The Glenn Beck Program - The Best Way to Respond to New COVID Mandates ｜ Guest： Neil Howe ｜ 8⧸28⧸23

00:00:00.000 All right, let me tell you about good ranchers.

00:00:01.920 If you love delicious meat, I know I do, you can get it from good ranchers.

00:00:06.800 Now, if you understand the importance of the American farmer and the American rancher,

00:00:12.240 our meat and everything else doesn't come from a store.

00:00:15.100 It comes from a farm.

00:00:16.680 And the farther that farm is away from you, the less stability we have as a country.

00:00:23.800 85, I think 80% of our grass-fed beef comes from overseas.

00:00:28.940 That's a horrible idea.

00:00:30.620 Good ranchers works with the good farmers and the good ranchers.

00:00:33.460 They produce the meat that good ranchers guarantees is all 100% American.

00:00:39.900 And they also will help you deal with something else, and that is inflation.

00:00:44.980 You lock in your price for two years of anything you buy on fish, meat, pork, whatever.

00:03:12.660 Glenn, how was your weekend?

00:03:13.760 It was pretty good.

00:03:14.760 It was pretty good.

00:03:16.060 Yours?

00:03:16.960 Not bad.

00:03:17.540 Not bad at all.

00:03:18.060 Yeah.

00:03:18.420 Good.

00:03:18.900 Well, that's wonderful.

00:03:19.800 It wasn't 114 degrees every day.

00:03:23.460 Not every day.

00:03:24.200 No.

00:03:24.380 I mean, there was a moment there where it hit like 98,

00:03:26.960 and I was like, wow, this is paradise.

00:03:28.440 Yeah.

00:03:28.820 You know?

00:03:29.140 Yeah.

00:03:29.420 I put up, where's my sweater?

00:03:30.700 Uh-huh.

00:03:31.240 It was 101 at the football game at 9 p.m. on Friday.

00:03:38.080 It was great.

00:03:38.680 101.

00:03:39.240 It's been wonderful.

00:03:40.580 You know what?

00:03:41.080 I've converted.

00:03:42.200 Global warming is the most evil thing in the world,

00:03:45.140 at least for a couple more weeks.

00:03:46.440 Yeah.

00:03:46.880 So it's called summer in Texas.

00:03:49.920 Oh, it's not global warming?

00:03:51.280 No, it's called summer in Texas.

00:03:53.440 So it's wonderful.

00:03:55.520 Very, very wonderful.

00:03:57.640 So the big story, we're kind of, I don't know.

00:04:03.660 We're kind of dealing with the same crap.

00:04:07.100 If you look at the shooting in Florida, it's the same crap.

00:04:10.940 It's a Nazi with a gun. 0.64

00:04:15.100 Okay.

00:04:16.340 Got it.

00:04:17.220 Nazis, bad.

00:04:19.400 Guns, neutral.

00:04:20.780 Well, let's make sure that Nazis don't have guns. 0.81

00:04:25.520 Might be a good idea.

00:04:27.840 Unfortunately, the progressives are trying to make sure that no one has guns except for them.

00:04:35.440 It's a bad thing.

00:04:36.640 Because those Nazis don't typically listen to rules all that well.

00:04:40.780 I know.

00:04:41.360 When they're made by people who they don't like.

00:04:43.480 Yeah.

00:04:43.800 The thing that fascinated me a little bit about that story was, number one, how it's a national story.

00:04:49.980 Like, look, it sounds like a really terrible incident, obviously.

00:04:54.180 Like, you know, anytime there's a shooting of three people, it's a terrible incident.

00:04:56.920 But, like, how many times does that happen in Chicago or every other major city?

00:05:03.660 You never hear about it.

00:05:04.100 And I guess it's not a story when the people have the same color skin doing it to each other. 0.99

00:05:09.740 If it's two white people doing it to each other or two black people doing it to each other, we don't report on it at all.

00:05:14.520 But because this manifesto, which we suddenly have almost immediately, which I thought was not the pattern anymore.

00:05:21.340 I thought we had to wait months and months and months for politically-based ideological rants about murders.

00:05:29.200 All of a sudden, we have it right away in this case.

00:05:32.000 And because it's apparently a completely insane person with a dash of racism or maybe a heaping spoonful of racism.

00:05:39.820 Maybe a shovel.

00:05:40.640 Maybe a shovel of racism.

00:05:42.420 But, like, seemingly other indications, it was beyond racism, like real mental health difficulties and insanity going on.

00:05:50.620 But we learned about that right away.

00:05:52.300 And it's, to me, kind of amazing how quickly we've had this total turnaround.

00:05:57.540 You go back and look at polls from 15, 20 years ago, and you see America was pretty close to having racism solved.

00:06:05.960 That's not about me saying it.

00:06:08.140 It's the people who were living at the time, including African-Americans, saying, like, yeah, things are pretty good race-wise. 0.92

00:06:13.600 And it's completely fallen apart ever since we've decided to try this solution of, hey, everybody, what if we all say that all white people are racist no matter what they do or say?

00:06:27.560 And we'll also say all black people are victims and have no chance of succeeding on their own no matter what they do or say?

00:06:33.200 And let's give that a shot for a couple decades and see how it turns out.

00:06:36.500 Not well, apparently.

00:06:37.860 Yeah, I think we've done it.

00:06:38.960 Not, you know, we're just a few years from two decades of doing it.

00:06:42.580 2028 will be the 20th anniversary of, you know, racial and social justice.

00:06:50.060 The post-racial period.

00:06:51.440 Yes.

00:06:51.700 And the post-racial period.

00:06:53.680 And it's not turning out to be quite like that.

00:06:56.500 Just elect Barack Obama.

00:06:57.900 Yeah.

00:06:58.100 The post-racial period.

00:06:59.640 It'll be wonderful.

00:07:00.320 And it's funny because you remember, we were, of course, covering that back in the day.

00:07:04.380 And I remember walking, we did this coverage and we were in New York City at the time.

00:07:08.560 And I remember walking to the hotel I was staying at from the studios.

00:07:12.340 And, you know, people were in, again, remember this is New York City.

00:07:15.580 People were in the streets celebrating, you know, in the streets trying to, not just because he was a Democrat, but I think larger because he was black.

00:07:24.280 It was like our first black president.

00:07:25.420 And even though I thought he was going to be a terrible president and you thought he was going to be a terrible president and everyone in this audience thought he was going to be a terrible president, there was still that piece of like, well, you know, there's a real cost to this because he's going to be a bad president.

00:07:36.980 But at least it's good that, like, we can all put this race thing finally behind us. 0.86

00:07:40.360 Like, this is ridiculous.

00:07:41.220 Obviously, we elected a black president.

00:07:42.840 Yeah.

00:07:43.040 This is not a racist country.

00:07:44.120 Yeah.

00:07:44.660 Completely wrong.

00:07:45.600 Yeah.

00:07:45.740 But the total opposite way in every single possible.

00:07:48.760 The first president is like, I am powerless.

00:07:50.720 Yeah, right.

00:07:51.260 I am powerless.

00:07:52.220 I got here despite all the racists in the country.

00:07:55.720 And you're like, wait, what?

00:07:56.860 What?

00:07:57.100 What happened?

00:07:57.960 How did that?

00:07:59.020 What?

00:07:59.440 That's not.

00:08:00.680 Yeah.

00:08:00.960 The Klan, they were out.

00:08:02.340 They were out in force voting for Barack Obama, I guess.

00:08:06.460 I mean, how else did he win if we're all Klan's members?

00:08:09.980 Amazing.

00:08:10.580 What a weird, weird, weird time it's been.

00:08:13.320 Weird way.

00:08:13.440 It's been, you know, every piece of medicine they've tried to apply to this problem has done the exact reverse.

00:08:17.880 Well, but at least it's only in one category.

00:08:21.300 For instance, it's not in, like, education.

00:08:25.860 You know, the more the progressive gets involved in education, the worse the education gets.

00:08:31.140 Okay, that's two examples, though.

00:08:32.340 That's all you have.

00:08:33.220 You have nothing else other than those two.

00:08:34.780 Well, you know, we have the more they try to lower gas prices through regulation, the higher the gas price goes.

00:08:41.040 Well, sure.

00:08:41.860 I mean, that one's well known, but that's really about it.

00:08:44.840 You also have, you know, this promise of equality and, you know, blacks had and minorities had the best they've ever had in success and prosperity under Donald Trump.

00:09:00.840 But now that they've promised that they were going to equalize things and make things better for the working class blacks and Hispanics, they're no longer enjoying that prosperity.

00:09:12.960 Yeah.

00:09:13.180 There's a story out today that's skyrocketing.

00:09:15.100 Yeah.

00:09:15.340 Right?

00:09:15.700 Yeah.

00:09:16.140 So that's weird, isn't it?

00:09:17.380 Wow.

00:09:17.940 It's a stunner.

00:09:18.620 It's weird.

00:09:18.840 It's almost like everything they touch turns to garbage.

00:09:22.400 I was going to use a different word than that.

00:09:23.740 It's, you know, it, you know, hey, our, our inflation reduction act does the exact opposite.

00:09:31.060 Sure.

00:09:31.660 Yeah.

00:09:32.040 But yeah, I mean, you have a few thousand examples and that's about it.

00:09:35.900 Okay.

00:09:36.240 That's it.

00:09:36.820 You know, I only have everything they do and say how much we're going to reimagine the police and make our community safer.

00:09:47.220 Has that worked?

00:09:48.360 Hmm.

00:09:48.780 Well, my question works.

00:09:51.040 My question is, have you had enough yet?

00:09:53.840 Have you, have you had enough yet?

00:09:55.100 Do you have enough evidence yet?

00:09:59.340 Because I do.

00:10:00.440 I've had it for quite some time, but you know, maybe I was just quick on the uptake on this particular thousand issues.

00:10:10.780 But you know, when, when, when have you had enough?

00:10:13.960 And you realize, I think when you look at our major cities around the country, there's never a time they get it.

00:10:20.280 No.

00:10:20.540 It never comes.

00:10:21.560 It never comes.

00:10:21.840 You could put the same people in office for a hundred years.

00:10:25.940 They have.

00:10:26.520 And they have, and they failed for a hundred years, and they will still elect the same people.

00:10:31.520 I know.

00:10:32.120 It's like, it's incomprehensible.

00:10:34.460 Honestly, like, wouldn't you just try something else out of default?

00:10:38.360 Right?

00:10:38.560 Like, just like, you know what?

00:10:39.560 I don't know.

00:10:40.820 Look, the whole low taxes freedom thing sounds terrible to me, but maybe we should give it a whirl.

00:10:47.740 Right?

00:10:48.100 Like, isn't there a moment you consider that?

00:10:51.280 And the answer largely is no.

00:10:53.260 No, no.

00:10:53.860 They don't.

00:10:54.320 New York.

00:10:54.620 Never consider it.

00:10:55.360 New York.

00:10:55.900 Same thing.

00:10:56.700 And it kills me the, the way New York is now reacting to the migrant problem.

00:11:04.440 Oh, my gosh.

00:11:05.380 It is, it's, it's crippling New York City.

00:11:08.760 It's, and they've got like, what, 35,000, uh, and it's just crippling them.

00:11:14.160 They can't handle it.

00:11:16.120 Have, have you been to Houston?

00:11:18.480 Have you been to Dallas?

00:11:19.600 Have you been to the border?

00:11:21.020 Have you been to Arizona?

00:11:22.800 I mean, what are you, what are you talking about?

00:11:27.120 Have you been to California?

00:11:29.000 Yeah.

00:11:29.220 Cause New York, you're only, you don't even have to fly.

00:11:32.020 The only difference between you and Los Angeles now, palm trees.

00:11:36.000 That's it.

00:11:37.380 Oh, and snotty celebrities.

00:11:39.980 No, you've got enough snotty celebrities there. 1.00

00:11:42.800 It's fascinating to watch this because of course, obviously places like Texas and other border

00:11:48.280 states have been complaining about this forever and saying like, we've got a real problem here.

00:11:52.080 No one's helping us.

00:11:53.240 And, you know, but I, it's amazing to see like a few buses, like this is what set you over the edge.

00:12:01.040 Yeah, I know.

00:12:01.260 Your society was so close to the edge that a few buses of people that you said you wanted,

00:12:06.760 by the way, we should point out you were welcoming your sanctuary city.

00:12:09.620 You wanted this so badly.

00:12:11.700 A few buses show up from the South and all of a sudden you can't run your society anymore.

00:12:16.900 You know, I will say like, you know, Texas for all, it gets all, you know,

00:12:21.060 all this beating about how these evil right wingers and how they hate immigrants.

00:12:25.080 You know, like, look, our day-to-day life in Texas is, it's filled with interactions with illegal immigrants. 1.00

00:12:32.300 They live in our society, all around us, and like, largely we just get along with them.

00:12:39.460 Now, we all realize there are societal issues with our law and how that works,

00:12:43.920 but like, generally speaking, like, we wish the law was applied better,

00:12:49.700 but like, if they're here, like, you have interactions with them, they're like any other person.

00:12:55.120 We treat them like every other person, even though we don't think the law is being applied appropriately.

00:12:59.720 New York's like, they see four people with, like, Hispanic last names,

00:13:03.840 and they just decide they're going to abandon the state.

00:13:06.180 Like, what is happening?

00:13:08.480 Why can't you figure this out?

00:13:09.840 Well, because here's the difference.

00:13:11.180 In Texas, generally speaking, you know, they'll go to work.

00:13:16.040 Yep, exactly.

00:13:16.980 In New York, they go to the plaza.

00:13:20.500 And why would they go to work?

00:13:21.800 Why would you?

00:13:22.400 You know, in Texas, like, you do get, look, there are definitely people living off the dole.

00:13:26.280 Like, the criticisms we have of this system are real.

00:13:28.960 But, like, you're right.

00:13:30.720 A lot of people come here, even though they're not supposed to be here,

00:13:33.780 and they shouldn't be here because they're breaking the law being here.

00:13:36.160 But they go every day, and they work, and they interact with people,

00:13:40.380 and have a relatively normal life.

00:13:43.760 And while there are major problems, somehow Texas has been able to do it

00:13:48.100 without, by the way, a state income tax, I should point out.

00:13:51.420 They are somehow able to keep, we're keeping this society running with, I don't know,

00:13:56.980 10 times, 20 times as many illegal immigrants, and no state income tax. 0.78

00:14:01.100 And yet, this place runs 100 times better than New York.

00:14:03.720 I lived there.

00:14:04.180 I was born there.

00:14:04.880 I know.

00:14:05.980 It runs much, much better.

00:14:07.320 I've lived in both places.

00:14:09.060 It's not close.

00:14:10.680 So, what is the problem?

00:14:12.120 I don't know.

00:14:12.740 Could it go back to the original part of this conversation?

00:14:14.820 No, I don't think so.

00:14:16.340 I mean, because, look, our schools are safer now.

00:14:19.140 All of our schools, they're all saying, you know, we want children to feel safe,

00:14:25.540 to express who they are and be safe.

00:14:29.840 And there's a Teacher of the Month, Casey McGrath.

00:14:33.760 She is fabulous.

00:14:35.600 Just one Teacher of the Month.

00:14:38.020 And she's got this little thing.

00:14:39.560 She was raping a student at the time. 1.00

00:14:42.540 But I think those are separate.

00:14:44.820 I think, hmm, what?

00:14:47.280 She won Teacher of the Month in the same month as this was going on?

00:14:51.260 Well, she was unlawfully and knowingly engaging in sexual penetration with a person of at least 13 years.

00:14:59.320 Oh, good God.

00:14:59.780 Okay, so, you know.

00:15:01.860 Was it one of those things where, like, she had been doing this the month before and stopped,

00:15:06.540 and they said, good improvement?

00:15:08.480 No, I don't.

00:15:09.420 No, I don't think so.

00:15:11.320 I had another teacher in New York City who posted on social media about teaching children consent.

00:15:17.640 You know, we got to make sure that we teach our kids about consent.

00:15:21.420 And, hey, they can consent.

00:15:24.200 Apparently, she taught it really well to a 14-year-old student.

00:15:27.360 She taught it to that 14-year-old student over and over and over again for many, many months.

00:15:34.080 A lot of dedication to the curriculum there.

00:15:35.280 A lot of dedication to the curriculum there.

00:15:36.560 So, I don't know about you.

00:15:37.660 So, again, I'm going to promise you your kids are going to feel safe.

00:15:43.740 And, well, they're not.

00:15:46.020 No, no, they're not.

00:15:46.800 They're not.

00:15:47.200 That's weird.

00:15:48.380 Again, name the policy.

00:15:51.140 Name the thing that they're saying they're trying to stop.

00:15:54.560 And show me the policy where it hasn't gotten a thousand times worse.

00:15:59.660 I'll let you think on that for 60 seconds.

00:16:02.800 Back in a second.

00:17:10.800 Station ID.

00:17:17.640 Wow.

00:17:18.200 By the way, the left and CNN has just come out with a new report speaking of education.

00:17:29.020 Since 2021, state lawmakers have introduced nearly 400 bills aimed at giving parents, government officials,

00:17:37.040 and concerned citizens the ability to challenge or monitor what schools teach about race and gender issues,

00:17:43.280 according to a new report.

00:17:45.780 While many of these laws stop short of directly censoring what is taught in classrooms,

00:17:50.920 the analysis now has found that many of the proposed bills have had a, quote,

00:17:57.640 chilling effect on public education.

00:18:00.980 Uh-oh.

00:18:01.460 That sounds bad.

00:18:02.700 Yeah.

00:18:02.800 Educators told the advocacy group that they, the advocacy group,

00:18:07.360 that they now fear that they could be held criminally liable and lose their jobs for teaching prohibited concepts.

00:18:15.940 You mean like hardcore porn?

00:18:18.560 You should be.

00:18:19.920 This is the problem.

00:18:20.840 So, in other words, you are teaching children,

00:18:24.420 and you're afraid you might be arrested if you're teaching them about child mutilation.

00:18:32.360 Well, we just heard about a couple of teachers who were teaching their kids something very, very important.

00:18:37.420 In a very personal, you know, one-on-one sort of way.

00:18:41.100 As you point out, over and over and over and over again.

00:18:44.040 So, wow.

00:18:44.340 So, yeah, you know what?

00:18:45.240 You can get arrested for that sort of behavior.

00:18:46.600 You know, that's weird.

00:18:47.360 As a teacher, you'd have to worry about that because, like, I don't worry about that.

00:18:51.220 You're at my job.

00:18:52.180 I don't worry about that.

00:18:53.120 No?

00:18:53.260 When I say something, I teach something that is wholly inappropriate, I don't worry about my job.

00:18:58.480 There's no way they could fire me.

00:19:00.140 You know?

00:19:00.560 I could get on here and do anything I want.

00:19:03.300 Really?

00:19:03.740 Yeah.

00:19:04.060 And I think most people are like that in their jobs.

00:19:06.920 Yeah.

00:19:07.300 You know?

00:19:07.740 They could have the, you know, the boss come in to them and say, don't do this.

00:19:12.000 And they're like, I'll do whatever I want.

00:19:14.240 Mm-hmm.

00:19:14.860 And they don't get fired.

00:19:17.140 That's employment for you.

00:19:18.220 Yeah, that's how it works.

00:19:18.820 So, teachers, I think you have it.

00:19:21.500 I think you have it.

00:19:22.420 It's funny because it's the left that really wanted to have centralized control of education.

00:19:29.640 And so, they implement, you know, they work forever to expand the role of government in

00:19:36.560 our schools.

00:19:37.060 Mm-hmm.

00:19:37.440 Mm-hmm.

00:19:37.680 And then, someone else gets elected that they don't like who now has that power.

00:19:42.600 And they don't like that.

00:19:42.940 And they make decisions that they don't like.

00:19:44.420 Hey, hey, hey.

00:19:44.720 And it's a catastrophe.

00:19:45.680 Hey, hey, hey.

00:19:46.020 Yeah.

00:19:46.160 I have an idea.

00:19:46.920 I have an idea.

00:19:47.420 Yeah.

00:19:47.540 That's why you don't want to have a government that is so big that it tells you what you

00:19:56.580 can and cannot do.

00:19:57.720 Yeah, I don't know about that.

00:19:59.120 That sounds bad.

00:20:00.000 I think what we want to do is just always get our guy elected for 100% of the time forever.

00:20:04.780 No, I don't think that's a good idea.

00:20:06.460 And then they can just rule over us.

00:20:07.540 Yeah, I don't think that's a good idea.

00:20:09.460 Think this.

00:20:10.760 Think this through.

00:20:11.400 Okay, so you have a government that could not tell the local schools what to do, but

00:20:19.160 you had a local government that was strong enough to arrest people for having sex with

00:20:24.860 teachers.

00:20:25.980 Ooh, you're really walking a line there.

00:20:28.740 It's a balance.

00:20:29.440 I don't know if that's possible.

00:20:31.080 Yeah.

00:20:31.560 Okay.

00:20:32.000 Well, just.

00:20:32.920 You're saying in some sort of futuristic world.

00:20:37.600 No, I'm thinking like right now.

00:20:38.720 Utopia, right?

00:20:39.300 No, I'm thinking like right now, you know, would be good.

00:20:41.760 By the way, the Biden administration is going to reduce your energy bills.

00:20:49.280 Ceiling fans now are the latest target of the EPA.

00:20:54.500 Ceiling fans have got to be rethought.

00:20:57.620 I thought we were supposed to turn off our air conditioning and turn on our ceiling fans.

00:21:00.800 No, we're not.

00:21:01.200 That's not changed?

00:21:01.580 No, no, it's well, no, you're still part of it.

00:21:04.560 I mean, we're evolving.

00:21:05.740 Okay.

00:21:06.040 We're evolving.

00:21:06.620 So keep the air conditioning off.

00:21:08.640 Okay.

00:21:08.680 And don't turn on your ceiling fan until you get a new one that hasn't been invented yet.

00:21:14.600 The energy department is requiring now the ceiling fan industry to come up with one that's much more energy efficient.

00:21:25.100 And they say now this is now you might think.

00:21:30.660 What are you talking about?

00:21:32.280 I'm talking about not another restriction.

00:21:37.160 I am talking about a household savings of thirty nine dollars over the age.

00:21:45.780 Well, all households combined you're talking about, right?

00:21:47.960 No, not all households combined.

00:21:49.880 Just that one household, your house.

00:21:52.020 Oh, okay.

00:21:52.380 It'll save thirty nine dollars over the life of the ceiling fan.

00:21:56.860 So not in a year.

00:21:58.260 No.

00:21:58.540 Or a month.

00:21:59.180 No, no, no, no, no.

00:21:59.800 Over the life of the ceiling fan.

00:22:03.240 I feel like the life of a ceiling fan is infinite.

00:22:05.420 Is there another?

00:22:06.340 I've never replaced a ceiling fan.

00:22:08.360 So I don't.

00:22:08.920 I had one that started spinning out of control at one point.

00:22:11.420 I thought it might like decapitate one of my kids.

00:22:13.340 So we did replace it.

00:22:14.160 So you did replace that one?

00:22:14.580 That's the only one I could ever think of.

00:22:16.040 Yeah, I've never had that.

00:22:17.580 So I don't think I've ever replaced one.

00:22:19.500 And I've I've had many a ceiling fan.

00:22:22.140 Yeah, like the life of a ceiling fan is longer than the life of a human.

00:22:25.540 I think why would we be thirty nine dollars over the life of the life of the ceiling fan?

00:22:33.060 Now, let's be honest.

00:22:33.840 That's probably 20 years longer than you live in that house.

00:22:37.140 It usually is, right?

00:22:38.060 Yeah, but thirty nine dollars.

00:22:39.700 Think about this.

00:22:40.880 The money the government is pouring in for the development of these new ceiling fans,

00:22:46.220 the money then you'll have to spend to replace that thirty nine dollars savings.

00:22:52.140 And with this inflation, thirty nine dollars over a lifetime.

00:22:55.980 Wow.

00:22:56.900 Count those pennies.

00:22:58.540 OK, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

00:23:25.000 It's the truth with the Tuttle Twins back to school doesn't mean just new teachers.

00:23:31.040 It means indoctrination.

00:23:32.760 Things like multiple genders, socialism, Marxism, God's dead, capitalism is evil.

00:23:37.540 We're all racist.

00:23:38.700 Climate change is responsible for everything.

00:24:21.740 There's a couple of things going on to we should report.

00:24:24.980 First of all, the the power company, the Hawaiian electric company has removed all of the, you know, all of the the transformers and the poles and the wires and what some would call it evidence.

00:24:41.320 Yes, but they've removed all of that from the scene.

00:24:44.140 And they said that's all they only did that because, well, they don't own any of the land.

00:24:50.140 You know, they're just beyond the power substation.

00:24:54.520 So they wanted to clean it up, make sure that everything was good.

00:24:59.060 They said they took pictures, though.

00:25:01.320 So that's good.

00:25:02.160 That's good.

00:25:02.740 Yeah.

00:25:03.160 You know, pictures worth a thousand words.

00:25:04.800 Glenn.

00:25:05.060 Yeah, it really is.

00:25:05.980 What a surprise.

00:25:06.660 This is a, you know, public private partnership with the government, too.

00:25:09.660 Yeah.

00:25:10.260 Yeah.

00:25:10.700 I'm really surprised.

00:25:12.260 It didn't work out really well.

00:25:14.480 It never does.

00:25:15.200 Never does.

00:25:15.540 They never seem to do their job.

00:25:16.820 By the way, they only released.

00:25:18.800 What was it?

00:25:19.380 300 names of the missing on Friday.

00:25:24.460 There's eleven hundred people still missing.

00:25:28.240 And I mean, I don't know why they're saying it that way.

00:25:33.700 It's I mean, it's not that big of an island.

00:25:36.120 I hate to be I don't mean to be callous on this, but it's not that big of an island.

00:25:40.100 It's not like it's not like somebody, you know, is wandering off and is lost or whatever.

00:25:46.060 I mean, it's not that big.

00:25:47.840 And, you know, what it would what would it be?

00:25:51.100 Yeah.

00:25:51.340 Somebody with Alzheimer's, maybe.

00:25:53.180 OK.

00:25:53.580 Yeah.

00:25:53.800 That's a possibility, right?

00:25:55.020 A kid.

00:25:55.900 Maybe.

00:25:56.680 Maybe.

00:25:57.060 But I doubt it.

00:25:58.060 I mean.

00:25:58.840 Yeah.

00:25:59.040 But it's theoretically possible.

00:26:00.600 It's not possible because, yeah, why would you be missing or somebody who's like just

00:26:05.200 trying to disappear?

00:26:06.220 Right.

00:26:06.700 Yeah.

00:26:07.340 You know, faking their death.

00:26:08.480 I mean, out of out of that many missing.

00:26:12.420 Certainly.

00:26:12.640 I don't understand.

00:26:13.440 Certainly not five percent.

00:26:14.860 Right.

00:26:15.440 No.

00:26:15.860 What is the number here?

00:26:16.860 I mean, God.

00:26:17.300 And you think about this.

00:26:18.420 If all these people that are missing are gone.

00:26:21.800 I mean, you know, this is a horrifying, horrible.

00:26:25.620 I mean, this might be why they're holding it back.

00:26:27.420 Like, they don't want people to to to really, you know, come to the point where they recognize

00:26:32.940 what's happened here.

00:26:33.880 This is maybe I don't know.

00:26:35.140 I don't know what it is.

00:26:36.480 J.P.

00:26:36.960 Decker, he is Mercury One's executive director.

00:26:40.360 He was an executive producer for me and a producer for a very long time.

00:26:44.280 He's now over at Mercury One.

00:26:46.800 And I believe you leave Hawaii today.

00:26:49.520 Do you not, J.P.?

00:26:51.060 Yes, sir.

00:26:51.720 Yeah.

00:26:52.100 Yeah.

00:26:52.340 I leave tonight.

00:26:52.840 So is there any explanation why they are still holding these names?

00:26:59.020 Glenn, I have, you know, we've been here almost five days.

00:27:03.180 And that is one thing that every single local is confused on that we've spoken with.

00:27:09.760 I've spoken with a lot of people and they said, we don't trust anyone.

00:27:12.220 We do not trust what's coming out of the government.

00:27:14.420 We don't trust what's coming out of not just the state of Hawaii, but the county and then

00:27:20.100 also our federal government.

00:27:21.100 How do they not?

00:27:22.960 I mean, that is terrifying that they don't even believe the county.

00:27:27.340 No, no, go ahead.

00:27:31.200 Well, it's just one word, though, about the locals is that's come up while we're talking

00:27:37.540 with some of these stories are just, again, horrific.

00:27:42.120 But these are some of the most resilient people I've ever met in my life.

00:27:45.720 And they yesterday, just a quick story.

00:27:49.740 Yesterday, we we connected with this surfer.

00:27:53.200 He's a pretty famous surfer on the island.

00:27:55.340 And they said, hey, you know, we're getting a shipment from one of the other islands of

00:28:00.360 surfboards and fishing equipment.

00:28:02.040 And I said, well, one, we went and helped.

00:28:06.840 We were in the water.

00:28:07.980 We were pulling surfboards off the boat.

00:28:10.060 We were doing, you know, getting fishing supplies.

00:28:12.360 And I said, what is going on here?

00:28:14.240 And they said, most of these kids lost their surfboards in the mental health crisis that

00:28:19.680 is here right now from seeing people burning in cars and seeing their family members in

00:28:23.960 their homes.

00:28:24.480 This is the only thing that's going to bring this community back to what we we know and

00:28:29.060 we love.

00:28:30.020 And so this guy is going to take kids surfboards that were donated from other islands.

00:28:35.080 And then the fishing supplies is just going to go to these local fishermen who lost literally

00:28:41.660 everything.

00:28:42.380 These are the guys who go out and buy the fish for all the tourists and speaking with these

00:28:48.260 people.

00:28:49.660 And for me, yesterday we were at church, Harvest Church, which is one of our partners.

00:28:54.480 Um, and I was standing next to one of the worship leader's wives who lost everything in this

00:29:02.320 fire.

00:29:03.340 She's just bawling and crying out and she, they're singing this, one of these songs and

00:29:09.060 it's about how God is still in control in this disaster.

00:29:13.120 And it was, it was a powerful moment for me.

00:29:16.540 I think this is the first time that I finally broke down, um, from seeing the damage and seeing

00:29:21.100 what this city is going through.

00:29:23.260 And the one thing that really hits close to home is these, these are Americans.

00:29:28.120 These are our brothers and sisters.

00:29:30.360 This isn't just, uh, another story in the news cycle that's going to disappear.

00:29:35.320 These are our people.

00:29:37.100 And the fact that the government has, has just decided to one block everyone from going back

00:29:43.900 in still.

00:29:44.560 Um, there's a few people that have been able to go back in and look at their homes, but

00:29:48.320 too, there, I mean, we've gone past, we have to drive through part of Lahaina every single

00:29:54.400 day.

00:29:54.880 If we want to get to another part of the Island and you see the destruction and you smell

00:29:59.620 the smoke still, you smell the ashes.

00:30:01.900 And you know, those black walls that are going up on the road that everyone says the government's

00:30:06.740 covering up the ashes, all this.

00:30:08.660 And it's what we've learned, what we've seen across the whole Island are those black walls 0.96

00:30:12.380 are so that ashes in the teeth of whatever is left of any of those human remains don't

00:30:18.520 go into the street and don't get lost.

00:30:21.500 It's just, it's devastating, Glenn.

00:30:24.400 Devastating.

00:30:24.880 I know, you know, people ran into the water and how many people, I mean, how far in the

00:30:33.840 water did they go?

00:30:34.920 I hear some of them were in the water for eight or 10 hours, just treading water.

00:30:39.800 Is that true?

00:30:40.500 Oh yeah.

00:30:41.300 Yeah.

00:30:41.820 Glenn, we, we were, uh, with a couple of people yesterday and there was a story of this

00:30:47.280 teacher and the fires coming down towards the ocean and she had to run, jump in the ocean

00:30:53.860 with a group, a big group of people.

00:30:56.640 She doesn't know how many, but a big group of people and they all jump in, they treaded

00:31:01.500 water and swam for up to eight hours and everyone around her drowned.

00:31:09.080 Oh my gosh.

00:31:09.580 She's, she's trying to rescue these people, these kids, these dads, these moms, these

00:31:14.500 grandparents, but she, she could, she couldn't do anything. 0.96

00:31:18.520 And so she just, she just tried to tread and swim, but everyone around her drowned.

00:31:23.440 They ended up finding her eight hours later, alive.

00:31:25.980 This, this lady, a mile off the coast. 1.00

00:31:29.620 This shouldn't have happened this way.

00:31:31.900 How, how did there, where the people, where were the, where were the coast guard boats or

00:31:36.720 whatever boats, what, why, what happened?

00:31:40.400 Every single local that I have spoken to are asking the same question.

00:31:45.520 They're asking, you know, we've got installments all around this area on all these islands.

00:31:51.760 Where was the military?

00:31:53.200 And, you know, we've heard stories of some Navy SEALs coming in and, you know, just helping

00:31:57.820 and then some Chinooks that came in and helped try to rescue.

00:32:00.340 And the coast guard came in later on to try to help.

00:32:03.780 But we, we did confirm with a couple locals who ran out that the police were so scared

00:32:11.260 of the power lines that fell through the wind, that people were not allowed to get out of

00:32:15.720 Lahaina.

00:32:16.900 And during these fires, because the police were blocking off because they didn't want them

00:32:21.540 to run into the power lines that were still alive.

00:32:25.020 Which, which is the job of the power company that always happens.

00:32:30.060 A power line goes down and you shut everything off.

00:32:33.920 Why didn't they shut it off?

00:32:36.580 They, they, they don't, they don't want to, they haven't come out yet and said, they don't

00:32:42.360 want to incriminate.

00:32:44.060 I mean, uh, they don't want to say, uh, the other day we were eating at a local restaurant

00:32:49.760 and we smelled a fire.

00:32:52.320 Uh, this was the one that kind of, you probably might've heard about, but there was a, there's

00:32:55.860 a pretty large grass fire that was going towards Lahaina.

00:32:59.320 And so we smelled it.

00:33:01.720 Um, and then what's interesting though, we're at this restaurant and there's a FEMA person,

00:33:07.660 there's a Red Cross person.

00:33:09.120 There's a guy who lost everything.

00:33:11.540 Um, and then there's a former Doctors Without Borders, um, person.

00:33:15.740 And she was here volunteering and the power goes out and all of our phones, emergency

00:33:23.100 phone, you know what that's like.

00:33:25.480 Everybody's phone goes off and it says evacuate one.

00:33:29.940 Most of the people that are in that room didn't know quite what to do, which was interesting.

00:33:33.540 I mean, and then the guy who lost his home, he's just, there's, there's tears because what

00:33:40.300 do you do on this Island?

00:33:42.300 There is no escape route.

00:33:43.700 Lahaina is the escape route.

00:33:46.620 You go through that street.

00:33:48.280 There is no medical team on this side.

00:33:50.960 There's no hospital on this side of the Island.

00:33:53.800 And I mean, you have to go 45 minutes if something were to happen.

00:33:58.080 And we've heard stories of, of some of the burn victims who ended up getting in those,

00:34:02.660 the two ambulances on this side of the Island and died on the, in the ambulance, trying to

00:34:08.880 get to a hospital.

00:34:09.760 So, I mean, with, with what we're doing with Mercury one is incredible because within the

00:34:16.440 first 48 hours, we sent a tech team, one of our incredible partners, the name is ITDRC.

00:34:23.620 And they showed up with star links to provide internet for the community because for three

00:34:28.880 or four days, most of these people had no way of communicating to the outside world that

00:34:34.420 we're still alive, to their families and friends in the mainland.

00:34:38.540 And one, why was it a nonprofit that came in and provide internet and the government did

00:34:45.040 nothing?

00:34:45.340 They ended up providing internet for the government and the community because they, they told us

00:34:51.000 the other day, we can cut the red tape.

00:34:53.180 We have no red tape, but the government has the red tape.

00:34:56.120 So that's where they come to us.

00:34:58.420 And, you know, we were one of the first ones to sparrow in his purse to send in a cargo plane

00:35:02.760 of supplies, food, water.

00:35:05.500 And right now this Island doesn't need the food and water.

00:35:07.840 What they need is the mental health.

00:35:08.840 There's already been about five or six suicides.

00:35:12.840 And that's just, when you lose everything, including your family, and the, but the mental 0.57

00:35:23.460 health side is something that we're going to be focused on.

00:35:26.400 And we spoke with a local restaurant the other day and he just, and again, Glenn, you know,

00:35:32.120 we brought cameras to help tell the story of what Mercury One and our partners have been

00:35:36.680 doing on the ground, what we're going to do.

00:35:38.160 Cause we're not here just for a small amount of time.

00:35:40.940 We're here for the long haul.

00:35:42.700 We don't just, I mean, when you started this, you said, we're going to the first ones in

00:35:46.160 last ones out.

00:35:47.320 That's what we do.

00:35:48.440 And so we, you know, I was talking with the restaurant and he just breaks down and, you

00:35:52.020 know, we didn't have the cameras with us and he said, you know, all these people have

00:35:54.580 been coming in with cameras.

00:35:55.660 They've just been coming in and just want to take our story.

00:35:57.900 And then we just leave again.

00:36:00.320 And we've had business guys.

00:36:01.940 This is what this guy said.

00:36:03.440 Businessmen come in with wads of cash, drop it on our table and say, I'll buy you out.

00:36:08.160 And I will, I will, you know, just buy you out.

00:36:10.640 This guy has put up 20 of his staff in his restaurant.

00:36:14.460 He's been providing hundreds of meals a day to people.

00:36:18.260 I tried to offer some help and he said, I don't want help.

00:36:21.960 He goes, what I want is for you to help other people.

00:36:24.720 You, you to help my, my neighbors.

00:36:26.220 And when we say a hundred percent goes with, and that's usually what I would tell these

00:36:32.180 people, Hey, we're not your normal nonprofit.

00:36:34.220 We're not a prophet who takes overhead.

00:36:36.500 We, we, we want to give a hundred percent to this island.

00:36:40.260 And that's, that's what we do.

00:36:41.780 That's the most powerful thing that, and they're shocked at it.

00:36:44.820 They said, no, no, no.

00:36:45.620 We, I know you take overhead all this.

00:36:47.200 No, we don't.

00:36:48.620 But I think, you know, anyways, I'm, I know I'm telling so many different stories, but

00:36:53.260 this is, this is one for me personally, it's changed my life on what community looks like.

00:37:00.120 These people are exactly what community they're the definition of Ohana, which means family.

00:37:06.000 And that is community.

00:37:07.780 JP.

00:37:08.040 Thank you so much.

00:37:09.600 Mercury one executive director, uh, coming home today.

00:38:46.920 Glenn Beck.

00:39:01.000 Sometimes it seems like there's a running competition between cyber criminals and the government to see who can steal the most money from the largest number of people.

00:39:08.380 Now, sure, sometimes the government wins that battle, but the competition is pretty fierce at this point.

00:39:14.380 And if you take home title theft, you can see that it's one of the fastest growing crimes in America right now, often done online.

00:39:20.380 And there's a very good reason for that, because most victims know that home title theft is devastating to them.

00:39:28.880 And, of course, it also doesn't even hit you for months after it actually occurs.

00:39:33.000 You don't know it's even going on.

00:39:35.040 One homeowner pulled onto her street one day and saw a bulldozer demolishing her home.

00:39:39.320 There it was just being torn down right before her eyes.

00:39:42.000 She was a victim of the devastating crime called home title theft.

00:39:44.800 And I hope you don't repeat that experience.

00:39:46.740 A criminal had forged his way onto the deed of her home and sold it.

00:39:50.720 And now the new owner was tearing it down to rebuild.

00:39:55.000 Your home, your property, your equity are your most valuable assets.

00:39:58.240 And Home Title Lock helps you protect them.

00:40:28.600 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

00:40:30.620 We're glad you're here.

00:40:31.660 We have Neil Howan coming up in just a second.

00:40:34.480 He's a historian.

00:40:35.440 He is the author of The Fourth Turning Is Here.

00:40:39.180 He and his partner offered or wrote, I think, seven best-selling books, Generations, The 13th Generation, The Fourth Turning, Millennials Rising.

00:40:58.380 This is the book that came out in the 90s where they were talking about how America is about to go into crisis.

00:41:10.420 And they predicted between 2005 and 25.

00:41:16.260 Now they're saying 08 to 28.

00:41:19.020 And it could mean the end of, you know, America as we know it.

00:41:25.660 This is what they were saying back in the 90s.

00:41:29.180 And they based this on history, on this cycle of history.

00:41:34.800 And he's going to explain that.

00:41:36.340 And also, I think, give us a very hopeful message because of what the next generation is capable of.

00:41:48.200 And a lot of people don't have faith in the next generation.

00:41:52.920 I do because of The Fourth Turning.

00:41:57.020 So he's going to be joining us here in just a minute.

00:42:00.200 But his latest book is called The Fourth Turning Is Here.

00:42:06.040 And I think we all feel that.

00:42:08.000 No matter what you call it, we all feel something big is right around the corner.

00:42:13.820 It does feel that way.

00:42:14.600 And I don't necessarily want to know what it is.

00:42:16.740 Yeah.

00:42:17.640 We're just keeping ourselves in the dark.

00:42:19.060 I don't think he knows what it is either.

00:42:21.180 But he will tell us how we get through it historically.

00:42:25.540 And I think you're going to like his answer.

00:42:28.780 Neil Howe joins us.

00:42:30.460 Next.

00:42:33.520 Rough Greens is our sponsor.

00:42:35.080 How often do things that are in, that you do things that are in your dog's best interest?

00:42:41.420 Right?

00:42:41.780 I mean, all the time.

00:42:43.240 All the time.

00:42:43.900 You take him for a walk.

00:42:45.380 You throw the ball with him.

00:42:46.760 You give him the good boy scratches and the belly rub and everything else.

00:42:51.380 You take your dog to the vet to make sure that they're healthy.

00:42:54.720 Even though it costs a fortune sometimes.

00:42:56.660 We do this because we love our dog.

00:42:58.480 Feed your dog the best possible nutrition you can.

00:43:03.140 It doesn't matter what you feed your dog in food.

00:43:05.780 But this was discovered by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black.

00:43:08.780 And it is called Rough Greens.

00:43:10.360 It is something you put on the dog's food.

00:43:12.620 Vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants.

00:43:15.820 You name it.

00:43:16.520 If it's healthy for your dog, it's in there.

00:43:19.300 Try it out with your dog.

00:43:20.580 You'll see what I mean.

00:44:25.580 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:44:31.100 Hello, America.

00:44:32.300 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:44:33.400 I have wanted to talk to Neil Howe for I don't know how many years.

00:44:38.560 Never, just never had the chance to do it.

00:44:42.080 He has a new book out called The Fourth Turning is Here.

00:44:45.980 The Fourth Turning is something that he wrote back in 97, I think, with William Strauss.

00:44:52.820 It was an incredibly impactful book.

00:44:57.780 This is where you get the millennials. 0.90

00:44:59.720 The millennial generation is from Howe and Strauss.

00:45:04.500 Mr. Strauss has since passed on, but we have his partner who has taken this now to the next level.

00:45:14.880 He'll explain what the fourth turning is.

00:45:17.000 It is a moment of crisis, but I think you're going to like the positivity and the possibilities that come out of that.

00:45:29.380 Historically speaking, Neil Howe joins us in 60 seconds.

00:45:33.740 First Patriot Mobile is the only Christian conservative wireless provider for a decade now.

00:45:39.900 Isn't that wild?

00:45:40.720 Ten years.

00:45:42.140 One of the reasons I'm glad to partner with him as we build a parallel economy and just realize that it doesn't have to be this way.

00:45:51.340 You know, can we just get some some companies that are not assaulting us all the time or can we get a company here or there just to not play the woke card every time they sit at the table?

00:46:05.200 Well, Patriot Mobile doesn't play that card at all.

00:46:08.120 They offer nationwide coverage, giving you access to all three major networks, which means you get the exact same coverage you're accustomed to because they're on the same cell towers.

00:46:17.520 But unlike the big mobile companies, they're not sending your money to fund leftist causes.

00:46:22.600 And you switch to Patriot Mobile, you will know that you support free speech, religious freedom, sanctity of life, Second Amendment, our military veterans, first responders.

00:46:32.880 That's what they take some of their profits and put those things towards.

00:46:37.020 So switching is really easy.

00:46:39.060 Thanks to their 100 percent U.S.-based customer service team, you can keep your number, keep your phone or upgrade,

00:46:45.480 and they'll help you find the best plan for your needs.

00:47:04.760 Neil, welcome to the program.

00:47:06.560 I am a huge fan.

00:47:08.240 Your book, The Fourth Turning, made a huge impact in my life.

00:47:15.480 Well, thank you, Glenn.

00:47:17.180 It's great to be on your show.

00:47:18.480 Thank you.

00:47:19.600 So The Fourth Turning is here.

00:47:22.520 I have been reading.

00:47:25.120 And before we get to The Fourth Turning is here, can you explain the turnings, if you will?

00:47:33.300 Yeah, this was something that Bill and I developed.

00:47:36.980 Actually, we did an earlier book back in 1991 called Generations, and it was really looking

00:47:42.640 at generations as the source of historical change, meaning, you know, generations are

00:47:49.600 shaped differently.

00:47:52.140 You know, each generation is uniquely shaped by its childhood experiences and as it comes

00:47:57.480 of age, right?

00:47:58.300 It's experiences coming of age.

00:47:59.860 And then about 30 or 40 years later, as parents and leaders, they in turn shaped history,

00:48:06.020 right?

00:48:06.620 Right.

00:48:07.040 And we, Generations is the first collective biography of America that anyone had ever written.

00:48:15.560 That is to say, retelling the entire story of America as a sequence of generational biographies,

00:48:20.880 right?

00:48:21.500 In other words, following the same group of people throughout their entire life and then starting

00:48:26.180 with the next group of people.

00:48:27.460 And what we found was that generations are very different.

00:48:31.260 This has always been true.

00:48:32.340 It's not just, you know, Xers and Boomers or Millennials and Xers, we're accustomed to

00:48:37.940 today, or Boomers and their World War II parents, right?

00:48:41.740 Right.

00:48:42.140 These differences have been with us since the founding, since the 17th century.

00:48:47.380 And what occurred to us as we were writing that book is that this is the source of some of

00:48:55.160 the otherwise unexplainable regularities in the rhythms of American history.

00:49:03.260 I mean, for example, the fact that we have these enormous periods of civic creative destruction

00:49:09.840 when the entire country goes through an upheaval of, you know, politics and economics, we really

00:49:18.260 redefine what our republic is.

00:49:20.560 And this happens about the length of a long human life apart, right?

00:49:24.160 We had this period of revolution and rebellion in the late 17th century, kind of coinciding

00:49:32.820 with the Glorious Revolution.

00:49:34.040 And then about a lifetime later, we had the American Revolution.

00:49:36.880 Then we had the Civil War.

00:49:38.700 Then we had World War II and the Great Depression.

00:49:41.000 And here we are again, Glenn.

00:49:43.520 You know what I mean?

00:49:44.460 This is like the ticking of a clock, you know, or a clock.

00:49:48.940 And roughly halfway in between these upheavals in the outer world, when we redefine politics

00:49:56.440 and economics and infrastructure and all that, we have these upheavals in the inner world,

00:50:01.600 which very conveniently in American history, we number.

00:50:05.960 So we called them the First Great Awakening, the Second Great Awakening, and so forth.

00:50:09.720 And this struck us as having very interesting generational roots, generational continuity,

00:50:17.240 right?

00:50:17.760 Because it's generations that come of age during an awakening that later in old age usually 0.62

00:50:24.780 take America into the next crisis.

00:50:26.960 Generations which, you know, come of age during a crisis usually preside over the next awakening

00:50:33.280 later in life.

00:50:34.120 And this has been true since, you know, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Walt Whitman, a generation

00:50:44.540 of prophets and religion founders and, you know, commune leaders who attended the Civil War.

00:50:52.080 And it was true for the generation born just after the Civil War, who took us really were 0.93

00:50:58.500 the wise old men and women of the World War II era.

00:51:02.740 But it suggests a rhythm.

00:51:06.940 And that's what we wanted to write about.

00:51:09.060 Now, this rhythm has four phases.

00:51:12.520 It's kind of like seasons of the year.

00:51:14.400 If you look at the spring season, this is the period in which, you know, institutions

00:51:21.500 are strong, individualism is weak.

00:51:24.680 And this is what we, recently in American history, we all recall the American high.

00:51:31.000 This was after World War II, right?

00:51:32.660 This was the presidencies of Truman and Eisenhower and John Kennedy.

00:51:36.440 Society had a very definite idea of where it wanted to go collectively.

00:51:42.400 But as individuals, we were very modest, right, about what we wanted.

00:51:46.200 It was, as William White wrote in The Organization Man, people had a strong social ethic.

00:51:51.780 The duty of each individual was to fit in.

00:51:54.120 I mean, that's what you're supposed to do, right?

00:51:56.000 Each person had a job to do based on gender, based on, you know, your aptitude for a different

00:52:02.900 kind of profession.

00:52:04.060 And that was it.

00:52:04.820 You didn't have much aspirations beyond that.

00:52:07.920 We were modest individually, but the nation did incredible things collectively.

00:52:13.020 I mean, everything from interstate highways to launching the Apollo moon launch program,

00:52:19.460 you know, and we managed to balance the budget every year, right, while feeding the world

00:52:27.620 and presiding over that period of growing global order and prosperity.

00:52:33.560 The second turning was the awakening, and that was the period that many listeners probably

00:52:41.600 remember, maybe as kids.

00:52:44.060 This was the, you know, 60s, 70s, early 80s.

00:52:47.940 And this was a period when all of America wanted to throw off all that social obligation,

00:52:53.040 all that conformity, all those rules.

00:52:55.040 And this started really with, started more on the left.

00:52:59.520 There's no question about that, mainly in the culture, throwing off, you know, patriarchy

00:53:05.020 and military conscription and all the rest.

00:53:09.500 And it ended, I think, a little bit more on the conservative side, you know, throwing out

00:53:13.820 regulations, cutting taxes and all the rest.

00:53:16.140 And so, but the one theme was we wanted to be a less ordered society.

00:53:22.280 We wanted individuals to kind of go more their own way.

00:53:25.260 And the biggest nightmare for boomers at that time was the oppressive middle class, right? 0.92

00:53:33.420 Pleasant Valley Sunday, that was their worst nightmare.

00:53:36.520 And they talk to millennials today, it's like middle class.

00:53:40.720 Sounds like a great idea.

00:53:41.940 Where do I sign up?

00:53:44.720 You see the difference, right?

00:53:46.820 And then you have the third turning, which is, we call an unraveling, and that's in many

00:53:53.800 ways the opposite of a high.

00:53:56.200 Individualism is strong and flourishing.

00:53:58.400 Institutions are weak and discredited.

00:54:00.620 And when we think of paradigmatic decades of an unraveling, we think of the roaring 90s

00:54:09.480 and the 1990s.

00:54:10.700 We also think of the roaring 20s, the 1850s and 1760s.

00:54:15.700 These were all decades of cynicism and bad manners, acting out in the culture, disrespecting

00:54:22.600 authority.

00:54:24.060 And in general, my kind of the key book of the 1990s to me was Francis Fukuyama.

00:54:34.560 You remember the end of history.

00:54:36.620 We were all, yeah, the government was going to fade away.

00:54:39.440 We would all be individuals living wherever in the world we wanted.

00:54:44.380 I guess, you know, on our laptops and a Starbucks somewhere, just contracting with each other

00:54:49.380 and enjoying infinite possibilities, right?

00:54:52.260 We wouldn't have families.

00:54:53.440 We wouldn't have roots.

00:54:54.540 We wouldn't have, right?

00:54:55.500 That was the image, right, of a world of individuals that wouldn't need anything.

00:55:02.160 And so individualism totally triumphed.

00:55:05.040 No institution or community left.

00:55:07.120 But history shows us that third turnings inevitably lead to fourth turnings.

00:55:14.220 And that's when instead of wanting to rebel against order, society wants more order.

00:55:22.420 And that's what we're living into today.

00:55:24.700 And the cutting edge generation for the awakening was boomers, but the cutting edge generation 0.95

00:55:30.240 now is millennials.

00:55:30.980 And they want a more ordered life.

00:55:33.860 I mean, you see it.

00:55:34.880 They want more community.

00:55:36.600 Their greatest fear is loneliness.

00:55:38.240 It's FOMO.

00:55:39.180 You know what I mean?

00:55:39.900 Yep.

00:55:41.240 And the way they invest is crowd investing.

00:55:44.540 I mean, they're all in these huge, you know, everything ETFs, right?

00:55:49.460 So the market goes up or down.

00:55:51.080 They all go down, up and down together.

00:55:52.540 And the entire world is being buffeted by this.

00:55:57.500 And we see this in these new populist movements around the world, often overtly authoritarian

00:56:03.980 because people want authority back again.

00:56:06.480 It's as simple as that.

00:56:08.540 And we've seen this before, and we're seeing it again.

00:56:12.560 And so the purpose of, as you know, the purpose of my writing the book is to take this up to

00:56:19.780 date, to bring it up to today, right?

00:56:22.040 And to hypothesize a little bit on where we're going and what the schedule is and, you know,

00:56:30.560 what we expect.

00:56:31.920 Okay.

00:56:32.180 So, you know, there's three theories out there that I have kind of melded into one.

00:56:39.740 Yours, and I don't know if you've read Michael Drew's work, Pendulum, How Past Generations

00:56:46.240 Shape Our Present and Predict Our Future.

00:56:48.200 He describes it as a pendulum and describes much of what you guys worked out, but he shows

00:56:56.140 it's an 80-year cycle.

00:56:57.520 You're showing it's an 80-year cycle.

00:56:59.660 And then the third theory that I've always found interesting is the Kondrachia wave, which

00:57:05.500 is also an 80-year cycle.

00:57:07.180 And it's all spring, summer, the arrogance of summer.

00:57:13.320 It's never going to end into fall.

00:57:16.660 You know, hey, let's deny this, deny this, deny this.

00:57:20.100 Oh, it looks like everything is dying to winter.

00:57:22.400 And then the green shoots again of spring.

00:57:25.960 And we are, if I understand, we are now heading into winter, correct?

00:57:35.380 Yeah, we're well into winter.

00:57:38.620 Well into winter.

00:57:39.940 Yeah.

00:57:40.260 I mean, we started, I think we entered this era.

00:57:44.080 I mean, these are eras.

00:57:45.160 These are generation-long eras.

00:57:46.760 So these are, you know, 22 years or so.

00:57:49.520 And we entered it with 2008, the global financial crisis, when we saw so many things begin to

00:57:56.960 change.

00:57:57.420 We saw democracies decline at the expense of authoritarian governments.

00:58:01.720 We saw global trade begin to decline as a share of global product.

00:58:06.580 I mean, in many ways, it was analogous to 1929, right?

00:58:10.520 Which is also a great global, you know, financial collapse, right?

00:58:14.680 And we've seen that, but we still have a ways to go.

00:58:18.840 Right.

00:58:19.460 And, you know, when Kondrakiev, who was Stalin's economic advisor, when he was asked, what's

00:58:26.080 better, capitalism, communism, he said, it's seasonal.

00:58:30.740 And you look at things, and capitalism is better because communism, when it starts to go cold

00:58:37.120 into winter, the system props everything up.

00:58:40.320 And so the system falls apart in the end.

00:58:43.680 It can't prop up life.

00:58:45.540 It's got to go in through these cycles.

00:58:47.280 Um, and we're doing that since 2008, we're propping everything up so it doesn't go into

00:58:55.100 a hard freeze, but we've bastardized everything.

00:58:57.980 And I'm, I'm wondering, do they always have to end in like war?

00:59:05.520 Well, typically they have, um, you know, every, every total war in American history has occurred

00:59:12.720 during a fourth turning and every fourth turning is at a total war.

00:59:16.620 It's a pretty close correspondence.

00:59:19.480 I, I would say it, it, you know, I, I don't like to be a pessimist.

00:59:23.560 So I like to say what it, what it precisely requires is not so much war.

00:59:28.620 What it requires is, um, collective mobilization, uh, on a mass scale.

00:59:35.860 And it's really hard to see how you do that other than sort of organized conflict.

00:59:40.580 But what happens typically is that as society begins to re-seek order, it begins to collectivize

00:59:47.980 again.

00:59:48.500 Today we see in America, blue zone, red zone, right?

00:59:51.380 I mean, this new tribal mentality.

00:59:54.080 This is what we saw during the 1930s.

00:59:56.840 Half of America thought that the 1930s was the red decade.

01:00:00.600 The other half thought it was the fascist decade.

01:00:03.640 You know what I'm talking about?

01:00:04.680 I mean, these are the, said that, you know, Franklin, Stalin, Roosevelt, right?

01:00:09.420 Well, and, and, and we have the new movie Oppenheimer out.

01:00:13.220 So we, we, we now realize how many of the, the greatest generation as, as young men and

01:00:19.160 women in the early twenties, we're, we're communists. 0.97

01:00:21.920 Right.

01:00:22.840 And he's the best in the break.

01:00:23.940 So let me take a one minute break here and then let's come back to, um, uh, where we

01:00:29.820 are as, as a country and as a people and what's headed our way in 60 seconds, American

01:00:38.120 financing, American financing, NMLS, one, eight, two, three, three, four, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

01:00:45.620 Been telling you about, uh, American financing for about 10 years now.

01:00:49.060 They've been around twice that amount.

01:00:51.760 I started talking to them before 2008.

01:00:54.520 They wanted me to do commercials for them.

01:00:56.400 And I said, no, I don't doing any commercials for any home loan organization.

01:01:01.820 They're like, no, no, no, we're not like those others.

01:01:05.080 That's why we're calling you.

01:01:06.640 And I say, yeah, well, we'll see after the collapse.

01:01:08.760 And about a year later, it collapsed and American financing was fine.

01:01:12.720 And so were the people.

01:01:14.440 Um, I, I, I want you to know that American financing is a differently run operation.

01:01:20.640 It is family owned, operated, kind of has that small family kind of, uh, take to it and are

01:01:28.620 not just trying to get your business.

01:01:31.360 They want to make sure that it's right for you because if it's right for you, it'll be

01:01:36.100 right for them.

01:01:36.920 Over 2000 of my listeners have called them just this year to help them save money.

01:01:41.880 Small number of those didn't actually have the credit score to qualify and American financing

01:01:46.640 ran them through their credit care program, which is free and helps boost people's credit

01:01:52.160 score.

01:01:53.180 What can they do for you?

01:01:55.300 One way to find out, call American financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to American

01:02:03.960 financing.net.

01:02:05.880 10 seconds, station ID.

01:02:11.880 So one thing before we go on to where we're headed, it is interesting to me that America,

01:02:23.600 uh, has had these turnings along with all of the West, uh, for instance, American revolution,

01:02:31.300 the French revolution, uh, world war, uh, world war two was the same, uh, you know, same thing

01:02:38.020 that was happening over at Germany was happening over here.

01:02:40.420 Uh, we had different results, but, um, there's the we generation and the me generation, and

01:02:48.840 these things generally happen.

01:02:50.820 Do they not in the we generation when we're all, we're all collective.

01:02:57.020 We generations are, are, are, are made not born, right?

01:03:02.240 Yes.

01:03:02.820 I mean, and that, that's the important part.

01:03:05.540 Um, so how do we, how do we avoid what, uh, how do we avoid going in when we have a collective

01:03:12.780 mindset going into something very un-American?

01:03:19.940 You know, this has been a struggle since the beginning, uh, every time because America

01:03:26.200 is by, by its culture and by its heritage, a individualist kind of, uh, right.

01:03:32.240 You know, uh, society and war has been difficult for that reason.

01:03:38.820 It was difficult for the revolutionaries.

01:03:40.900 Um, you know, uh, George Washington, uh, implored, uh, again and again, you know, that, that,

01:03:47.240 that Congress should then, that authorize them for this, for this great continental army.

01:03:51.760 He needed to, to fight the British. 0.93

01:03:53.800 And of course there were a lot of foot draggers and people who didn't want to do that.

01:03:57.860 Similarly in the civil war, similarly in, in, in world war two, uh, it was, Roosevelt was

01:04:04.280 very slow to be able to actually enact conscription.

01:04:08.160 Correct.

01:04:08.560 Uh, and, and we came very late to the table, uh, to the, the, the fight against fascism.

01:04:16.420 Um, and, and so it, it is a problem and, and forth turnings by their very nature of, of

01:04:23.540 collective mobilization put democracy to the test.

01:04:28.160 Right.

01:04:28.680 We're already seeing it today in America.

01:04:31.320 Yeah.

01:04:32.340 So with all of the things that are happening now, I've learned so much from you.

01:04:40.800 I, I think on what the role of people, my age is supposed to be.

01:04:45.520 Um, and I'd like you to take us through, um, what's, what's coming and what each of us in

01:04:53.160 our generations need to do and, and show us the hero generation that is coming because

01:05:00.700 I think that is, uh, really heartening.

01:05:03.540 And when you have that understanding of what is coming with the hero generation, it takes

01:05:10.180 some pressure off, except you have a role to play as well.

01:05:15.520 The Glenn Beck program.

01:05:17.700 If you're waking up every day, frustrated that you're going to have to face yet another

01:05:21.460 day of hurting pain is your body's way of letting, you know, something is wrong.

01:05:26.600 And most of the time, uh, it's trying to tell you that you've got inflammation in your

01:05:30.640 joints.

01:05:31.000 You have inflammation in your body.

01:05:32.460 It's, it's why we get sick.

01:05:34.520 It's why we have pain.

01:05:35.800 Inflammation is really bad.

01:05:37.620 You can find ways to mask the pain, but that doesn't work out all too well.

01:05:42.420 Sometimes, uh, sometimes you just wake up with the,

01:05:45.500 mask and you still feel the pain.

01:05:48.500 You just don't care enough.

01:05:50.420 The other option is fighting it, fighting your pain and fighting it wisely by reducing

01:05:58.000 the inflammation in your body.

01:05:59.680 Three week, quick start of relief factor.

01:06:02.480 Maybe your solution.

01:06:04.100 It's 1995.

01:06:05.060 It's a trial pack, not a drug developed by doctors.

01:06:08.120 However, to relieve inflammation, more than a million people have bought relief factors.

01:06:13.340 Quick start.

01:06:14.120 70% of them go on to order more month after month.

01:06:17.060 I'm one of them.

01:06:18.340 Relieffactor.com.

01:06:19.940 800.

01:06:38.220 Author Neil Howe and historian Neil Howe, joining us again.

01:06:52.500 He is the author of The Fourth Turning Is Here, a recent bestseller.

01:06:57.400 It is out and available, and I highly recommend you read it.

01:07:01.480 Neil, tell us what's coming, and how best to prepare, and what our roles are.

01:07:10.700 Well, what's coming is the climax.

01:07:15.980 You know, we've been in this period where tribal loyalties are deepening.

01:07:21.680 America's relationships in certain other parts of the world are fraying.

01:07:25.020 Fears of American breakup, and even the possibility of civil conflict is rising.

01:07:32.500 And history suggests that that should climax sometime in the next decade.

01:07:38.280 We think this period will be over, and a new first turning will begin by the early 2030s.

01:07:43.520 Right?

01:07:43.760 So that gives us about a decade.

01:07:46.300 And I think what you asked was the different roles generations will play, which is very interesting.

01:07:53.380 I mean, typically, what we call the prophet archetype, which is the aging, you know, generation that comes of age during the awakening, is typically, as it was for Abraham Lincoln's generation, is a generation which is very dominant in the culture all their lives, as boomers have been. 0.90

01:08:13.440 You know, I can't think of a millennial who doesn't know 60s and 70s music really, really well.

01:08:19.840 And for many of us boomers, we didn't have a clue about our parents' music.

01:08:26.060 We couldn't care less.

01:08:27.060 You know what I mean?

01:08:28.360 And that sense of cultural dominance that boomers have always had, younger generations at this time of crisis will look to boomers for that cultural continuity.

01:08:39.620 In other words, what is America?

01:08:41.760 How do we get back to what it was?

01:08:43.480 And we often call this generation the producer of the great champions in history, you know, those leaders that galvanize all generations to behave for the common good.

01:08:55.100 The generation beneath that, the Generation X, you know, those who came of age in the 80s and 90s, this would be the generation that's going to be squarely in midlife, right?

01:09:08.220 They're going to be the generals, the admirals, they'll be the on, they'll be on the scene leaders actually practically determining how the, how, whether the fourth turning ends well or ends badly.

01:09:22.120 And they will be decisive.

01:09:24.200 They will be as decisive in determining how it ends as Omar Bradley and George Patton and, you know, Ridgway and Dwight Eisenhower were in determining how, you know, that crisis ended, right?

01:09:37.680 So they will be, they will have the critical role.

01:09:40.940 And it's interesting because so many Gen Xers coming of age thought that they were, you know, had no purpose.

01:09:46.720 They were kind of out there at the end of history and they were a useless generation. 0.99

01:09:50.980 Can I tell you, I have felt in the shadow of the hippies my whole life, like the hippies just have screwed everything up and were constantly sweeping up after their mess.

01:10:04.500 And it now seems like, you know, you're talking about the, the profit generation, the, the, the profit generation has always let go.

01:10:15.440 At some point, these guys, at least in the ruling class are just hanging on until way beyond their ability to do anything.

01:10:24.840 And it's like, when will the hippies let go?

01:10:27.840 When will they let go?

01:10:29.380 When will the hippies let go?

01:10:31.160 Indeed.

01:10:31.620 And of course they're getting older and older, aren't they?

01:10:34.400 Right.

01:10:35.780 But, but they do let go.

01:10:37.740 And, and that's when the energies are released.

01:10:40.180 Right.

01:10:40.660 And suddenly the Xers, which are a generation of survivalists, pragmatists, uh, don't trust anything, but they know how to build stuff. 1.00

01:10:50.580 Right.

01:10:50.940 And they know how to get stuff done.

01:10:52.920 And interestingly enough, from their individualism, which they fostered in their, you know, a home alone childhood, they become leaders of a new community.

01:11:04.900 And that becomes very interesting trans transition for them.

01:11:08.740 Right.

01:11:09.040 Because they become those who kind of lead America into a new era of, of close community of, of national community.

01:11:18.280 And then of course the millennial generation, the, the sheltered special kids, right.

01:11:24.780 As the GI generation was early in life.

01:11:27.620 I mean, the GI generation was the first boy Scouts and girl Scouts, and they were, you know, sheltered by the progressive movement.

01:11:33.340 And, and, uh, as, as kids, and they, they came of age to fight world war II.

01:11:39.220 Millennials will have the same transition and they will transition into a generation that will be collectively the hero generation.

01:11:47.460 And of course that will be their right of passage.

01:11:49.660 That will be their transformation.

01:11:51.560 It will turn a generation of, of, uh, you know, Oppenheimers, right. 1.00

01:11:55.500 We were talking earlier about that movie, but a generation, which was filled with, uh, uh, radicals and didn't know which direction to go back in the 1930s to a generation, the majority of whom became the cornerstone of the American high, obviously in the late forties and fifties.

01:12:15.340 Um, and they were the founders of everything from suburbia to, uh, to, to the, uh, uh, to, to the, you know, kind of the, the black and white Ed Sullivan culture.

01:12:27.040 Right.

01:12:27.520 That everyone remembers sort of the stolid establishment that, uh, that boomers later rebelled from.

01:12:33.460 And that, that actually takes us into our description late in the book of what the next to first turning will be like, right.

01:12:41.040 Very different from what we're experiencing today.

01:12:44.260 But as, as if you would look forward from the late thirties, who would have ever imagined the 1950s?

01:12:51.000 I mean, that would have been science fiction.

01:12:53.740 Sure.

01:12:56.260 So are you, so you're optimistic that we, that we may, cause it's, it's, I think.

01:13:03.460 You know, people sometimes say fourth turning, it sounds like end of the world and all this.

01:13:07.640 And I say, yes, it's a extremely challenging time and it's, and it is the time of struggle and it's a time of trial.

01:13:15.180 But the only thing worse than a fourth turning is not having a fourth turn.

01:13:21.580 Imagine the trends today continuing to just deepen.

01:13:26.260 Yeah.

01:13:26.400 You know, the sense of rootlessness, the sense of, uh, uh, disempowerment by those who are poor and less educated, the sense of, uh, loss of community in America.

01:13:37.320 Imagine that just extends in depth.

01:13:39.780 I can't imagine a worse future than that.

01:13:42.340 But, well, isn't that kind of what happened in, in, uh, communist Russia?

01:13:47.440 I mean, it was just a continuation, uh, and never got any, it never got any better.

01:13:55.060 Um, you know, I, I, it, it seems to me that the progressive movement is just kind of grabs on to everything and then just holds it as a group.

01:14:05.480 And, uh, it just seems to get worse and worse, at least this, this version of, of what's happening.

01:14:12.180 Uh, and I'm, I'm concerned that do we have the stuff that hold, that held us together, uh, in World War II or in the war, uh, against slavery?

01:14:27.540 That's what everyone always wondered.

01:14:30.540 I mean, you look at the diary of, of John Adams, you know, back in, uh, in, in the early 1770s.

01:14:38.420 And he just said, I, I'm filled with anxiety and dread.

01:14:42.120 We don't have the virtue.

01:14:43.500 We don't have the brains.

01:14:44.800 We don't have the economy.

01:14:46.300 We don't, how can we possibly win this struggle?

01:14:48.800 Right.

01:14:49.360 It seemed hopeless to him.

01:14:50.960 And, and that sense of despair, as we go through this, this collective rite of passage is the same that we feel in our personal lives.

01:15:02.200 Right.

01:15:02.540 When we go through a new and very challenging period, but when we come out, we are transformed and we're usually transformed from the better.

01:15:13.240 And, and that's the positive side of it.

01:15:16.180 Um, William James once wrote a famous, it was actually a speech he delivered at Sanford University early in the 20th century.

01:15:24.700 It was called the moral equivalent of war.

01:15:27.700 And he asked the question, you know, he said, yeah, war is great for, you know, bringing us together as a state and it teaches young people to sacrifice for the community.

01:15:36.060 And he goes through all of its advantages and he said, could we invent anything else?

01:15:40.620 And by the end of the essay, you kind of wonder whether he actually believes it's possible, but he, but he asked his audience at one point, does anyone here believe that America would, would you have wished that the civil war had never happened?

01:15:57.100 It's kind of an interesting question back then, because of course, a lot of the people, civil war is still in the audience, right?

01:16:01.780 And he, and he answered his own question.

01:16:03.880 He said, I'm sure that none of you would have wished the civil war had never happened because we could not imagine the sense of progress, the sense of nationalism, the industrialism, you know, everything that's brought us together, made us a dynamic nation.

01:16:16.340 Had the civil war not happened, right?

01:16:18.220 It's kind of an interesting statement he made back then in 1906.

01:16:23.260 And, and, and yet then he asked the question, does anyone want such a thing to happen again?

01:16:28.140 And I'm sure almost none of all of you would say no, right?

01:16:32.720 And, but isn't that the same way we feel about our personal life?

01:16:36.420 Yes.

01:16:36.700 If you ask, would you wish that some traumatic event, I don't care what it is, maybe you, you lost a, maybe a divorce, you lost a spouse, you lost your business.

01:16:46.480 I don't care what it is, but you ask people, would they wish that it never have happened?

01:16:51.780 And on reflection, they'll probably say, no, I became a better person.

01:16:56.680 I became a wiser person.

01:16:58.240 I became a deeper person because of it.

01:17:00.840 And I think it's much the same for us collectively, Glenn.

01:17:06.240 So that is really hopeful.

01:17:08.600 And I, I, you know, I love your book, um, because I, I am filled with hope and I am filled with hope for the younger generations.

01:17:16.980 Um, uh, but I can't get past this.

01:17:20.400 What makes us different than Germany? 0.97

01:17:24.340 As I'm looking at the German, you know, starting at world war one, what they went through and demoralized.

01:17:33.340 And I mean, many of the same seeds are happening.

01:17:37.080 Uh, and I don't know, you know, left or right.

01:17:39.920 It, it doesn't matter.

01:17:41.300 It's wrong on both sides.

01:17:44.220 Um, how, how do we, what, what gives you the hope or what, what, what is different about us than, than they were?

01:17:53.680 I mean, they were people too, and a Republic.

01:17:57.000 I, you know, look, I believe in our national culture and I look at our track record, which historically has been very successful.

01:18:04.380 And I would say this, that when you talk about Germany and Japan or, or even Korea coming out of the last fourth turning.

01:18:12.500 America played a huge role in setting them on a better course.

01:18:18.780 And I think it's interesting, Glenn, that you look back over the last 10 years, you know, in Iraq and Afghanistan and everyone's saying, you can't build nations.

01:18:26.780 There's no such thing as nation building.

01:18:28.880 I mean, well, as I recall in the last fourth turning, America did a pretty darn good job.

01:18:34.300 I mean, look at those nations and what they became.

01:18:37.860 I mean, they were certainly different.

01:18:40.000 And it, and it was largely due to our occupation and our guidance.

01:18:44.540 I mean, I hate to say it, but, uh, the post-war era would have been very different for all of us, all of our generations, had we not produced a better world in the wake of, of, of, of, you know, the,

01:18:58.880 the A-bomb, right. 0.91

01:19:00.840 Um, and I think we did do the right thing.

01:19:04.360 And I think we did produce a better world.

01:19:07.100 I am, uh, I'm glad to talk to you and I would love to have you in for a podcast because there's so much more to cover.

01:19:13.880 Uh, there is a lot.

01:19:15.300 Yeah.

01:19:16.300 We can even talk more about Kondratia because he's an old, uh, he's an old, uh, hero of mine.

01:19:22.160 Oh, really?

01:19:22.780 Oh, good.

01:19:24.100 Um, well, let's, uh, if we can, let's schedule something, uh, sooner rather than later.

01:19:29.080 Cause I think your voice is, is so important and is, again, as I said at the beginning, it's played a huge role in my understanding and my hanging on to hope, quite honestly.

01:19:39.460 So thank you for that.

01:19:41.680 Thanks, Glenn.

01:19:42.520 You bet.

01:19:43.020 You bet.

01:19:44.060 Neil Howe, he is the, uh, uh, the author of the fourth turning is here.

01:19:49.420 Uh, he's written several books.

01:19:52.600 Fourth turning is the one that's probably the most famous that and, uh, uh, generations that he wrote, uh, early on.

01:20:00.560 But his new book is the fourth turning is here.

01:20:03.260 A must read back in just a second.

01:20:05.720 If, uh, if you're pretty much like everybody else, you probably like to just always get into your car and start the ignition and not have to worry about anything, you know, just go on your merry way.

01:20:17.180 I guess there are those are like, come on, don't start.

01:20:21.920 Unfortunately, your car has other plans from time to time.

01:20:25.740 You absolutely have no idea when something bad is going to happen.

01:20:30.100 It never happens at a good time.

01:20:31.660 Never.

01:20:32.000 I don't care how much money you have.

01:20:33.380 You're never like, Oh, what a great time for the car to break down.

01:20:36.900 And I just wanted to spend money fixing it.

01:20:39.780 I want you to enroll in car shield because you'll get a protection plan that starts as low as a hundred dollars a month.

01:20:47.500 It's flexible month to month coverage.

01:20:49.740 Your choice of an ASE certified mechanic, 24 seven coast to coast roadside assistance, complimentary towing rental car options, all of that.

01:20:58.080 But it is also, like I said, flexible month to month.

01:21:01.240 There's no long-term contract and car shield administrators will handle all of the paperwork and the repairs.

01:21:07.640 So maybe most importantly at all, the, um, uh, the whole inflation thing that we're all facing right now, car shield offers a price lock guarantee.

01:21:20.400 Your price will never go up.

01:21:22.840 No matter how many claims you file, it will never go up.

01:21:45.400 Join the conversation.

01:21:47.640 888-727-BECK.

01:21:50.340 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:22:00.600 Hey, a couple of program notes, uh, congratulations to Jason Whitlock, uh, for fearless, you know, Jason came on, uh, because he's more than sports, but he also is driven by sports.

01:22:17.940 And we wanted to make sure that we had a kind of some sports, uh, you know, I, a lot of people say, Glenn, you're enough.

01:22:24.640 Yeah.

01:22:25.120 Yeah.

01:22:25.560 You're deep sports authority, knowledge of sports.

01:22:27.940 Yeah, but then we brought on this Brett Favory, Favari, whatever. 0.60

01:22:36.780 And, uh, Warren Sack going to be joining Blaze TV's, uh, Jason Whitlock's Fearless every week.

01:22:43.820 Brett Favre.

01:22:45.300 Oh, is that how you say it?

01:22:46.260 Yeah.

01:22:46.640 It's a little bit of a different pronunciation to, uh, you know, Hall of Fame level players, uh, coming on to, uh, break down the NFL.

01:22:53.820 That'd be great.

01:22:54.440 Yeah.

01:22:55.200 That's weird.

01:22:55.640 I'm in the Hall of Fame too.

01:22:56.780 I didn't remember that.

01:22:57.580 You're in the radio Hall of Fame.

01:22:59.000 And even that's highly questionable.

01:23:00.480 Yeah.

01:23:00.700 Like, it does not seem like it should have occurred.

01:23:03.400 Yeah.

01:23:03.740 Um, but.

01:23:04.240 They'll pretty much let anybody in.

01:23:06.020 It's not the same with, uh, Mr. Favre.

01:23:08.800 Right.

01:23:09.340 Yeah.

01:23:09.680 Mr. Favre, he was able to accomplish quite a bit to get in.

01:23:13.240 So.

01:23:13.820 Yeah.

01:23:14.420 I've never heard of Mr.

01:23:15.640 Uh, Brett Favre, uh, before.

01:23:17.660 Never heard his, never heard that.

01:23:19.620 It'd be great to, uh, to listen to their breakdowns though.

01:23:22.020 I know you won't know what they're talking about, but it will be fascinating too.

01:23:24.500 I mean, I know, I know, obviously I know these two, uh, and, uh, Jason Whitlock, it, it is

01:23:29.400 going to be some great coverage.

01:23:31.200 If you're a sports fan, me, not so much, but, uh, I can recognize that'll be good.

01:23:37.320 Well, if you're not a sports fan too, you could listen today to the Megan Kelly show.

01:23:40.280 I'll be on there today.

01:23:41.340 I'm talking about all the news of the day as well.

01:23:43.460 Wow.

01:23:43.700 So I invite you to join and, uh, I will try to just, just, just drop in a couple anti-Glenn

01:23:50.220 mentions.

01:23:50.820 I try to do that every time I'm on.

01:23:52.180 I don't think that's.

01:23:53.020 That's just what the audience wants, I feel.

01:23:54.560 I don't think it is.

01:23:55.220 They don't say it, but I feel it.

01:23:56.360 I agree.

01:23:56.580 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:23:57.720 We got to stand together.

01:24:15.500 It's the chorus of life.

01:24:19.720 Stand up, stand, and hold the line.

01:24:22.580 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:24:37.160 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:24:44.260 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:24:46.300 Donald Trump made a haul on Friday and Saturday.

01:24:51.240 Uh, just on Friday, he made over $4 million in t-shirt sales of his, of his mugshot, uh,

01:25:00.460 and total over the weekend, $7.1 million in sales just at his website of his mugshot.

01:25:08.600 And, uh, African Americans, um, had a lot to say about it.

01:25:13.740 Listen to this.

01:25:14.540 Cut one.

01:25:17.280 What's your honest reaction to Trump's mugshot?

01:25:20.140 I think it's really a good thing for the black community.

01:25:22.360 And every time a mugshot come out of those said rappers, their album goes crazy.

01:25:26.660 Now that Trump is no longer a stranger to the culture, he's a part of it, it's going to backfire.

01:25:31.140 Trump is a brother now.

01:25:33.180 I'm sorry.

01:25:34.120 You go to, you go to God, you go to jail in Zone 6 Atlanta, you a brother.

01:25:38.760 These so-called blacks nowadays, we rockin' with Trump, man. 0.83

01:25:42.080 Even the youth, they know what time it is, man.

01:25:43.980 My first vote ever, ever, I'm, I'm, I'm saying to the man, man.

01:25:48.440 The more you indict, the more we unite.

01:25:53.460 You already know when the hood got your back.

01:25:56.880 Man, they deep in the hood, gangsters.

01:25:59.540 How about Trump 2024, you heard, man?

01:26:02.160 Woo, woo, wah, gangsters.

01:26:05.220 As you've seen his caravan ride through the hood in Atlanta and you've seen all the love he got, when I tell you I speak for the hood, I tell you this sincerely.

01:26:13.960 We don't like you anyway.

01:26:16.320 We don't like the government.

01:26:17.520 And we watch you f*** with the only man that's ever offered black people anything. 1.00

01:26:21.600 I think there might be a surprise for the Democrats when it comes to the minority vote.

01:26:29.520 We'll talk about that coming up in just a second.

01:26:32.160 Talk to you a lot about ESG, the environmental, social, and governance initiative companies are raving about.

01:26:39.480 Even BlackRock, the world's heavyweight with $9.4 trillion in assets, is now rethinking their stance.

01:26:47.880 Did you hear this?

01:26:48.540 In fact, there's a story in the show prep today, if you don't get it, just get a free email newsletter at glenbeck.com.

01:26:54.900 A story today about how the government is starting to put the pressure on BlackRock because BlackRock has the financial pressure.

01:27:04.360 And they're like, ah, we can't do this very much longer.

01:27:09.680 It's bad.

01:27:10.900 If BlackRock is having second thoughts, kind of says a lot, doesn't it?

01:27:16.080 Chaotic times are here.

01:27:17.860 That's why Goldline is here with a rock-solid offer.

01:27:57.340 Call them right now.

01:27:58.920 866-GOLD-LINE.

01:28:01.080 Okay, so I don't know if you saw all of the rappers and everybody else saying this is the Bill Clinton thing.

01:28:13.540 Remember, Bill Clinton became the first black American president because he was caught, you know, having sex in the Oval and then lying about it.

01:28:25.320 And the man came after him, and that's why they called him the first black president.

01:28:30.680 Did you know that?

01:28:31.240 I mean, I remember hearing that phrase, but I did not know.

01:28:33.400 I just thought, you know.

01:28:35.060 If that's because he played the saxophone or something.

01:28:36.860 No, no.

01:28:37.740 It was because of the Monica Lewinsky scandal. 0.99

01:28:42.780 African Americans identified with him being persecuted.

01:28:46.820 Okay.

01:28:47.180 Okay?

01:28:47.840 Okay.

01:28:48.060 That's why they called him that, when actually the first black president was Barack Obama.

01:28:54.380 Really?

01:28:55.140 Yes.

01:28:55.800 Yes.

01:28:56.280 Not Bill Clinton.

01:28:57.620 Wow.

01:28:57.820 So, it looks like the same thing is happening with the African American community, except there is something more important than just him being persecuted.

01:29:10.960 It's the actual stats.

01:29:12.680 U.S. Census Bureau estimated, under the Kennedy administration, more than 45% of non-whites were living under the poverty line.

01:29:23.920 45% of those of a different color than white.

01:29:28.900 Lowest ever recorded percentage of black families living under the threat of hunger, crime, and disease went from 45% in the Kennedy era, all the way down to 16.13% under the Trump administration.

01:29:49.000 He didn't do a war on poverty.

01:29:51.080 He just said, hey, everybody, go out, get a job, and I'm going to cut some regulations for you so it'll be good for business.

01:30:01.320 Hey, believe in yourself.

01:30:03.780 And poverty went down in the black community to 16.3%.

01:30:08.900 Now, it is at 19.5%.

01:30:13.340 Now, you'd say, well, that started during COVID.

01:30:16.220 Yes, it did.

01:30:16.980 The African American poverty rate was at 19.5% because of COVID.

01:30:24.240 Now, the president has worked his magic, and it is 19.5%.

01:30:31.660 So, zero improvement for the African American community, which, I don't know.

01:30:39.820 I think that matters.

01:30:41.800 This is one of the most effective policies of the left.

01:30:44.980 Usually, it makes things worse.

01:30:46.280 If it kept it even, that's incredible.

01:30:49.760 No, it didn't get much, much worse?

01:30:52.320 No, it did not.

01:30:53.240 Wow.

01:30:53.780 Yeah, it did not.

01:30:55.320 So, well, you're right then.

01:30:56.920 You know, I should look at the silver lining.

01:30:59.740 I'm a sunny side guy.

01:31:01.420 Because there's really nothing.

01:31:03.960 Let's go through it.

01:31:05.480 Defense, worse.

01:31:07.020 Oh, yeah.

01:31:07.260 World standing, demonstrably worse.

01:31:11.860 Economy, worse.

01:31:13.780 The inflation rate.

01:31:15.440 Wait, what if you compare it to the worst of April 2020?

01:31:20.380 Let's release some ads about Bidenomics that compare today to April 2020 and see what happens.

01:31:26.160 Don't get me started with Bidenomics.

01:31:28.200 Have you seen the White House?

01:31:29.640 Buy it.

01:31:30.240 Only a clip.

01:31:31.040 Okay.

01:31:31.500 Only a clip of it.

01:31:32.400 This is the president.

01:31:34.020 I just want you to listen to that because I really thought this was a bit.

01:31:38.600 And I was looking at the president thinking, wow, CGI has gotten so good.

01:31:44.100 Yeah.

01:31:44.540 Okay.

01:31:44.960 And the reason why, not what he was saying, but how he was saying it.

01:31:49.000 You know, because at some point he's like, and I'm very energetic about doing all these great stuff.

01:31:54.560 Yeah, because this is a whiteboard video.

01:31:56.980 And to understand it visually, because it's important to understand what it looks like if you were listening on the radio.

01:32:02.420 It is a, it's Biden standing in front of a whiteboard, a traditional whiteboard that you'd have in a business meeting.

01:32:07.920 Except he's not using the whiteboard at all.

01:32:11.160 It's seemingly just set up like it's a screen.

01:32:14.400 And then they're putting graphics on the whiteboard in post-production.

01:32:19.500 Oh, Stu, it gets better.

01:32:21.580 It gets better than that.

01:32:22.720 But my point, before we get to the, to back up what you're saying here, is that this is a produced video.

01:32:30.000 Like, he could have cut all of these lines 30 times, right?

01:32:34.040 And then they could have put it, made it incredibly interesting.

01:32:37.000 This is the best they got.

01:32:37.940 This is the best they could get out of this guy.

01:32:38.900 This is not like an off-the-cuff press conference where he's tired coming off a plane.

01:32:43.260 No.

01:32:43.620 This is him in full performance mode.

01:32:46.480 Yes.

01:32:47.100 This is him in re-election.

01:32:49.700 I'm ready for the next four years.

01:32:51.980 This is supposed to convince you to be excited, vote, and donate to his campaign.

01:32:58.080 Right.

01:32:58.840 Here it is.

01:33:00.100 I want to share with you my economic vision to grow our economy.

01:33:03.460 Stop.

01:33:03.820 Stop.

01:33:04.180 Stop.

01:33:04.400 I want to share with you my what?

01:33:06.780 My comic vision to grow our economy.

01:33:10.000 Okay.

01:33:10.320 Go ahead.

01:33:10.920 And the great part, as that's happening, there's this really awkward slow zoom in on an empty

01:33:16.580 whiteboard.

01:33:17.280 And you just see his left hand in the shot still.

01:33:20.800 I was like, what is going?

01:33:23.180 They have every person in Hollywood.

01:33:25.860 None of them can work right now.

01:33:27.420 They're all free, available.

01:33:29.560 Everyone's on strike.

01:33:30.680 There's no production going on.

01:33:32.500 They couldn't get anyone here to make this halfway decent.

01:33:34.880 I think they're saying, why spend the money?

01:33:37.160 He's gotten here with just being in the basement.

01:33:40.920 Right.

01:33:41.440 How much will they tolerate?

01:33:43.860 Go ahead.

01:33:44.500 Economic vision to grow our economy from the middle out and the bottom up, not top down.

01:33:49.760 He's not even in the shot.

01:33:51.000 Nope.

01:33:51.680 Trickle down economics is the belief.

01:33:53.140 What was it?

01:33:53.800 That we should put taxes for all of these big corporations and expect it to trickle down

01:33:58.180 to everyone else.

01:33:59.120 And we should shrink public investment in roads, bridges, and waters.

01:34:03.040 He looks like a corpse.

01:34:05.100 And he legitimately looks like he is in a haunted house right now.

01:34:09.300 This is the guy that when you walk in Jeff Dunham's angry old man puppet.

01:34:13.400 He really does.

01:34:13.960 He looks like you'd come into like a haunted mansion and he'd be like just standing there

01:34:21.100 in the corner and you wouldn't notice him and you'd turn around and he'd be there and

01:34:24.020 like, you know, he's holding like a platter with like a head on it.

01:34:28.460 That's why it looks like that.

01:34:29.600 It's really creepy.

01:34:30.920 Except he's not scary because you don't think he could chase you.

01:34:36.380 No.

01:34:37.120 You know what I mean?

01:34:38.140 You'd have to actually lift the axe up, put it on your neck, and then hope that he fell

01:34:44.560 over on the axe.

01:34:45.880 Right.

01:34:46.620 And it probably still wouldn't kill you, but you'd have a bad scratch on your neck.

01:34:51.360 You would be able to escape with a leisurely stroll.

01:34:53.780 That I will say.

01:34:54.840 Yes.

01:34:55.160 Yeah.

01:34:55.460 Yes.

01:34:55.940 Or a toddler's crawl.

01:34:58.140 Here we go.

01:34:58.900 Go ahead.

01:34:59.460 Blew up the deficit, increased inequity, and weakened the infrastructure of America.

01:35:04.300 They trickled down.

01:35:05.060 And it made it harder for folks to get to the middle class.

01:35:08.160 That's until now.

01:35:09.860 This is just, stop for a second.

01:35:12.300 Just a fact check this.

01:35:14.320 Yeah.

01:35:14.680 The middle class is disappearing. 0.97

01:35:16.240 People say this all the time.

01:35:17.780 This is actually true, right?

01:35:19.440 Like this is a provable fact.

01:35:21.860 But where are they going?

01:35:25.000 They are going through this period he's complaining about, not his presidency, unfortunately, but

01:35:30.660 the period he's complaining about, the rise of Reaganomics, trickle-down economics, they

01:35:34.960 are leaving the middle class, and they are going to the upper middle class.

01:35:38.940 That is, you can see it over and over and over again.

01:35:41.420 When you break it into the five quintiles, they're coming out of the middle quintile and

01:35:44.640 going to the upper middle quintile.

01:35:46.800 This has happened.

01:35:47.900 It's provable.

01:35:48.760 It's not happening now.

01:35:49.740 It's not.

01:35:50.140 It's reversing itself when they're implementing their plans.

01:35:53.460 Because they're going to fix it.

01:35:54.300 But like people leaving the middle class is good if they're going up. 0.99

01:35:59.360 Yes.

01:35:59.700 Right?

01:35:59.880 Like that's what you want.

01:36:00.760 Yes.

01:36:01.380 And leaving the lower class and going into the middle.

01:36:04.620 Right?

01:36:04.740 The people who are being replaced are going to be.

01:36:06.920 Well, the 45% that, you know, were below the poverty line, and under Trump, it was 16%.

01:36:14.120 They didn't go into an invisible group.

01:36:19.080 They went into a either lower middle class or middle class group.

01:36:25.620 Yeah.

01:36:26.140 Improving their lot in life.

01:36:28.100 Yeah.

01:36:28.340 But if you compare it to April 2020, no one had a job.

01:36:32.440 It's crazy how bad these are.

01:36:34.240 I mean, it's just, I just, I really don't understand it.

01:36:38.940 By the way, there's a huge mural now in Atlanta of Trump's mugshot.

01:36:47.020 But, I mean, I think this is going to be, I don't know how to take, I mean, it's interesting.

01:36:52.460 I mean, one of the first polls came out since the debate happened.

01:36:56.500 And Trump is down six points.

01:36:58.900 DeSantis is up eight points.

01:37:00.600 And Haley is up six points.

01:37:02.040 We're going to talk to Donald Trump tomorrow, by the way, about this.

01:37:04.460 He's on the air with us tomorrow.

01:37:05.540 So, we can ask him about all of this.

01:37:07.660 But there is, I think, a weird thing going on on the right right now, trying to figure

01:37:13.520 out how to deal with this.

01:37:14.600 Because it's like, you have to, you want to be defensive of a guy who's being persecuted.

01:37:19.780 Yeah.

01:37:20.180 That's a natural response to that.

01:37:21.960 And at the same time, people are looking at this and saying, like, well, how does this

01:37:24.880 all play out?

01:37:26.100 We know that they're coming after him.

01:37:27.740 And I don't want to, you know, I'm worried about going down this road.

01:37:31.460 And then what if he does lose?

01:37:32.620 What if they do throw him in prison?

01:37:33.720 What happens to our country?

01:37:35.160 We get this guy again for four more years?

01:37:36.700 It's a tough thing to work through for a lot of people.

01:37:39.240 And, you know, the problem is we almost need, we almost need like two presidents for this

01:37:45.080 next job.

01:37:46.320 And, you know, I know we can't have one, but he is, he is so focused on what he's going

01:37:53.280 through because, and rightfully so, he has to be.

01:37:56.260 But also for the rest of America, what's happening to him is just a foretelling of what's going

01:38:03.900 to happen to us if they're allowed to get away with it.

01:38:06.700 You know, look at what Elon Musk, what's happening.

01:38:09.140 DOJ is going after Elon Musk now because, you know, he's refuses to put minorities in

01:38:14.180 space.

01:38:14.660 But I think a lot of New Yorkers would say if that's where they can keep them, that's 0.83

01:38:18.760 okay.

01:38:19.460 Right?

01:38:19.920 New York.

01:38:20.620 You love them.

01:38:21.440 Ask Kathy Hochul. 0.88

01:38:23.020 Yeah.

01:38:23.980 Anyway, you know, he is fighting this massive corruption.

01:38:28.920 How the president is going to be able to fight for himself and fight against the DOJ and all

01:38:40.920 of the corruption that is in the deep state.

01:38:44.300 That's, that's a hard job.

01:38:46.720 It's going to be really, really difficult and it's going to be fascinating to watch it

01:38:50.540 play out.

01:38:51.020 I know we say that often, but it's true. 1.00

01:38:52.760 Like I, this could go a thousand different directions.

01:38:56.020 Oh yeah.

01:38:56.360 I have no idea really, honestly, at the end of the day, how this is going to look in a

01:39:00.060 year.

01:39:00.200 No, a hobbit wearing the one ring to rule them all could be the next president. 1.00

01:39:07.220 Could be.

01:39:07.900 There you go.

01:39:08.620 Could be.

01:39:09.120 I can step up.

01:39:10.500 Hey, I got this ring.

01:39:11.800 I'm wearing it.

01:39:12.680 It's my precious.

01:39:13.860 Vote for me.

01:39:14.560 And everybody suddenly would just go, you know what?

01:39:16.740 Could happen.

01:39:16.980 I like my precious.

01:39:18.060 Sure.

01:39:18.620 Sure.

01:39:19.040 At any point.

01:39:19.820 At any point it could happen.

01:39:21.640 I'm, I, I, it really is fascinating to see, like, we don't know, you know, I was trying

01:39:25.820 to think about, we were, we were talking about this on the, um, uh, election, uh,

01:39:30.400 post show after, excuse me, the debate post show of the other night on blaze TV.

01:39:35.540 And we were, I was like, give me your percentage right now.

01:39:37.820 If you're ever looking at the field, you go, uh, Trump, DeSantis, and the rest of the

01:39:42.780 field, give me percentage odds of all of them.

01:39:45.420 And you start working through that.

01:39:46.660 And you're like, obviously Trump's the heavy favorite.

01:39:48.460 He's way ahead.

01:39:49.160 And, you know, still in every poll, even, even early States, DeSantis, I think, thought

01:39:53.020 it quitted himself pretty, pretty well, equipped himself pretty well in that debate.

01:39:56.500 And he was, uh, you know, uh, it seemingly has done pretty well in the, in the polls

01:40:00.880 afterward.

01:40:01.580 And he saw it like Nikki Haley, seemingly people liked her performance.

01:40:04.560 Some people like the vague, it was sort of split on the vague, but you go through that

01:40:07.800 and you, is he under attack now?

01:40:09.280 He really is, but you can come up with like a percentage of how you break that out.

01:40:13.340 And then you have to stop and think, well, what if they put Donald Trump in prison?

01:40:16.800 Does that make him more likely to get the nomination?

01:40:18.780 Does it make him less likely to get the nomination?

01:40:20.960 Do you have to change completely your percentages and how this breaks out?

01:40:25.100 It's almost, you almost have to game plan this different ways.

01:40:29.140 It's like a flow chart.

01:40:29.940 You're going down these roads and you don't know which, which way to go.

01:40:32.520 No, I think you just, uh, I think you just vote for the person you believe in.

01:40:36.820 Oh, I, I never think that should influence your vote.

01:40:39.940 When you're game planning, it's just like, I'm saying as an analyst to game plan, to figure

01:40:44.820 out what percentage chance a given candidate has, how can you answer the chance of Ron

01:40:50.720 DeSantis?

01:40:51.380 We don't know the answer of whether Donald Trump is going to be in prison or not.

01:40:54.900 And when you don't know how the American people will react to that, that could make him a

01:40:59.380 bigger, I mean, no idea.

01:41:01.840 Yeah.

01:41:02.720 Literally anything can happen.

01:41:04.760 Anything can happen.

01:41:05.620 I believe carrot top will be our next president.

01:41:08.000 I don't know how I just assume it's going to occur.

01:41:10.840 Probably.

01:41:11.360 He's the owner of my precious.

01:41:13.020 Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

01:41:14.980 It's a my Patriot supply.

01:41:16.740 You need to have self-reliance as a tool that you keep in your back pocket for when emergency

01:41:21.700 situations arise.

01:41:22.900 Why?

01:41:23.300 Well, if, and when things go sideways and there's a food shortage, you had to grow anything.

01:41:30.700 Do I know God?

01:41:32.240 No.

01:41:32.500 Yeah.

01:41:32.680 Do you trust Joe Biden's government to help you out?

01:41:35.000 I mean, he's doing a bang up job in Hawaii, isn't he?

01:41:38.020 You'll be sitting there without emergency food on hand.

01:41:40.420 And Joe will be telling you about the time that he and he and Jill almost starved to death

01:41:46.180 that one day they couldn't make it to the McDonald's.

01:41:49.460 And they, they thought they were going to miss breakfast.

01:41:51.940 And sure enough, they got there at a 1029 and McDonald's would still make it for him, but

01:41:58.700 they almost, they almost starved that morning.

01:42:01.100 Same thing.

01:42:01.680 Exactly the same.

01:42:02.540 Exactly the same.

01:42:04.160 My Patriot supply.

01:42:05.720 Prepare with Glenn.com.

01:42:07.240 Go there.

01:42:07.500 Now you'll save $200 on your three month emergency food kit from my Patriot supply, wide variety

01:42:12.920 of delicious meals, offering 2000 calories every day from optimum strength under stress.

01:42:19.660 Before things happen, please go to my Patriot supply or prepare with Glenn.com.

01:42:27.260 That's prepare with Glenn.com.

01:42:31.200 10 seconds.

01:42:32.060 Station ID.

01:42:42.020 So I don't, I don't know if you saw what the Canadian foreign minister, uh, said.

01:42:47.700 I know you were a big fan of the Canadian foreign minister.

01:42:50.420 Oh yeah.

01:42:50.940 Yeah.

01:42:51.820 I'm a groupie.

01:42:52.840 Yeah.

01:42:53.640 Melanie Jolly.

01:42:54.800 Oh, Melanie.

01:42:55.780 Yes.

01:42:56.060 And I knew the name.

01:42:56.780 You didn't need to say the name.

01:42:57.580 Oh, I know.

01:42:58.180 I'm saying some other people may have needed to hear the name.

01:43:00.220 So foreign affairs minister, uh, Melanie Jolly, is said in an interview that Canada is working

01:43:08.760 on quote, a game plan for the outcome of America's upcoming presidential election.

01:43:19.160 Canada is coming up with a game plan.

01:43:23.280 Uh, apparently, uh, this is a quote foreign affairs.

01:43:28.920 Uh, this is a quote from, uh, the, uh, national post foreign affairs minister.

01:43:33.760 Melanie Jolly says Canada has been considering a game plan for how it will respond.

01:43:38.300 If the United States takes a far right authoritarian shift after next year's presidential election.

01:43:44.900 Now I'm trying to, I'm trying to figure out, is that just Donald Trump or is that also that

01:43:52.280 very fascistic governor of Florida?

01:43:54.660 And I've actually heard the extremist, um, worse than Donald Trump, the vague.

01:44:02.880 Oh, I mean, everyone's always worse when they, when they become a threat, they become worse.

01:44:07.480 Canada will be okay.

01:44:08.340 If we elect Asa Hutchinson.

01:44:10.580 Really?

01:44:11.180 Yeah.

01:44:11.320 They're going to be okay.

01:44:12.020 I doubt it.

01:44:12.640 They're going to be okay.

01:44:13.220 Honestly, if Asa somehow gets the nomination, which is not going to occur, but if he did,

01:44:17.380 they would say he's more dangerous than Donald Trump too.

01:44:19.700 She reportedly added, I will work with my colleagues and with the mayors of the provincial

01:44:24.900 premiers and with the business community and with the unions and everyone in the country.

01:44:30.700 So we are regardless rather, uh, regardless of the election outcome.

01:44:35.960 Yeah.

01:44:36.420 Here's, here's your plan, Canada.

01:44:37.720 This is how it works.

01:44:38.540 You say, congratulations to fill in name as they've won the next presidency of the United

01:44:43.740 States.

01:44:43.960 We, we are encouraged and we excited to work with him or her in the future.

01:44:47.960 Yeah.

01:44:48.560 That's kind of the end of it.

01:44:49.480 That's how you do it.

01:44:49.820 That's it.

01:44:50.180 That's your plan.

01:44:51.300 I don't know.

01:44:52.100 I mean, it's kind of like our plan.

01:44:55.220 I mean, I don't think we have, you know, nobody's ever drawn up war plans against Canada

01:44:59.840 because we don't need to.

01:45:02.380 We just go and take over.

01:45:05.160 That's how it, there's our big strategy session.

01:45:09.660 I don't know.

01:45:10.160 Trudeau's tough.

01:45:11.440 Uh, he, I mean, at any point he could get into blackface and who knows what happens 0.55

01:45:15.340 after that.

01:45:15.420 I'm going to give you such a slap.

01:45:16.580 I'm going to do it, America.

01:45:19.060 Okay.

01:45:31.480 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:45:32.960 You want to know a tragic statistic?

01:45:38.380 Recent survey of hundreds of post-abortive women have found 60% of them would have preferred 0.63

01:45:44.920 to give birth.

01:45:46.660 They just didn't feel like they had the support from others or the financial security.

01:45:52.920 60% that's the reason.

01:45:55.740 This is where pre-born steps in.

01:45:58.860 They're there for women during the darkest hour when they're deciding between life and 0.99

01:46:02.620 death for their child.

01:46:04.020 But they're also there for them afterward.

01:46:06.800 Giving a woman a free ultrasound introduces her to her baby, doubling the chance that she'll 0.96

01:46:12.100 choose life.

01:46:12.800 And when she does, pre-born is there to help with up to two years of additional support.

01:46:19.340 When you support pre-born, you not only support women, you actually empower them.

01:46:24.760 That's something the left only thinks it understands.

01:46:59.140 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

01:47:06.360 We're glad you're here.

01:47:08.540 You know, I don't know how I feel about this story.

01:47:13.800 Israel TV's Channel 12 News released an investigative report about the five red heifers that were

01:47:23.180 just brought to the Jewish state last September.

01:47:25.920 and the supposed funneling of government funds to construct the third temple.

01:47:32.320 Now, for those of you who know how the story ends, this could be a very exciting time.

01:47:40.320 It could also be a very terrifying time.

01:47:43.400 Um, the, uh, last month, a journalist tweeted about an experiment conducted, uh, by Bar Ilan

01:47:52.060 University professor, uh, Amar, who attempted to determine how many people could be ritually

01:47:58.040 purified by one red heifer.

01:48:00.940 Apparently one has enough to purify 660 billion, uh, people, which, you know, there's not that

01:48:08.040 many.

01:48:08.280 So I don't know why they got the other three had ref red heifers.

01:48:11.380 Um, but apparently, uh, there's the reports now on Israeli TV claiming that there are plans

01:48:19.000 and everything is in place to rebuild the third temple, which means if I understand it correctly,

01:48:26.900 that that building there on the temple mountain now, it's got a gold dome, I don't remember

01:48:33.380 what it is exactly, would have to be deconstructed in some way or another.

01:48:40.100 I, I, I, I just, I just not sure.

01:48:43.600 I think that's a big stumbling block, you know what I mean?

01:48:46.520 Yeah.

01:48:46.880 Yeah.

01:48:47.200 I mean, I think it's one that's coming, uh, I don't know when, but, uh, you know, you could

01:48:52.040 be prepared, but you know, it's like, uh, I'm going to marry, I'm going to marry a Stu's

01:48:58.320 wife someday. 1.00

01:48:59.020 I've already got the tuxedo.

01:49:00.800 I've, I've got everything ready except you haven't really talked to Lisa about it yet.

01:49:06.920 She's still married to Stu and happily married.

01:49:09.880 Yeah.

01:49:11.120 Yeah.

01:49:13.260 Let's not go crazy for the analogy here.

01:49:15.640 I know.

01:49:15.780 I know.

01:49:16.460 Exaggerating things for the audience, but I know, I know what you're mean.

01:49:19.220 Yeah.

01:49:19.440 I know what you're trying to say there.

01:49:20.700 I will say that having the extra three halfers, it's good to be prepared. 1.00

01:49:24.340 It is.

01:49:24.880 You know, it is.

01:49:25.600 It's always good to have a little bit extra.

01:49:27.920 I'd like to see the number of how many purifications it can perform a little bit farther away from

01:49:34.120 six 60, you know, just a little bit farther away.

01:49:38.620 I mean, is that, could it be maybe six more?

01:49:44.340 I mean, I'd prefer six less, but I'm just, uh, I'm just saying, just saying.

01:49:52.760 So, uh, Joe Biden, uh, is now talking about everybody getting the new COVID-19 vaccine.

01:50:00.840 Uh, and he's requested more funding from Congress.

01:50:03.620 How is this a story?

01:50:04.900 How is it happening?

01:50:05.880 I don't understand like what we have this system in the United States.

01:50:09.680 This is my understanding of the system.

01:50:11.140 You tell me where I have it wrong.

01:50:12.400 Cause I definitely have it wrong.

01:50:13.860 Yeah, I do.

01:50:14.800 Like there are things.

01:50:17.840 The federal government.

01:50:19.720 That's how you get it.

01:50:20.580 That's how you got it wrong.

01:50:21.400 Okay, good.

01:50:21.780 Okay.

01:50:22.220 There are things that happen in, in life, right?

01:50:24.760 They're called illnesses, disease, ailments, all sorts of things.

01:50:29.000 And companies make things that they believe will, uh, help alleviate the symptoms, cure

01:50:36.520 them, make all sorts of medicines for all sorts of things.

01:50:40.100 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:50:41.000 And I understand that they release them.

01:50:44.320 You go and buy them.

01:50:45.320 You get prescribed these medications.

01:50:46.800 You decide you make the choice as to what you want to do with them, right?

01:50:50.440 That's how it's, that's how it's always worked.

01:50:52.480 Right.

01:50:52.560 Now I understand that a pandemic and what we dealt with COVID was a little bit different

01:50:57.160 than that.

01:50:57.680 And there was a sort of a rush to, Hey, we, the government needs to pay for this, uh, because

01:51:02.960 you know, we all like, it's an emergency and blah, blah, blah.

01:51:06.300 Okay.

01:51:06.640 All right.

01:51:07.080 We were there.

01:51:08.040 We kind of remember that going on, but like it's 2023 now.

01:51:13.320 Yeah.

01:51:13.720 Why would, why would Joe Biden have anything to do with them releasing a new vaccine?

01:51:19.460 Why?

01:51:19.800 If they want to release a new vaccine, wait a minute, wait a minute, you're saying,

01:51:22.540 if I may paraphrase Glenn, where is the pharmaceutical arm of the government in the

01:51:30.380 constitution?

01:51:31.260 Yeah.

01:51:31.560 Is that what you're saying?

01:51:32.600 Where is that?

01:51:33.080 Yeah.

01:51:33.320 Because like if Pfizer or Moderna or Johnson and Johnson or any company wants to make a

01:51:41.260 COVID vaccine and put it on the market and go for it, let people decide whether they

01:51:45.880 want to take it or not.

01:51:47.260 That's a process.

01:51:48.260 I understand the process.

01:51:49.640 The things I don't understand is how we now infinitely pay for all of these vaccines.

01:51:56.660 Like I, why, why are we, why, why, like, but why come to me as a child and a child always

01:52:04.120 asks why?

01:52:05.640 Yeah.

01:52:06.360 Yeah.

01:52:07.260 Well, Dr.

01:52:07.960 And I'm going to butcher the name, Dr.

01:52:09.840 Jay Bhattacharya.

01:52:11.480 Bhattacharya.

01:52:12.280 We've had him on the show, haven't we?

01:52:13.640 I think we have.

01:52:14.260 You probably butchered his name when he was on the show, too.

01:52:15.900 Oh, I'm sure I did.

01:52:17.000 He's a professor of medicine at Stanford, one of the co-authors of the Great Barrington

01:52:21.860 Declaration.

01:52:22.340 He said the president's comments that all Americans will likely be advised to get a

01:52:29.820 new COVID vaccine as new variants spread is, quote, irresponsible.

01:52:35.100 He said the president said, I signed off this morning on a proposal.

01:52:40.860 We have to present to Congress a request for additional funding.

01:52:43.440 Again, why, why, why we don't need any more funding tentatively, not decided.

01:52:48.000 Finally, yet tentatively, it is recommended and it would likely be recommended that everybody

01:52:52.800 get it no matter whether they got it before the good doctor said, you know, it's never

01:53:00.960 occurred to me that an American president would be the number one spokesperson for a

01:53:05.200 pharmaceutical company.

01:53:06.200 But here we are.

01:53:07.840 It's irresponsible to make this kind of public health advice for the entire American public

01:53:13.140 in the absence of excellent random randomized trial evidence.

01:53:18.200 We don't even have which is done with this vaccine yet.

01:53:21.340 No, let alone have it tested.

01:53:23.140 Like, I don't even think they're done with it yet.

01:53:25.200 Yeah, I think they just are getting to the point where they're, you know, like seeing

01:53:29.220 that's putting it into these tests.

01:53:30.680 Again, that's that's the problem that I pointed out on Friday's program when I played

01:53:35.580 the commercial for Ozempic.

01:53:38.780 Oh, yeah.

01:53:39.240 The very long series of disclaimers.

01:53:41.620 Yeah, which it was 50 seconds of disclaimer of the one minute.

01:53:47.160 Five zero.

01:53:47.940 Yeah.

01:53:48.280 Five zero.

01:53:48.900 50 seconds.

01:53:50.740 Oh, oh, Ozempic could cause death.

01:53:54.600 Right.

01:53:54.940 I mean, that's really pretty much what it is.

01:53:56.960 Despite the fact that these studies, what they're talking about are incredibly rare side

01:54:01.760 effects that affect almost no one who actually takes the medication, but they still have

01:54:05.380 to jam it into every commercial they do for the product.

01:54:07.780 Correct.

01:54:08.620 Because.

01:54:09.900 Because the federal government requires it.

01:54:12.960 This one doesn't even need a study.

01:54:14.880 They don't.

01:54:15.120 Yeah.

01:54:15.340 We're like, we're fine.

01:54:16.760 You're going to be fine.

01:54:17.660 Shut up. 0.95

01:54:18.360 Stop your belly aching or I'll give you something to belly ache about. 1.00

01:54:21.700 That's what the government has become.

01:54:23.300 It's such a weird, like, it doesn't make any sense.

01:54:26.600 It doesn't make any sense.

01:54:27.960 And, you know, you want to like, luckily, I think we're in a at a place at this point

01:54:32.780 where we can do with the government's advice what we do with all of their other advice when

01:54:37.980 it comes to what we put in our body.

01:54:39.500 Ignore it completely.

01:54:41.040 Like, when's the last time you looked at the food pyramid?

01:54:43.660 I think they even changed it a few years ago under Obama, didn't they?

01:54:46.340 There's something else.

01:54:47.120 I don't know.

01:54:47.520 I don't care.

01:54:47.920 They can recommend whatever they want.

01:54:50.520 That is not, you know, at least it's not them saying they're going to mandate it or

01:54:55.140 anything like that.

01:54:55.800 But even the recommendation is sort of silly at this point.

01:54:58.840 Like, I don't know if you happen to be in a certain circumstance and you're like, you're

01:55:03.320 like, you know what?

01:55:03.800 This seems like it's the right thing for me.

01:55:05.240 Then you do it.

01:55:06.020 You do it.

01:55:07.000 Joe doesn't do it for you.

01:55:08.560 Yeah.

01:55:09.680 Cut down on the prime of his life.

01:55:12.900 Bob Barker.

01:55:13.880 We lost him from The Price is Right.

01:55:15.680 You could have broken that to us a little bit easier.

01:55:17.380 Hey, Bob Barker's up on the roof.

01:55:20.420 What?

01:55:21.060 I don't know.

01:55:21.480 Why is he on a roof?

01:55:22.840 Why would he be?

01:55:24.720 Why?

01:55:25.280 Why are we?

01:55:26.020 You don't know that joke.

01:55:27.760 Bob Barker passed away.

01:55:29.720 99 years old.

01:55:30.960 Yes.

01:55:31.480 Complete shock.

01:55:33.520 So sometime, you know, shortly after he heard, Bob Barker, come on down.

01:55:41.660 What is happening?

01:55:44.000 Did we just insert a segment from a different show?

01:55:46.520 Joe, what is going on?

01:55:50.780 Also, also, we lost Joe the plumber this weekend.

01:55:57.760 That was really sad.

01:55:58.920 Really sad.

01:55:59.420 Now, Bob lived a very full life.

01:56:00.920 Sure did.

01:56:01.420 He was 99 years old.

01:56:02.440 Yeah.

01:56:02.560 So, but Joe, I mean, what a terrible thing.

01:56:06.280 I mean, he was what?

01:56:06.740 Only 49 years old.

01:56:08.000 Yeah, 49.

01:56:08.920 This audience, by the way, made a huge difference in the last days of his life.

01:56:12.360 I got, in fact, do I have that email?

01:56:14.960 I got a couple of emails after it happened, and they wanted me to honor you and tell you,

01:56:26.940 I don't have it, but tell you that when he was on the show a month ago?

01:56:33.660 Well, it wasn't that long ago.

01:56:35.460 Yeah.

01:56:36.280 He was on the program.

01:56:37.720 We talked to him, and, you know, he said he was worried about his family stability, and,

01:56:44.060 you know, he's 49 years old.

01:56:45.420 And so we asked you to give, and you gave a lot, and his family reached out and wanted

01:56:55.300 you to know how much of a difference that you made in his last few weeks of life.

01:57:02.280 Man, am I understanding what he was able to move back closer to his extended family with?

01:57:07.660 Yeah, and it just, he had a good few weeks.

01:57:14.340 Man, geez.

01:57:15.480 I mean, you know, his story is such an American story, right?

01:57:19.040 Like, you think about other countries with kings and queens.

01:57:22.960 There's not, like, a story where one guy has a conversation with the king as they're walking

01:57:29.400 down the street and changes the dynamic, you know, and changes the conversation in the entire

01:57:34.680 country.

01:57:35.020 He was able to do that.

01:57:36.720 And then, once again, at the end of his life, like, there's very few countries where I think

01:57:41.840 that would happen, where a person who's very sick, you know, has so many people who don't

01:57:46.780 know him reach out and change the last few days of his life.

01:57:49.960 I mean, you know, it's this really sad story, but has a lot of, there's something to take

01:57:55.240 from it as well.

01:57:57.280 By the way, those stories do happen in other countries.

01:58:01.540 They usually end in beheadings.

01:58:03.240 Okay.

01:58:03.620 I mean, a lot of people that they don't know reach out and behead them.

01:58:08.680 Okay.

01:58:09.180 And it usually comes after walking down the street with the king saying, you know what?

01:58:13.580 Hey, you know what?

01:58:14.440 Your problem is.

01:58:16.560 Janet wrote in about her dog's experience with rough green.

01:58:19.440 She says, our little rescue girl loves rough greens.

01:58:23.400 I fill her kibble bowl.

01:58:25.040 If there's no rough greens in it, she sniffs and goes to the cupboard and waits until I

01:58:28.980 add it.

01:58:30.300 Only then will she eat.

01:58:32.140 She's a really smart girl.

01:58:33.640 She is a lot more energetic, more curious now, much more playful.

01:58:38.360 Her allergies have also subsided a lot.

01:58:41.760 Thank you so much for rough greens.

01:58:44.220 Janet, you're welcome.

01:58:45.080 Thanks for trying it.

01:58:46.360 All you have to do is just call for a free trial bag.

01:59:26.000 The Glenn back program.

01:59:29.880 So there's a, a, a new trial date, uh, for Donald Trump.

01:59:51.360 And, uh, it's, what is it federal, uh, January six charges that election interference.

01:59:57.520 Okay.

01:59:58.080 All right.

01:59:58.380 Federal and not the Georgia one.

01:59:59.620 Okay.

01:59:59.920 So this is a federal, because the Georgia one is coming. 0.88

02:00:02.340 I think when the RNC is actually having the convention.

02:00:05.580 Yeah.

02:00:06.140 Um, but this one for January six happens.

02:00:09.100 No big deal.

02:00:09.540 It's, it's the day now it is a, a very tightly contested primary, actually caucus in North

02:00:14.720 Dakota against Doug Burgum.

02:00:16.560 I mean, so who knows what's going to happen there.

02:00:18.540 Right.

02:00:19.160 Also, it's the day before super Tuesday.

02:00:22.500 I mean, how transparent can they be on this?

02:00:25.060 It is the day before you want to talk about with a straight face.

02:00:30.520 We don't want to do anything that could influence an election the day before.

02:00:37.060 Okay.

02:00:37.800 This is a crime.

02:00:38.780 I mean, it's so bad.

02:00:42.280 Unbelievable.

02:00:42.940 So yeah.

02:00:43.280 I mean, so super Tuesday, you have Alabama, Alaska, American Samoa, Arkansas, California,

02:00:48.460 Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas,

02:00:54.720 Utah, Vermont, Virginia, all on the same day.

02:00:57.460 And they put, they're putting him to trial the day before.

02:01:01.020 Also the day that North Dakota's caucus.

02:01:02.840 I mean, I have to tell you, I, I, I mean, it was honestly, Stu, honestly, honestly, it's,

02:01:09.360 they act as if they just know they could beat him.

02:01:15.240 I don't know if we could beat anybody else, but we could certainly beat him.

02:01:18.800 Right.

02:01:19.080 And they want him because you're going to vote the very next day.

02:01:23.720 What's going to be on your mind?

02:01:25.540 This government is out of control.

02:01:28.000 Every Republican primary voter is going to be thinking that way.

02:01:31.020 I think so.

02:01:32.120 And then they want to put him in jail.

02:01:34.360 You and I talked about it last week.

02:01:35.620 There's no, there's no way, there's no way they're going to let up on this guy.

02:01:40.340 No way.

02:01:40.960 It certainly doesn't seem like it.

02:01:42.160 No.

02:01:42.620 You know?

02:01:43.020 And so what, how do they fail here?

02:01:44.540 Do they go over 91?

02:01:46.600 I don't know.

02:01:48.060 Every time they say, well, this is going to be the one that gets him.

02:01:50.740 Uh, you know, and so far, uh, no, it's not the one they're just digging a hole deeper and deeper for themselves.

02:01:58.680 I think, but I don't, I don't know.

02:02:01.340 And by the way, where the hell are the Republicans?

02:02:04.300 I keep hearing that, you know, we're going to look into, you're going to look at what's happening.

02:02:12.420 Look at what's happening.

02:02:14.100 You're telling me there's nothing you can do.

02:02:16.940 You don't hold any purse strings.

02:02:20.740 This is out of control.

02:02:23.580 It is out of control.

02:02:25.140 And I don't know what, like, you don't, it's difficult to figure out what goes on here because if we, if what we believe, what we say, we believe you've done a million shows on the deep state and how serious they do these things.

02:02:35.780 And they'll go to any lengths to, to trample, uh, this entire process.

02:02:41.120 If you really do believe that, how do you believe that they go over 91 and this guy's walking around doing debates, you know, against Joe Biden?

02:02:49.820 And how does that happen?

02:02:51.460 They're, they're going to put him in prison.

02:02:53.220 If, if they are who we've said they are, this is what's going to occur at the end of this.

02:02:58.000 And then what do you want him to be the candidate and then put him in jail?

02:03:03.600 Hmm.

02:03:04.460 I'm convinced of it.

02:03:05.540 And then what?

02:03:06.480 Right.

02:03:06.740 Do the Republic, do the Republicans, honestly, would the Republicans try to figure out a way out of it and say, well, you know what?

02:03:13.320 He's in prison.

02:03:13.860 We had, we can run and run somebody else.

02:03:15.480 I wouldn't be surprised at that outcome.

02:03:17.240 I wouldn't either.

02:03:17.840 I wouldn't be, that would be a horrible outcome.

02:03:19.620 Oh, I don't see any good outcomes coming out of this.

02:03:23.320 Right.

02:03:23.640 I don't know what, what the outcome could be that would be positive for this system.

02:03:28.780 You know, this is a, we've had Jesse Kelly on the program before.

02:03:31.880 Let me give you this tweet from him.

02:03:32.900 Tell me if you agree with it.

02:03:33.880 He says, they're never going to let him be president again.

02:03:36.180 I'm sorry.

02:03:36.900 It's wrong.

02:03:37.720 It's awful.

02:03:38.500 It's unjust, but it's true. 0.98

02:03:40.420 If you don't see that, you don't understand what you're dealing with.

02:03:44.060 I mean, I don't.

02:03:45.040 He's right.

02:03:45.720 I think he might be right.

02:03:47.720 And then, then what, what does that mean?

02:03:50.320 Well, we have Donald Trump on with us tomorrow.

02:03:53.660 Don't miss tomorrow's episode of the Glenn Beck program.

02:03:56.720 The one, the only Donald J. Trump.
