Speaker 2 Hey, and the best of today, we talk about the drones over in New Jersey. Pat actually thinks he knows whose they are.
The advancement in technology happening at breathtaking speed.

Speaker 2 We'll talk about the quantum computing from Google and what that means and how it ties to the Bible sales in America. It's a crazy story.
And my daughter, Cheyenne Grace, stops by. Stu

Speaker 2 did the interview and does his best to get under my skin while trying to retrieve her family secrets. All on the best of.

Speaker 2 You're listening to

Speaker 2 the best of the Blenbeck program.

Speaker 2 Welcome to the Blenbeck program and we welcome Mr. Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed.
I was listening to you today, Pat, and

Speaker 2 you didn't make me feel better about the drones.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 2 that's not my job to make you feel better. No, it's not.
No?

Speaker 2 No, which

Speaker 2 is what theory do you believe is real?

Speaker 2 No,

Speaker 2 I don't necessarily believe that these are drones that are searching for radiation.

Speaker 2 So that's good. Yeah.
I don't necessarily believe that. Have you heard that one still? I have not heard that one.
No. Okay, yeah.
That

Speaker 2 these are

Speaker 2 surveillance drones that detect radioactivity, radiation activity in the area. And there might be...
Supposedly...

Speaker 2 I mean, if you remember back to the story when the Soviet Union broke up, how many nukes were there that went missing, especially from Ukraine? They were suitcase nukes, I think.

Speaker 2 And I think there were like 80. And supposedly they've tracked down the vast majority of them, but there's speculation that

Speaker 2 we don't know exactly how many, but some are missing and that maybe the

Speaker 2 problem is that one of them is in the New York, New Jersey area. And these are searching for it.
And if that were the case,

Speaker 2 Of course, the government can't tell you that. No.
They're not going to say, hey, you know, one of the

Speaker 2 missing missing nukes is in the New York metropolitan area. And we're looking for it.
Let's say this is not going to happen. But let's just say New Year's Eve, suitcase nuke goes off in Times Square.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Or anywhere near there.

Speaker 2 What happens to the government and their credibility when everybody in the rest of the country goes, wait, wait, wait.

Speaker 2 You knew this. Right.
You were looking at it. You denied that that's what you were doing.
I mean, it's that's lose-lose in a big way. It is.
But what do you do? I mean, if you go to war.

Speaker 2 If you said at the beginning, yeah, we're looking for a suitcase nuke that maybe about the data.

Speaker 2 No, this is what I would say. These are Department of Homeland Security.

Speaker 2 It's a new system. We have

Speaker 2 threats, none of them necessarily credible, but this is a new system that we're unleashing.

Speaker 2 for credible threats. And we're just, you know, that's it.
Here's the problem with that, though. You'd have to have respect for the intelligence of the American people in order to do that.

Speaker 2 And they don't. They don't have any respect for us and our intelligence.
They don't think we can handle anything. And so we're not told anything.
Okay, so there's that.

Speaker 2 What was the other one that you just said?

Speaker 2 There is a

Speaker 2 project, like, I don't remember what it is, Project Blue, something or other.

Speaker 2 And it's

Speaker 2 a.

Speaker 2 Stu?

Speaker 2 If the people ever get out of control,

Speaker 2 I'm going to issue this secret directive here at the Pentagon. Okay.
And what we're going to do is we're going to fake an invasion, okay,

Speaker 2 kind of like War of the Worlds, because it'll bring everybody together.

Speaker 2 And we can get them behind the government, and we can all march towards, I guess, aliens that never show up.

Speaker 2 I mean,

Speaker 2 that doesn't seem real credible either. No, it doesn't.
Another story I heard is that

Speaker 2 it's a new

Speaker 2 system developed by Tarot Dynamics, the XP4. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah, yeah. We were just talking, yeah.
I just showed it. Yeah.
Okay. So that one seems credible.
That one is credible to me.

Speaker 2 Except, except they announced this. Showpat put on the screen again the

Speaker 2 release. This is from like the

Speaker 2 local channel 5,

Speaker 2 who said,

Speaker 2 you know,

Speaker 2 back in October or November, hey,

Speaker 2 we're testing these drones over New Jersey beginning in November. Well, but if that's it, why wouldn't you use this? Why wouldn't you just say that?

Speaker 2 Remember, we told you we're going to test these drones. Right.
Yeah. Hey, dummies.
I mean, this is even a great cover-up, even if it's not that. Why wouldn't you use this? Right.

Speaker 2 Because I think if they came out and said, by the way,

Speaker 2 this was already announced, this company's testing drones, They still probably wouldn't have believed it. So there would have still been 1,500 other theories.
Yeah, but you wouldn't.

Speaker 2 But it would have been pretty credible. Right.
What's happening is because of the government's inaction, and now you have two governors saying this, three, because you have Hokle too.

Speaker 2 He doesn't count.

Speaker 2 You're right. You're right.

Speaker 2 So we have two governors

Speaker 2 and some witch.

Speaker 2 Anyway,

Speaker 2 so you've got three governors saying the government is not telling us the truth

Speaker 2 and they

Speaker 2 they have ways to track this. What's going on? So you have,

Speaker 2 what are you doing? You're destroying even more credibility. And it's not like that's a long-term plan because in just a few days, you've got Donald Trump coming in.

Speaker 2 I mean, that makes him stronger to say, no, we're cleaning out the Department of Homeland Security. We're cleaning out the FBI.
We're cleaning out the intelligence.

Speaker 2 We're cleaning out the Pentagon because obviously something was going on and they had no answers.

Speaker 2 We could track drones. So it makes him stronger.
Why would you do that?

Speaker 2 It's all questions. It's one of those stories that just is, there's no, there's no answers and it's just question after question after question.
Nothing makes any sense right now on this.

Speaker 2 And I don't know. It could be something really nefarious, but you know, like normally, as I said, my mind kind of goes to the more boring possibility.
Almost every time

Speaker 2 I'm with you. Yes, thank you.
Oh, that's what I pay him for.

Speaker 2 But like,

Speaker 2 usually what I want to do with that is to find supporting information, if that's accurate. I don't have a real good, like, there's not like a lot.

Speaker 2 Yeah, there's not like a lot to support either theory. No.
It's just all very strange. So what do you think it is? I don't know.

Speaker 2 I honestly, like, my tendency is to think that, you know, this probably started, maybe it did start, as Glenn mentioned this possibility earlier, that maybe it started with some sort of military test.

Speaker 2 It became a big news story, and now every, every,

Speaker 2 you know, everybody who's got a drone is flying their drones over and trying to screw with people. Let me run this by you.
Yeah. Could these be delivery drones for Kexie cookies?

Speaker 2 Is that possible? Wow.

Speaker 2 Seems like a product placement here, doesn't it? No, no, he's a good idea. No, it's a theory that I have.

Speaker 2 Now, you think that's a good idea. That's because we're running a procrastinator special of 10% off right now.
Wow.

Speaker 2 Maybe you need 50 drones to cover the New Jersey area. Right.
Is that possible?

Speaker 2 Kaising.com. This is another instance, though.
Titancy.com. Yeah.
Yeah. I'm going to have to charge you for that.
Our time's very expensive at this time of year.

Speaker 2 This is another example, though, of where Pat, as someone who owns the company, should know if he's assigned drones to this area.

Speaker 2 Why isn't he just saying

Speaker 2 if that's what

Speaker 2 we turn over our shipping to other companies? And it may be that they're using these drones. Okay, try this.
Now, this is from that New Jersey state senator who said,

Speaker 2 I think this is the same guy.

Speaker 2 Is this a brand new senator that was just elected? This is John Bramnick.

Speaker 2 Is he new?

Speaker 2 I'm not sure. Okay.
Look him up, Stu. Bramnik.
So, anyways. He's a state senator.
He said, whatever these drones are doing, the government doesn't want us to know.

Speaker 2 The Department of Defense has to come clean with the American people.

Speaker 2 Oh, you have the actual audio. Here he is.

Speaker 3 Every single person, Democrat or Republican, has been calling for the same thing. That's why I have some concern that there is something very secret going on.

Speaker 3 It must be something going on that they can't tell us because they are so fearful of what the public's going to do when they hear what the drones are doing.

Speaker 3 There's no way the Department of Defense does not know what's going on.

Speaker 2 Right. I agree with that.
It does seem real. That part of it to me seems completely real.
They have to know. There's no way they don't know.
And there's no telling us.

Speaker 2 Now, they don't tell us stuff all the time. Yeah.
So

Speaker 2 are they spraying gender fluidity all over New Jersey? Yeah. So you wake up and all of a sudden you're like, I'm changing gender.

Speaker 2 You're very upset about that, right? It's possible. Very possible.
The gender fluid thing. Yeah.
Even if they're leaking that. Because the trans population has gone from like 0.7% to like 93%.

Speaker 2 That was last year's number. It's 140 140 now.
Okay. 140.
Is it possible they're targeting the meadowlands with certain

Speaker 2 substance that make the football team suck?

Speaker 2 Is it possible the Jets and Giants have been hit with some sort of dust from this?

Speaker 2 It's possible. No, it could have just hit the owner's house.

Speaker 2 Okay. Could have just hit the owner's house.
There you go. That's possible as well.
All right. Thank you very much, Pat.
And you say no. You say delivery drones for Kexi cookies? Yes.
Which one?

Speaker 2 I'm charging you. Kexi.com.
Kexi.com. How do you spell it? K-E-K-S-I dot com.

Speaker 2 But it's probably too late for me. I've been pretty much aware of that.

Speaker 2 10% off for you.

Speaker 2 Unless you're Amish, you pretty much have to have phone service and, you know, you can't live without it.

Speaker 2 And that can leave you kind of feeling gross, especially when you find out Verizon and the other phone companies, they give to stuff that the Amish would never be for. Okay.

Speaker 2 They would be like,

Speaker 2 I think I don't want to do business with people who are aborting babies.

Speaker 2 Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative mobile phone company.

Speaker 2 This is the cell service. If Amish had phones, they, I think, they, well, I can say whatever I want because they don't listen to radios.

Speaker 2 Or do they? Anyway,

Speaker 2 this is a Christian conservative mobile company that actually dedicates a lot of their time, their charitable time, to helping us fix our communities and our states,

Speaker 2 standing up for our rights and the rights of citizens and our Constitution. So you can keep your number and, for a limited time, get a free smartphone.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. And don't forget, rate us on iTunes.

Speaker 2 Hello, America.

Speaker 2 Let me just refresh your memory where we were on Monday. Where we were on Monday with Willow, which is a new computer chip from Google that

Speaker 2 they just tested with the new quantum computer. Two years ago, we talked about

Speaker 2 quantum computing because

Speaker 2 it could process 54 what are called qubits.

Speaker 2 That was astonishing at the time. And I read article after article.
Once you get over 100, it's going to be like, you won't believe what this can do. And we're at the very beginning.

Speaker 2 Two years ago, we were at 54. We're at 105 qubits.
A qubit is a way to open up,

Speaker 2 I don't even know how to explain it, the universe

Speaker 2 and

Speaker 2 test a theory

Speaker 2 and search for all answers at the same time. So right now, we have to think linearly.
We have to think, okay. 2 plus 2 is 1? No.
2 plus 2 is 2? No.

Speaker 2 2 plus 2 is 3? No. 2 plus 2 is 4? Yes.
Okay.

Speaker 2 So it's ones and zeros. It's either a yes or a no.
It doesn't have to be, but we don't have to go into that. Yes or no? And it tests all of them vertically instead of linearly.
Got it?

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 2 it can come up with answers like nobody's business.

Speaker 2 And it works with quantum physics, which quantum physics, everything breaks down with quantum physics.

Speaker 2 Einstein said God doesn't play dice. Well,

Speaker 2 if quantum physics is true, perhaps he does a little bit.

Speaker 2 Because

Speaker 2 what they're finding now, especially since Monday,

Speaker 2 is one thing. First, They can solve the most complex problem that we have ever tried to solve.
I don't even know what it is. I'd like to ask that question,

Speaker 2 but it took this new quantum computer

Speaker 2 five minutes to solve a problem

Speaker 2 that would have taken our best supercomputer 10 septillion years to solve it.

Speaker 2 Go through the it's million billion million billion

Speaker 2 trillion quadrillion quintillion septillion Okay, that's a lot in fact they describe it as vastly more than the age of the entire universe. Quite

Speaker 2 an understatement there.

Speaker 2 How old is the universe, they think? The accepted one is 13.8 billion years. Okay, 13.8 billion years.
This is 10 septillion years would have taken to solve this problem with our best supercomputer.

Speaker 2 I would like to ask the question,

Speaker 2 what was the question?

Speaker 2 And what is the answer? And how do you know it's right?

Speaker 2 All right.

Speaker 2 So now that happened on Monday. They announced that on Monday.
Now, the guy who's the head of Willow, the guy who's in charge, he's the founder and the leader of the Google Quantum AI team.

Speaker 2 He's a physicist. He said the result, the high-speed result, lends, I'm quoting, credence to the notion that quantum computation occurs in many parallel universes.

Speaker 2 So,

Speaker 2 I mean, you have to almost go to Marvel to understand.

Speaker 2 It's

Speaker 2 as if when they put a question in,

Speaker 2 all the Spider-Man movies are stacked up on top of each other. You know what I mean? Not the Spider-Man, you know, Spider-Man one, two, and three with the same actor.

Speaker 2 He's in one universe, but all the other ones with different actors, they're all happening at the same time. Okay.
That's what it means for a parallel universe.

Speaker 2 And he says it shows that that's where the quantum computing is happening. It's going, it's actually opening up and going into other universes.
It's fascinating.

Speaker 2 Do you want to hear why they think that, Stu? Sure. It's a nerd.
It's very nerdy. Okay.
But it's really cool. All right.
Okay. So you know what a neutron and an electron does, right?

Speaker 2 What does an electron electron do? When you're talking the atomic scale, electron. It circles

Speaker 2 and it circles the neutron. And the neutron,

Speaker 2 the reason why the electron circles it is it keeps, it's like, it acts as a force to keep the neutron in place. Without the electron,

Speaker 2 it just like explodes and goes away. Okay.
Okay.

Speaker 2 So you have to have the electron going around it to keep the neutron in place.

Speaker 2 The reason why they first came up with quantum physics is the electron, when you observe it,

Speaker 2 it disappears. No,

Speaker 2 when you observe it, it's there. When you don't observe it, it's there and then not there.
There and not there. There and not there.
There and not there. And so it keeps going.
It just disappears.

Speaker 2 How do you know that? The energy. The energy.
It's one or the other if you observe or not.

Speaker 2 I can't remember which has been been years but it the energy goes full nothing full nothing full nothing in those nothing areas areas the the neutron should dissipate okay

Speaker 2 What they thought, this is the theory, is that it's actually slipping into several different universes as it's going around to hold that neutron in place in all these different universes. What? Okay.

Speaker 2 Crazy. This is really what they think.
Yeah, that's really what they think.

Speaker 2 So that was the theory.

Speaker 2 So he's now saying, yep,

Speaker 2 this proves that that theory is where we're doing the computations in all these different universes.

Speaker 2 Now,

Speaker 2 the problem is, over the weekend, there was a massive nerd fight.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 another guy

Speaker 2 who is an astrophysicist, Ethan Siegel, he says that's ridiculous. And the Google guy should know.

Speaker 2 And he says that it has nothing to do with it, blah, blah, blah. So there's a nerd fight on the, he said,

Speaker 2 parallel universe and multiverse are very different.

Speaker 2 Now,

Speaker 2 I don't even think Marvel can explain the difference. I have no idea.
But that's the level of the nerd fight we're in. However, here's

Speaker 2 what's really cool is

Speaker 2 at 54 qubits, okay, so about half of what we have now, and don't ask me how this happened, I have no idea, they opened some, you know, a molecule and they could measure it here,

Speaker 2 and when it was

Speaker 2 turned on or whatever, I don't, I have no idea. I'm sorry for everybody who has really passed an eighth grade education.
I apologize here to your head's going to hurt.

Speaker 2 But they opened it somehow or another, and they were observing it in like Silicon Valley or wherever this is. And then they opened the same one.
It appeared in London.

Speaker 2 And they verified that the changes they made in Silicon Valley were happening with the, it's the same molecule and it was happening at the same time someplace else. What? That nuts? Yes.

Speaker 2 They thought that that time at 54 qubits, they thought that's going to lead us to the discovery of how to travel without airplanes and everything else. Like instantaneous travel.
Instantaneous travel.

Speaker 2 That would be incredible. Yes.
Okay.

Speaker 2 So all of these things are coming up. Now, now listen to this.
What they say is

Speaker 2 this is such big news.

Speaker 2 Because we're going to be able to solve some of the biggest problems. Okay, I want to know what the first question was.
Are you interested in what the first question was?

Speaker 2 Sure. I took that.
Okay, I don't know what it is. I'm sure it's just mathematical, but I have no idea what it was.
I'd like to know. And do you think these are our biggest problems? When

Speaker 2 you have the most powerful,

Speaker 2 they're saying it will tell us how to make batteries better.

Speaker 2 That's what we're going for? We're going for how batteries can be made better? They said also

Speaker 2 it could further humanity by curing some diseases. Okay.
Some diseases?

Speaker 2 It could be big. Could be maybe big.
Yeah, I think that might be an understatement.

Speaker 2 I mean, you're opening all this up and you're like, yep, we're going to be able to drive for 400 miles, maybe as much as 700 miles. Come on.

Speaker 2 Come on. There's got to to be something bigger than that.
Okay. So anyway, as all of this is happening and makes no sense to anybody, I think all of the scientists are even bluffing.

Speaker 2 They don't know what they're talking about.

Speaker 2 It makes no sense. Let me give you this story.

Speaker 2 New sales

Speaker 2 data from a book scan shows that Bible sales have increased 22%

Speaker 2 through October of this year compared to the same period last year.

Speaker 2 I don't know if you know this. Bible sales have been going down

Speaker 2 for maybe about a hundred years.

Speaker 2 Went up 22% this year.

Speaker 2 In the first 10 months of the year,

Speaker 2 Americans purchased 13.7 million Bibles, which Bibles now are on track to

Speaker 2 suppress to surpass last year's 14.2 million.

Speaker 2 Here's why it matters. Over the same period of time, print book sales increased less than 1%.

Speaker 2 So people are, you can get it online,

Speaker 2 people are actually going out and buying paper Bibles for their house and their family at unheard of rates when everywhere else the Bible is going down. Why is that happening?

Speaker 2 Try to relate it to the first story I just gave you.

Speaker 2 Nothing makes sense.

Speaker 2 Nothing makes sense in our world. You're like,

Speaker 2 what? People are looking for foundational truths. They're looking for foundational truths.
The world is changing so rapidly and nothing makes sense. This is really good news.

Speaker 2 Seeing that, that's the first sign of an awakening.

Speaker 2 Where people get so disillusioned with things, they realize their lives, the country, war,

Speaker 2 science, everything is out of control. There are no experts to listen to

Speaker 2 that you're like, okay,

Speaker 2 maybe I should start listening to myself and is there something bigger than me that makes sense?

Speaker 2 This is an extraordinarily good sign.

Speaker 2 As the world makes less and less sense, the only way to solve this is a return to universal principles.

Speaker 2 And it will still,

Speaker 2 do you know that the Big Bang theory was developed by scientists,

Speaker 2 developed by scientists,

Speaker 2 and they used it at first,

Speaker 2 the religious

Speaker 2 people

Speaker 2 used it at first

Speaker 2 to say the Big Bang theory

Speaker 2 proves

Speaker 2 God exists.

Speaker 2 And so science at that time accepted it for a little while. And then they were like, no, no, no, no, it doesn't prove.
It just started. And it started as, well, that's the way God created.
So God

Speaker 2 lit a match, happened the Big Bang, that explains your expanding universe and everything else.

Speaker 2 And now scientists use that because they've cut the original part of the theory out that God lit the match.

Speaker 2 And it leaves you with the question I've asked a million times. Right, Big Bang.

Speaker 2 But what lit the match? What was just before it? Where did all of that come from? Who started the fire?

Speaker 2 That was part of the original Big Bang theory, God.

Speaker 2 And they conveniently axed that part to now disprove God.

Speaker 2 We don't know what the answers are. And with quantum computing, the world's going to look, and science is going to look very different, very fast.

Speaker 2 But there are certain truths that used to be self-evident that are eternal. And we're looking for them in record numbers.

Speaker 2 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Speaker 2 Welcome to the program.

Speaker 2 Cheyenne Grace.

Speaker 2 Hey.

Speaker 2 That's your daughter, Glenn Beck. I know.
Did you know that? Yeah, I'm aware of it.

Speaker 2 Okay. Big star.
Yeah. Big star on

Speaker 2 every chart.

Speaker 2 Number of what?

Speaker 2 I just want you to know,

Speaker 2 as

Speaker 2 you're conducting this interview, I'm just keeping a list, and I will check it twice. Yeah.

Speaker 2 That's fine. All right, go ahead.
I was here to get the true story

Speaker 2 about how everything developed,

Speaker 2 how all of this went. Congratulations, by the way.

Speaker 4 Thank you. Thank you.

Speaker 2 So you went to number one on the holiday charts on iTunes. Oh, exactly.

Speaker 4 Oh, scary? I was, I mean, I was talking to one of my friends, and it was like, I mean, I'm competing with big names, and like one of Kendrick Lamar is one of them.

Speaker 4 And my friends were like, yo, that's so cool. And I'm just sitting here, like, wide mouth open, like, don't even know what's happening, studying for my finals, getting texts from my friends.

Speaker 4 And I'm like, what is going on?

Speaker 2 Were you worried about a Kendrick Lamar diss track? Coming after you? Yeah.

Speaker 2 Very worried. Very worried.

Speaker 2 I was texting Michael Bouble, and my wife said,

Speaker 2 Don't text Michael Bouble that. And I said, Why? She said,

Speaker 2 Because she's beating Michael.

Speaker 2 Michael Bouble is one step behind her. I'm like, oh, okay, yeah, I guess.
So I never did. I have to tell you.
Oh,

Speaker 2 he would love that story.

Speaker 4 So this is kind of like weird and like surreal. Like, I just, I mean, I'm 18.
I don't know what's going on. And people are like, Cheyenne, like, you didn't expect this.

Speaker 4 I'm like, no, I didn't expect this. I expected to release it and do my finals.
Just kind of, you know, low-key. I don't even know what's happening.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 2 this is kind of what our family has decided to do.

Speaker 2 Tanya and I, and sincerely, we're leaving our money to charity. And our kids, we're going to be able to do that.
We'll start it at charity, by the way. Yeah.

Speaker 2 For each kid, we will help them. pursue what they want to pursue.

Speaker 2 And if they come up with a good idea and it will help them, you know, start their own business or start their career and will also help them with schooling and everything else.

Speaker 2 But this is this was her thing, and she has to pay dad back.

Speaker 4 This was an out of it. I already did, actually.
So,

Speaker 2 yeah, yeah, she's been doing the calculation every night.

Speaker 4 Okay, I have, I have, I really have.

Speaker 2 It was very expensive, and she was like, Okay, okay, dad, dad, dad. Now, so you're telling me he's already told you that he's screwing you out of all this money.
He's already, he's already been

Speaker 4 upfront about that. He's like, okay, so this is the will, and after that, you get nothing.

Speaker 2 So, I'm ready. Yeah, it's interesting.
They all have to make their own way.

Speaker 4 But that's what I wanted. So, and I've told him countless times, I want to make my own success.
That's why she,

Speaker 2 why don't you use Cheyenne Beck?

Speaker 4 Because I don't want ties connected.

Speaker 2 I mean, isn't it rhythmic?

Speaker 2 I don't want ties.

Speaker 2 Right. I mean, it's got to be more like, not that you're worried that you'll get help from Glenn, but that he'd destroy your life.

Speaker 2 Yeah, of course.

Speaker 4 That's exactly what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 She wants to be.

Speaker 2 Do you still want to go to Broadway?

Speaker 4 Yeah. Yeah, that's the dream.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 2 I'm trying to get out of it.

Speaker 4 But yeah, every day.

Speaker 4 That's nothing new. It's always, why are you doing this?

Speaker 2 I'm just sending her stories of murders in New York.

Speaker 4 Trying to convince me why I shouldn't do it.

Speaker 2 Yeah, but that's what she really wants to do. And she doesn't want to necessarily be, I mean, you never thought of yourself as a singer other than like a Broadway.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I've never, I mean, I've gotten questions recently. I'm like, are you going to continue this? Is this going to be your career? And I'm like, no, I can't.

Speaker 4 I'm like, I have to, I, that's not where my passion stands. Like, theater is like where it is, you know, where it's at for me.

Speaker 2 And you've done a lot of theater.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I mean, I grew up as a ballet dancer for a while. So I was on the stage like since I was little.

Speaker 2 By the way, parents of girls, that is honestly the best thing that you can do for your little girl. Really? Is put them through ballet.
It gives them poise and grace.

Speaker 2 And, well, I mean, it did with Cheyenne.

Speaker 4 It depends on the day today.

Speaker 2 No, but it does. And

Speaker 2 she went to, I mean, it was kind of scary because you went with Russians.

Speaker 4 I mean, see, here's the thing.

Speaker 2 We sent her to Moscow. No, it was a Russian student.

Speaker 4 No, they came to Colleyville, Texas.

Speaker 2 Oh, geez.

Speaker 2 They were serious. And the guy of the husband of the ballet teacher.
Oh, geez, yeah. He was terrified, I think, of his wife.
Terrified.

Speaker 4 Well, everyone is. Everyone is.

Speaker 2 He's Russian, too. And he would come out.
We'd have to go to these ballet performances every year. And I mean, we enjoyed going to those ballet performance performances every Christmas.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I loved, you know, the nutcracker thing we saw yesterday on the movie screen. And then Rafe was just like, oh, no.

Speaker 2 It's like a trauma response for them now.

Speaker 2 It is. But anyway, we used to, I'm not going to go there.
Anyway,

Speaker 2 so he would come out before the performance as they were changing scenery and stuff. And Lee would come out and say,

Speaker 2 well, we are very excited for our next performers. It is

Speaker 2 Cheyenne Grace, and she is very, oh, my wife just said she's ready. Here it is.
I mean,

Speaker 2 he hated every second of it.

Speaker 4 Here's the thing. Like, he's scared of the daughter and the mother because they're both equally so scary.

Speaker 2 But,

Speaker 4 no, I think ballet is really like disciplinary. I do think it's hard on your mental health, which

Speaker 4 I stand very strongly by because it was hard on my mental health. But it gives you,

Speaker 4 I mean, it's just the whole thing is like, you have to be tiny if you're not tiny.

Speaker 4 And so it's just, it's hard for girls, but you know, like it's so good for discipline.

Speaker 2 We are tiny. Hold on.

Speaker 4 Well, when I was like eighth grade and had baby fat, you know? Wait, hold on.

Speaker 2 I want to make sure I repeat what just occurred.

Speaker 2 Glenn made a recommendation to the national audience to put their daughters into ballet and had no idea that it was damaging to her mental health. Right.

Speaker 4 That's why I was like, dad, what are you doing?

Speaker 2 This is what happens in my house all the time. I'll say something, she'll run out in tears, and my wife will look at me and go, What the hell did you just do? And I'm like, I don't know.

Speaker 2 I just said, you know,

Speaker 2 with pants on, dude. True story.

Speaker 2 Little short.

Speaker 4 Okay, enough with the no pants thing.

Speaker 2 Yes,

Speaker 2 she's wearing pants.

Speaker 2 And she will be wearing pants in Nashville as well

Speaker 2 this week. What a huge honor this is.

Speaker 4 I'm scared, Stu. I would be terrified.
I'm terrified. Actually, actually funny story so i've only performed in front of like 400 people at most like live performance right in the theater setting too

Speaker 4 never like this never like singing like just regular singing like you know like i've always been performing well i was talking to my last

Speaker 4 person the other day and i was like she was asking me how many seats were in there and i was like

Speaker 4 probably like a thousand i've never looked it up and so i was like it probably like close to in the thousands somewhere big yeah well they looked it up because she was like give me an exact number and i was like okay so i looked it up 4 000 seats i was like

Speaker 4 i almost had like a heart attack i almost dropped dead i think it's sold out

Speaker 2 maybe maybe daddy if not yeah there's actually packing extra people not to make you nervous or anything they've decided to blow out the back wall

Speaker 2 so uh it's incredible i saw your first performance uh in you know little grapevine texas

Speaker 2 first performance what what what were there 25 people there 30 people a little more maybe than that I was street performing.

Speaker 4 And I also, I've never street performed before, like before that, so that was terrifying, too. I didn't know what I was doing.

Speaker 2 It was great, though. It was great.
You did a great job. This is a different experience, though.
Yeah. You know, my wife, who, by the way, you've mentioned her last person, is your tan person.

Speaker 2 Look at this tan right now. I know.

Speaker 2 I think your wife.

Speaker 2 What's the name of her?

Speaker 2 Sun Believer. Sun Believer.
Thank you. DFW.
I've decided that she should have the Donald Trump. It should be on the menu.
I like that. You suggest bright artists

Speaker 2 Or just, I want the Donald Trump. Donald Trump.

Speaker 4 He said that to me yesterday when we walked out of the movie theater, and I was in such a bad mood. And I was like, Dad, go away.

Speaker 2 I was like, stop talking.

Speaker 2 I say that to him all the time. Yeah, okay.
We went and saw White Christmas yesterday in the movie theater. It was playing for Fathom.
It was the last day.

Speaker 2 And the whole family, we went, and it was so cool. But when you see it on the big screen, you see stuff you've never seen before.
Like, it's like, wait,

Speaker 2 what's happening?

Speaker 2 Like, with George Lucas, like, there's like

Speaker 2 extra like CGI animals walking through it and stuff like that.

Speaker 2 Because you always see it on a small screen. It was like the continuity was horrible.

Speaker 2 Like, you know, when they're in the dressing room and they're buttoning their shirts, like no buttons are done and it's tucked in. And then the very next cut to him, all the buttons are done.

Speaker 2 Then the next cut, no buttons are done. It's so weird.

Speaker 4 Why don't you scream to me in the movie theater? This one's the worst in movie theater. He's always like screaming.
Very loud. What did you? Yes.

Speaker 2 This is a little known thing about Glenn. Very loud at home.
You hear him singing four seats down.

Speaker 4 He was singing the whole time.

Speaker 2 At least that's what you and I did on the trip.

Speaker 4 That's what we do at home.

Speaker 2 Yeah, right.

Speaker 2 We've done it in the car, too. Yeah.
Yes. In private areas.
That's exactly right.

Speaker 2 I will say when Glenn goes, you go to a movie with Glenn and like

Speaker 2 if we were like watching a movie at home and we were making fun of it. Like you're watching a Hallmark movie.
Right. And

Speaker 2 a scene comes on and you're making fun of it. You're making comments to your friend.
He does that in the theater. Like he'll just blurt out sarcastic things about the movie you're watching.

Speaker 2 In a silent room.

Speaker 2 It's so true.

Speaker 4 It's not. You know how I literally, me and mom, shushed you yesterday?

Speaker 2 There was no one else in the theater. There was like seven other people.

Speaker 2 Still, courtesy. Yeah.
Courtesy.

Speaker 4 Whatever, it's fine.

Speaker 2 So you had this big performance. Yes.

Speaker 2 And you're saying it's sold out, so people can't even get it. I don't know if it is.

Speaker 2 I think it is, but I don't know. I don't know.
So you don't know anything about it. I don't know anything.
No, I don't. I don't know if anything.
Okay.

Speaker 2 This is really

Speaker 2 exciting. And you have no idea whether you even want to

Speaker 2 continue this line of

Speaker 4 current. Like, honestly, one of the things that I had in mind, and I talked to dad about this, was that I really want this to help jumpstart my theater career.

Speaker 2 Ah.

Speaker 2 I'm using this as an angle. There's a lot of people.
Yeah, there's always a place to work as a part

Speaker 2 not in New York. So we're using this as, hey, did you? Did you say she had a best on that one? I don't know that it'll work at all, but put it on your resume.
There you go. I like that.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 Now, can you tell me more about things that Glenn has done that have damaged you in any specifics? I mean, the list could go on and on and on. Okay, thank you very much for stopping by.

Speaker 2 Cheyenne Grace, definitely not the last name Beck.

Speaker 2 I love you, sweetheart. I love you too.
And great. Dan, by the way.
This is fantastic.

Speaker 4 Thank you. Yeah, thank you.
This great lady does it.

Speaker 4 That's great.

Speaker 2 This has been, you know, Cheyenne,

Speaker 2 Cheyenne and I were never, she was always a mama's girl.

Speaker 4 Always. Hated him.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Would cry and the same way I really like Tanya, and I don't like him.
I am the same way. Wait a minute.
Hold on.

Speaker 4 You cry when he shows up in a room? Yes.

Speaker 2 Constantly.

Speaker 2 And I'm worried about being so perfect with my physique all the time.

Speaker 2 Exactly. Because of dad's pressure to put me into ballet.

Speaker 2 I was going to say something nice about the relationship with my daughter, but I don't think so anymore. Get out of here.
Okay. I love you.
How you do. Okay.
