Elon Musk vs. the World | Guests: Rob Collins & Riaz Patel | 4/27/22

At Burger King, when it comes to value, you make the rules.

Introducing the you rules of value.

And you rule number one, you choose food you actually want.

With seven tasty options, you can have it your way.

Try the $5 duo or $7 trios from BK Classics to Fan Faves.

Choose your deal.

Price and participation vary.

U.S.

Let me talk about the housing market a little bit.

You know, the housing market has been going crazy.

I have a friend who had 15 showings in the first day when they put their house on the market and had two offers over their asking price by a pretty significant amount.

I mean, the market is still going crazy, at least here in Texas.

I don't know if that's still holding up everywhere, but in Texas it is.

And one of the side effects of this is

your equity is more and more and more.

You have more equity, which is great typically, unless, of course, you're a victim of home title fraud.

This makes you a real target for home title fraud because the more equity we have,

you have, the bigger the payday is for the cyber criminal who's stealing your home title.

It's something you do not want to go through.

You do not want to try to unwind this with the banks and insurance companies and local governments and all this other stuff.

So go to hometitalock.com and read testimonials from FBI agents and government officials.

See if this is right for you.

I think it is.

Hometitallock.com.

Register your address and see if you're already a victim and don't even know it yet.

And then protect yourself going forward at home titlelock.com.

Bad times, like, you know, right now when the checklist, the check engine light is on and maybe you've had to abandon it at the side of the road and you can't afford to get it fixed.

It would just cost too much money.

If only there was a way to get coverage for your car.

There is.

So, Stu, there was a story,

and I want to see if you have much on this.

There was a story from Austin where a second grade teacher at a public school district was teaching students about the subculture of furries.

Okay.

Yeah.

All right.

Okay.

So the parents found out through flyers or second graders at the Austin Independent School District learned about youth subcultures from goths to furries and many more.

This is happening during the second week of April.

One worksheet was titled, Design Your Fursona.

And students were asked if their Fursona were male, female, or non-binary.

Now, Austin ISD said this isn't in their curriculum.

They have no information on it.

Right.

Is this true?

It does seem to be false, actually.

This one.

There is a

former Reddit community that basically tries to hoax the media and come out with, I think it's called R-Drama.

Like they want to create drama, basically.

So they made false flyers.

Now, this would be fake news.

This seems to be fake news i i from the

left or from the right

i don't know if the i i don't know if they have an ideology or if they just like to create drama but uh it does seem like uh some of this is is not true okay which is i guess i mean it doesn't mean that we haven't seen this exact type of thing in 20 other places but this this particular flyer that's good but um i want you to know i

i looked into furries You did?

Yeah.

Yeah.

And there's actually.

That's something you want to admit on the radio.

If you know more of the noise as the show started.

I'm a doctor, man.

That's true.

You are a doctor.

That's true.

So the Furry Fiesta

did a...

Is that a site you frequent?

No, I think that's a festival of furries.

Okay.

They did

a survey of furries.

And furries are basically people that dress up like animals.

Let's not pretend you don't know what furries are.

To explain it to the audience, obviously, I'm well-versed in the world of furries, but is that basically what it is?

You're like, do you dress up like a mascot?

I think it's more than that.

You identify as a mascot.

As a mascot.

Okay.

Okay.

All right.

Okay.

So

these are the questions and the answers.

And now let's just see if we needed a survey to figure out a lot of these things.

Okay.

How much of the furry fandom

is Therian,

otherkin,

brony, or human?

Now, I didn't know you were going to break down the furries because I'm a little loose on the furry thing already.

You know what I mean?

I think I got it.

So I think I know two of those terms.

Okay, go ahead.

Go ahead.

Human.

Okay, good.

I know that one.

You know that one.

I have heard of the term brony before, which I believe are male fans of My Little Pony.

Like you're a bro and you're a fan of my little pony.

Yes.

Okay.

Yes.

Where friendship is magic.

It is magic.

Okay.

It is.

All right.

So

the data shows

that

you find about one in five furries will self-identify as Therian,

which is

somebody who describes themselves as a particular species of animal.

So they are, I'm a wolf.

I'm a Therian.

I'm not just a furry.

I'm a Therian.

So you're

not.

I'm not a specific type of.

I am not cheating with other animals.

I am strictly wolf.

Obviously.

Okay.

All right.

20 to 25% of furries also self-identify as a brony.

where friendship is magic.

Finally,

65% of the sample checked human.

Hmm.

Now, here's where it gets interesting.

A test revealed, they just broke it out in different ways, 69.5% of non-theurians check the human box, but only 30, 43%

of Thurians check the box.

So in other words, if you're a wolf and only a wolf,

you're less likely to claim you're a human, too.

Okay.

Okay.

I think that's really crucial.

Therians are more likely to identify as members of non-human animal species, less likely to self-identify as humans.

So I just want to throw that out there so you know.

Okay.

Now,

what is the relationship status of most furries?

I mean, I don't know.

It's a good question.

I was assuming that 6.5 are in a master-pet relationship.

Okay, master-pet.

Polyamorous, 5.8.

An open relationship.

I don't know.

Maybe you're...

I don't know.

Chris Rock, look out.

I'm just saying.

A furry might come and slap you across the face if you say anything about their pet.

Anyway, polyamorous, 5.8.

Open relationship, 6.9.

Common law.

2.3.

Married.

I'm surprised that's so low.

I know.

Married, 5.8.

Engaged, 5.4.

Dating, 25.

And a surprising 56%

are single.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Now remember, dating

is an option.

So over half of the furries aren't even dating.

They're just single and alone.

This is stunning.

Right?

I thought so.

I thought so.

The living accommodations of the average furry.

Let's see.

We have.

Is there a category for underbridge?

No, there's not.

15% of Furies live alone.

If you said Furies, are they afraid of the furries?

Sorry, sorry.

Furries live alone.

Okay.

But

the majority live

with their parents.

Yes, their parents, absolutely.

I know.

Okay.

I mean, you know, I just wanted to say.

Now, they said that that's because, you know, these guys are, you know, I mean, these

these furries are,

you know, in their 20s and sometimes early 30s.

And, you know, they're going to college and

caring for their wonderful.

See, are they their parents, though?

Well, if they are

an animal,

are their parents also animals?

Or are they

just a human gave birth to an animal?

Don't make this.

That is

a legitimate question.

This is science.

Okay.

You don't have the answer to to it.

That's why you're avoiding the question.

So do these people have a full-time job?

Okay.

People who identify as, you know, an animal.

Do they have a full-time job?

Shockingly, only 30% have a full-time job.

23% have part-time.

But 35% have full-time education going for them.

Okay.

So that's good.

22% completely unemployed.

Now, let's look at that as a part of the population.

Okay.

22%

unemployed.

I think that's a little higher than the average rate, but that just could be me.

Now,

does post-secondary education,

does that play a role in freedom?

Apparently, yes.

So in other words, if you go to college,

You're more likely to become a furry.

Again, a surprising result of this test.

I didn't see that coming.

Didn't see that coming.

Now,

the political orientation of the furry population.

What do you think?

It's going to shock you.

Green Party?

Quite socially liberal.

Yes.

Really?

Yes, yes, yes.

Almost all furries own pets, which is strange, really.

Yeah, wait.

So are they pets?

Are they equals?

Exactly.

Do you own, you, do, can you own a pet if you're a furry?

And how does that go with the master-pet relationship?

Which one's the pet?

Which one's the master?

And if you're a furry owning a pet, isn't that slavery?

I think it is.

It is.

And if you're not a vegan, you're also a cannibal.

Right.

Past psychological research.

Here it is.

How much fantasy do furries engage in?

Past psychological research suggests that fantasy engagement is pretty universal, that the average person has a pretty active fantasy life.

Now, some would say, and I'm not a, oh, I am a doctor.

So some would say, including experts like me, that sure,

fantasy, you know, is, is fine.

Thinking that you have a tail

or that you are a wolf

or just any animal that you choose to to be at any time and that's a big part of your life I think that might be a problem now take that from a doctor not all doctors you know only nine out of ten doctors agree when they're not subject to some sort of abuse by social media

so they're looking at

why do you engage in this fantasy The more furry a person was,

the more they used fantasy to fulfill some currently unfulfilled need in their life.

Now, I find that surprising.

So, in other words, they're pretending to be an animal because something is missing in their life.

Oh, man.

I hope the federal government paid for this.

The more furry a person was, the more they tended to use fantasy as a means of motivating themselves.

I'm trying to figure that one out.

The more, well,

actually, I don't have to.

Only, what was it, 32% are employed?

So,

not working.

Anyway, the more furry the person was, the more they tended to use fantasy as a means of coping with setbacks and failures.

Hmm.

The more furry a person was, the more they tended to use fantasy as a means of escape from the real world.

Now, none of these really sound healthy, but maybe that's just me.

Because the next question that they ask, is this healthy?

Well,

yes, according to the furries, they said, yeah, it's just a way to express yourself and to escape from reality.

Oh,

okay.

All right.

Okay.

By the way, I could go into this, but I don't think we have time because it gets really, really deep and very scientific on how furries and bronies view each other because there's a split.

The bronies and the furries don't really like each other.

And

it's weird because,

you know, they both say they like each other, but then when they get down into the numbers here, it looks like there is real division.

And

there could be some problems between the furries and the bronies

coming up.

An intramural squabble of some sort.

Yes.

Now,

here's the best part of it.

They just took part of the survey just for fun.

And it was furry creativity.

And I want to read this on how they said.

Perhaps one of the most interesting questions we asked was assessing furry creativity.

These questions, taken from a well-validated creativity test developed by psychologists studying the psychology of creativity asked participants to create a number of different, oftentimes seemingly pointless writing tasks.

I mean, seemingly pointless, that's right up their alley.

The goal of questions is to assess the creativity of furries based on the uniqueness of the answers provided and the sheer number of answers provided.

Furries are oftentimes said to be some of the most creative and non-conventional thinkers you'll ever meet.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Non-conventional.

Below,

the researcher says, I've compiled some of my favorite answers to the creativity questions that just will emphasize how creative and often hilarious furries can be.

Okay, so they're going to be,

these are going to blow you away.

Here's the question.

Please write down all of the different things you can do with a brick.

Okay, this is great.

Okay.

Some of these are one, make a brick cube.

Draw eyes and a mouth on it to confuse someone.

Sell it and use the profits for anything.

So creative.

Create a nuclear reactor.

Wow, these guys are.

Okay, here's the next question.

What?

Please.

No, these are creative.

I'm showing you how creative these people are.

Please indicate all of the things that a chair and a desk have in common.

Try to avoid the obvious.

Both could be used to obstruct zombies.

Both taste bad.

Both can be used as weapons in professional wrestling.

Both hurt when you stub your toe on them.

Both are fun to kick across the room.

They're both affected by gravity.

Oh, man.

I mean,

look out.

America.

When these guys are in charge of America,

problems fixed.

American Financing, NMLS, 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

you know, are going to make decent money and you have a house.

Okay.

Then you have children and that furry is

living in your basement and they have to buy all kinds of furry things, new tails, et cetera.

And they don't have a job.

So you're like, yeah, just use the credit card.

Credit card gets maxed out on all those very important furry things.

And now you're sitting here with 19% interest.

And the furry is like, I don't even know what that means.

Oh, man.

By the way, tonight at 9 p.m.

on the Wednesday night special.

You say it's about furries.

It better not be a detailed look at the war on gender and the dark money network that is driving it.

I don't think we can rule Furries out.

I honestly don't think you can.

This is something that was planted decades ago in academia.

It's called gender ideology.

Since the 2015 Supreme Court decision legalizing gay marriage, there has been an explosion of

the trans agenda across media, business, government, and education.

And it is all driving towards the utopia of total freedom from outdated distinctions of male and female and unrestricted sexual freedom of any and all types.

Okay?

Well, this seems to be something that is just springing up and it's a change of the times, but that is not true.

This is not grassroots.

There is nothing organic about it.

As we started doing our research on this, we were blown away.

An academic ideology on its own cannot take hold in a a culture.

It requires patrons who have tons and tons of money.

Dangerous ideology combined with super wealthy progressives, corporations, international organizations, and an army of nonprofits to form the poison that is currently coursing through the system of America.

That is tonight.

Join me for the Dark Money Network funding the war on gender.

That's tonight at 9 p.m.

only on Blaze TV and Blaze TV YouTube.

You can also find it on Pluto.

Just look for the Blaze TV channel on Pluto.

That's tonight at 9 p.m.

Well, I'm going to take off my bunny costume now.

I mean, it was a sexy bunny costume.

It wasn't.

I wasn't anywhere near the president last night.

I didn't want to confuse him.

I was like, don't listen to me.

I'm a sexy bunny.

That was the Easter bunny.

And he looked right at me and said,

No joke, man.

Back to back tonight, Studos America and Glenn's special on furries.

It's at policetv.com slash Glenn.

The promo code is

Sorrels in a Bunny Outfit.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

So glad that you have tuned in today.

We have Eric Schmidt.

He is the Missouri Attorney General.

He's also a candidate for the U.S.

Senate.

And

he was one of the guys, along with Texas, that is asking the Supreme Court for a reinstatement of the Remain in Mexico policy because

the Biden policy is killing us, killing us.

Welcome to the program.

Eric, how are you, sir?

Great to be back with you, Glenn.

I'm doing great.

Good.

How's your campaign going for Senate, by the way?

It's good.

I think people are responding.

They want to fight her right now to shake up Washington, you know, coming from Missouri.

And that's certainly been my records, Attorney General.

We need reinforcements to save America.

I I know you talk about it every day, and that's my mission.

So things are going well.

Okay, so as the Attorney General of Missouri, you are filing this motion with the Supreme Court.

They accepted it.

You argued in front of them yesterday.

Explain what you're arguing for.

Is this the same thing as the Title, what is it?

I want to say Title IX, but it's not 42 or 24.

42.

Yeah, is it the same thing?

It's not.

So

I'll take a step back here.

So last year, Missouri and Texas challenged Biden trying to cancel.

He came into office on day one.

He reflexively tried to undo all of President Trump's successes, including the border security that we had.

And so there were a couple pieces in place, including, by the way, finishing his border wall.

We've got a lawsuit on that as well.

But on Remain in Mexico, President Trump came in and said, look,

we're not going to do this catch and release business because people never show up for their court date, right?

So Mexico will be the waiting room while you wait for your asylum hearing.

Okay?

It's very effective.

And by the way, it sent a signal to the cartels that their business model will be disrupted because right now, all they really need to do is get people across the border to get paid.

Correct.

And so remaining in Mexico is a big part of that.

So we filed suit last year.

We actually got a restraining order and we got an injunction.

We went all the way to the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court said the injunction will remain.

Now, we've been fighting with the Biden administration.

every month to try to get them to reimplement,

reinstate it.

It's been a challenge.

But the Supreme Court now heard it again, the argument on the merits.

Now, previously they said we were likely to prevail on the merits, so we're hopeful, but we'll see.

So that's a battle on Remain in Mexico.

So hang on just a second, because all of the reporting that is coming out

is saying that it looks like they are not going to uphold the remain in Mexico.

Well, we'll find out.

It's hard to, you know, basing it on the justices' questions is always kind of a tricky game yeah um so we don't know right that's what kind of hangs in the balance so far we've been successful in kind of pushing them not to completely abandon it right so we were able to win before but yesterday is a new ball game right

will ultimately weigh in title 42 is different title 42 accounts for about 50% of all the expulsions okay president trump created this said look we don't know where these people are coming from we they they might have and probably do have communicable diseases therefore you can turn them back based on that public health rationale.

That's Title 42.

That had remained in place

and still continued, even though it's a porous border, about 50% of the expulsions.

If that goes away, Glenn, the estimates are of 18,000 people a day coming illegally that we know of.

It would be a, right now we've seen waves and waves of illegal immigration.

It would be an absolute tsunami if that happens because we're entering a busy season anyway.

There's no good time to to do it.

This is certainly a terrible time to do it.

Biden knows it, wants to do it anyway.

And we would see, you know, Lieutenant Governor Patrick in Texas, I'll give him credit for citing the statistic.

If you extrapolate, you get rid of Romania, Mexico, you get rid of Title 42, you don't have the border wall, if you extrapolate that over his four years, that could be 30 million people coming here illegally.

That's the state of Texas.

That's five Missouri's.

Okay, they are fundamentally trying to change this country through their illegal illegal immigration policy.

So earlier this week, Glenn, we obtained a temporary restraining order preventing them from ending Title 42, but we're going to be back in court on May 13th.

So this is the fight goes on.

But those are two.

Remain in Mexico.

Title 42 are two big pieces of the Trump-era policies that we're working that Biden wants to dismantle.

How is this affecting?

I know how it's affecting Texas.

It is, I mean, it is overwhelming Texas,

especially any of these border towns.

They're just, you know, people are just being dumped off.

And there are soon there will be in many of these towns more illegals than there are citizens.

And, you know, what do you do about it?

So

how is this affecting Missouri and the rest of the country?

Every state is a border state, Glenn, because I've been to the border twice.

The problems, the criminal activity, the fentanyl, the drugs, the human trafficking, it doesn't just stop in El Paso.

It doesn't just stop in McAllen.

It ends up in Columbia, Missouri, in Joplin, Missouri, and Columbus, Ohio, and Denver, Colorado.

Every state's a border state when you have this crisis that we see at the border.

And so, you know, we've taken on human trafficking.

We see fentanyl now.

killing people in every community across this country.

Overdose deaths now account for the high, it's the highest

cause of death now for 18 to 45 year olds.

And it is flooding across the border.

A law enforcement agent told me last time I was down there, Glenn, that the economic value for the human smuggling alone is $100 million a week.

Oh, my gosh.

They're running the show.

And this administration is willingly doing it.

And my contention is that this is on purpose.

They know a reckoning is coming in November.

They want to pack the court.

They want to add states to the union.

They want to federalize our elections.

They want to fundamentally change this country forever.

And what they're doing at the border now is all part and parcel of that.

And so we've got to do everything we can to stop it.

But it's very obvious what they're doing.

Elizabeth Warren just this past weekend said, well, you know, now that they're over here, we ought to just grant amnesty.

So they're saying the quiet part out loud, and it's just a mess.

It's a disaster.

All right.

Well, the Supreme Court, are they going to come out with this decision earlier than the summer, do you think?

I mean...

No, I think they'll come down with the rest of their decisions here in a couple of months

is likely when this will come down.

Well, if Title 42 goes down,

I mean, that's almost too late then, isn't it?

I mean,

Title 42 is a big one.

And again,

and here's what the level of lawlessness, Glenn, I don't think people even appreciate sometimes.

They were talking about ending Title 42 in mid-May.

There were reports then that he was just instructing,

they were instructing Border Patrol agents just to stop enforcing Title 42 altogether even before mid-May, which is why we went in this week and said, hey, we need a temporary restraining order to prevent them from doing that before our hearing in mid-May.

So again, they're playing for keeps.

They got their pedal, the metal.

But, you know, it's going to be up to states like Missouri and Texas to push back.

We're doing it,

and we're going to do everything we can to save this republic.

Thank you very much, Eric.

I appreciate it.

Eric Schmidt, he is the Missouri Attorney General that joined with the Attorney General of Texas to try to get our borders under control.

The Glen Beck Program.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

We're glad you're here.

I don't know know if the average person is following the Twitter thing as much as those of us in the media are.

It's a big deal.

I think maybe the average person is looking at Elon Musk as a white knight that is riding in and somebody finally sticking up for them who has the clout to do it.

I think that's a universal feeling, at least for half the country.

The other half is freaking out of their mind.

So weird.

So bizarre.

All he is saying is he wants people to be able to

speak freely more often.

And he says, my definition of freedom of speech is what's legal speech.

If it's not legal or people don't want it to be legal, then they'll pass laws to make it not legal.

I really think that's something that more companies should embrace as a philosophy.

I complain about this all the time in the NFL and other sports where

teams are constantly supposed to be able to investigate some potential crime committed by one of their players and punish them outside of the legal system.

Like, just if they get, if they're charged or convicted with a crime, then you react to it.

You don't need to go and send detectives out to try to solve crimes.

That is not your job.

It's not your job as an organization that's a private business.

And I think they try to do this all the time.

If you violate a law, I don't think any of us have any problem with there being ramifications on a social network.

The problem is, of course, that it's just been one way and it's been...

It's weaponized.

And it's not nothing to do with legal or not.

It's just opinions.

So I keep coming back to this.

Like, I think Elon Musk will improve this.

I think conservatives at some level will be disappointed that it's not going to be perfect.

And at times, I don't think he's going to make decisions that we don't like.

Yeah.

You know, I mean, not just Elon Musk, but the company under Elon Musk.

And, you know, so when he does censor a conservative, people are going to freak out about it because it probably will happen.

He's talked about it already.

He's just said he's going to give people timeouts instead of permanent bans.

You know, people are going to be upset about that, I think, on the conservative side at some level.

Look, the first thing that's going to happen, day one, he takes over and says, okay, it's free.

Everybody can say what they want.

Day one, you're going to have the freaks from the fringes, both sides, coming in.

You're going to have the Jesse Smolletts who are pretending to be conservative, saying all kinds of stuff.

You know what I mean?

Everybody should just brace for that and know it's a a bunch of idiots.

And it'll be the fringes that take control of the media again, and the media will spin it.

But it won't be that way.

Here's the thing that concerns me: Elon Musk has a lot of his, you know,

he's making batteries.

He's making cars.

He's doing international trade.

Yeah.

He's involved in financing, all of these things.

Neuralink.

Yeah.

Neuralink.

That guy is messing with the U.S.

government, the Chinese government, all social media, the entire left, all media organizations on earth, anybody who has any power, the great reset, all of it.

I mean, if this guy is still standing in two years, it'll be amazing.

He'll take on quite a spell on him.

He's taking on quite a bit.

I will say too, there's this weird strain of thought that's like, okay, look, he's not going to make that much.

Yes, he might improve free speech a little bit, but I think your Twitter experience is going to be pretty much the same.

I mean, it's not going to be that much different.

People are expecting all this difference.

What has Elon Musk done that would make you believe he's going to keep this thing the same?

Nothing ever.

Nothing.

The guy makes flamethrowers.

Yeah.

People will tweet at him and say, hey, wouldn't it be funny if my Tesla honked

along with the Carol of the Bells song, and then he just installs it as a feature in his cars.

The technology is going to be vastly improved.

I think the company's going to make tons and tons more money.

He's a really beast of the world.

The problem with the money thing again is

if he, I mean, they could shut him off right now.

Just think of the great reset.

All they have to do is just go, you know what?

Twitter,

they're part of the problem.

And they'll drive all of the sponsors away.

All of the sponsors away.

So, I mean, he could be sitting here.

If they decide to do what they've done to people like us,

it takes an enormous effort to survive.

That's true.

And I just don't know.

Remember, this is not a guy who's going to violate ESG scores, or at least the E part of it.

He's the ultimate E.

He is the E at ESG.

He is.

This is something to wrap your arms around when we look at Elon Musk as a hero.

He is an environmental extremist.

He is not,

He's not even like, I love the earth.

He is building spaceships to escape the earth, partially because of global warming.

Right, but he doesn't believe in ESG.

No, he doesn't.

He hates ESG and the Great Reason.

He's totally in the right on that, but he is not going to violate the E.

No.

He's going to violate the S.

I don't have a problem if you are.

I don't either.

If you're like Elon Musk,

I respect him for building space.

He's doing what he really believes.

Good for him.

Just don't force everybody else to do it.

Yeah, there's just, I think there's this thing because he's just not crazy

on a lot of these things when it comes to free speech and gender and COVID and all these other things.

Because he's just not insane, we think, oh, this guy's conservative.

He's not.

He's not.

He's not conservative.

Nor does he want anyone to believe he's conservative.

He is really his own thing.

And

when you have $280 billion, you get to be your own thing.

I know that he is South African.

So, you know, technically, I understand.

But he is the quintessential American.

He is a guy who comes from another place.

He leaves South Africa because he doesn't want to fight in the army to suppress blacks during apartheid.

So he comes to the United States.

He has an idea.

He builds this empire.

That's what America is.

Yeah, I think it was, I want to say it was Jeremy Boring over at our friend over at the Daily Wire who tweeted something to the effect of like, Elon Musk is the greatest living American.

And of course, everyone on the left is like, he's not, he's from South Africa, you idiot.

I don't know.

I consider immigrants Americans when they come here legally.

Exactly.

That's what I think of him.

And the reason why he left was because he didn't want to serve.

What are they going to call him?

A drat, a dodge draft,

a draft dodger?

Yeah.

What are you going to call him?

I mean, there were people on the left who've been like, you know, this guy wants the return of apartheid.

Like, really, it seemed to try to go away from that.

That's why he left South Africa.

It really is amazing.

It's amazing to see this stuff happen.

And it is great to see the left expose itself.

Oh,

it is.

They are against free speech.

And I'm glad they're doing it with Elon Musk because he has the balls to continue to stand.

This is the Glenn Back program.

Let me tell you about American financing.

Look, right now, your home has great value.

That value will probably come down in the future, but you have access to whatever growth your house is now worth.

You have access to that cash.

That cash you can go to American Financing and get

in a form of a consolidation loan.

As long as you can pay all your mortgage and everything else, there is nothing better than getting out of 19%

interest and locking in 4 or 5% interest and getting those credit card bills off of your back and paid for.

Call American Financing.

See how they can help you with your finances now.

American Financing at 800-906-2440.

Let them help you now.

AmericanFinancing.net, 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 upturned to rise.

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

This is the Glenbach program.

Hello, America.

Most people in America are supporting the Ukrainians.

Most people are saying, yes, we should do more to help them.

Well, maybe we should, maybe we shouldn't, but the way we're going going about it is a bit disturbing.

Something doesn't feel right.

We talk about that in 60 seconds.

So what does the Weimar Republic, Zimbabwe, and Venezuela all have in common?

We all know

they ended up looking like our country is about to look if we can't turn the ship around on you know, this economic inflation iceberg.

Inflation is running rampant in the United States and through Europe.

Do you know inflation now in Germany is the highest it's been since 1945.

It's running at 30% inflation.

That's nuts.

So we know about printing of money, but how come we're not How come we're surprised by this inflation?

How come we don't look at the people that printed the money and say, hey, this has got to stop?

The reason why and the reason why we're going to to accept any solution is because we don't really know what causes it.

We don't know how it works.

And we don't know the people behind it.

People behind it, really, the Treasury and the Fed.

The Fed, they just loaned Japan in two quarters last year, $7 trillion.

We had to just print that money up.

That's how inflation gets to be

a real problem for countries.

There is a new book out by the Tuttle Twins.

The Tuttle Twins, I've been telling you about these books, they're for your kids in your house to teach them the basic principles.

There's one on the Fed now and inflation that I think is so important that everyone should have.

It's so critical that you understand it as well as teach it to your kids.

You can get it for free now at tuttletwinsbeck.com.

Free copy, Tuttle Twins and the Creature from Jekyll Island, TuttleTwinsBeck.com.

This is your last chance to get this free book.

It ends this week, tuttletwinsbeck.com.

Okay, so I want to go through

a couple of things.

First of all, there is real problems in China.

China is still closing everything down, and their society is collapsing.

Shanghai, there are stories now, and it's amazing because these are Americans that live in Shanghai.

And in the story, that was, I can't remember, it was an American journal.

They did not want to be identified in fear of repercussions.

And what they're saying is, as soon as this lockdown's over, I'm out of here.

I love the quote from one of them that said, the problem with this is there's no one to turn to for help.

Bingo,

now you understand the problem with an all-encompassing government.

Whenever they decide they're going to do something, there's no one to turn

for help.

Who's going to help you?

You're going to call the police?

Because that's the government.

You're going to call the politician?

Because that's the government.

You're going to call the military?

Because that's the government.

You're going to call the media?

Because that's the government.

So

it's falling apart badly.

And the ships that are stuck in port and trying to get into port, unlike anything the world has ever seen, This is much worse than it was with COVID.

Remember when we couldn't get anything?

Now it's causing all kinds of problems, and we are just at the beginning of this story.

This is an epic black swan event.

And with the war in Ukraine and the bird flu pandemic, I don't know if anybody's been paying attention to that, but that's causing real problems here in the United States.

And this is assuming now that in the next 12 months, there are no natural disasters.

We are now facing the worst global food crisis since World War II.

I want you to think about this.

The worst food crisis since World War II.

This is a problem.

Senator Roger Marshall said that we are going into a worldwide famine and quote, it is definitely going to happen.

Now let me just give you a couple of things that just, you know, the

low-hanging fruit here so you can understand what's coming.

You're going into the grocery store.

Have you noticed that there's not empty shelves, but they're not as full as they usually are.

If you've noticed that, you might have noticed that in the canned dog food.

Canned dog food is, there's starting to be a shortage in America of canned dog food.

Not going to be able able to get it.

Why?

A couple of reasons.

Chicken and turkey, because of the Asian flu now going through our bird population, which we are just slaughtering turkeys and chickens left and right.

You can't get cheap food for your dog.

You can't get the chicken and the turkey for the dog food.

Plus,

there's an aluminum can shortage.

There's a shortage of aluminum.

Those two things are only going to get worse.

Now,

if you also are heading into summer, wherever you live and there are pools around,

try buying chlorine.

You're about to see a growing problem with chlorine.

The pandemic is not the problem this time.

This is Hurricane Laura in late 2020.

It leveled the facilities of a major chlorine manufacturing plant in Louisiana.

40% of all of our chlorine is made at that plant.

Well, that was two years ago.

Why isn't that plant back online?

Because of the building supply shortage.

They can't get it back online because they don't have the supplies they need to rebuild it.

There's also the baby formula shortage that is continuing and getting worse.

Have you tried to buy bulk food?

You know, I kind of hang in the circles of preppers

and

my church is big on this.

You try to go to,

they're always like, we got food.

We got food.

Don't worry.

You can just come get food and buy the food here at a cheap price.

You can't buy it.

You can only buy it in limited supplies now.

That is remarkable.

Rice

is going to go up.

Rice is going to go way up.

The food shortages are going to get worse, and we will feel them here.

Over in Europe, they're already rationing cooking oil

because of the

Ukrainian war.

Inflation, supply chain, shortages of energy, food, raw materials, and labor are all going to accelerate this.

And the war is only going to make things worse, which brings me to two things.

First of all, Russia has just cut off a major supply of natural gas to Poland.

Gazprom just cut off the gas supplies to two countries that are both NATO members.

And it marks the first time of

Of us being able to say, yeah, Ronald Reagan said this would happen.

Why did you let them do this?

But they have become dependent on Gazprom and dependent on Russian fuel, and now they've turned it off.

It's the first time since the Soviet era

that

Russia reacted this way.

So now gas supplies are down.

We are not doing anything about it here.

In fact,

I mean, Biden is delaying more things that we could do to help with the gas supply, and he's saying no at this point for environmental reasons.

But here's what's really disturbing.

Listen to the story from the Washington Examiner.

Near the beginning of the Russian invasion in Ukraine, which commenced February 24th, U.S.

Intel provided to the Ukrainians help that defeated a Russian operation that was meant to wrest control of the airport near Kiev.

They helped and it gave the Ukrainians the ability to shoot down a Russian transport plane carrying hundreds of Russian troops according to NBC News.

Had Russia been able to maintain the control of the airport, its forces captured it for a short time, Moscow could have used it to solve many of its logistical and supply problems.

Various US defense and intelligence officials have

spoken in broad terms about the intelligence sharing with Ukrainians while frequently choosing not to get into specifics.

However, in a statement, a spokesperson for the National Security Council told the outlet, quote, we are regularly providing detailed, timely intelligence to the Ukrainians on the battlefield to help them defend their country against Russian aggression, and we will continue to do so.

General Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told the House Armed Services Committee that, quote, we have, and I'm not going to reveal in an open hearing, the intelligence we have collected and how we did all that, but this war has arguably been the most successful intelligence operation in U.S.

military history.

The chairman also pointed out that the U.S.

played significant significant role in providing Ukraine with the tools to ensure Russia did not achieve air superiority.

Quote: The fundamental significance of air defense systems in order to deny an opponent that ability to achieve air superiority and supremacy, that's what's been done by the Ukrainians.

But it was done with a huge amount of help from the United States with Stinger missiles, also

because of our intelligence feeds.

End quote.

Why

the hell are we saying these things?

There is a great article in the Federalist.

Listen to this.

As the war in Ukraine drags on, the United States is making a clash with Russia more likely with each passing week.

What are we to make of a comment from Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin that the Biden administration's goal in Ukraine is to see Russia weakened to the degree that they can't do the kinds of things that it is done in invading Ukraine.

Austin made the remark in a press conference with the Secretary of State after the pair met with Ukraine's president Zelensky in Kiev in

what was the highest level visit by U.S.

officials since Russia invaded Ukraine.

One obvious conclusion we can draw from Austin's comment is that the Biden administration is now committed openly to a policy of escalation in Ukraine.

The White House intends on keeping the war in Ukraine alive with the stated goal of weakening Moscow by continuing to pour new and more advanced weaponry onto the war-ravaged country.

Indeed, Austin and Blinken announced a new round of military aid on Monday to Ukraine, bringing the total amount to $3.7 billion since the invasion began.

After resisting pressure early in the conflict to support Ukraine with advanced weapons systems, the Biden administration has changed course.

It is now preparing to send heavy artillery, helicopters, armored personnel carriers, anti-aircraft radar systems, advanced attack drones, and other weapons.

Austin told members of the press that the Defense Department won't just send weapons, but will expand military training for Ukrainian service members in the region on certain weapon systems being provided.

Quote, delivering all of this aid is an escalation of the U.S.

involvement in the war.

Senior U.S.

military officers at a facility in Poland described accelerating logistical network for supplying weapons and material to Ukraine.

So they are sending all of this stuff over.

They're sending it into Ukraine from Poland by railroad.

Now,

did you hear

that after

these clowns were over in Ukraine meeting Wyselensky,

that just after they left the country, Russia bombed the train stations?

How did Blinken

leave Ukraine?

By train.

Minutes later, they bombed the train stations.

Imagine if there would have been a timing issue on that one.

What was it the foreign minister said from Russia this week?

Sergei Lavrov, you'll remember him from

much of the Trump-Russia

talk back in the day that the media was so obsessed with.

He came out and on state-run media said the danger for World War III was real.

The danger is serious.

It is real.

You can't underestimate it.

Also spoke about the possibility of nuclear war being real.

And, you know,

all of this stuff doesn't make any sense.

You're totally right saying,

you know, we shouldn't be announcing all this stuff all the time.

Even like, for example, the Blinken visit, right?

They announced this.

Now, what's his face from Great Britain went over there?

And

we found out about it when he was already there or had already.

It always happens.

That's the way it always happens.

We are instead saying it in advance so we're like hey on you know saturday uh blinkin's going to be over there as secretary of state now that opens you up to all sorts of issues for example even the type of thing where

a rogue group of ukrainians right who want to draw us into this

war could

could uh affect that situation.

What if one of our officials is over there and God forbid something happens to them?

Whether, I mean, of course, obviously the suspicion immediately is going to be Russian forces, but it could be anybody.

And if that were to happen, we could be drawn into this war.

And we tell them in advance we're going to be there.

Seems like a massive mistake to me.

Luckily, nothing happened.

But as you point out, it was pretty close.

I mean,

they're saying the Russians are signaling to us, don't come.

Don't do this.

Don't be involved in this.

And we keep saying, well,

Not only are we going to be involved in it, we're going to embarrass you publicly by telling everyone that we're involved in it and you can't do anything about it now as russia gets more and more desperate

and cornered so what are they going to do i so let me tell you what some are speculating is coming and it's the key date of i think it's may 15th i'll give it to you here in just a second when you donate to charity I mean, you're probably like me.

You want to make sure that it's a worthy cause, that it does what it says it's going to do.

The Tunnel to Towers Foundation, Charity Navigator, rates them four out of four.

Since 9-11, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation has been supporting America's heroes with their families.

So, when somebody goes down, a first responder or a military service member, they don't come home, and there's children left behind, they pay the mortgage to lift the financial burden off of that family so they can be stable.

Catastrophically injured veterans and first responders, Tunnel to Towers builds mortgage-free smart homes, enabling the severely injured to live more independent lives.

And now, Operation Home Base,

Tunnel to Towers, is gifting tiny homes to homeless veterans.

This is who we are.

This is how Americans behave.

And you can be involved for $11 a month at t2t.org.

That's t the number2t.org.

It's tunnel to towers, $11 a month.

Help them out.

t2t.org.

10 seconds station ID.

So

if we look at what is

happening over in Ukraine and you look at

where things could

head,

you have Putin and Russia painted into a corner.

Military seemingly teetering on collapse.

They have zero replacement capacity for most of the weapon systems that they've lost, too many high-tech components.

And unless he can dramatically change the narrative in Russia, he needs a million volunteers to join the army.

And that would be a solid six months before any of the new recruits could come online.

So there's two ways he can handle this: surrender

or

up the stakes.

So it's not the 15th, it's the 9th.

May 9th is a huge holiday and celebration in Russia.

It's the day that they beat the Nazis.

Remember, they lost like 20 million people in the war against the Nazis in Russia.

It was a horrific thing.

So they remember this, and this is a huge day of celebration.

There is a shot that May 9th is such an important day that Putin will use May 9th as a launching ground.

Possibly, I mean, some people think nukes, tactical nukes, which he will say, oh, we're not bluffing.

Your turn.

It wouldn't be an ICBM kind of thing.

This is a, you know, a tactical nuke.

It would be used, you know, over

troops or something like that.

But it is a nuke.

How would we respond?

That could be happening as soon as May 9th.

Just say a prayer that everybody stays calm until that goes and somehow or another we don't inflame the situation.

I think it is not insane.

Historically speaking, the progressives uh the fabian socialists in in great britain they wanted world war one they wanted it with bated breath they helped egg it along uh

i i just fear that there are those all over the world that feel the same way about this they want the great resets uh

Welcome tonight on my Wednesday night special, a detailed look at the war on gender and the dark money network that's driving it.

What we're witnessing is

something that was, the seeds were planted a long time ago, gender ideology.

And this is not spreading because of, you know, natural pollinization.

This is,

there are bees pollinizing giving pollen to everywhere they possibly can to make these things grow and Those bees have been very very busy

It's dangerous ideology combined with super wealthy progressives Corporations are involved international organizations and an army of nonprofits that form the poison that is currently making its way through the body of America.

Dark Money Network, the funding of the war on gender tonight only on Blaze TV.

It's my special at 9 p.m.

We'll see you there.

9 p.m.

Blazetv.com, Blaze TV, YouTube, and Pluto.

Now,

I have been talking to you about a parallel economy.

And I want to bring to you different things that people are doing to help.

And we are playing

a nasty game of catch up.

I talked about the Tides Foundation, what, 15 years ago.

The Tides Foundation,

this network of money

just is astounding, as you will see tonight, on what the left is doing.

And it's all shady.

I don't want to be involved in anything shady, but I do want to stop giving my money to places that are not helping.

There is a new credit card that is coming out, and I want to make sure I understand it.

The credit card, it's a credit card for conservatives.

It's called COIN, C-O-I-G-N.

And Rob Collins is the guy who's launching this.

He's the founder.

Rob, how are you, sir?

I'm good.

Thanks for having me on.

This is a real honor.

Longtime listener.

So really honestly,

being on your show.

So people, so they know who you are.

You founded the American Action Network.

You ran the National Republican senatorial campaign in 2014, which was a good year.

You also were the confirmation Sherpa

for

Neil Gorsuch with Donald Trump.

Okay.

So you've been around.

You know the game that everybody is playing.

Tell me what's happening here with COIN.

Well, as you just described, I spent a lot of time of my 20s, 30s in politics and,

you know,

invested a lot of that energy I had to help win elections and I loved it and it was great.

But

I just started to see that while politics is critical and that's how we make our policies, we got to start innovating in the private sector.

We got to start disrupting the model because

it is so skewed against

40, 50 million Americans that if we don't innovate in the private sector, we're never going to be able to catch up.

I mean,

the Tai Foundation, as you said,

the top 10 10 credit cards have given it over a million and a half dollars.

And let me assure you, there is no analogous contribution for groups that

think differently than the Tide Center.

And conservatives just have been left out.

And our voices, you know, sometimes they rise up and we've seen that in the last week.

But generally, it's just a dull murmur because we're spread throughout the credit system.

You know, we talk about it, we complain to one another.

But for the largest ideological group in in America, we're out of the public square.

You know, we have to whisper even amongst ourselves about things that we don't like.

And this is just a way for folks who like to talk about it or folks who are just quiet but want to give back to know two things.

One, with Coin, you're going to get a great credit card.

You're going to get 1% cash back, all the protections, Visa, all the stuff you expect from every other credit card you ever had.

But every time you swipe, Coin,

our company will take a piece of the merchant fee and contribute it to conservative charities.

And we're going to have a system where folks will be able to vote and feel like, you know, hey, I actually did something.

They asked me to do something.

I got my card.

I used it.

And then, you know, once a quarter, we're going to have four or five charities will put up for

a vote.

And I voted for a charity and they got, you know, $40,000, $50,000 to do good things that I really support.

And, you know, next time I'll have some different charities.

But, you know, our biggest thing is

trying to help people

find that voice again and find that collective action that says, hey,

you know, listen to us and also feel good that their commerce is investing in things that they believe in.

I think that's really important.

I'm very concerned about...

the ESG standards and the banking community.

And this is still tied to the banking community, right?

You're using MasterCard and Visa as your backbone.

Right?

Well, you know, yes.

I mean, just disrupting is hard.

You can't

50 years.

Believe me, I know.

Yeah, you can't see 50 years of control to the left and say,

we like it back, please.

I can tell you, I mean, we have true patriots who, as investors, who

because we went to the respectable places, we went to the venture funds

and they say, we would start by saying, hey, we have a, you know, 40% of the American public that's looking for something.

We have the market research.

And they'd say, great.

And we'd say conservative and they'd say not interested.

So, I mean, we had to.

Yeah.

I mean, these are, you know, conservatives, longer tenure in their job, own their own home, own their own car, married.

You know, they're, they're, they are the cream of the credit crop.

And yet we had, we would, we would get our doors, the door slammed in our face because we'd say the C-word.

So we'd, so we, we had to go to, to really to, to people who, who understand the movement and are willing to invest in parallel economy,

startups.

And if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be on your show today.

So that's just the reality of where we are.

What is the main goal?

You see this in five years.

What is your hope that this turns into?

A,

we can donate tens of millions, hundreds of millions of dollars to conservative charities.

Now, wait, hang on just a second.

When you say conservative charities, what kind of charities are you for?

I know it's going to be up for for a vote, but are you thinking,

for instance, like First Liberty, ones that are defending things in the court or,

you know, like,

you know, something that is going to rescue people?

I think there's two ways to look at it, which is, you know, we'd love to have people suggest charities.

We launched yesterday and we've already had, you know, probably 30 or 40 emails of people saying, hey, consider this one.

So we'd like to have a rotation and we'd like to have, broad categories.

Like I heard earlier, you were talking about Tunnels to Towers.

I mean, we'd love to partner with great veterans charities that aren't afraid of conservatives.

Education, religious freedom,

smaller, smarter government, conservation, kind of offer folks.

Because

we want to have a broad spectrum, but we want to rotate out the charities.

We'd love to find smaller charities that are starting up and give them a little boost, but also support bigger ones.

mean, we're not, you know, we really, the biggest thing for us is we want to make sure we're conservative and we want to make sure that if our folks, you know, if coin money is going our customers' money, that they deliver.

They're transparent, you know,

that the charity rating firm said these are good charities and that they really, that the ROI for our folks is tangible.

That's really important to us.

So how do people get involved with COIN?

You can go to our website,

C-O-I-G-N.com, coin.com, and like us on, you know, whatever social media, you know, Facebook, we're all over the place.

And just try to, and then just tell your friends.

I mean, instead of saying, you know, under, you know, behind closed doors, isn't this so terrible?

Like, tell your friends, join this.

And let's, you know, let's start, let's start having open conversations and let's get back kind of where we've always been as a country, which is A, you can speak your mind, but also you don't have, you know, the corporations funding causes that, like,

it's not enough that they push their own worldview.

They don't like us, and they're trying to push us out.

Yeah.

And, and, and, and, you know, indoctrinate our kids and tell us what to think and how to act when it should be, you know what, like you're a customer of ours, and we respect you, not you should respect us.

I know that we have, um, you know, we have a sponsor, Patriot Mobile, and they've done the same thing.

They're on the same cell tower, so they're they're renting space from these big guys so they could provide the coverage.

But I know I'm a member because I don't want to give the big cell companies any of my money.

I know I have to, you know, Patriot Mobile is paying them a little bit for the space on the tower, but at this point, that's the best option we have.

I want to stop giving these people money.

And this is just like Patriot Mobile, this is another way to do it with your credit card.

So if you have Visa, MasterCard, or anything, you might want to consider today going to coin.com.

That's C-O-I-G-N.

Any reason why you spelled it that way other than because you couldn't get coin.com?

You nailed it.

Okay.

All right.

We wanted a short, clean website.

We wanted a short, clean name.

And we know we'll have a little

name building to do.

But

just, you know, we like the alliteration here.

Coin card for conservatives.

Coin, C-O-I-G-N.com.

Coin.com.

Rob, thank you very much.

Let us know how it's going.

We'd love it.

Thank you.

Appreciate it.

You bet.

Bye-bye.

All right.

I want to talk to you a little bit about inflation soaring to record highs.

And your credit cards are going to soar to record highs as well.

Most people are going to have to put their life on credit card.

And this is going to be a problem because the banks are going to start moving that credit card interest rate up higher and higher and higher.

It is,

gosh, it's the impoverishing of America.

It really is.

19%,

I think it's 19.9 is what the average credit card payer is

paying right now.

19%.

You can lower that down to, you know, into the fours or five.

If you take the value of your house and you take your credit cards, I bet your house has probably grown.

$20,000, $30,040, $50,000 in price.

That price is going to start to go down again.

But right now, you have access to that cash.

May I suggest, don't put yourself in a worse situation and then go out and use the credit cards again.

Take that 19% interest rate, get it down to 5% in a consolidation loan, pay that thing off as fast as you can, and do it while you have access to the money before your house starts to lose value again.

It's American Financing.

This is the Glenn Back Program.

Evanston Skokie School District number 65

has just adopted a radical gender curriculum that teaches pre-kindergarten through third-grade students to celebrate the transgender flag and break the gender binary established by white colonizers.

This is ridiculous.

Are you telling me that

Native Americans didn't know the difference between male and female?

That there were 100 different genders with

Africans in Africa?

Are you kidding me?

They are doing an experiment now with neopronouns such as Z, Zir,

and TRI.

The Chicago Area District's LGBTQ Plus Equity Week,

administrators of the teachers union adopted last year.

Curriculum begins in pre-kindergarten, a series of lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity.

The lesson plan opens with an introduction to the rainbow flag and teaches students that each color in the flag has a meaning.

The teacher also presents the transgender flag and the basic concepts of gender identity, explaining that

we call people with more than one gender or no gender non-binary or queer.

Finally, the lesson plan has the teacher leading the class to create a rainbow flag, which has the instructions to quote, gather students on the rug, ask them to show you their flags, and proudly hang the class flag where they can all see it.

There are those children who feel like a girl and a boy, or like neither a boy or a girl, and we can call these children transgender.

This is from the curriculum.

Students are expected to be be able to explain the importance

of the rainbow flag and trans flag and are asked to consider their own gender identity.

Kindergarteners read two books that affirm transgender conversion, study photographs of boys in dresses, and learn details about the transgender flag and then perform a rainbow dance.

Okay, let me just tell you something.

Last one out, turn off the lights.

I mean, this is really, look at what we've done.

Our kids, we started in the 90s saying, you know what, everybody gets a trophy.

And now because of that,

now all these years later, we knew that was wrong.

We knew that.

The majority of Americans knew that was wrong.

But the majority of Americans did nothing, didn't say anything about it.

And we all got trophies and we all bitched about it at home.

Now that generation is now in school and exiting school and they're crying all the time.

It's not fair.

Of course they think that.

We allowed that to happen.

These people are incapable

of a free capitalist society.

They're incapable.

Do you know to be an entrepreneur, it requires great risk, great pain.

If you're not willing to risk, you have to work for somebody else and just do as you're told.

Do you think Elon Musk got where he was because he was afraid of risk?

He was afraid somebody would say something bad, that something bad might happen, that he might get hurt.

No.

Do you think that happened with the people in the space program?

I don't know.

It could blow up.

They knew that.

They were willing to do it anyway.

Unless we teach our children the truth.

And I mean right now.

Do not repeat the past.

Everybody gets a trophy.

No they don't.

No they don't.

Hey kids come on over here.

We're going to play a sport where only one team gets the trophy.

You either win or you lose.

That doesn't make you losers.

It just means you didn't do as well as they did.

Better luck next time.

It is time to stand for the truth.

Otherwise, we're doomed as a nation.

And last one out, hit the lights.

If we have lights.

This is the Glenn Back program.

Legend has it that once upon a time, there was a line of fashionable and customizable belts.

Radio show starts here in just seconds.

Got no room to compromise.

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

Stand up straight and hold the line.

It's a new day, I'm

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

This is the Glenbeck program.

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenbeck Program.

I've got a few stories that just defy

category explanation.

It proof that truth is stranger than fiction because fiction has got to make sense.

We stop in the

news stories that just don't fit this universe in 60 seconds.

You know, I made a lot of people mad over the years, and almost to a person, they all asked me the same question, how do you sleep at night?

And I say quite well.

Quite well, honestly.

In fact, I should just give them a a card for mypillow.com because, man, that'll change everything, you know?

Now, I don't know how they sleep at night, even with, you know, a My Pillow.

Maybe it's because they just hate Mike Lynn, they hate Mike Lindell so much, they just won't do it.

But the Giza Dream Sheets, ah, you'll sleep like a baby.

For the moment, the Giza Dream Sheets are 60% off.

That's as low now as $39.99 if you use the promo code Beck.

All MyPillow products come with a 60-day money-back guarantee.

It's mypillow.com.

Radio listener specials is what you click on, you put in my name Beck, and

you'll find the Giza Dream Sheets and all their other specials, which will also help you sleep well at night.

I mean,

unless you're a communist Marxist that just wants to destroy America, then I don't know how you do it.

MyPillow.com, promo code Beck.

Stu, this is going to come as a surprise to you.

But

Diamond Blount.

Diamond Blount is somebody that was convicted

of rape.

And Diamond is like, okay, well, you know,

that was before I became Diamond.

You know, that's when I was Ramel

Blount.

Okay.

Now I'm Diamond.

And so a judge in New York.

So your entire criminal record should be wiped out, right?

Well,

maybe.

Maybe.

I mean,

she did go to prison for rape.

Oh, but because he was now identifying as a woman, he was housed in the women's facility.

Oh.

Good.

This is one of those things we've always used as an example of the absurd possibilities if this were to continue.

No, it's good to know that it is actually happening in real life.

Yeah.

So while he was a resident, I love that.

A resident of the Rose M.

Singer Center, the section of the prison.

Not a prisoner, but a residence.

A resident.

It was a section of the prison.

Maybe it had drapes and everything else, and maybe sewing machines for the women, you know, the women folk, they like kitchens.

Like Diamond.

You know, like Diamond, sure.

But apparently, Diamond also likes to violently rape women in in a bathroom.

Diamond does?

Diamond does.

Are you talking about Rommel?

Nope, Diamond.

Because Rommel did do that.

But you're not saying Diamond did it in the middle.

No, Diamond did it as well.

Wow.

What are the odds?

What are the odds?

No, I don't.

They're both related.

I mean, they're both named Blunt.

I think they're both related.

But what's the odds that both of them violently raped women?

I don't think the percentage chances of this occurring would be anything over 100%.

Well, I have to tell you,

I'd like to side with you, but I don't know

the lesbian experience.

Right.

You're not well versed in that.

No, because you are not.

I'm not a lesbian.

Well, I actually am a lesbian.

I am only attracted to women.

So

I think maybe that.

No, so that was rape.

Okay, next story that just doesn't seem to make sense to me.

CNN executives, when they started their streaming platform that lasted a full four weeks,

I'd like to spend the time counting, but it's just too one, two,

three.

It's just too high of a number to spend that kind of time counting the weeks.

The CNN executives thought that they could attract 30 million global subscriptions

because they

broke this down.

Apparently, there's a memo with this.

29 million CNN super fans.

They believe there are 29 million.

They believed.

Hard D.

Hard D.

There's a hard stop on that one.

Yeah.

They believed that there were 29 million super fans.

Now,

I don't know where they come up with that number, but most of those super fans feel trapped at the airport.

Just saying.

Right.

They are in a very long delay to go to Albuquerque.

Yes.

And CNN happens to be on the television.

That does not make a super fan.

No.

It doesn't even make a person who's a man.

No, it makes a super max.

It isn't even in people who

would be enticed to watch it for free.

No.

They're certainly not going to pay for it.

No, no, no.

And

if you had to make an honest guess, a guess of the number, legitimately, the number of CNN super fans,

and you were in that meeting and they were saying this, no joking around, what would you place that number at?

8,300.

Yeah,

I would say super fans globally,

I would say less than 100,000.

Much less than 100,000.

You have to include the insane.

You have to include.

Way more people.

The insane people.

Don't

be trash about them.

No, I'm not saying all insane.

I'm saying there's a subset of insane people.

The insane people of the world may be more likely to delve into the world of CNN Plus, but they are not exclusively.

Right.

Well, the problem is all of those people subscribed.

They just did it in their imaginary world.

Right.

So those super fans are still enjoying CNN Plus.

The fact that they had a legitimate estimate,

or not a legitimate estimate, but an estimate that someone provided them that they would have 30 million subscribers is crime.

I think they're blaming McKinsey for this, the consulting outfit, which is one of the the most world-renowned.

Were they the ones that came up with

10 million people?

I've heard them blamed for it.

I don't know for sure if it was them, but that is who is at least getting the shade from inside sources.

Sure.

Well, you can't blame any of the people working at CNN.

They're above approach.

Well, as you know, Glenn, we at this time do not have enough information to judge whether this was a success or something.

I heard that from the potato.

You heard a potato say that?

Yeah, I think it was a potato.

It It was a potato in a suit, an ill-fitting suit.

Really?

Yeah.

And he was like, we can't really judge, you know, if this is a success or not.

How could one know?

What information has been provided to make a determination?

$300 million spent.

No real subscribers.

Other than this, though, and the fact that it's been shut down already,

what information do we have as to judge whether it was successful?

Other than those things?

We don't have any.

have any.

So it's too early to know.

I think

my thought is by the year 2318,

we will have a beginning of the understanding as to whether CNN Plus was a success or failure.

Sure.

It's going to take that much time.

Yeah.

This is just too important a project.

The most important thing CNN has done since its launch.

It's at least 75 years before we can get to that.

I mean, they've got as much information as the CDC

and the FDA.

It's got to wait.

Never going to know.

So

Ahiko Kondo from Japan

has just married Hatsum Miku,

which is lovely.

She's a fictional computer synthesized pop singer.

And he was very disappointed because he said no one in his family showed up for the wedding.

You're kidding me.

And I would just

like to say that's one of the first things that's come out of Japan that has made sense to me in quite a long time.

Quite a long time.

I think that's the way we should be.

You know, we should...

In America,

I'm not so sure that would happen.

I think a lot of people would go,

you don't want to hurt his feelings.

You don't deny that that is a fictional character and just on his computer.

That's his love.

We got to bet.

Love wins always.

Love wins.

See, I think I would get, if that invitation came in the mail, my wife would say, oh, we're not going to that.

And I would say, are you kidding me?

I got to see this.

I've got to be a part of this situation.

I would go with you under that guys.

I'd be like, yeah.

Oh,

geez.

There's material for weeks.

Where are you guys going on your honeymoon?

And he should have invited us.

We would have come.

I would have flown to Japan to watch that thing happen.

That would have been a fun ceremony.

Well, here's one.

A man with nine wives.

Nine

wives.

Nine wives.

Nine wives.

He has just been married,

crazily, in a church in Brazil.

And he says that

He just has a sexual appetite that just can't be satiated with just one wife.

He sounds like a dream come true, really.

And so he tried to have sex by appointment, but he said that was just too difficult because there were times that he was thinking about the other girl and he wanted to be with her.

It would be easier if you just kind of pick on demand, right?

You'd walk in.

That's what you select.

It's like when you walk into

7-Eleven, they have a bunch of different flavors of monster energy drinks.

You don't want to have just one that you would schedule in advance.

I don't always have Cool Ranch Doritos.

Right.

You might want nacho cheese.

You might want spicy nacho.

You might want that spicy chili, which is spicy sweet chili, which is delicious.

Yeah, it's really good.

Sometimes I, you know, I, I just want a candy bar.

You know?

Mm-hmm.

And you should be able to have whatever you want.

Whatever, whenever you want to.

Whenever, whenever you want.

Within.

Asterisk, within the bounds of holy matrimony.

That is a really important thing.

I don't want.

It would be really a bad thing if people decided they could just have sex outside of marriage when this is going on.

Instead, marry as many people as you can and then just rotate through.

That's the godly way of doing it.

I think it's going to last.

Well, now I should say, he married, he married eight.

He's already lost one.

No.

Yes.

He lost one.

Yeah.

She,

on second thought, you know, when she sobered up,

she thought, I might have had too much communion wine here.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

I don't.

I thought they were my bridesmaids.

And apparently, no, they were all all his wife.

This is why you marry fictional characters.

Yeah.

They always stick around.

Yeah.

And they don't see.

You can delete them.

Right.

You know what I mean?

Boop.

They're gone.

Let me tell you about Goldline, the premier precious metals provider in America.

Goldline clients, about 30% of goldline clients buy silver instead of gold.

Silver, I think, is going to become more and more important because

it's not as expensive as gold, and it's better for trading.

You know, hey, you've got some collector coins.

I have some collector coins.

Definitely, you know, not currency, but we can trade.

Good for barter, you know.

By the way, we have a Ben Franklin Silver Round that I designed.

It's sold out every week, but a new supply has now been minted.

You can call and say that I sent you, when you buy the Ben Franklin silver round, you'll get a mind-your-business bar of silver with every purchase that includes silver Ben Franklin rounds.

The more you buy, the more you get for free.

It's silver.

Good reason to have silver.

Call them and ask them why.

Call Goldline today, find out how to get started.

It's 866Goldline, 866Goldline, or goldline.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

Tonight, on the Wednesday night special, a detailed look at the war on gender and the dark money network that is driving it.

You know, the problem is we have been played for fools in many ways.

We're a very,

I think, accepting nation.

You know, we're the most, by far, the most diverse nation in the history of the world.

There is nobody that has had this, I mean, because we're all pretty much,

we're all from someplace else.

And we came over here and we united around a few, you know, really important principles like, hey, leave other people alone and don't steal their stuff, you know?

And

we're very tolerant.

Because of that, it has been used against us.

And now we're called a bigot for any reason whatsoever.

This gender ideology thing is really, really, very dangerous.

There was just a story that I gave you out of the Chicago area where they're teaching it to preschool kids

that, you know, you don't have to be a boy or a girl.

This is insanity.

It's insanity.

The culture is not changing just because

times are changing.

This is a well-calculated plan and also a very well-funded plan.

This is not a new civil rights movement.

This is a dangerous ideology, and it is coming from super wealthy progressives and corporations and international organizations that are funding all of this.

Tonight, I will show you that connection and that collection of people from the nonprofits to the international organizations,

corporations, and the very super wealthy progressives, you need to see how this is.

This is not something that is naturally springing up.

We've done our homework, and tonight, we give it to you.

The Dark Money Network funding the war on gender.

If you're not a subscriber, will you please become a subscriber?

Use the promo code GLENN at blazetv.com.

That's tonight at 9 o'clock, right after a new Stew Does America.

You've got to say it more excited because the music's on.

Stew Does America.

Yeah.

Yeah, tonight.

8 p.m.

Eastern.

And then we're going to have a, are you going to be popping on the show today, I think, Glenn, to kind of give a little preview.

I always enjoy our conversations.

Not one of us.

Not sincerely, but I do.

For public consumption, I enjoy our conversations.

Okay.

All right.

They're wonderful.

Yeah.

They really are.

For the air, I'll play along.

Sure.

It's great.

It's a great time, and I think people will.

It actually is.

it's weird because we talk for three hours with each other and then i get on your show and it's like a completely different conversation it's weird yeah at least because you're the host yeah i guess that is the way it works it's nice to be the guest it's great to be the guest the guest is the place to be it is because you just come on and you just get to people ask you questions and you just rant and then you go home and you don't care if the show succeeds or not yeah you just like you know i don't care you just

were we on the air don't know don't care don't know don't care don't care don't care if the thing fails if it falls in the toilet gets canceled tomorrow not my fault.

Yeah.

It's the host's fault.

Yeah.

And it is in this particular case.

Can I play NMSNBC has Twitter

disinformation concerns?

The big lies still loom large over the party, which has gone all in on disinformation to serve its political ends.

And now, news yesterday that Elon Musk, who seems to, at least at this point, possess more expansive views on speech than Twitter's current management, What?

Has purchased Twitter.

That has sent shockwaves through much of the anti-disinformation political universe.

Musk's purchase of Twitter comes after years in which we've all witnessed and lived through the power and the peril of rampant disinformation.

Really?

The New York Times puts it like this: quote: The 2016 U.S.

presidential election and the Brexit vote that same year gave Silicon Valley executives, U.S.

elected officials, and the public a peek into what can go wrong

on social media.

Look at that.

Do you see what she's saying?

In 2016,

there was no Russian collusion.

I mean, there was some,

but not what they said it was.

Not collusion.

And no collusion.

And there wasn't enough to make a difference in that particular one.

There was the kind of the opening foray into that, but not enough to make difference.

And then the Brexit vote.

So she's saying we see what happens.

I mean, look at that.

Look what happened.

You allow speech.

And you allow people vote for things I don't like.

Yes.

That's their standard.

Yeah.

And Nicole Wallace, I've never seen a clip of her where she doesn't look like she's about to burst into tears.

I think they all are.

I think they are.

Again,

what is he advocating for?

He's advocating for people to be able to say the things they want to say.

He's advocating for a transparent process if you do violate their rules.

If I said this to you, if I said this to you in 2002, Stu, we are going to get to a place to where you won't be able to say

that you agree with the former president.

They've banned the president on all, he's not talking, he's not allowed to talk out in the open unless he's given a speech at a private thing.

He's not allowed to use any of the social services or any of the networks.

They just don't cover him.

And you can't say that a man can't have a baby.

You would have never believed it.

I would have been like, what the hell is a social network?

Yeah.

You know, that's what is it?

No, it's true, though.

I mean, you would have never

believed it.

I wouldn't have ever believed it.

And you know me, I've been on the cutting edge of the crazy stuff.

I would have never believed that we would be here.

And you could tell that they're not sincere.

I mean, they keep arguing for people to have no restrictions on voting.

So the people, they want the fringiest of fringe voters with almost no interest in politics on a day-to-day basis to be able to vote, who are obviously the people who are most affected by disinformation.

They don't have any heartfelt foundations, right?

So they can be won over very easily.

They want those people voting because they know those people vote for them.

That's why they care.

It has nothing to do with disinformation.

They just want control.

The Glenn Back program.

She should write a series of books called control.

That's a good idea.

Brooke wrote in about her dog's experience with rough greens.

She says, I wasn't sure my German shepherd would eat it or even like it, but I heard you talking about Uno and how much he liked it, and I decided to try the free trial.

Well, she loves rough greens.

We were out for about two days once, and she wouldn't eat.

She was protesting until her monthly bag arrived.

Don't I know it, Brooke?

She's been bright-eyed, energetic lately.

I cannot recommend rough greens highly enough.

I'm with you.

It's really an amazing thing.

Now, it's not a dog food.

If you are feeding your dog kibble food, that's really where it's going to really make an impact.

Vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants, you name it.

If it's healthy for your dog, it's probably in Rough Greens.

The folks at Rough Greens are so confident that you're going to be like Brooke and her dog or me and my dog.

Your dog's going to love it.

They have a special deal.

You just go to roughgreens.com slash Beck.

They'll give you a free trial bag.

It's free.

All you do is pay for shipping.

Make sure your dog likes it and then order your next bag.

And boy, you will see a difference in your dog I have.

I want to welcome back a very good friend of the program, somebody, if you're a longtime listener of this program, you might remember Riaz Patal.

He is now the founder of Connect Effect.

He is a TV producer, a two-time Emmy nominee.

Couldn't get it done, huh?

Northa Stewart, those times.

And she wasn't even there.

She wasn't there.

But

he's also a guy that I think we met in 2015 or 2016.

And

there was a shooting.

You were a Muslim, you're a gay man, and there was a shooting, and you were, you know, the media was telling you, this is really, this is what's happening.

And then Trump came along, and you're like, okay, I got to know what's really going on.

Yeah.

And you went up to Alaska

and said, I just want to meet these people because I can't live in a world if that's really what I'm surrounded by.

Yes.

And you found out that's not.

Not remotely.

Not remotely.

That 50% of the population are not the cliché that I was led to believe.

They're actually real human beings.

And we had such a great time getting together.

I still follow you on Instagram.

We chat from time to time.

But

the thing that always

struck me was how honest you always were.

You were really looking for information.

You weren't trying to prove anything.

You just wanted to know what the truth was.

And how different...

Our understanding of the news was because you lived in your world.

Yes.

And I lived in my world.

And I remember putting things up on the chalkboard and you said none of those things happen.

None of those things I knew about.

Yeah.

None of them.

And they were at all.

Big stories to conservatives.

It was weird.

Never met.

And it used to be the strangest thing when I would come here and visit you that I'd get on the plane and leave the LA feeds and arrive here completely different news, completely different stories.

And I'm like, this is insane.

Two different worlds.

So you've been trying to bridge the gap

for a long time.

And we talked about shows where you could actually talk.

Things have only gotten worse.

Yes, absolutely.

And I think that was the big problem was the screen world.

And I call it the screen world.

All the edits that magically appear for us on our phone is the screen world.

Is not the real world.

It's a very particular point of view and very highly edited.

And so to me, for seven years, what is the truth?

And every time I would bring people together, seven people, 10 people, 50 people in Alaska or Dallas or New York, They were never the cliches that I was led to believe.

And I constantly was wondering, how do they connect?

connect and why wouldn't they connect and really it came down to the power of the screen world is now the way we see the world not people can be standing in front of us and we cannot see them or their humanity because we see them through the edits that we think we know about it is really terrifying because that's you know we were talking off the air children suicide and depression is off the charts.

Unbelievable.

Unbelievable.

And I think it's because of this.

There's nothing real.

You don't really know people.

There's no re, and COVID only made it worse.

No real connections going on.

And that's the thing.

It's so funny.

Everyone seems to be lacking true authentic connection.

And the thing that I realized over seven years is that true connection is not remotely information-based, even if we're all living in an information age, that the words we exchange are 7% of communication.

It's the body language, it's the tone, it's all of those things that create humanity.

None of those you get from a screen.

You just get the words, which is why sequentially posting at each other gets us absolutely nowhere fast.

And so I kept trying to think, what is a way to do this to hard reset actually physical people in a room so that they can see each other and not see the edits that they think they know about each other.

And that took seven years of testing and testing and testing.

So

how are you going to do this?

So it's called Connect Effect.

And what it is, it's an in-person, it's an entertainment experience.

And it's designed that way because I reached out to a policy institute and they said, everything we're doing about bridging and facilitated conversations is not working.

People just show up with more information and they just keep exchanging it and no one actually listens and no one actually learns or is impacted.

So it was, how can I get people in a physical room, and we do 50 to 100 people at a time, to really see each other, the people in the room, the real world, and not the screen world, not seeing each other through the screen world.

And it takes, it's a hard reset of their humanity.

So how do you do that?

Because I would think that you would, depending on where you are, you would have a a lot of conservatives show up and some very timid liberals or a lot of liberals show up and some very timid conservatives and you would fight an agenda yes you know what i mean so how do you how do you how are you getting that the thing is the actual connect effect what it is is this is that when you connect with someone in a meaningful in-person way in person human to human you'll talk openly and honestly it's how we met when we sat down opposite each other in 2016 and i came with my information we just looked at each other and we're like oh you're just a human being wants to know.

Once you have that connection, you'll talk openly and honestly.

When you talk openly and honestly, you will understand and that understanding deepens the connection.

That's the connect effect.

Now people are talking without the connection and it's just this exchanging of information.

So they don't talk first.

They sit back and from the moment the doors open, there's music, there's images on the screen, two sides of stories that people have never seen, whether it's edits they've seen in the news, oh yeah, that's what CNN ran, that's what Fox, side by side.

And it constantly says, which edit do you see?

Which edit do you not see?

And we're constantly running through history.

Here's an edit you do know, an edit.

So before we even start the program, they're seeing

that they're only seeing one edit.

And so I would imagine it's very important to let the audience know.

That you're not trying to change them politically.

Not at all.

You're just trying to say you don't know the whole story.

You don't know the whole story.

And the whole story doesn't necessarily even matter when you are trying to fix things in your world.

You and I did a podcast special a while ago where we brought seven Americans together to talk about guns.

It was so great.

And they just spiraled and spiraled until the NRA firearms instructor and the Mom's Demand Action woman spent time together, made a joke, and suddenly all the defenses were gone because they had connected.

And then they talked openly, they understood, and they realized that we're 90% there.

But when they were all in a room guarded with their information,

before we started, we were both concerned this could be a nightmare.

Absolutely.

And by the end, I think the Marxist professor was like, this was great.

Yeah.

Yeah, because they stop seeing each other through the screens.

And the screens come at you all day, every day.

And the way the screens work is for attention extraction is what they call it at Google.

That's all they're doing.

And so whatever you like, they'll send you more of it.

If you're angry about this, they'll send you more.

Because the real facts are that anger makes money.

The easiest shift to create in a human being is anger.

Yeah.

What travels faster than any virus?

Fear.

And so if the screens are constantly making you feel the world is burning constantly, then you are never going to be able to connect.

But they make cha-ching, cha-ching, cha-ching more money the more you're watching.

And so we hard reset the shared humanity, the people in the room.

And it's very interesting because at some point they start realizing, wait, I was going to say that, but I only know that from a screen.

And so we say to people, talk about what you know.

Did you work on the front line of COVID?

Great.

Tell us about that.

If you didn't, it's your time to sit back and listen because you received a screen edit that was designed to make you upset and angry to look at more, to look at more, to look at more, to look at more ads.

And so I'm trying to get people, the amazing thing is when people meet in the real world, they're constantly engaging each other with what they know from the screen, which has little to no relevance to the person that they're talking to.

The first one is happening where?

In Orange County?

In Orange County this Saturday, April 30th.

I'm working with an organization called Civic Genius, and I really was

relentless when I was finding a partner that they did not have a political affiliation.

Because I cannot tell someone what the way they should think.

I don't live their life.

I haven't lived their lives thousands and thousands of days as them.

That's not, it's actually not the, I shouldn't say that.

The problem is

people who are trying to tell people what to think, not how to think, what to think.

You will believe this.

I don't care what side it's on.

You believe this and there's no compromise.

You must believe this or you are bad.

Bad.

That's what's killing us.

Yeah.

That's what's killing us.

And when you and I met years ago, I came in with this perception of what I thought you were.

And when we sat, the humanity clicked in and we were able to talk.

And all I want, the whole point of this, is I just want people to stop fighting in their families and stop fighting in their communities.

Because if you can't sit down with the people in your community

to solve your problems,

no one wins.

So what age group are you doing?

This is mostly 18 and over, but 18 to 80.

It can be anyone.

And

when you go,

do you have to participate or can you just watch?

You can.

So everyone sits, and everything's designed.

The way the seats are set up, the way the screen works, it's all highly, highly, highly produced.

So everyone sits in this very large U.

So there's no hiding in the back.

But how people.

It's like an AA meeting.

It's like you can't go anywhere.

You must stay.

But not everyone speaks.

And who speaks is random.

It's actually done through a way inside their pouches.

Some people have a chip and some people don't.

And the people with blue chips have to stand up and then they have a conversation.

It's a way, but before you.

So So you're not speaking to, I mean, you are speaking in front of the whole group, but you're not speaking and having interaction with the whole group.

No.

The whole group is kind of channeling it through different conversations.

Correct.

And a lot of them, we say it's one story told between two worlds.

One is the real world, all of us in the room, and the other is all the media we have on the screen.

And so the screen plays a large part in it with edits and media coming at the audience, showing them, well, what is true?

Because if this is true on the screen, it can't be true in the real world.

And we're constantly juxtaposing the two.

and it really ends up being this mind-blowing hard reset.

So do you have, are you going to have video there?

Okay.

Can you return maybe and show me some video and give me the results of what this happened?

We can.

We actually have two tests on the website, connecteffect.us under testimonials.

Oh, okay.

One we took women and we said if women once connected, could they solve each other's most deep challenging question?

So we took these total strangers, didn't know each other, connected them, and they're reading these unbelievable, vulnerable questions like, why am I single my whole life?

Why do I draw men that would abuse me?

And the audience helps them find the answer.

That's unbelievable.

It's incredible because all that happens is we have a problem, we go to an expert.

We have a problem, we go to an expert, diagnosed, medicated.

Sometimes we just need opinions of other people and social buffering, and that doesn't exist anymore.

So that was one test.

The other was at a university because we had students at this university afraid of each other, not just physically, but ideologically.

Oh, yeah.

And so we thought, could we take students once connected after 60 minutes, would they be open to the other side's side's ideology?

And you look at the video, they were.

They saw the whole thing differently.

And they realized that all these people in the real world in the room are not the enemies that they perceive coming through the edits.

So how do you get people to, I mean, are you just traveling the country?

Are you asking for places to host you?

We are.

We're looking for organizations.

We're looking for churches, synagogues, anywhere where people have stopped talking, which is pretty much everywhere.

Everywhere.

We're looking, and it's not just led by me.

It's a system that's replicated and designed to to be done by many people.

The system is called EPIC.

Forbes described it was a game changer a few years ago.

It's a different way of approaching people that you have to engage through equalization.

That's the E.

If I don't look at you as an equal, what of the point are we talking about?

Like, why am I talking to you if I don't think you're an equal?

And then beyond that, the P is personalization.

I don't care what you read because whatever you read,

you've got stats, I've got stats.

You've got articles, I've got articles.

Now we go nowhere.

What do you know?

What have you experienced of racism?

What have you experienced of suffering?

That's what I need to know.

But if you keep bringing, I kept bridging these conversations and I have seven people in the room and 480 opinions.

And suddenly Nancy Pelosi was there and Mitch McCollin.

I'm like, why are they in the room?

They're certainly not going to be helping you fix your problem in your school.

And so it's personalization, then information gathering.

The thing I tell people, stop talking about what you know.

We know what you know.

Ask people, what do I not know?

That is the, I think that is one of the real keys to

if people say, I can't talk to them

or I want to just, I need to change their mind.

If you're approaching a conversation that way, you are saying to yourself, they don't have anything of value to teach me.

Yes.

And when you both exchange that, just the basic thing, and I don't mean stats, I mean you as a person.

Yes.

How did you get there?

As soon as you get there, things change.

I always ask people, why are we not cyclopses?

Why do we have two eyes that do the exact same thing, not even an inch and a half half apart?

Because that's the only way to see depth and perspective.

So I tell people, look at the world with your view.

You need the other view to see the world in more than two dimensions.

You have to know what you don't know.

Constantly, I would come to the blaze, and you and I would sit down, whether we were traveling on a project, and I would learn so much about the world that I never knew, and vice versa.

Likewise.

And it was the only way that I saw things with depth.

It was no longer a two-dimensional edit in the screen world.

It was three-dimensional in the real world.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately.

We got to wrap up.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately: the scripture: there must be opposition in all things.

All of it.

Must be.

We don't want to argue, and you've got to agree to one side.

No, there must be opposition in all things.

For solutions, yes.

Yes.

And to see depth.

Yes.

So, Riaz, thank you so much.

Kelly Kelly wrote in about her experience with Relief Factory.

She says, I'm 63 years old.

I'm fairly active, but I was experiencing pain in my right hip and my shoulder every single day, which made my activities pretty difficult.

I'm happy to say just a couple of weeks into taking Relief Factor and

the pain is substantially better.

I'm so happy with the results.

This product works, and it's a true blessing.

Thank you, Kelly.

Thank you for just trying it.

I know I tried it a few years ago and I didn't think it was going to work and it's changed my life.

Three-week quick start.

All you have to do is $19.95.

Try it for three weeks.

You take it three times a day.

If you're not seeing any relief in the first three weeks, you're probably not going to see any difference.

But 70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month.

ReliefFactor.com.

Call 800, the number four relief.

800, the number four relief.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.

Just got to give you some breaking news here on,

you know, TikTok.

Yeah.

TikTok, obviously, this is minor.

We need to get back into the important news of Elon Musk buying Twitter here in just a second.

But let me just throw this out there just so you have the information.

You know, TikTok, the fastest-growing social media network in history that's owned by the Chinese government.

The new headline is how TikTok Live became a strip club filled with 15-year-olds.

Again, can we please talk about the real issue?

Yeah, we'll get to that.

I just want to say that.

Freedom of speech.

There's freedom of speech with Elon Musk.

He's rich.

Basically, there's this way that you can apparently tip

15-year-olds to a strip in front of you on TikTok.

You know, look, that's a minor thing.

I just want to make sure you understand the context of the story before we get back to the important thing that a rich person has bought Twitter, which before this, I don't know if you know this.

No.

It was charity.

Yeah, it was not a collection of rich people.

It was not a collection of rich.

Jack from Twitter.

Poor.

Very, very poor.

Even though he's fully endorsed the Elon Musk takeover, we should all

cry about the changes that are going on there.

You know what?

I wish you would stop talking because I really got to get back onto the Chinese government-funded and operated TikTok.

Yeah,

but don't think about that.

That's not important at all.

You know, just because we have a much larger social network that's growing faster than anyone in the history of the internet, we should just embrace it fully and ignore that growth while we talk about

a social network with one-fifth the size.

Okay.

Changing ownership.

Let's focus on that instead.

His white power anti-Asian rants.
