Transcript

00:00:00.000 I want to talk to you about Jace Medical.
00:00:02.260 Jace Medical is this company started by a bunch of doctors that realized, hey, we really, we are not prepared.
00:00:09.920 And they really were proven right when it came to the COVID pandemic.
00:00:17.460 We had a shortage of drugs.
00:00:19.640 We don't make our own medicines here.
00:00:22.700 If there is any kind of supply chain breakdown or anything else, there's already a worldwide shortage of amoxicillin.
00:00:30.000 That's a pretty well-known, you know, ever used a lot of stuff.
00:00:35.160 That's like in that first line of defense kind of stuff.
00:00:38.780 So they started making the Jace case, which is a medical case filled with, I can't remember, I think five different courses of antibiotics that you can use for UTIs, respiratory infections, sinusitis, skin infections.
00:00:53.140 You can use it on vacation.
00:00:54.500 You can use it when you're, you know, when you're out, when it's inconvenient to maybe get to the doctor.
00:01:00.120 And then when you see the doctor, you know, he can verify everything.
00:01:04.640 It's all overseen by a doctor, but it is a way for you to have basic medications in your home.
00:01:10.940 JaceMedical.com.
00:01:12.140 That's J-A-S-E Medical.com.
00:01:15.360 Use the promo code BECK10 and get a Jace case now.
00:01:19.520 Jace Bowl.
00:01:40.940 Got no room to compromise.
00:01:43.480 We gotta stand together, it's the chorus of night
00:01:49.400 Stand up straight and hold the line
00:01:54.960 It's a new day of time to rise
00:02:00.900 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:09.060 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:13.480 Hello America, welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:17.460 Lisa Marie Presley has passed on at 54.
00:02:22.500 The first thing that I heard from everybody was, was she vaccinated?
00:02:27.320 This, I can understand why you might think that.
00:02:29.680 And yep, that might be the case, might not be the case.
00:02:32.980 I don't know.
00:02:33.840 However, this is a measurement, if you will, of how bad the credibility is of our doctors, medicine, media, and our administration.
00:02:48.740 It was destroyed over COVID, and it has to be fixed.
00:02:53.660 But are we going that way?
00:02:55.080 Biden's records, now a third pile of documents that are top secret.
00:03:01.480 Press is not really going after this.
00:03:03.960 The only way you get arrested on anything top secret is if you're like a submariner,
00:03:08.020 and you've took a picture of the sub for your kid, then it's guaranteed jail time.
00:03:13.480 That leads to the Bubba effect.
00:03:16.600 When, I'm sorry, but you guys have caused so many problems.
00:03:21.120 We're not listening to you.
00:03:23.440 And it must change.
00:03:25.680 I want to talk to you about being, our society, being beaten on the rocks in 60 seconds.
00:03:33.260 Imagine getting the best set of sheets you can get and not pay a lot of money for them.
00:03:41.260 I am, this is not hyperbole.
00:03:43.240 I really, I love the Giza Dream Sheets, and I'm a sheet snob.
00:03:47.140 I mean, when I go and have to stay in a Best Western, well, it's not even a Best Western.
00:03:55.700 It's like an okay Western.
00:03:58.480 As you drive across the country, I wish I would bring my own sheets.
00:04:02.700 I am really addicted to soft cotton, and that used to be a lot of money.
00:04:09.700 I don't know what the thread count thing is, but, you know, going in and buying sheets, you're like, what?
00:04:15.220 But, Giza Dream Sheets, you can get them now at like $29.98.
00:04:20.640 I sleep on them every night.
00:04:22.400 They are so great.
00:04:24.520 So soft, breathable, durable.
00:04:27.420 They come from MyPillow, and right now they have this special where you can get them as low as $29.98.
00:04:33.360 I'm telling you, there's no other, I just don't think there's a better sheet than this.

00:04:55.160 Limited time now.
00:04:56.380 MyPillow.com, promo code BECK.
00:04:58.640 So I'm going to talk to you here philosophically, and then we're going to get into all of the news of the day.
00:05:06.140 And it all kind of ties into this, and that is the collapse of trust.
00:05:11.820 I used to call it the implosion of trust.
00:05:14.140 I said it was the last thing before the world had to be reset.
00:05:18.160 And that is, people in every institution have discredited themselves and the institution so much that no one knows who to believe or how to get the truth anymore.
00:05:31.420 And that's where we are.
00:05:33.420 And a society doesn't last long when there is no truth.
00:05:38.220 That's why they're confusing our children with sexuality and everything else.
00:05:42.100 There is no male or female.
00:05:43.900 You might be a furry deer.
00:05:46.440 That's a lie.
00:05:47.380 And we must not allow lies into our life because our children won't have anything to trust because we don't have anything to trust.
00:05:57.260 And if we follow down the road of society, our children won't be even able to trust us.
00:06:04.860 Now, our society, if I, well, I did.
00:06:07.980 When I told you that everything that you thought was solid would be liquid and the world would be turned inside out,
00:06:15.620 and you wouldn't know what was up or down anymore, most people didn't believe me.
00:06:22.260 They thought that was hyperbole.
00:06:23.700 But I said that for 15 years that that time was coming.
00:06:26.960 I think we can all agree that time is here and has been here for a while.
00:06:33.180 Now, we cannot be people that are looking to go back because what are you going back to?
00:06:41.540 The 1990s, the 1970s, 80s, 1950s?
00:06:47.060 Those were all not utopian times.
00:06:50.640 Those are things that we should not go back to in whole.
00:06:54.880 There are some things from our past, and this is what a conservative does.
00:07:00.900 They look at all of the things and say, what works and what didn't work?
00:07:05.920 What's good that we should conserve and save?
00:07:10.040 And what can we throw out?
00:07:12.520 And we need to have a vision of the future.
00:07:16.080 I want to boil this down to you and me.
00:07:20.700 This is really kind of my philosophy in my life right now.
00:07:25.540 We don't want to go back to the way things were, and we can't go back to the way things were.
00:07:31.060 There's something better on the horizon.
00:07:33.940 Right now, our entire Western society, and I think us as people, are just being beaten on the rocks.
00:07:41.580 You feel like that?
00:07:42.660 You feel like maybe you're in, like, God's wash tub, and he's just taking you on the washboard,
00:07:47.800 and you're like, that's the way it feels, right?
00:07:55.300 Mountain spring water is so pure and fresh, and it's beaten on the rocks.
00:08:02.580 I don't know how that works in Fiji.
00:08:05.160 I think that's just seawater with dolphin pee in it, but everybody thinks it's great.
00:08:09.140 But the mountain fresh water is purified, and it is beaten on the rocks all the way down.
00:08:17.800 So let's look at the good news on this.
00:08:21.420 The faster we get it, the closer we will come to the still waters.
00:08:27.940 And in this analogy, I guess when we get there, then we're just sucked up, bottled,
00:08:33.120 and shipped to some distant place where we're all consumed.
00:08:35.580 But let's let the analogy stop there before we get to the pool.
00:08:41.600 What I'm trying to say to you is we are being prepared for something, and we have a choice.
00:08:47.560 We can either hang on to the things that were of the past, all of it,
00:08:52.260 or we can look for those things that we must have in the future, i.e. the truth,
00:08:59.940 and be excited about the next chapter that we're in.
00:09:05.340 It's really frightening, totally frightening, and to be beaten across the rocks.
00:09:15.220 I want to, I have alluded to some of these things in the past, in the past year.
00:09:22.960 This has been a very difficult year for my family, my immediate family.
00:09:26.700 We've had a suicide attempt.
00:09:31.900 We've had three of my children I have taken to the hospital for depression.
00:09:41.340 One of my children going through life-changing strife right now that is the roughest road I think anybody can walk.
00:09:48.680 And it just, the family is on fire.
00:09:58.720 But I know they're going to make it.
00:10:04.260 Earlier this year, I was really beating myself up because I'm like, what have I missed?
00:10:08.280 How did I miss this stuff?
00:10:09.620 Do you remember those days, Stu, when I was like, I'm just the worst.
00:10:13.100 How, how, what?
00:10:14.900 And I came to a place to where I realized, you know, I can only do what I can do.
00:10:23.580 These are his kids, too.
00:10:25.140 They were his kids before they were mine.
00:10:27.300 He loaned them to me so I could raise them to the best of the ability.
00:10:32.340 At some point when you get there, you just have to say, hey, these are your kids, man.
00:10:36.820 I know you care about them just as much as I do.
00:10:40.680 If I can understand your kind of love, it's probably a lot bigger than mine.
00:10:46.540 So these are your kids and I can't do it.
00:10:51.200 And then you just have to trust.
00:10:54.120 Because there is.
00:10:56.980 And I have felt guilty.
00:11:00.140 I have felt worthless this year.
00:11:02.460 I have felt completely out of control, just despair a lot of the times.
00:11:10.960 My wife just, my wife and I just hanging on to each other.
00:11:16.060 My older kids have told me for years, well, you know, dad, when we were growing up, you weren't around.
00:11:20.620 And that's true.
00:11:21.480 I wasn't around and left a mark.
00:11:23.180 And then my younger kids, now as we're, you know, having family therapy and everything else, which, by the way, we're the best family ever.
00:11:35.760 Anyway, you know, my younger kids have said to me recently, you know, dad, you weren't always there.
00:11:42.040 And I'm like, are you kidding me?
00:11:43.400 I have.
00:11:44.060 I have been like I have tried to be super dad.
00:11:47.760 My kids were homeschooled in the office next to the studio of mine for a while.
00:11:53.360 I mean, I am there for him as much as I can.
00:11:56.720 And then that that's what teenagers will say.
00:11:59.600 That's what teenagers will do.
00:12:01.560 And let me just tell you, there is no such thing as balance in life.
00:12:05.480 There is no such thing as enough time for your children.
00:12:09.500 There is no such thing, children, as a perfect childhood.
00:12:13.540 All of it leaves marks.
00:12:15.380 All of it leaves marks.
00:12:16.880 Life is imperfect.
00:12:18.680 Life is hard.
00:12:20.000 Then you die.
00:12:21.680 But it's worth the journey.
00:12:24.380 It's in the journey.
00:12:25.960 It's in between the hard part.
00:12:27.440 You know, we had a chair in my house and my my second eldest hated it because we had chairs around our kitchen table that had a virtue on the back of every chair.
00:12:40.160 One of them was forgiveness.
00:12:41.300 And if somebody was holding a grudge about somebody, I would say, you need to sit in the forgiveness chair and eat dinner.
00:12:46.960 Remember that virtue.
00:12:48.520 Well, the one that I would assign from time to time was endurance.
00:12:52.840 You need to sit in the endurance chair.
00:12:54.520 Hey, you just got to get through this.
00:12:57.400 Oh, my kids hated it, hated it.
00:13:01.580 They have all come back and said, sorry, Dad.
00:13:04.900 You're right.
00:13:05.560 Endurance.
00:13:06.060 They thought life.
00:13:07.480 You just make life sound so tough.
00:13:09.700 And I'm like, it is a lot of it.
00:13:11.460 You just have to get through.
00:13:14.020 And and now they now they get it.
00:13:17.080 Now they get it.
00:13:18.600 But do we remember that?
00:13:21.340 Because sometimes things get so dark for us.
00:13:23.840 We're like, I can't.
00:13:24.880 I don't.
00:13:26.100 I don't know what to do.
00:13:27.760 I'm completely at a loss.
00:13:30.640 First of all, if you don't have faith, you need to find faith.
00:13:35.760 You need to find faith in bigger something bigger than people and certainly not the collective.
00:13:41.700 You need to find faith.
00:13:43.500 I don't care if it's the universe.
00:13:46.840 I don't care what it is.
00:13:48.680 But you must have faith.
00:13:53.020 In something that is good.
00:13:55.580 Humanity has made it through everything, not the dinosaurs.
00:13:58.960 I will remind you.
00:14:00.840 But we went through absolutely everything.
00:14:04.980 And it does get better.
00:14:09.900 One of my children's doctors called me and said, I can't say anything.
00:14:15.620 You know, I can't talk about the things that are private.
00:14:17.600 I don't want to, you know.
00:14:19.700 And.
00:14:21.620 He said, but I had to call you, he said, because very rarely have I sat in a room with a child
00:14:29.240 that admires their father as much as your child does.
00:14:35.660 And he said, you have done something right.
00:14:39.220 And I was like, and it was my day yesterday was my day.
00:14:43.520 I got that phone call and I'm like, oh, my gosh.
00:14:46.720 Oh, and the sun, you know, sun's beaming down just on me was the clouds start to part.
00:14:53.440 And I'm like, it's over.
00:14:55.280 No, it's not.
00:14:56.300 No, it's not.
00:14:57.460 But I had a great day yesterday.
00:15:00.280 My daughter is in the musical Freaky Friday and I've been trying to teach her something
00:15:04.640 of about acting and it's hard.
00:15:06.660 And she's like, I don't want to do all that.
00:15:09.140 That's not going to make a difference.
00:15:10.520 And then because she's now the lead role in this musical and it is really difficult.
00:15:16.020 The director was coming to her.
00:15:17.500 Go, what do you do?
00:15:18.200 What is that?
00:15:19.060 Why?
00:15:19.500 Where?
00:15:19.720 How did you make that choice?
00:15:20.800 And she's like, I don't know.
00:15:22.280 And I said, well, you know, she would have done that hard work.
00:15:24.620 And I've been talking to her for about four years on this.
00:15:27.700 So she finally did it because she was broken.
00:15:33.040 She had been beaten on the rocks.
00:15:35.320 And so she was like, OK, maybe I should do this hard stuff.
00:15:38.820 She did.
00:15:39.760 She comes back home.
00:15:41.500 The director pointed her out to everybody and said, you know what she's doing?
00:15:46.620 She's doing this acting technique and you guys should look into it because he looked
00:15:52.960 at her and said, you're doing what?
00:15:55.120 How do you even know that?
00:15:57.480 So dad gets credit all of a sudden.
00:16:00.720 Ah, the clouds will roll in and it'll be a dark, dark tornado, hurricane kind of raining
00:16:09.960 fire.
00:16:10.900 What do they call that thing over California?
00:16:13.220 The river in the sky or whatever.
00:16:15.260 It's going to come again.
00:16:17.320 It might be today.
00:16:18.960 But last night, yesterday was glorious.
00:16:24.060 Glorious.
00:16:24.620 Make a note of that so I can go back and look at it and go, oh, remember that good day?
00:16:36.720 That'll come again.
00:16:39.420 Because it's going to feel again like you're not going to get past the dark spot, but you
00:16:43.700 will.
00:16:45.300 The good times will pass.
00:16:48.760 Bad times will come.
00:16:50.540 Savor them.
00:16:51.660 Write them down.
00:16:52.560 Know that today, in one of the darkest periods of my life, I'm really full of joy.
00:17:05.540 And for good reason.
00:17:07.280 It's not like I'm manic.
00:17:08.900 It's not like, hey, I think I'm going to win.
00:17:11.820 Let's go to Vegas today.
00:17:13.840 No, no, no.
00:17:14.820 We're still struggling.
00:17:16.900 But today is a good day and I'm full of joy.
00:17:19.420 And part of the reason, the biggest part of the reason is because I have faith.
00:17:27.060 I know who God is and I know who I am to him and who you are to him.
00:17:32.140 If you don't, you need to find that.
00:17:34.560 But the other reason is I married for all of the right reasons.
00:17:39.400 I mean, first, smoking hot.
00:17:43.400 So we were polar opposites there.
00:17:46.380 You know what I mean?
00:17:47.440 Opposites attract.
00:17:48.400 She was smoking hot.
00:17:49.760 I was me.
00:17:51.480 No.
00:17:53.420 I married her.
00:17:54.560 Yes, she was smoking hot.
00:17:55.520 But I married her.
00:17:58.240 Because we both knew who we wanted to be.
00:18:01.980 And that's what got us through everything.
00:18:04.220 She was kind, loving, centered, balanced.
00:18:10.960 Nothing earthly really matters.
00:18:13.740 She is so.
00:18:14.500 I was going to the governor's swearing in, Ron DeSantis, sat at his table.
00:18:21.620 Didn't know that at the time.
00:18:22.580 But sat at his table.
00:18:23.620 I took my son because Tanya was just not impressed.
00:18:26.400 She's like, oh, so I can fly across the country, sit down at a table of a bunch of people who don't know me, really don't care about me, and I'm not going to really care about a lot of the political stuff.
00:18:41.480 Gee, that sounds like fun.
00:18:43.780 I've got laundry to do.
00:18:45.940 I love that.
00:18:46.840 She knows who she is.
00:18:48.140 I love that.
00:18:51.560 Know who God is.
00:18:53.520 Mary Wright.
00:18:54.240 And remember, the storm will pass.
00:19:00.140 Let me tell you about pre-born.
00:19:02.400 Last year, you participated in a miracle.
00:19:05.820 Tens of thousands of babies who otherwise would have not seen the light of day have begun or are just beginning to draw their breath because you donated to pre-born.
00:19:17.900 There was about 52, I can't remember, 52,000 babies that were saved because of this audience, because of the donations.
00:19:26.660 And we can count them because we know how many kids or how many women are coming into a pregnancy center and saying, I'm thinking about an abortion.
00:19:34.500 They get the ultrasound and it changes their mind.
00:19:38.700 That's what you donated to, ultrasounds.
00:19:41.980 And this pays for the doctor's visit, pays for the ultrasound.
00:19:46.400 It's like $28.
00:19:47.300 And it's 80% chance that once they see the baby, they say, I want the baby.
00:19:55.580 $28.
00:19:56.700 That's less than most dinners.
00:19:58.880 There's nothing you can do to bring more blessings on your life than saving children.
00:20:03.460 Pound 250, baby.
00:20:05.340 Or you can donate securely at preborn.com slash beck.
00:20:08.880 Just hit pound 250, say the keyword baby, or go to preborn.com slash beck.

00:20:18.480 10 seconds, station ID.
00:20:31.540 You know, just one more thing on this, I'm going to move on.
00:20:34.300 So, you know, if you're not a long-time listener, if you know, if you're a long-time listener, you know I am screwed up every way to Sunday.
00:20:44.400 I've been suicidal in my 30s, broke, divorced, friendless, alcoholic, absolutely hopeless, really not a good guy.
00:20:55.500 But I used those times that were dark to reach deep and really learn.
00:21:03.080 What is God trying to teach me here?
00:21:05.920 Because nothing that I believe in and nothing that I'm doing is working my way.
00:21:10.800 So, I surrender.
00:21:13.100 What am I to learn?
00:21:14.420 If we all dig deep now, we will start seeing the things that are important.
00:21:19.600 If you're a conservative, what are you conserving?
00:21:23.380 Are you conserving your job?
00:21:27.220 Because that's not worth dying for.
00:21:30.500 Are you conserving your car, your way of life, meaning, you know, I get up in the morning, I go to work, I come home, I put my feet up and watch the TV.
00:21:43.000 Is that what you're conserving?
00:21:44.140 What is it you're conserving?
00:21:45.800 This is why we have to boil everything down now to the very essence.
00:21:53.340 What is worth living for, fighting for, standing up for, never lying, because you know that will lose everything.
00:22:05.820 And lying, you know now what happens when people lie.
00:22:11.620 And you have to be on guard as much as the next person.
00:22:16.100 Because it's going to get easier and easier to cut corners and lie and harder and harder to stand up for the truth and be fearless.
00:22:25.200 But if you do, and you boil down, what is it?
00:22:32.300 For me, it's the Bill of Rights.
00:22:34.760 That's it.
00:22:35.500 And being able to follow my conscience as I understand God.
00:22:39.080 That's it.
00:22:39.940 That's worth conserving.
00:22:41.920 What is it for you?
00:22:44.000 And that is what we should be expressing to our neighbors.
00:22:48.160 Not all this bull crap of, I think it should be this guy or that guy.
00:22:52.100 Hey, what's worth conserving?

00:24:07.900 All right.
00:24:08.280 Let me tell you a little bit about Blaze TV.
00:24:10.000 We got all the usual stuff that you need and a few surprises.
00:24:12.860 It's like, I just found out, Stu Does America is still on the air.
00:24:18.740 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:24:28.820 We're glad you're here.
00:24:29.880 A couple of stories to note.
00:24:32.200 Let's start with the president and his documents.
00:24:36.320 Now, there is a third place that he stores top secret documents.
00:24:42.860 You remember when Trump did this and they were in a room and the FBI had told him, you know, it had to be locked.
00:24:49.360 And so he put the special lock on.
00:24:51.040 But that wasn't good enough.
00:24:52.520 And they were all speculating that he may have the designs of the stealth bomber.
00:25:00.700 And he was going to sell him to Russia.
00:25:02.920 Yeah.
00:25:03.300 Selling him to Russia.
00:25:04.360 Remember all of that speculation?
00:25:06.040 I mean, this is this could be nuclear secrets.
00:25:09.520 And none of that was true.
00:25:10.980 Now, Joe Biden, three different locations.
00:25:15.680 And I love the response when it was found in his garage.
00:25:20.720 But I put it in.
00:25:22.140 It's in my garage with my Corvette.
00:25:25.240 I lock the door.
00:25:27.800 Oh, I know those garage door openers that you cannot penetrate those places.
00:25:32.920 It's like Fort Knox.
00:25:33.920 Oh, it is.
00:25:34.800 And you know what?
00:25:35.820 There are two people in that garage at all time.
00:25:38.640 And they both have keys to the Corvette and guns.
00:25:42.180 And you can't start that Corvette.
00:25:44.200 You'll look and say, sir, turn your key.
00:25:48.420 And they're in there all the time.
00:25:50.300 So that's good stuff.
00:25:52.560 Yeah.
00:25:52.880 Yeah.
00:25:53.140 It's an impenetrable.
00:25:53.720 Like you said, it's impenetrable.
00:25:55.640 And the third location is where?
00:25:57.260 Do we know yet?
00:25:58.060 I think his other vacation home.
00:26:00.300 Because he's got them at both his homes.
00:26:04.060 I think one of the one of the office at University of Pennsylvania.
00:26:07.780 But but other than that, just the other places he has them.
00:26:10.960 But yeah, I think one of them only there was only one document there.
00:26:14.380 They don't.
00:26:14.900 OK, just the one.
00:26:15.480 Just one.
00:26:16.240 And so.
00:26:16.960 Right.
00:26:17.440 Again, what I find to be fascinating about this is how they the most transparent administration
00:26:24.740 that focuses so much on transparency.
00:26:27.000 That's all they care about.
00:26:28.600 Somehow they found out about this before the election and didn't tell anybody.
00:26:31.860 And then when the press found out about this, they were already at a point in the timeline
00:26:36.740 where they knew about these additional fines on the documents.
00:26:40.340 And when the press came to them and said, hey, we heard about these documents that were
00:26:43.340 found, they said, well, yeah, sure.
00:26:45.440 And didn't say anything about the additional documents they already knew about.
00:26:49.300 They lied and lied and lied and hoped and prayed that no one would say anything.
00:26:53.500 So now eventually we finally know.
00:26:55.440 But they're hiding something.
00:26:57.400 Right.
00:26:58.340 The implosion of trust.
00:26:59.800 This is why.
00:27:00.500 Look, when you have the implosion of trust, I told you that is the last step before usually
00:27:06.780 a world war and a total reset.
00:27:09.920 And I said before we understood the great reset.
00:27:12.520 So I kind of regret those words.
00:27:13.980 It wasn't me.
00:27:15.540 I didn't call it on anyway.
00:27:16.960 The implosion of trust.
00:27:19.100 That is the reset comes whether you like it or not.
00:27:24.880 The reset comes either with fire, terror and blood because a fascistic kind of authoritarian
00:27:35.320 leader has to come up because you don't believe the doctors.
00:27:39.120 You don't believe the banks.
00:27:40.680 You won't do what they say to do.
00:27:43.720 The Bubba effect.
00:27:45.100 You think if a submariner takes a picture of a submarine in port for his daughter to see.
00:27:52.020 Remember this?
00:27:53.060 That guy went to prison for it.
00:27:55.940 You think that the community on anything like that, not top secret, just that you think
00:28:03.800 the community is going to go, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:28:07.420 He took a picture of the sub for his daughter and he's going to prison.
00:28:11.480 But all of these people with the top secret stuff, that's fine.
00:28:16.260 The Bubba effect.
00:28:17.340 So you don't do what you have to do as a society to stay together.
00:28:24.360 You're not all on the same page.
00:28:27.000 So an authoritarian has to step up or there needs to be, and I hate to use this word because
00:28:34.140 I don't mean it the way I don't mean it the way that communists mean it, a purge.
00:28:38.280 You have to have somebody go in, do investigations.
00:28:43.260 Let me just say this is what the Freedom Caucus was talking about.
00:28:46.340 Do investigations, do them properly, and let the real rule of law work and restore the
00:28:56.640 trust.
00:28:57.380 But you think there's another pandemic coming?
00:28:59.740 Do you think anybody is going to stand in line for that vax?
00:29:03.040 Look at Lisa Marie Presley.
00:29:04.800 She dies.
00:29:05.740 First thing a lot of people thought was, I wonder if she had the vaccine.
00:29:10.680 Yeah.
00:29:10.820 And with good reason, people wonder that because we've seen many, many stories about
00:29:15.880 young people who are otherwise healthy, who have just dropped dead.
00:29:18.880 But you know what?
00:29:19.500 She's not an example of young people.
00:29:21.000 Well, she's only 54.
00:29:22.240 That's not very old.
00:29:23.360 But she had a long-term opioid addiction.
00:29:26.340 She's been a mess.
00:29:28.120 Are you saying heroin addicts are unhealthy?
00:29:31.840 How dare you?
00:29:33.140 And Lizzo is the picture of health.
00:29:35.220 Right.
00:29:35.500 You've seen her in the bikini?
00:29:36.880 Oh, yeah.
00:29:38.520 There are certainly, I think, better examples of why you would worry on this.
00:29:43.280 But I think it's, your point, Glenn, I think is really on the mark here, which is nobody
00:29:48.040 trusts anything anymore.
00:29:49.560 No.
00:29:49.860 Like you just immediately jump to the worst case scenario because so often the worst case
00:29:54.540 scenario is the thing that's actually true.
00:29:56.760 You know, it seems like over and over again where whatever we thought the worst case scenario
00:29:59.860 could be winds up being true.
00:30:02.480 And so you're going to be, that's going to be one of the first things you go to is like
00:30:07.280 whatever they're telling me, I don't trust.
00:30:08.880 And the whole concept of a civilization is based on trust.
00:30:13.940 Trust.
00:30:14.660 It really is.
00:30:15.720 And all I would want, speaking for myself, all I would want is for them to look into
00:30:20.880 this.
00:30:21.240 Oh, yeah, of course.
00:30:21.620 That's all I want.
00:30:22.020 Just look into it and see if it has anything at all to do with the vaccine.
00:30:26.080 But do you trust?
00:30:26.580 We just got a study from environmentalists and the government is taking it seriously about
00:30:33.340 gas stoves.
00:30:35.160 And they say, we're not doing anything.
00:30:37.100 The states are doing it.
00:30:38.720 Washington state has already made it.
00:30:40.920 New York.
00:30:41.280 Yeah.
00:30:41.820 So you cannot have build a new home with a gas stove in it.
00:30:46.800 Well, where?
00:30:48.580 Why?
00:30:49.200 Why?
00:30:49.660 Because they took that seriously.
00:30:51.860 See, the administration is doing all kinds of things and they're doing them based on
00:30:56.480 these studies.
00:30:57.080 So if you get a study that says, no, actually, the vaccine had nothing to do.
00:31:01.500 Nobody's going to believe it because no one has any credibility.
00:31:05.480 And it becomes very dangerous.
00:31:08.120 A good example of this is, you know, we had Paul Ehrlich spent in the 1970s telling us
00:31:13.880 we were all going to die.
00:31:15.180 Yeah.
00:31:15.300 That there was going to be no UK, you know, in the year 2000.
00:31:18.580 The West Side Freeway or highway in New York was going to be completely submerged by now.
00:31:23.420 Well, there'd be no food for the population.
00:31:26.040 Right.
00:31:26.260 By 1980.
00:31:27.320 People will be struggling to have a steak as, you know, only the richest people on earth
00:31:33.940 will be eating it.
00:31:34.920 We were told by 2020 there would be no snow caps in North America.
00:31:40.840 Have you noticed in the Sierra Nevadas the snow cap this year?
00:31:45.900 There's some snow.
00:31:46.520 So you go through all of this for 50 years, right?
00:31:50.980 I mean, Paul Ehrlich, using him as a specific example of some of these claims, has been
00:31:56.280 around for 50 years.
00:31:57.780 And this week he was on television with a new environmental scare story that they put
00:32:03.160 on network television.
00:32:03.920 And we're supposed to believe.
00:32:04.940 How the hell is this guy still on television making claims?
00:32:07.760 Because people don't know who he is.
00:32:09.400 These people are washed over and over again, usually in the university system.
00:32:13.620 And so that's the problem.
00:32:15.360 Look, here's where it gets dangerous.
00:32:17.280 It's already dangerous with doctors.
00:32:19.500 It's already dangerous because who do you trust?
00:32:23.040 Who do you trust when things are really coming down to it?
00:32:26.760 And the pharmaceutical company says, no, this is great.
00:32:29.640 Do you trust that, that that is what they say it is?
00:32:32.980 Well, no, because they've been hiding information.
00:32:34.520 We just found that out again.
00:32:35.640 Not only hiding information, they're in collusion with the government.
00:32:41.120 Yeah.
00:32:41.220 So what do you do?
00:32:42.520 So this week, the FAA grounded all flights.
00:32:46.640 Okay.
00:32:46.780 That hasn't happened since 9-11.
00:32:50.740 And that was the only other time it's ever happened.
00:32:52.880 Right.
00:32:53.320 So we grounded all flights.
00:32:57.580 Why?
00:32:58.400 Because there was a glitch in the computer system where they contact the planes and go,
00:33:03.780 hey, by the way, there's another plane coming your way.
00:33:06.380 So there was a glitch in the computer system.
00:33:09.980 Now, Pete Buttigieg finds out about it.
00:33:12.240 And Pete Buttigieg, you know, he gets on the case and immediately says, you know what?
00:33:16.840 It was no big deal.
00:33:18.100 This was not espionage.
00:33:20.200 This was not somebody trying to do this.
00:33:22.360 It was just a it was just an uncorrupted or I'm sorry.
00:33:26.060 It was just a corrupted file.
00:33:29.320 Well, wait.
00:33:31.380 Isn't that how espionage works?
00:33:34.720 I mean, it doesn't have to be espionage, but it's basically what they're saying is somebody downloaded,
00:33:41.760 you know, see Lizzo in a bikini and somebody opened it and it infected all of the entire server system.
00:33:51.960 OK, me personally, I think you'd be smarter if you said see Lizzo in a bikini and it didn't corrupt the files unless you push delete.
00:34:00.420 But anyway, so the the somebody went in and did something they weren't supposed to do and it corrupted a file and shut it all down.
00:34:13.980 Coincidentally, on the same day, at the same time, Canada had the same corrupted file.
00:34:22.260 Now, how did UK did as well?
00:34:24.500 How did that happen?
00:34:26.360 Yeah.
00:34:26.540 How did that happen?
00:34:27.780 And if you think that, you know, you don't need a spot.
00:34:30.940 Why use a spy with a thumb drive that has to go in, you know, cloak and dagger and like, OK, I'm at the main FAA Apple and I'm just going to put this thumb drive in it and I'm going to infect that machine.
00:34:44.240 Why do that when you can easily find out who works with the FAA and is on those computers all the time and target an email that they'll open up?
00:34:56.540 And then it's infected and it's over.
00:34:58.560 Well, these people are lying to you that we're there's no evidence.
00:35:05.060 Well, of course, there's no evidence yet.
00:35:07.320 But are you even looking into it?
00:35:10.340 You really expect us to believe that the first time we have grounded all of our airplanes since 9-11 and the second time in all of aviation history it's ever happened on the same day it happened in Canada.
00:35:26.560 And I'm just learning now from you guys, I guess, in Great Britain.
00:35:29.720 Come on.
00:35:31.020 Yeah.
00:35:31.480 Come on.
00:35:32.420 Both Canada and Great Britain said it was completely unrelated, though.
00:35:36.200 Huh.
00:35:37.000 It's weird.
00:35:37.760 It's not a coincidence.
00:35:39.440 What a weird.
00:35:40.400 What a weird coincidence.
00:35:41.420 What a weird.
00:35:42.200 They're still investigating the root cause of the failure.
00:35:45.560 Really?
00:35:45.920 Huh.
00:35:46.360 Huh.
00:35:47.180 Now, on the other side of our border, the FAA said, we're continuing a thorough review to determine the root cause.
00:35:54.940 Wait, Canada, we're still investing in the root cause of the failure.
00:35:58.000 America, we're continuing a thorough review to determine the root cause.
00:36:02.280 That's weird.
00:36:03.580 Another coincidence.
00:36:04.340 Another coincidence.
00:36:05.760 They're both doing the same thing.
00:36:06.620 Same thing.
00:36:07.160 And saying the exact same thing.
00:36:08.460 Our preliminary work has traced the outage to a damaged database file.
00:36:13.160 Wow.
00:36:14.000 A corrupted file.
00:36:16.000 How was it corrupted?
00:36:18.440 Well, there's no evidence of a cyber attack.
00:36:20.900 That wasn't the question.
00:36:22.640 The question was, how was it corrupted?
00:36:25.740 This is, this is embarrassing.
00:36:29.420 It's a mysterious coincidence.
00:36:31.180 And it's true.
00:36:31.740 Like, this is going off a little bit more on this particular angle on the story.
00:36:35.320 But it's like, we were told for how many years that the Russians were doing so many things like this that they were going to take, they took over the 2016 election and basically handed it to Donald Trump.
00:36:48.260 And that's basically what we were told from the media.
00:36:50.260 And you don't think they're doing the low hanging fruit?
00:36:52.620 And now we're in a position where we're funding $60 billion worth of missiles to fire at their people and their soldiers.
00:37:00.580 And they don't do it.
00:37:01.180 And they're like, no, I'm not going to do any cyber attacks right now.
00:37:03.400 Nothing's going on.
00:37:04.160 Yeah.
00:37:04.460 Really?
00:37:05.160 I want you to do something real quick.
00:37:06.640 I want you to Google, Google corrupted file.
00:37:10.100 One of the top links is from the U.S. government cybersecurity and infrastructure security agency.
00:37:16.820 Okay.
00:37:17.220 Just Google corrupted file.
00:37:18.780 Well, you'll see U.S. government cybersecurity.
00:37:21.540 Click on it.
00:37:23.680 Understanding hidden threats with corrupted software files.
00:37:29.840 It goes on to explain how hackers use phishing attacks to corrupt files on your computer and shut down like your life or like air traffic control.
00:37:42.340 Yeah, but we know that didn't happen.
00:37:44.820 There's no hacking involved at all.
00:37:46.440 No, of course not.
00:37:46.900 Nobody hacked into the system.
00:37:47.860 No, of course not.
00:37:48.300 It was probably, if there was hacking, it was a lone wolf.
00:37:50.920 Right?
00:37:51.300 Yes.
00:37:51.780 Definitely.
00:37:52.960 Definitely not something.
00:37:54.300 Maybe it could have been a Republican, an extreme, probably, probably a white supremacist.
00:37:59.520 Freedom caucus.
00:38:00.220 This is the sort of valuable stuff that happens on this program.
00:38:02.520 Glenn just asked me to just tell everybody, hey, search for corrupted file, which I listened.
00:38:07.000 I did that as he was talking, and I saw the first link, which is corruptafile.net, and apparently what the service is, is you, like, this is what it says.
00:38:17.980 Struggle with a report you can't complete?
00:38:20.200 Bored by an Excel sheet?
00:38:21.660 Tired with this code which won't work?
00:38:23.580 Send us your file and we'll corrupt it.
00:38:25.580 Your boss, customer, or teacher will think you delivered it on time and he can't open it due to a technology hassle.
00:38:30.680 Oh, my gosh.
00:38:31.000 Mission completed.
00:38:32.640 Oh, my gosh.
00:38:34.460 Fantastic.
00:38:34.860 You know, I have a feeling, though, that's a little like Googling, how do I dispose of a 115-pound body?
00:38:44.720 Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed.
00:38:46.660 Thank you for joining us, Pat.
00:38:47.880 Real estate agents, I trust.

00:39:27.240 Anyway, I was doing something else on the side at the time about, I don't know, 10 years ago, five years ago.
00:39:35.260 It's got to be about 10 or 15 years ago now.
00:39:37.400 Anyway, with the 500 best real estate agents in the country as named by the Wall Street Journal.
00:39:43.260 Well, I got to know them, and there's a reason they're the best.

00:40:17.460 Glenn Beck.
00:40:34.040 Okay, so the latest from the FAA is no evidence of a cyber attack.
00:40:39.620 It was corrupt files, and they were caused by human error.
00:40:46.240 Now, was that human error clicking on nude pics?
00:40:49.640 Is that what the human error was?
00:40:52.140 Because I know that's what the IT department always says, you know, hey, don't click on this.
00:40:56.580 If you see this subject, don't click on that.
00:40:58.800 That's human error.
00:41:00.420 Okay?
00:41:00.840 But it's intentional.
00:41:02.040 Who sent that?
00:41:02.980 And by the way, it didn't just affect the mainframe and shut that all down.
00:41:09.600 It went to the backup system as well.
00:41:13.040 So it shut both of them down.
00:41:17.480 Wow, that's a weird, corrupt file.
00:41:20.120 That is, what are the odds that it hits the U.S. and Canada and possibly the U.K.
00:41:26.560 At the same time?
00:41:28.580 All you need is three stupid people that are looking for nude pics.
00:41:33.000 Human error.
00:41:34.580 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:41:35.980 Thank you, Hillary.
00:41:36.740 Let me tell you about home title lock.
00:41:38.160 If you think home title fraud is the kind of thing that only happens to other people, have a listen to a convicted thief explaining exactly what happens after he forges your home's title and takes over as the new owner.
00:41:50.140 That I can take their house and borrow against the house.
00:41:52.340 Oh, no, I have title insurance for that.
00:41:54.520 No, it's in my name.
00:41:55.840 Or he would have to get some special document.
00:41:58.100 They would call me.
00:41:59.500 You know what he's calling you?
00:42:01.120 After I've stolen the title, borrowed against it, or sold the property, or done whatever I've done with it, it's 60 to 90 days to even figure out that they're the victim of this crime.
00:42:09.860 You know, by that point, you start getting foreclosure notices, and you realize you've got four mortgages on your house.
00:42:15.420 Not only that, you don't even own your home anymore.
00:42:17.400 It's not even in your name.
00:42:18.820 Home title fraud growing two and a half times faster than credit card fraud.
00:42:22.620 You could be a victim and not even know it yet.
00:42:24.940 You can protect yourself, however, with HomeTitleLock.com.

00:44:56.640 Mr. Bill O'Reilly, welcome to the program, The Biggest Story of the Week, sir.
00:45:01.800 What's your name again?
00:45:03.020 Yeah, I know.
00:45:03.700 We haven't talked to each other.
00:45:04.700 Yeah, I mean, Beck, I thought you were like ghosting me.
00:45:08.200 You know that phrase?
00:45:09.460 Well, let's not necessarily dismiss that.
00:45:12.520 No, that's not a Christmas thing.
00:45:16.880 So, first of all, how were your holidays?
00:45:19.080 I don't remember.
00:45:20.240 Good, good.
00:45:21.040 I didn't really ask because I cared.
00:45:22.880 Right, you don't.
00:45:23.400 So, Biggest Story of the Week, Bill.
00:45:26.480 Yeah, there are two.
00:45:28.300 I mean, and they all come under, both of them come under the overarch of not a good 13 days for Joe Biden.
00:45:36.760 Right.
00:45:37.740 In the first part of 2023.
00:45:40.620 So, this document thing, this is overhyped.
00:45:45.260 I mean, both men don't have the concentration span to go through documents and boxes.
00:45:51.320 Because, in my opinion, my humble opinion, they didn't know what was going on.
00:45:56.780 They just had people pack up stuff for them and put it.
00:46:00.160 So, neither of them, because you have to have intent, you have to prove intent to remove classified information.
00:46:07.480 And no special counsel is going to be able to do that for either Trump or Biden.
00:46:11.380 So, that'll go away.
00:46:13.220 But Trump is a happy guy because now, I mean, he's inoculated against a kind of unilateral action.
00:46:20.120 Correct.
00:46:21.320 And Hillary Clinton did worse stuff, by the way, than either of these two guys.
00:46:26.420 Oh, she should absolutely be in prison for what she did.
00:46:29.920 She had intent.
00:46:31.440 She had people go into the skiff and cut top secret off of the top and then fax it to her.
00:46:38.820 And then destroy the evidence.
00:46:40.720 But I wouldn't put her in prison.
00:46:42.460 I would have a work release program where she'd have to work for you.
00:46:48.300 No, thank you.
00:46:49.280 That would be punishment for me.
00:46:51.300 But Hillary, what else?
00:46:52.940 What worse could you do to her?
00:46:54.560 I know.
00:46:55.060 Then she has to show up at the blaze every day.
00:46:57.160 I know.
00:46:58.040 I know.
00:46:58.360 Okay.
00:46:58.980 All right.
00:46:59.260 So, hang on just a second.
00:47:01.140 Hang on just a second.
00:47:01.940 Go ahead.
00:47:02.700 Does this story tell you anything about the media as well?
00:47:07.780 The media just keeps digging their hole deeper and deeper and deeper.
00:47:12.460 There is no credibility left at all.
00:47:15.540 Well, the orders from the networks, not cable, different.
00:47:19.800 The orders from the network presidents, an NBC guy was just fired this week.
00:47:24.860 By the way.
00:47:25.380 Right.
00:47:25.980 To the correspondents of the White House where you better ask tough questions.
00:47:29.960 I know that to be true.
00:47:31.740 So, they were actually ordered.
00:47:33.700 Not to ask.
00:47:34.260 To ask tough questions from Ms. Jean-Pierre.
00:47:38.460 To ask.
00:47:39.020 To ask.
00:47:39.060 Jean-Pierre.
00:47:39.840 They were ordered to ask the tough questions.
00:47:42.440 They were asked.
00:47:43.240 They were ordered because the straits are so dire, particularly at CBS News, which is below
00:47:49.960 five million in viewing now.
00:47:51.860 Oh, my gosh.
00:47:52.280 I mean, I routinely did that on the factor.
00:47:54.560 I know.
00:47:55.000 You know, like that.
00:47:55.900 I did more than Nora O'Donnell was doing now.
00:47:59.660 But the other two are listing two.
00:48:02.960 So, they were ordered.
00:48:04.120 All of them were ordered by the presidents of the news divisions to ask tough questions,
00:48:08.620 whereupon John Peier simply doesn't answer them.
00:48:10.620 I will tell you that one of the things, the most disturbing part of this story is, you
00:48:15.580 know, top secret documents, that's a danger.
00:48:17.980 But that man driving his Corvette was shocking and a bigger danger.
00:48:24.740 It was so inappropriate for the president of the United States to start singing Little
00:48:30.420 Deuce Cooper.
00:48:31.220 I mean, just so bad.
00:48:32.960 You know, you got to take this seriously.
00:48:34.380 So bad.
00:48:35.000 When he said yesterday, you know, hey, I keep them in my garage and it's locked.
00:48:40.260 My Corvette is in there.
00:48:41.540 That is so unbelievably flippant.
00:48:46.660 Just so bad.
00:48:47.760 So bad.
00:48:48.960 But see, Beck, you think he knows what he's saying.
00:48:52.660 That's what he doesn't know what he's saying.
00:48:56.600 I mean, it's just he can't put stuff into perspective.
00:49:00.680 It's kind of like Stu.
00:49:02.600 You know, you say stuff and then, you know, Stu reacts.
00:49:08.240 But does he really understand the big picture here?
00:49:11.380 So Biden doesn't know what the big picture is.
00:49:13.460 All Biden knows is at least he knows your name, Stu.
00:49:17.020 That's true.
00:49:17.440 At least he knows your name.
00:49:19.080 All Biden knows is that there's trouble.
00:49:22.520 He doesn't really know why there's trouble.
00:49:25.200 And then he goes, well, we told the National Archives right away when we found it November
00:49:29.560 2nd.
00:49:30.940 Yeah.
00:49:31.480 And you didn't tell the public for two and a half months.
00:49:33.380 I think that's a cover up.
00:49:35.400 Right.
00:49:36.080 Right.
00:49:36.500 And this last batch in his garage, they knew on December 20th and never said anything until
00:49:42.340 yesterday.
00:49:42.800 It was really inappropriate, Beck, for Biden to offer the new special counsel a ride in
00:49:49.320 the car.
00:49:49.840 That's not what we should be doing.
00:49:52.900 Turn the key, Mr. Biden.
00:49:53.960 Let me let me ask you, Bill, why what's going on here?
00:49:58.760 Because you don't usually out yourself.
00:50:01.380 So what's happening?
00:50:03.340 Why is this story out and happening right now?
00:50:07.060 Because the media has nothing else to talk about now that the Idaho murder thing has been
00:50:11.880 solved with the guy in custody.
00:50:13.540 So I'm not diminishing the fact that Trump and Biden had no blank an idea of what documents
00:50:22.000 were being removed from their respective offices.
00:50:24.840 I'm not diminishing that.
00:50:26.680 But I can see it because neither man has a concentration span to go over documents.
00:50:32.940 I mean, you imagine Donald Trump packing boxes.
00:50:35.900 Yeah, but those documents, he may not know that they were there now, but those documents
00:50:40.320 were taken when, you know, from when he was a vice president.
00:50:43.960 This is Biden, right, right.
00:50:45.840 And then the right wing is making a big deal out of this that Trump had the power to declassify
00:50:51.440 and Biden didn't.
00:50:52.720 So Biden is much more heinous, but it doesn't matter.
00:50:56.940 OK, none of this matters because nothing's going to happen.
00:51:01.220 It's just an embarrassment right now for Biden.
00:51:04.220 He doesn't need that.
00:51:05.500 So let me get to the other.
00:51:06.460 Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:51:07.220 One more thing on this.
00:51:08.060 This is the this is the biggest problem with this story, I think, is that it doesn't
00:51:13.420 matter.
00:51:14.320 Top secret matters or it doesn't.
00:51:17.620 And the the worst thing that could be done is it's just become, well, they did it and
00:51:24.760 well, he did it.
00:51:25.680 And then I did it.
00:51:26.720 Well, mine was different than yours.
00:51:28.620 And that's why nobody's paying attention to any of these scandals, because everyone knows
00:51:34.320 nothing's going to happen.
00:51:36.560 All right.
00:51:36.900 Nothing's going to be done.
00:51:38.060 Nothing's going to be done.
00:51:39.400 Nope.
00:51:39.820 Yep.
00:51:40.000 And that's the way we have a corrupt federal government.
00:51:43.620 Correct.
00:51:44.420 OK.
00:51:44.780 Correct.
00:51:45.300 And when you have a corrupt system, there isn't any sense of fairness or justice because
00:51:52.500 it's corrupt.
00:51:53.420 Correct.
00:51:53.680 Look up the definition of corrupt.
00:51:55.400 Correct.
00:51:55.840 All right.
00:51:56.220 Correct.
00:51:56.420 So that's where we are.
00:51:57.520 But but let me get into the second one.
00:52:00.080 Yeah.
00:52:00.260 All right.
00:52:00.540 Go ahead.
00:52:00.800 Yeah, because and this is worse than the document for Biden, the three amigos down in
00:52:07.120 Mexico City and the media underplayed this big time because the media doesn't want to
00:52:15.080 tell the truth about what the situation is in Mexico.
00:52:19.660 So remember the South Park episodes, Blame Canada?
00:52:23.680 Yes.
00:52:24.420 This is Blame Mexico.
00:52:26.160 And I'm writing a column.
00:52:27.040 It'll be on Bill O'Reilly dot com on Sunday noon.
00:52:29.120 And Mexico is the problem here for the United States.
00:52:33.340 All right.
00:52:34.040 Not little Justin Trudeau.
00:52:36.020 He doesn't matter.
00:52:37.340 But Mexico is the problem.
00:52:39.880 Two reasons.
00:52:41.580 Forty four percent of the Mexican population lives in poverty.
00:52:46.540 Forty four percent.
00:52:48.620 So what do you expect them to do?
00:52:50.700 Exactly right.
00:52:51.480 They're going to come here.
00:52:52.980 OK.
00:52:54.280 And Mexico is the most violent country on Earth.
00:52:59.120 Oh, wait.
00:53:01.760 Over like Afghanistan.
00:53:03.580 And yes, it's way worse than Miramar or China.
00:53:09.380 Sixty six thousand people last year were either murdered or disappeared in Mexico.
00:53:17.100 Sixty six thousand in America, which has three times as many people as Mexico.
00:53:23.200 We had twenty three thousand homicides.
00:53:26.580 Wow.
00:53:26.960 When you have that level of violence.
00:53:29.420 All right.
00:53:30.260 That the government cannot control.
00:53:33.100 Then you look at, well, who's doing it?
00:53:35.700 The drug cartels are running the country.
00:53:40.060 Correct.
00:53:40.260 Correct.
00:53:40.980 All right.
00:53:41.380 So Obrador standing there with Biden and little Justin say, oh, we're equal partners and we're yet.
00:53:49.860 It's a bunch of garbage.
00:53:52.280 All of our immigration and narcotics problems are caused by Mexico.
00:53:57.540 And no one will tell the truth about that.
00:54:02.680 Obrador cannot control his country.
00:54:06.220 There is no local police in Mexico because the cartel will walk in and say, hey, Jose, you do what we say or we'll kill you and your family.
00:54:14.540 And Jose is making fourteen thousand a year.
00:54:17.280 What do you think Jose is going to do?
00:54:19.040 They dissolve the national police there in Mexico because it was so corrupt.
00:54:25.840 There's no, no law enforcement in that entire country.
00:54:31.220 So therefore, tons of narcotics are sent into the United States, killing hundreds of thousands of people.
00:54:39.620 And Biden sits there going, hey, we're the most secure border ever.
00:54:43.960 It is that is talk about corruption and a scandal.
00:54:48.160 And that is a story.
00:54:50.140 Oh, I never get it from the media.
00:54:52.260 I believe I believe the government is more than than just tolerating it.
00:54:58.080 The government is in bed now with with the bad guys.
00:55:02.960 Of course.
00:55:03.660 Yes.
00:55:04.000 Now, I'm not going to I'm not going to accuse Obrador of taking bribes, but it's not inconceivable.
00:55:11.320 It's happened before.
00:55:12.320 And it's it's not I'm not saying that, you know, Joe Biden is calling up the drug lords either and saying, hey, we need your help on this.
00:55:18.920 It's just all you have to do is avert your eyes and you are working with them because you won't call them out.
00:55:27.580 Lie about they lied about it.
00:55:29.660 All three of them standing there.
00:55:32.320 You know, you this and the media goes along with it, because if you criticize Mexico, you're racist.
00:55:39.640 You're racist.
00:55:41.280 You can't do that.
00:55:43.140 I mean, meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of Americans are dying.
00:55:46.600 The solution to this problem isn't hard.
00:55:49.600 Under the Patriot Act, the U.S. government designates the Mexican drug cartels as terrorists and we wax them.
00:55:55.940 If you read killing the killers, and I know you did back, we have the authority to do that because the Mexican drug cartels are killing far more people than Arqaeda or ISIS ever did.
00:56:10.720 And they're running wild doing it.
00:56:13.340 And no one's going to stop them.
00:56:16.060 And we're enriching them.
00:56:16.760 No one.
00:56:17.700 It makes me crazy.
00:56:19.680 It makes me crazy.
00:56:21.300 Can I ask your opinion of what you think of our governor here in Texas?
00:56:25.140 I mean, Ron DeSantis is doing big things in Florida, which, as a Texan, I'm really embarrassed by our state.
00:56:34.540 And he has the ability to rally the country, but he just won't do it.
00:56:43.020 He will not stop this in our own state.
00:56:47.980 So you're criticizing him?
00:56:50.060 Oh, yeah, I am.
00:56:51.920 I am.
00:56:52.280 So what do you want him to do?
00:56:53.340 I want him to do what Ron DeSantis is doing and make very clear stances, be out in front of this, secure our border, whatever it takes, secure our border, use the constitutional language of an invasion.
00:57:13.100 This is an invasion.
00:57:15.360 Texas has fundamentally changed in the last two years.
00:57:20.320 You're going to lose your country.
00:57:21.740 Well, I agree with that, but I don't know.
00:57:26.220 The border is so long in Texas that the state doesn't have the personnel to stop this.
00:57:34.820 You're telling me.
00:57:35.600 And then it's hamstrung because it can't go to the border.
00:57:39.840 You know what?
00:57:40.520 You know what?
00:57:40.980 The sheriff of the county, it wasn't Fort Worth.
00:57:47.520 I can't remember which county.
00:57:48.380 But he said to me, I said, what happens if they start coming for guns here in Texas, do you think?
00:57:54.200 He said, well, in my county, I deputize every single person in my county and deputies need to have a gun.
00:58:00.620 They're not touching guns here.
00:58:02.440 That's the Texas attitude.
00:58:04.180 Are you telling me that Texans won't stand up for their own state?
00:58:10.520 He could deputize people and actually not just everybody's deputy, deputize people, train people, and they would volunteer to seal this border.
00:58:21.500 They would do it.
00:58:22.320 There's enough Americans and Texans here that would do that.
00:58:27.240 He's never going to do that because the potential for violence there is far too great when you get a vigilante force.
00:58:35.380 I'm not talking about a vigilante force.
00:58:37.420 Well, I know you're not, but most people who would be deputized are good people and would obey the structure, but there's going to be other people who won't.
00:58:43.260 And, you know, so I understand it's a federal problem.
00:58:50.100 And in the Constitution, the federal government is in charge of immigration.
00:58:56.820 According to the Constitution, unless the federal government is not responsive.
00:59:03.460 Yeah, but he's already declared a state of emergency in Texas, and he's already put resources on the border.
00:59:10.740 Now, maybe the National Guard, maybe more of them down there to embarrass Biden and, you know, continue to put the pressure on Biden.
00:59:22.120 But I told my audience on BillOReilly.com that Biden's not going to do anything about this problem.
00:59:27.640 So you've got two more years of him, and the border problem is not going to be solved in any way by him.
00:59:34.580 He doesn't care about it.
00:59:36.160 He simply doesn't care.
00:59:37.940 It's unbelievable to think that this is true, but it's happened before in our history where we've had presidents allowing unbelievable problems to mount, and they don't care.
00:59:49.280 All right, final thought from Bill O'Reilly coming up in just a second.
00:59:51.940 Let me take one minute and tell you about good ranchers.
00:59:54.700 Made in America isn't the sacred phrase that it used to be.
00:59:59.720 Nobody's telling the truth on this.
01:00:01.240 When it comes to meat, you go into a grocery store, and you'll see product of USA on the meat that you buy.
01:00:09.720 That's not true.
01:00:11.240 Many, many times, that's absolutely untrue.
01:00:14.820 It's coming from foreign countries, and they found a loophole to be able to put the little flag on there.
01:00:20.300 We have got to support our local farms and our local ranchers.
01:00:24.780 If you have a local farmer's market, start buying your food at a farmer's market.
01:00:30.620 If you know a farm that can provide things, just do it.
01:00:34.400 We have to support our local farms and our ranchers, and here's one way you can do it with good ranchers.
01:00:40.160 Right now, you can get over two pounds of chicken free in every box of meat that you have for a year when you subscribe.

01:01:32.820 We have Mr. Bill O'Reilly with us now.
01:01:37.580 Bill, final thoughts.
01:01:39.820 Next biggest story of the week or some in-depth analysis of something.
01:01:44.880 Okay.
01:01:46.880 What we're going to see now is a bunch of leaks coming out about Hunter Biden.
01:01:57.080 So, the next time we talk, which I think is going to be in April, Beck, is that what you have in the schedule?
01:02:01.120 Yeah, well, if we're lucky.
01:02:03.500 Okay.
01:02:03.740 So, you're going to start to see this whole document thing, and let's say, discover more documents, which they could.
01:02:11.260 Biden has no idea where his socks are.
01:02:13.520 I mean, he doesn't know.
01:02:14.460 Right.
01:02:14.640 So, you're going to start to see, as these committees ramp up, particularly the Jordan Committee and the Comer Committee in the House, you're going to see that they're going to start to compile information, and it's going to get leaked.
01:02:29.920 From which side?
01:02:31.020 It's going to get leaked anti-Biden.
01:02:34.440 Okay.
01:02:34.960 All right.
01:02:35.280 All right.
01:02:35.840 So, you're going to have a series of these leaks coming out about Hunter Biden did this, and Joe Biden did that, and the Chinese people did this, and that's going to start to mount.
01:02:46.400 Now, in every one of those cases, the media, which is a part of the Biden administration, you know, that they work in conjunction with the Democratic Party, which is why the White House correspondents had to be ordered to ask tough questions about the documents.
01:03:06.800 So, the media is going to have to respond to this, and they're going to be on the defensive.
01:03:10.440 And the smarter of the liberal pundits are going to go, I don't know if I want to defend Hunter Biden.
01:03:17.980 Right.
01:03:18.740 Okay?
01:03:19.140 Because that's a pretty dicey thing to do.
01:03:21.240 I will tell you, the piece that came out from the New York Times this week on Hunter Biden was absolutely jaw-dropping in its defense of Biden.
01:03:33.140 And honestly, Bill, I'd love to hear your opinion.
01:03:35.380 We've got about 30 seconds.
01:03:36.480 I think it's a mistake to leak that out.
01:03:38.720 I think he'd get all of the evidence and pound it in a hearing.
01:03:42.900 That's going to happen, though.
01:03:43.860 That's good.
01:03:44.180 Because they want to stay in the news cycle.
01:03:45.940 They want to drip, drip, drip it, just like they did with Trump.
01:03:49.660 The same thing is going to happen to Biden.
01:03:52.340 And that's the big story that we'll be on and chatting about.
01:03:55.680 And I don't know how it's going to all work out.
01:03:57.900 The big thing is, did Hunter give his father cash?
01:04:02.400 That's it.
01:04:03.300 That's the big thing.
01:04:04.500 Clearly, yes.
01:04:05.220 Thank you so much.
01:04:06.020 Bill O'Reilly will talk to you again.

01:04:25.020 You know, the one thing that is so important for all of us is sleep.
01:04:30.820 And if you can't sleep, I didn't sleep really have any kind of dreams for 10 years.
01:04:37.140 And you don't complain about that when you're just, you know, I can coast on three hours of sleep.
01:04:42.340 It's great.
01:04:43.000 When you're tossing and turning, you just want that to stop.
01:04:45.920 I will tell you that it is hard for me to fall asleep.
01:04:50.340 Once I'm asleep, I'm pretty good.

01:06:00.640 Okay?
01:06:01.280 And I'll explain that afterwards.
01:06:03.080 But I want to play a few clips here for you.
01:06:05.340 This is not an old clip of Kamala Harris talking about electric school buses.
01:06:10.880 This is a new one.
01:06:12.480 Just happened.
01:06:13.540 Here's Kamala Harris in front of a group of adults and the transportation agency
01:06:20.940 talking about one of her favorite things.
01:06:24.320 Here it is.
01:06:25.220 You know what also excites me?
01:06:26.940 Among the many things?
01:06:28.900 I'm excited about electric school buses.
01:06:32.120 I love electric school buses.
01:06:35.820 I just love them for so many reasons.
01:06:39.580 Maybe because I went to school on a school bus.
01:06:43.040 Raise your hand if you went to school on a school bus.
01:06:46.720 Right?
01:06:47.900 Right.
01:06:48.380 Oh my gosh, this woman is nuts.
01:06:52.260 I mean, this is, I feel like, the 10th time I've seen this clip.
01:06:54.860 Oh yeah.
01:06:55.040 Does she say this at every speech?
01:06:56.320 Oh, I don't know.
01:06:57.060 But that wasn't even a speech.
01:06:58.120 That was a question and answer thing.
01:06:59.960 You know, so what else is going on?
01:07:01.340 You know what I'm excited about?
01:07:02.840 School buses.
01:07:03.840 Oh my gosh.
01:07:05.680 Then, in answering another question, listen to this.
01:07:10.980 I convened, and I've convened now at least three times, a group that has their acronym, CARICOM.
01:07:18.580 It is the Caribbean nations, island nations, in the Western Hemisphere.
01:07:25.040 That is where the Caribbean is.
01:07:26.560 We are also in the Western Hemisphere.
01:07:28.180 They are our neighbors.
01:07:29.520 Oh dear God.
01:07:30.240 I mean...
01:07:30.940 Who is she talking?
01:07:31.740 Is she talking to school children?
01:07:33.100 No, she's talking to a group of so-called informed adults that went to go listen to her and the transportation people about what the future is for...
01:07:46.580 If you're telling them that we're in the Western Hemisphere, if those people don't know that we're in the Western Hemisphere, we're more screwed than I think.
01:07:57.220 And we're so screwed, I think Jesus is coming soon.
01:08:02.100 May I ask for your expert opinion on something related to this?
01:08:05.640 Uh-huh.
01:08:06.420 You're a guy who's got around...
01:08:09.320 You lived a little when you were younger.
01:08:10.940 Lived a little.
01:08:11.320 Yeah, you lived a little when you were younger.
01:08:12.640 There was some drug...
01:08:16.720 Yes.
01:08:17.160 You were in that world.
01:08:18.460 Yes.
01:08:19.220 I have a friend whose theory is that Kamala Harris is constantly high.
01:08:24.600 No.
01:08:25.580 No.
01:08:25.900 No.
01:08:26.580 No.
01:08:27.220 No.
01:08:27.620 The theory is that...
01:08:28.620 She is constantly low.
01:08:29.700 Low IQ.
01:08:31.260 She is dumb as a box of sand.
01:08:35.140 She is.
01:08:35.520 You might as well take a sandbag, put it in heels, and there's your vice president.
01:08:42.100 You will be safer as a nation.
01:08:44.040 May God have mercy on our soul.
01:08:46.100 But does dumb make you laugh hysterically at the idea of an electric school bus?
01:08:52.460 I would say no.
01:08:53.580 No, she's fake.
01:08:53.700 She's dumb.
01:08:55.120 So she doesn't know how to do things.
01:08:57.160 Her job is to promote electric school buses.
01:09:00.220 She doesn't know how to do it.
01:09:02.060 So she overacts, and she looks crazy and dumb.
01:09:09.220 She's not high.
01:09:11.380 She's not crazy.
01:09:13.180 She's just dumb.
01:09:15.540 But she's not the best clip.
01:09:18.420 I want to play a clip of Hank Johnson.
01:09:21.880 Now, I want to remind you who Hank Johnson is.
01:09:25.840 Now, let's listen to what he said this week to a reporter outside of the Capitol when they found out and they asked him, what do you think about the top secret documents of Biden?
01:09:39.200 Listen.
01:09:39.360 My response to it all is that alleged classified documents showing up allegedly in the possession of Joseph Biden, you know, I mean, there's so much that needs to be investigated.
01:09:57.900 Oh, and we agree.
01:09:58.340 And that's what I call for, is for everything to be investigated.
01:10:02.440 But I'm suspicious of the timing of it.
01:10:05.200 I'm also aware of the fact that things can be planted on people.
01:10:11.280 Places and things can be planted.
01:10:14.900 Things can be planted in places and then discovered conveniently.
01:10:20.540 That may be what has occurred here.
01:10:23.000 I'm not ruling that out.
01:10:24.740 But I'm open in terms of the investigation needs to be investigated.
01:10:29.080 Yeah, I will tell you, things can be planted.
01:10:31.500 And and there's a history of people at Joe Biden's houses where they people groups of people come out and plant things right around his garage.
01:10:42.900 They're called bushes and trees.
01:10:45.360 But if they can plant that at his house, why can't they plant the top secret documents?
01:10:50.040 He's he's he's brilliant.
01:10:51.380 Let me remind you who this genius is.
01:10:55.660 This is what he said when he's talking to an admiral about the number of Marines we have on the island of Guam.
01:11:03.200 Listen, very small island and about 24 miles, if I recall, long.
01:11:10.000 So 24 miles long, about seven miles wide at the least widest place on the island.
01:11:20.040 And about 20, about 12 miles wide.
01:11:24.920 My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and and capsize.
01:11:39.120 Oh, dear God.
01:11:40.200 Oh, we don't anticipate that.
01:11:42.980 That's the admiral.
01:11:44.880 The admiral, because he's in uniform, has to say we don't anticipate that problem.
01:11:49.800 I would give my right arm to have been the one under question when he asked that question, because my response would have been first.
01:12:05.120 Look to the left, look to the left, look to the right, look right directly into the camera and say, it's not just me.
01:12:13.780 Right, right.
01:12:14.840 And then say, sir, that that that that is not even worthy of an answer.
01:12:24.220 You, sir, are a moron.
01:12:27.160 If you think that islands will capsize that we have to balance Guam and Hawaii and all of these islands.
01:12:34.960 That's not the way it works.
01:12:38.580 And may God have mercy on not your soul.
01:12:41.940 May God have mercy on the souls of everyone who voted for you.
01:12:47.140 Because at this time, these people are so stupid or ignorant or they just don't care that they can't see that you are a complete and total moron.
01:13:05.460 But I think I just gave the Adam Sandler speech.
01:13:09.660 Mr. Madison, what you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.
01:13:18.300 At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought.
01:13:28.440 Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.
01:13:33.240 I award you no points.
01:13:35.960 And may God have mercy on your soul.
01:13:37.660 God is so true.
01:13:40.340 I mean, think about this.
01:13:41.680 That clip from the Guam clip with Hank Johnson was 2010.
01:13:45.800 He's won re-election like six times since then.
01:13:49.580 Right.
01:13:50.200 And I will say, I am disappointed in the entire media.
01:13:55.040 I want to hear commentary about every issue from Hank Johnson.
01:13:59.980 Anytime anything happens, put a microphone in front of this man's face and let him talk about it.
01:14:05.440 I just want to know what he's thinking.
01:14:07.000 If you do that, he will be the secretary of transportation.
01:14:11.220 Okay.
01:14:12.600 I mean, oh my, how, shame on everyone in his district.
01:14:19.180 Shame on everyone in his district.
01:14:21.840 You cannot be that stupid.
01:14:24.400 You can't.
01:14:25.100 It's impossible.
01:14:27.460 It's impossible.
01:14:29.200 Impossible like Guam capsizing impossible?
01:14:31.640 Like Guam capsizing impossible.
01:14:35.460 You cannot be that.
01:14:36.900 And if you are that stupid, we really need to just go there as as people, hug them, hold their hand, say, God bless you.
01:14:49.120 You bless your heart.
01:14:50.600 You are so cute.
01:14:51.600 But you shouldn't vote anymore.
01:14:55.280 In fact, as a country, we cannot allow you to vote because you think Guam could capsize?
01:15:03.700 And if you don't, you thought it was okay to keep that guy in office because that wasn't a good question.
01:15:12.500 Wasn't a good question.
01:15:13.600 Wasn't a good thought.
01:15:15.980 Wasn't.
01:15:16.840 So bless your heart, sweetheart.
01:15:19.060 You are.
01:15:19.800 Oh, you're so cute.
01:15:21.500 You're so cute.
01:15:22.180 No voting rights for you.
01:15:24.580 I am.
01:15:25.260 I am really to the point to where I don't want some litmus test where, you know, where we have to test people.
01:15:32.160 They'd be genius.
01:15:34.480 I just like them.
01:15:36.500 Do you think this could be the only question?
01:15:40.180 Do you think an island could capsize if we put too many people on one side of the island?
01:15:46.700 If they even hesitate, you're out.
01:15:49.680 Now, I don't think that is, you know, that's not racist what they, you know, did where they would put, you know, all these tough questions.
01:15:59.000 How many windows in the White House?
01:16:00.620 No, no.
01:16:01.220 No, no, no.
01:16:01.740 I want to test white people, black people, Asians.
01:16:05.420 I want to test anyone who says they want to vote.
01:16:09.640 Do you think an island could capsize?
01:16:12.480 Well, nope.
01:16:13.400 Sorry.
01:16:14.100 I can't find your name anywhere in the records.
01:16:16.380 Can't find it.
01:16:18.840 Oh.
01:16:19.680 Hey, I've got a really good podcast coming out tomorrow, and I want to talk to you about it in just a second.
01:16:27.000 First, I have CarShield for a lot of reasons, but one of the most important reasons is I don't want to buy new trucks.
01:16:34.320 I like my trucks.
01:16:36.360 They are fine.
01:16:37.820 They're farm trucks.
01:16:39.060 They don't even have to look pretty.
01:16:40.340 I don't care, honestly, half the year if they even have doors.
01:16:45.420 I just want them to be able to haul the cattle.
01:16:48.520 That's what I want them to do.
01:16:50.060 I want them to haul stuff.
01:16:52.600 And when they break down, and if it's really expensive to fix because it's a chip or something like that, I had a $7,000 repair.
01:17:00.500 The truck wasn't worth $7,000.
01:17:02.820 I had a $7,000 repair on a truck, and I'm like, oh, crap.
01:17:07.120 I get to the dealership, and he says, there are the keys, all taken care of.
01:17:12.480 And I'm like, you don't have to wait.
01:17:16.180 I don't know.
01:17:16.780 He's like, no, this fix happened to be covered by CarShield.
01:17:20.100 This is an honest thing.
01:17:23.240 I honestly, my first thought was, get out of here before they realize maybe that was wrong.
01:17:29.960 Just get out.
01:17:31.900 I didn't even want to question it.
01:17:33.740 I was like, of course it was covered by cars.
01:17:36.000 Absolutely it was.
01:17:38.220 That's the kind of surprises that you like, especially with insurance.
01:17:42.760 So this is health insurance for your car.
01:17:45.540 If you want your car to just keep running and running and running because you don't want to have to buy a new one, you can't afford to have it break down, they have all kinds of different coverage.
01:17:55.220 You pick the coverage.
01:17:56.180 They have them starting at around $100 a month.

01:18:24.300 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:18:40.160 All right.
01:18:40.800 Hey, you think right now, man, my life sucks.
01:18:44.980 My life sucks.
01:18:45.880 Well, it doesn't suck as much as it does for Michael Bay.
01:18:48.640 He is going into court in Italy, being charged with murder.
01:18:54.040 Would you, I mean, would you consider this murder?
01:18:55.920 Yeah.
01:18:56.160 Homicide.
01:18:58.580 Being charged, I think, with murder.
01:19:01.220 This is the third attempt.
01:19:02.880 He's had to try to make this go away three different times.
01:19:06.340 He has gone to court, and the Italian, you know, they're tired of these Americans coming
01:19:12.560 over here and killing people, and then, you know, just getting away with it scot-free.
01:19:17.300 So, Michael Bay, I don't think so.
01:19:19.360 Michael Bay, the director of great action films.
01:19:22.160 I think some of the Mission Impossibles and others.
01:19:24.380 He's really great.
01:19:25.060 Well, in 2018, let's see if Alec Baldwin doesn't come to mind, a set of 2018's Netflix movie
01:19:33.840 that he made, Six Underground.
01:19:35.760 So, this is made in 2018.
01:19:37.560 It's all over.
01:19:38.000 Apparently, apparently, this according to, well, they say they have video on this, a homing
01:19:47.220 pigeon was allegedly killed by a dolly in the middle of a film take in Rome.
01:19:54.980 No.
01:19:55.460 Yes.
01:19:56.280 Now, just so I can talk to the Kamala Harris fans in the audience, a dolly, in this case,
01:20:03.860 is not like something that you or Kamala sleep with every night.
01:20:08.820 No.
01:20:09.240 This dolly is on, like, little railroad tracks, and it has the camera on it, and it goes forward
01:20:15.180 and backward so they can get a smooth shot.
01:20:17.560 That's what it does.
01:20:18.080 So, unless the pigeon were, I don't know, tied to that track by some mustachioed dark pigeon
01:20:28.840 with a top hat, and the Canadian Mountie didn't arrive enough to, in time, soon enough to untie
01:20:36.600 little Nell, the pigeon, from the track, I don't think, I mean, that's just, they were
01:20:42.280 shooting, the pigeon was on the track, nobody saw it, and it got run over.
01:20:47.980 And I don't know if you know this, pigeons are dirty, filthy, awful animals, okay?
01:20:53.340 They're rats with feathers.
01:20:55.860 God makes a lot of them.
01:20:57.760 Nobody in the pigeon world is going, a pigeon could have been a star.
01:21:03.080 It's not happening.
01:21:05.140 Is there some reverence for pigeons in this?
01:21:07.620 Like, because you could go into any restaurant in this country and get any other bird on a
01:21:13.200 plate.
01:21:13.700 Oh, yeah.
01:21:14.140 And they'd be totally fine with that and celebrate it, but it's because it got run over.
01:21:18.160 Yeah, because it got run over by Michael Bay.
01:21:19.800 Now, Michael has tried to settle this three times in Italian court.
01:21:24.720 Three times he's been in court trying to get it thrown out.
01:21:27.300 And they've said, look, just pay a minimal fine, no big deal, and we'll throw it out.
01:21:32.040 And he's like, I'm not paying you a dollar, and I'm not admitting that I hurt an animal.
01:21:37.480 I love animals.
01:21:38.620 There was no animal that was hurt on my set from anything we did.
01:21:44.120 I'm not going to take blame for this pigeon.
01:21:46.200 No.
01:21:47.380 So he's going in.
01:21:48.740 He has been doing this now, fighting in court for a year.
01:21:54.620 But this movie was made, and they went to the Italian authorities in 2018.
01:22:03.840 So if you ever think you're having a bad day, just think if you didn't run over a pigeon
01:22:09.600 in Italy with a little teeny railroad track, okay?
01:22:13.600 Your life's pretty sweet.
01:22:15.420 Can you even believe that story is even true?
01:22:17.940 Do you know, in France, they serve this as some little teeny bird.
01:22:23.140 I don't remember what it is.
01:22:24.360 But they actually cook it in such a way, whole, whole.
01:22:28.380 And they just, you know, fry it up.
01:22:31.020 And you pop it in your mouth.
01:22:33.020 You eat it.
01:22:33.700 Bones and all.
01:22:34.500 Okay?
01:22:34.640 It is, you have to wear, the tradition is, you hold a napkin in front of your face while
01:22:42.300 you eat it.
01:22:43.060 And the deal is, so God doesn't see you in such decadence.
01:22:50.060 And they're worried about a pigeon sitting on a railroad track.
01:22:55.080 I mean, I think people need to get their priorities right.
01:23:01.660 Back in just a minute.
01:23:03.280 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:23:04.660 American Giant would like to thank you for doing business with them.
01:23:08.080 They started advertising on this program.
01:23:09.760 I did an interview because I read about this company, American Giant, that was trying to
01:23:16.520 bring clothing manufacturing back to America.
01:23:19.600 America, you know, and it was a California company.
01:23:22.360 And I thought, oh, well, these guys probably hate us.
01:23:24.100 But they made these great, you remember the old sweatshirts that used to be made in America.
01:23:30.080 They made them the same.
01:23:31.480 You can't buy them anywhere.
01:23:33.020 And I found out as I interviewed this guy on air that in 2012, there was this manufacturing,
01:23:39.780 clothing manufacturing company that was closing.
01:23:42.360 And all of these people with all the skill were being let go.
01:23:45.240 And the now owner of American Giant thought that we can't let this happen.
01:23:49.000 So he started it.
01:23:50.640 He brought back the machinery, retrained people.
01:23:54.260 And now they just make some of the best clothing.
01:23:56.920 And it is all made here in America.
01:23:59.800 And I mean, it's all sourced in America.
01:24:02.280 Every button, every thread, every jar of ink that is used.
01:24:06.240 I mean, it's all American.
01:24:08.500 Thank you for going and visiting their website and buying some of their clothing.
01:24:13.300 You're buying real American and you're buying restoration.
01:24:17.140 When you go to American-Giant.com slash Glenn.
01:24:21.040 Go there now.
01:24:21.520 Got no room to compromise.
01:24:44.240 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:25:09.240 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:25:14.240 Hello, America. Welcome to Friday.
01:25:17.740 I want to start the show the way I or end the show today the way I began the show on Monday of this week.
01:25:25.460 And that is talking about gratitude.
01:25:28.380 I really believe one of our bigger problems is we don't we look at our shortcomings.
01:25:34.980 We only talk about how bad things are.
01:25:37.020 We only we're all bitching and moaning about this or that.
01:25:40.780 And we don't really realize how good life is, how great things really are, even in their worst.
01:25:50.340 Would you live at any other time than this time and in this country?
01:25:55.660 If you look at world history, I wouldn't.
01:25:59.320 I really wouldn't.
01:26:00.700 And we think it's so bad.
01:26:02.180 It is bad because it can be so much better.
01:26:05.760 But we have to have gratitude.
01:26:07.960 But is it enough just to have gratitude or do you need to put that into practice to be able to be healthy and whole, which are our country is struggling with happiness.
01:26:22.900 We are a depressed, medicine taking group of people that a lot of them just nihilist.
01:26:31.340 So gratitude, does it play a role?
01:26:34.000 I'm going to talk to one of the guys who is the biggest authority on happiness and gratitude, probably in the world.
01:26:43.460 He has studied it his whole life.
01:26:45.660 We'll go there in 60 seconds.
01:26:48.120 Name a piece of technology that you're on more every day than your phone.
01:26:54.280 I'll wait.
01:26:54.900 I'll wait.
01:26:55.280 I mean, be honest, right?
01:26:57.120 If you're one of those rare people who can limit their screen time efficiently, good for you.
01:27:02.300 But you still rely on your phone a lot.
01:27:05.280 So you really need good, affordable services.
01:27:08.120 But you also want to do business with people who are not fighting against your values and your principles.
01:27:16.260 And we're not talking about, ah, they believe in a higher tax code.
01:27:20.580 We're so far past that now.
01:27:23.600 I'm looking for somebody who believes in the Bill of Rights.
01:27:26.760 Can you give me nine out of the top ten on the Bill of Rights?
01:27:30.220 If you can, we're buddies.
01:27:32.980 We have no arguments between us that make any real difference.
01:27:38.580 Well, with the phone companies, some of them are promoting abortion with donations to Planned Parenthood, which they have perfect right to do.
01:27:48.360 But I prefer none of my money going to that company that they'll take their profits and fight against the things that I'm for.
01:27:55.140 Patriot Mobile is the only Christian conservative cell company out there.
01:28:00.120 And they are standing for life.
01:28:02.520 They are in our neighborhoods trying to help us stand against some of the stuff that is happening in our schools.
01:28:10.440 And every time you make a phone call, that money is going to them.
01:28:14.840 And they're helping us.
01:28:16.700 Stand with the people who are standing with you.
01:28:18.080 It's patriotmobile.com slash Beck.
01:28:19.880 You'll save money, get great phone service, and you'll support a company that's supporting you.

01:28:35.840 Dr. Paul Zak.
01:28:37.600 He is a Claremont Graduate University professor, which usually does not go in somebody's favor on this program.
01:28:45.400 But in his case, it's a great thing.
01:28:48.400 He has been studying scientifically how to improve your attitude in your life, how to create experiences that are really good, because we're changing as a society.
01:29:02.480 I want to talk to him specifically about gratitude.
01:29:06.440 His latest book is called Immersion, The Science of Extraordinary and the Source of Happiness.
01:29:14.080 Welcome, Paul.
01:29:14.880 How are you, sir?
01:29:16.300 Good morning, Glenn.
01:29:17.140 Great to talk to you.
01:29:18.020 Great to talk to you.
01:29:18.900 So I started the week asking my audience to start recognizing things that they're grateful for, because I think we're so far away from understanding gratitude and applying the actual action that that should turn your gratitude into.
01:29:40.180 We don't even recognize the things most of the time that we're grateful for.
01:29:44.900 Can you talk to me a little bit about the science of gratitude and how it changes or perhaps doesn't change our life?
01:29:54.100 Right.
01:29:54.700 I think your setup was exactly correct, that we have things that are so good now for most of us that we just feel like we're entitled to perfection.
01:30:03.760 But we are a social species, and we need the other people around us to really live satisfied lives.
01:30:11.900 So the data show that people who are grateful live longer and live healthier.
01:30:17.000 That is, they flourish better.
01:30:18.760 And they flourish because they're connected to those around us.
01:30:22.100 So when we are the opposite of grateful, when we're entitled, who wants to be around that person?
01:30:27.440 Oh, it's the worst.
01:30:28.180 I've noticed that because I used to be a despicable human being, alcoholic, and I was just really in my 30s, and I sobered up, and I started to live my life completely differently.
01:30:40.360 And I used to think I hate people, and that's when I was miserable.
01:30:44.640 I love people now, and I love talking to people.
01:30:47.140 I love going into a diner and the waitress, and we'll strike up a conversation.
01:30:53.740 What's your life like?
01:30:54.640 What's happening?
01:30:55.660 And it makes me happier.
01:30:58.180 It just makes me happier.
01:31:00.920 Yeah, and our brains evolved in human beings to connect to others.
01:31:05.280 So we have specific anatomical functions that are different than any other animal that, as you said, give us that value of social connection.
01:31:13.580 And when we're grateful, we are pleasant to be around.
01:31:17.440 We are aware of other people's emotions.
01:31:19.780 We let those people into our lives and vice versa.
01:31:23.140 And so we end up being of service to others, right?
01:31:27.000 And when you're nice to that waitress, she also has a better day.
01:31:30.480 And then we start this virtuous cycle where you have a nice customer, the waitress is happy, she's nicer to the next customer.
01:31:37.080 And that's the way that we can improve society.
01:31:39.780 So social media has got to destroy happiness.
01:31:43.880 With everything we're doing, we're on our phones all the time.
01:31:47.180 Man, kids are sitting next to each other, and they're not talking, they're texting each other.
01:31:50.880 You know, with AI starting to come, there's an app now where, you know, you can have an AI friend that will talk to you.
01:32:00.500 That's not the same.
01:32:02.740 And it's just not, it seems to me that that's one of the things that we are really missing is a closeness to a physical friend or family.
01:32:16.080 We're just caught up in this world, and that world that we're in is also telling us you don't have enough.
01:32:24.560 Somebody has more.
01:32:25.520 Like every good question, the answer is yes and no, right?
01:32:29.460 To the extent that people are lonely, that is not adaptive for human beings.
01:32:34.180 It's, you know, a big risk factor for early death and unhappiness.
01:32:37.540 So social media, in studies we've done, gives you between 50% and 80% of a real in-person interaction.
01:32:45.920 So it's not a bad substitute.
01:32:48.160 Now, the in-person, you have so much more bandwidth hitting your brain, right?
01:32:51.640 You have touch, you have smell, you have eye contact.
01:32:54.740 So you need that in-person interaction if you can get it.
01:32:57.840 But if you can't, I think social media is not a bad substitute if you're using that to form connections.
01:33:03.820 So not just looking at, you know, a five-second TikTok, but actually doing FaceTime, you know, connecting to people on Facebook, whatever it is.
01:33:12.080 Actually talking to people or communicating one-on-one with somebody.
01:33:17.120 For sure.
01:33:18.940 And what's really cool is that that one-on-one builds our capacity to emotionally connect to others very rapidly.
01:33:28.100 So the more we connect, the easier it is.
01:33:30.520 And here's the really cool thing from a health perspective.
01:33:33.100 Those social connections reduce cardiovascular stress, improve the immune system, keep us healthier and happier.
01:33:41.020 Okay, but may I just clarify one thing?
01:33:43.480 That's not tweeting something and then reading the responses.
01:33:48.260 What you're talking about is an actual community, even if it's text back and forth with one another.
01:33:54.960 You're talking about one-on-one communication or not?
01:33:59.000 Yes, sir.
01:33:59.500 One-on-one, exactly.
01:34:00.560 Okay.
01:34:01.040 All right.
01:34:05.780 I'm sure you know about, you know, Glenn Fox and imagine you're a Holocaust survivor.
01:34:11.360 So everything is, everything's better than that.
01:34:13.860 Um, right.
01:34:14.820 Uh, Viktor Frankl, however, in Man's Search for Meaning, he found meaning because nothing had meaning.
01:34:21.940 Does gratitude play a role at that point on a level we can all understand?
01:34:29.920 It does to the extent that it connects us to others, right?
01:34:33.420 So Frankl found meaning in others and just living every day and of being of service to others.
01:34:39.180 So part of the practice of gratitude is connecting and serving others and serving something bigger than yourself.
01:34:46.280 That makes you grateful to be on the planet.
01:34:49.380 So when I said earlier this week that we just have to at least start noticing the things that we're grateful for.
01:34:56.360 Um, and every day, once a day when you get up or, you know, twice a day, get up and go to sleep or whenever you want to write it.
01:35:02.840 But just write a list of the people and the things that you are grateful for.
01:35:07.940 Um, in, in my intent is that people will eventually start to say those things to those people and start to put into action those thoughts.
01:35:18.780 But you first have to really kind of train yourself to notice these things.
01:35:22.740 Does, is there any kind of benefit from just noticing those things, having that switch turn on?
01:35:29.520 There is, because again, it focuses us on being good members of our communities, right?
01:35:36.920 Connecting us to others.
01:35:38.520 Glenn, some years ago, Time Magazine, your favorite publication, asked me to write a couple of sentences on New Year's resolutions, which I'm not a big fan of, honestly.
01:35:48.120 But they said, no, what's your New Year news here?
01:35:50.440 And I said, what I really want to do is for every social interaction I have, add love to the world.
01:35:55.900 So I call that the Love Plus program.
01:35:57.640 So I think that's a great way to show gratitude, right?
01:36:00.780 So every time you interact with someone, are you adding love to the world?
01:36:04.060 Are you decreasing love?
01:36:05.300 Are you making that person happier or less happy?
01:36:08.000 And if you're making that person happier, you get the reflection of that.
01:36:11.560 They go, oh, wow, it was so great to talk to Glenn.
01:36:13.860 He was so nice.
01:36:15.240 I'm thinking of the waitress in the diner you spoke to.
01:36:17.800 So then you start this virtuous cycle.
01:36:19.840 And that's where that gratitude has a global impact.
01:36:23.420 You have, let me, let me switch subjects here for just, just a bit.
01:36:26.840 Just kind of slide over to something else that you do.
01:36:30.620 You're an entrepreneur.
01:36:32.060 You have, you know, founded all kinds of different things.
01:36:36.460 The immersion neuroscience, a software platform.
01:36:39.000 Um, and you have also been with some of the biggest businesses.
01:36:46.160 Um, you know, you're a Ted talks guy and you talk a lot about these experiences.
01:36:52.280 People are craving for real experiences.
01:36:57.500 Um, and so you try to put this in and teach business people how to increase happiness through
01:37:03.700 experiences.
01:37:04.800 Um, are you looking yet at, um, you know, uh, things like the, um, uh, the immersive experiences
01:37:16.700 that are all digital, uh, things like the, uh, what is the thing called a metaverse?
01:37:23.480 Are you looking into that?
01:37:24.980 Are those the same as a real physical experience?
01:37:29.700 I've stumped the good doctor.
01:37:36.100 I think we lost him.
01:37:37.520 Did we lose him?
01:37:38.980 Paul?
01:37:40.460 Dr.
01:37:41.000 Paul Zach will be, well, let's reconnect with him.
01:37:43.460 Dr.
01:37:43.960 Paul Zach, the Claremont graduate university professor, uh, author of immersion.
01:37:50.020 It is fascinating what he studies, uh, and how he applies it.
01:37:54.480 And we'll get back to him in just a minute.
01:37:56.160 First, let me tell you about rough greens.
01:37:59.280 Rough greens is just the best.
01:38:02.740 Rough greens has been making dogs healthier and happier for years.
01:38:06.140 And I can tell you with my own dog, you know, it is the real deal.
01:38:10.980 Um, Tanya and I were talking about this last night and I said, Victor and Ella, which were
01:38:15.940 the two German shepherds before, you know, how at the same age, what were they like?
01:38:21.260 And she said, don't you remember, um, Uno couldn't walk up the stairs.
01:38:26.080 Neither could Ella at, at, uh, his age.
01:38:28.600 Um, they just, they just totally changed and really slowed down.
01:38:33.700 My dog is just beginning to slow down.
01:38:37.300 Um, but he still hauls butt up the stairs.
01:38:41.200 He's really healthy.
01:38:42.660 The doctor just called back the vet with his blood test and all of it and said, it's amazing.
01:38:48.760 There's like everything.
01:38:50.020 There's not one, uh, red dot or yellow dot on any of the tests that I ran.
01:38:55.240 He is as good as a puppy.
01:38:57.500 And I really think nothing to prove this, but my feeling is because I watched him change.
01:39:02.640 Putting rough greens on his food has changed his life and extended it as well.
01:39:07.640 Rough greens, r-u-f-f-greens.com slash Beck, roughgreens.com slash Beck.
01:39:13.880 It's your first bag free.
01:39:15.520 You can also get it by calling 833-G-L-E-N-N 33, Glenn 33, or roughgreens.com slash Beck.
01:39:23.880 10 seconds, station ID.
01:39:24.980 Doc, I'm sorry, we lost you.
01:39:38.700 Dr. Paul Zak, uh, the author of Immersion, the science of the extraordinary and the source
01:39:45.540 of happiness.
01:39:46.520 Um, I was talking to you about the, uh, the metaverse and I mean, I really see a time where
01:39:53.520 a lot of people who don't have anything really going in their lives.
01:39:57.860 They don't necessarily have a job and you know, life for them is very different and they
01:40:03.360 want to escape.
01:40:04.500 They're working to pay for admission to the metaverse where they can be anything is, is
01:40:11.240 the real experience that you study for happiness and, and share with these fortune 500 companies
01:40:17.860 companies are real experiences, which I think people are, are craving.
01:40:22.600 Are they different than like what is coming in the metaverse?
01:40:28.700 Yes and no.
01:40:29.800 Uh, you know, I think our brain doesn't strongly differentiate between experiences in person
01:40:35.860 and flickering images.
01:40:37.480 Think of people crying at movies, which neurologically to me is fascinating.
01:40:41.140 Uh, you know, these are fictional stories.
01:40:43.680 You know, these are professional actors, you're aware you're in a theater and yet the end of
01:40:47.060 the movie, the boy gets the girl.
01:40:48.480 So I agree with you, Glenn.
01:40:49.620 I think there's a risk that in a metaverse with that 3d surrounds that is going to be
01:40:55.300 so compelling that we're just going to stay in our little rooms and never talk to real
01:40:59.700 humans and lose that physical contact, lose that smell, that touch, that eye contact.
01:41:05.520 What does that do long run?
01:41:07.720 I mean, it feels like we're running so many experience, uh, experiments on our children
01:41:11.860 right now, you know, with all of the stuff I know, Silicon Valley is like, no, my kids
01:41:16.200 aren't online.
01:41:16.940 My kids don't have these devices.
01:41:19.140 Um, and we don't even know what this is going to do to them.
01:41:24.740 Um, what does it do when you're trapped in a virtual route world?
01:41:29.280 A lot of the time, anything again, from, from a neurologic perspective, the brain doesn't
01:41:36.000 differentiate, we adapt right away to that new world.
01:41:39.280 So again, if it's so, uh, interesting and compelling and much more, um, you know, valuable
01:41:45.560 to us than the actual world, then we, we do have a problem.
01:41:49.160 So I think the answer is going to be a little bit, probably okay.
01:41:52.580 Like, uh, you know, anything like your food or moderation, a little bit, probably all right.
01:41:56.380 Yeah, exactly.
01:41:57.540 But don't overdo it.
01:41:58.480 Right.
01:41:58.980 Um, with you saying that our happiness, I'm, what I'm searching here for, and I'm sure,
01:42:04.060 you know, I'm, I'm searching for what is the hole that we would be a good place to start
01:42:10.200 filling in.
01:42:11.080 There's so much suicide and despair and anger in the world.
01:42:15.960 Um, I know when I was younger, I really didn't want to have any children.
01:42:20.700 I have four children.
01:42:22.260 Um, and now that I'm, you know, 58, all I can think of is I, I, 59, I'm sorry.
01:42:31.340 All I can think of now is besides when did I get so old is I wish I had eight children
01:42:38.140 because of the only thing family is the only thing that really gives true lasting happiness
01:42:44.140 with us, not having children, so many children and women now waiting so long, is that affecting
01:42:52.920 us too?
01:42:55.760 The data are not clear on that, but I think the great thing about children is they, particularly
01:43:01.180 for men, they really humanize us, right?
01:43:03.300 We really learn how to give full love to others.
01:43:06.820 So I think people without children and people whose children are out of the house can take
01:43:11.560 that same approach and apply it to our dear friends, to our elderly family members, to
01:43:17.600 our nieces and nephews.
01:43:19.520 Um, again, the brain is so adaptive and we need connection, just, uh, desperately need it.
01:43:25.160 I have about two minutes left and I just want to ask you the science of the extraordinary
01:43:28.840 is such a great, uh, opening line for your, your book immersion.
01:43:32.300 Can you, can you boil that down in 90 seconds and tell me what that is?
01:43:36.860 What does it even mean?
01:43:39.080 Yeah.
01:43:39.660 So there is a science to extraordinary experiences from, uh, movies to, um, uh, customer experiences
01:43:46.920 to social interactions.
01:43:48.960 And it's driven by these two core neurochemicals that are measurable.
01:43:52.900 And once we measure those, then we can really create extraordinary experiences.
01:43:56.800 And as you said, Glenn, basically stretch our brains to be better social creatures, to be
01:44:02.280 more emotionally connected to others, to be fully present and really build our own happiness
01:44:09.360 and flourishing.
01:44:10.440 And is this written for the average person or is this mainly a business book of people,
01:44:15.940 how to run their businesses, uh, in a much more human sort of way to give the customer
01:44:22.380 the best experience?
01:44:24.040 Yeah, it's really both.
01:44:25.400 I mean, it focuses on businesses, but if you think about anything you do in your life, arranging
01:44:29.620 your house, getting married, but we're all creating experiences.
01:44:32.960 So, uh, lots of tips on there on how to live a happier life.
01:44:36.040 And again, stretch your brain to really be fully present for those around you.
01:44:40.720 Um, I can't thank you enough for what you study and, and we did our homework.
01:44:45.180 Um, you are, I mean, you're not just only the, the, the leading, you know, source of this
01:44:50.180 stuff.
01:44:50.400 You are really, really buttoned up on it and have done so much.
01:44:54.780 Uh, we are, I am struggling to look how I can help my audience find, um, peace in an
01:45:04.240 absolute tumultuous world where everything seems upside down.
01:45:10.100 We're looking at where we're missing something to be able to weather through this and be able
01:45:16.420 to get to the other side because we all will survive.
01:45:18.980 Uh, and I'd like to talk to you again.
01:45:21.060 And if there's ever anything that comes to mind, I'd, I'd love to talk to you.
01:45:24.560 Thank you so much.
01:45:25.480 Thank you, Glenn.
01:45:26.200 I'm grateful for you.
01:45:27.560 God bless me too.
01:45:28.800 For you, uh, Dr. Paul Zach, uh, the name of the book is immersion.
01:45:34.080 We barely talked about it, but pick it up.
01:45:36.500 Um, the science behind what happens when we feel gratitude.
01:45:46.420 The Glenn Beck program.
01:45:57.540 I can tell you from personal experience that if there is one thing worse than being in
01:46:02.100 pain, uh, that you are determined to beat, it's being in pain that you're resigning yourself
01:46:06.760 to live with.
01:46:07.460 There's one thing when you're on the pursuit and you're like, I'm not going to, and then
01:46:10.120 there's another where you're like, I might be like this for the rest of my life.
01:46:14.200 That is a dark place to be.
01:46:16.640 I have been there.
01:46:18.460 Um, and I am not there anymore.
01:46:20.300 And I credit most of it to relief factor.
01:46:24.320 Um, it broke the back of whatever was going on in my body.
01:46:28.980 And my biggest problem was inflammation.
01:46:31.900 It just, the whole body was inflamed and I'm still a little puffy, but doctors tell me that's
01:46:37.520 fat, but the three week quick start might get you out of that pain.
01:46:42.140 It's a trial pack of relief factor, 100% natural.
01:46:46.000 So it's not going to zap you or anything like that.
01:46:48.600 And it works for different directions.
01:46:51.400 Unlike ibuprofen and 70% of the people who order it, go on to order more.
01:46:55.280 They find relief in relief factor.
01:46:58.140 So call 800, the number four relief, or go to relieffactor.com and get your quick start
01:47:03.660 bag.
01:47:04.440 Just try it for three weeks.
01:47:05.880 See if it doesn't work for you.
01:47:06.960 800-4-RELIEF, relieffactor.com.
01:47:10.700 Now's a great time to join Blaze TV.
01:47:12.820 You can do it at blazetv.com slash Glenn.
01:47:15.060 Use the promo code Glenn to save 10 bucks.
01:47:17.140 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:47:29.360 Are you watching 1926?
01:47:31.120 Anybody watching that?
01:47:32.700 That is one of the Yellowstone previews?
01:47:36.000 Yeah.
01:47:36.640 Prequels?
01:47:37.000 It has, what's his name, Harrison Ford and Ellen Mirren in it.
01:47:45.520 Ellen Mirren?
01:47:45.920 Ellen Mirren in it.
01:47:47.440 She is fantastic.
01:47:48.620 So is he.
01:47:49.640 I like this better than Yellowstone.
01:47:51.940 Really?
01:47:52.380 Yeah.
01:47:53.180 I mean, I think I'm the only one here in the room that is watching Yellowstone.
01:47:58.420 But I've kind of gotten a little tired of the, we're loading the cattle up.
01:48:05.100 Here's this beautiful picture of the cattle going into a truck and driving across the country.
01:48:10.300 Right.
01:48:10.840 That slow burn sort of pacing.
01:48:12.760 Yeah.
01:48:13.400 They've slowed everything down.
01:48:16.180 And, you know, it's a picnic with a country band.
01:48:20.180 And I'm like, I don't really care about any of this.
01:48:23.740 Yeah.
01:48:23.960 Um, and, but the storyline is great, but, but 1926, I think it is fantastic, just fantastic.
01:48:32.200 And there was one scene where, uh, they go into town and, uh, they see electricity for
01:48:40.140 the first time and, uh, you know, they live out in the middle of, you know, nowhere and
01:48:44.620 they go into Bozeman, Montana, which wasn't exactly a hotbed in 1926, 23, I think it is
01:48:50.180 still in 1923.
01:48:51.240 And, uh, they, um, uh, they come into town and this guy has a washing machine and a refrigerator
01:48:58.920 and everything out on the sidewalk and they're walking by and they're like, what's this?
01:49:02.500 And it's these cowboys and Helen Mirren.
01:49:05.720 And, uh, they said, well, we're putting in electricity.
01:49:09.140 All of New York has electricity.
01:49:10.680 And the cowboys are like, uh, New York back then made the same thing, you know, as it does
01:49:15.960 now.
01:49:16.220 And they're like, uh-huh.
01:49:17.700 And they said, uh, uh, so what are these things?
01:49:21.240 And he said, well, uh, you can rent these from us or buy them from us.
01:49:26.680 This is a refrigerator and explains how it works.
01:49:29.060 This is a washing machine and you can do other stuff.
01:49:32.580 And they're like, what other stuff?
01:49:35.540 And only the women there are like, well, the washing machine is pretty good.
01:49:39.580 Um, and, uh, and one guy says, so wait a minute, I have to pay you for the electricity.
01:49:49.860 Yes.
01:49:50.880 And I pay you over time for the refrigerator.
01:49:56.540 Yes.
01:49:57.040 And they talk about how, I mean, at one point Harrison Ford is shaving and, uh, with a, uh,
01:50:10.600 no, not with a straight edge, but with a Gillette old Gillette razor kind of thing.
01:50:15.020 And, um, he's shaving and his wife, Helen Mirren said, I just love watching you shave.
01:50:22.140 And then they started talking and she says, do you know that in some parts now of the
01:50:27.260 country, women are starting to shave?
01:50:29.780 And he went, what?
01:50:31.340 And she said, yeah, they're shaving under their arms and their legs.
01:50:34.540 Like we ever took a straight razor and did that.
01:50:38.400 Um, and he says, ah, that's just a passing fad.
01:50:42.240 And she said, no, you know what?
01:50:44.540 It wasn't enough for the razor blade companies to have half the population.
01:50:49.620 They needed all of it.
01:50:51.000 And she said, greed is going to destroy us.
01:50:54.880 And you watch and you're like, oh, wow.
01:50:57.520 I don't know.
01:50:58.180 That sort of greed.
01:50:59.100 I thank God we were greedy.
01:51:00.860 Thank God for the razor companies and their greed to create that trend.
01:51:04.160 But wait a minute.
01:51:04.600 But that trend, that trend came from somebody trying to sell you something.
01:51:12.440 And so it became trendy.
01:51:14.980 For instance, no, it's just right.
01:51:17.800 It's just right.
01:51:18.360 It's just right.
01:51:19.160 Ask the, ask the European, go to France and then figure out if you just think it's right
01:51:23.940 or wrong, whether it's caused by greed or not, it's the correct decision.
01:51:27.020 Okay.
01:51:27.300 I mean, I, I, I am with you.
01:51:29.460 I'm just pointing out.
01:51:30.660 I'm not sure we got there by ourself and I'm willing to be open to stuff this week.
01:51:34.520 I went to a, I can't believe I'm saying this.
01:51:37.500 I went into Dallas.
01:51:39.580 Okay.
01:51:39.900 I never go into Dallas.
01:51:41.160 There's no reason to ever go into Dallas.
01:51:44.120 No reason.
01:51:45.340 Only murders and traffic happen in inner cities.
01:51:49.300 Absolutely true.
01:51:51.660 And, oh, I'm sorry.
01:51:53.780 Murders, traffic and high taxes.
01:51:57.040 That's what happens in big cities.
01:51:58.600 And some good restaurants.
01:51:59.920 Well, that's what I found.
01:52:01.140 And, uh, and, uh, my business partner said, Hey, can you come out?
01:52:05.680 We're bringing us a bunch of people.
01:52:06.880 And I'm like, sure.
01:52:08.400 Uh, where?
01:52:08.880 And he's like, uh, well, it's in the city.
01:52:11.040 And I'm like, I'm out.
01:52:12.820 And he's like, no, you, we gotta go.
01:52:15.360 And I'm like, why did you pick it?
01:52:17.020 And he said, it's really good.
01:52:18.260 And I said, okay, so I can get a good steak.
01:52:21.400 And he said, well, it's sushi.
01:52:22.920 And I said, I hate sushi.
01:52:25.280 I hate it.
01:52:28.340 Like, it's poison.
01:52:30.520 I don't understand.
01:52:32.020 Hey, let me take an octopus from the bottom of the sea, chop its legs off, chop it up in little pieces, throw some rice on it, and hand it to you in a little bite size and say, yum.
01:52:42.640 No, thank you.
01:52:44.680 I went to this restaurant.
01:52:47.560 Sarah, do you remember the name of this restaurant that I said it was?
01:52:49.740 I believe it was Uchi is what you said it was.
01:52:51.600 Uchi.
01:52:52.180 U-C-H-I?
01:52:53.220 Oh, my gosh.
01:52:54.460 It is top three to five meals I've ever had in my life.
01:53:00.240 I mean, I'm just piling this, this, you know, raw fish, and I hate seafood, and I really hate raw seafood.
01:53:13.280 It was unbelievable.
01:53:14.720 It was like some hypnosis or something.
01:53:16.320 It was so good.
01:53:17.260 I didn't pick up the tab, so I have no idea what it costs.
01:53:23.900 I'm sure it's cheap.
01:53:24.640 But I'm guessing raw fish at a really good restaurant was perhaps a little pricey.
01:53:34.900 But if your kids don't have to go to college, you might want to try this place out.
01:53:39.600 I don't have any idea.
01:53:41.460 But you'd have to come to Dallas, and there's only murder, taxes, and what was the other thing?
01:53:46.820 Traffic.
01:53:47.400 Yeah.
01:53:47.800 Nothing good.
01:53:48.500 Nothing good.
01:53:49.020 Except good restaurants.
01:53:49.880 Yeah, but that restaurant, eventually, because of the murder rate, it's just going to have to move out of town, and it'll come out, you know, to the suburbs where real people, they're thinking, you know, hey, I could be murdered here.
01:54:03.140 They get out.
01:54:04.080 Hey, I'm paying way too much to the city, and I'm not really getting a good lifestyle in return.
01:54:09.260 They'll move out, and then the restaurant will go.
01:54:10.760 So, I'm just, I want to point that out.
01:54:13.460 One other thing, Richard Dreyfuss is my podcast this week, and it is crazy.
01:54:22.220 It is crazy.
01:54:23.860 Richard Dreyfuss, if you don't know, you know, he's the scientist on the boat with Jaws.
01:54:30.600 He has won an Oscar for Goodbye Girl, Mr. Holland's Opus.
01:54:35.800 The guy's been in a billion things.
01:54:37.640 He is a Hollywood legend, and, as he pointed out during the show, was a full-fledged communist.
01:54:48.120 I mean, I went through his family history.
01:54:51.460 It's nuts.
01:54:52.940 This guy didn't have a chance to be normal and, you know, love democracy.
01:55:01.300 Not a chance from the get-go.
01:55:03.980 However, it's not true to some degree.
01:55:07.040 He's not a communist anymore.
01:55:09.120 But he talked about how even the communists, when he was growing up, loved America, loved it.
01:55:18.740 And he's like, there isn't anything like that now.
01:55:22.020 And he's like, you know, I was a communist, but I couldn't tell you anything about it, you know, back when I was younger.
01:55:29.560 And I'm like, I don't know a lot of difference there.
01:55:32.720 And so he's on because he believes civics needs to be taught again.
01:55:38.100 And I just fell in love with this guy.
01:55:40.320 We don't agree on a lot of stuff, but I didn't, you know, I wasn't like, that's not, that's, I don't agree with.
01:55:46.780 We just had a great conversation.
01:55:48.380 I'd love to be this guy's neighbor, really.
01:55:50.740 He's very well read.
01:55:54.100 He is, I think, wrong on a few things, but who cares?
01:55:58.900 He's right on a lot of real strong principles.
01:56:02.900 And I didn't realize this until we started the podcast.
01:56:08.020 But apparently, I had a huge effect on his life.
01:56:12.760 I thought it was in a negative way, but he said it was a positive thing.
01:56:17.320 I didn't realize, but I outed him as somebody who, I was at a Ted Cruz rally, and I met him backstage.
01:56:27.160 And he's this guy walking up, and I'm like, Richard Dreyfuss, are you in the right building?
01:56:34.140 And he said, you know, I don't agree with any of the stuff that's going on.
01:56:39.760 I'm looking for any kind of answer that makes sense.
01:56:42.720 I want to hear him.
01:56:44.580 And so I, you know, I said, he was backstage.
01:56:48.140 Listen, apparently that caused some problems.
01:56:50.500 Here he is on that.
01:56:51.940 You said to me before we went on the air that I outed you.
01:56:58.020 And I immediately responded, I'm sorry.
01:57:00.880 I didn't know.
01:57:01.440 I didn't, you know.
01:57:05.640 And you said, no, that was a good thing.
01:57:07.760 That was a good thing.
01:57:12.400 In what way?
01:57:13.740 And how can we get Hollywood or other people, and people on, you know, the other side as well,
01:57:26.280 to stop with the tribalism, stop, both sides, stop it, and start to be a little more brave
01:57:39.300 to say, yeah, that's who I am.
01:57:41.980 Yeah.
01:57:44.320 Did you get pushback when I said?
01:57:46.500 Oh, my gosh.
01:57:47.480 I'm so sorry, Richard.
01:57:48.840 I'm so sorry.
01:57:49.380 No, it was great, because now I had a kind of place in my universe.
01:57:56.600 I had been a liberal.
01:58:01.460 I had been a communist when I was younger.
01:58:05.200 And if you had asked me what communism was, I could not have told you, as I think is true now.
01:58:11.580 Yeah.
01:58:11.780 We wouldn't know how to describe it.
01:58:16.860 I knew that I was changing, and I knew that I was changing for the better, the clearer, the above, the nicer.
01:58:31.120 I knew that.
01:58:33.100 I could feel it.
01:58:34.780 And I began to see the phrases that indicated that that writer was a duck, was a loser.
01:58:44.340 And I found them everywhere, on the left and on the right.
01:58:50.240 And it was easy for me to be anti-right, because my whole community was anti-right.
01:58:58.040 But I began to move, really, until I became a celebrity, and I joined Common Cause.
01:59:07.480 Do you remember what Common Cause was?
01:59:09.400 It was an institution that was by John Gardner, who worked for both Republicans and Democrats.
01:59:20.920 And he wanted to create an institution for those people who were neither Republican or Democrat, or both, and could criticize both.
01:59:33.640 Yes.
01:59:33.780 So I joined that when I became famous, and I went to Washington, and immediately said, where are the Republicans?
01:59:45.400 And, no, they didn't talk about that.
01:59:49.240 And what had happened was that it had become an adjunct to the Democratic Party.
01:59:54.180 Then I also joined the Constitution Center, and I spent 10 years on the Constitution Center board saying, where is the honest history instead of the safe history?
02:00:11.780 And they were really the right-wing version of Common Cause.
02:00:19.080 And they finally found a way to kick me out.
02:00:24.180 And that's true, I mean.
02:00:27.060 So he goes on, he talks about how we need to educate our kids about America.
02:00:34.220 He deeply loves America.
02:00:36.520 We had an argument about Thomas Jefferson and everything else, but he deeply loves this country.
02:00:42.180 And you won't agree with everything he says, but you will agree on the attitude that if he is convinced that we're at the end, unless people on both sides put their swords and shields down and start talking to one another about basic principles, which I'm all about.
02:01:07.060 We agree, we're 100% in lockstep on that.
02:01:11.520 We disagree on a lot of other things.
02:01:13.320 This is something that you can share with liberal friends.
02:01:16.060 This is something that you should watch.
02:01:18.560 It is, I think it's a good demonstration of sitting down with somebody that you don't agree on, on some pretty big things.
02:01:24.560 But you have, you know what time it is, and you both know the Bill of Rights is the solution.
02:01:33.560 Richard Dreyfuss, don't miss this.
02:01:35.440 It's on the blaze now.
02:01:36.420 You can get it tomorrow, wherever you get your podcasts.
02:01:39.520 If you're somebody who considers yourself fiscally responsible, or if you'd like to be fiscally responsible, time to wake up and smell the insanity, because it is everywhere.
02:01:52.220 You see yesterday, Bitcoin went back up to $18,000, gold was up.
02:01:56.500 It's up over $19,000 today.
02:01:57.820 Yeah, and that had everything to do with the dollar.
02:02:01.080 And that is going to happen.
02:02:02.940 It's going to fluctuate back and forth, back and forth, and while they try to convince you that everything is fine.
02:02:07.120 But eventually, it is going away.
02:02:09.740 The dollar will become worthless.
02:02:11.920 So, what are you doing with your dollars?
02:02:14.440 If you're in the bank and you're losing, what, 7% just in inflation, you compound that over a few years.
02:02:22.340 You've lost a lot of money.
02:02:24.180 Goldline has an awesome special this week for every tube of the quarter-ounce Mayflower gold commemoratives.
02:02:30.420 That's a quarter ounce of solid gold.
02:02:32.240 You'll receive 100 of the same Mayflower copper rounds at no additional cost.
02:02:37.120 Don't wait.
02:02:38.180 These are selling out.
02:02:39.480 They are really, really beautiful.
02:02:42.620 And they commemorate the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower.
02:02:47.540 I designed them.
02:02:48.820 They are commemorative coins.
02:02:50.160 They're really beautiful.
02:02:51.320 And you can use them because they're solid gold.
02:02:54.380 866-GOLD-LINE.
02:02:55.740 By the way, they have them in silver as well.
02:02:57.640 Ask them.
02:02:58.440 866-GOLD-LINE or goldline.com.
02:03:01.460 The Glenn Beck Program.
02:03:05.300 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
02:03:22.600 Well, let's also end the week the way we started.
02:03:25.200 Monday, we find out that there's a study that came out in November that Richard Trumka was talking about on some show over the weekend about gas stoves being dangerous for asthma for our kids.
02:03:37.400 And then we find out that Governor Hochul the next day is introducing legislation, and Washington State has already nixed it in their, I don't know, their construction code.
02:03:49.420 So, in Washington State, you're not building anything with a gas stove.
02:03:54.080 And they did it without passing it or doing anything.
02:03:56.480 They just did it in committee.
02:03:58.660 Yeah.
02:03:58.920 And now even one of the authors of the study is saying what's clear from the study, that it does not assume or estimate a causal relationship between childhood asthma and natural gas stoves.
02:04:08.200 The people who came up with the study are saying there's some correlation there, but we do not see causation there.
02:04:14.220 I'm telling you, this is not a mistake or an error.
02:04:17.540 These, Washington State did this back in November or December.
02:04:23.000 I mean, this is a path that they are taking to limit, again, your access to energy.
02:04:31.500 And they can say that's a conspiracy theory all they want.
02:04:34.680 They have no credibility.
