Transcript

00:00:00.000 I'm Hillary. That's your 4-Minute Buzz. And now here's Glenn and Stu with the show. Glenn,
00:00:03.600 welcome back in studio. Thank you. Very nice to be back. We have Home Title Lock as our sponsor.
00:00:08.640 One of the largest real estate title companies suffered a breach of nearly 900 million homeowner
00:00:13.260 files. Your home's title, your mortgage, your bank loans, your personal info may be in the
00:00:18.600 hands of identity thieves. They're going to forge your home's title so it appears that you sold it,
00:00:23.580 and then they get the loans from online lenders using your equity and stick you with the payments.
00:00:28.580 No identity theft program or any insurance covers you in this. And the first 30 days after a breach
00:00:35.900 are crucial. So I've got 30 days of protection for you for free. Go to HomeTitleLock.com for 30
00:00:42.000 days of free title and mortgage fraud protection. Home Title Lock puts a barrier around your house.
00:00:48.700 HomeTitleLock.com. Go there now. The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:00:54.820 Well, hello, America. Boy, are we at a crossroads. We are at this crossroads where we have to decide
00:01:04.000 what are we going to be? Who are we going to be? What is our republic? Right now, Bernie Sanders says
00:01:12.260 it's not appropriate to deport illegal aliens. I think there's more going on in the border on on the
00:01:19.480 border than most people think. Not you. I just think anybody who is really not paying attention
00:01:26.660 to this and like, oh, you know what? We got to have compassion. There's more going on.
00:01:30.940 And the Democrats are involved. And I'll tell you about it in one minute. This is the Glenn Beck
00:01:36.840 program. Okay, we've talked about, you know, the Federal Reserve and mortgage rates an awful lot.
00:01:44.740 We're at a point in our history where mortgage rates are now so low that we have an opportunity
00:01:50.580 to get our financial house in order and set our course for our family's future. Now, history tells
00:01:56.300 us that these rates are not going to last. So it's important that you take advantage to lock things
00:02:01.740 down. Now, a primary need your shelter like building a building on a rock rather than sand.
00:02:10.400 A mortgage at a low fixed rate is really super important because it provides stable financial
00:02:18.360 platforms for your family. With rates this low right now, it's worth the 10 minute phone call
00:02:23.780 to American Financing. Now, maybe you can afford that monthly mortgage payment that you, you know,
00:02:28.980 didn't have. You couldn't afford. Well, now with the mortgage rates this low, can you call
00:02:35.400 American Financing help you get into an into a home with little or no down payment? Please,
00:02:43.560 please be careful. But these are the people that I trust to help you through and navigate
00:02:48.980 this system with you. It's American Financing. Go to American Financing dot net American Financing
00:02:55.000 dot net. The number is 800-906-2440. That is American Financing dot net 800-906-2440.
00:03:02.740 American Financing. American Financing Corporation. NMLS 182334. www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
00:03:20.540 Do you know who's in control? If you see them, let them know that I'm looking for directions,
00:03:28.780 something solid, I can hold. Let me talk a little bit about, uh, let me talk a little bit
00:03:37.980 about the president. Last night, he did his first, um, uh, Spanish speaking interview. He didn't speak
00:03:46.780 Spanish, neither did the interviewer, but it was for, I think, Telemundo. It was, it was incredibly
00:03:53.020 unfair. It's everything that you would expect. Okay. Why are you ripping families apart? No,
00:03:58.820 I stopped it. I stopped it. It was Obama. We're not talking about Obama here, sir. Yeah, but I
00:04:05.280 stopped it. It was Obama. We're not talking about Obama here, sir. I mean, it's that kind of stuff.
00:04:10.480 So it's just so frustrating. I just, I endured it once. I don't want to have to endure it a second
00:04:16.620 time. Although he did a really good job. He kept his cool the entire time. He just kept,
00:04:24.320 kept restating the stack, uh, the facts. I thought he did an excellent job on that last night. And the
00:04:31.440 media is so convinced that they're right on this. And I don't think they are. I think people are
00:04:37.680 seeing, and I mean, Hispanics and everybody else, people are people. We all want secure jobs,
00:04:44.240 secure neighborhoods, safe places for our families. When he got into, uh, well, you said
00:04:51.940 that, uh, MS-13 members are coming over, but there's a lot of other people. Yes, but mixed
00:04:57.680 in those people, if it's one in a hundred, that's too many. We don't know who these people
00:05:03.740 are. I think that actually works for the average person. And I'm not talking about, man, I've been
00:05:11.540 traveling the country here this summer. And I, I just don't think people are playing the politics
00:05:18.680 game. Like talk radio plays it like certainly like the media plays it. We're hyper focused on this,
00:05:26.240 but the average American is pretty much done and they're just watching it, you know, from a distance.
00:05:33.560 And if he can remain calm and cool as he did, uh, all the way through,
00:05:40.340 he's, he's going to make an impact because this is getting worse and worse and worse.
00:05:48.900 And the Democrats, this, this compromise with Nancy Pelosi that they announced this weekend,
00:05:53.720 do you see that still on the border? Yeah. Yeah. They, he announced he was going to do these raids.
00:05:58.780 And then he said, at request of Democrats, I'm going to delay the raids for a couple of weeks to
00:06:02.920 see if they can work something out. So she did, she worked something out. Uh, she's going to provide
00:06:09.340 all of the funding so they can, you know, move on and, uh, help communities deal with all of these,
00:06:16.280 but nothing for actual security. Just, yeah, we'll help get these people out and on their feet.
00:06:22.800 No, that, that's, that's, that's not what we were asking for. And I think that, um,
00:06:29.800 I think that the average American is going to see through this game. And I think the Democrats
00:06:35.000 almost, I think they want him to act through executive order there because, because they're,
00:06:42.120 they're not acting reasonably here at all. And I really think that they want him to take this on.
00:06:48.700 And quite honestly, I'm at that point, Mr. President, just, we're going to lose our country.
00:06:54.840 We're going to lose our country. You can't have this kind of influx.
00:06:59.880 I find it interesting to the way the media looks at this, because if you go back to,
00:07:04.180 let's say when Republicans were saying, we don't want Planned Parenthood funded. Okay. And then they,
00:07:09.620 they quote unquote, shut down the government. And the focus was constantly on the victims,
00:07:15.320 right. Of, of this, of the shutdown, the people who didn't have their, you know,
00:07:19.400 the military people didn't get their paychecks. And like, they went through every case they could
00:07:23.600 to try. And when, you know, when the military paychecks came, then it was another thing. It
00:07:27.020 was always some desperate person who was being affected by the Republicans. And the, the idea was,
00:07:34.900 you know, Republicans should just get past this little thing they have with funding abortion
00:07:38.940 and give the money to the people who need it. Well, look at this situation. Tell me it's not the
00:07:43.460 exact same thing, right? Like Republicans are asking, saying like, look, give us money to deal
00:07:49.420 with all of these asylum claims and all these illegal immigrants that are crossing. You keep
00:07:53.180 saying that, you know, we're detaining them in this, you know, horrible, inhuman way. Well,
00:07:59.140 we need more money to deal with them as everybody has noted that the numbers are up in incredible
00:08:04.500 amounts. So they've asked for it. They've asked to take care of the problem Democrats are identifying,
00:08:12.100 right? That this, you know, these detainments are not, are not, you know, the best, right? They
00:08:18.860 want to, they want to improve them. So what do they say? What's the, what's the, is it, I mean,
00:08:23.700 if it was handled the same way, he'd say Democrats should get over the idea that they should not fund
00:08:29.400 this and they're pushing all the politics that are difficult on Republicans and deal with the actual
00:08:34.960 victims here. No, this again, it falls on the Republicans as, as the problem. The Republicans
00:08:40.580 aren't doing enough to, to help the illegal immigrants. And then they talk about whatever
00:08:45.620 Trump tweeted last week. Why, why don't the Democrats have to get over their ideological
00:08:50.880 upset with the president on this? Why don't they just have to give him the money?
00:08:55.940 So here's this very good point. And we all know the answer. I think that there's, you know,
00:09:01.960 there's a, there's no real honest broker on, on one side. You know what the Democrats are now proposing
00:09:10.640 is you have a leak in your bathroom and it's just pouring water out on the floor. What they're
00:09:19.380 suggesting is that they will help. They'll help. They'll help rebuild the walls. They'll help,
00:09:25.960 you know, uh, uh, rebuild the floor. Well, wait, I don't, I need help right now. Shutting the water
00:09:34.500 off. That's what we need. Shut the water off. Well, I'm going to make sure that everybody can get in
00:09:41.760 there and every, all the kids have boots. I don't want my kids having boots. Shut the water off.
00:09:48.340 That's the problem. And you know, it's, we can say that it's for whatever reason, but here's the
00:09:57.300 reason the Democrats are doing this. And I'm, I'm convinced of it. I don't have, I don't have
00:10:04.240 any evidence except past, uh, and, and past performance, uh, in exactly the same situation
00:10:13.400 over in Europe. All of the same people that are saying, open our borders, open our borders,
00:10:18.620 open our borders are the ones who said, you got to take on this, all these migrants. You have to
00:10:24.980 take them on. You have to take them on. And people like me were saying, you can't take them on. You
00:10:30.300 can't just have open immigration. You're going to have all kinds of problems. You're going to have,
00:10:36.900 you're going to have more rapes, more violence. Some of these people are good. Some of these people
00:10:41.880 aren't good. You're going to get extremists that are coming across your border. You can't do that.
00:10:48.840 You're also going to upset all of the people who feel like they're not being listened to.
00:10:53.060 So what's happening now in Europe, Europe is being torn apart. And what, what are the people in France
00:11:02.300 talking about? What are the people in Germany talking about? What are the, what are the people
00:11:07.060 all over Europe talking about? In Spain, in Greece, direct elections, full democracy, no republics,
00:11:17.240 one man, one vote, full democracy. What are they doing here? They're trying to get rid of the
00:11:24.000 electoral college. What, what the left is trying to do right now is bring the world to a place
00:11:31.400 to where you have true democracy, which is majority rules. Now in Germany, they're afraid because it's
00:11:42.940 the Uber right that is asking for direct democracy. Because the, the, the right is the one saying,
00:11:52.320 you know, you brought all these migrants in and now everything's going to hell and you're telling us
00:11:58.080 us to shut up. We can't talk about it. Well, we're tired of listening to you. You have the power.
00:12:04.160 You've had it too long and you're, you're trying to shut us up and you're, you're letting all these
00:12:10.700 people in and they're changing Germany, not for the better. They're not adding, they're bringing their
00:12:18.100 stuff and then telling us with your help, exactly how we're supposed to live. We've had it.
00:12:25.100 So in Germany, the left is very afraid of direct democracy. They're trying to stop it there in
00:12:34.980 France. They're not trying to stop it. So what's happening here? Well, we have our, our migrant
00:12:41.700 caravans, just like you had the migrant boats going up into Europe. They know this destroys a country.
00:12:51.420 They know it. They see it happening now in Europe. That's why they're trying to keep our borders
00:12:59.760 open. They know that it will divide us even more. They know that it will cause chaos. They know that
00:13:06.620 it causes political unrest. I know that sounds like a crazy charge to make. I know that. And I expect
00:13:14.720 everyone on the left and in the media, if they would ever cover anything, they would cover that as a
00:13:20.400 crazy conspiracy theory, et cetera, et cetera. But give me another reason. Because this is not
00:13:28.380 compassion. What you're doing, chaos is never compassionate. Never. You must have triage.
00:13:39.880 If you said, you know what, we got to get rid of triage. Everybody is hurting. We got to get rid of
00:13:44.580 triage. That's what they're saying. The United States is the hospital. And they want to get rid of
00:13:51.600 triage. Just everybody needs to get to a doctor. Well, what's that going to do to the hospital?
00:13:59.900 More people will die because of that. More chaos. And in chaos, you cannot heal anything.
00:14:07.900 So tell me exactly. Give me a better explanation because I don't buy compassion.
00:14:17.760 Chaos, as I have told you for 15 years, is the operative word of the future.
00:14:24.940 What do we have going down on the border? Chaos. Anything that encourages chaos, run from.
00:14:32.800 Nobody likes being manipulated, especially when it's done on the Internet. It's creepy when you do an
00:14:48.580 online search and then you're fed a barrage of ads and stories by companies that are trying to sell
00:14:53.060 you something. It's quite honestly, a personal infringement of privacy, I feel. And it's relentless.
00:14:59.920 It's even worse when cyber criminals invade your phone, your desktop, your tablet and steal your
00:15:06.180 private information, steal your identity. But there's an easy way to build a fortress around your
00:15:12.020 data. A simple VPN. Nobody is tracking you. Nobody is selling your information to, you know, to their
00:15:20.720 clients. You know, that's that's that's that's the one thing that you have to decide now that I don't
00:15:27.720 think we ever used to have to decide. Am I the product or am I the customer?
00:15:34.840 Facebook looks at you like a product. Google looks at you like a product.
00:15:40.360 Hey, they gather all the information they're selling you. That's what's different. And that's
00:15:47.780 why you need Norton Secure VPN, because nobody's collecting all of that information. I have a right
00:15:54.180 to be who I am. Go where I want to and have a right to privacy. You need a virtual private network to be
00:16:01.780 able to do that. That's why a VPN right now is really important. And you have to have it with the
00:16:07.820 right group, a group that you can trust. Norton Secure VPN, the convenience of the connected world
00:16:14.740 without the worries of online privacy and security. Just go to norton.com slash VPN protection starts
00:16:21.400 at three thirty three a month. That's norton.com slash VPN. Download the app, put the password in
00:16:28.900 once and everything runs through the VPN. No worries anymore. Norton.com slash VPN. We break for 10
00:16:37.700 second station ID. Holy cow. Just what a what a world we're living in right now. What a world we're
00:16:57.120 living in. I just let me throw this in real quick. I'm really excited to see beginning this weekend
00:17:03.320 here at the studios for our 12 score and three years ago museum. This museum is all about
00:17:13.900 learning from the past and we make direct correlations. This is the first time we've ever
00:17:20.300 done this direct correlations from the history to today. This is the history. This is how it happened.
00:17:27.360 This is what it was. This is today. You see if there's you see if there's any parallel
00:17:35.860 and you're going to learn history. You're going to feel history. You're going to you're going to
00:17:43.700 be surrounded with history and you can get your tickets now at mercury one dot org. It opens up
00:17:51.020 this. Is it Friday or Saturday? I think it's Saturday opens up the 30th and it runs until July
00:17:59.520 7th. And so if you're anywhere in the Dallas area, bring your family. I'll be here. David Barton will
00:18:06.640 be here. Stu will be here. I'm usually here for for the whole thing. I do give tours, but I can't give
00:18:14.940 all of the tours. And so there are selected tours where you can help mercury one on, uh, our, uh, on
00:18:22.880 all of our missions by, uh, ponying up for one of those. Nobody's making any money. It's all going to
00:18:28.580 charity. Um, but, uh, sign up, you can sign up to take a tour with Stu or I think Pat is Pat doing
00:18:35.740 one. I'm not sure. I know myself and Jeffy are doing one. What we'll do is we'll go through like
00:18:40.780 David Barton's tour. We'll just like, you know, kind of get to the back of that, watch his entire
00:18:45.820 tour, take all the stuff from there. And then we'll, we'll look really smart on our, on our tour.
00:18:50.180 That's really smart. And that's, that's, that's what a dummy. Anyway. Uh, so you could take,
00:18:54.680 that's a really bad philosophy there. Take the person who knows the stuff. We'll steal all the
00:18:58.900 good stuff. We'll add in, uh, making fun of you. That's a solid tour. Well, you didn't say the
00:19:04.340 make fun of me. I think that's expected. Okay. All right. Basically my job. So anyway, um,
00:19:08.980 it's, uh, the 12 score and three years ago, uh, pop-up museum. We invite you to come. I urge you
00:19:15.960 to come, uh, and be surrounded by a lot of like-minded people. It's always so great to have
00:19:21.900 the audience come together. Mercury one.org and mercury one.org. Get your tickets now for our pop-up
00:19:28.560 museum. Uh, you'll see the original emancipation proclamation, the Gettysburg address, um, all of it,
00:19:36.260 Mary Todd Lincoln's funeral dress, um, all kinds of, all kinds of stuff, but tied directly to today
00:19:43.640 in ways that you won't believe you really won't believe. Okay. Stu looks like Buddha judge. The media
00:19:57.220 is saying he's out now. It's funny because we said this from the beginning. It's why we never really,
00:20:03.240 you know, it's hard to move him up to the very top because no one has criticized him, right? Like
00:20:08.500 he's not going to just walk into the nomination. Correct. So someone at some point is going to say
00:20:13.340 something negative. Apparently we've now found what that thing is, which is apparently he doesn't
00:20:17.640 like black people, which is a stunning accusation of to a white person from the Democrats, which is,
00:20:24.080 you know, the only thing that they say about every single person. Uh, so the idea here is that he had,
00:20:29.360 uh, he had an issue and it was one of his only known scandals was that he, uh, fired the only,
00:20:35.700 the first black police chief in South bend, uh, and had been accused by some of the community of,
00:20:41.620 of being racist. The cops, um, the makeup of the police had become too white. Uh, and so there was
00:20:48.640 a shooting over the weekend. I love this story too, cause it's all focused on Pete Buddha judge.
00:20:52.040 And again, I don't want people judge to be president. I do not. He'd think he would be a bad
00:20:56.400 president. Uh, but the idea is they're like, well, there was a shooting and he's just not
00:21:01.140 sensitive to it. And, and then about 10 minutes into every piece of coverage on this, you hear
00:21:07.660 the fact that the, the, the, the officer who shot the black man, which is the new scandal
00:21:12.680 was carrying a knife and going after the police officer. And it's like, at some point, bring a gun
00:21:20.480 to a knife fight. At some point, do you get any responsibility for what happens? No. If
00:21:27.020 you take a knife at a police officer, I mean, is there anyone in America who thinks that's
00:21:32.640 going to turn out well? Is there a good outcome? Is there anyone who thinks it should turn out
00:21:37.740 well? It shouldn't. I mean, look, I mean, not, not necessarily obviously that there's not a
00:21:41.680 death in the situation. Obviously you do what you can and right. We don't know. We don't know
00:21:45.520 but you would expect a gun to be fired. Yeah, probably. I mean, uh, you know, or I would
00:21:52.520 fire, I'm a cop. So I'm just coming at me with a gun or with a knife. Yeah. What's your
00:21:57.520 responsibility? Put your arms up and let them just stick the knife in your stomach a few
00:22:01.460 times. I don't know what, what the person's supposed to do. Don't charge at cops with
00:22:06.020 knives. Yeah. They're, uh, they're done with him now. They're done with him. It looks like
00:22:10.140 they're done with him. You're listening to Glenn Beck. It's amazing. Uh, let me tell
00:22:16.120 you about X chair. I'm here. I'm back in the most comfortable chair. You don't have
00:22:22.860 an X chair at the ranch? Uh-uh. Well, I didn't have ever planned on, on doing a broadcast there
00:22:27.540 until this last couple of weeks. Um, but I have to get an X chair there. Did we, did
00:22:31.920 we send an X chair yet to Steven Crowder? I don't know the answer. Would you write that
00:22:35.820 down how to send him an X chair? Um, they are the most comfortable chairs ever X chair.

00:23:47.940 This is the Glenn Beck program. Pat Gray joins us. Hello, Pat. Hello, Glenn. You have a, um,
00:23:53.500 you have a list of three things that, uh, well, Democrats are very upset about. Yes,
00:23:58.520 because their policy turnarounds by, uh, president Trump. Oh, really? Yeah. And so he's receiving
00:24:04.320 some pretty heavy criticism because, you know, he, he was going to, um, to, to attach tariffs
00:24:12.840 on Mexican products and he didn't because they complied with what he wanted them to do.
00:24:18.640 Uh, then he was going to attack Iran and pulled out of that at the last minute, um, because he
00:24:26.260 had heard that 150 people were going to be killed in that attack and he thought it disproportionate.
00:24:30.980 Uh, then he announced that ice was going to begin deportations this week and he delayed that.
00:24:39.400 And this is causing, uh, America to just be a laughingstock now. And it's, it's even,
00:24:47.260 is it, is it like a red line in the sand? It is. Yeah. A little bit like that. And it's, uh,
00:24:53.540 it's a national security issue in fact, because, uh, we, people just don't know where we stand on
00:25:00.120 anything. We know exactly where he stands. I know exactly where he stands. Mexico tariffs.
00:25:06.640 It worked. Cooperate or I'll give tariffs. They cooperate. No tariffs. The next one.
00:25:14.100 Iran. Iran. The attack. Uh, we're going to put a stop to this. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait
00:25:21.320 a minute. Wait a minute. 150 people. That's may not be worth an even exchange for $130 million machine
00:25:30.860 that you would think that, that liberals would love love because that shows compassion. That's,
00:25:38.080 that's, that is honestly the best message I have heard a president send on, on any kind of military
00:25:47.260 action. You know, it's either weak or it's too strong. This guy is like, look, we could pound you
00:25:54.980 in the sand, but not a single life was lost on our side. And so I don't want to do anything that's
00:26:00.780 going to cause you to lose life. Cause I don't think that's fair. And I, I think that's what,
00:26:05.640 what do they call it? Uh, even response when they say it's proportionate proportionate response.
00:26:10.860 That's what they're always at. This is way out of proportion. And that's what they would have been
00:26:15.060 saying. Yes. Had we done it? Yes. I actually like this, uh, this, uh, call from the president.
00:26:21.480 And I have to tell you something, I am sick and tired of the press wanting it both ways.
00:26:26.680 They were the day before this guy is reckless. He just wants war. He's just rushing into everything.
00:26:34.620 That's what they were saying up until he, he changes his mind. Then it's, he's reckless because
00:26:41.120 nobody knows how to view him. Uh, you know, he's, he drew a red line in the sand. And now what do our
00:26:49.200 allies think now? What does Iran think? Because they know they can cross that red line and not
00:26:54.580 get any punishment. Oh my gosh. I can't take it. I can't take it. There's no way he can win. No,
00:26:59.720 there's no way. And what was the third one? The third one was, was the ice deportations this week.
00:27:04.360 Since when are they for deportation? Since when do they want ice to follow through with deportation?
00:27:10.360 Plus the, the other thing that we found out is the acting director of ice said that because of the,
00:27:16.580 of the leak that they were going to start the deportations, uh, the ice agents would have
00:27:21.760 been in danger this week. And they went to Trump and told him that, and he didn't want to put the
00:27:27.400 ice agents in danger. And the ice, the acting director of ice says, that's why he delayed the,
00:27:34.920 uh, the deportation move. Because they knew essentially people knew it was coming.
00:27:38.580 Yeah. They knew it was coming. There are some, some of them are not maybe people who are just
00:27:43.420 here for a better life. Some of them are criminals. Uh, so warning them that this is about to happen,
00:27:48.720 probably not the best. Could have been dangerous for them. Right. Yeah. So he delayed it. I mean,
00:27:52.280 even if, if you don't necessarily follow the exact, uh, you know, storyline of the Trump
00:27:57.400 administration, right. Where you're saying, you know, like where these things, you know, he makes
00:28:00.440 these big threats and they always work out at the very least you, you have the, the media knows this
00:28:05.220 dance, right? Trump comes out and he makes a broad, a bold statement about some policy. And then he,
00:28:11.260 he, he used, he's using it obviously as a negotiation tactic. And you, they all know
00:28:17.700 this. Like they act, they take whatever is the worst interpretation of whatever he says
00:28:23.500 and apply it to that moment. So like, okay, it's deportations. Well, he's the worst person
00:28:27.620 in the world. He can't, uh, he, he wants to get rid of all Hispanics. Oh my gosh, this guy's
00:28:32.900 basically Hitler. And then he says, all right, I'm not going to do it. And then it's like, well,
00:28:36.160 this guy can't make his mind up. What is wrong with him? I mean, I thought we needed these
00:28:41.140 deportations. It's, it's, they're almost to the level where they're going to start arguing
00:28:45.140 for the deportations. I love the, I love the, the access to where they absolutely are convinced
00:28:51.700 that he's Adolf Hitler with concentration camps and he's Adolf Hitler. Look how much he hates
00:28:57.700 immigrants. And yet he's the one going, it's the lowest unemployment rate for Hispanics in
00:29:04.320 the history of America. And I, and I remember Adolf Hitler saying, and it's the lowest unemployment
00:29:10.940 rate for Jews. Yeah. I mean, he didn't say, no, that wasn't his priority. Look at what's happening.
00:29:18.140 And they just dismiss all of that. It's, it's, it's honestly, it's like fighting with a five-year-old
00:29:24.820 where the five-year-old you're, you, you see there, you see what the five-year-old's excuse is
00:29:30.880 going to be. You see exactly what they're going to say long before, cause you were five once
00:29:35.940 and, and they keep making this excuse and then keep changing their reasons for why it's, it's
00:29:43.080 eventually like you're five. Okay. I'm not even arguing with you anymore. That's where the
00:29:48.280 president just needs to be. I'm just, I'm not even arguing with any you anymore. Cause I think
00:29:53.500 he's there. It's kind of funny. I think, I think he's kind of there and, and he, he doesn't really,
00:29:59.520 and he shouldn't care what the Democrats, because he's never going to please the Democrats. This,
00:30:03.500 this was a game that George W. Bush kind of got caught up in. He, he, he started to try to please
00:30:09.500 the other side of the equation too. No, no, no, wait, hang on just a second. It's not that you try
00:30:14.340 to please. It's that you try to appeal to the reasonable people on the left, but the people
00:30:22.640 not on the left, but in the democratic party, because I tried to do this just, I'm not trying
00:30:28.140 to, I'm not going to appease. I'm not going to change, but I, I will try to appeal to the
00:30:34.520 reasonable people out there, but the reasonable people never stand up. No, they just never stand
00:30:40.340 up. Yeah. So it does no good. It does no good appeal to does no good. It didn't do any good
00:30:45.460 for Bush. They hated his guts even more when he tried to appeal to him. And the same is true for
00:30:50.500 Trump. He, you can't win that war. Oh, the, the, the idea that he is the most anti-gay president
00:30:55.600 ever. I I'm so sick of this. He's the only pro gay marriage president to ever be elected
00:31:03.460 because every other president, every other president was against it when they were first
00:31:09.440 elected. And he wasn't like, because I've run it. I better say this. No, no, it was years
00:31:14.480 ago, years ago, years. He's always been gay friendly. I don't know what you people are
00:31:19.120 talking about. I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah. I mean, obviously the, you know,
00:31:24.420 he's not Elizabeth. Is it Elizabeth Warren that now has come out with this? Yes. Reparations
00:31:28.560 for gay people because they didn't get their gay marriage ruling fast enough. That's a fascinating
00:31:32.900 one. Uh, but like, you know, this is, there's another story that's been going around. Do we buy
00:31:35.580 everybody toasters? Is that what we, I don't know. You're like a wedding presents. Wedding
00:31:39.340 presents. Yeah. It's interesting because they didn't get tax breaks all this time. She's
00:31:44.440 saying that they should get now the tax breaks from marriage, which has never been something
00:31:48.760 the Democrats have ever liked anyway, but apparently, uh, now they do because it applies. I don't
00:31:53.960 even know. I can't even understand. This is why I, I am against tax breaks for marriage
00:31:58.240 entirely. Oh yeah. Stop the government. Shouldn't be in it. Shouldn't be in it at all. Um,
00:32:02.620 so there's this viral video that went around the left this weekend about how, uh, the Trump
00:32:08.360 administration is trying to prevent and arguing in court that, uh, that detained immigrants
00:32:14.620 should not get soap or toothpaste because that's not the government's role. And of course, this
00:32:20.380 is, this is, this is a concentration camp. I mean, even, even in concentration camps, we
00:32:24.160 give soap and toothpaste and there's people like coming out and saying, I was detained by Syrians
00:32:28.640 and they gave me toothpaste. This is unbelievable. Well, what they don't include in the context
00:32:33.700 of this, this video is of course that the Trump administration, the government lawyer now in the
00:32:38.660 Trump administration is arguing a case that was brought up in 2015. It's an Obama administration
00:32:44.720 case that has just continued into the Trump administration. And the government's position
00:32:49.440 is not that they should not give soap or toothpaste. It's that it's not a specific violation of the
00:32:57.080 Flores agreement. We've talked about that before over the years, which is one of the things that
00:33:00.320 set up this idea. So they are trying to talk about a very specific legal thing. It gets tossed out
00:33:06.080 there as if it's this Trump violation, but the violation actually occurred during Obama doesn't
00:33:10.840 stop every one of your dumb friends from sharing it though with, you know, with the context of the
00:33:15.520 left that has no idea that this was an Obama problem. This is not a Trump problem. The Trump
00:33:21.100 argument is coming as a continuation of a case that started during the Obama era, but it just
00:33:26.720 doesn't matter. And I don't know, like we used to, you kind of come up with this, well, maybe we'll
00:33:32.040 come up with a logical reason and these people will understand that they're being misled, that
00:33:36.980 they'll see the truth, that they'll see the facts and that it just seems hopeless. I mean, they just
00:33:41.900 don't care about it. They care about signaling whatever's inside that makes them feel like
00:33:47.080 they're superior to your Neanderthal grandpa. Who's that, you know, horrible white conservative that
00:33:53.480 we all have such distaste for. And they have this like, that is the motivation. The motivation is
00:33:58.680 never the truth. The motivation isn't for these immigrant families. It's the last thing in the
00:34:02.720 world they cared about as evidence that this thing happened during the Obama administration and none
00:34:06.720 of them even know it. Like, how could you have clearer evidence that they don't care about these
00:34:12.640 immigrant families? They don't care. It's just a little piece of the puzzle to allow them to show
00:34:19.420 their friends that they're better than everybody in, let's say, this audience. And that's the goal.
00:34:25.820 The goal is not the truth. The goal is not to help a family. The goal is not to protect a woman's
00:34:29.760 right. None of these things have anything to do with the reasoning behind it, which is just
00:34:34.300 signaling their virtue to everyone else.
00:34:37.120 And that's what's going to, that eventually just comes undone. That just eventually comes undone.
00:34:41.640 I have something I got from the New York Times, the Daily. They sent a reporter over to Germany
00:34:50.980 because they're now in Germany looking for direct democracy. And that just goes to mob rule. That's
00:35:00.640 just majority rules. And do they not understand that? Do they not know that? We went over to Germany to
00:35:09.620 talk to some of these radicals that are trying to get majority rules. Oh, you will not believe this.
00:35:17.720 I'm listening to it and I'm thinking, these people are so stupid or so dishonest. I'm not sure which
00:35:24.920 one it is. Is there a combination of the two that could be at play here? Could be, could be just so
00:35:30.060 stupid that they don't see. And, and, and, and at one point the guys are like the New York Times
00:35:35.540 reporters saying, well, uh, what about, uh, the death penalty that this is very controversial in,
00:35:41.240 uh, Germany death penalty. Uh, if you're against it, apparently because of Hitler, nobody's for the
00:35:47.620 death penalty over there. So they took the most crazy thing that everyone is for. Okay. No death
00:35:54.180 penalty and said, what happens if people just voted for, uh, uh, the death penalty? And the guy from the
00:36:01.140 group that wants, you know, direct democracy said, well, that's ridiculous. We'd never do that.
00:36:07.400 And then the New York times is like, well, how do you know that they wouldn't do that? I mean,
00:36:12.640 are you, you're saying that you understand your group so much that they will never go that way.
00:36:18.920 Cause remember, once you have majority rule, the majority could rule on anything and you can't,
00:36:25.940 you can't, uh, necessarily stop it. Then you won't be. Hello. Hello. Isn't that what you're doing
00:36:34.620 here in America? Yeah. But our side wouldn't be crazy. Oh, okay. It's really nuts. It's nuts.
00:36:44.660 Thanks Pat.

00:38:11.480 in Pennsylvania. Hello, Kathy. Welcome. Hi, Glenn. Hi, Stu. How are you guys doing? Good. How are you?
00:38:17.320 Good. Hey, you guys are having this 12 score and three years ago. And that's beautiful. Can I ask
00:38:24.240 you, since you have all the information in front of you now and you're doing the tours, tape the tours,
00:38:30.000 put it in the computer, have the computer type it out and make a book out of it so that people who
00:38:35.440 can't be there and are really, really interested in this can have it on hand? Well, I tell you what,
00:38:41.640 David Barton just called me this weekend and said, Glenn, this is, he said, I have been working all
00:38:46.360 weekend on it. He said, I think this is the most important museum we've done. He said, I think we
00:38:50.820 should make a videotape and make it available for people who can't come. And so I think we're going
00:38:56.000 to do that. I think we're going to be making a video and we're also going to do a couple of shows
00:39:00.020 this, is it this week or next week on television? So if you're a Blaze subscriber, you'll also get
00:39:05.460 some behind the scenes and some, some pieces of it. So we are working in that direction, Kathy.
00:39:10.280 Thank you so much. Sorry you can't be here. And one other thing, a lot of people don't have
00:39:15.080 computers. I'm one of them and I don't like them. Is it possible to get more of your show from Blaze
00:39:21.540 TV computer onto the, you know, TV with cable network? No. Cable is, no, not a, not a chance
00:39:33.000 on the cable network. Sorry about that. But that's just not the direction that the cable networks are
00:39:38.780 going in our direction. So sorry about that, Kathy. Thank you so much for your phone call.
00:39:44.100 I mean, it's done a lot of, we do have, of course, carriage on still many, many
00:39:47.820 cable companies and satellites as well. So check your local listings for that.
00:39:52.600 If you want, if you want to get it, but she's asking for more, maybe more cable coverage or
00:39:57.980 more stuff on the cable. Yeah. It's weird. We do, we do what we can. Yeah, we do. It's very
00:40:03.360 difficult. Very complicated. You wouldn't believe how stupidly complex everybody tries to make
00:40:08.420 stuff. But they do, but they do. All right. Stand by. Hour number two coming up.

00:41:21.360 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. Wow. Bitcoin is up to 11,000 again. And this time
00:41:30.780 it is not moving because the average person on the street is doing it. It's moving now because
00:41:38.260 the big investors, something that Tika Tiwari talked about and said that it was going to happen
00:41:43.660 months and months and months ago. He's just wrong on the timing, but right in the direction.
00:41:48.940 Now it's at 11,000. And that's because Goldman Sachs and others are now in the Bitcoin business.
00:41:54.760 So now the industrial investors are in. More on that. Also, Biden comparing Trump's election
00:42:04.320 to the assassination of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy. I don't think that's over the
00:42:10.820 top on the surface. Do you? This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:42:14.760 All right. Why is why is Bitcoin going up? Bitcoin's going up because investors are going
00:42:23.220 into it right now. Why is gold going up? Gold is going up because the world is becoming more and
00:42:29.740 more crazy. Have you seen the movement that gold has made recently? You want gold to be really,
00:42:37.600 really stable. You don't want big swings because big swings. If it's got a big swing up,
00:42:42.360 big swings mean things are becoming more crazy. Gold ever gets to $3,000 an ounce. I mean,
00:42:49.100 I don't know if we're going to be talking to each other every day at that point. That world,
00:42:52.320 that means the world's gone nuts. Gold is going up. The world is going nuts more and more so every day.
00:42:59.600 That's why gold is going up. I want you to find out if gold or silver is right for you.
00:43:04.380 They've been in business for 50 years, but their technology is absolutely today's. They now have the
00:43:11.560 largest North American physical precious metals merchant. They are now the largest physical

00:44:22.500 Before I get to Biden, Stu, quickly, your thoughts on $11,000 in Bitcoin.
00:44:39.760 It's pretty interesting. I don't remember tulips after they crashed coming back to, what, more than
00:44:45.760 half of their value. You know, like people always like, well, it was at $19,000 and everyone lost
00:44:50.200 their money. It was at $19,000 for one day. Literally one day. It was above $18,000 for literally
00:44:56.480 three days. I mean, it was above $17,000 for literally five days. There were a couple days
00:45:03.440 that if you bought it, the absolute worst time, you got hit pretty hard. However, now, I mean,
00:45:08.720 there's only, it only spent 51 days over $11,000 in the entire quote-unquote bubble. So, you know,
00:45:16.620 we're talking, you go back to just over a month. Well, yeah, basically not even, yeah, not even
00:45:20.860 two, not even two months. So unless you bought at the absolute peak of the bubble, you are
00:45:26.480 up on Bitcoin. That is not something you could say about tulips. It was not something you could
00:45:30.640 say about a lot of this stuff. I mean, you know, yes, it did crash and hopefully it didn't
00:45:35.000 sell then. You know, some people did. And, you know, we cautioned against that. Who knows what's
00:45:40.280 going to happen in the future. But I mean, you're talking about something that was at the
00:45:45.120 beginning of 2017 was under $1,000. You know, go find the stocks out there that you could
00:45:53.280 have made 11 times your money in that period. And even if you bought, I mean, we're talking
00:45:58.060 about October 2017, you're still up dramatically. You know, I mean, remember it peaked in December
00:46:07.000 2017. Okay. That was when you had the one day at 19,000. Everybody talks about as if people
00:46:12.180 only purchased on that day and they got killed. But if you go back to October 2017, it started
00:46:18.880 the month at $4,000. Now, so you base almost tripled your money. If you bought two months
00:46:26.540 before the absolute peak, even if you bought in November 2017, let's say mid-November, you're
00:46:33.620 at $7,000. So you're still up 50%.
00:46:36.180 I mean, I'm actually really glad that this, this happened because you remember at the peak
00:46:43.040 for that 30 day period, people were mortgaging their houses to buy Bitcoin that that's when
00:46:50.980 you knew this is crazy. This is, this is going to end when it becomes a fervor. It's not going
00:46:58.920 to last that like that. And then people get burned and usually it crashes and then goes away.
00:47:03.760 I don't know anything that had such a spectacular crash as Bitcoin and now is up to 11,000 from
00:47:13.820 4,000 to, from 19 to four to back to 11. And this one has gone unnoticed. This one is not related.
00:47:21.880 No, this is not the people who are, you know, writing, are you in Bitcoin? You got to get in
00:47:26.700 Bitcoin. This is crazy. These are, this is exactly what we said would happen. The in, in,
00:47:32.900 in institutional, uh, money would drive the price down. They would say, Oh no, we don't believe in
00:47:40.280 it. And it would, they would do everything they could to knock it back down until they could get
00:47:46.980 in. Now they've built all of their, all of their desks. They all have trading in it now. And now the
00:47:54.140 institutional investors can make money. So now Goldman Sachs, et cetera, et cetera, JP Morgan Chase,
00:48:01.040 now they can make money on Bitcoin. And that's where this is coming from. This is from institutional
00:48:07.200 investors. They don't move quickly like that. They didn't, they didn't, they're not driven by hype.
00:48:15.520 They're driven by long-term stability. And now that they're all going into it, they all suddenly
00:48:21.560 believe in, in cryptocurrency and in particular Bitcoin. So now is the time that you're going to
00:48:27.920 start to see solid moves on Bitcoin. And who knows? I, I honestly, you know, you never know what
00:48:33.880 the stuff it is very speculative. Um, but, uh, you know, part of the reason why, you know, Facebook is
00:48:39.480 obviously at some level embracing cryptocurrency. And that's been a big reason why it's been driving in
00:48:43.940 the news. Yeah. Uh, I'm reading a Ben Mesrick's new book, which is great. And it's about essentially
00:48:49.940 the, the Winklevoss twins. Remember them? They, they were, you know, one of the people who basically
00:48:54.900 started Facebook. Let's be honest about it. I mean, like, I, I mean, you know, Zuckerberg came in later
00:49:00.100 to help with programming, basically stole the whole thing and launched it without their knowledge while
00:49:04.440 he was employed by the twins. Right. And, and it's like, and then by the way, later on text messages and,
00:49:10.920 and, and instant messages come out that basically prove the case that he was absolutely screwing
00:49:15.240 them behind the scenes. So he takes control of the company. He makes all of this money and billions
00:49:20.000 and billions of dollars. They get, I think it was $65 million settlement off of this, which,
00:49:24.720 you know, again, you don't feel too bad for them in that case, but this was basically their idea and
00:49:29.060 they were paying him to build it. And Zuckerberg wound up taking the whole thing. So they get portrayed
00:49:34.700 as like these two sort of doofy twins, right? Like, you know, they're blue bloods. Who cares about
00:49:40.460 them? Well, not only did they basically create Facebook first, when they got their settlement
00:49:45.980 against everybody's advice, they kept most of it in Facebook stock. They didn't take cash. They
00:49:52.160 take it in stock, which they turn that 65 million into like 500 million. Okay. Then they went out and
00:49:59.020 tried to do all these tech investments and they were blocked. No one in, in, in, you know,
00:50:06.720 Silicon Valley wanted to do business with them because they knew, well, their goal was to get
00:50:11.440 bought by Facebook. So they can't do business with the Winklevoss twins because, you know,
00:50:15.760 Zuckerberg would never have it. So they come back to New York, wind up just getting in and figuring
00:50:20.520 out that they wanted to get into Bitcoin. They start acquiring Bitcoin at $7 a coin. Seven is now worth
00:50:29.040 $11,000 a coin. They actually put in, uh, they believe they had the largest stake of anyone in
00:50:38.060 the entire market, about 1% of all Bitcoin. Oh my gosh. Okay. Oh my gosh. Uh, and they,
00:50:45.020 I mean, are pouring money into it as it's going up from seven to 10 to 30 to $70 a coin and pouring
00:50:52.780 money into it by a Bitcoin company or that, you know, invest heavily in a Bitcoin company that's
00:50:57.360 helping to make these transitions. I mean, at some point, do you get the idea that maybe these
00:51:01.020 guys are just really smart? Like maybe these twins that have been like, sort of like mocked over this
00:51:08.060 long period of time for being these, all these hapless guys that lost Facebook, like morons,
00:51:13.800 like, wait a minute. These guys have basically launched two revolutions. Yeah. But, but, but let me
00:51:20.420 ask you this. See, this is why we don't judge people, uh, you know, uh, on the, uh, you know,
00:51:25.680 on the surface because put yourself back in, let's say 2001, you're in your office and, uh,
00:51:33.720 and your secretary calls in and says, uh, Mr. McGeer, uh, I have a Mr. Zuckerberg and the
00:51:43.800 Winklevoss twins online three. You immediately say, uh, is this a joke? No, they're serious.
00:51:53.460 The Winklevoss twins and Mr. Zuckerberg, very serious. You don't take the call because you
00:51:59.920 just think there's a cloud show, right? You don't take a Zuckerberg or Winklevoss
00:52:05.340 seriously. Yeah. That's not a good way to make your investment decisions. Judging by if you think
00:52:10.140 the last name sounds funny. Right. Yeah. Right. But now they've got a little record. And so
00:52:14.940 a Winklevoss calls, you don't make fun of the name. I got to imagine now people are absolutely
00:52:21.660 happy to take their calls. Yeah. Right. At this point. Yeah. I think I'm happy to take
00:52:26.160 their call. If they ever, Mr. Beck, yes. Winklevoss twins are on the line. I'll take that call.
00:52:31.960 Yes. I'll take that. You're going to buy more Bitcoin. Did you buy more? I have bought, uh,
00:52:39.500 you know, I have a, I have a, you never, you are a spy. You are funding some Canadian terrorist
00:52:46.860 organization that just Canadian terrorists are pretty lackadaisical, right? They like
00:52:51.900 throw, they like throw maple syrup at pancakes, you know, that go into an international house
00:52:57.680 of pancakes. We're against this internationalism of, of the globalist agenda of international
00:53:03.020 house of pancakes. And you throw maple syrup on people's pancakes that, but you're funding it.
00:53:08.360 It's a delicious terrorist. Yes. I will say that. Uh, let me tell you about our, uh, our sponsor
00:53:13.780 is relief factor. Millions of Americans have had their pain changed. Uh, and it has changed the
00:53:19.920 quality of life because of relief factor. And I'm one of those people I've met people, uh, who are in

00:54:20.620 We pause for 10 seconds. Station ID.
00:54:32.260 All right, let me get to, uh, Joe Biden. Uh, here's some, uh, audio of, uh, of Joe Biden,
00:54:40.140 uh, saying that the Donald Trump election night was a little like something else in history. Listen,
00:54:47.180 people get out of jail. The idea we give them 25 bucks and a buck, a bus ticket to go under a bridge.
00:54:52.360 So they, but they don't qualify for public housing. They don't qualify for food. They don't qualify for,
00:54:57.040 for, uh, um, Pell grants. That's crazy. We should be doing the opposite. You know,
00:55:02.120 Rev, you've been calling and I've been calling for a long time. There should be job training
00:55:05.460 in prisons, not training people how to be criminals. There's so much we can do and it's
00:55:10.220 within our capacity to do it. That's the interesting thing. And I think what's happening now is I think
00:55:16.080 that, uh, Donald Trump may have reawakened the sensibilities in this country to say, whoa,
00:55:22.680 maybe we can do this now. Just like our generation was awakened when Dr. King and Bobby Kennedy were
00:55:28.580 assassinated. A lot, whole generation said, I'm back in, man. These millennials, they get it,
00:55:33.200 right? Yeah. And now they want to get in. They get it, man. They get it. These millennials,
00:55:38.840 they get it, man. Wow, man. It's like when our generation, man, woke up, man, you know, man.
00:55:47.040 Yeah. Because I, I really hate the, you know, the argument that you should get in trouble for
00:55:54.620 comparing things. Like they'll always be like, oh, you know, Glenn Beck compares, you know,
00:55:59.760 Nancy Pelosi to Nazis. And like, and you'll be like, okay. And you're like, well, what's,
00:56:04.660 what did he say? And he said, well, I don't think that you should have this policy because,
00:56:09.520 you know, one of the reasons why, I mean, this has happened before, like this is the first step down
00:56:13.260 this road and, and we shouldn't go down the road anywhere near these things. And, you know, like,
00:56:18.020 like you're making an analogy. And of course, when you're making a point, right, one of the things
00:56:22.720 you do is go to the most extreme level of that, right? Like it's to set the precedent that the
00:56:27.500 argument is theoretically possible, right? Like, you know, if you were to say, well, I don't want
00:56:31.820 any government intervention, right? I never want war. Well, what about World War II? That doesn't mean
00:56:36.160 you're comparing whatever conflict you're talking about now to World War II. You're trying to set the
00:56:40.220 precedent that in theory, you might be for war actually, right? And I, so I usually hate that
00:56:45.720 argument here though. He really is just comparing it. He's saying there are certain things in our
00:56:51.400 history that get people started and this should be considered on the same level, right? He's saying
00:56:56.760 people, people are getting assassination. Now think of this, think of this. My, my father told me,
00:57:01.740 I asked him one time, what were the 1960s like dad? And he said, well, they were different because
00:57:08.540 the vast majority of people were still, you know, on a sane side. And so we kind of all stood around
00:57:16.960 watching our television sets going, this is crazy what's happening to our country. Um, he said it
00:57:23.240 wasn't, it wasn't as universal, uh, as it looked now he's giving a Pacific Northwest kind of analogy
00:57:30.140 for him, uh, which didn't have a lot of, a lot of that. Um, but he, he even talked about, he said,
00:57:37.560 when Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King were shot and Malcolm X, he said, we thought the whole world
00:57:43.320 was coming undone. He said, it just felt like everything was coming undone. Now he's just put
00:57:50.760 into the assassination of Martin Luther King, the civil rights icon and Robert Kennedy, another
00:58:03.060 icon, the assassination of those two into the same category as Donald Trump winning an election
00:58:13.500 as saying, that's as shocking. And it shocked the system. Do you really think that it was as
00:58:23.200 shocking as Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy's assassination? And by the way, what did those
00:58:30.660 assassinations do between that and what happened at Candlestick Park? Uh, the left kind of fell apart.
00:58:37.740 The left kind of fell apart. It was kind of the beginning of the end of the radicalized movement
00:58:46.440 because people had had enough. It had enough. So is, are you implying that when you woke up,
00:58:56.300 because what he's saying is people woke up to that and they decided to stand up, be more active,
00:59:01.140 be more active. No, actually normal people stood up and said, yeah, okay, we got to stop this. This
00:59:10.720 is, this is craziness. What's going on. The civil rights act was already moving forward. The civil
00:59:16.660 rights act was done in 1964. So we had already moved that, that barrier. We were moving forward.
00:59:24.360 And the people led the politicians on that as well. Correct. Correct. And it didn't take the
00:59:28.500 assassination of Martin Luther King or Robert Kennedy that happened four years before they
00:59:34.000 started shooting people. I mean, the best version of his point is essentially you get to this idea
00:59:39.540 that things are good racially, right? And things are fine. And then there's an assassination and
00:59:45.920 you're like, wow, people really do hate, you know, minority figures. And then you have another
00:59:51.040 assassination. People really do hate, uh, other people. And then this is kind of what I think he's
00:59:55.720 saying, which is we got lulled into sleep by the wonderful Obama years. And this is coming from
01:00:01.860 Joe Biden. Um, and then we realized that, oh, wow, we haven't passed these race issues. Donald Trump
01:00:07.480 got elected. And so we need to get active again. Of course we had, you know, we, and we pointed this
01:00:13.480 out at the time, the Obama election came at a time where I think we had really had moved past a lot
01:00:23.300 of those things. Not because of Obama's election, because people don't care. People don't care what
01:00:27.260 your stupid skin, your skin color, who cares? Like why, how anyone could make a decision based on
01:00:32.860 that. And anyway, by the way, that includes, um, things like affirmative action and all of these
01:00:38.240 other things, but you don't make, uh, you don't make decisions based on skin color. Thought it was
01:00:43.500 something we all agreed on. And then Obama gets into office and it's the constant focus. He's
01:00:49.620 constantly highlighting racial divides. He spends eight years telling us how much white people hate
01:00:55.520 black people when I, I don't know. I mean, I'm not saying there's no racism. Of course there is,
01:01:00.640 but like generally speaking, I mean, uh, you know, I don't have, I mean, I don't see it and I should
01:01:07.080 see it. I'm in, I'm a conservative in Texas. Shouldn't I see racism all the time? And you know,
01:01:11.760 you talk to, uh, we have David Harris on, on, uh, on, uh, news and white matters today. And he made this
01:01:17.100 point yesterday. It's like, we're not victims here. He's African-American. If you don't know
01:01:20.340 him and he's like, we stop calling us victims, stop making us out to be victims. We don't need
01:01:25.080 reparations from you. We need to be able to do the things that we want to do. We need to be able to
01:01:30.140 live our lives without your involvement in them. If we don't want your involvement in them, we don't
01:01:34.300 need the government getting in our way. And you know, that, that is, I think where the average
01:01:39.280 African-American is right. Like I, we want to be able to do our thing stops, you know, getting in our
01:01:44.920 way. And yet this is constantly highlighted by the media. It is like, as if the only thing
01:01:50.680 that anyone cares about are racial divides to the point that even Joe Biden is on the wrong side of
01:01:56.120 it on the democratic party, that even Pete Buttigieg is on the wrong side of it. You can't even be
01:02:01.260 a liberal white person who says every single one of these arguments is true and, uh, and push for
01:02:10.060 basically reparations. That's not even enough. There's nothing that's enough. And that's the
01:02:16.000 lesson here is like, you can't, these are the, the, the extreme elements of these movements are
01:02:21.220 not able to be reasoned with them. Wow. That monologue was almost, I feel like we just witnessed
01:02:26.600 the crucifixion, the crucifixion of Jesus Christ there. I don't know. That hatred was just crazy.
01:02:33.060 I think you'll see the results of, of that as the storm clouds gather.
01:02:41.960 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
01:02:45.080 Okay. The one thing I found out yesterday, car shield can't cover his, um, tires. Yesterday

01:04:39.300 things. Uh, first of all, uh, Biden has kind of doubled down on the segregationists. Um, he,
01:04:48.300 he says he misses it. Well, here, let me play. Here's Biden. Welcome South Carolina to, uh,
01:04:54.200 hearing from all of us. And we're happy to all to be here. The only thing I miss is my buddy,
01:04:58.300 Fritz Hollings. He was one of my mentors and I'm, I'm sorry. He's not here. Oh my gosh.
01:05:03.400 He believed in segregation. Um, remember Trent Lott, that controversy from years ago where he
01:05:10.680 said, who was it even Strom? It was Strom Thurmond. Yeah. Yeah. He was like Strom Thurmond was
01:05:15.660 147th birthday. Right. It really was. He was in a wheelchair. He couldn't even
01:05:22.320 like that. Yeah. And Trent Lott stood up and said, you know, you know, there's lots of things. He's
01:05:30.740 been a great Senator for a long time and lots of things. If we would have done what he said,
01:05:35.000 you know, maybe the country would have been off and been a lot better. You mean like segregation?
01:05:40.800 You mean the one thing that he said was really bad? Yeah. That thing? Is that what you're saying?
01:05:44.820 No, that's not what I, well that you know, you didn't. And then they threw him out of his
01:05:48.740 leadership position. Now, Trent Lott sucks in a million ways and I'm glad he's out of the Senate,
01:05:53.560 but not like the way that he was. No. Uh, you know, I wanted him to be defeated by somebody better.
01:05:58.760 Um, but the, uh, they threw him out because they made this sort of fake controversy. Does Biden have
01:06:04.120 to deal with that now? I mean, I guess he kind, this is their version of doing it. Kind of sort of
01:06:09.380 learn his lesson. He gets up and he's like, Hey, by the way, remember that racist you guys said,
01:06:14.720 man, I miss him. He was my mentor, but that's going to be okay. Yeah. That's okay.
01:06:20.040 Corey Booker is going to surely point this out though. Corey is trying to make a name for himself.
01:06:23.800 He's been basically invisible throughout the primary. So his, his claim to fame right now is he's the one
01:06:28.700 calling out Biden most loudly, but he's doing it like this. Not really loudly, you know,
01:06:33.880 I just, I most publicly, he's just, I'm so concerned. You know, he's got to learn from
01:06:39.880 things like this and I'm the one to teach him. Yeah. He needs to apologize. And Biden's like,
01:06:45.020 I'm not going to apologize to you for this. I mean, his initial comments were basically,
01:06:49.200 I want to work across the aisle and I'll have to do it with people that I, I think have terrible
01:06:54.140 opinions, which he said, but shouldn't we, shouldn't we do that? Shouldn't we be, aren't,
01:06:59.800 can't we talk to people that we think have bad ideas? Can't we work with them on some things?
01:07:06.320 Right. I mean, that's the way it's supposed to be, right? Uh, it's interesting because he's going
01:07:10.820 to be in the middle of this debate and he's, Biden's going to be asked about this. And I think
01:07:15.000 if I were him, I would say, look, every day we come out here on the campaign trail, all of us,
01:07:19.060 and we say the Republicans are really bad on climate change. They're really bad on race relations.
01:07:24.860 They're really bad on women's rights and gay rights and income inequality and all the things
01:07:28.560 that we say have really damaging, uh, outcomes for the American people. I believe that stuff.
01:07:35.760 Do you not believe it? Because I believe that these things are really bad for America.
01:07:39.940 And yet I'm going to still work with Republicans. I know Corey, you just worked with the Trump
01:07:43.760 administration on criminal justice reform. Do you not believe any of the things that you say
01:07:48.220 about the Trump administration? Cause you say really bad things about him. You accuse them
01:07:51.800 of terrible things. I think you should stop this monologue right now. Cause I don't want him to
01:07:54.900 use this. Cause I think this is a very effective argument. It is, isn't it? Yeah. And it's actually
01:07:59.360 a way for Biden to kind of get to the left of all of these people in the primary, which would benefit
01:08:03.740 him, but also show that he's willing to work across the aisle because I think what it really
01:08:07.740 reveals more than anything else, if you're really thinking about it is that, you know, Democrats are just
01:08:13.580 saying these things about Republicans. They're saying that tax cuts only benefit the rich. They're
01:08:19.600 just saying all of these things and they don't actually mean them. I mean, you know, the climate
01:08:24.340 change thing, I mean, segregation is really bad. Okay. One of the worst things that I can think of
01:08:32.260 racism, awful, right? We all know this. However, if you were going to accuse someone of something
01:08:39.060 terrible, uh, destroying the entire human population for oil company profits is almost
01:08:45.540 worse, isn't it? Right. I think it might be. At the very least, it's on the same level. I think it
01:08:50.400 might be. And if you're going to make that case, you can't then say this, Mr. Corey Booker,
01:08:56.100 uh, about Louis Farrakhan. Listen to this.
01:08:59.320 Would you be willing to have an audience with him concerning that?
01:09:05.160 You know, I, I have met, I live in Newark, so we have famous mosques, 25, we have nation of
01:09:11.620 Islam there as mayor. I met with lots of folks, uh, I've heard minister Farrakhan speeches,
01:09:17.580 uh, for a lot of my life. So I don't feel like I need to do that, but I'm not one of these people
01:09:22.620 that says I wouldn't sit down with anybody here. So wait, so wait, Joe Biden, Joe Biden in 1972,
01:09:29.460 you shouldn't have sat down with any Democrats. You're a Democrat, they're Democrats. You shouldn't
01:09:36.120 sit down with any Democrats that were segregation, segregation minded. Don't, don't do that. No,
01:09:43.040 can't do that. But today, oh, I'm, I'll meet with anybody. I mean, Louis Farrakhan. Wait,
01:09:48.600 what? I mean, how, I mean, look, Corey Booker is not good at this. No, but how transparent is this?
01:09:54.200 I mean, Booker has tried to sell himself as someone who does work across the aisle while
01:09:59.120 accusing Republicans of wanting to literally wipe out every single human being on the planet because
01:10:04.280 of climate change. It's okay to work with someone who's doing that, but it's not okay back in the
01:10:09.580 day to work with someone inside your own party. I'm glad you pointed that out, Glenn, inside your
01:10:13.720 own party. Who's a segregationist? Uh, that is, I mean, these things are so transparently just
01:10:19.320 political arguments to try to win this primary. They can't possibly believe anyone thinks that they
01:10:24.040 actually believe it, but it's treated that way because right now the media wants Biden to do
01:10:28.480 poorly. They don't want this to be the case when he gets, if, if he gets the nomination and he's
01:10:33.980 going against Trump, every one of these little controversies will just go by and they'll excuse
01:10:38.280 all of them. But right now they think, well, we could get Kamala Harris. We could get, uh, we could
01:10:43.160 get Elizabeth Warren. We could get Bernie Sanders. Let's go after Joe Biden and make every one of his
01:10:48.360 comments look like the worst thing possible. I mean, the guy was, and I brought this point up
01:10:53.120 before Barack Obama and every single person who's elected president, uh, or is running for president
01:10:59.660 seriously and wins a nomination gets in effect, a one person presidential election. They are able
01:11:06.860 to select the person they think is most qualified to run the country other than themselves, right?
01:11:13.440 Barack Obama with every human being on earth, uh, that was born in the United States. And at least
01:11:19.480 as a natural born citizen is able to choose from anyone over 35 and selects Joe Biden.
01:11:25.860 So you have to believe that Barack Obama thinks that Joe Biden is not a racist. Would you not?
01:11:34.180 Would you think that Obama believes that Biden is not a racist? Yes. I think he probably does.
01:11:40.000 So what are you accusing Obama of? You're accusing Barack Obama of being a giant racist who hates
01:11:47.420 black people. I mean, I, the, the, the mental gymnastics that the, that, that identity politics
01:11:54.200 forces you into they're incomprehensible. So listen to these gent mental gymnastics. So I'm driving
01:12:00.300 yesterday. Uh, the last two days we were coming, uh, down across the Rocky mountains, which was an
01:12:04.980 incredible experience. Um, I 70, uh, I went up to Idaho across I 70 and it is truly a wonder of the
01:12:14.460 world. It really is. Uh, the engineering, it started in the 1950s. Do you know that they didn't finish
01:12:20.560 that highway through the Rocky mountains until the 1990s, 1990s, it is happening in a construction
01:12:29.620 project out front in front of my house. Yes, I know that. I know that, but it is an engineering
01:12:34.240 masterpiece. I mean, it is, it is a wonder of the world. It really is. Then on the way back, I go
01:12:40.420 through, uh, um, on, I think it's I or not I, I think it's a highway 50, uh, over the Monarch pass.
01:12:48.980 And it's another incredible, incredible thing, but we're listening to music and my daughter gets a
01:12:54.940 day to pick all of the music. Okay. So we're listening to all these musicals and we're listening to
01:12:58.820 Shrek, the musical. Have you ever listened to that? No. Okay. There's a, there's, there's one
01:13:04.720 song on there called freak flag. Okay. Now listen to this because this was written for a show in the
01:13:13.540 nineties, 1999, maybe. Okay. Now listen to this and tell me if this is even politically correct.
01:13:20.100 Now, if this song shouldn't be protested. Okay. And by the way, nobody of course that did this or is
01:13:27.480 currently doing this sees any irony at all. Okay. Listen to this, listen up puppet. We spent our
01:13:33.920 whole lives wishing and we're not wishing. We weren't so freaking strange. They make us feel
01:13:39.320 the pain, but it's they who need to change the way they think that is. It's time to stop the hiding.
01:13:45.800 It's time to stand up tall saying, Hey world, I'm different. I'm here. Splinters and all let your freak
01:13:53.140 flag wave. My what? Let your freak flag wave. Uh, that's what I'm talking about. Never take it down.
01:13:59.440 Never take it down. Raise it up high. Let your freak flag fly. Let it fly, fly, fly. Okay. Now who are the
01:14:06.860 strange ones now? Who are the ones that are being called strange every step of the way?
01:14:14.400 Conservatives, religious people, people who voted for Trump. Uh, just want you to know Broadway would
01:14:20.540 like you to fly your fleet freak flag, Trump supporters. So fly it, fly, fly, fly. Let it
01:14:26.780 fly. Let it, let it hoist it up high. Let it fly. The right kind of freak flag. Right. I know. Um,
01:14:33.900 Humpty Dumpty then says, you ready? It's hard not to be a puppet. So many strings attached. Humpty
01:14:40.340 Dumpty says, but it's not the choice you make. It's just how you were hatched. Oh no, no, no, no. Hold
01:14:50.400 on just a second here. Humpty Dumpty. Hold on. You're saying that it's not the choice you
01:14:57.600 make. It's how you were hatched. Huh? See, I don't think so. Humpty. And I don't think all
01:15:08.160 the king's men and all the king's horses can put you back together again after something
01:15:12.520 that hateful. You're saying that it's how you were born, not a choice. I thought that was the
01:15:20.480 way you were, that was, isn't that what Lady Gaga told us was the right thing? Well, Lady Gaga,
01:15:26.240 if that's true. She said born this way, right? I mean, that's the whole argument. It's supposed
01:15:30.140 to be about how you're born. Yeah. Well, it's not how you're born. It's not how you're born. You
01:15:33.740 can make a choice. Don't. Oh, cause I, cause that was, that was on the gay issue. Yes. Was born this
01:15:39.480 way. But the transgender issue is the. Correct. Well, I think. And with gay, you can choose,
01:15:46.440 you can choose anything you want. It's not born anymore. It's not born anymore. It's not born
01:15:50.080 anymore. Cause I mean, you know what's really outdated too in this context is the, is the term
01:15:54.360 sexual preference. Like there used to be a time in which you said, I prefer women and that's okay.
01:16:02.540 And you prefer men and that's okay. That's no longer the case either. It's not about a
01:16:07.160 preference. Yes. It's about something completely different. Now you can't say that because then
01:16:12.780 you're saying, well, you, there was an article that came out the other day that said, if you
01:16:15.640 are not attracted and would not date a transgendered person, you're hateful, you're hateful, you're
01:16:20.340 hateful because if you just think, yeah, it's not my thing. No, thanks. That means you're a
01:16:24.440 hater. Yeah. That you, uh, you despise. You have to be initiated. It's, um, I think we've
01:16:29.680 talked about this before. You must participate. You must participate. If you don't participate,
01:16:37.160 well, then you have to be stopped. Uh, but the song goes on. Yes, it all makes sense.
01:16:42.180 We may be freaks, but we were freaks with teeth, claws, and magic wands. And together we
01:16:48.560 can stand up to far quad, never take it down, raise it up high. We've got magic. We've got
01:16:53.560 power. Who are they to say we're wrong? All the things that make us special, all the things
01:16:59.740 that make us strong. What makes us special? What makes us special? Makes us strong. Let
01:17:05.540 your freak flag wave, never take it down, raise it up high. Let your freak flag fly, fly, fly.
01:17:13.520 So if you are deemed in the society of freak, Broadway would like you to know that what makes
01:17:21.960 you strong is your freakiness, that you are different than everyone else, that the majority
01:17:29.360 doesn't rule. Now they don't live by that. Uh, and they're trying to actually change the constitution.
01:17:36.080 So majority does rule, but their songs before they are banned, uh, I'm sure. Cause that is a
01:17:43.280 hateful, hateful song. Now, uh, is in encouraging you no matter what it is that makes you different
01:17:50.280 to stand together because that's what makes you strong.
01:18:00.200 American financing. You have a dream of buying a home, raising a family.
01:18:04.520 People said the American dream was over. Well, that's not the American dream, but that is a nice
01:18:10.940 dream to have. It looked like the American dream. Uh, if that was your definition of it was over in
01:18:16.780 2008, but fast forward now, remarkable how we have already come full circle. Federal reserve has kept
01:18:23.700 interest rates so low that most Americans can't afford to buy their own home. Now the sharks that
01:18:29.840 help create the mess in 08 are also back with a vengeance, zero down payments, programs, grants,
01:18:36.160 all kinds of way to buy a home right now. You need an advocate that can look at you and look at your
01:18:42.300 whole history and what you want to do and find the right loan for you. American, American financing is
01:18:49.980 the only company for mortgages that I have ever endorsed. I don't, uh, I don't like mortgage companies
01:18:57.120 because they usually work for the bank. They don't work for the bank to sell you alone. They work for
01:19:02.780 you to make sure that they find the right loan that will serve your interest and your goals.
01:19:08.040 Might be a great time to buy a new house. Might be a great time to refinance. Find out for sure by
01:19:12.820 getting free mortgage reviews right now. Only will take you 10 minutes. Just go to American financing.net
01:19:19.020 right now, American financing.net or call them at 800-906-2440. 800-906-2440. It's American

01:19:37.100 Looks like we have a good ruling that could possibly mean really good things for, um, uh, the Redskins.

01:19:47.500 looking forward to see what they have to say about the census. And we'll get to that as soon as it

01:22:10.820 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. There are so many problems in our world today.
01:22:19.540 We're at each other's throats. We're, we're being told you can't do it. Uh, we're being called
01:22:26.260 racists and all kinds of names. Is there a solution? Yeah, it's actually pretty simple and
01:22:32.860 it's coming from a surprising source. I think whether he knows it or not, and we'll talk to him
01:22:39.040 next. This is the Glenn Beck program in 60 seconds. But first, let me tell you, uh, uh, about the

01:24:33.220 that sounds so much better. Doesn't it? Doesn't it? You could throw worldwide. Yeah. Worldwide.

01:24:43.020 It's good to see you. Good to see you. Thanks for having me. You've been working hard getting

01:24:53.000 I, I called you what four weeks ago. Yes. Yeah. You released a couple of songs. I used to be
01:24:59.300 a program director of music stations. Uh, and, um, I, I was fairly good at picking, uh, hits. Uh,
01:25:08.620 I don't know if I could do that anymore, but I heard a song on this, uh, CD when you only replaced,
01:25:15.200 you know, the only released a couple, uh, I think it's called kiss that girl. Goodbye. Yeah.
01:25:20.440 Yeah. I think it is a smash. Thank you. If people will play it on radio, if they'll play it, it's a
01:25:27.380 smash. Thank you. Can we play just a little bit of, uh, kiss, kiss that girl. Goodbye.
01:25:42.820 Well, it's pretty much understood. Rainy days are just no good for leaving. No need mixing misery
01:25:49.620 and jam. So it goes for icy days, heartache and slick highways. No time to wait. You're gonna
01:25:56.560 break if you bend and bend again, but ain't a fresh new start. We'll warm your heart like the sun
01:26:03.920 breaking through a cloudy sky. If ever was a good day, it's today that born kiss that girl. Goodbye.
01:26:12.440 Just like a red-eyed flight. Two taillights in the night. Go spread the wings and fly. That born kiss
01:26:19.040 that girl. Goodbye. Just like a westbound train. You're drinking cheap champagne. Got no more tears
01:26:25.740 to cry. You're long gone like a whisper in the wind. That boy can kiss that girl. Goodbye.
01:26:32.780 That is, that is, that is the hook of the year. Thank you. I mean, that is amazing. Great. You know,
01:26:39.380 my, my daughter, she's nine. And when she was listening to the album, I said, girl, what do you think the
01:26:44.100 first single should be? And she was like, um, kiss that girl goodbye. So she was, and that girl.
01:26:51.960 She's right. Oh, she's absolutely right. You'll sing that all day. I heard that the first time I,
01:26:58.160 my wife and I were in the car driving and we must've played it six times in a row. I love it. I love it.
01:27:02.440 It was just great. You know, it, I've had, I had so much fun making this album. I really feel like
01:27:07.820 as a songwriter, I'm catching my stride. I think so too. And I poured my heart into all 20 of these
01:27:13.740 songs. Some of them are lighthearted like that one right there. That's lighthearted. It's fun.
01:27:18.780 There's may I just say, first of all, you're the first person to put 20 songs on a CD all penned by
01:27:25.820 you since Alan Jackson. Yeah. Okay. So nobody does this. This is, I'm a fan of yours. I listened to
01:27:34.520 your albums. I know you've, you've been around forever, so I don't know necessarily all your
01:27:39.100 old stuff, but I know your last four. Yeah. This is different somehow. Yeah. This one's different.
01:27:45.580 And I think better. I think it's your best one. Thank you. Um, but I noticed that there is,
01:27:50.940 there's two, there's two sides to this. Yeah. Uh, one is, uh, one is just fun, just fun,
01:27:58.940 lots of fun stuff. And others are really deeply feel personal and heartfelt, even a different sound
01:28:08.400 in, in some ways. Am I right on that? You're right. You're right. What happened? I think
01:28:14.440 as I've gotten older, I'm, I'm more confident letting people know that I don't have it all
01:28:21.780 together. And, um, can we go to a song? Cause you just said that, let me see. It is trying like
01:28:29.440 the devil. Yeah. Let me just, let me just play a little bit of this and I want you to listen to
01:28:35.080 the lyrics because I think it's, I don't know what you were thinking, but it's an interesting set of
01:28:42.400 lyrics. Well, that golden halo doesn't go so well with my red bandana and blue jeans.
01:28:53.800 God knows when I'm good, I'm good. And when I'm good is seldom. So it seems.
01:29:01.640 So they say, folks play with fire. I'm trying my best to not get burned.
01:29:07.460 While I soak myself in gasoline, one would think by now I might have learned, but I've never
01:29:17.220 learned. No, I'm not the man they think I am. It weighs heavy on my heart and mind.
01:29:26.920 Yes, I stumble every step along the way. Like a whino who came off the line.
01:29:32.760 It's like Todd go walking on a windy day. There's heaven and a rising hell to pay.
01:29:44.280 And I'm solid as rock and sink and sand, trying like a devil to be a good man.
01:29:49.620 So what were you thinking when you're writing this? Why did you?
01:29:54.540 This is a, you know, the next verse goes,
01:29:57.540 And I think everybody, my wife, she's amazing. She's the closest thing to perfect that I know.
01:30:19.060 She never gets mad. I've never heard her say one harsh word.
01:30:24.520 You've never loaded the dishwasher then? Well, because I've, every time I load the dishwasher,
01:30:29.860 I get a harsh word. That's not the way you don't put this on the bottom and you don't put this on
01:30:35.140 the top. Yes. That. Okay. All right. Okay. All right. Okay. I thought that was just assumed with
01:30:39.900 every man. All right. Good. I thought so too, but I thought maybe she was the freak in the,
01:30:43.960 Yeah. Yeah. The unicorn. The unicorn. Right. Um, I wanted to write a song. I don't know if I was
01:30:51.840 feeling depressed. I don't know if I was tired, but I I'm, I'm very much, I like to write how I feel.
01:31:03.520 And I've always been like that, but I've only shared usually the positive moments on albums.
01:31:09.300 And I think that's in some ways taken the heart out of some of my earlier albums.
01:31:14.820 This, this song trying like the devil. Um, there was a local boy who committed suicide. He was one
01:31:22.600 week away from becoming an Eagle scout and his, everyone just said they never knew that this boy
01:31:30.920 was experiencing such pain, pain. And his dad put something on Facebook that just said,
01:31:38.620 I wish people would be more, uh, open and honest about their struggles. I wish celebrities and
01:31:43.500 singers would, would, would be more, would be more honest on social media, not just put forth this
01:31:52.760 fake, perfect imagery, you know? And, and I wrote that song because I was like, you know what?
01:32:00.260 People need to understand that like, I try to be a good husband and I try to be a good dad,
01:32:10.100 but I fall short, but I keep trying. And I think that's the biggest thing is you've got to keep
01:32:15.680 trying. And I put this song out and then two weeks ago we played the Grand Ole Opry and a,
01:32:22.300 a soldier, uh, and he and his wife came to see me play. And he said he struggled with PTSD and he
01:32:29.940 has had, uh, he said, I have suicidal tendencies is what he said. And he said this song trying like
01:32:36.260 the devil. I listened to it every morning and it gets me in the right frame of mind that like,
01:32:42.180 it's okay. I'm not alone in this. Cause I think that's what I think we all want to be viewed as
01:32:49.880 something spectacular. And, uh, and we all want to, we want everyone to know that we have it all
01:32:54.360 together, but I think, but we don't. And I think being honest and going, you know what?
01:33:01.760 I don't have it all together. I, you know, when people are like, you know, you know, you're Aaron,
01:33:06.240 you're a Christian, you have it all together. I go, first of all, I am so messed up that I need
01:33:11.120 Jesus more than most. So let's just set, let's set the bar really low for me. But I poured my heart
01:33:18.480 into this record and there's, there's lighthearted moments, but then there's moments where it's like,
01:33:23.280 I need to be honest with my fans. I need to share my heart with them. They deserve that.
01:33:30.020 They deserve something that's real. If it's truly going to be music with meaning,
01:33:34.200 then it needs to be the whole heart. So I want to get to another song. And I, um, I've,
01:33:40.300 I've never heard a one minute song. It's less than one minute. Yes. Can you play,
01:33:44.720 and I'll get the explanation from you here, but he has a song that is 58 seconds. It's called
01:33:50.220 58. Yeah. And, uh, uh, I want to play that for you and have you explain it. Okay. In one minute. Stand
01:33:58.480 by. So I, uh, I drove across the country, uh, in the last couple of weeks and fortunately I have a
01:34:12.520 good car with a good car seat in it. And so I could adjust it, uh, to my back until yesterday I had two
01:34:18.160 flat tires about six hours out and, uh, I had to rent a car and all they had was a Kia. That's like
01:34:26.120 strapping yourself to a skateboard. I just, I just want to tell you. I anyway, so today I have a very

01:35:20.360 We're back with, uh, uh, Aaron Watson. Do you want to, do you want to explain this song first
01:35:27.860 or play it first? I'll explain it. Uh, the songs call 58 and it's a tribute to, uh, the 58 men and
01:35:36.820 women that were killed at the, um, route 91 festival in Las Vegas. Um, a few years back, we played that
01:35:45.960 festival, uh, the year before the shooting. And, um, I was home that night, that Sunday when I heard
01:35:56.700 about the shooting and I had friends there and, uh, just heartbreaking. And then a few months later,
01:36:04.120 we played national finals rodeo back in Vegas. And some of the, some of the people who had been
01:36:09.400 injured came out to my show. And of course you and I've talked about this. I have that, I have that
01:36:15.280 song blue bonnets that I wrote about my daughter, Julia, that my wife and I lost. And this person
01:36:21.740 who had been injured at the festival, who also lost a friend there. Um, she said,
01:36:28.380 your song blue bonnets has really helped me. She goes, I really wish you would write a song
01:36:35.040 for the victims and their families. And I said, okay. And I thought about like, gosh, how do you
01:36:40.460 write a song like that? But then the next day I woke up with some, with an idea of this,
01:36:46.420 this song that could be called 58, that would be short, meaningful, and only be 58 seconds long.
01:36:55.800 Just, I wanted to end the record, letting those people, those families know that like,
01:37:00.920 we still remember them. We're still thinking about them.
01:37:04.760 Listen to this, 58 seconds long. It's called 58.
01:37:07.720 58, lost their lives. Mothers and fathers, husbands and wives. 58, every daughter and son
01:37:29.100 left a long trail of tears, a long 91. 58, got wings way too soon, waltzing across the stars and the moon.
01:37:47.300 58, 58, angels singing along. Forever missed. This is your song.
01:38:01.760 Your album is, uh, the, the album by the way is Red Bandana. Um, and, and his name is Aaron Watson. And it
01:38:08.840 is, it's, it's a great, if you like Aaron Watson, this is the best he's done, I think. Thank you. Uh,
01:38:15.560 and, uh, we're having him on because radio, uh, doesn't play Aaron Watson very often because,
01:38:22.800 uh, he doesn't have a record label. And so he's kind of the guy who wouldn't change,
01:38:29.860 wouldn't wear the skinny jeans and wouldn't sing the songs that somebody else wrote. He said like,
01:38:34.800 I know I'd rather just play in a, I'd rather play in a honky tonk someplace, uh, then, you know,
01:38:39.800 get rich and get famous playing somebody else's songs. Uh, and you kind of address this in the
01:38:47.440 song, dark horses, which you've addressed before, but it's different this time. It's not about you.
01:38:53.000 Well, you had a big influence on the direction of this album. And I've told you a little bit about
01:38:59.380 this. Well, we had dinner, we had dinner and I had told you about what I was thinking.
01:39:05.120 And you said, Aaron, I get it. You're the underdog. You're an unsigned artist. You're
01:39:10.500 independent. You know, because I'm independent, it's difficult for me to get played on mainstream
01:39:15.120 radio. Now we've had some top 40 hits, but it is, it is difficult. Um, you know, we don't get
01:39:21.820 nominated for awards because I'm independent. It just, it just is what it is. And I'm okay with that.
01:39:27.720 So there is that underdog mentality that I always kind of have to embrace. But you said, listen,
01:39:32.960 you've charted albums. Number one, you you've, you've done things that have never been done
01:39:37.880 before. You know, you are, you are the, you said, I think you said you are like the people's
01:39:45.680 champ. You're showing them that despite the industry telling you, you can't, you're proving
01:39:53.300 them wrong. And you were like, you need to write songs that inspire these people that, that don't
01:39:58.960 talk about how difficult it is for you. You're doing, you're living the dream. You're defying
01:40:04.360 gravity. Show these people, inspire these people. That's why they support you is because they
01:40:11.020 believe in you.
01:40:12.020 I have no recollection of saying that I might've been hammered, uh, even though I'm an alcoholic,
01:40:16.420 but I don't remember saying that, but I, uh, I will tell you when I heard dark horses,
01:40:22.400 I cheered because I thought this is a kind of song that everybody needs to hear the lyrics.
01:40:30.740 This is the one we're kicking off the show to the new show. This is like, this song goes
01:40:36.120 out to everyone who's dreaming. It's like, get out there, work your butt off, earn it.
01:40:42.020 Don't give up. If you know what, get ready. They're going to tell you you're not good enough.
01:40:46.960 Get ready. You may not get into the college you want. You may not get this that you want
01:40:52.280 right off the bat. Whatever your dream is, you need to get ready because it's not going
01:40:57.040 to be easy. Get ready and get out there and work hard.
01:41:01.960 Listen, listen to dark horse.
01:41:04.340 Yeah, this one goes out to the dreamer. Always out there. Raymond high. Don't you let them
01:41:09.140 clip your wings. I'll say that you can't fly. This one goes out to the loser losing time
01:41:14.340 and time again and time again. Keeps on believing that someday they're going to win when nobody
01:41:19.580 knows your name. Nobody knows your face. Everybody count you out long before you start
01:41:25.120 that race. You can let them place their bets. Let them laugh and drink their wine. Let them
01:41:29.780 eat their words when you're first to the finish line.
01:41:33.800 Change your day in the sun. You're rolling like a young gun. Now it's your time to ride.
01:41:39.080 Let your dark horse run. They can't measure your heart. They can't tear you apart. You'll
01:41:44.280 finally catch in your stride. Let your dark horse run. Through the fire. Far the wire.
01:41:50.480 You're a runway train. There's no turning back. This one goes out to the girls. Go show the
01:41:56.440 world you can. Never let them hold you back just because you want a man. This one goes out
01:42:01.920 to those underdogs who aren't afraid to bite. Change a game. Break the chain. Get off that
01:42:06.980 porch and fight.
01:42:08.660 Change your day in the sun. You're rolling like a young gun. Now it's your time to ride.
01:42:13.820 Let your dark horse run. They can't measure your heart. They can't tear you apart. You're
01:42:19.300 finally catching your stride. Let your dark horse run. Through the fire. Far the wire. You're
01:42:25.760 a runway train. There's no turning back. Let your dark horse run. This is from the new CD
01:42:33.480 that is out. It's called Red Bandana by Aaron Watson. It is, I don't know if I'm the only one
01:42:39.920 that feels this way, but there are albums that I will always associate with summer.
01:42:43.900 Yeah. There are things that I will always associate with summer when you had the windows
01:42:48.240 down and you've got the stereo cranked and you're just singing at the top of your lungs
01:42:54.060 because no one can hear you. Yeah. That's this kind of album. Man, that is a great compliment.
01:43:00.720 I wanted this to be something that people could enjoy. It's cinematic. It is. I actually
01:43:08.380 thought that. I did crazy things like I recorded my grandmother's wind chimes. I recorded the
01:43:14.240 train that passes by the ranch. I recorded my dad's AM fuzz radio. Hang on. More on that
01:43:23.100 show when we come back. This is the Glenn Beck program. You should, um, uh, Aaron, you should
01:43:38.960 send your wife on this cruise. We don't want you to go, but that sounds fun. Yeah. You should go to
01:43:43.060 the cruise with us. It is going to be a blast. When is it? Uh, it's next spring. Okay. And, uh,

01:45:05.440 how many number ones. Oh gosh. Lots. So many. I can't even count your last, your last, your
01:45:12.380 last. I was being smart out to all the listeners. No, I know. Um, your last, uh, CD went Carol,
01:45:20.680 right? Carol was the top, the most downloaded album. The one before that it came in at number
01:45:27.460 two, just behind, uh, another band that had basically the song of the year. And then the
01:45:34.900 record before that underdog became the first independent album in the history of country
01:45:38.360 music to chart number one, which is just a testament to the fans. God's blessed me with
01:45:44.440 the best fans. And let me just tell you, your fans are amazing. If, if I texted you every
01:45:50.260 time I'm at a show after a show in the merch line, I always hang out afterwards. If I texted
01:45:56.900 you and it usually it's like at 1230 at night, one o'clock in the morning, every time someone
01:46:01.680 is like, you know, I had never heard of you, but I heard you on Glenn's show and we became
01:46:06.580 fans. You would be so annoyed with me texting you every night. It's amazing. They're great
01:46:12.160 fans. And you know, your fans and my fans, I think are exactly. They're exactly the same.
01:46:16.360 They love our independence. They love the fact that major record labels tell me that I'm not
01:46:21.460 good enough, but yet I don't give up. And I keep, you know, for me, music's not an industry.
01:46:26.600 It's just a family business. Like literally I say this jokingly, but I tell people one of my sales
01:46:32.500 pitches, I'm like, listen, all the proceeds from this album down to the very last penny,
01:46:38.660 all the proceeds go straight into my wife's purse. And I say that jokingly, but it's true. It's like,
01:46:47.060 I've never been paid a penny from my record sales, but mama is doing good. And she takes great care
01:46:53.460 of our babies. Right. But this is, but I've been following you on Instagram, your kids.
01:46:58.440 Yeah. You, you got all these, you signed them. You signed out how many, uh, and you had to unwrap.
01:47:05.340 Yeah. The kids helped me. And let me tell you, I'll tell you where the work ethic comes from,
01:47:11.780 because your fans will, your listeners will love this. I was about 11 years old. My dad's a disabled
01:47:18.480 veteran. Uh, he was injured in Vietnam and growing up, dad's a custodian. It wasn't the coolest job,
01:47:24.580 right? Um, all my buddies were, were, were going swimming one day. I said, dad, I'd like to go
01:47:30.300 swimming. And dad said, I need your help cleaning the church today. And when I complained nonstop,
01:47:38.460 I was in the stall with my dad in a, in a toilet stall. I'm cleaning. I've got the yellow gloves on.
01:47:43.240 I'm scrubbing this toilet. My dad's in the stall next to me. He's cleaning. And I'm just complaining,
01:47:48.340 dad, I didn't want to do this. I hate cleaning toilets. My buddies are swimming. I hate this.
01:47:53.020 My sweet daddy comes around the stall and he says, Hey, he goes, do you think when I was your age
01:48:00.560 that I wanted to grow up to become a custodian? And it got real quiet. He said, but I got hurt in the
01:48:09.460 war and life turned out differently than I thought it was going to. He said, but here's the deal. He
01:48:15.900 said, God has blessed me with this job. And because of this job, I can take care of you, your sister,
01:48:21.880 and your mama. He said, so you can bet that these are going to be the cleanest toilets in town. And
01:48:29.720 that's how I show my thanks for this job that I've been blessed with. And I'm trying to teach that
01:48:35.860 to my kids now with this record, with my, with my business. They helped me unwrap CDs. They,
01:48:43.120 they, we sign them, we box them, we ship them out, we mail them. And I've had to tell them that story
01:48:48.820 about, about dad, about their granddad. Like, listen, granddad was cleaning toilets. I didn't
01:48:53.720 want to help him out, but cleaning toilets with my dad is, those are some of my greatest memories
01:49:00.340 that made me who I am today. It's called whatever you do, it, you need to take pride in it. And I
01:49:07.720 love that my dad said, you can bet that, but that I'm going to show my appreciation for God blessing
01:49:13.400 me with this job by making these the cleanest toilets in town. I love that. It's almost the
01:49:18.980 Martin Luther King street sweeper quote, where he said to the streets, where Martin Luther said to the
01:49:24.380 street sweeper, clean those streets and make them so clean that if Jesus walks down those streets,
01:49:28.780 he says, man, there was one great street sweeper, you know, it's like put pride in your work,
01:49:35.420 give it your best effort. You have a song. Is this really about your mom and dad?
01:49:41.320 Country radio, country radio. It is my mom. It's, it's been a year ago. We were talking about things
01:49:48.700 that happened growing up and my dad's disabilities. And, um, she said, she looked at me and she said,
01:49:55.460 I hope that I gave you a good raising. She goes, I hope that growing up in our house was good for
01:50:04.260 you. And I said, mom, it was amazing. I go, I know we had some hard times. I go, I know that you and
01:50:11.740 dad weren't perfect and that you argued and there were fights and there were ups and downs. I go, but
01:50:16.760 mama, I don't remember those times. There was always love. I go, mom, I remember not the fights,
01:50:25.060 I remember us all making up, hugging and crying and, and getting through the hard times. And I
01:50:32.280 just wanted to write a song from a child's perspective, a child's point of view. Children
01:50:38.860 are amazing. They're so forgiving. They don't hold grudges like adults. They are, they truly,
01:50:46.600 they truly have that heart of God. It hasn't been corrupted by the world yet. I wanted to write a song
01:50:52.400 from a child's perspective about my mom and dad and remember seeing them be in love and how that
01:50:59.420 impacted me today. And it's, it's a song called country radio. And I get to sing this song to my
01:51:04.880 mom tomorrow night on the Grand Ole Opry. And I'm not going to make eye contact with her or I'm going
01:51:11.100 going to lose it. I mean, but I'm excited about mom being at the show, but, um, here it is.
01:51:16.680 They would put me in bed, tug me in tight, say my prayers, kiss my head, make me feel safe at night,
01:51:35.000 walking out, holding hands, barely crack my door, turn the opry on and waltz across the floor.
01:51:43.920 I'd sneak over to the lights, and I'd take a peek. They kept dancing all night,
01:51:50.940 even if the signal got weak. I can still see them, ooh,
01:51:58.060 silhouettes swaying across the wall. Ooh, no, we didn't have much. Then again, we had it all.
01:52:12.880 They made that little house a home full of heart and soul, just like a love song on country radio.
01:52:25.160 They could sing a mom, two-part harmony tune, like Loretta and Conway, Johnny and June.
01:52:34.620 I could hear mama laughing, as daddy swept her off her feet. You know, the sound of love has never sounded so sweet.
01:52:44.480 And thirty years later, I've got three kids and my wife.
01:52:48.900 They're love songs, a legacy, the soundtrack of my life.
01:52:53.200 I can still see them, ooh, silhouettes swaying across the wall.
01:53:04.580 Ooh, no, we didn't have much. Then again, we had it all.
01:53:13.000 They made that little house a home full of heart.
01:53:15.120 It's amazing how, because I think a lot of us grew up the same, that we weren't poor, okay?
01:53:23.500 But we weren't rich, and we didn't have an awful lot, but we never felt poor.
01:53:29.000 Yeah. I never felt like I didn't have anything.
01:53:32.220 Right.
01:53:32.460 Like, I always felt like I had everything I needed.
01:53:35.800 Yeah. I mean, don't, I mean, I don't know about, you were maybe better than I was.
01:53:39.480 Don't get me wrong, there was not, there was stuff that I didn't have or didn't get for Christmas,
01:53:43.460 and, you know, we didn't have the latest toy or the latest whatever.
01:53:46.920 So there were times you were like, how come I can't get that? How come I can't?
01:53:50.340 But we never felt poor.
01:53:52.420 Yeah. But reflecting now, when you look back and go, you know, okay, well, maybe I'd never had the newest Michael Jordans
01:53:59.840 or whatever the kids were wearing, but it's like, those aren't the things that I, like, relish on now.
01:54:05.040 No.
01:54:05.140 Like, I don't think, it's like, oh, man, it's like, you know, it's like what I told my mom, I said,
01:54:09.280 Mom, you gave me the best upbringing, Mama, you know, and my dad, yes, you know what?
01:54:16.960 It's like, I have such a great amount of respect for my father years later, knowing that, you know what?
01:54:24.560 But being a custodian, cleaning those toilets, it wasn't the most popular sought-after job.
01:54:32.560 Yeah.
01:54:33.020 But he did it.
01:54:34.320 He did it so that he could take care of me, my mom, and my sister.
01:54:38.100 It's amazing.
01:54:39.000 And that is probably why you're a success today.
01:54:42.420 Without a doubt.
01:54:43.700 Because you weren't willing to sell your soul.
01:54:46.320 Yeah.
01:54:46.740 Even though radio doesn't play you, a lot of people think radio just plays the hits.
01:54:51.360 Well, no, not necessarily.
01:54:53.360 Yeah.
01:54:53.580 They'll sometimes, many times, play the selection that the record companies are giving them.
01:54:59.720 And so they don't necessarily go for an independent.
01:55:03.140 No, there's some politics involved.
01:55:06.580 And we love radio, and we get a lot of support from a lot of people in radio.
01:55:11.900 It's those rebels that are willing to take a chance on a guy like me.
01:55:17.300 And I tell them, I'm like, guys, we're charting albums top 10, charting albums number one.
01:55:23.420 We're selling out shows across the nation.
01:55:25.520 I have a brand of music you can depend on.
01:55:28.900 Like, I'm not here today, gone tomorrow.
01:55:31.320 It's like, I jokingly say this, but my goal every month is to pay off my wife's credit card bill.
01:55:37.540 And when I say that, I mean my goal is to continue taking care of my family.
01:55:42.540 Because she is not, I mean, I love your wife.
01:55:45.860 She is down to earth.
01:55:47.460 She's such a rock star mom.
01:55:50.980 Yeah.
01:55:51.440 She's got like 100,000 followers on Instagram.
01:55:54.680 And it's like, people like me because they love her.
01:55:58.320 And I'm cool with that.
01:55:59.640 Yeah.
01:55:59.760 Um, it's, it's, it's just, it's one of those things that I'll tell you, I'll brag on you
01:56:06.940 and your fans and your listeners is that when we came in here with Vaccaro two years ago,
01:56:13.240 it was sitting at around number seven or eight on the iTunes chart and on the Amazon chart.
01:56:18.440 After you told your listeners to go buy this album and support independent music, it went
01:56:24.500 straight number one for the rest of the week.
01:56:26.700 I mean, I was, I told you on the phone the other day, I was like, listen, you really,
01:56:31.160 really move the needle for us.
01:56:33.360 And you're like, oh, don't you know, I didn't.
01:56:35.360 I'm like, and I said, Glenn, I wish I could tell you that I tell everyone that, but you're
01:56:40.640 the only, you're, you're the guy who has given us so much support.
01:56:45.940 And, and it's crazy how my music really appeals to your listeners.
01:56:52.100 It is honestly like it was written for my listener.
01:56:57.140 It's, I love your listeners.
01:56:59.260 I love them coming to my shows.
01:57:01.940 It's just, it's, there's a, and can we just talk about it?
01:57:05.880 I don't play it in the background.
01:57:07.040 Uh, please.
01:57:08.580 Uh, let me see which song was, I don't have the list.
01:57:11.360 Here it is.
01:57:11.780 Uh, it was, uh, old friend, old friend, play, play a little bit of old friend and tell
01:57:17.100 me about this as it's playing.
01:57:18.620 So I wrote this song, so, so there was the route 91 shooting and then the next, and everybody
01:57:27.460 was so political and people were going at each other's throats about gun control, blah,
01:57:33.020 blah, blah, blah, blah.
01:57:34.160 The next day Tom Petty dies.
01:57:36.800 And there were two guys on Facebook that were going after each other's throats.
01:57:40.200 The next day when Tom Petty died, those same two guys that were going after each other's
01:57:45.500 throats were posting the same thing about how much Tom Petty's music meant to them.
01:57:50.940 And I thought to myself, music.
01:57:54.560 Hang on, play a little bit.
01:57:55.540 So you have, uh, left wing, right wing.
01:58:25.520 It takes both wings for fight.
01:58:28.100 Uh, can't you hear the children singing red, yellow, black, and white?
01:58:31.440 So stop your fighting, start uniting, sing, uh, sing along.
01:58:34.960 I think we all agree.
01:58:36.360 We love a Tom Petty song.
01:58:37.940 Yeah.
01:58:38.500 It's like left wing or right wing.
01:58:41.060 It takes both wings for flight.
01:58:42.780 Can't you hear the children singing red and yellow, black and white?
01:58:47.000 Stop your fight and start uniting.
01:58:48.700 You know, it's like, it's, it's that message of like, uh, be kind to, be kind.
01:58:56.420 Yeah.
01:58:56.880 It's like do unto others as you'd have them do unto you.
01:59:00.220 It's, it's, it's, it's be nice folks.
01:59:02.760 It's, it's, it's don't, it's like I have, you know, it's one of those things that I called
01:59:09.640 myself the hip.
01:59:10.580 I'm the hypocrite poster boy, perfect and imperfection, right?
01:59:15.840 You know?
01:59:16.520 And it's just like, it's a song where it's like, be nice to others.
01:59:20.720 The name of the album is red bandana.
01:59:23.900 Aaron Watson is the artist name.
01:59:26.960 Even if you don't like country music, I would ask that you would buy this and give it to somebody
01:59:30.880 who does like country music.
01:59:32.960 Uh, because this guy works his butt off, wrote all of these songs.
01:59:37.180 He charts at number one, but radio ignores him because he is a rebel and says, I want
01:59:44.880 to do it my way.
01:59:46.180 Uh, so he needs, I mean, he literally has sold his CDs out of the trunk of his car for years.
01:59:52.500 He has worked really hard.
01:59:54.280 Uh, send a message, uh, that, you know, play the hits, play the hits, uh, buy his new CD.
02:00:02.040 You will love it.
02:00:02.900 It's the best he's done.
02:00:04.080 It's called red bandana, Aaron Watson, Aaron.
02:00:08.040 Thank you.
02:00:08.480 Thank you, brother.
