Hey, let me tell you about American financing.

You may not think it's a good time to buy a house, and maybe it isn't in your situation, but I will tell you now is a good time to get out of your high-interest credit cards.

The Fed just raised the rates yesterday.

Everybody on Wall Street is like, woo, now it's over.

Now they're going to get inflation under control.

I will tell you that the rates on your credit card, probably about 19% right now, are going to go up.

They're going to go through the roof, and you don't want them.

Please

consider

a consolidation loan where you take all those credit cards and you apply it to the value of your house while your house still has this value.

You've probably gained 20% equity in your house.

American Financing can help

you understand this and guide you through it and make it really simple.

They work for you.

American Financing: 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together if the corners survive.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

It's a new day I'm turned to rise.

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

This is the Glenback program.

Oh my, oh my gosh.

I, what am I gonna do?

Have we slipped through a wormhole?

I mean, okay,

I didn't start, I don't know about you, but I didn't start in

this version of the universe.

In my universe where I was born, things made sense.

And then I slipped through a wormhole and I went into a country and a universe where it was like, oh my gosh, everybody is insane.

Everything I thought to be true is just like, it's not.

And it happened overnight.

So that's why I know I slipped through a wormhole.

But I think I just did it again.

Because in the last version of this country that I was in, it was so weird.

Gavin Newsom was like, hey,

you know,

that's a woman.

You've got it.

No, it's a dude, I was thinking, but I didn't realize I was in a in another universe, a parallel universe.

This morning I get up, and Gavin Newsom is now saying,

could we just play this?

It might bet not be shocking to you, but I slipped through a wormhole and it's weird.

Listen to this.

Tell, they don't even believe in climate science.

Talk to me about being pro-life.

Spare me.

Your body, your choice.

It's a hell of a moment to live in.

Right.

But like you say, we will not be defeated.

We will stand tall.

We will stand firm.

And we will affirm

that it's a lot of the currently constitutionally protected rights of women and girls, their reproductive rights and freedoms in California.

Right.

What, do we not get it?

He goes on to say that, quote, if men could get pregnant, this wouldn't even be a conversation.

Just yesterday, I was in this place where men could be pregnant.

I got to relearn everything again.

Relief factor.

I I used to suffer from horrible pain all the time.

That was a different me in a different universe.

In that universe, I wasn't using Relief Factor.

Oh, man, I wish I could go back and talk to that guy, right?

The three-week quick start developed for you is $19.95.

It's a dollar a day like a trial pack.

Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor.

70% of them go on to order more.

That says a lot.

ReliefFactor.com.

Call 800 for Relief.

800 for Relief.

Get the 1995 three-week quick start again at relief factor.com, relief factor.com or 800, the number four relief.

Relief Factor, feel the difference.

Oh my goodness.

I don't know what to do because yesterday there was another signal that I'm in a place I don't recognize.

Some sort of parallel universe.

I'm listening to the president and he's saying, hey, we've reduced the deficit and I've reduced it 350 billion in my first year in office.

Okay, okay.

So is this president reducing the deficit?

I mean, is this a good thing?

And then I realized, no, that's just a wordplay.

I didn't slip through a wormhole.

That's just him comparing what he's done to the worst year in American history for deficits.

So it's like,

I couldn't think of anything else I could do to spend money.

It's a pretty fancy trick.

You make everybody stay home and not go to work, and then say you've lowered the deficit when they go back.

Right.

That's that's wow, that's what an impressive job you did when you were all arguing for no one to have jobs.

And now you can sit back and say, oh, well, now that people are back to work, things are slightly better.

Right.

Congratulations.

Right.

And then, and then yesterday, I hear my orchestra say, no, this administration's policies didn't cause border migration.

And I'm thinking to myself,

so is it a coincidence that all of a sudden it gets really bad?

I mean, how do you explain that?

And then I realized, we don't explain anything in this universe.

Logic?

What's that?

I'm sorry if I'm using that and you didn't slip through the wormhole with the rest of us.

I'll explain logic some other time.

And then the head of the Fed, where I come from, the head of the Fed, his main job is to keep inflation under control.

You know what I mean?

But apparently not in this one.

It's crazy.

You really should visit my universe.

It's so much easier.

It really is.

Anyway, so the head of the Fed here in your universe, he came out yesterday and he said, the economy is actually doing quite well.

And then I realized, you people believe it.

See, where I come from, we wouldn't have believed any of that.

But there's a few of us, I'm sure.

I'm sure there's a few of us out there that are like, No, Glenn, I was in the same wormhole.

I woke up in an America I didn't even recognize, and I thought it was just America.

Then I realized it's the whole freaking world.

And I'm like, Yeah, yeah, I understand, brother.

I understand.

But did we slip in yet a crazier universe

when President Biden said this about the GOP yesterday?

What are the next things that are going to be attacked?

Because this MAGA crowd is really the most extreme political organization that's existed in American history.

In American history?

I mean, that would include the Klan.

Maybe you guys didn't have that here.

Where I come from, the Klan was an organization started by the Democratic Party.

I know it's crazy, right?

It probably didn't happen here,

but we had one, and people were like, that didn't start with the Democratic Party.

No, no, no, I have the documents right across the yard.

Well, I used to yesterday.

I don't know if they're still in that vault

because I don't know.

Did I start that thing, you know, collecting American history here in this universe?

I don't know.

Gosh, I wonder who I'm married to.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I bet it's Blake Lively, right?

Sure it is.

Anyway,

so here's the thing.

It was started by the Democratic Party,

and it was to stop white people and black people

from pushing for a vote and a voice for black people.

Isn't that weird?

Because that would be a political organization that was extreme.

Because,

you know, they were hanging people

from trees.

And I don't mean legally either.

Their only crime was they thought black people should have a vote.

So that was pretty extreme, you know.

But maybe it's just me.

Where I come from, we have this group called NTFA.

And the Black Bloc.

Oh, man, you want to talk about extremists.

They want

They want to destroy

all of society.

They don't believe

in freedom, really.

It's kind of like the Nazi Party,

you know, where the Nazis were like, we're against the communists because they want slavery.

And then the communists were like, we're against the Nazis because they're crazy.

We'll kill people in camps.

And they both did the same thing.

It's kind of like that.

In fact, it's

like that.

In fact, Antifa were the people that were saying that about the Nazis and the communists.

You know, they were like, we're communists.

We don't like these fascists.

It was them.

That's when they started Antifa, you know, and then you had Black Lives Matter, at least in my universe.

That was pretty radical.

I mean, in my universe, maybe you don't remember this.

It didn't happen.

Thank goodness if it didn't happen in your universe.

But they burned the country almost to the ground over a summer.

No, it wasn't like a week-long thing.

It happened the entire summer.

And in my universe, the Democratic Party,

they were so radical, they were actually bailing these people out of jail.

And then there was this guy, George Soros, who was who was getting people, you know, and putting them into positions of like the district attorney.

And those district attorneys wouldn't prosecute anybody.

And they were all Democrats.

It was so extreme and so weird.

Again, not my original universe, because in my original universe, again,

the government would have said, I don't care who you are or why you're rioting, you can't burn cities down and they all would have gone to jail whether they were white black left right didn't matter in my universe

so

you know who's also kind of extreme uh the black hebrew israelites

yeah

right

really extreme or the weather underground did you guys have that or do you only have the weather channel

Because the weather underground was crazy.

Or the May 19th Communist Organization.

Or, or, or, or.

Now, maybe here,

Louis Farrakhan is like, I don't know, a scientist or something.

I don't know.

I just got here apparently last night.

But in my universe, the guy is a crazy terrorist.

Okay, the guy is nuts.

Big following.

Very extreme.

Very political.

In fact, the last universe I was in, wow, this is weird.

The same people that were bailing people out for BLM, you know, that thing that started all the fires in my universe,

they also, like, lock arms with Louis Farrakhan.

So that's really weird.

Do you guys have Twitter here?

Ah, that's another story.

It's crazy.

How about the Black Panthers?

They were pretty bad.

You know what I'm saying?

They were pretty darn bad.

Maybe you don't have them.

Or ELF or ALF?

Animal Liberation Front.

We had that.

The Communist Party USA.

That's a pretty bad extremist organization.

Let me tell you something.

Let me tell you something.

This is so crazy.

And you may not understand it because you're apparently from this, unless we all slipped through a wormhole last night.

But

it's crazy because where I come from,

when you're standing up for a thing, I don't know if you have it here, it doesn't appear so.

We have something called the Constitution.

And what that entails is a bill of rights.

And so everybody has the same right.

You know what I mean?

And they don't even come from the government.

They come from...

Do you guys have God here?

Again, it doesn't seem like it, but let me explain God at another time.

But we have a God that gives us rights and the government has nothing to do with it.

In fact, the Constitution says the government cannot do anything to harm these rights.

Okay.

It's a crazy idea.

You should look it up.

I don't know.

Maybe it'll be in a sci-fi book or something.

I don't know.

But

we have these rights.

And then these people.

They're mainly people that don't want anybody to have rights because they think they know best.

I know it's crazy.

And they're usually, you know, like, follow the science, but they don't even do science, you know, they don't even, it's like these people had never even read.

And

they, you know, and then and then they're like, we've got to save the earth from people.

And they look at people like people are a disease,

you know, and they're like, this is the biggest problem.

We wouldn't have problems with people if we just didn't have people, you know, and they don't recognize their people too

oh crap are those people here too

wow well in my universe the ones who support the Constitution they're not extremists hmm

when you say everybody should have the right to speak out everybody should have the right to you know, follow their own

internal dictates, you know, they should be able to go and we call it pursue your own happiness.

I know it's complex,

but we believe in that where I come from.

And those people weren't ever called extremists.

It was the people that wanted to destroy all of that that our president would have said is an extremist.

You know, but people standing up for the things that everybody believed, in fact, changed the entire world for the better you know those people were just called normal

it was the people who wanted to destroy all of that and the rights and say like

you ready for this one oh crap i bet you have do you have them here because they were in the last universe people were like men can have babies

You don't have that because no, you don't have that because I just heard Gavin Newsom and he just said, you know, men can't have babies.

So it's

relax a little bit because at least this universe is not as crazy as the one I was in yesterday.

All right.

But those were the people that would be called extreme.

You know, people are like, there's no difference between a man and a woman.

I can't define what a woman is because I can, you know.

And what's crazy is I grew up around like 300 million people just in

own country that were like, Yeah, that's a woman.

Yeah, uh, see her over there?

That's a her.

See that over there?

That's a dude.

Even when the dude was wearing makeup and stuff, you could still go, That's a dude,

or

that's a

dude, but she makes a fine-looking woman.

You know what I mean?

We could do that

and not be called extremist.

Well,

good news is,

even in this universe,

nobody's spying on you.

You know, the government's not tracking your every move or,

you know.

And you still do have freedom of.

You know, I better check into this universe before I say anymore.

Let me tell you now about the Tuttle Twins.

What truly motivates our kids?

They're growing up in a world we help shape for them.

No, I did not shape this world.

Uh-uh.

I don't think so.

All sorts of different opportunities are opening themselves up to them.

Do they have just the tolerance for risk?

What is their risk tolerance?

That is the biggest thing to being able to live in a free society.

Otherwise, I got to have somebody protect me.

I got to, oh, I can't do that.

It's too risky.

It might hurt.

I might fall down and get a boo-boo.

You need to make sure your kids don't fear risk.

You know what?

What am I saying?

Now, maybe you don't have it here, but back in the universe I came from just a little while ago, kids were like, I'm not risk averse.

I'll eat.

I'll eat tide.

Oh, man.

So there is something to be said with crazy risks and then teaching your children not that kind of risk kids.

In fact, the Tuttle Twins now have a magazine out.

You get access to this magazine at a reduced price, $49 for the entire year.

It'll inspire your kids.

Give them examples of other kids doing great things, like not trying to eat

a Tide Pod.

You know what I'm saying?

You know, things that are good.

TuttleTwinsbeck.com.

Get the magazine $49.

12 months.

TuttleTwinsbeck.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

Oh my gosh.

Holy cow.

Oh, this was shocking.

I just looked over

and

I don't know if I need to introduce myself.

I may be a foreign traveler, but you look just like my executive producer in the universe I was in.

What was his name?

Stu.

Oh, I'm Steve.

Yeah, but it's good to meet you.

He ate a lot of meat.

Oh, yeah.

No, it's definitely a different universe.

Yeah, we're in a weird one here.

Yeah.

Okay, it's a weird one.

You're a vegetarian?

Yeah, crazy.

Oh, I can't wait to tell Stu about that when I get back, if I ever get back.

You won't.

Just so you're aware, you're stuck in this one forever.

Really?

Yeah,

it is a weird universe because I really was told over and over again, the thing that Gavin Newsom said, for example,

that men can't get pregnant is the thing that gets you kicked off of social media.

That's weird.

That's what I thought happened.

That is weird.

That's what I think the Babylon Bee thought

is what happened, right?

That's what I think Elon Musk thought

is what happened.

That's why he spent $44 billion to stop it from happening, partially.

You have Elon Musk?

Because our Elon Musk is evil.

He went dark.

Oh, really?

Oh, he went really dark.

He started building missiles.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

Okay, this is definitely a different parallel.

He bought Facebook and then bought a cat and was always seen with his cat on his lap, petting the cat, and then he built missiles.

I don't want to go any further because I...

You got a good Elon Musk here, I'm assuming.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

Well, I think so.

It's just a bizarre.

Like, how do they...

The lack of self-awareness is really amazing.

You know,

you mentioned, I think, this story yesterday where it's advice that's saying, hey, look, if this abortion thing goes away, just use horse pills.

And it's like, wait, what?

I know.

You guys are.

Weren't you guys the people telling us that the horse dewormer was the craziest idea in the world?

These people are actually going to vets

to get something that is a dewormer for horses.

Now, listen, this is very dangerous.

We should silence all these people.

You can't just take horse medicine.

And now it wasn't some guy that said it.

It was Vox.

Vox.

Vox or Vice?

I thought it was Vice, but it was one of the Vice.

It might be Vice.

They were the ones that were.

Like, here's how you do it.

Just go to the vet, and then you're going to have to add a little corn syrup to it and press it into a pill.

What are you.

Bizarre damage.

No short-term memory.

None.

Listen, it's a day for you to call in.

I especially want to talk to fellow travelers.

Anyone who feels like they

slipped through a wormhole, call us now.

Your phone calls next.

888-727-BECK, today is your day to

tell us what's going on.

I would like to hear

these extremist views because,

hang on, I'm just checking with my executive producer.

In the universe I was in yesterday,

this was a conservative talk show.

Still?

In this one?

Yes.

Okay.

Yes.

Okay.

And the audience is conservative.

All that means.

The audience filled with liberals.

Filled with liberals.

Okay.

Well, I would like to hear if there are any conservatives

what those extreme views are that you are pushing for.

Because the president said yesterday that the GOP is so radical.

Radical.

Now, I think radical is, for instance,

the

people who are now on the left sending people to the justices' homes, putting out their address and saying, go to their homes for a protest.

I think that's radical, you know,

but I want to hear your radical views.

What is it that the GOP should be pushing for in your radical view?

Don't tell me it's like radical things like shut down the Department of Ed.

Right?

I mean, that's so crazy.

So crazy.

Hey,

we should actually live by the Constitution and not spy on people or have warrantless wiretaps or anything like that.

You guys aren't for that, are you?

By the way, again, another sign I'm

in another universe.

Dave Portnoy vows to vote Democrat if Roe versus Wade is overturned.

Where I come from,

conservatives would go,

and

haven't really been counting on him.

He

interviewed President Trump, seemed to be somewhat of a Trump supporter at times.

Seems to be kind of conservative occasionally.

You didn't slip through the wormhole with me last night.

Was he like Rush Limbaugh?

Was he a big

conservative thinker?

I would not say that.

No.

He was just somebody that, because where I come from, he was just somebody who was like, because where I come from, conservatives are so desperate for anybody to be on their side.

Okay.

That if they're like, hey, you know, I liked family ties.

Oh, that had a conservative in it.

I love you.

I love you.

That is definitely in this universe.

In this universe, too.

I think, though, with Dave, he's like two abortions away from getting a free one.

Yeah.

So I think,

I mean, he's basically best known for having sex with 21-year-olds over and over again.

So I don't think that Dave is going to be the leader on the pro-life movement.

He might be somebody who's like, I just want to keep my options open.

This might come in handy for me.

Yeah.

Again, I like Dave generally, but I don't think this is going to be his strongest conservative.

Let's go to Craig in Texas.

Hello, Craig.

Hey, good morning, Glenn.

Hey, you are still Glenn, right?

Yeah, I am.

I am.

Are you a fellow traveler?

Does this world make sense to you?

I am.

Yes.

Yes, I am.

I snuck in right behind you, though.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Hey, hey, Glenn, you know, in my universe yesterday,

I think even Glenn Beck then might have had a perspective that may not have been fully in line with what's really, really, really happening.

What was it?

What was it?

It had to do with this Middle Eastern or this European war.

And the Glenn Beck I used to know had these big, big whiteboards that he put all the corruption up there and everything going on.

Yeah, see, because

I came from the universe where it was a blackboard, so it was a little different.

Oh, go ahead.

Yeah, go ahead.

Go ahead.

Everyone's just coming to this universe in different places.

And then he kind of took the default position, kind of aligning with Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats and Soros and stuff like that.

And and maybe didn't step back and take a bigger perspective on things.

And also, here's my crazy conclusion.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

So, what was my opinion yesterday that aligned with Nancy Pelosi?

That Ukraine good, Russia bad.

You are hearing what you apparently want to hear.

That's not been my position.

It is not my position.

In fact, I had a whole monologue ready yesterday that if I have time, I'll do it today, where I have, in fact, let me just pull it up here.

And I was going to use it yesterday and didn't get time for it.

It was all of the people,

Nancy Pelosi, and all of the people over in Ukraine saying crazy things like, we're in it to win it.

I think that is wildly irresponsible.

Craig, was this a really clever call in your other universe?

No, no.

Oh.

What led you to believe?

Like you think it is.

Yeah, what led you to believe that I was

for

all in?

Again, there hasn't been any discussion about the bio labs that I've heard at least.

You haven't been listening the whole time.

Well, I can't listen all the time.

No, I know.

I know.

So don't assume that we haven't done something because you haven't heard it.

I'm just saying that.

And I say it politely and nicely to you.

I don't, but

I also believe, here's my final crazy conspiracy theory is that President Trump did something before he left office called devolution.

And I think your research team really needs to take a look at it.

Devolution.

We got it.

We're looking into it.

I can't wait.

Thank you very much.

I can't wait to get.

Hopefully he can program the show in the next universe we go to.

Why are you so hostile?

Hostile?

I'm not, well, maybe a little bit.

I just, this is, it's exactly what you just pointed out.

I mean, you know, I don't listen to the show at all, but why are you doing the things on the show that I want?

Well, yeah, no, no, listen.

What are we supposed to do?

We're supposed to program it for people who don't listen.

Okay,

it's difficult to do that.

How could we possibly understand what you may or may not want when you don't actually pay attention?

I was just in a meeting yesterday, and

I get a briefing every morning.

What's in that?

About 50 stories, would you say, Stu?

Yeah, at least.

And it's all of my producers, all of my contributors, me, Stu, everybody.

And we scour the internet for a 24-hour period, 21 hours after the show, and we put it together.

And I get it about 4.30 in the morning.

And that's the first thing I do is read that.

And then I select from there a rough, these are the things I want to talk about.

These are the things that we need more investigation on, et cetera, et cetera.

Then I come in and I'm usually here by 6 a.m.

and I spend at least two hours going over that list again and paring it down.

Today, out of the 50, I probably have 10 stories.

And I was just meeting with somebody yesterday and I said,

I think we should release this.

For people who want to

read what I'm reading, but you have to be an adult and know that all of it is, some of it's raw data.

Some of it is just, you know, I don't know.

A producer saw this story on uh devolution

and should we look into it okay i don't know if that's right i don't know where i am in the it's where i found um p-ads

uh and i don't understand it but we're looking into it i don't know if it's right or not

but we've been talking about

Can we release that for smart people who can actually

not just jump off a roof and see what I'm looking at and see where we're headed and possibly add to it in their life or in our

work.

And I think that's important because there's so much that we don't talk about on this program because I only have three hours.

That used to be, do you remember in the day, Stu, when it was like, do you remember when we were at ABC?

It was like our first or second show at WABC.

and uh

I had to do four hours and I thought I was only scheduled for three

and I

ended up you remember how the show ended like the last four minutes what did what did I do I believe you read from a book that you had been reading on the train right like just word for word just read and had nothing to do with anything I was just completely out well and the phones went out too yeah because you were like oh well let's do some extra phones and then the phones went out and we had burned through all of our material yeah and this is just when you had it started.

So you were not, I mean, honestly, good enough at that point to be able to fill.

Still not.

Yeah.

And then you went on

the air and just started reading whatever book you were reading on the train.

And then at the end, you're just like, and I think you understand what that means.

We'll see you next time.

And it meant nothing.

Nothing.

Anyway,

now I could honestly fill

probably eight hours, nine hours every day just going over the news and talking about it.

Oh, yeah.

So.

But I mean, look, we had

the conservative movement has been working on Roe versus Wade for 50 years, and there was a leak this week that it looks like it may be overturned.

I'm sorry we didn't get to your pet story today.

No, that's a longer-term story.

But anyway.

Yeah, it might be.

But like, again, like, we've spent weeks and weeks and weeks talking about Ukraine and Russia.

And while, And I will tell you, the main story I sent in today for consideration, and I don't even know if it made the last 10 lists, go for it, but was a story about how I find it to be incredibly troubling and concerning that we are providing intelligence.

Yes.

I didn't know you were the one who sent that in, but I couldn't wait to talk to you about it.

We're not going to get to it today, but we are now.

But I couldn't wait to show you that article because I was like, Stu, this is exactly what we've been talking about.

This is exactly what we're talking about.

We are providing intelligence to Ukrainians to target Russian general in real time.

And we're announcing it.

Well, and this one,

it's in the newspaper.

Yeah.

And obviously it's been confirmed through sources.

You know, our official response was, well, we don't get into that, which is better than their normal response, which is, yes, we did it.

Here's a big

press conference to celebrate how we're sending weapons over there.

But there is a, like there's a line, right?

Like if you believe, you know, that we're going to send

weapons to Ukraine for them to defend themselves against an invader, that is one line.

There is another line when you are providing real-time intelligence to target individual members of the leadership of the Russian military.

Hey, they're on Maple and Elm right now.

Fire.

What's the difference between this and us in a war?

It's just us pressing the button.

It's the only difference.

So that was a big part of what we wanted to talk about today, how that is going down a road that I don't know how it doesn't end in an escalated face.

Yesterday, I'm worried about it.

And yesterday, remember, I had Jack Carr on and I said, the fiction writer.

And I said,

this is a real problem, Jack.

I don't know.

I don't have anything to pin on except a lot of things that lead me to believe there's something else going on.

It's almost as if our administration wants this war.

And if you missed yesterday's podcast, go back and listen to the part with Jack Carr.

He was in the third hour.

It was incredible.

He gave information I've never heard.

You know, I've heard that they're having a hard time, you know, replacing the soldiers that have died.

They don't have any soldiers.

One of the reasons why they went in, and this is well known to our Pentagon, is because they need young people.

Everybody's an alcoholic and, you know, over 50.

And the next step for Russia, if this gets worse, is they go, they're going to have to start drafting people up to 50 years old.

They don't have an army anymore.

And I'm sorry, but I just don't.

There's something wrong here.

There's something wrong.

I pray that I'm wrong.

But the worst thing we can do is to get into it.

Why am I saying that?

Now I'm saying this just for this one listener who's like, why do you love Putin?

You didn't say you weren't making out with him last week.

Wait a minute.

You didn't.

You never.

Hey, let me tell you about rough greens.

If your dog is a health nut, get rid of him.

Seriously, get rid of that dog.

There's no dog that should be a health nut.

Anyway, my dog doesn't have any say in it.

He doesn't.

I give him the food and then he eats it or he doesn't eat it.

Now, we've tried a million different dog foods to get him to eat.

He just didn't like any of them.

So didn't know what to do because he can't talk.

Then I met a

doctor, a vet, and he said, is your dog

licking his paws?

And I'm like, yeah, well, he needs this.

Is he doing this?

Yeah, he needs this.

Go look at his poop in the yard.

Okay, I think we've gone too far now.

Okay.

But I did.

Anyway, I started this, the guy who actually started Rough Greens and he said, give this to your dog.

If he'll eat it, you're going to see a huge change in your dog.

And I have.

And if he'll eat it, he loves it.

He snarfs it.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

We're going to take your phone calls, more of your phone calls coming up in just a minute, 888-727-B-E-C-K.

Also, I want to talk to you a little bit about what's happening with diesel fuel.

You know, if you've ever been up to New York, you'll look over to New Jersey and you're like, what a hellhole that is.

And one of the reasons is because it's just oil tanks everywhere.

You know, those huge tanks.

The diesel fuel and jet fuel almost empty now.

Almost

empty.

We have a severe problem, America, with diesel fuel, and you should probably plan for this.

I don't know exactly how to plan for it, but food,

energy, it's going to be a problem.

Getting things to the shelves is going to be a problem.

Diesel is up again today.

Well, what they're saying, too, is what's happening is that India is now buying all of the Russian oil or a lot of it at steep, steep discounts.

And then they're refining it into diesel and jet fuel and then selling it to everyone else anyway.

So like all the people who are like, oh, we're betting Russian oil are winding up buying it through India in a refined fashion anyway.

No, I'd rather have India get that

profit than

yeah, sure.

Yeah.

I mean, but it's just amazing

how this winds up.

It's almost impossible to.

There's only a few places that have it.

Yeah, yeah.

You know, the United States has the largest deposit in the world, but why talk about that?

Back in a minute.

This is the Glenn Back program.

Was that a guy's real hat?

Do we know?

Was that a

picture he turned in?

Like, let me wear this hat and look surprised.

I will say this.

You will not find that hat on gripsics.com.

That is not a hat that they sell.

It's not a hat that they will ever sell.

Gripsics.com slash do is the place to go to get the best belts, wallets,

socks, great products made in America from a small company in Utah that sells not only all over the United States, but all over the world.

People want this stuff, but it's all sourced right here in America.

A lot of companies tell you that it can't be done.

Well, Grip6 has figured out a way to do it.

They're really cool, stylish belts,

really cool wallets as well.

Socks that are really warm, but not ultra thick.

And

even the wool they use is sourced in America, which is really difficult for a lot of companies to pull off.

But GripSix has done it.

They love this country and they make great stuff.

You should support them.

We gotta stand together, it's the chorus of night.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

It's a new day of time to rise.

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

It is.

This is the Glenbeck Program.

Oh, you're going to get heavy doses of both today.

Welcome to the Glenbeck Program.

It's Thursday.

Today is a National Day of Prayer.

We have a lot to be grateful for.

One of the biggest problems in America is we're not grateful for anything.

Today is a National Day of Prayer, a day that we should reflect on all of the things we've been blessed by.

Even the worst of us, the worst of us, the people that are, and I mean that as the poorest among us here in America,

the poorest among us are still living a better life than those in Europe besides, you know, the king and the queen.

We have been so greatly blessed to be born at this time

with what we're facing and to be equipped with everything that we need because we are

maybe we should recognize that today

and the national day of prayer

you're one of the millions of americans who are living their lives in frequent and also just debilitating pain

maybe this is an answer to your prayer just make it stop 70 of the people who take relief factor and just try it for three weeks go on to order more month after month now this is and this is why i didn't think it would work it works on inflammation oh shut up

ibuprofen 800 that should do the number that won't do squat for me

but Relief Factor is different because ibuprofen only goes after your inflation in one way.

Relief Factor attacks inflammation four different ways.

Instead of just picking one, they said, let's try them all.

And that's why I think it works for me.

70% of the people who try it find relief.

Please, just try it.

Might be an answer to your prayers.

ReliefFactor.com.

ReliefFactor.com.

Call 800, the number 4, relief, 8004 relief, or relief factor.com.

Feel the difference.

So Governor Tate Reeves, he was on the TV show last night with me.

He is the governor of Mississippi.

That is the state that filed the court case.

He was asking, the state was asking for 15 weeks.

Nothing, no abortion after 15 weeks.

The abortion zealots went crazy.

That's outrageous.

How could you possibly, by the way, so you know, France

is at 14 weeks.

So Mississippi would be less conservative than France.

And most of Europe.

Most of Europe is like 14 to 12 weeks, okay?

Yep.

And the overwhelming majority of the American people oppose abortion at 15 weeks.

Yes.

And it's really interesting.

You will read things from like the New York Times, and they're not lying.

See, there are different kinds of lies.

One is just an open, flat-out lie.

They know they're lying.

It's clear they're lying.

And what they're saying is not true.

And then there's the lies of omission.

And so today in the New York Times, the lie was 65% of Americans

say abortion should be legal.

Yeah, they say Roe versus they don't want Roe versus Wade overturned.

Correct.

They want it to be legal.

Well, yes, but with restrictions.

And more restrictions than we have today.

That's an important part of this.

So, I mean, where is this debate supposedly living, right?

They want it to move toward what you would say is the conservative position.

And the conservative position, which is constantly maligned, is much more sane and much more in line with the American people than the

liberal position.

And by the way,

so far, the conservative movements from states have been in line, in fact, more radical

than France.

Okay, think of that.

More radical than France.

Okay, so anyway, the governor signed a proclamation on April 25th, and he said, Our nation and our people have been blessed by the Lord with tremendous freedom and prosperity.

In recognition of this, I proclaim May 5th as a day of prayer.

I hope you join me in giving thanks to God and praying for peace for our nation, our neighbors, and our world.

I can't tell you enough how important

fasting,

humility, and prayer is.

We were losing the Civil War.

We were losing to the South.

In fact, we were getting creamed by the South.

And it drove Abraham Lincoln to his knees.

And he just begged, okay, what do you want?

And it came to him, the only thing, even if we have to burn the entire country to the ground,

the only thing that matters is the end of slavery.

He got it.

And he put into place the Emancipation Proclamation.

He declared that this war was a righteous war because it was about freedom.

And then he issued a proclamation of fast, prayer, and humiliation.

It's a remarkable document.

You just look for Abraham Lincoln Civil War proclamation.

It was passed by the Senate, and people actually did it.

And because we dedicated ourselves to things that are universally true and said, I don't care about winning, even if everything is destroyed,

This is an eternal goal.

That's what's made the difference in our country's history.

And it is time that we humble ourselves.

When, you know, I've got a story next hour about Levi's.

Levi's is lecturing us about

workers' rights.

But I've got the stats on Levi's.

How you making that with all of those employees you have in China?

Why is it that all of these people

refuse to look at the business they're doing in dictatorial regimes that are enslaving people?

They participate gladly,

and then they lecture us.

Now, I'm sorry.

I'm one for taking the beam out of your own eye first,

but

that would be Levi's saying we cannot do business with countries that enslave enslave their workers.

What do you say?

Humiliation is what we do when we can reflect, realize that nothing we have done, nothing that we have gained

came from us.

My entire first half of my career was built by me.

And I know it because it wasn't very successful.

And it wasn't until I completely surrendered and went, geez, I don't know my butt from my elbow.

I don't know anything.

And I've screwed everything up in my life and I just, I'll do it your way, whatever you want.

And I don't care if it means I live under a bridge.

I'll do whatever you ask me to do.

That's when my life changed.

And not just success, but happiness.

We have every

earthly reason to be happy in America.

We should be the happiest, most non-suicidal people on the planet.

And yet, for some reason, we're not.

Perhaps we're worshiping the wrong God.

All right, let me go to Jay in West Virginia.

Today is the day of the week that you can call in and talk about anything.

Jay, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Hey, thanks for putting me on, Glenn.

You bet.

So you were talking about parallel universes and time warps, that sort of thing.

Yes.

I've kind of gone through some of that myself.

I was living in China for a number of years, and I guess after the lockdowns and everything, we decided it was a good idea to move back to the United States.

And I just remember thinking, I can't wait until I can get on the internet and speak my mind, you know, whatever it is, because I, you know, certainly couldn't do that in China.

And I come back to the United States, and I can't.

How weird is it?

When did you leave the United States to go live in China?

Oh, gosh.

I've been going to China off and on for a long time.

I'd actually gone over there originally in 2007, but it was about 2015 when I went over there permanently and started living over there.

It's like a completely different world since then.

I don't know what happened to the United States I left behind, but coming back has been quite a shock.

So tell me about China.

Well, China here is the new model.

So tell me what life is like over in China.

Well, at first, you know,

it was just fine.

I mean, you kind of know what you're not supposed to say.

I'd had a friend that had told me to, you know, start like, oh, you need to help people that are coming over here because he'd been ripped off.

So I get on and I start

telling people on the internet, you know, some ideas of how to avoid being ripped off.

And we'd started a business.

It's actually surprisingly easy to start a business over there.

At least it was.

Things have kind of been, the government's been tightening things down a bit

not quite the same now but I always thought you know going over there oh America you know this is the best place for business and I think it probably still is it just for whatever reason was a lot easier for us over there it's just you have to be careful I remember when the the pandemic started is when I really started to notice the big differences you know not only that we got locked down, they had these loudspeakers that were blasting out this message about if you spread misinformation, you know, and I remember thinking when I heard that, like, that's crazy.

I, you know, if I spread rumors or misinformation, I'm going to get fined or jailed.

And

here we are.

Yeah, they're saying the exact same things.

Yeah, sorry, sorry, Jay.

Maybe you can help bring the spark back to us and remind us.

Thank you for your phone call.

Right now, yesterday, the president called us extremists, said the GOP is the most extreme political organization in our history.

Well, that's forgetting about the Democrats' little organization called the Klan.

And when you talk about the things we've warned about and all been concerned about together over the past few years, that the government would figure out a way to say, well, you know, maybe just basic conservative beliefs are extreme.

Yeah.

Well, here they are telling you in advance that they consider Republicans to be the most extreme party in the history of our nation.

So, when they do put these restrictions in, who are they going to apply them to?

So, I want to ask you,

because he describes another group of conservatives that I don't recognize, because I know

my views are: can we return to common sense and can we return to the Constitution?

That's what I want.

Catherine in New York, you're a radical extremist.

Why?

Well, here, hi, Glenn.

Hi.

My radical, I am so extreme.

I want the government to work the way it's supposed to.

I want the Constitution to work the way it is supposed to and the way it was intended.

And I am so sick of these leftists.

Every day there's something new that they just keep trying to push on us, push on us, and push on us.

I just want,

we can't give up.

We just cannot give up.

We got to be stronger than them because they are not going to stop.

It's going to be something else tomorrow.

Mark my word.

I know that too.

No,

I think we all know that now, Catherine.

You know, asking for the government to

just operate within the limits of our instruction manual.

That's what the Constitution is.

Our Declaration of Independence is, here's what we want to build, the highest ideal.

We want to have this as a society.

It's just the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence.

Just read that.

That's our mission.

Now, how do we accomplish it?

Well, this is how this system is going to work, but the people are going to have to stay vigilant because if you want to have that as your goal, Then you really have to watch the machine we're building.

And here's the machine.

We're not even using that owner's manual anymore.

We don't even know it.

Most people don't even know the Bill of Rights, which is the addendum to the owner's manual that just said that is the owner's manual for dummies.

If it were written today,

because remember, the Bill of Rights came two years later.

1789 Constitution, 1791 is the Bill of Rights.

And the Bill of Rights was the honestly, the people in Washington going, geez, you know, there are going to be stupid people who are just not going to get this.

And I think there's already stupid people growing in this government who don't understand.

So the

booklet for dummies is the Bill of Rights.

Government can never violate these things.

All right, Diane, you're on the Glenn Beck program.

Hey, Glenn.

My radical view is I'd like for elections to be safe and fair again

because they stole our freedoms from us and it affirmed everything that I thought and now I know it to be true.

Which?

The cheating.

The cheating.

Cheating.

Okay.

And how do you know it?

How do you know it to be true?

Because I went to, well, I've been reading and I went to Tanesh's movie last night, The 2000 Mule.

Yes, powerful.

And it was, oh my gosh.

Yeah.

Now,

no idea.

So let me ask you this, Starbucks.

Are you someone who says

this was, this was,

there was cheating that was going on, and I know it, and I, you know, I want to reverse the election?

Or are you somebody who says, this seems to be a very good case, and I would just like a group of people and I don't think they exist but a group of people that all of Americans could trust to then go look at that information in an open forum and have an investigation and a hearing on all of the actual facts

which one do you want wow wow

I think reversing the election would be too good to be true.

And

that'd be just too much for everybody.

I don't, even though it'd be the best thing for America, I suppose, because we wouldn't be in this position that we are in now.

Well, I don't think it would be gas prices and food.

I agree.

I agree with you 110% on those things, but I don't think it would be the best thing for America because America can only function

when we all believe in the system.

And the only way we're going to get there is have the evidence presented in a fashion of court

and have a real, trustworthy investigation of all of these things.

You know, we didn't have the information that Dinesh Souza just put out, but he even says, this isn't proof.

This is proof that it should be heard, looked at, and if it is entirely what we believe it to be,

then things need to change.

We need to repair this together, but I'm not sure how many people there are that actually want to do that.

And mainly in the political class, everybody likes to keep things just a little shady in case it falls their direction.

You know,

is it extreme to say,

you know, there should be limits on abortion.

And extreme cases, we can argue back and forth.

And I don't know if we have a lot of discussion to do before we're going to agree on life.

But in the meantime,

let's make this safe and rare,

not something to shout.

Is it so extreme to say the kids get to be, that these kids get to be born,

to walk barefoot in the grass, to drink water, maybe even swim in it?

To grow up, fall in love, fall out of love, and then back in in again.

The luckiest to have babies themselves.

They'll be our neighbors, our students, maybe even our president.

They may take us to Mars, cure cancer, or finally invent the beam from Star Trek.

That would be nice.

God may talk to them, may even work with them.

They may plant trees, come up with new ideas, may comfort us when we're old, maybe even in death.

Their mothers will know them, maybe even love them.

Try to make their fathers proud.

Or maybe they won't.

Maybe they'll just be average or unloved.

They'll be the burden society has told us they will be.

But just maybe they'll cure cancer and they'll drink water and they will be.

Is that

an extremist point of view?

The Glenn Back program.

Left is already stepping to the plate and trying to intimidate intimidate businesses that aren't standing up against the potential repealing of Roe versus Wade.

I mean, it is crazy.

This is the Glenn Beck program, Mark in Georgia, you're on the Glenn Beck program.

Welcome.

Hey, Glenn.

How are you, sir?

Did we lose you?

I think we lost him.

Mark?

All right, let's go to Dick in Alabama.

Hello, Dick.

Good morning, Glenn.

Real quick,

short on time for you.

Two things.

I want to make one, a prediction about the leaker at the Supreme Court.

And this is strictly a guess on my part.

I believe it was the new, the newly appointed Supreme Court justice

who leaked the information.

I'm not sure she would have had access.

She might have.

I mean, who knows?

She might have been also meeting with a biologist.

But anyway, go ahead.

But that's just, I'm just saying, but

the public will never know.

If it was, then they'll put it on the back of

someone down the line there, you know, a stool pigeon to take the wrap.

The other thing I wanted, the real reason I called you is I had dinner with a friend of mine.

Now I'm almost 69 years old.

I've got a friend I've been in business with for years, a long time ago.

He's struggling right now.

I'm retired.

He can't retire because of economic reasons.

But I had dinner with him the other night.

He lives in Atlanta.

I live here in Mobile, Alabama.

He believes he is so liberal.

He's always been a liberal person.

He's originally from New Jersey.

His family still lives in New Jersey, but he and his wife live in Atlanta.

Anyway, we had dinner, and he believes

that Trump was in collusion with the Russians, that everything that Joe Biden and the Democrats say is true.

And

I guess the message I'm trying to give to you is, is he's in a shell and he won't come out of that shell.

He said,

I guess you just listened to Fox News.

And I said, okay.

I said, that's not just who I listen to, but let me ask you, who do you listen to?

And he said, oh, I listen to NPR.

I said, there's your problem right there.

You need to broaden your sources.

You're just living in a shell and you don't want to believe anything.

You don't want to listen to facts.

And then we got to talk about the election.

He said, I guess

you believe the election was rigged.

And I said, yes, as a matter of fact, I do.

And of course,

he tried to blow me out of the water on that.

And then I said, well, do you know a guy named Dinesh D'Souza?

Oh, no, I've never heard of him.

And what I'm trying to convey to you and your audience, Glenn, is these people live in a shell and they don't want to come outside that shell.

So, whoops, did we lose him?

Dick, I agree with you entirely.

However, I want to give the caveat, just to be fair, a lot of conservatives do too.

You know, I read the New York Times every day.

I read the Washington Post.

I read things that I know I disagree with.

And I'm looking not necessarily for things that will open my eyes on, oh my gosh, we've been lied to by, you know, our leaders.

I'm open to that, but that's not what I'm reading for.

I'm reading for an understanding of how people are viewing things.

If we don't read the other side, then we become ignorant as well because We're hearing ours, we believe it, but we can't say, no, wait, hang on just a second.

I know because you were reading the New York Times.

So you saw this story, this story, and this story.

But what these stories left out, but they mentioned in one line,

we have the expanded part of that that changes the meaning of this story.

We have to, you know, that's why I said about the

election.

We cannot watch Dinesh Souza's movie and then go to our friends and say,

see, it was stolen.

You say

you believe that 2016, Donald Trump stole the election, right?

Okay, I don't.

But I believe that Dinesh D'Souza has made a very compelling case that the election was stolen in this particular way.

I'm not going to stand here and tell you I'm the authority because that's not our system.

Our system is the people standing up.

You have a different reason for it than I do.

But you probably also said that, you know, George Bush stole the election.

And then it was Donald Trump that stole the election.

Anytime a Republican wins, you guys say they stole the election.

So why don't we do this?

Why don't we, A, investigate what happened?

You've already investigated 2020.

Now, you may not want to look at it, but all of the facts are there.

Even the New York Times says.

Okay, so the facts are there.

That didn't happen.

And they spent four years investigating it.

And now we're investigating the investigators because it looks like they were in cahoots with Hillary Clinton.

But let's wait till all the facts are out.

Now there are some new facts on the table about this election.

I'm not talking about going back.

There's nothing in the Constitution, nothing in the Constitution that will cure this.

So we're facing something new.

But here's what I promise you, and I think you know this too.

If you have your set of facts and I have my set of facts, on the election,

we're never going to unite.

So, how can we push our elected leaders on both sides to have an open,

open hearing

with all of the facts on it?

Because I will accept if it is a true, fair, open, no secret meetings, an open

expose on all of this where legitimate people are bringing legitimate evidence up because I want it fixed, because I don't want a Republican president to rig a system,

and I don't want a Democrat to rig the system.

I don't want Elon Musk to rig the system.

I don't want Google to rig the system.

I don't want Russia to rig the system.

And we live in a world where technologically, technologically there's no reason for this.

This is what we need.

And

there's a story today that is coming from the Daily Beast.

Conspiracy theorists are already freaking out about the next pandemic as part of the so-called Great Reset.

Now, let me just, I'm going to go through this next week, but let me just give you a part of this.

In late 2020, conspiracy theorists started telling everyone who'd listen about a sinister plot called the Great Reset.

The global elites of the World Economic Forum had either co-opted or outright concocted the COVID-19 pandemic, they falsely claimed.

Then, world leaders and technocrats, almost all of whom are supposedly active agents or compromised puppets of the forum, adopted what conspiracy theorists see as a senseless and draconian policy like lockdowns, ostensibly to curb the spread of the virus, but really to destabilize and traumatize the globe.

As the pandemic wound on, this deluded line of thinking went that the WEF and its acolytes would exploit chaos and fear to lock in and expand the totalitarian powers they gained under the guise of protecting public health.

Okay,

I could take this paragraph apart in 700 different ways.

But here's the point I want to make on this today.

A,

that's not what everybody is saying.

That's a small group, and you've conflated a whole bunch of different things.

I mean, there are conspiracy theorists, again,

who are still pushing that Trump stole the election and colluded with Russia.

We now know for fact that's not true.

There are still people who believe that Bush stole the election.

Even the New York Times' own investigation proves that's not true.

But this article, by taking this snarky tone,

only makes conspiracy theories

stronger.

Because if you really want to debunk something, you need to say, look, we looked at this.

Here's what's true.

Here's what's not.

Yes, the

WEF was involved in

a pandemic study called Event 201,

but that doesn't give you evidence that this was planned.

But see, by saying there was no lab link,

the science is settled.

When you know the science isn't settled on that, and by mocking anybody and shutting anybody down, that only gives credence

in people's mind to, see, they are hiding something.

I bet it's because they planned it at Event 201.

No.

No.

As the pandemic wound on, this deluded line of thinking went that the WELF and its acolytes would exploit chaos and fear and lock in and expand the totalitarian powers.

Well,

isn't that never waste an emergency?

Isn't that the stated goal of people?

Isn't that exactly what Klaus Schwab said?

But by demeaning

the WEF

and demeaning and saying they're a bunch of nobodies, then why does everyone in power and why does every prime minister and president, why does the president of China speak at all of their global conferences?

If they're nobodies, they're clearly not nobodies.

Now,

is what they're doing

going to actually bring this to pass?

Well, let's look at the evidence.

I lay it all out in my book.

And I only use them as sources.

No conspiracies.

And it's left for you to decide because

the media is not doing their job.

You know why we don't have faith in our institutions?

Because we don't have anyone actually standing guard to keep those institutions honest.

That's why, when you say the biggest culprit in the downfall of America may just well be the media,

it's probably true.

We all know

people are people.

The best people will steal.

The best people will steal if they're encouraged to feel injustice

and if no one's watching them.

And if somebody gets away with it and then they're actually praised for it.

Other people will go, well, geez, if he's doing it, why aren't I?

I feel stupid.

Why am I not doing it?

That should be the job of the media and our churches and our own moral self.

But every institution is up for grabs right now.

And that's why no solution can come from jamming it down people's throats.

We have to have open

and honest debate and open and transparent investigations and let the chips fall where they may.

I said yesterday, and I would encourage you to say this out loud right now,

if it's found out that it is a conservative that leaked this document from SCOTUS,

I am just as pissed and I want the same ramifications, which is disbarment.

If they happen to be an attorney, a clerk, I want disbarment and I want some sort of internal punishment.

It's not against the law, but I want that person.

We need shame, at least, on that.

And I say that if it's a person on the right or a person on the left, it was wrong.

Those are the lines we need to start drawing because this isn't about left and right.

It's about right and wrong.

And there is no right and wrong anymore.

At least up at the upper levels.

There's still right and wrong in our own families.

You know right and wrong.

Those are our lines.

Back in a minute.

American financing.

Country's facing a severe slowdown.

We move closer and closer to recession.

Everything costs more lately and it's not going to get better anytime soon.

So you need to make sure that you are healthy in your financial position.

Both yourself and your family.

It is so important.

Please get a free mortgage review from American Financing.

Now, look, they might be able to help get you a better loan, a better rate, whatever on your mortgage, but also remember that your home value has increased by 20%.

That number is going to come down.

But what I'm recommending that you at least consider is if you have a whole bunch of credit cards that you're paying 20%

and you're not able to pay those things off right away, that 20% is going to become 25, might even become 30%, and you're never going to get out from under the eight ball.

Right now, even if the interest rate was 5%,

you can take that 20% interest rate, turn it to 5%, and pay those credit cards off.

That's a good use of the money that you now have gained just through invisible numbers because your value of your house has gone up.

Take advantage of this now, please.

At least consider it.

The Glen Beck Program.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

We have a lot yet to cover.

I want to share with you something that is coming from New York Magazine that will help you understand why I say we have to read the other side because you will understand them.

And if you don't understand how they view life, you're not going to be able to even have a conversation with people.

And hopefully more and more people on the left are starting to wake up and go, you know, I can't trust CNN.

And we know that's true because nobody's watching CNN.

Nobody is watching CNN.

So

can we make an inroad?

Yes.

But we have to know who they are.

Also, I've got a thing or two to say to Levis.

Are your jeans talking to you again?

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

It's in my genes,

and I'm going to let it out.

We're going to talk about Levi's and abortion and

a little thing that used to be called hypocrisy.

We'll do that coming up in just a second.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together if the corner survives.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

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

This is the Glenback program.

Hello, America.

It is Thursday.

Today is the day I'm opening up the phones.

I want to hear your voice.

We got a lot of people that have some really great stuff to talk about.

We're going to open up the phones next, 888-727-B-E-C-K.

Going to try to get to as many as we possibly can.

And I do have a message for Levi's.

And I'll do that in 60 seconds.

Okay, first thing you need to learn is the Fed is not your friend.

They're not even trying to hide the fact that inflation is here and it's here to stay for a while.

Meanwhile, what are they doing to make it better?

Ah, we're, you know, selling the U.S.

Treasury bonds.

Yeah, to whom?

Well, we're getting it off our balance sheet.

Oh, okay.

Okay.

Good.

Good for you.

And, you know, we printed, you know, like that $7 trillion loan that we gave to Japan without anybody really knowing about it.

Okay, that helped us out a lot.

That helped us out a lot.

Yeah, but we're going to raise interest rates.

Oh, okay.

Now they're saying, they came out yesterday that the economy is actually in really good shape.

Is it...

Look, they've already done the damage.

I don't know if they can bring in what's called a soft landing.

It's never been done before.

But, you know, hey,

men never could have babies before now.

Wait a minute.

I want you to call Goldline right now because Goldline is having a special on Mint State 62 $5 gold Indian head coins.

Now.

I want you to ask them specifically why I buy coins like this because this is what I invest in and it's it's very simple and

important

Very important grade.

You can also ask how you can get a free half-ounce platinum coin and a free two-ounce silver maple flex bar with the purchase of two boxes of these gold Indians.

Don't wait.

Call now, 866Goldline, 866Goldline or Goldline.com.

Levi Strauss and Company, according to the Blaze, on Wednesday joined the long line of corporations releasing statements affirming abortion rights and pledging to pay the travel expense of employees seeking an abortion.

In a statement titled, Protecting Reproductive Rights, a Business Imperative,

The apparel company said the business leaders are responsible for protecting the health and well-being of our employees, and that includes protecting reproductive rights and abortion access.

You know, Levi's,

most of America was done with you when you came out and said, we want to be the uniform of the revolution.

And you were shown pictures of Antifa.

No, no, that was special.

That was great.

That was very American of you to do.

We know this is a fraught conversation.

It's not something we enter into lightly.

Uh-huh.

You're from San Francisco.

You don't have a problem saying this.

But women make up 58% of our global workforce.

And in recent years, numerous employees have expressed to leadership their growing alarm over the rollback of all forms of reproductive care.

Well,

okay.

So, wow, 58% of their global workforce.

Now, I know

because

I did everything I could to save a great company called the Cone Mills.

They were the ones that made the original 501, the original denim that is really only the reason why you put on a pair of jeans now and it doesn't feel the same is those original because they were made by the Cone Mills.

They went out because,

yeah, Levi said, let's go to China.

Okay, all right.

Well, it was the thing back then.

Everybody was doing it.

And, you know, if everybody's jumping off a bridge and landing in China, well, why don't we do it too?

But they're very concerned about reproductive rights and the rights of women in their global workforce.

Okay, all right.

So they still do have, you know, employees here in America, and they still have some plants here in America, some people that are making stuff for Levis.

They have 12 mills and manufacturing plants here in America.

That's 12.

There's about 1,000 that are employed in these plants.

Now, that's not all Levi stuff, but they're making some of the stuff for Levi's in 12 different places.

And if you go to LeviStrauss.com, you'll see that they say, we make our products all over the world.

We're a global product.

We make them in America, Japan, Italy, China, and other countries.

Well, I decided I'm going to dig in a little bit more because one of the things I really don't like is hypocrites.

Now,

conservatives have said a long time, the only ones that really can be hypocrites are those who are trying to do better and they don't always make it.

All right, so

let's just say, let's be fair.

It's not fair to call them hypocrites because maybe they're trying to be better and they just haven't, for instance, you know uh i don't agree with slavery so

i don't make my products in china

but i do make my products in bangladesh and those are kind of slave wages yeah i know but at least i don't make it in china okay so they care about reproductive rights so they have uh 12 plants here in the United States, seven in Japan, 14 in Italy.

Wow, that's not very much.

What do they have in China?

The last country, they say, before other.

Well, they have 150 plants in China.

That

employs well over 100,000 people.

100,000.

In China, 1,000 here.

Now, if you were to make a determination of priorities based on that information,

what would you conclude?

Well, I would say maybe it's just a flu.

I mean, where else are they making stuff?

And, you know, Pakistan, that's great for women's rights.

You know that.

I mean, the only place it could be possibly better is the stability now, to quote the Biden administration, the stability of Afghanistan.

But they also make it in Bahrain and Bangladesh.

They make them all over the world.

Nothing even, like Pakistan, they have 19.

So they only have 12 here, but in Pakistan, they have 19.

Where women are treated so well.

Now, if they were doing it in Pakistan, but they weren't doing it in China,

I'd be like, okay, that's, you know, people calling, you know, hypocrite because they're not doing everything, you know, in totally, but they've made progress because they didn't go to China, the worst offender that has forced abortions until recently when they're like, oh, you have to have more children because we're running out of children.

You know, that doesn't seem like,

you know, I don't want Mao

standing in the bedroom with a gun to my head going, you're going to have children.

You're going to make love tonight.

Or, you know, you're not going to make love.

I don't want Mao in my bedroom.

Levi's doesn't seem to have a problem with it.

Okay,

so they'll do business where they had a one-child policy and now a policy that I don't know, maybe you need eight.

But the government is definitely, and this is a very carefully chosen word, dictates

what your reproductive organs are going to be doing this month.

And 58% of their global workforce.

Well, a good portion of that global workforce and seemingly, I mean, it could be as much of as half of their entire workforce, is in China.

Huh.

That doesn't make Levis a hypocrite.

That makes Levis

a liar.

They're lying to you.

You can't do business with China

at this scale

and say, I care about reproductive rights.

This is something we care passionately about.

No, no, you're a San Francisco progressive.

You've backed all of the radicals, including Antifa.

You have a different understanding of what liberty is.

And I have a different understanding of what

products are.

I like Levi's.

I used to, because they were good, had great denim.

I don't wear Levi's anymore because you suck.

But I really am motivated to tell everybody what liars you are on top of it.

Not only do you suck, not only have you stood for things that are not American when you were the quintessential American brand, not only did you stand for things that weren't American,

Now you're lying to us about the importance of women when, yeah, they're dropping babies in the rice patties while they're working.

Right, Levis, I got it.

Okay, let's go to Delwyn in Utah.

888-727-BECK.

Hi, Delwyn.

Hello, Glenn.

Glad to be on.

Thank you, sir.

I'm just finishing up my milk chores.

Hey, the thing I wanted to.

I love it.

Yes, sir.

I'm a radical because I attended our convention, and everybody's asking what's happening to Utah.

Well, what's happening to Utah is deceit.

And we have two candidates in District 1

that

are running against one candidate that

is very conservative, being supported by Rob Bishop.

And

one of the candidates, Blake Moore, is being groomed by Romney.

Yeah.

Romney's a real problem in Utah, and he has a lot of very influential and very powerful and people who write big, big checks because, you know, they want to be inclusive with everyone.

Where I'm sorry, I don't know when the Constitution of the United States became hate speech.

I don't know when it became radical to stand up, especially in Utah.

May I remind you, a state that was built by people who were chased out of the United States.

And their first act,

the first

act

when Brigham Young got there was to hold a parade where, and I can't remember which was which, but the women carried the Constitution and the men carried the Declaration of Independence.

And the message was, do not blame this on the system.

People are people, but we believe in these principles.

Hmm.

So

those people,

those people

are now, some of them treating people who believe in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

Those people are radicals, dangerous radicals.

I'm sorry, just as I know in my religion, you know, I...

I can't tolerate and stand around

when evil evil is there.

It chases away the spirit.

Okay.

Can't, can't participate in it.

Well, I believe the same thing is true with the spirit of destruction of the family, of the Constitution, of the Declaration of Independence.

Sorry.

And,

you know,

I just don't know

how

people could, you know, cozy up

to planned parenthood and abortionists.

And, well, that's just my job.

No, I know what my job is.

I know what my job is.

And I'm not,

I'm very careful to make sure that

I limit the number of people who are actively against the teachings of my faith.

Okay.

I don't associate with people who are actively trying to pull

the gospel apart.

Because in my faith, there's some consequences on that, or are there?

But anyway,

I'm with you, Delwyn.

Thank you for milking the cows, and thank you for doing everything you can to expose who these people are that are around Mitt Romney.

Mitt Romney is a danger to our Constitution.

And I say it for this one reason alone.

When you have a guy whose grandfather was the president of the church at one point,

and he's only saying the things that the president of the church said,

and he's actually standing and defending them, Mike Lee.

When that guy's called a radical and dangerous,

you've got a serious issue.

And Mitt Romney is doing everything he can to stop Mike Lee from being elected.

Everyone in Utah needs to know it.

You make your own decisions.

It's up to you as a state.

But I have to tell you, I'm not sure.

I'm glad I didn't bet on Utah.

Because I'm not sure Utah is going to stand.

Have you looked at your governor?

Sorry.

Let me go to Carol in just a second.

Pen Second Station ID.

I know.

Did you have any passion on that?

It seemed like you put a lot of thought into that one for just a random question coming in.

It seemed like you

haven't had a lot of, I mean, it's been a lot of thought over a long period of time.

You hadn't talked about it that extensively.

Yeah.

And it seemed like almost like there's an explosion.

Yeah.

You know,

it's a damn breaking of something.

Yeah, sometimes I'm the lucky one because I have a place to vent.

And so many people don't.

No, very, very true.

I don't really feel better now that I vented.

You know?

Really?

Yeah.

Don't know what would make me feel better.

I got something for you.

Are you ready?

We have

to, for the first time, I believe, ever,

is

a new product for you to try.

Oh, don't know.

This is the day.

Yeah, I've been telling you about this.

This is the day.

No, not today.

No, it's a good, this is going to be fun.

No, it's not.

It's fake steak.

It is, okay, you know what this is?

It's bologna,

just thicker.

No, that's what it's got to be.

I don't know.

No, it's a fake bologna.

So it is a company.

This is my understanding.

You know, we've tried impossible burgers on the air.

We've tried a bunch of these.

It's a fake steak.

This is a fillet.

It's supposed to be a fillet.

Now, I don't know if it actually is going to taste like a filet or.

It will to you.

It'd be like fake wine to me.

They haven't had wine with alcohol in it forever.

But one of the products that they never really have created is a

is like a knife and fork steak.

True.

That's just not something they could do like chicken and cheese steaks and they can do burgers pretty well at this point.

I don't know about steaks.

So there's a company that's trying to do fillets that are plant-based.

I believe we have one of the first 1,000 orders in the United States.

for these steaks.

And it's being prepared right now.

Right now for you to try.

Of course.

Are you excited?

No.

This will totally

change your day from the sea.

So you have to use a knife and a fork.

Well, I don't know.

I mean, I don't, I've never, you know, but it is, you know, when I think of a

when I think of a steak, you know, like that steak experience that you have when you eat meat, you go down a steak place, you go down, you get the knife and the fork, and you go through it.

Maybe you have a little, I don't know, what this Bernays sauce.

Sure.

You know, like there's a bunch of the sauce.

I don't know.

So that's not something that I've ever seen replicated well.

No, really even attempt to do it.

No, remember, this started with something we all said we would never do.

The pink slime.

This is how that's...

Out of the pink slime came this.

What do you mean, out of the pink slime?

Don't you remember?

They were first trying to make

vegetable meat products, and it was pink slime?

I thought the pink slime thing was a meat offshoot.

No.

Yeah, the pink slime.

The original pink slime story was this, like, it was a byproduct of a, no, it wasn't fake meat.

It was turning people to start trying fake meat.

Oh, my gosh.

It was real meat

off-runnings.

No.

Well, anyway, we're going to try something here in the next break, and I have no idea how it's going to go.

Could go badly, but I feel like we'll give it a whirl.

Cut with a spoon-style forks.

Oh, I remember when you said that.

I want to know if it can be cut with a spoon-styled fork, which which is not a thing,

not a thing, neither is vegetable meat.

That's fair.

That's fair.

Maybe I'll cut it with a spoon-styled fork.

Look, I think these fake steaks might be good.

I've seen pictures of them, they look good.

By the way, isn't a spoon-styled fork a spork?

That's a fork-styled spoon.

Inflation is substantially outpacing wage growth.

It's like, wow, the sun sure is bright and around today.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yep.

Inflation is outpacing growth.

Mm-hmm.

Not a real shocker,

but here's what you can do.

You need to start saving money wherever you can.

And the best place to start saving money is on anything that has high interest.

Now, maybe that's your mortgage.

They just raised the mortgage, they just

raised the mortgage rates again yesterday.

This is going to affect your credit cards.

And that's where I really want to start:

what are your credit cards, the interest rate?

If you're not paying those off, you need to get them.

You need to get out of them because those interest rates are going to go higher and higher.

And I think the average is like 19.1 or 19.9 right now.

Please call American Financing.

Ask them, can you help me save save money?

They can.

No.

No, I thought.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's got like juices and stuff.

We're test testing a new product.

It smells like dog food.

This stew just brought in.

This is like dog food.

You don't know what steak even smells like.

But I know what dog food smells like.

Not tastes like.

By the way, sure.

Now, these are filet mignones, supposedly.

Plant-based filet mignones.

The first time I think this has ever been attempted.

It's by a company called.

Because it's like the first thousand offline.

Yeah, it's like a brand new product.

Juicy Marbles is the name of the company.

Juicy Marbles.

Now, they have been prepared.

I mean, they look.

Okay, so look, look at this.

This does have like strange texture.

I mean,

it looks like fillet in its texture.

Man, cutting it open sure doesn't smell like fillet.

I don't think it smells that bad.

Should we try it?

It's got like juices and stuff, too.

I don't have to be putting the juice in.

I don't know what that juice is.

They just prepared the thing.

Let's try.

Glenn Beck trying a plant-based filet mignon.

Here we go.

This will be an adventure.

Okay.

It doesn't taste like steak.

That's not.

But it doesn't taste like dog food.

Okay.

Okay.

All right.

So we're in between

steak and dog.

It doesn't taste like

a steak, but it

almost has the texture of steak.

Almost.

Robert, come in.

Robert's my brother.

He was a food and beverage director for a while at some of like really good resorts.

By the way, it tastes bad.

Trying

the beef steak tomatoes.

They are beef

vegetables.

So we have plant-based steak and beef-based vegetables?

All right.

Yeah, I couldn't eat that.

I don't like the aftertaste to it.

Yeah.

All right.

I could eat it.

Now, of course, I haven't had steak in

wine tasting.

You know,

people, people, you know, I'll try this fake wine with zero alcohol in it.

I'll keep it.

And I'll be like, this is really good.

And people will be, really?

The drink it spit it out.

It's horrible.

Right.

You have no idea.

You have no idea.

See, I don't know.

Did you try it, Robert?

Yeah,

try it.

Here, here, try it.

Just tell me what you think.

It's interesting because as a person who doesn't eat steak anymore,

it

hits some of those notes that I remember, or at least recall from back in the day.

Sit here and talk into that microphone.

And, of course, Robert's also a very good chef and makes it probably tastes better than most people would have it, but still.

I mean,

it almost has a consistent.

I actually kind of like it.

You like it.

Wow.

So you would serve that in one of your real nice restaurants if you were doing that.

Without a doubt?

No, no no i wouldn't no you wouldn't no okay no chance in hell no well wait wait wait wait wait wait wait as an option on your on your if somebody this is restaurant quality beef can you move your mic over there robert yeah sorry it's restaurant quality non-beef which means that it's passable for a vegetarian who wants to get remember eating beef right look if i go to a steak place they never have anything on the menu that i can eat so as yeah i think that would be good for people who don't have meat yeah i i would agree i i would say And seeing that none of us will have meat in, you know, by 2030, get used to it.

I think the texture is actually remarkable.

I wouldn't have thought you could

have never thought you could get that.

I mean, it is like a really good fillet.

You know, when you cut a fillet and it has, it's like stringy, you know what I mean?

It's, you know, looks like muscle.

I think the aroma is the only thing that's off-putting.

Yeah.

Right?

Because the aroma just has that something's off.

It smells like bad meat.

That's what I like.

Yeah.

No, I mean, it's.

It's called dog food.

Yeah.

It smells like spoiled meat.

Really?

But I don't think the texture is bad meat.

I do.

I mean, well.

You do.

It's either that or really, it's baloney.

Right?

It smells like kind of baloney.

You know, it could have been a horse.

I would say it kind of crisps up on the top and the bottom in a nice way.

No, I mean, I think if you're a vegetarian, that is a great option.

For instance, my son-in-law is a vegetarian, and I'm not sure it's entirely

his,

you know, a happy wife, happy life.

Let's just leave it in the hallway.

Okay, sure.

This would be a great option for him.

Yeah, I got a sad thing.

Go in the hallway because he's here.

Have him try this.

I will.

Because I know he used to like meat.

Have him come in here and just leave that.

I got to say, it's a pretty...

For me.

It is pretty.

Again, I can understand if you're going to fancy steakhouses all the time, it's going to be different, but it's pretty good.

No, no, I don't think fancy.

I think any steakhouse is fancy.

I think if the cow has been slaughtered in the same room and they just tore the meat out and

put it on an open flame,

that's not fancy to me, and I think it's, you know,

they notice the difference.

So it's not a rave review, you'd say.

No, for what it is, it's a rave review for what it is.

If that's your first attempt,

they'll get it.

They'll get it.

I never thought they'd be able to do the texture.

I'm looking at it cut open with the texture.

Yeah.

And there's no way I would say that's not meat.

Wow.

Yeah.

Look at that.

I mean, there's, I mean,

you know,

it looks kind of.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's pretty.

It's a, it's an impressive.

I mean, the, the future is bright, America.

Soon we'll all be having plant-based steaks and steak-based plants.

Get used to it.

Have some dog food today.

Let me go to Carol.

Hi, Carol.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Hi, Glenn.

It's nice to visit with you.

I waited quite a while to get to talk to you.

Oh, okay.

Well, thank you.

So my husband said, if I get to talk to you, the first thing I have to say to you is, what's up, Cracker?

What's up, Nutcracker?

I know.

Oh, yeah, dog.

I got it.

But the reason I called is because my biggest concern right now is a mother and a person who manages two businesses veteran-owned here in our town,

my son is now homeschooled.

My son is homeschooled because of the inconsistencies in the administration here.

They can't get their act together.

And now that we have the worry of what they're going to be putting in their little minds, it's even scarier for me.

We're not investing in our future, which is our children, the people who are going to wipe our butts when we're old.

We're not investing in them.

We're investing in a country that obviously has the theatrics to have their president on TV every day telling us what's going on.

Why are we doing this?

Why aren't we investing in our future instead of everybody else's?

Okay, so

I agree and disagree at the same time.

Because of the nature of what has just happened in Ukraine,

We have,

and I'm against this, but we have spent a lot of time and a lot of money, especially during the Biden and Obama years

and with Clinton over in Ukraine.

It's an extraordinarily corrupt country,

but it does

understand for as much as a country like that can understand

freedom.

It's just really corrupt.

They are also the gateway to Russia, or if you're on the Russian side, the gateway, them and Poland, Hungary, the gateway to Europe.

They're not a NATO country.

I don't want to fight in their war.

I don't mind

helping them out.

I think we're starting to spend crazy amounts of money.

Europe should be spending that kind of money and we should be spending the money that they are spending, quite honestly.

However, I don't mind standing up at this point with somebody who seems to almost repeat the pattern of Germany.

in the 1930s.

So I don't think we can abandon that because it is in our interest not to lose Europe Europe to Russia,

but it is also in our interest not to go to war over this.

Enough with the foreign wars.

Enough with the foreign wars.

And I do agree with you that we need to be spending our money here, but I don't think that the government should be spending our money.

I think we should abolish the Department of Ed and take all of those taxes that we now send to Washington and keep them in our own local areas and build the schools and do the schools ourselves and not be beholden to people who have no idea who the people,

well, I was going to say, who the people in the middle of the country or the people in San Francisco are, but I'm, I can't say that because I think they're all too aware of who the people in San Francisco are and they despise the people in the middle of the country.

We need our money back and our control.

Thank you so much.

Real quick, one more call from Wes.

Hi, Wes.

You're on the Glenn Beck program.

yeah glenn appreciate the uh time here uh two quick things uh i had the question uh during the 2020 election leading up to uh what we know was stolen um

seems to be the only cognitive test for presidency is whether or not the american people vote for a president and wanted to ask you the question

um you know we got away from the prerequisite of any kind of military position for the, quote, commander-in-chief,

and to kind of piggyback off of a fixed system comment and transparency.

Shouldn't there be some sort of a cognitive test to prevent the legal footwork of exercising?

I don't know how you would devise that, and I worry it could be abused.

I mean, think about how that would have been abused under Donald Trump.

The only thing that we have right now is the 25th Amendment, but that cannot be enacted by anyone other than the president's own cabinet and party.

The vice president and the cabinet, they're the only ones that can say that.

And if they're all in cahoots and they don't care,

then the country is in real trouble.

That's why I think the real solution here is to get away from these parties and stop putting the party ahead of principles.

There's no way that Joe Biden, because he tried over and over again, there's no way Joe Biden would ever win in an election, especially in that condition.

We all knew, so did they, but they were so blinded by their hatred for the GOP and Donald Trump that they would have elected a stool.

And they did.

It's a real problem, but the problem lies with the American people and the party system, I believe.

And I'm not for any new guilds or groups that are going to tell the American people who's qualified and who's not qualified.

I think we just start using common sense.

We all knew he was no longer qualified for the presidency of the United States.

But maybe that's, you know,

maybe that's just me.

Back in just a second.

Internet, wild and woolly place.

Anything can and does happen uh all the time and of course tons and tons of cyber crime happens all the time do not like the aftertaste of that it's an easy fact to ignore if you've never been receiving the you know the end of cyber thiefs bad intentions if if you are waiting for it to happen or you think it's never going to happen to you it will it's coming it's going to affect all of us no one can stop all of it no one can watch everything so you need the best in the business that does it And they also need to have an arm that knows what to do if it happens to you to clean it all up because it can really destroy things in your life.

Now, that company, I think, is Life Lock by Norton.

We know Norton, we know Lifelock was the first on the scene.

These are the two best companies, and they've joined together.

They're the best ones to have you avoid it, to notify you if something is happening, or if they miss something, clean it up.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Okay, so here it is on that meat thing.

Yeah, I liked it.

I thought it was really good.

In fact, the people in the back room liked it too.

I think it's the smell that bothers me.

Okay.

Because it smells like dog food.

And I know what cooked dog food smells like.

Yes, you do.

Can you tell this story?

Is this allowed?

Are you allowed?

Well, I wasn't sure if you were A, reutilizing it, or B, have a pending lawsuit

about this particular day.

But

can you explain the story?

I'm sure we have enough time.

Okay, so the thing you have to understand is my family, we are brutal on each other and brutal to the people we love.

Okay.

So there is not means, what might appear to be mean-spirited to some people, when you're in the family or, you know, you're part of the family, we love you and so we beat on you.

So in a, in a, like a pranking in a a prank sort of way, yeah.

So, um, there were the, there were these two missionaries that were coming over for dinner, and one was in on it, the other one wasn't.

He was just new, first day out.

And so, he was having dinner and having it at our house.

And when they asked, this other missionary and I, we hatched a plan to break him in.

And

when they asked, can we have dinner?

I said, sure.

You know what?

My wife will make her special meatloaf.

And the one who was in on it went, oh, good.

As soon as I left, he said, oh my gosh, this is the worst meatloaf ever, but you have to eat it because they think it's really good.

So you have to eat it.

So we took dog food and we put it in a meatloaf pan.

Oh my gosh.

Mixed it with some pickles and, you know, everything you wouldn't want in meatloaf and

then cooked it.

The house smelled.

horrible.

So they come in and Tanya says, I made my meatloaf and she put it out on the table.

Tanya was even in on this.

Oh, yeah.

I mean, it was mainly mean, but she was in on it.

So put it on the table and she said, help yourself, boys.

Now, we couldn't, we could, we had to watch from the other room because

we were, well, I had to hold Tanya back because she was like, they can't actually, I'm going to tell them.

And I'm like, no, you, no, no, no, no.

And so we, so we watched from the other room and she yelled, stop, right before they.

they ate it.

But he was cutting it and putting it on his plate and they were looking at it.

And the new guy was like, oh my gosh, we have to eat this?

This looks so horrible.

And he got it all the way up to his mouth before Tanya wrecked the scam.

So your plan was to let them eat the dog food?

Well, at least one bite.

You know?

No, I don't know.

That's why I'm married to Tanya.

She stops me from doing things like this.

But she was in on that one.

Oh, she was in.

That's how you remember it?

That's how I remember it.

Let me ask you this.

Is this how she would remember it?

I don't know.

We don't talk about things in the past.

We look to the future.

We look to the future in our family.

Why dwell on the past, Stu?

You know, I think that missionary was, he was so.

He left the faith.

So there wasn't my father.

He was so into it because he was like, when the new missionary came out with him, he was like, what are we going to do?

Will you make that meatloaf again?

I'm like,

you're sick, okay?

You're sick.
