ifs ands. I think he's a guy who looks at the Cold War and says, well, that ended the wrong way. I mean, he has said those words. he believes in the former Soviet state he is a dictator he is bloodthirsty he is a killer so I want to make sure that everything that needs to be said

about Vladimir Putin is said because he is you know is a rattlesnake a good pet the answer is no that's what everybody says the actual answer is yes, as long as you never forget, it's a rattlesnake.

The minute you start treating it as a pet like a puppy dog, you're dead. So is Putin somebody you can negotiate with? Yes, as long as you always remember, he's Vladimir Putin. But I think, well, Jason, give me your view on Vladimir Putin and this whole situation. Vladimir Putin, I believe is, I mean, I agree with you. I think that it's very rare in the world to have someone that sees the interests of their country and they're willing to take certain steps to ensure that their country is taken care of. And what I mean by that is willing to just invade a country over it, willing to, you know, be a bloodthirsty killer over it. That's rare. It's even more rare to have the cartoon villain as, as a leader like Kim Jong-un. Kim Jong-un. It is a total cartoon character.

Yes. It's also very rare for a country to ignore geopolitical laws and rules like a Hitler and go off and just try and conquer an entire continent. That is also very rare. Most of the people fall in line of someone like, I don't know, not sure the type of leader, basically pick 90% of the leaders out there. They're willing to go so far. Putin is willing to go those extra few steps.

But he's not a cartoon character. So what you can always expect from Vladimir Putin is he is willing to do the things to ensure the safety of his country from how it. And him. And him. Which is also a dictatorial regime, the regime. Correct. Willing to. Correct.

So there's ways that you can predict how this is going to go based off of those rules. So that's always in my mind. When you're looking at this, how do you think this is good? going to go. What do you think we end up with, if anything? So I think that Vladimir Putin initially wanted to just take all of Ukraine because that solved most of their issues. That keeps NATO out. If you look at a map, you know, the border of Ukraine and Russia is just a couple hundred miles from Moscow. So for us, in our own perspective, that's like accepting nuclear weapons in Havana. No, it's not even that. It's like New Jersey. Exactly. Right. So it was a geopolitical,

paramount for him to take Ukraine. He failed at that. So now what he's looking at, I need some kind of buffer so armies can't go through Ukraine, NATO armies can't go through Ukraine and get to Moscow in an hour. He's got to do that. So what he's building here, I think, is that now he's established a buffer. Now what he's looking for is an excuse to give to his people, look, he'll say the special military operation. That's what he loves to call it. It succeeded. We have our offer zone, I can claim victory for you his people. Now, what the, he also has to leave open for the Europeans and for Ukraine is a way to also say, we won. We stopped him. He did not take Ukraine. If both sides can do that, and I think we're getting hints that we're getting close to that.

The Article 5 like security. If it's real. If it's real, that's big. Yes. Zelensky saying, you can't have territory that you haven't already conquered, as you pointed out. Yes. That's an interesting hint. That means that he might be willing to accept Crimea going their way and other those areas providing that buffer zone needs in Ukraine. And there's a new poll out that shows from Ukraine that the Ukrainians don't want to give any land back. But Stu, who is so good at reading polls, that's not exactly what it says, is it? Yeah, the poll actually is they don't want to give up more land that has already been occupied. That's where the 78% comes in.

And I think that's going to be a problem because, I mean, Putin seems to want additional land, including like these two cities that are, you know, central to the defense of Ukraine. So that is going to be a real problem in the negotiations. I don't think so. If they're not occupied, I think that's where Trump is trying to push them. I agree. You keep the land you already have occupied. I think that's where Trump is trying to push them.

I think there's a good shape. People is. I think the Ukraine, I think Ukraine would, you know, a lot of different parts of this negotiation have to go a specific way. But I think there's, I think there's a world in which Ukraine accepts that. The problem is, at least at this point, Russia seems to be asking for more than that. They seem to be asking for multiple cities and areas that they do not currently occupy. They want that entire Donbass region, which would include.

Yeah, I don't think that's reasonable. I agree. And that's that. that's absolutely what Putin wants. If you look at a map, he wants the area right where you see Belarus and Ukraine connect, he would love to have that area all the way down the coast of Crimea

because that's the full buffer zone. That's what he's going to push for it. Right, but I don't think that's reasonable to add. That's where Marco Rubio's like, everybody's going to have to give up something. And, you know, I think if Ukraine can live with, they conquered this land, they're in this land, and we're just drawing a line there.

I think Putin should be willing to accept that. It's not what he wants, but he would be willing to accept that because it does give him the buffer zone, does it not? If he just keeps the conquered land. That he has now? Yes. It's not the full buffer zone that he would like,

but it is a buffer zone. Yeah. Nobody's going to get everything that they want. And I think the polling shows that that is seemingly acceptable to the Ukrainian people that if you don't if you're occupying it right now you're going to keep that

we can live with that and then Ukraine gets the Article 5 which is all they is what they said that's what started this whole thing they wanted protection from Russia

and they wanted to join NATO the reason why they wanted to join NATO is because they wanted the Article 5 protection If Russia comes in, then that triggers NATO to come in and fight the war against Russia. That keeps them at bay. So Ukraine at a very high cost gets that. Russia, at a very high cost, gets most of what they want in the buffer zone. That's a reasonable ending.

I agree or disagree? No, no, I agree. And it also sets, I mean, and this is far from over. So let's say there's some guarantees that last for five, ten, whatever years, how many ever years. Both sides are going to be looking to play the Chinese perspective on this. And I say Chinese perspective because if you look at how they treated Taiwan, the Chinese reluctantly gave up Taiwan. And we were involved providing security guarantees, providing weapons, things like that. That's how both sides have to be looking to play the long game.

You give this up, you make concessions now. And the long run, the discussion is still open. Things may happen. You can play your little games, all that. You can look towards maybe taking back that land in some way in the future. But this is what you accept now and set up this game of chess for longer. And now at least you're not losing 1.5 million people. Still.

First of all, two things. First, can we ask a question? Are you guys, do you guys believe, are you confident in the idea that Vladimir Putin has accepted this pseudo article 5 opposition. I just, I have not heard him say that until I hear, because I've heard Trump officials say it. But I am skeptical that he's actually agreed to this. I just haven't heard until I hear him say it. So when I played, could you play that Trump sound that we played cut three?

Listen to what he says carefully. I believe we had a very productive meeting. There were many, many points that we agreed on. most of them, I would say, a couple of big ones that we haven't quite gotten there, but we've made some headway. I think that's the Article 5 thing. We've made a lot of headway. We have some things where we've made agreements and then we've really made some headway.

We haven't really gotten there yet. I think that's what he's talking about is the Article 5. And then one of his spokespeople come out and say, it's Article 5. if we're willing to do the Article 5 thing, because that's Trump speaking it into existence. He didn't say it with Vladimir Putin standing next to him because they're still working on it, and I'm sure Vladimir Putin or somebody else is going,

no, I'm not really sure about that. And so he has one of his people floated out there to see the reaction and speak it into existence. Because I think that is, if he can get that done, if he can get Russia to accept that, that's enormous, enormous. Yeah, that would be enormous. I'm of the opinion. Yeah, it would be. And I'm of the opinion that Putin has agreed to that in some way because Putin is very quick to put these things down, especially to his own people, especially if he thinks that he's going to lose public opinion within Russia with ordinary Russians. And he has not done that yet. So that's a huge signal to me. Plus, I think that I personally think that a line from Donald Trump is about, territorial concessions. I think that is the major sticking point on this. And that's what he's going

to have to go back and forth with the Europeans today and Zelensky on. What are you willing to concede territorially? Because that's what this is all about. Do you know enough about where everybody's going to come down? I mean, I'm sure Maloney is going to come down with Trump. Uh, Germany probably will come down with Trump. No? Probably not. It's very hard to predict on the European side because they have more skin in the game on this. It's very different argument with them. But you get, if you can get the Article 5, that's what they've been wanting. Yeah.

So, I mean, that is such a huge concession. You know, it's weird because you know what the press is going to say. If he gives up land and we have the Article 5 and he gets that deal done, the press is going to call him Hitler and Neville Chamberlain at the same time. I don't know how you, that works. But yeah, it will be. It's Hitler and Neville Chamberlain. How?

But they will make that case. Let me tell you about good ranchers. Every time you fire up the grill, you're making a choice. You're making a choice where you can either support the billions of pounds of foreign meat that is coming into this country. Meat mysteriously stamped product of the U.S. You should not be able to put that little flag on beef that is coming from elsewhere. You shouldn't be able to do it. But they do it anyway because it's a loophole.

So you can't trust that that's coming from America. And the reason why is, A, you want to know exactly what's in your beef. You want to know that it is 100% born, raised and harvested here in the United States because that is really, really important. Not only because of the quality, but also because we have to have these ranchers and farmers. Why are we, so to speak, farming this out to other countries? It makes no sense. We have to have our own food supply.

So here's what I would like to recommend that you maybe do. Go to Good Ranchers right now. Good Ranchers.com. See what everybody is talking about. See why this is a better deal for you. Shop American meat that you can trust. That's fish, that's seafood, all top quality. And if you use the promo code back today, you're going to get $40 off,

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program and we really want to thank you for listening. Well, looking at the president's schedule, it looks like he's going to be a little busy today. he's got some photos he's got to take around two o'clock in the afternoon. It sounds like Biden's schedule. He first meets with Zelensky, I think, at one for one-on-one bilateral talks. Then he's going in and he greets the leaders in the state dining room. And then I think he takes some pictures with their families, et cetera, et cetera. And then they go into serious meetings about that around three o'clock in the afternoon.

And, of course, you'll get all of it covered on MSNBC. later today. I don't know if it'll be covered on MSNBC. I guess today that might be true. That might be true. But soon it will no longer be true, Glenn. MSNBC is changing its name. They're changing their name.

American institution of MSNBC. It's jarring to lose that close working relationship, which is how it started between Microsoft and NBC. Right. MS for Microsoft and NBC. and NBC. Yes. And Microsoft has been out of this for a long time, haven't they?

Yes, they've been out of it for a long time, but they kept the MS in there. Why? That I don't know. I can't explain many of the things they do. Right. Okay. All right. Okay.

I think most people would be, you know, that wouldn't remember it, would be shocked to realize that Microsoft was once a big part of this. It was supposed to be, I think it was the first embrace of digital at that level, right? Like, it was a big deal. at that time. Didn't last all that wrong. And there's nothing that says credibility more than the mainstream media and Bill Gates.

When you put those two things together, you know you got something special. You really do. So is NBC suing MSNBC? Like, hey, we even can't have our name on that. They're spinning them off. So NBC is spinning off MSNBC into its own separate company.

They're apparently hiring right now because they're losing access to the NBC news room. So they need to hire a whole new batch of horrible journalists that make a mockery of the profession to bring over there. When does this happen? When does this go through? The official change. I don't know. This is the first date they're announcing the new name.

Let's see if I can find when that actually happens. It launched, by the way, in 1996 in case you were wondering how long this thing's been around. It seems like it was 1896 or 1796. I know. So, I don't know that they had some credibility at the very beginning. Yeah. I think Lester Holt started on MSNBC. Yeah.

And back in the 90s. It was seen, and it was still left leaning, but almost, it's left leaning the way you'd expect every other piece of crap, you know, mainstream broadcast to be. It was like CNN. Like it was like left leaning, but not necessarily completely insane. Now, both of them since then have gone completely insane. And, you know, they went through the Keith Olberman. period. And I mean, they've gone so far off the rails, obviously, at this point.

But we know that the new name is. Do you want to, do you want to guess? Do you have any idea? Have you seen this? C. It is Crapcan. Yes, crap can news. You're right. No, that's C.N. That's C-CN. It might be. Yeah, different one. Might be too confusing. All right. Go ahead. What is it? It is MS now. So let me see if I have this right. MS hasn't been a part of MSNBC since the turn of the century. Years and years and years and years, yeah. Right. Yeah.

But they're going to keep the MS part. Right. Mm-hmm. And the N. And the end. They're only changing two letters. That's what it is. They're like, we can just cut those two letters out of everything and just put O.W there instead of BC.

Now, other than the fact that MS now sounds like, like a plea for multiple sclerosis. Do you... Do you... Do you... Do you want to take a venture, a guess, as to what this actually stands for?

Each letter stands for something. Oh, it stands for... It's an acronym. Yes, MS now. News? You're skipping MS, but yes, news. News is correct. You got that right.

So that one's right. You got to get the MS to it's not Microsoft. I have no idea. Do you want me to tell you what it is? I do, because I think it's going to be highly entertaining. Yeah. My source. My source.

Opinion. World. So we have, do they have cavemen working at their ad agency? My source, news, opinion. World. World. Mmm. Fire.

Good. I mean, I will say the IQ level is about there. My source news, opinion and world? Yes. Now, you're a guy who's done this, right?

You've, the blaze, you came up with the name of that, GBTV before that. The torch. The torch coming soon to, to you. You also have many radio stations that you programmed back in the day where you would look at what they were presenting. So if you're looking at all of that as an expert in this field, how would you grade this rebrand for MSNBC?

Does zero count? Usually it's 10 to 1. You know, 1 to 10. Can I include zero or negative numbers? That is the worst rebounding I've ever heard. Yeah, it's really bad. You just start fresh from the very beginning, come up with something good. Yeah. But they're trying to obviously bridge that gap to, hey, this is what we've always been. So you get into MS, gives you a little bit of familiarity. The logo... So it's going to be...

Wait, wait, wait, wait. So it's not MS now. It's good. They're going to call it MSN-O-W. I think they're going to call it MS now. I think they're trying to keep the MS as something, you know... Again, that only people think of multiple sclerosis. Nobody thinks.

Nobody thinks of Microsoft. Nobody thinks of multiple sclerosis. They don't want anybody to think of Microsoft. They haven't been involved in forever. They'd rather have you think of a debilitating disease. Yes. Than Microsoft. That is better than their reputation.

Yeah. It is. The other thing you could look at it if you wanted to, they could go the feminist direction and call it Miz now. Oh my gosh. That could be something they can try. Oh my gosh. That sounds like something they would love

because it indicates to me it's an absolute guaranteed flaming just ball of death as it hits the ground. Miz now. That just sounds like something that's like, yeah, we should do that.

We should do that. And everybody else is like, no, you're going to crash this plane into the side of the mountain. It's just going to be a fiery ball of wreckage. It's not good. To be clear, the plane has only been flying like two feet off the ground for many, many years. But yes, they might actually crash it this time. I could see Ms. Now actually being the way they go, which would be even more comical. Though it would require them, I think, in theory, to define what a woman is if they went with Ms. now. No, that might not work either.

This is a tough one. And when is this happening? I have not seen. I have not seen. the exact date. It is supposed to be soon. The spinoff was announced last winter. They initially said they would be keeping its name, but then during the transitional period, they decided that they needed a new separate identity. So can I ask you, why, why, who's making these decisions in hiring? NBC? Is NBC like, you know what? We're going to staff and design our competitor. Yeah, kind of. I mean, because it does... Why would you do that?

One of the statements I saw said NBC Universal decided. So I guess because they haven't fully spun off yet, they actually are making these decisions. Maybe they have a bet. So they're just spitting it off, but they're keeping... Are they keeping it in the Universal Comcast world? I don't think selling it. It's a separate company.

I think it's going to be sold separate company. Why wouldn't you just sell the position? Why wouldn't you just sell the cable access? you know, like Current did. Remember when Current sold it to... Right. They couldn't sell that. They wouldn't sell...

Al Gore would not sell current TV to Glenn Beck because I was so un-American, in his own words, that he sold it to Al Jazeera. Right. I remember this. You know, the company that bought it with oil money from Al Gore. So that made a lot of sense to him. so why wouldn't

why wouldn't they just sell that position why wouldn't they just go it's up for sale why would you buy something that NBC created that I mean so wait a minute you hired everybody but you hired them because you couldn't give anybody

on NBC a role there so you were like why would you have hired you find anybody good you'd be like yeah save those guys for NBC this guy belongs at Ms. now That's what we're calling it from here on now, Stu. That's good.

Miz now. Miz now. Miz now is just too good. Now, remember, too, at one point, Elon Musk contemplated the potential purchase of MSNBC. He's smarter than that. Yeah. Why would you want a cable news company? What is he in a time machine?

He got back into a time machine. You know, I'd like to do that, and I'd like a printing press, too. That's a fair point. I just, I will say, and the color scheme and like the logo is really basic. It looks terrible, honestly. And this is going to go, I think, poorly, Glenn. Poorly. That's saying something. When MSNBC is designing something that you think might be worse than MSNBC. Shocking. Shocking, you could do it. You know, if you put your mind to it, you can accomplish it. anything, Glenn, including making MSNBC even worse. I mean, that's like if we designed it.

Honestly, it would be like, okay, all right, let's hire a bunch of lefties. We're going to call it Miz now. We're going to lead with, oh my gosh, look at that. We're going to lead with guy cheerleaders and communism. It's going to be big. I mean, that sounds like something I would design for them. to either make fun of them or just to be, let's see if we can.

Do you remember when I told you I went to that opera called the nose? I took my daughter to the opera. She loved opera. And it was, honestly, it was, I don't even know what the story was, but it was, the main character was a nose. So it's a giant nose with feet coming out of the nostrils. And I said, at the time, I said,

this has to be, this was written by somebody who, was like, you know, these opera snobs, I'm going to write this whole thing. It makes no sense. It's awful. But I'm going to say, oh, no, you just don't get it. You don't get the nose with the feet coming out of it. You don't get it? Well, I guess so. And they sold it just because opera snobs didn't want to say, I don't get it. Okay? You had to get it or you weren't cool. I think this is what, I think this is what might be. This is just might be a play on like, how bad can we make this thing to see if we can get these lefties and go, you don't get Ms. now?

You don't understand that? All right, well, whatever. No, no, I get it. I think it's genius. In fact, I want to pay more for it. What a bunch of dopes. You're streaming the best of the Glenn Beck program, and you can find full episodes wherever you download podcasts.

In the belly of the beast. I'm sitting here with the CEO of Prager You, which we all know if you watch. you know, CNN or, you know, you saw anything from Vox. They are the new PBS. They're, which I think because Marissa Strite is the CEO, she's up here at my ranch because we're filming some stuff for Prigger, you kids, right?

And does that make me Elmo? I think you're more of a big bird. Big bird. Okay, okay, good. All of a sudden it doesn't feel so great. So they're claiming that you are becoming the new PBS because you're going after our kids. Can you just, first of all, do you get any money from the federal government? We won't take a dollar from the government.

That's in our mission. Well, Stu, help me out. Doesn't that automatically disqualify you from being PBS? It does. I would say it does. Yes. I mean, I think the big thing about PBS is they're. taking our federal dollars and using it in ways that I don't necessarily agree with,

and they can make money on their own. So I think the press misses what the problem is with PBS. So tell me about what you are doing right now, because there's several things. First of all, let's start with the 250th anniversary. What are you doing on the 250th anniversary? So Prager-U uses edutainment. And so in some ways they're comparing us to PBS because of that, because we believe that learning should be fun and it should be entertaining. And that oftentimes when you're entertained, you can learn.

And so in that way, we are somewhat similar to PBS. But what we are doing is we're celebrating America. America has never been perfect, but it's the greatest country on God's green earth. And when we are teaching kids to grow up and not love their country, it is causing so many, problems. It's a national security issue. It's a mental health issue for our children. And so we are taking this opportunity for America's 250th birthday to just reignite patriotism and give some perspective that, yes, America has its blemishes. Of course it does. But America is a great country and has been a leader in greatness for so many years. And we want to teach that. And so what we are doing is we're

creating content for every single learner, four years old, all the way through 104, to remember what our country is about, what our DNA is. And the nice thing is, is that it's actual history. I mean, we caught something yesterday or working on several of these videos that are going to be used in AP classes, right? So this is AP history in high schools. Yes. I mean, look, so many Americans are learning history through the lens of Howard Zinn.

For those who don't know who Howard Zinn is, I think he categorically destroyed the history classes in America, right? Teaching a perspective, not all of it was a lie, but it's the footnotes. It's without the greater perspective of what America is. And so we are taking American history and we're making it fun and engaging. And so that students who would watch this course that we're creating together will not learn, not only learn the truth about America, but we'll have a perspective and enjoy doing it at the same time. That's the edutainment piece of it. And it's really amazing because we're not avoiding the bad stuff.

We're doing something today on slavery. Yes. And, you know, I saw somewhere I read, you know, they were accusing you guys of, Prager You is dismissing slavery and saying it's no big deal. And I'm like, on what planet, in what parallel universe is Prager U saying that? Well, what they're saying is we made a video that teaches about Christopher Columbus. And we basically paraphrased what he would have said to two young kids. And from Christopher Columbus's perspective, he probably thought that slavery was okay because that's what he did.

And so because we had the cartoon, Christopher Columbus, say, oh, I think slavery is okay. And then the kids responded back to him in this show that we made. Well, actually, slavery is abhorrent. It is a horrible thing. Right. We know today that it was a terrible thing that the world engaged in slavery. And then Christopher Columbus in this cartoon responds and says, oh, wow, I didn't have that perspective. I didn't know.

Uh-huh. That is why we are being attacked because we are. paraphrasing what Christopher Columbus would have said. And so what does the silly media do? I mean, it's completely cuckoo. They're claiming that Prager You is claiming that slavery was okay because the character in our cartoon, that character Christopher Columbus, said it was okay. You know, it's amazing. I think this stuff is coming undone quickly. And they're panicking. I mean, look what you're doing with teachers. These teachers are moving from, you know, deeply blue states into red states.

And the states, rightfully, you know, are saying, ah, we don't want any of that California crap in our schools. But if they're licensed to be a teacher, they can teach anywhere. But that's now changing because states are saying, no, you're coming from California. You're coming from New York. I want to make sure that you know the things that, you know, are true. And we're not having any of this woke crap.

this test that you're giving now, and you've been asked by the states to develop this test, and it is so, to me, first grade kind of questions, I can't believe there is a problem with this at all. I mean, we're living in shocking times, Glenn. It's shocking. People can see the test. We've made this test available. They can go to our website. They can check it out. The test is so very basic. The fact that the media and the administrators of woke schools are squealing over this test is unbelievable. It is so very, very basic. But you're right. In California, teachers are required to take a course called the PRISM test. I like to call it the prison test because, frankly, I think teachers should go to prison. If you can't pass this. Yes. It's crazy. The PRISM test is given to California and teachers

to, it's not a test. It's a course. It's a six-part course that teaches a teacher how to not differentiate between a boy and a girl, how to actually bring all of the sexualization that we've been complaining about in classrooms. And so it's not just superintendents of education that have approached us with questions. How do we help teachers do the right thing? It's also parents. Parents are coming to us and saying, well, we don't know if we can trust these teachers anymore. We're going to send our kids to our schools and have a teacher that can't pass a basic civics test, that can't pass a basic literacy test, that can't pass a basic understanding of what a boy is and what a girl is. So Superintendent of Education, Ryan Walters

of Oklahoma, approached us and said, can you just do something very basic? Because the complaints are coming in when parents are sending their kids to schools where teachers who have come in from California and New York are in charge of a classroom and are bringing in the woke indoctrination that they've received in California. Any idea how many teachers are failing this test? Well, we are launching this test now. So this is a brand new test, but I can tell you how many teachers

have been forced to pass the prism test in California almost every single one of them. So listen to some of these questions. Stu, this is multiple choices. This is not a setup. This is multiple choice. So, I mean, you'll get everyone. What's the primary, this is the first question.

What's the primary biological distinction between males and females. A. height and weight. B. Hairstyle. C. Personal preference. D. chromosomes and reproductive anatomy. That's a tough one. That's a tough one. I know.

Leaning hairstyle. At birth, at birth, how is a person's biological sex typically identified? A. Personal feelings. B. Parental choice. C. Online registration. D. visual anatomical observation and chromosomes.

It's a fascinating one. I mean, obviously the answer is D, but I would say a lot of people on the left would say B, right? Like it's parental preference or something. Yeah, right. Or personal feelings. I mean, you know, this only gets, this only gets hard if you are completely disconnected from science and reality. Well, you mentioned science and reality. I have spoken to pediatricians and doctors, frankly, from all over the country who are forced to erase the question of whether they have a boy or a girl in the medical charts when they're receiving a new patient. So this is not just a problem in schools, but this is a problem in pediatric offices as well. So yes, sadly, we are living in the twilight zone where teachers have to be taught.

Very basic common sense. Listen to this. name one reason the colonists fought for the British. A, avoid working the land. B, higher social standing. C. Resist forced army service. D. protest high British taxes without representation. I mean, honestly, fifth graders, in my day, fifth graders would be able to take this, you know, a hundred years ago.

First graders would be insulted by these. Who was the first president? John Adams, Thomas, Thomas Jefferson. Greg Washington or George Washington. I'm pretty sure it was Greg. What did the Emancipation Proclamation do? Ended Prohibition, freed Confederate generals, freed the slaves in the North,

freed the slaves in the South. Honestly, you cannot be a teacher if you don't know these things. We agree. We agree. And as much as we're giggling about it, and it sounds funny, but it's really not funny, Glenn. It's really sad and it's really upsetting. Part of what this test is doing is it's actually recalibrating what is happening in the classrooms.

It's reminding teachers to focus on what matters. It's reminding teachers to actually look at the world through common sense, a lens of common sense. And sadly, the teacher indoctrination centers, which is basically the teacher seminaries, the colleges for teachers, have been turning the world upside down, and they're training these young teachers to go into our classrooms, and you're lucky if they know nothing. The problem is the Marxism that they're being taught. I know, I know. Talk to me a little bit about Hungary,

because you just got back from Hungary. Didn't you last, weren't you there last week? Yes, we were in Hungary last week. What is happening in Hungary? So what is happening now is the world is realizing that there's a real attack on common sense everywhere, and there's an attack on values. And Prager You through our edutainment model has been successful here in the United States.

I mean, as you could see, CNN, New York Times, they're all upset that we're becoming the new PBS, as they call us. And we don't want to just create a system that helps America. We want to create an industry that helps the world. We want the world to be a better place, Glenn. And so when other places, when other countries approach Prager You and say, hey, how do you, how do you, we do edutainment in our own country, our answer is yes. And so we have created now a training system for other countries so that they can bring these wholesome, patriotic values to their own countries. So we flew to Hungary to train them. We've been training some folks in the UK.

Canadians have come out to Prager You. We've done the same training for them. For a very long time, I hate to say this, over the last 10 years, America has been exporting some really, bad ideas. USAID. USAID has been a huge problem. It's been propagating a lot of this gender blur stuff. Yeah. And to countries that were dead set against it, but we're starving. You can't get the aid unless you teach this. Exactly. And they did because they had to. We've been bribing other countries to do the wrong thing. It's awful. To sexualize their children. And so we feel that as an organization that is helping save America, we are trying to undo that damage as well. And if we can

train other countries to undo the damage, then that's what we're there for. So do you base that on their stuff, or do you base that on like the American understanding of freedom? So our, we have a set of values at Prager You, which is the American, what we call the American DNA, our understanding of freedom. Right. We are not looking to export American ideas. to other countries. What we are looking to do is teach the model of how edutainment works and to teach them a model of how Prager You follows its values. Now, many of them, and we do make sure that the folks that we're working with do honor and respect our values. We're not going to train a bunch of Marxists in doing so. And many of them are using some of our videos

as a baseline for teaching. Well, you're doing God's work. I am so proud to partner with you and to call you friend and Dennis the same. Can you give me a quick update? I've only got a couple of seconds. Quick update on Dennis. How is he doing? So Dennis had a very severe injury. For those who don't know the background, he fell down.

He hit his spinal cord. The spinal cord injury is at the top of his spine. And so it makes it very, very difficult for him to breathe. And that's why the recovery is taking so long. It's been already nine months that he's been laying down. his mind is there, his body is not there, but the good news is he just completed another book. So Dennis is living his values. Yeah.

Well, we pray for him all the time. Thank you so much. By the way, if you want to give to Prager You, Mercury 1 has given a Prager You, Tanya and I donate to Prager You. I mean, I really, I believe these guys really are saving the Republic. It's one of the most important movements. this month they are doing a matching dollar for dollar. So you give a dollar, somebody else will give a dollar to match it.

So you double the effect. Please give to Prager You. Go to Prageru.com. Prageru.com. Better you than the government. You don't take a dollar. Yeah, good. Beavenue at board of Via Rai.
