Welcome to aboard via rail. Embarked and profite. Embarked and relax. Cirotay. Bookine. Oh, that also. And profite.

Viaray, the voice that we love that we am. Thank you so much, Hillary. I want to tell you a little bit of something about home title lock. You have a homeowner's insurance for a pretty good reason, usually because without it,

a fire or flood or burglary could theoretically destroy you financially. Yeah. I will say, luckily I have insurance. I went through a flood. It was a catastrophe, but, you know, we were able to put the pieces back together. You might not get that lucky with home title fraud.

Your homeowner's policy doesn't cover it. It's one of the fastest growing crimes in America, and it can absolutely ruin you financially. That's why you need home title lock, because home title lock will protect you against home title fraud. And that happens when a criminal forges your signature on documents stating that you sold your home to them. then he takes out loans against your home and leaves you with the payments. He'll spend a fortune in legal fees trying to prove you didn't commit fraud. That sounds like a lot of fun. Home Title Lock puts a barrier around your home's title.

The second they detect any issues, they can help shut it down. So go to Home Title Lock and register your address. See if you're already a victim. Use the code radio for 30 risk-free days of protection. The code is radio at home titlelock.com. Welcome to it. A lot to talk about today. And it is right before Thanksgiving.

There's a disagreement about that. I think a lot of people would say now. It's controversial. Yeah, it's a little controversial. It's important that we get all sides of that debate. And there are a lot of people, a lot of people who are maybe not as happy. But fair and balanced coverage of that all weekend right here on most of the same station. Yesterday, President Braindead was talking about how well-stocked the grocery stores are.

And man, if you've been at a grocery store, you know, that's true. I don't care if you're seeing empty shelves. he just said the store shelves are full. So I don't want to hear your belly aching. It's not a lack of product. It's an excess of space. Of space on the shelves. Thank you.

You know, the supply chain does not seem to be hurting the empty shelves. No, no, no, no. It's just that there's too much room at these grocery stores. Yeah. And that's an argument of bounty this Thanksgiving season. Right. So when you're looking down that aisle and you see that the shelves, there's like one item on,

shelves and they stretch on for, you know, 50 yards. Mm-hmm. Just know that that's just too much excess space. They shouldn't have a store that big. I mean, they're building these gigantic stores. They got nothing to be. We don't need all that. We don't need all that room, you know, to store a few grocery items.

Fair point. Yeah. Right. They are, you know, it's interesting. It's a waste. Butterball, the turkey company, is saying that they do have a lot of, of turkeys, but many of them are too large. They're too large?

The turkeys are too large. What? And this could be a revolt. At any time, could be a revolt. I feel like if the turkeys grow too big, they're going to take over. I mean, this has been a rough week for turkeys for a long time. And at some point, they're going to want their revenge. And if you let them get too big, who knows what could happen?

I'm a little nervous about that. They're too big. They're too big. And, well, actually, it's interesting. It is. I guess, like, if you want to get a small turkey for a smaller gathering, it's hard. A couple of reasons for that. one, you know, still there's some people who are maybe a little hesitant to have large gatherings

because of COVID. Now I know maybe in this audience, that's not as common, but, you know, think of the left, right? Like, they can't even go outside. Like, if they're going outside by themselves in a field with no one around them, they have an N95 mask on, right? Those types of people are just not going to Thanksgiving gatherings at all. So people are having smaller gatherings and therefore want smaller turkeys. The other thing is last year, and if it's high, hard to remember back a whole year at this point. But last year, really, you know, gatherings were way cut back. It was the first Thanksgiving in COVID.

And, you know, much more dramatically than this year, there were fewer gatherings. And so those turkeys that would have been on your plate were still walking around. Oh, yeah. So they had another year of growth. So now they're too big. The turkeys that are going to come to you are going to be too large. We didn't kill them soon enough. We let them.

live for an entire year, Pat. That was dumb of us. We fed them. Yeah. They grew larger. And now... Now they're ready for the takeover. They're too big and probably going to take over. I mean, I don't think we make it through this weekend as a nation. Now comes the Turkey Revolution. There's going to be a revolt at some point. When you were revolted, like 50 million of you were killed every year. Exactly. Yeah, you'd be pissed. They'd be pissed off. So I would assume, now I would prepare myself for an attack. That's all I'm saying. At some point... The attack of the turkeys. The turkeys. It's They're coming. You know it's coming.

But here's what the president had to say about it. I also met to the CEOs of Walmart, Target, Home Depot, T.J. Max, and others. Those retailers, large retailers and others agreed to move products more quickly, stock the shells more quickly. And by the way, you may have heard the CEO of Walmart yesterday on the steps we've taken. He said, and I quote, the combination of private enterprise and government working, together has been really successful. He went on to say all the way through the supply chain, there's a lot of innovation because of the actions we've taken, things have begun to change. End of quote. In the past three weeks, the number of containers sitting on docks blocking movement

are down by 33%. Really? Shipping prices are down 25%. That's a lie. More goods are moving more quickly and more cheaply out of our ports, onto your doorsteps. Are they? On the store show. How come there's 160 ships in the L.A. Harbor? There would be, there'd not be ample food available for Thanksgiving. So many people talked about that. So many people. Understandably. But families can rest easy.

Grocery stores are well-stocked with Turkey and everything else you need for Thanksgiving. And everything you need. And the major retailers I mentioned have confirmed. They confirmed. Their shelves will be well-stocked in stores this holiday season. Yeah. And that's good news for those moms and dads are worried about whether the Christmas gifts will be available. That is good news.

It goes for everything from bicycles to ice skates. Huh. Yeah. Every single thing between bicycles and ice skates. Everything. What if it's not between bicycles and ice skates? Then it's not there. But we're not talking about that right now.

So anything that is like it might start with a J. Yeah. Past ice skates or have an A before bicycles is not going to be. No, everything else should be fine. Like avocados, there aren't any. No, there's not. Yeah. So they're not.

They're being eaten by the revolting turkey. If you want juice, it's not. there. Oh gosh. It's not there. No. Definitely not. I mean, that's clear down at J. Yeah. So forget it. So I don't, I mean, I don't typically go to T.J. Max for Thanksgiving, but is there? No. Oh my gosh.

Well, we ate there last year. You did indoor dining at T.J. Max. At T.J. Max. For Thanksgiving. Yeah. Yeah. That's an interesting. So I'll think I'm some gravy there, you know, but that's about it. I'm not going crazy at T.J. Max. It was a weird. It was a weird inclusion of T. Max in the Thanksgiving babbling he had there. And since when did Democrats become such big fans of Walmart and what the Walmart CEOs. They love Walmart. They love Walmart now. Man, man, the discounts you can get there and the low pay that the employees have so they can keep their prices low,

ah, they love all that. Yeah, it's interesting because they love it all. And their argument here, right, is that not only will the stuff be at the store, but Walmart's going to do everything it can to keep the prices low, which is something they usually terrorize Walmart for in the administration. They say, oh, well, Walmart's salaries are too low. Their hourly wages are too low. They're not giving a living wage. This is an evil company. It's exploiting workers. All of that until the second they need them. Yep. And you know what? I mean, frankly, Walmart falling in in Home Depot. He threw in Home Depot too. They hate Home Depot because their CEO is somewhat conservative. they hate them.

Yeah, and the founder was conservative. The founder, yeah. But, you know, it's like the second they need them, they quote them as if they're, it's evidence of their policies working. And, you know, at some level, you have to be a little critical, I think, of these companies for falling into this over and over again. If a, if an administration, and the left has done this for decades now, criticizes your company for being essentially operating a sweatshop, maybe when they need you for a press conference like this, you don't show up. Yeah.

You know? Maybe you tell them, screw off. I'm not going to come here and bail you out of your little, your little begging for supply chain good news. Screw off. Right, because the very second they don't need you anymore, they're going to be bad-mouthing you.

Yeah. And talking about how evil you are and how low-paid, how low-paid your employees are and that they don't have good benefits. And you don't have a job worth having. So, yeah, you're right. They should just, I mean, they should not be helping out this guy. I mean, maybe this is a bit petty. No, it's possible.

I don't think so, though. I don't like so. They're criticizing the entire business model. Yep. Which helps, by the way, millions and millions of people get the things that they need and want on a daily basis. At a price they can fairly well afford. And the left looks at Walmart as this place where you walk and look at this capitalism.

It's just, oh, unfettered capitalism. And look at this. I walk into a Walmart, honestly. and I am, I think of it as a miracle. Think of what is inside the walls all over this country. You walk in, it is endless rows of everything you could possibly need at a relatively good price. And it is always filled. It takes thousands and thousands of people throughout the supply chain to go through this,

to make these products show up magically on these shelves every day. They're always there. and just because of you know of capitalism it's possible I mean it would not be possible if the world

that Joe Biden wants that Kamala Harris wants that AOC wants if they implemented it and none of that stuff is there I mean how many times there's story after story after story of Soviet leaders

who would come here and be blown away at all the bounty that we had and here we are risking it I was I was in a And I've been in this place scant a few times, but there's a pretty much brand new Walmart that opened sort of near where we live. And I walked in there the other day and just the produce section is bigger than our house. It is gigantic.

And to look across the expanse of the whole store, you think, I can't get across this without a golf cart. I can't. I'm not walking that far. I need camping equipment because I'd have to stop. and start a campfire and pitch a tent about halfway through the store. Well, number one, luckily, they have the camping. Yeah, they do. So you could get it there.

Yes, they do. Number two, this may be more of a commentary on your age than it is on the Walmart size. No, you may just be a little. It's big. It's really big. It is really big. And yes, I'm getting old. So that part is true.

They may have more to do with your back problems than it does with Walmart size. But it is really amazing. There's new products. They're, as you mentioned, fresh produce. I mean, you think about back when, you know, you're growing up, the local department store, if they had produce, was probably terrible, right? You know, it would be worse than anything you could get at a, you know, a gas station. Now even gas stations have produce sometimes.

Yeah. And places like Walmart, I mean, are stocked Florida ceiling with everything. There's almost nothing you can't get there. Yeah. And I will say, like, you know, at some, I have noticed. less, and I don't know if this is different in different parts of the country, usually Texas is better. So I can't judge your community out there, okay?

All I know is usually things in Texas are better. However, when I go to the, when I've been going to the stores over the past couple months, I've seen less of the absence of products, empty shelves. I've seen some of it, but not a lot. What I have seen and noticed is that the prices are going up. And, you know, that either one of those two. issues are hitting Americans in ways that are, you know, really damaging. You know, yeah, you know, remember, it is only four months ago.

Think of this. Four months ago that this administration was out there bragging about saving you 14 cents on your July 4th picnic. That was only four months ago. It seems like 40 years ago. But this administration was tweeting, hey, everyone's saying, prices are going up, but we've saved you 14% or 14%, not percent, 14 cents on your entire July 4th barbecue. And it wasn't just stating it as if like, okay, guys, like everyone's

saying prices are going up and they're actually pretty much flat. Yeah, we see even they're even down 14 cents. It wasn't that. They cited it as evidence that their economic plan was working. That is what their argument was. Fast forward four months. Now they're on TV. telling you all the time. I can't believe, yeah, prices are going way, way, way up. Super high, but it's temporary. We swear. Well, I thought you told me the reason they were down is because your economic plane was working. Did it stop working? The answer to that, of course, is yes. It wasn't working before, and it's not working now, actually.

But this is a, it's hard to imagine failing harder than this administration has. they everything they said they were going to do has been an utter catastrophe from day one in office. And it really is amazing. I mean, the only thing that they can even claim

as a victory is in the middle of inflation, they spent $1.2 trillion on infrastructure largely that we don't need. And the only reason they got that done is because a bunch of Republicans went along with them. And that's a whole other story, but a big important part.

I think it was 13 Republicans, wasn't? I mean, that's a goodly number. You had double digits in Republicans voting with the Democrats. And you can argue. And six Democrats switch sides to the Republicans. And that was in the House, right? Yeah, in the House. Maybe even more significant, you got a bunch of senators that are Republican to do it because

they needed to get over 60 votes. Yeah. And the Republicans said, you know what, Joe, you need a PR victory. You need something that's going to make inflation worse and commit all. sorts of problems. Again, this is not money that we have. These are not things that we need largely. There's some things in there that you could argue that we need, but a lot of it was just fluff and spending and buying people off. And Republicans, a bunch of them said, you know what, let us help you with that. And remember when Democrats did that for Trump? No, you don't,

because it never happened. No. And nor would it ever. It just would not ever happen. The only time it happened was when Donald Trump was doing a Democratic priority, criminal justice reform. When criminal justice reform was going on, Democrats jumped on board. But that was their bill largely. Like it was Republicans, it was always been a Democratic priority.

And they weren't really on board with Trump so much as Kim Kardashian. Yeah. Cardassian, Kanye. She kind of pushed that one forward. All right.

It's Pat and Stu for Glenn, AAA 727 BECK. Biden had other things to say. He's talking about high gas prices and how we faced worse spikes than this. Come on. You know, today, though, I want to address another challenge. Okay. That families are facing. And the one I think the most focused on right now, high gas prices.

This is a problem. Is it? Not just here in the United States, but around the world. Around the world. The price of gasoline has reached record levels recently in Europe and in Asia. Yeah. In France, at the end of the last month, it reached about six. $7 per gallon.

In Japan, it's about $5.50 per gallon. Wow. The highest it's been in years. Of course, it's always painful when gas spices... Pause it for a second. This is to say that this isn't my fault. In some countries, it's even higher than what we have here. So I've got nothing to do with this.

Yeah. In Russia, in Russia, the prices are high. And in France, $7 an hour. and I think some other place in Europe, they're like $17 an hour. I'm not sure, but I think so. But what I'm saying, it's not my fault. It's these damned other people who do these things, the people who produce oil. Yeah.

I don't know if he is aware of this? We're like the largest oil, or at least we were under Trump, the largest oil producer in the world. we have more oil in the ground and shale than even Saudi Arabia. And yet, for some reason, we can't be energy independent again? How did that happen? How did that happen? He'll take none of the blame on that. But we were right on the precipice of energy independence.

And now he's pulled us back. We should also note that the reason why gas prices are higher in places like Japan are largely, I mean, Japan's a specific. example, but like a lot of these countries just jack up taxes really high. And by the way, it was his party. I mean, Biden tried to take credit for this. Oh, they said they wanted the gas tax. And I said no.

I said that's going to hit people too hard. It's like, well, first of all, the party is saying they want it. You should note that. That's important to know. And they've been arguing for this for a very long time. The fact that they blocked it this one time, it does not mean much. If gas prices were low right now, you'd have it. You'd have that gas tax.

The fact is, they like. high gas prices because that gives them an excuse to push the alternatives on us. Yep. They love it when gas prices. They won't say that, but they love it because that fits into their agenda of the climate change nonsense. And then they

could start harping on you know, the renewable sources. This is the Glennback program. Ah yes. I absolutely love Thanksgiving, but I understand that extra, extra, extra, extra

big pants. Maybe at some shipping dock or a cargo ship and you're not going to get them in time for Thanksgiving. How are you going to eat all that delicious food and not have extra, extra large pants? May I recommend? Put the pie down, 300 calories if you have a small fun slice. But who does that? Build bars on the other hand have about 130 calories, only 4 grams of sugar, plenty of protein. they're actually kind of good for you, you know, and they're made with real chocolate.

It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today. Triple 8-727. B-E-C-K as we headed to Thanksgiving weekend. Thanksgiving Day, Thanksgiving weekend, and unfortunately, Jeffrey choices. To ruin it all. You pronounce it fortunately wrong.

You said unfortunately. Oh, did I? Is that what happened? Weird. That's weird, isn't it? Huh. Yeah. Not really when you think about it.

Oh, happy Thanksgiving. Good to see you. You too. I mean, not a lot. Sort of. You too. Yeah, except for not. A lot.

Okay. Jeffrey, of course, of the Chewing the Fat podcast, where it's an unfortunately titled name. Some people have said, you know, hey, the host of the podcast is also overweight. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, fat. And then then chewing the fat is like just a name. It's a name. It's a play on, you know, it's an actual expression that we're just chewing the fat.

Yeah, right. But something else coincidentally goes into it. It's like a double on ton. Yeah. So it could also have another meaning in there somewhere. I don't know who came up with that name. It's sad, though. It's sad.

You can see it being helpful. It sounds like they might have been poking sort of fun at Jeffie. I hope that's not. I hope that's not the case. I really do. I hope it's not. Because I don't want to be bullied. Yeah, no, that would be bad.

So what can we learn about on chewing the fat today? Well, one of the things that we can learn about is preparedness. I mean, this network, this show, chewing the fat, my show is one of the things that I like to talk about is preparedness. And one of the thing, because you're known. Thank you. Thank you. I am. Yeah, yeah.

I am. So if you, you know, I don't know if you've thought about what you would do. A lot of people think Glenn when they're thinking preparedness. But no. I said I mentioned this network in this show. I'm just latching on to the preparedness handle. Okay. Okay.

So let's say an armored truck spills cash all over the interstate. Yes. I mean, how many times have you traveled by an armored truck and tried to psychically will that door to fly open with bags full of cash? Am I the only one that does that? Okay. Well, it actually happened again in California less than a week ago.

Yeah, in San Diego. And there was cash all over the freeway. Thousands of dollars. Amazing. Thousands of dollars. This girl actually, you know, recorded her TikTok video about it. This is the most insane thing of everyone. It has shut down.

Literally, it has shut down. Look at the freeway right now. Oh, my God. Hey, idiots, stop freaking recording a TikTok and pick up the cash. Well, and many, many were. Only a couple people got arrested because they locked themselves. out of their car idiots. Why do they get arrested for locking themselves out of their car?

Because they had pockets full of cash on them and they couldn't get in their car and get out of there. But don't you take the money out? Now wait, is it illegal? If there's money all over the freeway to stop and pick it up, that's illegal? Yes, you're not supposed to pick it up. It's not your money. What do you mean?

It's not your money. Well, it might be. No, but I'm returning it. I would, of course, return it to the Brinks truck. That's what I'm saying. Be prepared. That's the chewing the fat. says, hey, do you have cash and you're from the freeway?

That's the chewing the fat plan. Yes, I've got freeway cash, but I was going to return it to the Brinks truck. Take as much as you can. Uh-huh. And they even say, if you have it, you need to return it. And a couple of people obviously have listened to chewing the fat because they did. It says in the story how a couple people have returned the money. But that's the plan.

Take as much as you can and immediately go to the police department. Not there. Not the Brinks truck driver who decided that, oh, it's too much money. I can't pick it up. I just let it blow around for a while. We get the police here and pick it up. Wait a minute. But what do you mean?

This seems oddly virtuous from Jeff Fisher. Among the worst people on the planet. There's more to this story. Now we're about to hear the rest of the story. You're not going to return it all. Right. You're going to return 20 bucks. You go right to the police department.

I found $20 officer. I got carried away. You're right. I may be on video out there. You know, somebody may have recorded. of me picking up some money. I got carried away here. Here's my hundred bucks I picked up.

Sorry, and the rest is yours. You're good after that. You've returned it. Even if they come knocking again, we just wanted to be sure you picked up money. I gave, I turned it in. You saw. I wrote it down and you got my picture.

We're good, right? You're all good. And you're home free then. The money is all yours. So be prepared at all times. I do not give thanks for you. Jeffie. This is, I will be...

Disonesty. That's what it is. It's not dishonesty. I won't abide it. You pick up a thousand, return 50, and then you keep pocket the rest. Absolutely. That's your idea of preparedness.

Because you never know when you run into a Brinks truck that dumps, this is the financial advice. This is how you got to the position you're in today. The lofty position. A lofty position.

Today, yeah. You're welcome. Okay. It might not be a brinkstruck. You might just find, you know, cash in a container. What about the idea of giving it all back because it's the right thing to do? Who, Stu? Oh.

Oh. I mean, it's not your fault that someone lost it. So, I mean. No, it's your fault for picking it up, no. When it's not, as you said at the beginning, it's not yours. No, it's not. It belongs to the bank of the brinkstruck. Yeah.

somebody who deposited that money into the bank. And it might have been a lot of times those brink trucks are just taking money to go be burned somewhere, destroyed. It's old money. What? No. No. That's not what happens. No, that's not what happens.

That's how you justify it because it may be getting. Federal Reserve does that. I know. Yeah. Brinks trucks don't do that. What else you have? Just a quick picture. I do.

We did this on a Pat show this morning and I want one desperate. The Guinness World Book of Record set a new record for the Nerf gun and it's 12 feet six inches long. Look at that. And it is awesome. And it's powerful. Like crazy powerful. The 3D printed caps, 12 inch darts, some of the speeds for the full dart and full power is 50 miles an hour, travels up to 250 feet. I want one to roll out of my garage.

It goes through a cinder block. Really? Yeah, full power. It broke a cinder block. With the 12-inch darts and the 3D caps. It'll go through walls. It'll go through cinder block. It's pretty amazing.

What could possibly go wrong? Not a single thing. I can't think of anything that could go wrong there. Now, my mom would say, you could put an eye out. Yeah, you could put a whole head out. You could do a lot more than that. Yeah, you could. Yeah, you'd hurt somebody bad.

Yeah. I mean, little Billy would go with injuries, man. Yeah. I don't know if you survived that. The 50 miles an hour in that thing? When it goes through a cinder block? That would do some serious damage. If you were that close.

To a human body. Yeah. I mean, if it's fired at close range. I mean, if you're 200 feet away. If the kids on the other side of the yard, he's going to get bruised. It'll just sting a little bit.

Like maybe break a bone or cause some kidney damage. Oh, yeah. Concussion. Don't worry about it. No big deal. No big deal. Yeah, you're fine. That's your whining.

Walk it off. Let's your whiten. A little brat. Walk it off. Can we talk about the little hero girl in Florida? Florida, too, in West Palm, the nine-year-old girl that punched the mugger. So there was a mugging in West Palm. And why are you already?

I can just hear the skepticism dripping off of you here. There's no skepticism. The girl's a hero. It's a nine-year-old girl. Her mom. You're going to take the pro-burglars side of this story. No, I'm not. No.

This, how dare you? Now you, now you, now could you possibly think ill of him? You're right. He's starting to make me angry. Okay. I think we have the video and you see the mugger come out of the store and take off after the mom. And he's going to try, attempt to grab her purse. A little girl comes around from behind the store, punches him, nine-year-old girl,

punches him, fights him, kind of shocks him back. And then he takes off running, right? He takes off. He grabs the purse and takes off running. The nine-year-old girl then chases him for several blocks, but doesn't catch him. That's crazy. Right? I mean, it doesn't.

Shouldn't have done that. Amazing. Amazing that this nine-year-old girl. Now, she's being, she got a plaque for being a hero. And she got some target gift card. I don't know for how much. They didn't say, got to be at least $100, right? You don't get a target card for less than $100.

I think it's impossible. So, but they're treating this girl as a hero. Yes. All right. Now, the burglar got away with the purse. Okay. So the burglar got away with the purse. They took a couple days, but they caught the guy.

Okay. It doesn't say if what items that were returned. I mean, she had cell phone gum, several bank cards, a wallet, $40 in cash, and a concealed carry permit. Apparently she wasn't concealed carrying that day. Is it possible that this burglar was just very well prepared and said, hey look I got a little carried away and I got a purse here but this is all that's left inside

Is it possible? Is it possible they were prepared? No, that's what she said was in her purse. No, I know, but is it possible that you know maybe he was going down the Jeffie Road? I mean you are well connected to almost every criminal ring in the United States of America.

It's very possible your advice is penetrated. All I know is is that they treat the little girl as a hero and it was great that she protected her mom. No question. The chasing after the burglar questionable, but protecting her mom and coming around the back of the car and punching the guy, no problem. Seriously, brave little girls. Absolutely. Absolutely. But again, I don't know that I want my nine-year-old daughter. He got away with the

purse. It took him a couple days to arrest him and get him back. It's good. And they're still treating her as a hero. She helped her mom. That's why she's a hero. People don't I know you care about material goods in every single circumstance, but maybe that's not the most important thing of the story, Jeffie. All I know is the guy got away with the purse. And now he's got a concealed carry permit.

Right. And some gum. This is the sort of analysis you will get on chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Good for the girl. You know, if you did protect her mom, that's wonderful. Hero. podcast is available, unfortunately, as part of the Blaze TV network. Avoid it at all.

Have you seen the movie King Richard? No. If it's about King Richard, it violates one of my rules of movies, which it can't be before World War II. That is a rule that you strictly follow. Yes. And I'll watch anything. You don't like medieval or period pieces. Right?

And I love them. It depends what the period is. I love them. The period is 1985. I'm fine with it. I just don't want to go back to like 14-02. Would that include a thing like, Game of Thrones.

Yeah. You didn't watch. I didn't watch it. On this show for Glenn, I did try to jump in on season nine without watching any of the seasons one through eight. Did not work out of work out of work? Did you understand it? No. No.

You do not understand it at all. Really? You never picked up the vibe? I never understood who the people were. I never really understood what was happening. It was very difficult. You should not try to jump into a nine season show on season nine. Because they don't like set up who the characters are again.

Yeah. Like it, which is understandable for most people. But it was an interesting experiment and one that was an absolute failure. This is on, is it on HBO Max? Or maybe, I don't know. I can't remember. But it's really good. What is it?

It's a, it's a movie about the Williams family, Serena and Venus and Serena Williams. So they're not bad. And how he got them to where they are. And, you know, he had a plan. and that's what he talks about the whole time. He had a plan. He says that he put into place even before they were born for the way their life was going to play out. And this guy was, I mean, it's amazing what he did with those girls and how they rose to stardom.

It's really cool. I have two little kids. And some of that stuff makes you nervous as a parent. Like, am I, you know, forcing them to do something that they shouldn't be doing? You know, there's a guy years and years and years ago who had a theory. that it was all nurture and no nature, essentially, in that debate, that you can essentially make your kid into anything if you work hard enough. And his idea was, I'm going to make them the best chess players in the world.

So he literally, as an experiment, went and made their kid just made them live and die chess all the time. And like the worst one of the kids was like one of the, you know, Grandmaster. Like legitimately. Like they were all. Oh, wow. One of them was like the greatest player of all time or one of the,

like it made a grandmaster before, I think, Bobby Fisher. Oh, wow. Yeah, it wound up being. It would seem that the kids would have to be into it. And they were, which was interesting. And if you're, if they're into it, that's good. But if you're forcing them, probably not as good. Now it's, and that's what, you know, Venus and Serena were obviously hit at tennis.

And they took to it. And they believed to their, their dad's motivation and inspiration and all the things that he was saying to them and it all came to fruition. You know, Serena became the biggest earning tennis women's tennis player of all time. And Serena is, or Venus is number two. Wow. Yeah. That's pretty good.

Yeah. It worked out kind of okay for him. Yeah, they came out one and two all time. It's pretty good. Yeah. You probably did a good job, at least as a tennis coach. Did they present him as a good dad? Yes.

Because I know some of those stories can turn dark. I haven't heard that about the He was loving but firm You know and really committed to them becoming really good tennis So they could get off the streets And you know because it came from Compton Where you know they saw violence and drugs And all kinds of things all the time

Not a lot of tennis courts in Compton to my knowledge Not a lot of tennis courts And that was that was one of the deals That's why he did that We maybe should get into a little more Joe Biden today He's pulling a run Burgundy Where he's just reading the teleprompter when it said, end of quote.

I'm not even surprised at this point. He's sharp. He's sharp as attack. This guy is amazing. So quick, witted, and nimble of mind and body. If you look up his medical report, because he just got the big checkup. And his doctor said he's got a noticeably stiffer gait

in the last year. And if you ever see him walk away from the podium and sometimes they do linger on him and show him walking out the door because he won't answer any questions, you see that he is looking a little feeble. He's looking a little bit. I mean, he's walking slower and stiffer

and not fluid, like his doctor mentioned. Plus the cognitive decline. I mean, it's becoming more and more apparent to people, which is why more and more people are thinking, this isn't the guy who should, should be the leader of the free world. Ah, so much fun with the president of the United States and his quick wit and sharp tongue coming up in a few minutes.

It's Pat and Stufer Glenn on the Glenn Beck program. President Biden had much more to say. He was talking about high gas prices. He was talking about the grocery store shelves are going to be well stocked.

Everything's fine. Don't worry about it. And even the Walmart CEO said, hey, everything's great. And the shelves are going to be stocked. And there's nothing to worry about. But, okay, gas prices a little bit high. Yeah, but that's not his fault either. I think you find nothing is Joe Biden's fault.

Has he ever taken any responsibility for anything? I don't think so. Afghanistan, everything was fine. In fact, that went great. It was highly successful. It was either great or it was Trump's fault, depending on the day. Or Trump's fault. Yeah.

Gas prices, not his deal. That's, well, let's see who he blames here for gas prices. You know, today, though, I want to address another challenge. that families are facing. And the one I think they're most focused on right now. High gas prices. This is a problem. Not just here in the United States, but around the world.

The price of gasoline has reached record levels recently in Europe and in Asia. In France, at the end of the last month, it reached about $7 per gallon. In Japan, it's about $5.50 per gallon. The highest it's been in years. Of course, it's always painful when gas spurs. gas prices spike. Today, the price of gas in America, on average, is $3.40 a gallon. In California is much higher.

The impact is real. But the fact is, we faced even worse spikes before. Just in the last decade. We saw it in 2012 when the price of gasoline hit $3.90. And again, who's president then? And who's vice president? 2014, when it hit $3.69. Remind me again, president.

As recently as 2019. we saw it surpassed three dollars in many places. The fact is we always get through those spikes, but we're going to get through this one as well and hopefully faster. Okay. But it doesn't mean we should just stand by idly and wait for prices to drop on their own. Right. It's funny because what he's going to do is this strategic oil reserve,

the petroleum reserve. Release three days, not even three, but almost three days worth of oil. 55 million gallons, right? Isn't that what he's promising to release from the reserve? Yeah, that's all right. 55 million gallons. We consume about 20 million gallons a day in the United States.

That's less than three days of oil consumption. What is that going to do? Almost nothing. That's not going to do anything. What's that going to do? It's not going to drive the price down. There's some analysis that said it could make gas prices drop by about five cents a gallon. for a short time.

Yeah. And then they'll just go right back up. And then what do you do? Do you release three more days? And then three more after that? It's not going to, that's not, it's not a solution to the problem. No. And look, he's obviously right.

There's ups and downs with gas prices. That's not a surprise. Of course, one of the ways that you make the downs outpace, the ups, is by adding to supply, not closing pipelines, not barring. you know, drilling in area after area after area, not agreeing with insane protesters that want to screw our energy supply up and basically, you know, adopt their viewpoint

that fossil fuels are so evil, we need to get rid of them. I mean, you know, again, this new, if you cared about energy prices and you wanted to spend $3.5 trillion on a new bill, you might target that toward development of new. energy sources, not just solar panels, but actual fossil fuels that are reliable and work, right? So long term, he has a terrible strategy. Short term, I don't know that this is going to help. You know, I mean, maybe it helps a little bit, but, you know, I don't know that it's, you know,

obviously gas taxes are a much, a much bigger part of the picture here. I mean, like France's gas prices are $7 a gallon. because their taxes are ridiculously high. I mean, you know, governments all over the world manipulate gas prices, including here in the United States. There's huge taxes on them. There's huge taxes all over the world. I mean, and the opposite is true, too.

You know, the Venezuela situation is interesting. They just had a 20 times gas price increase. It went up 20 times what it used to be. Wow. It went from 0.5 cents a gallon to 10 cents a gallon. gallon in Venezuela. That's outrageous. They're paying, they're paying 10 cents a gallon in Venezuela now.

Yes. Why are they paying 10 cents a gallon? Because they just are so good at refining oil. No. No. The reason is because the government is subsidizing it. Yeah. In large part all the way down to almost zero.

And of course, they're upset about it. Governments manipulate these things all the time. They can do some things to make gas prices. higher. Yes, it's a global market. So it is at some level controlled by supply and demand in that way that you can't control exactly, but

long term you can. Can you imagine paying 10 cents a gallon for gas? My God. When I was just starting to drive, and this is in Montana, so gas prices were much lower than they were in other parts of the country at the time.

Because, you know, this is the late 1800s. So when I first started to drive, I was paying 28 cents a gallon. 28 cents. Wow. But even then. Even then, that's higher than Venezuela. That's almost three times the price that they're currently paying in Venezuela.

Well, up until this increase, they were paying a half a cent per gallon. Jeez. One half of one cent. If you got one gallon, how do you pay for that? Can I go change back for my pen? That's a good point. Amazing. That's really something else.

But again, you see, but this isn't a good philosophy, obviously. No, it's not. It's a country in ruins. And in some part, because of strategies like this, you try to subsidize. Yeah. Socialism doesn't work, as we all are very aware, outside of the White House. Yeah. And it's just too bad that we're in this position that we're in because this is going to, it's not just gasoline prices that are going to take a

hit and that are taking hits. It's going to be the energy prices, the heating oil prices, the natural gas. Everything that heats your home for winter is going to go up this year. And it's going to be a lot more expensive. And then they're going to tell you that climate change is getting worse because we're using all of these fossil fuels. We could have helped this situation a long time ago. but we stopped doing something that would have mitigated the problem. And that's building nuclear power plants.

It's just a real shame that because of two events, one was an actual real world thing, Three Mile Island, and the other was a Hollywood movie, China Syndrome with Jane Fonda. Between those two things, that pretty well put a stop to the nuclear energy power plants being built in America.

It scared the crap. of Americans and then the environmentalists took off with it and and we're talking about how dangerous nuclear power was and so we didn't we didn't build any more power plants and we could have been in a position right now where we're getting clean renewable energy for everybody by now we could have had we could have had just about all the renewable energy we need and then that could get us through until the solar and wind come through. But there's no alternative right now to oil, really. There's no alternative that will pick up the,

that will fill the void that would be created, that is being created by them going off of fossil fuels before we have anything to replace fossil fuels. Well, it shows two things, too. Number one, they're not motivated by the things they say they're motivated by. If you cared about the environment and you cared about emissions, you'd be wildly embracing nuclear power. It's obvious you, this would be Michael Schellenberger's make at this point.

famously he's an author. And he's not a right wing guy. No, no. He was in the environmental movement for a long time. And he's embraced nuclear energy. Patrick Moore is another guy who's sort of the same story. And so if they actually cared about the environment in emissions, they would obviously embrace nuclear power.

Well, except for the fact that Three Mile Island killed so many millions of Americans. Yeah, no, that's not true. That's not true. Three Mile Island was, in fact, the complete. opposite of a catastrophe. It was a success story. Because of the fail-safe measures they put in place for a three-mile island. It worked out pretty well. It worked out. I mean, but I mean the radiation that was released that that no, you know, gave so many Americans cancer. The concrete containment structure did just what it was designed to do, prevent radiation from escaping into

the environment. And although the reactor itself was crippled, there were no injury or death among nuclear workers or near by residence. But what you're avoiding is the radiation that did sneak out a three mile island that was the equivalent of a chest x-ray. Yes, that is the maximum impact that hit anyone. A whole chest x-ray, not just not half a chest x-ray. Which you would go and do at the doctors. That chest x-ray, that is the maximum amount of radiation.

And of course, you know, Chernobyl famously, you know, they said it was going to kill 500,000 people. and it killed, what was it, 53 or something, 54. They think there will be some deaths down the road due to cancer that was developed at that period, although it is, they don't believe it's going to be anywhere near the numbers they were saying they were going to. A lot of it was because at the time, kids drank some contaminated milk. Now, that is a decision, of course, not necessarily directly tied to the Chernobyl incident, as much as it's tied to the Soviet government who kept having. their kids in the area drink contaminated milk.

Not a good idea, obviously. However, you know, they, I mean, there are, there is a, there are scientists who say, you know what, actually the whole evacuation period process was, was as damaging as the incident. And maybe we shouldn't have evacuated that area at all. Fukushima, there's no doubt about it. Fukushima was a situation where they, there was much more damage done by the evacuation. than the actual quote unquote crisis. Now, all of this is to say it's dual,

it's sort of a dual track here. Because number one, if they actually believe the environment, they would be doing different things. If they actually believe we needed to dissolve this and it wasn't about power and all the other things, they would be embracing nuclear power. Secondarily, it also shows how dumb they are. Because if they had embraced nuclear power long ago,

it would make it so much easier for us to transition to things like electric cars. We would have unlimited supplies of energy that were at zero emissions and it would be easy to do those things. Instead, we not only have to build the infrastructure for the charging ports and all the things that they want to jam

into these new Biden bills, but in addition to that, we have to massively expand our capacity for electricity. If you put all of the cars on top of the electric grid, which is already crappy, it's going to be a major problem.

If we had updated, gone with nuclear a long time ago, we would not have those problems. It would be a much easier transition. So they've thwarted their own attempts here. Which shows not only are they lying about their motivations, they're also dumb.

So that's the summary. Yeah. And it's true, sadly. It's true. So as a result, we get, is it less than 20% of our energy comes from nuclear? I think it's... Yeah, it's a little bit less. Because they keep closing these plants down.

They just close one down in New York. Now, France is something at 80%. France. Yeah, they didn't cave like we did. Well, they have now. Have they really? Yeah, and they're saying they... Are they shutting down some of their plants? They want to reduce their...

Why would you do that? It's working great. It's working great and it's... Have you heard of a nuclear disaster in France? I certainly haven't. No. Wow. They just have...

Geez. Again, these are decisions made based on environmental activists. who who make up a new narrative every two weeks. Remember, their narrative not too long ago was biofuels. They were embracing, you know, ethanol, corn-based ethanol. That was their big push. Didn't work out real bad for them, did it. It was, it was, they were anti-nuclear.

They have now turned on large solar and wind projects as well. All over the world. They're turning against those projects that they previously are recommended. What are you to do instead? What are you going to do? They want to deconstruct civilization. A lot of them do. I mean, the real brains behind a lot of these operations, that's what their goal is.

There are certainly people who just want to be green and want to do these things and they think they're a good idea, you know. But the real brains behind these are the activists. And there is a, they want to deindustrialize the human experience. They want the stupid song. You know, they want to, what was it? A hole in the sky where a turretsy. once was. No, not that one.

Somebody's making money. That's a great one. Oh, they're paving paradise to put up a parking lot. They want that to be a legitimate governing philosophy. Hey, farmer, farmer put down your DDT. Forget about the worms. Give me the birds and bees or whatever that line is. Yes.

Yeah. Dumb. It's a dumb line. But that is what they want. That is just a song version of the society they see. And you know what? When I pull into a Walmart, when I go to a giant store that has got a giant concrete parking lot.

I don't say I wish there were flowers there. I say, thank God I can park. No. Wow, that shows what an evil bastard do you are. I say, I wish they would add more parking so I could get closer to the stupid store. Well, they have plenty of parking. It's just that it's all for handicapped people. So that's why you're not able to park there close to the store.

Now, nuclear power generation generally is not a high, there's not a high toll of life typically associated with it. And that's the nuclear power thing is, of course, just scaremongering.

But zero people have died when it comes to nuclear power here in the United States. States, yeah. However, between, this is a little bit of an old stat, so this number is probably a little higher now, but between 1970 and 2010, 35 people died associated with wind turbines in the United States. Really? Now, I know, I remember watching Indiana Jones. Oh, it's got to be a lot higher than that now. It's got to be.

In the last 11 years? I mean, I'm sure it's gone up. We have a lot more wind power now here in the U.S. Yeah. No, that does not, again, people die exploring. obviously we've seen people die in oil, you know, drilling accidents we've seen certainly a lot of

people die from coal because the Chinese government's like, oh wait, were you done drilling? Okay, just seal the mine up with all the people inside. That is, so people do die when it comes to particularly coal mining is pretty common around the world. However, nuclear power

not so common. And wind does have a death toll to it. Now, of course, this says nothing about the poor birds, which the only thing worse than Thanksgiving for birds are wind turbines. Don't they say millions of birds die from these every

year? I don't know what the actual number. It's huge. It's a really big number. It's an uncomfortable number. Yeah, it is. It is. And when you see the turbines, have you ever driven through Oklahoma, parts of Oklahoma? They got wind turbines all

over the place. If you drive through like parts of Texas towards West Texas, wind turbines everywhere. First of all, they're unsightly. Secondly, they kill birds. I don't know how the environmentalists are okay with it all. How is that all right?

And nobody wants these turbines in their own backyard. Nobody wants that. I think they look kind of cool sometimes, honestly, when they're in the right setting. Would you want it in your backyard? No, I would not want it in my backyard, no. Okay. But I do think they're, they are kind of cool looking.

Across the street. Let's say it's across the street from your backyard. Absolutely. You'd be okay with that? Yes, I want them all right there. I mean, I think you're driving in the middle of a field. I mean, that's not where they put them typically. Now, we have seen they put them in neighborhoods at times with real problems.

They've caused real problems there. But if they're in the middle of nowhere, look, I don't think wind power is the enemy per se. If eventually it becomes competitive and they can find a way to make it reliable, great. But right now it's not there. We've always said that. If you've got an alternative to the fossil fuel, okay, fine. let's do it. But there's nothing that can fill the void. They think about 300,000 birds annually killed by wind turbines. However, 3 billion birds annually

killed by cats. This is the Glenback. I have some good news. It's going to help make your house look amazing. Black Friday starts right now at blinds.com with up to 45% off sitewide.

but you learn and then you identify whether it's worth protesting, then you protest if it happens to clear that bar. Yeah, but what if I just hear a friend that there's been a massive injustice and I need to run out and support that friend as we go out and protest. You mean like the feelings known?

Everybody on the Kyle Rittenhouse case, for example. In media. Exactly. No, you learn about the case. Then you comment on it. Weird. Or you protest it if it's worthy a protest. That would have been a really good process

for the president to pay attention to. Right? Because he didn't learn and then he spoke. So you could really do that process with speaking out as a politician as well because he didn't learn and then he started running his mouth off on what a white supremacist Kyle Rittenhouse is. Maybe we should do a learn then speak. The order is important because we have learn then vote. The order is important. Learn than speak is a pretty good. That's a good safety tip as well. I do like that. You can go to shop.blazemedia.com. If you use the code Stu 20 or

Pat 20 or Glenn 20, you can get 20% off your merchandise now. Kind of a Black Friday holiday sale. And if you have someone who needs to hear the message, you know, learn then protest. The order is important. Maybe you could pick

one of those up for the holidays. Okay. So Jen Saki was asked about Biden calling Rittenhouse a white supremacist. And here's what she had to say about that. Would the president ever apologize to the acquitted Kenosha shooter, Kyle Rittenhouse, for suggesting online and on TV that he is a white supremacist.

Well, let's be clear what we're talking about here. This is about a campaign video released last year that used President Trump's own words during a debate as he refused to condemn white supremacists and militia groups. And President Trump, as we know from history, and as many of you covered, didn't just refuse to condemn militia groups on the debate stage. He actively encouraged them throughout his presidency. So, you know, what we've seen are the tragic consequences of that. When people think it's okay to take the law into their own hands,

instead of allowing law enforcement to do its job, and the president believes in condemning hatred, division, and violence. That's exactly what was done in that video. But if you're saying that it was just a campaign video, it wasn't. The president also gave an interview where he said this written house was part of a militia coming out of Illinois. Have you ever heard this president referring to Trump to say one negative thing about white supremacists? These are all things

none of this was proven in the trial. And Kyle Rittenhouse is saying that the president had actual malice in defaming his character. Is that what happened here? The president spoke to the verdict last week. He has obviously condemned

the hatred and division and violence. We've seen around the country by groups like the proud boys and groups that that individual has posed in photos with. But beyond that, I'll leave it to his comments around the verdict. Despicable. These people are the worst people to ever govern this nation. These are despicable people. She obviously wouldn't answer the question, which is, is the president going to, is he ever going to apologize for referring to Kyle Rittenhouse as a white supremacist when he

isn't one when there's no evidence of any of that being the case well president trump blah blah blah blah it's just it's outrageous it's wow i like the at the distinction however that jensaki tried to make there that it wasn't joe biden it was joe biden's campaign what what kind of distinction is that it's none because don't you have to approve of the campaign material i'm joe Biden and I approve this message, right? That's how that works. Yeah. Now, this was released online, I guess, and I don't, I mean, I don't know if that's the only,

the only time that they talked about this and called Kyle Rittenhouse a white supremacist. Well, no. Peter Ducey named another instance where he, he brought it up. And it's, it's, it's been stunning to me. What a great job Peter Ducey has done. He's been really good. This seems to be the case over and over again. Every Democratic administration, there's one journalist who actually ask tough questions.

Yeah. And this time, I guess it's going to be Peter Ducey. Certainly has been so far. Yeah. And he's just about the only one. Every once in a while, somebody else will step up. Yep. But almost every day, it's Peter Ducey.

I mean, and this is an easy one. You know, like, look, there's no reason. You can't just say, look, we had information early and, you know, maybe we should shouldn't have commented on it at all. And obviously, that's the right answer. But they will not own up to anything. They won't own up to a single thing. They take no responsibility for anything that ever comes out of their mouth or any policy that's gone bad, including up to and including Afghanistan, which was such an unmitigated disaster that our allies knew it.

Democrats know it. Everybody knows it. And they won't even own up to that. To them, that was an unqualified success. And I'll remind people that Gen Saki works for you. Gen Saki does not work for Biden's campaign.

Jen Saki does not even work for Joe Biden, really. That is a position that was designed to help communicate to the American people what's going on and the understanding of the administration a little bit better.

How do we pass this information? We can't have the president out there doing press conferences every day. What if we put, We have a press secretary that comes out and helps people understand what is going on. Instead, it is turned into a role on both sides of the aisle that is just your really terrible PR person. A person who constantly lies to you all the time. A person who, you know, is like a hundred times worse than the shadiest tobacco executive PR person that comes out and says,

absolutely there's no tie at all to lung cancer. That person is a saint compared to the role that the White House press secretary has turned into. It is just despicable and you're paying for it. It should change. You know, you want to have the administration hire someone, an outside PR person who can do their spin for them, fine. But it should not be a part of our government.

It should not be something that we're paying for. it should not be the White House press secretary. The White House press secretary should bore you to tears because they just give you statements and they try to give you the actual truth. That's the role it's supposed to be. It's not supposed to be like this. No, it's not. But we've gotten to the point where there's such low life scumbags that when she's asked about the president calling an 18 year old kid, a white supremacist, what she does is ignore the question about the president. and turn it around on the 18-year-old kid by saying that we've denounced groups like he posed for pictures with. Oh, gosh. That is despicable. The kid didn't know if they're proud boys. Nobody really knows if they're proud boys or not.

The media has claimed that he went to a bar two days after he was released on bail with his mom and some other friends. And that's legal to do in Wisconsin. I don't know if he drank or not because I don't think that's legal. for an 18 year old, but you can go to the bar with your mom apparently when you're 18. So he did. And at that bar, there were a couple of guys that wanted a selfie with him, and he did it. I mean, he didn't, these are not his friends. He doesn't hang out with them. This is not his group. He doesn't associate with it. And yet she's trying to paint him as the white supremacist because

he posed for pictures with with proud boys. And I love to see that standard apply to Democratic politicians. They've posed, they have meetings with Lewis Farrakhan, right? They meet with the head of Syria. Anti-Semite. Not to mention. Racist. Let's go through Joe Biden's greeting lines and pick every person out of there and will fairly apply their views to Joe Biden. That's a really rational way of doing things. It's insane. By the way, we should also point out that Kyle Rittenhouse says he was there because his attorneys told him to go. And the early attorneys, which were later fired, including Lynn Wood. And if you're worried about the multiple trillions of dollars we're spending currently, you can give a nice big thank you note to Lynn Wood, who went around Georgia telling everyone not to vote. So thanks a lot for that.

That was a fantastic strategy. And it worked out really well. Because with even one of those two races, we wouldn't have these multiple trillions of dollars and all of the Green New Deal nonsense. and all the crap that's flying out the door right now. We wouldn't have it with even one of those two. And of course, now it seems to be acceptable. We've seen many, many people in Congress or Republicans across the board say, okay, Lynn would obviously not, this is not a good direction to go.

But at the time, many people embraced his nonsense. And people in Georgia... I don't think people knew who he really was. No. People thought he was a Republican operative, thought he was a conservative kind of guy. Not at all. It's the entire history.

He's working for the left. And I don't know if he's just gone completely insane. There's also an argument there on that. There kind of is. He may have just been a Democrat who's gone insane and now just says all sorts of crazy things. But because he had a lot of attention and he is a high profile lawyer that does have a legitimately impressive legal career, he was involved early on with Rittenhouse. because they were able to raise a lot of money.

Yeah. And they brought him in. And as Rittenhouse said later on, he, I mean, he said in this in the Tucker Carlson. He did that he was, he was raising money more for himself

than he was for, for Kyle. And according to Kyle Rittenhouse, Kyle was kept in jail for three months because they wanted to continue raising money off of the fact that he was in jail and then keep it. Now, of course, I, you know,

I don't know all the inner workings of this, but, you know, there's no motivation for Rittenhouse to be bashing his own lawyers. he won. Right. Now, those people were thrown off the case early on. And a lot of that was, as Kyle's later attorney said, we wanted to get Kyle out of jail.

We wanted to get him so he was not spending the rest of his life in prison. We, this was not a call. We were not trying to make this us against the system or us trying to enrich ourselves. We wanted to get Kyle off because obviously it was self-defense. And that worked. the other side of this was much uglier and there's all sorts of ramifications but one of the ramifications was

that one of the attorneys, Kyle Rittenhouse himself says, told them to go to this bar and told him to meet with these guys and take pictures with these guys. That's Kyle Rittenhouse now. He's 17 years old. And that turned out to be

something the left is beating him with now. AAA 727 BECK more patent stew for Glenn coming up. All right. If you haven't checked out RECTech yet, But you got to try. You got to try it. The time is now to check out rec tech.

And Thanksgiving Eve. Nice to have a Wednesday that's, it really feels like a Friday. And is sort of like, for most Americans, I think it is kind of Friday, right? When we have a four-day weekend coming up, that's pretty awesome.

Well, pretty awesome. You know, they have this thing, and they do this every year where some big corporation comes out and says, we will not open. On Thanksgiving.

We shall not. Target is doing it this year. Yes. We're not going to do it. Because they're so woke. Yeah. Target is so woke. And we will never open.

I never understand this argument. Number one, you know, they're like, oh, you should spend time with your family. Well, what if your family sucks? Okay. What if your family sucks? What if you don't want to spend time with your family? Do you have a choice whether to do that or should Target tell me? should society shame me into staying in my home with my family if I don't want to

and they're like well what about the people who work there well you know what ask the people who work in retail if they want to make double time or time and a half to work on a holiday a lot of times they say yes they do and you know whose choice that should be theirs not yours I can't stand this idea that you're oh we have to shut down all of society and you're a bad, you're bad if you allow people to go out and and shop. I remember growing up, my family

loved, it was mainly Black Friday, but like they loved going out. It was a family event. They would go out. My grandma and my aunt would go out and shop all the time. It was like something they loved. It was a tradition they loved doing together. Yeah. And now these corporations are like, oh, well, we're so woke, we're not going to open. Because we

care so much about our employees. Bull crap. You care about the publicity you're getting out of this. I can't stand that. Yeah. And you're right about, I mean, Target is the biggest purveyor of bull crap right now. Just stop. Stop.

I mean, like, I know you're woke and I know you support every single cause in the left. I know it's so great, including women being subjected to men coming into the bathroom if they identify as women. Everything. Every single cause you support. That's great. And now you're not going to make your employees work. That's beautiful. But like, oh God, gas station employees, they all have to work.

No one cares about them. No one cares about grocery store employees. No one cares about them at all. It's just, I guess, like, you're not allowed to go buy gifts for your family on Thanksgiving. Go ahead to these other places. It's fine. Bars are open. You can go get yourself a hammered down at the bar.

That's totally fine. But don't let people go buy a toy now. So we have a bunch of stuff coming up this hour, including more details on the smash and grab situation that's going on across the country. Really well. Really well in San Francisco. The pushback against it? Yeah, and they've gotten right on top of it. We'll tell you about that in a few minutes because it's pretty well fixed. Oh, good, good, good. Yeah. Also, a controversy with actress Kristen Bell.

Really? Yes. She did something terrible. The person from the, is it Enterprise? commercials. I don't know what commercials she's in. She's an actress, though. She's relatively famous. She's married to a Dax.

Sheppard. Dax Shepherd. That's right. Not Dax. That's right. Not Dax. Shepard. Just in case you were thinking it was Dax, which is a name. It's Dax, which is also a name.

A name I'm seeing a lot more lately. Both are names. Yeah. All right. We'll get to that and lots more. Mm-hmm. On the radio. Broadcast.

Black Friday is one of the biggest shopping days and one of the biggest opportunities for scammers. Some of the most common scams include. buying a gift online that never arrives. Sellers demanding payment with gift cards, fake shopping websites, and fake delivery notifications.

Kind of a frustrating situation in San Francisco. A San Francisco retailer is calling crime in the city atrocious after thieves recently targeted luxury retailers in other stores with mass looting over a period of days. Gump's owner, John Chakas, joined Fox News and talked about the crime wave. And he said, my concern as a business person is you don't have a functioning environment anymore. when you have people outside of the city who are afraid to come to the city because of rampant crime and grit and filth. Man, I don't know how he can say that

when the problem is virtually solved. Really? Yeah, we told you the story about, I mean, he was talking about an incident, I think, at one of the malls, one of the really nice malls in the area, in the Bay area where like 30 or 40 people came in. And then there was the Nordstrom situation

where 80 to 100 people pulled up in 20 different cars and all rushed into Nordstrom and... They had their license plates covered. Yes. Tocanfuls of things and then all left. They've already caught three of them. Three. Three of the looters.

How many? Three of what? 80 to 100. So approximately three to five percent. Yes. Are behind bars right now. and so problem solved. Now they'll probably be immediately released once they

I'm sure they will because in San Francisco, I mean, think about what's going on there. You've got the, he talks about the filth because you've got the piles of human waste on the streets and sidewalks that we've talked about before. It's so bad that they're paying people $180,000 a year

to go around and clean up the human poop on the streets and sidewalks. It's a pretty good gig, if you can get it. No, it's not. Except for the yinkiness of it. It's not worth it. It's not worth it. You wouldn't do the 100.

No. I wouldn't either. No, thank you. I wouldn't either. You know, it's fascinating to watch this happen. I mean, cities like this. San Francisco's a great city, too. It's a beauty.

It used to be. It used to be a beautiful city that was fun to go to. And there's a lot to do there and there's a lot to see. And it was, it was just a nice environment. now you got the human feces, you got the homeless over running the city, the mass theft going on where people are just afraid for their lives and couple that with the fact that San Francisco has laws that enable all of this stuff. Yeah. They said that, you know, theft isn't going to be prosecuted if it's under $1,000. Incredible.

So you've emboldened all of these people to pull off these kinds of thefts. and I mean some of them are winding up with much more than a thousand dollars worth of stuff as they rush out of these stores. Especially like they're going to like Louis Vuitton where one bag is worth much more than that. Last time the Super Bowl was held in San Francisco, we were both out there for it to cover and stuff. And it was sad. And it was a 2016. February 7th, 2016. It was the game where the Broncos beat the Panthers.

was Peyton Manning's last game. And walking around the city, first of all, it's a beautiful city in many places and it's really a cool place to go. However, I smelled things that I will never forget. Yeah. And we saw things that I'll never forget. Yes, it's really bad.

And this was years ago now. That's five years ago. Yeah, yeah. Almost six. And we were staying. I don't know if you weren't staying at the same places. as we were, but we were staying in one of Nicholas Cage's old homes. That's right.

And we were told it was like a $17 million place. And it was nice. It was nice. I mean, it wouldn't be $17 billion in Texas. But in San Francisco, apparently it was. So anyway, he's in a beautiful neighborhood. It's really nice with beautiful homes, million dollar plus homes. And there was feces all over the sidewalks near there.

Just down the street from Nicholas Page's home. Piles of. We should point out that it was Nicholas Cage who provided it. But no. The feces. Yeah, that's not. That's a whole other story, though. I wasn't going to go there.

No, it's true. It's all over the place. And remember, this is an area. The reason why I bring up the Super Bowl is because the NFL has a way of managing the areas around their Super Bowls. They put a lot of resources. They put a lot of pressure. They got a lot of power. make sure an area is cleaned up as good as it can possibly be cleaned up around the facilities

where all of these people flying in from all over the world are walking around. As it was put in the movie concussion, I don't know if you saw this. Did you see the movie concussion? I did not. I've read a lot. This is an entity that owns a day of the week. That's how powerful they are. That's not true.

They own a day of the week. They don't. Kind of on Sunday. Sort of. Yeah. In some ways. In some ways. in some ways.

However, I will, I can get into that argument another time. I'm highly skeptical of it. But beyond, beyond all of this, it shows that it's impossible to,

to keep all of this in line, right? San Francisco smelled like San Francisco smelled, even when the Super Bowl was there. That was five years ago. With all the resources applied to it. It's worse now. I'm sure,

much worse. San Francisco is a book that Michael Schellenberger wrote. I got to read that. You got to read it. You got to have them on. It's a book that he wrote about how,

how liberal cities get ruined by progressives. And it's funny, this is the second time we've brought him up today. We were talking about him. He also wrote a book about the climate and all kind of the alarmism around that. Again, this guy's not a hardcore liberal. He's actually, but he is on the left of the spectrum. For sure, he's a liberal. And he used to be a hardcore climate activist.

And I think still pretty much is. He just wants to clear up some of the lies that are being told. Yeah. don't panic. Yeah. Essentially. And a lot of these things, understand what the real threat is and try to deal with reality rather than this bizarre

cartoon they keep trying to paint for us. He's not for the fear mongering what's going on. In some ways, the opposite is true in San Francisco, the book he wrote, which is he's saying, like, wait a minute, this is a problem.

This isn't something we should blow off. You know, he talks about how, you know, drug legalization, you talk about this, this idea of drug decriminalization. And you hear about, places like Portugal that have done it with some success.

And we should just do that here. That's what the argument always is. So he decided to go and talk to the people who head up the drug program in Portugal. That's what he does. Yeah. He did the same thing with the climate people. He went to the people who supposedly said these outrageous things. And it turned out they didn't say these outrageous things.

Right. And so he talked to the people who are running that whole thing in Portugal. He talked to people all over the continent of Europe. who are running these programs that American activists say their ideas are based on. We should just do what Portugal is doing, right? And he talked to them, and one of the things he identified as a real problem in San Francisco and other big progressive cities is that we've now taken away all consequence. So if you want to steal less of a thousand dollars, you go ahead. Go ahead.

If you want to put a tent up in a public place and block people walking. Go ahead. Go ahead. Just live there. Tent City, fine. Every once in a while, attack the people walking by. Go ahead. We're not going to do anything about it. And we'll release you immediately. We've spent a ton of time this week talking about this guy in Wisconsin that ran over all of these people at the parade who I have it right here, Pat. This is it. The 50 pages? 50 pages. This is before the parade.

50 pages of charges on this guy. since 1999. It's unbelievable. Fifty pages, including Tier 2 sexual assault of a minor, which he admits to have doing. He just didn't know she was 16, Pat. Of course, this happens all the time.

He didn't know. Well, she looked maybe 16 and a half, 17. Or maybe 15. Or maybe 15. Just not 16. He didn't really specify which way he was going on that. So, you know, and they take, they took in this guy

because he ran over with the same vehicle you saw speeding by in the videos he ran over his baby mama and left a tire track on her leg literally in the report it says a tire track was seen on her left pant leg

he ran over a woman intentionally three weeks ago and then was released on a thousand dollars bond and so this is happening all over the country and he identifies a million different areas where this is occurring but he talked to the guy

and I think it was Portugal and he said hey like what happens if someone is caught doing drugs like what's what happens here? You guys have decriminalized it do they just release them immediately how does that work? He said no

they are forced to go into a treatment program or they go to jail so there they are giving a choice to treatment to therapy to real consequences or they go to prison just like the evil conservatives want it to be done here supposedly.

Now, who pays for the state? Does the state pay for the treatment? Yeah, the state pays for it. And, you know, he talks about this with mental health as well, where, you know, people get, they have major mental health problems.

They get released over and over and over and over and over again. And out into the street, you know, they might give them medication for a couple of days, stabilize them, and then release them again. Like, well, what good does this do? And it makes, makes these cities impossible to deal with for regular people who just want to

frequent a small business, for example. It's really interesting because two New York Times journalists, have you read this story? You read about that? I did not Jay Leno. You did it in the paper? Two New York Times journalists set out to prove that blue states do better than red states.

Oh, yeah, this is amazing. And they found the exact opposite, much to their surprise and chagrin. They set out to explore what happens when Democrats control all of the levels of power in a state and local government across the country. And they were shocked. I mean, they could have just called us. We would have told them. Right.

Come on. It's not this is not brain surgery here. But they discovered blue states, not red states are the problem. Had better income inequality numbers. Yes. Had all sorts of different measures. And it was interesting because the video, which. is a must watch. It's a 15 minute video. And I would say it's a must watch. Yeah, from these two guys

for the New York Times. And it really is incredible. But when you really look at it, what they're arguing for essentially is for more like aOC based policies. They're saying they don't, they don't put their money where their mouth is essentially. They say they want a quality. They're hypocritical. They're hypocritical is what they're criticizing them on. They say they want equality, but they won't let poor people move into their neighborhoods. It's that type of stuff. And it's all true. Without question, it's true.

But what they, yeah, they say liberal hypocrisy, not Republican opposition is fueling American inequality. That's amazing. Yeah, you seriously, if you have not seen this video yet, we'll tweet it out. I want to see that. At Stu Does America. We'll make sure we get, we'll send that out here if we can here soon. But it really is an incredible piece. And I can't believe the New York Times.

actually I was blown away when I saw the article. I could, what is going on at the New York Times? It's a little fairness and common sense and I don't know, some actual journalism. Yeah, it's a type of thing you'd hear from, from us on our side. Like, hey, you keep saying your pro pro free market, but look at X, Y, and Z what you're doing. We talk about that stuff all the time. And look, it's important for that to be pointed out. Their solutions probably would not be the solutions we would choose.

but just noting their hypocrisy is such a massive step in the right direction. It's nice to see. It really is. AAA 727 BECK. Every day in this country, the left is doing its best to make sure the next generation of kids, that's your kids, your grandkids, that they don't know where they came from. They don't understand liberty and American exceptionalism. That's what we are fighting every single day.

The left's bad ideas with the good ideas, but who's teaching the kids? but who's teaching the good ideas? This is precisely what the Tuttle Twins books do. They teach your kids and your grandkids about American values in a fun and interesting way. The books are incredibly important to share with your kids or your grandkids.

Just to put a fine point on the two New York Times journalists who went out to prove that blue states do better than red and found the exact opposite. They write, blue states are where the housing crisis is located.

Blue states are where the disparities in education funding are the most dramatic. Blue states are the places where tens of thousands of homeless people are living on the streets. Blue states are the places where economic inequality is increasing most quickly in this country. This is not a problem of not doing well enough. It is a situation where blue states are the problem. I mean, that's fascinating. That's fascinating. Come from the New York Times.

It didn't come from Fox News or the Wall Street Journal. It's the New York Times. One of the things they talk about is education. And you hear this all the time. You know, evil conservatives want school choice. They don't want inner city kids to get any sort of education at all. What they find, of course, is that in red states, the situation is much better. And in blue states, it's really where the problem is.

And when they control everything, it gets really bad. one of the areas they identify as a major problem is in Chicago, and they talk about the way these schools are funded. Now, if you were to take all of the money in Chicago from all the people, all the taxes, from all these million dollar apartments and all of those things, and pull it all together and then distribute it evenly based on population, you would have much higher quality schools in low-income areas.

Okay? However, what they do in Chicago, ago instead is take the areas where the multi-million dollar apartments lie, take those taxes and keep them in the exact same community. Instead of distributing it to low-income communities, they make giant, you've talked about this problem in states all across the country, Pat, before, where these high schools now have like multiple arboretums. Yeah.

It's like they just spend and spend and spend beautiful stadiums, beautiful pools, beautiful gyms, all this. And then there's right down the street, a mile or two away in Chicago is a dilapidated school where it's probably unhealthy for the kids to even be inside. God only knows what they're being taught in these places. But

you know, even the structure of the school is bad. Now, for some reason, these multi-millionaires that all vote blue in Chicago don't want their tax dollars going to lower income communities that are still inside Chicago. I'm not talking about

sending it halfway across the country, halfway across the state in their own cities. They'd rather have a nicer pool in their kids' school than they would have even mildly decent accommodations for lower income people. Surprise. You mean they're in it for themselves? Shocking. It's a shocking development. They're selfish pigs in many cases?

Shocking. It is stunning. It's just, and they pointed out as if it's just, they just highlight the hypocrisy. Right. And of course, not that they're just bad policies to begin with. Right. And, you know, there's all sorts of problems with this long term. But this is an amazing thing to see from the New York Times.

And it's important to see from the New York Times. You know, I've made this, I've mentioned this quote two times this week already, where the New York Times noted that there have been no documented cases of outdoor transmission of COVID outside of close conversation in the entire world since the beginning. of the pandemic. Now, I can say that... It's incredible. That's an amazing stat. It's an amazing stat. It's something of it I could say, but they quoted a scientist saying it in the New York Times, and it, you know, gathers a lot more credibility than just some, you know, dope on the radio mentioning it.

And while the Times can still do good work, and sometimes they do, actually. I mean, they have a lot more on the resource side than, you know, anybody else. So they can do all sorts of things that are good. Usually they apply it towards e-fell. Phil. Yes. But they could do real good with it. And sometimes they do. And this video is an example of it.

I got to see that. I got to watch the whole thing because the article is stunning. I bet the video is even more amazing. AAA 727 B-E-C-K. More Pat and Stufer Glenn coming up. There are a lot of great things about climbing up into your 50s. You're allowed to wear socks and sandals and nobody bats an eye. That's always important.

It's easier to trick the wait staff at Denny's to give you the senior discount. And of course, you'll finally get to join one of those benefit groups. you've heard about. Now, there are several you could join, but I recommend AMAC. It's the Association of Mature American Citizens, and it's over 2 million members strong and counting. The benefits are amazing, things like insurance discounts, a roadside assistance program, A member's only credit card, travel benefits, phone plans, dental plans, auto loans. They have everything you could need. But even more important is their advocacy. AMAC members have played a significant role in stopping the passage of House Resolution 1, the Pelosi Federal takeover of all elected.

election legislation. That would be a catastrophe if it went through. And they're going to be asked to do the same to stop Senate passage of House Resolution for another terrible bill trying to establish federal control of all elections. So join AMAC for the advocacy, benefits, and information. But most importantly, join because America needs you. Join today at amac.us slash beck.amac.us. It's amac.us.us slash Beck. You know what? Christmas is right around the corner.

Here's how bad things are economically in this country. Even though President Brain Dead is claiming, it's really, the economy's way better than it was.

The other people who are here. left it really bad, but we've made it really good. The good thing about inflation is sometimes you get more money from your employer. Really? Is that a thing? Yeah, because I remember seeing the stat of this. It was something like pay is up 4.6% and the cost of living is up 26%. So that's really nicely compensating for it. We're coming out ahead on that, I think.

I'm doing well. I'm not good at math, but I think we're coming out ahead. Is that right? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think so. If you reverse those numbers, it looks really good. And then you got the empty store shelves, and then you got the high gas prices, and then you have the fact that nobody can get employees enough to do their business the way they want to do it,

and for the amount of hours they want to do it. I had lunch at Taco Bell. This might surprise some people because I'm such a healthy eater. I think this will blow people's minds yesterday, you know, on a lark, just because I hadn't done it in. so long. Was that salad place you always go to closed? No. No, that's what makes it so unusual. I made a choice to go to Taco Bell yesterday. And that's the first time I've done that since last week. Wow. Yeah. The entire week you went without Taco Bell until you went to Taco Bell. How old were you last week?

I don't think, were you as I got last week? Yeah. Now it's much more recent, of course, than when the guy in Wisconsin ran over his baby mama. Right. That was only three, that was three weeks. ago. So it's more recent than that. More recent than that. Okay. Yes. But still, a way long time ago in Pat eating at Taco Bell years. Yes. That was about 17 years on that scale. So anyway, I pull up and I'm seeing the sign and they got like a million signs from mask wearing to I lost dogs. I don't know, but the most prominent sign. Lost dogs? Yeah. It wasn't the Icaro Taco Bell dog, was it? No. No, okay.

No, it was not. So in the middle of all this is this big bright sign that says, hiring now. Work today. Get paid today. Daily income. And I thought, what? You're paying people daily? So like at the end of the day, you get your, I don't know if you're working it.

And they said up to $15 an hour. Well, it was $14.95 actually. So if you work eight hours that day, they're going to pay you, you know, $125 or whatever that amounts to in my head. So I guess they just do that out every single day. That's how desperate they are for employees right now. Just show up today. Show up today. We'll give you gold bullion.

Everybody who signs up today gets a Cadillac Escalade. Oh, okay. I mean, it's really amazing. It is. I'm surprised not I'm playing in Bitcoin yet. Make this whole process even easier. They probably are at some places. It's really incredible.

And I will say this. If this country and this government has one clearly defined constitutional role, it's making sure we have guaranteed access to Taco Bell. Thank you. If they start closing down because they can't get employees. It's not worth living. Revolution. Frankly, yes.

Revolution in this country. It was Thomas Jefferson who said that the tree of liberty is watered on a, daily basis when Taco Bell is in danger. Yeah, the Tree of Liberty is watered by nacho cheese. Gross was the title of the essay. And he was right. And he was right. He was right.

Again, they can pull him out of the city hall in New York City all you want, but he was right on that one. He was. You know, we can say he was wrong on other things, but he was right on that. It's amazing. You know, I went to a sports bar. This is now a few, a few weeks ago. And we kept trying to go to the same sports bar with my son.

It was always jam-packed and then we couldn't get in. And, you know, I tried to put in the, I was just craving this one thing there. And they had, they had closed the reservations. I couldn't even get in past, I don't remember what the time was like 8.30. I'm like, well, it's a sports bar. Obviously, the sporting event was still on until 11. You know, you go in. And so eventually we got in because we went in super early like, you know, a couple of weeks later.

And I asked the guy like, what is going on? We couldn't get any reservation. He goes, well, the reason is we're closing at 9 p.m. Oh, because they don't have the employees to keep going. Yeah, because they can only do one shift today. Yeah. So they have to combine lunch and dinner. And so they just closed at night.

Again, it's a sports bar. There's an NFL game on. Yeah. And they just have to close. And that's in Texas. In Texas. And that's a year and a half into this pandemic. It's incredible.

Wow. When will this ever end? I don't know. I mean, it's slower than you'd want. Again, we've mentioned this this week and that we have seen improvements in some areas. You know, certainly a lot of the restrictions have lifted. If you're in a red state, it probably feels like normal. I will say this to me at this point in when it comes to pandemic restrictions, it just feels like normal life now.

And it has for a long time here. It does. With the exception of what we're talking about right now. Just the hiring situation. I don't know if that's pure pandemic stuff. Right. I think it's associated with the pandemic, but I'm saying restriction-wise. Like I-restriction-wise in Texas.

I don't know if this is like, sometimes I say this to my friends and they sound like it sounds like a foreign planet. But let me explain to you what it's like in Texas right now. When you want to do something, you do it. Uh-huh. That's the whole story. You just do whatever you want, whenever you want. Yeah, but after the mayor okay's it, right? You got to call him.

No. No. The only differences I would say, Pat. Huh. And tell me if you could think of anything. anything else. If you travel on a plane, you have to, of course, put on the mask and you have all that stuff. But that's, you know, a little bit separate, obviously, than the state policy. And there are, there's some number of businesses in which people are still wearing masks.

It depends on where you go. Like, it seems like the corporate-owned companies still have maybe a mask mandate as a corporate policy. And so their employees are wearing them, not the, not the people walking in, which is, of course, completely absurd. But they are, they are doing that a little bit here and there. I mean, less than 50% of places, though, I would say. You know, you still have occasional straggler people who are wearing them because they choose to wear them. But I mean, that's basically the only difference. Indoor

events, packed houses, all just normal and has been normal for a long time. At times, we've done the show and I have felt weird about it because I can't relate to you and your weird world you're

living in in California. I don't know. I remember it from March of 2020. Completely different. Yeah, totally different. And so those restrictions that still apply in some of these areas are just strange. You know, to me, honestly, it seems like a foreign

country. And what has developed around the country is a sort of two-tiered society where you live in a blue state with all these restrictions and you have to live a life designated to you

by the state. Where, you're in Texas, you're in Florida, you're in Arizona, largely, generally speaking, you don't deal with any of that stuff. And what has happened in this time period, which is now lasted, you know, close to two years has been people flocking from California, from New York, from Illinois, from Michigan, from a lot of these northern states and blue states, two places like Texas, two places like Arizona, two places like Florida. And that, that, you know, and that, has, people only have so much patience for this. As Joe Biden once bravely said, our patience is running thin.

And that is what the American people have said. There's an, I mean, we've been, this is like the new, this, this hour brought to you by the New York Times, which has decided to run two or three rational pieces in the last six years. And they're all hitting us today. This is today, an opinion piece in the New York Times, entitled. Everyone's moving to Texas. Here's why. How on earth this is running in the New York Times? I don't know.

But here it is. And now they, of course, identify strange. I would argue strange criteria as to why you would move, including, you know, obviously things like jobs

are a big, big concern. Also, lower climate risks. In Texas, there's lower climate risk? Yeah. that apparently does.

Okay. Well, this is my favorite one, though. Racial diversity. Now, I find it to be somewhat racist to pick a place to live based on racial diversity. If you are making a decision based on skin color, you're doing life wrong. Okay? Yeah. Don't make decisions based on skin color ever in your entire life.

If you are making decisions based on skin color, whether you're saying, I want to live next to all white people. or I don't want to live next to all white people, you're doing life wrong. You should choose based on other metrics. However, racial diversity, it's interesting, would you like me to give you the top cities in America for racial diversity according to the New York Times? Yes.

I will start at the bottom list. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Wait, two, three, four, five, six, seven. They've got to top seven for some reason. Number seven. Richardson, Texas, right nearby us. Yes, that's in the Dallas, Fort Worth Metroplex. Yes.

Number six. Okay. Do you have a drum or something? A little drum roll? Would make it a little more dramatic, wouldn't it? Number six. Carrollton, Texas. Okay.

Which is also the DFW Metro place. Yeah, right down the street, basically. Okay. Number five is Elk Grove, California. So California makes the list. Number five. Let me give it a little fanfare. At number five?

California is, yes, slipped in at number five. I think that's true. The number four, most diverse city in America, according to the New York Times. Yes. Frisco, Texas. Oh, my gosh. Which is also right down the road from where we're sitting. Wow.

Okay. The number three, most diverse city in America, according to the New York Times. McKinney, Texas. Which is right next to Frisco. Right next to Frisco. Right next to Frisco. About 45 minutes away from where we're sitting. However.

All right. Oh, boy. It's going to, we're going to change it up. Okay. We're going to change it up. The number two, most diverse city in America is... Yes. Wait a minute.

Hang on. I got it. Why don't you just drum? Why did it take you so long? Number two, most diverse city in America, according to the New York Times, is Irving, Texas, which is where we're sitting. Right now. Yeah. Irving, Texas.

I like it. Fascinating part about this is, for some reason, the blaze, a white supremacist network, chose to locate themselves in the most diverse city in America, or second most diversity in America. I think we have an actual even split, don't we of the, I think it's 25% black, 25% Hispanic, 25% Asian and other and 25% white.

I believe that is the breakout of Irving, Texas. It's a perfectly diverse mix. It's weird how we. have chosen to go to a place surrounded, by the way, also by Richardson, Carrollton, Frisco, McKinney, Irving. And the Blaze decided to... It's amazing. Where is...

Is that the same? Is that true with all the other major media networks? You know, I don't think so. No. Because I don't see... I don't believe it is. I don't see anywhere where the New York Times is or Atlanta where CNN is that says that's the most diverse. Okay, number one...

Number one, most diverse place. Number seven, Richardson, Texas. Number six, Carrollton, Texas. Number five. Elk Grove. California, number four, Frisco, Texas, number three, McKinney, Texas, number two, Irving, Texas, and the number one, most diverse city in America, according to the New York Times. Yes, is?

Plano, Texas. Right next to Frisco, which is right next to McKinney, which is right next to Irving, and Carrollton and Richardson, and, wow. Isn't that incredible? That's incredible. We are told, wow. Once again, that Texas, Red States. they hate their diversity, yet six of the top seven most diverse cities in America, according to the New York Times, are within it.

We could be there and have Taco Bell in one of these cities within 20 minutes. Yes. Almost all of them. Amazing. Amazing. Amazing. They also have affordability, which. Do we do well in that too?

Yes. You're going to be shocked to hear. The other place that seems to do well, actually, in these measures, is Minnesota. Number seven is a Minnesota. Number six, Mesquite, Texas. Number five, Grand Prairie, Texas, right down the road. Number four, Arlington, Texas, right down the road. Jeez.

Then Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. Then number two, a most affordable city in America, ULIS Texas, which is right down the road. And then Garland, Texas, which is number one. Again, all those Texas sites are within the DFW Metroplex. All close. Amazing. Pretty incredible. And so they got, you know, it's interesting that they note, of course, they note that there's political issues.

They don't like the abortion law, of course. But there are things like that that they complain about. They say, you know, transgender rights are bad. Yeah, we don't allow boys to go into girls' bathrooms as a rule. Unless you're at Target. They're fine with it there. Totally fine there, obviously. They encourage it at Target.

AAA 727 BECK. The Tunnel to Towers Foundation is honoring America's heroes and their families. with 200 mortgage-free homes this year. In a moving tribute to the fallen, the Foundation's chairman and CEO walked from the Pentagon to Shanksville and onto Ground Zero. More than 500 miles through six states in six weeks. The Foundation brought Towers of Light back to the Pentagon

and Shanksville Memorials in remembrance. And in a first for the nation, the Foundation read aloud the names of those who lost their lives to 9-11-related illness On Veterans Day, another first. The Foundation is reading aloud the names of people lost in the War on Terror. The Foundation is also giving away a home a day through the holidays this year in its season of hope. Do good and help America to never forget.

Donate $11 a month to Tuttle to Towers at T2T.org. That's T the number two, t.org. So Aaron Rogers, who had COVID recently does seem to have the COVID toe. What? What the COVID toe?

COVID toe. What is COVID toe? I'm not familiar with COVID toe. People talk a lot about some of the side effects. I didn't realize this was a possibility. Now I'm going to, I'm going to get the vaccine right after this show hands. Apparently it's very painful.

It's a real thing. And Rogers, who obviously did not take the vaccine. Right. But he has it. and he says he has it, no lingering effects other than COVID toe. It's a name for something, uh, something,

uh, something, you know, medically known as perineo, which is a condition that causes symptoms such as discoloration and lesions. It could be extremely painful and then the toe, toes turn purple. Okay,

that is weird. Purple toe. COVID toe. You don't want it. No. Stay away from the COVID toe. COVID toe. Can you lose your toe as a result of it?

Do we know? I don't know, but he's on my fantasy team, so I do want to know. All right. Have a happy Thanksgiving. We'll see you again Monday.
