Charlie Sheen is an icon of decadence.

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

He's going the distance.

He was the highest paid TV star of all time.

When it started to change, it was quick.

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

Now, Charlie's sober.

He's gonna tell you the truth.

How do I present this with any class?

I think we're past that, Charlie.

We're past that, yeah.

Somebody call action.

Yeah, aka Charlie Sheen, only on Netflix, September 10th.

Okay, really, all we have to say here is

you have to meet Niblick.

Niblick is the president's Sherpa guide.

Well, I'm just listen to the podcast.

You'll hear it develop as you go.

Blazetv.com/slash Glenn is the place to go to get your Blaze TV subscription.

The promo code Glenn will save you $10.

This Wednesday is a Glenn TV show where we'll seriously be looking at the president's mental health and what this means for the country.

I

hiking in the Himalayas with Mao and Niblik was showing us the ropes, so to speak.

You're listening to the best of the Blandbeck program.

All right.

So could we just, I just, I know this came out on Friday, but we haven't had a chance to chat about it.

Could you play that again, please, from the President Friday?

America is a nation that can be defined in a single word.

A single word.

I was in the

foothills of the Himalayas with Xi Jinping,

traveling with him.

That's who traveled 17,000 miles when I was vice president.

I don't know that for a fact.

I mean, do I need to say anything?

I mean, this should be very, very

clear.

It's a long word, a lot of hyphens.

Which word?

Oh, that word that describes America?

Yeah, that single.

I don't know what that single word has to do with the Himalayas.

You know,

I wish we would have heard a little bit more about his Sherpa guide.

Nothing says America more than the Himalayas.

Right.

That's what I always say.

And maybe he got to it later.

Maybe he's like, he did get to a Sherpa guide, Niblik.

And

there's one word that describes America, and that is Niblik.

Anyway.

That would be more coherent than what we got.

It would.

It would.

He helped me shimmy down ropes.

Anyway,

I don't know what the Himalayas has to do with it.

I don't know what the 17,000 miles has to do with it.

But the other really disturbing thing, besides not telling us the word,

and seemingly not being able to find the word

foothills,

that's disturbing.

The other is the last sentence there.

I don't know that for a fact.

You don't know what for a fact.

That you toured the foothills or you traveled 17,000 miles?

And when has not knowing the facts ever stopped you?

What the hell is that?

Sincerely, what is that?

You know, he's always off to, you know, my mother was Amelia Earhart.

No, no, she wasn't.

And now he gets down to 17,000 miles, but I don't know that for a fact.

What?

There's just, it strikes me that there are several conversations going on in his head that he thinks he's following but yes yes like aren't audible to others so when he said i don't know that for a fact i honestly think that was something he was thinking while he was thinking about niblik right you know what i mean right like i don't know that for a fact and it just came out is it possible the sherp is talking to him in his mind could be and he's responding to a very legitimate like, that could be a really good answer to what Niblik said.

We just don't know what it is.

What Niblick said.

Niblik was like, do you know that for a fact?

I don't know that for a fact.

That might have been, that might have been it.

Like, to him, he can't understand why everyone's criticizing him all the time because he's having a full conversation that makes perfect sense.

Yeah.

Niblick is like, are you wearing your mountain climbing shoes?

I don't know that for a fact.

I don't know.

To him, it makes perfect sense.

As he's saying, I've got one word to describe America.

Niblick is saying to him, have you ever been to the Himalayas?

Yes.

Now it makes sense.

Right, right.

Like someone interrupted him with a side conversation and he was just trying to be polite.

I do believe, however,

we should

have someone

qualified to ask the president if he is talking to Niblik.

Because if he is talking to Niblik, I don't know if Niblik likes buttons.

You know, I don't know.

I haven't met Niblik.

Okay.

I don't know Niblik.

He might know him very well, but I don't.

I didn't vote for Niblik.

And if Niblik is influencing our president, we should all know it.

Don't you think?

We should know that.

Yes, that is something.

I mean, look, I don't want to be a hater, but if the president does have an invisible Sherpa,

we should know it.

I'm pretty sure that's in the Constitution.

If it's not, our founders did not foresee what was going to happen.

We can just,

you know, 25th Amendment Part B.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

No niblicks.

Right.

No invisible Sherpas.

Right.

The Sherpas, if a president's going to have a Sherpa, it should be visible to the people.

Yeah.

That's a very...

I think so too.

Yeah.

You know, and it might be weird if you're, you know, you're walking around around with a, with a Sherpa guide.

But that would have been weird.

That would not be weirder than what we just heard.

I feel like the Constitution handles the visible Sherpa fairly well.

Right.

And we can understand that.

Now, if I remember right,

they were saying about Donald Trump when he used two hands to drink water.

He's out of control.

He doesn't know what he's doing.

25th Amendment.

Everybody in the cabinet is freaking out.

Yeah.

Well, I think that this president thinks Niblik is in the cabinet.

And I mean the kitchen cabinet.

We probably should check.

It could be there.

I wouldn't, would you be stunned if there was a Sherpa living in one of his cabinets?

No.

I wouldn't be stunned by it.

Would you, and I mean this sincerely, would you be stunned if he's in the middle of a speech and he just looks down to somebody about four feet tall that isn't there and says, stop it, Niblik.

I'm talking.

Would you be surprised?

No, no.

That's a problem.

Oh, my God.

That is a problem.

I wouldn't be surprised at all.

No, you wouldn't be.

I mean, I feel like we'd come on the next day, and there'd be like, Joy Reed would be like, if you criticize Nibblek,

you're anti-Asian.

That's what you are.

The white privilege of not having an invisible shirt off.

That's really what would happen.

Oh, my gosh.

You know it would.

Yeah.

You know it would.

That's incredible.

And you say it, and I really could picture something like that happening.

Like him just really invented.

Like, it would not be stunning at this point for him to blurt out something like, you know, Niblick.

And

Niblick from Misable Sherpa.

And it's possible.

I think if he did it, you'd have, oh, come on.

I mean, he just, it was a joke.

Oh, come on.

Come on.

He was, he got a little confused.

They would justify it.

They would legitimately justify it as if it was no big deal that the leader of the free world had an invisible Sherpa living in his cabinet.

I think we should get a hold of Niblick at some point today.

I think we should call Niblik.

I mean, if we can, I don't know.

You know, he's talking to Biden.

I don't see why he wouldn't be able to do it.

Why wouldn't you pick up the phone, Niblick?

Why wouldn't we be able to do that?

Holy cow.

No, Siri.

And now, can I have serious, really, seriously?

When are we going to just say, okay, when are Democrats going to join the rest of the world?

When is someone overseas going to go, come on, America?

Well, really?

They're probably already doing it.

I would assume people like Anthony Blinken are getting calls being like, what is going on over there, dude?

Like, what is happening with you?

What is going on?

And Blinken's like, oh, no, no, he's.

Oh,

I see what you're saying.

No, he's fine.

You are doing anti-Asian thing.

I do think that's probably going on already, but I can give you a quick preview of this decision.

It's not happening until 2022, the election.

Until that's over,

they will prop him up and fill him with air and inflate him around like a balloon and walk him around like a weekend with Bernie situation, no matter what state he is in.

I'm not sure that's true.

Have you seen the latest?

You've seen the latest from the New York Post today on

Hunter Biden.

But again,

they lose the Senate.

They lose the Senate

if they move him out of there right now.

They're going to lose the Senate anyway, I think.

I know, but why lose it a day earlier than you have to?

They're going to lose it anyway.

So they're going to maximize this timeframe.

I mean,

if there's a moment where they're really going to do this, it's right.

It's early 2023.

That is the, because then you have enough of an on-ramp to give Kamala, I guess, a shot to turn this into something.

What are you going to do?

You can't replace her with anybody.

If she became the vice president, who would you put as her vice president?

She can't appoint anybody.

Seriously.

I mean, if she appoints somebody with half a brain cell still working, you know, she could appoint Chee Chin Chong, and I would still say to her,

Hey, don't walk by any open windows.

You know what I'm saying?

You know who's always behind you by an open window.

I mean,

who

can she appoint?

Seriously, because she can't be president of the United States.

Why?

Because

she has South Asian heritage.

And she doesn't have a Sherpa.

I want to know who her, you know, that's what we should ask.

Who is Biden's Sherpa?

Which Sherpa is actually running the White House?

You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Michael Schellenberger, how are you, sir?

Hey, great to be with you, Glenn.

Thank you.

So, Michael,

running for the governor of California.

You've been there before.

You did this, what, four years ago, maybe?

I did.

We ran in 2018.

It didn't really take off then.

I know so much more now.

And I'm absolutely heartbroken by the humanitarian disaster that we call homelessness.

Our schools are failing.

We're in the worst energy crisis that was created by bad policy.

So I'm running again.

We've got a big movement behind us.

I think we've got a good chance this time.

I really hope so.

I mean, Michael, I'm sure we don't agree on an awful lot of things, but at least you're willing to look at facts and figures and see if that makes sense.

Nobody is seemingly willing to do that anymore.

For instance, California just passed

a law that is going to make the supply chain problem even worse.

They're passing regulation on truck and buses.

You've got all of these trucking companies that are being told now by the state, I think you have, what, until next year to replace your truck.

Otherwise, if you don't buy a new one with all this stuff on it,

you can't use it in California.

Well, who can afford a $300,000 semi-truck at the drop of a hat, let alone a whole bunch of them if you have a fleet?

That's right.

I mean, the problem in California is that the governor is controlled by a small group of people who benefit from these anti-human, pro-scarcity policies.

The truth is, California is rich in land, housing, energy, water, but the governor's people, Governor Gavin Newsome, they keep things scarce in order to make money off of ordinary people.

So when I'm governor, we're going to make energy abundant.

We should have abundant energy.

Transportation should be cheap.

Housing should be cheap.

I know how to do that.

We can do that.

But

it's a pro-human environmentalism, not an anti-human environmentalism.

So how are you going to get around all of these people that are making so much money going the other direction?

I mean, you know, you've got ESG you're facing soon.

How are you going to get and turn the tide on this?

I mean, the exciting thing is that the vast majority of people will benefit from more abundant, cheaper energy, housing, water.

I mean, I'll give you an example.

There's been a fight between farmers, environmentalists, and residents for 50 years over water.

We should have abundant water.

We've actually had a,

we agreed to spend billions of dollars to store more water.

The governor has blocked those projects on behalf of his

very well-funded group of people.

I'm going to build those projects.

I already have a mandate to do so.

We can also recycle water and we can desalinate water.

The Israelis export fresh drinking water because of their desalination program, even though they live in such an arid environment.

California should be doing the same.

We should be a world leader in desalination.

The key is abundant energy.

I'm going to make energy abundant again in California, and that's the key to ending this insane war.

over water.

So when you say you have a plan for energy, I know you're an environmentalist,

but

you're not crazy.

When I hear Washington state say they're taking all gasoline engines off the road, or at least to be sold by 2030,

you can't plug that many cars into the power grid without having brownouts.

So what are you going to do about energy?

The difference between the kind of environmentalist I am, I'm a pro-human, pro-abundance environmentalist.

The people in power, the people who created the worst energy crisis in 50 years, we're in the midst of the worst energy crisis globally in 50 years.

It was actually going on before Putin invaded Ukraine.

He was only able to invade Ukraine because Europe became dependent on Russia for imported energy.

I've been going to Europe for the last five years, six years, warning them.

They needed to produce more of their energy.

They needed to keep their nuclear plants operating.

They needed to rely more on American-made natural gas.

Instead, they became dependent on Putin.

So they were helpless to deter an invasion.

California is now as helpless as Europe is

on Russia.

We import 30% of our electricity.

It's ridiculous.

Abundant natural gas is the key to environmental quality and energy security.

And yet, anti-human environmentalists are blocking natural gas production and trying to shut down our nuclear plants.

I'll tell you,

if some of these states around you wanted to cut California off, they could cripple you just like Russia is crippling Ukraine and Europe.

They could cut you off because you're not willing to...

In California, you're not willing to have a coal-fire plant or anything else.

So you ship all that energy in.

It's like saying, you know, we're the United States.

We don't torture.

We're just going to ghost plane people to Egypt.

That's immoral.

That's right.

Well, if you go to people want to they can find out at Schellenbergerforgovernor.com, I describe how we're going to make energy abundant and secure in California.

Governor Gavin Newsom has made us dangerously vulnerable to blackouts.

He says he cares about the environment.

Glenn, he lifted the air pollution regulations against burning diesel because we were that close to having widespread blackouts because of his policies restricting energy consumption on behalf of a tiny cabal of ruling class political elites.

I'm going to stand up to them.

I'm organizing a movement of ordinary folks.

Look, most industries here in California, high-tech, agriculture, entertainment, these are industries that depend on abundant energy.

They don't want to have their energy, their life,

the lifeblood that runs through the entire economy strangled by a tiny group of billionaires making money on the backs of ordinary people.

And that's how we're going to get it done.

What do you think of the teachers unions and the, you know, the restrictions for masks and the teaching of

transgenderism in first grade kindergarten.

What do you think of those things?

I mean, look, you know, my parents were public school teachers.

My mom was a union rep.

You know, I think I benefited from great teachers, from personalized education, but nobody hates a bad teacher more than a good teacher.

My parents were the first to tell you that.

The teachers' union went way too far in California.

My daughter, 16, they kept these kids home for a ridiculous amount of time.

Under Gavin Newsom, California's schools became for the adults who run them rather than for the students who need them.

We're going to build a consensus around much greater parental choice and control over their children's education.

Kids need to get the right education for them.

And the teachers,

some of them have just gone bonkers.

I think it's a minority of them, by the way, that are pushing a doctrinaire, ideological, very far radical left agenda.

As you mentioned, my views are pretty moderately liberal.

But the things that they're doing, Glenn, one-third of our public school students are not proficient in math.

Half are not proficient in reading.

10% of African-American students are not proficient in, or 10% of African-American students are proficient in math.

15% of Latina students.

These are civilization-destroying numbers.

You should not be teaching woke, radical left, doctrinaire,

frankly, pseudoscience pseudoscience, when your kids can't even pass the math and reading tests, we're going to make a big change there.

The key is greater parental choice and control of their kids' education so kids can get the education that's right for them.

How much do you know about the Great Reset

and ESG standards?

I mean, if anybody Googles me online, they'll know that I actually once recorded an interview for the World Economic Forum.

You know, you know that I came from the progressive left.

I know.

And I've written two books now, Apocalypse Never and San Francisco, that really go through the evidence.

What's true, what's not true.

Climate change is real.

It's not the end of the world.

We've made huge progress.

The United States reduced its carbon emissions more than any other country in the world between 2005 and 2020, thanks to abundant natural gas.

Thanks to nuclear power, Europe and the United States have reduced our emissions.

Europe really did since the mid-70s.

The World Economic Forum is controlled by big bankers, by those same pro-scarcity billionaires.

It's a grift.

It's a scam.

They want to keep energy and resources, including housing.

They want everybody to be a renter, as you know.

They don't want people to own their own homes.

It's a scam.

It's a scam for them to exert greater control over people's lives.

Prosperity and abundance are the keys to human freedom, to human potential, to human well-being.

It's a very dangerous moment.

I mean, look at they created a world energy crisis.

They're trying to create worsening energy scarcity in California.

California is where the change is going to start, in my view.

We're gaining momentum.

It's an open primary.

I'm a no-party preference candidate.

I draw support in equal share.

It's quite remarkable from Republicans, Democrats, Independents, because my vision is common sense.

It's to enforce the laws, require people to stay in shelter.

You can't allow open-air drug scenes, open-air drug markets.

We're going to shut them down.

Michael, you sound more conservative than Mitt Romney.

I mean, I would have a much easier time.

I wouldn't even think twice if it was between you and Mitt Romney.

How is this going to work with

Californians who who are deep progressives?

Do you feel there is enough of a momentum that you can get

Republicans that

want change onto your side and still be able to get Democrats?

You know, here's the thing.

All the progressives, almost all the liberals and progressives I speak to, they want to feel safe.

They don't feel safe right now.

The people I talk to, they say, I'm a very liberal person, but I don't feel safe.

People are terrified, as they should be, of skyrocketing crime in California.

The lawlessness, the anti-police protest means that there's 500 fewer police that they need in Los Angeles, 500 fewer police they need in San Francisco.

My progressive neighbors, I live in the Berkeley Hills.

I live in one of the most progressive cities.

They want law and order.

And there's other things, too, that I'm going to do that that don't easily categorize.

We need a statewide psychiatric and addiction care.

Conservatives that I talk to understand that people with schizophrenia are now, they're shopping for the market for health insurance.

People with schizophrenia,

they're mentally, often are mentally disabled.

They're going to need lifelong care.

That's a liberal view I hold.

I still hold.

I believe that we must shelter.

all of our fellow humans.

It would be immoral to not shelter them.

That doesn't mean that they deserve their own house or their own subsidized apartment in Venice Beach or San Francisco.

We can't afford that, and that's not fair.

But universal shelter is fair.

Housing should be earned.

If we're going to be helping folks,

they need to reciprocate by working hard.

You know,

this governor has done such a terrible job managing our forests.

They go up into flames every year.

They need to be managed well with prescribed burns.

managed cutting.

And that means that, and traditionally, that means that we can use people that have been convicted of crimes, people who are on rehab.

We need more people working in our forests.

That's a great job for folks who are recovering from addiction, who are recovering from homelessness, and who are paying back the debt they owe society.

Michael Schellenberger is his name.

He is running for governor

as an independent NPP, is what they're called, no party preference.

Schellenberg for Schellenberger for governor.com.

Schellenberger for governor.com.

Michael, as always, thank you.

Good luck.

Thanks, Glenn.

Thanks for having me on.

You bet.

Bye-bye.

You're listening to the best of the Glendeck program.

This is the Glen Beck program.

Welcome.

Glad you're here.

I was having dinner with Chuck Norris on Saturday night, and

he's just an amazing guy.

He's just incredible.

One of the nicest guys.

He and his wife, Gina, they did Kickstart Kids, and it was a fundraiser for them.

And it really changes people's lives.

It really changes kids' lives.

And we were talking, and

I said to him, so, Chuck, at any point,

at any point,

did any punk come up to you and be like, you're not so tough?

I said, even in the 60s, you know, you're with Bruce Lee and everything.

That ever happened.

He's like,

no,

no, nobody ever did.

And he was kind of surprised by it, but I was thinking, well, because you're Chuck Norris.

But I would expect somebody would challenge.

And he said, never, not in his whole life.

Oh, incredible.

Yeah.

Really great guy.

They don't make enough of Chuck Norris's now.

Speaking of shortages, 29% of the top-selling baby formula products are out of stock and have been out of stock by mid-March.

DataASEMBLY, which tracks baby formula stock at 11,000 retailers, they say this is a shocking number.

You don't see it now for other categories.

We've been tracking it over time.

It's going up dramatically.

We see this category is being affected by economic conditions more dramatically than others.

The second largest pharmacy, Walgreens, Greens, with over 9,000 locations, announced it's now rationing baby formula.

Guys, we haven't even started yet.

Rationing baby formula, and they say it is because there was a recall in January,

but also vital ingredients we can't get.

Packaging apparently has problems.

The freight costs are through the roof and labor shortages.

It's incredible.

A friend of mine had a baby boy, Preemi, I think 24 or 25 weeks early enough that it was like almost impossible.

Yeah.

You know, 20 years ago, it wouldn't have been possible.

And touch and go for a while, lived at the hospital for six months, I think.

Finally came home, and they have to feed him this very specific type of formula that's easy for him to digest, I guess.

And

they had months of this formula at their house, and then this recall happened.

They had to throw it all out.

Oh, my gosh.

And now they spend half their time driving around Texas looking to different Walgreens and CVSs, hoping to find one canister of this stuff.

Imagine how frightening that would be if your child could not be breastfed.

That would be adopted babies,

you know, mothers with some sort of a problem, babies with problems.

I mean, that's got to be terrifying.

Terrifying.

And I mean, he's like, you know, we've got about three weeks left, so we should be good, hopefully, for now.

And we have an order in from Amazon.

We hope it comes.

Like, they're just like on the edge of their seats, trying to figure out whether they can feed their kid or not.

This is going to get worse, guys.

And I think you're right.

We're still at the beginning.

We're at the very beginning.

Listen,

take care of it.

Do all that you can do.

This is so important.

Do all that you can do.

Don't wait, get food storage, buy two of everything when you only need one and store one, however you want to do it.

But do all that you can do.

And then

trust.

Trust that God is good and gracious and that

whatever it is, if you don't have enough,

you know,

that's why you need a network.

It's why you need to rely on others.

You're not going to be,

you're not going to starve to death, not in the America that I know.

So, do all that you can do.

Please do it now so you can be a blessing to others.

Speaking of shortages,

how's the car coming?

We're almost approaching seven months now, aren't we?

Oh, no, we're over seven, Glenn.

Oh, we're over approaching eight months.

And we should point out, it's eight months since I officially placed placed the order.

So I went through a very lengthy process of, you know,

debating it and going back and forth.

And finally placed the order.

That was over seven months ago.

Because your car is like 10 years old or something, isn't it?

Yeah,

it's a 2000, I brought it in 2011, I think.

11.

So, I mean, it's almost, you know, it's coming up on 11 years old.

So you don't flip cars all the time.

No, and I liked the car that I had, so I just kept it.

And now we're at 120,000 miles on it.

Now I know it could ride a little bit longer.

But, you know, I am thinking about every time I get in the car, I'm like, this is like the transmission is going to lock up today, isn't it?

Yeah, you know, something's going to happen where I get no value out of the car at the end, or I'm going to have to spend you're really ahead of the game, really, in some ways, you know,

almost eight months ago.

Yeah, I wish I kind of went earlier because maybe I would have had the car delivered already.

But so I then decided, you know what?

I'm going to go with an interim car.

I'm going to get a new car that's not exactly what I want.

That's not the one I ordered

because I want to get something.

Yeah.

In case this

thing dies.

Yeah.

And,

but, you know, it's running great, so it should last for a longer, a long time anyway, hopefully.

But the

right as I'm ordering that one, which is supposed to come in today,

by the way, today.

Yeah.

We'll see.

A couple weeks.

It was a couple weeks ago I did it.

And then right as I, like three or four days ago, I got an email from the first dealership and said, your order was just pulled for production.

So I said, what does that mean?

And she said, we should

have a target

production date

within 30 days.

Oh, my God.

So that doesn't mean I get the car within 30 days.

It means we should have a target, a target production date.

I mean, this is the life we're all going to be living now.

This is the life we're all going to be living.

Because I keep thinking about how bad my situation is.

And it's bad, you know, I mean, from the perspective of like, this is America, right?

Like, I order a freaking car.

It's not bad.

I mean, we're not playing a violin for you, but it's.

They're supposed to be

knocking at my door every hour of the day to make me buy a car.

Remember the car salesman thing where they're like, oh, they're harassing people.

Now they're like, I'm not sure we can get you into a car.

I'm trying to spend money at these places.

They won't even return my calls or emails.

It's crazy.

So, but my story pales in comparison to your story.

Don't spray this up.

No, no.

No.

Which I remember, I think I'm pretty sure Mitt Romney was running for president when you ordered one particular.

So I bought an old Toyota Land Cruiser.

Right.

And I just,

I just, I just wanted it to work.

Okay.

Just wanted it to work.

Right.

And

now three years later,

three

years later, this place that, I don't know what I was thinking,

this place that is

working on it,

because

I blew a gasket last summer, and I'm like, okay, guys, put it in a box.

You don't even have to put it together.

Just put it in a box and send it to me.

So it's an old land cruiser that you were getting.

Reconditioned so you could use it.

Yeah, so you could actually use it.

You know what I mean?

How old is it?

1976.

Okay, so

yeah.

Modernizing it a little bit.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And so

I said, put it in a box.

No, no, no.

You will have it.

You will have it by Christmas.

I better damn well have that car.

No, no, no, no.

I made the mistake.

I didn't ask which year.

I just assumed it was last.

And then they said it'll be right after Christmas.

Then it'll be at the end of first quarter.

Oh, my God.

Now we're at the end of second quarter.

I think they sold this thing.

I think it's gone.

I think they maybe had a fire.

They sold it.

I don't know what happened to it, but I don't think I'm ever getting this car.

And if they happen to to be listening, put it in a box and ship it to me.

Good God almighty.

You know what?

There is what's happening to us now is I have a, I have a, an old cabin that was the original rat-infested, falling apart cabin built in like 1890.

And in it is the original wood stove.

And it says right on the front, Ohio, you know, made in Ohio, 1891.

And I have often thought, I mean, the town that that cabin is in is still only 500 people.

So I can't imagine how few people there were living in that area when that came and arrived in the Wells Fargo wagon in 1891.

And I thought, imagine what a big deal this was

back then.

I bet neighbors came from miles around to see the new stove.

If you would have just gotten a new car,

I would have been like, oh, and I would have seen it in the parking lot, walked around it, and you would have talked to me about it, blah, blah, blah.

Now I want to drive it.

Now I want to see, I've got to see this car.

It's like the Wells Fargo wagon.

We're going back in a time where like, wow, you got a new spoon?

Wow.

See, this is the best argument for Biden's presidency.

He's increasing the drama of every purchase.

You don't know when it's going to come.

If it will come.

It's amazing.

Lots of drama.

Lots of drama.
