00:00:00.000 This winter, take a trip to Tampa on Porter Airlines.
00:00:05.400 Enjoy the warm Tampa Bay temperatures and warm Porter hospitality on your way there.
00:00:11.360 All Porter fares include beer, wine, and snacks, and free, fast-streaming Wi-Fi on planes with no middle seats.
00:00:18.780 And your Tampa Bay vacation includes good times, relaxation, and great Gulf Coast weather.
00:00:25.160 Visit flyporter.com and actually enjoy economy.
00:00:30.000 I want to talk to you about a new sponsor to the program.
00:00:33.600 It's UpPhone.
00:00:35.080 UpPhone.
00:00:35.640 This is the one that just frustrates the hell out of big tech companies because you will not give them any information.
00:00:43.520 Your privacy is a constitutional right, and that means that all the information that you're carrying around on that computer in your pocket, it doesn't belong to anybody else.
00:00:51.680 It doesn't belong to businesses.
00:00:52.940 It doesn't belong to the government.
00:00:54.000 It belongs to you.
00:00:55.880 The UpPhone is built like a digital fortress, and it doesn't exist in either the Apple or Google ecosystems.
00:01:02.140 It comes with its own operating system, an app store, its own messenger, which you can use to make end-to-end encrypted calls and video calls.
00:01:09.080 You can send files and photos, even create secure chat groups.
00:01:12.700 It has a VPN and an antivirus.
00:01:14.720 You've been monitored, surveilled, and digitally exploited by big tech for far too long.
00:01:21.520 It stops with the UpPhone.

00:01:38.040 A lot to talk about on today's program.
00:01:40.540 We begin in just a minute.
00:01:41.320 We'll be right back.
00:02:11.320 We'll be right back.
00:02:41.300 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:48.080 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:51.160 I want to play something which is, I believe, the most amazing six minutes I have ever heard any president or president-elect say.
00:03:05.780 Six minutes of just, I mean, what was that movie?
00:03:11.420 It was at the Untouchables where Al Capone was like, I want him dead.
00:03:15.880 I want his family dead.
00:03:17.600 I want his house burned to the ground and I'm going to pee on all of his ashes.
00:03:21.560 Remember that?
00:03:22.120 This is going to set a few people off who are very powerful in America and I loved every second of it.
00:03:32.880 We start there in 60 seconds.
00:03:34.900 Maybe you drank too much coffee in the morning.
00:03:37.620 Maybe you carried the stress of your day over the threshold into your home.
00:03:43.320 Maybe you haven't put all of that stuff where it belongs.
00:03:46.360 Maybe you just had a hard time shutting the old brain down at the end of the day.
00:03:49.240 But whatever the reason that you can't sleep, it's a real problem.
00:03:52.860 And you're not alone.
00:03:53.600 Millions share it.
00:03:54.480 Thankfully, there is something available that can help you.
00:03:57.520 I've been there, done that.
00:03:59.840 My wife takes Z-Factor almost every night.
00:04:03.180 And I begin taking it every night because it is really unbelievable.
00:04:06.660 You don't feel it in your body at all.
00:04:08.820 It's a 100% drug-free way to help you fall asleep faster, sleep better, and stay asleep longer.
00:04:13.860 It's Z-Factor, a formula of all four natural ingredients to calm your mind and relax your body.

00:04:33.980 That's relieffactor.com.
00:04:36.100 800, the number four, relief.
00:04:38.200 800, the number four, relief.
00:04:42.620 Stu, this is like constitutional porn.
00:04:45.260 I just want to warn you.
00:04:46.540 I just want to warn you.
00:04:47.900 You might hear some sexy music in your own head.
00:04:52.780 You might be like, oh, yeah, ding dong, pizza delivery.
00:04:56.240 You might hear that.
00:04:58.000 This is the most amazing thing I have heard any president ever say.
00:05:03.980 This is Donald Trump.
00:05:05.880 That's quite a standard.
00:05:07.440 Just I want you to make a list.
00:05:09.020 Okay.
00:05:09.620 Just when he says, oh, and I'm going to do this.
00:05:12.020 Just make a list.
00:05:13.240 Okay.
00:05:13.720 This is his plan to answer and the censorship cartel.
00:05:20.500 If we don't have free speech, then we just don't have a free country.
00:05:25.660 It's as simple as that.
00:05:27.220 If this most fundamental right is allowed to perish, then the rest of our rights and liberties will topple, just like dominoes, one by one.
00:05:36.500 They'll go down.
00:05:37.340 That's why today I'm announcing my plan to shatter the left wing censorship regime and to reclaim the right to free speech for all Americans.
00:05:47.800 And reclaim is a very important word in this case because they've taken it away.
00:05:53.840 In recent weeks, bombshell reports have confirmed that a sinister group of deep state bureaucrats, Silicon Valley tyrants, left wing activists and depraved corporate news media have been conspiring to manipulate and silence the American people.
00:06:11.200 They have collaborated to suppress vital information on everything from elections to public health.
00:06:19.380 The censorship cartel must be dismantled and destroyed, and it must happen immediately.
00:06:26.700 And here's my plan.
00:06:27.900 First, within hours of my inauguration, I will sign an executive order banning any federal department or agency from colluding with any organization, business or person
00:06:39.820 to censor, limit, categorize, or impede the lawful speech of American citizens.
00:06:47.540 I will then ban federal money from being used to label domestic speech as mis- or dis-information.
00:06:55.920 And I will begin the process of identifying and firing every federal bureaucrat who has engaged in domestic censorship, directly or indirectly,
00:07:06.020 whether they are the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Health, Human Services, the FBI, the DOJ, no matter who they are.
00:07:15.740 Second, I will order the Department of Justice to investigate all parties involved in the new online censorship regime, which is absolutely destructive and terrible,
00:07:28.200 and to aggressively prosecute any and to aggressively prosecute any and all crimes identified.
00:07:33.300 These include possible violations of federal civil rights law, campaign finance laws, federal election law, securities law, and antitrust laws,
00:07:44.280 the Hatch Act, and a host of other potential criminal, civil, regulatory, and constitutional offenses.
00:07:51.280 To assist in these efforts, I am urging House Republicans to immediately send preservation letters,
00:07:59.900 and we have to do this right now, to the Biden administration, the Biden campaign, and every Silicon Valley tech giant,
00:08:07.560 ordering them not to destroy evidence of censorship.
00:08:11.800 Third, upon my inauguration as president, I will ask Congress to send a bill to my desk,
00:08:16.980 revising Section 230 to get big online platforms out of censorship business.
00:08:25.040 From now on, digital platforms should only qualify for immunity protection under Section 230
00:08:30.960 if they meet high standards of neutrality, transparency, fairness, and non-discrimination.
00:08:37.940 We should require these platforms to increase their efforts to take down unlawful content,
00:08:44.020 such as child exploitation and promoting terrorism while dramatically curtailing their power
00:08:51.320 to arbitrarily restrict lawful speech.
00:08:55.420 Fourth, we need to break up the entire toxic censorship industry
00:08:59.760 that has arisen under the false guise of tackling so-called mis- and disinformation.
00:09:05.980 The federal government should immediately stop funding all non-profits
00:09:09.720 and academic programs that support this authoritarian project.
00:09:15.260 If any U.S. university is discovered to have engaged in censorship activities
00:09:19.960 or election interferences in the past, such as flagging social media content
00:09:26.360 for removal of blacklisting, those universities should lose federal research dollars
00:09:32.120 and federal student loan support for a period of five years and maybe more.
00:09:36.960 We should also enact new laws laying out clear criminal penalties for federal bureaucrats
00:09:43.020 who partner with private entities to do an end run around the Constitution
00:09:48.020 and deprive Americans of their first, fourth, and fifth amendment rights.
00:09:53.720 In other words, deprive them of their vote.
00:09:56.920 And once you lose those elections, and once you lose your borders like we have,
00:10:01.800 you no longer have a country.
00:10:03.300 Furthermore, to confront the problems of major platforms being infiltrated
00:10:08.400 by legions of former deep-staters and intelligence officials,
00:10:13.280 there should be a seven-year calling-off period before any employee of the FBI,
00:10:18.860 CIA, NSA, DNI, DHS, or DOD is allowed to take a job
00:10:25.740 at a company possessing vast quantities of U.S. user data.
00:10:30.940 Fifth, the time has finally come for Congress to pass a digital bill of rights.
00:10:37.300 This should include a right to digital due process.
00:10:41.560 In other words, government officials should need a court order to take down online content,
00:10:48.040 not send information requests such as the FBI was sending to Twitter.
00:10:52.920 Furthermore, when users of big online platforms have their content or accounts removed,
00:11:00.000 throttled, shadow banned, or otherwise restricted, no matter what name they use,
00:11:05.900 they should have the right to be informed that it's happening,
00:11:09.780 the right to a specific explanation of the reason why,
00:11:13.960 and the right to a timely appeal.
00:11:16.180 In addition, all users over the age of 18 should have the right to opt out of content,
00:11:21.820 moderation, and curation entirely,
00:11:24.080 and receive an unmanipulated stream of information if they so choose.
00:11:30.340 The fight for free speech is a matter of victory or death for America
00:11:34.240 and for the survival of Western civilization itself.
00:11:38.260 When I am president, this whole rotten system of censorship and information control
00:11:43.580 will be ripped out of the system at large.
00:11:47.220 There won't be anything left.
00:11:49.700 By restoring free speech, we'll begin to reclaim our democracy and save our nation.
00:11:55.280 Thank you, and God bless America.
00:11:59.220 Wow.
00:12:00.940 I mean, the first thing that strikes me on that is just how different it was than 2016.
00:12:05.400 That's not a guy who's just walking in, I don't know, who should we pick?
00:12:09.120 Like, that's somebody who has a plan.
00:12:11.080 That's one of the exciting things is this is so detailed, even just what he said.
00:12:16.880 You know there's much more than this behind each one of these,
00:12:22.320 and so much thought behind all of this.
00:12:25.540 This is a guy who has sat there for at least the last two years,
00:12:31.300 probably the last four years, going, all right, I get a second chance.
00:12:35.500 What do we do?
00:12:36.540 What do we do?
00:12:37.660 This is the most comprehensive thing I've ever heard a Republican president ever lay out.
00:12:45.680 Now, the Democrats do it, but usually they do it in a bill of about 3,000 pages,
00:12:50.100 and you just don't find out until after you just like the Happy Meal bill.
00:12:55.340 Right.
00:12:55.840 You know, and you're like, wait, is this for Happy Meals?
00:12:57.860 You mean like the Inflation Reduction Act?
00:13:00.120 Yeah, yeah, kind of like that.
00:13:01.360 Oh, okay.
00:13:01.980 I mean, look at the list.
00:13:04.580 Yeah, I mean, there's a lot in there.
00:13:06.180 Oh, yeah.
00:13:07.800 Yeah.
00:13:08.360 The, look, going after the federal employees colluding to censor speech.
00:13:14.220 And put them in jail.
00:13:15.440 Taking the federal money and away from people who are kind of walking that line
00:13:21.920 and drawing our guardrails on mis- and disinformation.
00:13:25.480 That's that, that's that, what was that name of that organization over in England that we helped start?
00:13:31.920 Yeah, yeah.
00:13:32.300 All the people, all the people that were involved in that, bye-bye.
00:13:35.740 And I think like a lot of the people on the left and the media will take that as like,
00:13:39.280 oh, he just wants to be able to say conspiracy theories and not be fact-checked.
00:13:43.260 And that's just not, the truth is that the federal government should have no role in that.
00:13:47.540 None.
00:13:47.920 It's up to, you want to have a media organization, it's not going to stop ABC News from doing misinformation reporting.
00:13:53.040 No.
00:13:53.540 As dumb as it might be.
00:13:55.080 No.
00:13:55.600 It's just going to stop federal money going to that process.
00:13:58.500 Correct.
00:13:58.520 Which is totally appropriate for a country that has a First Amendment.
00:14:01.240 Correct.
00:14:01.440 Prosecuting crimes that happened.
00:14:03.660 I'm sure they'll say this is punishing enemies, but in reality, if you commit a crime, there's supposed to be a consequence.
00:14:11.060 And this is a constitutional crime.
00:14:13.200 Government getting involved in freedom of speech.
00:14:15.760 That's a constitutional crime.
00:14:17.400 And sending preservation letters so that these suits can go forward.
00:14:20.500 So they're not like clearing out, deleting all these files now before he gets into office.
00:14:24.360 That's tough.
00:14:25.080 And that's going to be, by the way, not something he can do personally.
00:14:28.600 That's going to be something senators and such.
00:14:30.240 That's why he said they have to send that right away.
00:14:32.740 I mean, look, all of this is, I think, is good.
00:14:35.460 Is there any part in there that makes you at all nervous?
00:14:38.820 There's a couple points in there that I could see going the wrong way if we're not careful, which is rewriting section 230.
00:14:45.400 Yes, that could be Dyson.
00:14:46.660 That could be, there's nothing wrong with rewriting section 230, but you just have to, you have to be careful with it.
00:14:53.100 Well, what he said is.
00:14:54.480 I think what he said.
00:14:55.100 As long as you have quality.
00:14:58.480 High standards of neutrality.
00:15:00.000 Yeah.
00:15:01.000 High standards of neutrality.
00:15:03.400 You have to qualify for that.
00:15:05.380 And you should ban things that are illegal, you know, child porn, terrorism, things like that.
00:15:13.240 And that is theoretically already there, but we have really loose standards on these companies for enforcing it.
00:15:19.880 Yeah, it's basically like if you get multiple requests to take some material down and you don't, you can be in trouble.
00:15:25.960 But generally speaking, like they are, they don't have to take action to go get the stuff.
00:15:32.300 They have to just wait for it to be reported to them.
00:15:34.400 And then they have to do it after that process.
00:15:36.660 But the process, of course, is really weak, right?
00:15:39.040 You have millions and millions and millions of posts going up.
00:15:42.120 They would argue that it's impossible to get to all of it.
00:15:45.380 Oh, well.
00:15:47.060 Oh, well.
00:15:47.840 Oh, no.
00:15:48.180 Maybe you don't get to be as large a company.
00:15:50.120 Right.
00:15:50.300 Maybe, maybe, you know what?
00:15:51.580 Maybe, I mean, look, my, of course, fantasy here is that maybe this doesn't work within the law and the social media companies just go away.
00:15:58.500 That would be tragic.
00:16:00.460 That would be terrible.
00:16:01.960 Now, of course, Zorin, Max Zorin of Zorin Industries, if you go back to A View to a Kill, the documentary from 1985.
00:16:10.660 I believe that was a James Bond movie.
00:16:11.940 And actually, he advocated for explosives under the earth that would cause a earthquake that would flood all of Silicon Valley.
00:16:21.140 Now, I don't, he didn't get to that, unfortunately.
00:16:23.160 I was waiting for that as one of the action steps for the new Trump administration.
00:16:27.100 Didn't quite get there.
00:16:28.380 But, I mean, that's just, maybe that's step seven.
00:16:31.340 We'll get there eventually.
00:16:32.660 The Digital Bill of Rights is so important.
00:16:35.300 Yep, that was interesting.
00:16:36.020 I mean, what's interesting about that is you have a right to go without an algorithm.
00:16:42.460 Love that.
00:16:43.360 And it's interesting because Europe has a Digital Bill of Rights.
00:16:48.200 I would assume it's not going to look very much like the Trump one.
00:16:51.160 No, I don't think so.
00:16:51.580 But it is, first of all, there are some similarities.
00:16:55.440 It's like you own your own data.
00:16:57.120 That is a big part.
00:16:57.980 That's the concept behind the European one.
00:17:00.700 Some of those concepts, you could say, are good and I'm sure will be brought over.
00:17:06.080 But also just the idea that, you know, you don't have to be manipulated by this.
00:17:10.620 Now, it's tough because you should be able to run a website that you own.
00:17:16.780 Yes.
00:17:17.040 Right?
00:17:17.220 Like, the Blaze should not need to go neutral and give all sorts of information from the left, right?
00:17:24.760 Like, we should be able to do what we want to do with our own website.
00:17:27.940 Now, there's that distinction between publisher and sort of curator, a social network, that I think will probably be the line there.
00:17:36.600 But again, the details matter on this stuff.
00:17:38.840 As we've seen over and over and over again, if you don't get that exactly right, it could be a problem.
00:17:43.360 But I mean, you know, that's what the process will be for.
00:17:45.920 I think the idea, first of all, you're a public square now.
00:17:50.240 This is where people –
00:17:52.120 I hate the public square argument.
00:17:55.200 It's digital now.
00:17:56.400 I know.
00:17:58.360 Nobody gets on their soapbox and we're walking in our town square and we see somebody stand up and say, I want to give a speech.
00:18:04.260 Well, if you want a town square, then, you know, then it's like – then make a town square.
00:18:10.160 These are companies that have spent their own money on this stuff.
00:18:12.400 I understand.
00:18:12.740 I just feel like they should be – look, there's a lot here that I understand and I think is a good thing.
00:18:18.760 Making essentially – just turning giant private companies into utilities makes me very nervous.
00:18:24.000 No, I'm not saying –
00:18:24.640 I mean, should Elon Musk have to deal with all that?
00:18:26.740 No, I –
00:18:27.100 He bought the company.
00:18:27.900 No, no, no.
00:18:28.360 He – if he – I mean, when is the next – the next government, the next time the Democrats get in control and they take this public square and they make their own rules with it, makes me really nervous.
00:18:37.820 I get – I get what he's saying.
00:18:40.040 I think the – I think we'll be able to walk this line, but let's be honest that we have to walk a line here and just be careful here.
00:18:46.760 I agree with that.
00:18:48.120 Okay.
00:18:48.220 But you have – you have things like an algorithm.
00:18:52.560 You have a right to unmask.
00:18:54.660 I don't have a right to necessarily know their algorithm.
00:18:57.260 Yeah.
00:18:57.580 But I do have a right to say, you know what, I don't want you filtering stuff.
00:19:01.900 Why don't you have a right to do that?
00:19:03.540 And this is the sort of thing that they should have just done.
00:19:06.220 Yeah, it is.
00:19:06.600 You know, it wouldn't have been an issue if they just did it.
00:19:10.100 Yep.
00:19:10.240 It would have been easy.
00:19:11.540 They should have just had an off button, but they couldn't bring themselves to do that because they wanted, A, money, and, B, to control the public opinion.
00:19:20.140 How many people will their eyes be opened if you have that?
00:19:23.920 And you just say, just unmask it.
00:19:25.420 Just unmask it for a week.
00:19:27.820 See what you see.
00:19:29.260 Be pretty amazing.
00:19:30.080 Yeah.
00:19:30.460 All right.
00:19:31.000 Let me tell you about Linda.
00:19:32.380 She wrote in about her dog's experience.
00:19:34.060 By the way, happy Veterans Day.
00:19:35.400 She wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Green.
00:19:38.180 She said, Lucy just had her 11th birthday in September.
00:19:41.540 You know, since trying Rough Green, she now waits impatiently for her meals.
00:19:46.180 She initiates playing with her Frisbee, something she hadn't done in years.
00:19:49.840 And she's like my walking partner again.
00:19:53.220 It's the clock turning back on her.
00:19:55.700 Thank you so much for Rough Greens.
00:19:57.680 Linda, thanks for having your dog try out Rough Greens.
00:20:00.040 And thanks for writing in.
00:20:01.320 There is nothing like seeing your dog's health improve.
00:20:05.340 Rough Greens is not a dog food.
00:20:06.820 It's a supplement.
00:20:07.980 And you sprinkle that supplement on your dog's food.
00:20:10.440 It contains all of the good stuff your dog needs, like probiotics and antioxidants.
00:20:14.500 Because remember, brown food is dead food.
00:20:16.340 You need the green stuff.
00:20:17.740 The folks at Rough Greens are so confident that your dog is going to love Rough Greens.
00:20:20.960 They have a special deal for you.
00:20:22.180 Do you just go to roughgreens.com slash back?
00:20:24.960 They're going to give you a first trial bag for free.

00:20:38.080 That's 833-GLEN-33.
00:20:40.680 Roughgreens.com slash back.
00:20:43.040 10 seconds.
00:20:43.620 Station ID.
00:20:44.120 So, uh, the president just, uh, released the name of who he wants as UN ambassador.
00:21:02.560 Yeah, um, this is, uh, this is Stefanik.
00:21:09.120 Yes, Elise Stefanik.
00:21:10.180 Thank you very much.
00:21:10.780 This is an interesting pick because I think, number one, she'll probably be pretty good at this job.
00:21:15.420 She did an excellent job.
00:21:17.060 Um, you know, she, she's been all over the anti-Semitism stuff.
00:21:20.360 She's not going to back down from all of these countries who are constantly going after the United States
00:21:28.240 and constantly going after Israel and other allies, right?
00:21:30.600 Like, I, she's good from that perspective.
00:21:33.260 And one of the things she was talked about as a potential VP pick, and it was like, well, you really haven't seen the full breadth of who she is.
00:21:40.760 And this is an interesting place for her.
00:21:43.040 Obviously, it led to, um, running for president eventually for Nikki Haley, uh, who obviously didn't win, but was, you know, in the final three or four people.
00:21:52.360 It's only because Hispanic men don't like women.
00:21:54.940 There you go.
00:21:55.720 You don't like strong women.
00:21:56.740 That's why he keeps doing this over and over again.
00:21:58.180 He hates strong women.
00:21:59.240 Uh, he just named a woman for the first time ever as, uh, uh, the, uh, chief of staff.
00:22:07.180 Yeah.
00:22:07.360 In the White House.
00:22:08.120 Another interesting thing.
00:22:08.960 And now a second woman he's nominated to, kind of an important role at the UN.
00:22:13.160 Yeah.
00:22:13.520 Now, the only thing I don't like about this is, uh, isn't she from a democratic state with a democratic governor who's going to just put a Democrat into Congress?
00:22:23.840 The House.
00:22:24.260 This, yeah, this is interesting because it looks as of right now that the Republicans will get the House.
00:22:30.040 I think, I mean, my, I've been, you know, obsessing over all this stuff over the weekend too much, but it seems like they're going to clear 218.
00:22:38.760 They basically have cleared 218.
00:22:40.720 They probably will get to 220-ish.
00:22:44.600 Now, if you remove a Republican from the House, you obviously lose one of those seats.
00:22:50.420 Now, she's in a pretty safe district in a blue state.
00:22:52.880 Uh, she, you know, yeah, but, but you're going to have a period where she's not there and you have to wait for that, that next special election to occur to put somebody in that position.
00:23:01.800 So you're going to have months.
00:23:02.620 So you get to a point, doesn't he?
00:23:04.220 Or is that just for senators?
00:23:05.660 Yeah.
00:23:06.020 Senators would be the governor of the state would appoint in this.
00:23:08.780 This would be a special election, which, which a Republican will likely win.
00:23:12.280 Yes.
00:23:12.540 But that being said, you have months where there's no one in that seat.
00:23:16.060 Right.
00:23:16.440 And that does play with your majorities a little bit.
00:23:18.720 It's the beginning of playing with your majorities.
00:23:20.940 There's not a big room for error there.
00:23:22.900 No, there's really not.
00:23:26.860 Glenn Beck.

00:24:57.960 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:25:05.400 Well, we're seeing that Donald Trump really wasn't using Project 2024.
00:25:11.300 He said, I'm not using, I haven't even read it.
00:25:13.100 We're doing our own thing.
00:25:14.100 2025.
00:25:15.060 Yeah, 2025.
00:25:15.640 It was the Heritage Foundation.
00:25:17.040 And it's pretty clear.
00:25:19.440 It's pretty clear.
00:25:20.060 He did his own thing.
00:25:21.600 Yeah, I think quite clear.
00:25:23.280 It was ready to go, too.
00:25:24.500 The interesting part about 2024 as opposed to 2016 for Trump is you could tell he actually thought he was winning this.
00:25:31.700 Like, this is 2016.
00:25:32.560 Remember, we thought he was kind of like, whoa, hang on.
00:25:35.180 There's a lot of reporting from people who are allies of Trump who said, like, going into that, they just kind of thought they were going to lose in 2016.
00:25:43.100 They weren't particularly prepared to go forward with everything ready.
00:25:47.200 Now, you know, Trump says that's not as accurate as some have said.
00:25:52.020 But the bottom line is, I think you watched going into 2016.
00:25:55.980 It was a struggle to figure out who he was going to bring into the administration.
00:25:59.080 He talked.
00:25:59.680 He's talked about how he didn't know anybody.
00:26:01.660 He was trying to find this all out as he was going.
00:26:03.940 It's a totally different world.
00:26:06.000 And for all the this is sort of what they built, the scaremongering against Trump.
00:26:12.040 Like, that was the effort of the left to say, this time he's prepared.
00:26:15.660 This time he knows what he's doing.
00:26:17.140 This is going to be terrible.
00:26:18.500 Well, it's also the opposite.
00:26:19.520 If you like his policy, this is probably going to be really good.
00:26:22.780 Yeah.
00:26:23.140 And I really like it so far.
00:26:24.720 Everything he's saying.
00:26:25.500 Although, please pray for his protection.
00:26:29.480 I mean, he is taking on every powerful person in the West.
00:26:35.900 Every single one.
00:26:37.180 And then throw on Iran, North Korea, and Putin.
00:26:43.640 It's going to be a lot.
00:26:44.720 It's going to be a lot.
00:26:45.640 It's going to be a lot.
00:26:46.580 But he also announced this over the weekend.
00:26:50.540 Cut four.
00:26:51.960 Seventh, I will protect the right of self-defense everywhere it is under siege.
00:26:57.140 And I will sign concealed carry reciprocity.
00:27:01.000 Your Second Amendment does not end at the state line.
00:27:04.640 I like that.
00:27:05.520 Now, that would be a law.
00:27:06.620 He said sign, right?
00:27:07.760 So that would be a law.
00:27:09.160 Yeah, yeah.
00:27:09.760 But he'd have to get that.
00:27:10.640 That would be tough to get through Congress.
00:27:12.120 But I wouldn't think.
00:27:14.260 Not if you control House and Senate.
00:27:16.920 I mean, there might be some.
00:27:17.960 I mean, I don't know how California.
00:27:20.280 California would lose their mind.
00:27:22.580 It might be worth doing just for that.
00:27:24.140 Just for that.
00:27:24.600 Just to watch Gavin.
00:27:25.680 Could you see that Gavin Newsom wants a special session of California Congress to lock in all the liberal policies before Trump takes over?
00:27:33.520 Which is fascinating because, you know, a lot of those things were on the ballot.
00:27:37.840 Like those liberal crime policies were on the ballot in California and were just slaughtered by Californians who were like, no more of this.
00:27:46.520 And then Gavin Newsom, who quite clearly, this is a move for him to run in 2028.
00:27:52.220 He wants to lock that stuff in.
00:27:54.440 He wants to double, triple, quadruple down on those same terrible policies that have failed the people of California.
00:28:00.180 Well, then you'll need your you'll need to fly out to Texas, live here for a while, get your gun permit and then go ahead and go out to California, maybe commute.
00:28:11.260 But you're going to need your gun in California.
00:28:12.940 How does this work?
00:28:13.920 How does a policy like this work?
00:28:17.200 Reciprocity is if I live in Texas, there is like, I don't know, 40 states, 45 states where my gun permit from Texas is good in all of those other states.
00:28:29.760 So if I'm pulled over carrying a gun in Idaho, I don't have to have an Idaho concealed carry.
00:28:36.760 Right.
00:28:37.200 OK.
00:28:37.640 And so what this means, and you have to be very careful as a gun owner.
00:28:41.480 Do I have these rights in this state?
00:28:43.540 Oh, I'm terrified.
00:28:45.580 We've talked about that before.
00:28:46.740 I lived a block away from New Jersey.
00:28:48.940 I lived in Pennsylvania.
00:28:50.720 And you cross this bridge all the time to get gas.
00:28:52.900 Yeah.
00:28:53.060 But if you have your gun in your car, you might wind up in prison for multiple years.
00:28:56.700 Oh, yeah.
00:28:57.220 Even though you're not breaking the law at all in Pennsylvania, you take one wrong turn.
00:29:00.980 You go over the bridge one day, there's a road closing, and all of a sudden you're a criminal.
00:29:04.800 It was scary in New York.
00:29:05.620 Yeah.
00:29:05.820 It was really scary there because they'll put you away for 20 years.
00:29:09.080 But what he's suggesting, and I'm not sure this is a federal right or a state right.
00:29:16.740 This might fall under the 10th.
00:29:18.640 This will be an interesting one.
00:29:19.580 Yeah, this will be interesting because I'm not sure they can do this.
00:29:24.120 You know what I mean?
00:29:25.040 I'm for it, but I don't want to do anything to weaken the Constitution on this.
00:29:29.280 But what he's saying is passing a law that says you get your gun license to conceal carry in any state, in Texas, or wherever, congratulations, you can carry it in New York City.
00:29:46.200 What?
00:29:47.120 Can you imagine that?
00:29:48.560 Can you imagine how much they'd freak out over that?
00:29:50.300 Oh, they would freak out.
00:29:52.260 People freak out when they come to Texas.
00:29:54.420 Everybody here has a gun.
00:29:56.080 Yeah.
00:29:56.780 Yeah, they do.
00:29:57.560 And you notice we're not killing each other.
00:30:00.080 What's up with that?
00:30:01.840 It's so crazy.
00:30:04.200 Yeah, that's obviously something that I would favor generally.
00:30:08.880 It depends.
00:30:09.600 A lot of this is interesting, too, in that he's outlining the principle, right?
00:30:13.660 He's outlining this is what we're going for.
00:30:16.180 And the details will be important, A, as to whether it's effective or not, right?
00:30:21.180 Because there's going to be all sorts of swarmy people that are going to try to water this stuff down so it's not effective.
00:30:27.560 That he gets the thing he wants and they try to essentially trick him into making it less effective.
00:30:33.980 That happened a lot in his first term where he would ask for things and they would do them in a way that sort of checked the box but didn't actually work.
00:30:42.580 So that's going to be another thing he's going to have to fight.
00:30:45.200 And he's got a lot of people around him to fight that battle.
00:30:47.520 And the second thing, of course, there are constitutional concerns if you go too far on this stuff.
00:30:53.240 Not necessarily with the Second Amendment because it's already in the Constitution.
00:30:57.200 Right.
00:30:57.360 But federalism, of course, is important as well.
00:30:59.600 Right.
00:30:59.920 And this is something that the left will never give anybody credit for.
00:31:04.920 I don't want to steamroll the Constitution.
00:31:08.380 They will.
00:31:09.260 If Donald Trump said we're going to pack the court, I'd be against it.
00:31:13.360 You know, we'd be – I mean, I would hang up my career on that one.
00:31:19.060 We're not packing the Supreme Court.
00:31:21.360 The left just – they just steamroll past these things.
00:31:24.420 They don't really care.
00:31:26.060 The ones who are constitutional conservatives, like I am, truly care about all of the Bill of Rights, every word in the Bill of Rights and the way the Constitution is written.
00:31:36.620 I care about every word in there.
00:31:38.780 If it's constitutional, great.
00:31:40.200 If it's not, no, we're not doing it.
00:31:43.080 No matter how much we want it, we're not doing it.
00:31:46.020 Yeah, and I think a lot of this is approach, right?
00:31:47.980 Like I think a lot of people would agree that we have issues with our food system, right, and problems with that.
00:31:55.420 But in addition to that, I don't necessarily want my central government to make me healthy, right?
00:32:01.960 Like that's not necessarily what I want out of them.
00:32:03.700 I don't want them to ban Froot Loops because they don't like them, right?
00:32:07.440 I like them.
00:32:08.460 I like Froot Loops.
00:32:09.880 I like Cheez-Its.
00:32:11.680 Right.
00:32:11.820 They're not talking about Froot Loops.
00:32:13.620 They're not talking about banning Froot Loops.
00:32:15.680 They're saying the other countries don't put these dangerous chemicals in them, and they taste the same.
00:32:22.240 First of all, no, this is nonsense.
00:32:24.500 I mean, like the stuff that they're saying, like the RFK, we had a clip the other day on your show where they're like, RFK Jr. is like, did you know in Canada they have three ingredients in Froot Loops?
00:32:32.640 No, they don't.
00:32:33.760 Look at the freaking label.
00:32:35.260 They got way more ingredients than three.
00:32:36.700 There are a couple of agreements that are different.
00:32:39.940 And look, you can argue whether you think they're dangerous or not.
00:32:42.800 I'm not concerned about it.
00:32:44.080 Others are.
00:32:44.900 He is saying, but his point is, because I did a show on this, his point was, it's not just that that one dangerous thing is in Froot Loops.
00:32:54.340 It's in everything.
00:32:55.700 And that's a great, look, that may be correct.
00:32:58.320 Yes.
00:32:58.520 It may be the thing that makes RFK Jr. look like the buff 72-year-old man he is.
00:33:04.340 Right.
00:33:04.760 That being said, he doesn't get to make all of the decisions of what I eat.
00:33:08.400 No, I don't want him to.
00:33:09.360 And I don't think Trump does either.
00:33:11.080 No.
00:33:11.460 Especially a guy who likes McDonald's.
00:33:12.700 Right.
00:33:13.000 He's more me than RFK Jr.
00:33:15.200 So I think what he's asking for is, what are the regulations?
00:33:20.400 I think Trump is just an anti-regulation guy.
00:33:23.580 He wants to free up all the regulations that are nonsense.
00:33:27.000 Yeah.
00:33:27.180 So I think he's asking RFK to go in.
00:33:29.700 Notice he's not in charge.
00:33:31.940 He's just a consultant.
00:33:33.740 And that's fine.
00:33:34.780 That's great.
00:33:35.320 And so I think that's because Trump is like, I want to know who to fire.
00:33:39.420 I want to break the back of this pharmaceutical, you know, love fest with the government and the FDA.
00:33:46.720 And I want to know recommendations of what regulations should be put on and should be taken away.
00:33:54.300 I think that's what he's doing.
00:33:56.060 He's not saying, hey, you know what?
00:33:58.920 You tell us what to eat.
00:34:00.120 Right.
00:34:00.480 How much meat should we have?
00:34:01.900 And I think, look, RFK Jr. absolutely wants to tell you what to eat.
00:34:05.580 Right.
00:34:06.120 Oh, yeah.
00:34:06.540 But Trump doesn't.
00:34:07.580 And that's what's going to be an interesting part of this process.
00:34:10.320 Because you might agree or disagree with a lot of these ideas.
00:34:14.520 How are they going to be instituted?
00:34:16.600 Right.
00:34:16.980 Are they instituted with the respect to the Constitution that we all think so?
00:34:21.340 I think the answer to this is going to be yes.
00:34:23.480 It's just going to be a road that all of us are going to have to just make sure we're looking at, including and most centrally Trump and the people around Trump.
00:34:31.480 I think that's what we're going to get.
00:34:33.540 And I just want to make sure that we're looking for all of that as we go.
00:34:36.080 So it's things like this on the milk thing.
00:34:41.920 Okay.
00:34:42.500 What is it called, the regular non-pasteurized milk?
00:34:45.880 Raw milk.
00:34:47.020 Yeah.
00:34:47.580 So raw milk.
00:34:49.820 I saw this.
00:34:51.820 I don't remember what it was.
00:34:53.260 But they were talking to these farmers and Amish people.
00:34:56.440 And the Amish guys were like, Jebediah here has been milking this cow forever.
00:35:01.860 And we just make sure the teats are clean.
00:35:04.980 And you're like, okay, all right.
00:35:07.040 And this.
00:35:07.920 What accent was that exactly?
00:35:09.220 This Amish guy says, look, pasteurizing your milk, that's an 18th century solution for the 21st century.
00:35:22.360 Why are we doing that?
00:35:23.420 And I'm like, wait, you don't have a car.
00:35:27.000 You're in a horse and bucky.
00:35:29.340 You should probably think that one through all the way, not just on pasteurization.
00:35:35.300 But it's true.
00:35:36.600 It came from people not washing the cattle down.
00:35:42.000 And you can have restrictions on how that cow is milked instead of taking out all of the good things.
00:35:48.660 Yeah, like the raw milk thing strikes me as a good version of this idea.
00:35:53.160 Yes.
00:35:53.380 Where what you're saying is, if people want raw milk, let them have it.
00:35:57.280 Let them have raw milk.
00:35:57.840 A bad version of this was, only raw milk exists.
00:36:01.460 Yes.
00:36:01.720 Like you were banning pasteurization, right?
00:36:04.080 Like that would be a bad thing.
00:36:05.320 You should be able to have it.
00:36:06.300 And like he, you know, like RFK Jr., many people in that movement might totally think that the pasteurization process is bad.
00:36:13.100 I just think that people should be able to make their own decisions on it.
00:36:16.600 And I think that's where we'll end up.
00:36:18.280 I think that he's not going to ban.
00:36:20.500 Right.
00:36:20.840 You know, he's not going to.
00:36:21.760 Of course not.
00:36:22.160 No.
00:36:22.340 And he's not going to ban, you know, electric cars.
00:36:25.940 Right.
00:36:26.680 He's going to.
00:36:27.140 Back to, I mean, if anything.
00:36:27.980 He's just like, I'm going to stop giving money to that.
00:36:30.180 And we're going to stop this nonsense that that's where we're going to be in five years.
00:36:34.140 And that'll be an interesting one to play out, too.
00:36:35.920 Because as we've seen with Tesla stock, a friend of mine has a bunch of it.
00:36:40.220 And he's like, we're up 30% this week.
00:36:43.460 Wow.
00:36:43.880 It's, I mean, Elon being so close to Trump and being so connected to this.
00:36:48.120 Oh, yeah.
00:36:49.240 Obviously, you'd assume that there's not going to be any anti, you know, electric car legislation.
00:36:57.520 I've talked to him about it.
00:36:58.520 Yeah.
00:36:58.680 He said, I don't like the electric car.
00:37:01.260 Some people like it.
00:37:02.200 I don't like it.
00:37:02.940 Yeah.
00:37:03.040 And we're not going to just, we're not going to force people to buy them.
00:37:06.300 And that's.
00:37:06.900 That's great.
00:37:07.520 That's fantastic.
00:37:08.540 Right.
00:37:08.720 And I don't think they should be banned or anything like that.
00:37:11.540 I don't think Elon Musk wants more government money necessarily.
00:37:15.980 I don't think he needs it.
00:37:17.100 So I don't think we should ever give it to him.
00:37:19.220 We shouldn't have given it to him in the first place.
00:37:20.800 I agree.
00:37:21.320 And he said that, by the way.
00:37:22.500 He said, you know, that he does not agree with those policies.
00:37:25.480 Right.
00:37:25.740 But he said, it's like Trump with the taxes.
00:37:28.260 You don't want me to have it.
00:37:29.800 Then stop offering it.
00:37:31.320 You know what I mean?
00:37:32.360 Right.
00:37:32.460 Stop giving it to all my competitors.
00:37:33.960 I have to take it if they're taking it.
00:37:36.480 And he's right.
00:37:37.340 You want me to pay higher taxes?
00:37:39.300 Pass a law.
00:37:41.540 Or don't.
00:37:42.580 Or don't.
00:37:43.260 Or don't.
00:37:43.580 In fact, don't.
00:37:44.360 Yes.
00:37:44.680 Don't.
00:37:45.140 So that'll be interesting to see.
00:37:46.340 It's going to be fascinating because these are ideas people have talked about for a long
00:37:50.320 time.
00:37:50.640 Like a school choice is another interesting one for me.
00:37:52.860 I can't wait till he takes on.
00:37:54.300 I can't wait to see these videos.
00:37:56.000 They're all made in the same place.
00:37:57.800 So I think he's taken.
00:37:59.640 He's just taken in chunks.
00:38:01.300 And better than a 45 minute speech of like things that everyone's going to forget.
00:38:05.680 Yeah.
00:38:05.980 Boil it down.
00:38:06.660 He's doing them all in five or six minutes.
00:38:08.460 All in categories.
00:38:10.140 I mean, it's really sharp.
00:38:11.860 This is going to be really, really fascinating to watch.
00:38:13.880 Yeah.
00:38:14.160 And probably a little dangerous.
00:38:16.000 Probably a little dangerous.
00:38:17.300 Back in just a second.
00:38:18.800 What actually matters today?
00:38:20.700 For you, I know your family matters.
00:38:22.220 Faith matters.
00:38:22.920 Living a life of integrity matters.
00:38:24.620 America matters.
00:38:26.260 American Giant was created 13 years ago to save a clothing company in North Carolina.
00:38:30.640 So jobs were saved and the employees could continue to do their work.
00:38:34.660 That matters.
00:38:35.840 Making clothing in America is not easy.
00:38:38.780 There's so much cheap competition overseas, but it's cheap.
00:38:42.300 It's bad.
00:38:43.320 So why even try though?
00:38:45.060 Because American manufacturing matters.
00:38:48.420 With everything that's going on in the world, it matters more than ever before.
00:38:53.220 You can get great clothing from American Giant.
00:38:56.520 The best hoodie you'll ever own is made by American Giant.
00:38:59.200 With American cotton, American workers, and American quality.
00:39:03.860 Where you spend your money matters.
00:39:06.580 Please take a look at the clothing that American Giant offers.
00:39:09.340 You can buy cheap stuff from overseas.

00:39:32.740 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:39:32.760 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:39:57.640 We're glad you're here.
00:39:59.160 Soon to be released.
00:40:00.400 The Home for Christmas album with the Czech Symphony Orchestra.
00:40:11.620 It's really, really good.
00:40:13.120 Listen to it for the first time as an album.
00:40:15.960 They just finished all the mixing and everything else.
00:40:18.140 Listen to it first time as an album instead of just separate tracks.
00:40:21.440 It's unbelievable.
00:40:22.380 Great.
00:40:22.920 I don't know how clear you've been about this, but you produced this album.
00:40:26.540 And that I've heard said.
00:40:27.420 But, like, you know, it's your daughter.
00:40:30.520 Yes.
00:40:31.860 I think maybe you haven't said that because you just want it to stand on its own merits, which I understand.
00:40:36.660 But, like, she's incredibly talented.
00:40:38.920 I know.
00:40:39.040 But everybody, you know, when you say that, everybody will be like, oh, it's just a daughter, father, daughter.
00:40:44.040 First of all, that's awesome.
00:40:45.380 It is awesome.
00:40:46.120 I love that.
00:40:47.100 Right.
00:40:47.240 Like, I want that in my life.
00:40:50.620 Right.
00:40:50.820 I want my kid when they're older.
00:40:53.320 I want to work.
00:40:54.000 Like, I want to be around them.
00:40:55.220 Like, I think that's awesome.
00:40:56.040 It's really fun.
00:40:57.180 Yeah.
00:40:57.380 It's the only thing I kind of like about LeBron James.
00:41:00.800 Like, you know, like everyone's killing it because he, you know, basically forced the Lakers to draft his son.
00:41:06.100 And it's like, you know, okay.
00:41:08.320 I get that it's a little bit weird.
00:41:09.980 But, like, on the other hand, I kind of like.
00:41:12.340 Is he good?
00:41:13.500 He's obviously good.
00:41:15.340 The question is, is he great?
00:41:17.200 Which you need to be to get into the NBA.
00:41:19.020 Right.
00:41:19.160 And no, he's probably, like, it was, they overdrafted him.
00:41:22.900 But, like, I don't know.
00:41:23.640 At the other hand, it's like, what are you going to do with that pick?
00:41:26.640 You're going to get somebody who might play four minutes a game?
00:41:29.660 I mean, you know, Bronny James might be terrible, but he's got some good lineage.
00:41:33.380 And if it keeps his dad on the team for an extra year, it's obviously worth the pick.
00:41:37.760 That being said, I just like the fact that he, it's the only thing I like about him.
00:41:40.520 He seems like a good, like he's a good dad.
00:41:42.120 He loves his kid.
00:41:42.760 Yeah.
00:41:43.300 And I don't know.
00:41:43.900 I mean, that's not always, that doesn't always lead to good things.
00:41:46.300 In this case, though, an incredible Christmas album.
00:41:48.600 I mean, just from what the bits and pieces they've heard, it is amazing.
00:41:51.120 I love the fact that Stu, when he first heard some of it, he, like, had his mouth open the whole time.
00:41:56.140 Like, how is this an offspring of yours?
00:41:58.860 Right.
00:41:59.260 What is happening here?
00:42:00.960 I'm supportive.
00:42:01.780 Home for Christmas.
00:42:03.140 That's what I do.
00:42:03.440 A new album by Cheyenne Grace.
00:42:06.160 Coming soon.
00:42:10.340 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:42:11.900 Let me tell you about my Patriot Supply.
00:42:15.300 Our nation is in a precarious place.
00:42:18.860 We could fix this.
00:42:23.120 With God's help, we could fix this.
00:42:26.140 But it's going to be a tough needle to thread.
00:42:30.960 So in the meantime, what happens?
00:42:33.040 Do we have a huge shock to the system for your sake and the sake of your family?
00:42:37.760 Please be prepared, as you possibly can be, for whatever might be coming.
00:42:42.440 This is where getting an emergency food from my Patriot Supply can make all the difference in the world.
00:42:47.760 Storing emergency food is the right thing to do, no matter what's going on in the world.
00:42:53.680 Each kit comes with delicious foods like creamy stroganoff, honey wheat bread, mushroom rice pilaf.
00:42:59.160 The entire kit offers 2,000 calories a day, can last in storage for up to 25 years.

00:43:11.560 MyPatriotSupply.com.
00:43:13.080 That's MyPatriotSupply.com.
00:43:16.460 15 seconds.
00:43:29.160 It's a new day.
00:43:57.120 A turn to rain.
00:44:03.580 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:44:12.340 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:44:18.080 Hello, America.
00:44:19.360 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:44:21.600 You know, we have a fight on our hands.
00:44:24.640 We still have to fight.
00:44:26.420 We have to still stand up for what we believe in.
00:44:30.220 We had a great week last week, but now we're starting to see things like the Pentagon.
00:44:35.200 They're having secret meetings at the Pentagon.
00:44:37.680 Think of this.
00:44:39.060 Secret meetings at the Pentagon to discuss what do they do if he starts to order illegal things.
00:44:47.480 Well, if he starts, you don't do them.
00:44:50.640 That's clear.
00:44:51.260 We've always known that.
00:44:53.220 But they're talking about how can we thwart him if he orders a nuclear missile strike.
00:44:59.320 Well, constitutionally, you can't.
00:45:04.500 And were you having those meetings about the guy who is eating pudding every day at 4 o'clock and going nighty-night?
00:45:12.060 No, I don't think so.
00:45:14.200 You cannot thwart the president of the United States.
00:45:18.140 But they're doing it again.
00:45:19.700 We start there in just a few minutes.
00:45:21.160 I don't want to get out over my skis or anything, but I think it's safe to at least hope that the housing market is going to continue to improve now that the big, mean, orange bigot is going to be back in office.
00:45:33.660 I mean, you might be a little more likely to be thinking about moving over the next four years.
00:45:39.780 And for that, you're going to need a real estate agent.
00:45:42.600 And I'm not talking about Sam Amateur who does it on the weekends.
00:45:45.420 I mean a serious person, an adult in the room, if you will.
00:45:48.800 My company, Real Estate Agents I Trust, can pair you up with such an agent.
00:45:53.140 None of these agents work for us.
00:45:55.040 We just seriously, seriously vet them on best practices and everything else.
00:46:00.120 We watch and monitor every sale and transaction that they make to make sure that everybody is happy at the end.
00:46:06.940 Because we want you to have a serious, smart, hardworking, and honest real estate agent.
00:46:12.900 Well, now you can.
00:46:14.200 You just tell us where you're moving to and from, whether it's across the street or across the country, and we'll help you find the right real estate agent.
00:46:21.660 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:46:25.720 realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:46:26.940 So listen to this from CNN.
00:46:31.760 Pentagon officials are holding informal discussions about how the Department of Defense would respond if Donald Trump issues orders to deploy active duty troops domestically.
00:46:41.080 He's not going to do that.
00:46:41.920 He might call out the National Guard with the permission of the state, the governor.
00:46:48.220 I mean, that's what he did last time.
00:46:51.220 And fire large swaths of apolitical staffers.
00:46:56.280 Well, I think he could do that.
00:46:58.600 I could see that happening.
00:47:00.780 Trump has suggested he would be open to using active duty forces for domestic law enforcement.
00:47:06.720 He's talking in case of mass riots all over the country and mass deportations.
00:47:16.320 Wait a minute.
00:47:17.120 Why is the Pentagon involved in mass deportations?
00:47:20.560 What?
00:47:21.140 Why are they discussing this?
00:47:23.220 He has indicated he wants to stack the federal government with loyalists and clean out the corrupt actors in the U.S.
00:47:29.920 National Security Establishment.
00:47:34.200 I don't know about you.
00:47:35.860 I'm for non-corrupt actors, you know, to be in our government, corrupt actors to be nowhere in our government.
00:47:45.480 Trump in his last turn had a fraught relationship with much of his senior military leadership, including now retired General Mark Milley,
00:47:53.360 who took steps to limit Trump's ability to use nuclear weapons while he was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
00:48:02.000 First of all, let me just say this.
00:48:03.360 If you are worried at all about Donald Trump using nuclear weapons, you haven't heard a thing he said.
00:48:10.580 Second, you need to read Nuclear War by what's her name, Stu?
00:48:18.860 Annie Jacobson.
00:48:20.040 You need to read Nuclear War by Annie Jacobson.
00:48:24.260 It is terrifying.
00:48:25.860 Donald Trump has read it.
00:48:27.860 Donald Trump knows it inside and out.
00:48:30.440 Donald Trump has said over and over and over again, why is no one talking about the use of nuclear weapons?
00:48:36.260 That can never happen.
00:48:38.440 There's no way to win, and it will destroy all life on the planet.
00:48:43.340 He gets the use of nuclear weapons.
00:48:46.040 So, why is the Pentagon trying to limit his use of nuclear weapons?
00:48:51.560 If he ever asks for the football, it is your constitutional duty to give it to him.
00:48:59.340 Now, if you think he's impaired, that's when the 25th Amendment comes in.
00:49:03.960 But no one, this is a civilian-run military.
00:49:09.920 You don't have the right to subvert the President of the United States.
00:49:16.480 That's not honoring the Constitution.
00:49:19.220 There's no right for you to do that.
00:49:21.560 None.
00:49:22.400 None.
00:49:22.960 The Cabinet can, but you can't.
00:49:28.920 In fact, in Annie Jacobson's book, it's a little terrifying because you realize no man can make this decision in six minutes.
00:49:39.060 And you actually only have about two once you have all the information.
00:49:42.540 There's nobody that could make this decision wisely and completely.
00:49:49.080 Nobody.
00:49:50.640 I mean, this is what Gorbachev and Reagan came to.
00:49:53.800 They both actually looked at it, both talked about it, and said that we can never fight this because we'll both lose.
00:50:00.180 Everybody will lose.
00:50:02.320 And that's where Donald Trump is.
00:50:04.020 So, thank you, Mark Milley, for limiting Trump's ability to use nuclear weapons.
00:50:12.360 God.
00:50:13.580 The President-elect, meanwhile, has repeatedly called U.S. military generals woke, weak, and ineffective leaders.
00:50:20.180 Do you disagree with any of that?
00:50:23.080 The Pentagon leadership, woke, weak, and ineffective leaders.
00:50:29.500 Now, Glenn, I want ineffective leaders.
00:50:32.640 Especially woke ones.
00:50:34.060 I want woke.
00:50:35.120 It's obvious.
00:50:35.940 These are things that are not always easy to figure out, right?
00:50:39.420 But if you know who they are, you get them out of there immediately.
00:50:42.200 Yeah, it's pretty easy to figure out with the string of successes they've given us here in the last four years.
00:50:47.400 Right.
00:50:47.760 You just got to find people, the right people to replace them.
00:50:49.900 Correct.
00:50:50.220 Not always easy.
00:50:51.200 And by the way.
00:50:51.680 Certainly the goal you should be inspired to.
00:50:53.400 They're saying you can't let him.
00:50:54.620 You can't let him do this to the military.
00:50:56.960 Excuse me.
00:50:58.160 What did Biden do the first few days in office?
00:51:02.120 He told the military to stand down worldwide.
00:51:07.200 He shut them down so they could do a witch hunt, so they could find out who's naughty, who's nice, who's voted for Trump, who says popular things about Trump, and who says who's on our side.
00:51:21.560 And they fired those people.
00:51:23.520 Yeah, and there's some questions on some of the stuff as to how far executive power reaches.
00:51:28.400 The commander-in-chief of the military indicates he has the right to do these types of things.
00:51:32.460 Yes.
00:51:32.760 Pretty clearly.
00:51:33.180 And I'm sorry, the mandate that he just got also tells us he has the right to do this.
00:51:40.120 Now, I'm not for him getting a bunch of zombies in there going, yes, Donald Trump.
00:51:45.700 That's not what he's looking for.
00:51:47.380 That's not what I'm looking for.
00:51:49.320 Remember, this is a guy who doesn't want war.
00:51:52.920 My gosh.
00:51:54.720 The left should be all for this guy.
00:51:56.780 Anyway, we're all preparing and planning for the worst-case scenario, but the reality is we don't know how this is going to play out yet.
00:52:06.120 They are wargaming the next president of the United States.
00:52:13.160 Think about that.
00:52:15.500 The Pentagon is having secret meetings wargaming what they'll do against Donald Trump.
00:52:22.780 That, just in and of itself, all of those people should be fired.
00:52:29.380 Troops are compelled by law to disobey unlawful orders.
00:52:33.120 Yes.
00:52:34.300 I remind the troops all the time.
00:52:36.040 Every time I'm with troops, I always say, thank you for your service, blah, blah, blah.
00:52:39.540 Remember, you serve the Constitution.
00:52:43.040 Not a man, the Constitution.
00:52:45.480 And I stand by that today, even with Donald Trump getting in.
00:52:48.680 Of course.
00:52:48.700 You honor the Constitution.
00:52:52.600 Troops are compelled by law to disobey, but the question is, what happens then?
00:52:57.120 Do we see resignations from senior military leaders, or will they view that as abandoning their people?
00:53:03.800 I don't think your people.
00:53:05.660 Nobody that I know that's down the fighting men and women, nobody thinks that the people at the very top are their people.
00:53:15.140 They just don't.
00:53:16.480 Those are career.
00:53:17.320 They're politicians in military outfits.
00:53:21.180 That's all they are.
00:53:22.580 That's all they are.
00:53:23.460 And they know it.
00:53:25.940 Let's see.
00:53:26.540 Have we seen Bitcoin this morning?
00:53:28.280 What is Bitcoin up to?
00:53:29.480 Last I saw it was $82,000.
00:53:32.180 Sorry, my apologies.
00:53:34.420 $83,000.
00:53:36.980 Wow.
00:53:38.460 $83,000.
00:53:39.460 By the way, you could have bought it for about $3,000 or $4,000 during the beginning of COVID.
00:53:48.540 So, I remember, Glenn, the time when this office was buzzing constantly with what wound up being a, quote-unquote, bubble of $19,000.
00:53:59.600 And that was in 2017.
00:54:01.440 CNN is not going to come back.
00:54:02.880 It's never going to get higher than that.
00:54:04.380 You look at the entire chart of Bitcoin now and that little, that bubble that was end, you know, that was the game ender.
00:54:10.200 This is it.
00:54:11.160 It's popped.
00:54:11.940 It's going to zero.
00:54:12.800 So, every freaking media institution had a hundred articles about how it was over.
00:54:19.060 And then it rose again and you had the FTX situation happen.
00:54:23.760 And again, it was all over and we had to read article after article after article.
00:54:27.540 Now, $83,000.
00:54:30.480 Every single person in history that bought Bitcoin and has held onto it is now in the green.
00:54:37.760 By the way, January 23rd of this year, it was $38,505.
00:54:45.740 Gosh, this year.
00:54:47.020 This year, $38,505.
00:54:50.060 Incredible.
00:54:50.920 I mean, it is, I mean, and you know what?
00:54:54.620 You know what this is?
00:54:56.320 The government of the United States under Donald Trump, him saying, I'm not going to be hostile to you.
00:55:02.280 I won't be hostile.
00:55:03.680 Yep.
00:55:04.140 I'm not going to try to put you out of business.
00:55:06.180 In fact, the government is going to now get hostile on the idea of a Fed coin.
00:55:11.780 We're not going to let the Federal Reserve do a currency.
00:55:16.860 No.
00:55:17.880 No more.
00:55:18.920 No more.
00:55:19.340 There's no Fed coin that is going to happen.
00:55:21.800 And he wants a constitutional amendment, but he'll at least pass laws that say they cannot do that.
00:55:29.040 That's what's giving people confidence.
00:55:31.860 It's not the free market.
00:55:33.420 It's the fact that the free market is there's hope that it actually works now that people can buy what they want to buy and not fear the government coming in and shutting it all down.
00:55:45.580 Yeah, and Trump has talked about when the U.S. government comes in contact with Bitcoin, it doesn't just pump it out to the market when they have about 200,000.
00:55:55.940 Why would they do that?
00:55:57.000 Right.
00:55:57.640 Hold it.
00:55:58.600 Have a Bitcoin reserve.
00:56:00.600 Certainly, El Salvador has done this to great effect.
00:56:03.460 We should take, we spend billions of dollars and we don't, I mean, we just, you know, hand out, hey, I just found the $6 billion check in my, I left it in my suit, sent it out to dry cleaning.
00:56:17.380 They just pinned it to my suit.
00:56:19.100 So I didn't forget I had $6 billion here.
00:56:22.500 Why don't you take that for your little war?
00:56:25.180 What?
00:56:25.780 I know.
00:56:26.380 Okay, we find that money, why have we not taken $10 billion and just funneled it all into Bitcoin and put it in the treasury?
00:56:34.760 Why are we taking $50 billion and then hold it?
00:56:39.820 We have $12 billion, actually, I should say with the new prices, $16 billion of Bitcoin currently in U.S. possession from various investigations, Silk Road being one of the big ones, but various investigations.
00:56:50.780 And we come in contact with it often.
00:56:52.240 When there's an investigation, some drug dealer has some Bitcoin, comes into the U.S. possession.
00:56:56.220 We should buy it.
00:56:57.300 Trump is just saying, hold it.
00:56:59.560 The current policy of the U.S. is just when the investigation is finally wrapped up to just dump it into the market.
00:57:05.880 There's no reason to do that.
00:57:07.460 Why not hold it?
00:57:09.220 And, you know, this is the type of thing that one of the reasons why we were, we talked about this so long ago, Glenn, was because it undermines the ability for the U.S. government to constantly print cash forever.
00:57:22.560 Right?
00:57:23.060 It undermines that.
00:57:24.120 And if you are, if you are worried about that in the future, having a policy where you can offset it a little bit is a good thing.
00:57:31.720 Good thing.
00:57:32.100 Good positive thing.
00:57:33.580 You want to keep that out of, you don't want to constantly weaken yourself.
00:57:37.360 This is a way to strengthen your foundations.
00:57:39.720 And, of course, so far, people like Elizabeth Warren have been influencing that policy.
00:57:44.360 Now, the Democrats did come around a little bit to this.
00:57:46.380 They really, I guess, I don't know if they wanted crypto money.
00:57:48.960 They actually, some of them.
00:57:50.320 I think they wanted all the money.
00:57:51.080 Well, they wanted all the money, and there's a lot in crypto.
00:57:53.580 But can you imagine how annoyed Elizabeth Warren is today?
00:57:57.800 That makes me just feel so good.
00:57:59.720 A lot of this stuff makes me happy.
00:58:00.420 It makes me feel so good.
00:58:01.820 You know what also makes me happy?
00:58:02.920 Is the fact that they spent a billion dollars, and now they're 20 million in debt, her campaign?
00:58:12.900 How is that possible?
00:58:13.640 How is it possible?
00:58:14.540 How is it possible?
00:58:14.980 My favorite part of this, Glenn, my favorite part of this, is picturing the maxed out Kamala Harris donor.
00:58:23.880 Someone's like, you know what, democracy's on the line, Hitler's coming into office, I'm putting my full $3,500 behind Kamala Harris, taking that step.
00:58:35.840 You're a maxed out donor.
00:58:36.980 You're going to get campaign literature to the end of time from every candidate from now on, but you're taking that stand.
00:58:43.040 And you know what you accomplished?
00:58:44.860 You paid for one one hundredth of the set that she used to film a sex podcast appearance.
00:58:55.500 That was what your big moment of becoming a maxed out donor paid for like one letter in the sign behind her as she filmed a sex podcast.
00:59:11.240 Why would she?
00:59:12.120 Oh, I love it.
00:59:12.820 Why did they build the set for the sex podcast?
00:59:17.440 Why would they do that?
00:59:18.800 Because she wanted to do it in a hotel, apparently.
00:59:21.080 Now, this is something that people do, as you know.
00:59:23.640 Like, sometimes you want to go get a separate studio.
00:59:27.820 You don't want to go across town with all your people.
00:59:30.280 You don't ever spend that kind of money.
00:59:31.940 No.
00:59:32.800 Ever.
00:59:33.260 Nobody does that.
00:59:34.340 No.
00:59:34.840 They gave Harpo a million dollars.
00:59:39.980 Did you know that?
00:59:40.520 Yes.
00:59:40.860 A million dollars to Harpo.
00:59:42.720 That's Oprah's production company.
00:59:44.920 Yeah.
00:59:45.240 Because she produced for some of these events, apparently.
00:59:47.940 Which is great.
00:59:48.820 Because, you know, I've produced interviews with him.
00:59:53.020 With Trump, we didn't get paid.
00:59:55.180 In fact, I would feel dirty if I had gotten paid for that.
00:59:59.220 Especially if it was something important to you.
01:00:01.060 Yeah.
01:00:01.420 Right?
01:00:01.780 Like, if you were saving democracy from Hitler.
01:00:04.620 Right.
01:00:04.880 Like, you'd say, actually, we're donating all of our time.
01:00:07.900 If I'm endorsing a candidate like Donald Trump, I mean, this, while I didn't make a financial contribution, the money that this damn election cost me is I bleed.
01:00:25.800 It's I bleed.
01:00:27.880 Oh, yeah.
01:00:28.320 But that was my, and that was my choice.
01:00:30.780 I was like, well, you know, if I want it done, I'm going to have to pay for it.
01:00:34.880 Let's go.
01:00:35.520 Yeah.
01:00:35.680 Let's do it.
01:00:36.640 None of these people did.
01:00:38.440 I know.
01:00:38.880 Beyonce.
01:00:39.280 I love it.
01:00:40.380 Bruce Springsteen.
01:00:41.280 Oh, I love it.
01:00:41.400 They all made a million dollars for walking on the stage.
01:00:44.400 I love it so much.
01:00:45.660 I can't even describe how much I love the fact that these celebrities bilked this campaign out of all this money.
01:00:52.760 I love it.
01:00:54.100 They are so shallow.
01:00:54.840 Keep doing it.
01:00:56.160 You know, there was a clip going around, which was a, I don't know, seven or eight minute synopsis edited down of MSNBC's election night, which was really fun to watch.
01:01:07.480 I have to watch that.
01:01:08.520 Because there's this incredible optimism.
01:01:09.840 I will.
01:01:10.380 Incredible optimism at the beginning.
01:01:11.640 Rachel Maddow, by the way, Rachel Maddow is the anchor of their election coverage, apparently.
01:01:19.180 It's incredible.
01:01:20.520 Like, she is a obvious conspiracy theorist.
01:01:23.820 At the very least, you could say she's a hardcore liberal nutjob.
01:01:28.700 Like, that is, and it's not, no journalist.
01:01:31.100 Imagine me if I would have anchored the election night for Fox.
01:01:34.700 Right.
01:01:35.020 Like, they would have gone crazy.
01:01:36.500 They put Bret Baier in that role, right?
01:01:38.320 Like, so anyway, they're doing this whole thing.
01:01:41.980 And at one point, Joy Reid goes on this rant about how it was a perfect, flawless campaign that she actually ran the podcast.
01:01:48.000 And she goes, her evidence for this is she has Beyonce.
01:01:51.380 She has Taylor Swift.
01:01:52.860 She has the Swifties and the Beehive.
01:01:56.640 Like, that's it.
01:01:57.320 She just stops.
01:01:58.400 Like, that's the perfect campaign.
01:02:00.360 The Swifties and the Beehive.
01:02:02.100 Hang on just a second.
01:02:03.040 Oh, it's so good.
01:02:03.540 Let me tell you about our sponsor.
01:02:04.700 It's Mantis X.
01:02:06.240 A really great feeling is being confident in your gun usage.
01:02:13.600 Being able to pull out your gun if you needed to.
01:02:17.580 Knowing that you are confident that you're actually going to hit what you're aiming at.
01:02:21.900 And that you know how to use your gun.
01:02:23.860 Well, that requires a lot of practice.
01:02:26.460 And that can get expensive if you're having to use up ammunition all the time to go to the shooting range.
01:02:30.440 But it is it's worth it to show off to the guys.
01:02:34.040 You know, I know it's expensive.
01:02:34.960 But once in a while, you just got to go out and say, hey, Stu, let's go shooting.
01:02:39.360 Anyway, good news is with Mantis X, you can cut out a lot of the expense and the time at the gun range as well.

01:03:23.460 Station I.D.
01:03:27.720 Oh, my gosh, we have we have so much to go over today.
01:03:37.800 Did you see Saturday Night Live?
01:03:39.900 I did see a couple of the pieces from it.
01:03:43.500 I want to compare and contrast Saturday Night Live when we come back.
01:03:48.060 OK.
01:03:48.260 OK, because it's a little different than 2016.
01:03:54.620 And I think this difference is very telling.
01:04:00.440 It's I'm really interested in hearing your take on this because I watched it and I watched the beginning of the sketch and we'll go into the details.
01:04:11.220 But it starts off very serious.
01:04:12.920 And I was like, oh, my God, they're going to do this again.
01:04:15.340 They're going to do this Hillary Clinton thing again where they like and they I think it's better.
01:04:20.880 Right.
01:04:21.200 I think their take is better this time.
01:04:22.820 I do, too.
01:04:23.380 I hesitate to say something positive here, but I know.
01:04:26.400 I know.
01:04:27.080 It was better.
01:04:27.900 And they had Bill Burr on as well.
01:04:29.740 Yeah.
01:04:30.300 And who is very, very, very funny.
01:04:33.200 And he hit both sides.
01:04:34.920 Yeah.
01:04:35.240 He hit both sides.
01:04:36.200 It was fine.
01:04:36.300 It was totally fine.
01:04:38.180 And I looked at my wife.
01:04:39.600 I was watching a, you know, the clip of it.
01:04:43.160 And I looked at my wife and I said, comedy's back.
01:04:46.060 Welcome.
01:04:47.060 Just took this election.
01:04:48.440 Comedy is back.
01:04:50.180 Felt good.
01:04:50.980 All right.

01:05:17.740 You know, I said I could come up with a million ways this thing goes wrong.
01:05:20.440 I can come up with one where it goes right.
01:05:22.980 And that was God.
01:05:24.020 It was a miracle last week.
01:05:26.840 But even this miracle doesn't fix everything overnight.
01:05:30.140 And if you're going through a rough spot financially, the best thing you can do is have somebody on your side.
01:05:35.140 And not just anybody, but somebody who's there to help you dig your way out and knows how to do it.
01:05:40.780 There's a salary-based mortgage consultant at American Financing waiting on the other end of the phone so you can call and they can be that person for you.

01:06:28.240 The year was 2016.
01:06:43.920 The election has just been lost to Donald J. Trump.
01:06:51.200 Hillary Clinton didn't even show up.
01:06:53.380 I mean, this is exactly the same thing.
01:06:55.320 She left her supporters in the lurch.
01:06:58.200 Then Saturday, Saturday Night Live comes on, and this is their opening sketch.
01:07:11.240 I heard there was a secret chord that David played, and it pleased the Lord.
01:07:19.660 But you don't really care for me, do you?
01:07:22.640 Okay, so far no laughs.
01:07:25.320 Well, it goes like this.
01:07:29.340 That's McKenna, whatever her name is.
01:07:31.580 Dressed as Hillary Clinton.
01:07:36.060 Looking like Hillary Clinton.
01:07:38.760 Just playing the piano.
01:07:42.380 I mean, and it goes on.
01:07:43.860 Okay, you can stop.
01:07:45.080 There's no humor to it at all.
01:07:46.700 And then they're like, from New York.
01:07:48.220 It's Saturday night.
01:07:49.240 What is that?
01:07:51.000 All right, this is what they did this time.
01:07:54.220 To many people, including many people watching this show right now, the results were shocking
01:07:59.680 and even horrifying.
01:08:02.320 Donald Trump, who tried to forcibly overturn the results of the last election, was returned
01:08:07.000 to office by an overwhelming majority.
01:08:09.420 This is the same Donald Trump who openly called for vengeance against his political enemies.
01:08:14.440 And that is why we at SNL would like to say to Donald Trump, we have been with you all
01:08:21.680 along.
01:08:23.480 We have never wavered in our support of you.
01:08:27.460 Even when others doubted you.
01:08:30.800 Every single person on this stage believed in you.
01:08:34.520 Every single person on this stage voted for you.
01:08:38.580 Because we see ourselves in you.
01:08:40.960 We look at you and think, that's me.
01:08:45.100 That's the man I want my future children to look up to.
01:08:48.240 And Mr. Trump, your honor, we know that you say things that are controversial sometimes,
01:08:55.900 but really, you're just speaking the truth.
01:08:58.120 And I hate how the lamestream media, Michael Che, tries to spin it to make you look foolish.
01:09:05.540 So if you're keeping some sort of list of your enemies, then we should not be on that list.
01:09:13.600 I mean, it's not the greatest sketch of all time, but at least they attempted to have fun with it.
01:09:20.580 Some humor.
01:09:21.100 Right.
01:09:21.500 Yeah.
01:09:21.800 At least it wasn't coming out and playing the piano in a dirge.
01:09:25.480 Yeah.
01:09:25.660 You know, that was a funeral.
01:09:27.100 Yeah.
01:09:27.400 It was a funeral.
01:09:28.080 And that's how they felt.
01:09:28.860 So then Bill Burr came out, and he was funny as usual, and hit both sides, which, fine.
01:09:38.680 I'm cool.
01:09:39.240 I'm totally cool with.
01:09:40.500 I don't care if you hit both sides.
01:09:42.720 It's why the Simpsons, how do they not know this?
01:09:45.320 This is why the Simpsons are so popular, because you know if they're hitting one side, they're
01:09:50.700 going to hit the other just as hard.
01:09:53.160 Hello?
01:09:54.420 Is anybody listening?
01:09:56.180 So maybe comedy is back.
01:09:57.680 Yeah, because it seems like in 2016, they felt, it seemed like this once-in-a-lifetime mistake
01:10:04.400 to them.
01:10:05.180 Right.
01:10:05.380 Like, this is, I can't believe this happened.
01:10:08.520 And I think, like, when he gets elected a second time, you just kind of have to be
01:10:13.180 like, oh, it's kind of just like your reality.
01:10:16.480 Like, whatever world you think exists doesn't exist.
01:10:19.460 The 20s, the, whatever world an SNL comedian is surrounded by on a daily basis is not a real
01:10:26.700 world.
01:10:27.280 No.
01:10:27.960 It's a very small part of a real world.
01:10:30.400 Yeah.
01:10:31.000 But it is not real.
01:10:31.940 It's not real life.
01:10:33.020 Well.
01:10:33.460 Maybe they're understanding that a little bit.
01:10:35.260 Well, I mean, it's very real.
01:10:36.540 Once you have women saying they're not, they're, they're not gonna, they're not gonna have sex
01:10:40.920 with men for four years now.
01:10:43.120 Yeah.
01:10:43.800 Yeah.
01:10:44.180 Then it gets real fast, Stu.
01:10:46.100 Does it?
01:10:46.500 It gets real fast.
01:10:47.300 Yeah.
01:10:47.720 Yeah.
01:10:48.640 Yeah.
01:10:49.580 I want to know, is anyone in this listening audience, is your husband or wife saying that
01:10:56.880 to you?
01:10:58.180 I'd like to talk to you.
01:11:00.000 I can't imagine.
01:11:03.300 Can you?
01:11:04.340 No.
01:11:04.940 No.
01:11:06.060 That's not, I feel like we do get into this world where we highlight the craziest people
01:11:10.880 on the internet.
01:11:11.620 Yeah.
01:11:11.840 And make them into stories.
01:11:12.920 And like, I think that's only insane people are doing that, right?
01:11:16.900 Hang on just a second.
01:11:18.440 We have, wow.
01:11:19.660 Candy is on the phone.
01:11:21.940 Hello, Candy.
01:11:23.460 Hello, Glenn.
01:11:25.800 Candy?
01:11:26.340 Glenn, how are you?
01:11:27.320 I'm good.
01:11:27.940 How are you?
01:11:28.760 I'm very, very well.
01:11:30.460 And I heard you ask for people who have refused to have sex after this Trump, this, this Trump
01:11:39.180 Hitler man has been elected or selected to be president of the United States.
01:11:46.400 Okay, so are you married, Candy?
01:11:48.780 I am not.
01:11:49.420 You're not.
01:11:50.300 Surprise.
01:11:51.480 And so you've sworn off sex.
01:11:54.420 I have.
01:11:55.320 I've sworn off sex.
01:11:56.880 No more candy for you.
01:11:58.540 None of my sweet treats coming your way.
01:12:05.060 That's good.
01:12:07.440 Yeah.
01:12:07.940 Yeah.
01:12:08.220 I mean, people, you know, you people look at me all the time.
01:12:12.040 I see them look at me up and down as I walk down the street.
01:12:15.460 I bet.
01:12:16.260 And they're seeing, they're looking at it and saying, look at that.
01:12:19.000 Look at that thing.
01:12:20.140 And I see, I know what they mean.
01:12:22.100 Yeah.
01:12:22.840 Yeah.
01:12:23.040 It's, you know, a lot of times they'll walk up to me and they'll say, oh yeah, look at,
01:12:28.940 look at that.
01:12:30.380 And then they'll say, they'll say, hey baby.
01:12:35.120 And then they'll walk away in the other direction quickly.
01:12:40.040 Right.
01:12:40.520 And I take that as they just are so turned on.
01:12:43.920 Yeah.
01:12:44.260 They can't resist.
01:12:45.440 They don't want to embarrass themselves.
01:12:47.400 So you're, so because of Trump, you're not, you've, you've started not having sex with
01:12:51.860 anyone.
01:12:51.980 Well, I've upped, I've upped my game.
01:12:54.160 What do you mean you've upped your game?
01:12:55.480 Because of Trump.
01:12:57.040 What do you mean you've upped your game?
01:12:58.940 Well, I've, I, I've been sexless since 1992 ish.
01:13:05.660 1992 ish.
01:13:07.360 Yeah.
01:13:07.860 Well, let's see.
01:13:08.680 It was 80.
01:13:09.360 Yeah.
01:13:09.560 Well, it was more like night.
01:13:12.160 Well, 92 is when I stopped having sex, but that was because people didn't want to have
01:13:16.120 sex with me at that time.
01:13:17.620 But I gave it all up.
01:13:19.140 I, I withheld it from the men starting in about 1995.
01:13:23.740 So Candy, you know how people say that men are only interested in sex.
01:13:28.280 Oh yeah.
01:13:29.100 Yeah.
01:13:29.520 Yeah.
01:13:30.140 And that makes women just objects.
01:13:34.380 Well, that's, that's what they say.
01:13:36.000 Yeah.
01:13:36.220 Yeah.
01:13:36.460 That's what they say.
01:13:37.200 Well, wouldn't you be kind of confirming that by holding sex back?
01:13:42.260 Isn't that, isn't that you saying I'm nothing but a sex object?
01:13:45.060 I'm just acknowledging the reality.
01:13:46.820 People want me, they want, they want me sexually, Glenn.
01:13:53.020 Have you seen some of the ladies online that are, that are, uh...
01:13:57.680 I've seen, oh yeah, they're very, very attractive.
01:14:00.180 I mean, look, I'm not, I won't, I'm not going to say I'm a perfect 10.
01:14:03.740 Right.
01:14:04.280 What are you?
01:14:04.820 I'm more like an 8.
01:14:06.280 You're an 8?
01:14:06.860 5 out of a 100, so...
01:14:08.180 Really?
01:14:08.580 I think that...
01:14:10.100 How are you scoring the 8?
01:14:12.680 8 out of a 100, just like the normal scoring.
01:14:15.780 8 out of a 100?
01:14:16.960 Scoring.
01:14:19.140 I didn't realize there was 92 other choices.
01:14:23.780 Oh yeah.
01:14:24.580 Oh yeah.
01:14:25.000 There's a lot of them up there.
01:14:25.920 Wow.
01:14:26.400 Okay.
01:14:26.540 I said I'm not going to give you this.
01:14:28.320 Ever since they nominated that hate monger.
01:14:31.340 Right.
01:14:31.900 Bob Dole.
01:14:34.000 Wait.
01:14:34.500 I was like, I'm out.
01:14:35.380 You're Bob Dole.
01:14:36.500 No more.
01:14:37.060 Right.
01:14:37.960 No more sex for you.
01:14:39.840 Right, because Bob Dole.
01:14:41.260 This is a Dole-related protest that I will not give up on.
01:14:47.920 Now this isn't just happening because you're hideously ugly.
01:14:52.480 How dare you.
01:14:53.480 I know, I'm sorry.
01:14:55.120 I'm only, I'm just asking.
01:14:56.760 You should see what I'm wearing right now.
01:14:58.540 Do you want to hear?
01:14:59.860 Not really.
01:15:02.060 That's good, because I think it would repulse the audience.
01:15:05.080 We'd have no listeners to that.
01:15:07.380 So I'll hold it back.
01:15:09.160 Okay.
01:15:09.740 All right.
01:15:10.100 I'll hold it back.
01:15:11.000 All right.
01:15:11.100 I will say there's some very, this velvet.
01:15:15.760 I'm wearing some velvet.
01:15:17.180 You're wearing velvet.
01:15:18.240 Red velvet.
01:15:19.020 Red velvet.
01:15:21.340 What I'm saying is I'm currently covered in cake.
01:15:24.400 That's what I'm saying to you.
01:15:25.620 That's so stupid.
01:15:37.420 Okay.
01:15:38.640 It's good that we have a good diverse audience, and that's what's, this is important in this
01:15:42.660 show.
01:15:43.040 You know?

01:17:29.680 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:17:31.380 We're very glad you're here.
01:17:32.700 Happy Veterans Day.
01:17:33.600 If you're a veteran, thank you.
01:17:35.440 Thank you for everything that you have done for us and our freedom.
01:17:39.500 Thank you for the fight that you fought.
01:17:43.700 And everything happens for a reason.
01:17:47.560 There's a reason.
01:17:49.260 You fought and came home with all of those skills.
01:17:53.740 Bless you and thank you.
01:17:56.120 All right.
01:17:56.680 Let me play this.
01:17:59.900 This is from a CNN appearance.
01:18:02.680 This is the former communications director for Kamala Harris.
01:18:08.280 Cut one.
01:18:09.600 Is looking for.
01:18:10.400 That is my question.
01:18:11.140 I'll start with you.
01:18:11.980 Joe Biden has been a phenomenal president.
01:18:13.520 He's lived up to so many of the promises he's made.
01:18:15.300 There's one promise left that he could fulfill being a transitional figure.
01:18:18.500 He could resign the presidency in the next 30 days.
01:18:21.320 Make Kamala Harris the president of the United States.
01:18:23.020 It would absolve her from being able to have to from having to oversee the January 6th transition, right, of her own defeat.
01:18:30.620 And it would make sure that it would dominate the news at a point where Democrats have to learn drama and transparency and doing things that the public want to see is the time.
01:18:41.960 This is the moment for us to change the entire perspective of how Democrats.
01:18:45.560 This is now.
01:18:47.340 What?
01:18:48.080 I don't understand.
01:18:50.120 He said because then she avoids the transition.
01:18:53.500 So she's not certifying the results on January 6th.
01:18:56.380 Someone else would.
01:18:57.640 But, of course, we wouldn't have.
01:18:58.880 Yes, she'd have to pick a VP.
01:19:00.980 Yeah, I guess.
01:19:02.100 And that period, that whole situation's bizarre.
01:19:04.880 But then also that because it creates drama, it's going to people are going to be talking about it.
01:19:09.300 Like what?
01:19:10.000 I mean, it would, I will say, be the perfect end.
01:19:14.320 It would be.
01:19:14.580 To the Kamala Harris era.
01:19:17.300 She's now gifted not only the vice presidency and the nomination, but also gifted the presidency.
01:19:23.120 Like that should be how her story ends.
01:19:25.540 Well, not ends because I expect her to win the Nobel Prize.
01:19:28.420 If she becomes president, she needs to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
01:19:32.320 That's true.
01:19:32.680 You know what I mean?
01:19:33.260 Agreed.
01:19:33.700 But how empty is that?
01:19:35.380 You know, she'd be the first female black president.
01:19:37.540 Not really.
01:19:38.920 Not really.
01:19:39.700 Not one that anybody voted for.
01:19:41.980 There's no merit in that.
01:19:44.180 And she oversaw what?
01:19:46.680 30 days?
01:19:47.660 Yeah.
01:19:47.940 Because I think you could see, you know, I've played with this theory a little bit myself.
01:19:52.560 Like you could see where like they could claim they'd have the first win a black female.
01:19:57.420 But like, I don't think it means anything.
01:19:59.000 Right.
01:19:59.300 Like a couple of times when there have been senators that have stepped down.
01:20:02.880 Republicans have, you know, nominated figures or even Democrats nominated figures.
01:20:08.540 And they're like, oh, well, this person is the X, you know, first, second, third black nominee to this position.
01:20:14.840 Like no one, you don't get credit for that.
01:20:18.300 People will see through.
01:20:19.320 It's like it's like the the nomination for the first chief of staff in the White House being a woman.
01:20:26.680 Yeah.
01:20:27.040 Donald Trump just made that.
01:20:28.180 Nobody cares.
01:20:29.760 Now, that's a real one, though.
01:20:30.820 That's a real one.
01:20:31.480 That's not.
01:20:31.780 No, I know.
01:20:32.220 But nobody cares.
01:20:32.960 A ceremonial situation.
01:20:34.140 I know.
01:20:34.440 But nobody cares.
01:20:36.540 Yeah.
01:20:36.900 I mean, I think some people might care when it's real, but it's not real.
01:20:41.420 Like this is so like this would be a perfect ending to the idea that the Democrats are the party of democracy.
01:20:48.120 Wouldn't it?
01:20:48.660 I kind of want them to do it just for that reason.
01:20:51.860 I will say my wife has purchased many, many pieces of merchandise that say 45, 47, which would ruin all of that because he would be the 48th president when he takes office.
01:21:02.420 Wouldn't that be amazing?
01:21:03.080 It would screw all of us up if you happen to buy that stuff.
01:21:06.260 Well, if you remember the Ezra Eagle prophecy thing, we did a show on that a few, what, a couple of months ago, maybe.
01:21:14.560 She, he has to step down or be removed from office for some reason or another, and she would have to take over for that even to be a possibility.
01:21:25.880 Okay, yeah, yeah.
01:21:27.880 So all of the things so far have led you to believe, oh, yeah, that's the Ezra is Eagle from the Apocrypha.
01:21:36.500 It's that, you know, that scripture from the Apocrypha.
01:21:38.900 It looks like a fulfillment, but it's not until it's all been fulfilled.
01:21:42.940 And the next thing that has to happen is Joe Biden has to serve less, even if it's by a day, less time in office than Donald Trump did.
01:21:56.520 He served his whole term.
01:21:58.100 So if he, you know, gets a head cold and is removed from office, you know, two days before, that's another step to the prophecy.
01:22:07.100 But if he goes all the way, then that's just, that's all bunk.
01:22:10.280 Like, hmm, I mean, there's so much riding on this.
01:22:13.660 I know, there's like, I'm fascinated to see how this, like, first you have this Trump presidency where he's going to implement all of these things.
01:22:21.840 And, and, and we're going to see, I think, good results from them.
01:22:25.960 And it's interesting, I think, going forward, too, because you have Republicans who are, obviously Trump has changed the party, right?
01:22:34.180 Changed the movement.
01:22:35.400 And there's a lot of good things that go along with that.
01:22:38.060 Maybe some of you might not like, too, but generally speaking, you look at this and you say, this is a total change, right?
01:22:43.220 This is a different, a lot of the principles are still there, but like, he's changed the direction of the party.
01:22:49.960 And the one thing that we haven't seen yet is, can anyone else do this?
01:22:55.060 Right.
01:22:55.160 Like, is Donald Trump just a really unique person who is sort of solely capable of winning with this coalition?
01:23:03.040 I don't know.
01:23:03.520 I don't think, I mean, J.D. Vance seems like the type that could do it.
01:23:06.700 Yeah, I was going to say, I would say that just about anybody else.
01:23:11.160 Because DeSantis is good, but we saw DeSantis run, you know what I mean, against Donald Trump.
01:23:16.780 Didn't make an impact, but, you know, who's going to make an impact against Donald Trump?
01:23:20.540 Right, it could be that he wins next time.
01:23:22.460 But I think J.D. Vance might be a guy who could pull that off.
01:23:27.060 He is so good, and yet still all out there.
01:23:31.280 I mean, the guy has a beard.
01:23:33.440 Who in office has had a beard since, like, you know, they had those big, long beards?
01:23:38.880 Maybe he should bring that back.
01:23:40.100 He should bring that back.
01:23:41.160 Go to, like, ZZ Toplin.
01:23:42.160 Yeah, yeah.
01:23:46.580 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:23:48.120 Let me talk to you about Jace Medical.
01:23:50.280 Trump is going to be back in office, and excellent news for the country.
01:23:54.380 But in this transition period, where there will be changes in law and policies, they have far-reaching effects.
01:24:01.580 Some of them could impact your ability to access and afford the medications that you might need.
01:24:06.800 You know, China makes about 80% of everything that we take in generic medication.
01:24:13.700 Jace Case is a personalized emergency kit that contains essential antibiotics and medications that treat the most common and deadly bacterial infections.
01:24:21.040 It provides five life-saving antibiotics for the emergency use.
01:24:26.180 You just fill out a simple form online, and you'll have it just in case you need it.
01:24:30.000 Also, Jace just launched an all-new compounded version of Ivermectin for only $30 as an add-on to the Jace case.
01:24:38.620 So, go to Jace.com, enter the promo code BECK at checkout for a discount on your order.
01:24:43.220 That's promo code BECK at J-A-S-E dot com.
01:24:48.200 All right, last hour of the program, next.
01:24:56.100 15 seconds.
01:25:00.000 We'll see you next time.
01:25:30.000 We'll see you next time.
01:25:59.980 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:26:11.060 Hello, America.
01:26:12.000 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:26:13.960 A lot to talk about.
01:26:15.160 A lot happened over the weekend.
01:26:16.320 We go there in 60 seconds.
01:26:17.620 First, let me tell you about my Patriot Supply.
01:26:19.900 We reached the point where you've got to take a moment.
01:26:22.740 Put your hands on your knees.
01:26:23.820 Stare at the ground.
01:26:24.480 Just breathe for a minute.
01:26:25.860 Take a deep breath.
01:26:26.940 Let out a huge sigh of relief.
01:26:28.260 It feels good, doesn't it?
01:26:29.640 We didn't burn the country down.
01:26:32.160 I mean, yeah.
01:26:33.480 Now, don't lose that feeling of relief.
01:26:36.840 Also know there are preparations that are being made by the other side that we have to be ready.
01:26:42.260 You have to be ready for anything.
01:26:44.040 Still useful.
01:26:45.380 Life is still full of surprises.
01:26:47.900 Storing emergency food in your home is the right thing to do.
01:26:51.000 We still live in crazy times.
01:26:52.680 And right now, you can get started by ordering a three-month emergency food kit from my Patriot Supply.
01:26:58.060 Each kit comes with delicious food, things like creamy stroganoff, honey wheat bread, mushroom rice pilaf.
01:27:04.120 The entire kit offers 2,000 calories a day, and it'll last in storage for up to 25 years.
01:27:10.940 So, who knows what things will look like by then.
01:27:13.760 Go to mypatriotsupply.com.
01:27:15.800 Order with your three-month emergency food kit from my Patriot Supply.
01:27:20.000 That's mypatriotsupply.com.
01:27:24.920 All right, Mr. Stubry Gear.
01:27:27.280 Welcome to the program, sir.
01:27:28.680 How much have you spent time this weekend just celebrating?
01:27:33.400 Like, even if it was subtle, mental celebrations, a little bit of enjoyment.
01:27:39.420 Yeah, quite a bit.
01:27:40.360 Realizing the work is still to come.
01:27:42.380 Yeah, quite a bit.
01:27:43.060 Tanya and I, we had our first weekend together with nothing happening our weekend since maybe June.
01:27:50.420 Really?
01:27:50.940 Yeah.
01:27:51.920 That's great.
01:27:52.600 And so, we just took the time and just, you know, once in a while, we'd just be like, it's over.
01:27:58.700 We won.
01:27:59.740 I can't believe that.
01:28:00.720 What's up with that?
01:28:01.160 It's great, right?
01:28:01.560 Yeah, it's great.
01:28:02.220 Yeah.
01:28:02.660 It's great.
01:28:03.140 I will say part of my celebration has been just watching the incredible meltdown from the other side.
01:28:10.360 It is fun.
01:28:11.220 It is.
01:28:11.620 It is fun, but it's sad.
01:28:13.060 Fun.
01:28:13.540 It's also sad because it's truly mental illness at this point.
01:28:17.900 Mental illness.
01:28:19.320 Mental illness.
01:28:20.180 Yeah.
01:28:20.680 I think that's a fair.
01:28:21.820 Yeah.
01:28:22.100 And look, I understand with the stakes, like if Trump were to have lost, if the Republicans had lost the Senate,
01:28:30.200 if things have gone the opposite way and the Democrats controlled the presidency, the House, and the Senate all at the same time,
01:28:37.940 which with the exception of the House, which isn't confirmed, it's pretty darn close to that.
01:28:41.620 And the opposite direction, like we would have been in probably at least a little bit of meltdown.
01:28:45.500 Yeah, but we wouldn't have been, we wouldn't have been in the streets going, ah!
01:28:49.460 No, no.
01:28:50.280 I mean, that's just, that's mentally ill.
01:28:53.180 Yes.
01:28:53.620 And I love it.
01:28:54.900 I want them to continue every little bit of that.
01:28:58.700 I love watching the Joy Reid stuff.
01:29:01.800 I love watching MSNBC highlights.
01:29:03.900 I, I, I, it's a guilty pleasure.
01:29:07.480 It's a guilty pleasure.
01:29:08.620 And I, I, I think it's really fun.
01:29:10.460 Like one of the things I've really enjoyed watching on, online is that the left has come up with an election denial theory already.
01:29:19.020 Are you aware of this?
01:29:20.120 Oh, yeah.
01:29:20.760 This is pretty cool.
01:29:22.260 Oh, yeah.
01:29:22.500 This is fun.
01:29:23.440 This is fun.
01:29:24.260 Okay.
01:29:24.720 Because we've been hearing nonstop, you know, sermon after sermon after sermon from the left,
01:29:33.260 talking about how democracy shall, shan't not be questioned.
01:29:37.080 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:29:37.600 You know, this whole idea that we are, um, you know, the, the, the election was not stolen.
01:29:44.880 Election integrity is unnecessary to even pursue.
01:29:48.760 How dare you?
01:29:49.620 And now they've come up with their own theory, which involves Elon Musk and involves Starlink.
01:29:57.460 Apparently, Elon Musk, I guess, using Starlink to manufacture fake votes for Donald Trump.
01:30:04.380 Oh, really?
01:30:05.260 Starlink.
01:30:06.020 Yeah.
01:30:06.580 Yeah.
01:30:06.760 The internet service.
01:30:08.440 I thought those machines were impossible to hack into.
01:30:10.740 Right.
01:30:11.280 They were until they lost.
01:30:12.780 Until they lost.
01:30:13.360 And then all of a sudden, yeah.
01:30:14.880 Now, of course, they also told us they were hackable back in 2004.
01:30:19.580 Right.
01:30:19.900 When they said the voting machines were responsible for John Kerry's loss.
01:30:23.040 And they are hackable in 2024.
01:30:25.280 They are still hackable.
01:30:26.620 No.
01:30:27.000 I mean, I would assume no electronic device is unhackable.
01:30:30.900 No.
01:30:31.040 I mean, even the most secure thing in the world is going to be hackable at some level.
01:30:35.340 But generally speaking, you know, I'm pretty sure Donald Trump won this election.
01:30:40.240 I am, too.
01:30:40.720 That's kind of how I stand on it.
01:30:42.180 Yeah.
01:30:42.300 I know it's crazy.
01:30:43.600 It wasn't close.
01:30:45.080 No.
01:30:45.520 No.
01:30:45.780 And now these people who have been telling us that we were the crazy ones this entire
01:30:51.380 time now are completely embracing this same nonsense.
01:30:55.280 Now, look, you can point out that not everybody is, right?
01:30:58.940 Like, I guess, you know, Kamala Harris did concede.
01:31:01.060 And they're trying to say that there's this, like, safe and normal transition of power, right?
01:31:07.740 This peaceful transition of power, which is something you don't brag about when you're
01:31:11.400 giving power to Adolf Hitler.
01:31:12.720 That's the one thing I can't get my arms around.
01:31:16.120 I mean, I understand the mental illness, because if you really have been convinced he is Adolf
01:31:22.720 Hitler, I mean, if we really thought Kamala was the Antichrist, I think we'd be a little,
01:31:31.700 you know, we might be screaming.
01:31:33.660 Yeah.
01:31:33.780 You know, we might be screaming.
01:31:34.680 If you really think that Adolf Hitler is coming into power, why would you want to be von
01:31:43.560 Hindenburg?
01:31:45.480 Right.
01:31:46.360 I mean, because von Hindenburg was like, yeah, I know you just violated the Constitution,
01:31:50.080 but come on in.
01:31:51.780 What do you like?
01:31:52.860 Well, I want to be called chancellor.
01:31:54.380 All right.
01:31:54.920 You're chancellor.
01:31:56.360 Why would you do that?
01:31:58.360 Why would you brag about a transition to power to a fascist dictator?
01:32:01.580 And why would you say it's okay?
01:32:03.720 I mean, it only makes sense if you actually believed he was Adolf Hitler.
01:32:08.440 Right.
01:32:08.860 That you would be, you double your game now.
01:32:11.460 Right.
01:32:11.640 You'd be like, no, no.
01:32:13.640 At the very least, you wouldn't show up to the process, the pomp and circumstance of it
01:32:21.200 all.
01:32:21.580 You wouldn't do that.
01:32:22.400 You wouldn't invite him to the White House to talk him through the transition.
01:32:26.280 You wouldn't do any of those things.
01:32:27.400 In fact, wouldn't you say, Glenn, if it really was Adolf Hitler, the much more rational response
01:32:32.140 is the one we make fun of, of Hollywood actors who say they're going to leave the country.
01:32:36.140 Yes.
01:32:36.500 If it was Adolf Hitler, that's a much more rational response, which makes you believe
01:32:41.220 that the Hollywood people, at least partially, might actually believe it.
01:32:45.520 Eh, no.
01:32:46.280 Those are not going to leave.
01:32:47.660 I don't think they're going to leave.
01:32:48.700 That's what they say every time.
01:32:50.260 I know, but some of them do leave.
01:32:51.820 Some of them go live in France.
01:32:53.200 Who?
01:32:54.020 Okay, well.
01:32:54.720 Yeah, they do.
01:32:55.160 I mean, they really do.
01:32:56.060 Yeah, but they belong there anyway.
01:32:58.200 I agree with that.
01:32:59.420 You know.
01:32:59.840 But I think that's...
01:33:00.440 I'm going to sacrifice.
01:33:02.340 I'm going to go live in a villa in Tuscany.
01:33:05.380 Oh, you're so brave.
01:33:07.100 That's a brave choice.
01:33:08.140 You're so brave.
01:33:09.040 Nice is very...
01:33:10.520 I had to do it.
01:33:11.720 I had to go to Tuscany.
01:33:13.200 I just couldn't take it here anymore.
01:33:16.000 Uh-huh.
01:33:16.120 Uh-huh.
01:33:16.620 Sure.
01:33:17.800 But I think that that, like, at least makes a little bit of sense, right?
01:33:20.980 If you think Adolf Hitler's coming into power, leaving the country is somewhat rational.
01:33:24.920 What isn't rational is to invite him into the White House, have a nice meeting with
01:33:29.020 him, and help him pick the drapes, right?
01:33:31.880 Like, that doesn't make any sense.
01:33:33.480 And that's the problem here, is everyone on Earth who thinks this through, and this is
01:33:38.140 why I left Hollywood out of this, and some of the people online, because they don't think
01:33:42.720 things true.
01:33:43.180 I think some of them actually do believe Hitler's coming.
01:33:46.680 This is my Cameron Diaz principle, which dates back to 2004, the 2004 election, when she
01:33:52.320 said on Oprah that if George W. Bush is re-elected as president, rape will be legal in this country.
01:33:58.340 Yes, yes.
01:33:58.820 Straight out.
01:33:59.760 And everyone kind of paused and looked at her, and then they were like, are we supposed
01:34:02.740 to clap at that?
01:34:03.760 I don't...
01:34:04.280 Yeah!
01:34:04.660 And then they realized, it's Cameron Diaz.
01:34:07.760 It's Cameron Diaz who cares, right?
01:34:09.160 But I think there's just a bunch of idiots, right?
01:34:11.020 There's some level of just a bunch of idiots, people who get really involved in this.
01:34:15.300 You know, there's no shortage of morons online.
01:34:17.480 Some of the stuff is just living in that world.
01:34:19.260 But, like, that's all inspired by politicians at the top, people like Joe Biden and Kamala
01:34:25.880 Harris and so many others, who 100% realize that Adolf Hitler is not getting elected.
01:34:30.880 That's not what happened here.
01:34:32.840 Donald Trump, yes, he disagrees with you on tax policy, and yeah, there will be differences.
01:34:37.580 You know, I'm not here to understate what the choice was.
01:34:41.780 It was stark, and thankfully, America made the right one.
01:34:44.760 But, like, at the end of the day, it's not Adolf Hitler here.
01:34:50.000 That's not...
01:34:50.320 It's not Adolf Hitler coming into office.
01:34:52.220 They knew that the whole time.
01:34:53.980 They acted as if they knew that the whole time.
01:34:57.160 They just said the opposite and scared the hell out of a lot of very vulnerable people.
01:35:01.920 And, you know, the worst example of this that I can think of off the top of my head is the
01:35:06.180 way they treated abortion.
01:35:08.000 You know, there are women who have died.
01:35:11.300 They're dead because of what the left has done.
01:35:13.820 This is a life-and-death situation.
01:35:15.980 They convinced women...
01:35:17.060 And they don't care.
01:35:17.880 No, they don't care at all.
01:35:18.880 First of all, they convinced women that the abortion pill is as safe as ibuprofen or Tylenol.
01:35:23.800 It is absolutely not.
01:35:27.080 We did a whole show on this, on Studios America, going over the numbers on this.
01:35:30.640 And it also is a mental nightmare.
01:35:34.840 Oh, God, then that's secondary.
01:35:36.160 I know, I know.
01:35:36.760 I'm thinking of the physical aspects, but you're right.
01:35:38.400 You're saying, you know, abortion for the mother's health, well, that doesn't help.
01:35:42.640 And for her mental state, well, that's not going to help either.
01:35:46.420 In this particular case, those are the two...
01:35:48.980 These are really dangerous for both of those things.
01:35:52.220 Yeah, and, you know, the number of hospitalizations that come from ibuprofen or Tylenol and the abortion pill are roughly near each other.
01:36:03.880 The difference is there's about 600,000 uses of the abortion pill in the United States.
01:36:10.020 And there are 8 billion doses of Tylenol, for example, in the United States.
01:36:14.200 Not to mention, almost every single, every single hospitalization that comes from Tylenol is due to an overdose.
01:36:23.920 Someone taking way too much Tylenol, more than is allowed on the label, and many times intentional.
01:36:29.800 People who are having suicidal issues and wind up intentionally overdosing, trying to kill themselves, and they go to the hospital.
01:36:35.820 There are no hospitalizations from the abortion bill due to overdose.
01:36:41.260 No one takes 14 abortion pills by mistake.
01:36:44.760 That's not a thing.
01:36:45.900 All of them are just the outcome of the abortion bill being taken as directed, right?
01:36:52.740 So you have this situation.
01:36:54.320 They scare people.
01:36:54.960 First of all, they tell people there's no danger to this.
01:36:57.400 Then when they do have these problems that they think are one in a trillion type problems, happen all the time.
01:37:03.300 Do they?
01:37:04.060 Then when they have those problems, what do they do?
01:37:06.560 Well, they're terrified from the left's fear-mongering that if they go and get medical attention, they'll be thrown in a dungeon for 50 years because of the new abortion laws.
01:37:18.480 Now, that's not true at all.
01:37:21.120 If you happen to be a woman who, God forbid, has gone through this situation and made a choice like that and are dealing with the medical ramifications of that,
01:37:27.880 you absolutely can go get medical attention that you need, it will be provided to you, and it is absolutely legal for you to get that attention.
01:37:37.740 You will not get in trouble for it.
01:37:39.980 Don't die at home because you listen to idiotic people from MSNBC about abortion laws, right?
01:37:47.200 But this is really what's happened here.
01:37:49.060 Now you've created some subset of the left that really believes this stuff, that actually believes that Handmaid's Tale is coming back,
01:38:00.840 that actually believes Adolf Hitler is about to become president of the United States.
01:38:05.120 And you talk about this, there's a reason why people were taking shots at Donald Trump.
01:38:09.940 Yes.
01:38:10.200 When you create an entire society, a subset of society, that thinks they would be doing good if they took out Adolf Hitler,
01:38:22.020 which we all recognize would be doing good.
01:38:25.000 They make movies about that.
01:38:26.480 Tom Cruise stars in them.
01:38:27.760 Like, you're a hero.
01:38:28.840 You're thought of as a hero throughout history when you were doing, when you're trying to take out Adolf Hitler.
01:38:35.580 So when you create a society of people who believe that, well, what happens?
01:38:40.340 What's the outcome of that?
01:38:41.980 And that, I can't get over the fact that after, after that occurred, their closing argument was that he was Adolf Hitler.
01:38:51.100 After he had almost been murdered in front of our eyes twice, their closing argument for this election was Trump is Hitler.
01:38:58.840 It's the most disgusting and irresponsible thing I can imagine.
01:39:04.500 Unless, of course, that's your goal.
01:39:07.560 Then I guess it was right in the pocket of what their election strategy was.
01:39:11.740 And I hate to, I shudder to think that that's actually true.
01:39:15.260 I'm clutching my pearls right now.
01:39:18.100 It's scary to think that way.
01:39:20.220 But it's been, the other side of it is at least there's been some entertainment out of it.
01:39:23.880 The entertainment is they're all freaking out.
01:39:26.060 They look like lunatics.
01:39:27.260 They're all trying to come up with crazy excuses.
01:39:31.100 Actually, Kamala ran a perfect, flawless campaign.
01:39:35.740 And it's just the misogyny of Hispanic people.
01:39:38.900 I mean, this is where they're going.
01:39:40.060 Then why did they vote for Hillary Clinton?
01:39:41.840 I don't know.
01:39:42.580 Why did they vote for Hillary Clinton?
01:39:43.580 By a large margin.
01:39:44.680 30-something points.
01:39:45.680 That's weird.
01:39:46.300 Why did they just elect a female as president in Mexico?
01:39:50.400 It's a very good point.
01:39:51.880 I don't understand.

01:41:10.480 All right.
01:41:15.240 So, Stu, I want to ask you, you know, you know me.
01:41:20.420 I'm always questioning myself, and I think it's healthy to look at your own actions, especially when you've won.
01:41:31.320 Did I do it?
01:41:32.580 Did I?
01:41:32.820 What role did I play?
01:41:34.840 Did I play a negative role, positive role?
01:41:37.040 What, you know, what could I do better next time?
01:41:39.560 Sure.
01:41:39.660 And I wonder, you know, none of the stuff that we said was going to happen, you know, the theft of the election, that they're, you know, going to work overtime, et cetera, et cetera.
01:41:52.240 I think they did that, but I think the GOP did their job, and they obviously didn't have the plans, maybe they did, I don't know, didn't have the plans that we suspected that they might.
01:42:05.800 And so I'm wondering, and so I'm wondering, on our side, did I misjudge them in any way?
01:42:16.020 I'm sure you did in some way, yeah.
01:42:20.320 I mean, look, I don't know, I'm not exactly sure, you're being a little vague here.
01:42:25.060 No, it's a vague question.
01:42:26.960 It's soul-searching on, okay, you know, and mainly because I was so sure that this was going to be a really dangerous period, and that's not happening.
01:42:39.360 Not yet.
01:42:40.200 Yeah, yeah, not yet.
01:42:41.060 Remember, the protests didn't even start until January, when Trump was the first time.
01:42:44.400 Yeah, I know, I know.
01:42:45.400 First Thessalonians 5.3, read that.
01:42:50.880 That's what I thought this weekend.
01:42:54.340 I'm like, hmm, wait a minute.
01:42:57.720 Maybe it's a calm period right before the storm, and you're right, it was calm until January 6th.
01:43:05.280 So that still could be coming, but I just, did I misjudge them?
01:43:10.680 I want to make sure I'm fair.
01:43:12.100 Did I misjudge anything?
01:43:13.980 I'd have to go back and really look at what you said or what we said.
01:43:17.780 I don't, I don't think, nothing pops to mind as to like you made some drastic, I mean, you definitely warned about unrest, and we haven't seen that sort of unrest yet.
01:43:29.920 It seems to me that there's less unrest than in 2016.
01:43:34.000 There's more of like, because I do think.
01:43:36.120 Well, 2016, they went right for the, I mean, they had the pink hats out in mass.
01:43:40.220 I mean, remember, it was the day before, the day of his inauguration where they, we had the women's protest, you know.
01:43:47.040 And they're protesting now in New York.
01:43:48.740 And they've seen the.
01:43:49.380 There will be protests.
01:43:50.220 Yeah.
01:43:50.460 Have you seen the New York protests where you're not taking our legals?
01:43:53.640 And Adams now is suddenly like, yeah, this is a, this is a sanctuary city.
01:43:58.360 And we're going to, what, what are you talking about?
01:44:02.100 It's so strange.
01:44:03.340 I think that there is a, there's more of a resignation to this at some level.
01:44:09.240 Well, it was a very close election.
01:44:10.400 And we shouldn't overstate this.
01:44:11.700 It feels like a blowout because we found out in a day, which doesn't seem normal anymore.
01:44:16.220 But I mean, in reality, you're talking about the, the, those blue wall states were all within two points, you know, but it was all of them.
01:44:24.640 It was all of them, but they were all pretty close.
01:44:26.820 Yeah.
01:44:27.140 I mean, they were all pretty close to the polling averages, frankly.
01:44:30.580 It was all of them, but that was, that's normal.
01:44:33.220 There's your correlated.
01:44:34.960 Polling errors are typically correlated in one direction or the other.
01:44:37.600 And the polling error, when you talk about it, was pretty minor.
01:44:40.600 It was about a point and a half.
01:44:42.440 I mean, it's nothing.
01:44:43.400 So, but I, I do think that unlike in 2016, where they were sure they were winning, they were very, they were uncertain here.
01:44:50.260 And the hype behind Kamala was hollow.
01:44:53.140 Like they, they, they knew this was a real possibility.
01:44:56.900 If they were, I mean, think of what an amazing accomplishment it would have been if they had won.
01:45:01.980 I mean, they, they tossed their candidate like three months before the election.
01:45:05.880 Like it would have been incredible if they had actually won.
01:45:09.840 They didn't.
01:45:10.880 And I think a lot of them realized they were at least in very serious danger of it.
01:45:14.660 So we haven't seen that initial response, but like Trump will do something.
01:45:19.140 Something will happen.
01:45:20.460 I know.
01:45:20.800 There will be some sort of thing that they elevate to the George Floyd status, whether it has to do with race or sex or whatever it is, sexuality, whatever it is.
01:45:30.260 They'll come, they'll come up with something.
01:45:31.600 We just have to be protests.
01:45:32.740 We just have to be vigilant yet.
01:45:35.460 Like you said, what did you do to celebrate this weekend?
01:45:38.280 Celebrate still, you know, right now we have, we can catch our breath.
01:45:44.240 I don't know of a time that we felt that way.
01:45:48.180 And well, I do right after 2016, we were like, Oh, we won Donald Trump.
01:45:53.960 And it was a nightmare and that, but that started right away.
01:45:59.440 This time we, we have some time we should rest and, you know, charge ourselves and have some fun because, you know, what's coming may not be so fun.
01:46:10.700 I'm really, really hopeful though, but I will tell you that some of the stuff that he came out and the policies that he's outlining now, they are so comprehensive and so deep.
01:46:21.680 He's talking to the bone, you know, it's like, we have not going to like that.
01:46:27.060 The left is not going to like that.
01:46:29.080 So I would not be surprised that the other still comes.
01:46:31.760 Yeah.
01:46:31.860 Neither is the elite.
01:46:33.140 Neither are the real, real uber wealthy like George Soros, the NGOs.
01:46:38.900 I mean, he is, he's making a lot of enemies right now.
01:46:44.660 The ministry of pre-born is fighting every single day for the lives of babies.
01:46:51.320 And they're also fighting for the lives and the souls of moms.
01:46:55.460 That's what I love about pre-born is that they, they help the mom and the child.
01:47:01.100 So they're saving two souls.
01:47:02.820 The stain of abortion on American continues to this day.
01:47:06.520 Wholesale murder still happens, but it has to come to an end someday.
01:47:11.600 We have to change the hearts and the minds of people in this country.
01:47:15.300 That's, what's going to change this.
01:47:16.700 So proud to partner with pre-born every day.
01:47:19.140 They sponsor free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing help for up to two years
01:47:24.060 after the baby is born.
01:47:25.760 When a mom sees her unborn child on that monitor, when she hears that heartbeat, she's twice
01:47:30.360 as likely to consider choosing life for her baby.
01:47:33.480 Pre-born is saving 200 babies a day with the help from people just like you and me.
01:47:39.000 One ultrasound is $28.
01:47:41.020 140 will rescue five babies.
01:47:43.900 Babies are worth fighting for.
01:47:45.980 So are their moms.
01:47:46.880 Donate securely, just dial pound 250, say the keyword baby, pound 250, keyword baby, or go

01:48:06.260 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:48:22.120 It is Veterans Day, and there are a ton of veterans now that are homeless, which is absolutely
01:48:30.260 inexcusable.
01:48:32.540 What we're doing with people that are coming from other countries who haven't given any
01:48:38.220 service to our nation at all, and we're putting them up and we're giving them food and everything
01:48:42.840 else that is an abomination, especially in comparison to what our veterans have done for us.
01:48:52.060 They come back.
01:48:53.300 They're wounded mentally or physically.
01:48:55.400 Some of them both.
01:48:57.100 Many of them struggle.
01:49:00.780 I'm sorry, but the VA is also an abomination.
01:49:06.160 I mean, everybody's like, oh, I really want, you know, socialized medicine.
01:49:11.780 Really?
01:49:12.360 Talk to a veteran.
01:49:14.700 See how they get the shaft.
01:49:16.540 If they'll give these guys, our war heroes, that crappy of health care, what do you think
01:49:22.540 you're going to get?
01:49:24.620 Well, one of my mottos has always been, if we wanted the government to do less, we have
01:49:30.300 to do more, and there's a lot of really great groups out there to help veterans.
01:49:37.340 A new one that I have found that I really, really like is the Battle Within, and I've
01:49:42.900 asked the executive director to come on with me.
01:49:46.000 His name is Justin Hoover, and you can find this at thebattlewithin.org, thebattlewithin.org.
01:49:53.340 When I was up in Kansas City, I met with him, and he's got an incredible story to tell.
01:49:59.220 Justin, welcome.
01:50:01.480 Thank you so much, Glenn.
01:50:02.800 So great to be with you here on Veterans Day.
01:50:05.040 Yeah, thank you.
01:50:06.140 So, Justin, tell me your story.
01:50:10.080 Sure.
01:50:10.800 Yeah, so really, my story starts in Iraq.
01:50:14.180 I was in Tal Afar, Sinjar region.
01:50:17.280 I know when you were in Kansas City, we talked about you being there.
01:50:19.980 It's where the Yazidi got chased up the mountain of death.
01:50:23.380 And so that was really my AO, and I spent a year, just shy of a year there.
01:50:28.920 There was a lot of heavy fighting that went on.
01:50:31.040 I ended up coming home with a pair of Purple Hearts.
01:50:33.200 First one, thanks to some small arms fire to the face, and the second one, Kurt,
01:50:40.760 left me full of some shrapnel that I had to get medevaced out of country to get 10 to
01:50:46.440 two, and ended up resulting coming home.
01:50:48.560 And after that, you know, Glenn, I really felt like I had all my stuff together.
01:50:55.100 I got out of the military, came back to Kansas City, was really moving on with my life and
01:50:59.260 forward with my life for the next 10 years.
01:51:01.780 And it wasn't until my stepdaughter hit high school and was really suffering from depression
01:51:08.800 and suicidiology that all the things that I suppressed, you know, I'll just say kids should
01:51:13.880 never be in a war zone.
01:51:14.920 And all the times when I couldn't help those children in the way that I wanted were kind
01:51:21.220 of replaying itself in my living room.
01:51:23.520 And just that hopelessness and helplessness just really drove me and my mental health into
01:51:29.720 a dark place.
01:51:30.820 And fortunately, my wife recognized it and was able to convince me to actually tend to it.
01:51:37.520 And that's when I really started my own journey and my own path towards getting better myself.
01:51:44.600 How'd you do it?
01:51:46.560 Well, I was very fortunate.
01:51:48.440 You know, I tried different services.
01:51:50.200 You know, I tried with the VA.
01:51:52.760 And I'll say we're off on our own biggest barrier, right?
01:51:56.360 There's a lot of barriers.
01:51:59.200 Wait, you're breaking up.
01:52:00.960 Are you there?
01:52:01.980 Oh, I am.
01:52:03.720 Are you able to hear me?
01:52:04.680 Yeah, I am now.
01:52:05.480 Go ahead.
01:52:05.740 There we go.
01:52:07.020 So, you know, we're off on our own biggest barriers to our mental health.
01:52:11.020 And I was very fortunate.
01:52:12.820 He's now our clinical manager.
01:52:14.080 Adam Majors had designed a program that I went through.
01:52:17.900 And it was just so life changing.
01:52:19.560 And I knew I needed to stay involved in this community.
01:52:22.940 And that really kind of led to the Battle Within's creation just as a way to pay it forward
01:52:28.260 to others that have been in that same space that I was.
01:52:32.200 And because it really allowed me to be the family man, the father, the partner, the parent
01:52:42.580 that I wanted to be.
01:52:43.800 It allowed me to really have the self-confidence and find myself again to be able to be a leader
01:52:51.360 of an organization to be able to provide that mental health for others.
01:52:54.580 So, you came home and you didn't necessarily, I mean, I don't want to make this such a blanket
01:53:01.460 statement, but you didn't necessarily fight for what you, or fight with what you had done.
01:53:05.860 It's what you couldn't do or didn't do, the saving of others.
01:53:11.680 Is that right?
01:53:12.720 Yeah.
01:53:12.940 And, you know, everyone's story is so unique and so personal to their own.
01:53:18.420 But for me, you know, really, I felt I had 10 fingers, 10 toes.
01:53:23.880 I kept seeing all these organizations helping veterans.
01:53:27.420 And a lot of them were amputees or burn victims, of which there were guys in my unit that that
01:53:31.960 applied to.
01:53:33.020 And so, I really felt, hey, I'm good to go.
01:53:36.940 I don't want to take services from somebody else.
01:53:39.540 I know there's limited resources and I want it to go to them.
01:53:42.760 And so, we all do that, right?
01:53:45.940 Because we are these selfless servants.
01:53:47.840 And so, there's always that call to just allow others that need it worse.
01:53:53.300 And I always tell people now, it's kind of like a mass casualty event.
01:53:57.960 Like when an IED goes off, you don't tell the medic, no, I'm good to go.
01:54:02.900 The medic triages you all and tells you, hey, you need services now or you need them here
01:54:09.400 in a little bit and ranks you on who gets to go on the medevac bird first.
01:54:14.060 And so, really, that's what we do at The Battle Within is we help people get started on that
01:54:19.300 path to healing.
01:54:20.760 And that was really the struggle for me is finding both the courage and the permission
01:54:26.860 to allow myself that healing process.
01:54:30.100 So, this is free to veterans, if I'm not mistaken.
01:54:35.000 What do you do?
01:54:38.980 What is like the five-day program?
01:54:41.840 Go ahead.
01:54:42.500 Yeah, great question.
01:54:43.840 And as you said, yes, it is free to our veterans and first responders throughout the entire nation.
01:54:49.200 And really, what we do at The Battle Within during our five-day revenant journey is we really
01:54:54.600 take these people that come in, really, most of them hopeless, and we give them that opportunity
01:55:00.920 to fully understand and explore those traumas that they've endured in service to us all.
01:55:06.240 And that's very hard to do, right?
01:55:08.340 Because you don't want to expose those parts of yourself because in our professions, there's a lot
01:55:16.900 of shame and stigma that goes with that.
01:55:19.400 These are team sports.
01:55:20.320 They're life or death sports.
01:55:21.440 If I share that I'm not in a good place, then that's a good way to get kicked out of the family unit.
01:55:29.820 So, to really allow them a place where they can come and share that.
01:55:33.940 Are these doctors?
01:55:34.700 Where they'll be honored and respected.
01:55:35.880 Are these doctors or veterans?
01:55:37.720 We have clinicians.
01:55:38.420 Yeah, we have clinicians that lead the program.
01:55:40.660 Several of them are veterans themselves.
01:55:42.500 We also have peer support that are previous graduates that are veterans or first responders
01:55:47.700 that come back and really hold the space, help process, and be there for these folks as
01:55:53.260 they go through what's a very challenging but rewarding week.
01:55:57.780 So, here we are on Veterans Day.
01:56:00.340 Give me your pitch to any veteran who might be listening who is struggling or any family member
01:56:05.680 that knows of somebody who is struggling.
01:56:07.840 You know, I would just say that there is a place that understands what you're going through,
01:56:16.020 that cares what you're going through, and believes that you're worth it.
01:56:20.020 And I think that that is such a challenge where veterans get into this isolated place where
01:56:27.600 they believe that nobody understands, nobody cares, and that they're not worth it.
01:56:31.820 And that is the perfect recipe for isolation, depression, and ultimately suicide.
01:56:36.980 And so, if you are struggling with whatever in your life, please reach out for help, either
01:56:45.100 through the Battle Within or to someone else.
01:56:47.280 That first step is the hardest step.
01:56:49.920 But it gets so much easier, and there is hope.
01:56:53.220 And that's really what we bring at the Battle Within is we bring that hope, we bring those
01:56:57.500 tools, we bring that community support to really allow people to reclaim their life and
01:57:02.720 to really have the life that they've earned and that they deserve for themselves and their family.
01:57:09.760 I will tell you that I'm a recovering alcoholic, and you get to a point where you're like,
01:57:14.760 nothing can help me.
01:57:16.080 Nothing can help me.
01:57:17.020 It's just me.
01:57:18.060 I'm the problem.
01:57:19.540 And you've just boxed yourself into this corner where there's no way out.
01:57:24.160 And if you happen to be listening right now and you feel like, yeah, but it's not going
01:57:29.860 to work for me, please call them.
01:57:32.440 Also, if you are somebody who has money, they can offer this for free because of big donations.
01:57:42.400 So if you can donate anything, go to thebattlewithin.org.
01:57:48.840 That's thebattlewithin.org.
01:57:52.460 Make a donation, or if you or somebody you love, check out all of the information and
01:57:57.840 spread this, please.
01:57:59.220 It is Veterans Day, and there is no excuse for any veteran to be suffering right now.
01:58:05.100 There's none.
01:58:05.660 And we want to make sure, and I know you feel the same way, that our veterans are treated
01:58:11.920 with the respect and the dignity that they deserve.
01:58:15.280 So go to thebattlewithin.org, thebattlewithin.org.

01:59:45.660 New Christmas album comes out in a couple of weeks.
02:00:13.520 It's Home for Christmas with Cheyenne Grace and the Czechoslovakian National Symphony.
02:00:25.180 Is it still called the Czechoslovakian?
02:00:27.340 No, it's Czech.
02:00:28.620 Czech Republic.
02:00:29.040 Sorry, yeah, Czech Republic Symphony.
02:00:33.020 So this is your daughter, by the way.
02:00:34.940 People should know that.
02:00:36.760 I hate that.
02:00:38.360 You hate your daughter?
02:00:39.680 Gosh, no, I hate this.
02:00:41.080 I hate because it seems like such a, I don't know, vanity thing.
02:00:48.980 Like, yeah, I know why you'd think that, but again, it's one of those situations where,
02:00:53.240 like, I don't know if you had hired her to run the radio company or something, but people
02:00:58.520 would have no idea.
02:01:01.160 I mean, you can hear her voice.
02:01:02.240 You can tell she's pretty damn talented.
02:01:03.400 I mean, like, this is how she's going to earn her college education and everything else.
02:01:08.220 I'm like, you want it?
02:01:10.160 I'll help you do one thing in your life.
02:01:14.480 And, you know, and if it's successful, then maybe I'll help you again.
02:01:19.960 But hopefully you won't need my help.
02:01:21.660 But this is what she wanted help on.
02:01:24.700 And this is her, Cheyenne Grace is her stage name.
02:01:27.040 She's an actress, too.
02:01:27.960 She has not used Cheyenne Becks, and she was, she just told me, she just told me, when
02:01:33.940 I was little, I thought our last name was Wells, because we used to travel always and use that
02:01:40.680 name, Wells, as an Orson Wells.
02:01:44.000 And so she's on this tape.
02:01:45.900 She comes on it, and she's found this tape of her, like, you know, really, really young.
02:01:50.140 And she's like, hello, everybody.
02:01:52.240 I'm Cheyenne Wells.
02:01:54.160 Oh, really?
02:01:54.920 She had no idea that that wasn't her last name.
02:01:57.340 So you screwed her up from the beginning.
02:01:59.040 Screwed her up from the beginning.
02:01:59.600 Okay, that's good.
02:01:59.940 No, but then she started using Beck, and then people were like, oh, you're Glenn Beck's
02:02:03.460 daughter, and she didn't like that.
02:02:05.000 Yeah, I could see it, because you're trying to, you're going to go out on your own.
02:02:07.340 You want to be on her own.
02:02:08.380 Yeah.
02:02:08.720 Want to do her own thing.
02:02:09.520 That's understandable.
02:02:10.060 One other thing, I think, again, I have not heard this whole thing yet, but it sounds
02:02:13.220 incredible.
02:02:14.200 I'll send it to you today.
02:02:15.540 Please.
02:02:16.020 Yeah.
02:02:16.560 I also like that you didn't try to do, like, some crazy, you know, like, we're going to remake
02:02:21.160 all these songs in some weird way with all these new instrumentations and reimagining.
02:02:25.720 Like, these are like classics.
02:02:26.920 Yeah, and we had them arranged just like the classic.
02:02:31.600 Like, the version that we like as a family.
02:02:34.660 We're like, you know, you're not going to do White Christmas.
02:02:36.860 She doesn't do White Christmas, but you're not going to do White Christmas and really
02:02:40.000 make it sound different than, you know, a 1940s White Christmas.
02:02:43.820 Yeah.
02:02:44.140 You know?
02:02:44.460 I feel like when I hear some of these songs, I picture them, like, already, I've already
02:02:47.780 seen them in movies.
02:02:48.900 Yeah.
02:02:49.120 I feel like that's a really good sign for the success of this thing.
02:02:51.360 Yeah, you're going to love it.
02:02:52.000 Because it's like, it already feels like the real version.
02:02:54.700 Yeah.
02:02:54.880 And, you know, it is, again, I would never give you compliments like that, but she's
02:02:59.300 incredibly talented.
02:03:00.600 She is.
02:03:00.920 It is amazing.
02:03:02.660 I said this before.
02:03:03.660 I said to the guy who was doing the vocal production, I said, if the orchestra, we got
02:03:09.060 back from Prague and did the orchestra.
02:03:11.280 And I'm like, it is phenomenal.
02:03:13.320 And I said, she cannot release an album.
02:03:17.140 If she doesn't, if the star is the orchestra, not releasing this.
02:03:22.920 Right.
02:03:23.100 And if she's a seven out of 10, like, she's going to have, she's going to be graded on
02:03:27.800 a very negative curve for being associated to you.
02:03:30.340 Yes.
02:03:30.620 As someone who's dealt with that for multiple decades, I know.
02:03:34.340 Oh, you're running fast, aren't you?
02:03:36.340 Yeah.
02:03:36.660 Yeah.
02:03:37.420 But, you know, it's great.
02:03:39.260 I can't wait.
02:03:39.360 So it'll be available on Spotify and Apple and everything else here in a couple of weeks.
02:03:45.160 I mean, you're drawing it.
02:03:46.160 We're getting close to Christmas here.
02:03:47.380 I know.
02:03:48.120 You're really drawing this out.
02:03:48.920 I know.
02:03:49.740 It was supposed to be available now, but it's all the encoding and everything else is taking
02:03:55.060 longer.
02:03:56.180 I mean, you should try to get it out before December.
02:03:58.240 That's what I said.
02:03:59.460 That's what I said.
02:04:00.340 What do you think?
02:04:00.580 Yeah.
02:04:00.880 That's what I said.
02:04:01.660 You also have a Halloween movie coming out in three months.
02:04:05.880 It was supposed to come out this last week and just delays and all kinds of different
02:04:12.220 You know what I would do?
02:04:13.080 Yeah.
02:04:13.500 I would blame the producer for such a problem like that because, I mean, the producer is
02:04:18.260 supposed to be the one on top of that.
02:04:19.660 Who produced this album?
02:04:21.640 Is there a particular person?
02:04:23.520 I don't know who you're talking about.
02:04:24.240 Who would you put as, like, responsible?
02:04:25.380 You know who I blame?
02:04:26.380 Joe Biden.
02:04:27.040 Joe Biden didn't get out fast enough.
02:04:32.020 Bidenomics in action.
02:04:33.240 I had to race to finally, because he was like, I'm going to do a Christmas album.
02:04:38.080 I'm going to do a Christmas album.
02:04:39.160 And then, you know, I said, okay, what Christmas song?
02:04:41.760 He's like, go.
02:04:44.320 And finally, America woke up and went, he's not going to do a Christmas album.
02:04:47.620 He's not qualified to do a Christmas album.
02:04:49.540 So I had to rush to do our Christmas album.
02:04:52.440 So let me.
02:04:53.360 If he would have dropped out earlier on the Christmas album.
02:04:55.460 Right.
02:04:55.820 It would have been smooth sailing.
02:04:57.860 That's true.
02:04:58.360 Yeah.
02:04:58.600 That's true.
02:04:59.440 I mean, it was basically a flawless campaign by you.
02:05:02.840 It's been flawless.
02:05:04.800 But it's Joe Biden's fault.
02:05:05.240 If it doesn't sell, Joe Biden.
02:05:07.480 Here's my proposal for you.
02:05:08.700 Yeah.
02:05:08.960 If this hits, I want to figure out what the right metric is, but some level of success.
02:05:12.820 You have to commit to doing a duet with her that you sing absolutely seriously.
02:05:19.080 A full song where you and her sing together and you have parts where you sing by yourself.
02:05:24.480 No, I don't.
02:05:25.260 I don't think that's it.
02:05:26.080 In fact, a whole Glenn Beck Christmas album produced by me.
02:05:31.320 The Glenn Beck Program.
