Best of the Program | 3/15/19

Hey, it's Pat Gray and Jeff Fisher for Glenn today.

Coming up on the podcast, we discussed, of course, the shooting in New Zealand, the horrific

killing of 49 Muslims in two different mosques.

And just the psychosis of the person involved here is unbelievable.

Absolutely amazing and so tragic.

We also talked about, we've got an update for you on Aunt Becky.

She's out, she's free, she's walking the streets.

Be careful, please.

Please, Aunt Becky made bail

in the Varsity Blues scandal, and she's out there somewhere.

So I just thought I want you to have to run into her and her crime spree.

She could be here or British Columbia.

Fortunately, though, she's been fired from the Hallmark job.

We'll get into that.

Is it fortunate?

Fortunately, yeah, because you don't want to have to look at her anymore.

Another fortunate thing is we talked a little bit about the exciting, exciting presidential run that Beto Aurora is bringing to the table.

Can't wait.

Man, he's so fantastic.

Also, speaking of Betto and his climate change stuff, kids agree with him that climate change is catastrophic.

And so they're walking out of school today.

A big strike from the children of America.

And a big mob boss was just recently killed in New York City.

And Jeffy has the details on that.

All coming up today in the podcast

you're listening to the best of the blend back program

I love Patriot mobile here's the thing sell service almost all of it is exactly the same because everybody's using the same cell towers okay and what these companies do is they get their own customers and they charge all kinds of really high prices then they sell time on that tower to other companies and they charge really, really the low basic rate.

Now,

you're denying those companies that own those cell towers the money, all that big fat profit to be able to go and donate to things like Planned Parenthood.

So if you switch to another one that has the same coverage, but is not giving that big fat profit, you hurt that

big company.

You also help the little company and you help your own causes because that little company is not giving all the money to Planned Parenthood.

That's Patriot Mobile.

They share your values.

They know what you are,

what you, what your hard-earned money is worth, and they'll give you the exact same coverage.

It's patriotmobile.com slash Blaze.

PatriotMobile.com slash Blaze.

Go sign up now.

They make the transition really, really simple.

simple switch to patriot mobile now with pat gray of pat gray unleashed which immediately precedes this show also here this morning uh jeffy from chewing the fat that podcast which is available wherever podcasts are sold for free as is mine

correct yes uh and again now chewing the fat does that have anything to do with physique of the host or

yeah you're chewing the fat it's like a conversation

let's just go somewhere and chew the fat Right.

Yeah, yeah.

All right.

I just wanted to clear that up.

Never mind that the logo has my face on a side of beef.

Again, that's just coincidence, right?

There was nowhere else to put your logo, and they just had a side of beef handy.

So they superimposed it there, which is interesting.

All right.

Triple eight seven two seven.

B-E-C-K.

Glenn is, I think he's like he's having a weekend with Tony Robbins or something.

This is not going to end well.

I wouldn't think so.

This is not going to end well.

Last week I spent the weekend with Stephen Covey.

He visited me from beyond the grave.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah, we spent the weekend together.

So it's interesting now that Glenn's doing the same thing with Tony Robbins.

Huh.

Fascinating.

A really horrific shooting in New Zealand.

At least 49 people were killed in mass shootings at two mosques full of worshipers attending Friday prayers on what the prime minister called one of New Zealand's darkest days.

One man was arrested and charged with murder in what appeared to be a carefully planned racist attack.

He

apparently freely and openly admits he's a racist and hates immigrants.

And he said

this was revenge

for their invasion.

888 727BECK, the phone number to call, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern

said the events in Christchurch, New Zealand represented an extraordinary and unprecedented act of violence.

And many of the victims apparently

might be migrants or refugees.

She said it's clear that this can now only be described as a terrorist attack.

In addition to those who died, health officials said 48 people were being treated for gunshot wounds.

So 48 injured.

Last I heard, it was 20.

Injuries ranged from minor to critical.

The guy talked about doing this.

He bragged that he was going to do it.

And then he live streamed it.

Apparently, he rigged up a

camera

on a helmet and filmed the whole thing.

It's really, really horrific.

And don't forget about his great 87-page manifesto.

Was it 87 pages?

He's just nuts.

Yeah, he's just crazy.

CNN is hard at work, even as we speak, trying to blame Donald Trump for the shooting.

In a place where this doesn't happen, right?

America is the only place we're told by the left all the time.

This is the only place this ever happens.

And then when it doesn't happen here, it's still the fault of the president.

because they can't blame the gun, not in New Zealand, where guns are virtually banned, not in Australia.

He's from Australia, this murderer,

where guns were banned and confiscated.

So you can't blame the gun because they've already done everything they could possibly do to rid their society of guns.

So

they've taken to blaming the president because everything's his fault.

No matter what.

Right.

No matter where it happens and no matter what it is that happens.

Read between the lines.

It's a dog whistle.

It's all his fault.

And by the way, again,

dog whistles are whistles that only dogs can hear.

That's why they call them dog whistles because they're at a frequency so high humans can't hear it.

If you're using dog whistles, no human is hearing you.

If it's a dog whistle code, that's fine because nobody heard it.

It's kind of what we want.

Except dogs, and they're not going to do anything about it.

You hope.

We hope.

Yeah.

I feel pretty confident that the dogs aren't going to do anything about it.

So when the dogs hear the dog whistle racism, so what?

If your dog is racist, oh well,

what are you going to do about it?

Keep him on a leash is what you got to do.

Right.

That's right.

So it's just a crazy world.

And it's amazing how every single time it's Donald Trump, every single time it's white people.

I mean, it's so bad with that right now.

We were actually blamed for

white air pollution this week.

Whites are polluting, I guess, minority neighborhoods and then sneaking back really carefully to their beautiful suburban life where it's clean, fresh air, that country air that you breathe.

And so you're not breathing the stuff you went and polluted in another neighborhood where the minorities live.

I mean, I don't even know how that works.

How does that work?

I'm not quite sure I understand it myself.

It's it's always white's fault, you know, the white privilege thing.

So, if you've accomplished something, so what?

Uh, you had white privilege and you were

given all that stuff, no matter whether you worked for it or not, it was given to you.

Uh, and there's white income inequality, and there's white pollution, and white people are just bad.

So deal with that.

Okay.

Deal with it.

It's just a crazy, crazy, crazy time.

Deadliest attack occurred at the Al-Nur

Mosque in Central Christchurch at 1.45 in the afternoon.

1.45.

So in broad daylight, this guy went out and conducted this killing spree.

So 41 people were apparently killed there.

And then he drove across town and killed people

at another mosque.

And he was taken into custody.

So the guy is still alive.

Unlike most of these psychos, he didn't kill himself at the end.

And police didn't kill him either.

So he's in custody now.

No doubt we're going to have to hear a bunch of his rantings and ravings.

I hope not.

And his lunacy.

I mean, I'm sure you're right, right, but I sure hope.

He also

went after

they're trying to present this as, okay, this guy is a right-wing guy,

but he attacked conservatives in his manifesto.

Said,

your time is gone, conservatism is dead.

So he's got no love for conservatives.

And he also said he considers himself an environmentalist, eco-fascist.

Huh.

Fascist?

Yeah.

And fascist, by the way, fascism is not a product of the right either.

Fascism is on the left.

Fascism comes from big government, which people on the right don't want.

So if he's a fascist and an environmentalist, that's not a product of the right either.

But that's how it will be spun.

is that this guy is right-wing.

He got all of his ideas from Donald Trump, and then he went and killed people in New Zealand.

Christchurch is the largest city on New Zealand's South Island.

And the city's been rebuilding since an earthquake in 2011 killed 185 people and destroyed many downtown buildings.

So they've had their share of problems in New Zealand over this time period, too.

Really sad.

And our thoughts and prayers go out to the people of New Zealand, which will be mocked, of course, by the left because thoughts and prayers do nothing.

And apparently neither do gun bans.

Right?

We've said it all along.

You know,

when you have the gun bans,

it's the law-abiding citizens who are without the guns.

Yeah, exactly.

And see, the criminals and the psychos always find a way, don't they?

They always find a way.

In fact, in Great Britain, where they also banned guns and confiscated guns, and that happened in 96 or 97.

And in the immediate aftermath of that, the gun violence actually went up 300%.

300% up.

And then it leveled off for a while.

Then it went back up.

Then it went down.

Then it went back up.

And right now, in the last couple of years, it's been about the same as it was before the gun ban.

So it did nothing.

It didn't help the situation.

In fact, what it did was encourage people to get knives and stab other people.

So the bad people are still finding a way to do bad things in Great Britain.

And it's gotten so bad with the knife attacks that one of the MPs in England, one of the members of parliament, is now proposing that they put GPS trackers into knife handles.

Genius.

It's brilliant, right?

Genius.

First of all, there should also be a three-day waiting period if you want to buy silverware at a store.

Yeah, I'd like a butter knife.

Okay, just sign here and we'll do the background check.

You come back in three days.

We'll see if you can get that butter knife.

We'll send it to the back for you.

It'll be waiting for you.

I mean, look,

if you are just using knives to butter your bread or your baked potato, you got nothing to worry about.

You got nothing to worry about.

You're fine.

Right.

So if the tracker's in the handle of the butter knife, so what?

You're not doing anything wrong.

You're not doing anything wrong.

I wish, you know, I told the story before when my daughter, my youngest daughter, she's 18 now, but when she was three,

she actually took a butter knife and buttered our dog.

Was she planning on baking it?

I'm not sure.

We fortunately got to the dog and the butter before that happened.

And it could have been sooner, though.

It could have been sooner if we had a tracking device and the butter knife.

Right.

It could have prevented a lot of hassle and

a really nasty dog bath.

And then when we took the butter away from her, she found another way

to cause trouble by yogurting the dog in a full,

she had an entire container of yogurt that she dumped on the dog.

And then she didn't use a knife on that, though.

No, she used her hands that

smart.

See, that's what's going to happen.

You put a tracking device in her hands, and then maybe.

People are going to realize they can't use a knife.

They're going to have to use something else.

It's crazy.

I mean, the whole thing is just, it's nuts.

There's no way to prevent every bad thing from happening in life.

You just can't do it.

We can't safety proof the entire planet.

It's not possible.

We could do our best.

We're trying.

Yeah, you do what you can, and then, you know,

things are just going to happen.

The best of the Glen Beck program.

Hey, it's Glenn, and you're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

If you like what you're hearing on this show, make sure you check out Pat Gray Unleashed.

It's available wherever you download your favorite podcasts.

All right, let's talk to John in Utah.

John, you're on the Glenn Beck program.

Hi.

Hey, Pat.

Hey,

how are we going?

Good.

Doing well.

You really concerned, or are you just making small talk?

Absolutely not.

I couldn't get it.

Not could you?

Okay, that's what I was feeling some of that.

Yeah.

All right, go ahead.

So, the 2019 legislative session session just wrapped up here in Utah.

And

apparently in the budget, they set aside $1.5 million

for a shrine for Oren Hatch.

What?

Nice.

What?

Yes.

Shrine to Oren Hatch

$1.5 million.

Yeah, and

the thing is, is that

Oren

lobbied for this.

He wanted $2 million for it.

Seriously?

That's embarrassing.

He should be ashamed of himself.

Oren Hatch lobbied the Utah legislature

to provide $2 million for a statue or a shrine to him.

Well, yeah, well, part of it is that they're going to do a replica of his office in the Senate.

That is crazy.

Good.

And it's only, look, it's $1.5 million.

$1.5.

Right.

Out of the whole budget of Utah, I'm sure that's just a drop in the bucket.

So

go ahead and do it.

Is anybody but you hacked off about this in Utah, John?

So

I'm hearing a lot of people that are annoyed.

Especially

hacked off.

That is crazy.

I know.

Annoyed isn't hacked off, though, because people get annoyed, and then up goes the shrine.

You're right.

They get annoyed, and then they just provide a million and a half dollars for a short time.

If you're hacked off, maybe it doesn't go up.

Thanks, John.

I mean, do people not remember who Orrin Hatch is?

What he did while he was in office?

He was a year senator is what

he is, okay, my friend.

And a good one, too.

Okay.

That sided with Ted Kennedy on every issue.

I remember

a while ago, this is maybe last year

when Ted Kennedy's son.

was talking about Kennedy and Hatch's relationship.

Because you're working with them.

Because that's how he did it.

He forged these personal bonds.

Him and Orrin Hatch.

You know, Orin Hatch, I think, got elected, probably bashing your dad.

He says it.

He came to Washington to counteract my dad's vote.

Orin Hatch did.

Right.

And then what happened?

Cutting every deal in the world because he knew it was going to pass.

If Ted Kennedy signed off and he was sponsor of it, then boom.

Everyone else would say, oh, well, geez, if Oren and Ted are for it, then bang.

Right.

What an evolutionary concept.

Hello, Utah.

Did you maybe not hear that little?

Did you maybe not follow his exploits during those 40 years in office?

Orin Hatch was terrible.

He was a terrible senator.

I wouldn't give one penny to a shrine to Orrin Hatch.

Now, this article from

Salt Lake Tribune said we could spend the money in more responsible ways.

Oh, you think?

What?

You think?

What?

Is this some sort of quack writing this article?

Look at the byline.

Who's responsible for that?

For that article.

That is just unconscionable.

Oh, this is Michelle Quista.

She believes the hat shrine is one more sign of Utah's GOP's bro club.

Yes, it is.

You're 100% correct, Michelle.

You're exactly right.

Yeah, no kidding.

I don't agree with the Salt Lake Tribune on much, but

we're together on that.

Yeah, no kidding.

That's despicable.

Mike in Florida, you're on the Glenn Peck program.

Patting Jeffy.

Hi.

Hey, Pat, how are you doing today?

Doing good.

Just wanted to talk about why people get pushed into doing some of these things with the varsity blues.

For instance, my child was a valedictorian 5.0, had over

150, 200 community service hours, but couldn't get into a Florida school because we had Florida prepaid, and our tuition is like

10% of what the out-of-state people pay.

So here we're stuck having to send our child somewhere else because of money issues with the school.

And I don't think that's fair.

And I think that's part of the thing that pushes these people.

Wow.

So, with a 5.0,

which out of a 4.0

possibility.

They have the thing now.

Yeah, I know.

I know, and that's amazing.

Did you say she

wow?

How much you pay for that?

That's what I'm wondering.

I mean, that's the kids are

taking in that clear bit, and it's all because of money.

I'm not aware of the issue with the schools, though, on that, because I had Florida Florida prepaid, too,

at one time.

And,

you know, it was,

I don't know that there was ever a problem with that.

I mean, my son ended up going to a school outside of Florida, so it never mattered.

It's the tuition.

They get four times the tuition.

Out of state people pay $25,000 where we only pay $3,000 a semester.

Right.

So they try to get more people from out-of-state at the Florida schools?

Is that what you're saying?

So they get higher tuition?

Exactly.

And it's not only in Florida schools.

It's in other states, too.

It's in Illinois.

It's in New York.

And it's all about money-driven.

But now they can sit there on their high horse, and somebody tried to help get their child.

And you know, they're the ones who should be a little bit investigated, too.

And I don't mean to sound like a no, I understand that.

You gotta do, I'm gonna be people pay money, yeah.

That's what I know that they want the best for your kids.

I understand that, and that's why I was it's so strange that they're you know, taking such a hard line with them, but you know, I got it, it's a crime, and nobody wants to look at it this way, though.

Uh, Mike, at least you're not building a shrine to Oren Hatch.

I didn't have 1.5 sitting around in the backyard

anyway, because he's such a great, great guy.

Oh, he's fantastic.

Thank you, guys.

Yeah, he's a legend.

All right, thank you.

Appreciate it.

Triple eight, 727BECK.

Orin gave

years.

Years of service.

To the state of Utah and to the country of Utah.

Yes, he did.

He sure did.

And dedicated service to all kinds of

not-so-conservative causes.

And in some cases, very liberal causes.

But when he went into office.

Yeah,

he went into office campaigning virtually

as the opposite of Ted Kennedy.

And then he got to office with Ted Kennedy, and they became the best of friends and then agreed on everything.

That's great.

I know we've kind of chatted about this before, but how many times has that happened the other way?

How many times does that happen?

How many counted the other way?

Let's see.

Orin Hatch would get voted in, and he would go into Washington and meet Ted Kennedy, and Ted would go, you know what?

You know what?

I'm going to vote with Oren.

Orin and I are together on this.

Let me see.

Carry the one.

Zero.

It happened no time.

Isn't that fascinating?

Yeah, it is.

Yeah, it never happens.

I don't know.

For some reason, it's always the conservatives who go the other way.

Because we're changing the state.

In the Supreme Court, in the Senate, everywhere.

I just wanted to try to get along.

Yeah.

Everybody to get along.

Well, the hip kids, I guess, are on the left for some reason.

And so you want to be one of the hip kids.

And so you go along with their agenda.

And Hatch did it from just about the time he got into office all the way through.

And now you're going to build a shrine to the guy in Utah?

Ridiculous.

Wow.

But only a million dollars.

Only a

half million.

If the Hatch family wants a shrine.

You can get a trailer and get a trailer for $1.5, don't you?

Yes.

But, you know, if the Hatch Foundation wants a shrine,

build it yourself.

Let the foundation build it.

Yeah, let the foundation pay for the whole thing.

The people of Utah don't have to build that.

They don't have to pay for it.

That's unbelievable.

Don't get me started.

It's too late.

I guess you already did get me started.

It's just madness, though.

Look, that's just greedy.

It's just greedy.

It's just, look, we've got the money, or we could raise the money through our foundation, but why?

But we don't want to get to the taxpayers.

Exactly.

And what do the taxpayers get out of that?

They get to go and pay to go see it.

Yeah, right.

Oh, look, there's some papers he signed with Ted Kennedy.

At least when,

you know, owners of sports teams convince a city or a state to chip in funds to build their stadiums for them, for these billionaires,

the taxpayers to build their stadium, at least you get to go to the stadium and enjoy the team that, you know, you love.

You still have to pay for that, too, though.

Yeah, you do.

You do have to pay to get into the stadium.

I was always for that, but I'm kind of against it.

Me too.

While I want new stadiums.

I know, me too.

They shouldn't be built built by tax dollars.

I know, agreed, agreed.

They should not.

I mean, how many poor people own

a sports franchise?

It's a team.

Yeah, no.

It's your team.

No.

And by the way, if we don't have the stadium built, we're going to take it somewhere else.

Go ahead.

All right.

Let's go to Mike in New Hampshire.

Hey, Mike.

You're on the going back over.

Yeah.

Well, thank you very much, gentlemen.

Forgive me at the outset because I'm a man recounting two women's stories.

Oh, no.

So,

yeah,

I encountered two women in my life,

both loved them dearly.

And at one point in time,

in a confidence,

they told me that they had had abortions.

One had an abortion because

it was a burden upon the family, family going through trouble, marital relationships.

Did they struggle with it?

Yeah, well, that's what I'm going to say.

And the other was a date rape in college.

The first one

was nine years after her abortion and every year she remembers the day and I held her as she cried all night long

wondering what her son would have been and what his date, what she would have had.

She has nightmares.

I wonder why she'd she'd stay away from me on one particular day and one day

She didn't and this is what happened.

She cried all night long in my arms about the son's face you'll never see.

The second woman who had a date rape

was the very same thing.

And you would think that, you know, they bring up this thing of rape and incest and all, whatever this case may be.

This one particular woman, a good woman,

was date raped in college, and she feels such shame that even though societal pressures and they can't walk around not married and pregnant and

all that other pressure, she still regrets not standing up for her child.

So both of these stories are the only two encounters I've had,

but they always talk about this at the moment, and I know human beings can wash stuff away, but when death occurs, it's the only thing you can't fix as humans.

And I would just say

I'm on the edge of the death penalty.

I understand that.

You know,

as a Christian, a wasted life is a wasted life.

I know I won't get into the deterrent factor or whatever, how many innocent people have been executed.

But what I know is

there's only one thing we can't solve as human beings, and that's mortality.

So

I have relatives that have adopted children when they couldn't have their own.

They kept the mother, the birth mother, involved.

Both children know they got two mommies.

And this is the mommy I live with, and this is the mommy, and she was a professional who couldn't have the children.

But

you can work it out.

I don't understand

with our ability to know ultrasound, our ability to, we're doing vitro surgeries now to save children.

There's really the excuse of back alley abortions doesn't hold anymore.

We know

exactly what's going on.

It's so disingenuous.

Third month,

they're doing ultrasounds.

They can probably tell you what color the kids' eyes are.

And it's a common theme between

a number of stories that we've heard: is that

struggling after the abortion?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Realize, you know, trying to live with yourself and live with what happened after that.

Yeah.

It's a struggle all around.

And I'm torn between the rape as well.

It's a hard one.

It is a really hard one.

The rape is really hard

because, you know,

her choice was taken away in the beginning then.

It's a big day today for the kids all over America walking out of class.

Yay!

In protest to climate change.

Inspired by Greta Thunberg, the 16-year-old Swedish climate activist.

Oh, that's wonderful.

Who was just nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize?

Oh, she deserves it.

She deserves it.

Now, more than 100 countries, more than 100 countries are participating in this.

Good.

Amazing.

Good.

Amazing.

The kids are going to

affect change here.

Right?

They're the ones to do it because they're inheriting this problem, Jeffy.

They're the ones who are going to be punished and pay for this.

It's fascinating.

Hundreds of thousands of children are expected to walk out of their classrooms today for a global climate strike.

Amid growing anger.

Amid growing anger at the failure of politicians to tackle the escalating ecological crisis.

Oh, no.

If these kids don't go to school, what will we do?

Or if they walk out and stand outside their school for a while, what will we do?

What do you think that's going to do to us?

I don't know.

You're going on strike.

You're going to walk out of your class on a Friday.

So?

Well,

look,

it's going to bring light to the climate emergency facing the planet.

Okay.

And again, what is the emergency we face?

What's going on?

Because of government inaction.

What's happening?

Because of the government inaction.

Because there's a climate crisis, is what's happening.

I don't know what your deal is.

I don't know why you're in the case.

Exactly.

What part of the climate is in crisis right now?

Government leadership on climate change is the crisis.

Yeah.

Okay, but I'm just trying to get to the heart of the problem.

What exactly is happening in this crisis that makes it a crisis?

Those in power are betraying us, taking away our future.

In what way have they taken away your future?

They're responsible for the climate crisis that's unfolding in horrendous ways around the world.

Those ways are what?

What are the horrendous ways?

That's what I'm looking to get.

No, I'm just trying to find out what the horrendous ways are.

Every country is going to be part of this, except Antarctica.

No children are walking out of school in Antarctica.

Yeah, because no children live there.

So I'm just saying, they're not part of it.

And what you want to do with that?

Little brats in Antarctica.

What are you too good?

Right?

Thank you.

Thank you.

So

it's the duty of these children to act.

To act, yeah.

Because

for our futures.

Because the temperature's gone up 0.9 degrees.

That's what climate just isn't going to be a good thing.

More food is growing.

Climate's justice means this.

More food is growing as a result of the warmer climate.

So

why is that bad?

Okay, so there isn't a problem, is what you're saying.

Right, that's what I'm saying.

Oh, whatever.

No problem.

Whatever.

I'm okay with it so far.

What's happened?

I mean, other than what's always happened, you know, so

sometimes it's warmer, sometimes it's colder.

And by the way, each of those extremes mean the same thing.

Global warming.

Oh, yes.

Yeah.

So if it's hotter than normal, why that, of course, is global warming.

If it's colder than normal, that also is global warming.

And if it's about the same as ever, it's global warming.

Well, I mean, look, it's all escalating ecological crisis.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

So let's walk out of school today.

And

take a stand.

And by the way, you know, none of these kids are just looking for a day out at school.

Well, Greta isn't.

No.

Greta's not.

No.

Greta's getting a Nobel Prize, or at least she's been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize.

So good for her.

Yeah, that's great.

I hope she wins it because what a great cause getting kids to walk out of class every Friday.

And I guess it is every Friday.

Yes, well, in Sweden,

it's starting to be every Friday around the world until somebody recognizes the crisis at hand.

There you go.

If somebody doesn't get hysterical over the fact that it's 0.9 degrees warmer in the last 100 years,

then

they haven't done their job.

You can make fun of this crisis all you want.

No,

I'm scared of it.

I'm really frightened over it.

I'm tired of everyone just poo-pooing this because the earth is in an ecological crisis.

No, you keep saying that.

I'm just not getting the specifics on it.

That's all.

I'm just looking for the specifics.

It's funny that they don't have specifics.

No, none.

It's weird.

Never do.

They never do.

Al Gore is.

Well, look at the drought and the fires

and

the

flooding where you see fish

swimming down the strait on a sunny day

I love that one

that's my favorite one the swimming fish swimming down the street on a sunny day

that's the type of ecological crisis we're in right now okay it is don't you mock that because that's scary uh have you ever seen a fish swim down the street on a sunny day?

Actually, I have.

Have you really?

I have.

Huh?

Yeah.

Okay.

Actually, I have.

I lived in Florida where the ecological crisis is worse than ever.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And nobody's doing anything about it, Pat.

Right.

Even though Al warned us about it.

Hey, I went down to Miami and saw fish from the ocean swimming in the streets on a sunny day.

The same thing was true in Honolulu just two days ago, just from high tides because of the sea level rise now.

We are at the high tides suffering from some of these consequences, but we can limit and avoid the the most catastrophic consequences if we accelerate the pace of change that's now beginning.

There you go.

What's good is there was never any high tide before.

No.

Before the oceans rose up even more than they already are.

Right.

I mean, it wasn't low tide and high tide and any of that.

No, there was none of that.

It's because of our athletic

that this has happened.

And so

otherwise, you wouldn't be seeing fish.

I'm surprised they're winning everything.

We haven't seen AOC and Al together, have we?

With this new Green Deal and Al.

No, you would think they'd be a.

Yeah, you would.

I'm a little

natural.

Yeah.

I'm surprised Al hasn't backed her up.

I don't know what the deal is.

I haven't even heard him mention the Green New Deal.

Yeah, that's fascinating.

Why?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Maybe she's trying to horn in on his money.

Is he jealous of because he didn't propose something that bold?

Very possible.

I wonder.

I wonder if this little upstart isn't stealing his thunder.

She is.

Yeah.

Right?

That is possible.

Oh, yeah.

It's likely, is what it is.

It's likely.

You know, same with Nancy Pelosi.

She doesn't like her either because she's stealing her thunder as well.

Big time.

Oh, big time.

And she's causing problems for her.

And so

they don't like it.

I mean, the headline, you know, who's in charge?

And is Nancy who's the boss?

All that kind of thing.

That could not sit well.

AOC's the boss.

Yeah.

She said so.

The young upstarts are.

That's for sure.

Right.

Triple 8, 727, BECK.

Also, did we discover what really happened at Stonehenge?

Did we finally figure out that the aliens came down and arranged these gigantic rocks in this particular way?

Because, what, it was a landing site?

Or what is the deal on Stonehenge?

I think we've finally gotten the answer.

Well, look, you're right.

I mean, there used to be, you know, it was a place for,

we thought it was a place for burial.

We thought it was a place for healing.

We thought it was, you know, the observatory.

We thought aliens were landing.

Right.

We thought it was a landing thing.

But now they've discovered

about 8,500 bones.

And those bones were mostly pigs and cow bones.

So they think it was just a barbecue pit.

They just have big barbecue pits.

They used to have just big barbecue parties at Stonehenge.

They would barbecue pigs and cows, and all the cities and towns and peoples would all meet there, and that's where they had their big barbecue party.

And how did they arrange the gigantic stones like this?

We still do.

Yeah, just for the party.

Just for the party.

Absolutely amazing.

Just amazing.

How many things

crazy things for facts, but they're not facts.

You know, we know those aliens built that.

Yes.

Stonehenge is a barbecue pit?

Is that a place for barbecue?

It was just pig roast going on.

That's fantastic.

I mean, come on.

That's fantastic.

They found mostly pig bones, so it was mostly pork, but there were some few cows there.

They did roast a few cows.

So, you know, it wasn't Texans because we don't know.

We're not doing pork.

We're not barbecue pork.

We did a bit.

We did barbecue beef.

There might have been a pig, maybe one or two pigs thrown in there, but it would have been mostly cows.

So clearly, you know, Stonehenge didn't happen in Texas.

No, it did not.

But it's just the community barbecue now.

God.

That is fantastic.

So it was just a place for, you know, the convergence of, you know, all the municipalities to get together and forge alliances between all the neighboring groups and just have fun.

So it's a neighborhood barbecue now.

It's just a neighborhood barbecue.

This

is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

We were talking about some of the alternatives to

these Hollywood stars that they could have gotten their kids into

a lot of different schools that are still pretty good schools, and maybe you wouldn't have had to pay $500,000

for entry.

It does seem a little steep.

It seems a tad, yeah, a tad steep.

And is it worth it?

I mean,

her daughter, in the case of Lori Laughlin, her daughter didn't even apparently appreciate it because she said she didn't care about school.

And maybe she's just saying that for, you know,

her podcast or her beauty blog or whatever she does.

Her Instagram posts.

Yeah.

Where she apparently makes 30 to 50,000 per post.

That's pretty good.

Yeah, that's not bad.

But

some of these schools,

you know, like, for instance,

University of Michigan, pretty good school.

Yeah.

27% acceptance rate.

Wow.

So maybe you could get in there.

Maybe.

Or maybe not, because 27%.

That did not sound that good.

I thought it was going to be higher than that.

Yeah.

Bellehaven University in Mississippi is the hardest school in Mississippi to get into.

Oh, I mean Bellhaven.

59%.

Bellehaven.

That's like the Ivy League of Mississippi.

Yes, it apparently is.

Let's see if you could go up to Montana and get into Rocky Mountain College.

64% of students are in mid-College.

64%.

That's a lie.

It's like 80.

80 or 90.

But anyway, you go to Montana, they're like the end.

Yes.

Okay, University of Nevada at Reno.

88% of kids get into Canada.

That campus is actually beautiful.

It's a nice campus.

Yeah, it is.

You could go up to Laramie, Wyoming.

And who doesn't want to go to Laramie, Wyoming?

And go to the fine University of Wyoming.

Yeah, the Cowboys.

Who don't want to be the Cowboys anymore because 97%

acceptance rate.

In fact,

so

you know, the 3% they didn't accept are the ones that said, you know what, we're not coming there.

I mean, that's about it.

So they've checked off saying, well, they just were not taking them.

But I'm looking at the Ivy League school acceptance rates.

Columbia, 7%.

Wow.

That's pretty stiff.

Princeton, 6%.

Harvard, 5%.

So, yeah, you know,

okay, you are bribing officials to get your kid in there.

They don't have a 4.0 plus.

Or plus.

Or it might not even be good enough.

You know, 1520 on your ACT or SAT or whatever that is.

I guess it'd be SAT.

And hours donated to help the poor and everything else, man.

I mean,

you're going to be working hard to get that.

Yeah.

That's hard work.

So it's not just the grades.

It's not just your test scores.

You've got to have some other incentives to get you in there, too.

You've got to be kind of, you know, you do some special things.

And good.

And that's what it's supposed to be.

It should be.

Yeah.

That's what it's supposed to be.

Yeah.

Otherwise, you know, just bribe one of the coaches for $500,000.

Why not?

Why not?

Why not?

That's what they thought.

Why not?

Well, I don't know.

Jail?

That might be one good reason not to do it.

Maybe.

Jail for wanting the best for your kids.

It'd be interesting to see what happens to it if they do wind up in jail for right it will be it'll be interesting i mean really what do you think uh maybe probation yeah that's what i think i mean probation they pay a fine maybe pay a fine probation

community service say you're sorry something like that right say you're sorry she's already been fired from her job right which is pretty you know that's serious when you haven't even even been convicted of anything right so uh yeah i would guess no jail time

same with jesse smollett by the way jesse smollett or however he pronounced his name.

I don't think he's going to do jail time.

Don't you?

I don't think he'll do jail time.

How about that one?

You think he will?

I think he has to.

You think Jesse Smollett will do jail time?

I mean,

how long?

That long.

Because he faces, what, 40

years or something?

Well, that's going to be silly, of course.

But, you know, he goes in for at least a year, right?

Got to.

Got to do a year.

I don't think so.

I don't think he will.

We'll see.

Maybe.

But, I mean, he maintains his innocence.

And maybe that will hack him off to the point where they will insist on jail time.

I don't know.

We'll see.

I mean, we'll have, you know, look, right.

As of now, he's innocent, right?

We're just going by what we know.

We haven't seen anything in court.

There's nothing, you know, the trial's happening next month.

And in the case of Empire, they've done the right thing.

They're waiting until this is adjudicated.

They're waiting to see if the guy is convicted of anything.

Unlike the goody two-shoes over there at Hallmark,

pulling the plug on.

Already pulled the plug on poor Lori Laughlin.

Triple eight, 727, BECK.

Also, we've got this leftist protester that

went into a college Republicans event at Portland State University.

Campus police were there at the meeting.

And it's fascinating because this guy comes in and disrupts the meeting for over an hour.

This story and clip is just so frustrating.

This makes me angry.

It's so frustrating.

Watch this guy do his thing at a college Republicans event.

For those who are listening on radio, he's just sitting there now.

Ringing a cowbell.

Cowbell.

While the guy's trying to present

whatever he is.

He asks him to leave.

And he won't leave.

He stands up, and now he's walking toward the front of the room.

I mean, they ask him to leave.

They say, okay, okay, you made your point.

Get out.

Nope.

Walking up to the front of the room, and I'm going to walk in front of the screen.

so that's what he does uh watch this he gets into a little altercation with uh with one of the members of the college republicans club

okay

in front of the presentation i mean

how can you not want to engage this guy well you'd want to punch him square in the face is what you'd want to do whether you did it or not by engage i mean punch in the face yes i do i want to and i wasn't there Right.

It's very, it's very frustrating.

And, you know,

that's what he wants, right?

I mean,

he wants that engagement.

Yeah, I know that.

I know that.

And so

in your heart, you don't want to do it.

But

on the other side of your heart, you want to just punch him right in the face and get him out of there.

And that went on for over an hour.

The police were there.

The copy

security was there.

Does nothing.

Stands there.

I don't understand

how they make that happen.

At one point, the guy doing the presentation gets up in the guy's face, in the protester's face, doesn't do anything.

He's got his hands behind his back.

Right, but there you go.

He just walks up to him, and they're kind of pushing chests together.

And the cop comes up and moves the guy who's doing the presentation.

No.

How about you get him out of here?

You don't have the right to ruin this event.

Don't the people in the room that are there for the event

have the right to enjoy, to experience the event?

I would think so.

I mean, that's what they were there for.

They weren't there for you ringing your stupid cowbell for the cop.

The cops should have gotten him out of there.

I think so, too.

It's unbelievable that they didn't.

I'm not even talking about arresting him or anything.

I'm just saying, look, you made your point.

Get out.

Yeah, get out.

You're disrupting this event.

And so not allowed to do that.

He starts bragging about it on social media.

I've shut this entire S down all by myself, he bragged afterwards.

And so, you know, he got exactly what he wanted.

He got the publicity.

Oh, no kidding.

No joke about that.

And he got the satisfaction knowing that he shut the event down.

So the Republicans didn't have their event because of him and his cowbell.

And good for you.

Good for you.

Yeah, nice job.

Good for you.

Congratulations.

Have you ever seen, I can't think of a time when I've seen a person on the right go into an event on the left and do something similar?

No, but it sounds fun.

It does, doesn't it?

It sounds fun.

It makes me want to go buy a cowbell

and go to one of these socialist meetings at some egghead college and start ringing a bell.

You'd be arrested.

You would.

You'd be arrested.

Immediately.

You'd be arrested.

And it would be your fault.

And if there was any violence at all, it's all your fault.

Yeah, or they 100% five people would jump you and beat you senseless, and it'd be your fault.

Nothing would happen.

You'd report it, and then people would go, yeah, right.

Well, you deserved it.

You shouldn't have been there doing it.

What are you doing?

Why do you hate them?

You racist?

Exactly.

It's amazing.

Amazing.

It's agonizing, is what it is.

But, you know, this is what we have to deal with.

This is the,

it's, it's the environment right now.

It's not an environment conducive to being conservative.

And it's a...

The middle of that.

I mean, that's just civil society.

Right?

I mean, okay, so you disagree with this group that's presenting something in this room at a college.

Okay.

Fine.

Tough.

Move on.

Yeah.

Move on with your life.

It just doesn't, I don't, it doesn't, I don't comprehend that, how, how you, you need to then,

they can't have their say.

And I think that's how people on the right look at things and so that's why they don't disrupt events like this you know let them do their thing i don't care so what but they want to shut down right anybody on the right uh speaking out or doing a presentation or trying to educate other people um because they can't win the argument on ideas and they know it and so the and some of those beliefs are uh working by the way Because you can't say anything bad.

Right.

You can't say anything bad.

You can't even tweet anything bad.

you can't tweet bad, you can't think bad, we'll just because we're not going to show it.

You will be shut down, you'll be shut down, yeah, you'll be squashed.

Yes, the Blaze Radio Network

on demand.
