Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, it's Pat Gray and Jeff Fisher for Glenn today. Coming up on the podcast, we discussed, of course, the shooting in New Zealand, the horrific killing of 49 Muslims in two different mosques. And just the psychosis of the person involved here is unbelievable, absolutely amazing. And so tragic. We also talked about, we've got an update for you on Aunt Becky. She's out. She's free. She's walking the streets.
Starting point is 00:00:31 Be careful, please. Please, Aunt Becky, made bail in the varsity blue scandal. And she's out there somewhere. So I just thought, I want you to have to run into her and her crime spree. And she could be here or British Columbia. Fortunately, though, she's been fired from the Hallmark job. We'll get into that. Is it fortunate?
Starting point is 00:00:52 Fortunately, yeah, because you don't want to have to look at her anymore. Another fortunate thing is we talked a little bit about the exciting, exciting president. presidential run that Beto O'Rourke he was bringing to the table. Can't wait. Man, he's so fantastic. Also, speaking of Beto and his climate change stuff, kids agree with him that climate change is catastrophic. And so they're walking out of school today.
Starting point is 00:01:16 A big strike from the children of America. And a big mob boss was just recently killed in New York City. In his driveway. And Jeff, he has the details on that. All coming up today in the past. podcast. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. I love Patriot Mobile.
Starting point is 00:01:47 Here's the thing. Cell service, almost all of it is exactly the same because everybody's using the same cell towers. And what these companies do is they get their own customers and they charge all kinds of really high prices. Then they sell time on that tower to other companies and they charge really, really the low basic rate. Now, you're denying those companies that own the low.
Starting point is 00:02:10 cell towers, the money, all that big fat profit to be able to go and donate to things like Planned Parenthood. So if you switch to another one that has the same coverage but is not giving that big fat profit, you hurt that, you know, big company, you also help the little company and you help your own causes because that little company is not giving all the money to Planned Parenthood. That's Patriot Mobile. They share your values. They know what you are,
Starting point is 00:02:43 what your hard-earned money is worth. And they'll give you the exact same coverage. It's PatriotMobil.com slash blaze. Patriotmobile.com slash blaze. Go sign up now. They make the transition really, really simple. Switch to Patriot Mobile now. With Pat Gray of Pat Gray Unleashed,
Starting point is 00:03:04 which immediately precedes this show. I also hear this morning, Jeffie from Chewing the Fat, that podcast, which is available wherever podcasts are sold for free, as is mine. Correct. Yes. And again, now, chewing the fat,
Starting point is 00:03:21 does that have anything to do with physique of the host? That's just the title of the show. Yeah, you're chewing the fat. It's like a conversation with me. Let's just go somewhere and chew the fat. Right. Yeah, yeah. All right. I just wanted to clear that up.
Starting point is 00:03:33 I'm reminded that the logo has a lot. my face on a side of beef. Again, that's just coincidence, right? There was nowhere else to put your logo, and they just had a side of beef handy. So they superimposed it there, which is interesting. All right, AAA 727 B-E-C-K. Glenn is, I think he's having a weekend with Tony Robbins or something. This is not going to end well.
Starting point is 00:04:00 I wouldn't think so. This is not going to add well. Last week I spent the weekend. with Stephen Covey. He visited me from beyond the grave. Really? Yeah. Yeah, we spent the weekend together.
Starting point is 00:04:13 So it's interesting now that Glenn's doing the same thing with Tony Robbins. Huh? Fascinating. Really horrific shooting in New Zealand. At least 49 people were killed in mass shootings at two mosques full of worshippers, attending Friday prayers, on what the prime minister called, one of New Zealand's darkest days. One man was arrested and charged with murder
Starting point is 00:04:39 in what appeared to be a carefully planned racist attack. He apparently freely and openly admits he's a racist and hates immigrants. And he said this was revenge for their invasion. Triple 8-7-27-B-E-C-K, the phone number to call, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the events in Christchurch, New Zealand represented an extraordinary and unprecedented act of violence. And many of the victims apparently might be migrants or refugees. She said it's clear that this can now only be described as a terrorist attack.
Starting point is 00:05:27 In addition to those who died, health officials said 48 people were being treated for gunshot. wounds. So 48 injured. Last I heard, it was 20. Injuries ranged from minor to critical. The guy talked about doing this. He bragged that he was going to do it. And then he live streamed it. Apparently, he rigged up a camera on a helmet and filmed the whole thing. It's really, really horrific. And don't forget about his great 87-page manifesto. Was it 87 pages?
Starting point is 00:06:03 just crazy. He's just nuts. Yeah. Yeah, he's just crazy. CNN is hard at work, even as we speak, trying to blame Donald Trump for the shooting. In a place where this doesn't happen, right? America is the only place we're told by the left all the time. This is the only place this ever happens. And then when it doesn't happen here, it's still the fault of the president. Because they can't blame the gun. Not in New Zealand. where guns are virtually banned. Not in Australia. He's from Australia, this murderer,
Starting point is 00:06:40 where guns were banned and confiscated. So you can't blame the gun. Because they've already done everything they can possibly do to rid their society of guns. So they've taken to blaming the president because everything's his fault. No matter what. Right.
Starting point is 00:07:00 No matter where it happens. And no matter what it is that happens. Read between the lines. It's a dog whistle. It's all his fault. By the way, again, I love. Dog whistles are whistles that only dogs can hear.
Starting point is 00:07:14 That's why they call them dog whistles, because they're at a frequency so high humans can't hear it. So. If you're using dog whistles, no human is hearing you. If it's a dog whistle code, that's fine because nobody heard it. It's kind of what we want. Except dogs, and they're not going to do anything about it. about it. You hope. Yeah. I feel pretty confident that the dogs aren't going to do anything about it.
Starting point is 00:07:40 So with the dogs hear the dog whistle racism, so what? If your dog is racist, oh well, I can't get to do about it. Keep them on a leash is what you got to do. Right. That's right. So it's just a crazy world. And it's amazing how every single time it's Donald Trump, every single time, it's, every single time, It's white people. I mean, it's so bad with that right now. We were actually blamed for white air pollution this week. Whites are polluting, I guess, minority neighborhoods, and then sneaking back really carefully to their beautiful suburban life
Starting point is 00:08:22 where it's clean, fresh air, country air that you breathe. And so you're not breathing the stuff you went and polluted in another neighborhood where the minorities live. I mean, I don't even know how that works. How does that work? I'm not quite sure I understand it myself. It's always white's fault. You know, the white privilege thing.
Starting point is 00:08:44 So if you've accomplished something, so what? You had white privilege and you were given all that stuff. No matter whether you worked for it or not, it was given to you. And there's white income inequality and there's white pollution and white people are just bad. So deal with that. Okay. It's just a crazy, crazy, crazy time. Deadliest attack occurred at the Al Nour Mosque in Central Christchurch at 1.45 in the afternoon, 145.
Starting point is 00:09:21 So in broad daylight, this guy went out and conducted this killing spree. So 41 people were apparently killed there. And then he drove across town and killed people at another mob. And he was taken into custody. So the guy is still alive. Unlike most of these psychos, he didn't kill himself at the end. And police didn't kill him either. So he's in custody now.
Starting point is 00:09:52 And no doubt we're going to have to hear a bunch of his rantings and ravings. I hope not. And his lunacy. I mean, I'm sure you're right, but I sure hope. he he also went after they're trying to present this as okay this guy is a right-wing guy but he attacked conservatives in his manifesto said your your time is gone conservatism is dead so he's got no love for conservatives and he also said he considers himself an environmentalist eco-fascist.
Starting point is 00:10:30 Huh. Fascist is the word? Yeah. And fascist, by the way. Fascism is not a product of the right either. Fascism is on the left. Fascism comes from big government, which people on the right don't want. So if he's a fascist and an environmentalist, that's not a product of the right either.
Starting point is 00:10:51 But that's how it will be spun is that this guy's right wing, he got all of his ideas from Donald Trump. And then he went and killed people in New Zealand. Christchurch is the largest city on New Zealand's South Island. And the city's been rebuilding since an earthquake in 2011, killed 185 people and destroyed many downtown buildings. So they've had their share of problems in New Zealand over this time period, too. Really sad. And our thoughts and prayers go out to the people of New Zealand,
Starting point is 00:11:27 which will be mocked, of course, by the left because thoughts and prayers do nothing. And apparently neither do gun bans. Right? So there's that. We've said it all along. You know, when you have the gun bans, it's the law-abiding citizens.
Starting point is 00:11:45 Who are without the guns. Yeah, exactly. And see, the criminals and the psychos always find a way, don't they? They always find a way. in fact in Great Britain where they also banned guns and confiscated guns and that happened in 96 or 97 and in the immediate aftermath of that the gun violence actually went up 300%
Starting point is 00:12:08 300% up and then it leveled off for a while then it went back up then it went back up and right now in the last couple of years it's been about the same as it was before the gun ban so it did nothing it didn't help the situation in fact what it did was encourage people to get knives and stab other people. So the bad people are still finding a way to do bad things in Great Britain. And it's gotten so bad with the knife attacks that one of the MPs in England, one of the members of parliament, is now proposing that they put GPS trackers into knife handles. Genius.
Starting point is 00:12:48 It's brilliant, right? First of all, there should also be a three-day waiting period if you want to buy civil at a store. Yeah, I'd like a butter knife. Okay, just sign here and we'll do the background check. You come back in three days. We'll see if you can get that butter knife. We'll set it in the back for you.
Starting point is 00:13:06 It'll be waiting for you. I mean, look, if you are just using knives to butter your bread or your baked potato, you've got nothing to worry about. You got nothing to worry about. You're fine. Right. So if the tracker's in the handle of the butter knife, so what? You're not doing anything wrong.
Starting point is 00:13:23 I wish, you know, I told the story. before when my daughter my youngest daughter she's 18 now but when she was 3 she actually took a butter knife and buttered our dog was she planning on baking I'm not sure we fortunately
Starting point is 00:13:38 got to the dog and the butter before that happened and it could have been sooner though it could have been sooner if we had a tracking device and the butter knife right it could have prevented a lot of hassle and a really nasty dog bath
Starting point is 00:13:54 And then when we took the butter away from her, she found another way to cause trouble by yogurting the dog in a full... She had an entire container of yogurt that she dumped on the dog and then... She didn't use a knife on that, though. No, she used her hands that. You got smart, see? That's what's going to happen. What do you put a tracking device in her hands?
Starting point is 00:14:21 And then maybe we know... People are going to realize they can't use a knife. they're going to have to use something else. It's crazy. I mean, the whole thing is just, it's nuts. There's no way to prevent every bad thing from happening in life. You just can't do it. We can't, we can't safety-proof the entire planet.
Starting point is 00:14:40 It's not possible. We could do our best. We're trying. Yeah, you do what you can and then, you know, things are just going to happen. The Best of the Glenn Beck program.

Starting point is 00:15:10 All right, let's talk to John in Utah. John, you're on the Glenn Beck program. Hi. Hey, Pat. Hey. How's going? Good. Doing well. You're really concerned, or you're just making small talk? Absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:15:22 I couldn't. Yeah, okay. That's what I was feeling some of that. All right, go ahead. So the 2019 legislative session just wrapped up in Utah. And apparently in the budget, they set aside one and a half million dollars for a shrine for Orrin Hatch. What? Nice.
Starting point is 00:15:43 What? A shrine to Orrin Hatch, one and a half million dollars. Yeah. And the thing is is that Oren lobbied for this. He won a cron. million dollars for it. Seriously? That's embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:16:03 He should be ashamed of himself. Oren Hatch lobbied the Utah legislature to provide $2 million for a statue or a shrine to him. Well, yeah. Well, part of it is that they're going to do like a replica of his office in the Senate. That is crazy. Good. So. Look, it's 1.5 million.
Starting point is 00:16:26 1.5. Right. Out of the whole budget of Utah, I'm sure that's just a drop in the bucket. So, go ahead and do it. Is anybody but you hacked off about this in Utah, John? So I'm hearing a lot of people that are annoyed. Annoit isn't hacked off, though.
Starting point is 00:16:47 I mean, that's, that is crazy. I know, annoyed isn't hacked off though, because people get annoyed and then up goes the shrine. You're right. They get annoyed, and then they just provide a million. and a half dollars for a shrine. Maybe it doesn't go up.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Thanks, John. I mean, do people not remember who Orrin Hatch is what he did while he was in office? 40-year senator is what- Yeah, yeah. And a good one, too. Okay. That sided with Ted Kennedy on every issue. I remember a while ago, this is maybe last year when Ted Kennedy's son was talking about
Starting point is 00:17:25 Kennedy and Hatch's relationship. Because you're working with them. Because that's how he did. He forged these personal bonds. Him and Orrin Hatch. You know, Orrin Hatch, I think, got elected probably bashing your dad. He says it. He came to Washington to counteract my dad's vote.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Orn Hatch did. And then what happened? Cutting every deal in the world because he knew it was going to pass. If Ted Kennedy signed off on it and he was sponsor of it, then boom. Everyone else would say, oh, well, geez, if Warren and Ted are for it, then bang. Right. What a revolutionary concept. Hello, Utah.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Did you maybe not hear that little? Did he just maybe not follow his exploits during those 40 years in office? Orrin Hatch was terrible. He was a terrible senator. I wouldn't give one penny to a shrine to Oran Hatch. Now, this article from Salt Lake Tribune said we could spend the money in more responsible ways. Oh, you think? What?
Starting point is 00:18:20 You think? What? Is this some sort of quack writing this article? Look at the byline. Who's responsible for that? For that article. That is just unconscionable. Oh, this is Michelle Quist.
Starting point is 00:18:35 She believes the Hatch Shrine is one more sign of Utah's GOP's bro club. Yes. Yes, it is. You're 100% correct, Michelle. You're exactly right. Yeah, no kidding. I don't agree with the Salt Lake Tribune on much,
Starting point is 00:18:48 but we're together on that. Yeah, no kidding. That's despicable. Mike, Florida. You're on the Glenn Beck program with Pat. Jeffie. Hi. Hey, Pat. How are you doing today? Doing good. I just wanted to talk about why people get pushed into doing some of these things with the varsity blues. For instance, my child was a valedorian 5.0, had over a 50, 150, 200 of community service hours, but couldn't get into a Florida school because we had
Starting point is 00:19:16 Florida prepaid and our tuition is like 10% of what the out-of-state people pay. So here, We're stock having to send our child somewhere else because of money issues with the school. And I don't think that's fair. I don't know. And I think that's a part of the thing that pushes these people. Hmm. Wow. So with a 5.0, which out of a 4.0 possibility.
Starting point is 00:19:38 They have the thing now. Yeah, I know. I know. And that's amazing. Did you say, shoot. $1,400 on the SATs. Wow. How much you pay for that?
Starting point is 00:19:48 What's what I'm wondering. That's about what you have to do. Yeah. I mean, that's the kids are not getting in. That's crazy. And it's all because money. I'm not aware of the issue with the schools, though, on that because I had Florida prepaid too at one time. And, you know, it was, I don't know that there was ever a problem with that.
Starting point is 00:20:07 I mean, my son ended up going to a school outside of Florida, so it never mattered. But it's the tuition. They get four times of tuition. Out-of-state people pay $25,000 where we only pay $3,000 a semester. Right. So they try to get more people from out of state at the Florida schools, as that what you're saying? So they get higher tuition. And it's not only in Florida schools.
Starting point is 00:20:26 It's in other states, too. It's in Illinois. It's in New York. And it's all about money-driven. But now they can sit there on their high horse and somebody tried to help get their child. And, you know, they want to be a little bit investigated, too. And I don't mean to sound like a... No, I understand that.
Starting point is 00:20:39 You got a legitimate beef. People pay money. Yeah. That's what... I know that. They want the best for their kids. I understand that. And that's why it's so strange that they're, you know, taking such a hard line with them.
Starting point is 00:20:51 But, you know, I got it. It's a crime. and nobody wants to do that. Look at it this way, though, Mike. At least you're not building a shrine to Orrin Hatch. I didn't have 1.5 sitting around in the backyard. Yeah, yeah. Because he's such a great, great guy.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Thank you. Thank you. He's fantastic. Thank you, guys. He's a legend. Thank you, Mike. I appreciate it. AAA 727 B.E.C.
Starting point is 00:21:13 I mean, Oren gave years. Years of service. To the state of Utah and to the country of the United States. He sure did. and dedicated service to all kinds of not so conservative causes. And in some cases, very liberal causes. But when he went into office. Yeah, he was, he went into office campaigning virtually as a,
Starting point is 00:21:37 as the opposite of Ted Kennedy. And then he got to office with Ted Kennedy, and they became the best friends. And then agreed on everything. That's great. I know we've kind of chatted about this before, but how many times that happened the other way? How many times that happened the other way?
Starting point is 00:21:54 Let's see. Or like Orrin Hatch would get voted in and he would go into Washington and meet Ted Kennedy and Ted would go, you know what? You know what? I'm going to vote with Orrin and I are together on this. Let me see, carry the one. Zero.
Starting point is 00:22:05 It happened no times. Isn't that fascinating? Yeah, it is. Yeah, it never happens. I don't know. For some reason, it's always the conservatives who go the other way. In the Supreme Court, in the Senate, everywhere.
Starting point is 00:22:16 I just wanted to try to get along. Yeah. Everybody get along. Well, the hip kids, I guess, are on the left for some reason. and so you want to be one of the hip kids. So you go along with their agenda. And Hatch did it from just about the time he got into office all the way through. And now you're going to build a shrine to the guy in Utah.
Starting point is 00:22:34 Ridiculous. Wow. But only a million dollar. Only a one and a half. One and a half million. A dollar shrine. That's it. If the Hatch family wants a shrine.
Starting point is 00:22:45 You get a trailer for 1.5, don't you? And yes. But, you know, if the Hatch Foundation wants a shrine, build it yourself Let the foundation build it Yeah, let the foundation pay for the whole thing The people of Utah
Starting point is 00:22:58 Don't have to build that They don't have to pay for it That's unbelievable Don't give me start It's too late I guess you're already It didn't start It's just madness though
Starting point is 00:23:09 It is it Look, that's just greed It's just greedy It's just look We've got the money Or we could raise the money Through our foundation But why
Starting point is 00:23:16 But we don't want to We can get the taxpayers Exactly And what do the taxpayers get out of that? They get to go and and pay to go see it. Yeah, right. Oh, look, there's some papers he signed with Ted Kennedy. At least when, you know, owners of sports teams convince a city or a state to chip in funds
Starting point is 00:23:37 to build their stadiums for them, for these billionaires to, the taxpayers to build their stadium, at least you get to go to the stadium and enjoy the team that, you know, you love. You still have to pay for that, too, though. Yeah, you do. You do have to pay to get into the stadium. the stadium. I was always for that, but I'm kind of against it. Me too. While I want new stadiums, I know, me too.
Starting point is 00:23:59 They shouldn't be built by tax dollars. I know. I agreed, agreed. They should not. I mean, how many poor people own sports franchises again? It's your team. It's your team. No.
Starting point is 00:24:08 And by the way, if we don't have the stadium built, we're going to take it somewhere else. And go ahead. Right. Let's go to Mike in New Hampshire. Hey, Mike, you're on the, you're on the Glenn Beck program. Yeah. Well, thank you very much, gentlemen. Forgive me at the outset because I'm a man recounting two women's stories.
Starting point is 00:24:27 Oh, no. So, yeah. How dare you. I encountered two women in my life. Both loved them dearly. And at one point in time, in a confidence, they told me that they had had abortions. One had an abortion because it was a burden upon the family, family going through trouble, you know, marital relationships. Did they struggle with it?
Starting point is 00:24:51 What's a, yeah, well, that's what I'm going to. And the other was a date rape in college. Both, yeah, the first one, it was nine years after her abortion, and every year she remembers the day. And I held her as she cried all night long, wondering what her son would have been and what his date, what she would have had. She has nightmares. I wonder why she'd stay away from me on one particular day. day. And one day she didn't, and this is what happened, she cried all night long in my arms about the son's face she'll never see. The second woman who had a date rape was the very same thing.
Starting point is 00:25:35 And you would think that, you know, they bring up this thing of rape and incest and all, whatever this case may be, this one particular woman, a good woman, was date raped in college, and she feels such shame that even though societal pressures and they can't walk around not married and pregnant and your parents, you know, all that of the pressure, she still regrets not standing up for her child. So both of these stories are the only two encounters I've had, but they always talk about this at the moment, and I know human beings can wash stuff away, but when death occurs, it's the only thing you can't fix as humans. And I would just say, I'm on the edge of the death penalty. I understand that. You know, as a Christian, a wasted
Starting point is 00:26:28 life is a wasted life. I know I won't get into the deterrent factor or whatever, how many innocent people have been executed. But what I know is, there's only one thing we can't solve as human beings, and that's mortality. So I have relatives that have adopted children when they couldn't have their own. They kept the mother, the birth mother involved. Both children know they got two mommies, and this is the mommy I live with, and this is the mommy, and she was a professional who couldn't have the children. But you can work it out.
Starting point is 00:27:05 I don't understand with our ability to know ultrasound, our ability to, we do in vitro surgeries now to save children. There's really the excuse of back alley, doesn't hold anymore. We know exactly what's going on. That's so disingenuous. By the third month, you're doing ultrasounds, they can probably tell you what color of the kids' eyes are. And it's a common theme between, you know,
Starting point is 00:27:31 a number of stories that we've heard is that, you know, struggling after the abortion. Yeah. Yeah. Realized, you know, trying to live with yourself and live with what happened after that. Yeah. It's a struggle all around.
Starting point is 00:27:44 And I'm torn between the rape as well. It's a hard one. It is a really hard one. The rape is really hard. Because, you know, her choice was taken away in the beginning there. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Like listening to this podcast? If you're not a subscriber, become one now on iTunes.
Starting point is 00:28:16 But while you're there, do us a favor and rate the show. It's a big day today for the kids all over America walking out of class. Yay! In protest to climate change. Inspired by Greta Thunberg, the 16-year-old Swedish climate activist. Oh, that's wonderful. Who was just nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Oh, she deserves it.
Starting point is 00:28:39 Right. She deserves it. Now, more than 100 countries, more than 100 countries are participating in this. Good. Amazing. Good. Amazing. The kids are going to, they're going to affect change here.
Starting point is 00:28:52 Right. They're the ones to do it because they're inheriting this problem, Jeffie. they're the ones who are going to be punished and pay for this. It's fascinating. Hundreds of thousands of children are expect to walk out of their classrooms today for a global climate strike. Oh, no. Amid growing anger at the failure of politicians to tackle the escalating ecological crisis.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Oh, no. If these kids don't go to school, what will we do? Or if they walk out and stand outside their school for a while, what will we do? What do you think that's going to do to us? I don't know. You're going on strike? You're going to walk out of your class on a Friday, so? But look, look, it's going to bring, it's going to bring light to the climate emergency facing the planet.
Starting point is 00:29:41 Okay. And again, what is the emergency we face? What's going on? Because of government in action. What's happening? Because of the government in action. Because there's a climate crisis is what's happening. I don't know what your deal is.
Starting point is 00:29:51 I don't know exactly what part of the climate is in crisis right now. A government leadership on climate change is the crisis. Yeah. Okay. But I'm just trying to get to the heart of the problem. What exactly is happening in this crisis that makes it a crisis? Those in power are betraying us, taking away our future. In what way have they taken away your future?
Starting point is 00:30:13 Because they're responsible for the climate crisis that's unfolding in horrendous ways around the world. Those ways are what? What are the horrendous ways? I mean, I don't know what you're so fighting about. No, I'm just trying to find out. what the horrendous ways. Every country is going to be part of this, except Antarctica. No children are walking out of school in Antarctica.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Yeah, because no children live there. I'm just saying they're not part of it. So I don't know what you want to do with that. Little brats. Little brats in Antarctica. Were you too good? Right? Thank you.
Starting point is 00:30:41 Thank you. So it's the duty of these children to act. To act. Yeah. For our futures. Because the temperature's got up. 0.9 degrees. That's what climate justice means, my friend.
Starting point is 00:30:53 Climate justice means this. More food is growing as a result of the warmer climate. So why is that bad? Okay, so there isn't a problem is what you're saying. Right, that's what I'm saying. Whatever. No problem. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:31:05 I'm okay with it so far. What's happened? I mean, other than what's always happened, you know? So sometimes it's warmer, sometimes it's colder. And by the way, each of those extremes mean the same thing. Global warming. Oh, yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:21 So if it's hotter than normal, why that, of course, is. global warming. If it's colder than normal, that also is global warming. And if it's about the same as ever, it's global warming. Well, I mean, look, it's all escalating ecological crisis. Yeah. Okay. So let's- So let's walk out of school today. And make it make a stand. And by the way, you know none of these kids are just looking for a day out of school. Well, Greta isn't. No. Greta's not. No. Greta's getting a Nobel pro or at least she's been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. So good for her. Yeah, that's great. I hope she wins it because what a great cause getting kids to walk out of class every Friday. And I guess it is every Friday. Yes, well,
Starting point is 00:32:07 now it's going to be starting to be every Friday around the world until somebody recognizes the crisis at hand. There you go. If somebody doesn't get hysterical over the fact that it's 0.9 degrees warmer in the last 100 years, then. And they haven't done their job. You can make fun of this crisis all you want. No, I'm scared of it. I'm really frightened over it. Tired of everyone just poo-poo in this because the earth is in an ecological crisis.
Starting point is 00:32:39 No, you keep saying that. I'm just not getting the specifics on it. That's all. I'm just looking for the specifics. Yeah, it's funny that they don't have specifics. No, none. Weird. Never do.
Starting point is 00:32:48 They never do. Al Gore is, well, look at the drought and the fire. earth and the flooding where you see fish swimming down the street on a funny day. I love that one. That's my favorite one. The swimming, fish swimming down the street on a sunny day. That's the type of ecological crisis we're in right now. It is.
Starting point is 00:33:20 It is. Don't you mock that because that's scary. Have you ever seen a fish? swim down the street on a sunny day? Actually, I have. Have you really? I have. Uh, okay.
Starting point is 00:33:29 Actually, I have. I lived in Florida where the ecological crisis is worse than ever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And nobody's doing anything about it, Pat. Right. Even though Al warned us about it. Hey, I went down to Miami and saw fish from the ocean swimming in the streets on the sunny day. The same thing was true in Honolulu just two days ago, just from high tides because of the sea level rise now.
Starting point is 00:33:54 We are going to suffer some of these consequences, but we can limit and avoid the most catastrophic consequences if we accelerate the pace of change that's now beginning. There you go. What's good is there was never any high tide before. No. Before the oceans rose up even more than they already are. Right. I mean, it wasn't low tide and high tide and any of that. No, there was none of that.
Starting point is 00:34:18 It's because of our ethie voice that this has happened. and so otherwise you wouldn't be seeing fish swimming down the street on a Sunday day. We haven't seen AOC and Al together, have we? With this new Green Deal and Al. No, you would think they'd be a... Yeah, he would. I'm a little... A natural pair.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Yeah. I'm surprised Al hasn't backed her up. I don't know what the deal is with that. I haven't even heard him mention the Green New Deal. That's a... Yeah, that's fascinating. Why? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:34:50 I don't know. Maybe she's trying to horn in on his money. Is he jealous of it? that because he didn't propose something that bold? Very possible. I wonder. I wonder if this little upstart isn't stealing his thunder. She thinks she is. Right? That is possible.
Starting point is 00:35:07 Oh, yeah. It's likely is what it is. It's likely. You know, same with Nancy Pelosi. She doesn't like her either because she's stealing her thunder as well. Oh, big time. And she's causing problems for her. And so they don't like it. I mean, the headline, you know, who's in charge? And is Nancy the best? who's the boss, all that can. I mean, that could not sit well. AOC's the boss. Yeah. She said so. The young upstarts are, that's for sure. Right. AAA 727 BECK. Also, did we discover what really happened at Stonehenge? Do we finally figure out that the aliens came down and arranged these gigantic rocks in this particular way because, what,
Starting point is 00:35:50 it was a landing site or what is the deal? Stonehenge. I think we've finally gotten the answer. Well, look, you're right. I mean, there used to be, you know, it was a place for, we thought it was a place for burial. We thought it was a place for healing. We thought it was, you know, the observatory. We thought aliens and landing. Right. We thought it was a landing thing. But now they've discovered about 8,500 bones. And those bones were mostly pigs and cow bones. so they think it was just a barbecue pit. What? They just have big barbecue.
Starting point is 00:36:26 They used to have just big barbecue parties at Stonehenge. They would have, they would barbecue pigs and cows and all the cities and towns and peoples would all meet there, and that's where they had their big barbecue party. And how did they arrange the gigantic stones like that? That was just for the party. Just for the party. Absolutely amazing.
Starting point is 00:36:52 It's just amazing. How many things? That's crazy. We know things for facts, but they're not facts. You know, we know aliens built that. Stonehenge is a barbecue pit? He's that plate for barbecue. There's just pig roasts going on.
Starting point is 00:37:06 That's fantastic. I mean, come on. That's fantastic. They found mostly pig bones, so it was mostly pork. But there were some few cows there. They didn't roast a few cows. So, you know, it wasn't Texans because we don't do barbecue pork. We don't have been pork.
Starting point is 00:37:20 We do barbecue beef. There might have been a pig, maybe one or two pigs. thrown in there most but it would have been mostly cows so clearly you know stonehenge didn't happen in texas no it did not but it's just the community barbecue now that that is fantastic so it was just a place for you know the convergence of uh you know all the municipalities to get together and forge alliances between all the neighboring groups and just have fun so it's a neighborhood barbecue area it's just a neighborhood barbecue this is the best of a glenbeck program we're talking some of the alternatives to these Hollywood stars that they could have gotten their kids into
Starting point is 00:38:09 a lot of different schools that are still pretty good schools and maybe you wouldn't have had to pay $500,000 for entry. It does seem a little steep. It seems a tad, yeah, a tad steep. And is it worth it? I mean, her daughter, in the case of Lori Loughlin, her daughter didn't even apparently appreciate because she said she didn't care about school. And maybe she's just saying that for, you know,
Starting point is 00:38:37 her podcast or her beauty blog or whatever she does. Her Instagram posts. Yeah. Where she apparently makes $30,000 to $50,000 per post. That's pretty good. Yeah, that's not bad. But some of these schools, you know, like, for instance, University of Michigan, pretty good school.
Starting point is 00:39:00 Yeah. 27% acceptance rate. So maybe you could get in there. Maybe? Or maybe not because 27%. That did not sound that good. I thought it was going to be higher than that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Bell Haven University in Mississippi, the hardest school in Mississippi to get into. Oh, I mean, Belhaving. 59%. Bell Haven, that's like the Ivy League of Mississippi. Yes, it apparently is. Let's see if you could go up to Montana and get into Rocky Mountain College,
Starting point is 00:39:31 64% of students are admitted. 64. That's a lie. It's like 80. 80 or 90. But anybody, you go to Montana there like the end. Yes.
Starting point is 00:39:41 Okay, University of Nevada at Reno. 88% of the kids get into that school. And that campus is actually beautiful. It's a nice campus. Yeah, it is. You could go up to Laramie, Wyoming. And who doesn't want to go to Laramie, Wyoming? And go to the fine University of Wyoming.
Starting point is 00:39:58 Yeah, the Cowboys, who don't want to be the Cowboys anymore, 97% acceptance rate there. In fact, so, you know. The 3% they didn't accept are the ones that said, you know what, we're not coming there. I mean, that's about it.
Starting point is 00:40:15 So they've checked off saying, well, they're just not. We're not taking them. But I'm looking at the Ivy League school acceptance rates. Columbia, 7%. Wow. That's pretty stiff. Princeton, 6%. Harvard, 5%.
Starting point is 00:40:31 So, yeah, you know, okay, you are bribing officials to get your kid in there. Right. They don't have a 4.0 plus. Oh, plus. Yeah, that might not even be good enough, right? You know, 1520 on your ACT or SAT or whatever that is. I guess it'd be SAT. And ours donated to help the poor and everything else, man.
Starting point is 00:40:52 I mean, you're going to be working hard to get that. Yeah. That's hard work. So it's not just the grades. Yeah. It's not, it's not just your test scores. you've got to have some other incentives to get you in there too. You've got to be kind of, you know, you do some special things.
Starting point is 00:41:06 And good. And that's good. That's what it's supposed to be. It should be. Yeah, that's what it's supposed to be. Yeah. Otherwise, you know, just bribe one of the coaches for $500,000. Why not?
Starting point is 00:41:18 Why not? Why not? That's what they thought. Why not? Well, I don't know. Jail? That might be one good reason not to do it. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:41:26 You're going to jail for one of the best for your kids. It'd be interesting to see what happens to it. If they do wind up in jail, Freud. It will be. It'll be interesting. I mean, really, what do you think? Maybe probation. Yeah, that's what I think.
Starting point is 00:41:37 I mean, probation. Pay a fine, maybe. Pay a fine, probation. Community service. Say you're sorry. Something like that. Right. Say you're sorry.
Starting point is 00:41:44 She's already been fired from her job. Right. Which is pretty, you know, that's serious when you haven't even been convicted of anything. Right. So, yeah, I would guess no jail time. Same with Jesse Smollett, by the way. Jesse Smollett, or how. however he pronounced his name.
Starting point is 00:42:01 I don't think he's going to do, Don't you? I don't think he'll do Joe to. You think he will? I think he has to. You think Jesse Smollett will do jail time? I mean, how long? That long.
Starting point is 00:42:14 Because he faces, what, 48 years or something? Well, that's going to be silly, of course. But, you know, he goes in for at least a year, right? Got to do a year. I don't think so. I don't think he will. We'll see. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:42:27 But, I mean, he maintains his innocence. And maybe that will hack them off to the point where they will insist on jail time. I don't know. We'll see. I mean, well, look, right. As of now, he's innocent, right? We're just going by what we know. We haven't seen anything in court. There's nothing, you know, trials happening next month.
Starting point is 00:42:44 And in the case of Empire, they've done the right thing. They're waiting until this is adjudicated. They're waiting to see if the guy is convicted of anything. Unlike the goody two shoes over there at Hallmark. Pulling the plug on. That already pulled the plug on poor Lori Laughman. AAA 727 B-E-C-K. Also, we've got this leftist protester
Starting point is 00:43:05 that went into a college Republicans event at Portland State University. Campus police were there at the meeting. And it's fascinating because this guy comes in and disrupts the meeting for over an hour. This story and clip is just so frustrating. This makes me angry. It's so frustrating.
Starting point is 00:43:28 Watch this guy do his thing at a college Republicans event. For those who are listening on radio, he's just sitting there now. Ringing a cowbell. While the guy's trying to present whatever he's presenting. And he won't leave. He stands up and now he's walking toward the front of the room. I mean, they ask him to leave. Is he going to make, okay, okay, you made your point.
Starting point is 00:43:55 Get out. Nope. Walking up to the front of the room and I'm going to walk in front of the screen. So that's what he does. Watch this. He gets into a little altercation with one of the members of the College Republicans Club. In front of the presentation. I mean, how can you not want to engage this guy?
Starting point is 00:44:18 Well, you'd want to punch him square in the face is what you'd want to do. Whether you did it or not. By engage, I mean punch in the face. Yes. I do. I want to and I wasn't there. Right. It's very frustrating.
Starting point is 00:44:32 And you know, but that's what he wants, right? I mean, he wants that engagement. Yes, he does. I know that. I know that. And so in your heart, you don't want to do it. But on the other side of your heart, you want it just punch him right in the face and get them out of there. And that went on for over an hour.
Starting point is 00:44:50 The police were there. The cop comes up. The security was there. Does nothing. Stans there. I don't understand how they can not, how they make that happen. At one point, the guy doing the presentation gets up in the, in the, in the guy's face, in the protesters face.
Starting point is 00:45:05 Doesn't do anything. He's got his hands behind his back. Right, but they just walks up to him. Yeah, they're kind of pushing chests together. And the cop comes up and moves the guy who's doing the presentation. No? How about you get him out of here? You don't have the right to ruin this event.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Don't the people in the room that are there for the event have the right to enjoy? to experience the event? I would think so. I mean, that's what they were there for. They weren't there for you ringing your stupid cowbell for an hour. The cops should have gotten him out of there. I think so too.
Starting point is 00:45:42 It's unbelievable that they didn't. I'm not even talking about arresting him or anything. I'm just saying, look, you made your point. Get him out. Yeah, get out. You don't. You're disrupting this event. You're not allowed to do that.
Starting point is 00:45:55 He starts bragging about it on social media. I've shut this entire S down. all by myself, he bragged afterwards. And so, you know, he got exactly what he wanted. He got the publicity. No kidding. No joke about that. And he got the satisfaction knowing that he shut the event down.
Starting point is 00:46:19 Yeah. So the Republicans didn't have their event because of him and his cowbell. Good for you. And good for you. Yeah, nice job. Good for you. Congratulations. Have you ever seen, I can't think of a time when I've seen.
Starting point is 00:46:32 a person on the right go into an event on the left and do something similar. No, but it sounds fun. It does, doesn't it? I mean... It makes me want to go buy a cowbell and go to one of these socialist meetings
Starting point is 00:46:48 at some egghead college and start ringing a bell in it. You'd be arrested. You would. You'd be arrested. Immediately. It'd be over. And it'd be your fault.
Starting point is 00:46:56 And if there was any violence at all, it's all your fault. Yeah, or they... You know, five people would jump you would beat you senseless. And it'd be your fault. And nothing would happen. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:47:05 And then people would go, yeah, right. Well, you deserved it. You shouldn't have been there doing that. What are you doing? Yes. Why do you hate them? You racist? Exactly.
Starting point is 00:47:14 I assume it's amazing. Amazing. It's agonizing is what it is. But, you know, this is what we have to deal with. This is the, it's the environment right now. It's not an environment conducive to being conservative. And it's a little of that. I mean, that's just a civil society, right?
Starting point is 00:47:38 I mean, okay, so you disagree with this group that's presenting something in this room at a college. Okay, fine, tough. Move on. Yeah, move on with your life. It just doesn't, I don't comprehend that, how you need to then, they can't have their say. And I think that's how people on the right look at things. and so that's why they don't disrupt events like this. You know, let them do their thing.
Starting point is 00:48:07 I don't care. So what? But they want to shut down anybody on the right, speaking out or doing a presentation or trying to educate other people because they can't win the argument on ideas and they know it. And some of those beliefs are working, by the way, because you can't say anything bad. Right.
Starting point is 00:48:27 You can't say anything bad. You can't even tweet anything bad. You can't tweet bad. You can't think bad. just because we're not going to show it. You will be shut down. You will be shut down. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:36 You'll be squashed. Yes. The Blaze Radio Network. On Demand.
