The Glenn Beck Program - 'What's In a Name？'

00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, on demand.

00:00:08.960 Glenn, back.

00:00:10.640 Back, Ray.

00:00:11.200 Stu Bergier for Glenn today, who is doing a triathlon, right?

00:00:15.500 Yeah.

00:00:15.840 Off the coast of South Africa.

00:00:17.480 South Africa.

00:00:18.380 Yeah.

00:00:18.540 It's kind of cool.

00:00:19.580 I mean, you've seen the physical transformation with Glenn.

00:00:23.000 He's been training for this for, I don't know how long.

00:00:25.520 Yeah.

00:00:25.660 He's in incredible.

00:00:26.900 Looks fantastic.

00:00:28.340 Incredible condition.

00:00:29.340 He's a really healthy guy.

00:00:30.660 Oh, yeah.

00:00:31.380 Yeah, yeah.

00:00:31.800 And makes you feel bad about yourself.

00:00:33.720 Like, you know, sometimes I'll have a meal that's a little bit off, or maybe I won't exercise for a day.

00:00:37.900 Right, right.

00:00:38.260 And you see that Glenn does not do those things anymore.

00:00:40.440 You can tell.

00:00:41.220 You can tell.

00:00:41.940 So I feel like his time is going to be pretty solid.

00:00:46.060 All right.

00:00:48.040 888-727-BECK, with your comments and questions, and maybe you have some questions like we do on this Saudi Arabian killing.

00:00:55.100 I don't know why we haven't nuked Riyadh yet.

00:00:59.020 Right.

00:00:59.120 I don't know why.

00:01:00.240 I mean, a journalist was killed.

00:01:02.300 Yeah.

00:01:03.160 That much we kind of know.

00:01:04.760 So usually when that happens, we've destroyed the country by now.

00:01:08.180 It's usually what you do.

00:01:08.920 Right?

00:01:09.280 You just willy-nilly start launching missiles at it.

00:01:12.520 I love the way the media reacts to this stuff.

00:01:15.440 The criticism, the main criticism of Donald Trump, since he's been in the public eye in politics, is that he reacts too quickly.

00:01:24.180 He just jumps into everything.

00:01:26.800 And he's constantly, he's a loose cannon.

00:01:29.560 He might nuke everybody.

00:01:30.680 Now it's like, why isn't he nuking everybody?

00:01:32.940 Right.

00:01:34.400 He's actually trying to gather facts?

00:01:36.680 Yeah.

00:01:36.940 Why would you do that?

00:01:38.240 I mean, look, it, to me, sure looks like something really bad.

00:01:42.520 Yeah, it looks really bad.

00:01:43.240 But again, all of this comes from Turkish sources.

00:01:46.160 Turkish sources with an incentive to make Saudi Arabia look as bad as possible.

00:01:50.180 So until we actually have the evidence, or at least our intelligence services have the evidence, it's hard to jump to a conclusion and do anything drastic.

00:02:01.580 And the criticism that is coming in of Trump is he's saying, well, look, we need, we've asked for the video, we've asked for the audio that supposedly exists, that's been described in media reports, but we don't have it yet.

00:02:13.380 We've tried, we've talked to them about it.

00:02:15.400 We've, we've, we're investigating.

00:02:17.040 We sent Mike Pompeo over there to talk to them about it.

00:02:20.700 I mean, you, I think the same people who we heard for years and years and years and years, we did not do enough research in to figure out if there was weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

00:02:31.580 And including Donald Trump, by the way, who was, who was leading that at the time, or at least commenting publicly very, a lot on it.

00:02:40.420 Now we're hearing from the same media people that we should be jumping immediately to, we absolutely know what happened and how come we haven't punished Saudi Arabia yet?

00:02:47.420 Yeah.

00:02:48.200 And I think that that's been the transformation of, of the news is that everything now is seen through a Trump prism.

00:02:53.920 And clearly, you know, the Saudi Arabian explanations have been suspect.

00:02:58.180 There's no, first of all, they didn't know anything about it.

00:03:00.040 First, well, he was gone.

00:03:01.760 He left.

00:03:02.840 We don't know where he went.

00:03:04.360 Oops.

00:03:04.840 Well, we never saw him leave out the front door.

00:03:07.760 Do you have another?

00:03:08.500 Yeah, he went out the back window.

00:03:10.240 I don't know.

00:03:11.080 And then, and then it's, well, okay.

00:03:13.000 Yeah, he's, he's dead.

00:03:15.060 We killed him accidentally during an interrogation gone bad.

00:03:18.420 Though I will say even that is a report from CNN about what they're going to announce.

00:03:23.880 They have not announced it.

00:03:24.620 And they haven't yet.

00:03:25.140 Right.

00:03:25.700 They have not announced that.

00:03:26.620 They have not come out and said that that's true.

00:03:28.380 That is a report from sources to CNN who said they will be coming out to do it or they're

00:03:33.620 considering doing that, but they haven't done it yet.

00:03:36.100 And how do you kill a guy during an interrogation gone bad?

00:03:40.340 I meant to ask you what you were doing last Thursday.

00:03:43.020 And instead, cut your head open with a bone saw.

00:03:47.520 It does happen.

00:03:48.700 Darn it.

00:03:49.160 I slipped.

00:03:49.880 You know how many times I have fallen with my bone saw and sawed up someone into tiny little

00:03:54.860 pieces and put them in suitcases.

00:03:56.100 It's happened to me over and over again, 50 times in the last three weeks.

00:03:59.880 Oh, wow.

00:04:00.380 I'm just, I'm estimating.

00:04:01.260 Wow.

00:04:01.620 Could be 60, could be 20.

00:04:03.420 Well, you don't keep track of every single time something like that happens.

00:04:06.960 I mean, why would you?

00:04:07.700 I mean, I, that's, but this is why I subscribe to a suitcase delivery service that drops off,

00:04:13.700 you know, a few dozen a day.

00:04:15.000 Cause you just never put the parts in the suitcase and then deliver it to a private plane

00:04:19.460 that takes off.

00:04:20.280 Maybe I'm the bad guy here.

00:04:21.520 Okay.

00:04:22.040 Maybe I'm the bad guy.

00:04:23.120 I happen to run around a lot with my bone saw.

00:04:25.920 Okay.

00:04:26.720 I don't think that makes you a bad guy.

00:04:28.420 I don't think so.

00:04:29.200 I don't think it does.

00:04:30.060 Do I occasionally fall on one or two individuals?

00:04:34.240 And did your mom probably suggest, Stu, don't be running around the house with a bone saw?

00:04:39.080 You know, she did.

00:04:39.600 You can put someone's eye out.

00:04:41.060 She also said, don't eat sugary cereal.

00:04:42.620 And I do that now too.

00:04:43.420 You do that too.

00:04:43.960 You know, we grow up, we get responsibility for our lives and you start making decisions

00:04:48.660 as an adult.

00:04:49.360 And my decision is I'm going to carry my bone saw around and occasionally my footing isn't

00:04:55.740 so secure.

00:04:56.820 So sue me.

00:04:57.320 So sue me.

00:04:57.700 Right?

00:04:58.040 Right.

00:04:58.320 Exactly.

00:04:58.840 Yeah.

00:04:59.100 At least I'm going through the right steps of cutting them up into little pieces and putting

00:05:03.280 them into suitcases.

00:05:04.560 And I think that's all you want.

00:05:05.300 You're cleaning up after yourself.

00:05:06.960 Yeah.

00:05:07.220 That's all you can do is clean up the mess afterward.

00:05:09.500 That's all you can do.

00:05:11.020 And it's interesting too that the media is making a big deal out of every single time

00:05:15.000 they talk about this guy, they talk about him as if he's an American because they always

00:05:19.980 say Washington Post reporter.

00:05:22.240 Right.

00:05:23.220 Jamal Khashoggi.

00:05:24.520 I think he just, he contributed to the Washington Post.

00:05:28.140 Is he actually a staff member of the Washington Post?

00:05:31.460 He's a columnist, wasn't he?

00:05:32.560 And it's relatively new because he had left, there was a lot of problems over there.

00:05:37.960 He realized he might be on the wrong side of whatever internal craziness was going on

00:05:42.820 in Saudi Arabia.

00:05:43.640 So that's fairly new.

00:05:46.020 And, you know, critics of Saudi Arabia, I think, have a, first of all, a place in the

00:05:51.140 American media that is just, right?

00:05:52.800 Like, I mean, I think it's important that we are able to air those things.

00:05:55.220 But also, you know, there's a lot of opposition to them.

00:05:58.740 And people don't, I mean, you know, remember Saudi Arabia was like the main accusation made

00:06:05.060 by Michael Moore in Fahrenheit, was it Fahrenheit 9-11 was the first one?

00:06:09.400 He's made like, he's tried to capitalize over that so many times, I can't remember which one

00:06:12.560 it is now.

00:06:13.240 But Fahrenheit 9-11, the first one, the biggest political documentary of all time.

00:06:17.640 But in that was just a giant conspiracy theory about how the Bushes knew this guy like 50

00:06:22.980 years ago.

00:06:23.460 And he's working with this.

00:06:24.640 And they're working with this group that's working with the Saudis.

00:06:26.380 And it was all about defending the Saudis.

00:06:27.900 And that's why, you know, you don't know the truth about 9-11.

00:06:31.040 Right.

00:06:31.540 So this is not a new accusation when it comes to Republicans working with Saudi Arabia.

00:06:37.660 But, you know, every president has worked with them for a very long time.

00:06:41.060 And it's something that we've been critical about for a long time.

00:06:43.240 Our ally since 1933, I think.

00:06:46.560 So, yeah, a really long time.

00:06:48.600 This goes back to the FDR administration.

00:06:52.720 So it's not just Trump who's been friendly, I guess, with Saudi Arabia.

00:07:00.740 Certainly Bush was always, always accused of that, being too friendly with Saudi Arabia.

00:07:05.680 But Barack Obama was plenty friendly with him, too.

00:07:08.780 Exactly.

00:07:09.260 I mean, they've been allies for a long time.

00:07:10.880 And there is no way that Barack Obama would have done anything severe to Saudi Arabia by this point, either.

00:07:19.520 He wouldn't have done anything about this.

00:07:21.120 It's a great point.

00:07:21.920 And it shows the problem with 90% of the media coverage today.

00:07:25.980 The difference there is that they perceive Barack Obama as this intellectual, deep thinker who is pensive.

00:07:35.700 Right.

00:07:36.000 I mean, remember, I'm bringing up Fahrenheit 9-11 again.

00:07:38.380 One of the other big criticisms of this was Bush was in a school when he found out about 9-11.

00:07:44.040 And he sat there and he let the kids finish the book.

00:07:46.440 And then it took the call and it took him like nine minutes before he walked out of the room.

00:07:53.280 Remember this accusation?

00:07:54.360 And they showed a large chunk of it and it was a big deal at the time.

00:07:58.200 But they saw Bush as this bad guy who was incompetent.

00:08:04.580 Barack Obama waited, what was it, 78 days when he knew where Osama bin Laden was before he did anything?

00:08:11.040 And he was universally praised for this decision.

00:08:13.580 It was the most difficult decision in 500 years.

00:08:16.140 It was the toughest decision made since Charlemagne.

00:08:21.960 Charlemagne.

00:08:22.300 To go get the worst criminal on earth is a tough decision in the minds of people who want to praise Barack Obama.

00:08:29.140 It's a decision, by the way, we made on about 9-12-2001 to kill the guy.

00:08:34.620 Right.

00:08:35.060 You know, tens of thousands of military members signed up just to do that.

00:08:38.800 Yeah.

00:08:39.140 They all knew.

00:08:39.840 I mean, yes, of course there was risk in a mission like that.

00:08:41.840 But this was risk.

00:08:43.400 You talk to any military member, especially people who were serving at that time, and they'll tell you that was basically the reason they got into it.

00:08:50.040 Yeah.

00:08:50.220 I mean, you know, a lot of people got in just to hopefully get the opportunity to take that shot.

00:08:55.740 So it was not a difficult decision.

00:08:58.720 But Barack Obama was an intellectual thinker.

00:09:01.440 He was a deep thinker that was just considering all these options and weighing all these impossible choices.

00:09:06.500 And he finally came to the conclusion to go and act on this.

00:09:10.860 The opposite is what they feel about Trump.

00:09:13.300 You know, the fact that Trump is going out there and saying, wait a minute, let's hold on a second.

00:09:17.100 Let's get this evidence.

00:09:18.200 Let's figure out exactly what's going on.

00:09:19.720 Let's investigate this before we act irrationally.

00:09:22.720 If Barack Obama was doing that, it would be seen as he's a deep thinker.

00:09:26.000 He's not being reactionary.

00:09:27.480 With Trump, it's that he doesn't care.

00:09:29.140 It's all about money.

00:09:30.400 And it's all about Saudi Arabia because Jared Kushner likes Saudi Arabia or something.

00:09:34.540 It's just, you know, the overwhelming problem is that everybody seems to see everything through the lens of this one individual on our planet.

00:09:45.660 They just are completely obsessed with Donald Trump.

00:09:50.160 Yeah.

00:09:50.420 And I just don't, I can't connect to that.

00:09:52.980 I think as a person who's a small government guy, I don't want the president to have that much of a role in our lives.

00:09:59.240 It's just fundamentally, whether it's Barack Obama or Donald Trump.

00:10:02.800 But, you know, CNN, I think they've made a decision and MSNBC is certainly on this board and pretty much every other media source is that this is this is our this is what we do.

00:10:11.900 All we do is talk about every issue and how it relates to Donald Trump.

00:10:15.380 This is a man who was murdered, potentially cut up into little pieces, maybe by a mistake of falling with your bone saw.

00:10:21.000 But something happened there.

00:10:22.540 And all we could talk about is what why Donald Trump is acting the way he's acting.

00:10:27.960 Well, isn't there more of a story here?

00:10:29.780 Maybe that's the story you run in three weeks when you're looking back at this incident.

00:10:33.760 But like, isn't the story now much more about the details of the incident and what happened?

00:10:39.100 We're still in that stage.

00:10:40.420 Yeah, it should be breaking news.

00:10:42.540 Now, Chicago Tribune is reporting the United States just received a payment of one hundred million dollars from Saudi Arabia.

00:10:52.460 Actually, we got it on Tuesday, the same day Secretary of State Mike Pompeo arrived in Riyadh to discuss the disappearance of Khashoggi.

00:11:01.040 Saudi Arabia publicly pledged the payment to support U.S. stabilization efforts in northeastern Syria.

00:11:07.300 So I'm sure that this will be twisted into, oh, we're not doing anything to them because they just paid us a hundred million dollars.

00:11:14.460 Of course, but they're always paying us a hundred million dollars.

00:11:17.080 This is our relationship with them.

00:11:18.640 It is.

00:11:19.100 They send us a lot of money and we send them stuff.

00:11:21.020 That's kind of I mean, look, that is it's not completely insignificant to the relationship.

00:11:26.140 Right.

00:11:26.500 I mean, there is there are these considerations.

00:11:28.740 And that is why when you're making a decision as the president of the United States, your decision is not solely based on, you know, what the media wants you to do.

00:11:38.720 Right.

00:11:39.160 Like it's about American interests and that should always be the primary choice.

00:11:43.540 If what the idea at the end of the day, if of American interests are harmed long term by a decision you might make, you have to take that into consideration.

00:11:52.380 It has to be your top priority.

00:11:54.560 Your top priority is not adjudicating murders in Turkey.

00:11:59.100 Right.

00:11:59.240 Like, I don't know if anybody knows this, but we a lot of countries that we're dealing with are murdering people all the time.

00:12:06.240 You know, how often do we hear that we should talk to North Korea before when now that Trump is doing it, no one wants him to talk to North Korea anymore.

00:12:12.560 So suddenly that's off the table now.

00:12:14.500 But I mean, this guy's been doing much worse things all over the world.

00:12:18.500 Terrible, terrible things are happening all the time.

00:12:20.360 The fact that this guy is a journalist or a columnist is a big part of the reason why, you know, I think the media cares so much about it and they're prioritizing it over, you know, some slaughter in Africa or some terrible thing that's happened in Russia.

00:12:34.880 Right. Like it's this is, you know, this is a journalist that they knew that was from, you know, that wound up working for an American newspaper.

00:12:43.100 So it is a big story and the details around it are so crazy, like such a 24 storyline that I can understand why it captures the interest.

00:12:51.040 But being patient and making sure you understand the actual facts of the situation before you act is not a negative.

00:12:58.080 And there's a lot at stake here, a lot at stake.

00:13:00.840 I mean, if you if you just start willy nilly throwing on sanctions on Saudi Arabia, they're going to retaliate and it's it's going to cost not us as much, but the rest of the world is going to suffer in oil.

00:13:14.960 That's what they've already threatened.

00:13:16.600 All right, go ahead and punish us and we'll cut off your oil supply.

00:13:19.780 Well, I think we get scant little from them, but other people get a lot.

00:13:23.480 Europe gets a lot of oil from Saudi Arabia.

00:13:25.780 So, yeah, you want to make sure you got all your T's crossed and I's dotted before you take any severe action, I would think.

00:13:34.280 Yeah. And look, it's a global market anyway.

00:13:36.060 Yeah. So it's it all affects each part of it affects the other parts.

00:13:40.140 And, you know, it's something to consider, though.

00:13:41.920 I mean, I think making a principled moral decision outweighs that a lot of times.

00:13:45.860 But American interests are have to be factored in the equation.

00:13:48.540 I think we've seen that happening too infrequently over the past few decades.

00:13:54.040 And that should start again.

00:15:11.060 888-727-BECK.

00:15:13.960 Can I hit you up with one quick thing on the Saudi Arabia situation?

00:15:17.500 Yeah.

00:15:18.100 Is it possible for us to settle on a pronunciation of this man's name?

00:15:22.680 I would like to call a conference of everyone in the world.

00:15:27.980 Of all media.

00:15:28.380 All media.

00:15:29.560 What are we supposed to call this guy?

00:15:31.300 Because I heard Khashoggi initially.

00:15:34.060 Yeah.

00:15:34.240 And I heard that one on CNN.

00:15:35.680 Okay.

00:15:36.080 We're supposed to.

00:15:36.580 CNN is the first name in news, right?

00:15:39.460 I mean, this is the big one, right?

00:15:41.920 Mm-hmm.

00:15:42.660 Then I heard Khashoggi.

00:15:45.040 Now, Khashoggi.

00:15:46.040 Or no.

00:15:46.960 Khashoggi?

00:15:47.580 Khashoggi.

00:15:48.080 Yes.

00:15:48.680 Khashoggi is the one that I think is, I thought was like the main.

00:15:52.140 That's what I thought.

00:15:52.920 Right?

00:15:53.240 I thought that was the one.

00:15:53.840 Because we've been hearing that name since the 80s with Adnan Khashoggi, who was a big arms

00:15:57.480 dealer.

00:15:57.900 Yeah.

00:15:58.060 And he was mentioned in the Iran-Contra hearings.

00:16:00.620 Mm-hmm.

00:16:00.940 So this is a name that's been out.

00:16:01.920 Then it was Khashoggi.

00:16:02.800 Yep.

00:16:02.920 But that doesn't, that's not a determining factor anymore.

00:16:04.980 Like if you call it Copenhagen for 500 years, it just turns to Copenhagen one day.

00:16:09.140 Right?

00:16:09.480 Just everybody starts saying Copenhagen.

00:16:11.080 It's Kabul.

00:16:11.800 It's Kabul.

00:16:12.220 It's Kabul.

00:16:12.600 It's Kabul.

00:16:12.800 No, it's Kabul.

00:16:13.920 It's Qatar.

00:16:14.700 It's Qatar.

00:16:15.240 Nope.

00:16:15.480 It's Qatar.

00:16:16.460 And then it was Qatar for a while.

00:16:17.800 Remember it was Qatar for a while?

00:16:19.020 Yeah.

00:16:19.640 I don't know.

00:16:20.340 I like you.

00:16:20.760 I don't know how this happens.

00:16:21.940 Osama bin Laden.

00:16:22.900 Then it was Usama bin Laden.

00:16:25.120 It was Al-Qaeda.

00:16:27.000 Al-Qaeda.

00:16:27.580 Al-Qaeda, Al-Qaeda, and it was Q-U-I-D-A and Q-A-E-D-A, all different spellings.

00:16:34.740 I don't understand it.

00:16:35.440 So I heard Khashoggi initially, then Khashoggi.

00:16:39.820 And now, on the way in today, I heard a New York Times person say Khashoggi.

00:16:47.620 Oh, really?

00:16:48.620 Khashoggi.

00:16:49.600 It's a whole new one.

00:16:51.020 And now, we're like a week into this story, and there's already three different pronunciations

00:16:54.820 of this guy's name.

00:16:55.780 Can we settle on something?

00:16:58.120 If we want to call him Bob, I'm fine with that.

00:17:01.140 You want to ask, I mean, what's his first name?

00:17:02.260 Jamal?

00:17:02.740 I'm fine.

00:17:03.160 Just let's call him Jamal.

00:17:04.360 Jamal was killed at the embassy.

00:17:06.600 We can all just say, hey, it was Jamal.

00:17:08.620 And we'll just all know it's Jamal Khashoggi, Khashoggi, or Khashoggi.

00:17:14.340 And then whatever the pronunciation is tomorrow.

00:17:16.240 But you're right.

00:17:16.860 We got to get together on that, because that drives me out of my mind.

00:17:19.320 It really is irritating.

00:17:20.380 Yeah, it is.

00:17:21.740 It is.

00:17:23.280 I never understood the Usama-Osama thing.

00:17:26.220 How did that happen?

00:17:27.180 Why did that happen?

00:17:28.300 Because it's even less explicable, right?

00:17:31.840 Here you have a situation where the name is spelled the same, but we're pronouncing it

00:17:36.460 different.

00:17:36.800 At least you can understand that.

00:17:38.720 Osama went to Usama.

00:17:39.960 They changed a letter.

00:17:41.780 They just said, no, it's not a no.

00:17:43.340 It's a U now.

00:17:44.860 The guy went from mid-range pick in kickball to last pick.

00:17:50.340 It's like, when does this happen?

00:17:52.440 You're just changing the name.

00:17:53.620 The guy's dead.

00:17:55.160 And no one ever explained it either.

00:17:56.480 No one ever said, you know, Osama's wrong.

00:17:59.880 It should be You-sama.

00:18:01.980 You-sama.

00:18:03.100 Why?

00:18:04.660 No.

00:18:05.540 No, it just started, and people just started using it.

00:18:08.160 Very strange.

00:18:09.680 It is very strange.

00:18:11.420 And like some of it, I guess I understand.

00:18:13.320 Like, for example, here we say the tiny little country that James Bond goes to the casino

00:18:17.720 is Monaco, right?

00:18:19.300 Mm-hmm.

00:18:19.820 If you're over there, they call it Monaco.

00:18:22.980 It's Monaco.

00:18:23.580 Everyone calls it Monaco.

00:18:24.820 I've never heard that pronunciation.

00:18:26.560 Here's another one.

00:18:27.640 Here we say Mazda for the car.

00:18:30.340 Mm-hmm.

00:18:30.640 If you listen, as a Canadian sports celebrity I do quite often to Toronto Blue Jays games

00:18:36.080 on the radio, they say Mazda.

00:18:38.540 It's Mazda of Toronto.

00:18:40.080 That's really irritating.

00:18:41.620 Really?

00:18:42.240 I wouldn't listen to that.

00:18:43.920 I would say, I mean, wouldn't you be pissed off if you're Mazda?

00:18:46.600 Yes.

00:18:46.800 Don't call us Mazda.

00:18:47.840 We're not Mazda.

00:18:48.780 That's not who we are.

00:18:49.860 I've also noticed the Jaguars are being called Jaguar.

00:18:52.600 Jaguar!

00:18:53.300 On the commercials.

00:18:55.160 Jaguar?

00:18:55.840 What?

00:18:56.960 It's like if you come up with a name on your own, maybe you can describe to us how it's

00:19:03.100 pronounced.

00:19:03.880 But when it's a word we already know, it's Jaguars a word.

00:19:06.220 And when we've been saying it for a hundred years, stop it.

00:19:09.360 It's an animal.

00:19:10.320 Yes.

00:19:11.240 It's not just a car.

00:19:12.460 It's an animal too.

00:19:13.500 Right.

00:19:13.980 And nobody ever says Jaguars.

00:19:17.180 The Jacksonville Jaguars.

00:19:19.660 No, I think that's, see, I think that's Jaguar trying to seem refined.

00:19:25.020 Right?

00:19:25.220 Like there's something a little snooty about the way they pronounce it.

00:19:30.040 Jaguar is like, ah, it's that stupid animal over there ripping up my dog.

00:19:34.420 And this Jaguar.

00:19:35.400 Would you be that calm if Jaguar's over there ripping up my puppy?

00:19:40.520 Yeah, I'm all tearing into my dog.

00:19:41.940 Yeah, that's terrible.

00:19:42.700 But luckily I fell with my bone saw on top of it, so everything's going to be okay.

00:19:46.600 That happens.

00:19:49.060 It does.

00:19:49.640 You know, three times last week alone for me, and it was 50-some for you?

00:19:53.620 Well, over the last three weeks.

00:19:54.820 Okay.

00:19:55.160 Oh, okay.

00:19:55.800 No wonder.

00:19:57.040 888-727-BECK.

00:20:02.400 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:20:04.620 With Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed, which you can now hear immediately preceding this show

00:20:09.720 on the Blaze Radio and Television Network.

00:20:11.600 Okay, Stu here, but Glenn is at a triathlon off the coast of South Africa somewhere, right?

00:20:19.060 And he's just, you know, because he's such a physical specimen, he likes to challenge himself.

00:20:25.300 So that's what he's doing today.

00:20:28.100 He claims he's not going to finish any better than third, but I don't know.

00:20:32.580 I think he's got a great chance of winning the third.

00:20:34.260 I don't think so, yeah.

00:20:35.100 He's very modest.

00:20:36.860 So we'll see how that turns out.

00:20:38.240 We'll give you the updates when we get them.

00:20:39.500 We need to warn you about something that's incredibly dangerous in our society and all

00:20:44.100 too prevalent, and that's Disney princesses.

00:20:46.700 We're being warned by some Hollywood actresses that there's some danger there.

00:20:52.940 Keira Knightley is promoting her upcoming movie, which was produced by Disney, by the way,

00:21:00.100 The Nutcracker in the Four Realms.

00:21:01.540 But she told Ellen DeGeneres on Tuesday that she's not a fan of every movie the studio's

00:21:07.460 produced because Disney princesses don't uphold her feminist values.

00:21:14.320 So she has forbidden her three-year-old daughter, Edie, from watching certain movies like Cinderella,

00:21:19.880 which has been banned in her household because she waits around for a rich guy to rescue her.

00:21:25.200 And she says, don't rescue yourself, obviously.

00:21:30.440 And this is the one I'm...

00:21:31.320 But she's mad because Cinderella waits to be rescued and does not rescue herself.

00:21:36.080 Yes.

00:21:36.800 She doesn't pull herself out of that situation.

00:21:39.360 She's also quite annoyed by The Little Mermaid.

00:21:43.060 She's banned that as well.

00:21:44.860 She says, the songs are great, but don't give your voice up for a man.

00:21:51.000 Amen.

00:21:51.780 Yeah, thank you.

00:21:52.640 Because a lot of women are doing that today.

00:21:54.280 That's the main message of the song, of really the entire movie,

00:21:58.320 is to give up all of your rights to men and wait for them to rescue you, especially a rich guy.

00:22:05.500 That's the message you should be taking from those movies.

00:22:09.580 Kristen Bell is also fearful that Disney princesses are sending the wrong message to her children.

00:22:15.060 She's actually the voice of a Disney princess, Anna in Frozen.

00:22:19.640 Wasn't that done by Kristen Bell?

00:22:21.100 Yes.

00:22:21.340 So, she tells her daughters, Lincoln and Delta, that when she reads Snow White...

00:22:29.540 Delta Bell?

00:22:30.780 Yes.

00:22:31.320 And Lincoln Bell.

00:22:32.120 Yes.

00:22:32.400 And when she reads Snow White to him, she closes up the book and she says, every time we close Snow White,

00:22:38.460 I look at my girls and ask, don't you think it's weird that Snow White didn't ask the old witch why she needed to eat the apple?

00:22:45.260 Or where she got that apple?

00:22:47.860 I say, I would never take food from a stranger.

00:22:51.140 Would you?

00:22:52.220 And my kids are like, no.

00:22:54.520 And I'm like, okay, I'm doing something right.

00:22:57.700 Yeah.

00:22:58.580 You've proved it.

00:23:00.720 Wow, you nailed that one there, Kristen.

00:23:03.160 Then, she'll also say, and girls, don't you think it's weird that the prince kisses Snow White without her permission?

00:23:10.760 Well, no, because she's in a coma, Mom.

00:23:13.720 She can't give her permission and she'll stay in a coma if he doesn't kiss her.

00:23:18.080 Right.

00:23:18.620 I mean, she's advocating for the coma to continue, right?

00:23:21.520 The kiss is what brings her out of it.

00:23:23.200 Right.

00:23:23.400 And Belle says, because you can't kiss someone if they're sleeping.

00:23:27.480 Well, no.

00:23:28.300 I mean, I would say in most circumstances, that's true.

00:23:32.300 However, this is a notable circumstance, which is why it's a movie and a book.

00:23:36.580 Right.

00:23:37.060 The reason why you know about it is because it's different than everyday life.

00:23:40.560 Right?

00:23:41.200 You know, there's a magical apple.

00:23:44.100 There's a prince.

00:23:46.380 Right, with a magical spell on the princess.

00:23:48.940 Yes.

00:23:49.220 And she's sleeping because she can't wake up unless the prince kisses her.

00:23:53.880 That's kind of the premise.

00:23:55.040 Yeah.

00:23:55.420 So, it's a unique circumstance that perhaps your lessons don't apply to.

00:24:01.500 So silly.

00:24:02.820 So weird.

00:24:03.900 You can get yourself so worked up about that.

00:24:05.800 You know what I hope happens every day is every day when she brings breakfast to them, they ask her, well, where did this come from, Mommy?

00:24:13.080 I hope they just torture her with this for the rest of her life.

00:24:16.460 Because, I mean, you could, I can understand this, you know, sometimes, I think even, you know, like, conservatives get made fun of when they do these types of things.

00:24:25.280 Like, when you watch, you know, there's one cartoon that the kids were watching at one point that was, and it was just, it was just like a nonstop commercial for recycling.

00:24:33.820 And it was like, look.

00:24:34.740 Oh, was that Captain Planet or whatever?

00:24:36.200 No, that is an actual, that one is actually a legitimate effort to change kids' minds about environmentalism.

00:24:42.120 You know, people who created it actually have talked about that.

00:24:45.060 But I don't know what this one was.

00:24:46.420 It might have been Peppa Pig or something.

00:24:47.920 It's usually Peppa Pig.

00:24:48.860 I like Peppa Pig a lot.

00:24:50.480 And Peppa, it was talking about, you know, recycling or something.

00:24:54.000 I don't know, and how important it was.

00:24:55.160 And look, you know, there's nothing like recycling, whatever.

00:24:57.160 Like, I don't have any passion for recycling.

00:24:59.900 I think there's some, there's some, there's some conflicting evidence as to what good it does.

00:25:05.940 There's been several studies that have shown not much, not much, if any.

00:25:09.800 Clearly, you don't work for Alcoa.

00:25:11.680 Apparently not.

00:25:12.580 No.

00:25:13.040 But, you know, like, I don't know.

00:25:14.920 Do I really need a giant commercial about environmentalism on my kids' programming?

00:25:20.340 No.

00:25:20.480 I mean, I feel like no.

00:25:21.540 No.

00:25:21.940 But, I mean, you also can get a little bit worked up about that stuff.

00:25:25.000 Mm-hmm.

00:25:25.260 You know, I mean, you can get a little, a little fired up with trying to find the political

00:25:29.560 messages and these things, even if they're there.

00:25:31.740 I mean, kids grow up into, you know, adults that can think for themselves.

00:25:36.680 And, you know, you kind of have to, at some point, realize that you're not going to be

00:25:41.240 able to control every little bit of that.

00:25:42.780 You can just, you can do your best.

00:25:44.380 And I guess, with her values, probably the most important thing is to point out, I mean,

00:25:48.560 she's probably doing, you know, very worried about, you know, she thinks Brett Kavanaugh's

00:25:53.560 are everywhere.

00:25:54.400 Yeah.

00:25:54.720 And at any point, there could be an assault going on.

00:25:57.620 And, you know, I mean, maybe this is, this is consistent with what she wants to pass

00:26:01.680 along.

00:26:02.020 To me, it's just, it's a little odd.

00:26:03.640 It is.

00:26:04.340 And I remember when people were concerned, conservatives were concerned mostly about some

00:26:09.120 of these Disney movies because of the things that they put in the Disney movie.

00:26:12.480 Like, in the, is it the Rescuers?

00:26:16.580 Are the Rescuers down under one of those?

00:26:18.400 There's a scene where the character is going down a street on, I don't know, some type

00:26:25.700 of vehicle.

00:26:26.140 And there's a woman on the, in one of the buildings they pass that's naked for just a

00:26:33.960 split second.

00:26:35.160 I remember hearing about this.

00:26:36.160 Yeah.

00:26:36.360 Yeah.

00:26:36.840 So conservatives would talk about that and it would be, oh, stop it.

00:26:41.740 You can't even see that.

00:26:43.120 That's it's subliminal.

00:26:44.460 You don't even know it's there.

00:26:46.080 And then there was the Lion King scene where Simba as, as a grown lion kind of plops down

00:26:56.200 on the side of a cliff and the dust shoots up and forms the word sex.

00:27:02.280 If you freeze frame it.

00:27:03.760 Remember that?

00:27:04.660 Remember this?

00:27:05.020 Yeah.

00:27:05.300 Remember that?

00:27:05.680 But we were insane for talking about any of that stuff.

00:27:08.740 Oh, please.

00:27:09.660 That's nonsense.

00:27:10.660 But you're supposed to tell your kids, uh, you need to ask where that apple is from.

00:27:16.880 Why?

00:27:17.360 Why do I need to eat the apple?

00:27:19.300 It's essentially, she's saying that rape culture is happening at Disney.

00:27:22.640 Yes.

00:27:22.980 And that's a terrifying message.

00:27:24.360 I would think to send to children.

00:27:26.340 Terrifying.

00:27:26.800 I mean, although we've, we've had this before.

00:27:28.880 I mean, the one I always think about is Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, which is a

00:27:33.400 movie I freaking love.

00:27:34.280 I mean, I love that movie.

00:27:35.800 But how about the scene where they're just going through the tunnel and, and all of a

00:27:39.880 sudden, like a really quick, like subliminal things, you see like a chicken get its head

00:27:43.680 cut off.

00:27:44.760 Like, why the hell is this in this children's movie?

00:27:47.700 It's terrifying.

00:27:48.660 That whole scene is terrifying.

00:27:50.540 It's like, I don't remember that.

00:27:51.900 Oh my God.

00:27:52.640 Like they go through this tunnel and it's like really like psychedelic and weird.

00:27:55.900 And like, it's supposed to be.

00:27:56.600 I remember that being.

00:27:57.400 Yeah.

00:27:57.880 Well, I look close at what's going on in there.

00:27:59.640 It's not good.

00:28:00.680 There's some really scary stuff.

00:28:02.240 So a chicken gets its head cut off.

00:28:03.140 Yeah.

00:28:03.400 Like there's like a close up of.

00:28:06.140 Why?

00:28:06.880 Now you're making me think.

00:28:08.220 I don't know.

00:28:08.700 It's, I think it's supposed to, the scene is supposed to set the like off putting, uh,

00:28:14.620 like it's supposed to give you an off putting feel, right?

00:28:16.740 Like it's supposed to be like, things are all, everything's twisting around and like

00:28:19.720 it's dimensions are almost changing and like all these strange things are happening.

00:28:23.400 And you see like the scary, uh, what was the guy's name?

00:28:26.120 Uh, with the, with the ever left last, he wanted the everlasting gobstopper and he kept harassing

00:28:30.780 the poor kid for it.

00:28:32.280 And then he worked for Willy Wonka at the end.

00:28:34.160 I don't remember.

00:28:35.100 Uh, God, I want to say Squidward, but that's Bob, SpongeBob.

00:28:38.180 I got a lot of things messed up in my mind.

00:28:40.100 Maybe none of this happened.

00:28:41.200 No, I think.

00:28:41.940 And then he's going through it and it's supposed to give you that weird, like you're almost

00:28:45.420 dizzy feeling.

00:28:46.580 Yeah.

00:28:46.740 And they flash like a bunch of really fast images.

00:28:48.600 And one of them is like, like they're just cutting a chicken's head off in the middle

00:28:52.480 of it.

00:28:52.720 Very strange.

00:28:52.920 It's very strange.

00:28:53.840 Yeah.

00:28:54.120 So we've been tortured with this stuff for a long time and look how well we turned out.

00:28:57.000 The world's fine.

00:28:57.940 Right.

00:28:58.580 Everything's going really well.

00:28:59.840 So I can't see how there'd be any downside.

00:29:04.260 I guess you can get to that point where you're over, you're over parenting, right?

00:29:09.000 Oh, definitely.

00:29:09.640 And that certainly seems to be the way, uh, you know, that things are going now.

00:29:13.300 We, we, um, we recently started, uh, letting our son try.

00:29:17.460 Cause I listened to Lenore Skenazy a lot.

00:29:20.080 She's been on the show before.

00:29:21.260 She started an organization called let grow and, uh, uh, free range kids.

00:29:26.180 And basically her mission in life is to make kids do some things.

00:29:30.940 Yeah.

00:29:31.180 Like you don't need to helicopter parent over them all the time.

00:29:34.140 She's famous for, uh, she lived in New York, still does it believe.

00:29:38.240 And she let her nine-year-old go on the New York city subway system by himself.

00:29:42.680 And she was called the worst parent in America.

00:29:46.500 And you're honestly, my immediate reaction when I read that story initially was she's

00:29:52.200 the worst parent in America, right?

00:29:54.020 Like you're nine-year-old on a subway by themselves.

00:29:56.440 Like, I can't even imagine the amount of panic I would have, but then you, you kind of step

00:30:01.120 back.

00:30:01.140 Yeah, I couldn't do it.

00:30:01.640 I don't think I could do it either.

00:30:02.980 Um, but you step back and you say, well, wait a minute.

00:30:05.100 Like George Washington was like, I think he won the revolutionary award at eight years

00:30:08.980 old or something like this.

00:30:09.860 This is, we went through a long period of time where people were, uh, supposed to be as

00:30:14.820 kids a much more self-sufficient, you know, I know when I was a kid, like we would leave

00:30:20.160 the house and we would go play at a friend's houses that all the time, all the time would

00:30:23.780 be gone the whole day and that whole thing about us coming back and, um, you know, you

00:30:29.620 come back when it gets dark or when the streetlights come on and like, it's, we use that a lot of

00:30:36.040 times to signify things were safer and better than, well, that's not even true.

00:30:40.120 I grew up in the nineties.

00:30:41.580 This is like the eighties and the nineties, more of the eighties, but still like I was in

00:30:45.400 high school in America by far, much more dangerous than now.

00:30:48.620 This was a much, I mean, the crime rates were all higher.

00:30:52.140 Uh, murders were higher.

00:30:54.260 Kidnappings were higher.

00:30:55.020 Everything was worse.

00:30:56.220 School shootings were at the rate of four times what they are now when I was in high school

00:31:00.620 and I didn't have a minute of panic over a school shooting in my entire life.

00:31:04.200 And I think we get to that point where we're just, we get so freaked out.

00:31:07.460 We recently had our, you know, we have our son like walking, walking our dog, like a little

00:31:11.740 chore and he's doing it by himself, uh, just up the street a little bit and back.

00:31:16.200 And I could tell you just that freaks me out.

00:31:20.260 Like I can, it's everything in me not to walk to the end of my driveway and spy on him to

00:31:24.580 make sure he's okay the entire time.

00:31:26.420 And I don't know why that is.

00:31:28.140 That certainly isn't how it was when I was a kid.

00:31:30.380 Yeah.

00:31:30.820 Uh, and I, I somehow lived through it.

00:31:33.840 I think that's the, the instinct there is to just make sure you're mentioning every little

00:31:39.140 thing that you think could go wrong in their life so that if that thing does go wrong,

00:31:42.680 you can't blame yourself, you know, it's like, it's almost a selfish instinct where

00:31:46.060 you're just like, well, at least I told him, I remember telling my kid 500 times not to

00:31:49.640 go down dark alleys and they went down a dark alley and well, it's really sad, but at least

00:31:53.240 it's not my fault.

00:31:54.200 That's a, that's not a really healthy instinct for a parent.

00:31:56.840 I do feel like that is at the basis of it because of course you don't want, no one wants

00:32:00.740 anything bad to happen to their kids, but it's additional to that.

00:32:03.580 Like you don't want to be the person who let your kid walk down some street and that

00:32:08.920 where something terrible happened because everyone's going to look at you and say, what the hell

00:32:11.980 were you doing allowing them to walk down that street?

00:32:14.040 Why weren't you there?

00:32:15.140 Yeah.

00:32:15.400 So it's like a double whammy and I think that leads to a lot of that over parenting stuff

00:32:20.140 and, and I'm sure this is the boat she's in, Kristen Bell, right?

00:32:24.220 Like she's trying to protect, I mean, look, you're not going to, you're not going to say

00:32:26.940 anything to a four-year-old reading Cinderella that's going to protect them from rape culture.

00:32:31.420 That's not going to occur.

00:32:33.020 You're never, you're never going to be able to solve this problem you believe is so prevalent

00:32:37.320 by a story you tell them after reading Cinderella or watching it or the little mermaid or any

00:32:46.040 of these Disney movies, because they're already going to be messed up from Simba falling down

00:32:53.680 and blowing the word sex into the air from the dust.

00:32:58.360 That's going to mess them up.

00:32:59.440 A lot of teen pregnancies.

00:33:00.600 A lot of them.

00:33:02.100 Triple eight, seven, two, seven, B-E-C-K.

00:33:07.860 This is unbelievable.

00:33:09.540 We are looking into the original versions of some of these princess stories, the fairy

00:33:17.900 tales that have been Disney-fied over the years.

00:33:22.160 And Kristen Bell is shocked by them and, and warns her daughters about them.

00:33:27.000 And so is Keira Knightley, despite the fact that both of them have been in Disney movies.

00:33:32.100 Uh, but if you're to, uh, go back and look at the original version of say Sleeping Beauty,

00:33:36.880 it's, it's shocking, shocking what that, what, what, what it, what it entails.

00:33:46.620 In what way?

00:33:48.820 Um, well, for instance, in the original version, the very original version of Sleeping Beauty,

00:33:54.540 the king sneaks into Sleeping Beauty's castle and rapes her.

00:33:58.580 And she wakes up pregnant.

00:34:01.940 What?

00:34:02.480 Yeah.

00:34:02.900 Wait, what do you mean?

00:34:03.580 This isn't a Disney.

00:34:04.400 Is that amazing?

00:34:05.200 The original like story or?

00:34:07.020 The original story from an Italian guy, Jim Battista Basili.

00:34:11.780 Hmm.

00:34:12.060 Uh, that was his original story.

00:34:14.720 Now, they took a lot of his original stories.

00:34:18.600 Um, Charles Peralt in the late 17th century and then the brothers Grimm in the 1800s took

00:34:24.120 those stories and reworked them, changed them a little bit.

00:34:26.980 But the original was like really horrible.

00:34:30.580 When you say they reworked them, did they cut down on, on the amounts of rapes?

00:34:33.880 Yes.

00:34:34.120 Was that, was that one of the things that they?

00:34:35.440 Sexual assault was something they decided, you know what?

00:34:37.540 Maybe for a children's book, we don't include that.

00:34:40.360 Yeah, well that's slightly, what if we cut back the rape by 20%?

00:34:42.920 Yeah.

00:34:43.200 What if we did something like that?

00:34:44.220 Is that something you'd be open to?

00:34:46.180 Uh.

00:34:46.280 I'm thinking like a hundred.

00:34:47.440 Oh wow.

00:34:47.800 Yeah.

00:34:48.100 Okay.

00:34:48.600 All right.

00:34:48.880 A hundred percent on the cutback of.

00:34:50.780 Yeah.

00:34:51.580 Uh, cause that's pretty amazing.

00:34:54.780 Pretty amazing.

00:34:55.460 So, even these tame versions that we see today, those are still offensive and horrible and you

00:35:00.400 can't let your kids see them, I guess.

00:35:02.780 Um, uh, it's amazing.

00:35:04.960 Yeah.

00:35:05.220 It's, it's, it's interesting what we, what we, the way these standards change, we should

00:35:09.740 get into this.

00:35:10.360 There's a new report on Louis CK, uh, out today.

00:35:12.880 Maybe we can get into that later on today.

00:35:15.060 Uh, because it's interesting, the standards that are being applied here.

00:35:18.900 Like I, I, people just.

00:35:21.280 From the same thing, like him asking for permission and then granting it and.

00:35:25.820 Yeah.

00:35:26.080 And like now is he allowed back on stage or should he be allowed back on stage to ever

00:35:30.600 work again?

00:35:31.220 And it's so fascinating, you know, this comes from the left who have been, you know, launched

00:35:35.340 massive programs to employ former, uh, you know, convicts of crimes that are much worse.

00:35:42.500 Yeah.

00:35:43.080 It's amazing.

00:35:46.680 Glenn Beck.

00:35:48.380 Pat Gray and, uh, Stu Bergeer for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

00:35:52.600 Triple eight, seven, two, seven, B-E-C-K.

00:35:54.800 You can join, uh, me for Pat Gray unleashed immediately preceding, uh, this particular

00:35:59.760 program.

00:36:00.200 We'll wake up and get you ready for a Glenn show every morning, Monday through Friday.

00:36:04.340 Uh, Kobe Bryant is the latest victim of the me too movement.

00:36:08.000 Uh, apparently he was invited to a, uh, an animation film festival to be a juror, uh, about

00:36:14.860 some of the, some of the new animation films that were coming out.

00:36:17.320 And they invited him to, to be part of that because he just won an Oscar actually for,

00:36:22.100 uh, his basketball movie.

00:36:24.180 And so he agreed to do that.

00:36:25.900 And then the me too movement reminded these people that of course, uh, he's been accused

00:36:31.320 in the past and, uh, 15 years ago he was accused of rape.

00:36:35.000 Now those charges were dropped.

00:36:37.760 And so the whole thing was adjudicated.

00:36:39.660 Now you, it used to be that if charges were dropped, you were considered to be not guilty,

00:36:45.900 right?

00:36:46.780 Of whatever interest you were charged with.

00:36:49.360 You're bringing up.

00:36:49.740 Where did you come up with that idea?

00:36:50.700 Um, Oh, is it in, uh, mansplaining university?

00:36:54.680 Constitution.

00:36:55.020 Could it be that?

00:36:55.660 Uh, could it be patriarchal college?

00:36:58.680 Is that the, uh, is that where you went?

00:37:01.380 No.

00:37:01.840 No.

00:37:02.280 It's a U S constitution.

00:37:03.360 I'm not familiar with it.

00:37:04.600 Yeah.

00:37:04.840 It's a, it's a thing that you don't really need to pay attention to anymore because it's

00:37:09.020 really old, really old.

00:37:10.560 You know, it's really seemed to be a high priority of the founders to make sure that people

00:37:15.700 weren't accused of crimes and punished for them with no evidence, uh, and, uh, no way

00:37:22.760 to give someone due process, due process, seemingly important to the founding of this

00:37:27.080 country.

00:37:27.680 Seemingly, but it's no longer important because just the accusation is enough to, I guess,

00:37:32.640 ruin you.

00:37:33.000 I mean, Colby Bryant went on to have a really good career and he, I don't know, just a few

00:37:38.280 years after he was accused, maybe even the next year, he signed $136 million deal.

00:37:44.120 So his life was okay.

00:37:46.640 Um, however, when it's affecting him now, 15 years later, and it's already been worked

00:37:52.440 out in whatever way, the 19 year old refused to testify against him.

00:37:57.860 Uh, they dropped the charges that used to mean, okay, he wasn't guilty, but now it just

00:38:04.660 means, um, you're tainted for life.

00:38:08.120 If you've ever been accused of anything.

00:38:09.980 Yeah.

00:38:10.100 I don't know.

00:38:10.500 I don't know if it's like this constant barrage we've had for the past few decades of CSI

00:38:15.620 and law and order, but every institution is not supposed to be investigators.

00:38:18.920 They're all supposed to be able to solve crimes that the police can't solve.

00:38:22.740 They're all supposed to know more information.

00:38:24.660 And, you know, this happens in the NFL all the time and the NBA and it's like, there's

00:38:27.780 a crime committed and there's an accusation and they'll just release the player.

00:38:31.540 It's like, well, wait a minute.

00:38:32.880 Don't they get a chance?

00:38:34.560 Right.

00:38:34.740 I mean, it's one thing I, maybe if you have video or something that really proves is that

00:38:38.260 something went down, just these accusations many times before trials will be enough for

00:38:43.620 them to just, you know, throw the player to the curb and it's over.

00:38:47.040 And it's like, well, you know, and that is not the responsibility nor should it be of, of an

00:38:53.000 employer and employer should not be investigating an alleged crime of an employee.

00:38:58.480 We have a legal system to do that.

00:39:00.020 And you know who really got in trouble by going down this road was the Catholic church.

00:39:03.700 The Catholic church kept investigating their own accusations of pedophilia instead of bringing

00:39:09.880 it over to the police and saying, Hey, there's some real situation going on here.

00:39:12.680 Can you check it out?

00:39:13.740 They tried to handle it internally.

00:39:16.240 Colleges do this today.

00:39:17.300 They try to prosecute, uh, they've actually got rape courts, rape courts at school.

00:39:22.940 Yeah.

00:39:23.560 Which is insanity.

00:39:25.080 It is not, you are not taking a situation seriously.

00:39:28.720 If you bring it to rape court at a college, that is not the place to this.

00:39:33.040 These are serious crimes and need to be dealt with in the legal system.

00:39:37.840 And when you try to go around that and you try to say, well, we know better than the police.

00:39:43.580 We know better than the investigators because I don't know, it really looks bad or, uh, I

00:39:49.520 don't know.

00:39:49.820 It really looks like, uh, this was, this happened.

00:39:52.600 That's, that's, that's a terrible direction to go and lead you down awful roads where you're

00:39:56.640 trying to judge things that you can't possibly judge correctly.

00:39:59.500 Yeah.

00:39:59.720 And it's, it's going to be interesting to see how this progresses, uh, in a year or two

00:40:04.840 or five from now with Brett Kavanaugh, because there was nothing to back up, uh, his accusers

00:40:11.640 claims.

00:40:12.360 There was no corroboration.

00:40:13.800 There was no evidence at all of these allegations from 35 plus years ago.

00:40:19.840 And yet, uh, I just saw an article today about, from Democrats looking at other ways besides,

00:40:28.880 uh, impeachment on how to remove a Supreme court justice from office.

00:40:34.120 Yeah.

00:40:35.180 Uh, just unbelievable.

00:40:36.100 I mean, the guy, so you're going to try to remove him from, from the Supreme court bench

00:40:40.620 when there was no corroboration and no evidence.

00:40:43.840 Yeah.

00:40:44.260 And you know, first of all, I think once we get past this election, the Brett Kavanaugh stuff

00:40:49.740 is going to die down quite a bit because I mean, you've seen, when's the last time you

00:40:53.040 seen, I hope that's true.

00:40:54.300 Dr.

00:40:54.680 Ford, uh, you know, you don't hear occasionally you'll hear from Anita Hill 20 years after,

00:40:58.940 right.

00:40:59.080 But it's more like a retrospective or it's tying into a new story.

00:41:01.700 You know, they still hate Clarence Thomas and the lowest hate Brett Kavanaugh, but I

00:41:06.320 mean, it never was about these allegations.

00:41:08.220 There was never a moment in which that story was about the allegations.

00:41:11.580 It was always about the opportunity to stop Brett Kavanaugh from sitting on the court because

00:41:16.840 they thought they had a chance of winning, uh, the Senate and could block, block the next

00:41:20.920 justice.

00:41:21.300 And maybe they wouldn't have to deal with another conservative on the court.

00:41:24.180 Well, that was 100% of it for every, for every single person involved with the possible

00:41:29.960 exception of Dr.

00:41:31.300 Ford, which you could at least say, maybe she went through this and certainly she only brought

00:41:35.480 it up now because of the Supreme court.

00:41:36.680 So that's, it was definitely part of her calculus there.

00:41:39.460 Um, but you know, if she really did go through this, you know, that that's a different story.

00:41:42.860 We don't know.

00:41:44.020 Um, but the other people in Corey Booker did not care for one second about what happened

00:41:49.240 to this woman.

00:41:49.700 Not at all.

00:41:49.960 Not even for a second.

00:41:50.760 No, he only cared about what happened to him.

00:41:52.220 So he could call himself Spartacus, uh, and eventually, uh, make himself into a 2020

00:41:57.440 candidate.

00:41:58.180 And the same thing with Kamala Harris and the same thing, all of this, all of these people,

00:42:01.860 they didn't care at all.

00:42:03.460 Um, and yeah, and this, and look, it's clear with things like Keith Ellison, which is currently

00:42:07.280 going on, which actually has evidence behind it, uh, which is going on currently, which

00:42:11.280 actually gone to, uh, the police.

00:42:14.260 And, and again, if, if, if what we find out is that there's nothing to it, you have to

00:42:18.940 just like I would with anybody else say that he, you know, is not guilty and should be able

00:42:23.000 to do what he has to do.

00:42:23.940 But if you're judging it by the standards that they're putting up, it's totally different.

00:42:28.300 Look, let me put this in.

00:42:29.540 I thought this was fascinating.

00:42:30.740 After, I think of how recent this Brett Kavanaugh thing was and absorb that story back in your

00:42:36.940 mind for a moment about what we were trying to find that Dr. Ford comes up and testifies

00:42:42.940 and says, I know these people, uh, they were there.

00:42:46.700 None of those people say that they remember this, this incident.

00:42:50.440 Uh, she didn't tell anybody for a very long period of time.

00:42:54.120 There was no, she couldn't remember where the house was.

00:42:57.060 She couldn't remember whose house it was.

00:42:58.300 She couldn't remember how she got there.

00:42:59.340 She couldn't remember how she got back.

00:43:00.480 What day it happened.

00:43:01.080 What month it happened.

00:43:02.320 Right.

00:43:02.500 None of it.

00:43:02.940 Right.

00:43:03.580 Um, and we were basically, the insinuation from the media was if let's say one of the

00:43:12.080 witnesses she named instead came out and said, yeah, I remember that party.

00:43:15.480 And I remember he being really shook up and she left and I remember it being very strange

00:43:19.260 and she was weird for the next three weeks.

00:43:21.000 She was just like, you know, very distant.

00:43:23.340 And I didn't know what was going on.

00:43:24.680 And now I know if you would have had just that, I think the media would have been in,

00:43:29.200 I mean, they already were in full conviction mode, but I don't think Collins and Flake would

00:43:32.700 have held on through something like that.

00:43:34.080 Just one person saying one thing, not with, as a witnessing the incident, but just, she

00:43:38.860 heard about it in the general time period.

00:43:40.380 Just one.

00:43:41.080 We're looking for one who even knew that the party occurred.

00:43:45.080 Not that the incident happened, just that the party occurred.

00:43:48.560 Listen to this.

00:43:49.300 This is from 1999 from Slate, the hardcore right-wing publication of Slate, talking about

00:43:55.840 the accusation of rape, not sexual assault, not sexual harassment, but rape against Bill

00:44:01.880 Clinton.

00:44:02.880 Broderick's initial denials indicate only that she shunned publicity.

00:44:07.680 That's why she never reported the rape, rebuffed advances from Clinton's political enemies

00:44:12.900 who in 1992 urged her to go public.

00:44:15.540 So they had to ask Broderick about this in 1992 when he was running for president the

00:44:19.500 first time.

00:44:20.220 And he, she said, no, I'm not going to tell my story.

00:44:23.580 So she had an opportunity to take down this president to not decide to do so.

00:44:28.240 She lied to Paula Jones lawyers about the incident to get out of talking about it.

00:44:33.040 She eventually told the FBI the truth in 1998 only because her son, a lawyer,

00:44:37.680 advised her against lying to federal investigators.

00:44:41.220 So she didn't want to tell the story to tear down the president.

00:44:43.820 She told the story because she thought she was going to get like perjury charges or something

00:44:48.000 against her.

00:44:49.240 Five people say, five people say Broderick told them about the rape immediately after

00:44:55.740 it occurred.

00:44:56.900 Wow.

00:44:57.520 So not looking for one person who was at the hotel or at the party in the Kavanaugh case.

00:45:02.260 She had five people that she told about the rape immediately after it occurred.

00:45:08.400 Uh, a friend and coworker named Norma Kelsey says 21 years ago, she found a dazed Broderick

00:45:13.800 with a bloodied lip and torn pantyhose in their shared hotel room.

00:45:18.300 Broderick explained that Clinton had just raped her.

00:45:21.960 Clinton is supposed to have bitten her on the lip right before raping her.

00:45:24.520 Her current husband, then her lover, says Broderick told him about, Broderick told him

00:45:28.840 about the rape as well within a few days of the event.

00:45:31.420 Broderick did not remember the date of the rape.

00:45:33.500 That's the one similarity here.

00:45:35.120 Though she did supply the name of the hotel, the Camelot, and the reason she was visiting

00:45:40.240 Little Rock, a nursing home seminar.

00:45:42.280 She also says that Clinton pointed to a ramshackle prison outside the hotel room window before

00:45:47.440 he raped her and said he planned to renovate it.

00:45:49.560 So Clinton, in the middle of about to go through a rape, is like, by the way, I'm going to renovate

00:45:53.640 that prison over there, a dork.

00:45:56.680 NBC News found a date in which a nursing home seminar was held at the Camelot Hotel and records

00:46:04.200 show that Broderick attended.

00:46:06.480 Newspaper reports suggest that Clinton was in the area and had no official commitments

00:46:11.440 in the early morning when the rape is supposed to have occurred.

00:46:14.260 There was a prison outside the hotel window.

00:46:17.880 Wow.

00:46:18.180 That is a thousand times the amount of even alleged evidence that occurred with Dr. Ford

00:46:27.540 and Brett Kavanaugh.

00:46:29.560 And yet that was ignored until the very second the Clinton family became useless to the Democrats.

00:46:37.380 And now, yeah, you'll see occasional people saying, yeah, we should have handled that differently

00:46:40.920 or I'm with you guys.

00:46:42.440 That's a total me too moment.

00:46:43.720 That only happens now after they never want to hear either one of their stories ever again.

00:46:49.980 To them, Hillary Clinton and the Clinton family is not guilty of this rape.

00:46:54.720 It's not guilty of that.

00:46:56.080 They're guilty of blowing an election to Donald Trump.

00:46:58.920 And that's why they have no more use for them.

00:47:01.880 But I mean, Bill Clinton goes along and still makes big level speeches.

00:47:05.280 Oh, yeah.

00:47:05.560 He's able to do all of these things.

00:47:06.860 This is a much more credible accusation.

00:47:10.360 And Paula Jones had a lot of evidence too, including corroborating witnesses of what happened there.

00:47:15.080 It's a situation with a double standard that is so bizarre.

00:47:19.420 And the fact that the media actually thinks we should take their current stance seriously on this stuff is insane.

00:47:28.720 The stance is and always has been you should be taken seriously when you report a crime against somebody else.

00:47:34.220 That crime should go through the legal system with actual standards.

00:47:39.220 And if they're held responsible for this crime, then we can all understand what happened.

00:47:44.520 I mean, that's the system we have.

00:47:46.900 It's the best in the world and the idea that we're now supposed to go through these kangaroo courts and even worse than that.

00:47:52.840 I mean, even worse than the kangaroo courts.

00:47:54.180 It's like, oh, well, I don't know.

00:47:56.120 Kind of seems like maybe he could have done it is now our standard.

00:48:00.740 That's insanity.

00:48:02.140 It's insanity.

00:48:02.780 And yet you have Hillary Clinton speaking out against Brett Kavanaugh and defending her husband.

00:48:11.420 And they just asked her what the difference was between the two.

00:48:15.560 And she said, well, yeah, they're completely different because my husband's improprieties were looked into for a really long time.

00:48:23.740 This was looked into for a week.

00:48:25.660 Well, there is substantial evidence, as you just pointed out, into all of the claims made by other women and Bill Clinton.

00:48:35.540 And the other difference is she went after and tried to destroy every single one of the accusers.

00:48:42.400 That was that was a big difference.

00:48:44.860 Nobody's trying to destroy Christine Blasey Ford.

00:48:48.380 Nobody's trying to destroy even the others that are making outrageous allegations against him that are completely uncorroborated.

00:48:55.040 The exception of Michael Avenatti, which I think the Democrats are currently trying to destroy because they are so pissed off about that.

00:49:02.720 And they do not want him running for president.

00:49:04.040 And they do not want the circus there.

00:49:05.860 Oh, so they are.

00:49:06.860 They are.

00:49:07.200 They are very much trying to destroy him at this point.

00:49:09.820 But what a clown he is.

00:49:11.100 He is.

00:49:11.540 Yeah.

00:49:11.940 I mean, it's it's embarrassing.

00:49:13.760 You thought Michael Cohen was a bad lawyer.

00:49:15.280 And then Michael Avenatti.

00:49:16.640 Yeah.

00:49:16.940 Who introduced himself to you.

00:49:18.480 But it's so bad that even Trevor Noah, who's the I mean, I thought Jon Stewart was unfunny.

00:49:26.500 This guy is unfunny to about the one millionth power.

00:49:31.360 But Trevor Noah on Comedy Central the other night took on Hillary Clinton and, you know, to his credit, actually said some some accurate things about her.

00:49:42.200 And and whether or not she's the best person to be speaking out on sexual allegations.

00:49:48.520 Here's what he said.

00:49:50.340 In retrospect, do you think Bill should have resigned in the wake of the Monica Lewinsky scan?

00:49:56.120 Absolutely not.

00:49:57.160 It wasn't an abuse of power.

00:49:58.540 No, no.

00:49:59.740 There are people who look at the incidents of the 90s and they say a president of the United States cannot have a consensual relationship with an intern.

00:50:09.400 The power imbalance is too great.

00:50:11.160 He's an adult.

00:50:11.960 But let me ask you this.

00:50:13.860 Where's the investigation of the current incumbent?

00:50:16.680 No, Hillary.

00:50:20.040 Oh, I'm sorry, man.

00:50:21.400 Look, here's the thing.

00:50:22.320 That's not cool.

00:50:23.040 Maybe it was different in the 90s.

00:50:25.100 But today, I think we're all understanding that there's a massive power imbalance between an intern and the president of the United States.

00:50:31.520 Right.

00:50:31.940 I mean, forget intern.

00:50:32.800 A president with anyone is a power imbalance.

00:50:35.240 Like if President Obama texted me, hey, Trevor, you up?

00:50:39.640 I'd have to let him smash.

00:50:41.240 Yeah.

00:50:42.260 And then he'd be like, actually, I just want to know if you're watching the game.

00:50:44.800 And I'd be like, oh, yeah, I knew that.

00:50:45.980 I knew that.

00:50:46.360 Of course I did.

00:50:46.860 Yeah.

00:50:46.980 And what's also not cool is Hillary trying to deflect and make this about Trump.

00:50:52.160 Like, you're not in a position to be throwing stones at someone, Hillary, especially when you're literally sitting in a glass house.

00:50:57.940 Other than the power dynamic thing, what he is saying there is really amazing because nobody takes her on like that on the left.

00:51:07.520 But I don't buy into the power dynamic that nobody can say no to the president of the United States.

00:51:12.040 Of course you could.

00:51:12.900 I mean, don't you?

00:51:13.540 Wouldn't you certainly try to raise your children to grow up to be people that would say no to the president of the United States?

00:51:18.200 Yes.

00:51:18.560 Absolutely.

00:51:19.080 Yeah.

00:51:19.660 You don't let him do whatever he wants to because he's the president.

00:51:23.480 And this is a side thing and maybe a longer conversation.

00:51:26.920 But Monica Lewinsky is not a Me Too victim.

00:51:31.020 She is not.

00:51:32.080 Right.

00:51:32.180 She was a willing participant in an old-fashioned affair is what she was.

00:51:37.360 And could have said no.

00:51:38.260 She could have said no.

00:51:39.440 She absolutely should have said no.

00:51:41.420 He obviously should have said no.

00:51:43.540 And from his perspective, you know, he's the president of the United States.

00:51:46.580 He is doing things that he should not be doing.

00:51:49.700 But, like, it's totally different than Juanita Broderick or Paula Jones.

00:51:53.740 These are totally different stories.

00:51:55.480 She was in love with the guy.

00:51:58.360 She told Linda Tripp she was in love with him.

00:52:02.180 Like, she thought that they eventually were going to be together and be married.

00:52:05.720 And this was not a situation in which she was like, oh, wow, I'm scared for my career, for example.

00:52:11.080 Like, that's the thing.

00:52:11.720 It's a power imbalance.

00:52:12.600 Well, there's an implication, even if the person doesn't do it, there's an implication that maybe they'll ruin your career if you don't hook up with them.

00:52:19.500 Which, first of all, is prosecuting a crime before it occurs.

00:52:23.460 Like, you're just assuming the person's going to commit a crime and ruin your career over sexual stuff.

00:52:28.480 But that's a whole different story.

00:52:29.820 That's not what happened here.

00:52:31.420 She was a willing participant in an affair.

00:52:33.600 She was into it.

00:52:34.460 And she was also, by the way, and the one point that is valid from Hillary there is she was an adult.

00:52:40.220 We should not be excusing all actions by 23-year-old women, right?

00:52:44.860 Or 23-year-old men.

00:52:46.360 You are an absolute, you are responsible for your own actions at that time.

00:52:50.200 No question.

00:52:51.080 Yeah.

00:52:51.560 888-727-BECK.

00:52:53.760 We have a sponsor, The Set Power.

00:53:06.440 And we've been hit hard the last couple of years.

00:53:08.960 When the power goes out, when something hits with a little warning, this Hurricane Michael was certainly in the situation.

00:53:15.200 And earthquakes are like this all the time.

00:54:10.500 Pat and Stu for Glenn today and tomorrow.

00:54:15.700 Let's go to Seth in Pennsylvania.

00:54:17.280 Hey, Seth.

00:54:17.660 You're on the Glenn Beck program.

00:54:19.720 Hey, guys.

00:54:20.140 How are you doing?

00:54:20.760 Good.

00:54:20.880 I'm laughing when you were talking about kind of her reading those stories and how we kind

00:54:27.000 of make fun of the reaction.

00:54:28.600 Well, believe it or not, that kind of stuff can really impact you.

00:54:32.340 I'm 42.

00:54:34.320 Today's my birthday.

00:54:35.560 Happy birthday.

00:54:36.660 Oh, thank you.

00:54:37.520 And I laugh because when I was about seven, there was an episode of the Smurfs.

00:54:42.280 And the Smurfs, it's this French socialist cartoon.

00:54:46.460 And I'll never forget it because Papa Smurf left the village and Brainiac declared himself

00:54:54.020 like king of the Smurfs and the other Smurfs rebelled.

00:54:58.060 And there was a war among the Smurfs because no one should be king.

00:55:04.140 And that singular message when I was a kid stuck with me my whole life.

00:55:09.940 And it's kind of why I became a libertarian.

00:55:13.020 It's why I went to law school and I argued the way I did.

00:55:17.320 It's why when I teach the college, when I teach the classes, it is this singular message

00:55:24.180 of no man is a king.

00:55:26.160 That is fantastic.

00:55:27.260 No man could ever be a king.

00:55:28.980 And you learned it from the Smurfs.

00:55:31.080 I learned it from that.

00:55:32.200 I will never forget it.

00:55:33.480 That one singular message.

00:55:35.640 Amazing.

00:55:36.520 Thanks, Seth.

00:55:37.200 Thanks.

00:55:43.020 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:55:45.880 With Pat and Stu, 888-727-BECK.

00:55:49.940 There's this, there's an interesting thing from the New York Times today.

00:55:54.120 And it is, they do this little podcast in the morning called The Daily.

00:55:57.880 And today's was about Louis C.K.

00:56:00.160 And whether Louis C.K. should be allowed back on stage.

00:56:03.740 Ever?

00:56:04.440 Ever.

00:56:04.720 Well, he did things in front of girls.

00:56:08.240 Right.

00:56:08.660 After he asked him if he could.

00:56:10.460 Yeah, and that is.

00:56:11.080 And they said yes.

00:56:12.160 An odd part of this saga with him in particular is that there doesn't seem to be much of an

00:56:16.980 alleg, much if any allegations of him doing something that.

00:56:22.960 Against anybody's will.

00:56:24.320 Right.

00:56:24.500 Like he would ask, they say yes.

00:56:26.120 Or there was one case where he, again, like this is the level of the accusation here.

00:56:34.640 He was accused of calling up someone and while he was on the phone with the woman, the woman

00:56:43.280 believed that he was pleasuring himself while on the phone with her because I guess he was

00:56:49.880 breathing heavy or something.

00:56:51.140 And she couldn't hang up because of the power dynamic?

00:56:54.900 The power dynamic.

00:56:55.360 Absolutely.

00:56:55.720 Yeah.

00:56:56.260 The power dynamic makes you do all sorts of things.

00:56:58.240 Okay.

00:56:58.700 Because as a comedian, he wields incredible power in this country.

00:57:05.560 Now look.

00:57:06.500 Incredible.

00:57:06.660 He could have her fired at any job in the nation.

00:57:09.900 Any job.

00:57:10.820 Your sarcasm is just reality in this situation.

00:57:13.860 I was like, what?

00:57:15.120 That's actually what they were saying.

00:57:16.720 They were saying that she.

00:57:17.440 Oh my gosh.

00:57:17.920 Some of the people were other comedians.

00:57:20.800 And at one point, one of the accusations was he walked up to another comedian.

00:57:24.960 And they were talking.

00:57:26.400 And I guess he thought there was a vibe there or something.

00:57:29.040 Invited her back to his trailer to do his thing in front of her, which apparently was

00:57:33.140 this is his shtick.

00:57:34.960 And she said, actually, you know, you have a wife and a child and you should think about

00:57:40.280 that.

00:57:40.520 And he said, ah, I know.

00:57:41.560 I'm sorry.

00:57:42.100 You're right.

00:57:42.400 I have issues.

00:57:43.600 And that's the extent of the allegation.

00:57:46.180 He didn't do it.

00:57:47.220 He didn't force her to do it after that.

00:57:48.800 He didn't do it.

00:57:49.600 And then they had that conversation.

00:57:51.060 Gosh, that's unbelievable.

00:57:51.760 He asked her to do this thing, which is obviously icky, right?

00:57:55.420 Yeah.

00:57:55.700 But I mean, again, he asked her to do this thing.

00:57:57.620 She said no, reminded him of his wife and child.

00:58:00.180 And so he said, ah, you're right.

00:58:01.300 I have issues.

00:58:02.440 I'm sorry.

00:58:03.620 Like that is, is that sexual assault?

00:58:05.900 What's even the accusation there?

00:58:07.640 No, that's not sexual assault.

00:58:09.520 Well, she answered, right?

00:58:11.300 And he did not pursue it after that.

00:58:12.840 It's unbelievable.

00:58:13.860 There's, you know, so he admitted to being a dirtbag, right?

00:58:17.960 And he admitted in such a general way that people kind of make it, well, he admitted to

00:58:23.300 these things and he did admit to, I've done a lot of things wrong and I've tried to figure

00:58:28.340 out a way to make them right.

00:58:30.220 And I think that what I just described to you is obviously wrong, right?

00:58:34.540 Like it's a wrong thing for him to be doing.

00:58:36.840 However, is it a crime?

00:58:37.820 Is it a crime?

00:58:38.240 I think the answer to that clearly is no.

00:58:40.640 And the, and the idea that, you know, Louis CK, because he's a famous comedian can affect

00:58:46.180 other people, other comedians careers is theoretically possible, but that, is that enough for a crime?

00:58:53.100 The fact that he wants to have, he wants to hook up with someone who theoretically he

00:58:57.640 could hurt their career if they say no, but there's not evidence that he did this to

00:59:02.920 anyone.

00:59:03.860 So it's a, or would even do it to anyone, right?

00:59:06.080 I mean, you know, again, you're just making a weird assumption.

00:59:08.240 There's a weird assumption there.

00:59:08.780 Yeah.

00:59:09.120 And we just assume the crime.

00:59:10.220 Like this is the sort of stuff that Minority Report was supposed to scare us away from,

00:59:13.900 right?

00:59:14.180 You're not supposed to just assume people will commit crimes in the future.

00:59:17.300 So he's on, listen to this.

00:59:18.560 This is the guy who runs the Comedy Cellar.

00:59:21.060 Now, Comedy Cellar is famous New York comedy club.

00:59:24.100 Like it's a tiny, it's like a hundred people can watch comedy there.

00:59:27.460 And there, the, the, if you go there, you'll see a lineup of comedians every day.

00:59:32.340 And, and, but it's famous for people, random people that are incredibly famous, just stopping

00:59:37.460 by.

00:59:37.700 You go in there to see some comedian you never heard of.

00:59:39.860 They're probably pretty good, but you got like a one in three chance.

00:59:42.300 Maybe Chris Rock walks in and does a set or Jerry Seinfeld comes in and walks his head

00:59:45.680 or Louis CK walks in and does a set.

00:59:47.600 Well, apparently this is the first place he went as he's tried to do this.

00:59:51.220 He's bounced around to several clubs around New York since, and they let him on stage.

00:59:55.200 So the New York times does an exhaustive report about trying to talk to the club owner, but

00:59:59.500 why you let him on stage.

01:00:02.000 This is a clip about how he's trying to determine the decision.

01:00:06.460 Listen, other people were just upset that he should ever work again.

01:00:11.980 But one guy said he's a comedian and I'm like, okay, when do you think he could come

01:00:16.960 work again?

01:00:17.360 He's like, never.

01:00:18.860 I'm like, never.

01:00:19.760 He says, never.

01:00:22.020 I said, well, could you imagine any court of law handing down such a sentence and never

01:00:27.600 work again?

01:00:28.700 He says, I don't care.

01:00:29.540 Never.

01:00:30.380 This is an admittedly provocative question, but I wonder as the owner of his place, what

01:00:34.140 you would say, particularly to a female customer who is here.

01:00:37.340 But, but, but, but, you know, I know when Bill Clinton, who was credibly obviously accused

01:00:41.800 in Juanita Broderick, I mean, I think nobody will expect a warning before he shows up somewhere.

01:00:47.700 Nobody.

01:00:48.140 Like, why were they cheering Roman Polanski as they were for years?

01:00:53.320 Why were they giving him standing ovation?

01:00:55.300 The director accused of sexually abusing a young.

01:00:57.900 Not accused, he did it.

01:00:59.180 But behind all these people you're mentioning, Roman Polanski, the film director, Bill Clinton,

01:01:03.920 the president, Louis C.K., the comedian, is someone who gives them a stage.

01:01:10.280 And in this case, that's you.

01:01:12.260 Right.

01:01:12.400 But I'm saying nobody cares that Mike Tyson, who raped or was convicted of raping somebody,

01:01:17.400 performs.

01:01:18.080 I guess you can only control the venue you control.

01:01:20.740 Yes.

01:01:21.020 But, but it's not unusual to expect some consistency in the world.

01:01:27.200 And when you see wildly inconsistent demands, if it's so obvious that the guy who masturbated

01:01:34.680 in front of women and exposed himself in women should never work again, he's, I mean, that's

01:01:42.740 amazing.

01:01:43.440 The irrational of, okay, but you let this guy on who did much less than they are.

01:01:52.140 And you shouldn't, you shouldn't have let this comedian perform on your stage.

01:01:56.780 Right.

01:01:57.020 And the fact that nobody cares about these other people, the same people, right, by the

01:02:01.940 way, who want him to shut out Louis C.K., didn't care about Clinton, didn't care about

01:02:08.140 any of these other circumstances, but he's supposed to.

01:02:12.340 Yeah.

01:02:12.580 And he, you know, I will say he was really smart about this.

01:02:17.240 Yeah.

01:02:17.480 I mean, he made some great points in this interview.

01:02:19.800 And the New York Times reporter was just constantly trying to say, well, yeah, but you did this

01:02:23.120 thing and you allowed it and trying to put it personally on him as to why he made the

01:02:26.860 decision, which is an interesting part of the story.

01:02:28.920 But I mean, he made the point as well of, look, what is the line?

01:02:34.400 We don't allow him, Louis C.K., to work.

01:02:36.680 So what does that mean?

01:02:37.440 Does he go on the government dole?

01:02:39.540 Or can he work at other jobs?

01:02:41.040 Can he work?

01:02:41.580 What if Louis C.K. got hired by Walmart?

01:02:43.580 Would that be okay?

01:02:45.520 And I think it's a fascinating question.

01:02:47.440 He would never support himself in life again.

01:02:51.080 Yeah.

01:02:51.100 And the idea that this guy has not been punished for this is insanity.

01:02:54.320 Yeah.

01:02:54.620 The man was making $10 million a year and he's probably now making, what was he making at

01:02:59.120 a comedy seller appearance?

01:03:00.280 $50?

01:03:01.160 Maybe $500?

01:03:02.500 I don't know.

01:03:03.120 Nothing?

01:03:04.080 I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if he just walks in and does it because he wants to do

01:03:07.460 it.

01:03:08.140 He has, you know, paid for this in a large way.

01:03:12.280 Um, and, you know, it's, it's certainly affected his career in a big way.

01:03:16.280 He's lost movies.

01:03:17.040 He's lost jobs.

01:03:18.300 But I mean, we saw this with Charlottesville.

01:03:20.160 There was a guy who...

01:03:21.660 And again, we're talking about a consensual act.

01:03:23.480 Yeah.

01:03:24.100 Yeah.

01:03:24.720 A consensual act.

01:03:25.160 Every time he actually did it, it was consensual.

01:03:27.960 It was consensual.

01:03:28.780 And there was one case in which, as we discussed, the woman said no.

01:03:32.760 Another case on the phone where we don't know what happened.

01:03:35.100 Another case where he started doing it and the woman left because she didn't want to be part

01:03:39.660 of it.

01:03:39.840 Well, good for her, right?

01:03:41.500 Yeah.

01:03:41.600 That's what she should do.

01:03:42.320 She should walk out and think he's a loser and tell every, all of her friends that he's

01:03:45.180 a loser.

01:03:45.680 Right.

01:03:46.020 But that does not mean that he should be losing jobs 10 or 15 years later.

01:03:50.160 Charlottesville is another great example of this.

01:03:52.300 Look, you saw the people, we played the video and the, and the audio of, uh, you know, Jews

01:03:57.060 will not replace us and, and all these crazy chants from the real dirt bags, uh, in, in

01:04:02.080 that Charlottesville carrying torches and, you know, the, the deepest, darkest corners

01:04:06.000 of the alt-right, right?

01:04:07.080 One of the guys who attended the rally and was in some of those videos, uh, was identified

01:04:14.260 as a man who worked at a hot dog stand in California.

01:04:19.760 He was fired from his job at the hot dog stand.

01:04:24.560 Now, how is this a good outcome for anyone?

01:04:27.220 Now, look, if he is saying to black customers, I won't serve you because you're black.

01:04:32.080 Obviously we get that, but if there's no indication that no indication that that ever happened, he

01:04:36.480 did his job seemingly right for everyone.

01:04:38.780 He was serving hot dogs and making hot dogs.

01:04:41.600 It was not like, you know, he was not in the high levels of finance here.

01:04:44.960 And so now we, we, we can all feel good about ourselves.

01:04:48.940 The power dynamic of a hot dog vendor though is such that, uh, it's too intimidating for

01:04:54.740 other people.

01:04:55.360 That's true.

01:04:55.880 So, so I guess now we can all feel good about ourselves for the fact that we are, instead

01:04:59.800 of him having a job at a hot dog stand, instead, we will support him with our tax dollars because

01:05:05.180 he's going to be at home and all these projects and programs that liberals have created over

01:05:09.420 the years to support people in need are going to go to this white supremacist who can no

01:05:15.460 longer hold down his job at a hot dog stand because we're too morally above him.

01:05:20.760 It's crazy.

01:05:22.020 I don't want to ever hang out with a guy who would go to that rally and carry a torch and

01:05:27.480 say, Jews will not replace us.

01:05:29.040 Never.

01:05:29.800 But I mean, do, do, what we do is we just find every one of these guys.

01:05:33.820 Do you want a Jew to replace you?

01:05:36.560 That's a question I've never considered.

01:05:38.060 Do you want that?

01:05:38.740 I would rather not be replaced by anyone, ideally, but I never have considered.

01:05:44.400 But does that include a Jew?

01:05:46.120 I guess, I guess.

01:05:47.000 I don't want a Jew to replace me or anyone else, but yeah, it does include that.

01:05:52.240 But I really don't want anyone.

01:05:54.200 It's just a weird thing we're dealing with because finding someone in a video and identifying

01:06:02.120 them online gives you this sort of rush of, I've outed this terrible person and I can punish

01:06:08.240 him.

01:06:08.420 Who are you really punishing?

01:06:09.680 I mean, are you certainly you're punishing the taxpayers of this area who now have to

01:06:14.680 support this loser who actually somehow was able to hold down a job selling hot dogs and

01:06:20.600 now has to sit inside probably playing Xbox while you're paying him to do it.

01:06:25.060 I mean, what a win.

01:06:27.380 Let's all celebrate that one.

01:06:29.560 It's I don't know.

01:06:30.740 It's a strange direction for us to be going in, is it not?

01:06:33.660 Yes.

01:06:34.560 Yes, it's nuts.

01:06:35.720 It's absolutely crazy.

01:06:37.580 So maybe the answer is they just can't be alive anymore.

01:06:42.760 I mean, it almost comes down to that because if they can't support themselves and certainly

01:06:47.520 the state, you don't want them supported by your tax dollars.

01:06:50.400 Right.

01:06:50.900 So I guess all people who are accused just starve to death now.

01:06:56.360 Yeah.

01:06:57.000 I guess that's what it comes down to.

01:06:59.120 I guess that's the way it works.

01:07:00.020 And it would be nice for us to find some consistency in this world.

01:07:03.440 It would.

01:07:03.840 You know, the fact that like, you know, if you were to say the Me Too movement, I bet to

01:07:07.500 most people, sure, you get Harvey Weinstein mentioned and you might get maybe Kevin Spacey

01:07:14.520 or one of the other two, you know, a few big stars.

01:07:16.800 But what you would almost definitely get is Donald Trump and Roy Moore and Brett Kavanaugh

01:07:23.620 and every conservative or anyone even supposedly leaning right that you can think of that was

01:07:28.560 accused.

01:07:29.220 Those have all had huge play in the media.

01:07:32.980 I mean, what's the percentage?

01:07:35.280 Ninety five percent have been on the left.

01:07:38.180 It's all been Hollywood and news media people.

01:07:40.660 And I mean, it's been almost everyone has been in those industries and those industries

01:07:45.760 obviously lean incredibly to the left.

01:07:48.360 So the idea that this is a right wing phenomenon, I mean, it just seems like people who are on

01:07:53.320 the right pay the price for it, where people on the left, you know, don't necessarily see

01:07:57.980 that the same way.

01:07:58.780 And, you know, I think you have to get to a point where someone like Louis C.K., who

01:08:04.980 was, I think, accused correctly of being a dirtbag, right, to his own admission, but

01:08:12.640 not, not any, nothing that was over this line of sexual assault, at least is not as reported.

01:08:20.900 You know, you have to look at these things as they stand.

01:08:24.860 I mean, Aziz Ansari is now doing shows again.

01:08:27.540 And he was, he was accused of something.

01:08:30.560 You know, what's his face from the New York Times?

01:08:32.640 He's back.

01:08:34.800 Glenn, what the heck is his name?

01:08:36.420 I don't want to get it wrong.

01:08:37.080 Thrush, right?

01:08:37.940 He was accused of harassing young interns and other underlings.

01:08:42.060 And he's back at work.

01:08:43.820 We have this weird, I mean, Mike Tyson, it's pretty clear.

01:08:46.740 The man was convicted of rape, not accused.

01:08:48.760 Convicted of rape, spent time in prison.

01:08:51.320 Yeah.

01:08:51.660 And he's like the darling of the media.

01:08:54.720 He comes on, he has silly appearances everywhere.

01:08:56.800 He doesn't seem to have a problem going anywhere or doing anything.

01:08:58.920 And he's, I mean, and look, he's served time and he's out, right?

01:09:01.300 Yeah.

01:09:02.320 And so you can make the case, as the left has made forever, that people who go in felons

01:09:07.640 should be able to come back and vote.

01:09:09.040 You should be, they have programs to give felons and convicted felons and murderers jobs.

01:09:14.100 Yeah.

01:09:14.500 But when someone's accused of something much less than murder, they can never work again.

01:09:18.300 And not even convicted, just accused.

01:09:20.320 Just accused.

01:09:20.880 Yeah.

01:09:21.240 It really doesn't make any sense.

01:09:22.700 888-727-BEC is the phone number.

01:09:25.980 It is Pat and Stu for Glenn, who is traversing currently the Mediterranean Sea in a canoe.

01:09:36.500 He's always wanted to do it.

01:09:38.040 And he finally said, you know what?

01:09:39.280 This is the week.

01:09:40.660 So.

01:09:41.280 And he's doing it alone.

01:09:42.940 Alone.

01:09:43.380 Which is amazing.

01:09:44.520 Which is amazing.

01:09:45.160 I don't know if there's a webcam.

01:09:46.220 I'd heard that there would be some, there would be a boat going next to him with a webcam

01:09:50.620 so you could see all the action.

01:09:52.300 But.

01:09:52.680 No, I think he attached the webcam to the canoe and it's just him.

01:09:56.300 It's just him.

01:09:57.020 Just him canoeing across the Mediterranean Sea.

01:09:59.560 Wow.

01:10:00.040 It must be a waterproof, it must be like a GoPro because it would have to be waterproof.

01:10:03.460 Yes.

01:10:03.880 It's a long, it's a long journey.

01:10:05.220 We think he's back Monday, but we're not entirely sure yet.

01:10:08.340 But when he's done with the Mediterranean Sea, he's going to canoe back.

01:10:11.360 So we're hoping he gets back by then.

01:10:13.660 He's going to have to get really fast with the canoe, but we'll get, we'll get into that

01:10:16.760 here in a little bit.

01:10:18.700 He's a good canoer.

01:10:19.880 He's quite the canoeist.

01:10:21.480 By the way, Glenn, another thing he did was tell me initially about American Financing.

01:10:31.220 American Financing is a great company who, they're able to not deal with all these commissions

01:10:36.680 and not be incentivized to give you bad loans.

01:10:39.260 They actually are, we've seen some slowdowns in the home sales, but not for first-time buyers.

01:10:45.500 First-time buyers are going crazy buying homes.

01:10:48.440 And to keep up with the first-time buyers entering the market, you need a reliable lender that

01:10:52.680 can process your loan fast.

01:10:54.020 American Financing can do that for you.

01:10:55.700 They offer dedicated mortgage consultants and in-house underwriting to secure financing

01:10:59.780 for your dream.

01:11:01.720 Really, it's the American dream to get your home.

01:11:04.060 And if you want to get it done fast, you need to act fast.

01:11:06.660 They've been around since 1999.

01:11:08.280 They've got all the great reviews on Better Business Bureau and Zillow and Google.

01:11:11.820 Give them a call today.

01:11:12.660 American Financing, 800-906-2440.

01:11:15.060 That's 800-906-2440 or online at AmericanFinancing.net.

01:11:18.920 That's AmericanFinancing.net.

01:11:20.940 American Financing Corporation, NMLS 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

01:11:29.800 It is Pat and Stu for Glenn today, 888-727-BECK.

01:11:36.500 We've got to show you just how loving and inclusive and diverse the left is.

01:11:41.620 We'll share another really good example of that, how they love everybody.

01:11:46.080 You know, and they're just, they're so kind and loving and accepting and tolerant.

01:11:50.880 That's the beauty of it, tolerant.

01:11:52.900 What happened to that word, by the way?

01:11:54.540 It's dead.

01:11:55.300 It's not a thing anymore.

01:11:56.440 You don't tolerate things.

01:11:57.000 You don't tolerate anything anymore.

01:11:59.520 If you don't believe exactly what they want you to believe, there's no tolerance.

01:12:04.720 There's a lot of people on the left who have dealt with that and that they've, they're

01:12:09.120 on 90% of the stuff, but you fall down on one issue to the progressive gods.

01:12:14.360 Look out.

01:12:15.060 Look out.

01:12:15.680 Yeah.

01:12:16.300 Give you some examples coming up on the Glenn Beck program.

01:12:21.760 Glenn Beck.

01:12:23.580 Pat and Stu for Glenn today, 888-727-BECK.

01:12:27.220 We have some great news about the wonderful, loving, and tolerant, inclusive left.

01:12:36.780 And, you know, just how great they're treating people right now.

01:12:41.760 For instance, there's a tracker for a liberal super PAC that was arrested Tuesday night in

01:12:47.060 Nevada for assaulting a female campaign manager for a Republican candidate for governor.

01:12:53.200 Grabbed her, twisted her arm behind her back, squeezed it, bruised her, jammed her upside

01:12:59.600 a door.

01:13:00.880 People had to pull him off of her.

01:13:03.760 Just a little disagreement there over, you know, their candidates.

01:13:07.860 And he was just expressing himself in a loving way.

01:13:12.020 Sounds like it.

01:13:13.000 Yeah.

01:13:13.360 And then there's the Minnesota Democratic Party has suspended a spokesman for calling

01:13:18.620 for violence against Republicans.

01:13:20.180 Republicans, even as two GOP candidates were assaulted in suspected politically motivated

01:13:26.840 attacks.

01:13:27.900 What were they wearing, though?

01:13:28.940 What was the GOP wearing?

01:13:30.500 Probably something that provoked the attack.

01:13:33.400 Yep.

01:13:34.300 Maybe a red hat.

01:13:35.560 Yeah.

01:13:36.300 One of the staffers also called for bringing Republicans to the guillotine.

01:13:41.820 I think Glenn talked about that this week.

01:13:44.860 You know, it's...

01:13:46.000 What do they do to deserve the guillotine, though?

01:13:47.660 It's probably their fault.

01:13:49.040 Well, it is.

01:13:49.720 It's their pro-life.

01:13:51.400 You can't have that.

01:13:52.580 Nope.

01:13:52.840 They want to take away a woman's right to choose.

01:13:56.580 Of course they need the guillotine.

01:14:00.320 Sean King, who is the white black guy, who is a Black Lives Matter activist, but a white

01:14:07.500 Black Lives Matter activist.

01:14:09.400 So he's a white guy that says he's black.

01:14:12.260 Yes.

01:14:14.020 But he's not black.

01:14:15.080 No, he's not black.

01:14:15.940 Okay.

01:14:16.080 I just want to make sure.

01:14:16.820 What you're saying is that he is...

01:14:19.080 He's saying that he's a black person, but he's actually a white person.

01:14:22.580 He's actually a white guy.

01:14:23.960 Yeah.

01:14:24.340 But he said, as I've said before, but I need to say it again, I'm grateful for Antifa.

01:14:31.500 It's weird that it's politically incorrect for me to say so.

01:14:34.800 Oh, so weird.

01:14:35.700 It's so weird because, you know, you should be able to love a violent group like that

01:14:40.360 who is, you know, rioting around the country.

01:14:43.420 It should be fine to say you love them.

01:14:45.660 He said, I'm glad that we have people in this country who stand up to fascism and bigotry

01:14:50.380 and are willing to confront hate face-to-face.

01:14:53.920 Thank you, Antifa.

01:14:55.780 So that's beautiful.

01:14:56.600 And then, you know, it spills over into people like Ted Cruz.

01:15:02.140 He and his wife, Heidi, of course, at the Washington, D.C. restaurant where people, the mob, got

01:15:07.800 in their face and started yelling and chanting at them.

01:15:10.460 And then he was just walking through an airport.

01:15:12.320 Do we have the video of Ted walking through the airport being heckled?

01:15:16.360 Here he is being approached by an angry woman in the airport.

01:15:19.840 And it was a victory for women in America.

01:15:21.600 You think they're putting a sexual assaulter on the court is a victory for women?

01:15:25.160 Thank you, sir.

01:15:25.820 God bless you.

01:15:26.300 So you believe in men assaulting women?

01:15:28.300 That's what your vote has today, sir.

01:15:29.980 I believe in due process.

01:15:31.400 You believe in due process?

01:15:32.840 Lots of women were out there talking about their stories.

01:15:35.580 Do you believe in a man lying about his alcohol in front of the Senate in forgery?

01:15:40.460 Do you believe in forgery?

01:15:41.980 Thank you for expressing your First Amendment rights.

01:15:44.920 So why do you support a man that abuses women?

01:15:48.640 Shame on you, Ted Cruz.

01:15:50.440 God bless you, ma'am.

01:15:51.360 Shame on you, Ted Cruz.

01:15:52.660 Shame on you, Ted Cruz.

01:15:54.000 Shame on you, Ted Cruz.

01:15:56.320 Shame on you, Ted Cruz.

01:15:58.420 Shame on you, Ted Cruz.

01:16:00.260 Shame on you, you psycho.

01:16:02.780 I'm so tired of it.

01:16:04.260 I can't.

01:16:05.020 It's hard.

01:16:05.760 I would not have handled that the way Ted Cruz did.

01:16:08.340 No, no.

01:16:09.060 That would have been...

01:16:09.520 Handled it beautifully.

01:16:10.520 Mm-hmm.

01:16:11.900 But...

01:16:12.500 Are you okay with a man lying about his alcohol consumption?

01:16:16.680 Well, do you...

01:16:18.100 How did he lie?

01:16:19.220 What did he lie about?

01:16:19.940 He said he drank to excess from time to time.

01:16:21.940 Yep.

01:16:22.860 What did he lie about?

01:16:23.760 The idea is that...

01:16:24.700 Well, other...

01:16:25.720 Because other people around him were like, well, I think he did black out.

01:16:29.260 How the hell do you know if he blacked out or not?

01:16:31.620 Only he would know that.

01:16:32.960 Right.

01:16:33.300 You know, maybe he did.

01:16:35.080 I don't see how that's all that...

01:16:37.920 There's no way to know that.

01:16:39.580 ...gervain to this conversation.

01:16:40.720 But still, there's no way to know it.

01:16:42.040 It's a ridiculous thing to complain about.

01:16:44.560 And, you know, this is one of the most annoying parts about this,

01:16:47.680 is the subtle accusation that everyone who supported Brett Kavanaugh

01:16:54.460 was a terrible person.

01:16:56.220 Like, even from people like you...

01:16:57.340 There are people on the left that you know, I'm sure.

01:16:59.240 I certainly know them.

01:17:00.840 And they were against Kavanaugh because they believed, you know, Dr. Ford.

01:17:05.940 Mm-hmm.

01:17:06.460 But the accusation there is similar to almost...

01:17:09.460 It's implicit, essentially, in everything that they're saying,

01:17:12.560 which is they accuse us of believing Ford in a roundabout sort of way.

01:17:20.060 They're accusing us of saying,

01:17:21.300 we know she was assaulted, and yet we still want him on the Supreme Court.

01:17:24.720 Right.

01:17:25.120 And, like, no.

01:17:25.820 Right.

01:17:26.000 What we're saying is, if we thought he was a sexual assaulter,

01:17:28.720 we wouldn't want him on the Supreme Court.

01:17:30.000 We just don't believe he is.

01:17:32.320 You have not provided any evidence to bring us over that line.

01:17:35.780 Right.

01:17:36.440 And just because you happen to believe it, with no evidence, by the way,

01:17:40.400 you happen to believe her is your prerogative.

01:17:43.860 But you can't...

01:17:44.560 Don't accuse me of thinking her story was credible.

01:17:49.160 I didn't.

01:17:50.060 I didn't think her story was credible.

01:17:52.080 I think...

01:17:52.680 I don't think it happened.

01:17:54.460 Yeah, I don't either.

01:17:55.520 If it happened, I think it happened with somebody else.

01:17:58.640 I mean, maybe.

01:17:59.380 But even that is a...

01:18:01.400 I don't think it happened at all, to be perfectly honest with you.

01:18:04.560 Now, of course, I can't prove that.

01:18:06.240 I wasn't there.

01:18:06.980 But when something like this happens, and it's the same thing that happens

01:18:11.060 with any big public official in this way,

01:18:15.600 if you have someone who doesn't report something

01:18:17.720 and doesn't even tell their friends for multiple decades,

01:18:20.500 then talks about a party that they couldn't remember where it was,

01:18:23.380 and then they tell you the people who were there

01:18:25.340 and they can't remember the party,

01:18:27.060 like, what are we...

01:18:29.140 And the person who's making the accusation has an overt dislike

01:18:33.920 for the party of the person that they're accusing.

01:18:39.440 It's a person who has been an activist,

01:18:41.680 has marched at women's march rallies,

01:18:43.700 is an obvious Democrat.

01:18:45.560 Like, you have to take in that motivation 40 years later into account.

01:18:50.800 I always start at skepticism.

01:18:52.620 I have this idea...

01:18:53.600 Basically, I think of people almost as like...

01:18:55.460 It's going to sound bizarre.

01:18:56.260 But I think of people almost like as innocent until they're proven guilty.

01:19:00.020 It's a weird way of thinking about it.

01:19:02.160 Yeah, I know.

01:19:02.860 I know.

01:19:03.300 I don't jump right to the guilt.

01:19:05.300 You don't believe the survivors?

01:19:08.000 No, no.

01:19:08.360 You don't believe survivors?

01:19:10.460 But if you're a survivor, that indicates that this event occurred.

01:19:14.460 Calling her a victim or a survivor indicates that you know the event occurred.

01:19:18.880 I would never call them a victim.

01:19:20.620 I call them survivors.

01:19:22.000 Yeah, but what did they survive?

01:19:24.620 They survived this assault by this man.

01:19:28.060 Yeah, but if the assault didn't happen, they didn't survive it, right?

01:19:31.280 You know, I guess we can all call ourselves survivors because we're all alive.

01:19:35.000 And we've technically survived everything that's happened to us in our entire life.

01:19:38.580 Yeah.

01:19:38.700 Look, I don't know what her motivation was.

01:19:40.580 I don't know.

01:19:41.340 It's possible.

01:19:42.540 A million things are possible.

01:19:44.180 What you said is possible.

01:19:45.400 It's possible it really happened.

01:19:46.680 And we're misjudging the evidence.

01:19:48.140 It's possible.

01:19:48.440 Why would she make it up?

01:19:49.860 Why would she lie about it?

01:19:51.100 That's a good question because I love this one.

01:19:53.580 What possibly could be your motivation to come up with an accusation like this?

01:19:59.740 I don't know.

01:20:01.200 Could it be political?

01:20:02.220 We talk about, yeah, I know.

01:20:04.840 We talk about the women's right to choose.

01:20:07.860 It is defended as if it is the life of a baby, not the ending of one.

01:20:13.820 I would defend my children's lives about as strongly as they defend their right to kill

01:20:20.580 their children.

01:20:21.520 It is the most important thing in the universe to how many millions of Americans?

01:20:27.920 The idea that you wouldn't do something to take out a guy who you think is going to overturn

01:20:33.640 that right that you think is so vital is insane.

01:20:36.760 We've seen far crazier things happen.

01:20:39.460 We saw an accusation last week where five, five accusers accused a high school student

01:20:45.760 of sexual assault because they, as they later admitted, didn't like him.

01:20:49.880 We have hoax allegations that have come through all the time.

01:20:56.100 People paint swastikas on their own garage.

01:20:59.340 They write, I don't like your lifestyle on receipts because they're trying to blame people

01:21:04.480 for being against being anti-gay.

01:21:07.100 This happens all the time.

01:21:09.240 You know why?

01:21:10.200 People are horrible.

01:21:12.480 Many of them are awful.

01:21:14.200 Their women are awful.

01:21:15.180 Men are awful.

01:21:15.900 They do terrible things that you can't explain.

01:21:18.220 It happens all the time and the idea that they wouldn't do that with this on the line.

01:21:22.400 People are writing swastikas on their door for nothing to like say, well, I was a victim

01:21:27.860 of anti-Semitism or I was a victim of white supremacists, not with the entire Supreme Court

01:21:33.320 on the line.

01:21:34.220 Of course you could find someone who's going to falsely accuse, which they did.

01:21:38.700 We know for a fact the fifth accuser recounted his allegations after he made them.

01:21:45.020 We know the fourth accuser didn't even bother to write any information on their letter, including

01:21:50.980 their name or where they lived or when it happened.

01:21:53.660 We know that the third accuser went to Michael Avenatti and no one, including Democrats,

01:21:58.580 believed them.

01:21:59.300 We know that false accusations were littered all over this story.

01:22:03.540 The only two they even seemed credible to even Democrats were the first two.

01:22:08.080 And in the second one, there's a giant asterisk there.

01:22:11.240 The person who made the allegation said, I was told by someone else.

01:22:16.720 So again, was not a witness.

01:22:17.940 I was told by someone else that something like this happened, but I couldn't locate them.

01:22:22.240 All right.

01:22:22.680 Well, I guess you could maybe take that seriously until the media did locate the person and

01:22:27.780 that person said, no, it didn't happen.

01:22:29.500 And she had to spend six days with her attorney to remember it even happened.

01:22:33.620 Exactly.

01:22:34.800 Exactly.

01:22:35.520 There was no corroborating evidence on that one either.

01:22:37.820 And look, the Ford one was only, I think, taken more seriously than the others because

01:22:43.560 there wasn't an obvious person saying, no, it didn't happen, right?

01:22:49.040 Like there were, and all the other ones, there were those people.

01:22:51.980 There just was no evidence proving that it happened here.

01:22:54.660 And of course, obviously, people like Kavanaugh and his witnesses were saying no.

01:22:59.420 Um, but that one was serious because she went and just, you know, took the step of going

01:23:04.520 in front of, uh, of the hearing and, and, and doing a relatively credible job at recounting

01:23:10.060 what she believed the story was.

01:23:11.640 Who knows if it was true or if it was completely false.

01:23:14.280 The idea that you can't pull one person out of the United States who opposes abortion so

01:23:18.540 much that they're going to make a credible accusation against someone where it's just

01:23:21.880 completely false.

01:23:22.680 It's just innate.

01:23:23.700 Yeah.

01:23:23.840 Of course you could do it.

01:23:24.900 Of course, I mean, as we heard with Hillary Clinton, she said there was a vast right-wing

01:23:29.900 conspiracy of people doing this.

01:23:32.220 Like if they, the, the media access, if it's this entirely foreign world where someone could

01:23:38.060 lie about politics, of course, of course it could happen.

01:23:43.900 And I think likely did at least in four of the five cases and probably in all of them.

01:23:48.200 And you brought up the high school situation in California where they call it the mean girls,

01:23:53.060 um, situation where the five girls accused this one 17 year old boy of sexual assault.

01:23:59.700 And they, they asked the first accuser, uh, why she would do this.

01:24:04.660 And she apparently told students that she would do anything to get this kid expelled from school.

01:24:10.500 Yeah.

01:24:10.740 And they did accusing him of sexual assault.

01:24:14.120 Uh, and then the second one said, I just don't like to hear him talk.

01:24:19.480 I don't like to look at him.

01:24:21.100 I just don't like him.

01:24:23.240 That's why they accused him.

01:24:24.840 It's incredible.

01:24:25.320 They just didn't like him.

01:24:26.600 It's really incredible.

01:24:27.480 Or how about the Ohio university student who, uh, got threatening notes about how they didn't

01:24:33.440 want, uh, her in her LGBT lifestyle to be in the student Senate anymore at Ohio university.

01:24:40.320 Uh, she was, uh, angry and frustrated and disappointed.

01:24:43.280 She said, um, uh, she, you may find my, me revolting and worthy of a threat of my life,

01:24:49.080 but in reality, it's your beliefs that are repulsive.

01:24:51.420 You need to get this through your head.

01:24:52.840 You effing a hole.

01:24:54.360 I am proud to be who I am and nothing could say or do or ever change that.

01:24:59.340 By the way, the decision of course admitted to sending the threats to herself.

01:25:04.120 Jeez.

01:25:04.740 Uh, or the woman.

01:25:05.920 And why would you do that?

01:25:07.380 Yeah.

01:25:07.780 Why would you, what could her motivation possibly be?

01:25:10.420 It's hard to detect in this case.

01:25:12.340 It's not hard to detect with Brett Kavanaugh or, uh, the, uh, woman in Texas who said a

01:25:17.340 state trooper sexually assaulted her until of course the cam footage came out and her

01:25:22.040 own attorney had to say, we're sorry for bringing this case.

01:25:25.120 We didn't know about this at the time or the charges against the four dentists accused

01:25:29.460 in Las Vegas of raping, uh, uh, people.

01:25:32.960 And that was also found to be completely false and untrue.

01:25:37.200 Or, uh, how about the racist receipt?

01:25:39.480 We don't tip a terrorist to an Arab, uh, person at a restaurant, um, who again, later on had

01:25:45.800 to admit that yes, he actually wrote the stuff on the receipt.

01:25:49.860 Wow.

01:25:50.540 Or the former college student who claimed a rape and then it had to admit in court that

01:25:54.740 it was completely false on Long Island.

01:25:58.440 Or a Kansas man who said he put racist graffiti on his own car.

01:26:03.040 Uh, or the racist note at St. Olaf college.

01:26:08.300 If you remember this one, uh, that was one where they talked about, uh, once again, the,

01:26:14.180 this terrible race racial note, everyone, apparently the racism is rampant all across F your white

01:26:20.240 complacency all over the place.

01:26:21.880 What we find out later, of course, not true.

01:26:24.600 We could go on and on and on and on with these stories.

01:26:27.140 They happen all the time.

01:26:28.260 How many times have you spray painted on your car?

01:26:30.700 Uh, go home, cracker.

01:26:32.920 Go back to Ireland, you cracker.

01:26:34.980 I, it's, I mean.

01:26:35.660 Well, it's a tough example.

01:26:36.480 For me, 112.

01:26:37.500 But I, you know, I think that's a, you know, it's very specific and you know, it's something

01:26:41.900 I like to do.

01:26:42.520 That's, that's an unfair question.

01:26:44.300 It's just fun.

01:26:45.600 It is a lot of fun.

01:26:46.420 It's just fun.

01:26:46.660 People ask why?

01:26:47.620 It's just fun.

01:26:48.860 I've got no enemies.

01:26:49.780 That's why.

01:26:50.300 I'm not even trying to frame anybody.

01:26:51.760 I just like to do it.

01:26:52.960 I like the way people look at me when I go through a drive-thru.

01:26:55.340 When they think that I've been called a cracker and told to go back to Ireland where I came

01:27:00.000 from.

01:27:00.260 Sometimes they'll, will they throw in a small extra fry?

01:27:02.760 Yes.

01:27:03.400 They feel bad for me.

01:27:04.680 I'm a victim.

01:27:05.800 I'm a survivor.

01:27:07.220 I'm a survivor.

01:27:08.820 And I, I believe you, Stu.

01:27:11.100 You do?

01:27:11.500 Automatically.

01:27:11.760 Because you're a survivor.

01:27:12.280 But I told you I didn't, it didn't happen.

01:27:13.940 I still believe you.

01:27:15.040 Okay.

01:27:15.420 Thank you.

01:27:16.480 Triple A's 727 Beck is the phone number.

01:27:20.860 President Trump has been warning to the risks of every American if the Republican lose one

01:27:24.820 or both houses of Congress this November.

01:27:26.920 We go through the numbers here all the time.

01:27:28.300 If you hear the daily segments or we go through the polls, you know, the House looks particularly

01:27:33.020 tough right now for Republicans.

01:27:35.000 You may be seeing some new Democratic governors.

01:27:38.240 All the progress that we've made with the economy, which has been really positive, has a

01:27:41.720 chance of going away.

01:27:42.400 You're not going to be able to pass new tax plans.

01:27:44.060 You're not going to be able to pass these regulation cuts, even if they only lose one

01:27:47.020 of the two houses.

01:27:49.460 And that's going to be a real, a real problem.

01:27:52.820 Goldline now has a must-read report on what we can expect if there is a Democratic victory.

01:27:56.980 And you can get this report for free just by calling them.

01:27:59.240 The report really gets in-depth on this and can show what the outcomes can be if things

01:28:05.040 go the wrong way.

01:28:06.520 Buy gold and silver as insurance against chaos.

01:28:08.840 Glenn has been talking about this for years.

01:28:10.660 We saw the stock market have a couple of really scary days the other day.

01:28:14.660 If this, you know, we are due.

01:28:17.620 We've gone a long time since the financial crisis happened.

01:28:21.540 Problems could be coming.

01:28:22.660 Gold jumped up when the stock market went into the toilet.

01:28:26.420 It could happen again.

01:28:27.220 You need to make sure this is right for you and your family, but call Goldline.

01:28:30.360 866-GOLDLINE is the number to call.

01:28:32.880 866-GOLDLINE.

01:28:33.860 Don't wait.

01:28:34.300 You need this information to be informed about what our future may hold.

01:28:37.240 Call now for your free report.

01:28:39.080 It's 866-GOLDLINE.

01:28:43.700 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.

01:28:47.480 Thank goodness police in Chicago leapt directly into action when they found a posting on Snapchat.

01:28:56.320 Somebody posted on Snapchat a photo.

01:29:02.820 I can barely say it.

01:29:04.100 I can barely get the words out.

01:29:05.800 Of a toy gun.

01:29:06.980 Oh my gosh.

01:29:07.860 On Snapchat.

01:29:08.700 Put it right up there.

01:29:09.880 He was holding it.

01:29:11.100 This kid.

01:29:12.240 18-year-old.

01:29:12.980 18-year-old kid holding a toy gun.

01:29:16.940 But fortunately, the Chicago police went right into action and found him almost immediately.

01:29:23.760 They located him and arrested him.

01:29:27.960 And put that to rest.

01:29:29.780 Arrested him for what was the charge that they arrested him for?

01:29:33.440 Genocide.

01:29:35.040 Genocide.

01:29:35.600 Genocide.

01:29:36.040 Or attempted genocide because he posted the photo of a toy gun.

01:29:40.440 And, you know, with that toy gun, who knows how many people.

01:29:43.760 I mean, he could have put an eye out.

01:29:45.260 I have a good idea of how many people.

01:29:46.820 Zero?

01:29:48.300 Yes, it's probably.

01:29:49.620 Yes, zero is right.

01:29:51.820 It's hard to kill people.

01:29:52.940 They actually arrested him for disturbing the peace.

01:29:55.160 The photo of the airsoft, it was an airsoft gun, was disturbing the peace.

01:30:03.700 I mean, that's amazing, isn't it?

01:30:05.260 That's also, I mean, that cannot hold up.

01:30:07.560 I wouldn't.

01:30:08.540 That cannot hold up.

01:30:09.260 I wouldn't think so.

01:30:09.900 But the community is applauding the police swift success.

01:30:14.260 The swift success in locating and arresting him is due to the timely information provided

01:30:19.260 by numerous concerned teens and adults, as well as the cooperation of the Park Ridge Police

01:30:26.180 Department and the Cook County Sheriff's Police.

01:30:28.840 Is this?

01:30:29.420 It was a multi-department operation to get this kid.

01:30:35.700 Wait, does this story come around, though?

01:30:37.060 Do we hear at the end, by the way, they found out it was an airsoft gun and now he's been

01:30:40.560 released?

01:30:41.200 No.

01:30:41.700 This story?

01:30:42.640 No.

01:30:43.460 Uh-uh.

01:30:43.980 Because, I mean, let's just say you had a realistic-looking airsoft gun, okay?

01:30:49.260 That maybe lost its little orange.

01:30:51.200 I assume they all have the orange thing on the end that shows that they're fake, right?

01:30:54.060 But let's just say that fell off or something, right?

01:30:56.060 Okay, or he painted it black.

01:30:57.480 Right, let's just say.

01:30:58.460 And he's walking down the street, or he's walking towards a school.

01:31:01.120 I can understand someone passing by and be like, uh, what the hell's going on?

01:31:04.820 Sure.

01:31:05.040 And calling the police.

01:31:05.860 Yeah.

01:31:06.020 And what happens is they show up and they talk to him and they realize, oh, it's an airsoft

01:31:09.560 gun.

01:31:09.580 It's an airsoft gun.

01:31:10.280 All right, see you later.

01:31:10.820 Hey, you gotta get that thing, you gotta get the orange piece or people are gonna freak out.

01:31:13.520 And then you release him.

01:31:14.820 Right.

01:31:15.180 Let's say the maximum penalty would be, look, we're gonna take the gun.

01:31:18.700 We'll return it to you later.

01:31:19.740 Instead, they found the airsoft gun in his truck and arrested him for disturbing the

01:31:25.500 piece.

01:31:25.660 Did they realize it was an airsoft gun?

01:31:27.100 Yeah, they knew it was an airsoft gun.

01:31:28.780 They said it was an airsoft gun.

01:31:30.500 And they're still being congratulated for their swift success.

01:31:34.180 In locating him.

01:31:36.920 I don't know.

01:31:38.040 I don't know.

01:31:39.040 What are you gonna do with an airsoft gun?

01:31:40.260 I mean, if you shot somebody in the eye.

01:31:42.220 Yeah, you're supposed to wear goggles, right?

01:31:43.500 When you're wearing, when you're playing that.

01:31:44.700 It would hurt.

01:31:45.920 You might put an eye out.

01:31:47.220 My mom warned me about that when I was a kid.

01:31:51.600 But other than that, I don't know what you're gonna do with the airsoft gun.

01:31:56.580 That's so dangerous that they had to arrest the kid.

01:31:59.140 When they found out, it's an airsoft gun.

01:32:00.900 But he wasn't even walking down the street.

01:32:02.800 No, he posted a photo.

01:32:04.660 He didn't threaten anybody.

01:32:06.540 Didn't say, I'm gonna use this at school.

01:32:09.220 None of that.

01:32:10.160 Very bizarre.

01:32:10.680 It's more unbelievable.

01:32:14.820 Pat Gray, Stupor Gear.

01:32:16.740 I'm joined by Jeff Fisher.

01:32:19.360 Some would call him Jeffy.

01:32:21.840 Others call him Fatso.

01:32:23.520 But that's wrong.

01:32:24.880 We don't like that.

01:32:25.880 We don't like that.

01:32:27.600 We chastise people who call him that.

01:32:29.340 Do you?

01:32:29.720 We do.

01:32:30.660 Severely.

01:32:31.100 Do you?

01:32:31.960 We sure do.

01:32:33.460 We sure do.

01:32:34.360 I'm trying to remember when that happened.

01:32:36.680 Well, a lot behind your back.

01:32:38.440 Because we don't like people to call you.

01:32:40.720 Fatso to your face.

01:32:41.920 And so we chastise them when they do it behind your back.

01:32:45.340 And that's a great point, Pat.

01:32:46.160 We should just, before we get into this conversation, we should point out the name of the segment,

01:32:49.840 of course, Chewing the Fat with Jeffy.

01:32:52.720 Right.

01:32:53.660 But that just means it's a conversation, you know.

01:32:56.740 Oh, yeah.

01:32:57.020 That's also, I believe, the fastest growing podcast in America right now.

01:32:59.880 Yes.

01:33:00.420 Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher.

01:33:02.340 Is it really?

01:33:03.120 Yes.

01:33:03.300 I mean, I'm calling it that.

01:33:05.160 Okay.

01:33:05.500 Right.

01:33:05.620 All right.

01:33:06.060 We don't have scientific measures on that.

01:33:07.440 But I know the numbers are really good.

01:33:08.960 Lots of new subscribers.

01:33:10.680 Yeah, it's going good.

01:33:11.560 It feels good.

01:33:12.140 Yeah, I'm real happy about it.

01:33:12.980 It's fun.

01:33:13.340 Monday through Friday, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher.

01:33:15.840 Okay.

01:33:16.520 4 p.m. Central, 5 p.m. Eastern.

01:33:18.880 That's when you post it?

01:33:19.020 You can take it home.

01:33:19.780 Up every day.

01:33:20.560 Good to go.

01:33:20.940 You can also listen to Pat Gray Unleashed between 7 and 9 Eastern Time, 6 and 8 Central.

01:33:30.000 Live.

01:33:30.800 Live.

01:33:31.460 Every day.

01:33:32.220 And then that's posted by about 8.30 in the morning.

01:33:34.660 Oh, so you've got plenty of time to listen to you and then me.

01:33:37.060 No problem.

01:33:37.740 I mean, you could also listen to the radio show that we're on as well.

01:33:40.040 You could also listen to the radio show.

01:33:41.800 You have all these options.

01:33:42.640 Which is podcasted as well.

01:33:44.220 Yep.

01:33:44.560 Right?

01:33:44.920 Lots of good options.

01:33:45.820 Posted every day.

01:33:46.320 And then according, as long as we're just promoing the heck out of everything, don't

01:33:49.700 forget, on Pat Gray Unleashed, more on trivia is back.

01:33:52.820 Oh, right.

01:33:53.740 And tomorrow will be the first time in a long time we've done it in the morning.

01:33:57.340 But we're five wins, one loss.

01:33:59.120 Yeah.

01:33:59.380 I mean, it's been a great season so far.

01:34:01.040 Right.

01:34:01.320 Looking good.

01:34:02.140 So, very cool.

01:34:03.340 Check that out tomorrow.

01:34:03.940 We've had some very intelligent contestants.

01:34:09.580 As always.

01:34:10.080 As always.

01:34:10.620 As always.

01:34:11.420 It's going to be even worse in the morning.

01:34:13.060 People without any of that coffee and they're going to be trying to answer these questions.

01:34:16.860 It's going to be hard to get them on the line, though.

01:34:18.380 More on trivia in the morning is difficult.

01:34:19.740 That's the problem.

01:34:19.760 In the morning.

01:34:20.380 Yeah.

01:34:20.620 It's going to be hard.

01:34:21.820 So, Jeffy, what do you have for us today?

01:34:23.280 Well, I just want to, this is the last couple days of me working, and I'm sure you're happy

01:34:26.800 about that, but, you know, I'm going to, you know, the lotto, the Powerball.

01:34:30.760 Oh, you're going to win it this time?

01:34:32.160 $900 million.

01:34:32.640 You're going to win it every time, though, you say.

01:34:35.060 $900 million.

01:34:36.200 $900 million?

01:34:37.200 Wow.

01:34:37.300 For Friday's drawing.

01:34:38.760 For which one is this?

01:34:39.540 Is this Mega Millions?

01:34:40.100 That's Mega, yeah.

01:34:40.840 This is Mega, yeah, for Friday's drawing.

01:34:42.560 The other one wasn't one either.

01:34:43.820 Powerball, they didn't win.

01:34:44.720 No, they didn't.

01:34:45.500 And on Saturday, that's $430 million.

01:34:48.640 Well, that's not even worth playing.

01:34:51.280 It just bumps you into a different tax bracket.

01:34:53.160 That's not even worth doing.

01:34:54.320 Are you going to bother to enter either one of these?

01:34:57.440 Yes.

01:34:58.000 Yes?

01:34:58.460 Oh, my gosh, yes.

01:34:59.840 Do you have a strategy?

01:35:00.820 Once we lose hope, Stu, and then the country's gone.

01:35:04.860 Without hope from the lottery, the country is done.

01:35:06.540 If you don't play the lottery, the terrorists win.

01:35:09.340 Yes, thank you.

01:35:10.220 Yeah.

01:35:10.700 Yeah.

01:35:11.180 That's a fact.

01:35:11.760 Now, the cash payout, though, from Mega, $513 million, that's not bad.

01:35:16.280 Well, but I hate this, though.

01:35:17.680 This is like NFL contracts.

01:35:19.000 They're like, he's just signed a 10-year, $900 billion contract.

01:35:22.460 $100,000 is guaranteed.

01:35:24.180 It's like, well, why don't you just tell me what the contract is?

01:35:26.980 The same thing here.

01:35:27.660 Like, if the payout is $513 million, then the lottery is $513 million.

01:35:32.900 It's not $900 billion.

01:35:33.840 Well, you don't have to get the payout.

01:35:35.180 Yeah, you don't have to get the payouts, Stu.

01:35:36.560 I mean, you're stupid if you don't get the payout, because that money's not going to

01:35:42.900 be there.

01:35:43.020 No, it is not.

01:35:43.560 I guarantee that money won't be there.

01:35:45.860 What is the actual, if you were to take the annual, what would you get?

01:35:48.460 Do you know?

01:35:49.500 No, I don't.

01:35:50.920 Because, again, like Pat said, if you were to do that, you'd be dumb.

01:35:54.400 Yeah, you've got to get it in the bank.

01:35:55.740 You've got to take all of it that you can.

01:35:58.780 I mean, there's an argument for, let's say, a Jeffy, who may not be as fiscally responsible

01:36:05.000 There is that argument, yes.

01:36:06.260 Out of others, that at least, hey, there's a check coming in for the next 30 years.

01:36:09.140 At least you'll know you'll live the next 30 years.

01:36:11.360 But, well, not, you know, I mean, you can't guarantee your health.

01:36:14.920 So, Jeffy very well may die of multiple ailments and diseases that he holds.

01:36:19.400 But, still, at least there'd be money coming in.

01:36:21.840 There is that argument, but the worst argument, I think, in today's world is that that money's

01:36:26.320 not going to be there.

01:36:27.700 There's a good chance.

01:36:28.180 You know, there's already some lotteries that are, there was some in Indiana for a while that

01:36:32.600 were saying, you know what, we're not going to pay you, but no, we can't pay you right

01:36:35.240 now.

01:36:36.060 And we've already started hearing, you know, we're, I think it was Indiana.

01:36:40.120 It was either Indiana or Illinois that said, you know, we're not going to pay you right

01:36:44.340 now.

01:36:44.700 Yeah.

01:36:45.380 So, if you take the 513 up front, and after taxes, that would be what?

01:36:51.840 $350, $380, something like that.

01:36:54.780 That's a lot of money.

01:36:56.160 That's, you get $380, and you bank that, you're set forever, and so are generations of your

01:37:01.940 family if you're not a moron.

01:37:03.540 If you're a moron, it'll be gone by next week.

01:37:06.180 But, if you're not a moron, that will last you for generations of, of...

01:37:12.340 Yeah, that's a family fortune.

01:37:13.520 That's forever.

01:37:14.060 That can continue to grow.

01:37:15.020 Yeah, it should be forever.

01:37:16.080 Your great-great-grandfather won the lottery.

01:37:18.080 That's why I'm not doing anything.

01:37:20.020 I mean, that's not bad.

01:37:21.520 Yeah.

01:37:22.200 And if you win both, ooh, now you're talking.

01:37:26.260 Now you're talking about life.

01:37:29.900 Because your life with 513 million would not be that great, but if you could add on a couple

01:37:33.880 hundred million on top of that, that's when you start to feel it.

01:37:36.980 Now you'd be okay.

01:37:37.960 Now you can take some vacations.

01:37:39.700 Now you're okay.

01:37:40.620 Then you're like, you know, I'm going to give 30% when I go out to a restaurant.

01:37:43.760 That's when that starts happening.

01:37:45.100 It's that time.

01:37:45.980 When you get to like 900, you know, 950, you just splurge.

01:37:48.520 Speaking of that, is it time to stop that?

01:37:51.240 The waiters expecting tips?

01:37:55.040 Is it time to stop that?

01:37:56.100 Yeah, maybe the restaurants pay the waiters a decent wage, and then I don't have to worry

01:37:59.880 about paying that tip.

01:38:00.940 Unless they do an outstanding job.

01:38:03.440 Because now they expect it.

01:38:05.040 They expect me to pay them the tip.

01:38:06.240 Part of their salary.

01:38:06.920 Yeah, they expect it.

01:38:09.220 I had a very high level job as a Chili's waiter for a couple of years, and the minimum wage

01:38:17.180 at the time, I believe, was $4.27 an hour.

01:38:19.520 And you got for what, two?

01:38:20.380 And I got $2.12 an hour.

01:38:21.380 I remember getting $2.12 an hour.

01:38:23.280 It was my hourly fee.

01:38:24.600 $2.12.

01:38:25.200 Wow.

01:38:25.440 Now, of course, the reason is because you're getting tips, and you're going well over the

01:38:29.660 minimum wage, right?

01:38:30.840 And did you?

01:38:31.460 And you did, of course.

01:38:32.360 I mean, it was not hard to get $2 an hour in tips, even for me, and I was a crappy waiter.

01:38:38.240 But $2.12 an hour, the check would come in, after two weeks, it would be like $60.

01:38:45.820 We wouldn't even cash it.

01:38:47.460 It's not even worth it.

01:38:48.520 Yeah, it was almost like you felt dumb.

01:38:50.500 You might probably spend $60 on gas getting to the bank.

01:38:54.260 Seriously, yeah.

01:38:54.840 Yeah, that's ridiculous.

01:38:55.980 It is.

01:38:56.500 It's kind of bad.

01:38:57.300 You know, there's also, for you, Stu, I was thinking of you while I was reading this

01:39:01.360 new study on the burger chains having failing grades with their antibiotic use in their

01:39:07.120 meat.

01:39:07.980 I know.

01:39:09.000 I know.

01:39:09.800 25 burger chains reveal a very different pattern.

01:39:13.240 Now, there's a new study, the Chain Reaction Burger Edition.

01:39:16.660 And if you thought it was going to be slanted, no.

01:39:19.860 It's produced by Consumer Reports, along with the Center for Food Safety, Friends of the Earth,

01:39:25.160 the Food Animal Concerns Trust, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the U.S. Public

01:39:31.380 Interest Research Group.

01:39:33.040 Yes.

01:39:33.620 Yes.

01:39:34.060 Those are some of my favorite agencies.

01:39:35.660 Thank you.

01:39:36.300 Friends of the Earth and the Resource Defense Council.

01:39:40.120 Those are two.

01:39:41.020 I mean, you want to talk about awful environmental organizations.

01:39:45.060 Those are at the top of the list.

01:39:46.520 But high use of antibiotics in the beef industry is terrible.

01:39:50.300 It's killing people.

01:39:51.020 It's killing people.

01:39:51.820 Terrible.

01:39:52.220 Right?

01:39:52.620 It's killing us.

01:39:53.220 So there's only two restaurants that, you know, fast food chains that got A's in their

01:39:59.000 beef that they don't use any beef with antibiotics.

01:40:01.940 BurgerFi, which I've never been to.

01:40:03.540 Never heard of that.

01:40:04.160 And Shake Shack.

01:40:05.440 Oh, really?

01:40:06.020 Ah, Shake Shack.

01:40:06.600 Right?

01:40:07.220 I know.

01:40:07.640 I love Shake Shack, man.

01:40:08.940 Oh, that, yeah.

01:40:10.320 I want to go to Shake Shack.

01:40:11.740 Let's go to Shake Shack.

01:40:12.260 Let's go right now.

01:40:13.260 Let's leave.

01:40:13.760 Yes.

01:40:14.240 Let's just leave right now and go.

01:40:16.060 I just kind of want to put the microphone down and walk out of the studio and go to Shake

01:40:21.380 Shack.

01:40:21.820 It's so good.

01:40:22.620 All the other fast food restaurants failed, except for Wendy's, who got a D minus, because

01:40:27.840 they have now committed to sourcing a small percentage of beef from producers who minimize.

01:40:35.920 They don't eliminate, but producers who minimize the use of medically important antibiotics.

01:40:40.740 So once in a while, you're going to get a burger that doesn't have any antibiotics.

01:40:44.020 And what is, what is the antibiotic in the burger doing to us?

01:40:48.400 Is it, is it, it's making us, their claim, their claim is that it's making us resistant

01:40:52.580 to the antibiotic chains, right?

01:40:54.460 The hardcore left-wing environmentalist groups are saying there's bad things in there.

01:40:58.040 Right.

01:40:58.460 Which I, that means absolutely nothing to me.

01:41:00.860 I'm guessing there's worse things than antibiotics in there.

01:41:04.560 Like, you know, cow poop and that kind of stuff that gets mixed in.

01:41:07.660 Oh, yeah.

01:41:08.280 They just had a report like this on.

01:41:09.720 Seriously, because some of this stuff is not done really well.

01:41:12.740 Yeah.

01:41:12.900 Did you see this report on LaCroix water that came out?

01:41:15.580 I think it was this week.

01:41:16.620 No, yes.

01:41:17.280 You know, LaCroix water.

01:41:17.520 It's like a sparkling, like.

01:41:19.000 Oh, yeah.

01:41:19.740 I want to say it's fruit flavored, but it's not.

01:41:21.440 If you've ever had a drink of it, like, you could be like, wait, what is that?

01:41:24.420 Oh, I can taste a tad bit of lime.

01:41:26.540 It's like not, it's not flavored like anything.

01:41:28.340 It's not good, in my opinion.

01:41:30.060 I'm not, I'm not a fan.

01:41:30.960 But they tried to come out the same thing.

01:41:32.400 Like, oh, well, there's an ingredient here that's included in this terrible thing.

01:41:36.400 And you go through it, of course, of course, at the end of the day, there's absolutely nothing to the report.

01:41:43.100 Because that is what, you know, medical journalism has come to.

01:41:46.020 It's especially about food.

01:41:47.940 They just try to say, like, well, this ingredient is included in some other thing that sounds scary.

01:41:54.540 Of course, you don't eat nearly enough to come close to any problematic area.

01:42:01.500 Like, we are constantly, you know, we can't.

01:42:03.580 I mean, some of us.

01:42:05.340 I shouldn't say that with Jeffy in the room.

01:42:07.100 That's a good point, Jeffy.

01:42:08.360 Some of us need to be concerned.

01:42:09.860 Yeah.

01:42:10.920 If you're eating as much as nine horses would eat, well, okay.

01:42:14.700 You know, Jeffy falls into that category.

01:42:16.640 But, I mean, it's just, we get so scared about these things, and 99% of it is nothing.

01:42:22.000 Like, you can go, and you can have all the things that they say you can never touch, you can have, as long as you don't go crazy with them.

01:42:28.580 As long as you're not constantly eating them all the time, you're going to be okay.

01:42:32.340 And, honestly, most of the stuff, even if you are eating it all the time, you're probably going to be okay.

01:42:37.980 I mean, we're pretty resilient creatures here.

01:42:40.040 I mean, this is from a guy who's, in the past, drank Roundup.

01:42:45.420 Yeah.

01:42:45.860 So, you know.

01:42:46.900 Oh, yeah.

01:42:47.380 Right.

01:42:47.740 Exactly a commercial from my viewpoint.

01:42:49.280 But, yes, I have had a couple sips of Roundup here and there to prove that that, as well, has no.

01:42:54.880 It didn't kill you.

01:42:55.380 I am still alive.

01:42:56.040 And you're still on this planet.

01:42:57.180 I am still alive.

01:42:58.000 Now, they're making headway with the chicken company, with the companies that are using chickens.

01:43:02.480 Because you've got Chipotle, Panera, and Chick-fil-A, number one.

01:43:05.580 They use chickens without antibiotics.

01:43:07.740 Did you just use the Al Sharpton pronunciation of Chipotle?

01:43:10.200 He did.

01:43:10.680 Chipotle?

01:43:11.200 Chipotle.

01:43:11.520 Yeah, he did.

01:43:12.500 You've just accepted that that's the way it's pronounced now.

01:43:14.440 I don't call it anything else.

01:43:15.480 I can't.

01:43:15.900 I don't.

01:43:16.720 Seriously, I don't.

01:43:17.340 Really?

01:43:17.640 I can't see it on the sign.

01:43:19.560 I can't read.

01:43:20.120 It's Chipotle.

01:43:20.860 It's Chipotle.

01:43:21.900 Has anybody said that?

01:43:22.760 Yeah, Chipotle.

01:43:23.400 Was it Mitt Romney went to a Chipotle?

01:43:25.100 Went to a Chipotle.

01:43:26.400 Went to a Chipotle.

01:43:27.640 Because that was that whole montage where Sharpton can't read the teleprompter?

01:43:31.580 I can't call it anything else but that now.

01:43:33.720 I'm sorry.

01:43:34.240 I respect you.

01:43:34.760 That's the name.

01:43:35.780 Okay.

01:43:36.400 But it's good that, you know, Subway and Taco Bell, they're all trying to play along with their chicken.

01:43:41.120 You know, they're using chickens with less antibiotics or zero antibiotics.

01:43:45.880 So we're good there.

01:43:47.220 But my favorite story is, we talked a little bit about this on Pat's show a week or so ago,

01:43:52.400 the gluten-free dishes that are at restaurants now that everybody, so, well, there's, everybody

01:43:59.180 has to be gluten-free now.

01:44:00.980 Yeah.

01:44:01.380 Which is ridiculous.

01:44:02.600 Everybody is gluten intolerant.

01:44:03.400 Nobody, if you're a celiac or whatever that is, that's one thing.

01:44:08.400 Okay.

01:44:08.540 If you have the celiac disease, you probably shouldn't have gluten.

01:44:11.520 And look, and there's, there's very few people have that.

01:44:14.820 How dare you?

01:44:15.980 I know.

01:44:16.460 How dare you, Pat Gray?

01:44:17.840 I know.

01:44:18.340 There's approximately 1% of the U.S. population with that disease, okay?

01:44:23.680 Whoa.

01:44:24.080 Why then are 83% of people avoiding gluten?

01:44:29.660 Why?

01:44:29.840 I was thinking of that.

01:44:31.420 There's a weird, like, this happens with a lot of these issues where, like, people are

01:44:35.720 mad at you for accusing them of not having celiac disease.

01:44:39.700 I was like, well, I think that's a great thing.

01:44:43.120 You don't want celiac disease.

01:44:44.540 You don't want the disease.

01:44:44.600 It includes my daughter because for a while she was on that kick.

01:44:47.440 Oh, yeah.

01:44:47.780 I'm like, oof.

01:44:49.020 You don't have celiac disease!

01:44:51.740 You are not allergic to gluten!

01:44:54.560 Stop it!

01:44:56.360 It's the same thing with the Kavanaugh hearings.

01:44:58.300 Like, all these people come out and they're accusing Kavanaugh and they're like, how dare you

01:45:01.120 not believe them?

01:45:01.740 And they're fighting.

01:45:02.520 Like, wouldn't our thing be better if it was true?

01:45:04.820 Wouldn't it be great if these women weren't assaulted?

01:45:07.840 Like, wouldn't it be great if global warming wasn't killing us?

01:45:10.520 Like, maybe we should at least consider these things and not get defensive of doom.

01:45:14.680 Right.

01:45:14.980 Like, they're defending, like, I know, you must believe that we're all going to die in

01:45:19.300 10 years.

01:45:19.720 You must!

01:45:20.800 Like, I'd rather look at the facts and try to decipher it, but there is that passion.

01:45:26.300 People really hate it if you tell them they do.

01:45:28.360 Yes, they do.

01:45:29.540 And the good news is, wouldn't you?

01:45:30.100 You're going to live.

01:45:31.400 No, I'm not!

01:45:33.380 Damn you!

01:45:34.820 The good news is when you order the gluten-free at the restaurants, odds are it's not.

01:45:40.240 It's not gluten-free?

01:45:41.420 Not gluten-free?

01:45:42.160 At least a third.

01:45:43.540 Is that true?

01:45:44.080 At least a third.

01:45:44.980 They did studies and went to the restaurants, and at least a third is not gluten-free.

01:45:49.140 That shows how much nonsense this is, right?

01:45:51.540 It does.

01:45:51.840 I mean, if it were real and people were really having these allergies...

01:45:55.020 It'd be lawsuits.

01:45:56.100 Yeah, huge ones.

01:45:57.200 Yeah, I mean, they'd be breaking out.

01:45:58.820 You know, they'd have the...

01:45:59.660 Oh, they'd be worse than breaking out.

01:46:00.940 If you really have it, I mean, you can not breathe and, you know...

01:46:04.620 Yeah, it's a serious thing for the people who have it.

01:46:06.900 Yeah.

01:46:06.940 I mean, it's just that for whatever reason, everyone wants to lump themselves in this new

01:46:09.980 victim status.

01:46:10.880 I can't eat gluten.

01:46:13.840 888-727-PECK.

01:46:16.060 Glenn, back.

01:46:20.620 With Pat, Stu, Jeffy.

01:46:23.740 You got some news about an unfortunate event that happened?

01:46:26.860 Well, I'm still in mourning.

01:46:27.960 I mean, we discussed a little bit about the mourning process yesterday on Chewing the Fat

01:46:32.740 with Jeff Fisher, my podcast, and Dennis Hoff passed away, and it's been sad.

01:46:37.580 It's been a sad day.

01:46:38.400 Who's Dennis Hoff?

01:46:40.700 Who's Dennis Hoff?

01:46:42.040 Mm-hmm.

01:46:42.500 The pimp of Nevada?

01:46:44.580 The pimp?

01:46:45.120 The pimp of Nevada.

01:46:46.060 Oh, of course.

01:46:46.960 Okay.

01:46:47.260 The Love Ranch.

01:46:47.380 Because there's that one.

01:46:48.380 There's only one in Nevada.

01:46:49.740 That's it.

01:46:50.340 The Love Ranch.

01:46:51.460 I mean, all of it.

01:46:52.660 Most famous.

01:46:53.600 Yeah.

01:46:54.140 Is it the Bunny Ranch?

01:46:55.000 The house.

01:46:55.680 HBO Cat House series.

01:46:57.140 I mean, that's all Dennis.

01:46:58.160 That aired for 12 seasons, by the way.

01:47:00.040 Right.

01:47:00.320 Cat House on HBO.

01:47:02.740 What?

01:47:03.100 12 seasons.

01:47:04.100 It was a big show.

01:47:05.360 So there's a show on HBO based on his business dealings.

01:47:12.800 Wow.

01:47:13.160 I would say.
