If you believe as I do that the Old Testament is incredibly important in our lives, then you're probably as frustrated as I've been at seeing how it's being lost, how it's being forgotten, how it's misunderstood.
Hollywood has made films based on the Old Testament stories before,
but they always change things and they make them virtually unrecognizable.
A lot of times, just throwing out the meaning entirely or completely missing the point.
My friend, the amazing screenwriter Andrew Clavin, is working to change that.
Through a group called Kaio, KO films, he's creating the Covenant, a multi-season TV series adaptation of the stories of the Old Testament.
The Covenant will use biblical and historical text to lead viewers through the stories of patriarchs.
If you want to invest in this project, do it at kotv.com/slash back.
What you were about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This
is
the Glenback Program.
Ah, yes.
Pack rate for Glenn today.
He's just finishing up his Mercury One speech from Saturday night.
So
we think he'll be done any minute now.
Is that the longest speech in the history of mankind?
It was excellent.
But long.
20 minutes.
That's what it was supposed to be.
20 minutes.
20 minutes speech.
How long did they end up being?
17 hours, something like that.
I think it was 17 hours and 20 minutes.
So it was really close.
Anyway, we got the harassment of Kirsten Cinema that continues.
And it's just unbelievable that this is allowed to continue.
We'll have that and lots more coming up.
The Glenn Beck program.
All right.
Kirsten Cinema.
Seems like
Kirsten is a female, if I'm not mistaken.
Is that important anymore?
I guess not, because we're supposed to not.
Point of personal privilege?
Yeah, go ahead.
Go ahead.
Please do not use gendered language to
address everyone.
That's a good point.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
So is it okay to mention the fact that they're harassing a woman?
It used to be in the old days that, I don't know, we protected women, that
stalking women and following them into a bathroom would be frowned upon.
And that just isn't the case anymore.
Today they're doing the Boston Marathon and
these people from the activists of Living United for Change in Arizona, Lucha,
is
apparently planning to bird dog cinema at the Boston Marathon.
When is enough enough?
There's a coalition known as the Green New Deal Network.
I guess they're the ones that are going to be at the Boston Marathon today.
It was Lucha who
who followed her into the bathroom.
It just, it's unconscionable to me, and it seems to be accepted now that, I mean, you've got the president of the United States who said it's part of the process.
What do you mean it's part of the process?
Following women, harassing women.
going into the bathroom, filming them,
yelling at them as they're in the stall.
and by the way the the woman who was filming was was standing in front of uh kirsten cinema stall then a guy came in to the bathroom as well
uh hmm
how can this be okay it's not okay
it is not okay
and yet it continues and today i guess they're gonna they what they call bird dog her
uh my producer keith is is here with me today um do you have any idea what bird-dogging is?
Oh my gosh.
You're going to make me Google this earlier in the show?
Yeah.
Let's see what bird-dogging, because I guess they're just going to run with her, follow her.
I bet.
You know, they're not going to make it the entire way.
They're probably just going to run for like 100 yards and then hand it off to
somebody else.
Yeah.
Let's see here.
Bird-dogging.
Let's see.
Yeah, just, it just says,
search out or pursue with dogged determination, which means since they're not in shape enough to run this marathon, there's probably going to be a hundred or so of the activists just each taking one section of the race.
But yeah, and this is to
get her to change her mind on the $3.5 trillion Build Back Better Act.
She doesn't want to spend
$3.5 trillion,
even though we know that's all free, you know, to most American people.
It's free to most of us.
It's zero dollars.
They have the unmitigated gall to claim that $3.5 trillion
really means zero dollars coming out of
the U.S.
budget.
That's Common Core.
That's how we go.
Common Core math?
Common Core math.
Wow.
$3.5 trillion, same as zero.
It's the same thing.
Yep.
We've got them saying over and over and over that it is uh zero dollars uh do we have that uh yeah when they couldn't convince us uh convince cinema and mansion to spend this kind of money they changed their argument and now it now it doesn't cost anything now it's zero dollars the reconciliation package would cost zero dollars and best of all the cost of these bills in terms of adding to the deficit is zero zero zero zero zero as i said to the president i heard him say this is a zero dollar bill because it's all going to be paid for with taxes on the wealthiest corporations and the wealthiest individuals.
But at the end of the day, Chris, I think what's important for people to understand
is that this piece of legislation costs zero.
So we're going to pay for it all.
It's not about a dollar amount.
The dollar amount, as the president said, is zero.
This bill will be paid for.
This is a tax cut.
Some have expressed publicly that they're not comfortable with 3.5, even though zero costs zero dollars.
But in fact, the bill itself will not cost $3.5 trillion in the sense that it will be entirely or at least partly paid for.
So the actual cost in terms of deficits will be smaller than that, perhaps even zero, although I think that's unlikely.
Secretary Yellow, do you believe that President Biden's reconciliation package proposal, the one with the $3.5 trillion in total spending, will cost zero and be fully paid for?
Yes, I do.
We talked about price tags.
She does.
It is zero.
Zero is what we're doing.
Price tag on the debt.
We're paying.
Zero.
We're going to pay for everything we spend.
So it's not, you know, people,
understandably,
well, you know, it started off at $6 trillion, now it's $3.5 trillion, now it's going to be $2.9.
It's going to be zero.
So are you now admitting that the plan does not cost zero or is it less than zero?
Well,
let's not dumb this down for the American public here.
What we're talking about is how much the top-line investments are, which are all paid for, so therefore it costs zero.
No matter what the cost or size of the top-line investments are, we have ways to pay for it.
If it's a $2 trillion
spending plan, net net, it costs $2 trillion.
No, no, come on.
Well, I'm not necessarily sure about that.
Zero.
Zero dollars.
Zero dollar bills.
Zero dollar bills.
Zero costs zero dollars.
It's going to be zero.
So therefore, it costs zero.
Zero.
Incredible.
Zero.
Zero.
Zero.
What am I doing here?
I don't know.
What are you doing?
It's going to cost zero dollars.
So why do we need that trillion dollar coin?
Because if it's zero, it's a good question.
That's a really good question.
That's just to eliminate the
spending limit because we don't want to ever be limited in our spending at all, ever.
So I think that has to do with more of, yeah, we can get away with this zero-dollar thing, but later on we might not get away with that.
And so we need that trillion-dollar trillion-dollar coin in the bank so that we can just keep spending.
Well, as we've discussed, just keep spending.
On your show that comes on before this one here, Pat Gray Unleashed, you know, why are we stopping at one $1 trillion coin?
Right.
I think we should do 100,
$100 trillion coins for $100 trillion in debt.
Got some breathing room there for future rainy day fund.
Because think about it, we're already $28.5 trillion in debt.
This $3 trillion spending, if you don't believe the zero dollars of debt,
if you don't believe that,
then it's going to be about $31, $32 trillion
in debt.
Some room to work with.
And I want some room to work with.
So this gives us $68 trillion or so to work with.
I'll leave you with that.
So that should get us through to January.
If we're lucky.
If we're lucky.
If we really tighten our belts, maybe we could make it to January with an extra $68 trillion in debt.
But the thing is, you don't even have to worry about this, America, because Jeff Bezos is paying the whole bill.
Is that right?
Bill Gates,
Donald Trump, those guys.
Those are the ones who, although Donald Trump, he's not even on the list of the richest 400 Americans anymore.
He actually is the first I know of
since maybe Thomas Jefferson to lose money while he was in office.
Wow.
Well, that's going to happen when you don't take a salary for doing the job as president of the United States, right?
Which nobody ever talked about.
Nobody mentioned.
But yeah, the rich guys, they're going to pay for the whole burden, so you don't need to worry about it at all.
Oh, well, now I'm on board.
Yeah.
Yeah, I wasn't sold until you said it like that.
You know, the companies that we all hate, the mean big companies that make a lot of money and the mean owners of those mean companies, they're the ones who are going to foot the bill for this thing.
So we don't have to worry about it.
So now we can get Warren Buffett to start paying his fair share.
Yeah.
Finally, pay a little more than his secretary does.
It's about time.
Wouldn't that be nice?
I'd like to know who his secretary's tax person is
if she is paying more than
her boss because something
radically wrong there.
Yeah, somebody's taking you to the bank.
Really are.
Somebody's going to bezeling money from
Warren Buffett's secretary.
And it's wrong.
I think it should stop.
And that's not talked about enough either.
It really isn't.
Really isn't.
So here we are in the midst of this thing.
And I don't know if they're going to get Kirsten Cinema and Bill Manchin or Joe Manchin to cave on this or not.
I don't know.
They've been holding out pretty well so far.
Yeah, I mean, in Manchin, even to the point where he was calling out Chuck Schumer for ripping the GOP.
So, I mean, this, I don't know where this spine came from for Joe Manchin, but
I don't either because he was, we had no confidence in him.
He always got caves at the end.
Every single time.
And for some reason, he got some gumption this time, and he seems to be sticking to his gun.
Doesn't it feel good to finally see Democrats having to convince their own membership to vote in lockstep?
It's always the other way.
I love this unique experience that we're witnessing here.
And the longer this drags on, the longer
this draws out as we hopefully run out the clock on complete power for Democrats in D.C.
I love it.
We'll just see if it we'll see if it holds up.
But so far, it has.
And you're right.
It is great to see the Democrats having to worry about this because it's usually...
It's usually Republicans with Lisa Murkowski
and all the other fringe people now Mitt Hardy and now Mitt Romney
that are.
Yeah,
I'm going to vote for impeachment because it's the right thing to do.
He shouldn't have colluded with the Russians.
You know, doing stupid, believing their rhetoric and falling into the Democrat trap.
And I hate seeing that time and again with the Republicans.
Yeah, and usually the Republicans will have 54, 55 seats, and they'll still not have have the majority when push comes to shove for a vote like this.
Here, it's a razor-thin margin for the Democrats, and they've got no room for error, and this is fun to see.
And apparently, there's some Democrats in the House that are also not on board, and we're not hearing about that at all.
But for the first time over the weekend, I started hearing that there are some House Democrats who are really opposed to the $3 trillion
budget as well.
And the Democrats just keep saying it's two people in the way.
There's two people.
No, there's two people in the Senate, but there's more than that if you include the House.
And
you just may not be able to get this one jammed down our throats.
And it was even in that montage where Biden is referring to the $6 trillion plan.
Remember, Bernie wanted this at $6 trillion.
And then they got it down to $3.5 trillion, but now they're having to make this case that it's
not a cent at all.
All that stuff we told you about, the $3.5 trillion, the the six trillion, no,
it was a joke.
It's zero.
It's really just zero.
So we'll see.
We'll see.
I like this.

10 seconds, station ID.
Just a quick little
warning that they're throwing out here for us.
And there's all kinds of these warnings due to shortages of some sort in just about every industry right now.
They're talking about Christmas toys.
They're talking about Christmas
meals.
And now Christmas tree shortages may be on the way for us this holiday season.
Christmas tree shortages?
Well, yeah, we only have 3 trillion trees on the planet.
I mean, how many
do you think we have to go around here?
But the supply chain problem, it's global and it's hampering everything.
I mean, we are not short on things that are being manufactured.
Like, for instance, trees.
There's plenty of trees on the planet, right?
We just can't get them to you
because the supply chain is all screwed up.
And that's partly because of COVID-19 and it's partly because of a labor shortage.
And so it's, you know, just Joe Biden's America that is working so well.
He was going to restore
everything
that was great in America to us, wasn't he?
I thought he was going to restore the respect we had.
He was going to restore
the continuity that we've always enjoyed.
Everything was going to be better once Joe Biden got into office.
And that's why 81 million people voted for him.
Literally, everything costs more.
Everything costs more.
Everything's harder to get.
Everything's gone to hell.
I mean, really?
Name the thing that is better since Joe Biden took over in January.
Can you name a single thing?
Third worldification of America is underway.
And this is only Christmas number one of four.
Right.
yeah right no i don't like they just don't know they don't know what they're doing they do not know what they're doing um or do they or or do they or are they is this part of of the plan i mean
we were told that this i guess we should expect this because what was it michelle said and barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices we're going to have to change our conversation conversation we're going to have to change our traditions We're going to change our history.
We're going to have to move into a different place.
And we've done that.
We've moved into a different place.
We've gone from a good place to a bad place.
So congratulations.
The fundamental transformation of America is being finished by the Biden administration.
And as far as these Christmas trees, Costco and all retailers will be impacted by the reduced tree supply this season.
We anticipate that most retailers that typically sell both live and artificial trees will continue to do so, although they will have limited supply compared to past years.
Jeez, even for the artificial trees?
Probably more so for those, right?
Because those are coming from overseas.
Right.
I would guess.
Wow.
The American Christmas Tree Association credited the significantly reduced supply to extreme weather in the Pacific Northwest and Midwest, as well as massive supply chain blockage created by the pandemic.
Why don't we just all go celebrate in off the coast of California where all those ships are backed up?
Because that's where all of our Christmas presents and artificial trees are.
We'll just all meet there.
So, yeah, we'll just find the container
that has all the trees in it.
We'll set up the trees, decorate them with the stuff that are in the other containers.
Yep, that's boat 376B, I believe, for that.
And then we'll find the toys and put them under the tree that we just decorated
on the ships.
I didn't catch what ship the toys are on, but
yeah,
not good.
Not good at all.
This should be interesting.
And, you know,
maybe it's being overblown.
That's what I hope it is.
I hope it's exaggerated.
You know, the warning, the fear, because usually that's the case.
You hear this kind of stuff in the past and you think, ah, it didn't really happen.
This time, I'm afraid it's really going to happen.
Yeah, I mean, you're seeing the images on your show.
We've shown the images of all the ships out at sea, whether it's from up above, like drone footage or on the little screen there.
Especially like the Los Angeles Harbor with
90 last at last count, it's probably more than this now, but it was 90 gigantic ships all jammed in there together.
It was so bad that you couldn't even get around this basically blockade.
in the Los Angeles Harbor.
Yeah, some companies are now just hiring their own charter ships to move this stuff.
I'm trying to find out what our current count is on how many ships are out there.
Well, it's a lot.
It's
quite a few.
It's a lot.
Yeah.
And we've never seen anything like this.
888-727,
B-E-C-K.
Much more where this came from.
Pat Gray.
for Glenn Beck on the Glenn Beck program.
Also, Southwest Airlines had a a little surprise over the weekend.
We'll tell you about that coming up.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Let me tell you about real estate agentsi trust.com.
If you're looking to buy or you're looking to sell,
these are the realtors that you need to talk to.
Because when you're buying a home or selling a home, maybe you're doing both because you're relocating.
Chances are pretty good that if I say the words the best around, you remember someone delivering a crane kick to someone else's face to win a contest.
Some kid who used karate, some karate kid.
But here's the thing.
When I say the best around,
you should know that I'm talking about the people that Glenn's company works with at Real Estate Agents I Trust.
Glenn started this company a number of years ago with Robert, his brother, and as a free service to you.
So what they do is pair you up with the absolute best agents in your area.
And these are agents that can advise you on, you know, whether or not you should repaint or replace countertops or all of those kinds of things because they're successful.
They know what they're doing.
Go to realestate agentsitrust.com.
Be sure to check out Pat Gray Unleashed.
We make the apocalypse fun every morning from 7 to 9 a.m.
Eastern right here on Blaze TV.
Glenn's a little under the weather today.
It's Pat Gray, my producer Keith.
Welcome.
Great to have you with us.
You know, one of my geods, a Pat Great Geod, is this civil asset forfeiture thing.
Yeah, you don't like that.
I don't like it.
And none of us as Americans should like it, and we shouldn't tolerate it.
There are,
for some reason, there's law enforcement people,
officers, who are just removing, who are just stealing money from upstanding Americans who happen to have large sums of money on them.
There's nothing wrong with having large sums of money on you.
You can travel with cash if you want to.
At least you're supposed to be able to.
But for some reason, if you're pulled over and you've got, you know, $10,000 or $80,000 or $100,000 on you, and I don't know why you have that much cash.
It's none of my business.
Neither is it the business of any police officer or FBI agent.
It's none of their business unless you've done something wrong and there's serious
evidence to that.
And then even when that evidence doesn't present itself, the money's still gone.
Right.
I mean, in most cases, in almost all of these civil asset forfeiture cases, the person who's had the money taken from them isn't even charged with a crime, and yet they lose their money.
Well, you can petition the government to get it back.
First of all, you shouldn't have to do that.
Secondly, they're not getting their money back usually, even when they petition the government and say, Look, I've done nothing wrong.
I have not been charged with a crime.
And yet you have tens of thousands of dollars that you took from me.
Give it back.
The FBI raided that place in Los Angeles,
that vault.
It was a safe deposit vault.
And they claimed that there was, I don't know, some sort of drug paraphernalia being deposited in there.
In one box.
In one box.
But they took all 80.
There were 80 boxes there, and they took everything from everybody.
So all kinds of Americans, just some of them had their life savings in there.
And the FBI just helped themselves to it and took it all.
Well, then it turned out there wasn't even a problem with the one deposit box.
They couldn't even prove anything was wrong there.
So there was no reason for any of it.
And yet they took millions and millions of dollars worth of cash and valuables from people, and they still haven't gotten them back, even though they petitioned the government.
Un-American.
It's un-American.
It's unconstitutional.
And this has been happening all over the country.
Billions of dollars, billions and billions of dollars.
I think it was, was it $2 billion last year alone or something to that effect?
It's so wrong, and it just keeps happening.
A federal agent just seized $115,000 from a man at the Raleigh airport.
The agent said he's going to launch a federal investigation of money laundering and drug activity.
Well, then he offers the man a way out.
Surrender your cash, and there'll be no investigation.
Do we have we actually have the video of that?
Yeah, news report.
Yep.
Check this out.
The agent told Lyon he wasn't leaving with his money.
I think think there's probably some legitimacy to your claim,
but based on
some of these findings, I'm going to seize your money under administrative seeds, the homeland security,
and we're going to give you about 60 days to come up with an appeal.
You receive these discussions.
60 days to come up with the receipt.
You know, it's just
something, There's something that it's feels like there's something more here.
You got a last minute to provide legitimacy for your money.
Pause it for a second.
I don't have to provide legitimacy for my money.
Unless you're charging me with a crime here,
the proof, and even if you are, the proof is on you, not me.
You've got to prove that I did something wrong.
I don't have to prove that I did something right.
Yeah, the agent says, I just got a feeling there's something more here.
So until you can...
Yeah, I'm sorry.
It takes more than that.
Until you can prove and show me all your receipts.
No, you prove that I did something wrong.
This is backwards.
They're just turning justice upside down in this country.
Yeah, the most recent national numbers I can find is that federal authorities seized over $4 billion in 2013 from Americans.
Texas alone, just a few years ago,
seized more than $50 million through civil asset forfeiture.
Gosh.
So this guy offers the guy, the man, a way out by, you know, you surrender your cash and we won't investigate you.
Oh, okay.
I just let you take $115,000 from me.
Yeah.
And then you won't investigate me.
And I forgot this gentleman with the money.
He, like, like we always hear, he had a legitimate reason to be traveling with that kind of money off to buy some equipment or something.
He shouldn't have to say that.
Exactly.
He shouldn't have to say that.
If I just want to take $115,000 in spending money with me, and I've got that kind of money, I should just be able to do it.
And it's none of your business why I have it.
Maybe I'm going to gamble it all.
It's none of your business.
As long as I'm not doing anything illegal.
Or maybe you did win that gambling, too.
Maybe.
You know?
Right.
Right.
Or maybe I just spend a lot of money at Bucky's.
or 7-Eleven.
That's understandable.
You know, maybe, maybe,
maybe I'm going to buy...
There was a guy who was going to buy a brand new truck that was $80,000 or something, and he took it with him.
And I forget the deal was with his bank account.
It was just easier for him to pay cash, and he was going to do that.
But again, that's none of your business.
But let's go back to your Bucky's visit because they have an entire wall, several walls, actually filled with every kind of flavor of beef turkey you can imagine.
I can totally see you dropping $115,000.
You can easily drop $115,000 at Bucky's in one stop.
Easily.
I'm not arguing with that point.
They've got the really good sandwiches.
Oh, they've got those.
They've got the briskets in there.
They're crispy, like they're potato chips, but they're warm.
Yeah.
You know, and they're under the heat lamp.
Really good.
We could
damage at Bucky's.
A lot of different kinds of drinks.
Oh, I could do serious damage at Bucky's with $115,000.
And we haven't even gotten to the t-shirt and the little tote bags that they sell there.
That's right.
Good place.
We've only been to one section of Bucky's so far and we've spent $115,000.
That's a good point.
And if people don't recognize the reference, here in Texas, we have these, they're, for lack of a better description,
they're gas stations.
They're convenience stores that are palaces that stretch on for acres.
That are like bigger than a Walmart.
Well, almost.
About the size of.
You know what?
A neighborhood won't behave.
How about that?
Yeah.
And it's a convenience store.
Right.
No, it's a playground.
It's awesome.
Every time we see one, we stop whether we need to or not because they're just fun.
It's just fun in there.
You got to get your picture made with the beaver up front, too.
Right.
But
you shouldn't have to justify why you have money with you when you're an American citizen in good standing and you're not doing anything wrong and there's no reason for them to take this kind of money.
It is so bizarre that they can just do this.
It used to be.
You had to be charged with something.
Oh, that's old times.
That's old.
Come on.
That's timey.
Come on.
Yeah.
That's when we had the rule of law in this country.
What are you talking about?
Those days don't come back.
I'm afraid you're absolutely correct with that assessment.
I mean, I hope they do, but it looks like they're not going to.
It's definitely fading in our rearview mirror like so many other things in this country.
Yeah.
And, you know, at the Raleigh airport, it's not like they have the excuse, well, one of our drug dogs hit on that cash.
I doubt that happened at the airport.
Maybe.
But what, what is even,
what was the impetus to even look into this, to even find the $115,000 and then take it from him?
If you got it in your bag and your bag goes through the machine and they see all the cash, is that a reason for them to go through your bag and take the money?
I don't understand.
Is this 2021 America you're referring to?
Yeah, or it
must be fine in 2021 America.
I don't know why, but it apparently is.
But this is one of your Pat Gray jihads that you're constantly railing on on your show.
And it's just,
it's one of so many ways that our freedoms where people, I cannot take this argument of, how have you lost any of your freedoms?
Well, here's one example.
If if you'd like one.
Wow.
We can start with that one there.
Well, and I remember asking that question of people who were talking about the Patriot Act.
Remember those days?
I don't know.
Wow, I lose my freedom to this Patriot.
Oh, come on.
What freedom have you lost to the Patriot Act?
Which was foolhardy of me to ask because
it did.
It did cut into our freedoms.
What they started doing
with the Patriot Act was using it against American people instead of terrorists
and again that was also for drugs it was also the war on drugs that they decided to use the patriot act to uh find you know
uh
drugs pushers and abusers and that's how they brought down a lot of drug um dealers yeah uh in the 20 years since we've had the patriot act far and away it has been used to target americans more than international terrorists Something like 88 or 90% of the time.
That was kind of the number in my head as well.
It's a huge number.
Huge number.
And it, again,
we've just allowed it to kind of slide down that hill.
And,
you know, we talk about the slippery slope.
There's no slope anymore.
We're down at the bottom of the hill now.
Yeah, now we're going to go.
Now we've got to push it back up the hill.
I guess now we're okay with being told you have to get a vaccine in order to stay employed.
that's where we've slid to.
That's fine, by the way.
That's cool.
Don't worry about that.
Yeah, that's fine.
I'm not going to be fine with that.
Really?
Yeah.
I mean, you had mentioned Southwest Airlines.
That was a helpful push back yesterday.
Yeah, they, I mean, a bunch of employees called in sick because they don't want to cave in to this, you've got to get your vaccine or you can't have a job.
Well, okay, then they had a giant sick out and they had to cancel 1,800 flights from Southwest Airlines.
Out of the 4,000.
Yeah, almost half.
That's how you do it, right?
I mean, you've heard the saying: follow the money, right?
You follow the money and right down to who's making these vaccines and these boosters.
Well, hit them where it counts, and that's in the wallet.
And that's what these employees did.
And so I'm grateful for that pushback by the Southwest employees.
Triple 8-727-B-E-C-K.
Now's the time for you to reduce your monthly bills and start saving more money.
And I need you to know that means 100%.
God only knows where things are going to go a year from now, six months from now, or even tomorrow.
I mean, things are going at an incredible rate right now.
We're at a point where home equity levels are red hot and mortgage rates are still competitively low.
And you're seeing much lower rates tied to things like personal loans and credit cards, which is why you need to take a minute and really consult your budget.
Better yet, you need to take a moment and let American Financing consult it.
What bills can be paid down to save significant money on interest?
What solutions are available to make a real difference in your finances?
These are questions that American Financing can answer for you.
And here's the most important thing.
You can trust them.
They're a mortgage lender, but they're not going to recommend something like a refinance unless it's going to help you out financially.
No tricks, no gimmicks, just financial help.

The Glenn Beck Program.
Pat Gray for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program, 888-727-BECK.
Let's go to Monty in Indiana.
Hey, Monty, you're on the Glimpse program.
Hey, I appreciate taking the call.
So, this thing about the supply chain, there's this lie that's being told for a long, long time, probably for over 20 years, that there's a shortage of truck drivers.
And the problem is not
getting enough drivers.
It's that fleets can't keep these guys.
They have a churn, as we call it.
Some of the turnover rates on these big carriers are over 100%.
So,
the FMCSA, yeah the fmcsa
uh according to their government there's over 400 000 new cdl licenses issued every year
and even like we've heard numbers like 50 000 there's a number of 50 000 a shortage right now or whatever um
even if you only take half of those new new cdls that are issued because say half of those are going to drive school buses and chauffeur limousines or whatever um there's still 200 000 so this this thing about the driver shortage, that the ATA has pushed this narrative for so long, and the problem is that these fleets can't, they can't, they get a new guy in there and he stays maybe a year, maybe some of them, not even a year.
So then they get another new guy, they train the guy six weeks, whatever, they put him out on the road and
they've told him so many stories about how much money he's going to make, how much.
you know, time he's going to have at home and all this, and none of that comes to fruition.
So the guys leave, they either go to another carrier or they leave leave the industry altogether.
And, you know, as far as like this backup of supplies at the ports, the ports, we have, I have a friend of mine that owns a company in Texas, in Houston, and they haul in and out of the port regularly.
And it is nothing for their guys to go in there and set for hours on end waiting on a container to be put on a chassis that they have.
The same thing.
You can go to any port.
I don't care if it's on the west coast or the east coast.
I know guys from both places, and the same thing is told, the amount of of waiting time that we spend waiting for these guys to do their job it's not on the truckers it's it's the trust me i've been in this business 43 years i've seen a lot of things a lot of stuff come and go but it is not on the truckers i can tell you that there are i mean there might be an isolated shortage someplace here or there where due to covet protocol say you heard the thing about we had a shortage of gasoline tanker drivers because a lot of those guys are like a local type job you know they come in they work a 12-hour shift or whatever.
But there's a possibility of some of that's going on.
But you're definitely running into a problem
at the ports, right?
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And
that's why all those ships are backed up in Los Angeles.
I don't know.
I've been seeing the same thing in Houston, which is what, the second or third largest port in America.
But Los Angeles has 90 ships or so completely backed up.
And apparently that's because they don't have anybody to unload the ships.
888, 727BECK, Pat Gray for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
I have so much, we have so much more free time these days.
Glenn certainly does, now that he doesn't have to stand completely still so that his dog Uno will eat.
And my dog won't eat her food without rough greens sprinkled on top of it.
So that makes a big difference.
Now, Glenn used to have to stand motionless
and then Uno might eat his food.
But now, when you sprinkle the rough greens on top of it, Uno gobbles it down.
And he's much more active again, as is my dog.
She's very puppy-like again, happier and healthier.
You can get a free bag of rough greens to try out for your dog for just a couple of days.
It's free.
All you have to pay is shipping.
Just go to roughgreens.com/slash back.
That's rufffgreens.com/slash back or 833-GLEN33.
Give it a try today.
What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This
is
the Glenback Program.
Got some good news about COVID infection rates.
We'll get to that as well as your phone calls coming up.
The Glenn Beck program.
Triple 88-727-BECK.
Officials are urging people to get vaccinated, of course, as more and more people are traveling again, I guess.
But the big picture for COVID-19 in the United States is looking a little bit brighter.
You wouldn't know that to listen to the news reports.
You wouldn't know that to listen to the Biden administration.
You would think that it's the worst it's ever been.
New infections and and hospitalizations are down, and they're down by a lot, actually.
With 56%, more than 56% of the U.S.
population fully vaccinated.
The number of people who are getting their first shot is trailing behind those who are getting their booster shots.
Wow.
Already more than 7 million fully vaccinated Americans have received boosters.
So they've already got their third shot.
And then pretty pretty soon we'll be hearing about people who've just gotten their fourth shot.
And then after that, we'll hear about the fifth.
And then every year, you'll have to get a booster shot.
That's my guess.
I think this is going to be just like the flu.
And maybe at the same time, you'll get another vaccination booster shot, and you'll get your flu shot at the same time.
And will companies enforce that kind of mandate too?
Yes.
Like, when's the last time you had to be COVID shot?
You've got to be current on your booster shots.
They're just going to keep lapping me.
No.
Fortunately, you're working in a place where they're not doing that, at least for now.
The leadership here.
Yeah, leadership here has been great.
So grateful.
Tyler's been awesome.
And unfortunately, there's so many people listening to this show right now who don't have bosses like that with that mindset.
And that's terrifying.
It is.
It is because how do you decide, okay, am I going to continue to feed my family Or do I have to go and get a shot I just don't want?
Well, why don't you want it?
There's nothing wrong with it.
It'll protect you.
Again, aren't you protected?
You're protected, right?
Well, yeah.
Then why do I have to get protected?
I have to be protected from you.
Well, that's what your shot is for, right?
And that's what your second shot was for.
And that's what your third shot was for.
That's how we were sold it, right?
Yes.
Well, we were sure, we were sold at just the first go-around.
I mean, all this stuff, like the booster thing, that's a new thing.
That's brand new.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But the U.S.
averaged 95,917 new cases a day over the week ending on Friday.
Now, that sounds like a lot, and it is.
But that's a 44% decline from the peak average in mid-September.
Yeah, I got September 13th.
I'm looking at it.
We've been on a steady downward slope ever since then.
So what was the number then?
Does it say?
Oh, gosh, my cursor.
Hang on.
Because,
I mean, 44%, so that's almost double.
You would have been at 150 or 160.
175.
175.
Was the seven-day average back on September 13th?
175,000 a day.
To what you said now.
Now it's 95,917.
That's a big drop.
The national number of people fighting the virus in hospitals is a 35% drop from last month.
So things are definitely trending in the right direction.
Now, I guess there's still pockets of increases, but
nationwide, it looks good.
The northeast is really going through a rough time right now.
The northeast?
What?
I thought that things were going great in the northeast.
Some of the most
vaccinated.
Vaccine compliant states.
Yeah.
Yeah, they got the vaccine passport.
So you can't go anywhere without the vaccine passport.
Well, see, what happened was a lot of people have not gotten vaccinated and they're just running rampant, just spreading it everywhere.
Bastards.
Right?
That's what I mean.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Killers, murderers.
Yeah.
Have we put them in jail yet?
Are we jailing people who are running around naked without their vaccination?
Yeah.
And don't be blaming the southern states and people from Texas that aren't getting vaccinated as far as the Northeast goes.
We're not visiting you.
Okay, we have no reason to go up there.
We don't want to see you.
And we don't have passports.
So that can't be from us.
So it's not us.
It's not us.
They'll probably try to tell you it is us because they're trying to pit us against each other.
But it's not us.
All right.
Let's go to Bill in Florida.
Hey, Bill.
You're on the Glenn Peck program.
How are you guys doing this morning?
Doing good.
Long time caller, first time listener.
I got to thinking, you should not be surprised if the government is finally telling the truth that this $3 trillion bill is going to cost nothing.
Because absolutely everything the government does costs nothing.
To them.
Right.
Right.
Because the taxpayers are paying for it all.
Right.
Yeah.
And the interesting thing about that.
They're telling the truth.
That is very true.
They're telling the truth.
Yeah, that's true.
Appreciate it.
Thanks, Bill.
unfortunately what they really mean is that it's free to all taxpayers except
the terrible evil rich ones who haven't been pulling their fair share
they're the only ones who are going to pay the only ones who are going to pay are the rich corporations and the rich corporation owners
those are the ones who are going to pay for this just the evil rich ones just the evil rich people, which, of course, you can't pay for it just from the richest Americans.
You can't, there's no way you're going to pay a $3.5 trillion debt with just the upper 1% of people.
There's no way.
You can't do it.
I think you forgot the earlier portion of the program where we've already discussed the solution, Pat.
And that was printing the trillion-dollar coins.
Yes.
Then you don't have to tax anybody.
Right, right.
You just make the coins.
They're just not talking about doing enough of these coins.
Because why would you stop at one?
If one's good, why isn't 100 way better?
100 trillion-dollar coins.
Wouldn't that put us in Easy Street for a really long time?
Like, yeah, breathing room.
You got breathing room.
I want to see the trillion-dollar coin on a commercial on TV so we can order it from home.
Just order your own trillion-dollar coin.
The U.S.
Mint.
Yeah.
Trillion-dollar coin.
Double eagle.
Each individually fired and minted with your own personalized certification of authenticity and it'll say right there on the coin one trillion yeah and you could put it on your man that that would be cool oh and why not it's in it's meaningless uh it's backed by nothing it's backed by air
and pixie dust
so
uh you might as well just send every American a trillion dollar coin that's literally what this government is running on these days is pixie dust well said.
Yes.
Tony in Colorado.
Hi, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
Hey, good morning.
Thank you for letting me speak up.
I'd like to ask why we don't just face down and take out the Goliath in the room when we talk about the supply chain shortages globally.
The docks
are now and have been for a long, long time controlled by unions and the movement of goods controlled and and moved out of those docks is controlled by unions, the strongest unions in the United States and in Europe, and the biggest contributors to the Democratic Party and the left.
Why don't we call them out for what they are?
Thank you.
I don't know, but that's a good thought.
Thanks, Tony.
Yeah.
I mean,
unions have been in control of the docks, what, since the 20s,
30s,
maybe before that, the 1880s-ish.
But I'm sure the unions are not to blame for this.
I'm sure if that came up, you'd have the administration jumping in and defending them at every turn.
Because you can't have that.
You can't have the unions being blamed for this.
That would just be wrong.
And some of the unions are still upset about some of these mandates, right?
So you got to play nice with them for right now.
The unions are upset about the mandates.
Yeah.
Well, nice job on the 1920s for
unions.
Yeah.
Okay.
Nice job.
By the way, Joe Biden's vaccine mandate
doesn't even exist, apparently.
Wow.
Now, he just said it, and they sent out a press release, and then everybody just thought, okay, well, we got this federal mandate from this executive order by Joe Biden.
Not so much.
According to a couple of Republicans, Ted Cruz being one, and who was the other one that was
Thomas Massey, are saying that there isn't even a vaccine mandate
in existence.
It was a press release.
He didn't actually do an executive order.
He just made the announcement, and then they sent out the press release.
And then everybody panicked and said, oh, my gosh.
How many companies have changed their policy based on that
tyrannical speech?
Many, many companies have.
And it's a mirage.
Biden's so-called vaccine mandate doesn't exist, at least not yet.
So far, all we have is his press conference and other such made-for-media huff-puffing, according to this article.
So no such rule, even claiming to be legally binding, has been issued yet.
Wow.
That's why nearly two dozen Republican attorneys general have now publicly voiced their opposition to the clearly unconstitutional and illegal mandate.
It's why they haven't filed suit against it, though, yet.
Because there's no mandate.
There's nothing to bring into court.
Right.
Now, when there is a mandate, then, of course,
these states will sue, but there isn't one yet.
Yeah, so right now, if you get terminated for not taking the shot,
then if you have a gripe, a legal gripe with your company for forcing that upon you, your company can't lean on some sort of federal statute or mandate because one does not exist.
Good times.
What a weird time we're in.
Isn't it just unbelievable?
Triple 8 900.
Oh, it's 888 727 B E C K.
Let's go to John in Tennessee.
John, hi, you're on the Glim Beck program with Pat Gray.
Hi, 25-year truck driver.
There's more trucks on the road today than there ever has been.
Manufacturing went to an as-needed component requirement.
So the trucks are delivering them as needed within three or four days of being put into the product, whether it's grocery, food, you know,
automatic, everything.
So they're using the trucks as a short-term storage.
There is no on-the-shelf storage for these manufacturers anymore.
The other thing, too, is during COVID and everything, everybody went to buy in online.
So all that stuff has to be moved by trucks before it can get to, you know, from point A to point B.
Right.
So, I mean,
if you, you guys know, you drive around in Texas, you see, you know, one truck after another after another going through Dallas and Fort Worth.
Yeah.
It's just, it's not, it's not enough drivers.
It's just that we've changed the way we do business.
So the trucks, the trucks deliver it, and then
where does it wind up?
All right.
I was in Grapevine, Texas here about a month ago, and I sat for four days with a loaded truck to offload.
They took product off my truck that they needed and left the rest of it on the truck until they needed it.
I sat there four days.
You sat there for four days at what?
The grocery store?
Four days.
At a grocery store.
It was at a clothing supply
building.
We deliver it to the building.
They deliver it to the store.
Wow.
And four days, and they only took the product off as they needed it.
So turns a lot of trucks out there with product in them, but they're not, you know, because of the mass ordering online and stuff, they can't get the product off the trucks fast enough to
the mail rooms and stuff to deliver it out.
Well, John, I have a quick question for you.
Whether you're sitting at a warehouse in Grapevine, Texas, or you're sitting at the port in Los Angeles, are you getting paid for your time of sitting there, or is it by load?
I get paid by the mile.
So, mine is basically by the mile.
So, when I'm sitting somewhere, I can
get paid, yeah, right.
Isn't that screwing up your company, too?
Isn't that kind of messing up their delivery schedule?
Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah, absolutely.
It's all it's the whole system, and sometimes I just get uh detention pay, sometimes not.
It just depends on who you're driving for and who you're delivering for.
That's crazy, wow.
So, when people are sitting there for four days and they're not getting paid, I'm not sure I'd continue to sit there.
But you do?
Just start pulling it out of my hand.
Well, yeah.
If you own your own trailer, what are you going to do?
You can't leave your trailer there.
And
the company refused, they refused to cross dock it.
So
I get paid a little bit each day for being there this time, but it's not as much as I make when I'm moving.
Yeah.
That's unbelievable.
It's abusive.
Appreciate it.
Thanks, John.
What a crazy situation.
And never thought we'd be in a situation like this in the United States of America.
Triple 8-727-B-E-C-K.
A more pack rate for Glenn coming up.
You know, the sooner you switch to Patriot Mobile, the sooner you can start paying less.
And I mean way less than what you're paying right now with your major mobile company.
And,
you know, we're always telling you about those major mobile companies that they donate a portion of the bill that you pay them.
So your money is going to, say, Planned Parenthood.
Patriot Mobile doesn't do that.
In fact, they donate to conservative causes.
Wouldn't you rather get behind something like that?
Patriot Mobile is the nation's only Christian mobile company, and it's on all the same towers as all the major carriers, so you get the same great service, although at half the cost.
Patriot Mobile has affordable, customizable plans for any family.
They donate a portion of your bill to conservative causes.
Now, that doesn't increase your bill.
They just take a portion of what they make and they donate it to great causes that you believe in.
Unlike the big mobile companies who are donating to things, again, like Planned Parenthood, make this switch today.

10 seconds, station ID.
This is fun.
Merriam-Webster's dictionary changed the definition of anti-vaxxer because,
you know, just saying that people who didn't want the vaccine wasn't enough.
It's also now, that's also a description for people, anyone who opposes regulations mandating the vaccine.
So even if you don't want the government to regulate and to mandate
something,
That makes you an anti-vaxxer.
Remember earlier in the program when we were talking about losing freedoms?
Where are you losing freedoms?
Well, I don't know.
The fact that I can't choose what I put inside my body or not.
Yeah.
My body, my choice.
But you don't hear that refrain much anymore, do you?
You don't.
My body, my choice.
And you would think this would apply to it way more because I'm not talking about another body inside of mine.
I'm not talking.
Of course, I never would be.
But for women, you're not talking about the other body inside of your body.
You're talking about just your body.
Wait a minute.
Did you just make a reference that men can't be pregnant?
I did.
I actually did, yeah.
Oh my.
Yeah.
I don't know that I can sit here much longer.
I know.
I'm sorry.
All hell's going to break loose now.
But absolutely.
What happened to personal autonomy?
How is that not a thing anymore?
Well, I guess you don't need a job.
Yeah.
Okay.
It's ridiculous.
It's asinine.
They don't really believe these things.
They don't really believe my body, my choice.
What they really really believe is, let me take this inconvenience from me if I, I don't want it.
I don't want it.
And I'm going to use it as a birth control method.
Oh, okay.
Well, why don't you just say that then?
My body, my choice.
Because they're just, they're not consistent.
They're hypocrites.
Let's go to Dan
in Maine.
Hey, Dan, you're on the Glenbeck program.
Hey, guys, thanks for taking my call.
Hey, I heard you guys talking about the Northeast being hit hard.
Well, I'm from Maine, and this morning
the news came out that we're on a seven-day downhill average by like 15 or 20 cases per day.
So,
I mean, we're as far northeast as you can get, and
we're on a downhill average just like everybody else.
Wow.
Is it New York then?
Maybe it's New York.
Well,
that's cool anyway.
Yeah.
All right.
Appreciate it.
Thanks a lot, Dan.
So, Maine on the downward slide.
Remember, it was Vermont that was the hotbed, and they were also the most vaccinated.
And just looking at Vermont real quick, they started to trend down, but for the past,
my gosh,
week now, they've been trending up again.
But remember, over 70% vaxxed, fully vaccined there in Vermont.
They're the most vaccinated
percentage-wise in the country, right?
Yes.
Still, 70% of Vermonters are fully vaccinated, I believe.
But again, like we're talking about.
And it's only 56% nationwide.
Right.
We discussed earlier how there's so many people from Texas and Mississippi and all these great unvacced states, Wyoming, that are just, we just keep going up to Vermont and spreading the disease.
It's an invasion.
Sure.
It's a COVID-19 invasion is what it is from the South.
Yeah.
Got to do something about it.
You know what they should do is build a wall
to keep Texans out of New York.
Because you know that's what it is.
Wait, so build the wall up there?
Yeah, build the wall up there now build the wall around us in texas let's just cut to the chase keep them down here let's do that uh that might that might happen sometime soon
uh i mean you keep hearing about this national divorce what if we split up the country into into sections okay we get montana and texas and texas and alaska okay utah indiana
Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana.
Wait.
You like Indiana?
Are you a big fan of Indiana?
Well, they're very conservative.
One of the most conservative states in the Union.
At least based on voting.
We get Florida.
We get Florida.
Oh, yeah.
We get Florida.
We got to have Florida.
But they can have California.
They can have New York.
They can have Vermont.
And let's see how you do with those places.
Okay.
This is the Glenn Back program.
So I don't want to rush you or anything, but if you haven't ordered a RECTEC yet, you need to do it soon.
What are you waiting for?
Have you not heard Glenn talk about how this is, I mean, one of the coolest features, I love this about RecTech is that you can do this from your cell phone.
That's so cool.
You can monitor it from inside when it's massively hot in Texas on the outside, or, you know, if you're in the north or whatever and it's starting to get cold, you can do all this, monitor it from inside.
I love that idea.
That's so awesome.
Plus, Thanksgiving's right around the corner.
This year can be perfect.
And you can make the perfect turkey on a RekTech grill.
Plus, you can still enjoy the outdoors.
You can football, family, friends.
Now's the time.
Whether you're smoking, grilling, or even baking, RekTech does it all.
Don't wait.
Get a RekTech, and you're going to come out looking like a master chef.
You can follow RekTech, R-E-C-T-E-Q, on all social media and sign up for their newsletter, too.
That's RekTech with a Q at the end.

Just for those who might be listening on podcasts or later on,
you don't know if it's morning, afternoon, night, could be any time.
It's this today.
Yeah, it's this today.
Exactly.
uh on saturday thank you for coming to the m1 event if you were able to make it it was a great time um a really cool venue at the
at the uh toyota music factory
which we we haven't had it at a place like that before usually we're in the banquet halls and there's tables set up but this was a more comfortable like couch arrangement oh wow everybody got to sit on couches and and uh and then bid on items and donate and thank you for everybody who donated because this is an important event.
This pays for all, you know, the administrative stuff.
The employees at M1,
for some reason, they have to feed their families.
And so
this does that.
And then after we take care of this, then all of the proceeds that you donate to things like, you know, the
Afghan relief and saving families and flying Christians out of the danger zones that they live in.
All of that money, every dollar, goes to what you donated it to do.
So that's why this is really important.
And thank you so much for supporting M1 if you were able to do that.
Appreciate that.
888-727-B-E-C-K.
Pat Gray for Glenn on the Glenbeck program.
Let's go to Jim in Maine.
Hey, Jim, you're on the Glenbeck program.
Yes.
Hi, it's Jim.
Listen, I was just
talking over with my wife, too, and she, I believe, she says what I said, she's a nurse.
She said that when kids, people used to always say that kids needed to catch the flu, needed to catch cold so they would have a natural immunity from just things like that in general.
Well, if they're wearing a mask,
what in the heck is going to happen to their immunity for that too?
The flu for children is more, far more deadly than it is
for COVID.
They're in more danger from flu than they are from COVID.
So they wear a mask.
What's going to happen then?
Well, yeah, appreciate it.
Thanks, Jim.
That's a good question.
What happens to our immune systems?
And our natural immunity, it's pretty much been proven, is far better than the vaccine.
It's far better.
Probably lasts a lot longer.
In fact,
people who caught
the SARS
pig flu, was it?
The pig flu?
Yeah, it was
SARS in 2003.
So SARS 2003, whether that was bird or swine or whatever it was, people who caught that then still had the antibodies.
Yeah, 17, 18 years later, absolutely.
And we're often protected from getting COVID-19 because, you know, it's a related illness.
So,
you know, compare that to getting a vaccine and then six months later, oh, time for a booster.
Well, wait, I'm fully vaccinated.
Yeah, but that doesn't last.
Wasn't the guy just saying that, you know, if they're wearing the mask and they aren't getting exposed, well, I mean, the mask isn't stopping anything,
but it's definitely building up.
We've discussed this on your show, Pat Gray Unleashed.
What is the mask catching that you're exhaling?
I mean, it's just sitting there.
It's so gross, man.
It is gross.
I'm telling you, if you are in med school right now, be studying the lungs.
Because I have a feeling that there's going to be some issues in the future.
Gonna be a necessary profession, even more so going forward.
It only makes sense.
We touch the mask with our hands.
Our hands are infected with stuff that we're, because we're touching things that are germy all the time.
And then it goes right to the mask.
You're moving it, fiddling with it, pulling it down to take a bite or whatever you're doing.
That mask is not then,
you know, sanitized.
So what other kinds of things are you getting?
And because we're being so babied here, locked down, shut out, socially distanced, then we're not being exposed to things that we're normally exposed to, and we build up immunity against all that stuff.
Yeah, but I kind of want the social distance stuff to stay in place.
I'm kind of okay with something.
I'm out of my space.
You know, I'm okay with that.
If we can hang on to one relic from the COVID era, it would be the
same thing.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
And I'm okay with the hand bump thing, too, instead of the handshake.
Yeah, that's okay.
I guess.
So wait, no.
Wait, you know how your word is your bond, you know, like Glenn always talks about a handshake deal.
Is it now a fist bump deal?
No, it's a fist bump deal, at least as far as I'm concerned.
Yeah,
Glenn may not feel that way.
I don't know, but he can tell you about that.
I mean, we bumped fists.
That is
good as my word.
I can hear Glenn saying this right now.
I'm all about that.
Yeah,
I'm with you.
So you stay on your side of the room.
And if we have to, we'll fist bump.
But that's, that's, that's where it ends.
You know what else would help to stay really healthy is if you cut out the small talk in the grocery store checkout line.
Totally okay with that.
The less exhaling, huh?
Yeah.
Just don't talk.
That's okay.
Just don't talk?
Yeah, just don't talk.
When, you know, when you're checking out my items and you're running them across the scan, you don't like this.
I don't want to hear, how's your day going so far?
I don't want to talk about that.
Do you ever answer honestly, though?
No.
Be like, man, it's really
a crappy day.
Let me tell you about it.
I woke up this morning.
I had diarrhea.
Yeah.
How far do you want me to go here?
Then you had to go into work with this guy named Keith.
You can't stand him.
You know, maybe that would stop the conversation pretty quickly.
I think it might, actually.
Yeah, you're kind of rolling the dice, though.
You are.
Because if they're
probably our interest, like they want to know.
Oh my gosh.
Oh, wow.
Well, do you have any KO pec date?
Yeah, let me show you what I use.
Did you get any of this rung up yet?
Because that'll stop it.
And then they go to the
PA announcer.
Customer needs assistance with KOPEC DAID for diarrhea in Aisle 12.
Can we get a price check on this diarrhea med thing?
I don't know which one is it.
Yeah.
So maybe we bit off a little more than we can chew there.
Let's go to Steve in New Mexico.
Hey, Steve, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
Hey, how are you doing, Dad?
Good.
Terrible.
Listen, Mike.
I know, right?
My question is very simply.
I have a son in the military, United States Navy, actually.
And of course, he's been given a lawful order, they're calling it, to take the vaccine.
He's refusing it under religious exemption.
My point is, as you had mentioned earlier, Senator Cruz and one other senator had said that
Biden hadn't actually put out an executive order officially.
So how does that work with the military?
It's a really good question.
That's a good question.
Yeah,
I don't know.
I'm guessing they're still threatening court-martial or whatever or dishonorable discharge.
Is that what they're doing with him?
That's exactly correct.
Well actually it's it's not a court martial at this point.
It's a captain's mask where he'll be put up um and what could be um a reduction in pay, uh fines, uh a few other things.
Yeah, it's kind of ridiculous.
Yeah.
And I know you guys are I know you guys are busy.
I just want to ask one quick question.
Yeah.
And this is asking for a friend.
Why are they do they keep saying that by getting the vaccine you can't transmit the virus to somebody else?
They never mentioned that.
That's ridiculous.
And even if you're vaccinated, you can still transmit the virus.
So why?
Why are they pushing the vaccine?
That's my point.
Yeah.
It's a good question.
I mean, as recently as this past week, we get a video of Joe Biden himself still saying
vaccinated can't transmit.
Remember that?
We got the.
Yeah, let's see that.
We got other variants.
It's all dangerous and obvious, but we're still not there.
We have to beat this thing.
So while I didn't race to do it right away, that's why I've had to move toward requirements that everyone get vaccinated where I had the authority to do that.
That wasn't my first instinct.
My administration is now requiring federal workers to be vaccinated.
We've also required federal contractors to be vaccinated.
If you have a contract with the federal government working for the federal government, you have to be vaccinated.
We're requiring active duty military to be vaccinated.
We're making sure health care workers are vaccinated because if you seek care at a health care facility, you should have the certainty that the people providing that care are protected from COVID and cannot spread it to you.
Wait.
What?
Okay.
So
the fact that they have a higher viral load after getting the vaccine, that means they're not going to spread it to me?
Yeah.
Hmm.
Okay.
We know that not to be true, actually.
I mean, they make false statements every stick of day, multiple times every day.
That's not going to be censored on YouTube or Facebook.
That's not going to be labeled misleading.
And you have to fill out some form and triplicate in order to watch the video.
How many click-throughs?
I hate it.
I hate what's going on, but it's going to get worse before it gets any better with YouTube and Google.
They've already said, you know, they're going to be not just the COVID-19 stuff anymore.
It's also into the climate change stuff.
So I guess, you know,
their arguments can't hold up, so they can't allow it to be heard.
They can't allow any dissent whatsoever
because there's no way they win this argument.
And the retired California registered nurse who stood up.
Is this at another school board meeting?
I'm not sure what
this might be a city council meeting, but she gets up and asks these important questions about why we're doing the things we're doing.
Clip seven on yours?
Cut number seven.
It's number, yeah, cut video seven.
Can I tell you something?
No, that's not it.
That's not the one.
I mean, this is still good news, though.
What was that one?
That was the
all across the country, parents are pushing back on these mask mandates, and that mom was sharing good news to her son, who was coming home from school, saying, we won in court today.
And, you know, we had because we played that video on your show this morning, and one of your viewers chimed in and made a great point.
Watch this video at the very end, the kids saying, Boy, that's gonna be weird when we go back to school.
We're not having to wear a mask.
Like, the new normal is taking root in our children.
This is sad.
Can I tell you something?
So,
there were some parents of Ventonville School, some of my friends,
who took the school to court.
Okay?
They took him to court saying they can't mandate masks.
And we won.
Look at that.
Wow.
I mean, this means a lot to the little.
This mom fought for her son.
You have tomorrow, baby.
You don't have to wear it.
Oh, it's going to be so weird.
Look how much he hates wearing the mask.
And then he's told he doesn't have to starting tomorrow.
And that's going to be weird because this is the new normal for him.
For these poor kids.
That's the new normal.
Starting tomorrow.
I mean, and the kid's just beside himself.
He's so happy that it doesn't have to wear the mask again.
But here's that registered nurse
asking important questions.
Why do the protected need to be protected from the unprotected by forcing the unprotected to use the protection that didn't protect the protected in the first place?
That is so great she's got the whole audience behind her
even though it's almost impossible to follow the logic because none of this stuff is logical no they still cheer triple eight seven two seven b e c k
i don't know about you but um when i drive down the road i like having the peace of mind that comes with knowing that my car is covered you can have that peace of mind too because if so if something goes wrong uh you're just not going to have to worry about it.
When things go wrong with my car, I mean, they don't do anything for $100 anymore.
There's no such thing as a $100
problem.
It's like, yeah, $15.
We start at about $1,500.
The diagnostic itself is more than that.
Yeah.
Look, you need
the new rubber on your windshield wiper.
That'll be $1,800.
Wait, we're talking about a windshield wiper?
Yeah.

You are listening to the Glenn Beck program.
Triple 8727-BECK, it's Pat Gray for Glenn on the Glen Beck program.
He's a little under the weather today.
Hopefully, be back here tomorrow.
You sure he's not out celebrating Indigenous Peoples' Day?
No, he may be.
It may be a ruse to celebrate Indigenous Peoples' Day.
Gotcha.
But there's another of the traditions and the history that we've changed.
And Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices.
We're going to have to change our conversation.
Conversation.
We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.
We're going to have to move
into a different way.
world.
It's a different place.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So we have.
So that's great.
Okay.
888-727-B-E-C-K.
Also, just
maybe a point of interest here: Bitcoin going through the roof again.
Where is Bitcoin now?
Yeah.
Because it had gone down to like 42,000.
It grew down to 29,000.
29,000.
Not that long ago.
And so now it's almost doubled since then, and it's up to 57,500 as of right now.
57,500 per coin.
Who was it that got in at
was it was the Winkle Dinkle twins, right?
Yeah, Winkle Dinkies.
There you go.
The same guys.
The Winklevoss that yeah, the Winkle Voss
that stole, they had Facebook stolen from them by Mark Zuckerberg, of course, but then they did some smart things like invested Bitcoin very early on.
Now they're worth something like 4 billion each.
Yeah, that'll do it.
Yeah.
So in April, Bitcoin was at 63,000.
Then it crashed all the way down in July.
It was down to 29,000.
And so now, less than three months later, it has doubled from that price and it's pushing 58,000 today.
Wow, that's interesting.
Just, it's an amazing ride with big Bitcoin.
Even when it went down to 29,000, though, it's still outrageous.
Still outrageous, especially compared to where it was last year.
Oh, man.
Triple 8-727-B-E-C-K.
BECK.
Final hour of the Glenn Beck program with Pat Gray and my producer Keith coming up in just a minute.
Biden administration once again proving that the buck stops anywhere but here.
We'll get into that.
Also, will Kyrie Irving play
any
home basketball games this year?
It'll be fascinating to find out that
and much more coming up in one minute.
Today's news is unfortunately a cautionary tale.
Andreas Bello Catholic University just concluded a study indicating that 75% of Venezuelans are living in extreme poverty.
75%.
95% of the country lives in general poverty.
Wow.
So 75% extreme, 95%, dad, just generally
poor.
Which, wow, that's amazing.
What's happened to them and so many other countries after their currency hyperinflated is heartbreaking and it's terrifying.
This is what happens when you allow corruption and leftism, but but those are basically one and the same.
But that's what happens when you allow them to get a stranglehold on
your economy and just keep squeezing.
It wasn't all that long ago.
Venezuela was not just one of the wealthiest countries in Central America, it was the wealthiest.
How long is it going to be before people are saying something like that about us?
Nobody is saying that this is going to happen tomorrow, but there are certainly parallels that should make you want to prepare ahead for you and your family.
Call Goldline today to find out how you can protect your portfolio from the excessive printing of our U.S.

Pack Ray for Glenn on the Glen Back program with producer Keith.
Jen Saki, we just saw this on the four-minute buzz a few minutes ago.
This is incredible that this continues to happen.
This is the spokesperson for the President of the United States.
And what was it he said a while ago?
The buck?
The buck stops
with me.
No.
He never accepts the buck stopping with him.
Has he ever said, yeah, that's on me?
I don't,
no, that's never happened.
But Saki was asked about, because they were expecting, was it 500,000 new jobs into the economy last month?
And instead, they came up with like 192,000-something.
Here's her answer.
What do you make of these really terrible polls?
Are they that he's doing something wrong?
Is it just the communication?
Or is it he's doing unpopular things that have to be done?
Or something else?
Sure.
Well, look, I would say that this is a really tough time in our country.
We're still battling COVID, and a lot of people thought we'd be through it, including us.
And we, because of the rise of the Delta variant, because of the fact that even though it was a vaccine that was approved under a Republican administration,
even though we now have full FDA approval, and even though it's widely available across the country, we still have a quarter of the country who have
been 20% of the country who decided not to get vaccinated.
No question that's having an impact.
Wow.
Okay, so there they are.
Once again, pitting Americans against Americans.
It's those damn unvaccinated people that are causing this situation.
If it wasn't for Donald Trump, who left office 10 months ago, and you unvaccinated idiots,
we'd be fine right now.
The numbers would be skyrocketing because we're geniuses.
Wow.
I mean,
how long can this continue before we're at each?
We're already at each other's throats half the time.
The rhetoric is already ridiculous and inflammatory, almost non-stop.
uh going on twitter you see the cesspool that that is and how americans treat each other uh there
we just we actually had someone wishing death on who was that was that the
oh that was the uh
that was a guy in lithuania that's right but the guy in lithuania was all the time was complaining about the fact that he can't go anywhere because he's unvaccinated and he doesn't want the vaccine.
So he can't, he said he can't participate in society, which is coming here, by the way.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And so people are actually wishing him death because of it.
Yeah.
He posted a thread on Twitter, which should serve as a cautionary tale as to where we're heading if we don't stop, just like you were mentioning, Kyrie Irving,
stop accepting this, this new normal of vaccine passports in order to participate in society.
Kyrie Irving is a superstar in the NBA.
And
he has just said,
I'm not being vaccinated.
No.
And there's a rule or an order in place.
I don't think they passed anything through the legislature, did they?
I think it's another executive order.
Yeah, exactly.
New York City, de Blasio.
Yep.
Through executive order, they're doing the vaccine passport.
So
he can't go to the basketball arena because he's not vaccinated.
So he can't play in his home games.
Guess they didn't see this curveball coming, huh?
Huh?
One of the biggest superstars in the NBA won't play in 41 games this year.
The reason people are going to see that team play.
I wonder if that's going to hold up.
I would guess no
because that's going to cost them dollars right there.
That's going to cost them dearly.
I would love to be eavesdropping on NBA front office calls right now.
Yeah, me too.
Me too.
To his credit, LeBron James, who I'm no fan of, but even he has said, look, I'm not going to demand that my teammates are vaccinated.
That's between them and their maker.
Yeah, people on the left are upset at him.
Yeah, they're really pissed.
Why aren't you a spokesperson?
You should be setting the example.
Tell your teammates to do this.
Back off.
Why aren't you trying to be a dictator?
Why aren't you trying to oppress your teammates?
Why aren't you taking away their will?
That's just wrong.
You should be forcing people because force, forcing people to do things against their will is good.
Hmm.
Hmm.
Yeah.
It seems to be,
to me, that's the exact opposite.
Force
is a tool of Satan.
So.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you were talking about the guy in Lithuania whose, you know, co-workers have wished them death.
He was just basically this impassioned Twitter thread where he was going through, here's what life is like with these vaccine passports.
Basically saying,
we can't work.
We're not getting paid.
We're not allowed in grocery stores.
We're having to buy food, like a Soviet-style economy on the black market.
My kids aren't allowed to go to a dentist.
This is what is happening.
Lithuania should serve as the warning for the rest of the world.
Isn't that interesting?
Because all these years we've been looking out for a device that precludes you from participating in society, in the economy.
What is the name of that?
There's four words in it, and I think it starts with mark.
Okay.
And I think it ends in beast.
I mean, I don't know.
And I think there's of the, of the, in between.
Mark of the beast.
You must have that mark in order to participate in society.
Seriously, how long until we have QR codes on our arms?
I don't, not that far.
I mean, that is not that far-fetched a question.
It's
not.
Look how far we've come in this short of time.
Hypothetically, it didn't seem like, what, a year ago we would even be having this discussion.
And we'd be trying to figure out, okay, I wonder what the mark of the beast is going to be, huh?
What are we thinking here?
Yeah, and I don't know that the vax passport is the mark of the beast, but it certainly has some similarities to what we understand about it.
Oh, right.
All of a sudden, it's like, wait a minute, now we have a contender.
Yeah.
Oh, boy.
Yeah.
Well, because how convenient would it be if you just put the mark, you know, I don't know, on your wrist, maybe in your forehead or something.
It's just a scan code, and you just scan your wrist or you scan your forehead.
And you say, I can go in the grocery store?
No.
And you can go in the grocery store.
I can go to NBA games.
Yeah.
You can play in the NBA game.
Just get that mark.
Can I
go to the dentist, too?
Yeah, you can go to the dentist.
But I can't do those if I don't get this.
No, you cannot.
No grocery store, so no food.
Nobody can come to your house because you won't get vaccinated.
Oh, wait.
So you can't have your groceries even delivered.
Oh, no.
We can't allow you to eat.
Okay?
We can't.
And of course.
I don't know that I can allow you to live where you're living because you're a menace to your neighbors.
Wait, where do I have to live?
We could find an island somewhere.
Oh, and wait, I'm eating.
Yeah, but not a nice one.
Talking about a nasty island where there's nothing to eat and it's not warm and beautiful.
Oh, no.
Are they going to put all of us in New Jersey?
Then we have ESPN host Sage Steele.
This broke last week that she's already issued the public apology, of course, because she had the unmitigated gall to criticize Disney's vaccine mandate
on a podcast.
So they've removed her from the air.
And I mean, I don't think she's coming back.
Are they going to allow her to ever come back?
Gosh.
This is the Disney Corporation.
I was just watching over the weekend.
Disney does these.
Well, right now they're celebrating their 50th anniversary of the opening of Disney World.
So they have a really kind of interesting
documentary on the opening of Walt Disney World in Florida.
And so they showed a lot of Walt Disney.
That man
must be spinning like a lathe in his grave.
He would be so infuriated over what's going on in his company right now.
He wouldn't want anything to do with the Disney of today.
This is just the opposite of everything he stood for.
Anyway, last week, Sage Steele from ESPN told former Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler on his podcast that she didn't want to get vaccinated against COVID-19, and she only did so because of the company's sick and scary mandate.
They didn't like that.
She said, I work for a company that mandates it, and I had until September 30th to get it done or I'm out.
I respect everyone's decision, I really do, but to mandate it is sick, and it's scary to me in many ways.
How dare you?
How dare you, Sage?
So then, of course, the company came down on her and she issued an apology the next day.
I know my recent comments created controversy for the company, and I apologize.
We're in the midst of an extremely challenging time that impacts all of us.
And it's more critical than ever that we communicate constructively and thoughtfully.
So, in other words, probably written by a suit.
And then she's like, sign right here, please.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
So then an accompanying statement from ESPN
did not indicate whether she faced corporate discipline, but of course she was taken off the air, so she did face corporate.
I mean, will she just be flat out fired soon?
I would guess so.
According to Front Office Sports, she was removed from being on the air last week because of her comments.
She also tested positive for COVID-19
and will be absent from Sports Center.
Wait a minute.
I thought she had the.
For at least a week.
She got the shot, right?
Yes.
Wait a minute.
Yeah, she did get the shot.
The president just told us.
And she got COVID anyway.
Oh, man.
She will also not be hosting, and this has got to kill her.
She will not be hosting the ESPNW
Women Plus Sports Summit, which takes place October 18th through the 20th.
That would be heartbreaking right there.
Wait.
If I can't attend the ESPNW
Women and Sports Summit,
and the COVID got her out of that?
Is life worth living?
Or is this a punishment?
Because that's almost worth getting COVID that you don't have to cover that event now.
Oh, no, shoot.
Oh, boy, really?
I'm sick, and I can't go cover that.
And hear about the NWNBA and, I don't know, women's soccer.
Please tell me that they didn't say.
Field hockey.
We're going to show that Sage Steele.
We're going to take away her access to the WNBA summit.
Yeah.
She's also facing controversy for comments she made on the podcast about former President Barack Obama's racial identity, which
sort of, when you listen to it,
it was, I think her comments were insightful.
She said,
you know, because he's biracial like she is.
Exactly.
White parent and a black parent.
She said, well, congratulations to the president.
That's his thing.
I think that's fascinating considering his black dad is nowhere to be found, right?
He left him when he was a baby.
So far, these are facts.
But his white mom and grandma raised him, but okay, you do you.
I'm going to do me.
Listen, I'm pretty sure my white mom was there when I was born, and my white family loves me as much as my black family.
And her point was, his mom was there the whole time.
His dad left him immediately.
But who does he identify with?
His dad, of course.
Dreams from my father.
Is that what it was called?
It's been a while since we've talked about that.
But you can't say that, I guess.
Even as a black woman, she still can't say that.
Wow.
And you're not even supposed to mention that Barack Obama is half white.
That's verboten.
Don't even, don't even go there.

Welcome.
Great to have you with us.
Thanks for being here.
Been hearing a lot about this reconciliation bill and what's being put into it.
The $3.5 trillion
reconciliation bill, it extends the child tax credit to anyone in the United States who provides an individual tax identification number, overturning a crucial safeguard against fraud.
Why would you want to safeguard against fraud?
Ah,
don't worry about it.
Federal law required a valid social security number to receive the cash transfer from the government.
The potential payout for illegal immigrants is massive, which is what they're trying to do.
For some reason, they want to give payments to non-citizens, to people who snuck into our country illegally,
with each family receiving a monthly payment of $250 to $300 per child.
Transfer well.
Yeah, it's great.
Pew Research Center found that about about 675,000 children are not eligible for a social security number, making the tax expansion for illegal aliens cost between $2 billion and $2.43 billion.
So that's just $2,430 million a year.
Doesn't even put a dent in that trillion-dollar coin we're currently doing.
Come on.
Just leave it there.
Don't worry about it.
And 800 other.
little things like this that we don't know about.
How many things have they sneaked into this
that we don't know a thing about?
How many pages was this bill?
Wasn't it like 2,400?
It was a lot.
2,400 pages, which nobody will ever read.
No one.
Democrats are trying to advance an amnesty provision into the budget reconciliation bill, too.
They're still trying it.
A process reserved for budgetary matters.
Congressional Democrats have argued that granting legal status to millions of illegals would add $139.6 billion to the budget deficit by 2032.
Oh, good.
The Senate parliamentarian ruled, of course, last month that they can't do this,
but they're still trying to do it anyway, because they're Democrats.
And that's what they do.
Consider that the value of the CTC
for an infant child is now $3,600 a year.
That alone represents 40%
of Colombia's per capita income and nearly 120% of Haiti's.
This is why countries with unconditional welfare benefits also tend to have relatively restrictive immigration laws, but we don't.
And there's what, 60,000 more Haitians on the way?
Yeah, that's right.
Yeah, and you are correct.
2,465 pages make up this bill.
I'd like to know if one single person has read even half of it.
Because I bet the answer is no.
Maybe Rand Paul has had one of his underlings go through it.
That's possible.
Other than that, I bet nobody has.

This is the Glenback Program.
October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and this year's theme is Do Your Part, Be Cyber Smart.
That's cool because it does.
Yeah, that's cool.
I like that.
Getting cyber smart starts with what's known as cyber hygiene, which is just basic habits that can help you keep you and your family protected from identity theft and scams and other online dangers.
Things like using strong passwords, setting up multi-factor authentication on your accounts, and of course, regular updating software on your devices.
It's important to understand how cybercrime and
identity theft are affecting our lives.
Every day we put our information at risk on the internet.
LifeLock though helps detect a wide range of identity theft threats and they'll send you an alert.
Plus, you have access to a dedicated restoration specialist if you become a victim.
Nobody can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but you can keep what's yours with LifeLock by Norton.

Triple 8-727-B-E-C-K
in Australia.
Man, they've been draconian with their COVID-19 things in Victoria, the Victorian state or province or
whatever they call it.
Yeah, there's several provinces there that are heavy-handed right now, but I guess that's what happens when you don't have guns in your society.
Yes, in part.
And when you've been a penal colony in the past, sometimes that comes back to you.
Come back to your roots.
Yes.
Because history does repeat itself.
And maybe that's what's happening here.
But there's a police officer who stood up to it.
She was doing an interview.
Crystal Mitchell is her name.
And here's what she said to the reporter she was talking to.
The consequences of me being here today is that I will be resigning from Victoria Police effectively at the end of this interview
because the consequences of me coming out publicly would be dismissal.
So I'm choosing to quit and I'm quitting because I can't remedy in my soul anymore the way in which my organisation that I love to work for is being used and the damage that it's causing in the reputation of Victoria Police and the damage that it's causing to the community.
My partner and I were out walking during our two hours of exercise on the weekend and there were police everywhere.
I live in the city
and
there was just police everywhere
doing their reassurance patrols, which they're not reassurance patrols.
You're not reassuring anybody in the community.
You're scaring people in the community that there's that many police out in the city
trying to stop mass gatherings or what have you.
The police don't want to look you in the eye.
You don't want to look the police in the eye.
There's this air of uncomfortability about it all.
All of my friends that are police officers that are working the front line and are suffering every day enforcing show directions that the vast majority or certainly a great majority don't believe in and don't want to enforce.
Wow.
How much different is that than the Taliban,
whatever they call it, the religious patrols, the people that are out in the street and they're looking for any violation of Sharia law and they come down on you hard when they find those violations.
Yeah.
So they're out on these reassurance patrols.
Reassurance patrols.
Finding people who aren't wearing a mask or have strayed too far away from home and they're cracking down on them.
And did you hear that?
She just referenced we were out doing our two hours of exercise.
Like, I think that was what you're allowed to be outside of your house.
I think that's what she was referring to there.
My gosh.
It's ridiculous.
This is in a Western civilization.
Western civilization.
Yeah.
And you kind of want to know, you know, maybe you could do some good from the inside.
You totally respect the fact that she's quitting.
It's like, how many good people are going to be left?
But how hard is that to make that decision?
That's your livelihood.
And she said she's doing what she loves.
It is so hard to take that principled stand.
I don't know how many people can do it.
Because if you have to have that income and you don't have, you know, a lot of opportunities elsewhere, what are you supposed to do?
Exactly.
I'm sure Australia is similar to the United States in that
people don't have a lot of money saved.
You don't have a lot of margin for error.
When the bills are due and the mortgage payment...
People live paycheck to paycheck.
Paycheck to paycheck.
Exactly.
And how many people are having to make this unnecessarily difficult decision?
Yeah, it's crazy.
Absolutely nuts.
So that's going on there.
and you think, well, that's Australia.
It's never.
I mean, we already have the vaccine passports in New York.
They've already clamped down in Los Angeles and New York on all of these things.
How long before that spreads?
Here's a dad serving school board members with papers,
with court papers, because they've overstepped their limits.
with mask mandates.
I love what he tells these people at a Pennsylvania school district.
Check this out.
What's
I have something to give you.
Security, would you do me a favor?
Would you please hand those forms for the boy members starting with Jarv?
Got a gift for him.
Yeah.
You purposely served a $200 million lawsuit with six complaints and violations under multiple events.
Your job is not to be concerned with the children's health.
You're not nurses.
You're not doctors.
We're not responsible for their
health organization.
Your only focus is on our children's education.
Yet the education system here is 50th in the state and you make almost more money than anybody else.
It is very clear that you have failed at doing that job.
This country is not alone.
It's time that we wake up and we're going to do lawsuit after lawsuit after lawsuit.
You can throw it out as much as you want, but we're going to keep this paperwork on your desk and keep a problem going until we get exactly what we want.
This is not a negotiation.
We will have our freedom of choice, And we're going to see you in court.
That's the way to handle this.
I mean, telling them what you expect.
Look, you are the people who answer to us.
We don't answer to you.
Now do what we're telling you to do and stop this madness.
And leave our kids alone.
But they won't.
The tragedy in all of this is the children.
I mean, we saw the exacerbation of the kid when he was
told that he wouldn't have to wear the mask anymore.
Yeah.
Amazing.
Finally, relief.
Just amazing.
888-900-3393.
No, it's 888-727-B-E-C-K.
You're in a lot of rooms in this building.
Yes.
Yes, I am.
But that's the number you can call with Pat Gray Unleashed when you listen tomorrow, right before this show.
Yeah.
When you listen live.
Or you can check it out anytime during the day or night,
wherever you get your podcast.
We make it easy for you.
Yes, we do.
We try.
Everywhere.
Let's go to Wyatt in Utah.
Hey, Wyatt, you're on the Glenn Beck program with Pat Gray.
Hello.
Hey.
Hi, Wyatt.
Wyatt, go ahead.
Just wanted to bring up the
point
that
with this school, I'm a school bus driver.
Okay.
And I sanitize the bus after every run.
I have to wear a respirator for the fumes
from the
disinfectant spray.
Wow.
So you're saying the spray that you're using in there is not exactly safe?
I get nosebleeds and sneezing fits.
Oh, jeez.
And chest congestion.
And it even showed up on a
test at the doctor's office.
It did show up on a chest?
X-ray or something?
No,
a chemical test.
Okay.
And you have so some of these chemicals are making it into your system.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
It's
basically a confined space.
Yeah.
And so since then, I'm wearing the respirator and opening the windows after I sanitize the bus to air out the bus for the next run.
But it just goes along with everything else.
It's
with the COVID mandate and
everything, the virus that's not even any
more virulent than the common cold
and all the division on the border and everything else.
This country is going through
what we've heard Glenn talk to us about for many years.
This is the perfect storm to take down a nation.
Yeah.
And all of the unintended consequences, like these chemicals that our kids are being subjected to when they get on the bus.
I mean,
you never would have thought of that necessarily before or, you know, a year ago.
Appreciate the call.
Thanks, Wyatt.
But it's time to start thinking about that stuff.
Well, the time is long past to start thinking about that.
But are you subjecting them to something that's going to eventually be even worse than COVID-19 if they were to get it?
I don't know, but maybe.
I mean, if the chemicals are that powerful that they're showing up in his medical tests and he's wearing a, didn't he say he was wearing a gas mask when he goes in there?
He's wearing some kind of protection?
A respirator.
Yeah.
Jeez.
And then the kids come in there and they're just breathing all that.
They're in the same space as he is.
Don't even worry about it.
With younger, less developed lungs.
Right.
Pulmonary.
Bizarre.
Karen in Pennsylvania.
Hi, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
Hey.
Hey.
I just had a quick story about, I have a 15-year-old daughter who's severely handicapped.
So if you know handicapped kids, they don't cover their mouth.
They don't know how to sneeze.
You know what I mean?
They cough all over your face.
So my daughter was sick about a week ago, two weeks ago.
I got sick.
I took her to get a test.
She tested positive for COVID with the rapid test.
And so I was 100% sure I had it.
She literally was coughing in my face for a week.
And I went and got a test.
I was negative.
I went and got the two-day test.
It was negative.
And I can't understand this deadly disease coughed right in my face.
I thought, okay, I'm going to get it over with.
I'm not vaccinated.
And not one doctor can tell me why she has it and I don't.
Are the rapid tests focused?
I mean,
I don't get it.
Have you taken her back to be retested and seeing two?
Yeah.
But I didn't yet because the test was like $100.
Oh.
I thought the testing was supposed to be free.
Aren't the tests free now?
Or apparently not, huh?
Well, they charge the insurance company $100, and the insurance company will only pay for it once every 10 days.
I might take her back, but I mean, at this point, I'd like someone to tell me why I didn't get it.
I don't want the vaccine.
I don't think I need the vaccine.
And I think the doctors, the two doctors I asked said to me, well, you probably have natural immunity.
So natural immunity is something, and I do take all the vitamins and stuff, but I was hoping to get it and get it over with.
You can also, I think
there's home versions of the test that you can get now for, I don't know, 20 bucks or something if you really wanted to test her.
I would really like to know if she had it.
Yeah, I bet.
Yeah, I would want to know, too.
All right.
Thanks a lot, Karen.
I recommend, you know, maybe a CVS or Walgreens.
You go there and check out the home test.
That's kind of the route you're hoping to go, right?
Have someone cough in your face and just give you COVID that way so you don't have to worry about the
other.
Yeah.
Not so much.
No.
Oh, no.
Okay.
No.
I don't really want to play around with it necessarily.
I'd rather not get it.
And so far, that's been the case.
And I've been in many situations where there's tons of people I don't know milling around.
Right.
But I think the thing that you have going for you that most people don't is you're just the image of health and physical specimen.
And so you have kind of
a natural
robust immunity from such a healthy body.
Yeah.
Not everybody is a donnis like yourself.
Right.
And so we have to like take precautions and stuff.
For the little people, yeah.
That's true.
All right.
Triple eight, seven, two, seven, B-E-C-K.
Let me tell you about a way to make your dog healthier and more active and
just like they were when they were a puppy.
Imagine if you had to live entirely on food that had little to no nutritional value every single day.
Now, as a person who
loves a lot of food that have little to no nutritional value, my first reaction, as well as Glenn's, might be, yeah, I jump at the chance.
Yeah, give me all the donuts I can possibly jam in my fat face.
But, you know, when you get scurvy after a week of that,
then you start to see the error of your ways.
But this is how our dogs typically live, when they eat that kibble food, that dry kibble food, which has had all of the nutrients baked out of it.
because they've been sterilized so they last on the grocery store shelf for up to three years.
Rough Rough greens isn't a dog food.
It's a dog food supplement.
You just sprinkle onto your dog's food and it contains the vitamins and minerals and omega oils that they need.
Basically all that stuff
that your wife probably hounds about, hounds you about trying to get into your diet.
This gets it into your dog's diet.
You can get a free bag of this to try out.
See if your dog likes it.
Mine certainly does.
I know Glenn's does.
Stew's does.
See if your dog will eat it and enjoy it by getting a free bag of rough greens sent to your house.
All you have to pay is shipping.
Go to roughgreens.com/slash back or call 833-Glenn33.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
Just an indication of how ridiculous things are in America right now.
We had
Tim, who's one of our listeners to my show.
They call themselves Patheads.
Patheads, yeah.
Pathead Tim, was on Amazon and noticed
some fun products that
you can enjoy and buy and protect your loved ones.
Right.
Your loved pets
can now get
a face mask,
at least for dogs.
I haven't seen this for cats, but
there's a, for those watching
TV right now, that's a real thing.
That's a dog in a mask.
A little doggy mask that you actually strap around and
heavy duty.
That dog means business.
You can get a mask that has a respirator.
I mean, do you love your pets
or not?
Right.
See?
And I don't know how much they want for this.
Gosh.
But it's worth it at.
Yeah, there's no, I mean, I don't care how much it costs.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'm glad to hear that.
Do you want your dog protected or not?
That's a new level.
I thought that was the Babylon B, but no, no, it's actually at Amazon.
It's real.
Oh, man.
And I guess that's not protecting your dog.
That's protecting other dogs from your dog.
Yeah, because be responsible.
If you're going to the dog park,
you want your dog to be masked up.
You roll up with your dog.
That dog's gonna get picked on by other dogs.
What's gonna happen?
Oh my goodness.
Let me see if I can get a power.
Yeah, you want your dog to be bullied.
Just put this mask on.
Uh-huh.
See what the other dogs do.
The respirator one is only nine.
No, no, the plain one is nine bucks.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
So, wow, that's cheap at 10 times the price.
Right, I don't know.
I'd pay 90.
I'd pay 900.
Yeah, to protect my dog, you bet.
Oh, the other one's only 10 bucks.
Huh?
Just for the respirator on it?
I'm going, I'm going to splurge.
I'm going to splurge.
You can't be too careful.
Hopefully, Glenn returns tomorrow here on the Glenn Beck program.
Thanks for being with us.
