The Glenn Beck Program - Will Democrats Ever Take Responsibility for Anything？｜ 11⧸24⧸21 ｜ The Glenn Beck Program

00:00:00.000 Thank you so much, Hillary. I want to tell you a little bit of something about home title lock.

00:00:05.340 You have a homeowner's insurance for a pretty good reason, usually because without it, a fire

00:00:09.660 or flood or burglary could theoretically destroy you financially. Yeah, I will say, luckily, I have

00:00:17.060 insurance. I went through a flood. It was a catastrophe, but, you know, we were able to put

00:00:21.120 the pieces back together. You might not get that lucky with home title fraud. Your homeowner's

00:00:26.820 policy doesn't cover it. It's one of the fastest growing crimes in America, and it can absolutely

00:00:31.860 ruin you financially. That's why you need home title lock, because home title lock will protect

00:00:36.540 you against home title fraud. And that happens when a criminal forges your signature on documents

00:00:41.480 stating that you sold your home to them. Then he takes out loans against your home and leaves you

00:00:47.140 with the payments. You'll spend a fortune in legal fees trying to prove you didn't commit fraud.

00:00:51.960 That sounds like a lot of fun. Home title lock puts a barrier around your home's title. The second

00:00:56.660 they detect any issues, they can help shut it down. So go to home title lock and register your

00:01:02.380 address. See if you're already a victim. Use the code radio for 30 risk-free days of protection.

00:01:07.060 The code is radio at home title lock.com.

00:03:54.160 Monday. And we'll be happy to have him back then. Speak for yourself, but yeah.

00:04:01.600 Yeah. Well, some will. Yeah, some will. There's a disagreement about that. I think a lot of people

00:04:06.140 would say now. Controversial. Yeah. Yeah, it's a little controversial. It's important that we get

00:04:09.180 all sides of that debate. Yeah. And there are a lot of people, a lot of people. Right.

00:04:13.700 Who are maybe not as happy. But fair and balanced coverage of that. Yes. All weekend. Right here on

00:04:22.040 most of the same station. Yesterday, President Braindead was talking about how well stocked

00:04:28.280 the grocery stores are. And man, if you've been at a grocery store, you know that's true. I don't

00:04:33.700 care if you're seeing empty shelves. He just said the store shelves are full. So I don't want to hear

00:04:39.900 your belly aching. It's not a lack of product. It's an excess of space on the shelves. Thank you.

00:04:46.040 You know, the supply chain does not seem to be hurting the empty shelves. No, no, no, no. It's

00:04:52.480 just that there's too much room at these grocery stores. Yeah. And that's a, that's an argument of

00:04:56.980 bounty this Thanksgiving season. Right. So when you're looking down that aisle and you see that the

00:05:02.960 shelves, there's like one item on the shelves and they stretch on for, you know, 50 yards.

00:05:08.680 Mm-hmm. Just know that there's just too much excess space. They shouldn't have a store that

00:05:14.020 big. I mean, they're building these gigantic stores. They got nothing to do. We don't need

00:05:19.220 all that. We don't need all that room, you know, to store a few grocery items.

00:05:26.200 Fair point. Yeah. Right. They are. You know, it's interesting. It's a waste. Butterball, the turkey

00:05:33.100 company, is saying that they do have a lot of turkeys, but many of them are too large.

00:05:38.740 They're too large. The turkeys are too large. What? And who, this could be a revolt. At

00:05:43.120 any time could be a revolt. I feel like if the turkeys grow too big, they're going to

00:05:46.000 take over. I mean, we, this has been a rough week for, for turkeys for a long time. And

00:05:50.020 at some point they're going to want the revenge. And if you let them get too big, who knows what

00:05:53.740 could happen? I'm a little nervous about that. They're too big. They're too big. And

00:05:57.700 well, actually it's interesting. Weird explanation. It is. I guess like if you want to get a small

00:06:01.440 turkey for a smaller gathering, it's hard. A couple of reasons for that. One, you know,

00:06:06.260 still there's some people who are maybe a little hesitant to have large gatherings because

00:06:11.360 of COVID. Now I know maybe in this audience that's not as common, but you know, think of

00:06:15.360 the left, right? Like they can't even go outside. Like if they're going outside by themselves

00:06:19.720 in a field with no one around them, they have an N95 mask on, right? Those types of people 1.00

00:06:24.060 are just not going to, to Thanksgiving gatherings at all. So people are having smaller gatherings

00:06:29.880 and therefore want smaller turkeys. The other thing is last year, and if it's hard to remember

00:06:35.260 back a whole year at this point, but last year really, you know, gatherings were way cut

00:06:40.140 back. It was the first Thanksgiving in COVID and the, you know, much more dramatically than

00:06:47.260 this year, there were fewer gatherings. And so those turkeys that would have been on your 0.95

00:06:52.900 plate. Yeah. We're still walking around. Oh yeah. So they had another year of growth.

00:06:57.160 So now they're too big. The turkeys that are going to come to you are going to be too large.

00:07:02.220 We didn't kill them soon enough. We let them live for an entire year, Pat. That was dumb of us.

00:07:07.360 And we fed them. Yeah. They grew larger. And now. Now they're ready for the takeover. They're too 0.98

00:07:12.420 big and probably going to take over. I mean, I don't think we make it through this weekend as a

00:07:16.660 nation. Now comes the turkey revolution. There's going to be a revolt at some point. When you were

00:07:21.160 revolted, like 50 million of you were killed every year. Exactly. Yeah. You'd be pissed.

00:07:26.040 They'd be pissed off. So you, I would assume now I would prepare myself for an attack. That's all

00:07:31.320 I'm saying. At some point, the attack of the turkeys, the turkeys are coming, you know, it's

00:07:36.060 coming, but here's what, uh, the president had to say about it. Also met the CEOs of Walmart,

00:07:43.420 Target, Home Depot, TJ Maxx, and others. Those retailers, large retailers and others agreed to

00:07:50.500 move products more quickly, stock the shelves more quickly. And by the way, you may have heard

00:07:56.700 the CEO of Walmart yesterday on the steps we've taken. He said, and I quote, the combination of

00:08:03.020 private enterprise and government working together has been really successful. He went on to say all

00:08:08.840 the way through the supply chain. There's a lot of innovation because of the actions we've taken.

00:08:13.820 Things have begun to change and to quote in the past three weeks, the number of containers sitting

00:08:20.040 on docks blocking movement are down by 33%. Really? Shipping prices are down 25%. That's a lie. More

00:08:28.700 goods are moving more quickly and more cheaply out of our ports, onto your doorsteps and on the store

00:08:34.420 shelves. How come there's 160 ships in the LA Harbor? There would be, uh, there'd not be ample

00:08:40.860 food available for Thanksgiving. So many people talked about that. So many understandably, but

00:08:45.820 families can rest easy. Grocery stores are well stocked with Turkey and everything else you need

00:08:50.360 for Thanksgiving and everything. And the major retailers I mentioned are can have confirmed

00:08:55.080 their shelves will be well stocked in stores this holiday season. Yeah. And that's good news for those

00:09:01.260 moms and dads are worried about whether the Christmas gifts will be available. That is good

00:09:05.280 news. It goes for everything from bicycles to ice skates. Huh? Yeah. Every single thing between

00:09:10.240 bicycles and ice skates. Everything. What if it's not between bicycles and ice skates? Then it's not

00:09:15.200 there, but we're not talking about that right now. So anything that is like, it might start with a J

00:09:20.820 past ice skates or have an A before bicycles is not going to be in the shelves, but everything else

00:09:26.800 should be fine. Like avocados. There aren't any. No, there's, there's not. So they're not, they're

00:09:31.040 being eaten by the, the revolting Turkey. If you want juice, it's not there. Oh gosh. It's not there. 1.00

00:09:36.280 No, definitely not. I mean, that's clear down at J. Yeah. So forget it. Oh, so I don't, I mean,

00:09:40.980 I don't typically go to TJ Maxx for Thanksgiving, but you don't know. Oh my gosh. Well, we ate there last

00:09:46.400 year. We, uh, you, you did indoor dining at TJ Maxx for Thanksgiving. Yeah. Yeah. It's an

00:09:52.840 interesting, so I'll pick up some gravy there, you know, but that's about it. I'm not going

00:09:57.920 crazy at TJ Maxx. It was a weird, it was a weird inclusion of TJ Maxx, uh, in the Thanksgiving

00:10:05.380 babbling he had there. And since when did Democrats become such big fans of Walmart and what the

00:10:11.540 Walmart CEOs love Walmart. They love Walmart now, man, man, the discounts you can get there

00:10:17.740 and, and the low pay that the employees have so they can keep their prices low. Ah, they

00:10:23.040 love all that. Yeah. It's interesting because they love it all. And, and their argument here,

00:10:27.260 right. Is that not only will the stuff be at the store, but Walmart's going to do everything

00:10:32.520 it can to keep the prices low, which is something they usually terrorize Walmart for in the administration.

00:10:39.680 They say, Oh, well, Walmart's, you know, salaries are too low. Their hourly wages are too low.

00:10:45.780 They're not giving a living wage. This is an evil company. It's exploiting workers. All

00:10:50.740 of that until the second they need them. Yep. And you know what? I mean, frankly, Walmart

00:10:56.180 falling in. He threw in Home Depot too. They hate Home Depot because their CEO is somewhat

00:11:01.700 conservative. They hate them. Yeah. And the founder was, was conservative. The founder. Yeah.

00:11:06.420 Um, but you know, it's like the second they need them, they quote them as if they're the

00:11:11.940 it's evidence of their policies working. And, uh, you know, at some level you have to be a

00:11:17.880 little critical. I think of these companies for falling into this over and over again,

00:11:20.680 if a, if, if an administration and the left has done this for decades now, criticizes your

00:11:26.060 company for being essentially, uh, operating a sweat shop. Maybe when they need you for a press

00:11:33.120 conference like this, you don't show up. Yeah. You know, maybe you tell them screw

00:11:37.480 off. I'm not going to come here and bail you out of your little, uh, your little, uh, begging 0.90

00:11:42.700 for supply chain. Good news. Screw off. How about this? Because the very second they don't

00:11:47.700 need you anymore, uh, they're going to be bad mouthing you and talking about how evil

00:11:52.360 you are and how low pay, uh, how low paid your employees are and that they don't have good

00:11:56.940 benefits and you don't have a job worth having. So yeah, you're right. They should just,

00:12:02.640 I mean, they should not be helping out this guy. I mean, maybe this is a bit petty.

00:12:07.200 No, it's possible. I don't think so though. I don't think so. They're criticizing the entire

00:12:10.940 business model, which helps by the way, millions and millions of people get the things that they

00:12:16.080 need and want on a daily basis. Fairly, fairly well afford. And the other left looks at Walmart

00:12:21.080 as this place where you walk and look at this capitalism. It's just, Oh, unfettered capitalism.

00:12:26.320 And look at this. I walk into a Walmart, honestly, and I am, I think of it as a miracle.

00:12:30.880 Think of what is inside the walls all over this country. You walk in, it is endless rows

00:12:39.560 of everything you could possibly need at a relatively good price. And it is always filled.

00:12:46.940 It takes thousands and thousands of people throughout the supply chain to go through this,

00:12:52.520 to make these products show up magically on these shelves every day. They're always there.

00:12:57.220 And just because of, you know, of, of capitalism, it's possible. I mean, it would not be possible

00:13:06.180 if the world that Joe Biden wants, that Kamala Harris wants, that AOC wants, if they implemented

00:13:12.700 it and none of that stuff is there. I mean, we, how many times there's story after story

00:13:16.400 after story of, of Soviet leaders who would come here and be blown away at all the bounty 0.60

00:13:21.840 that we had. And here we are risking it. I was, I was in a, I, and I've been in this

00:13:27.960 place, uh, scant few times, but there's a pretty, pretty much brand new, uh, Walmart that opened

00:13:34.340 sort of near where we live. And I walked in there the other day and just the produce section

00:13:40.580 is bigger than our house. It is gigantic. And to, to look across the expanse of the whole

00:13:47.560 store, you think I'm, I can't get across this without a golf cart. I can't, I'm not walking

00:13:51.780 that far. I need camping equipment. Cause I'd have to stop and, and start a campfire and

00:13:59.400 pitch a tent about halfway through the store. Well, number one, they have the camping. Yeah,

00:14:04.380 they do. So you could get it there. Number two, this may be more of a commentary on your

00:14:08.520 age than it is on, uh, on the Walmart size. Just no, you may just be a little, it is really

00:14:15.280 big. It is really big. And yes, I'm getting old. Uh, that's, so that part is true as well.

00:14:19.660 It may have more to do with your back problems than it does with Walmart size, but it is really

00:14:24.360 amazing. You know, there's new products there, there, as you mentioned, fresh produce. I mean,

00:14:29.440 you think about back when, you know, you're growing up the, the, the local department store,

00:14:37.100 if they had produce was probably terrible, right? You know, you go, it would be worse than

00:14:41.700 anything you could get at a, you know, a gas station. Now even gas stations have produce

00:14:45.540 sometimes. Yeah. And places like Walmart, I mean, are, are, are stocked Florida ceiling

00:14:51.280 with everything. There's almost nothing you can't get there. Yeah. And, and I will say

00:14:54.760 like, you know, at some, I have noticed less and I don't know if this is different in different

00:14:58.940 parts of the country. Usually Texas is better. So I can't, I can't judge your community out

00:15:05.280 there. Okay. All I know is usually things in Texas are better. However, when I go to the,

00:15:10.200 when I've been going to the stores over the past couple of months, I've seen less of the

00:15:15.340 absence of products, empty shelves. I've seen some of it, but not a lot. What I have seen

00:15:20.000 and noticed is that the prices are going up and that either one of those two issues are hitting

00:15:28.860 Americans in ways that are, you know, really damaging. You know, yeah. You know, remember 1.00

00:15:34.980 it is only four months ago. Think of this four months ago that this administration was out there

00:15:42.620 bragging about saving you 14 cents on your July 4th picnic. That's right. It was only four months

00:15:50.620 ago. It seems like 40 years ago, but this administration was tweeting, Hey, everyone's

00:15:56.200 saying prices are going up, but we've saved you 14% or 14, not percent, 14 cents on your entire,

00:16:02.900 uh, July 4th barbecue. And it wasn't just stating it as if like, okay, guys, like I,

00:16:10.220 everyone's saying prices are going up and they're actually pretty much flat. You know,

00:16:13.200 we see even they're even down 14 cents. It wasn't that they cited it as evidence that their economic

00:16:19.700 plan was working. That is what their argument was. Fast forward four months. Now they're on TV

00:16:26.240 telling you all the time. I can't believe that prices are going way, way, way up, uh, super high,

00:16:30.060 but it's temporary. We swear. Well, I thought you told me the reason they were down is because

00:16:34.440 your economic plan was working. Did it stop working? The answer to that of course is yes.

00:16:40.160 It wasn't working before and it's not working now actually, but this is a, this it's hard to imagine

00:16:50.100 failing harder than this administration has. They, everything they said they were going to do

00:16:57.260 has been an utter catastrophe from day one in office. Yeah. And it's, it really is amazing.

00:17:03.060 I mean, the only thing that they can even claim as a victory is in the middle of inflation,

00:17:08.220 they spent $1.2 trillion on infrastructure, largely that we don't need. And the only reason

00:17:15.060 they got that done is because a bunch of Republicans went along with them. Right. And that's a whole nother

00:17:20.000 story, but a big, important part. I think it was 13 Republicans, wasn't it? Yeah. I mean,

00:17:24.020 that's a goodly number. You had double digits in Republicans, uh, voting with the Democrats and

00:17:29.960 you can argue six Democrats switch sides to the Republicans. And that was in the house, right?

00:17:34.480 Yeah. Yeah. And the house may be even more significant. You got a bunch of senators that

00:17:39.800 are Republican to do it because they needed to get over 60 votes. Yeah. And the Republicans said,

00:17:44.420 you know what, Joe, you need, you need, you need a PR victory. You need something that's going to

00:17:49.600 make inflation worse and, and, and do all and commit all sorts of problems. Again, this is not

00:17:56.000 money that we have. These are not things that we need largely. There's some things in there that you

00:18:01.240 could argue that we need, but a lot of it was just fluff and spending and buying people off. And

00:18:05.660 Republicans, a bunch of them said, you know what, let us help you with that. And remember when

00:18:09.500 Democrats did that for Trump? Uh, no, you don't, cause it never happened. No. And no,

00:18:13.580 nor would it ever. It just would not ever happen. The only time it happened was when

00:18:18.440 Donald Trump was doing a democratic priority, criminal justice reform. When, when criminal

00:18:25.980 justice reform was going on, Democrats jumped on board, but that was their bill largely. Like

00:18:30.880 it was Republicans. Uh, it was not, it was always been a democratic priority. And they weren't really

00:18:35.900 on board with Trump so much as Kim Kardashian. Yeah. Kardashian, Kanye. She kind of pushed that one

00:18:41.660 forward. All right. Uh, 888-727-BECK. More patents too for Glenn coming up in one minute.

00:20:05.960 about high gas prices and how we faced worse spikes than this. Come on. Uh, you know, today though,

00:20:12.340 I want to address another challenge that families are facing and the one I think the most focused on

00:20:17.980 right now, high gas prices, this is a problem. Is it not just here in the United States, but around

00:20:24.500 the world, around the world, the price of gasoline has reached record levels recently in Europe and in

00:20:29.860 Asia. Yeah. In France, at the end of the last month, it reached about $7 per gallon. Holy. In Japan,

00:20:35.860 it's about $5 and 50 cents per gallon. Wow. The highest it's been in years. Of course, it's always

00:20:42.420 painful when gas prices. Pause it for a second. This is to say that this isn't my fault. In some

00:20:47.860 countries, it's even higher than what we have here. So I've got nothing to do with this. Yeah. In

00:20:55.260 Russia, in Russia, the prices are high and in France, $7 an hour. And I think some other place in

00:21:04.460 Europe, they're like $17 an hour. I'm not sure, but I think so. But what I'm saying, it's not my

00:21:12.680 fault. It's these damned other people who do these things, the people who produce oil. 0.98

00:21:22.340 Yeah. Of course. I don't know if he is aware of this. We're like the largest oil, or at least we 0.99

00:21:27.920 were under Trump, the largest oil producer in the world. We have more oil in the ground and shale

00:21:33.920 than even Saudi Arabia. And yet, for some reason, we can't be energy independent again. How did that

00:21:41.420 happen? How did that happen? He'll take none of the blame on that. But we were right on the precipice

00:21:49.500 of energy independence. And now he's pulled us back. We should also note that the reason why gas prices

00:21:56.920 are higher in places like Japan are largely, I mean, Japan's a specific example, but like a lot

00:22:02.120 of these countries just jack up taxes really high. And by the way, it was his party. I mean,

00:22:09.020 Biden tried to take credit for this. Oh, they said they wanted the gas tax. And I said, no,

00:22:13.240 I said, it's going to hit people too hard. It's like, well, first of all, the party is saying they

00:22:17.180 want it. You should note that. That's important to know. And they've been arguing for this for a very

00:22:22.040 long time. The fact that they blocked it this one time, it does not mean much. If gas prices were low,

00:22:26.820 right now, you'd have it. You'd have that gas tax. The fact is they like high gas prices because

00:22:32.240 that gives them an excuse to push the alternatives on us. Yep. They love it when gas prices, they won't

00:22:39.200 say that, but they love it because that fits into their agenda of the climate change nonsense.

00:22:44.360 And then they could start harping on, you know, the renewable sources.

00:22:51.160 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:22:53.460 Ah, yes, I absolutely love Thanksgiving, but I understand that extra, extra, extra big pants,

00:23:03.420 maybe at some shipping dock or a cargo ship, and you're not going to get them in time for

00:23:08.820 Thanksgiving. How are you going to eat all that delicious food and not have extra, extra large

00:23:14.540 pants? May I recommend put the pie down 300 calories of if you have a small fun slice.

00:23:23.460 But who does that? Built bars, on the other hand, have about 130 calories, only four grams

00:23:29.200 of sugar, plenty of protein. They're actually kind of good for you, you know, and they're

00:23:33.680 made with real chocolate. It's a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar. So instead of

00:23:39.360 maybe the coconut cream pie, get a coconut built bar, go to built.com, use the promo code

00:23:44.940 Beck15, get 15% off your order using the promo code Beck15 at built.com. 15% off promo code

00:23:56.180 Making socialists question their life choices. This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:24:01.700 Stick around. More after the break.

00:24:12.640 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today. 888-727-BECK as we head into Thanksgiving weekend. Thanksgiving

00:24:20.060 day, Thanksgiving weekend. And unfortunately, Jeffy joins us to ruin it all.

00:24:26.840 You pronounced fortunately wrong. You said unfortunately.

00:24:29.340 Oh, did I? Is that what happened? Weird. That's weird, isn't it? Huh? Yeah. Not really,

00:24:34.580 when you think about it. Oh, happy Thanksgiving. Good to see you.

00:24:40.240 Yeah, you too. I mean, not a lot. Sort of. You too. Yeah, except for not. A lot. Okay.

00:24:46.140 Jeffy, of course, of the Chewing the Fat podcast, where it's an unfortunately titled name. Some

00:24:52.340 people have said, you know, hey, I mean, the host of the podcast is also overweight. Yeah,

00:25:02.380 yeah. Yeah, fat. And then chewing the fat is like just an, it's a name that. Sort of a play 0.90

00:25:06.780 on, you know, it's an actual expression that we're just chewing the fat. Yeah, right.

00:25:10.860 But, but, but just coincidentally. Something else coincidentally goes into it. It's like

00:25:15.000 a double entendre. Yeah. So it could also have another meaning in there somewhere. I don't

00:25:22.080 know who came up with that name. It's sad though. But it's sad. You can see it. It sounds

00:25:27.600 like they might've been poking sort of fun at Jeffy. I hope that's not. I hope that's not

00:25:33.300 the case. I really do. I hope it's not. Cause I don't want to be bullied or. Yeah, no,

00:25:38.720 that would be bad. So what can we learn about on chewing the fat today? Well, one of the

00:25:42.340 things that we can learn about is preparedness. I mean, this network, uh, the show chewing

00:25:48.380 the fat, my show is, uh, one of the things that I like to talk about is preparedness.

00:25:52.780 And one of the things you're known, Mr. Prepared. Thank you. I am. Yeah. Yeah. I am. So

00:25:59.520 if you, you know, I don't know if you've thought about what you would do. A lot of people would

00:26:02.340 think Glenn when they're thinking preparedness, but no, I said, I mentioned this network in this

00:26:07.440 show. I'm just latching onto the preparedness handle. Okay. Okay. So let's say an armored

00:26:13.160 truck spills cash all over the interstate. Yes. I mean, I, how many times have you traveled

00:26:18.960 by an armored truck and tried to psychically will that door to supply open bags full of

00:26:24.500 cash? Am I the only one that does that? Okay. Well, it actually happened again in California

00:26:31.200 less than a week ago. Yeah. In San Diego. And there was cash all over the freeway.

00:26:37.540 Thousands of dollars. Amazing. Thousands of dollars. This girl actually, uh, you know,

00:26:42.480 recorded her Tik TOK video about it. This is the most insane thing I've ever seen. Someone

00:26:48.400 dropped money all over the freeway. San Diego has shut down. Literally it has shut down. Look

00:26:54.780 at the freeway right now. Oh my God. Hey idiots. Stop freaking recording a Tik TOK and pick 0.99

00:27:01.140 up the cash. Yeah. And many, many were only a couple of people got arrested because they

00:27:06.640 locked themselves out of their car. Idiots. Uh, why did they get arrested for locking themselves 1.00

00:27:11.300 out of their car? Because they had pockets full of cash on them and they couldn't get in

00:27:15.400 their car and get out of there. But do you take, don't you take the money out? Now, wait,

00:27:20.120 is it illegal if there's money all over the freeway to stop and pick it up? That's illegal.

00:27:24.620 Yes. You're not supposed to pick it up. It's not your money. What do you mean? It's not your

00:27:27.480 money. Well, it might be, but I'm returning it. I would of course return it to the Brinks 0.80

00:27:32.480 truck. That's what I'm saying. Be prepared. Right. That's the, that's the, when the cop says,

00:27:36.780 Hey, do you have cash in your, from the freeway plan? Yes, I've got freeway cash, but I was

00:27:40.720 going to return it to the, to the Brinks truck. Take as much as you can. And they even say, 0.79

00:27:46.100 if you have it, you need to return it. And a couple of people obviously have listened

00:27:49.760 to chewing the fat because they did. It says in the story how a couple of people have returned

00:27:54.160 the money, but that's the plan. Take as much as you can and immediately go to the police

00:27:59.080 department. Not there, not the Brinks truck driver who decided that, Oh, it's too much 0.99

00:28:04.720 money. I can't pick it up. I just let it blow around for a while. We'll get the police here

00:28:08.440 and pick it up. Wait a minute. But what do you mean? This seems oddly virtuous from Jeff Fisher.

00:28:14.880 Well, among the worst people on the planet, there's more to this story, right? Now we're

00:28:20.640 about to hear the rest of the story. You're not going to return it all. Right. You're

00:28:26.360 going to return 20 bucks. You go right to the police department. I got carried away. You're

00:28:32.680 right. Yeah. I may be on video out there. You know, somebody may have recorded me picking

00:28:36.360 up some money. I, I got carried away here. Here's my a hundred bucks. I picked up. Sorry.

00:28:42.440 And the rest is yours. You're good after that. You've returned it. You, even if they come

00:28:47.920 knocking again, we just want to be sure you picked up money. I gave, I turned it in. You

00:28:51.520 saw, I wrote it down. You've got my picture. We're good. Right. You're all good. And you're

00:28:56.640 home free. Then the money is all yours. So be prepared at all times. I do not give thanks

00:29:04.560 for you, for you, Jeffy. This is, I will be dishonesty. That's what it is. It's not dishonesty.

00:29:11.200 I'll not abide it. I won't abide it. You pick up a thousand, return 50, and then you keep

00:29:17.060 pocket the rest. Absolutely. That's your idea of preparedness because you never know when

00:29:22.460 you run into a Brinks truck that dumps cash. This is, this is the financial advice. This

00:29:26.980 is how you got to the position you're in today. The lofty position today. Yeah. You're welcome.

00:29:34.960 Okay. It might not be a Brinks truck. You might, you might just find, you know, cash in a, in

00:29:41.800 a container. What about the idea of giving it all back because it's the right thing to

00:29:46.380 do? Ooh, Stu. Ooh. Oh, I mean, it's not your fault that someone lost it. So I mean,

00:29:56.980 no, it's your fault for picking it up. No, when it's not, as you said at the beginning,

00:30:01.160 it's not yours. No, it's not. It belongs to the bank. Right. Brinks truck. Yeah. Somebody 0.81

00:30:06.960 who deposited that money into the bank. And it might've been a lot of times those Brinks 1.00

00:30:10.800 trucks are just taking money to go be burned somewhere, destroyed. It's old money. So what?

00:30:16.960 So what? No, no, no, that's not what happens. That's how you justify it. Cause it may be getting

00:30:22.380 reserved. I know. Yeah. Brinks trucks. Don't do that. I do. What else do you have?

00:30:30.500 I just a quick picture. I do. We did this on a Pat show this morning and I want one

00:30:35.400 desperately. The Guinness world book of record, uh, set a new record for the Nerf gun

00:30:40.400 and it's a 12 feet six. Look at that. It is awesome. And it's powerful. Like crazy.

00:30:47.860 Power. The 3d printed caps, 12 inch darts. Some of the speeds for the full dart and full

00:30:54.700 power is 50 miles an hour. Travels up to 250 feet. I want one to roll out of my garage.

00:31:00.600 Uh, now goes through a cinder block. Really? Yeah. Full power. Broke a cinder. Full power

00:31:06.100 with the 12 inch darts and the 3d caps. It'll go through walls. It'll go through a cinder

00:31:11.040 block. It's pretty amazing. What could possibly go wrong? Not a single thing. I can't think

00:31:16.120 of anything that could go wrong there. Now my mom would say you could put an eye out. Yeah.

00:31:21.940 You could put a whole head out. You could do a lot more than that. Yeah, you could. Yeah.

00:31:25.440 You'd hurt somebody bad. Yeah. I mean, little Billy would go with injuries, man. Yeah. I don't

00:31:31.480 know if you survive that. The 50 miles an hour, that thing, when it goes through a cinder

00:31:35.400 block, that'd do some serious damage. If you were that close. To a human body. Yeah.

00:31:39.860 I mean, if it's fired at close range. Yeah. I mean, if you're 200 feet away. If the kid's

00:31:44.220 on the other side of the yard, he's going to get bruised. It'll just sting a little

00:31:46.840 bit. Like maybe break a bone or cause some kidney damage. Oh yeah. Concussion. Don't worry

00:31:54.360 about it. No big deal. No big deal. Yeah, you're fine. Walk it off. Walk it off. Can we talk

00:32:03.500 about the little heart hero girl in Florida to in West Palm, the nine year old girl that

00:32:08.660 punched the mugger? So there was a mugging in West Palm. And why are you? I was amazed

00:32:17.080 that I can just hear the skepticism dripping off of you. There's no skepticism. The girl's 0.99

00:32:22.700 a hero. It's a nine year old girl. Her mom. You're going to take the pro burglar side of

00:32:27.220 the story, aren't you? No, I am not. No. How dare you? Now, now you, now you. How could

00:32:35.120 you possibly think ill of him? You're right. You're starting to make me angry. Okay. I

00:32:38.980 think we have the video and you see the mugger come out of the store and take off after the

00:32:45.080 mom and he's going to try attempt to grab her purse. A little girl comes around from behind 1.00

00:32:49.460 the store, punches him. Nine year old girl punches him, fights him, kind of shocks him back. 0.99

00:32:53.740 And then he takes off running, right? He takes off. He grabs the purse and takes off running.

00:32:58.300 The nine year old girl then chases him for several blocks, but doesn't catch him. That's crazy.

00:33:05.360 Right. I mean, it shouldn't have done that. Amazing. Amazing that this nine year old girl,

00:33:10.140 now she's being, she got a plaque for being a hero and she got some target gift card. I don't know for

00:33:16.880 how much they didn't say got to be at least a hundred bucks, right? You don't get a target card for

00:33:21.080 less than a hundred bucks. I think it's impossible. So, but they're treating this girl as a hero. Yes. All right. Now

00:33:28.620 the burglar got away with the purse. Okay. So the burglar got away with the purse. They,

00:33:39.080 they took a couple of days, but they caught the guy. Okay. It doesn't say if what items that were

00:33:45.440 returned. I mean, she had cell phone gum, several bank cards, a wallet, $40 in cash and a concealed

00:33:55.540 carry permit. Apparently she wasn't concealed carrying that day. Is it possible that this

00:34:02.840 burglar was just very well prepared and said, Hey, look, I got a little carried away and I got a

00:34:09.160 purse here, but this is all that's left inside. Is it possible they were prepared? No, that's what

00:34:15.640 she said was in her purse. No, I know. But is it possible that, you know, maybe he was going down

00:34:22.340 the Jeffy road. I mean, you are well connected to almost every criminal ring in the United States

00:34:27.580 of America. It's very possible. Your advice is penetrated. All I know is, is that they're,

00:34:33.880 they treat the little girl as, as a hero. And it was great that she protected her mom. No question.

00:34:38.200 The chasing after the burglar questionable, but protecting her mom and coming around the back

00:34:43.300 of the car and punching the guy. No problem. Seriously. Brave little girl. Absolutely. Wow.

00:34:47.560 Absolutely. But again, I don't know that I want my nine-year-old daughter. He got away with the

00:34:52.020 purse and it took him a couple of days to arrest him and get him back as good. And they're still

00:34:58.280 treating her as a hero. She, she helped her mom. That's why she's a hero. People don't, I know

00:35:06.460 you care about material goods in every single circumstance, but maybe that's not the most

00:35:12.180 important thing of the story or Jeffing. All I know is the guy got away with the purse

00:35:16.680 and now he's got a concealed carry permit, right? And some gum. This is so and gum. This

00:35:25.280 is the sort of analysis you will get on chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Good for the girl. 0.99

00:35:30.440 You know, if she did protect her mom, that's wonderful. Hero. Podcast is available, unfortunately,

00:37:20.260 Richard, it violates one of my rules of movies, which can't be before World War II. That is a rule

00:37:26.420 that you strictly follow. Yes. And I'll watch anything. You don't like medieval or period pieces,

00:37:30.820 right? Well, that's what the period is. I love them. The period is 1985. I'm fine with it.

00:37:35.820 I just don't want to go back to like 1402. Would that include a thing like Game of Thrones?

00:37:42.760 Yeah. You didn't watch it? I didn't watch it. On this show for Glenn, I did try to jump in on

00:37:48.160 season nine without watching any of the seasons. Oh, I remember that. Did you understand it? No. No.

00:37:53.540 You do not understand it at all. Really? You never picked up the vibe? I never understood who the

00:37:57.720 people were. I never really understood what was happening. It was very difficult. You should not

00:38:02.120 try to jump into a nine season show on season nine because they don't like set up who the characters

00:38:09.200 are again, which is understandable for most people. But it was an interesting experiment and one that

00:38:16.080 was an absolute failure. This is on, is it on HBO Max or maybe? I don't know. I can't remember,

00:38:23.760 but, uh, it's really good. What is it? It's a, uh, it's, it's a movie about the Williams family,

00:38:30.160 uh, Serena and Venus and Serena Williams. So they're not, they're not dad and how he, uh,

00:38:36.860 how he got them to where they are. And, you know, he had a plan and that's what he talks about the

00:38:41.940 whole time. He, he had a plan. He says that he put into place even before they were born for the way

00:38:48.040 their life was going to play out. And this guy was, I mean, it's amazing what he did with those

00:38:52.560 girls and how they rose to stardom. It's really cool. I have two little kids and I, it's some of

00:38:58.020 that stuff makes you nervous as a parent. Like, like, am I, you know, forcing them to do something

00:39:03.340 that they shouldn't be doing? Am I, you know, there, there was a, um, uh, a guy years and years

00:39:08.820 and years ago who had a theory that it was all nurture and no nature essentially in that debate

00:39:14.480 that you can essentially make your kid into anything if you, if you work hard enough.

00:39:19.260 And his idea was, I'm going to make them the best chess players in the world. So he literally

00:39:24.220 as an experiment went and made their kid just made them live and die chess all the time.

00:39:31.240 And like the worst one of the kids was like one of the grandmaster, like a grandmaster,

00:39:37.140 like legitimately, like they were all, like one of them was like the greatest player of all time

00:39:41.580 or one of the, like made a grandmaster before I think Bobby Fisher. Oh wow. Yeah. It wound up

00:39:47.560 being, it would seem that the kids would have to be into it and they were, which was interesting.

00:39:52.380 If you're, if they're into it, that's good. But if you're forcing them, probably not as good

00:39:57.660 now. And that's what, you know, Venus and Serena were obviously into tennis and they took to it

00:40:02.800 and they believed to their, their dad's motivation and inspiration and, uh, and all the things that he

00:40:09.360 was saying to them and it all came to fruition. You know, Serena became, uh, the, the biggest,

00:40:16.000 uh, earning tennis, women's tennis player of all time. And Serena is, uh, or Venus is number two.

00:40:24.160 Wow. Yeah. That's pretty good. Yeah. Usually when you have the two kids, it worked out kind of okay

00:40:28.560 for them. Yeah. They came out one and two all time. It's pretty good. You did a, probably did a good

00:40:32.540 job at least as a tennis coach. Did they present him as a good dad? Yes. Cause I know some of those

00:40:36.840 stories can turn dark, but I haven't heard that about the, he was loving, but firm, you know,

00:40:41.640 and, uh, really committed to them becoming really good tennis so they could get off the streets and,

00:40:46.720 you know, cause it came from Compton where they saw violence and drugs and all kinds of things

00:40:51.280 all the time. Not a lot of tennis courts in Compton to my knowledge. Not a lot of tennis courts. And

00:40:55.340 that was, uh, that was one of the deals. That's why he did that. This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:41:01.540 Um, we maybe should get into a little more Joe Biden today. Uh, he's pulling a run Burgundy

00:41:07.080 where he's just reading the teleprompter when it said, uh, end of quote, I'm not even surprised

00:41:15.360 at this point, uh, but he's sharp. He's sharp as a tack. Yeah. Uh, this guy, uh, is amazing. Um,

00:41:22.960 so quick witted and nimble of mind and body. If you look up his medical report, cause he just got

00:41:33.220 the big checkup, uh, and his doctor said he's got a noticeably stiffer gate in the last year.

00:41:40.480 And if you ever see him walk away from the podium and sometimes they do linger on him and show him

00:41:44.440 walking out the door cause he won't answer any questions. You see that he is looking a little

00:41:50.420 feeble. He's looking a little bit, I mean, he's walking slower and stiffer and not fluid

00:41:57.500 like his doctor mentioned. Plus the cognitive decline. I mean, it's becoming more and more

00:42:03.540 apparent to people, which is why more and more people are thinking this isn't the guy

00:42:08.920 who should be the leader of the free world.

00:42:10.880 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is

00:42:39.700 the Glenn Beck program. Ah, so much fun with the president of the United States and his quick

00:42:50.860 wit and sharp tongue coming up in a few minutes. Well, just one minute from now. Uh, we'll get

00:42:55.900 to that in about 60 seconds. Actually.

00:43:26.380 day was just like, Oh, I'm reading that. I'm reading a book. Which, which book? Oh, it's, um, it's the

00:43:30.360 Tuttle Twins one. I'm looking at it. She's like reading about like the fed. I mean, it's like,

00:43:36.220 and it's designed for kids. So they understand these stories. They're entertaining stories. They

00:43:39.660 want to read them. And in, in the process, they're also picking up a little information about the

00:43:45.980 foundations of this country, which is really important. You can give your kids and grandkids

00:44:24.340 President Biden had much more to say. He was talking about high gas prices. He was talking

00:44:30.160 about the grocery store shelves are going to be well stocked. Everything's fine. Don't worry about

00:44:33.760 it. And even the Walmart CEO said, Hey, everything's great. And the, the shelves are going to be stocked

00:44:42.880 and there's nothing to worry about. Uh, but okay. Gas prices a little bit high. Yeah, but that's not

00:44:48.600 his fault either. Um, I think you'll find nothing is Joe Biden's fault. Has he ever taken any

00:44:55.900 responsibility for anything? I don't think so. Afghanistan, everything was fine. In fact, 1.00

00:45:00.320 that went great. It was highly successful. It was either great or it was Trump's fault,

00:45:04.600 depending on the day or Trump's fault. Yeah. Uh, gas prices, not his deal. That's that's,

00:45:09.120 well, let's see who he blames here for gas prices. You know, today though, I want to address another

00:45:16.840 challenge that families are facing. And the one I think they're most focused on right now,

00:45:22.280 high gas prices. This is a problem, not just here in the United States, but around the world.

00:45:28.520 Okay. The price of gasoline has reached record levels recently in Europe and in Asia. In France,

00:45:34.760 at the end of the last month, it reached about $7 per gallon in Japan. It's about $5 and 50 cents

00:45:41.240 per gallon. The highest it's been in years. Of course, it's always painful when gas prices,

00:45:47.780 gas prices spike today. The price of gas in America on average is $3 and 40 cents a gallon in

00:45:54.600 California. It's much higher. The impact is real, but the fact is we faced even worse spikes before

00:46:01.040 just in the last decade. We saw it in 2012 when the price of gasoline hit $3 and 90 cents. And again,

00:46:08.960 who was president then? And who was vice president? We saw it in 2014 when it hit $3 and 69 cents. Remind

00:46:13.060 me again, president, vice president. And as recently as 2019, we saw it surpassed $3 in many places.

00:46:19.960 The fact is we always get through those spikes, but we're going to get through this one as well and

00:46:25.040 hopefully faster. Okay. But it doesn't mean we should just stand by idly and wait for prices to drop on

00:46:30.820 their own. Yeah. Right. It's funny because this, what he's going to do is this strategic oil

00:46:35.460 reserve. Yeah. SP, the petroleum reserve release three days, not, not even three, but almost three

00:46:44.080 days worth of oil. 55 million gallons, right? Isn't that what he's promising to release from the

00:46:49.500 reserve? That's right. 55 million gallons. We, we consume about 20 million gallons a day in the United

00:46:57.600 States. That's less than three days of oil consumption. What is that going to do? Almost

00:47:03.620 nothing. That's not going to do anything. What is that going to do? Uh, it's not going to drive the

00:47:08.160 price down. There's some, there's some analysis that said it could make gas prices drive, drop by

00:47:12.720 about 5 cents a gallon for a short time. Yeah. So they'll just go right back up. And then what do

00:47:19.680 you do? Do you release three more days and then three more after that? It's not going to, that's not,

00:47:24.260 it's not a solution to the problem. No. And look, he's obviously right. There's ups and downs with

00:47:31.420 gas prices. That's, that's not a surprise. Of course, one of the ways that you make the,

00:47:35.660 the downs outpace the ups is by adding to supply, not closing pipelines, not barring, you know,

00:47:44.260 drilling in area after area after area, not agreeing with insane protesters, um, that want to

00:47:54.480 screw our energy supply up and basically, you know, adopt their viewpoint that fossil fuels are so evil,

00:48:02.880 we need to get rid of them. I mean, you know, again, this, this, this new, if you cared about

00:48:06.840 energy prices and you wanted to spend $3.5 trillion on a new bill, you might target that toward

00:48:12.740 development of new energy sources, uh, not just solar panels, but actual fossil fuels that are

00:48:19.020 reliable and, and work. Right. So long-term he has a terrible strategy. Short-term, I don't know that

00:48:26.720 this is going to help, you know what I mean? Maybe it helps a little bit, but you know, I don't know

00:48:30.840 that it's, you know, obviously gas taxes are a, a much, a much, uh, bigger part of the, uh, of the

00:48:39.620 picture here. I mean, like France's gas, France's gas prices are $7 a gallon because their taxes are

00:48:46.260 ridiculously high. I mean, you know, governments all over the world manipulate gas prices, including

00:48:50.920 here in the United States. There's huge taxes on them. There's huge taxes all over the world.

00:48:55.040 I mean, and, and the opposite is true too. The, you know, the Venezuela, um, uh, situation is

00:49:00.360 interesting. They just had a 20 times gas price increase. It went up 20 times what it used to be.

00:49:09.700 Wow. It went from 0.5 cents a gallon to 10 cents a gallon in Venezuela.

00:49:16.040 That's outrageous. Outrageous. They're paying, they're paying 10 cents a gallon in Venezuela now.

00:49:21.120 Yes. Why are they paying 10 cents a gallon? Because they just are so good at refining oil? No, no. The

00:49:29.480 reason is because the government is subsidizing it. Yeah. Uh, in, in, in large part, all the way down

00:49:35.360 to almost zero. And of course they're upset about it. And governments manipulate these things all the

00:49:40.180 time. They can do some, uh, some things to make gas prices higher. Yes. It's a global market. So it does,

00:49:46.480 it is at some level, uh, controlled by supply and demand in that way that you can't control exactly,

00:49:53.220 but long-term you can. Can you imagine paying 10 cents a gallon for gas? My God. I, when I was

00:50:00.780 just starting to drive and this is in Montana. So gas prices were much lower than they were in other

00:50:07.940 parts of the, of the country at the time. Cause you know, this is the late 1800s. Um, so when I first

00:50:15.360 started to drive, I was paying 28 cents a gallon, 28 cents. Wow. But even then, even then that's

00:50:23.660 higher than Venezuela. That's almost three times the price that they're currently paying in

00:50:29.140 Venezuela. Well, up until this increase, they were playing, paying a half a cent per gallon.

00:50:36.100 Jeez. One half of one cent. If you got one gallon, how do you pay for that? Can I get a change

00:50:42.400 back for my, uh, my penny? That's a good point. Amazing. That's really something else. Uh, but

00:50:49.080 again, you see, but this isn't a good philosophy, obviously it's a country in ruins. And in some

00:50:56.020 part, because of strategies like this, you, you try to subsidize. Yeah. Socialism doesn't work as we all

00:51:02.480 are very aware outside of the white house. Yeah. And it's just too bad that we're in this position

00:51:08.500 that we're in because, uh, this is going to, it's not just gasoline prices that are going to take a

00:51:13.800 hit and that are taking hits. It's going to be the energy prices, the, the heating oil prices,

00:51:19.460 the natural gas, everything that heats your home for winter is going to go up this year. And it's

00:51:24.600 going to be a lot more expensive. And then they're going to tell you that, that climate change is

00:51:31.080 getting worse because we're using all of these fossil fuels. We could have, we could have helped

00:51:38.660 this situation, um, a long time ago, but we stopped doing something that, uh, would have mitigated the

00:51:48.120 problem. And that's building nuclear power plants. It's just a real shame that because of two events,

00:51:54.300 one was an actual real world thing, three mile Island. And the other was a, a Hollywood movie,

00:52:00.760 China syndrome with Jane Fonda between those two things. That pretty well put a stop to the 1.00

00:52:07.180 nuclear energy, uh, power plants being, being built in America. We, it scared the crap out of Americans

00:52:13.340 and then the environmentalists took off with it. And, and we're talking about how dangerous nuclear

00:52:18.740 power was. And so we didn't, we didn't build any more power plants. Uh, and we could have been in

00:52:28.240 a position right now where we're getting clean, renewable energy for everybody. Uh, by now we could

00:52:34.880 have had, we could have had just about all the renewable energy we need. And then that could get

00:52:40.080 us through until the solar and wind come through, but there's no alternative right now to oil.

00:52:44.620 Really? There's no alternative that will pick up the, that will fill the void that would be created

00:52:49.720 that is being created by them going off of fossil fuels before we have anything to replace fossil

00:52:54.960 fuels. Well, it shows two things too. Number one, they're not motivated by the things they say

00:52:58.440 they're motivated by. If you cared about the environment and you cared about emissions,

00:53:01.660 you'd be wildly embracing nuclear power. It's obvious you, this would be Michael Schellenberger's

00:53:07.040 make this point. Um, uh, famously he's a author and he's not a right wing guy. No, no, he was,

00:53:12.960 he was in the environmental movement for a long time and he's embraced nuclear energy. Patrick

00:53:18.660 Moore is another guy who's, who's sort of the same story. Um, and so if they actually cared

00:53:23.400 about the environment and emissions, they would obviously embrace nuclear power. Well, except

00:53:28.220 for the fact that three mile Island killed so many millions of Americans. Yeah, no, that's

00:53:33.040 not true. That's, that's not true. Uh, three mile Island was in fact the complete opposite

00:53:38.320 of a catastrophe. It was a success story because of the, the fail safe measures they put in

00:53:45.080 place for three mile Island. It worked out pretty well. Worked out. I mean, yeah, but I

00:53:49.140 mean the, the radiation that was released that, that, uh, no, you know, gave so many Americans

00:53:55.160 cancer. The concrete containment structure did just what it was designed to do. Prevent radiation

00:54:00.060 from escaping into the environment. And although the reactor itself was crippled, there were no

00:54:04.100 injury or death among nuclear workers or nearby residents. But what you're avoiding is the radiation

00:54:09.640 that did, that did sneak out a three mile Island. That was the equivalent of a chest X-ray. Yes. That

00:54:17.120 is the maximum impact that hit anyone. A whole chest X-ray. One chest X-ray. Not half a chest X-ray.

00:54:24.340 Which you would go and do at the doctors. If that, that chest X-ray, that is the maximum amount of

00:54:29.820 radiation. And of course, you know, Chernobyl famously, you know, they said it was going to kill

00:54:33.840 500,000 people and it killed. What was it? 53 or 54. They think some, there will be some deaths down

00:54:40.400 the road, um, due to cancer, um, that was developed at that period. Although it is, they don't believe

00:54:46.300 it's going to be anywhere near the numbers they were saying they were going to, uh, a lot of it was

00:54:50.840 because, um, at the time kids drank some contaminated milk. Now that is a decision, of course, not

00:54:57.540 necessarily directly tied to the Chernobyl incident, as much as it's tied to the Soviet government

00:55:03.160 who kept having their, you know, the kids in the area drink contaminated milk. Not a good idea,

00:55:10.760 obviously. Uh, however, uh, you know, they, I mean, there, there, there is a, there are scientists

00:55:16.680 who say, you know what, actually the whole evacuation period, uh, process was, was as damaging as the

00:55:23.440 incident. And maybe we shouldn't have evacuated that area at all. Fukushima, that there's no doubt

00:55:28.020 about it. Fukushima was a situation where they, there was much more damage done by the evacuation

00:55:34.880 than the actual quote unquote crisis. Now, all of this is to say it's, it's dual, it's a sort of a

00:55:42.780 dual track here because number one, if they actually believe the environment, they would be doing

00:55:47.880 different things. If they actually believe we needed to solve this and it wasn't about power and all the

00:55:53.060 other things, they would be embracing nuclear power. Secondarily, it also shows how dumb they are 1.00

00:55:57.660 because if they had embraced nuclear power long ago, it would make it so much easier for us to 0.99

00:56:03.920 transition to things like electric cars. We, we would have unlimited supplies of energy that were

00:56:10.920 at zero emissions and we wouldn't, it would be easy to do those things. Instead, we not only have to

00:56:17.180 build the infrastructure for the, to, for the charging ports and all the things that they want to jam

00:56:21.700 into these new Biden bills. But in addition to that, we have to massively expand our capacity

00:56:27.960 for electricity. If you put all of the cars on top of the electric grid, which is already crappy,

00:56:35.800 it's going to be a major problem. If we had updated at gone with nuclear a long time ago,

00:56:42.700 we would not have those problems. It would be a much easier transition. So they've thwarted their own

00:56:48.480 attempts here, which shows not only are they lying about their motivations, they're also dumb. 0.99

00:56:56.280 So that's the summary. Yeah. And it, it's true. Sadly, it's, it's, it's true. So as a result, 0.99

00:57:02.220 we get, is it less than 20% of our energy comes from nuclear? I think it's a little bit less

00:57:07.480 because they keep closing those plants down. They just closed one down in New York. Um, now France 0.99

00:57:11.280 is something at 80%. France. Yeah. They didn't, they didn't cave like we did. Well, they have now.

00:57:16.840 Have they really? Yeah. And they're, they're saying they want to reduce. Are they shutting down some of

00:57:19.640 their plans? They want to reduce their, their. Why would you do that? I don't know. It's working great.

00:57:23.320 It's working great. And it's, have you heard of a nuclear disaster in France? I certainly haven't.

00:57:27.720 Nope. Wow. They just have, they, again, these are decisions made based on environmental activists

00:57:34.260 who, who make up a new narrative every two weeks. Remember their narrative not too long ago was

00:57:40.800 biofuels. I mean, they were embracing, you know, uh, ethanol, corn-based ethanol. That was their big

00:57:46.960 push. That went away. It was, it was, they were anti-nuclear. They have now turned on large solar and

00:57:55.000 wind projects as well. All over the world. They're turning against those projects that they

00:58:00.540 previously recommended. What are you going to do instead? What are you going to do?

00:58:05.540 They want to deconstruct civilization. A lot of them do. I mean, the real brains behind a lot of

00:58:10.000 these operations, that's what their goal is. There are, there are certainly people who just want to,

00:58:14.940 you know, want to be green and want to do these things and they think they're a good idea, you know.

00:58:19.620 But the real brains behind these are the activists and there is a, they want to de-industrialize

00:58:26.440 the human experience. They want the stupid song. You know, they want to, what was it? 1.00

00:58:32.480 A hole in the sky where a tree once was? No, not that one. Somebody's making money?

00:58:36.040 That's a great one. Oh, they're paving paradise to put up a parking lot. They want, they want that

00:58:40.940 to be a legitimate governing philosophy. Hey, farmer, farmer, put down your DDT. Forget about the

00:58:47.000 worms. Give me the birds and bees or whatever that line is. Yes. Yeah. Dumb. It's a dumb line,

00:58:53.900 but that is what they want. That is just a song version of the society they see. And you know 0.99

00:58:59.660 what? When I pull into a Walmart, when I go to a giant store that has got a giant concrete parking

00:59:05.660 lot, I don't say, I wish there were flowers there. I say, thank God I can park. You don't?

00:59:10.260 No. Wow. That shows what an evil bastard you are. I say, I wish they would add more parking so I

00:59:14.880 could get closer to this stupid store. No, they have plenty of parking. It's just that 1.00

00:59:20.620 it's all for handicapped people. So that's why you're not able to park there close to the store. 1.00

01:00:46.280 there's not a high toll of life typically associated with it. And that's the nuclear power thing is,

01:00:53.240 of course, just scaremongering. But zero people have died when it comes to nuclear power here in

01:00:59.320 the United States. In the United States, yeah. However, between, this is a little bit of an

01:01:03.760 old stat, so this number's probably a little higher now, but between 1970 and 2010, 35 people

01:01:09.000 died associated with wind turbines in the United States. Really? Really? Now, I know, I remember

01:01:16.180 watching Indiana Jones with the propeller. Oh, it's got to be a lot higher than that. Now. It's got to be.

01:01:20.860 In the last 11 years? I mean, I'm sure it's gone up, right? We have a lot more wind power. Yes.

01:01:25.220 Now, here in the U.S. Yeah. No, that does not, again, people die exploring. Obviously,

01:01:30.800 we've seen people die in oil, you know, drilling accidents. We've seen certainly a lot of people

01:01:36.240 die from coal because the Chinese government's like, oh, wait, were you done drilling? Okay,

01:01:40.600 just seal the mine up with all the people inside. That is, so people do die when it comes to,

01:01:46.180 particularly coal mining is pretty common around the world. However, nuclear power, not so common.

01:01:52.600 And wind does have a death toll to it. Now, of course, this says nothing about the poor birds,

01:02:00.980 which the only thing worse than Thanksgiving for birds are wind turbines.

01:02:05.120 Don't they say millions of birds die from these every year? I don't know what the actual number is.

01:02:09.560 It's huge. It's a really big number. It's an uncomfortable number. Yeah, it is. It is. And

01:02:15.780 when you see the turbines, have you ever driven through Oklahoma, parts of Oklahoma? They got wind

01:02:22.540 turbines all over the place. If you drive through like parts of Texas towards West Texas, wind turbines

01:02:31.500 everywhere. First of all, they're unsightly. Secondly, they kill birds. I don't know how the

01:02:37.160 environmentalists are okay with it all. How is that all right? And nobody wants these turbines

01:02:45.780 in their own backyard. Nobody wants that. I think they look kind of cool sometimes, honestly, when

01:02:50.500 they're in the right setting. Would you want it in your backyard? No, I would not want it in my

01:02:54.840 backyard. No. Okay. But I do think they're, they are kind of cool looking. Across the street. Let's

01:02:59.300 say it's across the street from your backyard. Absolutely. You'd be okay with that? Yes. I want them all

01:03:03.080 right there. I mean, I think like you're driving in the middle of a field. I mean, that's not where

01:03:06.440 they put them typically. Now we have seen they put them in neighborhoods at times and with real

01:03:10.420 problems. They've caused real problems there. But if they're in the middle of nowhere, look, I don't

01:03:14.400 think wind power is the enemy per se. If eventually it becomes competitive and it's, they can find a way

01:03:20.500 to make it reliable. Great. But right now it's not there. We've always, always said that. If you've got an

01:03:25.540 alternative to the fossil fuel, okay, fine, let's do it. But there's nothing that can fill the void.

01:03:33.080 They think about 300,000 birds annually killed by wind turbines. However, 3 billion birds annually

01:03:38.840 killed by cats. This is the Glenn Beck Program. I have some good news going to help make your

01:05:01.460 Pat Gray, stupid gear for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program. You can listen to my show, Pat Gray Unleashed 0.98

01:05:15.480 at eight o'clock Eastern. And anytime for each of those shows, anytime you want on podcast.

01:05:22.940 And as we approach Black Friday as well, don't forget to load up with your merch for Christmas.

01:05:27.380 We have a couple of ugly Christmas sweaters. We have a Santifa Claus, the combination of Santa Claus 0.99

01:05:32.440 and Antifa. We have a Christmas re-education training or CRT where we can learn, you know,

01:05:40.280 the real things there. That's another one. We have the Let's Go Brandon sweaters as well.

01:05:43.700 Also, I have this one that I'm wearing today, which is a t-shirt that just says, learn,

01:05:47.420 then protest. The order is important.

01:05:53.080 Because we see so often the protesting seems to happen before the learning, Pat.

01:05:57.880 And yes, those are two things you can do, but you learn and then you identify whether it's worth

01:06:04.440 protesting. Then you protest if it happens to clear that bar.

01:06:08.880 Yeah, but what if I just hear a friend that there's been a massive injustice and I need

01:06:13.260 to run out and support that friend as we go out and protest?

01:06:17.120 You mean like everybody on the Kyle Rittenhouse case, for example?

01:06:20.660 Yes, exactly.

01:06:21.140 In the media?

01:06:21.640 Exactly.

01:06:22.160 No, you learn about the case, then you comment on it.

01:06:25.140 Weird.

01:06:25.660 Or you protest it if it's worthy of protest.

01:06:28.020 That would have been a really good process for the president to pay attention to, right?

01:06:32.640 Because he didn't learn and then he spoke.

01:06:37.180 So you could really do that process with speaking out as a politician as well because he didn't

01:06:42.380 learn and then he started running his mouth off on what a white supremacist Kyle Rittenhouse

01:06:47.800 is.

01:06:48.160 Maybe we should do a learn, then speak.

01:06:50.300 The order is important because we have learn, then vote.

01:06:54.300 I like that.

01:06:54.780 The order is important.

01:06:55.840 Learn, then speak is a pretty good, that's a good safety tip as well.

01:06:59.420 I do like that.

01:07:00.140 You can go to shop.blazemedia.com.

01:07:03.260 If you use the code stew20 or pat20 or glenn20, you can get 20% off your merchandise now.

01:07:10.040 Kind of a Black Friday holiday sale.

01:07:12.740 And if you have someone who needs to hear the message, you know, learn, then protest.

01:07:17.680 The order is important.

01:07:19.960 Maybe you could pick one of those up for the holidays.

01:07:22.240 Okay.

01:07:23.100 So Jen Psaki was asked about Biden calling Rittenhouse a white supremacist.

01:07:28.140 And here's what she had to say about that.

01:07:32.240 Would the president ever apologize to the acquitted Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse for

01:07:37.800 suggesting online and on TV that he is a white supremacist?

01:07:42.460 Well, let's be clear what we're talking about here.

01:07:45.240 This is about a campaign video released last year that used President Trump's own words

01:07:51.220 during a debate as he refused to condemn white supremacists and militia groups.

01:07:55.660 And President Trump, as we know from history, and as many of you covered, didn't just refuse

01:08:00.100 to condemn militia groups on the debate stage.

01:08:02.040 He actively encouraged them throughout his presidency.

01:08:05.620 So, you know, what we've seen are the tragic consequences of that.

01:08:09.460 When people think it's okay to take the law into their own hands instead of allowing law

01:08:13.520 enforcement to do its job.

01:08:15.340 And the president believes in condemning hatred, division, and violence.

01:08:18.820 That's exactly what was done in that video.

01:08:20.580 But if you're saying that it was just a campaign video, it wasn't.

01:08:24.060 The president also gave an interview where he said this Rittenhouse was part of a militia

01:08:28.320 coming out of Illinois.

01:08:29.860 Have you ever heard this president referring to Trump say one negative thing about white

01:08:32.860 supremacists?

01:08:33.740 These are all things.

01:08:34.940 None of this was proven in the trial.

01:08:37.660 And Kyle Rittenhouse is saying that the president had actual malice in defaming his character.

01:08:43.040 Is that what happened here?

01:08:44.800 The president spoke to the verdict last week.

01:08:47.780 He has obviously condemned the hatred and division and violence we've seen around the

01:08:53.000 country by groups like the Proud Boys and groups that that individual has posed in photos

01:08:58.580 with.

01:08:59.260 But beyond that, I'll leave it to his comments around the verdict.

01:09:03.480 Despicable. 0.89

01:09:04.520 These people are the worst people to ever govern this nation. 1.00

01:09:08.700 These are despicable people. 0.95

01:09:11.920 She obviously wouldn't answer the question, which was, is the president going to, is he 0.81

01:09:19.020 ever going to apologize for referring to Kyle Rittenhouse as a white supremacist when he isn't

01:09:25.720 one?

01:09:26.540 When there's no evidence of any of that being the case?

01:09:29.900 Well, President Trump, blah, blah, blah.

01:09:33.220 It's just, it's outrageous.

01:09:38.140 It's just, wow.

01:09:39.720 I like the distinction, however, that Jen Psaki tried to make there, that it wasn't Joe Biden.

01:09:45.120 It was Joe Biden's campaign.

01:09:47.460 What kind of distinction is that?

01:09:50.180 None.

01:09:51.260 None.

01:09:51.440 Because don't you have to approve of the campaign material?

01:09:54.900 I'm Joe Biden and I approve this message.

01:09:57.220 Right?

01:09:57.420 That's how that works.

01:09:58.840 Now, this was released online, I guess.

01:10:01.420 And I don't, I mean, I don't know if that's the only, the only time that they talked about

01:10:09.100 this and called Kyle Rittenhouse a white supremacist.

01:10:12.520 Well, no.

01:10:12.900 Peter Doocy named another instance where he, he brought it up.

01:10:18.020 And it's, it's, it's been stunning to me.

01:10:23.320 What a great job Peter Doocy has done.

01:10:25.380 He's been really good.

01:10:28.000 This seems to be the case over and over again.

01:10:30.020 Every democratic administration, there's one journalist who actually asks tough questions.

01:10:34.980 Yeah.

01:10:35.600 And this time, I guess it's going to be Peter Doocy.

01:10:38.420 Certainly has been so far.

01:10:39.720 Yeah.

01:10:40.100 It's interesting.

01:10:40.700 And he's just about the only one.

01:10:42.020 Every once in a while, somebody else will step up.

01:10:44.660 Yep.

01:10:44.840 But almost every day, it's Peter Doocy.

01:10:47.060 I mean, and this is an easy one, you know, like, look, there's no reason.

01:10:51.440 You can't just say, look, we, we had information early and, you know, maybe we shouldn't have

01:10:55.460 commented on it at all.

01:10:56.540 And obviously that's the right answer, right?

01:10:58.280 But they will not own up to anything.

01:10:59.900 They can't admit it.

01:10:59.920 They won't, they won't own up to a single thing.

01:11:02.860 They take no responsibility for anything that ever comes out of their mouth or any policy

01:11:07.560 that's gone bad, including up to and including Afghanistan, which was such an unmitigated 0.99

01:11:13.840 disaster that our allies knew it.

01:11:16.780 Democrats know it.

01:11:18.160 Everybody knows it.

01:11:19.580 And they won't even own up to that.

01:11:21.220 To them, that was an unqualified success.

01:11:23.040 And I'll remind people that Jen Psaki works for you. 1.00

01:11:28.700 Jen Psaki does not work for Biden's campaign.

01:11:32.620 Jen Psaki does not even work for Joe Biden, really.

01:11:37.020 That is a position that was designed to help communicate to the American people what's going

01:11:43.320 on and the understanding of the administration a little bit better.

01:11:47.240 How do we pass this information?

01:11:49.120 We can't have the president out there doing press conferences every day.

01:11:51.640 What if we put that we have a press secretary that comes out and helps people understand

01:11:55.960 what is going on?

01:11:57.020 Instead, it is turned into a role on both sides of the aisle that is just you're really

01:12:02.960 terrible PR person, a person who constantly lies to you all the time, a person who, you 0.69

01:12:13.540 know, is like a hundred times worse than the shadiest tobacco executive PR person that comes

01:12:21.300 out and says, absolutely, there's no tie at all to lung cancer.

01:12:25.140 That person is a saint compared to the role that the White House press secretary has turned

01:12:32.840 into.

01:12:33.240 It is just despicable.

01:12:35.040 And you're paying for it.

01:12:36.080 And it should change.

01:12:37.920 You know, you want to have the administration hire someone, an outside PR person who can

01:12:43.540 do their spin for them.

01:12:44.940 Fine.

01:12:46.060 But it should not be a part of our government.

01:12:48.280 It should not be something that we're paying for.

01:12:50.580 It should not be the White House press secretary.

01:12:52.560 The White House press secretary should bore you to tears because they just give you statements

01:12:57.100 and they try to give you the actual truth.

01:13:01.100 That's the role it's supposed to be.

01:13:02.620 It's not supposed to be like this.

01:13:04.100 No, it's not. 0.98

01:13:05.560 But we've gotten to the point where they're such low life scumbags that when she's asked 0.99

01:13:11.120 about the president calling an 18 year old kid a white supremacist, what she does is ignore 0.99

01:13:18.820 the question about the president and turn it around on the 18 year old kid by saying that

01:13:23.880 we've denounced groups like he posed for pictures with.

01:13:28.420 Oh, gosh.

01:13:28.880 That is despicable.

01:13:29.740 The kid didn't know if they're proud boys.

01:13:32.160 Nobody really knows if they're proud boys or not.

01:13:35.720 The media has claimed that he went to a bar two days after he was released on bail with

01:13:41.440 his mom and some other friends.

01:13:44.300 And that's legal to do in Wisconsin.

01:13:47.480 I don't know if he drank or not because I don't think that's legal for an 18 year old.

01:13:51.820 But you can go to the bar with your mom, apparently, when you're 18.

01:13:55.000 So he did.

01:13:56.740 And at that bar, there were a couple of guys that wanted a selfie with him and he did it.

01:14:03.200 I mean, he didn't.

01:14:04.440 These are not his friends.

01:14:05.700 He doesn't hang out with them.

01:14:07.240 This is not his group.

01:14:08.480 He doesn't associate with it.

01:14:10.000 And yet she's trying to paint him as the white supremacist because he he posed for pictures

01:14:16.000 with with proud boys.

01:14:17.960 And I love to see that standard apply to Democratic politicians.

01:14:20.660 They posed they have meetings with Louis Farrakhan, right? 0.82

01:14:24.460 They meet with the head of Syria, anti-Semite, not to mention racist.

01:14:29.920 Let's go through Joe Biden's greeting lines and pick every person out of there and will

01:14:34.220 fairly apply their views to Joe Biden.

01:14:37.820 That's a really rational way of doing things.

01:14:41.380 By the way, we should also point out that Kyle Rittenhouse says he was there because his

01:14:45.260 attorneys told him to go.

01:14:46.580 And the early attorneys, which got were later fired, including Lin Wood.

01:14:53.500 And if you're worried about the multiple trillions of dollars we're spending currently, you can

01:14:58.520 give a nice big thank you note to Lin Wood, who went around Georgia telling everyone not

01:15:02.940 to vote.

01:15:04.040 So thanks a lot for that.

01:15:06.340 That was it was a fantastic strategy and it worked out really well because with even one

01:15:11.180 of those two races, we wouldn't have these multiple trillions of dollars and all of the

01:15:15.240 Green New Deal nonsense and all the crap that's flying out the door right now, we wouldn't 0.97

01:15:19.160 have it with either even one of those two. 0.97

01:15:21.460 And of course, now it seems to be acceptable.

01:15:24.700 We've seen many, many people in Congress or Republicans across the board say, OK, Lin Wood,

01:15:31.740 obviously not.

01:15:32.640 This is not a good direction to go.

01:15:34.760 But at the time, many people embraced his nonsense and people in Georgia.

01:15:41.680 I don't think people knew who he really was.

01:15:43.240 No.

01:15:43.740 People thought he was a Republican operative, thought he was a conservative kind of guy.

01:15:49.300 Yeah, no, no, no.

01:15:50.340 Not at all.

01:15:51.160 It's the entire history is working for the left.

01:15:53.360 And I don't know if he's just gone completely insane.

01:15:55.300 There's also an argument there on that.

01:15:57.400 I mean, it's just there kind of is. 0.96

01:15:58.980 He may have just been a Democrat who's gone insane and now just says all sorts of crazy

01:16:02.860 things, but because he was he had a lot of attention and he is a high profile lawyer that

01:16:08.320 does have a legitimately impressive legal career.

01:16:12.200 He was involved early on with Rittenhouse because they were able to raise a lot of money

01:16:17.600 and they brought him in.

01:16:19.380 And as Rittenhouse said later on, he I mean, he said in this in the Tucker Carlson.

01:16:24.520 He did that he was he was raising money more for himself than he was for for Kyle.

01:16:29.420 And according to Kyle Rittenhouse, Kyle was kept in jail for three months because they

01:16:34.780 wanted to continue raising money off of the fact that he was in jail and then keep it.

01:16:38.960 Now, of course, I, you know, I don't know all the inner workings of this, but, you know,

01:16:42.660 there's no motivation for Rittenhouse to be bashing his own lawyers.

01:16:45.580 He won.

01:16:46.540 Right.

01:16:47.020 Right.

01:16:47.320 Now, those people were thrown off the case early on.

01:16:50.760 And a lot of that was as as Kyle's later attorney said, we weren't we wanted to get Kyle out

01:16:58.460 of jail.

01:16:59.020 We wanted to get him so he was not spending the rest of his life in prison.

01:17:02.700 We this was not a call.

01:17:04.700 We were not trying to make this us against the system or us trying to enrich ourselves.

01:17:08.820 We wanted to get Kyle off because obviously it was self-defense and that worked.

01:17:14.300 The other side of this was much uglier.

01:17:16.480 And, you know, there's all sorts of ramifications, but one of the ramifications was that one

01:17:21.800 of the attorneys, Kyle Rittenhouse himself says, told them to go to this bar and told

01:17:27.520 him to meet with these guys and take pictures with these guys.

01:17:29.640 Yeah, that's Kyle Rittenhouse.

01:17:30.500 He's 17 years old.

01:17:32.240 And that turned out to be, you know, something the left is beating him with.

01:17:35.240 Yeah.

01:17:35.800 Triple eight, seven, two, seven, B.E.C.K.

01:17:38.420 More Pat and Stu for Glenn coming up.

01:17:42.300 All right.

01:17:42.740 If you haven't checked out Rectech yet, you got to try.

01:17:45.680 You got to try it.

01:17:46.480 But the time is now to check out Rectech.

01:17:48.660 You don't want to miss their Black Friday sale.

01:17:50.660 Serious grillers and smokers know all about this, that Rectech is the way to go.

01:18:58.280 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program on Thanksgiving Eve.

01:19:02.540 It's nice to have a Wednesday that really feels like a Friday and is sort of like, for most Americans, I think, it is kind of Friday, right?

01:19:11.600 When we have a four-day weekend coming up.

01:19:13.340 That's pretty awesome.

01:19:14.460 Well, you know, they have this thing and they do this every year where some big corporation comes out and says,

01:19:20.240 We will not open on Thanksgiving.

01:19:25.280 We shall not.

01:19:28.000 Target is doing it this year.

01:19:29.680 Yes.

01:19:30.580 We're not going to do it.

01:19:31.240 Because they're so woke.

01:19:32.360 Yeah.

01:19:32.740 Target is so woke.

01:19:33.580 And we will never open.

01:19:35.000 It's like, I never understand this argument.

01:19:37.580 Number one, you know, they're like, oh, you should spend time with your family. 1.00

01:19:40.800 Well, what if your family sucks? 1.00

01:19:42.260 Okay. 1.00

01:19:42.840 What if your family sucks? 1.00

01:19:45.080 What if you don't want to spend time with your family? 1.00

01:19:47.840 Do you have a choice whether to do that?

01:19:50.600 Or should Target tell me, should society shame me into staying in my home with my family if I don't want to?

01:20:00.340 And they're like, well, what about the people who work there?

01:20:02.720 Well, you know what?

01:20:03.620 Ask the people who work in retail if they want to make double time or time and a half to work on a holiday.

01:20:09.380 A lot of times they say, yes, they do.

01:20:11.780 And you know whose choice that should be?

01:20:13.420 Theirs, not yours. 0.97

01:20:15.420 I can't stand this idea that you're.

01:20:17.840 Oh, we have to shut down all of society. 0.80

01:20:20.140 And you're a bad, you're bad if you allow people to go out and shop.

01:20:25.620 I remember growing up, my family loved, it was mainly Black Friday, but like they loved going out.

01:20:32.480 It was a family event.

01:20:34.040 They would go out.

01:20:34.620 My grandma and my aunt would go out and shop all the time.

01:20:37.700 And it was like something they loved.

01:20:38.920 It was a tradition they loved doing together.

01:20:40.780 And now these corporations are like, oh, well, we're so woke.

01:20:43.040 We're not going to open because we care so much about our employees. 0.99

01:20:46.320 Bull crap. 0.99

01:20:47.720 You care about the publicity you're getting out of this. 1.00

01:20:50.440 I can't stand that.

01:20:51.960 Yeah. 0.99

01:20:52.640 And you're right about, I mean, Target is the biggest purveyor of bull crap right now. 0.99

01:20:59.300 Just stop it. 1.00

01:21:00.240 Just stop.

01:21:01.020 Just stop.

01:21:01.620 I mean, like.

01:21:02.040 I know you're woke and I know you support every single cause in the left.

01:21:07.720 I know.

01:21:08.660 It's so great.

01:21:09.660 Including women being subjected to men coming into the bathroom if they identify as women.

01:21:17.020 Everything.

01:21:17.680 Every single cause you support.

01:21:19.420 That's great.

01:21:20.420 And now you're not going to make your employees work.

01:21:22.740 That's beautiful.

01:21:24.500 But like, oh, God.

01:21:25.220 It's beautiful.

01:21:25.740 Gas station employees.

01:21:26.900 They all have to work.

01:21:27.760 No one cares about them.

01:21:28.700 No one cares about grocery store employees.

01:21:31.360 No one cares about them at all.

01:21:32.860 It's just, I guess, like, you're not allowed to go buy gifts for your family on Thanksgiving.

01:21:38.080 Go ahead to these other places.

01:21:39.700 It's fine.

01:21:40.360 It's, bars are open.

01:21:42.380 You can go get yourself hammered down at the bar.

01:21:46.100 That's totally fine.

01:21:47.300 But don't let people go buy a toy now.

01:21:50.120 So, we have a bunch of stuff coming up this hour, including more details on the smash

01:22:02.560 and grab situation that's going on across the country.

01:22:05.000 Going really well.

01:22:05.920 Really well in San Francisco.

01:22:07.580 The pushback against it?

01:22:08.600 Yeah.

01:22:08.860 And they've gotten right on top of it.

01:22:10.560 We'll tell you about that in a few minutes because it's pretty well fixed.

01:22:13.940 Oh, good.

01:22:14.440 Good.

01:22:14.680 Good.

01:22:14.800 Also, a controversy with actress Kristen Bell.

01:22:20.360 Really?

01:22:20.980 Yes.

01:22:21.800 She did something terrible.

01:22:23.620 The person from the, is it Enterprise commercials?

01:22:26.960 I don't know what commercial she's in.

01:22:28.740 She's an actress, though. 0.91

01:22:30.060 She's relatively famous.

01:22:31.200 She's married to a Dax Shepard.

01:22:35.740 Dax Shepard.

01:22:36.420 That's right.

01:22:37.040 Not Dax, but Dax.

01:22:38.340 Dax Shepard.

01:22:40.200 Just in case you were thinking it was Dax, which is a name.

01:22:44.200 It's Dax, which is also a name.

01:22:47.260 A name I'm seeing a lot more lately.

01:22:48.840 Both are names.

01:22:49.460 Yeah.

01:22:50.100 All right.

01:22:50.760 We'll get to that and lots more.

01:22:52.760 Come on.

01:22:55.060 On the radio.

01:22:57.360 Broadcast.

01:22:58.500 Show.

01:23:00.360 The program.

01:23:01.200 Coming up.

01:23:11.240 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:23:18.840 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:23:24.640 Today on this Thanksgiving Eve, featuring Pat Gray and Stu Bergear,

01:23:29.040 we've been reunited.

01:23:32.160 And it feels so good.

01:23:34.080 Because, see, we used to do a show together.

01:23:36.900 It was called Pat and Stu.

01:23:38.360 And we also did this show together.

01:23:39.900 And we also did this show together.

01:23:41.120 And we still do.

01:23:41.860 You're on most days.

01:23:43.540 Yes.

01:23:43.960 On the program.

01:23:44.880 Make an appearance.

01:23:45.620 As well as doing your own program.

01:23:46.760 Pat Gray Unleashed.

01:23:47.720 Right here on Blaze TV.

01:23:48.880 Yep.

01:23:49.100 And then you seem to do a show of your own as well at night.

01:23:54.480 Yes.

01:23:54.760 Thank you.

01:23:55.580 Stu Does America.

01:23:56.420 Both available, by the way, on podcast as well.

01:23:58.660 Right.

01:23:58.980 Make sure to subscribe and check them out.

01:24:00.400 Good news coming up about the smash and grab situation going on in San Francisco and all

01:24:05.320 over California.

01:24:07.560 Problem is almost solved now.

01:24:09.180 So we'll get to that coming up in about 60 seconds.

01:24:18.780 Black Friday is one of the biggest shopping days and one of the biggest opportunities for scammers.

01:24:24.240 Some of the most common scams include buying a gift online that never arrives,

01:24:28.840 sellers demanding payment with gift cards, fake shopping websites, and fake delivery notifications.

01:24:33.520 Honestly, all these cyber criminals are so industrious that if they honestly just get a regular job,

01:24:39.640 they'd probably be amazing contributors to society.

01:24:42.700 Unfortunately, that's not the way this goes.

01:24:44.520 It's important to understand how cyber crime and identity theft are affecting our lives.

01:24:48.580 Every day, we put our information at risk on the internet.

01:24:51.820 LifeLock helps detect a wide range of identity threats, and they will send you an alert if they see one.

01:24:57.460 Plus, you'll have access to a dedicated restoration specialist if you become a victim.

01:25:01.180 It's much better than in the old days where you were pretty much on your own.

01:25:04.900 Now you can have help.

01:25:05.840 No one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses,

01:25:10.220 but you can keep what's yours with LifeLock by Norton.

01:25:23.260 It's 1-800-LIFELOCK or lifelock.com.

01:25:28.560 Kind of a frustrating situation.

01:25:31.180 In San Francisco, a San Francisco retailer is calling crime in the city atrocious

01:25:37.180 after thieves recently targeted luxury retailers and other stores with mass looting over a period of days.

01:25:45.520 Gump's owner, John Chakas, joined Fox News and talked about the crime wave,

01:25:51.220 and he said,

01:25:51.660 my concern as a business person is you don't have a functioning environment anymore

01:25:57.660 when you have people outside of the city who are afraid to come to the city because of rampant crime and grit and filth.

01:26:06.660 Filth.

01:26:08.500 I, man, I don't know how he can say that when the problem is virtually solved.

01:26:13.840 Really?

01:26:14.440 Yeah, we told you the story about, I mean, he was talking about an incident, I think, at one of the malls,

01:26:19.080 one of the really nice malls in the area, in the Bay Area where like 30 or 40 people came in.

01:26:24.420 And then there was the Nordstrom situation where 80 to 100 people pulled up in 20 different cars

01:26:31.360 and all rushed into Nordstrom and took handfuls of things and then all left.

01:26:39.360 They've already caught three of them.

01:26:44.220 Three?

01:26:44.920 Three of the looters.

01:26:47.160 Of how many?

01:26:47.700 Three of what?

01:26:49.080 80 to 100.

01:26:50.820 So approximately three to five percent.

01:26:53.620 Yes.

01:26:54.420 Are behind bars right now.

01:26:56.580 And so problem solved.

01:26:57.900 Now they'll probably be immediately released once they brought in.

01:27:00.480 I'm sure they will.

01:27:01.360 Because in San Francisco, I mean, think about what's going on there.

01:27:06.580 You've got the, he talks about the filth because you've got the piles of human waste on the streets

01:27:13.460 and sidewalks that we've talked about before.

01:27:16.340 It's so bad that they're paying people $180,000 a year to go around and clean up the human poop

01:27:24.460 on the streets and sidewalks.

01:27:25.800 It's a pretty good gig if you can get it.

01:27:27.440 No, it's not.

01:27:28.020 Except for the ickiness of it.

01:27:29.740 It's not worth it.

01:27:31.160 It's not worth it.

01:27:32.300 You wouldn't do the $100,000?

01:27:33.100 No.

01:27:33.520 Yeah.

01:27:33.860 I wouldn't either.

01:27:34.760 No, thank you.

01:27:35.460 I wouldn't either.

01:27:36.240 You know, it's fascinating to watch this happen.

01:27:38.700 I mean, cities like this.

01:27:40.360 San Francisco's a great city, too.

01:27:42.560 It's a beautiful, it used to be.

01:27:44.200 It could be.

01:27:44.540 It used to be a beautiful city that was fun to go to, and there's a lot to do there, and

01:27:49.740 there's a lot to see, and it was just a nice environment.

01:27:54.460 Now, you've got the human feces, you've got the homeless over running the city, the mass

01:27:59.260 theft going on, where people are just afraid for their lives, and couple that with the fact

01:28:05.320 that San Francisco has laws that enable all of this stuff.

01:28:10.000 Yeah.

01:28:10.260 That they said that, you know, theft isn't going to be prosecuted if it's under $1,000.

01:28:17.320 Incredible.

01:28:18.220 So you've emboldened all of these people to pull off these kinds of thefts.

01:28:23.080 And, I mean, some of them are winding up with much more than $1,000 worth of stuff as they

01:28:29.200 rush out of these stores.

01:28:32.020 Especially, like, they're going to, like, Louis Vuitton, where one bag is worth much

01:28:35.660 more than $1,000.

01:28:37.980 Last time the Super Bowl was held in San Francisco, we were both out there for it to cover and stuff.

01:28:43.720 And it was sad.

01:28:44.300 And it was, what, 2016?

01:28:47.580 February 7th, 2016.

01:28:48.860 It was the game where the Broncos beat the Panthers, Peyton Manning's last game.

01:28:54.140 And walking around the city, first of all, it's a beautiful city in many places, and it's

01:29:02.740 really a cool place to go.

01:29:05.020 However, I smelled things that I will never forget.

01:29:08.440 Yeah.

01:29:08.860 And we saw things that I'll never forget.

01:29:11.280 Yes.

01:29:11.680 It's really bad.

01:29:12.880 And this was years ago now.

01:29:14.600 That's five years ago.

01:29:15.700 Yeah, yeah.

01:29:16.360 Almost six.

01:29:17.280 And we were staying, I don't know if you weren't staying at the same places as we were, but

01:29:22.820 we were staying in one of Nicolas Cage's old homes.

01:29:26.040 That's right.

01:29:26.540 And we were told it was like a $17 million place.

01:29:29.160 And it was nice.

01:29:30.080 It was nice.

01:29:30.540 I mean, it wouldn't be $17 million in Texas, but in San Francisco, apparently it was.

01:29:37.200 So anyway, he's in a beautiful neighborhood.

01:29:39.500 It's really nice with beautiful homes, million-dollar-plus homes.

01:29:43.020 And there was feces all over the sidewalks near there, just down the street from Nicolas Cage's

01:29:49.880 home.

01:29:51.080 Piles of nastiness.

01:29:52.360 And we should point out that it was Nicolas Cage who provided it.

01:29:56.440 But no.

01:29:58.560 Yeah, that's not okay.

01:30:00.760 That's a whole nother story, though.

01:30:03.560 I wasn't going to go there.

01:30:04.380 No, it's true.

01:30:06.400 It's all over the place.

01:30:07.500 And remember, this is an area.

01:30:08.860 The reason why I bring up the Super Bowl is because the NFL has a way of managing the

01:30:15.120 areas around their Super Bowls.

01:30:17.500 They put a lot of resources.

01:30:20.060 They put a lot of pressure.

01:30:21.100 They got a lot of power to make sure an area is cleaned up as good as it can possibly be

01:30:27.260 cleaned up around the facilities where all of these people flying in from all over the

01:30:31.420 world are walking around.

01:30:32.380 As it was put in the movie Concussion, I don't know if you saw this.

01:30:35.760 Did you see the movie Concussion?

01:30:37.060 I did not.

01:30:38.960 I've read a lot.

01:30:39.780 This is an entity that owns a day of the week.

01:30:43.220 That's how powerful they are.

01:30:44.520 That's not true.

01:30:45.300 They own a day of the week.

01:30:46.320 They don't.

01:30:47.520 Kind of own Sunday.

01:30:48.780 Sort of.

01:30:49.760 Yeah.

01:30:50.240 They kind of do.

01:30:51.020 In some ways.

01:30:51.820 In some ways.

01:30:52.700 However, I will.

01:30:53.680 We can get into that argument another time.

01:30:55.780 I'm highly skeptical of it.

01:30:57.280 But beyond all of this, it shows that it's impossible to keep all of this in line, right?

01:31:05.240 San Francisco smelled like San Francisco smelled even when the Super Bowl was there.

01:31:09.980 That was five years ago.

01:31:10.740 With all the resources applied to it.

01:31:11.980 It's worse now.

01:31:12.660 I'm sure.

01:31:13.160 Much worse.

01:31:13.880 San Francisco is a book that Michael Schellenberger wrote.

01:31:16.840 I got to read that.

01:31:17.520 You got to read it.

01:31:18.180 You got to have him on.

01:31:19.480 It's a book that he wrote about how liberal cities get ruined by progressives.

01:31:26.660 And it's funny.

01:31:27.680 This is the second time we've brought him up today.

01:31:29.160 We were talking about him.

01:31:29.940 He also wrote a book about the climate and all kind of the alarmism around that.

01:31:33.660 Again, this guy is not a hardcore liberal.

01:31:36.040 No, he's actually conservative.

01:31:38.580 I mean, he's on the left of the spectrum.

01:31:40.400 For sure.

01:31:40.820 He's a liberal.

01:31:41.800 Yep.

01:31:42.220 And he used to be a hardcore climate activist.

01:31:45.380 And I think still pretty much is.

01:31:46.820 He just wants to clear up some of the lies that are being told.

01:31:51.000 Yeah.

01:31:51.180 Don't panic.

01:31:52.100 Yeah.

01:31:52.360 Essentially.

01:31:53.020 And a lot of these things understand what the real threat is and try to deal with reality

01:31:57.220 rather than this bizarre cartoon they keep trying to paint for us.

01:32:00.960 He's not for the fear mongering that's going on.

01:32:03.520 In some ways, the opposite is true in San Francisco, the book he wrote, which is he's saying like,

01:32:08.440 wait a minute, this is a problem.

01:32:10.400 This isn't something we should blow off.

01:32:12.120 You know, he talks about how, you know, drug legalization, you know, you talk about this,

01:32:17.200 this idea of drug decriminalization and you hear about places like Portugal that have

01:32:22.140 done it with some success and we should just do that here.

01:32:25.040 That's what the argument always is.

01:32:26.200 So he, he decided to go and talk to the, the people who head up the drug program.

01:32:32.560 I love that about him.

01:32:33.620 That's what he does.

01:32:34.420 Yeah.

01:32:34.840 He, he did the same thing with the climate people.

01:32:37.480 He went to the people who supposedly said these outrageous things and it turned out they

01:32:41.760 didn't say these outrageous things.

01:32:43.360 Right.

01:32:43.620 And so he talked to the people who are running that whole thing in Portugal.

01:32:48.560 He talked to people all over the continent of Europe who are running these programs that

01:32:53.120 American activists say their ideas are based on.

01:32:57.640 We should just do what Portugal's doing. 1.00

01:32:59.160 Right.

01:33:00.180 And he talked to them and one of the things he noted, he identified as a real problem

01:33:05.260 in San Francisco and other big progressive cities is that we've now taken away all consequence.

01:33:11.140 So if you want to steal less than a thousand dollars, you go ahead, go ahead.

01:33:14.740 If you want to put a tent up in a public place and block people walking, go ahead, go ahead.

01:33:21.620 Just live there.

01:33:22.220 Your tent city.

01:33:22.860 Every once in a while, attack the people walking by.

01:33:25.300 Go ahead.

01:33:25.700 Go ahead.

01:33:26.220 We're not going to do anything about it.

01:33:27.160 And we'll release you immediately.

01:33:28.580 We, we've spent a ton of time this week talking about this guy in Wisconsin that ran all over

01:33:34.420 all of these people at the parade who I have right here, Pat.

01:33:40.000 This is it.

01:33:41.940 This 50 pages, 50 pages.

01:33:44.060 This is before the parade, 50 pages of charges on this guy since 1999, 50 pages, including tier

01:33:55.540 two sexual assault of a minor, which he admits to have doing.

01:34:01.380 He just didn't know she was 16, Pat.

01:34:03.680 Of course, this happens all the time to people.

01:34:05.620 He didn't know.

01:34:06.120 Well, she looked maybe 16 and a half, 17.

01:34:08.980 Or maybe 15.

01:34:09.760 Or maybe 15.

01:34:10.380 Just not 16.

01:34:11.260 He didn't really specify which way he was going on that.

01:34:14.420 So, you know, and they, they take, they took in this guy because he ran over with the same 0.69

01:34:23.020 vehicle you saw speeding by in the videos.

01:34:25.460 He ran over his baby mama and left a tire track on her leg. 0.99

01:34:31.640 Oh my gosh.

01:34:32.300 Literally in the report, it says a tire track was seen on her left pant leg.

01:34:38.100 He ran over a woman intentionally three weeks ago and then was released on a thousand dollars

01:34:43.700 bond.

01:34:44.880 And so this is happening all over the country.

01:34:47.140 And he identifies a million different areas where this is occurring.

01:34:50.940 But he talked to the guy in, I think it was Portugal.

01:34:53.080 And he said, hey, like what happens if someone is caught doing drugs?

01:34:56.740 Like what, what's, what happens here?

01:34:58.540 You guys decriminalize it.

01:34:59.620 Do they just, just release them immediately?

01:35:01.240 How does that work?

01:35:01.860 He said, no, they are forced to go into a treatment program or they go to jail.

01:35:08.420 So there they are giving a choice to treatment, to therapy, to real consequences, or they

01:35:17.740 go to prison just like the evil conservatives want it to be done here, supposedly.

01:35:23.360 Now, who pays for the, the state?

01:35:26.000 Does the state pay for the, for the treatment?

01:35:28.240 Yeah.

01:35:28.420 The state pays for it.

01:35:29.160 And, you know, he talks about this with mental health as well, where, you know, people get,

01:35:33.120 they have major mental health problems.

01:35:34.920 They get released over and over and over and over and over again.

01:35:37.540 And out into the street, you know, they give them, they might give them medication for a couple of days, stabilize them and then release them again.

01:35:44.220 Like, well, what good does this do?

01:35:46.200 And it makes, makes these cities impossible to deal with.

01:35:50.760 Right.

01:35:51.020 For regular people who just want to frequent a small business, for example.

01:35:55.600 It's really interesting because two New York Times journalists, have you read this story?

01:36:00.100 You read about that?

01:36:00.760 Did you see this?

01:36:01.420 I did not, Jay Leno.

01:36:02.420 Did you see this in the paper?

01:36:03.360 Did he?

01:36:04.260 Two New York Times journalists set out to, to prove that blue states do better than red states.

01:36:10.520 Oh yeah, this is amazing.

01:36:11.520 And they found the exact opposite, much to their surprise and chagrin.

01:36:16.900 They set out to explore what happens when Democrats control all of the levels of power in a state and local government across the country.

01:36:26.440 And they were shocked.

01:36:28.660 I mean, they could have just called us.

01:36:30.100 We would have told them.

01:36:30.840 Right.

01:36:31.320 Come on.

01:36:32.060 It's not, this is not brain surgery here.

01:36:34.220 But they discovered blue states, not red states, are the problem.

01:36:38.720 Had better income inequality numbers.

01:36:41.120 Yes.

01:36:41.740 Had all, you know, all sorts of different measures.

01:36:44.260 And it was interesting because the video, which is a must watch, it's a 15 minute video.

01:36:50.100 And I would say it's a must watch.

01:36:51.820 From these two?

01:36:52.060 Yeah, from these two guys for the New York Times.

01:36:54.180 And it really is incredible.

01:36:57.200 But when you really look at it, what they're arguing for, essentially, is for more like AOC-based policies.

01:37:04.780 They're saying they don't put their money where their mouth is, essentially.

01:37:08.320 They say they want equality. 1.00

01:37:10.520 They're hypocritical. 0.98

01:37:11.120 It's what they're criticizing them on. 0.99

01:37:12.460 They say they want equality, but they won't let poor people move into their neighborhoods. 1.00

01:37:17.460 It's that type of stuff.

01:37:18.500 It's fascinating.

01:37:19.000 And it's all true.

01:37:19.760 I mean, without question, it's true.

01:37:22.500 But what they, yeah, they say liberal hypocrisy, not Republican opposition, is fueling American

01:37:27.600 inequality.

01:37:29.300 That's amazing.

01:37:30.180 Yeah.

01:37:30.260 You seriously, if you have not seen this video yet, we'll tweet it out.

01:37:32.600 I want to see that.

01:37:33.240 At Studos America.

01:37:34.140 We'll make sure we, we'll send that out here if we can here soon.

01:37:37.520 But it really is an incredible piece.

01:37:40.260 And I can't believe the New York Times actually produced it.

01:37:44.880 I was blown away when I saw the article.

01:37:46.540 I could, what is going on at the New York Times?

01:37:50.360 It's a little fairness and common sense and I don't know, some actual journalism.

01:37:55.240 Yeah, it's the type of thing you'd hear from, from us on our side.

01:37:58.460 Like, hey, you keep saying you're pro, pro free market, but look at X, Y, and Z, what

01:38:03.260 you're doing.

01:38:04.300 We talk about that stuff all the time.

01:38:06.680 And look, it's, it's important for that to be pointed out.

01:38:09.520 Their solutions probably would not be the solutions we would choose.

01:38:12.480 But just noting their hypocrisy is such a massive step in the right direction.

01:38:18.720 It's nice to see.

01:38:19.840 It really is.

01:38:20.720 888-727-BECK.

01:38:25.240 Every day in this country, the left is doing its best to make sure the next generation 0.99

01:38:32.680 of kids, that's your kids, your grandkids, that they don't know where they came from.

01:38:38.120 They don't understand liberty and American exceptionalism.

01:38:40.960 That's what we are fighting every single day.

01:38:43.380 The left's bad ideas with the good ideas.

01:38:46.500 But who's teaching the good ideas?

01:38:48.120 This is precisely what the Tuttle Twins books do.

01:38:51.040 They teach your kids and your grandkids about American values in a fun and interesting way.

01:38:55.240 The books are incredibly important to share with your kids or your grandkids.

01:38:59.760 You can even read them yourself while you're at it.

01:39:01.760 I've learned a few things.

01:39:03.440 The Tuttle Twins books.

01:39:04.740 I love them.

01:39:05.720 My kids love them.

01:39:35.840 888-727-BECK.

01:39:39.140 This is interesting.

01:39:40.080 Just to put a fine point on the two New York Times journalists who went out to prove that

01:39:45.400 blue states do better than red and found the exact opposite.

01:39:49.660 They write, blue states are where the housing crisis is located.

01:39:54.220 Blue states are where the disparities in education funding are the most dramatic.

01:39:59.060 Blue states are the places where tens of thousands of homeless people are living on the streets.

01:40:04.080 Blue states are the places where economic inequality is increasing most quickly in this country.

01:40:10.460 This is not a problem of not doing well enough.

01:40:13.720 It is a situation where blue states are the problem.

01:40:18.000 I mean, that's fascinating.

01:40:19.820 That's fascinating.

01:40:20.660 It comes from the New York Times.

01:40:21.820 It didn't come from Fox News or the Wall Street Journal.

01:40:26.940 It's the New York Times.

01:40:28.740 One of the things they talk about is education.

01:40:30.580 And you hear this all the time.

01:40:31.520 You know, evil conservatives want school choice.

01:40:34.660 They don't want inner city kids to get any sort of education at all.

01:40:40.660 What they find, of course, is that in red states, it's much better. 0.90

01:40:43.860 And in blue states, it's really where the problem is.

01:40:46.020 And when they control everything, it gets really bad.

01:40:48.360 One of the areas they identify as a major problem is in Chicago.

01:40:52.580 And they talk about the way these schools are funded.

01:40:55.200 Now, if you were to take all of the money in Chicago from all the people, all the taxes from all these million dollar apartments and all of those things and pull it all together and then distribute it evenly based on population, you would have much higher quality schools in low income areas.

01:41:13.100 OK, however, what they do in Chicago instead is take the areas where the multimillion dollar apartments lie, take those taxes and keep them in the exact same community.

01:41:26.380 Instead of distributing it to low income communities, they make giant.

01:41:31.780 You've talked about this problem in states all across the country, Pat, before where, you know, these high schools now have like multiple arboretums.

01:41:40.060 Yeah.

01:41:40.180 It's like they just spend and spend and spend beautiful stadiums, beautiful pools, beautiful gyms, all this.

01:41:47.380 And then there's right down the street, a mile or two away in Chicago is a dilapidated school where it's probably unhealthy for the kids to even be inside.

01:41:55.800 God only knows what they're being taught in these places.

01:41:59.300 But, you know, even the structure of the school is bad.

01:42:02.440 Now, these for some reason, these multimillionaires that all vote blue in Chicago don't want their tax dollars going to lower income communities that are still inside Chicago.

01:42:15.120 I'm not talking about sending it halfway across the country, halfway across the state in their own cities.

01:42:19.780 They'd rather have a nicer pool in their kids school than they would have even mildly decent accommodations for lower income people.

01:42:30.460 Surprise! You mean they're in it for themselves?

01:42:33.020 Shocking.

01:42:33.500 Ha! 0.89

01:42:33.880 It's a shocking development. 1.00

01:42:34.920 They're selfish pigs in many cases? 1.00

01:42:37.560 Shocking. 1.00

01:42:38.160 Now.

01:42:38.300 It is stunning.

01:42:39.100 It's just, and they pointed out as if it's just, they just highlight the hypocrisy of it. 0.60

01:42:45.580 And then, of course, the hypocrisy is real.

01:42:46.400 Not that they're just bad policies to begin with.

01:42:48.160 Right.

01:42:48.480 And, you know, there's all sorts of problems with this long term, but this is an amazing thing to see from the New York Times.

01:42:56.120 And it's important to see from the New York Times.

01:42:58.280 You know, I've made this, I've mentioned this quote two times this week already, where the New York Times noted that there have been no documented cases of outdoor transmission of COVID outside of close conversation in the entire world since the beginning of the pandemic.

01:43:16.080 Now, I can say that.

01:43:17.420 It's incredible. That's an amazing stat.

01:43:18.920 It's an amazing stat.

01:43:19.620 It's something that I could say, but they quoted a scientist saying it in the New York Times, and it, you know, gathers a lot more credibility than just some, you know, dope on the radio mentioning it.

01:43:30.300 And while the Times can still do good work, and sometimes they do, actually.

01:43:35.000 I mean, they have a lot more on the resource side than, you know, anybody else.

01:43:41.200 So they can do all sorts of things that are good.

01:43:43.040 Usually, they apply it towards e-film.

01:43:45.440 Yes.

01:43:45.860 But they could do real good with it.

01:43:47.500 And sometimes they do, and this video is an example of it.

01:43:49.960 I got to see that.

01:43:50.740 I got to watch the whole thing, because the article is stunning.

01:43:53.700 I bet the video is even more amazing.

01:43:56.700 888-727-BECK.

01:43:58.860 More Pat and Stu for Glenn coming up.

01:44:00.360 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:44:07.900 There are a lot of great things about climbing up into your 50s.

01:44:10.960 You're allowed to wear socks and sandals, and nobody bats an eye.

01:44:13.520 That's always important.

01:44:14.820 It's easier to trick the waitstaff at Denny's to give you the senior discount.

01:44:17.980 And, of course, you finally get to join one of those benefit groups you've heard about.

01:44:22.680 Now, there are several you could join, but I recommend AMAC.

01:44:25.400 It's the Association of Mature American Citizens, and it's over 2 million members, strong and counting.

01:44:31.260 The benefits are amazing.

01:44:32.540 Things like insurance discounts, roadside assistance program, a member's only credit card, travel benefits, phone plans, dental plans, auto loans.

01:44:40.720 They have everything you could need.

01:44:42.520 But even more important is their advocacy.

01:44:44.420 AMAC members have played a significant role in stopping the passage of House Resolution 1,

01:44:48.940 the Pelosi federal takeover of all election legislation.

01:44:53.220 That would be a catastrophe if it went through.

01:44:54.700 And they're going to be asked to do the same to stop Senate passage of House Resolution 4,

01:44:59.060 another terrible bill trying to establish federal control of all elections. 0.63

01:45:02.800 So join AMAC for the advocacy, benefits, and information.

01:45:06.520 But most importantly, join because America needs you.

01:45:09.560 Join today at amac.us slash beck.

01:45:12.540 A-M-A-C dot U-S slash beck. 0.98

01:45:15.660 It's amac.us slash beck.

01:45:18.480 You know what?

01:45:19.020 Christmas is right around the corner.

01:45:20.460 Use the promo code GLEN20 to get 20% off Blaze merch at shop.blazemedia.com.

01:45:28.280 I'm Pat.

01:45:38.000 That's Stu.

01:45:38.680 And together, we are Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program today.

01:45:43.920 Here's how bad things are economically in this country.

01:45:47.500 Even though, you know, President Braindead is claiming,

01:45:50.920 it's really, the economy's way better than it was.

01:45:55.700 The other people who were here left it really bad, but we've made it really good.

01:46:03.260 The good thing about inflation is sometimes you get more money from your employer.

01:46:08.900 Really?

01:46:09.640 Is that a thing?

01:46:10.700 Yeah, because I remember seeing the stat of this.

01:46:12.180 It was something like pay is up 4.6% and the cost of living is up 26%.

01:46:18.640 So, yes.

01:46:19.880 So, that's really nicely compensating for it.

01:46:22.160 We're coming out ahead on that, I think.

01:46:23.660 Yeah, we're doing well.

01:46:24.180 I'm not good at math, but I think we're coming out ahead.

01:46:26.300 Yeah.

01:46:26.480 Is that right?

01:46:26.980 Oh, yeah.

01:46:27.440 I think so.

01:46:28.120 I think so.

01:46:28.580 If you reverse those numbers, it looks really good.

01:46:31.140 And then you got the empty store shelves, and then you got the high gas prices,

01:46:34.260 and then you have the fact that nobody can get employees enough to do their business

01:46:39.640 the way they want to do it, and for the amount of hours they want to do it.

01:46:44.460 I had lunch at Taco Bell.

01:46:46.320 This might surprise some people because I'm such a healthy eater.

01:46:48.540 I think this will blow people's minds.

01:46:52.860 Yesterday, you know, on a lark, just because I hadn't done it in so long.

01:46:59.200 Was that salad place you always go to closed?

01:47:01.300 No.

01:47:02.120 No, that's what makes it so unusual.

01:47:03.680 I made a choice to go to Taco Bell yesterday, and that's the first time I've done that

01:47:09.340 since last week.

01:47:12.160 Wow.

01:47:12.660 Yeah.

01:47:12.940 The entire week you went without Taco Bell until you went to Taco Bell.

01:47:15.500 How old were you last week?

01:47:16.780 Were you a zygote last week?

01:47:18.800 Yeah.

01:47:19.300 Yeah.

01:47:19.720 It's much more recent, of course, than when the guy in Wisconsin ran over his baby mama.

01:47:25.960 Right.

01:47:26.540 That was three weeks ago, so it's more recent than that.

01:47:29.680 More recent than that.

01:47:30.480 Yes.

01:47:30.600 Okay, yes.

01:47:31.280 But still, a way long time ago in Pat eating at Taco Bell years.

01:47:36.440 Yes.

01:47:37.280 That was about 17 years on that scale.

01:47:41.160 So, anyway, I pull up and I'm seeing the sign and they got like a million signs from mask

01:47:47.840 wearing to lost dogs.

01:47:50.980 I don't know, but the most prominent sign.

01:47:53.060 Little lost dogs?

01:47:55.000 Yeah.

01:47:55.320 It wasn't the Yikiro Taco Bell dog, was it? 1.00

01:47:57.760 No.

01:47:58.040 No.

01:47:58.420 Okay, good.

01:47:58.800 No, it was not.

01:47:59.900 So, in the middle of all this is this big bright sign that says, hiring now.

01:48:05.260 Work today.

01:48:06.780 Get paid today.

01:48:09.520 Daily income.

01:48:10.420 And I thought, what?

01:48:13.080 You're paying people daily?

01:48:17.240 So, like, at the end of the day, you get your, I don't know if you're working at, and they

01:48:20.780 said up to $15 an hour.

01:48:23.560 Well, it was $14.95, actually.

01:48:25.580 So, if you work eight hours that day, they're going to pay you, you know, $125 or whatever

01:48:33.020 that amounts to, in my head.

01:48:35.440 So, I guess they just do that out every single day.

01:48:38.740 That's how desperate they are for employees right now.

01:48:41.800 Just show up today.

01:48:42.620 Show up today.

01:48:43.500 We'll give you gold bullion.

01:48:47.140 Everybody who signs up today gets a Cadillac Escalade.

01:48:51.380 Oh, okay.

01:48:53.200 I mean, it's really amazing.

01:48:54.240 It is.

01:48:54.580 I'm surprised they aren't paying in Bitcoin yet.

01:48:56.400 Make this whole process even easier.

01:48:57.980 They probably are at some places.

01:48:59.560 It's really incredible.

01:49:00.680 And I will say this.

01:49:01.560 If this country and this government has one clearly defined constitutional role, it's

01:49:09.480 making sure we have guaranteed access to Taco Bell.

01:49:12.260 Thank you.

01:49:12.640 If they start closing down because they can't get employees.

01:49:15.100 It's not worth living.

01:49:15.920 Revolution.

01:49:16.560 Frankly, yes.

01:49:17.460 Revolution in this country.

01:49:19.020 It was Thomas Jefferson who said that the tree of liberty is watered on a,

01:49:24.560 daily basis when Taco Bell is in danger.

01:49:27.280 Yeah.

01:49:27.540 The tree of liberty is watered by nacho cheese.

01:49:29.540 Right.

01:49:29.800 This was the title of the essay.

01:49:32.820 And he was right.

01:49:33.660 And he was right.

01:49:34.420 He was right.

01:49:35.120 Again, they can pull him out of the city hall in New York City all you want, but he was

01:49:39.920 right on that one.

01:49:40.560 He was.

01:49:41.100 You know?

01:49:41.620 Yeah.

01:49:41.980 You know, we could say he was wrong on other things, but he was right on that. 1.00

01:49:45.840 It's amazing.

01:49:46.940 You know, I went to a sports bar.

01:49:49.980 This is now a few weeks ago.

01:49:54.380 And we kept trying to go to the same sports bar with my son.

01:49:56.380 It was always jam-packed and then we couldn't get in.

01:49:59.520 And, you know, I tried to put in the, I was just craving this one, this one thing there.

01:50:07.080 And they had, they have, they had closed the, the reservations.

01:50:14.060 I couldn't even get in past, I don't remember what the time was, like 830.

01:50:17.600 I'm like, well, it's a sports bar.

01:50:18.860 Obviously, the sporting event was still on till 11.

01:50:21.340 You know, you go in.

01:50:23.240 So eventually we got in because we went in super early, like, you know, a couple weeks

01:50:26.580 later.

01:50:27.260 And I asked the guy, like, what is going on?

01:50:29.560 We couldn't get any reservation.

01:50:30.660 He goes, well, the reason is we're closing at 9 p.m.

01:50:33.920 Oh, because they don't have the employees to keep going.

01:50:36.040 Yeah.

01:50:36.320 Because they can only do one shift a day.

01:50:38.040 Yeah.

01:50:38.380 So they have to combine lunch and dinner.

01:50:40.480 Crazy.

01:50:40.700 And so they just close at night. 0.79

01:50:42.180 Again, it's a sports bar.

01:50:43.500 There's an NFL game on.

01:50:44.840 Yeah.

01:50:45.220 And they just have to close.

01:50:46.460 And that's in Texas.

01:50:47.840 In Texas.

01:50:48.220 And that's a year and a half into this pandemic.

01:50:52.640 It's incredible.

01:50:54.060 Wow.

01:50:54.520 When will this ever end?

01:50:55.620 I don't know.

01:50:56.140 I mean, it's slower than you'd want.

01:50:57.480 Again, we've mentioned this this week and that we have seen improvements in some areas.

01:51:02.920 You know, certainly a lot of the restrictions have lifted.

01:51:05.080 If you're in a red state, it probably feels like normal.

01:51:07.440 I will say this to me at this point in when it comes to pandemic restrictions, it just feels

01:51:14.360 like normal life now.

01:51:15.560 And it has for a long time here.

01:51:17.280 It does.

01:51:17.880 With the exception of what we're talking about right now.

01:51:20.820 Just the hiring situation.

01:51:21.960 I don't know if that's pure pandemic stuff.

01:51:24.660 Right.

01:51:24.820 I think it's associated with the pandemic, but I'm saying restriction wise.

01:51:27.740 Like, yes, restriction wise in Texas.

01:51:30.040 I don't know if this is like sometimes I say this to my friends and they sound like it sounds

01:51:33.460 like a foreign planet.

01:51:35.240 But let me explain to you what it's like in Texas right now.

01:51:38.020 When you want to do something, you do it.

01:51:41.020 That's the whole story.

01:51:42.400 You just do whatever you want, whenever you want.

01:51:45.100 Yeah.

01:51:45.240 But after the mayor okays it, right?

01:51:47.300 You got to call him.

01:51:48.300 No.

01:51:48.640 No.

01:51:48.880 The only differences I would say, Pat, and tell me if you could think of anything else.

01:51:52.540 If you travel on a plane, you have to, of course, put on the mask and you have all that stuff.

01:51:56.640 But that's, you know, a little bit separate, obviously, than the state policy.

01:51:59.240 And there are some number of businesses in which people are still wearing masks.

01:52:05.860 It depends on where you go.

01:52:07.100 Like, it seems like the corporate owned companies still have maybe a mask mandate as a corporate

01:52:12.240 policy.

01:52:12.880 And so their employees are wearing them, not the people walking in, which is, of course,

01:52:17.520 completely absurd.

01:52:19.180 But they are doing that a little bit here and there.

01:52:21.880 I mean, less than 50% of places, though, I would say.

01:52:24.700 Yeah.

01:52:24.800 You know, you still have occasional straggler people who are wearing them because they choose 1.00

01:52:27.980 to wear them.

01:52:28.880 But, I mean, that's basically the only difference.

01:52:30.920 Indoor events, packed houses, all just normal and has been normal for a long time.

01:52:38.760 Yeah.

01:52:38.920 At times, we've done this show and I have felt weird about it because I can't relate to you

01:52:45.140 and your weird world you're living in in California.

01:52:48.440 I don't know.

01:52:49.400 I remember it from March of 2020.

01:52:52.200 Because it is completely different.

01:52:52.940 Yeah, totally different.

01:52:54.860 And so those restrictions that still apply in some of these areas are just strange, you

01:53:00.300 know, to me.

01:53:01.240 Honestly, it seems like a foreign country.

01:53:04.800 And what has developed around the country is a sort of two-tiered society where you live

01:53:13.540 in a blue state with all these restrictions and you have to live a life designated to you

01:53:19.160 by the state where you're in Texas, you're in Florida, you're in Arizona, largely, generally

01:53:25.580 speaking, you don't deal with any of that stuff.

01:53:28.260 And what has happened in this time period, which has now lasted close to two years, has been

01:53:34.980 people flocking from California, from New York, from Illinois, from Michigan, from a lot of

01:53:42.420 these northern states and blue states to places like Texas, to places like Arizona, to places

01:53:48.740 like Florida.

01:53:49.360 And that has, you know, people only have so much patience for this.

01:53:55.620 As Joe Biden once bravely said, our patience is running thin.

01:54:00.860 And that is what the American people have said.

01:54:03.920 There's a, I mean, we've been, this is like the, this, this hour brought to you by the New

01:54:08.600 York Times, which has decided to run two or three rational pieces in the last six years.

01:54:14.320 And they're all hitting us today.

01:54:16.340 This is today, an opinion piece in the New York Times, entitled, Everyone's Moving to

01:54:22.700 Texas, Here's Why.

01:54:25.420 How on earth this is running in the New York Times, I don't know.

01:54:29.420 But here it is.

01:54:30.860 And now they, of course, identify strange, I would argue strange criteria as to why you

01:54:38.440 would move, including, you know, obviously things like jobs are a big, big concern.

01:54:44.320 Um, also, lower climate risks.

01:54:47.780 In Texas, there's lower climate risk?

01:54:50.860 Yeah, that apparently does.

01:54:52.360 Okay.

01:54:53.360 Huh.

01:54:54.060 Well, this is my favorite one, though.

01:54:55.940 Racial diversity.

01:54:57.040 Now, I find it to be somewhat racist to pick a place to live based on racial diversity.

01:55:03.280 If you are making a decision based on skin color, you are doing life wrong.

01:55:08.380 Okay?

01:55:09.020 Yeah.

01:55:09.180 Don't make decisions based on skin color ever in your entire life.

01:55:15.120 If you are making decisions based on skin color, whether you're saying, I want to live 0.99

01:55:19.640 next to all white people, or I don't want to live next to all white people, you're doing 1.00

01:55:24.700 life wrong.

01:55:25.580 You should choose based on other metrics.

01:55:27.560 However, racial diversity, it's interesting.

01:55:30.540 Would you like me to give you the top cities in America for racial diversity according to

01:55:35.480 the New York Times?

01:55:36.500 Yes.

01:55:36.880 I will start at the bottom of the list.

01:55:37.900 One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

01:55:39.860 Wait, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

01:55:41.700 They got the top seven for some reason.

01:55:43.260 Number seven.

01:55:44.060 Mm-hmm.

01:55:45.280 Richardson, Texas.

01:55:47.000 Right nearby us.

01:55:48.120 Yes, that's in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

01:55:50.380 Yes.

01:55:51.180 Number six.

01:55:52.600 Okay.

01:55:52.960 Do you have a drum or something?

01:55:56.480 A little drum roll?

01:55:57.380 Would make it a little more dramatic, wouldn't it?

01:55:59.340 Number six.

01:56:02.040 Carrollton, Texas.

01:56:03.680 Okay.

01:56:04.780 Which is also the DFW metroplex.

01:56:07.200 Yeah, right down the street, basically.

01:56:08.620 Okay.

01:56:09.340 Number five is Elk Grove, California.

01:56:13.600 So California makes the list at number five.

01:56:16.820 Okay.

01:56:19.340 Let me give you a little fanfare.

01:56:20.760 At number five?

01:56:21.440 California, yeah, slipped in at number five.

01:56:23.720 I think that's true.

01:56:26.560 The number four most diverse city in America, according to the New York Times.

01:56:30.820 Yes.

01:56:32.720 Frisco, Texas.

01:56:34.260 Oh, my gosh.

01:56:35.260 Which is also right down the road from where we're sitting.

01:56:38.040 Wow.

01:56:38.800 Okay.

01:56:39.420 The number three most diverse city in America, according to the New York Times.

01:56:42.960 Uh-huh.

01:56:44.500 McKinney, Texas.

01:56:46.200 Which is right next to Frisco.

01:56:47.980 Right next to Frisco.

01:56:48.780 Right next to Frisco.

01:56:49.700 About 45 minutes away from where we're sitting.

01:56:52.280 However.

01:56:52.700 All right.

01:56:53.340 Oh, boy.

01:56:54.120 It's already.

01:56:54.620 We're going to change it up.

01:56:55.580 Okay.

01:56:55.860 We're going to change it up.

01:56:56.420 The number two most diverse city in America is...

01:56:59.480 Yes.

01:57:00.860 Did I wait a minute?

01:57:01.960 Hang on.

01:57:02.940 I got it.

01:57:05.300 Why did you just drum?

01:57:06.500 Why did it take you so long?

01:57:07.820 Number two most diverse city in America, according to the New York Times, is...

01:57:10.800 Uh-huh.

01:57:11.020 Irving, Texas, which is where we're sitting right now.

01:57:17.300 Yeah.

01:57:18.080 Irving, Texas.

01:57:19.480 I like it.

01:57:20.360 Fascinating part about this is, for some reason, The Blaze, a white supremacist network, chose

01:57:27.440 to locate themselves in the most diverse city in America, or second most diverse city in

01:57:32.460 America.

01:57:33.340 I think we have an actual even split, don't we, of the...

01:57:38.360 I think it's 25% black, 25% Hispanic, 25% Asian and other, and 25% white.

01:57:46.260 I believe that is the breakout of Irving, Texas.

01:57:49.720 It's like a perfectly diverse mix in Irving.

01:57:52.260 It's weird how we have chosen to go to a place, surrounded, by the way, also by Richardson,

01:57:56.980 Carrollton, Frisco, McKinney, Irving, and The Blaze decided to...

01:58:01.940 That's amazing.

01:58:02.720 Where is...

01:58:03.480 Is that the same...

01:58:04.980 Is that true with all the other major media networks?

01:58:07.700 You know, I don't think so.

01:58:08.520 No.

01:58:08.780 No.

01:58:09.220 Because I don't see...

01:58:09.940 I don't believe it is.

01:58:10.340 I don't see anywhere where the New York Times is, or Atlanta, where CNN is, that says

01:58:14.200 that's the most diverse.

01:58:15.200 Okay.

01:58:15.640 So, number one, most diverse place.

01:58:20.000 Number seven, Richardson, Texas.

01:58:21.160 Number six, Carrollton, Texas.

01:58:22.240 Number five, Elk Grove, California.

01:58:23.980 Number four, Frisco, Texas.

01:58:25.260 Number three, McKinney, Texas.

01:58:26.760 Number two, Irving, Texas.

01:58:28.240 And the number one most diverse city in America, according to the New York Times...

01:58:32.180 Yes!

01:58:32.960 Is...

01:58:33.700 Plato, Texas!

01:58:35.940 Right next to Frisco, which is right next to McKinney, which is right next to...

01:58:40.220 Which is sort of close to Irving...

01:58:41.180 And Carrollton and Richardson.

01:58:42.180 And Carrollton and Richardson.

01:58:44.000 And...

01:58:44.240 Wow!

01:58:44.820 Isn't that incredible?

01:58:47.080 That's...

01:58:47.600 Incredible.

01:58:48.300 We are told...

01:58:49.660 Wow.

01:58:50.080 ...once again, that Texas, red states, they hate their diversity, yet six of the top seven

01:58:57.300 most diverse cities in America, according to the New York Times, are within...

01:59:03.000 We could be there and have Taco Bell in one of these cities within 20 minutes.

01:59:06.840 Yes.

01:59:07.920 Almost all of them.

01:59:09.200 Amazing.

01:59:09.780 Amazing.

01:59:10.420 They also have affordability, which...

01:59:13.160 Do we do well in that, too?

01:59:14.420 Yes.

01:59:14.640 You're going to be shocked to hear.

01:59:15.560 The other place that seems to do well, actually, in these measures is Minnesota.

01:59:20.320 Number seven is a Minnesota.

01:59:21.920 Number six, Mesquite, Texas.

01:59:23.260 Number five, Grand Prairie, Texas.

01:59:24.700 Right down the road.

01:59:25.580 Number four, Arlington, Texas.

01:59:27.120 Right down the road.

01:59:27.880 Jeez.

01:59:28.020 Then Brooklyn Center, Minnesota.

01:59:29.860 Then number two, a most affordable city in America, Ulysses, Texas, which is right down

01:59:35.640 the road.

01:59:36.120 Yep.

01:59:36.240 And then Garland, Texas, which is number one.

01:59:38.340 Again, all those Texas sites are within the DFW Metroplex.

01:59:42.500 All close.

01:59:43.500 Amazing.

01:59:44.080 Pretty incredible.

01:59:44.940 Yeah.

01:59:45.080 So they got, you know, it's interesting that they note, of course, they note that there's

01:59:49.540 political issues.

01:59:50.440 They don't like the abortion law, of course.

01:59:53.100 But there are things like that that they complain about.

01:59:56.000 And they say, you know, transgender rights are bad and I don't know.

01:59:59.980 Yeah.

02:00:00.080 We don't allow boys to go into girls' bathrooms, as a rule. 1.00

02:00:04.140 Unless you're at Target.

02:00:05.420 They're fine with it there.

02:00:06.800 Totally fine there, obviously.

02:00:08.040 They love it.
