Welcome to the program. I want to talk to you about American Giant. American Giant is a great,
00:00:04.600
great company. They're a company that just doesn't think about what they can do. They think about
00:00:09.760
what they should do, and then they do it. When you buy American clothing, you're investing in
00:00:14.880
American manufacturing and American workers. You're not just buying clothes. In other words,
00:00:19.860
you're investing in our country and in our communities and in fellow Americans. We need
00:00:25.980
to get back that independent spirit of American manufacturing, and American Giant is doing
00:00:30.420
their part. All of their clothing is 100% American. The cotton, the milling, the cutting, the sewing,
00:00:36.140
the ink, everything is American. There's an American Giant in all of us. Go to American-Giant.com

00:00:54.460
Pullover. Quarter zip. Yeah, it's a... Right? It's that American...
00:00:58.860
It's American-Giant. Yeah. American-Giant.com slash Glenn. It's fantastic. Makes me even look
00:01:04.680

Glenn Benchman. Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Benchman program.
00:01:55.120
Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Benchman program. I am sick and tired of hearing what we
00:02:03.600
cannot do. I'm sorry about this bridge collapse. It's an amazing story. It's an amazing hero story
00:02:10.300
of the cops. Yeah, let's make sure we get rid of those cops. A hero story where they saved, I don't
00:02:16.300
know how many countless lives by, you know, being there and doing exactly the right thing quickly.
00:02:23.620
But I'm really tired of hearing about how long this is going to take us before we survive and how bad
00:02:29.480
it's going to be because it's going to be so long. Let's start there in 60 seconds. Stand by.
00:02:36.280
Let me tell you about our economy. I mean, hindsight can be 20-20 and that's good. Making mistakes and
00:02:42.700
learning from them is, you know, one of the best ways we grow as people. But sometimes foresight is the
00:02:48.040
way to go. That's what I try to do here with you. I try to help you think about what's coming over the
00:02:54.700
horizon, not just understand the news of the day, but what that means for the news of tomorrow. Prepare
00:03:01.280
yourself and your family for economic insanity. We have a guy on a little later who is the is I believe he's the
00:03:09.880
writer of that warning from Canada that came out yesterday. We talked about where he said, you know,
00:03:15.800
the hopelessness of the Canadian future. People are going to riot and start going against their
00:03:23.580
government once they find out what's really coming. That's a little frightening. We're going to talk to
00:03:29.100
him, see exactly what that meant. But I think it's coming here as well. I would really urge you,
00:03:36.880
please, to go to Lear Capital and get their wealth protection guide. Their wealth protection guide,
00:03:43.840
you're not going to sell you anything. They're not going to pressure you on anything. They just want
00:03:48.060
you to have this. You look at it. You've got any money saved in 401ks or IRAs or anything else.
00:03:56.260
Please consider gold or silver, physical gold or silver. Call right now, 800-957-GOLD.
00:04:03.820
They'll credit your account $250 towards your purchase if you decide to buy anything.
00:04:08.720
Just because you're a listener of mine, call 800-957-GOLD. 800-957-GOLD.
00:04:19.100
All right, I want to give you this story that I read today, the immediate upshot for Americans on
00:04:26.200
this bridge collapse. If you're waiting for a new car to come in from overseas, prepare to wait longer.
00:04:31.160
The Port of Baltimore stands as the nation's leading import-export site for cars and light trucks.
00:04:37.740
It's also the leading nexus for sugar and gypsum, which is used in fertilizer, drywall, and plaster.
00:04:45.760
A record 52.3 million tons of foreign cargo was transported through Baltimore just last year.
00:04:52.120
The bustling port is cut off now after the 1.6-mile bridge crumbled and fell into the river early
00:04:59.180
Tuesday, blocking the only shipping lane into the port. The port is one of the busiest in the U.S.
00:05:04.860
and saw a record of 52.1 million tons of foreign cargo transported in 2023.
00:05:11.340
The officials have said the timeline for rebuilding the bridge is, quote, years.
00:05:16.780
We're going to do everything we can to protect those jobs and help those workers, the president said
00:05:20.840
yesterday, the Port of Baltimore creates more than 15,300 jobs, with 140,000 jobs linked to the activity
00:05:30.760
at the port. This is a major disaster and will create significant problems on the East Coast
00:05:38.580
for U.S. importers and exporters. The bridge collapse will mean that for the time being,
00:05:44.320
it will not be possible to get to the container terminals or a range of the other port terminals
00:05:50.620
in Baltimore. The Maryland Secretary of Transportation told reporters Tuesday that vessel traffic in and
00:05:57.140
out of the Port of Baltimore would be suspended until further notice, but noted the port is still
00:06:02.480
open to trucks. So we still have trucks going in. As soon as we clear the bridge, we can get vessels in,
00:06:09.860
but it's going to be a major hassle for over time for cars, etc., etc. An expert on property damage
00:06:18.180
cases in the shipping industry told the New York Post that the collapse will have a major impact
00:06:23.600
on shipping and traffic routes in the East Coast for the foreseeable future. It's not, quote,
00:06:29.900
it's not going to get fixed anytime soon. It's going to take a lot longer than anyone expects.
00:06:37.660
This is going to be a major problem for the Northeast. I'm sick of this. I am absolutely sick
00:06:44.920
to death of all of these stories that say things like that.
00:06:51.260
Have we forgotten who we are? Have we forgotten what we've done?
00:06:56.480
Let me just take you on a little journey here for the American spirit.
00:07:00.260
A spirit so potent and so vibrant that it has scaled towering mountains. Mountains nobody thought
00:07:08.120
they could cross. Constructed marvels of engineering. Have you ever been to the Hoover Dam?
00:07:15.220
We erected buildings that scraped the sky. The skyscraper was invented here.
00:07:21.720
Here we are on the threshold of tomorrow. None of us know what is happening tomorrow. None of us.
00:07:33.000
But I'm getting the impression that we've been so beaten down that
00:07:36.320
that we believe we're not going to make it tomorrow.
00:07:50.220
Our history, if you just look through it briefly, you will see a group of people that never take
00:08:09.000

00:46:20.940
in america today and quite honestly the entire western world
00:46:50.200
they're not a human having a spiritual experience
01:08:23.540
thinker society was smuggled out of iraq during
01:08:25.900
saddam hussein's pogroms against the jews it was
01:08:28.840
smuggled out entire rubber now why am i showing
01:08:32.080
you a torus scroll jesus said that all of the old
01:08:57.920
cross glenn he was supposed to vanquish us from
01:09:04.460
said that when messiah comes he'll kill the roman
01:09:11.900
a defiled temple but when jesus went to the cross
01:09:14.580
they thought he had lost they thought the devil had won
01:09:18.120
right so right they go home to emmaus emmaus is seven miles southwest of the
01:09:22.500
modern city of jerusalem and glenn in my bible study book body of
01:09:26.540
proof i took two drones four cameras to jerusalem we filmed
01:09:30.100
just days before the hummus attack little did we know
01:09:33.180
i'm on the actual emmaus road and glenn you know this because you actually
01:09:36.720
know and teach history the romans knew how to build roads and
01:09:40.300
the curbing is still there from the road to emmaus and cleopas and his wife
01:09:44.240
mary and here's what's really beautiful about it
01:09:46.980
they've given up they've left the faith they thought jesus gave them no hope
01:09:51.480
because he died on a cross and glenn here's what's cool about it
01:09:54.140
they begin walking in a stranger who they don't recognize begins walking with
01:09:58.120
them and in fact they invite this stranger into their home in emmaus when
01:10:02.080
they reach emmaus seven miles later and what i love about luke by the way is
01:10:05.680
he enjoyed eating did you know in the gospel of luke which is one of the four
01:10:08.900
gospels there's 13 meal scenes glenn so luke will be a great guy to hang out
01:10:13.280
with he's a man after my own yeah he's a man after my own appetite here's the
01:10:17.960
beauty and i want you to see the ark it was during uh the eye it was during the
01:10:22.740
first meal scene in genesis that sin entered the world do you remember eve ate
01:10:27.040
the apple yes she was tempted and yet it's in this new meal scene in the new
01:10:31.840
creation that their eyes are opened and the stranger who's been walking with them
01:10:35.180
on the road to emmaus glenn is none other than jesus christ resurrected and there's
01:10:40.340
this verse i would include encourage your audience to look up luke 24 verse 27 it
01:10:46.080
says that jesus began with moses so that's the first five books that's why i brought
01:10:51.120
my taurus scroll right the prophets and the writing so in the hebrew bible that
01:10:55.820
would be genesis to chronicles and he said not just a couple of verses they
01:11:00.300
all point to me and here's what happens their dejection is turned to unending
01:11:05.940
hope in luke 24 32 it says we're not our hearts burning within us as he opened the
01:11:12.360
truth of the scripture to us and you know what we need our hearts to burn with hope
01:11:16.460
today don't we glenn and so jesus called it that's the hashtag on the third day
01:11:20.160
jesus predict a lot of the skeptics out there glenn they say well jesus didn't
01:11:24.220
really think he was god people foisted that on him later no when you study mark
01:11:28.260
8 31 mark 9 31 mark 10 33 and 34 jesus is constantly predicting his death by roman
01:11:35.540
crucifixion and on the third day he would rise from the dead hosea 6 2 and 3
01:11:40.720
you know i thought of him this week you know palm sunday he comes in on a donkey
01:11:46.460
um and he celebrated and he knows he's fulfilling scripture and i thought
01:11:53.920
i i i don't think i don't think i would be happy going into jerusalem if i knew what was going to
01:12:02.540
happen in just a few days and it was a massacre the execution of of of crucifixion is beyond anyone's
01:12:12.380
understanding of how horrible it is and yet he was fulfilling prophecy knowing what was going to
01:12:18.800
happen in just a few days and he was still hopeful i mean that that is really remarkable and glenn
01:12:23.800
that's how much he loved you romans 5a but god demonstrated and keeps demonstrating his love for
01:12:30.820
you and me for the everyone watching right now man there's a lot of despair out there if you need a
01:12:35.620
reminder god loves you you need to look one place in one place only the empty tomb after you look at the
01:12:40.520
cross god demonstrated his love for you and me and that while we were sinners glenn while we were
01:12:45.940
alcoholics while we hated god he still loved us and so that's the beauty of it point number three
01:12:51.280
body of proof is jesus demonstrated resurrection power glenn i went to bethany it's i don't call it
01:12:56.800
palestine ever we should get into that at some point this week of why i never called israel palestine
01:13:01.460
that's terrible uh but i went into what moderns call uh west bank i call it judea and samaria i filmed
01:13:07.500
in the very tomb of lazarus this is another story holy cow i went down there and glenn you would have
01:13:13.000
loved it i i was sweating by the way i was on a weight loss program i could barely fit in the tomb
01:13:18.220
i had to get on all fours and i called out there were little tombs yeah we were smaller people and
01:13:24.520
i called out i said lazarus come forth i just wanted to know what it sounded like in the tomb we filmed it
01:13:30.360
all and here's the point jesus not only predicted his death and resurrection he demonstrated resurrection
01:13:35.380
power mark five jairus's daughter raised from the dead luke seven widow of nain's son raised from
01:13:41.040
the dead and then john 11 the stupendous miracle lazarus's body is a ripe stinking course he raises
01:13:46.600
it from the dead and john 11 said they still didn't believe and glenn that's what we have to help
01:13:51.240
educate your audience some evidence will never be enough evidence for some people can we just talk
01:13:56.420
about that for a minute i mean jesus christ could appear to you right now but you've already closed your
01:14:00.920
heart to him and when you close your heart to jesus you close your heart to hope because hope
01:14:06.180
is found in nowhere else than the resurrected christ i will tell you this is why dictators and everybody
01:14:12.220
else the first thing they take on is christianity they take on religion eliminate it to destroy the
01:14:18.120
yeah they've got to destroy religion because that is the source it's the only reason why i do what i do
01:14:26.100
it's the only reason why i get up every day i got up this morning and i'm like oh jeez i don't want
01:14:30.420
to read the show prep today right and you know what i do because i know he lives i know he saved me
01:14:37.740
that's right and i know i'm forever in his debt never able to repay it but jeez this is the least i can
01:14:44.120
do if if he asks me to stand up and testify of him that's the least i can do so number five glenn body
01:14:51.220
of proof you wanted me to get through them all the source is written and archaeological overwhelmingly
01:14:55.900
confirm the resurrection narratives embedded in the gospels i'm going to quote now atheists i like
01:15:01.040
to quote atheist scholars because we have some skeptics that for some reason that holds more
01:15:05.520
weight i have the same credentials they do but i'm not an atheist so let me quote the atheist
01:15:09.680
jody magnus university of north carolina archaeologist she is an a specialist in jewish burial traditions
01:15:16.540
she says the resurrection narratives embedded in the gospels are exactly right the entire juridical
01:15:22.240
procedure is what we understand glenn here's the cool part in the mishnah that's the rabbinic
01:15:26.300
tradition if you if you were a part of the sanhedrin uh glenn if you and i were part of the 70 ruling
01:15:31.620
priest in jerusalem in the time of jesus and we condemn someone to die it was on you and me to be
01:15:36.840
responsible for the burial of the criminal we killed what do we read in nathie mark luke and john
01:15:43.020
jose excuse me joseph of arimathea nicodemus these are members of the sanhedrin they ask pilot for the
01:15:51.140
body of jesus why they're going to bury him not honorably but properly all of that smacks of
01:15:57.840
authenticity point number six body of proof glenn i love this one the best because you know as a dad
01:16:03.180
of triplets and four sons i can tell you something abel rider jackson justin none of them think the
01:16:10.120
other one is the son of god okay i can tell you that right now as a dad of boys i don't know glenn do
01:16:15.560
you have any brothers i don't know if if you have a brother what would it take for you to believe
01:16:20.160
your brother was the son of god i have to ask these kind of critical questions and glenn when i was
01:16:26.780
defending my thesis william telford who was studied who who is a gospel of mark scholar but does not
01:16:33.860
believe in the resurrection he looks at me when i'm defending my thesis in oxford and viva voce half
01:16:39.320
the words he's using is in latin and he said jeremiah i have one question as we begin had a big
01:16:43.980
british bro tie on he said do you actually believe that jesus rose from the grave or is that just
01:16:50.760
imaginative storytelling that was the first question he asked me and again in the uk you get a phd it's
01:16:57.160
pass fail you fail you can never do a phd again and you can't that subject i said professor telford
01:17:01.820
david hume said wise men choose rob probabilities the evidence leads me to believe with all my heart
01:17:07.720
jesus rose from the grave physically bodily on ad 58 on april 5th ad 33 i believe it with all my heart
01:17:14.120
he said i don't see it that way let's start your viva he later passed it with commendation i published
01:17:21.560
in the jew in the german system you're not really called a doctor until you publish your monograph and
01:17:26.500
a academic serial he went on and recommended it for publication so here's number six a body of proof
01:17:32.100
how do you explain the conversion of james the brother of jesus i love that you're conversing in
01:17:38.540
josephus uh glenn i love that you know history i've learned history from you glenn i don't want to date
01:17:44.700
you or me but for a while i loved i watched you back in the day on the chalkboards and learn from you
01:17:49.680
thank you and john 7 verse 5 said not even jesus brothers believed on him in mark 6 did you know
01:17:57.120
jesus is called a bastard in the gospels they thought he's an illegitimate child
01:18:01.180
um in mark 3 his his family thinks he's a nut job so i want to ask your our audience because i'm
01:18:07.680
sure many of them have not yet become christians what would it take for you to die believing your
01:18:13.580
brother was not only the son of god but had come back from the dead james didn't believe it either
01:18:19.040
and glenn i like to think in my mind's eye you know he was a builder jesus has been massacred on
01:18:24.020
the cross he's a charlatan james thinks and first corinthians back to that power passage verse
01:18:29.740
7 and 8 says and he appeared to james and in my mind's eye i'm just speculating right now glenn but
01:18:35.800
i'm thinking that james is working on a project and brother jesus appears to him as the resurrected
01:18:40.460
christ and he's like bro check out my side check out my hands they got me i told you you you owe me
01:18:49.080
that money yeah i got you but here's what josephus and again i'm not quoting the bible right now i'm
01:18:55.340
quoting flavius josephus in ad 62 james is stoned to death glenn believing his brother is the messiah
01:19:03.960
the son of god how do you explain that how do we explain that all right hang on just a second we're
01:19:10.860

jeremiah johnston he is the author of body of proof uh pad and uh presswood baptist church
01:20:36.300
apologetics pastor he has just written this book body of proof that in it he has one of the things
01:20:42.960
seven reasons why uh you can you can prove that uh that christ the story and the resurrection is true
01:20:51.960
the last one i think is very funny in some ways go ahead glenn i first presented this at an academic
01:20:58.320
conference this is an original contribution to knowledge glenn if you and i wanted to invent a new
01:21:03.600
religion that would have been marketable in a winning proclamation in the first century we never
01:21:08.540
would have invented christianity everything about the christian message offends someone in fact if you
01:21:15.460
and i and so the title in my chapter body of proof is if the disciples invented the story of jesus death
01:21:21.260
and resurrection they did a terrible job you would have never invented it that way no one believed in a
01:21:26.620
body a ripe stinking corpse coming back to life so predominant was the socratic notion of the
01:21:34.140
immortality of the soul the platonic notion of the immortality of the soul rather the body was ugly
01:21:38.780
wanted to get rid of it glenn women as you know were at a great disadvantage in the first century
01:21:44.380
world in fact we have a love letter papyrus oxyrhynchus 744 a guy writes a beautiful love letter 50 years
01:21:50.140
before jesus was born to his wife alice and oxyrhynchus he said hey if it's a boy keep it and then let me
01:21:54.840
read it to you in greek um if it's a girl throw it in the trash can but who does christianity choose
01:22:04.480
and by the way no one would have batted an eye but it's in mark 9 that jesus said wait a minute the
01:22:09.340
kingdom of god is like children bring the children to me jesus brought humanity back to women and
01:22:15.220
children and the resurrection is defended by women we never would have invented it that way if we were
01:22:21.500
trying to come up with a no and you would have taken the messiah and and nailed him to a tree
01:22:26.240
that's right the worst humiliation you could come up with okay you believe in the shroud yes or no
01:22:32.520
yes i do completely it's no hoax and listen i was a skeptic i gotta tell you i feel the same
01:22:40.960
way and i never did believe it wow but i do now tomorrow we're going to take on the holy shroud
01:22:47.380
of turin the glenn beck program that story really pisses me off because what they should have said is
01:22:53.940
hey everybody in the newsroom grow up grow up we don't all have to agree with each other or just hit
01:23:00.580
them with some tear gas probably not the best answer but it is the best answer the burner launcher would be
01:23:05.320
helpful in many circumstances it is uh we actually you had mentioned and lied about a bunch of our
01:23:10.740
when we were testing uh the burner launcher at your house and you've told many stories about that
01:23:15.420
one thing i think is interesting that we haven't talked about glenn with the burner is one of them
01:23:19.780
one of the biggest you know things preventing people from practicing and getting in good practice with
01:23:25.440
their firearm is the ammunition with the burner you actually can reuse it over and over and over and
01:23:30.780
over again i know um which saves you so much money yeah especially if you hit the target like yours
01:23:37.380
went way past the target and we had to look for it all day but mine just pink it and then just drops
01:23:43.400
right in front of the target so it's uh it's good anyway birna get a birna launcher for yourself now
01:24:18.300
welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment this is the glenn beck program
01:24:36.760
you know i've learned a lot by just looking at what the government seems to be preparing
01:24:47.900
for you can you can see the future or the future that they are expecting by looking at how they're
01:24:57.700
preparing and what they're preparing for i told you yesterday that there was a uh a troubling
01:25:04.740
report out from the royal canadian mounted police uh on the things that the canada and their police
01:25:12.780
force are trying to start to prepare for uh it's troubling because it talks about people rising up
01:25:21.560
out of hopelessness out of their situation well the guy who broke this story uh is uh from canada
01:25:28.820
obviously his name is tristan hopper and he is on the phone with us now to explain what does this mean
01:25:35.940
how seriously should we take this and and and how serious is the police and and uh people like trudeau
01:25:44.700
taking this are they taking it seriously is it something we should all really kind of batten down the
01:25:50.260
hatches for we talk to him in 60 seconds stand by
01:25:54.640
first our sponsor this half hour is american financing everything everything is still really
01:26:01.960
expensive right now and by the time you fill up your car and buy your groceries there's not much
01:26:06.220
left so what do you do well a lot of people are just swiping their credit card because they're trapped
01:26:11.240
and then they trap themselves into high interest debt but what choice do you have at this point
01:26:17.080
then after they start to see your interest rate going up 20 25 30 35 you as a homeowner you're looking
01:26:26.120
and i think i'm going to lose my house please i want you to call american financing or go to their
01:26:32.480
website americanfinancing.net they don't ever charge any upfront or hidden fees it's just one of the many
01:26:38.420
reasons why they have you know like 8 000 great five-star google reviews i've been a fan of american
01:26:45.260
financing for a very very long time because they don't work for the banks they work for you
01:26:49.180
they may be able to save you from a catastrophic ending if you have high interest credit card debt
01:26:55.700
you could save up to 820 every month that is the average of what a listener last year who called
01:27:03.740
in all of the listeners called in the average was about ten thousand dollars a year in savings
01:27:08.760
by talking to american financing american financing at 800-906-2440 americanfinancing.net
01:27:17.600
nmls 182334 nmlsconsumeraccess.org apr for rates in the five starts at 6.799 percent for
01:27:23.620
well-qualified borrowers call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms
01:27:28.200
the whole of government five-year trends 2023 it was a report that was forecasting uh exercise based
01:27:39.360
on uh based on a review of open source articles and reports spokesperson uh has said it was undertaken
01:27:45.980
to provide federal policing managers with insight into anticipated changes in canada's political
01:27:52.980
economic social technological environmental and legal circumstances aiding in safeguarding canada
01:28:01.040
tristan hopper is a reporter and columnist for the national post uh and he is he is all on top of this
01:28:09.960
uh and can tell us the meaning behind it uh if if anything significant tristan welcome to the
01:28:16.200
program uh thank you i didn't break the story i shamelessly stole the idea from someone else but i
01:28:21.720
think i wrote it better okay you what well you're the story that i found and so you know that's the
01:28:28.400
same um to me listen uh steal from me you've stolen twice the thing i that i want to know is when i read
01:28:35.620
the story um it it talked about how hopelessness is going to be uh a part of canadian's life in the
01:28:47.380
coming years and that yeah people aren't prepared why i wrote about it so the fact that the report
01:28:53.040
exists isn't surprising i mean the job of the police correct at least at the federal level i mean
01:28:57.800
the rcmp i mean they do street level policing but they also sort of function of canada's fbi so think
01:29:03.340
of this as an fbi report um saying oh here's what the next five years are going to look like
01:29:07.660
so yeah police should be sitting around saying well that's gonna what's gonna bite us in the butt in
01:29:11.800
the next five years so i guess what what was interesting was if you have a security analyst
01:29:17.140
who's only worrying about security they're going to look at canada and say oh yeah most of your
01:29:23.320
young people can't afford houses that's not good uh you know that that could be a real problem
01:29:27.960
uh in the future um so this is sort of one of the first times i've seen acknowledged uh within an
01:29:34.600
organ of the canadian federal government saying oh yeah things are not good they haven't been good
01:29:38.580
for a while and they're set to get worse so obviously um if you ask the political did trudeau
01:29:44.200
government um government of prime minister justin trudeau they're going to say no no don't worry
01:29:48.460
you things are going to turn around but uh i mean according to the professionals within our
01:29:52.360
security state they're saying uh no no we we see none of this getting better and when you have
01:29:58.180
increasing numbers of young people who have no prospects of obtaining the life that their parents
01:30:03.620
lived um you know it's fine now but that can quickly devolve into something very ugly
01:30:09.300
yeah this is let me just quote you the warning the federal government received that canada may
01:30:18.040
descend into civil unrest once citizens realize the hopelessness of their economic situation
01:30:23.860
the coming period quoting the report the coming period of recession will accelerate the decline in
01:30:30.520
living standards that the younger generations have already witnessed compared to earlier generations
01:30:36.520
yeah for example many canadians under 35 they got just like for many canadians under 35 they are
01:30:43.420
unlikely ever to be able to buy a place to live ever right and i should point out this is sort of a
01:30:51.260
for a u.s audience this sort of a preview of coming attractions so in affordability oh yeah and just
01:30:57.580
general uh life standards canada is sort of ahead of the curve on those being worse so our per capita
01:31:02.900
gdp has been while the u.s has actually been pretty good the last 10 years ours has been steadily
01:31:09.040
trending downwards and then affordability um i know houses are expensive um as for americans but
01:31:15.280
in our major centers um if you earn anything close to a normal income so in toronto vancouver even in
01:31:22.060
sort of secondary cities like edmonton or calgary um yeah there are no circumstances whatsoever under
01:31:28.660
which you can afford even a basic home um so and that's really accelerated over the last 10 years
01:31:35.180
so yeah you have a lot of people who have good jobs their wife has a good job um they've saved
01:31:40.420
their money and yeah real estate's gone up a thousand percent so there's there's no way they
01:31:45.720
can envision a future where they're not renting for the rest of their lives and it's it's not just that
01:31:51.900
here in america i mean uh i think it was state farm just said that to californians we're out um we're
01:31:59.940
not going to we're going to cut i think it was 70 maybe 70 000 customers um because they said they
01:32:06.860
just you know they've raised it up 80 percent for the people they did keep and then just cut a bunch
01:32:13.560
of other people because they said they can't afford to replace the homes in in california i mean you can't
01:32:20.680
take an 80 percent increase on home insurance a 30 percent rise in electricity costs uh you know a 30
01:32:29.120
percent rise in in in uh water and then a 25 percent rise in groceries and expect this to last
01:32:36.360
it just can't that that's exactly right so yeah that that has been happening um for quite some time
01:32:42.920
and it's been so one one trend that is showing up in canada that maybe is a bit different than the u.s
01:32:48.080
is that according to poll numbers our population is getting really conservative um particularly our
01:32:55.080
young people so probably for the first time in my lifetime and one of the first times you know
01:32:59.560
in any western democracy um we are having a plurality of young people actually favoring the
01:33:05.680
conservative party of canada and you're seeing all of these demographics never thought about voting
01:33:09.500
conservative in their entire life um you know women or urban uh you know i mentioned young people
01:33:16.980
who are saying oh yeah yeah 55 percent i'm voting conservative next election so there's never been
01:33:21.580
anything like it so is that both men and women uh when it comes to uh the youth because we're seeing
01:33:30.200
that our women are going our young women are going uh just full-on woke leftist and the boys and the men
01:33:38.900
young men are going hard conservative that was initially so this time last year that was what the trend
01:33:46.300
was showing this was showing uh young men were going yeah real conservative but however uh that
01:33:51.440
sort of changed so i wrote about that a couple months ago i was saying you know women initially
01:33:55.060
weren't on with this sort of what we would call the blue wave the colors are swapped but you know
01:33:59.640
this blue wave happening um in canada but uh you can only sort of hold out those options for so long
01:34:06.640
until you realize oh i i pay three thousand dollars a month for a 700 square foot apartment and my car
01:34:12.700
has been stolen three times this month so um yeah i guess people are being mugged by reality at a
01:34:17.820
lightning pace so one of the things that's in this report um it says the trends in both canada and
01:34:24.760
abroad um will have a significant effect on the canadian government and rmc uh rcmp um canadians
01:34:34.380
uh are becoming increasingly disillusioned with their government which authors mostly chalk up to
01:34:41.160
misinformation conspiracy theories and paranoia law enforcement should expect continuing social and
01:34:48.440
political polarization fueled by the misinformation campaigns and an increasing mistrust for all
01:34:54.120
democratic institutions this is terrifying to me because they're they don't even recognize that
01:35:01.700
the trust that we have all had for our institutions has been eroding for a long time because they
01:35:08.700
continue to lie to us and they're on a different path than the people are uh yeah so this did stand
01:35:17.000
out to me basically whenever i see the word misinformation or disinformation it's usually
01:35:22.080
front-loading a whole bunch of stuff that's not true um so yeah to see this in the report i guess
01:35:27.860
the ironic part that i took out of the report um if you can find it funny is that yeah a lot of the
01:35:34.000
section where they're getting into you know paranoid populism and conspiracy theory so this is not a
01:35:38.020
report that was supposed to be made public i got it thanks to right uh matt malone he's a professor
01:35:42.320
out of thompson rivers university he just files access to information right um to get secret
01:35:47.320
government reports and just release them and see what happens um so in this section we're saying
01:35:52.400
people don't trust the government anymore and conspiracy theories most of that is blacked out
01:35:56.480
um so yeah there's a section titled paranoid populism and it's saying oh people are paranoid and
01:36:02.380
popular i don't know why black out there so and then this whole section is blacked out so there is one
01:36:07.220
giant uh security risk um that takes up several pages that's sort of the one they lead with
01:36:12.920
that whole thing is blacked out so who knows what that i'm gonna guess it's something we don't even
01:36:17.360
know what that one is yes so wow we we've just got people are broke and then it gets into um most of
01:36:27.220
the country is catching fire every summer um you know commodity risk so you know it's it's it's
01:36:33.220
it's harder to get reliable all the all the sort of normal things but the thing that is unusual is
01:36:39.180
a government agency saying everybody's broke and that usually makes for angry people
01:36:43.260
this is i mean i just find it a little terrifying what what is the they mentioned the increasing
01:36:50.540
pressure to cede arctic territory is that to china or russia language yeah so we our military is not
01:36:58.540
in great shape lately and we have a lot of territory that isn't very strong we don't i mean
01:37:03.880
you the americans you got a fair amount of stuff up in alaska i wouldn't screw with anyone in alaska
01:37:09.520
but we don't even have any sort of permanent military bases up in the arctic so that kind
01:37:14.640
of language usually we use the word arctic sovereignty like which we're worried about russia
01:37:19.580
or denmark or someone taking right here put in that case that's the most dire language i've ever heard
01:37:25.380
an arctic uh a government report saying oh yeah pressure to cede territory like we've seen but
01:37:31.660
from whom they can take our stuff what are we going to do
01:37:34.380
so is it russia are they specifically because i have not heard that from any i mean i know that
01:37:42.540
russia has subs up there and they're trying to you know claim that they own it um but is that what
01:37:47.460
they're talking about or is there additional stuff usually i mean as as you sort of lose ice up there
01:37:54.380
there's a whole bunch of you know there's oil there's shipping routes it's becoming valuable
01:37:58.280
um so this is something i used to work i used to work in the north i used to work at a magazine about
01:38:03.160
20 years ago so this was a big deal back then saying you know as soon as this it was easy when
01:38:08.080
it was just all frozen and sir john franklin's corpse you didn't have to worry about anybody taking
01:38:11.680
it um but yeah um we haven't really increased um our military capacity in the north so as there's
01:38:19.520
interesting stuff up there who knows you could get china russia just move in and say oh we're
01:38:24.860
taking this island it's uh nobody's using it um there's very little we can do about that
01:38:29.360
can i ask you tristan being a canadian and yet you're so close to uh america i think you're up
01:38:37.240
in bc are you most of us are most of us are along the border okay all right so um you know you're close
01:38:44.480
to you're close to america you understand what's happening here i i contend that it is a game that
01:38:50.600
is being played making us hate the other party it's oh it's the republicans versus the democrats
01:38:56.480
no it's really not in every country in the west that i have seen it is these marches are the little
01:39:04.440
people marching against the elites saying what are you doing why are you doing this this is killing us
01:39:12.540
um is it the same in canada and do you have is anybody waking up to it's not just justin trudeau
01:39:21.460
it's it's all of them it's the elites that are taking us down this this really bizarre path and
01:39:29.180
denying everything that they're doing until they then come out and say yeah we did that what what's
01:39:35.080
the problem yeah yeah i'd say it's part of the sort of political uh realignments i mentioned um it's
01:39:42.080
i'm definitely seeing it i mean i'm speaking from the capital british columbia basically just north
01:39:46.840
of seattle it's easily the most left-wing part of the country and i work for a center-right newspaper
01:39:51.520
so whenever some lefty here has some like dark right-wing thought in the middle of the night they
01:39:56.680
usually call me and that's been happening a lot lately so there's an awful lot of people who have
01:40:01.160
voted um for progressive parties their entire lives and then something just hits them um they'll see
01:40:07.680
why did this guy get bail after you know he keeps killing people when he's out of jail or how come
01:40:12.560
my bike keeps getting stolen so there's a whole bunch of that happening um and at a way more
01:40:18.860
accelerated pace than i'm seeing in the u.s i'm seeing the u.s is still quite entrenched um there's
01:40:23.820
sort of a partisan divide but there's definitely a wave happening uh we are seeing people flooding
01:40:29.020
to the conservative party of canada in rates unseen i would say almost since the 1950s
01:40:35.100
that's incredible and i will tell you i think that's why one of the big reasons why the democrats
01:40:42.020
wanted donald trump to be the candidate because if we can just keep arguing about donald trump and his
01:40:49.220
tweets and everything else then we don't pay attention to wait a minute there's something else
01:40:54.720
going on here uh tristan thank you so much and i appreciate it and love to stay in touch with you
01:40:59.480

censorship and suppression of uh uh well it's a whole campaign against people like us the alleged
01:42:37.780
mis and disinformation which is far too often aimed at conservatives and anyone who disagrees with the
01:42:44.200
administration the murphy versus missouri supreme court case which the biden white house colluded with
01:42:50.240
social media platforms to censor speech that's just the tip of the iceberg there is so much more of this
01:42:57.580
censorship that is coming thanks to a foia request and eventual lawsuit brought by american first legal
01:43:03.500
they were able to uncover a fascinating report by the uh by u.s agency for international development

01:43:25.420
disinformation primer which provides a disturbing insider's view of our government's strategies for
01:43:33.780
dealing with the rampant so-called information disorder that often means just speech that doesn't
01:43:40.860
adhere to left-wing narrative i'll tell you about the government's partnerships in media literacy

welcome to the glenn beck program you know it's an important it's it's part of our mission here
01:47:05.200
to not only try to uphold the american way the way of life and safeguard our history
01:47:11.080
um but it's very important to us to keep the lines of communication open and i've been warning
01:47:18.720
for a while now that tough times lie ahead and they do but amidst the darkness there's always a
01:47:26.000
glimmer of hope and a flicker of light guiding our way forward um we we at the blaze need to
01:47:33.920
you know the blaze was named after the burning bush i don't know if you know that
01:47:37.320
but i named it after the burning bush because that is a fire that burns but doesn't consume
01:47:45.300
and if you're standing in the purifying fire of god and and you're there god help you if you are not
01:47:53.180
in line with the truth because that fire will burn out all of the imperfections so we we strive for what
01:48:01.000
the truth is and the truth really is so much um larger than this fact or that fact it is based on fact
01:48:11.620
but it's also based on um on who we are and where we came from and what is necessary to keep going
01:48:21.720
especially in times of need we need hope and we also need to laugh once in a while and i don't know
01:48:30.140
about you but there are times that i just like can i just laugh now the things that we're working on
01:48:37.280
now at the blaze i mean they may not be everybody's cup of tea but comedy is in the eye of the beholder
01:48:44.200
um and many of us here at the blaze find these very dry comedies where you know the average slub coming
01:48:54.560
in will go what the hell did i just watch but those who have a very dry sense of humor
01:49:01.620
they quote those movies forever um and you know my some of my favorite movies are are uh christopher
01:49:10.700
guest movies um you know like uh uh like a mighty wind or best in show or any of those also it took
01:49:22.180
me a couple of times to watch napoleon dynamite because i wasn't in the right frame of mind and when
01:49:28.000
i watched it i watched it with my kids and they said dad you gotta watch this funniest movie ever
01:49:32.400
and i started watching them like i do not get this movie and you know i think i just tuned out like
01:49:39.060
10 minutes into it i finally watched it because my wife said you you don't really mr mighty wind you
01:49:46.160
don't get this and it was reframed and i watched it i'm like this is hysterical it's hysterical
01:49:52.400

01:51:23.260
so buttery dumb comedy film it's so dumb oh your shirt's down featuring one f-bomb that was probably
01:51:31.200

01:51:36.480
individually two suitors how's that work donnie donnie donnie donnie donnie and donnie

01:51:50.660
in the most exciting pool related comedy of the year yeah my buddy says you have a pool
01:52:03.460
it's available now on blaze tv it is really really funny and we've been working with these guys
01:52:14.520
i don't know if you saw what was the grand reopening or just reopening reopening uh that was
01:52:19.300
yeah um you can find that on the blaze right now which was the reopening if you didn't see it you
01:52:26.040
really missed out you gotta watch it on blaze um it is a uh story of a small town theater
01:52:32.920
that is reopening after covid and if if you i mean it came out and i don't know how many people saw it
01:52:41.660
they everybody on the blaze should watch it uh all the blaze subscribers because it is so it made fun
01:52:49.640
of everything the government was doing and all of those people that were just way over the top
01:52:55.380
at the time when we were nobody was saying anything and it is really funny that's reopening from same
01:53:02.780
people we have agua donkeys and we have some more coming out uh that i think you're going to enjoy
01:53:08.380
yeah really really funny and uh and just i you know again it's got no it's not like some big point
01:53:14.040
like i feel like a lot of these movies especially on the right get made like when they're trying to
01:53:17.440
be comedies and they're they're just like hey here's a really hilarious movie about lowered
01:53:23.800
individual tax rates and you're like okay that's not really yeah it's it's that's more of a mission
01:53:29.320
here's the right here's the thing um we've done some testing on it and some people have said
01:53:35.420
well i don't understand why the blaze is running this well what do you mean well it doesn't it it
01:53:42.820
doesn't talk about the bible or george washington it's like yeah because this is a lifestyle we're
01:53:50.440
a lifestyle and um we want to be a part of all of your life and i know you don't come to us for comedy
01:53:58.440
and you get it elsewhere etc but we do it because we also need to laugh um and that's part of our day
01:54:06.360
is to be able to be able to have something i thought it was really important that they said
01:54:12.200
in the movie and one f-bomb and because i'm watching it and i i said to tyler he said are you okay with
01:54:21.140
that and i'm like am i okay with what and it was said so fast that i didn't even notice it and he said
01:54:27.280
well it was an f-bomb and and you know i don't want to cut it or bleep it or you know anything i
01:54:32.120
said i didn't even know it was one but let's make that in the promo and there's one f-bomb
01:54:37.980
so everybody knows you know it's clean except for that one time um but it was funny yeah it's very
01:54:47.620
very funny these guys are really funny i had seen some some of their stuff a couple years ago and just
01:54:51.860
you know loved it it was just really really funny and if you if you have yeah again as you point out
01:54:57.460
it's it's a certain type of sense of humor if you'd like the pacing of like a napoleon dynamite i mean
01:55:02.340
you're gonna love this and it's uh it is uh i love i love those awkward moments and this is these two

01:57:12.900
all right uh that's all tonight on blaze tv all right let me tell you about uh juan
01:57:20.700
he wrote in about his dog's experience with rough greens he says jojo is getting older
01:57:25.060
he's been starting to slow down quite a bit lately ever since we started using rough greens things are
01:57:31.180
different i see him bark and run he's now chasing the cat and jumping into the bed whereas before
01:57:36.240
he just lay there he seems a lot happier too i love my jojo thank you so much for rough greens
01:57:42.100
juan you're welcome and thanks for writing in and telling me about your dog this is what we hear
01:57:47.120
time and time again that um your dog is just kind of listless and you know you think maybe he's
01:57:54.580
getting older or that's just the way he is i started feeding uh uno rough greens and he was like a puppy
01:58:00.980
again it was incredible i think it's dog crack but let's keep it to ourselves okay sure we get some of
01:58:07.540
the ingredients from across the border not at all but i mean it could be we don't know we don't know
01:58:13.480
what's in it well it's all marked on the package and it's all good things for your dog but it acts
01:58:18.340
like dog crack in many many ways except they don't lose their teeth in fact they get healthier and
01:58:23.340
stronger but i digress go to rough greens they love when i ad lib on these commercials rough greens.com

01:58:58.460
oh yeah welcome to the uh program glad you're here uh did you see what mb msnbc uh has done
01:59:22.140
you know they they tried to hire a a republican the former uh head of the republican national
01:59:29.560
committee and uh and their people just went crazy and so here's the statement last night
01:59:35.320
uh from msnbc on uh rona mcdaniel's nbc news leadership has announced that former rnc chair rona
01:59:44.340
mcdaniel will not be an nbc news contributor we have a new email and update that's come out just
01:59:51.400
within this hour so this is sort of breaking news here within our organization on a story that has
01:59:56.220
garnered significant attention and criticism in this new email quote there's no doubt that the
02:00:01.880
last several days have been difficult for the news group after listening to the legitimate concerns of
02:00:07.040
many of you i have decided that rona mcdaniel will not be an nbc news contributor he goes on to write
02:00:13.800
that no organization particularly a newsroom can succeed unless it is cohesive and aligned
02:00:18.480
over the last few days it has become clear that disappointment undermines that goal
02:00:23.740
may i just say you are pathetic nbc news absolutely pathetic you you your newsroom can't work if you're
02:00:39.200
not all aligned you shouldn't be aligned on politics or anything else you should be aligned
02:00:47.800
on finding the facts and reporting them accurately since when do we all have to believe exactly the same
02:00:55.580
thing you're pathetic there is something to be said for opposition in all things now that's amazing
02:01:03.820
because that comes from god who kind of knows the truth and yet he set up a system where opposition
02:01:13.680
in all things is important but not for nbc news no no well you know our people know the truth and
02:01:22.440
they don't need to hear anybody else's opinion on what the truth will be we know it and you know
02:01:28.840
another thing you you say that we are um uh we just have zombies in our audience these people they
02:01:37.860
did they just hypnotize all these people all across the nation fill them with disinformation
02:01:41.960
really our people are thinking people they want to hear the other side they want to know what's
02:01:48.740
really going on they'll argue with me and you know what me as the guy i don't bow down to them
02:01:57.460
to serve them i listen to what they have to say and if i think they're right i'll say they're right
02:02:03.900
if i if if i think i'm wrong and they've corrected me i will say i'm wrong but if i think that they're
02:02:11.220
wrong and i'm right i'll say that too i don't change my show for the listeners i don't do that
02:02:20.040
what a pathetic we you have just built yourself a room where you are terrified of the mob because
02:02:29.160
whatever the mob call you know i heard him say earlier the well you know the uh the the phone
02:02:35.500
calls that came in over the weekend the what the phone calls does nbc nbc have a switchboard that's
02:02:45.300
open on saturday and sunday where a listener i wouldn't even know how to begin to look up the
02:02:51.820
nbc 30 rock newsroom and comment section my gosh who even uses the phone like that anymore
02:02:59.980
our switchboards were flooded with people shut up well they said calls came in right people in
02:03:06.480
you the right people that that you think are the right people like the clintons called in and said
02:03:12.000
what are you doing exactly what are you doing she's not even hot that's what happened that's
02:03:16.200
exactly what happened the calls came from people like joe scarborough who was calling management and
02:03:21.660
was angry about it and you know it's just pathetic you can't i mean ron mcdaniel's not even like i mean
02:03:26.800
would you even what would you even consider her she's been like the mouthpiece of the republican
02:03:31.140
national committee she's not like a you know a hardcore conservative she's not even liked by the trump
02:03:37.240
people at this point i know she can't she's not liked by she's only liked by the people like mitch
02:03:44.260
mcconnell which you shouldn't have a problem with because he votes with you that's so bizarre i mean
02:03:51.120
again no one's thinking that you know msnbc is going to correctly represent conservatism but you can't
02:03:56.520
even accept to hear it you can't even allow your audience to hear a little bit of it right but if you
02:04:02.240
disagree with us call and we'll hang up on you okay so back program
