The Glenn Beck Program - The Biggest Biden Issue the Media CAN’T Ignore | 11/21/23 | The Glenn Beck Program

Episode Date: November 21, 2023

Filling in for Glenn, Pat Gray reveals to Stu an unfortunate connection to Joe Biden. Biden turned 81 yesterday, and the media can no longer ignore the president's mental decline. But should voters be... concerned about Trump’s age as well? Biden’s tendency to exaggerate his stories is getting so apparent that even outlets like the New York Times are calling it out. Does the media believe Americans are stupid enough to believe Biden is doing an excellent job on the economy? Pat and Stu discuss the discouraging trend of anti-American entertainment. The January 6 sensationalism continues with the Left and the media. Some on the Left are turning on Biden due to his stance on the Israel-Hamas war. Pat and Stu go through the latest instances of shrinkflation. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Starting point is 00:03:14 I can't believe I share my birthday with his brain dead buffoon of a president. How did this happen? Wait, what? What? You share... Pat Gray? Yes.
Starting point is 00:03:26 I, Pat Gray, share a birthday with Joe Biden. Yesterday was your birthday? It was. We did the whole show and at no point did you mention? That is true. What? That's incredible.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Seriously? Oh my gosh. birthday. I had no idea. Thank you. It's a little late. It is. It's not my birthday anymore. It's a great point. I even did a show yesterday on Studez America, Stu does Biden's birthday. Oh, wow. Birthday party. Yeah. Because we celebrated his incredible achievements and how wonderful president he is. And aren't they incredible? And it was short. Yeah. It was a little short, but it didn't last the whole hour. I'll tell you that. But I had no idea was your birthday. Oh my gosh, happy birthday. Thank you. I will say, and I'm just going to take a guess here, you do
Starting point is 00:04:07 not share the year. No, I do not share the year. Thank goodness. Thank goodness. About a half century between you and him on the year. I wish it was that long, but it's not quite now. No, not quite, but close. It was 18 when I was born. 18. 18. Yes. So that tells you something since he turned 81 yesterday. I mean, you could serve four terms. Yes, and still. His president. And then we'd start to have that conversation about your age, Pat. I'm sorry. Oh, man. Okay, so he did the, they did a low-key thing because they don't want to bring attention to it. So they kind of did all the birthday stuff out of the sight of the public. Because, you know, he's getting enough flack about how old he is.
Starting point is 00:04:53 And it's not his age, if he were 81 and he was spry and he was vigorous and he was, he had mental acuity. I wouldn't care. No, no, you wouldn't even notice. I mean, I don't know. Nobody would talk about it. Look, the left would. certainly, you know, blame partisanship for this. But, like, I don't get the sense that many people on the right are concerned about Trump's age.
Starting point is 00:05:16 And he's 77. Right. If he were stumbling around as much as Joe Biden, if he looked lost on stage every single time when he was finished with a speech, I'd be worried about it. Yeah. Now, he's mixed up Biden with Obama a few times. Where he said, you know, the president Obama's doing this and he meant President Biden. That's probably just because. About the extent.
Starting point is 00:05:37 He knows Biden's, Obama's the one behind the scenes anyway, pulling the strengths. I don't know. You know, I mean, that's not that big a deal. If it turned out that he was, you know, stumbling around as much as Biden, then I'd be concerned with it. I would too. I'd be concerned. And, like, I think there's a legitimate concern to, to, when it comes to political strategy, that you're having the biggest vulnerability for Joe Biden, because.
Starting point is 00:06:07 of the fact the media constantly will excuse all of his policy failures, the biggest excuse that the media can't get away with the, you know, just washing away is Biden's age. And I think there's a political argument to be made that the best way to take advantage of an 81 year old candidate is not to run a 77 year old candidate, instead to run a 40 or 50 year old candidate that can really show that difference and take advantage of those problems. I mean, you go back to Reagan saying, I won't take advantage of my opponent's youth and experience. So brilliant. It was a brilliant, brilliant line.
Starting point is 00:06:44 But like, you know, there was a gap there, but it wasn't a massive gap. Yeah. The gap here either is going to be half a century, almost. I mean, you know, 30 or 40 years, at least, or four years. and while I think the American people look at Trump and they have their, look, they have their problems with Trump. When you look at the average voter, they have plenty of problems with Trump. They don't have a problem with his age or his spryness.
Starting point is 00:07:17 Like, I mean, look, we went on, in 2016, we were in Iowa. We covered the Iowa caucus. And you were there, Pat. And we went flying around and driving around Iowa for like a weekend. Okay. It was not, we were not in it for a long time. And I remember after that weekend being like, how are these candidates doing this? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:39 It was exhausting. You're driving all over the place. You never know where you're going next. You're going in there. You're hearing the same speech over and over again. Sometimes it's the 10 or 20 people. You, you're all, every place you walk into has the same like eight old pastries that you always find up yourself eating anyway, even though you shouldn't. And so you feel terrible.
Starting point is 00:07:59 they're, you know, this is Iowa. It's not like, you're not going from Vegas to New York City. It was cold. The hotels, you're in like holiday ins that are, you know, well, you know, serviceable and fine, but like, it's not like you're in the lap of luxury. You're waking up. You're eating their continental breakfast with the pancake printer.
Starting point is 00:08:15 Yeah. Which they had at the, I just remember. That was the best part of the trip, honestly, was the pancake printer. But, like, you're not exercising. You're not doing it. It's honestly a really difficult life. The fact that Trump, and it's not.
Starting point is 00:08:29 really running that type of campaign right now to be sure. But the fact that he's able to jump from speech to speech and rally to appearance. At 77, it's incredible. Yeah. I mean, they've even basically announced that Biden won't even attempt it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:45 He won't even attempt it. He's not. He's going to run this thing from the White House. It's going to be the Rose Garden campaign. And they keep talking about that because that's what he's going to do. Last time he ran it from his basement. Yeah. And this time he's going to run it from the Rose Garden.
Starting point is 00:08:59 It'll be fascinating to see if it works because at the time he did it in 2020, he had an excuse, right? The pandemic was just kicking in. We were very early. Most of that campaign was run at a time where even the average American was like, okay, you know, understandable. He's not going to be out doing rallies. Like it wasn't even past the time where the general America, I'm not talking about the crazy leftist or the Gavin Newsom's of the world. But like, and of course Newsom was out at fancy restaurants this entire time. but most people were still in that point
Starting point is 00:09:31 where like, you know, I'm not like panicked about COVID on a day to day basis but like I'm not going to be taking any additional risk. I don't want to go to big crowds. There was a lot of that still going around at the time, especially on the left. Right? He doesn't have that now. No. There's no reason why this guy can't be out actually campaigning
Starting point is 00:09:47 and doing the work of a normal candidate. He just refuses to. He refuses to debate his primary opponents. He refuses for whatever reason to give Secret Service Protection to RFK Jr., which is one of the most psychotic things. Mm-hmm. Do you have any idea?
Starting point is 00:10:07 Have you ever heard of American history? Like, do you know the RFK? Does that name, those initials together sound? Just the FK part. He's a Kennedy. So does that ring a bell? Yeah, as far as, I don't know, protection? And I am no fan of RFK Jr.
Starting point is 00:10:22 I do not come from the part of the right who's like, oh, actually, he's great. I don't think he's great. I know people who do. I'm not one of them. I'm not one of them. But I'm trying to tell people, please don't be taken in by this guy. Please, by all that is holy, he's not a conservative. He's not at all a conservative.
Starting point is 00:10:38 He's got a couple issues that he's, you know, a couple issues you might agree with him on. A couple issues he's come to very recently and very suspiciously. Right. Do you buy him on the border? I mean, I don't at all. But whatever. But if you love his vaccine thing so much that you're willing to vote for him, just be prepared for an abortionist for a,
Starting point is 00:10:59 a guy who's going to be terrible on climate change? I mean, worse than any normal Democrat. Really? More than any normal Democrat on climate change. I mean, look, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, they're all bad on climate change. None of them have threatened to put Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh in prison over it. So, and potential execution. But anyway, that's off the topic.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Yeah. He has not run a campaign really at all. He's taken advantage. And there are some of these things that are. part of the game, right? Like, you take advantage of the incumbency. It's why incumbents win a lot. You take advantage of those perks. You're on TV all the time. You get these speeches. You get to fly all over the country and you don't have to worry about paying for it. All these things are part of the package. It's why most of the time incumbents win. That is different than what Joe Biden
Starting point is 00:11:48 wants to do here, which is honestly, hope you forget he's president. I mean, it seems to be his argument. What if everyone forgets the job I did? I mean, like, maybe they'll elect me if they don't remember I did these things to them. Yeah. And that seems to be his argument. And they're going to roll that out there and hope it works. Well, and his other thing is lie. Because that's what they do.
Starting point is 00:12:10 They just continually lie about the job he's done. This figure they continually use 13 or 14 million jobs. Oh, my God. We'll get to that in a few minutes. It's outrageous. Outrageous. And again, it's driving me out of my mind. But yesterday was the Thanksgiving turkey pardon thing.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Oh, God. And for some reason, he started talking about Brittany Spears. or Taylor Swift, or he got the two confused? Listen to this. Here's what he had to say. Now, just to get here, Liberty and Bell had to beat some tough odds, the competition. What? They had to work hard to show patience and be willing to travel over 1,000 miles.
Starting point is 00:12:46 You could say even this harder than getting a ticket to the Renaissance tour or... What? Rip Whitney's tour. She's down in... It's kind of warm in Brazil right now. What? What? I love the expression on your face.
Starting point is 00:13:03 What in the hell are you talking about? Is that amazing? I hadn't heard the clip yet. Yeah, it's great. I'll tell you how I became aware of this. And I just had a moment of just the same thing, moment you had this morning, Pat. I was walking through, you know, like some, you know, place the other day. They had the news on just random TVs as you're walking by.
Starting point is 00:13:26 and on the TV where those two dunces from TMZ just sitting there talking and on the bottom of the screen it just says Biden confuses Brittany for Taylor Swift and it's just like what world do we live in
Starting point is 00:13:42 I know we live in a world where our president in the United States is first of all talking about Britney Spears or Taylor Swift can't tell the difference between the two of them and then we have analysis by these dopes on TMZ about it That's, this is the timeline we are in as a nation. The only place you could find better analysis than that is on ESPN.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Yeah, yeah. Wouldn't that be great? Yeah, let's hear the sports guys talk about it because they'll clear it up for us. At least the TMZ people know the difference between Taylor, Switz and Britney Spears. Yes. And like the fact that like the guys on TMZ are going to be like, you know what, gosh, Biden kind of is an idiot. Is it? Like, he really is a moron.
Starting point is 00:14:22 He doesn't. Like they are, like these guys could. step into office today and have a more coherent policy package than this president. For sure. That is saying something. That is. It's a little disappointing. Yeah. So his advisors are
Starting point is 00:14:37 arguing that there's a double standard between Biden's age and Trump's age, because there's only four years difference. Well, it's about 40 years difference, acuity-wise. If you're talking about cognizance, yes. Trump is way younger than Joe Biden. You know, there's far
Starting point is 00:14:55 more far the reason we're not and we mentioned this already but just to put a finer point on it there is far more evidence of Biden's deterioration at his age than there is of Trump I mean Trump has misnamed the president a few times big deal it he has not stumbled around like he's got dementia no Joe Biden has and does every single day and he makes it pretty clear every single day that he has compromised He is mentally compromised. First of all, he shouldn't be in the presidency anyway, under any circumstances, at any time during his political career. Wait, can you be more clear? I don't know anything.
Starting point is 00:15:39 I understand your stance on this. Never, ever. I don't care if he was 12. He shouldn't, well, 12 he couldn't be. If he was 35, he shouldn't be in the presidency. There's never a time he was, no. He was never good enough at this. No.
Starting point is 00:15:53 As evidenced by the fact that he lost. over and over and over again. He kept running for president and losing. In 1988. There's a reason we didn't elect him there. All right. There's much more to talk about. We'll get to that in one minute.
Starting point is 00:16:10 Holidays have arrived, and it's hard to think of a better gift you could give someone or yourself than feeling good. Wouldn't that be nice? If you are a person who is living with all sorts of pain and maybe you've lived with it for a long time, maybe you know someone who's been in this position,
Starting point is 00:16:25 whoever it is, if they've been searching for just the right thing, the thing that can actually help them feel better, ask them if they've tried everything. Have you tried everything? Have you tried relief factors? Something that has helped a ton of people over the years, including our own Glenn Beck. Relief factor is a daily supplement that helps your body fight the pain by fighting inflammation. It's 100% drug-free. It was developed by doctors to keep, really just help reduce or eliminate pain completely.
Starting point is 00:16:53 over a million people have tried relief factors quick start kit and 70% of them have gone on to order it again and again. It's only 1995 and it comes with relief factors feel better or your money back guarantee. So why not give it a try? Visit relieffactor.com or call 800 for relief. That's 800 the number four relief. There's no better gift for yourself or for a loved one than feeling good again. It's Relief Factor. 10 seconds. Station ID.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Pat and Stufer Glenn today. The other thing with Biden, and he did it again yesterday, are these weird, repeated, discredited stories that he tells all the time. That's one of the strangest. Isn't that bizarre? And it's not even like he's getting help from the left-wing media. They have exposed that these are lies. They've actually done a good job on this, for the most part. They've called him out.
Starting point is 00:17:55 They've asked him over and over again, asked his people, why aren't you correcting these stories? Right. And they just walk right through it. The one he told yesterday, are you familiar with the Navy story? He was going, he was going to go to the Naval Academy to play football. Really? Yeah. I don't think I.
Starting point is 00:18:15 He was a wonderful football player, just an all-star, all-American football player. This was the story that he told again, this is, I don't know, we've probably logged about 10 times where he's told this story on Pac-ray Unleashed. By the way, I'm all Navy, but I was appointed. I was going to go play to Naval Academy until I found out the other guys in the backfield were a guy named Roger Staubeck and Joe Bolino. So I decided to go to Delaware. But our son, so I always used to prove for Navy. Okay, so he's going to go to Navy, despite the fact he didn't have a seditorial appointment to Navy,
Starting point is 00:18:52 which you have to have. He wasn't recruited to Navy. There's no evidence that Navy was ever, even knew the name Joe Biden when he was in college. They probably know it now as commander chief, but they didn't know it then. And so, and he was, he didn't play quarterback or running back. I think he was a wide receiver in high school. So I don't know why. That's hard to believe. That's a, I know. It's it. It's hard to believe he played football at all. I would guess that was a running offense. That would be my guess on that one. But wow, that's bizarre. Why would Roger Stobach
Starting point is 00:19:26 preclude you from going to Navy when he's the quarterback. And it seemed like, I don't know, you'd want a quarterback like that throwing you with a ball. As a wide receiver? Yeah, you think one of the best greatest quarterbacks of all time would be the type of person you might want. But again, that's throwing you the ball. It's been completely discredited. There's no truth to it. It's so weird.
Starting point is 00:19:48 And, you know, the other one that pops into mind immediately is the Amtrak story. Yes. You have that one too? Yes, I do. It's this. And then one of the senior guys on Amtrak, Angelo Negri, I got to know all the conductors really well. It became my friends. I mean, really, my genuine friends.
Starting point is 00:20:05 I happen to my home at Christmas and during the summer. I doubt that. And Ange walks up to me and goes, Joey, baby, grabs my cheek. And I thought the Secret Service was going to blow his head off. I said, I swear to God, true story. My gosh. I said, no, no, he's a friend. And it's not, by the way.
Starting point is 00:20:20 He said, Joey. I read in the paper. I read in the paper. you travel 1,000 1,000 to 1,000 200,000 miles on Air Force planes because they keep meticulous tabs of it. I said, yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:35 He said, big, I won't say the whole thing, big deal. So you know how many miles you travel on Amtrak, Joey? And I said, no, he said, the boys and I figured out at the retirement dinner. He said, they traveled 2 million, I think it was 180, but 2,200,000, miles.
Starting point is 00:20:53 So how did you get that end? He said, well, 267 miles a day, we figured you traveled 119 days a year for 36 years. And then you traveled as vice president. He goes, so, Joey, I don't want to hear this about the Air Force anymore. Now, he swore to God. Yeah. That was true. That's an interesting part of that.
Starting point is 00:21:12 Except for the fact that not only had Ange retired a couple decades before this conversation supposedly took place in the early 90s, he retired. but he was also dead at the time the conversation supposedly took place so it was a very eerie conversation if it happened. You're not going to put it past Joe Biden and just randomly talking to someone he thinks is alive but he's actually dead. So I'm just saying it was
Starting point is 00:21:36 a creepy conversation if he had one with Ange. Yeah, that's very I mean, it's so bizarre. And the Swear to God thing is an interesting part of that. Yeah. He doesn't care that he said that at all. Does not care, but he's a big time Catholic. Super, super Catholic man. Super Catholic. It's almost like a superhero.
Starting point is 00:21:52 He's super Catholic. He's got like a giant sea on his chest. The Glenn Back program. You know, there are some real heroes out there. Unlike the Joe Biden superhero we were just discussing, Tuttle Twins features them in their books for kids. We're talking about our American founders, those heroes. They are doing their biggest Black Friday deal ever with their books and their bundles
Starting point is 00:22:20 and some very special one-time bonuses that you're not going to see again. These are books that are an absolute must for your kids. I read them with my kids, Zach and Ainsley, they love them. Why? Because they teach important lessons and change lives. And they tell them through American history. What a concept. If you want to instill true principles of our founding, why not do that with your kids?
Starting point is 00:22:42 Because if you've noticed the education system, they're not doing it very well for you anymore. Maybe there was a time they were. They're not now. And you need to have your kids looking up to heroes who actually built the country so they can be empowered and self-motivated and think critically. You need the Tuttle Twins books in your life and the life of your kids. So check out their deal that's going on right now.

Starting point is 00:23:25 It's Pat and Stu on the Glenn Beck program complaining just a bit about Joe Biden. So bizarre, so weird in virtually every way. We're talking about some of his really weird quirks and the stories that he tells that have been proven lies. And he just keeps telling him anyway. It just doesn't matter to him that not even the Washington Post and New York Times are going with him on these things. and they've challenged him on some pretty good things like the economy, like his claim that he has saved $1.7 trillion. They've been over that again and again.
Starting point is 00:24:20 And I think it was in the Washington Post where they said he really needs to stop saying this. Yeah. And he doesn't. He hasn't. He continues to do it. Even now after the fact that it's reversed. Right. So we had that first, basically, the scam here in case you don't know, was basically he
Starting point is 00:24:38 took the worst year of the pandemic when everything was upside down. And all the emergency spending. All the emergency spending, we shut down the entire economy for months at a time. And so we had to pay trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars. And again, when I say we had to go back and watch my shows from March and April of that year. And I don't actually believe we had to. But regardless, we quote unquote, had to spend all this money. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:02 And we spent all this money to keep the economy afloat in their words. And so, and we had a lot of people not. working and losing jobs. So the entire economy was totally out of whack. We spent way more than we normally would and we took in less than we normally would so that the one year deficit number was through the roof. The next year, as things opened up, people go back to work that reverses. It had nothing to do. Any precedent would have, this would have been okay, happened under, right? Like you're reversing a shutdown of the economy. So the numbers in year two look better than year one, right? Everyone knows that's going to happen. At the time,
Starting point is 00:25:38 time we all knew it was going to happen. It would have happened if Donald, it would have been even better, I think, if Donald Trump were president, but you know, that's a counterfactual. We don't know. We'll never, we'll never actually know that. So they would say that this giant drop in deficit happened. And everyone knew it technically is on the board, but had nothing to do with Joe Biden, with the exception of he did make it much worse. He decided to spend even more and make the number worse. In fact, we know this as reality as the CBO projects these numbers into the future. When Donald Trump was still president, they said the deficit was going to be even smaller than it was when Joe Biden actually ran the country. The Congressional Budget Office projected numbers much better than what Joe Biden got.
Starting point is 00:26:24 Yet he still went out in front of the American people and said, oh, actually, I took it, took it down by $1.7 trillion. No one's ever done that before. It's incredible. Well, I don't know. There weren't a lot of presidents who had to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. Right. There wasn't a lot of, there's not a lot of other examples of that stuff happening in our society. So he does a thousand speeches where he brags about this. And now the next year numbers came out and he lost, it went the other way. It was one of the worst, if you want to give you a peacetime numbers in history where we weren't having a quote unquote war on COVID. It was one of the worst peacetime numbers in the
Starting point is 00:27:01 history of the nation. Again, a lot of that having to do with Joe Biden. And he still brags about the previous year, even though he's already blown up those numbers. Like, you could at least make the argument, okay, well, he did this and he's going to continue the progress. No, he actually made it much, much worse. And that's based on the congressional budget office's own projections.
Starting point is 00:27:22 Yeah. And yet he keeps doing it. So this calculus there politically is to say, well, what if everyone forgets COVID happened? this will work. Wait a minute. This can't possibly work. Well, what if everyone forgets COVID happened?
Starting point is 00:27:37 Then it will work. That's how dumb they think you are. And with their own voters, they might be right. Oh, I think they are. Yeah, I think they are. With Democrats, they're not going to, they're going to think, oh, yeah, that's great. Look at these saving big money in these Republicans. The evil Republicans keep accusing him of spending so much money.
Starting point is 00:27:57 It will work with them with many Democrat voters, I think. And he tried it again yesterday, as you mentioned, with the jobs. Yeah. Which is infuriating. What's his number now? Did he mention a specific number? Is it still 13 million or has it gone to... 13.954 million.
Starting point is 00:28:12 Oh, wow. Okay, so it's almost a million more than he was claiming before. Yes. It just keeps going and going and going. And this is how, again, it's the exact same scam. You know, it's very similar to this. You ever see a before and after picture of a woman and some... giant weight loss
Starting point is 00:28:33 with these really impressive numbers and she took this really questionable supplement that seemingly just ground up tree bark and you're just like wow really that happens and you're like well wait a minute how did that happen maybe she's just lying
Starting point is 00:28:46 no it's not that she's lying this has happened over and over again they've caught these people she was pregnant oh wow right so she's pregnant she gives birth to a child and I don't know you may know if you know
Starting point is 00:29:01 anything about the biology, and I know now we know that men can have kids too, but in this case, it was a woman. When you have a child, you tend to lose weight. Huh. I don't know exactly how that process works, but it seems like you almost like you've removed something from what would be picked up on a scale. Yeah. And so this is what he's doing, right?
Starting point is 00:29:19 Like you're removing essentially a pregnancy of the COVID numbers that weight everything down. You remove that, and all of a sudden your weight loss numbers look wonderful, and you act like it's the tree bark supplement. That's the Biden scam here. Everyone knows people gained jobs in 2021, having nothing to do with Joe Biden. Everyone knows when people came to work after the pandemic, you were going to have good job numbers.
Starting point is 00:29:49 What's fascinating about that is the reason the numbers look good is because the economy was shut down. A thing that Joe Biden and everyone in his party. fully supported and cheered on not only through 2020, but also into 2021 and 2022. Yeah. They were the ones pushing for the shutdowns. And then governors like Ron DeSantis were saying,
Starting point is 00:30:13 no, we're going to keep things open. And Joe Biden gets credit for that in his numbers. Even though he was saying he was Ron Death Santos at the time. Ugh, man. It's so disingenuous and requires an opinion of voters that so low. It's like this is one of the most defining moments in American history in people's lives. And you're saying, we assume they'll just forget it occurred. We think that little of them. And you know what? There's no president in the history of the United States who's ever been personally responsible for 14 million jobs.
Starting point is 00:30:54 So dumb. That's not their, their job is not to create jobs, really, but they do. they can contribute to it in a way by creating the conditions under which jobs can then be created by somebody else. But there's no president of the United States. Ronald Reagan, it wasn't creating jobs. No, not directly. You know, not directly. Except for the ones that, and this is for every president, sometimes they expand programs and create government jobs, which is nothing to be proud of. Yes. That can be proud of, but it is something that does occur.
Starting point is 00:31:28 But when you're taking credit for 13, 14 million job creation, it's just so ridiculous. It's just such a stupid lie. It's such a stupid lie and you have to think your audience is so stupid. You do. It's insulting to us. You could tell a classroom of kindergarten students that you created 14 million jobs and they'll look at you with wide eyes. Wow, that sounds like a high number. They'll have no idea, of course, whether it's true.
Starting point is 00:31:58 true or not, and that's how he thinks that voters are. Like, they'll just not understand the most basic thing about their lives. And now, what's also fascinating is in here, first of all, he does not compare himself to Democratic presidents. He only Republican presidents. And in that, they include Ronald Reagan. Now, everyone knows how successful the Ronald Reagan, the Reagan economy was. But, of course, he limits it to the first, what is it?
Starting point is 00:32:24 I can't remember how many months he does. Let's see, it's 33 months in office. first 33 months in office. Now, of course. When it was mostly Carter, Jimmy Carter numbers. Like, so his own party had a president who gave, put us in a malaise so that so, the economy was so bad, we had 20% interest rates. And the, everything was melting down. Reagan comes in, and his first couple years is reversing that with his policies.
Starting point is 00:32:50 And they nail him for 487,000 jobs lost. Jeez. Which is like, it's. Ripley incoherent. Like every part of this is a lie. And only could be believed by the dumbest human beings that have ever lived in all of human history. If you went back to caveman times, you could tell him the story. And they would be like, wait a minute, ugumboonga, we had the pandemic thing.
Starting point is 00:33:18 They would even be able to figure it out. And now you have a situation where Joe Biden is running his entire campaign. With the only argument being, my people must be so stupid they'll believe this. And honestly, can you, do you doubt that he's right on that? No. He's wrong in a lot of stuff. But man, his voters will eat this stuff up. They'll lap up every idiotic detail.
Starting point is 00:33:45 They will. Even with the mainstream media telling them, no, I mean, look, he's lying on this one. That's why you just hope that Democrats will wake up to how compromised he is mentally. I mean, I think even Democrats are seeing how bad he stumbles around, how much he mumbles during speeches, how lost he is when he finishes his speech and can't find his way off the stinking stage, how he can't navigate stairs. I mean, I'll never forget how a few, I guess it's been a couple of months ago now, in Ireland where he almost fell face first down those stairs. Did you ever play the, I mean, he stumbles. and fortunately there's a railing and he catches himself. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:34:28 But man, that would have been a bad header that he took there because he would have been hurt. And think, Pat, think of how terrifying this must be for the left. Oh, my gosh. Because he takes one spill like that. And you got Kamala Harris. Either Kamala Harris or at least the fact that like the numbers that show that almost everybody believes that he's too old, those numbers will skyrocket. Oh, they will.
Starting point is 00:34:56 Because people will be like, oh, my gosh, you can't even walk around. Yeah. I mean, the fact that he catches himself on a railing is the difference between him being the nominee or not. But it's really interesting for the Democrat Party right now. And I think it places Republicans in a really good place because behind Joe Biden, you know, like him, well, you've got Kamala Harris. She's going to be the head of the party if it's not Joe Biden. If he were to step down, everybody would say, well, isn't she the logical next candidate? instead of Gavin Newsom, who, I don't know, I think he's terrible.
Starting point is 00:35:31 He is terrible. Terrible. Legitimately terrible. And he's done an awful job in California. So I don't know what kind of story he's going to try to tell. But, I mean, he tries to put himself up against Ron DeSantis. And there's no comparison between the job he's done in California and the one DeSantis has done. No.
Starting point is 00:35:50 So you would think. And that's everyone knows because everyone's moving from California to Florida. Right. Right. By the way, they are going to debate. It's November 30th. November 30th. Oh, wow. So it's coming up in nine days. Yeah, nine days. That's going to be interesting. Yeah, it is. I mean, at the beginning when it was announced, it was sort of like a, wow, this is in some ways a risk for DeSantis, but also a good way for him to maybe show he can slam, you know, someone on the Democratic side and beat up on Gavin Newsom. But it was a little risky. I think now with the way the campaign has gone, it's only, there's really only upside. for for DeSantis. I mean, if he, if he loses to, to, he's got no momentum,
Starting point is 00:36:29 his, his campaigns over anyway, but he's already in, you know, in some trouble. Yeah. So you go in there and you, if he has a great moment against Newsom really dominates that debate, that might show people, wow,
Starting point is 00:36:41 this, this could go well against Joe Biden. And maybe it'll, it'll convince some people for the DeSantis argument that, you know, he would do a great job and be more electable than Donald Trump, because that's the argument he needs to make. And so far,
Starting point is 00:36:54 Honestly, the polls don't support it all that well. Who's carrying it? Do you know? I think it's happening on Hannity's show, isn't it? Oh, that's right. It is. Yeah, I think it is. Yeah. Triple-8-727. Beck, more coming up in a minute. For 10 years, now Patriot Mobile has been America's only Christian conservative wireless

Starting point is 00:38:27 all right not to put too fine a point on how bad a president we have but we've been talking about his bizarre little Bidenisms yeah one of my favorites is other than the train story and the Xi Jinping thing where he talks about traveling 17,000 miles with him
Starting point is 00:39:09 with Xi Jinping and he he talked about the one word that sums up America on the Tibetan plateau sometimes it's a Tibetan plateau and other times it's some other place where he was asking about it. But this is one of the weirdest phenomenon
Starting point is 00:39:24 that I've ever seen with any president anytime ever. And that's his weird tendency to tell people not to jump. He apparently thinks suicide is really funny. I've never heard anyone else discover this. I don't know how you did it initially. The only person I've ever heard discover this,
Starting point is 00:39:40 it's really fascinating. It's an amazing thing to me. But here's a few, just a few times. He's done it I think we've counted around 50, but this is not all 50. I see it. Don't jump. We need you. Don't jump.
Starting point is 00:39:55 I didn't even see all of it. I didn't see the bleachers up there. Hey, everybody. Don't jump. Don't jump. Bye. All of these are different places, different times. Don't jump.
Starting point is 00:40:12 Don't jump. Thank you, sir. Don't jump. Don't jump. Don't jump! Hey, man. Don't jump. You look crazy enough to jump.
Starting point is 00:40:31 Don't jump. Wow. Don't jump. Look. Bizarre. And we're coming. Don't jump. And this is just basically...
Starting point is 00:40:40 Thank you, Mr. Secretary. Don't jump. Every time he see someone who's higher than him. Yes. That's what he says. Anytime. And then last week, he did it with people. people below him and he told him,
Starting point is 00:40:52 Don't jump! Don't jump over us! Like, what? The Glenn Back Programme. 60% of the vans on Amazon come to a vendor-independent, like SAC MAGIC. Hello, here Camille, of SAC MAGIC. Our compresses of colds are fabricated, here-mame, in Quebec,
Starting point is 00:41:17 with the tissues that we've got in Montreal and the avi pusses on Sagney. Our presence on Amazon enlarge our basin of clientele to the world entire. Sac Magic, is the compresses that all the compresses
Starting point is 00:41:27 To do you have to do. From these enterprises like our own on Amazon.ca. What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Back Program.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Pat and Stu for Glenn today. And I got proof positive. We were just talking about this off air. Proof positive that there's no global warming. It got really cold last night in Dallas, Texas. It's going to be considerably cooler today. obviously the temperatures aren't hotter than usual, they're colder than normal.
Starting point is 00:42:41 Yeah. So that's, there's no global warming. Well, that's because they've added all these electric cars. Oh, it's cured it. That's what I love to. When you do, if you do happen to mention something like that, then it's because they already took care of the problem. Right.
Starting point is 00:42:55 Well, then I guess we don't need to spend the $140 trillion or whatever it is. They'll be like, no, it's not what that means. Uh-uh. No. Well, wait, you can't have it both ways. either we fixed it or we didn't, which is it? Well, we only fixed it enough so that we've got to fix it some more before it's really fixed. All right, we've got much to get to, and we'll do that in 60 seconds.
Starting point is 00:43:23 So here's an uncomfortable question you've got to ask yourself, what are your kids learning about American history in school? The answer maybe came to you through a Zoom call during COVID or something, but it was probably pretty scary. Good news, the Tuttle Twins are having their biggest Black Friday deal ever with their books, their bundles, some very special one-time bonuses you're not going to see again. These books are an absolute must. Our team reads them with our kids.
Starting point is 00:43:52 I do this with my son and daughter all the time. Why? Because they teach important lessons and change lives. If you want to instill true principles of our founding to your kids or any of your kids of any really loving, any really loved one that you have. It's an important message that comes from the Tuttle Twins books, and they'll actually enjoy them because they're interesting stories and fun stories as well. These are heroes that built our country,
Starting point is 00:44:18 and why not teach your kids the truth about them? What a novel concept that would be? What a novel concept. These books are the anecdote to wokeism and Marxism and the garbage kids learn at school or online. Tuttle Twins have two phenomenal bundles. This week only go to Tuttle Twinsbeck.com. and get the Black Friday deal and the all-in-one-time one-time bonuses, of course, that are available now.
Starting point is 00:44:42 It's Tuttle Twinsbeck.com. Tuttletwinsbeck.com. Fondly watched a movie I really wanted to see for, I guess, months now, and wish I hadn't. Have you seen the creator? Have you seen that? It's an AI movie? No. Glenn saw it, though. He, did he like it? He said it was one of the most anti-American movies he's ever seen. scene? Yes. Yes. Okay. He said it was like well done, but also one of the most...
Starting point is 00:45:13 Very well done. Really cool tech, you know, because it supposedly takes place in 2065. Okay. And so from that aspect, it's really kind of cool looking. And they filmed it well. It was good acting. But yeah, anti-American and pro-AI. Like, AI was completely peaceful and loving and benevolent and sensitive and inclusive and all the things you'd want it to be. America mean, selfish murderers, essentially.
Starting point is 00:45:44 Wow. Yeah, it was disappointing. And I thought at the end, okay, maybe this was, was this done by people from China? And no, it was not. It wasn't. No. Because it's seeing, you know. Americans wrote this screenplay.
Starting point is 00:45:59 And, uh, I'm like, how it's a matter with you people. I know. I know. Ash, it's so weird. I mean, look, I can complain about America. We do it from time to time. You may notice. There are things about America that are worth complaining about, certainly of public officials that are worth complaining about.
Starting point is 00:46:18 Yeah. People try to take our liberty and our rights from us. Yeah. But I don't get lost, you know, in this narrative that America is a bad place overall. It's a great freaking place, man. There's nothing better than it. And yet, it's always portrayed, it seems, in Hollywood as the opposite. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:35 I mean, not always, but oftentimes. it is. And I mean, that was a major release. That was a, I think that movie cost north of 200 million to produce. And, uh, there's just, why? Why did America have to be the bad guy? And AI is the good guy. Yeah. Very bizarre. Very strange. And you just don't understand why. Like I, I don't know, do, I mean, certainly probably not in China, but like, do other countries just have movies made about themselves that constantly like just show them in the most negative like possible. My guess would be no. It's weird.
Starting point is 00:47:12 I mean, maybe Europe, some European countries I could see maybe doing it. You know, there's probably a lot of, you know, British media that is just bashing great Britain. I could see that.
Starting point is 00:47:21 But I don't know. It doesn't seem nearly as common as it is here. Just, I know. I remember going back to, I don't know why I always remember this one dumb tweet, but it was years and years and years ago. And it was one of the first anti-Iraq war movies that came out.
Starting point is 00:47:37 and it was portraying the Iraq war as like, you know, typical. We treat our soldiers like crap. It was just the first one or the second. The second Iraq war. So 2000, you know, the George Bush era. And it came out and it totally bombed. Remember there was a whole series of those movies that came out. They were like Sean Penn, you know, like type era.
Starting point is 00:47:54 And it was like, they all came out and they all bombed. They went to the box office with all these big actors and all this publicity and just bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, over and over and over again. And some idiot from one of these, or it might have been. media matters, but it was one of these dopey organizations that obsess about, you know, everything that conservatives say. And Glenn was making fun of them. And they said, uh, apparently Glenn Beck's never heard of a loss leader. And I just remember thinking like, wait, what? Like you're, so your idea is that eventually there's going to be a lot of hit Iraq war movies that, that show, you know, that we were evil and we're just killing Muslims and, you know, wanted our soldiers to die and come
Starting point is 00:48:36 back with terrible PTSD or whatever the messages are of these movies. And I just, I don't remember the era of the hugely successful anti-Iraq war movies, even though like public opinion has turned on it at some level. But there was never any commercial successes that I can remember. Yeah. I don't know. I don't think people really like seeing movies about how evil their heroes are. Yeah, I don't think so either.
Starting point is 00:49:00 It's, I mean, a little uncommon. I mean, I guess, you know, some people on the left might watch a movie today about one of their heroes. turning bad like Jeffrey Epstein or something. But, you know, generally speaking, I don't think that's a huge way. Like, anti-military movies, there's been successes, right? There were some Vietnam, certainly big Vietnam successes showing about the military was bad. But nothing really ever came of the lost leader that was going to come out of the mid-2000s, anti-Iraq war movies.
Starting point is 00:49:29 I was just looking for the box office because you were talking about how many of these anti-American movies bomb. the creator grossed looks like 36.8 million domestically. That's terrible. Oh, that must have been a big budget too. Wasn't it a high tech like high effects type movie? Yeah. But this says it was a budget around 80 million.
Starting point is 00:49:49 So I overestimated this. Not super high. Not super high. Now, of course, a couple of things to take into account whenever you look at these movies. I've got a couple of friends who've worked in this industry and walked me through this several years ago. Number one, usually the $80 million budget number they use
Starting point is 00:50:04 does not include promotion. No, I think you're right. So that is usually either between 50% or 100, between 50 and 100% more than the actual budget to get people to watch this movie. This is why there was this controversy that came out, I was it, a week or two ago, where they had the Wiley Coyote movie that is completely finished and they just decided to just shelve it and take a loss on it. Oh, wow. Did you hear about this story? No. It was a, I think it was maybe a live action.
Starting point is 00:50:33 I don't remember the live actual Wiley Guy who did check this someone Google that real quick because I can't remember I thought it was
Starting point is 00:50:40 live action and I remember thinking I don't think I'd want to watch it also how do you show Acme Anvils landing on people's head when it's live action
Starting point is 00:50:47 Yeah Is it a saw sequel? Is it a sequel to some horror movie? But it I believe it was live action Anyway they Live action
Starting point is 00:50:56 and animation combination I'm getting the word from the studio So basically it was It was supposed to a big budget effort, well done. They went through the testing process.
Starting point is 00:51:07 It tested pretty well. And so everyone expected them to release it. And then they decided, now we're just going to take the tax gain for shelving it and getting nothing from it. And so why would you do that? Well, part of the reason why you do that is you don't believe it's going to be a huge hit and you realize you're going to have to spend another $80 million to advertise it to get it to do anything.
Starting point is 00:51:27 Right. So they didn't want to dump in a bunch more money. Now, they're going back and forth on that. There's a rumor now that they may actually wind up releasing it out. after all. But that is why a lot of that stuff happens. So first of all, you've got to add another 50 to 100% of the budget number to the reported budget number to actually get the amount they're really spending.
Starting point is 00:51:46 And then secondarily, the amount of box office revenue that they get is a top line revenue number. It's not the amount that the studio receives. So when you look at that number, you should cut it in half. Wow. If you get, really? If it's 50, if a movie makes $50 million, think of the studio getting a about 25 million of it.
Starting point is 00:52:05 And that, now, down the line, there are additional things to factor in, like DVD, you know, not DVD sales anymore, but streaming rights and all these other things that might wind up making the financial picture better down the line. But if you're just looking at theater box office, revenue wise, take half of it. And budget wise, add another 50 to 100% to it. I've also heard that the international box office take is not as good for the studios as the domestic. Yep. I think that's true.
Starting point is 00:52:31 I don't know the numbers, but that is, you don't, it's not as profitable. So when you hear a movie has done a billion dollars worldwide, that doesn't mean it's not nearly as good as making a billion dollars in America. So that is true. So that, what you've just discussed is a terrible bomb. Yeah. That is a terrible bomb. And so good. If you think of 80 million, maybe they spent 120 total and they made, instead of 36 million, they made about 18.
Starting point is 00:52:56 That's a disaster. That's a catastrophe. There's no streaming rights deal. Unless it comes. Unless it has the second life of suits, you're not going to be making that money. Wow. That has been incredible. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:08 And we should point out, by the way, you know, we make a lot of predictions that are correct. We're almost perfectly correct on every prediction we've ever made. But we were both way out in front of the suits thing. Before all you people watch it on Netflix. Yeah. And you were all like, oh, that's the best show. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:25 Pat and I loved that show for years before it made it to Netflix. And it actually took me years. I watched it. You've been talking about it for a long time. You watched it on the original run, didn't you? I tried to sell you on it on the original run. And eventually, eventually you got there.
Starting point is 00:53:42 I think the problem with suits was the name. Suits. Two names. Suits and USA Network. Those are the two problems with suits. Yes. But it is, man, what a great. What a great series that was.
Starting point is 00:53:56 I love that show. Awesome. Me too. The fact that now it is basically like, It's the biggest success in the history of Netflix as far as just total viewing hours. That's incredible. That's insane. It was a show that – wow. It was relatively popular when it was on USA Network.
Starting point is 00:54:12 But you wouldn't think it would be the biggest streamer of all time. Now, there is the detail that one of the stars of the show turned out to be a very famous princess. So that is part of it. That is true. You know, having her on the promotional – I think for a lot of people it probably hurts the show. They think, oh, God, I don't want to see her, Megan Markle. Which is a mistake. Which is a mistake because she's awesome in suits.
Starting point is 00:54:36 She's great in the show. She's great. She's actually really good. Yeah. But I think now there's more of a, there's a vibe that people don't really like her very much because of some of the stuff she's done since she's been Princess. Yeah. But take that out of it. It's a great.
Starting point is 00:54:49 And everybody else in the show is great. Didn't she have a podcast they signed on for like $50 million or something? And then she produced, was it 12 episodes? It's incredible. I think 12. I don't. And then they're like, okay, but bye. This is the same thing.
Starting point is 00:55:05 Would it happen with the Obamas? If you are liberal and well known for something completely different, like, that's your second life. It used to be going to think tanks or being a professor. Now they'll offer you $100 million to do a podcast. I mean, let's be honest, to do nothing. I mean, they'll give you $100 million to do nothing. Just like to have your name associated with their brand. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:55:26 You know, Megan Markel. Is she a good podcaster? I doubt it. My guess is no. I never watched her podcast. Maybe she's okay. I mean, look, she is a good actress. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:38 So maybe she's able to pull that off. But like, again, is she doing hardcore research going through and like researching these podcast episodes? She's coming in. She's going to a voice booth for 15 minutes and cutting a script. Yeah. And they're going to give her $100 million. Nice.
Starting point is 00:55:51 Like, you know, it's no longer like, oh, I'm a professor at Princeton and I teach one class a year. me, you know, a million dollars. Like, that's old school. Stu and I will reunite Pat and Stu on Spotify for half that price. Half of 100 million? Yeah. Speak for yourself. Okay.
Starting point is 00:56:08 I will do the Spotify thing for half of what making market. So you'll do it for 50? And I'll do more than, I'll do 24 podcasts. So. Wow, this is a high problem. I will do the 24 podcasts. I'll do twice the work for half the money. I'll do twice the work for the full amount.

Starting point is 00:58:32 because, you know, he turned 81 yesterday. You think that would be a problem? No. Is there a real, alarm happening behind the scenes that the president is simply too old to stake around for the four years. No, there's no alarm happening behind the scene. It's not about age. It's about the president's experience. That's what we believe. That's what they believe. As they say, the proof is in the pudding. I was put the president's stamina. That is true.
Starting point is 00:58:55 President's wisdom, ability to get this done on behalf of the American people against anyone. Anybody. It's incredible. She can say that with a straight face. Over and over and over, she has said that kind of stuff. He's the best communicator in the White House. He has the most energy. The 20-year-olds in the White House can't even keep up with them. Are they, again, do they have no legs? How is it possible that nobody can keep up with him? He shuffles everywhere he goes.
Starting point is 00:59:23 And even if your argument is, well, mentally, they can't keep up with them. Oh, please. I mean, first of all, there's a lot of dumb people in the White House. So some of them, maybe that's true. Yeah, maybe. But general, I mean, look, I mean, can Corinne Jean-Pierre keep up with? anybody? I mean, she's an idiot. She's a complete moron in every single way. Of course, she can't keep up with anybody. She can't keep up with a sausage. She has the IQ of a breakfast meat. Yeah. So, of course,
Starting point is 00:59:51 she can't keep up with anybody. A breakfast meat? I don't know. Maybe a luncheon, like a processed bologna type. Like a thin slice of turkey. Maybe, okay. Okay. That's possible. But look, we all know she's an idiot. And maybe she, maybe she is legitimately impressed by Joe Biden. I mean, considering where she's coming from, it's possible. True. But everyone knows that Joe Biden has these struggles. And this was their argument. Like, behind the scenes, you don't understand how incredible it is.
Starting point is 01:00:17 Proof is in the pudding. And that's great. The Bidenomics thing is great. This is what's fantastic about their approach here to this election. They've decided to take responsibility for all of these horrible failures. Usually presidents blame the other guy. Yeah. And the fact that they're running against the other guy again, which is pretty rare,
Starting point is 01:00:36 gives you a unique opportunity to say, actually, this is all Trump's fault. I don't know how. But believe me, the media will carry the water for you. It's a definite gift. They will say anything you want them to say about how bad Trump is. Instead, they're like, actually, Bidenomics is working.
Starting point is 01:00:51 Actually, you don't understand how great this is. Actually, he's really, really smart behind the scenes. Actually, you don't understand. Everything that you feel about life on a daily basis is actually not true. It's the opposite. Just believe that. But how's that working for him poorly? Where's his, let's say, a proof?
Starting point is 01:01:06 ratings on like, I don't know, NBC's poll. Yes, very low. In fact, in fact, it's a new low for Joe Biden. We actually came up with a, on Studeau's America, you know, we go through polls a decent amount. And I kept saying over and over again, like, oh, hey, it's another, it's a new low for Joe Biden. We just came up with a whole segment called Biden's new low because there was always a new
Starting point is 01:01:27 low to be discussed. And this was another example of it on yesterday's program. He's down at 40%. You might say 40%. That sounds really good. Well, this is an NBC. poll that has been favorable to Biden. So it's shown higher approval ratings throughout. Upper 40s, maybe? Mid 40s, mid and upper 40s over the past a year or so. And now it's down to
Starting point is 01:01:46 40%, which is catastrophic for that particular poll. This has happened over and over and over again. And again, he's losing to Trump. Now, it's funny because the main argument, the main argument for the Trump challengers is Trump's not electable and you got to elect me. And so far, the polls don't really support that line of argument. I mean, Trump is showing up relatively. relatively well in these polls, leading in a lot of them. And the argument for Biden is that I'm the only one who can beat Donald Trump, which it's not working for him either. No.
Starting point is 01:02:17 There's no real argument there. He has, now this is a poll that showed Biden ahead by four or five about eight months ago. And it has, about eight months ago, he was up by four or five, Biden. Then it was tied, and now he's down by four or five. It's going the wrong direction for Joe Biden. And look, I think the Democrats realize this as much as we do. It's just a matter if whether they have the balls to switch him out. I mean, in theory, it would be obviously the right thing to do.
Starting point is 01:02:47 But you need to do that through a competitive primary, which it will not allow. Right. Right. So he needs to step down if it's going to happen. He has to go the Axelrod way. Axelrod was like, it's got to be a Joe Biden's decision. And he's probably right on that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:00 And I don't know that I see that happening. He wants the job. He's wanted it his entire. life. Yep. And he's convinced himself he's good at it, I think. The Glenn Beck Program. So for 10 years now, Patriot Mobile has been America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. They've been standing behind their service and their values as a company.

And one of the things we love about it is the lack of pop-up ads or ads of any kind. You know, we finally replaced the toe fungus thing, which is great. Wait, what happens if I have a toe fungus problem?
Starting point is 01:05:38 I need it cured. Is there one simple trick? You're going to have to find the cure for it somewhere else. Yeah, somewhere else. After 68 clicks, I want to get that toe fungus cure. Well, after you watch a 45-minute video. Right. You know, where they talk about the problem, but don't tell you what the solution is.
Starting point is 01:05:54 until the last five minutes when they direct you somewhere else to buy something. Right. Yeah. Shocking. Yeah. That is one of that. I mean, look, it's a, it was a big risk by the place to do this. Definitely.
Starting point is 01:06:05 Basically to say no more ads on our website. I mean, how many sites are doing that? I mean, I don't know of any, really, especially on the conservative media space that are just saying, no, we're not going to do that anymore. The reason why they're doing that is they're hoping that you'll subscribe if you support this type of journalism. And another thing they're doing is majorly expanding. what the site does.
Starting point is 01:06:26 So, you know, look, the Blaze has always been a great resource to find what's important in the world, looking at, you know, what crazy bills are passing, what idiot said whatever else on the view. And all of that stuff is still be up there. But they're also expanding the unique journalism of the Blaze, putting reporters on issues. The January 6th one is one of the first real efforts at this. And Steve Baker, who's been done a great job looking at all of this footage. And he's had access to it before really anybody else.
Starting point is 01:06:57 He's gone through a lot of it and has already shown multiple under oath lies by capital police officers and other officials in these investigations. And including Harry Dunn, who was a big hero and was given the presidential citizens medal by Joe Biden. Big deal. Because of what he did on January 6th, apparently. And then it turns out he lied about a lot of it, if not all. All of it. Yeah. And sometimes I get a little uncomfortable with sometimes how the stuff gets presented on, even on the conservative side.
Starting point is 01:07:33 I don't know if you're like this, Pat, but I, like, look, there was some bad stuff that happened on January 6th. Just because the media has gone crazy and said it's the biggest insurrection since, I don't know, the 1800s. And yes, all of their stuff has been blown out of proportion. It was not an insurrection. It was a riot. Right. Nobody was killed. at least on on the capital police side.
Starting point is 01:07:55 Nobody got killed. I mean, you got to go through. They showed that after the fact that that was not what caused the officer's death. Right. Suicide. Yeah. And two strokes. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:08 Now, the first, the first officer that died died from two. And I was suspect of that from the beginning because his family was like, well, he had some medical issues. But then we didn't find out for a couple of months as to. exactly what it was. But it wasn't the fact that somebody sprayed bear spray in his face. Yeah, that's what we were told. Nobody was hit him, nobody hit him over the head with what was it. He was supposed, a fire extinguisher, I think was what we were told at the beginning. So it was just, it's been, and I know what you're saying, but I get so irritated with the other side talking about what a tragedy it was. Yeah. And how bad the right is.
Starting point is 01:08:48 Right. For the one time. This is what's so frustrating about January 6th to me. It's the one time they can point to. All of the thousands of rallies, I mean, how many did we do going back to the Tea Party era where we had hundreds of thousands of people gathered and not only were there no arrests, there was barely a piece of trash left over when they left. And that's become a cliche. Everyone loves to say that now, but it was true with this audience. August 28th, 2010.
Starting point is 01:09:17 Yeah, exactly. Over and over again. And that's why Glenn emphasis. size so much. It's going to be peaceful. Please don't bring your signs. Don't even bring signs. Don't dress up in the tri-cornered hat. Right. Just come out. Just come out. Be cool. Be normal. And let's have an important moment to celebrate and also hope for and pray for a better future for our country. And this is why, because he knew that that one mistake. One mistake. Got out of control. It'd be used to get us just forever. And look what's happened. And look what's happened. He was 100% right on that. And I remember at the time being like, why do we even talk about, why we talk about this so much? because Glenn would always say, like, you got to be peaceful.
Starting point is 01:09:55 And I was like, do you know this audience? They're always, they are. And I maintain that's been true even through January 6th. It wasn't, I mean, I know of no members of this audience that were involved in anything bad. But there were some people who were. And it is, I think it's a little, it's insanely ridiculous what the media has done, what the left has done to try to turn this into essentially the worst thing since the Civil War. Yeah. On the other hand, it, it is a little over.
Starting point is 01:10:22 to 9-11. Yes, ridiculous. Come on. On the other hand, it does, it's a little, I don't know, I feel like some of the defenses of January 6 go too far too. It's just like, all right, like it wasn't as bad as they're saying it was, but it was still bad. I mean, there's violence against police officers. I'm not cool of that. I have no tolerance for that whatsoever.
Starting point is 01:10:40 I have law enforcement members of my family. I got no tolerance for that. They shouldn't have broken things. They shouldn't have defaced the Capitol building. All that stuff is unacceptable. I think most people know that. didn't do it. They're just sick of talking about it so they don't want to acknowledge it anymore. Right. One of the things that Blaze has done really well has, is focused this on really specific things.
Starting point is 01:11:00 You know, as Steve Baker has gone through this, like he went to the, it was the oathkeeper's trial and sat in the courtroom every day and watched the accusations, watched this testimony and was able to go back and show the testimony made in court was actually inaccurate to what is on film. Yeah. A big thing, like people vouching for other officers. and then we will look on the video, they weren't even in the area when the stuff occurred. Essentially, there's lying, straight out lying.
Starting point is 01:11:29 I saw this, and they couldn't have seen this unless they can see through walls because they were on the other side of the building. Yeah, that's awesome. You know, stuff like that going on. And then in addition, the part that gets glossed over a lot here
Starting point is 01:11:42 is not, is we talk about the political debate around January 6 and what it means and how bad the right is or how great, the left is and how you know Donald Trump's bad and Joe Biden's good and that's why the media talks about this all the time
Starting point is 01:11:56 but there were actual real people who are in prison right now on these testimonies the fact that like people who who didn't commit crimes were put in jail based on testimony that we now know is not true and by the way nobody's picking the stuff up
Starting point is 01:12:14 the blaze is doing it and you know some people on the right are picking it up but like the mainstream media who who is, you know, who'll churn out a Netflix documentary for even if there's a 1% chance of somebody who's in jail that's innocent, will not pick this stuff up at all because, of course, January 6th, evil, we can't give Donald Trump what he wants, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So it's important that there are organizations out there doing the stuff that Blaze is doing it. So they do ask you to support if you can, blaztv.com slash Glenn.
Starting point is 01:12:42 The promo code is Glenn. You could save 20 bucks off the subscription, but really it's important to support this type of journalism because I don't know, nobody else seems to be doing it. Yeah. Yeah. And somebody has to. Somebody has to. And so we are at the blaze. You know, as Glenn said, one of the things that Harry Dunn made a big point of was that he, all these racial epitaphs, all of the racial stuff that was thrown at him. And Glenn made the point that it's the most video recorded event in history and there's not a single piece of evidence. video or audio that emerged to show any kind of racially charged event like that. How is that possible?
Starting point is 01:13:25 They're releasing what? It's absolutely impossible. It's essentially impossible if what he said is true. You would have heard something, seen something. But you didn't. But you didn't. This is just, you know, it's part of what the left does over and over again. They try to find ways to undercut conservatives and,
Starting point is 01:13:47 and what they're trying to do by lying about them or just doing kind of the, you know, both side stuff. I mean, they always like to act like these things that are huge events in everyone's life didn't exist. We talked about it with biomics where they're trying to say basically all the COVID. If people don't remember COVID existed, this will be a good argument. The same thing with the George Floyd riots. Like, I guess we are all supposed to sit back and act like that didn't happen. Like, these cities didn't burn to the ground. like, you know, people didn't actually enter police precincts
Starting point is 01:14:21 and burned them to the ground. They didn't loot target after target after target. None of this stuff happened. These people were just peaceful protesters, but the one incident they have, one, out of all of this time, I mean, you can name them. I mean, I say one. What else, what's the next one you'd name?
Starting point is 01:14:40 Charlottesville. Now, first of all, the people in Charlottesville have literally nothing in common with me in any way. I don't believe anything that they, believe, you go back and look at the views of the group of people who are responsible for it. And these are people that are in support of like universal health care and abortion. Like these are nothing, but somehow that gets associated with us on the right. I don't know how they call it the alt right, which is really, it's an alternative to the right, not an alternative form of the right.
Starting point is 01:15:09 But that's a whole other story for another day. They go down and they just, they pick up these little things. This stuff happens all the time on the left. These Palestinian protests have had all sorts of vandalism and violence associated with them. But since they're on the left, they get the... It's okay. They're beating up Jews in the streets, but that's okay because it's... Look, it's consistent with what Elon Omar believes.
Starting point is 01:15:33 Yeah. Killed. Killed. Killed. Killed. Killed. Killed. It's disgraceful.
Starting point is 01:15:40 But they don't care. They don't care. No, they don't. It really is. No, they don't. And they continue. to tell that story again like it's one of the big events
Starting point is 01:15:49 of the century and it was not as you mentioned an event that conservatives pulled off no it was not at all a bunch of fringe groups that had nothing to do and they try to beat Trump with that too because oh
Starting point is 01:16:04 he said they were really nice people he wasn't talking about the Nazis there no now is that do you know that because he said I'm not talking about the white Was it that part of the quote that said? Yes, that's how I know. Okay.
Starting point is 01:16:20 Because he said it. That part kind of gets left out. It does. It does. It does. The transcripts often. Quite a bit. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:26 That is one of those things when you go back and look at it. Yeah. Look, every once in a while, Trump says something. And that is a self-inflicted wound. Yeah. It does happen. It does happen. Often, though, this stuff gets blown out of proportion.
Starting point is 01:16:39 Everyone knew what he was saying. Everyone knew, like, there were all sorts of conversations about about statues being torn down. And the point is that some people who don't want statues torn down are not white supremacists. Right? Like these are people who think,
Starting point is 01:16:55 wait a minute, I question whether we should be erasing history. Even if it's a bad statue, let alone when they, when they're left, you know, drags down a statue of Ben Franklin or Thomas Jefferson.
Starting point is 01:17:05 But I'm saying like, even when you have like a Confederate hero or of some sort, that is maybe a controversial figure or definitely a controversial figure, though some people would say, look, even if it's a bad guy, you got to leave that up. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:18 You know, that doesn't mean you're a horrible person for arguing for that. Doesn't mean you support the policies of the Confederacy. But this is what they paint it to be. And they've done it successfully, too. AAA 727 BECK, more coming up. Tuttle Twins having their biggest Black Friday deal ever with their books, bundles, and some very special one-time bonuses you won't see again. These are books that are an absolute must.

This is a great deal and you're only going to get it this week only. Tuttle Twinsbeck.com. It's Tuttle Twinsbeck.com. This is the Glenn Beck program. Pat and Stu for Glenn today. We're just talking about the Charlottesville thing
Starting point is 01:19:13 and how the left has made that about the right and about conservatives, and it has nothing to do with that. Back in September, Joe Biden was at a campaign speech, and he said, you remember those folks walking out of the fields, literally carrying torches with Nazi swastikas, holding them forward, singing the same vicious anti-Semitic bile, the same exact bile, bile that was sung in Germany in the 30s.
Starting point is 01:19:42 And a young woman was killed. A young woman was killed. Then he went on to say that according to the official White House transcript, the former guy was asked, meaning Donald Trump, what do you think would happen? He was a sitting president. And he said, I thought there were some very fine people on both sides. And I mean this sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, that's when I decided I was going to run again. Then he talked for a couple of minutes about how his extended family urged him to challenge Trump because Trump was such a bad guy. And then he went on to tell this story. You know, you may remember that, you know, those folks from Charlottesville as they came out of the fields and carrying those swastikas and remember the ones with torches and the coup.
Starting point is 01:20:27 accompanied by the Ku Klux Klan. And in addition to that, they had, there were white supremacists. Anyway, they were making the big case about how terrible this was. And a young woman was killed in the process. A young woman was killed in the process. Huh, seems like we're having deja vu here, doesn't it? This is not you repeating the same story. No, this is Joe Biden repeating the same story moments after he already told the story.
Starting point is 01:20:55 Oh, my God. This is what people with dementia do. And my predecessor, as I said, was asked of what he thought. There were some very fine people on both. He went on to tell the exact same story, minutes later, same speech. Not days later like he usually does with the train story or the Xi Jinping story. Minutes later in the same campaign speech. Was he on prompter?
Starting point is 01:21:22 Do we know if he was on prompter for this? I don't know. I'm wondering if somehow, I don't know. I mean, the argument maybe. could be made that it was just pasted in there twice. Because he does say it, the only thing that would make me think... Somebody's head should roll if that's the case. Oh, for sure.
Starting point is 01:21:34 And then wouldn't you realize, though, as you started into the second... Well, I told you that already. Yeah, well, doesn't he say something like, as I mentioned? At some point, seems to catch himself. Doesn't he in that second part, the second storytelling? I don't see any evidence of that. As I said, moments ago. No, that doesn't seem to be...
Starting point is 01:21:56 And this is from the white... House transcript. So you would think they would put that in there. Yeah, probably would happen. All right. More coming up. The Glenn Back Program. What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Back program. The Atlantic, which is just a tremendous publication.
Starting point is 01:23:01 I guess they've noticed that Donald Trump is old too. Oh, wow. Is that true? Yeah. I guess so. He's mentioned Elton John. How old do you have to be? I'm really old.
Starting point is 01:23:15 Really old. Do you remember him? I frankly do. So I guess I'm really old as well. Wow. Really, really old. Because, yeah, I grew up on Elton John music. We'll get to that. Also, school choice.

Starting point is 01:25:32 Yeah. You know, thank you. Yeah, I just noticed it. I just noticed you're sitting just to my right. And we've also noticed, I guess, at least the Atlantic has that Donald Trump is really old. That's actually what the headline is. Has anyone noticed that Trump is really old? Is the actual headline of the story?
Starting point is 01:25:52 But it's not for the same reasons, really, is it, that we've noticed that Joe Biden is old and decrepit? Well, you know, that's exactly what I would expect out of you. Yeah. Exactly to cover up for Donald Trump. A right-wing extremist, a MAGA extremist, who's going to come on the air and tell you that Donald Trump is somehow different in the way he's handling things than Joe Biden. Somehow sharper, right? More active, more sprawl. more spry. The headline really is. Has anyone noticed that Trump is really old? He's younger than Biden,
Starting point is 01:26:27 but not by much, which factually is accurate. I fact check this one. But although I don't know that it's all that important, here's their case to tell you why Donald Trump is very old. First of all, it starts out just kind of laying out the full case. You know, get the big picture first. And then they give you the details. You know how they do that. And these really intricate stories. So it starts out with the big case, which is Donald Trump is an old man. Period. It's the end of that sentence. All right. Then they go on to explain how they got there.
Starting point is 01:26:56 He's 77 years old. Okay. When Trump was born, Harry S. Truman was president. And Perry Cuomo topped the year's pop charts. Betty White hadn't yet started her career in film. Oh. Israel and Pakistan didn't exist. Korea was like...
Starting point is 01:27:16 That means it was before 1947. Nobody's that old. No one's that old. Come on. But apparently... There is at least one person who is. Ah, okay. And it's Donald Trump, I guess. Korea was a unified country, and Vietnam was not.
Starting point is 01:27:30 The pioneering computer, ENIAC, ENAAC, I don't know, was just four months old. I'm missing that reference for whatever reason. The Trump's cultural references are dated and only getting more so. Elton John and the Rolling Stones. Oh my. headline his rally playlists. Nobody but super old, old people play
Starting point is 01:27:56 Elton John in the Rolling Stones. What was the last Elton John hit? What was the last Elton John hit? I mean, Candle in the Wind maybe. Maybe the 90s? The 97 version. He did candle in the wind for about 27 people.
Starting point is 01:28:10 Every time someone died. It was, yes. That's so true. Marilyn Monroe, Princess Die. There was somebody else in there too, I think. So. And there was like Mildred from down the street who died of old age. Yes.
Starting point is 01:28:24 In the wind. Yes. Which was a weird version of that song. I'll be honest. I thought he went a little too far on that particular version. So no one even knew who Mildred was. But I love me some Elton John. I mean, I think a lot of people do.
Starting point is 01:28:38 And I don't think you have to be super old to enjoy Elton John. No. Elton John did a song with collective soul. Elton John has done songs with a lot of contemporary artists. So there you go. Who? Doa. Oh, see, that's somebody.
Starting point is 01:28:58 Dua liba. Dua Lipa. Lepa. Dua Lipa, yes. Dua Lipa. Okay. I've missed that Elton John duet with dual lepa. Really?
Starting point is 01:29:08 Yeah, I have. What's the name of that song? Do you know? You don't even know. Oh, wow. Okay. But Elton and Dua have been a pair. Apparently.
Starting point is 01:29:18 Good. All right. I mean, he's one of those guys that is very influential, right? And is one of those people who... Elton? Or Dua.
Starting point is 01:29:26 Dua. Dua is a girl, right? A female. Okay. It's a female. I don't want to lock her down to that. I don't know exactly how she... Identifies.
Starting point is 01:29:36 Yeah. Looking back at the discography here of... Yeah, it's like he did a... What charts are these? This UK. He said... It was songs that have charted in the UK really recently. Oh, really?
Starting point is 01:29:50 Yeah. Where's the U.S. charts, though? Because then who cares about the UK? We beat them. And like, we already won the war. A couple of times. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:57 You know, it's like, why are we still looking? You know, he had stuff that charted, you know, certainly well into the 90s and, and, and, I mean, the candle in the wind, 1997. It's so goofy. Well, it went to number one, though. Yeah. That was a number one song and had several others that charted after that. done, you know, again, the UK is more popular than he is now.
Starting point is 01:30:19 Well, after Candle in the Wind, he actually had something about the way you look tonight, which charted on October 11th of 97. But the Duolipa won with Elton. Yeah, it was big. Two years ago. Just two years ago. Coldheart. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:35 And it went to number seven in the U.S. Wow. So that was a... I mean, now, again, that's... Look, we can overstate the impact of Elton's work in that particular song. And that's a duelipa. a song where they had him say cold heart a couple times but still. Oh, that was
Starting point is 01:30:51 it? Yeah. I mean, uh, did he play piano on it or anything? Did he help write this song? I don't know. I'll never forget the Kanye West Paul McCartney collaboration. When that came out and people were just discovering Paul McCartney for the
Starting point is 01:31:09 first time. Really? And it was tweeted out this Paul McCartney dude about to blow up. You know, people might remember him. Yeah, yeah. I feel like he might even get in the rock and roll hall of fame someday. Wow.
Starting point is 01:31:24 I mean, that's... I was going to throw it out there. Yeah, that's a lot. I don't know. So, again, this is why he's old. Donald Trump is old because Elton John in the Rolling Stone headline his rally playlists. Okay.
Starting point is 01:31:35 And when he had a chance to award the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor, his selections included, Babe Ruth, who died in 1941. 48 and Elvis, who died in 1977, perhaps. Perhaps. Included in the article. Okay.
Starting point is 01:31:55 But again, this is like their case that Donald Trump's old. And, you know, you go through this process if you are the left, your first attempt just to say, well, wait a minute, the thing they're accusing my candidate of is not true. And let me disprove it to you. They can't do that with Joe Biden because it is true. He is old. He is incompetent. He is incoherent. They can't bring him out for more.
Starting point is 01:32:13 They can't find the situation in which he would excel. You can't put him in a positive light. You can't come up with the moment where he will succeed because there's no chance of him succeeding. So all you have is, yeah, but your guy's old too! Your guys worse, right? Your guy's bad. That's it. That's what you do.
Starting point is 01:32:30 And so they are trying that now to say, well, wait a minute. Remember Donald Trump is old. Now, I think most of that will happen after Donald Trump wins the primary if he is to do so. Because right now, they're kind of content with Trump up by 30 points and they're, you know, look, they think they can beat him. Now, they might not be right on that. That is they were proven in 2016. They might not be correct. They may very well lose this election, but they are convinced they can defeat him.
Starting point is 01:32:57 And I think they're also convinced, and this isn't really reflected in the polling right now, I will admit, but I think that they believe Biden can only beat Trump. They don't think he can beat any of these other people. That doesn't, that's not necessarily the argument. You can make the argument. That doesn't matter. you might say that Donald Trump deserves it. And, you know, I'm not saying that you have to switch your vote because you, but that is how they look at this.
Starting point is 01:33:22 They say, look, Trump is a flawed candidate. People have their minds made up about him. And I don't know that that. Certainly people have their minds made up about them largely, about him largely. That being said, they also have their minds made up about Joe Biden and they have not made their mind up positively. There's a new poll out today, which is really bad for Democrats. This is the worst poll I have seen.
Starting point is 01:33:44 that's just saying something. The worst poll I have seen for Joe Biden. And this is the type of thing. This is worse than the poll that came out, the Siena poll of the swing states where it showed that Trump had a lead. This is only a national general election poll. But listen to this. This is just coming out from Harris,
Starting point is 01:33:59 which is a legitimate pollster, a nationwide pollster. Or, you know, scientific, relatively well respected. Trump 47. Biden. 40. Wow. Seven points.
Starting point is 01:34:12 A seven point lead. for Donald Trump. This is the worst poll I have seen, at least, that I can remember. Oh, what if it's a three-person race? And it's just as bad. Trump 40, Biden 33, Kennedy, 14. They also have Cornel West in there at 2%. But another seven-point lead.
Starting point is 01:34:31 Wow. By the way, I've been monitoring this. And I may do a piece in this for The Blaz or something at some point talking about what the RFK Jr. effect looks like. I would say if you look at all the polls, the majority of the polls have showed more negative effect for Biden than Trump. There have been some that have showed the reverse of that. You know, we played the clip of Al Gore yesterday.
Starting point is 01:34:52 Well, sometimes the CO2 goes up first, but sometimes the opposite does true. Right. Yeah, exactly. Well, so it could, this doesn't prove anything in these polls. I think the lean right now, though, is it's hurting Biden more than it is hurting Trump. They, of course, hate RFK. I think this is legitimately the reason he's not getting secret service protection. I think this is why. I think you're right.
Starting point is 01:35:19 I'm not saying they want something terrible to happen, but they want to punish him for doing what he's doing. And right now, I think, I don't know necessarily that's the way it's going to end. Like, I would not be shocked at the end of the day. They find out that it hurt Trump more, the RFK thing. I mean, he has much better favorability numbers on the right now than he does the left. I can't believe that. That hurts me.
Starting point is 01:35:41 That hurts me. That means you're not looking into him deeply enough. Yeah, I think. I think. You could maybe be excused for that. I mean, look, you know, he's been very public on a few issues and generally, like, you know, I'm a big Bitcoin guy. I like the cryptocurrency stuff.
Starting point is 01:35:57 And he's good on that. He's good on that. He's good for a lot of people on the vaccines. For vaccine mandates. He's fantastic on that. He's been better on the border lately. But he wasn't always good on the border. That's all.
Starting point is 01:36:09 I mean, a lot of the stuff seems to be, it seems to be newly discovered. hey, guess who my audience is. Let me talk about this thing that I just figured out last week. There's a lot of that with RFK Jr. And he's good on some like free speech things. Yeah, because he's been the victim of censorship. And he's been, of course, even if I don't agree with a lot of his viewpoints, and that's very much the truth, he should be able to say them in the public square
Starting point is 01:36:38 and he should not be censored for them. So I agree with him on a few things. But you, I mean, like, you know, we went through the idea that you should give race-based priorities for all sorts of different projects, programs, you know, college admissions, you know, programs, money that comes from the government in various different ways. He is in full, unapologetic supporter of all of that crap. Sure is. He 100% believes wholeheartedly at his core that. because of the color of your skin, you should get more things from the government than if you have another color of your skin. Now, I remember that that was a popular attitude back during the times of
Starting point is 01:37:22 slavery where people said, you know, I think only white people should get stuff and black people shouldn't. Very popular viewpoint back then. And it continues to this day with these programs that he supports. It's just different colors of skin on either side of it. That's all. But it's the same exact crap that we thought we got over a long time ago, but not apparently to RFK Jr. He is a supporter of that. He disagrees with the Supreme Court on all of these issues. And again, I think we mentioned this yesterday. He is one of the worst people on this planet on climate change. Oh, yeah. One of the worst on the planet. I don't know that I could name one that's worse. I don't, I mean, off the top of my head, I mean, like, you know, you could talk about Joe Biden and
Starting point is 01:38:06 Barack Obama. Name your left-wing politician. I don't. don't know that there's one that is worse than RFK Jr. on this topic. And I think for both you and I, both you and me, actually, I believe it would be. Abortion is our biggest issue. Being pro-life. It's hard to overwhelm the 63 million lives.
Starting point is 01:38:25 Yeah. That's a big one. That's a really important thing. Well, he's terrible on that. Horrible. He believes in abortion. Leave it up to the woman right up until the time of birth. Oh, okay. That's between she and her doctor, whatever. That's the kind of stuff he says. And I believe all murder policy should be that way. You should be able to leave it up to the murderer.
Starting point is 01:38:44 If I want to kill Jeff Fisher, for instance. Yes. Jeffie. Jeffie. I mean, you maybe wouldn't kill him personally. But would you take away my right to kill him? Your right to choose? No.
Starting point is 01:38:54 Yeah. We should be able to do whatever you want as far as his murder in the 2000th trimester. You'd leave that between me and my gun, right? So, I mean, again. It's a weird position. to me. And it's not weird on the left, right? It's not because they don't believe it's life. He's standard issue,
Starting point is 01:39:12 hardcore leftist on like half of the issues in his world. And if you want that, you can have it. You can have a, I mean, I don't know why you go light with it. You might as well go with Biden and get that on all the issues. I don't know. But to me, he's just not my
Starting point is 01:39:29 flavor. It's not what I want. But I will say that he has, because he was critical of the COVID regime, sometimes correctly, and sometimes, not in my view, but still he was on the right side of that as far as conservative voters generally. You're not radical enough on that issue. There you go. I'm going to work on that. I want to mention that. You need to be more extreme on that. More extreme. More coming up in one minute. So let's talk about the Tuttle twins. They have a great deal going on. And if you have that kind of
Starting point is 01:39:59 uncomfortable moment as a parent when you have to ask yourself, what are my kids learning about in school? The answer might scare you a little bit, honestly. But the good news is the Tuttle twins are having their biggest Black Friday deal ever. Obviously, this is a big week for this. And they want you to know about it because they've got deals on the books and the bundles and some one-time bonuses that you're never going to see again. So what do you do? Well, you need to go to their website and check out their deal. Basically, you've got a situation with our education system right now where things are basically shot. We've been talking about this all day. You've got people who are praising Osama bin Laden and his writings. That's the kind of country you're living in right now. You
Starting point is 01:40:39 need the books like the Tuttle Twins to get to kids early so they can understand the foundations of the country, not in college. It's too late. It's too late. And we talk about college way too much, I think, as conservatives. College is like, it's the end of your learning experience. Those first, you know, K through 12 is really, really important. These books are designed for kids who can learn these things early on and turn your children
Starting point is 01:41:04 into people who see the country as a positive thing, who believe. leave in the principles of the founding of our country. These books are key. My kids love them. Yours will as well. These books are the anecdote to wokeism, to Marxism, to the garbage kids learns at school or online. And the Tuttle Twinsinsbeck.com. Get the Black Friday deal and the all, really every single one of the one-time bonuses they've got available. And it's this week only. You've got to get them now. It's Tuttle Twinsbeck.com. Tuttle twinsbeck.com. Check it out now. Tuttle twinsbeck.com. Okay. Did we get to all the reasons why we've noticed now that Donald Trump is really, really old?
Starting point is 01:41:57 Yeah, that goes on and on and on and on. And I don't even get a sense as a really serious effort. You know, I think that's one of the things that we've learned by these things. They need to throw these arguments out there hoping some people will buy them. Yeah, they're just throwing anything against the wall, seeing what sticks. Yeah. And I feel like they have to do that because they don't really, they can't really talk about their own stuff. And what are they going to do? Hey, let me tell you about Joe Biden's record on the border. Can't do that. Joe Biden's record on Afghanistan. Right. He can't do that. Interestingly, one of his best policies, if you want to give him that, which there's not many, would be Israel, where he's been at least mildly supportive.
Starting point is 01:42:32 However, the drop in his approval rating is almost entirely due to his support for Israel. And like, we would normally support a bad approval rating for Joe Biden. However, honestly, in context, it's actually a problem because the reason why he's dropped in support is because the left is getting upset with him over Israel. So the drop is not Republicans or independents, which it has been over the last couple of years. These are Democrats who are big Hamas supporters, apparently, and don't like the fact that he's not cheering on Hamas and their decadication program. And my answer, my guess would be yes.
Starting point is 01:43:14 Yes, I'm worried about that. He'll cave. I think he probably will cave on it because, again, he has no principles when it comes to this crap. already been saying. Oh, you got to bring out the two-state solution. Well, okay, but one side doesn't agree with that, and it's not the Israelis. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:43:30 The Israelis have offered that multiple times. At least five, right? Yeah, at least five. Five or six? And the UN offered it in 1947, by the way, when Israel was created. The Palestinian state could have been. They just chose not to because from the river to the sea. Right.
Starting point is 01:43:46 They wanted it all. They want, they don't want a Palestinian state. Palestinian state, they want no Jews. They want Jews to be dead. Exactly. It's the same thing with a ceasefire, Pat. Like, has anyone bothered to stop and ask Hamas if they want to ceasefire? Yeah. I mean, sure they want to stop being hit, obviously, as everyone would.
Starting point is 01:44:04 But they don't want to stop killing. They don't want to stop firing rockets. They don't want to stop decapitations and murders and keeping people prisoner. They don't, and they won't. You can't get a ceasefire when you're holding hundreds of prisoners. I mean, and I say prisoners, I mean, kidnapped victims. Yeah. So it's just, it's inexcusable. The Glenn Back program.

Starting point is 01:45:57 Triple-8-727-B-E-C-K. In addition to shrinkflation, or inflation, there is now shrinkflation. Are you familiar with the shrinkflation? Yeah. Tragedy. Where they shrink the packaging, but charge you the same thing. And then it's like, see, we lowered. We kept our prices the same.
Starting point is 01:46:19 Yeah, and it goes from like 13.8 ounces to 11.4. Yeah, or less sometimes. Like yesterday, I was buying some strawberries. And they usually have these big, longer and wider packages. And I noticed that it's not a lot. as wide anymore. They kind of made it slimmer, but it's just as long. It just, they crushed it inside in the middle. And it's like, wait, and now it's the same price. In fact, a little bit more for quite a few strawberries less. I'm really not a fan of this trend. Would you prefer the same
Starting point is 01:46:59 packaging with higher prices or smaller packaging that you might not notice? Just be honest with it. Just be honest. Yeah. That's what I like too. Yeah. Like they had this thing with a Stubhubhub a while ago where they, if you know anything about, and look, I wind up buying tickets from Stubhub relatively frequently because I don't like committing to things in advance. So I don't know if we're going to go to that concert or that game until kind of the last minute. So I bought a lot of tickets through Stubhub. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:47:24 I've kept the place in business for many years. Mainly because the fees they charge on this website are incomprehensible. Like, it's like 30%. Yeah. 40% sometimes these ticket fees. It feels at times like it doubles the price. Yeah. I mean, it doesn't.
Starting point is 01:47:41 It's incredible how high they are. And at one time, I don't know, it was probably six or seven years ago, they rolled out this option to, you can see. They've always had the option of you can see the tickets cost with the fees, but you've got to turn it on. You've got to turn on that feature. So you can see with the fees, which of course is the only way it makes any sense to look at them. Right. When you're talking about 30 and 40% fees, of course. Yeah, you can't hide a 40% fee.
Starting point is 01:48:09 Right. They do it. But they try. They try. So at one point, they decided, you know what? We're going to do honest pricing. You know, you've seen these initiatives by companies before. And so they turned out, they said the default now will be.
Starting point is 01:48:19 You'll see them with the fees. And they turn it on. And you have to look back and find the exact amount of time. It was, I think, almost definitely less than a week. But it may have been like two days where they, and then they reverse their decision. Because everyone was going to the side. and be like, well, this ticket costs $250 on stubbob, and it's $180 on this other
Starting point is 01:48:38 site. So I'm going to go to the other site and they lost so much business so quickly. They just changed it and it went back to... You have to turn it on. Right? Because people didn't want to see the higher prices. Now, I argue, I want to see it. Every time I go on the site, I turn it on because I'm actually paying, right?
Starting point is 01:48:53 Like, why would I care what your price is without the fees? Why would that be of any interest to me whatsoever? Same thing with airlines. Same thing with all products. Just show me up front. Just tell me. Let me know.
Starting point is 01:49:06 Up front. Give me all the crap. I mean, the airlines, they do the same thing. They put the fees. You don't see it until after. Yep. But it's really frustrating. Anyway, long story short, I think people prefer the shrinkflation.
Starting point is 01:49:17 You think so? Yeah. I think when it comes down to it, they would say the opposite, but in reality would punish the stores if they just showed for the higher price. That could be. They do it. There was a controversy about Oreos recently where that's exactly where I was going. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:49:32 Yeah. You know the details? Yeah. I wasn't sure if it was true. It is true. It is. They've shrunk the cream inside. That's what they shrunk.
Starting point is 01:49:41 Not the packaging. Wow. But the cream, which is, of course, cream, you know, owning a cookie company. I'm kind of sensitive to that stuff now. Yeah, because the cream is hydrogenated vegetable oil. Right. That's not cream. It's not cream?
Starting point is 01:50:01 No. Uh-uh. But, I mean, it's mixed with. With high fructose corn syrup. Okay, well, that makes it better. Okay, and soy lecithin. Mm-hmm. And something called vanilla, which I guess is an offshoot of vanilla, I suppose.
Starting point is 01:50:15 It's not actually vanilla, it's vanilla. Vanillin. Like a villain of vanilla? Yes. Vanillin. It's the white superhero. It's the white villain in a superhero movie. Vanillan.
Starting point is 01:50:27 It does sound like that. This is the new villain in the Black Panther series coming in a vanilla. Right. Oh no, it's vanilla! So people have been taking off, you know, the top chocolate layer and showing how measly the cream inside is. Wow, that's bad because that's true with your formula. Yeah. Right?
Starting point is 01:50:47 Like, it's one thing to, you know, give fewer cookies or even make the formula, like, shrink everything down a little bit. Like, you take a few percent off the cookies, a few percent, but make the ratio the same. Because that's what's key about, about Oreo. And we've gone over this. We used to do a segment on Pat and. stew, the show we did together for years here on Play's TV, called Spoons. And we would long story of why it was called Spoons, but there's no reason to go into that. But I will say that, like, we would basically try a new kind of junk food every day. Like when McDonald's
Starting point is 01:51:19 has some new, you know, crazy thing on their menu, Taco Bell has a crazy thing on their menu. Oreo comes out with some new flavor. We would try it and review it. So you would be able to use your money wisely on the weekend. It was a weirdly popular segment. Oh, people loved it. Yeah. We got to the point where we were doing it every day. And after a while, it was really just an excuse to eat. To eat food on the air. Yeah. But also, I realized I was gaining a lot of weight.
Starting point is 01:51:39 Yeah. Yeah. When you do it every day. And then we would eat one Oreo and then we'd go, ah, and we get off the air and we'd like eat five more. Anyway, it was a bad decision. Long story short, though, one thing I discovered on that show was the discovery of Oreo Thins.
Starting point is 01:51:58 All right. Why would you want that? Right. Why would you, that was my initial, my uninformed take on Oreo Thins. That's my uninformed take. Really? Because you might not remember this. Why would you want that?
Starting point is 01:52:08 They're thinner, smaller Oreos. Why would you want? It's like the fun size that you get at Halloween. That's what I thought. That's not a fun size. A fun size would be four times the normal amount. Right. Right.
Starting point is 01:52:19 Here, though, is my actual take on, on Oreo Thins, is they are actually superior to regular Oreos. Really? Yes. and the reason why is all it's all about the ratio, the ratio from cookie to cream. Now, and as you point out, partially hydrogenated vegetable oil.
Starting point is 01:52:41 Yes. The ratio is far superior in the thins because the, yes, the cookies are a little bit like you, you're going to get less cookie. If you're only going to have one Oreo, you're going to get less food in your stomach if you have an Oreo thin. However, number one, as we all know,
Starting point is 01:52:58 when things are bite size, you eat more of them. Oreo thins are not bite-sized, but they are thinner. I'm getting hardly any calories here, but then when you have 27 of them. Right. And that's what you're going to do with the Oreo-thens. You're going to eat 27 of them. And then secondarily, the cookie, which I think everyone acknowledges with the Oreo is not the highlight. Everyone likes the cream.
Starting point is 01:53:16 You get to double, triple stuff, eat the cream out. A lot of people just throw the cookies away. And that's because there's nothing more delicious than hydrogenated vegetable oil. And high fructose corn syrup. That combination is, and vanilla. Yeah. Vanilla. Don't forget the vanilla. The evil vanillan who is coming to Woganda at any moment
Starting point is 01:53:35 to take out Black Panther. But this the situation is that the ratio is incredible on those things. Like it's a much more cream-based ratio. Because the cookie's so thin. So I can't recommend these things. The lemon ones are delicious.
Starting point is 01:53:53 I can't recommend the thins more. If you go to the store, get the thins. And you'll have 12 of them And you just be like, well, they're thin, though. It's a great argument to yourself in that moment. When you're in the, you know, you got your hand in the cabinet and you're standing there kind of over. And your wife starts nagging at you. And you're like, what?
Starting point is 01:54:12 You already had some. Stop. They're not good for you. They are thins, vanilla. Stop being a villain. Right. Right. So I would recommend the thins.
Starting point is 01:54:23 But that's different than this. Because when you screw with the ratio, then you're screwing with the product. Oreo fins has to be a different product. You couldn't just roll that out because it's a different ratio. It's a different vibe completely. It's not the overwhelming cookie taste. You get more of the cream vibe. And they're like little crispy.
Starting point is 01:54:38 Now I really want Oreo Finns. Does anyone have any? I'm sure somebody in this building does. Please bring me Oreo Finns immediately. Okay. I'm just telling that. That's just to the building. Please deliver them to the studio again immediately if you have them.
Starting point is 01:54:51 But they are tasty cookies. I think that was the point of this? I think it was. Are Oreo Finst tasty? Is that how this started? That's not exactly how it started. It started with shrinkflation. Okay, okay, that's right.
Starting point is 01:55:00 Yes, thank you. But the shrinkage of the cream center, which is everybody's favorite, as you already pointed out, that is really important. When you start scrimping on that, you've really messed up the ratio, right? Because you've got far more of the chocolate cookie outside than you do the Oreo cream filling, the delicious hydrogenated vegetable oil. And you don't want that. You want that.
Starting point is 01:55:23 You want it to be, I don't know, what is that? half an inch thick, at least. So rather than shrinkflation, you should be doubling. Again, they do have Oreo double stuffed, right? Where they double the size of cream in the middle. Oh, they have, not only that, they have more stuff, I think, and then the most stuff.
Starting point is 01:55:43 Have you seen the most stuff? I have not. The most stuff looks basically like if you ordered a quarter powder with cheese, but it was actually Oreos. So, like, the buns were Oreo cookies, and in the middle where normally you'd see a quarter powder with cheese, cheese and all the toppings, that's all cream. I mean, they've gone over the top on it.
Starting point is 01:56:02 Yeah. But good. Yeah. This is one of the things I love about capitalism. That's right. And Nabisco in particular, they will innovate. And that's one of the things I love about you is that you don't make any bones about your unhealthy food choices.
Starting point is 01:56:18 Oh, I don't. No, that's true. You probably eat more unhealthy than any other vegetarian I've ever known. Oh, I don't think there's a contest on. that. I thought you were going to put me just in the general scope of humanity. And then I think there's at least a conversation to be had, whether I'm in last place or not. Among vegetarians, there's no question.
Starting point is 01:56:38 Yeah. There's no question. Yeah. Nobody. Like, food is good. It's a delight of life. Food is good. It really is.
Starting point is 01:56:44 It's one of those things that can make you happy. It is, uh, I love it. And it's, it's delicious. And like, capitalism has made it so much better. There's so many options. So many incredible things out there for people to try. and to experience, and yet what do we have in a society that's trying to reverse every aspect of capitalism? Right.
Starting point is 01:57:05 Please don't. And let me give you a choice between the hydrogenated vegetable oil cookie and a cookie that's made with absolutely no hydrogenated vegetable oil. My understanding is the only way you can enjoy a cookie is with high fructose corn syrup. No. And partially hydrogenated vegetable oil. We have neither in kexey cookies. They're just, they're gourmet, they're delicious. And on Black Friday, we're also going to release a chocolate peppermint bread that my wife has concocted.
Starting point is 01:57:34 Oh, the breads are delicious. Oh, my gosh. Wait till you're dry. I've got to get this. My wife loves the peppermint stuff. I've got to get that for me. Get in on it early because once they're gone, there won't be any more being made until next year. So can you set it?
Starting point is 01:57:47 Make sure there's one set aside for me. I mean, just standing it's ready. She's got to toss it aside. Oh, okay. Maybe. You know. We'll see. We'll see how you are the next couple days.
Starting point is 01:57:57 You know, like, when we ever get approached in a park, the person's like, hey, oh, my gosh, these two speakers fell out of the van, and we've got them, and they got them for free. They overstocked us with extra speakers. Can you buy them from us in cash? You ever had that moment? You could do that with Kexi. You could, well, I could do it. You could be like, hey, this chocolate peppermint bread, it fell into my car. I mean, I, they're selling it for, you know, whatever on the website.
Starting point is 01:58:17 I'll give it to you for half price right now, and you just pocket the cash. Now, you are scamming your own company on that one. Right, which is probably not a good idea. but on Friday, we're also kicking off our biggest sale ever, 25% off. So get in on that. And starting in December, we're going to have the cinnamon roll cookie, which I think it's between that and the Boston cream pie cookie now that are our best sellers of all time. And then speaking of Oreo, we're going to have a peppermint Oreo type of cookie. Oh, gosh.
Starting point is 01:58:49 And a polar bear, which is a peanut butter caramel cookie. Real? That's an interesting cow. I've got to try that one, too. Yeah. All right. Techse.com, K-E-K-S-I.
Starting point is 01:58:57 I'm going to spend my entire salary on Kexi cookies this holiday season. I think that's a really good option for you. Yeah. Okay. AAA 727 B-E-C-K, more Pat and Stufer Glenn. Coming up. Join the conversation. 888-727 back.

Starting point is 02:01:12 this is sort of a visual clip that we're about to play for you, but it was another one from Biden yesterday. I mean, oh, he was so agonizing. Well, he's agonizing every day. But he was just at a lot of events that were recorded. It's a good point. That's really the difference here. Yeah, it is.
Starting point is 02:01:32 And so he is at this campaign stop and seems to notice a little girl, as he so often does. and rather than sniff her hair, he comments on her ears, which is weird, yes. But watch the expression, Jill's in the background, watch the expression on her face, and watch her turn to the Secret Service like, you've got to stop this guy. Don't let him go up to that girl. Or maybe it's just me. Look at this.
Starting point is 02:02:01 Thank you. And I love your ears. I love them. They're really cool. What's your name? Now she looks over at the Secret Service guy. Beautiful name. Hello.
Starting point is 02:02:10 That's my mommy's name. Does somebody do something here? How old are you, 17? Six. And that's another weird thing he does. It's the overstate the age of the kids. Yeah. It's, he thinks it's funny.
Starting point is 02:02:23 It's almost wishful. I hate to say it, but it just sounds like it sometimes. It's almost wishful. It almost seems like, he's like, ah, hopefully she's above it. Oh, she's not. If you were just 17, I'd start to date you right now. He says that, he actually says that real thing, right?
Starting point is 02:02:37 I think said something very similar, yeah. I don't know if it was 17. But he said, if you were older. If you were 13, we could talk. But since you're six, I'll leave you alone. Well, he doesn't message you on TikTok instead. Well, creepy. He is so creepy.
Starting point is 02:02:56 So her reaction there, yeah, she does look over at the Secret Service agent. Like, yeah, are you going to do anything? Yeah, watch this again. Because it does seem that she's trying to send a signal to the Secret Service guy. And I love your ears. I love it. They're really cool. What's your name? She looks over now.
Starting point is 02:03:13 You're going to do something? Yeah, yeah, you're right. I think that is what is happening. I mean, any normal human being, you can turn this off. Any normal human being would say, hear the phrase, I want to look at your ears and just think immediately it should be stopped. Whatever's happening should be stopped. Unless it was an ear doctor. Okay.
Starting point is 02:03:33 I want to look inside your ears. Okay. That makes sense. Yeah. But he's not. The Glenn Beck program.
