Yeah, it must be
kind of cool to talk to
the wife of a person
who's in the radio
Hall of Fame
someone's really
accomplished something
and not just like
They give that out
to just any
Really?
Wow.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, we had,
We had Catherine Limbaugh on.
That's really cool.
And she's just a remarkable woman.
So kind and gracious.
But she has a new book out that Rush actually started to write with her while he was dying.
She reminded me of this thing called optimism, which I had forgotten about.
Yeah, I didn't know what existed.
Yeah.
But just a really, at least for me, it was emotionally draining for me.
Yeah.
I mean, we talked about this during when we were off the air, but this is the first election that we're going through without Rush Limbaugh.
And we talked to her about that.
I mean, that's a big statement.
And it didn't really hit me until we started talking to her.
We do talk to a couple of candidates in some of the biggest races in the country as well.
Don Boldock in New Hampshire today.
Liked him.
Yeah.
I think you will too.
Yeah.
Eric Schmidt.
We like him a lot in Missouri.
So a couple of big candidates there.
and I think it was a good show.
It was a great podcast.
Make sure you listen to all of it.
It's really good.
And a reminder, tomorrow,
I think I said on today's podcast that it was tonight,
but it is actually tomorrow a podcast that you can find on my Glenn Beck YouTube page.
Also, Blaze will get it a few hours early.
My interview with Kerry Lake, it is going to be great.
I love her.
But let's see if she has.
Let's see if she really has the stamina to take on the things that she's going to have to take on in Arizona.
That'll happen tomorrow on a special podcast that you'll be able to find on YouTube or Blaze TV if you're a subscriber.
Brought to you by Goldline, Americans, you need to know that it is possible to use your retirement account to acquire precious metals.
Not only is it possible, it probably is a little bit wise.
The dollar is jacked up and everybody is feeling inflation.
We're feeling inflation.
Too many dollars chasing too few goods.
The way that the world always resets after something as bad and catastrophic as this is with gold.
And it is a big deal right now.
If you want to protect what you have, what you've saved,
please consider gold or silver precious metals called Gold Line today.
Tell them that I sent you from the podcast.
and give them the code,
M-Y-B.
Mind your business.
They're giving away silver bars right now
just as a thank you for calling in.
So request the information,
do your own homework, goldline.com.
Call them 866-6-6-Goldline or Goldline.com.
You're listening to the best of the bliss.
Debate last night in Florida went probably, I think, as expected.
DeSantis crushed.
Charlie Chris was just kept trying to focus on abortion rights.
What?
What?
Desantis crushed?
What debate were you watching?
I was I was closely following the New York Times coverage on this.
Yeah.
Oh, were you?
Yeah, I got a totally different picture of this.
Like, for example, that time when, when a good old Rod DeSantis always going to it,
Always with those misleading Republican claims.
Like last night when he said Mr. Christ was supporting abortion up until the moment of birth,
this is a common Republican claim, but abortion until the moment of birth doesn't exist.
They literally wrote that sentence in the New York Times.
It's called partial birth abortion.
No, it does not exist.
No, I'm curious in this because we've seen many cases where it did exist.
and people were arrested for it.
So those people obviously should be let out of prison.
Can I ask you, do you think the writers at the New York Times think they're Jedi's?
Yes.
I think honestly.
That's not the abortion you were looking for.
I was reading their coverage today and I think you might be onto something.
I think they think they can wave their hands.
What do you mean it doesn't exist?
What does that mean?
Now, you could say it doesn't occur frequently.
It's not an incredibly common procedure.
You could certainly make that point.
point, and that would be valid. It's not the most common type of abortion. To say it does not
exist is like, it's insanity. What do you mean it doesn't exist? What are you talking about?
War is peace. Right. And let's just say for a moment it didn't exist. It still should be illegal,
right? Right. Like, Art the clown from Terrifier 2 does not actually exist. He's a movie character.
However, killer clowns should still be outlawed.
Right?
And the point of the comment from DeSantis is that Christ doesn't want it outlawed.
He wants it to be legal.
He wants it to be up to the woman, whether the killer clown comes and decapitates the worker at his convenience store.
Think about how weak you are as an individual.
If you only read the New York Times and other.
Yeah.
You are now accepting that things that exist in the real world don't exist.
Yeah.
And things that don't exist in the real world do exist.
Right.
It's incredible.
I mean, you have no chance of survival.
Let me give you, can I give you a couple, another example for the DeSantis to be?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
DeSantis also said Mr. Chris supported dismemberment abortions, a pejorative term for procedures performed later in pregnancy.
Oh, I guess if you're dismembering a baby, you could describe it as pejorative because it is a negative connotation, the whole taking the baby apart thing.
There is some negative association with that.
Again, they don't deny that's what occurs during the abortion.
They don't say that's not what he's describing it inaccurately.
It's just a negative way of saying taking the baby apart.
Can you
But there's positive ways
There's positive ways
Like
He could have grown up to be a killer clown
I can
This he was in a clown suit
Inside the womb
This procedure belongs
In the killer clown movie
That is where it should be
It shouldn't be something supported by half of the country
And by the way it's not
Half of the politicians in this country
Yes
But then
you go over to the house
where Nancy Pelosi
is running
she's trying her best to get Democrats
elected. Can I give you some quotes from the piece that came out?
That was the DeSantis piece that you just heard.
Okay.
Should I give you the one more DeSantis one? It's pretty good.
Yeah, go. All right.
I'll give it to you.
He gave also a graphic
and inaccurate description of
gender affirming care for transgendered
children, suggesting falsely
that doctors were mutilating
minors. In reality,
gender affirming care,
which major medical associations,
including pediatric associations,
endorse, primarily involves
social support,
non-permanent
treatments like puberty blockers and
hormonal treatments. So all of the
videos you've seen of
doctors, surgeons
describing how many
bragging to their
DEI departments,
how often they've done these surgeries,
that also doesn't exist.
It's just social support.
It's just, yeah, you go, Jill, you're really John.
That's all it is.
Do you believe this Ron DeSantis character?
But on the other side, in the house,
Nancy Pelosi also got covered.
And I think you'll say this is the same type of treatment
that Rod DeSantis received.
Here's some quotes from the...
These are all real quotes from the article today.
New York Times in peak form.
This may be peak New York Times.
Wow.
I'm,
maybe it was when they were denying the Holodomor,
but I will say it might just be today.
Okay.
Ms. Pelosi, this is a quote,
after multiple articles about how rich the new prime minister
and how awful and rich and how he's privileged the new prime minister of Great Britain.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The woman with the ice cream drawer in her.
Right.
Yeah.
Okay.
Got it.
Ms. Pelosi is an 82-year-old juggernaut in Armani.
Actual quote.
A juggernaut in Armani, as in Georgio Armani.
Yes.
Okay.
For her, it's a wonderful attribute that she owns these incredibly expensive clothes.
Yes.
The article directly above it, just how rich is the new Prime Minister of Britain,
Rishi Sunox's assent is breakthrough for diversity with privilege.
attached. Okay. Back to Pelosi. Her energy level amazes and inspires her troops.
I'm surprised her staff is not on record saying that she's lazy. I don't know. I'm surprised
they couldn't get that quote out of them. You know, she's actually lazy and awful. I don't know.
She is masterful, said Representative Haley Stevens, a Michigan Democrat. And this one,
I don't know what to make of this. I would like your opinion on what to make of this quote.
as she campaigned last week
she carried in her purse
a sausage
this is a real
quote
as she campaigned last week
she carried in her purse
a sausage
wrapped in a bow
presented to her by a fan
what
what fan walked up to Nancy
Pelosi and said
Madam Speaker
here's a sausage
wrapped in a bow
and she's carrying it around in her purse.
Who carries a sausage in her purse?
I don't.
I do not want to answer that
as I may be on trial with the FCC.
I got to take a break.
I got to take a break.
A sausage.
She has a purse sausage.
Ladies and gentlemen.
Nancy Pelosi is walking around.
You want to talk about science of dementia.
Isn't number one on the list?
You're carrying a sausage in your purse.
Where did I put that sausage?
Okay.
If out of the blue one day, someone just gave you a chance to save seven.
That's in the New York Times.
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
Eric Schmidt is joining us now.
He's running for U.S.
Senate. He is currently the Missouri Attorney General. Hello, Eric. How are you? Good to be with you. I'm doing
great, Glenn. Hey, I just have to ask you, does some of your tenacity come from the fact that your, I think it was your
grandfather, was in the 7th Army, which, if I'm not mistaken, the 7th was Patton, wasn't it?
Well, he was in the 44th Infantry Division, and they saw a lot of combat. And my grandfather had
eighth grade education and fought in World War II came back, started a butcher shop where, you know,
raised a family. My dad worked seven days a week in the midnight shift. And so, yeah, I think,
I think I got some of that grit and determination for my family and that work ethic because
there's a lot of work to do, but I'm certainly blessed to have, to be in a position to do some of
the stuff. So I want to talk to you about two things, ESG and the COVID investigation. Can we start
there?
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, there's a lot to talk about. Which one do you want to talk about?
ESG or the COVID-Betka.
Yeah, let's do that first.
The court granted your request to depose Anthony Fauci and also Jen Saki and others about the administration colluding with social media to suppress free speech.
Yeah, so we filed the lawsuit, and it's a landmark lawsuit when we filed it in the spring.
We've been fighting all summer to get discovery, which we've received.
and now we've got an order to take the depositions of Fauci and Saki under oath and others,
which is a big thing in this case to get to the truth.
Because as you know, Glenn, the First Amendment is the beating heart of our Constitution.
We're born with the right to speak our minds and have opinions and government's role
is to protect that right, certainly not to infringe upon that right.
And what we've seen, especially during COVID,
was a government outsourcing its censorship to big tech giants like Facebook and Twitter,
and Instagram. And through this discovery, in this lawsuit, we found out that they were holding
weekly censorship meetings, that senior Facebook officials were texting the Surgeon General of the United
States saying, hey, yeah, we took that one down. What else can we do? I mean, coordinating directly,
colluding directly with the government to silence people, to deflapped the platform them,
to, you know, to essentially silence them. And we also know that, you know, obviously Anthony Fauci was
a part of this.
Jin Saki was, you know, when she was press secretary, spoke openly about how they were
flagging post for Facebook.
And so now for the first time, we get a look under the hood.
We've actually got the documents to prove this was actually happening.
But on Friday, we got a court order to take Fauci's deposition.
And I just think, um, for a lot of reasons, Glenn, this is critical because what we saw
during COVID was, wasn't about the science.
We know that.
It wasn't about anything like that.
It was about power and control.
And if you dared to disagree, if you dared to have a dissenting opinion, I mean, they came after you.
And not just MSNBC and these, you know, crazies on the left, but the government.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
The government of the United States.
Correct, correct.
The government was using these, I mean, it is, it's a public private partnership between social media and the White House and the government.
And it's absolutely wrong.
you're investigating this. What is, what's the ramification if you can prove this in a court of law?
What, what happens? What's the penalty? Well, ultimately, we're seeking to enjoin it to stop it.
But I think, Glenn, maybe the most important work that could come from all of this. There's a lot of, I suppose, repercussions down the line.
But exposing this, because, you know, this would be the job of a press that wasn't so aligned, right, with the Biden administration.
And by the way, part of this investigation also is not just what was happening during COVID,
but, you know, we also are taking the deposition of, of a FBI official who has bragged on a podcast
about his working relationship with big tech and the Hunter Biden laptop story.
So all of these things that, you know, people were pointing out as this is, you know, this is unbelievable.
We can't believe this is happening in the United States of America.
This is Orwellian.
in this lawsuit, we get the opportunity to actually show documents, to show emails, to show text messages in these sworn depositions that will be taken.
What was actually happening?
And I don't care what your political stripe is going.
This ought to scare the bejesus on everybody.
I mean, this is the kind of stuff that you see happening in other countries, that if it was happening in other countries, our State Department would be warning us about the level of censorship and government action and authoritarianism.
and I think we have to stand up and we have to push back.
And, you know, I've been unafraid to do so and we're making progress.
Let me just tie it to the Senate.
Will you take this kind of stuff to the Senate?
And do you have enough allies in the Senate to get this on the table and on the agenda?
I hope so, but this is what I'm going to do.
I'm going to take the same fighting spirit I've had as Attorney General and take it to the Senate
because I think a very important role over the next two years.
assuming we take the majority, which will be very important, is this oversight role.
And you've got to have tough people who are unafraid to ask these questions.
And I've said, you know, when Fauci announced that his retirement in December, you know,
that should not excuse him from being, you know, called before Congress.
So Fauci ought to clear his calendar for 2023 because it's not just about the COVID censorship.
We still need answers on what he knew about the, you know, gain of function research,
his role with that, right, covering it up with the world health.
organization, not being honest with the American people, coordinating with the teachers' unions to
shut down schools and force five-year-olds to wear a mask. We cannot let this stuff ever happen again.
And the only way we're ever going to do that is to get answers, hold these people's feet to
the fire, and I'm committed to doing that. We ought to bring in senior justice department officials.
Why is our justice department is targeting, you know, political enemies? Why is it okay
for pro-life, you know, folks to be targeted? Why are parents being investigated under the Patriot Act
for showing up to school board meetings.
There's a lot of things we need to do,
but I'm going to be right in the center of a promise you that.
Eric Schmidt, who is running for U.S. Senate
and currently, Stu, beating his opponent, right, in the polls.
Yeah, it seems that way, although you can never be too sure.
Make sure you go out and vote.
Yeah, vote, vote, vote, vote.
Eric, I want to talk to you also hear about your work on ESG.
you have led 19 states in a coalition to launch an investigation into six major banks over ESG investing.
Tell me about this.
Yeah, I know, I know, Glenn, this is something you've been talking about for a very long time, and this is real.
And I think the American people are becoming more familiar with the term and what it means and what the repercussions could mean for the United States.
So, you know, six of the largest banks, we launched an investigation into them.
We issued subpoenas.
We launched that early last week
to get at their involvement in this net zero banking alliance.
And what is that?
It is a United Nations governs alliance among some of the biggest banks in the world.
And to put that in perspective,
they control about 40% of all the banking assets in the United States,
these six banks.
And what they've committed to do is to, by 2050,
in benchmarks all along the way,
have a portfolio that is a net,
carbon neutral portfolio.
What does that mean?
Well, it means that they're going to cut off lending and capital for oil and gas
and energy exploration, auto manufacturing, agriculture.
I mean, this is far-reaching, and it is not just about oil and gas.
I mean, this gets at everything.
For example, the farmer that has too many diesel-powered vehicles on his farm might not
get that loan.
I mean, this is incredibly scary stuff.
They've committed to it.
And so we've launched this investigation because this thing sounds a lot like anti-competitive behavior.
It sounds a lot like unfair trade practices.
And so Missouri's leading the charge with these other states to investigate this
and actually issue these subpoenas and get to the bottom of it.
Because what we're seeing right now with inflation, obviously, when you spend trillions
and you cut off in domestic energy supply and declare war in American energy,
you get higher prices for everything.
That's what we're seeing right now.
This is the long-term vision for that.
This is to make sure that, you know, this happens in the long run.
And everybody's going to pay a lot more for everything.
And it's also feeding away American sovereignty.
Big time.
The idea that the United Nations would be dictating who gets a loan,
what farmer gets a loan, what startup.
You know, we have all the energy we'll ever need in this country
to be energy dominant and to export that to our friends and allies around the world.
and this is a direct threat to that, no doubt.
So you sent a list of questions about, you know, you say you're part of the global climate initiative,
identify who made the decision to join, include any involvement or input from your board of directors,
investors covered companies in your reasoning, what exactly are you doing?
What is your participation level?
What are you expecting to find?
Well, we've launched it and we want to know more.
Because as I said, the legal issues here, this is not just, you know, we could object to this theoretically, rhetorically.
We can talk about the implications it could have for the economy.
All of those things are legitimate points of discussion, and I think you and I see eye to eye on that.
But these are legal documents, right?
These are civil investigative demands, essentially subpoenas, saying, you need to tell us more about this because we have laws in our state that might forbid this practice.
and so we want to get them on the record, find out what exactly, you know, the process has been for them internally.
Have they been working together on this?
Again, this is 40% of all the banking assets in the United States.
And it's not just 2050.
There are benchmarks all along the way that, again, will siphon off, cut off lending and capital for energy exploration.
The manufacturing of cars, you know, farm loans.
I mean, this is pretty far-reaching and deserves scrutiny.
So tell me about the election.
How are you doing so far?
How are you feeling?
I mean, we're in a good position.
I think we're in a strong position.
But I'm running against an heiress of the Anheiser-Bush fortune who ends out spending us right now.
And by the way, you can't make this stuff up when, you know, my dad worked at Anahezer-Bush seven days and week of the midnight shift.
I referenced that I actually in college.
gave tours and took out the trash at the estate that she grew up on.
The media hates this, right?
Because who said Blue Collar Roots,
who's fighting for working class families,
taking on an out-of-touch limousine liberal.
So that's obviously a difference in our backgrounds,
but also our beliefs.
When she's signed on to the Green New Deal,
she's campaigning to be the 51st vote for the Biden agenda
would be a total disaster.
It's for eliminating the filibuster packing the court.
And so, you know, we've got a tough race here
that we're going to continue to run through the tape
because getting the majority, getting to 51
certainly runs through Missouri.
And if, you know, people want to help,
they can text Schmidt at 30409.
We'd appreciate it.
We've got 14 days to save America here.
Go ahead.
I know, I know.
Doing everything I can.
I know.
By the way, she's outspending,
Eric, two to one.
And this is what's happening.
You know, Nancy Pelosi just came out a couple of days ago.
And they're just all this dark money is being poured in.
What are you talking about? The Democrats are outspending two and three to one in every case.
It's crazy, the amount of money that they're spending and doesn't look like it's working so far.
Thank you so much.
You know, go ahead.
We'll keep fighting, Glenn. Thanks. We'll keep fighting. Thanks for all that you do. And like I said, everything we talked about today and on your show previously, I'm going to take that same spirit to the Senate.
We need more reinforcements in Washington and I appreciate you having me on.
Thank you, Eric. Appreciate it. Eric Schmidt.
An attorney general I am most impressed with.
He has taken the bull by the horns on a few items and is relentless, just relentless.
And would be great to have that kind of a wake-up call in the Senate.
The best of the Glenn Beck program.
And greetings to you, thrill seekers, conversationalists, and music lovers all across the bountiful and optimistic, fruited plane.
It's the Rush Limbaugh program here on the Excellence in Broadcasting.
Podcasting Network. And greetings to you, thrill seekers, conversation.
Catherine Adams Limbaugh. Let me just explain who she is. She was born in Massachusetts.
She is a direct descendant from the Mayflower, direct lineage to John and John Quincy Adams.
Catherine has traveled to and lived in over 40 countries on five continents,
originally due to her mother's career as an American diplomat and her father's international
career following graduation from the Naval Academy. Throughout her youth, Catherine gained vast,
well-rounded experiences, routinely representing the United States abroad, liaisoning with heads
of state, ambassadors, and high-ranking military officers, while also witnessing human suffering
firsthand, including extreme poverty and disease. Early on, Catherine made it a lifelong
mission to help others in times of crisis, encourage people to reach their highest potential. At 15,
She taught English as a volunteer while living in a remote country in West Africa.
She translated for American military doctors who would set up field hospitals on missions
and raise funds for underprivileged children leading to a national recognition as Foreign Service teen of the year.
She is also the co-author of the number one New York Times bestselling Adventures of Rush Revere, American History Book series.
She also has been a major player and led major productions, part of significant charitable efforts, including Nelson Mandela Invitational in South Africa, the stand-up for Betsy Ross campaign with her husband, which raised over $5 million for families of first responders.
And of course, she has donated, along with her family now foundation, millions of dollars affected by cancer, illness, and hardship.
She was the one who told us on February 17th, 2021, that her husband had passed away.
She also said that his legacy would continue, and she is doing that in a couple of ways.
She is presenting the first ever American Patriots scholarship in honor of Rush,
and she's supporting American military heroes, police, first responders, and Gold Star families.
through their foundation. She is also her and her brother, David, I'm sorry, Rush's brother, David,
have put together a book, Radio's greatest of all time. Catherine, welcome.
Hello, Glenn. Goodness. What an introduction that certainly wasn't from the New York Times,
I don't believe. No, it was not from the New York Times.
I think they have a different version. You know, I was reading, I was reading,
your bio and I thought, this is hard to say, strange to say, but truly an equal to rush,
as far as accomplishments.
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
I don't know if I can agree in full, but thank you.
I truly appreciate it very, very much.
So the name greatest of all, radio's greatest of all time, is it true that that's what it says
on his death certificate?
Yes, we have to be on brand at all times.
Very important.
Very important.
Straight from start to finish.
But yes, it does.
Another thing that we wanted to do in a way to tweak the media as a final goodbye from Rush,
which we know he certainly would have loved.
But someone put that through, ironically.
I'm not sure who that poor person is that put it through.
But yes, yes, it is.
It's so, so fantastic under occupation, radio's greatest of all time.
I was there in the Capitol the night he got the Presidential Freedom Award.
And he always struck me.
I mean, he was bombastic on the air, you know, on loan from God.
But he always struck me as a very humble person.
in real life. And I could see that that really deeply moved him that night.
You know, he really was. He was incredibly brilliant and incredibly kind, fearless,
exceptionally talented in radio, of course. But he was truly gifted. But I believe one of his
attributes that we all love the most was he was so humble. He had the biggest heart. He was so
sincere. He never forgot the little guy. He never became too big. And he never really thought of himself
as Rush Limbaugh. He did on the radio, but not in real life, so to speak. He always tried to
have a better show the next day. He never thought that he accomplished the peaks that he did.
It was working so incredible. So yes, that actually in Boston, he had geared up to making
this announcement on the radio and thought that was basically it, that the secret was out,
and now he could go about his medical mission, so to speak.
And so we left for Boston right after that announcement that day, and there was a call
from the president when he was supposed to be going into surgery that said, in two night,
we thought, oh, well, we don't quite have the desire for that, or the mindset, but incredibly
tied. It meant everything to him, literally. Did he know that that was coming? Was it told to him in the
White House, or was that the moment that we all saw? Was that the moment he knew? He didn't know when we
flew up. He didn't know when the president was calling that morning. He only knew earlier in the
White House when we spoke with President Trump and their immediate family moment. He didn't know that it was
going to be awarded then and there. So everything came at him rapid fire and his emotions were so
sincere. He was actually not feeling well at all that evening. He was going into a pretty significant
surgery the next day. So just being awarded to him where it was in the form that it was meant
from Missouri, as he often said, he wanted to be on the radio from the time he was eight. Ever dreamed
that he would...
You know, his, I think Rush was, he felt the same way I feel about my audience.
And not every host feels this way.
They're like family.
And because you get to know each other.
While we're at a disadvantage, we don't really get to know the listener.
We kind of know, because if they've been with us for a long time, we know that they've, you know, they're self-selecting.
So they're kind of like us, you know.
Yeah.
How hard was it and how long did he have?
have to hide this from people that he was so sick?
It's really a surprise to him.
He really didn't have symptoms like other people may,
so he didn't find out until late January,
and he announced this in early February.
He didn't have to carry it too long, but...
How did he know?
What made him go to the doctor?
Celebrating his birthday,
and he didn't mention, as most husbands or men may not,
He didn't mention that he wasn't particularly feeling well.
We were celebrating his birthday.
And the very next day, he started to have difficulty, breathing.
He was having a heaviness in his chest.
He had pain in the back of his shoulder.
And I said, you know, this could be related to the heart
because he had had a heart issue at one point.
So I said to him, you know, we really should fly and see your doctor.
We were flying right over his doctor in Chicago.
And we found out then and there that it wasn't the heart
and that it was going to need a battery of tests.
And we didn't confirm it until probably a week or so later in Boston at Dana Farber.
And then from there, all of the treatment and so forth started.
But he did have to carry it for a period of time
because he wanted to deliver it in the best possible way.
And as you said, like you, his audience means everything to him.
a family figure, and he knew that they were going to take.
He had to hold it for a period of time, but not too long that potentially would get out in the news if we were a start tree.
You start the book with a conversation that you and Rush had in the hospital on January 12th, about a month before he died.
Yes.
Can you take us back to that?
Absolutely different, and that it doesn't read like a typical book.
It isn't a start and finish type of story.
It's more so some of the times I was recording him talking about reflections.
He started this book in early February of 2020.
And a lot of the time we were in the hospital during these conversations or these recordings.
And one of those conversations was about when it opens up where he was brought a donut by me for his birthday.
and he was reflecting on his time in Missouri as a young intern before he became the person that we all know as the famous Rush Limbaugh.
He was just a young kid with a dream hanging around a radio station in his hometown of Cape Dorado, Missouri,
because he used to be the young kid that would bring donuts, fresh baked donuts to the radio station there in his hometown.
So he was only about 15 or 16, but that brought him right back.
And he had never told that story before.
I happened to be recording it, and we transcribed it directly as he said it.
So it is amazing to me.
We're with Catherine Adams-Limbaud, and she has just put out a book that she and Rush started,
and then David came in, David Limbaugh, to help finish.
It's radio's greatest of all time.
when you're when you're looking through the book there is one thing that struck me i i've led a pretty
blessed life for the last 25 30 years and rush is actually the guy who gave permission for me to be
on the network at this time um and so he really actually started my career um but um i've had a
blessed career and i've met a lot of people but when you read this book my gosh
He knew the giants of history and conversed with them and worked with them.
When you came in and came into his life, with the experience you have,
was that a little odd for you too or not?
Is it just me?
Part was odd as much as how he was talked about in the mainstream media
and getting used to that portion of it,
because I came to know and knew who he was off of the radio
and who he was in person.
And I think the harder thing was knowing how he was talked about
when here he was able to relate to, as you said, the heads of state
or really anyone.
Reagan, That was his peer group.
That was his peer group.
And I think how he was talked about,
in the mainstream media was the heart of who he interacted with.
He was just the same.
He was the same person as talking on the radio.
He directly spoke to the American people in the same way that he spoke to the present
of the United States.
He was rushed through and through, which I love the most about him.
Did he ever get used to, or did he blow off all the horrible things that were said about him?
because if you're like my wife, my wife probably has a harder time with it than I do.
He always said that the media didn't make him and can't break him.
So I think that he took it as a measure of success.
He didn't ever particularly get used to it, but he said the more that they're talking and making things up,
I'm obviously effective.
So I tried to look at it in that way as well, but I definitely probably had a harder time.
than he did with some of the things that are worse said.
So what is, we have one minute.
Let me think if I can come up with a one minute question,
because I've got a lot of philosophical questions for you.
Real quick, how did you two meet?
We met long ago through friends when I was running a charity for Gary Player and the Nelson Mandela
invocational.
And did you know of, were you a fan of his on the radio or not?
I was a fan of his and became more and more a fan as time went on, but I did listen early on.
But I should just say quickly, Glenn, before we have to go, because I know we're short on time,
that proceeds from this book will benefit the children of fallen military heroes.
That is very important because this book in the country, Rush loves the American people in our country with all of his heart.
There's 14 days left for a very important election,
and I know Rush is still with us and talking to us through the book.
