Glenn Beck, Nick Di Paolo, and Sujo John dissect the 2020 Democratic debate, contrasting Elizabeth Warren's potential market crash risks with Joe Biden's stability while warning of zero-interest rate capital flight. They analyze Google antitrust litigation, French corporate liability rulings, and Dave Chappelle's protected comedy status versus white comedians' struggles. Sujo John shares his 9/11 survival story and founding "You Can Free Us," urging a shift from historical slavery grievances to solving modern human trafficking globally. Ultimately, the episode argues that addressing current exploitation is essential for healing past wounds and preventing economic collapse under progressive policies. [Automatically generated summary]
I want to talk to you today a little bit about the economy if we have time.
I'm concerned about the Google antitrust litigation.
We have to do it, but I'm concerned on what it means for the economy because that's really one of the dot-com bubble triggers was the antitrust against Microsoft.
So we have to pay attention to the economy.
We have to pay attention to what's happening.
Donald Trump, this makes me again very nervous.
He says that he thinks the Fed should lower rates below zero.
No, Mr. President, that will actually hurt us.
The investment is coming from overseas because we're the only ones with an interest rate above zero.
Anyway, I have no idea what's coming, but if you are paying too much money for your credit cards, if you want to reduce the monthly payment on your loan, please do it now.

A good chair is, I mean, we spend more time in our chairs than we do in bed, which makes me really kind of feel like, wasn't it?
Was it WALL-E where they were all fat and okay?
We really have to stop this.

By the way, I have to tell you, use the promo code.
Last night, my wife and I were buying some blinds.
We were on blinds.com.
And she looked at the price and she's like, wow.
And it's 40% off.
And I said, did you use the promo code?
No, use the promo code back.
She went, she was at checkout.
She put promo code back.
It went from like $2,200 to $1,300.
Oh, my gosh.
I mean, don't forget to use the promo code when you check out at places because it was a bigger savings than I thought.
It was pretty amazing.
Anyway, I want to, before we go to Houston, I just want you to feel better about where you live.
Now, imagine you're coming home, Stu, and you're coming from a business trip.
Okay.
You went someplace and you were there on business.
And you were like, honey, damn this corporation.
I broke my leg and I was working.
And you're like, I mean, you're, Stu, you work in an office.
You sit behind it.
I broke my leg and it was on a business trip.
Okay.
Okay.
And then she found out that you were water skiing.
What would your wife say?
And my business isn't.
Your business is what you do.
Okay.
And there were no cameras or anything else.
You were just out on a boat with a group of people, hot people, water skiing.
Hot people.
Hot people.
Okay.
She may be a little suspicious because something else was going on.
Right.
And would she say, really, that's the company's problem?
Would she?
You're like, the company.
And did the company ask you to go water skiing?
No, it is my free time.
Yeah.
Okay.
No, she wouldn't.
In France, here's what happened.
An employee died on a business trip.
And the family is suing the company.
And the courts just ruled, yes, that is a, that's a responsibility of the company to make sure that their people are protected.
Here's what happened.
he was an employee that had a heart attack while having sex with a stranger in his hotel room.
The firm, she'd have, my wife would have more of a problem with that than the water skiing.
Yeah, well, I didn't want to give you something so insane.
Right.
Right.
I mean, my wife would have a problem with the water skiing.
You know, somebody coming in and going, and I, I, I, I, okay, I broke both my legs because we were having this crazy sex.
I don't think my wife would say, okay.
No.
And she wouldn't say that damn company.
She'd say, I'm leaving.
I'm glad, right?
Glad this happened to you.
Right.
And now I only have to break two arms.
I don't have to break all four limbs.
It saves me some time.
It saves me time, right?
So the family said that they were entitled to compensation because that was a workplace injury.
And so the company said, no, that's not a workplace industry.
I don't know if you know, but he was in his hotel room at night.
We had finished work.
And he picked up a stranger in the bar.
And it was so good.
No offense to rub it in here, but it was so good that he had a heart attack during it.
Is it?
Well, I mean, I guess he wouldn't have been at that hotel if not for the work assignment.
Well, that's what the judge said.
Oh, my God.
That's what the judge said.
The employer is responsible for any accident occurring during a business trip.
He wouldn't have been there in a, quote, extramarital relationship with a perfect stranger had he not been asked to go on the business trip.
Oh my God.
That's amazing.
God bless America.
If you think we're insane, we're not fully there yet.
You don't think that could happen in the United States?
No, please don't wreck.
I just now have a case to bring to you, but I can't look.
I've got the debate tonight.
I'm trying to build myself up with a lot of hope and a lot of good things so I can watch the debate and last maybe two minutes before my head explodes.
I'll say, though, I think it's a good idea to, if you're going to commit a crime in France, wait till you're on a business trip.
Like, if you were to go and murder someone, wouldn't the company be responsible for that murder?
I didn't do it.
I was on a business trip.
I was at a quality inn and I just murdered somebody at the bar.
But if I wasn't working for this company, I wouldn't have never been at the Quality Inn.
I robbed the bank, but I was only in town that one night because business told me to go there.
As long as you can show it's not premeditated, I think you're clear.
I think you are.
I like it.
It was this bank, it was a total stranger to me.
I'd never seen that bank before.
I had no idea.
Just an extramarital robbery with another bank.
If the debate moderator today were to say, if a person were to go and have sex on a trip, a business trip, who should be responsible?
You have to believe at least eight of the 10 people are saying it's the company.
Who's there tonight?
Who's there tonight?
I will tell you the exact number of how many people would say yes.
You have Joe Biden.
He would say, ooh, he's tough.
Come back to him.
Okay.
Bernie Sanders.
Yes.
Company's always at fault for everything.
Yes.
You know, Elizabeth Warren?
Yes.
100%.
100%.
Pete Buttigeg.
Somehow or another, the banks would be involved if Elizabeth Warren was.
That's true.
The banks are always involved.
It would be the company, but really the companies were driven by the banks to do it.
Pete Buttigieg?
Yeah, I think he'd do it.
But he'd put it in a way to where everybody would kind of go, like, yeah, that's kind of common sense.
That's just the average everyday Joe saying that.
You think?
He's not, to me, average everyday Joe.
He's like McKinsey consultant, right?
Like he speaks in that way that we've been in those meetings before with like those high-level consultants and they lay it all out and you're like, I don't think they said anything there.
You don't think that was a lot of syllables, but I guess, yes, yes, yes.
The syllable to content ratio is very.
I didn't say he meant it.
I said, I mean, that's what he's good at.
He's good at just talking around things where you're like, I don't know.
I don't know what he said, but I kind of feel good.
Kamala Harris.
Yeah, she's in.
Bob Frank O'Rourke.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, yes.
He's in because Bob Frank is in ultimate campaign desperation mode and he'll say anything.
He might even say we F-bomb on the stage tonight.
I'll be shocked.
Is that not incredible?
I'll be shocked.
Dude, we got it.
You can use the F-word.
I mean, they all love the deal.
They're all so proud of themselves when they can say, because Donald Trump in a private meeting said S-hole countries.
And so now they all get to say the full word because it's news in quotes.
And so they all come out and you know what Donald Trump said.
And he says the whole word.
No, but and then now Bob Frank is saying the F-word everywhere.
Right.
Because he's so desperate for attention.
His Hispanic priest, Patrick O'Malley, Father Patrick O'Malley.
Oh, very Hispanic.
Very Hispanic.
He's very upset that his young altar boy is using an F-word like that.
And Patrick O'Malley created Salsa Verde, if I'm not mistaken.
Oh, he's very Hispanic.
Very Hispanic.
Very triple Hispanic.
Yeah, yeah.
Trip Hispanic is his official term.
How about Corey Booker?
Yeah, Corey Booker.
Corey Booker's a pandering machine.
So he's going to pander no matter what is said.
He actually was bashing Trump about the bill that they did together on criminal justice reform.
He's like, Chrissy Teigen, the model slash wife of someone who's accomplished things, has wrote some really nasty thing with all sorts of swears and stuff at Donald Trump.
And he came out and he's like, another example of Donald Trump targeting minority women.
It's like, wait a minute, she was calling him like all sorts of swears.
And I don't even think he named her.
She came back with some really like vile rant against it.
And he's like, I'm on Team Chrissy.
Oh.
Wait, Chrissy Teigen is now a victim of something?
Yes, Chrissy Teigen is apparently the victim.
Her poor multi-million dollar status.
Really?
And she's a minority?
I don't know.
I honestly don't care.
You know why everyone else is so obsessed with this?
Like, who cares what her skin color is?
The next thing you know, you're going to be saying, no, the company's not responsible for that extramarital affair heart attack.
Trump Targets Minority Women00:10:36
So we have three more.
I think we've named seven so far.
So we have Julian Castro.
Yes.
Amy Klobuchar.
I don't even know that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No idea.
Not really relevant.
And Andrew Yang.
Yang would say no.
Yeah.
Yang would say no.
And I think Biden would just have to look at everybody else.
And if everybody else was saying yes, then he'd say yes.
And then he'd probably flub six, seven sentences in a row.
Yeah, he'd pronounce yes as okay.
I think that's a yes from Joe Biden.
Yeah, definitely wasn't a no.
All right, we're gonna we're gonna talk a little bit about the debate tonight in Houston.
One of our one of our writers and journalists from the Blaze and Glennbeck.com is going down.
I want to play bingo today.
And I'm going to try to convince him to shout out bingo.
I just don't know what word yet.
All right.
Has this ever happened to you?
One day you notice that all the blinds in your house look like they, you know, they stop to hail hand grenades.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was on last night, blinds.com.
We were picking out, we were picking out blinds and shades.
And, you know, we were at blinds.com.
And I just told you a few minutes ago, I didn't know I was going to do a commercial for it today.
And we get down to it and we're putting all these blinds in and it was like, I don't know, $2,200 or $2,300.
And my wife looked at me and went, and I said, I know, but 40% off.
And she said, okay, that's just a lot of money for blinds.
You sure you want to do blinds?
And I said, oh, have you used a promo code?
And she said, what is it?
I said, that's literally my response.
Thanks so much for listening to the show, sweetheart.
I said, it's promo code Beck, hard to remember.
You spell it B-E-C-K.
She put it in, and it went from $2,200 to like $1,300.
And I was like, put it in again.
See what happens.
I don't think that's how it works.
Right.
So we have been looking at blinds, and we went to other places and we did our homework, and they were much more expensive than the $2,200.
And then put the promo code in.
And hello?
Make sure you put the promo code in.
Make sure you do that because it worked out pretty well for us last night.
May I recommend if you're looking for blind shade, shutters, drapes, anything for your windows, blinds.com has it.
They do a really good job, and you are going to find an easy way to do it online.
Plus, you're going to save a buttload of money.
Blinds.com.
Right now, I don't know what their special is.
I think it's 40% off.
Yeah, up to September 15th, get 40% off blinds.com.
Plus, you'll get an extra 20 bucks off at blinds.com when you use the promo code back.
So make sure you use the promo code back.
What are you yelling at your wife for?
You shouldn't have been surprised by this either.
You just, you're reading an offer that says 40% off every day.
No, no, no.
Are you?
It just doesn't seem like it'd be my wife, did you put the promo code in?
Because the price was cheaper than the blinds we were looking at from someplace else.
And so I said, she said, that's still a lot of money.
You sure you want to do this?
And I said, yes, but have you put the promo code in?
And so when we did, it was 40% off.
I hate you.
I hate you so much, Stu.
Blinds.com.
Make sure you use the promo code back.
We pause for 10 seconds.
Welcome to our writer and journalist, Kevin Ryan, who's written several things for us this week.
He's writing something on, is it on The Blaze or is it on Glenbeck?
It's on both.
It's on Glenbeck.com and The Blaze.
A great story about your encounter with, and I don't mean that in a French sort of business way, your encounter with Joe Biden, which is interesting and very, very funny.
And so we all know this story about his comparison, poor kids to white kids.
But one thing you won't find anywhere else is the overall view of the room, which was hilarious.
I mean, it was just like a scene straight out of a comedy.
Like there was a lady probably three or four feet away from me because everybody's kind of crowded in who was really drunk.
She kept sneaking out of the room and she like every time she came back in, she shoved everybody aside a little bit harder because she was just hitting something.
Vodka or wine or something.
Now, is it a requirement to be drunk at a Joe Biden rally?
I think you probably have to drink.
He makes sense.
He makes more sense.
You're like, I'm not.
Yeah.
Beautiful status.
It was a lot of fun to write.
Yeah.
And I think the tone of this piece, just like the rest of the series, it's a lot different than my profile series.
Because you did the profile on Jordan Peterson and Rubin.
Deborah Rubin, Deborah Sau.
Really good.
You really do.
You just read those around on the Blaze.
They're great.
You're a really good writer.
So you can find that at theblaze.com, also at glennbeck.com.
A very great, great story about Joe Biden and being in the room with Joe Biden.
Now you're going to be in the room again with him tonight.
That's right.
Yeah.
You're going down to Houston.
You're leaving here in a few minutes.
And you're going to first, you're going to see the giant socialism sucks or whatever it says, the banner that is flying around Houston today.
I didn't know about that.
Yeah, paid for by Donald Trump.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
So that's fantastic.
Only in Texas, man.
I got to tell you, I just love this state.
But anyway, I want you to go in.
What do you know where you're going to be?
Are you sitting in the audience?
I'm not really sure yet.
Stu and I were looking at the media.
My credentials.
Yeah.
I don't really know where I'm going to be.
It's going to be, there's a story there.
It's going to be a blast.
Yeah, you're credentialed with us.
You may be watching it in your hotel room about 10 miles away.
I'd like to see, what should the word be that when one of them brings up this word or this policy that he should scream bingo?
Just scream bingo as loud as you can.
Yeah, I love that.
You probably shouldn't do it as a journalist, but as a friend, you definitely should.
I mean, you could certainly do it when Andrew Yang talks about universal basic income.
Oh, that's immediately.
That should be on your card.
Yeah.
The debate bingo card.
What else should they?
I mean, I think, what's going to be the big focus of this today?
People are talking about this as if it's the biggest debate that they've had so far.
And I kind of disagree with that.
The next debate, all of these people have already qualified for it.
Plus, Tom Steyer has qualified for it.
So there's 11 now have qualified for the next debate.
And also Gabbard and others have chances to get into the next debate.
So I don't know that this is the biggest one so far.
I think it's going to be kind of a low-profile one.
And it's going up against the National Football League, which is something Andrew Yang complained about.
Like, don't put the debate against the NFL.
Come on.
Even I want to watch football tonight.
I don't care.
I don't care if it's Carolina, Tampa.
I don't care what it is.
I'm in.
I am watching it.
So it is a, I think it's going to be.
You could call bingo out every time somebody mentions Trump besides the moderator.
Oh, yeah.
And then you could just blame it on Tourette's.
Say, I'm sorry.
I just have Tourette's because you'll be screaming it all night.
Yes.
That would probably be.
Bingo.
Yeah.
Bingo.
Bingo.
I love that was your first reaction, too.
And I was like, I got press credentials.
You're like, we should play bingo.
It's the sort of journalism we do here.
Oh, yeah.
As you've realized.
Well, not the blaze, but glennbeck.com.
And technically, I think you work for Glennbeck.com or do you work for the Blaze?
Yeah.
Both.
Both.
Okay.
So just say, bing.
All right.
Maybe just say, go.
Yeah.
Please get out.
Yeah, I don't know what to expect out of this one.
They're making it into a big deal because Warren and Sanders and Biden will be on the same page.
I feel like the real one stage, you also mean Paige, which is very good.
It is.
Economy of words.
Yes, it is.
Oh, you're right.
I think Sanders has something to do here.
Like, Biden and Warren, I would say, are the two, or one, two right now.
Even though Sanders is right there in the polls with Warren, you know, Warren and Sanders are competing for the same voters.
Biden doesn't have to go after them.
He can kind of sit back.
He's going to get attacked by people like Julian Castro and Bob Frank.
And Bob Frank O'Rourke is going to come after him to try to make news, right?
But I think that you have to, if you're Sanders, you have to do something to figure out how to expand past the 15% you've been stuck at since this campaign launched.
The guy's been right in the same place.
He's not going to.
He's got to.
He's done.
He's done.
I think he is too.
But I mean, he doesn't.
Warren is not.
He is.
Warren just has to look better than Sanders without cutting him off at the knees.
You know what I mean?
She needs to pull his numbers down.
You know, with white Democratic voters, Warren is beating Biden.
Yeah, Warren does the best.
With Hispanics, I think Sanders.
Sanders does the best.
With black voters, it's Biden by a mile.
I mean, and that's the problem with this for Biden is that the first state that has decent representation of African-American voters is state number four, South Carolina.
So he's got to get through three states where he's not demographically advantaged to get there.
That's not going to be easy.
And Warren could, there's this scenario where Warren wins Iowa and New Hampshire and Nevada.
And then you're going.
And then you're going to, she's a steamroller.
She might be.
Yeah.
I mean, he'll be the only one that could stop her at that point.
Yeah.
I love what Jim Kramer said about it yesterday.
And we'll get to that here coming up in just a second.
You're listening to Glenn Beck.
All right.
Dave Chappelle Saves the Nation00:12:20
Got a great deal from Tocovis that I want to tell you about.
And I'll tell you about it in just a second.
It is only available free to you because Takovis has been so appreciative of everybody from this audience that is going to their site and actually purchasing things.
And it's hard.
Once you go to Tocovis and you see the quality of their clothing, of their belts, of their, you know, all their leather products and their boots, you will see that they are twice the quality at half the price.
Now, free gift.
Right now, if you make a $150 purchase and you enter the promo code Beck at checkout, again, make sure you do that.
You'll get a free hand-stitch calf skin card case in beautiful bourbon color, $45 value.

It's great.
Usually 45, 50 bucks.
You get it for free with a $150 purchase at T-E-C-O-V-A-S dot com slash Beck.
That's tocovis.com slash Beck.
Find your pair of cowboy boots.
And remember, enter the promo code back at checkout.
That's exactly right.
And that's the problem.
Welcome to the program.
Nick DiPaolo is with us in about half an hour.
Just going to check in with him and see what's on his mind.
You know, I don't know.
He follows politics, but I don't know if he follows it like we follow it.
Do you think he follows it pretty closely?
I mean, he does a daily show.
And so I think he has to follow it.
But, you know, it's not politics.
But he remains funny.
So he must not be in it like we are.
Because I know he loves the country.
I know he, you know.
And if you love the country and you follow it every day, don't you all want to hang yourself every day?
Don't you kind of like, don't think I can do another day.
It's tempting.
It is tempting.
It is tempting.
Suicides are up.
It might be because we are all paying attention to what people are doing in Washington.
Pat is here from the Pat Gray Radio Roundup, otherwise known as Pat Gray Unleashed.
Point of personal privilege.
He, him, his.
Okay, thank you.
Yeah.
Pat is the host of that podcast, which you can hear live as he records it every morning, right before this one, or you can download it at your discretion.
And you can find that wherever you get podcast or on Blazetv.com.
Pat.
Yes.
Let's talk about the craziness in Philadelphia.
Yeah.
Philadelphia is acting police commissioner.
People are calling for her to resign because 25 years ago, she wore a t-shirt.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
But she wore a t-shirt.
Here's what the t-shirt said.
Are you ready for this?
Yeah, now she's the police commissioner.
The police commissioner in Philadelphia.
Right.
She wore a t-shirt.
And it said, L-A-P-D, we treat you like a king.
Of course, that's not funny at all.
Oh, it's not funny.
That's not funny at all.
No.
And Rodney.
Yes.
Yes.
Oh, I never thought.
Double on Tong perhaps there.
Yeah.
So they're just going to be.
So she came in.
She came in to work, what, last week and was wearing that?
No, no, just a photo surfaced of her from 25 years ago.
25 years ago.
She had the t-shirt on.
And now she, you know, they're demanding that she resign because of it.
I mean, you're not going to be able to.
You better start deleting your Twitter feed right now.
Our kids are doomed.
No Facebook pages.
Be careful of your wardrobe.
I mean, yeah, our kids are going to be.
Our kids are.
Look at what people say on Twitter.
All the time.
All the time.
And you know what?
Here's the thing.
How, when you're a kid, when you're a 15-year-old boy, you're not saying things necessarily that you believe.
You're saying them because you know you can get a rise out of people.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Because it's just antagonizing.
When you're a 15-year-old boy, you don't know what you believe.
Right.
You don't know what you believe.
And it's not, and it's not hatred.
I mean, it could be, you know, I saw it.
I saw Jeff, what's his name, Bowers, and the way he was, you know, beating up on those other kids.
And he had real hatred in his heart.
So Stephen King tells the truth.
But for the most part, kids are just saying things that...
Yeah, you can go back and find any insensitive joke from a kid at 15 years old.
It's usually made because they think it's going to piss a bunch of people off.
It's not made because they have a deep-seated ideology.
It's just like you're saying.
And when you're thinking, I'm not supposed to say, let me say that.
Right.
And when you're young, especially with comedy, when you're young.
You don't cut funny.
You don't cut funny.
That was literally our theme really for the show back in the day.
Back in the day.
You don't cut funny.
You don't cut funny.
Is it funny?
Don't cut.
But it's really offensive.
Is it funny?
Yes, don't cut funny.
You can't go.
That was the first thing I told everybody that came to work for me on the show.
Don't cut funny.
You leave it in.
Don't cut funny.
Now, if it's not funny, you know, we were never, we didn't invent, you know, the claptor.
That hadn't been invented yet.
Like, ah, not funny, but I'm laughing in approval.
Now, I mean, how are our kids going to survive?
The only hope is saturation, I think, for kids today.
Think about it this way.
I was reading, going back through, we were talking about history yesterday, and I was clicking around through a bunch of stories and went down some wormhole.
And there was a story about Dan Quayle and Dan Quayle.
They actually found the potato kid recently.
Do you know this?
They found the potato kid.
They found the potato kid.
Wait, wait, for anybody who doesn't know this story, he's a child that Dan Quayle had kept in a dark box underneath his refrigerator sink with the potatoes.
It was a horrible horror when we found this out.
And it was initially because Dan Quayle impregnated a potato.
So it was a very strange story.
But the potato has a lot of eyes, and he couldn't take the way the potato was looking at him.
But that's a different story.
Yeah, there's a lot of justifications for what he did, and we're not going to get into them now.
But so he, if you remember, of course, he went up and the kids spelled the word potato correctly and he added on the E.
And then there was a back and forth about how it used to be spelled.
By the way, it used to be spelled that way.
Yeah, exactly.
So, you know, there's a long story.
But, I mean, it basically, I mean, Quayle made the point essentially that it ruined his life.
Yeah, it certainly ruined his career and was a, it really dramatically affected his life in a terrible way.
We have politicians that misspell words a hundred times a day on Twitter and no one even bothers noticing, right?
At some point, there's a saturation of these things where people just don't care anymore.
And maybe we'll get to that point because they all have so much crap on their back.
They all said so many offensive things on Twitter over the years that you can't hire anybody.
Right.
Yeah.
So no one cares unless it's the algorithm that does it.
If it's the algorithm and the algorithm has been written by somebody who has an agenda, it will only silence those people.
It's doing it now.
We're doing it in real time.
It's only silencing.
Yeah.
And for instance, let's take this.
You want to talk about saturation.
The saturation of the story two years ago that Planned Parenthood was selling body parts.
Okay.
Everybody was talking about it.
And what did the media say?
Not true, not true.
This is made up.
That's edited videos, blah, Right?
Now we have Planned Parenthood admitting in a court of law and the people that were procuring it admitting under oath that yes, they were selling them.
And the company that was procuring them testified that they were taking beating hearts out of intact bodies.
So the child was born and killed after birth.
That's now under oath in a court of law.
Nobody's talking about it.
Nobody cares.
Because it's kind of like, I don't know.
Yeah, we missed that boat.
Yeah, it's not going to get back on it now.
Yeah, you're not going to get on it.
So if you just saturate it with something, when it turns out to be true, it doesn't matter.
Caliphate.
Caliphate.
Yeah.
You sat there getting beat up for three years about how a caliphate might become.
And then all of a sudden there was a caliphate.
There was a caliphate.
And then like the New York Times just starts a podcast called Caliphate.
I know.
These people are out there criticizing you like crazy for those years.
They're like crazy conspiracy theorist.
All of this stuff.
And then they go make all this money on it.
Right.
I know, I know, I know.
But that's what happens.
That's what happens.
I was reading an article the other day that was titled, Dave Chappelle Will Save the Nation.
And when I read it, I thought, yeah, you know what?
If he survives this, he might save the nation.
Have you seen Nick DePaulo?
No.
Nick DePaulo is not on Netflix.
I mean, he wrote for Chris Rock.
The guy is really, really funny.
And one of those comedians that all those guys respect and admire.
Jon Stewart on his last show said, this was a joy, and I can't wait to go back and be on stage with people like Nick DePaulo.
And they named another comedian.
He named another comedian, two comedians.
So I mean, Nick is really, really good, but he's not doing the Netflix special because he's on the other side.
But he is.
If you think that what's his name that you say, Chappelle, is politically incorrect, go on YouTube and look for Nick DiPaulo.
Really?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I watched him and I'm like, how is he getting away with it?
He's coming up in a few minutes.
How is he getting away with saying all of these things?
And it's because he's funny.
He's very, very funny.
You don't cut funny.
Right.
And I think we're at that point to where people don't care anymore.
They're starting to.
I've never seen a funnier routine than Dave Chappelle's.
I mean, that is an hour and 10 minutes of just absolute brilliance.
And Netflix does take some chances with this stuff.
Yeah, they do, and he's not really – I wouldn't call that a left-wing routine either because every time you think he's going there, there's a little twist.
Yeah.
And he hits both sides.
But it's also not a right-wing routine.
No, not at all.
I think people, conservatives, are like, oh, well, finally, someone's saying some conservative things.
Really, he's just making observations about the world and not caring which side it falls on.
And that is like it's a superpower these days.
It is.
I mean, Bill Burr has a special up there now, which is getting the same type of buzz as the Chappelle one.
They did.
I just launched it.
I tell you, there is a chance that comedy saves the country.
Yeah.
I mean, you know, there is that possibility.
We lost all sense of humor.
And, you know, we've talked about it for years.
How do you write something crazier than what's happening?
You know what I mean?
And it's just the observations that no one is willing to say anymore that are true and funny.
Because it used to be.
If you were joking about something, you were kind of let off the hook, right?
You didn't lose your job if you were joking about something.
And clearly people knew you were joking about it.
Well, that doesn't apply anymore at all.
The t-shirt.
At all.
LAPD treats you like that's clearly not serious.
No one should get fired for that.
Right.
Particularly.
I mean, I guess if she was the police commissioner today, maybe it would be a passion.
She's swearing it 25 years ago.
Right.
I'm meeting with the police commissioners in Los Angeles, and I thought I'd wear this t-shirt to green.
That might be a problem.
Yeah, not a good idea.
Thanks, Matt.
That's when it takes balls, though.
Jokes No Longer Get You Off the Hook00:05:02
Putting it on 25 years ago is easy.
Putting it on in a meeting today.
That's where you cross a great line.
All right.
You know, it's at the end of the summer and when more burglaries happen than any other time.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.
There's some audio that we missed yesterday because 9-11, and I want to make sure we get it in today.
You need to hear it.
The press has made it sound like the Virginia governor was not talking about infanticide.
There was testimony up on the hill two days ago that you need to hear.
Jill Stanek is a nurse.
She was at Christ Hospital in Oaklawn, Illinois, and she spoke about her experiences watching something horrifying when speaking on behalf of the Born Alive Act in Washington.
When I heard Virginia Governor Ralph Northam, who's a pediatric neurologist, describe during an interview the process by which doctors determined to shelve unwanted abortion survivors, it hit painfully close to home to me.
About third trimester abortions, he said, and I'm quoting: if a mother's in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen.
The infant would be delivered.
The infant would be kept comfortable.
The infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired.
Governor Northam was right.
This is exactly what happens, I know, because I cared for a dying baby on the other side of that decision.
My experience was 20 years ago, but as Governor Northam made clear, this is still happening today.
I was a registered nurse at Christ Hospital in Oaklawn, Illinois when I learned that it committed abortions into the second and third trimester.
The procedure called induced labor abortion sometimes resulted in babies being aborted alive.
And if they were aborted alive, they were allowed to die without any medical care or intervention whatsoever.
They were given what was called comfort care, made comfortable, as Governor Northam indicated.
One night, a nursing coworker was taking a little abortion survivor to the soiled utility room to die.
And when she told me what she was doing, I couldn't bear the thought of this suffering child dying alone.
He'd been aborted because he had Down syndrome.
And he was between 21 and 22 weeks old, about the size of my hand.
And he didn't move very much because he was using all of his energy attempting to breathe.
And I remember toward the end of his life, I couldn't tell if he was alive or not unless I held him up against the light to see if I could see his heart beating through his chest wall because their skin is so thin at that age.
And after he was pronounced dead, I folded his little arms across his chest.
I tied them together with a little string.
I wrapped him in a shroud and I took him to the morgue where we took all of our dead patients.
I will tell you that she went on in that testimony to talk about how when it was discovered by the people that Christ Hospital, Christ Hospital, they made a nice little room where you could baptize the baby as they were dying or whatever.
And she said, I took pictures of the room.
Lying on Issues of Life and Death00:04:02
All of this nonsense that the governor of Virginia was, you know, that's not what he said.
That's an out and out lie.
It is a lie.
We are not disagreeing on facts anymore.
We have people who are lying and on issues of life and death.
I mean, we're talking about, hey, did Saddam Hussein have weapons of mass destruction?
We shouldn't have gone there.
Okay.
How about this?
How about this?
You're lying about life.
People are killing children in hospitals after birth.
Do we care?
You're listening to Glenn Beck.
You know, we've had a tough, tough week with 9-11, the remembrance yesterday, and the stupid things the press were saying yesterday about it.
My head just hurts.
And it's Thursday.
I thought we could stand a few laughs.
I wanted to check in with our friend Nick DiPaulo.
If you don't know who Nick DiPaolo is, you need to.
But I warn you, he is very politically incorrect.
And to say that he is, well, he probably doesn't book a lot of concerts in Salt Lake City is an understatement.
He's saying the things that you just, you'll watch and you'll think, how is this guy still available on any platform?
He is taking comedy seriously, making it funny again and saying the things that he's always been saying.
He's just not giving up on it.
Nick DePaulo joins us in one minute.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Okay, so Victoria, she wrote in, she said, my pillow was a gift I got before going away to college.
And I've had this pillow for about five years now.
I just want you to know, Glenn, I couldn't be happier.

Ladies and gentlemen, from the comfort, I believe, of his own home in Georgia, it's Nick DiPaulo.
How are you?
Not my home.
I have an actual studio.
You have an actual studio.
I'm doing very well.
Yeah, good.
So, can I go?
Your physical appearance since O'Reilly days has I love it.
Nick DiPaulo from Georgia Studio00:07:28
You got the white hair, the goatee.
Let me just hear you say, come down to KFC at Kaya.
You know, it's really, you know, it's really horrible.
My family has white hair very young.
My sister started getting theirs at 30.
I was the last to get it, and I always wanted it because my grandfather had it.
But I've turned into my grandfather.
And if that's not bad enough, I do look exactly like Colonel Sanders.
It's not cool.
It's not popular with the women.
Well, the white shirt and the black tie is not helping.
I mean, put a bolo tie on me.
Okay, all right.
As you have pointed out, Glenn, though, you are fatter than Colonel Sanders.
Yeah, when I actually looked at a picture of Colonel Sanders, I am in worse shape than the guy who is selling fried chicken out of the trunk of his car.
Yeah, but he does P90X three times a week.
How you doing, Nick?
I'm doing good.
How are you doing?
You look good.
All right.
That's really not.
I didn't mean that.
No.
That was not stuck.
No, sure, sure.
You didn't mean it that way.
So, Nick, let me ask you: tonight is the Democratic debate in Houston.
It's tonight.
It's tonight.
Going up against football.
Gee, I wonder who's going to win in the ratings.
What are your thoughts on Joe Biden?
Well, Joe Biden's out of his mind, and he has no business.
He has no business being in the race.
I mean, I can't believe he's still in the lead.
This guy, you saw him, he doesn't even know what state he's in.
Well, I love here coming to New Hampshire.
It's one of the most beautiful states.
Just looking around the Rocky Mountains.
They got the smoky mountains.
And I'll tell you, I love Denver.
So, but is he the guy that is doing well just because everybody else is nuts?
I mean, go through them.
Bernie Sanders.
Well, he's a Jew living in Vermont.
Do I have to say anymore?
I don't know what that means exactly.
Well, he hates the 1%, everything 1%.
They're getting all the tax breaks.
They're getting all the money.
I hate 1% milk.
I graduated pop office out of my class.
I don't like that.
Why do you live in Vermont, Bernie?
Well, I love Subaroos.
I love women in flannel.
I love Covered Bridges and HealthKa.
First of all, he talks like me.
I'm from Boston.
He puts R's on words where, you know, I'll have a vodka and Ponic, and I have to head.
I'll be touring in Nebraska and the butter.
And damn it, I wrote the bill, damn it.
I like the spunk.
I got to be honest with you.
His politics, forget about it.
You made a good point, though.
They're so far left.
And if I was Bernie, I'd be PO'd because Liz Warren is just rehashing his ideas.
He had the nerve to come out and admit he was a socialist, and now she's just trying to steal his thunder.
But R's on the word where there should be R's.
Yes.
And adding them where they don't exist.
That's what Brooklyn people do and Boston people.
Go ahead, sir.
No, go ahead.
Go ahead.
12 cups of coffee.
How about the fact that he doesn't understand money?
He says, I don't understand why we can't pay teachers like ball players.
Well, you do.
We pay him like AA ball players.
A $30 sample.
But, I mean, he doesn't understand that.
Bernie, let me explain it to you.
When you can get 20 million people to tune in to a science teacher rubbing a balloon on a kid's cardigan to teach electricity and then sell 12,000 beers at 10 bucks a pop, then we can pay him.
Look, there's only one type of teacher who should get paid like a pro ball player, and that's the young female teachers who sleep with their 14-year-old boy students.
I will actually take them to I will actually represent them in arbitration.
I'll go right into the principal's office and say, Mrs. Johnson deserves another $200,000 this year.
Well, why is that?
Well, she slept with half the basketball team last month, and look at her numbers.
She's having a great year.
I don't think that's helpful.
I don't think that's helpful.
So what do you make of Pete Buddhaj?
I hate him more than Hillary.
That's all I have to say about that.
This guy is a smarmy little sanctimonious, holier than thou.
I can't stand this guy.
And he's on this whole, I mean, he passes himself off as this, you know, religious whatever.
And now he's quoting the Bible.
He says, inaction on, you know, climbing on inaction on, you know, climate change is a sin, he says.
So what are you going to go into the confessional?
Bless me, Father, if I have sinned.
I have sexual thoughts about my neighbor's wife.
I murdered a person 20 years ago, and I am not using paper straws.
Damn it.
Come on.
I was just in Los Angeles last week and they handed, you know, you, I asked for a straw.
They don't even give you a plastic straw.
I mean, you have to ask for it.
And then they reward you with this paper straw that I hated those when they were passing out milk when I was in school.
They're horrible.
They're horrible.
You want me to believe that Hollywood stars are snorting coke with paper straws?
I mean, come on.
Matt McCronic has 19 paper cuts in his left sinus.
Come on.
It's all belonging.
Just don't get rid of the crazy straws.
That's all I ask.
There's a couple of things that I saw today.
There was a story about a 77-year-old guy who's being released from prison because Trump has said this is ridiculous.
He was digging a trench around his property because he was afraid of fires.
And he dug a trench and he kind of made a little moat.
He took a two-foot stream and channeled it in so that water was around his property.
And the EPA threw him in jail.
He's 77.
Threw him in jail.
I didn't know Bernie owned a shovel.
Yes, well, and he's not in jail.
But Trump has just let him out.
And now, while that's good, now the EPA is saying that they want to eliminate all animal testing.
Look, I said this on a special years ago.
I said, as far as animal testing, you know, if hooking a monkey's brain up to a car battery is going to save somebody from dying of AIDS, I have two things to say.
The red is positive and the black is negative.
Okay?
If you don't want to use animals, let's replace the animals with career politicians.
Let's pump some chemicals and solvent into Gerald Nadler and see how he does after a week.
Are you smoking, Glenn?
No, he just reacts like normal human beings do when they walk up a bunch of stairs when he laughs.
Like that's the physical activity.
Chemicals in Gerald Nadler's System00:02:43
Yeah, no, this is quite a workout for me.
All right.
It sounds like you have tuberculosis.
You've been hanging out on the Mexican border?
Yeah, I have been.
I live in Texas now.
By the way, you moved to Georgia.
Yeah.
How do you like it?
I love it down here.
I moved to a very red state.
And first thing I did when I got down here, I wanted to be southern, so I bought a handgun and I put it on my lap and I went through Chick-fil-A drive-through.
And I thought I was going to scare the person in the window.
I didn't even phase them.
They're like, well, you got listened, a 38 snub nose.
That's a 642 lightweight, ain't it?
Yeah, I shot my stepdad with that.
He's trying to mess around with my sister on the 4th of July.
And I'm like, that's a nice story, Diane.
Anyways, can I get some ketchup?
All right, back with more from Nick DePaulo here in just a second.
First, let me break for one minute.
We've been trusting Norton as the premier source of security for our computers for a long time.
All of us have.
Norton security.
We know it.
And they continue to outdo themselves in the constant struggle to protect us from cybercrime.
They now have a very easy-to-use virtual private network or VPN.
It uses bank-grade encryption to hide your online activity.
A VPN, it takes the information that you're sending and receiving and essentially builds a secure tunnel around it.
This is bank-grade encryption.
So cyber criminals can't see who's connected to the Wi-Fi.
It blocks the companies that want to track your browsing activities.
You and I know that, you know, it is crazy how much information we are just giving these companies that are not working in our favor.
Yes, they can tell us, you know, the character name of Reese Witherspoon in Legally Blonde, but is that worth giving all of your information to them for?
Norton Secure VPN, it's seamless.
Just install, log in once, and let it run in the background.
Keep the prying eyes out of your business with a secure Wi-Fi connection through Norton Secure VPN.
Now, it starts at $3.33 a month for the first year with annual enrollment.
You can find it at norton.com/slash VPN.
Norton.com/slash VPN.
Terms and conditions do apply.
We break for 10 seconds, Station ID.
Westworld Versus Fantasy Island00:14:44
How many shows a year do you do, Nick?
How?
How often are you out on the road?
Not as much as I used to be, Glenn.
And that's the whole idea.
I just hate the road, you know.
So I used to do 30, 35 weeks a year when I was young and single and chasing women, and it was fun.
And, you know, but after your eighth time back to Cleveland, you know, how many times can you visit the Bowling Hall of Fame?
And so I probably, I don't know.
It's probably around 15 weekends.
So have you been affected by this quashing of comedy over the last 10, 15 years?
Well, yes and no.
I mean, I'm sure I didn't do myself any favors like landing gigs as far as TV and actual Hollywood show business.
That's the thing you don't know.
But as far as live performances, I came out of the closet as a righty on Tough Crowd in like 2002.
I was, you know, I was spewing the term cultural Marxism on that show, which was a brilliant idea by me.
I have $11 in the bank.
I'm on Natural TV.
You know what I mean?
Everybody gives Dennis Miller and Schwarzenegger credit for being righties.
I'm like, yeah, well, they had 70 million in the bank when they, uh, so, but, so I, I got, I got pigeonholed as a conservative.
I'm not.
I'm a comedian who happens to lean right and is in.
So, so people came out and thank God Trump came along.
So, you know, but yes and no.
I a few people walk out of my shows all the time.
Well, but it may not be for your politics.
I mean, you are, you are my clothing.
Yeah.
I mean, you are, you are, you say everything.
Uh, you say everything.
Let me ask you what your thought is on the Dave Chappelle special.
I absolutely loved it.
Dave Chappelle, and I've said this, okay, and I know him.
I like him as a person.
I honestly, I don't think Richard Pryor or Chris Rock have anything on Dave Chappelle.
I think he's a genius.
I've written for Chris Rock.
I wrote for Chris Rock, and Chappelle is just, he's like a jazz musician.
He's smooth.
He's smart.
He's concise.
That being said, my only problem is people are coming out there and people on my side going, he, boy, he's fearless.
Well, he, first of all, he's a famous black guy with 100 million in the bank.
What's he got to lose?
I'm fearless.
I'm a 57-year-old white guy.
I've been saying this stuff forever.
That's why I'm doing a show on the back of an Applebee's right now.
But that special was tremendous.
And I'm glad somebody that's famous and has that many people watching got the message.
But I've been preaching that.
And if you watch my special, Breath of Fresh Air, I touched on basically the same things Dave Chappelle did.
His came out a few months after mine.
We touched on the same subjects.
People should put them side by side and go, this is how it is for a white guy.
So I just don't like that they're going, oh, he's fearless.
A famous black guy in show business has never gotten trouble for anything other than OJ in a couple of extreme cases.
But I mean, he's not going to get trouble for anything he says.
And so you don't think this, because he has gotten pushback.
Yeah, pushback's one thing, but being canned or being, you know, put under the radar for the rest of your showbiz career is another thing.
And that's never going to happen to Chappelle.
I use this example.
Remember Tracy Morgan?
His wife was pregnant.
He actually came out and said, if my baby's gay, I'm going to kill it.
He actually said that.
And, you know, six months later, he has a new series on TBS.
I mean, you know, I mean, tell me a white guy that could say something that outrageous and not be banned from the planet.
So I, I, I, but he's a genius.
Chappelle's a genius, and he's in my top five easy.
And I suggest everybody watch that special, but I, then, then watch mine.
And I'm not comparing myself to him as a comedian because he's tremendous.
Uh, but you know, you're going to see the point of view from a white, straight, 57-year-old white guy.
And he has a little more leeway to say stuff that I do, even though I cut loose.
You, you do cut loose.
He is, you know, I think he's being, people are assigning things to him that he didn't necessarily say.
His jokes, many of them take you a minute before you say, wait, wait a minute, did he say that or did he say this?
He's making a point, but you can't really pin him down.
He's just willing to say things.
But I wouldn't say that he's, for instance, you know, pro-life, but I don't know that he's pro-abortion either.
I don't know where he stands, which I think is part of the genius of the way he wrote this.
Do you agree with this or not?
Yeah, I do.
It's funny to say that because the next hour I'm working on, I have about 10 minutes on abortion, and you won't know where I stand either.
You know, look, I can't say people assume I'm pro-life because I lean right in my politics, but I'd be a hypocrite to say that because when I was young, I got a few girls pregnant, and I was glad to planned parenthoods or, I don't know, Midas Mufflers.
I can't remember what they used to do.
Beautifully put, Nick.
Beautifully put.
I have like, get her up on the jack.
I have no.
He's playing at the Vatican next week.
Just get your tickets now.
But you're right.
He sort of has the Michael Jordan.
Remember Michael Jordan's quote?
They said, why don't you ever talk politics?
And he says, because both Republicans and Democrats buy sneakers.
And it's sort of a Chappelle sort of.
But I don't think he's doing that intentionally.
I mean, that's how he thinks.
He's looking at both sides fairly.
And you don't see that from too many comics.
And that was the genius of it.
Like you said, you could pin him down.
And it's really funny on top of that.
And look, Netflix is Netflix, but let's not downplay the success of a breath of fresh air.
I mean, you're up 800,000 views now on YouTube.
You can watch it for free.
I mean, it's done really well.
People have a thirst for this right now.
That's exactly right.
They do have a thirst for it.
I'm lucky Trump came along because, yeah, I'm brutally honest about it.
So wait, wait, wait.
Is it Trump or is it that people are starting to see the effects in their own life?
You know, everybody wants to be nice.
You know, hey, don't say that.
They're handicapped.
It makes them feel bad.
Okay, I don't want to.
But then you get to a point to where you're like, shut up.
Shut up.
This is affecting my life.
There's a six foot four guy in a dress that's now wrestling my daughter in female wrestling.
Shut up.
And so I think they're just, this is played out long enough to where people are seeing it affect their own life in a negative way.
Well, that's some of it.
But when Trump, look, this is when I, and again, folks, keep this in context.
I'm a comedian.
I have a much darker sense of humor than you do.
But this is what, I swear to God, when I said, I'm going to vote for Trump.
And I'm laying on the couch.
I'm half asleep.
I got one eye open.
Remember he went after the uh physically challenge report of the New York yes.
I look over the TV and I see Trump going and I said, where do I pull the lever?
This guy does not give a crap.
This is my guy.
And you know what?
He's been great for me because he's calling the media out on the PC bull crap.
And yes, like you said, just through the way things are evolving, people have had enough.
But I love that he would say anything.
I'm watching him doing a rally the other day, and they throw a heckler out.
And as they're throwing the guy out, Trump goes, that guy has a weight problem.
Go home and exercise.

All right.
Our sponsor this half hour is Relief Factor.
Winnie is 54 years old, driven a school bus for the past 15 years.
Literally watched a generation of people go from tiny little children to young men and women going out into the world.
And not really a, you know, a thankless job, but nobody was singing her praises either.
Last year, Winnie almost had to retire.
It was cold winter mornings.
The pain had been steadily building up in her hands over the last several years.
She got to the point where she just couldn't handle it anymore.
She heard about Relief Factor.
It changed her life.
She's still driving, ready to see the next generation of kids grow into adults because of Relief Factor.
Whatever it is that you think you're going to have to leave behind, don't try Relief Factor now.
Please, relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com.
Call 800-500-8384 and get your life back, just like I did, just like Winnie did, just like Charles, I told you about yesterday.

Stu, did you see the, um, did you see the Isis Island video, uh, that was, was released, I think, yesterday?
No.
So apparently ISIS has this island, and who knew?
And they were storing all kinds of stuff there, and they were hanging out.
I don't know if it was a vacation village.
I'm not sure what it was.
Island life is getting weird with ISIS and Jeffrey Epstein.
It is a lot of it.
It is.
It is.
Hey, come to our island.
And so we put out a the joint, I don't know what it is, in enduring whatever, put out a video, and it was from the, I think it was from the edge of space.
It's a drone way, way up.
And they showed the bombing of Isis Island.
And it is extraordinarily cool.
Can we have it?
Do you have it?
Can you play it?
Yeah.
Combined Joint Task Force Operation Inherent Resolve.
I don't think this is, yeah, no, this is, this is, I think this is Fantasy Island.
But they show the, you know, they're showing the island a little different than this one from space.
And there.
And there the plane.
There's the plane right there.
I think we had more of them than that.
It's a very short ISIS member.
Yeah.
And wearing white, not black.
And here they start to drop the bombs.
Look at this.
Jeez, the entire island.
The entire island is just being obliterated.
Yeah.
I kind of like it with this music.
It is nice.
I kind of like that.
Yeah.
All right.
We'll have to, you know, put that out.
Put that out on social media, will you?
I'll post that.
It's kind of a nicer telling of it.
The other one is, do we have the actual real one?
Because it's a little different.
We don't.
Yeah, it's a little different.
It's got like spooky music with it.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Yeah.
But Psyche.
This is, you're killing ISIS members?
This is probably, it's not spooky.
Spooky for them.
Yeah.
Well, they didn't have, what was his name?
Irve Villichez coming out.
The plane.
Watching that again.
There's just no reason for him to climb into a tower and ring a bell and yell the plane.
Like, first of all, everyone on the ground can see a plane coming.
You don't need to be in a tower to see a plane coming.
Number two, if you're going to yell the plane, you don't need to ring the bell.
And if you ring the bell, you don't need to yell the plane.
Like, he's just being redundant.
This is a, I mean, it's just a terrible business.
The terrible business model.
They did very well.
They did do well.
They did do very well.
They had a right well.
What was that show about exactly?
I mean, it was, you know what?
It's kind of like, what's that?
What's that show in HBO about the AI robots?
Oh, Westworld.
Westworld.
It's a little like that, except no mechanics.
It's not a creepy.
Yeah.
It's not like creepy like Westworld.
No, no, it's not creepy like Westworld, but it is.
You went to the island.
You don't remember?
I mean, Fantasy Island Love Boat, and what was the other one?
I watched a decent amount of Love Boat.
I did not watch a decent amount of Fantasy Island.
I don't know if my parents thought it was inappropriate or something.
Well, probably it was Fantasy Island.
So you would go and it would be like, I just want to be discovered and be the greatest singer ever.
And, you know, like, you really can't sing.
And then suddenly you could go and sing and some agent would find you and you'd live this life, but sometimes it wasn't all what you thought it would be.
So was it like actors, essentially?
Like making it seem like you succeeded.
Yes.
And so you would go do you'd live out your fantasy on Fantasy Island.
It's Westworld.
But Westworld looks really fantasy.
Fantasies really are.
This is ABC in the 1970s.
Westworld is much more realistic with a human mind.
It's a little dark.
And I'm wondering if we have changed or if we just always were like that, we just wouldn't admit it.
Like when Zeplane, Zeplane, I just want to fall in love and just be with a beautiful woman and a woman who loves me back and blah, blah, blah.
Or was it, I just really just want to be with a woman and then maybe shoot her in the end.
That's the difference between Fantasy Island and Westworld.
Yeah.
Which one of those are we?
I don't really want to admit what is probably true there.
I know.
I don't either.
Although it's very, it's interesting.
It's almost like a precursor to like online life.
Remember when this, like, what was the site?
Was it The Sims?
The game that was like the game where you'd have a fake second life and you'd be living it online.
And I guess you'd be like successful instead of the crappy job you had.
Like your online life, you were cool.
You were a stud.
And then, you know, in real life, you were a complete disaster.
You were a dumpster fire.
And, you know, it's kind of that, right?
Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity00:15:08
Like, you go.
I think it is.
That's a tough thing to admit about yourself.
Yeah, well, I don't think, but I think it's different.
I mean, like, Fantasy Island, they weren't AI.
They were real people.
Right.
And so you wouldn't want to do that to a real person.
But if it was AI and they were just going to be resetting it, you would, the first time you might, well, this is, geez, this is the story.
HBO, I'm only about four years behind you, but you should do this because it's good.
The first time you go, you would have feelings and emotions and you would want to be the good guy.
But then after a while.
You might as well switch it up.
Switch it up.
That happens with video games all the time.
At first, you start and you're trying to be the hero and then you just start running over pedestrians for no reason.
I guess how it always ends.
But I mean, just as a, because you're a rich person and you're like, I want to have this dream of a singer.
I'm going to pay a bunch of people to pretend I'm a good singer and clap for me and sign up.
Well, in the show, they always were.
Oh, they were a good singer.
They were always a good singer.
They just couldn't quite get a break or they were too nervous.
I am digging way back into the Glenbeck memory vaults.
It's not like I've said to the kids, hey, you guys want to watch a great show from the 70s?
Let's watch Fantasy Island.
I don't think that's ever been said.
That might have been the first time that phrase has ever come out of another person's mouth.
Probably true.
Yeah.
Probably true.
I would rather watch Fantasy Island than this debate tonight, though.
I will say that.
How about I watch Fantasy Island and give you a report on it, and you watch the debate?
How about this?
I watch the NFL.
You watch Fantasy Island and we don't give the audience a report on it.
We'll spare torture.
We need to get like someone from the audience to just call in.
Like, because I want to watch the game and Glenn wants to watch Fantasy Island or, you know, DuckTales or.
What is that worth?
What is that worth?
How much is that worth?
What if we bribe an audience member to watch this?
No, no, no, we're not bribing.
That would be wrong.
We're going to pay them.
We're going to pay them a living wage.
A living wage.
A living wage.
Yeah.
$15 an hour.
That's three hours.
$15.
It'll give you $45 in Applebee's gift cards since we've been talking about Applebee's tonight.
I don't know why Applebee's.
That's not bad.
I wouldn't do that.
Would you do that?
You'd watch that whole thing for $45.
$45 worth of prizes.
How about that?
We'll have Marissa dig around the prize closet for all the stuff that we haven't given away.
I would not know.
I'm sorry to play the union negotiator here for the audience.
That's fair.
But I don't think it out.
I think you should have family leave.
You can't take family leave.
It's a three-hour job.
It's going to take three hours of family leave.
Breaks.
You should be able to have a break.
They have commercials.
You got to go out and drink for an hour after the first hour.
I'm okay.
You could take a break during either commercials or when Julian Castro is speaking.
One of those two, you could take a break.
I don't think he's going to be speaking that much.
No, I don't think so either.
I think this is a good.
We should see if there's someone who will give us a report on this so we don't have to do it.
I'll do it.
We'll double it.
I'll give you $100 just to watch the debate and then report back to us so we can pretend that we watch the debate.
I mean, first of all, I love the fact that we're giving away your money for this purpose.
I think it's a great idea.
Can we do that?
Is that allowed?
Are we allowed to give away $100 to some random.
I mean, I don't see why not.
It's my show.
It's my money.
I know, but you know, there's all these rules on this, you know, when you're doing contests.
But this is not contest.
This is not a contest.
We're hiring somebody.
We're hiring a freelancer.
Yes, I like this.
So you hire a freelancer for three hours tonight.
The pay is $33.33 an hour.
That's a living wage.
It's a very solid living wage.
More than Elizabeth Warren is paying her people.
Oh, I'm sure.
And all you have to do is watch it and take some notes and tell us which clips we should play back the next day.
Right.
Right.
What the good parts were.
You can't be a dummy.
No, yeah.
You have to.
You can't be a dummy.
So you can't have gone to an Ivy League college.
No, you're just coming out.
Yes, you come out as an idiot on the other end.
Well, but I want someone who's not, and it can't just be, oh, we're going to just only mock the candidates.
Like, I want to hear what crazy proposals they have, not just, you know, Joe Biden's eye fell out an hour two.
Like, we need to have a little bit more.
His eye just popped out and rolled around the stage, and he didn't even realize.
We might want to have a doctor.
We might want to get an actual physician.
This is interesting.
And maybe a brain surgeon because he's had aneurysm.
So, somebody that could actually now it would go up.
The price would probably go up.
That'd probably be 50 bucks.
Oh, I think we could anyone with some medical knowledge.
I mean, look, most of these candidates are like 112 years old.
I mean, this is not a spry group.
We need someone who can see it.
All right, if you'd like to put your hat in the ring, and what you'll do is you'll watch it tonight and you'll come on the show with us tomorrow, okay?
And we'll pay you that living wage of $33.33 an hour, three hours of work, and we'll maybe give some bonus for you actually having to get up the next day and actually regurgitate.
I don't, what are you doing?
I am working for the people.
I am one of the people.
You steamrolling bank-loving people.
All I care about are oil profits.
I don't understand why you're giving this away.
No, I think that's a fair.
I mean, look, I would not do this for $100.
If I were in the audience right now, I would not do this.
If I said to you, I'm paying you to do this already.
Yeah, here's the thing.
You are saying that tonight.
You are paying me to watch this debate, and I'm going to watch the NFL game instead.
That's happening.
If we want to make this, if you want to have currently, I'm paying you to watch it.
You're paying me much more than $100.
So who are you watching?
Who's paying to watch it?
And why am I paying a secondary person?
Well, you have to watch it too.
You're also.
This is coming out of your pay.
I don't think that's appropriate.
I think you're very appropriate.
You also get paid for this job.
I don't know if you know this.
And you don't want to watch it.
I have lots of things that I've told.
I've got things to do.
Here's my question.
Will someone kneel on the field tonight?
I don't know.
I better be there to watch it.
I better find out if someone's protesting that darn flag tonight.
You can call us if you want to be considered and you got to give us, you know, give us some credentials here.
Why you should be the person that we hire to watch this so we don't have to.
And then report it back to us so we can claim that we watched it for the listener who didn't watch it because nobody wants to watch this.
I think this is a fair deal.
Yeah.
We are.
I'm not sure it's market.
I'm not sure it's priced market appropriate.
It's true.
We may be undercutting the market a little bit.
By about $5,000.
Somebody out there probably needs $100.
Yeah.
You know?
Three hours of sitting on your couch.
What are you going to Venmo it to them or something?
All right.
Here it is.
Real estate agents I trust.
It is really hard, really hard to be a great real estate agent.
That's why there's a difference in agents.
You can't really moonlight as a real estate agent.
It's a full-time job.
It's complex.
There's all kinds of things that, you know, really only serious people should be approaching this.
And you have to work really hard as well.
The amount of paperwork alone is enough to scare any sane person.
This is why my wife and I started realestate agentsitrust.com because who is doing this?
And how do you find the right person that can actually sell your home?
We took the time to find out what the best practices were and what makes a great real estate agent.
We use that as our template.
We hired a lot of agents since then.
Thousands of them come from this audience.
We only have a thousand that are actually on our list.
We have thousands, 5,000 others that want to be a part of this team, but we want to make sure that everybody is exactly right.
So if we don't have a real estate agent in your area, which is sometimes can be, if we don't have a real estate agent, we won't recommend one.
We want to make sure this person is going to sell your home for the most amount of money.
They're going to do it right.
They're going to do it fast and help you find an ex-home.
And if it's not in that area, we'll find a real estate agent for you in another area.
They're realestateagentsitrust.com.
That's realestateagentsitrust.com.
You're listening to Glenn Beck.
We're paying a listener $100 if they'll actually watch the debate tonight and then come on and report it and give us enough information so we can sound like we watched it because none of us want to watch it.
Gabby in Pennsylvania.
Hello, Gabby.
Hello, Mr. Beck.
It's great to be on.
Thank you for this opportunity.
Thank you, Gabby.
You seem very businesslike, and I'm glad this is an interview.
And $72 are on the line for you.
If you Mr. Beck, I'm willing to do it for free if you don't want to pay me.
That's no, I don't have a problem paying you.
I'm not going to pay you $100.
I will pay a man to do that.
You'll get $72 if you get the job.
That's fair enough.
Yeah, right.
So tell me about yourself, Gabby.
Tell me about yourself.
Well, Mr. Beck and Stu, I am actually, I've met you guys both before.
I am a graduate of the first Mercury One Leadership Training Program.
I was in Dallas in July of 2017.
Oh, wow.
So how old are you?
I'm 21 years old.
You're 21, yeah.
Yes, sir.
I am a recent graduate of the political science department of Grove City College.
And so I'm a student of one of your.
You'll take it seriously.
Yes, I will.
I'm a student of one of your frequent guests, Dr. Paul Kengor.
Oh, nice.
Okay, all right.
Okay, you got the qualifications.
This is a well-earned 20, 70.
What is it?
$76.
68.
Let's see.
68 years.
68.
I mean, I don't mean to pay you less than a man, but you might conservatives.
Yeah, you might have to have pregnancy leave or, you know, three-hour job.
She's going to have pregnancy leave?
Well, she might.
Okay.
She might.
We're conservative.
You never know.
Yeah.
Hang on just a second, Gabby.
Darren.
Now, here's a guy we'd have to pay the full hundred dollars.
Oh, man.
Darren, are you there?
I am here.
All right.
You want to throw your hat in the ring?
I would like to, yes, sir.
All right.
Tell me a little bit about yourself.
Point of personal privilege.
I keep him.
47 years old.
Worked for one of the big four financial services firms and been listening to the Blaze ever since you started.
Right.
Now, can you separate yourself, Darren, from your financial firm when Elizabeth Warren is on stage torching the financial sector?
Can you separate yourself?
I will try my best and take copious notes, yes.
All right.
Okay.
All right.
Darren and Gabby, I think we're going to hire both of you.
But whoever does the better job gets the hundred bucks.
Well, or the $68 or the $68.
Let's go to the $64.
$66.
She's a woman.
She's young.
Yeah.
She's young.
This is a first job.
Okay.
So we get $15.
$15.
Hang on, guys.
We'll have both of you on tomorrow to report.
You're listening to Glenn Beck.
Tell you a story this hour about a guy who moved to the United States from India.
And he moved in February of 2001.
And he was just starting life out.
He really loved America from afar.
And he was standing in his office just a few months later.
And he said to himself, he heard kind of God talk to him and said, you know, your life is going to change.
And he was thinking, I am just going after money right now.
What is my life really all about?
He didn't realize that just a few floors above him, a plane was about to hit his new office.
Sujo John is his name.
And he loves America now more than ever.
And his life is such a remarkable story.
You need to hear it.
He joins me in one minute.
This is the Glenbeck program.
So next spring, we're taking the cruise through history, and it's going to be filled with all kinds of exciting events, lots of food, lots of fun.
Presentations by David Barton and Rabbi Lappen.
Bill O'Reilly will be there.
I will be there.
Patton Stew will be there.
And we have a floating museum of really fascinating Artifacts that are going to show you what we took from Venice, what we took from Athens, what we took from Jerusalem and the Temple Mount that built us into a very different country.
We need to renew that.
And so we are going to be renewing a vow in, what is it, next year?
Is it 2020?
Jeez, that seems weird.
Next year in 2020, we have to change course.
And it's going to be a lot of fun.
You're going to see amazing things.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
We only have a few cabins left, and I'd love to sell these out in the next couple of next couple of weeks.
It is all 100% inclusive.
You just have to get to the airport, then the flights and everything taken care of until you return home.
It is really, truly once-in-a-lifetime.
Bring your family if you can.

Sujo John is his name.
He's a 9-11 survivor and a founder of something called You Can Free Us.
He has an amazing story.
Welcome, Sujo.
How are you?
Great, Ben.
Good to be back with you.
I want to take the radio audience through your story a bit.
First of all, you were living in India, and had moving to America always been a part of your plan or your dream?
And if so, why?
Great question.
9/11 Survivor Sujo John Story00:08:26
A lot of reasons why.
America, you know, even for those from halfway around the world, America always stands out as this amazing place where dreams and dreamers collide.
And if you have a dream somewhere within you in some part of the world, everybody wants to come to this country.
And that was part of me.
And my view of America was through the lenses of television, movies, and arts.
And then growing up in India, where, you know, as Christians, you're a minority, I just knew that America is that place that's been founded on Judeo-Christian principles.
So that was another big reason why I wanted to come here.
And everything that America stands for is very appealing and drawing to people on the other side of the world where they want to build their dreams.
And in this country, it's now about your pedigree.
It's now about your last name.
If you can add value, you can make something out of your life in this country.
I don't think there's any country in the world that provides that foundation, Glenn.
It's so good to hear this from people who actually know because we have lost our way so far.
We just, we don't see the uniqueness of America when you're living in it.
So you come to the United States in February of 2001, and you find yourself a pretty good job.
You are working on what floor of the World Trade Center?
So Glenn, I came with $50, two bags, and tell people loaded with a lot of dreams.
And of all the places, I find work on the 81st floor of the North Tower of the World Trade Center.
And what are you doing?
I'm doing marketing for a telecommunications company.
My dream was to start actually a data center to get into the telecom world.
And so I was building my steps towards that and trying to understand what life is all about in America.
What does true capitalism mean?
Because growing up in India, although they believe in capitalism, it's not quite a capitalist economy.
And I was just so excited to come to the, of all the places in New York City, I mean, almost like the nuclear reactor of capitalists around the world that has created the wealth, which not only helps people have a better life, but solves problems around the world.
So that was my goal.
And my wife also works there.
She was working on the 71st floor of the South Tower of the World Trade Center.
So both of us had offices at the World Trade Center.
And she was pregnant.
She was four months pregnant, Glenn, and that was an exciting season in our life as we are getting ready for our baby to arrive, our first child.
And then life takes such an incredible turn on September 11, 2001.
And you feel like on September 11th, you're there.
What time in the morning did you get there?
I got a little past 7.30 that morning.
I would start work usually a little earlier around 8.
So I was early that morning, 7.30.
And Glenn, you lived in New York.
You remember?
It was a clear, cloudless day.
It was just a beautiful day.
And then everything would change forever.
So you're there, and you, before the plane hits, just literally a few minutes before it hits, you sent an email to a friend who went to church with you.
Yes.
You know, I was, like you mentioned earlier, I was empty on the inside.
You know, Glenn, you know this, and a lot of people listening to you know this.
Life is not just about consumption.
And sometimes we get wrapped up in stuff, junk, I call it the junk and the funk around us.
And we think life is all about the next new thing, the next new toy, the next new gadget.
And sadly, that was me in America.
I could reach things that money could get.
But then there was a hole in my heart.
And I knew my purpose for which God sent me to this great land was not just to make money.
There's something more.
And I felt like I was almost losing that.
I was losing that mission, losing the plot.
So I wrote an email to my friend saying, I know there's a call of God upon my life.
I've been chasing stuff in America.
I want to be chasing that which is on God's heart.
And I sent that at 8.05 in the morning from the Twin Towers.
You don't know that your wife is running late, if I remember right, and not in her office.
Which tower was hit first, hers or yours?
My tower was hit first.
The North Tower was hit first.
Incredible explosion that almost rips the building.
American Flight 11, a Boeing 767 with 440, flying at 440 miles an hour, carrying 10,000 gallons of jet fuel.
And how many floors above you was it?
The plane literally struck about eight to eight, nine floors above us, but part of the wing of the plane rips through our floor.
As all of everyone who's seen those images, they would know that the plane went in an angle into the building.
So there was fire that got stuck around us as jet fuel dumps its way all throughout the building.
And did you see the plane coming toward the building?
I didn't see the plane, but someone on my floor saw the plane.
Everything happened so fast, but we felt this incredible explosion, the building rattling, and we knew as a plane, what else could hit you at that height?
But all of us, Glenn, thought it was a small commuter plane.
Probably a pilot, you know, had a cardiac problem or something.
He crashed the plane.
Nobody knew it was a big jet plane, and nobody knew that it was actually a terrorist attack, that it was intentionally flown into the building.
So did you start to get out then?
Yeah, we fought our way to the fire and the jet fuel and started running down.
And that's when I passed all these brave firemen and policemen, these incredibly brave men and heroes of our country.
We were going down and they were going up.
So we high-fired them saying, you guys are the real heroes.
We had no idea that would be the last time America would be seeing these brave men.
So we started running down and I'm running down with a very heavy heart.
Phones aren't working.
I can't reach my wife.
So I come down 81 floors.
I reach the plaza level.
And from there, we were told go down one more level to the concourse level.
And I'm walking toward the South Tower to be looking for my wife if she has not gone up.
And that's when the South Tower collapses around me.
Wow.
And so it, I mean, I would imagine it was a little terrifying with everything falling around you that you felt like you might get hit by things?
Or were you far enough away?
No, I was actually almost right in front of the building.
And it's an amazing story of God's deliverance.
I'm 20 feet away from the building.
I made my way through the revolving doors of the towers that take you literally in front there.
And that's when the ground starts shaking, the glass is shattering.
And I'm with 15, 20 people.
And we started crying out and we were on top of each other.
And I started preparing them.
I told them we're going to die.
And I told them, call upon the name of Jesus.
We knew time was short.
And we started praying our last prayer, thinking we were going to die.
So I was buried in that debris at that moment.
I was in a pocket of about three feet of soothing ash.
The steel was the only thing that really survived.
Everything was pulverized into ash and dust.
And the first building, when it got when it came down, the front facade of the building stood up for a while.
And I was right there.
So that's probably what saved my life.
And everything went as if, like, in a way, a mushroom is.
It just went past us.
So that protected me.
But then I was buried in debris and I was pulled out by a man, an incredibly brave FBI agent.
And as he pulled me and I pulled him, we both told each other we're going to die.
He said he was the FBI.
And I told him, Do you know where you're going?
He said, Yes, I know my savior.
And we thought we were going to die, choking all the soot on the ash.
And that's when a red light flashes and we start crawling away.
And that light leads us out of the pit.
The man says, I got to go back, runs into the North Tower, which was still standing.
The ground shakes.
The North Tower goes down.
This brave American hero died that day.
Do you know his name?
Yeah, his name is Lenny Hayton, who was left behind four children.
He was a bomb technician for the FBI.
Actually, the only active FBI agent to have died that day.
Just his story is just incredible.
I've had an opportunity to meet his wife and just to know about his life.
Another story of another man who could have avoided that place, but he felt so driven by love for his country and fellow human beings and the call of duty that just made him race and run back into the towers to look for more people.
And Glenn, I just want to say something here.
What Makes America Great00:03:07
That's what makes America great.
You know, when people talk about make America great, I say the people of America, great America, great.
It's not our money, it's not our building, it's not our technology.
The fact that there are people that are willing to love on their neighbor, they're people that care for this country.
And I've heard you, I've seen you on television, met you in person.
And I know beyond what you do in the media, it's a true love that you have for America that makes people like you speak up on issues, people that want to protect this country, knowing what's about to happen.
And for me, who's come from India, that's what I love about America, the great American spirit that's deeply interested in everyone that calls themselves an American.
Sujo, I'm going to take a one-minute break and then I'm going to come back.
And I want you to tell people what happened afterwards because that was a big change in your life.
The ground shook literally and figuratively, and you have gone on to do some remarkable things.
And I want to hear the second part of your life now in one minute.
Stand by.
Okay, great deal from Takovas.
I want to tell you about it.
It's a free gift with any order over $150.
And I'll tell you about that here in a second.
But first, I want to remind you who Takovis is.
Takovis was started by a couple of guys who here in Texas, they thought, you know, I love boots, I love cowboy boots, but they are getting so crazy expensive.
I mean, if you're in Texas and you want good cowboy boots, you go into a store and you're like, yeah, I'd like them, what about this pair?
Well, that's $5,000.
What are you crazy?
You can pay so much for cowboy boots.
And well, they're all handcrafted and they're all blah, And then you go and you find another boot and it's like 35 bucks and it sucks.
What they tried to do was give you that really, really handcrafted boot and give it to you at about half the price.
So their boots are, you know, a couple hundred bucks, 300 bucks, but they are like $800 boots.
You will love them.
They are all hand done.
Takes 200 steps.
They do all kinds of different things in leather.
So they've got the bags and the belts and everything else.
And they make really great, I love their jeans, really great jeans and clothing.
You can find them at Takovis.
Now, here's a special.
If you buy something and you spend $150, you're going to get a free, it's a card case.
It's like a little wallet.
It's what I carry around with me.

It's really nice.
It's a $50 value.
They're going to give it to you for free just because they want to say thank you.
They don't usually do this because they price their things appropriately.
So it's a great deal for you and a good deal for them.
It is Takovis, T-E-C-O-V-A-S dot com slash Beck.
Go there now, Tacovus.com slash Beck.

Wells Fargo Wallet Giveaway00:15:24
We pause for 10 seconds, then back.
You know, Sujo and I were talking yesterday.
He was on television.
So we were talking just the other day about the thing that he's working on.
And we both believe that the only way that we're going to save this nation and save freedom of mankind is if we put into action the things and really the covenant that our pilgrims and George Washington and Abraham Lincoln made with God.
And that is we will serve you.
And the best way to serve God, as Benjamin Franklin said, was to serve your fellow man.
The one thing that we can all agree on now and not argue about is slavery is horrible and needs to be stopped.
And it's worse today than it's ever been.
So here's this guy who's chasing the Almighty Dollar in the World Trade Center.
They come down.
And Sujo, you believe that you were directed and saved, you and your wife saved that day to be able to do something different than just making money.
Absolutely, Glenn.
And I felt God calling me into this.
And the fact that I was rescued, that someone who rescued me gave up his life.
And that's the story of the gospel narrative.
God sends his son to look for broken people like us.
And the fact that heaven rescued you and me compels us, our faith compels us to look for people.
And the message of Jesus was he came to set the captives free.
And there are people spiritually captive and there's also physically captive.
So I got exposed to this problem, Glenn, about modern slavery, how there's 41 million people in slavery.
And when I saw the conditions, and I know you've seen it in different parts of the world, where women are kept in cells and cages, I remember being in a red light district, 37,000 sex workers and women kept in these cages, three feet by six feet.
I felt in that moment something common with those girls.
I felt like I know what it is to be trapped.
And if someone came and rescued me, perhaps God is tapping on me to rescue these women and children on his behalf.
And I saw that in India, and I come back and I knew America is a place where people are generous.
And I came and started talking about this problem.
And we started this nonprofit called You Can Free Us.
And this has become my life calling.
This has become my mission.
And this is a problem in America.
It's a problem in the Middle East.
It's a problem in Asia, a global problem.
Every zip code, our children are vulnerable.
And so that's been our mission: looking for women and children who are trapped in sex slavery.
But beyond sex slavery, children also trapped in labor trafficking.
And I'm excited.
You have a passion, Glenn, with Nazarene Fun and what you've done and helping Christians flee from war-torn countries where they're under the threat of ISIS.
And I'm so excited that we get an opportunity to talk about this and also work in the future on a problem that is one of the greatest evils of our times.
If we don't engage right now in this problem, a generation that's coming up behind us will say, why did you not do enough?
I want to share something with you.
You know, you also may have been in these places around the world.
There have been horrors of the past.
I remember being in Elmira Castle in Ghana, and they tell you about the slave trade.
I've been in places where Hitler ran wild and wiped out millions of Jews.
And we stand in those places and we question and we ask, why did people not do enough?
And so this is our problem in our world.
And we've got to do whatever we can.
There is a cry rising from the brothels of the world.
There is a cry rising from children and women.
And the question is, are we listening to that cry?
You know, it's amazing to me.
The New York Times just started something called 1619.
It's a podcast, a serial that they're doing on the year 1619.
They say that's the year of really America's founding because that's when race, that's when slavery was brought here.
But our pilgrims came in 1620, and it's the 400th anniversary of our pilgrims, the year after.
And you can either look back and blame everything on that.
And I don't know what you're gaining out of that, except more anger and frustration, and you're not lifting anybody up.
Instead, we should be looking towards today, because I can't do anything to change what people did in the past, but I don't want to be remembered as the people in the past that did nothing and were involved in cakes and circuses.
And this problem is real.
And if we can come together and solve the problem today, it will solve the problems of the past.
It will heal those wounds.
So well said.
And I want to say something.
It may not be politically correct.
I just want to tell your listeners that's listening to you, listening to us, Glenn, right now, don't get discouraged when liberals beat you about the problem of slavery of the past.
If those people care so much about things that happened in the past, I want to encourage them, come join people like us in the fight of this problem that's happening right now.
I don't know of any country in the world, Glenn, that has shed its blood on the issue of slavery.
I looked up the numbers the other day.
It's almost 600,000 people, under a million Americans got killed in the Civil War.
So America's paid the price with blood on this issue of slavery.
And as we're all aware of, and somehow this history is now being passed down.
And there are people who come up and talk about the past and say we have to get involved in repatriations for a small group of people that caused this problem.
That was a global problem.
But how about a problem right now in our streets?
How about a problem right now around the world when you and I and everyone who cares about this problem, right or left, can be part of a great solution?
Thank you, Sujo.
Sujo John, I encourage you to check out his organization and help where you can.
It's youcanfree.us.
You can free.us.
Check him out and join the fight.
Join the growing numbers of people who are saying, you know what, let's deal with real problems.
You're listening to Glenn Beck.
Let me tell you a story about Winnie.
She's 54 years old.
She's been driving a school bus for the last 15 years, and she has, I mean, imagine that.
You're picking kids up and you're watching them grow every year and go from young children, young men and women going out into the world.
It's a job that is satisfying, but I mean, you know, you're not making a lot of money or whatever.
And she has real problems with on cold winter mornings, the pain in her hands over the last several years had become to the point where she couldn't handle it anymore.
Then she heard about Relief Factor and it changed her life.
She's driving again this year.
She's getting back on the bus and she's, can you imagine driving a bus, especially in pain with your hands?
She doesn't have to now stop watching those kids grow into great adults.
She called Relief Factor and I recommend that you do it too.
She has the same story that I did.
My hands were in such pain I couldn't take it.
ReliefFactor.com, relieffactor.com, or you can call 800-500-8384, 800-500-8384.
Just try it.
It works for 70% of the people who tried the three-week quick start.
Just do that.
relieffactor.com you know i i really think wells fargo's just shut down business I mean, you know, just walk away.
Leave your keys on the desk.
Everybody should just walk away.
It seems ill-advised for a company to say.
Yeah, well, you might want to get the wagons back out and start again.
They're having a hard time finding a CEO and who really wants to run Wells Fargo.
I am available.
You're available.
Yes, I am available.
I mean, I've got to be better than nobody.
That's true.
Well, I could be a figurehead.
Yeah, yeah.
I can go on TV and say, you know, oh, the Wells Fargo wagon is coming down.
You could do that.
I could do that.
You could do that.
Okay.
So not many people can.
Anyway, so they were talking about this on CNBC.
And I think Elizabeth Warren played this perfectly.
But this is truly what's going on in businesses of all levels all around the country.
Listen to this conversation with Jim Kramer.
How is it possible that this company cannot find a CEO?
I mean, are they worried about Elizabeth Warren attacking that?
She or he would be.
Of course they are.
And of course that person is.
Why wouldn't they be?
I don't know.
If she becomes president, what do you think is going to happen to the banks?
Well, it's not a, it would be a suboptimal situation.
It would be so optimal.
You think Elizabeth Warren pushes banks into a, well, they're already down 20% from the highs.
Yeah, I just think that there were these curies in the 30s where they brought rich people in front of Congress and just kind of trashed them.
It was effective.
About 20 years later, we had the least discrepancy in incomes in the 50s and 60s, right?
I don't know what's going to happen.
Look, I've got to tell you, when you get off the desk and you talk to executives, they're more fearful of her winning.
I mean, I've never heard anybody say, look, she's got to be stopped.
She's got to be stopped.
I don't know.
She's very, she keeps going up in the polls.
She's raised a ton of money.
She's going to win Iowa, I believe.
She's a very compelling figure on the stump.
By the way, I hear it too, and it's another reason why companies are being implored to do things now.
If you want to get something done, you really think M ⁇ A or anything, think about doing it soon because come early to mid-2020, if Elizabeth Warren's rolling along, everybody's going to be like, that's it.
It's true.
It's why I've been telling you to refi your house.
You have to take care of business.
You got to get as solvent as you can, get the money in gold, get it safe places.
The banks are not necessarily safe places in really bad situations.
But if the Democrats put somebody in office like Elizabeth Warren or will put her into a real position in the next White House, you're going to see the banks, they won't loan money.
They won't.
They are going to hold on to any kind of money that they have because they're going to be under attack.
I didn't see how Elizabeth Warren handled this, but my guess is she's using it as a campaign commercial.
She ran it and she just tweeted, I'm Elizabeth Warren and I approve this message.
Did she really?
Yeah.
That's brilliant.
It's smart.
I mean, look, to that audience, destroying businesses deemed as evil, even ones that we interact with all the time.
People will be surprised.
What happens when your bank doesn't have any money or your bank doesn't want to loan money?
I mean, you know, how do you pay in for stuff?
You know, it's easy, right?
This is why these things are so ridiculous, these debates and such.
All she's trying to do is find a way to say things that are as far left as possible.
She means it.
And she absolutely means it.
But she also is not incentivized to, like, it's not a sane argument to say we want to tear down the financial institution.
I mean, we talked about healthcare being what, one sixth of the economy.
What is it?
Finance and insurance, these combined industries, are about $1.5 trillion, about 7%.
So about half the size of the...
I mean, the financial sector is a giant chunk of our economy.
It's half as big as the entire healthcare market.
So you don't just tear it down.
They did healthcare.
Well, I mean, you could argue that.
I mean, I would say, obviously, these companies are still in business, and maybe that's what she'll try to justify it.
But I mean, her idea that people are scared of her right now is a positive, right?
When she's president, it's not because the economy tanks, and then all of a sudden her approval economy goes through the business.
If she looks like she's going to win, and it will be blamed on Trump, but let's say she becomes the nominee and she's polling well, the market will price it in.
The market will crash, And it will hasten her into the market.
Yeah.
Or her into the white market.
If it looks like she has a chance to win.
Now, again, if there's any Democratic candidate that Donald Trump can win against, it should be Elizabeth Warren.
I mean, if Elizabeth Warren, if you can't beat Elizabeth Warren, except Elizabeth Warren's message, look, if the tanks, that's a whole other situation.
I'm for all of the antitrust stuff that the states are doing.
I don't know about all of them, but I think with Google and Facebook and all the things that they're doing, I'm glad the states are looking into antitrust.
I was standing in the newsroom yesterday and I said, hey, does anybody does anybody know, wasn't the Microsoft antitrust movement, wasn't that at the top?
Wasn't that the last straw before the dot-com bubble?
We looked it up.
Yes, it was.
That was filed right at the very top of the dot-com boom.
Now, did that cause it?
No, I think it was just a really strong last straw that was on top.
We're doing this now with 50 antitrust litigation coming from the different states for Google.
It's 48 states, too, I think.
Yeah, it's a full-on onslaught, which I am for.
But you just have to be very, very aware of all of the cards that are on the table.
It is a house of cards.
You have China.
You have the instability of the Middle East.
You have Brexit going on.
You have Deutsche Bank.
You have Wells Fargo and all of their scandals.
You have bigger debt than we had before in 2008.
You have an out-of-control printing press all over the world.
House of Cards and Global Debt00:08:58
You have banks with no more bullets in their guns because most of them, except ours, are already into zero or negative interest rates.
So if it falls apart, there's nobody to catch it.
And we're the last one standing.
Mark my words.
Trillions of dollars are being flooded in.
When I saw President Trump say yesterday that the Fed really needs to lower the interest rates and get them down to zero or below zero.
No, Mr. President.
No, please don't do that.
Please.
We A, have to have some bullets left in our gun.
Don't spend them now.
And B, the only reason why we're getting billions and billions of dollars from overseas investing in America right now because we're the last one standing and that will promise some sort of an interest rate.
You take that interest rate to zero or below.
They'll take their money out and they'll do something else with it.
Right now, we are performing, but we're the last one on earth that is performing.
So you have all these things that are just being built up.
Then you have an election where somebody is saying, by the way, I'm going to get rid of the free market.
If she is the nominee, the market could crash just because companies are like, you know what?
Pull everything back.
Pull everything back.
You want to do something?
Do it right now.
And we're going to pull everything back because we don't know what the world will be like.
It doesn't like change, especially the unknown change.
And so that could cause the market to absolutely collapse.
We could spiral the whole world.
That's what we're dealing with in the next 12 months.
And I don't think anybody is actually explaining that.
Just the realistic fear of having somebody like Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders who is saying, I'm going to change the financial structure of America.
It will change everything.
You have to, it has to.
It has to.
If you're running a business and you're seeing this storm coming, you're battening down the hatches, right?
You batten down the hatches.
You cut expenditures as much as you possibly can, which will stop growth, will bring unemployment.
You take and you just cut things out.
If you have money in the market, you don't know what's going to happen to financial institutions.
If Elizabeth Warren and you are invested, and many of us are, teachers, unions included, if you're invested in the financial sector, you better pull your damn money out of there if you think Elizabeth Warren is going to even be just a big part of the new team.
Yeah.
Because that's going to hurt those stocks and your investment.
So what happens?
That hurts the banks even more because now you're taking that money out.
And then if you want to take your money out, you're the last one.
They changed this.
You don't get your money on deposit at a bank.
You're down on the bottom of the waterfall.
Yeah.
As soon as they go bankrupt or they have a problem, you're not getting your money.
I keep going back and forth on this.
And I don't, I honestly, it's like a law and order episode where I think the person's really guilty and then they're really innocent and then they're really guilty and then they're really innocent.
Whoever, whatever lawyer is making the argument is the one I think is telling the truth.
But it's like, I don't know in my mind whether to root for Joe Biden to win this primary or Elizabeth Warren to win this primary.
And the argument in my head goes like this.
Joe Biden probably has a better chance to win the election.
However, if he wins, he's less worse, at least by a little bit.
Depends on who his vice president is, because I'm not sure he makes it.
Well, yeah, I mean, God forbid.
But you know what I'm saying?
It's like this idea of he's probably less.
Let's just say he runs it like Obama ran it.
Yeah.
You know, I mean, like, it's less worse than Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders.
On the other hand, Warren or Sanders, I think, would be easier to beat.
But if they win some catastrophic for them, I don't think anybody has baked in the fact of the catastrophe that would happen before.
Remember, when Donald Trump took office, what happened to the stock market?
It didn't go through the roof.
It just continued to go up.
The more it looked like he was going to be the president, the more the stock market went up.
And they kept saying, well, it's all priced in.
It's all priced in.
They've already priced in that this is going to be good for banks and business.
And they saw Hillary Clinton as more like a Biden figure.
Correct.
So everything kind of went long.
If you have polls that show that Warren is the candidate and Warren is even close, the market will price that in and say, I'm sorry, guys, but I got to get my money out of here.
I don't know what's going to happen.
So you will have real slowdown and real economic problems, not from anything the president is doing, just because you have someone saying, I'm going to change the financial sector entirely when I get into office.
It will cause this massive slowdown, maybe even a collapse, and it will hasten Warren into office because the media will blame all of that on capitalism and Donald Trump.
The only, I mean, I'm just coming to this now because I've been back and forth too, but I'm just, now that I'm saying this out loud, the only candidate we can afford to have is Joe Biden.
Because there won't be that fear in the markets.
It's a tough one.
I can understand both sides of it.
But it's like Elizabeth Warren, like I, there's a lot of people around the country that don't like the Dallas Cowboys.
That's Joe Biden.
He doesn't really like capitalism all that much.
Elizabeth Warren is like me.
I have a visceral hatred for the Dallas Cowboys.
And she is like an Eagles fan here.
She hates capitalism.
She hates the fact that businesses can do well and this economy can move on in a capitalistic direction.
And she's dying to implement the opposite system.
And don't think that they don't know just as well as we do that if the economy starts to go sideways, that it hurts Donald Trump.
And don't think that they don't know that, which is another reason why I believe they are so very clear and will continue to be clear that this is a system that has failed and we have to change it because it will only hasten us because it will be blamed on Donald Trump.
And it will hasten our demise and hasten the run towards socialism.
It's kind of scary.
Hey, let me tell you about Goldline.
Yeah.
Have you thought about putting your financial house in order?
Because maybe you should.
I don't know.
What else is happening?
I have my money, you know, at least 10% of my money in gold.
And I put it in there and I haven't thought twice about it.
I don't buy it as an investment.
I'm not watching it all the time going, oh, how much is it making?
I don't care.
I bought it so that I have something.
You know, God forbid, you know, you have a socialist that is running and going to be the candidate against Donald Trump.
And you could see the end of capitalism happening in the next 12 months.
That's why I have gold.
May I suggest, please, you do your own homework and look into gold at goldline, goldline.com.
Call them now.
They're waiting for you at 866Goldline.
866Goldline, you should have at least 10% of your portfolio.
It should be spread out among a whole bunch of things, but 10%, I really truly believe, should be in gold, physical gold, not ETFs, physical gold.
Call Goldline now.
Read all the important risk information.
You're smart enough to figure this out.
But look at what's coming and call Goldline at 866Goldline.
1866Goldline or Goldline.com.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
That last break may be the most important break we have done in maybe a couple of years.
I don't even know.
That just kind of came out of nowhere and it is, Stu and I were just talking about it.
Most Important Break in Years00:00:39
We were like, that's right.
That's right.
We're going to do some real research on this and talk to some people and really get some facts and some numbers on it.
But that's right.
If Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders are even seriously looked at by the Democrats, and even if Joe Biden is the guy, but Elizabeth Warren as vice president or has a serious role, we are in for deep trouble, self-fulfilling prophecy, really, and Trump will have A hard time winning because that alone will affect the economy in a powerfully Powerfully negative way.
