How to Prepare for the End of the World | Guests: Adam Curry & Rob Eno | 3/11/22

Charlie Sheen is an icon of decadence.

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

He's going the distance.

He was the highest paid TV star of all time.

When it started to change, it was quick.

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

Now, Charlie's sober.

He's gonna tell you the truth.

How do I present this with any class?

I think we're past that, Charlie.

We're past that, yeah.

Somebody call action.

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

Your health belongs to you, and so does the responsibility of taking care of it.

We have learned over the last couple of years that,

yeah, government, pharmaceuticals, everything else, I'm not sure they really have your best interest at mind.

You can take care of yourself by making sure that you have a strong immune system.

Z-Stack is something that's new.

It's a specially formulated, natural immune-boosting supplement.

It was put together by world-renowned

Dr.

Vladimir

Zelenko.

He is a guy who studied COVID and everything else.

This was originally for COVID, but it works for the flu and everything else.

Just boost your immune system.

Got no room to compromise.

We gotta stand together if the corners survive.

Stand up straight and hold

Hello, America.

It's Friday.

Welcome.

We're glad you're here.

Today, we're going to talk about the biggest stories of the week, give you some extra perspective on it.

Also,

I have something that you can help me with, something that

we can help each other with on ESG scores.

I'll explain here in just a second.

And we're going to spend some time

on

Kamala Harris, who is, I mean, she is the truly,

yeah, she is.

She was remarkable yesterday with the Polish president.

Yeah.

Veep thoughts

by Kamala Harris coming up.

Patrick wrote in about his experience with Relief Factory.

He says, Glenn, I want you to know I got really great results.

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

I'm almost three months into Relief Factor and I hardly even think about my knees anymore.

What a miracle that is, huh?

It worked for me.

I'll be 67 this month.

Thank you so much for Relief Factor.

And now,

Veep Thoughts by Kamala Harris.

So Ukraine is a country in Europe.

It exists next to another country called Russia.

Russia is a bigger country.

Russia is a powerful country.

Russia decided decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine.

So basically that's wrong.

This has been Veep Thoughts by Kamala Harris.

Don't you feel better?

Seriously.

Oh my gosh.

I'm going to play what happened yesterday in Poland.

It is so embarrassing.

It was so bad that the former advisor Tuz Zelensky, okay, the guy who is saying to us right now, please help our our country.

Please, I'll French kiss anyone or not if it helps.

I'll sleep with anyone or not if it helps.

Just help us.

The former advisor went, God help the world if that woman is ever president.

This is an embarrassment.

Yeah, it was that bad.

We'll share that with you here in just a second.

First,

I have.

I have something I need your help with.

Now, I have been traveling around the country and I've been talking to Republicans.

I'll talk to Democrats, Independents, anyone who will listen in the state houses.

And I have been, I'm not by myself.

Other foundations are coming with the people who actually know the law, think tanks, Heritage Foundation, stuff like that, Heartland Institute, people who actually do these things and write bills.

And they've been working on anti-ESG bills now since 2020.

And so I'm looking for states that are looking to stand, looking to understand what is happening right now and what is happening in Russia with

all of these banks and McDonald's and the Kentucky Fried Colonel, everybody standing up going, I'm just not going to do it anymore.

I'm just not going to.

do it.

I can't.

It's morally wrong to do business with you when you know they're all lying.

Okay, Okay, this is put a black box on your Instagram feed.

That's all this is.

And they're getting massive pressure to

not do business with Russia.

Well, this is the introduction to ESG, and that is going to happen to you.

If they can do it to Vladimir Putin,

who has his own country,

billions and billions of dollars,

and a country full of nukes.

You think they'll hesitate to do it to you or to your state or your business?

No, I don't think so.

So ESG has got to be stopped.

So I went up to Idaho.

I'm a part-time resident of Idaho.

I love Idaho.

And I thought, these guys get it.

These guys get it.

And, you know, when I was up there, they did.

They did get it.

They got it.

And they were like, yeah, you're right.

Let's go.

We're going to make the toughest ESG state.

We're going to lead the way.

Uh-huh.

Good.

Good.

Thank you.

And then

the banking lobbyist showed up.

Now, there was supposed to be,

this can't even get out of committee at this point, the House Business Committee, and I'm talking about Idaho,

but I will be talking about other states soon.

The House Business Committee

is the second most conservative committee in the state, okay?

There's only two Democrats.

And when I say conservative, I guess I shouldn't confuse that with Republican.

Because

there are some Republicans who are now having second thoughts after talking to the banking community.

And the treasurer, the state treasurer, who I think is running to be the lieutenant governor of the great state of Idaho, she's decided, I think this, we can't, I mean, ESG, I don't think we can pass these bills.

I don't think we can pull our state money out of places like BlackRock who are saying

don't don't support timber

and lumber industries.

All of the thing, let's come down hard on our farmers.

Oh my gosh, you state treasurer, what is your name again?

She's wonderful.

She's wonderful.

She is.

Julie Ellsworth, the Idaho State Treasurer.

Julie Ellsworth.

Remember that name when she, oh, has she announced yet she's running for a lieutenant?

i hope i haven't blown something julie but she's against this and i think every farmer everybody who loves freedom i think they should remember as they go to the polls julie ellsworth's name and know she was against uh anything that would stop ESG

There's a few others that I would like to name here.

First of all, let me start with the good guys.

Representative Barbara Barbara Ehart, she has been remarkable.

She's not even on this committee, but she's been the one that has really been leading.

There's a few of them.

And

I just want to mention just two other people that are really great.

Representative gay and

DeMorda

and also the chairman, Sage

Dixon.

These guys have, they've reached out.

Help, help, help.

They only need 12 votes to get it out of committee.

12.

They're about three shy.

And they're Republicans.

So Brent Crane, who, you know, just, I don't know if the language is right.

I'm not sure.

You know,

maybe we could compromise with the banks.

Yeah, his name is Representative Brent Crane.

He was the one who said, we should just postpone this.

Well, I got news for you, Brent.

Next year,

you may have a new digital currency, and I guarantee you, ESG will be the only thing anyone is talking about in your state.

Because,

well, the word slave comes to mind.

Now,

a lot of these people, like Joe Palmer,

we were hoping that he, but he follows, you know, Crane.

Yes, sir, yet, sir.

What do we do?

Randy Armstrong

also is

likely against the bill.

Brandon Mitchell, likely against the bill.

Cody Galloway, likely against the bill.

Here's what I would love you to do.

I would love, if you happen to live in Idaho and care about this little crazy thing called

freedom,

that you would call

and talk to these people.

Call everyone who is on the committee.

This is the business committee.

There's 18 members.

I'd like you to call them and fill their

phone box, their messages.

Fill it to the brim.

They canceled the meeting today.

And then they're going to maybe meet Tuesday.

If this isn't done, this is, by the way, the easiest one.

This is the one that just says, hey, our state isn't going to take our state pensions and invest it into companies that are trying to destroy the businesses in our state.

So, this is the easy one.

The real hard one is next.

If you don't pass this one, you're done.

You're done.

Done.

I mean, I bet on Idaho.

I have a ranch up in Idaho, and I bet on Idaho standing.

Guess whose ranch might be up for sale?

This is craziness, craziness.

And the reason why it's happening, and it almost happened in Wyoming,

every time now, the banks are all over this, the big banks.

And the big banks are coming in with their lobbyists and they're saying, you can't do this.

You can't do this.

This is the future.

This is the way to go.

I mean, this is crazy conspiracy theory stuff.

Really?

Is it conspiracy theory?

Is that like Goldman Sachs just left

Russia?

Goldman Sachs just said, no more business with Russia.

And Deutsch Bank came out today and said, we don't think we can get out of business with Russia because it would be bad for our business.

Start the clock.

How long will it be before Deutsch Bank suddenly says, you know what?

I think the reputational risk is just too great.

By the way, let me show you how this works.

It already, already is starting to affect your French fries at McDonald's.

How?

Well, because McDonald's has signed on to ESG.

McDonald's has just pulled out of Russia.

So McDonald's is part of this.

Now, if they're part of that, remember, they can't buy anything that isn't ESG approved.

So if you're a farmer and, gee, what could possibly affect Idaho?

Potatoes.

You grow potatoes and you're not all in with ESG,

you can't sell your potatoes to the middleman who then takes those potatoes, makes them in the fries, and sells them to McDonald's.

Don't believe me, ask anyone who sells potatoes to McDonald's.

Ask, ask them.

That's how this works.

And politicians that are too blind to see it,

this is truly a last call for freedom and the Western way of life.

This is the end of the free market.

No, it's not.

I can't tell companies what they can do or not do.

Are you kidding me?

This is the mob.

What do you think?

McDonald's all of a sudden decided, I'm going to close all my restaurants.

No, they said they felt they had to do it because of reputational risk.

That's ESG language.

If you have reputational risk, well, the banks can't make McDonald's any more loans.

You know, the insurance companies are like, I don't know if I can insure your business now because, I mean, you have a reputational risk.

That's the mob.

That's the mob.

That's not the free market.

Who is going to stand for the free market?

If we don't get states to stand up and you can't be alone in it,

we've got 20 states, 20 that are now considering or have passed legislation.

It must pass.

This is it, guys.

This is it.

This is the end of the road.

The next thing that happens is digital currency, and you are a slave.

When you have ESG and digital currency, you might as well have the mark of the beast.

These people are either running for a bigger office or they are looking for the money from the big banks and the big donors so they can run again

or they are honestly misguided.

And I believe there are some that are honestly misguided.

They don't know.

But what needs to happen is this come out of committee so that it has to take a floor vote.

So you know who the good guys are and who the bad guys are.

If they won't stand now,

you can't trust them to stand for anything

if they won't stand now you need to know who they are they've got to pet put their name for or against so you know who they are because you cannot trust any politician that is not on ESG like white on rice

You can't trust them if they are listening to the banks.

Well, I called some of my banking friends.

Oh, really?

And what did they say?

Well, I talked to some of the biggest bankers in the world.

Uh-huh.

Have you talked to the local banks?

Because I know for a fact, local banks all over the country are going to their legislators and saying, please pass this anti-ESG.

We cannot stand up.

We can't.

We can't say these things out loud or we're dead.

Please pass this, or we're all dead.

That's what's really going on.

Idaho, you need to call every single person you can.

Call them.

Tie up the phones for the next three days.

Send a very clear message to these people.

And I want you to know I will volunteer my time in any state in the Union to A, come, talk, praise, but I also will do everything in my power to make sure that those people who don't stand against ESG, I'm sorry, that do, yeah, wait, wait, hang on just a minute, let me share how this threat is

exactly, yes, that those who will stand against legislation now to stop ESG,

it is not a threat, it is a promise.

I will do everything I can to make sure that every person in America who is actually a conservative

knows your name and knows you cannot trust this person to stand when it counts.

They don't understand the free market or they won't take the time to actually understand what ESG is when it's practically in neon signs now.

This is not 2020.

This is 2022.

In 2020, it's a conspiracy theory.

Now they're telling you what it is.

Wake up.

Idaho, Kansas, Texas.

Wake up.

Idaho, call them now.

Okay,

let me tell you about the Tuttle Twins books.

Tuttle Twins books, there is nothing more important in your family right now than teaching your kids what this country means, why the free market works, because you may have to plan on the kids knowing how the free market works so they can bury it inside themselves and be able to fight for it in the future

the free market our principles our bill of rights there is an end run around all of those things and it's happening because what what is it 50 of the american people say yeah i mean freedom of speech but not really are you kidding me this is an easy way to teach your kids, the Tuttle Twins.

So things went well yesterday?

Is that the download of that

particular meeting?

They were meeting.

You know who else?

The Republicans

had a bunch of people come come and visit them.

The banking lobbyists and the insurance people.

No, you can't do this.

I mean, we won't be able to insure things.

I mean, we really can't.

Yeah, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe that's why we should do it.

Maybe, maybe I'm thinking.

Because they can't insure things?

Yeah, because what happens is with ESG, if you don't have the right score from the bank,

then you're a reputational risk.

And then the insurance companies are like I don't think I can insure you because if I insure you and you have a low or you're fighting against ESG then I can't write insurance or I'm a reputational risk and I can't get loans

it is it is coercion it is fascism it's fascism

I don't know if you saw this, but

the Fed in the White House came out yesterday.

Remember,

inflation.

What inflation?

Oh, inflation.

It's just transitory.

Well, I mean, it might be here for a few months.

We're not really sure when it is.

To now they're saying, you ready for this one?

It's going to get much worse.

Oh.

Okay.

Seeing you've underplayed everything, what exactly does that mean?

I want to get to the biggest stories of the week.

For me, the biggest story of the week is probably the least talked about story.

It is Joe Biden's executive order on cryptocurrency.

It is,

it's, it's an amazing executive order.

You should read it.

We must take strong steps to reduce the risks that digital assets could pose to climate change and pollution.

Climate change and pollution.

Yeah, I mean, it was a big list, but

that's on that list.

Climate change and pollution.

Apparently, apparently, not only are we worried about, you know, dark money.

I love that.

Joe Biden worried about dark money.

We only worry about dark money, people, you know, doing things that they shouldn't and not paying their taxes because they deal in Bitcoin.

We're also worried about the energy that it takes to have a decentralized currency.

And so section 5 of the executive order, measures to protect consumers, investors, and businesses, includes a subsection telling the director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy to lead work on an interagency report examining climate and energy concerns around cryptocurrency.

Now here's what's great.

I, you know, who doesn't know the head of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, right?

I mean, we all say, say it with me, it's

Alondra Nelson.

Landra Nelson.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

We all know it.

We all know it.

You know,

she is a social science professor

from Columbia, the Institute of Advanced Studies with a doctorate in American studies.

And she also, and this is such a crazy coincidence, she is also

a member of the World Economic Forum

network.

That's great.

Isn't that great?

So she's connected to all those people that trust each other.

You know, that's good to hear.

So

her office is to put together a group to consider the potential for these technologies to impede or advance efforts to tackle climate change at home and abroad and the effect of cryptocurrencies' consensus mechanisms on energy uses.

Now, here's the thing.

The problem with cryptocurrency is, well, data mining.

I mean, the mining for the

Bitcoin is just, I mean, it's taking so much energy.

By the way, there'll be no more mining after 2030.

So good luck on making that case.

But

because it's decentralized, it requires so much power to be able to verify, does this person have these funds?

Is this person really where it's supposed to go?

All the verifications that have to happen all over the world because it's decentralized.

A lot of power.

Yeah, not when you, first of all, not when you compare it to other giant financial systems, which is what this is, right?

I mean, how much do you, how much is gold mining cost to the environment?

How much does

precious metal mining overall?

How much does the global financial system and banking cost?

You know what?

I got to tell you, I'd be surprised.

We don't have rolling brownouts on the East Coast just to keep the printing presses going at the Treasury.

Exactly.

And then, of course, we should also point out that these

environmental concerns are nonsense.

It's ridiculous.

How dare you say that?

You won't be able to say that in six months.

I'll tell you that right now.

Oh, yeah?

Literally.

The executive order also instructs the Secretary of Treasury, Janet Yellen, to lead the development of a report on the future of money and payment systems.

It requests a report from the chairman of the Federal Reserve addressing whether a central bank digital currency could make the monetary system more efficient.

Oh, I bet.

And could be used as a critical stabilization tool.

Yes, now in the end, do you understand?

This is something the Empire must have to stabilize our currency.

To stabilize it, we've got bad inflation coming out.

Oh my gosh, they just said that.

That's weird because that's not what the White House has been saying.

But now they're saying, oh, it's really bad inflation.

Wow.

And you know what will cure that?

Modern monetary theory.

Yeah, but we're never going to do that.

Oh, no, wait.

We're doing the first part of that.

Printing all of the money, just sending money out the door.

Yeah, but that's causing inflation.

Yeah, but you know what would

fix that?

A digital currency.

Wow.

So it really is a critical stabilization tool.

Yeah.

And it'll save energy because it will be on a central computer with a password.

So you got that coming for you.

You know, the only thing this doesn't have in it is maybe a chip that we put into our forehead or our

hand.

On that,

it's great.

This is a way to completely control absolutely every human being on earth.

And it is coming.

And

I think there's a chance it comes before the election.

But I do believe it will come before Congress is reseated if they should lose Congress.

They have this idea.

You know what?

I'm putting this executive order.

We should study it.

They've already studied it.

Go to treasury.gov.

Go to the Federal Reserve.

Read the white papers.

They are already doing work with MIT on what's called the Hamilton Project.

By the way, Hamilton, great musical.

Also, an evil SOP that wanted a central bank.

And all of the other founders are like, no, I think that's a bad idea.

So the Hamilton Project, look it up.

The Boston Fed and MIT.

They're not doing a study.

They're not doing a study.

This is just to prepare the ground, till the soil.

Wow, we're thinking about, huh, high inflation, and what could stabilize that?

Well,

Fed's been out of bullets for a while.

You know what would stabilize that?

One bank,

the Federal Reserve, and we could open up accounts at the Federal Reserve and we'll put money, free money.

Gosh, that...

That would be really helpful, especially when food prices are out of control and jobs are hard to get and you can't buy any freaking fertilizer.

That's, you know what, that'd be so helpful.

People will need that extra money.

We'll just put it there in the Fed bank and you can come and claim it.

And then move all your

regular currency and we'll give you maybe 60 cents on a dollar this month.

And if you don't do it, then, you know, a couple of months later,

you'll only get 40 cents on the dollar.

That's assuming it's not redistributing wealth, which Janet Yellen in a white paper on the treasury says that's what's going to happen.

So if you're white and rich, you're going to get less than 60 cents.

But if you're a hermaphrodite with a leg growing out of your eye, you're in a special class.

You might get $1.25 for every dollar you have.

But I digress.

It is so fantastic.

And that is the story of the week.

Okay.

Hi, Stu.

Hi.

How about we change the subject and go to Poland?

So you go from

really bad news to really bad news?

No, this is great news.

We sent to meet with Poland.

Okay.

The ally we're hoping is going to stand up and go,

you know, if Russia starts to make a move, we're going to fight him in the streets.

We sent over Kamala Harris.

Let me give you just one of the super, super highlights here.

She was asked about

the refugee problem.

And you know how tragic that is, especially if you're over in Poland.

Not a laughing matter.

And she knows it.

Here it is.

Is the United States willing to make a specific allocation for Ukrainian refugees?

And for President Duda, I wanted to know if you think and if you asked the United States to specifically accept more refugees.

The President looks at her.

A friend in need is a friend indeed.

I'll go first.

I'll go first.

What?

I don't know how to answer.

Okay, so this is not going well.

This is not going over well.

Yeah, people didn't think that that was very respectful when you're talking about refugees and people dying.

She clearly didn't have an answer, so she just laughs.

You go first.

A friend in need is a friend indeed.

What does that even like?

Why?

That means

I need you.

I need you.

You be my friend.

Be my friend.

You go first.

Either that or it's either that, or it's some sort of weird,

hey, we're going to be your friend.

We're, you're in need, we're, we're going to be a friend indeed with the refugees.

I don't know.

I feel like she has multiple conversations going on in her head.

Like, there's a totally different reality there, and she's responding to things that no one else sees.

I don't even know.

Thank you, Common.

This is, you know what?

If I may, if I may, I think this is appropriate.

Now, some may think,

Glenn that's not commercial.

You shouldn't do that.

But

I think we're in desperate times.

So if I may.

Dear Lord,

please.

Please protect Joe Biden.

I know, I know, I know, I know.

Please.

He's old, he's sickly, he's losing his mind.

You know that better than I do.

But please, Lord,

even if he's a dictator for a hundred years past, I don't know.

Keep him alive

so we don't have to have Kamala Harris as our president.

Amen.

Hey.

It's hard not to feel that way.

It's hard not to feel that way.

I question you as a human if you don't feel that way.

But I mean, you can't, how much better is Biden?

It's not like he's doing a good job in in comparison.

And, you know, it's, of course, we want him to be able to do that.

Can you imagine her healthy healthy?

But I don't think either one is a good choice.

All right.

She's up on Air Force One.

Yeah.

Okay.

DEF CON one.

She's got to turn the key.

Right.

Okay.

And they say, Mr.

President, turn your key.

Will you give approval to this?

And he, and she goes,

looking around.

Good heavens.

I mean, at least Joe Biden at that point and something that critical would have the wherewithal to go,

I disagree.

I think he would probably drool on the nuclear football and disarm it.

Wow, are we screwed?

Hey.

Aren't you glad we're back to normalcy?

Seriously, I am so proud of everybody who has who looked at those two candidates and went, that guy tweets a lot, and I don't like the way he talks.

I don't like it.

I don't like it.

Sure, things seem to be going really well, but I don't like his Twitter behavior.

These guys are going to bring back things normal times.

They're going to restore sanity.

Thank you for that.

My children and my children's children.

Thank you for that.

Biltbar is our sponsor this half hour.

You know, some days you wake up in the morning, you stare at the ceiling for a little bit and you think, I'm not going to even bother getting up.

I'm just going to lie here in bed all day.

See how many hours I can actually sleep.

I used to be a champion sleeper.

When I was a teenager, I could sleep all day and all night.

Now not so much, not so much.

I think I'm going to rack up some Z's here before people start yelling at me.

Dad!

Anyway,

just when I'm starting to fall back to sleep, I remember there are built bars waiting for me, covered in chocolate.

I'm like, sleep, chocolate, sleep, chocolate, sleep, chocolate.

Chocolate.

It gets me out of bed.

Yeah.

If you are looking for a treat that will help you, you know, maybe shed a few LBs or just they're good for you, this is a candy bar.

I know, it's a protein bar.

It's healthy for you.

It's a candy bar made with real chocolate.

And if you haven't tried their puffs yet, you must.

Puffs are the first ever protein-infused marshmallows.

They're fluffy, delightful.

And like all Bilt bars, they're covered in 100% real chocolate.

Oompa Loompas couldn't have made this stuff.

The Glenn Beck program.

Hey, Stu.

Yes,

you're an electrifying individual.

Thank you so much.

Let me ask you a question.

We don't have the power for

money exchange on Bitcoin.

I mean, we do, but they say we don't.

They say it's a bad idea.

It hurts the environment.

But the people who are saying that

are also building electric cars.

Oh, demanding that we use electric cars.

Yeah.

So we don't have enough money for verification or electricity for verification of Bitcoin, but we can put the entire globe on an electric car standard.

This, you might detect, is a bonkers.

It's a bonkers series of points that you can make.

You can't make together.

They don't work together.

You can't say we need a zillion electric cars

and say that Bitcoin is the thing that's hurting the environment.

I will also note that electric cars, unless you drive them a couple of hundred thousand miles, don't wind up being any better for the environment than gas-powered cars anyway, when you take in their construction.

And I will also note that Bitcoin is running at between two and four times the percentage of renewables as the electric grid as a whole.

So,

and of course that makes sense.

The whole point of Bitcoin mining is to make sure you have the cheapest electricity possible.

So they build mining facilities at things like

hydroelectric plants to get the runoff energy, the burned-off excess gas that normally would just go into the atmosphere instead turns into Bitcoin mining.

Well maybe we're using all of that for cars.

Maybe we can only have digital currency or cars, but we can't have both.

We should also point out that the people arguing for the electric cars and against Bitcoin are also arguing against nuclear power.

And that does not apply to Elon Musk, but it does apply to almost everyone else making this argument.

You know what I have to say?

Come on.

Maybe that's what's wrong with Kamala.

She tried to understand this and went nuts.

She turned it into like the joke.

She went nuts.

American Financing is our sponsor.

I would like you to give them a call today if you haven't already.

In 10 minutes, you can be well on your way to new levels of financial freedom.

Financing

is going to get harder and harder to get, especially if you're kind of like me.

Financial freedom is imperative.

So we got to pay down our debts, get the lowest interest rate we can.

You can explore all types of loans, and American Financing will shoot straight with you.

No pressure, no upfront, or hidden fees.

And it could end up helping you save hundreds, if not a thousand dollars a month.

All right.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly is coming up next.

Anxious to hear what he believes is the biggest story of the week.

15 seconds.

Got no room to compromise.

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

Stand up straight and hold the line.

It's a new day of time to rise.

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

This

the Glenbach program.

Gas prices already the highest in U.S.

history.

The national average $4.23 a gallon tonight.

I'm going to work like the devil to bring gas prices down.

A significant reason why prices are up is because of COVID affecting the supply chain.

He's going to do everything we can, everything he can, to reduce the impact on the American people, including the price of gas at the tank.

Gas supply companies are paying less and making a lot more.

He's suggesting that the industry's outsized profits and returns to shareholders are to blame for what he calls an unexplained gap as consumer prices rise.

Take a look at oil prices.

That is a consequence of,

thus far, the refusal of

Russia or

the OPEC nations to pump more oil.

And that's because of the supply being withheld by OPEC.

The increase and the anticipated continued increase, which is I think what some of your colleagues were asking about, that that is a direct result of the invasion of Ukraine.

Can't do much right now.

Russia's responsible.

Wow.

Wow, that's a complex problem there.

I don't know who to blame, but we've got Putin.

It's Friday.

Gas prices, inflation, war,

possibly chemical or biological weapons.

What the heck is the biggest story this week?

Bill O'Reilly is next.

Carolyn wrote in about her experience with Relief Factory.

She said, I just wanted to say I love Relief Factor.

I'm 57.

I'm a hairstylist.

Me too.

She said, I'm a country girl.

Me too.

I stay really active.

Well, you lost me there.

But I've noticed in the past several months that I'm in pain all the time.

I heard about Relief Factor, decided to give it a try.

My pain has just completely gone away.

Thank you.

Thank you, Relief Factor.

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

About 30% of the people that try it, it doesn't work for them.

But that means 70% go on to order it month after month after month.

I take it three times a day, have for several years now.

It is fantastic.

Get the three-week quick trial.

You'll be able to know in three weeks if it's going to work or not.

Just try it out.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly, welcome to the program, sir.

What is the biggest story of the week?

Well, I think you just framed it.

I mean,

I'll take a different tack to it.

Okay.

Because that's what I always do.

Sure, sure, sure.

So when you have a President of the United States putting forth an absurd

analysis of gas prices and inflation,

there's no debate that it's not absurd.

So, if you believe that Putin's responsible for the high gas prices, all of it, and inflation in the United States, then you're just a moron or you're dishonest.

That's it.

Okay?

So, you then to a president who's selling something that's just illogical.

And when you do that, then your credibility on other matters goes down, is diminished.

And that's what's happening.

So 80%,

according to the latest polling, they

want more drilling in America, 80% of Americans.

Now that encompasses liberals, it encompasses everybody everybody but the loons.

20% are climate change loons.

They want to go back and they want to live off the land, you know, off the grid, whatever.

But 80% say, look, it's time to stop this theoretical stuff and get the economy back on track by harvesting as much fossil fuel as we can in a responsible way.

Would you agree that that's what most people want?

Yeah, I think so.

Okay, all right.

I think, honestly,

even those people who do believe vehemently in climate change, but are not lunatics,

would accept the president coming out today and saying, look,

just for the next 12 months or whatever, I'm going to temporarily open up the fields,

grant new permits, and encourage the banks to loan money to these people.

But look, all you have to do is open up the Anwar stuff in Alaska.

Yeah.

That's all.

I mean, what are we going to frighten the caribou up there?

Are the the polar bears upset?

Oh, my God.

They like the pipelines.

It's warm there.

They don't have to buy coats.

Okay?

This is just insane.

I mean, there are some political things that are just insane.

And here's one of them.

So Biden, as we all know, doesn't know.

what he's actually saying.

He can't go A to B to C to D anymore.

That's called linear thinking.

That's over for Biden.

It probably was over 10 years ago.

He doesn't know the cause and effect.

If I say something, what is going to be the effect of it?

He can't do that anymore.

He's not intellectually capable of it.

So instead, he just reads stuff off a paper, and then Saki, the minister of propaganda, just spits it out every day with the press.

And the press, instead of really being furious about this and say, that's just insane,

Putin,

gas prices were up a buck a gallon gallon before Putin did anything there.

What about that?

You know, you don't hear that kind of questioning because the corporate media wants Biden to succeed.

That's what they want.

But here's the extension that I'm worried about.

So, once you have an administration, and Nixon is the best example in recent history of this, where nobody believes you anymore, all right?

So, then when a thing like the bio lab story appears,

okay,

and the Pentagon denies it,

and the Biden administration says, no, we're not harvesting bioweapons in Ukraine, and think about that.

How insane would that be?

All right.

I know.

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

But wait, hold it just a second.

How insane would it be to do everything else that this administration has done in 12 months?

It extends far back.

Right, to Obama.

Start, yeah.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

And Trump.

Right.

And see, I don't believe the story at this point.

I don't believe it.

Good for you.

Okay.

I am leaning towards believing it because of Wuhan, but I'm not sure.

All right, well, I'll get Wuhan in my analysis.

Yeah, okay.

I don't believe it because it makes no sense at all.

If you want to do bioweapon research, you don't do it in Ukraine.

You don't do it in Wuhan.

Okay, stop with the Wuhan.

All right, well, I just.

But stay on the bio-weapon.

All right.

Okay.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You don't do it there.

That's insane.

All right.

No one would do that.

All right.

So that's.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

May I just say, hang on.

You would if you wanted to do things

and

skate around some of the international laws.

But you wouldn't do it in Ukraine.

I wouldn't.

You wouldn't.

But when has anybody proven themselves to be sane?

That isn't a...

Oh, stop.

That's like doing...

Okay, we're going to do bio-research in Syria.

Come on.

So maybe there's a one in ten chance that I'm wrong.

One in ten.

But conspiracy sells.

It sells in America.

There are maybe 30% of the population that live their lives in conspiracies.

Okay, so wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

So do you believe that the United States wasn't involved, but that there are biological weapons or weapons or

biological things that they're worried about?

Beck, according to Jennifer Griffin, who's the best reporter on this stuff, the most honest and the best.

Okay.

Okay.

Yeah.

Known the woman for almost 30 years.

Got it.

Doesn't lie.

Got it.

Okay.

She says that the lab in question

was designed to clean up

weaponry left by the Soviet Union when it left Ukraine.

That's what that lab is there to do.

That there were hot spots, as there are in the United States, of contamination, and that the United States helped in that effort to clean up

the stuff that was left.

That's what Jennifer Griffin is reporting.

Wow.

Okay.

So from like 2008 until today, we've got a mop.

And you know what?

I could be wrong.

Maybe it was a union member.

Maybe it was unions that were doing the work and they're like, I'm on break.

All right.

We're not going to have this money.

But from

2005 onward, and that would be 17 years, the United States has contributed something to the cleanup of this environment, according to Jennifer Griffin.

And she gets her information directly from the Pentagon.

Okay.

Wow.

That sounds logical to me.

Now, maybe the Pentagon's lying, Beck.

Maybe they're making zombies there.

I don't know.

I don't think they're making zombies, although I wouldn't put it past them.

But I don't think the Pentagon is a real credible source anymore.

All right, but I mean, look, what are you going to do?

No, I know, I know.

That's why I'm saying.

If Sidon's not a credible source and no one's a credible source,

then everything becomes a conspiracy.

Nothing is to be believed.

Well, nothing is to be believed, but not everything is a conspiracy.

But yes.

No, but you can weave it into.

Look, you and I know as well.

You and I are arguing about some.

How much money there is in this conspiracy?

There is

tons of millions of dollars.

I was on CNN

in, what, 2006, talking about how, you know, that there are, I think it was 7% of people believe that we didn't land on the moon.

And I said, as we go forward, as we go forward and institutions become less trustworthy, you're going to see a time in your lifetime where maybe 25% say we never went to the moon.

Now you're on, now you're cooking, Beck.

Now you're absolutely cooking because that is what has happened under Biden.

He has undermined

any kind of credibility for the federal government.

Elections, anything is undermined now.

There is so much suspicion in this country.

But my job is to try to get to the truth.

I don't know the truth about the bio-weapon.

All right.

Okay.

All right.

So I agree with you.

I don't know the truth about it either.

However, I do know this.

Wuhan, or you want to go somewhere else?

I want to go to Wuhan in a second.

But first, before we leave this, both the United States and Russia say that they're concerned about a bioweapon being used used in Ukraine.

Right.

So, and they're saying it a lot.

Is that just fear-mongering?

Is that what?

No, no.

Saddam used the bioweapon in Syria.

It's not fear-mongering.

Putin could do that in 30 minutes.

Absolutely do it.

What is the response from

the West if he would, if a weapon, like a biological weapon?

What it was, and how it was used, and what the documentation was.

Is that lead to World War III?

Okay, it didn't in Syria.

Obama drew the red line and then didn't do anything.

Yeah, but it's not Syria.

This is NATO.

This is bigger.

Okay.

So I can't predict with any kind of responsibility what the NATO response would be.

And anybody who's doing that is a fool.

However,

if Putin does use

bioweapons, and that's provable, you can prove that he did,

then

I would assume the world will go on a war footing.

All right?

That would lead to a conflict with Russia.

Don't know if nukes would be involved,

you know, but you can't allow that.

So economic sanctions, then I don't know what more they can do.

They've taken away the Big Mac, and that was the big thing they had.

Yeah, I didn't think they'd go that far.

Right.

But I hate to speculate on this stuff, but is Putin capable of that?

Yes.

Does he need to do it?

No.

Doesn't need to do it.

Because Putin now can drive a ceasefire and take pieces of Ukraine that he wants, and nobody's going to stop him from doing that.

Now, he won't get away with it because sanctions won't be lifted.

You will never take away my book of the chicken.

That will never happen.

All right.

So, Bill, hang on.

I want to go to Ukraine here in just a second.

First, let me tell you about the gold line.

You know who has lots of gold, who's been buying gold like crazy?

Russians.

We are not such dummies.

We've been putting all kinds of dollars, we've been selling a worthless U.S.

dollar and been putting it in gold.

You know who else has done that?

China, China, China.

Gee, it seems like

these guys

have figured something out about what might be coming to the U.S.

dollar.

No, don't pay any attention to men on radio, all propaganda.

May I suggest you call Goldline now

and you ask them why I buy gold, how I buy gold from them.

I've done commercials for them.

I was a client of theirs before they were a client of mine.

Okay.

I was buying gold from them before they came on radio.

I believe in them.

They've been in business for 60 years.

Right now, Goldline has a special promotion that includes free silver, free silver one-ounce Indian replica with every box of 20 of the historic Indian gold coins.

You'll receive 10 of the silver replicas for free.

Tough to find with the silver shortages.

Yes, but nothing like nickel.

Man,

if I would have, if I had a nickel for every time I wanted, I thought to myself, nickel is going to go through the roof.

I'd have a nickel.

But anyway,

right now, call them

and talk to them.

Get the information.

You're smart enough to figure it out.

866Goldline or goldline.com.

Call them now.

866Goldline.

10 seconds and back to Bill.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly, who we will crush Lake Bug.

Bill, talk to me about Wuhan now.

All right.

National Institute of Health, NIH.

Okay.

So they invest money all over the world in different countries to do research, to find out how to counter viral infections and other diseases and all that.

Okay.

Unfortunately, for some reason, They did business with China.

Don't know why.

Don't know who okayed it.

Fauci was the head of NIH.

He won't never tell you unless we get him in the basement and bring in the black ops.

All right.

So why did they do that?

They know China is a pernicious country, doesn't have any kind of standards at all.

Why would you help them research anything?

Right?

Isn't that logical?

Yeah.

Except the biggest funder of this.

The Institute of Health.

The biggest American funder was

the USAID, which is

a front for the State Department, and the Pentagon.

They put more into it than the NIH did.

But it was under the banner of health, not weaponry.

Ah.

See?

Ah.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay.

All right.

So

Shashi doesn't know what the deuce is going on over there.

Nobody knows what the deuce is going on over there because you can't know because China doesn't tell you.

And they control the Wuhan lab.

So we're putting money, not a lot of money, but the fact we put any money in it was so ridiculous.

But this is the federal government.

They make poor decision after poor decision after poor decision.

So then bang, the

COVID comes out and then the conspiracy goes, well, they made it and they released it on purpose.

The Chinese.

They made it.

They released it on purpose and we paid for it.

That's the conspiracy.

And 25% of Americans believe that.

They believe it.

Now, I don't know how COVID got out.

I suspect that they were researching COVID with bats and other animals, and the researchers got infected, just like in the movies.

It's what happens.

All right.

I agree with you 100% on that.

That's what it happened.

Yes.

And then they walked out into Wuhan, a city of 8 million people, and infected all their friends.

Yeah.

Hi, how are you?

Thank you.

Right.

Right.

That's, see, again, linear thinking.

A, B, C, D.

Yeah.

Okay.

But then the federal government, the U.S.

federal government, number one, isn't upfront about what it did.

Fauci lies about it, right?

Fauci lied about it.

So here's the thing.

Here's the thing.

To

fix all this, you'd have to pretty much clean out the hornet's nest everywhere.

everywhere in every agency.

Yeah, but you also have to clear out all of the weasels in the pipeline that are career bureaucrats.

That's impossible.

That'd be like doing that in the television industry.

There would be no television.

You'd have nothing on your screen.

I'll take no government for a while.

I'll just take no government for a while.

You can do that because you've got a place in the mountains with a bazooka.

Yeah, I'm not saying no police.

I'm not saying no police.

I mean, we get to eat the police.

I'm reimagining the police right now.

Anyway.

You're right, Bec.

You're right.

We are at a low point in this country in government credibility.

And

the lowest point.

Yeah.

The biggest problem is, Bill, is not only that, but in looking at who do I trust on Ukraine, I can't trust any single giant news outlet.

I can't.

Absolutely not.

Yeah.

And so the American people are like, I don't know.

Or they're just buying into the propaganda.

There's no reporters there.

Okay, so we don't know what's happening in the nuclear facility.

We don't know if the orphanage was blown up because there are no reporters there because the Russian army will shoot the reporters in the head.

So they aren't there.

And this is why it's a mess.

There are so many jokes to be had here, but I am not going to make any of them.

I'm a better man than that.

I have in my hands

the Idaho Association of Commerce and Industry made up board members, board members from

companies like Chobani, the, you know, the yogurt people, and Wells Fargo Bank,

and Bayer, and Monsanto,

and CliffBar, Select Health, Union Pacific Railroad.

Oh my gosh, all of these people, all of the Facebook, Facebook is on this.

What am I going to do?

They're saying in this official release that I am a conspiracy theorist because of what I tell you about ESG.

Wow.

I'm sensing

some sort of risk

here, Stu.

Some sort of...

Boy, it's...

Well, as you know, Glenn, ESG is just a risk management tool.

That's what they say.

Oh, really?

Yeah, that's what they say.

We'll get into that a little later.

Michael Malice is on with us now.

Hi, Michael.

How are you?

I mean, is it a theory if it's demonstrable and

open?

No, wait, wait, wait.

It is not.

They say

it's laughable.

They said

the given legislatures, legislators who have heard me talk about ESG and believe in, believe it.

It's a farcical conspiracy theory.

from which legislation will be crafted.

It's easy to dismiss due to its lack of basis in reality.

But the problems any kind of legislation against it will create for business is real.

Wow.

But I mean, it's just shocking how brazen the misinformation is, because at the very least, it's based in reality, but wrong, right?

You're referring to something which is policy, where there's websites about it, where people talk about it.

So to say it's not based in reality is in and of itself a lie.

Second of all, to claim that there aren't different organizations who are coordinating to further a specific agenda is, in and of itself, farcical.

The fact that all these different Shobani is working with Facebook, it's only conspiracy, but you don't like it.

Exactly right.

Exactly right.

What does the yogurt company have to do with

putting up baby pics and photos of your dog other than they have an agenda, a corporate agenda that they want to further

it is it's remarkable um how this is being uh

how this is being squashed when you can see what is happening in russia russia

this by the way uh president biden uh just said we're gonna hit pi uh uh putin even harder we have revoked our uh most favored nation status and apparently we're not the only country that is doing that now.

That's a harder punch.

But

when you have McDonald's saying, you know, we just thought there might be a reputational risk.

That's why we're closing all our restaurants.

When they said we're not closing all of our restaurants, you see ESG and how it works.

I mean, it's just, it is collusion, but it is also pressure from all of the banks and all of the other players.

You play ball or we'll shut you down.

Glenn, this is what's what's really amazing.

And this is, I kudos to you, because if this was, let's suppose, 10 years ago, they wouldn't have to address it.

And 10 years ago, you'd have been reacting maybe after the fact.

The fact that you can get ahead of this issue, that you see, and plenty of other people see the tactics that are being used to control, manipulate, and preemptively nip it in the bud, this is something that they can't handle and that really upsets them.

And this is something that curdles their yogurt.

Look at inflation is another great example, right?

It used to be it's not really happening.

Oh, it's happening, but it's not a big deal.

Well, it is happening, but it's a good thing.

Colbert, Stephen Colbert, who's a televangelist for progressivism, had his monologue saying, hey, sure, I'm paying more for gas.

but that's the price I pay to be a patriot to kind of support Ukraine.

It's like, you don't care about the problems of poor people in the slightest, and you're telling them that their suffering is virtuous and moral.

Now, in many cases, sure, you have to make sacrifices for your kid, for your family, for your country.

But you, Stephen Colbert, don't get to tell me what sacrifices I need to make.

And inflation, which everyone uses currency, inflation is a sacrifice that literally everyone has to deal with, and it hurts the poorest the most.

If Glenn Beck loses 10% of his money, you're still going to be okay.

If I'm living hand to mouth and I'm losing 10% of my money, that's food on the table.

No, that's a roof over your head.

That's the difference between living under a bridge and just barely holding it together.

I mean,

it's obscene what is happening and it is hurting.

You're exactly right.

The weakest financially among us, that's who's really paying this high, high price for everything that is going on right now.

Everything that is going on.

Michael, did you see the

digital currency executive order?

Yeah, I've heard.

I mean, I've been involved with the whole crypto space, being an anarchist for many years now.

A lot of people saw this coming down the pipe.

It's not a surprise.

What were your thoughts about it, Glenn?

Mine was that it was very, first of all, it was hysterical that we just don't have the energy.

for cryptocurrency like Bitcoin.

It just too much energy to verify everything.

We needed it centralized, one computer with a password.

Literally, one computer with a password.

So they're using energy now as

one of the reasons why they have to have it.

But the

fact that you and I both know about the Hamilton project,

we've read these white papers at treasury.gov for a couple of years.

They've been out.

And

now they're saying, hey, we've got to look into this and study it.

No, they've already studied it.

This is just tilling the ground.

And I think that they have to move before the Republicans win, you know, or at least ceded.

Well, I think it might be a little too late for them because I think what a lot of people saw.

If you saw the Canadian trucker convoy, how banks just seized assets without so much as an explanation.

If you see what's going on with Russia, if you're a Russian citizen, there's lots of things you can't do right now.

You can't use Google Play and other such apps, and they're seizing bank accounts there as well.

So that is giving people an incentive, correctly or incorrectly, to look elsewhere to keep their money secure.

And crypto, by design, is meant to be outside of the reach of any individual government.

And if your money is out of their reach,

they're really disempowered.

And that's a real big problem for them.

So they have no choice but to act.

But in my opinion, thankfully, I think that the technology is moving faster than the legislature can.

And that is going to be a mechanism for freedom for people of the world

in the near future.

And the mid-first, it's like kind of like Uber.

So in many different cities, Uber, rather than being legal, just launched the app, got everyone used to it.

And by the time the legislature got around to it, people were like, hey, you can't take Uber away.

So crypto's adaptation is a very good mechanism towards taking away the power of the Federal Reserve, which I'm sure you share my absolute contempt for.

I do.

The problem is, though, is I think they're going to tie this to, because a key word in that executive order was

stabilization, economic stabilization.

They need the Fed coin to provide economic stabilization.

Well, that's true, because you're already operating on modern monetary theory, the first part.

The second part is you have to control how that money is spent at the lowest level.

Otherwise, you'll never control control inflation.

The White House, after denying that inflation was even real or that inflation was hit me two days ago, Jen Saki said, no, inflation is going down if you look at the month and month.

No, no, Jen, not true.

But now they're saying,

yeah,

you should prepare.

Much higher inflation is coming.

I think

they're going to use that.

Are you there?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'm just saying inflation, you can't talk about inflation, stabilization of currency at the same time inflation is happening.

Inflation means an unstable currency.

It means a currency that is losing value, and it means that you can't plan financially for the future.

Because let's suppose I have a ruler, right?

If a ruler is 12 inches today and 16 inches tomorrow and 10 inches the day after that, I can't build anything.

Money is the same thing.

That dollar is supposed to be a standard of value.

If that standard of value is collapsing, I can't make these kind of long-term plans.

So this is just a lie to claim that it's for stabilization.

When they say stabilization, they mean control.

And it's kind of scary how much of the verbiage is straight out of Ayn Rand's novel Atlas Shrugged because they use words in the exact opposite of what they mean.

And they'll use whatever word they need in order to further their sense of power control.

And Glenn, I got to tell you, it really seems to me like they're losing control of the megaphone and of many other things, and they're freaking out and they don't know what to do about it.

Especially.

Well, usually what dictators do is

start hammering.

Usually dictators just shut everything down.

When they feel they're losing it,

they just start shutting things down.

And I just

I fear, I don't fear.

I feel that's where they're going.

And that's that that will that'll put a

big hitch in our get-along.

How's that for Texas?

They spent two years shutting literally everything down.

Yeah.

And now they're going the other direction.

So I agree with you that their impetus and their MO historically has been to shut things down.

But politically and culturally, things are going the opposite direction.

True.

So I think they don't know what to do.

And I don't think this president is, even if you love him, you can't regard him as a visionary or innovative thinker.

He's a party hack.

He's been a party hack since the 70s.

So you can't look to him to think of new ways of governing.

That's not the whole point was he was supposed to be returned to normalcy, meaning he's old school.

Well, that's old school is not going to work in 2020.

Yeah, but that's why we have, you know, that new young up-and-comer Kamala Harris.

You know, she's.

I love her so much.

Oh, my God.

I love her so much.

Gosh.

She's going to be the greatest president we've ever had for comedic purposes.

It is going to be absolutely beautiful to watch her.

It's going going to be like Veep for those of you who watch that show.

Oh, it is.

It's exactly the same thing.

It is.

It is.

Michael, thank you so much.

Oh, it's a pleasure, guys.

You got, you bet.

Anarchist

Michael Malice.

Back in a minute.

All right.

On 9-11, about 3,000 people were killed in terrorist attacks on our own soil.

It was...

a horrific day for those of us who were there and remember it.

The Tunnel to Towers Foundation was one of the first people people to really step up and dedicate themselves to the families of

people who died in the towers and then to America's heroes that went to fight against those Cretans in caves.

Now they've expanded even more when a first responder or a military service member doesn't come back home and young children are left behind.

Tunnel to Towers pays off their mortgage to lift the financial burden and bring their family to stability.

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

You should see the videos of these homes and what they've done for these people so they can function like a normal human being.

Now, through Operation Home Base, Tunnel to Towers is gifting tiny homes to homeless veterans.

We should not have our veterans on the streets.

So, are you going to bitch about it and wait till Washington does something?

Are we just going to come together and do it ourselves?

Tunnel to Towers is asking for an $11 a month donation.

You donate $11 a month at t2t.org and be a part of the solution.

I tell you, this,

unlike tax day, this actually makes you feel good because you can see your money actually doing good things.

T, the number 2t.org.

Go there now.

The Glenn Back program.

Miss a day, miss a lot.

Visit Blazetv.com today and never miss a moment of truth.

Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.

Adam Curry is joining us here in a second.

If you haven't listened to his podcast yet, you're going to love it.

He is like a brother from another mother, honestly.

We met just a couple of weeks ago and just love it.

But I want him to go over this ESG.

I'm a conspiracy theorist now, according to some very large companies.

Oh,

wow.

You know, reputational risk.

You've never had your reputation attacked before, so this is hitting you in a really hard way.

A very soft underbelly.

Yeah, very good.

Well, you do have a soft underbelly,

but that's separate from this.

Yeah, but if you rub it, it's luck.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

Oh, that's Buddha.

All right.

So

we're going to talk about that here in just a second.

And this is all being mounted because I am talking to different state legislators all over the country.

We have 20 states that are either have passed or are in the midst of crafting and passing legislation against ESG.

And of course, that is nothing but a conspiracy theory.

Please get the hardbound book now.

It is in stock now, the great reset.

Please get that book now.

You are going to need it.

But this is kind of mounting because

there are some Republicans that were in.

They were all fine in Idaho

to pass this.

And now they've gotten soft because, wow, I mean, this is just risk management.

That's all ESG is.

And technically, that's true.

Technically, that's true.

I'll explain here in a little while.

But if you are in,

if you're in Idaho,

I would like you to call the office of Brent Crane.

His office number is 208-332-1058.

And I would just suggest to Brent that maybe,

maybe you should vote on this.

Against or for,

but bring it up so the whole house can vote on this and have a discussion.

Same with Joe Palmer,

Randy Armstrong, Brandon Mitchell, Cody Galloway.

In fact, I'm going to post their office numbers so you can call them.

But Idaho, this is your last call.

If they don't pass, this is only, this is the easiest one to pass.

This is, there's two pieces of legislation.

One is, hey, we're not going to invest in companies that are trying to destroy businesses in our state.

That's easy.

That's the one they're refusing to pass now.

Or taking a second look, because the banks say, the big banks say that this is just risk management.

Uh-huh.

You keep listening to the big banks.

The second one has got to pass, and we know, we have to know who you can trust.

When you're a dog owner, you want everything, everything to be perfect for the dog.

I mean, he's a member of the family, at least he is my family.

My dog Uno is nearly 10 at this point.

Victor, who was also a German Shepherd,

we were having to carry him up and down the stairs.

Uno is not like that.

In fact, I think he has...

He has regressed in age.

It is crazy how active he he is, especially for his age.

That's an old German shepherd, by the way.

10, believe it or not.

It's tragic.

Anyway, rough greens has given him the vitality that he had as a puppy, and he used to be the pickiest eater, and now he just, he gobbles his food.

Rough greens, not a dog food, it's a supplement that you sprinkle on top of the dog food, probiotics, antioxidants, everything that they need for a healthy, happy life.

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

They want to make sure your dog likes it.

If they eat it and they like it as much much as Uno does, you're going to see tremendous difference.

All you have to do is just pay for free shipping.

Or sorry, pay for the shipping.

The bag is free.

This is the Glenback program.

Hello, America.

World's on fire.

Good news.

It's Friday.

So we can just go off into our own little world here for a couple of days.

Adam Curry is coming up in just a second.

Give me 60 seconds to talk to you about Patriot Mobile.

Patriot Mobile, next time you take a look at your cell phone bill,

you can not only have the satisfaction of a lower bill, but also the satisfaction of knowing that the money you spend is not going to support causes like, I don't know, Planned Parenthood abortions, for example.

Here's what you have to do.

You just need to switch to patriotmobile.com slash back.

We must have a parallel economy soon.

We have to be working with people that hold our same values and are not working for the great reset.

Patriot Mobile is one of those companies and they do tremendous work.

They take about 10% of their profits and they apply them to pro-life, pro-freedom of speech, pro-Second Amendment.

They are constitutional conservatives

and that's their mission, not only provide you with great self-service at a much lower cost, but also to fight for the things we all believe in.

Adam Curry, a guy who I used to think was the coolest guy on television and MTV VJ for years,

and then is the guy really responsible for podcasting.

I mean, he worked with Steve Jobs to get podcasts onto the Apple iPod at the very

beginning.

He is wicked, wicked smart

and has been following things like ESG and the Great Reset for a while.

We welcome Mr.

Adam Curry.

How are you, Adam?

Hey, Glenn, good to see you, my brother.

Good to see you.

You know,

we didn't meet until a couple of weeks ago, and I can't believe that friends, we have to have mutual friends, friends, haven't put us together earlier because we think so much alike.

And I think, as I told you on your podcast, not only do we think alike, but

we've had similar paths, but we're also, I think, more or less the same age.

After this wonderful visit I had with you, you can see I want to be like you so much.

I bought one of those microphones that you have.

I'm like, wow, I sounded really good on Glenn's show.

Now I need a little beard gone.

You're just a little goatee, and you look a little like Colonel Sanders and you're all set.

I want to read something to you, Adam, and just get your thoughts on it.

We're working with 20 different states right now on legislation, anti-ESG legislation, and having the treasuries

divest themselves of places like BlackRock, okay?

Yeah.

That are clearly working against the interests of the everyday people.

So this is a statement from the Idaho Association of Commerce and Industry.

And I want to to read this to you and get

your thoughts.

Some in the Idaho legislator are opposed to consider legislation to deal with ESG or environment, social, and governance.

ESG, a risk management system, is being labeled as the latest threat to individual rights.

While as preposterous as this sounds, folks like Glenn Beck have given legislators a farcical conspiracy theory from which legislation is being crafted.

While it's easy to dismiss due to its lack of basis in reality, the problems it creates for businesses are real.

Risk management for all companies, small and large, private or publicly traded, have common threads in determining asset risks from environmental factors such as climate change or local weather patterns.

Additional risks are present in employment and management relationships and community acceptance of the business.

Finally, the governance of all companies are critical considerations when it comes to risk management for investors.

Business is, by definition, based on a risk reward system.

Legislative efforts to manage how risk inputs are evaluated are unwelcome and foundationally dangerous to free enterprise.

These people are actually using that.

The Idaho Association of Commerce and Industry believes and defends that if Idaho wants to retain the moniker of the least regulated state in the nation, there is no role for government to dictate how business or business and their investors will evaluate the importance to each company, whether it is through formal systems labeled as ESG or otherwise.

Listen to this.

The tragic reality of the new world is one where talking heads drive policy to stir the masses by creating non-existent problems and then solving the problem with massive overreaches into the private sector.

Businesses cannot stand by and allow this to happen.

And we will firmly defend our members' ability to run their own companies in the way that best suits them as a private and independent entity.

Well, first of all, congratulations.

You are now an official conspiracy theorist.

Oh, yeah.

This is good news.

This is good news.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's why I always call myself the crackpot.

I figured that's much easier.

You know, they don't have to kill me.

Well, unfortunately, and so much happened in such a fast amount of time since we last saw each other,

and a lot of it's coming much closer.

I think we're seeing the total capture.

The capture is more or less complete.

And with that, I mean, if we go back and just talk specifically about what ESG is, and it's great hearing it now.

A lot of people are talking about it.

They're not quite sure exactly what it means.

But again, it stands for environmental social governance.

And this is a

measuring standard that goes along with this, which was created literally by the bankers, including BlackRock, to and you know, with a separate foundation to determine how environmentally conscious, socially conscious, and governance conscious a corporation is.

And we're talking mainly about publicly listed companies.

And hang on just a second.

To give you an idea, there's no individual choice on anything.

I've talked to people in the oil industry this week, and they have said, Glenn, we can't,

the leases and everything.

Yeah, we need that.

We can't get a dime from the banks.

So that's ESG.

The banks say, no, those oil rigs, there it's

not just the banks.

Not just the banks.

It's much worse than that.

It's the

retirement funds, pension funds, insurance companies.

And they have, you know, for their own clients, they have certain things they can and cannot invest in.

And this ESG has become this fictitious score.

And if

I don't have a Merrill Lynch retirement account, but I understand that people who do are already seeing the ESG score of their portfolio of the companies that they have in their portfolio.

And

so we've seen a lot of this taking place over the past probably five years is when it really started to accelerate.

So environmental, that's all Green New Deal.

And holy crap, we missed, we totally weren't paying attention and they passed a trillion and a half dollars of which half is going into that kind of stuff.

The social the latest the latest bill that just the latest one, yeah, the omnibus bill.

Things are horrible.

These things are horrible.

When you look in it, all the money, I mean, and that's all, I'm sure the Federal Reserve is very happy.

Oh, yes, we've got to push some money out.

Yeah, that's not going to help inflation.

But

the social part, we've been watching

really the acceleration with Black Lives Matter.

You saw every corporation giving away tens of millions of dollars or donating tens of millions of dollars to Black Lives Matter Inc.,

which, by the way, has been completely dissolved.

There's no one around who runs it.

The founders

find the mansions, where's the money?

There's a lot of groups looking for money.

Say, hey, we were all there.

The money went through you.

Where did it go?

So that's also what's, and then you have the governance part, which is

equity.

So do we have the right amount of black and brown people in the organization?

Do we have the right amount of female to male to transgender to whatever?

It all has to be equitable and equal and equity is really the key term.

But the social governance capture

has come closer to the environmental with the war, the war, I'll just say it, in Ukraine.

I mean, first of all, COVID is yesterday's news.

We're still in that...

in that headspace where we're freaked out about stuff and during lockdowns etc

the the thing that everybody could kind of glom on to which created this social social cohesion that we all were oh my goodness there's we can get out of this was masking social distancing and eventually proof of vaccination and etc etc so now we have we're still kind of reeling from COVID.

You know, things are stopping, but there's not even any news about it.

Please pay no attention to the Pfizer documents that came out.

And we have tremendous inflation, uncertainty in the world.

War is always scary.

And what have we all glommed on to?

Thanks to the corporations who led the way.

The huge divestiture in starting with Russian oil, but then tech companies, everyone just can't.

I mean, I'm surprised they didn't wake up this morning and go to Google Maps and not be able to find Russia.

I mean, they cancel.

And we're all jumping on board.

And this is wrong.

This is fundamentally, at a human level, wrong.

It's wrong also because despite what the people say, that this is free market, that it's individual,

you know, individuals get to choose their own way.

That is not true.

That is not the case.

That is not the case.

It is the exact opposite.

Wall Street is driving this.

Wall Street is pushing.

They're saying you cannot be in Russian, in Russian stocks or Russian assets or commodities.

You've got to get out of it.

And because of this capture that's taken place with the large corporations who are advertising and telling everybody how great it is, I mean, the things that are happening.

This morning I got an email from Universal Audio.

They make audio equipment that I use.

Well, this is so horrible.

What's going on?

We cut off all Russian customers.

They can't even access our IP addresses.

Like, why are you doing that?

Isn't creativity cross boundaries?

Isn't that for all people of the world?

Same with, I'm a ham, as in ham radio operator.

There's a database online called qrz.com, qrz.com, and you can find all the call signs in there and you can look stuff up.

These guys, they took out all the Russian call signs overnight.

This is insanity.

It is psychological

escape and we're following straight into

demise.

You know,

what is happening?

I said earlier today, if they can do this to Vladimir Putin, who

willy-nilly just throws people out of windows and gets away with it, has billions of dollars and a country with a ton of nukes.

If they can do this to him,

what the hell do you think they'll think about doing something to you when you disagree?

I mean,

and it's the cancellation that is the scary part, Glenn.

It's because it's financial canceling.

And they did it to Canadian truckers.

I mean, in the omnibus bill, I don't know the exact, I think it was $100 billion the IRS is going to receive.

Yes.

And you know who they're not going to go after?

Goldman Sachs.

They're not going to go after BlackRock.

They're going to go after small people, middle-class people.

Probably people who have a low ESG score.

Probably parents who are standing up in their school board meetings and saying, this is wrong.

Those people are going to be targeted.

Yes.

And you were talking to Michael Malice earlier, another fine Texas resident.

And,

you know, he's absolutely right with

the direction we're headed with this announcement.

Well, it's just another, let's go study stuff and come back in six months.

But the cryptocurrency executive order.

The biggest story of the week.

I think that's the biggest story of the week.

Because once the central bank digital coin comes in, and you can find online videos of the director of the Bank of International Settlements talking about this, again, the Jenny Gillen Association, it's open.

They're very open about it.

That your money will have expiration.

If they give you money, you might not be able to use it

after a certain period.

Literally, your dollars could be earmarked, and this can be tracked all the way through your spending habit.

And when it pops up somewhere that you want to, I mean, I can imagine with the environmental part at a certain point, sorry, you can't buy gas today.

You've surpassed your credits.

And I know this sounds like, ah, but China is doing this.

And there's one other thing I want to say.

Russia started doing it too.

Russia's now doing it.

Yeah.

Well,

of course, it's a globalist movement.

Ultimately, the idea is to get us all people enslaved underneath what they're doing.

But

the way I see it is it's a perfect two-pronged strategy.

Now, you can inflate oil prices.

You can make energy very expensive through legislation, executive orders, etc.

I truly believe that the idea, and this is what you're hearing our administration saying, don't worry, we're going to put 500,000 charging stations in.

Don't worry, oil won't be a problem once you buy an electric vehicle.

That's what they want everybody to do.

It's obvious.

And they will push us in that direction.

It will become unaffordable to commute to work.

A whole section of people, just like COVID, will have no problem working from home.

And it will be the, it's the physicals versus the virtuals, virtuals, even though you and I, by definition, are kind of virtuals.

The physicals still have to go to works.

They have $5, $6

a gallon gas.

It's going to break that system.

Go home.

You can't work.

We'll send you some digital dollars.

Now, it's not tomorrow, but it's coming.

It's coming, I think, sooner, maybe longer than we would expect, but sooner than we hope.

Adam, hang on for just a second, because I want to continue the conversation about the digital currency.

Because

does Congress or the people have a say in any of this?

Or is it all the Fed?

We'll get to that in just a second.

More with Adam Curry.

Joseph lives in Pennsylvania.

He writes in about Rough Greens, how it's affected his dog and his life.

He says, my beagle is 17 years old.

He's sleeping about 20 hours a day.

This is like President Miles.

And Miles puts him to shame.

He's 23 hours a day.

23 hours a day, doesn't he?

Out.

He wasn't active.

I I was afraid he was going to die soon.

I tried Rough Greens.

I'm amazed.

He's wagging his tail again, and I know he's happier.

His food and rough greens are gone every day.

He's eating well, and he's more active.

I'm amazed at Rough Greens.

I appreciate getting my buddy back again.

Thanks.

Joseph, thanks for listening.

Thanks for trying Rough Greens for your dog.

And I'm so glad that your dog is seeing a difference.

It's pretty amazing the difference.

I mean, they eat it like it's crack.

I would say I don't know what's in it, but I do.

Vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants, everything that your dog needs to be healthy.

But it's like crack to them.

They love it, generally speaking, love it, and they're more active.

They run to the bowl.

10 seconds, station ID.

You know, in that executive order that Biden put out this week, it says we have six months to

decide and

come up with a plan, and we're going to consult everyone.

Well, it talked about all its stakeholders, other countries, businesses around the world, labor unions, but it didn't say anything about the American people or Congress.

Do you know that process?

Is it all through the Federal Reserve they get to choose?

Well, we have to go back to the Constitution, who's really allowed or has the power to create money, and that is certainly not a commercial bank.

But that's, you know, the Federal Reserve Act changed that.

So that would be something that we would have to go back to.

But I think that what is good for people to understand

and it's in and I came to my own understanding when I talk to banker friends or people in politics you even see it now when they talk about raising the debt limit

and there's and and and you know there's always a polarizing issue like oh my goodness you know oh the republicans are gonna shut down this the democrats are gonna shut down the government but what is really going on is uh and they're always surprised like well that you can't you can't not raise the debt limit that's un-American I mean you literally hear people say that That's un-American.

Because the way our system works, which the financial system, is, and this is why the Federal Reserve, who does create our money through debt, says, you know, we like to keep inflation at 2% a year.

That's not 2% what you're paying extra in gas or what you're paying for for household goods or this consumer price index they've made up and changed throughout the years.

That's how much money they need to print every single year to create in order for the system to work.

And that's why, you know, a Toyota truck in the 70s cost $5,000.

Now it starts at $50,000.

That is the result of money printing

throughout the decades.

And what's crazy is you saw this in real time recently.

They said in 2008, the price of gas was, what was it, $341,000.

But today, or what was, what was the price of gas?

It was $4.11.

$4.11.

Yeah.

And now today, in today's dollars they say due to inflation that would be like 525 you're like wait it was just that was 12 years ago what are you talking about you know it's not like 1950 to today

well so and so now the gig is up because throughout the financial crisis of 2008 2009 when they created a whole lot of money um then we had a similar issue in the liquidity i.e.

uh banks weren't trusting each other to even lend to each other so there's one or two weak sisters in the the mix, which is still in there.

We don't know where.

Now we have another trillion and a half dollars going in.

So they're solving these problems kind of as they go along.

But the fix is the central bank digital currency because then you don't have to create more money.

You can destroy money and you can destroy it directly from people by taking off minute amounts of their bank account after the decimal in just forever.

Adam Curry, great to talk to you.

Hope to talk to you again soon.

Thank you very much.

Adam Curry, you can find his podcast.

It's tremendous.

Wherever you get your podcast.

Okay.

Coming up.

What to do to prepare?

The Glenn Back program.

One of the first things I would do to prepare is make sure that you had something that was real.

Gold or silver is up.

Gold is up.

I don't know what it is today.

It's amazing how the DAO is up too.

Isn't that weird?

Everything's going horribly.

Yet the Dow just keeps going up.

Amazing.

If you think that's real, don't buy gold.

If you know that's a game, you might want to consider gold or silver just for a portion of what you have.

You know, spread your risk out.

A self-directed IRA, they have a special on it now with gold line, and they also have Glenn Beck specific promotions on orders for physical delivery right to your door.

Do not count

on

things staying the same because they're not going to stay the same.

So there is a

The Washington Post wrote a story, why we obsess over the details of a nuclear apocalypse.

I don't, I mean, I don't think we need a story on that.

I think, you know, being vaporized is probably why we obsess over it.

And I don't know about anybody else, but I haven't obsessed over it since I was a kid.

You know, now to not have to worry about it for 30, 40 years, and then suddenly like, hey, by the way,

they might use nukes.

That's kind of a problem.

Seeing that it's the old foe

that actually has all those old nukes and some new ones too.

Kind of a bad thing.

So we were talking about it in the office and Rob Eno, who is our Blaze TV media critic,

started talking to us about the things that we have to do.

And so I thought I would bring him in today.

I didn't realize he was going to wear a hazmat suit.

But you're looking good, Rob.

Well, well, thank you.

I'm going to take off the mask.

You are the only person that could get me to wear a mask

today.

Yeah,

the mask, of course, is, I don't know if you saw, but the Department of Homeland Security said that after after the nuclear blast hits and after you've used your school desk.

Yeah, that you have to get under.

To get under, to protect yourself.

Which when I was about six, I knew that was ridiculous.

Right.

Yeah.

We saw the film of how everything is vaporized.

Yeah.

And then they said with the turtle, get under the desk.

And I remember being probably six going, this is not going to protect me from what I just saw.

I will say, too, I'm happy you took the mask off because I don't picture you that way.

But I also say any white guy wearing a white hood, also not a good person.

Yeah, not a good

one.

All right, so good.

Clayton Bigsby.

I was doing my Clayton Bigsby impersonation.

Okay.

So they said you're supposed to, you know, and then you're supposed to wash your clothes or wash yourself.

And then apparently after you get the radiation off, you're supposed to go in the follow-up.

Remember follow-out shelters?

Oh, yeah.

My grammar school had a follow-up shelter with the number of people that could be in the building.

Like this used to be something I think our millennial and Gen Z listeners don't remember this.

My senior essay in high school for the American government class or whatever it was was on our fallout shelter because one end of it ended in ventilation right outside.

And it was like, that's really not how it's supposed to work.

But anyway.

So then to protect everybody in there, you're supposed to do the six-foot distancing and wear a mask so that they don't get COVID.

We've had a nuclear bomb, but that's what we're supposed to do.

But there's some other, I mean, this is obviously joking, but there's some other things that people can do.

I don't know if you saw the study a couple weeks ago, but a vast majority of millennials and Gen Zs couldn't use a paper map to save their life.

I think this is a real problem.

Right.

You know, things go down, just GPS for any reason.

GPS goes down.

Nobody knows how to get anywhere.

Right.

I mean, and it's heavily hackable, the GPS system.

You also say the map is?

No, no, no, no.

The GPS system, not the map, but the GPS system is heavily hackable.

And the Russians have already said that they've got directed energy weapons that they've tested on a satellite and shot it down to tell us that if we do something to them, they're going to take out our GPS system first.

So all the millennials, they've got the phone and they think that they can, in Gen Zers, they can go someplace.

Get yourself a map.

I don't know if you know, one of my hobbies is I'm trying to drive through every county in the United States, and I'm at about 75% of them.

You're not married, are you?

I'm not.

Which makes it easy.

No, it does make it easy.

easy.

I was just, I mean,

there's a few tip-offs.

There's a chicken and an egg situation going on there as well.

I have the big Ram McNally Road Atlas that I buy every month, but I just figured I'd bring in the small ones.

I got up in Texas.

I have to tell you, we got rid of ours.

When Tanya and I met 25 years ago, she used to be the navigator and she would read the map and I would drive.

And we were so excited when GPS came out because it would end the arguments.

No,

no, you missed the turn.

I told you it was right there.

All of that stuff went away.

But we can read maps.

My kids don't even know anything about them.

Right.

And you need, so learn how to read a map.

Yeah.

Get yourself a compass.

I know that it's going to flip when the magnetic flips.

I know that's, you've been wondering about that since you were a kid.

No, it's coming.

So, but, you know, get yourself a map.

Just know where the declination is for the

magnetic north and use a map.

So that's, you know, one thing.

The other thing is, I mean, I bought iodine this week.

I don't know if you remember.

I do, but

it's a little, I mean.

It's a little much.

Yeah, it's a little much.

I might have bought it for the bit.

I did buy it.

All right.

But, you know, in Europe, that, I think they sold out of iodine.

Right.

Because, you know, they're right there.

Right.

And what iodine does is apparently the radioactive iodine will go into your thyroid.

So if you have regular iodine in your thyroid, then the radioactive iodine can't go in, and that saves your system.

That's the science science of the problem.

How much of that?

Do you just like take a switch?

I don't know.

You have to look online.

I am not Dr.

Rob.

If we have a.

I'm not Dr.

Rob.

That might be something you look up to because along with a map, you may not have

internet.

Right.

I'm just saying.

Yeah, print these things out to have them.

Then you should have a bug out bag.

Maybe not this one.

Okay.

So for the bit.

And I needed a bug out bag.

This is the smallest bug out bag ever.

This is basically for a smurf.

Yes, it is.

I went online and I went to Amazon and I bought a bug out bag and I looked at the bug out bag and it said it has 242 pieces in it.

So I assume that it would be somewhat big.

Because it looks like a backpack.

A backpack, a bigpack, but a very, very small backpack.

But it actually has stuff that you can use, right?

It's got,

you know, it's got a shovel.

If you were a Smurf and needed to dig a latrine pit, you know, there's a Smurf-sized shovel.

That's like a garden home.

Yeah.

I would get a bigger kit.

Yeah.

I'm just saying.

I'm just saying.

Yeah.

This is the one.

I mean, unless you're, you know, like I come from big-boned people.

That's what

everybody fat in my family used to say.

We're big-boned people.

No, we're not.

We're fat.

This is for very small-boned people.

So this is

why I thought it was going to be big.

It said it came with an axe.

Oh, wow.

So this is the axe.

What is that?

A dandelion axe?

Yeah, I think you can cut down some dandelions with.

But there are two.

That's about the size of about two fingers, by the way.

The actual blade of the axe.

Yeah, there are some things you can use.

I mean, there's...

Those are very good things.

These are actually very good to have in the car.

So this is actually going to go in my car.

This is if you're caging any illegal immigrants.

Yes.

That's what the space space.

Or if your car gets out, or you want it, maybe it protects radiation.

I don't know.

Within my law, I can't say that.

You might want to look that up too before the internet goes.

Right.

But, you know, you've got these types of things.

So do you, this is how I know who's really prepared.

Do you have food storage?

I do.

You do.

How long?

About 30 days, not a lot.

If that's good.

So that's that's better than most.

Okay.

Do you have a go bag in your car or anything else?

This was the start of it.

Okay, that was the start of it.

So it's a good start.

It's a good start.

Good start.

Do you have a surgical kit?

This is where it separates the men and the boys.

This actually has string.

It doesn't have a full surgical kit, but I can like jerry rig it.

I can fish.

Yeah.

You know what's crazy?

This has string.

You got a broken leg.

Give me that string.

But that brings up the, I mean, we were all of an age where we probably were all Boy Scouts for a certain period of time.

That was part of what we did.

And I couldn't find it.

I've moved like three times in the past four years.

I couldn't find it.

I have a 1972 Boy Scout field book, which is fantastic.

Not the handbook.

It's a field book, and it's a survival manual.

It teaches you.

You know, the other things like how to lash.

Like, I don't think many people have to be able to do that.

I don't even know.

Did somebody say to me, Stu, you're got to be like me.

Hey, hey, take on the lashing, will you?

Yeah.

Is it whipping people?

I don't know what's how to build structures with wood and small trees.

You know, you take the things, like you look the bridge over the River Kwai.

Like the boy scouts touch.

I don't live in that world.

You know, it's crazy is, you know, I have the, I was so proud.

I got the the surgical kit.

And I mean, it has everything.

It has, I mean, you can remove an appendix or whatever, you know, have it, brought it home, got the book, how to remove the appendix and things like that.

You know, I'm not coming to your house for anything.

Yeah, you know, just so we know.

Tanya said,

honey,

who's going to do the surgery?

Yeah.

Because I ain't doing it on you, and I certainly do not want you doing it on me.

And I'm like, whoa.

I mean, but if we have to, she's like, let me die.

Let my appendix burst.

I don't want you with your grubby hands in my internal organs.

I think this is the appendix.

Why is there Cheeto dust in there?

I don't understand.

She died from the Cheeto infection.

I don't know.

I think this is, I feel like buying a surgical kit is how the series Dexter starts.

You know, it just, it doesn't end well.

Now the problem is, is I have all of this stuff.

If we were in an emergency and somebody's like, I have to have my appendix out, I'd have no idea where it is.

Okay, kids, everybody into the garage, start going through those boxes.

I know we have one here someplace.

This happened in the documentary, Spies Like Us, where they had to improvise an appendix removal.

They were not able to do it either.

Well, I figure the first person will die of appendicitis.

It'll burst.

The second person will at least have the set.

We'll know where it is.

Because we're like, that can't happen again.

Let's make sure we all remember where the set is.

Then that person will die because we have no idea what we're doing.

The third person will also die because the person who had just a little bit of experience will be in so much trauma, they won't be able to do it.

Right.

But by like person 85,

there's a good chance they might survive.

Exactly.

Right.

Rob, thank you so much for coming in.

Now you feel prepared, right?

Now you feel prepared.

Okay, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour is Real Estate Agents I Trust.

There are decent real estate agents and then there are agents who come from, you know, real estate agents I trust.

This is my company

and

this was born out of frustration because I didn't know, I didn't even know how to interview a real estate agent.

I don't know.

Does anybody know a good real estate agent?

That was my system.

And then whatever name I got, I just call and say, can you sell my house?

Okay.

That's really not a good way to find somebody to handle the biggest investment of your life.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Believe it or not.

So that's why we came up with realestate agentsitrust.com.

It is a, it's a, a way for us to go in.

These people don't work for us.

We vet real estate agents that want us to recommend and we look at them.

We have thousands of real estate agents that we that want to be on our list.

We won't do it because we want want to make sure it's a manageable number, a manageable amount of people that we can follow up and make sure these people have the best track record, the best customer service, and they sell the most houses in your area.

Did you really buy a surgical kit?

I did buy a surgical kit.

What is in it?

Like

knives and stuff?

Yeah, scalpels and things that you know you use to open people up.

Well, if you're describing it that way, you shouldn't have to.

No, I shouldn't be.

I want to live.

I want a neighbor who is either a doctor or a vet.

A vet.

I'll take a vet.

At that point, yes.

Over me?

Oh, that's a vet.

I'll take a vet in a second over you.

Right.

And, you know, my next, I'm, I haven't decided yet.

No, I've decided, but my wife hasn't heard about this yet.

Oh.

Okay.

And so that's what's going to stop me.

I want an x-ray machine.

I really want a CAT scan, but those are way expensive.

And you want a home x-ray machine?

Yeah.

Yeah.

That doesn't strike you as insane at all.

No, because I think

that, I mean, I'm planning on, you know, trying to help people.

You know what I mean?

Right.

And not like I'm hanging out the Dr.

Beck shingle, which technically I could do.

Not that, but I mean, if things break down and you don't have access to things,

if I have a doctor friend or a vet,

If people are in real trouble,

we could fix them.

This is.

Not me, not me, but they could fix fix you.

This is striking me as H.H.

Holmes, and how that story started.

Like, you're building a house with trapdoors.

No, there's no trapdoors.

What is going on with you?

No.

No,

I was thinking to myself today.

I was like, I really need to get a generator.

And it just shows how many steps behind this road I am from you.

I'm like, I need to, you know, I need to get a coat.

Yeah.

I should buy a coat.

So that's a 3D printing machine.

A big one.

A big one.

And because you have one already.

No, I'm talking what?

You have a 3D machine.

I have a little teeny one.

I mean, because I live in a place where, you know, tractors are used.

If you can't get a part,

we have to make a part.

Right.

You know what I mean?

So a 3D printer would be really good.

I'm thinking community.

I'm not thinking for when the

apocalypse comes, I'm going to be making toys.

I mean, you know, it's, I'm not sitting in my house just making, you know, that looks just like it.

It is cool, though.

It's fun to make things out of 3D printers.

It is.

It is.

But I'm thinking about the community.

What is it that is a high-ticket item that maybe

nobody else can have and nobody else can afford as we pool things together?

Jay Leno has a 3D printer for all of his old-timey cars.

Right.

And he can print the out-of-whatever.

If you can't get a certain part for a 1958 car, he can print it.

Right.

So you get one of those.

That seems like.

Yeah.

Maybe I could print an x-ray machine.

See, here's the problem, though.

You are not, you're not prepared.

I mean, you are out in the cold, you know, going, I should have thought of gloves.

Right.

Yes, that's me.

Right.

But I am so prepared, but I'm so far down the road.

I just have this feeling that it's going to be something like, oh, don't worry about it.

We have an x-ray machine.

All I have to do is plug it.

Oh, no.

Crap.

It's going to be one of those things.

This needs to go into a European plug.

What?

It's going to be one of those things.

Don't worry.

I can use the 3D printer, but it it needs to be plugged in, too.

So true.

Glenn, you shouldn't have bought all those excess supplies from Ukraine.

Yeah.

Because there is a point, and I think you're well beyond it, where you can't prepare for everything and you wind up preparing for a million things that won't happen.

And the one thing that you've left off the list is the thing that will occur.

Yeah, but I am preparing in such a way because my wife said, honey, honey, honey, honey,

if none of this happens for the next 10 years,

that's a bad, that's a really, that wasn't a good investment.

And I'm like, yeah, I know, but if it does, I can live with,

it didn't happen.

I couldn't live with having the means to help people and then missing the boat.

You know what I mean?

Yeah, I've had that thought with a, before I owned a gun, I had that thought all the time.

Like, if I don't get a gun, somebody's got to break in here.

I'm going to just, all I'm going to be thinking about, not my children dying,

not a gun to the side of my head.

It's just like, why didn't I go to the stupid gun store?

That's the way I feel about an x-ray machine.

Why didn't I get the x-ray machine?

At least on Halloween, you'll be able to really x-ray the candy and find out if there's metal inside.

My neighborhood will be safe.
