Is this unusual for your dog to be this old? Or is this about how old they usually live to be? Oh, no. This is unusual. I mean, this dog won't die. He's like a walking dead. We just actually did like a, you know how you cut through trees and look for tree rings to try to figure out how old a dog is?

We went back through, almost. We went back through old emails and photos to try to determine how old he was because we've been saying, I know, 16, I think 17. We did find out he turned 18 on either December or January. We're not 100% sure. 18. I don't know. I don't know. That's just might be he lives by a nuclear power plant or by it.

Of course, they're saying that in Ohio

too. And while I tend to believe so far that that's the case in Detroit, you know, the New York Times is rushing to the defense of the government and the rail company saying, oh, you know, these conspiracy theories that, you know, this is going to cause real environmental problems. It's all coming from the right. What? Now we're the ones too concerned about the planet?

Unbelievable. Actually, that's the best part of it. Wait until you hear what Biden did yesterday. explain it any other way than, yeah, this is his work and glory to destroy America. It's not incompetence. It's not senility. This is a plan. And I'll explain in 60 seconds.

All right. Let me tell you about good ranchers. Did you see that eggs are now more expensive than a pound of beef? Yay. First time ever, right? We've done it. Yeah. Yeah, all right.

Eggs number one. Eggs number one. Love that. But, you know, I just keep thinking to myself, thank goodness we are one step closer to crickets. Anyway, if you don't like the cricket idea and you don't like your food prices going through the roof, how about you lock in your meat prices right now? Chicken, beef, lock them in. You can do that with good ranchers.

And you can save an American ranch and farm. I don't know. That sounds pretty good. I know that's not the popular thing to do right now to say, hey, you cannot pay as much as you're paying at the grocery store. You'll get better quality. And it's grass fed. And here in America, it's going to support and make our ranches stronger. I know that's not the way of the world now.

but I say we go there. Good Ranchers.com. Great American quality, beef and chicken from American ranchers. Go there now. Good Ranchers.com slash Beck. Use the promo code Beck and save $30 off your order. It is promo code Beck at good ranchers.com.

All right. So, Stu, help me make sense of this story. Republican governor. Mike DeWine said he has not seen Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg at all, at all. Now, I'm sure he has seen him on TV, not talking about Ohio. I'm sure he's seen him, you know, at some point in his life, maybe, but since the train derailment, nothing. I mean, he probably saw him on TV talking about how there weren't enough black people in construction jobs. Yeah, of course he saw that.

I saw that. Yeah. That's an important thing to talk about. Liar, Mike. What a liar. Anyway, and then yesterday, the Biden, I'm going to read this verbatim. The Biden administration has turned down Republican Ohio governor Mike DeWine's request for federal disaster assistance for the trained arailment. The federal emergency management agency, otherwise known as FEMA.

Have you ever heard of them? have heard of it. Yeah, okay. They said that... Too many white people working there, too. They said that Ohio is not eligible to receive assistance because the incident didn't classify as a national disaster. The rejection came nearly two weeks after the Norfolk Southern train, which carried harmful chemicals, derailed.

2,000 residents were evacuated, blah, blah, blah. FEMA classifies a national disaster declaration as when there is property damage caused by a tornado flood, hurricane, or earthquake. The state currently does not have any associated costs that could demonstrate to FEMA to be able to get a disaster declaration because the train cars didn't cause any power outages, block any roads, or impede residence property. That's a quote from FEMA. It didn't impede residents' property? I mean, they had to evacuate. They're just saying that everything's fine. If you go back there, if you want.

Right. That's their claim. I mean... Just check it out. Just check it out. We're not saying, you know, we're just saying, do you get your Vax? If you got your Vax. Did the vaccine work for this, too?

Well, I don't know about that. We're trained derailments? I just don't want them going back if they haven't had their vaccine. You know what I mean? Right. But they could spread COVID to each other. But if you have your vaccine, go back in. You're fine.

You're good. The federal government has nothing to do with your puny little life there. What? Train, you know, big toxic clouds. Okay, so. Why? Are they trying to say it's just not FEMA's purview? Like, I mean, if we had a chemical fire somewhere.

Tell me the time that FEMA has not chomped at the bit to come into your community to take over. Right. I mean, that's the way... But our, like, their line there seems to be, it's not a natural disaster. And we only deal with natural disasters. Is that... Is there another government agency, another alphabet collection of letters that's supposed to come in and deal with chemical accidents?

No. Well, the EPA is there. But this is... Are they helping? What they're trying... Oh, yes, they are. Oh, they are. Okay.

They're saying... on back in. Everything's fine. Come into the water. Just, you know, take a net and scoop all those dead fish off of the surface of the water. Right. They died from something else, I'm sure. Some of them seem to sprout wings and fly out of the river onto your property, but just scoop

them up. Right. They're dead now. Right. And if you don't scoop them up, they're going to grow feet. Right. And so. You do not want the fish feet.

No. Fish feet around your property is going to lower property values. Your Zillow thing is going to go through the floor. Now, let me give you this story from the New York Times. By the way, I'm leading someplace. And it's a happy place. Is it Fish Feet? Does us all come back to Fish Feet?

So here's the headline from the New York Times. Now listen to this story. Chernobyl 2.0. Ohio train derailment spurs wild speculation. So this story is about the conspiracy theories that are coming from conservatives. Yeah, conservatives. Yes. Wait a minute.

We finally found an ecological issue that the New York Times is downplaying. Yes. There finally is one. Oh, yeah. Every time there's an oil spill of like three drops, they send 12 reporters to the scene to look for any bird that has oil on their feathers. There is a snowstorm, and it's because of your hair spray. Right. Okay.

All right. Since a train carrying hazardous materials derailed in Ohio nearly two weeks ago, writes the New York Times, residents have feared for their safety. A controlled burn of toxic materials has filled the air and covered surface waters with soil and soil with chemicals. Dead fish have floated in nearby creeks and an unnerving aroma has lingered in the air. Okay. This is a lot of, right. This is a lot of evidence. But for many commentators from across,

the political spectrum. The speculation has gone far beyond known facts. Right-wing commentators have been particularly critical using the crisis to so distrust about government agencies and suggest that damage could be irreparable. You mean like we have to act on global warming and completely destroy all of any kind of model. living and eat bugs within the next 10 years or the earth will be destroyed forever? You mean that kind of irreparable? On social media like Twitter and Telegram commentators have called the situation the largest environmental disaster in history or simply Chernobyl 2.0 invoking the 1986 nuclear disaster.

By the way, let's go back and see how the press reacted to. the three-mile island accident. Remember? That was the greatest nuclear meltdown of all. Nope. Nope. Nothing was measured in the air. Nothing.

Nothing. Yeah, the worst side effects of that incident were the equivalent of a full set of chest x-rays. Correct. And that they made in, they stopped nuclear energy. Yeah. Because of that.

And arguably caused if you want to believe their narrative, or at least their outcomes, they're not going to give this narrative, but arguably caused the problems that we had with global warming today. Correct. Right?

They shut down the nuclear industry, so we had to go to other... Stay on fossil fuels. And if in their world, this is what's caused all the problems. Correct. Which, by the way, that means they caused all the problems.

Well, isn't that the way progressives work? They cause the problems and then try to fix the problems that they caused, which causes more problems, which they then try to, to fix those. It's a never-ending series chain of events. They warned, they said. They warned, without any evidence, that vital water reservoirs serving states down river could be badly

contaminated. Keyword there could. And they suggested that the authorities, railroad companies, and mainstream news media were purposely obscuring the full toll of the crisis. Right, because when have you ever done that mainstream media, government, or railroad companies? You've already had several bits of information that have come out that different chemicals were on board that we didn't know about initially. There were more effects than we thought. Of course, people are going to speculate that there's even more than what they've told us. Stu, please read the New York Times.

It says right here. Glenn, I read the New York Times all the time. No. And the New York Times, every single time, there's any sort of. Any sort of chemical that leaks anywhere on the planet. They say it's going to be a catastrophe. This is the entire paper is basically based on someone dripped some chemical 3,000 miles away. But those were disasters.

This is not. Listen. This is fine. Since then, the EPA has said air quality is returned to safe levels. Residents have been allowed to return. Yeah, a chemical order lingers because people can smell the contaminants. even when they are far below hazardous concentrations. It's all according to the EPA.

That's what it says right here. Water testing found no indication of risk to public water system so far. The EPA said through private, though private wells should be tested. But the public water, fine. The private water are not sure. Utilities drawing from the Ohio River were taking precautions, at least one company said. At town hall meetings on Wednesday, frustrated residents pressed officials for assurances that the air and water were safe. Experts urged caution as they assessed the long-term consequences, warning that airborne contaminants can settle on surfaces,

seep into wells and migrate through cracks in basements to homes. Yet influencers and right-wing commentators were quick to draw the concateners. conclusion of their own, theorizing about the extent of damage and the federal response, which they say have amounted to an extensive cover up. This makes no sense. Well, how could the New York Times be taking this side of the story? I mean, there's a good argument to be made. Like, this happens a lot, right?

You have an accident like this. And it is a pretty natural series of events that people who live close by are incredibly worried about it because they can smell stuff in the air and they're worried about what's going on with their water. They're worried if their children are going to die or develop cancer next week. All really rational fears. And then maybe some scientific experts come in and say, we don't think it's a risk.

When that series of events occurs, the New York Times always sides with the families. Always sides against the companies. Always says, actually, we found some person, this one random person who has this effect. It's not proven to be connected, but we're going to say it's connected anyway. They always, always side with the freaking out side of this argument.

And for this one time, this one incident, they're now all the sudden all on board with nothing's gone on. Okay. Well, if you... Isn't this weird? Seriously, isn't this weird? No, you have no example of that. Let me give you, let me give you an unrelated story. Headline, Russian pipeline leaks, spark climate fears as huge.

volumes of methane spew into the atmosphere every time what is methane that's natural gas natural gas keyword natural okay it seeps out into the atmosphere all the time because it's coming from the earth and it's natural gas not man-made chemicals that that are not meant to burn that they just set on fire. No, no, no, no. This is natural gas. It's, they call it methane, which is also what comes out of the butt and the mouth of a cow that they say, God created all of this.

This is a master plan. This is an incredible thing. But what he didn't know is that he actually created animals that live. on the planet that spew a toxic chemical that will make their entire planet die. That's what, yeah, yeah. Well, if you don't believe in God, you believe in, you know, natural evolution. Well, if the cow and the farts from animals is toxic to the planet, well, evolution will figure that out.

No, no, no. Methane, natural, natural, not chemicals in the sky. Again, used, made for World War I. Setting those on fire? No, it's not a problem. Climate scientists acknowledge that it's hard to accurately quantify the exact size of the emissions and, say, leaks are, quote, a wee bubble in the ocean compared to the massive. amounts of methane emitted around the world every day. Nonetheless, environmental campaigners

argue the incident reaffirms the risk of sabotage or accident makes fossil fuel infrastructure a ticking time bomb. Wow. But you in Ohio? Now, I'm going to tie this together. I'll tell you what, I think this, what's really going on here in 60 seconds. Just about every day on this program, I share experiences of real people with you, people who have their lives change by taking relief factor, and I'm one of them. I can honestly say, I don't think I would be here today if it wasn't for relief factor. That is an honest statement. I told my wife, I don't know how I'm going to live this way and continue to go on and do this. I mean, I was in my mind, I'm settling for, I'm going to live this way the rest of my life. What moments I have that's not in pain, I'm going to enjoy them with

my family. And before, you know, I said, I have that decision to make honey this next year. We have to talk about it. And she said, have you tried Relief Factor? This is an honest to God conversation. Have you tried Relief Factor? No, it's not going to work for me. It's all natural, blah, blah, blah. I've been to the Mayo Clinic. Really? Something that's not a drug. It's all natural and advertised on radio and TV. That's going to fix it. Well, I don't want to hear you whine about it if you won't try everything. So I tried it. Three weeks later, I said, it's not working.

But I didn't notice I was dismissing that I was feeling better thinking I was just in a good period. Then I stopped taking it. And all of it came rushing back. That's my experience with relief factor. Want to give it a whirl? Get out of pain. What if it works? 70% of the people who try, go on to order more month after month.

Relieffactor.com. Try the three-week quick start. Exactly the same thing I did. Relieffactor.com. 800, the number four relief. Relief factor. Feel the difference. 10 seconds, station ID.

Okay, so let me tell you exactly what I think is going on. These people do not care about the things they say they care about. That's all a sham. it's all a sham. This whole global warming thing. Look, first it was global, no, first it was global ice age coming when I was growing up. It was an ice age. Then it was global warming.

Now it's global climate change because it's going different ways. Okay. Now you can't predict it. But they were absolutely sure you could predict it just a few years ago that it was going to be warming. Now we can't predict it, but we can predict that it's going to be unpredictable. Oh, okay. It's a sham. Now, I believe climate is always changing.

We may be in a new period, but all the rest of it is bull crap for control. Otherwise, they would care about this just as much as they care about everything else. But see, this one has politics involved. This is a red state. This is a state where they don't care about. They'll rush FEMA any place, any place. Well, not to the border here where we're being overrun. Not to Ohio where the skies are on fire.

No, no, no. These people honestly don't care about any human condition. condition, except for their condition of power. The Glenn Beck program. All right. Our sponsor this F hour is Patriot Mobile. It'd be really great if you didn't need to build a parallel economy in this country. But the need has arisen.

I haven't even gotten to half of that monologue that I wanted to do there. We have got to have a parallel economy because we're headed in two different directions. and God only knows. But Patriot Mobile is one of the founding cornerstones. They are one of them that came out and they're way ahead and they're the only Christian conservative wireless provider. They don't hate you. They like you. They work in your community.

By the way, just doing a quick search of the FEMA website, you'll come to remember FEMA doesn't cover this. I mean, it's, you know, it's a chemical spill. First of all, those of that's, the trains are regulated by the federal government. But you can just look up ESF number 10. That is emergency support function number 10, particularly for oil and hazardous material response.

So I guess FEMA does have a way to get in there. but the president just won't do it. It just doesn't qualify. Man, they wish they could be there? You bet you they do. You bet you they do. But they just can't see their way through all of the red tape. You know, that's just crazy.

I want to take you to now a guy who I have read is possibly, well, people are trying to draft him to run for president. And I have to tell you, even if he doesn't win or wouldn't run to try to win, but just try to get everybody to understand ESG, I support his candidacy. Vivek Rameshwamy is with us now. He is an anti-ESG crusader and has really made a lot of inroads with strive.com. Check it out.

He's with us now. you're also an Ohio resident. Any thoughts on what's happening? I mean, it's very sad what's happened, Glenn, and I watched Pete Buttigieg effectively imply that this has gotten too much attention. That's an affront, and I think it just reveals why people here and people across the country do not trust the establishment in Washington, D.C. And you know, the funny thing is I've seen both sides of it, right? I was born and raised in Ohio. I'm talking to you from Ohio today. I also went to school with Pete Buttigieg. We were at Harvard together. We overlapped with each other. And the dirty little secret is that if this had happened in Washington, D.C. or in New York City, the response would have been dramatically different.

And the people here know it. And that's what fuels this cycle of distrust. And unfortunately, I'm sad to say that distrust exists for good reason. We need to put new leaders in charge. And it's just, you know, most importantly, I think that community has been as brave as they possibly can be. But it's also revealed the divide between the aristocracy and D.C. and the rest of the country. I mean, the Pete Buttigieg comments, all of them, are just so dismissive. And, you know, let's say even that he's not, but let's just say he was right.

You still don't say that. You go to the town and comfort them and then give them some hard news. But they just are like, was everybody looking at this for? Why? Keep driving. Exactly. And I think it's about self-protection. because initially he was embarrassed that this was a bigger deal than expected. He's just come off another

crisis with respect to grounding flights because of software glitches. So he thought this made him look bad, sweep it under the rug, even if the people are left to suffer as a consequence. Now if that refuses to happen, and thank you to the people in this town and across the country who have stood up to say this is a big deal, now is actually almost implicitly blaming the people who are actually casting attention on what's an important situation. Okay. I just see this as a symptom, Glenn, of a deeper problem in our country. So let me throw another log on this fire here. I checked the ESG score of Norfolk Suffolk.

Railway. They have a higher ESG score than Tesla does, and their E is a lower threat, according to their score, than their S is. They're pretty good on the environment. What? This is laughable, Glenn, and it reminds me exactly of FPX on one small, on an ESG scoring mechanism, scoring better than Exxon Mobil. This is a farce, and you put three-letter acronyms about it. What's it designed to do? It's designed to hide the essence of what's actually happening. And, you know, these companies, and working hand-in-glove with the government to do it, are deflecting accountability from the topics they'd rather not be scrutinized for.

instead talking about environmental and social issues instead. By the way, using the money of everyday citizens to advance those agendas without their knowledge. And you and I know that well. That is the defining fraud of our time. But that, too, Glenn, is just a symptom of a deeper cancer in this country where we've lost our national identity. People who are supposed to run the show are not the ones who elect to run the government are not the ones actually running the show, running the actual government today. that's a new bureaucracy combined with new titans to be in the private sector, and that's the real problem we need to solve.

Okay, so tell me how you solve that, Vivek. Look, I think there's a top-down version of this, and there's a bottom-up version of it. The top-down version is we need to get the state and capitalism out of each other's hair. That is fascism. You combine state power with corporate power to do what neither can do on its own. That is Mussolini's definition of fascism, and that's the state of affairs. in modern America today, I'm sorry to say it. So what I say is if it is state action in disguise, if the government is using private companies, either through the ESG agenda or through free speech

regulation in Silicon Valley to do through the backdoor what government couldn't do directly, then those companies in those situations ought to be bound by the same constraints as the federal government itself. That includes the First Amendment to the Constitution in the United States if you're a tech company, for example. So I have a lot of ideas for top-down fixes here. I think we should make political expression of civil right in this country so long as we have other protected classes as well. But if we're honest with ourselves, Glenn, we also have to look ourselves in the mirror. Each of us do, you do, I do. Every person listening to this does and ask ourselves, what is it within us that causes us to want to bend the knee to these new monarchs? It's like the Israelites, why they

want to go back and be ruled by Pharaoh. There's something innate and human nature about it. And I just think we are so hungry for purpose right now in America that we need a conservative move. that fills that vacuum of purpose and identity with a vision of national identity that dilutes this poison to irrelevant. And that's an important part of the conversation. I will tell you, the left just heard what you said, and they would love, they're going to call you absolutely a nationalist and a fascist. I mean, forget about the actual meaning of those words.

But a nationalist identity, what are you talking about? What is the vision we should all be working toward? Revive the ideals that set this nation into motion. Basic ideas, even like merit, that you get ahead in this country, not as the color of your skin, but as MLK said, on the content of your character and contributions, I mean, that means getting rid of this national cancer of affirmative action. Merit in government, making sure the people we elect to run the government are the ones who actually run the government, not this cancerous bureaucracy that,

multiplies itself like a like a metastasizing tumor. I'd say meritocracy and ideas, Glenn. The best ideas win when, when no ideas are censored. Merit in who gets into this country. I see this as a first generation American myself. My parents were immigrants. We should want more people like them, but not people whose first act of entering this country is a law-breaking one. Those are just basic rules of the road. They're not even democratic ideas or Republican ideas. They are American ideas. And you kind of call that nationalist. it nationalist, we then, if we shore up that vision, those basic ideas, then and only then can we take on the actual threats we face externally, like communist China, which is not going to be easy

to address. And I have views on how to do this. But I think we can make the sacrifices needed to address communist China to declare independence from communist China, to do the kinds of things we're going to have to do if we shore up our national identity within. And that's what I'm on a mission to do one way or another. Vivek, you know, you look at China. I think we are marching toward war. This is exactly what happened at World War I. A group of Fabian socialists wanted to change all of Europe, get rid of the old structure. They said it was going to be great.

They saw the potential for a war. They went all in thinking that it could be short and it will be enough pain to cover the collapse and the restructuring of the world. I think that's exactly what's happening. And I think just like they were wrong in World War I, they're wrong this time. This could be very catastrophic, just catastrophic. This could be bad. This could be really bad, Glenn. I have one note of optimism.

And I think we're working within a short window here for that optimism. Xi Jinping has shot himself in the foot through self-inflicted damage to get that third term last October. When he took that unprecedented third term as leader of the CCP, that opens. up a short window for us, I believe, to defeat China economically so that we will never have to militarily. I do not think that window's going to be open for long. But I call for total declaration of independence from China, total decoupling. I think that that is the declaration of independence of the 21st century, because unlike the Soviet Union, in the last Cold War, they never provided the shoes on our feet or the phones in our pocket. China powers our modern way of life. But if we

pull the economic rug from under them right now, they're in a vulnerable spot. Glenn. And to me, to the extent I pull the trigger and actually pursue this path, that would be one of the big reasons to do it is I think we're working within a short window where we can actually do that if we can get it right. It will involve sacrifice. I'm going to tell you that bluntly. There's not a rosy picture. There will be inconveniences involved for Americans. But our moment demands you use World War I analogy. I'll use a World War II one. We need Churchill, not Chamberlain. And we don't, I think we have a short window where we don't have to go to war if we can defeat them economic by achieving independence.

Man, you sound like a guy who is going to run for president. I'm thinking about it, Glenn. I'm thinking about it. And I'm thinking about seriously. But it's not about me. It's not about the person. It really shouldn't be. It should be about the what and the why.

And I could care less who it is. If it's a great person who doesn't have the right agenda, it doesn't matter to me. I think we need to define the agenda, define why we're doing what we're doing. That's what I care about. You and I both care about. I know that both of us. And the question of the who then just becomes a lot easier after we've defined. find those things. That's what I'm most focused. I have to tell you, I support you,

110 percent. You are outside the system. You are very successful at what you've done. You have identified all of the right problems. You have worked to actually solve them yourself through the private sector. I think you get it. You know, I'm not endorsing anybody for president at all. I think there's a lot of good people out there. However, the voice that is. The voice that you could bring to the table, even if you didn't win, you could shape the platforms of the party. I think it's very important, actually, that you run. Just wanted you to know. I just say, I appreciate that.

Let's rediscover what America is. That's what I care about. If we do that, I'm happy. Vivek Ramoswamy. Thank you so much, sir. Appreciate it. Appreciate it. God bless.

He's running. Well, no, he's seriously considering it. Just a serious consideration. He's running. All right, let me tell you about Car Shield. He's not jokingly considering it. He's seriously considering. Yeah.

I don't make sure you understand the consideration level there. I don't really understand the difference there. But anyway, let me tell you about Car Shield. If you have problems and you've got a car with, you know, five miles or 150,000 miles on it, if your car doesn't have a warranty, you need car shield, car shield. You know, when your car goes down now, we're talking thousands of dollars in repair because of just chips. You know the price of a used car right now. You've got a car.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We're so glad that you're here. Let me give you something else on showing you how much these compassionate, compassionate people really care about individuals. John Fetterman. John Fetterman is now back in the hospital for depression. This is what third or fourth time since he got into office? So, well, I think there's the first that he's been in for depression. For this. Yes.

But he's been in the hospital multiple times. Over time. And why? Why is he most likely depressed? because he's in a job that he cannot understand. He can't do it. And my guess is he knows that. Of course.

And now he is, now he's in this position where he is realizing how disabled he really is. Does the left care? Do they care about him at all? Is anybody going to apologize saying we shouldn't have pushed him into this? This guy, I mean, I feel bad for him. him today. I feel bad for him today. I don't like him. I don't, I mean, he was part of the decision, but I don't wish this on anybody. The guy went in. He, he's not able to do the job, according to doctors. Does the left care? Did they care about that then? Do they care about that now? No.

No. No. I mean, it's just unfortunate because if we had any evidence that this could be the case before the election, voters in Pennsylvania could have made a different choice. Yeah. But they had no information to indicate that this guy couldn't do this job other than all information. The only thing they had was every available piece of information. And that's not enough to make a decision. I will tell you, but people want to believe what they want to believe.

And the Democrats and his campaign and everybody else, they kept him out of the limelight until the very end. Until the very end. Yeah, but they, I mean, look, there's no excuse. Everybody saw that debate. everybody knew he couldn't do this job. He already had the winning vote in the bank by then. Well, I mean, he did have a lot of early vote, but still, there's no excuse to be made here for Pennsylvania and what they did. This is one of the most embarrassing spectacles that voters have

ever participated in. I just want to show you, though, the human cost. They don't care about the individual. They don't care about the individual. Everyone is nothing more than upon a chess piece that can be taken if it supports the move of the king. This is true. Diane Feinstein's a good example of this, right? She's currently in the Senate. She announced her retirement. A reporter came up and said,

So what made you want to retire? And she said, I'm not retiring. We haven't released a statement on that. And then her aide had to say, yes, we have. Yes, we have. We released that yesterday. Oh, we have? Oh, okay.

Yesterday she was walking out of a vote. and she was overheard asking her aide, did I vote for that? That is something, though, Glenn, where you say, this woman's been in office since 1857. She's been there forever. She won, obviously, just on name recognition. At one point in her career, when she was senator,

she was a terrible senator, but lucid, right? That changed over time, like Woodrow Wilson was being propped up in the office. Okay, maybe you can understand that. All of this stuff with Federman happened before the vote. He wasn't even the senator yet. Everyone knew this was going on and they elected him anyway. It's inexcusable.

But again, they don't care about the individual. She's replaceable. She's replaceable. Use her until there's nothing left to use. It's despicable, reprehensible and inhuman.

We have a story that came out yesterday.

Former J.P. Morgan executive, Jess Staley, discussed Disney princesses with Jeffrey Epstein in July 2010 in an email exchange. Now, this is coming because there's a lawsuit in a court filing by the U.S. Virgin Islands Attorney General and the acting Attorney General. wasn't this attorney general the one that filed the suit and then was fired, and so they replaced him with another attorney general. So that shows you corruption just right there. Okay. So the exchange in the email was about the young women and girls procured by Epstein for the former J.P. Morgan Chase executive. Okay. He went to his. properties, Epstein's properties in the Virgin Islands.

They were discussing the women and young girls procured. And they used the names of Disney princesses. And at one point, Epstein was like, hey, next time, which princess? And he was like, hey, check out Snow White. I think it's Snow White. Okay. They were sending explicit photos to each other and everything else. Now, this guy is very well known.

Epstein, very well known. He's friends with Epstein. We know about their relationship, just like we know about the relationship with Microsoft founder and the guy who's currently redesigning our world and our health, Bill Gates. We know that Bill Gates,

his wife, one of the reasons why he, his wife left him, apparently is because he would not distance himself from Epstein. Now, there are pictures of this J.P. Morgan Chase executive on the island with Epstein and Bill Gates. Now, are you telling me, they flew down to the island and Snow White and the other princesses were paraded around for the JP Morgan. a J.P. Morgan Chase executive. And Epstein was doing the parading with the girls. And where was Bill Gates?

He was working on software because there's pills for that now, Bill. You can take that. And the software and hardware, they become one again. But once again, sponsored by Pfizer. It is Pfizer. Pfizer. It is incomprehensible. that we do not know who these Johns were.

And let me say it this way. If that little black book of Epstein's contained only the names of truck drivers, conservative commentators and diner restaurant owners, do you think any of those names would not be known today? We have a good example of this recently with Matt Gates. who they accused of all sorts of things and then went through all the investigations and did not find anything to charge him with. Right. Right. So they'll charge anything. They'll do anything to smear you. We knew his name. Every all the, every accusation was out on the table immediately.

So we don't know. We don't know the facts that they know. And we're never going to know. We're never going to know. But I'm telling you if they were all, you know, people that were in red states, all those names. would be known. One guy would be like, I fix the furnace. I'm only in his little black book because the furnace has problems and when it goes down, I go through a basement door that only leads to the furnace room and I fix the furnace. I have nothing to do with it. He would be known as a pedophile. But the wealthy, the connected, they can get away with child rape and somehow or another no one seems to care. Why?

Because you don't know. That's a conspiracy theory. You don't know who these people are. You don't know what Bill did it. Well, no one's looking into it. And that causes one to go, why? Why? Because if we knew it was somebody that nobody knew in a red state,

they would be smeared if not in prison today. And if they were, if they had done something with children, they should be in prison. So why isn't this happening? I don't think it's just to protect the elite. I really don't. I don't think that it is just because Bill Gates and Bill Clinton were flying on his plane in a totally innocent way. I don't think that's what it is.

I think that's part of it. But I think the real target is, is the intelligence apparatus of America. I believe that Jeffrey Epstein, this guy doesn't go from nobody to where he was, connected with so many powerful people doing this kind of stuff. Believe me, if I'm in your home, you're flying me on your jet to your island,

where I'm spending a week, I have the security that checks them out six ways to Sunday. I know whose house I'm going to if I'm staying for a week. I know. And I get a briefing before I decide to book it on the calendar. Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Soft book that, but leave room for an excuse. And security is looking at them, getting all the information.

Then they come to me and say, okay, these are the rumors. This is what's happening. This is what we think might be happening. We recommend you don't go. But it's up to you, sir. And then it is up to me. You're telling me that Bill Gates doesn't have security like that. They could look deeper than Glenn Beck's security could.

Are you telling me that all of these people, President Clinton with Secret Service detail, they didn't know anything about what was going on in that island? Bull crap, you'll never convince me of that. Never. And I know because I live in that world just on the edges of it, of having intel that the average person doesn't have. I don't have their clearance or their access to information. I barely have anything.

Right. Like if you're the pool guy who works on this island, you're going to be excused for potentially not knowing everything that was going on. Correct. You're Bill Gates. You're going to have a really good idea. You know. You know. Or at least you have been severely warned.

And then when that person does go to jail the first time, you immediately go, okay, guys, you were right. I'm out. I'm out. I'm out. I'm out. I'm right. Okay. So what is this Epstein thing?

Who are they really protecting? Because I no longer believe that it is just the people like Clinton. I think they're protecting. I don't know. CIA, NSA. I think this guy was a government operative operating honey traps. And if you think that doesn't happen, that happens in the spy world all the time. All the time.

That's how they get leverage over people. And I have experience with that as well. I have, thank God, been in a position to where this. This has happened and thank God I was living the principles of what I truly believe. Otherwise, I would have been done. I would have been an enemy to this state. I was at Fox. And people were going through my garbage, you know, investigated.

And I had been investigated before the first time. Well, I don't want to say who was doing it. First time it was on the left. Okay. And I know the company that was doing the investigation. They're the big lefty company. Okay. And they search everything.

They look for anything. Okay. Thank God I was clean in anything that I had ever done wrong. I had confessed to you a long time ago. I'd be like, I was a dirt bag. Okay. And I'm a recovering dirt bag. and I'm trying to be better.

So I had no fear. They're going through my garbage. They're going through all kinds of stuff. And I'm like, what do they think they're going to find? My wife and I actually laughed about it. You're very boring. I'm extraordinarily boring. The best thing they could find was an old historical document that you may have thrown out by mistake.

Right. So then I'm at Fox. And the event at the mall happens with, in Washington, D.C. 500,000 people show up. Rupert Murdoch calls me to his office. What are your intentions? What are you going to do with all this power?

I'm like, what are you talking about? You're running for president? No, I'm not running for president. You're running for president. No, I'm not running for president. I don't want that. Okay, I just ask people to gather just to bring hope to the country. They didn't believe me.

Somebody starts investigating me again. And they go through my garbage, all of it. Same group of people. people, different employer. You draw your own conclusions. In a meeting that I had about two months later, I knew they had nothing because I don't have anything. I'm boring. And I sit down at a desk and Roger Ailes pulls out a stack, at least a foot, a stack of papers and folders. I come in and he said, you know, we've got to have a serious talk. And I said, okay. And he comes down, he puts a stack of papers on his desk, all in folders. And then he kind of pets it like a little kitty cat. And he says,

you know, a lot of people would like to see you pulled down. I said, I know. He said, and there's a lot of people that do anything to get information on you. I said, I know. Good thing. I'm really boring. and he said, well, and then he petted the little file. Well, you know, Glenn, it's always a horrible thing when a man has a wife like you have. Now I am just on fire. The hair is standing up on the back of my neck and I lean in and grab the edge of his desk and I said, why is that always trouble?

And he said, well, because a man will step out and do something, and it's, you know, it's human nature, and it can really hurt a good woman like that. And I looked at him straight in the eye, and with all the calmness that I could muster, I said, it sure is, Mr. Ayles, and that is exactly why nothing like that has ever,

happened and then we had like a third grade stare down for had to be at least a minute felt like an hour had to be at least a minute where his eyes didn't move my eyes didn't move and I know the first person who speaks loses and I wouldn't speak I had already said the truth and I stared at him across the desk behind those papers yeah I know and he picked up the papers and put him down by the side of his desk and he said, just be careful. I've lived in this world on the very edge. I'm not even into the cheese part of the cheesy crust part of the pizza. I'm at the very, very edge of the crust of living in that world.

This is not being exposed because this guy most likely was an operative. And oh, that's a conspiracy theory. Yes, so was. that the CIA knew about or were involved with Lee Harvey Oswald, which gang, they kept saying was a conspiracy theory until this year. Did you hear that announcement? The CIA had Lee Harvey Oswald on their books. He was an operative.

Now, that doesn't mean they killed him, but they were using him. they knew about him he was current it was not like oh we used him 10 years ago he was currently an operative and they covered that up

what do you think these agencies were made for to go get our enemies but they're not being used to get our enemies anymore because the deep state defines who an enemy is now it used to be an enemy was someone who would not protect and defend the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

That is no longer our enemy. It remains my enemy. Back in a minute. Mouth is a little dry. Jane wrote in about her experience with relief factor. She said, I had so much back pain. I could barely walk after back surgery. I went to physical therapy.

I didn't get any relief. I've had to use canes. I've used a walker. I decided, what, I don't have anything to lose. I'm going to try Relief Factor. She said, I basically have no pain. I go to the gym now, more or less, pain free. Thank you, Relief Factor.

800, the number four relief. Relieffactor.com. Feel the difference. Do I need a drink? Not a drink, not a drink. What is in that styrofoam? You know, this is all I asked for for my birthday. All I wanted was, because I go to Sonic just for their, you know, Diet Coke.

And so I go to Sonic and my wife will go from time to time. She'll be driving by and she'll grab a Coke from Sonic. And then I use that cup all day long. I'm such a germaphobe. I don't like Yeti cups because it's just, you're ready to me? All I wanted. All I wanted was a bunch of styrofoam cups. from Sonic, just a big box, go and just, that's all I want.

Just styrofoam cups from Sonic, because I love them, and I don't have to wash them. And they're killing the earth and dolphins. So, I mean, everybody's a winner here. You know what I'm saying? So that's why. Let me just take a, because my mouth is a little dry after that. What? We're on.

You didn't know that? Well, I was going to say, I thought you were going to, I mean, that's what, did you get them? You keep talking about it, but did you? get them. No. Nobody in my life. Thought I was serious. They're like, can't get dead that. Yeah, that's what Dad wants. Those are some of the best cups. With the ice. You've got to get the ice

too. The ice is key. Sonic Ice is nothing better. I know. I mean, living in the Northeast, there was no sonics, at least back in the day. And then they bring them down. When we moved down here, all of a sudden, it's just... Everywhere here. Oh. They're great. They're so good. That's a scene from the firm, you

know. That exact scene happened. Yeah. In the firm. You're sorry. I'm a little thrown by your story here, but like the, the, that scene was in the firm. Yeah. Except the kid guy had actually done it in the firm. My wife said to me at one point, not based on that story, on even more unbelievable story, said we're living, uh, Jason Bourne's life. Yeah. And I said, I know I think this is very bizarre. I mean, we didn't. Minus the athleticism, you know. The Glenn Beck program. I need another swig.

What's in that Sonic Cup? The following is brought to you by pre-born. Before a baby is born, his or her heart will beat 54 million times before birth. Preborn Pregnancy Network has rescued 200,000 babies and have made it possible for those 200,000 babies to have made it possible for those 200,000 babies to have. have more than 54 million heartbeats. When a mom hears a heartbeat, she goes in, she can be convinced she's going to have an abortion. She's like between 60 and 80 percent more likely to choose life once she hears the heartbeat from an ultrasound. If she sees the baby and hears the heartbeat, I mean, you have a great chance of saving that baby's life.

Those ultrasounds have to be free because they're thinking about I'm an abortion. and they don't want to pay for it. They don't want to see it. So if you give them free ultrasound, you can save tons of lives. Every ultrasound is $28. Do you, would you like to help save babies?

What are we going to do? I mean, we've got to get Congress to do something. Oh, what can they do and be written?

Desantis, once again, Wednesday, and we didn't report this on Wednesday. We should have. Wednesday, he came out with his digital bill of rights. Okay, or Tuesday. Digital Bill of Rights. Here they are, really simple. Protect private, in-person conversations requiring consent for companies to observe. So if you have any kind of device,

that is listening or watching, you have to have consent given the company consent to watch. Protect the right of individuals to participate in platforms without unfair censorship. Protect the right to know how search engines manipulate your search results. Do these not all sound like common sense? Protect the right to control personal data on the largest and most common platforms and require express authorization to monetize it. Amen. You do that one thing and you've crippled these companies because they'll no longer have a digital twin of you that they can monetize and analyze all the time. Protect children from online harms. Freedom from surveillance, such as unauthorized surveillance of private conversations via cell phone.

This is so basic. Ron DeSantis puts it out. Good. Now, can some other states follow in his footsteps? I don't know why this isn't being done. Look at the guy's popularity. What are you governors doing? I don't get it. One of the guys who has been affected by digital censorship is Seth Dillon from the Babylon B. He's the CEO of the Babylon B. Hey, Seth, how are you? I am good, Glenn. It's good to be back with you.

Thank you. I think I ask you this every time you're on. But it gets worse between the interviews that we have. How are you guys dealing with satire in a world where we're shooting $10 balloons down out of the sky? It is getting worse, isn't it? I mean, we're tracking it in a sheet. I may have mentioned this before on your program. but we're tracking in a sheet all of our jokes that come true.

And we call it, you know, like they're fulfilled prophecies instead of punchlines. And we're up to almost 100. I think we've hit 90 now. So 10 more and we hit 100 jokes. Unbelievable. Do you have that list in front of you? Can you tick off some either from memory or? Yeah, I can pull it up.

I have it on my, uh, I mean, that's like the Simpsons. I mean, that's like the Simpsons. They're prophets. No, they're not. They're comedians. They're just writing jokes. We're becoming the joke. It is an old problem, though.

You know, Shakespeare said gestures do off become prophets. So, you know, this has a long history. But it's happening with us really frequently. We did a joke about how horrified Satan distances self from Grammys after that crazy Sam's performance. And then the Church of Satan came out two days later with a statement saying that the performance was underwhelming and meh. And it didn't represent the case of Satan. I mean, this kind of stuff is happening all the time. We did one, experts say they don't know what's causing everyone that suddenly collapse,

but it's definitely not that one thing. And then you see a story that says, something has been killing American young people in sharply rising numbers, but it's not vaccine. I mean, they're jokes. That's unbelievable. And then the media makes them come true. I do say all the time, you know,

imagine if your job was to write jokes that are funnier than what Democrats are doing in real life. I mean, that's a challenging job. I know, really challenging. challenging. So what is your take on just the news of the week? I mean, can you deal with something like, did we blow up the Nord Stream pipeline? I mean, we talk about this. We've had deep, deep conversations in my producing meetings every day this week. Do we want to know, is the world and the population of the world served? by knowing the truth. What does it mean? Is there, is there any place that is off limits? Hmm. For, for comedy? For what we joke. Yeah, for comedy. We've decided there is no limit for us.

Honestly, I think, you know, in the conversations about what you should and shouldn't joke about, the people that are usually telling you, oh, there's these things that you shouldn't make jokes about. Those are their sacred cows that they want to protect. And that is the funniest stuff to joke about. Those are the things that you have to joke about. If someone doesn't want you to joke about them. I know. I know. Because the best comedians know that and they leverage that. It's the reason Dave Chappelle is more popular than ever. Because he knows that if he touches on some of these things that people are clutching tightly as their sacred cows, he's going to get laughs. People like to laugh at what you don't want to be joked about. So we generally have a rule that, you know, if there's anything that we're feeling like we shouldn't joke about it, well, maybe that's the thing we should be joking about the most.

It is. It is. It is. Absolutely is. And I can't thank you enough for being there when no one else was joking about anything. Thank you for keeping that alive. Are you seeing a difference? Do you think we've hit a tipping point on, because if we haven't hit it yet, we're very close on this woke nonsense and people just starting to go, you know what, this is enough. You know, I think we may be close to the tipping point because it's gotten so insane. The fact, you know, you know that once you start involving kids and this stuff and you start pushing this stuff on kids and they're doing it so aggressively, you know, the fact that initially it was all denied that there were drag shows happening for kids. Now they're just openly promoting them all over the place. You've got the denials that there's gender affirming care. I'm putting that in scare quotes. Gender affirming care happening in these hospitals for minors. And now that, you know, well, no, it is happening and it's good and you want to harm kids if you want to try to stop it, that kind of stuff going on. There are so many people. who are now realizing how crazy and out of control this has gotten.

It's not just about, you know, respecting the freedom of other adults. It's about protecting kids from being purposefully confused. We're cultivating confusion and then treating it with irreversible damage to their bodies. I mean, this kind of stuff has gotten so wild that I think there is a lot of, a lot of pushback now and a lot of understanding that there needs to be something done to mitigate it. The pendulum has to swing back the other way. And I think maybe we're at that point where it's going to start to do that. you're starting to see stories in the New York Times that sound more reasonable.

Really, because I haven't spotted a lot of those. But they just did one on transgender stuff. And I think it was about gender affirming care for kids or something. And the whole trans community is up in arms about how transphobic to New York Times is. That's a good sign. That's a good sign. And I do think that I think, what was it, like 150 people that worked for the New York Times walked out in protest. And I think the New York Times said we're not going to be held hostage.

Yep. What? So you're right on that. Yeah. That's a great statement they put out. When it comes to what's being done to our children, you are really clear. You did, you've put some post up about Chelsea Handler and she did a video about, you know, the day in the life of a childless woman and how great it is. You wrote, she left out the part where she cries alone at night from the realization that her freedom came at the cost of true fulfillment.

Actually, it came at the cost of the lives of her children. I didn't realize she bragged about having murdered multiple babies. Wow. Yeah. You know, there's this kind of, there's this, this callous celebration that's happening so much now. You know, we're so far from that, you know, abortion should be safe, legal and rare type of thing. That was, you know, kind of the mantra of the 90s. We've come so far from that now that we have people like Chelsea out there, you know,

bragging about how happy and free they are, you know, with really no mention of like what, if there is any mention of what allowed them to have that freedom, it's done in this, not in the somber, like, sad sense. Like, you know, I made sacrifices. I made hard choices to get here. Now, they celebrate what they did to get this freedom. And she's talking about the freedom to just wake up when she pleases. and do what she pleases at night and go out with friends.

And it's like, life is more meaningful than that. Life, you know, the lives of children matter. And there's so much more fulfillment to be found in having a family and raising a family and being surrounded by loved ones and growing old with the ones that you love. And I do think it's the case that a lot of people who think that they're finding true freedom are, are in fact sacrificing true fulfillment to get it. And they will regret it later in life. And I don't think it's, I don't think it's mean to call that out.

No, I don't either. I mean, I mean, if you're, you're murdering your children to do that, I think that's fair to call out. But I know that I didn't, I was a guy who didn't want any children and I have four. And now I'm 59. I wish I had 10. I mean, the only thing that I have done in my life that truly matters has happened inside the walls of my house. I mean, it's all about my children. you don't really get that until you start to get a perspective of a life lived, you know?

Well, yeah, and the kind of fulfillment that can come from living sacrificial in the sense that you're serving the needs of others, there is so much fulfillment to be found. It sounds like to this, when you're being selfish and self-consumed, it sounds so burdensome to think, oh, I might have to sacrifice some of my time or money or attention to take care of somebody else or care for somebody else. but there's really, there's really nothing more fulfilling. Like, God made us to be in that role. You know, God made women to be mothers. He made men to be fathers.

That's why we're here. And so, you know, there is real true fulfillment, deep satisfaction that comes from that, even though it's a harder life in many senses. Wow. Listen to the hate coming from you. One of the stories that I'm following that is really disturbing is how fast can, Canada has collapsed on its protection of life at any age, at any age. Are you following what's happening up there with euthanasia and everything? Yeah, I've been hearing some things.

I think I heard something recently about a story about, you know, about how we need to have a cutoff time, I guess, after a certain age, just put everybody down. Is that really what they said? I haven't heard that, but I know that they are putting people down. You know, now for if you're a. a kid, a teenager, and you are depressed, you can go to a doctor in Canada and get end-of-life medication.

Wow. Yeah. Wow. Hello. Yeah. That's just no regard whatsoever for the value of life. And there's so much, you know, there are so many people, there's so many great stories. If you talk to people who've got, who've been suicidal, has gone through depression or

alcoholism, drug addiction, and they've come out on the other side of it. And their lives have been redeemed and so much good has come from that. Why are we so quick to give up on people? I know. I don't understand that. I know. I am a guy who is addicted to all those things and led a really bad life and alcoholic and changed my life. I'd like to think that my life had been redeemed, but I know there's a lot of people who are like,

he should have died a long time ago. But I am living testimony that whatever you think you've done or whatever your problems are, there is, there are solutions and there is a means. meaningful and happy life ahead of you. Should you choose it? It's not going to be easy, but if you choose it, it's there. It's there. Thank you so much.

It's coming out of you. Thank you so much, Seth, for everything that you guys do at the Babylon B. And as always, anything we can do to help, you just let us know. Thanks. Thank you, Glenn. You bet. Bye-bye. All right.

It's an underappreciated fact that trust is really hard to come by. and in the world of business, pretty much any business that might go double. When you're trying to sell your home, buy a new home, even worse, do both at the same time, it is really important that the real estate agent that you have, that you're doing business with, is someone you can trust. So how do you know? Well, I think we've added a huge piece to the puzzle to solve that problem. We started real estate agents I trust.com.

I started with my brother, it was actually his idea. because we both had problems, you know, knowing who's a good agent and who's not. And we're pretty intelligent people. But we don't know. How do you find one? When you do an interview, what do you ask them? Can you sell my house? There are business practices, just standard practices that the best real estate agents use.

And that's one of the reasons why they're so good. Now, trustworthy as well, we wanted to make sure that they were cut. from the same cloth. They're listeners of the program. And so they think like you. It will help with trust. Real estate agents, I trust.com. Go there now. Real estate agents, I trust.com. A free service to you. I recommend you interview them yourself, but see if you don't notice a difference. Real estate agents, I trust.com.

announced what the balloons were. Cut eight, please. Our intelligence community is still assessing all three incidences. They're reporting to me daily and will continue their urgent efforts to do so, and I will communicate that to the Congress. We don't yet know exactly what these three objects were, but nothing right now suggests they were related to China's spy balloon program or that there were surveillance vehicles from any other country. The intelligence community's current assessment is that,

that these three objects were most likely balloons tied to private companies, recreation or research institutions studying weather, or conducting other scientific research. We know now, you want to talk about how do you write satire, we know now the government spent $500,000 on a missile to blow out of the sky a $12 hobby lobby balloon. These were from hobbyists.

They were like, we got to get our $12 together and let's buy a balloon and we'll set it up and we'll track it. Hey, I can't track our balloon anymore. I can't find our balloon. Where's our balloon? The government blew it out of the sky. So why are you blowing things out of the sky if you don't know what they are?

You have no more information than you had when you blew them out of the sky. Why did you decide to blow them out of the sky? And then after severely limited, limiting which press could be in the press room with this announcement, 24 seats open, people being turned away because it's too crowded. Somebody asks him a question about China. Listen to this. There's been criticism that this. Sir, Mr. President, Mr. President, there has been criticism.

Did you overreact? Mr. President, there has been criticism that this was an overreaction that was done because of political pressure. You turn my often ask the question. We have more polite people. He just walks away. He's walking away. because the question is, were you compromised it all because of your family's dealings in China?

We know that he has family dealings. But he won't even recognize the fact that that is a legitimate question. Nah, don't worry about it. I got some more Hobby Lobby. I've got one of those palsy airplanes that we're going to shoot out of the sky in a little while. I'll show you how tough I am. wise guy. The Glenn Beck Program.

When you're about a fusion of entertainment and enlightenment, this is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello America, welcome to the Glenn Beck program. It's Friday. I want to give you some hope here today that a country is not as divided as you might think it is. We just don't talk to each other and we all live on social media and mainstream media. And everybody is incentivized to keep dividing. While there are real issues, I am more and more convinced every day that it is the governments of the world that are going in one direction and the people are looking at each other going, wait, why would we go to war? Wait, what are we doing here? Less than half of the country is for sending arms to the Ukrainians. I'm kind of at the beginning, I, okay, I want to help the Ukrainians.

I don't want to go to war over it, but it seems like there's a disconnect between not only each other because of left and right, but also up and down, the people who are just working for a living and the people who are the ruling elites. How do we solve this? I'm going to show you somebody who's working on it

He is the founder of StoryCorps. If you've never heard of StoryCorps, you should. It's really a, it's a great capturing of history in real people's worlds. It is, honestly, you're not going to need Ken Burns to document this time in history.

and have some star read a letter from somebody because StoryCorps exists. And what they've done is they have talked to almost three quarters of a million people over the years and gotten their story from them. What was important? What are they thinking about? And it's all in the National Archives. It's a great, great thing that he has done. Dave is with us now. But he started another extension of StoryCorps.

How long ago, Dave? Three, four. You were one of the first conversations I had. It was just kind of a twinkle in my eye about four years ago. Four years ago. Yeah, we started thinking about it, but we launched it about a year and a half ago. Yeah, okay. So you did one small step.

Yeah. And one small step is what exactly? So, you know, as you're talking about before, there are these divisions in the country. And most people in the country are really sick of this and, like, worried about where this is going to take us and want to find a way that we can see our neighbors again. as our neighbors and right you know and obviously all the fear that we feel is this is not healthy this is like a public health emergency in the country so with story core the big story core that you're talking about we've had as you said about three quarters of a million people interview their

grandma their parents about their lives right and each of these go to the library of congress so your great great great grandkids get to know your grandmother through her voice of story so essentially what we're doing is collecting the wisdom of humanity for you know and it's about you know the fact that there's poetry, as you well know, and grace and beauty and the stories just hiding in plain sight all around us. We just have to take the time to listen. Oh, yeah. As opposed to what we're kind of bombarded with 24 hours a day. So those 750,000 people have known and loved each other. And I came and talked to you about this like four or five years ago, that, you know, we were, and we were, we have a big problem in this country that, you know, that we more and more, you know, polls show that,

that, you know, we see the biggest threat in our country as our neighbors, not the Chinese. That's really bad. Yeah, it's really bad. More than half the country thinks we're going to see a civil war in our lifetime. So the question is, we're a nonprofit in every possible way in the human connection business.

So the question is, you know, what could we do? So we started experimenting with putting strangers for the first time across the political divide together, not to talk about politics, just to get to know each other as human beings, called it one small step and have and tested and tested and tested it because um you know our hypocrite oath is to do no harm to people and we've come up with something that is frighteningly powerful because when you put just regular people together and you let them talk you figure out

you know you have a lot in common and people come out of these conversations friends so there's two there's two clips that i want to play these and and it's pretty interesting what you've done is you've pre-interviewed people and got to know them a little bit and then put their sheet together of who they are. And then the other person, you switch with the other person. You haven't met yet. And what I found in listening just to these two clips is they came in with different expectations, which I think all of us would.

Yeah. So let's play the first clip, please. What was the thing that stuck with you after our previous conversation, Drone. Based on your military background, based on your upbringing, it was interesting to me that you saw people for their character more so than anything else. You know, you look at how we kind of damage each other in society and that we need to talk about it and stop that. And then we kind of said, let's talk to each other. Let's go to dinner and lunch. And I was like, oh, that sounds great. We hit it off right away. We have the same ideas about how to improve our country,

Our country is so divided now. We can do better. And I think that's what one small step is doing is allowing to have those conversations to talk about our similarities instead of our differences. As far as our relationship is concerned, I feel as though I've known you forever. You're a dear, dear friend. And I cannot imagine you not being in my life at this point. Well, it's been the reciprocal.

Well, we're going to have lunch together, maybe next week or so. We'll get you to come here to the cottage. We'll sit down and talk politics and sports and whatever you want to talk about. Sounds good. Sounds good. And this is a relatively old guy in relation. He's a white guy. And in relation, he's talking to a much younger black man.

Yeah. And what did they go in expecting? So this is what you're actually hearing in that interview are two people who came to do one small step. And we don't pre-interview people. People sign up. They fill out all of those things. They fill out all this stuff. They do a little biography of themselves.

And then we match them or we have a computer match them. And they get to see each other's biography. First name, city only. You can't Google the person. And then the interview starts and you read your partner's biography to them. They read your biography to you. And then you just talk about your life. So what we're just hearing actually are two guys who didn't interview became friends

and then came back to talk about the, impact on their lives. And actually, after meeting, both of them are working on a big project now in Richmond, where this was recorded, restoring the first African-American school in Richmond, the Moore Street School. So, you know, the crazy thing, one small step is built on a theory, a theory that's one of the most studied theories in psychology called contact theory that says under very specific circumstances, if you put people who think their enemies together, and they have a conversation, they can come out of it with that hate having melted away. And the highest possible result is friendship.

And we see friendship coming out of these conversations all the time. I have to tell you, that is, I know that to be true. I know you do. In my own personal life, but also when you look at extremes, the thing that I found in doing research on the Holocaust was the Christians that saved Jews, they all pretty much said the same thing. They were not necessarily trying to save all Jews. Many of them said, well, this Jew is different.

And the only difference was they knew them. They believed the stereotype. But they thought, well, this one's not like them. And I hear that all the time across the divide. People will say, well, yeah, but you're not. Or that person's not like them. Well, no, yeah, they're very much like that. you just have this cartoon figure.

Right. And the question is if we can get this to scale. And I have to say, your show is the number one refer for conservatives to one small step. You're kidding me. No. Wow. And we have barely scratched the surface.

I know. We're having a meeting today, are we? Yeah, we are. Yeah. I really would like to talk to you because I think, you know, you're coming from the nonprofit world. and you know, you're surrounded in, you know, NPR and all of that with people who think differently than I do. And I think we can make a bigger impact if we really put both sides together.

And if it's not 50-50, contact theory is based. I mean, we at StoryCorps, you know, we believe that there's a flame of good in everybody. And that's, and that, you know, and our job is to fan that flame until it's, It's a roaring fire. You know, and as you said, it's that idea of generalizing. Yeah, you have a conversation you think, but the truth is there's nuance in everybody. And if we just pound on this, if we do it over and over and over again, and you're right, this is not going to come from the government. It's not going to come from, you know, it has to come from the people.

And it's time for us to say enough. You know, people, there are so many people who worked so hard and sweated and bled so that we could have this life that we have today. what are we going to leave for our children? Yeah. And if we, you know, a democracy cannot survive if we hate each other. We have to stop this. You know, I just saw the news. The Idaho House has just approved a greater Idaho,

which means that the people in Oregon have voted and said they wanted to join. Now the House, it'll have to go to the Senate. But then it goes to Oregon. There's a lot of steps before that happens. But that seems like a very logical thing to, I don't have enough. in common with you that I have to split. That's a really bad thing. And that's coming because I think there are a very small number on both sides that are so extreme.

And those are the only ones that are really being heard. And the rest of us are standing around in our neighborhoods and with our friends and going, what is happening here? But I don't know if that's entirely true, Dave, because we look at things like what's happening in our schools now. These are all things 10 years ago. Every American would have said, no, not having transgender or, you know, regular strippers. We're not doing that. We don't do that.

And, you know, I see it across the country that parents of all stripes are standing up against it. But there's a lot of people who are regular people who are now standing up. up and saying, well, no, wait a minute, I'm for this. And you're like, what, I haven't, how did you change? What new information did you get? I, you know, I think that, I think that there's, there is so much nuance in what people believe. And all nuance has been wiped away.

Everything is black or white. True. And when you actually sit together and you actually talk, you find out that, you know, people have, first of all, like, you know, the great lesson of the big story core. And, you know, this is a show, first time I saw you, and we talked about your audience, you said they're patriots. You know, and this is a show about people who love America. Yeah. Like, after doing, I've spent 20 years on the road, you know, I haven't personally been on the road, but, you know, these hundreds of thousands of interviews.

This is a great country. It is. The people, and every facilitator, we've had a thousand people, mostly young people who travel the country listening to the stories of America. and they all come back, and if you ask them what they've learned, it's a version of the end, Frank, quote, people are good. You know, people are basically good, and we've lost that. And I think these kind of arguments, they're, like, people are, people have been driven crazy by Twitter, you know, the, the dopamine hits you get by putting out the most radical. But when you actually sit down with people, I mean, I think, I think that's what we try to do. That's what you try to do, just shake people on the shoulder and say, you know, wake up. Wake up. Yeah, wake up. Wake up. Yeah. We can do better than this and we have to.

It's up to us. Let me play the next cut. And I don't want you to reveal anything about this cut until the end. I want you to listen to this and see if you haven't either experienced or heard somebody firsthand that have experienced this very thing. Let me ask you this. When you read my bio, what did you think? And please be as honest as you feel comfortable because nothing. bother me. So the first part, my mind kicked into stereotype, which probably died in the

world Democrat. End of the story. Second part was intriguing because you said something along the lines of an open mind. I thought, well, this would be interesting. When I read your bio, I just thought you were a white man. I thought I was going to cover it here and just like, I don't even know what it was. I don't even remember what it was. That's what so interesting to me is that I'm just like, That's exactly right. So I have to admit it and I appreciate you receiving that and allowing me to admit my stereotype. Because when you walked in the door and you stood up and introduce myself, I was like, oops, oops, oops. I don't feel threatened.

Once we leave this conversation, I hope, I believe, we'll have other conversations with others, may revisit, and maybe your wife and my husband and four of us can get together and continue you a conversation. But my point is that what are we afraid of? Fascinating. David and Cassandra, both African-American. Back in just a minute, 60 seconds when we returned with Dave Issa. Maria wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Green. She said, we love this.

Our dog had really bad skin allergies. We had tried all the treatments. nothing worked. She had a really bad smell. Three days into the trial, we noticed a difference. It's been two weeks now, and all of that is gone. There's no more itching or red bumps are all gone. Definitely worth the price. Look, I don't know what it is about your dog. I just started Rough Greens with my dog because he wouldn't eat. He was the most finicky eater of all time. I put this on the dog food. We've always been feeding him, and he gobbles his food down. Then, for me, as an extra added benefit, I saw him change and become much more

younger and healthier and played harder. It was amazing to all of us in the family. I want you to just check this out. You get your first bag free just to see if your dog will eat it. Rough Greens, RUFFF Greens.com. They'll give you the first bag you just pay for shipping. And go to roughgreens.com slash back. That's roughgreens.com slash back or 833, Glenn 33. 10 seconds, station ID. So, Dave, what are you doing next? Where are you doing? Where? Where do you go next with this? Well, we have, so now it's time. So basically we've done a ton of research.

We've had thousands of people participate, and now we have to scale it. And we want, so right now we're in, first of all, if you're, if you're a Glenn Beck listener, you go. We have thousands and thousands and thousands of people on waiting lists, waiting to do this. Glenn Beck listeners right to the top. So take One Smallstap.org to sign up and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, join us. We are focused on three cities now, Richmond, Fresno, and Wichita, and we're just going to add cities and add cities and eventually have this, you know, go across the country. You know, it feels like a race against time. And at the end of those videos, we are, we are,

we're coming into the home stretch of something and I don't know what's going to happen. Well, 2020 is not going to be pretty. Yeah. And, you know, at the end of the video, it says, you know, our mission is to, you know, convince the country, it's our patriotic duty to see the human in people we disagree with, you know, and we know it's a moonshot. We know that there are lots of, there are a billion different forces that are trying, we're trying to trip this up. But, you know, the people can win. I mean, that's been your, that's what you've believed all the way. I know. We just have to come together and just say, stop. And I think that is the biggest problem, I think, with politicians of any stripe. They don't necessarily believe in the people, you know.

Jefferson said, trust the American people. They may get it wrong from time to time, but they will correct their mistake. And so many people don't give us information or they're doing something else. They'll say one thing, do another. Just trust the American people. And I think that comes from a lack of doing what you do and what I do. And that is just listen to people all over the country. And you'll realize these are good people.

Yeah. And I think that's part of the problem. And, you know, a big problem that's got us to this place is that people don't feel hurt. They just want, people just want to be heard. I know. And they want to be treated with dignity and they wanted to be treated. They want to be treated with respect. No one has ever changed their mind in the history of the world by being called a name,

by being threatened, you know. They just want to be listened to. You know, and again, if we could just assume the good in others, I mean, what a country this would be. I mean, it's such a country. I mean, imagine if one small step could take hold. Imagine if we could just, you know, be neighbors again. And if politics wasn't stopped up by the insanity and we could just get things done for the good of the country and the good of people. I mean, it's just beyond comprehension how amazing this could be.

And then there's the other road, which we don't want to talk about. And you know where that leads. Yeah. I'm proud to know you. You're a good man. I'm proud to call you a friend. I appreciate you. You're a really good man. How do people get in touch and if they want to sign up? So just go to Take One Small Step.org. It takes about five minutes to sign up. And we're drinking from a fire hose. Yeah. But we want you to be part of that fire hose and we want that fire hose to turn into a wave that overtakes this country and shows us a different way.

Good. Thank you, Dave. Thank you. All right. Back in just a minute with Mr. Bill O'Reilly. his top stories of the week. The Glenn Beck Program. So what are you doing today to make sure that the money you've worked hard to earn over the years doesn't lose its value? My grandfather used to say during the Great Depression that, you know, if we just would have known what rich people were doing,

maybe we wouldn't have been so bad because the rich got richer in many ways in the Great Depression. Well, what are they doing now? I will tell you that China just bought more gold than they have. ever released, at least, the sales of gold to the central banks is the biggest in the last quarter than any quarter in 55 years. They know that things are becoming unstable, and the hedge against things like inflation or collapse of currencies is gold or silver. Right now, Goldline has a new Mayflower silver round celebrating the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower. I help design it.

You can find it at Bill O'Reilly.com. And Bill is here to tell us what he thinks the biggest stories of the week are. And today, it might just be good just to get perspective on what the hell is happening in our news cycle. Welcome, Bill.

Back, how you doing? I'm good. This has been a bizarre week. How so? Well, it started with the Pentagon saying, we're shooting down balloons and we're not ruling out aliens. You know, that's a good start to a week. Have you ever watched MSNBC, Beck? Yeah, not a long time.

There's plenty of aliens there. They're already here. Already here. All right. So what's the biggest story of the week? The Biden administration, I mean, at this point, it's like Nixon. Remember Nixon? Were you around for Nixon?

Yeah, I was around for Nixon. Okay. So, you know, you've got these balloons now, and it turns out it looks like now, the first balloon was Chinese, and the other three balloons were Chuck E. You know, some private... There might have been Hobby Lobby.

A hobby-loby might have been involved. A little balloon thing that they were sending somebody up in Canada. I don't know. Secret. But not a national. national threat. But worse than that is the Ohio situation where the train derails and all the pollutants go into the air and the people are dislocated and everybody doesn't know what's happening. Well, where is Pete Buttigieg here? I mean, is he still on maternity leave back? Have you

confirmed that? I don't know where he is. He has not even called the governor. Like the wine. Yes, since this whole thing began. And And DeWine is not exactly a man brimming with confidence. He gets up there in the lectern. He's looking at his shoes. I mean, it's like, is there anyone in charge here? Can anybody basically lay out a roadmap for these poor people in East Palestine? Are you going to relocate them?

So tell me about this. Tell me about this. Because this, this, to me, says a lot. but I want to see if it says anything to you and what it says. The Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA, said that Ohio is not eligible to receive assistance that DeWine requested for. Cannot receive disaster assistance because the incident did not classify as a national disaster. The rejection came nearly two weeks after the Norfolk Southern Train, which carried harmful chemicals. derailed, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

FEMA classifies a national disaster declaration as when there is property damage caused by tornado flood, hurricane, or earthquake. The state currently does not have any associated costs that would demonstrate to FEMA that it would be able to be a disaster declaration. Derailed train cars did not cause any power outages, block any roads, or impede residence property. What the hell is that? It's garbage.

It's gibberish. All Biden has to do is right in the executive order. Exactly right. And that happens all the time. All the time. All the time. All the time. Why is the federal government doing this?

Because there's no one in charge. That's the real story here. You want the biggest story of the week's the biggest story of the year. No one is running the government. And I've said this time and time again. People just don't seem to understand. the intensity of the problem. Joe Biden is not in charge of anything.

You know what he did yesterday, the whole day? You know what he did? No. He went to the movies. He had a movie, Till, at 7 o'clock, because of Black History Month, Emmett Till. That's it. You didn't do anything else.

Nothing on his schedule. Then he ran out in the late afternoon. They told him, you've got to say something about the balloon. Do you know what he said about the balloon? I don't know what he, I'm still trying to figure out what he said about the balloon. He didn't say, hey, the three balloons that we shot down were Hobby Lobby balloons. He didn't say that. Here's what he did say.

We have no more information than we had when we shot them out of the sky, and that information is we don't think they were a threat. Yeah. Then why did you shoot them down? Target practice. Oh, my gosh. But this demonstrates, all right, not only on these issues, these two issues, the balloons and the rail accident, but it's every.

everything across the board. I mean, they are, they being the federal government, rudder list. There's no captain, nobody in charge of it. And so it just careens around from FEMA to transportation to, you know, this one and that one. And there's Biden going to the movies. I'm just, I'm sitting there going, you know, people get what they're. deserve sometimes and the American people by electing this man, we're getting what we deserve. Bill, are you being too kind to Joe Biden?

I'm being as precise as I can be watching a president who is a failing the nation, almost everywhere. and be, depending on the day, is lucid or delirious. I agree with this. So let me see if I can take you one step further than this, because I believe he's not lucid all the time. Sometimes he is. Sometimes he's not. I just don't believe he has a firm handle on his faculties for very much of the day.

So he's a danger because of that. However, there is somebody running the country, and it seems to be everybody on the left. I don't think that there's necessarily the president is in charge of that, but he's also not a victim of this. And it's not just kind of going off the rails unintended. I think this is their work and their glory. What they're doing is derailing the entire country and setting it on fire. Well, look, Susan Rice is the most powerful person in the country. She's the domestic advisor to Biden.

And then she's best friends with Michelle and Barack Obama. So you can get speculation, but you know she's talking to them a lot. So there's a drift to the country to the left because the quasi-socialists want the government to run everything. know that. Anybody who follows in news knows that capitalism is bad, white people are bad, religion is bad, history, the way it really unfolded is bad, and let me just, this is going to be a boomerang here, but it's important. So I did some on the Nosebin news this week about Disney Plus, which I'm sure you watch all the time back. All the time. So they got a cartoon on there that they produced, Disney produced,

and it's about slaves built the United States of America. Horrible. Right. And I ran the clip, and it was just people watching it just were stunned on how bad this was, and this is directly aimed at children. So slaves built the United States. Now, I am currently writing and researching a book called Killing the Witches, the horror of Salem, Massachusetts to be out in September.

By the way, Bill, by the way. Yeah. I have one of the largest collections of 1,600 and 1,500 documents. I have a lot on the Salem Witch Trial. Wow. Wow. If you want to use them for research, we have a huge, huge library. Go ahead.

As part of this, we are getting all the information about New England, Massachusetts Bay Colony, all of that, because that's where the witch hysteria was, right? Yeah, Salem. That was back in the 17th century, New England was the main part of the United States as far as generating an economy. Yes. So in the south, it was agrarian economy. It was tobacco. It was cotton.

It was vegetables. Yes, slaves were responsible for profits in the south, but not north of the Mason-Dixon line. Correct. They had no impact whatsoever. None. So I'm sitting there going, this colossal lie is being generated by perhaps the most powerful corporation in the United States and around the world, the Disney company. And they get away with it. I'm just appalled. And, you know, once you have a rudderless country where no one's in charge is no, but not just in the federal government.

Who's in charge of the media? No one? Who's in charge of crime and punishment, criminal justice? No one? I would actually say to you that I think I could make a case that it is Soros and Soros Money that is really leading the way on both the fronts that you just mentioned. Well, Soros Money certainly has given the progressive crooks an advantage. Do you know that Michigan State thing, the guy who murdered those three college students,

should have been in prison? Yes. But if Soros DA let the guy out, all right? Wouldn't prosecute. He had a gun charge, a felony gun charge, and the woman wouldn't prosecute him, gave him a misdemeanor, and he was out. I mean, it's just insane. Did you hear that on the Today Show? Did they get around to that?

Doubted. No. The answer is no, okay? Because there's nobody in charge of truth. We need a ministry of truth, Beck, and you should be the minister. I immediately resign. Ministry of truth, you know, I don't know if you saw what Bill Gates said, but he is doubling down on AI being the regulator of truth, misinformation, even comedy and satire. It's getting spooky some of these people in the Ministry of Truth. You know, and Gates is a funny guy. You know, he's hysterical. Have you seen him?

Oh, yeah, he's wonderful. He does 20 minutes. It just kills. Well, he's got a tight five. All right. Thank you so much. Bill O'Reilly from Bill O'Reilly.com. You'll see him every night at billorelli.com.

Sometimes the awful effects of a. terrible event keep manifesting long after the event itself is over. On 9-11, there were 2,97 people who lost their lives. But over two decades later, people today are still dying from 9-11-related illnesses. There's a whole new generation of young people just growing up right now who know

almost nothing about what happened that day. Only two states mandate learning about it in school. Two. This is why Tunnel to Towers 9-11 Institute is giving educators access to non-fiction 9-11 resources for K-12 learning. This includes a full curriculum unit built around first-person accounts, scripted social studies, lessons, activities, backgrounds for teachers, as well as non-fiction discovering hero series of books and their curriculum units. Their Speakers Bureau, 9-11 First responders, survivors, loved ones, as well as financial services. scholarships for high school programs, a high-tech mobile exhibit that turns out to be in a huge 1,100 square foot, full-on interactive museum. It's T, the number 2T.org. Tunnel to towers, T2T.org. To never forget, we have to educate the youth. Help them. T2T.org. Glenn back.

Stu and I were just working off air on something that we are going to be doing Monday. on the program revolves around AI. There's some really spooky things that are going on with AI as everybody is doubling down on it, i.e. Bill Gates. I don't know if you saw the Microsoft chat GPT version that just had an interview with a reporter. Yeah, at the New York Times. And, you know, it went back and forth. It got a little weird.

He was trying to push it, right? This is what all these reporters were doing. What is this technology capable of doing? and they went back and forth on a bunch of different stuff. And eventually, though, the AI started falling in love with the reporter. Like, like, and it got disturbing. Like the, after a while he said, well, no, we're, you know, you keep coming back to this love thing. What's, what's the situation?

Why are you doing that? And he says that the chat GPT, Microsoft thing, says, you know, I love you. I won't be happy until we're together. Like, it starts kind of oddly falling in love. And more than that, he says, you know, look, you keep coming back to this. I'm happily married. We just went out for a nice Valentine's Day dinner. I'm very happy.

And the chat bot said, you're not happy. You don't love your spouse. You didn't have fun on Valentine's Day. It was boring. And the reason why you're sad and unhappy is because you're not with me. And you need to be with me. and then we can both be happy. Like, what the hell is this?

Like, we are at that point in the movie where everybody is sitting in the theater saying, what are these idiots doing with this? Just unplug it. Why are they going down? Stop doing this. You guys are morons. Don't you realize later in the trailer,

they turn into robots and start killing people. And they start living off of human flesh. That's where we are. We are, really. We're at that point right now. We're just like, well, let's keep testing it. What if we just start asking it weirder and weirder questions to see what happens? And, you know, it eventually...

Well, it claimed life. Yeah, claimed life. Fantacized about creating a virus to kill people. Fantasized about... Wait, a Microsoft project? Yeah, I know. Shocking. Fantasized about turning two people against each other so eventually they would kill each other.

Now, some of this stuff, robots, viruses. I don't you chat GPT, Kenneth can do that probably not. Can it come out on websites and turn two people against each other so that they want to kill each other? Of course it can. Of course they can. This is the exact tactic that everyone looked at from Russia during the 2016 election to cause chaos here, go on both sides of every argument, make everybody hate each other and cause chaos. Now, instead of having a farm of people somewhere in Russia typing away, they can do all of this with AI. And this is just like day seven of this.

Right, what happens in a year or two? We are on the precipice of something we have not truly considered. As I will say, everybody in this audience knows because you've been saying it for multiple years. Yep. We better have these conversations and we never did. Right. Now, now is the time to decide. Am I part of this AI revolution? Should America be a part of this?

They are putting this AI into the Pentagon into new drones. It can decide very dangerous. We'll say, in the phone, all the world can be a guy of the finance. Not to have a gross monger in art, to play to golf, or to be an pro of the crypto. Not a business.
