00:00:00.000 we're learning all new words and all new things here today hillary yes thank you so much um when
00:00:05.100 you discover something that really works uh to solve a problem in your life you grab onto that
00:00:09.320 thing and try not to let go that's how glenn and i both feel about uh rough greens and especially
00:00:15.740 you know i have president miles my dog who is 147 000 years old at this point i had to build a
00:00:21.620 little ramp down from the door because he can't step down like the four inch gap anymore because
00:00:25.760 he's he's very old and you know but here's the thing the guy uh is is is really pepped up his step
00:00:34.080 a little bit and you might not notice that if you've never seen president miles but he moves
00:00:37.420 he went from very very slow to slightly less slow and that's a big difference uh and i think you know
00:00:42.140 at least a good chunk of that is because of rough greens rough greens is a supplement they sprinkle
00:00:46.300 on the dog food and dogs love it uh they love it right out of the gate they just want to eat it
00:00:50.860 because they like it but it helps to get them all the nutrients and stuff that they need in their dog
00:00:55.300 right now you can get a free trial bag of rough greens for your dog to try out all you have to
00:00:59.980 do is pay free shipping all right so you can pay the shipping but the bag is free roughgreens.com
00:01:04.700 slash becker 833 glenn 33 it's 833 glenn 33 call today
00:01:25.300 you can't stand up straight and hold the line
00:01:35.300 you can't stand up straight and hold the line
00:01:39.300 what you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment
00:02:03.780 this is the glenn back program
00:02:07.460 it's pat and stew in for glenn today
00:02:13.180 poor little baby lost his voice last night and he can't talk isn't that so sad and the best part is
00:02:19.580 no matter what i say about him today he can't do anything about it so it's gonna be a fun day
00:02:24.420 uh 888-727-BEC is our number we'll go through what happened in georgia last night and
00:02:28.960 we're gonna start with american manufacturing supply chains china a lot of things we've learned
00:02:36.080 all too much about over the past couple of years we'll get into that here in just a second
00:02:40.320 we've talked about the uh the tuttle twins books for a while now and i can't tell you how much i love
00:02:50.180 these books i have two kids nine and 11 years old and the books that they often get are they're just
00:02:56.540 not they're just they're trash basically the tuttle twins books are a totally different approach
00:03:01.020 because they're teaching really important foundational lessons to your kids through fun
00:03:06.860 and amazing stories that they really love things about like how to build a business is kind of in
00:03:12.460 the middle of a book that they really love a story and they want you to read it to them over and over
00:03:16.460 again and they're learning important things the true founding of america how free markets work
00:03:21.580 how big government will always become oppressive eventually now there's only a few days left to
00:03:26.700 order these books before the shipping deadline for the holidays if you want to get them before
00:03:30.140 christmas do not wait go to tuttletwinsbeck.com get these books these just great books for your kids
00:03:36.380 it really makes a difference you need to order soon to beat the shipping deadline don't wait
00:03:40.540 tuttletwinsbeck.com it's tuttletwinsbeck.com
00:03:44.540 so i want to bring in uh byard winthrop uh this is a really interesting conversation i can't wait to
00:03:52.780 talk to you byard thanks so much for coming in by the way thanks for having me uh you flew in from
00:03:56.380 san francisco last night did they did they make you do you have to have a passport now you don't yet
00:04:01.740 no no it's still still free flight good that's good to hear uh you run american giant uh this is
00:04:07.900 a company we've talked about for a while here on the on the show and we've you know been really
00:04:12.540 impressed i as just a selfish person just really like your hoodies uh so that's that's something
00:04:17.500 totally separate uh from what you do but you you run a company and you you manufacture clothing
00:04:25.420 and this used to be sort of a foundational part of america it was something that i don't know it's
00:04:30.700 how the country was built and more and more as we go on we hear all the time you can't do it anymore
00:04:35.900 it's impossible you can't have um you can't make your clothes and source everything in america and all
00:04:41.340 those difficult steps you can't have americans built make the clothes certainly because it's 0.59
00:04:46.300 impossible yet you you seem to do it first of all how do you do it uh and secondly why did you think
00:04:52.700 that was important yeah well you know it's easy to forget now but 40 years ago about 95 percent more
00:04:59.420 than 95 percent of the clothes that we bought were made in in uh in america which is hard to believe
00:05:04.700 today because that the numbers almost flipped yeah and and in some ways as you're sort of mentioning it
00:05:09.740 that's the trajectory of manufacturing generally that we've we have deprioritized the making of
00:05:14.220 things in the u.s over the last 40 years and and i've been involved in manufacturing consumer products
00:05:20.620 for most of my career and if you spend enough time doing that and i too sort of participated in a lot
00:05:25.420 of the offshoring stuff and you do it and and eventually i think two things begin to become really
00:05:30.540 clear one is you get really disconnected from the product you make and and that i think particularly for me
00:05:36.860 translated into um a lack of uh proximity to it stewardship about it um intimacy about the product
00:05:44.940 that we were making and that was super important to me but just as importantly you see the the the
00:05:49.980 factories and the towns that you're leaving and my point of view is that that's happened too much over
00:05:55.580 the last 40 years that that there's a lot of communities urban and rural that need good viable
00:06:00.380 dignified jobs and um we've made a decision to shift too much of that stuff overseas and and i i
00:06:05.580 i felt we could do something about it in apparel it was it was a relatively easy thing to to
00:06:11.100 reshore and to make domestically and so i decided it's something i wanted to do i didn't
00:06:14.540 i didn't know if it would be a big business or not but i knew it was the kind of business that i
00:06:17.340 wanted to run so made that decision about 10 years ago and started the company it's interesting
00:06:21.980 because i think over the last couple of years we have learned way too much about your business
00:06:25.580 i don't want to know i don't want to know that much about your business i want other people to do
00:06:29.260 that right i've got enough to worry about in my life but we've learned so much about supply chains
00:06:33.740 uh somewhat infamously i bought a car in august 2021 that just showed up a few weeks ago
00:06:41.100 right it was for over 14 months yeah waiting for a car to show up
00:06:47.020 i think one of the interesting parts about trying to manufacture something here in america is not just
00:06:52.700 what might happen to your employees it goes down the line like these this this sort of stuff affects
00:06:59.660 people all over the country in all sorts of different lines of work how do you how do you
00:07:05.020 when you when you step back how do you think about that well what's interesting about what you just
00:07:08.780 said is is that you know i think as we've become disconnected from the people and the places that
00:07:13.340 make things you really do begin to take for granted uh what all the skill and talent and complexity
00:07:20.220 that goes into the making of the things that we consume um and my feeling is that we have gotten
00:07:26.860 to a place where we order something online it arrives on our doorstep a couple of days later and and when
00:07:32.940 that breaks that highly complicated supply chain breaks uh bad things happen and and and i think that
00:07:39.580 there's there is the to me there is a real importance with reconnecting us back to how we make things and
00:07:46.060 what goes into making a car or a sweatshirt for that matter um they're complicated things they they're
00:07:50.700 and in the in the the symphony of activity that has to come together to make that happen is remarkable
00:07:56.140 and to me there's an importance of having a lot of that back and closer to consumers so they understand
00:08:01.900 what goes into making those things and the position we've gotten ourselves in with this highly
00:08:06.780 complicated really fragile supply chain that's got us dependent on you know borders and tankers and oceans and
00:08:13.420 and uh and international relationships that all get pretty difficult when things don't go precisely
00:08:18.940 as planned yeah you know we were just talking about the tunnel twins books a second ago and and uh
00:08:23.580 they have one about i pencil the famous uh economic uh essay and it it's basically the story of how a
00:08:31.100 pencil gets made and it sounds like the most boring right pencil who cares but so many people have to be
00:08:36.620 able to do so many things yeah to make that happen yeah the symphony is a really good word to describe it
00:08:42.540 yeah i mean the pencil the the paint the metal the the wood the graphite all the things that are
00:08:48.540 required to go into that right and um you know i i we've got a privilege as a company to to be around
00:08:54.300 that all the time and it does i don't know i just there's something very satisfying about you know
00:08:59.340 reconnecting with the fact that the american workforce and capability is alive and well um we've just sort
00:09:05.180 of abandoned it in a lot of ways by by just chasing you know what we call internally cheap and cheapest
00:09:11.260 means of production lowest regulations wherever we possibly can and in some ways that's the great
00:09:15.420 irony right that we as a as a country we've put in place so many fantastic principles about human
00:09:21.420 rights and worker safety and and minimum wage laws and all these things that protect workers
00:09:26.780 and celebrate workers and yet we let our largest brands skirt those and and go overseas and and
00:09:32.540 and chase the cheapest means of production with the lowest the lowest regulations and that's a that's
00:09:37.100 that balance has got to get corrected i think yeah yeah and it not only affects americans it affects
00:09:41.900 people overseas as well i mean china is a good example of this right we've seen you know from a
00:09:47.580 geopolitical sense all the effects that have gone on with china over the over the past few years uh
00:09:52.540 and the you know all you know with the covet and and all of these other things that have gone on
00:09:58.380 um but the manufacturing piece of this is really important right we we are sending almost all of our
00:10:03.500 manufacturing to china and india and they don't have standards for their workers we see how they
00:10:09.180 treat their own people is there a part that we should really be rethinking here not even just from
00:10:15.900 a global competition sense but just from a humanitarian sense i think so it kind of comes down to
00:10:21.740 you know whether we believe our values are truly universal values or not and and i think there is an
00:10:26.460 inconsistency with holding domestic manufacturing businesses to very high standards but then allowing all the
00:10:32.300 uh the work for those factories uh chase the means of production elsewhere and you know i think you
00:10:38.220 know the the the the case the case for globalization is a pretty obvious and elegant one if your
00:10:45.020 optimization is around growing shareholder value and and hitting quarterly earnings reports it's a lot
00:10:50.300 less clear if you think about constituents beyond just your your quarterly earning statements and if you
00:10:54.540 think about um brands that live through their values that uh that employ americans that transfer
00:11:00.140 good skills down throughout their their workforce so i i think there's a big conversation to have
00:11:05.020 there i think that we you know there's a fascinating thing happening now with textiles in jinjiang which
00:11:09.260 is the far uh western province in china that grows almost all the chinese cotton there's awful things 1.00
00:11:14.620 going on there with minority muslims and forced labor and um and it's just a good example of apples in 1.00
00:11:19.980 the middle of this with their with their the things that are going on with foxconn that a good example of
00:11:23.660 businesses that are trying to strike this uncomfortable balance with what they're instagramming
00:11:29.340 about um versus the way that they're actually making the things that they sell all right and
00:11:33.180 i think those you know that's that's an that is an uncomfortable place to be and i think that we've
00:11:37.500 all got a role to play right i mean consumers have a role to play brands have a role to play policy
00:11:40.940 makers have a role to play but i do think we need to come together a little bit and have
00:11:44.300 the conversation around what do we care about and to the extent that we care about it a lot do we want
00:11:49.660 to apply those standards universally both to the you know our supply chain decisions our trade
00:11:54.460 agreements are are what our consumers have access to and understand yeah i do think it's something
00:11:59.260 that we need to start to think about more thoroughly we are sort of told that this supply chain thing is
00:12:04.940 not over that we're going to be facing delays and this is just kind of our new normal this is how
00:12:10.540 we're going this is how it's going to be in america now maybe we should learn to be more like europe
00:12:14.140 and just expect delays all the time first of all i mean is that what you're seeing out there
00:12:19.580 and is that the right way to look at this should we just be accepting this new normal yeah i hope
00:12:23.260 not i mean you know it's a good it's a good that's a good pitch for american manufacturing right i mean
00:12:28.620 we've actually been lucky enough to navigate so we make most of the stuff we make are t-shirts and
00:12:33.020 sweatshirts that's the bulk of our line we make blue jeans we make flannel shirts make other things
00:12:37.100 almost all of that comes through a southeastern supply chain carolina's uh and that that area from cotton 0.82
00:12:42.300 all the way through um so for almost all of the pandemic we've been able to navigate our supply
00:12:46.700 chain stuff without a hitch and that's not just proximity and not having to deal with challenges
00:12:51.500 of overseas covet restrictions and other things it's also that we've got deep relationships with
00:12:56.140 the the supply chain that we work with and so we were able to work in real concert with our yarn
00:13:01.100 providers and our knitters and our spinners and our dyers and so it's been you know i think that's a
00:13:07.180 good example of of some of the importance of having a onshore capability across the manufacturing sector
00:13:12.620 so that you're not so exposed internationally to the the the uh the breaks that are inevitably
00:13:18.220 going to continue to come in my opinion yeah it's it's understandable and i think there's a
00:13:23.660 there's that weird line that i think we all have to walk here because you know look i i have some
00:13:27.980 sympathy for these companies when they say hey like we can't pay american workers what you know what the
00:13:34.620 new you know minimum wages even here in the united states we we can go over there we can save 80
00:13:40.220 percent people need cheap clothing and they need to be able to and i understand some of that i have
00:13:45.660 sympathy for at some level but like you can't just abandon the american way of doing things how do you
00:13:53.500 get to a point where you can pay i mean you guys pay your employees a good wage and you know we're told
00:14:00.540 that that's just not possible how do you do that and still make a company work yeah it's sort of an
00:14:05.980 incomplete conversation right so i get asked a lot about minimum wage jobs and how i think about
00:14:10.300 minimum wage and in my response to that basically is it's an incomplete question we all we all want
00:14:14.940 to pay american workers as much as we possibly can right i mean that that's the objective we all want
00:14:18.860 people to be living good dignified lives with good incomes but if at one point we are we are enacting
00:14:24.700 minimum wage laws and raising minimum wages at the same time that we're saying let's all the
00:14:29.260 manufacturers the customers of that manufacturing jobs go overseas and avoid those minimum wage jobs all
00:14:33.740 we're doing is penalizing the domestic workforce ultimately and so i think the way you do it is
00:14:38.860 that you begin to think about trading partners through the lens of of people that share our
00:14:43.100 values you know there's there's the current administration's talking a little bit about
00:14:46.220 this concept of friend shoring which is in some ways a carry forward from the trump administration about
00:14:51.100 about doing business with business with countries that share our values and not doing businesses with
00:14:54.940 countries that don't you know if you think about the american marketplace it's the most it's the biggest
00:15:00.620 most valuable marketplace on earth and yet the cost of entry to it is basically zero we allow everybody
00:15:05.420 to participate in our in our marketplace and i think that we ought to ask the question whether
00:15:08.220 that's the right thing to do and if you make it so that it is a bit more difficult to avoid what i think
00:15:14.300 are basic american values in your manufacturing choices uh you're gonna you're gonna encourage
00:15:19.900 reshoring in a way that is going to address the labor question that you're getting at i think really
00:15:23.980 effectively all right it's really interesting question you have a couple more minutes to hang out all
00:15:27.820 right uh let me take 10 seconds here all right 60 seconds here to do a a quick uh break here
00:15:32.540 lawrence wrote in about his dog's experience with rough greens he says i bought my dog many different
00:15:37.100 kinds of supplements over the years she would eat a little bit of it but not very much usually she
00:15:41.340 just kind of shied away from it but when she comes to when it comes to rough greens not only does she
00:15:45.420 eat enthusiastically but she'll finish by licking the bowl clean she has more energy now and it's a treat
00:15:50.700 for her as well thank you rough greens is not a dog food it's a supplement uh developed by a
00:15:55.740 naturopathic dr dennis black that you sprinkle on the dog food chock full of vitamins minerals
00:16:01.100 probiotics antioxidants you name it and if it's healthy for your dog it's probably in rough greens
00:16:06.220 and most dogs love it they will go crazy for it i know my dogs do the folks at rough greens are so
00:16:10.300 confident that your dog is going to love it that they have a special deal going for you right now go

00:16:26.780 833 glenn 33 give them a call today 10 seconds station id
00:16:41.980 talking to byard winthrop uh he is the uh he's the big the big wig what's your official title
00:16:46.220 over there founder founder i guess the founder is the best one to have i think that's the best one
00:16:51.580 to have uh the of american giant a great clothing company if you don't know them if you've never had
00:16:55.980 one of them i mean look you're it's around christmas a great time to pick up something from american giant
00:17:00.220 um and i think as you kind of hear as we talk you have a different perspective on the on the country than
00:17:06.300 i think a lot of these big companies do um is it how much of this has to be because i i am we come in
00:17:13.820 here every day and we talk about issues and and things that really matter to us and what i think
00:17:20.140 a lot of people engage with is you know you have these beliefs about the the country the foundations
00:17:26.140 the the the this that this is a special place it's an exceptional place but putting that into practice
00:17:34.380 really living that life is really hard what do you say to a company that's on the fence here that's
00:17:39.340 thinking like hey maybe i'll pull some of my manufacturing back to the united states what
00:17:44.540 going you're the one who's experienced this what do you say to them well yeah so i think a couple of
00:17:50.060 sort of just sort of framing reactions to that one is for public companies it's really hard because
00:17:55.020 public companies are are in the cycle like a lot of our elected officials where they're thinking very
00:17:58.860 short term they're thinking quarter to quarter to quarter and quarter to quarter increases in in labor
00:18:04.540 rates or the cost of thread matters a ton and so it's a it's a tall ask for public companies
00:18:09.820 private companies it's a different matter and i think to the to those companies i think um
00:18:15.340 to the extent that they can start and begin to use uh american labor for small parts of
00:18:21.100 their offerings and across the manufacturing sector it has a huge impact we had the benefit in some
00:18:26.540 ways that 10 years ago when i started american giant i made a decision that we were going to make
00:18:31.260 it all domestically and that was kind of that was the framework that i lived within and so that made
00:18:36.620 every decision that followed pretty easy it became about how do we do that as well and as effectively
00:18:40.380 as we can um for companies that have that used to be domestically made like basically all apparel
00:18:44.780 companies and they now have offshore to reshore again i think there's a there's a perception that
00:18:50.860 the american workforce and manufacturing capability is is not there that's wrong there's a tremendous
00:18:56.540 amount even in textiles which has been hard hit the hardest about offshoring there's a tremendous
00:19:00.940 amount of viability within textiles and it's a big part of what that industry is lacking our customers
00:19:07.020 that commit to it and so if you had big brands that said look we're going to be here we're going to
00:19:10.380 order our line of t-shirts or our line of v-neck t-shirts some small piece but we're going to stick
00:19:15.340 to it for a while um that would be a huge boon to manufacture because these businesses need that
00:19:19.820 reliability so i think that that's what i would say is try it try it with socks try it with t-shirts
00:19:24.380 try it with something um give the supply chain a shot be a part of the solution right your customers
00:19:29.660 will give you credit for it they'll appreciate it um but it's a more complicated question for the for
00:19:33.820 the public companies i think and and and that's not to say that i think a lot of them are interested
00:19:37.820 in in being a force for good but it's just we've created a system that makes it hard to do that and
00:19:42.300 so um i think we've got to look at other ways to create space for those businesses to make better
00:19:47.100 decisions hmm um we got about a minute and a half left here what's your level of optimism
00:19:54.220 for america i'm pretty optimistic really i have i have trouble i am so so i hear what you're saying
00:20:00.220 but here's why i'm optimistic i think that there is a growing sense among just the just average
00:20:06.060 americans that are feeling frustrated with what's going on in dc i feel like they're frustrated what's
00:20:10.380 going on with tech they're frustrated with going on with a lot of the big in our case big apparel brands
00:20:14.860 that are making decisions that seem to be self-serving and they're less about the country and less about
00:20:18.460 the average americans and i think as people gather their voice and they make decisions about directing
00:20:22.060 their dollars towards things they care about they get more active during the election cycles
00:20:25.820 i think you're going to see a change and i i share some of your pessimism but it's short-term
00:20:29.100 pessimism for me it's long-term optimism i just believe in the country and i believe in
00:20:32.860 our ability when we're when we're seeing something that we think is nonsense we eventually throw it out
00:20:36.860 and start fresh and so i think it's gonna take a bit of patience but i'm feeling optimistic about it
00:20:41.180 yeah you know i i think you know when i really think about it from a grand you know grand scheme here like
00:20:47.580 i think in the grand at the end of the day it's a great country it's still a lot of the great things
00:20:51.820 happen we've you know changed the world right that's right so there's a lot to be optimistic
00:20:57.020 about but then i read the news and so i need to stop doing that no more news for me and maybe keep
00:21:01.820 some context around it you know remember that you remember history remember the civil war remember jfk
00:21:06.620 remember all the things we've been through that have been so difficult and this one seems pretty rough
00:21:10.540 but i do believe that average americans eventually get fed up enough to act and i think that's what is
00:21:15.260 required i think it's happening right now i think there's just increasing activity going on that i'm
00:21:19.500 i'm excited about and i think uh i think in a weird way covet has kind of jarred us all out of our
00:21:24.060 slumber a little bit and got us thinking about more complex issues that are relevant to americans and
00:21:28.380 i think people are getting conscious about it so yeah it's very true mark winthrop uh he's american

00:22:58.860 later which seems impossible that it's been that long there are still people dying from 9 11 related
00:23:03.980 illnesses with only two states mandating k to 12 learning about it we've got a whole generation 1.00
00:23:09.100 of kids coming up who know little to nothing about one of our nation's darkest days and a day when the
00:23:14.860 courage of the american spirit really was shining the brightest that's why the tunnel to towers 9 11
00:23:20.540 institute is so important it provides educators with non-fiction resources on 9 11 for kids grades k
00:23:27.420 through 12 including scripted social studies lessons and activities plus the institute has

00:24:21.900 it's pat and stew for glenn today who's a little bit under the weather lost his voice again i hear
00:24:28.540 yes yeah and i guess for this particular industry that's that's something that's important i haven't
00:24:34.220 done the research on it yeah yeah but i guess you have to have have one huh to do shows really yes
00:24:39.740 difficult to do it without what if you did sign language yeah and i i mean that should be okay it
00:24:44.300 sounds like it would be okay i don't know why they say the experts though say that there's some
00:24:48.620 consensus on on it and you're not you know i don't know you know these scientists yeah
00:24:53.260 i just blow off whatever they say exactly it's always a good the right thing to do all right uh
00:24:58.540 we have a uh uh the election last night to to discuss yeah a little bit went about like we expected
00:25:06.460 really it did it did it seemed like it was basically around where the polls said it would be
00:25:11.660 it was basically around where the last election was rafael warnock currently with over 95 of the vote
00:25:17.980 tabulated 51.4 percent of the vote herschel walker 48.6 percent of the vote about a hundred thousand
00:25:24.860 votes separating the two candidates you know really the the runoff game is about turnout and you see
00:25:33.980 when you look at the red counties i mean you look at the counties really across the board they kind of
00:25:38.620 came out about percentage wise the same way i mean you don't see much of a change what you do see is
00:25:46.060 that the the turnout was a little bit better in in blue areas than it was in red areas
00:25:52.380 but it was really close it was a really close race the entire time democrats outspent republicans by
00:25:59.100 massive amounts massive amounts there's some it was four to one yeah four to one and spending
00:26:05.580 something like three to one and just whether you'd see an ad or not uh what's incredible is
00:26:11.020 1.4 billion dollars have been spent on just four races in the state since the beginning of 2020
00:26:20.780 one point in georgia 1.4 billion dollars i guess we're supposed to give stacy abrams the credit for
00:26:26.700 that but like you spend like that that and it's just absolutely incredible i can't imagine how sick of
00:26:34.780 politics people in georgia are right now oh yeah i was just watching was it georgia georgia georgia
00:26:40.460 tech i think and during that broadcast i don't know all of the ads were about in mostly warnock but
00:26:47.340 a few herschel ads too uh and i was sick of it just from watching that one game i can't imagine if you
00:26:54.220 live in georgia you must have been so bombarded by that well i mean i think we all have that like
00:27:00.140 part of the election cycle where we get sick of election ads that happens to everybody but if you
00:27:06.140 think about georgia they had had it twice they had it here right with a runoff they had it in 1.00
00:27:13.980 november with the main election and the whole lead up to that in purple at a purple state with
00:27:18.460 really tight elections sort of across the board with the exception maybe of governor then remember
00:27:24.300 they also had a runoff in 2021 from the 2020 election so they've had these four elections
00:27:32.620 since november 2020 every one of them has been incredibly expensive non-stop ads all the time
00:27:41.100 when does normal life come back for these poor people i guess now i guess this is the beginning
00:27:45.500 of it unfortunately their normal life has rafael warnock as their senator and it's uh it's
00:27:51.340 look it's tough really all uh all of these there were several winnable races here that republicans
00:27:57.020 did not pull off and you know herschel walker i think for being a first time candidate
00:28:04.220 did maybe better than expected you know he he was not he wasn't a disaster as far as uh you know the
00:28:10.300 debate went and you know he had some of the big scandal stories but i don't think that was what turned
00:28:14.940 this election it just it's tough to win in in a in georgia now it's no longer the republican
00:28:20.940 stronghold it once was it probably should be fairly considered a straight purple state at this point
00:28:26.700 and you have to try to you know find the right candidates for the right markets and maybe a
00:28:31.740 purple state you got to think a little bit differently as you as you roll your candidates
00:28:36.700 out there but you know walker i think you know lucky i think he can be proud of of his efforts here
00:28:42.540 it's just a it's just a really devastating thing that a state like georgia would have such a radical
00:28:48.540 like rafael warnock sure is yeah they don't deserve that america doesn't deserve that right but here he
00:28:55.020 is uh he's in and this time it's for six years instead of two yeah so that hurts because i think a
00:29:01.740 lot of people were like ah i mean look it's 50 50 anyway at the worst this is this is an argument as
00:29:08.700 to why maybe the republicans didn't win here i think if the senate if the control of the senate
00:29:15.100 stood on georgia let's say they would have picked off another one of these races and it was only 49
00:29:20.300 seats for democrats they needed the 50th i think war uh walker may have won because i think there's a
00:29:26.860 there's an attitude from republicans was like well we already lost the senate what's the point and of
00:29:31.660 course the point is the starting uh starting line for every election here for the next two cycles
00:29:37.660 you know we talked about this when it comes to the when it came to the 2022 election the starting
00:29:43.420 line in the senate was 36 29 with democrats in the lead those are all the seats that were not up for
00:29:49.100 election so they started with a seven seat lead and of course with kamala harris as the vice president
00:29:56.300 it's really an eight seat lead uh seat lead so you you had they had a lot of ground to pick up to try
00:30:03.180 to take control the senate's why it was so difficult so now we go into the 2024 campaign this seat that
00:30:08.700 could have been one that the republicans had already banked that was going to be in that same starting
00:30:13.020 line calculation unfortunately is now gone and the same thing with all these other close races like 0.97
00:30:18.300 you know arizona and pennsylvania and all these races that we've been talking about that the republicans
00:30:24.220 wound up losing that's where it really hurts the 51 seat majority thing will help with committees
00:30:30.780 it will help give them a little breathing room around you know joe manchin or kirsten cinema in a
00:30:35.820 in a particular vote maybe it's not all that important though because the republicans got the house they
00:30:41.420 can block a lot of those 50 seat bills yeah but when it comes to judicial nominees that's going to be
00:30:46.940 big yeah that's going to be a big one and it was why they really needed to win i'm really worried
00:30:51.100 about you know the packing of the supreme court like that would be bad that would be that would be
00:30:56.300 catastrophic that would be bad i'm kind of hoping they don't get around to that yeah i hope they
00:31:01.980 don't the filibuster thing they theoretically still don't have the votes for because they needed it
00:31:06.700 wasn't a one seat did they eliminate the filibuster yeah right they could good uh they don't currently
00:31:12.460 have the votes for it but you know i always say this to people if you are sitting back and saying you
00:31:18.540 know what joe manchin will save us yeah you are really playing with fire because joe manchin will
00:31:25.660 not save you no he there were two bills two bills that the the democrats uh democrats wanted to get
00:31:31.740 through with 50 votes and we heard a lot of whining we heard a lot of op-eds we heard a lot of comments
00:31:37.420 from people like joe manchin oh inflation's too high we just can't spend anymore and i don't know i guess
00:31:44.540 there's some people who are listening in west virginia know these people in west virginia who
00:31:49.500 some for some reason fall for this nonsense over and over again i doubt there's many in this audience
00:31:54.700 that do it but they probably know people who are conservative and say well joe manchin's pushing back
00:32:00.540 he's the democrat that cares he's the guy that's going to care about inflation and the economy and it's
00:32:05.580 like what why wound up happening they still passed two bills they still got it done yep they didn't
00:32:14.540 care about inflation at all we still all had to pay the price for that yes some of the bills were
00:32:20.060 slightly smaller than maybe they would have been without his whining and constant now op-eds and all
00:32:25.740 the credit he takes for being a maverick maybe we saved a couple of dollars really is that really is
00:32:32.860 is there any any real value in that there's no reason west virginia has a democratic senator 0.97
00:32:41.340 that is right absolutely ridiculous it is ridiculous it's it's as bad as alaska having a very very uh 0.95
00:32:52.220 irritating republican uh so and they now have a democratic congresswoman oh yeah right so it's right 0.97
00:33:00.540 equally but i mean i think even alaska though has i don't know there's some there's there's
00:33:06.620 something in the water in some places in alaska it's probably from fracking probably it's probably
00:33:12.620 fracking's fault yeah but like they kind of bend their own way at times you know and west virginia
00:33:17.980 canon as well they've they've elected far too many democrats over the years with this sort of like
00:33:22.500 reputational our democrats are different thing but like donald trump won west virginia by 50 points
00:33:29.180 like there's there's no reason to have a democratic senator in that state and by the way just a quick
00:33:38.740 reminder we can rectify that situation in 2024 that can happen this does not have to be reality
00:33:45.260 in fact this would be one you'd really expect republicans to be able to pick up if they don't
00:33:50.880 completely screw it up but that was the talk about this election how many times did we talk pat over the
00:33:55.480 over the past couple of years republicans have a great opportunity here blah blah blah blah if
00:34:00.220 they don't screw it up which they managed to do virtually every time yes here we are and they
00:34:06.580 did it again but i mean at least we got the house it's or they got the house and that's one of the
00:34:15.200 things that's really irritating me right now about the coverage of the election is how democrats are
00:34:20.540 acting as if they just went to 17 and 0 and won the super bowl by 45 points yeah guys relax yeah you
00:34:27.720 had control of the government and now you don't right that is not i understand you think you
00:34:34.600 outperformed everybody's expectations in the last two weeks and i'll grant you that that is what
00:34:39.360 occurred you underperformed everybody's expectations from the summer so i don't know why you're that
00:34:44.420 thrilled about it but okay you you did win a couple seats that were that were border they won a lot of
00:34:50.040 close races they the house is closer than people expected there's something to take from that right 0.76
00:34:56.020 you might be encouraged by been happy about it but they lost the house yeah they had unified control
00:35:01.600 of the government and nancy pelosi said she expected she completely expected to maintain control in the 0.89
00:35:06.780 house she did and you didn't and now she's gone so that's a loss that's a loss and like look a 51
00:35:13.320 seat majority is not something that republic democrats have bragged about this century or
00:35:19.480 even last century right like this they used they were used to getting remembered barack obama got
00:35:24.820 obamacare through with 60 senators which eventually fell to 59 so they had to pass they had to you know
00:35:32.920 pole vault right the bill through uh they lost a seat in massachusetts that bill was so popular but you
00:35:39.960 know scott brown came in after that but they had 60 seats they didn't have to listen at all
00:35:44.640 now they're bragging about 51 they're bragging about losing the house bragging about losing
00:35:52.540 i mean this is like the beto o'rourke approach to politics and acting as if it was a catastrophe
00:35:58.920 right for republicans it wasn't it was we have to step back and say that's true look it's it wasn't
00:36:04.740 that bad and here's the one real positive i think you know i think it was van jones of all people who
00:36:10.980 made this point last night and and he's getting beat up by the left over it but he's right the 0.97
00:36:17.040 republicans are going to look hopefully at themselves and at least take a moment to say what did we do
00:36:20.720 wrong how did this get screwed up what do we need to do next time what candidates can we recruit
00:36:26.420 holy crap what we need to do more we've gone into 2024 republicans have the advantage in 2024 in the
00:36:32.060 senate and they can pick up seats democrats seem to be in the state where like wow this all worked 0.93
00:36:36.920 the crt thing worked wow you know hey let's just keep uh you know grooming kids into all sorts of
00:36:43.200 weird sexual behavior in middle school that's that's people seem to like it and they're not going to
00:36:48.420 examine their approach at all true and that's a really good thing for republicans to the advantage
00:36:54.620 of republicans yeah but we'll see we'll see again they could easily screw it all up oh yeah they're
00:36:59.940 good at this 888-727-BECK all right um let me tell you about patriot mobile man i love patriot mobile

00:38:19.000 as pat and stew for glenn today uh 888-727-BECK so you guys uh you and glenn talked about the
00:38:40.340 brunson adams supreme court case yesterday a little bit talked about it a little bit yesterday yeah a lot
00:38:46.700 of people are very excited about it because um they believe that since congress didn't do their
00:38:54.320 job in investigating the 2020 election at least this is my understanding of it so they didn't they
00:39:00.440 didn't fulfill their oath so 377 representatives could be removed from office including uh the 0.99
00:39:10.160 president of the united states and the vice president of the united states that kind of seems unlikely to
00:39:16.620 me seems like a bit of a long shot and it doesn't seem like there's a mechanism to do that really
00:39:22.840 yeah and you know a lawsuit a lot of hurdles to get over here honestly i said to glenn i was like you
00:39:27.940 know like it's interesting because it is kind of like burning up the online world right now talk about
00:39:32.280 this it is you know and so it's interesting to kind of get familiar with it if the supreme court picks
00:39:37.680 it up then you're going to have a deeper conversation i don't know that you need to go crazy about talking
00:39:42.040 about it at this exact moment like if once once we hear they already had picked it up once we hear
00:39:46.620 oral arguments and then we can kind of like you know they'll you can believe it's a little bit
00:39:52.060 further along i will say you know there's a lot of hurdles right like it's based on this idea that
00:39:57.640 if there's a certain amount of uh desire or uh claim of um of a threat to the constitution that
00:40:08.600 you have to investigate it but there's no clear hurdle as to what that amount would be uh you know
00:40:15.420 i guess the idea is that some some voters or some representatives voted for an investigation
00:40:20.720 so therefore that's enough interest of course like you know then you could have this happening all the
00:40:26.060 time right like every democrat could vote you know you could get 50 democrats to come together to vote
00:40:30.000 for some crazy investigation and and we'd have to to do this each time and the idea that like even if
00:40:35.700 all of there's several other hurdles we don't need to get into the whole thing uh several other very
00:40:40.260 difficult hurdles for for any of this to actually be reality but even if it was like would it be a good
00:40:45.780 idea like think of the the concept of throwing out all these people a lot of them we can't stand so
00:40:52.220 like we're all like yeah throw the bumps out but like the supreme court is kind of in our favor right
00:40:56.900 now uh-huh which is great one when it's not how does this look when when katanji brown jackson
00:41:04.800 is like the six out of the nine justices how does that feel then like there i mean it just doesn't feel
00:41:12.840 like a good road for us to go down uh but that's that's the long and the short of it interesting though
00:41:19.740 interesting i'm surprised that they haven't been thrown out just based on standing that's what they
00:41:24.380 usually do yeah the glenn back program we had a great conversation uh just a little while ago with

00:41:39.980 just you know one of the many reasons why you can't trust a lot of these companies and one of the
00:41:44.720 reasons why we do partner with american giant we really like them i have one of their hoodies it's just
00:41:48.820 awesome it's a great great hoodie it's just incredible it is they think they say what do

00:43:58.300 janet wrote in about her dog's experience with rough greens she says our little rescue girl loves rough
00:44:08.140 greens i feel i fill her kibble bowl and if there's no rough greens in it she sniffs and then goes to
00:44:12.980 the cupboard and just waits until i add it only then will she eat smart girl she's a lot more energetic 0.95
00:44:17.780 and curious now than she was before and she's a lot more playful and her allergies have subdued have
00:44:23.080 subsided a lot thank you so much rough greens listen if you have a dog and you want to give them the
00:44:27.980 best life they can possibly have cable food just doesn't cut it unfortunately it's been sterilized

00:45:06.600 feeling well hopefully he'll be back tomorrow uh in the meantime he's got his rough greens in
00:45:11.620 yeah apparently he's not taking it that's right yeah yeah because you get all the probiotics
00:45:15.940 yeah antioxidants and all that i don't know why he's not he's just not eating enough apparently
00:45:20.080 when it comes to the rough greens we'll get him his nutrients so hopefully we'll be back tomorrow
00:45:23.760 gotta fix that uh amidst all the rightful focus on government censorship and election interference
00:45:29.840 another big story is brewing at the supreme court uh the justices heard oral arguments the other day
00:45:35.980 uh in a case centering on web uh web designer who has religious objections to making websites for
00:45:43.300 same-sex couples this comes up over and over again in colorado because essentially they're they're trying
00:45:51.040 to persecute christians for their beliefs and uh this is all about an agenda not about actually
00:45:57.640 designing a website of course because there's a million people you can turn to and they'll design
00:46:03.400 your website no problem at all is it controversial to say to step back a minute from even that point
00:46:10.980 and say you don't need a website for your wedding i know you think you do you don't this is i know it
00:46:20.180 doesn't matter if you're gay or straight uh you don't need what a website for your wedding i could get
00:46:27.060 married yes and in fact i did right did you have a website in 1985 i did not have a website really
00:46:35.120 yeah isn't that weird yeah that is a little weird in 85 i think it was much more normal to have
00:46:40.080 websites for your wedding but now it just seems a little bit over look post some pictures on your
00:46:45.020 facebook page or whatever i got you know you got instagram throw them on there you don't need
00:46:49.620 you don't that's probably not the point they're making at the supreme court but i just want people
00:46:54.000 to know they don't they don't need to a website for their wedding okay you should have told these
00:46:58.700 guys that that a long time we're solved the whole thing yeah and we we just wouldn't have this issue
00:47:03.420 with the supreme court right now right like and i i do think there is part of that point that is
00:47:09.140 really germane to this case yeah which is you can make an argument like you need food right so if you
00:47:16.040 want to have these conversations about a lunch counter we've obviously talked about this before in the 0.95
00:47:21.720 past shouldn't be able to say well i'm not going to serve eggs to you because you're black and we 0.98
00:47:26.840 all understand that is a completely ridiculous you know position no no place should ever do that 0.99
00:47:32.200 but like when we're talking about a a service that honestly can you even make an argument that you need
00:47:40.600 it i can't i can't come up with an argument that it's a necessary like it should to me there's a
00:47:47.660 better argument to go to the supreme court and say we shouldn't allow people to make wedding websites 0.90
00:47:52.940 like i think we i think we should delete the entire industry if there is one so like i mean it is though
00:47:59.460 i think important when you talk about this when you're talking about art when you're talking about
00:48:03.760 something like a cupcake when you're talking about a a wedding cake when you're talking about a wedding
00:48:10.240 venue these are not life or death matters this is not whether you can get water into your home
00:48:18.040 right like these are totally different things and there should be a completely different standard for
00:48:23.180 them and by the way with the cake maker um jack phillips yeah he's been persecuted almost out of
00:48:29.360 business since what i don't know it's been probably 10 years it's been a long time uh first of all he had
00:48:35.720 the same sex couple that wanted the cake and and he didn't want to make it and they tried to force him
00:48:40.760 to and then they came along and and it was another one it was a uh i don't know a trans issue i think
00:48:46.360 the second time and they knew full well that the guy had these religious convictions but they
00:48:50.500 specifically went after him targeted him yeah they targeted him and they're just persecuting him now
00:48:55.680 and and that's the that's the part of this it's the process is the punishment and the sad thing is
00:49:01.240 the supreme court has not yet made a broad enough ruling that will prevent the religious persecution
00:49:08.220 of this poor guy yeah we were just talking off the air and i was like we know i'm pretty confident
00:49:12.200 in this because roberts it's he's terrible but the actually in this one it's one of his better issues
00:49:17.980 i think that is true however he is responsible as well for making these rulings so narrow
00:49:24.660 stop it the jack phillips thing is a great example of that phillips won yeah he won he won but it was
00:49:31.060 it should be over already it was not enough but they made it super narrow so that the they could
00:49:35.880 continue to bring these cases forward and continue to ruin people's businesses and lives over and over
00:49:42.380 and over and over again and that's what's going on now in the supreme court with this woman who wants 1.00
00:49:47.080 to design wedding websites for some unknown reason uh you know like it's just one of these things where
00:49:52.900 they are same situation they know obviously that what they're doing they're targeting someone with
00:50:00.240 with christian values that they know won't want to do this so they can harass them and harass them
00:50:05.180 and harass them and ruin their lives because even if she wins her life is largely destroyed her
00:50:10.000 business is is on the edge um if it's not completely destroyed and even if the even if the end result is
00:50:18.040 not a good one for the left they get to you know run someone through the ringer and this though i think
00:50:24.400 is going to be the time i hope where they come with a really broad ruling that shows that this stuff is
00:50:29.020 ridiculous and should not continue these laws should be thrown out and it's like we're all against
00:50:33.540 discrimination i'm against a company who would say you know who would discriminate against someone and 0.78
00:50:38.480 not sell them something but like part of this is just recognizing that sometimes the country sort of
00:50:43.340 sucks it's a great country yeah sometimes people don't do the things you want them to do i know it's
00:50:47.400 surprising to hear it is shocking it's shocking a lot of people are shocked by it and colorado has a law 0.98
00:50:54.020 now that protects same-sex couples or trans people uh because of their status what isn't protected
00:51:02.820 according to the lawyers for colorado for the state of colorado is religious liberty because it it doesn't
00:51:09.820 have status wait what i mean you're going against the u.s constitution there yeah so i think this time
00:51:18.380 they really need to rule on the merits of the constitution and the first amendment and and end
00:51:25.500 this torment make this religious people shoot this down it's it's it's gotta stop you know the
00:51:31.360 because there's really double protection here you can't compel someone to say something that they
00:51:37.920 don't believe you can't compel you know i was thinking about this example you know with the kanye west
00:51:42.920 thing that's that's going on right now let's say kanye west gets to the point in his career very
00:51:47.240 maybe very very soon where his entire business is customizing raps for birthday parties and events
00:51:53.740 like you go to kanye's uh birthday raps.com and kanye will work your name into a rap because given
00:52:02.120 his career arc that's probably where this ends up pretty soon and let's just say that's going on
00:52:07.360 and then a jewish person comes to him and says hey can you do my bar mitzvah you know can you give
00:52:13.600 me a song for that should kanye west have to do that we all agree that his his views are terrible
00:52:19.760 on this and and and abhorrent no but you should be able to pick and choose what you do in your
00:52:24.860 business you shouldn't have to say something praising jewish ceremony let right he the free
00:52:30.280 market work that out exactly and you know what you go to somebody else right and everyone realizes
00:52:35.580 if they there's you could go on what's that site uh fiverr.com which has a you know like a bunch of
00:52:42.840 people who are independent doing things all around the world uh you know for uh as little as five
00:52:48.660 dollars that's how they started and so you could have them build you a website they you can get
00:52:52.680 someone to voice over your podcast you can get someone to design you know to do audio editing for
00:52:58.240 you video editing whatever it is all this is available to everybody they will never ask a question about
00:53:04.700 your uh your marriage situation they won't take a stance there's thousands to choose from and that's
00:53:12.340 just one website you go to a bunch of other freelancer sites you can go to another local
00:53:16.720 everyone knows this has nothing to do with the website it's about targeting religious views for
00:53:23.840 destruction that's what it is how do we destroy people's closely held views on religion and you know
00:53:32.220 you don't even have to agree with those views as i said with kanye west he is he is protected by the
00:53:39.140 constitution to not have to to issue compelled speech you can't force him to say something he
00:53:46.720 doesn't agree with you can you can you know abandon you can make him uh just you can destroy his career
00:53:52.500 by not you know frequenting his business you can complain about it loudly you can say all these things
00:53:58.040 about kanye west that are really bad you can use your freedom of speech to to criticize him but you
00:54:03.580 can't make him say he hearts jews because he doesn't and maybe he says he does i guess on that one he does
00:54:11.560 say i love the jews and i love the nazis not not a great point but the point is uh that you you can't
00:54:19.020 even there right pat that is not necessarily a religious view though i maybe there he believes it is
00:54:25.380 but like even if you're just like you know what i you shouldn't have to be able to go to a
00:54:29.440 conservative and force them to say that they like liberals the same way the opposite side that's
00:54:36.040 nothing to do with religion and you're protected by the constitution there add on the religious aspect
00:54:42.260 which is also protected by the constitution two separate areas of the constitution that specifically
00:54:51.240 protect this sort of behavior and this is what the 10th time we've gone through this charade
00:54:55.200 at least it's insane at least uh and you know it's just the just the practical application of
00:55:05.840 uh the free market should deal with this if if you don't want to serve somebody in your restaurant
00:55:12.460 you shouldn't have to and it used to be you didn't have to uh the signs that used to say no shirt no
00:55:19.980 shoes no service okay i and then a lot of times underneath parenthetically it was like we reserve
00:55:26.840 the right to refuse service to anybody yeah well you certainly can't do that now right you can't
00:55:32.040 refuse service to anybody um apparently but if you did let's say you just you had a thing where no
00:55:41.040 minority could come and eat at your restaurant well let the free market run them out of business by 0.99
00:55:47.040 you know when that gets around in the community i'm guessing there's going to be a lot of people
00:55:51.460 who object to that and don't go frequent that restaurant that's how you take care of it right
00:55:58.320 if you're a libertarian that's how you take care of it and that's how just let the market work and
00:56:03.240 you don't need to be a libertarian that's just american yeah it is right you know and and but it's not
00:56:07.540 anymore not not they want to change that they want to change the foundations of our country but
00:56:11.260 those those foundations exist that's the brilliance of capitalism yep it solved these problems this all
00:56:17.460 started you know a million years ago almost um with tribes that were trying to figure out how to not
00:56:25.300 kill each other every time they needed something if one tribe had one resource and the other tribe 0.83
00:56:31.940 didn't they needed to get that resource and the way human beings dealt with that problem for a long
00:56:39.640 long time was to attack they would take their weapons and they would go attack the other tribe and take 0.91
00:56:46.580 the stuff they needed that's how it worked for a long time right and then trade bubbled up and trade
00:56:54.080 became uh the the way that both parties could get what they wanted one party had one resource one party
00:57:00.120 had the other they would swap and everybody was happy and then currency came along to make that
00:57:07.120 exchange much much more smooth and capitalism bloomed from there and it created a situation i mean you
00:57:14.140 can really argue that the basis of capitalism why it exists completely is for you to do business with
00:57:20.640 people you don't like everyone can do business with their friends that's easy right it's easy to be
00:57:27.280 able to find your political allies and the people you hang out with you could trade something that you
00:57:33.200 have to a relative fairly easily the reason why capitalism is exists is so you can go into a
00:57:40.220 restaurant and you have some hardcore biden supporter who's behind the grill who makes you
00:57:45.460 a good meal anyway that's the entire system it's the brilliance of the system and it we are now at the
00:57:53.720 point where the left this shouldn't surprise anybody the left is trying to overturn that they're trying to
00:57:59.000 make it no like no actually you have to agree with all my political viewpoints for you to even have
00:58:02.940 a business they're trying to fundamentally chip away at what built this country that should surprise none
00:58:09.620 of us but it is going on all the time and if they if we allow this to continue especially when you're
00:58:17.860 attacking religion it's another fundamental value here yeah multiple multiple pillars of this country
00:58:24.620 under attack at the same time it's a really important case at the supreme court right now

00:59:59.840 needs to be dealt with and and really this is a long time coming uh shark week
01:00:04.940 it lacks diversity as you know it's almost all about sharks i've noticed yeah but the people who
01:00:12.260 talk about the sharks yeah the there's a lack of diversity there too in addition to not talking
01:00:18.960 about anything but sharks during shark week you know like they're they're not devoting any time
01:00:23.700 to blowfish it's it's really uh it's a problem there's almost trouble no duck-billed platypus
01:00:30.160 almost none representation right shark week which is a real problem for me but not only that
01:00:35.600 apparently men are overrepresented are they they're usually white and a lot of times get this
01:00:43.340 and this is maybe the most egregious okay they're named mike there's too many mics who are shark
01:00:50.400 experts during shark week and i think it's time discovery did something about that what too many
01:00:57.300 mics yes yes is that serious that's serious they're really complaining that too many people
01:01:03.560 are named to mike yes yes they are why do you you don't see the problem with that no i do not see
01:01:11.120 the problem in fact it's completely immaterial is the coverage good do they talk about sharks i mean
01:01:16.220 i would say like i can understand you not liking the idea that too many of your race or gender would
01:01:22.300 be represented on shark week because my guess is that a lot of people are eaten like it's like if
01:01:27.720 you're they're telling stories of people who are attacked by sharks yeah perhaps you don't want to be
01:01:33.300 represented all that well in that particular programming but apparently this is a big issue
01:01:37.980 well the woman who did the big study uh lisa white knack oh my gosh ignoring her own 1.00
01:01:45.200 problematic name there uh loved sharks as a kid and uh apparently watch shark week religiously and uh
01:01:56.340 but then she did this study that found out that lots of the scientists that talk about the sharks
01:02:02.300 are white and they're men and they're named mike yeah that's a you know i will say it's too many
01:02:11.720 mikes of the three claims there uh-huh the one that is most believable to me is mike i feel like
01:02:17.840 there probably are a lot of people named mike a lot of people uh who are named mike happen to get into
01:02:23.180 the um the shark industry industry yes being an expert on sharks why would this matter i i honestly don't
01:02:33.560 know i do not know now we've been told for a million years that stem uh you know stem projects and
01:02:41.380 jobs and science and math and have been overrepresented by men so in theory i assume all those problems
01:02:49.820 aren't sorted out they're still complaining about it constantly uh so i would assume that probably
01:02:53.920 there's a more shark experts and certainly i have found in my general research pat over my lifetime that
01:03:01.520 it's usually dudes that are interested in sharks it does seem like yeah most women aren't usually 1.00
01:03:08.220 life is a good example of a woman who is not interested in shark week whatsoever women are 1.00
01:03:13.400 necessary i feel like watching a giant animal rip the flesh of another uh being apart is more of a
01:03:21.260 male concern like seems like it yeah women tend to like things more like you know i don't know hallmark
01:03:27.940 movies right like i just don't think that you know sharks are really on the interest set of of most
01:03:34.980 women but when the team examined hundreds of shark week episodes that aired between 1988 and 2020
01:03:42.200 um their research claims so that the programming emphasized negative messages about sharks there's
01:03:49.120 another issue lacked useful messaging about shark conservation and overwhelmingly featured white men
01:03:56.160 named mike negative messages about sharks this can't be real lou check it does that say babylon b on
01:04:06.220 the piece of washington post okay well actually babylon b is more credible yes absolutely
01:04:10.820 the glenn back program american financing nmls 182334 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org
01:04:22.420 or a couple weeks away from christmas how does saving seven hundred dollars a month sound right
01:04:26.660 now pretty good pretty good maybe you've got a lot of expenses things like high interest credit card

01:05:37.660 podcast pat gray stupid gear for glenn 888-727-BECK uh joe biden went to arizona before he left 0.96
01:05:54.880 he was actually asked a question by peter doocy that uh made a lot of sense uh doocy asked him 0.95
01:06:02.180 if you're going to the if you're going to a border state why don't you go to the border
01:06:09.180 oh more important things going on
01:06:21.000 really are there more important things i mean i guess are there abortion is the only other thing
01:06:27.020 i can think of that's really more important and he's on the wrong side of that too but the border's
01:06:32.480 pretty important the border is where people are pouring across to the tune of 2.3 million last
01:06:39.180 fiscal year that's just the ones that we encountered how many more were not encountered in places where
01:06:45.820 the border agents aren't and they don't see you and they don't have any contact with you hundreds of
01:06:51.520 thousands if not millions more i'll bet it was three million three and a half million is probably the
01:06:56.240 actual figure on that i mean they don't we don't have any idea how many actual people sneaked across
01:07:02.820 our border last year oh drugs with uh human trafficking i i mean and that's not important to this guy
01:07:11.100 clearly not important he doesn't care doesn't care at all uh but he here's what he said uh last year
01:07:19.660 about the border in october october do you have to visit the southern border i've been there before
01:07:25.160 and i haven't i mean i know it well i guess i should go down but the but the whole point of it is i
01:07:31.960 haven't had a whole hell of a lot of time to get down yeah i've been spending time going around looking
01:07:37.000 at the 900 billion dollars worth of damage done by uh by hurricanes and floods and and weather and
01:07:45.000 traveling around the world but uh i plan on now my wife jill has been down she's been on
01:07:51.080 both sides of the river she's seen the circumstances both sides of the river she's looked into those
01:07:56.420 places you notice you're not seeing a lot of pictures of kids lying on top of one another with uh
01:08:01.740 you know with with with blank with uh with uh um you know uh looks like tarps on top of them
01:08:08.200 i mean does he know anything about anything no is there any topic he has any knowledge on about
01:08:16.360 at all is there any moment where he's like you know here's a well-considered sober opinion about
01:08:22.880 an issue that's well informed does that ever occur why would you think that anybody cares that jill
01:08:29.140 has been there who cares she's not an elected official she can't do anything about this right 1.00
01:08:33.740 uh why would i care if your wife has been to the border or not that doesn't help me that really
01:08:41.880 doesn't um my second cousin twice removed steve lives in san diego and he's seen the border
01:08:53.580 and he looked at it one time and he saw somebody come across so there's that it's so weird really
01:09:03.640 weird you know i will say really weird look do i actually care if joe biden goes to the border
01:09:08.540 no because he would probably screw it up uh he would whatever came out of that would be negative
01:09:13.840 but i like the fact that it makes him squirm though that's what i like about this i don't really need
01:09:19.080 him there yeah i don't really need him at the border he's not going to do anything positive he's
01:09:23.520 going to hide anything negative that's going on i don't know if there's any real reason for him to go
01:09:28.420 there it just shows the lack of interest yeah he doesn't care he doesn't care and you know look
01:09:33.420 again this is a message that's been sent by the country to joe biden is that he doesn't have to
01:09:37.600 care right and debbie dingle another which just seems like a fake name debbie dingle it does seem
01:09:43.840 like you made that up did you make that up i did not okay here's debbie dingle is a real person
01:09:49.900 a real person a real representative talking about biden and the border she doesn't care either
01:09:55.600 would you like to see him visit the border i don't care if he visits the border or not that doesn't
01:10:01.280 he doesn't need to visit the border to know we've got a problem he's got people that report to him
01:10:05.460 every day about what the problem is and sometimes we fixate on these little issues do you think the
01:10:11.220 president doesn't know we got a problem at the border and what the issues are right but not
01:10:16.320 necessary to see it firsthand that's a little issue i i think he knows it's got to be addressed he's
01:10:23.420 gotten the reports he's seen the photos so oh he saw some photos i mean i at some point he may or may not
01:10:29.340 go but i think he knows what's got to get fixed and you've seen him begin that process no one would
01:10:35.300 care if he went to the border if he was actually dealing with the border yeah right like i as i
01:10:39.580 actually care if he goes the point is that he does he's he is not apparently aware that there's a
01:10:46.460 problem there or if he he thinks the problem there is that there's too many border guards on horses
01:10:51.060 whipping people that's what he thinks the problem is that's the issue so i can understand why you'd want
01:10:56.880 him to go because maybe he'd be if you have this really optimistic view of joe biden maybe you'd
01:11:01.980 think wow he's going to be awakened by these you know these images i don't just it's just something
01:11:08.800 to disregard he's not going to be he would just but he's not admitting that there's a problem he's
01:11:13.760 not acknowledging it he's not dealing with it that's why people are asking about it right and he's
01:11:19.160 got more important things to do and he explained that while he was in arizona yesterday um here's what
01:11:24.320 he's doing uh in arizona and today tsmc has announced a second major investment we'll construct
01:11:32.260 a second fab here in phoenix to build chips three nano chips the three nano chip chips and a three
01:11:40.360 nano and you know what i'm saying no there you go that's no no no i don't know oh my gosh i mean
01:11:48.580 and that's funny to the to the audience uh here's the leader of the free world no doesn't have any
01:11:54.560 idea what he's talking about nano nano chip three chips three and then he takes off the s because then
01:12:02.420 he decides three isn't plural or something three chip i don't know what he's a master class
01:12:10.340 no one does dementia yes it's a master class in dementia like seriously if you were at some
01:12:18.880 institute and trying to teach young and up-and-coming medical professionals about
01:12:24.700 about these sort of uh terrible ailments and say hey here's the here's one of these if you guys want
01:12:31.420 to see what dementia looks like in the mid stages uh here it is there it is the guy here's him trying
01:12:37.820 to say nano chips here's the thing that happens when the medication starts to wear off because this is
01:12:45.280 what we see when he's i don't know out past 11 o'clock in the morning he starts to degrade he starts to
01:12:55.080 disintegrate and he doesn't know what he's talking about he can't read some of the time he certainly
01:13:01.400 can't do numbers and he is just lost and that's why when he goes to a podium and he's at a
01:13:09.300 microphone and if jill's not standing right there to lead him off the stage he has no idea where to
01:13:16.040 go what to do that's why he's always turning around and shaking hands with the air or looking around like
01:13:22.320 i don't where do i go i don't know what to do now where's my sister jill i mean
01:13:31.320 he doesn't even know i mean he's described jill as his sister so that's how out of it he
01:13:36.680 yeah occasionally is on studios america which is my show on the blaze you can check it out
01:13:42.040 subscribe to the podcast what time would i see that on blaze tv at 8 p.m eastern 8 p.m eastern
01:13:47.680 blaze tv.com slash glenn seven o'clock my time if i'm not mistaken that's true yes good job
01:13:52.980 good uh good conversion skills on the fly too um but on that show we we do these little like
01:13:59.340 we know veep thoughts is one of them where we do this like a little incoherent moments from kamala
01:14:03.780 harris uh and now veep thoughts and we feature her words uh we came up with we were like you know you
01:14:09.700 see these gaffes from from biden and we're like we should do one on the biden thing you know kind of
01:14:14.400 hail to the gaff sort of uh sort of moment and we had these little interludes where it's like you know
01:14:19.980 and now the president of the united states and we just let him say his piece and this has been the
01:14:24.260 president of the united states like they were super simple but i have to stop the production crew from
01:14:29.040 making them because there's so many of them it's the it would be the entire show right all we would
01:14:35.140 be doing is making hail to the gaff moments over and over and over again now of course the nanochip
01:14:41.020 one will start the show today there's no doubt about that but still you could get to the point where
01:14:45.920 that's all you talk about every speech he makes there's three or four of these things in it
01:14:49.840 at least at least we have one okay let's listen all right ladies and gentlemen the president of
01:14:58.180 the united states of america we'll construct a second fab here in phoenix to build chips three
01:15:05.460 nano chips the three nano chip nano chips and the three nano and you know what i'm saying
01:15:11.380 this has been the president of the united states of america oh may god have mercy on our souls
01:15:18.520 we do not know what you're saying uh we don't no no one knows what you're saying three nanos
01:15:26.480 no i'm sorry we don't we don't get that well there's the nano yeah there's nano light and
01:15:31.280 there's nano dry oh okay yeah all right i didn't realize that yeah in the chip industry it tastes
01:15:37.260 great but it's less filling okay the nano light the nano light and the nano dry what does that do for
01:15:42.860 me uh that it dries out your mouth so you need to drink something it's very dry okay do i can i do
01:15:49.840 nano regular when they get the nano after the nano dry that's gonna help but it's not gonna bring you
01:15:55.100 all the way back it's like nano dry is like the bake the bake chips like the baked lays you green them
01:15:59.720 and you're like gosh these these taste okay but they're pretty dry pretty pretty dry like why don't
01:16:04.640 i eat regular chips and then you can also have the chip the nano light but that has some sort of
01:16:08.940 additive that really messes with your digestive system so i don't know if you want to try i don't
01:16:12.920 want that no i don't want that just go nano regular just eat in moderation you know that's all we're
01:16:18.200 asking all things in moderation right including nano moderation i don't know i'll get in my moderate
01:16:23.420 yeah moderate your nano chip intake okay that's all we're saying here i know it's the holidays you
01:16:29.260 want to indulge a little bit it's understandable but just take a moment and think about how many
01:16:34.280 nano chips you've ingested well follow the advice of the president and you know just do the well you
01:16:41.260 know what he's saying yeah the three nanos i'm saying yeah it's all this is three nanos that's
01:16:46.660 just it's so embarrassing it you know it is embarrassing it's embarrassing honestly for the
01:16:51.860 country like we yeah people all around the world look at this guy and they're like that's
01:16:56.540 wow that's the that's the uh that's the big those are the big guys on the block those yeah that's
01:17:01.260 the superpower that guy however i will say though that there are i think there's a pretty good number
01:17:08.440 of americans that never see any of this stuff because they watch cnn who doesn't show it msnbc
01:17:14.380 they don't show it and so you think he's doing fine he's doing fine he's great we have seen like
01:17:20.940 news broadcasts in saudi arabia and australia and europe all mocking him the way that we're mocking him
01:17:29.520 and that's just like look let us make fun of him i don't want you doing it all the australians are
01:17:34.340 all over it oh yeah they think it's hilarious gosh and like i can't blame him like almost every
01:17:39.360 night i would do the same thing i would too you know if we had uh you know if macron was doing
01:17:45.600 this every night we'd certainly be making fun of him and it's so much worse because he is the leader
01:17:49.600 of the free world which they mention every time they play this stuff yeah here's the leader of the
01:17:53.880 free world and then they highlight nano chips and just asinine things he says on a regular basis i
01:18:02.400 wish it was just funny it's really yeah we did we did this uh yeah by the biden triangle of emotion
01:18:08.040 we because i felt like every time i see a biden clip i have a combination of three emotions which is
01:18:16.500 like you know i feel sad okay i i feel like i feel it's funny yeah and it's scary and sometimes it's
01:18:27.180 all three things yeah sometimes it's right in the middle of the triangle sometimes it's leaning to the
01:18:31.640 scary side so like that one i don't know maybe put it on like the funny side i just want to mock that
01:18:35.860 one unlike when you know he was over making a speech and being like hey we gotta get vladimir putin
01:18:41.640 regime change like whoa wait what we are now advocating publicly for regime change in russia
01:18:49.900 in the middle of a war wait what like that one was scary that the nano chips thing was just kind 1.00
01:18:55.680 of funny he's an idiot it's a little sad yeah not really scary but there you have that combination 0.99
01:19:01.720 of emotions every time you watch one of these clips and you realize this guy's that like it's sad for 1.00
01:19:09.540 our country it's scary for our country that the fact that like this guy has a lot of control
01:19:16.240 over our lives now that's bad it shouldn't be that way in america but it is true i mean and he's
01:19:23.160 signing executive orders like like they're going out of style and hopefully they are you know with
01:19:28.380 the supreme court i would like that yeah i i do hope that's the way this turns out but you're right
01:19:32.640 that's what he's doing yep you know i i hope that this supreme court slaps down the student loan
01:19:39.720 thing in i want it i want the ruling to go on forever i want it to be a thousand pages of just
01:19:46.220 slams and i want this stuff this to be destroyed so no president tries to do it again you have to send 0.76
01:19:54.700 a message with this and you know i don't look i have no faith in the liberal justices but this should
01:19:59.820 be a 9-0 ruling i i do i do have some hope maybe you get kagan maybe it's a 7-2 because this is
01:20:06.340 egregious the man just took a trillion dollars and tried to spend it without asking congress yeah
01:20:12.360 you can't okay you think sbf is bad jeez what what is this he just took a trillion dollars of
01:20:19.860 our money and was like ah we'll just forgive all the debt no big deal completely unacceptable

01:27:09.180 it was in the fiction section at the well that was a mistake who put it in the who put it in the
01:27:15.140 fictional section that's just wrong that's just wrong um representative katherine clark
01:27:21.300 incoming house minority whip claimed on sunday that one of her kids awakened from nightmares over
01:27:27.660 climate change do we have that i think we i think we have that uh but they've also given us
01:27:32.920 a model to become our own leaders and let me tell you what it means to to me coming in as a
01:27:41.560 different generation i remember my middle child waking up with nightmares over concern around climate
01:27:49.200 change i mean if that's true whose fault is that right at hers probably the the school she was sending 0.94
01:27:59.260 them to the the fact that would they get that propaganda at school every day of their lives
01:28:06.260 and the fear mongering that has been done by the left has freaked children out i mean if that's true
01:28:14.320 that she actually had nightmares about climate i think it i don't know if it's true in her case of
01:28:19.440 course i don't know it's probably true for a lot of kids michael schellenberger talked about this
01:28:24.200 you know he wrote a book called apocalypse never which is a great book i know you've talked to him
01:28:28.040 about it as well it's an awesome book and he you know he's a big time environmentalist he was uh
01:28:34.000 very liberal won all sorts of awards for his environmental leadership and activism and you know
01:28:40.940 kept looking at this and then eventually got to the point where he said wait a minute a lot of this
01:28:44.520 stuff isn't true here's what is true and he has great like if you care about the climate at all i
01:28:48.520 can't recommend that book enough but i asked him like well why'd you write it like it's got to be
01:28:54.140 hard right to go through you you have this reputation built yeah as a and as an environmentalist
01:28:58.900 you have all these friends on that side of the aisle why write a book that tells the truth about
01:29:03.880 climate change and puts things in perspective why would you do that and his answer was that
01:29:09.920 his daughter's friends he saw what was going on with his daughter's friends and his daughter's
01:29:16.940 friends were literally as he as he pointed out terrified of climate change they were convinced
01:29:23.140 they've been told they're good it's yeah the earth is going to last for 10 years they were
01:29:27.160 convinced that's how they would die oh man and so like imagine what that is doing to a teenage girl
01:29:33.740 who's already gone dealing with god only knows what right you know he's like you know i of course
01:29:39.400 talked to my daughter about it and so she was not down that road but a lot of her friends were
01:29:44.760 and if you think about just the life of a the the teenage uh life of a teenage girl is is not
01:29:53.540 not there's a lot going on there right like you know high school and boys and you know all the other
01:30:01.260 stuff that goes on trying to to make it through that era for every kid boy or girl is difficult
01:30:07.400 you know add on the greta thunberg approach we're all going to die from climate change we should 0.88
01:30:16.020 all be acting right now this is the most terrible thing that could ever happen oh my god people are
01:30:20.300 dying all over the place and then the media not only takes greta thunberg and uh and takes her 0.87
01:30:27.540 claims seriously but promotes her so that she is influencing generations of other kids to be 0.93
01:30:34.080 terrified she's some kind of expert right she's not there's nothing about this yeah and she's a
01:30:39.820 kid with lots of issues the family has tons of issues you put this it's like you know we put you
01:30:46.120 put someone like that in the spotlight and you're risking all sorts of things and she's done real
01:30:52.080 damage to kids kids believe this stuff now well the damage was originally done to her and now she's 1.00
01:30:59.160 doing it to others yep because it was her parents who got her off on this freak train to begin with
01:31:04.700 oh yeah i think it was the second show i did on studios america we the show's been going on for
01:31:10.500 three years now by the way three years of studios america and the i think it was the second episode
01:31:14.820 of the show was about greta's uh parents and just went through first of all there's some really funny
01:31:19.900 stuff and they're it's a weird cast of characters that's what i'll bet uh but i mean they did they put
01:31:26.440 they put their kids we put her you know who's she obviously has emotional problems right like yeah 1.00
01:31:32.480 i mean she is emotional and plus isn't she she's uh she's all sorts of struggles yeah you know when
01:31:37.860 it comes to just day-to-day life autistic maybe possibly yeah i don't remember all the details of it 0.98
01:31:44.700 but i i you know she's dealing with a lot and to put her in this to to praise this idiocy that she's 0.99
01:31:52.900 talking about and bringing to the the public and now there's kind of been this movement okay all 0.91
01:31:58.060 right we're all we're all set i guess we're all set now with the greta thing you know she hasn't
01:32:01.780 been getting all the press lately i don't know if you've noticed this she seems to be fading away
01:32:05.160 she's getting too old she's no longer the cute little kid now she's like in a you know in a
01:32:09.740 teenager they want to ignore she's been critical of some of the wrong people right like you know
01:32:15.240 she look she legitimately believes she's going to die from this this is real to her yes and so
01:32:22.860 the when when the the power players in the democratic party and on the left use her they 0.95
01:32:30.180 use her to win elections to get control of the economy for all of these other reasons she really 0.98
01:32:37.040 believes it of course she was a child so she probably believed lots of other things that weren't
01:32:41.700 true but she believes it so now she's started to criticize people on the left and now now they
01:32:47.480 don't want to promote her anymore and they don't want her in front of up front of the cameras as much 1.00
01:32:51.600 but they're not doing what she thinks needs to be done right and that's stopping all like co2 1.00
01:32:56.740 legitimately and just stopping the economy in its tracks economy and stop industry she and when people 1.00
01:33:02.060 say like hey uh we can we can build solar panels and that will grow our economy and she correctly
01:33:08.740 calls that out as nonsense no you can't no you can't if you want to do this not enough we got
01:33:16.220 to shut down the economy completely and yeah there's going to be lots of economic pain but we need to
01:33:20.700 or else i'm going to die right it's her point now she's not correct about the conclusion there but
01:33:26.340 she's correct that you can't do it the way this happy-go-lucky way that left promotes ah we'll just
01:33:31.220 create some new jobs what is make social solar panels here everyone will have clean energy go out and
01:33:35.900 buy an electric car it's no big deal and what's amazing is that sometimes they admit that yeah
01:33:40.800 sometimes they say yeah the paris accords but it's just all symbolic wait what you want everybody to
01:33:47.060 abide by the paris accords but it was all symbolic yeah that won't that won't be enough oh okay well
01:33:54.180 what will be enough shutting down our our society that's what the end goal is of this just to bring
01:34:01.920 the united states of america to its knees so that everybody else in the world can catch up to it
01:34:07.100 that's the only way they'll catch up to us is if we shut everything down right because we're too far
01:34:13.340 ahead of it it's legitimately what they want to happen i mean look this is a bigger movement than
01:34:17.220 as everybody on earth freaking knows this is not about it's not about the uh the climate
01:34:27.400 i mean the elon musk is the ultimate example of this they said forever we have to go to electric
01:34:34.020 cars they said we must go to electric cars we have to it's it's the greatest existential threat
01:34:40.160 we've ever seen in our entire lives this is we absolutely must do this at any cost
01:34:47.200 it's a we are all going to die millions of people are going to die in bangladesh 0.79
01:34:51.680 if we don't do something about this and then he said you know maybe we should have free speech
01:34:57.740 like this guy's the devil yeah sure he built the electric car company that's any building spaceships
01:35:04.040 to escape the the uh escape the planet in case global warming really hits us and he's building uh
01:35:11.520 you know a technology that can help ai that would help scrub the atmosphere of carbon and all of these
01:35:18.900 incredible projects he's working on but he said conservatives should be able to tweet that they
01:35:24.400 like low taxes so he's satan i mean has there ever been a more clear example they don't care about the
01:35:32.260 climate at all none of this means anything to them it's all bs and especially since they know full
01:35:39.740 good and well just like we do that the electric car by the way is not an answer for our problems
01:35:45.360 the electric car with all the mining you have to do with all of the preparation to build the car
01:35:51.580 right with everything that comes together and that stinking battery that's in the car
01:35:55.980 worse for the environment than carbon oriented cars i mean it is not the answer no i mean at all i should
01:36:05.380 tweet this at studios america if you want to follow it i'll tweet it later on today but there's a
01:36:09.720 i i watched a ted talk from an environmentalist and you know ted talks are you can always get into
01:36:15.460 them you know i don't care what the topic is so i clicked on it and the guy's talking about electric
01:36:19.580 cars and i'm like oh this will be interesting let's see what he has to say i saw this too yeah i like
01:36:23.480 watching sometimes the other you want to watch the other side you understand what their arguments are
01:36:27.700 are they good are they bad what's the evidence they have and he was surprising went the other way yeah
01:36:32.140 he was like you know what actually it's not time for electric cars we're not ready for them
01:36:37.120 and he goes they're harmful to the environment he shows the details on it and i depending on you
01:36:43.520 know there's a bunch of different variables he outlines but it's something like over a hundred
01:36:47.040 thousand miles of driving an electric car before you even break even and that's if you have if you're
01:36:54.120 fine driving an electric car that only goes you know 120 miles which most people aren't i mean most
01:36:59.940 people don't want they want a longer range one like some of the cool cars that elon musk has built
01:37:03.620 can go a lot farther than that it's certainly very fast yep and you know you go down that road
01:37:08.480 and you're you never you never make it up and the electric the regular his point eventually he gets
01:37:13.900 to is like i think for the environment hybrids are a good answer he's like i think hybrids are much
01:37:18.280 better for our the amount of technology we have right now because you can save some but still make
01:37:23.640 it you know useful for people and you don't have the cost of all the batteries you'll you have a much
01:37:28.480 smaller amount of battery right those two technologies are a big deal that's a big problem
01:37:34.260 yeah but like you know it is true there has been tons of research on this at this point
01:37:40.880 and it's it's kind of a joke right it's kind of a joke honestly yeah if you believe this
01:37:49.340 it seriously they've been telling us it's the most important thing in the world for decades
01:37:55.860 and the guy comes along with his own money and builds a company that that does 30 40 years of
01:38:03.820 advancement in this field without them really having to touch it other than some generous government
01:38:09.740 subsidies that were involved we should know but still he did most of the most of this work himself
01:38:13.840 and the he said i want to keep my company open during covid and i don't really like masks and
01:38:21.880 they're like holy crap this guy's satan we should we should excommunicate him from society
01:38:25.900 and they're trying to trying to they really are it's it's amazing to watch and to this representative 0.96
01:38:33.540 who talks about the nightmares of her middle child uh i love the joe bastardi response on twitter
01:38:40.540 if this is true then it's because someone is guilty of child abuse given life has never been better on
01:38:46.400 planet earth tell your middle child we're in a climate optimum with 1 112 the amount of death
01:38:54.940 per capita from climate as 1930 i love that i mean people don't people have no idea about these
01:39:02.120 statistics they just buy what is sold to them all the time uh by the left thank god and fossil fuels
01:39:10.360 he said and that is i mean so true and so accurate and we've talked about it you know people don't
01:39:18.580 people aren't starving on this planet the way they once were when it was a little bit colder on this
01:39:23.500 planet because it's warm enough to grow more food which seems kind of like a good thing uh to some people

01:41:12.180 you know they're they were all tweets and elon must deleted them oh that jerk why well like he 0.70
01:41:18.340 didn't want to be out there right he didn't want the truth to be out there all right uh well the truth 0.97
01:41:25.720 of things is that uh splash mountain needs to go away at disneyland disney world finally somebody's
01:41:31.740 saying it's finally somebody's doing it it's been around since 1989 this racist ride
01:41:38.600 at uh they're all their theme parks and they are closing it permanently finally on january 23rd
01:41:48.800 how many people have died because of splash mountain you know just the horror of how racist it is okay
01:41:56.680 not from like the actual no not from the actual fall no nobody's died from that okay that i know of
01:42:01.200 but you got to believe hundreds if not thousands have died because of the horror when they realize
01:42:08.660 it's based on song of the south i had no idea it was based on song of the south until this story came
01:42:15.360 out it's just a freaking ride where you go down a hill and splash in water that's what it is no one
01:42:20.480 cares that it has anything to do with sound of the south no right that's exactly right uh so fans of
01:42:27.060 the ride created their own petition and gathered about a hundred thousand signatures saying hey
01:42:34.320 uh please don't end splash mountain and they're going to anyway now splash mountain itself never
01:42:43.260 included depictions of slaves or any racist elements and it's based solely on historical african
01:42:53.540 folk tales that families of all ethnicities have been enjoying for nearly a century
01:42:58.620 so it wasn't racist in any way it it actually really wasn't based on song of the south because they
01:43:06.100 didn't do anything song of the southish that was you know bad in it i mean i think some of the language
01:43:12.680 and and maybe the the treatment of minorities in song of the south you know it doesn't fit certainly
01:43:18.320 with what's going on today but that wasn't included right in the ride right the ride really
01:43:24.100 had nothing to do with that it's a bunch of rabbits and yeah foxes it was what my recollection
01:43:30.660 they basically cheaply branded this ride with with a popular right movie at the time right like they
01:43:37.020 were just like hey well song of the south people like that right let's uh let's pop let's call it a
01:43:41.880 song of the south ride but it wasn't it was just a brought a water ride and in 1989 you you could do
01:43:47.180 that because we weren't as sensitive as we are now now we're just i mean we can't handle anything
01:43:53.120 no we really can't handle anything and like you know we we get to this point where every there was
01:44:01.920 i think mindy kaling is the uh was the person who recently said this but she was on the office
01:44:06.540 uh as well as steve carell of course steve carell said this before you can't even make the office now
01:44:11.120 here's one of the greatest shows of all time they think you couldn't they think you could not she said
01:44:15.340 now too um steve carell said it years ago he couldn't do it and you know it's sad that you
01:44:23.060 couldn't do it right like one of the greatest television shows of all time well how much do
01:44:27.580 we have one minute we should come back and talk about this a little bit because okay i'm i'm
01:44:30.600 fascinated by by this because i love the office i love it and you know people say well after steve
01:44:36.460 carell left it sucked honestly still really good yeah it wasn't as good of course i think that's
01:44:42.180 true but it was still good it was one of those shows that you'd be like well it's just not as good
01:44:46.200 if you compare it to the first few seasons when steve carell is on there right you are correct and
01:44:52.480 then do another thing though compare it to the other shows on television yeah and then you're like
01:44:57.940 holy crap this is a great show it really was even to the end really really funny and and had you
01:45:03.120 it's great moments um but so much of it now would need to be deleted they i mean they have deleted
01:45:10.660 some of it but but it's amazing i'll tell you about a couple moments from this and and mindy

01:47:44.100 true um so this situation going on with mindy kaling of the office she was uh of course uh kelly on the 0.99
01:47:53.180 office uh you would remember her yeah kind of the uh bubbly um sometimes idiot uh in the office who 1.00
01:48:02.520 was uh constantly obsessed with uh hooking up with uh her on and off boyfriend okay yes so uh she 0.88
01:48:09.720 she's also like is a very accomplished you know actor and also like producer and writer she wrote a lot
01:48:16.880 of the most famous office episodes she's like you know i didn't know she wrote any of them yeah
01:48:21.740 she did she's one of them yeah she wrote a bunch of the big ones and she's also went on to produce
01:48:28.500 other shows and has you know a really big career she says uh this about the office she says the office
01:48:35.280 just couldn't be made today why that show is so inappropriate now she said the writers who i'm still
01:48:41.200 in touch with now we always talk about how so much of that show probably couldn't we couldn't make
01:48:45.540 now tastes have changed and honestly what offends people has changed so much now yeah and i think
01:48:51.880 that's actually one of the reasons the show is popular because people feel like there's some kind
01:48:55.520 of fearless something kind of fearless about it or taboo that it talks about on the show
01:49:01.100 and i think there's two ways to make a comment like that right like there's the way steve carell
01:49:07.240 made this comment that's very similar one years ago where he said you know look i just don't think
01:49:11.420 they would make it i don't think it would get green lit i don't think we could do half was he lamenting
01:49:14.960 that fact right is it lamenting or is it thank god because we've now made brave changes to embrace
01:49:21.300 all of the lgbtq or whatever you know whatever yeah whatever sentence and series of abbreviations
01:49:27.340 you go into after saying something like that is the typical way this goes now kayling's definitely
01:49:31.660 liberal i mean carell is liberal everybody in hollywood is liberal right just about we basically know
01:49:37.400 that um now carell in 2018 they talked about potentially doing a reboot of the series and
01:49:44.260 carell said i'll tell you no the show is way more popular now than it was on the air and i just can't
01:49:50.760 see it being the same thing and i think most folks would want to do the same thing but it wouldn't be
01:49:54.300 ultimately it was probably left best to leave um well enough alone and just let it exist as what it was
01:50:00.180 it's really sad carell continued you'd literally have all the same writers the same producers the same
01:50:05.520 directors the same actors and even with all those components it still wouldn't be the same
01:50:08.600 but i love the show it was the most exciting time these people are my friends blah blah blah blah
01:50:13.240 blah however he talked about how it was not just content wise wouldn't exist and i give you an
01:50:19.780 example of this there's a there's a a podcast called office ladies which is hosted by pam from the office
01:50:28.080 get these people's names and angela from the office those are the two hosts of it and they go
01:50:33.980 through and they do an episode by episode recap and talk about behind the scenes stuff and all the
01:50:38.180 things that went on and i don't know they're they're very pleasant people generally and likable people
01:50:43.680 and it's like you can listen to a hundred podcasts a day like we do right we do podcasts a day talking
01:50:51.060 about the news and there's a lot there to just you just feel terrible about and it's like nice to
01:50:55.880 remember a show that i really liked and two people that i like talking about things that i like
01:51:00.380 you know and it's like it feels it's like a it's like i really like it's just enjoyable to listen
01:51:04.880 to anyway so they were talking about an episode from the office which i do remember and there's one
01:51:12.540 storyline in the office in this particular episode where steve carell is trying to hook up or date
01:51:19.800 a woman they i think they meet in a bar and him and dwight meet these two asian women in a bar
01:51:27.280 and i guess they're friends or something and the plot line is steve carell can't tell them apart
01:51:34.400 so he they go to the bathroom and they come back and he can't remember which that would be a problem
01:51:39.600 right he can't remember which one he was with he can't tell them apart so at we go it escalates it
01:51:47.000 escalates and he doesn't know what to call one of them he doesn't know which one to sit next to
01:51:51.240 it's like a very awkward very office moment yeah and it it kind of uh crescendos to the point where
01:51:58.020 he takes a magic marker and marks one of their arms so he can remember which one he's with
01:52:02.200 is very very offensive in a way in a way if you're not an adult if you can't think for yourself it's
01:52:13.820 yes and here's the thing was the point of that storyline all asians look alike or was the point
01:52:24.880 of that storyline that steve carell is a neanderthal and yes is it of course that's the point that's
01:52:30.320 the point it's making fun of people right who would go through this thought process right it's making 0.99
01:52:36.160 fun of not asian people for looking alike but steve carell for being an idiot in this role yeah 0.96
01:52:43.880 it's always setting in philadelphia still does this to this day and they they do all sorts of things 0.91
01:52:49.500 they've had episodes is it still running still right it's the longest live action running sitcom in
01:52:54.360 history no yeah wow i ever did i say that i question it but exceeded by the simpsons maybe simpsons
01:53:01.760 yeah the simpsons but they do say the live action thing and i think too it hasn't had as many
01:53:07.100 episodes certainly as other sitcoms but it's been still airing for a very long time wow and so like
01:53:13.220 they've had episodes there's a famous episode where um it's called d-day um which is focused on the
01:53:21.200 character d and d is a you know she's someone who wants to be very famous and she has these really
01:53:27.320 bad characters and the the point is she's very shallow and she wants she thinks she's really
01:53:32.340 good at being hilarious and a comedian and she's not and so she has these terrible characters she 0.99
01:53:36.860 tries to bust out and many of them are based on really just shoddy racial stereotypes right and
01:53:45.120 they're not even like they're just awful like the point is that these people are shallow and 0.98
01:53:51.680 moronic and bad people dealing with things in bad ways but are they still doing it mock them and laugh 0.98
01:54:00.780 at them they're still doing that kind of stuff they are still doing that kind of stuff but that 0.97
01:54:04.920 episode in particular was pulled because at one point she darkens her skin and that was called black 1.00
01:54:10.740 face and blah blah blah you know how that thing goes now it's always sunny in philadelphia south park
01:54:16.500 can get away with this stuff at some level they're they're deep cable shows right these are not
01:54:20.840 network shows the office i don't think you could get away with it at this point but um uh anyway
01:54:25.720 the the the office ladies episode i was talking about got to the point where they're talking about
01:54:30.100 this episode where steve carell tries to date the the asian woman can't tell them apart marks them 0.99
01:54:35.340 with a marker and and again i really like both of these women talk like they're i really like this
01:54:42.080 podcast yeah but like they talk about it like like you know i'm i'm ashamed that we did this oh
01:54:49.820 jeez i'm ashamed oh my gosh we we we we indulged these stereotypes and they have this like moment
01:54:56.400 of regret about these jokes and like even at the time we felt uncomfortable and i just this was wrong
01:55:03.140 it was wrong and they had it's really it's the only time i've really heard them do this type of thing
01:55:06.880 it's why it stands out to me but it's like stop stop it yeah stop it there was nothing wrong
01:55:15.500 with mock mock mocking in these i mean like we have shows that mocked hitler's germany
01:55:24.020 hogan's heroes the producers we mocked not the holocaust and you know one of the reasons why 0.67
01:55:33.280 everyone outside of kanye west and whatever room he's in seems to agree on the holocaust one of the
01:55:38.620 reasons why it's been so shunned by society is because of that mockery we were all able to come 0.87
01:55:44.520 together and say this is a completely ridiculous thing and let's all mock it and ridicule those
01:55:50.240 views that was something society used to do well now we all are terrified of it and you know the other
01:55:56.600 thing is that the office ran till 2013 okay so it went from 05 to 13 so we have changed so much
01:56:07.280 as a society so quickly it's not even 10 years yeah since that went off the air and you couldn't
01:56:13.260 do it today that shows just uh the light speed that we're changing yeah pat this is a great thing
01:56:21.840 i just a great example of this it's always sunny in philadelphia i just mentioned it they've had
01:56:25.720 several issue uh episodes pulled from their catalog you can't if you go to hulu or wherever it's playing
01:56:30.480 it's just not there it won't be there because something in there was too offensive supposedly one of
01:56:36.100 the episodes that got pulled is from like season 13 or 14 of the show they're only on like season 15
01:56:44.120 or 16 so like wow it was just a couple of seasons ago where this was all approved yeah maybe 2019 or
01:56:53.160 2020 yeah maybe it was 2018 or something they were right around there and they pulled the episode and
01:57:00.360 it's just like it's like one of the more recent seasons this is not even going now from things that
01:57:05.520 happened in 2005 and we update what we're thinking and we get nervous and we pull splash mountain rides
01:57:11.000 because of song of the south this is stuff that like was approved by corporate boards two years ago
01:57:16.940 right and now we're at deeming too too offensive for people to even view and judge for themselves
01:57:23.020 outrageous completely ridiculous outrageous 888-727-BECK we're gonna share this um 0.66
01:57:30.880 rachel levine ah uh clip with you because it's fantastic and she is spicy oh man there's no doubt
01:57:38.560 about oh wow so beautiful we're saying things currently that we'll get this episode pulled
01:57:42.400 but man is she spicy yeah that's for sure uh more coming up 0.98
01:57:45.880 what a world how hard is it to plan for the future well if you're doing it right the answer is
01:57:52.260 pretty hard not only do you have to learn how to live within your means and that can be pretty hard
01:57:57.240 especially when you're young and people are practically throwing credit at you but you also
01:58:01.560 have to learn when and where you can save money throughout the year and that's not always the most
01:58:07.060 obvious thing in the world either if you're fiscally responsible and you're a homeowner i want to give
01:58:11.280 you the mortgage consultants over at american financing uh to reference and talk to because

01:59:07.060 this is the glenn back program
01:59:10.920 all right we're gonna get into uh this racial rachel levine situation but first stu just found an 1.00
01:59:32.580 interesting stat that we were talking about from the climate change situation yeah you mentioned
01:59:36.720 the paris accord i meant to look this up uh if the paris accord is just symbolic that's really what
01:59:42.720 they'll they'll admit it and of course it's true um if if the climate impact uh of all the um
01:59:50.700 indicated cuts in carbon uh actually it all went through all countries do everything they're supposed
01:59:57.920 to which of course we know is not going to happen but all countries do everything they're supposed to
02:00:01.620 to the t uh it would save in if everything is right all the science is right no margin of error
02:00:07.500 everything they nail it exactly it would save us 0.048 degrees celsius by 2100
02:00:16.520 48 one hundredths of a degree by 2100 thus saving the planet right no no 48 one thousandths of a degree
02:00:28.840 oh yeah 48 one thousandths right about 48 one hundredths it's not a half of a half of a degree
02:00:34.700 here we're talking about 0.048 degrees that is outrageous so anyway just to bring that up but
02:00:42.300 speaking of science uh i mean it's like scientifically proven that rachel levine uh admiral
02:00:50.620 levine is uh perhaps the most beautiful woman on the planet and she had some things to say about
02:00:56.380 science and here's what she said so i encourage all of you to think of yourselves as ambassadors
02:01:01.920 to your communities okay ambassadors for science ambassadors for compassion and ambassadors for care
02:01:09.680 these conversations don't have to be limited or restricted to a medical setting offering yourselves
02:01:15.400 as informational resources not just for youth but for school teachers principals school boards
02:01:21.660 professional organizations recreation centers county commissioners and others who would benefit from
02:01:28.420 this information in your perspective please proactively seek opportunities to speak about what you know
02:01:34.440 our task is to educate the public in as many forms as possible
02:01:38.340 we need to have these conversations that question the assumptions that are underlying today's attacks
02:01:44.000 on trans people pushing back the veil of ignorance demands this extra effort
02:01:49.240 and this is a this is the challenge before our profession okay for almost 40 years now
02:01:54.680 almost 40 i have considered an honor to be adopted okay i believe in our role as healers i believe in
02:02:00.920 our role as truth tellers truth tellers and the truth that we need to confront now is that medicine
02:02:05.640 and science are being politically perverted around this country are they destroys human lives we have
02:02:11.000 reached a tipping point for the role in medicine in civic life for the health and well-being of lgbtqi
02:02:17.880 plus youth and other americans lgbtq pause it for those who attack our community i mean that is so outrageous
02:02:23.960 because what she's saying is the exact opposite of what's actually happening the reverse of reality
02:02:30.920 she or they whatever pronoun she he she or they use uh is the one who's denying science and manipulating
02:02:39.640 everybody else trying to get us to believe that version of science which is just not reality and she
02:02:48.280 by the way did not say she the the science was being manipulated she believed i believe she said
02:02:53.720 that it was being perverted perverted which is a perfect word to describe what is going on here
02:02:58.920 yeah and i will say it was hard for me to really get through what she was saying there because she's
02:03:04.040 just so hot the problem here if you're listening on radio i mean that's really superficial stew but i
02:03:10.280 understand what you're saying i gotta admit it i understand what you're saying we're here telling the
02:03:13.800 truth we don't want to pervert the truth here we do not and you know if you're listening on radio
02:03:19.000 you are not seeing the video along with this and it to your credit you were probably able to focus on
02:03:24.120 what she was saying yeah i can only focus on how hot she is it's the only thing that really connects 1.00
02:03:30.280 with me here she's so incredible i mean she puts you know you're just being honest kate beckinsale 0.66
02:03:36.440 puts her to shame right that margot robbie margot robbie spit on disgusting yeah actually physically
02:03:42.360 sickens me to think about margot robbie right now when i when i consider the beauty of rachel
02:03:48.120 levine it's it's transcendent it's transcendent it is it really is yeah you're right i am revolted
02:03:55.400 by you know making by thinking of right yeah oh man no it's disgusting i i just threw up in my
02:04:01.320 mouth a little bit so yeah me too all right well that was fun uh hopefully glenn returns tomorrow
02:04:09.640 okay the glenn back program
