Starting point is 00:00:28 just pleaded guilty. And first he said, I want to plead guilty without actually saying I'm guilty. And the judge said, well, you can't really do that. Okay, that I'm guilty. I did it all. And the judge, wait, wait, after all of this, now you're admitting that all of this is true? Yeah. Do you know what that means?

Illegal immigrant gangs have literally taken over several apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado.

We don't know how many millions of illegals are in this country right now, let alone how many more are going to get. through before we finally seal the border. And if she wins, they're not going to.

You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck program Well, tell him to wait for a minute Have somebody from I'll get to it in a second
Starting point is 00:02:51 First let me tell you that Hunter Biden's trial in California Ended before it started yesterday Because he was charged with nine tax charges And he was facing You know, a long, long time in prison And he decided, you know what, let's just cut to the chase I did it, Your Honor. I did it.
Starting point is 00:03:14 And he said, you know, after the last five years where I've really sobered up, I realize that I have to make amends. And so I'm just going to, I'm just going to tell you that I did it. The judge said, wait, wait, wait, wait. So you're agreeing that you committed every element of every crime? Yes, yes, Your Honor, you did. I do. I do because I really feel I've learned my lesson and I should pay for my crimes.
Starting point is 00:03:47 So after five years of denying all of this, putting us through this horrendous ordeal, the first son comes out yesterday and says, yeah, yeah, I did it. What? Hang on. What's his name? Who is this? Who is this? Hello?
Starting point is 00:04:15 Yes, hello. Yes. Yes, Alan Newman. Alan Newman. Yes, I'm one of a hundred Biden's attorneys heard you talking about the story and wanted to contribute to the conversation. Okay. Make sure that you got two facts accurately.
Starting point is 00:04:30 You seem to be skeptical about what went on yesterday. Well, it seems kind of odd that, you know, he spent five years saying that he's, he didn't do any of these things. And then he goes to trial and he says, all right, all right, I did it. Yes. Yes. Well, he's guilty of these crimes. And he wants to take responsibility.
Starting point is 00:04:58 He what? Hello. He wants to take responsibility for a saga. Are you okay? Are you okay? Or you're... A hundred Biden has spent his entire adult years trying to make good for the things that he did.
Starting point is 00:05:17 And he's now in a time of his life is season where he's able to do that and we just think it's a wonderful thing. Oh, wait a minute. Hold on just a second. What are you laughing about? I mean... Look, we wanted to make sure the legal system
Starting point is 00:05:38 was treated with the respective of the respect to the system. Are you all? right. The American people deserve the truth. So this So this is all on the up and up. He feels really, really bad. Hunter Biden is a loving problem.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Hang on just a second. I'm talking to Hunter Biden's attorney. Case you haven't heard, he suddenly decided that he was guilty on all charges. This doesn't have anything to do with him just counting on his dad or Kamala to
Starting point is 00:06:44 to pardon him, does it? Absolutely not, Glenn. We've never been. All right, we thank Hunter Biden's attorney for joining us today's program. No, no, no, I mean, I don't think that's a problem. Hang up the phone. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:15 All right. So, so we, have wasted all of this money, all of this time. How many times do they have to really honestly lie to you? How many times do they have to lie to you? He didn't do any of those tax crimes. He was absolutely innocent. The laptop wasn't real. He wasn't working for the Chinese. Dad had no idea. Nobody in the family was enriching themselves. How many times does this administration, does Kamala Harris and the Democrats and the media, how many times do they need to lie to America? Look them dead in the eye and lie to them before they wake up. How many millions
Starting point is 00:08:10 of dollars have we wasted? How much airtime has been wasted? How many families have been driven apart because of these lies. And now spit in your face? Oh yeah, I did them. Second spit in your face? And I'm not going to pay for it. I'm going to get away with it.
Starting point is 00:08:35 Yeah, yeah, I'm going to go to prison for a very long time. It's not just the lies. It's the fact that they they just think you're this stupid. you would never allow a friend to do this to you. You would certainly never let a guardian do this to you.
Starting point is 00:09:02 You would never let an employee do this to you. Why do you allow this to continue to happen? Why, America? Why? Do you know what they're doing right now? They're trump-proofing the DOJ. This is a story from John Solomon. and just the news. They're hiring, using a hiring authority that is outside of the normal competitive process for hiring career officials.
Starting point is 00:09:35 Normally, to be hired as a career civil service job, you have to list it in USAJ jobs.gov. Then they have several candidates. They go through them. They go through a competitive process to choose these people. And then the DOJ hires from that. But the DOJ is using a process outside of that, the non-competitive process. And they're hiring hundreds of attorneys into areas that are going to be vital to protecting the Biden-Harris administration policies from a Trump administration or another future administration. So what they've done is they've taken everything that they wanted, and they are codifying it now,
Starting point is 00:10:18 by putting attorneys all around it that Trump cannot fire. I got to tell you, if Trump gets in, I really want him to utter these words. Just for me, it may not make a difference to anybody else, but just for me, I really want him to say, I've dealt in real estate my entire life. So I'm pretty good at speculating housing prices and what's going to be a value and what's not. You know that $5 million house that you have in the Washington area? It's going to be worth dog crap very soon because I am firing so many people. Housing is going to be plentiful in the tri-state area.
Starting point is 00:11:09 Jeez. He is going to have to fire so many people. And they're going to fight. and they're going to say, oh, this is my favorite word. Drakonian. I love that word because I use it every day. Don't you use draconians, do, almost every day in your regular life? Absolutely, Glenn.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Make sure I use it five, ten times a day. Yeah, it's draconian. It's draconian. You mean like Dracula? They're already sucking the blood out of our neck. What are you talking about? Anyway, so we have that to, to, look forward to. By the way,
Starting point is 00:11:49 a top Department of Justice spokesperson in New York was caught on a hidden camera ripping Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan District attorney, you know the one that went after Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Now, this is the chief spokesperson for the southern part of New York. This is New York City. Chief spokesperson for the Justice Department and the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's Office, okay? He was
Starting point is 00:12:22 you know, trying to, I don't know, romance a woman and impress a woman, he says. And he said, I got to tell you, this case that Bragg brought up it's nonsense, it's nonsense. He said he'd known
Starting point is 00:12:39 Bragg for 15 years, previously worked with him, described the unprecedented hush money case against Trump as a perversion of justice. Listen to the bit of this tape from Stephen Crowder's people. You don't have the cuts in front of me. Just play the cuts of the district attorney.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Or the spokesperson. I think they're a little mystified as to what which clips you're looking for here, Glenn. I know. I'm sorry. We have a disconnect between the meetings sometimes and the show. Sorry about that. Okay, so he goes on and he says, you know, this case is nonsense. This is a perversion of justice.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Then he goes on to say, you know, he just wants to be something. I don't know, a mayor. I'm not sure what he wants to be. But I know he's just not happy being the DA of New York County. Before he decided to prosecute Trump, did you know who he was? Well, you do now. So he said, wait a minute, hang on. Hang on just a second. Do we have, do we have his attorney on the phone?
Starting point is 00:13:56 We have his attorney on the phone. Because what he said was he didn't, he was just trying to impress a girl. And it was not, it was, it was nothing that, hello, who is this? Hi, Glenn, Alan Newman. Alan, you're back. Yes. arc line was as you mentioned, just
Starting point is 00:14:22 trying to impress a girl. So when he said it's a perversion of justice. Perversion of justice? He didn't. I came up with that one, yeah. He didn't mean that. He was just trying to impress a girl. He was just, well, he
Starting point is 00:14:43 meant it, but well, he was trying to impress, and we've all said things to the ladies. Well, we've never Glad me. Every once in a while, we've all stepped down that road. No.
Starting point is 00:14:59 He said at the federal level where I work, there's a 90-day rule where you can't make any decisions on cases that are going to affect an election within 90 days of the election. But the rule doesn't apply at the state level because the state level, it's like the effing wild west. They're like idiots. They don't care. They're all political. To put it mildly, it's a mockery of justice. this whole thing is disgusting. They're just out to get Trump.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Go ahead. It's travesty. It's a travesty. It's a sham. Yeah. It's a mockery. It's a travis. It's a travis sham.
Starting point is 00:15:37 It's a maquery. Okay. Well, he apparently is back in the good graces of everybody because he said, I regretfully made some statements in private in a social setting that don't reflect my view. about two local and state prosecutions. So I guess it's all right. Thank you very much, Mr. Duman. Preborn, I spoke to a 89-year-old woman.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Her name is Eva Edel, and she is a woman who's now facing 10 years in prison because she peacefully protested outside of an abortion clinic. That was here in the United States. Molok demands blood, and this is the god of the left. It is a blood cult. I don't know if they realize they're worshipping ancient gods or not. I think some do, but I think the majority just go along with it. They have no idea what they're doing. But evil is covering the earth. We must pierce that.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Preborn is the largest pro-life organization in the country, and this may be the last time. I can talk to you about them, this period in the next six months, because if the left wins in Kamala is the president, I can guarantee you at the end of her term, there won't be any pro-life talk. It won't be allowed. People like this 89-year-old woman who's facing 10 years in prison because she peacefully protested, that's going to be the norm. please stand with pre-born right now. They provide free ultrasounds for moms,
Starting point is 00:17:23 which it makes it much more likely that mom is going to choose life. Then if she feels alone, it doesn't have any way to, you know, pay for the baby and care for the baby. They're there for two years. Would you be willing to give $28? Just $28? That'll provide one ultrasound.
Starting point is 00:17:40 You could save one baby every month. You just give them $28 a month. You give anything you can. a dollar, a widow's might. Dial pound 250, say the keyword baby. Take a stand. Pound 250, keyword baby. Or go to preborn.com slash Beck.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Preborn.com slash back. Sponsored by Preborn. Now back to the podcast. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. Now, you know, the first half hour of this broadcast, I might have been a little sarcastic about how much I admire the honesty of the the Biden crew. But I wasn't being serious.
Starting point is 00:18:28 I don't admire that at all. And I don't know if people picked up on that at all. But let me tell you a couple of other things that, you know, they've lied about. You know that Inflation Reduction Act? The Inflation Reduction Act, which we told you was the Green New Deal. And they said, how dare you, you conspiracy? You're a danger.
Starting point is 00:18:51 You've got to be put. in little prison. Little prison, not real prison, but speech prison. Oh, wait, you're a Republican. No prison prison. The darkest prison we can find for you. And so it was all about inflation. Well, here's Joe Biden about what it was really all about. Cut one. My investments, that through my investments, the most significant climate change law ever. and by the way, it is a $369 billion bill. It's called the, we should have named it what it was, but at any rate. Oh, I don't even think he knows where he is, but I'm glad he has his fingers on the nuclear buttons.
Starting point is 00:19:38 I think everybody feels a little better knowing that this morning. Again, that is called sarcasm. So Biden now has just admitted that, yeah, it had nothing to do. with inflation. It was the biggest Green Act ever. Oh, okay. Okay. All right. Yeah, you probably should have named it what it was,
Starting point is 00:20:01 but here's why you didn't, because you know the American people would have been against that. So you lied about what it was, and then you lied by naming it because you knew you couldn't win. America, when you say enough is enough? When do you
Starting point is 00:20:17 say it? Here's another one. I don't know if you have have noticed the joy that is attracting so many Democrats to Kamala Harris's rallies. It's just J, capital J. Oh, Y. Joy, joy. In fact, they're so joyous that they can't seem to drive themselves to any of the rallies. Here's local news from CBS Boston showing how joyful they're,
Starting point is 00:20:48 all these people are that go to our rallies that they have. to be bused in. Well, behind me hundreds of invited Harris supporters are leaving and boarding shuttle buses. This was a departure for Kamala Harris. Huh. They're leaving and getting on to buses. Ha.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Well, see, I don't know of the buses that Donald Trump is using to truck all of his support. He's just like, hey, you want to come? Show up. Come. You know. Go ahead, Stu. I mean, shuttle buses, it could be anything, right? I mean, that doesn't prove that they were like all fake people from out of town, right?
Starting point is 00:21:32 I mean, I'm serious. Can I be the lawyer here for a second? Was that? Can I call up as the attorney and go, yeah, she's not a shuttle boat. They're parking issues. No. I mean, you've been to any, you know, a fair, a state fair, a music festival. any big event, there are a lot of times
Starting point is 00:21:51 shuttle buses to bring in people. Please, just do this as the attorney. Just get on to Mr. Newman and just, please, make that case as Mr. Newman, because it's more believable. Well, what I am to say. A lot of times when you have to park, there could be a limited parking,
Starting point is 00:22:06 and you need to have these shuttle buses. Right. Right. Okay. So I think we know where we stand. Hey, here's another one. I don't think the mention of shuttle buses necessarily proves, Have you seen the 21 or 25 buses that were loaded up and came across state lines?
Starting point is 00:22:25 I mean, it's not a shuttle. Better evidence. Hey, everybody. Hey, everybody. It's like a Disney shuttle tram. No, it's not. Okay, so another lie. But don't worry.
Starting point is 00:22:38 This lie has only affected our children for the rest of their lives. Some of our children can no longer have. children. They can no longer have babies. But, you know, as Bill Gates says, you know, when we reduce the population, we'll be able to get the planet under control. So it's not all bad, Malthusians. But, you know, the lie that they told you is that you can be any gender. And men can be women and women can be men. And your problems all go away if you just transition and Hop on this party train. Well, here's a detransitioner.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Cut three. When I was 19 years old, doctors led me to believe that I was transgender. I was told that hormones and surgeries were my only options. They were wrong. Now I suffer from irreversible changes to my body and mind that I will live with for the rest of my life. Today, Kamala Harris is pushing children into these procedures, limiting their choices later in life. That's why I'm voting for Donald Trump because he's committed to protecting children
Starting point is 00:23:48 from these rash decisions. Yeah, but don't worry about it. Let's not talk about that. Let's not talk about that. Why have that discussion? Your country is under attack. We are being invaded by Venezuelan gangs.
Starting point is 00:24:07 You know, let me just give you the latest. It's nothing really to worry about, really. but apparently the Russian gangs are now starting to threaten our oil and gas industry in Texas. Texas-based oil and gas company issued a memo to employees informing them that police and FBI have warned that armed Cuban and Venezuela migrant gangs
Starting point is 00:24:31 are committing thefts in this one area in Texas, the highest-producing oil field. Industry peers and law enforcement, this is the memo. in the West Texas are aware of recent increase of organized criminal activity, inclusive of violent crimes, gang activity, and oil field thefts in and around West Texas operational areas. Specifically, regional law enforcement and the FBI has advised that gang members emanating from Cuba and Venezuela are organizing and working in concert to commit thefts within this basin. These individuals and groups are armed, violent in nature, and will not hesitate
Starting point is 00:25:09 to use force. Oh, okay. Well, that's just happening. Why? Because of the open border policy that Kamala Harris has been for for decades. But now a spokesperson who is lying to you says, oh, no, she's not for that anymore. And then she comes out when asked, uh, you're not for that anymore? My values have not changed. Oh, okay. And are you dumb enough to buy that? Sorry, I don't mean to yell at you. I just have to yell it. You know, I am, honestly, I think this is the sign of insanity.
Starting point is 00:25:52 I'm sitting in a room by myself yelling. So, I mean, you keep bringing up these supposed flip-flops. But, I mean, there's been some changes in positions, you know? Yes. I mean, she was for banning plastic straws. Yes, she was for that, and she's no longer for it. And she was for an EV mandate for automakers, and she's no longer for that. And she was for banning fracking.
Starting point is 00:26:20 And I mean, she's no longer for that. But other than, well, there was also the mandatory buyback program for assault weapons, but she's not for that anymore, just like she's also not for decriminalizing crossing the border, which she was for previously, but now is. is not similar to the reparations for slavery. That one we just don't know. She just won't even address it. I believe the quote was...
Starting point is 00:26:42 But she's probably not for it. My favorite quote of this entire, maybe of this entire campaign was, she will not comment on her current position. When has that been a thing? What do you mean you won't comment on your current position? You're running for president of the United States. Can you imagine... Can you imagine going in for a job interview?
Starting point is 00:27:03 And they say, you're going for the work of the... auto industry. So you have been anti-Ford. I mean, you have led campaigns against Ford, but you now are for Ford and you want to come to work for us and you think you'll be a positive influence? I can't comment on that right now. And then the person that's with you in the hallway just opens up the door a little bit and goes, she's, she's not for that stuff anymore. and closes the door. Wait. Wait.
Starting point is 00:27:40 He just said, who is that? That's a spokesperson of mine. Okay, well, he just said that he's not, you know, that you're not for, you know, shutting Ford down anymore and you'd make a good employee. Can you comment on that? No, I really can't. I can't.
Starting point is 00:27:55 I can't make any comment. On my current position, no, I couldn't. You'd never hire that person. You'd never hire that person. Oh, geez, somebody on the phone again. Hello. and Alan Newman. Listen, I was listening to your commentary
Starting point is 00:28:09 of Kamala Harris, and I just want you to know that she no longer supports the Green New Deal. Okay. All right. Okay. Oh.
Starting point is 00:28:27 It's Friday, America. Welcome. You got to laugh. Otherwise, you're going to weep openly in the streets. This is the best of the Glenn Beck podcast. Welcome to the the Glenn Beck program.
Starting point is 00:28:42 Mario Nafal is, well, he is the biggest, the largest host on X spaces. And I've been on his space several times here recently and I have to tell you, it is it seems to me
Starting point is 00:28:58 to be the future. It is global and therefore you can have people coming in from all over the globe to chime in. And it is the really realization of what the internet promised that we could all connect with one another, somehow or another. And I think it's doing that now. And it's unlike a podcast, which is
Starting point is 00:29:24 recorded. This is live and people can chime in. It's fascinating to listen to. Mario is joining us now, and we want to talk a little bit about the fight between X and Brazil as a part of this global battle for free speech. Mario, how are you? Glenn, pleasure to be here. Yeah, thank you. So are you in Brazil? I know their Independence Day is tomorrow. Michael Schellenberger went down for it, and he got through the airport, so he hasn't been arrested yet. But I know that you're under investigation in Brazil as well. There is no way I'll be stepping foot in that country, one of a few now, despite it being an incredibly beautiful country, despite it being the third biggest democracy in the world.
Starting point is 00:30:19 I was invited by a president of a neighboring country just a couple of weeks ago, and I decided not to go either. After what we saw in France, Pavel, again, we're talking about France, not China, not Russia, not North Korea. arrest when he was allegedly going to meet the president there, I would unfortunately not be going to Brazil, but we are working with various journalists in the country to cover the rally tomorrow. We're doing a space, a large show on Sunday with a few politicians and voices from that country, despite the ban, I've had President Bolsonaro on and our space was blocked, his Wi-Fi was blocked. We're going to do it again on Sunday with a few leaders from the West and from Brazil.
Starting point is 00:31:01 Mario, did you find it interesting that Bolsonaro was supposed to be, you know, the dictator? And then the system kind of came into play through court and just a really, I mean, the Darth Vader judges even looks like Darth Vader. And Lula, who is a communist, it's amazing to me how they claimed that Bolsonero was going to be the dictator. And so we had to go to save democracy. And then now we have pretty much dictatorial rule in Brazil. It always starts this way. You know, we saw that in the U.S. during the terrorist days, the fear after 9-11. You know, the stranglehold on power always begins with a cause that everyone stands for.
Starting point is 00:31:53 So in Bolsonaro, there was a big movement against Bolsonaro in Brazil. And a lot of people on the left, they say, look, Justice Moray, the Supreme Court justice has kind of become the almost dictator of Brazil, they agreed that he's abusing his power, but they said the cause is worth it. What's too important. And as soon as you go down that path, exactly. As soon as you go down that path, you've crossed the line. You've broken the system that ensures a democracy.
Starting point is 00:32:19 And then it gets out of control. You know, power corrupts absolute power corrupts absolutely, and we're seeing that right now in Brazil. It's a perfect example. So are you concerned about how this is crossing Internet? national borders, that we apparently, our government is involved in advising them on how to get Elon Musk, that you have Europe trying to do the same thing. I mean, this is almost revealing the New World Order and how they all will cooperate to crush free speech. First, simple answer to your question, yes, I'm extremely concerned. Again, there's countries
Starting point is 00:33:02 I would not dare travel to right now. I used to travel the world. I've been traveling for over a decade. Brazil, obviously, being one of them. Venezuela being another, you know, Pakistan. These things you'd expect to see in Pakistan. We had, I was interviewing Prime Minister Imran Khan. And a few, I think two, three weeks after the interview, he was arrested. And X was banned in the country.
Starting point is 00:33:24 I had a lot of people from his party on stage. And you wouldn't be, not many people talked about what happened in Pakistan or even Venezuela, which is kind of, it's difficult to call it democracy now. But for this to happen in Brazil to that level, what's next? That's the third biggest democracy. How many steps are we before this reaches the world's biggest, the beacon of democracy, the world's biggest democracy, and that's the United States? That's my concern.
Starting point is 00:33:52 And in terms of America's involvement, yes, America was involved. We saw the leaks that came out when it came to Pakistan, and the US at least gave the okay for the ouster of then Prime Minister of Ron Khan. The leaked messages, the press didn't cover them. So if there, I know Mike Benz, who's a common friend between us, he's covered this extensively. Was the US involved? I wouldn't be surprised. To what extent, you know, we'll find out over time.
Starting point is 00:34:17 My bigger concern is what's next. Because, you know, what's happening in Brazil is being watched by other countries. You know, we saw what happened in the UK, obviously France. And we're seeing what's happening, the lawfare that's happening in the US. So if Morayas gets away with it in Brazil, it's a massive country. country, hundreds of millions, I think 250 million people, if my numbers are correct. If that works in Brazil, again, I want to repeat the world's third biggest democracy, and it works.
Starting point is 00:34:44 What happens to administrations in the US or other countries that also want that same stranglehold on the country that they strangle on free speech? Because they've already gotten the media. We've kind of lost the battle for free speech when it comes to mainstream media, and they've lost the trust of the people. So the only thing left is social media. They're already being targeted very heavily. And my concern is like what happened to the days of Google, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:08 a couple of decades ago fighting for free speech against China. You know, and the whole motto of do no evil. Where's Google now? Where's meta now? You know, Mark Zuckerberg apologized not long ago for abiding by the censorship requests from the Biden administration. Well, why aren't they rallying, why are they kowtowing to the Supreme Court in Brazil? Why aren't they rallying in support of Elon?
Starting point is 00:35:32 Yes, it's very simple. They're choosing money over free speech. And it's a shame that Elon and Rumble, which obviously is much smaller, are the only two social media platforms that are standing up to centralization of power and our basic right of freedom of expressing our thoughts online. But aren't we doing the same thing? We're just doing it maybe perhaps a little quieter. I mean, the minute he bought Twitter and started, you know, opening it back up, they all, almost every department in the government started an open investigation on him. I mean, that's exactly what's happening with this judge in Brazil. They just don't have the First Amendment to slow them down.
Starting point is 00:36:24 But we're doing the same things here. we not? Look, it's not only the various three-letter agencies that are targeting Elon right now, from the STC to the DOJ to the SEC, Elon and its companies. We're seeing potentially women in Brazil, but more importantly, advertisers are doing the same thing. It's just starting to see more of a, a lot of people like to call it the establishment, those in power, unelected officials, but it just seems like that cabal that's trying to maintain power and control. And they're targeting, X in a very blatant way. So Linda Yakarino, who's done an incredible job at X,
Starting point is 00:37:06 she was initially the person that was brought in to kind of make peace with the ADL, make peace with other companies that were trying to, the Apple, for example, when they withdrew the advertising from X. And it worked for a while. And now we saw a leak a couple of days ago. I don't know how true it is. And I think it was politically motivated. I don't think it's true.
Starting point is 00:37:24 The advertisers are planning to, again, boycott X. no good reason why. And we saw Linda put out a letter to advertisers. They're going to start fighting advertisers legally through the US justice system, which I hope the legal system in the US does not go down a similar path. It's already heading down a dangerous path,
Starting point is 00:37:40 but not as far as Brazil. But if the legal system also goes down the path of centralizing power and censorship, then what's left? So advertisers are strangling Twitter's revenue, exes revenue.
Starting point is 00:37:54 If the legal system is not there to protect a company like, Like X, how far can one man go? Despite him being the richest man alive, how far can one person go? Social media companies need to stand up to this. Yeah, they do. Let me ask a question. I've been asked if I would help with a political fundraiser.
Starting point is 00:38:17 And because of the FCC laws, I can't do it on radio. But I was wondering if I could do it on spaces. Can you, what kind of latitude does spaces give? Spaces, a lot of people listening to this might not know of what spaces are, even though they've been blowing up. So the fascinating thing about spaces, just to introduce the audience to them, is that it becomes like, you know, the old-school CNN, Fox News, live coverage
Starting point is 00:38:48 when there's breaking news. But essentially, the audience participates in the coverage. So people could request to come up on stage. And, you know, I've had senators, I've had business leaders during the Silicon Valley bank collapse. I've had Mark Cuban, Bill Ackman come on stage. Obviously, Elon has been on my stage, I think, about five, six, seven times, I think, by now. And so when we're covering a story, you have the people that, you know, the people that have influence come on stage and request. So, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:39:19 And the good thing is that there's no fears of censorship. And to reach, the audience size is staggering. We saw that in the Elon. interview. Exactly. Exactly. So what was that? Do you have that number? What was the, what was the number when we were on together? Any ideas? It was when we were on, it was during the Brazil censorship show. I think we were on twice so far. There was the DNC and the Brazil censorship. Both of them were in the seven figures, a million plus. I don't remember exactly how many. And that's just the original recording. Obviously, a lot of people
Starting point is 00:39:55 snippet and post it in different places. But that's just the original recording. The Elon 1 is sitting, my biggest was probably about $18 million for one stream, and then the one with Elon and Trump is in the tens and tens of millions. Amazing. Amazing.
