Welcome to the podcast. We have some amazing stories of media malpractice today, including Chuck Todd, who, I mean, it was so bad. They actually had to apologize for it, but you need to hear how bad the edit was that they made. Try to make someone in the Trump administration look bad. We also have some interesting information on UFOs. And there's, you know, it's maybe the most interesting part of it is where it's coming from. I mean, it's the government saying it's true. We'll get into that as well.
Well, also, we're going to talk about the Tara Reid interview with Megan Kelly that happened over the weekend.
I think we have Megan Kelly on tomorrow's show to talk about it.
But there's more, you know, she came off as pretty credible.
What do you think about it?
And also, Carl Manky, he's the owner of a barbershop in Michigan.
He is saying, you know what?
I can't stay home anymore.
We've got to open up, even though they're supposed to stay home no matter what.
He's facing a legal showdown as well over this, trying to put food on the table for his family.
and make ends meet.
And we'll get into that as well today.

Here's the podcast.
You're listening to.
On Friday, I took a show we were doing lightly.
I happened to believe what Carl Sagan was true.
If we're alone in the universe, it's a colossal waste of space.
I don't believe we're alone in the universe,
but I'm also not somebody who's like,
we got to go to area 51 and get those bodies and resuscitate them.
I don't know what I believe on UFOs.
Some of them, I'm like, I don't know, could be,
something the governments are developing.
You know, I don't know.
I'm not an expert in this.
Well, we had two experts on Friday's program on our television show,
the Glenn Beck exclusive on Blaze TV.
And it was hair-raising.
First guy was with the intelligence community.
I think he was director of intelligence for Clinton and George W.
Bush. The other guy was the man appointed to the role to look into UFOs by General Petraeus.
And I asked them at the very beginning, I said, why is this all of a sudden coming out and why is the
Pentagon releasing stuff? And they said, well, the Pentagon actually hasn't really released
the stuff until this week. They have come out and they've said three pieces of film that you have
seen are legitimate and they have no idea what they are. They are officially unidentified flying
objects. The reason why they're doing this is really important. And I'll get to that here
in a second. Let me show you one clip. This is the one that came out early 2000s. This was after 9-11.
and one of our ships caught this particular UFO,
and it doesn't look like anything here,
but what it does is remarkable.
It is something of the first time that we had caught an unidentified flying object
on AWAC on ship radar,
The best radars we have, it locked onto this, both the ship and the plane.
The instrumentation on the fighter jets that were dispatched to it also locked on to this.
And you had, I think, eight eyewitnesses as well who were in the jets.
So this is the first time we had documented where the people and the instruments all said the same thing.
and the reason why this is so significant is because we were war gaming and this was engaging almost in a dog fight.
I had not heard this part of the story, but I had heard that there are these coordinates when they say, we're going to dog fight.
They dogfight over an area.
and then there's like a safe zone.
It's outside of the war gaming area.
And I had heard that when we had locked on to it and started to really get close, it went to the safe zone, which to me would say, you know, we don't want to fight.
We're just, we're not here to fight.
We're not hostile.
That's not what happened.
What happened is it went to the exact coordinates of the.
center of the dog fight, the top secret coordinates that only the the fighters had been given
in a briefing. So and I said to him, what are the odds that that was, you know, by chance? And they said,
zero, zero. It was a message. And the guy from the DIA said, it was a very clear message.
Now, in the interview, I found out why it's very clear and why this is starting to happen now.
Why are we starting to see more of this stuff and talk about it?
Because they said things have changed.
Not only can we verify now, but they are targeting and examining and dogfighting, if you will,
in very aggressive manners, our ships, our military, and we assume it's happening to others,
but it's definitely happening with the United States, with our military and our nuclear missile silos.
They have been tracked.
This one that I just showed you, if you're watching Blaze TV, they tracked it for six days, for six days.
Here's another one.
this is can you go to the this one see this one over this is about 50 feet in diameter and it's flying
just over the surface of the ocean they're going to try to capture it here okay now the reason
why they're celebrating it is traveling at about 2,000 miles an hour and they're a 50 foot
object moving that fast hard to grab onto but they got it
Now watch.
There's no system of propulsion.
It stops at one point.
Dead stops and hovers.
And then it goes from zero to six thousand in two seconds.
So I said, so why, so why are we?
Why is the Pentagon telling us this?
They said because we don't know if it's a threat.
But it has to be thought of as a threat until we know.
what it is.
And they are convinced it does not come from Earth because there's no technology that's
even close to this.
We're the leader in this kind of technology.
But even if somebody else was surpassing us with secret research, everything that they
would be producing would be so radically different because of the advancement of this
technology.
This is a hundred times more than what we could.
even imagine at this point.
And apparently we have pieces of some of these things and the alloy is not from around
these parts.
And they think that we need to wake the American people up because we are being probed.
Pat Gray joins us, Pat.
What do you think of that?
It makes me question, I mean, if they're that advanced, they already know what they can do, right?
Why would they be probing us, testing us?
They already know.
I mean, I think it's a good thing that we've not been destroyed already.
He said that's the message that he thinks they're trying to send.
Don't even, don't mess with us.
They were like, there's no way they could get those coordinates.
Those are the most sophisticated encryption devices we have.
There's no way somebody could get those coordinates.
And they had them.
and he said, by the way they're dog fighting,
and he said, it is happening every day all the time.
Really?
And he said, yeah.
And he said, the way they are pursuing us is hostile in nature,
but trying to show us, you don't have a chance.
You don't have a chance.
Whatever maneuver you do, we beat you.
Huh.
Which is, again, if they wanted to shoot down our planes, they could have,
but they haven't.
so wouldn't that yeah i don't know wouldn't that tend to make you believe that their
their intent is not hostile it would for me yeah i would hope that they've watched star trek and
they're you know doing the you know what is the united federation
prim directive and the yeah the prime directive prohibits them yeah interfering in our in our
right and they and they're only going to help us uh you know please suck all of our politicians
up into the sky please yes it would be fantastic
Yes.
And suck the virus up in the sky while you're at it.
Suck that back up with you too.
That would be great.
Yeah.
Thank you.
So bizarre.
Bizarre.
Really weird, but really fascinating.
Going from zero to six thousand.
And you would think outside of the atmosphere and since they got here from somewhere else
and there's nowhere in the neighborhood that's inhabited,
they must have better technology even than we're seeing here.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, way better.
Have to.
Yeah.
Have to.
But I mean, there's nothing that there's no alloy.
There's no metal.
There's nothing, let alone bags of water that can take that kind of G-force.
Yeah.
Nothing.
Oh.
Yes.
And they said that there's no.
I mean, when you hear these guys talking, you have just, if you're not a member of the Blaze, subscribe to Blaze TV, there's a 10-minute clip on my YouTube page.
But watch this.
It is absolutely incredible.
Tanya, I said to her on Friday, I said, it just did a show on a.
We've got to watch it with the kids.
We got busy.
We didn't watch it.
And I said to, I said to Tanya, she said, oh, it's like midnight, 1230.
And she said, we didn't watch that UFO thing.
I really wanted to see it.
And I said, I'm just going to watch it here as we fall asleep.
You know, watch.
She started watching it became wide awake and was like, whoa, whoa, way.
wait a minute what i think we should watch this with the kids uh it's it's phenomenal it's phenomenal
really and so the pentagon must be somewhat concerned that they are in fact there might be hostile
hostile intent there though right it sounds like it sounds like as they said as they said as they said
because i tried to get them to say a few things because it was clear what they were saying um you know
that it wasn't from here and the way they were talking about the dog fights and everything else.
And I said, so how do we know if, how do we know the intent?
And they kept saying, we don't know how it even works.
We don't know what it is.
So we have to assume it's a, as warriors and protectors, we have to assume that it is hostile.
They said, it's like if you locked your doors and.
windows, put on all the alarms, had guards around your house, and in the morning, you woke up,
and there were muddy footprints across your carpet.
And everything, no one reported anything.
You would say, okay, guys, what happened?
And you'd go, that's weird.
But if it kept happening in muddy footprints, you would say, guys, there's something in my
house.
I don't know what it is.
I know it sounds crazy, but I have to look at this as a threat to my children.
why is it here? What is it?
Yeah.
And what is it that's the way they're looking at him?
What is it that they have pieces of that they're analyzing and trying to figure out?
Didn't say.
So you don't know if it's aircraft or the allies.
No, they said they had the, they had pieces of the metal of the alloys.
And they said it's not, it's got an extra neutron.
It's not from these parts.
Wow.
And they don't, they said they don't even know how to reproduce it.
Does that mean that something one of them has crashed here?
They didn't say.
They wouldn't answer.
I said, well, wait, wait, what is it?
How is it?
And they, they wouldn't say.
Mm.
They weren't really, they weren't intentionally.
They didn't seem like they were trying to throw anybody off or they just were very, very good at not telling secrets.
You know?
Wow.
Yeah.
They're just good at this.
And I have to tell you, it reminded me and tell me if this isn't.
exactly from the War of the World's broadcast in 1939.
In War of the Worlds, Orson Wells opened up that broadcast with this paragraph.
Listen to this.
We now know that in the early years of the 20th century, this world was being watched closely
by intelligences far greater than man's, and yet as mortal as his own, we now know that as human
beings busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinized and studied.
Perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinize the transient creatures
that swarm and multiply in a drop of water.
With infinite complacence, people went to and fro the earth about their little affair,
serene in the assurance of their dominion over this small spinning fragment of solar driftwood,
which by chance or design man has inherited out of the dark mystery of time and space.
Yet across an immense ethereal gulf,
minds that are to our minds as ours hour to the beasts in the jungle,
intellects, vast, cool, and unsympathetic,
regarded this earth with envious eyes,
and slowly and surely drew their plans against us.
I don't know about the last couple of lines,
but everything else is exactly what we're experiencing right now.
Last week was a very big day or a very big week for UFO supporters
and should have been front page news because for the first time,
Pentagon verified, yes, they're out there.
and we have no idea what they are.
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
Several years ago, I talked about run from your church.
If your church, church is teaching social justice.
Run from your church.
Social justice does not exist in God's world.
There is only two kinds of justice.
There's God's justice, which is absolute, permanent, and fair and just.
Then there's man's justice.
Man's justice goes from anywhere from, you know, Stalin and the Red trials to honest people gathering together, trying to really find the answer, putting it through a court of law, and come what may, that's what happened.
Okay.
But that's not perfect.
It's not perfect.
Social justice is, yeah, well, if he didn't do this, he did something else.
It doesn't matter what we get him on.
He's a bad guy.
they're good. No matter what they've done, they're good because they've had problems in their lives.
And so we'll get this bad guy. Yeah, I know he didn't do this, but he's done something else.
That's where the mentality is with Donald Trump. They don't care what he actually did. They just got to get him on something.
That's what they did with Michael Flynn. They didn't care what the truth was. They just needed to discredit him and get him out because social justice demands.
it. Mike Pence, you know, last week the story broke that he was delivering these empty boxes of PPEs. No, if you actually look at the videotape, no, he wasn't. No, he wasn't. But the New York Times and everybody else reported that those were empty boxes. No, they weren't. You didn't even check because it doesn't matter. Empty box. I don't know. I heard it. I didn't check. I mean, that's probably what they do anyway. And if they didn't do that, they're guilty of something else anyway.
this is dangerous.
This is why you do know that,
do you know that Joe Biden,
if he were in college,
he would be found guilty of rape
under his Title IX standard
that he and Obama put in.
His life would be over
because of the standards he said
you have to uphold in colleges and universities.
his life would be over.
So why isn't anyone talking about, wait a minute, this is what he did in Title IX.
And if we don't agree with him here, what about all those poor kids that are in college that are being accused and convicted of rape socially with social justice?
Yeah, they don't go to jail.
Oh, well, you don't go to jail, but your life is ruined.
But nobody's talking about that.
Why?
Because it's connected to politics.
Do you know that the majority of Americans still believe the now debunk dossier from steel and say that that was real?
That had real stuff in it about Trump and Russia.
No, it didn't.
No, it didn't.
But now 53% of Americans believe that this discredited document had real stuff in it.
No, that was real.
No.
No.
and you know why they believe it because they want to believe it
and the media enables them
the media divides us let me give you another story
there is a there's a story now and this is the headline
comes from the Daily Mail shocking video shows white cop
repeatedly beating a black man for not social distancing
this is in Jersey City
the police officer who is white
repeatedly hits the man who is African American while he's pinned to the ground.
Now activists are calling for the cops to be fired.
The film was,
the clip was filmed by a witness captured by a man trying to raise his arms to protect his face.
According to the activists who shared the activists,
who shared the details of the incident,
20 cops showed up because they weren't social distancing.
Well, if you actually watched the whole video,
no, it wasn't that they were not social distancing.
They were in a brawl.
the cops came in to break it up now i'm not defending this one cop but this isn't about white cop
comes for social distancing and beats man half to death that's not what it is this is an out of control
group of people cops are called they try to break it up one cop goes too far maybe maybe not you'd
have to decide to me it looks pretty bad for the cop that's a totally different story but they have to
deepest divided. Here's one. Try this. The, the, uh, the opinion in the New York times,
how Sweden is dealing with coronavirus. Swedes aren't battling coronavirus with broad
lockdowns. No, President Trump has described the pandemic as our war with the invisible
enemy, the coronavirus. That war metaphor is wrong and misleading. Okay, wait a minute. So you're
holding up Sweden saying that they didn't put any of these draconian things.
They kept their businesses open.
That's the exact opposite of what you're saying that Donald Trump is doing, which you're
saying he's not doing enough of.
And by the way, Stu, how Sweden stack up next to us?
We do pretty well, actually, against them.
Our numbers and our results have, I would say, been better in a pretty significant way.
Yeah, well, let me just give you from Johns Hopkins University, an authoritative voice.
The United States has stronger performance in preventing the deaths than Sweden, number one, Belgium, Spain, Italy, and the United Kingdom, France, and the Netherlands.
But 38% of Americans think that we are doing far worse.
Why is that?
Because the media has one goal.
Now, a third of Americans may refuse a coronavirus vaccine, says a new poll.
Well, you don't think they're going to let you walk around without a virus, do you?
Or without a vaccine.
And if you have a vaccine and you won't take it, you're an immediate anti-vaxxer.
Well, why is it that people don't trust the vaccines?
Because we don't trust the press when they're debunking things.
We don't trust the press to tell us the truth.
And we certainly don't trust the government.
Bill Maher said about Joe Biden's accuser.
It leaves us in a world where Republicans don't care about this stuff.
So it's just a unilateral weapon that's used against Democrats.
Trump rides the bus with Billy Bush and we throw Al Franken under it.
I don't know if you've noticed, but America's turned into a failed state that has done a worse job keeping its citizens alive during the pandemic than Cambodia.
Unbelievable.
To me, that's a little more important than Tara Reeve, Tara Reid achieving closure.
Wow. Okay. Now, why does this matter? Well, because there's two ways when people in power have truth and it's different than the actual truth.
There's only a couple ways you can go. You can do your part to try to convince people. You can check your own credibility and say, okay, so what is it that we have done that makes people believe this about?
us but the media hasn't done that and neither has Washington so okay uh social media have they
checked themselves nope nope they've doubled down now they've got teams of people from the
institutions we don't trust editing us the the head of product of YouTube says that people in
their basement, they can't have opinions on smart stuff, on news.
What do they know?
Excuse me?
You built your platform for those people.
You gave people a voice.
And now you're shutting them down.
Because you don't like the truth.
Because somebody that the rest of America doesn't trust says to you, they've got to come
to us for that news.
Oh.
Okay, so they can check themselves, but they're not doing that.
Or they can start to become draconian on any other voice and silence those voices.
Well, they've already started, but remember, it's suggest shove, shoot.
Now, we're already at the shove part.
They're now demonetizing.
They're now calling you all kinds of names.
they're making you into a pariah.
They're doing everything they can to shove you into silence.
The next one is, well, this story.
On April 24th, Natali Lev Veda,
a chief emergency medical service training base for Russian astronauts
fell out of a window at the hospital she was being treated for
for COVID-19 infection, and she died.
Next, the top doctor at a hospital in Siberia fell out of a window during a conference call at her hospital and died May 1st.
The next day, an ambulance doctor fell from a second-story window in the hospital where he had work, where he was given treatment for COVID-19.
Russian authorities are investigating all three incidences.
Really?
Are they, they have a problem with the windows in Russia?
The first doctor was on a conference call with the top Russian health official about plans of turning one of the buildings of her medical facility into a coronavirus ward.
She vehemently disagreed with the idea and then fell out of the window.
The other one posted a video online the day he was admitted for the coronavirus care, complaining that he had been forced to work, despite
contracting the disease.
He then later retracted his comments on video and then fell out the window.
People for some reason just think these things don't happen.
They think that Obama plotting with Joe Biden, the Hillary team, with our former attorney
general and heads of intelligence, James Clapper, they, they just, they just,
just think that there's no way he would ever do this.
But they'll believe that from any Republican,
but no way he would do it.
They're people, gang.
They're people who like power.
They're people who will do anything to run for president and become president.
They're not normal.
No normal human being says,
I'm willing to put my family through this.
You have to really believe in something.
And so what is it you believe?
leave in? Well, Barack Obama believed that America was not a great place the way it was, and he needed to be
fundamentally transformed. And he was the first president that was actually able to do something about it,
and he wasn't going to have somebody change all of the policies. So when he left, yes, it makes sense that
he would do that feeling justified because they all believed the same thing, and they all believe
the other people were stupid.
You need to find sources of truth.
You need to learn how to do your own homework.
You need to not accept things that people, if you happen to agree with me, like me,
do not accept them on face value.
Do your own homework.
A, I can and have gotten it wrong at times.
B, I want you to call me out.
when we have it wrong because it keeps me honest.
No one is calling the media out that they care about.
That's the problem.
Government and the media have become one.
They're not afraid of you.
You must let your voice be heard.
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
And don't forget, rate us on iTunes.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
It is Monday.
I can't wait to talk to this guy.
He is the owner of Carl Menke's Barber and Beauty Shop.
He's in OASO Michigan.
He has been told that he has to close his business.
He said, and I want to quote him,
he said, I'm not trying to be a scoff law,
which is one of my favorite words from the Prohibition era.
I'm just trying to make a living.
I tried for unemployment.
I was denied twice on unemployment.
I haven't seen any one of those other checks from the government.
So last week, he opened up and he was told you have to close down.
Don't come back here Monday.
I want to give you what the court said or what the governor's office said.
Mr. Manky has been given every opportunity to voluntarily comply with the governor's executive order
in the order of Michigan's Department of Health and Services Director.
As a result of his continued operation, today his business was deemed.
an imminent danger, an imminent danger to public health in order to be shut down by the DHS director.
If he refuses, the Department of Attorney General will request an order from the county circuit
court on Monday to close his business. Mr. Manke's actions are not a display of harmless
civil disobedience. His actions are counterproductive to the collective effort. Businesses and
communities everywhere have made to slow the spread of COVID-19. And by opening the doors to his
business. He's putting the lives of many more
Michiganers at
risk.
He said to us on Friday, he was
opening up, he had no intention of keeping
his doors closed. Let's talk to him now
on this Monday morning.
How are you, sir?
Very well, go ahead.
It's great to talk to you.
Did you open your business today?
Okay. I did. I opened my business.
Tell me.
I had six or eight
truly people, you know,
but I was respectful.
pieceman in my shop at that time.
I don't want to...
He told me at that time.
The governor had to handpick those people.
He says nobody else would have wanted it to do.
So, Carl, you said you're not trying to poke fun at the law.
You're not trying to make light of this situation.
Tell me about that.
Legislative brand for 28 days.
She defied them.
And no, you know, six weeks, I cannot change.
I went here by myself, stand my ground.
When I've made the statement that I, or Jesus comes.
So, Carl, what do you expect?
They said on Friday that if you don't comply, they will charge you with contempt of court,
and they'll close you down today.
So far, he's been able to hold them off those kind of decisions at all.
He ate pretty soon.
And, you know, I've not even during this, it was funny because the Democrat Party at that time,
equal rights. Now it's
I don't get it.
And it's hardly my country anymore in so many different ways, you know.
You seeing younger people supporting you?
Oh, heaven's yes.
I got them sitting right here. I'm looking at them.
You know, these guys are all, yeah, guys, you're probably about eighth grade.
Keep your distance, Carl.
So Carl, you talk about the right to, that you feel
trampled on.
She would say, I would assume,
she would say you're trampling on people's
rights to be safe.
How would you respond to that?
Just that they stay in there. I believe that people
created, I got hands up. You know, if they can do it
in the Walmart stores, they can do it in the Kmart stores,
they can do it in the grocery stores.
You know, then I believe that I'm being
discriminated against if they think that my
or that they can't handle this.
You know, so I believe that as our marriage, right,
she's not my mother. Yesterday, she'd probably
I get this time. The, the
Washington administration kind of chides her little party and she's going to
How is she perceived, how is she perceived, Carl, up?
Is your net wide enough to be able to talk to all kinds of different people?
And how do you think people in Michigan are reacting to her?
I had a group out here yesterday, or a day before yesterday, and there was a whole,
I don't believe that she's getting the support that she is hoping to get.
I think that the, you know, that the people in Michigan, you know, we're a pretty independent bunch here.
You know, we're in a thing, but, yeah, so I'm not going to live my life in fear.
There's enough land, you know, inadvertently just walking out of my house any given day.
Matter of fact, I went through the park in the day, and I'm not diminishing any of the,
but I do think, you know, with the precautions that are laid out for the Walmarts, the K-Mars, the big box stores.
You remind me of my father.
It is good to talk to you, sir.
Well, it's good to talk to you.
Thank you so much, Carl.
Yeah, I've been following your career for years.
Yeah, I'm behind you.
Oh, well, thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
And we're behind you, Carl Manky,
owner of Carl Manky's barber and beauty shop up in Michigan.
I love the guy.
You know, I do too.
I've been looking forward to this all weekend.
What he just said,
I want you to recognize the language that he just used
and how it probably resonated with you.
He kept saying, you know, there's this sense that I have.
I don't know.
I'm just applying common sense.
There's this sense that I have.
That is the revolutionary phrase that rocked the world.
That is what Thomas Payne wrote about.
Common sense.
There's this common sense that just says this isn't right.
That I have these rights.
And you can't as the king tell me.
that I can't do business or I can't do it this way or I can't trade my goods or I can't live
over here and mind my own business.
