00:00:01.160 It's Echelon Fit.
00:00:02.500 I got my wife a Peloton bike, I don't know, about four years ago.
00:00:06.400 She hated it.
00:00:08.600 Hated it.
00:00:09.780 And I'm like, okay, okay, well, that was, you know, that was.
00:00:13.180 They're so cheap.
00:00:14.120 Oh, they're so cheap.
00:00:15.420 They're so cheap.
00:00:16.280 Yeah, it cost you almost nothing, I'm sure.
00:00:17.660 That thing we got rid of quickly.
00:00:20.200 And Echelon is her new bike.
00:00:22.640 It is a great bike she loves.
00:00:25.160 And I love it, too, because it isn't anywhere close to the price of that other stupid bike that I couldn't understand why it was so much.

00:01:55.260 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:57.680 I have to tell you, I'm sorry to be this person, but I'm just so offended.
00:02:04.800 I'm so offended.
00:02:05.780 Yeah, Joe Rogan said that.
00:02:07.440 Oh, my gosh.
00:02:10.260 We have to stop this from happening.
00:02:13.120 I'm going to bring you some new audio here.
00:02:14.980 Here's the President of the United States using the N-word.
00:02:20.080 ...that important legislators in defeating the Nunes plan in the basement said, quote,
00:02:25.780 we already have a mayor and we don't need any more big shots.
00:02:29.080 Oh, my gosh.
00:02:29.780 Oh, my gosh.
00:02:30.400 Two times.
00:02:31.440 Two times in nine seconds.
00:02:33.800 And here's Howard Stern.
00:02:35.500 We've got to stop Howard Stern.
00:02:37.240 I'll tell you that right now.
00:02:37.920 And he wore that big hat.
00:02:39.340 That white guy's a big hatin' hat.
00:02:41.680 Whoa.
00:02:42.600 Whoa.
00:02:43.500 Isn't that what we call those?
00:02:44.700 Hatin' hats.
00:02:45.280 Yes.
00:02:45.800 Yeah.
00:02:46.420 Stop.
00:02:47.020 That's crazy.
00:02:48.680 Can we get him off the air right away?
00:02:50.940 And, of course, the Young Turks.
00:02:53.440 The Young Turks.
00:02:55.200 You know, they're on the left.
00:02:56.760 Um, in case you don't know who they are, which would make you about 99% of the country.
00:03:02.380 Here they are.
00:03:03.380 They've got to be stopped.
00:03:05.220 I apologize.
00:03:05.940 I know these are, like, difficult words to hear, but words like...
00:03:08.460 ...are why I lost my job.
00:03:12.160 Oh, my gosh.
00:03:12.840 He only shot...
00:03:14.260 ...run...
00:03:15.040 ...run.
00:03:15.440 Oh, oh, oh.
00:03:16.880 Oh, my gosh.
00:03:19.160 It doesn't matter what context they are using it in.
00:03:22.560 It doesn't matter.
00:03:23.320 Context doesn't matter.
00:03:24.500 Media matters.
00:03:25.200 Context doesn't matter.
00:03:28.240 They all need to be removed.
00:03:30.500 We continue our campaign for righteousness in 60 seconds.
00:03:38.600 Are you, or somebody, somebody that you know, living in pain?
00:03:46.540 Are you the suffer-in-silence kind of person?
00:03:50.740 Or are you more like me?
00:03:51.940 Oh, I hurt.
00:03:53.680 I hurt until your wife says, I can't listen to it anymore.
00:03:57.540 That's why she recommended Relief Factor to me, because I had tried everything else, and
00:04:01.480 she's like, you have to keep trying.
00:04:03.460 You have to keep trying, because I can't take it anymore.
00:04:06.140 So I tried Relief Factor, and within three weeks, I started noticing a difference.
00:04:12.420 I didn't think it was Relief Factor.
00:04:14.320 I'm one of those guys, this is just all in my head.
00:04:17.420 I'm going to stop taking it and see what happens.
00:04:20.920 And I stopped taking it, and all my pain rushed back.
00:04:24.480 Three-week quick start.
00:04:25.740 Try it.
00:04:26.260 70% of the people try it, like me, go on to order more month after month.
00:04:32.480 I take it three times a day, every single day.
00:04:35.060 Have been for the last few years.
00:04:36.940 It's Relief Factor.
00:04:38.320 1-800-4-RELIEF.
00:04:40.900 800-4-RELIEF.
00:04:42.900 Relief Factor.
00:04:43.700 Feel the difference.
00:04:48.200 Oh, my gosh.
00:04:49.700 Oh, my gosh.
00:04:50.360 It is so good that Rogan apologized over the weekend.
00:04:55.820 Here he is.
00:04:57.120 Cut seven.
00:05:00.240 I'm making this video to talk about the most regretful and shameful thing that I've ever
00:05:06.340 had to talk about publicly.
00:05:07.940 There's a video that's out that's a compilation of me saying the N-word.
00:05:12.340 It's a video that's made of clips taken out of context of me of 12 years of conversations
00:05:19.420 on my podcast, and it's all smushed together, and it looks horrible, even to me.
00:05:25.200 Now, I know that to most people, there's no context where a white person is ever allowed
00:05:32.180 to say that word, never mind publicly on a podcast.
00:05:35.980 And I agree with that now.
00:05:38.220 I haven't said it in years.
00:05:39.620 But for a long time, when I would bring that word up, like if it would come up in conversation
00:05:45.640 and stay, instead of saying the N-word, I would just say the word.
00:05:49.660 I thought as long as it was in context, people would understand what I was doing.
00:05:54.020 Stop.
00:05:54.540 Okay.
00:05:55.140 So, Joe, Joe.
00:05:56.660 First of all, I can appreciate what you're going through, and I can appreciate your being
00:06:06.660 honest here, and you really are sorry for people who were offended by that.
00:06:15.740 But, Joe, they weren't offended by that.
00:06:18.280 They did understand the context.
00:06:20.240 If 12 years ago, and I don't know, if 12 years ago you were just throwing that word
00:06:24.860 out, like Howard Stern, if you're just throwing that word out, people, you know, they don't
00:06:32.860 look positively on that word.
00:06:35.820 12 years ago, maybe it was different.
00:06:38.360 But certainly 12 years ago, in context, I think it was a little different, unless you
00:06:46.140 know who the left is.
00:06:49.880 Joe is under attack right now, and I can tell you what's coming next.
00:06:55.840 Yes, you can.
00:06:57.100 I can.
00:06:57.900 As the OG of this entire thing.
00:07:00.060 Thank you.
00:07:00.520 I am the OG.
00:07:02.240 They started out this plan to get you canceled so many years ago.
00:07:06.440 They figured out the whole process and tried to perfect it with you.
00:07:11.140 Now, you seem to still be on the air, so it apparently didn't work out all that well.
00:07:14.660 Well, I will tell you that there's a couple of ways this is going to work out for him.
00:07:18.600 First of all, Joe, never apologize.
00:07:21.800 And I don't mean it like never apologize when you've done something that you find offensive
00:07:29.280 or wrong.
00:07:30.040 You should always apologize when you have done something that you're ashamed of.
00:07:36.900 So, apology accepted.
00:07:39.740 Apology warranted, perhaps.
00:07:42.980 Perhaps.
00:07:44.060 If you were using it in context, I don't think so.
00:07:47.920 But maybe.
00:07:48.540 Should Joe Biden apologize for what he said in that?
00:07:51.300 I don't.
00:07:51.720 I mean, I don't think so.
00:07:52.700 No, I don't.
00:07:53.160 He was quoting someone.
00:07:54.560 That's that's.
00:07:54.940 I am giving I don't know every word that Joe Rogan has said on the podcast.
00:08:00.540 So maybe he has thrown it out there, you know, 12 years ago without context.
00:08:07.200 You know what I mean?
00:08:08.280 I don't know.
00:08:09.580 So I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt and saying, you know, if that was what happened,
00:08:15.200 then you should apologize.
00:08:17.420 But not to these people, not to these people.
00:08:21.520 If you really did hurt and offend people with it.
00:08:25.520 Your audience would have told you that.
00:08:27.640 You wouldn't be as successful as you are now because we are not a country of racists.
00:08:34.880 No matter what everybody wants to say about us, we are not a country of racists.
00:08:40.220 Hear me.
00:08:41.780 This is a lie being pushed on you.
00:08:44.960 Are there racists?
00:08:46.520 Yes.
00:08:48.300 Joe Rogan is not a racist.
00:08:50.760 America is not a racist nation.
00:08:52.960 We are becoming one and it's in a reverse sort of way.
00:08:59.220 But they deny that you could ever be anything other than white and be a racist.
00:09:04.540 That's why Whoopi Goldberg was actually correct.
00:09:08.420 If you believe any of this woke BS.
00:09:12.040 She, she embodied her view on the Holocaust and the Nazis is the woke definition of racism.
00:09:24.560 So I don't understand.
00:09:27.040 Was Whoopi right or was she wrong?
00:09:30.340 Which one?
00:09:31.460 The ADL has so discredited itself because it had that definition for two years on their website.
00:09:43.040 Which makes my point.
00:09:45.640 Whoopi was living the woke terminology.
00:09:50.400 She was, she, she was confused by it because I think she actually believes that BS.
00:09:55.280 Joe, there's a difference between, for your audience.
00:10:04.620 I'm just talking for your audience.
00:10:07.160 Your audience understands you.
00:10:09.520 Your audience knows you.
00:10:11.580 And when you have an epiphany, you should express that epiphany on air.
00:10:19.760 You know, I did something yesterday that was just so stupid.
00:10:22.580 I did something, whatever.
00:10:23.600 I did something 10 years ago that I just have to tell you.
00:10:27.820 But you can't apologize to the people you offended because if you offended, they're no longer listening to you.
00:10:33.920 And you know you didn't offend the vast majority of your audience or they wouldn't be listening to you.
00:10:39.560 So you can talk about an epiphany.
00:10:41.720 I've had an epiphany lately.
00:10:43.180 But if your epiphany on this, which I don't think it is, your epiphany on this is that you're being boycotted.
00:10:50.780 That's the worst thing you can do.
00:10:52.280 The worst thing you can do.
00:10:54.900 Because they're not sincere.
00:10:58.560 You may be, but they're not.
00:11:01.720 This has nothing to do with racism.
00:11:07.160 I can prove it to you here.
00:11:08.760 Let me give you another story that just came out that says it's, you know, forget about racism.
00:11:17.220 Racism?
00:11:17.920 Really?
00:11:18.640 That's what you're concerned about?
00:11:20.700 The real problem.
00:11:23.320 Shoot.
00:11:23.840 Where is it?
00:11:24.720 The real problem is that he's a transphobe.
00:11:29.500 It's a new one now.
00:11:30.520 They've got the racist thing, the anti-vax thing, now transphobic speech is the problem.
00:11:35.780 Now he's transphobic.
00:11:36.320 And that is the real problem, Stu.
00:11:38.240 Well, why?
00:11:38.740 He had Abigail Schreier on his show for an interview.
00:11:41.520 Exactly right.
00:11:42.140 He had Deborah So.
00:11:43.440 I mean, these people sure have lots of qualifications that would make them totally fine to interview on a subject of their expertise.
00:11:52.880 But let's just call them haters.
00:11:55.260 And then we can call Joe Rogan a hater by extension.
00:11:58.720 So the next thing now is transphobe.
00:12:04.660 So what does this tell you?
00:12:07.080 Here's what's going to happen to Joe Rogan.
00:12:09.900 Well, I can't say what's going to happen to Joe Rogan.
00:12:12.500 Joe, I think Joe survives.
00:12:15.860 But if it plays out the way it always plays out, this is going to be wave after wave after wave.
00:12:24.440 Because here's what here's what they're trying to do.
00:12:28.080 And I know because they developed it with me.
00:12:32.760 They'll take one thing and that will be hard for his supporters to defend.
00:12:39.080 He says it was even indefensible.
00:12:42.340 OK, so I don't know in today's world that was indefensible.
00:12:46.940 It's exactly what happened to me when I said, I think Obama's a racist.
00:12:51.300 No, he's not a racist.
00:12:52.260 He just has something, some serious problem with white people or the white culture.
00:12:59.760 Well, yes, it's called CRT.
00:13:01.880 I didn't know what it was called at the time, but that's what I was sensing.
00:13:05.640 And I apologized because I didn't mean that he was a racist.
00:13:12.300 Or does CRT make you a racist?
00:13:15.660 I didn't know what I was dealing with at the time.
00:13:18.280 In artfully expressed, thinking out loud.
00:13:23.580 OK, did that make that go away?
00:13:25.820 No, no.
00:13:27.940 The next charge was that I hated 9-11 victims.
00:13:31.620 And they had one piece of audio, me saying, I'm beginning to hate these 9-11 victims.
00:13:36.560 What was the context?
00:13:39.480 Well, I was at a fundraiser that I started to help the families of 9-11 and or no, sorry, to help the families of those in New Orleans.
00:13:52.280 And all you were seeing on TV the night before this was them shooting at helicopters, people who were stranded, the bad guys.
00:14:02.280 And I said, there's always bad guys, but you can't let that close your heart.
00:14:06.360 We all gave to 9-11 and we know that there are a few people out there that are just using this to make money.
00:14:13.540 And I hear them now.
00:14:15.080 This was what, eight years later.
00:14:16.820 I hear them now and I'm like, you know, I'm sick of hearing about you.
00:14:22.520 I'm sick of it because the only the only victims were hearing one are the ones who are playing the victim card.
00:14:30.120 Did context matter?
00:14:33.220 No, it was literally said at a fundraiser for Katrina victims.
00:14:36.960 And they tried to make it out as if you were seeing some saying something bad about Katrina victims.
00:14:40.840 You were raising money for them.
00:14:42.840 Yes, but they didn't care.
00:14:43.900 No one cared.
00:14:45.140 So it was stop trying.
00:14:46.540 You can't win with those people.
00:14:47.640 Why bother?
00:14:48.420 Then I was a then I was an anti-Semite.
00:14:52.040 Oh, the Defender of Israel award winner is an anti-Semite.
00:14:55.040 That was always an interesting one.
00:14:56.080 So here's the thing.
00:14:58.520 There's two things going on.
00:15:00.120 One, for Joe's knowledge, it's not going to stop.
00:15:04.240 It's not going to stop.
00:15:06.600 It is now they have you fixed in their targets.
00:15:10.580 And there's only one goal, but they will take the secondary.
00:15:16.320 Their goal is to wipe you out.
00:15:19.260 And here's why.
00:15:20.640 Because if they can take you out, they'll take every one of us out.
00:15:24.820 You are you are the the biggest target.
00:15:30.780 You're the apex predator.
00:15:33.200 And if they can take you out, then that sends the message to Spotify and Google and Apple and everybody else.
00:15:41.860 You better not have anybody right of Joe Rogan.
00:15:45.880 You can't.
00:15:46.820 Because we'll come for you, the apex predator, because we just ate the polar bear.
00:15:53.920 So they will come after you wave after wave to make it harder and harder for people who like you to explain because they don't have the context.
00:16:05.500 It's not it's not it's not in a viral video.
00:16:09.340 And if you put together a viral video, it will be it will be censored, dropped or seriously algorithmed out of existence because you are going behind not only a paywall for Spotify, but you are now entering the digital ghetto.
00:16:31.820 And they will put you behind a wall and they've already started to do it.
00:16:36.440 So their goal is to take you out and they don't care about anything.
00:16:41.880 These are not good people.
00:16:44.280 They don't care about any of it.
00:16:49.920 The ends justify the means.
00:16:53.060 The other way this could end for you.
00:16:56.600 And I'm going to give a I'm going to actually give a third option that I'm actually hoping for.
00:17:01.460 But their goal, they have one.
00:17:03.420 The other way that they'll tolerate is that you have been so damaged.
00:17:13.260 That you are no longer acceptable to the majority of people that you might still be acceptable in whispers.
00:17:21.820 You might still be.
00:17:23.600 Yeah, I really like what he says, but it won't ever be like it is now, because right now.
00:17:31.660 You're me when I had the my face on the cover of Time magazine.
00:17:37.660 And that was unacceptable.
00:17:39.540 You cannot have that.
00:17:43.600 So they're going to take you down or they will marginalize you.
00:17:47.880 So where your core is super, super strong.
00:17:51.460 And you know what?
00:17:53.040 That's really all you should care about anyway.
00:17:55.820 The people who actually listen to you, who actually know you.
00:18:00.100 They can't have you bigger than your core.
00:18:06.520 Good thing for you.
00:18:07.460 Your core is in the millions.
00:18:12.080 There is a third way.
00:18:15.580 And this is actually the one I'm hoping for.
00:18:19.240 But it involves.
00:18:22.940 Everything.
00:18:23.540 This is way beyond Joe Rogan.
00:18:25.680 I'll explain in 60 seconds.
00:18:30.500 First, let's raise some money for charity.
00:18:33.420 Should we do that?
00:18:34.760 Oh, man.
00:18:35.720 Wouldn't that be nice?
00:18:37.320 Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
00:18:39.240 I just hate those 9-11 victims so much.
00:18:43.440 Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
00:18:46.200 These are the people on September 11th that actually made a difference.
00:18:49.480 And there are a group of people that actually kept their promise that they would never forget.
00:18:54.220 So what they've done is they've they started with just the people in 9-11.
00:18:59.640 Then they realize people are going to war because of this.
00:19:02.560 So let's take care of our veterans.
00:19:05.480 And then they started seeing the war on the streets.
00:19:08.460 And they're like, you know, the first responders.
00:19:09.940 I think we should probably take care of the first responders, too.
00:19:12.620 And what they do is they pay off any mortgages to lift the financial burden of families that have lost a loved one who has been standing up for us, either in our community or across the world.
00:19:27.960 Our nation's heroes who put their lives on the line for us, our communities, our country, our values, the people who need our help now.
00:19:38.080 Help these heroes and their families join Tunnel to Towers on its mission to do good in their honor.
00:19:44.120 Donate $11 a month at T2T.org.
00:19:47.200 That's T, the number 2T, dot org.
00:19:50.560 T2T, dot org.
00:19:52.880 Ten seconds.
00:19:53.480 Station ID.
00:19:53.900 All right.
00:20:07.080 This, I think, is so much bigger than Joe Rogan.
00:20:10.760 It's always about it's always been about, you know, me or Megyn Kelly and what she said on NBC or whatever.
00:20:19.980 And as the years have gone on, people have realized these these people who are doing this, they're not even real people.
00:20:31.500 This isn't real people.
00:20:32.620 These aren't really people who are offended.
00:20:35.180 These are these are groups.
00:20:37.060 These are power groups that are raising money.
00:20:40.000 And I'm going to show you who they are here in a second.
00:20:42.020 It's pretty phenomenal.
00:20:43.100 Phenomenal.
00:20:44.260 But they're power groups that make tons of money and are working hand in hand with the left.
00:20:52.000 And, you know, whether that's the Hillary Clintons of the world or the Joe Bidens or the Democratic Party or people that used to work for the Democratic Party.
00:21:01.780 But they're not.
00:21:02.600 They're totally separate now.
00:21:04.500 That's who these people are.
00:21:05.940 This is all about politics.
00:21:07.240 And people know it.
00:21:09.960 People know it.
00:21:11.500 They're tired of being called racist.
00:21:13.360 They're tired of being called names.
00:21:15.440 They're tired of this cancel culture.
00:21:18.840 And it's coming to a head.
00:21:22.700 You know, when you have people like Jon Stewart standing up and then you have people like The Rock standing up, but then sitting down.
00:21:30.780 That didn't help The Rock.
00:21:32.580 That didn't help The Rock.
00:21:34.020 You have more and more people on the left.
00:21:40.220 The hippies that didn't sell out.
00:21:44.680 You have more and more of those people, Democrats and the real liberal, not the left, the real liberal that are waking up to this.
00:21:56.560 And they've had enough.
00:21:59.580 This, I think, is bigger than Joe Rogan.
00:22:02.500 And this is the beginning of a movement.
00:22:06.120 This, combined with the vaccine mandates, people standing up and saying, enough is enough.
00:22:13.900 You're not going to tell me what to do.
00:22:15.960 This is the beginning of either a civil war or a great awakening.
00:22:22.500 And I am hoping and praying for the great awakening.
00:22:26.540 The left is pushing for a civil war.
00:22:31.000 More in a minute.
00:22:39.080 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:22:41.540 Grown up is a very long process.
00:22:43.780 It can seem really short when you're watching it happen to your kids and your grandkids.
00:22:49.040 One minute they're spitting up all over your shirt.
00:22:52.020 And the next minute they're off to conquer the world.
00:22:55.540 You have very limited time.
00:22:58.160 Please shape them into the best human beings that you can.
00:23:02.520 And you might be thinking you're doing the best.
00:23:04.800 I have to tell you about my dinner table conversation last night.
00:23:07.780 But there are, there's always more you can do.
00:23:11.800 If you don't have the Tuttle Twins right now, I don't know what you're using to teach your kids the values and principles and about the free market.
00:23:21.140 Because I don't know.
00:23:22.300 I don't know what's out there.
00:23:23.300 And they're not going to get it just by listening to you.
00:23:26.680 You need to reinforce it.
00:23:28.260 And right now with your small kids, you can get the Tuttle Twins books for their age.
00:23:32.340 But you can also get it for teenagers and young adults.
00:23:36.420 Tuttle Twins, they teach the basics in a way that is fun to learn.
00:23:40.740 They also have 12 activity workbooks.
00:23:43.080 They're giving a copy away of their magazine.
00:23:45.740 They have the magazine and a 35% discount off of the normal price.

00:24:02.340 Who are you going to vote for in the primary?
00:24:12.280 I think I'll probably vote for Bernie.
00:24:16.280 Him as a human being, when I was hanging out with him, I believe in him.
00:24:20.500 I like him.
00:24:21.100 I like him a lot.
00:24:21.980 What Bernie stands for is a guy who, look, you could dig up dirt on every single human being that's ever existed.
00:24:28.420 If you catch them in their worst moment and you magnify those moments and you cut out everything else and you only display those worst moments.
00:24:36.140 That said, you can't find very many with Bernie.
00:24:40.300 He's been insanely consistent his entire life.
00:24:43.860 He's basically been saying the same thing, been for the same thing his whole life.
00:24:48.500 And that, in and of itself, is a very powerful structure to operate from.
00:24:55.360 Wow.
00:24:55.560 That is Joe Rogan on Bernie Sanders found currently on the Bernie Sanders website.
00:25:03.200 Yeah, on his YouTube page.
00:25:04.540 How can Bernie Sanders have this racist and proudly display it?
00:25:08.280 Oh, my gosh.
00:25:09.520 That's crazy.
00:25:10.140 Why haven't the people who made the video used any of that or gone after Bernie Sanders?
00:25:16.280 I wonder.
00:25:18.240 I don't know if you saw, but the people responsible for the N-word takedown of Joe Rogan is a group called the Midas Touch.
00:25:30.260 Uh, they partnered, uh, with the Twitter account that started the Rogan N-word, uh, Assault Patriot Takes.
00:25:41.620 So, it's weird that they wouldn't do it themselves because they have a podcast they're pretty darn proud of.
00:25:47.300 Um, in fact, one of the brothers, uh, called the, uh, top news, news podcast in the world.
00:25:53.600 That's what they said the Midas Touch is.
00:25:55.760 It's weird because I never heard of it.
00:25:57.060 They've had guests on like Eric Swalwell and Ted Lieu and Mary Trump.
00:26:03.360 They've had those guys on, Stu.
00:26:05.900 That makes them a news podcast.
00:26:09.300 Hmm.
00:26:09.880 Uh, and it can be found on Spotify, by the way.
00:26:14.180 Hmm.
00:26:16.080 Hmm.
00:26:16.800 It's weird that, it's weird that they're carving out their own little space on Spotify while trying to take down Spotify for this.
00:26:26.020 Anyway, um, here's what Rolling Stone wrote in a piece about them back in April, 2021.
00:26:32.520 Ready?
00:26:33.720 Midas Touch says it's staffed solely by the Missilist brothers or whatever, uh, with the primary goals of protecting American democracy, defeating Trumpism, and holding Republicans accountable.
00:26:48.340 Boy, that sounds like news to me.
00:26:51.500 Uh, we're going to meet those lofty goals by building a massive online grassroots movement.
00:26:56.980 We just built trust and we're very transparent about who we are.
00:27:02.180 Uh-huh.
00:27:03.240 And we're able to connect with people on a personal level because they knew who was actually behind it.
00:27:09.800 Then why wouldn't you release it with your name?
00:27:12.840 Why go through a Twitter account that's not associated with you?
00:27:17.320 Why go through Patriot Takes?
00:27:20.800 And notice Patriot Takes, isn't that a little confusing too?
00:27:23.880 Patriot Takes doesn't, it seems like it's coming from the right.
00:27:27.380 Which it wasn't.
00:27:29.360 Midas Touch, the financial structure, according to the Rolling Stone magazine,
00:27:33.560 leaves room for third parties to receive undisclosed payments,
00:27:38.480 a setup that the former top FEC lawyer says thwarts transparency and violates campaign laws.
00:27:47.120 Oh my gosh.
00:27:49.080 This is almost like BLM.
00:27:53.440 Huh.
00:27:55.200 The heart of Midas Touch's opaque finances is an arrangement with a Virginia company called Prestige,
00:28:02.700 WW Inc.
00:28:05.640 Prestige is run by Adam Park-Hamenko.
00:28:10.600 Now this is the Midas Touch political strategist and former aide to Hillary Clinton,
00:28:18.160 who later did political work for Michael Avante.
00:28:22.560 Avonati.
00:28:23.200 Avonati, yeah, whatever.
00:28:24.360 And by the way, one of the law partners for the Midas Touch was a witness to the events
00:28:35.760 at the center of the extortion scheme, and he was called in to testify in the Avonati case.
00:28:42.620 Anyway, so this other group frequently promotes Midas Touch on social media.
00:28:50.620 Now, Rolling Stone started to ask questions, and they found out that that's a super PAC,
00:29:01.300 and Prestige, WW has no public-facing website.
00:29:07.560 So, wait, hang on.
00:29:10.800 So they're doing work, and it's a company, and it has no public-facing website.
00:29:14.620 The way Rolling Stone found it was just through corporate, state corporate filings.
00:29:20.940 So this is the company, now follow this, this is the company that the people who produced
00:29:27.880 the Joe Rogan N-Word video partner with.
00:29:34.100 But listen how they partner, because remember, the Midas Touch brothers, they work for free.
00:29:40.720 They work for free, okay?
00:29:42.860 They take all of those donations, and they give them right directly to the people who can
00:29:53.220 really make a difference.
00:29:55.380 Except, except he, one of the brothers, Brett, he is being paid for his work producing videos
00:30:06.020 for the super PAC, but the person paying him is Prestige, WW, you know, the one that they
00:30:18.900 get money from, and then the Midas Touch brothers, they send it to Prestige because they're a consultant.
00:30:27.220 Apparently, Brett, the brother of the Midas Touch, he's being paid for consulting prestige.
00:30:37.560 So, they're paying for consulting to a company that is paying them for consulting.
00:30:44.840 It's weird.
00:30:46.100 It's weird, sure, sure.
00:30:48.180 But I'm sure that it's completely, it's no, there's no way that's a pass, you know, a pass
00:30:54.360 through, where that money is just being, you know, kind of laundered.
00:30:58.040 There's no way that is happening.
00:31:01.360 So, these people are crazy, crazy lefties that have a podcast, I think anybody can have a
00:31:10.680 podcast on Spotify, have a podcast that they say is the number one news podcast in the world.
00:31:18.260 Okay, they're the ones going after Spotify.
00:31:23.520 They're the ones that are doing it.
00:31:25.340 Somebody who used to work for Hillary Clinton, you know why they're doing it, right?
00:31:30.800 They're doing it because they're proud of doing it.
00:31:34.660 Now that it has gone out under somebody else's website and people have found out, oh, it's
00:31:40.240 the Midas Touch guys, now they're proud of it.
00:31:43.500 Why are they proud of it?
00:31:44.680 Because now they can raise even more money.
00:31:47.440 We're taking down Joe Rogan, the big bad evil guy.
00:31:51.340 Well, who's going to be giving money there?
00:31:53.320 The Hillary Clintons of the world, not the average person.
00:31:56.060 They're going for the big fish.
00:31:57.560 They're going for the big donors.
00:31:59.320 It's yet another group of people that have sold out for cash.
00:32:02.900 Don't believe a damn thing.
00:32:04.460 Spotify last night, the CEO wrote this ridiculous letter.
00:32:16.160 There are no words that I can adequately convey how deeply sorry I am for the way the Joe Rogan
00:32:21.160 experience controversy continues to impact each of you.
00:32:24.300 Not only are some of Joe Rogan's comments incredibly hurtful, really, in context, I want to make
00:32:31.500 sure that you, that they don't represent the values of this company.
00:32:36.180 And I know the situation leaves many of you feeling drained and frustrated and unheard.
00:32:41.760 Oh.
00:32:43.200 Oh.
00:32:43.640 This weird terminology they keep using, like drained, exhausted, tiring.
00:32:50.640 Like, what is this?
00:32:51.840 Like, they act like they just ran a marathon.
00:32:54.100 Because somebody 10 years ago said a word you don't like?
00:32:57.060 You're drained?
00:32:58.140 What kind of weirdo are you?
00:33:00.320 You should listen to them.
00:33:02.460 That's why they feel unheard.
00:33:04.120 Because people like you.
00:33:04.980 I think it's important that you're aware that we've had conversation with Joe and his team
00:33:08.920 about some of the content of his show, including the history using some racially insensitive
00:33:12.740 language.
00:33:13.980 Following these discussions and his own reflections, he chose to remove a number of episodes from
00:33:18.640 Spotify.
00:33:19.900 He also issued an apology over the weekend.
00:33:23.060 Then he goes into his apology, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:33:27.000 But if we believe in having an open platform as a core value of the company, then we must
00:33:32.020 also believe in elevating all types of creators, including those from underrepresented communities
00:33:40.900 and a diversity of backgrounds.
00:33:44.860 If I hear a diversity of backgrounds one more time, what you're saying is somebody who believes
00:33:52.440 and spouts exactly what the left says, but is a person of color.
00:33:58.180 If you're a person of color and you don't spout what the left says, then you're not part of that
00:34:09.140 underrepresented community.
00:34:10.660 OK, and I don't know why I go to Apple TV and they suggest, hey.
00:34:18.360 Hey, here's a bunch of movies from black filmmakers.
00:34:23.820 Oh, well, I'm only interested in the movies from Asian filmmakers tonight.
00:34:31.980 How about just giving me good movies?
00:34:34.680 How about just giving me good movies?
00:34:36.420 Now we're expected to judge the content of one show based on their skin color.
00:34:43.340 Is that is that what it is?
00:34:44.580 I should like this movie because it was directed by a black man or a black woman or black transgender
00:34:54.460 woman or one, a black transgender woman who lost her arm fighting against the she got it
00:35:04.420 caught into a voting machine and she was fighting against Donald Trump.
00:35:09.320 That's the director I want.
00:35:14.280 That's why Spotify is going to commit an investment of one hundred million dollars for the licensing,
00:35:22.320 development and marketing of music and artists and songwriters and audio content from the
00:35:28.480 historically marginalized groups.
00:35:32.680 Wow.
00:35:34.420 Wow.
00:35:35.280 Isn't that great?
00:35:36.180 Now, anyone can be on Spotify.
00:35:39.400 Anyone can be on Spotify.
00:35:42.880 OK, Scott Baio could be on Spotify.
00:35:46.480 I just want you to know that.
00:35:48.820 This will dramatically increase our efforts in these areas.
00:35:52.520 While some might want us to pursue a different path, I believe more speech on more issues can
00:35:57.800 be highly effective in improving the status quo and enhancing the conversation together.
00:36:02.420 Whoa, you are way out of touch, mister.
00:36:05.960 I deeply regret that you're carrying so much of this burden.
00:36:09.980 You're not carrying any burden.
00:36:12.020 What burden are you carrying?
00:36:13.620 I also wanted to be transparent in setting the expectation that in order to achieve our goal of becoming a global audio platform, these kind of disputes will be inevitable.
00:36:23.880 Yes, yes, yes, they will.
00:36:26.680 But you don't want them to be those of you on the left.
00:36:29.900 One of the things that I have been thinking about is what additional steps we can take to further balance creator expression with user safety.
00:36:39.960 Dude, you're Spotify, you're not making chainsaws.
00:36:45.780 I've asked our teams to expand the number of outside experts we consult on these efforts, and we look forward to sharing more details.
00:36:54.500 So your idea is to get more elites?
00:36:58.100 Let's get some more elites in here to tell us how we can be less divisive while we're being divisive.
00:37:10.240 What exactly?
00:37:11.740 What experts do you need?
00:37:13.380 Listen to the people, man.
00:37:16.260 Listen to the people.
00:37:18.320 By the way, for the first time in my life, I don't know if it helps that Spotify is not an American company.
00:37:28.360 It's based in Sweden.
00:37:31.720 Does that help Joe Rogan on freedom of speech?
00:37:35.600 That they're not an American company?
00:37:40.100 For the first time in my life, I have no idea.
00:37:43.460 Be sad if it was.
00:37:48.880 Patriot Mobile, here's a company that's not going to write any of those stupid letters.
00:37:53.000 Nope.
00:37:53.740 You know what?
00:37:55.480 We're going to spend an extra $100 million making sure black people are using our phones.
00:38:02.620 We don't want none of them Asians because they're like white people.
00:38:08.380 They're not going to do that.
00:38:10.200 Nope.
00:38:10.680 Nope.
00:38:11.400 They'll take anybody.
00:38:12.600 And why do they do that?
00:38:15.600 Because they actually believe in the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights.
00:38:20.940 It's crazy, isn't it?
00:38:23.000 Patriot Mobile is there.
00:38:24.860 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck to replace your big corporate cell phone company.
00:38:30.620 They're on the same towers.
00:38:32.120 Same towers.
00:38:33.420 So you're getting the same coverage.
00:38:34.960 You're getting it about, for a lot of people, half the price.
00:38:38.280 And you're working with a company that's working with you, not against you.
00:38:43.120 What do you say?
00:38:44.040 Switch?

00:39:00.780 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:39:16.460 So, Stu, is it help or hurt that Spotify is a Swedish company?
00:39:25.020 You said that earlier, and I've had the same thought, and it is a revolting thought.
00:39:30.700 That you don't know.
00:39:31.460 That maybe it's better if they're a European company than an American company.
00:39:34.700 Isn't that crazy?
00:39:36.140 That is disgusting.
00:39:37.340 It's literally revolting.
00:39:38.860 But I can tell you what would happen here.
00:39:40.840 Look at what happened just on the Olympics.
00:39:43.320 You know, the girl, the American that sold out and was like, not the skier.
00:39:47.680 Who knew there was a second one?
00:39:49.520 That's like, I'm going to skate for China because I love concentration camps.
00:39:54.820 It's like a CYO camp, right?
00:39:57.360 Anyway, she was skating, and apparently she fell.
00:40:03.040 You apparently cannot find that anywhere now.
00:40:07.160 It's been deleted.
00:40:08.400 The Chinese didn't want it on, so it's not on NBC's website.
00:40:12.740 You can't find it.
00:40:13.620 Oh, yeah.
00:40:13.860 We got our show on Friday got pulled off of multiple social networks because we played the Savannah Guthrie clip.
00:40:20.940 And a Chinese company came after us for it.
00:40:25.640 Shut up.
00:40:26.500 Do we still have the clip?
00:40:32.120 But you're right, though, with this.
00:40:34.600 Because my thought was maybe a Swedish company is separated enough from the ridiculous politics of this moment over there.
00:40:41.540 The Great Reset is global, though.
00:40:43.540 It's global.
00:40:43.800 I don't have confidence in this, but maybe.
00:40:46.220 The Obamas have decided that they may be pulling their podcast.
00:40:52.960 I mean, this is all with a bunch of giant zilches pulling their music from Spotify.
00:40:58.060 If one of these big people go down this road, he's in trouble.
00:41:02.320 I mean, it's horrible and wrong, but these guys, they started with you, and they've perfected it over the years.
00:41:09.680 Come to the blaze.
00:41:11.360 Joe, come to the blaze.
00:41:14.380 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:41:17.060 Now, she could get on Bilt Bar.
00:41:18.840 She could lose some weight.

00:41:20.920 And I can only I can say these things because I'm a fatty, fat, fatso.
00:41:24.360 You know what I mean?
00:41:24.860 They could stand to lose a few LBs.
00:41:28.380 Still, hey, I've been there, sister.
00:41:30.520 I know what it's like.
00:41:31.540 Bilt Bar could help you.

00:42:45.100 We got to stand together.
00:42:49.180 It's gonna survive.
00:42:53.140 Stand up straight and hold the line.
00:42:56.580 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:43:10.500 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:14.880 Stand up straight and hold the line.
00:43:15.980 Oh my gosh.
00:43:18.440 Did you see the Olympics this weekend?
00:43:20.080 No, the answer to that should be no, not a second.
00:43:25.040 I wouldn't give NBC or their sponsors a second of my time.
00:43:29.420 Not one second.
00:43:30.720 I don't care if the ice skater was juggling nuclear weapons.
00:43:36.520 One of them had to be diffused by the end of the pirouette.
00:43:41.920 I don't care.
00:43:42.840 You're not watching it.
00:43:44.040 I'll tell you why the damn commies are taking over the country.
00:43:51.100 Tell you all about it.
00:43:52.320 60 seconds.
00:43:56.940 So John wrote in recently about his experience with Relief Factory.
00:44:00.060 He said, I use Relief Factor for about six months now.
00:44:03.520 I was highly skeptical at first.
00:44:06.160 That's putting it mildly, at least for me, John.
00:44:08.480 And I put off trying it until my brother loaned me a few days worth of his since he found it effective.
00:44:15.400 I was pleasantly surprised.
00:44:18.380 I benefit every day as Relief Factor reduced my constant back pain, which came from years of injuries and aging.
00:44:25.620 I don't know if it helps everybody, but it sure helps me.
00:44:28.180 John, thank you.
00:44:29.700 I feel exactly the same way.
00:44:32.080 Try the three-week quick start now.
00:44:34.040 Develop for you at $19.95.
00:44:36.060 That's a dollar a day, like a trial pack.
00:44:39.320 Hundreds of thousands of people have tried and ordered Relief Factor, and about 70% of them feel exactly like John and I do.
00:44:47.020 We take it three times a day religiously now.
00:44:50.180 Relief Factor.
00:44:51.440 Go to relieffactor.com.
00:44:53.840 ReliefFactor.com or call 800, the number for relief.
00:44:58.340 ReliefFactor.com.
00:44:59.880 Feel the difference.
00:45:02.300 Oh, my goodness.
00:45:03.720 Well, I am so proud to be an American today, you know, and be able to support those companies like GoFundMe.
00:45:12.180 Oh, I love them.
00:45:15.180 Love them.
00:45:16.000 Love, love, love, love, love, love them.
00:45:19.300 Oh, and I can say that because they backtracked on all the money that was donated to the Canadian truckers.
00:45:29.500 They backtracked.
00:45:30.220 They said on Friday, you know, that they were going to give it.
00:45:33.700 They were not going to give it to the truckers.
00:45:35.100 They would give it to charities of their choice.
00:45:37.420 And I loved that.
00:45:38.680 I thought that was great, except that might be fraud.
00:45:42.320 That might be highly illegal.
00:45:46.240 And then when people said, we're going to open up investigations on you.
00:45:50.380 Good going.
00:45:51.580 Good going, AGs.
00:45:53.580 We're going to open an investigation up on you.
00:45:55.780 They changed their mind.
00:45:57.180 And that's why I'm so proud of them.
00:45:59.360 I'm so proud of them that they took a horrible idea.
00:46:03.840 Somebody that somebody should have been fired for that idea, even uttering that in the latest meet.
00:46:09.120 You know what we should do?
00:46:09.940 We should just not give the money back, and we shouldn't give it to the Canadian truckers.
00:46:14.980 We should give it to charities we like.
00:46:17.480 You know what, Bob?
00:46:18.500 Great idea for another company.
00:46:20.840 Get out.
00:46:21.880 That's what should happen.
00:46:23.140 But no, they sat around and went, yeah, you know what?
00:46:25.600 That'd sure show them, huh?
00:46:27.060 We just take all that, those $8 million that we got, we give it to somebody else.
00:46:31.680 Let's give it to Black Lives Matter because they're totally clean.
00:46:36.840 How did that even happen?
00:46:38.300 How did that even happen?
00:46:40.780 It's happening because these elites think they're better and smarter than you.
00:46:46.760 You know, Bob, that's a great idea because I've been thinking about it.
00:46:51.360 And, you know, the people that gave that $8 million, they didn't know what they were thinking.
00:46:57.340 You know, they're not smart enough to know that that money should go to Black Lives Matter.
00:47:03.320 Or, you know, maybe we give it to that group trying to take down Joe Rogan.
00:47:08.320 Because that's what they'd do if they were educated.
00:47:11.460 Oh, yes.
00:47:13.160 Yes.
00:47:13.700 Yes.
00:47:14.060 I love it.
00:47:15.000 That's what we're going to do.
00:47:16.420 Now, they're having their meeting today, I'm sure.
00:47:20.040 And they're like, how do we get these damn politicians to point, get George Soros on the phone?
00:47:26.440 We need more AGs from George Soros.
00:47:29.300 So, I'm so proud of GoFundMe.
00:47:34.000 And I am so proud, so proud of Twitter.
00:47:38.760 You know, Twitter said, you know, we only took the video of the Olympics and the Uyghurs down.
00:47:49.940 We only took these things down.
00:47:51.920 Like the figure skater of China who apparently, I don't know, hit a wall, burst into flames.
00:47:56.540 Don't know.
00:47:57.100 Didn't watch it.
00:47:58.800 Didn't even search for the video.
00:48:00.800 Happy to say that.
00:48:02.640 But they took those things down.
00:48:06.140 And Twitter says it was the IOC.
00:48:10.060 Their representative lobbied us to remove that clip showing the Uyghur athlete lighting the Olympic flame.
00:48:17.920 And so, we as a big tech company, they swayed us.
00:48:23.680 And so, we took that down.
00:48:25.060 Oh, really?
00:48:26.740 Really?
00:48:27.780 Really?
00:48:28.940 Huh.
00:48:30.120 Huh.
00:48:31.200 So, they say it's a copyright complaint that was sent to us by the copyright owner and their author.
00:48:38.560 Then why did you say earlier that they had lobbied you to remove the – why didn't they just say,
00:48:45.680 yeah, they called us up and it's a copyright violation we got rid of?
00:48:48.780 Why did you say they lobbied you?
00:48:52.360 Isn't that weird?
00:48:54.240 Ha.
00:48:55.680 So, anyway, the IOC says, you know, you can't do it.
00:49:01.240 But why did NBC take down the figure skater?
00:49:07.720 You know, the one that burst into flames?
00:49:09.300 I have no idea.
00:49:09.960 Why can't you find that one on NBC?
00:49:14.800 Because that would be a copyright holder.
00:49:16.720 Or is it China?
00:49:19.200 Is it China?
00:49:20.860 I love China.
00:49:22.660 I love, love, love, love, love them.
00:49:24.960 I can't wait to buy the latest phone made by Uyghurs.
00:49:29.220 Because did you see, Stu?
00:49:30.880 They lit the Olympic torch.
00:49:33.080 It was great.
00:49:34.740 It was an in-your-face moment, Glenn.
00:49:37.060 It was.
00:49:37.880 An in-your-face moment by President G.
00:49:41.200 Now, I'd like to play, and I would play it, over and over and over again.
00:49:45.200 But it'll have the entire show removed from the internet.
00:49:48.880 So, not going to give them the satisfaction of that.
00:49:51.880 The, we told you that, that the Uyghur lit it, and we played the clip, and we have it.
00:49:59.800 We saved it.
00:50:00.520 So, it will be, we'll put it in our vault.
00:50:02.840 So, when this madness ends, you'll be able to post it online and see it.
00:50:06.920 Anyway, the, we played it on Friday, and Friday's show has been removed from the internet.
00:50:13.780 Because, I mean, it was a copyright violation, and they, you know, they lobbied Twitter, which means they just served Twitter with a piece of paper from an attorney saying copyright violation, or you lobbied Twitter.
00:50:31.140 That's weird.
00:50:31.860 Anyway, I'd like to play it, but let me just, we're going to just recreate it.
00:50:39.140 You know, and my voice is a little, will you play the other side?
00:50:42.640 And this is Savannah Guthrie.
00:50:45.400 Okay, you ready?
00:50:47.540 You're Mike, I guess.
00:50:49.080 Mike!
00:50:51.920 Yeah.
00:50:53.280 I don't think he said that.
00:50:55.780 Mike, this is a moment, uh, quite provocative.
00:50:58.120 You know, so you're laughing through this.
00:50:59.560 This is not a, you do her.
00:51:01.360 I'll play the other side.
00:51:03.820 Mike, this is a moment, it's quite provocative.
00:51:07.820 It's a statement from the Chinese President Xi Jinping.
00:51:11.160 I'm running as fast as I can.
00:51:12.500 To choose an athlete from the Uyghur minority.
00:51:15.100 We are going to burn you alive with the torch.
00:51:17.960 It is an in-your-face response to those Western nations, including the U.S., who have called this Chinese treatment of that group genocide and diplomatically boycott of these games.
00:51:33.660 There will be much discussion about this moment.
00:51:36.780 That is beautiful.
00:51:37.900 That was.
00:51:38.540 That is beautiful.
00:51:39.500 She sounds good, too.
00:51:40.500 She did.
00:51:41.340 Yeah.
00:51:41.580 She did.
00:51:42.100 And the whipping sounds really do add to the Olympic spirit.
00:51:45.720 It does.
00:51:47.420 Yeah.
00:51:47.720 I mean, did anybody, did anybody think that that, did anybody buy that except for Savannah Guthrie and NBC?
00:51:56.080 Anybody?
00:51:57.060 I mean, if you were paid by your corporation, I would say nothing.
00:52:03.560 Say nothing.
00:52:04.360 Just let it play.
00:52:06.600 Don't say that it's a Uyghur.
00:52:08.000 Nothing.
00:52:08.560 And if my corporation had a problem with it, I'd come out and say, you know, I just could not bring myself.
00:52:17.620 This is not a pro-American statement.
00:52:19.600 I want everybody clear on that.
00:52:20.840 It's not pro-American.
00:52:21.560 I hate America as much as the rest of NBC.
00:52:24.660 But let me tell you, I'm not going to deliver the propaganda, Eric Goebbels.
00:52:31.540 I'm not doing it.
00:52:34.440 Nah.
00:52:35.920 Nah.
00:52:37.520 Nah.
00:52:38.560 Got too much money at stake.
00:52:40.160 Too much money.
00:52:43.300 Oh.
00:52:44.820 Okay.
00:52:45.880 So, you have the Olympics.
00:52:50.080 Apparently, again, I didn't watch it.
00:52:54.180 But apparently, the message of the entire opening ceremony was unity and coming together.
00:53:02.720 The world just coming together, you know, in the spirit of, in the Olympic tradition.
00:53:08.560 In the spirit of the Olympic athletes, just competing with one another.
00:53:13.220 Competition.
00:53:14.080 That sounds awful lot like capitalism.
00:53:17.080 What do you mean?
00:53:18.240 Competition.
00:53:18.720 Is it a level playing field?
00:53:20.980 Well, if you're looking for a literal level playing field, yeah.
00:53:27.580 All the, but one, you know, one country doesn't have to have a hill on their bike lane.
00:53:33.560 I don't know what you mean.
00:53:35.260 Well, as long as it's a level playing field.
00:53:37.480 Can the countries that are oppressed, can they have maybe a downhill part of the bike race?
00:53:45.680 Could they just, could we dig theirs down a little bit?
00:53:48.900 So, there's straight down.
00:53:51.240 Could we do that?
00:53:52.480 Or, I mean, we could make it uphill for America.
00:53:55.800 Uh, anyway, um, the, the whole point was, let's come together and compete.
00:54:03.580 Let's all compete.
00:54:04.480 Let's just be in the Olympic spirit.
00:54:05.860 Let's come together.
00:54:07.060 We can do this together, says China, the night before they announced with Russia a new world order
00:54:14.740 where, that the world is led by China and Russia and against the United States.
00:54:19.040 Cause I think that's the Olympic spirit that we were looking for, you know, I think that's it, you know, and I, and I think, I think Savannah, I think she's, she's great.
00:54:30.400 She's wonderful that she didn't, you know, apparently, cause I didn't watch it, apparently didn't point out, you know, that whole unity thing that we just heard from president G, uh, last night kind of tainted a little bit.
00:54:44.920 I mean, it was tainted for the run, you know, that part of the slave running to light the Olympic torch kind of tainted there, but I didn't mention it, but I think I'm going to have to mention, Hey, let's all come together, you know, as a world and let's just all compete.
00:55:01.820 And, and we need to spread this Olympic, uh, spirit.
00:55:05.120 It's cause it's, it's wonderful.
00:55:06.760 It's great.
00:55:07.460 It's fantastic.
00:55:09.340 Uh, and then let's, you know, uh, join with Russia to destroy America.
00:55:13.500 I think that was good.
00:55:15.200 I think that was good.
00:55:16.360 And, uh, NBC, you have nothing to be ashamed of nothing.
00:55:20.940 We know who you are.
00:55:22.540 I know, I know, I know green week, you care deeply, deeply about these things.
00:55:31.200 You do, you do.
00:55:32.880 And your coverage of the Olympics where China is coming out and, and saying, we're just, we're not torturing people.
00:55:42.920 Uh, even though we clearly are, and we're laughing at everybody's face, uh, but we're just enslaving the entire world, you know, with our money and making everybody bow to us.
00:55:55.960 I think that is a noble, noble, I think that's a noble goal that you're pursuing there.
00:56:02.140 I do.
00:56:03.880 And that's why you shouldn't give one bloody second to NBC.
00:56:10.720 I don't care if NBC is holding the exclusive of some world leader going aliens do exist.
00:56:18.660 I want you to meet Bob.
00:56:20.260 He's from another solar system.
00:56:22.820 It'll eventually get on to, you know, another channel.
00:56:26.880 Don't watch the Olympics.
00:56:29.360 Let NBC feel, feel the impact of that decision.
00:56:35.780 And they'll only feel the impact of that decision when all of their sponsors are like, um, you have no ratings.
00:56:42.080 So I guess you're going to play my commercial for the next six months on your network for free.
00:56:48.820 Cause that's what happens.
00:56:50.500 Let them feel the ramifications of siding with China.
00:56:57.460 Maybe that'll catch their attention.
00:57:01.100 American financing NMLS 1-823-34 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
00:57:07.840 So, you know, we're all hardworking Americans.
00:57:11.080 You've spent your whole life most likely thinking like one, you know, a pinch of grit and a free market to move around in.
00:57:18.620 And you can just about do anything.
00:57:21.300 You can pull yourself up.
00:57:24.320 Well, that is when government stays out of the way.
00:57:29.220 Here we are with market volatility, unlike anything we've seen in a long time.
00:57:33.960 Mostly because the government can't seem to keep its greedy and stupid paws out of your business.
00:57:38.380 And that complicates everything.
00:57:40.400 But there's still ways to simplify them.
00:57:42.320 For instance, if you have a home loan, I want you to call American financing.
00:57:46.780 Get a lower rate now before they don't exist anymore.
00:57:51.860 Get a lower interest rate.
00:57:53.980 If you have high interest credit cards, which I can guarantee if you have a credit card, you're most likely paying a number that you just don't even want to look at.
00:58:02.720 Get out of those.
00:58:03.660 Pay them off if you can.
00:58:04.740 If not, roll them into your mortgage.
00:58:06.280 Get a consolidation loan.
00:58:08.480 Call American financing.
00:58:09.760 They can save you hundreds, if not thousands of dollars.
00:58:12.780 And you can close in as little as 10 days.
00:58:15.620 So, call American financing right now.
00:58:19.180 Americanfinancing.net at 800-906-2440.
00:58:24.200 800-906-2440 or Americanfinancing.net.
00:58:29.580 10-second station ID.
00:58:30.600 Well, the good news is our government is not involved in censorship at all.
00:58:45.680 Oh, that's good.
00:58:46.360 Yeah.
00:58:46.800 Well, it couldn't be, Glenn, because, you know, the First Amendment, that would not be something they'd be able to participate in.
00:58:51.640 Well, okay.
00:58:52.420 Just a few exceptions to that.
00:58:54.200 But, on Tuesday, Jen Psaki said that media companies need to do more to stop the spread of misinformation and disinformation,
00:59:02.700 which is a lot like the call that she and the White House made in July for Facebook to remove posts containing vaccine misinformation.
00:59:12.780 And that was, you know, that also, you know, led to the comments regarding the backlash towards podcast host Joe Rogan, where they said, you know,
00:59:28.780 I hope that, you know, all major tech platforms and all major news sources, for that matter, be responsible and vigilant.
00:59:35.200 So, it's just those three.
00:59:37.160 Well, and the Surgeon General coming out in an interview saying that these tech giants have an important role to play in curating information and that we have to root out misinformation.
00:59:51.060 Okay.
00:59:51.260 Well, that's, I mean, four examples are bad.
00:59:53.000 And it's not just what the government can do.
00:59:55.000 This is about companies and individuals, you know, recognizing the only way to get past information, misinformation, is to be careful about what we say, you know.
01:00:04.640 So, and that preceded, you know, or followed, you know, his July 15th, his misinformation advisory that was intended to instruct tech companies on how to handle those misinformation.
01:00:20.140 Look, I'm not saying that's good.
01:00:21.620 And then there was Saki urging Facebook and other social media platforms to create a robust enforcement strategy that builds their properties and provides transparency about the rules and faster action against harmful posts, you know, just to promote quality information sources, you know.
01:00:39.780 So, I mean, look, there's some exceptions to.
01:00:43.000 And then Joe Biden also came out saying that Facebook should do something about misinformation because they're killing people.
01:00:48.020 I'm quoting, they're killing people.
01:00:49.500 I mean, really, look, here's the deal.
01:00:52.320 The only pandemic we have is among the unvaccinated and they're killing people.
01:00:57.960 Well, no amendments, absolute.
01:00:59.860 And then he, then he, in January, also came out and said, I make a special appeal to social media companies and media outlets.
01:01:06.460 Please deal with the misinformation and disinformation, you know, on your shows.
01:01:11.040 Well, if you ignore some of the National Institute of Health, the director there said, you know, this is just like yelling fire in a crowded theater.
01:01:21.920 You know, are you really allowed to do that without some consequence?
01:01:25.680 Someone doesn't know the history of that particular court case, but that's a whole situation.
01:01:30.400 In May, in May, the White House came out and said, Saki came out and said that we shouldn't amplify certain speech.
01:01:40.100 You know, when they were talking about Donald Trump being banned, you know, certain speech, you know, this shouldn't be amplified by these tech tech giants.
01:01:47.420 So, but other than that, there's no, they've stayed on the sidelines.
01:01:52.160 They're, they love free speech.
01:01:54.520 They, it's just like, they love the second amendment.
01:01:56.540 They love the first one.
01:01:57.920 Amen, brother.
01:01:59.000 You know, and there's certainly no other parts of that first amendment that they've violated over the past couple of years.
01:02:05.280 You're not, you're not saying, God forbid, religion.
01:02:09.460 No, gosh, no, of course not.
01:02:11.520 They would never.
01:02:11.980 Or freedom of press of any kind.
01:02:13.960 Or to, right to assemble.
01:02:15.220 Right to assemble.
01:02:15.960 Certainly not.
01:02:16.960 They've never.
01:02:17.820 Yeah.
01:02:18.600 Uh, violated that in any way.
01:02:21.260 No.
01:02:21.500 So, everything's going fine.
01:02:23.680 And don't worry about it at all.
01:02:26.240 Help us.
01:02:26.900 We have a gun to our head.
01:02:29.460 We're like, we're like the broadcasters in China doing the Olympics right now.
01:02:33.640 It's really despicable.
01:02:34.900 And they keep doing, they keep jumping into this as if they have the right to do so.
01:02:39.500 They don't.
01:02:40.560 They don't.
01:02:41.160 I mean, you can, can Spotify not pay one of their employees?
01:02:45.180 They could.
01:02:46.440 It's a bad idea.
01:02:47.340 We would fight against it, but they could do that.
01:02:49.140 The government has no role in this whatsoever.
01:02:52.420 If I were Joe Rogan, I would be praying that they wanted to get rid of it.
01:02:57.780 Yeah.
01:02:58.180 His reaction.
01:02:58.820 Okay, I'll tell you what, I'll take 80 million of the hundred.
01:03:01.360 His reaction to this actually seems like he doesn't understand the amount of influence
01:03:05.360 he has.
01:03:05.900 Like, so far, his multiple apologies scream to me that he's protecting the Spotify deal.
01:03:11.160 And it's like, why bother?
01:03:13.300 He could get, I think he actually, I think the guy is legitimate.
01:03:17.460 I think he legitimately has a heart.
01:03:19.500 Yeah, I do too.
01:03:20.460 Joe, he sees that stuff and he's like, okay, that's taken out of context, but I watch it
01:03:24.860 and it's, it's uncomfortable.
01:03:26.020 I shouldn't have said it.
01:03:27.020 Shouldn't have said it.
01:03:27.680 Even in context.
01:03:28.880 That, I think that is a sincere feeling for him.
01:03:32.600 Maybe, right?
01:03:33.360 Nobody else is sincere, Joe.
01:03:35.940 Nobody else is sincere.
01:03:38.520 And implicit in all of this stuff from the government is the idea that you are too dumb to be able to
01:03:45.640 figure things out for yourself.
01:03:47.000 If you see this information, you might be influenced by it because you're too stupid.
01:03:51.660 What information?
01:03:52.580 I don't see information.
01:03:55.020 You're on radio.
01:03:56.140 How are you showing information?
01:03:58.160 Let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.
01:04:01.740 How did you go from information of something else to this?
01:04:05.020 I'm so confused.
01:04:06.960 Almost nothing about getting your house ready to put on the market is easy.
01:04:11.040 And then selling it, especially in some markets.
01:04:13.780 It's not as easy to get top dollar as you think.
01:04:18.860 You need somebody that really knows what they're doing.
01:04:23.540 Real estate agents I trust.
01:04:25.720 You know, they were the ones that said when I was trying to sell my home, it's, it's dated.
01:04:29.740 You're going to have to redo.
01:04:30.820 And I'm like, no, I don't want to redo.
01:04:33.400 They're like, you're not going to get the money you want.
01:04:35.320 Okay.
01:04:36.380 So we redid it.
01:04:37.620 And now I could sell it in a heartbeat for a lot more.
01:04:42.220 And it's like, nah, I'm not going to.
01:04:44.240 So I guess the real estate agents that I trusted gave me the right advice, but they lost out in the end because now I'm keeping it.
01:04:50.840 So I like it.
01:04:52.040 Anyway, realestateagentsitrust.com.

01:05:15.120 I'm censoring you.
01:05:15.560 Well, me?
01:05:16.040 You are what you are?
01:05:17.040 Yeah.
01:05:17.260 Just because I don't like you.
01:05:18.520 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:05:27.580 The founder of Bridgewater, Ray Dalio, it's a big hedge fund.
01:05:32.440 He came out last week and said the U.S. appears to be, I'm quoting, on a classic path towards some form of civil war amid the dangerous combination of large deficits, high taxes, inflation and gaps in wealth and values that lead to political polarization.
01:05:51.360 When that happens, at the same time as there are foreign powers that are becoming strong enough to challenge the leading world power that it is encountering, this civil war dynamic, it is especially a risky period.
01:06:06.020 That period, I believe, we are now in.
01:06:09.240 End quote.
01:06:09.660 Gosh, you know, it sounds like it sounds almost like we'll be at each other's throats and the socialists and the communists and the Islamists will all be in league.
01:06:23.000 By the way, speaking of Islamist, I think another hats off to Joe Biden, who released another 25 billion to the Iranians over the weekend.
01:06:34.500 I think that's great.
01:06:35.740 He just unfroze 25 billion dollars.
01:06:38.580 Because we were saying that we thought 30 billion was too much, too much, too much, too much.
01:06:42.220 And 25 billion is right in the sweet spot.
01:06:44.100 It is.
01:06:44.660 You know, it is.
01:06:45.580 Because I thought 20 billion was too little.
01:06:48.180 Yeah, right.
01:06:48.880 Exactly.
01:06:49.360 And 30 too much.
01:06:50.700 So he found.
01:06:52.060 When he nails it, we've got to give him credit.
01:06:53.320 We've got to give him credit.
01:06:54.140 25 billion was the right number to give to Iran.
01:06:56.160 Yeah, it was.
01:06:57.240 Over the weekend.
01:06:58.440 You're not going to find that anywhere.
01:06:59.620 Isn't that weird?
01:07:00.220 I'm not seeing that on the front page anywhere.
01:07:03.300 Anyway.
01:07:03.700 And then that guy, whoever he was, thank God they discredited him a long time ago, said that that'll be creating turmoil here in the United States.
01:07:15.540 And then then what happens?
01:07:17.400 Oh, foreign powers.
01:07:19.400 It empowers all of our enemies look at our weakness and say, now, go, go, go, go, go.
01:07:25.440 It's almost like Ray Dalio is saying that.
01:07:29.020 Ha.
01:07:30.860 So here's the thing.
01:07:32.480 He's right.
01:07:35.780 He follows it up.
01:07:36.940 The biggest question is how much the system will bend before it breaks.
01:07:40.760 History shows the biggest risk to democracies is that they produce such fragmented and antagonistic decision making that they are ineffective and disorderly, which leads to bad results in revolutions.
01:07:53.880 No, Ray.
01:07:55.000 That's world history.
01:07:56.600 That is the history of democracies.
01:08:00.280 We're a republic.
01:08:02.460 What has led to antagonistic decision making and fragmentation?
01:08:09.040 I'll tell you what it is.
01:08:10.760 And you know who also will tell you who it is?
01:08:13.780 John Adams and Thomas Jefferson around 1820 writing back and forth to each other saying, well, we tried.
01:08:20.920 You know, it's going to fail.
01:08:22.760 The other one said, yeah, but that's it's it's inevitable.
01:08:25.260 Yes, it's going to fail.
01:08:26.040 But in the end, the people will see what we were trying to do.
01:08:30.100 I know.
01:08:30.860 But we should have put more Deuteronomy into it.
01:08:33.380 What did he mean by that?
01:08:35.480 He was talking about stakes.
01:08:37.780 What is the problem?
01:08:40.340 Why do we have all of these crazy people in Washington, D.C.?
01:08:45.520 Let me rephrase the question.
01:08:47.740 Stu.
01:08:49.940 They're redistricting right now.
01:08:51.980 Uh huh.
01:08:52.960 Uh huh.
01:08:53.280 And and when they redistrict, do they do it like in Deuteronomy where Moses just said there's a block of, you know, 500 people.
01:09:03.220 And then when that block goes over 500, then we just split it.
01:09:08.240 No, they do not do that.
01:09:09.620 No.
01:09:09.920 In squares.
01:09:10.600 So everything's a giant square.
01:09:12.920 No.
01:09:13.320 How do they do redistricting?
01:09:14.980 It's called something.
01:09:17.280 Jerry Lewis.
01:09:18.340 No.
01:09:19.120 Oh, gerrymandering.
01:09:20.140 Yeah.
01:09:21.380 You know how your district snakes through?
01:09:24.580 It's because the parties are like, I need it to snake through this way because then I can lean it Democrat or Republican.
01:09:31.280 Stop it.
01:09:32.100 Because that's what gets extremes.
01:09:35.920 We all live next door to somebody that disagrees with us.
01:09:40.260 We might live with a whole group of people that I don't know where this is, but on one side of the street, they're all Democrats.
01:09:47.400 And the other side of the street, they're all Republicans.
01:09:50.300 And at the end of the street, because it's a cul-de-sac, it's all independents.
01:09:55.500 And so one party or the other says, I'm going to just take this part of the street and you're going to have that part of the street.
01:10:02.100 No.
01:10:03.940 We get extremes because of that.
01:10:08.420 Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye.
01:10:10.720 That's not democracy.
01:10:12.580 That's gerrymandering.
01:10:15.300 That's hijacking a republic, Ray.
01:10:18.920 That's what it is.
01:10:21.000 He also said there's a loss of truth in the public domain.
01:10:25.700 No.
01:10:27.700 No, a loss.
01:10:28.640 And that's making some people too afraid to speak up.
01:10:32.100 No.
01:10:34.580 No.
01:10:35.860 I've not heard that.
01:10:38.520 Now, gee, who's doing that?
01:10:41.260 Who's doing that?
01:10:42.160 Because I remember when Tipper Gore was coming out, you know, about rap songs that she thought were too spicy.
01:10:49.420 You know, that was a Democrat, but was trying to appeal to the religious, you know, movement at the time.
01:10:58.740 And that was saying, you know, we got to take all this crap off the streets.
01:11:02.100 No, just tell your kids not to listen to it.
01:11:04.800 How about we spend more time with our kids?
01:11:06.800 How about that?
01:11:08.360 We don't silence people.
01:11:10.680 So it was a religious side that was doing it back then.
01:11:13.280 Which side is it now?
01:11:14.400 Do I can't?
01:11:15.480 I mean, because I know there was a big outcry of people who were like trying to silence, you know, rappers and stuff because they were saying bad sexual things.
01:11:24.360 That's not happening anymore.
01:11:27.840 Oh, it's just political things that have to be.
01:11:30.260 Oh, and that's the left this time.
01:11:32.020 Isn't that weird?
01:11:32.500 Wrong then from the right.
01:11:34.660 Wrong now from the left.
01:11:36.420 Was Tipper Gore the right?
01:11:38.500 No, Tipper Gore was.
01:11:39.960 Okay, I just want to make sure I understand this.
01:11:41.480 The Gores don't believe anything.
01:11:43.780 They don't believe anything.
01:11:46.620 That was just purely a political move, period.
01:11:50.180 So we're headed for civil war unless there's a great awakening.
01:11:56.920 And I don't mean a great awokening.
01:11:59.620 Don't be woke.
01:12:01.060 Be awake.
01:12:02.320 Stay awake.
01:12:04.120 Stay awake.
01:12:05.640 And what that means is you see the direction everybody's headed?
01:12:10.540 There's a cliff.
01:12:12.120 Hear the people?
01:12:12.980 Listen.
01:12:13.320 Listen carefully.
01:12:13.840 It's a little like the coyote and and Roadrunner.
01:12:24.740 You know, you're just you're seeing a whole bunch, thousands of little as people make impact on the bottom of the cliff.
01:12:32.540 Don't go over the cliff.
01:12:34.440 What does that mean?
01:12:35.720 Don't say the things that you don't mean.
01:12:38.280 Don't tolerate the things that you know are wrong.
01:12:42.420 Just get up and leave.
01:12:44.180 You know what?
01:12:46.080 Nothing against anybody here.
01:12:48.180 But you guys are talking a bunch of gobbledygook and it's not it's not true.
01:12:52.300 None of this is true.
01:12:53.900 How dare you say a man can't have a baby?
01:12:57.100 Hmm.
01:12:57.260 I suppose you could implant it and then I don't know, take it out and say he had a baby, but that's not having a baby, man.
01:13:09.500 OK, how dare you say that?
01:13:12.280 Yeah.
01:13:12.920 Yeah.
01:13:13.220 I think we have to agree on some basic level of truth because this ain't working.
01:13:21.260 Part of some of your old advice was ringing through my head this weekend when I was looking at some of the stories about the Canadian truckers and and there's been this attack from the media.
01:13:32.580 Oh, there we saw one Nazi flag at one rally.
01:13:35.460 And, you know, there's that's sort of the typical way they go.
01:13:37.820 So what they're saying now, and I obviously am not up in Canada.
01:13:41.240 I haven't seen this for myself, but the media is reporting that the truckers now are doing things like, you know, blocking streets and beeping their horns in the overnights and neighborhoods to wake people up.
01:13:54.780 And if that's true, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
01:13:59.980 I don't believe that's right because you don't want to lose the people.
01:14:05.420 Yeah.
01:14:05.920 Right.
01:14:06.160 Yes.
01:14:07.480 This has always been something we've talked about this with left wing groups over and over again.
01:14:10.680 They'll block traffic.
01:14:12.200 They'll make your life miserable.
01:14:14.040 There is.
01:14:14.320 I remember Pat always talks about this protest in Houston when he was down there where the people, the trash collectors unions jumped, dumped a bunch of trash in the middle of busy intersections to show how important they were and just pissed everybody off.
01:14:26.960 Yeah.
01:14:27.360 Right.
01:14:27.500 Like ruining people's lives usually doesn't bring them to your side.
01:14:31.640 Well, no, but see, that's the tactic of the left now bringing them.
01:14:35.820 They used to because of Martin Luther King.
01:14:38.020 They used to bring people along.
01:14:40.160 Okay.
01:14:40.640 Yeah, I believe in that.
01:14:41.760 But now what they're asking for is against human nature.
01:14:45.880 It's against human nature.
01:14:47.940 So now you just have to do it by force.
01:14:52.760 First, it's nudge way past that.
01:14:55.740 Then it's shove.
01:14:58.080 We're at the end of that.
01:14:59.560 And the next one is shoot.
01:15:00.600 You're going to do it or else.
01:15:03.000 And I would say that they're kind of doing that, except it's with firings.
01:15:06.640 Now you're just out.
01:15:08.680 You're going to lose your job.
01:15:10.040 The next the next level is I'm going to physically take a gun and shoot you.
01:15:15.600 Or put you in prison or put you in prison.
01:15:18.340 I mean, put you in prison or a little camp.
01:15:20.540 And what happens in camps?
01:15:22.380 Usually you're not making bracelets.
01:15:27.420 That's where we are, gang.
01:15:30.340 You know, you know what rang through my head was the first they came.
01:15:35.460 Who was it?
01:15:36.300 It wasn't the first they came for the Jews.
01:15:39.180 No, no, no.
01:15:40.520 First they came for the communists.
01:15:43.980 Because remember, they're fascists.
01:15:45.760 First they came for the communists.
01:15:47.560 And I didn't say anything because I wasn't a communist.
01:15:52.840 I want you to know, it started with politics.
01:15:57.800 First they came for the conservatives.
01:16:00.200 And I wasn't a conservative, so I didn't say anything.
01:16:04.200 We are at the point with Joe Rogan.
01:16:06.820 If they take Joe Rogan down, our voice will be silenced.
01:16:13.180 It will be silenced.
01:16:16.040 Joe Rogan is a message.
01:16:19.760 It's not just about taking out Joe Rogan.
01:16:22.320 It is a message to anyone who carries shows like ours on any platform.
01:16:28.620 You'll be gone.
01:16:29.840 By the way, you should know.

01:16:46.040 Right now, you're getting it from Apple or wherever you get your podcast.
01:16:52.420 There's going to come a time where you don't have that luxury anymore.
01:16:56.900 You will have to specify.
01:16:58.000 I saw somebody.
01:16:59.120 Yeah, and they're going to track who's doing it.
01:17:01.760 They already are.
01:17:03.160 In their own words, you're the infected.
01:17:08.900 We are the carrier of the disease.
01:17:11.320 This is how they explain it.
01:17:13.180 We are the carrier of the disease, a thought that they don't like.
01:17:17.820 We've infected you.
01:17:19.540 So, we're not only being monitored by big tech, but you are being monitored.
01:17:26.520 And you can't hide it.
01:17:28.460 You're being monitored.
01:17:30.080 And those that follow you or your friends are also being monitored to see how far the infection spreads.
01:17:39.700 If you think that's hyperbole, look the quote up.
01:17:46.640 That's from big tech.
01:17:50.260 That's how they view you.
01:17:52.340 This is the critical moment.
01:18:00.660 And I will tell you that the left wants violence.
01:18:05.760 I can guarantee you if the Republicans sweep and they take control of the House and the Senate, there will be violence on the streets.
01:18:15.720 There will be the media saying this was a stolen election.
01:18:19.360 They'll find it all credible this time.
01:18:22.340 There will be people whipping people up.
01:18:25.380 God forbid the Democrats, and I mean Democrats, not left, that the Democrats are awake enough to go, that ain't us.
01:18:35.480 That's this small little group doing this.
01:18:39.880 But they want violence, make no mistake.
01:18:43.260 Because that's what they do.
01:18:46.080 They want to shoot and stop shoving.
01:18:48.780 They want to shoot.
01:18:49.760 No violence.
01:18:53.700 Love one another.
01:18:55.400 Truckers, if that story is true, and I don't think it is, if that story is true, no horn honking at night.
01:19:01.960 Don't do it.
01:19:02.820 Don't do it.
01:19:03.700 You need people on your side.
01:19:05.920 Oh, my gosh.
01:19:12.480 Sorry.
01:19:13.100 Just what went through my mind was, how long is that going to last?
01:19:18.280 Meaning, me being able to say those things to you.
01:19:21.020 If you're a member of the audience, pretty good.
01:19:25.480 Pretty good chance you're a charitable person.
01:19:28.180 And we have seen proof of that over and over and over again.
01:19:32.300 And while I know that you can trust the charities that I associate with, the sad truth is, fake charities are becoming more and more prevalent.
01:19:40.740 And they're an easy way for cyber criminals to steal your money and your identity.

01:20:33.700 Miss a day, miss a lot.
01:20:35.640 Visit BlazeTV.com today and never miss a moment of truth.
01:20:47.700 You know, I'm reading this from Ray Dalio from Bridgewater.
01:21:02.640 And he said that we are on a classic path towards some sort of civil war.
01:21:09.060 And we are.
01:21:10.460 And we are.
01:21:11.000 But what he points out, he says, this is why he believes we are headed towards a civil war in America.
01:21:19.600 And he's not wrong, but I'm not sure he's right in his definitions of things.
01:21:29.280 And it's this that concerns me so much.
01:21:33.600 It is the fact that we are all walking around like we did on September 11th.
01:21:39.820 We all love America.
01:21:41.200 We all love America.
01:21:42.760 I mean, don't you love the firemen and the police policemen?
01:21:44.860 We all love America.
01:21:46.180 And then, like, two years later, we were like, wait a minute.
01:21:50.140 Wait a minute.
01:21:50.680 What?
01:21:51.660 You don't think this, this, and this?
01:21:55.400 We all thought we thought alike.
01:21:57.040 And we don't.
01:21:57.880 So maybe it's time to define some parameters of what we're fighting for.
01:22:04.580 We'll do that next.
01:22:27.880 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment
01:22:57.000 and enlightenment.
01:22:58.960 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:23:04.280 Now, more than ever before, it is not irrational or uncommon to say,
01:23:10.420 I think we're headed into a civil war of some sort.
01:23:15.080 You know, hey, let's split apart before it gets to war.
01:23:18.920 Listen, you pick the states.
01:23:21.260 We'll pick our states.
01:23:22.860 Whatever.
01:23:24.080 Let's do that.
01:23:25.200 Ray Dalio from Bridgewater, he said last week, quote,
01:23:32.600 we are on the classic path towards some sort of civil war amid a dangerous
01:23:36.720 combination of large deficits, high taxes, inflation, and gaps in wealth
01:23:42.020 and values that lead to political polarization.
01:23:48.480 Says this is the period that he thinks we're in right now.
01:23:51.680 But he lists a few things, and I think we have to define who we are really clearly
01:23:58.960 and what we're for.
01:24:01.480 We do that in 60 seconds.
01:24:07.000 There comes a day when you wake up in the morning, stare at your bed and think to yourself,
01:24:10.980 I think I'm doing this whole sleeping thing wrong.
01:24:13.160 You know, that's the day that maybe you will upgrade your pillows, your sheets, your whole sleeping situation.
01:24:20.340 I'm somebody who tests things.
01:24:22.960 You know, I'm stubborn.
01:24:25.460 And so I've been saying on the air and I was doing commercial for my pillow and I thought, you know what?
01:24:29.320 I want to make sure that it is the pillow that is giving me such great sleep.
01:24:32.980 And so this weekend, Friday and Saturday, I just told Stu, did I not tell you I didn't get any sleep this weekend?
01:24:38.960 You did.
01:24:39.500 I switched pillows.
01:24:41.060 And I went back to my old pillow and I put my pillow on kind of, you know, like a body pillow.
01:24:46.400 I woke up with a headache both days.
01:24:49.880 So last night I slept with my pillow.
01:24:54.140 No headache.
01:24:55.440 I wonder if they're connected, dummy.
01:24:58.060 So, yes, I can testify to you.
01:25:01.160 They make a huge difference.

01:25:22.760 Oh, my gosh.
01:25:23.900 So here's Ray Dalio.
01:25:25.680 He said last week, U.S. appears to be on a classic path toward some sort of civil war amid dangerous combination of large deficits, high taxes, inflation, gaps, and wealth and values.
01:25:36.900 When all of that happens at the same time, there are foreign powers that are becoming strong enough to challenge the leading world power that is encountering this civil dynamic.
01:25:46.820 It is especially a risky period.
01:25:49.240 He says both the left and the right are fighting to win at all costs, eliminating moderates and the ability to compromise as a result.
01:26:00.240 He said there's also a loss of truth in the public domain.
01:26:03.580 No.
01:26:04.640 Making some people too afraid to speak up.
01:26:08.240 The biggest question is how much the system will bend before it breaks.
01:26:13.000 Now, let me give you some other things that he said because this is what he says is really leading to it.
01:26:17.660 I agree with almost everything he just said there.
01:26:21.300 We are headed towards something, and I prefer to think it's the Great Awakening.
01:26:27.400 He says the current financial conditions and irreconcilable differences in desires and values are consistent with the ingredients leading to some form of civil war.
01:26:37.680 He's right.
01:26:39.480 This is why I've been telling you, you've got to shore your finances up, get out of debt, make sure that you're fine.
01:26:45.440 You want to be a blessing, not part of the problem, because people are going to be hungry.
01:26:51.580 It's why we started Mercury One.
01:26:54.140 I just had a meeting two weeks ago, or was it last week, with the Mercury One.
01:26:58.320 And I said, this year, we have to be all about helping people help themselves.
01:27:06.660 We have to find out where real pain points are and go in and help people, because we have to model that.
01:27:14.500 All of us do.
01:27:15.800 He says, not knowing what is true because of distortions in the media and propaganda increases, and people become more polarized, emotional, and politically motivated.
01:27:27.240 So, he's got distortions in the media.
01:27:30.960 He's right.
01:27:32.380 But there also will be distortions in social media as well from our side, or people purporting to be on our side.
01:27:43.960 For instance, let me just say this about The Great Reset.
01:27:47.280 By the way, available now on audiobook, and it's really good.
01:27:52.900 I know I was there, but I read it, and it's really, really good.
01:27:58.100 Anyway, you can get it at Kindle or Audible or wherever you get your books on audio.
01:28:04.960 So, the propaganda can come, for instance, like on our side with The Great Reset.
01:28:13.460 There are going to be people, some of them intentionally, others just don't know, that will buy into conspiracy theories, and then you start blurring the truth.
01:28:26.440 It's very important that you don't add on.
01:28:30.080 Just the stuff you know, the stuff like in our book that is all footnoted, you have to have the proof.
01:28:38.100 Don't speak out beyond what you know to be true.
01:28:44.700 Don't trust anyone.
01:28:46.940 Trust your own ability to find the truth.
01:28:50.480 Somebody says it, go check.
01:28:52.480 Somebody says it, where'd they get that?
01:28:55.560 Go check.
01:28:57.220 Go find that source.
01:28:58.660 Where did they get that?
01:29:00.480 We can't be like the left, because that's what they've taught us in history books.
01:29:04.660 They don't ever quote the people anymore.
01:29:06.960 They don't quote the people that knew the people.
01:29:10.180 They quote scholars that lived hundreds of years later that claim they know something different than the people who lived in that time.
01:29:23.380 When causes that people are passionately behind are more important to them than the system for making decisions, the system is in jeopardy.
01:29:31.540 Now, let me ask you both.
01:29:33.880 The media and the propaganda increases.
01:29:36.000 People become more polarized, emotional, and politically motivated.
01:29:39.440 Which group has set out to do that intentionally?
01:29:44.940 Do you remember Saul Alinsky?
01:29:47.640 That is what they're doing.
01:29:49.820 That is what they're doing to Joe Rogan right now.
01:29:52.460 That's what they do to everyone.
01:29:53.920 They polarize them.
01:29:56.980 And it becomes emotional.
01:29:59.320 Joe Rogan is not a racist.
01:30:02.120 He's not a racist.
01:30:04.020 You're not a racist.
01:30:05.780 Well, I don't know.
01:30:06.460 I mean, this could spill out into anybody's living room.
01:30:09.420 But most likely, you're not a racist.
01:30:12.200 America.
01:30:12.780 Say this out loud with me right now.
01:30:14.420 I don't care where you are.
01:30:15.880 America is good and not racist.
01:30:19.980 Say it.
01:30:20.860 America is good and not racist.
01:30:26.600 You got to start telling yourself the truth.
01:30:30.280 Because right now, to say America, America is a good place.
01:30:37.440 Sometimes, you know, if you're not in a red state, you're kind of like, you know, America's, you know, it's not.
01:30:42.860 I mean, it's I mean, it's not bad.
01:30:45.440 No.
01:30:46.560 State it.
01:30:48.000 Exceptional.
01:30:49.160 Exceptionalism.
01:30:50.000 Exceptional.
01:30:51.420 When winning becomes the only thing that matters, unethical fighting becomes progressively more forceful in self-reinforcing ways.
01:30:59.560 You mean the ends justify the means?
01:31:02.200 They never do.
01:31:03.860 They never do.
01:31:06.300 And what is our cause?
01:31:08.600 When causes that people are passionately behind are more important to them than the system for making decisions, the system is in jeopardy.
01:31:17.240 Well, I'm telling you right now, the system is in jeopardy because of causes that people are passionately behind that is more important to them than the system outlined in the Constitution.
01:31:29.560 What are we fighting for?
01:31:32.540 I am fighting for a return to order.
01:31:36.840 I am not any return to order.
01:31:39.940 A return to constitutional order.
01:31:42.740 One where the Bill of Rights is fully understood and embraced and enforced.
01:31:51.520 If winning becomes more important than the Constitution, we've already lost.
01:31:59.240 Now, listen to this.
01:32:01.580 He goes on to say, in 2022 elections, we will see losses by moderates and gains by extremists and populists.
01:32:12.540 Okay.
01:32:13.360 Let's go over that.
01:32:14.380 In the elections, we will see losses by moderates.
01:32:18.380 May I say no, unless they're globalists.
01:32:23.740 If they're globalists, yeah, you are.
01:32:28.280 But if there's somebody that's standing up, this is not an extremist position, for the Bill of Rights, for the three branches of this government, for reasonable spending,
01:32:41.480 and they're not for some globalist agenda, then you know what?
01:32:49.220 They're probably not going to lose because that's where a lot of people are.
01:32:53.960 When you say gains by extremists, quote, or extremists slash populists, wait a minute.
01:33:00.980 Who are the extremists?
01:33:02.340 And I know the right is being made to look like extremists.
01:33:06.100 That's what they call us.
01:33:07.140 We're for the Constitution.
01:33:08.760 If that makes me an extremist that says more about you than me, I'm not the extremist.
01:33:16.420 I'm the one that agrees with our founders.
01:33:18.980 I'm the one that agrees with Abraham Lincoln.
01:33:24.300 Do you?
01:33:27.380 So make sure the extremists are clearly defined and populist.
01:33:32.740 I don't like populism because it can imply blind, jingoistic movement.
01:33:43.900 Okay?
01:33:44.420 It can, populist, just take whatever's popular and just feed on that and go, well, that's not who I am.
01:33:53.960 What I am is a constitutionalist who many of the things that we talk about are growing in popularity.
01:34:02.960 That doesn't make us a populist.
01:34:05.680 Populists, pure populist that has nothing underneath.
01:34:10.680 They're not building a framework.
01:34:12.700 It's just whatever's popular.
01:34:14.760 That's a problem.
01:34:15.760 A nationalist is a problem, but not somebody who believes in the Constitution, because then the government isn't involved.
01:34:26.520 And pride in your nation, there is nothing wrong with that.
01:34:30.320 As long as you're like the old Texans that are always like, you know, that's a fine place to, New York?
01:34:36.600 Well, I hear a lot of great things about that.
01:34:39.420 Of course, not Texas, but I hear a lot of great things about that.
01:34:42.780 Okay?
01:34:44.260 They are very proud of their state.
01:34:47.400 They should be.
01:34:49.240 It's a great place to be and a great place to be from.
01:34:53.460 Be proud of it.
01:34:55.160 That's different than, yeah, I'm from Texas.
01:34:58.540 I'd like to destroy and absorb New York.
01:35:03.000 Because we'd fix it.
01:35:05.260 That's nationalism.
01:35:06.600 That's a problem.
01:35:10.040 He says,
01:35:11.700 We will see the election of extremists and extreme populists.
01:35:19.080 They will win because each side wants fighters not to compromise and moderates will also choose not to run.
01:35:26.100 Okay, so you have to define the moderates again.
01:35:30.080 And no, my theme song, you know, my theme song is like, we're the key.
01:35:35.220 We're the key.
01:35:36.140 It's always been.
01:35:37.040 We're in this together.
01:35:38.320 Let's reach out.
01:35:39.880 Let's be united.
01:35:41.520 But there comes a point where you can't be united anymore because we don't have the same principles anymore.
01:35:49.980 We don't have the same values anymore.
01:35:53.240 You know, I value hard work.
01:35:57.700 And not just, not just because it's paid off, but because follow the science.
01:36:04.660 Science has even proven that work adds to a man and woman's self-esteem.
01:36:13.860 One of the things we're facing that nobody wants to talk about is the fourth industrial revolution.
01:36:21.360 When you lose your job and you're not able to find a job, but the government or whomever, I'd like to be paid by big tech.
01:36:30.100 I have a whole theory on this one.
01:36:33.180 I'd like to explain.
01:36:34.120 I think I could get everybody on this policy.
01:36:35.880 But you want, you want somebody to pay you because you can't find a job.
01:36:43.440 Here's the problem.
01:36:44.880 If you put 40% of the population on basic minimum income, where do they find meaning?
01:36:52.860 Meaning, where do they find meaning?
01:36:57.280 I'm going to do a series of shows on this program just on that problem.
01:37:03.160 Because we have to, we have to know where do we get meaning?
01:37:10.600 The Supreme Court will make decisions on contentious issues that people are willing to fight over.
01:37:16.040 There's a big risk that each side will view the decisions as unfairly made by the other side and not accept them, which leads to tests of power.
01:37:25.280 You know, can you think of a time when the Republicans went and fought?
01:37:31.980 I mean, I firmly believe that abortion is murder.
01:37:39.120 But I don't go out with guns and shoot abortion doctors.
01:37:45.220 I think that's bad.
01:37:47.240 To quote Joe Biden, don't do that.
01:37:51.480 Here's the deal.
01:37:53.880 Very few people think that's right.
01:37:58.240 Okay?
01:38:01.060 Can you think of things beside the Dred Scott decision?
01:38:08.240 When did conservatives go out and say, well, at least in the modern era, I can't think of one.
01:38:15.220 Civil rights, maybe, maybe.
01:38:22.380 But that was Democratic-led.
01:38:25.120 Because remember, all the Democrats, they all moved, even though not one, not one, look it up, not one Democrat switched sides.
01:38:34.320 That's what everybody believes.
01:38:35.600 All the Democrats, the racist Democrats, they went to the Republican Party.
01:38:38.840 No, they didn't.
01:38:39.560 No, they didn't.
01:38:39.880 They stayed right there.
01:38:40.700 But different story.
01:38:41.680 You mean, is it just related to Supreme Court?
01:38:44.640 Yeah.
01:38:44.960 Just because it says Supreme Court will make decisions on contentious issues that people are willing to fight over.
01:38:49.980 The only one I can think of is Dred Scott.
01:38:53.160 We're not doing it.
01:38:54.940 The left does that all the time.
01:38:57.480 We're not doing it.
01:38:58.820 And that's why we've got to chase these people.
01:39:01.620 When are we going to stop listening to these people?
01:39:04.240 And then when they get their way, and the other half is, you know, like, that's murder.
01:39:09.040 Well, it's settled law.
01:39:10.320 Yeah.
01:39:10.720 Then it's settled law.
01:39:12.060 Right.
01:39:12.340 Of course.
01:39:13.020 I can't think of maybe, you know, that doesn't mean it hasn't happened.
01:39:16.280 I just can't think of one.
01:39:18.260 So those are the things that he says that we're missing.
01:39:23.960 Except he's missing the biggest one.
01:39:27.960 I'll give it to you in 60 seconds.
01:39:32.400 Debra writes in about her experience with Rough Green.
01:39:34.700 She says, I recently adopted an older German shepherd named Ava.
01:39:38.080 By the way, Tanya said, we're not ever going to get a new dog.
01:39:42.660 When Uno passes, this is it.
01:39:45.340 I can't do another dog.
01:39:48.380 Okay, sweetheart.
01:39:49.640 And I kept looking at the kids.
01:39:51.660 Mom's going to get another dog.
01:39:54.040 She came to me this weekend.
01:39:56.560 I've called the people that we buy our dogs from, and they're looking.
01:40:00.720 Oh, what?
01:40:01.700 Why would you call?
01:40:02.560 I'm getting the same thing right now for my wife.
01:40:04.520 Oh, we need a new dog.
01:40:05.980 I mean, Miles is old, and Piper is our golden retriever, and she needs someone to play with.
01:40:14.020 And so I'm getting constant.
01:40:15.440 Look at this picture.
01:40:16.700 I talked to this person.
01:40:18.960 There's more and more of these things coming every day.
01:40:20.880 As if we don't already have a zoo in the house.
01:40:22.900 You do.
01:40:23.840 It's unbelievable.
01:40:24.300 We have to talk about that at some point, Stu.
01:40:26.260 Please.
01:40:26.880 Because it's gone too far.
01:40:28.680 I think an intervention is due.
01:40:30.520 Anyway, Rough Greens.
01:40:33.040 I am feeding Uno Rough Greens on top of his, you know, kibble food.
01:40:37.580 You put that on top.
01:40:38.960 He loves it.
01:40:40.060 I have seen a difference in Uno.
01:40:42.580 He is so funny.
01:40:44.620 I mean, it's not like he's a stand-up, but he is so funny now.
01:40:47.920 The way he acts and plays.
01:40:50.580 He's like a puppy most days.
01:40:53.140 He's almost 11.

01:41:28.300 So, what is it that we're missing?
01:41:30.440 I know I'm beating, you know, a dead horse.
01:41:34.660 And I don't know why it always has to be a dead horse.
01:41:36.960 I like horses.
01:41:39.140 But I know I'm beating a dead horse here because you get it.
01:41:44.400 But it's the Constitution.
01:41:46.820 I go back to our 9-12 project.
01:41:49.580 Our 9-12 project.
01:41:50.720 What was it?
01:41:51.740 It was all about values and principles.
01:41:54.820 And I told you at the time, I love the Tea Party, love what it stands for.
01:41:59.460 But the 9-12 project was different because we have to be values and principles.
01:42:04.840 If we're going to save our country, we have to be about those things that work.
01:42:11.100 And those traditional values, and I don't mean traditional like, they come from the Republican Party.
01:42:18.580 I mean, the things that work historically.
01:42:23.240 Let's follow the science.
01:42:25.120 Historically, what leads to stable countries, stable civilizations?
01:42:32.020 One is family.
01:42:35.120 Reinforce the family.
01:42:37.680 Do everything you can to support the family.
01:42:39.980 That's just one.
01:42:43.080 If we just fix that one, look at what the left is doing.
01:42:47.040 You don't have a right to even know what your children are being taught.
01:42:51.120 That's not, that's not, that's saying the parents are terrorists.
01:42:56.620 How do you, crazy?
01:42:58.640 That's not strengthening the family.
01:43:01.400 If we can't get back to an unum that was expressed in our Bill of Rights,
01:43:06.440 those first 10, and I would contend all of them,
01:43:11.740 but let's concentrate on the first 10, shall we?
01:43:15.280 If we can't agree on those basic things,
01:43:18.760 we will never come together.
01:43:21.040 Because those are the things that built us and made us a beacon for the rest of the world.
01:43:28.780 Let's, what do you say?
01:43:29.940 Turn on our light.
01:43:31.040 E.T., turn on your heart light.
01:43:32.800 Let's do it.
01:43:33.980 What?
01:43:34.280 You need the Constitution to do that?
01:43:36.780 You're not going to set it on fire, because that's not a good idea.
01:43:40.160 E.T., are you a radical extremist?

01:43:45.420 American Financing, NMLS 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
01:43:51.700 With so much inflation and market volatility,
01:43:54.020 the Fed believes it has no choice but to hike up interest rates,
01:43:57.620 the first of which looks like it's coming in March.
01:44:00.300 Maybe, I say maybe, because they are also learning right now,
01:44:05.940 oh, this is very unstable.
01:44:10.080 Huh, that might kill the economy.
01:44:12.940 Hmm.
01:44:13.320 Also, their good friends at BlackRock are against it.
01:44:18.020 They say just give money in the economy to the people who really need it,
01:44:23.200 like the giant corporations.

01:45:17.460 Oh, yeah.
01:45:19.300 The original OG.
01:45:21.060 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:45:22.560 We're glad you're here.
01:45:25.080 You're not bragging about being censored and targeted.
01:45:27.440 That's right, yeah.
01:45:28.140 Nice.
01:45:28.880 I'm the OG.
01:45:31.100 I'm the OG.
01:45:31.800 I found that out from my staff earlier this morning.
01:45:34.200 Glenn, you're the OG.
01:45:35.100 And I said, what the hell does that even mean?
01:45:38.660 You know, I was just trying to pretend that I wasn't, you know, cool.
01:45:42.440 Right, because you usually think about it as far as your rap career.
01:45:46.520 Exactly right.
01:45:47.680 You know, it's a part of your history.
01:45:49.480 I'm like, why are you talking about my rap career, dog?
01:45:53.560 By the way, Cheryl Atkinson also wrote a book where she kind of identified you as the OG
01:45:59.780 of the, what we're talking about here is this targeted, political, well-funded movement
01:46:06.300 to get someone thrown off the air.
01:46:07.980 Now, look, there have been people who have been thrown off the air before, but you were
01:46:11.320 really targeted with this back before.
01:46:14.300 She makes a very good case that this new strain of this is huge.
01:46:18.620 But they try, they've been trying all kinds of things, and it works sometimes, this wave
01:46:23.440 after wave after wave from different bogus organizations is a way to just discredit and overwhelm the
01:46:31.720 population.
01:46:32.340 So, their job was get me fired.
01:46:36.160 I worked for Fox, so I wasn't fired.
01:46:39.260 And discredit me.
01:46:41.400 And for about half the country, I was discredited.
01:46:45.900 And that's really, they'll take that.
01:46:48.440 I mean, they want you destroyed.
01:46:50.480 Don't get me wrong.
01:46:51.780 We were just talking, you know, off the air about how we are headed to this place where
01:46:57.780 we can't even talk to each other because one side, they really do, they will beat you
01:47:03.720 to death if you don't agree.
01:47:06.960 No, it's true.
01:47:07.920 And you look back at, I mean, this has been history, I guess, as well.
01:47:11.280 But part of the story here with Joe Rogan is not about Joe Rogan.
01:47:16.320 It's about two different sides of this.
01:47:18.980 One, telling Spotify that if you, let's just say Spotify is behind the scenes and they're
01:47:26.120 saying, you know, like, what if we, we've got Joe Rogan, we've got, you know, Barack
01:47:29.700 Obama.
01:47:30.500 Imagine if we could get some big conservative hosts to come over and we can pay them a bunch
01:47:34.740 of money too and we can have all sides of this and we can, we can, we can have.
01:47:38.280 I tell you, my agent suggested I'm in contract negotiations and I'm either going to do it with
01:47:45.060 the company I'm with or not do it, you know, and just go off on my own.
01:47:50.160 But they said, we should go to Spotify.
01:47:52.320 You know what my response was?
01:47:56.960 You're cute.
01:47:57.900 Yeah.
01:47:58.220 You are cute.
01:47:59.340 But like in a regular market that was functioning without political hassles, this would be a
01:48:06.580 totally plausible thing, right?
01:48:08.060 Like they're, they're spending lots of money to acquire content just like Netflix was and
01:48:12.660 all these other places.
01:48:13.680 And so they could bring all the biggest podcasters over and have all the best podcasters.
01:48:18.140 That would be great.
01:48:18.840 Exclusively on their platform.
01:48:20.000 It's right.
01:48:20.600 It's almost like what iHeart does.
01:48:22.940 They have, they have lefties.
01:48:24.600 Yep.
01:48:24.740 And they have no fear.
01:48:26.040 They don't, they, yeah, because they've gone through it with Rush Limbaugh.
01:48:29.060 So they're like, you know what?
01:48:30.380 Go pound sand.
01:48:31.000 They're the one company on earth that seems to understand free speech these days.
01:48:34.380 That's it.
01:48:34.680 But like, you know, Spotify is, part of this is the left-wing political movements that
01:48:42.140 are behind all of this telling Spotify, you better not hire that next person.
01:48:47.080 Yep.
01:48:47.460 Because it's going to be even worse for you next time.
01:48:49.320 Yep.
01:48:49.640 So the people, the executives, when someone brings up, hey, we should bring in this, name
01:48:54.580 the right-wing personality, everyone in the Spotify meetings is going to say, oh God,
01:48:58.420 remember what happened with Rogan?
01:48:59.380 I don't want any part of that.
01:49:00.760 Forget it.
01:49:01.580 I don't want, I don't want that on our platform.
01:49:03.500 It's going to be too much of a hassle.
01:49:04.700 So that's part one.
01:49:05.720 And part two is everyone who has some level of heterodox opinion, someone who's out of
01:49:12.260 line with the narrative, when they think to themselves, you know, I don't know, this
01:49:17.940 thing that is, you know, mainstream media approved and left-wing approved doesn't seem right
01:49:22.800 to me, I should speak out against it, they'll think to themselves, yeah, maybe I shouldn't
01:49:28.080 because I don't want to get Rogan'd.
01:49:29.680 I don't want to get attacked.
01:49:31.000 I don't want to have those.
01:49:31.800 So the personalities themselves will actually censor themselves before they even say anything.
01:49:38.580 You know, what's amazing is they have become the Inquisition.
01:49:41.920 What was the thought of the Inquisition?
01:49:44.920 The thought was not to bring Jesus into people's lives, but to get rid of political enemies.
01:49:51.480 And then everybody became a political enemy.
01:49:56.320 And people would not say anything about the church that was negative.
01:50:01.400 They would, by rote, say, because they didn't want to go to the RAC.
01:50:05.800 That's what this is.
01:50:07.340 This is just, there's no RAC.
01:50:09.580 But they're doing, they are publicly torturing individuals that they don't like.
01:50:16.100 Humiliation, disgrace, and no forgiveness.
01:50:21.480 Now, you go Inquisition.
01:50:23.140 I mean, I've heard too many Hitler biographies to not go to the Nazis.
01:50:27.240 And I know everyone always appreciates a good Nazi comparison.
01:50:31.180 I can always expect one from you.
01:50:32.940 Yeah, I know.
01:50:33.260 And obviously, like, Joe Rogan leaving Spotify is not comparable directly to the Holocaust or anything like that.
01:50:40.660 We all understand this.
01:50:42.400 Hold it, hold it, not to the Holocaust, but guests who lost their broadcasting job, in fact, were cut off in the middle of the speech the day the Chancellor became the Fuhrer.
01:50:58.340 Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
01:51:04.560 That's not a huge surprise.
01:51:06.660 And so, one of the things you may remember from your history when the Nazis were coming to power, again, at the beginning, and these are long roads, you don't want to take steps down those roads.
01:51:16.720 But they would, when the Nazis would beat somebody up in the street, the SS or the SA would beat someone up in the street in full public view of everyone surrounding, they weren't doing that because of that person, per se.
01:51:33.060 Correct.
01:51:33.280 And their plan was never to beat up every single person that ever said anything bad about them.
01:51:39.540 The plan was to beat the person up in the streets in full view of everyone else so they'd all know not to say something next time.
01:51:48.620 There would always be somebody who would have that reminder, oh my gosh, remember when that guy, we saw that guy get beat up in the streets?
01:51:55.580 Just shut up.
01:51:56.500 Just don't say anything.
01:51:57.620 Whatever you do, don't show any opposition.
01:52:01.000 Show fealty.
01:52:01.680 Because even though you don't mean it, at least you won't get your head handed to you on the sidewalk.
01:52:10.300 And that sort of tactic is present here.
01:52:14.000 Where they are going after Rogan, not just for Rogan, not even just for conservatives.
01:52:19.500 It's the liberal Barry Weiss type who decides she feels a little differently about X, Y, and Z, so she won't say it next time.
01:52:29.860 And that's why Barry Weiss left the New York Times, partially, because she saw the direction this was going in.
01:52:38.100 But so many people have gone to Substack because of these things.
01:52:41.280 And, you know, I should say Substack seems to be one other company that seems to have some approval of free speech these days.
01:52:48.000 But there's very few of them.
01:52:49.540 So here's the thing.
01:52:51.080 This is why I have a problem with The Rock.
01:52:53.640 The Rock came out and he's like, I'm good friends with him.
01:52:56.180 I love him.
01:52:56.660 We're going to have some tequila sometimes.
01:52:58.780 Promoting his tequila.
01:52:59.980 Oh, on Rogan.
01:53:01.080 On Rogan.
01:53:01.640 Yeah, because he was saying, hey, you know, these attacks, he explained what he meant by the misinformation, quote unquote, on COVID.
01:53:08.580 And it was well, he said it was perfectly articulated.
01:53:12.180 And I love Rogan.
01:53:13.000 We'll have some tequila.
01:53:13.800 Yeah, we'll have some tequila.
01:53:14.800 Well, then the N-word tape comes out and he's like, I don't have anything to do.
01:53:19.500 I don't know him.
01:53:20.620 I don't know him.
01:53:22.340 Don't know him.
01:53:23.140 Who?
01:53:23.820 Rogan?
01:53:24.300 What?
01:53:24.500 He said, now that I have the full understanding of the guy.
01:53:27.820 I was too drunk to understand.
01:53:29.640 That was a drunk tweet.
01:53:30.960 That was a drunk tweet.
01:53:31.860 An out-of-context collection of somebody saying words that largely were quoted, now you have the full understanding of the narrative around Joe Rogan?
01:53:43.340 What are you talking about?
01:53:44.480 How do you have the, did you go back and look at all of those in context?
01:53:48.200 Do you know?
01:53:49.480 See, this is the problem.
01:53:50.260 That's pathetic by the rock, by the way.
01:53:51.960 Pathetic.
01:53:52.720 If you're using the SA analogy, how do you get a group of people to all give the Hitler salute?
01:54:01.060 Remember, everybody in Germany was giving the Hitler salute by the end.
01:54:04.600 He won with 30% popularity.
01:54:06.820 How do you do that?
01:54:08.280 Well, you do some by just saying the lie over and over and over and over again, appealing to their jingoistic ways.
01:54:16.040 That got some.
01:54:17.360 But the other was the SA.
01:54:19.320 They would come in the town and they would just take over your street.
01:54:22.160 They would do a little parade.
01:54:23.480 Hey, look, we're a bunch of Nazis in short pants.
01:54:26.700 We're just going to walk down the street.
01:54:28.580 And it wasn't necessarily that you said something.
01:54:31.480 You didn't stop and give the Hitler salute.
01:54:34.780 So when you didn't get it, they, they stopped, beat you up.
01:54:39.840 At the beginning, there were people like, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
01:54:44.720 And those people got beat up and you beat up the secondary, the rock people who have just too much to lose.
01:54:52.160 Too much to lose.
01:54:54.680 If I'm not playing the rock in movies, who will?
01:54:59.080 So that person gets beat up.
01:55:01.640 And once they see the mob, when they've seen the mob destroy others who were just trying to help somebody out who was down being beaten up, that's when usually people are like, oh, yeah, I don't know anything about it.
01:55:15.240 And now I understand the full context.
01:55:16.920 Oh, you didn't give a Hitler salute.
01:55:18.080 I remember that now.
01:55:19.300 Oh, I can't be.
01:55:20.560 I don't know him.
01:55:21.580 I don't know him.
01:55:22.840 That's the problem.
01:55:24.240 That's why when you said they're beating them publicly.
01:55:27.320 Yes, they're sending messages to everyone.
01:55:30.200 But this is why you should tweet or stand firmly.
01:55:34.580 You know what?
01:55:35.460 We need to make a T-shirt.
01:55:36.860 I'm with Rogan.
01:55:37.720 I don't have to agree with him.
01:55:41.540 He says a lot of crazy crap.
01:55:44.400 That's OK.
01:55:45.680 He has a right to say you don't like it.
01:55:47.500 Don't listen.
01:55:49.400 But that is something I want to go over tomorrow.
01:55:53.720 This is why we we can't live with each other.
01:55:57.820 I can live with people who say crazy stuff.
01:56:00.220 I can live with people who disagree with me vehemently done it my whole life.
01:56:05.800 Got it.
01:56:07.100 Master.
01:56:08.380 I'm practically the Yoda of that.
01:56:11.360 I am.
01:56:13.480 Here's the part that we can't that separates us.
01:56:17.340 The other side can't.
01:56:20.040 And I'm going to go into why and how this is played out in a very important story that I think everybody misses.
01:56:29.300 When they tell the story.
01:56:32.720 That'll be on tomorrow's episode.
01:56:35.780 Gold line.
01:56:37.440 OK, so how do you think civil war is going to work out with the currency?
01:56:43.440 Huh?
01:56:43.980 That'll be great.
01:56:45.560 Oh, all of these problems would stop if we could just get a digital currency.
01:56:49.940 That way, you know, they could the Fed could just say, hey, if you're listening to Joe Rogan and we're tracking because we know who's listening to Joe.
01:56:59.280 Joe Rogan, your currency is not going to work.
01:57:01.700 Problem solved.
01:57:02.780 Wouldn't that be great?
01:57:04.580 Oh, I'm hoping they come up with that soon.
01:57:07.680 Anyway, they'll probably wait until the dollar collapses.
01:57:11.480 Oh.
01:57:11.840 OK, you might want to make a call to gold line soon, maybe today.
01:57:20.180 No panic in my voice.
01:57:21.480 I'm just saying I do it today.
01:57:23.940 They have a special going on with the purchase of historic five dollar gold Indian and five dollar liberty coins.
01:57:30.420 You call them for the information on this.
01:57:33.940 I would.
01:57:34.700 Sure, I'd take advantage of the special.
01:57:36.360 That's not why I'd call today, though.
01:57:38.600 You know, sure.
01:57:40.160 You're going to save some money, but I'm kind of good on the stick with this one.

01:58:11.600 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:58:14.400 So news on Rumble today.
01:58:16.460 They have just offered Joe Rogan a hundred million reasons to join Rumble.
01:58:23.380 Yeah, the CEO wrote an open letter to Joe Rogan saying he comes over to Rumble four years, one hundred million dollars.
01:58:31.740 And they say this is totally legit.
01:58:34.080 Now, of course, he's under contract with Spotify at the moment, at the moment.
01:58:37.900 But I mean, but I mean, if I were Rogan, honestly, I'd kind of hope that, oh, Spotify is going to cancel.
01:58:44.760 Yeah, you have to believe his contract was built with this situation.
01:58:51.160 He's not a dummy.
01:58:52.140 He has to be protected from this.
01:58:53.940 Right.
01:58:54.260 Yeah.
01:58:54.680 You pay me.
01:58:56.100 Fine.
01:58:56.780 Yeah.
01:58:57.380 People people forget.
01:58:58.820 I mean, he's worked for ABC.
01:59:00.720 He's worked.
01:59:01.240 I mean, he's worked at big fear factor.
01:59:04.840 So NBC, too.
01:59:06.260 He knows he knows what contracts need to look like.
01:59:09.460 There's no way he signed a contract that didn't have a no cut clause in it.
01:59:13.460 No way.
01:59:14.800 And if I were him, I'd be like, oh, go ahead.
01:59:17.180 I'll do a Megyn Kelly.
01:59:18.480 I'll walk away with 80 million dollars.
01:59:21.200 OK.
01:59:22.040 Yeah.
01:59:22.660 Who's who's start your own thing up?
01:59:24.320 That's really successful.
01:59:25.260 Yeah.
01:59:25.560 Yeah.
01:59:25.800 I mean, he already did, which is funny.
01:59:27.820 He built the thing is his own.
01:59:29.260 Got bought by some big company.
01:59:31.200 Then they can throw him out.
01:59:32.320 He'll keep most of that money.
01:59:33.560 Then go to a new place where they'll give him even more money.
01:59:36.460 I do feel like don't cry for me, Argentina.
01:59:39.420 You know, this is a good plan.
01:59:44.040 Yeah, it is.
01:59:44.780 Why haven't we thought of this?
01:59:45.860 We need to start getting hired by liberal institutions for like two weeks.
01:59:48.660 I know.
01:59:49.340 Because, I mean, you remember when MSNBC wanted to hire us?
01:59:53.120 I do.
01:59:53.700 Right before.
01:59:54.320 Before they went nuts.
01:59:55.420 Yeah.
01:59:55.720 This is back.
01:59:56.560 Before CNN.
01:59:57.440 Yeah.
01:59:57.660 Before even CNN.
01:59:58.740 Yeah.
01:59:58.840 They did.
01:59:59.280 They were the first ones that really wanted you to do a show for them.
02:00:03.540 Yeah.
02:00:03.800 We're like, no.
02:00:05.380 But this is before they were really like crazy.
02:00:06.920 No, this is when they were like, Microsoft.
02:00:08.920 Yeah.
02:00:09.120 We're Microsoft-NBC partnership.
02:00:12.120 That's right.
02:00:12.520 Right.
02:00:13.180 Okay.
02:00:13.520 That's going to work out well.
02:00:14.800 That worked out like the Zune worked out, which was not good for Microsoft.
02:00:20.980 And I feel bad.
02:00:22.300 I feel bad for Microsoft, too, that those things don't work out.
02:00:25.480 Darn it.
02:00:26.240 Yeah.
02:00:26.760 Darn it.
02:00:27.340 Really sad.
02:00:27.760 Dude.
02:00:28.200 Lots of sadness for these institutions.
02:00:29.980 I mean, I'm really sad for CNN, which is having all sorts of trouble now.
02:00:33.900 It's really sad to watch.
02:00:35.720 I, you know, I just wish they wouldn't have sold, you know?
02:00:38.720 You know, maybe.
02:00:39.120 Because now it's going to be solved.
02:00:40.280 I'd like them just to wallow in that bottom for a while.
02:00:45.380 That's not very Christian.
02:00:46.680 But Jesus didn't have a talk show.
02:00:48.900 Okay?
02:00:49.220 So back off, haters.
02:00:51.860 I would just love CNN just to wallow in that for a while with the thought of, there is no salvation for you.
02:01:00.680 You know, the salvation.
02:01:02.160 Do you think there's any chance that this new discovery-based ownership comes in and turns it into like a real channel?
02:01:08.400 Well, I have sat with the real discovery ownership before.
02:01:16.680 So I'd have to say doubtful.
02:01:20.440 But better chance than what was going on there.
02:01:24.220 I mean, because they, when AT&T bought it, right?
02:01:27.320 Because that's who owns it.
02:01:27.940 When AT&T bought it, they bought it as an asset.
02:01:30.480 And they weren't in there going, well, let's roll up the sleeves.
02:01:33.020 Because it was kind of working.
02:01:35.200 You know?
02:01:36.260 Now, what are they going to do?
02:01:39.700 I mean, what's discovery going to do?
02:01:41.440 You're not going to put conservatives on.
02:01:43.720 But isn't there like an actual approach where they could say, hey, let's do like news.
02:01:48.940 Yes.
02:01:49.060 What if we did news?
02:01:50.380 The problem is, is that people in news, journalists, saw people like me and others that became very, very successful with opinions.
02:02:00.200 And they confused that with journalism.
02:02:02.620 Yeah.
02:02:03.060 That's why I always said, I'm not a journalist.
02:02:04.660 If they actually bring journalism back, and they do it as it used to be taught, maybe you can salvage the N out of CNN.
02:02:14.580 Yeah, like, I don't know if it works as like this high ratings monster.
02:02:19.640 But like, people would watch it if they actually thought they could go to a place that they could believe something without spin.
02:02:25.880 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
02:02:28.340 There's a trick to getting there.
