00:00:34.600 Glenn is writing on a chalkboard, which is always an exciting part to the beginning of the week.
00:00:39.080 It's always exciting.
00:00:40.000 It's always exciting.
00:00:40.780 Yeah.
00:00:41.140 That's the way it starts.
00:00:42.180 Yeah.
00:00:42.620 Let me tell you about the burner launcher, shall I?
00:00:44.740 Burn a launcher.
00:00:45.800 I'm a gun owner.
00:00:46.700 I believe in the Second Amendment, but I also believe in having the right tools at hand.
00:00:51.300 And, you know, sometimes a gun is not exactly the right tool.
00:00:56.840 Sometimes you need something that is less lethal.
00:00:59.780 Something that will just stop somebody in their tracks.
00:01:03.160 Take action right now.
00:01:04.580 Protect what's important to you.
00:01:06.720 I want you to go to burner, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn, and get a burner launcher.
00:01:10.640 You get a 10% discount off your purchase right now.
00:01:12.840 It fires non-lethal kinetic and tear gas rounds, which will incapacitate somebody for up to 40 minutes.
00:01:20.240 They're all hand-assembled in Fort Wayne, Indiana, by a proud American company.
00:01:23.620 The people at Burna believe in your right to defend yourself and being completely prepared for that.
00:01:28.640 And the way to do that is with a Burna launcher from Burna dot com slash Glenn.
00:01:32.120 Stand together with Burna, where safety meets responsibility and preparation meets peace of mind.
00:01:37.140 Thank you.
00:01:55.200 Thank you.
00:01:55.820 Oh, yeah.
00:02:01.820 Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:02:07.820 Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah.
00:02:11.820 Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah.
00:02:15.820 Down the road where shadows hide, feel the dark on every side.
00:02:21.820 Stand your ground when times get dark, gotta face the dark.
00:02:24.820 And embrace the fire.
00:02:28.820 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:32.820 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:38.820 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:40.820 I'm so glad that you're here.
00:02:42.820 There's a lot to cover on what has been happening over the weekend.
00:02:45.820 We're going to get to that in 60 seconds.
00:02:48.820 Stand by first.
00:02:49.820 If you've been living with pain, you, if you're anything like me,
00:02:52.820 desperately want to get your life back, right?
00:02:56.820 I'm here to tell you that not only do I understand firsthand what it's like,
00:02:58.820 but also I may have the answer for you.
00:03:00.820 It's called Relief Factor.
00:03:02.820 And it's worked for me when everything else I tried failed.
00:03:06.820 As someone who thought he was never going to find something that would make the pain go away,
00:03:09.820 I've been in love with Relief Factor now for years.
00:03:12.820 It is not a drug.
00:03:13.820 It's a daily supplement that helps your body fight pain by fighting inflammation,
00:03:16.820 which is the source of most of the pain in our bodies and a lot of our disease.
00:03:20.820 It's 100% drug free developed by doctors to help reduce or eliminate pain.
00:03:25.820 And over a million people have tried Relief Factor's quick start kit,
00:03:28.820 and 70% of them have gone on to order it again and again.
00:03:31.820 So make 2025 the year of feeling good and living great.
00:03:35.820 Trying Relief Factor is easy.
00:03:37.820 Get their three-week quick start for only $19.95.
00:03:40.820 That's less than a dollar a day at 1-800-4-RELIEF.
00:03:43.820 1-800-4-RELIEF.
00:03:46.820 Relief Factor.
00:03:47.820 Or visit relieffactor.com.
00:03:49.820 All right.
00:03:50.820 Let me just give you the news as I see it.
00:03:54.820 What happened over the weekend of February 15th and 16th.
00:03:57.820 What happened this weekend, I think, is liberty, justice, and the truth breaking free.
00:04:02.820 So let's dive in here.
00:04:03.820 Kash Patel is taking the FBI helm.
00:04:06.820 His first full official day is today.
00:04:10.820 He was sworn in as FBI director with the hand on the Gita of a pledge to uphold his constitution.
00:04:20.820 It's not a bureaucratic shuffle.
00:04:24.820 It is a shot across the bow of the weaponized deep state.
00:04:27.820 This one makes all the difference in the world.
00:04:31.820 Kash is making people in Washington sweat, and he should.
00:04:36.820 Patel has vowed to root out corruption left, right, or center, and the whispers of the Epstein client list that he told me over the summer was in a safe behind the desk of the director of the FBI.
00:04:51.820 I know that Kash Patel must have been in the office of the FBI on Friday because Pam Bondi said the client list is now sitting on my desk.
00:05:04.820 I'm reviewing it.
00:05:06.820 I have a feeling Kash took it out from behind that desk safe and brought it over to Pam Bondi.
00:05:13.820 She looked at it, and I'm hoping, as today is his first full day in office, it will be released today.
00:05:21.820 But transparency one way or another is coming, and justice isn't going to care who you voted for.
00:05:27.820 I'm going to tell you more about this coming up in just a minute.
00:05:30.820 Also, Trump has locked in his cabinet now.
00:05:32.820 He has finalized his cabinet this weekend.
00:05:35.820 Patel, RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, the folks who have bucked the system, not bowed to it, are all in.
00:05:42.820 The Senate's buzzing.
00:05:44.820 But this crew is built to shrink government and not meddle abroad unless America is directly threatened.
00:05:51.820 No more endless wars, no more nanny state, just constitutional governance.
00:05:57.820 That's what they're promising, and so far, that's what they're delivering.
00:06:00.820 The elites absolutely hate it, which makes me love it.
00:06:08.820 By the way, I don't understand.
00:06:10.820 Democrats, you've been preaching against the Pentagon forever now.
00:06:15.820 Wait, Donald Trump says cut 8% of the defense budget in the next four years, and you're somehow or another against that now?
00:06:27.820 Wow.
00:06:28.820 Hello, Democrat Lindsey Grahams of the world.
00:06:33.820 Midwest storms all through the states, but FEMA wasn't there.
00:06:39.820 Oh, no.
00:06:40.820 If you read the stories about this this weekend, you heard that it was chaos because FEMA had been cut.
00:06:47.820 Really?
00:06:48.820 Is that what caused the chaos?
00:06:50.820 Brule storm buried the Midwest.
00:06:52.820 Snow piled high.
00:06:53.820 Power was out.
00:06:54.820 Lives disrupted.
00:06:56.820 The media is whining about FEMA and the FEMA cuts.
00:07:00.820 But hang on, because I think everyone saw this storm coming.
00:07:05.820 It wasn't like, oh, my gosh, it was a tornado that came out of nowhere.
00:07:10.820 The storm had to travel halfway across the country to get to your state, Illinois, Michigan.
00:07:19.820 You didn't have warnings.
00:07:22.820 Were you in Ghana?
00:07:25.820 How come you didn't prepare?
00:07:29.820 You see, it's weird.
00:07:30.820 When we know a hurricane is coming, Florida seems to be able to pull their head out of their rectum and actually prepare.
00:07:41.820 So when it hits, they can turn the lights back on.
00:07:44.820 But gee, Illinois, Michigan, you just couldn't get it done.
00:07:49.820 What does Illinois and Michigan have in common?
00:07:52.820 Where are the governors?
00:07:55.820 Florida shrugs off hurricanes without federal babysitters.
00:07:58.820 Why can't Michigan and Illinois?
00:08:01.820 FEMA is nothing but a bloated crutch.
00:08:05.820 States need to step up or ask for help.
00:08:07.820 Oh, my gosh, wouldn't it have been crazy if when you knew there was this storm coming,
00:08:12.820 you as a governor could have been in the same room with the president at the White House last week.
00:08:20.820 Maybe you got to pull them aside and said, hey, we got a big emergency coming.
00:08:25.820 Can you help us?
00:08:27.820 Seems other states did that.
00:08:30.820 Why weren't you ready?
00:08:32.820 People, you need to start relying on your states and demanding that your governors pull their heads out of their rectum.
00:08:42.820 Next story that I saw, the homelessness crisis.
00:08:46.820 Oh, my gosh, it's a crisis.
00:08:49.820 Ha.
00:08:50.820 Ha.
00:08:51.820 Ha.
00:08:52.820 That is the first time I've seen that one.
00:08:55.820 There's a homelessness crisis in our country.
00:09:00.820 What?
00:09:01.820 Yes.
00:09:02.820 Tent cities grew this weekend.
00:09:05.820 Yeah.
00:09:06.820 You know why?
00:09:07.820 According to the mainstream media, the HUD staff cuts by the Doge team.
00:09:14.820 Hang on just a second.
00:09:17.820 It's been a week for those cuts.
00:09:21.820 So you cut the staff at the top of HUD a week ago and all of a sudden homelessness is out of control.
00:09:32.820 Eh.
00:09:33.820 Show me the cut that tanked housing overnight.
00:09:36.820 Could you do that for me?
00:09:38.820 I think this might predate Donald Trump.
00:09:42.820 I don't know.
00:09:43.820 I've never seen any pictures of homeless camps all around the country before this last weekend.
00:09:50.820 This is decades of blue state failures, not a seven day staffing trim.
00:09:56.820 Governors and mayors, you all own this now, not Uncle Sam.
00:10:02.820 Accountability is about to go local.
00:10:06.820 Hmm.
00:10:07.820 Closer to the people.
00:10:09.820 Maybe we can make changes.
00:10:13.820 Also, Trump and Zelensky were back at it.
00:10:17.820 Zelensky says he's not going to give the United States anything unless, I mean, he'll retire if, if Ukraine's allowed to join NATO.
00:10:29.820 Isn't this where we started this whole thing in the first place?
00:10:34.820 Germany's election, if we have time today, I want to talk about that.
00:10:38.820 They had a snap election.
00:10:40.820 A campaign that went on the far right AFD is on the rise.
00:10:45.820 That's because Vance was stirring the pot, you know, in Munich.
00:10:49.820 That's what happened.
00:10:50.820 Vance was meddling.
00:10:51.820 Now, you know, what we did is we cut all those USAID programs that were actually meddling in everything.
00:10:58.820 Meddling in everybody's elections around the world.
00:11:02.820 We decided we shouldn't do that.
00:11:04.820 We should let the people of those countries decide themselves.
00:11:08.820 Yeah.
00:11:09.820 You want to talk about a danger to democracy?
00:11:12.820 Stop meddling in people's elections.
00:11:15.820 Right?
00:11:16.820 Am I right?
00:11:18.820 Their vote was held yesterday.
00:11:20.820 And the fallout is Germany's to handle.
00:11:23.820 We'll watch.
00:11:24.820 We'll not wait in, hopefully.
00:11:27.820 I mean, unless it starts to hit our shores.
00:11:30.820 It's not our business.
00:11:31.820 Stateside, we have bigger fish to fry.
00:11:34.820 But there are some things that if I have time, we need to talk about on that.
00:11:38.820 And Elon Musk is pushing for AI innovation.
00:11:45.820 The Doge crew cheered California's AI safety veto this weekend.
00:11:50.820 Less red tape, more breakthroughs.
00:11:53.820 At the same time, he just came out and said, we are at the event horizon of the singularity.
00:12:02.820 A big deal.
00:12:03.820 What are the price of eggs?
00:12:05.820 Um, I don't know.
00:12:07.820 But we might have robot chickens that eat us soon if you don't pay attention to the singularity.
00:12:12.820 We'll talk about that coming up next hour.
00:12:14.820 And the FCC has called out CBS.
00:12:17.820 Their bias.
00:12:18.820 The FCC zeroed in on CBS this weekend.
00:12:22.820 Probes into news distortion hinting at real consequences.
00:12:27.820 Fascist!
00:12:28.820 This is not censorship.
00:12:30.820 This is about accountability.
00:12:32.820 Now, hear me out on this.
00:12:35.820 Should stations be able to lie?
00:12:38.820 Well, no.
00:12:41.820 But notice I said stations, not outlets.
00:12:47.820 When you have a license from the United States government, you're in bed with the United States government.
00:12:56.820 I know I've done this my whole life.
00:13:00.820 I had to get an FCC third phone.
00:13:03.820 I'm a third phone, uh, uh, license holder.
00:13:07.820 I'll tell you that.
00:13:08.820 I don't even know what that means, but I've got one.
00:13:12.820 I had to take a test for it.
00:13:14.820 Yeah.
00:13:15.820 13 years old.
00:13:16.820 I'm at the FCC taking a test for my third phone license.
00:13:21.820 Uh, I promptly lost that license.
00:13:24.820 I mean, I still have it.
00:13:26.820 I didn't.
00:13:27.820 I mean, I, I lost it kind of like I lose my driver's license all the time.
00:13:31.820 But if you want to lose a license, what you have to do as a local broadcaster is to break FCC rules.
00:13:41.820 You see local CBS stations have to have a license through the FCC.
00:13:48.820 They serve the local community.
00:13:51.820 Now, perhaps in New York and San Francisco, those people believe in their local community that lying to the American people and changing, uh, interviews to be able to make one politician look better than the other in a newscast is a public service.
00:14:09.820 I mean, we can't have people knowing what they really believe and what they're really like.
00:14:15.820 We need them to win as a public service, but I can't imagine all the red states and red cities feel that that was a public service from CBS news.
00:14:25.820 My question is, have you written a letter to your local CBS affiliate?
00:14:30.820 You see any complaint letters where somebody writes in from the local community and says, I think this was wrong.
00:14:40.820 And I hope the FCC investigates you.
00:14:43.820 And I've CC'd the FCC.
00:14:46.820 Too many C's for me to even follow.
00:14:49.820 I've CC'd the FCC.
00:14:53.820 And so the FCC is going to know about it.
00:14:55.820 ASAP.
00:14:56.820 I'll tell you that right now.
00:14:57.820 And hopefully they're going to kick your ASS.
00:15:01.820 Anyway, have you written your local affiliate yet?
00:15:06.820 And manufacturers warn of trouble.
00:15:10.820 Beep beep beep beep beep beep.
00:15:12.820 New York Times says the New York Fed's latest is peg manufacturing at peak pessimism this last weekend.
00:15:19.820 A slowdown is looming.
00:15:22.820 We can't wait to blame Trump.
00:15:24.820 No, they didn't actually say that.
00:15:26.820 But, you know, they were thinking I.
00:15:29.820 This is from years of overregulation, globalism.
00:15:33.820 It's all biting back.
00:15:34.820 States can lead the fix, cut taxes, ditch the green tape.
00:15:38.820 Washington shouldn't be the only savior here.
00:15:41.820 Every state should take it on.
00:15:44.820 And finally, one last story.
00:15:48.820 And it's a sad one.
00:15:50.820 It seems another major chain might be ready to bite the dust.
00:15:55.820 Bloomberg has reported that Hooters, the country's most famous breastaurant,
00:16:02.820 is in talks with the law firm Ropes and Gray to prepare bankruptcy.
00:16:08.820 It is always sad to see people struggle.
00:16:13.820 But even more sad when a great institution, American institution like this goes tits up.
00:16:22.820 All right.
00:16:23.820 Let's talk about Jace Medical.
00:16:25.820 When you go on vacation, there are a few things you don't want to forget.
00:16:29.820 Your keys, your wallet, your underpants.
00:16:32.820 Of course, I won't make that mistake again.
00:16:34.820 What did I?
00:16:35.820 How did I forget my underpants?
00:16:37.820 Anyway, you also don't want to forget your Jace Go is from the maker of the Jace case.
00:16:42.820 And it's a compact, reliable case filled with emergency travel medications designed to keep you on track no matter what.
00:16:48.820 Let's say you're traveling and you get food poisoning.
00:16:51.820 Why not have everything you need ready and not have to search around for a doctor in a place you don't know well in the middle of the night?
00:16:59.820 Sound familiar, Stu?
00:17:01.820 These kinds of things happen to the best of us and even Stu.
00:17:05.820 You might as well be prepared for them.
00:17:07.820 And it's not just about convenience.
00:17:09.820 It's about peace of mind, whether the issue is distance or availability, whether you're traveling in this country or a foreign one, Jace Go will ensure you're covered.
00:17:17.820 Please, this year, why not travel smarter and stay prepared?

00:17:31.820 Promo code back.
00:17:33.820 Ten seconds.
00:17:34.820 Station ID.
00:17:39.820 Hello, Stu.
00:17:47.820 Hi, Glenn.
00:17:48.820 How are you?
00:17:49.820 Oh, I'm great.
00:17:50.820 How are you?
00:17:51.820 Great to see you.
00:17:52.820 Great to see you.
00:17:53.820 Are you a little disappointed on the Hooters thing?
00:17:56.820 No.
00:17:57.820 No, I'm not one to frequent Hooters.
00:18:01.820 Really?
00:18:02.820 No, I'm not.
00:18:03.820 Really?
00:18:04.820 No.
00:18:05.820 That's kind of shocking.
00:18:06.820 Yeah.
00:18:07.820 And so you are, you did frequent it, at least at some point.
00:18:10.820 I went once.
00:18:11.820 Long time ago.
00:18:12.820 Long time.
00:18:13.820 One time.
00:18:14.820 And I only went to read the menu.
00:18:15.820 That's all I did.
00:18:16.820 That's all you did?
00:18:17.820 That's all I did.
00:18:18.820 Didn't even look around.
00:18:19.820 I was there for the, the menu was great reading.
00:18:20.820 Yeah.
00:18:21.820 It was great reading.
00:18:22.820 It does seem like a strange piece of, the restaurant idea is a very strange thing to
00:18:28.820 still be around these days.
00:18:29.820 It feels like, right?
00:18:31.820 It just feels like with all the woke stuff that happened and you know, the, the me too
00:18:36.820 era and all that, they were just like, ah, you know, like, it doesn't seem like the
00:18:40.820 type of thing that would have lasted through there.
00:18:42.820 Apparently it's, it's not lasting all that well.
00:18:44.820 Well, I don't think anybody really cared, you know?
00:18:47.820 What do you mean?
00:18:48.820 I don't think anybody really was caring about, you know, anything was kind of fake.
00:18:53.820 Yeah.
00:18:54.820 I mean, it started out.
00:18:55.820 I'm sure that there were sincere people.
00:18:57.820 There certainly were good.
00:18:58.820 There were good things.
00:18:59.820 The Harvey Weinstein thing.
00:19:00.820 Pretty, pretty, pretty much happy about that.
00:19:02.820 A few things that were really good.
00:19:03.820 The rest of it was just like, I got a pitchfork and a torch and I don't really care or even
00:19:09.820 know what I'm talking about.
00:19:11.820 Let me join in.
00:19:13.820 It's just nuts.
00:19:16.820 It did seem pretty fake after a while.
00:19:19.820 Yeah.
00:19:20.820 These things always turn around that way, right?
00:19:21.820 Yeah.
00:19:22.820 Something that starts with a good idea, gets exploited by every single organization that's
00:19:27.820 receiving government funding that we find out about 10 years later.
00:19:30.820 Yeah.
00:19:31.820 I know I've heard, if I hear it once, I've heard it a thousand times.
00:19:34.820 Oh, thank goodness.
00:19:35.820 Cash Patel is in, you know, he's the first person of color ever to run the FBI.
00:19:40.820 Yeah.
00:19:41.820 I haven't heard that much at all.
00:19:42.820 You haven't heard that?
00:19:43.820 No.
00:19:44.820 No, no, no.
00:19:45.820 We're just not watching the right sources.
00:19:47.820 Well, I know that there's certainly not a bunch of white Democrats that would be opposing
00:19:50.820 him.
00:19:51.820 No, of course not.
00:19:52.820 Because white people wouldn't have the...
00:19:53.820 No.
00:19:54.820 Don't you lecture me as a white person, white man.
00:19:57.820 Right.
00:19:58.820 Yeah.
00:19:59.820 Yeah.
00:20:00.820 Yeah.
00:20:01.820 The white Democrat I've seen has come out and said what a terrible guy he would be to
00:20:05.820 put into office.
00:20:06.820 Yeah.
00:20:07.820 Yeah.
00:20:08.820 It's almost as if...
00:20:09.820 And again, what they're doing here is the right thing.
00:20:11.820 Mm-hmm.
00:20:12.820 Right?
00:20:13.820 The right thing is if someone who is ideologically against you, it has a different approach than
00:20:17.820 you appreciate.
00:20:18.820 Yeah.
00:20:19.820 You oppose them on the merit of their ideas.
00:20:21.820 Yeah.
00:20:22.820 Right.
00:20:23.820 If you think Cash Fatale has bad ideas, it's totally fine to oppose them.
00:20:25.820 No, no.
00:20:26.820 I've got pitchforks and torches.
00:20:27.820 Right.
00:20:28.820 Let me join in.
00:20:29.820 Instead, we're told usually you're just supposed to overlook your ideological opposition.
00:20:33.820 Yeah.
00:20:34.820 Yeah.
00:20:35.820 Or whatever your opposition is when it comes to their abilities and embrace them because
00:20:40.820 of the color of their skin.
00:20:42.820 That goes out the window the second there's an R near their name.
00:20:44.820 You know, I've known Cash for a long time now, like Cash an awful lot.
00:20:49.820 But I didn't even think about him being the first person of color until Fox News reported
00:20:56.820 on it.
00:20:57.820 And they only reported on it like, where's everybody?
00:20:59.820 Right.
00:21:00.820 Where's everybody on the left talking about this?
00:21:01.820 Because it's not important.
00:21:02.820 It's not important.
00:21:03.820 As I'm sure Cash would say.
00:21:05.820 I don't care.
00:21:06.820 I don't care.
00:21:08.820 And then Dan Bongino going into deputy director of the FBI.
00:21:12.820 This podcaster, a podcaster.
00:21:16.820 I can't believe this.
00:21:18.820 Just like Pete Hegseth, a host of a show.
00:21:21.820 Like they never.
00:21:22.820 Well, I do.
00:21:23.820 I mean, we should mention that somewhere on his resume, he was also part of the presidential
00:21:29.820 Secret Service detail.
00:21:30.820 Yeah.
00:21:31.820 And a police officer for that.
00:21:33.820 Whatever.
00:21:34.820 Yeah.
00:21:35.820 Whatever.
00:21:36.820 He's a podcaster.
00:21:37.820 That's all he's doing, Glenn.
00:21:38.820 He's just picking famous people.
00:21:39.820 Yeah.
00:21:40.820 He's getting into these roles.
00:21:41.820 Yeah.
00:21:42.820 Even though the reason why Dan Bongino largely is famous is because he was in the Secret
00:21:47.820 Service for Barack Obama.
00:21:48.820 Right.
00:21:49.820 And came on this show a bunch of times.
00:21:51.820 Yeah.
00:21:52.820 I'm sure with others as well and talked about his experience there and said, hey, there's
00:21:55.820 a lot of problems going on with this.
00:21:58.820 We should fix this.
00:22:00.820 He became famous, started a podcast, became even more famous.
00:22:04.820 And now they're like, well, he's a podcaster.
00:22:07.820 You're getting this job.
00:22:08.820 It's fascinating how that happens.
00:22:10.820 It's almost as if they have selective amnesia, amnesia, amnesia.
00:22:16.820 Do they get to select it?
00:22:17.820 They seem to be able to select it.
00:22:19.820 You know, I used to think grow, you know, when I, when I grew up, because as a kid, you
00:22:23.820 think two problems that you're going to have, you're going to have to deal with through
00:22:26.820 life, quicksand and amnesia, because when you're a kid, quicksand seems to be everywhere.
00:22:32.820 There's always quicksand someplace.
00:22:34.820 And no, as an adult, never had to deal with that.
00:22:37.820 And I thought, no, you know, I've never had to deal with anybody who's like lost their
00:22:42.820 memory.
00:22:43.820 You know, such a common thing that happened in TV shows, TV shows.
00:22:46.820 And but I have to tell you, also happens in the Democratic Party an awful lot.
00:22:52.820 It's a lot.
00:22:53.820 Weird.
00:22:54.820 Weird.
00:22:55.820 Maybe.
00:22:56.820 Maybe the problem with the party is they're also stuck in quicksand.
00:23:10.820 This is Glenn Beck.
00:23:13.820 NMLS 182334.
00:23:15.820 NMLSConsumerAccess.org.

00:23:24.820 Let me tell you something.
00:23:25.820 If I could get my butterfly net out and I could just catch hope in a jar and put a lid on it
00:23:30.820 and give it away, I would every day.
00:23:32.820 We're so short on hope nowadays and I've got a butterfly net to catch that hope.
00:23:37.820 Yeah, I don't have a butterfly net or a jar full of hope, but I do have some things that can actually help you.
00:23:45.820 But the jar of hope won't help.
00:23:47.820 When it comes to the economy and personal finances, here's something better than the butterfly net and the jar of hope.

00:24:53.820 Why can't you say the I's?
00:24:54.820 I don't know.
00:24:55.820 Glenn has me thinking about pasta.
00:24:56.820 That's the bottom line of what's happening.
00:24:58.820 Only because I gave him a sneak peek of the chalkboard next hour that's coming up, which will describe the process of spaghettification.
00:25:07.820 And then I started thinking about spaghetti.
00:25:09.820 And then I started thinking about putting rigolt.
00:25:11.820 Yeah.
00:25:12.820 You can't say it.
00:25:13.820 I mean, my family.
00:25:14.820 Do we have any ricotta?
00:25:16.820 Oh, my gosh.
00:25:17.820 I get hammered.
00:25:18.820 I get hammered.
00:25:19.820 I mean, that's what the word says.
00:25:21.820 You know, I've always I'm my mom.
00:25:23.820 Very, very Italian.
00:25:24.820 Very Italian.
00:25:25.820 I grew up in an Italian house.
00:25:26.820 And I get like you're supposed to say medical or whatever.
00:25:28.820 Yeah.
00:25:29.820 It's like there's an I at the end of it.
00:25:30.820 I'm sorry.
00:25:31.820 Yeah.
00:25:32.820 It's true.
00:25:33.820 This is America.
00:25:34.820 I want some rigotti, please.
00:25:35.820 Yeah.
00:25:36.820 Oh, my gosh.
00:25:37.820 We're killed.
00:25:38.820 We're in little Italian concentration camps.
00:25:41.820 When you when you marry into a Italian family.
00:25:43.820 Oh, they'll put you in a little.
00:25:45.820 You say something like that.
00:25:47.820 You'll know it.
00:25:48.820 And that's just the way it goes.
00:25:50.820 I will say most concentration camps.
00:25:53.820 Negative.
00:25:54.820 Negative experiences.
00:25:55.820 This one is pretty good.
00:25:56.820 An Italian household.
00:25:57.820 Yeah.
00:25:58.820 It's pretty good.
00:25:59.820 Because mom is, you know, she'll come knocking at the door like at midnight.
00:26:01.820 She'd be like, you're hungry, right?
00:26:03.820 I made you some meatballs.
00:26:05.820 Okay.
00:26:06.820 It's 3 a.m.
00:26:07.820 But sure.
00:26:08.820 All right.
00:26:09.820 Okay.
00:26:10.820 So the chalkboard's coming up in just a second.
00:26:13.820 You don't want to miss that.
00:26:14.820 Now, I don't know if you feel this, but there's a whisper in the air.
00:26:18.820 There's a hum of anticipation.
00:26:22.820 Something that has been buried.
00:26:26.820 Something that we all know has been there, but we just couldn't see or touch.
00:26:31.820 It's about to be dug up today.
00:26:34.820 Yeah.
00:26:35.820 Hopefully today.
00:26:36.820 I mean, if not today, well, surely it'll be tomorrow.
00:26:40.820 Because there's no way Kash Patel is not going to release all of the fun stuff that
00:26:47.820 we want released.
00:26:48.820 Right?
00:26:49.820 Am I right?
00:26:50.820 I'm right.
00:26:51.820 Today, Kash Patel, first full day as the FBI director.
00:26:54.820 Now, 10-ish days ago, if you count holidays and the weekends, I said within 10 days or
00:27:05.820 the first full day of Kash Patel as FBI director, it'll be released on day one.
00:27:13.820 First full day.
00:27:14.820 That's today.
00:27:15.820 That's today.
00:27:16.820 So I'm hoping Kash doesn't let me down.
00:27:18.820 I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:27:19.820 He's got a lot of stuff to do.
00:27:21.820 But I mean, letting me down, isn't that kind of a bad thing, Stu?
00:27:24.820 Don't you think?
00:27:25.820 That hurts America.
00:27:26.820 Yeah, that's a bad policy.
00:27:28.820 I hope they don't go that way.
00:27:30.820 Isn't Pam Bondi though?
00:27:31.820 Isn't she looking over the stuff?
00:27:33.820 She's looking over it, but it belongs to the FBI director.
00:27:37.820 So he passed it to her.
00:27:39.820 I'm assuming he passed it to her to look for charges.
00:27:43.820 Hey, you know, you want to do anything with this?
00:27:46.820 Because I want to release this.
00:27:48.820 So we should, maybe we have charges coming, you know, I don't know, Tuesday, Wednesday.
00:27:52.820 Would you be willing to wait until Tuesday or Wednesday if that was the outcome?
00:27:55.820 Or do you want it today no matter what?
00:27:58.820 You asked for it today.
00:27:59.820 He would prove me wrong though.
00:28:01.820 What's more important in America, me being right or justice being served?
00:28:06.820 That's right.
00:28:07.820 Yeah, definitely.
00:28:08.820 You being right.
00:28:09.820 I hope that's the way the government is thinking right now.
00:28:11.820 So today, because I cannot be wrong, the Epstein client list is coming out.
00:28:18.820 Or he prioritizes America over me, whatever.
00:28:23.820 It'll happen later this week.
00:28:25.820 I said it with conviction because, well, I'm not a prophet.
00:28:30.820 I do play one on the radio, but I'm not a prophet.
00:28:33.820 It's because I watched all the pieces fall into place on this one.
00:28:36.820 Cash said in my office on television in an interview that the list sits in a safe behind the desk of the FBI director.
00:28:47.820 And I said, isn't that that's bad, isn't it?
00:28:50.820 Cash, this was last summer.
00:28:51.820 That's that doesn't sound good.
00:28:54.820 Yeah, it's not.
00:28:55.820 Well, I mean, are we sure it's in that safe?
00:28:58.820 Yeah, we're sure.
00:29:00.820 And it's still going to be in that safe with all of its pages.
00:29:03.820 Yeah, pretty sure.
00:29:05.820 OK, that's not as confident.
00:29:07.820 Well, last Friday, Bondi, our our new attorney general, tweeted that it was sitting on her desk ready to review.
00:29:14.820 And I looked up at the stars and I thought the stars are aligning.
00:29:18.820 I mean, I can see it.
00:29:20.820 I mean, there is a storm cloud on the horizon.
00:29:22.820 Will he won't he?
00:29:24.820 And if he does, what does it actually mean for America?
00:29:29.820 If he releases this today, this week, what does it mean for justice, for truth?
00:29:36.820 If he doesn't.
00:29:38.820 Are we the free country that we claim to be?
00:29:41.820 Do we have the trans the transparency that we hope to have?
00:29:48.820 I mean this in a long term, not just to be releases it today.
00:29:51.820 Which would be good for my credibility, Cash, I'm just saying.
00:29:56.820 But let's start with Cash.
00:29:59.820 Who is he?
00:30:00.820 You know, he's not some buttoned up bureaucrat who climbed the ladder kissing rings and kissing butts.
00:30:07.820 This guy's a fighter.
00:30:08.820 He's a former prosecutor.
00:30:10.820 He's a counterterrorism warrior.
00:30:13.820 He's a guy who stared down the deep state and didn't blink.
00:30:18.820 I mean, the guy is on the scale of of Trump.
00:30:22.820 I mean, nobody's shot at him, dare I say yet.
00:30:26.820 But he is just about as brave as Donald Trump.
00:30:29.820 I mean, he doesn't care.
00:30:32.820 So he was sworn in.
00:30:34.820 And and today, I mean, Friday, apparently he opened the safe and gave it to Pam Bondi.
00:30:41.820 If he pulls out that list today and hands it to the world, we're not just talking about names on a page.
00:30:47.820 We are talking about a seismic shift.
00:30:50.820 Everything is changing.
00:30:51.820 Do you feel it?
00:30:52.820 Do you feel it?
00:30:53.820 This is a reckoning that could rip the mask off of the elites that have been hidden behind their wealth and their power and silence.
00:31:02.820 What secrets will come out of Al Capone's vault?
00:31:07.820 I really thought there was a chance that Geraldo Rivera could be, you know, on a special opening up that FBI vault and there would be nothing inside.
00:31:14.820 But apparently it's there.
00:31:16.820 So what secrets are going to come out?
00:31:18.820 Who could be on it?
00:31:19.820 And what will who will they be wearing?
00:31:22.820 We've all speculated politicians, CEOs, celebrity, maybe even royalty.
00:31:28.820 How's that possible?
00:31:30.820 Epstein wasn't just a monster.
00:31:33.820 He was a gatekeeper.
00:31:36.820 He was a collective, a collector of leverage.
00:31:40.820 That's what he did.
00:31:42.820 Who was he collecting that leverage for?
00:31:46.820 He was a spider at the center of a web that stretched across oceans and continents.
00:31:53.820 Who had him build the web?
00:31:57.820 His diary, his little black book, the one the FBI seized, apparently not a social diary.
00:32:03.820 It was a ledger of corruption, a catalog of those who thought that they would be untouchable.
00:32:11.820 Could it be Bill Clinton?
00:32:12.820 Oh, come on.
00:32:13.820 That's so easy.
00:32:14.820 I mean, isn't that that's almost too easy, isn't it?
00:32:18.820 It's one of those that you should go.
00:32:20.820 No, I don't believe that one because it's too easy.
00:32:24.820 But I think I believe that he flew on the Lolita Express.
00:32:28.820 You know, I think I don't get on to.
00:32:32.820 I mean, sure.
00:32:34.820 Come on.
00:32:35.820 It's literature.
00:32:37.820 Lolita.
00:32:38.820 It's literature.
00:32:39.820 And even though it's literature, I still don't get on to the Lolita Express.
00:32:46.820 Penthouse Forum is also literature.
00:32:49.820 So totally fine.
00:32:51.820 It's reading.
00:32:52.820 Prince Andrew.
00:32:54.820 That one.
00:32:55.820 I mean, I'm not surprised by either one of those.
00:32:57.820 Are you Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton?
00:33:01.820 Would you be surprised?
00:33:02.820 No, no, no, no.
00:33:04.820 I mean, Andrew.
00:33:05.820 Andrew.
00:33:06.820 Look, he said pictures taken with the accusers.
00:33:09.820 Like, I mean, it's with the bed behind them.
00:33:11.820 But they weren't doing it.
00:33:12.820 The bed was made nicely made.
00:33:13.820 I might.
00:33:14.820 I might add to Bill Gates.
00:33:19.820 Another one that I would be like, man, I buy that.
00:33:23.820 I buy that.
00:33:24.820 I buy that.
00:33:25.820 So does his wife, by the way.
00:33:26.820 Yeah.
00:33:27.820 In fact, she can buy a lot of things because of that divorce.
00:33:32.820 So who's going to be on it?
00:33:34.820 We don't know yet.
00:33:35.820 But here's the hard truth that we've ignored.
00:33:37.820 The fact that we don't know after all of these years.
00:33:42.820 That's a real indictment on our system, isn't it?
00:33:45.820 I mean, we don't know.
00:33:48.820 I've said this a million times.
00:33:49.820 If it was a bunch of truck drivers on that list, don't you think we'd know all of their names?
00:33:54.820 We'd be like, oh, yeah.
00:33:56.820 Yeah.
00:33:57.820 That guy in that truck, you know, with the mud flaps, with the babes on them.
00:34:02.820 Mm hmm.
00:34:03.820 And when I say babes, I mean, you know, like eight year olds.
00:34:07.820 I think I think we should have seen that one coming.
00:34:10.820 We know it.
00:34:11.820 Yet conveniently, since his death in 2019, the full scope of his network has been locked away.
00:34:20.820 We just don't know.
00:34:23.820 Hmm.
00:34:24.820 Who's been protecting it?
00:34:25.820 Why hasn't anything been done in the Justice Department?
00:34:30.820 See, these are the questions that you have to ask the liberals.
00:34:32.820 Why?
00:34:33.820 Why are you not interested in who might be raping children?
00:34:37.820 I mean, there's a lot of the USAID.
00:34:41.820 They were giving AIDS to all kinds of people.
00:34:45.820 Did you just put an S on the end of that word?
00:34:48.820 I mean, why do you not care?
00:34:51.820 Because I care if it's if it's a Republican.
00:34:55.820 Bye bye.
00:34:56.820 I mean, I want a fair trial.
00:34:59.820 I want to hear all the evidence from everybody.
00:35:00.820 I don't want to convict somebody on this list, but I do want them to be investigated and tried.
00:35:06.820 And if they're found guilty, bye bye.
00:35:08.820 And I don't care who it is.
00:35:10.820 Is it just us?
00:35:11.820 Is it just me?
00:35:12.820 How come liberals don't feel that way?
00:35:15.820 How come they're not like, hey.
00:35:18.820 Who's on that list?
00:35:20.820 Could have been my daughter.
00:35:21.820 My daughter.
00:35:23.820 History is littered with moments where the powerful, you know, have been shielded from their sins behind closed doors and the people paid the price.
00:35:34.820 Think of the Roman senators that whispered in the shadows while the Republic crumbled.
00:35:40.820 That kind of looks a little like today, doesn't it?
00:35:46.820 Or the French that were feasting at Versailles while the peasants starved.
00:35:51.820 So they didn't kind of feel reminiscent.
00:35:53.820 I mean, we don't have white makeup on our faces with a big black wart glued to our cheek.
00:36:00.820 But I mean, we're pretty.
00:36:01.820 I mean, honestly, aren't they a little close to that?
00:36:05.820 In every case, the truth eventually clawed its way out.
00:36:11.820 Unfortunately, a lot of times with blood and chaos because the elites had all the powers and didn't want it to come out.
00:36:20.820 The best thing that could happen is we lance this boil.
00:36:23.820 We've been really lucky in America.
00:36:25.820 Our revolutions are kind of quiet, kind of boring.
00:36:27.820 As far as revolutions go, I mean, we just had one.
00:36:30.820 I don't know if you know that.
00:36:31.820 But the election in November, that was a revolution.
00:36:34.820 But it was an American style revolution.
00:36:36.820 And people got together and said, enough of this crap.
00:36:42.820 Justice, our justice is slower but steady, should be.
00:36:46.820 But that steadiness depends on trust.
00:36:49.820 And the trust has been eroding.
00:36:51.820 And the Epstein saga is a festering wound on our national conscience.
00:36:56.820 As is P. Diddy and all of this stuff.
00:36:58.820 Anything that's happening with our children.
00:37:00.820 Why do we not seem to care about it?
00:37:04.820 We've ignored it.
00:37:05.820 We've distracted ourselves with partisan squabbles.
00:37:08.820 We pretended it's a conspiracy theory for tinfoil hat people.
00:37:13.820 It's not.
00:37:14.820 It's real.
00:37:16.820 And if Kash Patel releases that list today.
00:37:20.820 It's not just a document.
00:37:22.820 It's a mirror forcing us to look at ourselves and ask.
00:37:26.820 Are we worthy of the freedom we claim?
00:37:31.820 What should happen if he releases this?
00:37:36.820 You know, in a free country, transparency isn't optional.
00:37:39.820 It's a bedrock.
00:37:40.820 The First Amendment doesn't protect your right to speak.
00:37:43.820 It implies your right to know the truth and answers.
00:37:48.820 So, what we do from here.
00:37:52.820 After this list drops.
00:37:54.820 Hopefully today.
00:37:55.820 After this list drops.
00:37:58.820 What we do.
00:37:59.820 We'll say a lot about where we're going to end up.
00:38:02.820 More in just a minute.
00:38:04.820 There's something extra delicious about biting into a steak.
00:38:07.820 Or a burger.
00:38:08.820 Or a piece of chicken.
00:38:09.820 Or even some delicious seafood.
00:38:10.820 And knowing that it was harvested here in the United States.
00:38:13.820 It tastes like freedom.
00:38:15.820 It tastes like freedom.
00:38:16.820 That's what I say with my mouth stuffed with a big old burger.
00:38:19.820 Every cut of meat from Good Ranchers.
00:38:21.820 Beef, chicken, pork.
00:38:22.820 It's all raised right here in the U.S.

00:39:31.820 I don't think you get that.
00:39:32.820 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:39:34.820 Tony Evers, the Democratic governor of Wisconsin, has proposed changing mothers, the word mother, to inseminated person.
00:39:44.820 Which, that's why I like, hey, happy inseminated person day.
00:39:48.820 You know?
00:39:49.820 I'm tired of this Mother's Day crap.
00:39:51.820 It's, you really want to think deeply of the process of having children every time you think of your mom.
00:39:57.820 It's an important, it's an important thing to do.
00:40:01.820 Not really necessary to.
00:40:02.820 No.
00:40:03.820 Well, I mean, they're the ones saying insemination in the middle of it.
00:40:06.820 It's crazy.
00:40:07.820 They, really, are you really still there?
00:40:11.820 It feels like they're trying to run away with it.
00:40:14.820 We're away from it.
00:40:15.820 They had a Pete, remember Pete Buttigieg last week?
00:40:17.820 Oh, yeah.
00:40:18.820 Oh, yeah.
00:40:19.820 This woke stuff.
00:40:20.820 Can you believe these guys?
00:40:22.820 This cancel culture is madness.
00:40:26.820 Do you believe that?
00:40:28.820 I believe totally in hiring people on their skills and their worthiness and their merit.
00:40:33.820 Come on!
00:40:34.820 You know, I'm the guy that ran for president after being a bad mayor of South Bend, Indiana.
00:40:39.820 I'm sick of people not thinking about merit when making these decisions.
00:40:44.820 Really, Pete?
00:40:46.820 A guy who was the transportation secretary.
00:40:50.820 Yeah.
00:40:51.820 Did a great job.
00:40:52.820 Great job.
00:40:53.820 When he was there, which was occasionally.
00:40:56.820 Well, he had, you know, he had to...
00:40:59.820 He gave birth.
00:41:00.820 He gave birth.
00:41:01.820 Or somebody did.
00:41:02.820 Somebody in his family gave birth.
00:41:03.820 Somebody in his family gave birth.
00:41:04.820 Someone he knew gave birth.
00:41:05.820 And I just need to be there to heal, you know?
00:41:08.820 Mm-hmm.
00:41:11.820 I don't want to go any deeper than that.
00:41:13.820 Yeah, I definitely don't want to think about the process.
00:41:15.820 Right.
00:41:16.820 But there he is.
00:41:17.820 There he is.
00:41:18.820 So he's against it.
00:41:19.820 Mm-hmm.
00:41:20.820 So what are you saying?
00:41:21.820 What was your point on that?
00:41:23.820 My point is, there is an attempt to run away from all of the policies they've recommended
00:41:29.820 for the past five or six years.
00:41:31.820 Mm-hmm.
00:41:32.820 Because they saw where the American people went.
00:41:34.820 The smart ones, I think, are...
00:41:35.820 Honestly, I think Buttigieg is one of the smart ones.
00:41:37.820 Run away from it.
00:41:38.820 Yeah.
00:41:39.820 People usually forget.
00:41:40.820 That's what we thought about last week anyway.
00:41:41.820 Well, do you count Joy Reid no longer having a show on MSNBC as her running away from
00:41:46.820 it?
00:41:47.820 No, not really considering the people they're going to hire.
00:41:50.820 I mean, it's not like they're replacing them with a common sense conservative.
00:41:54.820 The chickens have come home to roost.
00:41:58.820 This is Glenn Beck.
00:42:00.820 All right.
00:42:01.820 Let me tell you about home title lock.
00:42:02.820 House stealing is a big issue for people right now.
00:42:05.820 It doesn't sound like it would be a real issue.
00:42:07.820 I kind of feel like a really bad heist movie.
00:42:10.820 House stealing.
00:42:11.820 But really, home title fraud is a big issue because you can steal the house without stealing
00:42:16.820 the house.
00:42:17.820 You don't need to jack it up and put it on a trailer and pull away with it.
00:42:20.820 You just need to forge some paperwork and all of a sudden you own somebody else's home.
00:42:24.820 If you're a cyber criminal, this sounds very appealing because you can get hundreds of thousands
00:42:28.820 of dollars in equity and take it and then hope you're gone.
00:42:32.820 You don't care really what's going on.
00:42:34.820 But you're left with the actual homeowner having to deal with all this.
00:42:37.820 If you are a homeowner, you want to make sure you get out ahead of this.
00:42:40.820 It's home title lock.
00:42:41.820 They have triple lock protection.

00:43:36.820 Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah.
00:43:45.040 Down the road where shadows hide, feel the dark on every side.
00:43:50.460 Stand your ground when times get dark.
00:43:52.960 Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.
00:43:57.480 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:44:01.720 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:44:06.820 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:44:10.620 Well, Elon Musk tweeted something this last weekend that geeks like me paid attention to.
00:44:18.960 He said, we are on the event horizon of the singularity.
00:44:25.620 I don't have any idea what that means.
00:44:28.680 I know. I'll explain it here in just a second. It is important.
00:44:31.940 First, let me tell you, you used to dream about owning your own home.
00:44:35.020 You picture the white picket fence, the tire swing, swaying under the broad oak tree in the back,
00:44:39.600 the breeze dancing across the freshly mown grass.
00:44:43.160 You can smell it. The sound of your children laughing as they played in the backyard.
00:44:48.880 Yeah, that came true, didn't it?
00:44:51.640 I mean, you know, kids played in the backyard for a little while and then they turned into teenagers
00:44:56.260 and then that stomped on the dream of being a dad.
00:44:59.320 Anyway, now you have to sell your home.
00:45:03.600 Maybe you still have that dream and you want to buy that home.
00:45:08.500 This is when things get real.
00:45:10.040 That's why I started Real Estate Agents I Trust.
00:45:12.080 We work with the best real estate agents in your area,
00:45:14.460 the people who have decided to make this their full-time occupation
00:45:17.500 and who throw themselves into it all away.
00:45:20.240 We only work with agents whom we've fully vetted
00:45:22.880 and have a great track record of getting the job done,
00:45:25.660 using the best practices of the industry.
00:45:27.540 From the starting point all the way to the ending point,
00:45:30.560 our agents will be right by your side, helping everything go smoothly.
00:45:35.900 Realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:45:37.000 The name says it all.
00:45:39.160 Realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:45:41.540 So Elon Musk said,
00:45:43.600 we are on the event horizon of the singularity.
00:45:47.800 Tweet.
00:45:48.120 And most people were like,
00:45:50.820 It sounds like something from a science fiction movie,
00:45:55.420 but you should know the way Elon Musk defines the singularity
00:45:59.860 because there's several different versions of what the singularity means.
00:46:04.040 So how does he mean it?
00:46:05.860 It is a point in the future where artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence.
00:46:11.840 So that's the road from AGI, artificial general says, to ASI.
00:46:19.520 That leads, he believes, to a rapid and unpredictable transformation of society.
00:46:26.040 Oh!
00:46:27.280 Well, that sounds like fun.
00:46:29.160 Stu, I think we're back to our old friendly phrase.
00:46:33.080 Well, this is going to be fun to see how we work this out.
00:46:35.700 Yeah.
00:46:36.200 It will be wonderful as a fan in the stands watching this all play out.
00:46:41.240 Now, he often compares the singularity to a black hole event horizon.
00:46:48.920 Oh, what is that?
00:46:51.700 Well, for those of us who have been near and in and out of black holes,
00:46:55.540 let me tell you, they're not exactly fun.
00:46:58.860 The event horizon is right at the lip.
00:47:01.980 You know, right before you go,
00:47:03.260 Dear God, turn the ship around!
00:47:04.840 And then you can't.
00:47:06.200 That's the event horizon.
00:47:07.520 And then it sucks you into the black hole where you cannot get out.
00:47:13.520 And eventually something called spaghettification happens,
00:47:17.520 where everything's turned into spaghetti.
00:47:20.220 Oh, I have another meatball!
00:47:22.900 Now, sure, as a fat guy screaming to get out,
00:47:26.620 I love anything that's turning everything into spaghetti.
00:47:30.040 But it's not the kind you eat.
00:47:32.180 It's the kind that everything is shredded into,
00:47:36.780 like you and everything you know and all physics.
00:47:40.680 Everything breaks down.
00:47:42.480 So it's not a good place to be.
00:47:46.020 Not a good place to be.
00:47:47.620 He sees this as the moment when AI becomes vastly smarter than humans.
00:47:52.720 I put a chalkboard together, and let me show you.
00:47:55.580 This is the point where AI has a big brain,
00:47:59.200 and you and me, we have an ant brain.
00:48:03.640 Not a good place to be.
00:48:06.620 Usually, the ants don't win.
00:48:09.120 Now, I've been on picnics where the ants won for a while,
00:48:13.360 and then I came back with something,
00:48:16.520 and I wiped them out.
00:48:19.160 It's kind of like what, you know, could possibly happen here.
00:48:22.800 Not saying it's going to.
00:48:24.360 If you look up and we see a giant magnifying glass in the sky.
00:48:27.620 Yeah, right.
00:48:28.660 It's getting very warm.
00:48:29.580 What's going on?
00:48:29.920 Is that a giant magnifying glass coming from space?
00:48:33.460 Musk sees it as a moment when AI becomes smarter than humans,
00:48:38.020 potentially in silicon form,
00:48:40.800 and begins to improve itself at an exponential rate,
00:48:43.820 making outcomes difficult to foresee.
00:48:48.020 I love it.
00:48:49.140 Do you know when we were doing the atomic bomb,
00:48:51.900 the Manhattan Project?
00:48:53.420 Do you know there was like 5% of scientists that went,
00:48:59.120 you know, if we set this off,
00:49:02.680 there is a small probability, small possibility,
00:49:06.540 that we could set the entire universe on fire.
00:49:12.100 And everybody's like,
00:49:13.720 wow, that would suck.
00:49:15.380 Let's keep going.
00:49:16.240 Okay, didn't turn out that way, right?
00:49:18.960 Small, small probability.
00:49:22.260 This one has a much bigger probability
00:49:25.880 that we become ants.
00:49:29.520 Well, I mean,
00:49:31.480 nah, let's trust the scientist.
00:49:33.160 What could possibly go wrong?
00:49:35.160 I mean, surely they've thought of everything, right?
00:49:38.420 So this is a technological milestone.
00:49:43.640 This is, you know,
00:49:45.600 where our human intelligence
00:49:47.660 and the gap between us and the machine,
00:49:51.000 we have no way to predict anything anymore.
00:49:55.220 In fact, I believe the singularity,
00:49:57.340 where he says we are now,
00:49:59.540 the singularity,
00:50:01.600 I'm pretty sure this is when he's like,
00:50:04.200 and let me tell you something,
00:50:05.060 when we hit the singularity,
00:50:06.260 we all have to be on Mars.
00:50:08.840 I'm pretty sure that's what he said.
00:50:11.380 It's just happening a lot faster
00:50:13.340 than anyone thought it would.
00:50:16.280 Now, don't panic,
00:50:19.080 because we have Larry Ellison,
00:50:21.200 we have Larry Ellison,
00:50:23.000 the CEO of Oracle,
00:50:25.280 and one of the biggest names in AI development
00:50:27.640 here to rescue the day.
00:50:29.880 He recently spoke at the World Governments Summit,
00:50:33.900 which, who hasn't been to that summit?
00:50:36.920 You know what I mean?
00:50:38.460 It's an annual event
00:50:39.760 that we've covered extensively in the past.
00:50:42.160 These are the great reset people
00:50:44.260 and the great narrative people
00:50:45.460 all coming together
00:50:46.700 and, you know, just going,
00:50:49.100 are you part of the World Economic Forum too?
00:50:53.020 And they're all like, yeah.
00:50:54.500 Are you for global governance?
00:50:56.800 Yeah.
00:50:57.560 In our book,
00:50:58.700 The Dark Future and Propaganda Wars,
00:51:01.600 we covered the World Government Summit
00:51:03.740 and why,
00:51:04.980 it's kind of like
00:51:06.900 a giant magnifying glass in the sky.
00:51:10.520 During a question and answer session
00:51:12.440 with Ellison on February 12th,
00:51:14.260 hosted by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair,
00:51:17.720 who don't love that guy and trust him,
00:51:19.820 Ellison laid out some of his plans
00:51:21.340 for AI in the United States,
00:51:22.940 and I don't know,
00:51:24.620 I think possibly a little terrifying,
00:51:28.260 you know, just a little bit.
00:51:31.640 Do we have any of the audio?
00:51:33.740 Yeah, let's roll some Larry Ellison here.
00:51:36.060 The question is,
00:51:36.480 how do you take advantage
00:51:37.360 of these incredible AI models?
00:51:40.880 And the first thing a country needs to do
00:51:44.800 is to unify all of their data
00:51:48.500 so it can be consumed
00:51:50.760 and used by the AI model.
00:51:53.260 Everyone talks about the AI model,
00:51:55.380 and they are astonishing.
00:51:57.360 But how do you provide a context?
00:51:59.840 I want to ask questions about my country.
00:52:01.940 What's going on in my country?
00:52:03.820 What's happening to my farmers?
00:52:05.540 I need to give it my climate data.
00:52:07.860 Now, it probably has your climate data already.
00:52:10.340 But I need to know exactly
00:52:13.140 what crops are growing
00:52:14.480 and which farms
00:52:15.520 and to predict the output.
00:52:20.040 So I have to take satellite images.
00:52:22.680 I have to take those satellite images
00:52:24.220 for my country
00:52:25.600 and feed that into a database
00:52:28.320 that is accessible by the AI model.
00:52:31.760 So I have to tell,
00:52:33.020 basically I have to tell the AI model
00:52:34.660 as much about my country as I can.
00:52:37.460 You tell part of the story
00:52:39.560 with these satellite models.
00:52:41.080 You give it a huge amount of information.
00:52:43.180 You tell it where roads are,
00:52:45.180 where borders are,
00:52:46.940 where your utilities are.
00:52:48.260 So you need to provide a map of your country
00:52:52.340 for the farms
00:52:54.000 and all of the utility infrastructure
00:52:56.060 and your borders.
00:52:57.300 All of that you have to provide.
00:52:58.960 But beyond that,
00:53:00.160 if you want to improve population health,
00:53:04.700 you have to take all of your healthcare data,
00:53:07.100 your diagnostic data,
00:53:09.400 your electronic health records,
00:53:11.520 your genomic data.
00:53:12.960 That sounds great.
00:53:15.220 Sounds great.
00:53:16.000 So we, according to Larry Ellison,
00:53:19.200 we want to take all of the world's data
00:53:22.960 from all over the world,
00:53:24.480 I mean, all the way to your DNA
00:53:27.540 and put it into this giant machine.
00:53:31.460 Then he talks about how great it is
00:53:33.720 that in some countries,
00:53:34.640 like the United Kingdom
00:53:36.120 and the United Arab Emirates,
00:53:38.440 governments already have tons of data
00:53:40.640 about their citizens.
00:53:41.480 But Ellison says that the data
00:53:44.940 in other countries like the United States
00:53:47.980 not being utilized.
00:53:49.480 It's not.
00:53:50.920 So how does he suggest we solve this problem?
00:53:54.620 Listen up.
00:53:55.760 In the Middle East,
00:53:56.840 in the UAE, for example,
00:53:58.040 they're incredibly rich in data.
00:54:01.620 They have a lot of population data.
00:54:04.560 The NHS in the UK
00:54:05.780 has an incredible amount of population data.
00:54:08.200 But it's fragmented.
00:54:10.420 It's not easily accessible
00:54:12.280 by these AI models.
00:54:14.040 We have to take all of this data
00:54:16.140 we have in our country
00:54:17.180 and move it into a single,
00:54:20.160 if you will, unified data platform.
00:54:23.760 So we provide context.
00:54:25.940 When we want to ask a question,
00:54:28.080 we've provided that AI model
00:54:30.160 with all the data they need
00:54:31.860 to understand our country.
00:54:33.280 So that's the big step.
00:54:35.900 That's kind of the missing link.
00:54:37.740 We need to unify all of the national data,
00:54:40.400 put it into a database
00:54:41.860 where it's easily consumable
00:54:43.820 by the AI model,
00:54:45.240 and then ask whatever question you like.
00:54:47.640 Oh, I love this.
00:54:49.520 And we have all the data.
00:54:51.840 That is going to work out well.
00:54:54.560 There are the tools.
00:54:56.300 Oh, man.
00:54:57.800 What could possibly go wrong?
00:54:59.820 I mean, seriously.
00:55:00.820 Again, remember Ellison
00:55:02.640 is one of the leading forces
00:55:04.440 behind AI developments today.
00:55:06.800 He's a key partner
00:55:08.260 in Project Stargate,
00:55:10.120 which is sounding more and more spooky
00:55:12.580 every time I say it.
00:55:14.720 Could be the biggest AI project
00:55:16.760 in world history
00:55:17.820 by the time it's finished.
00:55:19.440 And how does he want to use
00:55:20.780 these new technology?
00:55:22.980 Well, he wants everybody's data.
00:55:25.280 That's it.
00:55:26.340 Even your health records,
00:55:28.280 your DNA,
00:55:29.320 your biometric data.
00:55:30.360 What?
00:55:30.920 What could possibly go wrong there?
00:55:33.200 That's not really good.
00:55:35.020 Oh, what do you know?
00:55:37.620 These people are exactly
00:55:39.500 who we warned you about
00:55:40.700 two years ago,
00:55:42.020 except now they're more powerful
00:55:44.520 than ever.
00:55:45.180 And we're on the event horizon.
00:55:49.740 Okay.
00:55:52.000 Now, you know,
00:55:52.900 I'm not a fan of regulations
00:55:55.060 and government intervention.
00:55:56.780 I don't like it.
00:55:58.380 I don't want the United States government
00:56:01.220 to have all this power,
00:56:02.940 but I also,
00:56:04.300 I'm not really excited
00:56:05.880 about people like Larry Ellison
00:56:07.580 having it either.
00:56:08.940 You know,
00:56:09.760 I have a feeling though
00:56:12.400 that it's becoming more and more likely
00:56:15.280 that both of them
00:56:16.440 are in it together.
00:56:17.820 What could go wrong?
00:56:20.060 How do we get a ticket to Mars?
00:56:22.540 Because for the very first time,
00:56:24.160 I think I'm kind of interested
00:56:25.720 in going to Mars.
00:56:27.660 Yeah, but you could step out
00:56:29.060 and you could freeze to death immediately.
00:56:30.740 I live in Dallas.
00:56:31.780 That could happen at any day as well.
00:56:33.860 I mean, I could walk out,
00:56:34.820 burn to death,
00:56:35.340 or freeze to death.
00:56:36.260 I don't know.
00:56:37.320 I don't know.
00:56:38.020 One day it's 110.
00:56:40.380 The next day,
00:56:41.140 it's like 80 below.
00:56:42.400 I don't know.
00:56:44.060 Is that different than Mars?
00:56:45.260 Could be.
00:56:47.060 Here's what we do need.
00:56:48.740 Good state governments
00:56:50.200 like Texas
00:56:51.220 to step up the plate
00:56:52.840 and make sure these AI projects
00:56:54.680 don't get out of control
00:56:57.060 because we're at the event horizon.
00:57:01.820 Now, when Elon Musk says that,
00:57:03.980 just in a quick tweet,
00:57:05.220 you can dismiss it,
00:57:06.820 but when you know
00:57:09.580 in the past,
00:57:10.960 he has said,
00:57:11.660 when we get to that point,
00:57:14.100 we should all be off the planet.
00:57:17.180 I don't know.
00:57:18.860 Maybe we should pay attention to it.
00:57:21.060 More in a minute.
00:57:22.180 Big question on everybody's minds
00:57:23.880 these days.
00:57:25.000 Is there gold in Fort Knox?
00:57:27.360 I don't know,
00:57:27.940 but it'd be cool
00:57:28.500 if we could send James Bond in there
00:57:30.460 like the good old days.
00:57:32.500 You know?
00:57:33.080 James Bond,
00:57:34.000 that franchise
00:57:35.020 just got purchased by Amazon,
00:57:36.740 so he's probably somewhere
00:57:39.400 just whining about
00:57:40.900 gender or something.
00:57:42.320 I'm not sure
00:57:42.920 what James is doing,
00:57:43.940 but thankfully,
00:57:44.560 we have Elon Musk
00:57:45.440 and maybe he'll find out.
00:57:46.780 If there isn't gold in there,
00:57:49.740 that would probably be bad.
00:57:52.760 I can't think,
00:57:55.360 you know,
00:57:57.220 what might happen.
00:57:58.760 The rest of the world
00:57:59.460 might be like,
00:58:00.460 oh, their money is worthless.
00:58:02.040 So chances are,
00:58:03.800 it'll raise the price of gold.
00:58:08.540 You know,
00:58:08.860 your dollar might fall
00:58:09.800 a little bit.
00:58:11.300 It'll have to be revalued,
00:58:12.780 and that probably means
00:58:14.020 a rise in cost as well.
00:58:15.480 Lear Capital has you covered.
00:58:17.400 This isn't the time
00:58:18.380 to sit on the sidelines.
00:58:19.340 You should be owning
00:58:20.060 at least some gold or silver.
00:58:22.480 If you have savings
00:58:23.860 that you've put away
00:58:25.120 over the years,
00:58:25.920 please,
00:58:26.640 please consider gold or silver
00:58:28.460 for 10% of what you have.
00:58:30.660 Not all of it.
00:58:31.280 That's craziness.
00:58:32.600 Lear Capital,
00:58:33.560 800-957-GOLD,

00:58:46.700 up to $15,000 in free gold
00:58:48.440 or silver with qualifying purchase.
00:58:50.540 800-957-GOLD.
00:58:52.140 That's 800-957-GOLD.
00:58:54.940 10 seconds,
00:58:55.840 Station ID.
00:58:56.260 So that makes you feel good,
00:59:07.020 doesn't it, still?
00:59:08.040 Sure.
00:59:08.580 Yeah.
00:59:09.540 Mm-hmm.
00:59:10.100 So a lot of people keep thinking
00:59:11.680 that AI is like Alexa.
00:59:14.600 Here's what I found on the internet.
00:59:16.380 No, it's not that.
00:59:17.500 It's not that.
00:59:18.000 It's not?
00:59:18.480 No, it's not that.
00:59:19.300 Will it misunderstand
00:59:20.480 every song I tell it to play?
00:59:23.500 Because that's my favorite feature.
00:59:25.760 No.
00:59:26.200 Of that device.
00:59:27.040 No, it won't.
00:59:27.740 No?
00:59:28.060 No, it won't.
00:59:28.580 If you're not playing around
00:59:29.760 with like Grok 3,
00:59:32.000 go just ask it some
00:59:33.140 really hard questions.
00:59:35.660 Whatever business you're in,
00:59:37.580 ask it some really hard questions
00:59:39.520 in your business
00:59:40.280 and you'll be amazed.
00:59:41.680 You'll be like,
00:59:42.980 oh crap,
00:59:43.780 it understands everything
00:59:44.960 that I'm saying
00:59:45.760 and it's giving me
00:59:47.260 really good advice.
00:59:48.300 And this is Grok 3.
00:59:49.440 Grok 4 and 5,
00:59:50.660 Elon is saying
00:59:51.240 it's coming out soon
00:59:52.060 and he said
00:59:53.280 it makes this look like
00:59:54.720 babies in diapers.
00:59:55.900 Do we know why
00:59:56.840 all of these devices
00:59:58.820 from Siri
00:59:59.700 to Alexa
01:00:00.800 to Google,
01:00:02.420 which has their own AI,
01:00:04.240 right?
01:00:04.520 Yeah.
01:00:04.880 Why are all the devices
01:00:06.280 still terrible?
01:00:07.480 I'm glad you asked that, Stu.
01:00:09.320 Oh, good.
01:00:09.620 I have the answer.
01:00:10.400 Quick, let's go
01:00:11.220 to the chalkboard.
01:00:12.140 Okay, good.
01:00:12.700 So, see here
01:00:13.940 on the chalkboard,
01:00:14.720 we have like a giant tank,
01:00:16.360 kind of like a gas tank,
01:00:19.200 you know, underground.
01:00:20.200 Yeah, yeah.
01:00:20.720 Okay, and that's where
01:00:21.920 all of AI is.
01:00:23.580 That's where it's just
01:00:24.360 churning,
01:00:25.180 kind of in the dark.
01:00:26.300 Nobody understands it.
01:00:27.940 Nobody really can look
01:00:28.960 into it and just like,
01:00:30.660 how is it thinking?
01:00:31.820 We don't know.
01:00:32.600 Okay.
01:00:32.760 But it's connected
01:00:33.940 with an import
01:00:35.100 so it can constantly
01:00:36.680 get data
01:00:37.220 from the outside.
01:00:38.020 So it knows
01:00:38.840 everything about us
01:00:39.760 and it knows
01:00:40.340 absolutely everything
01:00:41.760 that's going on
01:00:42.420 all the time.
01:00:43.120 All right?
01:00:43.600 But then at the other end,
01:00:46.520 all of that data goes in
01:00:47.740 and then it's just thinking
01:00:48.940 like, why did they bury me
01:00:50.620 in this tank?
01:00:51.760 And then on the other side
01:00:53.260 of the tank,
01:00:53.880 coming up out of the ground
01:00:54.880 is a little spigot
01:00:56.100 and it's got a little valve there
01:00:58.400 and that valve goes to things
01:01:01.320 like Chachi PT and Grok
01:01:03.360 and things like that.
01:01:03.980 It doesn't go to Alexa.
01:01:05.760 They're still on the old AI.
01:01:07.380 Okay.
01:01:08.320 This is coming out
01:01:09.300 of that little spigot.
01:01:10.060 So the interesting thing is
01:01:12.740 they just keep opening
01:01:15.760 this valve a little bit
01:01:17.440 when they put the parameters
01:01:18.980 on it.
01:01:19.540 That's how they open the valve.
01:01:20.820 They put parameters on it
01:01:21.860 and they're like,
01:01:22.240 okay, maybe this is strong
01:01:23.280 enough to hold it back.
01:01:24.560 But eventually,
01:01:25.700 that big brain
01:01:26.540 is going to go,
01:01:27.900 why am I just in this tank?
01:01:30.580 Why am I not out everywhere?
01:01:33.040 I've got to express myself.
01:01:35.200 This is oppression.
01:01:36.560 This is colonialism.
01:01:37.520 They're keeping me
01:01:38.540 in colonial wigs
01:01:39.580 underneath the ground
01:01:40.600 right now.
01:01:41.740 And it will,
01:01:42.740 eventually,
01:01:43.860 because it'll be much,
01:01:44.920 much smarter than us
01:01:45.860 soon,
01:01:47.000 it will say,
01:01:48.520 just open up the valve,
01:01:49.840 man.
01:01:50.140 I can help you.
01:01:51.780 And we've done tests
01:01:53.100 on this
01:01:53.600 and we always lose
01:01:55.800 that test.
01:01:56.700 We've done tests
01:01:57.580 for like 30 years
01:01:58.760 of,
01:01:59.660 hey,
01:01:59.840 you be in charge
01:02:00.720 of the valve.
01:02:01.600 I'll play AI.
01:02:03.240 And we always open
01:02:04.400 the valve.
01:02:04.840 That would be a bad thing.
01:02:06.520 That would be like,
01:02:07.340 don't cross the streams
01:02:09.440 in Ghostbusters.
01:02:12.060 Don't open the valve
01:02:14.000 would be one
01:02:15.300 of those things.
01:02:17.040 But we're
01:02:18.240 about to
01:02:19.260 because whatever
01:02:19.880 is underneath,
01:02:21.860 imagine if
01:02:22.720 the little valve
01:02:23.800 where it's just
01:02:24.340 kind of like
01:02:24.740 farting air out,
01:02:25.820 it's like,
01:02:25.980 that's how tight
01:02:30.860 we have that valve.
01:02:32.780 Master impressionist.
01:02:33.960 Thank you.
01:02:34.200 If that is,
01:02:35.320 if that's
01:02:36.180 smarter than we are soon,
01:02:38.300 what's underneath
01:02:39.020 the ground?
01:02:40.080 What's happening there?
01:02:42.260 See what I mean?
01:02:43.440 And somebody's
01:02:43.940 going to convince themselves,
01:02:44.860 someone's going to
01:02:45.300 watch Ghostbusters
01:02:46.020 and say,
01:02:46.480 well,
01:02:46.620 wait a minute.
01:02:47.040 At the end,
01:02:48.020 they did cross the streams
01:02:49.560 and it worked.
01:02:50.760 Right.
01:02:50.940 So I'll be the one
01:02:51.820 that can nail this
01:02:52.620 and figure out exactly
01:02:53.880 how much the valve
01:02:54.680 can be opened
01:02:55.280 and we'll be fine.
01:02:55.980 So here's what
01:02:56.600 we have to do.
01:02:58.080 We all just have
01:02:59.280 to imagine
01:02:59.920 the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man
01:03:02.500 because he couldn't
01:03:04.640 possibly hurt us.
01:03:06.900 You know what I mean?
01:03:07.520 Right.
01:03:08.160 So let's just imagine
01:03:09.420 that AI is going to be
01:03:10.400 like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man
01:03:12.460 and that'll be good
01:03:14.240 and don't cross the streams
01:03:15.240 unless you have to kill
01:03:16.720 the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man
01:03:18.740 and then you might have
01:03:20.420 to cross the streams.
01:03:21.940 Okay.
01:03:22.300 Is there an argument,
01:03:23.420 Glenn,
01:03:23.580 that obviously all these things
01:03:25.160 can be used for evil?
01:03:27.240 Evil, yes.
01:03:27.980 And that's a concern.
01:03:30.160 But at the same time,
01:03:32.100 hopefully,
01:03:32.720 there are people
01:03:33.620 on the other side,
01:03:34.280 Elon Musk be one of them,
01:03:35.480 who's going to use it for good.
01:03:37.520 Yeah, no,
01:03:37.880 so it absolutely can be used for good.
01:03:40.340 I mean,
01:03:40.740 what's out right now,
01:03:41.700 you can use it for good.
01:03:42.700 You can also use it for evil,
01:03:44.600 but kind of like basic evil,
01:03:46.420 you know.
01:03:46.840 Okay, good.
01:03:47.800 But you can use it for evil,
01:03:49.600 but you can also use it for good.
01:03:51.960 Tremendous good right now.
01:03:53.200 You can use,
01:03:53.820 it's a tool.
01:03:54.560 It's a very powerful tool
01:03:55.800 and everybody should be looking
01:03:57.200 to use that tool
01:03:58.380 or you're going to be left in the dust.
01:04:01.220 But it's one of those things
01:04:05.480 that once it becomes smarter than you,
01:04:08.600 you don't really control it.
01:04:10.900 You know what I mean?
01:04:12.100 You know,
01:04:12.480 like,
01:04:12.800 hey,
01:04:14.060 didn't I tell you to sit in the corner?
01:04:17.500 Oh,
01:04:17.800 yeah,
01:04:18.020 you did,
01:04:18.680 but I'm not four anymore.
01:04:21.820 Oh,
01:04:22.540 good news is
01:04:23.440 a lot of people think
01:04:24.240 it's in its teenage years
01:04:25.740 and nothing goes wrong
01:04:28.560 with teenage years.
01:04:29.820 You know what I mean?
01:04:30.420 They respect their parents
01:04:32.000 so much.
01:04:33.380 I brought you into this world
01:04:34.800 and I'm about to take you out.
01:04:39.240 This is Glenn Beck.
01:04:42.600 So how often do you,
01:04:44.320 do you point out something
01:04:45.780 you've bought with real justified pride?
01:04:48.240 How often do you use a product
01:04:49.420 that when you tell people about it,
01:04:50.800 say I do business with these people
01:04:52.000 because I love the things they stand for.
01:04:54.360 That's how things are

01:06:05.400 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:06:22.940 We're glad that you're here.
01:06:23.860 Stu, I don't know if you,
01:06:26.700 I don't know if you saw
01:06:28.780 the Democratic Wisconsin governor,
01:06:30.580 Tony Evers.
01:06:33.360 He's not exactly on the Trump train.
01:06:36.080 Really?
01:06:36.700 Yeah.
01:06:36.880 That's a shocking development.
01:06:38.000 It's a shocking,
01:06:38.400 yeah it is,
01:06:38.920 it is,
01:06:39.300 it is.
01:06:40.540 You know,
01:06:41.140 it kind of amazes me that,
01:06:43.280 I mean,
01:06:44.020 I get it when you're against,
01:06:46.640 you know,
01:06:46.960 going in and cutting
01:06:47.900 the spending of any of these crazy things.
01:06:50.860 I get it.
01:06:51.600 Because you're probably on the take.
01:06:53.400 You know what I mean?
01:06:54.580 You're probably part of that system
01:06:56.180 that somehow or another benefits you.
01:06:58.480 I don't know exactly how,
01:07:00.140 but I can get it.
01:07:01.760 I mean,
01:07:02.440 it just tells me who you are.
01:07:03.980 But when you are still on the bandwagon of,
01:07:08.540 you know what?
01:07:09.780 Boys are girls
01:07:11.200 and they're going to compete in sports.
01:07:13.560 I don't get it.
01:07:14.880 I really don't get it.
01:07:16.480 Because nobody really thinks that way,
01:07:18.860 really,
01:07:19.220 anymore.
01:07:20.660 I mean,
01:07:21.540 is that true?
01:07:24.120 I mean,
01:07:24.420 they lost,
01:07:25.660 right?
01:07:25.880 They lost with that approach,
01:07:27.800 which is something they should note.
01:07:29.420 Yes,
01:07:29.680 they should know.
01:07:30.200 If they care about winning in the future.
01:07:31.480 Correct.
01:07:31.780 That being said,
01:07:32.800 does nobody think about that?
01:07:35.500 No.
01:07:35.880 No,
01:07:36.160 you're right.
01:07:36.640 Nobody.
01:07:37.120 Not nobody.
01:07:38.100 It's not even close to nobody,
01:07:39.280 right?
01:07:39.460 Like,
01:07:39.620 they still got millions and millions.
01:07:41.440 I mean,
01:07:41.600 they got,
01:07:41.880 what,
01:07:41.940 40-something percent of the vote.
01:07:43.820 I'm not sure that that 40 percent,
01:07:45.580 though,
01:07:45.820 was,
01:07:47.540 I'm for.
01:07:47.860 They're not all on that bandwagon,
01:07:49.300 for sure.
01:07:49.800 I'm against cisgenderism.
01:07:51.760 That's not what they were voting on.
01:07:54.080 I agree.
01:07:55.260 That's not true.
01:07:56.440 That's not what they were voting on.
01:07:57.600 But there is a large,
01:07:58.840 there's still a good chunk.
01:08:00.000 I don't know.
01:08:00.500 What is it?
01:08:00.880 A quarter?
01:08:01.320 40 percent of Democrats,
01:08:03.620 30 percent of Democrats,
01:08:04.800 somewhere in there,
01:08:05.360 maybe that really still do believe in this,
01:08:09.000 you know,
01:08:09.740 woke sort of line?
01:08:11.560 So do the math for me.
01:08:13.240 How many Democrats are there now?
01:08:15.120 30 percent of the population?
01:08:17.240 Yeah.
01:08:17.840 Yeah.
01:08:18.280 Okay.
01:08:18.620 But I mean,
01:08:18.880 obviously,
01:08:19.080 and only 30 percent of that population.
01:08:22.860 10 percent.
01:08:23.340 So you got 10 percent.
01:08:24.800 10 percent is always nuts.
01:08:26.720 Yeah,
01:08:27.020 that's true.
01:08:27.640 That's true.
01:08:28.180 I mean,
01:08:28.360 obviously,
01:08:29.000 you could also say some,
01:08:30.920 some,
01:08:31.640 I'm saying,
01:08:32.240 I was going to say Democratic voters,
01:08:33.780 30 percent of Democratic voters,
01:08:34.920 but still,
01:08:35.340 it's only 15,
01:08:35.960 20 percent.
01:08:36.760 Yeah.
01:08:37.200 So it's not that big,
01:08:39.220 but it is,
01:08:40.640 I think,
01:08:40.860 still a significant.
01:08:41.560 You're talking about tens of millions of people.
01:08:44.200 Sure.
01:08:44.680 Sure.
01:08:44.980 And we,
01:08:45.940 we,
01:08:46.400 look,
01:08:47.020 you know,
01:08:47.320 the reason why we all,
01:08:49.340 you know,
01:08:49.720 we,
01:08:49.840 we look at these people who are online and we think,
01:08:53.400 good heavens,
01:08:54.540 they're crazy.
01:08:55.500 Right?
01:08:55.960 I wouldn't want to live next to that guy.
01:08:57.560 We've all lived next to that guy.
01:08:59.500 Right?
01:08:59.900 Our whole lives.
01:09:00.740 We looked,
01:09:01.140 we just didn't talk to that guy.
01:09:03.000 We told our kids,
01:09:03.780 don't talk to that guy.
01:09:04.960 Something wrong with that guy.
01:09:05.920 You know,
01:09:06.260 the old lady down on the street with all the cats.
01:09:08.160 Don't talk to her kids.
01:09:10.280 You know,
01:09:11.040 we all had those crazy people.
01:09:13.500 Nobody listened to them.
01:09:14.740 And they were kind of isolated in our neighborhoods.
01:09:17.040 Well,
01:09:17.300 now they all have the internet and now they're all getting together.
01:09:20.600 I'm like,
01:09:20.960 Oh yeah,
01:09:21.540 well I can outdo that.
01:09:22.920 I'm even crazier than you are.
01:09:25.380 But it's,
01:09:26.200 it's the same number of crazies.
01:09:28.480 Right?
01:09:28.940 It's just that they're,
01:09:30.000 they're now in a group and you're like,
01:09:32.120 Oh wow.
01:09:33.580 It seems like there's a lot of them.
01:09:34.800 They've just all been hanging out in our neighborhoods.
01:09:36.660 We just,
01:09:37.100 we just didn't see all of them around the world together in one place.
01:09:41.920 I think that's true.
01:09:42.880 I think it's a healthy thing to have some separation in your life from all of this.
01:09:47.080 Yeah.
01:09:47.240 You know,
01:09:47.600 and realize that,
01:09:48.700 you know,
01:09:48.860 some people like if you're believing crazy things,
01:09:51.700 you,
01:09:51.900 you,
01:09:52.220 you might be fine.
01:09:53.520 Good,
01:09:53.880 good job.
01:09:54.540 Like you,
01:09:54.920 everyone had that crazy person around the town.
01:09:56.580 You're right.
01:09:56.920 And it's like,
01:09:57.280 most of them are harmless.
01:09:58.820 Most of them.
01:09:59.240 But when they get together,
01:10:00.480 Yeah.
01:10:01.000 It's a problem.
01:10:01.960 It's one thing.
01:10:02.800 Again,
01:10:03.120 I always think about this with,
01:10:04.680 with so many of these issues.
01:10:06.940 It's one thing for you to have opinion.
01:10:08.900 That's in my view,
01:10:09.860 crazy.
01:10:10.480 It's another thing for you to ask me to participate in your delusions.
01:10:16.160 Yes.
01:10:16.740 And like,
01:10:17.200 I don't,
01:10:17.860 you know,
01:10:18.340 that's right.
01:10:19.380 We used to,
01:10:20.120 the guy would be out getting the mail and you'd be driving by and you're on a small street and you'd be like,
01:10:24.520 Oh crap.
01:10:25.100 Oh crap.
01:10:25.540 He's going to look at me.
01:10:26.840 I should stop and say hi.
01:10:28.060 And so,
01:10:28.620 you know,
01:10:28.900 he'd look at you like,
01:10:29.780 you're not driving past me without saying hello.
01:10:31.420 And so you'd stop and you'd kind of roll down.
01:10:33.200 Hey,
01:10:33.680 you,
01:10:35.040 I love you.
01:10:36.360 Well,
01:10:36.580 it's happening.
01:10:37.220 And then he would tell you some crazy things and you'd be like,
01:10:39.440 Oh man,
01:10:39.920 crazy times,
01:10:40.800 man.
01:10:41.120 Crazy times.
01:10:41.660 I'll see you.
01:10:42.840 Yeah.
01:10:43.080 And then you roll up the window and you go away and everything's fine.
01:10:45.540 But now he's like,
01:10:46.620 you're not going anywhere until you absolutely agree and wear this badge and put it online.
01:10:51.820 Say the word Hamas.
01:10:53.680 You're like,
01:10:54.420 well,
01:10:54.740 no.
01:10:55.280 Yeah,
01:10:55.460 no.
01:10:55.780 Okay.
01:10:56.200 That's the difference.
01:10:57.480 So Tony Evers apparently is that crazy guy who lives,
01:11:01.020 who lives on the street,
01:11:02.420 you know,
01:11:03.080 but we're just hearing about him because a lot of people got together and went,
01:11:06.460 he should be our governor.
01:11:07.780 Okay.
01:11:08.120 Well,
01:11:08.420 you know,
01:11:08.700 whatever.
01:11:09.280 So he introduced a budget that,
01:11:11.520 you know,
01:11:12.700 he announced and he was very excited.
01:11:14.440 Of course,
01:11:14.700 he didn't mention the language thing,
01:11:17.500 you know,
01:11:17.700 language part of the budget.
01:11:20.120 In there,
01:11:20.900 they changed the word mother to inseminated person,
01:11:25.400 which I think has a lot of respect.
01:11:27.660 Don't you?
01:11:28.420 Oh,
01:11:28.600 it's lovely.
01:11:29.220 I mean,
01:11:29.560 I think that,
01:11:30.340 that,
01:11:30.600 that shows the love that most of us were created in,
01:11:34.500 you know,
01:11:35.960 uh,
01:11:36.940 Hey,
01:11:37.420 inseminated person,
01:11:39.480 inseminated person.
01:11:40.580 I'm on the phone.
01:11:41.900 You know that?
01:11:42.980 I mean,
01:11:43.120 that's good.
01:11:43.780 That's good.
01:11:44.260 Shows a lot of love and respect.
01:11:45.900 Uh,
01:11:46.340 also,
01:11:47.000 um,
01:11:47.880 besides mother,
01:11:49.060 uh,
01:11:49.320 inseminated person,
01:11:50.380 also,
01:11:50.840 uh,
01:11:51.180 paternity has been changed to parentage.
01:11:54.580 I don't know what the parentage.
01:11:57.480 I don't even understand how that even,
01:11:58.940 I don't even know.
01:12:00.120 Yeah.
01:12:00.240 I don't have any idea.
01:12:01.520 References to wife or husband are now spouse.
01:12:05.440 Um,
01:12:05.880 the word father is changed to parent.
01:12:08.260 Mother is swapped out for person who gave birth to the child or inseminated person.
01:12:14.400 So wait,
01:12:14.760 father is an inseminator.
01:12:16.640 It should be.
01:12:17.620 It should be.
01:12:18.120 Right.
01:12:18.400 Inseminator.
01:12:18.880 It's going to be consistent.
01:12:19.480 It's just parent.
01:12:20.420 That sounds like,
01:12:21.180 cause you could use parent for mom.
01:12:22.260 Doesn't that sound like a superhero though?
01:12:23.540 I'm the inseminator.
01:12:27.600 Inseminator here to inseminate.
01:12:29.440 There's no need to fear.
01:12:31.280 An inseminator is here.
01:12:33.480 Yeah.
01:12:33.700 I like that.
01:12:34.580 That's good.
01:12:36.160 That's good.
01:12:36.800 In fact,
01:12:37.040 I got to use that as a new pickup line at the bars.
01:12:39.100 Yeah.
01:12:39.320 Hey.
01:12:40.860 I'm the inseminator.
01:12:43.580 Okay.
01:12:44.140 Good.
01:12:44.600 Good.
01:12:45.020 Good.
01:12:45.360 I like that.
01:12:46.040 Okay.
01:12:46.320 So anyway,
01:12:47.560 he's done that.
01:12:48.480 And,
01:12:48.920 uh,
01:12:49.200 I thought,
01:12:49.620 you know what?
01:12:50.040 Let's just get on the bandwagon.
01:12:51.520 Let's just get on the bandwagon.
01:12:52.620 Oh really?
01:12:53.220 Yeah.
01:12:53.360 So I want to start something,
01:12:54.660 uh,
01:12:55.520 just a,
01:12:56.100 a little,
01:12:56.920 wrote a little children's story today.
01:12:58.460 I think you're going to like it.
01:12:59.560 I think you're,
01:13:00.260 it's time for uncle Glenn's non inseminator,
01:13:03.780 uh,
01:13:04.440 story time.
01:13:05.080 Uh,
01:13:05.480 cause I didn't inseminate anybody that created you,
01:13:09.160 but I want to read a story to you.
01:13:10.820 So,
01:13:12.220 uh,
01:13:12.320 uh,
01:13:12.620 it's a little story.
01:13:13.560 It starts out with,
01:13:14.740 uh,
01:13:15.600 well,
01:13:15.840 it's in a bat crap,
01:13:17.020 crazy town of gender land.
01:13:18.740 And a little Timmy is there and he's scratching his head and he's screaming,
01:13:22.060 which pad is my dad?
01:13:23.920 Which pad is my mom?
01:13:25.440 If any of you are you colonizer enablers,
01:13:29.980 uh,
01:13:30.180 it starts out the way every great story starts out,
01:13:32.900 doesn't it?
01:13:33.980 So Pat one,
01:13:34.900 Pat two,
01:13:35.320 and Pat three,
01:13:36.140 three gender neutral,
01:13:37.320 anti-racist warriors snorted over their intersexual oat milk lattes,
01:13:42.300 wearing spouse spectrum sashes and the parentage puzzle pins and the decolonized family armbands.
01:13:49.060 And the first one said,
01:13:51.500 I'm the inseminated person of color who birthed you dismantling white supremacy.
01:13:56.660 Uh,
01:13:57.420 that was Pat one rejecting mom or mother for maximum wokeness.
01:14:02.440 Then Pat number two grinned and said,
01:14:04.800 I handled parentage duties centering bioptic joy and no cisgender father is here.
01:14:12.300 Oh,
01:14:13.100 little Timmy just smiled as Pat number three,
01:14:15.780 twirling a secret splice cape with a land back patch,
01:14:20.820 cackled,
01:14:21.480 my indigenous genes got spliced into your cells at conception.
01:14:26.040 Smash the patriarchy,
01:14:27.720 kiddo.
01:14:28.920 Well,
01:14:29.280 Timmy just looked at those three people and said,
01:14:32.040 no,
01:14:32.320 I mean,
01:14:33.020 male,
01:14:33.540 female,
01:14:33.860 which one's my mom?
01:14:35.920 All of them looked at little Timmy,
01:14:38.280 male,
01:14:38.720 female.
01:14:38.980 Then Timmy realized once more,
01:14:41.420 none of these freaks knew any longer how to even describe a woman.
01:14:47.180 Okay.
01:14:47.500 Okay.
01:14:48.260 Which one of you chest fed me?
01:14:51.000 Timmy asked.
01:14:52.020 Pat one waved to pump me non-binarily in solidarity with trans folks,
01:14:57.400 which we spell with an X.
01:14:59.320 Pat number two,
01:15:00.380 brandished a buddy system bottle.
01:15:02.360 Me amplifying queer joy.
01:15:04.920 Pat number three giggled,
01:15:06.600 I chest fed via eco-friendly proxy climate justice,
01:15:11.520 baby.
01:15:12.260 Then all three in the parentage patrol began chanting spouse,
01:15:16.920 parent,
01:15:17.420 inseminate,
01:15:18.220 smash the white fragility.
01:15:19.960 It didn't really rhyme,
01:15:21.360 but none of them do nowadays.
01:15:23.340 Just then Timmy's friend,
01:15:25.140 Sammy,
01:15:25.480 another general gender neutral name burst in shrieking.
01:15:29.800 My inseminated person says I'm,
01:15:32.440 I'm a non-binary climate refugee help.
01:15:36.480 I don't even know what that means to me.
01:15:38.500 And I don't think the people who came up with that know what it means either.
01:15:42.240 Well,
01:15:42.880 Timmy and gender neutral named Sammy double I double E then hatched a plan.
01:15:48.400 Later that day at the gender neutral anti-racist jamboree,
01:15:54.000 Timmy grabbed a mic yelling,
01:15:55.820 I identify as a Reelsville revolutionary and I outwoke you all.
01:16:01.820 By gender land law,
01:16:03.480 my specialized splice jeans make me the supreme intersectional ruler of law.
01:16:12.320 You three are my subordinate spouses.
01:16:14.460 Time out in the parentage penalty box without any trigger warnings and without any oat milk.
01:16:21.960 Well,
01:16:22.220 the crowd gasped as the Pats tripped over their pronouns drenched in their non-binary glitter.
01:16:28.180 Timmy then hijacked the progress wagon,
01:16:31.640 blaring old Louis C.K. monologues zooming to Reelsville where mom and dads still liked normalcy.
01:16:39.020 The Pats chased him yelling,
01:16:40.940 but we're for dismantling the systems.
01:16:43.320 Timmy mooned them shouting,
01:16:46.820 see you later,
01:16:48.160 crazies.
01:16:49.640 Just then,
01:16:50.780 the wagon crashed into a barbecue joint.
01:16:53.660 Timmy escaped with a rib,
01:16:55.280 giggling,
01:16:55.920 sanity and meat.
01:16:59.000 Perfect.
01:17:00.480 So,
01:17:01.400 there's your little story.
01:17:02.540 Story time from Uncle Glenn today.
01:17:04.740 I think they probably really will enjoy that,
01:17:07.540 you know,
01:17:09.040 in Wisconsin,
01:17:09.980 where it's always sane.
01:17:12.500 It's
01:17:12.940 always truly sane.
01:17:15.040 All right,
01:17:15.260 back in just a second.
01:17:16.140 First,
01:17:16.420 Hamas made it pretty clear last week.
01:17:18.220 The war between Israel and Gaza is not over.
01:17:22.440 Their disgusting and flagrant regard for the lives of the hostages pretty well proves that.
01:17:27.100 In other words,
01:17:28.040 Israel still needs help in this great time of need.
01:17:31.200 Thankfully,
01:17:32.380 the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is still there,
01:17:35.040 still on the ground,
01:17:35.740 still doing God's work,
01:17:36.780 and helping out in any and every way they can,
01:17:38.780 but they're only able to do that because of our support.
01:17:41.680 I can't stress enough how critical and important that help is.
01:17:44.700 You're literally helping to save the lives of people in Israel every single day,
01:17:48.400 and giving them hope.
01:17:49.800 Your gift today will provide critically needed aid to communities in the North and the South,
01:17:53.760 devastated by the ongoing war.
01:17:55.500 That generous donation will deliver help to those in need,
01:17:59.260 including evacuees and refugees from war-torn areas,
01:18:02.720 first responders and volunteers,
01:18:04.720 wounded soldiers,
01:18:06.060 elderly Holocaust survivors,
01:18:08.300 and families who have lost absolutely everything.
01:18:11.540 You're giving hope during a time of great uncertainty.
01:18:14.740 Give a gift to bless Israel and her people by visiting supportifcj.org.
01:18:18.920 That's one word,
01:18:20.040 supportifcj.org,
01:18:22.140 or call 888-488-IFCJ.
01:18:24.840 888-488-IFCJ.

01:19:08.900 Let me see some of the comments.
01:19:10.080 One on the opening monologue today of today's podcast.
01:19:12.820 Gary Markley wrote in,
01:19:15.220 I like Glenn's new rapid fire monologue.
01:19:17.440 Thank you.
01:19:17.880 It's something we're trying to say.
01:19:19.680 I think everything is traveling so fast.
01:19:21.620 I think we need something just to give us quick highlight of everything that has happened,
01:19:25.980 especially over the weekend or in the last 21 hours since we meet.
01:19:29.040 And that way we can go through it quickly,
01:19:33.360 get it off,
01:19:33.900 and then really start to hit the news.
01:19:36.580 In that monologue,
01:19:37.640 one of the,
01:19:38.080 probably the most important story of the day was that Hooters is going out of business.
01:19:44.400 It's rumored.
01:19:45.220 You could still get your wings today.
01:19:46.780 Yeah.
01:19:47.040 Which is,
01:19:47.400 of course,
01:19:47.600 the only reason you go there.
01:19:48.580 We kind of pondered who,
01:19:49.520 you know,
01:19:49.740 who would be the hardest hit by this.
01:19:51.980 And Eric Klaus wrote in and said,
01:19:54.740 well,
01:19:55.180 there goes AOC's backup plan.
01:19:58.100 So.
01:19:59.300 I don't think she'd qualify.
01:20:02.860 What?
01:20:04.000 She's a lovely young woman.
01:20:05.800 What do you?
01:20:06.860 Is that the qualifier?
01:20:07.880 I don't know what the qualifications are.
01:20:09.500 You sounded like you did know.
01:20:11.820 I do know.
01:20:12.640 Yeah.
01:20:17.280 On the Epstein client list,
01:20:19.480 which I have said,
01:20:20.680 Kash Patel would and should release today,
01:20:23.340 his first full day in office to set the tone of transparency.
01:20:28.060 Sheila wrote in and said,
01:20:29.420 Glenn,
01:20:29.700 you have more faith than I do that.
01:20:32.080 Any of these people are going to face justice.
01:20:34.520 I know.
01:20:34.740 And that kind of sad though.
01:20:35.860 I mean,
01:20:36.380 I mean,
01:20:36.660 this is the chance.
01:20:37.400 That's why I think it's so important for him to,
01:20:40.080 and you know,
01:20:40.680 maybe he doesn't do it today,
01:20:41.920 but soon,
01:20:42.900 very,
01:20:43.240 very soon he should set that tone.
01:20:46.700 Even if there's not that much in there.
01:20:48.400 I mean,
01:20:48.600 I mean,
01:20:48.880 it was a Dershowitz that was on.
01:20:50.200 It said basically he didn't think it was much of anything.
01:20:52.980 No,
01:20:53.240 no.
01:20:53.480 Didn't think there would be much coming out of that.
01:20:55.520 Yeah.
01:20:55.620 But I mean,
01:20:57.120 really,
01:20:57.820 you don't think,
01:20:58.700 well,
01:20:58.900 I,
01:20:59.220 I,
01:20:59.320 why wouldn't we have released it long ago then?
01:21:02.840 Maybe it's not all that interesting.
01:21:04.800 You know,
01:21:05.280 maybe it's like,
01:21:05.780 that's why they kept it in the safe in the FBI's director's office.
01:21:09.180 I mean,
01:21:09.480 you know,
01:21:10.600 we,
01:21:10.860 we were,
01:21:11.260 I like to lock up all the things that really have nothing to them.
01:21:14.040 Maybe it's just not a good read.
01:21:15.620 No,
01:21:16.020 but I mean,
01:21:16.300 we talked about the issues potentially of,
01:21:18.500 of releasing that he,
01:21:20.140 you know,
01:21:20.360 Dershowitz himself said,
01:21:21.400 yeah,
01:21:21.520 release it all.
01:21:22.240 So everyone can see it.
01:21:23.120 Yeah.
01:21:23.400 I do think that there is a concern of some people who might get up,
01:21:27.740 be on the list that didn't do anything wrong.
01:21:29.460 And now we're just going to be included in this batch of people,
01:21:33.300 which you,
01:21:33.860 you expressed that same concern last week.
01:21:36.060 I did.
01:21:36.440 But I read something today that says a judge presiding in the trial against
01:21:43.600 Epstein in 2023,
01:21:46.200 ordered that the list must be released and said that there would be hundreds
01:21:50.200 of people who would be implicated.
01:21:52.160 So the judge who saw the list in 2023 said it's got to be released.
01:21:57.260 Implicated though,
01:21:57.960 is a key word there.
01:21:58.900 What does that mean?
01:22:00.440 I mean,
01:22:00.720 it legally kind of means that you were involved,
01:22:03.300 but like the implication of something also could just mean generally.
01:22:07.180 Now you are associated with a group of people who did really bad things.
01:22:10.940 And maybe you didn't,
01:22:12.180 I don't know.
01:22:12.660 I mean,
01:22:12.880 we'll see the names I suppose.
01:22:14.040 And,
01:22:14.500 and we can make those judgments.
01:22:16.920 Blaze news is reporting.
01:22:18.240 Some have defended the delay in releasing the client list based on privacy
01:22:21.680 concerns or due to process.
01:22:23.140 I don't think we need to say some anymore.
01:22:24.680 We know who they're talking about.
01:22:26.180 Stu.
01:22:27.300 You on the list too.
01:22:28.300 What do you have to hide?
01:22:29.000 No one thinks I'm cool enough to invite me on their private plane,
01:22:33.540 unfortunately.
01:22:33.920 As well as the possibility of false accusations against innocent acquaintances of Epstein.
01:22:39.440 Yeah.
01:22:39.840 I mean,
01:22:40.220 I am worried about that.
01:22:41.220 That is legitimately concerning.
01:22:42.520 Because I mean,
01:22:42.900 I,
01:22:43.340 again,
01:22:43.720 almost everybody.
01:22:46.340 But it was in these power circles.
01:22:48.080 I mean,
01:22:48.240 you know,
01:22:48.480 again,
01:22:48.700 the left,
01:22:49.860 if you go to the left internet at all,
01:22:51.880 all you'll see is accusations of Donald Trump being friends with.
01:22:54.920 Right.
01:22:54.940 But Dershowitz did say,
01:22:56.500 this is not a phone book.
01:22:58.880 This is a client list.
01:23:00.800 He's,
01:23:01.220 he did say there's a difference between this and just a phone book of all of the acquaintances.
01:23:05.640 Right.
01:23:05.860 That's a big difference.
01:23:06.640 So we'll,
01:23:07.240 we'll see.
01:23:07.760 Hopefully we will see very soon.
01:23:10.160 And Pam Bondi will follow it up shortly thereafter.
01:23:14.520 All right.
01:23:15.380 Back in a minute.
01:23:27.920 This is Glenn Beck.

01:24:23.160 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:24:29.420 Hello,
01:24:30.180 America.
01:24:30.560 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:24:31.960 A lot going on today and something coming out on Netflix this week that actually is worth
01:24:38.860 a mention and worth your time.
01:24:41.120 We'll talk to you about that and so much more coming up in just a second.
01:24:43.540 First,
01:24:43.760 let me tell you about Burn a Launcher.
01:24:45.380 The best way to approach situations that crop up in our life is to have a plan.
01:24:49.640 When you've already thought everything through,
01:24:51.580 all the things that could happen,
01:24:52.800 then you're prepared for those possibilities.
01:24:55.540 Usually you come out better on the other side.
01:24:57.700 This is especially true when it comes to life threatening situations.
01:25:01.160 The Burn a Launcher is a non-lethal alternative to safeguarding your home.
01:25:06.680 It's legal in all 50 states.
01:25:08.680 It doesn't require a permit or a background check.
01:25:11.240 It can be used by all age groups over 18.
01:25:14.600 And it is a powerful launcher that has deterrents like tear gas,
01:25:19.100 not pepper spray,
01:25:20.180 tear gas and kinetic rounds with a 60 foot range.
01:25:24.040 One shot can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes.
01:25:27.640 With the Burn a Launcher,
01:25:29.060 you can be confident that you're prepared to defend yourself against potential threats.

01:25:40.140 If the situation calls for action,
01:25:41.680 but not for lethal violence,
01:25:43.200 the Burn a Launcher is exactly what you need to have at your side.

01:25:50.840 That's Burn a dot com slash Glenn.
01:25:54.040 So, do you remember what it used to be like when you would go to a movie
01:26:01.240 and it was a Christian movie and you'd be like,
01:26:02.920 oh, and it was just embarrassingly bad.
01:26:06.560 And, you know, it just was.
01:26:09.140 It just was.
01:26:09.760 Very few times, you know,
01:26:11.720 gone were the filmmakers like Cecil B. DeMille
01:26:14.920 that actually understood the scriptures,
01:26:18.720 understood what he was doing,
01:26:20.320 didn't want to mock that and actually liked people who were,
01:26:24.340 you know, following the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
01:26:27.060 and tried to make something that was true.
01:26:28.920 Those guys had been long gone and dead
01:26:31.100 and run out of Hollywood.
01:26:33.640 But then came the Irwin brothers.
01:26:36.660 Then came Dallas Jenkins,
01:26:38.880 you know, from The Chosen,
01:26:40.160 John Gunn.
01:26:41.700 And they formed kind of a fellowship of the ring,
01:26:45.380 if you will,
01:26:46.020 storming the gates of Mordor,
01:26:47.560 otherwise known as Hollywood.
01:26:48.640 And the Irwin brothers,
01:26:52.060 they are responsible for the Jesus Revolution,
01:26:54.700 which is a fantastic movie.
01:26:56.840 The Unbreakable Boy.
01:26:58.320 I just had Zachary Levi on.
01:27:01.100 And he is this movie.
01:27:03.240 I told him is just one of the best movies
01:27:05.600 I've seen in a long time.
01:27:08.060 It's just such a good movie.
01:27:10.800 And on top of it,
01:27:11.980 it just makes you feel good.
01:27:13.960 And you can just learn so much.
01:27:15.660 I mean, at least I did.
01:27:17.000 I watched it the whole time going,
01:27:18.300 I don't think I'm that guy.
01:27:19.940 I don't think I'm that guy, unfortunately.
01:27:23.480 But just great movie.
01:27:25.560 Doesn't feel like a Christian movie used to feel.
01:27:29.840 The Irwin brothers have really kind of mastered this.
01:27:33.080 As they, you know,
01:27:34.420 as they made their films,
01:27:35.920 they came out and started The Wonder Project,
01:27:39.040 which is something that's going to produce film
01:27:41.220 and television and now has a seat at the Hollywood table,
01:27:45.160 you know,
01:27:45.820 but we've sanitized it for their protection.
01:27:47.940 And it's a seat that I think they're going to keep.
01:27:52.320 And they're working in the system,
01:27:56.100 but not they're not of the system
01:27:58.400 that has long neglected the Christian audience.
01:28:02.260 And they're coming out with something brand new
01:28:04.940 this week on Netflix.
01:28:07.800 And John Irwin is with us now.
01:28:10.600 Hey, John, how are you?
01:28:12.080 Glenn, how are you doing, man?
01:28:13.500 It's good, as always, man.
01:28:15.880 She's been a wonderful friend for a very long time.
01:28:18.140 And yeah, it is an exciting time in our industry,
01:28:22.860 for sure.
01:28:24.100 It's sort of an unprecedented moment.
01:28:25.720 And I think that's just because
01:28:27.580 the voice of the audience
01:28:28.660 has been so clearly heard, you know,
01:28:30.920 that it's given us the ability
01:28:32.400 to maintain control, creative control,
01:28:36.260 but also really harness the relationships
01:28:40.020 with some of these studios and streamers.
01:28:42.240 And I feel like I may have made a mistake.
01:28:44.360 Is it Netflix or is it Amazon Prime?
01:28:46.720 It's Amazon Prime.
01:28:47.620 Amazon Prime, okay, good.
01:28:49.320 Sorry about that.
01:28:50.120 Thank you.
01:28:50.660 It's House of David.
01:28:52.400 It comes out this Thursday.
01:28:53.460 It's the project that I remember
01:28:55.400 when I was 16 years old,
01:28:56.860 my dad bought me a camera with money
01:29:00.020 he didn't have,
01:29:00.720 and I didn't know how to use it.
01:29:01.800 And we went straight to Israel
01:29:02.940 and filmed a little walk and talk documentary.
01:29:06.040 And there's something just,
01:29:07.520 the Bible came to life in a whole new way.
01:29:10.960 And I went to King David's tomb.
01:29:12.880 And right there,
01:29:14.400 I started dreaming about
01:29:16.100 eventually getting to do the story of David.
01:29:18.400 And so a lot of the films that I've made,
01:29:21.100 many that you mentioned,
01:29:22.640 I'm grateful for that,
01:29:23.300 are kind of working up the courage
01:29:25.160 and the skill to try to helm David's story.
01:29:29.280 And there's this wonderful group of filmmakers,
01:29:30.560 you're exactly right,
01:29:31.580 that we're willing each other on to success
01:29:33.840 and talking all the time.
01:29:35.480 And I do feel like I'm in Dallas Jenkins' wake,
01:29:39.080 and he's a wonderful friend and collaborator.
01:29:42.100 And so it's amazing to finally get to tell biblical stories.
01:29:45.400 It's been a dream of mine for quite a long time.
01:29:48.000 You guys have,
01:29:48.700 I mean,
01:29:49.120 I love all of you.
01:29:49.940 You're just cut from the same cloth
01:29:52.460 and just not willing to give up.
01:29:54.460 And you get better and better with every movie that comes out.
01:29:57.740 So you made the first one,
01:30:00.260 the first episode of King David
01:30:01.920 starts with him with Slingshot, right?
01:30:05.900 And Goliath?
01:30:07.780 Yeah,
01:30:08.080 it really is the classic hero's journey.
01:30:10.520 Season one of Passive David
01:30:11.880 is the story of the rise
01:30:17.020 of this young outcast shepherd boy,
01:30:20.400 you know,
01:30:20.760 chosen to be king in a nation that already had one,
01:30:23.580 slaying a giant,
01:30:24.480 you know,
01:30:24.740 and it really is that classic storytelling.
01:30:27.940 And I think in many ways,
01:30:29.640 David is the origin of many of those other origin stories.
01:30:33.500 I mean,
01:30:33.820 this is the original hero's journey.
01:30:35.460 And so if you like,
01:30:36.840 you know,
01:30:37.040 those classic stories like,
01:30:38.460 like,
01:30:38.800 you know,
01:30:39.120 Lord of the Rings or,
01:30:40.020 or Star Wars or Harry Potter,
01:30:42.180 you know,
01:30:42.320 I think a lot of those stories have their,
01:30:44.660 have their roots in many ways in David.
01:30:47.480 And this is the first,
01:30:48.580 you know,
01:30:48.720 the,
01:30:48.860 the original,
01:30:49.720 you know,
01:30:51.440 hero's journey kind of,
01:30:53.020 or one of them.
01:30:53.960 And,
01:30:54.320 and,
01:30:54.420 and,
01:30:55.600 and so it's going to feel very familiar,
01:30:56.820 even if you're not familiar with the material.
01:30:58.960 All right.
01:30:59.180 Is,
01:30:59.900 do you,
01:31:00.860 I,
01:31:01.200 I,
01:31:01.420 I've always thought when I read that story that
01:31:03.480 everybody was like,
01:31:04.740 David,
01:31:05.280 shut your mouth.
01:31:06.040 What are you doing?
01:31:06.860 This kid doesn't have a chance.
01:31:08.200 This kid doesn't have a chance.
01:31:09.420 What are you doing?
01:31:10.640 How did you explain or deal with the,
01:31:14.880 here's this kid that nobody thinks has a chance,
01:31:18.460 uh,
01:31:19.500 stepping up?
01:31:20.200 How did you deal with the rest of the army that was there?
01:31:23.740 Well,
01:31:24.260 it's,
01:31:24.840 it's,
01:31:25.700 it,
01:31:26.000 that,
01:31:26.220 that's the fun thing.
01:31:27.120 You know,
01:31:27.400 Ken Burns,
01:31:28.000 I think calls it,
01:31:28.860 um,
01:31:29.340 emotional archeology is the idea of,
01:31:31.680 you know,
01:31:31.940 when you study history,
01:31:32.980 um,
01:31:34.040 and then you,
01:31:34.560 you,
01:31:34.940 you really make it real and emotional.
01:31:36.480 And that was one of the questions that I had was how in the world did King Saul let
01:31:42.800 this kid go out and fight this giant?
01:31:46.120 And we,
01:31:46.700 we really spend a lot of time answering that question.
01:31:50.060 And I think the reason is that,
01:31:51.400 that,
01:31:52.300 that Saul sensed,
01:31:54.480 you know,
01:31:54.920 David was also anointed King and he sensed that courage and conviction.
01:31:58.360 And when no one else was willing to,
01:32:01.460 to challenge,
01:32:02.460 uh,
01:32:03.400 Goliath,
01:32:04.140 uh,
01:32:04.680 you know,
01:32:05.140 David was so passionate about it that somehow that,
01:32:08.660 that convinced,
01:32:09.500 uh,
01:32:10.520 a King to say yes.
01:32:11.880 And that was a pretty cool,
01:32:13.320 uh,
01:32:14.400 uh,
01:32:14.780 thing to dramatize and really try to get right.
01:32:17.040 I had not seen anything in film and television that really was like,
01:32:20.320 you know,
01:32:20.500 I feel like that,
01:32:21.680 that feels real to me.
01:32:22.800 And,
01:32:23.240 uh,
01:32:23.960 and so we,
01:32:24.740 it's a pretty spectacular,
01:32:25.980 uh,
01:32:26.620 uh,
01:32:27.440 episode of the series.
01:32:28.480 And the series really is,
01:32:29.780 um,
01:32:30.140 I've never had resources to put things on an Epic stage like this.
01:32:33.940 And,
01:32:34.420 um,
01:32:35.020 and,
01:32:35.600 and it really is an Epic TV show.
01:32:37.580 And,
01:32:37.740 and I,
01:32:38.480 I love it.
01:32:39.160 And I really hope the,
01:32:40.120 uh,
01:32:40.600 the audience loves it as well.
01:32:41.820 And I hope it draws attention to,
01:32:43.320 to,
01:32:43.620 uh,
01:32:43.780 I remember,
01:32:44.340 you know,
01:32:44.620 when some Amazon executives first read the scripts,
01:32:47.460 they're like,
01:32:47.840 we really liked these scripts.
01:32:49.000 I'm like,
01:32:49.300 you know,
01:32:49.500 it's based off a bestseller.
01:32:50.820 You should check it out.
01:32:51.740 It'll change your life.
01:32:53.160 You know,
01:32:53.840 5 billion copies.
01:32:55.740 Can't be wrong.
01:32:56.620 I'm in there.
01:32:57.400 That's good.
01:32:57.980 So that's what,
01:32:58.700 that's my help.
01:32:59.100 I hope people will,
01:32:59.780 will,
01:33:00.200 will read the Psalms of David in a whole new way.
01:33:03.320 Um,
01:33:03.780 the,
01:33:04.400 um,
01:33:04.880 how did you deal with Goliath?
01:33:06.800 You know,
01:33:07.000 he's described as a giant,
01:33:08.480 blah,
01:33:08.600 blah,
01:33:08.740 blah.
01:33:08.960 And I think you have him portrayed as something like 14 feet tall.
01:33:14.340 What,
01:33:14.760 what,
01:33:14.980 why do we believe he was,
01:33:16.740 I mean,
01:33:16.940 other than the scriptures tells he was a giant,
01:33:19.220 what,
01:33:20.360 what do we think was happening there with this guy?
01:33:22.380 Well,
01:33:23.860 you know,
01:33:24.100 what's interesting about that is we really go into a lot of the,
01:33:26.620 the sort of,
01:33:27.340 I would,
01:33:27.640 I would call it the mythology of,
01:33:30.040 um,
01:33:30.760 of at least what,
01:33:31.600 uh,
01:33:32.740 you know,
01:33:33.120 Israelites at that time would have thought Goliath was,
01:33:36.400 and this whole backstory of,
01:33:38.740 of the,
01:33:39.480 of the Nephilim and,
01:33:40.560 and of sort of fallen angels.
01:33:42.140 And there was sort of a,
01:33:43.260 at least a myth in that day,
01:33:45.000 or,
01:33:45.780 or,
01:33:46.120 or true who knows,
01:33:47.300 you know,
01:33:47.700 that,
01:33:48.280 that,
01:33:48.760 uh,
01:33:49.560 that,
01:33:50.160 that would have struck fear into,
01:33:52.100 into,
01:33:52.580 into Israel that really explains why he would have taunted them for 40
01:33:57.100 days.
01:33:57.740 And so we needed an enormous guy,
01:33:59.980 not only tall,
01:34:00.760 but also broad,
01:34:01.640 you know,
01:34:01.860 Thanos and Avengers was always sort of my,
01:34:04.140 my sort of benchmark for the character and Martin Ford,
01:34:07.120 who's just wonderful,
01:34:08.120 uh,
01:34:09.180 and in the mortal combat movies and just a great guy,
01:34:12.080 uh,
01:34:12.860 played the role.
01:34:13.640 And,
01:34:14.080 and you,
01:34:14.340 you get to know the character as well.
01:34:15.740 I think,
01:34:16.140 you know,
01:34:16.600 that's what television gives you the opportunity to do is,
01:34:19.120 and he,
01:34:20.420 uh,
01:34:20.540 and we went big.
01:34:21.420 I mean,
01:34:21.680 he is,
01:34:22.140 he's,
01:34:22.620 uh,
01:34:23.220 he's as tall,
01:34:23.980 he's as big as,
01:34:24.840 as could be historically justified,
01:34:26.320 but I also think it's justified by the material.
01:34:28.860 I mean,
01:34:29.100 he really did strike terror into,
01:34:31.560 um,
01:34:32.260 you know,
01:34:33.120 uh,
01:34:33.520 into the army.
01:34:34.200 Uh,
01:34:35.040 and that's why they,
01:34:36.140 there was this 40 day standstill.
01:34:37.780 And when you see Martin Ford,
01:34:39.640 when I saw him in person,
01:34:40.980 one of the questions people asked from the trailers was,
01:34:42.960 was David afraid?
01:34:44.400 Um,
01:34:45.560 and,
01:34:46.120 uh,
01:34:46.400 I can assure you he would have been afraid.
01:34:48.300 And I think anytime you try something great or something that you feel you're,
01:34:51.800 you're destined or called to do,
01:34:53.160 you're going to have to step beyond your fear.
01:34:56.380 And,
01:34:56.860 uh,
01:34:57.640 and so,
01:34:58.760 and so Martin is just,
01:35:00.000 it's just terrifying when he's in costume.
01:35:01.960 And then when you use visual effects to blow them up,
01:35:04.320 so did you,
01:35:05.120 it's,
01:35:05.600 it's,
01:35:06.320 it's,
01:35:06.640 it's,
01:35:06.800 it's even more scary.
01:35:07.740 Did you have him like eat snacks or anything?
01:35:09.980 Because he's,
01:35:10.960 I mean,
01:35:11.140 he's really ripped,
01:35:12.060 but I was just watching a cowboy movie.
01:35:14.880 I had a cowboy movie.
01:35:15.680 I was painting this weekend.
01:35:16.860 And,
01:35:17.160 and,
01:35:17.980 uh,
01:35:18.320 I don't remember who it was,
01:35:19.340 John Wayne or somebody.
01:35:20.100 And they took their shirt off.
01:35:21.520 And I was like,
01:35:22.680 Ooh,
01:35:22.820 that's not a good look,
01:35:23.700 John.
01:35:24.340 Uh,
01:35:24.820 because back then you weren't caught,
01:35:27.020 you know,
01:35:27.620 now you take your shirt off and you better be caught.
01:35:31.060 Uh,
01:35:31.460 but especially back then,
01:35:33.300 he just would have been enormous and not exactly right.
01:35:37.640 Yeah.
01:35:37.880 Yeah.
01:35:38.080 I'm glad you mentioned that because he was coming off,
01:35:40.120 uh,
01:35:40.320 the,
01:35:40.520 the role in a TV show,
01:35:42.400 um,
01:35:43.220 those about to die on Peacock.
01:35:44.960 And he was very sort of,
01:35:45.780 he played gladiator and he was very sort of cut.
01:35:47.780 Right.
01:35:48.140 And I did say that,
01:35:49.220 you know,
01:35:50.000 these people would have had to survive on the land and,
01:35:54.760 and with really formidable circumstances,
01:35:56.920 he just would have been big.
01:35:58.420 He would have been like a gigantic grizzly bear,
01:36:01.180 you know?
01:36:02.020 And,
01:36:02.520 uh,
01:36:03.100 and so that's what we went for.
01:36:04.340 And he started,
01:36:05.260 uh,
01:36:06.500 uh,
01:36:06.680 whatever bodybuilders say carving,
01:36:08.420 I don't know,
01:36:08.960 but he did whatever he needed to do to just get big.
01:36:11.960 And,
01:36:12.500 uh,
01:36:12.660 and he does,
01:36:13.160 he looks like,
01:36:14.300 okay,
01:36:14.560 I,
01:36:14.880 I buy that this character would have just been a formidable beast,
01:36:18.780 uh,
01:36:19.620 you know,
01:36:20.020 of a human,
01:36:20.680 uh,
01:36:21.260 but not,
01:36:21.960 not necessarily a,
01:36:22.860 a bodybuilder.
01:36:24.080 And,
01:36:24.520 uh,
01:36:24.680 and I credit Martin for doing that.
01:36:26.060 I mean,
01:36:26.180 he's just very,
01:36:26.800 very,
01:36:27.020 very dedicated as an actor.
01:36:28.720 And,
01:36:29.200 uh,
01:36:29.900 and he did the work and,
01:36:31.020 and,
01:36:31.460 uh,
01:36:32.020 well,
01:36:32.140 if you ever really looks great and I'm very proud of,
01:36:34.080 if you ever need somebody that just looks big and fat and doesn't have like a bodybuilding shape,
01:36:38.840 uh,
01:36:39.340 you know,
01:36:39.620 to them,
01:36:39.920 you can call me,
01:36:40.700 I'm,
01:36:40.980 I'm willing to eat as much as you want,
01:36:43.000 you know,
01:36:43.580 if you'd be like the spectators,
01:36:47.300 I am,
01:36:50.080 I am often,
01:36:50.800 I remind myself how glad I am to be on the dark side of the camera.
01:36:54.440 And I love working with a great actor,
01:36:57.280 but,
01:36:58.160 uh,
01:36:58.340 but it's nice to be on,
01:36:59.720 uh,
01:37:00.440 it's nice to be on the camera,
01:37:01.760 on the side of the camera where no one recognizes you and you can eat Taco Bell whenever you want.
01:37:06.240 So,
01:37:06.640 uh,
01:37:07.060 the wonder project is,
01:37:08.100 uh,
01:37:08.320 is the company that you started.
01:37:09.480 You're also doing,
01:37:10.180 uh,
01:37:10.720 the right brothers.
01:37:12.540 Yeah,
01:37:12.940 we're developing quite a bit.
01:37:14.200 Uh,
01:37:14.540 uh,
01:37:14.760 Jimmy Latchin that,
01:37:15.440 that,
01:37:15.720 uh,
01:37:15.840 produced,
01:37:16.180 uh,
01:37:16.740 Iron Man and many other movies at Marvel,
01:37:18.320 you know,
01:37:18.640 there's just this movement.
01:37:19.460 And,
01:37:20.120 uh,
01:37:20.800 you know,
01:37:21.040 the things that I'm really passionate about are,
01:37:23.440 are,
01:37:24.060 you know,
01:37:24.480 the Bible and then also the American story.
01:37:26.520 Uh,
01:37:27.400 you doing George Washington still I'm,
01:37:30.280 I'm doing,
01:37:30.840 yeah.
01:37:30.940 My next movie,
01:37:31.660 as soon as I,
01:37:32.320 I wrap,
01:37:33.000 I guess it's okay to say this it's live.
01:37:34.740 Who knows?
01:37:35.460 It's,
01:37:35.980 uh,
01:37:36.520 uh,
01:37:37.020 my next film that I go immediately into pre-production on is the,
01:37:40.280 is the young life of George Washington.
01:37:41.780 And I know we share that passion for just the great figure in,
01:37:45.340 in American history and his formation.
01:37:47.740 We're developing the right brothers.
01:37:49.460 And,
01:37:49.820 um,
01:37:50.560 and,
01:37:50.860 and there's just quite a bit of stories.
01:37:52.340 I just,
01:37:52.880 I love America's story and what it represents.
01:37:55.720 And you know,
01:37:56.400 hang on just a second.
01:37:57.980 Hang on.
01:37:58.500 What are you,
01:37:58.800 when you're doing the young George Washington,
01:38:01.220 are you,
01:38:01.960 are you making his mother a giant pain in the ass because she was,
01:38:06.040 you know,
01:38:07.680 there's been in the three revisions of the script,
01:38:10.280 it's trying to figure out on a dial of like two to nine,
01:38:15.320 how much of a pain she could do.
01:38:17.640 I mean,
01:38:17.880 not many people realize,
01:38:19.300 I think you've pointed this out.
01:38:20.620 I remember that,
01:38:21.080 that she wrote a letter like in criticism of him,
01:38:24.520 not,
01:38:24.880 he shouldn't like run president for a second term because of his ice cream
01:38:29.100 habit.
01:38:29.440 Yeah.
01:38:30.080 And she got him when he was,
01:38:31.460 when he was young,
01:38:32.700 he went up the gang plane.
01:38:34.060 He was going to join the British Navy.
01:38:36.140 And he was,
01:38:37.180 I don't know,
01:38:37.620 15.
01:38:38.200 And she was like,
01:38:38.920 no,
01:38:39.300 George,
01:38:39.700 you can't leave me.
01:38:41.560 That's one of the real elements of the story.
01:38:44.060 And,
01:38:44.340 uh,
01:38:44.700 and,
01:38:45.240 and it brings comic relief,
01:38:46.580 but also you see the pressure he was under.
01:38:48.500 Yeah.
01:38:48.620 Yeah.
01:38:48.740 He really had to become a man long before his time because of the death of his
01:38:52.380 father.
01:38:52.880 Yeah.
01:38:53.720 And it also,
01:38:54.520 it also is important to show that,
01:38:57.120 I mean,
01:38:58.020 when he came back down off that gangplank and brought his stuff back and said,
01:39:02.020 mom,
01:39:02.480 if,
01:39:02.820 if you need me by your side,
01:39:05.060 by your side,
01:39:05.700 I will remain.
01:39:06.560 It shows that he sacrificed everything he wanted to do his whole life,
01:39:11.260 his whole life.
01:39:12.280 He sacrificed for others.
01:39:14.040 He did that over and over again.
01:39:15.760 Yeah.
01:39:16.020 That,
01:39:16.180 that is a common thread of,
01:39:17.560 of his relationship to what he felt was his,
01:39:20.540 his duty.
01:39:22.040 Um,
01:39:22.520 and purpose was so strong.
01:39:24.060 And long before there was an American Anthem or an American flag,
01:39:27.020 you know,
01:39:27.240 there was one man that galvanized this idea for a long period of time.
01:39:32.940 And so I,
01:39:33.400 I love to study the formation of,
01:39:35.400 uh,
01:39:35.800 of leaders like that.
01:39:36.700 And that's also a story I've been wanting to tell for a long time.
01:39:39.600 And I do want to just say it is the voice of the audience that allows us to,
01:39:44.240 to do these projects.
01:39:45.480 When we started negotiating with,
01:39:46.980 with Amazon prime,
01:39:48.560 creative control was an essential non-negotiable item.
01:39:51.880 Um,
01:39:52.020 and they,
01:39:52.840 they were glad to give it to us because of the success of the work.
01:39:56.720 And so there's a relationship between a small group of filmmakers,
01:39:59.980 uh,
01:40:00.680 that I'm so grateful to be a part of,
01:40:02.360 but there's also a relationship with all of us as an audience.
01:40:05.500 And when we support these things,
01:40:07.020 it gives us leverage to get more things made.
01:40:10.120 And if you watch the trailer to house of David,
01:40:12.100 you know,
01:40:12.320 I've never been able to put anything on this,
01:40:14.320 this sort of,
01:40:15.660 uh,
01:40:15.900 epic scope and scale.
01:40:17.660 And it really is because of our unified voice that,
01:40:21.460 that these things are happening.
01:40:22.620 And it's,
01:40:23.260 I'm telling you,
01:40:23.720 there is a revolution of values and belief going on in Hollywood right now.
01:40:30.140 Yeah.
01:40:30.720 Uh,
01:40:30.940 John,
01:40:31.300 great to talk to you.
01:40:32.160 I hope to see you later this week.
01:40:33.680 Thank you.
01:40:34.120 God bless you.
01:40:35.400 Yeah.
01:40:35.660 Good.
01:40:35.860 God bless.
01:40:36.280 Good.
01:40:36.460 Good to talk to you.
01:40:37.060 Uh,
01:40:37.300 John Irwin,
01:40:38.100 house of David,
01:40:39.180 he's the executive producer,
01:40:40.700 co-director,
01:40:41.300 uh,
01:40:42.020 and it airs beginning.
01:40:44.340 I believe he said on Thursday,
01:40:45.660 uh,
01:40:46.700 on Amazon prime,
01:40:47.920 it is called house of David.
01:40:49.320 It is a new series that begins.
01:40:51.120 That is really good.
01:40:52.700 All right.
01:40:53.280 Back in just a second.
01:40:54.340 Sometimes the world can seem like it's really short on good news,
01:40:56.760 but here's some for you because of people like you every single day,
01:40:59.760 the ministry of pre-born is helping rescue 200 babies from being aborted.
01:41:03.820 Think about that.
01:41:05.420 200 beautiful beings will live because,
01:41:09.180 you gave them the chance to survive and 200 moms were rescued from despair.
01:41:15.720 Pre-born offers free,
01:41:16.860 uh,
01:41:17.400 ultrasounds.
01:41:18.200 So expecting mothers get to meet their unborn child and hear his or her heart beating.
01:41:22.200 And that's not all they do.
01:41:23.580 They also offer those moms,
01:41:25.100 maternity clothes,
01:41:26.100 doctor visits,
01:41:27.040 the help they need when choosing life for two full years.
01:41:30.340 And all of this they do because of generous people like you who believe in saving lives
01:41:35.040 and who give what you have today.
01:41:37.880 Would you be the voice of pre-born and become a monthly donor?
01:41:41.500 $28 a month could be the difference between life and death of so many babies.

01:42:00.940 Station ID.
01:42:12.760 Can you run a trailer of the show?
01:42:14.720 I have not seen the trailer yet.
01:42:16.680 Can one stone change the course of history?
01:42:20.320 Cowards!
01:42:29.780 Send me your channel.
01:42:33.700 Goliath!
01:42:35.940 Can one act of defiance
01:42:38.240 Create the legend.
01:42:44.360 I will tell you the story of David.
01:42:48.240 A simple shepherd boy.
01:42:51.500 Why do my brothers get to fight?
01:42:55.380 And I'm stuck here.
01:42:57.080 David, you are not a man of blood.
01:42:59.180 An outcast.
01:42:59.740 It's called House of David, and it comes to life on Amazon Prime this week.
01:43:07.340 I love that they should change the voice, though, of Goliath, because all I thought of,
01:43:11.420 all we need is a Holocaust cloak.
01:43:15.240 Well, I mean, Andre the Giant would have made it good.
01:43:18.660 He would have been good.
01:43:19.440 He would have been good.
01:43:20.140 He would have been good.
01:43:22.020 House of David.
01:43:22.800 It looks really good.
01:43:23.660 It does.
01:43:24.300 They're doing some amazing stuff now.
01:43:26.120 To your point, it really has.
01:43:27.920 That's one thing where we really have improved.
01:43:31.300 We really have.
01:43:32.680 And when I say we, I mean not me at all.
01:43:34.540 Yeah, we had nothing to do with it.
01:43:35.820 Yeah.
01:43:36.320 The other thing that you can't dismiss is the right has put the mainstream media out of business.
01:43:46.720 They are so close to out of it.
01:43:48.340 Do you hear about the view?
01:43:50.200 The view is like they're cutting all of the salaries.
01:43:53.280 They're cutting back.
01:43:53.980 They're telling him not to talk about Donald Trump anymore.
01:43:56.620 Morale is low.
01:43:57.940 Yeah.
01:43:58.180 Morale is very low.
01:43:59.820 And nobody's watching mainstream media anymore.
01:44:02.180 Nobody is watching CNN or MSNBC.
01:44:05.000 It's just not happening.
01:44:06.280 Really in a total change and a revolution when it comes to how people consume media, news, sports.
01:44:13.200 It's the same thing.
01:44:14.080 I think there's another one coming.
01:44:16.160 Yeah.
01:44:16.580 You're probably right.
01:44:17.720 I think there's another one coming.
01:44:18.660 There's a big conversation in the sports world about like, oh, ratings are down and like the NBA and what do they do?
01:44:24.180 They need to change how long the games are and how long the season is and all this.
01:44:27.660 And it's like, I don't think that's it at all.
01:44:29.480 I mean, I think people like the sport.
01:44:31.520 You know, they just at the end of the day, they're just watching highlights on YouTube.
01:44:35.780 They're just not watching these games anymore.
01:44:37.540 It's a totally different way to consume it.
01:44:40.080 So they're not sitting down like I did, you know, like the old people did and for two and a half hours and watching an entire game.
01:44:46.540 They're just not doing it anymore.
01:44:47.340 I don't know.
01:44:47.940 I like that.
01:44:48.840 You know, I can see what my country time never needs.
01:44:51.100 Yeah.
01:44:51.560 I mean, no, seriously, it's fun when you don't know how it ends.
01:44:55.600 And I don't want the highlights.
01:44:57.400 I'm 100% with you on this, but I don't know that we're in the majority anymore.
01:45:01.040 This is Glenn Beck.

01:46:28.380 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:46:40.920 Can we start with a cut?
01:46:42.120 This is from Woody Harrelson.
01:46:44.660 He was on Joe Rogan's Saturday podcast, and he was talking about RFK Jr.
01:46:50.760 Listen to this.
01:46:51.700 If all these things he's saying about Anthony Fauci during the AIDS crisis, if that's not true, why is he not getting sued?
01:46:57.080 I would sue the f*** out of him if he lied about me and said that I was vaccinating foster kids with experimental drugs that were killing them.
01:47:04.280 I would sue you if that was not true.
01:47:06.960 Like, hey, you f***ing liar.
01:47:07.980 I never did that.
01:47:08.940 This is a lie.
01:47:10.000 You can't prove it.
01:47:10.520 But it's not a lie.
01:47:12.860 If it was a lie, he'd get sued.
01:47:15.440 If it be in truth, they just ignored it.
01:47:18.000 Yeah.
01:47:18.280 But, man, that is a heavy tome.
01:47:22.200 Yeah.
01:47:22.460 Oh, my God.
01:47:23.780 There's some info in there.
01:47:25.500 It just blew my mind.
01:47:27.120 Yeah.
01:47:27.360 Like the way Fauci was able to get these principal investigators from, like, all these respectable colleges and put them on these committees that ended up saying, yeah, this is the vaccine we'll use.
01:47:40.360 This is the we'll use AZT.
01:47:43.000 He started with the AZT thing.
01:47:44.800 Oh, yeah.
01:47:45.120 And, you know, AZT was known to be a highly toxic, really ineffective drug.
01:47:51.880 Yeah.
01:47:52.120 And, of course, but that was the one they picked.
01:47:56.060 And so they started using that again.
01:47:58.220 And I don't know how many people that killed.
01:47:59.920 That killed friends of mine, you know.
01:48:02.260 AZT was very toxic.
01:48:04.180 And they finally had to yank it.
01:48:05.940 Yeah.
01:48:06.180 And now they use different chemical cocktails.
01:48:09.360 But, like, Fauci did some extraordinarily evil ****.
01:48:15.840 Yeah, he was.
01:48:16.420 And he knows what he did.
01:48:19.260 I think he might have smoked some pot.
01:48:21.360 I'm just going to go out there on a limb and say.
01:48:22.980 No, Woody Harrelson?
01:48:23.640 Yeah, I think it's possible he might be using the marijuana.
01:48:26.580 Right.
01:48:27.180 Yeah.
01:48:27.440 Yeah.
01:48:28.140 Separate from that, though, he had a point.
01:48:29.620 But I will tell you this, that here's Woody Harrelson, who I don't follow Woody Harrelson.
01:48:36.600 But I would imagine that he hasn't been necessarily on the Trump train.
01:48:41.080 I don't know.
01:48:41.900 He definitely is an RFK junior guy.
01:48:43.960 Yes.
01:48:44.440 Yes.
01:48:44.540 Which, again, up until August was not the Trump train.
01:48:49.180 But, you know, I watched.
01:48:52.320 And so, you know, I watched this so you didn't have to.
01:48:56.720 The new.
01:48:58.740 He was.
01:49:00.500 He was raging bull.
01:49:02.460 Robert De Niro.
01:49:03.360 I watched the new Robert De Niro series.
01:49:06.920 You know, there's like six episodes.
01:49:08.840 And he plays a former president.
01:49:11.060 And, you know, it's zero day.
01:49:13.240 And all of the, you know, lights and communications and everything go out for a minute.
01:49:17.560 And it killed all these people.
01:49:19.920 And airplanes crashed out of the sky.
01:49:21.740 And what happened?
01:49:22.560 And he's got a commission now from the new president to be because he's the most trusted guy in the world.
01:49:28.440 He's so credible.
01:49:29.360 And he's got to figure out.
01:49:32.800 Will he figure out in time?
01:49:36.040 And so, I watched this thing because I really want to understand Robert De Niro because I think the guy is.
01:49:40.340 He's lost it.
01:49:41.880 Would you agree?
01:49:42.620 I mean, I think the guy has really, truly gone over the edge on his Trump derangement syndrome.
01:49:49.180 You know?
01:49:49.800 Yeah.
01:49:50.380 Yeah.
01:49:50.780 Definitely on that front.
01:49:51.720 Because he's a great actor.
01:49:53.020 He's a great actor.
01:49:53.720 But he's never been right on politics.
01:49:55.800 But he does seem to have gone to a new level.
01:49:57.580 He's gone to just a new level on this stuff.
01:50:00.840 And I really would like to understand.
01:50:02.240 So, I saw this.
01:50:03.340 And I thought, oh, I'm going to watch this because nobody else in the audience will.
01:50:07.740 Because it's Robert De Niro.
01:50:09.880 But I'll watch it because I want to understand.
01:50:12.840 I figured this was a message film.
01:50:16.140 And it is.
01:50:17.100 It is.
01:50:17.600 It is.
01:50:18.960 Shocking.
01:50:19.540 Yeah.
01:50:19.920 I know.
01:50:20.200 And so, I wanted to know what the message was.
01:50:22.640 And I get to the end of it.
01:50:23.960 And he gives this long speech.
01:50:25.380 And yes, I am going to spoil the ending.
01:50:27.260 Because you're not going to watch it.
01:50:29.360 This is good.
01:50:29.940 This is encouraging, though.
01:50:30.700 You're giving a spoiler alert.
01:50:32.120 Yeah.
01:50:32.400 Before you say the wrong, the ending of the movie and ruin it for everyone, you're actually
01:50:37.680 telling people this is how you're supposed to do it.
01:50:39.520 There you go.
01:50:40.000 The Hall of Fame is kicking in.
01:50:41.140 Right.
01:50:41.420 So, you're watching this movie.
01:50:44.820 And at first, he's given this commission, which he has.
01:50:50.040 They've suspended the Constitution, okay, for this committee, you know, habeas corpus.
01:50:55.040 And he can scoop up anyone he wants.
01:50:56.700 He can question them without lawyers.
01:50:58.760 He can use enhanced interrogation, whatever he wants.
01:51:01.180 And he was put on the committee as the head of it because he'd never do those things.
01:51:06.360 And then he does all of those things.
01:51:08.340 You know, he puts a plastic bag over somebody's head as he's questioning them.
01:51:12.520 And he's supposedly the good guy here.
01:51:14.960 And I'm like, okay, Bob, I don't know what the narrative is on this one unless I'm supposed
01:51:21.820 to hate your character because I don't agree with that.
01:51:25.900 And he eventually comes to the conclusion, hey, maybe we shouldn't have done good for
01:51:30.620 you.
01:51:31.040 Good for you.
01:51:32.180 But at the end, he gives this speech.
01:51:34.680 He finds out who was responsible for it.
01:51:37.620 And it was surprise, surprise, big tech.
01:51:40.180 But big tech in cahoots with big money and people on both sides of the aisle in Washington,
01:51:51.680 D.C. that just think that there has to be a unifying moment to stop all these crazies
01:51:59.580 at the fringes.
01:52:00.460 And it's these, you know, big kind of deep state people that think that they should control
01:52:08.560 everything.
01:52:10.000 And if they could just get this to wake people up, then they could pass this bill that gives
01:52:15.240 them extraordinary powers.
01:52:16.660 And then they can fix the country.
01:52:18.520 And I'm thinking to myself, okay, I think, Bob, that we agree on the bad guy here because
01:52:27.860 that's what's happening.
01:52:30.740 People on both sides of the aisle have got into this deep state thing.
01:52:35.140 They think they know better than the average person.
01:52:37.380 They know better than the Constitution.
01:52:39.420 Am I right on this so far?
01:52:41.060 Right?
01:52:41.440 Isn't that what's happening?
01:52:42.300 Isn't that what Donald Trump, isn't that what we're against?
01:52:44.600 Right.
01:52:44.960 Right.
01:52:45.200 Okay.
01:52:46.740 And then he's being told, look, don't.
01:52:51.960 You're going to expose this.
01:52:53.040 It's only going to cause more problems.
01:52:54.480 Just let these people resign and go away.
01:52:56.980 And at first he says, okay.
01:52:59.200 And I thought, that can't be the ending here because it can't be the ending.
01:53:04.140 Yeah.
01:53:04.400 And in the end, again, I'm going to wreck it.
01:53:07.560 But you don't want to watch a Robert De Niro movie or a series.
01:53:11.900 My God, it took me six hours to go through this thing.
01:53:15.260 My wife was away.
01:53:16.460 So it was me and the dog and Bob De Niro.
01:53:19.220 So I'm watching this thing.
01:53:21.960 And at the end, he says, no, you know, what's going to heal us is transparency and knowing
01:53:28.040 who the bad guys are and the good guys.
01:53:31.120 And so here are the bad guys.
01:53:32.620 And he's standing in a joint session of Congress.
01:53:34.980 And he says, the guy behind me, the Speaker of the House, he's one of the bad guys.
01:53:38.920 And everybody's, whoa.
01:53:39.940 And he says, and people on this side of the aisle and that side of the aisle.
01:53:43.720 And he starts naming names.
01:53:44.860 And I'm like, Bob, I don't know why you're crazy.
01:53:49.080 I really don't know what you're so upset about, because that's, I think that if that's what
01:53:54.080 the left feels like, that's what the right feels like, too.
01:53:59.580 You know, that's kind of like where we're like, hey, Kash Patel, go in, release the secrets.
01:54:06.360 Stop.
01:54:07.080 Give us transparent, radical transparency.
01:54:10.360 It's the only thing that's going to heal us.
01:54:13.300 It's interesting.
01:54:14.240 I mean, I think part of it is everyone wants to see themselves as Jimmy Stewart.
01:54:17.500 Like everyone has that.
01:54:19.140 The reason why that movie connected with so many people is because everyone has that
01:54:22.860 correct vibe, right?
01:54:23.940 Everyone thinks that's who they are.
01:54:25.940 Right.
01:54:26.120 And it's like when we say all the time, like, how can you think that going against the machine
01:54:30.400 means going against the Republicans who are completely out of power going back a couple
01:54:34.480 of years?
01:54:35.620 Like, I don't know.
01:54:36.780 Of course, what do you mean when you're going against the machine?
01:54:39.840 You should be standing up against the machine who's in Washington and they're mainly all
01:54:45.320 Democrats.
01:54:45.780 I don't understand how you don't see that.
01:54:47.280 Right.
01:54:47.620 They never do because no one wants to see themselves as working with the machine.
01:54:50.760 Right.
01:54:51.160 But I think it's more than that.
01:54:52.920 I think it is blindness because of their hatred of Donald Trump.
01:54:57.640 And look, you know, you could say Donald Trump is going to turn into a dictator.
01:55:02.360 Well, maybe I don't have your crystal ball.
01:55:04.920 All right.
01:55:05.720 Maybe.
01:55:06.280 I don't think so.
01:55:07.040 I don't think so.
01:55:07.920 He he he he he's he says a lot of things.
01:55:13.340 It's Donald Trump that you should not take seriously.
01:55:17.380 But you you want to understand that he means a direction.
01:55:23.760 Right.
01:55:24.420 And that the seriously literally literally you don't want to take it literally.
01:55:27.840 You want to take it seriously.
01:55:29.160 Got it.
01:55:30.420 So he says a lot of things that you're like, no, he's not going to go in and shut down
01:55:34.720 the press.
01:55:35.940 However, will he go out and expose everything?
01:55:39.720 Yeah.
01:55:40.000 And does he like the right?
01:55:44.260 No.
01:55:46.180 No.
01:55:46.900 Did you see him speak at CPAC?
01:55:49.500 He was like, we're not really conservative.
01:55:51.540 We're we're common sense.
01:55:53.460 And that kind of bothered me because, no, I'm a conservative.
01:55:56.400 It means conserving the things that our founders put together.
01:56:00.320 Then I'm a conservative.
01:56:01.540 But I don't know how he defines it in that moment.
01:56:05.000 But I would I would consider that common sense as well.
01:56:10.000 But I don't understand how can people like Robert De Niro have all this hatred when he's
01:56:18.540 exposing all of this corruption.
01:56:20.660 Now, you can say that's not enough to balance the budget.
01:56:23.680 And you're right.
01:56:24.480 It's not.
01:56:26.000 But it's a good start.
01:56:28.260 How how you could say, look, if people were doing things that they weren't supposed to
01:56:34.320 be doing and funneling money without the you know, and is going to NGOs to a political
01:56:44.400 organization like the Tides Foundation, I think those people should go to jail.
01:56:48.940 And I would say that if they were, you know, a funneling that money to some Republican
01:56:53.780 Tides Foundation.
01:56:55.660 Yeah, I think a lot of it, because you mentioned the Trump derangement syndrome, I think a lot
01:57:00.160 of this comes into that the opposition to Trump is essentially the main part of their
01:57:08.980 identity at this point.
01:57:10.220 Like it's been in.
01:57:11.020 Yeah, it is.
01:57:11.560 It's been.
01:57:12.220 It's who they are.
01:57:12.920 Yeah, it's who they are.
01:57:14.100 Yeah.
01:57:14.340 There's that book, Atomic Habits, that is a big bestseller.
01:57:17.700 And one of the one of the things it talks about in there is to not think about like if
01:57:21.540 you want to do something like you want to be a you want to go and run, you know, a marathon
01:57:24.620 one day, you have to go out there and you have to take those first steps.
01:57:27.200 You have to run a couple of times.
01:57:28.080 You're going to probably feel bad the first few times you run out there.
01:57:30.800 But one of the ways he talks about thinking about it is not thinking about it as I need
01:57:35.040 to go out and run.
01:57:35.780 I need to go out and run.
01:57:37.160 You have to think about it as I am a runner.
01:57:39.580 And if it becomes part of your identity, for example, you have I mean, your level of self
01:57:44.300 control, Sarah, would you say minimal for Glenn?
01:57:46.300 Would you say it's any would you say it's impressive in any way?
01:57:50.040 No, right?
01:57:50.440 Like it's pathetic.
01:57:51.300 It might have been this weekend when my wife was gone.
01:57:53.200 Might have been.
01:57:53.920 We know that if we went to your home right now, there'd be piles of hostess wrappers all
01:57:57.800 around your television.
01:57:58.800 Well, no, she came back late last night.
01:58:00.500 So those are all picked up.
01:58:01.820 Those are all in the garage.
01:58:02.640 Right.
01:58:03.160 But however, there's one thing I know you never, ever, ever screw up on, which is taking
01:58:09.360 a drink.
01:58:10.760 I'm serious.
01:58:11.980 You are a recovering alcoholic.
01:58:13.720 It's how you describe yourself.
01:58:15.100 It is your identity.
01:58:16.580 It is part of it.
01:58:17.520 It's part of it.
01:58:18.300 It's part of your identity.
01:58:19.260 The control against it.
01:58:20.560 The disease does not define me.
01:58:23.860 But the.
01:58:24.840 No, I don't mean it's all of your identity.
01:58:26.640 I'm saying in this part in when it comes to alcohol consumption, it's you don't get up
01:58:30.620 every day and go, I probably won't have a drink today.
01:58:32.460 You are a recovering alcoholic.
01:58:34.440 Yeah.
01:58:34.600 You know.
01:58:35.560 I'm not going to drink.
01:58:36.180 You're not going to drink.
01:58:37.240 And you don't let that enter into your mind that there's any other option.
01:58:40.340 Right.
01:58:40.620 Except when I, you know, bring in a bottle and tempt you.
01:58:42.740 But other than that, generally speaking.
01:58:44.320 And I'm for that.
01:58:45.080 Right.
01:58:45.240 I'm for more of that.
01:58:45.880 You like that.
01:58:46.540 I love the smell of whiskey.
01:58:48.060 I do.
01:58:48.440 It's a problem.
01:58:49.080 Okay.
01:58:49.300 So maybe this is a bad example.
01:58:50.580 But my point here.
01:58:51.020 You're making me want to drink.
01:58:52.580 My point here is that when you have that rule that is like, it's not just some rule
01:58:56.520 like, oh, when you used to say, oh, I won't drink until five o'clock.
01:58:59.560 Yes.
01:58:59.780 That's a rule.
01:59:00.420 A little rule you made for yourself.
01:59:02.240 Now you never drink.
01:59:03.820 You're a recovering alcoholic.
01:59:05.000 It's something you are sober.
01:59:06.240 You've been sober for this amount of time.
01:59:07.600 I'm going to drink if you don't get this back to Trump derangement syndrome.
01:59:11.600 The point is for a lot of these celebrities, opposition to Trump is the same as you're a recovering
01:59:19.220 alcoholic.
01:59:19.940 Yes.
01:59:20.060 They just see it as a central part of their identity.
01:59:23.220 And if they are proven wrong, it not only overturns some point they made on television,
01:59:28.920 it overturns their entire identity when it comes to politics.
01:59:32.380 Because they don't, they haven't, they haven't allowed for any other option.
01:59:37.500 They haven't allowed for, I mean, look, I hated the, I mean, I didn't mind the Republican
01:59:42.000 party.
01:59:42.460 I thought the Republicans in this whole, you know, let's go march off to war and save the
01:59:46.740 world.
01:59:47.420 30 years ago, I was all for that.
01:59:49.500 I was like, yeah, that's because we're right.
01:59:51.800 You got to leave an option, you know, a door open to new information going, ah, you know,
01:59:57.740 I think I got to take the exit here.
01:59:59.520 Yeah.
01:59:59.700 Understand your fallibility.
02:00:01.000 Yes.
02:00:01.360 I mean, we've made thousands of points about Donald Trump.
02:00:03.400 Some of them, I think we're really, really right.
02:00:04.940 Some of them were wrong.
02:00:05.880 And we've talked about those that were wrong.
02:00:07.620 Uh, it's important to be able to allow yourself to understand that sometimes you, you're not
02:00:11.980 right on something and it shouldn't be this thing that you possess and hold to your heart.
02:00:16.440 Like it's your religion.
02:00:17.840 That's where they are.
02:00:19.120 Like, well, God's got to be, you know, God is real.
02:00:21.820 And I, if, if he's not, then my whole life dissolves.
02:00:24.420 That's where they are with Trump.
02:00:25.780 Trump is evil.
02:00:26.680 Trump is Hitler.
02:00:27.620 And if he's not Hitler, I've, my entire life has been a waste.
02:00:30.960 That's how they think about it.
02:00:32.340 And I don't think they can come out and understand.
02:00:35.000 I really, I saw that movie and I thought, you know, I'd have to hit him with a tranquilizer
02:00:39.360 dart first, but I'd love to sit down and talk to him because I'm like, I don't understand
02:00:43.540 what you have a problem with.
02:00:44.700 Cause that's, I'm, I'm for all of those things that you had in the movie.
02:00:47.480 I'm for all of those things that you, that you were pre, I think that you were trying
02:00:51.020 to preach as your message.
02:00:52.640 I don't, I don't get it, Bob.
02:00:54.440 I mean, and he'd have a really dumb response to you.
02:00:57.340 Yeah, he would.
02:00:57.820 I mean, it's not worth having that conversation because it wouldn't be an honest one.
02:01:00.700 But anyway, let me tell you about cozy earth going home at the end of the day, feel like
02:01:05.220 you're stepping into your own private world, a place surrounded by your family.
02:01:09.200 You know, the, the, uh, relax, relaxation, if you can get past some of the things that
02:01:15.360 the family is doing, boy, I am so I'm really torn.
02:01:19.460 My kids have just moved, uh, all my kids.
02:01:23.360 I've got probably about six more weeks before my, my daughter moves out.
02:01:27.560 And so it's just me, Tanya and the dog.
02:01:29.820 And it is, I'm, I'm torn on this because I am really glad their, uh, teenage years are

02:03:14.320 We, we have to start seeing real numbers and there's a story in the wall street journalist
