This is

the Glenbeck Program.

Hello, America, from Des Moines, Iowa.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

Stu and I are out of the studio and we're in Des Moines.

We're at their big convention center where we are covering the Family Leadership Summit.

Today,

Tim Scott, Asa Hutchinson, Mike Pence, we have Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Ron DeSantis

all here today.

We're covering it, and we also have the one and only Tucker Carlson, who I'm going to be doing an interview with tonight live at 6.30 p.m.

Eastern, I believe, on Blaze Media and Blaze TV.

We We begin from Iowa in 60 seconds.

Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

It's Good Ranchers.

You know, a lot of what China does is bullcrap, right?

American beef, so-called American beef, Chinese bullcrap, that's what it is.

Even if it has a little sticker on it that says product of USA, it's not.

It's not.

It is a game that our government is playing on us.

They are shipping in beef.

If it is cut here, then it's a product of USA.

But it doesn't mean it was grown here.

85% of the grass-fed beef is imported from overseas.

Are you kidding me?

That's not American.

Well,

I don't know about you, but I'm very, very excited.

Yesterday, we had the president

call up our select reserve and ready reserve to head on over to Europe for Operation Atlantic Resolve, which is very exciting.

Sounds to me like we're going to war.

And maybe that's just me, but I have a feeling we'll be hearing about that from the stage today and all of the Republican candidates.

Stu is here.

With me back at the studio is Pat and Jeffy.

I mean, we're down to that.

We're down to that.

Very exciting.

Wow.

That hurt.

Hey, Pat.

All right.

That really hurt.

Well, it wasn't you, Pat.

I'm not talking about you.

Again, that hurt.

So there's a couple of things that are in the news today that I think are a little disturbing.

Is anybody bothered by Operation Atlantic Resolve?

Now, this is something,

when did we go into this operation?

Let's see, April 30th, 2014,

you had some of the beginnings.

This goes back.

This is the Ukraine situation going back a ways.

It's funded under the European Deterrence Initiative, which I know you're a huge fan of.

You have that bumper sticker on your car.

Oh, my God.

I'm a huge fan of the European Deterrence

Initiative.

I mean, we like to call it the EDI.

But yeah, big fan of that.

Big fan of that.

So this is revolving around Ukraine.

It's another step closer to war.

We not only have that, but did you see the news that,

and Pat, you're going to be excited because I know you are very excited whenever America is number one.

Yes.

But

we are now number one on our

debt interest payments.

Yeah.

Yes.

Yay.

Good job too.

Yeah.

Now we're at $900 billion a year.

That's up quite a bit.

In fact, that is up

10% in the last 12 months.

No, I'm sorry.

Our revenue is down 10%.

Our interest rate is up As of the end of June, we're now paying 2.7%.

However, they believe that by the end of the year, our interest rate could be at 4%.

And that, in the next three months, they say we will be at $1.3 trillion

a year, which will surpass, at a trillion dollars, you surpass

all other budgets in the United States government.

You are bigger than Social Security, just the interest on our debt.

So we got that going.

Yes, we got that going.

$1.2 million.

$3 trillion.

No, that's not as much as he's lowered the deficit.

Right.

That's

$1.7.

Good point.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So we, I mean, think of the money we're saving, Jeffy.

Thank you for bringing that up.

I apologize for saying that you're a waste of skin on this program because you're clearly.

Why are we?

And a lot of skin.

I mean, we could have made 14 people out of you,

but the Lord decided to make just one, Jeff.

I already said it hurt.

By the way,

the spending on interest.

So

we're scheduled in 2027 to surpass, let's see, defense spending with just our interest.

Not a problem.

In 2029, non-defense discretionary spending will be exceeded by interest.

It goes to 2045 when interest passes the entire cost of Medicare.

And then in 2050, it exceeds Social Security.

No, no.

Now, this is, of course, without all the new crappy programs you're going to add in the interim.

No, Stu.

This is just projection for right now.

This is projected by what?

The CBO?

$1.3 trillion.

How big is Social Security?

Because the article I read today

said that

by the end of the year or in 18 months, we will be bigger than Social Security.

The debt will be bigger than Social Security.

The interest will be bigger.

Incredible.

Yeah.

Our spending is up 15% since June of last year.

And that's the realistic thing, right?

Like they keep adding these programs and adding all the spending.

No, the Fed is also raising rates.

Every time the Fed raises rates.

Remember, we're looking at a blended interest rate, they say, in the next three months.

That means that we have some debt that hasn't been refinanced yet.

So we were paying a blended interest rate of about 1.8%.

We're now at 2.7%,

and they say we'll be at 4%,

but that's still blended.

When we get into the 6 and 7%, which will happen in the next 18 months, your debt skyrockets.

Yeah, and here's the stat on this, which is if right now they are projecting it's going to be 3.3% all this borrowing

and then 4% over the next 30 years.

If they are wrong, each additional 1% costs Washington $3 trillion per decade and $30 trillion over 30 years.

So, I don't know.

Is that good?

Can we ask any of the candidates?

Is that good?

We'll ask some of the candidates.

Yeah, we'll ask some of the candidates.

You know,

I was looking at some of the research today.

We did some surveys on Glembeck.com, and

we wanted to know what people, what the most important

question is

for each presidential candidate to answer.

And the number one

question by far,

what will you do to fight against massive government spending?

That's 63% of our audience says spending number one.

26,

are you for or against the aid to Ukraine?

If so, in what form?

And then 11, will you hold China accountable for the COVID pandemic?

Each one of these specifically show,

we're not really for Biden.

Yeah, we're kind of going the opposite direction.

Anyone but Biden?

Yeah.

All the candidates here qualify for that, by the way.

Each one of them is not Joe Biden, and I think that's a really important qualification for almost anyone running for president at this time.

Other questions?

Do you think the U.S.

is at risk at entering into a wider war with Russia?

Pat,

you and I have been doing this for decades now.

Do you remember, what are they calling this thing, a call-up of the

selective reserve and ready reserve?

Do you remember that?

I remember that in the lead up to,

didn't they do that in the Gulf War?

Both of those?

I think they started doing call-ups around that time.

But in a time where we weren't at war with anybody, I don't remember it.

Here's what's truly frightening.

I don't know if you guys have seen the,

what do you call it?

The presidential dictate here from

the White House.

But this is how it's worded.

By the authority vested in me as president, by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, including sections 121, 1, 2, 3, 0, 4 of Title 10, United States Code.

The president doesn't care.

What he's saying is, I have, this is like, before it's like, I can, you know, I can just spend money.

I can just resolve to let everybody go, you know, on their debt.

This one, he's specifically saying, don't screw with me.

I hereby determine that it is necessary to augment the active armed forces of the United States for the effective conduct of Operation Atlantic Resolve in and around the United States European Command's area of responsibility.

In furtherance of this operation, under stated authority, I hereby authorize the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Homeland Security with respect to the Coast Guard when it's not operating as a service in the Navy under their respective jurisdictions to order the active duty any units, any individual members not assigned to a unit organized to serve as a unit of the selected reserve or any member of the individual ready reserve mobilization category and designated as essential under regulations, blah, blah, blah, not to exceed 3,000 members at any one time,

of whom not more than 450 may be members of the Individual Ready Reserve as they deem necessary.

So he has the right to do this for,

I think he can call them up for 350 or 365 days,

and then that that expires.

Why is he doing that?

You'll have to hear the candidates talk about it.

Again, we are

covering, this is not our summit, we are covering this summit.

This happens every four years.

It's the Family Leadership Summit.

And they have invited all of the

candidates.

Only one really has turned them down, and that, of course, is Donald Trump, which I'm really disappointed because that leaves a huge void here

and not having Donald Trump here.

True, I mean of course Trump is the leader by quite a significant margin and gets the majority of

the press anyway.

Maybe this gives these candidates an opportunity to be answering questions, you know, not about what Donald Trump has done or said.

Like this is an opportunity to talk to these guys about what their actual plan is, what they want to do themselves.

I mean, I think it's a pretty interesting opportunity.

I have to tell you, ASA, Pence,

and Haley

have

an upstream battle today

because they are all very

seemingly much more hawkish

on the things in Europe.

DeSantis hasn't really even addressed it.

I don't think

in any meaningful way, but he's going to have to today.

Well, and Tucker is probably the leading voice on the right when it comes to skepticism of the war and our support of it.

So, you know, if you are coming in here and you're Nikki Haley or you're Mike Bence, you don't, I mean, Tucker Carlson's going to ask you tough questions on this.

And if you can't handle talking to Tucker Carlson, you shouldn't be president of the United States.

You should be able to have conversations with another conservative, certainly, and talk about, you know, what you believe about this stuff.

But you're right.

It's not going to be the easiest route.

Yeah,

National Review actually wrote an article that these people shouldn't even talk to Tucker Carlson because he's not really a Republican.

No, I think he's actually the kind of Republican that Republicans would like.

You know, somebody who's not big spending, big war,

you know, big

NSA, CIA kind of stuff.

And that's what this process is supposed to be about, right?

Figuring out who the voters actually want to be president.

What kind of Republican do they want to be the nominator?

And it's weird because the Republicans, we're the only party, the Republicans, I shouldn't say we because I'm not a Republican, but I generally vote for Republicans.

This is the only party that actually is supposed to let the people decide.

The Democrats changed that in 1980 and they started going with superdelegates and everything else.

They changed that because they saw how Ronald Reagan won and came as a dark horse.

And the party did not want Ronald Reagan.

The leadership didn't want Ronald Reagan.

But the people moved towards Ronald Reagan and that became president.

And that's why you have superdelegates.

The Democrats said, yeah, we like this whole democracy thing unless the people don't agree with us.

To an extent.

Yeah.

You know.

It's like freedom of speech.

As long as you agree.

Exactly.

Yeah, sure.

And by the way, we should note, at least the Republicans haven't completely abandoned Iowa like the Democrats have.

They have, you know, they've gotten rid of the start of the, you know, with the Democratic caucus.

They're now going to, I think, South Carolina first.

Yeah, because

literally, they said, because.

Too too many white people here.

Now, again, I was under the impression we should not be making decisions based on skin color.

That's a difference that I have for the Democratic Party now.

Apparently, they are making those decisions.

It's amazing that they admit it, but both New Hampshire and Iowa are apparently too white for them to be first.

And so now we're going to switch that up, I guess, to South Carolina.

So this is it.

I mean, like, the Republicans are the only one who seem to care about Iowa anymore.

So it's nice to see that there's a good crowd of candidates.

Well, the good thing is, the Democratic Party has been racist since, what, 1803,

and they're still racist today.

And it's good to see some consistency.

Yes, right back to their roots.

All right.

Live from the summit in Des Moines, Iowa, back with our coverage in just a minute.

On 9-11, 2,977 people lost their lives on what turned out to be one of America's darkest days.

A generation later, you'd hardly know it happened at all.

At least if you tried to find out about it in school.

The Tunnel to Towers 9-11 Institute aims to change that by educating kids from kindergarten age all the way up through 12th grade about what happened that day.

Their non-fiction first-person accounts are available both as videos and in the Discovering Heroes book series.

These are deeply moving, amazing accounts, and your kids will never forget them.

The Institute is offering full curriculum units with scripted social studies lessons, activities, and

backgrounds for teachers, plus a speakers bureau for classrooms with access to 9-11 first responders, survivors, and loved ones.

And don't forget the mobile exhibit, a tractor trailer that's an interactive museum of 9-11 artifacts, plus scholarships for exceptional students preparing.

who have begun prepping

those who have begun prepping for for college.

So to never forget, we must educate our future generations.

Let's help our nation honor its vow.

Donate $11 a month to tunnel to towers at t2t.org.

That's the letter T, the number two

T.

t2t.org.

The number two

t dot org.

Let's pause 10 seconds.

Station identification.

22334.

Yeah, you're right.

Yeah, yeah.

Welcome to the program.

We're glad that you're here.

We're live in Iowa, and we're going to be broadcasting soon.

Stu and I are going to be just checking in with the show, but we are going to be broadcasting on Blaze Media.

Also, you can find The Summit

on our YouTube page, so you can watch that if you're not a Blaze TV subscriber.

But that leaves out one very important thing that is exclusive only for Blaze TV

subscribers.

Yeah, it's kind of a big deal.

I mean, this is obviously a lot of candidates here today.

There's a lot going on with the election, but this is also the first public appearance of Tucker Carlson since he left Fox, which is kind of a big deal.

I don't know if he's going to be talking about that at all, but if you've missed Tucker's voice, this is certainly a great place to get it because he's going to be...

doing an interview with each one of these candidates today on Blaze TV.

Something really cool to take advantage of.

If you go to Blazemediasummit.com, you can check that out.

If you use the code Summit, you can save $30 on your subscription.

Because the subscription part is,

in addition to all the candidates and Tucker's questions with them, all the coverage we're going to be doing today.

Glenn, you're going to be interviewing Tucker Carlson after.

And really, did you put any limitations on this interview?

No?

No.

Ask him anything.

I haven't.

No, we texted back and forth

and I said, you know,

anything you don't want to touch.

And he said, no, everything's open.

Now, I'm going to ask him about Ray Epps.

Don't worry.

Because that's what I thought he would say.

Ray Epps is

threatening a lawsuit.

But

this is going to be exclusively only on Blaze TV.

So you'll only be able to get...

You can get the summit

everywhere, but you'll only have it for subscribers for the interview with Tucker Carlson.

And you don't want to miss it.

It will be live at 6.30 Eastern.

This is probably the first live interview he's done.

I know he did one with Russell Brand just a few days ago, but

this will be the first time we go one-on-one.

And I have spent a few days preparing for this.

I'm really excited to get his point of view on a few things and bigger picture.

You know, I'm not interested in a lot of the details, and I also

know what Rupert Murdoch didn't like about me,

and it was about God.

And I'm going to talk to him because I think we have a lot in common on that.

Was that one of the real reasons of the downturn?

Was his turn to God in talking about faith?

That'll be on Blaze TV tonight at 6:30 p.m.

Eastern.

Pat and Jeffy,

join us in just a minute.

Pat and Jeffy in the studio in the DFW Metroplex.

Glenn and Stu are in Iowa at the Family Summit.

And soon, this thing will really kick into gear.

And

it's a different format, right?

This is not a debate.

It's a forum.

It's more like a town hall sort of setting, right?

With all the candidates.

It's more of just an interview one-on-one, and they're coming on stage one at a time.

We begin with Tim Scott here in just a few minutes.

At 9 o'clock, this thing officially kicks off.

They're just starting to 9 o'clock Iowa time.

And people are filing in now.

It's a rather large crowd, about a couple thousand people by 9.

A little noisy, too, but you're going to pipe down a little bit.

Yeah, I was going to ask, can you tell the band to shut up?

Pipe down.

No.

But Tucker's going to be joining here.

We're going to have Steve Dace with us in a few minutes.

And then Tucker Carlson will come on stage.

He's going to address the crowd and then introduce Tim Scott.

So we have that.

And I think, Stu and Pat, I don't know if you guys can feel it all the way in the Dallas Metroplex, but

the place is electric with the idea that Asa Hutchinson is going to be.

Oh, I can imagine that.

I don't think it's Dodge.

I don't think that has all all to do with Asa.

That might have to do with Mike Pence as well.

Yeah, right.

Both.

I think.

Electric.

I'm really anxious.

I am anxious to hear the difference from a lot of these.

I think Nikki Haley

is

because she's probably the most hawkish.

And with what's happening today, it's going to be interesting to hear whether Stanza.

Do you know that

37% of our attack subs are now in dry dock because they're not working.

Oh, my gosh.

I had nothing to do with that.

Just the 37%?

But just 37%.

Just the 37%.

So we're ready.

We're ready.

We don't want to give it to the Titanic people to build them.

Please.

Oh, no.

Please.

They're working on a new Diet Coke can design.

Oh, really?

It's pure aluminum.

Pure aluminum.

But very, very thin.

So it can go almost 18.

It'll be fine.

It'll be fine.

Well, you want to be able to lift them when they're out of the water, right?

You want to be able to carry them back

to wherever you house it.

And the nice thing is, we can buy subs in a six-pack and keep that on the bottlenose dolphins as well so we can kill some dolphins at the same time.

You can use them if you just use them.

They get directed with the television remote, so you're good.

Perfect.

Dolphin, really?

The television remote.

I didn't know that.

Yeah, yeah, it worked for those subs too.

What do you guys think is the most important thing to hear from any of these candidates today?

I think their thoughts on Ukraine, on the war.

Are you for us being this enmeshed in this war, or would you be in favor of getting us the hell out of this mess and stop spending, you know, what is it, $200 plus billion dollars and stop committing troops?

I mean, this 3,000

troop addition here to the European force is very frightening because this is just exactly how it started in Vietnam.

I mean, immigration is

big to me, but I mean, I really want to talk about Ukraine.

We need to find a way out of Ukraine.

I mean, soon.

Think of what is going on.

Think of what's going on right now.

Ukraine.

We all believe that this is the lead up to World War III.

We have that going on, Possibly.

We have debt that is completely out of control, leading to the destruction of America in a rather quick fashion.

What we've all known was coming since the 70s is now finally here.

We have corruption at all levels of our government.

Immigration out of control.

And did you see yesterday, we talked about it briefly, but the Secret Service said they didn't get any fingerprints.

They didn't get any video.

They have no witnesses of anything, so they're just closing the cocaine investigation down.

That's incredible.

They're not even giving us the fake answer of, look, we haven't found anything yet, but

we're going to keep our eyes peeled.

Right.

They're not even lying to us to tell us they're going to keep looking.

They told us they sent it to the FBI's lab because that was the best in the world, and they weren't affiliated with the investigation.

So we wanted the FBI on it and would you know it, they couldn't find anything.

Gosh darn it.

Well apparently

in order to find out who did it, you'd need something like a camera.

And we know that there's

an idiot though.

Z

is this that newfangled thing that Kodak

is okay.

Well that film company, I mean it's been making film for a long time, but this newfangled camera that they've come up with.

Too complex.

You know, our government doesn't have the money to be able to buy one of those things.

Not at the White House.

I mean, even if we did, all you'd do is see the people coming in and out.

You wouldn't be able to tell who they were, what time they came in.

Right.

Who dropped the city?

There's a building in which they know.

They know every single person who is in it at all times.

No, let's really put this on.

This is the most secure building.

In the world,

okay?

Supposed to be the most secure building in the world.

Now, it's a not a huge building, but it's a fairly large building.

So they've compartmentalized it.

The executive wing is more secure than the entire West wing, the entire White House.

So you've compartmentalized that.

And then...

Inside of the West Wing, you have the situation room area.

Even more secure.

So it's like you're walking in a vault.

Right, right.

And they'd have no idea.

You don't know.

You can't figure out.

No way to tell.

It's like the metric system.

There's no way to tell.

We can't.

We just don't know.

We just don't know.

That's amazing.

Well, that is kind of true.

I got to tell you,

I grew up around Canada.

And you'd cross the border and it would say, I don't know, 85 or 45 KPH.

And I'm like, no way to tell.

I don't know what that is.

Is that faster or slower than I was going?

There's no way to find out.

There's no way to know.

And I don't buy the fact that they can't come up with fingerprints.

I don't buy the fact that they can't figure out who this is.

But at the very least, any person who is inside this building within four or five days before they found this bag should be subject to an hour-long interrogation.

Every single person should at least be pressed by somebody in an interview.

And it doesn't seem like they're even doing doing that.

They know who it is.

And let me tell you something else.

That's the truth.

What is the magazine of special forces?

Let me see if I can look this up.

Hustler.

That's a really special forces.

No, the official magazine.

I'm a fan of those special forces, I'll tell you that.

No, it's Soldier of Fortune magazine.

They came out a couple of days ago, and they said

that the White House has found fingerprints on the bag of cocaine.

Yesterday, let me just read this to you.

This is by Susan Katz-Keating.

Less than 24 hours after Soldier of Fortune reported that investigators found fingerprints on a packet of cocaine that was abandoned inside the White House, the U.S.

Secret Service announced that it will close down the investigation for lack of leads.

The announcement directly contradicts what my trusted sources told me and continue to say.

The timing of the July 13th announcement from the Secret Service is curious.

The agency could have said last week that neither fingerprints nor DNA evidence were found on the cocaine packet.

Instead, they waited to reveal that information until after the Soldier of Fortune wrote the evidence exists.

I stand by our report.

I'll restate the findings.

Officials at the White House know who handled the packet of cocaine that was found inside the executive mansion and have confirmed that finding via fingerprint evidence, according to the sources with all direct knowledge of the investigation, we know who handled it.

We've known since last week.

The security source told me.

Anyone who wants to report direct knowledge of the cocaine incident can send a message through the whistleblower

portal through the House Oversight Committee.

That's pretty incredible.

It sure is.

It's fascinating.

And it, you know, at the beginning of this, the first thing everybody thought was, well, it's hunters.

But then I thought, okay, it probably isn't.

You You know, that's just too good.

That's just too easy.

But the way they're comporting themselves now, it leads me to believe maybe it is.

Maybe they know it's him and that's why they've squashed this.

I have another theory.

Okay.

Have you ever noticed how Joe Biden is sleepy, Joe?

And then he'll give a speech and he's all

he might have been doing a couple of rails.

Yep.

I'm just saying.

Everyone, like one out of every eight or nine speeches, he all of a sudden has energy.

Right.

I don't know how else to explain that.

He's done a couple of lines of Coke.

He's covering it with

the American credit card.

He's just, I mean, would you notice if we were buying the president Coke in

the budget?

No.

No.

No.

And they said originally it was right, it was cocaine, hydrochloride, or whatever.

So it was pharmaceutical grade.

It could be.

Really?

I love how Jeffy knows these details.

Nobody else knows that.

What?

What did you say?

Wait a minute.

He's got purity numbers.

He's real fucking rattling off.

And there's only two guys I know that sell that kind of stuff.

It's John in the West Coast.

It had to be Mike, who is the East Coast distributor.

What?

What did you say?

What did they find about this cocaine?

It was a specific cocaine hydrochloride,

hydrochloride, I think that's what it was, that is the pharmaceutical grade.

I mean, that's what they originally reported.

I mean, could they have lied?

I don't know.

What pharmacy sells cocaine?

Oh, they all do.

Do they?

No, no, no.

Cocaine is sold.

They use it in the top nosebleed.

They mix it for.

Okay.

All right.

Yeah,

I know somebody who had their jaw broken.

This is in high school.

And he had like an aerosol cocaine.

Wow.

And, you know, this was in the day.

We didn't know really what cocaine was or anything else.

And I remember him spraying it.

Because if he had a nosebleed, it had to stop immediately.

So you...

I thought cocaine made your nosebleed.

From the spray cam.

Okay.

You know, from the spray cam.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Isn't that right, Jeffy?

Isn't that what they use it for?

Yeah, they use it for

some kid that just had hairspray.

It was dyke.

Yeah.

That's what it is.

All right.

That's what it is.

So recently, several million sets of driver's licenses were hacked online through a popular file transfer service.

That means that people's names, addresses, social security numbers, birth dates, driver's license numbers, and lots more just became available to the highest bidder.

Now, isn't that a comforting thought?

Your security from people who want to rob you is important, and it's even more important online where everything you have could be on the line at any time.

Don't wait for somebody to steal your personal information and identity to start protecting yourself from it.

It's important to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting our lives.

And it's equally important to realize that there are measures you can take to help keep it from happening.

It's Pat and Jeffy back in the studios in the DFW Metroplex, high above the city in the Mercury Studios complex.

Looking down on the Metroplex.

We're actually on the ground floor, so we're not that high above it, but we do have a beautiful, beautiful view of the building right across the plaza.

We do.

It's blocked a little bit by the stairwell, but that's it though.

Yeah, but other than that, it's gorgeous.

Anyway, you know, this weird Ray Epps thing continues.

Ray Epps is suing Fox.

I haven't heard the figure.

He's suing.

No, I've not seen a figure, but I mean, everyone is just assuming that it's going to be.

I mean, it's got to be at least 12 million, right?

That's what they settled with the Tucker Carlson

producer.

Yeah, that's unbelievable.

That's the producer who said, they put up in pictures of Nancy Pelosi in a swam suit and it wasn't flattering.

Oh, that one guy

made the joke, too.

Somebody made a joke about where the women breastfeed.

You can't have that.

You can't work in a place like that.

No, you can't.

And so here's $12.5 million for you.

And they said, we're just happy to resolve the situation.

We're just happy to resolve it on real.

So I'm sure there will be a lot of results.

I'll bet you Ray Epps is going for $100 million or $500 million or something, and they'll settle for $50.

They'll give him $50 million to go away because he has now been criminally charged.

Wow.

They say.

After two and a half years, Epps' attorneys are saying, yeah, they charged him, and it's because Fox put so much pressure on him.

Really?

Okay.

All right.

Well, is that how we're charging people now?

I guess.

I guess Fox News can determine that.

I don't think so.

I mean, if he's getting 50 million, we don't know, but I mean,

I'm sure it'll be tens of millions.

Yes.

My name is Jeff Epps.

Really?

Yeah, my dad, Ray.

You're behind him.

Am I behind him 100%?

Younger than you?

I don't know how it works.

I'm just saying he's my dad.

The way you treated him was terrible.

This will be interesting.

So many things happen every day that literally are unbelievable.

Yeah.

Literally every day, too.

That happens every day.

We're supposed to believe him.

I know.

And so Tucker Carlson is right in the middle of all of this.

He's, I guess, the one that Epps is focused on for having talked about him the most.

Right.

So Glenn talked a little bit about the fact that he's going to ask Tucker about this

during the show tonight.

The show's at 6:30, right, Central?

6:30 Iowa time?

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

Stand up, stand, and hold the light.

It's a new day, our time to rise.

What you're about to hear

is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

President Braindead Biden has been making us proud all over the world.

That's what he does.

That's what he does.

Great.

We'll share some of his greatness with you in just one minute.

Plus more, too.

You know, when you're trying to do something that's complicated and difficult and maybe even a little scary, it's nice to have a partner.

Someone who will not only be there, but will be there for you when you need it.

Can't tell you how many times I've noticed this.

When it comes to buying and selling homes, you know, I've, Glenn's moved a lot over the years.

I've moved a lot, sometimes at the same time as Glenn to the same cities.

And

one thing I could tell you is that when a real estate agent is competent and goes the extra mile consistently, you notice and it makes a big difference.

It's a huge investment.

You want to get it right.

And that's why Glenn started the company Real Estate Agents I Trust, because he wanted to find a way to connect you to the kind of agents he found.

These are people like you and me.

Many of them are even fans of the show.

They're knowledgeable, helpful, and they go that extra mile.

They're people Glenn likes, and they're agents he's very proud to work with.

So if you're in the market, check them out.

Real Estate Agents I Trust.

The name really does say it all.

Go to realestateagents I trust.com.

Ah, Joe Biden, President Joe Biden.

81 million votes, more than anybody's ever received in the history of this planet.

Just saying his name makes me proud.

Right?

Me proud.

Right?

Now, don't worry about the cocaine thing at the White House.

There's no way to tell whose that is.

We don't know.

It's going to be anybody's.

I'll tell you, yesterday afternoon, whoever it belonged to,

that person was like,

good.

That's for sure.

They closed the investigation, and you know they know.

The Secret Service knows exactly who put that in that cubby hole.

They know it.

I mean, you could make the case that they knew it from the very beginning.

You could make the wise.

They couldn't say they called for the lockdown and to bring in the hazmat team.

I mean, you're telling me the Secret Service didn't look at the little baggie and say, Come on.

Yeah, there's fingerprints on that.

You didn't dust it for prints or

right away?

Of course you knew it was cocaine.

And then Soldier of Fortune said that they did

have fingerprints on that.

And now they're saying they don't.

Yeah, with no fingerprints.

No, the FDI lab said no fingerprints.

No camera caught anybody.

It's just too many people.

Hundreds of people that could have gone through that area, so we just can't be sure.

We're just closing.

Don't worry about it.

Leave it alone.

Oh, you know, and we found Pot in the White House as well a couple times.

Yeah, a couple, couple times last year.

Last year.

Yeah, you didn't hear about that.

Small amounts.

Or we didn't talk about it much anyway.

Small amounts.

Yeah, so what?

So somebody's dealing drugs from the White House.

No big deal.

Dealing.

Dealing is a harsh word.

Using.

Like that hasn't happened before.

Thank you.

You know, they're using at the White House.

Are they dealing?

I don't know.

Yeah, we don't.

Well, we honestly, we don't know the size of the baggie they found.

We don't.

So, I mean, it could have been enough

for

someone to get in trouble for

a distribution, but that's, you know, it's just me worried about that.

Yeah.

Man.

So.

This is interesting.

I came across this great article that was in the Federalist about our return to normal.

Back during the campaign, Joe Biden promised us a return to normal.

How's that working out?

Really well.

Really well.

Okay, good.

Let's talk.

Okay, here we are two and a half years later, and look how normal things are.

They point out 10 examples of our normalcy.

Okay.

All right.

Like the LGBT activism, which is extreme.

Sure.

Sure, especially in those, you know, the last month during Pride Month was just over the top.

Agonizing.

In exchange for Trump's mean tweets, Biden's normal includes men showing off their prosthetic breasts on the White House lawn.

Right.

Remember that from a few weeks ago?

Right.

As extremists enforced Pride Month on

the rest of the country, the Biden family saw fit to host a Pride party at the symbolic residence.

Three of their guests proudly stripped off their tops.

to flaunt their mutilated true selves.

But the White House didn't have anything to do with that.

No, no, no, no, probably not.

Yes, they were.

That's what I'm saying.

They said they didn't want anything to do with that.

Sure.

Right.

After that backlash, they did say it was inappropriate.

Because nothing like

that ever happens at any other pride events.

Right.

Oh, well, except for all of them.

But don't worry about that.

That has nothing to do with anything.

Okay.

Number two thing they cite in the new normalcy that we finally got back,

corruption.

When Biden talked about normalcy, did he mean multi-million dollar bribery schemes from China and Ukraine?

What do you thought?

Thanks to astute lawmakers like Chuck Grassley and whistleblowers at the IRS and FBI, Americans are finally seeing past the Biden protection racket to the corrupt family business.

The numbers are up on that, too, right?

I mean, we talked a little bit earlier this morning on

my show.

I think that's Unleashed about people believing those whistleblowers.

56%.

Overall, 56% of Americans believe the whistleblowers.

By the way, we did talk about that on a show called Pat Gray Unleashed, and you can check that out right before this show, live, or anytime you want on podcast.

How about cocaine at the White House, which we've dealt with a little bit today, talked about that.

Number four, the federal weaponization and censorship.

The new normal is to

get involved with corporations like Google, like Twitter,

like Facebook, and and have them censor people so that you don't have to answer to anything anybody says or any disagreement with you.

Because it can shut that all down.

You don't want people to talk about your vaccine?

All right, just shut them down.

That's fine.

And even though, I mean, I know that Zuckerberg has, in fact, done an interview where he talked about some of that was wrong and he felt like you probably shouldn't have done that.

Well, then why are you, I mean, you're still kind of doing it.

Yeah, why are you still doing it?

What are we doing?

That's exactly right.

The fifth way that things have returned to normal, Bidenomics, you know, with the high inflation, the economy has been

an absolute disaster.

Interest rates are through the roof.

What were they?

2.9%, I think, when Trump left office, somewhere in there.

What are they now?

Seven?

I mean, we were in the first place when Trump left office.

Rough shape, Pat.

Yeah, gas prices were $1.87.

Interest rates were 2.9%.

I was looking through some old pictures, and I know it was during the pandemic, but I remember having picture fights with Jason Battrell over the cheapest gas prices.

And the last one I had was $119.

$119?

Yeah.

And I thought,

I would like to have half of that back.

How about

$240 would be fine?

I'm good with that.

Wow.

Where did you find it for $119?

And what year was that?

Was that

last year of Trump?

No, yeah, it was 2020, I think.

Wow.

Wow.

Number six on our return to normalcy with Biden.

We're on the edge of war.

Really, we're over the edge of the war.

We're over

aggressive, outrageous support for Ukraine.

And nobody wants Ukraine to be overrun by Russia.

Anytime you say anything about, hey, should we be doing this?

People are.

Why do you love Vladimir Putin so much?

If you love him so much, why don't you marry him?

Why do you love Vladimir Putin?

You love all brutal killers?

Is that what it is?

Yeah, that's what it is.

Yes, that's what it is.

We've never loved Putin.

I don't agree with him on anything.

But,

you know, do we need to send $250 billion to Ukraine and beef up our European force with 3,000 more troops?

And we've already sent them special forces.

There's under 100, but there's still American special forces there.

We continue to send them billions of dollars.

Billions.

Billions of dollars.

Every week is another cost.

$1 billion here, $800 million here.

I barely look at the stories that say another $600 million.

I'm like, oh, that's nothing.

No, no.

$600 million.

Wow, this is a light week.

What's going on?

One of the printing machines break down?

They make up for the next week with $4.1 billion or whatever.

It's incredible.

And he said that.

And you can't question it.

He said this week in his speech at the university in

wherever he was, Lithuania or wherever he was,

that we're in it forever.

We were not back down.

We're there forever.

And

that's it.

We're spending all the money and nothing's going to happen.

And then in another interview, he said that Putin's already lost.

Well,

then let's stop sending money.

We stopped doing the whole thing.

Right.

You know that's not going to happen.

That is not going to happen.

And so we continue to support, just blindly support the Ukrainians and

Vladimir Zelensky.

And he's pissed when we don't.

Yeah.

And he continues to bash us because we're not doing every single thing he wants us to do.

We're practically, we're doing about 90% of it, but we haven't allowed him into NATO yet.

But that's coming.

That's a declaration of war if we do that.

We can't do that.

Absolutely.

We can't do that.

I'm sorry.

He wants it to NATO right now because then we're bound by treaty to send troops.

And that's what he wants.

Yes.

It's exactly what he wants.

So this thing's completely out of control.

That's part of the new normal.

The seventh thing, part of the new Biden normal, science-denying health and human services assistant secretary.

Biden appointed a science-denying man as the first female four-star admin.

You're talking about Rachel Levin.

Yes.

Yes.

Rachel Rick.

What was his name?

What was his name?

He transitioned.

Yeah, he did.

He transitioned.

He's fully transitioned.

Is he?

Yeah.

He had the surgery and everything.

Good for her.

So why don't you back up?

Good for her.

All right.

It's Rachel.

Good for Rachel.

Good for you, Rachel.

Transgender identifying person and motivated LGBT ideologue is the Secretary for Health at Human Services.

I mean, she's a nightmare, too.

Oh, my God.

She was.

She wants to just radical.

Completely radical.

She's got to be kids, man.

She's all for it.

And let's have no restraint on what you can do to children.

Nope.

No age limit.

No limit on what you can do to their bodies.

That's unnatural.

I don't know.

It's unbelievable.

Number eight, we have a pop star as a medical expert.

In keeping with Biden's elevation of the unqualified, his administration turned to celebrities such as

18-year-old Olivia Rodrigo

to persuade Americans to fawn over

flailing Anthony Fauci.

And I guess she cut a, I didn't know this.

I don't think I ever saw the Olivia Rodrigo video.

She cut for her Instagram or her TikTok.

Trying to get people to get the vaccine.

Yeah.

Right?

Man.

Oh, man.

So listen to her or, you know.

Or not.

Or not.

Number nine.

Senility and lying.

Probably the easiest return to normal would have have been the election of a younger, more coherent president who maintains some

semblance of accountability to Americans.

Instead, Biden offers regular doses of verbal incoherence, sleepiness, gaffes, uncomfortable whispers and shouts, and tumbles.

Isn't all of that is so true.

That's all true.

These are all bad looks, but not as bad as the lies that spill out of the president daily, which the Federalist has tracked since his first first day in office.

Oh, nice.

Lying may be normal for Biden, but it shouldn't be normal for the presidency, and neither should perceived physical and cognitive weaknesses on the world stage.

I mean, the small lies happen.

I mean, that gets proven that it's a lie over and over every day, and he just continues to

matter.

It doesn't matter.

That's the amazing thing is he, even after it's been proven to be a lie, he continues to say it like this $1.7 trillion cut in the deficit that only he has done.

Nobody's ever done this before.

That didn't happen.

It did not happen.

I've promoted it earlier today.

You're telling me that didn't happen.

It did not happen.

Not only that, but the Washington Post

has called it

bottomless.

Misleading?

Oh, sorry.

Bottomless Pinocchio lie.

It's a bottomless Pinocchio lie because he keeps saying it even after it's been disproven.

Everyone knows it's not true.

Then you have the normal number 10 that they list here, the war war on the Supreme Court.

Boy, they definitely have that.

Oh, man.

You know,

I'm surprised that they haven't ramped up the talk about packing the court again quite as much as I thought they would, but they will get to it.

They'll get to it.

Yeah, they've got some other things to deal with right now, but soon the push will begin again.

to pack the Supreme Court with more liberals.

They'll get to it.

It will happen before.

It has to happen before his presidency ends.

Yeah, a couple things will happen.

The Supreme Court mayor probably will rule on a couple more things that

he's trying to pass, and then that'll be it.

And what they'll tell you is, oh, this is nothing new because the Supreme Court, it hasn't always been nine.

They've had more, they've had different amounts of justices over the years.

Yeah, but they can't say they've had more than nine because they never have.

It's never been more than nine.

Interesting.

It's been six.

You know, I think it was seven, but it's never never been more than nine.

Uh, and they leave that little tidbit

completely out.

Yeah, just don't mention it.

All right, triple eight 727-P-E-C-K.

It's Pat and Jeffy for Glenn and Glenn and Stewart in Iowa right now.

And you've got that whole thing to look forward to with Glenn and Tucker on a special edition of Glenn TV coming up more in one minute.

This month, we're celebrating the creation of our great country, our freedoms, and the heroes who fought to protect them.

Sadly, though, there are Americans today who do not have the freedom of life liberty

because it's been taken away from them before they even have a chance to fully experience it outside the womb.

These are your fellow Americans, and they're also fellow children of God.

Plus, they do have the protection of being our posterity.

These things were protected.

and given to us and our posterity.

Right in the preamble to the Constitution.

People forget that.

But Pre-Born is the largest pro-life ministry in the country, and they help to fight abortion by providing free ultrasounds to women in crisis.

They're about saving lives and souls, and the service they provide does exactly that.

Plus, they provide additional services and supplies for up to two years following the baby's birth.

So if we're to uphold the truths of the Constitution, we must acknowledge that babies in their mother's wombs are created equal and endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights that cannot and should not be taken away.

And they have the right to life and liberty to ourselves and our posterity.

One ultrasound is just $28, or five ultrasounds are $140.

To donate, just dial pound $250, say the keyword baby.

That's pound 250, keyword baby, or donate securely at preborn.com slash back.

That's preborn.com slash back, sponsored by pre-born.

Let's pause 10 seconds for station identification, shall we?

Plus, our wonderful president continues to nominate incompetent.

and radical people left and right.

Every, you know, from this so-called moderate.

How many times have we been told Joe Biden

is moderate?

Oh, he's right down the middle.

He's just, I mean, barely, barely to the left of center.

An extreme radical, one of the most liberal people in all of government.

And that's who he continues to nominate.

Right now, Senator Joe Manchin is apparently opposed to the deputy labor secretary Julie Sue's nomination to become labor secretary.

And

that struck a blow to her confirmation chances because it's a 51-49 situation now.

So they can't afford to lose even one.

And they've lost several Democrats because this person

sucks.

I mean, it's radical.

If you're getting too extreme for them.

Yeah, then something's wrong.

Something is

definitely wrong.

So labor secretary Marty Walsh left for the NHL.

He's now the head of the NHL Players Association.

So now she's been nominated.

And apparently there were some issues with her.

I believe she was labor secretary in California and did a

fantastic job in California.

Oh, yeah.

Look how good things are there.

They're perfect.

You're right.

Everything's perfect.

She left everything in tip-top shape.

So

thank goodness, Joe Manchin has held the line on a few things.

You know,

he's not dependable necessarily.

You can't count on him.

But every once in a while, he'll stand up and say, you know what?

No, I'm not going to go there with you.

And thank goodness for that.

Yeah.

I mean, I'm happy when he does.

No question.

I never, I always kind of doubt it.

You know, like, now he said that, but he's still going to go along with the crowd.

But he and Kristen Sinema and a few, like one other.

I think there's three moderates in the Democrat Party.

But thank heaven for them.

Yeah.

I mean, we need them.

You know, we need them badly.

We need them.

Because we've got a president who is an extremist.

Oh, man.

And a president who is

cognitively compromised.

Is that safe to say?

I don't know.

You tell me.

Here's one of the things.

Give an example.

Yeah, I got an example for you.

Let me give you an example.

This is the president.

This is just from yesterday.

Soon NATO will be the 32nd

freestanding, have

30 free

32 freestanding members standing together to defend our people and our territory.

Yeah, that's not funny.

That's not funny.

Pretty soon there'll be three free, free, three

stand-sitting people.

32 free

things.

You know, no,

look,

you know what I'm saying.

He can't get there.

I mean, he's so bad.

Embarrassing.

And this is on the world stage in front of other world leaders.

I think this was with the president of Finland, maybe.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And the president of Finland is looking like at him like, what are we doing?

Dude, what is wrong with you?

You, seriously, you need to go to a rest home.

The sandbag over there, be careful.

All right.

888-727-BECK.

More Pat and Jeffy for Glenn coming up.

The Glenn Back Program.

Let me tell you about a hero and his family.

Marine Corps Corporal.

Seth Rasmussen was one of five Marines who were tragically killed in a training accident when his Osprey aircraft crashed in California.

The 21-year-old Marine, who gave his life in the service of his country, is survived by his wife Avery and their infant son.

Within days of Corporal

Rasmussen's death, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation reached out to his widow and let her know that she and her son would be receiving a mortgage-free home.

How cool is that?

Because of Tunnel to Towers.

And that means because of donations from people like you.

Avery and her son weren't weren't going to have to worry about where they would live or how they were going to pay for it.

This is what Tunnel to Towers does, and they've helped over a thousand military and first responder families during the most difficult parts of their lives.

And again, it's because of people just like you.

Support our nation's heroes and their families.

Donate $11 a month to tunnel to towers at t2t.org.

That's t, the number two, t.org.

t2t.org.

Hey, check out my podcast, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher, because you can never get enough of me, Jeff Fisher, anywhere you get your podcast.

It's Pat and Jeffy today for Glenn and Stu, who are in Iowa right now at the Family Summit.

We're going to play some of this Biden stuff for you because,

oh my gosh, is it embarrassing?

Just embarrassing.

He's been on this world trip now.

Yeah.

And it's - I mean, he started off with the king, right?

Yeah, King Derry Dingle there in London.

King Dingle.

King Dingle in London.

That's his technical name.

King Dingle.

I believe he was crowned that when he got the crown.

If you really want to be formal, it's King Dingleberry.

Okay.

Well, I'm sorry.

A lot of them just cut it short and call him King Dingle.

To his face, it's Dingleberry.

You're right.

Right.

Sorry.

Yes.

But I mean,

he's wandering down when he's looking at the guards.

He's leaning on the king so he doesn't fall over.

I mean, even the Dingle King is like, dude, why are you talking about it?

I know.

Stop touching.

It's against protocol to be touching him like that.

And he just kept doing it because I think he falls down if he can

hang on to somebody.

I think so, too.

Yeah.

I mean, there's been multiple times.

The last trip overseas, he almost took a big tumble.

I mean, he almost felt it.

The one in Ireland.

He almost fell down a flight of stairs.

That would have been bad.

Yeah, that would have been awesome.

Really bad.

And that was close.

He would have been hurt had he fallen down.

Oh, my gosh, yes.

Yeah.

And you notice that since then, he walks much, much slower.

Yes, he does.

And he doesn't try the fake jog thing as much.

No, he just.

He does still do it.

When he moves his arms fast.

Look at me.

I can move my arms like I'm jogging.

He still does it, but he's stopped doing it multiple times now.

Yeah.

The last time he did it where he looked, he had this, you know, befuddled look on his face like, you want me to go this way?

Yeah.

and he's like oh okay and then just one little quick one like he's he doesn't do any more than that because otherwise he'd fall over i think so yeah that's right that's right that's exactly what the deal is and so

he stopped in uh helsinki to meet with nordic leaders right after the nato summit in uh vilnius lithuania and

his remarks

As he's, here's what the article says.

He delivered the remarks alongside Finnish president Sauli Ninisto.

Ninisto appeared slightly baffled as Biden struggled to get through his prepared remarks.

At the very beginning, when he starts doubling, at the very beginning, he's like, what is happening?

Then he kind of backs it up and tries to realize he has to be a little bit more diplomatic.

But at the very beginning, man, he's like, what is going on with you?

Yeah.

Why?

How did you get elected president of the United States of America?

Wow.

That's a great question.

Stay in trouble.

81 million votes.

I know.

Here's part of that.

Frederickson of Denmark and

the Ministry of Cola, the daughter of Ireland, daughter of Ireland.

You can tell that's a 40th slip.

I'm thinking of home, the daughter of Iceland.

And

I want to say I think we've had a very productive summit.

The Ministry of Cola, the daughter of Ireland.

What are you talking about?

That's a Freudian slip.

The Ministry of Cola.

The daughter of Ireland.

Daughter of Ireland.

You can tell that's a Freudian slip.

I'm thinking of home.

Ireland's not your home.

Well, I mean, the daughter of Iceland.

So we meant the daughter of Iceland.

And I don't know who the daughter of Iceland is.

I want to do some investigating into that.

Maybe somebody knows and could let us know.

The daughter of Iceland.

The daughter of Iceland.

Who is that?

And who's the daughter of Iceland's father?

Is well, of course, I don't even know if Iceland is the mother or the father.

We just know this is a daughter of Iceland.

So there's got to be.

I'm assuming that Iceland is the female.

Yes.

And I don't know why.

That's just a prejudice on my part, I guess.

I'm with you, though.

Because Iceland could be the father.

I don't think it could.

I don't know.

I don't think it could.

You don't think so?

No, I'm with you on that.

Okay, Iceland is the mom.

Absolutely.

I think that's.

Greenland is the father.

Oh.

Right?

Yeah, because Greenland is just big.

It's just big and

cold

and

doesn't have a lot of emotion.

Doesn't talk a lot.

Yeah, this is just over there.

You don't hear a lot out of Greenland.

So that's obviously the dad, right?

Most of it's just useless.

But who is the daughter of Iceland?

I need to know that.

And then

his heritage, I guess, he's talking about with Ireland.

Yeah, I guess.

Maybe Ireland is the daughter.

But I mean, he's got heritage from all over the place.

I used to do it for the Senate seat when I was 29 years old.

Uh-huh.

It was because I started to call me Joe Bidenopoulos.

Oh, you think I'm kidding?

I'm not joking.

Am I?

He's not joking.

Maybe Irish, but I'm not stupid.

Oh.

I married Dominic Giacoppa's daughter, so I got an old Italian.

I mean, he's got Italian, he's got Greek.

But everybody

is either Polish or Italian.

I grew up feeling self-conscious.

My name didn't end in the SKI.

I am

sort of raised in the Puerto Rican community.

Puerto Rican community, too.

Don't forget that.

So we came here for a long time,

both for business and pleasure, since

I got raised in the black church.

Then he was raised in the black church.

I got my education.

Parent.

In the black church.

In the black church.

And that's not hyperbole.

It's a fact.

Okay.

I probably

went to show more than many of you.

And then he's Jewish.

Okay, so there's his Jewish roots.

He's got it all.

He's got it all.

This guy.

Amazing.

Makes you proud.

It does, doesn't it?

Makes you proud.

And it makes you even prouder when he's standing there next to another world leader.

I mean, I don't care if it's Finland or Iceland or wherever.

It's embarrassing.

It is.

It is embarrassing.

That these other world leaders are like, what is the matter with America electing this guy?

I mean, this is the same NATO countries that were all

upset at Trump.

And by the way, tough and good.

Right.

But now they're happy they got rid of Trump.

Are you?

Are you happy you got rid of Trump?

Maybe they are, maybe because they just do what they have their way.

Well, they have their way.

He pushed them to actually contribute, which they didn't like.

No, of course.

Yeah, no, they didn't want anything to do with it.

But he did.

Yeah.

He did it anyway.

And they did.

And they did.

And they did.

And so maybe they like being able to push Biden around.

But at some point when you're at the table, you're like, oh, man, we got to.

I know.

What are we doing?

I know.

What are we doing?

Exactly.

What are we doing?

What did 81 million people vote for?

And there will be some who say, well, 81 million people didn't vote for that.

Not on this show.

Not on this show, my friend.

No, no, you're right.

Those are just the conspiracy theorists.

So we don't want to hear from

them, right?

Don't you?

There were no problems with that election.

It went beautifully.

Those Dominion voting machines worked.

They were perfect.

They were perfect.

Ask Fox about that now.

I'll bet they'll say this.

Let's see, $787 million later.

Yeah, they were fine.

Everything was good.

Did you know that Fox, speaking of that, to take a little side tour here?

SmartMatic, was that the name of the

software?

The software program is suing Fox for $2.7 billion.

$2.7 billion.

Then they got the Ray Epps thing.

We don't even know the dollar figure there, but it's going to be significant.

What are they going to do?

Oh, no.

If they have to pay off Smart Matic as well as Dominion, and I imagine they will.

Precedent now with the Dominion deal, right?

Right.

I mean, they settled, right?

That wasn't.

Yeah, settled with it.

They didn't want to go to court on that.

It'd be a good time to go to work for Smart Matic.

They're going to have a little extra cash soon.

Pretty much.

Yeah, absolutely.

I mean, holy cow.

It'll be a good time to beat Ray Epps because he's going to wind up with tens of millions.

I'll bet you.

They're just going to settle with all these.

They're going to get a producer $12.5 million.

They're going to give Epps a little more, but they're more than that.

For nothing.

I love that story so much.

I don't think she even claimed to have been improperly touched by anybody.

Nobody really said

nasty things

to her.

She never even worked in the same building as Tucker.

She never even met him in person.

Didn't even meet him in person.

It was the producers that had an issue that she had an issue with, right?

That were around the show with Tucker Carlson tonight.

So that's the only way Tucker is tied to it because it was the show.

Yes.

They work for Tucker.

Yeah.

And I guess Tucker was supposed to head that off.

Hey, don't put up swimsuit photos of Nancy Pelosi around the office.

I mean,

does he even know that that's happening?

Probably not.

He's not even there.

So

I don't know.

But that's amazing.

She got $12.5 million, if you're not familiar with the story.

$12.5 million settlement from Fox.

Pretty sweet.

Real sweet.

Pretty sweet.

You can harass me all day

if I can get $12.5 million out of it.

Put up pictures of whoever.

I don't care.

For $12.5 million?

Yeah.

I'll take that abuse for it.

The horror.

Don't make me look at that anymore.

Ow, ow.

Okay.

I'm going to sue you now.

Yeah, so that's amazing.

And with the SmartMatic thing pending and the Ray Epps thing pending, things are not looking good at Fox News right now.

And what's good is they got rid of their number one guy.

That's the good part of it.

You always want to get rid of your talent.

What a relief that talent.

Yes, you do.

You want to get rid of your top talent at networks.

You want to do that.

You do.

That's important.

Like, if you're a Super Bowl-winning team, the first thing you want to do, like, if you're the Kansas City Chiefs, we got to get rid of this Patrick Mahomes cat.

Let's get rid of him because, man, he's led us to two Super Bowls.

Well, two Super Bowl victories, three Super Bowls overall.

I can't have that.

Have you watched any of it speaking to that?

I started watching

on Netflix.

It's really good.

Really good.

Really good.

Between NFL Films and Omaha Productions, Peyton Manning.

It's really good, man.

I've been having fun watching that.

They focus on Patrick Mahomes,

Kirk Cousins,

and Marcus Mariota.

From Atlanta.

Yeah.

So

it's pretty interesting because it's all access, man.

I can't wait to get to the Mariota part because he lost his job late in the season and just left.

And they followed him.

All access, right?

I mean, we got it all.

Yeah.

Right.

All access to that.

So that'll be fun.

And I was reminded about how they lost the first, you know, he fumbled and caused them to lose the first couple of games with those terrible fumbles.

Oh, wow.

I mean, it was.

Not good.

No, not good at all.

That's a bad year to have all access for somebody.

Perfect year for us.

All right.

888-727-BECK, Pat and Jeffrey for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.

Okay, if you think that our economy isn't in for a beating, well earned by the Biden administration, think again.

Even during the best of times, I always suggest that you need to secure your money the best way that you can.

And right now, these are not necessarily the best of times.

So do some homework and see what you need to lock things down.

Gold and silver can be a great conservative way to keep what you've worked so hard to earn and save.

Your dollar isn't worth a dollar anymore, and it's getting less valuable every day.

This week, with every one ounce purchase of five of their popular one ounce gold legal tender bar cards, these are great for carrying around.

It breaks up

a gold coin by the Canadian Mint into several different

units of measurement.

If you buy one of these cards, you'll get 25 of the silver Mayflower rounds at no cost.

Those are great.

Never seen a deal like this at Goldline.

One ounce gold legal tender bar.

You buy it, you get at no cost 25 of the silver Mayflower rounds as well.

Goldline.com, 866 Goldline, 866 Goldline.

Join the conversation: 888-727 back.

The Glenn Beck program.

It's Pat and Jeffy for Glenn today.

They're in Iowa right now, Glenn and Stu in Iowa.

And that forum is going on right now, the summit.

The family summit is happening.

Of course, Tucker Carlson is there.

He'll be talking with the candidates.

And then tonight, Glenn and Tucker will be together on a very special episode of Glenn TV.

So watch for that.

I think that's around 6.30 Central, 5.30,

6.30.

How about you just tune in to watch?

Yeah.

How about you just tune in and watch?

And when it happens, it happens.

Exactly right.

Thank you.

All right.

How about that?

So apparently there's some controversy online because somebody came out with a list of the greatest athletes of all time.

ML Football, it's an independent Twitter reporter, sports reporter, posted his top 10 greatest athletes of all time, which got me thinking about since we we were talking about quarterback on Netflix.

And the people are a little ticked that some people aren't on the list.

Okay.

You know, the main focus, and I'll give you the top 10 greatest athletes of all time according to ML football.

Okay.

Number 10.

Number 10.

Mike Trout.

Okay, Mike Trout.

Yeah.

Okay.

Los Angeles Angels or California Angels or whatever they're called today.

Angel League Baseball, yeah.

One of the great baseball players of all time, probably.

Number nine, Serena Williams.

Top 10 greatest athletes of all time.

In her sport, she really dominated for a long time.

Roger Federer.

Okay, we're talking tennis stars here, but all right.

Athlete?

Yes.

Number seven.

All right.

Mohamed Ali.

Mohamed Ali.

Okay.

Number six, Usain Bolt.

Very fast.

Number five.

He could run pretty quickly.

He could.

He could.

Number five.

Number five.

Michael Phelps.

Michael Phelps.

Michael Phelps.

Okay.

Number five.

Number four.

Number four?

Michael Jordan.

Hmm.

Really?

Just fourth?

Fourth.

Huh.

All right.

I think that's a little low for him.

I don't.

I mean,

I think that's low for him.

They're higher.

But might look at the other names on the list and you think, okay, quite an athlete.

All right.

Number three.

Lionel Messi.

From soccer?

Get out of here.

No.

I'm sorry.

No.

See, that's

your bias, though.

Perhaps.

That's just your bias of a soccer-hating Hammond, which is a good thing.

So he can kick the ball, and then somebody else kicks it.

It's maybe a different way.

Michael, what's Michael do?

Oh, he throws the ball into a little back.

Stupid.

Wayne Gretzky, number two.

Wayne Gretzky, number two.

Really good hockey.

It's a little thing.

No, he dominated hockey for a long time.

All these people dominated.

Yes, they did.

Number one.

Number one, the greatest athlete of all

time.

Tom Brady.

Oh, no.

Tom Brady.

No.

What do you mean, no?

He's not an athlete.

Tom Brady is a great quarterback.

He might be the greatest quarterback of all time.

He's not the greatest.

Well, he's definitely the greatest quarterback of all time.

Get out of here.

The guy runs probably an eight, second, 40.

He's won like 80 Super Bowls.

Come on.

Tom Brady.

He's won, I believe, seven Super Bowls.

Like I said, 80.

Okay.

That's close to 80.

I think you're right.

Not quite there.

People are all wound up that,

you know, know Simone Biles.

Okay.

No Katie Ladecki.

Michael Phelps is on it.

I mean, if Phelps is on it, so I mean.

What did they think he should be number one?

You know, he was fifth.

Wasn't they just saying that if Phelps is on it, then Simone Biles and Katie Ladecki's fair there.

So other Olympians should be on it, too.

Yeah, I don't know.

It's pretty subjective.

But if you're talking best athlete,

I don't know.

I don't know if Tom Brady belongs.

Right?

You know, an athlete, you think he does athletic things.

Right.

And throwing the ball is athletic, but I mean, he can't run very fast.

He's not good at breaking tackles.

You know, I mean, you need to be a different sort of

person to be an athlete.

Yes, right.

Thank you.

For example,

for example.

The Glen Deck program.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together if we're gonna survive.

Stand up, stand, and hold the light.

It's a new day, our time to rise.

What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is

the Glenn Beck program.

All right.

It is Pat and Jeffy for Glenn on the Glen Beck program.

We got a ton of stuff still left to get to.

We will get to that in just 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about another hero and his family.

This is police officer Jeffrey Carson and his family from Franklin, Tennessee.

Officer Carson was a successful career country music singer, but he left all that behind to serve his community.

And he was on the Franklin Police Department for 14 years before sadly suffering a fatal heart attack in the line of duty last year.

Just weeks after his tragic death, the Tunnell to Towers Foundation met with his wife and and son to let them know that they would be taking care of their mortgage.

Just one less thing they have to worry about now.

This is what Tunnel to Towers does.

And they've helped over a thousand military and first responder families during the most difficult parts of their lives.

And again, it's because of people just like you.

The foundation has helped hundreds of first responder families across America by removing the burden of a mortgage.

Thanks to supporters like you, join them on their mission.

It only takes $11 a month.

Donate to tunnel to towers at t2t.org.

That's t the number two t.org.

A few minutes ago, we were talking about this list that came out.

I guess it was just an online thing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

ML football, yeah.

The greatest

athlete of all time.

Give me the top 10 again.

What were the top 10?

Open it back up again.

Oh, geez.

Tom Brady was number one.

Tom Brady was the number one athlete.

And, you know, Tom Brady is a great quarterback.

But when you think athlete, you think not just throwing, but running, jumping, twisting, turning, you know, all the things that athletes do.

All the things that possibly Tom Brady wasn't doing.

Right.

Exactly.

I mean, Tom Brady, you know,

he can.

He's a great quarterback.

He's a great quarterback.

He can throw a little bit of a ball.

He can give a bill.

Absolutely.

He makes good decisions.

Those are the things.

So you had Wayne Gretzky, Gretzky.

Yeah.

Number two, Lionel Messi, Michael Jordan, Michael Phelps, Usain Bolt, Mohamed Ali, Roger Federer, Serena Williams, Mike Trout.

Okay, I'm thinking like a guy like Deion Sanders.

Why isn't he on the list?

Bo Jackson.

Yes.

Those are some athletes, right?

They can do a whole bunch of different things really super well.

What's your argument for Michael Jordan?

Michael Jordan, yeah.

He could be at the top of the list.

But, you know, when I think Tom Brady, probably the greatest quarterback, I don't don't know, unless you're talking about, I don't know, Sammy Baug.

And who doesn't talk about Sammy Baugh?

I mean,

right, Sammy Baugh.

Red Grainger, I think, played

quarterback.

Another one.

Another one.

I can't hear enough about Red Granger and Sammy Ball.

Grainger, I don't know if Grainger even played quarterback.

He was mostly a running back.

Yeah, he's a bad quarterback.

I think.

But Sammy Baugh.

But Sammy Baugh.

There is a guy.

And what about our boy?

Bronco Nagurski.

Bronco Nagurski.

You're playing with no legs and no arms.

Right.

Right.

Those are guys, seriously, they got punched in the face.

They had a broken nose, a broken jaw.

They lost five teeth.

They're coming out for the second half.

They're not saying.

You know what?

I might have turf toes.

He's being looked at.

I've got to be out for four weeks.

He's being looked at under the tent.

No.

No, he's not doing that.

No.

No, they lost limbs and they went back out there to play.

But anyway, you know what?

Sammy Ball, yes, deserves to be on this list.

Sammy Ball should be on this list.

Bronco Nagurski

should definitely be on this list.

Right.

The guys from, you know.

The frozen tundra of Lembo Field.

Those guys.

Yes.

Those guys.

The warriors take to the feet.

Bronco Nagurski, who'd lost both legs, his left arm, and his right eye in the first half.

Bloodstain Jersey.

Crawled back out for the second half.

He's not on the list.

He's not on the list.

Not on the list.

Not on the list.

That's just, there's, it's unconscionable.

I don't know what's going on.

And never mind Simone Miles not being on the list.

That's what started this is that I was reading where they were mad because Simone Miles wasn't on the list.

And I was like, come on now.

No, come on.

She wouldn't even compete in the Olympics.

She quit.

She quit.

I know that she had some kind of thing, but I mean, superstars show up.

Some kind of thing.

Some kind of thing.

Was it depression?

Well, it was like it was depression.

Well, she got depression because she couldn't do her stuff.

Right.

So the thing, I want to say vertigo, but I don't remember exactly what it was.

She did or claimed to be suffering from something like that.

But superstars show up, Pat.

Yes, they do.

Superstars show up.

You and I both show up.

Like Bronco Naguski.

That's correct.

Right?

That's correct.

Yeah.

I mean, you and I are both clear examples of superstars showing up.

I could have said Glenn, I can't fill in today.

I'm tired.

I got a little bit of nausea.

Did you?

But no, I'm here.

Thank you.

Right?

I'm here.

So, and

you are as well.

Because I'm glad.

No, I'm hungry.

Well, I'm still hungry.

But I'm here.

But we're here.

That's right.

We've shown up for the second half.

Because superstars show up.

They show up.

Simone.

Exactly right.

Exactly right.

We talked about this on my show yesterday, and it was the wrong time to do it because you weren't there.

But apparently there's a shortage of antibiotics right now to fight syphilis.

There's a shortage of

many things.

But syphilis in particular.

I know.

Because apparently Bicillin LA is in short supply.

Struggling.

I mean,

I can't tell you how much gas I've wasted driving to different pharmacies.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

This one doesn't have it, and then this one's not a 24-hour, so you've got to wait till they're open regular hours.

Right.

It's a hassle.

Pfizer announced there would be shortages Bicillin LA last month.

It's a long-acting injectable antibiotic that's also known as, as you know, Jeffrey,

being the regular user, a penicillin G benzathine.

I mean the amount of times I've heard you talk about penicillin G benzothine, if I had a nickel for each of them.

And I will say that there are times, depending on the

strain of syphilis that you

have,

G doesn't work.

Really?

Oh, no.

I know.

Really?

Okay.

You have to bring it down.

And it can bring

life-threatening problems, including angina, aortic aneurysm, heart failure, seizures, memory problems,

personality changes, no joke, dementia.

Hmm.

Know anybody like that?

Huh.

Nerve pain,

joint pain, and problems with organs.

So, yeah, all of that stuff.

Isn't this what they said Hitler had?

At the end?

And that's why he was making such really bad decisions.

Hey, you know what?

Let's attack Russia right now.

Let's attack the Soviet Union and we'll send our troops over there in shorts

because winter's coming and

they'll want to cool off a little bit.

They'll want to have a little snowball fights.

So, yeah,

I think that was.

They did say that.

I think they do say that that was part of his mental illness.

And, you know,

you're not trying to equate another world leader with Adolf Hitler, are you?

No.

Why?

No.

Okay.

I misunderstood what you said.

No, I was equating a world leader with dementia, though.

So, yeah, there's no doubt

I was equating a world leader with dementia, but not Hitler.

Because

I don't think we've started killing people yet.

So, I mean, we,

this person that I was thinking of, I don't think has started killing people yet.

Wow.

No.

Who knows?

Who knows at this point?

All right.

Did you know that

Yellowstone, it's official now.

I guess I thought it was already official, but the show Yellowstone, which still hasn't returned for the second half of season five.

It's not going to now.

It's not going to?

Well, I mean, Pat, you

contracts are up.

Yeah.

And then they're on strike.

So, I mean, right.

But haven't they already recorded?

They haven't done the season.

No, they haven't seen it.

It's not produced?

They started filming the last season.

Because I thought it was on for like November or something.

Oh, well, that was their original time, but they had to get filming in.

That was what.

Oh, my God.

What's his face Costner was arguing over originally was the amount of time he would spend filming.

Right.

And, you know, the fighting between

Taylor

was kind of blown out of proportion.

But it was a contractual thing between how much time he was going to spend filming.

He didn't want to spend

in Montana because the wife told him that she was going to leave if he continued to work on Yellowstone.

And so she left.

She left.

Even though he didn't continue to work on Yellowstone.

So they've got a big fight happening now, any over billions of dollars.

I love their fight, by the way.

He is trying to pay her, I think he wants to pay her $52,000 a month for child support.

And

she wants a little bit more than that.

You have to change your old lifestyle.

$248,000 plus per month.

The judge sided with Kevin at the house.

He's got a great place

along the beach in North Carolina.

I bet he does.

It's gorgeous.

I forget how many acres it is there, but he had a baseball field, Field of Dreams built there.

Is that the one they're renting out?

He's got, well, they rented one of the houses on the property.

Oh, my gosh.

And that's the one you're getting $61,000 a month from.

Right.

And she gets all that.

Well, the rental house was, he was renting to a friend of his until he found out that he was stopping over for coffee a little too often while he was gone.

Really?

Taking care of a little business along the beach.

Really?

Yeah, that was the start of it.

So his wife was cheating on him?

Is what you're alluding to here?

That's what I read.

Oh, man.

That's what I read.

That's sad.

I don't like that.

But that place is gorgeous.

He's got all these acreage acreage here, and then he's got some acreage just down the road from there.

Those are where they keep the horses.

You can go and visit down there if you want.

I mean, so many of us who keep horses at a separate location know what he goes through there.

But the jets sided with him.

She's got to get out.

She wanted to stay there and with the kids and stuff.

And now she's got to get out of that place.

That's his.

So we'll see.

All right.

So anyway, no more Yellowstone.

We're not going to get to the end of this

of the fifth season?

Probably not.

It's just over.

That would suck.

Come on.

Look,

we've got the strike going on.

Yeah.

We've got the writers' strike and

the actors joined the strike.

Coming up.

And they're talking about, I mean, they were, but yesterday, prior to the actors going on strike, they talked about not sitting down with the writers until October.

Oh, man.

So now they make the case that, you know, these platforms and companies are just trying to wait them out until these people, you know, are going to lose their homes and not have any money to feed themselves.

And they're just going to come back to the table and say, you know, we got to work.

Pay us whatever it is.

Stupid.

Because it hurts the people.

The people like Kevin Costner are fine.

They've made a lot of money.

What, 5% of the actors that make all the money?

Right.

And the rest are just making a living.

Worker beat.

They are barely getting by.

They're living paycheck to paycheck.

Like the rest of the money.

And they're making a living.

And the cameraman and the, you know, all the props people and everything, they're making a living in Hollywood doing it, which is great.

But when there's no work, they all suffer.

Yeah.

So this new sequel, is that even going to get done?

I don't know.

All these shows are on hold now.

Because they're talking about a sequel, and all we know about it, don't know the name.

I guess Yellowstone is going to be in the title somewhere.

But Matthew

Matthew McConaughey is going to be.

Yeah, Taylor's working on a couple other shows.

I mean,

it's got like six or seven shows

in the barrel,

which are going to be great.

But yeah, the new Yellowstone, that's supposed to be with McConaughey.

But all these shows are done.

I mean, except for

what's the app I'm thinking of?

Oh, yeah, Blaze TV.

Except for that app, I mean, I may be pulling the plug on these other apps if they're not going to give me new content.

Yeah, forget it.

Why am I paying you $5 to $15 a month?

Yeah.

Shouldn't be.

Right.

Shouldn't be.

I mean, look at how the landscape has changed.

It used to be you just, you know, you got cable TV, right?

You either had basic or you got got cable TV and then you got extended cable TV.

Now you've got all of these apps that each cost

in addition to whatever you pay for cable or satellite.

If you still have it, I don't have it.

If you still have it,

which I do,

because of live sports and whatever.

But I mean, I got,

you've got, if you want live sports, you can set up deals through Hulu now.

And, you know, YouTube TV's got their NFL network deal, but Hulu has live sports and their ESPN deal.

YouTube up to like 70 bucks a month or something?

I dropped YouTube.

That's ridiculous.

I went to Hulu Live, and

I got HBO, and I think Disney threw Hulu with the deal, and then the ESPN package, so I get sports, which I'm a fan of.

I'm not doing it without sports.

You know what I'm actually?

I can do without the NFL package, but I got to have the sports.

I got to have the football.

During football season, I got to have college football.

I got to have college football.

And I got to have NFL.

I mean, I just have to.

That's just an absolute must.

Yeah, it's a must.

Yes.

It's a must.

I mean, you have to breathe and you have to have college football.

888727, BECK.

First, the chairman of the Fed, Jerome Powell, keeps predicting a recession in the United States.

You know,

that's going to be good.

No, no, seriously.

Well, we have more rate hikes coming.

That would be great.

Wouldn't that be great for the...

Here's the thing.

You want to wait six months, see what happens, or do you want to prepare now?

Get all this worry off of your plate.

You have 401ks.

You have some retirement funds.

Find out if any of those can be converted partially even into gold or silver.

This week only at Goldline, with every purchase of five of their popular one-ounce gold legal tender bars, you're going to receive 25 ounces of pure silver for free.

That's an incredible deal.

25 of the silver Mayflower rounds at no cost.

The legal tender bar cards have been sold out for almost two months.

They just got them back in from the Canadian Mint, and they're going to sell out again.

So don't wait to call, especially with this deal.

I've never seen Goldline make a deal like this before.

25 of the silver Mayflower rounds at no cost with every legal tender bar card that you buy.

They're going to be sold out quickly.

Go to goldline.com or just pick up the phone and call them.

No obligation.

866Goldline.

866

Goldline.

Let's pause 10 seconds for station identification, shall we?

This is kind of interesting.

The 10 states with the best economies in America for the residents of those states.

Okay.

Okay.

Now, would you guess that these states are normally going to be Republican-dominated or Democrat?

Democratic dominated state.

Yeah, take a guess.

Democrat.

No, you got it wrong.

You got it exactly wrong.

There is one Democrat state, Delaware at number 10.

Okay, for

well over a century, the first state's business laws and court system have made it a favored spot to incorporate.

So, this is what Delaware has gone for because everybody incorporates there.

And so, that was kind of a smart move on their part.

Yes, it was.

But their GDP growth was 2.1%.

Their job growth was 2.5%.

Okay, they've got a debt rating and outlook from Moody's of AAA.

They're stable.

At number nine, though, Indiana, obviously a very Republican state, their job growth is 2.6%.

GDP, 1.9%.

They also have a AAA rating for Moody's.

At number eight,

Idaho, also Republican.

Interesting.

Led by the Jim State's surging real estate and IT sectors, Idaho's economy was the fastest growing in the nation last year, and job growth was among the best as well.

The GDP grew by almost 5%.

That's amazing.

Wow.

And the job growth was 3% in Idaho.

So doing really well.

At number seven, South Carolina.

The Palmetto State is a popular place to start a business with nearly 96,000 startups in 2021.

South Carolina ranked in the top 10 per capita.

State ranked third for housing price appreciation last year, even as homebuilders steadily added to the supply.

Okay, but they don't have any S ⁇ P 500 company headquarters in the state.

Business opportunities can be hard to come by.

At number six, Utah.

Utah's been on fire for a long time.

So this is the top state's top 10

for their economy, for the residents of that state.

The residents.

Okay.

The Beehive State's economy just keeps buzzing.

State finances are nearly as good as they get, according to CNBC.

Job growth continues as Utah's tech economy and mining sector gain strength.

So their GDP growth was 2.7.

The job growth was 3.1.

They also have a AAA rating from Moody's.

Another Republican state at number five, Tennessee.

The volunteer state is another growth story.

The nation's second fastest growing economy last year, led by durable goods manufacturing.

So they went up 4.3%.

Job growth 4.1.

Wow.

Number four, Georgia, the home of household names like Home Depot, Delta, Coke.

So they offer a diverse and dynamic economy.

The GDP grew by 2.8%, job growth 3.4%.

North Carolina was number three.

At number two, you might have heard of this place, Texas.

Lone Star State added nearly 630,000 jobs last year.

The 4.8% jump in non-farm payrolls was among the best in the nation.

Our economy continues to grow at a Texas-sized pace.

So, GDP went up 3.4%, job growth 4.8%.

Wow.

And at number one,

who would you guess?

At number one.

At number one.

With a bullet, Florida.

Oh, no.

That's right.

Who's the governor there?

He's speaking today, though.

DeSantis, yes, he is at the family summit.

So things are going well for the Republican-led states.

That's kind of interesting, isn't it?

The Glenn Beck program.

Unless you're the type of person who just loves having a whole bunch of complicated, extra things to do in your already busy life, buying and selling homes is probably not your strong suit.

I know it's never been mine.

That's for sure.

I always, what I like to do is buy high and sell low.

And there are some people who say, that's the opposite of what you should be doing.

Really?

Now you tell me.

I will say that's the only way that that's happened for me.

I made it.

Selling low.

Oh, it happens a lot.

Which I didn't have.

Yeah.

Real estate agents I trust.

Right.

Sometimes the market is right and you got to go for it.

When that time comes, you need help.

And I mean, expert help.

That's why Glenn started Real Estate Agents I Trust.

They work with the best real estate agents in your area.

The people who've decided to make this their full-time occupation and who throw themselves into it all the way.

There's no halfway with these guys.

From the starting point all the way to the ending point, these agents will be right by your side.

It's Real Estate Agents I Trust.

Check out his show, Pat Gray Unleashed, every day.

7 to 9

really good.

Anywhere you get your podcast.

Great show.

A lot of people love that.

Yeah,

right.

Yeah, that's right.

That's right.

All right.

Jeff Fisher has a fat five.

Chewing the fat five, baby.

Where'd that name come from?

Chewing the fat.

That's my daily show, Pat.

That's funny you should ask.

Huh?

Chewing the fat.

Available wherever you get your podcast.

Now, let me ask you this question because I know you've been fighting for us for a long, long time, and I just hope the effort continues to be successful.

Have you been able to keep the price down on that podcast?

Have you been able to?

Pat, thanks for asking.

Yeah, you're welcome.

I have.

Oh, wow.

Thank you.

Right now, if you act today and subscribe to Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher.

But I got to act quickly, right?

Because there's no telling how long it's going to be.

Forever.

There's no telling how long it's going to last.

I mean, the manager's out of town and we've gone crazy.

You can do it.

You can get it for free.

For free.

Today.

Wow.

Today.

Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher.

Can I be the first to say?

Thank you.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

You're welcome.

All right.

And here's the fat five.

Coming to a city near you soon, Paris City Hall, is to impose higher parking fees on owners of SUVs in its battle to reduce pollution in the capital.

Where is this?

In Paris.

D.C.

Oh, Paris.

No, I mean,

we're already doing that in New York and Washington for sure.

Did you see the guy who did the Paris tour?

Yeah, we played it on my show today.

You did see it.

He went to Paris and he filmed all of the things that are going on in Paris.

And it's

a hole.

Unpleasant.

It's just a hole.

I mean, it's, well, it's sadly, it's like many American cities with

graffiti everywhere, trash everywhere, homeless everywhere.

The city's just been trash.

And they absolutely, you'd think that they were going to be for all this climate change thing because there was something called the Paris Accord.

Oh, yeah, right, right, right.

Isn't that what it happened?

Which happened in, if I'm not mistaken, Paris.

I think you're right.

It happened in Paris.

I think you're right.

I think that's where it happened.

So now electric vehicles and those with large families requiring bigger cars are expected to maybe escape the increased fees.

But, you know, if you've got a big vehicle, size, weight, and motor is going to be taken into consideration, we're charging you more to park in the city.

Okay.

That's unreasonable.

They approved the measure, unanimous vote.

My favorite part of this is they hope that the fees will put a break on the increase and encourage the ownership of lighter vehicles.

SUVs in Paris have increased 60% over the last four years.

They've increased

60% over the last four years.

So apparently the Paris

Accord isn't there.

It's not really working.

Yeah, it doesn't work out.

But they want to focus on auto-obesity.

Not obesity.

Get it?

I do.

Not obesity.

I I do.

It's autobesity.

It's autobesity.

It's great.

Yeah, that's great.

Unbelievable.

It's coming to a city near you.

They're going to force you into it if you don't want it.

But apparently, 60% of the people, I mean, it's increased in Paris.

That's just incredible to me that they just.

So?

Yeah, we like the larger vehicles.

Okay.

Finally, and this is kind of good news.

I don't know if it's, I mean, you probably don't care about it, but OPIL is going to be available without a visit to the doctor now, Pat.

Opil?

Yeah, FDA finally approved its non-prescription use.

I don't know what that is.

It's birth control.

Oh, okay.

Yeah, I'm very excited about it.

Birth control.

That's really exciting.

You don't know what it is?

Opil?

I didn't know.

Wow.

I mean, it's...

I know what birth control is.

One of more than 100 countries now are offering over-the-counter birth controls.

Wow, really?

Yeah.

And we're going to do that here in the U.S.

now, too.

No age restrictions on the purchase of the product.

Perfect.

And they're probably going to hit the shelf next year.

So

good news.

Yeah.

Good news.

Good news.

Great news.

Number three in the Chewing the Fat 5.

For those of you that thought Disney may change its ways,

not so much again.

Bob Iger, whose deal originally slated him as CEO until the end of next year, 2024, just got a two-year extension.

And he's going to be CEO until at least the end of 2026.

Unanimous vote from the board.

Congratulations.

Well, he's done such a great job.

The last, is it seven movies or is it?

Yeah, I think it's the last seven movies they've done have lost $900 million.

So, yeah, he's doing a great

job.

Good we got him back.

He's taking things, taking the bull by the horns.

Doing a great job.

He said in an interview yesterday that he's considering selling some of the company's traditional TV assets.

Saw that.

ABC, FX.

Wow.

Hulu.

Okay.

Right?

Yep.

I mean, that would be all of them under the

umbrella, right?

Yeah.

Yeah.

So, I mean, you know, things are bad at Disney when they're talking about selling ABC.

They're starting to dump.

Right thing?

Yeah.

Jeez.

Holy cow.

I mean, I realize that the economy is faltering.

So, you know, they're, you know, the parks are

starting to dwindle.

Yeah.

But it would seem that perhaps

that it may have a little bit more to do with something else rather than the economy that the Disney model is down.

I don't know what that might be.

It might be.

Like, I don't know.

Bud Light comes to mind for some reason.

I don't know why.

That's weird, isn't it?

What does that have to do with Bud Light?

Bud Light.

I mean, I felt bad for him during the pandemic when they had to close everything because they had to shut down.

They had to shut down Disney World and Disneyland.

They shut down their cruises, their Disney cruises.

They stopped production on many movies because of the pandemic scare.

And so I thought, wow, that's too bad that they've had to shut down their.

I don't feel a bit bad for them on any level anymore.

Not even an inkling of sympathy for them.

That fight in Florida really hurt them.

Oh, it's

pathetic.

And they keep doing it too.

They still do the don't say game.

Don't say.

Don't say.

So stupid.

It's just amazing to me.

So we have Fat Five, number three.

We know that SpaceX is planning to increase its current satellite count from 4,000 to 30,000 in the next few years.

I keep hearing that, but then you hear how crowded it is up there.

Well, they're starting to, I mean, I've talked about it at length on Chewing the Fat about starting a space.

garbage company, a space drug company.

Yeah, because some of that stuff that's up there doesn't work anymore.

No,

it's a growing problem.

And the European Space Agency is currently, right now today, tracking 34,000 objects in space

bigger than 10 centimeters.

I don't know how big that is.

It could be a mile across or it could be 10 inches.

I don't know.

But if it's bigger than 10 centimeters, they classify that as space debris.

And they say that obviously the space debris that is in low Earth orbit will probably burn up in re-entry.

But anything in the higher altitudes, that could stay up there for hundreds of years.

It makes me wonder, why'd we get rid of the shuttle program?

Because it seems like the shuttle would have been perfect to clean that stuff up.

I know.

Doesn't it?

And they were already going up there taking the trash from the space station anyway.

Yeah.

What else are you going to do?

Pick up a couple of things.

I don't know why they trashed the shuttle program.

No idea.

It really was bizarre to me.

For now, we also know that SpaceX has been forced to perform more than 25,000 course corrections in the last six months to avoid collisions with other

spacecraft.

2,000 course corrections in the last six months.

Wow.

With other spacecraft or orbital debris.

So.

Wow.

If you add more satellites up there,

will that number go up as well?

I'm not good at math.

I'm just.

Yeah, it's tough to tell.

Just tough to tell.

You know, you also brought up something on SpaceX earlier this week.

on Pec Ray Unleashed, I believe.

And we were talking about the

Tesla car that he sent out.

Oh, yes.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Right.

And where that is.

Was it you that mentioned that?

Or was it Keith?

Maybe Keith mentioned that.

But it's,

or was it Chris?

I don't know.

Anyway, somebody on the show mentioned that.

Do you remember the Tesla that he

blasted into Superman?

I do remember the Tesla that he and I thought it was going to Mars, but it apparently missed Mars.

And now, yeah, it missed it.

And now it's 97 million miles from Earth

and it's headed back this way.

Oh, nice.

Yeah.

So it has exceeded the warranty ever so slightly, though.

It had a 36,000-mile warranty.

And now it's exceeded that.

I think maybe, and

I don't know.

I mean, I'm guessing that the owner of the car might not care.

Yeah, probably not.

The owner, of course, is Elon Musk,

and he sent one of his cars.

It was a pretty cool idea.

Yeah, it was.

It was really cool.

I remember watching it and having to shoot off and everything.

So it's on the way back now.

It's on the way back.

Yeah, but I think it's just going to continue to fly around.

I don't think it's coming back to Earth.

It's just on

the right, right?

It's headed toward the Sun.

And apparently, when it heads toward the Sun, it slows down.

It was going 6,000 miles an hour.

Now it's only going 3,000 miles an hour.

You just can't find good automobiles.

You can't.

You just can't, can you?

You can't find good automobiles anymore.

So if you're one of those people that sell the extended warranties, you might want to give Elon a call.

Absolutely.

They claim that these space collisions are pretty rare, I mean, relatively rare now.

I mean, we had the Chinese satellite smash into a rocket, right?

Yeah.

And then there's been a couple, I think, over the last few years.

But if we're going to add more up there, I mean, it's cool.

It's going to happen all the time.

It's a problem.

And we found out that the Starlink satellites, you know, those 4,000 or 5,000 that are up there already that are soon to be 30,000,

they're leaking.

They're leaking

what's called unintended

electromagnetic radiation.

Unintended.

Ooh, that's a matter of electromagnetic radiation is emanating from onboard electronics in the Starlink satellites.

So don't worry about it.

It's fine.

Everything's fine.

Okay.

They just looked at

the SpaceX satellites and they figure, yeah, the other satellite companies,

they probably have that same problem, but we just looked at the SpaceX ones for now.

Wow.

Okay.

All right.

Great.

Then we have the

Fat Five, number five, nominations for the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards were announced this week.

HBO dominating of the other outlets with 127 total nods.

Three shows, Succession, The Last of Us, and The White Lotus had combined for 74 of those 127.

Do you watch all those?

Yes.

And what a surprise.

Ted Lasso.

Why wouldn't you?

Why wouldn't you?

Ted Lasso on Apple TV Plus came in fourth with 21 nominations.

Oh, wow.

So now that

the Emmys are supposed to air in September, I don't think they will.

We've got the actor strike and the writer's strike in full motion.

This probably isn't going to happen.

Probably not.

I mean, all these shows are going to be going.

Have a nice day.

Everybody's striking, and it's going to be over.

Succession got 27, did I read?

27 nominations by itself?

Yes.

And you love that.

It was was awesome.

I've never seen that.

I've never seen it go.

It's kind of a big one.

Oh, it's done?

Yeah, this was the final season.

It's kind of a big guy show for you.

Is it?

It's a big guy.

You've got to be a certain tonnage to watch that.

Yes.

Like, how big do you have to be?

Four or five hundred pounds.

Wow.

No.

I mean,

look who you are.

And look how much you wish.

Okay.

Treval 8-727-BECK.

It's Pat and Jeffy for Glenn on the Glenn Peck program.

First, let me tell you about Mantis X.

I'm going to see how good of a shot I am.

I haven't shot a bullet out of my gun for probably

a year and a half, maybe two years, which is really not good, but I have been using Mantis X.

You know, it's incredibly expensive now to fire your gun.

Gee, I wonder why that is, government.

Mantis X is there.

It is a high-tech, easy-to-use system, widely used by the military, and helps improve your shooting quickly.

You attach it to your firearm, connect it with an app on your smartphone or your tablet via Bluetooth.

Then, whether you're firing actual rounds like I am today or dry firing practicing, it will give you instant feedback on what you're doing right and what you're doing wrong.

And more importantly, how to correct the technique.

Whatever it is you're doing wrong.

It is really amazing.

Oh, I'm just looking at Blaze TV and it's showing...

Oh, it's showing my scores.

Hmm.

It's like having a firearms instructor right in your front pocket.

It is going to save you you a ton of money.

Start improving today.

Mantisx.com.

That's mantisx.com.

The Glenn Beck program.

It's Pat and Jeffy for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

Glenn's back on Monday.

He's in Iowa today, and they're doing the big thing with Tucker Carlson, which should be really cool.

I'm looking forward to it, actually.

I really am too.

I'm concerned.

I want to hear some legitimate answers to Ukraine.

Yes, please.

Yeah, I think that's number one.

My number one issue right now is Ukraine, and then

we can move on to immigration and climate change and all that other stuff.

Spending.

Oh, wow.

Do you know they increased the deficit deficit $1 trillion

in a week?

So here's the great thing about the United States of America.

From George Washington to Ronald Reagan,

it took to

get a trillion dollars in debt.

Because those guys didn't know what they were doing.

Washington.

They were telling me.

To Reagan.

Yeah, they didn't know how to spend money, these people.

Stupid.

Like, you can't believe stupid.

So from Washington to Reagan, our first trillion.

Okay.

This last week, we spent another trillion.

And, of course, it's not our second trillion.

It's our 32nd or 33rd trillion.

I mean, we have.

Eventually, it's going to add up to some real money.

Someday you're going to get to somebody else.

Someday it's going to be a problem.

Not today, of course.

It's not a problem.

We have not shut off the printing machine.

No.

Printing press, man.

Nope.

And it just devalues everything more.

Maybe we have shut off the printing press, and it's just digital money now.

So nobody cares.

Yeah, that could be.

Nobody cares.

That could be.

Hey, the machine broke down.

But I think you're right.

I think the main issue might be Ukraine really.

It certainly is for me, man.

Especially since they just, they're sending 3,000 more to Europe.

I'd like to have someone talk peace.

Yeah.

And maybe that happened, please.

And Trump says he'll do it in.

He's continuing to hammer war.

He'll do it the first day, I think he said.

Okay.

Be great with that.

It'd be interesting to see how many of these guys agree with that because I don't.

Nikki Haley.

Pence doesn't.

Nikki Haley certainly doesn't.

I think DeSantis is not in favor of what we're doing in Europe.

No, he's not.

I mean, he was in the military, so he actually served and was over in Iraq, I believe.

Vivek Ramashwami is pretty much against what's going on.

Mike Pence, I think, is for it.

Of course he is.

Yeah, he's more of a hot.

Of course he is.

Now, I don't know where Tim Scott and Asa Hutchinson stand.

I apologize for not knowing Asa's stand.

I try to keep up on everything, you know, all Asa Hutchinson policy positions, but somehow I'm not up on that one for some reason.

But I take my apology back because you don't know either.

All right.

Well, have a great weekend.

Glenn will be back on Monday.

Tune in for Pac Ray Unleashed on Monday as well.

Oh, and if you want some cookies over the weekend, you might go to kexi.com.

Delicious delicious cookies available there.
