My Patriot supply is here, and I strongly, strongly suggest you don't say, whatever, when you're looking at the events of the world.
What are you actually doing to prepare?
Stu and I had this conversation yesterday off air because you have to start thinking this way.
It's coming.
I don't know what it is.
Don't know when it is.
But it's going to be difficult and things are going to change.
I'd rather not look for a zoo where I can get the meat so I can.

Mypatriotsupply.com. All right, we begin in a minute.
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Back program.
Hello America.
It's Friday.
So we start in 60 seconds.
If pain has gotten aggressive with you,
you get up in the morning,
you feel like dog crap
and feel life is kicking you to the curb.
It only gets worse as the day goes on.
I know because I've lived in that kind of pain.
Please, if you've tried everything else,
Would you just please try this for three weeks?
It's 1995.
If it doesn't work, yep, there's another box you've checked.
That doesn't work.
But for 70% of the people, they go on to order more month after month, and they tell you,
you'll know within three weeks.
If it's not really working for you in three weeks, it's not going to work most likely.
So try it.
Three week, 1995 Relief Factor.
Get your life back.
Get out of pain.
$8004 relief.
8004 relief.
Relieffactor.
dot com.
Well, hello, Stu.
How you doing, Glenn?
Oh, my gosh, I'm good.
Yes.
You've got a big vacation coming up.
You're on the verge of it.
You've got to be excited about that.
I've got like 800,000 things I have to do before vacation.
Right.
Yeah.
That's how this works.
I know.
And then you spend most of your vacation doing those things.
So it's not a vacation at all.
Well, it's going to be because we're going to Afghanistan.
I hear it is.
beautiful this time of you. I know you have a time share in the Sudan, but you're going to
Afghanistan this time. Yeah, it's going to be very, very nice. All right. Where should we start?
I want to leave you here for the next couple of weeks, and I want to arm you with something that I
think is really, really good. Stu and I have been starting to say it. It's going to be interesting
to see how that works out. Whenever you have a problem in front of you, if you say that, it kind of makes it
okay. Yeah, it does. Because you
don't take ownership of that problem.
You know, hey, Donald
Trump and
and
Ron DeSantis are yelling at each other and
calling each other names and it's really not good.
I wonder how that's going to work out. It's going to be interesting to watch.
Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. Oh, look, we're in primary
season. So everybody hates each other again on our side.
It's going to be interesting. It sure is. It's going to be an interesting.
18 months, you know? It sure
is. So you
So I want to add on to that because I had Spencer Claven.
He is doing our podcast that is out on the blaze now and going to be out for all the podcast users in what Saturday, on Saturday tomorrow.
And we had this conversation yesterday and it was great.
And he said kind of the same thing.
I said, how do you talk to people who are just unreasonable?
You know, look at, let me take you here.
Let me show you the horror on the streets of Philadelphia.
Cut five.
Now, I lived in Philadelphia.
It was always not the best.
But this is less suboptimal?
Less suboptimal.
I mean, these people are zombies.
They are just all drugged out, laying in the,
streets or stooped over all in Philadelphia.
Now let me show you something else. This is in Oakland.
This is people coming and speaking. This happened this week in Oakland, California.
Not exactly a red part of California.
It's not Maga land. No, it's not Maga territory.
So these are the Oakland residents that are coming to Oakland to, to
demand a change from the city. Listen to this.
I'm the owner of Studio Naga.
I'm Lewis, owner of Studio Naga.
I email you in your office every week.
I email homeless. I email macro.
I email everyone.
And you know the situation.
I have a person who is mentally deranged this living 10 feet from the door by business
who has threatened me multiple times,
who has threatened other people who defecates on our property,
on our business.
And I'm being told by macro that they can't do anything.
I'm being told by the police that there's got to be something in the middle.
Because as women have said, I don't want to have to get threatened with sexual violence when I go to work.
I don't want my children to see this as a normal behavior from an individual on the street that they get.
He's been naked, he's masturbated in front of them, he's urinated in front of them.
And there's nothing I'm told the police can do.
So your policy of not enforcing some of this 150 feet from a school, 50 feet from a residence or business, that policy has a direct effect.
Okay.
Now listen to that.
Can you imagine that?
Can you imagine that?
Why are you paying taxes?
What am I paying taxes for?
Okay.
Listen to this.
Crime change cut to number seven.
I understand it comes to a place of hurt, generally when people are being violent.
On some level, in some form, it's coming from a place of hurt.
Sure.
But if they're doing hundreds of gunpoint robberies,
mostly to women, to people of all races, where I have lived in poverty my whole life,
it makes it hard for us to keep jobs, to find jobs, to live life,
to fight through mental health issues, to fight through our poverty,
as not just one demographic of women
is all kinds of women being targeted.
This is systemic violence as well.
Yeah.
So here's what I want to leave you with.
When you start to have conversations,
because all of the data points are there,
before when they were like,
we're going to reimagine a police,
we're like, that's not going to work.
That's the dumbest idea I've ever heard.
Okay. Then that obviously, you know, wasn't necessarily the best thing to say, but that's what was out of our mouths. I know it was my mouth at the time. Are you out of your mind? Now all the data points are there. You show things like this and say, so let's talk about defunding the police and saying that the homeless, you know, can live anywhere they want and all of this. How does that?
that working out for you just ask them that how's that working out can we just can we just look at
the facts how's the city doing how's crime how's crime compared from a red city to a blue city
is there anything we can learn from this how's it working out and just be kind about it but
it's time we just start talking about facts.
This is empirical evidence.
This is how science is done.
I don't follow scientists because I know scientists can be wrong.
I follow actual science.
And that is, I have a theory.
I'm going to now test it out.
And I'm going to look at the facts.
So when they say, you just don't even know, you're a racist.
No, I'm following science.
Here's how it works.
you propose a theory.
I think police are making our cities racist and we would be safer in the minority communities
if there weren't any police.
Okay.
You said defund because you want to reimagine.
Now, we've done that in several cities.
So let's look at those cities because if it was working and it was better,
I'd be with you. I'd change my mind. I don't want to be right. I want to live in a great country
that treats everybody fairly, that looks at everyone equally, looks at people who are sick and says
they're sick. How can we help them? I don't want to live in crime and neither do you. So how's that
working out.
That's science.
We did a show on
and Stu Does America called
Stu does the collapse of the American
City a couple weeks ago
and highlighted a place called
Old Station subs in Phoenix.
Listen to this.
This is their every day.
Every day.
69 year old owner
who wants to open to a sub shop
that's been around for a while.
This is his current situation.
There are hundreds of people
sleeping within a few blocks of old station.
Most of them suffering for mental illness
or substance abuse as they lived out
lived out their private lives with public view of the restaurant. They slept on Joe and Debbie's
outdoor tables, defecated on their back porch, smoked methamphetamine in their parking lot,
washed clothes in their bathroom sink, pilfered bread and gallons of gallon jars of pickles
from their delivery trucks, had sex on their patio, masturbated within view of their employees,
and lit fires for warmth that burned down palm trees and scared away customers. Within a half mile
of the restaurant, the police have been called to an average of eight incidents a day in 2020.
There were at least 1,097 calls for emergency medical help, 573 fights or assaults, 236 incidents of trespassing,
185 fires, 140 thefts, 125 armed robberies, 13 sexual assaults, and four homicides.
The remains of a 20 to 24 week old fetus, 20 to 24 week old fetus were burned and left next to a dumpster in November.
Two people were stabbed to death in their tents.
Sixteen others were found dead from overdoses, suicides, hypothermia, or excessive heat.
A group of young men in the encampment had begun selling off pieces of the public sidewalk,
charging each person $20 a week for what they called lot rent and security.
That had seemed ridiculous to an encampment resident until he decided not to pay
and then awoke one night to the smell of someone dousing his tent with lighter fuel.
Then there was Keisha, barely out of her team.
who had skittered around the encampment like a scared cat, wary of everyone, carrying a few old dolls and crying sometimes.
Joel had tried to watch out for her, offering her water for a few minutes inside whenever she was upset.
But one weekend when he wasn't around, the temperature was 115 degrees.
She laid down on the curb near his gallery and died of heat exposure.
Story after story after story of this.
And this goes back to one of these court rulings where the...
They said, of course it's okay to camp outside.
That's okay.
Of course it is.
So this is completely devastated.
And this is the story of one sandwich shop.
But this is repeating itself all over the country.
So, you know, here's the thing.
We have to understand that America is not all John Phillips Souza, marching bands, perfect military and white picket offenses.
Okay, we have to just understand that.
I never thought it was.
I thought we were better than we are now.
But I never thought it was.
We've done some really bad things.
I'm willing to admit that.
I know at this point you are too, because we've gone through this together.
We actually did soul searching.
I think the vast majority of Americans have changed.
The vast majority of Americans on both sides have changed.
Now, we've changed because we've done soul searching and we've went, yeah, geez, we really screwed things up.
Boy, you know what?
The liberals were right about the companies becoming the state.
I didn't think that 20 years ago.
And they were right about the FBI and the spy apparatus in this country.
They were right.
Okay. All right. Now, why do I say that? Not because I'm forced to, but because I'm watching the evidence. Nobody convinced me of that. The evidence is overwhelming. Now, while that evidence is coming out and changing hardcore Republicans, hardcore conservatives, really pro-police, pro-military, all of the things that they've always hated.
As we're changing because we see the facts, they're changing in spite of the facts and embracing the things they rejected.
This is not logical.
It's just not logical.
And it won't endure.
And the further we get down this path, I really am beginning to understand the gods of the copybook headings with terror and slaughter return is the last line.
of that Rudyard Kipling poem.
And I'm beginning to really understand it.
It doesn't just mean war.
It doesn't mean that, you know, you're going to have somebody come in and just write everything.
We're experiencing the terror and slaughter right now.
We're experiencing it.
How many people in this country now are living in fear that weren't living in fear?
Ten years ago.
How many people who own a business in a town?
live in fear of what the police won't or will do, of what's happening outside of their streets.
Anybody who says their compassion, compassionate, and they heard what Stu just read that's happening in Arizona,
how do you claim compassion here?
How is this compassionate?
You are not helping the lowest.
you're enriching the rich right now.
You're not even, you're not helping the millionaires.
You're helping the billionaires.
You're empowering them.
You're destroying so many lives that are living on the streets that are in the worst shape.
And how are you doing that?
By disregarding every known,
principle.
There's a difference between facts.
Facts can change.
Principles don't change.
There's something that man has found to be true over thousands of years.
Back in just a minute with more.
Every day, more and more people are discovering the wonders of putting relief factor.
I'm sorry, putting rough greens on their dog's food.
I can tell you, I seen what it is done to my dog, Uno.
Used to be when you fed him, you had to stay there while he ate.
You couldn't move.
literally could not move.
It was like, I'm a statue, I'm a statue.
Don't walk in, don't walk in, he'll stop.
And if he didn't want to eat, you would have to actually feed him in his end or he wouldn't
eat.
And the vet was always yelling at us going, you've got to feed him more.
And we're like, he won't eat.
That was the first thing that got me, I mean, married to Rough Greens.
He eats.
He loves it.
Now, it's not a dog food.
it's just a supplement.
I don't know what it is, like sugar or something.
I mean, except it's good for them.
It makes it taste good to them.

10 seconds, station ID.
Wow.
Let's, did you see the president fall after his Air Force speech yesterday?
I did, yes.
I was going to say, when you said, did you see the president fall?
You needed to get more specific.
Yeah, the Air Force thing.
But yes, that the Air Force thing yesterday.
I mean, it's just, it's so bad.
It is so bad.
It's so bad.
And, like, honestly, like, we say this stuff all the time.
We feel bad for him.
And it's embarrassing for the country.
Oh, my gosh.
You look weak on the world stage.
Really weak.
We can't even stand on the world stage anymore.
Literally.
Literally.
Listen to this. Listen to this.
Cut 10. This is Biden in the Air Force speech yesterday before he fell.
The only nation built on an idea that we hold these truths to be self-evident.
But all women and men are created equal.
Endowed by the crater of a certain inalienable rights.
Life, liberty, pursuit.
That's the organizing principle of America.
Okay. First of all, that's not what it says.
It's life liberty and pursuit.
And we've always talked about we get to just run after things.
We're just pursuing.
We're in pursuit.
We're in hot pursuit.
I'm nothing specific.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, it's really bad.
He does that every time on that line.
He's like, in pursuit of, you know it.
You know it.
I mean, yeah, because you apparently don't.
Yeah, because he has done that several times.
And he look at this and part of me was watching that yesterday and saying like,
even if you think he's somehow mentally able to do this job, right?
Even if you think he's, I don't think he is.
But like, I guess you're convincing yourself of that.
If you're a Democrat and attending,
I'm voting for the guy.
Like, what they're doing, just having him do normal political events is putting him in serious danger.
Like, when you're 81 years old and you fall like that and he may be able to make it through this one.
You could break a hip and you die.
You could break a hip, you could die.
There are all sorts of things that could happen here.
And they keep trotting him out there to try to lie to us and make us believe that he is physically capable of doing this.
These basic things that most people are just able to do.
He is not able to do.
And when you get to that point, you've had elderly relatives, Glenn.
You would never put them out, you know, shaking hands down a line every day.
No way.
And walking long distances in front of cameras.
No way.
And putting him on stage where he might trip.
My dad does that on stage.
My dad falls on stage like that.
It's a last speech you make.
It is.
I'm like, Dad, don't do this anymore.
You can't do this anymore.
Okay?
I'm sorry, but you're not 40.
You know, if speech was fine, it wasn't, but the speech was fine, whatever.
Right.
But you can't be walking all over and doing all of these things.
Let mom come out and take your arm.
Yeah.
And they, of course, won't do that because they care more about politics and power than this guy's life and his health.
It's really sad.
It really is sad.
I mean, if I need to bring up an example of that, let's go to Diane Feinstein, who is mesmerized by the fact that Kamala Harris would show up at the Senate, which is something that is very basic.
a function of the Senate, but she was mesmerized by it.
She doesn't understand what she's voting for.
She doesn't know where she is.
Why is she here?
Because she's the vice president.
She sits there.
She's technically the head of the Senate.
Well, what do you mean?
What is she?
I mean, it's disgraceful.
And it's disgraceful.
I mean, look at look at the carnage here.
Look at the carnage.
From all the way from, you know, being for, you know, euthanasia,
abortion, the way they're treating Feinstein,
doesn't matter. She doesn't matter.
The Trump, I mean, Biden, he doesn't matter.
The guy from Philadelphia, I mean,
the senator from Pennsylvania, Federman, yeah.
Federman, he doesn't matter.
They're just, they destroy people.
They just destroy people.
That's not who we are as a people.
Where is this?
We're more than, we are more than, we are more
than politics.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
I just moved that to Hour 3 because that's what we were discussing.
You don't listen.
No, we didn't listen.
We literally were discussing.
discussing that topic that you weren't listening to.
Because I was busy moving because you didn't listen to me.
This is the kind of...
I can't wait for you to go on vacation.
Well, can you please leave early?
Yes, please.
Oh my gosh.
Seriously.
You know where you should go?
Where?
You know, Russia is a great way.
How about Ukraine?
That would be good.
This time of year?
It's beautiful.
You know, I might go to Ukraine for...
I'm just saying, I'm not saying I am, but I'm not saying it either.
You know what?
Go.
Yeah.
Go.
See, why do you should go?
You should stay there. You should stay there. You know what? There's a thing, there's a beautiful area of Ukraine called the front lines. Just ask people where to go. And then you're right. Is that a restaurant? Oh, wow. The front lines. I'll write that down.
Things are delivered to you there, right? Oh, yeah. Big things. The meals are large. Rapidly, too. Yeah. Rapidly. And you know, everything always comes in hot. There's never like a cold. By the way, somebody that's just ordering up some more delicious dishes, you know, at the front line is Lindsay.
Graham, cut four, please.
We're going to cap spending
at a level that we cannot expand the Navy.
And in the same period
of time, China's going to
go from 310 ships
over a 10-year period to 440.
Less money for the Marines, less
money for the Army, less ships
for the Navy, at a time of great
conflict. Not a penny
in this bill to help Ukraine
defeat Putin. Oh, do that.
They're going on the offensive as I speak.
Oh, wow. And we need to send a clear message
to Putin that when it comes to your invasion of Ukraine, we're going to support the Ukrainians
to ensure your loss.
Yeah.
If we don't do that, then we're going to snatch.
Mass hysteria, cats and dogs living together.
Out of the jaws of victory.
Yeah, that's amazing.
That's amazing.
That's incredible.
I'm so sick of these.
You know what?
I think the three of us are pretty hawkish, pretty hawkish.
Yeah.
You know, generally speaking.
Yeah.
Been in the past.
No.
No, you've spent out of control.
No, not another dime.
Sorry.
I know.
Why do you love Vladimir Putin?
Why are you in favor of Russia?
What are you a communist?
Is that what you are?
I mean, that's what you're accused of.
If you don't fully support this war for Ukraine.
And the conversation is not another dime going to the military.
They increased spending in this bill to the military.
No, no, no.
I know.
I'm not saying we crush our military.
No.
I'm saying, you know what?
We should be taking care of our military over Ukraine's military.
Yes.
We should be taking care of business here.
Before you do anything else, more infrastructure, more school loans being forgiven, whatever,
pay for the things that actually keep the lights on.
That would be nice.
And we should point out that we went through the last couple of weeks talking about this dumb debt ceiling bill.
Talk to people like Chip Roy and Mike Lee, even Tom.
Thomas Massey about what was going in to this bill. And there was a Republican revolt at the last minute. And that revolt was about the fact that according to Republicans, we weren't spending enough money. That was the opposition to the bill. We were not spending enough money.
No, that's, that's his opposition to the bill. No, not Mike Lee's. Obviously, we talked to Mike Lee on the air.
In case people maybe missed that, it's good to note that that was not his. But the organized revolt against this.
yesterday was from people like Lindsay Graham and Roger Wicker, who by the way is coming up for
a primary potential here coming soon. We should remember that. That we did not spend enough.
That was the line. We didn't spend enough. That's not the Democrats complain over the bill.
It's our complaint over the bill if you think of yourself as a Republican.
And maybe I'm alone in this. But sometimes I get a little frustrated because I think my kids are
ungrateful.
Really?
Yeah.
No parents
ever since that before.
Yeah.
I think it's just
probably me.
But they're a little
ungrateful.
And,
you know,
we're,
you know,
let's say you go out
and you do something
and they say,
what do you mean?
Why are,
what do you mean?
Why aren't we doing this?
Because it's expensive.
And?
You're like,
oh, you're going to find out
what that and is
really soon.
I feel like we are the parents with these ingrates in Washington,
and we've just let them spend and spend and spend,
and we've raised these snotty, ungrateful children
that just think money grows on trees.
I'm tired of having the same conversation in my home
and then have to turn around and tell it to our leadership in the country.
These things cost money.
Where do you think you're getting that money?
Well, we just get more money.
Money. Yeah, thank you, Mr. 13-year-old. It doesn't work that way. Mommy and daddy have to work to pay those bills. It's just, there's no concept of that in Congress. None. None. No concept whatsoever. They consider it their money. And that's why the Democrats, like Biden, treat tax cuts as if it's a cut in their income.
and it's an expenditure actually.
Yes.
They think that tax cuts are spending.
Because to them it is.
Because our money is theirs.
We've already sent it.
They've already sent it.
We're already getting it.
We planned on it forever.
Well, we planned on Social Security.
How's that?
Yeah.
How's that?
Mm-hmm.
You know, I mean, it is the, you know, the inmates are running the asylum.
And, you know, I'm just, I'm just, I'm,
glad that there were 70 people that stood up in the house.
Yeah.
Surprising.
I have not seen that.
I don't even know if we saw that kind of stuff during the Tea Party.
Did we?
Sometimes, yeah.
Let's be clear, though.
Many of those may have done it because they knew the bill was going to pass anyway.
And so they were allowed to vote no because they needed to for their constituents.
What needs to happen again for the millionth time is that all of those representatives,
need to govern from their own home district.
Amen.
Where they're surrounded by their constituents every single day.
And they hear from them every day.
We have been saying this since 2001.
Yeah.
Everybody, how do we protect the Capitol?
How do we protect Congress?
It's easy.
Break it up.
Yes.
But everybody, we have the technology.
Make them legislate from home.
Yep.
Put them in their own office.
They have to stay at home.
Maybe they get together for a cocktail party once every year.
You know, I was going to say once every five years.
Oh, darn.
Okay.
Anyway, maybe they get together for, you know, the State of the Union.
But no, because the people don't get to, if you will, lobby their own representative.
Because they don't have the lobbyist living in Washington with a big, huge, fancy building
that takes these guys out to dinner all the time.
Yeah.
I want them in our own communities.
I think it's a single best thing we could do to fix this country.
It is.
And we have, there's no reason.
You know, the reason why they picked,
the reason why they picked Washington was because it's a swamp.
Malaria, there were mosquitoes everywhere.
Nobody wanted to live there.
Okay, it was a swamp.
That's why our founders picked it.
Because nobody would want to go back.
Yeah.
Can I toss another one, another reform out there?
Sure.
Take your temperature on this.
Have you followed the debate on potentially massively expanding the House?
I think this is pretty interesting because the founders...
We've stopped.
We've stopped adjusting, right?
We stopped adjusting for population, right?
So back in 1790, we averaged one representative for every 33,000 people.
Oh, wow.
Currently, we're one representative at about 750,000 people.
I thought it was 600,000.
Yes, between, you know, it was 700,000 to 2018.
It's a little higher than that now.
Soon now.
Right.
And so we really have lost that connection from representative to people.
33,000 is, I mean, it's still a large number, of course, but it's a manageable.
You know what your voters really believe.
They would be in your, on your street.
Yeah.
Election time, they would knock on your door.
33,000.
Yeah, like you would have a real relationship with these people.
And that was really the idea back in the day.
That's how it was supposed to work.
Now, we've let this thing expand.
And I don't know that you're going to get, I mean, you'd have to, you know, you'd go.
The increase would be really, really significant if we went back to 33,000.
But even if we, you know, doubled it or quadrupled the amount of people, you know, having 400 or 1,600 people in the house, not much of a difference as far as, you know, cost.
I mean, you'd have to, there'd be some logistical concerns there.
You'd have to solve.
But it would make people.
and going back to their districts would solve it completely.
But, you know, having this where you'd have people actually accountable to a manageable number of voters and constituents, I think would make a big difference and it would be a lot harder to lobby them.
I mean, the more people you have there, the harder it is to lobby, these people don't carry nearly as much power.
I think it's an interesting thing.
Yeah, I think I'm, you know, just based on what knowledge I have based on what you just said, I think I'm for that.
And you don't have to spend any extra money because they're going to be operating in their office.
Yeah.
Well, if you did that, yes.
If you did that, though, you wouldn't need necessarily to expand the number of them.
And you know, another change I want to make.
I just want to go back.
What you're suggesting is we go back to the Constitution, right?
So another thing I'd like to do is go back and put the Supreme Court back into the place that was built for them.
the basement of the Capitol.
Okay? I'm serious. I'm serious. The Supreme Court was just an afterthought. When they were designing the Capitol,
they didn't put chambers in because it was like, yeah, well, they're not that important.
They are the least powerful of the three branches, okay? The least powerful. That's the way they're
supposed to be. But Congress, which is supposed to be the most powerful, has made
the judicial branch
the most powerful and who's
responsible for that
that's FDR
he built them this palace
they moved out of the basement
they should go back to the basement
all they are is just a bunch of clerks
that are supposed to be going
yeah actually you can't do that
yeah you're going to have to reword this
get hey guys let me pound on the ceiling
with a broom
guys you want to do this you have to
change it this way
that's what they're supposed to be.
We've just distorted this whole system.
Yeah, it's true.
The power, I mean, the imbalance is serious.
This is what the Raines Act was about as well.
When you're talking about, you know,
taking a power away from these unelected bureaucrats and these agencies
and giving it back to Congress.
Like, Congress seems to not want this power because they don't want to deal with voters.
They want to be able to say that they had nothing to do with it.
And instead of, that was the one thing, I guess, if you can,
criticize the founders on anything is they always assumed people would want to keep their power.
And so there was a constant competition between these.
But that is the problem, though, also with the Supreme Court.
They want their power, which makes people like John Roberts do things he knows isn't right.
It's why they are protesting in front of the, in front of the justice's house, blatantly illegal,
then threatening to kill them because they want them to acquiesce.
Everybody wants to be liked.
Everybody wants to be liked.
And nobody wants to be condemned by half the country.
So that's what they're hearing.
And we're not really doing anything.
There's a theory going around that the reason why Roe versus Wade was overturned is because for the very first time, they understood the right has had enough.
They've had enough.
And they stood up.
So now, what are we going to do?
What are we going to do?
Before, they were only afraid of one side.
Now they knew we're serious.
We're serious.
And that's the only reason.
That's one theory from a pretty credible source that that's what happened.
You just have to stand up and say, no, we're going to rule the law here.
We're going to live the law, period, not some popularity contest.
All right, back in a minute.
Thank you, Pat.
You're in next week, right?
Yeah, looking forward to it.
I won't be listening.
Pat and Stu doing the show.
We've got it next week.
Pat's got some solo days.
I think there's Steve Days for a day.
Some really good fill-ins for you.
We can never live up to your high standards or whatever.
We're calling them these days, but it will be a lot of fun.
That's absolutely right.
All right.

By the way, I was reading, I went through some old mail,
and I was reading the old letters between.
me and Don Imus.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
And he told me, oh, I will sue you from the grave if you ever print those.
And I'm so bummed because I asked him.
I said, please, let me make a book of our correspondence because it is so funny and so
mean.
Funny.
My gosh, we were brutal to each other.
Anyway, real estate agents I trust.
I'm a small business owner.
And one of the things I do like about owning a business is when we can actually do something
that helps people.
is the way capitalism is in its best. When a real capitalist shows up, he's not trying to say,
how can I get rich? He's saying, what is it that people need that I can make their lives easier?
Because then they'll beat a path to your door. Well, one of those things was how do you pick a
real estate agent? I've always had a problem with this. And I started working with the 500 best
real estate agents and I was voicing work for them. And I got to know them. And I got to know them.
And these 500 best, this according to the Wall Street Journal at least, and I started to get to know them and I realized there are best practices.
So I know what to ask for.
I know what to look for now with an agent.
So we put a company together and all we do is recommend agents to you.
And we put these people through the ringer.
They don't work for me.
We're just recommending.
It doesn't cost you anything.

We'll steer you in the right direction.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
When I heard Glenn talk about American Giant,
I wanted to see for myself if the clothing was really that good.
And it's true.
He's completely right on this.
Everything I've worn is so well made.
My wife had the same sort of thing when I started talking about it.
You got some of the stuff.
She did.
She got some of their leggings.
And just like this material is like material I've never fell before.
It's because we just haven't, we're not used to good hold America.
manufacturing anymore.
13 years ago, American Giant rescued a clothing factory in North Carolina that was going to
shut down.
They wanted to show that Americans could still manufacture clothing and make it better than the
cheap stuff that comes from overseas.
Back in the 1960s, 95% of clothing Americans bought was made right here in America.
Now, it's the exact opposite.
It's like 97% made overseas.
American Giant is changing that one piece of clothing at a time.
A fantastic hoodie.
I was just wearing a T-shirt from American Giant yesterday.
I was just like, gosh, you just noticed the difference.
even in a t-shirt.
Yeah, I know.
It really is amazing.
It really is amazing.
They do a great job.
And if you have a dad, you had a Father's Day situation coming up here, what a great place
to go to American Giant.
You're helping the country and you're going to give your dad something they're really going
to like.
For Father's Day, let your dad know he's an American Giant.
It's clothing that will last so long.

com slash glen welcome to the glenbeck program i am so excited to have our next guy i waited for weeks for her
um her name is mary harrington and i found her a few weeks ago she's from england uh and i mean i'm just
going to quote her this is this is going to be a fascinating conversation she wrote and i quote
15 years ago, I was living in a queer commune and calling myself Sebastian.
I spent hours on message boards angrily defending queer theory belief that gender is a performance.
Now you are canceled for being honest about sex.
She now says she's against progress.
She's no longer Sebastian.
Her name is Mary, and she is dirt, strong, very well-thought-out individual.
I can't wait to hear about the journey, and I've heard some of her views on what to do,
and I think you're going to love our two of the podcast.
The Glenn Beck Program.
I want to talk to you about American.
Giant.
Stu is just talking about American Giant a minute ago.
And he was talking about my pillow.
We got off the air and he was like, you know, I'm wearing those slippers.
What you're saying about is true.
Yeah.
Every once in a while, I realized that you say things that are actually true.
American Giant is a huge one.
Same thing.
I had never had one of their hoodies before.
And you're like, you got to get one of these hoodies.
They're incredible.
And I like hoodies.
No, I know you.
And nothing like that.
Nothing like this one.
This is the way, those were the hoodies and the sweat.
Have you had, do you have their sweatshirts yet?
Uh, no.
They are the sweatshirts that I grew up.
They were just, like, that's the way champion used to be.
Champion sweatshirts suck now if you remember the real ones.
Right, right, right.
They sold all those machines.
They were in Japan and all of the skill to make them gone.
It's American giant that brought those machines back and then fix them, got them running for modern era,
and then trained people in the factory.
And it's really the way we made them in the 1960s when they were unstoppable.
You notice the difference.
Yeah.
In a big way.

Hello, America.
Welcome to the program.
It is Friday.
I found this woman giving a talk.
on, I don't know, YouTube or something, about a month ago,
and I'm so excited to have her on.
I think she's brilliant.
You are going to love her.
And I think, at least what I like,
I like people who have changed.
Tell me your story on how you changed
and how you came to what you believe.
That's why I think we all need to talk to each other,
even if we disagree with each other,
because I'm going to learn something from you on how did you get there?
wait to hear this woman's story.
So, this is so fantastic.
She wrote, and I quote,
15 years ago, I was living in a queer commune,
and calling myself Sebastian.
I spent hours on message boards angrily defending the queer theory belief that gender is a performance.
She didn't believe any of those things now.
In fact, she says she's against progress.
Her feminism is not the feminism that you're seeing.
Now, in fact, she actually believes the pill was the first step to transhumanism.
You're going to love Mary.

The contributing editor for Unheard, she is the author of Feminism Against Progress.
She used to be known as Sebastian.
Her name is Mary Harrington.
Welcome, Mary. How are you?
I'm very well, thank you. How are you?
I am good.
I don't even remember where you were speaking, but I saw a clip of you online, and you're very clear and clarified.
And you have a lot of fans in my producing staff as well.
So thank you for coming on.
It's a pleasure to be here.
So I started with what you said 15 years ago.
I was living in a queer commune, calling myself Sebastian.
been hours on the message boards angrily defending the queer theory belief that gender is a
performance. Now, you are being cancelled for being honest about the differences between
male and female. Why are you no longer Sebastian? What happened? Well, as it, it was kind of a,
thought experiment changing my name to Sebastian. I wanted to see what it would be like. And it
turned out that I just didn't really like it very much. I didn't like, it felt, it felt like I, it felt too
big of an ask in the end to say to my friends, to say to my family more than anything that I
knew this name that you've known me by and this person who you always thought I was, that's
not who I am anymore and I want you to call me something different. That just felt like I didn't
have the right to ask that. And it honestly just made me uncomfortable. I know that's, there are,
there are people who don't take that. There are great many more people who don't take that view
now. But that was, that was just where I got to with it. And also, I just didn't really want to be
dude you know I kind of I wasn't really sure I wasn't really sure that I wanted to be a woman at the
time because it seemed that seemed to come with a whole lot of downsides but as it I was kind of an
it was an experiment to see what it felt like and then in the end I I backtracked I walked back
Sebastian fairly quickly and went by Sebastian Mary for a while which I still kind of like I mean
Sebastian Mary have a nice feel to it yeah sure and you know I wore my hair short and I
I wore, you know, whatever clothes I wore, and I was kind of a, I was experimental about everything
when I was 20-20-something.
I so many people are, I guess.
But in the end, I fell off the wagon.
I just, I just realized it wasn't, it just wasn't making me happy.
And, you know, I don't think I figured that out.
It wasn't like, I work up one day and was like, actually, this all sucks, and I'm
going to become a reactionary.
It didn't happen that quickly.
So, it was like, like, my whole life sort of fell apart in 2008, because the startup I was
I founded, came to pieces, and it was partly my fault.
And I ended up, I lost my whole circle of friends.
It's like, I don't know if you've ever had a business, fail underneath you,
but it's like getting divorced.
Oh, yeah.
No, it's really messes with your mind.
Yeah.
But it's the bet when you fail in whatever, it's the only time,
you eventually look back and say, that's when I really grew.
So if you could make it through it.
Absolutely. I mean, it was a world changing, just a properly life-changing moment for me,
because it really threw into relief a lot of the things which I,
a lot of the beliefs that I based what I was doing on.
And a lot of those beliefs really were,
I guess you would call them woke now,
although that wasn't what they were called then,
but I was pretty woke about everything.
And I really kind of followed through on all of it.
You know,
I just didn't really want,
I didn't really want any hierarchy or any boundaries
or any structure to anything really.
And inevitably, that meant I had a very anarchic,
unstructured, unboundary in life,
which is just not very nice,
especially as you get older.
And I began to realize I was lonely and I was, and, you know, I was getting older and I still,
I still had no money.
And I didn't really know where I was going to be living from one, one year to the next.
And it just wasn't very nice.
And it was, it was sheer luck, really, that, I mean, I remember my grandmother gave me some advice.
We were very close.
She was a wonderful, very wise woman, my grandmother.
And she's been a farmer and a doctor and she was pretty tough.
And when she looked at me one day when I went to visit her and she said, you know what, Mary,
I think you should grow your hair and get married.
And I was like, whoa, because at the time I wore my hair extremely short,
and I was living in queer communes and just really a very, very, very, very, very,
some distance from getting, growing my hair and getting married.
But I guess it must have stuck in my mind, because as it turned out, it was really good advice.
That's, so, so, wait, so, as it turns out, looking normal,
gives you a lot more freedom to be whoever you are.
And being married, actually, as it turns out, gave me a lot more freedom to be who I am.
So that is my discovery with religion when it is understood and put in its proper place.
That, you know, for me, there is my relationship with God.
And then there's my religion, which I choose, that has the framework that helps me be a better person.
And for me, the more structured system, the better for me, because I have.
have found now that freedom really can come from just playing by the rules.
It's a lot easier.
But some people would say that you're selling out to the system.
Well, I don't know.
I think it's just much more than it.
It's very difficult to be creative if you don't have any boundaries.
I mean, I'll give you a very recent example.
It's a very, very tiny example.
You know, there are a whole lot, there are lots of, there are lots of people, particularly
women who are afraid.
But if they have kids, they'll end up tied down and they won't be able to do anything self-expressive.
Right. So I only have one child because I started fairly late.
And my husband, I had to work. It's half-term, which is a week of school holidays at the moment here.
And at the beginning of the week, my husband took our daughter up to visit the in-laws.
I had to stay here and work. And I thought, oh, okay. So I'll get all of my work done in one day and then I'll do whatever the next day or I'll do a whole lot of other things.
And as it turned out, I did not get all of my work done in one day.
I did exactly the same amount of work, Glenn, as I would have done if I'd been working during school hours.
I just spent the rest of the time facking around.
As it turns out, as it turns out, the boundary, you know, although sometimes I think,
ah, I have to, I'm in the middle of something.
I don't want to have to put it down to go and collect my daughter and do one stuff.
But as it turns out, if I don't have that boundary, I don't get any more done.
And I'm just wandering around feeling bored and lonely.
And it really took me back to being 25 and having no constraints on my time and just not really getting a whole lot done.
And it made me realize that actually the constraints, which I, the beneficial, you know, healthy, life-giving, life-affirming and loving constraints that my family imposes on me.
They're not an obstacle to my creative work now.
They're the basic enabling condition.
And I can't do anything that I do without that.
So, Mary, we have, we have.
And I think you could generalize back to a face as well.
You know, you put those constraints on yourself and they allow you to flourish.
I think that's very true.
We have, we see things now, I think, as a choice.
And when my mom and dad got married in the 1950s, and my mom was, you know, in her 20s and early 20s.
And so when the 60s came around, she was too old for the burn your bra thing.
She was not of the hippie generation, but she also didn't want to be a part of the 1950s stay at home.
She was very creative, everything else.
And she ended up in suicide and massive drug abuse because people, doctors used to write prescriptions.
Oh, you're sad.
Okay, take this.
You'll be fine.
And I think that's the way we look at things.
It's either you are, you can do everything a man.
You're, you are a man if you want to be.
Or you're going to be taken Valium at home with the kids and you've got no life except this, you know,
slavery kind of housewife kind of life.
It's, those are both bogus, aren't they?
Uh-huh.
Well, I mean, I've, I've never met a stay-at-home mom who just spends all of
her time, like, vacuuming and making money.
You know, they...
Those women don't...
If they exist, I've never...
Maybe they exist.
I don't know, Glenn, but I've never met one.
You know, the stay-at-home moms who I know, they organize groups.
They hang out with one another.
You know, they get stuff done.
I mean, back in the 19th century,
bourgeois housewives are pretty much around the world.
I mean, there's an amazing history.
My great friend Erica Bakuyoki recently.
wrote a history of the of women's organizing in 19th century America and just how extensive and
how networks and how effective these women were at bringing about social change you know on a huge
range of huge range of important issues and a lot of them had you know they were issues of faith or
they were issues of temperance or they were issues of you know the looking looking after the
poor or the needy or whatever you know these are women who've got things done and the fact that
they weren't drawing a salary directly for doing it is neither here nor there you know
There are great many more ways to be a part of the larger social fabrics
than just kind of turning up in an office and drawing down a salary.
I think there's something very limited and very narrow-minded about thinking about it,
thinking about it is in that way.
And I think it's a tough, it's a tough time now,
especially for those women who really do want to be mothers,
because a lot of them end up having to work more than they would like to
because that flexibility just isn't there.
And I can think of a great many women who bite your arm off at the online,
opportunity to be a stay-at-home mom or even just to work a bit more safe.
And it's, yeah, and we've ended up with less choice in some other ways.
I think also just to not be looked down on.
I mean, I think one of the worst things that women say,
I'm just a housewife.
I'm just a mom.
What do you mean?
You're just a mom.
What does that mean?
And that's because we look down on it.
What did you say?
I'm a stay at her mom.
And every.
stay-at-home mom I've ever met, including me, will recognize the, that you go to a party and
somebody asks, so what do you do? And you say, well, I'm a mum. And you can see they're already
looking over your shoulder for somebody more interesting to talk to. It happens. Every stay-at-home
I've ever met will recognize that. But I'll tell you something else. You get it worse from liberals than you do
from conservatives. You're much more likely in a relatively conservative circle of people to
to have to have the work that you do acknowledged and respected and responded to in a respectful way,
then you are amongst progressive, no matter how much lip service they pay to liberalism and to
women having choice. In fact, what the reality is that in terms of that moral hierarchy,
the choice to be a mum is nowhere. When we come back, I need to take one minute break.
When we come back, Mary, I want you to talk about the feminism of care and the feminism of freedom,
what the difference is between and also cyborg feminism.
Coming up in just a second, her name is Mary Harrington.
The book that she has written is Feminism Against Progress.
And you can find her on her website,
Reactionary Feminist.com.
You know that I am a voracious history collector.
and I am trying to preserve our Western history, the things that we did both good and bad.
And it is really important.
When I did my family genealogy, I got back into just the 1800s.
And it changed my life because I realized I found my great-great-grandfather and my great-great-uncle had both served in the Union Army.
and one of them died in Andersonville prison.
And if you know anything about it, it's practically Auschwitz, the American Auschwitz.
One of them died in that camp, and the other one barely survived and was never the same.
And it makes a difference, to me at least, in my life.
I know that I came from strong people that could handle things.
I know that they were on the right side, at least that time, and it's meaningful.
I collect history for our country and preserve it for generations to come, but people dismiss their own history.
You are the historian for your family.
You've got to preserve all of the old videotapes, audio tapes, pictures, all the old pre-digital formats, you know, that you use.
to use to store memories on.
Those things are all going away.
Magnetic tape is really only supposed to last about 10 years.
Look at the old pictures.
They're already fading.
You've got to digitize them.
And that's where Legacy Box comes in.

So, Mary, first of all, let me ask you, feminism of care, feminism of freedom.
What is the difference?
And how does this history tie into what you call cyborg feminism?
So really the big story here that I'm trying to tell is how feminism ended up happening at all,
why it's not just about progress in some kind of abstract sense.
Like we used to be bad people and now we're good people.
That's not really a thing.
You know, I think some things get better, some things get worse, right?
Just depends on where you're standing and how you're looking at it.
But if you're not looking at, if you're not thinking feminism as evidence of us just getting better,
then why is it happening?
And so I kind of went down a rabbit hole trying to figure out, you know,
If I don't believe in progress,
as I don't.
Why did this happen at all?
And I came to realize that feminism happened.
You know, it had to happen.
And it was women's response to how family life changed with the Industrial Revolution.
And it was a good, it was right and proper that women did respond.
Because, well, one of the most important ways that the Industrial Revolution changed things for women
was that work left the home.
And when that happened, a whole, like, pretty important.
previously in the medieval era, men and women both worked.
I mean, this would have been true in pioneer households in the United States as well.
You know, it wasn't that women were just sat around filing their nails while the boys did everything.
You know, the women were pretty tough.
You know, it was hard physical work, and they might have done different work to men.
But they would have been processing raw materials.
They'd have been, you know, slaughtering poultry and making cheese or making fabric or making clothes for the family.
You know, women worked as hard as men.
I think in some ways harder.
I remember my grandmother what it took just to do the wash.
And that was with one of the first washing machines.
It was still tough.
Exactly.
Exactly.
It's a lot of incredibly hard work.
So men and women all worked, except in the very richest household.
But when the industrial, when industrialization happened, a whole lot of the first
worked, a lot of the work to be, the first to be industrialized was the work that
have previously been women's work. So textile making stops being something that you did while you
were talking to your sisters and your cousins with kids underfoot inside the home. And it became
something that happened in a big dangerous factory 12 miles away. And so, you know, you might still be
working in textile making, but you can't do that and look after your kids. And then you have the
question of what you're going to do with the kids. So there's a whole lot of questions, the whole lot of
problems, really, that this throws up for women that they've got to deal with. You know, if you're
breastfeeding, can you still work? And this still
This wasn't really a question before when work was something that happened inside the home.
And women responded to this in two, I mean, it varies a lot depending on where you are.
And in Europe, it's different to United States.
And it happens at different times, industrialization.
But broadly speaking, women responded in two characteristic ways.
Where it was affordable for them not to work, they chose to do so and to look after the kids instead
because women recognize that, you know, kids still need looking after them.
and among those mostly middle class women,
there was a huge amount of writing and organizing
that went into making sure people understood
that this was still mattered,
but it wasn't directly economically productive,
but this was still important.
This is more recently,
feminist historiographers have called this,
they tend to treat this as kind of patriarchal false consciousness,
if you like.
Hold on just a second.
Hey, hold on. We've got to take a quick break back in just a second with the reactionary feminist.
The Glenn Beck program.
You and I are getting older every single day.
One of the things that comes from getting older is aches and pains.
Joint start to wear down.
Normal exercise of everyday life began to catch up.
You don't bounce back just as fast.
And we also, all of us, a lot of it is because of the food we eat and the things we do.
But we have inflammation in our bodies.
And inflammation is the main.
cause of disease, the main cause of pain in our bodies.
Just went to the doctor recently and he was doing a blood test and he said, your inflammation
is like gone.
And I said, I'm big and relief factor because that's what it does.
And not only is my inflammation in my body gone, I also don't have pain.
I mean, I have, you know, usual stuff, but it's all like livable where before I couldn't
function with the pain and I tried relief factor.
think it would work for me. You may not think it works for you, but they just say, try it
for three weeks. If it's not working in three weeks, if you're taking it as directed, it's not
going to work for you. But 70% of the people go on to order more month after month. I'm one of them.

talking to Mary Harrington, who believes the feminism of freedom and the feminism of care are the twin poles of the women's movement from the mid to the late 18th century onward.
She says, feminism of freedom and the feminism of care started really kind of going to war with each other because women were rightly quite conflicted.
We need more freedom of movement.
This new world seems premised on the idea that everyone is a free individual.
and we can be our own self in the market.
That's what freedom is.
Why can't we have that?
Then, of course, you had the other side because we're women and we're mothers.
We have children.
You have a baby.
You have a six-year-old.
We know what it's like to be needed.
So women argued from that experience of motherhood, it's not so simple.
We need to have this recognized and taken into account.
She says the feminist of freedom won out over the feminism of care.
when contraception and abortion were legalized.
This is where we get the cyborg or transhumanism.
Mary joins us again.
Mary, can you take us through that part of this?
Sure.
I mean, my argument is essentially that feminism, as such, ended in the 1960s.
And that we should think of the sexual revolution, not of the sexual revolution, but the transhumanist revolution.
We are 50 years and more and counting into the transhumanist revolution.
And that what marches under the banner of feminism now is more,
we should think of it more as a kind of libertarianism of the body,
which is to say a belief that we should be free to do whatever we want with our bodies
and we should be constrained in no way by any aspect of our bodies,
including our sex, including whether we're born male or female.
That should not limit us in any way at all.
Yeah, I was just talking to a really brilliant,
guy yesterday, Spencer Claven, and he said,
trans people is really the beginning of the end,
because it's going, that's all transhumanism.
You control with technology.
You control what you are.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
And that began with the contraceptive pill.
Because if you think about it, the pill was the first medical technology that didn't
set out to six something that was broken.
Like if I've broken my wrist, then, oh, I go
see a doctor, the doctor gives me pain
meds and spince my arm, and I'm better
again. But that assumes, like,
but what the pill does is the
opposite of that, or at least it's very
different to that. The pill breaks something,
which is working just fine, which is
normal female fertility.
And it does so, in the
name of personal freedom.
It does so, it does so in order to grant women
the freedom to have sex without,
dealing with unexpected pregnancies or undesired pregnancies, I should say.
A pregnancy under those certain, you know, if you have sex, you should expect normally to get
pregnant.
And the pill, but the pill breaks that, and it does so in the name of freedom.
And there have been lots of benefits to that.
You know, it allowed a huge number of women to plan their lives in a way which
hasn't been easily possible before.
So lots of women went to college and got jobs.
I mean, I participated in public life in a way which was much more difficult previously.
but it also came with some unexpected costs.
My great friend Louise Perry has written a great deal about the downsides of the sexual revolution for women.
But one of the unexpected effects of the pill was that it didn't prevent unexpected pregnancies,
nearly as much as people thought it would.
Because although fewer pregnancies were happening relative to the number of people who were having sex,
there were so many more people having casual sex because they could.
the absolute number of unplanned pregnancies went up, and that created a pressure to legalize abortion.
And I mean, we've been talking about the feminism of freedom and the feminism of care.
And, you know, a bunch of women who wanted to say women's interests are about our relationships and our bodies and our children and our families.
And another bunch of freedom was saying, women's interests are about defending our right to do whatever we want to do,
just in the same terms as men.
So that's very crudely the two sides of that argument.
And it's very different, you know, wherever you stand on abortion, it's very hard to think of a clearer way of saying freedom matters more than care than to say my freedom is so important that I will defend it even at the cost of a potential human life.
So that results can totally reliance on my body.
Let me go to the trans argument that is being happen, is happening all over the world right now.
And I think we are ahead of you or behind you, I guess, because I think you guys are actually.
starting to come out of this already.
And, you know,
turfs are just a horrible thing.
However, it seems as though,
and I think this really is in large part due to you,
that the turfs are winning in Great Britain.
Is that true?
And what did you do to change the tide over there that America can do?
well it
I mean it depends
we've definitely
we've had some successes
that's definitely true
I'm a long way from declaring it
a victory
I think I'd be a little bit like
George Bush when he was standing there on that
on that shit thing
we won we won guys we can all go home
it's too early to say that we've won
and we really are just into the foothills
of something here
but if there's something that the
tasks did
I mean the British situation is very different
the American one anyway because
culturally we're just kind of, I think we're just
more pessimistic in Britain
about being who are being who you
want to be. You know, that's
pretty, that's pretty baked into the American way
of looking at things, because people should be able to be
who they want to be. Correct. And so I can
see, like, that, and that
plugs fairly obviously into, into what's
going on with the trans thing. Like, why shouldn't
these people be who they want to be, even if that means
imagining their bodies are meat Legos and they can
rearrange them as they want?
And I think, I think
Brits are just a little bit more pessimistic about that.
We're also better organized because we had Monsnet, which is a discussion forum for months.
And a lot of the very early organizing to push back against gender ideology began on Mumsnet
and has since spun out into campaigning institutions.
And I think if there have been concrete successes in Britain, it's been in realizing that actually
where the battle is fought is not in the media culture war, that stuff is noisy.
but it doesn't really do bring, it doesn't move the needle.
And actually what you need to do is build institutions
and you need to lean on the levers of power,
which are NGOs these days.
You know, most real power flows through NGOs
and happens prior to voting in the world as it is now.
And I think in as much, I mean, I don't track American politics super closely,
but, you know, where things cross my radar
that look as though they're moving the needle in a similar way,
it's, for example, the Mum's for Liberty movement on school choice.
which to me has some of the same character,
I mean, with American characteristics
and much more American style,
slightly different priorities.
But I see that as being, you know,
they're getting their members on school boards
and they're leaning on the actual levers of power.
They aren't just writing angry think pieces
and then looking surprised when nothing changes.
They're showing up and they're doing politics.
And as a result, you know, they're moving the needle.
And I guess that's how it has to work.
You know, if you're going to, if you want to affect change, you have to show up.
Are you?
And you have to show up where it matters.
We are seeing things, you know, gender mutilation on children and everything else.
And we are behind you on, you are having more success of stopping that over in Great Britain than we are.
But people are waking up.
But it is, it's absolute evil what is, what is happening right.
right now. Are you optimistic or pessimistic here on how this all works out? Are we in for a very
long battle or we lose? It's going to be a bumpy ride, I think. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
I think it's going to be a bit of both, to be honest. I think the first will win on pediatric
gender. I think where a friend of mine calls it genital lobotomies. I don't think, I think that will
stop because the negative side effects are so obvious and sooner or later there's just going to be
such a cascade of losses that it's going to and so many you know the number of the number of
brutalized adults who just who are brutalized angry young adults will just get so big that it will stop
but I think that if you if you view the gender movement as a kind of spearhead for a wider
transhumanist the the the onward march of biotech into our bodies I think I
If we imagine that if we claim victory just because they stop doing gender lobotomotomies on children,
then when we're not paying attention.
Yes.
Because the stuff, the stuff which is coming down the line is in vitro gametogenesis and three parents,
three parent embryos.
And, you know, there are experimental surgeries which splice people with bits of animal
and genetically engineering pigs so that they can grow human organs for the transplant industry.
And a whole bunch of other stuff, you know, it just gets more and more baroque and more and more disturbing.
And that's, yeah, and it's very easy to argue the conservative case against creating monsters,
but it's very much harder to argue the conservative case against creating supermen.
And I think that's an argument which we haven't even begun to have yet,
and people are already trying to do it.
Mary, thank you so much for everything.
Say hi to Sebastian if you ever see him.
It's been such a pleasure just talking to you.
Thank you for having me.
Thank you. Mary Harrington, the book that she wrote is feminism,
against progress.
Um,
and she is a contributing editor for the,
uh,
for unheard and you can follow her at reactionary feminists.com.
Uh,
she is absolutely right.
The last things that she was talking about and this is something I've been,
I've been saying for a long time,
more probably off the air than on the air.
There are conversations that we have to have right now.
Um,
we,
We are going to be facing some of the biggest questions man has ever.
You know, we've always said, you know, well, what is life?
Well, that's been more kind of academic, but it's not going to be academic very soon.
When you can transform people and make them into a cyborg, is that a good thing, a bad thing?
What should we be doing?
What? What does it mean to be organic?
These things, people don't have any idea.
That is why when she said the pill is the beginning of transhumanism, she's right.
She's right.
There are things that we should, we must be talking about right now because we're fighting almost a campfire.
with this trans stuff.
This is almost a campfire compared to what is coming in probably the next three to five years.
More in a minute.
Summer is here.
That means it is time to fire up the grill.
And when I throw a set of steaks or burgers on, I want them to be the best quality for my family.
And I don't mean just taste.
I want what comes from my table to come from an American farm or a ranch.
Call me old fashioned, but I don't want it in the ear.
Chinese mate.
Now, 85% of grass-fed beef is imported from overseas.
85%.
So when you see that little sticker product of USA, it doesn't mean that that cow grew up here.
And it just means it was finally sliced into steaks here.
Really?
That's it.
That's the loophole.
Good Ranchers donates 10 meals to Americans in need.
for every box that is ordered.
So when you order a box,
10 meals are going to people who can't afford it.
You're doing good.
You're going to lock in your price.
And believe me,
the price of meat is going to go up.
So lock in your price now at good ranchers.com.
You get $30 off of any box right now as well.
And it's all from America.

Okay, so Mitt Romney has just come out and said, you know, he's tired, sick and tired of
these extremists.
There are people who want to make noise, and then there are people who want to make law.
Really?
Is that what it is?
Because I'm not about making noise for the sake of noise.
it's about making noise out of sincere desire to highlight grave misunderstandings about a major defect in the law that you are making.
It doesn't do what you say it does.
So far right noise maker, you can say, I don't care.
I've been called much, much worse.
But that is just noise.
Calling me just a noise maker is just noise.
to disguise your disregard for the harms which you're subjecting all of us to.
My children are going to pay for your mistake.
It's indefensible.
I just got an email from Mike Lee.
He says,
effective opposition to the move toward out of control,
unconstitutional government will remain limited in its effectiveness
as long as anyone's signaling alarm is dismissed as fringe, far-right fanatic.
And yet both of our political parties, the entire news media establishment, and our education system does exactly that.
Consequently, all of the wrong things and the wrong people are alternately praised or relentlessly attacked,
depending on whether they advocate advancing or retreating from the march toward out-of-control government untethered from the Constitution.
He is right.
And it's the first time I've heard really somebody stated eloquently, it's both sides.
Now, if I'm a noise maker just to make noise, why would I be saying it's on both sides?
Why wouldn't I just be trying to get my guys elected go team go?
I'm looking for people who will protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
I'm looking for somebody that will not spend us into oblivion and make my children slaves to a debt that is they will never pay off.
And America, that debt is not going away.
Do you think anyone will forgive our debt?
Anyone will forgive our debt?
No, they will take our land.
They will take our resources.
But they will not forgive our debt.
Where are the people in Washington that understand,
I didn't send you there to make laws?
I sent you there to protect the Constitution.
and all of this, all of this, destroys the Constitution,
all of this game playing, all of these shell games
that are in all of these laws that you pass.
Say what you mean, mean what you say,
and let's please get our spending under control.
We'll remember you at election time.

Hello, you sick freak.
Welcome to the program.
It is Friday.
There is so much news that is out today, but this is my last hour before vacation.
So I'm going to get to very little of it, but I put it all out in our free email newsletter today.
There's a lot of stuff that you do need to pay attention to.
We'll hit some of that stuff.
And my wife wasn't really happy with me yesterday when she came in the door with a target bag.
And I'm hoping I'm not the only person that is going through this because I'm struggling a little bit because she's struggling a little bit.
Happy wife, happy life.
You know what they say?
She's not real happy right now.
Anyway, we'll get into that here in just a second.
First, let me tell you about American financing.
Federal Reserve has continued to increase interest rates, looking like they're going to do it again.
Why?
Because the government is spending so much money.
You want to fight inflation.
They have got to stop spending money, and we have to pay for the low interest rates of the past.
But it's not going to happen.
To the moon, Alice, to the moon.
Here's the thing American financing can do for you.
They specialize helping people just like you get out from under high interest debts and find some freedom and breathing space.
Right now, they're saving people just like you an average of $700 a month.
Now, if you have your own home, you might want to consider bringing your high credit card bills that have really high interest and it's only going to get worse and bring them down and lock them in into the six.
range. That can be done, and American financing are the people that could do it for you.

So I don't know if you're experiencing this crisis, but it is becoming
a crisis in our society.
And it has a lot of to do with, you know, affordable sheets with high thread count.
Or better yet, one place where you can get absolutely everything.
We're watching, I think men across the country are watching in horror as our wives, moms, sisters, are reeling in agony.
and I think beginning to go through some withdrawals.
I'm just June 2nd.
June 2nd.
I know.
I know people have been saying they've got to do it all June.
And we've been doing it since before that.
So we're a little ahead.
And I think some others are.
But I came home, was it yesterday or the day before?
And I was home on that pretty good mood.
My wife comes home because my son is.
graduating tomorrow. And then Saturday, we leave for vacation. And we haven't really done,
I should say, I haven't really done anything about it because I'm trying to juggle everything here.
And so she came in the door yesterday and she had a target bag. And I went, Tanya. And she just pointed
across the room and kept moving, and she just pointed at me, I don't want to hear it. And I'm like,
yes, ma'am. And she's like, I have a thousand things going on and I do not have time to run to six
different stores. And it's not June yet. And I'm like, I think that is, I applaud you. I applaud you. I
applaud you, sweetheart. Good for you. Take a stand.
Or don't.
Or don't. Or don't. No. Take a stand that you got too many things to do or not. Whatever you want.
I'm with you. So now I'm not saying that I've kept a diary.
But I'm not not saying that either.
Let's just say Bob's been keeping track.
On day one, he wrote, over the course of this week, I kept notes in my diary.
It was not easy.
Several times my cover was nearly blown.
My wife began the day optimistic, determined.
She kept saying, I can do it.
I can do it.
For the sake of what is right, I can do it.
And for a moment there, I thought this boycott was going to be kind of easy.
I thought she'd, you know, bounce into action and never look back.
About noon on day one, she started to crack.
just a little bit. She looked at me and said, the only jeans that fit me properly are from Target.
Where am I going to get my jeans? What will I do without my favorite jeans? And, you know, I was,
I think you look wonderful. And nothing were this according to Bob, of course, and he sensed a change in day one.
One weird thing, she has been speaking differently.
It's almost like a nervous tick.
Random words come out at random times.
Day one, kissed her goodnight, said, I love you.
She said, I love Lint, Lindor milk chocolate candy truffles.
And I think that has something to do with Target, but I'm not really sure.
Day two, she began laughing today a lot.
And then abruptly stopping into a grimace that reminds.
reminded me of, you know, gargoyles a bit.
You know, this is going to be a good thing.
I really think it's going to be a good thing.
It's going to be a good thing, you know,
followed by a long-winded rant about how Satan tempted Jesus,
and this is my temptation in the desert.
Later, I found her reading her scriptures, Matthew 4,
while repeating 40 days of this.
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm,
she tried to go to Walmart,
made it about 10 feet into the store.
She sped home and took a shower for 45 minutes.
Day three,
have you seen the shining?
The way Jack Nicholson slowly becomes unhinged,
it's beginning to feel like that on day three at the house.
Several times I caught her petting picture frames.
When I asked if everything was okay,
she said,
I can find,
I can find gallery frames for an excellent price anywhere.
You know, think of the frames.
Later I caught her piling bath bombs onto her side of the bed.
I said, honey, what are those for?
And her answer was a little terrifying.
I can't really remember.
Only something about the onslaught of a war of sparkles and T-Rose.
So I don't know what that means.
And I didn't ask.
Day four, the shakes have begun.
Confusion has overtaken her eyes.
Every couple of minutes, she gasps, then looks around, faceful of panic and says,
where will I find oversized blouses?
And gasp again, what if somebody has a birthday?
Where am I going to go?
Where am I going to go?
What if there's a birthday?
Day five, midway through lunch, she shrieked, realizing,
She was only seven remaining decorative pillows away from an empty bedtop.
Our day somehow got worse when news broke that Chip and Joanna Gaines had just released their new candle troth.
That was day five.
Didn't it?
Day six, the rations have vanished.
The boycott now has begun to affect the family's food supply just a little bit.
This morning, you know, do we have any milk?
And my wife whispered, don't you know where the milk comes from?
Don't you know where I get the milk?
And I said, I don't need any milk.
Milk?
What milk?
She was almost out of Meyer's soap, nearly caved when the revelation kicked in that she might have to go to Walmart.
And then they only carry soft soap and dub from what I now know to be true.
To make matters worse, Target had just released their new Myers-Fall sense, including but not limited to pumpkin spice,
which if you don't have pumpkin spice, Myers-Soap, who are you really?
Then things really spiraled when she needed to pick up Starbucks honey flat white and some new laundry detergent.
for the first time in a long time,
this was going to require two stops,
and those two stops did not make her happy.
At bedtime, she locked herself into the guest bedroom
and insisted on being left alone.
I could hear her reorganizing the decorative prints
as she recited, make good things happen.
Make good things happen.
Sunshine is a state of mind.
Day seven, for the first day,
I have a little hope.
Long story short,
the whole thing was awful, terrible, miserable, heartbreaking,
but still not bad enough to make me or any of my friends want to chug down a bud light.
So there is that upside.
It's a harrowing tale.
Well, are you okay?
I mean, is your friend okay?
Bob's okay.
Bob's okay.
I feel bad for Bob if Bob had a radio show.
And then he read that about his wife.
I'm glad this is not about Tanya, especially if she's listening, because she's an angel and she is rock solid.
Right now, right now, I can tell you for sure.
She is in our bedroom.
She's got the suitcases open.
and she may have, may have done what she normally does,
which is like also pack up some of my stuff.
Right now, she's probably saying,
oh, really? Really?
You'll pack when you get home.
Let's see how that works out for you.
But she's not doing that.
Right.
Because she's not listening.
Hope to God.
God.
I have one question from this unexplained diary that you have from your friend.
Founded at auction.
Have they actually really released pumpkin spice crap already?
Is that real?
Jeez.
All right.
It's too early.
So everything is pumpkin spice.
It is.
And I'm a little saying.
It was cool when it first came out, you know?
And now I like it.
I like it for about a week.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not a Jew?
No, no, it's not too early, too early.
You know, when you're making pumpkin pie, you go to wash your hands and it smells like pumpkin pie.
I mean, why wash?
Save the money, save the trip to Target.
Why wash?
Nothing quite as satisfying as knowing that everyone in the house is asleep except you,
staring up at the ceiling, listening to the clocks on the wall, just tick.
Yeah, I love that feeling.
the next day, Tanya actually been a little stressed out.
A little stressed out.
We both have, but, you know, I might add to stress.
A little bit, a little bit.
And so she couldn't sleep the other night.
And she said, I haven't slept well in three days, which immediately made me feel guilty,
you know, because I had been sleeping fine for three days.
And she said, I'm taking relief of factor sleep.
And I was like, cool.
I mean, she could have said, I'm taking heroin.
And I would have been like, whatever, dear, whatever you need.
Would you like me to go get a, I don't even know, a dime bag?
Is that what that is?
I don't know, but I'll ask for one.
She took relief factor sleep.
She got up the next morning and she was in a great mood and had a great night's sleep.
I'm just saying,
might be breaking up some of those capsules and sprinkling on some of the food.
Are you poisoning your wife?
Nope, just trying to make sure she has a good night's sleep.
Relief Factor Sleep.
You can get it now.
Unleash the power of Great Sleep by calling 800 the number four relief.
800, the number four relief.
Go to Relieffactor.com.
Relieffactor.com.
Dream big and sleep tight.
Ten seconds. Station ID.
Oh, dead.
Probably not the way to start a vacation.
Probably not. Again, you better hope she's packing.
Well, no, packing for the trip.
Oh, yeah, no. Yeah, no. You better hope she's not packing.
Yeah, because that would be bad.
Yes. That would be bad.
How dead would you be without your wife?
No, I mean, you can't function.
Everything just falls apart in the household for, even if she's away for several hours.
She is, like, she is, and I'm not just saying this because I'm.
No, yes, you are. Okay, a little bit.
But she's like a CEO.
She, I got to tell you, she leaves and all of us just stand around going,
anybody know where a fire extinguisher is?
I mean, nothing happens.
Nothing happens.
Come home and she has got like this list in her head.
Got to do this, got to do this, got to do this, got to do this.
I mean, what are you guys doing?
I'm like, I don't have that list.
I didn't get that list.
how do you have that list in your head?
What's it like to live in that head with that list?
Yeah, that's why it's a challenge.
I mean, it is a challenge for people.
Obviously, you're exaggerating.
But there's a challenge for a lot of people to avoid that.
Because it makes it easy, right?
And you get to a place where you know where everything is in there.
I think that's the same thing, though, with phones.
You know, we have our cell phones.
And you know, you could have a cell phone.
Get a flip phone.
You just don't have all social media on it.
Uh-uh.
Uh-uh.
because it makes life really easy.
I will tell you that I'm starting to carry my phone.
I noticed you had it the other day,
which I have not seen you carry a phone in many, many years.
Yep.
Why is that?
Well, I got a call from somebody that everybody in the audience would know.
And this individual is not one that I would normally get a call from.
Right.
And I got messages from people, I think, from high school that I haven't spoken to since high school, saying,
Glenn, somebody's trying to get a hold of you.
What do you do?
Where are you?
Where are you?
You know, and I was just not anywhere near my phone.
And this individual doesn't know I don't have a phone.
And it was not good, not good.
And so then the next day I had written to somebody.
I said, you know, can I hire you to take some photographs of the museum stuff?
He said, sure.
And he said, when do you want to do it?
And I said, this week would be great Wednesday.
And he said, okay, I've got to move some other clients around.
But yes, we'll do it Wednesday.
And then he came Wednesday, but I hadn't seen his response to me.
So I didn't know he's coming.
So then he got to the studios and apparently he was sitting right there.
But he got into the studios and he said, you know, I have an appointment with Glenn to do some stuff and I'm on the air.
And they said, no, you don't.
And my staff was not there this day.
And no, you don't.
And he said, yeah, I do.
And they said, who made the appointment?
and he said, Glenn did.
And they said, Glenn doesn't make his own appointments.
That doesn't happen.
And so he was here and they waited to come in and he waited.
He waited apparently, apparently he waited for about 12 hours.
Well, not 12 hours, eight hours.
Oh, just the eight hours.
Okay.
And in different locations, yeah, in different locations.
And he apparently,
also left messages on my phone, which I don't carry.
And he didn't know that.
And it was bad.
And I don't know what the staff was thinking, because I wasn't even here after about four of those hours.
Oh, good.
And so I've decided, I think I'm going to carry a phone.
I'm going to do it.
Really?
Now, I don't think that will improve things at all.
You don't think.
No.
Because I know you.
And what will happen is you will now schedule more of your own appointments that you will not tell
anyone else about and you will still forget about them.
The more access you have to people, the worst things get.
That's just a general rule we've developed around here over many, many years.
I said, you know, I said, because I talked to everybody, I was like, how come you guys
didn't come in?
And they're like, Glenn, you don't do this.
We have people come by say this all the time.
Right.
Yeah.
And they're like, we didn't know.
So, you know, you didn't tell anybody and your guys weren't here.
And so no.
And I was like, okay, that's a.
And you told him that I don't usually do this.
And he said, yeah, I did.
And, you know, after talking to pretty much everybody in the building and they all said the same thing, his response was, well, I see why he doesn't make his unemployment.
Yeah, that's something I would agree with.
That's horrible.
I felt like a horrible human being.
It's hard to keep track of stuff, of course.
But you are particularly like, you get focused on something.
all in on it and then in your head it's over and that doesn't mean it leaves your head though so no one
else knows what's going on and yeah well i just didn't see his follow-up email that was the problem
you haven't seen an email in 20 years okay all right another thing that maybe we should talk about i mean i
gave up emailing you legitimately a decade ago like like legitimately a decade ago i did try to email you
the other day and i looked at all of these and i said i think these are from like when we lived in
philadelphia right i mean i don't even know hearing
I know one phone number and that's my wife's.
Yeah.
One.
And I will say, when, if I have to contact you, and I don't even try most of the time because I know I can't do it.
Right.
But if I have to do it, the only way I can even attempt it is to call Tanya.
Because Tanya actually is a human being that is in contact with other human beings.
And at least she's near you and might be able to get you a message.
Right.
This is.
Well, I got a lot of things to do.
Yeah, and they're all very important.
And they're all very important.
Very important meaning to miss.
So maybe I shouldn't carry a phone.
All right.
Back in just a second.
Final half hour.
The Glenn Back program.
I just told me who the person was that this was trying to call him.
Not a call you should be missing.
No, not a call I should be missing.
Anyway, okay, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
Seems that it wasn't that long ago when the third.
rail for conversation in business was the same as a dinner table, religion and politics, but now
all of that's gone.
Everything is political now.
Well, it shouldn't be that way.
But while it is, if you're going to do that, fine.
I am not helping your company help destroy America.
I'm not going to do it.
That's why I have, but I never use it.
My wife does.

You know, there's a story out today.
It's in our pre-show prep at glenbeck.com about why this bud light thing is really working.
And that's because people are buying it at the bars.
And if you ask for a bud light in some of these bars, people are just harassing you.
They're like, oh, really?
And that's really how you do it.
You just don't do that with your wife at Target.
No, well, if you want to say married, you certainly don't do it.
Right.
Well, if you don't want to stay married, do it a lot.
A lot.
Yeah, the quote from the is Marina Cafe in Great Kills on Staten Island.
And they said, not only did the sales of Bud Light tank two months ago, but the rare partakers of the product these days find themselves reamed by fellow patrons.
Again, like, you would go in there enjoy a beer.
Even if you like Bud Light, you just don't want to get in the middle of us.
It's just so much easier, though.
Like, my wife came home the other day, and I don't know.
needed to buy a blouse for my daughter and hamburger meat and a candle.
I don't know.
And she was like, I wasn't running to three stores today.
I don't have time.
Yeah.
And I'm like, I just think this is poor planning.
You knew you needed that candle a long time ago, sister.
You're going to have vacation.
What do you need a candle for?
When you're gone, I'm romancing somebody.
Anyway, so the, it's just hard because that just breaks your day up.
and you've got it. It's,
Bud Light is easy. Pull that one
or pull that one. Yeah. I don't
want that one. Bored glass of that. The easy substitute is such a key
part of this. Yeah, it is. And I think too, there's just that
level of, you know, you have to make it so you're not ruining
your own life because of their bad decisions. And that's tough to do.
Let me ask you, do you think this is why Hispanics are
becoming white supremacists?
Are they? Oh, well, the rise of Latino
white supremacy, it's,
I mean, it's right here in black and white.
What is this, Vanity Fair?
Oh, well, the New Yorker.
Even better.
They're smarter.
They have cartoons you don't, nobody understand.
Even the people who draw them don't understand them.
Right.
So they've got to be right.
And maybe it's because, you know, they go for that high thread count sheet and they can't
get them in Target anymore.
So they're like, where are we going to go?
I don't know.
So the high threat kind of sheet for the clan's outfits?
Well, they might not really agree with everything, but they want the sheets.
You know?
Okay.
So it's not an ideological affinity to the clan.
It's the just comfort of nice thread counts.
I don't know.
I just know that the New Yorker has a whole piece out about how we are now, you know,
seeing the rise of Hispanic white supremacy.
Because I've noticed that they call Hispanics brown, which I really hate that term.
I don't know why.
Brown people.
and they'll call them brown peoples,
as if black and brown,
and then they'll call brown peoples,
people of color.
All these really weird...
I have color in my face.
It's just pig, pink.
Right, everyone has it.
Everyone's got some color.
No one's actually white.
I don't know if anyone's noticed this.
Maybe a few exceptions.
But I always find this to be interesting
is that when they want to claim Hispanics
as their own, their people of color,
but now they can also be white and white supremacists.
They stop being.
Colorful.
Right.
They're no longer POCs at that point.
No, because they're not agreeing.
And there are some people that they have found that are, you know, have racist Nazi tattoos.
Now, I just don't understand that.
I mean, I think this is, this might be a case of you're either really stupid if you're just, I want to get a Nazi tattoo.
and you're any other color than pig pink.
Okay, because Nazis don't like color.
In fact, the ideal color is like, like spooky-ass white with blue eyes.
Okay, the kinds that you're like look at and like, I think they're half wolf.
That's the ideal, okay, I guess.
And you're not, you're not that.
So they're going to figure that out at some point.
So I don't know how that works.
I mean, I guess you could be a non-white, a non-white, white supremacist if what you're, are you just relating this to fascism generally?
So here's what they're saying.
This article is crazy.
But they say, um, uh, they say that, look, the Hispanics know that they have to be more white and act more white if they want to be successful.
And so they're just acting white.
And they're just saying, hey, we, we, we.
We want to be white so badly and be accepted by the white people that will join the clan.
I got news for you, man.
You're wearing a sheet.
A lot of white people are not going to like you.
The overwhelming majority are going to think you're insane.
Just so you know.
Right.
And not because do you not look in the mirror or do you not listen at meetings?
Because that's nuts.
Yeah.
But whether you're white or black or any other color, you're accepted.
and membership in the KKK automatically
makes you insane. Yeah, I agree.
But I tell you, they're pushing it.
They are pushing it. These Hispanics are pushing
white supremacy. Like, oh,
crazy, Stu.
It's not just because of Target.
Just the New Yorker article?
No. Well, you know, I'm a big fan of
Maria and Teresa.
Oh.
Yeah, the...
The telenovela?
Yeah, they're great. I watch them
all the...
time. Do you? Yeah, I do. I do. I don't think I realized that.
You know, but I was watching the other day and I was watching Teresa and, uh, and there was a
scene with Teresa and Pablo. And all of a sudden, they start talking about, uh, about white supremacy.
And I'm like, wait a minute. What? And Teresa was not happy. Sorry, Teresa was not happy about it.
I didn't know you spoke Spanish. Hmm? I didn't even know you spoke Spanish. How do you, are there,
Well, may I?
Because I brought the, I brought the clip in.
Okay.
And I'll translate it for you.
You speak Spanish?
I don't know.
Okay, good.
So let me just, let me translate what happened on Teresa.
Okay.
Teresa just found Pablo, wandering the street.
Stop, stop, stop, not yet.
Teresa is, I'm trying to set this up.
This is complex stuff.
Sure.
Teresa just found Pablo, wandering the street.
of Mejillo City.
Why, you do that very well.
Thank you.
You do.
Speak Spanish, apparently.
Yeah, I do.
I do.
I do.
And she realizes something's wrong with Pablo.
Okay?
Now, go ahead.
What is wrong with you, Pablo?
You look like you see the ghost.
I know what it is.
I saw you last night walking around town with those angry looking men wearing bed sheets and carrying
crosses.
Will it crosses at midnight, Teresa?
Have you never heard of the Ku Klux Klan?
Yes, I have.
But it doesn't really make any sense to me.
They're white supremacists.
Why would they expect a Hispanic man like you?
They know you're not white, don't they?
You're not white.
They know I love the white race, Teresa.
What?
Like Hitler.
Like Hitler, what do you mean?
Hitler, what do you mean?
Well, he was a brunette.
But he knew blondes were better.
So just like him, I may be Hispanic.
But I wish I was white.
Right?
Yes, see, see, see, see.
Yes, it's true.
I believe that.
But why would you join those blanket-wearing men?
They're freaks.
Teresa, we are not freaks.
The clan is so old-fashioned.
No?
You're better than that.
Any Hispanic white supremacist
worth his salt would only join the Patriot Front.
Their uniforms are actually stylish.
And they're definitely not feds.
I guess I was wrong about you, Pablo.
You will never be white.
Never be white.
Wow, that was dramatic.
Yeah, it was crazy.
And it just spilled out my living room the other day.
Wow.
Yeah.
See, I didn't know.
And I'm not a, I say, no, I don't speak Spanish.
Yeah.
Like, wouldn't the name Hitler just translate as Hitler?
I didn't hear Hitler.
Spanish is very strange.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
You know, it's like C.
And yes.
Totally different.
No, I know.
Okay.
I know that's how language works in translation, but like names usually stay the same.
Not in Mexico.
Okay.
A lot of them change their names.
A lot of them.
Well, I mean, that did explain the phenomenon of white supremacist's Hispanics.
They're pushing it hard.
They're pushing it hard.
They really are.
Yeah, that damn Telemundo.
Damn.
Well, there it is.
You've got the truth finally.
You need to do a new podcast on just...
I'm going to do it in Spanish.
You know, like they did those succession recaps?
The what?
You know, like, succession, the show that just ended.
They do like a daily or weekly podcast on reviewing what happened.
You could do that for these telenovela.
In Spanish, of course.
We could do that.
Yeah.
We could do that.
Would you like me too?
I get bad.
Sure.
Yeah, we'll just tape a few episodes and then I'll come and translate them.
Will you be able to keep up with it on your vacation?
Will you still watch them?
You don't want to miss any developments.
Oh, I can watch those things, you know, all the time.
Okay.
All the time.
Good.
Especially Maria.
Maria.
Maria.
Maria.
The night on Maria.
Okay.
I guess, you know, Congress has, you know, decided to make all the economic decisions with the magic ape.
ball. You know, it's not just any magic eight ball. This one, no matter how many times you shake it,
it just comes up, comes up with the same answer. Spend more. You will spend more. So I guess we've got
to go with the magic eight ball and Mitt Romney. Throughout history, time and time again,
the same financial wisdom holds true. Precious metals such as gold and silver have always been
the best hedge against the insanity that plagues the markets and politicians from time to time,
You know, right before a collapse.
The Gold Line wants to make sure that you've got some gold or silver on hand.
Goldline is celebrating Memorial Week.

Oh, man, you should have heard what Teresa was saying about the Mayflower.
She hates those.
Really?
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah.
Who would have known?
It's crazy.
Pablo, I don't know how it's going to turn out, but Pablo lost his mind.
Anyway, the popular quarter-ounce gold Mayflower round, you'll receive, if you buy a tube of them, at no charge, either five of the five-ounce silver American flag bars, or you can opt to receive 25 of the one-ounce Liberty Bell silver rounds.
Today is the last day.

Something new.
From exclusively on Paramount Plus,

something you need to watch.

From Binge All episodes
exclusively on Paramount Plus.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad that you are here.
Thank you so much for listening.
How many people get into the presidential race?
What's the number? Right now, I think we have
eight, nine, something like that. What's the final number,
you think? There are only 350 million Americans.
Right. So I don't think it could be over that.
Okay. Some of them are children. Yeah.
So they're not qualified.
Okay. But that doesn't.
And there's a lot of people.
You think this president was qualified?
Oh, no, not at all.
Okay.
Many are non-citizens.
In theory, that would not qualify them, though that might.
They could run for the Democratic.
Sure.
Yeah.
I think we had, what, 16 or 17, like, relatively real candidates in 2016?
I think the Democrats got up to like 20.
Well, the Democrats aren't going to have it.
They're going to have some people running, but they're not going to notice them.
Yeah, this time, even people with like 25% of the vote don't even get a debate.
I mean, that is crazy.
Isn't it?
crazy. I mean, that is so authoritarian. I don't know how you can be a Democrat and not see
how authoritarian this is. Because I think that GOP is authoritarian enough, you know?
Yeah, but when Reagan was, when Reagan was elected, the Democrats freaked out and they're like,
we can't let that happen in our party. We will not have that Bernie Sanders. And they just,
I mean, for him to be running and them not with his poll numbers,
You're talking about our
Biden versus RFK Jr.
Yeah.
Even Marianne Williams.
Yeah.
I mean, with his poll numbers and his lack of ability to think for them to say, no, we're not having any debates, is just the kind of stuff that Putin would do.
Yeah.
And, you know, I feel like usually in a situation like this, you'd have some, you know, strong challenger.
Like, if you're like, I don't know, if you're like a Gavin, New.
And you really think you want to be president.
And believe me, he does.
What are you holding back for?
This guy's incredibly vulnerable.
I mean, a real challenger could make a difference probably in that primary.
Do you want to be that?
First of all, do you want to be that?
I mean, you know, it would take somebody who just either wants to play the game and be a part of the cool kids club.
And they're already in it.
They're already there.
Or somebody who wants to change things.
Do you think you want to go run as a traditional Democrat, one that actually believes in the Bill of Rights?
No way.
They will eat you alive.
Look at how they just destroy people.
No, thank you.
I mean, you know, going in against Trump, that's bad enough.
That's bad enough because you know how he fights.
He fights to win.
And, you know, I don't know how.
you don't walk out dizzy after a debate with him.
But that's bad enough when you got one guy.
You don't have the media, the entire Democratic Party, the entire institution coming out against you.
Uh-uh.
Yeah.
I mean, you can really compare the 2016 primary to this one in a way.
Because, you know, Hillary was coming off of being Secretary of State.
she was the obvious nominee.
And you had people challenging her, like Bernie Sanders, like Martin O'Malley and a few others.
There were at least people who jumped into the race that, who made a big impact.
And Hillary had to deal with them, right?
Hillary had to debate them.
We all remember seeing those debates.
Joe Biden, they're like, well, we can't put him on stage.
You might just fall in his face.
I mean, I don't mean, fall in his face in the debate.
I mean, literally fall on his face in the middle of the debate.
Just really bad.
And just protecting him.
him. They're trying to keep him out of public
view and to see if it worked.
They're like, well, it worked in 2020.
The whole COVID thing gave us a kind of a path
here to just keep him in the basement and see what happens.
And man, I can't believe they're trying it again. I would be very
frustrated if I were a Democrat at that development.
You know, RFK Jr., look, I don't think he's
not a serious candidate. Right? He's really not.
I mean, he's not a guy who's been, other than
his last name. No, this is how
we are so desperate. This is
this is the
Democratic
Donald Trump.
This is a guy
that the Democrats are like,
I don't agree with this guy
on a lot of stuff,
but at least he's talking
some sense on a few big things.
Get him in.
I mean, that shit,
30% of the electorate
in the Democratic Texas and say,
give us somebody else.
I know.
Even if it's Mary Ann Williams.
I know.
That's amazing.
We'll see you in a couple of weeks.
