When West Jet first took flight in 1996, the vibes were a bit different. People thought denim on denim was peak fashion, inline skates were everywhere, and two out of three women rocked, the Rachel. While those things stayed in the 90s, one thing that hasn't is that fuzzy feeling you get when WestJet welcomes you on board. Here's to Westjetting since 96. Travel back in time with us and actually travel with us at westjet.com slash 30 years. You know what really bothers me about modern health care? We tend to treat normal as though it's the same thing as healthy.

You tell your doctor you're tired all the time. Your energy is down. You're not thinking as clearly as you used to. And what they tell you is, well, I'm going to run a few basic tests, but everything comes back within range. The conversation is over. But you don't feel normal. You don't feel healthy. That's one of the reasons I love Jevity.

They take a completely different approach. Instead of looking at a dozen basic labs, they run more than 100, hormone, inflammation, metabolic health, nutrient levels. The things that can help explain how you're actually feeling and may even reveal, the problems years before they become a diagnosis. A phlebotomist will come right to your home. Real care team reviews your results and they build a personalized plan based on your data, not some one-size-fits-all guideline. No insurance, bureaucracy, no guesswork, just a better way to take ownership of your health. So I want you to go to gevity.com. Promocode Glenn, 20% off.

has a 69% favorability rating? And why wouldn't he? 69.24. He's doing so much for the city. Is he? He's doing so much for the city. Why wouldn't he? Because he sucks. What? He's a communist?

We're talking about an Islamianist. We're talking about the mayor. Yeah. That's what we're talking about. Wow. Yeah. Okay. The comments underneath that poll were fascinating to me. Things like, yeah, see what happens when you make promises and deliver, your rating goes up.

What did he deliver on? The free bus thing is out. He promised everybody free bus rides. That's not happening. Nope. The grocery store. are years away, the ones that he just talked about with the 30% off, five core products every week or month or whatever it was.

He's working on those. Those are years away if they ever happen. What's he done so far? What is he done? You have the pie to Terry tax, right? Oh, yeah. Yeah. That's going so well because it's designed to apply to owners who don't live full-time in New York

City properties. Right. But apparently the reported thresholds, a house would have to be worth more than $5 million. A condominium or cooperative unit would be subject to the program if it was valued at a million dollars or more. Which is not an extravagant place in New York City. No. Well, a judge has ruled that, you need to pause that. There's a lawsuit filed because then it doesn't settle the surcharge. The judge is saying, no, you need to put a...

pause on that because of the legal challenge because the publication of that tax roll covered about 960,000 properties or owners that could potentially be subject to the new charge. That is a lot of properties. 960,000? The Department of Finance also sent out 17,000 notices to addresses tied to possible liability. So the group of homeowners said no to Mondami. and they sued. And the city finance director,

and they sued the city and the finance director. And they're arguing that the process had wrongly swept in homes that serve as their primary residences. So they had unfairly shifted the burden to residents to establish that they were exempt. They had to, the citizens had to prove that they were exempt. That's the latest battle.

And Trump has said that he wants to, they're trying to find a way to get rid of it as well. I don't know if that's possible or not. and then he's now taking on Amazon drivers, as long as we're talking about Zoran Mondami. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I had this worked out for him because he is doing wonderful things. Yeah, yeah.

I'm fascinated you brought him up because he's doing wonderful things. Well, that's why he has 69% approval. He threw his support behind a city council bill that would force big delivery companies like Amazon and FedEx to hire delivery workers rather than relying on subcontractors. So the bill supporters say it's going to do, and that includes unions. So the current system allows companies to pay workers less, according to them. And the critics, including Amazon, say the bill's passage would drive up prices for consumers and slow down deliveries.

Boy, I hate to see those companies stop delivering to the city. But that's probably not going to happen. No, because he's doing a wonderful job. So he's just delivering on promises is what he's doing. Thank you. I mean, he's going to take it. He's going to take on Amazon and FedEx and all the other companies that deliver goods and services to the city. Wow.

And that's thousands of jobs, hundreds at least. Oh, yeah. Without a doubt. So he's doing wonderful things for the city of New York. And he's just getting started too. He's just just getting, just rolling up his sleeves, Pat. I mean, January was when he started and already the writings on the wall. New York's in for a really big ride here with this guy.

I'm glad we don't live there anymore. No kidding. Or work in the city and live somewhere else, which most people do. But again, there's another place. I don't know how you afford it. I don't know how you afford it. Things have gone up since we left. And it was expensive then.

Yeah. Yeah, it was. Just getting into the city was expensive. Right. You know, if you drive, then you've got to pay all the tolls on the way. Which have gone up dramatically now? A lot. Yeah, I think what was $8 for the toll is now 15.

I think some of them were even earmarked for 20, but okay. And then once you get into the city, you got to park, and that's, you know, at the time. They don't just let you park for free. No, they don't. It's funny. They don't. It was like $500 a month. when we were there.

Yeah. And that was 15 years ago. I took New Jersey transit. I took a train from, well, New Jersey. I lived in Pennsylvania. So I crossed into New Jersey to take the train into New York every day. That was like 500 bucks a month, not counting parking at the train station. Right.

Amazing. They said, oh, you wanted to park and take the train. You got to pay us here to park here. Oh, you didn't walk to the train? You should have walked to the train. I did not. I should have done to save a little bit of money. You're right.

It would have been healthier. Yeah, whatever. Yeah. It was healthier. Wow. So it's just, I mean, just getting to the city is expensive. And then living there. Try to buy something.

Yeah. It's really tough. But we were talking about the, some of the inconsistencies or the problems with the vote going on in Wisconsin and elsewhere. Officials admitted. There was an issue with Francesca Hong and the vote tally in her losing to David Crowley. What we uncovered was that five of the sticks had the audit log downloaded and not the results. It's a human error.

Five sticks. Things can happen. So basically what we need to do is go back to the Operation Center. We're going to download those five machines, the results, and make sure that's not the audit law. So we have the reports printed from the first download. We're going to reprint and start the process so that we can compare those results. We invite you to come join us. Okay.

We'll come with us too. And so we'll re-download those results and then send them back here to be uploaded. Five machines are an issue? Correct. Not the machines, the stick. So the download process was the audit log was downloaded, not the results. Out of how many sticks? And so you will only be

redoing those five six. But we can't know at all the results and we can't see these four six. That was yesterday. It's just the memory sticks.

Right? It's the audit logs. The audit logs. So they put the little memory stick into the computer and download it onto that. From the machine

and download it to that right. Because they don't want to just send it via the internet. Correct. Because then they wouldn't be able count it correctly. Anyway, so then the audit logs apparently were incorrect. So we're redoing those. Audit logs were incorrect. Huh. How'd that happen? I don't know. Someone made a mistake. Someone looked at them funny. I don't know. I hate when that happens. I know. Stop looking

at the audit sticks funny. Don't do that. Don't do that. I don't know. I don't know. You know, it's 2026. How are we having these problems? It's bizarre to me. This is why Mike Lindell, my pillow guy, is not conceding in Minnesota, the other state, because he said there were anomalies as a vote. You don't want that. No, you don't want anomalies.

What was the anomaly in Minnesota? Has he said what the anomaly was? Well, the anomaly was that he lost by a lot of. more than he thought he was going to lose by. And so there was a problem. It's like 11 percentage points, wasn't it? He got crushed. Yeah, he did.

So, but he hasn't conceded yet. No. Because of the anomalies. As far as I know, at this point, because of the anomalies that we're looking into. And he stepped down from my pillow so that he could run for governor. Right, he had to focus completely on the governorship run. Yeah. I wonder if you can get that job back.

Hey, I was just getting on the My Pillow CEO thing? No, no. Did I say I'm stepping down? I meant temporarily. Okay? Like really, really temporary. Sorry, Mike. We've had some anomalies here at My Pillow.

And good luck. God bless. Oh, man. This is kind of fun because NBC's Steve Karnacki on the air being told about the missing USB memory sticks. Yeah, on election night. Yeah. This is fun. I guess the exact thing, yes, is if five of the USB sticks were missing results from the election,

so then they have to go try to re-grab them. Wait, what? Hello? This is before they knew it was the audit. Steve? Yeah, and all the folks behind the scenes are talking about this as well, so we can also... Look, it's unfortunate. The folks behind the scenes hear what you're saying?

Yes. Are Steve You're okay How to ask this artfully Um Ask it artfully Yeah please

That's what you're there for It's election night He couldn't quite ask it artfully That's great Normally on something like that You know what We need a commercial break To get this thing squared away

And then we'll be right back Thanks for watching Election night coverage He was absolutely stunned. He couldn't deal with what was being said to it. No, it's a USB 5, just 5 USB sticks. Yeah. What's your problem?

Thank you. Thank you. It's not a big deal. And they're trying to get it together. And so. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. So I don't know.

Like five of them were misplaced or the vote wasn't on it or I don't understand either. It was the audit tally, I believe. Like, Steve, I'm not sure what exactly went wrong. there with the memory stick. I don't know. And I don't know if they had to go back to the machine and re-download it. I think that's what happened. And that's what that one reporter was asking. And I think she said that it was just from the USB stick, right? Yeah. From the memory stick. So I don't think they had to go back to the machine. They had to just recalibate what was happening from the USB stick. I honestly, I don't know. But again, it's 2026. We should have a better

a better system than this. Shouldn't we? If there's a problem, I'm glad that it was realized and that they're taking care of it. Yes, but there shouldn't be a problem. I'm thinking it's a United States of America in the 21st century. There's going to be minor anomalies here and there, Pat. We're trying to work hard to fix them. You know, it's interesting because our elections used to be, it seems to me, my perception of our elections.

Here we go. was that they were completely secure. We were the ones who went to other countries and oversaw their election process. Because we were so great. Yes. Yes. And we were. And we still are.

We really still are. There was no talk of. Anomalies. We got another anomaly going on. Or the election was stolen. Or that never happened in America. We do have more issues since before. but we are pretty secure.

I mean, that's one of the things that we've, they talked about the last couple of elections, right? The national elections where they tried,

they realized that they, the way we did elections was difficult for all of them to be hacked because they had to get into so many local municipalities and try, if they were going to hack them, they had to do that.

So they couldn't do it. So that was, I mean, that was good news. Now, again, that was eight years ago. Yeah. Again, that was a while ago. But, you know, part of the problem, I think, was when we started getting those machines from Venezuela,

that's probably an issue. That's probably an issue. Maybe don't do that. Maybe we could make our own. Really? Yeah. Yeah, I'm thinking maybe we make our own. Well, we got the contract from the foreign country.

I know. And they got a contract. And we got a deal on it. And they got a contract to make the machines from Venezuela. That's right. That's right. You care about jobs around the world? No, actually, I don't.

I care about jobs in our country. AAA 727 BECK more coming up. One minute. When it comes to supplements, two things matter most. One, that it works. And two, you can trust it. Rather than just tell you about relief factor, I want to let my audience do it.

It's Pat and Jeffie for Glenn this week. Legendary psychic Baba Vanga, who is known supposedly. For predicting 9-11. Yep. The death of Princess Die. Yeah. And the COVID pandemic. Yeah.

To name just a few. This is the gypsy, right? Yes. The blind gypsy psychic. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. From Bulgaria. Yeah. She's posthumously, so she's been dead for a while, I think, since 1996.

She died when she was 84 years old. So she'd be 114 now if she was still alive, but she's not. But her followers have claimed that two of her five prophecies for 2026. Apparently she did. Of course. Some future. When you have visions, you just write them down. Right.

And so she saw some things happening in 2026. She wrote down somehow, I guess in braille. I don't know. She's blind. Did somebody do this for her? How did that work? Bobo Vanga had due people. Okay, good.

So two of the five prophecies for 2026 have already come true. Okay. Leaving the remaining predictions to play out in the next few months. Was 2026 the last year that Baba Van Gassar? I don't know. Is there more to come or? It doesn't say. Okay.

The first new prediction is perhaps the wildest. She is said to have claimed that a massive spacecraft will visit Earth this year. Boom. Wouldn't that be cool? That'd be cool. I hope that comes true. It may have already happened. Oh.

Yeah, because there was... We've seen plenty of sightings. Sightings. There's plenty of UAP anomalies going on. Very true. Reportedly set for November, she alleged that this spacecraft... Oh, so according to her, it hasn't happened yet.

Oh, okay. She alleged it will enter the atmosphere and mark humanity's first official contact with extraterrestrial civilizations. Okay. She was unclear about whether the visitors come in peace or as a threat. Oh, man. That's unclear.

So we'll have to see. I don't know like that. Alongside meeting the aliens, Baba Vanga, the blind Bulgarian mystic. We know. Also predicted this would be the year. World War III breaks out. Isn't that fun? That's fun.

Did they say that that's already started? Well, she says that, uh, that. the really big conflict will begin when China tries to seize Taiwan. Oh. I could see that happening. Yeah. That could be a real problem.

Meanwhile, it's claimed that tensions between Russia and the U.S. would also escalate into direct conflict. There's, of course, the war between Russia and Ukraine right now. That's out there. And we're kind of involved in that. somewhat somewhat yeah we were helping ukraine a lot more than we apparently are currently but but ukraine has been fighting back and russia just released one of our prisoners right i mean we

trump got a deal to get rid of bring home a prisoner yeah was that they had there so yes i mean does that mean our attention seemed to be pretty good she also apparently predicted the european the european wildfires that have devastated parts of spain portugal greece and italy She predicted that, apparently correctly. Okay. I mean, a lot of this is up to interpretation from her followers because it's not, they're not exact predictions. So you do the story, but you're kind of interpret. But you're a disbelievers, whatever.

You do the story. Where are you getting that? Where are you getting that? Yeah, I'm a disbeliever and the Bulgarian mystic. We may be done. In the U.S., there is a break-in every 20.

Pat and Jeffrey for Glenn.

AAA 727BECK. Here is Jeffie with the Fat Five. Okay. President Trump visited Geneva, Ohio on Tuesday to watch the two American athletes win the first ever Patriot games, which were created by his administration to increasingly showcased youth sportsmanship and promote strict biological sex categories and athletics. It was pretty incredible. You can play the video of him walking in. He was joined at the Spire Academy or Speer Academy facility located in Ohio. And I looked up and watched this happen and I

see Pat McAfee walking in with him. Pretty incredible. McAfee was there. He's, you know, it's all has to do with athletics and sports. He was excited about that. Republican Senator Bernie Moreno was there, Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, White House Press Secretary, Caroline Leavitt was there. We've got some news about her coming up a little bit later in the show. And we've got some news about President Trump a little bit later in the show of him speaking after this event. Yes. That has a few people a little wound up. But the final is going to be broadcast on ABC tonight.

The five male athletes and the five female athletes are competing in the finals following. days of competition that began with 120 participants. One male, one female were crowned the champions of the All-American sporting competition that spanned across three days of physical contests at the academy. Now, Trump presented the awards. The news media, except ABC and ESPN, were asked not to report the winners until 9 p.m. tonight. ABC, which owns ESPN, aired the games live, given exclusive streaming rights, So it's out there.

Yeah, because we know the winners. The media guidelines were barred from shooting the event alive. The events can't be longer than two minutes. I saw ESPN while they aired the actual games live. They did post the winner's names on their Facebook page. I don't know if someone was supposed to do that or not. But we know who won. So, I mean, I'll tell you who won if you want.

I mean... Don't spoil it. Don't spoil it. We'll get to watch that unfold tonight on ABC. Recorded live. Not presented live, but recorded live. And so... I mean, I want to tell...

Why? Does anybody care? Does anybody care? Who won that? Does anybody know or care? The winners each receive $125,000. scholarship money. Yeah, it's a good price. And the one girl, I saw one story earlier in the week and when the first, when the games were first getting underway,

and I don't know if it was the winner, you know, the one from Kansas, I don't know if it was her that was saying that she was ostracized at her high school for participating in the Patriot games. Oh my gosh. And I was like, oh my. That's unbelievable. The Trump derangement syndrome, is affected high school? All encompassing, I guess. Oh, my gosh. So you get the one hour recap special on the Patriot Games tonight on ABC, 9 p.m. if you want to know the winners,

because I don't want to tell you who the winners are. We'll spoil the fun. Right. Right. So that's good. Domino's. Let's talk a little pizza. And in fact, they could stop by it anytime if they'd like.

They're going to deploy a rectangular Detroit-style personal pizza nationwide the end of this month, according to a press release, the Domino is going to allow guests to enjoy their own meal with the toppings of their choosing without having to share an entire pizza. I mean, you can just order the pizza. No, you're not going to share it, but, you know, that's just me.

So the domino-shaped menu item will help Domino cement its dominance. Yeah, they've been ahead of Papa John's and Pizza Hut this last two quarters, but the, the last quarter, everything was just kind of flat. So they said that we need this. I remember before earlier in the year, they did the stuffed crush, what they had never done,

and that, you know, blew them off the charts. So they're going to have to do the trial Domino by offering it in a mix and match deal. Customers pick two or more items for $6.99 each. So it looks actually really good. Last time, I will say the last time I had Domino's personal pan pizza,

was pretty darn good. I was very, I was going to come as a surprise to you, but I ate it all. What? Yeah. No. Normally, people probably don't eat, you know, put some away for later. Yeah. I just want to add plod through.

Stunning. Yeah. Stunning. Stunning. In our daily AI watch, Target announced, is appointed its first ever chief artificial intelligence officer in the retailer's latest bet to capitalize on the AI boom. The company named Chandu Hernei, Chandahou, nay. Nailed it.

C-H-A-N-D-H-H-U. I apologize. Chandahoo, if that's the incorrect way to pronounce your name. Chief AI officer and senior vice president. They also named Purveh Shah as the company's senior vice president of user experience. They want to be the most meaningful. They want to use the most meaningful AI stories won't be about what happens in the lab. that'll be about what happens on the front line

and how we make shopping easier for a guest. Give a team member a better tool. Make a business decision with more confidence and bring a new idea to market faster. Yeah, okay. That's great. Nair also worked, previously worked at Lowe's, previously worked at Staples and the Gap. I can't hold the job.

And in this statement, he's focused on a more coordinated approach to AI for, target. So they're not alone. Walmart has been rolling out AI tools and agents across the stores supply chains to enhance the customer experience. Uh-huh. And make its internal

employee process more efficient. Those are, they're all in there. They tell you they're making it good for the customer and making everything better, but it's all about making its internal employee processes more efficient. That means good luck keeping your job.

Hang on tight. Learn AI in the back room of Walmart and Target and Gap for sure. I mean, retail company executives are all about sizing up the AI transition. And the evolution is coming faster than any of us really want it. That's for sure. Then we have our friendly neighborhood ICE from Homeland Security. They planned and reported that they plan to spend up to $20 million to purchase thousands of of conductive distraction and de-escalation devices for officers and agents by March,

according to a notice published by the Department of Homeland Security. The devices are known as the glove, G-L-O-V-E, which stands for a generated low-output voltage emitter and are manufactured by compliant technologies LLC of Lexington, Kentucky. They've been used in recent years by some jails and police departments. Compliant Technologies says the devices function as a normal pair of patrol gloves until officers press a switch to activate their electrical mode. The gloves must be applied directly to someone's skin to deliver the pain stimulus that typically helps an officer gain compliance within seconds, according to the company. It's immediate and sharp and it will distract you. I call it like a bee sting, said John Peters, president of the Institute for the Providence.

of in-custody deaths who is studied i love them who is studying how the device has been used if the officer is getting any type of resistance from the person this is certainly an effective tool uh watch how it works we have a video of a couple of performances at their one of their showcase events oh nice uh one one one guy uh as the man is showing showing himself uh you know down using the glove and then we have a video from the company where they have multiple people being taken down with the glove. All right. And I guess we'd...

Whatever he's about doing, he's going to forget about it. It's a distraction device. It's not a... When I grab a hole, I'm not going to use the gloves. You ready? Here you go. Whoa. Oh, man.

He goes. Oh, he went down fast. Yeah. Now, this video here, this is a compilation video of people showing up at the showcase. I took the music out because I don't want to get dinged and have to everybody write down their BMI S cap sheets. Wow. So I took it out.

But I mean, you go down fast. Imagine using that on the streets or in the prisons and jails. That looks pretty effective. It's very effective. I mean, they all go down immediately. Everybody drops, yes. So there's a button that you press on the glove. On the glove, right?

Or in the glove, but once you wear it. electrical charge. Yes. So it's almost like a taser. Just in the glove. Just in the glove? Yeah. That's kind of cool.

Yeah. I plan to purchase. I want one of those. Can I get one of those? Yeah, go to the website and order it right now. That's fantastic. I don't know if you have to buy them in bulk or if you can just get one. Wow.

That's a good question. Yeah. I need to go to the website and check that. I'll check that out. I'll see. Because the manufacturer warns the device should not be used as punishment against people, merely exhibiting verbal defiance or belligerence or on high-risk populations. Are they legal to sell to just anybody?

I wonder? Why wouldn't they be? Well, because you can take people down with them. I mean, the American Civil Liberties Union said the public should have no confidence that ICE officers will use the devices appropriately. Oh, I have every confidence. ICE is going to use them appropriately. I do as well.

And I promise that if I have one, I'll use it appropriately. I'll tell you that. Me too, I promise. I will say this, the dishes will get done in my house on time. Otherwise, I will break out the glove. Don't shake your head in there, Sarah. You know. Don't make me put on the glove.

I want one desperately. Hey, and we wrap this up by congratulating the one person in Illinois. that won the powerball jackpot, $1.04 million. Congratulations. Over a billion dollars. But they're going to go for the cash payout, and that's less than half, right? I'm really happy for them. What is it?

400 some million? Yeah. And then they end up 40% of that. They end up with almost nothing. It's almost not even worth playing. It's going to be like 250. You're going to get 250 million. What's that going to do for you?

Who's next up? I'd love to see Stephen Biller. He's not going to do it. But, man, he'd be great at that. Yeah, he could, he could do what he does now. Oh, my gosh. It'd be great if he did both jobs. Yeah, he could do them both.

Yeah, why not? Either he or Marco Rubio. Well, Markle's got enough jobs, yeah. I can see Trump asking Stephen, look, dude. I need you. Do it. I need you in that position. But we were thinking, uh, what caused her?

And sure, she wants to spend more time with her kids. Of course. She's got two of them now. Including the new baby. And that's all you hear from women when they first have their baby. Hey, I don't want to go back to work. I want to be with my baby. Okay.

Right. Yeah, that's so disgusting, isn't it? That a mother would want to be with their children. Sorry to disgust you like that, Jeffie. I mean, I'll just say that's what you hear. But here's the thing. She was with the president. in Turkey.

And she was on the Decoy flight. Right. And didn't, we found out now because this has become a huge thing that I don't understand why it's a thing that it is. The decoy flight is such a huge thing now. It's unbelievable. I don't know what the president was supposed to do.

I don't know. Maybe it was leaked from Carolyn because she was pissed. Maybe. I doubt it. I don't think so. I doubt it. I doubt it. She's a loyal fighter, no question.

But I do believe, right? So we find out that she was on the decoy plane and didn't know. I think only Marco and Besson. Yeah, Besson. Scott Besson and Marco Rubey. And they knew what was going on. Yeah. That Trump and his girl, whatever her name is.

Natalie Harp. Yeah. And someone else, I can't remember, went with Trump. to the plane that it's going to carry, you know, obviously be Air Force One at the time. So, I mean, this loyal servant who just had a child who wants to do nothing but spend time with her new baby is on this trip with him and then gets blown off to the decoy plane?

Could that be? I certainly could be. I mean, she got home and hubby was like, that's SOB. leaving you, making you on that decoy plane? I could see that happening. I could too. I could see it being a little bit deeper than she just wants to spend time with her family.

I mean, obviously she wants to spend time with her family. Of course she does. Yeah. I mean, that's, of course. Interesting timing, though, with all this coming out. Yes, it is. And now she's leaving. Same week.

Yes, it is. Interesting. Shouldn't have put me on that decoy plane, bro. She's been super loyal. And maybe that hacked her off. I don't know. Maybe that has nothing to do with it. Maybe she just wants to be with her baby.

Sure. Who can blame her? Sure. Yeah. All right. AAA 727, BECK, we're coming up. When Westchat first took flight in 1996, the vibes were a bit different.

He's on a, I guess, much-needed vacation. He's out gallivantic somewhere. It's gallivanting. France?

I think. That's where I saw the pictures. Yep. And it's not like it's a secret because he tweets it out. So, yeah, I think he's in France. Anyway, that's what the old Instagram portion is. We're not. We're here. Somebody cares about the show and it's us. And America. So we're here. And America. Right. But the president came out of the Patriot Games and spoke to,

was this immediately following the Patriot Games? He was pumped up. He was happy. It was a night. It was Tuesday night, I think, right? Tonight's Thursday. So, yeah. Yeah.

It was Monday night. Anyway, a couple nights ago after the Patriot Games. He was excited. He had the winners. He was there and this was a big deal. And he was pumped up. And he came out and there was the gaggle of press. And of course, if there's a gaggle, he's got a gaggle.

It's amazing how often he does that. You know? All the time. And they hate him for it. It's unbelievable. It is. Because isn't that what you want? You want a president who's accessible?

I mean, the guy comes out and talks to him every day, multiple times a day. And they still hate his guy. He sits in the Oval Office when he's doing something else and then takes all these questions. I mean, the people standing behind him are uncomfortable just waiting for, when is this going to end? I know. And they hate him still. He does it all the time. Joe Biden, who called a lid on the day at 9 o'clock most of the time.

Like, I'm not talking to anyone. anybody. I'm not going anywhere. I'm just going back to my bedroom. Oh, okay. President Trump is not that guy. No, he is not. That's for sure. But here's what he came out and said. Fantastic time in Ohio. The country's doing well. The stock market's fantastic record. We have 79 records so far in a short period of time. More people are working right now in the United States than ever before. And prices are dropping fast. Iran is going fine, going just absolutely fine. We totally control the straight of hormones.

We have control over it. Nobody else. Only us. Our Navy is unbelievable. And things are going great for our country. Go ahead. Go ahead. There you go.

I laid it out for you. We're doing great. Go ahead. I mean, he's probably what? Oh, man. You say it so it comes true. You speak it into existence. There you go.

That's the line. Yeah, the phrase. If that, you know, maybe. that's what he's doing, but I don't know. If you're, you know, I just paid $76 to fill up my gas tank. And so, I mean, you're going to the wrong gas station. Yes, I don't know. It's what is it?

380 or 385 this morning. 3.85 or something? In fact, it's ridiculous. This morning I drove by, I drove by these two close to my house and this one 7-Eleven is 385 and the Walmart still was at 315 and I was like, and it was busy at like 3.30 the morning there were like three cars there and I was like I should probably pull in there too. I need probably should probably get my gas now. And then and then you go into the grow, you go from the gas pump to the grocery store and those prices, I don't know what store he's

going to, but they're not dropping fast where I shop. Not at all. But they will. But they will. Iran is fine. It's absolutely fine. Really? Okay. Complete control of the Strait of Hormuz? Yeah, we got control of it. The United States Navy, the best in the world has control of it. I just saw this morning where traffic through the Strait of Hormuz is less than 10% of what it was before the war. And you know what? I saw that, but I feel like we heard that it was more than that.

Again, you know, I don't know what's right. But I do believe that it was more than that. but it's not 100. No, it's not. No, it's not. It's not back to the way it was. And it's partly why we're paying so much at the gas pump. Because the traffic's not flowing through the straight.

Correct. Where a lot of the world's oil goes through. And even though we don't get a lot of that oil that goes through the straight, others do. And then just the general connectedness of the oil market causes our prices to go up too. even though we're not relying on it. No. And there are goods and services that, you know, we count on them up through there for sure. I mean, goods.

Yeah. I don't know how many people are services, but they're there. But, you know, when Biden was saying that kind of stuff that he said when the economy was not good and inflation was up and he would come out and BS us on prices and the price at the pump and all of that stuff, that pissed me off. Yeah. So I don't like it when the president does this. And I hate to feel this way. But that's, that wasn't a reality check. That was a fantasy check, I think, that he just came out and blew sunshine up our boss.

And I don't want to feel that way. I know. But I don't, I mean, I don't want him to come out and be negative either. No, I know. He's not. He's not that guy. So, I mean, like I said, he was, he was pumped up coming from the Patriot Games. That's not an excuse.

but that's just the truth of the matter. And he had a great time, and he was hanging out with the Maccophie and the rest of the athletes. And he got cheered by the crowd. Of course, just the Patriot games, man. Heck yeah, they were happy that he was here. The athletes loved him.

And so, you know, he came over to the gaggle and he was like, look, I lay it out for you, everything is fine. Go ahead. What else you want to know? Everything is awesome when you're part of a team. What else you want to know? Go ahead.

You go. And it was probably sort of a preemptive strike. Yes. About what they were going to start yelling at it. Absolutely, it was. And it probably worked, frankly. Yeah. So I shouldn't be irritated by it.

Maybe I was just in a bad mood when I first heard it. Well. And, you know, it just, it would be nice if we were actually in full control of the Strait of Hormuz. if we could shut them down from attacking any ship that comes through. It is amazing that some attacks are still happening. I can't even believe it at this point. And I guess we can't wipe out every launcher they have, but you wonder why?

How is it possible that we haven't been able to get every launcher they have? It is interesting that, I mean, turn pistol pete loose. Let him go. Yeah. Yes. You know, let him do what he needs to do to destroy those. It's interesting that that hasn't, you know, that we, that hasn't happened and that we can't do it. And we're still in the pause mode, it seems like, because we're not attacking them right now.

Oh, yes. We are definitely in the pause mode. He wants to make that deal. And while I didn't want to necessarily be in this position to begin with, uh, I now I'm at the place where we're in it. So we've got to win it. Right? We can't be left.

hanging like this. Yes. So get in there, put the hammer down. Yes. And then get out. And I don't want to hear that we are low on munitions. No, I don't either. Use them.

Whatever munitions we have. Use the ones we're not low on. Use them. Yes. Which, you know we've got those. We've got dumb bombs. Yes. As far as the eye can see, I'm sure.

Use those. What we might be lacking is the smarter bombs, the, you know, the things that are more accurate. And those take some time. make. Yeah. Which, you know, he said when he was in Pennsylvania, I don't know, a month or so ago, when he was with some of the contractors that make the weapons, he was like, they've ever pick up the pace.

Yeah. And when I heard that, I was like, oh, that means where he needs, he needs them. And what makes me even more sensitive to this is we're just a few weeks away from early voting starting in some states. Yeah. There's like five states to start in September. I think the first one starts September 18th. September 18th.

That's a month away. Wow. And so if voting begins while gas prices are this high and the grocery store prices are this high and Iran is still out there lingering. Ukraine, Russia still lingering. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know that the midterms go well.

I know it's not his war, but, you know, he did say he was going to fix it. Yeah. And while a... That's been a little tougher than he anticipated. It has. It has. And I give him that. Yeah.

But, you know, there's a lot going on. And everything he's trying to do, they shut him down. So... Yeah, they do. I mean, they make it more difficult than they need to. They've made his life more difficult than it needs to be. And that makes some of the races around the country more difficult than they should be. Yes, it does.

Ken Paxton shouldn't be having any difficulty with James Tala Rico. The guy's an absolute freak and an extremist radical. And it's unbelievable that he actually leads in that race 4745 over Ken Paxton. Here in Texas, for the U.S. Senate. Can't be. That can't be. In the beginning, they made a big deal out of Jasmine Crockett being against and mad at the Tel Rico people. and the United States, you know, government, the Senate and the Congress for not backing her more

and allowing Tel Rico to beat her. And so there was a big talk that the African-American community was against James. And he's done quite a bit in the last month to try to win that back. He took a beating at a couple of churches that we saw we played videos of that he did take a beating, even though he was spewing some nightmare things at the same time. But now there's a black pastor who's on his side, right? He just had this big church outside of Houston. Endorse him from the pulpit.

Oh, boy. I don't know if we have the video. I think Chris sent it in. But it is incredible. I mean, he's winning it back. The dominoes are starting to fall. The big church in Humble. Texas, I believe. Yeah.

Gave him, had him up there at the pulpit, and the pastor said, I endorse him 100%. Wow. And the church was united and cheering. Were they? And so he's winning that back. I mean, the guy, just as a recap, here's just a few of the crazy things that he has said. And that, first of all, Jesus was a radical feminist. Okay, that's one of his things.

White men are the greatest terror threat we face in this country. Ken Paxton needs your vote. Yes, he does. There are six biological sexes. Six genders. Ken Paxton needs your vote. Yeah. The border should be like a front porch with a welcome man out.

Ken Paxton needs your vote. How about atheists? are more Christ-like than Christians. Ken Paxton needs your vote. I mean, this is a radical extremist, and Texas can't fall to this guy. No, no, my gosh, no. Please, by all that is holy,

Ken Paxton needs your vote. And the problem is, you know, and this is why we talked about it when it happened at the time on Pat Gray on Leash, because Ken Paxton went to Europe with his new woman. They don't, he doesn't like it. His team doesn't like it when we call her his mistress.

But that's, you know, they're not divorced yet. So that's essentially what she is. Oh, the first, but he and the wife are not divorced. But they've been separated. For a long time. They've been separated. Yeah. Yeah.

The divorce is happening. It is. They're going to get a divorce. But that hasn't technically, officially or lawfully happen yet. So, you know, the mistress tag is still accurate. What's he supposed to do? Just roll up in a quarter? No. But what he's supposed to do is maybe not make such a, I don't know, spectacle out of it.

Right. And take her to Europe when the general election cycle had already started. Yeah, the general election had already started. He just kicked Corny's butt. By 28 points. And I really found it over the 4th of July holiday, he was. went to Europe. Yeah. With her. While I get it, that's fine. You had a big, you had a big campaign and you were running

and you, you know, you retired and you wanted to, you wanted to go and spend a little time. But not then. Yeah. Not that publicly either. Not that. It was just really poor timing. However, Ken Paxton needs your vote. Yes, he does. However, I'm still voting for the man. But as a result of everything we're talking about, so he's at a rally, yes. yesterday in San Antonio talking to supporters and making fun of Tala Rico and using scripture to do that. So somebody in the crowd yelled, yeah, well, why did you cheat on your wife? Oh. And then the crowd helped him out by chanting USA, USA. Okay. But that's what he's going to have to

face now. Yeah. I mean, he's going to have to face it head on. Yeah. It's not going to be, have you seen her? It's not going to be that. No, no, no. It's not going to be that. And it's not helpful. It's really not helpful. And we're not Ken Paxton's judge, you know, but we're also not running for U.S. Senate. None of us are perfect, but he is running for U.S. Senate. And unfortunately, he's going to have to answer for that now, because especially since he's brought up religion and scriptures and all of that, because you want to with Tala Rico saying the crazy stuff he says. Yes. But it makes it difficult. More coming up in one minute. In the U.S., there is a break-in every 26 seconds, but when intruders step near,

You know, so I think what we're saying here that we started before the break is Ken Paxton needs your vote.

If you live in Texas, please don't let anything come between you and voting for Ken Baxter. You imagine how catastrophic it would be if this radical leftist takes Texas? I don't think. We'll lose the majority. James Del Rico is going to be a. United States Senator from the state of Texas.

I don't either. I don't believe that. But I'm not sure if that's just wishful thinking because he's ahead in the polls. But I will say at the same point in the campaign back in 2018, some polls had Beto O'Rourke ahead of Ted Cruz by two points. In fact, it was the same 47-45 margin. And, you know, obviously Ted won that by two or three points in the end. But, Tala Rico is a way better, to me, I think he's much better candidate than Beto was. Yes, he's very smooth.

He is like the white Obama. It kind of is. He's a really good speaker. He's a good communicator. And he knows how to play the game. And he's, you know, trying his darnedest to run away from all of his extremist nonsense. He's walked into it by saying they will say, It makes it appear like they're lying.

But he never says they're lying because they're not. They're saying that because it's true. You know it's true. Right, but it's a good plan. Yeah, it is. It's effective. Just say they're going to say it. Right.

It makes it seem like they're lying. And that's what he's been doing. Right. And it sounds like they're lying. Even though we're not lying. They're not. The guy's a freak. You know, for all the Christians who, and I just saw a poll where he's doing really well amongst evangelicals.

I mean, this is a guy who said he has a Christian who hates Christianity. Yeah. He said, I often describe myself as a Christian who hates Christianity. Me too. What? Me too. Oh, man. James Tellerico and Jeff Fisd,

There are the two. I mean, how many times have I? Oh, if I had a nickel, you know. Christian who hates Christianity. Who says that? Nobody's saying. Nobody's saying. I mean, they will say that I say that.

And they'll only say that because it's true. All right, there is more coming up. Cozy Earth's mission is to transform the time that matters most.

No, and she stepped aside and then she started trying to blame it on the people who are saying there's a problem. Yeah. That's why she stepped aside, ooh, no. I mean, when you've got your ribs poking out and you can. Yeah. It's, and the same thing is going on now, it looks like with Jenna Ortega. Yes.

From Wednesday, the Netflix series Wednesday, which I think just dropped, right? A new season just started on it. So she was, you know, out promoting it. Yeah. Which is where we're getting the- People were like, oh, they gasped when they saw her. Right. That's how thin she is.

I mean, look at this picture here. Now, this picture is, this is the now picture. Yeah. I mean, if you go from, if you go from before, like the year, a year ago. Yeah, look at that. Yeah, big difference. That's a year ago. Healthy.

Healthy. But then not so much. I mean, it looks like. Look at that. I mean, there's a problem. There's an issue. There's a problem. Ariana Grande as well.

And so what's your several lovers? Look at this picture of her. I mean, that's just frightening. That almost looks like a meth photo. It kind of does. It kind of does. A poster for meth. And you know what?

And maybe, and you look at what's her face? The partner from, I never could remember her name. Oh, she's the one with Ariana Grande and Wicked. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. I don't remember her name. Long fingernails.

shirt hair so both of them in that movie you know yeah the green one she's green don't shake your head at me so don't do that i just but it's it's frightening because you you want them to be healthy i know to be okay and i you know they say they're okay but they don't look like to be honest i hope that it's a eating disorder rather than meth yeah right i mean either way though that's pretty sad i mean because there's several eating disorders and they haven't, you know, agreed to any of them and said that they have a problem. So you have anorexia, anorexia nervosa, which, you know, that's tough to get through anorexia. Although you beat the crap out of it.

Some of us have struggled with that for a number of years. You put it on the endangered species list is what you did to anorexia. It was difficult. Yeah, I'm sure it was. I got through it with a lot of prayer and family. Yeah, there was prayer involved. Yeah. Okay.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's good. It worked. I passed it did. Show's prayer works. There's bulimia. Yeah.

Okay. And then there's there's binge eating disorder, which I don't. There's PICA where you're just eating all kinds of different, you know, different things, which is weird.

But then there's one that, this could be it. Okay. Rumination disorder. Rumination. I don't know what that is. That occurs when a person routinely regurgitates food. They have previously chewed and swallowed.

Oh. re-chuse it and then either re-swallows it or spits it out. Like a cow does cut? Typically occurs in 30 minutes of a meal. Yeah. They might have that. They might have that. I don't know.

Humans can't do that. What is that? I have never heard of that as a human condition. Now you have. All right. Yeah. Okay. You know, and all these women are too young to remember, Karen Carpenter back in 82.

when she died and she wouldn't admit to an eating disorder either. She swore the whole time she was fine, but she was not, obviously. And I think if I remember correctly, she was 83 pounds when she died. Wow. 83 pounds. Weren't you 83 pounds at birth? I think that was your birth weight, right? I'll have to look.

Probably. Like I think it was 83 pounds and 8 ounces, something like that. Family was proud. Of course they were. baby boy. Are you kidding me? Well, okay, you didn't bounce. But the room did, if you ever fell.

Wow. I was just a baby. Right. Right. I forgot for a second. Okay. But to be serious and continue being serious because we're serious about you weighing 83 pounds, 8 ounces at birth.

This is a real problem. It is. You know, so many girls look up to these actresses and singers. That's what makes it all the more dangerous. Because you don't want your teenage girls thinking, oh, yeah, I need my bones to poke through my skin like they have. I will say this. I don't, and you don't want that at all. But, I mean, a number of TikTok videos that I view from time to time, there are a lot of women that aren't doing that.

So I don't know that they meet anorexia as well. on those videos. Scant few people that beat it the way you do. I'm sure it's happy. I'm proud of that. But you're a one and a million kind of guy. You should be proud.

Your family. I know your family's proud. Absolutely. That's good. But wow. These photos are startling of the before and after. Would you see the graduation of them?

Sheesh. To what they are today. Yeah. It's really, really frightening. And I hope that they have someone in their life that can say to them, hey,

I don't know what's happening, what's going on. I mean, there's some kind of intervention. Yeah. Yeah. That has to happen. Look, it's hard.

So what do you, I don't know what you do. Yeah. Oh, I forgot about what's her face. Osborne. Holy cow, yeah. Remember when she came out after her dad's funeral, everybody was like,

what is going on? Oh yeah. Ozzy's daughter. Yeah. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Yeah. It seems to be a thing right now.

That is definitely a thing. And it's, you don't look good. No. It's not working. Yeah. So I, and look, it's difficult, right? I mean, you're, you're, all your do people and family, you know, they're living off what you do. So it's tough to have that.

intervention. But I mean, it has to be done. Yeah. Plus people with anorexia virtually never admit they have anorexia. I know. Right. So they don't want to face that. It takes forever to actually admit it that you had it.

Yeah. It took you a while. Yeah. Yeah. All right. But again, once you did, you... Well, that's the thing. You want to, once you got to break through that barrier.

And you did. You did. So congratulations again on that. On a happier note, though, kind of the side issue, Wednesday, the series, that's back. I love that show. Do you watch? She's back. Do you watch the first season?

Of course, you don't like it that much. Of course. I watched the first season. It was okay. It was better than okay. That's a really good show. I watch the first season. It was okay.

It's really good. So I highly recommend it. But that's neither here nor there. When you got issues like it. or whatever they're dealing with it. And we'll see what she looks like in season three. I will watch some of that just to see what she looks like. Right.

On the website, they're just saying, OZempic. That's not OZMPIC. That's beyond that. No, there's more than that. Yeah. If it is OZMPIC, stop. I think it's time. It's pretty simple.

Yeah. You don't even need the 2.5 or whatever. Maybe they're doing a different, you know, different OZMPIC and math. Maybe they've got a different. blend that they're using? I don't know. Either way, stop. Yeah. Get help. Definitely. All right. Triple eight 727 B-E-C-K. Also, we, you know, we've been talking a little bit about the midterms, which are coming up, and they are so critical. And there are so many states that can't be lost to the psychos that are running. I mean, Maine. we were hearing some things about the main election with Susan Collins who now trails.

Yes. I can't even think of what the guy's name is. The guy who replaced. I want to say Jake Tapper and that's not it. No, it's not Jake Tapper. But he was up over Susan Collins 48, 46. Yeah. And he's the replacement.

Yeah. He's the replacement. So. So that continues to be an issue and a little bit of a problem. Holy cow. Michigan with, we're going to get into the whole Abdul Rahman Mohamed El-Said coming up in a minute. Does he be a doctor? Yes, Dr. Abdul Rahman-Mohamed El-Said.

He is actually claims to be left of Bernie Sanders, which is pretty far left. and he's got some issues on health care that he's presenting to America, on trans rights that he's presenting to America. We could have this guy in office in the U.S. Senate. Wouldn't that be a dream come true? So if you couple that with the chance that we have James Tolariko in Texas, you're talking about a Senate that is completely out of control with radicals at that point. And I don't even know, is Troy Jackson the replacement for Graham and Maine?

Is he a nightmare? I mean, I guess yes is the straight answer. Yes. I don't know his policies, you know, back and forth. Yeah, if he's the replacement for Graham, of course he is. He's a nightmare. Of course he is. Yes.

And we've got that situation going on all over the country. We'll get into that. Coming up, 727 BECK, that's AAA 727 BECK. Fighting every day to keep the republic our founders created. Glenn Beck continues after this. When WestJet first took flight in 1996, the vibes were a bit different. People thought denim on denim was peak fashion, inline skates were everywhere, and two out of three women rocked, the Rachel.

While those things stayed in the 90s, one thing that hasn't is that fuzzy feeling you get when WestJet welcomes you on board. Here's to WestJetting since 96. Travel back in time with us and actually travel with us at westjet.com slash 30 years. While the headlines might change, the threats facing Israel remain. While much of the world has moved on to the next story, Israeli families continue living with the reality of terrorism and uncertainty and recovery. Communities remain on alert.

Parents still think twice before sending their children to school. Families continue rebuilding their lives knowing the next siren could come without warning. As Christians were called to stand with God's children in times of need. And that's why the international fellowship of Christians and Jews remains on the ground in the Holy Land each and every day, providing life-saving aid, food for struggling families, emergency assistant, bomb shelters, and critical support for those impacted by war. Even after the cameras leave and the headlines fade, the fellowship remains committed to Israel's most vulnerable. Join the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews in praying

That's pray-I-F-CJ.org. Pat and Jeffie for Glenn. We're going to get into the whole Abdul Rahman-Mohamed El-Said. I'm sorry, I left out the doctor again. I apologize for offending you like that, Jeffie.

Dr. Abdul-Rachman Mohammed-El-Said. We'll talk about his candidacy in this all-important midterm election, which is coming up. But there's also some things in California that are going to be hammered out in this election cycle. One of them is, are they going to take 5% of billionaires' wealth away from them?

And I'm not even sure if that also applies to some millionaires. I don't know what the cutoff is on that, but they're talking about a billionaire tax of 5%. So that's not 5% of what you made last year. That's 5% of what you're worth. So a person like Sergey Brin, who is a co-founder of, Google. He would owe, we figured this morning on Packeray Unleashed, he

would owe something like $14 billion to California, which is why he's fighting against it so hard. He has spent $102 million trying to stop this incredibly out-of-control freight train that is taxes in California.

On the other hand, when he could afford it. Kenny? He won't even miss it. $14 billion. billion dollars. To Sergey Brin, that's nothing. Nothing. He is worth $284 billion. So, yeah, he won't even notice it. Thank you. I mean, it might have to, you know, lay off people that work on his yacht for a month. But, you know, whatever. I doubt, I doubt he'd even have to do that. You know,

I mean, it's insane to think that they believe they can just take people's money. Yeah. So, nothing. If Elon living. there, 5% of a trillion dollars. Oh, yeah. I mean, you're talking about, what, 50, 50 billion, right? Sure. Something like that. My math is correct, which probably it isn't.

No, 500 billion, right? No, that would be half. You're not getting half. You're not getting half, but don't think they won't come back to them again. They have said that this is. You're not going to half this time. That this is a one-time tax, but you know that once they get the grubby hands on it, they're going to try it every year. They don't know the meaning of a one-time tax.

And it's going to be interesting to see if Californians buy into this hype and say, yep, they need to have that taken. They're not paying their fair share. So we're going to take this from them. They keep saying that these billionaires pay less in taxes than you do. It's so ridiculous. what most of these billionaires pay is capital gains taxes. So they pay a tax of, I don't know what the percentage is right now, 15 or 20 percent, of what you've already paid taxes on because you paid taxes and then what's left over you can invest.

So after you've invested the money that's already been taxed, they tax it again when you get a return on that. It's outrageous. And that's what they claim. Well, they're not paying as much. as you are. Really? Okay. And again, it's like, okay, what is the fair share for wealthy people? What is their fair share? Do they have to pay, because they already pay 51% of the tax burden. Does it need to be 81%? You know, that's good for a start. Good for a start. And that's the attitude. That is the attitude. So no wonder there's an exodus out of California.

and for the first time ever last year, more people left than moved in or were born in California. The outflow was higher than the inflow, which is, I mean, I don't know why more people aren't leaving, actually. Because the laws that they're passing and the governing that's going on, if you live in Los Angeles and you've got to pick between those two nightmares who are left in that mayoral race, in L.A. Oh, no thank you. No, and to be clear, if you're going to move out of California, I don't know if you're aware of this,

and this has not been breaking news. It's been news for about the past year. Texas has closed. We're not accepting any more people. Sorry. I mean, we want to. Oh, we'd love to. In fact, I'm fighting Greg Abbott right now.

But there's no vacancies. But there's no vacancy. At all. So. Huh. You'd think I'm not. The state this big, there would be some, but no. You would think that.

There are none. So if you come from California, you've got to find another state. Wish we could help you, but we can. All right. Pat and Jeffrey for Glenn this week. More coming up. For those of you turning 65, you don't need me to tell you this. You're getting slammed with Medicare spam.

Mailers, robocalls, ads, all of the things saying different things, all promising you, they know what's best for you. The truth is, there are thousands of options that many of these spammer. only sell just a few of them because they make commission on those. What you really need is clarity, honest help, and that's why I want to tell you about Chapter. They want retirement to be the best chapter of your life, and they do that by helping you find the Medicare plan that actually fits your needs. Over the last year, Chapter has saved my audience $1.5 million just by helping people find a better-fitting plan. It's not just about saving money. I heard from Mark in Arizona

who couldn't get access to a heart specialist until Chapter stepped in and helped him get the care he needed. He said it was absolutely spectacular. Give him a call. The call is free. They have helped thousands of people just this last year in this audience. Dial pound 250, say the word chapter. Pound 250, say the key word, chapter. Jeffie, we've got such a critical midterm election coming up in November and so many radicals that could be elected and seemingly are in a pretty good position right now to be elected. Hard to imagine. We'll talk about, especially talk about one of those radicals coming up in one minute. One of the easiest mistakes to make when you're buying a house is assuming you're only buying a house. But the truth is you're not. You're also buying the neighborhood, the commute, the school district.

You're buying the neighbors you haven't even met yet. And you're buying every little surprise that comes with all of that. That's why having the right real estate agent matters so much. A good agent doesn't just unlock the front door and tell you how nice the kitchen is. They know the local market. They know what to be looking for, what questions to ask, what potential problems deserve a closer look before you sign anything. That's why Glenn started real estate agents I trust.

It's a network of experienced and really successful agents who have earned their reputations by helping people navigate one of the biggest financial decisions you're going to ever make. They've also earned their reputations by working hard and closing great deals for the people who use them. Look, you're not just buying four walls and a roof. You're choosing the place where a big part of your life is going to happen, where your kids are growing up. So go to real estate agents.org.com will help you find that right person. Real estate agents I trust.com. Okay, a CNN investigation has a CNN investigation has found that El Saeed, Abdul El Saeed, I don't want to do the holes. What the heck are you?

Take the rest of the show to say this guy's full name. but they found that he removed more than a hundred YouTube videos with his far-left beliefs on them. So the guy's trying to hide who he is right now. Yeah, I don't know about that. Because if Americans knew, and they really understood that, hopefully you'd like to think they wouldn't vote for him. Well, yeah.

You'd like to think that. You'd like to think that. I mean, that's what we're talking about with James Tel Rico. That's what we're talking about. with what's his face in Maine. Yes. Troy Jackson. I'll remember his name now.

Right. Troy Jackson. Right. I mean, this is what we, it's happening and I say all over. But those three states are important. Michigan, Maine, Texas. Yes. Pretty important.

There's only two senators in each state. I just learned that. Anyway. Congratulations. Thank you. Yeah, that's good. Yeah, I was doing my work on democracy. And, yeah, it's, I mean, it's critical.

And I hope everybody's taking it seriously in the above-mentioned states, because especially Texas, can't lose that race. And not lose that race. I refuse to believe that we will, to be honest with you. Ken Paxson needs your vote. Also in Maine, apparently Susan Collins was ahead of Platner. Yeah, we saw that chart this morning. And she's behind this new guy.

Wow. Really? Yeah, she was up. I think it was 5046 or something on Platon. but she's behind 4846, this new guy, Jackson. So frightening. And we'll tell you more about the guy in Michigan coming up in a second. But first let's talk to Hope, who is in Maine right now.

Okay. Welcome, Hope. Hi. Thank you so much for my call. Yeah. So I just wanted to make sure that the governor's race got on your radar as well. Okay. We have an incredible gentleman, Bobby Charles, running against Hannah Pingree. Very nice lady, but she has been a policy advisor to our current governor. We have a two-term governor, Janet Mills, who's turned out. And so it's Bobby Charles Republican against Hannah Pingree.

and she's the daughter of first congressional district congresswoman Shelly Pingree. Insider. So anyway, Maine's got a lot of problems. I know a lot of states do, but we're a small state, 1.4 million people. And, you know, we're in the, we're going, we've gone in the wrong direction. We're in the bottom five education. We're in the top five for taxes, income taxes, property taxes. Our energy costs are off the charts.

You know, I don't want to take a lot of your time. I could go on and on. It sounds like almost every state, to be honest with you. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. And we've got the fraud. We've got the waste, fraud, and abuse stuff.

Again, it sounds almost like every state. Yep. You're right. You're right. But I just, I love the attention for the Susan Collins race, and I just wanted to mention Bobby Charles. Of course, thank you. Okay.

Do you think Susan Collins pulls this race out? Yes, she does. Yes, she does. Absolutely. No problem. She's going to, I feel confident about that. I've heard from other people that polling for her is always difficult to track. But people, when it's time to vote, people vote for her. I believe that, too. I was talking this morning when we saw that ball. I was like, there's no way Susan Collins.

I mean, she has the infrastructure built there. Yeah. Right. I mean, there's no way that she loses that, see. But, you know, Cornyn thought that too against Ken Paxon. Yeah. You know, the other thing about that race is we are not Susan Collins fans because she's not a conservative. She's barely Republican. She's a rhino. But in comparison to the people she's running against, she's like Ronald Reagan. She's bearing Goldwater in comparison. So you got to have her win that race.

it's just so critical right now. The Democrat Party has become so extreme and so filled with socialists, Marxist, communist, Islamist, you can't have them winning races anymore. I know you can't. You can't. You have to make the tech get smaller.

You have to make that democratic big tent. That has to become smaller. And again, if this was Republicans and they were accepting KKK, members into the party and saying, well, we're a big 10 party. We accept anybody who will help us beat the Democrat. It's got a lot of followers and I just want to attract the people that we can to help us win the election.

Would anybody buy that? No, there's no way. So don't be buying it with the Democrats. We're just a big tech. No, you're becoming what you're allowing into your party. Oh, yes. You can make the argument they've already become it. show me your friends and I'll show you your future.

I'll show you who you are. And this is who the Democrats are. You know, they're a bunch of extremists and radicals and they want to take billionaires money and millionaires money. And even the middle class money, they pretend like they're all about the middle class. They're not.

They're not. And they never have been. And look, your boy there, El-Said, Dr. whatever is. whatever it is. Dr. El-Said. He, you know, is all for the little guy.

But he's a rich guy, too. He's got plenty of wealth. Yeah. So it's interesting how he, you know, he cares, just like Mondami. The hypocrisy. Yeah, it absolutely is a hypocrisy. Mom Donny's family is incredibly wealthy. Yeah.

And look, Al-Said's got properties around the globe. Jeez. Incredible. But he's tricking people by claiming to be about the little man. and he believes that everybody should have the right to health care. Here he is talking about health care and trans care. Oh, yeah. Healthcare should be a choice made by a patient and their doctor.

If that patient is under the age of 18, their parents as well, right? And I believe that Medicare for all should cover all health care. Yeah. Which is defined by what a patient needs in accordance with their doctor. So that includes reproductive rights, right? That includes gender affirming care. Okay. Excellent.

So he wants Medicare for all. And I thought we already took care of this in 2009 with Obamacare. Didn't we have this same argument? Like everybody needs health care. Everybody has a right to health care. It wasn't done perfectly. It's amazing that we're just this far down the road and everything that we said was going to happen with Obamacare.

happened. When are they going to start believing us? We say this over and over and over and over again. And it just turns out to be the case every time. We're sold a bill of goods on that one. It was supposed to lower the cost for everybody for the average family, $2,500 per family per year. You can keep your doctor if you want. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Everybody's going to have health care and it's going to be super affordable. Nope. Nope. That's not what happens at all. Not even close. And then this trans thing, whof, Tim McBride, who is actually Sarah McBride. I'll thank you not to dead name. You're the one that's dead named her, not me.

Don't look at me. I was because of you because I knew that you were going to call her Tim, and I was going to be so pissed. Okay. So I thought I'd nip that in the bud right from the get-go. So I have to call her Sarah now? Yeah, you do. Okay. Okay.

So here's Sarah talking about. trans rights and where they've gone. We are facing a cultural regression in this moment, not just substantively, but in public opinion. Support for marriage is less today than it was three or four years ago. Pause for a second. Support for gay marriage is less than it was. Why is that? Hmm.

Is it because the gay marriage wasn't really the point? Look at how society's changed since the gay marriage argument. Yeah. And homosexuals at the time would say, why do you care if we get married or not? Why is that important to you? Well, because it's going to change society as we know it. And it has. It sure has.

Yeah. It's done exactly that. And so it wasn't ever just about marriage. It was about something much, much more. And every time you give an inch, they take a mile. And they always try to make it into a mile and a half. Yeah. Or 10 miles even. But there's more. To your point, support on individual issues facing the trans community on individual policies around trans rights by every objective metric is worse today than it was five years ago. Now, there's so many issues of trans rights that maintain public support that have a majority of- First of all, is that true? I don't know that I believe that.

Secondly, let's say the perception, I think the perception has changed slightly. None of their rights have been taken away. Zero. I mean, nothing. No one has said take any of their rights away. Nobody. But we've been pushed so far as a society that we can't even identify what a woman is anymore. Or what a person who gives birth is, by the way, a woman.

But you can't say that because it might be a person who now is purporting to be a woman. But started out as a man. And you're supposed to pretend like, oh, okay, that person can have a baby. No. No. I mean, well, we've- Now, if they're a woman biologically, and they identify as a man, that person could actually have a child. Because, again, it's a woman.

And they want us to believe that the man had the baby. Right. That's not what happened, however. That's what pushed us into using biological. Right. That's right. because it differentiates what they're trying to talk about and actual reality.

Yeah. And so it's been so frustrating to watch everything slide downhill to the point where a Supreme Court justice or a nominee for the Supreme Court justice can't even tell you what a woman is. Come on. How did we get to this place? And we got to this place because we've been to.

over backward. In fact, we allowed that person to become a Supreme Court justice. Sure did. But she had still more. Have a majority of support. But even on those issues, it is less support today than it was four or five years ago. And there are a whole host of reasons for that. There is no question that a well-funded, well-coordinated, revant right-wing regressive movement has successfully pushed public opinion. Pause for a sec. Who's paying us?

Well, we get a paycheck from the Blaze. Nobody is paying us to say the things we say about transgendered people. We're just trying to establish reality and remind people what's real and what's not. Nobody's paying anybody for doing that. If they are, Jeff Fisher, chewing the fat of the blaze.com. Fine, let me know. Do you have a Venmo? I have a PayPal at Jeffie. Jay. Jeffrey CTF is my PayPal.

You put money in there anytime. Okay. All right. I accept it. So you're willing to be well-funded. It's an open account. They can just drop it in. All right. And again, there is more. There's no question, too, in my mind, that many of the strategies and tactics that we employed over the last five years, that they didn't work in staving off. the regression. And I think that that includes a strategy of of shaming and blaming. That includes a strategy of cutting off conversation and in many cases cutting off relationships. I think none of those cutting off body parts. And they not only didn't work, I think they often created even more space for those well-funded right-wing efforts. Thank you, Sarah.

That's about all I can handle on that over. Is Sarah 100%? Did Sarah do it? Go all the way through surgery? You know, I think we looked into that before, and I don't remember what the answer was. I think she did have the surgery. Right. Yeah.

I think so. I think there's been body parts removed there. So. And that is such a. There's that. That's a lifelong thing, too, man. Because you got to. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Holy cow. Yeah. And the president. president just stopped Medicare and Medicaid funds from going to those transitional surgeries for teens. So that can't happen anymore. And they're all upset about that too. Because your gender affirming care is being denied now. Right. Amazing. AAA 727 BECK. There's more in one minute.

When you sign your company's insurance policy for some brokers, that's the finish line. Handshake, commission, done. We'll see again a year later. Time for renewal. What do you say we play golf?

Paid for by SuperShore Insurance Agency LLC, a licensed insurance agency. So apparently the answer is yes. on Tim Sarah, Sarah Tim McBride, has had the search. So, wow. Is she?

100%. Did she have the chromosomes changed as well? Don't start bogging me down because you're a little. That's the right wing hate that comes out of you. Talking point. Yeah, that narrative I'm so highly paid to expound on. That's it right there. Yeah, yeah.

So that should be another $1,000 in the bank account right there. I'll check my paper. You know, and the other thing that's been happening is that women are not protected anymore. Women have gone, and their rights and their sensibilities have been tossed right out the window in favor of the trans rights and the trans sensibilities. And that's another thing that society is pushing back on ever so slightly. Hey, what if women are uncomfortable with men with their dangling unit in a locker room? And they don't want to see it, and they shouldn't have to do that. Tough.

Right. That's right. Why do you hate? I don't. I just don't want to see your dangling unit in a female locker room. You know what? Your membership has been canceled. And that's exactly.

That happened. Get out. That happened. Get out. Was it Planet Fitness? LA Fitness did that. I think the Y did that. Wow.

Yeah, there's been. There's been a couple. Couple. I mean, the Planet Fitness has been in the news multiple times. And the Y, I don't remember if there's been more than one at the Y, but there possibly has. Meanwhile, we've got this person, this man back in 2018, was a man and then started identifying as a woman. Rachel McKinnon became the first transgender identifying athlete to win the women's master's tracks. cycling world championships in England.

Then Rachel won a second title. Oh my gosh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's an athletic. She's a very athletic person. Yeah, very, very. Even told Sky News at the time that the obvious advantage that he had over female competitors. I thought she was a sea.

Didn't mean he should be excluded from competing against them. So kind of admitted, yeah, I got a, I have an advantage over them. but so well i i say look i i know i have an advantage but i identify as a female i feel like a female everywhere i go and everything i do so i'm a female so eventually british cycling uh put a stop to that they said okay you got to be a biological female hold it hold it down the woman again so that kept mckinnan now out of competition so now at 44 rachel mckinan who is now going by veronica ivy is competing in Canadian women's golf. So switch from British cycling to women's golf in Canada.

That was just the wrong name for her. So Veronica Ivy is the name. That is her name. That's hers right now. That's her. That's the one that represents her. And she just won a championship in that particular competition as well. So, wow, what a talented woman.

and lovely, too. We don't have time to show the photo, but it would be blown away. You'd fall in lovely. Absolutely lovely. I think about Providence often these days, the idea that we're stewards of our families, our communities, our own safety. The founders understood this. It's woven into the fabric of who we are as Americans, and I want to share something with you. It's called Burna, B-Y-R-N-A, and it's changed how I think about personal protection. Here's the thing. Most people assume self-defense is complicated, that you need training, licensing, you know, government approval. But Burna is legal in all 50 states. No permit, no background check, because your right to protect your family shouldn't require anyone's permission. The range on this is 60 feet. That's not

pepper spray distance. That's real distance. It gives you time to think, to move, to get your family safe. It's simple enough that anyone can use it anyone.

Learn the past and decode the present by joining the Torch community at glenbeck.com slash torch. Great to have you with us. It's Pat and Jeffie for Glenn this week, triple-8-727-B-B-E-C-K. We were talking about Sarah McBride, who used to be Tim.

McBride and we don't want a dead name the person right because no we do not actually had body parts cut off to become Sarah McBride so bless her heart but she says trans rights have gone backward over the last five years they've regressed and uh you can't have that you we you want this movement doing nothing but marching forward right to the point where we've all lost our minds and none of us can figure out what a female is, what a male is, who belongs where. We don't want any of that understanding anymore. We're trying to completely eliminate that from our society. That's for sure.

And on the basketball court, it's been interesting lately because there's a couple of men who are challenging the WNBA's position on trans women entering their sport. One of them was Ennis Cantor Freedom. They're going to have to, they're facing it now. It's going to be. Yep. It's an issue. A couple of guys.

He and who's the other one? I don't remember his name. But two of these guys who are very recently in the NBA, they're now declaring eligibility for the WNBA and want to be drafted next year. You know nobody's going to draft them. That just won't happen. That's the only way. It's the only way.

They're going to have to collude to get Inus and Royce White is his name. Royce way. Yeah. And they're going to have to clude to just not draft them. Yes. Right. And I know.

And his Cantor is what, 610? He would dominate that league. He would average 50 points a game with 30 rebounds a game. And probably throw in 15 or 20 blocks just for good measure. I got to say Royce looks like she is in pretty good shape too. Really? Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. And they both have said that they want to play in the WNBA. Yeah, they identify next year. That's. So the coach of Indiana, the Indiana fever was speaking out on some issues, one of which was her player, Sophie Cunningham, being clotheslined as she went in for a layup the other night. And the coach of that team went to the other player who was Dijunay, Carrington and asked if she was okay.

She's the one that clotheslined Sophie Cunningham. Well, she claimed, oh, I didn't see it live. But that's what she said. That's what she said. And she was at the press conference, she was angry. Yeah. At the press for questioning her coaching abilities.

And here's a little listen to that. To be cut eight. It was a little something like this. right there. No, we don't have it? Okay. We don't, really? Okay.

Whoa, whoa, hey, don't holler at me. Okay. Oh, it's a sports video. We don't play sports videos on the show. Can't you get that through your skull, Jeffrey? Stop it. Anyway, I apologize. What she said was that she didn't see it live.

And then when she did, I guess she was, concerned. So yes, she says in this in her rant that she did not see it live and she's, she was angry about it and she thought the, the punishment was correct. But there are pictures, uh, the video of the, the actual, uh, play that had her looking right at it. Looking right at it. Yeah. Now I don't know if she's looking at the third row, uh, past them or she, you know, had some sort of, I will get blind for a few seconds, disease. But she's looking right at it. She's right there.

Yeah, I mean, you can see it in this picture here if you're watching on Blaze TV or The Torch. And she's right there. She's watching the whole thing. She's the woman in the Blazer. Yeah. I mean, she's the coach. Looking right at it. So I'm not quite sure what it means that she did what she's trying to prove saying she didn't see it live.

But whatever. Okay, fine, coach. But she was angry that. people requesting her coaching ability and she also wanted to let people know what's happening to the league. These people trying to

I wish I could remember earlier, her exact phrasing but her phrasing was that the two NBA players who now who now identify as females are, you know, is not going to happen. It's not going to take down our league.

I was like, there's your rules. It's a rule. It's a rule. Which they both stated that we're going by the WNBA guidelines. So how can you deny them entry into that league? You can't. You can't. But the only way now is to collude and not draft them.

I mean, they're going to be. They're going to have to deal with this in a real way, though. They're going to have to say this is for biological women. They're going to have to. Which goes against what they want to do desperately. Yeah. Because they want to be progressive. Yeah.

And they are. I mean, what an. agonizing league the WNBA. I've never seen anything like it. I mean, they've given no support to players like Sophie Cunningham or Caitlin Clark. They're kind of on their own there. And so they'll get what they deserve if Ennis Cantor Freedom and Royce White enter that

league. It would just be fantastic. I would be awesome. I love to see it. And look, you still have the Clay Travis bet. Right? He said that he would give them $10 million. Right. The team, if they play the high school championship team of his choice,

and they'll have a game, we'll put it on pay-per-view, and he'll take on the Aces, right, the Las Vegas team, who won the championship. Whoever won the WMBA? Yeah, I think it's the Las Vegas Aces. There's almost no price I wouldn't pay to watch that game. It could be $1,000. I'm going to come up with that.

I'll take out a business low. if I have to. I'm watching that game. So I'm pretty confident that Clay will make his money back. Oh, which he said he's going to give to charity anyway. So it's a great deal. And I believe he's already earmarked the $10 million. I mean, he's serious about the whole thing. It's fantastic.

It'll never happen. They'd be too embarrassed. You know, the league would be humiliated. And they know it. They would lose to the high school team. And they know it. Have you been following the story of the surrogate mother? who wanted to keep the baby after the couple who she was being the surrogate for

wanted her to have an abortion because they discovered that there was a heart defect in the fetus and so the couple was like, ah, we don't want that anymore. So abort that baby. And the mother wouldn't. She said, no. Good for her. I'm not going to have an abortion. I'm having a baby.

Because there's apparently surgeries, and I think you have to have three of them right after birth, like within two weeks. But they can repair it. It just takes three operations to do that. Okay. But then, I mean, it's still an imperfect child. And that's apparently the theory that the couple is going by. It's an imperfect child. And so they told her to have an abortion.

She said no. and she identifies the baby as baby Gabriel. She just gave birth here in a hospital in Texas. In fact, this was here in Dallas. And the infant will now undergo a life-saving surgery after being diagnosed with that heart defect. Who pays for it? And I think she's trying to raise money to pay for it because the couple's not. It's really an incredible situation.

And there was something very similar. There was a gay couple who hired a surrogate for them, and this was, I think, two years ago, because the baby's now too. But the gay couple wanted an abortion, too, because the baby in that case was diagnosed with a cleft palate or a cleft lip. Which is not, that's not a huge deal. First of all, that can be rectified as well. There is an actor who's had a cleft. This has made a pretty good career. Yeah.

He's not okay for himself. He has. However, he was still born. He was still born. He was still born an imperfect child. Right. Should he have been aborted? No.

I don't think so. But that person went ahead with it too and had the baby, even though the gay couple didn't want that baby anymore. They now have the baby somehow. Can you imagine when that child grows up and realizes everything that went on during the pregnancy, you're not exactly going to be well adjusted. So who has a gay couple took the baby?

Gay couple has the baby, and they're suing the surrogate now for $600,000 because she refused to abort that child. It's unbelievable. But they are raising the child. But they are raising the child. And the child's two years old. Yeah, we're raising you.

How weird is that? We didn't want you, though. Yeah. Right. You know, here's your Cheerios. that's going to be an awkward conversation at some point in the future. Let's wash your face with that nasty little lip I didn't want. Come here.

That's so terrible. It is absolutely terrible. And it's, wow, a problem that is going to have to be dealt with, I think, in the surrogate world, because there's some issues now where this has happened twice within two years. And maybe even more than that, we just haven't heard about it. And maybe, and we even, we even have because I think we have, because sometimes I've heard, I've read the stories where the surrogate, you know, ended up wanting to keep the baby.

Yes. Right. You know, from the couple. And you can understand that, too. Without the birth defect thing in the middle involved in it. Right. And it's like, because you carry the baby for nine months. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah, might develop an attachment there. Women, they're thinking, it's my baby. I love it. Also, pro-life people are not. really all together down with the whole surrogate process? No, they are not. No, they are not.

Sort of, you know, buying a human being, if you will, sort of paying somebody for a pregnancy and the baby they're carrying. Yeah, but there's some issues, you know? I mean, we try to keep people out of work? I mean, it's a good, it's a good gig. It's a good gig. I think you get paid pretty well for that gig. Yeah, sit around and be pregnant for nine months and get paid for it.

I think it's like between $60 and $100,000 that you make for being a serious. You probably get more. You probably hold out for more. Probably could. Look, if you're a good baby maker, I would hold out for more. So I'm sure there's good baby makers all over the country right now that are going to follow your advice. Up to charge. Up to charge.

Event pricing for you. Just a couple of the extra things in our weird society. The whole thing is out of control. Something else to have to deal with. More coming up. Too many people have forgotten that we're not enemies. We're Americans. Glenn Beck returns in a moment.

And somebody had the audacity to ask about a personal life, which you know she will not tell you about that person's alive. She puts her entire life online. All the time. She just, got done doing a bit, which we don't have, but she's got done showing a whole video of her freezing her eggs for future babies. And she, it's a big process. They're going to be sunny side up or scrambled? You know this, you don't just, just go to the doctor's office and they take your eggs and freeze them. It's a process. Sure. You got to, you got to take all this

stuff home and shoot yourself up and warm them up. Okay. And get them all ready to become, become babies or ready to be babies and then they take them and freeze them and so she got done doing that is that personal seems like is that personal life certainly not political so she's walking her dog and they want to know about we just found out that apparently her and her boyfriend who had been together for quite some time weren't they engaged where yes have broken up and i think they've been broken up for a little bit well for a while now so she's been kind of distraught about it oh no and i think because that's why i hate to hear that well i think that's why i think that's I think that's why she's getting her eggs frozen.

Okay. She's bummed. She doesn't know if she'll ever meet another man. Yeah. And she doesn't know how to cook those eggs. Are they going to be sunny side up? Are they going to be scrambled? You could turn them into an omelet.

I don't know. What is she going to do with them? The thing is she could practice. Yeah. She could practice. She could. You never learn anything without breaking a couple of eggs. So anyway, she doesn't want to answer the question.

Okay. From the lady who's asking her on the street about the boyfriend. Okay. Just wondering, are you and Riley Roberts still together? I don't comment on my private life, but thank you. You're not one that she loves Riley and wants to see you guys get married. Is she going to get her a wish? Again, I don't.

I can't. Is there anything? Oh, she's so pissed right here. She wants to get away so bad. She's walking her back. She looks good there, though. That's debatable. We're wearing her jeans, got the jeans outfit on, walking the dog.

What do you mean debate? It's debatable. I'll see how I'll walk in a dog. Those jeans are like eight sizes too big for her. Why? That's the look. I know. Are you insinuating something?

No, I'm not insinuating anything. I feel like, I know that this is. I just said they were too big for her. I know this isn't Pat Gray at least where there's no fat shaming. That's right. But I thought maybe it carried over. No. Not necessarily.

But that's not what I'm doing. I'm actually saying those are really baggy jeans. Okay. That's not a fat thing. Look at that. She looks. She looks. great there. Again, that's debatable. We could debate that whether or not she looks great there.

But good for her for not sharing her personal life. The whole world, she told us she didn't know how to use a garbage disposal. She didn't even know what it was, let alone how to use it. I don't, I don't, just don't lie. Just say you don't want to talk about it. I don't want to talk about it, okay? Leave me alone. When's the last time you had to talk about breaking up with your boyfriend? Let me walk by dog. Make that video be viral. Honestly, I haven't talked about breaking up with my boyfriend for a really long time, really long time. Just want to walk your dog. Yeah, that's all.

That's all. All right, we will be back to put the finishing touches on the week right here tomorrow in the Blenbeck program. And you can check us out on Pat Gray on Leash right before this one.
