It is a fascinating podcast with Jonathan Heid that you really want to hear.

All right,

that's coming up tomorrow.

It's available now on The Blaze.

American Financing, home is where you live.

Right now, home values are up almost 20%, and that's a very big deal.

And things are starting to slow down because interest rates are going up.

So they're still at

5%, 4% and 3 quarters, something like that, which is still a pretty good rate, especially if you're looking at the value of a house versus what's going to happen with your dollar when you're losing, you know, they say 8.5% value of your dollar, you know, inflation, or I mean, the interest rate doesn't look so bad at, you know, losing

4.3 quarters percent.

Right now, you need to do all you can to save money, protect your money, and to get out of high interest credit cards.

American American Financing can help you.

Please call them 800-906-2440.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together, it's the corner survived.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

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

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

This is the Glenbach program.

Hello, America.

It's Friday.

I'm going to introduce you to somebody who

was just a regular person in California and then had enough.

Now they are an independent researcher, education advocate, and the host of the podcast, A Time to Stand.

You need to meet her.

Kelly Sky joins us in 60 seconds.

So, Stu, what causes inflation?

Too many dollars chasing too few goods.

Yeah, but how do you get those dollars?

You print the dollars and print and then print more dollars.

The federal government does that.

The treasury does that?

No, no, no.

That's,

I mean, well, they're certainly a big part of it.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, but they don't print it.

It's the Fed, the Federal Reserve.

And

they just deposit these things into

the banks all around the country.

But the amazing thing is, is the Fed

is owned, not by the U.S.

government, not by you.

The Fed is owned by the biggest banks.

You know, the ones that they're just printing money and giving that money to.

Yeah, it's crazy.

It's a creature from Jekyll Island.

This is

a very famous book that was written a few years ago that is a must-read, but it's pretty heady stuff.

Most people won't get the time to read it.

The Tuttle Twins have put together a great book on inflation, the Fed, how it works, what is the real cause, and what is the real cure for all of this.

It's the Tuttle Twins and The Creature from Jekyll Island.

I think this book is so important to get into the hands of every single family and every single listener.

I've asked the Tuttle Twins to make it for free.

So you can get the free copy right now at tuttletwinsbeck.com.

You just pay for shipping while supplies last.

All right.

Kelly Skye is joining us.

She is an education advocate and the host.

of a time to stand

she was

she was one of the people that really kind of helped reading

her

work and her research.

She really helped explain in a very simple way, just by using a triangle, how CRT

and SEL

and I think it's CSE are all connected.

They're all part of a larger problem.

And we keep chasing either this crazy sex curriculum or CRT.

They keep denying it and it keeps showing up.

That's because of SEL and that goes all the way to the CDC.

Kelly is with us now.

How many abbreviations can you possibly use in an intro?

Kelly, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Thanks for having me, Glenn.

You bet.

So now, you live still in California with your husband and two children.

So

that makes me question

your whole thinking process if you're still there.

But I got to thank you for everything that you are doing.

Can you take it where I was this week on the Wednesday night special and explain it in your own way on what families and parents are maybe not seeing or not understanding when it comes to this, I believe, war on our children?

Well, and what I did when I created that is I was hoping to illustrate to so many families in a presentation last year that all of these subjects which have been treated as independent are actually integrated within one another they're all interconnected in a way so where your school may only really be implementing social emotional learning there are elements of both critical race theory and critical pedagogy, and also comprehensive sexuality education into social-emotional learning programs.

And the same goes for each side of that triangle.

These subjects are integrated, they work together, and then ultimately they all fit into the whole school, whole community, whole child model, which is what I am so thankful you are talking about because every American needs to know about that.

Okay, so let me just ask a couple of, you know, uninformed questions.

I'm new to the SEL thing.

Social emotional learning, that's been around for a while, and was it ever a good thing?

In my own opinion, from everything I saw when that's actually what started our family's journey back in 2016, is discovering social emotional learning in our children's public school at the time.

I would say that from all I've seen, I don't see that it was beneficial or effective, but it did start initially quite small and then it grew from there.

And I think many families, when social emotional learning is first entered into a school system, it really does sound great because it's marketed so lovely,

calming kids, educating the whole child.

These are all wonderful sounding things.

But when you really get to the basic

implementation of

all that it includes, there's a lot of concern there because it does include social justice.

It includes elements of intersectionality.

And

most people are unaware of that when it's first introduced.

So when did the CDC, I mean the Center for Disease Control, when did the CDC

get involved and develop this whole school, whole community, whole child model?

Well, back in 2007,

the

ASCD

was really working on making an effort to change this entire conversation about education

with regards to combining health and education.

And

so community schools themselves have started to be implemented the last, you know, for a while now, but the push right now is to reach this full intended fruition that they have actually in a format of a virtual healthy or community school on their website.

And what exactly does that mean?

What I mean,

as I'm looking at this, as just a parent that has kids in school, I hear all these three-letter

acronyms.

I don't know what everything means.

And then I read about the whole school, whole community, whole child, and you're like, okay, well, that sounds pretty good.

What is the now intention

of

what this is?

What are they doing with it?

Well, what they're doing is they are transforming transforming education as we know it, but when they combine with health, it is also going to mean that the school is the central part of every community.

And then from that, they will collaborate with outside community organizations.

The other goal is to have a health clinic, dental, counseling, all on the school site.

And what really concerns me is that right in the midst of all of this and the marketing and the ideology of the organizations involved is social justice, is health equity, which James Lindsay has talked about a great deal.

Not just health equity, but diversity, equity, inclusion, racial justice.

So when these things are implemented into a school system, we have ultimately a very socialized educational model where parents and their involvement are really being pushed to the wayside and the government is stepping in to take care of the whole child, essentially.

Right.

And this is not,

I mean, it's not that the parents are being pushed aside.

The parents now, if you object, are being targeted as terrorists.

And on top of that, you know, I had a hard time at first with the idea of people that are supporting these things are groomers, but I can't, after looking the definition up, I can't define it any other way.

When you're having secret conversations, sometimes about

sex and

even how to perform sex

in a very graphic way, and you're telling the child, this is a secret between you and me.

Don't tell your parents, and you

intentionally lie to the parents that you tell them, I'm not having these conversations.

That is a groomer.

That's a groomer.

Right.

And a lot of people even don't realize that sex education has completely shifted into a model that is actually intended to be based upon the teaching of both pleasure and eroticism.

That is a huge shift away from teaching students what they previously were discussing with prevention and safety, those kinds of things is sex out of the past.

This new comprehensive sexuality education right embedded into their own documentation is teaching pleasure.

And these words are loaded terms where they're actually taking old definitions and adding to them.

And that's also important for the public to know because speaking from California, we're seeing some of the most intense indoctrination and a stripping away of parental rights and involvement.

And as you said earlier, they are looking at controlling everything on the child.

And I mean, every aspect of a child's life will run through the school, including their medical records.

Right.

If anybody is listening, listen and go to the CDC's website and they can look through the virtual WSCC, whole school, whole community, whole child model.

There is a virtual school they can actually click on and interact with each individual classroom, the health clinic, the counselor's office.

And as you said, medical records is one of the items that you can interact with in the virtual class in the virtual school.

And this is the CDC.gov.

That's correct.

You know, I feel like a simpleton because I've been saying that we've got to shut down the Department of Education, but

this is coming through the Department of Education, but

it seems to be spearheaded by the CDC.

Right.

And funded.

So

this is an all-government attack on our families and on our children.

How do we stop it?

I think we as a country have to become aware of exactly what's going on and continue to talk and have this conversation expand.

I am so thankful that you and your network are making a point to bring this to your viewers' attention because most people I talk to, even in California, they're they're unaware that sex education has changed.

They're unaware of community schools.

They're unaware that teachers unions have been for the last year actively marketing and meeting and strategizing for how to implement these.

And right now here in California, it's approximately a $3 billion initiative and schools are actively working to build health clinics on school campuses and they're working to really establish these community organizations that they're going to be directly tied with that are concerning to me.

And ultimately, then what we do is we really need to take into account whether we continue to have our kids in the public school system or seek alternatives.

And then who are we putting in office when we go to the vote?

And who are we really supporting?

And are they really behind what we believe is a family?

And I think that's a question a lot of Americans also need to be asking.

Okay, Kelly, I want to just take a one minute break and then I want to come back

because you said, you know, whether or not we keep our kids in school.

You were somebody who was really against homeschooling for a while and thought, no way I'm going to have my kids homeschool.

And now you're homeschooling your kids.

I want to talk to you a little bit more about what we can do about this and how urgent the need is.

to pay attention to all of this and do your own homework in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about Relief Factor.

The pain you are living with, that pain, despite all your efforts, you know, through the years, you haven't been able to get rid of it.

so kelly's website is um

a time to stand.me

A time to stand.me.

That is also the name of her podcast.

She's an education advocate.

She's a mom and

has really done incredible work.

And I can't thank her and others like her that are drilling down deep into these things.

As I went through all the research, Kelly,

that you and others and my team have done on all of this,

I am struck by

we keep thinking the war is in Washington.

We keep thinking that we have to, you know, wait for the next election.

I am overwhelmed with a feeling this is an active war on our family and our children.

And we have to save our children right now.

This isn't something like, yeah, I'm going to look into that.

It's right now, most important thing you can do.

I agree.

It's an absolute necessity.

And too often, people that parents and families that I've talked with over the years,

they have often said, oh, I don't think that's happening in our school.

Or, oh, that's just California.

You guys are crazy.

But the truth is, is that California is now not just in California.

We have equitable math, social justice, pedagogy, comprehensive sexuality education is

there's a huge effort to expand that nationally.

All of these subjects are being woven into one another and also into other subjects.

And we must do something.

We have to pay attention to this because it is our children's and our families and our nation's welfare and well-being that is at stake here.

So I've been saying that the Department of Education needs to be abolished.

The state needs to be

in charge, not the Fed.

And local communities need to know.

And I know that means that, hey, San Francisco might use this system.

Fine, let San Francisco be San Francisco as far as I'm concerned.

This is a danger to my children, and I am not going to be having my children force-fed this.

It is, it's an abomination.

It is absolutely evil.

But I've also been saying that the teachers' unions, that There comes a time when you have to look at our teachers and say,

you know, I believe you want to be a good teacher.

I I believe you might even be a good teacher.

But as long as you're paying dues to that union, you're part of the problem.

Is that fair or not?

That, I would say, is

a huge topic of discussion because, yes, you're essentially giving money to an entire organization that is working against you, despite the fact that they may come and protect you if you have a local conflict.

But what the teachers unions stand for and the way that they operate is completely antithetical to traditional American values, to the family, to the health and well-being of children.

I mean, as early as 2019, the California Teachers Association was actually taking to a vote their plan to lobby or to promote the idea that 12-year-olds would be able to obtain hormone blockers without the barrier of parental permission.

And while that's not law in the state yet, there's other laws in place that are similar here in California.

And if that is the goal and the plan that a 12-year-old would then in the future be able to leave campus and start these treatments at 12,

we have to pay attention and be aware.

In other states, California is the warning

to the rest of the nation that you must defend and protect your state and do what you can.

So, you know, this is

so easily verifiable,

but I need you to do your homework.

Kelly Skye,

you can find her at,

or I'm sorry, atimetostand.me, a time to stand.me you can also find her podcast a time to stand

but you must connect and start doing your homework and don't think your school is immune because it is not thanks Kelly the Glen Back program

Deborah wrote about her experience with rough greens.

She said, I adopted an older German shepherd named Ava, added rough greens to her diet about 10 days ago.

And believe me, it's already helping with her digestion.

Ava seems to love the taste.

She's always anxious to eat, licks the bowl clean now.

Her energy is improving, and she's adapting well to her new home.

Thank you, Rough Greens, from both me and Ava.

We're so glad that you joined us.

Sorry, I apologize for my voice,

but it's the allergy season here, and it is worse than I've ever seen in my life.

But, you know, don't worry about it.

Hey, I have a gallon of milk in my refrigerator that is last longer than CNN Plus.

It was canceled and we found out about it yesterday.

And then my wife came in last night and said, hey, you know, the CNN Plus has been canceled.

And

there was just a little joy that I expressed a little bit of that, a little bit on Twitter last night.

I did notice this, and reading your tweets, they seem to be specifically targeted to one CNN employee in particular for some reason.

You say, hey, Brian Stelter, perhaps you can join me on my successful global media streaming service to discuss your company's $300 million failure.

Oh, man, that's the start.

Awesome.

That's great.

P.S., I won't ambush you.

And my statements will be based in fact.

So sad for you.

Yeah.

Well, this comes from the interview that I did, and it's a very popular clip on YouTube of me walking off of the set for Brian because he said,

as usual, he really wanted to understand the right.

And he really wanted to understand why people were

backing Donald Trump and

just dismissing the media.

That's very dangerous.

It was very important to him.

And he brought you on, and then, of course,

changed the topic of the interview halfway through.

Can we play it?

Yeah.

Yeah.

One's arguing justice, one's arguing mercy, or they say they are, but they're not.

All they're doing is playing politics, and the American people are tired of it.

Who is talking about an actual solution on this?

Who's actually done something?

Who's actually consistent and cared when it was a Democrat in office and cared when it's a Republican in office?

You know, those people exist around the country and they're watching you two, the media and Donald Trump, play in this little game back and forth, and they're sick of it.

They don't want

from either side.

I want the critique because I invited you on.

I'm self-aware enough to know that we need to talk about this because I know it's a problem.

The mainstream media is having a very hard time.

The mainstream media is having a very hard time reaching Trump's base.

That's a fact.

We see that in all the polls.

Yeah, well, then here's the deal.

Brian, you all have my phone number.

I've reached out to all of you in the past and said, let's have a conversation not on the air.

You really want to understand?

You want to hear the other side of the world.

Why can't our viewers?

Let's have a conversation where people can tell our viewers right now.

Because it's all about ratings.

Because this is all about ratings.

This isn't about ratings.

This is about saving our country, bringing us together.

Stop dividing us.

I mean, you

so, so to be clear, you think that I'm dividing the country?

You think I'm dividing the country for ratings

by booking you?

Brian, stop drive.

Look at what you're doing.

When did this become about you?

This is about the media and the administration.

That's what you guys want to make it into.

If it was about me, I would do like a 10-minute comic card the way you're used to.

Oh.

If it was about me, I'd get out of blackboard the way you used to.

Oh,

look at that.

That's a good line.

Well, they maybe should.

I mean, the point is, maybe any of making it about me.

I don't see how I've made it about me.

I want to know.

It's not about.

You just said.

Never mind.

Look, Brian, if you want to have a conversation, the media really wants to know, great, we can have that conversation.

But every time someone, every time I've approached, everybody always says yes.

But as soon as it gets tough or uncomfortable, nobody's interested.

Nobody's interested in looking at themselves and saying, what did I do?

I know what I've done.

I know what I've done.

I've tried to make amends and I'm trying to.

And we've talked about that before.

I completely agree with you.

And we all do need to be more self-reflective.

I do have to ask you, there's this new headline on the Daily Beast saying that your company's in trouble, that you were trying to find a buyer.

Is this related to the point about people not talking to each other?

That if you want to create that media company, there's not interest?

What's going on with that?

wow wow

brian thanks a lot i think that's the most ridiculous um question i've ever heard i'm sitting here ready to talk to you about the detaining of children and parents and trying to break break families apart, something that has been happening with Janet Reno.

That's why it went to the Supreme Court in the first place.

With Janet Reno, it's been happening.

We want to stop it, and you want to play those games.

Have a nice day.

What game did I just play?

What game did I do?

That's interesting because the topic of that interview, and obviously the only reason he had you on, I mean, obviously, you could see the entire time all he wanted to do was get to this gotcha question about your media company failing.

It's interesting to me that he was very concerned about your media company, which at the end of the day, my understanding is it's still on the air.

I mean, I feel like I do a show for it every day.

Pat, you do a show for it every day.

Glenn feels a show for everybody.

Yeah.

The Blaze is just the largest right-of-center streaming service in the world.

Okay, okay.

That's one way.

That's

one way to look at it.

So that one's still around.

And CNN Plus lasted not even one month.

No.

Not even $300 million flushed down the toilet.

$300 million.

That's incredible.

Remember when you invested $300 million into the Blaze, though?

though?

Do you remember that?

No, yeah.

You flushed that down the tingle.

Didn't do that.

Didn't do that.

That's why there might have been a little glee in my tweets.

I sensed a little glee.

Did you?

Yeah.

You go on to say, did I mention my streaming service had 300,000 subs when streaming services didn't yet exist?

It was only the Major League Baseball of the Blaze.

That's right.

Those were the first couple.

That was over 10 years ago.

I could say that your pompous ass didn't make

didn't make 10 weeks, didn't bring me joy, but I will leave the lies to you and CNN.

And then you really got, see, you like the self-reflective nature

that you had in that interview.

You brought back again, and you said, I am sorry, Brian Silter, for that last tweet.

I just lashed out after hearing the news about the biggest media failure of all time

without thinking about how worried you must be about your upcoming unemployment situation.

Please know you are in my thoughts.

I wanted to say my thoughts in prayers, but I know he dismisses the prayers.

Right.

Well, there you go.

Okay, after re-now, this is you again.

After rereading these tweets, I see how childish they appear.

But after being subjected to your constant lies and the transparent hatchet job you call a career, the epic fail of CNN

makes us believe in the old saying that evil loses in the end.

And believe me, Brian Stelter, this is the end.

I mean, the breathtaking speed at which CNN Plus crashed was a spectacular, almost

Ziegfeld Follies end.

Yes, yes.

Okay.

Follow me on this.

Okay.

That would be assuming that Ziegfeld had ever spent $300 million on a show to only have it close in eight weeks, but of course he didn't.

Crap, Brian Selter, I apologize.

I used a hypothetical Ziegfeld Follies comparison in my last tweet.

I made the point that the failure of CNN Plus was so epic that it was akin to Ziegfeld having a $300 million production close in eight weeks.

Sorry, I meant four weeks.

One more thing, Brian Stelter, on CNN Plus's epic $300 million four-week flame out, the Hindenburg of Media Failures.

Please note, I only use Ziegfeld Follies because I thought it would be relatable to you and your elitist out-of-touch New York City upper west side snotty co-workers.

Brian Stelter, when you are part of the crew of the business version of the Titanic, and bodies are still in the freezing water.

Crew members begin to question themselves and become introspective.

What did you do wrong?

May I suggest a few things that I'm sure you may be thinking?

And then you go into, you launch into a...

A plethora of things that they've done wrong.

Well, the list is available on Twitter.

Yeah, of course, it starts with Donald Trump.

I mean, that's the reason why they failed.

You know,

they're blaming it on somebody, but not themselves.

They will learn nothing from this.

At no point did anyone rationally believe this would work.

Why a network that no one watches when it's free on your cable system?

Why would people spend money to go out there and justify what they, and we keep saying $300 million.

The plan was $1 billion

over four years on the streaming network.

Who could possibly believe that would work?

I mean,

it was dead before it began.

Discovery,

because of the way the mergers work, could not say that to CNN.

They could not say, the second we're taking over, we're going to shut this thing down.

They couldn't say it legally.

So

they did everything they could.

They went to the media and outwardly said, you know, this doesn't seem like such a great idea, but they couldn't specifically tell them to change the plans.

So they didn't to make sure they protected, you know, the merger.

The second they get in there, they're like, well,

obviously, this isn't going to work.

The people at CNN rushed it through to get it started before the merger

went through fully so they could get it on the air and made such a big deal about it, trying to lock Discovery into keeping it going.

You know, they said stuff like, this is the most important moment in CNN's history.

It's going to

change the face of the news media, hoping that Discovery would come in and say, How are we going to get out of this?

It sounds a little like the Democratic plan in Washington, doesn't it?

Yeah.

We're just going to start all these things and then hope that the Republicans just won't take them out.

Won't take them down.

And you know what?

If the Republicans do what they usually do, they won't take it down.

Discovery did not act like the Republicans.

They acted like a company that wanted to make money.

Yeah, that wants to survive.

You know what I mean?

I mean,

how hard did you laugh when you heard this yesterday, Pat?

Oh, I

loved it.

I laughed until I wept.

And I was weeping for joy.

Can I tell you something?

We honestly, with a very few exceptions, usually on election day, we don't gloat.

I don't like enjoying people's failures.

It's impossible not to.

Oh, my gosh, I enjoyed this so much.

I enjoyed this more than if they would have said, Glenn, not only did you get Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, you're going to be living in a house built with ice cream.

Okay.

You couldn't have made me happier than this failure.

We were thinking of the biggest business failures of all time, and it's kind of on par with pets.com.

Remember the spectacular crash?

No.

But it's way beyond that.

Pets.com lasted 262 days.

Wow.

This

lasted 30 days?

This is 31.

This really is the more akin to the titanic that ship

lasted one voyage it was unsinkable it lasted one voyage and rested at the bottom of the sea at least it made it halfway across yeah

you can't argue that with cnn plot this would like be this would like the to be like the titanic sinking in the dry dock

That's how bad this is.

All right, back in just a second.

Let me tell you a little bit about Patriot Mobile.

So you need to, you know, when we're looking at the epic,

colossal, earth-shattering, earth-shattering,

I mean,

truly Hindenburg of the business world.

Incredible.

The flame out of CNN Plus in four weeks, $300 million

investment just gone.

You can't compare it to, you know, pets.com or anything else because that was a fad

and it wasn't an established company.

This is a giant global brand that launched something with free advertising.

That's a big part of it.

Yeah.

And they were able to run constant promos for people to sign up to this thing.

Like Quibi didn't have that.

They had to pay for all their advertising.

Correct.

And what did they invest?

What was it?

It was over a billion, right?

It was $1.75 billion.

Wow.

But they lasted about seven times as long.

So you have to give Quibi a little bit of credit there.

Plus, they were a total startup.

I mean, they had to generate all their attention themselves.

I've never even heard of Quibi or Quibi.

Was it Quibby?

Yeah, it was a Quibby.

It was a big media story.

It did.

Like 10-minute movies, sort of.

Yeah,

like small quick bites shows.

Now, the theory behind the company was people are at the grocery store in there.

So

they got their last bit of funding, which was $750 million on March 4th, 2020.

So like, okay, there was supposed to be a thing where everyone's out watching it, and then the pandemic happens and everyone's home.

So you can understand the failure of it.

This is a that was a new idea, new product, new name.

You had to educate everything on it.

This is a known name, a product that everybody uses every day.

News.

Yep.

You know, it's not a new concept at all.

So another one

to compare it to.

What about New Coke?

Now, New Coke is known as the...

It lasted more than a month.

It's 17 years.

People actually bought New Coke and tried it.

So actually new classic

wound up lasting on the market for 17 years however if you take the period that you'd probably consider the real failure of new coke which is they took coke classic off the market changed it to new coke and coke classic did not exist that period was still 79 days so this was only not even 30 see i think they might have been more successful had they taken cnn off the shelf

and just had CNN plus they could still do that

they don't need the CNN plus part of it they don't need that but if they took CNN off the shelf right now they could solve this entire problem I

think there might be some that are considering it and they all work at discovery too

this is the Glenn back program Pat and Stu joining me today my voice is about to go out but I can't wait to needle Bill O'Reilly coming up in just a second.

We were off the air.

We were just talking about Jeffy, and I was wondering, guys, can we have an intervention with Jeffy?

Because we have Sweat Block now as a sponsor,

and he's the sweatiest guy I know.

He is the sweatiest guy.

By far,

they have to keep, whenever he comes on TV, they have to keep the temperature so low that he will not just start gushing flop sweat.

Oh, yeah.

No,

he's like a polar bear.

It is pretty crazy, but I mean,

you have these, the sweatblock has not only the normal,

deodorant and antiperspirant thing.

That's what I use, and it's the best I've ever used, but they also have the clinical protection for excessive sweat.

I've got to try this with Jeffrey.

An antiperspirant wipe.

Now, these are just like hand wipes.

We need them in the towel size, I believe.

But I don't know if it's.

Well, for him, do they have tarp size?

But it's sweat block.

You can get it at Amazon or go to sweatblock.com with the promo code PECK.

You're going to save 20%.

Honestly, best deodorant antiperspirant I've ever used.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together.

It's the corner surviving.

Stand up straight and hold the line.

It's a new day up time to rise.

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

This is the Glen Back program.

Well, Bill O'Reilly is with us to talk about the news of the week.

The mask mandates going away.

I don't know, maybe

his experience, you know,

on an airline trying to go some.

I don't know.

We'll bring that up with Bill O'Reilly in 60 seconds.

All right.

We've been talking about this coming for a long time, and everybody has been saying can't happen, can't happen.

And I've been saying that devaluing our money, and your money will become worth less and less until it is eventually worthless.

We are now losing officially 8.5%

of your dollar's value.

Okay, eight, that's eight, nine cents on every dollar you've lost.

So you keep it in the bank, you keep it someplace,

you're losing that money.

If you trade that dollar in for gold, gold will hold its value.

You're not going to lose money.

You might even gain money.

This is so important to understand.

It's not just an investment like stocks.

This is almost the closest you can get to like a guarantee of holding the value of a dollar.

And you might even make some in the end.

It's a hedge against inflation, a hedge against insanity.

Please call Goldline today and find out if it's right for you.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly.

How are you, sir?

I almost feel sorry for you, Bec.

I know.

Almost.

I know.

Not quite, but I do have a question.

Yes.

You had COVID a few months ago, right?

I think you've had it twice, and now you have the sniffles.

You ever get the best?

It's allergies in Texas.

This is the worst allergy place I've ever been in my life, is Dallas Texas.

I get a hazmut suit, number one.

Do you ever get the feeling God is punishing you?

Every Friday around this time, yeah.

Oh,

he may have allergies, but his wit is not dim.

Well, I'm just saying.

Also, I'd like to break some news on the Glenbreck radio program.

Okay.

You remember the Easter Bunny leading Joe Biden away from the reporter's questions on Monday.

You remember that?

Yes, yes.

You know who was inside the Easter Bunny costume?

Yeah, I don't think this is breaking news.

I think this came out Tuesday.

No, it was Stu.

Oh, Stu?

Yeah.

Really?

Yeah, I don't think you guys reported that.

It was Stu

that was running around that Easter Bunny.

Should have noticed because

that's actually, he's not in an Easter Bunny outfit.

Stu looks like that.

He wears a human outfit every day here on the program.

I'm a bit of a furry.

Yeah.

That's the way that I'm.

Your viewers would be interested to know that, you know, Stu recognized that the president might be in a little precarious position having to actually answer a question.

Bill, have you ever gently limited?

Have you ever seen that before, where the Easter Bunny had to rescue a president?

No, I haven't seen that, but I saw the wolfman wolfman drag Donald Trump out of a press conference.

Okay, all right.

Well, that one even makes sense in some strange way.

So, Bill, let's talk about the mask mandates going away.

Okay.

That's not the biggest story of the week.

Okay, well, I want to start there.

You'll see my.

But, yeah, I know.

You can store wherever you want.

You're

right.

You're a successful guy.

All right, mask mandate.

So,

this is my question.

And I am an inquisitive, simple man.

So, So Joe Biden comes out.

The president says, and he's asked, what do you think about the mask?

And people wear a man.

He goes, oh, it should be up to them.

Remember that?

It should be up to them.

I mean, you know, if they want to, they can't, they don't.

And then 24 hours later, the Justice Department, under his orders, appeals, spending millions and millions of taxpayer dollars, the federal judge's ruling, knocking out the mask mandates on public transportation.

So I'm saying, you know, a simple man, wait a minute, if Biden just said it should be up to the person, that is optional, why is he spending tens of millions of dollars appealing this ruling?

Do any of you guys have an answer for that?

No, but it leads me to another question on this, and that is:

is that what you were mad about when you were at the airport?

I knew you were just trying to get there, Beth.

I just knew because this thing is a ruse.

It's a facade.

Okay.

Get a pen and a pen.

Okay.

Here it is.

All right.

7 a.m.

flight, JFK, Turks Caicos.

Airtime, 3 hours, 15 minutes.

Supposed to arrive at around 10.20 in the islands.

Hang on just a second.

You had, I think you had the sympathy of the American people.

Turks Caicos.

Turks, Caesar.

Yes, you did.

All right, go ahead.

I'm just trying to go on a little vacation.

Yeah, yeah, a little break.

That's all I want.

Paid my money.

All right.

You got to get to the airport two hours ahead for international flights.

Right, so you were there at five.

7 a.m.

flight, but you got to be there at five.

Yeah.

Okay.

I arrived a little bit late, but not too much.

All right, I'm trying to be a good guy, good consumer.

I walk through the security, try to get in.

You know, they put me against the wall.

You know, all of that.

But I finally arrive at the gate and it says on time.

Jet blue on time.

Yes, yes.

Five hours later, no,

no.

And so I'm sitting there, about a hundred people, and

they know me.

And then people are coming up with kids and them.

What's going on?

Can you find out what's going on?

Because the JetBlue gate people wouldn't tell anybody.

They kept moving the flight back and back and back and back.

All right.

Finally, after three hours and 20 minutes, I get up, all right, and I walk over to inquire.

I said, can I speak to the supervisor?

Supervisor comes out.

I said, look, it's three hours and 20 minutes.

All right.

We've got to know, are you going to take off or not?

Meanwhile, Delta, flying the same route,

takes off on time.

Okay?

So JetBlue is well the weather.

I said, no, no, no, there's no weather.

It's nice here.

It's nice in the Turcos and you're in Turks Gegos.

And your competition took off at 11 o'clock.

All right?

It flew the route.

So anyway, the guy gets what, in my opinion, my humble opinion, he gives me an attitude, and then it degenerated from there.

I say I was wrong using bad language, and I used a little bad language, not a lot, but a little.

But whenever you do that, you lose.

Even if your anger is righteous, as mine was,

righteous anger.

Everybody else there, I thought there was going to be a riot at one point.

Now, I had immediately my staff research JetBlue for that day, April 3rd.

Okay?

76% of their flights were either canceled or delayed.

76%.

So I did a little bit more investigating.

You know why the plane didn't take off?

They didn't didn't have a pilot.

So word got back to them that there was, oh, Riley's a little teed off.

They call a pilot at home in New York.

He gets in the car.

It's his day off.

He drives in.

He shows up five hours and 15 minutes late.

And he tells the people they dragged me in on my day off.

That's what he says.

Okay?

Now, most of the,

it's now seven hours,

five-hour and fifteen-minute delay, and you're there two hours ahead of time.

Finally, the thing takes off.

I do even more research.

I find out that on their whole system,

they don't have enough pilots or flight crews to put the planes in the air, yet they still schedule the flights back.

And I think everybody in the country, and this isn't just happening at JetBlue, it's happening at Alaska Airways and others.

And the Boston Globe, the only one that did an expose because of the big hub there in Boston at Logan.

And Tuesday of this week, more than 50% of this week, even after all of this, more than 50% of JetBlue flights were either canceled or delayed.

Do you get the feeling that this is out of control?

Let's take it a step further.

Who's in charge of JetBlue?

The Department of Transportation.

Who is the Secretary of Transportation?

Might that be Pete Buddhajudge?

Is he still on maternity leave?

I don't know.

Okay?

I don't know.

There's not an airport near South Bend of any note.

The Department of Transportation today

could find JetBlue amazing amount of money.

But Buddha Judge doesn't do jack.

And this has been been going on for months.

Do you hear it?

I'm a little righteous angry now.

I'm getting a little.

No, I know, I know.

Okay, wait until you see I brought that poor guy out.

I'm gonna bring him out in a minute.

Okay, sure.

It's not about me.

This is about fraud and the inducement.

Millions and millions of Americans are paying their money to these airlines with the expectation they're going to get to where they want to go.

College kids, families on spring break, Easter break, stranded for sometimes days,

and nobody in the Biden administration is doing anything about it.

Nobody.

I have contacted the Easter bunny to tell the president,

you got to solve this thing.

You know, what happened?

When

you sucked all the fun out of my question, you really.

I know, I know it.

See, I had a legitimate, righteous anger as everybody else.

Thanks for wrecking it for me.

All right, hang on, back with Bill O'Reilly in just a second.

If you're somebody who lives in constant pain,

you know, I've tried this on Bill O'Reilly, that pain in my, just does not go away no matter how much I, no matter how much I rub on Bill O'Reilly, maybe I should just ingest them.

Actually, I take three times a day, I take Relief Factor, and it has really, truly changed my way of life.

I've gotten my life back.

I couldn't do anything four years ago.

Relief Factor, I never thought it would work.

It does.

Please try it.

There's a three-week quick start.

It's $19.95.

Go there, get the three-week quick start.

See if there's any changes in your pain.

If there isn't after three weeks, it probably isn't going to be any change.

But 70% of the people go on to order more.

ReliefFactor.com.

800, the number for relief.

800 for relief.

It's relief factor.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

Bill O'Reilly joins us from BillO'Reilly.com.

Don't forget his new book, Killing the Killers, is coming out, I don't know, sometime in the future.

May 3rd, May 3rd.

Let me ask you a question, Bec.

Can I ask you a question?

Yeah.

I know you wanted to have some fun at my expense today, and I'm sorry to ruin your fun.

But this is a serious problem for all Americans.

It's a direct problem that causes suffering for millions of people.

Have you heard this reported on

the PBC?

Okay.

No.

Why?

Why do you think it hasn't been reported?

Probably for not another problem for the administration.

No.

The airline companies take a massive amount of advertisements on the network news.

All right?

That's why.

The corrupt corporate corporate media will not report it because the ad revenue from the airlines is significant.

Second thing, when you saw the dopey tape on the Smear sites,

was there any context of what I just said?

Did you see any context there at all?

Well, I know you, so I know context.

Okay, but you didn't see any, did you?

No, yeah, but I know you're a hothead, so.

All right, but that's part of my charm.

I tell everybody, I tell my audience, particularly younger people, if you use bad language, as I did, then your righteousness declines.

Yeah, you lose.

That is a bad thing to do.

And

I am sorry I used that language, but I'm not sorry that I got angry because it was righteous anger.

And you want to know the other big stories here?

Yes.

Today,

okay, you ready?

Yeah.

The collapse of CNN Plus and the collapse of the Walt Disney Company stock price.

Well, these are.

You're serving up a breakfast I'm anxious to eat.

Let's start with CNN.

Okay, so here we have a product that is dubious, word of the day, dubious product.

Nobody watches it in relation to the population of 330 million Americans.

Maybe 600,000 in prime time watch CNN.

I think that's a little minuscule.

When you were there back, when you were on CNN, you had five times what they have now, an audience.

Do you realize that?

Yeah, and I was also deemed by them a failure, really.

You had five times as many viewers as they have now.

So, the geniuses at CNN, and this is Zuckerberg,

you know, let's do another part of CNN and charge people money to watch it.

Yeah.

Wait, wait, Jeff, Hold it.

They're not watching for free.

Why would they watch when you're charging them?

Okay.

So Jeff and his minions can make a we think we can get 2 million subscribers of CNN Plus.

You know how many they got?

150,000.

I don't believe that.

I don't even know.

I don't believe that.

I don't believe the number either.

Yeah.

That's a little below projections.

And

you just have to remember, this is a global network.

Yes.

And you can subscribe in Pakistan.

Yes.

All right.

To CNN Plus.

But the Pakistani go,

why?

Why would I do that?

Okay.

So

anyway, I know this world because I run a subscription news service, billorilly.com, and which is, thank God, and I renet literally.

I do thank God every day

because

we offer a product that people can't get anywhere else, and they deem it worthy.

And it's very, very successful.

But

CNN,

really, are you going to pay money to see Wolf Blitzer?

Are you really going to pay him?

No, if they were paying me, maybe, you know, then maybe I would.

Well, if you were on there, say CNN Plus hired O'Reilly Beck to do what we do on the radio every Friday.

Say that they said, look, O'Reilly and Beck, you come in to CNN Plus and you, for an hour, kick it around.

Yeah, people would, I think, pay to see that.

Well, you say.

Except we wouldn't do it.

Neither of us would have went to it.

That is a hypothetical.

I know, I know.

Stu, explain hypothetical to Beck, please.

I don't have that kind of thing.

It's hypothetical.

Okay?

But if you're going to say, hey, there's Anderson Cooper, give me $5.

no.

Right.

Right.

That would be a weird commercial.

So what do you think is going to happen to CNN?

I mean, they've just flushed.

All right, here's what's going to happen.

An excellent question, Beck.

Even in your allergic state, you still are able to bring it.

Sure, sure.

Chris Wallace, who they're paying multi-millions of dollars for, okay?

He doesn't have a job right now, technically.

They're going to put him at 9 o'clock, and I think they're going to hire Brian Williams, Williams, everyone.

So it'll be like Wallace and Williams at 9 for a hard news hour.

And that's going to rebrand CNN as a serious news organization.

So that's where they're going.

They know they can't win.

It's been years and years and years.

They've had these people on television.

Nobody watches them.

That's not going to change.

They're not going to magically wake up in the morning going, ah, you know,

I got to see that Don Lamond tonight.

I got to watch Don.

It's not going to happen.

All right.

So they have to plug Wallace in because they're paying him multi-millions of dollars.

And they got to get somebody with them because he can't carry a program by himself.

So that's what I think they're going to do at nine o'clock.

And then they're going to rebrand, like, oh, we're back.

We're news guys.

And that's what's going to happen.

Right.

All right.

So let's talk about Disney.

Oh,

love this story.

Disney stock, and I sold it when they started first started going woke.

I I had it and I said this is not going to work.

It's 35%

down year to year.

35% hit a yearly low yesterday.

State of Florida pulled out all their tax credits, which they've had since Walt Disney himself back negotiated the deal in Orlando, Florida with the state to

build Disney World.

Now, Disney's got to pay all the taxes on that sweetheart deal they had.

That's going to cost them tens of millions of dollars.

In addition, every traditional family in this country hates Disney.

Right?

Am I right?

No,

you're right.

Because they attacked the family.

They said, we want your five-year-old in school.

to discuss gender identity.

That's what Disney is promoting.

I mean, this is almost suicidal, is it not?

I think it is.

But

I want to switch.

We're going to have to take a quick break.

And I want to switch.

So the House yesterday, the Florida House, approved the bill that had passed the Senate to dissolve all of their special exemptions for the state.

They used to have the run of their own property, et cetera, et cetera.

However, this burden of money is now going to also shift to the taxpayers.

And I'm wondering how that's going to play out long term.

So, we'll get your point of view on that coming up in just a second.

The Glenn Back Program.

When you donate to a charity, I bet you're a lot like me.

Make sure it's a worthy cause and that it does what it says it's going to do.

May I encourage you to do your own homework on 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 and their families.

So when a first first responder or a military service member doesn't come home and young children are left behind, Tunnel to Towers pays off their mortgage to lift the financial burden and bring their family to stability.

For catastrophically injured veterans and first responders, Tunnel to Towers builds mortgage-free smart homes, enabling severely injured heroes to live a more independent life.

And now they have Operation Home Base, where Tunnel to Towers is gifting tiny homes to homeless veterans.

This is the kind of work that we should all be engaged in.

Join Tunnel to Towers on its mission to do good in their honor.

Donate $11 a month at tthe number2t.org.

That's t2t.org.

Bill O'Reilly is with us.

Bill, we were talking about Disney, and

I know how this deal was put together.

I know why it was put together.

I know why

Florida made the deal.

However, those days are past.

Now, he has just said that Disney no longer can have, you know,

their own

building inspectors and everything else.

However, it appears as though this burden now is going to go onto the taxpayer.

And they're saying the county, what county is it?

Osceola?

Two of them.

Yeah.

Two of them.

Orange and Osceola, I believe.

Yeah.

And they say that this could increase property taxes by 20%

beginning next year.

That's going to have to happen, and I'll explain it in a moment, but give me a minute at the end of this segment because I have something interesting to tell you.

Okay.

Okay, so all the counties have to do

where Disney World is,

is to pass local taxes.

And you can do that in a variety of different ways.

For example, you could have a local 2% tax on parking.

So people who park in any Disney facility, which is in the county, have to pay an extra 2% to the county.

You see what I mean?

So you can make that money up easy.

This isn't about the people are not going to get hammered.

This is the left-wing propaganda that always happens.

I know that, I mean, there's no way that Ron DeSantis missed this one.

That's just what we're hearing.

All they have to do is fly me down there, and I'll give them

how you can do your local taxes to make more money.

than you have now.

So nobody has to get taxed.

I will tell you, it is going to change the feel of Disney World.

You know, when you get off the highway exit for Disney World, it's manicured lawns, the black top is black.

You know, I mean, the stripes on the road, the medians are well maintained.

That's because Disney has done it.

The state and the county is, they're not going to do that.

They'll maintain it like they do the rest of the county.

I don't really care.

I know.

Because I'm not going to Disney World.

I took my kids there.

And I don't blame any American for taking their children there.

But right now, if you go to Disney World in Orlando, you better bring a lot of money.

Because a family of four spending three days there, you're looking at about five grand.

Okay?

So

they're gouging everyone.

And this is what gets me.

So they're so woke and they're so noble.

And they virtue signal this is Disney all day long.

Well, poor people can't afford to go into your park.

Do you not understand that?

Could you not maybe sell discounted tickets

you know, in some way to allow working families to come and enjoy it?

Do you have to gouge on every single thing you do?

Because that is the reality of Disney.

And we're not even talking about what they do in China.

Do you realize that Disney Shanghai pumps five billion dollars into that corporation a year?

You know what they pay their workers in Disney, Shanghai?

About 80 cents an hour.

Okay?

I mean, it's just,

every time I turn on, and I never, very rarely do the view, and that's Disney.

That's Disney.

And I'm going, this is corporation, but the folks have revolted Beck.

That CEO who made this crazy thing in Florida, who attacked the family unit there, he's gone.

Yeah, well, it's not his fault, though, honestly.

He wanted to stay out of all of this stuff.

I agree with you.

He handled it poorly internally, and he should be gone.

But their entire

employee roster, it seems

in Burbank, is just not.

In Burbank, that's what they let these loons in Hollywood, in L.A., run their corporation.

And they do.

So you get what you deserve.

The Disney brand, once the strongest brand in the United States of America, there was no stronger brand, is now destroyed probably forever.

But this shows you the power of the people.

And we're going to see it in November with the midterm election, all this woke garbage, all of this progressive nonsense.

This had to happen.

Biden had to happen for the backlash, the ferocity of the people finally

to emerge.

And it's going to be

CNN and Disney are just the first two.

So here's the thing about the woke left.

They hate Disney and its original values.

They hated Walt Disney

himself.

This is a traditional family.

Correct.

They hated it.

So they don't mind if they destroy it.

If they can use it and pervert it, they'd much rather do that.

But they're going to be happy either way.

I think they're going to be happy after November, Burt.

When you see what happens in November, I don't think there's going to be one woke progressive happy.

And that's coming up.

It's almost six months away.

And if you think Joe Biden and

his new national security advisor, the Easter Bunny, is going to solve inflation in six months, I mean, you know, it's not going to happen.

So can I ask you another question that's been bothering me all week is about the war in Ukraine.

Yes.

We are, We went from, oh, no, we can't, we got to stop Poland from allowing the Ukrainians to fly away with old MiGs.

That would be our involvement,

would get us into trouble to we just said yesterday, yeah, here's another billion dollars worth of howitzers and high-tech

armaments.

And Biden said, I'm going to go back and I'm going to ask the Congress for more.

Sure.

What is happening?

Are we going to war?

It's going to be Build Back Better Ukraine.

The United States government senses weakness on Putin.

All right.

And now they're piling on to try to take him out in the sense that if he loses in Ukraine, his power structure in Russia is much, much less.

Okay, that's number one.

Number two, that the MIG thing is bogus because Poland wanted to fly those planes to a U.S.

base and then have the planes go.

Biden didn't say, no, Poland, you can't give the Ukrainians MiGs.

He didn't want to have our airbase used.

And I understood that

because here's the bottom line on it.

The Ukrainian pilots cannot stand up to Russian pilots.

They would have been blown out of the sky in three days.

I saw it happen with my own eyes in the Falklands War when Britain killed every single Argentine pilot, everyone in that war.

Same thing would have happened if the Ukrainians had gone up in an air war against Russia.

It's the ground war that the Russians are losing, and they are.

And that's why NATO and the United States are now flooding the zone with weapons.

I don't see a flaw in the strategy.

And I'm not, you don't negotiate with a guy like Putin from weakness.

And right now, Putin is losing there.

But we wanted an arm's length distance from all of this because Biden said, you know, Putin will, if we get too cozy with Ukraine and we're doing things on the ground, Putin's just going to blame it on us and then we'll be, you know, sucked into that war.

They can't blame it on us no matter what we do.

No matter what we do, Putin can blame it on us.

Right now, you've got a coalition, NATO and the United States, feeding weaponry into Ukraine so they can defend themselves.

I don't see anything wrong with that.

Did you see that?

You know, if you say, well, we don't want to provoke Putin, Putin doesn't need provocation.

Putin can say, tomorrow, the United States did this to us, they threatened, well, we're going to do this.

All right.

So, I mean, you're dealing with a guy who is not a rational guy at this point, and you want to weaken him as much as possible.

Did you see the, I think it's foreign policy, came out with a video analysis of Putin grabbing onto the table and his puffy throat.

They say, at best, it looks like he's on steroids for his back, but he has seen a cancer specialist 35 times.

He may be going through chemo.

Do you believe that?

He looks terrible.

I mean, I haven't seen this guy topless in six months, and that's your indicator.

Yeah, yeah, no, okay.

All right.

He's got problems.

All right, Bill.

Now, listen, I want to tell you something important, Bec.

Next week, and maybe we can talk about next Friday, is the anniversary of Abu Ghraib story breaking in 2004.

Okay?

It was a horrible story, and it made the United States look terrible worldwide, and the left latched upon it to try to destroy Bush the Younger.

Everybody remembers that Bu Ghraib, right?

Yep.

Okay.

And the mantra of the left was: it doesn't work.

This doesn't work.

Coerced interrogation doesn't work.

So my book, Killing the Killers, A Secret War Against Terrorists, comes out May 3rd, and Beck has read it, I think, twice now.

And it refutes that.

And it says in the book and documented evidence,

national security evidence, that coerced interrogation saved

hundreds of thousands of lives.

And this is a very, very important book, perhaps my most important book, Killing the Killers, because it tells you things that no one knows.

And we got it from people who do know.

And it's an amazing read.

So I hope everybody will check it out.

And when you hear about Abu Ghraib next week, know you are not being told the truth.

Now the morality of torture, that's something every individual has to decide for themselves.

But if your your daughter is being raped and killed as Kayla Mueller was, the poor girl from Arizona, and a guy knows where she is, you tell me what you would do.

Bill O'Reilly, his new book, Killing the Killers, comes out the first part of May.

He joins us every Friday, and you can see him at billorilly.com.

That's billorilly.com.

Bill, God bless.

Talk to you again.

I hope you feel better.

Thank you.

Bye.

Bye.

The Glenback Program.

This is the Glen Beck Program.

Glad you're here.

It's Friday.

Pretty excited that now this week, Pat, was my eight-month anniversary of ordering a new car.

Yeah.

This is the Biden economy.

I think we've all come to hope, to love and embrace.

Yeah.

You know, but there was a time in the United States when you would, when the car dealership would be like harassing you to try to buy cars.

This is that American propaganda that the capitalist system once worked.

Yeah.

It never, it never, they were never harassing you to buy a car.

You always had to go in and you'd take what they have.

You'd place an order, and they would be like, Okay, look,

we will try our best to get it to you within the next year.

That's what you expect in America.

Now, look, there are worse problems to have, as we've seen.

It's a first world problem.

Yeah, it's not Ukraine.

You know, granted, I don't feel like I'm in Mariupol right now.

Yeah, but may I just,

we're the country that invented the first world.

So, I would like to continue to have first world problems.

So, now I have, for the first time since this order went in, a target production week of June 13th.

Wow.

So, and I thought June, it seems far away, but really it's already late April.

That's, you know, six or seven weeks from now, right?

Something like that.

Total only paid 10 months.

So only into your if it shows up, Pat.

Now that is what they're, that's the target production week,

which who knows if that's actually going to happen.

But I am curious as now, Glenn ordered a car four years ago.

And four years ago.

That car is still not here.

No.

Who's going to get their car from Providence?

By the end of this quarter.

Well, that's like right around the same time in June.

So it's a race.

Who gets their car first?

My guess, neither one of us.

By the end of June, neither one of these cars is going to be here.

Yeah.

I mean, look, this is supposed to be America.

Like, we have

been trained to accept things.

In all, I mean, it's not just cars.

In all things, we are being trained.

You do with less.

And I don't have a problem with that.

I mean, me personally,

I think we do have a problem with stuff.

I know I do.

I have a problem with stuff.

No one has ever dealt with, you know, with having less than Glenn Beck.

I mean, I think we can say the self-sacrifice over all these years is incredible.

It's been a remarkable bit of restraint.

But with that being said, I want it to be the individual's choice.

Exactly.

Like, you're supposed to be able to buy things, and they're supposed to be available when you want to buy them.

Now, look,

we had a freeze here last year in Texas where our house was flooded.

The entire bottom floor was flooded.

We had all these repairs.

First world problems.

Most people around the world don't have houses.

Yes.

You should die.

Yes.

People always,

they talk so badly about the word elitist.

I strive to be one.

i someday would like to be i don't want to live in a hut i don't i i like the way america is working or at least has worked in the past even if it's an eight-bedroom hut there i don't want to live in it exactly yeah we had a faucet that took a year a year to arrive a faucet now why do we now you might say wait a minute what kind of faucet are you getting right it's it was not inexpensive it was like a hundred dollar faucet and have the same issue i just got mine this week i mean like that's

a ago.

And it's a regular faucet.

Wow.

And you might say, wait a minute, your house flooded.

Why would you need a new faucet?

Shockingly, my wife added some projects to the list

from just the flooding.

Surprisingly, the scope of the job seemed to increase as time.

Is that a person shoe room?

Yeah.

No, that's a good question, probably.

But it is amazing, though, that we are just getting used to this.

The pitch from the media is, yeah, look, Europe gets this all the time.

They've been dealing with this for a while.

Just be more like Europe.

Learn to love it.

Learn to love that you order something and you don't get it for six months.

Enjoy it.

Get involved in that process because that's what's around the corner for you.

Well, it doesn't have to be.

You got to listen to my podcast with Jonathan Haidt.

It came out last night from Blaze TV.

Tomorrow it'll be available everywhere.

But we talk about this and we talk about how this particular generation right now

is

not capable of living under true capitalism.

It's It's a fascinating interview.

Jonathan Height on this weekend's podcast.

This is the Glenn Back program.

Oh, golly.

Thanks, Hillary.

Thank you, Hillary.

We're in critical elections.

You know, they always say this is the most important election of our life.

I think for the state level, for sure, because the states are going to be the ones that pull us through this.

Won't be the federal government.

And, you know, if we have wishy-washy, mealy-mouth Republicans, it's going to suck.

And if we have, you know,

blue, I mean, you know, die-hard blue state people running our states, it's going to suck.

You know,

I don't like the construction of, oh, every election is the most important election ever because it just doesn't feel, I don't know, authentic.

But in one way, it really is, which is every single four years or six years or two years, whichever the cycle is, the government has more power than it did previously.

So each election has more impact on your life than the one that happened before.

That's a bad trend that we should really try to reverse.

So

there is a primary going on now in Idaho for who's going to be the next governor.

And I wanted to have two of the candidates on today.

We're going to start with a new guy first.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together, it's the corresponding

time to rise.

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

This is the Glen Beck Program.

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenbeck Program.

Pardon my voice today.

I feel like

I'm speaking through broken glass right now.

The allergy season here in Texas has just exploded.

And I'm honestly, I'm here because I know it sucks to hear me like this.

But I'm here today because I really wanted to talk to the person that I have holding on the phone now.

We need state government to be taken by people with vision, people with principles and values, and somebody that we can trust.

I want you to know I am not going to endorse anybody,

but I will fight for people to know the truth tooth and nail.

So there is a governor that I just met recently.

He's up in Idaho.

We'll talk about that because he gotta go.

There's a couple of candidates that if you're in Idaho, you really need to pay attention to.

One of them is known, one of them is not really well known.

We talk to him in 60 seconds.

So, you know, the biggest thing about inflation is it's not the price of goods and services rising.

It is the value of your dollar going down.

And that's why you want to buy assets, assets like food.

Even buy it today, and it'll be worth more

than what you can buy it for later.

The same is gold.

Gold and silver, precious metals, are so important.

They are the hedge against inflation.

And it has been that way for how many years?

How many

cycles of human life?

It goes back forever.

If you want to find something that's foundational to not only the country, but the way we interact together as human beings going back centuries, gold is the way to do it.

And there's a lot of paper gold products out there.

Don't do it.

Yeah, don't do it.

You know, you want to have something that's physical that you can put in your hand and cannot be controlled by the same forces you're trying to push back against.

That's gold, and it's gold line.

Of course, you can call gold line today and find out about their specials on graded five dollar gold indian head coins you may be eligible for free platinum but you'll have to call to find out how to qualify just got to call them at 866 gold line right yeah 866 goldline 866 goldline or goldline.com

so

do you know who uh brad little is patient isn't he the governor of idaho that you just went up to see right and you were going to talk to him about esg yeah so i went up and talked to him this is the kind of politician that we just don't need.

In my opinion, Idaho, you do what you do.

But I went up and spoke to him, and he said, you know, last night I didn't even know what ESG is.

And I said, oh.

That's a good start.

Good start.

And so I expected him to, you know, be eager to listen and learn.

He said, but I called a...

I called an old banking buddy of mine, and he brought me up to speed.

So I got it.

And I'm thinking, oh,

okay.

Well, it took me two years to research it, but

he had it just in one phone call.

That's great.

To a banking buddy.

I'll bet he understood how bad it is, too, from that banking buddy.

Sure.

So

I've been looking, and I'm very concerned about all of the races, especially the races closest to you.

That's why we have had people on for school boards.

You know, just to make the point, you have to pay attention.

These races at home matter maybe more than the federal government.

Our states have got to stand.

So

after meeting the Republican governor who is running now

there in Idaho, I thought, maybe we should talk to some other people.

So Ed Humphreys is one of those guys.

Now, he is not real well known in Idaho.

He is the youngest gubernatorial candidate in in the country.

I think

he's 30.

And their primary is May 17th.

One thing I found out that

made me say, I think I want to talk about this, talk to this guy.

He did his thesis on modern monetary theory.

So here's a guy who maybe the governor could have called and probably would have given him a better idea.

Ed Humphreys, welcome to the program.

Glenn, thank you for having me on.

And probably part of the reason the governor wouldn't call me to get my input is because I'm not a corporate lobbyist.

You know, these career politicians, they rely so heavily on these special interest groups to provide them with data that they use to make decisions with.

And the governor here in Idaho, my critique of him would be he believes all the data.

that these lobbyists, that these banking special interest groups provide him.

He thinks it's as true as day.

And I think we need people in the Capitol asking a lot more questions.

But I'll take issue with one thing you said, Glenn.

You said, not well known.

I will remind you, I came into contact with you because of everyday Idahoans you know that are connected with you.

I never got connected with you through a media group or anything.

Oh, that's true.

No, you,

at least in my county,

there were a lot of people that knew you.

And I also was, I think I was with Chuck Norris.

And a friend came up and from Idaho and said, hey, have you heard about this guy?

And I said, yeah, somebody else was talking to me.

So

you are making waves,

but you're not a politician.

No, and the reason why this race is so interesting, I think you mentioned it, called it perfectly.

I mean, I'm the youngest gubernatorial candidate in America today.

And think of that, to have a constitutional conservative be the youngest candidate in America making waves, it's a really powerful dichotomy when you consider the fact that we have Joe Biden, who can't make it up a flight of stairs for crying out loud, let alone even be on a live program without somebody there to protect him from tripping over his own feet.

And now we have ruby red states, well, once I'll say Ruby Red states like Idaho, putting up a new generation to bring this fight forward, and we have to do that, Glenn.

I mean, this ESG and this global socialist push coming out of groups like the World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab.

I mean, I'm waiting for that guy.

He's like a super villain from every Indiana Jones flick I've ever seen.

I'm waiting for him to don his armband any second now.

Yeah, yeah.

So,

so tell me why you would be qualified for

to be the governor of a state like Idaho, which is very diverse.

You've got people moving into the capital that are from California, very, very liberal.

And then you have people who are farmers and they don't, you know, you don't have the population when you have, you know, big farms.

And those people feel.

left out about a lot of stuff.

How are you going to bridge that and what makes you different?

Well, I'm blue collar guy at heart.

I used to drill for oil as a roughneck on drilling rigs.

I'm one of the few people you'll meet who never finished the eighth grade, later in life, went on to get a master's in finance.

So I'm a financial advisor by trade, but I would say in politics, if you want the truth, you have to follow the money.

And that's what I've done.

And when you follow the money, you figure out very quickly what's going on.

And when we change the way that we fund government, we will change the government itself.

I think it's very powerful to have a finance guy at the top of the ticket, particularly in a state like Idaho, where the governor has immense authority over the budget and the ways in which all the agencies and state government are run.

We're going to make changes to the way that we fund government.

The biggest thing of all, and this is what's happening in states across this country, and Ron DeSantis understands it better than anybody.

We are funding our own destruction.

We pay our tax dollars and then our elected officials, Republican and Democrat-alike Republicans, are the worst with this though.

This is how we lost Colorado.

They then turn that money over, our tax dollars, to private organizations that promote anti-American causes.

And Idaho is doing that.

We are rapidly losing our heritage, our identity.

This state I consider to be one of the last foxholes for the American dream

today in this country.

We need bold fighters who are going to stand up, who are going to follow the money, get to the bottom of things, reveal it for what it is, and make big changes.

And my plan does just that.

So, how are you going to bridge

excuse me?

How are you going to bridge the gap between

people who are fed up with the government, don't really trust the government,

and

want to throw all the bums out.

How are you going to bridge the gap between that and the normal people that say,

I'm sick of this as well, but I want to make sure that we're not throwing the baby out with the bathwater?

There are a lot of good Republicans.

I'm sure there's some good Democrats.

I only leave them out because I don't know them.

But I know there's some good Republicans there that want to fight the system, but not destroy the system.

How do you bridge that gap so you've got a coalition of people that can work together?

We have to have a bold vision to rally around, and that's what's been missing for some time.

My vision is one that inspires people because what we're doing is we're taking power from these subject matter experts, these corporate experts, these government experts that want to make decisions for us in our lives, And we're giving it to people so that they can reach for the heights of their own potential.

And school choice is a powerful way where you can disrupt that institution, education.

But people can rally around these ideas because they're ready for something new.

And it doesn't mean we throw the baby out with the bathwater.

There's a lot of folks that would like to see something revolutionary in America today, something innovative and unique.

And that is what I've set out to do.

But more important than anything else, if you want to bring positive change, you have to create a movement.

You have to create a mandate.

And when you talk about bridging the gap, nothing does that better than connecting with people.

So I travel this state, the whole state, once every three to four weeks.

And I connecting with everyday Idahoans and building those relationships and hearing what they're dealing with and what keeps them up at night.

Those kind of relationships I find more valuable than with, well, you know, corporate America through their lobbies and the like.

So, yeah, I'm not going to get along with everyone, Glenn, because, well,

I'm a disruptor.

So, tell me what the vision is.

What are the people in Idaho mostly concerned about?

And what is your vision?

The biggest thing that's happening in this state right now, we have a system of government,

an old

idea that has existed in the Republican Party for too long, where the government exists to benefit the politically connected.

That's what we got to turn around.

I'll give you a perfect example of this.

Think of this.

This is Idaho.

Our Republican governor

just cut a $50 million

tax deal to give tax breaks to Facebook.

so that they would build a facility here and you know we're all supposed to clap because it's going to create 100 new new jobs and i imagine they'll they'll find you know uh they'll bring here to idaho a hundred you know berkeley uh educated leftists which uh will just make our problems even worse that kind of thinking is what has to be expunged and and ida idahoans particularly when we're dealing with an ag state uh we deal with drought and now we have this server farm facebook's bringing in 170 million gallons of water a year people see that and it bothers them But more than that, it's a bigger story about what these multinational corporations, how they're exercising their complete domination over our lives, over the government.

And that is exactly the fight that I want to bring to the forefront.

We need to have an environment that is business friendly to small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs.

But when it comes to these multinational corporations that cut deals with, you know, Chinese Communist Party-owned companies in other parts of the world to get their capital and bring those insane policies into America, we got to have governors all across this country that call it for what it is and have a plan to tackle those problems.

And so, when it comes to these corporations, in Idaho, the governor is empowered to investigate any corporation in the state of Idaho.

So, since Facebook decided to move a facility here, Glenn, I tell you, we're going to have some fun.

We're going to get to the truth.

If I were elected governor, I would investigate Facebook for their shadow banning,

for defrauding advertisers about impressions and reach and the like.

Let's let the truth have its day.

Last question.

How's your soul?

How's my soul?

Probably the most important question.

One of the books that you wrote, Glenn, that I've read and I really enjoyed, it was Being George Washington.

And one of the things that I've learned is, you know, strength rejoices in the challenge.

And this is a time where nothing seems real in the world anymore.

Everything's manufactured.

It's all engineered.

And it's really on my heart to disrupt.

that.

You know, my family, they lived under, they fled from communism in Eastern Europe and came to this country so they could make decisions for themselves.

And I'm watching as America starts to adopt those same ideas that destroyed countless countries across the world.

I guess what's on my heart, what I would describe as I want to win that fight.

That's why I'm here today.

That's why I'm taking on the political machine.

And because I come armed with the truth, they try to silence me.

Even here in this state,

the sitting governor and the sitting lieutenant governor, who are my opponents in this race, they have, for the first time since debates have ever been hosted in the state, for the first time, they have refused to debate me.

Think of that.

There's not going to be debates in Idaho this year because they don't want to have these tough conversations.

That is a dangerous precedent.

Ed Humphreys, you can find his website, ed4idaho.com.

If he sounds like your guy, you've got to find somebody that you think is going to do the right thing for your family and your state.

This is the firewall.

If you consider Ed, find out more about him, Ed4idaho.com.

Ed, thank you very much.

By the way, we're going to talk to the current lieutenant governor who's also running.

He just spoke about.

We'll talk to her in just a few minutes.

Tuttle Twins books.

There is a new book out called The Creature from Jekyll Island.

And this is from the Tuttle Twins.

This is actually based on the book by G.

Edward Griffin.

Yeah, you've done a bunch of specials over the years on that.

We've had him on.

Yeah, that's right.

We've had him on.

Yeah.

It's about the Fed and the foundation and formation of the Fed.

And the Tuttle Twin books are great overall.

My daughter, you know, I don't know, having your daughter, who's my daughter's nine, ask me to read her a book about the Federal Reserve is not something you expect to experience in your life.

But she does.

She asks me to read her these books.

There's one about the very famous essay, iPencil.

I love it.

There's one about,

you know, which is, again, basically praising how capitalism and markets work.

And these are things that, you know, it would be difficult for you to talk to your kids about without impossible.

Yeah, impossible.

I think without these books.

The Tuttle Twins and The Creature from Jekyll Island explain inflation, explains how the Fed works, explains how the Fed should not be in our lives, quite honestly.

And you can get it for free.

I I think this is so crucial for families right now so you can prepare and batten down the hatches for the inflation that is coming.

Tuttle Twins and the creature from Jekyll Island, it is free.

Just pay for shipping while supplies last at tuttletwinsbeck.com.

That's tuttletwinsbeck.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

So we are in

Idaho hour here on the Glenn Beck program.

Well, it's Idaho segment.

Yeah, well, yeah, and we're going to be talking to

her as well coming up in the lieutenant governor here in just a couple of minutes.

And this is one of the things that I think people focus on a lot when we get to primary season, which is it's not just about the state remaining red or having a red seat.

Like we have one of our senators here in Texas is one of the worst has

been horrible.

He has one of the worst voting records of any conservative force.

And he started out so great.

He started out well.

But, you know, that was 22 years ago.

Yeah.

Things have changed.

That's what happens when you're in D.C.

all those years.

That's why we need term limits.

Yes, first of all, term limits.

But when you have an opportunity to select which Republican is going to be in office in a red state, you should select wisely.

It's a good one.

It's really

a good one.

So

the current lieutenant governor, she's running for governor now.

She's the one, if I might remind you, that when the governor left the state, she said, no more of this mask band-aid stuff.

Remember, she reversed.

Yeah.

She had

at least, there was quite a controversy about this move, which she basically said, you know, because he was out of the state, she was, you know, temporarily running the state.

Typically, you don't have major policy changes in those periods, but she thought it was really important.

And certainly the people of Idaho agree, right?

I mean, that was

a strange

way to go through the pandemic in a state like Idaho.

I mean, it's

not consistent with what the people want.

Yeah, I think

the governor who is running for re-election,

I think he is,

I think he's, I don't think he's going to win the primary.

And he's not a favorite of yours.

No.

Because he doesn't seem to be a woman.

But I don't live in Idaho, so I don't have a say.

People in Idaho idaho do we just want to make you aware of some of the options and point you in your state to pay attention

This is the Glenn Beck program.

I wanted to bring on the lieutenant governor of Idaho.

She is the

gubernatorial candidate.

You might remember she is the one that when the governor left the state, she was like, Yeah, we're not doing any of that stuff for COVID, which which I cheered personally.

Janice McGeean is her name, and you can follow her at janiceforidaho.com.

These are really important

in every state.

You must pay attention.

My opinion, Brad Little, the governor of Idaho, who's running again, is absolutely a waste of a chair.

Just

not a Republican,

and I thought he was very out of touch when I met him, but that's just me, and I'm not a resident of Idaho.

The lieutenant governor is here to talk a little bit about her campaign.

Janice,

welcome.

Good morning, Glenn.

Thank you so much for inviting me to join your show this morning.

Sure.

I truly appreciate all that you do for conservative movement in America.

Thank you very much.

I would like to start

the interview with your opinion on if you think that Brian Stelter from CNN actually grew in a potato farm there in Idaho.

But I don't want to start off with nastiness, so we'll move on.

Janice,

tell us your vision and why you should be the candidate for

governor.

Well, Glenn,

I'm concerned in the last two years, the decisions that our current governor, Mr.

Little, has made and and you mentioned some of his actions and really his lack of action to protect the freedoms and liberties of the individual a lack of standing firm for the sovereignty of our state and giving away our traditional conservative values all in the name of of compromise and and just bringing more money into our state.

As I've traveled across Idaho for the past year, I have listened to the people of Idaho.

And they have, the people of Idaho have a strong voice, very conservative voice in Idaho.

And we have Mr.

Little that is not listening to the people.

He has failed the people.

He's not stood behind President Trump in the 2020 election.

That is why I have received the endorsement of Donald Trump in this campaign, because I stand for election integrity and fighting for forensic audits in Idaho and in America.

What we saw in 2020, we've learned a lot and we need to make sure that some of those election irregularities never happen again.

And our governor, Mr.

Little, with his small ideas of giving, we have this $2 billion surplus in our state and just a small amount of tax return to the citizens of Idaho rather than taking that amount of excess revenues which means we're overtaxed giving that money back to the hardworking citizens of Idaho in the form of lowered sales tax removing sales tax on food reducing our our gas tax and our property tax

Mr.

Little used that money instead to grow government programs and government funding over 20%

increase in our state budget programs this year.

So we're talking to the lieutenant governor of Idaho.

Pardon me for my voice,

Lieutenant Governor, but

when you look at your state, you have a lot of people who are farmers, ranchers.

You have a lifestyle in Idaho, and it's being challenged by newcomers and businesses.

How do you balance these two so you don't lose the essence of Idaho?

I think the way that we balance this is we have a we create a

fair

playing field for all.

We have a lot of people that are moving into Idaho from other states, these states that have gone radical and moving to Idaho because they've lost the states of they've you know they've lost their freedoms in these other states and they're coming to Idaho.

And some of the people that are most engaged in protecting our traditional conservative way of life here in Idaho are those individuals that are coming here.

But at the same time, Glenn, we have businesses that are being enticed.

And

Mr.

Little and the leadership giving away special tax incentives to these corporations like Facebook.

They gave a special tax incentive to Facebook to relocate outside of a

community in Cuna, Idaho, munching up

our agricultural farmland, making more demands on the water and the resources in our state.

So

that's what I'm talking about is we need to have a level playing ground where we do not have this corruption and this cronyism that if you come in and wave a big d check in front of the politician's nose, they're going to give you a special incentive to come to this state.

It needs to be a level playing ground where all of our businesses, if we're going to, we need to reduce the tax burden and the regulation on our businesses, all of them.

90%

or more of all the jobs created in Idaho are created by small business community.

And we need to do more to support the small business community and not just

give away all of our resources and our

tax revenues to these special interests.

I'm sure you were aware, I was up talking to your governor about ESG.

Yes.

And all of the Republicans were on board.

And then the big banks came in and started

doing, I think there were, I can't remember exactly, I don't want to give the wrong number, but there were a lot of bank lobbyists, big bank lobbyists.

And that was shot down.

And if your state, I mean, all kinds of states now are enacting, I think Arizona just did another one, where if you are using ESG and you're going after gun sellers or anything else, you're breaking the law.

We couldn't get any movement

in Idaho on this.

The special interest seems locked up.

How can we trust?

that you are going to be somebody that would break that up

Well, because of the example that I've given in the past, of the past two years, my willingness to stand up against the establishment, speak out against the governor.

And I've been criticized for that because people don't expect that from the lieutenant governor.

you know, working against

the current governor.

But as I've explained to the people of Idaho,

and here in Idaho, the governor and the lieutenant governor are separately elected constitutional offices.

We do not run as a team like some states do.

And so when I swore my oath to the

law and to the Constitution of Idaho,

that's where I follow.

And I do not

subscribe my allegiance to the governor.

And when he speaks, when he steps out of line and violates our Constitution and our laws and the rights of the individual, that's what people in Idaho can count on me that I will am always willing to stand in their defense and stand in the gap.

That's the kind of leadership that we need in Idaho.

That's the kind of leadership we need to see more of throughout America.

So I have to have to ask you one question, and this is a tough question, but it is also personally driven to some degree.

I'm from the Seattle area.

I grew up in the Pacific Northwest.

I've always wanted to go home and live in the Pacific Northwest.

My wife is like, you're not moving me there to that rain.

And the entire west coast has just fallen off the map.

It's crazy.

And so Idaho is the Pacific Northwest, and it's great, but it has always had a reputation of small pockets of white nationalists and crazies.

Every state has them.

I shouldn't say that.

Many states have them.

And

you gave a recorded speech

at a first political action conference.

It's founded by Nick Fuentes.

You said you didn't know who that was, etc.

I find that hard to believe because I I mean, I give speeches all the time and I never go.

My staff does this.

How did you overlook that?

And

I'm only asking because I have property in Idaho and I'm counting on Idaho to come through.

And I don't want any white supremacist group to have any oxygen at all from the state leadership.

And I agree.

And

I believe that same thing.

And I personally have no acquaintance or friends with those people.

I believe that we are all created in God's image.

We are all equal

with the rights of life, liberty, and

these are inalienable rights of us as citizens.

So I completely am in agreement with you on that.

What happened with that conference?

I was asked, and it's an honest, true statement when I made, when I said,

I do not know who that person is.

I did not know anything about him at the time.

But the the person who invited me to submit a video it was Michelle Malkin and she invited me to submit this pre-recorded video to the conference that they had the conference is made up a lot of conservatives from all over the country and they are

interested in America first policies, the policies of Donald Trump, securing our border,

believing in the fact that America is based on Judeo-Christian values.

So that's what happened, and I have

made that statement over and over again.

That's who I am.

That's what I believe.

Passed and answered.

Thank you very much.

I wish you the best.

How can people get involved?

I guess they just go to your website, which is janiceforidaho.com.

Yes.

Yep.

And

there's lots of ways to still get involved.

We're targeting neighborhoods.

We've recognized all of the Trump supporters throughout Idaho.

We've knocking on doors, making calls, thousands and thousands of those

outreach being made and

getting still getting around the state, lots of events, just going and talking about.

The primary is May 17th.

Does Brad Little actually have a chance of winning this?

Well, it's not easy to go against an

extract.

But I'm the front runner in the race to be successful against him.

And if we unite as conservatives, there is a path to victory.

We need to get people to the polls because there is an effort by Democrats and establishment, Republicans,

Democrats to cross over.

So we get people to the polls, that's how we win.

Well, I will tell you this, that you're exactly right.

When push comes to shove,

we have to unite and win because I don't think any state will survive if you don't have constitutionalists that are not connected to the graft and everything else.

We don't survive.

And I wish you all the best.

Thank you so much, Lieutenant Governor.

Thank you, Glenn.

You bet.

God bless.

Our sponsor this half hour is Life Lock.

Life Lock is taking on a pretty high importance right now as you look at the world and where it stands.

You know, the cyber attacks are going crazy.

People's identity is being stolen all the time.

And if you don't lock this stuff down, you are not taking care of your financial future.

You have to do this.

And that is why Life Lock exists and make it easy.

I would say, like, you know, if you had to do this stuff yourself, you'd never get it done.

You just allow

some cyber criminal would be taking your identity every five minutes.

I tell you, I mean, honestly, on most of this stuff, if I'm driving in my car, I think every day, yeah, I should do that.

Yeah.

And then I don't.

Oh, I have a to-do list that is 10 pages long of things that I should have done already.

And at least many of the things on that to-do list on my to-do list, some of them are like 10 years old.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

The people involved in them are dead.

They've long passed away, and I'm still, they're still on the list.

Got to call them soon.

But with Lifelock, you can get it done all in one place, and it can take care of this problem for you.

All right.

No one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but Life Lock is there and I think they're the best in the business.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

It's Stu and Pat for Glenn here for the last couple of minutes as Glenn, his war hero hero efforts today to get through the sore throat were pretty impressive.

I'm sure he gave it to both of us, and we're not going to like him tomorrow, but today, pretty impressive episode.

He's claiming allergies.

I don't believe it.

You don't believe it?

I don't believe it.

I mean, the guys, I've never met a person with more health problems than Glenn Beck.

It's got to be something, something contagious, something that's going to kill us.

Yeah.

Probably.

Right around the corner.

Yeah.

We, of course, spent a good chunk of the day today mourning the loss of CNN Plus.

It was difficult.

It was tough to get through the show, really.

It really was.

You know, it's the first thing I thought thought of when I woke up at 2.30 this morning, and I wept.

I wept openly.

A lot of people put the flag of Ukraine in their Twitter bios.

I'm going to put CNN Plus in mine in memory.

Wow.

Wow, that's powerful.

And appropriate.

We did create a Stew Plus logo.

I saw that.

You showed it

on my show this week.

Oh, nice.

It was really good.

You could go to StudosMerch.com, get a mug with the Stu Plus logo.

We're launching StudozAmericaPlus.com.

Already, it's lasted longer than CNN Plus does.

It's pretty good.

I will tell you, we will make sure at the very least it lasts one day longer than CNN Plus does.

You have to.

Just for that, because I think that'll be a lot of fun.

It really is amazing.

And probably the single worst media failure of all time, Pat?

Yeah, I think so.

Fair?

I think that's fair.

Yeah.

And

it's joyful to behold

because the people there are so reprehensible.

We're going to represent CNN Plus, like Brian Stelter.

We need more Brian Stelter.

Nobody wants as much as we have right now.

I think America has decided on that when the market has decided on that.

I mean, it sucks because there are people who are running cameras and have nothing to do with this.

They're just, and they got screwed, really.

I mean, they got invited over to this place to work that was supposed to be a billion-dollar venture.

And it can't be.

And it's not even there anymore.

I mean, that sucks for them.

And, you know,

the people who are putting the crap on the air and the people deciding about that and performing it.

It's hard to feel bad.

It's hard to feel bad for them, honestly.

It is.

This is the Glenn Back Program.
