The 'Amazing' Debate: Biden’s Ancient, Castro’s a Jerk, and WE Deserve an Apology | Guests: Brad Meltzer & Bill O’Reilly | 9/13/19

First, let me, by the way, I was listening to Pat's more on trivia.

Eagles were ripped off.

Really?

Yes.

Oh, good.

Let's get this going.

All right.

Let me tell you about home title lock.

Equity theft.

This is the craziest thing that's going on now.

You can, for like 30 bucks, you can steal someone's house.

Now,

I don't know.

I mean, you have so much to worry about.

Really?

I have to worry about my house being stolen as well?

Yeah, apparently so.

I don't know about you, but

which of course both of us did, you did, right, Stu?

You watched the debate last night?

Yeah,

so we were all over it.

You're not getting a look when you go to CNN or the New York Times.

You're not really getting all of the facts on what happened.

Joe Biden,

they said they thought he helped himself last night.

I'd like to disagree with that.

And I'll give you the evidence in one minute.

This is the Glenbeck program.

All right.

So, Stu,

you know, I'm going to say this, and this is going to be redundant for for you because I'm going to play some clips from the on your

and you.

I've heard all these clips already.

Yeah, you saw last night.

Yeah, I mean, it's just like I guess.

You weren't watching football last night, were you?

Was there a game?

I don't.

Oh, okay.

I don't know.

Yeah, I wouldn't know.

I don't like sports.

Yeah.

And I wasn't at a parent-teacher conference last night either, begging to go.

This is the first time.

First time ever.

Can I go talk to your teachers instead?

So

we're going to play a couple of clips for you.

Now,

this is one of many, but I want to start with this one.

This is Joe Biden talking about how the government really can partner with parents to

help them

raise their kids.

Listen.

This is Biden Confused about TV.

We bring social workers into homes of parents to help them deal with how to raise their children.

It's not that they'll want to help,

they don't know quite what to do.

Play the radio, make sure the television, excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night,

the phone, make sure the kids hear words.

What?

Now, hang on, just a second.

I just want to just to make Joe Biden feel comfortable.

I have an old record player here.

and uh.

It's getting up to speed.

Okay, so anyway.

So,

good God, are we in the shining right now?

Now it's up to speed.

Yeah, so

isn't that the way your record player sounds?

Yeah, I mean, Joe Biden.

Oh, geez, hang on.

See, kids, you all know that.

There, okay.

So,

you know, you got to have the record player going.

This is the part where Jack Nicholson's at a really nice party, right?

It is kind of freaky, isn't it?

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

And this is.

I can turn it down.

You know, it has the volume control?

Yeah.

There.

Oh, there's like a little.

You just close the front of it, and that's the volume.

Want it louder?

I'll open it up.

Oh, gosh.

Close it.

That's your volume control.

It's fantastic.

So, Joe Biden, when was the last time you heard anyone say, you know, kids just don't hear enough words, so you got to make sure the parents have the record player on?

It's been a while since I've heard that sentence

attempted.

I'll tell you, I don't think I've ever heard that sentence.

No.

Even growing up at a time where there were record players, I don't remember anybody's advice, keep the record player on.

Yeah, I don't remember that either.

It's especially weird how he came to it because he came to it not from, I would have assumed he said record player.

I mean, you know, TV.

No.

He actually went TV and then corrected it to record player.

And then he went the phone, and then he realized, no, the phone wouldn't work.

I mean, listen to this again.

This is really not good.

We bring social workers into homes of parents to help them deal with how to raise their children.

It's not that they'll want to help.

They don't know quite what to do.

Play the radio.

Make sure the television, excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night.

The phone.

Make sure the kids hear words.

Wow.

First of all, can we also step back and realize he's like talking about social workers coming into your home to help you raise your kids?

Which is like the policy there seems questionable.

Well, especially if they're saying, turn on the radio.

Turn on.

Where's the record player?

You know, you kids nowadays, you don't understand.

Turn on the radio.

I mean, radio is even not the future.

I hate to say it as a national broadcaster, but

it shows how out of touch he is.

Radio, no television, no, no television, no

record players.

Put on the record player.

I tell you what, Edison's got one of these things you crank all around.

You put a little wax cylinder in there.

And maybe kids have wax in their ears.

Where are my shoes?

I mean, he is out.

I think what he's actually trying to refer to there is: there's some research that shows that, you know, kids perform better later in life if their parents read to them, if they're hearing conversations, if they're hearing words, you know, their vocabularies are better later in life.

But he did not, he did not know.

No, he didn't nail that.

Okay,

how about

how about this one?

When Biden said, let's do I'm the vice president.

Do we have that one?

Let's put pressure on them to pass the Violence Against Women Act now.

Yeah, but you didn't answer the question.

No, did you make a mistake with those deportations?

The president did the best thing that was able to be done.

How about you?

I'm the vice president of the United States.

Secretary Castro.

I mean, I know.

No, no.

On that one.

Okay.

He's talking about a scenario.

Okay.

At that time, he was the vice president.

All right.

All right.

I can't kill him on that one.

Well, he did call Bernie Sanders the president last night.

He keeps doing that.

That's a weird one.

He called Corey Booker the president last night.

Right, right.

Now, here's Castro confronting him on this.

Low blow or the right thing to do.

Listen to this.

They wouldn't have to buy in.

That's a big difference because Barack Obama's vision was not to leave 10 million people uncovered.

He wanted every single person in this country covered.

My plan would do that.

Your plan would do that.

They do not have to buy in.

They do not have to buy in.

You just said that.

You just said that two minutes ago.

You just said two minutes ago that they would have to buy in.

You said they would have to buy in.

Are you forgetting what you said to me?

Are you forgetting already what you said just two minutes ago?

I mean, I can't believe that you said two minutes ago that they had to buy in, and now you're saying they don't have to buy in.

You're forgetting that.

I mean, look.

Grandmother who has no money.

Shealthcare system

automatically enrolls people regardless of whether they choose to opt in or not.

I'm

fulfilling the legacy of Barack Obama, and you're not.

That would be a surprise to him.

That's actually a solid line by Biden at the end.

The one thing I did take out of this debate is that Julian Castro is a jerk, jerk, a just jerk.

He didn't help himself to that at all.

Awful guy.

Yeah.

I mean, here's a guy who is a

zilch in the world.

He's a zilch.

And he is plucked by Obama Biden into a prime role in

the administration for no reason other than to improve his prospects at future election.

And how does he pay these guys back?

He goes on stage just the second time he's done it.

He tries to go after Biden because he's just trying to become the vice president under

Warren.

Like, he believes Warren Castro is a thing.

He's doing what Biden used to do.

Yeah.

When he wanted to be vice president, he was the president's attack.

And that is what he's doing for Warren right now, so Warren doesn't have to do it.

But he, I mean, just

a person who does that is correct.

But is it legitimate to point out, wait a minute, you just, are you forgetting?

Because I didn't remember him saying that.

I think Biden was right on the point, wasn't he?

I mean, it was, we'll have to go back and listen to the audio.

I'd have to have actually not been an apparent teacher.

Right.

And

I remember this play.

I remember that.

It was a three-yard

run.

I remember the.

All right.

We're going to go to Houston here in just a second.

Stand by.

First,

listen up.

Got a great offer from Tocovis.

I can't wait to tell you about.

I want to remind you first why I love Takovis.

Tocovis is made uh by a company here in america that uh

really believes that we can make things of good quality again at really not a high price and that this is something that americans really really would like and why are we spending so much money on a pair of shoes when or a pair of boots in this case when it doesn't have to be that way.

They're stitched, they're beautiful, beautiful cowboy or western boots, and you can find them for men, for ladies, whatever you're looking for.

But also, they make clothing, which is great.

I absolutely love their jeans

and their belts and bags and everything else.

You're going to find something at Takovis that you love.

If you are looking for high quality at half the price, Takovis.

10 seconds, station ID.

All right, we have Kevin Ryan on now with us.

Kevin

was down in Houston.

Are you still in houston or are you back yet i'm still in houston okay how kevin how was it in the debate hall itself what did you what did you see what stuck out to you

so i was actually in the media set all the media for the most part were in uh a gymnasium that was like right around the corner uh and it actually worked out in a pretty cool way because i was able to change the way the media reacted to what was going on in the auditorium and there were a lot of disparities um there were a few moments like when uh yang saying about when he said i'm asian so i know a lot of doctors um

that the uh the audience didn't really react at all the media surprisingly was like cracking up they thought it was really funny Really?

Because I've seen a lot of criticism on that one saying that

he was heightening stereotypes.

It's like, if you're going to have a stereotype, being a doctor is not the worst one.

I mean,

you know what?

That just coming from a guy who's got a bunch of good-looking kids and very successful and uber-smart and healing people.

We got those Asians this time.

I think

at the end of the day, Biden.

was the uh biden was the winner of that debate um even with all of the i mean doesn't he look

like maybe he doesn't have a grip on

at least his

yeah,

yeah, for sure.

And there was, there were a few moments during his gas

when there was like chatter through the room, like his record player statement.

Yeah.

All you could hear after that was like everybody in the room was like, oh, why is he talking about record players?

It's interesting with Biden in that he has a stamina issue, I would say, where

he was good for the first half hour or so.

And that's the part that most people watch.

You know, I'm not sure that that's a good thing, though, for the president.

No, it's a terrible thing.

I'm good for 30 minutes a day.

Maybe they'll do less damage if he's only there for 30 minutes a day.

It could be an upside of Biden from our perspective.

But I think he winds up the longer these things go, he can't avoid the the go to Joe30330.com.

And he just can't, he eventually will get himself caught in sort of that, you know, word barrage that he can't sort out.

But at the beginning, he was relatively focused and did okay.

And I don't think, did you, I didn't get the idea that there was a huge loser or winner.

Nothing changed in the race from this debate.

Was that your perspective, Kevin?

I think Biden got lucky that Castro obviously drank too much Red Bull before the debate and was just so salty

because nobody liked his attack on Biden.

It just seemed kind of

unnecessarily nasty.

Especially coming from him.

Was he right, Kevin,

was he right about the

you just said that you'd have to sign up?

He wasn't right.

No.

He was not right.

He was actually wrong.

No.

I know.

If you're going to attack someone like that, at least have the fact.

I mean, that's a bad attack to launch if you're not right.

Let me ask you this.

What was anyone's reaction to Biden saying, hey, we didn't put kids in cages?

See,

I didn't get a reaction out of that at all.

And

it was fascinating to see this.

And

one way I saw it was with Klobuchar.

every time clovichar spoke the whole media room was like oh thank god we have a break now so they would just like chat with their neighbors people would go get a drink or food wow

they did not care about anything she said at all that's interesting too because she had a pretty good debate it was definitely her best one so far Definitely, she had some canned line, like the Houston We Have a Problem thing.

Just like people, the whole room was like, oh, come on.

Yeah, that's a groaner.

That is a groaner.

I mean, come on.

I know you're in Houston.

You know what I'm saying?

I don't be boxed.

Okay.

That's weird.

I mean, you could tell, and this was the thing with Castro.

Castro went into that debate.

Whether he had a senior moment or not, he was going to say, have you forgotten what you said two minutes ago?

He knew he was going to say it.

He had it planned.

He was waiting to bring it out.

He thought he had a good opportunity.

He blew that opportunity, and he did it in a way that now everybody hates him, which they should, because he just seems like a jerk.

I mean, he just seems like a jerk.

How about the reaction with uh elizabeth warren from the press

i mean they seem to really like her um which i still don't completely understand myself

by the way we're talking to kevin ryan he's a writer for glembeck.com and also the blaze.com

uh

so you

no no no go ahead so you were talking about elizabeth warren

so after the uh debates all the candidates went over to the media center

All the candidates, except for Biden, by the way, for whatever reason.

But

it was a good gauge of who the media are really, really

kind of obsessed with or a big fan of because they would follow around.

They would basically mob the candidates who they really like.

And they were definitely following

Warren around.

And they were following Harris around, which surprised me because every time she spoke, the whole room just completely cringed.

Yeah, she had, she, again, did not have a good debate.

Uh, she's she's struggling.

I mean, she's struggling to recapture her magic from debate, debate one.

And she seems to go into these things with these ideas, you know, a lot of canned lines.

I mean, she's not helping herself right now.

Um, I did see there, they did mob her, though.

Kevin had sent some pictures, and there were reporters all over her.

Um, you know, Biden's interesting, though.

I mean, there's a good strategic argument to say Biden doesn't have to do anything to win this nomination.

He just has to not screw it up.

So he comes out and he has a good first half hour and kind of sits back and

hopefully people tuned out by the time he started talking about record players.

And then why go to the spin room where you might have another bad moment, right?

What's the point?

He's already winning by, you know, 10 points or 8 points or 15 points, depending on the poll.

What was the reaction?

Let me play Beto Hell Yes.

I want to hear the press room reaction to this.

The high impact, high velocity round when it hits your body, shreds everything inside of your body because it was designed to do that so that you would bleed to death on a battlefield and not be able to get up and kill one of our soldiers.

When we see that being used against children, And in Odessa, I met the mother of a 15-year-old girl who was shot by an AR-15.

And that mother watched her bleed to death over the course of an hour because so many other people were shot by that AR-15 in Odessa in Midland.

There weren't enough ambulances to get to them in time.

Hell yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47.

We're not going to allow it to be used against our fellow Americans anymore.

You know,

what an interesting

trick he did, a shell game of.

Look at these bullets.

And they bled to death because there weren't enough ambulances.

It wasn't the bullet.

It wasn't the AR-15.

The press loved that, I'm guessing.

There was really no reaction.

And I think the reason why is because

they could see what he was getting at.

Yeah.

And it wasn't really a surprise there.

Yeah, he did

this for a few days.

It was a surprise, however, that no one took the middle ground on guns last night.

Not a single Democrat.

Is the Glenbeck program?

American Financing Corporation, NMLS 1-8-2334, 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

So a listener of ours wrote in, Natasha, we have been homeowners for 24 years, business owners for 20 of those.

In the past, getting any kind of financing has been very painful and a long process.

I'm sure going over all our documents added a few more days to the process.

Overall, refinancing with American Financing was the best.

painless and fast experience and by far better than anything we've ever had to to endure in the past.

We will definitely use and recommend American Financing in the future.

American Financing gets the job done.

They do it quickly.

You can close sometimes in as fast, I think, as 10 days.

I encourage you to be responsible with your money.

Getting a loan for a house or refinancing your mortgage may be the right answer for you, but you have to do your own homework and you have to get it with the right people.

May I highly recommend American Financing?

I

love you

as I never

loved before.

Since first I

Homes of parents to help them deal with how to raise their children.

It's not that they don't want to help.

They don't know quite what to do.

Play the radio.

Make sure the television, excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night.

The phone.

Make sure the kids hear words.

We're just making sure the kids are hearing words.

I put the record player on.

And what kids aren't screaming for the Mills Brothers?

Oh, kids love it.

I mean,

they really love the Mills Brothers these days.

They do.

What year was this thing made?

This is a real record for you.

Yeah, this is in our studio.

This is a Columbia

Gramma Fondola.

Fondola.

Fondola.

Gramma Fondola.

I guess.

It's about 1920.

It is pretty amazing.

Yeah.

Oops, it's starting to slow down.

I think I better take it off here.

It gets a little ugly.

All right.

Let me go to Brad Meltzer, who I'm sure is listening to his gramophone

at home as well.

Hi, Brad.

How are you?

I'm good, sir.

How are you doing?

I'm very good.

Brad Meltzer, who is the author of multiple books from fiction to history, adult to children, he's a machine.

And he has a new book out called I Am Walt Disney that we tried to talk about a little bit

earlier this week, but because of the news of the day, we didn't get a chance to really talk about it.

And it is my favorite subject, I am Walt Disney.

Welcome, Brad.

How are you?

So good to hear your voice.

And I have to tell you, and I've been waiting for this talk because I know,

we know each other for over a decade now, that this was one of your heroes, too.

So, this is going to be a fun one.

Yeah, this is probably my hero.

This is probably the guy that is my hero.

Oh, the same here.

I've been waiting, you know, we started this series.

You know, listen,

we share that same love of history, and we started this series.

Also, we know that our kids today need better heroes to look up to.

It's enough to be, our kids are all looking at people who are famous for being famous.

And I started this book series to give my kids heroes of character, heroes of kindness and of compassion and of hard work.

And I've been waiting, we did I'm Amelia Earhart and Abraham Lincoln and Rosa Parks, but I've been waiting since the very first books to do I Am Walt Disney.

Now, I have to ask you, I am a fan of Walt Disney, and I know it inside out.

And you explain in the books how Mickey Mouse was born.

You don't really go into the Oswald the rabbit being taken by Universal and held until recently.

However,

that is the why.

That is why Disney is so litigious.

Because of the birth of Mickey Mouse or the death of Oswald, they don't screw around at all.

How did you get the rights to have all of the Disney characters in this book?

Listen, I had to give away one kid, but I have three.

So I felt like

that.

No, but in all seriousness, it was the question, right?

I was like, I can't tell the Walt Disney story.

It's called I Am Walt Disney.

You can't do it without having Mickey and Donald and Goofy.

It just doesn't make sense.

It would be absurd.

The beautiful part was,

and again, with a company that is, you know, knows how to kind of bring down that legal hammer.

They loved our mission.

Disney loved the mission of the Ordinary People Change the World Series.

They gave us the Muppets for I.M.

Jim Henson, and they gave us Mickey.

They gave us Donald Goofy.

They gave us, you can see in there, Pinocchio, Winnie the Pooh.

And they even opened the archives for us and gave us manuscripts that aren't even published that Walt Disney had written so we could work on the book.

And they just said, we love that you're putting better heroes out for our kids.

That's their mission, too.

And they obviously proofed the book and helped us with the book.

They drew the artist.

We did have Oswald in there in the beginning.

We did have Oswald in there, but it got too confusing because it's a book for kids, right?

It's a book for kids that are 12 and under.

But I wanted everything in there.

And one of the great things that Disney did is help us make sure all those kind of details and versions of Mickey were right, including, and listen, the creation of Mickey is, you know,

Walt Disney is the great American success story.

He gives us the happily ever after.

He gives us the magic kingdom.

But I think, and I'm guessing what you love about him, what I love about him is that it wasn't easy.

When Walt Disney started, you know, even as a little boy, his his father used to look down on him because he was like, you know, how are you going to do art?

That's never going to make you any money.

It was his aunt who used to buy him paper to draw on and said, you know, Walt, keep drawing.

Yeah, his dad was.

His dad was a real sad sack.

His dad was not helpful at all.

And yet he persevered and he went for it anyway.

Nothing could crush his dream.

Right.

And that's the point of the book.

I mean, when Walt Disney's 21 years old, he starts his first film company.

It's a total disaster.

Disaster.

Right?

He basically, they tell him he's going to have to declare bankruptcy.

He's sleeping in his office.

He's taking a bath once a week in the local train station.

And I want my kids to know that if you chase a big dream, you might fail.

But when you get back up again, that's how you fly.

Yeah.

So I noticed you didn't include the part where he and Roy killed their parents.

Yeah, or all the lights.

Which you think he would.

I mean, right?

father is literally it's almost out of a Disney movie right because yeah that's where you feel like that's where he gets all the killing of the parents from right because every movie after that that's all they do yeah and it's it's what's really

what's freaky is most people don't know this that through an accident,

Roy and Walt bought their parents a home in California.

They were just starting to make it, and they wanted to get the parents out to California so they could thank them for their life.

And it was so sweet.

And because the transaction was happening so fast, they moved in.

They get a call.

And I think it was his mom that had died first.

I think his dad had called and said,

you know, your mom has passed out.

Well, there was a gas leak.

And

they both passed away.

And neither Roy nor Walt ever spoke about it again.

I mean, I just can't imagine.

What I'm saying, but, and think about it, every Disney movie, what's the thing?

It's always the dead parent, right?

Whether it's Bambi, whether it's, you know, pick the Disney movie, Frozen, from Bambi to Frozen, there's always the dead parent, and you can't help but like psychoanalyze it.

And even, you know, and it comes, you know, I always, I think one of the great, you know, moments in terms of, and again, going back to that never dream, never giving up on your dream is even, even the creation of Mickey Mouse.

I mean, I didn't, I actually didn't know this part of the story is Walt Disney comes up with the idea.

He says, I got the idea for a cartoon mouse.

We're going to call him Mortimer.

Mortimer Mouse.

And his wife is like, Mortimer, that's a horrible name.

That's literally the direct quote we took.

It's a horrible name.

She says, why don't you call him, I don't know, Mickey.

And that's how the world gets Mickey Mouse.

The first Mickey cartoon doesn't even sell.

My son, who loves to draw, is our creative kind of plays with Lego.

He always draws things and he'll say, oh, that's not good enough.

And I put in this book, our artist, you know, it's an illustrated kid book.

You see the real first ever draft of Mickey Mouse.

You know, we put it in there, and my son's like, oh, it's not perfect.

I'm like, thank you.

I know.

And I love that he gets, you know, our kids get to see that sometimes that first draft is, you know, is a first draft and you got to make it better and better.

And my God, does Walt Disney represent that?

And we need that right now.

Our kids are, you know, we're so used to having, you know, we put him in bubble wrap and we want nothing bad to happen to him, but we got to teach our kids you learn more by falling off the bike than being on the bike.

So there's a couple of things that

I've done this mental exercise.

In the 20th century, can you,

is there somebody who made a bigger impact for good

in culture than Walt Disney?

Try to imagine an America, let alone America, the world, without Walt Disney.

We would be a totally different people.

All of our fairy tales would be still, you know, the wolf wins in the end.

Ansel and Gretel, you know, are eaten by the witch.

The fairy tales, he, and, you know, some people will argue back and forth, but he gave us this magical space and he taught us that it's okay to dream.

And the things that he brought from, I believe we would not have gone to the moon without Walt Disney, or at least we wouldn't have been able to get around it as quickly as we did as a people.

Is there somebody, Brad, in the 20th century that you think

is

more important to the American story in the 20th century than him?

Listen, he's writing the American story.

Right.

What I love,

and I'll take it, let's go even one step deeper on it, is the reason that he writes that is because it's his story.

The most authentic story we can ever tell, as you know, is is our own story.

And we all see, you know, Walt Disney grew up in Missouri in this little town that was like that town that neighbors help neighbors and people are kind to each other.

There's a train running down through the middle of town by Main Street.

And when Walt Disney is a father, he used to take his daughters to merry-grounds and they used to love the carousel in this park they used to go to in California.

But he would look around and say, you know, there's nothing fun for the whole family to do together here.

And this is the part you're going to appreciate, Glenn.

I was like, is he starts studying other places where families go together?

So he looks at amusement parks, of course, but he studies Gettysburg.

He studies all these historical sites because back then people used to take their family to go there.

And he says, we're going to build a new park.

And this park is going to have parts of the past, yesteryear.

We're going to have the future and tomorrow.

We're going to have a fantasy kind of land.

And they said, well, what about today?

Anything from today?

He said, no, nothing from today.

And when he built Disneyland, which of course is what it becomes, we all see Main Street USA and we see the origins of America and the simpler time.

What we're really seeing is Walt Disney's simpler time.

We're seeing his happy place.

It's his hometown.

That's what he's building, complete with a railroad that runs down the center.

And the whole book, what I am Walt Disney as a kids' book stands for, is to teach kids, you have to find your happy place.

We all have it.

We should never give up on it.

But it's there, and you've got to find, when you find that thing you love, you just chase it because that's the American dream, finding that happy place for yourself.

That's what we called the pursuit of happiness.

Brad, thank you so much.

My favorite of all of the books that you have written for the children,

You Got It Right.

You know I am.

I mean, I've been in the Disney vaults myself.

I've read

his

day planner.

Even they pulled that out of his vault because I was looking for something specific.

And they pulled out his day planner for me, and I went through his calendar for the whole year.

And I mean, you got it right.

You got it right.

And I thank you for that.

No, and listen, I just love the fact that you are as committed to this wonderful dream as I am.

And I got to say, Glenn, you know, I know you support me with the thrillers and the things, but doing these kids' books, I love that you help us support all this.

Yep.

Brad, thank you so much.

God bless.

X-Chair.

X-Chair is so comfortable.

You will love it.

Whether you need a chair for your home office or your office office, or if you happen to be lucky enough to be the person, I guess this would be lucky, maybe, the person that is responsible for ordering all the new stuff at the office.

Try it.

I mean, companies can't do something this big and then say, well, chip it back if you don't like it because they can't take the returns.

I mean, something this large, they just can't, they would go out of business.

That's how confident they are on X-Chair.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

So, I uh, Stu and I were just talking about the debate last night, and I would like an apology from everyone in the media and the left.

I'm sure you'll get it, by the way.

Yeah, and I think they owe America an apology.

First of all, on the small one, they said we were conspiracy theorists for saying they were going for a single-payer health care system.

We had them on tape saying this is the first step.

Obama's going to do this, then we'll come in and we will say we need a single payer.

It's not a conspiracy.

Let me quote, it's not a Trojan horse.

It's just right there.

I'm telling you.

I'm telling you, okay?

So

we were called all kinds of names for saying that.

Worse, we were called all kinds of names for saying that they don't, that they're going to come and take our guns.

How many times have you heard people say, oh, we're not going to come and take your guns.

Nobody's going to confiscate guns.

Betto last night?

And no one on the stage last night, no one on the stage was like, Well, now wait a minute.

I mean, you know, we do have a Second Amendment, or even the Hunter thing.

Well, I grew up with Hunter.

None of that.

None of that.

Is anybody going to recognize this?

And the only reason why is we don't need an apology.

We need to recognize that the people who are promising you things now are established liars.

Established liars.

And you know what?

Donald Trump can lie and say, you know, look, I'm a hundred billionaire.

Whatever.

I don't care.

That's different than, look, trust me, I'm not going to take away your guns.

I'm not trying to take away your Second Amendment right.

I'm not trying to,

like cattle, push you in to some sort of socialist health care system.

That's totally different than I didn't have sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky.

This is a lie that truly matters.

You're going to save money.

You're going to save $2,500.

The average family is going to save $2,500, and this is going to make medical costs go down.

Really?

Did it?

Why would we listen to these people?

It's so overt.

I mean, we're talking about a very short period of time from saying anyone who said a single-payer system was coming was a conspiracy theorist and most likely a racist you just didn't like barack obama because of the color of his skin and that's why you were saying these things my all the way to this where every candidate is up there talking about it my whole life i tried to figure out how people like mao stalin hitler mussolini came to power how did the people not see it the answer is they did they just didn't want to do anything about it they just didn't care it just i don't know is that it because i feel like it's it's that

at some point emotion just takes over and they don't even think about where they were before and now the big people at the top all know, and they're moving.

That's what progressivism is.

But the people underneath, I mean, they were all saying these same things as if they believed these arguments.

And I don't think, I don't even, I don't remember the conversion.

And now, the same thing with guns.

Oh, we're not going to take your guns.

We're not going to take your guns.

Hell yes, we're going to take your guns.

That's a quote.

Both of those are quotes.

I mean, it's nuts.

Wake up, America.

Wake up.

It's coming hard and fast.

This is the Glenbeck program.

Let me tell you about Relief Factor.

Relief Factor is something that has changed my life.

I was up late painting last night after I got all my stuff done,

and it is my passion.

It really is my passion.

History and

art is my passion.

And I couldn't do it just a few years ago.

I couldn't do it.

I couldn't get my hands to hold the pen or the paintbrush.

I would say to my wife, honey, could you just take this line and just make this straight?

Because my hands would shake so much from pain.

That has changed now.

I haven't asked my wife to do anything.

Can you just make this line for me?

I haven't had to ask her because it doesn't happen like that anymore because of relief Factor.

Relief Factor has taken away a good portion of my pain,

and it's really taken away all of my everyday pain.

Three-week quick start, please try it.

Just try it.

Just go to relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com, and get your life back.

I have gotten mine back.

Thousands of people all around the country and thousands of our own listeners testify to it as well.

Just try it, relieffactor.com.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

Hello, Americans.

It's Friday.

So glad that you have joined us, especially this hour, the one, the only.

Bill O'Reilly checks in about the debate and the Supreme Court and all the other nonsense from the week.

Bill O'Reilly in 60 seconds.

This is the Glenbeck program.

Okay, you know the movie.

Have you seen it yet?

You don't like...

I did not like the first one.

Really?

Yeah, so I'm not going to go to the second one.

I'm trying to convince my wife to come see it because I think she'd like it.

It's not like your typical horror film.

It's like,

what's that, Netflix?

Stranger Things, you know, souped up a bit.

But that's really what it's like.

I really enjoyed it.

Anyway, you know the dancing clown, you know, Pennywise, who just stands there with a handful of balloons and then grins at you and he's about to eat you.

Okay, and you're like, no, he's just a spooky clown, but he's not going to.

And then he does.

That's kind of the experience that I usually have with real estate agents.

They're like, we're just going to put up some balloons and people will walk through your office.

And then you're stuck.

You've been eaten.

And you haven't sold your house.

This is a bizarre

pitch for this particular service.

That's the way I feel.

Anyway, realestateagentsitrust.com.

Lots of agents, and they don't come to your house with balloons.

They come to your house with actual plans to sell your house.

If you want somebody who can help create the most value for your home, who has a long track record of success, it's time to get moving.

Realestateagentsitrust.com.

That's realestateagents I trust.com.

Bill O'Reilly, let's start first of all by reminding you that his new book, The United States of Trump, is just a few days away.

I have read it cover to cover.

It is excellent.

And it's how the president really sees America.

It's released September 24th.

I do expect some sort of a kickback for all of this uh it's the united states of trump by bill o'reilly order your copy today bill let's talk about the um

let's talk about the uh amazing debate last night who do you want to start with

Now, why would you say the debate was amazing?

Because

I don't think I've ever seen anything like it on a couple of fronts.

First of all, there wasn't a single candidate that said, Well, now wait a minute.

I grew up in a hunting family.

They all now are just saying, Yeah, we're going to come take your guns.

And we don't have a problem saying we're going to come take your guns.

The mask is fully off.

I've never seen a candidate who is leading the polls who...

Something medically is truly wrong with him.

And I think it's the aneurysms that he has had.

He just does not have a command of the language anymore.

He gets confused fairly easily.

And it's a little terrifying in a world where you have to be

on your game more than 30 minutes a day.

Okay.

Biden is befuddled.

There's no question about that.

I thought he had a pretty eloquent closing statement, although there was nobody left to watch.

Everybody had passed out long before that

about the trials in his life and that

purpose.

through that.

I thought that was really good,

so I don't think he's totally,

you know,

retirement home yet.

Okay, hang on.

I agree with you, and I think, let me just go through a list.

Stu, give me the list of what is important to the Democratic voters today.

When you look at that, you ask them to rank,

what's really important to them today?

Listen to this list, Bill.

Yeah, number one, by a wide margin, is

ability to beat Donald Trump.

39.6% of voters said the top priority was beating Donald Trump.

Top priority for 40%.

40%.

And that's significant because the second place is healthcare at 9.9%.

Third?

Yep.

Third, the economy at 8%.

Wealth and income inequality, 8%.

Climate change, 7%.

Gun policy, 4%.

Racism, 3%.

I mean, listen, their message is all geared in the 7% to 5%.

And the reason why Biden is doing well is because people just think that he'll do well against Donald Trump.

That's it.

I agree.

That's why the press is not.

I was going to run on the Barack Obama nostalgia tour.

That's clear last night.

that Biden didn't really have any solution to any problems.

And he was the only one who basically said that Beto O'Rourke and the rest of them were violating the Constitution.

You're not going to be able to seize anything by executive order.

Congress makes the laws, so you can't do that.

That seemed to startle Mr.

O'Rourke, who just got through blaming the massacre in El Paso on President Trump.

You know, he came across as a clown.

I guess maybe the clown in that movie you want to go see.

I'm not sure, but

he came across as a clown.

It was just,

come on,

is this a burlesque skit?

What is this?

I mean, the guy doesn't have any grasp of how the country runs.

I'm going to do that.

I'm going to.

I'm going to take this.

I'm going to do it.

No, you're not.

And Biden actually said that and got jeered for doing it.

So basically, how I see this thing is it was a very good night for Donald Trump.

Okay?

Because even though the president continues to shoot himself in every toe and finger he has by his lack of self-discipline, the alternative to the music.

Can they just stop you for a while?

Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

How do you, anyone who says anything like that,

Donald Trump says, you're a loser.

You're a two-time loser.

You're a hundred-fold loser.

And yet, you are invited to write a book about him.

He invites you to.

You don't want me to write the book back.

No, no, no, no, no.

And you're doing a Larry King amazing.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Wait, wait, wait.

Do you think if I said those words and only those words, he would say, yeah, you want to write a book?

Okay, come on, Air Force One.

I'll spend the time.

Choice in the matter.

I was writing a book whether I was on Air Force One or not.

I know that, but usually

you'd write a book after saying something like that, and he'd be like, he's a hack.

There's nothing to this book.

He actually participated with you on this.

He actually answered some of your questions.

The truth about the President of the United States.

I'm not accusing him of doing anything heinous.

I'm saying he lacks self-discipline when somebody

tees him off.

Yeah, I know.

Part of my point.

It hurts him.

I know.

It hurts him and the country.

I know.

So that's in the book.

Right.

I know.

And then I explain how that happened to him, how that all evolved.

But let's get back

to he was the big winner last night.

So what you have is you've got a field of Democrats who basically are looking at the camera and saying, I'm going to spend

trillions of dollars, even though we have a $22 trillion debt right now, I'm going to add maybe 30 trillion more to save your life from climate change.

And then Rod Serling goes, you're traveling in another dimension.

And I'm saying to myself,

we're true, which it isn't, all right?

We're not dying in 10 or 20 or 30 years unless we have to listen to Beto O'Rourke every day, then we'll all commit suicide.

Well, that's not going to happen.

So tell me what your thoughts are on Elizabeth Warren.

I know you wrote an op-ed on her this week.

Yes, called The Con, C-O-N, posted right now on billorilly.com.

Dangerous woman.

And she's dangerous because she comes across as a hip granny.

All right?

It's got the glasses, the little bob.

And then kids go, oh, let's go trick-or-treating to Mrs.

Warren's house.

Yeah.

And then they do, and she takes their stuff.

She takes the candy away from them.

All right?

This is a woman who does not respect private property.

That's the headline.

Now, twice last night, she was asked direct questions.

One by Jorge Ramos.

Jorge goes, What would you do, Senator Warren, if a person overstayed his or her visa in the United States?

What would you do?

Warren didn't even come close to answering the question.

Then the next question, I don't even know if it was from.

Would you raise taxes on American middle-class families to pay for your massive health care giveaway?

Here's Stephanopoulos.

Let's play that.

Here's Stephanopoulos asking her that and her answer.

Warren doesn't say taxes will go up.

Direct question.

You said middle-class families are going to pay less, but will middle-class taxes go up to pay for the program?

I know you believe that the deductibles and the premiums will go down.

Will middle-class taxes go up?

Will private insurance be eliminated?

Look, what families have to deal with is cost.

Total cost.

That's what they have to deal with.

And understand, families are paying for their health care today.

Families pay every time an insurance company says, sorry, you can't see that specialist.

Every time an insurance company says, sorry, that doctor is out of network.

Sorry, we are not covering that prescription.

Families are in pain every time.

They don't get a prescription filled because they can't pay for it.

They don't have a lump checked out because they can't afford the co-pay.

What we're talking about here is what's going to happen in families' pockets.

What's going to happen in their budgets?

And the answer is on Medicare for all.

Costs are going to go up for wealthier individuals and costs.

are going to go up for giant corporations.

But for hardworking families across this country, costs are going to go down, and that's how it should work under Medicare for all in our health care system.

So, costs will go down.

She didn't say that taxes wouldn't go up.

She said costs will go down, but that's what Barack Obama said: that

this system of Obamacare would reduce things by $2,500 for the average family, which was a total and complete lie.

Here's the con.

Okay.

Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and all the rest of the Mary Socialist band somehow believe that they can go into corporate America and demand 40 to 50 percent of their profits be given to the federal government.

They believe they can do that.

What would happen would be all of those corporations would leave the country.

Leave the country and set up overseas just as they had under Barack Obama.

Trump brought them back by cutting the corporate income rates.

That's why we have a robust economy.

People like me and you, Beck, that have assets,

I'm not going to sit here and allow Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders to seize my private property, which has already been taxed.

I'm going to move it out of here.

So the flight capital

between corporations and affluent Americans would lead to a depression in this country.

That's the con.

You are exactly right.

Now,

I want you to take this, hold that thought for a minute, because

I want to build on that and get your opinion because

you are spot on

exactly right.

A depression will happen if socialists come in and start to say, we're going to tax you to death and we're going to take the wealth that you have already been taxed on and double tax it as well.

We're going to move from a free market to a controlled and planned economy.

It will collapse.

Hold that thought

and we'll be back in one minute.

The gun laws on the books in this country are already legion.

I mean,

we are,

the laws on the books that already exist could stop most of these things if we actually did them.

But it's not even the gun that is the problem.

And we're looking at gun rights all wrong.

It's not about hunting.

It's not about sportsmen.

It's not about collectors.

It's not even really truly about self-defense in your home against a bad guy.

That is part of it.

But it's actually the Second Amendment is about a government gone completely insane and keeping them at bay.

We cannot lose our rights, and they are going to do all kinds of things.

They're going to come at you with all kinds of taxes.

They're going to come at you with insurance problems.

They're going to make sure that the bankings don't do business with certain groups of people.

They're going to do everything.

That's why we have to have strong groups protecting the Second Amendment.

The U.S.

Concealed Carry Association, this is why they exist.

They provide self-defense education, training, and legal protection to over 300,000 responsibly armed Americans like you and me, and they are growing daily.

This month, they are giving away $1,000 to 19 lucky winners for free.

You could buy a new gun, you could buy a SIG, a Glock, anything else you need to protect yourself and your loved ones, anything else that you think is required to make sure that you keep a government at bay.

When, as George Washington said, government is like a fire.

When you are afraid of the fire, it controls you.

The fire is out of control.

Our First Amendment, our Second Amendment, and all of the Bill of Rights are the way to get us out of this mess.

The USCCA believes in helping protect every responsible American.

Standard message and data rates do apply.

We pause for 10 seconds, station ID.

Okay, Bill, I want to ask you a series of questions here, and I'll get to my theory, and then I really want to hear your opinion of it.

One, if the economy goes south,

Trump loses.

Yes or no?

I mean, if it really goes south.

It's a harder for him.

The Democrats have two issues that resonate: the health care that we just discussed and the guns that you just discussed.

Both are attractive to a fairly large segment of the American population.

Trump can get around that if the economy is robust,

because the Republicans really haven't come up with any health care relief.

Nope.

Okay, they don't have anything.

On the gun front, I do expect they'll make a few attempts to

control maniacs from getting heavy weaponry, but it'll take a while and it's, you know, it's not

there's nothing there's nothing exciting except we are freeing the American people and the American people are doing better than they have for a long, long long time.

Lowest unemployment rate for blacks in history, all of that stuff, correct?

Yes, but also Donald Trump has a big opportunity now

to go out and stop with the small ball and go to the big picture and say, look, your freedom is important to me, the president.

I'm the president.

And your freedom is important.

And if you look at what this Democratic Party really wants, it's an erosion of freedom on every front.

I just have a new slogan on billorilly.com.

It used to be, take your country back.

I've changed it to fight for your freedom.

Because the far left in this country, which includes 90% of the media, wants to erode personal freedoms, not only of guns, but on every level, every level.

And if Trump can get that across, he'll be reelected.

But I'm not sure he can.

Okay.

So I just want to get a yes or no.

Really, a yes or no question.

Trump will have a very difficult time if the economy tanks.

Yes, he has a difficult time.

There is a load of investment coming from overseas right now.

Money is pounding into our treasury and also into Wall Street because we're the only place that's really performing because of American freedom.

Yes or no?

Not the only place, but one of the few.

can make money as America.

Do you agree that companies and the banks, if somebody says, I'm going to change the free market system to more of a planned economy, and, oh, by the way, I'm going to break up all these banks,

that would cause a significant impact on what those companies do with their money.

And if they thought that person might win, that they would go into

kind of a protection position, which would not be good for the stocks and companies.

Flight of capital and hoarding of profits will lead to unemployment tripling.

Correct.

So

don't the Democrats have a reason to hire somebody?

I mean, you want to talk about

a short walk or a long walk on a short pier to socialism by just really spooking the markets.

Whoever that person is, Bernie, I mean, Elizabeth Warren

is an easier candidate perhaps to defeat, but she will spook the markets and companies so much that it could really impact the economy, which would really hurt Donald Trump because she'll blame it on him.

She'll blame it on capitalism and everything else when indeed it would be a reaction to her.

I don't believe she has that kind of power.

Even if she is the candidate?

No.

Wow.

I think that the smart money will say she has no chance she's George McGovern.

That would be great.

Well, I know Aunt Mimi will vote for her, but I don't know too many other people who actually are working for a living that are supporting Elizabeth Warren.

I don't know.

I mean, outside of Cambridge, Massachusetts and Beverly Hills, California, the regular folks,

I mean, they don't want a socialist in there.

They just don't.

All right.

We're back with Bill O'Reilly.

We got to go to the Supreme Court and the border, what's happening there, and the Supreme Court on refugees.

Looks like they backed the president.

What does this mean?

And don't forget, his new book comes out,

The

What is it called again here?

Shoot.

The United States of Trump.

It comes out on the 24th, How the president really sees America.

It's very insightful.

It comes out now.

Order it.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

And be one of the first.

Also, Bill O'Reilly is going to be joining me on our cruise through history.

David Barton, Rabbi Lappen, Bill will be there.

Pat and Stu will be there.

Also, if you're one of the last people, we have, I don't know how many, it's a couple dozen cabins left now.

And we want to sell this out.

This will be the first time anybody has sold out an entire cruise liner.

I mean,

this is over 3,000 people.

Nobody's ever done that on these, you know, hey, come cruise with me.

It's usually like 200 people.

We have a couple of dozen

cabins left.

If you order now, usually the last in doesn't get anything special.

We're going to throw a special cocktail party in honor of you.

And Stu or Pat are going to host it.

You know, I'll stop by.

It'll be lots of fun.

And you'll get one of the first copies signed of my new book, Arguing with Socialists.

So make sure you join us.

A lot of fun, a lot of history, and everybody you love hanging out with you.

Welcome to Mr.

Bill O'Reilly.

Bill,

let's spend a few more minutes here, just for a second, on guns.

The press and

the Democrats owe America an explanation.

Just

12 months ago, they were telling us, no one's coming for your guns.

Now all of them on stage are talking about coming for our guns.

At the same time, they say we can't round up 20 million Americans who are just good people, law-abiding citizens.

They seem to be able to round up 21 million guns from,

I guess, terrorists as they would view these people that have these guns.

How are they planning on doing this?

And is anybody ever going to recognize, hey, you just told us you weren't for gun confiscation.

Now you're saying, yeah, we are going to do it.

Well, I mean, look, all of these Democratic candidates for president have to run to the ultra-left.

You can't have anybody in there who isn't a crazy leftist on the stage.

I mean, Biden, last night, Biden said that every person in the world who applies for asylum in America should be allowed into the country.

That's craziness.

I mean, we're talking, what, 50 million people all over the country, even more, if everybody in China could get over here.

Well, I don't want to live in a communist China.

They're going to shoot me.

So, and then Biden also said,

no one who commits a nonviolent crime should be in prison.

Well, the burglar is all

celebrated.

Hey, hey, oh, hey, that's a good.

We'll just break into everybody's house, nonviolent, and we don't have to go to prison.

Joe Biden said it.

So what I'm trying to get across is no matter what they say, it doesn't mean anything.

The only way that gun confiscation could happen is if both houses of Congress passed a law that listed certain firearms that were not allowed to be in the United States of America.

Immediately, that would be challenged constitutionally.

immediately and seven years from now maybe we'd have some definition but congress is never going to do that as long as there's a Republican Party.

All right, let's talk about the Supreme Court.

Supreme Court this week ruled in favor of Donald Trump.

Tell me the ramifications.

Okay, so what the case was,

was that the Trump administration says we have a crisis on the border because millions of people are trying to get in here and claim asylum.

And once they put foot on our soil, they can stay in America as long as it takes for their asylum case to be heard in the courts, and that could be three, four years.

So we can't, as a country, absorb millions of people theoretically who are going to claim asylum.

That makes sense to everybody, right?

Yeah.

You just can't.

So the Trump administration says in order for an asylum seeker to have any credibility with the government, you have to claim asylum in the first foreign country you get to.

So therefore, if you're in Honduras, the first foreign country you get to and you're seeking of asylum is Guatemala.

So

you've got to apply there for asylum.

If things are so bad in Tegucigalpa, then you want to, maybe Guatemala will help you.

But anyway, that's the first step.

You've got to do it.

If you're in Guatemala, first step is you've got to apply for asylum in Mexico.

So this cuts down.

all the cases that we have to immediately adjudicate on asylum.

And it makes it easy for for us to be able to say, did you apply for asylum in the first country you got?

No, I didn't.

Okay, go home.

We don't have to have a court hearing.

You can't apply here unless you do that.

So the Trump administration made that rule.

And immediately a leftist judge said, oh, no, you can't make that rule.

It's unconstitutional immediately.

And then the Supreme Court heard it and said seven to two, which surprised me.

Seven to two, no, the administration has the power to make a rule about asylum if the administration sees a threat to the country.

And obviously, there's a threat to the country because all these children wouldn't be separated from their parents and they wouldn't be sleeping on the floor if tens of thousands of them didn't overwhelm our facilities on the southern border.

Our facilities are overwhelmed.

Our courts are overwhelmed.

That obviously is a huge problem that the Supreme Court recognized and said, no, the federal government has to take steps to mitigate the problem.

So it was a logical ruling, certainly within the Constitution, but it just shows you the madness of

Biden last night.

Anybody who gets here, anybody and says, I want asylum, should be allowed to live here as long as it takes.

Anybody.

You can't absorb, the country cannot absorb that many people.

We have $22 trillion debt now.

And then everyone on the stage would give all of those people free health care.

What happens when the Democrats pick a candidate and they're going head-to-head, and now they have to go back to the center?

What happens to their base?

Well, Biden, oh, their base.

Okay.

See, Biden will be able to do that easy.

Yes.

But the others won't.

If Warren or Sanders, and they're the only three that have a chance, just Biden, Warren, and Sanders.

That's it.

And let's be honest, Sanders doesn't have a chance.

Doesn't have a chance.

No, I agree with you.

You agree with me.

He's out.

So

Warren, she can't backtrack, but Biden could.

Now, your question is, what about this far-left base?

There aren't that many of these people.

The reason that we deal with this every single day of our lives is because of the media.

The media trumpets them, spotlights them.

But as far as numbers are concerned, you just read the numbers.

What is climate change number 18 on the list?

It's 6%, 7%.

It's the media that propels this far-left socialist movement into the forefront.

And then the conservative media overreacts to them.

All right, because they are unbelievably dopey and

threatening and a problem.

I I said Elizabeth Warren is dangerous.

She is.

So the combination of

the enabling by the mainstream media and the reaction from the conservative media means it's all far left all the time.

All right, your new book comes out a week from Tuesday, and it's how the president really sees America, and you really explain

where he's coming from, how he got

to his thinking process in a way that I think is very helpful.

I mean, the media, every member of the media should read this because you would start to understand the president.

You may not, you'll never, you know, necessarily agree with him because of reading your book, but you will look at that and go, okay, I can see how he got there.

I can see how he thinks.

But, Beck, they don't want to understand.

No, I know that.

I know that.

They want to hate him.

No, I know that.

I mean, you know, come on.

I know.

Every responsible.

Every regular American who loves his or her country, don't you really want to know how Trump pulled this off?

There's only one other person that might have been able to do this.

That's Oprah Winfrey.

How on earth did he get to be president?

How?

Don't you really want to know that?

Well, you see, I tell you,

I think that's a bad spin of the book.

I want to know how this president arrives at the conclusions that he arrives at, why he acts the way he does.

And I think

that does answer the how, but

that's not really the point of your book.

There are two points of the book.

Najee.

How he pulled it off, which is absolutely factual history,

and his brilliance

in formulating a philosophy that allowed him to win.

And how he arrived at all of the things that he's done.

Now, it's not a pro-Trump book in the sense that I'm not boostering him.

I'm saying this is how he sees America.

I don't know what book you wrote and which one I read, because what I got out of the book was how he sees things and how he arrived at those things, not his policies or anything else, but when he does something.

He's a policy book.

When he does.

You and I are

agreeing.

It's just that the wording is different.

Yeah, when you look.

You got to understand,

if you want to know the history of your time, the time that you're living in, you got to understand how Donald Trump pulled this off and how he thinks.

Yeah, how he thinks is fascinating.

And the questions that you asked, I thought,

were very brave, and I wish he would have been more forthcoming on some of them.

But you did.

But I got his son.

I know you got his son.

His son

filled in the blanks that he didn't want to answer.

All right, so here's a question on his son, and it's on Baron.

I think that this whole vaping thing is because Melania caught Baron or one of Baron's friends vaping.

Now, do you have anything to bake that up?

None.

That's absolute nothing.

Nothing to back that up.

Look, Baron Trump, you got to feel sorry for the kid.

He's shadowed by Secret Service every second of his life.

All right, it's not like he can go out and skateboard down Pennsylvania Avenue.

All right, so he's not vaping back.

Okay, so help me out.

This is what I'm really asking you.

Help me out.

Where did this come from?

The vaping thing?

Yes.

It's just basically Trump is a Puritan, and I'm sure you picked this up from reading the book.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

He's a Puritan about drinking, about drugging, and about smoking.

Trump doesn't want any part of that.

He's never done any of it.

That's one thing that Trump and I have in common.

I've never been drunk.

I've never used a drug, and I've never spoken.

All right.

And Trump is like a fanatic about those things, and there's a reason, and it has to do with his older brother.

Well, both of you have missed some really good times and some very needed black guys.

I'm doing all three right now.

Bill O'Reilly thinks I'd be in prison for life.

I know.

I know.

You know what I mean?

I know.

No,

I often say that I have an allergy to alcohol.

I break out in handcuffs.

It's not good.

It's not good.

I'm so glad I was an athlete, played four sports, never got involved with it, and it served me well.

Okay, Bill O'Reilly, thank you so much.

Again, you can order his new book, The United States of Trump.

It's coming out a week from Tuesday.

Excellent.

Bill, we'll talk to you again next week.

Okay, thanks for having me in.

You backpointing.

All right.

Sponsor this half hour is to COVID.

They got a great offer going on for you right now.

If you decide that these boots are the boots for you, they make beautiful, beautiful, high-quality boots.

It is twice the quality of a boot that is similar price range.

Or it's half the price of a boot that is made with this quality.

Whichever way you look at it, it is quality, you're going to love it, and you're not going to pay just nosebleed prices for something of real quality.

It takes over 200 steps to make a Takovis boot, and the reason why that they are inexpensive is because they cut out the middleman.

You buy them online and I know that seems like a weird thing maybe to buy a shoe online, but they make it really super easy.

And they'll just, you know, you can send the boot back if it's not right, and they'll send you the one that is right.

I mean, it's really, really super easy.

And that's why

it's so successful.

And that's also the reason why they can charge the prices that they do.

Now they never run specials, but they're going to do something.

If you buy something there for $150, you get a purchase and you're checking out and you see it's $150 or more, they're going to send you a really nice hand-stitched calfskin card case wallet.

It's a card case.

I put my cards and my cash in there and it's beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

$150 purchase.

You get one of those for free.

It's like a $50 value.

All you have to do is visit to COVID.com Beck, T-E-C-O-V-A-S.com/slash Beck.

Find your pair, and don't forget, enter the promo code Beck at checkout.

This is the Glimbeck program.

We bring social workers into homes of parents to help them deal with how to raise their children.

It's not that they'll want to help.

They don't know quite what to do.

Play the radio.

Make sure the television, excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night.

The phone.

Make sure the kids hear words.

Oh, geez.

And the phonograph broke.

Well, that's the.

Well, it's not a phonograph.

It's a wax cylinder.

And

I didn't know if he was really meaning the phonograph or the wax cylinder.

And because,

I mean, I haven't heard anybody talk about a phonograph in a very long time.

It's been a while.

We brought out the wax cylinder.

That's kids why you don't play with the wax cylinders, you know, because

you just put the Mills brothers on in the

old Edison gramophone.

So, anyway,

we do have a list of the amounts of money that

Hang on, I just have to just cut the sales.

The cost of their global warming initiatives that they spoke about last night

to save your life.

This is just the climate spending.

This is eighth place.

Andrew Yang only wants to spend $4.9 trillion.

But that's it.

And he's in eighth place.

He's in eighth place.

In seventh place.

Yes.

Betto O'Rourke, only 6.5 trillion dollars he wants to spend on the planet that's it that's it basically nothing and he can come get that money while he's getting your guns that's the nice thing very nice yeah uh biden uh-huh in sixth place wants to spend only six point seven trillion dollars

speak right into the year here what what did you say six point seven trillion dollars six point seven trillion you say

uh so then fifth place buttigej only wants to uh spend about seven point five trillion.

Okay.

That's not too bad.

Then in fourth place, Amy Klobuchar only wants to spend $7 to $8 trillion.

So it could only be $7 trillion.

Could be $8.

Could be $8 trillion, but not a ridiculous number.

Always overestimate these numbers.

Corey Booker and Elizabeth Warren tied for third.

Both going to spend about $8 trillion.

Not too bad.

Second place, Harris and Castro, they're tied.

They got into the double digits.

$10 trillion.

$10 trillion.

Coming in at number one.

And he's going to to do this.

He's going to get to net zero emissions without any use of nuclear power somehow.

Bernie Sanders only wants to spend $16.3 trillion.

Wow, that's it.

I mean, I want that spending doubled.

I want 30 trillion, 40 trillion.

If we're the richest country in the world, and this is the biggest threat.

I mean, why stop at 16.3 trillion?

16 trillion?

That's chomp change.

We need real visionaries on this who can spend 40 trillion in the first year.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

All right, our cruise through history

is

happening.

David Barton, Rabbi Lappen, Bill O'Reilly is going to be there.

We're hosting daily shows.

We have a sailing museum full of historic items to help make the points.

So when you get off from Athens, we're going to be telling you, okay, so we took this, this, and this, and this is how it helped build the Republic of America.

Grab your tickets now, this last two weeks.

It's come saileaway.com.

Come saileaway.com.

Get all the details and come sail away with us.

The fusion

of entertainment and enlightenment.

Hello, America.

It's Friday.

We're glad you're here.

We have two people that joined us yesterday from the audience.

We said, who is willing to watch the debate and then come back and report on all of it?

You know, Stu,

he watched it, of course, but you know.

And you did too.

Yeah, of course.

How do you create?

So Darren and Gabrielle watched it, so you didn't have to.

And one of them gave us a one-sheet, and the other one gave us a four-page outline plus a three-page op-ed.

One of these people is going to be making more, you know, than the other, I think, when we get down to it.

We'll talk to Darren and Gabrielle

when we come back.

One minute.

First, let me tell you,

the things that I absolutely love

are things that make problems go away.

Problems with your car.

There's nothing better than saying, does my Car Shield policy cover this?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We've already talked to Car Shield.

It's all taken care of.

Really?

Thank you.

Thank you, Car Shield.

If you don't have a warranty on your car, if it's lapsed, it's over,

you really need some sort of coverage because some of those stupid chips that control everything, when they go out, it's not like you run down to the auto parts store and just grab a chip and put it in.

I don't even know where it is.

I don't even know how.

I don't even know where they put all the chips or what the chips do or how you would even find them.

Now, I know I'm a moron,

but most of this stuff you can't fix yourself, and it costs you a buttload of money.

Not if you have Car Shield.

If it's a covered repair, man, you are going to be singing their praises like I have sung their praises over and over again.

They've saved me thousands of dollars on repairs.

So I want to bring Darren and Gabrielle.

Darren is from Florida.

Hello, Darren.

How are you?

I'm doing well, thank you.

Good, good.

Did you enjoy yourself last night?

I couldn't put it into words.

Yeah, right, right, right.

A hundred bucks was not enough, was it?

No.

Yeah, it wasn't.

Gabrielle is in Pennsylvania.

And Gabrielle, you're a student, right?

I just graduated, sir, from Grove City College.

Okay.

And you're in Pennsylvania.

And what do you want to do with your life again?

Well, I am trying to create a career in media and public and political education.

So I want to, although I want to pursue graduate study, I currently am the editor-in-chief of the Unvarnished blog, where I'm trying to sh share some strong and solid political analysis you can trust, sir.

Okay.

So take a guess, Stu, which one of these gave us one sheet of analysis and the other one gave me four pages of very comprehensive notes, including a grading system in four different categories for each of them and a three-page editorial.

I'm on the fence on this one.

I don't know.

It's very difficult to do.

Darren, guess which one is you?

I'm guessing I gave you the summary.

Yeah, you gave us the one-page summary.

And kids, I just want you to know,

this is the way the world works.

Darren is a man, so he's going to make $100.

Gabrielle is a woman.

We're paying her $76.

Even after this work.

Even after all of

this work.

Okay, so let me go back and forth with both of you.

First of all,

was there a winner in your eyes if you were a Democrat watching this?

Let's start with Darren and then go to you, Gabrielle.

I did not see a

clear winner.

Okay.

Gabrielle.

I agree with Darren.

I didn't see a clear winner.

However, the person who I thought lost the least was Elizabeth Warren.

Okay.

Let's start with ⁇

let's go back and forth.

Tell me your analysis, starting with Darren, on Biden last night.

What did you think?

Other than

the one comment where you kind of confused me about the

record player and everything, I thought he, throughout the pretty much the whole night, he had really good energy, good passion, and you seem to do a lot better when responding to attacks directly to him.

And Gabrielle, I've read your four pages.

You disagree?

Yes, sir, I do.

I do not believe he handles himself well under the attacks from Julian Castro.

I think he made at least one blunder every time he spoke.

And I also didn't appreciate how when the moderators tried to cut him off, everybody else on the stage continued with their point and finished their thought, where Biden just abruptly ended.

I think that hurt him significantly.

So

do either of you think that his,

and I don't say this

I say this with the knowledge that he has had two aneurysms.

One, they did not think he'd be able to speak again, and it's happened recently.

They had to cut his head open, and they didn't think he would have the ability to speak.

He has recovered.

I don't think that he's senile.

I think he's had an aneurysm, and it has affected his speech center.

Is it would either of you think that he's close if he was in your family to the family saying, Hey, grandpa, we got to take the keys from the car from me on the car?

Darren?

I would

maybe I just I have it just kind of baked into his personality that

you know being being his age that's the way it's going to be but yes I would I would have some concerns yeah

Gabrielle

I definitely would have some concerns I think Joe Biden is the the lovable grandpa of the bunch and that it would be hey grandpa let me drive you instead of instead of you driving yourself I don't think he's really capable of handling himself any longer in the policy space.

Okay, so tell me about, let's go to Kamala Harris.

How did she do?

Darren, first.

She

way too many zingers,

be it against Trump or just in general.

But she did direct her attacks more so specifically at Trump as opposed to the rest of the

Democratic field.

And Gabrielle?

I think I agree with Darren that she did make herself very strongly anti-Trump.

However, I don't think she did a decent enough job in defining herself as what she is for.

All the other candidates seemed to

define their platforms, but where Harris just made her platform solely anti-Trump.

So

let me go to the attack on

Biden and your reaction to this attack from Julian Castro play the authority.

They wouldn't have to buy in.

That's a big difference because Barack Obama's vision was not to leave 10 million people uncovered.

He wanted every single person in this country covered.

My plan would do that.

Your plan would not.

They do not have to buy in.

They do not have to buy in.

You just said that.

You just said that two minutes ago.

You just said two minutes ago that they would have to buy in.

You said they would have to buy in.

If she's qualified for the business.

Are you forgetting what you said to me?

Are you forgetting already what you said just two minutes ago?

I mean, I can't believe that.

Then he looks to Bernie Sanders and says, what did he say?

That they had to buy in, and now you're saying they don't have to buy.

You're forgetting that.

I think this makes Castro absolutely toxic.

Agree or disagree?

I agree.

100% agree.

Did not make him come off very good, making Biden enemy number one.

Yeah.

And let me go to another crowd pleaser, if you will.

Let's go go to Betto, where Betto was talking about, you know, confiscation of guns.

Here's this moment.

The high impact, high-velocity round, when it hits your body, shreds everything inside of your body because it was designed to do that so that you would bleed to death on a battlefield and not be able to get up and kill one of our soldiers.

When we see that being used against children, And in Odessa, I met the mother of a 15-year-old girl who was shot by an AR-15, and that mother watched her bleed to death over the course of an hour because so many other people were shot by that AR-15 in Odessa in Midland.

There weren't enough ambulances to get to them in time.

Hell yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47.

We're not going to allow it to be used against our fellow Americans anymore.

Darren, your thought on that?

I just thought it was just red meat.

throwing it out there for everybody.

Do you think he doesn't mean it?

Oh, yeah, he absolutely means it.

I don't think he would be able to do it initially, but I think that's just

his main focus, his main point for the whole night, and just kind of threw that out there.

How do you think

there wasn't a single person really on the stage that

disagreed with that in spirit?

Nobody was the reasonable Democrat saying, hey, you know, I'm a member of the NRA, or my dad was.

And

there was no happy gun talk that usually

preceded stuff like this.

Nobody was saying, we're not going to come for your guns.

How did that play, do you think, Darren?

I just think they're, you know, just the Overton window.

Just keep going further and further and take a little bit progressively.

Gabrielle, your thoughts?

Well, I think it was very interesting that when

it was in response to Kamala Harris's decision to

support a mandatory buyback of assault weapons by via executive order.

Biden came out saying you can't do that constitutionally.

And it was very interesting to see how quickly he was shut down, not only by the other candidates, but also by the moderators.

I think that speaks just to the radicalism of the entire Democratic Party right now.

Including the press.

One last thought.

Is there anyone

that you saw last night and you had a gun to your head and you had to vote for one of them.

Who do you think could do the least amount of damage?

Wow.

I'm thinking maybe Pete Buttigig.

I mean, I definitely don't agree with all of his policies, but I think it would be the least worst

policymaker.

And Gabrielle?

I would have to say Andrew Yang.

I don't know necessarily enough about him, however, he seemed definitely to be the only candidate on that stage who supported any type of entrepreneurial values, any type of capitalist values.

You could see that incorporated into a variety of elements of his platform.

So as a capitalist, I would have to vote Andrew Yang.

I will tell you, Andrew Yang, they laughed at him on his closing, where he was saying, I'm going to give $1,000 a month to 12 people.

And

if you think you can control your life better,

tell me why you think this $1,000.

And what he's doing is he's coming up with universal basic income, which doesn't work.

They test it over and over and over again, and it just doesn't work.

But,

you know, he was laughed at that.

And what he was saying was really kind of good.

You are responsible for your own life.

While he was touting universal basic income, he was saying we've got to get this government back in the hands of the people.

One last opposite, who's the most dangerous?

I would say Bernie.

Definitely Bernie, isn't it?

Gabrielle?

Ideologically, I would agree with Darren that Bernie Sanders is the worst.

However, in terms of who has the actual chance to win, I think Elizabeth Warren is the most dangerous.

She has very similar views to Sanders.

However, she is in a package that can appeal to a large section of the American public.

Gabrielle and Darren, thank you so much.

You guys are both great, and I appreciate it.

Do we have the picture of

Gabrielle's campaign headquarters?

Did we get that picture, Bowie?

Yeah.

Here she is.

Look at this.

Here's Darren's.

We have that picture.

Yeah, there's Darren's.

It's a lazy boy.

Guys, thank you.

Hey, can we post your notes and stuff on Glennbeck.com?

Absolutely.

Please do.

Darren?

Yes, sir.

Yeah, can we do that?

Yeah.

Are you even listening to us anymore?

I am listening, and yes, you can post.

Okay, good.

Listen to this.

This is from that editorial that Gabby or Gabrielle wrote.

She says, in comparison to VP Biden and Senator Sanders, Warren came across as trustworthy and a qualified contender.

Maintaining her characteristic staunch, stiff demeanor, Warren balances a persona of classical diplomatic politician with a radical agenda of fundamentally transforming the American economy and government.

Although far from the ideological mainstream, Warren presents herself as a clear foil to President Trump's hasty, flamboyant style, giving her a significant edge to the average American voter who is weary of Trump's governance by game show.

More importantly, however, is the unfortunate reality that Americans are looking to trust their national leaders again.

According to Gallup's longitudinal study of trust in government, only 41% of Americans in January 2019 had at least a fair amount of trust in the federal government, down 10%

from 2016.

Warren's understated self-confidence has the capacity to command trust if people are willing to listen to her message.

With her continued battle cry of necessary reforms in every sphere of life, ranging from listening to unionists to environmentalists and shaping the trade policy to universal child care and education, from birth to the university.

Warren clearly

conveys the message of, I am government and I am here to help.

And

that is true.

That's why she's saying I have a plan for

everything.

Can you just read some from Darren's op-ed?

I don't have that one yet.

I don't have that one.

Are you sure?

No.

He still gets more money, though, than her, right?

I have Warren disappeared for a while after

her first healthcare segment.

And I will say that was true.

That was a good observation.

Yeah, it was.

You know, there's also some other stats that are interesting.

The Democrats are always pointing to the future, and we have said this over and over and over again.

Look, how are these people going to take us into the future when one of the guys leading it is talking about make sure you put on the photograph for the kiddos when you get home.

Wait a minute, what?

Well, Stu found a

really interesting,

not survey, but historic fact about who wins in the Democratic election when there is a Republican incumbent.

Yeah, it's pretty interesting to summarize it.

No,

the last time a Democratic

non-incumbent that was over 52 years old won the presidency.

Okay, so

obviously a president running again is a different story, but a non-incumbent running for the Democrats that was over 52 years old, the last one that won, Woodrow Wilson.

Every other Democratic candidate that has run and been over 55 years old has lost.

And everyone that has been under 52 years old has won.

Which makes since 1960, I think, yeah.

If you're you're saying,

you know, we're the future, we're the future.

Because you look at that and it just, you know, we're tired of these old ideas.

That guy's been in Congress since 1972.

You know, it just doesn't compute.

And it's why they thought that, you know, Betto would be so great.

But who does that leave?

Who's under 52 on this field?

Harris, Klobuchar,

Buddha Judge.

Yep.

He's 11.

Yang.

Betto is mentally eight.

Yeah.

Does that count?

Right.

But Warren is not.

No, I know.

What is really interesting, and the one thing I think helping Warren here is

there are multiple candidates older than her, so people are forgetting that she's just as old as Hillary Clinton, right?

How old is Warren?

Can we look that up?

She doesn't look it, though.

No, she looks younger than Hillary.

Yeah.

But she's basically the same age.

And, you know, you have Bernie, who is almost the same as Biden.

70.

She's older than Clinton.

Clinton was 69 when she ran.

So, you know, she's not older than Clinton at this moment, but she's a little bit more.

She looks like a fun, nice grandma.

She's 70.

Biden is 76.

What's his face?

Sanders is 76.

Okay, Biden's 78.

No.

76.

And Sanders is 78.

Yeah, Yeah, he's older.

I mean, really, I mean, I know Mike Gravelle dropped out.

He's only 89.

Right.

I don't know.

Maybe they should go back to that well because

this is.

It's crazy.

And it hasn't worked for Democrats in the past.

Right.

Because, you know, that idea that it's supposed to inspire change.

You want someone, I guess, younger to do that.

And to do that.

In that pool.

Yeah.

You know, the World War II era is over with Jack Kennedy.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.

All right.

Welcome to the program.

I'm so glad that you have tuned in.

This is the third most listened to show in all of America.

We're glad that you are

one of those underachievers with us.

Number one, tries so hard and everybody's trying to stab him in the back.

Number two, of course, we learned from Avis, has to try harder.

Number three, just kind of skates.

You know,

we're just kind of drifting right behind number two and just kind of letting them do all the work.

And if that's who you are, you're in the right place.

Welcome.

Welcome to it.

Maybe that's what's keeping you out of the Radio Hall of Fame.

Have you considered that?

Well, it could be that, or I was told by the head of the Radio Hall of Fame, you will never be in this.

It could be that.

And so far, that prediction has come true.

Yeah.

I think I'm the only national broadcaster not in the Hall of Fame.

Here's some comfort, though.

The fabulous sports babe is in.

So that's

a little comfort.

Yeah.

How's Foreigner doing on your

Hall of Fame?

This is interesting because maybe my years of hard work and persistence have finally paid off.

No difference.

According to a couple of websites.

Oh, a couple of websites.

Cleveland.com.

Okay.

Not just any downstream website.

That's Cleveland.com and ultimateclassicrock.com.

They have both predicted that Foriner will be nominated this year, and they both believe they'll get in.

You have to be there.

I have to be there.

I got to go to Cleveland for that.

I'm happy to be there.

Yes.

You have to be there.

There's a whole week of shows

from the Radio Hall of Fame.

Yeah.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Can you believe that

the Doobie Brothers are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

This is the Doobie Brothers.

You're the only person I know who's fascinated by this.

It's incredible.

I've never heard anyone care about who's in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, including most of the artists when they're inducted.

They don't seem that excited about it.

No,

they barely show up for it themselves.

Because it's in Cleveland.

No offense, Cleveland.

I love Cleveland.

I think it's a great town.

It is great to have.

But still, that doesn't mean that.

But it's also the home, I believe, of

the Bowling Hall of Fame.

Is it?

Yes, I think it is.

Look it up.

Look it up.

I think it is.

I am not aware of that.

Yeah.

But that's very prestigious if it is.

Thank God.

And the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I think, is beautiful.

It's great.

Yeah, you've seen it, right?

Yeah.

It's an impressive building.

It is.

They say that they don't, you know, they don't care.

I think they care.

Yeah, I think they try to downplay it.

Yeah.

I mean, you know, you care.

Like, Paul McCartney is in there three times.

And

when he heard that Ringo was not in there, he called Ringo and he said, can you believe you're not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist?

And Ringo's like, no, I didn't know that.

And so he's like, do you want to sound like Al Gore?

I don't know.

That was weird.

He was just having an off-down.

Al Gore, did you know you weren't in the rock and roll hallway?

He had just seen an inconvenient truth.

Well, we'll have to do something about that, Paul.

Guys, I got some really good news here.

I believe the Bowling Museum is in Arlington, Texas.

Shut up!

Right down the street.

No, wait, wait, wait, wait.

No, that's Bowling Museum.

I'm looking for the Bowling Hall of Fame.

The Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame.

Shut up.

I thought it was in Cleveland.

Wow.

So that is pretty impressive.

Wow.

Cleveland.

How did you lose that?

Got my afternoon planned.

I'll tell you that.

Are you going directly from here to there?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

In fact, I'd like to go right here.

Okay, so I went bowling with my family.

You know, my wife, she said, I don't want anything.

I don't want anything.

So I got her Cafe Rio, which, by the way,

was a home run, I just want to say.

The second thing is.

You know, that's from the same family, by the way.

I know.

Shut up.

I don't care.

I don't.

All right.

I'm not the fan of it.

She is.

She's like,

I'm telling you, they do something to women.

When they walk into a Cafe Rio, they put something in the salad dressing or they hypnotize them or something.

But women are crazy about Cafe Rio.

Have you had it?

Yeah.

Yeah, I think it's good.

It's good, but it doesn't change my life.

Right.

It doesn't.

Women are all, they go crazy.

They do crazy over it.

I don't know why, but, you know, whatever.

So

we went bowling because she's like, I don't want anything.

I said, Okay, what do you, what do you want?

I just want to spend time with the family.

You need to go bowling.

Okay, so we're going bowling.

So we went bowling.

There was, there was

me, Mary, Rafe, Cheyenne.

Now they're teenagers

and above.

There was Hannah, Tim, he's 30, me and Tanya, and then the two little ones.

My grandson, who is three, beat all of us.

Really?

Yeah, he had, this is really horrible.

He had the high score of 61.

Oh, my gosh.

Nobody, no one.

Nobody rolled higher than 61.

No one rolled higher than 61.

I wasn't, I wasn't called.

I was not called in.

I did not.

I'm proud to say I don't have a score.

It may have been lower than that, but I was the bench warmer.

This is embarrassing.

That's embarrassing.

Are you sure you didn't bowl and get

12?

No idea.

I didn't.

I got the only strike.

I bowled once for my son, and I got a strike.

But 61.

Did you have the bumper pads in the alleys?

No.

You know, you ready?

Some of them did.

Yeah.

Like Tanya's didn't, Rafes didn't.

But, you know, the teenagers, some of the teenagers, I think, I think my, I think Hannah even may have used bumpers.

And she couldn't beat 61.

You beat 61 with bumpers?

I don't even know.

I don't even know how it happened.

No, it's bad.

Your family's a mess.

Yeah.

Real family.

Your family's a mess.

You don't.

If things come down to a sporting event, if the world has ever decided on, oh, you know what?

We're going to go.

China's going to take over.

Yeah, well, it's going to be decided by a bowl off.

Make sure we're nowhere near.

Any kind of sporting event, not good.

That's unbelievable.

The bowling alleys now.

are no longer like they used to be.

Like, I went to one when I was a kid, and we would go and, you know, it's like they had the big plastic pitchers of beer.

Yeah, you can get a beer.

And it smelled like a bowling alley, right?

It smelled like beer.

Yeah, beer and peas.

And like, maybe you had an arcade room like that.

Maybe, maybe.

But those were sketchy.

Yeah, and they're very sketchy and very dirty.

Now there's like, you know, it's really good food.

They've got automatic bumpers that pop out, really different games.

Oh, you've not played in the new ball.

I haven't.

It's like, oh, they're amazing.

It's really

cool.

Yeah, I mean, I don't really know.

I don't really for the same reason.

Yeah, the back.

Yeah, you're just like, ah, ow.

Hospital.

Yeah.

I know.

It is amazing that you, every time I go, I would have hurting myself.

Yeah.

It's like I'm swinging my arm.

Bowling is swinging your arm.

It should not be

the type of.

What?

It's really not.

It's more than that.

It is more than that.

You know,

like curling is just sweeping the floor.

No, it's not.

You got to ice skate at the same time.

No, okay, so ice skating, you're sweeping the floor.

You could ice skate, but you can't bowl over a 61.

I would say I could ice skate, but you're not all ice skating.

One of them just has to kneel down and just be pushed by the other ones or just get a running fall.

So he's pushing with the rock, and then the other ones sweep.

And they're not actually ice skating, right?

They have shoes on.

Yeah, they don't

ice skate, but you're slipping on the ice.

Okay, so they sort of shuffle down the ice.

That's a stupid sport.

Oh, yeah.

I mean, that's obviously.

Canada should be embarrassed.

Yeah, that's like Canada.

That's just Canada.

Like, I don't know.

We give up.

What are we going to do?

I don't know.

Let's.

Push a stone down the ice, eh?

Let's go to the lake and hope we all don't fall in.

How many people died as they tried to invent curling?

I mean, you're putting

up on the ice?

Like, that's someone who wanted to kill the person who was playing.

And who came up with a broom?

You know what would make this better?

Is if we made it a little neater.

We just broom some of this stuff out of its way.

That'd be great.

Doesn't sound like a fun crowd.

No, no, no, it really doesn't.

No, no, no.

All right.

Pat,

any thoughts before you go into the weekend?

Well, I have purchased a record player so that I can catch up on my words.

Right.

Okay, that's really good.

I'm up to, I'm just 1,940,000 words short now of where I need to be.

Right.

I didn't even realize until last night I was short on words, but now I figured it out.

Short on words and some of the best words, and a record player is really going to be, what is it, one of those Disney books that's reading stories?

Bing!

And you turn the record over.

If any of those people win,

America, just on sheer stupidity for voting for them, is done.

Forget their policies.

How can you watch what we saw last night and then vote for one of those buffoons?

It is a bad group.

Oh, my gosh.

I mean, it is a bad group.

There is nobody you can look at and say, well, okay, if Trump loses, that wouldn't be so bad.

There's nobody like that.

I think, no, no, no, no, wait, wait, wait.

Take your mindset out of

policy.

You could look at Elizabeth Warren and go, she's competent.

She's not crazy.

If you didn't know any of her policies.

Or if you didn't have a problem with socialism.

Yes.

You know what I mean?

Yeah, but I think that's a good idea.

No, but you wouldn't say that.

Fair enough.

I hope.

Yeah.

I hope.

But Bernie Sanders is crazy.

I mean, he's crazy.

Yeah.

Yeah, he's crazy.

He's a miserable human being.

Really bad.

And then Joe Biden, there is something

physically wrong with him.

And I don't say that with great joy.

There is something wrong with him.

And you are a doctor.

I am a doctor.

I am a doctor.

So thank you for reminding me of that and the audience.

Kamala Harris, you could look at and go, well, she's kind of like me, you know.

If you didn't know, again, the policy, right?

Right, right.

So there are some.

I think if you're just looking at the person and who sounds the most sane, I'd have to go with Buddha Judge.

I'd go with Yang, I think.

Would you?

I think I would.

Yeah, Yang is, like, I think his policies are better than a lot of the other candidates.

You know, if you're going to go just, and again, his policies are terrible.

It's like an F or an F minus.

But I don't think

he comes off weird to me for some reason.

I've heard him in long-form interviews where he's very likable.

But on this, he's doing all these sticky.

I'm going to give $10,000

to 10 families every month.

He's treating it in a, in a, like, it's like a, he's literally launching a contest in the middle of a debate.

It's just weird.

And he can't.

He's kind of smart, though, when you're trying to qualify for the next debate.

He's just looking for donors.

Yeah, well, he's already in for the next debate, though.

Oh, is he now?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, look, you know, we, everyone like dismisses Yang.

He's in, I believe, sixth place when it comes to the polling.

Sixth.

He's ahead of Bob Frank O'Rourke at this point.

He's ahead of Gabbard.

He's ahead of Steyer.

He's ahead of Castro.

He's ahead of Klobuchar.

I think he's sixth.

I think he's ahead of Booker, too,

which gives you only Buddhajedge, Harris, Warren, Sanders, and Biden who are.

I think Buddha Judge and Yang,

I think

those two have in common the one thing of,

you know, we're not totally crazy.

I'm taking policies away.

Yeah.

We're not totally crazy.

We're kind of like you.

And I think they sense the rest of the field is totally nuts.

They know that.

that they start raving nuts.

I think you're willing to

go with grandpa who we can't let drive in Biden.

Don't give him, he will drive that car right through the front,

the front wall of the living room.

So

they're willing to go with that because we've all dealt with a crazy grandpa and he'll just maybe he'll be kind of quiet and, you know, he'll be one of those popes that didn't really do anything.

It's better than a really crazy pope.

One of the dark popes.

One of the dark popes.

One of the dark popes.

I'm kind of racist.

I'm amazed at Budajej's ability to just disappear, though.

Like, this is a guy.

He'd be the first gay president, right?

He is a mayor.

He's 37 or 8 years old.

Maybe he's 12 years old.

He's something.

He's very young.

He has kind of an amazing story.

He seems, as you point out, Pat, to have, I mean, he seems to be maybe the smartest of the candidates and also

served the country, maybe, maybe.

And he just, he gets in these debates and he's just a giant zero.

He doesn't hurt himself.

I never, I know, I mean, sometimes with the religion stuff, he's so bad on that.

I will say that's incredibly offensive to anyone who actually cares about their faith.

But other than that.

Good thing none of us do, right?

Exactly.

Nobody believes in stuff.

Ask that make that point in that room, and you probably

that's exactly what they would say.

But I mean, like, this is a guy who should have a dynamic story and he just disappears he doesn't get helped or hurt he just hurts around the same spot you heard what came out of the blaze with um um

oh what's her name the crazy woman uh

marianne williamson did you hear what what eric bowling got off mic yeah i saw that let me play that for you let me take a break and i'll come back and play this it's pretty incredible and i think that explains the buddha judge uh kind of phenomenon that you feel right now.

All right.

Our sponsor, this half hour, I don't happen to have it in front of me.

Who is it?

Who's our sponsor, guys?

Who is it?

So we were talking about Buddha Judge and how he just can't get his, you know, just can't get his story out, et cetera, et cetera.

And I think that's just because the media plays favorites and the media chooses, you know.

And

you see this a little bit.

Eric Bowling had, what's her name again, Marianne Williamson on

his show for Sinclair broadcasting.

And after the interview, Sinclair just kept running the microphones and the cameras.

And she made quite an amazing statement as she just kind of leaned over and was just kind of sitting there at the counter.

Here's what she said.

What does it say that Fox News is nicer to me than the lefties are?

I'm sorry.

What does it say that the conservatives are nicer to me?

It's a bizarre world, man.

It's such a bizarre world.

You know, I'm such a lefty.

I mean, I'm a serious lefty, but there's so, I understand why people on the right call them godless.

I mean, it's like, I didn't think the left was as mean as the right.

They are.

I'm just right.

So, Mary Ann,

so bizarre, bizarre.

And yet, that I think we're finding out on all sides.

I think that there are these PACs that play for keeps, that are,

that look at themselves as the gatekeepers, where I don't think that the average person, now this is not the extremes.

I'm not talking about the left.

I'm talking about the Democrats.

Democrats are not like that in their own hometown, and neither are Republicans in their own hometown, but the system just destroys you, especially the left.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.
