How to Weather the Economic Storm | Guest: Ben Grzadzielewski | 4/7/22

Chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more, can make me feel like a spectator in my own life.

Botox, onobotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine.

It's not for those with 14 or fewer headache days a month.

It's the number one prescribed branded chronic migraine preventive treatment.

Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor.

Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms.

Alert your doctor right away, as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition.

Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk.

Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck, and injection, side pain, fatigue, and headache.

Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness.

Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection.

Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis, or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

Why wait?

Ask your doctor, visit BotoxchronicMigraine.com, or call 1-800-44-Botox to learn more.

Hey,

Zick Twisted Freak.

Welcome to the

program.

Big show for you.

Today you don't want to miss.

We're going to start with the attack on

religion now from the New York Times.

It's the latest.

Also, a few things to say about the governor, but that's a different story.

Let's talk a little bit about rough greens.

If you want your dog to be uber healthy, if you want your dog to live a longer life, I mean, who doesn't?

All of these things are great.

You can help even cut down on the vet bills if your dog is in top shape.

The way to help him do that and have a healthy body is by putting rough greens on the food, whatever you're feeding your dog, put rough greens on top of the food.

They scarf it down.

They love it, but it's full of everything that basically you and I both need.

Vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants, all the things that are cooked out of kibble food.

Get a free bag of rough greens for your dog to try out right now.

All you pay for is the shipping.

Just go to roughgreens.com/slash back or 833-Glenn33.

833-Glenn33.

Roughgreens.com/slash back.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together.

It's the core of survival.

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 Beck Program.

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenbeck Program.

Today, we've got a lot on our plate.

We're going to talk a little bit about what's happening on our border.

Probably the most unpopular thing the president has done, not even most likely or likely, it is, according to polls.

And that's saying something, because that's a pretty low bar.

It's his handling of the border.

He's now giving everybody smartphones.

Oh, well, so you get across the border, you get free health care, and you get free smartphones.

That's fantastic.

Now I really want to go.

The governor of Texas has decided, no, no, no, we're going to get tough.

Really?

Are you, Greg?

We'll talk about that and so much more.

Also, Biden yesterday said again, if I'm going to war, I'm going to go with you guys.

I don't know what that even means.

It was in context of Ukraine.

Again, I don't know.

The Hunter Biden laptop, now CBS says 150 transactions by Hunter Biden were flagged as curious by US banks.

Really?

I thought that was a fake.

We begin in 60 seconds.

Boy, I don't know if you saw, but the Fed, in the Fed minutes yesterday, they talked about the next rate hike will be half a point.

They are going to, they're going to jack with these.

And they're also saying that they are going to

start selling off, you know, all of the things on their balance sheet because they got too much on their balance sheet.

So we got to get rid of some of this stuff.

Really?

Who's going to buy it?

Let me ask you that.

Who is going to buy it?

Oh, and by the way, what they're selling off their balance sheet are our treasuries because they had to buy the treasuries to be able to print the extra money.

So they just printed it, took a treasury note, and said, Yeah, yeah, that's just legal.

This is legal.

We're doing that.

So now they have these trillions of dollars.

Well, who's going to buy them?

Especially now, who is going to buy them?

Well, somebody will buy them, but how much interest are we going to be on the hook for with all of the spending and all of these trillion dollars that the Fed

just printed up?

how much, how much you're going to pay, they're not going to pay.

Right now, interest rates have gotten to a point to where they are

in just the last couple of months.

Suppressing people from buying houses at an enormous rate.

We are down 40%

in loan applications now, just in the last few weeks, and it's going to get worse.

So please, if you're looking to buy a house, if you're looking to straighten out your finances, please go to American Financing at 800-906-2440.

AmericanFinancing.net.

They will help you.

AmericanFinancing.net, 800-906-2440.

Do it now.

American Financing, NMLS, 1-8-2-3-3-4.

www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

All right.

Thank you.

Let me start with

Joe Scarborough.

Joe Scarborough yesterday came out and was very upset that the

Biden story, the laptop story, had been suppressed by Twitter and Facebook.

He was very upset yesterday, thought it was shameful.

Here he is.

Post comes out with it.

They're the only one that comes out with it.

And then it is banned on social media.

That's bad.

Yeah, it's horrific.

That's bad.

Because, again, it is, I think we have to, you know, you have to say it.

It's a real story.

Wow, that is big of you.

Thank you, Dan Abrams, for pointing that.

It is a real story, and you have to say that.

And it was horrific what Facebook and Twitter did, according to Joe Scarborough.

Now, let me take you back into the time tunnel, tunnel, tunnel, tunnel, tunnel.

To a time when Joe Scarborough's memory has been wiped clean.

Here's a super classic from the same guy who said it was horrific.

That's what conservatives think they can lie through their teeth.

These right-wingers think at Wall Street Journal editorial page, think they can lie through their teeth and talk about

Facebook having problems and Twitter having problems with a story

that even the New York Post knew was a lie.

They knew it was such a lie.

We'll get to this, but

that they put a woman's name on the story reportedly that didn't even know her name was going to be on the story.

The man who wrote that story knew it was such a lie.

Horrific.

The New York Post knew it was such a lie that he refused to put his name on that story.

They publish a series of lies tell them by Rudy Giuliani who admitted that nobody else would take it but Rupert Murdoch's New York Post.

Okay.

All righty.

Thank you, Joe.

It's weird.

It's almost like what you were saying there horrific.

Is that the same person?

You're saying that person that you, the first clip and the second clip, the same person?

Well, it's the same person, but

he's kind of a chameleon.

He goes wherever the winds are going.

You know what I mean?

I'm a conservative.

I hate conservatives.

I love conservatives.

I hate conservatives.

You know, that's true.

That's not true.

That's definitely not true.

It's horrific.

It's an outrage.

You should go to jail.

That seems to be totally true.

That's Joe Scarborough.

Those two clips are almost like a person who believes they can say absolutely anything and no one will ever notice.

Yes.

They just completely disagree with themselves.

And you know what?

It's true because no one watches MSNBC.

That's okay.

It's good reasoning, then.

Let me show you something that I was really kind of excited about when I first heard it.

I thought, yeah.

And I'll tell you how it ends in a second.

But first, here is cut eight: Governor Greg Abbott from the great state of Texas.

To help local officials whose communities are being overwhelmed by hordes of illegal immigrants who are being dropped off by the Biden administration, Texas is providing charter buses to send these illegal immigrants who have been dropped off by the Biden administration to Washington, D.C.

Wow.

We are sending them to the United States Capitol where the Biden administration will be able to more immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our border.

Oh, it's done with such compassion, such,

I mean, it was almost a little Ron DeSantis, wasn't it?

And when I say a little, I mean maybe like his pinky.

I mean on his foot.

And I think you can walk without a pinky.

I think you could lose the pinky on your hands and your feet, and you're fine.

So when I say a little Ronde Santis, I mean the appendages that you could lose and still not notice.

That's how much of Ron DeSantis he was.

Okay.

Okay.

Why is that?

Because what he said, now listen carefully, listen very carefully to what the governor said, because

it was revealed later,

but he knows because listen to what he's saying.

Play it again.

To help local officials

are being overwhelmed by hordes of illegal immigrants who are being dropped off by the Biden administration.

Yeah.

Texas

is providing charter buses

to send these illegal immigrants who have been dropped off by the Biden administration.

Hey,

what's wrong with that?

What's wrong with that?

That sounds great, doesn't it?

The key word here is providing.

Providing.

We're providing

tour buses.

Okay.

What are you upset about paying for it?

No, no, no.

No, no.

These illegal immigrants need to volunteer to get on to the buses Texas is providing to send them to the hellhole of Washington, D.C.

Now,

I mean,

even if you don't speak a word of English, you hear

Washington, D.C.

as they're pointing to a bus.

I don't get on that bus.

I don't understand, though.

I've been told that illegal immigrants are treated terribly by Texas and wonderfully by Washington, D.C.

Yeah, no, we're just.

Why wouldn't they want to go to Washington, D.C.

immediately?

What?

Wouldn't that be their priority?

Because

even if you're not in America, you don't want to go to Washington, D.C.

I don't understand.

We're told over and over again by the media, the people who treat illegal immigrants fairly are the people in the blue states and the blue communities who are embracing them and giving them all these programs.

Why wouldn't they want to go to Washington, D.C.?

I don't understand.

So now, Ron DeSantis, Rick DeSantis, Ron DeSantis, Rick Ron, Ron DeSantis, You're so well versed in this story, you almost know his name now.

We are getting to the point where

we think by the

2024,

election night, Ron DeSantis wins the presidency.

We call him

President DeSantis.

There you go.

That's how we solve this.

You're never going to get the Rick and Ron thing.

Yeah, I've never.

But eventually, if he becomes president, you can say that.

You know what you should do?

Governor DeSantis.

Governor DeSantis.

There you go.

Governor DeSantis.

So anyway, Governor R.

DeSantis.

Governor, I don't know.

I don't know why you have a hang-up on this one.

I think it's Rick Santorum.

I don't know why.

I mean, I never think of Rick Santorum, but that's the only thing I can.

Well, every time that you get this name wrong, I think of one specific thing.

Yeah.

Go ahead.

Say it.

And there you have it.

Another example of why Glenn Beck is in the Radio Hall of Fame.

There it is.

There it is.

There it is.

You're exactly right.

Exactly right.

Do you get his name wrong?

I don't get his name wrong.

Are you in the Hall of Fame?

I am not in the Hall of Fame.

Enough said.

Anyway, anyway,

Governor DeSantis,

you know, he said that he was going to send people up to Delaware, and it was great.

He didn't because he tied it to those ghost planes in the middle of the night.

And he said, we don't know when they're coming in.

We would have to be prepared to meet them at the airport.

So I don't know if that was a loophole that helped him get out of it or not.

But he did say, when these ghost planes land, we are going to bust them and send them to Delaware.

All right.

If the United States government can take illegals and just dump them into our border towns, these towns do not have the capability of doing it.

I, for one, as a Texan, am sick and tired of what this government, U.S.

government, is doing to Texas.

They are intentionally doing this to Texas and the entire country, don't get me wrong.

Because they're hitting every state.

They're hitting every state.

So they're doing it to all of our communities.

But I

really...

Really don't understand why we can't take people who the feds just dumped into a city, have no connection to that city.

I don't know why we can't pick them up, put them in a bus, and feed them well, treat them well.

They can all be singing the Flintstone songs along with John Candy and Steve Martin as they take their train, plane, or automobile some other place, a blue state.

That does seem logical to me, though I will say

the legal aspects of this are always an issue, right?

And

don't toy, don't dance around it.

Then say, then the governor shouldn't come out and say, we're providing, and then reveal the details.

And, oh, by the way, here are the details.

Right.

But like, is Ron DeSantis doing this by force?

No.

So

it might be.

No,

I know that.

I know that.

But

don't be a used car salesman.

You didn't read the fine print.

Right.

You're saying that he's the way he's announcing it.

Obviously, I think the average person would hear that announcement and say,

when he finds an illegal immigrant, he's going to put them on a bus and ship them to Washington, D.C.

When in reality, he finds them.

Not when he finds them, they're being dropped off at city.

I don't know if you've seen the interviews with the mayors of these border towns.

Oh, they're they can't believe, and they're a lot of them are Democrats, by the way.

And they are pulling their

the United States government is pulling these buses up and then just dumping them into these towns.

Okay,

the town, there are more illegals in these towns than there are townsfolk.

Okay.

Right.

I don't understand why the state can't say, yeah, this is out of control.

You're going over here.

And we're going to dump you at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Logically, I obviously agree with you on this.

But I mean, I remember the Arizona case where Arizona not just had an announcement by the governor, but passed a law that was going to enforce immigration law and it got overturned in the Supreme Court.

Yeah, well.

So I don't, I don't, maybe there's just no way to go.

I'm sorry, but this the Constitution is not a suicide pact.

No, I don't believe it.

But when the government does not abide by the laws itself, when the government is

abusing the rights it was set up to protect.

I'm sorry.

I'm not leaving America.

Joe Biden's America left me.

I'm still in America.

I still believe in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

I believe in equal justice.

I believe in the rule of law.

Joe Biden's administration and Joe Biden's America and the left, they don't.

So I'm still holding old glory.

I'm still here with my pocket Constitution and Declaration of Independence, and I still abide by all of that.

But the government doesn't.

When is it going to be enough for states and governors just to say, I'm sorry, but you're you're not going to collapse my state and me just sit here and take it.

The good news, though, is if Greg Abbott were to lose, we can, I'm sure Betto will handle this more appropriately.

Oh, yeah.

He'll nail it.

Oh, no.

He'll nail it.

It'll be fantastic.

It'll be fantastic.

And by the way, even if they do say, oh, you can't do that, Supreme Court, how many buses could we get to Washington, D.C.

before

the court case and an injunction?

I think we could get a lot.

So let's load up a lot of them.

And then we just let them go in Washington, D.C.

They'll have their smartphone so you can track them.

And then, you know, when the federal government says, hey, you can't do that, okay,

all right.

Well,

tell us where they are with their smartphone and we'll ask them to come back on the bus.

We'll give them optional buses to come back.

All right.

Our sponsor this half hour is Relief Factor.

Patrick wrote in about his experience.

He said, I got such great results, Glenn.

My knees used to hurt so bad that walking sometimes, just getting in and out of the car was difficult.

I'm three months in and I hardly even think about my knees now.

I can't tell you how great Relief Factor has been for me.

It works.

Thanks so much for recommending Relief Factor.

Listen, Patrick, you are welcome.

Thank you for actually trying it because that's the key.

It does work for 70% of the people around that.

70% of the people who order it, the quick start trial pack for three weeks, they go on to order more month after month.

Now,

either these are just very wealthy people who just don't know what to do with their money.

I've got to get this pile of money down.

I'll spend $19.95 a month on Relief Factor, you know, or it works for them.

It means it doesn't work for 30%, but you won't know unless you try it.

Please try three weeks.

Just take it as directed and see if it doesn't relieve your pain by a significant amount, at least in my case.

ReliefFactor.com, that's relief factor.com, or you can call 800, the number 4 relief.

800 for relief.

Relief Factor.

Feel the difference.

10 seconds, station ID.

All right.

Stu.

Yes.

Here is the latest from CBS News on Hunter Biden.

Cut five.

CBS News has learned that more than 150 transactions involving either Hunter or James Biden's global business affairs were flagged as concerning by U.S.

banks for further review.

Some of those concerns included large wire transfers.

This week, Grassley released bank records indicating James Biden's company, the Lion Hall Group, was paid directly by a Chinese-financed consulting firm.

What?

These records come directly from the banks, no third party.

You're absolutely right.

In our interview, Grassley did not allege the Bidens broke the law, but he said it's concerning that both Hunter and James Biden were promised retainers for their China work totaling $165,000 a month in 2017 after Joe Biden left the vice presidency.

This 2019 subpoena, verified by CBS News, shows federal investigators also sought Hunter and James Biden's business records from a major U.S.

bank dating back to 2014 as part of a separate probe by the U.S.

Attorney in Delaware into possible violations of tax and foreign lobbying laws.

Huh.

Huh.

Now that's interesting.

2014.

2014.

This is all of the stuff that we presented.

We didn't have those documents, but these are all of the things that we presented during the impeachment of Donald Trump.

We presented all of this because it tied directly into what was happening in Ukraine.

And the media covered for it.

Do you remember at the beginning of Iraq when they were rebuilding parts of Iraq?

Do you remember who got the big contract?

Has zero,

zero construction experience.

None.

You remember who got the big contract for rebuilding places in Iraq, rebuilding houses and things in Iraq?

I don't.

Joe Biden's brother.

Yeah, that was what, you know, he's not had a lot of attention on

where, you know, Hunter, obviously the splashy, you know, cocaine off a hooker's bellies type stories have made a lot of news.

But his brother, and Peter Schweizer's book, not even this most recent one, but a couple of books before that, was highlighting all of his brothers.

This is a crime family.

This is definitely a crime family.

And,

you know,

it's interesting as this heats up.

Does Joe Biden

resign

only to get a Nixon, a pardon from the new administration, the vice president who would become president, a pardon for

he and his son?

Is that

possible?

Is that probable?

Oh, yeah, they're not going to jail.

I can tell you that.

The Glenn Bach program.

You squeeze hooker drug addict son, and he'll sing all day long.

Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

The book, The Great Reset, my latest, been out now 10 weeks.

Number one on BookScan again

this week, which would make it the number one USA today bestsellers list etc etc

and the new york times coming in at number

15.

i mean i've not but we've been complaining about this for years yeah oh yeah but this is a book

your first number one uh your first number one book scan bestseller was uh an inconvenient book back in like 2006 and it was released the same weekend i believe as i think it was stephen colbert's book or it was jon stewart's book jon stewart's Stewart's book.

And they came out right at the same time.

And there was a, we were like, we didn't think we had a chance.

Frankly, we didn't think we had a chance.

And you actually outsold that book and you got the number one on book scan.

And we were number two on the New York Times bestseller list.

And I remember thinking, this is crushing.

Like the New York Times, that's the one everyone talks about.

And we were number one.

We actually sold more books and they gave us number two and we complained about it like crazy.

Now

this has gotten so bad that you are number one on book scan and number 15

on the New York Times list.

The number three book,

number four book on the New York Times list coming this week is the 1619 project, this terrible false history.

Totally discredited.

Yeah, it totally discredited over and over again.

That sold less than half as many books as you did, and it's 11 spots ahead of you.

And the number one is Will Smith.

Unbelievable.

Will Smith's book is number one.

And you outsold him by

just eyeballing it, 40 or 50%.

Same thing with number two.

Then that's a Dave Grohl's book, which you outsold by about 50%.

None of the other books came even remotely close to how many books you sold.

And yet, number 15.

By the way, down two slots from last week, and we were number 13.

Number one, I book scanned both of those weeks.

I am

going to proudly put that on the on the when the soft cover comes out.

I'm going to put that.

Number one, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, blah, blah, blah.

Number 15, New York Times.

Anyway, they just are revealing themselves as just total frauds now.

It's hysterical.

Anyway, you can get this.

I think Amazon is out now.

There's a couple of places where you can't can't get it again.

You can go to Walmart, Barnes ⁇ Noble, or Books a Million and grab the Great Reset, 10 weeks, number one book in the country.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you for

paying attention and sending this to your friends.

I mean, when we put this out, didn't know if anybody was going to read it.

You know, we didn't know what was going to happen with the Great Reset because nobody was really talking about it.

But there was an underground to it.

Started talking about it.

Now everybody, Elon Musk tweeted about it just this last weekend on, what did he call it?

Devil's Playground or, you know,

Devil Incarnate.

Yeah, the Devil.

ESG scores.

Yeah.

ESG scores, the Devil Incarnate.

He's right.

He's absolutely right.

Devil's busy lately.

I don't know if you've noticed that, but he's like,

can you guys,

can you just take this for a while?

I mean, you vacation.

You seem to do a good job at it.

Biden's there.

I think he can do it.

I'm taking a vacation because, man, America, you're wearing me out.

Incredible.

Congratulations.

That's a big, big accomplishment.

I mean, I don't remember maybe some, maybe there was a book that did this.

I don't ever remember seeing a book.

Christmas sweater.

Christmas, well, Christmas sweater.

But it died.

It was out for like six weeks, and then Christmas was over and it died.

Yeah, I was thinking maybe common sense

was.

After that many weeks.

But of course, common sense was number one in week one.

Yeah.

Your book didn't.

We didn't have any books to sell in week one.

And that's why we were number 14, I think, on the New York Times list.

We've been bouncing around that 13 to 15 error.

Strangely, still number one on book scan that week.

Incredible.

But anyway.

Just incredible.

So I want to go to Ryan in South Carolina, who is talking about our border.

Hello, Ryan.

How are you?

I'm doing well.

How are you?

Very good.

I was calling just to discuss the

illegal immigrants coming across and the federal government spreading them all over the place.

And human trafficking is illegal no matter who's doing it.

And I've heard you talk a bunch of times about how local sheriffs are really going to be important in major constitutional matters and states' rights.

And why can't our local sheriffs arrest these

bus drivers for human trafficking?

At minimum, this would push this story across the country on the national stage and get this.

Sheriffs, I leave that to you.

We've got to have a lot of sheriffs listening to us.

Can you do that?

Would that be legal to do that?

Call us now, 888-727-BECK if you're a sheriff.

Thank you so much, Ryan.

You know, that's the...

I don't know.

Do the bus drivers even know what's going on?

I mean, some of these, if they're just chartering buses, you just show up for work one day, you got a bunch of people, and all of a sudden you're getting arrested for who you've been trafficking to.

You know, but you know what, I mean, you know where you're going eventually, too.

Um, the thing that I like about Ryan's suggestion, I'm not saying that that's the something we should do, I don't know.

I'm not a local sheriff, um, but uh,

uh, oh, I should be, that'd be fun, wouldn't it?

Yeah, that would be fun.

I deputize everybody, you need to carry a gun, anyway.

Um, the uh,

uh, the

that's, I think, the thing that bothers me about Greg Abbott, because Greg Abbott has just told the federal government what he's going to do.

So you could have quietly pulled buses up right next to the buses Homeland Security is renting.

All the people are coming out, and you can have a flyer, beautiful, Washington, D.C.

It'd have to be full of lies, but you got to come here.

The benefits are great and everything is free.

It's wonderful.

Just get on this bus.

And they wouldn't have been warned in advance.

Now that Governor Abbott has said this, shockingly in an election year, now Department of Homeland Security is going to say, hey, by the way, they're going to try to get you on buses and go someplace else.

Don't do it.

Okay.

So, all right, you won't do that now.

Why didn't he do that?

Even if he said, I'm only going to take the volunteers, why wouldn't you do that without announcing it first?

Well, I mean, I got to believe that

a

press gathering is, there's a calculation being made here.

He's in the middle of an election year, and he wants people to know about it.

Yeah, I don't really care about words anymore.

I don't know about anybody else.

He's saying he's doing something, right?

His argument.

I mean, like,

when that bus, when those buses start to take off, you let me know.

I guess we can.

I mean, look, I think you're right to be skeptical.

And

I don't know what you can do legally in these situations.

This is why.

I don't either.

But you know what?

These states are the victims, and these border towns are the victims of federal policy.

People like Joe Biden are victimizing these communities, and

they can and have been doing it for a long time, and states and cities have not been able to fight back successfully against it legally.

So, I mean, there's only so much I suppose you can do, but.

Well, you know what?

I would test the limits.

I would have, you know, I have access.

If I'm governor, I have access to some really good attorneys.

Yeah.

And I'd say, guys, do you think you know this for absolute sure?

There are definitely people who would

say, no, we can make that case.

Great.

Load them up.

Tomorrow morning, 6 a.m., they're taken off.

If somebody calls, you know what?

I'm not around until 2 in the afternoon.

By at least that time, they're out of the state of Texas.

Well, if they left at 6 a.m.,

okay, call me at 9 p.m.

and they'll be out of the state of Texas.

But once you get a hundred buses on the highway anywhere and the left finds out and they're like, we need to stay,

and they find some federal judge that says, you can't do that.

You got to stop the buses right then.

That's your press conference.

And they, yeah, right.

And they certainly have rights.

I mean, they have rights, you know, at some level.

I think.

The states, I mean, I think you should get a bunch of buses and have two lines, and one sends them back to the border,

back to Mexico, and the other one sends them to D.C.

You can choose.

You want to stay, you just go there.

You want to go back home?

We'll, we'll get it.

We'll get you there too.

We're a wonderful state like that.

We're very accommodating.

They're just destroying.

When the law is lifted of Title 42,

when that's lifted, May 23rd, by the way.

It's going to be a disaster just an absolute humanitarian disaster people don't understand imagine your town of a thousand people

having 5,000 illegals camped right outside of your town you can't with what how am I going to help them what are you doing to us there's no infrastructure for that I mean honestly like if you're going let's just take this into the the the realities of the left-wing world that we don't enjoy if you're going to accept hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants per year into your country, the correct place for them to go are large cities, right?

Because they have infrastructure there.

As we've been told over and over again, they're the only people who like those that look different than them.

So why wouldn't they all go to San Francisco and Washington, D.C.

and New York City, the place that they claim will care for them?

Why are you sending them to conservative

outposts in the middle of nowhere with no infrastructure?

This is not even warning.

And not even warning.

Not even warning the states of the city, just showing up.

How is that good for these people?

How is it good?

If you really care about them,

you're just going to dump them on a street and you're not going to tell anybody.

No organization is there other than probably voter registration.

Nobody is there to welcome them, to answer questions, to be a bridge.

Sometimes charities step up.

Sometimes some of that stuff happens sometimes.

But you put it to a community with, as you mentioned, a thousand people.

A town with a thousand people has almost no infrastructure at all for this type of thing.

It's not what you do.

By the way, I have a very, very Texan

slogan

for Governor Abbott's campaign.

Yes.

Governor Greg Abbott for re-election.

All hat.

No cattle.

Should we put this on the Beto posters?

Is this what you're looking for?

You want Beto to win?

You want a Beto.

Glenn Beck is endorsed Betto O'Rourke today.

That's what's happened on this program.

That will go viral.

You say that.

That will go viral.

Good.

I need some repentance.

No, I tell you, I'm not.

But I'm also not going to roll over and just take people who are, you know, he said the federal, uh, the federal money, he won't end the emergency.

He said, I won't end emergency here in Texas for COVID.

Um, while he declares another state of emergency, which is justified at the border, uh, he said, I'm not going to declare a state of emergency because that would allow Austin and cities like that to go back to the masking and everything else.

Because the banning of the mask mandates, which has happened in Texas, is part of that emergency

mandate.

It's just that case.

At this point, let them.

Let them.

The people will cry out, whoa,

wait a minute.

Let them

end the mandate, Governor Abbott.

End the mandate.

You mean the emergency?

The emergency.

Yeah.

End the emergency order.

What is the negative of having the emergency order right now?

They never end.

They just never end.

They never end.

It gives governors too much power.

Way too much power.

I don't like the emergency declarations at all.

They almost always lead to bad things, but I just don't.

I haven't seen ⁇ because it seems like the only reason they're using it at this point is to

stop these.

Well, that's what he says.

That's what he says.

And, you know,

fine if that's what you actually believe, but I trust the people to make a decision.

I trust the people to do the right thing.

I don't trust the TSA, but look at it.

Even the airlines are like, stop it.

Stop it right now.

The airlines that were all for it are saying, stop it.

You go ahead, Mr.

Mayor of Austin.

Mask up the whole town again.

All right.

Hey, Joe Biden's here to fix things.

He wants the Federal Trade Commission and other regulatory agencies to impose price ceilings.

So not price controls.

No, no.

No, these are price ceilings.

Who doesn't like ceilings?

You want to live in a house without ceilings?

Protects you from the rain.

Exactly right.

Well, it's raining hard.

And we seem to have amnesia.

Price controls we used in the 60s and the 70s just made inflation worse.

But this time it's different.

Oh, it is.

Yes.

Because these these are ceilings.

These are, thank you.

If they would have just used ceilings previously, everything would have been instead of price controls.

Yeah, yeah.

So

the price ceilings that they used, you know, price controls, they said, you can't, you can't charge more than this.

Those became the price floors quickly.

And then you were looking at a new ceiling.

You got to reset that ceiling now.

Yeah.

Yeah, that ceiling's too low.

Way too low.

We said, who wants a living room with 18-foot ceilings when they should be 50?

Right.

Thank you.

You're right.

You're right.

It's been bothering me for years that there was no Cracker Jill.

And it's great that they have a whole bunch of Cracker Jills.

Kind of like, oh my gosh, kind of like Radio Tokyo had multiple Tokyo Roses.

That's interesting.

Let me help you prepare for the lions, the tigers, and the bears in 60 seconds.

Julie wrote in about her husband's experience with Relief Relief Factory.

She says, I ordered Relief Factor for my husband.

He couldn't be happier.

He hasn't had the stiffness and pain in his lower back lately, and he suffered with that for years.

My only regret is we didn't order it sooner.

It's a great product.

Julie, I'm delighted to hear that.

I have seen multiple people get relief from their back pain,

including my niece who has horrible, horrible back pain and has had surgery after surgery and has tried Relief Factor and finds relief with it.

Listen, if you're dealing with pain, please give Relief Factor a try.

Not a drug, but developed by doctors, has four key ingredients that will work with your body to fight inflammation, which causes most of our pain.

The three-week quickstart, developed for you, $19.95.

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

Try it right now.

Take it three times a day for three weeks.

70% of the people who try it go on to order more because it works for them.

ReliefFactor.com, relieffactor.com or 1-800 for relief.

So we have inflation.

We all know that we have inflation.

And it's not just here in America.

Inflation in Peru is getting so bad now.

The Peruvian authorities have

been in a scuffle in the streets.

Six people were reported dead.

Then the president came out, put a state of emergency out, placed the capital under curfew.

The next morning, he had to backtrack and withdrew the curfew because nobody listened to that curfew.

His, I love this statement.

You're going to love this too.

His statement to the press is, Bruce not really going through a good moment, end quote.

Suboptimal.

Suboptimal.

Suboptimal.

Now 11 people are dead.

It is because of high gas prices and high food prices.

Everything is hitting the economy.

Their inflation now is 9.5%,

almost 10%

is what they're dealing with.

We're at 7.5, but that's only because we calculate it in a crafty way.

If you calculated it the way we did when we had inflation like this last time during the 1970s and 80s, we would be at about 15% inflation.

That's the real number that you're feeling right now, not this 7.9 or 7.5%.

Just still really bad.

Still bad.

Still very bad.

So they're trying to blame the rise in food and gas prices on the Ukrainian war, and that is contributing.

But prices were already on the rise before the invasion began.

And that's because we're flooding the US dollar all across the world.

I mean, Noah, build a freaking ark.

The money wave is coming.

In Germany, if if you went to the grocery store on Sunday, this just a few days ago,

you bought groceries.

If you forgot something, you really regretted it if you went to the grocery store on Monday because Monday, food prices went up between 20 and 50%

on every item.

They're freaking out just a little bit.

Now,

farmers and ranchers have been ringing this bell for a while, but the federal government is not doing anything about the real crisis that is happening with the farms and the ranches.

Why?

ESG.

They're going to cripple them.

But in the meantime,

if you look at the Food Commodity Price Index, it's up with vegetable oil, cereals, dairy, meat, sugar, way above normal.

and rising.

A large chunk of the wheat production comes from Ukraine and Russia.

Bizarrely, not us anymore.

I don't know when that changed, but it's shameful, shameful what we have done.

Not only is the wheat production now closing down in Ukraine and Russia, but also fertilizer.

Just from inflation and the Ukrainian war, we are now looking at shortages coming in food, fuel, fertilizer, aluminum, and neon.

Yes, no more, no more eat signs.

Can't make them.

Can't make them.

Actually, neon is

used to make

silicon chips.

And we use

high tech.

No issue with

no chip shortage whatsoever.

Now, aluminum affects the price of all of your canned goods.

China is locking back down again due to another wave of COVID, and it is as serious as it was the last time when everything stopped coming from China.

We don't have any idea how bad this is going to get.

We are now, listen to this,

we are now the largest food importer in the world.

We import

more food than anyone else.

China has more than double our population.

Yet we double the amount of food that we import.

I mean, they have almost four times our population.

Yeah.

Yeah, but we import double than they do.

That should tell you how out of control this country is, how we have just paid attention to all of the wrong things.

We aren't making our own medicines anymore.

We're not making anything.

If the world, nobody's really talking about this.

If the world does go bipolar, we now have a unipolar world.

The United States and the West pretty much runs everything.

You go bipolar like we did with the Cold War.

All of that fuel that comes from the Soviet Union, all of the medicine and chips and everything else that comes from China, gone.

What does that mean for us?

So here's what it means to me.

Prepare.

And I want to go through some things

with you on how to prepare your family.

Now, I know that Bloomberg has said, ride the bus,

or my favorite was eat beans.

I love that one.

I mean, at least Marie Antoinette said cake.

You know what I mean?

But let me try to give you some things.

Is he riding the bus to Bermuda?

Yeah,

he is.

Well, he's got his house down there.

Yeah.

So let me give you a few things that I have come up with.

And also Carol Roth, who's going to be on the program tomorrow,

also came up with.

And she's been working with people online saying, okay, what are you doing?

We have to think like our grandparents, if your grandparents survived the Great Depression.

Inflation means your

dollar.

It's not the price of the goods that is going up.

This is so important to understand.

And you can learn about it in the Tuttle Twins books.

It means that your dollar is worth less.

The products aren't worth more.

Your dollar is buying.

It has buying power that has been lessened.

Okay.

So

when the prices increase, what you can buy decreases in volume.

Okay.

Items.

For items that you believe are going to go up in price.

And this is in a new article by Carol Roth at

theblaze.com.

You try to lock in the prices today.

This has been something I've been saying, buy two of everything.

If you need one, buy two and store the other one.

And

don't use it.

Don't use it.

This way, you're not paying the higher price in the future.

You're saving money by buying two of everything right now.

Also, you might want to talk to goods and services providers to see if they can give you a discount on any bulk purchase or paying in full today.

Just make sure that the goods aren't perishable or that you know how to properly store them.

For any ongoing services you pre-buy, make sure they're from companies you believe will still be in business when you need to use them.

She said Twitter followers responded that they are cutting out grocery stores and going straight to the farmers.

This is a fantastic idea.

Some are finding friends and families to split a cow for meat, freezing as much as they can to secure better pricing.

Others, with the ability ability to care for them are getting chickens for eggs, etc.

Many individuals are planting or canning vegetables, dealing directly with local farmers via the farmer's market or contacting them directly.

And this is helping keep important food prices down.

I can't recommend highly enough

that you either plant your own food.

If you're a farmer, Plant your food.

If you have space for a garden, plant your own food.

You can't do any of those things.

Go meet the farmers and talk to them directly because they need your support and you need their food.

The other thing is get into a farmer's market.

And if you don't have a farmer's market, start one.

We need farmers' markets in all of our towns.

You've got to think locally.

One of the Twitter followers of Carol said, in December, I established a local Liberty Urban Homestead market.

It's a group on on Facebook.

The goal is to set aside some space we have in our urban and suburban homes to grow or raise something to exchange with others completely voluntarily, decentralized and peer-to-peer.

This is really a great idea.

Anything that you can do that's voluntary, decentralized, and peer-to-peer is great.

Bartering is peer-to-peer, and it is always used in tough economic times.

Goods, food products, all of it can be bartered.

If you have a skill, like you need somebody to tell you a story,

I'm there.

I'm there.

You know what I mean?

I've got skills that are so valuable in things like the Great Depression.

Yeah,

I can sit and talk

or not talk.

I could tell stories.

I don't know that you're capable of not talking.

I think there's just talking.

All right.

Well, I can work on the rest of that.

I got no skills.

You and I both.

We're dead.

Toast.

We starve to death.

I've got no skills.

We provide finely marbled meat to cannibals.

Exactly right.

Exactly right.

If you go the barter route, make sure you're very clear about the expectations of both parties.

Having something written down helps avoid problems in the future.

Also, note that barter transactions are taxable.

Make sure you keep track of the bartering and speak with your accountant for guidance on how to account for all of this and the tax implications.

You got to do that.

You want to make sure that you're.

This brings me to the next thing that I think is one of the toughest.

Location, location,

location.

Live near like-minded people.

Lots of them.

Texas, Florida,

mountains, any place, the Amish, any place.

I mean, you'd have to wear black, but I bet you could blend in.

What?

I can't use the blender or the TV or the radio?

What?

Just put on a black dress, you're fine.

I mean, even if you're a man, it'll be fine.

They are so woke.

Any place where God plays a role, because you are going to need to be around like-minded people who believe in a higher power for good.

That's kind of important.

If you can't move, fine, most people can't.

If you can't move, create a network of people.

Find a network and create it.

Start your 9-12 project again, whatever it is.

but find a network of people around you that you can contact and you can work together.

Don't be alone.

By the way, when this hits, where you are is where you will be.

I am convinced of that.

I could be wrong.

But

I don't see people buying a lot of gas for trucks and things going across the country.

When it happens, that's where you will be.

Make sure you think about that right now.

Moving is a serious consideration.

It is so tough.

I mean, I've got kids in school.

You have maybe kids in school, family, you've built a life.

It's really tough.

But at least consider it if you are alone in the area.

I'm going to take a quick break.

Then I'm going to come back and talk to you a little bit about money, electronics, your school, and your life at home and life at work.

Coming up in just a second.

First, let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins.

You know, I just mentioned that,

you know, inflation is a big part of our life.

Inflation

is so important to understand.

And if you don't understand what inflation is, how it works, who's responsible, how to get out of inflation, we're in real trouble.

The Tunnel Twins books I've told you about for a while, they are for your kids, and they help your kids learn really important principles.

This one is The Creature from Jekyll Island, and I'm bringing this one up.

This is one in a series, but you can buy just this book.

Or actually, I've asked them to give it away for free.

I think this is so important.

Every household should have this.

Even if you think you can explain it, even if you think you know what the Fed is, how it works, what inflation is.

Get this book and pass it on to somebody because it's really easy to understand it.

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

Vital, so vital, I have asked them to give it for free.

All you pay for is shipping.

So go to tuttletwinsbeck.com while the supplies last.

Get your free copy from the tuttle twins, the creature from Jekyll Island, tuttletwinsbeck.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

Just trying to go down the list of things to be prepared for.

This list is at glenbeck.com.

We also have to take the preparedness test.

I'd love to take that with you.

See how different we are.

Oh my gosh.

Yeah.

It's at glennbeck.com.

How prepared are you?

I don't know if I would be embarrassed by that because my outcome would be terrible compared to yours.

But I mean, that's always been the case

of all situations.

And so far, you know, it's worked out okay.

It's worked out okay.

Just keep going.

Yeah.

Soy sauce, duck sauce, you are fine.

Right.

You are fine.

That's basically all the food groups.

That's right.

Soy sauce is one food group.

It's duck sauce is the other.

Meat and vegetables.

It really is.

I mean, what else do you need?

Meat and vegetables.

You got soy.

Eh, it's a vegetable.

Sure.

It's pretty much a vegetable.

Sauce isn't made of duck.

I think it is, but we can count it.

We can count it.

All right.

So

let me go with money.

The money that you have right now,

you are going to lose.

Let's put $1,000 in your bank account.

You will lose 10%

of that

every year just leaving it in the bank account ten percent of that every year for the next ten years

so what does that leave you with in the end that's not good it's not good i'll tell you that it's not good and that is not coming from me that's coming from uh barack obama's uh uh treasury secretary uh he said that a couple of weeks ago uh and he said that's baked in that's bare minimum bare minimum so your money is going to be worth less and less until it's worthless.

And then they will change over in the currency.

So what do you have as a storehouse to be able to keep your money valued at something?

What can you buy that will forever hold its value?

Well, that's where gold and silver come in.

Some people will say Bitcoin.

That's risky.

I mean, but everything is.

But gold and silver, I know, and silver can be used for bartering.

Gold can be used for bartering.

It's good that way, and it's biblical.

I mean, it's been there forever.

When the world goes insane and governments go insane, they devalue their money and everybody returns to gold.

So gold.

But also, food has great value.

Cigarettes have some value.

Liquor.

I mean, let me just tell you, as an alcoholic,

I would have, I would have, I would have,

you know, you have a problem with your neighbor?

I would have eaten them if I had to, if you had alcohol and I had none.

So, but I'm not saying play off the desperate alcoholics.

What I am saying is...

It seems like what you're saying.

Well, it's not that I'm not saying that, but

I am saying that it is also medicinal.

It is something when, I mean, because...

Ah, I like that.

It's an alcoholic talking right there.

It's if anybody watched 1883 and you saw what they had to do in 1883

I better have a lot of alcohol on my hands but anyway

so alcohol

cigarettes sugar ammunition guns seeds those are all very very important skills are really important.

I mean, can you fix an engine?

I can't.

I can't fix a new engine.

No, I don't know anybody that can fix a new engine, but I can't even fix an old engine, which brings me by a truck or a vehicle prior to 1979, something you can learn to fix yourself.

Try to have at least two weeks, if you can, 30 days of cash on hand.

So in other words, whatever you spend, if you can,

have it, I think, for a couple of weeks, if you can.

It's a lot of money, but try to have whatever it is that you would spend minimal.

That way, if there is a banking crisis, which this will go into a bank shutdown like it did in the 1930s,

they will do that.

And you're going to need to have something on hand.

Otherwise, you're like, but George, all my money's in the savings and loan.

You're going to need to have some cash.

More in just a minute.

No, it's not good.

Not good.

Stu just said, I have an old pre-1979 car, but it's British.

Nope.

Start it.

It won't do.

You could fix it, but you'll just fix it again tomorrow.

Listen to this.

All the details on how to prepare were on the show last night on Glenn TV.

Don't miss it.

Blazetv.com slash Glenn.

The promo code is the Alamo.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

I'm going through some things I went through last night on the Wednesday night special about what is coming and how to prepare.

It's not to freak anybody out.

Well, let me just tell you this.

This might freak you out.

We all survive.

Okay.

Well, most of us survive.

We make it through this.

It's going to be bumpy and

rough, but we've done it before.

Humans have done this before.

We are very literally and figuratively out of shape.

We don't understand

don't waste.

We don't understand reuse,

repair.

We don't get that.

We are a very disposable group of people.

The head of

BlackRock came came out, what was it last week and said, you know, this is a generation of people who just want everything now

and they've never had to deal with real need and they've got a real eye-opening experience.

Oh, well, thank you, Mr.

BlackRock.

But we do.

We all do.

All of us.

And I can't tell you.

You know, it's weird.

I do this show for everybody,

but I know there are people that listen to the show differently, have ears that hear and eyes that see.

And so I hope you're in that category.

But if you are,

and I take this medicine myself, believe me, we have to be in shape.

We have to have our bodies

in shape.

It's going to be harder for medicine and everything else.

There'll be shortages of things.

So we just need to be as healthy as we can be, eat the right things,

and be be as, and do that mind, body, and spirit.

It's critical.

And

sometime in the future, I'll explain why, but start

on that

now.

Buy a house.

Buy property.

Don't overspend.

Don't get crazy.

But don't be afraid of the future.

Don't be afraid of the future.

You have to move on.

Everything I'm doing right now has a double purpose.

If it doesn't serve now and

through

a storm, I don't do it.

I've changed a lot here recently.

I feel strongly that the seasons have changed.

And with it, I am shockingly to myself changing as well.

Because you talked about the Kay-Schiller Index and how high it is right now.

I mean, this is a very overheated housing market right now as they get to buy.

I don't want to give anybody financial advice.

What I'm trying to say, I guess, is

don't spend your days worrying about tomorrow.

Do the next right thing.

Okay.

Understand that what's coming tomorrow is unlike anything we've witnessed in our lifetime, unless you live through the Great Depression.

We have not witnessed anything like this before.

And so you've got to think out out of the box.

That's why our grandparents were so afraid because they didn't think that kind of stuff could happen.

And then it happened.

And they were pretty prepared for things because they lived, you know, on farms, they canned and everything else.

So they weathered that storm, but it freaked them out so much that all the way until my grandparents died, they were still saving every scrap, every can,

wrapping paper.

They always saved all of it.

And they used to say, you don't know how fast it can come.

Well, we don't.

We don't even think it can come.

So stop all excess

spending.

Stop spending on stupid stuff.

And when you do buy things, buy quality.

You got to teach your kids and maybe yourself, don't buy things with holes in it.

Okay?

Because you're going to earn those holes.

Those clothes are going to earn holes eventually.

Measure twice, cut once.

Consider fuel-efficient trucks, SUVs, if you can find them.

Make get off electronics as much as you can.

Make paper copies of all of your important documents.

Know where the deeds are to anything that you own.

Learn to use a map.

Teach your kids how to use a map.

And then have maps.

When it comes to business, if you are, you know, somebody else's employee, be the one employee that no one can fire.

Be the Swiss Army knife.

Whatever needs to be done, do it.

Don't wait for anybody to ask.

You see something?

Do it.

Be the American worker that we used to be.

If you are in business for yourself, be the product or the service that no one can cancel.

Stay in business.

Just preserve, preserve, preserve.

Honesty, integrity, and charity.

It's paramount in business and really in life.

No one is going to know who to trust

unless you have engaged in honesty.

If you have integrity, and you are known as a charitable, kind, helpful person,

you're not going to help anybody because nobody's going to listen to anybody.

You need to be known as a source of good and light.

This is a conversation we're having with my kids right now.

I'm not sending you to school.

You want to go to school?

Fine, you pay for it, but I am not paying for your destruction.

Also, I don't think everybody needs to have those, the higher education.

I'm not enamored by Yale or Harvard or Columbia.

I don't really care.

I don't really care.

Did you learn what you needed to learn?

Now, if you're a doctor, I mean an actual hands in someone's chest doctor, yeah, I want you to go to the best school.

But you know, there is something to be said for trade schools as well.

My son wants to eventually build his own car.

Good.

You should start with knowing how to change a spark plug.

And mechanics and people who can fix things.

They are going to be wanted and needed.

Forget all of this crap that that's beneath my sun.

No, it's not.

Teach your kids, college is not a given.

Educate yourself at all times.

Always be reading and have hard copies of important books.

Learn old or lost practices, mending, canning, farming, fixing an engine.

Serve and share in your life.

This one has taken on new meaning to me recently.

I I understand this now more deeply than I ever have.

I'm a guy who I like to collect stuff.

I mean, if you watched the show last night, I showed you the missile collection that I have from Russia, Russian missiles that they're actually using now on the Ukrainians.

I have a bunch of them, and I have a bunch of stuff that the Ukrainians were using to fight the Russians, just to be able to tell the story visually.

I love collecting stuff.

Yeah,

every dollar I make,

and I would encourage you to think this way, every dollar you now make

needs to be viewed as sacred money.

What can I do to help build up?

Go straight with you.

Remember when I said, when I start talking like this, you'll know?

I think I'm there.

You need to think about your money as building up the kingdom of God.

You need to start preparing the way.

And don't spend money on stupid stuff because we are going to need each other.

Teach your children the things that matter.

Forget about running them to soccer practice if you're not teaching them values and principles.

Teach those things first.

Do less, do with less now.

It will help your family

take the shock a lot better.

Read the Bible.

Plan, pray, listen, obey.

Have a gun.

Know how to shoot it.

Have ammunition.

Understand that anger is a part of your life.

This is so important.

Anger will be a part of life.

But never feed it.

Be honorable in all of your dealings, especially when nobody is going to know.

Be honorable at all times and be optimistic and happy because life does go on.

Life is going to get really good.

Should we choose?

Life is going to get really good.

It's going to suck on the way there, but it is going to get good.

Make plans for the future.

Get married.

Have children.

Don't listen to people who say you're going to bring them up in a world like this.

Yeah.

Because

they were meant to be born at this time.

I'm telling you now, our children,

our children are important.

And they were born for this time.

And they will be able to help heal and rebuild.

They are critical.

Don't buy into the lie.

How's your dog doing these days?

Oh my gosh, my wife keeps getting pictures of dogs every day.

Look at this one.

Look at this one.

I'm like, just pick one.

Just pick one.

Yeah, this is just, this is how it works.

What are you waiting for?

I'm fine.

Whatever.

And she's like, you don't want a dog.

And then when she says, when she's in the mood to say, I don't want another dog and

you want a dog.

And I'm like, no, honey.

Learn this about men.

We don't care.

About almost anything.

Anything.

Whatever you want.

I'm fine with it.

Anyway, Rough Greens.

It It will help your dog lead a happier, healthier, more active life.

I am shocked at my dog Uno.

At this age, Victor, my other German shepherd that we lost years ago,

we had to carry him up and down stairs.

German shepherds, their hips get really bad and they just die too early.

Well, he is.

10?

11?

He's going on 11, I think, this summer.

That's old for a German Shepherd.

And he acts like he's a young kid still.

And I saw the difference happen as we started feeding him rough greens.

Probiotics, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, omega-oils.

That's what's in rough greens.

You sprinkle it on the dog's food, and they love it.

Rough greens, try it.

They'll give you a bag for free.

Glennbeck.com,

there's a survey out there, a quiz.

How prepared are you for, you know, coming trouble?

So we're going to take this quiz here.

How would a friend describe you?

You put no thought towards preparedness.

Every emergency situation is a potential disaster.

You have put minimal effort into preparing for basic emergencies.

You put regular organized effort through being prepared.

Your friends and family consider you to be prepared, but you'd probably turn,

and they would probably turn to you in most emergencies.

Prepping is a way of life.

It's more than a personal thing.

You've just made it a group effort with your family.

You are one of the friends.

You are one of the people that friends will turn to in a zombie apocalypse.

You're ready for anything.

You absolutely terrify the liberal.

Second one.

I'd be the second one.

Minimal?

Minimal.

I have some preparedness for basic emergencies.

I'd say I'm the last one.

Yes, you're the zombie apocalypse guy.

Yeah.

Condiments.

What do you have?

What's your food supply?

Condiments in your fridge, potato chips in the pantry.

Got both of those.

Some non-perishable foods, such as canned goods, cereal, pasta, rice, and beans.

Yeah, I got that.

Sufficient non-perishable foods specifically stored for emergencies for two meals per day per person for a month.

I think I might get to that level.

Okay.

One year supply of food, water.

Definitely not.

Full capacity, small farm, ranch, goats, cows, pigs, chickens, other livestocks, able to produce food perpetually for yourself, your family, and others.

I do have a lot of animals.

Yeah, I do.

Mostly a zoo at my house.

You do?

I don't think I want to eat them.

Yeah.

Iguanas don't count.

I would say the only part that says food perpetually for yourself.

I don't know.

I could be a very bad farmer.

And also, you eat a lot.

Yeah.

So, all right.

What emergency supplies do you have on hand?

Huh?

Supplies?

No.

Basic first aid, over-the-counter medicines, flashlight batteries, manual can openers, blankets.

Yeah, okay.

All of the above, plus portable emergency kits for the whole family, sleeping bags, water for your purification, basic gas, or solar.

No, I don't have a generator.

Oh, my gosh.

All of the above, plus barter items such as gold, silver, ammunition, building hardware, clothing, major first aid supplies, including antibiotics, basic surgical equipment, capacity to generate energy.

This is not even the highest level.

Basic surgical equipment.

Yeah.

I do have clothing.

All of the above, plus farming equipment, solar bank with deep storage batteries, horses, ATVs for travel with stored feed and fuel, heirloom seeds, fertilizer, compost.

Surgical kit, including scalpels, clamps, sutures, staples, blood transfusion.

I got, no, I don't have that.

Okay,

I don't have the blood transfusion.

See, you're not prepared.

You're not prepared, and I don't have an x-ray machine.

What

self-defense equipment do you have access to?

Wishful thinking, whatever's within reach, something on hand, like a baseball bat, handgun rifle, shotguns, battle rifles, at least 10,000 rounds.

My guns are at the bottom of a lake.

I have a boating accident.

Still, that's weird.

I don't have any.

What plans have you made for disruptions?

This gets interesting.

We'll finish this survey and give you the results next hour.

Take it for yourself now at glennbeck.com.

It's good timing because I have so many people I want to launch into space.

Oh my gosh.

We should make a list.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You know, I was talking to a friend.

What were we watching the other day?

And, oh,

I was watching Gilded Age with somebody and they said, and it was about the, you know, electricity coming on for the very first time.

And they were just in absolute awe awe of it.

And I thought, what is it that would stop all of us right now?

And we would just go,

oh my gosh.

Is there anything,

anything that we could accomplish?

I mean, I don't even, I think going to man, landing a man on Mars would be one of those moments, but not really, not like it was in the 1960s.

I mean, it would be incredible.

It would be incredible, but it would, would it stop the world and have them go,

oh my gosh, I never thought man could do that?

No, I believe we can do it.

It's just a matter of like putting the resources in that direction if that's what we want to do.

So have we lost all awe?

A lot of it.

I think so.

Accomplished a lot.

It's weird, isn't it?

I was talking to my son, and he's like, why haven't we been there already?

I mean,

there's nothing in their minds that man can't do.

Got no room to compromise.

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

Stand up straight and hold the line.

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

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

This is the Glenback program.

Hello, America.

There is

a new

manufacturing facility that is being opened up, or they want to open up, in Grand Forks, North Dakota.

It has several large-scale production facilities.

They make animal nutrition.

It seems like a good thing.

It'll attract 200 jobs.

There's a couple of problems with it.

One of which is it's a Chinese company opening up their first manufacturing plant in America.

Okay.

However, the city council has seemingly cut all kinds of corners and they want this to go through no matter it seems what the people say.

We're going to talk to somebody who is living this right now and wants to explain what's going on and would also like some explanations on what's going on.

We go there in 60 seconds.

Now,

come on man.

America

needs you.

Okay, I don't know if you know this, but sawing logs is a vital job in our economy.

Inflation and supply chain shortages, we hear about them all the time, everywhere.

Blowing in the dust of empty streets are signs that say help wanted, but nowhere is that want more felt than in the log sawing industry.

Are you doing your part?

Come on, man.

Sawing logs all throughout the night.

Can you join me in that?

I've done it.

Thanks to my pillow, another great American, Mike Lindell, having a special right now on all of his products, including the Giza Dream Sheets, which are fantastic.

It will help you do your part for this economy.

We need more log song.

So do it now.

Do it now.

All right, you sick twisted freak.

Now, I want to make sure that this is not twisted around into something like,

you know, fear of the Chinese.

You're just chinophobic.

No, no, I'm not.

And I don't think the guy who is standing up and trying to fight against this plant

in North Dakota is either.

It's Ben

Gradjaleski.

Is that right?

That's correct.

That's correct.

Oh, my gosh.

You have way too many letters in your name.

Ben, first of all, let me just ask you a couple of quick questions just

so I know where you're coming from and we're really clear on it.

You don't have a problem with

foreigners.

No.

Okay.

You're not

Asiaphobic.

You're not like Chinese people.

I don't trust them.

Oh, no, not at all.

Okay, good.

Because that, you know, I'm sure is being said or could be said.

And I'd like to not repeat the 1940s, hey, let's round up the Japanese.

The people are different than

the country.

All right.

So we've established that.

So

there is this.

plant being built.

And as I understand it, the community was not

consulted by this it's just going through the city council and they're trying to shut people up who are against it right

it appears to be that way yes okay tell me what's happening

well so apparently the city leaders have been working on bringing this project to town for

somewhere around two years before they even brought it into the public eye.

And it came into the public eye late last fall,

early early winter and and then since then they've just been pushing it through there was never any you know question to the the citizens of the town hey do we want this manufacturing plant uh is this something we want to put our tax dollars towards to to entice to come here there was never anything like that and there just seems to be a lot of issues with it

that are coming along with this plant and and we don't have a say in it so let's go through some of the issues i i would have to say even though i asked those first two questions, I do believe this is different.

Is this a, I mean, I'm sure it is,

a communist party

owned or at least partially owned company from China?

Well,

they say it that it is not.

They assure us it is not.

I don't.

But, however, there's been studies done that show otherwise by independent analysis.

Okay.

Analysts, rather.

You know, so

I guess

the people trying to sell us the plants assure us that everything is

a-okay though.

Yeah, there's no such thing as that in a communist country.

All right, so tell me what the other problems are.

You're putting out taxes.

I assume this is going to cost you guys in tax-based?

So

there's a close to a hundred million dollars worth of taxpayer dollars that is going to entice this company, you know, through infrastructure, roads, gas pipelines, water pipelines,

sewer and water.

And there is a 20-year payback program from this company.

Okay.

That is what they are telling us how it's going to be.

So

theoretically, at the end of the day, if everything works out,

the company comes down and in 20 years and they stay, we should have our money paid back, you know, and then some

through the property tax.

I would assume that it's going to create jobs.

How many jobs is it going to create?

They're talking 233 direct jobs and 500 or something indirect jobs

is what they are saying.

All right.

You know, and the average wage on the direct jobs is not that high.

I mean, it's 50, it's in the mid-50s, but that's average across the board.

So, you know, when you start getting your executives and top high-dollar earners in there, I don't think at the end of the day, they're going to be real high-paying quality jobs.

And then you have

problem because of the not you, but the

people who are standing up.

You had a water problem recently, and they're using, this plant will use more water than the entire town in a day?

It will use slightly less.

We use about 7.5 million gallons a day on average as a city.

They're going to use about 6.5 million gallons a day.

Okay.

And do you have the water?

According to their studies, yes.

But last summer they were requesting that the citizens reduce their water usage because we were running out of water.

And I have found several different reasons why, and I've got several different answers as to why that was last summer.

But they don't all really necessarily line up with each other.

So that's kind of a big red flag for me.

What are the other problems?

Well, there's pollution, smell.

Smell is a big concern for a lot of people.

They're situating this plant on the north, kind of north-northwest side of town, and that's where the prevailing winds come from around here.

So

anything that they produce,

exhaust or dust or any of that, will all be blowing right across town.

Okay.

So this, so what's happening?

You're putting a petition out because you're just asking for people to vote on it.

Don't leave this up to the city council, right?

That's exactly right.

We went around, we needed about 3,617 signatures to get it to a vote.

It was 15% of the last voting population, last gubernatorial election.

And we collected 5,318, I believe it was, and turned them in,

to which the city leaders, the city attorney and the city leaders immediately went to work.

to, as I said earlier, it seems like they are trying their hardest to disqualify the whole thing.

And how are they doing that?

Well,

first off, they have a police detective, had a police detective calling around, calling petitioners, calling the signers with a couple different questionnaires, depending on who they were talking to, with a list of, I don't know,

10 questions each or something,

you know, just trying to ascertain exactly what they were shown, how they were asked, if they were pressured.

It's kind of bizarre.

It feels like they're going way above and beyond what they actually need to do to verify signatures.

See, I think this is where people always get in trouble.

I mean,

if there's nothing unseemly about it, just let the people know.

Just give them all the information.

Trust the people.

But

I mean, even apparently in Grand Forks, how big is Grand Forks?

It's about 60,000 people.

60,000 people, and they don't trust the community?

Evidently not.

It sure is not looking that way.

I don't know.

Maybe there's an ulterior motive here.

It's strange, though.

I mean, we've had petitions done in this town in the past, and they have never used police, police detectives, anything like that.

I mean, sure, the city auditor has called folks randomly to check, but I think a phone call from a city auditor is much different than a phone call from a police detective.

So if the petition, when will you know if the petition is going to be deemed valid or not?

That's a little up in the air.

They had said at the last city council meeting that they were hoping to have it done by tomorrow, hoping to have us an answer by tomorrow.

And if it is valid, then it goes for the election?

It should go to the

June election, yes.

Okay.

And if it's not, then what do you do if they say it's not valid?

I honestly don't know the answer to that.

I know if it's thrown out based on invalid signatures, you know, if they cross off too many signatures, we will have seven days to go get those signatures rectified

and get them returned in.

If it's due to invalid paperwork, which is what they were indicating at the city council meeting, I don't know if we have a recourse.

I'm not sure, honestly.

So, how can we help you?

Well,

we can use all the support we could get on our Facebook group, which is Grand Forks Community Awareness of Foo Fung.

Of Foo Feng?

Yes,

it's actually spelt F-U-F-E-N-G, but it's pronounced Fufang.

Okay, so it's like Fu Fang.

Fang.

Correct.

Yeah.

With an E.

Okay, Grand Forks Community Awareness of Fufang project.

Yes.

Yes.

Just rolls right off the tongue.

All right.

Well, best of luck.

Is this surprising?

Ben, how long have you lived in Grand Forks?

Most of my life.

I spent about a year and a half elsewhere, but

37 years.

And is this surprising that this is happening in your small town like this?

Absolutely.

You know, back to the petitions.

We've had petitions in the past that were done on the wrong paperwork, and the city attorney actually helped them to get it to vote.

And now it seems like we are going in 100% the opposite direction here.

So, yeah, it's very disappointing that they're trying to suppress the citizens having a say.

It sounds very un-American.

Please let us know

what happens, and hopefully, there will be a little ground shake

in your town.

Appreciate it.

We appreciate you having us on.

Thank you very much.

You bet.

Again, you can find Facebook, Grand Forks Community Awareness of Foof, Fu Feng, Fu Feng Project.

You know, the only reason why I have that is this is such a small community and such a local thing that

why would you be interested?

I mean, we have debated this story in our production meetings and our producers with the meeting with the producers for a few weeks.

We've been talking about it.

And

it just keeps coming up because of a couple of reasons.

I think it's important because

you don't know what's happening in your own town.

You really don't.

And people, it's so easy for people to say, oh, well, it's not happening here.

It probably is.

It probably is.

You would be surprised at the size of the towns that are part of the Agenda 2030 project from the United Nations,

which falls right into the Great Reset.

You'd be surprised.

Money doesn't talk.

It screams.

And there's been a lot of these towns that are roped into it now.

And you would have no idea the things that are going on in our schools.

You think

that it couldn't happen here.

it's not being taught.

It is.

It is.

And the people who you think are really good people, and they probably are,

but they are part of it.

They are part of it.

It doesn't make them a bad person, just makes them wrong.

And a lot of those people are teachers.

No matter what a teacher says to you.

I firmly believe if you are in the teachers' union and you know what's going on, you are part of the problem.

You're part of the problem because you are funding the group of people and the union that is trying to sever us from our children.

It is happening.

It's happening everywhere in America.

Even a small town that now seems to have something funky going on with this Chinese plant that is coming in.

More in a second.

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

So interest rates are finally going up.

They're about to skyrocket, is probably a better way to put it.

We're talking over the 5% range.

We're already at about 5%, and it's going to come.

The next

interest hike is going to be half a point.

That could put us in the 6% range.

This has been coming for a very long time, but if you haven't prepared yet, you need to.

You need to call American Financing.

They are not part of the problem.

They're part of the solution.

They work for you, not the bank.

They don't take any kickbacks from the banks, no incentives, none of it.

And everybody is salary-based.

Call American Financing.

A loan with them could literally change everything for you.

You could skip up to two mortgage payments and close in as little as 10 days.

So if you want a refi, you want a new mortgage, or you want a consolidation loan, call American Financing at 800-906-2440.

800-906-2440, AmericanFinancing.net.

So what's really frightening to me about this story in North Dakota, it goes right to what the president said yesterday when he was speaking to the labor unions.

Can you give me the cut where he's talking about Amazon?

Listen to this.

That's what unions are about, in my view, about providing dignity and respect for people who bust their neck.

That's why I created the White House Task Force on Worker Organization Empowerment to make sure the choice to join a union belongs to workers alone.

And by the way,

By the way, Amazon, here we come.

Watch.

Is that a threat?

You damn right it is.

No matter what the White House said, that is a threat, and he knows he's making it.

By the way, Amazon, here we come.

What are you going to order a bunch of stuff, Joe?

Is that what you're going to do?

You're going to start ordering?

What do you, what do you, you're ordering like, I don't know, hand wipes, you know, depends.

What is it that you're

no, you mean

look out, Amazon, because we're about to put the screws to you.

That is using a presidential elected

paid for by all of the people, union and non-union.

That job, his office, is paid by all of us, and he's weaponizing it to come after companies like Amazon because he wants them unionized.

Same thing with Tesla.

You know, he invited everybody on the green revolution.

You know, everybody who's got an electric car for GM, come on in.

Not Tesla?

Tesla's leading the world on this.

Are you kidding me?

They didn't even invite.

You know why?

Because he's not offering any incentives on Teslas.

He's not holding them up as an example because they've done it without the labor unions.

This is insanity, what's going on.

The labor unions were the biggest contributors to his campaign.

Can you imagine if the Koch brothers, who, I don't know, made a different kind of Coke and all of a sudden the president came out and said, yeah, and you know what?

If you're not using Coke, well, I'm going to send two brothers and some other visitors your way.

Everyone would be up in arms if he even said Coke.

Here he is in front of the people who gave him more money for his campaign.

This is a payoff.

That's all this was.

You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours.

You pay, and I will get into office, and I'll give you much more

at our expense and our freedom.

This guy is corrupt to the core.

Anybody who could do with his son and his family what he has done, apparently for a very long time,

just

figure out ways to get rich off of his name and his position in office and use his family to do it.

This guy's a despicable guy.

He really is.

I mean, let's be honest.

You have a son that is this sick?

I mean, Hunter is sick.

Let's be honest about it.

He is deeply, deeply

wounded at best.

Would you use your son to do this?

Would you put him in that situation?

And by the way, if they do talk about arresting him, I'm telling you that kid will sing, sing, sing.

He will tell them whatever they want against dear old dad because he, according to his emails, doesn't really like what dear old dad has done to his whole life.

You look out.

Don't forget about Amazon.

You watch out, Joe.

Because here come the special prosecutors.

If you missed my special last night, you need to check it out.

It's at Blazetv.com.

It's the Wednesday night special.

Pretty obvious about anybody who has eyes to see that our country is headed towards a serious cliff right now.

And,

you know, like the Titanic found out, most of that iceberg is under the water.

You need to act.

Stu,

I read something today that I thought,

no, this can't be true.

And then

as I read it, I thought, definitely can't be true.

And then by the time I finished, I thought, ah,

I'm pretty sure this is actual.

Oh, no.

Okay, this is a New York Times editorial today.

Opening day of Major League Baseball season, which falls on Thursday after being delayed for a week by labor dispute, is as good of an occasion

as any for fans of the game to come to terms with certain hard facts.

I'm talking, of course, about the inevitable future in which professional baseball is

what?

The inevitable future

that baseball is

gosh

woke

that it's

nationalized.

The inevitable inevitable truth that baseball is nationalized and put under some authority of some federal entity.

Why on earth would that occur?

Attendance at the games have declined steadily since 2008, and viewership figures are almost hilariously bleak.

An ordinary national primetime MLB broadcast, such as ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball, attracts some 1.5 million pairs of eyes each week, which is to say roughly the number that are likely to be watching a heavily censored version of Goodfellas on basic cable movie channel at the same time in the same time slot.

Even the World Series attracts smaller audiences than the average Thursday night football broadcast, the dregs of the National Football League's weekly schedule.

In 1975, the World Series had an average of 36 million viewers per game.

In 2021, it barely attracts 12 million per game.

Casual events.

We're going to...

Okay, 12 million a game.

We're going to nationalize.

Oh,

he hasn't started yet.

Okay.

Casual observers may assume that despite the lack of popularity, baseball is still somehow insanely valuable.

This illusion.

Major League Baseball generated around $11 billion in revenue in 2019, but this figure does not accurately reflect the demand for its product.

Mike Trout's $426 million contract is effectively being paid by millions of grandparents who just want to tune in to Anderson Cooper Cooper or the Antiques Road Show.

Oh, stop.

As that audience dies off and younger generations of cord cutters take their place, baseball's revenue will plummet.

Culturally, the game is increasingly irrelevant.

The average age of a person watching baseball on television is 57, and one shudders to think what the comparable figure is for radio broadcasts.

Typical American 10-year-olds are as likely to recognize Jorge Soler, Soler,

who was named the most valuable player of last year's World Series as they are their local congressional representative.

College athletes drafted by.

That's a ridiculous point.

In some parts of the country, participation in Little League has decreased by nearly 50% in the past decade and a half.

When my wife and I signed up our five- and six-year-old daughters for T-Ball a few weeks ago, we did so partly out of the grim sense of obligation.

We might have been Irish parents enrolling our children in step dancing classes.

This is your heritage, and you're going to learn it, and you're going to love it.

I don't think I'm super bullish on the future of baseball as compared to maybe some other sports.

I love baseball, but I mean, this is a ridiculous piece.

You're taking out a guy from the MLB MVP who, yes, he wouldn't be highly recognized, but like there are a lot of players in baseball who would be, and those are the guys that win the MVP for the entire season.

I think it's worth being honest upfront

about what nationalizing baseball would entail.

Well, I'd like to think that the Biden administration could just take all the 30 teams and dissolve the league by executive fiat, citing language.

Who wrote this?

This is pathetic.

Who wrote this?

This is written by Matthew Walther.

He's an editor of The Lamp, a Catholic literary journal.

He writes frequently about sports.

He should stop writing frequently about sports.

I don't think he's ever heard of sports.

So listen to this.

It's more realistic to assume Congress would have to be involved.

Legislation would authorize purchasing the teams at their current, although absurdly inflated market valuation.

Players, coaches, and other staff members would become federal employees.

General manager would be appointed.

Blah, blah, blah.

I mean, this has got to be a joke, right?

Was it April 1st that it was posted?

No, I think this, I just got this today in my show prep.

So, no,

April 7th is today.

Maybe he's just late by six days.

Maybe.

Come on.

Why would we, first of all, we shouldn't nationalize it even if it collapses.

This can't be true.

It is not, we should not be involved in that in any way.

We should not nationalize anything.

I would also note that one of the teams plays in Canada, so I don't know how you'd be nationalizing

the Toronto Blue Jays.

That would be an interesting trick.

No, it can't be.

It can be sure.

April 6th.

That is one of the guest essay opinion, New York Times, April 6th.

Now, they've been writing these pieces about how the sport is dying for so many years, I can't even keep them.

They've been doing it since I was a kid.

And look, it has dropped in attendance a little bit.

Now, you look at last year, obviously, it was a COVID year.

I mean, some of these parks weren't even open at the beginning of the year.

So it was down last year.

But, I mean, you know, their numbers are fine.

If you can't build a business around 68 million people in the parks in 2019, 68 million.

You can't build a bit.

You need to be nationalized.

Forget it.

Not to mention the TV and the digital deals on top of the merchandise and all the other crap that goes on.

Yes, at times these

teams spend so much money that they can get themselves into trouble.

And there's some issues with income inequality between the Los Angeles Dodgers and every other team in the league.

But still, there's no reason.

There's not even an argument that it would fail, let alone be nationalized.

It's completely ridiculous.

I find it interesting that he says the average age of people watching it on TV is 57.

What's the average person of people that are watching TV?

Right.

I mean, the cable news average audience is like 72.

Right.

Three.

Yeah, but they would think about nationalizing that.

They would probably nationalize that.

But I mean, again.

Yeah, you're right.

The TV average age is...

I mean, people are really watching digital.

And then they shudder to think what it is on radio.

Well, most likely it's on AM radio.

And unless you're a conservative, you don't even know

what AM radio even means.

Yeah, there's just, there's just AM radio.

There's news talk radio and sports radio.

Yeah, that's it.

That's all AM

is.

So, I mean, this is just, you know, this is nonsense.

This is like basically the, we're going to have 700 million people get displaced by global warming next year.

Like, it's like one of those type of pieces.

I don't want to be,

like, there's people that are

posting on Instagram and Facebook and stuff, my apology to George Soros.

Yes.

Last April Fools.

Okay.

And they're like, blood back sold out.

He apologized.

I called him.

I have sincerely apologized to Mr.

Pepperoni Eyes.

Does that sound like a sincere apology?

For the love of Pete, people are so stupid.

But

I don't want to be one of those people.

When I I read this, I'm like,

I don't know anymore.

I don't know anymore.

I don't know.

Is this guy serious or not?

Does he really?

It's probably, I guess it's serious.

The only reason I think it's serious is because this type of piece has been written for a long time, minus the nationalization.

That's a new wrinkle.

Like,

baseball's going to fail.

It's not our national pastime anymore.

It's well behind football and basketball now.

And there's truth to some of that for sure.

I mean, certainly football is the number one sport.

But still, this is a pretty freaking healthy business.

Hang on.

Maybe

he's being sarcastic and he's actually writing a pro-baseball piece.

Okay.

Saying, oh, you know, yeah, it's so bad.

It's horrible.

It's horrible.

Maybe we should naturalize.

We got to get him on the phone.

And if he doesn't come on the show,

we know.

All right.

The Glenback Program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glenback Program.

Tomorrow is Friday.

Thank God.

Wow, you should coin that phrase.

Like,

Friday.

Maybe initials, like a T

maybe

T G I

F Rife.

Oh.

Today, that's catchy.

T.

Yes.

It's Friday, thank God, tomorrow.

Something like that.

We should work on that.

By the way, you never let me finish my preparation test.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I don't know why.

Are you trying to get me killed?

Yeah, so at Glenbeck.com, we have this test that you can take and you answer five questions and it shows how prepared you are for, you know, the coming apocalypse.

Okay.

So we were, I think, at question five.

Do we have it?

We were at question five.

Yes.

But you don't have it.

But I can't.

Yeah.

Well, I clicked on the

answer already.

And now I've passed it.

I will do everything for you.

Okay.

You were supposed to do this.

This was your.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

I know.

I'll do it for you, Stu.

Don't worry.

You just did, I mean, like, you're just the way you manage the show is so incredible.

What self-defense equipment do you have?

Yeah, we did that one.

You have rocks.

No, I.

What plans have you made?

None.

You read the news, see government alerts, but you haven't put any energy towards preparing yourself.

Right.

Are you really on the bottom?

No, I think

you've talked with your household about what we would do if scenarios such as fire, flood, power outage.

You have physical copies of key documents, birth certificates, passport, car registration.

I can clear that one.

Okay.

You have a plan covering several specific scenarios.

Blizzard, terrorist attacks.

Your home knows what to do and whom to contact if there's an emergency.

All right.

So you're at two.

Yeah.

I'm at.

You have the plans and capability to defend your household against marauders.

Up to a platoon-sized foreign UN troops.

No, I don't know about that.

You have the ability to generate an income in a scenario through selling food, equipment, services.

Yeah,

I'm going to be a hooker.

You have the spiritual and philosophical basis to make morally correct decisions for yourself.

Well, no, I'm planning on the family being hookers, so I'd have to go down to the other one.

Okay, so now, what are your results?

So

I'm an average Joe,

according to your Glennbeck.com

tilted poll.

I say, I'm prepared to handle small regional issues or a minor disruption in services, such as a power outage for a few days due to an ice storm or earthquake.

I'll be in trouble after a few days of an emergency situation, or if you're forced to leave home.

This is how most Americans actually live their lives.

Wow, I'm popular for once.

Yeah.

Homer Simpson.

You're the average Joe.

Hey, don't take it.

No, I think that's a little understated.

I think I could last certainly more than a few days.

That would not be a problem.

That's good.

Good for you.

Well, instead of a few days.

I think a month, I'm fine.

After that, I'm toast.

Like, this is when, after a month, I just found my way into Glenn's guest house.

I'm just like, mine, you know, here's, this is surprising.

You would say it, because mine says you're a warrior.

You're ready for anything.

End of days, rapture, second coming, global thermonuclear war, eruption of the Yellowstone cauldron, you name it.

The biggest thing you have to worry about is maintaining your moral compass during trying times.

You will also eat stew.

Well, that's it.

I hope it's S-T-E-W-U.

No, it's strangely

S-T-U.

So, I mean, if you're very well prepared, I don't know why you'd have to result in cannibalized.

Yeah.

Because you are marbled.

When we first started the show, I think I was just the soy sauce guy.

Like, I was living in an apartment.

I remember it.

I had soy sauce and duck sauce and maybe like, like, you know, a six pack of soda.

And that was pretty much what I had in the house.

Now with two kids,

I've gone to two days worth of soy sauce.

I've doubled the soy sauce storage.

I've got a soy sauce garage.

Yeah.

But, you know, I've gone to my Patriot supply.

I've gotten a basic

food supply.

But again, anything beyond, like, I can get through rational things.

Like, for example, I never would have expected what we saw in for six weeks in 2020.

Yeah, the storm here.

No, I was going to say the pandemic.

You know, it was six weeks.

Slow the spread for six weeks.

We're all at home.

Now, you may be in a blue state, and it lasted a lot longer than six weeks.

But for us, it was six weeks.

Now, you could still go to grocery stores, and all that was still there.

But like, six weeks was an unimaginable interruption in my

normalcy biased world, right?

Like, and you know, could never happen.

Could never happen.

I would have said it could never happen.

In fact, I probably said in February of 2020, look at these Italians.

They're locking the whole state.

What a bunch of weirdos.

They're locking the whole country.

That'll never.

That'll never happen here.

Two days later.

They're shutting down leagues.

You can't leave the house.

But like, I think there's an element you can prepare for, and there is probably

going to the zombie apocalypse level, which is like you've got everything covered, but it'll be the one thing you forgot.

Oh, no, it'll be like, you know, you have farmland, you have fertilizer, surgery kit, you know, surgery kit, you got it all, and then you're standing there in the field and you're like, oh, seeds,

I forgot seeds.

I swear to you, that's gonna happen to me.

Oh, calm down, honey.

Have a glass of water.

Oh, water!

Grab!

Grab!

This is the Glenn Back program.
