The Glenback Program.

Hello, America, and welcome to the program.

It is

Is the sun, does it even work anymore?

Yes, it does.

Come out of your shelter.

You know, before I say that, I should warn you that Texas is just trying to kill everyone.

Wait until you hear the latest, the latest scientific editorial coming up in just a second.

Also, who said we couldn't trust Joe Manchin?

Well, I mean, we said it multiple times.

We said it, but

I guess there's a problem.

Joe Manchin, he's still going to stop the filibuster from being repealed.

But

we'll tell you about his but.

Well, not his butt, I don't interest.

We'll talk about that coming up in 60 seconds.

Glenn Beck program.

Yes, it is, and I'm Glenn Beck.

So if you're one of those people who live with pain, what would you give to get out of it?

Be out of it?

Most of the pain comes from inflammation in the joints and throughout the body.

Now,

if you're like,

I'd give, you know, $100,

call me.

I have a secret Glenn Beck bag of...

I like to call it relief pills.

So on Friday in the White House press conference,

Jen

Pasaki.

Come on, say it.

It's Saki.

No, it's not.

It's Pasaki.

I refuse.

I refuse.

The P has been, they've tried to silence the P in her family for far too long.

Who's with me?

Do not allow her and her family for generations to look down on the P and say silence.

Yeah, we need to use the verbiage of like the like trans activists when they just say like the pee exists.

Yeah.

The pee the pee exists, Jen.

Yeah.

So it's Jen Pasaki on this program.

Anyway, Jen Pasaki said that President Biden hasn't held a single solo press conference during his first 45 days in office because, quote, he's too busy with this historic crisis.

You know, it's weird is every week FDR gave a fireside chat.

I don't know if anybody's aware of that.

I mean, he gave interview.

That was kind of a historic crisis, too.

I mean, sure, it wasn't 0.07 infection rate

of a virus, but there was some global war, it can tend to be a big deal.

It could be a big deal.

Nazis.

He's dealing with Nazis.

That's what he's doing.

He's busy.

He's busier than FDR.

So

while he's too busy to talk about anything, Senator

Democratic Senator Joe Manchin from West Virginia, I am so glad we put all of our hopes and dreams into his bucket.

It appears that he has started to shift his views on the filibusters.

The filibuster.

Remember, he is not for ending the filibuster.

Here's what he said.

Listen.

To be clear, with 30 seconds left,

you would consider making it

harder to invoke the filibuster so that you just don't automatically have 60 votes that you need for any legislation.

I'd make it harder to get rid of the filibuster.

I'm supporting the filibuster.

I'm going to continue to support the filibuster.

I think it defines who we are as a Senate.

I'll make it harder to get rid of it, but it should be painful if you want to use it.

You should make sure the place works to where, okay, I want to work with you.

Wait, but what if you don't want to work with you?

I mean, it's not like the Republicans are saying

no to things like,

you know what?

We should make sure that

we just keep the economy running and

we get out of people's way.

No, we're not going to do that.

And we, you know, instead it's more like we're going to

build some concentration camps for the Japanese.

These Republicans won't work with us on anything.

Well, no,

we'll work on some things with you.

Not that one.

No.

I mean, it's not like they are talking about gun legislation,

the

$15 minimum wage.

We have real differences on that.

Now, I know the left would like to boil that down to we just hate people and want them to starve.

No, we think more people, especially young people, are going to be hurt by a $15 minimum wage.

It will destroy businesses.

The big businesses, you notice they're all for it.

Huh.

You know, they were all for a lot of things during the New Deal as well with FDR.

But they put all of their competition, all of the small guys, went out of business.

Hmm.

See, I don't understand why you don't trust Joe Manchin.

First of all, he said multiple times he's against that minimum wage going that high.

And remember, when he was elected, this is a man who took a gun and shot the cap and trade bill because he is so against those things.

And I know I believe him.

I know I believe that he's really for gun rights.

I know I believe he's against those imminent

climate bills that might hurt people in West Virginia.

Let me ask you something.

What's Joe Manchin's position on ESG, environmental, social justice, and governance standards that the banks are doing now?

Because the banks, because they've chosen to do this on their own, you know.

Right.

And strangely, all of them have chosen to do this on their own, and more and more businesses are choosing to do it on their own right after Biden was elected.

Isn't that weird?

Very strange.

Yeah.

So where is he on ESG?

Because that's going to put the coal companies out of business.

Haven't heard word one on that.

But maybe, maybe he's got a very, very detailed position on that.

I'm sure he does.

Well, they tend to be very, very specific.

Like, I'm going to make it more painful to use it.

Why should it be more painful to use?

Well, because he wants some of the things they're going to block.

That's why.

What he's advocating here is an approach which allows him to get all the things he wants and gives him an opportunity to be ultra powerful in debates like this past week, where he can manipulate the outlier sort of clauses in these rules.

He can play with the deadlines and play, like, for example, like they were like, well,

he lowered the unemployment benefit, the bonus that they put in the bill from $400 to $300.

Because, you know, this guy, Glenn, he's just hardcore when it comes to spending.

Oh, yeah.

So he was just like, you know, $400 to $300 and that's it.

Did you notice

also, though,

that included them extending it for a good amount of time, all the way till I believe it's September?

It's the end of August, yeah.

So what, how do you spend more money?

Would you say the extra $100 for a shorter period of time is

the person who's thrifty?

Or is it the person who's lowering it, yes, by $100, but then extending it for multiple weeks and months afterward?

I don't think I need to answer that question.

You're such a hate monger.

Such a hate monger.

I like the fact that they delved into how much are we going to give the American people,

but they didn't delve into how much are we giving the banks?

How much are we giving big businesses?

Yeah.

How much are we giving unions?

You know, the states.

The people, the people, I don't know.

I've never felt

that the government should

pay for anything.

You know, the safety net that

doesn't work in your community, or if you're in a very small community and you just don't have a

big enough safety net, the government should take care of those things.

But the government should not just be doling out money and

sending people checks.

Just lower our income taxes, lower our

taxes, our withholding taxes.

That's the way you can make an impact.

Don't send me a check.

And it really bothers me that they are taking all of the money and giving it to the big guys, and then they're arguing about a few hundred dollars for people that need the money because they did something unconstitutional.

They told the American people that they had to stay at home and not go and open their doors of their business every day.

They put people into this situation.

There was no argument about it.

We couldn't argue.

So wait a minute.

You made me lose my business and I have no recourse?

In all of your life, have you ever seen anything like this?

You should be able to sue.

You want reparations.

There's reparations.

That's something we can do right now because the people that were affected by it are alive today.

But you'll notice that they are doing reparations.

They're doing

slavery reparations.

Only black businesses will get the loans.

Remember, that's what Biden was saying.

We're not really worried about the white businesses.

We're going into the communities where it's black and Hispanic.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

You put everybody,

regardless of color, you put everybody into their house.

You guys sure love separating people based on skin color for a bunch of people who claim they're not racist.

Oh, yeah.

That's a fascinating.

I mean, to implement the amount of implied segregation they are currently attempting and then to say that you're not a racist is a fascinating development.

Well,

now they're going to grade school and they are separating

by

race now.

And the things that they want to do is, I mean, I just saw this article in the Wall Street Journal.

My awakening to the new orthodoxy began during this past summer of discontent.

Mid-June, a few weeks after George Floyd protests began, the head of Riverdale Country School in New York City, a private school my wife and I entrusted with the education of our two young children, sent a memo apologizing for unspecified past wrongs.

We have the responsibility to use our privilege to fight for change.

In September, at the first assembly of the year, instead of reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and singing American the Beautiful, long-standing school traditions, the head of the lower school announced that the theme of this year would be allyship.

He then played a video in which the school mascot told students ages 5 through 11 to check each other's words and actions.

The lower school head had earlier written that it's essential that parents and caregivers and educators acknowledge racial differences as opposed to their traditional colorblind stance and offered reading

recommendations such as Robin DiAngelo's White Fragility.

Families at Riverdale are encouraged to join school-sponsored affinity groups to bond with people from their ethnicity or skin color.

One is simply called POC, parents of color.

Whites need not apply.

At this point in the story, perhaps lived experiences become relevant.

I'm half Mexican

and I think it's Yaqui, indigenous tribe native to the U.S.-Mexican border region.

I'm also half-Jewish.

I spent the first year of my life in a commune in Berkeley, California.

Growing up, I was aware that I had darker skin than my mother and my classmates, but I never was taught to define my identity by the color of my skin.

My mixed background and ancestry made me feel

nothing other than feeling like a typical American.

My wife came to the U.S.

as a refugee from the former Soviet Union.

Listen to this.

She spent the first five years of her life in an intolerant society where her group identity as a Jew was stamped on her passport.

In school, she was taught, caught, taught to keep tabs on friends and family.

And after one particularly effective lesson, she was inspired to turn on her own father and turn him in

to the local police for crimes against the state.

Fortunately, no harm came of it, but suffice to say, we're both a little allergic to forced conformity, especially when young, impressionable children are trained to obsess over racial differences.

Be on the lookout for this.

So he writes about what his school is doing and how he is standing up.

He doesn't sound exactly like he is a conservative.

Maybe he is, but he grew up in a commune in Berkeley, California.

People,

I would like to know,

I'd like to know what the difference is between putting everybody in these categories and separating and keeping everybody segregated.

Does anybody remember what segregation was?

Does anybody remember how bad that was?

How is it we're going back to this and everybody is fine?

Can you pull up the picture real quick and then we'll take a quick break?

Pull up the picture of the grocery store in New York.

Have you seen this?

It's incredible.

This is a grocery store in New York on the shelves.

All of the, you know, where they have the prices on the shelves of the grocery stores, they have the price, and then they say black-owned, Hispanic-owned.

How can people think this is a good idea?

I am fascinated by it.

This idea that you should choose the food you eat based on the skin color of the owner of the company.

That is the most important thing.

Just like you to

It's just like you to say that.

I'm just pointing these all out for the record.

Someday they'll be played in court at your prosecution, and I'm going to say,

look at it, look at what I said.

It's just like you, Mr.

Whitey White White.

Not judging people by their skin color is a hill unworthy.

That's what a white man would say.

This is so you can help those struggling businesses.

I want to help struggling businesses, but I'm not going to pick them based on skin color.

I'm going to pick them based on merit.

Wow.

Yeah, that's the society I want to live in.

And if you don't want to live in it and you think that's the wrong society, sorry.

Suck it.

I hate to break it to you.

I'm not changing my opinion on this.

I am not going to judge people and make decisions based on skin color.

No.

Not going to happen.

Not going to do it.

You're not going to turn me around on this one.

I am not making decisions based on skin color.

For my whole life, I thought that was universally accepted as the correct thing to do.

But apparently now it is not.

So is that your line?

I'm not crossing it.

I don't know if it's good, good, good.

I'm not crossing that line.

I am, I'm with you 100%.

But now let's talk about what that means in 60 seconds.

No, I don't want to do that.

They're just staying right here.

Right.

I know.

It's great to make that bold declaration, but now what does it mean?

Timeshare termination team is there.

You made an honest mistake.

I mean, you know, it was far, far, far, far, far, far good to be true.

And those words were written on every single slide of the Timeshare PowerPoint presentation you sat through.

Even though,

you know, you probably should have been getting up and getting out.

You wanted to believe it,

and they made a good case at the time.

Here's the thing.

They've done everything but take your blood, and it's not what they promised, most likely.

Have you used it in the last year?

Have you been able to get the place that you wanted and you were promised?

Or have you had to sacrifice and be bumped down a bit?

Call timeshare termination team.

Get the process started.

Even if it's just that it's too expensive now, you can legally get out of your timeshare and any good place is going to let you out of your timeshare.

Don't keep putting it off and getting stuck with another year of timeshare that you just just won't use.

So now with ESGs coming in

and banks now saying that they're going to score you based on your environmental footprint.

I mean, you were over at the house yesterday and we were talking about solar panels.

I mean,

we're lucky enough to be able to afford solar panels, but if you are just buying electricity off the grid, in a few years, you're not going to be able

you're not going to be able to get that loan.

You're not going to be able to buy that house if it doesn't have solar panels or you're not planning on putting some sort of alternative energy into it.

You're going to have to do it.

Otherwise, the banks won't give you a loan because you'll have a low ESG score.

That's a bizarre world you describe here.

I know.

And it is seemingly very well documented.

Yeah, and

that's a lot of TV show on Blaze TV.

It's amazing to me because the S is social justice.

So if you're against critical race theory, if you're against

buying things based on color,

still you're part of the problem.

You'll have a low ESG score.

Oh, no.

I am going to have a low.

Look, my ESG score is going to suck.

Oh, no.

My ESG score is going to be like my physics score back in high school.

It's not going to be good.

Like, I'm just,

it's not going to be good.

Because even if I have solar panels, I say too many things that are against the ESG mantra.

I know.

And then that will be factored in, I'm sure.

Oh, it sure will.

It sure will.

So

you have to make up your mind where your line is and what it means.

This is the Glenbach program.

It's great when you run across a product, especially one that you use every day, that perfectly balances reasonable cost with superior design.

And when you put a set of Raycon earbuds in your ears and you give them a listen, let me assure you,

you're going to think they're practically giving them away.

The sound quality is great.

They're just as good as all the high-end competitors like Apple, but they cost about half of what Apple charges.

Whether you're looking for something to put a good tune in with your ears or, you know, or when you're supposed to be paying attention to a Zoom meeting, or God forbid, you're the type of person that goes out jogging, you just want to hear something great and you don't want them falling out of your ears all the time.

Get Raycon, they're the best.

We're so glad that you're here.

Pat Gray has joined us.

Hello, Pat.

Hello, Glenn.

Pat Gray, of course, from the podcast Pat Gray Unleashed, where

you can listen to him every day, either on Blaze Radio Network live before this program.

I just came from there.

I just came from there.

Wow.

Yeah, it's quite a commute from my studio to yours.

What a journey it's been.

So, Pat, what do you have today?

I've got some mask Nazis that they're pretty much showing up everywhere.

Really?

Mask Nazis.

Yeah.

This was an interesting one, I thought.

At a drive-through location, the woman wasn't wearing wearing a mask.

And so, here's

what happened.

Hi.

You have a mask?

No, I don't.

I can give you one.

You can give me one?

I can give you one.

I need you to wear a mask.

So you can hand me a mask?

I can hand you one, yeah.

But you can't hand me the drink without a mask?

You've got to wear a mask.

How does that make any sense?

You've got to wear a mask.

That's what, that's what I...

I just need you to wear a mask.

Do you mind?

Well, if you can hand me a mask, why can't you just hand me the drink?

I can hand you the mask.

All right.

So he can hand me a mask, but he can't hand me my drink.

Makes perfect sense, right?

Can you imagine they're trying to tell us in our cars now that we have to wear a mask to be served?

Well, why won't you listen to the authorities?

Why won't you listen to the

science?

Yeah, follow the science and listen to the authorities that are working the drive-through window right at your local fast food place.

Because who knows better?

Right.

Exactly right.

A fast food place.

They're on the front line.

Drive-through person.

Right.

I do worry a little bit about the stock of Google, though.

If masks go away, there will be no content on YouTube.

All content on YouTube is related to masks.

It's even like every one of these mask conferences happens to happen when someone is pointing a phone at themselves, which is a really amazing coincidence.

I don't know if there's more anger that comes into these or what.

She probably went through before or had a friend go through

record this time.

Yes.

It is a completely ridiculous standard.

It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

I need you to wear the mask.

But I need you to wear it.

I can hand it to you.

I can hand it to you, but you need to wear it.

And at some level, you feel like kind of bad for the employee who obviously didn't come up with a policy.

No, he doesn't say that's policy.

He didn't say that's company policy.

Even if it is company policy, people wear the mask.

Even if it is company policy, it's ridiculous.

And I'm sorry,

let's not teach people just to follow orders.

No, but if you want to keep your job at a restaurant that has the policy,

if you want to keep your job, I understand that.

You know, but there also is something to be said on we should probably put this, pull this weed out by its roots.

When something makes no sense whatsoever,

you should probably not do it.

When you're trampling on people's rights, and it makes no sense.

As a person who may or may not go through the Taco Bell drive-thru 14 times a week, I've noticed they have a policy, at least at the one, the several that I frequent, that they put the bag in a bin to hand to me.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Which is like, you've touched the bag to put it in the bin.

And then you're sliding the bin out so that I have to grab the bag, the same bag you touched,

with my hands and pull it out of the bin.

But you're not touching them.

Yes,

I guess.

I've never touched a drive-through employee.

I don't know.

We think I have Andrew Cuomo.

I don't know.

I can give it to you, but you can't give them the COVID.

That would be bad.

They can give it to you.

Yes, but you can't reciprocate.

Yes.

But how would I give it to them?

In a normal, no, they've made it so you can't.

No, I know.

In a normal drive-through transaction, how would I give them COVID?

Well, assuming you're wearing a mask.

I'm giving them a credit card.

Assuming Assuming you're wearing a mask.

You are wearing a mask.

No, absolutely not.

Oh, my gosh.

You should ask.

They can hand you a mask.

Stu, you know what?

You're a bad person.

I'm just a bad person.

Thank you.

I just decided I don't like you.

That summarizes it pretty well.

It does.

It does.

But I could help if, you know, maybe you don't want to wear a full mask.

What about wearing a nosy?

Have you seen the nosy?

Oh my gosh, these are so stupid.

These are so great.

Wait, I thought you were going to say great.

These are so great.

These are great.

Because look what it does.

They're.

i mean it's a

it's a little teeny device that fits all over only your nose and it acts as a hepa filter and a carbon filter

and if you if you're watching on tv you you can see just how stupid they look on people so just based on that i'm gonna say I'm a pass on the nosy but you know what these cost no 90

no 90 bucks for a nosy it can't be real is it real i i think so it looks so ridiculous it looks so ridiculous um let me tell you you know what it looks like what do you remember the opera the nose oh my gosh that i went to yeah it looks just like the nose and the nose was the was the i don't even know what that damn opera was about i my daughter was like let's go to those operas It's getting great reviews.

And I'm like, no, not another opera.

She's like, it's going to be great fun.

I'm like, no, it's not.

It's really not.

And we went and we mocked it the whole time.

People were very angry with us, but we mocked it the whole time.

It was a giant nose with feet and it looked like the nosey.

Gosh.

It was a nose with feet.

Yeah, and it sang.

I don't even know what it was because it was in another language, but it was this nose that would come out and it would walk around the stage and lie and lie my nose.

and you're like okay whatever and i'm convinced i'm convinced that that opera was just someone saying watch how stupid these opera people are

they'll buy this

and then they'll all flock to it and pay all kinds of money to watch the nose

And I think that's what the nosy is.

I think that is somebody saying, look how stupid everyone has become.

They will wear these.

And they'll pay $90 a piece for them.

So.

I mean, I wonder if you could actually buy them.

Are they a legitimate product?

Go to.

Yeah,

we went to the website.

Did you buy any?

No.

Oh, I think we got to buy it.

We got to buy one.

We've got to buy them.

We got to buy one.

That would be a fun show to do a show with the nosy.

And then let's buy three of them.

Okay.

One for you,

one for, I don't want the white one.

Whatever else colors they have, I just don't want a white one.

I want a black one.

I want a black one.

Because I identify

as a person with a black nose.

If they have a brown one, because my nose is about the entirety of my Native American ancestry.

I have more Native American ancestry than

Elizabeth Warren.

Yeah.

So I could wear a brown nose

or a red nose.

It does seem to be a Kickstarter.

So maybe not actually available to purchase.

If you put your money into that Kickstarter,

those people are probably in Russia.

Only 217 backers.

Yeah, really?

Which is not good.

Considering the amount of press it's received, that is not a good number.

Wow.

Well, it's going to do better now because everybody's always upgraded it.

You know what?

If you could put glasses and black furry eyebrows above the glasses,

Let me give you this.

This is from the Washington Post.

This is an editorial.

Living in Dallas, Texas right now feels like an exercise in survival.

Wow.

Oh, yeah.

Doesn't it?

For sure.

It really does.

Doesn't it?

At a Mexican restaurant in Lubbock this week,

she's living in Dallas.

Governor Greg Abbott.

No, he was

Governor Greg Abbott proclaimed that he would issue an executive order to open Texas up 100% starting next week, including, as he told a cheering crowd, ending the statewide mask mandate.

People and businesses don't need the state telling them how to operate, he said.

It was ironic that Abbott made his announcements on Texas Independence Day.

Was it?

Was that ironic?

Was it?

I mean, it is.

I mean, he's saying that we can be independent and we don't have to have the government telling us everything.

So it was actually kind of appropriate, more than ironic, for many of us Texans,

that what we desperately need is to be free from a GOP leadership that has put our safety last at every turn since this pandemic began.

Abbott's decision to lift occupancy limits on businesses and other restrictions is reckless and premature.

So

I went to a restaurant on Friday and I was out with a bunch of friends and my wife just gave me the dirtiest look.

She was already there.

And I walked all the way through the restaurant

saying with my mask on, I mask so I'm safe.

I masked so I'm safe.

I masked so I'm safe.

I masked so I'm safe.

I masked so I'm safe.

Then I pulled the chair out.

I mask so I'm safe.

I sat down.

I don't need the mask anymore because there are no germs at this level.

Yeah,

right.

I mean, nuts.

COVID is a hype thing.

That's why no little people have COVID.

Kids don't get COVID because it all floats above you.

If you're under

4'3,

you can't get COVID.

Right.

So the Texas GOP, this, according to the Washington Post, the Texas GOP's necropolitics,

meaning politics of death, have been on full display during this pandemic year.

Last March, Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick said grandparents in Texas would be willing to sacrifice their lives for the sake of the state's economy.

Yeah, I said that too.

When Abbott reopened the state in May, the move quickly resulted in a spike of cases, and he was forced to backtrack.

I've never backtracked on any of that.

I believe that people my age are perfectly willing to go in to work.

Not everybody, not everybody, but there's a lot of us that were like, uh-huh, yeah, open it back up.

Now Texas has thrust Texans back into the reopened rodeo show.

So here we go again.

Abbott impressed on his listeners that the end of the mass mandates does not end personal responsibility.

But what of the responsibility of government?

What have that?

What have that?

The responsibility to not tell us what to do in every aspect of our lives?

Yeah.

You know, the responsibility of the government really ends on the rights and responsibilities of the citizen.

Yeah.

When they interfere with the rights of the citizen, the government has no place there.

This guy is making the argument that, yes, I do need government to tell me whether or not I should wear a mask.

I'm not smart enough to figure that out.

No, no, no, no.

He is.

He is and his friends, but everybody else in Texas are too stupid to do it.

Yeah.

So you might have a, I don't know, an ego issue.

I'm just saying that if you think that you're the smart one and you pay attention to science, I would like to point out a couple of real quick, a couple of things about science.

First of all,

this is latest from the CDC.

Mask mandates and restaurant restrictions have very small impact on coronavirus.

Japan, their supercomputer, just has shown that doubling masks offers little to no help.

Just

if you're following the science, you should read those articles and maybe put the pin down

when you're writing to the Washington Post.

Although I don't know if anybody actually exists at the Washington Post except people, members of the DNC with the with the headlines that they wrote about Biden this weekend.

Biden may be working at the Washington Post.

That's why he doesn't have time for press conferences.

Thank you, Pat.

All right, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

In October of 2020,

that's last October.

Miami-based art collector Pablo Rodriguez Fragile,

must be from France spent almost $67,000 on a 10-second video artwork that he could have watched online for free

last week.

He sold it for $6.6 million.

What?

The video by digital artist Beeple, whose real name is Mike Winkleman, was authenticated by blockchain, which serves as a digital signature to verify who owns this digital artwork and that it is original digital artwork.

This is a new type of digital asset known as a non-fungible token or NFT that has exploded in popularity during the pandemic as enthusiasts and investors scramble to spend enormous sums of money on items that exist only online.

I don't think I get this.

Other than this sounds like the biggest scam of all time.

You know, have you seen the people that are they're buying artwork, but you're buying a share of the artwork?

Have you seen that?

No.

Yeah, they're now starting to sell artwork and they're asking you to invest and you can buy $250 worth of the Mona Lisa.

Or whatever artwork that is up for sale.

Mona Lisa is usually not up for sale, but you can buy these and it's a way for people that want the artwork.

They'll hold it.

They'll hold it for you.

They'll hold it for you.

It's your time-sharing art.

Your time-sharing art.

You never actually get to see it yourself.

You just kind of own it.

And if it goes up, you'll get a percentage of the.

I mean, we are finding ways to scam people out of their money every single day.

And this

NFT sounds just like that.

We're going to go to Jeff Brown, our technology expert.

He has a lot to say about this.

Coming up.

This is the Glenback Program.

The Glenback Program.

Hello, America.

This is the Glenback Program, and it is Monday.

Want to talk to you a little bit about the coming inflation that is right around the corner.

It looks like the economy is beginning to pick up, and we are flooding the market with dollars.

And when people start spending those dollars, that's when inflation hits, and it could be quite bad this time.

Now, maybe not.

Keep your fingers crossed, but eventually it does come.

So, what do you do

to prepare for

a collapse of currency or really high inflation?

We're going to begin there in 60 seconds.

The Glenn Beck Program.

Let me talk to you a little bit about Relief Factor.

Relief Factor is

the group of people that

really helped Diane and I get out of pain.

Diane lives in California.

A lot of people who are in pain for different reasons and different parts of the body that Relief Factor can't help that pain in your...

But if you live in California, you might be in pain.

She was one of those active sorts of people like to get up and go exercise.

And, you you know, I live in California because we can surf and we can go into the mountains and ski.

And I'm like, yeah, I just like looking at both of those things.

But

she's been spending more and more time in her living room chair because the aches and pains she developed over the years were just getting worse and worse all the time.

She finally decided to try Relief Factor.

In less than a week, Diane said, less than a week.

She was up and out and she walks four to five miles again a day.

Sorry about that.

Diane got her life back and so can you.

It's Relief Factor at relief factor.com, relief factor.com or call 800-500-8384, 800-500-8384.

It's relief factor.com.

So the old saying is what goes up must come down,

and that is with inflation as well.

as you just keep increasing the money supply

the way we have we've we've printed 26 percent more dollars in the last year and introduced them into the system in the last 12 months that no in no other year except 1944

did the United States of America do that

and there were things to invest in in 1944.

We were building the nuclear bombs.

We were building airplanes.

We were building factories.

And we needed to spend the money.

We did it and then we pulled that money all back in.

This kind of the amount of money that we now have in the system, we've never had anything close to this out in the system.

And when you print money, it's bad unless there's what's called no velocity.

Velocity just means is that bill being spent?

So somebody gets a loan from the bank, they build a factory,

those dollars that they got from the bank, they pay to mechanics or a contractor.

The contractor pays for the structure and pays the electricians.

The electricians take that and they buy groceries and then they take some of it and they spend it at a movie theater.

Velocity is how many times has that dollar bill been spent before it goes back to the bank?

We have very low velocity right now, and people are looking for places to put their money.

At least

people, I guess, who have just a ton of money, because I don't even understand this new,

sounds to me like a scam, but I wanted to get Jeff Brown on the phone.

Hi, Jeff.

Good morning, Glenn.

Jeff is the founder and chief investment analyst at Brownstone Research and editor of The Bleeding Edge.

He's a bigwig and high-tech.

Tell me what NFTs are.

Okay, so

NFTs are non-fungible tokens, and probably the simplest place to start is to understand what fungible means, because it's really not a word that we use on a day-to-day basis.

Let's take the U.S.

dollar.

If you wanted to borrow from me a $100 bill

and then you wanted to pay me back, you wouldn't have to pay me back with exactly the same $100 bill that I gave you, right?

$100 bill is equal to $100 bill.

They're completely fungible.

They're interchangeable.

They're even divisible.

And so that's the concept of fungibility.

A non-fungible object

is

something that isn't divisible and can't be exchanged for just something else.

A simple example would be

your website, Glenback.com or theblaze.com.

These are actually non-fungible assets.

They're not interchangeable with another website at all.

So, like a stamp would be fungible, but a collector's stamp with the upside-down airplane, that's non-fungible.

As long as there's only one of them.

Okay.

And that's the nuance.

Okay.

So NFTs, non-fungible tokens, every single token is unique in its own right.

There's nothing else like it, nor can there be.

And so let me give you the start of this story, and you explain this.

October 2020, just a few months ago, Miami-based art collector Pablo Rodriguez Frail spent almost $67,000 online on a 10-second video artwork that he could have watched for free online.

Last week, he sold it for $6.6 million.

That sounds crazy.

Can you?

And it is.

It is crazy.

Okay.

But, but, it's only crazy when we kind of

get sucked into the concept of, okay, this was a digital piece of art.

But if we think about the value of of Picasso,

those have sold for $6.6 million.

And

what's happening right now in the non-fungible token space, the most popular

areas of

non-fungible tokens right now are in collectibles.

For example,

NBA basketball, kind of like trading cards.

We have artwork, digital artwork, which can be static.

So just an image or video clips are are very popular and if we kind of understand that in 2020 was a breakout year it's really when the concept of NFTs became very well known in in the technology industry about two quarters of a billion dollars worth of transactions took place last year but we're going to have a multi-billion dollar year this year and it's because people see the the art and collectibles industry shifting from physical objects, physical goods, to digital assets and each one being unique and individual and rare.

Okay, so wait a minute.

I can understand if it's an artwork, because then you would buy the rights to print it and sell it, right?

And you can.

That's precisely the point.

Pablo bought the rights to that piece of art.

Right.

And he could sell it for $6.6 million because it was a one-of-a-kind.

So then tell me exactly what

you would be buying a clip online of like sports.

Because I understand that people are buying the NBA is into this.

Are they selling the clips of sports games?

And

could you not just get that online?

Or would that clip of that game belong to you?

And if NBC wanted to play it, they would have to pay you for it?

That's right.

So, I mean, the NBA has been incredibly progressive.

Again, last year,

there was only a quarter of a billion dollars worth of revenue.

To date,

NBA Top Shot has literally had the highest level of transaction volume,

more than 300 million.

Very unusual that you'd have kind of a legacy industry like NBA being very aggressive in a very progressive space and monetizing their assets.

And so they can carve out, you know, we can imagine how many hundreds of thousands of hours of video that they have the digital rights to.

They can cut these things up and carve them up and create interactive trading cards, each and every one of which is a one-of-a-kind and confer the rights contractually

onto a blockchain.

It's like transferring of intellectual property or a patent to anyone that buys it, and then they own it.

And you're exactly right.

The owner of

the trading card or the clip

could license it out

on a one-off basis, on a continuous basis, or they can just sell it to

another individual who's willing to pay more for the asset.

So does this sound to you a little like Pets.com?

You know,

it doesn't.

And I'll tell you why, because it's inevitable, especially as I look at

kids that are growing up today,

really

kids

as young as eight, all the way up to people in their 20s and 30s, they just don't value physical assets the same way that they value digital assets.

And if we think about even video games, most people don't know this, but the video game industry is larger than the entire motion picture industry.

And one of the biggest revenue sources in video games is virtual goods.

So people are buying a magical sword or a shield or

my son took some of his money last summer after he was working and he was like, I want to buy this sword, Dad.

And I'm like, buy a sword

and you don't really have it.

No, I use it in the game and you're going to pay for it.

And I just could not get my arms around it.

But he thought that was the greatest thing ever.

It is how they feel cool, how they play better in a game, how they are seen by their peers who also play in that game.

This is more than a hundred billion dollar business, virtual goods, right now in 2021.

It'll be more than $150 billion by 2025.

And so when I look at a business that's that large and one of the biggest problem with virtual goods in video games is you can't transfer them to other places.

They only exist in this kind of single game in this walled garden.

But non-fungible tokens enable you to actually acquire these things, have something that none of your friends have.

So it's unique, different, it can have different powers and capabilities.

And you get to keep it.

And you can actually sell it for a profit somewhere down the road.

Somewhere right now is somebody that has a closet full of beanie babies that were told exactly the same thing when the beanie baby craze was going.

It's just like the art and collectibles market.

You know, they have years where certain sectors are just on fire and they look like they're a bubble.

So

how do you know what to buy?

I mean, I guess it's like art.

You buy what you like, and good luck to you.

Well, I think,

you know, this is where kind of normal people actually have an advantage.

Let's say that, you know, you're a big NBA fan and you've been following the NBA for three decades.

You actually would have kind of this intrinsic, inherent feel for the value of certain moments in NBA history and what they might be worth and whether or not they're going to increase in value over time.

I can tell you that this industry, the NFT industry within a few years will be worth more than $100 billion.

This is literally a transference from one kind of physical object market into a digital asset market space.

And just like I think when I think about the investing world,

every year there are sectors that tend to be...

hotter and more exciting where technological advancement is happening more quickly.

And they tend to appreciate in value faster than other sectors.

So

I see this.

If I wanted to buy, let's say, the Lou Gehrig,

I'm the luckiest man, luckiest man on earth, on earth.

Could I buy that now?

And how would you buy it?

Yeah, so

the owners of the current assets

would have to basically package and productize and create a non-fungible token.

And by doing so, they actually create a contract of ownership.

So embedded within a non-fungible token is all the data about what makes it rare and special, as well as what we've referred to as a smart contract, which is what enables one company or person to transfer the rights of ownership to another individual.

And so once that's offered up, to whomever owns those rights, you could buy it and hold it for as long as you want it and do with it What you wanted?

One last question.

I was sued for the lowercase G by Garth Brooks when I first went over to CNN.

Okay, it's the typewriter lowercase G, and he sued me.

And

he had sued everyone who had used the lowercase G in a logo,

claiming ownership of it.

You know, he took a copyright, I think, out on it and

so owned it, and he fought it.

And after 10 years, if you fight and win every case, and he had the money to do it, you own that letter.

But you have to, as in anything, you have to defend it all the time.

So if you have a famous clip, don't you have to also have a bunch of attorneys to make sure that people know

that clip has to be removed from YouTube and everywhere else?

Don't you have to fight it all the time?

Yes,

traditionally that would be true.

The difference with

blockchain technology, I mean, of course, if somebody is just simply capturing a clip from, let's just say, a YouTube video or an old video, that's actually different than the non-fungible token itself.

The non-fungible token would not just include the video clip, but typically what we're seeing is there's other things that make it unique, other attributes to the clip that make it special.

And, you know, it's official.

It's like having a licensed and authorized product rather than

a knockoff jersey that you just buy off of a vendor off the street.

And so that's where rarity comes.

You're definitely right.

You could pursue those things.

Yeah, it's kind of crazy how you could claim a letter from the alphabet.

I know

copyrighted.

I thought for sure that it was madness, but it wasn't, and he now owns it.

Jeff, thank you so much for talking to us, Jeff Brown.

And you can find Jeff and follow Jeff with his website, jeffbrownletter.com or brownstone research.com.

Jeff, thank you.

Back in just a minute with more.

You bet.

It is My Patriot Supply.

What are your core beliefs as an American?

If you're listening to this program, I would assume that one of them is that you believe that you need to be self-reliant.

And self-reliance is not really playing a big role in today's life anymore.

Don't let the world change you.

Don't ask for a handout.

Don't ask for help.

Be able to help others.

Don't be a burden.

And don't be in the position where you have to take the deal because you're so desperate.

May I recommend Patriot Mobile

or My Patriot Supply?

Sorry, My Patriot Supply.

You go to My Patriot Supply right now

and

get your food.

One way you can go to My Patriot Supply is by using your Patriot Mobile phone, which is a great option

for many.

No, yeah, no, you can.

Well, the top of this copy says My Patriot Supply, and the the other says Patriot Mobile.

This one in particular, we love both companies.

However, Patriot Mobile is

the one we're going with here.

Okay.

So, my Patriot,

no, not My Patriot Supply or My Patriot Mobile.

It's Patriot Mobile.

Got it.

Okay.

All right.

Well, I'm glad it's not confusing here for us.

Not at all.

So we have some

Andrew Cuomo news, some more, some more.

What?

Yeah.

You're kidding me.

No.

Something new is happening with Andrew Cuomo.

Something, well, not necessarily new,

but he's in trouble again.

He's refusing to resign, even though two more women have come out and accused Andrew Cuomo.

Just the two.

Just the two.

Well, actually, it's much more.

No, it's two new ones.

Yeah.

It's just two new ones.

That's all it is, though.

That's all.

You know,

he's refusing to resign.

And now they have actually come out.

One of his aides in an interview off, you know, didn't give his name, but an aide gave on the record comment, at least, that said they are outwardly trying the governor Ralph Northam strategy, which is to say to just keep going and going and going, and eventually people will forget about it.

Well,

it would have worked with Bill Clinton if he just would have.

you know,

kept going.

Oh, it did.

It did.

Northam is another example of this.

There's been several of them.

If you just don't bow down, if you just say, it's not a problem, not a problem, what are people going to do about it?

And there's enough people that, you know, say, yeah, it's not a big deal.

You know, now you have how many?

Five?

Yeah, they're all varying degrees, but yeah, there's.

Yeah, these two are kind of bad.

Hugged and kissed her and grabbed her waist.

Another one says he took her to his dimly lit hotel room in Los Angeles after

an event in 2000 and embraced her and

you know went for it.

She said no, he stopped.

I don't know, is that harassment?

This is the Glendack program.

Or is that acceptable?

All right.

Our sponsor is Hustler Turf.

I want to introduce you to the world's greatest riding lawnmower.

It is the Hustler Turf Zero Turn Radius Lawnmower.

The other mowers out there, they don't cut it.

I mean, not like a hustler.

And Hustler, the zero turn, this is the lawnmower they invented decades ago.

And they did it for industrial work, things like the sides of roads and the hard to get areas that, you know, have to be moved and have to be mowed in huge amounts at the time.

You just, when you were a kid, you might have seen these lawnmowers out in the middle of the highway and thought, wow, that's cool.

And then you got your push mower.

Well, now you can have the same level of lawn care equipment, but made for your yard.

Hustler Zero Turn Mowers made in America.

They're fast, incredibly maneuverable, extremely durable, and you'll feel like you're, you know, mowing the yard in, I don't know, a combination of a tank and a sports car.

Clary Sillinger.

She is a mom just like you might be.

She has kids in school or should be in school.

And she has

started a new pack called Keeping Kids in School.

She

has been just like you, really upset about the school closure.

She said that she had an idea that the teachers' unions were involved.

And then something happened, and she said, I received the evidence.

Clarice is with us now.

Hello, Clarice.

Hi, Glenn.

I heard you slip in that hello, Clarice.

But

it's a real pleasure to be with you today.

Thank you very much.

Yes.

So I filed this right to know and got an email back from the teachers union president.

Crazy, right?

What is the right to know?

Is that like a Freedom of Information Act kind of thing?

That's correct.

Yep, that's exactly what it is.

All right.

And you filed that with whom?

So I filed that with my specific school district, Haparo Horsham, in the state of Pennsylvania.

Okay.

But we have hundreds all over the state of Pennsylvania trying to prove this union strongarming.

Okay.

And you wrote to them and said, what?

I want to know what?

I want all correspondence between the superintendent and all the union officials.

So correspondence, I laid it out, emails, text messages,

any conversation memo between, which is this union rep is Brian Moore and our superintendent.

Every school has a union representative.

So I encourage everyone to file these right to knows.

Okay.

That is, I didn't even know you could do that.

That's fantastic.

Fantastic.

All right.

So

you filed it, and what did you get back?

What did you find?

So

I got about 70 emails back.

And what I put in there was, I want all emails between March 2020 and March 2021 that include in-person return or COVID.

I put some keywords in there and I received this email back and it's so, so disturbing.

The president of the teachers union notes, we are not a child care center.

I fear babysitting drove parents to demand an amount of in-person instruction.

That is gut-wrenching, not just for parents, but also for teachers.

He has totally disregarded the importance and how essential our teachers are.

They're not babysitters.

They're educators.

So, wait a minute.

So that was in the memo from a union boss to the teachers?

This is an email from Brian Moore,

teachers union president for Hatboro Horsham School District, sent directly to our superintendent, encouraging him to keep the schools closed because he was trying to open them.

He says, for the record, and and I can't stress this enough, I do not believe it's the correct decision to keep moving ahead with a planned return for high school students.

As I pointed out yesterday, bringing those students back just to return them to remote instruction is plainly illogical.

Additionally, hybrid instruction is poor and unsupported by empirical evidence for effective curricular instruction.

Perhaps it has some social and emotional benefits, but it's not a better option than remote instruction.

We're not a child care center, and I fear babysitting drove parents to demand an amount of in-person instruction.

He says,

as we've said along, all along the way, we need to follow the science.

And I completely agree.

The science is telling us we should not have students in school, and decisions are being made to appease political needs rather than doing what's best for the kids.

So he's accusing this superintendent of bowing to political needs.

That's correct.

Yes.

Are you ready for the icing on the cake?

Sure.

Brian Moore, president of teachers union, sends his daughter ever since August five days a week in-person instruction to a Catholic school.

How could he do that if he finds it to be really dangerous?

I would love to know that question and i mean i would love to know that answer i mean i would love to speak to him face to face at this point uh you know our children are really suffering at the greatest extent i mean really truly i know you know the anxiety the depression the failing rates i mean what about the people that can't afford that option like he chose catholic school we're already paying so much money in school taxes and then here he's sending his child it's just it's just so heartbreaking.

Our kids have not been in school for a year, Glenn.

I know.

I know.

My daughter hasn't been in school for a year.

My son,

you can opt in or out, and my son has opted in to go into school, but he's still a couple times a week.

You know, he's doing the hybrid thing.

And

when he goes to school, it is like some sort of, I don't know, scientific,

you know, boy in a bubble kind of atmosphere where everybody is behind plexiglass and you can't leave your desk and you have to eat at your desk for lunch.

It's, I mean, it doesn't even sound like school.

That's right.

It's affecting him and his

depression level, and it's really not good.

So what do you, what is going to happen in this school district with Brian Moore?

Well, what he says, hybrid's not good, right?

He says it's poor and

unsupported.

So I'm pushing for full return.

I mean,

you're the one that's, he's the one that said it, you know, it's poor and unsupported.

So I'm hoping

that they take this and open our schools five days,

just as they should.

just as many scientists and doctors recommend for the welfare of our children.

But I will also note, I do believe, and I hate to get this to even be political, but I believe that people have to show up at the polls and start really knowing their candidate of who they're voting for for school boards and who's owned by the union and who's not.

Oh, yeah.

I would completely agree with you on that.

Now, seeing that the CDC has come out and said mask mandates and restaurant restrictions have small impact on the coronavirus cases.

I would assume that would be the same for schools.

And the American Pediatrics has come out and said, you've got to put kids back into school.

What science is he talking about that suggests that the teachers have to stay home?

He does refer to the Pennsylvania Department of Health.

But that,

yeah,

I know.

I mean, we know who is running that.

She's now,

she's now in the Biden administration.

That's right, Dr.

Levin.

Yeah, yeah.

Okay.

So it's troubling.

I mean, I just, I appreciate the time to bring light to this because our kids, and just like your son and daughter, need this so much.

Every single child needs this.

We have children that with keeping kids in school that have contacted us, their parents that are experiencing homelessness, and they use school for much more than school, right?

We cannot continue this.

This has to end.

We have kids that are going to gun violence,

drugs.

I mean, it has to end.

We're giving our children no outlet.

We're giving them no road or path to succeed.

So, Clarice, what about the,

you know, the argument that

as conservatives, I can't believe we're, we're demanding these schools open up.

There's a story out today that says in kindergarten, they're going to start talking

about

sexual identification and even anal sex.

Five-year-olds.

I mean, what are we doing?

I mean, isn't there a part of you that says, I don't want these schools to open back up?

It's a great fear.

But

Maybe we should start looking stronger at school choice.

I mean, maybe we should, because I know that I know many parents that cannot afford the option, you know, of private institution or whatever, whatever that is.

But

maybe, maybe the answer is school choice.

And I got to tell you, I've always been an advocate for public schools.

I always have.

And I thought that they were cornerstones of our community.

But with the email that I shared from you with the Union Strong Army and then you telling me about the curriculum changes.

How can we allow our children to experience this kind that it's disturbing?

It's really,

we must look to something else.

We must.

join your movement, you have KeepingKidsinschool.com.

Amen to that, brother.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Well, somebody who's just out there trying to do good, trying to change the world, trying to flex their social justice muscles and show that they are not a part of this evil white world and this male-dominated world is in trouble today.

Yes, our friends at Burger King UK are in trouble because they tweeted the following:

Women belong in the kitchen.

These bastards.

That's it.

That's the tweet.

That was the tweet.

That was the tweet.

And shockingly, they got a lot of negative attention for this.

Well, I would imagine.

Women belong in the kitchen.

I mean, I thought they were trying to do a big deal about women and

social justice.

Women's Day and all this other crap.

Yeah.

Well,

I'm sorry.

I just looked out of character there for a moment.

So, Burger King, of course,

obviously the

Burger King UK is not saying women should just belong in the kitchen, right?

Right, right.

It's social media.

Should you maybe detect that there's something additional here?

Of course, in reality, what it is, is a completely pandering program they're starting because it says women belong in the kitchen.

Follow-up tweet.

If they want to, of course, yet only 20% of chefs are women.

We're We're on a mission to change the gender ratio in the restaurant industry by empowering female employees with the opportunity to pursue a culinary career.

International Women's Day hashtag.

We are proud to be launching a new scholarship program, which will help female Burger King employees pursue their culinary dreams.

Nope, I believe they only they, this was a make-good.

This was like, oh, we're in trouble because we said women belong in the kitchen.

I don't accept that from Burger King UK.

And that is funny.

It's funny because, you know, they're basically...

Remember, the announcement is an announcement to give money to women.

That is actually what the announcement is.

Right.

Because of their absolutely pandering view about how certain genitals should be in the kitchen helping being chefs.

We have to have a split of each type of...

I mean, it's just absolutely ridiculous.

Totally pandering attempt to win women over.

And they're being trashed by everyone on social media.

Why?

Not because they care, they think it's pandering, which is a legitimate criticism of this.

Instead, it's because they basically should have known that no one was going to read the follow-up tweet.

Our expectations are so low that we can't believe that anyone would actually read two tweets.

That's too much effort for people to actually understand the context of what they're doing.

Well, it couldn't happen to a nicer group of people.

I mean, I really don't have anything

against Burger King, but all these corporations that pander will come and eat you eventually.

Yep, they're going to come and eat you.

So,

I mean, the Burger King character in particular might be like, oh, that's great.

But I don't mean it that way.

They're not going to eat at your restaurant.

They'll come and put you out of business, my friend.

Good luck.

This is the Glenback Program.

The Glenback Program.

So I'm just here in the governor's office.

Where did everybody go?

Will no one work for Cuomo anymore?

Look,

I only mentioned her bazooms because she has enormous bazooms.

What's a guy to do?

the Glenbeck program.

Two more, two more ladies

have said, Yeah, he did that to me, too.

And now the staffers are resigning.

We'll talk to you about that here in just a second.

If you've been slow to refinance your mortgage, then consider this your wake-up call.

Interest rates have been down for a long time, but it isn't going to last forever, and they're already starting to climb back upward.

And once they're gone, they will be gone.

Not getting the chance to take advantage of these historic low rates could be the least of your problems if we don't get a handle on what Washington is doing to the economy.

Here's what you need to do right now.

Make sure that you have your finances rock solid.

Take a little time out of your busy day and give the mortgage consultants over at American Financing a call.

They understand that your time is valuable and they're not going to waste a bunch of it.

All you have to do is just give them a couple of facts and they will tell you whether or not they can save you hundreds, if not a thousand dollars every single month, especially if you roll your credit cards into your mortgage without resetting your loan.

American Financing, they work for you and not the bank.

This is

a time to prepare for what is coming.

Check them out today.

See what they can do to help make your life a little bit better.

All right.

So I'm just saying, as Mayor Cuomo,

I'm just saying

that yes, two other ladies came out and said I was being inappropriate.

But the first one said, you know, I wrapped her in my embrace.

You know what I'm saying?

In a dimly lit Los Angeles hotel room.

The only reason why it was dimly lit is because I am very, very green.

And the only reason why I hid on her is because she wanted it.

I mean, look at her last name.

Hinton.

She wasn't just Hinton.

She was wanting it.

You should have seen the way she was dressed.

Dang.

He is that dumb.

He is that dumb.

Yeah.

And he seems to have this amazing ability.

to perplex women into thinking for some reason.

Let me just tell you this.

The other woman, the other woman, she said in 2014 I hugged and kissed her and grabbed her waist.

You should have seen the buttocks on that one.

You know what I'm saying?

Buttocks?

That wouldn't be that formal.

And the only reason why I kissed her is because her name is L-I-S-S, Liss.

She wanted it, or she wouldn't have a name that rhymed with KISS.

Wow.

He's really reaching for some of these.

He is.

I'm glad.

Hey, look.

It's almost like he didn't do any of the writing.

No.

You know what I mean?

That he should have done over the weekend.

You know, you look at the allegations which are piling up, and none of them are Harvey

Weinstein level.

We should note that.

And also, of course, he deserves his due process.

He doesn't deserve it, but he gets it anyway.

He doesn't deserve anything, but he gets it because he's an American citizen.

Right.

But you look at

good for you, Stu.

Hey, you do you boo.

You just keep going.

Well, you know what I'm saying?

Like,

he doesn't deserve it.

He hasn't earned.

He hasn't earned the due process.

Right.

He just gets it.

Yes.

And I refuse to take it away even from the douchiest of

governors.

Yes.

Okay.

But he is now, listen to this.

This is from one of his spokes.

Two of the most ridiculous comments from the spokespeople for Randy Cuomo today.

One talks about Karen Hinton, as you mentioned.

This did not happen.

She was doing more than Hinton.

Karen Hinton is a known antagonist of the governor's who is attempting to take advantage of this moment to score cheap political points with made-up allegations from 21 years ago.

All women have the right to come forward and tell their story.

However, it's the responsibility of the press to consider self-motivation.

I got news for you.

I got news for you.

I always say, and I still say to this very day, believe all women except for these five.

Which they will continually increase the number as new ones come out.

I mean, think about that.

This is, of course, the right stance, right?

All women have the right to come forward and tell their story.

Yes.

However, it's also the responsibility of the press to consider self-motivation.

That has been true since the dawn of time.

It's just now only being applied by Democrats when they get in trouble.

Yeah.

Which is fascinating.

It does not apply.

I mean, look at this.

How long did we hear that

you can't say

that there's a problem with Muslims?

No, there's a problem in the Muslim community.

You're saying all Muslims?

No, I'm saying there's a problem in the Muslim community.

So you're saying all Muslims?

No, I'm saying that those who want to blow things up to get their way and their way is the Islamic scriptures are overriding U.S.

law.

They're called Islamists.

So you have a problem with Islam.

No, they're called Islamists.

So it's a problem with Islam.

No, it's Islamist.

Remember that whole argument that we had for almost, what, 12 years?

Why is it we're not having the argument?

So you're saying all members of the GOP are right-wing terrorists?

Is that what you're saying?

Because here's how it goes.

So wait a minute.

Because of January 6th, you're saying that all GOP and anybody who voted for Donald Trump is a right-wing terrorist?

Yes.

Oh,

okay.

That's it.

I mean, yeah, there's no, they say yes to that.

They say yes to that.

If you voted for him, yes, you're part of the problem.

Well, wait, you wouldn't do that to Muslims.

You wouldn't do that to anyone.

Nor should anyone you don't judge people based on the identity group they belong to you just pee you judge people based on their merit Which is why you don't believe all women the idea that women can't lie and don't lie about such things is completely absurd And you know who will tell you louder than anyone women women women will say you know all my friends from college they lied all the time

You will hear that much more often from women than you will from men because women know women better than men do.

And that is a that is a fact.

I can't tell you how many times

I've said, well,

I believe her or I think this or, you know, I don't think women would.

And my wife will look at me and go, are you out of your mind?

It's so true.

Yeah.

No, I think they would do that, honey.

No, really?

Women are like, yes.

Yes.

Dummy.

Listen to this quote.

This one might be the most unbelievable of them all, though.

Of all the accusations, all the denials from Cuomo throughout this particular period, tell me if this one sings to you, Glenn.

Rich Azapardi, a senior Cuomo advisor, said in a separate statement that in his eight years in the governor's office, he never heard him use coarse language.

Come

on.

This guy.

This guy.

Nah, I never use coarse language.

Yeah, I tell you about it, but all I'm thinking is the F-word and the S-word.

So I can't tell you and defend myself because I'm going to use offensive language.

Unfortunately, the FCC bars us from illustrating what Andrew Cuomo sounds like on a daily basis in stats.

I've never heard him use coarse language.

Come on.

Oh, yeah.

He's a choir boy.

There's literally no reason to believe that that's true.

The Atlantic actually got a senior

Cuomo advisor to give a quote, not with a name attached to it.

But listen to this.

Barring a burst of new allegations, Cuomo absolutely will not resign.

Quote, the old resignation playbook is out, end quote, a Cuomo advisor told me, requesting anonymity to discuss the private deliberations that have been going on over the past week.

Very much on the minds of Cuomo and his team is Virginia Governor Ralph Northam, who refused to resign in 2019 after the discovery of an old racist yearbook page, but who today

remains popular with voters.

Quote, there's a new path, and that is to wait it out, is how the advisor put it to me.

Wait,

Northam is popular with voters?

Is this a Washington Post article?

This is an Atlantic article.

They are linking to a Washington Post article, however,

that does say that there's polling Northampton at 56% approval.

Okay, so he's not popular.

He's popular with half of the voting public.

Yeah, 56% is not bad.

He was at 43% during the scandal.

And so he's raised that up to 56.

Yeah, because everybody stops thinking about it when you realize there's nothing can be done.

If these guys just power through them, and

that's what you learn.

I mean, they remember everybody was calling for Donald Trump's resignation.

They wanted him to resign, resign, resign, resign.

And he played this.

No, I'm not going to.

You know, he was right for doing it.

I'm not as generous on the the benefit of the doubt

with Cuomo as Stu is, but

the benefit of the doubt?

You think I'm that is an accusation I did not think I would face.

I'm giving Cuomo the benefit of the doubt.

Wow.

Well, you're giving him, you know, the right to a fair hearing.

And I don't know if I would.

I find it very important to maintain consistency whenever possible.

I do too.

And like, you know, like, I don't know if it's possible at this time.

Cuomo is so bad, it's very difficult for me to do.

But again,

he doesn't, he's already had due process when it comes to the

killing thousands of people in his state in nursing homes.

That he's had due process on.

We've seen, he's admitted he hid those numbers, and he's apologized for it already.

That is more than enough for him to have to leave office.

They should impeach him over it.

Well, this is a separate thing, and we just don't know how true the stuff is yet.

You know, you're missing the real problem in our society.

And

if you may, if you would, just give me just

a second here.

Advocating the banishment of six Dr.

Seuss books for apparent racial imagery, New York Times columnist Charles M.

Blow

complained that there's something else that needs to happen.

As a child, I was led to believe that blackness was inferior.

Wow, you had bad parents.

And I was not alone.

The black society.

I don't know if he's talking about his parents.

Maybe he is.

Well, I mean, it's a fascinating thing, though.

You're right.

That is the job of the parents to make sure that they don't believe that.

I'm 56, and I know my parents made it very clear there's no difference between us, which is wrong, by the way and yeah i know and uh you know even my grandfather in his old time he born born in 1903 you know he gets to be old and he's like don't let anybody tell you that blacks are any different and you're like okay grandpa thank you

right and that's actually was actually a statement of trying to to be it was it was standing up against his generation yeah right because he didn't use black he actually used the c word can i even say i'm going to say it He was like, don't let anybody tell you coloreds are any different.

And that was the way they spoke about it.

And that's the way he spoke.

And that's the way they speak at the NAACP today.

Yes, it is.

Anyway, so I was, you know, I was raised better than that.

I feel sorry for the Blow family.

I was led to believe blackness was inferior, and I was not alone.

Black society in which I was born was riddled with these beliefs.

It It happened for children in the most inconspicuous of ways.

It was relayed through toys and dolls, cartoons, and children's shows, fairy tales, and children's books.

Some of the first cartoons I remember

included Pepe LePue.

Oh, no.

What color is Pepe Le Pue?

Black and white.

He's black, and he's got white on his back.

You see what I'm saying there?

No,

I'm sure you're going to manufacture what you're saying.

Riding on the black man is white.

So one of the first cartoons I remember was Pepe LePue, who normalized rape culture.

How many times have we said it?

Now,

I'm glad that we have things into perspective now.

But I remember Pepe LePue.

Okay.

And

I never thought rape was normal.

No?

No.

Really?

And maybe it goes back to my parents or the fact that I have common sense.

But

I always thought Pepe Le Pue was a stinky skunk.

And,

you know.

Yeah, to be clear, Pepe Le Pue has never raped anyone.

I don't know if people are aware of this.

He's not a rapist skunk.

Really?

He's a skunk.

In fact, if you watch Pepe Le Pue,

you will notice that the...

Because it's a cat, right?

It's a cat he's trying to hook up with the whole time.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Right?

Yeah.

And so, but the cat is not

is not running away from him because he doesn't, he doesn't, she doesn't want to do the things he's doing.

She's running away from him.

Running away because he stinks.

He's a skunk.

Yeah.

In fact, in other episodes,

she chases him down.

Everyone in the Blow family for generations now are going, holy crap, wait a minute.

Yeah, like she actually wants to get with him this entire time.

That's the storyline.

The The cat wants to get with the skunk, but the skunk smells so bad, she's like, oh, gosh, I can't do it.

It's not that she's trying to resist rape.

So,

if anything.

Why would that be the storyline of a kid's cartoon?

If anything, Pepe LePue

normalized inner species mating.

That's true.

That is how ridiculous it is.

That's how ridiculous it is.

Because she wanted to do it with Pepe.

It wasn't that he was a skunk.

It was that he smelled.

Oh,

okay.

And Pepe was just making it with anything other than skunks because he identified as a cat.

Or expected the cats to identify as skunks.

I'm going to be a skunk today.

No.

Uh-uh.

It doesn't work that way.

Mr.

Blow.

I am really sorry for your childhood, but don't heap that bullcrap on me and my family because I probably grew up around the same time that you did.

And Pepe LePue did not teach me that rape was good.

I had parents that taught me rape is not good.

All right, now let me get in here to this commercial

for Rough Greens.

Listen.

You gotta ask yourself one question.

Do you love your dog?

I mean really, really, really love your dog?

Like, wouldn't send him to one of my nursing homes kind of love him?

Well, if you do, you need to give him a bag of Rough Greens.

I got a couple of bags that fell off the back of a truck.

Do you know what?

You know what I mean?

It's

probably going to be like the crack that I'm going to have to sell when I get kicked out of office, but only for dogs and healthy.

You sprinkle it on your dog's food.

They love it.

But just in case case they don't, Rough Greens will be happy to let you try it before you buy it.

10 seconds station ID.

Hey.

So my brother said on CNN

that he says I was black on the inside

and people are ripping him saying that's if inoffensive you know what I mean black on the inside

you think you think I would have a brother who is black on the inside of course not

blacks they're blacks

that's that's is that a quote from Edgar Cuomo yeah that's not actually a joke that's just that's just what he says it's just who the guy who I think the guy probably is probably, you know, if you're this much of a Neanderthal,

you know, you're kind of probably a little like, hey, hey, you know what I mean, Gino?

Well, we know the true Neanderthal thinking is letting people go and open up their businesses.

That's the real Neanderthal thinking.

No.

He probably will get through this because he will eventually wait it out.

And unlike Republicans,

he will not be pressured out and will not be impeached and will not be targeted in that way.

I think there is a strategy here.

And you mentioned Trump.

It's that it's funny because you think about what think of the media caricature of what Donald Trump is.

That person is Andrew Cuomo.

Right?

Like he's

if his fans like him, they like him because of these, you know, the tough talk and the down, he talks like me, right?

Like that's what they like about him.

Really?

Do people say daa!

Yes,

they do.

Often.

Often.

But all the stuff like he's a bully.

He's been accused by people of sexual harassment.

He lies all the time.

No, no, no.

All these things they accuse Trump of is who Cuomo is.

No.

You have Donald Trump.

He said things about women that were inappropriate.

Yes, he has to go.

That's the truth of Cuomo.

He was a bully and said mean things to people, and he had to go.

Cuomo's different, he has to stay.

Oh, okay.

This is the Glenback program.

All right, let me tell you about Goldline.

It's almost as if the administration would like to destroy the economy as quickly as they can from the looks of it.

You can't ignore the warning signs, and there are a lot of warning signs.

The number of U.S.

dollars that they are printing, hyperinflation is real.

It's mathematical, and we are

burrowing our way underneath all good times and going deeper and deeper in towards a cliff.

When we come out the other side, we just fall.

Please consider gold or silver.

Be on top of your financial gain.

Look for things that will have value that aren't in dollars.

Stop waiting and call gold line right now.

I'm going to talk a little bit more about this after the break.

But with every tube of certified gold Liberty coins, you're going to get five brilliant uncirculated Kennedy silver half-dollars at no additional charge.

These are the exact coins that I buy when I buy coins from a gold line.

Get them now.

You can ask them

what I buy at 866Goldline.

866Goldline or Goldline.com.

I am too interested in what you buy.

We'll get into that coming up.

Triple 877B is the phone number.

AndrewCuoboisawful.com is the website.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

We're glad you're here.

Over the weekend, we did our first trial, our first study, if you will, with about 200 people

at the Mercury, Mercury One American Journey Center, which is where our vault is and also where we teach.

And some of the people from here at the Mercury Studios and the Blaze, I invited some of the producers over this weekend to pop in and see what we were doing.

And they all had the same reaction.

They were all like, oh my gosh, what?

I mean, we didn't even know this was being built.

It's quite an amazing place and it will be open to the public.

And we're going to be doing a couple of more of these.

And hopefully, the next one we will get on tape and posted online.

But it's a free service to anybody that wants to come.

And it was a three-day session of

knowledge, of the history of the United States.

And it was just an overview.

And it's what everybody needs to do.

I mean,

you have to take charge of your life and you have to take charge of your education.

And we had

people came from all over the country and they were, they all left the same way.

Even those who had been through our museums and everything else before, they left saying,

I can't believe all that I learned.

A friend of mine who went said she had

she had brunch with her friends, what, yesterday or day before, and she said, I was telling all these stories of all the things that I learned.

And all the women were like, wait, wait, where did you learn all of this stuff?

How can we go?

We're going to put it online.

It's kind of like Prager University, except long form.

And you'll get the information that you need and how to learn so you can teach your kids about that.

But we were, you know, some people came in masks because they were part of, you know, parts of the country where you have to wear masks all the time.

And, you know, they wore them, you know, the whole time.

Other people didn't wear masks.

And we were cool either way on

masks.

And I don't feel, you know, there's this amazing editorial in today's Washington Post or yesterday's Washington Post about how

evil

Texas is.

And it's written by a Texan who says this just a, it's a, the GOP here is a death cult.

No, it's not.

No, it's not.

I mean,

we're not as bad as New York and California, and they've shut everything down.

So tell me,

where's your science now?

See?

Where's the science?

Because I don't understand what's happening, but we're not seeing a difference.

But there's also something else about the shutdowns that we're not seeing a difference that I also don't understand.

And that is there's no real difference economically in the end now between the states that opened up and the states that didn't, except for unemployment, right?

There's no real clear pattern.

It's interesting because I'm working on a project for Studios America and we'll do it.

We'll talk about it here too when I'm done, which is which states actually performed the best and worst through this?

Because we all talk about a lot of different things, but like if you look at the whole picture, not just, you know, we love South Dakota, right?

Because

they had showed a lot of freedom, but they had some really rough results at times with the actual virus where, you know, you look at a state like Texas, how did they do?

How did Florida do?

How did California do?

Even though they had, you know, varying government programs and lack of freedom and such.

But what was the actual performance when it comes to economy and the actual virus?

And so I'm going through this.

And one of the things that I found to be really fascinating, and it was against what I believed going in, was

when you look at the GDP of these states.

How much they locked down doesn't seem to affect the GDP at all.

I mean, almost no difference between the states that fully locked down the entire time and states that were open the entire time.

See, that doesn't make sense.

Only two things could make sense of that.

One is it that the big businesses that didn't have to lock down,

were the big businesses,

are they just weighted so much more than the local businesses?

Do they do so much more business that it's almost a blip?

I don't believe that.

The other would be the printing of money.

That's what I think think it is because

the government has given away so much money

to shield these states against the collapse that they've essentially just run the economy for these blue states.

For these states that have really locked down, they've just stepped in and given so much cash that they've floated the economy.

Now, when you look at unemployment,

Huge difference.

A big difference appears where states that did lock down have much higher unemployment differences than those that did not.

And that's going to be harder to rebound from.

Because these people are out of work.

They have to find all new jobs.

New businesses need to open.

And small business in every recession, 75% of all job creation comes from the small businessman.

Well, in some states, you've completely wiped them out.

In New York City, you've wiped the restaurant out.

Just wiped it out.

Yeah.

So what happened?

Because I mean, GDP doesn't care if if you're printing a bunch of money and that's why people are spending, right?

They don't care about that.

But in the future, they will.

So there's only two ways to go forward from here, right?

You either continue the printing of money for

a very long time,

possibly with no end in sight, to maintain these states that had to go through all of this,

or the blue states collapse.

The blue states collapse and the red states do really well.

Do you think the Biden administration is going to let that one happen?

Nope.

I don't think so.

Here's the other thing that really concerns me, and that is 10% GDP growth, they're saying in the first quarter of this year.

10% growth.

Now, normally that's great, and I do think it's great.

However, where is that GDP growth coming?

Where is that money coming from?

Is it coming from the average person getting paid and then, you know, growing the economy because they're spending their dollars?

Or is it because it is coming from the federal government?

So you have 10% of GDP growth in the first quarter.

On top of that, you are printing 26%

more money than we ever have, except in the year 1944.

We have never printed dollar to dollar.

We've never printed this money except in the year right before the end of the war when we're building ships and nuclear weapons and everything else.

That money has got to go someplace.

And the reason reason why we're not having inflation, I contend that we are having inflation.

You're having inflation in things like art prices,

on Wall Street,

on houses,

on expensive cars.

You're having that inflation already.

But it's only at the upper, upper end

because

the people who have the money at the upper end and running these giant corporations and they're like, I'll buy that piece of art for $70 million.

They are,

they're spending the money and they're looking for ways to invest the money because they don't necessarily trust the dollar or whatever.

So the rich are, I mean, the mega rich are getting richer.

And

when it starts to trickle down to where the guy who's the mechanic, can go and have some money left over for the movie theater

and he takes his kids out to, well, not a movie theater, he goes out and does something and he spends that money.

Once the average person begins to spend again,

you have the threat of real hyperinflation.

And, you know, at this thing at M1 this weekend, we were talking about, you know, the things that we could do.

At the end, we went over, so where did America go wrong?

And did we drift or was it plotted?

And it was a little little bit of both.

A lot of it, though, is just the average drift that people just stop paying attention and you just forget about certain things that are really, really important.

And

we started to drift.

So the first thing you need to do is learn what we really are all about.

Where did America go wrong?

And where did America go right?

And we're conservative, which means we conserve the good things

while we work with somebody who is into progress.

I hate to use the word progressive, but a conservative that is not a 20th century progressive, but progressive on new ideas, new technologies.

That's the perfect combination.

We don't throw everything away.

for something new.

We conserve the things that made us who we are, and we keep the important things that have always worked.

And you have to know what those things are.

But also, prepare for impact because I don't know when it's going to happen, but we're in it now.

We are in it now.

And if you plan on standing, it's going to be extraordinarily difficult to stand.

Stu and I were talking about, you know, solar panels yesterday.

And if you don't have solar panels on your house in the future, you're going to get taxed for it.

You're going to get points taken off.

You won't maybe be able to sell your house or buy a house unless you agree to install solar energy on top of the roof.

It's going to change.

And if you say, I'm not going to do the social justice thing, I'm not going to do it.

I won't participate in all of this.

Well, you're going to have a harder and harder time having access.

to almost everything.

If you don't have a lot of money, because remember, people who have a lot of money are looking, what do I put it in?

Because I don't necessarily believe in the dollar, where do I put it?

You have to think about that on your own level, and that is

you have to start thinking, like people who came before us in the 1930s thought,

especially overseas.

You have to start thinking what will have value.

For instance, I think cigarettes are going to have great value.

I think alcohol will have great value.

And there's always going to be somebody, you want some food or something, there's always going to be somebody that wants cigarettes.

You know what?

You give me some chicken, I'll give you this carton of cigarettes.

There's always going to be somebody that wants alcohol.

I mean, if it really gets bad, you know, then it's really

worth its weight in gold because it's medicine.

You know, it will help put you down if something is really, really bothering you.

Like, you know, your childhood or, no, wait, that was my problem.

Yeah, don't do it for alcohol on that one.

But it is, it would be medicinal in its usage if things were horrible.

You got to think about the things that you could afford that would be worth something to others that you can put your money into now.

Not all of it, but you put some things away and you take cigarettes and you

vacuum seal them and you'll be able to use that as barter.

What will people barter for

if you're locked out of a system or if the system goes dark and we go through a real rough time?

That's the way it worked in Germany.

in the Weimar Republic.

People bought things, no matter what was on the shelf, they bought it because it's all they could buy.

And then they got together and they bartered.

You need this.

I need that.

How about we switch?

Stu's trying to convince me that

you know, you should drink, Glenn, but you won't like it anymore.

Well, what I mean, I've had a long-standing policy on this program to get you to have a relapse on the air because it would be great for ratings.

I mean, think of

26 years of sobriety to.

I mean, that would be, you're telling me anyone, would you tune out, audience?

No one in the audience would tune out to that.

What's he going to say next?

Right.

He's, hey, and let me tell you another thing, Joe Biden.

Yeah.

It would be a good show.

And then

one show.

No, because then there's the recovery episodes where you swim back to sanity and you have the struggle.

Those things rate hugely.

The personal struggle thing is great.

So, you know, sure, you know, you'd have various organs shutting down, but that would be fascinating too.

The only thing I mentioned to you, though, is you made a comment of like, you know, oh man, if my, maybe in my last days, I'll forget I have any of these restrictions and I can just enjoy life for a while.

I will tell you, drinking at 56 and drinking at 30, which is the last time approximately you had a drink,

are two different things.

Well, I hope I'm not in my last days.

I mean, I was thinking, if I make it to 99, my next birthday is 100.

Right.

I think,

I think it would be like,

look, I'm an alcoholic, but, you know, family, it's 100 years,

100 years.

And I have had to be around you guys for a lot of that.

That's true.

And your children and your children's children, and they're all screaming.

I don't know any of their names anymore.

I need a drink.

I just think, you know, I just think that even AA would be like, I'm going to give you a chip for that.

I'm going to give you a chip for that.

I don't think that's the way it works.
