This is the Glimbeck program.
There is no way
we're going to get to,
I don't think we're going to get past
Michelle Obama's speech today.
I don't think we're going to get past that.
It was too wonderful for you.
Oh, it was too great, too great.
All right, let me tell you about rough greens.
If you love your dog as much as we love ours,
you consider your dog a part of the family,
and you want them to have a long and happy life.
And I've lost too many dogs.
It is so painful every time you lose an animal
because they're not our pets.
They're not our pets.
They're our friends and family.
So you want to have the best health and the best life.
put a supplement in their food that they love will help them eat and help them stay active and young.
It's a supplement called rough greens and it's jam packed with vitamins and minerals and antioxidants and omega oils and probiotics.
All of the things that will promote health for your dog.
All of these things are not in, especially if you're feeding your dog dry kibble.
It's not in dry kibble.
You need to put this.
It comes in a sealed bag because it's alive and it's all.
all the things your dog needs, give your dog rough greens, and see the difference in your dog.
And especially if you have a dog that doesn't like to eat their food, they will gobble the food.
I mean, it's crazy how much they love this stuff.
Roughgreens.com slash Beck.
We're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
You know, you've got to love Michelle Obama speaking from her $11 million home right on the Atlantic,
which, of course, I mean, that island is going to be underwater soon.
Could be in five years, we don't know.
I don't think we're going to get past the Michelle Obama speech today as we cover what happened last night with the Democrats.
Between that and opening with the national anthem.
Oh, really?
Okay, we begin there and this hour, Stephen Crowder.
We begin in 60 seconds.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
So let me ask you, how's your financial health doing right now?
It's a critical thing to pay attention to, especially with the future being so uncertain.
You need to be asking yourself, what are some of the things I can do to save money?
How can I cut some of the monthly cost that's already draining my bank account?
Well, if you're a homeowner, one of the best things you can do is explore a refi of your mortgage.
Refinancing the mortgage interest rates hovering in the 4% range, not that long ago.
Now we're talking about in the 3% range, and there's talk about it going down into the twos.
You can save hundreds of dollars, especially if you roll in your high interest credit card debt.
My gosh, you could save thousands of dollars.

Oh my gosh.
When they started with the, do we have the national anthem from the DNC last night?
Oh my, when this hit, I thought I was going to lose my mind.
Oh, look.
And nobody's kneeling.
Nobody's, that's fantastic.
Okay, stop.
I can't take it.
So you knew you were in for a very long night of agony.
A very long night of programming.
Honestly, Sesame Street has a higher standard.
Sesame Street for education.
Sesame Street has a higher standard.
This thing was jam-packed with information for absolute morons and idiots.
You start with the national anthem.
An educated person says,
how can you start with a national anthem?
Because everybody's taking a knee.
You guys aren't defending the national anthem.
Anthem. You guys are saying that the National Anthem is racist. So how are you doing that without any
self-aware? They're totally self-aware. They are programming to morons. They don't think you're
aware of it. They don't think you know anything that's going on. And the people that will buy this
don't. So you have to watch it in a different way. Like Michelle Obama's speech, I'm going to try to get
through. I just have, I think, 10 pieces of her audio to get through. I don't think I can do it.
When you listen to Michelle Obama, first of all, the worst thing anyone can do on the right is tear Michelle
Obama apart as a person or anything else because she is so liked. That's different than likable.
You don't have to like her. You don't even have to understand how other people like her.
but you need to understand how liked she is.
We don't feel this way because I'm sure she's a wonderful person if you agreed with her.
So I don't feel this way because I know so much about her.
I know that she doesn't love America.
She said the first time she was ever proud of her nation was when Barack Obama was elected.
The first time she was proud of her nation.
We have heard too many off-camera comments from her.
I know who she hung out with.
I know her Marxist friends.
I know who she went to church with for 20-some years.
There's no way you can have the kind of love and appreciation for this country that maybe you have.
Now, maybe she appreciates it in a whole different way, like it's a great place to start all over again.
Maybe.
But we see her differently because.
we've been educated.
We've paid attention.
So let's listen to her speech.
Here's cut one.
Good evening, everyone.
It's a hard time, and everyone's feeling it in different ways.
I don't like it so far.
And I know a lot of folks are reluctant to tune into a political convention right now or to politics in general.
Stop.
Believe me, I get it.
Why do you hate it so far?
I just don't get it.
I know everyone thinks she's amazing and she's this incredible person and she's the most beautiful woman that's ever walked the face of the earth.
She's an average person.
She's an average.
Like, there's nothing wrong with being average looking.
But that's just what she is.
She's an average looking person who does.
So who again, like I watch her speeches and I feel like I'm in another universe.
I watch every blue check on Twitter say how it was the most amazing thing.
they've ever seen. And I, it's, I, I look at it and I'm like, that was, that looked like the wife
of a politician trying really hard to read a speech who was written by a pretty good speech writer,
right? And she's overacting it and overdoing it. And she's not really great at this,
but like, hey, let's, nice work. Separating her from who she is and what we know about her and,
and her politics.
Like, I just don't see her as this amazing transformative person.
She has a way.
Okay, she has a way.
Now, remember, talking two different things,
the way you see it and the way the half of the country sees her.
They have not been exposed,
nor have they listened to all of the things that make you go,
she is not telling the truth here.
She's not telling the truth.
That's part of it.
So it's part of it.
But she hasn't said anything yet.
All she said was,
You probably don't want to tune into a convention.
I was like, oh, she also says all of the things.
Now, this is a speechwriter, saying all of the things that everybody feels.
And she has a way.
She is good at one thing.
She can look into the camera and connect with an individual.
Maybe not you, but she can connect.
And that's a very rare skill.
And I do think she has that.
She seems overacty to me.
but if you're not predisposed to think she's a fraud,
you may not feel that from her.
All right, continue.
I get that.
But I am here tonight because I love this country with all my heart.
And it pains me to see so many people hurting.
I've met so many of you.
I've heard your stories.
And through you,
I have seen.
I have seen this country's promise.
And thanks to so many who came before me,
thanks to their toil and sweat and blood,
I've been able to live that promise myself.
That's the story of America.
Wow.
All those folks who sacrificed and overcame so much in their own times
because they wanted something more,
something better for their kids.
There's a lot of beauty
in that story.
There's a lot of pain in it too.
A lot of struggle and injustice and work left to do.
Okay.
And I have to tell you.
What?
What?
See, this is the problem.
They say things they don't mean.
Because if you meant that, we wouldn't have a problem.
Yes, there's a lot of pain.
And let's work through the.
that pain. But that's not what's being said. What's being said, there is no beauty in the people
that struggled in their own time, as she said, in their own time to make life better for their
children. They did in their own time. Their times were different. So they didn't meet today's
standards, but they moved to the flag forward. And now it's our job to move the flag forward even
more. But that's not what the left is saying. That's not what the Democratic Party stands for anymore.
They call for the destruction of America, a rewriting of our history, a washing us of everyone in their
time that was trying to do the right thing for their children. That's a real problem. Now,
let's go to SOT II. Listen to this. Tell me who she's describing.
I am one of a handful of people living today who have seen firsthand the immense weight and awesome power of the presidency.
And let me once again tell you this.
The job is hard.
It requires clear-headed judgment.
Yes.
A mastery of complex and competing issues.
Yes.
A devotion to facts and history.
History.
A moral compass.
and an ability to listen.
And an abiding belief that each of the 330 million lives in this country has meaning and worth.
Okay.
All right.
Okay.
Stop.
Now, remember, she's giving the speech for Joe Biden.
So let me just go through this.
She's seen it firsthand, immense weight and awesome power of the presidency.
She's seen it.
Can we say real quick?
This country's not supposed to have an awesomely power.
no full president that's not how it's supposed to work yes so but she's seen that yeah she has seen that
let me once again tell you this the job is hard agree sure yes uh it requires clear headed judgment
does joe biden have clear headed judgment how could anyone say that with a straight face can't how
can't a mastery of complex and competing issues he can't even get to multiple syllable words at this
Right. He might have five years ago, ten years ago, certainly did when he was with Barack Obama at the beginning, certainly did. Now? No. A devotion of facts and history. No one on the left has that.
Biden didn't even have that back when he was going with Obama. I remember the, what was it, FDR and the television. Right. I mean, he just didn't have it. And if I may, a devotion of facts and history, let me go back to Michelle Obama.
in 2008.
And Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices.
We're going to have to change our conversation.
We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.
We're going to have to move into a different place.
So we're going to have to change our history.
So a devotion of facts in history, does she really mean that?
And does Joe Biden have that?
A moral compass, a guy whose son has built with his dad,
millions of dollars through, through gun running drug lord, you know,
mafioso style people in Ukraine and gotten deeply in bed with a communist Chinese party and made millions of dollars.
Is that a moral compass that you think he has?
I'm not saying, let's not, we don't have to compare.
We could say Donald Trump, just assume, haven't seen it, but just assume,
oh, his kids are dirty as hell too.
well, A, haven't seen that evidence.
But B, we're talking about Michelle Obama saying, we need a moral compass.
Does Joe Biden have that moral compass?
Oh, and an ability to listen.
The only reason why he's listening is because he can't speak anymore.
I mean, who is she describing here?
I mean, it's almost as if she's just, she's making the case that they should not nominate Joe Biden.
Right.
It's almost like she's saying like, you know what,
unless you give the job to me or Kamala or somebody else.
You know, it's almost like she says, look, you know me.
And I've seen it.
Jobs hard.
We're clearheaded judgment, mastery of complex and competing issues,
devotion of facts and history,
a moral compass and an ability to listen.
That's why we picked Kamala to be on the ticket.
Because she's got that.
Joe has lost it a long time ago.
But he's not really going to be president.
You can with a straight face.
make that statement about Joe Biden.
All right.
We're going to pick it up.
I've got two.
I'm only up to two.
We've got 12.
And Stephen Crowder is coming up in just a second.
So stand by for that.
It's always entertaining to have Stephen on.
All right.
Simply Safe.
Welcome to the tech age.
Not only is this just about everything you want available, but it's customizable as well.
Take Simply Safe's home security system, for example.
From high definition cameras to sensors so small.
they're practically invisible yet so sensitive they can tell the difference between a family pet
and an intruder to the video verification specialists that are on hand at all hours to alert
police quickly in a bad situation simply safe is the way to go because this is a time of
incredible technology also incredible unrest in the country did you see the the people in
Seattle that were this family that was outside barbecuing, this white family, where this mob just
stopped in front of their house and started taunting them and telling these white people to get out
and they should give them their house. This is a time that can be really, really dangerous.
You need to have home security. Simply safe is the way to go. Makes it easy, affordable. Home
security, the best on the market, state of the art equipment, around the clock monitoring.
SimpliSafe is the first name in the business now.
And you pay 50 cents a day, 50, 50, 50, 0 cents a day for monitoring.
It's really a no-brainer.

Sought 4, please.
Here is Michelle Obama from L,
night. And here at home as George Floyd, Brianna Taylor, and a never-ending list of innocent people
of color continue to be murdered, stating the simple fact that a black life matters is still
met with derision from the nation's highest office. Office. No, it's not, Michelle. It's really not.
first of all, you named two people and then said,
and a never-ending list of innocent people of color that continue to be murdered.
I don't know if you've seen the murder list of black people.
They do, but they seem to be murdered by other black people, not the police.
Have you noticed that?
It's very much of an end to the list.
There is.
Nine in one year is what the end of that list was.
For the police.
For the police.
For the police.
Yeah, this idea that you can just string together in this case.
She didn't even go as far as they normally do with five or six names.
Yeah.
Listing a few names is not an argument.
No.
Especially when some of them, they usually go to five or six names and they start naming people who are like attacking the police at the time of the shooting.
Right.
And then stating the simple fact that Black Lives Matter is still met with derision from the nation's highest office.
Black Lives Matter.
Registered trademark.
Black Lives Matter, Inc.
It is a company.
It's not a movement.
It's a literal company.
We can say that Black Lives Matter.
Absolutely they do.
Absolutely they do.
But when you say Black Lives Matter,
that's a registered trademark for a company.
It's like saying, you know, just do it.
Just do it.
Oh my gosh.
When it's met with derision from Adidas.
Of course.
It's a slogan for another company.
I disagree with the company, Black Lives Matter, not the idea.
Then she goes on and she says that, you know,
we're seeing people shouting in grocery stores,
unwilling to wear a mask to keep us all safe.
They see people calling the police on folks mining their own business just because of the color of their skin.
Excuse me, we are seeing people beat other people because they're not wearing a mask.
We saw a black neighbor go out and shoot a kid.
Point blank.
Why?
Because he was white.
What are you talking about?
Then Sot 5.
They see people shouting in grocery stores, unwilling to wear a mask to keep us all safe.
They see people calling the police on folks' mind in their own business just because of the color of their skin.
They see an entitlement that says only certain people belong here.
I do see that.
That greed is good and winning is everything.
Because as long as you come out on top, it doesn't matter what happens to everyone else.
Do you know anybody who says that?
Who believes that?
And they see what happens when that lack of empathy is genned up into outright disdain.
Unbelievable.
They see our leaders labeling fellow citizens, enemies of the state,
while emboldening, torch-bearing white supremacists.
Oh, my gosh.
They watch in horror as children are torn from their families and thrown into cages and pepper spray and rubber-bole.
Stop!
Oh, come on.
Stop.
Stop. Stop. Your husband built those cages.
Your husband built those cages for them to claim at this time.
I didn't. What? I didn't know that. No, I just saw the pictures.
Is ridiculous. Is absolutely ridiculous.
Shows an immense amount of confidence that no one will look into what they've done.
incredible because no one will because no one will there isn't anyone sitting in the in the seat in the national press that is going to say wait a minute wait a minute guys seeing people in cages wait a minute the you know people are unwilling to wear a mask to keep us all safe yeah we are seeing that but we're also seeing people beaten we're for that we're seeing white people
shot and frightened off the streets because black people and not all black people, just this
small minority of socialist and Marxists that want a revolution, are saying to white people,
you have no place here.
They're literally saying that in the streets.
So isn't there some sort of balance maybe that?
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Nope.
Stephen Crowder is coming up next.
All right. When I started real estate agents, I trust with my brother Robert a number of years ago.
I remember I was thinking, helping people like you to avoid having the same kind of bad real estate experiences.
But Tonya and I have gone through over and over and again.
And you know it. You know it.
You get a real estate agent, somebody who doesn't know exactly what you need.
They don't know how to get the house ready to put on the market.
They blow up balloons and they say we're going to have a couple.
Please, we need somebody who understands the nuances of.
price negotiation on the buying end.
We need somebody that when we need to fix something, they have that number programmed into
their phone.
We need to have somebody who understands the urgency of the market right now.
And it's a good thing we started it because now things are getting bad in parts of the
country and things, if you live in the right parts of the country, things are getting
really, really good.
So get the right real estate agent, both ends, selling or buying.

Get the Glenn Beck program.
Stu does America and Stephen Crowder.
He's coming up next.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
joined now by Stephen Crowder.
Blaze TV host, Louder with Crowder.
Did you watch the convention last night?
Stephen?
No.
We'll be live streaming Thursday because that's, you know, when Biden and Kamala Harris will be there.
But we plan on live streaming every night.
And thank God we didn't because nothing happened other than not.
Oh, my gosh, it was bad.
It was bad.
How they opened with the Star-Spangled Banner is beyond me.
But Stephen, first of all, congratulations on getting remonitized on YouTube.
Let's just say next time we go out for dinner,
picking up the check but I can pick up a portion of the hors d'oeuvres no no oysters let's
just you know like like some mozzarella sticks yeah I'll make sure it's nice and I actually
wouldn't do that to you because I don't think it's going to last long how first of all you
you have a great attorney how did this happen and how long do you think it's going to
last well to answer the second part your guess is as good as mine probably a week but
this has been going on for 14 months for 14 months it's been going
going on with the Vox Apocalypse. People need to understand that YouTube changed their rules
because we didn't violate any guidelines. Those were the words uttered by the YouTube CEO,
Susan Woodjitsky herself. So then they changed it and created new guidelines for advertising
and then new community guidelines where you can't really insult people because we, listen,
we understand that it's YouTube's playground and we play by the rules. And then they've changed
the rules. And then there were some things behind the scenes where they tried to do a little more
massaging and tweaking of the rules with which I was no longer comfortable.
And now here we are.
I sign in and it's a big remonitized symbol.
But the weird thing is, you know, YouTube let us know that we would be remonitized last Thursday.
And everyone knows us at the blaze because we said, hey, this is going to happen.
Don't let anyone know.
We're going to announce it Thursday.
YouTube requested that.
It's just them and us.
We're the only ones who know.
And lo and behold, two days before that, it gets leaked to the verge owned by Vox and the little buddies at MASHR.
So I have no idea how that got out.
Wow.
But, you know, it's like.
It wasn't anybody on your staff or our staff that leaked that Vox.
Gee, I wonder how that happened.
I thought you have Ezra Klein on Speed Diet.
That's what I was.
Let me, you did an amazing interview with David Dorn, his wife.
David Dorn is the former police captain in St. Louis that was guarding and helping
out at a pawn shop and somebody came in to steal a t-shirt and killed him over that.
Really a hair-raising and gut-wrenching scene wasn't really, didn't make a difference really
to the mainstream media, but anybody who really watched it was touched by this.
First of all, how did you get the interview with his wife?
Well, you know, I can't, that's credit to my dad.
he's the booker for our show and that really happened because everyone else was too afraid to book
the show so thanks dad so he's gotten a lot of these interviews you know stephen williford after the
sutherland spring shooter yeah um i can't take credit for it really we've been blessed with that and
uh to brief people in the story yeah we do have this shirt it's the david dorn shirt you can go to
lotter's shop dot com 100% of the profits are going to go directly to his family and his wife
excellent excellent um it was over 30 years that he was with the st louis police department but i think
the story's more important because he was off duty and he came in to
to help a friend to answer a call in distress, a pawn shop that was being looted.
And he was shot.
He was a black man, black police officer who served a black community for a very long time.
Served it well.
You can't really find any dirt on this guy, which in 2020 is, it's almost impossible.
And believe me, we really tried to search to see if there were any skeletons in this closet.
No, there was nothing there that we found thus far.
You know, no one's perfect.
And he was shot over a vizio by another black gentleman in that community.
And this is someone, the reason I think it's an important story is not just because,
it's a black police officer and these people have been left out in the cold despite the fact
that there are more minorities in the police force than in the general population at large and that's
because they see it as a way to serve their community we also see over 80% of black americans who want at
least as much police presence if not more so black lives matter doesn't speak for them they just have a
megaphone with the media but this is a man who not only is an example for the black community
but anyone any young men i mean if we want to talk about heroes a guy who served his community for 30 plus
years was answering a call off duty and was shot dead while protecting his neighborhood. That is a
hero. And you know why? Because no one would have ever known if he never responded to that call. That wasn't a
police call. There was no record of it. No one would have cared. No one would have judged him for staying
home in his comfortable bed sheets with a soft pillow. And instead he was going out doing the right
thing. When no one was watching, no one cared. And unfortunately, no one cared after he died in the media.
And so we've really tried to take it upon ourselves to make sure that his story gets told.
And, you know, Glenn, I will say this.
I've watched you quite a bit in the past and present.
You've had a lot of big interviews.
And I always struggle with these because I never want to be, you know, I never want to exploit somebody.
Yes.
But I also want to ask the questions that I think everyone would like to have answered.
I don't want to be Barbara Walters, you know, asking them what kind of tree would they would be or Oprah getting them to cry.
Yeah.
So it's always tough for me.
And I hope I struck that balance because I really do.
admire both the late officer Dorn and his wife, who by the way, is also a police officer.
They were married police officers and they started programs to help youth in their community and
even help them enroll in the police force. So when people talk about reforming the police,
when people talk about making it better, when people talk about tangible solutions, right,
solutions that have observable metrics. These people dedicated their life to it were shot dead
for it and no one tells their story. So that's a shame. Let me play a couple of
clips. Here, here she is. This is Sergeant Andorne talking about why her husband's death wasn't
covered in the media. Listen. Why do you think it is that this story with your husband has received
comparatively so little media coverage? And we've done everything that we can, but we're obviously
only one show. But the ABC, NBC, CBS, almost nothing. The easiest answer is it doesn't fit their
narrative. It doesn't fit the narrative of, you know, a policeman killing a black man. It doesn't,
you know, it's a black on black crime. We have those every day in St. Louis, and I hate to say that.
It's very sad. That's one component that we need to fix with this peace marks, and then we need to
address. You know, all lives are precious. Right. Every life out there is precious. And he just didn't
fit the narrative.
Yeah.
Then cut two, please.
He went out fighting,
you know, the good fight,
helping people.
I believe everything happens for a reason.
And, you know,
he's going to speak through me, and I'm hoping the reason
is to help heal the city, to realize,
hey, he didn't have to die.
You know, the young man didn't have to pull that trigger.
You know, there's all triggers.
There was no reason to pull the trigger.
and take David's life.
Yeah.
You know, David went out honorably, you know, fighting.
So I can't, I can't ask for anything more.
I wouldn't have wanted it to happen that way.
I'd like to grow old with him.
Right.
But if he had to die this, oh, you know, like this, then yes.
You know, he went out of here.
And I'm just hoping I can bring meaning to it.
she was very composed up until that when she started talking about growing old with him
you can tell how much she she loved him
do you think that there is a problem in racism in the media itself
the fact that she is white and he is black do you think that played a role in this not
being covered Stephen you know I don't even know if they got that
far along the trail.
Wow.
And just like with the hydroxychloroquine lady who clearly, well, who I believe probably knocked
off her husband.
They didn't do any research and find out that she was an anti-Trump activist and donor
to the DNC.
I think this was a story that didn't interest them from the get-go, just like last night or
yesterday when a man was beaten within an inch of his life, dragged out of his truck by Antifa
and Black Lives Matter activists.
I just don't think that it suits their narrative.
And I know that that's a phrase that's used a lot.
It doesn't suit their narrative.
But I don't think it's ever been on more crystal clear display for everyone to see because if we're talking about black lives that matter and all black lives do matter and all lives matter, but let's say all black lives matter so that, you know, we're not accused of burning crosses and having a white hood if you say all lives matter. But all black lives certainly matter.
Wouldn't it stand to reason to look at the number one cause of death? Number one cause of death for all black males under age 44 is homicide. It's not even close. Death from police officers doesn't even crack the top of the list. Do you know that a black police officer?
officer, any police officer is actually 18 times more likely to be shot by a black man, a young
black man than he is to shoot them. So if we're talking about, hey, all black lives matter and we
want to help the black community, which is what David Dorn and his wife dedicated their entire
lives to serve. It wasn't a hashtag they were doing this when no one was watching before.
Hashtags were a thing. We should be talking about how to curb homicide with young black males
in the community. And I want to be clear, I'm not like a Nick Cannon saying that,
Homicide is because of melanin the skin.
You know, he thinks that white folks don't have souls because it's melanin.
No, I think we have a spiritual and a culturally broken problem in the United States.
I think it's across all colors, but I think particularly in the black community, and David Dorn obviously knew this because he served the youth, they are raised in fatherless households.
And not only that, but in communities where there aren't other dads.
And so you have record numbers of black lives being taken by other young black males.
So, Stephen, I've got 90 seconds left.
I've seen so many of your changed my minds recently.
And I wanted to get a sense from you.
When it comes to Black Lives Matter, when it comes to Marxism and everything else, are you seeing a turn at all, even a small turn?
Or is everyone just locked into that that, you know, Black Lives Matter, ink, is good?
Yeah. Here's the thing. People hear the term Black Lives Matter think it's good, right? If you pull people, just like don't kick puppies. Okay, that's good. When you actually read the demands and you read the history and the charter from Black Lives Matter and their founders, nearly everyone unilaterally disagrees with them, most of all Black Americans. So Black Lives Matter, the idea, we're all on board with Black Lives Matter the organization, just like Antifa is a domestic terror organization, $600 million in property damage, 14,000 arrests, 900 officer casualties, over 20,
20 people dead. If you don't call that a riot, I don't know what is.

only at blazedt.com slash glen.
So we're just talking about to the convention last night.
A big takeaway for you last night, Stu?
The most offensive thing of the evening
was the fact that they would let Andrew Cuomo get on stage
and act as if he's something others.
than directly from the bowels of hell.
So that part of, I thought that was a mistake.
I mean, look, I think Michelle Obama is going to get the high billing here.
Again, I don't understand why people love Lord of the Rings so much.
Okay?
I don't understand that.
Everyone in this audience loves Lord of the Rings, I'm sure.
To me, it's Boroughfest.
I can't get through it.
So maybe I'm just different.
And this is why I don't see the Michelle Obama thing that everyone else seems to see.
she this amazing
woman who is
who is transformative in her language
and her ability as an orator
I don't get it I don't see it
but I know everyone else does so I guess
that's the big moment but I think you're
don't dismiss
the power of the press
and the power of persuasion
of the press
nobody wants to say anything
like she's an average woman
I mean it's great and everything
she may have accomplished a lot in her life or whatever
but like, you know, they make her out to be the most beautiful woman in the world.
Look, she's not.
She's an average looking woman.
And that's totally fine.
And I feel like the same thing is happening here that is happening.
Like when they talk about like Caitlin Jenner, Caitlin Jenner is the most beautiful woman in the world.
Well, look, she's not.
She looks like the guy who we just saw as Bruce Jenner two weeks ago.
Now it looks like he, I guess he's a woman.
And okay, that's great for his journey.
But like, I'm not going to tell you that I think she's a beautiful woman.
Well, I don't think that Michelle Obama looks like a guy in a dress.
I mean, to say to compare the two.
too. Michelle Obama is a very pretty average woman.
As far as appearance goes.
Now look, I'm way below average. I'm not criticizing this.
I'm just saying that we all know we can look at Melania Trump and see someone who's ridiculously
beautiful. Right.
Model, super model beautiful.
Right.
They act as if Michelle Obama is as good looking as Melania Trump or honestly,
much more, much better looking.
Yeah.
And it's just, it's just ridiculous.
Okay.
It's just ridiculous.
We should all be able to admit the fact that not everyone in politics is beautiful
just because you like their policies of higher taxes.
That doesn't make them beautiful.
Okay?
It's okay.
She's just average.
That's fine.
Wow.
If that's what you took as the world burns itself down because of global warming,
if that's what you took from it, Stu, it just shows how far out of touch you really are.
It's hard not to look at it with all the flames lighting her up.

Well, we know this week during the convention,
it's going to be agonizing on a lot of fronts,
but one of the fronts is climate change.
And they're going to say that we're all going to die in the next 10 years, and none of that is true.
As people who actually care about the planet, actually care about the environment and would like to see politics taken out of it, what can we do, what is nonsense, what is real, we thought we would get Bjorn Lumberg on.
He is the skeptical environmentalist.
He is a guy who will take all of the IPCC studies and say, let's just take the science at face value.
Now, are any of the solutions good?
What should we prioritize?
What should be done?
His book is called False Alarm.

Author of False Alarm, president of the Copenhagen Consensus Center, visiting fellow from the Hoover Institution, I believe he was,
part of our first climate special that we did at CNN back when CNN actually would have opposing views on,
kind of.
It took everything in them to let us do that special.
But I am somebody who I own property out west in the mountains.
I believe in the environment.
I love trees.
I love animals.
And I want to keep our water and our air clean and pure.
I don't know of anybody who doesn't care about that.
I'm sure they exist,
but I don't know anybody who doesn't care about that.
The problem seems to be with taking the climate change attitude
and then applying it into an emergency panic,
everybody's going to die quickly,
and so we have to do this.
Well, what should we do?
Beyond Lomberg is joining us now.
Bjorn, how are you, sir?
Hey, Clint.
I'm good. How are you?
I'm very good.
So we wanted to talk to you about a couple of things, the alarmism.
But first, who is this book targeted to?
A lot of people.
And very many people are really, really worried about global warming.
And especially their kids are worried about global warming.
Lots of kids are saying, why should I study if there's no future for me because of global warming?
And that certainly is what we're being told.
A new survey showed that almost half of the entire global warming.
population now believes that global warming will lead to the extinction of the human race.
And that is simply crazy. Look, global warming is a real problem. It's something we should fix,
but we need to get a set in proportion. The UN Climate Panel tells us that by the 2007s,
the impact of global warming will be equivalent to somewhere between 0.2 and 2% average income.
remember by then you want to expect that we'll be two and a half times richer so instead of being two and a half times richer we'll be slightly less than two and a half times richer by 2007 that's a problem that's not the end of the world so this book is really to all the people who are worried and of course all the people they know who are worried and telling look it's a problem not the end of the world so you're kind of in the category of michael schellenberger that uh except you're probably more in like
line with the IPCC, you take those reports as, as gospel and say, look, we're just going to
accept this as fact.
But then you look for the things that we can do that will actually make a difference.
Would you put yourself kind of in Michael Schellenberger's kind of place?
And I think there's a lot of people in that camp, because honestly, what that means is you take
what the science is telling us, there is a problem.
But then you also insist, we.
need to look at the economics of climate change and actually take the best science there,
and most people don't. Remember, I take my starting point in the guy who actually got the
only Nobel Prize in climate economics, William Northhouse from Yale University. And he says,
as do almost everyone in climate economics, that there is a real problem with climate change,
So probably in the order of 3 to 4% GDP by the end of the century.
That means if you can fix a substantial part for a low cost, that's a good idea.
But it's crazy to try to fix a 3 to 4% problem by incurring 30% of your GDP.
And that's what you're, I mean, you did an article in USA Today, climate change.
Democratic alarmism leads to failing policies.
Can you take us through that?
Look, there's a real problem.
And much to, as you pointed out, they believe that this is going to lead to the end of the world in, you know, 10 years.
It was the case if this was a, you know, a meteor or hurtling towards Earth, the only thing you should be doing would be to worry about global warming.
You know, you just throw everything in the kitchen sink and this.
Send up Bruce Willis and everybody else and, you know, fix that meteor.
Right.
But the reality is, they're a problem.
It's not a zero problem.
it's a 3 to 4% problem over the next 80 years.
And so the risk and what they're clearly suggesting is, you know, we should have no new
gasoline cars by 2035 and fossil fuels in power sector in 2040, basically get the U.S.
to net zero.
So emit no new CO2 in 2050.
Nominally inexpensive.
Remember, we only have one estimate that actually shows how costly that will be.
So lots of nations have promised to them.
brave enough to actually ask, so how much is that going to cost?
That was New Zealand.
So, you know, left-wing New Zealand actually asked how much is this going to cost them?
Their preeminent estimate was this is going to cost us at least 30 percent.
Oh, my gosh.
That for the U.S. is equivalent to a billion dollars every year.
Remember, that's more than what the entire national federal budget is right now.
Every year.
It's twice that a $5 trillion is $2.000.
twice the revenues of the United States of America.
So you tax it's twice the revenues just for that.
Yeah.
And remember, because most of the problem from global warming does not actually come from rich countries
because we've already sort of peaked and we're increasingly going towards just producing services,
which emits very little CO2.
But most of the rest of the world, so China, India, Africa, Latin America still want to get rich.
They want to get to where we are today.
and they will mostly be able to do that by using much more cheap and readily available energy.
And trying telling them, I'm sorry, you can't do what we did.
Unbelievable.
I'm sorry, you'll just have to stay poor.
Yeah.
It's absolutely irresponsible.
But you're not talking about when you talk to global warming people, the zealots, you can't get them to talk about nuclear energy,
the cleanest and the safest energy out there.
you can't get them to talk about that um you can't talk to them about let's help africa um grow to be a richer and
you know an industrial nation and go through the industrial revolution but in a clean way we can help them
get into the 21st century um by giving them power nobody wants to nobody wants to help them
um get richer and live our kind of lifestyle they're trying to just bring everybody down
to their lifestyle instead of bringing them up to our lifestyle.
There's certainly a lot of truth to that.
I actually find that when you confront most people with us,
especially well-meaning sort of left-leaning people,
they have a very clear twist in their minds between, on the one side,
they want to help Africa and the world's poor,
but they also want to fix global warming.
And of course, what ends up is very often,
they throw the Africans under the bus because they care,
too much about climate change. Again, if you think it's because it's the end of the world,
that makes sense. But if you actually realize, oh, wait, this is a problem like many others we need
to fix. You need to get much smarter. The reasons also why I wrote this book, that there are actually
really smart. Talking to Bjorn Lomborg, the book is False Alarm. That's a great one.
Bjorn, take us through some of this alarmism. One example you talk about in the book, and I've heard it
from a million places is that it's 170 million people are going to be displaced by climate change
coming up fairly soon. And that's what the science says. You go through that claim and kind of
show what it actually is trying, the story is trying to tell is a totally different perception.
Can you walk us through that one? Yeah. Pictures will mean rising sea levels. That's very simple and that's
very true. Rising sea levels, all other things equal will mean that more people will get inundated
and eventually have to move.
And of course, the more alarmist will tell us,
oh, my God, they're all going to drown.
But the reality is, of course, we actually adapt all of these estimates.
So one very, very highly quoted estimate said,
187 million people are going to get flooded
or are going to have to move by the end of the century because of global warming.
That assumes no one does anything.
So it assumes that everybody sit on the beach
and watch as the way start lapping up over their ankles,
and knees and ability they have to move or they drown.
But of course, in reality, over the next 80 years, we will adapt.
We will build better sea defenses.
We'll build more dikes.
We'll build more nourished beaches and all these different technologies that we've known
since five or six thousand years ago.
We know how to do this.
And that's why all the studies and this particular study that generated headlines
across all of the U.S. and Washington Post and around the world,
it tells you that if you do nothing, you're going to see 187 million people being displaced.
But if you do 305,000 people having to move, remember, that's half the number of people that move out of California every year.
Of course we can handle that.
You're being told a story that's 600 times more alarming.
And that's why you get really scared.
A single example, maybe it would matter all that much.
But unfortunately, this is almost entirely how we're seeing.
climate change reported. We're telling you stories that are only true under very specific and
very unrealistic assumptions like you don't do anything that you don't make any adaptation.
And of course, in real world, you will do.
So I want to talk to Beyond Lomborg when we come back. I want to take a one minute break,
but I want to come back and talk a little bit more about this.
For instance, hurricanes and the damage that is being done by hurricanes.
There's a real clear reason for that.
We'll get into that coming up in just a second.

Author of the book False Alarm, Bjorn Lomburg.
Do you remember being on our special?
on CNN?
Of course I do.
It was a different time back then.
And it's gotten worse because we can't talk about things anymore.
And you're immediately called a science denier.
And we've always wanted to base everything on science.
And I happen to believe that there is climate change.
It seems natural to me.
It also seems unreasonable to me.
that man, with all that we have done, is not affecting the earth in some way or another, of course.
So I want to get into some of the things that individuals can do, because that's the way it's always pitched.
You know, we all have to do everything we can.
So let's get to the real things that we can.
But before we go there, let's talk about the hurricanes.
Hurricanes, and this drives me nuts.
People are saying, oh, the cost are hurricanes.
Well, hurricanes are going up because we didn't used to live right on the beach.
And one of the reasons we didn't live on the beach is because the federal government didn't insure people.
You couldn't get insurance for your house if you lived right there on the beach where there's hurricanes.
But then the federal government said, oh, we'll insure you.
And now there's a right to live on the beach.
And of course we're doing more damage.
Is that reasonable?
Well, it's certainly the right way to describe this.
So remember, the number of hurricanes hitting the continental,
U.S. has actually declined since 1900. That's also true for the major hurricanes, so category
three and over. And exactly what you say, the main reason why damages keep going up is because
many more people live much closer to harm's way with much more stuff. So remember, Florida in
1900, there was virtually nobody there. The population of the coastal counties in Florida
has increased 67fold since 1900, whereas the U.S. population has only increased fourfold.
So obviously, much more stuff, much closer to Han's way, you're going to get much bigger damage.
That does not mean this is because of global warming.
And again, if you want to fix it, have subsidizing people's insurance.
Exactly.
They would feel more responsible.
So let's talk about another thing.
The Amazon, of course, everybody knows now that this is the planet's lung.
is true or false?
That's false.
A stable ecosystem like the Amazon emits no net oxygen.
So it's one of those many, many myths that we hear.
The world is on fire.
You know, you're clearly a denier here.
World is on fire.
The lungs were on fire.
Down on the bottom end, there was a ring of fire in Australia.
California is on fire. What's causing that except global warming?
To recognize that we've seen a dramatic decline of fire over the last 150 years, basically because we've gotten richer and we've gotten much more careful with our environment.
It actually matters to most people to make sure it doesn't burn. So burning rates also in the U.S. have gone down by five to ten times compared to the early part of last century.
But there is a problem with global warming.
It's likely that global warming will lead to somewhat higher burn rates.
Still much less than what we used to have, but it is a problem.
And again, we need to ask them, is the right way to deal with us, is that to cut CO2?
We should probably do that a little bit.
We shouldn't do this because of fire.
If you want to help people, you should perhaps make them stop building in what is essentially Tinder boxes.
Those are simple ways to make sure that you zone people.
out of very, very debt scores where they're likely to get burnt like in Paradise and other places in California.
Do you believe in controlled burns?
I mean, we stopped that in the 70s.
Sure.
Yeah.
And it seems, again, it seems like that is a very good idea most places.
And we know how to do that.
That's also one of the reasons why we've seen much, much less burn.
Global, we've seen burn rates decrease about 25% just over the last 25 years.
So we've seen a dramatic reduction.
There is part of this that's due to global warming.
But again, the extrapolation, the alarmism that we see in the media makes this very hard to understand, partly, that this is not mostly caused by global warming.
And that our best efforts, our best policies, have virtually nothing to do with global warming if you actually want to help.
30 seconds before the break, is this alarmism is really hurting.
because people won't pay attention once it doesn't happen, right?
Don't you think?
Well, I think alarmism hurts because it both makes us spend much, much more.
We're going to spend trillions and achieve almost nothing.
And it makes us fail to focus on the things that really will matter,
both solutions to climate, but also all the other problems that still are there.
Okay, we're coming back with Bjorn Lomburg,
and we'll talk about the things that we can do that we should be talking about.
We have to focus our energy.
There are too many fronts to fight on.
We have to focus our energies, and we quite honestly have to focus our money where it can be best used.
For instance, right now you are making phone calls.
You're going to continue to make phone calls.
You're going to need a cell service.
But are you working with a cell service that is spending money, like the big cell service,
to stop your freedom of speech or the Second Amendment or fund abortion?
that's what's happening they take some of their profits and they spend millions of dollars propping up things that you may be against i mean if you're for those things great stay if you're against those things
there is an alternative you can get the same great service everybody's on the same towers now patriot mobile is running a school day's
promotion until september 12th either choose a free phone or a free month of service when you switch and they will make a donation to to uh
Students for Life, which is fighting for life.
Do you believe in that?
Switch, now, do it.

There's more with Bjorn and Lomborg here in a moment.
The book is False Alarm, How Climate Change Panic cost us trillions,
hurts the poor, and fails to fix the planet.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
We have Bjorn Lomburg on with us.
He is the author of the new book called False Alarm.
If you remember, we had Michael Schellenberger on, who is an environmentalist, and so is Bjorn.
And he believes in climate change and all of that.
He just doesn't believe in all of the things that we're saying are going to fix them and the Green New Deal, et cetera, et cetera.
And he also believes this panic is ridiculous and actually harming us.
So, Bjorn, I think I want to start with what can the individual do?
Like, you know, I know somebody who brings, you know, Tupperware and doesn't use anything plastic, tries to keep the recycling down.
Does all of that stuff? Does that matter?
I would love to be able to tell you, yes, that really fixes everything.
But the honest answer is, no, it doesn't matter very much.
It's not that you should do it.
It's fine and please, at all means, do it.
Right.
But it has a very tiny impact.
But if we all did it?
well one of the advisors to the UK government climate he once wrote you know look we've got to
stop with that myth of every little bit helps if everyone does a little we achieve a little
if everyone does all of these things we will still just have achieved a tiny bit let me give you
one example so I'm vegetarian and you know I think it's wonderful more people become vegetarian
because it means I can get better food at restaurants but we should
we should not believe these stores that tell you that you can cut half of all emissions by going
vegetarian.
First of all, that's only with your food emissions.
The real number is close to about 4%.
But when you go vegetarian, vegetarian is also cheaper, and that means you have more money
to spend on other things.
So that means more emissions elsewhere.
Totally, you will reduce your emissions about 2% from one of the many compensating
senders for about $1.50 per year.
So you can buy offsets for about $1.50 and you can eat all the meat you want.
This is not what's going to fix.
I don't believe this is what's going to fix it.
Okay.
So we got to look at big things.
For instance, it kills me that people look at COVID-19 and these environmentalists have come
out and said, this is the best thing that could have happened because all we have to do
is just keep it right here.
Well, we're destroying capitalism right now.
We're destroying the free market.
And I believe that it's going to be the free market and invention and capitalism that
actually will solve these problems.
Are things like COVID-19 where we all shut down?
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
And I think most people would have a hard time arguing anything else.
But I think it's also a very illustrative.
case because the U.S., if you get a second wave in the second half of this year, you will probably
have reduced your carbon emissions about 10%. So remember, all of this suffering means you were
able to cut 10%. If you want to go to zero, that means you need to have 10 times these shutdowns
and everything else that you've been exposed to this year. Now, of course, this was not intended
to cut carbon emissions. Of course, we can cut.
carbon emissions smarter and less hurtfully than COVID-19.
But it does give you pause.
Your carbon emissions is really hard.
So remember when environmentalists tell us, oh, drive a little less, fly a little less.
The world has just done that.
It's like they all collectively decided to do all of that.
Yet the total impact by the end of the century will be to reduce temperature increases by about 1.5.
Obviously, millions.
And possibly billions of people have been negatively affected.
Well, okay.
Then, I mean, clearly the Paris Accords, those, that's something we should have done.
Climate change.
And again, the UN did that.
The organizers of Paris Agreement from 2015 actually made an estimate of how much would this reduce carbon emissions in the world.
The answer is 1% of what most politicians claim will come out of the Paris Agreement.
And remember, almost no country is literally.
up to what they promised in the Paris Agreement.
The truth is the Paris Agreement will end up costing somewhere between $1 and $2 trillion
for every year, and yet by the end of the century, it will only reduce temperatures
by about 0.3 degrees Fahrenheit.
So you will have a very tiny impact at an enormous cost, you know, $50 to $100 trillion.
That's a bad, ineffective way to try to tackle.
climate change, of course, one, that you will eventually lose voters for.
Is this just stupid people?
Is this a cash grab?
What is stopping reason from working here?
I think there's a number of things that play.
We talked about the alarmism at first.
If you're really, really worried, if you think, and I think a lot of people genuinely believe
this is the end of the world, you're willing to do anything, and you'll do it in panic.
of course you won't do very well.
You won't be very smart about it,
but you'll simply try to throw everything in the kitchen sink at it.
That's one part of it.
The other part is remember what is it that drives most media?
That's scary news.
Scary news sells.
And so you get this constant inundation of scary news,
and global warming is a wonderful provider of that.
Any storm, any drought, any flood, anything really from the weather can be branded
It has seen climate change.
So it's great for selling a lot of media.
And, of course, it's great for politicians because politicians live from getting your vote.
The thing a politician could possibly do.
And often they get to say this, and the cost will only come in the election cycle after next.
So I don't even have to worry about that.
I just got all the applause on your votes.
And then we'll worry about having to pay for it later.
All right.
So let's talk about real solutions.
And solutions, it seems to me, I mean, I was a big proposal.
opponent of the hydrogen car. You can run nuclear power plants all day long while everybody's up and then
use that dip at night to make hydrogen. They had a way to distribute it. I've driven the car. It was
great. I'm for fracking. More natural gas, not less natural gas, but every time there's something
that looks like it would be a help or a piece of a solution, it's shut down. So what are the things that
we could do that that environmentalist will agree to because they don't seem very interested
in anything once we get going.
Realization is to recognize that most big problems in the world have never been solved
by telling people, I'm sorry, can you do less of that?
Can you feel less joyful?
Can you have less welfare and prosperity?
That's just not going to work.
So think back in the 1950s in Los Angeles.
was terribly polluted, mostly from cars.
Environmental approach would be to tell people, I'm sorry, could you drive a little less
or maybe stop driving at all?
Of course, that was not actually on the agenda.
I mean, you wouldn't be able to get people on board with that.
Very large part of the air pollution problem in Los Angeles was the catalytic converter.
It was an innovation that you put on your car and then basically it pollutes a lot less.
Now, it has a cost compared to the immense benefit.
You innovate the price of green energy down below fossil fuels.
we can solve global warming.
But as long as we keep telling everyone,
and especially China and India and Africa,
I'm sorry, you've just got to be poor
because we can't actually make you rich
while you don't emit a lot more CO2.
That's never going to work.
What we need to do is to invest a lot more in innovation
to get green energy to be cheaper than fossil fuels.
Once we reach that, everyone will switch,
not just rich, well-meaning Americans,
but also Latin America,
for care, everybody else. And so you point to the hydrogen car, that may very well be the solution.
Remember, there are lots of people out there who believe that they know what is going to power
the rest of the 21st century, and all of them, our car included. But the point is, we should
invest a lot more in the research of those, because we just need one or a few of those technologies,
and those are the ones that will then power the 21st century.
I mean, everything changes when we can get the right battery. Everything changes.
and we should be working, we should be spending all of our money on research in batteries
and then looking for things like hydrogen cars that could be coupled with those batteries.
And then the problem is solved.
I don't understand how people can block every single thing.
And then to say wind power, which is so far away from reality, the land alone that it would take,
just to build enough windmills for a third of our energy need would be a third of the country
almost it's ridiculous and I mean you're so full of common sense if this was the green energy
movement what you talk about here was the green energy movement we would all be in lockstep but I
got to believe that you have been called a climate denier and science denier every step of the way as
well, even though you're not disagreeing with any of their science.
A lot of people find it's a lot easier to argue by just calling you names than actually
engaging in this conversation. And of course, the real surprises, if you're really,
really worried about global warming, why would you be proposing the same solutions that have
failed the last 30 years? If you really think this is the end of the world, is that a smart
move? Of course, you need to find better ways to fix us. I would probably be a little bit more
technology agnostic than you are because obviously some people believe very much in batteries.
Some people believe very much in hydrogen cars.
Other people like Craig Benter, the guy who cracked the human genome back in 2000, he's arguing
that we should put out algae on the ocean surface that grow oil from sunlight and CO2.
How cool would that be?
We basically be able to keep our entire fossil fuel economy, but we power it with oil
that we just produced, and hence it would be CO2 neutral.
Again, there are lots of these ideas.
All of them are not cost effective right now, which is why they haven't taken over the world.
But the point is, research and development can make that difference, and it just needs to make
it difference for one of these many technologies.
Most of them will fail.
That's fine.
We just need one or a few of them to come through.
And that's why I think we need to challenge people who are very, very worried and tell us,
we're going to spend trillions of your money on ineffective solutions.
No.
look, you have the right problem, but you're fixing it badly and you're wasteful with the money.
Let's do it smartly through innovation and make sure that we actually find something that will not just work for rich, well-meaning Americans, but for everyone on the planet.
Is socialism the way to go?
Will that help?
Well, clearly it's not.
I mean, I think we've already found out.
We need some sort of managed capitalism as we have in most countries in the world.
But the idea is to recognize what's in your hands or making command dictates on what you need to do.
It is innovation.
Think back in the 1970s.
We worried about the fact that there would be almost no food for India and Africa.
The solution was not to tell people who are, I'm sorry, could you stop eating so much and send it to the Indians?
The solution was the green revolution that we found a way to make much more food, much cheaper, much more effectively.
for Indians, which is why India today
has not had a huge
hunger catastrophe.
They're actually the world's leading exporter
race because of innovation
instead of just telling people
you're doomed and we've got to do it less.
And also I would add
silencing of people with
dissenting opinions.
We need everybody thinking and working
and being free to be
able to work on their own
style solutions because it could
come from somebody we least a
expect. Beorn Lomburg, thank you very much. The name of the book is False Alarm. How Climate Change Panic
Costs Tillions. Harts the Poor and Fails to Fix the Planet. These books that are coming out by
Bjorn and also by Michael Schellenberger, they need to be read to your teenagers. You need to
give them to your teenagers because your teenagers are being filled with all kinds of despair.
and the truth is that despair is a lie.
Bjorn, thank you so much.
We'll talk again.
People all over America are discovering now what a joy it is to cook on a rec tech.
And they're talking about it on social media, from pro tips to reviews to recipes,
for just about anything you would think about cooking on your rec tech.
And a lot of things that I would have never thought of.
We just cook some ribs on the grill over the weekend.
They were so good.
And my wife was putting, I don't even know what it was.
And I'm like, what is that?
And she's like, it's a rec tech recipe.
Sh, I'm like, okay.
It was delicious.
It is the top name now in modern grilling.
It's rec tech with its smart grill technology.
Sturdy design, hopper full of heat and delicious wood smoke.
The rec tech stands head and shoulders above any of the competition.
It's rec tech.
It'll be the last grill you're ever going to want to buy.
If you haven't taken the time,
time to go online and look at rec tech you're holding yourself back from the best grilling experience
imaginable visit rec tech follow them on all social media and sign up for their newsletter that's r e c tecue
with a cue at the end visit r c tecue rectech dot com you're listening to glenbeck is the glenbeck
program you know the the problem with marxism and uh and social engineering and all of this stuff that
the Democrats are doing right now is it goes against human nature.
Yesterday, we told you about New York City and how it's just, it's over.
It's over.
And the reason why it's over is because of tech.
People have realized now because of COVID, I don't need to go to work.
So why would I go to work in a city that charges me 10 to 15% more in a city tax?
I have to spend gobs of money to get anywhere to go ahead.
anywhere, to cross a bridge is 20 bucks, to, you know, to live and have an apartment is like a
mortgage anyplace else. The Democrats, one of their things is solving climate change is just
pay everybody and then have them just do whatever it is they want to do and they have to live
in a city. Well, if I don't have to be in a city, I'm not going to be in a city. I want to be out
someplace where I can see how beautiful it is.
It just goes against human nature.
All of it.
More on the National Convention coming up.
Is the Glenn Beck Program?
To hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
So let me give you just the quick highlights of the DNC Convention last night.
First of all, Michelle Obama outlined the qualities of president needs.
clear-headed judgment,
understanding complex issues,
and a moral compass.
She's not describing Joe Biden.
I don't know who she is.
Then the DNC focused on the Constitution.
But they opened up with the star-spangled banner.
I didn't know who these people were last night.
It's like you keep using these words.
I do not think it means what you think it means.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
We begin there in 60 seconds.
Stand by.
First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
It's a gold line.
The Federal Reserve is out of control.
I don't know if you've heard about this or not,
but the Federal Reserve is currently working with MIT
to hypothetically develop a digital currency for them to play around with.
I mean, to help manage the economy.
They're also now talking about opening Fed bank accounts for every citizen.
That way they could just deposit money into every citizen's bank account.
You just have to go and have a Fed bank account at one of the Fed banks.
Oh, that is fantastic.
Whoa, no middleman, just money just pours in.
On an unrelated note, meaning that very sarcastically, gold continues to rise in.
value. Projections for the next year are through the roof. I saw somebody yesterday comment on a
tweet of mine. He's been selling gold to his audience causing fear for years now.
Specifically since gold was $328 an ounce. That's when I started saying buy gold. That $320 an ounce is now
worth $2,000 an ounce. So, I mean, you're right. Whoa. What a bad investment, huh?
Goldline, please. I've told you, I don't buy it as an investment. I buy it as a hedge against insanity.
And the world, as you can see, is more and more insane every day. Everything the Fed said they wouldn't do, they have done.
We've printed more money in the last 90 days than we've printed in the last 90 years.
What do you say? You call Goldline. Tell them you want to find out now about their $5 gold Liberty coins. I just got some of them.
these couple months ago. They have them in stock again. Please tell them I sent you. Call
Goldline at 866 Goldline. Just get the information. Don't make any rash decisions. Don't
don't be stupid. Balance things out. Spread out your risk. 866 Goldline. Gold or silver. 866
goldline or goldline.com. Tomorrow night. The Democrats plan to rig election 2020.
You're saying that voter fraud is a thing. And I'm telling you that it's not.
and you're mummy in the water.
Glenn exposes the dangerous truth about mail-in voting,
and who is behind the real election interference?
Watch the enemy within.
Tomorrow night, 9 p.m. Eastern, only at blaisTV.com slash Glenn.
So last night, the Democratic Convention happened,
and it was bizarre.
but I want to actually, I want to go to Michelle Obama's speech and find points of agreement.
SOT 8, please.
Here's Michelle Obama.
Joe Biden wants all of our kids to go to a good school, see a doctor when they're sick, live on a healthy planet.
And he's got plans to make all of that happen.
Joe Biden wants all of our kids, no matter what they look like to be able.
to walk out the door without worrying about being harassed or arrested or killed.
He wants all of our kids to be able to go to a movie or a math class without being afraid of getting shot.
He wants all our kids to grow up with leaders who won't just serve themselves and their wealthy peers,
but will provide a safety net for people facing hard times.
Okay. Is there anybody within the sound of my voice take out Joe Biden,
all of those things.
Is there anybody within the sound of my voice that disagrees with that?
That I want kids to go to a good school, all kids.
I want a doctor to be able to see those kids when they're sick.
I want to live on a healthy planet.
I want all of our kids, no matter what they look like,
to be able to walk out the door without being worried about being harassed,
arrested, or killed.
Harassed is a really interesting word because I would like my kids to be able to go to college
and have a different point of view and not be harassed.
I would like to have a different point of view, not be arrested.
I don't want you arrested because you're a different color or a different point of view.
I want you arrested if you've done something wrong.
And I would happen to put looting into that category.
And I certainly don't want our kids walking through the door and feeling afraid that they might get killed.
But that's now happening with whites and blacks.
And it's happening with blacks more than whites, not from the police, but from blacks.
Black on Black killings is what's killing most blacks.
He wants our kids to go to a movie or math class without being afraid of getting shot.
Me too.
He wants all the kids to grow up with leaders that don't serve themselves and their wealthy peers,
but will provide a safety net for people facing hard times.
So do I.
So do I.
Tell me about Barack Obama.
Tell me about the Clinton Foundation.
Tell me about the Obama Foundation.
Tell me about how you went to a public office to serve.
And you still had student loans.
And now you're living in an $11 million house.
Tell me.
Tell me about that.
See, this is the problem.
We agree.
Just not everybody actually does those things.
Does Joe Biden want all our kids to do all these things?
Yeah.
But do his policies reflect those things?
No.
We want a chance to pursue any of these goals.
I want you to listen.
Here's number nine.
Listen to this.
And if we want a chance to pursue any of these goals, any of these most basic requirements for a functioning society.
Stop.
We have to.
What do we have to do?
What do we have to do?
If we want to pursue any of those goals,
any of these most basic requirements for a functioning society, what do we need to do?
We need to have everybody agree on a few social contracts like looting is bad.
That intimidation is bad.
That shutting people up because they have a different opinion is bad.
we need to have a functioning society.
But she says, no, no, no, we have to, what?
Continue on this thought, please.
We want a chance to pursue any of these goals,
any of these most basic requirements for a functioning society.
Then?
We have to vote for Joe Biden in numbers that cannot be ignored.
Because right now, folks who know they cannot win fair,
and square at the ballot box are doing everything they can to stop us from voting.
How true it is, Democrats.
They're closing down polling places in minority neighborhoods.
They are?
They're purging voter rolls.
They're sending people out to intimidate voters and they're lying about the security of our ballots.
These tactics are not new.
No, they're not.
And it's funny because these tactics were used by the Democratic Party to stop blacks from voting.
And you're doing it again.
This is the galling part of this.
This is why people can't listen to the other side.
And the other side can't listen to this because they don't believe any of us believe it.
Because too many of the politicians don't.
They don't believe it.
They say one thing and they do another.
But these things, the actual people do believe.
And last night's convention was,
was programmed for morons, self-imposed morons.
They're not, they're not morons.
They just aren't paying attention.
They don't feel like they have to do any work.
They just trust that, oh, yeah, I'm getting the news.
I'm getting the straight news because I like them.
And that's on both sides.
Because you like somebody doesn't mean you're getting the truth.
I urge you, do your own homework.
Don't ever take anything I say.
as gospel. Don't be a moron.
I've done my
best to make sure that it's right.
But I get things wrong.
Everybody does.
Don't be a moron.
People had to fight for freedom.
We're not even willing
to look beyond what's
being spilled out onto our couch.
That's true. Yes, that's
true.
No, it's not.
Do your homework.
We ask
people to fight and die and sacrifice everything for our freedom and this generation, our generation's
not willing to actually pop the hood and even look at the engine, let alone fix it.
Michelle Obama said, even when it all feels so overwhelming, working parents are somehow
piecing it all together without child care. Teachers are getting creative so their kids
can still learn and grow. Our young people are desperately fighting to pursue their dream.
that's kind of true.
It does feel overwhelming.
Working parents are somehow or another piecing it all together.
And any times they can't afford child care
because their jobs have been destroyed.
Teachers are getting creative?
Yes, but so are the unions.
The teachers' unions are destroying our children's future.
Our young people are desperately fighting to pursue their dreams.
Yes, while you tell them that they shouldn't dream because we'll all be dead in 10 years because of global warming.
Is that compassionate?
Are we being told and being shown to be resilient?
Who's talking about the average mom and pop business?
I'm tired of seeing Wall Street go up.
I know why Wall Street is going up.
I know why the stock market's going up because the Fed is in bed.
with big business and the Fed is printing money and giving it to big business and then on top of it
they are buying their stocks but who's buying your stock compassionate resilient and decent people
take heart you will be the ones that save the Republic not our democracy we don't have a
democracy. You will be the ones that save the republic. And it's not only
savable, it's worth saving. It's worth doing everything we can to save it. Where is somebody
standing up and saying, hey, why do we help the businesses out, the small businessman?
Here's what we can do. They want to open up and they want to open up responsibly. They're not
stupid they want to open up responsibly i can't open up my building i can't open up my building now
because if anybody gets sick in my building and i've opened it back up i could get sued by
anybody comes in walks off the street i can get sued where is somebody saying the small business man
needs protection from lawsuits over covid because you know that's coming
that's the that's the final finishing off bullet that's the bullet where the guy is just laying on
the ground you know he's bleeding out you know he's dead but you look at him because you have
spite and you put one last bullet in his head litigation is that last bullet
Governor Abbott
Governors around the country
President Trump
Members of Congress, members of the Senate,
where are you?
Help us
Because we know the Fed is already
helping those
who have helped themselves
over and over and over again
with our tax dollars.
We need somebody
who actually believe
believes in America.
That actually believes in us that the American people will do the right thing because we're good and decent and honorable.
And the only guy I see standing on that horizon, the only guy who actually, I think, believes in America, who just won't take no for an answer, is a guy that I'm like, really?
Donald Trump.
Donald Trump, that's the guy.
out of all the guys in the, out of everybody in the country,
that's the guy that we can count on now?
Yep.
Seems like it.
Seems like it.
All this crap you heard last night from the DNC is just really good writing and production.
That's all it was.
They don't believe a word of it.
Because if they did, they wouldn't be surprised.
They wouldn't be supporting the riots on the street and cutting of our police departments and all the other crazy crap that we're all seeing on television every single day.
I want to talk to you about AMAC.
If you're looking for an alternative to the AARP, I've got some good news for you, the Association of Mature American Citizens, or AMAC, the fastest growing 50-plus organization in America.
When you're with AMAC, you're going to get discounts on your car insurance, your hotels, roadside assistance.
assistance, dental plans, even cell phone service options that you might not otherwise have,
and many more benefits to make your life easier and save you money.
AMAC stands for the kind of American values that you stand for, courage, faith, reasoning,
all of the good things that are lost right now.
And AMAC fights for the freedoms we hold dear, like individual liberty, free speech,
freedom of religion, the Second Amendment, the sanctity of life.
Wouldn't you rather belong to an organization that fights,
for your values stands up for your God-given freedoms.
Stand with AMAC as they fight the good fight by becoming a member today.
The benefits are great, but the cause is even greater.
Join right now at amac.us-us-slash-beck.
That's AMAC.
That's AMAC.
dot-US-slash-Bek.
Amac is better.
Better for you.
Better for America.
10 seconds.
Station ID.
Before we go any further today, I just want to thank so many people for the really
kind emails that I've gotten from, I mean, Nikki Haley reached out yesterday and said,
congratulations on the induction in the Hall of Fame.
Really?
Yeah.
I mean, some really amazing people.
But I don't think I did an adequate enough job yesterday because I was trying to be funny
and everything else.
On thanking you, the audience, you make this job so easy to do.
You make this job a pleasure to do.
and the only reason why I'm still doing it is because of you.
It's not for the money.
It's not for any of the other stuff.
It is because I think we have a connection,
and I know you count on us,
and we count on you.
We get as much from you,
and maybe more than you ever get from us.
I also really need to sincerely thank
Stu and Pat and Jeffie and Sarah and everybody else that has been with me for 20 years
that saw this thing through from the beginning and always believed and never doubted
and has never ever turned their back or given a sideways glance towards what we were trying to do.
and I can't thank these people, and especially Stu, our executive producer, enough.
Thank you, Glenn.
And as much as I hate to say it, you absolutely deserve to be in the Radio Hall of Fame.
And it's a place you do deserve to be and should be.
So I'm glad you're going to be going on.
I have to tell you, I looked last night at the Radio Hall of Fame that just the Bs, you know, you can find alphabetically, just the Bs.
it is it's it's it's crazy who I'm joining uh you know jack Benny and uh Gary Burbank
and uh gosh I can't think of all of them now of uh George Burns all of these I take it back
you don't deserve yeah really I don't I don't I mean the names that were there people don't
appreciate radio like I think they used to. And so, you know, you've gotten down to people like me
in the Hall of Fame. No, it's not true. I mean, you really do deserve it. And it's, you know,
you went from, you've been doing this a long time and you've built an amazing thing here. And
it's been a hell of a ride, really. It really has. I thought about that the other day. I was,
like, geez, like that's, what else do you do? You're kind of like, you meet the Radio Hall of Fame.
Like, it's kind of like, that's it, right? You should just go.
home again.
Wow.
I mean, I think I've been talking.
I mean, go home and just turn the bath water on, a little warm, maybe bring a razor
in with you.
I mean, it's basically the ultimate honor of this industry.
It is.
It really is.
It's just like the Baseball Hall of Fame.
If you're a baseball player, it's that big of a deal.
And it's a great organization, sincerely.
And it's amazing that you're in it.
And congratulations.
It really is.
So thank you.
That's all I wanted to say.
Is the Glenn Beck Pro?
Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
Our sponsor is Relief Factor.
And I want to talk to you about Alicia.
She lives in Kentucky.
She's just about 50 years old.
She worked at the local grocery store throughout the COVID stuff.
And as a result, her knees, which weren't in great shape to begin with,
have gotten a lot worse in the last few months.
It got so bad by the time of the day that she was ready to go home.
She was literally limping.
Then she heard about relief factor on the rest of the rest of the time.
radio and she decided that, I don't know, that Radio Hall of Famer probably wasn't steering
her in the wrong direction.
So she started, you know, taking Relief Factor.
She said she started seeing a reduction of pain within a couple of days.
Within a couple of weeks, it was gone.
Alicia got her life back.
No more limping for her.
Relief factor, not a drug, but developed by doctors.
And 70% of the people who try it go on to order more.
So order the three-week quick start for only 1995.

I want to tell you a story here about a family with a disabled daughter who the family had saved up
to go to Disney World for a long time.
And I'll get into what is happening with a seven-year-old daughter,
but she can't wear a mask and covered by the ADA.
They went to the Magic Kingdom,
and Richard, the dad, says it was an absolute nightmare.
Nightmare.
I want to talk to Richard.
This is first interview on the air.
Hello, Richard. How are you?
I'm good. How are you?
I'm good. I really am heartbroken by this story, but I also have a few questions for you because it's a tough situation.
So you live in Pennsylvania. You live in Pennsylvania. What do you do for a living?
Maintenance and production supervisor. I was in an industrial accident. Both my legs were crushed.
We were actually supposed to have this trip last September, but because,
of the accident it got delayed.
Okay, so
your daughter
has already
and delayed
and tell me the situation
with your daughter. She has
what is the diagnosis?
My daughter's high functioning
autism but she has a
severe sensory processing
disorder.
Normal
sensory signals, whether it's feeling
or textures with food
or sounds. Her brain can't process them properly. It becomes overloaded. It sends her into a full-blown
panic. You know, I can, and that's if I do it for eight minutes or ten minutes. The second she bites
into it, she'll vomit because the texture is different and her brain can't process it.
Holy cow.
She can't wear her clothes because of the way it feels against her skin when we're sitting and
watching a movie. I can't put my arm around her because, you know, her heart's
starts pounding out of her chest.
She can't breathe.
She goes into a panic attack feeling like she can't breathe.
She doesn't, you know, special therapy.
It's called TheraPlay that, you know, it was great before Corona.
I mean, we conquered sound.
There was a time that we tried to go to a fair and a balloon popped,
and she ran into a four-lane highway that was next to it because of the sound
and the feeling of needs to escape because she's a child.
And they overcame, you know, a lot of those issues.
got us to the point that we could actually take this shirt.
First of all, Richard, just hearing that you can't put your arm around your daughter,
is just soul-crushing.
I truly feel for you.
So tell me what happened.
So you went down to Disney.
My Disney experience at a hotel, walked down the sidewalk to our building,
and into our room.
No need to check in for the front desk.
anything. We got up Thursday morning because we didn't arrive until late on Wednesday and then
at Disney resorts, but they have shuttle. Sure. So we got on the shuttle to Magic Kingdom because
we had a breakfast reservation at Chef Mickey based on her needs with food and only being able to
eat the bus. The driver asked about her mask. I said she had a medical condition and said, okay,
we got on the bus. We on that day. We sneaked down the sidewalk to it locate.
Off the bus, there was a security checkpoint, and that's where they stopped her about the mask.
I tried explaining, you know, we're just walking down the sidewalk.
We need to go to our breakfast reservation.
She has a medical condition.
She can't wear one.
At that point, they asked us to step to the side while a manager came.
It's going through the gate, staring at us, and my daughter started to try and run away.
My wife had a corraler.
supposed to go to Magic Kingdom.
We're just here to go to breakfast.
We just need to walk on that sidewalk.
They wouldn't let us go.
So, you know, we went back to the resort.
And there I tried talking with the management because it's day one of an eight-day vacation.
You know, what am I supposed?
Stervations to eat can't eat and mouth now because I need to be able to feed my daughter.
I'm from Pennsylvania.
I can't just turn around and go home shortly.
back and send an email to guest services, but I'm trying to figure something out.
Like, can I kind of something out?
It's almost the weekend, and no one's going to be here.
I said they still have a day.
Oh, my gosh.
And at that point, my own home, walking a flight home for Saturday morning, they told us,
they, you know, right from Star Vacation.
This isn't even a healthy adult we're talking about.
You know, it's a child who was made a little bit different.
and you see what happened with Southwest Airlines and Disney candidates.
You know, it's a disgrace.
These kids have needs and the speed you're coming up.
This is something that really needs to be addressed.
What are these kids going to do?
So, first of all, I can't believe Disney treated you and your daughter like that.
They usually are not like that.
But it just seems like everybody is, you know, no one is willing to take responsibility for anything.
isn't she covered by ADA?
Not that big of a threat and it's safe enough for casinos and theme parts to be open,
but then turn around and say it's such a threat that both ways.
Either it's a huge threat or it's not.
Can you, did you know that they required face masks prior to?
Did you call them and talk to them about it in advance?
No, so I open the app and pay no mind to it.
I take responsibility.
that because the face mask policy but they all right and you're wearing a you're wearing a face mask
you were wearing one and your wife was wearing one right and technically my wife shouldn't
breathing problems but we both wear one try to avoid problems with our daughter we don't want
people to think we're just anti-mask and flaunting the law or you know because she legitimately
can't wear one so we do so where does it stand now what do you
What are you going to do now?
You know, so Disney told me they would refund me when I checked out.
They told me they couldn't.
I had to contact a travel company, and they gave me to run around and had me call someone else.
And they had me send me email to billing.
I got a majority of my money back.
They won't give me a breakdown showing me what I was charged for the money.
I didn't get back.
Like, you know, three nights at X amount.
They won't show me any of that.
They won't give me a complete breakdown.
Um, but now, you know, my, I'm just from the support groups I'm on on like Facebook with other
altus, I mean, these kids lost all their services since March, you know, they're in person
therapy, their therapy, their therapy, their therapy, their therapy, their education,
they're in class support.
Now school's coming back around and they want the kids to wear masks or refuse them
entry just like, you know, spectrum or one day going to be, they need the services and programs
that were designed to help make them successful.
They need the social skills that they get from interacting
and being around other people.
For COVID, so to punish them are older
and aren't taking the steps to protect themselves.
You know, there is some people like my mom
who didn't choose to have the type of cancer she has.
She's high risk, not because of anything she did herself,
but so she doesn't demand other people stay inside to protect her.
She knows that's her responsibility.
Correct.
Okay. Well, you would thank you for sharing this story. This story is up on the blaze.com, and thank you for sharing it. I'd like to take this story back and meet with my staff and see who we know. I was just going through the Rolodex of my mind here of who I know at Disney. And unfortunately, the two heads of Disney that I did know have just left.
but we're going to find out what we can do,
and it's not really about Disney.
It is more about what's going to happen with services for your kids at school.
So let me give me some time on this,
and I don't know if we can do anything,
but let us look into this and see if there's anything we can do.
And let me get back in touch with you.
I don't think the end of this story is here.
Well, I appreciate it.
that very much. Like I said, from the support groups for other, you know, children, other parents
who have children with extra needs of guidance coming down, you know, to put an end to this
kind of stuff. There's no official word either way coming down. And we're just in an awkward
position. And I thank you. Thank you so much. Richard Ross. Thank you. And we will not leave
the story there. Back in just a minute.

special for you, Brave New World.
We have the look into what is actually happening with the Postal Service.
You're not going to believe it because it's not the story you'll find any place else tomorrow night.
I'm looking at this list of names that have been inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame that your name will now be up with Abbotton Costello, Mel Allen, Gene Autry, Jack Benny, Harry Carey, Dick Clark, Jimmy Durante, Rick Dees, Bing Crosby,
you know, Mike Francesa, Bob Hope.
This is disturbing.
I think they should take it away from you.
This should not be, this is not right, guys.
I was reading a farceal part of that list yesterday,
and I was thinking it's like, you know,
Carrie Grant, Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt,
George Clooney and Kermit the Frog.
It's like, no, one of them doesn't really work.
It doesn't really work.
But it's an honor to be inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame,
and I want to thank you for being such a great audience.
You make this job a pleasure to do every day.
