Well, I talked talked about Jace Medical.
Every day we move closer to a potential war with countries like Russia and China, even North Korea.
That's not what I'm afraid of in the
short term.
In October, we have the port unions, the unions of all of our port workers,
possibly going on strike.
That would mean all of that stuff on ships will sit there and we will have shortages just like we did with COVID.
There are so many things that you need to make sure are in place for you and your family in short order.
There is something you can do to ensure that your loved ones have the medication on hand when it is needed, and it is called the Jace Case, a personalized emergency kit that contains essential antibiotics and medications that treat the most common deadly bacterial infections.

Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment
and enlightenment.
This is the Glen Beck Program.
Hello, Americans.
It's Friday.
Welcome to the Glen Beck program.
We get right to it.
The things that you need to know and your friends need to know
about
what the consequences are if we choose improperly or without
any self-reflection or
really self-education.

So, you know.
People are now saying that Donald Trump is a threat to democracy.
How many times times have we heard that?
That he is a threat to our republic.
That they love the Constitution and he wants to go away from the Constitution.
Let me tell you the threats that you are facing right now.
And if Kamala Harris wins, they will be enacted, all of them and more.
There was legislation introduced by Senator Ron Wyden.
His legislation, he wants to remake the Supreme Court.
Now,
this is what we used to call packing the court.
And Americans knew this was really dangerous.
This is
truly the last step before you become Venezuela.
We've done all of the others.
But the last step is after an election, somebody changes the makeup of the Supreme Court, and that guarantees that they win and their party wins forever, and they drive a country right into socialism, communism, fascism, whatever ism they want.
But it's not capitalism and it's not Americanism.
So here's what he is suggesting.
And believe me, when I say this is coming,
he has put together a sweeping bill that would increase the size of the Supreme Court.
He wants 15, not nine, now 15.
And if you want to overturn a law,
you don't just have a simple majority.
You have to have two-thirds.
Now, this is interesting because there is another story out today on something else that they want to change, and that is the filibuster.
Because they say it's not fair that you need two-thirds of the Senate, or is it just 60 votes to end a filibuster?
It's just 60.
It's not even two-thirds, 60 votes to stop a filibuster.
We've had the filibuster forever.
It is the only thing that stops a
one-point victory at 50%.
You have to, if somebody says, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, and they have to stand and talk, you know what Mr.
Smith goes to Washington means.
It's just time.
That's what's required.
Time.
So people can hear the case that is in front and go, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, call all your friends.
This is wrong.
Or call all your friends.
What they're doing is right.
That's what a filibuster is.
They don't like that because they want everything voted on at a
49-51 majority.
Everything.
That will,
well, let me get into that in a second.
First, let me just finish on the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court has to have a two-thirds majority to overturn any laws that would be made by Congress
after eliminating the filibuster.
So that just needs a simple majority vote, but to overturn that, it needs two-thirds.
And you now have 15 justices.
It will also require judges to undergo yearly audits.
The IRS will have to go through.
I would like that to happen in Congress.
I'd like to have that happen in the White House.
I'd like to have that happen in the cabinet.
Why is it only for the justices?
I'm fine with that with the justices, but I want it
government-wide.
So they have to undergo audits.
And they want to remove any roadblock for high court nominations.
So in other words,
you can't just hold off and say, no,
we're not passing this person.
Now, this is what Widen said.
Listen to this.
It's not an atomic secret that the process for selecting judges is politicized.
No, it's not.
In fact, we all know that.
I think it was Barack Obama that said
elections have consequences, wasn't it?
But now that that election has a consequence that they don't like, and you put judges in that are more favorable to the Constitution and reading it as it was written, now you have to change the makeup of the Supreme Court.
I want you to know if they change the makeup of the Supreme Court, America is done.
That is the final step.
You're done.
There's no going back.
Just want to let you know that's what's on the ballot because they will pass this.
Also, they want to gut the filibuster for abortion.
So
just because their party
believes in something that the majority, I mean the vast majority of people do not agree with.
Most people do not agree with third-term abortion.
Most are against that.
They're not.
They're for abortion all the way to birth.
And then if the baby lives
through the abortion and is born alive, they feel that you can just leave that baby alone and let it die.
That's not, that, that, that is not reflective of the United States of America.
There is a bloodlust here.
They will pass that, and you will never get it back because you'll have 15 justices on the Supreme Court.
And it will take two-thirds of the Supreme Court to overturn that.
So you have a filibuster breaker.
That's going to happen.
Then on top of that, you have the Supreme Court.
That's going to happen.
What else is this government up to?
Well, the FCC, in a majority move, is now helping George Soros influence the election.
The Federal Communications Commission is now
being investigated by the House Oversight Committee.
Why would they do this?
They fast-tracked a deal that would put more than 200 radio stations in the hands of George Soros prior to November's election.
Why?
That's 165 million listeners.
165 million listeners.
Now, it was fast-tracked to avoid avoid the look-see into the financing because it's a foreign, it's foreign money that is coming in.
Where's that foreign money coming from?
Who are the foreign investors?
The FCC just said we don't need to know.
That's against the law.
This has never been done before.
But if you elect Kamala Harris, that is exactly what you will get from here on out.
Things that have never been done before are against current law.
And
I mean,
that's what you get.
Let's see what else.
Oh, how about this one?
We all know that we're spending too much money, right?
Democrats, Independents, we all know we're spending too much money.
Republicans, no, I'm not talking about the Republican Party.
I'm talking about the voters.
And I'm sick and tired of the parties doing the exact opposite of what they say they're going to do.
I think we're all sick of that.
So we're spending too much money.
Between the year
2000, let me see.
I want to make sure I'm right on this.
Between the years of
2000
and
2004 and 2022, adjusted for inflation, this government has made improper payments or just kind of whoopsie
$2.9 trillion
from 2004 to 2022.
It's just been paid to the wrong people.
$3 trillion
in 18 years.
$3 trillion just gone.
Improper payments.
Now let me tell you what the Biden administration has done.
The Biden administration is now
set to surpass by the end of its term
$1 trillion
in improper payments.
So three in 18 years
and in four years, $1 trillion.
$1 trillion has just disappeared, been given to the wrong people.
This is by far the highest amount of any improper payment of a single presidential term.
This was made to the government, wrong person, wrong amount, wrong reason.
Okay.
That means that at the rate of $7,500
per second,
that money's flying out the door.
$450,000 every minute.
We're losing.
How much money have you paid in your lifetime in taxes?
In your lifetime.
Just what this administration has
wasted
in an hour.
You'll never pay that much money.
You'll never pay that.
They've just lost it.
That's not even counting.
I want you to know that's not even counting what we have lost in this aid to Ukraine.
We all know that that money, a good portion of it, it's just gone.
It's just gone.
We all know that the money that is, that you're now just starting to track, I'm telling you,
if voices like ours are left alone in four years, in the next four years,
which if you elect
Kamala Harris, you will not hear us within four years.
We will not be allowed allowed to say these things.
If she wins
and we're allowed to actually do our job, you are going to so regret because you will see where this money has gone.
All of the money that is now being used by these NGOs.
Do you think that's all on the up and up?
All this money that's going to the NGOs, these people are traitors to our country.
These NGOs that are coming in taking millions of dollars to
move these illegals into our country.
How much money have they wasted?
How much money have they spent behind your back
buying tickets for illegals to put in your town that you never asked for?
By the way,
Michigan lawmakers have now created an anonymous tip line for children
to report improperly stored guns.
Okay, well,
you might like that, you know, improperly stored guns, you know,
might be found, you know.
However, you don't have to look much further than 1984
to see what happens.
You don't have to go back to 1938 to see when it happened last time.
Read 1984
about how parents were afraid of their own children
because their children had been indoctrinated by the state at school and told their parents might be
might be enemies of the state or doing something wrong and they should report on them.
Do you want the state teaching your children, your children, not somebody else's children, your children to spy on you and report what's happening in your home?
If this, every Democrat, if this was happening, if this was even proposed by Donald Trump, not actually done in a state, but just proposed,
you would say he is the great, he's Hitler.
Well, who is this this then?
More in a minute.
I want to tell you about an American hero.
He's an American hero named Mario Nelson.
Mario was a member of the National Guard, and when 9-11 happened, he volunteered to help with the recovery efforts.
He was down at ground zero.
That alone makes him a hero, but he didn't stop there.
He later joined the U.S.
Army.
He was deployed into Iraq, where unfortunately he was killed in action at the age of only 26.
Now, he had a wife and a daughter, and
you know, when that knock on the door came, that was bad enough.
But then they had the stress of where are we going to live?
How are we going to pay the mortgage?
And we're not talking about big mortgages.
These people, we pay them garbage.
That's where the Tunnel to Towers Foundation comes in.
They honor the legacy of those who've made the ultimate sacrifice, who've been catastrophically injured while serving our country or our communities.
Please help us do good in honor of the heroes like Mario, heroes who put their lives on the line for our country, for our Constitution, for our communities, and the freedoms we all currently enjoy.

10 seconds, station ID.
Oh, hello.
Hello, Stu.
How are you?
Sounds like a Mickey Mouse greeting.
Hello.
Hello.
I was doing pretty well, and then maybe not so much now.
Well, I mean, people have to know what the consequence is.
And it's clear.
It's not, you know, we used to...
This is the most important election of all time.
This is it.
This is not the most important.
This is the last election for the United States of America under the Constitution that we all now know and love.
It will still be called the United States of America, but it will not be the one you grew up under or the one we currently live in.
You cannot take the Supreme Court and change the makeup.
It's the end of a republic.
That's the end.
Who's the greatest?
You know, people always project.
They always project.
we're not seeing i you know when we first started exposing these people
uh i would say when we were exposing the tides foundation they would they'd kick up a storm of dust and that's when i'd say to my audience
look look there look there that's what they're doing right now when they would self they would self-diagnose you know what's happening is they're doing this look there they're self-diagnosing
it's gone from that's our suspicion to that is exactly what they're doing.
When they say that Donald Trump is going to put people in jail that disagree with him, what is Hillary Clinton saying right now?
Right now, Hillary Clinton is talking about some sort of, quote,
formal
re-education for Trump supporters.
What the hell does that mean?
Now, the left just blows by that.
You cannot blow by that.
Independents, Democrats, you cannot blow by that.
These people mean what they say.
They tell you what they're going to do.
And at this point, if you don't take them at face value,
you are
a moron.
You are you're dangerous to the republic.
In your ignorance or your failure failure to understand the ramifications, people in this country think it can never happen here.
Why?
Why?
Are we somehow or another in our own little bubble that protects us from everything that happens everywhere else in the world?
Have you read history?
Have you read what's going on?
And I don't mean in the mainstream media.
They're part of it.
How many times does the mainstream media have to lie to you before you say, wait a minute, they're liars.
How can I possibly, you wouldn't accept this from your children, you wouldn't accept this from your friend, you wouldn't accept this from your husband or your wife.
If they lied to you as much as the mainstream media lies to you, you would
have a jihad.
You'd have a personal jihad to get those people out of your life.
But somehow or another, you just keep accepting this.
You cannot.
It's the end of the road.
This is it.
Get everyone you know to go and vote this November.
It has to be a landslide.
If it's even close, they'll set the country on fire.
If it's a landslide, they'll try to set the country on fire.
But
you have to get out and vote.
You must do it.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.
We are
facing an election, and there's a lot of things that I'm against, but there's a lot of things that I am for, and that's what we should be talking about.
I am for our kids not being sexualized.
I am for a return to innocence for our children, to allow them to be children.
I am for our schools not indoctrinating our children, but teaching them math, reading, science.
I am for parents being responsible for their children.
That doesn't mean just not the government.
That means parents should take responsibility for their children.
I'm for absolute equal rights.
I'm not for special rights.
I'm absolutely for equal justice, not social justice.
I'm for a sane, legal, and orderly immigration policy that does what's right for America's future.
I am for the end of these endless wars.
I am for the end of mutilating our children and actually following real science.
I'm for safe neighborhoods, safe schools.
I'm for the little guy.
the hardworking person that keeps getting it in the butt from this government.
I am for the end of the weaponization of this country.
I'm for bad guys going to jail
and justice actually to be justice.
I'm for the end of the two-tier justice system, that if you're connected or you're in the right group, you get away with it.
I'm not a believer in
being a racist to end racism.
That's ridiculous.
That doesn't even make any sense, which means I'm for the return of common sense.
Steve Scalise is supposed to call in sometime today.
I don't know if he's calling in.
I don't.
Is he on the phone yet?
No, he's not on the phone, so I don't know if we're going to be able to get a hold of him.
But, you know, I wanted to talk to him about
what it's like to walk off or be carried off a field after being shot.
How long does it take you before you aren't feeling the aftershock of that?
You know, it takes a brave person to stand up in a crowd and speak again after you've just been shot.
And now he wants to go back to the exact same field.
He's going next week, yeah.
Steve Scalise is on with us now?
No, he's not?
Oh, okay.
We keep losing him, I guess.
Yeah, because I mean, Trump,
right after the assassination attempt, said, I'm going back.
I'm doing a rally there.
And, you know,
it seemed like maybe the Secret Service had said, please don't do that or something because it didn't seem to happen.
But now it has been scheduled.
He's going back to the exact same place.
I mean, that is, I don't know, man.
I wouldn't be able to do that.
I don't think so either.
He's certainly more brave than I am.
The one guy who would really know is Steve.
Yeah.
He would know what it's like.
Steve Scalise is with us now.
Steve, how are you?
Glenn, doing great, Glenn.
How are you?
I'm really good.
I'm good.
It's good to talk to you.
I know.
I know.
Listen, I just wanted to ask you
because what I'm seeing from Donald Trump, and now especially that he's going back to the same place where the shooting happened this summer,
you are the one guy that can relate to being shot
for your views, for who you are, and then walking back in crowds again.
What does that feel like?
How long did that take for you to
not have that natural reaction of,
you know, is there somebody, am I safe?
Am I safe?
Or did you ever have that?
Yeah, Glenn, and, you know, and I was in the hospital for three and a half months.
So, you know, you have a lot of time to focus on what, you know, what are you going to do?
Kind of how are you going to approach this kind of new, you know, attitude where, you know, you've been through something like that.
And of course, those three and a half months, I was fighting for my life.
So, you know, but part of that was I made an early decision because I really needed to put all my focus into getting better.
You know, I had to learn how to walk again, had to, you know, learn, you know, was I even going to be able to do things like that, go back to work.
And so, you know, once I got that mindset, I said, you know what, i'm not looking back like literally rip off the rearview mirror i'm not going to worry about what got me here god spared me like i knew i i was given a second chance and believe me i've talked to president trump about this since butler and you know when we you know talked about kind of because he came to the hospital the day of the shooting you know which was it was his birthday but he and melania came really consoled my family at that lowest moment but i i just made a decision i i'm not going to be a victim i'm not going to focus on why you know he did it why I got here.
I've got to put all my energy into getting better or else I won't get better.
And once I did that, it really just kind of changed my outlook and my focus.
I went back to the ball field when I got out of the hospital because I wanted to do that.
I wanted to confront that and
go kind of like, I'm not going to live in fear.
And just we, you know, we did that.
And it was therapeutic.
You know, it was emotional, but it was therapeutic.
And then just, you know, I got on with my life.
And I said, you know, God, and believe me, I have a deep faith, but I put my faith in God.
And And he, you know, he took care of me that day.
There were miracles performed.
But, you know, you kind of at some point have to say it's in his hands.
He knows what's going to happen next more than we do.
He gives us the tools, but he also gives us the freedom to go fail, to go succeed, to do whatever we want to do.
But he also looks out for us.
And, you know, at some point, you have to just have that faith that God's got the bigger plan.
You've got to control your day-to-day by, you know, what are you going to focus your energy on today?
Are you going to be positive or negative?
And I choose to be positive.
Do you, in, in watching Donald Trump, I mean, he went down on the ground.
I mean, he would have moved his head just slightly differently and he would be dead today.
It would have been the worst
live
television broadcast of all time.
And,
but, you know, he moved his head that way.
I think that was,
I think that was God interacting there.
That was divine intervention.
Absolutely.
And look, he knows that too, Glenn.
He, you know, that was part of, you know, the conversation we had is he knows he's like, Steve, I know I shouldn't be here.
And I think that recognition where you recognize life's bigger than yourself.
You know, somebody else does have a hand in all of this.
And you've just got to
let some of that go and realize you could do everything right and get hit by a truck one day.
Like, you don't know what's going to happen.
So just go live your life.
You know, do the best you can every day.
I mean, here's a man, Donald Trump, who's put himself up for persecution by so many different people who have gone after him and yet you know figuratively literally legally all of that and yet he still moves forward he still knows i have to do this for the country and and he believes that and believe me the country believes that too because you know you go to a trump rally you go to you know any part of the country and and you know people know we are at a very volatile time right now and a fragile time for the country.
You know, which direction are we going to take as a nation?
I mean, these are bigger questions than any individual, but Donald Trump represents that, you know, do we want to get back to what our country was really founded on?
You know, free market principles, you control your destiny.
Government is there to do the basics, not to control your life, not to tell you what you can and can't do.
This is going to decide all of that on November 5th.
And he knows he's the only one right now who can really turn this around.
And I believe that.
I think most people do.
And so
he recognizes, yeah, there's people that want to stop him.
I mean, we've seen it twice now directly, and it's scary, but
you can't let fear drive your life.
I tell you,
my favorite line from him was, come on, guys, let me play through.
He's like,
I was too under par.
I was having a great day.
That is crazy.
It's crazy.
But look, you have to have that mindset.
If you live in fear, just go lock yourself in a room and go in the fetal position and you'll be neutered.
He's not going to be neutered.
He's not going to live in fear.
And you got to put your trust in other people.
Obviously, Secret Service is one of those groups and that's why we're fighting so hard to get reforms at the Secret Service because they have a mission, one single mission, not diversity or wokeness.
It's to protect presidents, former presidents, vice president.
And they were failing at that.
And we are pushing hard to get them to refocus, to increase the security.
We finally got that addressed to increase the level of security President Trump Trump has because they were not giving him that opportunity.
And that led to some of these problems.
But, you know, at the end of the day, you just got to say, I'm still going to go to the rallies.
This is who I am.
And that's who he is.
You know, the majority of Americans think that there will be another assassination attempt before the election, which is really a sad commentary.
Do you believe that this really was simply
just a series of unbelievable mistakes?
Or is there any room for
maybe some of these decisions
were conscious?
I'm not saying that they set it up, but just let it slide a little bit.
Like, I'm not a big believer in coincidences.
You know,
you live long enough, you see things that, you know, not everything adds up, but if you connect the dots, you know, you realize, okay, wait, there's something else going on here.
I really do think that when you look, there are people who, and this is why I'm really, really vocal about the language.
You know, when Kamal is saying not just, hey, I don't like his tax plan.
I don't like this or that.
It's he's a threat to democracy.
He's like Hitler.
He's this or that.
That's telling people.
And there are
unhinged people out there, unfortunately, and they hear that as like a call to action.
And that's what was going on.
I mean, the second attempted assassin flat out used her exact language about threat to democracy in his mission to go try to kill the president.
You know, and so they've got to stop doing this.
It's not, hey, we all need to dial it down.
No, there's one side that's saying very specific things.
It's being taken as literally calls to action to go try to assassinate the president.
That's what they have to stop because, you know, whether it's truly coordinated in a broad scale or not, it doesn't matter.
If somebody's taking what you're saying as, okay, I need to go take action into my own hands and try to kill somebody, you've got to stop saying that.
At some point, you've got to look in the mirror and go, my words are causing somebody else to want to kill somebody.
And if you think, oh, I can just say whatever I want, you know, there's free speech and then there's, you know, yelling fire in the theater.
I mean, there's a line.
And now you've seen where they've crossed it and they've seen it.
They need to stop doing it.
So I had a brush, not nearly like yours or Donald Trump's, but a brush similar to the one that he had on the golf course.
And I know that freaked me out.
Immediately, I thought, what am I willing to die for?
It changed my language.
You know, it changed,
I was not going to die for things I didn't absolutely believe.
Did that go through you as well?
It was more a shift in focus.
Like, what is really important in life?
You know, what are you doing all of this for?
You know, we all know, you know, especially you get into politics, you run campaigns and you say, you know, I'm going to fight for this or that.
I mean, you know, I have strong beliefs.
I go to Washington and you find out quickly not everybody believes in everything exactly like you do.
So you need to then start putting coalitions together, you know, finding people that maybe believe in 80% of what you believe in because you're not going to get it done on your own.
Yet you still want to advance your cause.
And I still want to advance the things I believe in, but I also know what was most important, and that's my family.
You know, I wanted to see my family.
That was the first thing that came to my mind when I was laid out and not sure if I was going to make it through the day.
You know, it wasn't, gee, was, what's my next title going to be?
Or what's my, you know, you know,
the next bill going to be.
You're not thinking about any of that.
You know, we all are going to walk away from these jobs.
And what are you going to look back on?
What's the thing you want?
Correct.
Well, first of all, you better want to walk back home to the family you started with and have your integrity intact.
And then you can start thinking about, you know, wow, I was able to move the needle on this.
I was able to advance what I believe in, you know, 20, 30 more yards on that.
And hopefully you can say you did that.
There are some people that won't even be able to look back because they spend all their time, you know, just talking and trying to get attention and they never advance their own causes.
And you don't want to waste your time in life.
And so you do realize time is important.
Life is important.
Make every minute count.
Steve Scalise from Louisiana, the House Majority Leader.
Thank you so much for coming on with me, Steve.
I appreciate it.
God bless you.
Always a pleasure, Glenn, and God bless you too.
Thank you.
Thank you.
All right, let me talk to you a little bit about Legacy Box.
You know, we all had VCRs, but if you want to watch any of those old videotapes that you taped, where are you going to find a VCR?
You know, you're going to Indiana Jones it into a pile of wasteland in your attic or the garage, hoping against hope that there's a VCR before that avalanche of all your other crap from decades past falls on you.
Seems kind of like a bad idea, especially when you could just send those old tapes to Legacy Box and have them preserved.
It's a simple and safe way to digitize your treasured videotapes, your film reels, your photos.
They've helped over a million families so far.
Everything is done by hand right here in the U.S.
Buy a team of professionals who know how important your memories are.
The process is so easy.
Simply send your tapes into Legacy Box filled with the old VHS tapes, camcorder tapes, pictures.
Their team professionally digitizes everything by hand and you'll get it back on a thumb drive or in the cloud along with the originals.
So for a limited time, get started preserving your past and save 50%.
Go to legacybox.com/slash records to revisit and share.
Special memories from your past, legacybox.com/slash records.
You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.
Welcome to the Glend Back program.
We're so glad that you're here.
Thanks for listening.
It's interesting listening to, because
maybe we can get into this next hour whenever we have time but that conversation about
about what you're saying your rhetoric
is simultaneously really persuasive to me especially in this climate when Donald Trump has had two assassination attempts and multiple others correct that are you know weren't quite as close
It's persuasive to me, but also as a broadcaster, a person who's been doing this for 20 years, how many times have they come at you, Glenn, and said, hey, the words you said are cause this.
And it's like, well, you can't really really be held responsible for that.
I know
you try to be a responsible party and making sure that you don't say things that might inspire someone, even though it's not your responsibility.
I have preached against violence
in my entire career.
However, I think you make a good point, but I'd like to open that up and discuss, if we can, sometime later on in the podcast.
Back in a minute.
The Glenn Beck Program.

So I didn't know what to expect from Roseanne Barr.
I met her a couple of days ago in Dallas.
She was with Tucker Carlson.
And I went into her dressing room beforehand, and she got up and she was just really sweet.
Just very, very sweet.
And I remember, don't you remember her not liking me at some point?
I could have sworn, and I have not looked this up yet, but I could have sworn on one of your books,
might have been an inconvenient book.
Or arguing with Idiots.
Arguing with Idiots.
If you have that book, look on the back and then call us.
Yeah, because we did a bunch of quotes from people who hated you as like the endorsement quotes, and they're all just like people who despised you.
and one of them i swear was her and i'm she may have called you like you know a vampire or something she had some really in funny insults and i don't remember what it was uh but i think we put it on there for that reason and that was years ago so she said because i said you know i guess you know things have changed you know we probably you know wouldn't have sat down and she just looked at me like i was insane and she said i've always liked you i've always thought you got it i don't think that's it that's it i'm gonna fact check that one one, Glenn.
Yeah, yeah.
But remember, she ran
as a candidate for the Peace and Freedom Party.
I think she was also a Green Party candidate
at one point.
That is a legitimately socialist organization.
Like that is 100%.
But she's, I don't know if she's had a change or she just rethought, or maybe she wasn't as if she hadn't really thought out those views.
I think she has.
I don't know.
I mean, I talked to her about it.
I asked her.
I'm not sure her answer was really clear
on it.
But,
you know, we agree on an awful lot of stuff and she's funny.
And she is,
because when you watch the, it's the lighting, it has to be, when you watch the
podcast, I have to apologize to her for the lighting because she's actually, and
everybody in the building said this, she's actually really beautiful.
And I don't know why that doesn't come across on television, but she is.
She's really quite lovely um but anyway uh so we had to we had a conversation and and i asked her about a few things listen to this this is about her getting kicked off of her own show by abc listen to this when you left roseanne
did you have any friends that stood up for you publicly did anybody i mean i
I reached out to ABC.
I heard you did that.
It's very kind of you.
Thank you.
It's wrong.
We don't cancel people.
We don't.
And kill them.
And kill their character.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then steal their life's work and turn it leg tard.
Let's talk.
That's what really burns my heart.
I want to go back to what you just said.
They killed Roseanne.
Yeah.
Well, I think they did.
They killed the character on the show.
That's incredible.
And then they asked me, check this out.
Then they called me when they saw they weren't, nobody's.
Anyway, they called me and asked me, did I want to make a guest appearance on the show they stole from me?
I'm dead.
As a ghost.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my gosh.
I said, I'm bowling that day.
They're demonic.
They're so short-sighted because they're arrogant and ignorant.
But, you know, they are just evil, too what they did to me was evil but what made me so mad because i was waiting for this other shoe to drop since i went back because
they hated
trump so bad and i i i thought well they when they hear the facts
No.
But then I knew, oh, it's because they know the facts.
That's why they hate him.
But it was consistent with the show.
Donald Trump is the guy for the blue-collar worker.
That's what I say.
Even if you didn't, even if you personally didn't like him, he's the guy the Connor family would have supported.
Of course.
And I didn't want to be the one that was for Trump because I thought that was too on the head.
I thought it should have been, you know, Dan Connor
because it was mostly working-class men that were, you know, at that time.
But he wouldn't do it.
John Goodman wouldn't do it.
And neither would any of the other characters on the show portray
the Trump voter.
But I wanted to show both,
both sides, still loving on each other in the same family, because that's America.
Yeah.
And maybe fighting about it, but certainly not trying to kill each other.
And they were trying to push us to that.
And that's why I came back, because I didn't want to see America polarized like that.
And I knew that their whole thing was leading to segregation.
I knew it.
And I knew that.
So that's what the left was going for.
But that is what Norman Lear did with All in the Family.
Two very big opposites, but they did not break up the family.
It's still, the family was still together.
And
they'd have brawls, but it was funny.
And in the end, they still loved each other.
ADC didn't see that?
No, and I also wanted to show that the working class is the most integrated class in America.
And, you know, they hated all that too.
But the thing is that nobody would portray the Trump voter.
And I felt it was too on the head for me to do it.
But it fell to me because nobody else would do it.
Isn't that amazing?
So I asked her,
you know, how it went down at ABC.
And
she said, well,
at first, ABC
called me in and wanted me to apologize
and listen to Cut Eight.
When I came back to ABC, the first thing they did, the publicist, said, Before I will represent you, because the publicists are all in bed with the devil in Hollywood, they're all, I always say, lesbian, the lesbian witch publicist cabal.
And you mean that literally?
Of course.
Yeah.
And
she said to me, before I will,
with my magnificence,
entertain a flea such as yourself, an overweight, unkempt flea such as yourself, I need you to issue an apology to the transgender LGBTQCIA community
for...
And I said, I've already told y'all, no, I will not.
then we sat there staring at each other it's not gonna go we tell our kids to be safe not to let bad touch why don't you now in the schools they're saying this is good touch
when a drag queen puts her wiener in your face that's good touch I mean it's just
and I just kept going with it because I was like this is wrong This is wrong.
It doesn't make any common.
It makes no sense that you would make children your target.
I'm not going to apologize.
Well, they came after me.
This was what, 2013.
Oh, my God.
I saved every tweet.
You're a cow, you know, you know, because they're tolerant.
You're a cow.
It went like this.
I kept it in order.
Cow,
pig, fat slob, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, ends with Zionist baby killer.
All of it, and it all ends with Zionist baby killer.
I'm telling you, they're the same people.
Yeah, I know.
And they're sitting at home on disability.
I'm probably paying their damn wage with my taxes there to sit on their ass and do that, to terrorize old women, and particularly old women who are for children's rights against them.
And they're all in it together.
They're all getting paid.
And, you know, it's just the witches.
I think we.
And they're protecting pedophiles.
And children are their targets.
And let's just be really real about it.
That's why I love Trump.
The first thing he did was sign a paper against human trafficking of children.
And that's what they're doing at the border.
Look at that.
Look at that.
And they're all for it.
Because they have no standards and they have no morality.
And it's not about their wieners or what their rights are or any of that.
They're all involved in evil,
evil
child murdering crap.
And I'm not going to be silent about, nor will I apologize to any of them.
They can apologize to me for ruining, you know, everything I work for except for surprise, surprise, I'm back and I'm even stronger.
And I have my own network now.
And they can kiss my big fat ass.
Oh my gosh.
So at the end, I asked her, I said, I just want to read some names.
Just tell me what you think.
First word that pops into your head.
Listen to this.
I've got a list of names.
Okay.
This is just rapid fire.
Okay.
Okay.
First thing that comes to you.
You're going to say something mean or nice.
No, you can say whatever.
Whatever comes to you.
Let me see what mood I'm in.
I'm in my comic mood.
Okay, good.
This should be good and entertaining.
Gavin Newsom.
Clone.
Taylor Swift.
They made him off the scrapings scrapings of Nancy Pelosi's.
What do you call it?
What's it called?
Poopa.
Loofah.
Poop.

Foopa.
Okay.
Taylor Swift.
Satan.
Really, do you?
Do you want to...
We don't have to stop and.
I just can see
who's doing the devil's work.
She is just, I guess she's talented.
Talented.
Cute.
Satan.
Satan.
A talent.
Travis Kelsey.
Plant.
What do you mean?
He's her beard.
White dudes for Harris.
Oh, my lord.
Satan.
Zelensky.

Are you going to give all of these Satan?
Well, they are.
Okay.
Putin.
Scary.
Zi Jingping.

Nancy Pelosi.
Satan.
Scary.
Worse than.
Worse than all the above.
Pete Buddhajudge.
Oh, oh, God.
Zim.
Mark Hamill.
Clone.
Mark Ruffalo.
Oh, my God.
Hamas.
The The cast of the view.
What is happening?
Lesbian witches.
George W.
Bush.
Satan.
John Goodman.
Weiner.
The people that make up BlackRock.
I pray for them every day because Rosh Hashona is coming, and I'm telling you what, they're not going to get away with it, and they better repent because it's the time for Jews to go back to source.
And I'm telling you what, it's not going to work for you this time.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Not this time.
Better get ready.
George Soros.
I am unable to answer that as he's already threatened to sue me.
Satan.
Mel Gibson.
Satan and Hitler together.
Okay.
They won't use that in the court of law at all.
Mel Gibson.
Cute.
Cute.
He's cute.
He was so nice to me.
He's a nice guy.
He let me use the scenes from Braveheart for my Hanukkah Play at My Synagogue.
It's so nice.
She goes into talking about her, I know, crazy, right?
I feel like that one's going to make the rounds.
I feel like her rundown of those people
got to maybe spread around a little bit this weekend.
Wow.
She is just fearless.
Oh, she's fearless.
Oh, there's no doubt about that.
I at times was hoping you would not follow up.
I was like, please don't ask her why.
No.
Move on, man.
But I love her.
Oh, yeah.
Fearless is the right word.
She does not care at all.
Yeah.
You'll see that tomorrow, wherever you get your podcast.
It's worth watching, too,
because
she's just better to watch.
And you can see that, I think, tomorrow as well on YouTube or at Glenbeck.com.
I'm sorry, Blazetv.com.
Roseanne Barr, the next podcast episode.
All right, Relief Factor.
Alicia wrote in about her experience with Relief Factory.
She said, 52.
I don't get much of a rest from bad knees.

10 seconds station ID.
Okay, so one of the producers just
came in with Arguing with Idiots.
Discover Magazine, Glenn Beck's an Idiot.
This is interesting.
The whole thing is interesting.
What is Discover Magazine?
I don't know.
Is that even a thing?
First of all, I'm sure it's not a magazine anymore, but you're still on the air.
Is Discover Magazine?
Does that exist?
Well,
there's a couple of magazines.
Time Magazine, which doesn't exist.
It doesn't exist anymore.
Leading the Lunatic Fringe.
Vanity Fair, a half-informed radio blowhard.
Keith Oberman, only in his wildest dreams could an actual suicide bomber hope to do as much damage to this country.
That's a good one.
Yeah, that's a funny one.
Whoopi Goldberg, a lying sack of dog mess.
I remember that.
Tina Brown, a frightfully strange man.
Tina Brown.
Yeah.
And Roseanne Barr, a vampire, dot, dot, dot, a death lover.
I've got to send this to her.
Yes.
I want an autograph.
Yes.
So maybe we'll auction the book off with her autograph and my autograph for charity or something.
That's great.
Because she said, no, no, no, I've always liked you.
And I'm like, I think so.
Well, maybe she just likes vampires and death wars.
I don't know.
She's talking about.
She's not vampires.
No, she doesn't.
She doesn't clear vampires.
By the way, we're looking at the other backs of the, we did this on a couple of books.
An Inconvenient book, which is your, I think the book right before Argument.
Looking at some of those is really interesting as well.
Keith Olbermann again.
There's something about him that suggests that one night he'll say something that will cost him his career.
Now, that's fascinating because you still have a career.
What does Keith have?
He's been fired like 98 times since he made that quote.
I like this one.
Glenn Beck shouldn't be on the air, so you should be canceled, said the guy who in a few years would be canceled and removed from the Senate, right?
This one's, of course, entertaining.
Glenn Beck is CNN's chief corporate fascism advocate, RFK Jr.
Oh my god.
On the back of the window.
You should have had him sign it too.
Sign it.
Yeah, I mean, it's fascinating.
Most of these people still hate your guts.
A couple of them have come around.
They've been come around.
Fascinating to look at that.
You got a Stephen King on there, Jon Stewart, Rolling Stone.
It is,
I guess you never know what's going to happen in the future.
That's what I said to her.
I said, you know, things have changed so much.
You know, I was, you know, I was for the Iraq war.
Now I'm like, wait, uh-uh.
But we learned a lot.
And I will say, if I remember right, that was one of the big Roseanne problems with you.
Yeah, it could be.
I think it was.
I feel like when she ran, that was one of her big, one of her big issues.
That would make sense, Death Lover.
And she calls vampires,
I think, I haven't quite figured out what she means by vampires yet,
but
I think that is people who just thrive on blood.
You know, so war, and because she's, you know, the Ukraine war, war,
you know, that thing is, that thing is really getting close.
Zelensky is supposed to meet with Trump.
Trump today.
Yeah.
Yeah.
At Trump Tower.
So that's going to be a fascinating development, see how that plays out.
I mean, look, Trump has been, he's not as against the Ukraine war as a lot of his supporters are.
Even J.D.
Vance, I would say.
I mean, Trump has been much more balanced in saying, we'll get this thing over with.
Yeah.
But he's not completely opposed with, you know,
taking on
strong negotiation for that.
Glenn Beck.
That's what it's going to take.
Sometimes there's a choice.
It's so obvious you'll look back and go, what the heck was I even thinking?
Why, that was clearly the right choice.
Well, when it comes to your phone service,
the clear choice is Patriot Mobile.
They share your values.
They won't send your hard-earned money to aid in the destruction of America.
A lot of people doing that right now, which is strange.
In fact, a lot of members of our government are just sending your money in to aid the destruction of America.
You know, your tax dollars.
You're going to get the same nationwide service if you're on one of the big three.
because they're on the same cell tower, so you get the same service, all while supporting a company that loves America, loves God, and supports our police.
Switching over is very, very easy.
Right now, when you make the switch to Patriot Mobile, you're going to get a whole month for free.
They're America's only Christian conservative mobile company, and their mission is to passionately defend our God-given constitutional rights and freedoms and glorify God always.

So I want to tell you something that is happening this weekend that is truly important.
Ali Bass Stuckey's Share the Arrows event is happening tomorrow, and it's not just another event.
This is specifically for women who are ready to equip themselves against the insanity of the world and stand firm in what they actually believe.
And she's got a powerhouse lineup of speakers,
and Allie is joining us now.
Hi, Allie.
Hi, Glenn.
Thanks so much.
That was a great pitch for the event.
Well, thank you.
Thank you.
I had Chat GPT right it.
No, I'm kidding.
So
tell me about the event.
Are the tickets still available?
Yes, some spots are still available.
I am so thankful that this has surpassed our expectations for the size of this event, but we do still have spots available.
People can go to sharethearrows.com.
It's going to be an incredible day of worship.
We've got a Grammy Award-winning artist, Francesca Battistelli, leading worship.
And then, as you said, just a powerhouse lineup of speakers, Cameras Candace Cameron Buret.
We've got Rosaria Butterfield and many others as well.
And we've got almost 4,000 women that are going to be there.
And they're flying in from all over the country, even Canada, to be challenged and encouraged with the truth.
So I just can't wait.
And if anyone, especially anyone in the Dallas area, can get there tomorrow, then I encourage you to just go to sharethearrows.com and get your ticket.
I tell you, I think this is so important.
You know, we saw a poll that
about 50% of Christians just don't vote.
And if we don't have every single Christian going out to vote, and especially at this time, I mean, Allie, help me out on this.
We were talking about this earlier today that, you know, we always say.
Well, that's the most important election of our lifetime.
But this one is maybe the last election for a constitutional republic named the United States of America.
How do we appeal to women who some of them don't like Donald Trump,
religious people, and get those people out of the pews that are sitting there and they agree, but they just don't vote?
Yeah, there's so much out there and a lot of confusion even coming from the pulpit or just lack of courage coming from the pulpit.
So even if a pastor doesn't talk about specifically who to vote for, every pastor, because they are preaching from the Bible, should should be talking about the issues that are at stake.
Issues like abortion and gender and family.
These are not primarily political issues for the Christian.
They're primarily theological issues.
They go all the way back to the first chapter of the first book of the Bible.
So seeing what is at stake.
existentially when it comes to the subversion of gender, the subversion of the family, the denial of the dignity of life inside the womb, even the chaos and lawlessness that is enabled by open borders policy, we can look at what the Bible says.
We can look at the character of God and say, he is a God of order.
He created us male and female.
He created life inside the womb.
For us, we believe that God is in charge, that God is better.
We have to advocate.
for these things that we know are good for our neighbors.
Politics is not the number one way to love your neighbor, but it's a way to love your neighbor.
We cannot vote against these things that God says are good and right and true.
Someone is not saved by their vote, but while we do still live in this constitutional republic where you can exercise that right, that is being a good steward of the rights and the privileges that God has given you.
It is ensuring or trying to ensure policies that are going to be best for your most vulnerable neighbors.
And so that's the appeal that I'm making to Christian women.
I'm going kind of underneath the headlines and the talking points and even what we see in the debates.
Like, what are these truly biblical issues and how should we look at them?
That is so valuable.
Is this going to be online at all?
It is going to be online.
So, we haven't announced it on social media yet, but I can announce it right now that for Blaze TV subscribers, Blaze TV subscribers, they will be able to access Share the Arrows on Monday.
So,
they can go to Blazetv.com slash Alley, use the promo code Share the Arrows.
You'll get a big discount on your membership, on your subscription.
And at 5 p.m.
on Monday, there will be like a whole nationwide
watch party for people who want to watch Share of the Arrows on Monday.
And then, of course, they'll be able to access it anytime after that, too.
So subscribe, BlazeTV.com, use ShareTheArrows for that discount.
And yes, they'll be able to see it online.
Have you encouraged people who don't necessarily know who they're voting for?
Are you going to be addressing that and talking to those people too?
I guarantee that there will be people at this event, women.
It's just a a women's event, and you can't just identify as a woman.
You've got to be a woman.
But
there will be women there
that are not Christians.
There will be women there who probably are politically apathetic.
There may even be women who are coming with a friend, and maybe they're on the left, and they're politically confused or deceived.
And so we will be speaking to the heart of the issues.
This is not primarily a political conference in that we're not really going up there and saying, you know, this is, these are the candidates' policies and here's exactly how you vote.
But my hope is, especially in my speech, is to lay out who Christians are supposed to be, what we've always been, which is a refuge of clarity and courage in an age of cowardice and confusion.
We have always been culture changers.
We have always been a boil on the back of tyrants.
We have always spoken out against policies that have robbed children of their innocence or created lawlessness.
And when we look at the policies of the two parties, while neither party is perfect, it's clear who is the party of disorder and chaos and which party at least will give us a better chance of creating order and creating a culture of life.
So that's really what I want to speak to to get to the heart of those issues.
Have you noticed
a
less interest or more interest from moms?
You know, when things started happening in school, moms were on fire, as they should have.
Is that increased, decreased, or is it about the same?
Yeah, you'll notice from the Democrat side, they have really kind of gone hush-hush about the gender issue.
Like at the DNC and in the debate, the gender ideology issue did not come up.
I think that Democrats are really hoping that suburban moms forget about that, that they're trying to transfer kids and tell your kid in kindergarten that maybe they were born in the wrong body and read them I am jazz.
So, of course, there are going to be women who,
not that they've forgotten about that, but maybe they're less enthusiastic about that.
But my hope is to reignite that vigor that they felt a couple of years ago when we were all talking about this, especially in the state of Florida.
I think that moms are still fired up, especially when it comes to the health care system and parental rights.
Everyone is talking about that right now.
And so moms are definitely thinking, okay, how do I best protect my rights as a parent and my children?
I'm so glad that people are coming from other countries as well and getting involved because this is not just an American thing.
This is everywhere.
It's everywhere in the Western world.
Ellie, thank you so much, and best of luck.
We'll be praying for you this weekend.
Thank you, Glenn.
I appreciate it.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
Hello, America.
It's Friday.
We, you know, I just did a podcast with Roseanne Barr, and Rob Schneider is coming up in just a minute.
He'll be on with us Friday.
Let's have some comedians on.
He's got a new book out.
So we'll talk to him from Saturday Night Live.
And the podcast with Roseanne Barr comes out tomorrow.
You can get it wherever you get your podcast.
Tonight, right after the show, actually, I'm going to St.
Louis.
The Eagle Forum.
Phyllis Schlafly's
outfit is presenting my wife with the National Homemaker of the Year Award.
That's cool.
Yeah, it's really cool.
I think it's because of her, well, either her lasagna or pot pies.
I'm not.
They're not clear about that?
Yeah.
No, it's because she has weathered storms, and the family has weathered storms,
and she's really kept the family together.
It's quite an honor.
Yeah, it's a real honor.
Yeah, really cool.
She doesn't speak, so she's vomiting blood right now.
Okay.
Because she has to give away.
But she speaks.
She doesn't do a lot of public speaking.
She doesn't.
She
hates it.
Hates it.
And so she's very, very nervous.
So just be kind
as she gets up.
Don't just stare at her.
If you're sitting there at the dinner and she gets the award, don't just stare at her like, better be good.
Bring it on.
Better be good.
Don't taunt her.
Yeah, don't taunt her.
In fact, if you could actually show up naked, it would be probably good for her.
You know, they always say, or just in your underwear.
You know, they always say, imagine them in the underwear.
Yeah, she'll probably be so nervous you won't be able to imagine.
So just show up in your underwear.
I'm pretty sure neither Tanya or Phyllis Schlafly's organization is going to advocate for that.
It's not a great idea, but
it might work.
Anyway, my wife is going to Allie's event,
Share the Arrows, which is, she's very excited about.
I will be doing taxes.
This is what you do in late September.
You know, it's like everyone gets together and does their taxes.
Tax Day.
October 15th is right around the corner, everybody.
Yeah.
Which is the...
You always delay.
Always file an extension every year.
Yes.
That is what I do.
Well, now it's at the point that if I did my taxes on time, it would be way too close to the last time I did them.
Right.
Right?
Right.
Because
it's April.
I finished them and all of a sudden, it's like I'm doing it all the time.
But I will say, though,
yesterday I had all these forms, and this is another part of me just being behind.
I didn't.
I didn't extract them on time.
One of my bank websites has the statements on there.
But if i don't take them out on time it won't let me download all the transactions so i have to go through all the statements and like type them in every year this is a very stupid story but it takes like hours because i have to do i have to have you thought of having like hr block help you out or something i have an accountant i just have to prepare the stuff to tell her i can't just send it all to her in that form and make her do it i have to like actually man they're lucky to get stuff from me on you know mcdonald's grease all over everything Yeah.
I mean, I suppose I could hire somebody to do it, but it's also like personal financial information.
So I don't necessarily love.
So anyway, and this is going to, with that,
that sort of point, it's going to make this point probably funny.
But I was talking, I was like looking at these forms and I was like, I'm looking at all these files and I want to get them into a spreadsheet.
And then I talked to my friend.
I was like, I'm going to text my friend.
My friend, who is
kind of an AI guy, like he loves it.
And he's in there all the time.
And he's taking like chat GPT and making, like, having it write code to with different forms of chat GPT to do specific tasks, and he's doing all this stuff.
And he always talks to me about it, and I don't know what I never know what he's talking about.
But I was like, maybe he knows something.
Like, maybe there's one of these things out here that can just take all this data off these stupid files and just import them automatically
in the spreadsheet rather than me typing them all out.
So
I text him.
He's like, oh, yeah, let me look into it.
And five minutes later, he sends me a link to one of these chat GPT bots.
All I have to do is slide the file into it.
It just goes through it, extracts all the data into perfect columns with all of the numbers in the right places.
I mean, it must have saved me four hours.
Oh, my gosh.
And it was like instant, basically.
It was a few minutes.
All I had to do was copy it and paste it right into this page.
No hallucinations.
Yeah, I did check it a bunch of times.
I was worried about like, okay, I don't think I remember spending $100 million at Subway.
Right.
But yeah, no, it was all perfect.
That's amazing.
And it's like,
it's still so early.
I mean, when did we even start hearing about Chat GPT?
A year ago?
Mm-hmm.
Next year, next year is going to be a very big year for Chet, for GPT.
For all of it, yeah.
You know, Gemini is just releasing this.
Apple has some
AI thing on it now.
But what I keep coming back to on this is
there are certain things that are just too good.
Like
global warming activists all the time will start saying like, we need to, to, what are you doing?
We need to have it.
We can't have it at 68 degrees in all these homes.
You need to have it at 75.
That's fine.
You're going to make your own butter.
You're right.
Without cows.
And you know what?
Sorry.
Air conditioning's too good.
Yeah.
Grocery stores are too good.
Yeah.
Us having 900 varieties of butter, it's too good.
People are never going to resist it based on what you're saying because it works too well.
And honestly, we're going to get to that point with AI.
It's going to do stuff that just makes your life
easier.
It's why I said
15 years ago, we have to have this discussion now.
You've been saying it forever.
Yeah, we have to have this conversation now because when it happens, it will be too good and it will happen too fast.
And you won't be able to say, wait a minute, we should have some guardrails.
It's like phones, right?
I know.
We are all looking at this data now.
We're like, hey, seems to be ruining the lives of all of our children.
Should we have given them phones at the beginning?
For the first three years, everybody loved it.
Yeah.
Everybody Everybody loved it.
Everybody's like, this is life.
This is life-changing.
This is game-changing.
Look at this.
It took time.
Took time.
And then we all went, holy crap, it's destroying our society and our families.
Read the Jonathan Hype book if you don't believe that.
Yeah.
And we're at the same thing.
We're in the nice period of AI.
And maybe this one lasts five years.
I don't think so, but maybe this lasts five years.
And you're going to start seeing, uh-oh, wait a minute.
Hang on.
That's too much.
Yeah.
And I just don't think people will be able to resist it.
No, they won't.
I mean, we used to say that about Google.
People are like, oh, Google is too involved.
And you're like, yeah, but it works better than the other search engines.
And the maps are nice.
And the email is a good program.
And so everyone uses it.
And it's like, you can tell, we're doing this all the time.
You can tell people, don't use this thing that makes your life easier.
Show that you're making, you got to do it the hard way.
That's just not the way people operate.
And if we don't figure out a way to get this under control in some sensible way for civilization, we're going to have some major problems here.
Not art civilization?
Yeah, I promise you.
I don't think so.
The Glenn Beck program.
We're gonna stay together
If we're gonna survive,
stay the straight
and hold the line.
It's a new day, a time to ride.
Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Hello, America.
It's Friday.
You know, it never used to be dangerous to speak your mind in America.
You know, never feared about speaking your mind in America.
And that's the first sign of trouble in a democratic republic.
If you start to fear the government for what you say, if you fear that you're going to be canceled in prison, I mean, unless you're, you know, doing lectures on how to build bombs.
No, actually, you know, not even that.
The left did that, you know, back in the 60s and they were left alone.
So
you should never be in fear of speaking your opinion, but a lot of people are.
One person that is not
is Rob Schneider, the comedian and actor, been in 27 movies, I think.
And from Saturday Night Live, very funny comedian on the road, speaking his mind, has a new book, You Can Do It.
He joins us in 60 seconds.
First, imagine for a moment being part of an organization that is saving 200 human lives every single day.
I mean, do you remember what it felt like when we saved, what was it, 22,000 as an audience, 22,000 people in Afghanistan and got them out?
I mean, that's one of the best things that I've ever been involved in.
This pales, pales in comparison.
This This is, or the opposite, right?
That pales in comparison to this is what you're talking about.
It pales in comparison compared to what we're doing on saving babies' lives.
The country's largest pro-life organization has partnered with us and with you, and they are
providing free ultrasounds for their moms.
So somebody comes into a pre-born clinic and they say they want to have an abortion, the first thing they do, give her a free ultrasound.
Let's see how far along you are.
When the mom sees the baby and hears the heartbeat, she's twice as likely to choose life for her baby.
But then these women feel alone, abandoned, nobody in their life supports it.
And so what are they going to do?
Well, that's where pre-born steps in again and saves the mom by saying, look, for the first two years, we'll be there.
What do you need?
The baby clothes, the food, how to raise.
We'll do everything with you.
We're not going to just leave you alone because we care about the mom as much as we do about the baby.

Rob.
Rob Schneider's with us.
Hi, Rob.
Hey, Glenn, good to be back, man.
It's been a while.
How are you?
Very good.
I've been watching your clips on,
I don't even know if it's X or wherever, but I've been seeing your clips come up.
Very funny stuff.
Very funny.
Thank you.
Wherever I'm allowed to pop up.
You know, it's funny you're mentioning about bomb making.
I was thinking, how is it that the Democrats seem to get away with like Madonna saying, I've often thought about bombing the white, and then nothing happens.
The Secret Service doesn't visit.
You know, Johnny Defkins say, you know, who is the last actor who assassinated a president?
Like, what is that?
I mean, how is that not like on a list somewhere?
Yeah.
How do they get away with that?
It's just, because it's not an equal, it's not a,
it is definitely a two-tiered system, and one-tier gets away with everything.
So how do you feel about when you're traveling the country, how do you feel about how things are shaping up?
Do you think people are waking up fast enough to turn the tide this election?
I think so.
I think what you have
I think you have like that Stanley Milgram study, you know, 1961, Yale study, where he kind of which we kind of was reinforced in 19 well, during the
COVID tyranny, which basically, you know, the study, Stanley Milgram, he did this thing where he had
people in white coats telling, seeing somebody in another room, these pushing these buttons, and the guy in the other room was an actor pretending to get these
electric shock, and they would keep pushing the button until the point of death if a person of authority figure told them.
And the real truth of that is 65% of people will go along with authority no matter what.
So it kind of broke down to me
during the COVID tyranny and lies,
was that a third can get fanatical and will go along with whatever the government says.
And a third will just go along because it's easier and they don't necessarily believe it
or they're not fanatic.
And then a third, and luckily a third in America said no to it.
Do you know why, Rob?
Have you ever thought, why are you awake?
Why am I awake?
What is it about us that just says, no, I'm not going down that road?
I think when you get attacked and you survive
something rational and logic for using your brain, and then
you see people who are, you know, the word that I think really makes sense is bad faith actors.
Because you have somebody who,
their faith, it's a knowing lie.
And it's evil.
And then, but what happens is in our society, and I think it's become more and more prevalent now as
the arise in evil that
you and I have talked about, is that there's a higher prevalence for
this evil that is rising.
And I think people do wake up to it, and I think people are appalled by it.
And I think once they try to walk you out and
you're breaking up so badly.
Are you there?
I'm sorry.
Yeah, that's right.
Once they try to destroy you and you survive, you get emboldened.
And that's really what I felt like.
And I felt like the same thing when you were attacked, you know, and how dare you try to start your own media company?
How dare you try to
follow your faith and to love your country.
So I I think that happens.
But and I also feel like
my parents raised me.
My my mother was a sur a war survivor in the Philippines who came from nothing.
And my father, you know, I I heard my father, you know, telling me stories about, you know, you can't trust the government completely because they don't have your best interests in mind.
And that kind of stuck with me.
And I didn't want to believe it.
But I think we have come to the point now where I think it's hitting an apex where we need more people to stand up.
But the good news is
that a third is all we need.
And, you know, that's what we had during COVID.
A third of the people said F you to the COVID tyranny.
And, you know, during the revolution, you know, during the great American Revolution, unlike the French Revolution, which was bloody and awful, people cutting off heads, our revolution, we still kept property rights and we kept the rule of law.
And so,
and it was a great revolution, something to be proud of.
It was based under God and had principles.
And basically, a third of the colonists were loyalists to the crown, to England, and the greatest power in the world at the time.
A third were ambivalent, and a third were
for getting behind
the revolution.
And we won that war.
Yeah, and I think it was only about 15 or 20 percent that was actually diehard.
That was like, we are not going back
to the king.
So it doesn't
take that much.
When we won the war, it was at 30 percent.
Yeah.
And so
that 30 percent is roughly what we have right now.
So I'm buoyant about it.
And I do think when I travel around the country, I mean, the problem is, you know, people come up to me and say, thank you for speaking your mind.
I can't go anywhere without it.
And that's the title of my book, you know, my, you know, Rob Schneider's, You Can Do It, Speak Your Mind, America.
Because we've got to get back to that.
I mean, and that when people come up to me, the problem is people aren't hearing the truth because we have, and that's why, thankfully, you know, your program is so important.
And because we have to break the the hegemony of this
illiberal, because it's not liberal, it is illiberal media, which is 90% plus of what the media out there.
And they don't want you to have that.
They don't even want Glenn Beck.
They don't want you to have yours.
So it is dictatorial, and we have to break that.
And people are waking up to it.
And they're coming around.
I believe it.
Trevor Burrus: So Wanda Sykes was out yesterday, and she said, you know, they're going to put us, if Trump wins, they're going to put comedians like me in jail, which is just ridiculous.
And yet, I was talking to Roseanne Barr yesterday, and I think you would echo this.
I said, you know, comedy was almost dead.
They almost killed it.
I said, but it's coming back.
And she cut me off and said, with a vengeance, it's coming back.
She said, and the best comedy is conservative comedy right now, without a doubt.
You know, and the, you know, the Democrats, I'd love to hear like Oprah and the Governor Pritzker talking, these billionaires complaining about, you know, middle people
and
what the problems are.
No, this is a land of opportunity.
It's not a guaranteed land of success.
It wasn't to be a perfect system.
It was, you know, it was supposed to be
a better union.
It was supposed to have an opportunity.
And so, you know, for them complaining, it's funny because, you know, again, the media is 95% in their camp.
What are they complaining about?
Look at the the wealth in America now.
The Republican Party has become the party of the people.
70% of the wealth in America is in the hands of the Democrats.
And what are they complaining about?
I love they're complaining about we're not going back.
Well, they've been the ones in control.
Yeah,
we are going to go back.
We're going to go back to where people know which bathrooms to use.
I'm sorry that you don't, Democratic Party.
But we're going to go back to a country that doesn't allow 14-year-olds.
Here we have 14-year-old girls.
A lot of these are
autistic girls.
We need to get America healthy again.
That's another point.
But
they're not allowed to drive, get a tattoo, to vote,
to get a gun, because they're not mature enough to make decisions.
And yet, you know, these evil medical establishments is allowing them to make these life-altering choices.
And in Europe and many countries, they're already stopping this mutilation nonsense, the surgical conversions of young girls mostly.
and they're outlawing it and changing it.
The CAS report in England, if anybody wants to look to that, has changed everything.
It just shows that this has all been based on all lies.
And it's amazing to me that America is so far behind, that we are still pushing while Europe is running from this.
Absolutely.
Because it is
absolutely evil.
And I just tell this to people, and this really helps get through to people.
I say, you can't even rent a car in America until you're 25.
You know, what does Hertz rent the car, Avis, and Enterprise know that the medical establishment and the liberal intelligentsia seem to be so ignorant about?
Right.
But they're full of this kind of crap.
But, you know,
it's racist to ask for somebody's identification somehow or another because I guess blacks can't figure that out.
But
I guess Bolivia is all racist then.
Yeah.
Because you have to show your ID to vote there.
Well, they also wanted a vaccine ID.
They wanted to make sure everybody had an ID of vaccination and everybody could figure that one out.
Thank God we did.
Thank God we did.
But they're not done.
I mean, the problem is, Glenn, is that I just think the first, it was the first,
it was just the first volley, the first sobo.
It was the first launch, and it was just the first quarter.
It was like the first ending of this potential tyranny.
And I think that the global elites
learned their lessons.
What didn't work?
They learned that they couldn't control the Glenn Becks, they couldn't control all the podcasts, and that they're going to regroup and figure it out and do better next time.
But we need to arm ourselves.
And I will say, and I say this to everybody, and this seems to get through to people,
even the on-the-fence liberals.
And I tell this to people, I say, there are no real conservatives anymore in America.
What we have is liberals that aren't crazy.
Liberals that aren't lost their minds.
We all want, you know, not judge people by the color of their skin.
We all all want people to express and be able to live their lives in freedom in this country.
And that is the traditional liberal values that have been manipulated again by bad faith actors.
And we need to move forward as a country.
But that means moving back into our traditional values.
And I tell this to people, and this gets through to people, we need the people on the fence.
We need the 100,000 voters in Arizona who didn't vote.
And these are Republican-registered people.
Don't vote.
We need to get people to go and do this.
And it's simply this: there will be no Marines that are going to land on the beaches to save America.
There will be no food drop in America
while this administration is still allowing China to buy
our
farmland.
There will be no Marshall Plan.
There will be no financial aid that will come to the United States while we're continuing to print and give another $800 million
to that criminal Zelensky in Ukraine.
There will be, we are our Marines.
We are our farmland.
We are, you know, that's why, you know, Kamala Harris would love to disarm us because that's all we got.
Okay, hang on.
Hang on just a second.
Rob Schneider, he's got a new book out.
It's called You Can Do It.
I want to talk a little bit more with him about the book here in 60 seconds.
I got to take a quick break.
Good sleep is one of the key ingredients to a successful day.
And if you're not getting good sleep pretty regularly, your whole day can end up making it feel like it's a never-ending schlog through thick mud.
What's worse is that a lot of times the stuff you take to help you sleep better makes you feel the same way the next morning.
You get up groggy.
It'd be nice to be able to take something, you know, just let you relax when your head hits the pillow at night, right?
Thankfully, there is something called Z-Factor, and it comes from the makers of Relief Factor.
It's 100% drug-free way to help you fall asleep faster, sleep better, and stay asleep longer.
Z-Factor uses a formula for all natural ingredients to calm your mind and relax your body.
So you sleep right through the night.
Works for me, works for my wife.
Try it, will you?
Rediscover the joy of a great night's sleep with Z Factor.

That's relief factor.com or call 1-800 for relief.
1-800, the number 4, relief.
10 seconds, station ID.
Okay, so let's talk about a couple of things, going bankrupt and getting America healthy, Rob.
Well, you know, the thing about what we need to do is we're allowing so many of our, not just our media, just academia has been captured by these illiberal people.
We also have allowed our
agra, food agra, the cigarette companies who went who were losing money in tobacco, they bought the big, big food process, foods companies.
And what we have to, I mean, we have, you see, 80% of Americans are over,
I should say, unhealthy.
And we have to get healthy.
If you want to be the best in the...
This is so frustrating.
We got to...
Okay, try again.
We're just losing you.
It's breaking up.
We have to get Americans healthy.
You got
8,000, 10,000 steps a day because we cannot afford for Americans to stay this unhealthy.
We can't.
I mean, we spend 17.5% of our GDP.
That's five times more than what we spend than what they spend in Europe for our health.
And we're not getting good results.
So we have to stop poisoning our food, poisoning our water.
And that's why it's important to, you know, that the Trump administration wants Robert Kennedy to come in.
Do you know how hard it is for Robert Kennedy, a Kennedy, to back a Republican?
Oh, I know.
And so God bless him for that.
Yeah.
And God bless his faith.
There are so many people that are taking a stand and losing all of their friends, their family,
because, I mean, Robert is an icon of the Democrats.
And for him to walk away from the Democratic Party and say, I may not be for everything this guy is for, but this other party is dangerous.
I have to get away from it.
That's remarkably brave.
And you know what that is?
That's a love of God, family, and country first over party.
And what happened is the Democratic Party has lost.
They have lost their minds.
They have lost their standing.
And all they care about is power.
I mean, nobody for,
you know, people voted for Bernie Sanders in the primary in 2016.
They came out undemocratically and just gave it to Hillary.
In 2020, they did the same thing.
They had all the other candidates drop out and just appoint that you got a Gotic voters had no choice, had to back Biden.
And in 2024, 14 million people voted for Biden.
Doesn't matter.
We're anointing Kamala.
So what does that tell you about how they feel about, really feel about democracy and what their plans are for us?
Do you think the people, they wanted, they let the people in Springfield, Ohio vote for 30,000 Haitians flowing into their city?
No.
They don't care about democracy.
They don't care about what you want.
They only care about keeping power and cementing a way to get forever power, which is what happened in California, which is what happened in the state of Washington and Oregon, and what's happened in Colorado.
It's a creep.
It is a tyrannical creep.
They don't care about you.
They don't care about your family.
They don't care about how much money you have.
They hate you.
They don't want you to have a choice of voting.
And I'm sorry to say that, but that is a result.
And that is, you have to see,
judge them by their deeds.
And these are their deeds.
Go ahead.
Yeah, the fruit of the tree is rotten there.
And a good tree can't bear, I mean, a bad tree can't bear good fruit.
And if you look at it, and you're so right on,
you know, they had the money for all of the things, the flying people into America from all overseas,
the hotels, the food and everything.
They passed that in a bill in 2021.
So this isn't something that they were shocked by.
This is something they planned without talking to any American about it.
No, and it's very telling that they'll give $700 to people who lose everything in Maui during a fire, real Americans, long, hardworking Americans, and yet they'll give like a credit card of $15,000 to an immigrant that they want to have as a forever blue voter.
So, I mean, what has to happen is they have to get kicked out for not one term, not two, but three.
You know, you need to have the two Reagan administrations and then one Bush so that you get a Democratic Party.
We're only allowed to have two parties.
We have to have two normal Democratic-leaning parties so that at least they resemble something that can
support freedom in this country.
And that's what I hope happens.
And I hope people will love their country more than they hate Donald Trump and vote them out, vote them Democrats out.

We wake up and there's a war.

So, for
people who think maybe bad guys don't ever pay for their crimes,
good guys never win,
you remember the IRS whistleblowers that blew the whistle on Hunter Biden's tax crimes?
These are the guys who said,
wait, there's something going on.
We were told not to look into it.
They slow walked it, et cetera, et cetera.
Well, they were smeared and really destroyed.
And one of the guys
is pretty amazing.
He's known throughout the world.
This is an IRS agent, known throughout the world for his work on global tax enforcement.
He was selected to create a new international organization called the Joint Chiefs of Global Tax Enforcement.
He's a supervisory special agent of the International Tax and Financial Crimes Group where he leads 12 elite special agents who are subject matter experts in complex international tax and other related financial crimes.
The guy has, I mean, he started his career as an AmeriCorps volunteer, then he went to work for the Defense Department and Intel, and then he joined the IRS and criminal investigations.
He's out to get the bad guys.
He joins us now.
Welcome, Gary Shapley.
How are you?
Very good.
Thanks for having me, Glenn.
I appreciate it.
Oh, yeah.
Thank you for your courage, for speaking out.
Thank you for doing the right thing.
I also want to bring in Tristan Levitt.
Tristan is a guy who worked with Chuck Grassley, trying to help all of the whistleblowers.
He helped expose Operation Fast and Furious and a lot of different things
and is really
strong on protecting the whistleblowers.
They are so important.
Tristan, welcome.
Thank you so much, Glenn.
So where do we start, Gary?
Because you are now suing Hunter Biden, and you're suing him for, what, $20 million?
Yeah, to be clear,
the alleged
defamation is against Abby Lowell, the attorney for Hunter Biden.
And, yeah, the amount is $10 million for me and also Joe Ziegler for a total of $20 million, yes.
So what do you claim they did?
So the complaint alleges that Mr.
Lowell defamed us and was part of an overall smear campaign to
attack both Joe Ziegler and I for coming forward, following the law, going to Congress and disclosing the preferential treatment that his client was receiving by the Department of Justice.
And
our disclosures weren't weren't, even though Hunter Biden was
the topic, our disclosures were against the malfeasance at Department of Justice,
FBI, and IRS.
So it's really interesting that it was this third party that came in and became the, you know, as alleged in our complaint, the main defamer and smearer of both Joe Ziegler and I.
So, Tristan, that is not uncommon, though, is it?
I mean, you're a whistleblower.
They attack whistleblowers now like there's no tomorrow.
Yeah, that's absolutely right.
I testified yesterday in front of the, or maybe I guess two days ago, in front of the the weaponization committee, and there were three of our FBI clients that have been there in the past, and one was with me again.
And it's very, very common for whistleblowers to be, you know, lied about and defamed.
And so that's part of why we really want to create consequences for that.
We started, you know, we are we are supporting, we are funding this lawsuit
that Gary and Joe are bringing against Abby Lowell, our organization of power oversight that I'm the president of.
And we want to, you know, if this is a way to hold people accountable, we want to do it in other cases because we just think that there's never any consequences for people just lying with impunity.
They just get away with it.
And so we want to fight back.
And that's not something that you see happen a lot.
And so that's why we're trying to raise money from the public.
You know, we have this
website, defendwhistleblowers.com, to build up this fund precisely for suits like this, where Gary and Joe were just trying to do the right thing.
And, you know, they went to Congress to do what was right.
But again, as so often happens, they were lied about.
But in their case, it can have real consequences for their careers.
I will tell you,
I saw one of the whistleblowers,
Marcus Allen with the FBI.
That guy seemed like he was dirt strong
in
standing up for the right thing, but he looks like he had been dragged through and just
punched repeatedly in the gut.
It was amazing to watch him.
These whistleblowers are really, truly the best of America.
Yeah, I sat right next to him as he gave that statement the other day as I testified there also.
And he has, unlike some of the other whistleblowers that testified with us a year and some change ago, he's not been on social media.
He's just been holding it in so that we could get his pay reinstated and get his security clearance back.
And now that he finally is through all of that, this was his real, you know, this was the first time people saw just what everything he's been through.
It's horrible.
So what are the odds of, I mean, what are you fighting against?
They're going to fight you with everything they have and lots of money.
Law firms do not want this one to win.
Yeah, that's absolutely right.
So
the real thing that, you know, Gary and Joe, Gary can share this, right?
But I mean, they're not suing for the money in any way, right?
I mean, yes, it's a $20 million defamation suit, but the point of this is that they, you know, that as alleged in the complaint, it's not right for someone like Abby Lowell, who's well known, well,
you know, identified as a really big name, a really big litigator.
He represented, you know, Jared Nivanka Trump even, but for him to go, if he goes on TV and says, these guys broke the law by sharing Hunter Biden's tax information with Congress, lots of people believe it.
And even Mitch Langberg, the defamation attorney who's representing
our defamation expert on our legal team,
who is one of the foremost experts in the country, without having a background, he said, my general impression was these guys had broken the law until he studied this case and read what we shared.
And he said, wow,
they haven't been treated fairly here.
And so
we want to educate the public and set this right so that people know these guys did did, you know, not only the right thing, but they did it in the right way.
So, Gary,
did you at all have conversations amongst yourself of,
should we do this?
You know, it's going to happen to us.
Did you have that conversation?
Well, I mean, overall, right,
people say, why'd you come forward?
And it really wasn't a choice for me.
Just my conscience wouldn't allow me to sit there
knowing what I knew and seeing what was going to happen in this case.
So, I mean, of course, we talked about the risks, but at the same time,
fortunately for the American people, unfortunately for me personally,
the risks were real and many of them are coming to fruition through retaliation by my employer, IRS, and the Department of Justice against me.
So I went in with my eyes wide open, and I have no regrets.
I feel like we've been vindicated by the,
I mean, you went from charges that weren't even going to be charged that even before the the generous plea deal fell apart where he was going to have to plead guilty of two misdemeanors, you know,
they were going to give him a deferred prosecution agreement.
And when we were coming forward, you know, DOJ and David Weiss knew that we were coming forward.
He said, oh, no, no, that's not going to work out.
So we're going to have to make him plead guilty.
Then, of course, the judge had the amicus brief from Congress where they included our testimony that they wrote it out and made public.
And that information made it pretty clear that
Hunter Biden was receiving that preferential treatment.
And once again, it's the Department of Justice and IRS here that is the one that engaged in the conduct in which we blew the whistle against.
So
I have no regrets.
And I hope the American people have confidence in the IRS and of government employees because of what Joe and I did.
Here's what I would like you to do.
If you have $5,
there is nothing better than
cleaning out this rat's nest of liars and thieves in our Justice Department, in really all throughout the government.
They have to be taught a lesson.
And unless we do it from the outside, the inside's never going to punish itself.
And I would urge you to go to empower E-M-P-O-W-R.us.
and if you can make a donation.
This thing's going to cost a lot of money
but we have to have the best lawyers on it.
We have to have the strongest case possible.
Otherwise, this continues over and over and over again and good people are destroyed.
So please go to empower
E-M-P-O-W-R, no E there, dot US, and
give if you can.
Thank you so much, guys.
I appreciate it.
Thank you.
Go ahead.
You bet.
Appreciate it.
You bet.
Bye-bye.
Let me just play this whistleblower.
So this guy is the guy that
Tristan was just talking about, that he sat next to.
I don't know if you saw this, but he's an FBI agent who is a whistleblower, life destroyed, hasn't said anything publicly until the other day.
And listen to what he said.
It's cut three.
I considered the hearing today my last act of service as a public servant for the United States of America.
And I'll give you my professional opinion.
I was an intel professional for our country for many years, and I would give recommendations, and I'd also look at indications and warnings.
So I would offer this to the American people as my warning to them.
Since this is a warning to the American people, I say, I personally have no confidence that the FBI will rein in its own conduct.
I have been persecuted along with Garrett, Steve and Kyle, and countless other whistleblowers.
It is my opinion that the Bureau used reprisal and fear to control the workforce.
It has been a seemingly effective tactic.
I personally believe that there are no current effective checks and balances against them conducting lawless action with any type of correction in a legitimate timeframe.
I welcome the work of the IG, but I think any type of lawless action, there is no legitimate timeframe to rein them back in.
Their ability to overclassify information can allow them to stonewall forever.
To the American people, you have a duty as a citizen to vote, and I strongly urge you to do so.
It's how you participate in the American experience.
I know people have doubts about election integrity, but you must vote.
It is your claim.
Stake your claim, and don't forfeit it willingly.
Have your voice heard.
My other recommendations are in the natural order.
First vote.
The second is the Second Amendment.
Arm yourself and know how to defend yourself.
Make three to four friends in your neighborhood and promise to come to each other's mutual aid in times of hardship.
And during the Great Depression, people stocked up a pantry.
So I think that's a good practice, especially in our economic times.
And make sure you have three to four months of food.
And as a person of faith, I'd say pray the Rosary.
Go to the First Friday devotions.
That's for everybody, all my brothers and sisters of all faiths, and I know I'm Catholic.
And read the gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and live it every day.
And that's all I have to say.
Thank you for the time.
Do you hear how his voice is shaking?
Yeah.
This is how do people dismiss that warning?
That is,
I mean, we are living in unprecedented times.
And
I tweeted that out the other day.
I should retweet it now.
These guys are so brave.
And you can tell
they're not playing politics.
Listen to that warning and share it with your friends.
Back in just a minute.
You know, when you feed your dog, you know, we just, we get a good dog food that we think is good, and we just feed it to our dog.
We don't always think about what that is.
You know, just see, I've seen the commercials for it.
It's pretty good.
I don't know.
The bag looked really good, said healthy.
So you just get it for your dog.
Well, if you're feeding your dog kibble food, all of the good stuff has been sterilized out.
So there's nothing alive in that food because if it was, it would, you know, it would go bad on the shelf.
And that kibble food has to sit on the shelf for up to two years.
Would you feed your child food that could sit on the shelf for up to two years every day while you're raising them from birth until, you know, 18?
Would you do that?
Why do we do that with our dogs?
They need the green stuff.
Rough greens, r-u-f-f-greens.com/slash beck.
They're going to give you the first bag free from rough greens.
All you pay for is shipping, but it has all of the probiotics and antioxidants and everything that you need in that bag,
in that bag that you sprinkle on the dog's food.

We'll be right back.
Stu, I want you to listen to this podcast.
It's a short podcast.
Let me just play a little bit of it and listen to it.
You want to turn it up?
Bummed out feeling.
And tell me what you.
He's talking about having a cold, but tell me what you think of this.
He sets the tone for his whole experience with Dylan, like it's an emotional roller coaster.
Yeah.
And he does not hold back on how Dylan makes him feel.
He uses this phrase, charismatic power to move me from dark to light, which, whoa, just reading it gave me chills.
Yeah, definitely.
So, what do you think about that?
That strong
reaction.
Talking about Bob Dylan.
What is it about certain artists that really gets to us on that deep level?
Listen to her.
Well, it's interesting, the way Heller uses such specific language, you know, almost like you can touch it.
Yeah.
It draws you right into how he felt.
He wants us to feel that deflation, that weight, because it makes the highs even more powerful.
Right.
And you're right.
He's totally captivated by Dylan.
Yeah.
This isn't just a concert film for him.
Okay.
What do you think?
Sounds like a review, an artsy review of a Bob Dylan movie or something.
Okay.
So Google went to a guy who wrote a paper on Bob Dylan.
Okay.
And it wasn't a review.
It was a deep paper on it.
And said,
you know, you should do a podcast on this.
Well, yeah, but that's hard.
Hang on just a second.
They took his paper, put it into the new Google AI.
Those are fake people
talking about
his essay that he did.
And it did it.
Oh, my God.
It created the entire thing in 10 minutes.
And it's a seven-minute podcast.
That's
unbelievable.
You know, think about how many papers will be written by AI.
And you're going to take AI writing and put it in to create AI podcasts.
There's going to be nothing real for like a month.
Correct.
I mean, already we know that there are fake newspapers.
They did this last time.
They're doing it again with George Soros Money.
There are fake news reports about Kamala Harris from,
you know, podcasts and local news stations that don't exist.
