Welcome to the podcast. Today, it's Pat and Stu in for Glenn, who's on vacation. He's back next week. So today we talked about the shaming from the media at people who went outside on Memorial Day weekend. If you went to the beach, you're the enemy, and the media was all over it, especially if you happen to live in a red state, I've noticed. It seems to be one of the big parts of criticism. Plus, we point to an amazing story that took an amazing twist from Canada as it relates to this. We'll go into that today. Also, we'll talk about. more criticism from the left on Amazon and how evil they are making just not paying enough taxes Pat and they make a lot of money so they really shouldn't even exist because it makes you bad you know billionaire shouldn't exist we learn that during the campaign not should you be paying

more taxes then you're required to pay yes clearly you should question yeah that even bernie sanders seems to agree with us on but we'll get into that as well uh triple eight seven 2727 beck is the number to call in.

Well, wait a minute. If she's not mad, why do you care?

You can't, you're not the judge of that. She is. And she enjoyed it. Clearly, everybody knows that. And what's empowering for a woman here? Is it that some, you know, male executive gets to decide, oh, that was a non-consensual situation or that she gets to decide that it's a non-consensual. situation or not. She's the one that should. Does that mean that there can be no spontaneity anymore

in a romance at all? You can never just kiss somebody. Right. I mean, that's, it's part of the magic, right? Yes. Like, if you're just saying, ma'am, I am thinking about putting my lips on your lips. Would you mind signing this notarized? We'll get the notarized. Then we can have the kiss afterwards. But would you sign this form and we'll have our lawyers negotiated. Intriplicate, please. Sign here, initial here. Sign there and initial right there. Like the magic, that loses the magic of a first kiss, does it not? Yeah, big time. I mean, if you were to, if you were to, uh, to survey the audience right now,

every happily married couple, take a, I don't know, 100 happily married couples and ask them, on their first kiss, did you ask for permission to start that kiss with outward like permission? Obviously, we all get physical signals, right? Like, that's how most people would, would try to calculate. whether they're allowed to do it or not. You know, does she seem into it? Does he seem into it?

Then you go for it, right? I mean, that's kind of how it usually goes. There's a leaning. There's a certain amount of leaning towards each other that indicates the kiss is coming. There's all these things. This is a dance, right? It's, this is supposed to be something that's not easily defined. That's what makes, that's the magic of a relationship.

So instead, there's this now, this thing where you have to have it down in black and white. And if you said, asked 100 people, what would the percentage be who actually physically ask, may I kiss you or can I kiss you? 20%? Maybe there could be a reason why you might do it. It might be a romantic ask and a certain certain. Especially if it was 10 years ago or more. The chances, I think, go way down. The chances that you said, may I, may I kiss you?

Because I, I mean, my wife kissed me on our first kiss. Oh my God. And she did not. She did not ask my permission, Stu. She did not ask me if it was okay. In fact, she jumped me and practically knocked me over the railing into her parents' bushes. I barely caught my balance. She just leapt in and went for it.

And she did not say, may I kiss you, please. Now, this is, this is stunning to me. because look, I love your wife's cookies, which sounds more flirtatious than it is. He actually has a kick cookie company, scrumptious cookie.com. Exactly right. Right. I would like to go buy more cookies there, but I'm a little, after this non-consensual news, I'm a little, right?

I don't know if I want to support a business like that. You're a little disgusted by her, right? And yes, it was, you know, 37 years ago. But still, that doesn't make it right. I can see the echoes of that event in your soul. Do you see that I'm still a lot? little bit troubled by it? No, look, we can go back and watch

you watch the Mad Men era, right? Where like every secretary went by and got groped as they were bringing their copies to the, to the executives. No one wants to go back to that. I mean, we're not, no one's arguing that. There was a clip actually that happened relatively recently, was a news anchor was filing a report.

And I want to say someone came by and like gave her a little slap on the butt as they were walking by. And she got, and like, completely. inappropriate. Completely wrong, obviously. And there's a good, a good example for, you should be outraged. I would be outraged. If that happened to my wife, I would be freaking pissed off. Yes. And so I understand that like totally. That's a totally different situation than someone being kissed and outwardly telling you, she's excited about it, and you still apologize for it and basically call this guy a rapist. Yeah, it's terrible. You're telling you, it's just ridiculous.

When you have him on camera, you've given his name, and then you, you're, you're, you've given his name, and then you're saying he was engaging in non-consensual behavior? Like, what is this guy's life like today? I guess if you've seen the clip, everyone would say, come on, that's ridiculous. But still, you now have it kind of on your record until the end of time. When there's no victim, by the way. No victim.

No victim at all. That's a victimless crime right there. Yeah. And it seems like it's a real crime now. So I don't know. A, I have no idea, you know, even though your terrible origin story of your relationship, which sounds so devastating for you. It was horrifying.

It was horrifying. That aside, I keep thinking to myself, good God, I'm glad I don't have to date in this environment. I would have no idea what the hell to do. I would have no idea. I feel for you if you're out there trying this right now. And especially in the workplace, how do you meet anybody at work now? You can't, right? You can't even approach somebody in a romantic way at work.

Yeah. Otherwise it's sexual harassment. That was my only chance, too. Because, I mean, you know, look, I don't have a game. You know, not a guy who comes. could achieve. There wasn't a lot of picking up in bars that was going to go on in my life. The only chance I ever had was being around long enough to annoy them into

entertaining the idea. That was basically my only approach. And it worked at least once. So you have that going on. The work thing is a big part. Especially if you think back to, you know, in our industry in particular, this is as dumb of an industry as it is, it's one that. you are constantly working, especially when you're young in your career.

If you're not working 20 hours a day, you get nowhere in this industry. Because there's a lot of people who want to be on the radio and want all their free concert tickets and all the crap that goes along with radio as you're coming up in it. You know, a lot of people want to do it. So you have to outwork everybody. You have no time to do anything. You know, there's no partying. There's like you might get a little bit of that here and there.

But generally speaking, it's just one of those industries where you're working for no money, really long hours, doing work that no one else wants to do. That's essentially your first 10 years in the industry for most people. And that is a situation. It is not conducive at all to going out and dating people who aren't also in your industry. Yeah. You know, it's difficult. Working weekends, working nights, working holidays. Yeah. All of that stuff. You know, I think back to my wife, who's also in radio, no surprise. She, we used to have, she would have New Year's Eve gigs every New Year's Eve. And so if you think about like the typical New Year's Eve couples thing that you do, you're out somewhere, the ball comes down and you kiss your significant other, kind of like

that typical thing that happens. I know with you, Pat, you make out with random strangers on the street usually in that moment. But like, so for 15, 20 years, myself and my wife, she would be on stage doing a countdown at some club because that was what she did. And I would be sitting by myself at the bar watching, waiting for her to be done so we could go home together. But There was no, none of that stuff happened because she was always on stage, randomly making out with other people. No, I'm not kidding. That didn't happen. Pat was there one time, but forget it.

So my point is, that is like, it takes you out of that realm. And a lot of jobs are like that. It's not just radio. When you're really, you know, bust in your butt to try to get somewhere in your career, those are the people you're around. So now you can't do anything with them. You apparently can't even, if you meet someone randomly in the park and spend a day with them, you can't even kiss them even when they want that to happen. I would have no idea how to navigate these waters. I don't know.

I would have absolutely no clue. And if you're trying to do it, especially if you were someone who maybe had a relationship early, that a long-term relationship when you were, you know, let's say you're in your early 20s, you're in a long-term relationship, maybe you get married, you get divorced, and now you're back on the dating scene,

and you're trying to jump back into that world after already dealing with it. I don't know how anybody would do it. Look at this. This woman in a park had, that's a nice origin story, isn't it? I think so. Right?

Like if they get married, 30 years from now, they're going to be like, so we're in the park and we're hanging out and I had to go to a store. I came back, she was gone, but she left her number. And I really wanted to contact her. I was so excited. And then I saw her across the park. She was in the middle of a news interview. And I just walked right in and I gave her a kiss. And that's how mommy and daddy met.

How I met your mother. Those are awesome stories. Yeah, that would be a great story. Now, I thought this one was going to end differently because when he first kissed her, I thought, oh, she's going to be pissed. Yeah. And nope, the exact opposite. And so then you're fine. Okay, well, it turned out well.

So now they got something to tell their grandkids if that worked out. Yeah, it's a nice story. And I'll say, you know, to the point of the whole coronavirus part of this, we act as if you can take, think about this. You're taking everybody in their 20s who's single, whose entire life for the past few years has been go to a bar, try to meet girls, go to a bar, try to meet guys. It's courtship.

You're in that period of your life where that's a big part of it, right? And you're basically saying with a shutdown, just turn it all off for a few months. Like that is not something you can just do easily. This is an entire world where you're saying no courtship, essentially, in your prime courtship era, just turn it off for a few months. And you know what?

Maybe it's 18 months. Maybe it's, maybe it's, it's, it's, so we get a vaccine, could be a few years. Like, that's completely insane. It's a foundational part of the, it's a building block, literally, of the human existence of our species. Yeah. You can't just turn it off. How would you meet people? If you're not allowed to go near another human being, how do you have a relationship?

You're asking these people, some people who, what if you're dating someone and it's like you're on the borderline? Does this continue? Does it not? Well, I guess it doesn't. Because we can't see each other. Like this is a big ask. And the fact that people want to go out and be at a pool within six feet of each other after multiple months of not being able to see another human being is not, it's not a crazy

instinct. It's not. No. You do your best, right? We can't turn society off. It's not just the economy. It is society. Here we are talking about the reason our species continues to exist.

Right? Like it's that big of a deal. if you extend it long enough. You kind of have to allow some of that to happen. Well, like you said, we don't even know how long this continues. They've been telling us, what, it might last up to 18 months. It might last up to 18 months. I mean, you know, with the economy, that's absurd.

But with relationships, it's dangerous to civilization. Right? What is the, like, everyone's like, oh, there's going to be this big birth boom in quarantine, which I don't know if that has happened. I kind of tend to doubt it. People who are already married, maybe? Maybe, although I tend to think everyone was just disgusted with each other after a couple of weeks. It's potentially revealing from my own situation.

But I think, like, generally speaking, people are just disgusted. That's why everyone's got puppies. There's no baby boom coming. There's just a puppy boom. That's all there is. The best of the Glenn Beck program. It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program. He's on vacation this week.

and he's eating really healthily. He just ordered five dozen of our cookies from my wife's cookie company, which is scrumptious cookie.com. Yes. If you'd like to order some for yourself. And we just opened this up to eight more states. So that's just to start.

We're doing the West. Then we're going to do, I don't know where we go from here, but hopefully soon everything will be opened up. But scrumptious cookie.com, if you'd like to get some delicious cookies. And you've opened up to factory in Wuhan, I understand. In Wuhan. Congratulations.

So you can get the COVID-19 chocolate chip cookie. It's delicious. It's worth it. I would say I would get COVID-19 to eat one of your wife's chocolate chip cookies. They're delicious. So he ordered five dozen. So he ordered five dozen of them. This is after what, two or three dozen last week and a couple dozen the week before.

So look for him to come back a little more visible than he's even been up until this point. because there will be more of him to view. Does anyone else, is anyone else getting these cookies? Is it like for the house? Or is it just Glenn? No, just Glenn.

It's just him in like a bathroom cabinet. It just says he sneaks in and eats a cookie every time he goes. I don't know, man. But he has been for sure our biggest client so far. In many ways. In many ways. In many ways. Yes.

Yeah, no, it's, those are delicious and I can understand that order. However, I will say this is very common. Maybe not with the cook. your cookies in particular, but people are just eating like there's no tomorrow. Because it's comforting, right? It is.

You just, I mean, things are so different and we've been turned upside down. And so you just want some kind of comfort. And so you turn to food. Yeah. And I kept thinking to myself, you know, we used to go out, we would go out to eat. Maybe my wife would have date night or whatever on the weekend. We'd go out and have a nice dinner if we can. And we were saving that money for a while.

And I thought to myself, you know, what I should do is spend that money on food that I can have shift to me. So I was going on that gold belly. You ever use gold belly? That's one of those sites. I haven't. It's basically like a door dash or whatever. No, not exactly. So Uber Eats will deliver from restaurants around you, right? Yeah. Door dash, or excuse me, Goldbelly is like all of the best foods from all around the country. So it's almost like a national door dash in a way. So like if you want a New York pizza from the New York place, they will get it and they freeze it and send it to you and it comes directly from the place. So the best, you know, cakes and cookies and you should get on there with their cookie company. For sure. Pies, everything.

Is it expensive? It is on the expensive side for sure. Yeah. You know, because it's quick shipping. Yeah. Yeah. But like again, like if I'm going to, you know, if I'm going to spend a normal, I'll go to a normal restaurant around here that might be okay and you're going to spend what 30 bucks a person or whatever. You can, if you're going to spend 30 bucks a person, you can get the best. you know, pizza or like, I ordered some place that I've sent lasagna. It was unbelievable. Like, I was like, again, you know, you're heating, you're reheating it and stuff, but hey, why not? I'm in a quarantine. I might as well get the best food from around the country was my theory. I like that, though. That's a good idea. It's also a great way to gain weight. Yes.

Because then you get large portions of delicious food from around the country and you can just kind of just dive in whenever you want. And that's a really, not a great thing for your physique. No. And my problem is I'm the only one in my house. doing that. So I'm becoming extremely extraordinarily large. I've outgrown the house now. I have to live in a separate. Oh, no. Yeah, a separate domicile from the rest of my family because they're all doing healthier stuff. Oh, I hate those people. Oh, they're just, they make me irritated. They make me sick. My wife is full-fledged vegetarian now for probably six or eight months. Wow. One of my sons has become a vegetarian, but only about three weeks worth, but he's doing really well, not eating meat for

three weeks. And one of my daughters, also not eating meat. And they're all on this health kick of vegetables every night. Sorry, I'm not joining you in that quite clearly. Will you, will you accept the vegetables on the side of your steak or no? No. Nope. Not even on the side. Nowhere on my plate. It is an interesting thing. You know, I talked to the guy who is the CEO of Impossible Foods, you know, the Impossible Burger. Yeah. And it was something that you guys taste tested on the air live with real meat and the impossible burger. And couldn't tell the difference. It couldn't tell the difference.

In fact, I think you both said that the impossible burger was the real burger. I think we did, yeah. Which was crazy. Was that in the Burger King test? No, that was the, it was another place. Oh yeah, another, yeah, the higher end one. Yeah, the higher end one. And so I was talking to him and it was interesting about him, I thought, was he is like,

you know, look, he wants to make a burger that people eat instead of meat. like his goal is to win that battle. But he wants to do it within capitalism. And he was talking about what the great things that capitalism has accomplished and how he's not looking for government help. He's not going to shame anyone into eating it. And this guy's probably not conservative, right? Yeah, I don't know what his politics are.

He definitely was friendly to capitalism. Definitely like didn't. He said a couple of times he said, you know, look, what we want from the government is for them to get out of our way so we can do our thing. Nice. Like I love here. that. I don't even get that from Exxon anymore.

Right? I can't get a freaking company to say the free market does anything. And I'm getting it from the guy who's making vegetarian meat products. I can get it from him. But I can't get it from, you know, BP. What happened? I don't understand. They've all caved. They've all caved. They all act as if the free market is this evil thing. And here, you know, here's a guy

who's saying, like, look, we want to win this battle because our product is not as good as meat, but better. We want people to like it more. You've got to love that at it. That's a great attitude. I really liked hearing that. It was a really interesting conversation. And I think he's, you like, you like the someone who's going to, you know, he was a scientist and he left this to start this company. And he's built, I mean, I, you know, it is, as you know, as well.

It tastes really, really good. And, you know, it's up to you. But I like that. He's like, you know, free choice. Like, the only way that this is going to happen, he brought up a great example of, in China, they, the Chinese government told their people to cut. meat intake by, I think, like, 50%. He's like, you know, the Chinese government has some success level with convincing people to do things in their country.

Like, I basically control it. And as he pointed out, like, they basically did nothing. They didn't change their habits at all. He's like, if the Chinese government's threats won't stop you to change your habits, trying to convince people to not eat meat or say, hey, you know what, it's really good for the environment or whatever, is not going to change their habits. What's going to change their habits is if they like it more.

Offer them a better alternative. Exactly. Brilliant. Yeah. And he's like, you know, we're going to, you know, eventually get to the point where this is cheaper than meat that you're traditionally getting. We're not there yet. We're not there. It's right.

It's not there yet. But it's getting there. You know, that you'll like he's like, it'll be healthier. You'll like it more. Like, you know, again, it's his company. He's saying good things about it. But it was, I just love the approach. The fact that he wasn't trying to shame us into it.

He wasn't trying to say, he even said, he's like, you know, I don't want a farm bill that helps our company. I want them out of our way. Like, wow. That's really refreshing. Yeah, kind of what it kind of is. He actually mentioned your taste test with you and Glenn. He did a podcast. Have you heard of how I built this?

I think I have, yeah. It's one where they basically profile companies. And they actually mentioned, they mentioned Glenn in the middle of this and the taste test that you guys did. The guy, the CEO of the company, saw the video. So, uh, here, listen to this clip. It's from how I built this from NPR.

Just last year, you, you upgraded the recipe for the burger. And then you began rolling it out at grocery stores and then at Burger King, which introduced the impossible whopper that people went crazy for, and then Applebee's and White Castle and all these other chains started selling it, and people loved it. I mean, I think even like Glenn Beck, you know, people like who are, like, you would imagine would go after vegetarians are like, like they loved it, right? He was, he was hilarious.

Did you see that video? Yeah. Oh, it's hilarious, yeah. Yeah, Glenn Beck is like, this is, I. I'd eat this. This is great. I can't tell the difference. And you went from like just, you know, David Chang and a couple restaurants in 2016 to now. It's, they're everywhere. And see, the surprising thing there is that they've discovered that conservatives will like something if it's quality.

Well, we don't care about the ideology. If it tastes as good or better than meat, I'll definitely eat it. It's just like we've been saying for years, give me an alternative to an SUV. to gasoline powered engines that is viable all the time where I can, you know, I don't have to completely turn my life upside down to use it. Yeah. And we'll use it. That's what Elon Musk has tried to do, right, with Tesla. Yep.

You know, we have one of the producers here at the Blaze who has installed the solar panels and Tesla batteries in their house. And every month he sends me a text. He's like, check this out. It's just his electricity bill. It's like 10 cents. I like legitimately like 10 cents for the month. Provide an alternative.

We'll use it. He liked it. He likes it better. And it works great for him. It might not work if you're in some cloudy area. I don't know how, you know, like there's certain differences in different places, but he's in Texas. And it works great for him. He basically pays nothing for electricity now that he's paid for the system.

Wow. And so those things, I think that's how you win these battles. You don't win the battle by saying, well, you know, you're a bad person. person if you don't do the thing that I want. The same way, by the way, when we talk about the COVID thing that we're dealing with now, you're never going to win the battle by screaming at someone not wearing a mask in a grocery store. Like if you believe the thing... That doesn't help the cause at all.

Try to convince people, try to show them, you know, lead by example, be cool. You know, talk to somebody about like why you think this is, you know, is the right thing. But if it's not, you know, you can do your own thing. That sort of stuff is much more effective than screaming at people in a grocery store. that's insanity. Yet that's the left's approach to everything. Every one of these issues. You know what?

You're a bad person if you use too much electricity. You're a bad person if you eat me. You're a bad. If you don't wear a mask. You're bad. You're bad. You're bad. I'm sorry.

We see you. You're not that great. You can't, you know, if I read it, you know, in the Bible, I mean, people have a tough enough time listening to that. And that's the ultimate authority. I think I can listen to you because of your stupid Instagram comments. Because you've shouldn't. I've named me at a beach.

Doesn't work on anybody, does it? No. That's why this approach from, what's his name? The inventor of the Impossible Burger? Pat Brown. Pat Brown. Okay. So that's why that's such a great approach.

It's a great approach. Yeah, make a good product and people will just gravitate toward it. Yeah. I have a decent amount of people. As you know, I'm a vegetarian. I will say Glenn Beck does come after vegetarians. Me. Almost every day.

Almost every day. But most people in my life don't, you know, don't, aren't idiots like me. And so they eat, they eat whatever they want. No, she's not a vegetarian, is she? She's not, but she loves that impossible burger, man. A lot of them, because of course, I order it, because I like it. They try it. And then they wind up just ordering it because they like it. Yeah. Right. So that's how you win. That's how you win that battle. You're not going to win that battle by gilting people and putting scary videos on the internet. And, you know, that is not how that happens. I think it's a great, it was just, it was something. nice approach to hear. It was nice to hear a freaking person in business. Say something

good about the free market for once. And I'm sorry, what show was that part of? Stu Does America. Stu does America. Where would I find that? Well, you can go to YouTube, search for Stu. Okay. And I'll be the first one there and watch every episode for free or sign up on podcast. Fascinating. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

And don't forget, rate us on iTunes. It's Pat and Stu for Glenn. Triple-8-727B-E-C. Anthony Fauci says, that if America doesn't reopen soon, it will suffer irreparable damage. Totally reasonable.

Yes, I agree. True. And totally reasonable. And thank you for finally saying it. Yeah. And it's smart for him to say. It is smart for him to say. I wish you would have said it before this, but that's, I mean, I can't argue with that. That's, that's, he's not, I mean,

he has been saying all along. I'm the medical guy. I'm the one who tells you. what to do medically. I'm not the economy guy. Although now he is saying we can't stay locked down forever because it will destroy the economy. And it will. It will. Of course it will.

And that's why, you know, if you want to look at this in a positive light of what we've attempted to do here, you could look at it like a panic room, right? Someone's breaking into your house. You go into your panic room. You lock the doors down. You wait for police to come. But that's a temporary solution. It is not an, it's not an extensive solution. If you stay in your panic room for the rest of your,

life, you eventually just die, right? Like, that's not a good, it's not a good idea. It's a temporary horrible, it's a horrible solution to a problem that is massive. Locking yourself in a room in your home with no windows is not a good solution for almost any situation. Just one situation it's a good solution for, which is there's someone breaking into your house with a gun. This is the same thing that we have attempted here, whether, you know, you can argue whether you like the results or not. I think everyone understands that it's terrible for the economy. It does have long-lasting repercussions, and it will be damaging the longer it goes on.

You can't let this stuff go forever. And places like L.A. County in particular, even New York is opening up. L.A. County's like, August 20, 26. We're going to start. That's got a 25% capacity at restaurants. I'll say, wait a minute. I can't believe how many people live and the conservative movement, too, are dealing with life in L.A. County right now,

that's got to be, yeah, that's got to be hell. Yes. And it will be hell again if they shut us down again, if there's a second wave. That's what I'm a little nervous about, is the second wave if it comes. And it might.

There might be a second wave. And then, you know, they will insist once again that we shut down the economy again. And we've got to be ready to say, no, not this time. We're not doing that. Yeah, that was one of the initial solutions

they were talking about, which was you lock it down first, get the disease down low. And then every time you have a new outbreak, you just lock it down again for another month. And you're like, so you're like two months in in regular life and then back for a month in lockdown and back and forth until we have a vaccine. I can't, that's just screwing with people's heads. Yeah. I don't know that you could deal with that. I don't know how society would would handle something like that, especially American society. You know, like they did a lot of this stuff.

We wouldn't handle that well. Yeah. Like there's a lot of places that attempted things like this. Asia, but it's a totally different culture, right? Like, it's a culture that is much more used to dealing with the government telling you you're not leaving your home for a certain amount of time. This is

totally foreign to the American culture. And, look, we gave it this time. It was obviously a serious thing. I mean, these numbers are higher than almost anyone predicted. But still, like, we did that. We need to find a way going forward. We gave you

your time to prepare. There's a lot of sacrifice has already been done. We have to be able to go back to normal life at some level, even if it's with some precautions. It's only sensible. And even our overlord. Anthony Fauci is saying that. This is the Glenn Beck program.
