3/6/17 - Full Show

Speaker 1 This is the Blaze Radio on demand.

Speaker 4 Okay, so Trump took to Twitter over the weekend and said the evidence is overwhelming. They have wiretapped my phones at Trump Tower.
This is during the election.

Speaker 4 Comey,

Speaker 4 who was with the FBI, remember who the Republicans hated,

Speaker 4 then they loved. Now I think they're back to hating him again.
And the Democrats loved him, then hated him. He's back to being the love child of the Democrats.
He said this is nonsense.

Speaker 4 The FBI needs to dismiss it and dismiss it quickly.

Speaker 4 You know, the fact that everybody keeps switching sides on Comey says to me he may be the only man in America with any kind of credibility.

Speaker 10 He calls them as he sees them.

Speaker 4 I don't know, either that or he's just a fantastic game player and almost a psycho at that.

Speaker 4 We have the evidence that supposedly is overwhelming, plus

Speaker 7 a story that I found and I brought to the boys just a few minutes ago.

Speaker 14 And

Speaker 4 none of us will ever, no, sorry, Stu strangely will.

Speaker 4 None of us want to ever get into a pool ever again.

Speaker 4 We have to begin there right now.

Speaker 4 I will make a stand, i will raise my voice i will hold your hand

Speaker 4 because we have won i will be my drum

Speaker 4 i have made my choice we will overcome because we are one the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment this is the glenn beck program

Speaker 4 okay all right we're gonna get to the we're gonna get to the uh news of the day

Speaker 4 but I

Speaker 19 have to start here.

Speaker 24 Scientists have now confirmed the worst fears about pee in pool, and I believe that it is worse than your worst fears, at least mine.

Speaker 28 One in five Americans say they pee in the pool.

Speaker 10 Even Michael Phelps says everyone does it.

Speaker 2 Well,

Speaker 31 no, it's 80% said they didn't. Yeah,

Speaker 32 I don't.

Speaker 32 Yeah, you do.

Speaker 19 No, I don't.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 33 Jeffy, you pee in the pool?

Speaker 34 Oh, my gosh. He pees in the pool.

Speaker 36 We have bathrooms actually now, Jeffy. Would you actually

Speaker 37 peed in the pool before?

Speaker 36 In my life?

Speaker 2 I mean, probably

Speaker 2 a kid. Yeah.

Speaker 23 I remember they said about the red ring that went around you.

Speaker 19 And that freaked me out.

Speaker 39 I've never peed in the pool because I've always thought about that red ring.

Speaker 40 I believed that.

Speaker 29 Everybody used to say that, and I would just say, no, it didn't.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Right.

Speaker 41 So you're saying you might have a little bit of a ball.

Speaker 2 That's like a dare. Absolutely not.

Speaker 42 Absolutely not.

Speaker 43 Okay.

Speaker 23 Scientists have figured out a way to quantify how much urine is in our pool.

Speaker 29 I warn you,

Speaker 45 you are

Speaker 47 not going to like this.

Speaker 50 Research team tested 31 pools and hot tubs and found evidence in urine in every single one of them.

Speaker 53 On average,

Speaker 56 there were eight gallons of urine in a 110-gallon, gallon, 110,000 gallon pool and 18 and a half gallons of urine in a 220,000 gallon pool.

Speaker 60 No. The hot tubs, hold on.

Speaker 61 They found

Speaker 50 the hot tubs in hotels

Speaker 20 found to have three

Speaker 12 times the urine level of the worst swimming pool.

Speaker 36 That makes sense, right? It's just because it's so much less water, right? Percentage-wise, you're going to have a bad

Speaker 56 and you're also

Speaker 66 drinking and relaxing and other things.

Speaker 46 And I don't want to know what happens in hotel hot tubs.

Speaker 36 Luckily, it's at a very high temperature. So hopefully it's maybe, I don't know, killing all the bacteria.

Speaker 2 Or growing

Speaker 13 it too, yeah.

Speaker 54 I'm not sure.

Speaker 55 But I can't imagine now putting my head, especially in a hot tub.

Speaker 23 I've never done a hot tub at a hotel. Have you guys ever done a hotel hot tub?

Speaker 36 Tons of times. Yes.

Speaker 2 I'm a fan. I'm a big hot tub fan.
I don't like tons of tonight. I'm not experienced from there.

Speaker 30 I can't believe you because you won't drink out of a regular glass.

Speaker 66 You have to have a plastic cup.

Speaker 2 But it's not really a germ thing.

Speaker 36 And B, it's not about germs.

Speaker 42 So it's some other skeeve thing for a business.

Speaker 2 Yes, what is the skeeve thing there?

Speaker 13 No, go ahead. Come on, come on, come on.

Speaker 36 I don't mind explaining it, but

Speaker 36 we're getting off the exit here of the show. you want to get off the exit of the show to explain my knowledge lines what is the skeevi i don't know how to i basically i don't like i don't like

Speaker 36 come on i don't like like uh glasses for example if you have a glass and it goes through and it gets washed and sometimes there's food that gets caked on the inside or little pieces of food i don't like drinking liquids and getting solids but you can see

Speaker 2 yeah

Speaker 2 sometimes you can crappy restaurants are you at where there's food caked on the inside of the glass?

Speaker 36 I mean, it happens sometimes.

Speaker 37 Well, it does.

Speaker 2 It does.

Speaker 36 But sometimes when you get four.

Speaker 70 It happens a lot less than people peeing in pools.

Speaker 2 You open up your mouth. You're swimming in your house.
First of all, I don't drink pool water.

Speaker 2 I don't drink it either, but it gets into your mouth. It gets in your face.

Speaker 2 I don't also go up to a

Speaker 54 big,

Speaker 71 for instance.

Speaker 75 I'm not a cowboy, so I'm not going to go up to the spring, the little, the the big, huge, I don't even know what you call it, a big, huge tub where my cows or my horses are drinking and just wash my face in it because it's got cow slobber in it.

Speaker 77 Okay, that's not people.

Speaker 36 I guess that, because we all, I think we can all recognize that there's not an actual effect to either of these things. Like a piece of food in my cup doesn't do anything.

Speaker 36 Having pee in a pool, well, millions of people are swimming every day and not dying from the pool.

Speaker 36 It's the thought of it. It's a mental thing that doesn't actually make it anything.

Speaker 42 No, that's not what's killing all of us. Maybe it is.

Speaker 2 Hey, that's true. It's all I'm with you, Saturday.
That's true.

Speaker 2 I mean,

Speaker 2 it's the irony.

Speaker 54 Here's how, this is how I heard this story.

Speaker 19 I read this story over the weekend, and this is how I heard this story.

Speaker 78 80% of the water in your pool is peanut.

Speaker 2 And that's why, by the way, they didn't use percent.

Speaker 36 Yeah, they used 18 gallons to make it sound like, holy crap, I've been bathing in 18 gallons of urine.

Speaker 79 And that's in an Olympic-sized pool.

Speaker 2 Right, here's 220,000 gallons.

Speaker 36 An Olympic size is 660,000 gallons. Yes, we've done some science on this.

Speaker 36 So here is the percentage of urine in the pool that they're talking about.

Speaker 66 88%.

Speaker 36 This is a scare article, remember?

Speaker 10 68%.

Speaker 80 Zero.00.

Speaker 2 8%.

Speaker 2 8,000th of a percent. Okay, so yeah, eight thousandths of a percent.
Still, and by the way, don't mean that. And by the way, let me add on this one little fact here: urine is 95%

Speaker 36 water.

Speaker 2 Thank you. Okay, so there is something.

Speaker 77 It's that 5% that I don't like.

Speaker 5 It's that 5% that makes me never want to be in some place like Somalia having to drink my or somebody else's urine.

Speaker 36 And I get it. It's again, I think it's more in your head.
And the reason why the stupid glass thing bothers me and this doesn't is it's detectable, right? It's that detectable that there's 0.00.

Speaker 2 It's even worse.

Speaker 42 You don't know how much urine's getting in your eyes all the time.

Speaker 2 Yes, you do. 0.00.

Speaker 78 You just swam right then into like a whole concentration of P

Speaker 60 You wouldn't know.

Speaker 2 You wouldn't know.

Speaker 30 Certain section of the pool will never be the same for me.

Speaker 36 But the you wouldn't know it is a positive to me.

Speaker 15 I don't want to know it.

Speaker 2 Yes, we all know that this stuff.

Speaker 36 Like, it's the whole hot dogs thing, right? Where the hot dogs have a certain percentage of like weird feet or whatever the hell are in there.

Speaker 36 Like, everyone knows that there's bugs and there's rats and everything else in these things.

Speaker 76 There's a certain small difference.

Speaker 2 They're okay with it.

Speaker 36 But it doesn't do anything.

Speaker 23 That's why you have Hebrew National.

Speaker 75 Rabbis got to make sure there's no feet in those things.

Speaker 83 Right.

Speaker 72 No beak.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 I want a rabbi. I want a rabbi with my sausage.
That's what I want.

Speaker 2 we could talk about all the political stories today but this is the one that makes the difference no i'm this is the one this is the one that i'll be living all spring and summer can i ask a serious question i have a saline pool a saltwater pool oh okay

Speaker 72 do i have chlorine i don't do i do that 95 urine yeah right

Speaker 58 so they don't put chlorine in it

Speaker 42 and that's probably what they would say that the chlorine helps kill any of the

Speaker 2 does the salt help kill the things i don't know i don't know i think a pool person will I'm going to take the chemicals out and then all the bacteria is just growing.

Speaker 36 Just like a giant, you know.

Speaker 16 No, there's no bacteria that grows in it.

Speaker 40 No.

Speaker 87 And I think it's just because the salt killed, like the Dead Sea, right?

Speaker 40 Nothing can grow in it.

Speaker 88 The Dead Sea has a little extra salt.

Speaker 2 All I know is the pool does.

Speaker 23 That Morton's girl is going to be at the diving board

Speaker 2 all summer long, just pouring salt.

Speaker 90 All right.

Speaker 11 When we come back, I want to talk to you about

Speaker 93 the president came out and tweeted that they're trumping or they're they're um

Speaker 95 wiretapping my phones at trump tower

Speaker 2 um

Speaker 27 and

Speaker 97 what to think of this mark levin came out and built a compelling case i think we're talking about the wrong thing

Speaker 9 uh myself

Speaker 23 but we'll get into that here in just a second first let me um tell you about our sponsor this half hour sponsor this half hour is lifelock

Speaker 82 Did you know that your phone's charging cord can transmit data?

Speaker 36 Charging? Well, the cord itself is the same cord, but you're saying when it's plugged into the power source?

Speaker 97 Scammers know this.

Speaker 64 They're hoping that you'll plug into a compromised public charging port, airports, conference centers, or parks.

Speaker 98 It's known as juice hacking.

Speaker 99 Wow.

Speaker 22 It allows thieves to access personal data when you recharge your device in a public area.

Speaker 36 Oh, I've used those airport ones a bunch of times.

Speaker 42 That's

Speaker 2 terrifying. Yeah.
None.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 71 Identity theft is America's fastest growing crime, and there are things that the hackers know that we don't even know.

Speaker 92 Unbelievable. Welcome to the program.

Speaker 68 So let's go to

Speaker 23 Donald Trump and his tweet.

Speaker 73 First of all, let me preface it with this.

Speaker 109 Let's see what shakes out in this.

Speaker 35 There have been a lot of accusations of a lot of things.

Speaker 110 For instance, voter fraud, and there would be an investigation, but there is no investigation that is going on, and that we've pretty much moved on from.

Speaker 110 I fear that the president

Speaker 112 could be engaging in

Speaker 71 things that are

Speaker 19 that will position him as the little boy who cried wolf. And when he needs to be believed, will he be believed?

Speaker 9 That's one section.

Speaker 12 Second section, we shouldn't be surprised that they are wiretapping his phone.

Speaker 69 Now, I don't know if they are or not, but I believe we are arguing the wrong thing.

Speaker 66 We all know that this power was happening

Speaker 101 and this very exact same thing was happening to journalists under Barack Obama.

Speaker 105 And it will happen under Donald Trump.

Speaker 23 Not because Donald Trump is evil, but because Donald Trump can.

Speaker 66 It happened under Barack Obama because he can.

Speaker 57 Why can he?

Speaker 114 Because of the Patriot Act, because of the FISA courts, because of the fact that you only need an inkling.

Speaker 44 You know, I've got this feeling, Your Honor.

Speaker 64 You don't need to have real hard evidence.

Speaker 25 Otherwise, you wouldn't go to a FISA court.

Speaker 67 All you need is an inkling.

Speaker 60 Now,

Speaker 28 should it come as a surprise to us that they were listening to the Russians?

Speaker 2 No.

Speaker 24 That they're tapping the Russian embassy?

Speaker 61 No.

Speaker 51 Weren't we doing that in the 80s?

Speaker 95 Weren't we doing that in the 50s?

Speaker 118 We were trying to.

Speaker 55 Now we can.

Speaker 78 We're listening to Angela Merkel's phone.

Speaker 30 You don't think we're listening to Vladimir Putin's phone or the allies around him?

Speaker 118 Of course we are.

Speaker 60 And because of FISA, as long as we can tap theirs and they're making contact, the Patriot Act tells me I can now tap their phones too.

Speaker 120 Let's be consistent.

Speaker 11 Let's not make this about Donald Trump.

Speaker 50 Let's not make this about Barack Obama.

Speaker 55 Because that's what we did last time and we didn't win because then it only becomes about the person.

Speaker 65 Let's not make it about the person.

Speaker 48 Let's make it about the idea.

Speaker 67 Wiretapping of American citizens without evidence is wrong.

Speaker 8 If they have evidence and they can go to a regular judge, then they should.

Speaker 64 We know that they went to two FISA courts.

Speaker 2 Well,

Speaker 72 so

Speaker 123 why are we surprised?

Speaker 28 Why are we surprised by any of this?

Speaker 109 From The Guardian, John McCain passes dossier alleging secret Trump-Russia contacts to the FBI.

Speaker 21 From McClatchkey, FBI, five other agencies probe possible covert Kremlin aid to Trump.

Speaker 30 These are during the election.

Speaker 48 Intercepted Russian communications, part of inquiry into Trump associates, New York Times.

Speaker 16 NSA gets more latitude to share intercepted communications.

Speaker 60 New York Times.

Speaker 21 Flynn is said to have talked to Russians about sanctions before Trump took office.

Speaker 60 New York Times.

Speaker 21 Obama administration rushed to preserve evidence of Russian election hacking.

Speaker 60 New York Times.

Speaker 7 Inquiry on Trump aides includes intercepted Russian data from the Boston Globe.

Speaker 35 Of course they were listening. This is not a news story.

Speaker 36 I mean, the question, obviously, the way Trump put it was they hacked my phones, right?

Speaker 36 Likely what happened is they were monitoring Russians.

Speaker 36 that wound up coming in contact with people in his campaign. If it went further than that, we'll see evidence of it.
We already know that part of it, right?

Speaker 36 Like, as you just pointed out, there's 25,000 stories out there about that. We know that.

Speaker 36 And, you know, I think Rubio honestly had the best take on this, which is, you know, look, we got to see the evidence. If Trump has evidence, he'll present it.

Speaker 36 And if it's really bad, we'll go after it.

Speaker 2 If it's not, then we won't.

Speaker 8 There is no reason for us to be arguing about this.

Speaker 86 None.

Speaker 56 None whatsoever.

Speaker 125 The guy who made the accusation is the President of the United States of America.

Speaker 124 And if the President of the United States of America, the most powerful man in the world, cannot get access to his own agencies, which his own people head up now,

Speaker 25 and say, I want to see the evidence of what you guys were doing.

Speaker 40 If he can't get that, then we're lost anyway.

Speaker 23 We might as well shut the whole damn government down.

Speaker 36 I think what you can expect is the best possible case with the most unbelievable information you could ever have. to prove if this is true or not.
Yes. Because he has access to everything.

Speaker 36 So he's the president of the United States. So he will make make a great case, I'm sure,

Speaker 36 if he has the information. Or if he doesn't, and people are saying, oh, well, he's just trying to distract from his issues.
Well, then we won't get nothing out of it. Right.
But I mean,

Speaker 36 must we sit here and obsess about every twist and turn over these things?

Speaker 36 You know, because the president tweeted something, must we sit here and devote every minute of this show to trying to parse every single claim from either side?

Speaker 36 If this is real, we're going to get a huge investigation. It's going to be a massive story and we'll get all the information eventually.

Speaker 36 But must we sit here and obsess about every twist and turn over it? I'm much more interested in the pee in the pool.

Speaker 23 Well, I am more interested in making the case that the Patriot Act and these FISA courts should never be part of the.

Speaker 37 That's a great point.

Speaker 36 Again, it's a principle instead of an everyday twist and turn. I mean,

Speaker 85 let's not talk about Trump.

Speaker 20 Let's accept Trump at his word.

Speaker 126 Right.

Speaker 67 Because we know that it was happening with Barack Obama's administration.

Speaker 30 And

Speaker 87 and journalists, and they didn't seem to care.

Speaker 36 Fox News journalists, but

Speaker 50 they don't care this time. Only Fox cares this time.

Speaker 130 They didn't seem to care.

Speaker 30 Everybody just kind of moved on when it was just the journalists.

Speaker 119 Now the only reason why they care is because the right media is protecting the president and the left media is trying to bring down the president.

Speaker 120 So they've made a huge issue

Speaker 44 into

Speaker 109 an issue about people instead of the idea that we should not be wiretapping in secret courts.

Speaker 26 Period.

Speaker 36 And regardless of

Speaker 36 whether it happened with Barack Obama, let's just say, I mean, first of all, we don't know if it did yet. We don't have all the information, but let's say it did happen with Barack Obama or it didn't.

Speaker 36 The bottom line is it could happen

Speaker 36 with whatever president. If you're a Democrat right now and you're saying, absolutely not, this is a crazy accusation.

Speaker 36 you should instead attack the principal so Donald Trump doesn't do it to you in two years. Yes.

Speaker 36 Side with the idea that you should have privacy as an individual and these powers shouldn't be solely in the hands of the president to do whatever he wants with this.

Speaker 76 Consent courts.

Speaker 36 Someone's going to want to attack you with it eventually. Get rid of it now while you're pissed off.

Speaker 10 If it wasn't the last president and it's not this president, it may be the next president.

Speaker 4 But somebody nefarious is going to say, well, I have this tool. Let's just use this.

Speaker 9 Back in a minute.

Speaker 9 Mercury.

Speaker 9 This is the Glenbeck program.

Speaker 97 So let me let me explain.

Speaker 5 Let me go back to the

Speaker 19 idea with

Speaker 47 the FISA courts possibly saying, yes, you can monitor the people, Paul Manafort, in the Trump campaign, and then that's spreading.

Speaker 38 This is something that we talked about for a very long time.

Speaker 92 We've talked about it for the last eight years.

Speaker 125 You don't want that kind of power of the Patriot Act in the hands of any president.

Speaker 88 When we talked to the people who were in the intelligence community that had tried to blow the whistle to the American people under George W.

Speaker 117 Bush and then found themselves to be hunted, literally hunted as outcasts and possible lawbreakers for alerting the American people, nobody paid attention under George W.

Speaker 26 Bush.

Speaker 55 Then we paid attention under Barack Obama.

Speaker 9 And I asked those guys, why,

Speaker 119 how how do we end this?

Speaker 29 And they all said, if you remember the episode, all of them said, we never will.

Speaker 51 We'll never end it.

Speaker 115 Because

Speaker 92 whoever is in, they'll say, well, I need this power. I have to have this power.

Speaker 87 And I believe we're seeing that with the people, which is worse than the president.

Speaker 108 We're seeing it with the people.

Speaker 85 We should not be arguing about Donald Trump being wiretapped.

Speaker 121 Instead, the right should be saying, these these laws exist to allow this to happen.

Speaker 74 They need to be changed.

Speaker 124 Whether it happened or not, these laws need to be changed.

Speaker 102 But we don't

Speaker 85 because now we like to have that power for our president.

Speaker 30 We just don't like it used by another president.

Speaker 23 Let me give you an example.

Speaker 9 This is from CNN.

Speaker 51 He's instructed the Department of Homeland Security to reinterpret the laws on immigration and start building the border wall, the State Department to reinterpret visas and refugees.

Speaker 56 The HHS to reinterpret aspects of Obamacare.

Speaker 130 The EPA could be next.

Speaker 72 And President Trump has done it all without any real input from Congress, which, despite Republican majorities in both houses, must still move methodically and therefore is stagnant.

Speaker 30 That's nothing particular new in Washington.

Speaker 107 To the victor to a presidential election go the spoils of controlling the executive branch, which decides how exactly to execute the nation's laws.

Speaker 56 But the impact of Trump's actions, Colve could pull the thread of immigration and immigrants woven into the fabric of American society.

Speaker 8 Yes, Trump could change the fabric of the United States without changing any of its laws.

Speaker 111 Sorry, what?

Speaker 133 We're going to fundamentally transform what?

Speaker 42 And that was not a problem for him then.

Speaker 20 Not a problem.

Speaker 80 And he directly said it.

Speaker 39 Correct. And that still wasn't a problem.

Speaker 8 And they're not even making the case here that they need to restrict the power of the presidency.

Speaker 119 They're just saying, our guy is out.

Speaker 25 We have to stop this guy from doing it.

Speaker 42 And think of how misused the Patriot Act has been. We've never used it for terrorism.

Speaker 37 Up until

Speaker 42 the last time I saw the statistic a couple of years ago, it was like the FISA court had been used

Speaker 42 like 85% of the time for drugs.

Speaker 42 It's used to stop drug dealing and now apparently monitor people in presidential campaigns. It's not being used for terrorism and that's what it was set up for.

Speaker 2 It will never

Speaker 30 get worse.

Speaker 34 Yeah.

Speaker 84 You know, President Trump said, this is Nixon.

Speaker 13 No, it's not.

Speaker 48 No, it's not. It's much worse than Nixon.

Speaker 2 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 27 And Mr.

Speaker 26 Trump, I urge you.

Speaker 93 then to, instead of just making this into a political bout between you and Obama, I urge you then to lead the way and say, I'm removing, I'm doing everything I can.

Speaker 30 Congress must act to remove these laws so no president, no one in Congress, no one would have the power to go to a secret court with a hunch.

Speaker 2 Right.

Speaker 36 Can we too look at this from the perspective of the Democrats love this because they think it makes Trump look like this unhinged guy who makes accusations with no evidence.

Speaker 36 And so they love this part.

Speaker 36 The establishment Republicans love this because, look, we can talk about this instead of talking about doing the crap we put them there to do.

Speaker 37 Get rid of Obamacare.

Speaker 123 It's the same game we played under Obama.

Speaker 31 Lower the tax.

Speaker 42 We haven't talked about health care since Friday since his stuff broke.

Speaker 36 And so here we are, and I'm concerned that because this is, obviously, Trump likes this back and forth. It's where he's great.
You know,

Speaker 36 he loves getting in the middle of these messes.

Speaker 28 He is great at storyline.

Speaker 69 Yeah.

Speaker 2 And so controlling the storyline. But

Speaker 36 don't we want the storyline to be Obamacare, taxes, things like that?

Speaker 31 So

Speaker 36 is this going to set us off on this long? Because I mean, yes, can they do multiple things? Sure.

Speaker 36 But if the focus of the government is on trying to prove a president was hacking another president in an election, by the way, the second president won. It's not like he lost because of this.

Speaker 36 He actually won. Is it important if he did it? Absolutely.
And it should be investigated. But the focus should be on things that need to get done now.

Speaker 36 Because if we sit here and go through six months of investigations to try to prove that X, Y, or Z did X, Y, or Z, then we're campaigning for next year. Then we're campaigning for next year.

Speaker 36 And every Republican is going to say, look, I can't vote on this now because it's too close to the elections.

Speaker 36 We got to get these things done.

Speaker 36 And every piece of news seems to, and you're telling me the media isn't playing this game, seems to distract us from these goals of getting these actual giant programs put into some sort of order.

Speaker 36 Every single thing is about some personality thing. It's about some media conflict.
All of that does zilch for the actual American people. And if we don't get these things done now,

Speaker 36 it's going to go the other way. We're going to run out of time.
You're not going to have too long to do these things.

Speaker 129 It doesn't do anything for, but it does a lot to the American people.

Speaker 91 Who was the person that came out this weekend?

Speaker 27 Hang on if I have it.

Speaker 34 That said, you know, we, you know, hey, it's time to march.

Speaker 46 And, you know, in the past, there's been blood and death in the streets.

Speaker 2 Loretta Lynch. Yeah.
Loretta Lynch.

Speaker 102 Loretta Lynch.

Speaker 30 Listen to this.

Speaker 134 I know it's a time of concern for people who see our rights being assailed, being trampled on, and even being rolled back.

Speaker 42 Which rights are those that have been assailed, trampled on, and rolled back.

Speaker 73 Now, why would you say that, Pat?

Speaker 120 Why would you say that?

Speaker 42 Because that's exactly what they said in the very beginning of the Bush administration.

Speaker 51 No, no, no, no.

Speaker 8 That's what they said to us.

Speaker 37 And they said it to us

Speaker 76 during the Obama. Yes.
We would say why would you wait for that?

Speaker 2 Our rights.

Speaker 20 What rights?

Speaker 16 Be specific.

Speaker 2 What rights? Right.

Speaker 2 Right.

Speaker 80 And frankly,

Speaker 42 we were hard pressed to name the specifics because we knew there were violations.

Speaker 84 We knew that they were misusing their power.

Speaker 42 But it was really hard to point to any one thing and say, well, look, they've made it so we can't talk.

Speaker 26 We can't go to church. We can't.

Speaker 2 IRS? IRS. IRS.
That's a great one.

Speaker 32 And we have the

Speaker 29 freedom of press.

Speaker 39 Right.

Speaker 95 The wiretapping of the press, we know.

Speaker 42 All the prosecutions of the journalists under Obama, which was more than all other presidents could be done.

Speaker 41 Combined.

Speaker 76 How about the I want your church to deliver all of its sermons about homosexuality?

Speaker 72 Oh, yeah, in Houston.

Speaker 2 Right.

Speaker 8 You know, there are three big ones.

Speaker 44 Huge. Aren't all three of those in the First Amendment?

Speaker 3 So we just got to the First Amendment.

Speaker 79 certainly there's no violations of the second

Speaker 2 i mean they seen me right

Speaker 11 taking away taking away every person who is a social security uh that had what was it that that had somebody else picking up their check if you didn't go and pick up your check in person or cash your check in person you lost your right to guns Now, they just overturned that.

Speaker 21 That was one of the last things he did.

Speaker 84 And he just took that through executive order and took it.

Speaker 2 Which is great. Good question.
Listen to that. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 134 But there's more. I know that this is difficult, but I remind you that this has never been easy.

Speaker 134 We have always had to work to move this country forward to achieve the great ideals of our founding fathers.

Speaker 134 And it has been people.

Speaker 30 Play one more line.

Speaker 134 Individuals who have banded together, ordinary people who simply saw what needed to be done and came together and supported those ideals.

Speaker 121 Isn't that exactly exactly what the Tea Party did?

Speaker 79 Yes. Yes.

Speaker 130 Isn't it just simple?

Speaker 42 And they condemn them as violent

Speaker 16 racists. Crazies.

Speaker 2 We call it.

Speaker 44 This is not going to be easy.

Speaker 15 We have no heritage of doing this.

Speaker 9 But it is time for good people to stand up and say, no, this is not who we are. And stand up peacefully.

Speaker 97 And that was deemed we were anti-government.

Speaker 42 And it was the last thing in the world any of us wanted to do.

Speaker 2 Because we don't do that. We don't do it.

Speaker 42 We all have jobs unlike the left.

Speaker 76 Okay, so first,

Speaker 135 first,

Speaker 16 she says our rights are being trampled.

Speaker 22 And it would be very easy for us to say, what rights?

Speaker 62 Yeah.

Speaker 64 Just like they did.

Speaker 32 Just like they did.

Speaker 20 But that's not helpful.

Speaker 2 Then,

Speaker 2 but it is fun.

Speaker 76 It is fun. I will say that.

Speaker 82 Then she says it's just ordinary people.

Speaker 102 And we could say, oh, like us?

Speaker 42 Yeah.

Speaker 66 probably shouldn't say that but it is fun

Speaker 134 and then the third one who have made the difference they've marched they've bled yes some of them have died this is hard every good thing is we have done this before we can do this again She's

Speaker 24 saying that you might have to bleed and die on the streets for it.

Speaker 62 Is she calling for violence?

Speaker 37 Right. Is that too much of a stretch? I'll tell you, that's a lot less less of a stretch than

Speaker 42 we're targeting this district.

Speaker 2 Yes.

Speaker 2 A lot less. That's for sure.
Yeah. I mean, I see that.
And they have

Speaker 20 the left

Speaker 121 has the heritage of doing that.

Speaker 38 It was the Weather Underground that was the left.

Speaker 99 It was Malcolm X that was the left.

Speaker 21 I mean, it was the Black Panthers that were the left.

Speaker 2 So help us out.

Speaker 36 Half of these people are marching in Che Guevara t-shirts. Yes.

Speaker 2 Which was the left. Right.

Speaker 67 right i mean it's it's so very clear and again we could spend time talking about that

Speaker 123 and it feels good

Speaker 23 yeah it does does but it's not helpful pat and i had an argument about something uh this morning at like six o'clock we both get in and we had a we had a heated argument about something and what ended the argument was what are we doing?

Speaker 44 What are we doing right now at the time that is the most important of our or anyone's lifetime?

Speaker 81 In our particular case, Pat and I believe that in our lifetime, Jesus might come back.

Speaker 104 If you believe that,

Speaker 62 what are we doing?

Speaker 24 What are we doing arguing about little things?

Speaker 9 For instance, I had a discussion with somebody over the

Speaker 40 last week

Speaker 85 about the Bible.

Speaker 95 And they were talking about, well, are you really Bible believing?

Speaker 94 I'm like, oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 I don't know.

Speaker 23 I don't know because I don't know how you define if I'm Bible believing, but okay.

Speaker 99 And this individual who I really, really like, really like,

Speaker 130 she said, you're a better person than I am because

Speaker 45 you

Speaker 83 have found a way to love people who are in error.

Speaker 32 now okay all right I got it I got it now

Speaker 101 let's let's look at what the point of the Bible is

Speaker 133 is the point of the Bible that we're all supposed to go on church on Sunday no is the point of the Bible that we're all supposed to

Speaker 121 receive sacrament in a certain way no

Speaker 138 is the point of the Bible what the point of the Bible is you find it in John I think 15,

Speaker 85 where it talks about God loves you,

Speaker 27 and

Speaker 30 God loved his son, and his son came down, I'm wildly paraphrasing, his

Speaker 3 son came down, and he loved us just like the father loved him.

Speaker 95 And now we're supposed to do it.

Speaker 2 Well,

Speaker 42 and that is the whole point of the New Testament.

Speaker 2 Correct.

Speaker 33 We're supposed to love like God loved his son.

Speaker 50 He loved us.

Speaker 109 We're supposed to love whom?

Speaker 118 Those in error.

Speaker 99 The whole point of the Bible, that we're bashing each other.

Speaker 32 Fact beyond those in error are enemies.

Speaker 74 And enemies.

Speaker 73 We're supposed to love everybody.

Speaker 67 So anything that we're not doing, anytime that we are creating, especially at this time,

Speaker 98 real contention, and I don't mean that you don't correct error.

Speaker 64 You do correct error.

Speaker 3 But you don't

Speaker 73 you don't do it gleefully.

Speaker 95 You don't do it with a sense of vengeance.

Speaker 73 We're supposed to love each other.

Speaker 65 And unfortunately, I don't hear that message anywhere.

Speaker 36 I think we owe it to the audience, the backstory of the argument. There was one donut left.

Speaker 2 Thank you. Thank you.

Speaker 42 And now this. England Dan and John Ford Coley did have the answer.

Speaker 136 Love is the answer.

Speaker 35 Thank you for that 1970s reference.

Speaker 111 I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 And now this: Pro Flowers has come out with the ultimate solution. John Ford Coley.
Oh, huge. England Dan and John Ford Cole Cole.

Speaker 22 Shut up. They were huge.

Speaker 2 Pro Flowers has come out with the ultimate.

Speaker 4 Can I please get through the ultimate solution to ensure you remember the dates that matter?

Speaker 7 For instance, your wife's birthday. When is it, Stu?

Speaker 36 October 18th.

Speaker 47 Your mom's birthday?

Speaker 36 September 24th.

Speaker 46 Wow. Nice.
Nice.

Speaker 2 How do we know those dates are actually scheduled?

Speaker 76 ProFlowers has just launched their brand new Pro Gifter service.

Speaker 85 I love this.

Speaker 8 It is the easiest fail-proof way to never forget an event and look awesome all year.

Speaker 26 The Pro Gifter Service

Speaker 107 allows you to schedule three bouquet deliveries, same or different, to three different addresses.

Speaker 23 to up to one year in advance.

Speaker 53 So I want to remember my mom's birthday, my wife's birthday, anniversary.

Speaker 23 They have it taken care of.

Speaker 95 One phone call. Do it now.

Speaker 21 Go to proflowers.com.

Speaker 29 Look for the pro gifter banner right there on the homepage.

Speaker 21 It's proflowers.com.

Speaker 73 Click on pro gifter, proflowers.com.

Speaker 2 This is

Speaker 2 the Glenn Beck Program.

Speaker 2 Mercury.

Speaker 139 The Glenn Beck Program.

Speaker 4 I'm going to take Roger from Nebraska.

Speaker 140 roger go ahead buddy hey thanks slim for all you do thank you sir back in the back in the benghazi days does anybody remember a a cbs reporter named cheryl atkins atkinson yes

Speaker 12 yep who had who had a mission impossible style scenario in her apartment where somebody came in there and set up a wireless wi-fi you're exact roger you are exactly right thanks for your call this is why we have to make sure the argument is about the patriot act and spying

Speaker 4 No wireless,

Speaker 4 I mean, wiretapping from FISA cords.

Speaker 127 We gotta stop it.

Speaker 2 This is the Glenn Beck program.

Speaker 139 Mercury.

Speaker 1 This is the Blaze Radio on demand.

Speaker 8 I'm reading something

Speaker 141 that we have shared before on the air, but I wanted to share the moral foundations theory in a different way.

Speaker 4 It is always frustrating to, for instance, last week during the State of the Union, when the president said, you know, we want you to come in here merit-based.

Speaker 67 And we said at the time,

Speaker 4 why do the Democrats, why do they boo or hiss, or why do they not clap for merit? How can you be against merit?

Speaker 28 I want to explain this, and I think it's an important distinction.

Speaker 4 Also, I think we need to have a,

Speaker 4 I think we are approaching a time of the Bill Clinton blue dress.

Speaker 7 If we're not careful,

Speaker 4 The Monica Lewinsky story in a different way, I believe, may be playing out right now.

Speaker 4 It's time for all of us to be on record.

Speaker 129 And we begin there right now.

Speaker 129 I have made my choice. We will overcome.

Speaker 129 Cause we are one.

Speaker 2 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program.

Speaker 75 Pat and I had a pretty serious argument this morning.

Speaker 34 That's the most serious argument we've had in a long time, isn't it?

Speaker 9 It's been a while, yeah.

Speaker 46 And I'm happy to say, 20 minutes, not even that, 10 minutes after, Pat walked in and

Speaker 125 continued to argue, and I told him I forgive him.

Speaker 23 But Pat walked in, and we both at the same time looked at each other and said, I love you and I respect you and I'm sorry.

Speaker 95 But that's something that comes from a friendship that has been tried and true since 1989.

Speaker 2 Yeah,

Speaker 42 it illustrates how difficult our task is between right and left because we don't have that relationship with most people on the left, certainly not Nancy Pelosi's of the world. And so

Speaker 36 it's really tough to get beyond that.

Speaker 42 Right.

Speaker 23 And so we were not having a conversation between about right and left today.

Speaker 117 We were having something a little more personal.

Speaker 133 And do you mind if we share it later on in the show?

Speaker 42 Who won the argument? Well, I did, of course.

Speaker 2 I'm going to let him say that. Oh, wait, now you're...

Speaker 86 No, no, no, because, you know, he needs that to feel good.

Speaker 129 We'll talk about it here

Speaker 18 in a little while as it plays into a couple of things.

Speaker 14 First, let's start with Donald Trump and the wiretapping.

Speaker 63 We were talking about it last hour, and I want to share something that I think is really important because

Speaker 55 major game players,

Speaker 65 we are pawns in a massive political game.

Speaker 23 We think that we're in charge.

Speaker 93 We think that we

Speaker 18 are

Speaker 34 up to speed on everything and that we matter.

Speaker 90 I'm not convinced that we really do all that much until we act in a way that they don't understand, that Washington isn't expecting.

Speaker 87 For instance, the Tea Party.

Speaker 95 That was conservatives acting in a way they have never acted ever before, and they didn't know what to do with it.

Speaker 23 Right now, the left is reaching out, and Hillary Clinton says,

Speaker 121 disruption is what we do best.

Speaker 64 Marches, what we do best.

Speaker 64 So you're being used by the, or

Speaker 28 you're at least playing in to what the Democratic Party wants you to do if you're marching.

Speaker 23 Now, it may be the right thing to do.

Speaker 96 It may not be. That's up to you to decide.

Speaker 98 But you're in playing the game with them.

Speaker 28 You're on the same side.

Speaker 87 The Tea Party became that in the last few years, that it was kind of co-opted by the GOP.

Speaker 10 Evidence, and this is the way

Speaker 24 staffers on the Hill are treating Reintz Priebus.

Speaker 131 Remember, Reinz Priebus was a worthless piece of skin.

Speaker 94 Remember, anybody remember that?

Speaker 126 Reinz Priebus to Tea Partiers was horrible.

Speaker 83 Now on the Hill, Reinz Priebus is being treated as if he is the president of the United States.

Speaker 30 They are actually treating him on the Hill.

Speaker 95 They're not even going to Trump.

Speaker 12 They're going to Reintz.

Speaker 87 Reinz has gone from the worst guy ever

Speaker 71 to really, in some ways, the acting president.

Speaker 87 And nobody said anything.

Speaker 67 How did that happen?

Speaker 18 By pitting people against each other, by

Speaker 135 a carefully crafted narrative,

Speaker 96 those things can change.

Speaker 137 And because of loyalty.

Speaker 2 Now,

Speaker 34 let me bring you to Monica Lewinsky.

Speaker 125 What happened at the beginning of the Monica Lewinsky story?

Speaker 35 Matt Drudge broke a story.

Speaker 27 And

Speaker 12 those of us who saw Bill Clinton's character in 92 and were bothered by it, but forgave him and said, you know what, if his wife has forgiven him, then who are we to say?

Speaker 104 But we all knew, at least Pat and I talked about it on the air at the time, that, okay, this guy is, he's a dirtbag.

Speaker 48 But

Speaker 28 everybody makes a mistake, makes a mistake.

Speaker 25 And if he's made, I don't care how many mistakes he's made in the past, if he has solved it with his wife and with God, it's none of our business until the next time.

Speaker 30 So when Monica Lewinsky happened,

Speaker 87 we felt it's clearly true.

Speaker 94 And what happened?

Speaker 83 The right said it was true, and the left said, no, it's not.

Speaker 24 And we argued for eight months.

Speaker 23 Happened? No, it didn't.

Speaker 107 Yes, it did.

Speaker 23 No, it didn't. Yes, it did.
No, it didn't. Yes, it did.

Speaker 121 Yes, it did.

Speaker 28 Well, yes, it did, but it doesn't matter.

Speaker 96 Yes, it does. No, it doesn't.
Yes, it does.

Speaker 9 No, it doesn't.

Speaker 36 And it was over.

Speaker 2 I told you

Speaker 60 that

Speaker 55 Trump was playing a game with the intelligence community,

Speaker 28 and the intelligence community was going to teach him a lesson, right?

Speaker 88 That when he started picking on the intelligence community, it was a game he was going to lose.

Speaker 121 Well, he's just changed the seating at the table.

Speaker 28 I explained to you, if you pick a fight with the intelligence community, A, you better be right.

Speaker 76 and you also better know that because of prism and everything else they have all of the information they need especially if it's outside of the country they're watching they they can get all of the phone calls they need anywhere in the world so when trump said my people aren't doing this and this is just the intelligence community I said at the time, if it's true,

Speaker 67 they will come out with some some evidence.

Speaker 83 Well, what did they do?

Speaker 28 They came out with some evidence and said, here's what the intelligence community believes is true.

Speaker 8 And somebody else came out with a bunch of stuff that wasn't true.

Speaker 28 And I said,

Speaker 121 if he doesn't stop swinging at them,

Speaker 30 They're going to come out with the transcript or they're going to come out with the tapes

Speaker 87 Do you notice this weekend?

Speaker 30 he didn't swing at the intelligence community?

Speaker 61 He swung at Barack Obama.

Speaker 45 Why?

Speaker 28 Why has he been building this case that this is an out-of-control intelligence community?

Speaker 119 And now all of a sudden, he's saying it was an out-of-control president

Speaker 28 who was using the intelligence community

Speaker 90 because he knows he cannot win against the intelligence community.

Speaker 83 But you don't have to win

Speaker 95 against Barack Obama.

Speaker 24 You're feeding your own people red meat.

Speaker 84 And by feeding your own people red meat, and by the way, I happen to believe that they were spying on Donald Trump.

Speaker 34 And the only reason I have to believe that is

Speaker 9 all of the press accounts during the election said there were investigations going on.

Speaker 28 So why wouldn't they be listening to the Russians?

Speaker 60 And if the Russians were calling Trump tower, yes, they would be having that too.

Speaker 84 It's called the Patriot Act. It's called the FISA courts.

Speaker 24 Two times FISA courts ruled that they can do this.

Speaker 64 Of course they're doing this.

Speaker 8 It's why we said no to FISA courts and that we should not renew.

Speaker 96 In fact, we should repeal the Patriot Act.

Speaker 25 Why else would I believe that the president would do that?

Speaker 114 Well, because he did that to reporters, and nobody seemed to care then.

Speaker 91 So I happen to believe that what Trump said is true, that they were spying on him.

Speaker 121 But not the intelligence community this time.

Speaker 137 The targets moved to Obama.

Speaker 25 So now we've supercharged the argument.

Speaker 98 We've gotten away from principles, and we've gotten away from something that the American people generally on both sides trust the intelligence community.

Speaker 66 Now we've polarized it and made it about two people, Obama or Trump.

Speaker 8 And so now if the intelligence community would come out and if somebody would leak an audio tape It's my contention that in

Speaker 104 the next few, let's say a month goes by or God forbid eight months go by and they have the tapes of Paul Manafort and others, you will have the right saying it doesn't matter

Speaker 55 because it will have been fought by the troops, us

Speaker 61 versus them.

Speaker 64 It will be fought by the troops as left or right, Obama or Trump.

Speaker 28 Which one do you believe?

Speaker 24 Which one are you for?

Speaker 109 And so no matter which side proves, let's say we prove that Obama was spying.

Speaker 116 It won't matter to the people on the left.

Speaker 8 Let's say they prove that, yes, he was spying, but Donald Trump's people were saying bad things to the Russians or anything to the Russians.

Speaker 46 Won't matter to the right.

Speaker 96 No, he didn't. Yes, he did.

Speaker 35 No, he didn't. Yes, he did.
Oh, yes, he did.

Speaker 34 Doesn't matter.

Speaker 103 Yes, it does. No, it doesn't.
Yes, it does. No, it doesn't.

Speaker 19 Except this time, we'll both be playing it doesn't matter.

Speaker 72 And it will only, it will discredit what really happened and the original argument.

Speaker 51 The original argument was, here is the most powerful man in the world, Bill Clinton, preying on a 19-year-old intern.

Speaker 65 and having sex and doing awful things in the Oval Office.

Speaker 29 That was the original premise.

Speaker 8 But after eight months, it became, well, it's a personal issue between him and his wife.

Speaker 95 Let's remember the original premise, and there's two.

Speaker 85 Should any president have the power to be able to wiretap anybody's phone through a FISA court?

Speaker 135 If you have a hunch, you bring it to a FISA court.

Speaker 121 If you have evidence, you bring it to a real court.

Speaker 47 FISA courts should be abolished along with the Patriot Act.

Speaker 33 That's premise number one.

Speaker 9 Should a president be able to have access to the, or anyone, access to a secret court where you don't have to

Speaker 107 present evidence?

Speaker 52 Just a hunch.

Speaker 2 Answer: no.

Speaker 43 Two,

Speaker 121 should any president and or his surrogates be speaking to the Russians during an election, and I don't mean Jeff Sessions speaking to an ambassador, unless those conversations veered into something as and he became a Trump surrogate,

Speaker 49 then that's wrong.

Speaker 130 Should they have conversations with Russians and take information or quite honestly even encourage the Russians to go look for more?

Speaker 51 The answer is no.

Speaker 52 It's time for all of us to go on to record right now

Speaker 93 on those two issues.

Speaker 39 Should a presidential candidate be colluding with the Russians?

Speaker 2 Nope.

Speaker 95 Should the United States government be able to go to a secret court on a hunch and wiretap your phones and spy on you?

Speaker 75 Nope.

Speaker 99 Those are the ideas.

Speaker 8 Those are the things that large minds will talk about.

Speaker 91 Small minds will make it about Trump versus Obama.

Speaker 36 And the same thing goes to Democrats about Obama. If the evidence comes out that he did tap these phones, will it matter? Will it matter? It should.

Speaker 62 Should. And so.

Speaker 76 That's why I say those two things.

Speaker 2 It won't matter to the left and it won't matter to the right.

Speaker 65 And what, so then what happens?

Speaker 30 You just ratchet it up that we're both enemies when we're not talking about principles.

Speaker 124 Small minds talk about people.

Speaker 95 Average minds talk about events.

Speaker 115 Large minds take and talk about ideas.

Speaker 99 The idea,

Speaker 43 twofold.

Speaker 51 Should a candidate be talking to a foreign government that is hostile to us during an election?

Speaker 27 No.

Speaker 107 Should we have secret courts where you don't really have to present real evidence that wouldn't be accepted in a regular court for wiretaps that can spread to other people?

Speaker 128 Answer no.

Speaker 95 Sponsor, this half hour is

Speaker 91 My Patriot Supply.

Speaker 56 I don't know if you've seen the stock market lately, breaking new records, right?

Speaker 27 I had a a friend

Speaker 110 that

Speaker 18 said, you know, Glenn, I think we're headed for a melt-up.

Speaker 95 Have you ever heard of a melt-up?

Speaker 11 It's an actual economic term.

Speaker 2 No, no.

Speaker 52 Melt-up happens right before a meltdown.

Speaker 83 It's when everybody realizes that things are really not tied to principles anymore, but I can make money.

Speaker 46 And so they dump money into the markets and the market goes hog wild.

Speaker 26 Okay.

Speaker 117 Happened right before the Great Depression.

Speaker 52 Market went through the roof on no principles.

Speaker 91 Then it crashed. That's a melt-up to a meltdown.

Speaker 133 He said, I think we're in a melt up.

Speaker 30 We might be,

Speaker 53 but we are definitely heading for one.

Speaker 83 I don't know if there's any room left to grow, but I mean, as he wrote, I could see the Dow at 40,000 because what's driving it?

Speaker 30 Now the banks are taking low interest rate money from the Fed, and what are they doing? They're investing it directly into the stock market.

Speaker 128 That's not good.

Speaker 45 We

Speaker 103 could be headed for 1929-1933.

Speaker 95 Some economists believe a 50% collapse in the market is not far off.

Speaker 88 What happens when things don't go as you have planned?

Speaker 84 I want you to call my Patriot Supply, get their four-week survival food supply for only $99, breakfast, lunch, and dinners for an entire month.

Speaker 95 $99.

Speaker 73 Pack fresh, ship-free.

Speaker 95 Food that lasts up to 25 years could save your life.

Speaker 106 Glenn Beck Program triple eight seven two seven back

Speaker 139 Mercury

Speaker 106 the Glenn Beck Program

Speaker 117 Welcome to the program

Speaker 19 so glad that you are so glad that you're here. You know the the

Speaker 40 the

Speaker 98 Everything that we say now

Speaker 51 is taken taken and run with even though it may not be the way we feel.

Speaker 46 What I just said a few minutes ago is going to be interpreted

Speaker 18 five different ways.

Speaker 27 And

Speaker 35 some people who listen to the program will say, Glenn's anti-Trump.

Speaker 23 Some people who heard that same exact monologue will say, there he goes, excusing Trump.

Speaker 121 It doesn't matter anymore

Speaker 98 because emotions are in charge.

Speaker 9 And so no one can

Speaker 113 actually speak to you

Speaker 71 because of emotions.

Speaker 64 It's hard.

Speaker 68 It's really hard.

Speaker 117 Pat and I were talking today, and we were talking about religion.

Speaker 27 And

Speaker 129 I have a real problem.

Speaker 143 My spirituality is really good.

Speaker 11 My connection with God and my testimony is rock solid.

Speaker 2 But my problem with religion is deep right now.

Speaker 27 And

Speaker 116 here we are two best friends.

Speaker 35 Of the same religion. Of the same religion.

Speaker 133 And we were at each other's throats.

Speaker 4 At each other's throats.

Speaker 11 And I mean in a bad, a really bad way.

Speaker 28 He walked out of the room and I thought, how are we going to do today's show?

Speaker 91 Luckily, because we're good friends, we solved it and we're fine with each other.

Speaker 4 But I want to take you through that exercise, not about that topic. Next.

Speaker 2 The Glenn Beck program.

Speaker 2 Mercury.

Speaker 2 This is the Glenn Beck program.

Speaker 17 Did you see the latest from Ford?

Speaker 18 The

Speaker 46 van that

Speaker 34 a self-driving that makes almost instant deliveries with the van and then launches drones from the van.

Speaker 2 All self-driving.

Speaker 94 It's phenomenal.

Speaker 34 It's a giant truck.

Speaker 35 I'll have to show you the video.

Speaker 18 It's a giant van, a Ford van, all self-driving.

Speaker 68 So it's just a crate with wheels.

Speaker 34 And

Speaker 39 you can call up the grocery store and say, I want these groceries.

Speaker 46 So the grocery store will have one of those vans.

Speaker 17 They put your order together, put it in the van.

Speaker 95 The van drives around town to deliver.

Speaker 64 It's self-driving.

Speaker 125 You don't have to be home.

Speaker 92 A shelf pops out.

Speaker 23 It's your box of groceries.

Speaker 95 A drone is launched from the top of the van.

Speaker 110 It picks the box up, flies it to your doorway.

Speaker 40 And

Speaker 19 it showed the future, if you live in an apartment complex, that it will either drop it on your porch or there will be a shelf for deliveries for

Speaker 9 outside your window.

Speaker 2 I saw the present for the UPS trucks and stuff.

Speaker 136 I don't know that I saw the Ford one, but it's really cool how the big, how the roof opens up where the drone sits.

Speaker 63 Yeah.

Speaker 141 You know, then the packages fly off.

Speaker 2 Yeah. It closes really cool.

Speaker 107 I mean, it's amazing what's happening.

Speaker 27 We'll talk about this coming up in just a second.

Speaker 39 I want to talk a little bit about our argument.

Speaker 14 And,

Speaker 112 you know,

Speaker 142 Pat

Speaker 93 was, you know, he came close to calling me, you know,

Speaker 112 a name, and I came close to

Speaker 2 sharing one name. Wow, no, he did.

Speaker 94 I didn't call you a name.

Speaker 27 And I came very close to forgiving him and wishing him blessings

Speaker 23 throughout his life, no matter what his perspective.

Speaker 2 That's the way I remember it.

Speaker 36 Well, you seem like the better person here. Glad I was going to say that.

Speaker 2 I know it comes off that way.

Speaker 4 I don't mean it to, Stu.

Speaker 2 I really don't.

Speaker 23 Okay, so basically we were having a conversation where, if I may sum up, Pat, and feel free to correct me.

Speaker 71 The summary is that we were,

Speaker 51 I was trying to talk about language,

Speaker 59 and Pat was trying to talk about

Speaker 59 substance, if you will.

Speaker 75 And we got to the very end of the conversation and I said, Pat,

Speaker 98 I don't disagree with you on any of the substance.

Speaker 23 I'm not talking to you about substance, I'm talking to you about language.

Speaker 119 But it was such an emotional topic.

Speaker 65 Is that right?

Speaker 2 Yes, Pat.

Speaker 59 So it was such an emotional conversation for the two of us that I was protecting myself and my point of view on something, and I felt under attack.

Speaker 5 And I think Pat was protecting his views and

Speaker 27 protecting what he holds dear, and he felt under attack

Speaker 86 and so neither one of us were going to make any inroad at all at all

Speaker 99 and here we are best friends who do you believe pat that we believe the same things yes yes

Speaker 2 so

Speaker 64 here we are two people who believe the same thing

Speaker 7 but are approaching it in a different way

Speaker 27 and

Speaker 23 we can't, our emotions got so hot, we we almost,

Speaker 34 lesser friends would have walked away and said, you know what, I'm done with him.

Speaker 42 Or simply acquaintances.

Speaker 123 Oh, acquaintances, you would have been done.

Speaker 32 I hate this guy.

Speaker 128 Yeah.

Speaker 35 I hate this guy.

Speaker 95 It took real control for both of us to watch our language on what we said to each other because our relationship was important.

Speaker 84 And then to come back together and both of us apologized at exactly the same time.

Speaker 14 That's not happening in real life with people you just know.

Speaker 42 No. Right.
And it's certainly not happening on the internet where this stuff really gets heated and really causes bad feelings.

Speaker 42 The internet, when you're not looking somebody in the face, you can say all kinds of things to them. And it has no effect on you at the time because you can't see their reaction.
Correct.

Speaker 98 So this brings me to

Speaker 83 The Righteous Mind, a book that I'm reading, The Righteous Mind, Why Good People Are Divided by by Politics and Religion.

Speaker 28 And I want you to read this.

Speaker 26 I want you to read this book.

Speaker 23 It's really good.

Speaker 112 And to me, it is one of the only things that provide

Speaker 99 with a way to

Speaker 71 understand

Speaker 28 some of the stuff that I'm talking about and some of the stuff that is causing such great confusion with people.

Speaker 74 Because I refuse to play the game anymore.

Speaker 98 Because the game,

Speaker 107 the only way to win is to not play the game

Speaker 107 the game will end up the same way over and over and over again with us fighting for a personality and we got to stop that but our language is so different and this is actually what our argument was about this morning was language of religion not the principles the language of the religion.

Speaker 112 And I was talking to Pat about how in our faith we talk about the atonement

Speaker 60 and how in,

Speaker 88 let's say, Baptist faith, they will talk about being washed clean in the blood of Jesus.

Speaker 13 Now,

Speaker 55 my faith finds that language weird

Speaker 27 and

Speaker 102 a little off-putting.

Speaker 86 Atonement

Speaker 28 to a Baptist, and I hate to speak for Baptists, but seems a little cold and distant and does that mean the same thing as being washed clean yeah it means exactly the same thing

Speaker 72 but we

Speaker 8 we separate and this is a small example we separate into groups the more things like that in politics and religion where you just use different language it separates you and you think you're not you think you're against each other and you're not against each other you're saying the same thing you just don't realize it.

Speaker 136 I'm going to read this from this book.

Speaker 25 Moral foundations theory can now explain one of the great puzzles that has preoccupied Democrats in recent years.

Speaker 65 Why do rural and working class Americans generally vote Republican when it is the Democratic Party that wants to redistribute more money more evenly?

Speaker 120 Now, Democrats can't figure out why is it that coal miners and everybody else, they'll say, you're voting against your own interest.

Speaker 25 We're going to redistribute the wealth.

Speaker 98 We're going to take it from the rich and give it.

Speaker 59 Because they see that as fairness and justice.

Speaker 135 Well, here's the problem.

Speaker 95 From the perspective of the moral foundation theory, rural and working class voters were in fact voting for their moral interest.

Speaker 104 They don't want to eat at the true test, taste, test restaurant.

Speaker 28 They don't want their nation to devote itself primarily to the care of victims and the pursuit of social justice.

Speaker 10 So, now let me explain this, and I'm going to use extremes.

Speaker 23 So, I'm not, I'm going to use absolutes, but I understand these aren't absolutes.

Speaker 114 The left sees the victim very clearly,

Speaker 48 and it doesn't necessarily matter to them how the victim got there, it's just that it's a victim, and they see the victim, and they want their care part of them,

Speaker 132 their kindness, their empathy, that focuses them on the victim.

Speaker 49 Gross generalization, another gross generalization.

Speaker 62 The right

Speaker 64 sees the problem

Speaker 12 and they see someone, the same person they'll say, well, but that's a welfare mom who has eight kids.

Speaker 130 and is just getting checks from the government.

Speaker 34 It doesn't want to work.

Speaker 35 Gross generalization.

Speaker 62 The right,

Speaker 28 according to studies, the right actually sees the victim as well, but it is less

Speaker 43 of that.

Speaker 99 Okay? It's more of the welfare mom

Speaker 65 with mixed in victimhood.

Speaker 128 The left generally only sees the victim.

Speaker 121 and then sees people who say things like that

Speaker 119 as

Speaker 66 as oppressors.

Speaker 10 You're only victimizing them again.

Speaker 120 And so sets it apart.

Speaker 64 They're not able to separate the victim from some of the causes

Speaker 137 because victimhood drives them.

Speaker 114 And they feel like I'm going to help the oppressor,

Speaker 8 I'm going to help the victim by hurting the oppressor and taking money from the oppressor and giving it to the victim.

Speaker 87 What they miss is

Speaker 10 fairness is not equated the same way

Speaker 35 The left doesn't see fairness the way we see fairness.

Speaker 128 I don't even like the word fairness generally because it seems to imply something else to the left and it does

Speaker 59 Fairness implies redistribution of wealth

Speaker 10 But what to the rest of the country what fairness means is

Speaker 35 Let me say it this way first.

Speaker 11 To the rest of the country, fairness means merit.

Speaker 121 You got to work an honest day for an honest dollar.

Speaker 55 If you want to make it, you've got to put it all in.

Speaker 24 Through your merit, you'll succeed.

Speaker 23 Now, we all know that that's not universally true.

Speaker 24 That leads the left to dismiss the idea of merit.

Speaker 8 Because it's not universally true, and it leads to victims of the oppressor, etc., etc.

Speaker 133 We want fairness.

Speaker 23 The way to make it fair is to take the money from.

Speaker 98 But the rest of the country adds something else in.

Speaker 114 They don't like people who are cheaters.

Speaker 123 They don't like to be cheated. They don't like to be ripped off.

Speaker 95 And so the right

Speaker 65 also focuses on merit.

Speaker 24 I don't want anybody to rip you off.

Speaker 115 So if you're getting something you don't deserve,

Speaker 28 I want it to go to the people who deserve it, the people who work hard.

Speaker 64 Hard work, code language for the left.

Speaker 10 They don't like that because that says oppressor victimhood again.

Speaker 85 So we have to change our language to be able to reach out to more people.

Speaker 87 We don't say merit.

Speaker 25 We don't say hard work.

Speaker 2 We say, karma.

Speaker 95 Now, I don't say karma because I don't believe in karma.

Speaker 30 I believe in merit and hard work.

Speaker 99 I believe

Speaker 121 justice happens at the end of life.

Speaker 121 But the left generally believes in karma.

Speaker 40 You get what you deserve.

Speaker 48 But they have never tied that to victimhood and to

Speaker 119 into

Speaker 119 justice

Speaker 46 and

Speaker 30 fairness.

Speaker 2 of

Speaker 83 victims.

Speaker 121 And so that's the piece that they're missing.

Speaker 64 And

Speaker 121 if we can change our language to be able to say,

Speaker 75 I understand what you're saying by fairness.

Speaker 40 And you're right.

Speaker 100 Not everybody can make it.

Speaker 98 And that small number, those are the ones that we can help out.

Speaker 135 We have to also look at karma

Speaker 114 and see that, yeah, there's a lot of people that get what they deserve.

Speaker 65 Both the big guys and the little guys.

Speaker 105 You want to be the karma for everyone else. You want to be the punish.

Speaker 68 I'll punish the rich because they deserve it.

Speaker 47 And I will reward the victim.

Speaker 43 But that's not worked out by us.

Speaker 114 Because that's not the way the regular people see it at this point.

Speaker 132 It's a very fascinating

Speaker 9 theory, and he is not interpreting it.

Speaker 88 The writer is not interpreting it the same way I am.

Speaker 9 He's left with no way out, no way out,

Speaker 28 because he just did the study to figure out why we're not talking to each other.

Speaker 67 But I'm convinced that once we know why we're not talking to each other,

Speaker 110 we can find our way back to each other because we're really not saying that much different.

Speaker 67 Generally speaking,

Speaker 23 I'm not talking about the extremes on either end.

Speaker 34 We're painting the house, the inside of the house.

Speaker 94 And

Speaker 88 so everything's coming off the walls, and everything's being put into the center of the rooms.

Speaker 46 And I want to take everything out of the house.

Speaker 2 This is the Glenn Beck program.

Speaker 2 Mercury.

Speaker 2 The Glenn Beck Program.

Speaker 134 888-727-BEC.

Speaker 42 So Glenn, when you're talking, you know, when we're talking about changing language for the left to try to bring them along for this ride and you use words like karma,

Speaker 42 How do we do that when, like, I don't relate to that word.

Speaker 39 We say things like merit, we say things like merit and hard work.

Speaker 22 Or if you're a progressive or you're from the left, you might look at that more as karma. You get what you deserve and then go on.

Speaker 75 You know who your audience is first, but then expand it and use the language of the left so they understand.

Speaker 92 Oh, I see what you're talking about.

Speaker 1 This is the Blaze Radio on demand.

Speaker 4 Some areas of the country were down to 60%

Speaker 11 in teenagers thinking that they need to get a driver's driver's license. The world is changing.

Speaker 4 The sands are shifting right underneath our feet and we don't even notice because we're all talking about politics.

Speaker 4 And we have to stop the train

Speaker 4 on the politics track today.

Speaker 4 Mika this morning on MSNBC says she has lost all hope. She had an open mind, but her mind is now closed.

Speaker 34 This is a failed president and a failed presidency.

Speaker 6 It's been a month, I know.

Speaker 51 And,

Speaker 2 well, that's not reasonable?

Speaker 2 No. Oh.
I'd say no.

Speaker 4 Call me crazy, but I'd say that.

Speaker 51 Well, we started warning.

Speaker 4 Remember, the Tea Party took off in about March.

Speaker 2 Was it that quick?

Speaker 6 Yeah, it was.

Speaker 4 It was the end of March. Oh, so never mind.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I mean,

Speaker 6 it was the same thing.

Speaker 67 They're following the same thing.

Speaker 6 Well, that's because they were already threatening health care.

Speaker 2 A complete overhaul of our health care system.

Speaker 39 Well, yeah, they had already knew it would be a disaster, and it has been.

Speaker 2 They would argue that we are threatening their little health care accomplishments the same way. Yeah.
True.

Speaker 36 But look, I mean, you have to see what he does, right?

Speaker 36 It has to be based on evidence.

Speaker 79 Well, that's what they said to us.

Speaker 4 But again,

Speaker 4 but again,

Speaker 4 she apparently was crying on the air today.

Speaker 4 And she said, just, this is really bad. It's not funny.
Just for the record, we're all really nervous.

Speaker 4 So if people feel nervous too, we do too. We don't think this is funny.
We're at a low point of American history. And I don't know how anyone can defend this president, even if it's their job.

Speaker 4 Wow, I want to play something for you that sounds very reminiscent

Speaker 2 right now.

Speaker 2 I will make a stand, I will raise my voice, I will hold your hand. Cause we are one,

Speaker 2 I will beat my drum.

Speaker 2 I have made my choice, we will overcome, cause we are one.

Speaker 2 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck program.

Speaker 4 All right, so Mika comes out and she was crying today. And she said, this isn't funny.

Speaker 9 What's going on is very, very serious.

Speaker 66 And all of us are nervous here.

Speaker 10 And if you're nervous as well,

Speaker 24 you know, then you know what we're feeling.

Speaker 38 You're not alone.

Speaker 97 As I read those words, I thought to myself, wow.

Speaker 86 So three months in,

Speaker 8 she is having a meltdown where she is crying on the air because it's serious.

Speaker 67 Now, let me show you when this happened to someone else.

Speaker 8 And the only audio I could find of it

Speaker 83 has the mocking behind it that you will hear.

Speaker 35 But see if you recognize this.

Speaker 2 I'm sorry.

Speaker 67 I just love my country.

Speaker 78 They're coming to take me away.

Speaker 2 They're coming to take me away. Ho ho, hee hee.
haha, to the funny farm where life is beautiful. Anybody remember?

Speaker 2 Sure do.

Speaker 2 Remember it well.

Speaker 30 So that was my 9-12 broadcast or 9-year 9-12 broadcast.

Speaker 2 You were worried for the country.

Speaker 42 And you got emotional.

Speaker 133 I started and I said, look, I'm just worried for my country.

Speaker 28 And they still play that today.

Speaker 40 They still play that today.

Speaker 94 Oh, yeah. And

Speaker 9 that clip is Glenn Beck is unhinged.

Speaker 2 Okay?

Speaker 2 Right?

Speaker 42 And it's been seen a few times on YouTube.

Speaker 32 Yeah.

Speaker 84 So it was, and there's lots of other clips that that one is along with, but

Speaker 113 it's amazing, isn't it?

Speaker 2 It's amazing. It's brutal.
Okay, so it's brutal.

Speaker 5 Now,

Speaker 24 am I going to treat Mika the way Mika treated me?

Speaker 2 You're not, but me, Stu, Jeffy are. Yeah,

Speaker 2 we most definitely are.

Speaker 2 So what yeah, I know.

Speaker 142 So wait, so what happens? What happens, besides us feeling really good, what happens?

Speaker 42 What happens? We make a really good point.

Speaker 29 We make a really good point.

Speaker 39 You guys are hypocrites. Right.

Speaker 42 Right. And then I just bask in that all day.
Right. And I think, right, we nailed it.

Speaker 9 And how does that change anything?

Speaker 2 It doesn't.

Speaker 2 Because that's what they were doing.

Speaker 72 They were like, you didn't care about you didn't care about

Speaker 12 Medicare,

Speaker 26 prescription drugs.

Speaker 42 Except we did.

Speaker 9 Some of us did.

Speaker 107 Not all of us did, but some of us did.

Speaker 11 They can make that case again.

Speaker 18 We're about to do all kinds of wonderful things to Obamacare and just slap our name on it and be fine with it, thanks to Paul Ryan.

Speaker 72 So

Speaker 28 they can look at us and say, you were hypocrites back then, and they did.

Speaker 121 And they didn't take us seriously that we were.

Speaker 128 Instead, they mocked us and ridiculed.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 26 what happens if you short-circuit the system and you reach out to mika and say mika

Speaker 99 i understand i understand i understand exactly how you feel i've been there remember you guys mocked me right and i don't want to mock you

Speaker 64 i want to say that's exactly how many of us felt And the reason why we're in the situation we're in is because we were were mocked and ridiculed.

Speaker 23 I don't want to mock and ridicule you because I don't want to make the situation worse.

Speaker 2 Can you see the error of what you did?

Speaker 28 Because I can see the errors of the things I did.

Speaker 114 Can you see the error of what you did?

Speaker 98 And now is there a way to come together?

Speaker 34 We may not agree on the president.

Speaker 68 We may not agree on policies, but a way to ratchet this down and stand on principles.

Speaker 21 What are the principles that you're afraid of?

Speaker 34 I'm guessing when it comes to health care, I can't help you on that.

Speaker 11 But she had this rant because she's afraid of

Speaker 2 the alt-right. Well, so am I.

Speaker 22 She's afraid of

Speaker 71 some of Steve Bannon's

Speaker 103 tendency.

Speaker 38 So am I.

Speaker 25 She is afraid of the wiretapping.

Speaker 38 So am I.

Speaker 121 She's afraid of people just saying things that aren't true.

Speaker 13 So am I.

Speaker 117 Welcome to that party, by the way.

Speaker 27 So am I.

Speaker 95 Now, where can we connect to try to diffuse?

Speaker 64 Because if we don't diffuse it, if we do to them what they did to us,

Speaker 29 We put them in the position four or eight years later where they're so mad, they'll find someone else who can put us in our place.

Speaker 53 Because honestly, that's what I heard from a lot of people.

Speaker 121 He's just going to make this stop.

Speaker 22 He's not afraid of the press.

Speaker 102 They won't beat him.

Speaker 2 Well, that was our problem with Barack Obama.

Speaker 24 Nobody could beat him.

Speaker 26 Nobody could hold his feet to the fire.

Speaker 2 Well,

Speaker 43 we know that Donald Trump has done some things that no other politician could have ever survived.

Speaker 8 Doesn't seem like anyone can hold his feet to the fire.

Speaker 81 They will find someone that will do that.

Speaker 121 So the pendulum swings back the other way.

Speaker 121 I would like it to swing back softer, quite honestly.

Speaker 23 I'd like for when they come in charge, it's not so vitriolic.

Speaker 119 What do you say?

Speaker 64 And it will be up to us to do it.

Speaker 121 Pat has the Mika stuff?

Speaker 42 Yeah, here's the clip this morning.

Speaker 145 Because this is not funny. This is really bad.

Speaker 145 Just for the record, we're all really nervous. So if people out there feel nervous, we do too.
We don't think this is funny.

Speaker 42 That is phenomenal.

Speaker 107 That is...

Speaker 42 So ironic. It is.
There's almost not words to express the irony there, the hypocrisy there.

Speaker 36 I, wow, are you listening to yourself?

Speaker 37 No self-awareness either. No self-awareness.

Speaker 52 Wow.

Speaker 104 It is so funny because I see this.

Speaker 28 I see this totally different.

Speaker 88 And maybe because it happened to me.

Speaker 137 Everybody else, you watched that play out

Speaker 94 on me. Yeah.

Speaker 34 I'm the one it played out on.

Speaker 2 You know what I mean? Different perspectives.

Speaker 16 I have a different perspective.

Speaker 75 I'm unique on all of those jokes and all of the tearing down of me

Speaker 9 because it was me

Speaker 5 I have such compassion for Mika

Speaker 9 because I know what people are going to say

Speaker 87 and when you say

Speaker 42 I don't I don't know that they will I mean, if anybody's going to do it, it's left with us.

Speaker 37 You think the left will mock?

Speaker 85 I mean, I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, not the left.

Speaker 2 The right will. Maybe.
The right will. The left will leave alone.
Maybe some.

Speaker 102 The right left me alone.

Speaker 42 yeah well for the most part yeah

Speaker 2 for the most part i mean there will be some that will attempt to make you not so new unique after today

Speaker 28 but it is

Speaker 65 yes blindness to themselves yeah but i think an opportunity to show the blindness i think an opportunity that it if if it is done the right way

Speaker 131 you say thank goodness Mika, you're here.

Speaker 137 Now you understand why we said you can't give the president this much power.

Speaker 45 You're here.

Speaker 11 Why we said you have got to abide by the Constitution.

Speaker 121 And we were afraid just like you are. And you may dismiss

Speaker 64 my fears.

Speaker 120 And I could dismiss your fears, but let's not dismiss each other's feelings and the way to solve those feelings.

Speaker 80 Those are real.

Speaker 130 Your fears, I could look at them and say, well, that's not going to happen.

Speaker 97 That's not going to happen. That's not going to happen.
Just like you looked at mine and said, that's not going to happen.

Speaker 73 Forget the logic of it.

Speaker 122 Let's talk about the feelings of it because that's what the left likes to talk about.

Speaker 87 Let's talk about the feelings of it.

Speaker 8 The only thing that will make those feelings go away.

Speaker 48 is a return to the constitutional principles.

Speaker 26 That's it.

Speaker 20 That's it.

Speaker 63 You have Mike Pence in.

Speaker 25 You impeach this guy.

Speaker 20 You You got Mike Pence.

Speaker 70 I guarantee you're going to have a problem with Mike Pence too.

Speaker 130 Might not be the same fears, but you're not going to like him all that much.

Speaker 36 I bet you dislike him a lot more on policy.

Speaker 2 I bet you would.

Speaker 123 I bet you would.

Speaker 8 So the way to make those fears go away is to return to the Constitution.

Speaker 119 And that's an easy case to make.

Speaker 121 Instead of...

Speaker 9 hypocrisy, no self-awareness, which we all know.

Speaker 64 We don't have to say, you imagine if somebody would have done that on the right, I did it.

Speaker 36 Well, and this is the thing. We constantly look back at these moments of hypocrisy, which happen all the time, and say, do you believe the left?

Speaker 36 They were on this side of it last time, and they're on the opposite side this time. And that's a legitimate observation to make, and it's obviously part of talk radio's job to make it.

Speaker 36 However, what's typically ignored out of that equation is, well, the right was on one side of it back then and is now on the opposite side of it too. Now,

Speaker 36 the point is, if you have principle and it's what you're saying here, you have a chance to be on the right side of it both times.

Speaker 30 Yeah.

Speaker 65 Now, I don't know if Mika is the kind of person that wants to be on the constitutionally principled side.

Speaker 42 Well, she mentioned the Constitution for one of the few times I can ever remember hearing her mention it in the context of this discussion. She actually mentioned the Constitution.
We'll get there.

Speaker 49 Because the Constitution. Absolutely.

Speaker 63 She got there.

Speaker 34 But you know what?

Speaker 95 How many times are you hearing the Constitution used by the right now?

Speaker 2 It was our mantra. Yep.

Speaker 113 But this is... Constitution, Constitution.

Speaker 59 It's not Constitution, Constitution now.

Speaker 2 No, no, it's not. Get it done.

Speaker 36 And this is the important part, I think, your point you're making on multiple different issues today.

Speaker 36 Locking in a win on the argument is meaningless because later on,

Speaker 36 both sides are going to switch again, and everyone's going to violate what they said earlier. It happens all the time.

Speaker 36 It's something to notice, but not to focus on.

Speaker 36 If you had principled people who can say, hey,

Speaker 8 you know what, left?

Speaker 36 We agree that the government is too powerful, that the federal, that the executive branch is too powerful.

Speaker 36 You have a chance to lock that in with their essentially BS agreement with you that is brand new and is not about principle. But you have a chance.

Speaker 36 If you have enough people who say, you know what, for next time, I want this. I want to lock this lack of power in.
You have a chance to shrink shrink these things now when they hate Donald Trump.

Speaker 36 It might not be legitimate at all. They're concerns about Donald Trump, but we all agree as conservatives that we want the federal government to be less powerful no matter who is president.

Speaker 36 So take that opportunity now.

Speaker 64 The progressives in the Republican Party do not.

Speaker 30 I agree.

Speaker 71 And that's why our argument with Congress should remain the same.

Speaker 54 You have Rand Paul, Mike Lee, Ted Cruz all saying, you've got to scrap Obamacare and start from the beginning.

Speaker 72 Now, Now, that's what we all agreed to. That's what we all agreed to.

Speaker 36 It was passed in the House and the Senate.

Speaker 57 Passed in the House and the Senate.

Speaker 8 Couldn't be passed under,

Speaker 107 couldn't be signed by Barack Obama.

Speaker 36 When they knew

Speaker 36 they couldn't do it, they passed it. And now that they have a chance to do it, they're all hemming and hauling.

Speaker 2 It's incredible.

Speaker 2 What's the problem?

Speaker 39 What's the problem here?

Speaker 42 It's always the same game with Barack Obama.

Speaker 113 It's always the same game.

Speaker 65 But it's the same game, obviously, with the Democrats, because look at where they are.

Speaker 30 They should be for many of the things Barack Obama is, or I mean, Donald Trump is doing.

Speaker 95 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 64 They should be for.

Speaker 62 You kidding me?

Speaker 39 You should go in and help him pass health care because it's going to include daycare and everything else.

Speaker 36 Or the infrastructure spending. I mean, a trillion dollars.
A trillion dollars.

Speaker 20 That's more than Obama could get through. It's a dream for them.

Speaker 36 And I'm surprised they're not seeing that.

Speaker 9 I'm glad they're not seeing that.

Speaker 36 It shows it's, I am too, but it shows that it's about tribes. It's about teams.
And, you know, the Yankees aren't going to root for the Red Sox no matter what the Red Sox.

Speaker 123 I mean, could be wrong, maybe giving them too much credit.

Speaker 67 I think they actually do see that, but they don't think that they can make, they want to make more money for election time.

Speaker 9 And being for Donald Trump and these things, they can't have somebody else's team score.

Speaker 95 Because I don't think their fans

Speaker 9 understand

Speaker 9 the score of another team.

Speaker 36 I think that's the same point. They see the teams as as the election scorecard, and that's all.

Speaker 36 But again, like, I want to win elections to do things. Like, I don't want to win elections just to say I won elections.
Who the hell cares about that?

Speaker 42 I do, because one would mean there's an R, and the other one would be a D, and I like R better.

Speaker 2 Oh, okay. Well, that's a good point.

Speaker 2 You guys haven't

Speaker 42 considered that. R is way better than D.
Way better. It's way further down in the alphabet.

Speaker 26 It's more mature.

Speaker 42 I mean, it's just, it's a bigger letter, really, than D. It's got more to it.

Speaker 26 Well, D,

Speaker 42 it's more fun to say.

Speaker 37 What's better to say?

Speaker 2 R or D?

Speaker 42 D sounds nasty.

Speaker 9 And D sounds bad because you got those bad grades in school.

Speaker 35 There were D's.

Speaker 2 Thanks.

Speaker 2 Did you ever have an R on your head? I never had a card. No.
That would be really good.

Speaker 2 No bad D.

Speaker 2 D's are bad.

Speaker 8 Now, this: Simply Safe has one of the most talked-about innovations to keep your home and family safe.

Speaker 56 It's their new security camera.

Speaker 65 The camera connects to sensors in your alarm system, which is

Speaker 107 fantastic because if somebody moves, somebody opens a window, glass breaks or something, the camera turns on.

Speaker 2 Were you the one that read all up about this, Stu?

Speaker 63 And it has the lens cap on.

Speaker 36 Yeah, it has a lens cap on it, which is kind of cool.

Speaker 36 Because a lot of people worry about having cameras in their house on all the time, who can hack into them or whatever.

Speaker 36 Obviously, they have a lot of security to stop that anyway, but they also have a physical shield over the camera. So unless it's motion activated,

Speaker 36 it's not going to be peering into your home.

Speaker 93 And not motion-activated activated like you walked in, but glass breaked or

Speaker 136 glass was broken or a window.

Speaker 42 It gives you less footage to have to go through if something does go wrong and you have to watch the footage, which I love because I've had to go through hours and hours and hours and hours of footage wondering what happened and when.

Speaker 14 When did this happen in your life?

Speaker 46 I didn't know.

Speaker 34 Did you have somebody break into your house?

Speaker 42 Well, we thought so. And so we've

Speaker 138 about a year ago?

Speaker 94 Yeah. Yeah.
And you were wrong?

Speaker 4 Like you were this morning.

Speaker 69 Anyway.

Speaker 2 good thing you were the better man on that. You know,

Speaker 130 simply safe, brilliant technology that will protect your home.

Speaker 24 It automatically records, sends the video to your phone, sends it to the police so they know exactly who they're looking for.

Speaker 139 The Glenn Glenn Beck Beck Program.

Speaker 144 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

Speaker 2 The Glenn Beck Program.

Speaker 2 Mercury.

Speaker 2 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

Speaker 132 Hello, you sick twisted freak.

Speaker 10 You guys are obsessed with Alex Jones.

Speaker 36 I mean,

Speaker 36 he's probably the funniest thing in our society.

Speaker 67 I mean, that's, think about that as a statement.

Speaker 36 It's a major one. It's a big one.
He's the thing that probably makes me laugh harder than anything in our society.

Speaker 110 People are calling him an advisor to the president.

Speaker 113 He's not, right?

Speaker 49 I mean, according to him, he

Speaker 36 talks to him often. I mean, and we know for a fact they've talked.
We just don't know how often they talk.

Speaker 75 According to Jones, they talk all the time.

Speaker 42 So officially, no, he's not

Speaker 36 certainly not an official advisor.

Speaker 31 Right.

Speaker 36 Although, you know, for example, Roger Stone, who was an advisor for Trump for a long time, and everyone obviously knows that they still have a close relationship, is, my understanding, the fill-in host for Alex Jones.

Speaker 36 I've never actually heard him do the show, but I read that in an article recently.

Speaker 36 He's the fill-in host. He's like, that's how close they are.
He's on the show all the time. Wow.
And is the fill-in host for Alex Jones. And he's obviously a close advisor to the president.

Speaker 36 They make really no secret about that,

Speaker 36 though they have an official distance at some point.

Speaker 52 Wow, wow, wow, wow.

Speaker 36 So, anyway, uh, he,

Speaker 79 I guess it was Weiss that noticed something interesting about Alex Jones.

Speaker 2 That's a good

Speaker 2 making me laugh.

Speaker 4 Weiss noticed an interesting pattern with Alex Jones, and uh,

Speaker 4 the patterns do have been frothing at the mouth since the beginning of the show to be able to play it back.

Speaker 4 Uh, so we'll go there next.

Speaker 2 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

Speaker 139 Mercury.

Speaker 139 The Glen Beck Program.

Speaker 141 We're just talking about spending.

Speaker 23 And you can't, we're going to get the Alex Jones thing here in a second.

Speaker 95 You can't cut spending now because we've stopped,

Speaker 96 we've turned off the spigots at the Federal Reserve.

Speaker 84 So the Federal Reserve's not making cheap money.

Speaker 103 So you have to replace it with something.

Speaker 23 And if you don't want quantitative easing, then you have to spend.

Speaker 110 That's why the president is going to spend on the stimulus package and everything else.

Speaker 51 This is a deal that is born in economics with the Federal Reserve.

Speaker 63 You have to have a stimulus.

Speaker 34 You don't want quantitative easing, good.

Speaker 27 Then spend it elsewhere, but you have to spend the money.

Speaker 36 And you're talking about replacing it with something also on the Obamacare front.

Speaker 36 Mulvaney, who is one of Trump's best appointments. I mean, it's an excellent appointment.

Speaker 36 He was on today on Hugh Hewitt's radio show talking about whether they were going to vote to repeal Obamacare and pretty much explicitly said the reason they will not just repeal it.

Speaker 36 The president does not want it repealed. He wants it repealed and replaced only.
So they will not vote on repealing it, at least not now. You never know.

Speaker 31 That could change.

Speaker 121 He said, I mean, that's consistent with what he said.

Speaker 36 Yeah, he was out front with us. Yeah,

Speaker 65 there's nothing, nothing against Donald Trump.

Speaker 22 Anybody who is disappointed by that, I mean, he told you what he was going to do.

Speaker 132 People just didn't believe him, but he said that's what he was going to do.

Speaker 36 He was up front about the healthcare stuff. And I think, you know, and that's not, it's not necessarily bad.
Obviously, if the replacement is a big improvement of

Speaker 36 Obamacare or does something much better and helps people, that's fine. The question is, can you get that done in time?

Speaker 36 Because as we get closer and closer to next year, there's going to be a lot of excuses out there, and it's going to be hard to get done. I'd rather get it repealed and then have the pressure being on

Speaker 36 approving parts of these things, or not parts of Obamacare necessarily, but things that are positive for healthcare, get those done, and it'll be an accomplishment to tout during the actual re-election campaign for all these guys.

Speaker 36 Instead, they want to make it

Speaker 36 the repeal out of the way now.

Speaker 28 They're going to say that it's going to be too close to the election to do anything.

Speaker 9 That's coming soon.

Speaker 123 Ben in Missouri, you're on the Glenn Beck program.

Speaker 2 Hey, how's it going, Glenn? How are you? Good. How are you?

Speaker 146 Wonderful. Hey,

Speaker 146 I love your show, and I usually agree with you, but I think you're actually missing a point of you

Speaker 146 talk of

Speaker 146 if we meet up with the left and explain shared values and principles.

Speaker 34 Okay, hang on just a second. Hang on just a second.

Speaker 8 I want to make sure you understand.

Speaker 23 I'm not talking about the extremes of left or right.

Speaker 63 I'm talking about your common sense Democrats, and I'm not even talking about the people in Washington, D.C.

Speaker 11 I'm talking about can we find reasonable people on the left and the right?

Speaker 2 Are there any reasonable people left?

Speaker 28 Do you consider yourself reasonable?

Speaker 146 I do, except you would

Speaker 146 probably view me as

Speaker 146 a very far right.

Speaker 43 Oh, why would you say that?

Speaker 146 Because I am actually based in principles of taxation and and um

Speaker 146 and freedom and freedom where the left are

Speaker 146 they aren't looking at how you reach a goal they're looking at how you get to the goal no matter what and where you and i

Speaker 146 we

Speaker 146 we look at how we reach a goal ethically yeah they look at how you reach a goal.

Speaker 113 So I don't think, I doubt, Ben, I don't know all of your policies, but if that was your blanket statement of why I would disagree with you, I don't disagree with you

Speaker 2 at all.

Speaker 12 I am all freedom.

Speaker 9 I am all for the laws and the Constitution.

Speaker 60 We were just having a conversation off air that if I were president of the United States, I would go on television, my first cast, and I'd say, you must limit my power.

Speaker 66 You must limit my power.

Speaker 60 And you must limit the power of the Supreme Court and the power of the Constitution.

Speaker 108 Period.

Speaker 36 Power of the Constitution.

Speaker 60 I mean, a power of the Congress. Okay.

Speaker 8 Congress and the power of the Supreme Court and the presidency.

Speaker 36 Get us out of your lives.

Speaker 53 Get us out of your life.

Speaker 85 And you have the opportunity right now.

Speaker 30 Put that bill on my desk and I will sign it.

Speaker 37 You imagine how popular that would be.

Speaker 41 Oh, my God.

Speaker 2 I don't know. You propose that in term limits?

Speaker 18 I'm not sure.

Speaker 113 I'm not sure.

Speaker 32 I think it'd be.

Speaker 2 Yeah, the people it would be.

Speaker 36 And we know term limits is, you know, 80% type approval rating stuff. That's not just left and right or one side or the other.

Speaker 2 It's all everybody.

Speaker 36 Everybody supports that. Again, I know there's some people, oh, well, term limits are elections.
I got it. I got your arguments.
I've heard them and considered them. The point is that

Speaker 36 talking about just politically,

Speaker 36 it's an overwhelmingly popular thing to say, I mean, why do we remember George Washington so positively? Many reasons, but one of it is he limited his own power.

Speaker 36 He had the chance to get more power, and he said, you know what, I don't want it. And we look back at him as an American hero partially because of that.

Speaker 10 And it's going to take a new Washington to be able to do that.

Speaker 18 Ben, I thank you very much for your phone call.

Speaker 42 The second thing you might do as president is to mandate that all radio shows must play at least one clip of Alex Jones per day.

Speaker 92 Right. Just one.

Speaker 128 Just one.

Speaker 42 Just one.

Speaker 79 Well, at least one.

Speaker 2 Yeah. You can't.

Speaker 42 More if you want, but at least one.

Speaker 71 So this is a theory that Weiss was working on, that he's really not sorry when he says, I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 What?

Speaker 131 And they took all of his explosions, which happened quite frequently, and they found a pattern.

Speaker 63 Listen.

Speaker 2 We're going to beat your ass. You just get that through your stinking traitorous heads.

Speaker 2 Excuse me, I apologize. I don't have a lot of Christian affiliates.
I am a Christian, but I will stomp your head in if you start a fight with me, you thug scum.

Speaker 2 Anyways, excuse me, ladies and gentlemen. Bunch of cowards.

Speaker 2 Excuse me.

Speaker 148 I'm going to control myself right now.

Speaker 2 She is a demon damn to hell.

Speaker 2 Excuse me. I've been trying to control myself, trying to be professional about this.
But at a certain point, I just am just really getting pissed. Excuse me.

Speaker 2 We're not going to have Pepsi with baby flavoring in it. I mean, what the hell have we become? Excuse me.

Speaker 2 I didn't have a liberal from New York in the bathroom. I couldn't wipe my ass.
Excuse me.

Speaker 2 There's more.

Speaker 2 Have you seen this baby flavoring?

Speaker 2 Baby-flavored peps.

Speaker 2 We're not going to have it. He's,

Speaker 64 doesn't that go to the Bohemian Grove thing that the elites are eating babies?

Speaker 61 I'm not sure.

Speaker 42 Gold-plated babies, right?

Speaker 2 I'm not sure.

Speaker 12 I wasn't there long enough for the gold-plating of the babies.

Speaker 36 Because I think you'd want to flavor. If you're going to consume a baby, you want to flavor it in another way, right?

Speaker 2 I'm not sure

Speaker 2 if it's the flavor I'm looking for.

Speaker 36 But that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 76 But I guess, again, if it cuts down on the taste of baby, right?

Speaker 36 Like, you want to go, you, I could understand Pepsi-flavored babies. I can't understand baby-flavored Pepsi.
Pepsi is the better flavor.

Speaker 37 I would assume.

Speaker 36 I mean, I've never eaten a child. So

Speaker 2 you should shut up. Thank you.

Speaker 2 Until you meet your child.

Speaker 2 Or in this case,

Speaker 76 drunk a child.

Speaker 2 I don't want to hear about it. You don't want to hear about it.

Speaker 2 I mean,

Speaker 42 is there any doubt he's seriously disturbed and needs help?

Speaker 36 I don't know. Is there any more clips? Maybe we can prove it.

Speaker 42 I don't know. You know, that's a good point.

Speaker 42 There might be some more of it.

Speaker 2 I don't like them putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggin' frogs gay.

Speaker 2 Serious crap.

Speaker 2 I'm in control now.

Speaker 2 Ridiculous. Sick.

Speaker 2 Scum.

Speaker 2 Filth.

Speaker 2 It's over for the globalist. Rease with the conditioning Now

Speaker 36 there's a legitimate TV.

Speaker 2 There was another one of the examples.

Speaker 42 But this is one of our new favorites.

Speaker 148 It's like some type of interdimensional blight or succubus has like attached itself

Speaker 148 to people. And it's like either they're demon-possessed or they aren't.
Right.

Speaker 32 Right. Obviously.

Speaker 148 And that's what it is. It's what it is.
I've talked to a lot of top psychologists, a lot of top PhDs, or even atheists, and they said, listen,

Speaker 148 you study enough, you look enough, enough, you get into situations enough, you'll run into people that are clearly possessed and who even know information about you.

Speaker 148 You've never told them, and they're not guessing.

Speaker 42 Something else is coming through them.

Speaker 42 Something else is coming through them. Something.

Speaker 2 I'm not sure what it is, but something is trying to suck your bush or something.

Speaker 64 I've really tried to say.

Speaker 105 What the context of that?

Speaker 124 How could there's no context?

Speaker 2 None of these things work.

Speaker 36 It's so weird.

Speaker 46 Even in context.

Speaker 42 No, they really don't.

Speaker 148 And folks, that's what this is. I don't care.
The media makes fun of me. I don't care what they say.
No one ever cared.

Speaker 5 I'm telling you, folks, I look out at the crowds.

Speaker 148 I see the people. They are possessed by something.
I don't know what it is.

Speaker 2 Most of the planet.

Speaker 49 Why do you guys mock that?

Speaker 34 Are you telling me he doesn't look out into his crowd and see a group of possessed people?

Speaker 2 That's a good point.

Speaker 36 Do you know the actual conspiracy theory that exists that

Speaker 36 speculates that he is actually Bill Hicks, the comedian that...

Speaker 36 So Bill Hicks is a comedian who was on the opposite side of all these issues and died at 32 because of cancer. And the theory is that, and they look similar.
Like they look like...

Speaker 36 I mean, it looks like an older Alex Jones could be Bill Hicks today. And the theory is that Bill Hicks faked his own death, I believe, if I'm understanding the theory right.
Faked his own death.

Speaker 36 And has come back to mock the world as Alex Jones.

Speaker 2 So none of this is real.

Speaker 4 This is an Andy Kaufman.

Speaker 2 Andy Kaufman level.

Speaker 36 And it would be the greatest bit of all time.

Speaker 29 What did Bill Hicks sound like?

Speaker 23 I don't know. Go see if you can find a clip of Bill Hicks.

Speaker 95 We'll come back here in a second.

Speaker 56 We are told the digital economy would only be positive for us.

Speaker 69 Some tripwires on that one.

Speaker 14 Number one,

Speaker 107 privacy.

Speaker 121 Cashless transactions would always include some middleman, a third party.

Speaker 57 If you have a national bank,

Speaker 39 a true national bank, the Federal Reserve is now the bank.

Speaker 55 Can they track everything?

Speaker 39 Somebody is going to track absolutely everywhere you go, everything you do.

Speaker 59 Government has increased access to personal transactions and records.

Speaker 27 Certain types of transactions, like gambling, could be barred or frozen by government.

Speaker 95 This is what we're talking about when we're talking about the

Speaker 64 cashless or digital society.

Speaker 63 And it's coming.

Speaker 135 I told you today,

Speaker 59 we're now down in the 60s of number of teenagers that want to drive a car, that are going to get their driver's license.

Speaker 111 They say, why would I waste all that time learning to drive?

Speaker 14 I'm not going to need it.

Speaker 85 I can call Uber and

Speaker 111 beyond that, Tesla is coming out and all the cars will be this way, that you'll be able to rent your car out.

Speaker 95 I won't need to buy a car.

Speaker 95 Somebody's going to have a Tesla around me, and I can call for that Tesla when they're at work.

Speaker 26 This is the new generation thinks differently.

Speaker 68 They don't like cash.

Speaker 49 So this is bound to happen.

Speaker 8 I want you to call Goldline today and ask for their updated free cashless society risk report.

Speaker 23 Read their important risk information and find out if buying gold or silver is right for you.

Speaker 96 Again, call Goldline, get the report 866-465-3546.

Speaker 10 That's 866 Goldline.

Speaker 63 866 Goldline or Goldline.com.

Speaker 2 You're listening to the Glenbeck program.

Speaker 139 This is the Glen Beck program. And

Speaker 2 to feel what the children are feeling.

Speaker 2 Folks, we got it. We got income people to stand up against these people.

Speaker 2 That's right.

Speaker 101 So funny.

Speaker 2 That is unreal.

Speaker 42 That is one of the greatest moments in the history of broadcast of any kind.

Speaker 36 Internet, radio, television, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 42 One of the greatest moments in all of broadcast history.

Speaker 51 Just got a note in from Aaron Watson.

Speaker 47 I want to share the numbers with you.

Speaker 125 Aaron Watson is a country artist.

Speaker 37 Was it last week we had him on? Yep.

Speaker 28 He said it was a huge week.

Speaker 47 Record sales over the last two years overall in the industry were down 44% for major labels.

Speaker 41 Our sales are up year to year over 48%.

Speaker 2 Good.

Speaker 30 We were the number one selling album in

Speaker 39 America last week.

Speaker 64 However, the charts now figure in streaming.

Speaker 72 Oh, no.

Speaker 34 And because they don't get airplay on streaming,

Speaker 2 they were number two on the charts. Oh, my God.

Speaker 95 Number two, top country album.

Speaker 60 Number 10, Billboard Top 200.

Speaker 30 Number one, independent album, all genres.

Speaker 42 But number one, also in sales?

Speaker 51 Number one in sales.

Speaker 64 Number two, digital album.

Speaker 2 Wow.

Speaker 95 Number seven, top internet album.

Speaker 73 Number three, albums by Strata.

Speaker 113 I don't know what that is.

Speaker 110 And catalog sales, number four, The Underdog, a great CD of theirs, up 532%.

Speaker 129 So he wrote and he said, please tell your listeners how grateful I am for their love and support.

Speaker 83 The hundreds of kind comments that they left me on social media has left me absolutely speechless.

Speaker 85 Tell them that I love them.

Speaker 60 Also, please tell that Pat, tell Pat that Vaquero has

Speaker 95 an even better chance at charting number one this week, so he isn't off the hook yet.

Speaker 22 Horses and Divorces is going to be recorded and all the proceeds will go to charity.

Speaker 113 That's great.

Speaker 2 It's going to be awesome.

Speaker 94 I don't remember you.

Speaker 2 I remember the whole charity party.

Speaker 42 I didn't sign off.

Speaker 39 I think he's actually working on a song called Horses and Divorces.

Speaker 2 I I have a few of you.

Speaker 42 He said that will be the name of our song, Horses and Divorces.

Speaker 64 You need to say to him, who are you?

Speaker 2 Who are you to tell me?

Speaker 2 To dictate to me. He's already dictating to charity.

Speaker 2 Right.

Speaker 64 Wow. He would have listened to you.

Speaker 51 He would have been number one on all the charts.

Speaker 36 There's no question about it. No question.
Well, it's easy for Aaron Watson with his number one CDs to tell you, hey, we're going to donate it all to charity.

Speaker 36 But, I mean, you know, Pat, Pat's got the, you know, he's a struggling artist.

Speaker 79 Right.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 42 He's a big transition with six mouths to feed.

Speaker 13 Right. Okay.
Well, none of them are in the house.

Speaker 2 None of them. Well, one of them is still in the house.

Speaker 42 And more are coming back.

Speaker 2 All the time. And they're coming back with more.

Speaker 2 With more.

Speaker 2 That's not right. That is not right.

Speaker 94 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah. So congratulations, Aaron Watson.

Speaker 42 Yeah, that's really great that he's. I mean, that's pretty spectacular for an independent artist who has no record company.
If you don't understand what

Speaker 42 the big deal the record company is, they're the ones who call the radio stations and make sure you put the record on.

Speaker 42 They're the ones who distribute this to the record stores so that the record stores display it and sell it. I mean,

Speaker 42 it's hugely important. For him to be doing this on his own, it's unbelievable.

Speaker 2 It's really unbelievable.

Speaker 125 Ultimate disruptor in music right now.

Speaker 14 Definitely.

Speaker 34 And I absolutely love it.

Speaker 23 And he's one of the kindest guys.

Speaker 4 He's Michael Boublet of Country Music. Yeah, he's a good guy.
Really good guy. Really good guy.

Speaker 4 Vaccaro is the name of the CD. If you like country music, you're going to love this.
And Pat hates country music and he really likes it.

Speaker 92 Yeah.

Speaker 39 Vaccaro on the charts now.

Speaker 2 This is the Glenn Beck program,

Speaker 139 Mercury.
