are the actual documents written to and by people like
00:31:00.020
Wow. So, wow. And that strange Hitler, mystical Ayatollah and...
00:31:06.740
And guy who... Handmaid's Tale guy who just wants everybody dressed in red robes cannot get that
00:31:17.100
Glenn, you've worked with charities for a long time. Have you founded your own? It's done all this
00:31:22.800
incredible work around the globe. Would you consider potentially putting together a fundraiser
00:31:27.500
for the Democrats to come up with another literary reference than The Handmaid's Tale? Like, is it
00:31:33.760
possible we could get them a different book just so they could say that title of it? Now, I know
00:31:38.720
Jasmine Crockett, of course, is so stupid. She couldn't even act like she read the book. She only said
00:31:44.520
she was watching the Hulu show. But still, can we get them some reference other than The Handmaid's Tale?
00:31:52.760
They're already doing it. They're already doing it. When you talk about literary stuff, they're
00:31:56.320
already doing it, Stu. Here we go. You ready? They have now, the DNC has now blacklisted terms
00:32:03.100
that they don't want any of their people using. Okay? Oh, okay. Now, tell me what these terms
00:32:09.760
have in common blacklisted terms, privilege, violence, as in environmental violence, dialoguing,
00:32:22.140
triggering, othering, microaggression, holding space, body shaming, subverting norms, systems of
00:32:32.420
oppression, cultural appropriation, the Overton window, existential threat to the climate, existential
00:32:39.980
threat to democracy, existential threat to the economy, radical transparency, stakeholders,
00:32:47.420
the unhoused, food insecurity, housing insecurity, people who immigrated, birthing person, cisgender,
00:32:55.960
deadnaming, heteronormative, patriarchy, LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, allyship, incarcerated people, and involuntary
00:33:08.180
confinement. Those are the words that the Democrats are now telling their people, don't use any of
00:33:14.960
these words. Those are the words that they forced everybody to use. So they are reading from a new
00:33:22.220
book. They're just burning their own book. It is absolutely incredible what is happening right
00:33:30.300
now. Just absolutely nuts. I don't see how they're going to get through conversations without those
00:33:35.880
words. Those are the only words they say. I know, I know, I know, I know. I could just add, I could just
00:33:42.400
add some conjunctions in there and I could make that into a speech. Let me go to, let me go to Eve in
00:33:49.340
Utah. Hello, Eve. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. Good morning. Thanks for taking my call. It's a privilege to
00:33:55.260
speak with you gentlemen. I am calling from the bluest red state in the union, that'd be Utah. I have been
00:34:01.780
reading the headlines in KSL and how Governor Cox is refusing to send troops to arrest immigrants. I'm calling
00:34:09.220
specifically to say that there are, I think there's a significant problem here. I've seen illegal immigrants, at
00:34:16.340
least I'm assuming. I'm just assuming. But these are people who are not proficient in English. I'm going
00:34:21.740
into 7-Eleven. I'm going into school districts are hiring a lot of illegal aliens. I know because the
00:34:28.900
kids that are in the classes are parts of members of families that are here from Venezuela, from
00:34:37.220
Guatemala, from different countries in Africa. I have questions or concerns about Best Buy hiring a lot
00:34:44.400
of people who I'm not sure if they're documented, immigrants. But I have friends who cannot get hours
00:34:52.840
at their work because they've got supervisors, specifically at Best Buy, one friend in particular
00:34:57.460
who could not have, who had to quit because she was not getting the hours that she needed to support
00:35:03.620
herself. She had a Spanish supervisor who was hiring other Hispanic employees. And then if
00:35:11.040
you spoke Spanish, she felt like she was discriminated against because she didn't speak
00:35:14.680
Spanish and she was not getting the hours that she needed. She had to quit. So I see a lot of this
00:35:20.540
in, like, I don't know, in different companies and different businesses where I have friends and
00:35:28.720
neighbors who are applying for jobs and they're not getting them because they don't speak Spanish or
00:35:34.940
So let me make some very controversial statements here about your phone call. First of all, let's
00:35:41.420
start with KSL. If you're getting your news from KSL, be careful. You know, there's always been a
00:35:46.620
trusted source in Utah and for many reasons. And they, just like everybody else, has a really hard time
00:35:59.120
hiring journalist that are not woke. It's the same thing as some of the Utah universities, BYU in
00:36:06.700
particular. That has gone woke. How has that gone woke? Because they can't find anybody to fill those
00:36:14.940
jobs that can live the standards and also not be woke. So you have to be really careful of the sources.
00:36:23.060
Don't take anything that you see in some of these sources to be gospel, if you will. Be very careful
00:36:31.560
and be aware. And that doesn't, that's not a universal blanket on anything. That is just be aware
00:36:36.840
of that. Stop trusting some of those sources because who owns them. Start trusting the sources because
00:36:44.640
they are actually telling the truth. And in some cases, in many cases, that is not happening in the media.
00:36:52.260
No matter who owns it. The second thing is, I'm really concerned about Utah. You hit it right on the nail
00:36:59.800
right on the head. It is the red, it is the bluest red state. That thing used to be so deeply red. But they
00:37:08.140
have chipped away little by little. Cox is, is a very, he's a big part of that. But they have chipped away
00:37:17.060
little by little. And I think, personally, I believe in Isaiah. And any, any place that claims to be,
00:37:29.800
you know, God's people, Rome, you know, the Bible Belt, Utah, Isaiah comes to mind all the time.
00:37:41.700
And I will clean out my own house first. I think these, these cities that claim to be very religious
00:37:52.400
and have let it go to literal hell because the people have, have just been
00:37:59.880
arrogant. They just think it'll always be this way. I think Utah is coming for a giant reckoning.
00:38:10.660
Uh, there's a reason I live in Idaho. There's a couple of reasons, but one reason I live in Idaho
00:38:15.640
and not Utah is because I think Utah is going to pay a very, very heavy price for the things that
00:38:21.560
they are allowed to happen. And every time I go into the big cities in Utah, I am shocked at how
00:38:28.400
bad they are. Um, so you just need to wake your neighbors up. And if your neighbors are awake,
00:38:35.140
you must be active. It's the same story in Texas. Texans are asleep at the switch. Now I am thrilled
00:38:44.300
to see that Chip Roy is running, um, and is going to be, uh, I think hopefully we'll be elected as our
00:38:52.960
next attorney general. Ken Paxton will go into the Senate. I think those are great things, but locally,
00:38:59.940
the problem many times is locally and you have to be awake and Texans are asleep. I think Utahns are
00:39:08.600
absolutely asleep and you have to wake up, uh, on that and do the things locally that will hold
00:39:16.340
your city's feet to the fire and hold your city's feet to the constitution and to the actual rule of
00:39:22.800
law. Look at those blacklisted terms that the Democrats are now running from. They created all of
00:39:28.320
those terms. They're now running from all of those terms. You hear anybody in your city using those
00:39:34.520
terms, make sure you let everybody know that's somebody that shouldn't win the next election and
00:39:42.300
you do something about it. You organize and do something about it. Local, local, local. But I think
00:39:49.880
you're right about what you're seeing. All right, back in just a second, let me, uh, tell you about our
00:39:54.160
response for this half hour. It is Z factor. Sometimes our culture treaps. I'm sorry. What
00:39:59.060
is it? Oh, it's my Patriot supply. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm on the wrong hour. I'm just ahead of myself.
00:40:05.700
Let me tell you about my Patriot supply. Everyone has that friend who thinks, you know, the apocalypse
00:40:09.760
looks like, uh, you know, zombies pouring down main street. I don't think that's what it's going to be
00:40:14.560
like. Although did I tell you about the zombie spiders I read about today? I don't know what those
00:40:19.020
are, but I don't want to know what those are. Uh, you know, I don't know if we're all going to need
00:40:22.700
bunkers and, you know, crossbows learning how to tan leather by hand. I don't know. Um, but there,
00:40:29.260
I know there are going to be lots of things that are going to be a lot boring than that. Power
00:40:34.220
outages, supply chain breakdowns, grocery stores cleaned out before you even get there, that kind
00:40:39.000
of stuff. You don't have to be that guy to be ready. You don't have to live in a bunker or start
00:40:45.280
a farm. Although I wouldn't, I wouldn't pass on that. If you have the opportunity, you should do one
00:40:50.400
simple thing. Get food from my Patriot supply. The emergency food kits are built for real people,
00:40:56.340
real situations, and a 25 year shelf life packed to last easy to store. And you don't need to wear
00:41:02.040
camouflage to enjoy them. Although that also helps right now. My Patriot supply is giving away four
00:41:07.580
weeks of emergency food kit. Just go to my Patriot supply.com. Find out how to claim your free four
00:41:12.500
week food supply and join millions of Americans who are preparing with my Patriot supply. That's a four
00:41:17.760
week emergency food supply that you can claim right now at my Patriot supply.com slash Glenn,
00:41:23.600
my Patriot supply.com slash Glenn. You can ignore reality, but you can't ignore the consequences.
00:41:33.400
There's rough terrain ahead. Saddle up my friend and stay tuned. Glenn Beck will be right back.
00:41:47.760
We have to take phone calls more often. I mean, the phones are jammed with your thoughts and you
00:42:05.540
know what you want to talk about. And I want to take you. I also, I was just not going to be able
00:42:09.420
to get to everything. I want to talk to you about the new VW subscription to more power for your car.
00:42:14.420
What does that mean? It's again, a renter's state again, a second wave of inflation,
00:42:20.400
I believe is coming. We should talk about that. Chat control, really terrifying control from the
00:42:28.060
state on that. And I also want to talk to you about Angela from Tennessee. She called in yesterday.
00:42:33.680
I want to talk to you about the American dream being in ruins and its renewal. We're going to do
00:42:38.640
that next. This is Glenn Beck. Do you remember when you were a kid and you play freeze tag?
00:42:45.300
You know, you tap somebody freeze and then they would stop in their tracks. It was fun,
00:42:49.600
you know, then, but what if you could do that? If you could do the real grownup version and every
00:42:54.460
Democrat would freeze, uh, do that when danger shows up. Wouldn't that be great? That's what honestly
00:43:00.360
the burner launcher feels like it's a non-lethal self-defense tool that files, uh, fires chemical
00:43:05.920
irritant rounds, pepper projectiles, uh, tear gas, and all of it is strong enough to stop an attacker
00:43:12.660
and have them freeze without taking a life. You don't need a permit. It's legal in all 50 States.
00:43:17.820
It's designed to be easy and to carry and to quickly deploy when seconds matter. I carry mine with me now
00:43:25.440
everywhere because it gives something everybody wants, but few people actually have peace of mind.
00:43:30.340
I have the peace of mind because I gave it to my daughter too. She moved out and she's living on
00:43:34.020
her own now. Make sure that she carries it. Childhood freeze tag was a game. This is the real deal.

00:45:01.660
Hello America. Welcome to Friday. We're glad you're here.
00:45:05.880
Inflation is, I think, coming back for a second round. I want to talk to you about that today.
00:45:11.080
I want to talk to you about John Bolton. There was a pre-dawn raid at his house for
00:45:17.140
secret documents, classified documents. I'm not sure I have anything to add to that other than the news
00:45:24.140
of it. I just don't know what to think of that yet. Also, there is something called
00:45:31.080
chat control that is on its way all around the world that will stifle all freedom of speech
00:45:40.300
online that is really important we discuss and let you know what's coming. Also, Elon Musk tweeted
00:45:46.180
yesterday the new chat GPT. He said, when you see it, I believe we are now at AGI. That is good news.
00:45:57.620
And I think really bad news. We'll talk about that. And I want to pick up where we left off
00:46:03.340
yesterday with Angela from Tennessee. If you were listening yesterday, it was a young girl.
00:46:07.060
Well, she was in her 30s. And she said, you know, she's really struggling. And she was starting to
00:46:13.260
see that maybe we should go the democratic way. Maybe we should have rent control. Maybe we should
00:46:17.900
have all these things that the government does more on. And that is going to become very, very popular
00:46:24.220
because things, especially with AI, are going to change. And I've been saying this now for, oh,
00:46:30.760
I don't know, two decades, we have to have these conversations now before they hit. Um, because we
00:46:37.700
are, well, let me get, let me take 60 seconds and I'm going to come back to this because it's,
00:46:43.460
there's a lot that's been going on in my mind lately on this issue on how to combat this. And I'm not sure
00:46:49.820
I, I have it yet, but I, I at least think I understand the problem and I think I can navigate
00:46:58.480
a way out of it, but it's, it's early. So let me run that by you here in just a second. First,
00:47:03.440
let me tell you about real estate agents. I trust.com. So, you know, buying and selling a house
00:47:09.220
is extremely complicated. It is really, it's, it's hard. Tanya and I for about two years,
00:47:16.900
maybe three years, uh, have been looking for a house in Florida. We were talking about when the
00:47:22.220
kids grow up and they move out, you know, do we want to live in Texas? I want to work in Texas.
00:47:27.740
I love Texas. Um, but she's always wanted to live by the water and I can't live in Houston. Uh,
00:47:34.540
and so we started looking for a house in Florida and we, I mean, we just, this poor real estate agent
00:47:40.980
from real estate agents, I trust.com. Um, Lisa true is her name. And for two years we were back
00:47:48.520
and forth with her and we're like, I don't know. We're not sure if we're going to move, blah, blah,
00:47:51.840
blah. Just keep looking for us. And she did. And I kept saying to her, I hate to waste your time.
00:47:56.260
She's like, no, no, it's good. Uh, and like four months ago we decided, nah, I don't think we're
00:48:02.440
going to move to Florida. We just couldn't find the right place, but she had listened to us,
00:48:06.640
really listened to us. She calls us up about two months ago, maybe, and said, I think I found the
00:48:13.420
house you guys have been looking for. And she was right. And we got on a plane and we looked at it
00:48:18.260
and we bought it because it was exactly the house. She listened to us. This is the kind of real estate
00:48:23.480
agent that you're going to find. She took us through all of, believe me, there were a lot of things that
00:48:28.520
had to be done and she took through all of it and made it so easy. That is exactly the kind of real
00:48:34.600
estate agent that you're going to find all over the country. When you call realestateagentsitrust.com,
00:48:39.960
it's a battlefield. Don't bring a foam sword, bring somebody who actually knows what they're doing.
00:48:46.340
Realestateagentsitrust.com. That's realestateagentsitrust.com. It's a referral service
00:48:50.680
free to you. All right. Let me take Joe in Florida. Hello, Joe. Welcome.
00:48:56.940
Hello. Pardon me if I stutter. I'm super nervous. And I've been listening to you guys since 2007.
00:49:07.640
Oh, don't be nervous, Joe. It's just us and 11 million friends.
00:49:12.840
Exactly. So what I really wanted to talk to you about was AI in capitalism.
00:49:23.240
Um, so, so other than, uh, other than GPT five, uh, having everybody's baseline, um,
00:49:33.480
psych profile, uh, between threads, um, I'm really struggling to, uh, to, to picture, um,
00:49:42.960
how the free market and how capitalism works. If AI, um, is going to take so many jobs and, um,
00:49:53.060
uh, and so many people are going to be out of work. Well, sure. If we, if we make things cheaper,
00:50:01.520
who's going to have money to pay for anything and how do we overcome that? Um, are we going to go
00:50:08.580
UBI? Um, are we going to, uh, tax, um, private businesses for, um, for, uh, uh, using, uh, AI? Um,
00:50:21.240
how do we find balance? Um, cause it's like, if you, if you give the private, uh, the private sector
00:50:28.620
too much for freedom, we always, uh, do the, do the wrong thing, like with interest rates. Um,
00:50:35.740
but too much government doesn't work either. So how do we move forward? How do we find balance?
00:50:44.900
Joe, that is the trillion dollar question. Um, that is something that I don't think anyone has an
00:50:53.040
answer for yet, but at least thank you, Joe, for thinking about this. Most people have not thought
00:50:59.800
this through. They have not really come to a place yet to where they see what AI is about to do. And it
00:51:06.140
is about to just destroy jobs. Now there is the hope that new jobs, uh, come out. Uh, but, uh, I'm,
00:51:16.660
I'm, I'm, you know, I'm having a hard time seeing it not destroy millions of jobs around the,
00:51:23.000
the, the world. Um, and so people are going to be unemployed and some of the great minds of the
00:51:29.400
great research reset, et cetera, including, uh, Noah of all Harari, um, has, um, has come out and
00:51:37.080
said, there's going to be useless people that we just need to keep on drugs. This literally, this is
00:51:41.580
what he says, need to keep them on drugs and keep them addicted to the internet. Uh, just keep them
00:51:45.880
busy. Um, that's, that's not sustainable. Um, I think honestly, you're seeing another solution in
00:51:51.820
Canada. Uh, they have just, uh, taken their maid program, which is medical assistance in dying.
00:51:58.400
Uh, and it was for just people who were at the end of life. They were in, you know, had a terminal
00:52:04.120
disease that was just like five, six years ago, terminal disease only. They have now adopted, uh,
00:52:11.040
uh, made for newborn children, newborn children. Now to give you an idea of how rare that is,
00:52:21.820
the last country that did this was Nazi Germany. The doctors up in Canada cannot keep up with the
00:52:33.400
current requests for medical assisted suicide. And it is in every, every sector, every walk of life.
00:52:42.780
It is the elderly. It is the sick. It is the non-sick. It is those with disabilities. Uh,
00:52:48.740
it is those teenagers that are going through depression. Now it's down to babies after you're
00:52:55.860
born. Not only can you kill them before you're born. Now you can kill them after, because I don't
00:53:00.520
know why. Is it an inconvenience? Is it, well, what is it? And if they say now, oh no, it's only for the
00:53:07.040
very, very, very, very malformed, uh, it will, that's what it was in Germany too. When they first did it
00:53:12.880
and you saw what happened in Germany. Uh, so you're going to see some of the worst of human
00:53:18.260
beings come out to solve this thing. You're also going to see things like UBI. That's a universal
00:53:24.680
basic income. Uh, I personally think there should be a tax and I haven't, I I'm not settled on any of
00:53:30.900
this. I think there should be a tax on those like Zuckerberg. Um, and quite honestly, Elon Musk,
00:53:36.840
the people who are going to be running these things and there's going to be a handful that are
00:53:42.860
worth trillions and trillions of dollars. Um, I'm sorry, but you used our information, our private
00:53:50.100
selves, and you're still using him, um, to, uh, to build these things. And then you took our jobs
00:53:56.540
away. I'm sorry, but that, that is the first time I've ever said that maybe we should share the wealth
00:54:01.940
a little bit. Um, Hey Jamie, this battery just went out. Um, so I think, you know, we, we have a lot
00:54:10.200
of talking to do here and I'm not sure that any of it that I am suggesting is right, but here's,
00:54:16.780
here's where I would like to, to go. Yesterday we had a phone call. We had somebody call in,
00:54:22.560
her name was Angela. She was from Tennessee and she talked about all of this. She's talked about how
00:54:29.100
all of this stuff is starting to collapse, um, that she doesn't really believe in anything.
00:54:33.420
And she's wondering whether maybe the government should do, should do more. Well, she, um, she
00:54:40.320
talked about how, you know, um, you know, she had done everything right. She had gone to college,
00:54:47.120
um, and now she came from nothing, built herself up and now she could just barely, you know, keep her
00:54:53.700
head. So her head above water. So I gave her some advice, but it bothered me all day
00:54:58.840
yesterday. And I want to come back to this because I've been thinking as I'm developing
00:55:04.100
this new venture of mine called the torch, uh, we've been looking for the imagery for it and
00:55:11.560
everything else. And I saw some things that our team has been producing and it included
00:55:16.140
the statue of Liberty and the flag and everything else. And as I'm watching that, I thought that
00:55:20.780
is so dated. That is this, that appeals to me and my generation, but I don't think that
00:55:25.600
appeals to anybody that is in their twenties because it doesn't, it's all empty. You know,
00:55:30.600
there was a time when the American flag meant something and it didn't need to be explained
00:55:36.740
at all. There was a time when the statue of Liberty was more than just an old outdated
00:55:41.120
tourist stop that when you saw it, sometimes it could move you to tears. It was a promise.
00:55:47.440
There was a time when the courts were considered the halls of justice, not arenas for politics,
00:55:53.380
but for people who are in their twenties and early thirties, um, I don't know. I think all
00:55:59.360
of that stuff feels hollow now, you know, the, the, the flag, it's a banner of somebody else's
00:56:05.560
dream. And lady Liberty is just a shell and the courts are just another place where power
00:56:09.920
decides outcomes, not truth. That American dream that I understand because of my generation
00:56:17.240
and my parents is gone because we didn't pass it on to our children and the schools and the media
00:56:24.540
and everybody else did a horrible job at this. If you're in your twenties or thirties, you were a kid
00:56:32.900
when your parents probably lost everything in 2008 and you saw the big banks, you know, bail every big
00:56:40.720
bank out. And then you saw maybe your mom and dad's business shuttered on main street. You watched
00:56:46.640
your parents work hard and have less for it. And then came COVID and you saw the government do the
00:56:54.520
same thing, bail out all, Hey, it's fine to be in home Depot, but that local Ace hardware, no, that's,
00:57:00.380
that's the plague. And none of that made sense. And jobs vanished and schools closed and freedoms
00:57:07.180
were curtailed. And the divisions in this country just froze like, you know, cracks in a frozen lake.
00:57:14.560
I mean, it was, it's not good. And that's all you've seen your whole life. And then you did the
00:57:21.320
right thing because what was right in the 1950s was still thought to be right today. And it wasn't,
00:57:27.240
but that was go to college. You did everything you were told was right. You chased the degree,
00:57:34.120
you took on debt. And then the jobs you got out, the jobs you were promised weren't there.
00:57:39.000
They never came. Well, they weren't. It's because you were being lied to about that.
00:57:44.360
Nobody could look over the horizon. Oh, I'm sorry. The people who actually have credible voices or so
00:57:51.600
you thought at the time would look over the horizon and say, no, it's fine. It's fine. Some of us were
00:57:56.840
saying, don't, don't do that. That's a lie. It's not going to happen. But we were discredited.
00:58:02.280
And now the house, it feels as distant to you. Buying a house probably feels like, oh yeah,
00:58:07.920
and I'm going to, I'm going to walk on the moon someday too. Capitalism, the system that built the
00:58:13.940
abundance that you see around you now feels like a rigged game because many times it is a rigged game.
00:58:19.600
It feels broken. It feels, it feels like it failed you. And quite honestly, it did. I, I see it.
00:58:26.160
I see it. I hear you. And you are not wrong to feel betrayed. Now the question is, what do you do with
00:58:35.960
that? So let me go there here in just a couple of seconds. Let me take 60 seconds break and tell you
00:58:41.820
about Rough Greens. If your dog could talk, you know, what terrible secrets would he had to bribe
00:58:47.460
to keep him quiet? You'd have to bribe him with everything to keep him quiet, right? Uh, you know,
00:58:53.140
the food I think would be a good place to start. You know, the sawdust that we all feed, you know,
00:58:57.940
it's like eating cardboard flavored with sadness. I think, um, kibble is really convenient and we've
00:59:03.740
always been told our whole life that it's really good for our dog. It's not, it's not everything
00:59:07.140
that your dog really needs has been so sterilized and cooked out of that, that it's nothing but a bunch
00:59:13.760
of, you know, it's like a pack of napkins for lunch. So Rough Greens, Rough Greens is the real
00:59:19.460
stuff. It's not a, it's not food. It's something that you put back onto the dog's food. They love
00:59:25.000
it. They really, really love it. So they'll eat all of their food, but it's also packed with vitamins,
00:59:30.140
probiotics, enzymes, and it'll bring life back into your dog's bowl. So here's what I want you

01:00:01.640
So the American dream, uh, is not what they told you this, the, the lies started long before the
01:00:07.820
bank started bailing everybody out, except your parents. The American dream was, was never about
01:00:13.640
the banks. It was never about politicians. It was, uh, not about what the universities say it was
01:00:19.680
all about. It was never about a white picket fence or a two car garage. You know, that was all a
01:00:24.420
marketing pitch. And I can tell you right where it came from. It came in the 1930s with FDR. Again,
01:00:31.940
it was a marketing pitch up until the 1930s. The American dream was just this freedom. It was being,
01:00:40.520
it was you not having to ask for permission to start a business. It was you not being cobbled by
01:00:47.400
heavy taxes and regulations. It was, it was about building and creating about being you without
01:00:53.860
having to ask, can I be me? It was all about dreaming just audacious dreams and then taking your
01:01:02.760
two hands and putting them to work and trying to make that a reality. Okay. What stole that dream
01:01:10.660
is not, it wasn't capitalism. It was control. A hundred years of policies from the progressives
01:01:19.960
where you were taught to wait, to comply, to memorize these because they're going to be on a test
01:01:26.140
to look to the government, to the experts, to the bureaucrats, everything requires permission
01:01:31.300
just to live your own life. And if it's not permission, it's a tax or a, some sort of a
01:01:37.680
form that you have to fill out. The dream wasn't broken. It wasn't broken by the people. It wasn't
01:01:46.320
broken by capitalism. The dream was strangled to death by the system. Okay. Now that,
01:01:54.560
if you can understand that now you have a new set of questions, symbols can be replaced when the old
01:02:05.080
symbols lose their power, new ones can rise or you can reinvigorate those symbols by putting new power
01:02:13.760
back into them. The new symbols of the American dream are not going to be marble statues or buildings.
01:02:19.940
The new symbols of the American dream go back to what they were before the progressive era.
01:02:26.040
You, the people, somebody who's working right now in their basement on something and they just think
01:02:32.540
they have something and them being able to keep that idea, enhance people's lives and get rich from it.
01:02:39.900
The craftsman that's turning a side hustle into something real. The entrepreneur that is not going
01:02:45.500
to wait for permission. The communities that stand together when the institutions fail them.
01:02:53.080
That's the American dream. And the danger here is, is that we are losing our symbols. And one of our
01:03:02.800
symbols is the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution because nobody knows what it really
01:03:07.740
is. So it doesn't have power to the average person. But that is, the Constitution is not a relic.
01:03:13.500
It's not a symbol. It is a root. Now, the good thing is, if our roots on this thing are still deep,
01:03:22.920
we are entering the storm of ages. And when a storm rages, those roots, if they're deep enough, they hold
01:03:34.040
and they survive. If the roots are so atrophied, it's just going to tumble and blow away. But the truth
01:03:40.800
isn't gone. Justice is not dead. Liberty is not just an empty vessel that is standing there as a
01:03:49.600
tourist trap. All of these truths have been buried for decades. Noise and lies. And here's a good thing.
01:04:00.060
It's going to be your generation that digs them back up. You're going to find them again. And you're
01:04:05.940
going to find them. Well, you won't find them if you're waiting for rescue. You won't. You'll find
01:04:11.160
them by daring to dream again, by daring to say, I don't care what you tell me. You're not the boss
01:04:17.640
of me. And you don't control my thoughts. I'm sorry. I can either choose thoughts that empower me or I can
01:04:26.460
choose the thoughts that disempower me. And I'm sorry. All the thoughts you're putting into my head
01:04:32.740
make me weak and pathetic. I'm not going there. I'm going to change my thoughts and change my life.
01:04:43.780
You know, you don't, you don't wait for somebody else. The American dream is truly American because
01:04:50.840
of who we used to be and who we, I think still are. We just have to find it in ourself. We just have to
01:04:57.380
believe it again. We are the people that went to the moon. We are the people that do these daring
01:05:02.960
things. And that is not dead. It's just changing hands. And they have, the older generation has
01:05:10.180
tried to convince you that it means nothing. You can't do it. It's in your hands now. And when you
01:05:18.440
grasp it, when you live it, not as a slogan, but as a way of life, you'll discover it was never about
01:05:23.380
chasing symbols. It was about becoming one. This is Glenn Beck. So have you ever noticed how life
01:05:38.380
itself doesn't slow down for you? The sun still comes up, you know, the world still spins. Your
01:05:43.040
grandkids still want to race you across the yard. Your kids still are just pulling on you. Come on,
01:05:46.920
come on, come on, come on. And your body feels like joining in or not. Life just keeps extending the
01:05:52.720
invitation. The question is, are you able to RSVP? Yes. Relief factor is not about chasing the dream
01:05:58.860
of feeling 20 again. It's about making sure you can answer that invitation. It's a doctor designed
01:06:04.140
formula that works to reduce inflammation. So instead of sitting it out, you're able to step
01:06:08.900
back into the story that's still being written. Imagine saying yes to that trip you've been putting
01:06:13.280
off. Yes to the yard work that's waiting. Yes to the game of catch instead of just, you know,
01:06:17.780
watching from a lawn chair. Okay. Maybe you still say no to the yard work because,
01:06:21.940
ow, my back really hurts today, honey. But I mean, there are things out there you want to say yes
01:06:26.860
