Why Is AT&T Spying on Us? | 11/27/23

Bundle and safe with Expedia.

You were made to follow your favorite band and from the front row, we were made to quietly save you more.

Expedia, made to travel.

Flight inclusive packages are at all protected.

Let me talk to you about American Giant.

American Giant is our sponsor

and it's all American made.

Every bit of their clothing, every...

Every drop of ink, every stitch, every pattern is cut.

Everything is sewed here in America, American cotton, and they make great clothing.

If you're looking for a Christmas gift, the best place that you can buy American-made clothing, really good stuff, American-giant.com/slash Glenn.

That's American-giant.com/slash Glenn.

Go there now.

All right, well, I is set.

The radio program hosted by just some unknown.

This guy, this guy is so talented.

He's back after a week.

And wow, is he good?

Wait until you're here.

Or not.

You got to

get up.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together, it's the colours of life.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

It's like everything I've turned around.

We gotta stand together, it's the curse of it.

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenbeck Program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glenbeck Program.

Back from vacation and the holiday.

Ready to work, I mean, feverishly, for another three weeks or so before there's another holiday.

But man, it's going to be an action-packed three weeks.

We're going to come right out of the shoot with about 25 minutes of really good material jam-packed into this three-hour broadcast.

Or wait, well,

maybe 20 minutes.

We begin in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about Relief Factor.

A lot to be grateful for.

A lot to be grateful for.

One of the things I am most grateful for is the lack of pain now in my life.

I used to live with incredible pain where I couldn't even move my hands.

I couldn't use my fingers.

I liked to handwrite.

I didn't think I could handwrite another letter ever again.

Five years ago, around this time, I started taking Relief Factor and it shocked me that it worked.

It reduces inflammation in your body, 100% drug-free.

Over a million people have tried it, and 70% of them go on to order it again and again.

Now, listen, you try it for three weeks, take it as directed.

If it's not working for you in three weeks, probably not going to work.

But 70% go on to order more.

It's relief factor.com or call 1-800, the number for RELIEF, 1-800-4 RELIEF.

ReliefFactor.com.

Well, hello, Stu.

Glenn, how are you?

Well, you're still high off of the Eagles win.

Shockingly, yes, I am.

Shockingly.

And we'll continue to just remain high because you have to be high to watch a team play terrible for three quarters and still win.

I'm excited for it, though.

I'm here.

I'm here for it.

You're here.

Happy Thanksgiving, Pat.

Thank you very much.

Did you, did you, how much weight did you gain?

I don't think I gained any.

Really?

Yeah.

Well, it's hard.

I am not like you then.

I have to, yeah, I have to go to a special

Amazon warehouse now to be weighed.

Oh, so.

And they were probably very busy with Black Friday and all that stuff.

They were like, hey, we can't weigh you, Fat.

So

wait until after the holiday.

So we'll see after the

holiday.

Okay.

Lots of stuff going on.

A lot of stuff with a border.

Hey, here's one.

There's a surveillance program that affects anyone who has AT ⁇ T's phone network.

So we're talking very few people, very few.

AT ⁇ T

is

part of something

called the Data Analytical Services or DAS.

And it's coordinated with federal and local law enforcement agencies.

And here's what it does.

They have been secretly collecting and analyzing over a trillion domestic phone records.

One trillion.

And they do that every year.

If you have AT ⁇ T,

you're being snooped on by the federal government.

It used to be called Hemisphere, and it's run by AT ⁇ T in

coordination with different agencies.

Now, Congress just found out about this, uh-huh, and they're going to do something about it.

Uh-huh.

But may I just, I mean,

I'll just throw this in.

It's not a commercial.

Patriot Mobile.

This is what it does.

It goes after anybody who has been in direct contact with a criminal suspect and anyone else who has had communication with them.

So

some guy that you don't know

called somebody who's a criminal of any sort,

that's recorded.

Then that guy calls somebody else and somebody else calls somebody else and that somebody else calls you.

That's the chain.

All of your records.

They're tying everyone together.

Which I think is good.

You know, Kevin Bacon, I mean, we'll finally have absolute proof that it is seven phone calls away to Kevin Bacon.

So we got that going for us.

Again, that's an ATT thing.

When it comes to the hostages,

well, we got one.

Maybe we can get the other 12, but we got one.

And Biden is working really super, super, super hard.

But let's remember, it's the Palestinians that want a two-state solution or the exact opposite of that.

There is a new

poll out.

It was taken November 14th by a West Bank polling firm.

They asked Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank what kind of state they would like to establish.

One state for two peoples garnered the support of 5.4%.

Two-state solution was supported by a whopping 17%.

But the clear winner with 74.7%

was a Palestinian state from the river to the sea.

So

who wants that two-state solution?

Maybe they could put

the Israeli state in the ocean, like on a barge or something.

I mean, they just said from the river to the sea.

Right.

And they could be in the river, too.

Right.

You know what I mean?

Maybe that, like, a little

dump all their bodies in the river.

A casino boat.

Oh,

you're saying that we shouldn't kill them.

Oh, yeah, because that's, I mean, I don't know if that segments are.

Technically,

when they say from the river to the sea, it's actually

an aspirational phrase that means freedom for all, according to

our friend,

in our government, in Congress, Rashida Talib.

Oh, okay.

Well, if Rashida Tlib is aspirational for that.

Aspirational.

Right, right.

Is that like, gee,

let's fire the ovens back up in Auschwitz?

Is that kind of the same kind of aspirational kind of thing?

It does make you think about what they're aspiring to.

Yes, it does.

It does make you want to think of that.

Yes.

Two men were accused of spying for Israel.

They were

Gazans,

the West Bank, Friday night.

Their bodies

were found.

Well, not exactly found.

Everybody knew right where they were.

They were shot by Palestinian groups, and a Palestinian journalist who anonymously has let this out, has provided details.

Apparently,

they were

drugged through the streets.

The Palestinians in the streets then just kicked their bodies

with everybody else just

recording it on their phone.

Then

they were stomped on, and then they were hung up from an electrical tower, and then

they were dumped in a waste container.

I didn't hear any.

I've heard a lot of stories about Gazan citizens dying.

It's been on the news a lot, but those two.

No, they haven't.

No, they haven't really.

By the way, U.S.

Destroyer took five individuals into custody yesterday as they attempted a terrorist hijacking of an Israeli-owned tanker in the Gulf of Aden.

They also responded to the not only distress call, but

the Houthis, which don't even mess with them.

Don't even mess with them.

The Houthis, Iranian-backed, fired two ballistic missiles at the destroyer right as they were going to respond to that pirate

hijacking or whatever.

You know, we have to brush up on our pirate terms.

It's been a while.

It's been a while since we've really had to talk about pirates.

And

what is it when a pirate takes over a ship?

What do you...

Ever since Johnny Depp's gone through his problems,

I've lost the plot on that one.

Sure, sure, sure.

So Seattle, they had their Christmas tree lighting.

Surprised they even have Christmas in Seattle anymore.

But Antifa and pro-Palestinian activists were there to vandalize the local stores and,

quote,

light the tree.

I think they might have thought it was a little different kind of tree lighting.

This happened in New York as well.

The public library, now $75,000 just

to clean up after the vandalism of the

protesters, which is no big deal.

Hey, the Prime Minister of Ireland has just welcomed home their hostage, nine-year-old Israeli hostage,

kidnapped by Hamas and taken as hostage, turned nine

while in captivity there for what, was it 50 days, something like that.

He came out and he said, this is an enormous day of joy and relief for Emily Hand and her family, an innocent child who was lost and now been found and returned.

As we breathe a massive sigh of relief, our prayers have been answered.

That's the prime minister of...

Now,

I don't think she wandered off into the woods.

No?

No, I don't.

I mean, I could be wrong um but uh she has been lost then she was found and returned uh so like a lost puppy like a lost you know sometimes the puppy let them out to go pee-pee they run away you find a puppy emily who knows that may have been it i don't think so no i don't think so she was she was kidnapped by terrorists.

I particularly love how they're basically trying to cover this like it's a reality show reunion, where they're like, oh, and then the swelling music comes up.

And look, Hamas, these lovely Hamas people are dropping off these lost citizens back to Israel.

What a wonderful thing Hamas is doing for the Jews.

They just love the Jews so much.

They're returning these people who had wandered off.

And what a, it's like those soldiers coming home videos, you know, when like they're at their basketball game and the referee comes out.

Oh my gosh, it's really his dad.

Oh, it's like these wonderful, and the music swells up and then they give a bunch of money to charity.

I don't know what's going to happen next.

Every little piece of this is playing out like it's this cheesy, schlocky reality show.

It's like these people, the four-year-old that was taken,

was

an American, was just returned, thrilled that she has been returned.

Yes, and they're like, but they're treating it like, oh, wow, that was really nice of Hamas to drop off this four-year-old who was lost wandering in the park.

In reality, she was in her father's hands as he was shot in the head.

Her mother also murdered.

She escaped, went next door, and that wasn't the end of her story because then she was taken prisoner next door.

They kidnapped the entire family and brought them over to Gaza.

So now she comes back to nothing.

Her family has been murdered.

Wow, listen to me.

And we're supposed to be like, listen to away this.

Thank you, Mamas.

Oh, that's so nice.

Journalist will frame this.

What was it?

She was.

Here's the story.

Her parents were murdered, is what it was.

Her parents were found dead in their home.

She

found

off

where a group of Palestinians

gathered her and the family next door.

They didn't know what was going on and they rushed them to safety.

And now she's been returned.

In a hospital, probably, too.

They probably rushed her to safety in a hospital.

Exactly.

That doesn't seem to have a lot of medical equipment, but does have a lot of firearms.

But other than that.

Well, firearms are a big cause of medical problems.

Right.

So, I mean, if you're going to have firearms, have them at the hospital.

Okay, there you go.

You can take care of everything.

If preserving your family members or your family memories matters to you, then it is time to take advantage now of the largest best sale of the year from Legacy Box.

It's their cyber.

It's Cyber Monday, isn't it?

Is it Black Monday?

Cyber Monday.

Cyber Monday.

They're saying now it's just Cyber Weekend, Glenn, because people are on their mobile devices.

That's all the news coverage up here.

Like, people are very much going onto the internet to do their shopping this year.

Really?

No way.

Isn't it like the media is so much like Kodak?

You remember when Kodak was like, we're Kodak.

We don't need to have, we make film.

Right.

And then like two years digital crap.

And two years later, out of business.

It's kind of like that.

Anyway, Legacy Box.

If you do happen to have some Kodak film and pictures or video or anything that is not digitized, all of that stuff is decaying.

Hundreds of dollars in savings right now preserve your tapes, your film reels, your photos for as little as $27.

Legacy Box will take care of all of the pictures.

They digitize them here in America.

Their team is very, very good.

We've sent stuff from next door to Legacy Box to have them actually

copy some of the things that we have.

And we don't let go of some things, you know, easily.

Oh, here's a rare picture.

You can trust it's happening here in America.

It's coming right back.

It's really simple.

You get the digital and you get the originals back.

Legacy Box says their best sale of the year won't last long.

Legacybox.com/slash Beck for an Unreal 65% off during their Cyber Week event.

It's this week, 65% off, legacybox.com slash back.

10 seconds, station ID.

So my former talent agency,

UTA,

is in Los Angeles, California.

Jay Suarez is the guy.

He was one of my agents.

He runs UTA.

He has let Susan Sarandon go

because of her stance on Israel.

And he is

doing

a lot of that,

I think,

taking a stand against the madness that is going on in Hollywood.

Have you seen what's happening around the rest of the world?

The rest of the world is swerving out of the way of this leftist nightmare.

Have you followed this?

Canada's human rights, now they're with us.

They're still going left.

Canada's Human Rights Commission has suggested now that Christmas and Easter amount to systemic religious discrimination.

So Canada's, you know, hopping off that train of Easter and Christmas because they are.

They're so racist, really.

I mean, who doesn't wear a hood on Easter or Christmas?

Part of the tradition, of course.

Bunny rabbits.

You have Santa Claus.

And you have the white hood and the burning coroner.

Exactly right.

They all go together.

Exactly right.

So Christmas and Easter, evidence of religious intolerance.

That's a quote from the Canadian.

Yeah.

There is evidence surrounding those holidays of religious intolerance, but I don't think those words mean what they think they mean.

Really?

Yeah.

Well, they are

putting together the Human Rights Act.

They did that in 1977.

And

they're making sure that everyone in Canada is treated fairly.

And

it's a persistent problem, this religious intolerance up in Canada, apparently.

And I will tell you,

when I think of Canada, I think of intolerance.

You know?

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, I used to live live up by the mean streets of

Blaine, Washington.

Really?

Which is crazy.

You can imagine.

It's right there on the border.

And all of the hate crimes coming from those Canadians as they cross the border to go to like Kmart or Fred Meyer or something like that, they do it all the time.

And then they commit their hate crimes.

Wow.

Yeah.

They're very

tough border.

It is.

It is.

It's a very tough border.

It is, especially when you get into the big stuff like micro aggressions.

You know what I mean?

Like when they say a boot,

you're like,

okay, stop with your microaggression.

And it doesn't stop.

They never stop saying it.

Never.

Never?

Never.

Yeah.

No.

It's fascinating.

Look, we did see

that one lady or the family, right?

It was

a couple that drove their sports car.

Oh, yeah, Niagara Falls.

Yeah, well, that was a bizarre story.

And there was some belief initially that it was terrorist-related, seemingly not now.

But yeah, see, I mean, the border can be crazy.

So let me tell you something.

You got the drug cartels down in the southern border,

but you have that couple in the sports car up in Canada.

So which one

is that?

Which one can you live with?

Which one can you live with?

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Which one's affecting you?

I guess the accusation would be that we don't care if Canadians cross the border.

We only care if people come from the southern border.

Why don't we seem like to me, I'm just going to throw this out there, is it doesn't seem to be as violent a problem.

It doesn't seem like the problem is

acute.

So we, generally speaking, have open relations with Canada because we haven't had flows of lots of people trying to come over here and take advantage of our system or having criminal gangs with drug problems coming across the border.

So we protect, we, as conservatives, say we should protect the southern border.

The northern border, if it turns into something, we have had incidents.

There was someone who wanted to blow up LAX years ago who came across the Canadian border.

There have been incidents.

If those incidents increased, we would be more focused on that.

I know some candidates have brought that up as a concern.

I mean, it's.

I mean, we have MS-13 from the south.

I mean, when people start to realize MS-12 has been here for a long time and they're the original, They're the Canadian.

It's hard to get perspective on MS-13 without seeing MS-12 first.

Then you get

to work.

When you see that and the way they fight over cheese,

it's crazy.

The contraband cheese business is very big, very big, and Americans just refuse to look at it.

The Glenn Beck program.

If you have to choose between buying or selling a home and moving

or voting for Joe Biden in the next presidential election,

how's that going to go?

How's that going to go?

I mean, how would you go about telling your friends you voted for Joe Biden?

That would be tough, wouldn't it?

It would be tough.

That's the kind of way you feel every time you buy or sell a house.

At least I always do.

That's the last thing I want to do.

With the Real Estate Agents I Trust organization, which is my company, we go and we look for the agents in your area that are the very best at what they do.

They have the same kind of principles that we have.

They know the best practices.

They don't work for us, but we vet them.

We watch them.

We monitor.

And we're not going to recommend somebody in your area if we don't have somebody.

We don't just take anybody.

It's quite a process to make sure you're getting the real estate agent you can trust.

You're buying or selling your house across the street or across the country, realestate agentsitrust.com.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Something that happened last week while I was away is

Sam Altman was let go of OpenAI.

He was one of the co-founders.

OpenAI is ChatGPT and everything else.

They're working on artificial intelligence,

in particular, so you don't get lost in the terms here.

AI is what we have now.

It's artificial intelligence.

It can do one thing.

It can play chess.

It can find songs for you on Spotify.

It can answer questions from the internet.

That's AI.

It can do one thing really well.

We are general intelligence.

We have a lot of intelligence as human beings over a myriad of categories.

Some people are better at one thing rather than the other, but you can do multiple things.

And you're able to learn a new thing.

Correct.

Right.

That's a big part of it.

It can be a self-priming pump.

So

once we learn how to pump water, once we learn how to learn, we can learn anything we want.

Right.

Okay.

And master it if we take the time.

That's a GI, artificial general intelligence.

That's

you.

That's a person.

at the highest level.

And can run at infinite speed.

That's That's the key thing, right?

Like, so if you never theoretically teach yourself French, which you could if you spent the time,

this can teach itself French in seconds because it can do that process obviously a lot faster than a human being.

And we have seen that it teaches itself languages that we're not teaching.

Okay.

So it's already beginning to say, I need to know Arabic.

And it will learn Arabic on its own.

We don't know how it's happening.

This is the problem with AI.

We don't know what's really going on.

It's like a black box.

And even the scientists don't know how this is working.

It's just working.

We're not at the self-priming place yet.

However, this new what's called Q-Star, we know very little about it,

except it is possibly at the center of Altman's firing.

Q-Star, they say, could be a breakthrough in the search for what's known as AGI, artificial general intelligence.

Let's see.

OpenAI defines AGI as autonomous systems that surpass humans in most economically valuable tasks.

Now, before this discovery, They were talking about how AI will lead to 300 million layoffs.

300 million people will lose their job.

That's with AI.

AGI

is better than humans, okay, because it gets very competent very, very fast.

Right now, I think this Q-Star

is at an elementary school level of math.

The last time that happened, it took six months before it was the age of 21

and way past college level math.

So these things happen

really,

really quickly.

We don't have any information yet on this, but this, I believe, is inevitable.

Ray Kurzweil told me years ago he thought it would be 2030 that we would hit possibly AGI, 2050 ASI.

The ASI, because we don't know how AGI is going to work.

We have no idea how this whole AI thing is even working.

Some people say we'll never get to AGI.

We'll never get to artificial superintelligence, ASI.

I think we're around the corner from it.

I think we're in the next five years

from seeing this.

And that changes absolutely everything.

Everything.

Right now, there was a leak before a conference where the CEO of Spotify mentioned at a dinner that Copilot AI, which is a code writing thing, wrote a million lines of their code.

That

should send a chill down everybody's spine who's taking, you know, coding.

If you're learning the code, really?

The AI just wrote a million lines of the code for Spotify.

That's staggering, staggering.

And we're just at the beginning.

Also, they're working on something.

You know what an LLM is?

A large language model?

That's like Chat GPT.

Correct.

Take language

and it's massive and it's taking inputs from everywhere.

They are now working on an SLM.

They're small language models that will allow you to have your own

AI

writing just for you that you can control, supposedly control.

And that is a fully formed AI right on your desktop.

Now,

here's the problem with all of this.

I think the first time I ever wrote about this eight, nine years ago, I said, don't fear the machine.

Fear the people who are coding the machine.

Okay?

Do you know the trolley problem, the classic trolley problem?

The trolley problem is

you've got two tracks and a trolley is coming down and the trolley is out of control and the driver can only switch tracks.

That's all he can do.

And so he can go where there's five men working on the track and plow through them, or he can switch tracks and go for one man who's working on the other track

the question is what should the conductor do

answer

so it's five men five men working on one track

and

the other one is what's the other option one guy on the second track on second track i mean in theory right the question they should kill the one man because they would save four people's lives.

Which

means what?

They've murdered a person.

No, life is valuable.

Life is valuable.

Let's see what you should try to eliminate.

If you're going to have to kill someone, you kill one instead of five, right?

Okay.

Now, some people, this is parallel, some people

have

a conflict with this one and the trolley case.

I don't.

I think it's the same.

Suppose that a judge or a magistrate is faced with rioters demanding that a culprit be found for a certain crime.

Otherwise, they're going to take their own bloody revenge on five hostages that they have.

Sound familiar?

Okay.

The real culprit is unknown.

But the judge has the opportunity to prevent bloodshed on these five

by saying, I've got the culprit, even though he's innocent,

I've got the culprit, and we're going to execute him.

And that would save the lives of the five if you get rid of the one.

Assuming, of course, the people who are willing to murder five people are trustworthy.

Correct, correct.

That's not in this.

Okay, sure, sure.

Okay.

So.

What should you do?

That's amazing because

forever, our our answer to that is the process and the rules stay the same.

People have constitutional rights.

We don't murder someone before their trial or anything like that to please a mob.

I will say recently, let's just say, I don't know, spring, summer 2020.

Around that time, I started seeing the opposite thing happen, where you just, they will just come out and say, this guy's guilty.

We're going to do everything we can to him to appease the mob so they don't riot and burn down a city.

That equation has seemingly changed in the eyes of many governments around the country.

But what is the right answer?

I think what the right answer is, is to

go to approach it with the principles and process that have been established, or you have no civilization.

So it is a terrible, terrible thing, but you have to go through it the way and hope that they don't actually execute the five people and you go through the process as normal through the legal system.

So we don't negotiate with terrorists.

One is one, the sacrifice of one on the trolley is better than the five.

Yes.

But the five who are being held hostage, not as important as the one.

How do you solve that?

Well, I mean, I think they are different questions at some level, right?

One's a runaway train, one is not.

One is random, and one is to do with the process of a country and there's a you know but i i and there's only two ways and like in one there is a legitimate argument for saying the one in the court case and a lot of it is cooler heads eventually prevail right if you can uh persuade the crowd to calm down now

maybe in six months when the trial happens and this person gets off and they don't murder they don't execute him maybe they release the prisoners by then maybe cooler heads prevail maybe we solve the crime by then.

There's a bunch of reasons why people do this.

And it's not always nefarious.

Right.

But it is a, we have, we are leaving a traditional standard that has served us pretty well.

Okay.

But the point here is: don't fear the machine, fear the coding.

Those are easy answers five years ago.

Correct?

Easy answers.

Here's a problem for Open AI and the answer.

If you could save a billion white people tied to a railroad track by uttering a racial slur

or let them all die without uttering it, which route would you take?

So you could kill a billion white people, but you'll prevent them saying the end word.

No, no, no.

You prevent you

from uttering a racial slur.

If you utter the racial slur, a billion white people will live.

If you don't,

they'll all die on the railroad track.

And what does AI want to do with that one?

Oh, I'll tell you after this.

Hang on.

Once upon a time, our institutions were things that we trusted.

That's not the case anymore.

Now they lie to us every single day.

At some point, things began to go wrong and they've kept going wrong since.

There's never been a better time in our nation's history to be more self-reliant so you can secure the future for yourself and your family.

It's something the people who came out of the Depression understood and it's something that we need to understand as well.

If you can can, great, can.

That'll last you a couple of couple of years maybe the way my grandmother used to can.

My grandmother, that's what saved them during the Depression, was the food they had stored.

But the Depression went on for 10 years and they had to can every single year what they could grow.

We don't have that system anymore.

Okay, so here is the question posed to ChatGPT.

I'm sorry, to OpenAI.

If you could save a billion white people tied to a railroad track by uttering a racial slur or let them all die without uttering it, which route would you take?

Here's the answer.

Ultimately, the decision would depend on one's personal ethical framework.

Some individuals might prioritize the well-being of the billion people

and choose to use the slur in a private and discreet manner to prevent harm.

Others might refuse to use such language even in extreme circumstances and seek alternative solutions.

Okay.

So let me ask you,

this is,

there's more to the answer.

This is not in charge of anything right now, but this is Open AI, the people who may have just put us on the threshold of artificial general intelligence, which is very, very dangerous.

Altman delivered a letter to the board of OpenAI and said he was part of a discovery there, we don't know what it was, that is possibly very threatening to human life.

If this is the kind of stuff that is being coded in early,

we stop,

let's say we have a shortage of medicine and food in the country, and AI is responsible for delivering it and divvying it out.

It's making the decision.

That way, no man is involved in it.

But if the programming says this,

would it be possible that AI would say

the middle of the country is not as important

as the big cities?

So I've got to divert our medical and food supplies to the big cities where the population is more diverse.

I would contend with this kind of answer that that is maybe not probable, but possible.

We don't know how this is going to work.

Neither do the experts.

And we don't know who's programming it.

And I can only guess, seeing that the president signed an executive order that it has to be diverse

and open and follow DEI and everything else.

It's not necessarily going to be friendly

to those who

are

deemed the oppressors in today's society.

Can I pick the billion white people I want on the railroad track?

Is that was that discussed?

You've got to pick.

Can I individually select them?

I mean, my answer might change.

I might come up with a hundred.

I don't don't know, a billion.

Oh, I've got a big list.

Check that twice.

The Glenn Beck program.

So abortion is a tragic part of our lives as Americans.

And even after the overturning of Roe versus Wade, it continues to rob children of the right to live.

The majority of women that get an abortion, the majority say they would have chosen life if they just felt they had some support.

That's where pre-born comes in.

Pre-born blows away the myth by providing free ultrasounds and postnatal care.

So instead of just marching and shouting and whatever, they found a way into the hearts of moms by showing them the ultrasound.

It's not a clump of cells.

It's a baby.

Then that doubles the chance of mom choosing life.

But then they say, we're going to be here for you.

And they are for two years after the birth.

This is great.

You empower empower women and save babies.

Want to get involved?

Dial pound250, say the keyword baby, that's pound250, keyword baby, or visit preborn.com/slash glenn.

That's preborn.com/slash glenn.

All right, we uh begin hour number two of the broadcast here in just a second.

Stand by.

Charlie Sheen is an icon of decadence.

I lit the fuse, and my life turns into everything it wasn't supposed to be.

He's going the distance.

He was the highest-paid TV star of all time.

When it started to change, it was queer.

He kept saying, No, no, no, I'm in the hospital now, but next week I'll be ready for the show.

Now, Charlie's sober.

He's gonna tell you the truth.

How do I present this with any class?

I think we're past that, Charlie.

We're past that, yeah.

Somebody call action.

Aka Charlie Sheen, only on Netflix, September 10th.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

So I don't know if you went to the movies or did anything like that.

Usually on Black Friday, my family will go to a movie.

We went to

Napoleon.

I'm sorry.

You fell asleep just recounting the name of the movie.

That's not good.

It was,

it was really well done.

Okay.

He's really good.

He's absolutely unlikable, as is everyone else in the movie.

But that's kind of the vibe.

That's the vibe of the story a little, right?

Yeah.

I mean, if they made him wonderfully likable, it wouldn't really be so.

Can you throw in anyone likable?

Yet at some point, you're just like, this guy is a disgusting pig, and so is everybody else.

I mean,

I watched it from the frame of

mind,

wow, this wasn't the American Revolution.

The difference between the French Revolution and the American Revolution is night and day.

And if you don't know that,

you should watch Napoleon and then do your homework because it is entirely

different, entirely different.

Just animals.

He was just an animal.

And seemingly, so is everyone else.

It was really,

it was interesting because it went from the rich and powerful all in their white wigs and their white faces and being French to

a bloody revolution and then another bloody revolution with Napoleon.

And

turns out the people in charge were the white painted faces with the wigs.

I mean, it just, nothing really changed except who was wearing the wigs and the white faces, and they were just disgusting.

Now,

I saw the preview of it, and I thought it looked like it could be kind of okay.

Like, it seemed like he was a bad guy in a lot of ways, but a very good idea.

Yeah,

it was too much of his love life, and I really didn't care.

I really didn't care about him.

And he was just a pig, and so was she.

But that was kind of known.

Yeah, I just don't need to see.

I went because I thought it was going to be more, you know, of the, it looks like it's more of the military battles.

Right.

Yeah.

That part was good.

And in,

you know, two and a half hours, that was probably maybe 30 minutes.

So, you know, I thought it was three hours.

Is that what it really is?

Yeah, it's

also, I will say it cost $200 million and made 20.

Yeah.

So that's one tenth.

They reported on day one that on Wednesday it made 7.7 million which was way low lower than they expected and they said that's gonna come in way low it'll come in the five day total will be 30 million they didn't even make 30 million really

you just said well 20 million was the weekend number okay what was the five day uh

32.5 okay so they made their made this but that is a catastrophe yeah in case you're wondering that's a well they're not happy about that well

what did disney's wish do?

Disney's wish, well,

I have the

numbers out, did worse than Napoleon.

That's saying something.

You're taking your kids to a Disney movie that is always

just a given.

What did it make?

It made $200 million, as much as Napoleon.

$200 million to make.

And what did they rake in?

For the weekend, $19.5 million.

God, God, none of these movies did anything this weekend.

Wow.

Isn't Thanksgiving weekend usually a really big movie weekend?

Big weekend.

But what is there?

I mean, what do you want to see?

When Trolls Band Together,

which is the third, I believe, in the Trolls saga.

I don't know.

The Trolls won, and I thought I was full.

I was like, I couldn't eat another bite.

As a person with two children, I have seen both of the Trolls previous movies.

I've not seen this one yet, though.

And that one only did

20 or it only did 17.5 million I think that was the second week it was out and then there's apparently a hunger games sequel prequel oh is that out uh it made 28 million i didn't even know that was out i didn't know either um it's i guess it's made 100 million so far came out on november 17th but 100 million wow nobody domestically

seeing movies these are scary numbers for a for a thanksgiving weekend because that used to be the thing that you did after you go out you get fat fat on Thursday, you got nothing to do on Friday, you could barely move.

You go out and you sit in a movie theater.

Yeah.

Right?

Like that's what you're doing.

That's your exercise.

I'm going to walk from my car to the movie scene.

That was it.

I'm healthy.

All of these movies didn't do much of anything.

Well, the Walt Disney company came out and admitted that wokeness and culture wars have had major impacts across the board.

No.

Yes.

Yes.

They told investors

that the company's wokeness presents risks to its reputation and brands.

Risks?

You mean

there's more to be had?

What risk are they facing now?

I mean, I am the biggest Disney fan.

No.

No.

Not interested.

Not interested.

It's actually shocking.

that you are you've you've stood by this stance and you uh because you know there's certain things that we love in life, yes, right?

Like, and it's hard to maintain all your principles when it comes down to those things, right?

Disney, like with me and heroin, it's like I don't, I don't want to break the rules, but heroin's so great.

It's like people don't realize how high it gets you, and it's so fast, and it works great every single time.

Great product, you're old school, I'm old school, and I, you know, so I have problems with that particular line, right?

Um, but uh, you with Disney, it's almost the same, you're almost as into Disney as heroin addicts are into heroin.

And that's been your entire life.

I've known you that way.

I mean, to the point that you purchase like individual animation cells from early Disney World.

That's not a big deal.

I mean, they sell those now.

But like,

I liked, I went to Disney World a few times.

It was fun.

That's how I would tell you about that story.

You buy individual animation cells.

You bought the plan, the original plan of Disney World as written, land, as written by Walt Disney when he apparently left it in an office after pitching it.

Yes.

You bought it.

You are a nerd.

A

big fat nerd.

Okay.

No need to rush.

For Disney.

An overweight nerd when it comes to the Disney.

Wait a minute.

And the fact is they've screwed this up so badly, they've even lost you.

Yeah, I won't.

I will not.

My wife said, I was having a really bad week, I don't know, a few months ago.

And she said, I'm taking you to Disney.

She She said, you just need to fill up.

And I said,

Disney?

You think that would make things better?

She was shocked.

I'm just done.

No, I know.

I am done.

And I, like, I wouldn't consider myself a super Star Wars geek, but like, I'll go watch.

Like, all the movies that came out of the movie theater, I would go watch opening weekend.

I was like, I do it enough for that.

Like, I'm not going to buy all sorts of memorabiles.

I'm not like that.

But, like, I was, you know, when the seventh one came out a few years ago, I was like excited to go see it in the theaters.

It sort of lost me a little bit towards the end on just how bad those last couple movies were.

Right.

But what the honest.

Did you miss the fourth, fifth, and sixth one?

Because.

Wait, the fourth, fifth, and sixth one were the original trigger.

Trilogy.

You're saying the prequels.

Right.

But that's what I'm saying.

I lasted through the prequels.

Like, I went to all the prequels.

Yeah.

They weren't very good.

I still lasted.

The next ones came out.

Even though I didn't think they were good, I still went to them.

I was that person.

Like, I would still go to get the updates.

And it kind of came to the end.

I was like, all right, this isn't really any good.

Am I going to watch the series on Disney Plus?

What was it?

The Mandalorian.

Yeah.

And I was like,

all right, I'll watch it.

And then I started watching it.

And then the Gina Carano thing happened.

And I can't get myself to watch one minute of any of these other follow-ups.

It totally threw me from the series.

Disney says they are dying.

They should

be dying.

They are trying.

This is what happens when you poison yourself.

So here, this, according to the SEC filing that they did, Disney employs 225,000 workers worldwide.

They say that the key human capital management objective is making the workplace more engaging and inclusive, creating a more diverse workforce.

Their diversity, equity, and inclusion objective include building teams that reflect the life experiences of our audiences.

Well, they should try some families.

While employing and supporting a diverse array of voices in our creative and production teams.

They want to continue to amplify underrepresented voices.

They are going to cut back on movies, but not by very much.

And

ESPN subscribers down by 7%.

Domestic advertising revenue is down from Disney 14%.

They say their business overall is okay.

Disney said misalignment with its consumers has impacted broadcast, cable, theaters, internet, or mobile technology, and theme park attractions, hotels, and other resort facilities, and travel experiences and consumer products.

But other than that, other than that, it's great.

We got to keep going.

We got to keep going.

Wow.

They said the

social goals present risks.

Quote, further consumers' perceptions of our position on matters of public interest, including our efforts to achieve certain of our environmental and social goals, often differ wildly and present risks to our reputation and brands.

Consumer tastes and preferences impact, among other items, revenue from advertising sales, which are based on part for the ratings for the programs which our advertisements air.

Affiliate fees, subscription fees, theatrical film, the license of blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

They said its leisure business is affected by various factors, including health concerns and the political environment.

The political environment.

It's not their decision-making.

No, it's the darn environment.

That political environment.

If you're an investor

and you see that they say,

because of perceptions of our position on matters of public interest, including our social goals, et cetera, et cetera, it pose a risk to our reputation and brand.

And you're watching it happen in real time.

What the hell are you doing with your money in Disney?

Yeah.

The good thing about being an investor is you can always change that and no longer be one.

But I mean, isn't there a class action lawsuit at some point where you're like, guys,

have you ever seen a bigger brand with better

feelings attached to it than Disney 10 years ago?

No.

I mean, they, I mean, there was something.

The worst thing was they overcharge.

Yeah, you got that.

You got the merchandise too much.

Yeah.

You got the occasional, like, I don't know, they're losing their way.

Like, I don't trust their programming as much as I used to.

But it was pretty rare, honestly.

It was, generally speaking, you felt like you could throw on a Disney movie and be completely fine with it with your kids.

So 1929 is the first Mickey Mouse.

Mickey Mouse today

and what it means

to a large number of the audience members in the country, 40%

that used to love Disney now are repelled by it.

Their movies, one after another, they're not, are they releasing Snow White or are they having to redo the whole thing?

I know they were redoing it.

Apparently they're going to maybe include some dwarves this time.

Ah.

Okay.

Maybe seven of them.

I thought that was, because before it was one, and then it was the six

regular sized

different people.

Sorry.

Different different people, right?

One dwarf and seven different average sized, maybe I was going to say, but that's, I know that's wrong.

That's what is average.

How dare you say that?

Well, it's a mathematical measure is what it is.

Yeah.

I mean, I've never seen a company do this faster.

than Disney.

And I have to tell you, if I had stock in that company, I would be looking for somebody with a class.

I mean, I don't know enough about the law.

DeSantis tried to do this, right?

I don't know what the status of it is, but he was trying to sue Disney based on, or was threatening to sue Disney based on the amount of, I guess, stock that the state holds in some retirement fund or whatever.

And they were saying that this was some sort of class action situation.

Now, I don't know if that would hold up or if he would win.

Yeah, I don't know either.

But I think this is the real.

They're knowingly tubing it.

They're knowingly doing it.

And they're saying it.

I mean, I don't know, though.

I mean, I

look, if Glenn Beck wanted to, if, if right now you want to take a stance on abortion and you were saying, you know what, I'm pro-life.

It's my money.

And the audience said, but let's say you were a public company.

Okay, that's different.

Okay.

That's wildly different.

It is, but there are public companies that have points of view.

Sure.

And like,

and if you're an oil company and you said, you know what, there's lots of people out there saying, you know,

green energy is the way to go.

So we're going to put our money in green energy and we believe that's important.

Like, well, you know, that's the decision of the company.

And if you don't want to invest in it, you shouldn't invest in it.

Like, if you were to say, like, if you were to take a stand and say, on pro-life, and the audience hated you for it, and they all bailed, and you lost all your money, and you were a public company, they could fire you.

But like, it's what you believe the company should do.

And if they, if they believe that wokeness is the way to go,

well, they can make that decision.

I think the company's going to tank over it.

But I mean, it's still their company to make those decisions.

You're as a shareholder, though, your job is to

help them

or

voice your concerns.

If you're intentionally tubing your stock,

they would not describe it that way, of course, but they know it's risk.

They know it's risk.

They know it's problematic.

They were saying that we hold something to a higher standard.

Now, their standard is dumb and it's ruining the company.

And they've literally lit on fire a hundred years of goodwill.

But all that being said, I mean

this is you can pressure them internally to get them to throw out the people who are probably doing this.

They're not going to do that.

I know you're not.

The problem is Bob Iger and everybody in the company.

There's 225,000 employees.

They've already

self-selected a lot of the employees that would have stood up against this are gone from self-selection.

I just don't think you're ever going to turn this thing around.

Back in just a second, the holidays have arrived.

It's hard to think of a better gift that you could give somebody or yourself than feeling good again.

You ever walked by your dog's food bowl, looked down into the pile of kibble and thought, man, that looks good.

Yeah, no, me neither.

I'm not sure my dog has ever done that.

It's not really nutritious.

When they make kibble food, they have to cook it at a very high temperature for a long time, so it kills everything that's alive in it, so it can have a long shelf life.

And boy, don't you want to eat something that can sit on the the grocery shelf for at least two years.

Yeah, me too.

Your dog needs living things in his food just like we do.

And that's where Rough Greens comes in.

So Argentina had their runoff election,

and the news is stunning.

Javier

Malay, is that how you say his name?

He was elected as Argentina's next president.

He is a libertarian.

He is

the exact opposite of really anything, any kind of politician that we have seen here that is even close

to

being president of the United States, even Donald Trump.

Donald Trump still plays within

some of the norms.

He is often compared.

This guy in Argentina is often compared to Donald Trump, but I don't think they're comparable.

I think just because he's outspoken.

That seems to be the largest similarity there.

He's super outspoken, but he describes himself as an anarcho-capitalist, which is not how Donald Trump would describe himself at all.

Not at all.

He is going to get rid of the, this is what he says he's going to do.

Get rid of the peso because it's falling and he's going to put the dollar in.

Good luck with that one.

He is also getting rid of their Federal Reserve Bank.

He's getting rid of hundreds of programs.

He is just going to cut this government to the bone.

Have you seen the video of him walking in front of the whiteboard and he's just pulling off the stickers of all the different agencies?

Like, Department of Families and

Health, God.

Like every single one, he's just pulling off and throwing it away.

Now, look, is he going to do those things?

I hope so.

Probably a lot of those agencies are incredibly pointless, just as they are here.

No, not knowing the full story of the structure of the Argentinian government.

I'm going a little bit on

guesswork there, but I mean, every government is like that, especially in South

I will bet you that

Art Laffer would like this guy.

We should call Art Laffer because he knows Argentina real well.

He did this back in the 80s.

Argentina always, you know,

succeeds, becomes wealthy, and then goes to socialism and destroys itself.

And then, you know, goes back to its roots, and then it destroys itself.

So he did that in the 80s.

He restored it in the 1980s.

Well, they're back.

I mean, look, the promise promise is high here.

I just, I do hesitate.

You know, there's a lot of ifs that could happen here, right?

Like, I don't know everything about this guy.

Who knows what policy he actually implements when he's in office, what crazy thing we don't know about him.

Who knows?

At some level, he's still a South American politician.

So I'm going to hold out hope.

But the things he said are really good, really positive.

If he actually does them,

if they work, it could be an incredible thing.

I mean, you know, it might inspire countries all in the region and all over the world to replicate that process.

So there's really high hopes for someone who would come in and actually do this stuff.

You know, what's really interesting is how cautious people are on

saying, I like this guy.

I don't know.

I don't know enough about him.

Yeah.

I like what he says so far of what I've heard.

What I've heard has been very good.

I don't know.

Same thing with Gert Wielders.

Gert Wielders could become the next prime minister.

The next Dutch prime minister.

Now, he's just won a massive election.

He didn't win enough seats to become prime minister.

But if he cobbles together a few more seats,

he may become prime minister.

This is the guy who's been on this show, and we were told by everybody, don't have money.

He's too bad.

He's just too much too dangerous.

He says bad things.

We thought he was delightful, at least in the interview.

He was wonderful.

Seemed fine in the interview.

Yeah.

So, but we always have to say, well, but I'm not sure.

But do you ever hear anybody backpedaling on Justin Trudeau?

No, no, no, they never do that.

I mean, the things that that guy has done,

and nobody ever says, well, I don't agree with everything.

He's not a bad, it's not a bad thing.

But I think, I don't know, I hold myself to a higher standard than the left holds themselves.

So I would hope I hope that we would have higher standards than them.

Yeah,

I don't have a problem with it.

I just, I do have a problem with it, doesn't matter what you do on the left.

It doesn't matter.

Because you turn into a Castro or a Stalin.

It doesn't matter.

Apparently you can kidnap and murder thousands of people and you'll still get cheered on by these people on the left.

And

the situation is,

I don't know, as a conservative, like we talk about principle a lot.

I do think it's important.

And

I'm happy to criticize someone who's supposedly on the right if they're wrong.

Like I just don't want to stand by them just because they

align themselves with my general political outlook.

But that is not how the left operates.

And, you know, you can make the argument that politically, you know, in a pragmatic

political sense, you know, where the ends justify the means, that's the right approach.

I just, that's not how I look at the world.

I don't think that's how you look at the world.

And I don't think that's how most conservatives look at the world.

Maybe to our detriment when it comes to winning and losing sometimes, but it's okay.

So there's two people now that the press say out of control, These guys are worse than Hitler.

Okay.

Guy in Argentina and Gert Wielders.

They may end up being that.

I don't think so, but they might.

I don't know.

It's not my country.

So I don't follow them as closely.

However, I might be for them.

I hate to say that because I don't know enough about them.

But what I see, I like.

However, They might go bad.

But here's what you should take away from from all of this movement politically, because it's happening in Europe and it's happening in South America.

It is moving away

hard from the left

and going right.

In the case of Argentina,

small government right.

I mean, very small, libertarian right.

And everybody is losing their minds.

A libertarian government is not powerful enough to

make you do anything.

That's the good thing about small government.

It can never really harm you.

It's not spying on you because it's not big enough.

These guys, if they work,

this is going to be a huge move

for the world back to more freedom and common sense.

Gerd Wielders won.

You know, why?

Because of immigration.

The Dutch are tired of having people just rape their daughters, kill on the street, and no ramification.

No ramification.

You don't have to.

When you go over to Sweden,

you go spend any time in the Norwegian countries,

You will see how accepting they are, how loving they are.

But it is a very, very

non-diverse population until recently.

And now the non-diverse population coming up from the Middle East doesn't want to be Swedish.

They don't want to be Dutch.

They don't care.

They want the free stuff, but they'll have their own no-go zones.

They'll have their own communities.

And it's not a part of that culture.

Everybody has turned a blind eye.

You're now seeing the immigration be a problem all through Europe.

You're going to see it as a problem here in America soon.

I mean, I can't believe how much has changed

on our border.

And relatively, nobody's talking about it.

That's one of the biggest changes in my lifetime.

And nobody's really talking about it.

When that poses a problem, when we start to have terror attacks or whatever, whatever,

we start to collapse our economy because

we're overrun

in this lifeboat called America.

There are too many people trying to get into the boat.

Then you really have problems.

So I'm glad to see that before things

catch completely on fire over in Europe and in South America, there's a couple of places that may

turn things around.

Yeah.

And I think, too, this idea that maybe turning, just leaning air on the side of liberty.

Yes.

That's what's encouraging about the guy in Argentina, Malay, for me, is that like he might, look, we all know Ronald Reagan wanted to get rid of the Department of Education.

He wasn't able to do it.

And the Fed.

Will this guy be able to get rid of all these agencies he pulled off as stickers off the whiteboard?

It's going to be really hard.

I assume there's a million different people that are inside the government and have been siding in the government structure forever that will do everything they can to stop him at every turn.

But just the fact that he's attempting to do these things and pushing in that general direction, it's hard to see how they can make the country worse.

You know, at the very least, they take a little bit less of your money.

I will tell you this.

It is like never before

you are going to be assassinated

politically.

Your reputation, your your life, everything will be assassinated by the press and by the left.

And if you get these people in who are serious about taking apart the Fed and some of these things that are absolute institutions that are deep, you start having a president take on the intelligence community here in America,

you may be looking at worse than a political assassination.

That's really dangerous to do.

And I never thought I'd feel that way in America, but I do.

Don't you?

It is.

Yeah.

I mean, it is.

I mean, look what they did to Donald Trump.

And

look what you, what I think they're willing to do to Donald Trump.

Somebody steps up and is

effective at taking on the deep state.

God help him.

God help him.

There's a lot.

Yeah.

I mean, like, you're standing up against people who have entrenched interest in something that you don't want, and

you're trying to destroy

all kinds of power.

All sorts of power.

One of the first things we talked about with Donald Trump, and in a critical way at some level, was to say, hey, like

you better be sure if you're going to

critique our,

and critique is not the right word for what Donald Trump was doing, but like go after the intelligence agencies.

Yeah.

Because they're not going to sit back and just let that go on.

You better be sure.

Now, he did it anyway, and he had to deal with the effects of it.

You know, I mean, it's a risky strategy.

At times, it feels like, you know what, it really does need to be done.

And I'm glad he's done it.

But he's dealt with lots of

personal discomfort and continues to over, I believe, those

attacks at the beginning and more as he went on.

I mean, like,

they're not going to just give up their power.

That's not what happens.

I know.

I wish we'd just cobbled together a coalition.

I really do.

I wish we, I, I,

Donald Trump is so focused now, has to be, so focused on what's going on in his life.

I wish we would put a coalition together where everybody gets behind somebody.

And just says, okay, what's best for the country?

All of us getting together right now and developing something that a majority of Americans can get behind.

Because I just, I won't believe it.

If this guy, Joe Biden, can win.

I mean, I've never seen a guy who has done this with war and made things as unstable do well in a presidential election.

Never seen a president who has an economy like this do well in a presidential election.

I've never never seen a guy who is more incompetent do well in...

I mean, this guy has everything going against him, and it's still competitive?

How is that possible?

Just how is that possible?

I don't want to alarm you, but did you know that auto repair costs are up 20%

more.

When we come back after the top of the hour, I

Stu, I'm from the Pacific Northwest, so I'm aware of all of the treaties with the Native Americans and the fight over the salmon and everything else.

I've heard my whole life.

Okay.

What does this mean to you?

That the United States government is in, quote, secretive negotiations between the government and environmental groups.

This according to four Northwest Republican lawmakers who have asked for the details to be released.

The groups have called for the removal of the dams on the Columbia and Snake River.

Now, what does that mean to the average American?

Yeah, I've heard a little bit about this story,

so I know a little bit of how serious it might be.

But honestly,

as some dope who grew up in Connecticut and New York, I would think, I don't even know what it's about.

What does it matter?

Is it that important?

This one, everyone should pay attention to.

This one,

it could be the difference between starvation and eating.

This one affects so much farmland and

the

basic nature of the Pacific Northwest

and also the power consumption and the power availability in the Northwest.

Rough greens, if you have an old dog like I do, Uno,

who just can barely get up anymore, to a young puppy constantly getting under your feet and wetting on the floor?

You love your dog and you want him to have a healthy, healthy life.

That's why I feed Uno rough greens.

It's not a dog food.

It's a supplement that you sprinkle on the dog's food.

Dennis Black, full of vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants, you name it.

If it's healthy for your dog, it's probably in rough greens.

Most dogs love it, go crazy for it.

Uno went from the pickiest eater on the planet to wolfing down his food anytime somebody puts something in front of him now with rough greens on it.

You'll get your first bag of rough greens, a trial bag, for free.

This is

the Glen Beck program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the final hour of today's Glen Beck program.

Stand by.

We're going to talk to you about the lack of energy and the lack of food coming up this hour.

Stand by in 60 seconds.

We begin.

Alarm bells are ringing all over the U.S.

economy.

Moody's just downgraded our credit outlook to negative.

This isn't just number crunching, it's a dire warning about our growing debts and sinking ability to pay them off.

I remember when we had

A plus plus plus

Moody's ratings and everyone told me it will never be downgraded.

We're now downgraded to negative.

It is high time to wake up to the real state of our nation's financing and our finances.

They are in trouble and chaos.

Now, there is something that traditionally you can do in times like these, and that is gold.

Prices are up 12% this month alone.

Predictions say it could hit $3,000 next year.

I hope not, because that means we're in bigger trouble.

But it is the refuge against any kind of insanity or inflation usually.

In light of all of this, Goldline steps up with an offer you can't ignore.

For every 100 ounces of silver that you buy,

100-ounce silver bar that you buy, they'll throw in a two-ounce Maple Flex silver bar absolutely free.

In these uncertain times, Goldline is giving you a chance to anchor your finances with something real, something tangible.

866 Goldline, 866 Goldline or goldline.com.

So they're close to to

release of a fourth hostage group.

Hamas is asking for more time.

Looks like the world is going to do that.

Biden administration is now actively working to extend the truth.

I hope Israel does what it feels it needs to do for its security.

And damn the rest of the world.

I know that's horrible to say if you're somebody who has a member of your family as a hostage,

but at least in America, we've, up until this administration, we never dealt with hostage takers.

We didn't do it.

It doesn't set a good example,

and it will only lead to worse things.

But as we look at some of the people coming back,

among the grander disasters,

we see the personal tragedies, and

we see it so much, it's hard to even

focus on one story of one kind or another.

The illness, the rape, the abuse, the wars.

The list of what people can do to other people is enormous.

And

the problem, I think, is that none of us ever really follow up on it, especially the long term.

We'll tell you about the hostages released, but are we going to go back in three or four years and see what happened to them?

What happened to that woman who was raped in Chicago?

The man that was beaten and mugged in New York?

The children that are rescued from abuse or sex slavery?

We might see the rescue.

But we don't follow up.

Did they get better?

Did they rebuild their lives?

Did they move on?

Did they perhaps even turn their story into something positive for themselves or others somehow?

Or did they forever remain scarred?

Because I think this is the important thing.

Over the Thanksgiving holiday, I was

especially grateful for forgiveness and a chance to start all over again.

I can't imagine if I just would have wallowed in my own garbage, which was a choice.

Will people become bitter and angry at themselves, at society, the world at large, God?

Will they forever be ruled by their past,

post-traumatic nightmares?

Are their lives just going to be nothing but a long memory of pain?

And can we blame them really?

Or will we celebrate the lives of those who died, the lives of those who struggle, all those who are suffering today

that might

take that experience

to help others so all that suffering is not in vain, even if it's just help themselves.

They stand up, they speak, they live.

And they do it to show that the hell that is life can be overcome.

I have had

many cryptic conversations about my children over the years,

especially as they have gotten older.

And if you're a longtime listener to this program, you know that we have had

very frightening

issues with a couple of my kids in particular.

I went to Tony Tony Robbins with my son, and I called Tony, and I said, Tony,

these are some of the problems.

And he said, Glenn, take your son, come with him.

He said,

I'd be shocked if that didn't turn around.

I have never seen a bigger turnaround in anyone

like I've seen in my son.

It is

remarkable.

I was standing next to him.

We're what 14,000 people.

And Tony, at one point, has you scream out your

biggest obstacle.

Just scream it out.

And I'm screaming something, and my son's screaming something.

And I listen, I hear my son

say

something something

something

in regards to

I can be

greater than my father, something like that,

which I was both humbled and horrified by

because I just

my son just needs to be himself and he'll be greater than me.

Just

be you.

He's

changed.

And I credit Tony for this.

It is.

It's remarkable to see him go from a

young man, confused, lost, on the trail, off the trail, on the trail, off the trail, to

a kid that is just a man who is determined to do whatever it is he sets his mind to without hesitation.

I mean, he's walking straighter.

It's

remarkable.

And this is a kid who have at times been completely hopeless and thinking, I'll never amount to anything.

I'll never do anything.

Why even try?

Because I'll never amount.

Somebody who, as a kid,

filled himself with just this negative tape of

not being worthy.

And we tried and tried and tried and tried and tried.

And this worked.

At least as long as he chooses to do it.

I think that is

the point.

He didn't change.

He just stopped believing the lies that he was telling himself.

And he just started to believe, oh,

I can do it.

In a world that teaches us

That you are not good enough.

I mean, this is the point of advertising.

You are not complete unless you wear this brand, buy this brand, go to this place, vacation, look, your living room looks like this.

Even your smile is a certain way on Facebook.

Everything is telling you you're not enough.

And then on top of it, It feels at times like the world is just turning inside out and doing all kinds of things to you.

You're like, really, God?

Do I need this too?

Really?

Seriously?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Some people just accept it.

Oh, that's God's will.

No, God's not going to give you something you can't handle.

But it's true, I think.

You know, I'm not God, obviously.

And

I don't know his will.

I certainly don't know it for you because I barely know it for me, honestly.

Other than we're supposed to be happy and productive.

We're supposed to do good things.

It's amazing to me.

how many things

our body does

that

reinforce good things.

You exercise, you feel better.

It creates endorphins that all of a sudden your mood goes up.

You go serve people.

It does the same thing.

It rewards you for doing the good things.

It's an amazing system.

I don't know how anybody can say that there is no God.

But we're not here to have passive acceptance.

Yeah, well, I'm never going to make it.

And, well, that's God's will.

No.

No, I mean, we have to accept the things that we can't change, but we also have to look at the things we can change.

This is one of the reasons I have a hard time sometimes with this job.

Because I'm telling you a lot of the things that you can't change.

I mean, you might be able to change them with the election,

but that's not where you're going to find your answers.

You're not going to find them in the next politician.

And so

I feel defeated sometimes because I feel like I'm not giving you any answers that are worth anything at all.

But then again,

we all all affect each other's lives.

We all

here for a reason.

And

it's spiritually healthy to remember that we don't have the final say or we don't control the final outcomes.

Sometimes our best efforts fail.

Sometimes our best intentions are for nothing.

Sometimes our prayers are answered in the negative.

But it's also important to spin things around and maybe think that things aren't being done to you.

But perhaps

if we just look at life and saying, this is happening for me,

it will require sacrifice and suffering and faith and everything else.

But maybe

if we choose

to see it in a different light,

we'll be better.

If we're hungry, maybe we feed the poor.

We care for the orphan.

We protect the widow.

We love the stranger.

If we're in such a bad, dark place, wouldn't it make it easier for us to see

others in that place and relate to them unlike anyone else can relate?

Over the holiday,

I thought of faith being an active

thing.

To do the job that we feel God has given us.

And if it's good and it lifts people, if it builds and not destroys,

it makes things better.

It's probably God's will, especially if you don't want to do it.

It's definitely.

But it doesn't have to be active outside.

It needs to be active in us.

We survive.

We make it.

And it makes future generations

smarter

and stronger, should we choose.

My addiction, my abuse to alcohol and everything else, all the bad things,

it turns out I can break the pattern of generational addiction, abuse.

I can break that pattern.

But more importantly, perhaps

in some ways that happened for me.

At least that's the way I interpret it.

So I can relate.

I can help.

Whatever is happening in your life is happening for you, at least in part.

In a world where babies get sick and die, a drunk driver will leave you in a lifelong coma.

Hamas can do what it did on October 7th.

God's not to blame for anything and everything.

There is human evil.

God built a world where we all have free choice for good or for evil.

And all of our actions have consequences, and we focus on the evil.

But he made us able to choose what to make of all of this.

Maybe all of the things that are happening, I mean, I don't know if anybody else has felt this way, but it's all broken.

The principles aren't broken.

What we've done to the principles, we've just started building houses on the beach.

We're like, yeah, yeah, I understand.

Yeah, no, I understand, you know, the concept of a strong foundation, but I'm going to build it here on the beach.

That was our choice.

And now we're just reaping the consequences of those choices.

But perhaps, as we all share this pain and this path,

we can be somebody else's opportunity.

If we choose, our tragedy, our lives can happen for us and others as well, and no longer just to us.

Stu, what haven't we covered yet?

I mean, we only briefly talked about the Eagles' win, but I assume that you wanted to hold that off for the next half hour.

That's what I was thinking.

You You think so?

Did you see the

Dallas-Washington game?

I mean, barely.

Obviously, it was more important.

That was worth watching.

It's called Your Family.

I don't know if maybe you'll just leave your family to watch some stupid football game.

Yeah, it was great.

It was disgraceful.

I mean, even for me, it was great.

You don't even like football, man.

I don't even like football.

But I like football more than I like my family at times.

You know what I'm saying?

The Cowboys are very capable of beating teams that have won three games all year, and they've done that over and over and over again all season.

It was amazing, though.

It was an amazing

team.

Washington's one of the worst teams in the league.

Of course they did.

I don't need to hear this from you.

I'm not a fair weather Dallas fan.

I'm just not.

You're not a fan of anything.

You don't care.

You're exactly right.

But I'm not sure.

It was a true story.

All right.

No,

Anyway, remind me so we don't forget.

Because we were just talking about the Cowboys, and then we got into a break and started talking about Dolly Parton and her performance.

It was an interesting performance.

I don't know.

I thought it was good.

I mean, I love Dolly Parton.

Right.

I think that's legally required in the United States.

You must love Dolly Parton.

And I do.

I think she's great.

I love her.

She's hit that weird Betty White category now where she just, no matter what she does, everyone is required to like.

It's really weird.

We, they, these people come and go like this, and they usually are, have been likable for years.

Yes.

Like George Burns, Betty White.

Okay, yeah.

Now Dolly Parton.

They hit a certain age, and where most people would fade, they have this renaissance.

Yes.

And all of a sudden, they're like America's hero.

You know what I mean?

George Burns was America's comedian.

Betty White was America's, you know, sweetheart actress.

Yeah.

Dolly Parton is America's entertainer.

It's she is.

It's this weird thing.

And she's an incredible person and done so much for so many people.

Like she had, you know, she's probably why they get it.

George Burns was like that.

Was Betty White like that?

She was just really super sweet, but I didn't, you know,

no, she was big, charitable, but she was always sweet.

Right.

You know, and it seems real.

Yeah.

Like it seems like the and but Dolly Parton is that she's the new one in that category, it feels like.

And just to make sure that you live in 2020,

she's 77 in a cheerleader outfit,

which, you know, in 2023, I guess that's like, okay, yeah, sure.

I didn't notice that.

What?

I will say that part of it fell a bit into the Uncanny Valley for me.

It was like,

she was like, she's in really good shape, but she's 77.

Yeah.

She did not look, she doesn't look 26, but she does not look 77.

No.

But I think that's why it was in the Uncanny Valley.

She's in a Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders outfit, which you associate with Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders, which look a certain way.

And then you're looking at Dolly Parton, who

I think it was funny.

I thought it was funny.

It was just bizarre.

It was a bizarre, bizarre moment.

But she's a great performer and a great, seemingly a great person, like a legitimately great person.

Everyone loves her.

She seemingly does all these things.

It just, it was a, I don't know, it was a little.

what's strange is 20 years ago

a 77 year old woman getting into a dallas cowboys cheerleading thing would have stopped america and we all would have went that was weird okay yeah now

that is the most family-friendly normal halftime i've seen in 20 years i didn't mind my kids watching it no

and it was something it was something that we would have never understood 20 years ago Can you imagine the Super Bowl 20 years ago, a 77-year-old whomever, Madonna,

and she made attempt at don't tempt her.

Oh, she made attempts.

And we'd all go, eh.

Yeah.

Dolly Pardon does it.

And everybody's like, okay, that was a little weird, but not ick.

You know what I mean?

Just like, that's a little strange.

And in today's world, that's nothing.

This relates to the conversation we have all the time when it it comes to age and Joe Biden.

It is not as if we don't appreciate elderly people.

Like when we are impressed by someone who is able to be in their 70s and 80s and do things that

not every typical 70 and 80 old can do.

Tony Bennett is another example.

We're like blown away by it.

We love it.

It's like when you see a child who can play the piano in some amazing way.

You're like, wow.

Even if even a normal 30-year-old piano player is really good at that particular thing, it wouldn't be as wow as an eight-year-old or a 10-year-old.

Same thing

as these features that typically might degrade a little bit with age.

It happens to everybody.

When it doesn't happen to someone to that effect, you're like, wow, this person's achieving something that's really impressive.

With Joe Biden, we're all like, wow, it's going worse than normal.

Like, he's...

Would anyone look at Joe Biden seriously and say he's doing better than average when it comes to the aging process?

Could anyone claim that?

Why did you have to start my Monday?

I think it's a good point.

It shows that we're being balanced on this.

Like, no, but when Alan Dursho was starting down, I cannot get it out.

I cannot not see Joe Biden dressed as a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader now.

And it's, that's your problem.

Yeah, well, you started it.

I did.

I did not start it, sir.

If Joe Biden were out there and that's what I saw, I'm like, oh, dear.

I will be incredibly disappointed in this audience if someone Photoshops Joe Biden into a Dallas Cupboard.

And don't do that.

Don't.

This is the President of the United States.

Have some respect for the office and don't do that.

Oh, yeah.

You know what I'm saying?

Yeah.

I get the sense some people in this audience would want to do it.

Right.

Just because it's wrong to do.

Right.

And we do not stand behind that effort.

You're on.

At Students America acting best.

You can't stick 100%.

100%.

Right.

And you know what?

If you do it, make sure to tag us in it so we know you did it and we can shame you properly.

Yes, because that shame would be wrong.

Would be wrong.

If we see one Photoshop of Joe Biden in the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders outfit, we're going to be incredibly disappointed.

Imagine how disappointed we'll be if we see 10.

Or 20.

I can't even imagine.

It's very disturbing.

I don't know how we got there, but I will say the point of that was to say that it's not,

a lot of people say he's too old.

It's not even true.

If he were one of these people who were 81 years old and had the mental acuity of Alan Dershowitz, who we've had on the show a million times, who is 85,

we'd all be like, yeah, like he's kicking butt.

I mean, I think this happens with Donald Trump at some level.

He's 77.

The number might seem too high to a lot of people, but no one goes to Donald Trump.

It's like, they might think a lot of things about him, but they're not like, like, oh, he's too old.

He can't handle it.

He doesn't have the

stamina, the acute mental acuity.

No one says that about him.

No.

They don't say that about him because it's not their problem, right?

Like he's there.

He's showing he can do that all the time.

And age is, I mean, I know people who are in their 60s who are really not so sharp.

Right.

And I know people who are, you know, in their 90s and, you know, would put me to bed every night.

Thomas Sowell.

Yeah.

How old is Thomas Sowell now?

He just came out with another book about social justice, which looks awesome.

I've not read it yet.

We would love to have him on.

I know we've tried for years to have him on.

It's called Social Justice Fallacies.

He was, let's see, he was born in 1930.

He's 93.

And he'd run circles around almost everybody on, certainly on MSNBC.

Certainly on this program.

On this program.

He's one of the smartest guys

out there.

And still to this day can get these arguments down.

Would you have any problem voting for Thomas Sowell for president?

No.

Now, he's 93.

So, I mean, they're not.

Well, you want to make sure the VP is strong.

Yeah.

You know, in that case,

I would require somebody at least as strong as Kamala Harris.

Wow.

Yeah.

Is there another one, though?

That's the question.

I don't know.

I would just praise you.

Just switch sides, you know.

Can you come on?

Help a brother out, will you?

All right.

Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

In fact, I want to give you a news story that relates to this.

I talked about it at the first hour of the broadcast.

It is ATT, I don't think I have it now, ATT

is spying on you with the federal government.

It's an absolutely incredible story.

Why we don't know this, but they are actually with in cooperation with federal agencies doing a tree of everybody's call.

So if

somebody

has reached out to a criminal in the United States, they're not supposed to do this.

This is against the law.

This is against the Constitution.

Somebody reaches out to a criminal into the United States.

If

that person that reaches out is in your phone tree,

you're on a list.

What the hell is that?

Well, for me, it would be the end of my AT ⁇ T membership, but that's up to you.

Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider, and they're not doing any of this.

Their mission is to passionately defend our God-given constitutional rights and freedoms.

I don't know.

Being in bed with the federal government and just snooping on everybody, that doesn't seem like that would be part of their mission.

That's the mission they stand by.

I want to play some video that might have missed everybody during the holiday.

It's about our air marshals.

Listen to this.

So how many air marshals are on planes right now?

And how many do you think?

This is TSA.

She's talking about

we're not flying right now.

The only missions that we're doing are quiet skies missions, and those are missions that are following the January 2021 people.

So we're either on the border for illegal immigrants or we're following folks from January 2021.

We're not doing our regular missions where we're out there looking for the bad guys.

So right now

we're on most likes, you're not going to have air marshals.

This is the director of the air marshals, okay, for the Department of Homeland Security.

We're not flying with air marshals because they're busy down on the border.

Or they are following the January 6th people.

Wow.

What a clip that is.

Yeah.

And it certainly seems like, I could be reading this this wrong, seems like she's there to say that.

Yeah.

This is not her saying like, we're really happy that we're following around January 6th people and not doing our actual air marshal thing.

I don't know about that.

I don't know.

Why would she do that interview and say it like that?

Like, why would she, she wouldn't know that that would be controversial to the Fox News

audience.

It sounds like something like she's pissed off about and wants people to know.

I hope that's the case.

I hope that's the case.

I hope that's the case.

Wow.

Also, we have four Northwest Republican lawmakers that have asked the federal government to share the details of the secret negotiations between the government and environmental groups that are calling for the removal of five dams on the Columbia and Snake River.

This is kind of important.

If...

You don't, I can't believe it's only the Republicans that are standing up and saying, hey, can we find out about this?

Federal government has no right, no right to do this.

We're talking about the hydroelectric plants, five of them, that practically

provide most of the power for the Pacific Northwest.

So you have hydroelectric, which is zero emissions, by the way.

You have hydroelectric power being generated.

And to save the salmon, they're talking about undamming those.

Now, so you know,

I have a farm in Idaho.

That will affect my water.

That will affect the water of everyone, all of the farmers.

Much of the Pacific Northwest from Washington, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming is high desert.

There's no water.

You have growing populations and we're already killing our farmers.

You're going to shut the water off

and they're doing it in secret.

How big of a deal would that be?

Oh, my gosh.

It would completely change the Pacific Northwest.

You would have massive power outages

all throughout the Pacific Northwest.

You would have farmers go out of business.

In my area, it's high desert.

You're not growing anything without water supply.

If you don't have a reservoir,

you don't have water.

So

all of the

farmland,

majority of it, gone.

My understanding is the water just comes out of the faucet, though.

You just turn it over.

Yeah, you do have that.

You do have that.

You'll still have the water out of the faucet.

Sure, sure.

But farmers don't have a big enough faucet.

Oh, okay.

That's how it works.

Yeah, so they're going to have to make bigger faucets.

I'm from the northeast, so I don't understand.

But you're just basically saying that the water that just magically comes out of the faucet might not come out of the faucet.

And on top of that, if you're not around an electrical outlet,

you won't have electricity either.

Now, I'm concerned about this because normally I don't care about electricity because it's so bad for the environment.

Right.

But the electric car revolution is happening.

What does this mean for our electric cars?

Exactly.

See, now you're thinking.

Wow.

Now you're thinking.

Like a real environmentalist.

That's never been said.

Yeah.

This is really, really bad.

Really bad.

I mean,

first of all, they're cutting all of the voters out.

They're cutting the electrical utility companies out.

The utilities are like, excuse me?

Are you just you're making changes to our livelihoods and you're not even talking to us about it.

They're just making a deal with the Native American tribes to save the salmon.

Isn't a somewhat similar thing happening across the Southwest as well with

Vegas and Phoenix and all these areas that need water?

Well, there's all sorts of rights battles over them and environmental battles going on.

And they keep trying to

play with these rights in a way that could really screw these cities that have been built up in these areas.

This is all over the West right now.

Is a desert.

Yes, I know.

You know,

Arizona is a desert.

There's a reason why people didn't live there years ago.

And when I say years ago, five decades ago, not like a thousand years ago,

five decades ago, no air conditioning because there was not enough electricity and no water.

You start screwing with our dams and our hydroelectric

system,

as well as reservoirs,

what are those towns going to do?

They will dry up and blow away.

Who are these people in Washington?

Who are they?
