The Glenn Beck Program - No One Will Ever Be Woke Enough | 7/7/20 Aired: 2020-07-07 Duration: 02:03:35 === Why Masks Work (14:08) === [00:00:00] Hey, it's Pat and Stu for Pat for Glenn. [00:00:03] Stu's always here for himself. [00:00:05] Thank you. [00:00:05] Except when he's not. [00:00:07] And then sometimes I fill in for him. [00:00:09] But welcome to the Glenn Beck program. [00:00:13] We got a full, full, wonderful show of just all good news today. [00:00:18] Just really wonderful things. [00:00:20] Like, for instance, not everybody in the country has been killed. [00:00:25] And further than that, not everybody in the country has Rona. [00:00:29] The Rona. [00:00:30] The COVID-19 Rona situation. [00:00:32] A couple survivors. [00:00:33] There are a couple. [00:00:35] So I'm just going to accentuate the positive today. [00:00:39] And we will get to that in about 60 seconds. [00:00:42] This is the Glenn Beck program. [00:00:47] You know, life is complicated and tricky enough to navigate during normal times when you're feeling fine. [00:00:52] So when you're not feeling fine, when you're in pain, things go even more sideways. [00:00:57] It's no way to live. [00:00:58] I've talked about Pete and Seth Talbot with Glenn on this program before. [00:01:02] Father-son duo, who founded Relief Factor. [00:01:05] They started out years ago with a vision for helping out people who live with pain. [00:01:10] And did they succeed? [00:01:11] I mean, it's helped thousands of people in our audience. [00:01:13] I know that. [00:01:14] Most of our pain is caused by inflammation in the body. [00:01:16] And a lot of times the things we take to fight it just don't rise to the occasion. [00:01:21] Glenn had debilitating pain really all the time. [00:01:24] I mean, he was miserable to deal with, even more miserable than normal, which is saying quite a bit. [00:01:30] But he got his life back when he discovered Relief Factor. [00:01:32] And, well, it was actually when Tanya discovered it. [00:01:35] It really had nothing to do with him. [00:01:36] Relief Factor isn't a drug, but it is developed by doctors. [00:01:39] And 70% of the people who try Relief Factor go on to buy more because it works for them. [00:01:43] Try the three-week quick start trial pack for only $19.95. [00:01:46] Go to relieffactor.com or call them 800-500-8384. [00:01:51] That's relieffactor.com or 800-500-8384. [00:01:56] Pat and Stu. [00:02:12] Glenn is sick today. [00:02:13] I guess, does he have the Rona? [00:02:15] We don't know. [00:02:16] We do not have a Rona report from Glenn yet. [00:02:18] I kind of just assume he does. [00:02:20] Yeah. [00:02:20] Because that's going to add to the drama of the show. [00:02:23] You know, right now, it looks like the mayor of Atlanta has the Rona. [00:02:28] Oh, yeah. [00:02:29] She's got it. [00:02:29] It looks like the Bolisaro, the guy from Brazil. [00:02:34] Oh, he's sick, too. [00:02:35] Yeah, he looks sick. [00:02:37] It does not look great. [00:02:38] There. [00:02:39] He's one of these guys who's been from the beginning like, this is nothing. [00:02:42] And like going around hugging people in the streets. [00:02:45] And like, he's basically said it's not a big deal. [00:02:48] He's been a little reckless. [00:02:49] He's been a little reckless, not only with himself, but with the country in general. [00:02:53] And Brazil is much, much worse than the United States. [00:02:56] I mean, it's by far the worst place on earth right now for coronavirus. [00:03:00] And they are, all the experts think that they've completely underestimated the amount of deaths, and they're still leading the world in recent weeks by a large margin. [00:03:11] You know, this is not exactly surprising. [00:03:14] It's one thing for this stuff to hit a developed economy and healthcare system like ours, which is, it's still difficult to deal with when it goes to places like Brazil, where there's all sorts of systemic problems going on anyway. [00:03:26] Yeah. [00:03:26] It gets ugly. [00:03:27] And now he apparently, they don't know for sure that he has it. [00:03:30] However, he has a lot of the symptoms and the weird blood oxygen level situation that is hitting a lot of people with this. [00:03:40] That is apparently hitting him as well. [00:03:42] So they don't know what's going on with that. [00:03:44] But that's another possibility. [00:03:46] Does he have a fever? [00:03:47] I think he does have a fever. [00:03:48] Yeah. [00:03:49] Uh-oh. [00:03:49] Yeah. [00:03:50] It sounds bad. [00:03:51] Sounds like it's COVID, right? [00:03:53] It does. [00:03:53] They do think it's COVID, but he hasn't. [00:03:55] He's finally decided, all right, I'll get a test. [00:03:57] Does he have a dandruff? [00:03:58] Because that's another new sign, new dandruff. [00:04:01] Yeah, dandruff. [00:04:03] It's one of the signs that you have it. [00:04:04] It's one of your symptoms. [00:04:05] Oh, you're absolutely. [00:04:06] I didn't know. [00:04:07] Combination skin. [00:04:09] Another one. [00:04:09] That's another one. [00:04:10] So if you've got either dandruff or combination skin, you probably have COVID-19. [00:04:15] What about a cough that keeps you awake? [00:04:17] No, that doesn't. [00:04:18] It doesn't have anything to do with it. [00:04:19] No. [00:04:20] By the way, I was listening to, I think it was the New York Times this week, and they're talking about coronavirus. [00:04:25] I'm like, there's four new things we know about coronavirus. [00:04:27] And they're going through them. [00:04:28] And then they start building it up. [00:04:31] And they're like, well, let's start with something that we're pretty sure on. [00:04:35] This one is not upper respiratory disease. [00:04:39] What? [00:04:39] I'm like, wait, what? [00:04:41] It's not a respiratory disease. [00:04:43] It's not a respiratory disease. [00:04:45] And I'm like, wait, wait. [00:04:47] Apparently they believe it's now in the blood vessels, which is, I think, what you were kind of mocking there about everything seems to be a coronavirus symptom. [00:04:56] Yes. [00:04:57] That's why they think this is happening because what you're saying is real. [00:05:00] Like they're like, why is it causing all these weird problems? [00:05:03] They think now it gets into your body in the respiratory system, which is what they believe from the beginning, but it winds up getting into your blood vessels so it can spread anywhere your blood spreads. [00:05:13] So that makes it a really fun thing to deal with. [00:05:16] Wow. [00:05:16] And the fact that they're out there going like, yeah, you know, we pretty much at this point think it's not a respiratory illness. [00:05:22] Wait a minute. [00:05:24] Wait, wait a minute. [00:05:25] What? [00:05:26] Now, they think it's that doesn't mean it spreads differently. [00:05:29] But again, there's a new thing out from a bunch of doctors and experts around the world are trying to get the World Health Organization to take back their belief that it was, that it's not, that it can't be airborne. [00:05:43] You know, there's an idea of like a droplet where you would spread it, right? [00:05:46] The sort of yucky, I have to picture someone sneezing in someone else's face type of thing, which is always fun, especially maybe if you just had a meal. [00:05:55] They are now saying that they think it can be aerosol. [00:05:58] Didn't they say aerosol? [00:05:59] Yeah, which is a big idea. [00:06:00] It just hangs in the air. [00:06:02] So it does. [00:06:02] You can spread it through the air. [00:06:04] That one I would say there's a disagreement on is where they are right now. [00:06:07] And that's one of the things that's hard on this. [00:06:10] And I think it's mostly the media's fault, although scientists definitely have a part in this as well, which is acting too sure about things they're not sure about. [00:06:20] You know, when they come out and there's like, well, look, 100% chance, it's stupid for you to buy a mask. [00:06:27] What kind of moron would buy a mask? [00:06:29] It doesn't protect you at all. [00:06:30] It doesn't protect you at all. [00:06:32] It's basically, it is like a magnet for the virus. [00:06:35] It pulls it in through the mask. [00:06:38] The virus particles look for masks around the room and they fire at the masks and it infects you. [00:06:43] And then a couple weeks later, they're like, oh, yeah, by the way, we were totally wrong on that. [00:06:47] If you don't wear a mask, you're basically... [00:06:49] It's a death sentence for you. [00:06:50] Yeah. [00:06:50] And others around you. [00:06:52] You're killing everyone. [00:06:52] So what are normal people supposed to take from that? [00:06:55] That you don't know what you're talking about. [00:06:57] That's what they get. [00:06:57] Yeah. [00:06:58] You know, instead of just being honest and saying, like, look, here's the situation. [00:07:02] Masks work in some of these situations. [00:07:04] Might be a good idea to wear them. [00:07:06] I think they help. [00:07:07] Yeah. [00:07:07] They don't prevent it. [00:07:08] No, definitely not. [00:07:09] It's not 100%, but it lessens the chance, I think. [00:07:13] And everyone knows this. [00:07:14] This has become some political issue, right? [00:07:16] We all internally are aware that if you sneeze and you have a mask on, it's going to be gross for you, but less gross for other people. [00:07:28] Here's what we do, a way to illustrate this completely. [00:07:32] Every time your kid is about to sneeze, what do you say? [00:07:36] Bless you. [00:07:36] Well, that's what you say afterwards. [00:07:37] But what do you say before? [00:07:38] Oh, cover your mouth, right? [00:07:40] Why do you cover your mouth? [00:07:41] That's just a mask. [00:07:43] It's a temporary mask when a sneeze is occurring. [00:07:45] That's why you cover your mouth or you put your arm, you know, and now you're supposed to do it into your like into your arm instead of covering your mouth with your hand, whatever. [00:07:53] The reason why you do that is because you don't want to spread droplets. [00:07:56] So if you're wearing a mask, yes, it's going to be less likely. [00:07:59] If you're talking loudly, they've done tons of experiments on this. [00:08:03] You're going to block. [00:08:04] I mean, this is obvious. [00:08:05] If you put a t-shirt in front of your face, it's going to hit the t-shirt, right? [00:08:10] That does not stop all viral particles because they're a lot smaller than that, but it will help from a droplets spread situation. [00:08:16] Which is why they're telling people at church not to sing. [00:08:20] Yeah, which is like, it's so weird because again, when you come out and you say it's okay to chant at full volume whose life matter, black lives matter, when that's okay. [00:08:35] Oh, that had nothing to do with anything. [00:08:37] Why did you even bring that up? [00:08:38] What a racist. [00:08:40] Exactly. [00:08:40] When you're a racist for even bringing that up. [00:08:42] And by the way, Hillary on the Four Minute Buzz was just talking about a story where now they do think there was a rise in cases from the protests. [00:08:52] Which is shocking. [00:08:53] But they've been denying that too, Pat. [00:08:55] I know. [00:08:56] They said, and like, what are the big, when you actually looked at the reports, the best part was they're like, okay, well, let's look at the stats. [00:09:03] There's been no spikes in these cities. [00:09:05] And people are like, well, there's been spikes in the age groups of the people who were 20 to 29? [00:09:10] That's gone up a ton. [00:09:12] What's going on? [00:09:12] And then you read the report in more depth and you realize what they're saying is. [00:09:18] The protests were basically so out of control that losers in the suburbs, like myself, stayed the hell inside no matter what on those weekends. [00:09:29] So there were a lot less overall people out. [00:09:32] So the spread maybe wasn't a huge explosion. [00:09:35] It may have spiked in those communities that were out protesting. [00:09:38] But everyone else is like, I'm going to cower in my house because they're lighting all the buildings I like on fire. [00:09:43] I'm going to stay inside for a while. [00:09:45] And that may have been what didn't cause massive outbreaks in those areas on those weekends. [00:09:51] But there were still spikes in these age groups. [00:09:53] And, you know, that's a big difference. [00:09:54] It does not make protesting okay. [00:09:56] And the fact that medical doctors and experts were coming out publicly and saying, you know what? [00:10:02] Racism is an even bigger deal than this pandemic. [00:10:05] And it's okay to protest it. [00:10:07] No, it's not. [00:10:08] It's not a bigger deal. [00:10:10] There is, we did this at the time. [00:10:14] There are, if you take all the shootings that police officers, all fatal shootings from police officers, black or white, guilty or innocent, justified or not, someone charging at you with a gun or a knife or not, every police shooting and combine it together, you get about a thousand per year. [00:10:33] We've lost 133,000 people to coronavirus in two months, three months. [00:10:38] So that's only 133 years worth of police shootings. [00:10:42] Police shootings in three months. [00:10:43] So yes, there is absolutely no justification to go and protest in the way that they were doing it. [00:10:50] Now, look, people on the conservative side did protests too. [00:10:53] And again, I don't think in either circumstance, you should be banning them. [00:10:58] We have a constitutional right to do it. [00:11:00] So to ban a constitutional right, you have to have the hurdle. [00:11:05] I can't even there's not even a hurdle really to do this. [00:11:10] However, is it a good idea to go out and protest in small groups, especially if you're close together and you might go indoors? [00:11:16] No, it's not a good idea right now. [00:11:17] It's not. [00:11:19] It would be, it's better to, you can always protest in a few months. [00:11:24] The right to protest should stick around. [00:11:27] It's up to you, I think. [00:11:28] If you want to go do these things, I don't think government should be stopping them. [00:11:31] But still, you have to acknowledge when you're a medical expert, you know, the same way churches lose credibility, Pat, where they will come out and say, well, in this particular case, it's obviously okay for X, Y, and Z behavior that's explicitly banned in the Bible. [00:11:49] When you start doing that sort of crap, it ruins your reputation among the people who are coming to you because they're coming to you for a foundational truth. [00:11:58] You have no credibility. [00:12:00] None. [00:12:00] They're coming to you for, when I am having a tough time personally, where do I go? [00:12:05] I go to a place that does not change their principles, right? [00:12:08] And so that's just become so trendy these days. [00:12:10] Everybody changes their principle for every reason. [00:12:13] And it's inexcusable. [00:12:15] It's one of the most inexcusable things that's happened in the pandemic for medical professionals to encourage protests at all during this. [00:12:24] Now, I will say, being outdoors, you probably have a much lower, I think, I'm of the belief that most things outdoors are pretty much fine. [00:12:34] If you could take basic precautions outside, you're probably going to be fine. [00:12:38] And I think that's shown to be true. [00:12:40] There's multiple studies that show that from around the world. [00:12:43] But you certainly shouldn't be encouraging extra behavior where people gather in groups of 30,000 shoulder to shoulder. [00:12:51] That's not a good idea. [00:12:53] Like on that street in Los Angeles where they showed that crowd. [00:12:57] That was an unbelievable crowd. [00:12:58] I don't know how many, nobody ever said how many people were there that I ever saw. [00:13:01] No, but you know what they did say? [00:13:02] They said what you said. [00:13:03] It was unbelievable. [00:13:04] And you know why they said it that way? [00:13:05] Look at the showing. [00:13:07] Look at the incredible support for Black Lives Matter. [00:13:10] It had nothing to do with it. [00:13:13] These people are all going to be sick in two weeks. [00:13:15] And what's happened? [00:13:16] And they are in Los Angeles. [00:13:18] California is one of the biggest areas of outbreak. [00:13:20] Yep. [00:13:21] And we don't, I mean, it's not one of the things. [00:13:25] You're never going to come to the answer and say, okay, well, it looks like all the virus came from this area. [00:13:29] It's not the way it works. [00:13:30] People are transmitting it before they even know they have symptoms. [00:13:33] Some are transmitting it when they never have symptoms. [00:13:36] So you're never going to know who you got it from unless like your wife has it and you realize you caught it person to person that way. [00:13:43] These group things are going to be impossible to trace overall. [00:13:46] But it's common sense that at the very least, you shouldn't be encouraging this behavior. [00:13:52] Right. [00:13:52] You shouldn't be saying, hey, let's everyone gather together in the tightest group possible. [00:13:57] That's insane. [00:13:59] And forget the fact that we all are aware that a protest, one and any individual protest is not going to overturn racism. [00:14:07] It's not even going to work. === Why Masks From Door To Table (05:29) === [00:14:08] Like, what are you going to do? [00:14:10] Yes, will you get Aunt Jemima taken off the shelves? [00:14:14] I guess. [00:14:14] You got the pancakes off the shelves. [00:14:16] That probably does improve people's health. [00:14:18] I don't know. [00:14:18] Maybe it does more than coronavirus because they are delicious pancakes. [00:14:23] And the fact that they're gone, by the way, taken away from the group most favorable to Aunt Jemima, African Americans, who buy them at a rate of like four times as much as any other group, which you guys weren't offended enough. [00:14:36] We have to rip it off the shelves. [00:14:37] This is insane behavior. [00:14:39] And it's understandable that people don't want to listen to any of these mandates or any of these recommendations because every two days they change. [00:14:45] Right. [00:14:45] You know, and that's the. [00:14:46] That's credibility. [00:14:47] Yeah. [00:14:47] You've lost all credibility. [00:14:49] And then you wonder, well, why won't people listen to us about the masks? [00:14:53] Why? [00:14:54] Why won't they listen? [00:14:56] That's why you have no credibility anymore. [00:14:57] Yeah. [00:14:58] And it's not just like, it's not just saying, okay, here's the news of the day. [00:15:03] Here's the science of the day. [00:15:04] Follow it. [00:15:04] It's you're a terrible person if you don't. [00:15:07] So when you say you're a terrible person if you buy a mask, and then two weeks later you're saying, please buy masks. [00:15:12] You have to understand that people are not going to deal with that well. [00:15:16] It's your job to give clear information that you don't change every two days. [00:15:21] And if you're going, if you're worried about changing it, you have to express the uncertainty and say, look, we think masks will help. [00:15:28] We're not 100% sure that we're going through this with you guys. [00:15:31] We're trying to figure it out as we go. [00:15:33] This is our recommendation right now. [00:15:34] It may change. [00:15:35] In two weeks, we may tell you the opposite. [00:15:37] I don't know. [00:15:37] But we're going to do our best to try to protect each other. [00:15:40] That's an adult way to approach it. [00:15:41] And they won't do it that way. [00:15:43] No. [00:15:43] AAAAAA, 727B-E-C-K. [00:15:47] All right. [00:15:48] Remember all those days back in the day when COVID wasn't around and you used to just sit around at work and listen to those boring meetings, the kind where everyone's falling all over themselves to build a PowerPoint to solve problems that don't exist to begin with. [00:16:01] Don't you miss that part of work? [00:16:03] Remember how you wish you had a pair of small, discrete earbuds that you could listen to the Glenn Beck program while nodding your head and pretending to be participating? [00:16:11] Well, those meetings are over, but for how long? [00:16:14] Soon you may be required to see people again. [00:16:17] What you need is a pair of Raycon earbuds. [00:16:19] Raycon, I just found out about this company. [00:16:22] I will tell you, I spent two hours trying to figure out some stupid issue with my Apple earpods the other day. [00:16:28] I want Raycons. [00:16:30] This is the Everyday E25 earbud. [00:16:32] They are the best earbuds Raycon has put out. [00:16:35] They have six hours of playtime, seamless Bluetooth pairing, which is infuriating if you have the Apple kind. [00:16:42] More base, more compact design that gives you a nice isolating fit. [00:16:46] This is going to be great. [00:16:47] Raycon wireless earbuds are about half the price as the leading earbuds. [00:16:52] And I will say they're just as good or better from everything I've heard yet. [00:16:56] Glenn sings the praises like crazy. [00:16:59] They're stylish and discreet, and they have a one-size-fits-all fitting system. [00:17:02] So you're not going to be losing the meta your ears.

[00:17:30] And you know, part of the problem, too, on the COVID situation and the masks and wearing the mask is, are the policies of the places that are enforcing the mask wearing? [00:17:42] First of all, I think it's mandated by government pretty much everywhere now, right? [00:17:46] That you have to. [00:17:47] A lot of places, yeah. [00:17:48] I know. [00:17:48] Most cities in Texas now say you got to wear a mask if you want to come in. [00:17:51] The state of Texas now has that for most activities. [00:17:55] Almost everywhere you go. [00:17:57] And we went, like, I went to a restaurant the other day and you can't get in without a mask. [00:18:03] And I said, well, okay, how do you eat with a mask on? [00:18:07] Oh, well, you can take it off when you get to your table. [00:18:10] Yeah. [00:18:10] And so I'm only wearing the mask from the door to my table. [00:18:15] Right. [00:18:16] Okay, so I go in with the mask, sit down, look around. [00:18:20] Not a single person, you know, wants inside because they're going to eat. [00:18:24] Not a single person has a mask on. [00:18:26] They get up, they walk around the restaurant going to the bathroom or, you know, trying to find their waitress or waiter or whatever, but they're walking, mingling all over the restaurant now without a mask on. [00:18:41] It's so stupid. [00:18:43] So just walking from the door to the table saved everybody, but now I'm walking all around the restaurant without a mask on. [00:18:50] It's just so bizarre. [00:18:51] It doesn't make any sense. [00:18:53] You're not doing anything with that policy. [00:18:55] No, we were looking at some of the policies for school coming up because they're talking about how they're going to open up schools. [00:19:00] And they believe that there's going to be a mask mandate for the teachers in public areas. [00:19:06] So like, you know, when you're walking through the halls, you have the mask on, but when you get to the classroom, you can take it off. [00:19:10] And it's like, well, there's much more likely transmission of you sitting in the room with someone for hours on end than there is in a passing situation in a hallway. [00:19:20] And talking loud enough for everybody in the room to hear you. [00:19:22] Right. [00:19:23] It's the exact opposite of what you'd think would be the case. [00:19:26] But this is why it's never a good idea to try to do these things through the government. [00:19:31] That's the problem here. [00:19:32] Like, I think if you communicate to people, look, we think masks work if you can wear them in certain situations. === Why Clear Rules Prevent Revolt (03:09) === [00:19:38] Do it when you can. [00:19:39] Especially if you're indoors. [00:19:41] Everyone realizes if you're eating at a restaurant, you're not going to be able to wear a mask. [00:19:44] So making them wear it from the door to their table is just dumb. [00:19:48] It makes people not want to participate in your stupid program. [00:19:51] Instead, if you give people clear information that you don't change every few days and let people make up their own minds, you're much more likely to have people actually go along with it. [00:19:59] People who are pissed off and not be at each other's throats. [00:20:03] Because they're going to revolt. [00:20:04] They're going to say, look, you're telling me these things and we can all understand how dumb they are. [00:20:08] So therefore, I'm not going to participate. [00:20:11] And that becomes kind of a big issue because when no one participates, you do have to. [00:20:15] You get your backup and you say, I'm not doing this because the government is telling me to. [00:20:22] We believe in our rights as Americans and don't believe the government should be forcing us to do certain things. [00:20:28] And that's one of them. [00:20:29] Yeah. [00:20:30] So instead of banning people going to church, maybe you communicate with the pastors of these churches and say, hey, guys, just so you know, this is what we think is the big risk activity. [00:20:39] How about taking it outside? [00:20:40] That would be a great solution to this. [00:20:41] Have people come up in their cars. [00:20:42] Instead, they're going after people in their cars. [00:20:44] They're finding them. [00:20:45] Yeah. [00:20:46] And it makes people revolt and not listen to your stupid advice because it doesn't make any sense. [00:20:51] 888-727-BECK.

[00:22:40] Triple 8-727-BECK in a world where nothing makes any sense whatsoever. === Hamilton's Cultural Appropriation Debate (03:52) === [00:22:48] A guy who is absolutely celebrated for the last five years for his play on Broadway, Hamilton, Lynn Manuel Miranda. [00:22:56] Oh, this is a good story. [00:22:57] What a hero the guy is. [00:22:59] Oh, yeah. [00:23:00] Because he took white people and made them black. [00:23:03] If you tried the reverse of that, if you had a bunch of black people that you decided, eh, I'm going to put white actors in there. [00:23:10] Can you imagine? [00:23:10] They'd tear down the theater. [00:23:12] Oh, yeah. [00:23:12] And we've seen it. [00:23:13] I mean, they've canceled all of these people. [00:23:15] They have to come crying and begging for your forgiveness for accepting a job they were offered. [00:23:19] But okay, they made all the founding fathers black and Lynn Manuel Miranda, I think, is Hispanic, and he was playing Hamilton. [00:23:26] So it was celebrated by every person on the left. [00:23:30] Bill and Hillary Clinton loved it. [00:23:33] The Obamas adored it. [00:23:35] And when Mike Pence went to go see it, like he got booed in the audience, remember? [00:23:38] Right. [00:23:38] That's how woke they were. [00:23:40] Oh, so woke up and see our play. [00:23:43] Right. [00:23:44] Because it's woke and wonderful, and he doesn't deserve it. [00:23:47] He doesn't deserve it. [00:23:48] Well, now, all of a sudden. [00:23:50] Ooh, that's really problematic. [00:23:52] They say good things about the Founding Fathers. [00:23:54] You know, the Founding Fathers were actually white people, and they were slave owners. [00:23:58] And that's the only thing we can remember about them. [00:24:00] And can we talk about how problematic it is that you're taking black culture with the music and just taking it away from black people and putting it, foisting it upon the audience through a Hispanic man and white historical slave owners? [00:24:17] All of which is problematic. [00:24:18] All of it's problematic. [00:24:19] All of a sudden. [00:24:20] Yeah. [00:24:20] That's problematic. [00:24:22] Huh. [00:24:22] It's so amazing. [00:24:24] By the way, did we, does anybody know the Founding Fathers didn't actually rap? [00:24:29] Did we? [00:24:30] Did people know that? [00:24:31] Pardon me? [00:24:32] Yeah, they didn't. [00:24:33] The first rap song was like 1979, I think. [00:24:38] Something like that. [00:24:39] The Rapper's Delight by the Sugar Hill Gang. [00:24:41] That's right. [00:24:42] Yeah, that was post Founding Fathers. [00:24:45] Interestingly, that song started in 1979. [00:24:47] It's still going today. [00:24:50] It's the longest song. [00:24:51] I don't know. [00:24:52] All I remember them talking about dinner. [00:24:54] One of them was talking about having dinner over someone's house. [00:24:57] Oh, that's right. [00:24:58] That's all I remember about that song. [00:24:59] It's like, look, that's an interesting thing. [00:25:01] Not a lot of people do it. [00:25:03] Not a lot of people sing and perform about having dinner over someone's house. [00:25:07] The only part I remember about that song is Wham, Bam, Ho Jam, Holiday Inn. [00:25:13] And that meant a lot to me. [00:25:15] It meant a lot to me. [00:25:16] Oh, you have a bumper stick on your head. [00:25:18] Wham, bam, ho, jam, holiday inn. [00:25:20] Yeah, I was wondering, I wonder why he has that. [00:25:22] Now I know. [00:25:23] If your girlfriend diss you, then you take her friend, I think is how it goes. [00:25:28] Something like that. [00:25:28] Hey. [00:25:29] Yeah. [00:25:29] I want to make sure that everyone knows that we are not being critical in any way of high-level lyrics. [00:25:35] No, I love them. [00:25:36] I'm very critical of the Constitution and our founding documents, but not. [00:25:39] That's true. [00:25:43] But it is interesting because they have turned on this now completely. [00:25:47] They are saying that it is a big problem that this, you know, one of the things. [00:25:54] All of a sudden, now it's a big problem. [00:25:56] Right. [00:25:56] And what's interesting about the Hamilton thing in particular, because there's so many of these stories, but the Hamilton one is interesting in particular because the only reason to like Hamilton is if you respect the story of the founders. [00:26:09] Like if you love our country and love how it was founded and you want a different way to essentially get history, right? [00:26:15] Which is obviously a BS history, but still like it's an entertaining presentation of history. [00:26:19] But you have to like the history. [00:26:21] You have to think, oh, God, these guys did something great in our world because they actually do admit that in the play. [00:26:27] Right. [00:26:28] You can't do that now. [00:26:29] No, you can't. [00:26:29] That's a big problem. [00:26:30] Yeah. [00:26:31] It's so ridiculous. [00:26:32] All of these things that were designed to be woke, essentially, are now not woke enough. === Race, Voice, and Privilege (08:20) === [00:26:40] And that's the lesson. [00:26:40] You're never going to be woke enough. [00:26:42] There's never going to be a time where you're woke enough. [00:26:45] Hallie Berry yesterday. [00:26:47] Hallie Berry, as you may know, an African-American actress. [00:26:53] Wasn't she the first African-American actress to be nominated for best actress? [00:26:58] I don't remember which one it was. [00:26:59] She was in, she can't think of the name of the movie. [00:27:02] It was sort of a dark movie she was in. [00:27:06] But it was very well received. [00:27:08] Monster's Ball. [00:27:09] Monster's Ball. [00:27:10] Yeah, Monster's Ball. [00:27:10] Yeah. [00:27:11] And so she now is in retreat mode because she had the audacity to accept a job acting in a role as a transgendered person. [00:27:25] Now she herself. [00:27:26] She's not trans. [00:27:27] She is female. [00:27:29] One of the 900 female. [00:27:32] Biological female. [00:27:33] And I think identifies as such. [00:27:35] I think so. [00:27:36] I believe so. [00:27:37] And she now had to, you know, I should not have taken this role. [00:27:42] I'm so sorry. [00:27:44] She's apologizing to everybody. [00:27:45] And what's funny about it is like, this used to be the sign of a woke actress, right? [00:27:50] Right. [00:27:51] A beautiful woman who would take the role as, I mean, we saw it with a Charlie Stharin in Monster. [00:27:58] All uglied up. [00:28:00] Was that Monster's Ball or was that? [00:28:02] Monster's Ball and Monster are two different monsters. [00:28:04] They were both very dark. [00:28:04] It was Monster. [00:28:05] Monster was the female serial killer. [00:28:08] I like that. [00:28:08] And she was celebrated. [00:28:09] She had no makeup on and she didn't comb her hair. [00:28:12] Yeah. [00:28:12] So she really took a risk there. [00:28:14] There was like a kind of a comedian's trope over the years where it would be like you'd make fun of the actress who took the role as a handicapped person or the very straight actress who would take a job as a gay person to show that they understood those communities. [00:28:30] And that used to be the thing that would get you woke and get you an Oscar. [00:28:33] So now the thing is, you can't ugly yourself up. [00:28:35] You actually have to get an ugly actress to play that part. [00:28:39] That's actually a beautiful woman. [00:28:41] She can't play an ugly part. [00:28:42] Yeah. [00:28:42] What about ugly actresses? [00:28:43] How do they get gigs? [00:28:46] What about... [00:28:46] I want to see that happen. [00:28:48] I know. [00:28:49] I do too. [00:28:49] I want to see that happen now. [00:28:50] It can't be far away. [00:28:51] can't be what about taking what if there was someone who was not believable in their life and you're you're replacing them with an actress who's a good actress I think you'd have to have a crappy actress play the role of someone who can't act. [00:29:05] Definitely. [00:29:05] I mean, it sounds ridiculous. [00:29:07] Charlie Sthern had a similar incident lately, right? [00:29:09] With the transgender. [00:29:10] I think it was a transgender actress. [00:29:11] I think it was her, yeah. [00:29:12] This one I was fascinated by was Kristen Bell. [00:29:15] You may remember, she's married to Dax Shepard. [00:29:17] She's in a bunch of commercials. [00:29:19] She's been in very good jobs. [00:29:20] They're doing good commercials together. [00:29:21] Yeah, they're good. [00:29:22] She and her husband. [00:29:23] They're kind of a nice little couple, I think. [00:29:24] Yeah. [00:29:25] And so she took a role on a cartoon that I think is on Netflix. [00:29:30] And she plays a character called Molly on a show named Central Park. [00:29:38] I've never seen the show. [00:29:39] But this is her statement. [00:29:40] She came out now that it's the voice of a child who is mixed race. [00:29:45] Plus, she's not a child. [00:29:46] Right. [00:29:46] She's not a child. [00:29:47] Right. [00:29:48] Right. [00:29:48] What? [00:29:48] She's not a child and she's not mixed race. [00:29:50] And she was playing this role on this cartoon. [00:29:53] This is what she said. [00:29:54] This is her statement about her stepping down as the voice of a freaking cartoon character. [00:30:02] This is a time to acknowledge our acts of complicity. [00:30:07] Here is one of mine playing the character of Molly on Central Park shows a lack of awareness of my pervasive privilege. [00:30:15] Casting a mixed race character with a white actress undermines the specificity of the mixed race and black American experience. [00:30:25] Okay, first, it's mixed race. [00:30:27] So you can't have a black person do it, right? [00:30:30] Because it's the specificity of the mixed race experience. [00:30:34] You have to find someone who's mixed race. [00:30:37] And like, look, you're not. [00:30:39] She acts as if she was like an accountant for the SS. [00:30:43] Like, you didn't, like, you play. [00:30:47] You were the voice. [00:30:48] You're not complicit. [00:30:50] You played the voice of a cartoon character. [00:30:53] Relax, first of all. [00:30:58] Was anybody calling for her to step down from that role? [00:31:00] I don't think so. [00:31:01] I think you always get one or two activists that say this. [00:31:03] You know, it's the same thing that started like years ago when they were like, you know what? [00:31:06] Apu on the Simpsons. [00:31:07] Simpsons is a bad, is it problematic? [00:31:10] And at first, everyone's like, what? [00:31:12] Like, you know, first of all, he's seemingly a very good guy on the show, one of the only people on the show who's a good person. [00:31:19] And, you know, he's one of the most prominent roles. [00:31:22] And like, yeah, it's voiced by, you know, Ancazaria, but, you know, he does a silly voice. [00:31:27] He used to be okay. [00:31:28] Used to be okay. [00:31:28] Now, not okay. [00:31:29] Now Opu is gone. [00:31:31] Now, you might say to yourself, well, they could just get a mixed race character to go along. [00:31:36] Yeah. [00:31:37] No, you can't do that either. [00:31:38] Oh, you can't? [00:31:39] No, because Jenny Slade, Jenny Slate is another comedic actress who, of course, you remember from all of her works. [00:31:48] All the Jenny Slates across the spectrum. [00:31:50] Things that she does. [00:31:52] And does so well. [00:31:53] Yeah, the entire spectrum. [00:31:54] We're fans of all of them. [00:31:55] Yeah, I mean, all multi-format media empire or entertainment empire. [00:32:02] I just ordered her eight-track collection. [00:32:05] Did you really? [00:32:06] Yes, and it just came in. [00:32:07] It's incredible. [00:32:08] So she stepped down as well as the voice of a frigging cartoon because she is also white and playing the role of a mixed race. [00:32:16] Now, I don't know why this is so widespread in Hollywood. [00:32:18] I don't know why they're just realizing it now. [00:32:19] Here's her quote. [00:32:20] Now, again, she is a white person, but she's also Jewish. [00:32:25] Okay. [00:32:27] So again, you're Jewish. [00:32:28] You could say religion, race, all sorts of different things people say about that. [00:32:31] But she says this. [00:32:33] At the start of the show, I reasoned with myself that it was permissible for me to play Missy, which is a freaking cartoon character, by the way. [00:32:41] Because her mom is Jewish and white, as am I. [00:32:45] But Missy is also black, and black characters on an animated show should be played by black people. [00:32:50] Now, what about the white part? [00:32:53] The white part, right? [00:32:55] She is a literal match, white and Jewish, of the mom of this character. [00:33:00] And even that's not specific enough. [00:33:02] She had to abandon her job. [00:33:03] And I don't know her. [00:33:06] Does she have, does she have a lot of this stuff going? [00:33:09] Does she have offers of this level coming in like crazy? [00:33:11] I mean, she's, you know, Kristen Bell, her husband hosts one of the most popular podcasts in the country. [00:33:16] He's also an actor. [00:33:17] They make plenty of money. [00:33:18] They've got a $4 million house. [00:33:19] They're doing okay. [00:33:20] I don't know. [00:33:21] Is Jenny Slate doing okay? [00:33:22] She might be. [00:33:22] I don't know anything about her other than the 8-track collection that I just bought, so I don't know. [00:33:26] But like, this is what she says. [00:33:28] She says, engaging, playing Missy, she's engaging in an act of erasure of black people. [00:33:35] Ending my portrayal of Missy is one step in a lifelong process of uncovering the racism in my actions. [00:33:41] First of all, in this particular case, you are literally not erasing a black person. [00:33:46] You're drawing one. [00:33:47] It's the exact opposite of black erasure. [00:33:49] You're actually drawing a black person. [00:33:52] Okay? [00:33:52] That's number one. [00:33:53] Number two, I know, Pat, we're supposed to understand the stories of these women, and they own their own truth. [00:34:03] I hope you know that. [00:34:04] They own their own truth. [00:34:05] Right. [00:34:05] That's beautiful. [00:34:06] So who are we to disagree when they acknowledge their own racism? [00:34:11] When they say they're a racist, I guess they're racists. [00:34:14] I don't want to take that away from them. [00:34:17] I would say it doesn't sound very racist, but you know what? [00:34:19] They're saying they're racist, and I don't want to take their truth away from them. [00:34:22] Well, it's your white privilege saying that it's not racist. [00:34:25] Right. [00:34:25] It is racist. [00:34:26] It is racist. [00:34:26] It's their big, fat, dirty racist. [00:34:28] Yes. [00:34:29] They are basically David Duke in a cocktail dress. [00:34:31] Thank you. [00:34:32] And I'm glad they have admitted that and expressed their truth. [00:34:36] I wouldn't have necessarily seen it that way, but they've told us that they're racist. [00:34:41] So we must accept their racism. [00:34:43] Who are we? [00:34:44] Who are we? [00:34:45] I'm not a racist. [00:34:46] If I was doing a character like Missy, I would say, why am I a man doing it? [00:34:51] And they'd say, how dare you? [00:34:53] What if it's a trans child? [00:34:54] And then I would say, well, I'm not a child. [00:34:56] They'd say, well, I guess if you are identifying as a child, then you are. === Howard Stern's Racist Confession (04:28) === [00:35:00] This is the thing. [00:35:01] You just need to get out ahead of these things. [00:35:03] Before you accept the role, you need to identify in the nine different ways that define the character, which, by the way, we are talking about a job. [00:35:13] The only requirement of this job is pretending to be something that you're not. [00:35:18] It is acting. [00:35:20] It's legitimately, fundamentally the only thing you have to do in this job is pretending you're someone that you're not. [00:35:27] And they still can't get this through their heads. [00:35:30] You're never going to have, unless you get the person, you're going to have to do, every movie's going to have to be like private parts with Howard Stern where they all play themselves. [00:35:37] Because it's the only person you're allowed to play. [00:35:40] I can be specific as Howard Stern, I can play Howard Stern. [00:35:45] As Robin Quivers, I can play Robin Quivers. [00:35:47] Outside of that, how can you even have this industry anymore? [00:35:50] This is all nonsensical. [00:35:52] And there's no limiting principle here, Pat. [00:35:54] You know, there's no reason why what I'm saying as Howard Stern can only play Howard Stern is untrue. [00:36:02] There's no part of their reasoning that makes it so that wouldn't be the case. [00:36:06] There's no limiting principle on this. [00:36:09] Quite the opposite. [00:36:10] Yeah. [00:36:10] Triple 8727, BECK. [00:36:14] So here's another example of American ingenuity. [00:36:17] I recently learned of a Dayton, Ohio-based women-owned startup called Tempogenics. [00:36:23] Now, this is a company that distributes disposable eco-friendly forehead thermometers called Tempin Toss. [00:36:28] And that's what I want to talk to you about. [00:36:30] Friends and colleagues Shelly and April got together and co-founded Tempogenics. [00:36:35] It's Tempin Toss. [00:36:36] Well, the original purpose was to allow moms just to monitor their children's temperatures. [00:36:41] But now in the wake of COVID-19, this pandemic, TempinToss has taken another important role, helping Americans get back to work safely. [00:36:49] Employers can use the thermometers to check employees' temperatures and monitor them for up to 48 hours. [00:36:55] Tempin Toss is proud to hire adults with disabilities, and they're available at tempentos.com slash back to work. [00:37:04] That's tempentos.com slash back to work. [00:37:07] Or you can find them at major retailers or by emailing Shelly in April at support at tempogenics.com. [00:37:14] Tomorrow night, the pandemic. [00:37:16] It's quite disturbing. [00:37:17] We're setting records practically every day. [00:37:20] The protests. [00:37:20] Protests have turned violent in California, but. [00:37:23] The riots. [00:37:26] Is it all just a deep state distraction? [00:37:28] Glenn reveals why the case against General Flynn exposes everything and why the conspiracy to take down President Trump is still not over. [00:37:36] Who will pay for the crimes against our democracy? [00:37:38] Tomorrow night, 9 p.m. Eastern, only at Blazetv.com slash Glenn. [00:37:47] This is the Glenn Beck Program. [00:37:57] 888-727-BEC is the phone number. [00:37:59] It's Pat and Stu. [00:38:00] And for Glenn, who's out sick, we assume only the worst, as we always do every time he takes a day off. [00:38:07] We assume COVID-19. [00:38:09] COVID-19 combined with leprosy. [00:38:11] Yeah. [00:38:12] That's the only thing. [00:38:13] That's what I think until he tells me differently. [00:38:15] I think his left arm fell off last night. [00:38:17] Really? [00:38:17] Yeah. [00:38:17] Oh my gosh. [00:38:19] You don't want that to happen. [00:38:20] Yeah. [00:38:20] You don't want that to happen. [00:38:22] You don't. [00:38:22] No. [00:38:22] You don't. [00:38:23] And I will say this. [00:38:24] The only good thing about it is that he could, in the future, play someone with leprosy in a movie. [00:38:31] And a one-armed person. [00:38:32] And a one-armed person. [00:38:33] Because that's great. [00:38:34] Now, I will say this. [00:38:35] If he had to play the role of someone whose right arm fell off, he could not play that. [00:38:39] He couldn't. [00:38:40] No, he couldn't. [00:38:40] No. [00:38:41] Because he has his right arm. [00:38:42] He has his right arm. [00:38:43] To this point. [00:38:44] We don't know. [00:38:46] We don't know how long that lasts. [00:38:47] No, we don't. [00:38:48] No. [00:38:49] If they both fall off, he could not play the role of a one-armed person. [00:38:54] It's certainly not a two-armed person. [00:38:55] Now, can you go the other way? [00:38:56] If you amputate both legs, could you play, let's say, a quadriplegic? [00:39:02] Where you lose both arms and both legs. [00:39:04] So you're intentionally. [00:39:05] Do you intentionally amputate your legs? [00:39:07] Can you get the part? [00:39:08] Or do you already have to have been a no-limbed person in order to play the part? [00:39:14] We'll have to ask Gary Sinice because he was Lieutenant Dan, but they used to leave the computer. [00:39:19] I mean, that's wrong. [00:39:20] They have to physically amputate those limbs now for him to play that role. [00:39:24] Just shows how much do you want it, Gary? [00:39:26] How much do you want it, Gary? === Why Norton 360 Matters Now (05:13) === [00:39:29] Hey, everybody knows PayPal.

[00:44:41] Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program. === Black Lives Matter and Fascism (13:36) === [00:44:43] Triple lead. [00:44:44] 727-B-E-C-K. [00:44:46] There's just an Orwellian feel right now. [00:44:49] There's a fascist feel for such fascism going on. [00:44:55] This would be, you would think, where a group like, I don't know, somebody fought against fascism, like anti-fascists, like something, maybe if you abbreviated that, Antifa, maybe they would fight against what's going on. [00:45:09] No, no, actually, they do quite the opposite. [00:45:13] But is it not fascist when you fire people for their writings, for their thoughts, for their feelings? [00:45:21] Is it not, is there not something wrong with this when you, a University of Massachusetts Lowell dean, it's a nursing school. [00:45:29] It's a University of UMass's nursing school. [00:45:32] The dean of that school was just fired because she had the nerve to send an email out that said, everyone's life matters. [00:45:45] Now, before she said everyone's life, she said, yes, black lives matter, but everyone's life matters. [00:45:53] And that got her fired. [00:45:57] Jeez. [00:45:58] So you just, if you say black lives matter, you must just leave it at that. [00:46:02] Just black lives matter, period. [00:46:05] Because no lives matter until black lives matter. [00:46:09] We all know that, right? [00:46:10] And then, so that's just the end of the statement. [00:46:14] Like a lot of people right now are saying, well, I know violence isn't right, but, but when it comes to Black Lives Matter, there is no but. [00:46:22] You just say Black Lives Matter and you leave it at that. [00:46:25] It's interesting. [00:46:26] The qualifiers work in some cases and not others. [00:46:28] Not in this one. [00:46:29] Right. [00:46:29] I don't understand. [00:46:30] I was seeing, you know, they have these, there's so much just condescending nonsense online where you get people, activists, like, let me explain to white people what Black Lives Matter really means. [00:46:45] Right. [00:46:45] Like, I hate it. [00:46:49] I don't need your explanations. [00:46:50] I get what you're going for here. [00:46:52] Do you get what we're going for when we say all lives matter? [00:46:55] And it's like, it doesn't mean that like Black Lives Matter any less. [00:46:59] No, or that they don't matter. [00:47:00] Nobody. [00:47:01] I don't know a single person in the world who believes that. [00:47:03] Does anybody? [00:47:04] Have you ever, I mean, maybe there's some racists somewhere that David Duke probably may be a fan of Black Lives. [00:47:09] Right. [00:47:10] But I think most normal people, the vast majority of people on this earth, six out of the 7 billion, at least believe that black lives matter. [00:47:21] Yes, of course. [00:47:22] And there was some graphic. [00:47:24] They always do this, like try to like, the activists are like, here's a graphic so you understand what we're saying. [00:47:31] And it was like, what people think when they hear black lives matter. [00:47:35] And it was like a bunch of hands kind of raised and then the black life raised above all the other fists. [00:47:42] So basically to show that what people think is that black lives matter more than everyone else. [00:47:47] And here's what it really means. [00:47:48] And like all the colors fist were all raised at the same level, like they're all equal. [00:47:53] It's like, who's expressing that better? [00:47:55] All lives matter expresses what you're saying better that black lives matter. [00:47:59] Do you understand? [00:48:01] Like these things, the noises you make with your mouth, they're called words. [00:48:07] They mean things. [00:48:09] They mean things. [00:48:12] When you say dog, that means a little four-legged furry thing that's going around and panting at your leg. [00:48:18] That's what it is. [00:48:19] It's a dog. [00:48:20] You can't just say dog lives matter. [00:48:22] And what you really mean are Indian Americans, right? [00:48:26] Like it is dog lives matter mean dogs. [00:48:30] Black lives matter mean black people. [00:48:32] We got it. [00:48:32] They do matter. [00:48:33] How about saying all lives matter so we can all show everybody's life, everybody's life matters equally. [00:48:40] That's a really easy way to understand that. [00:48:43] One group is not prioritized over another. [00:48:46] And yet completely unacceptable. [00:48:48] Completely unacceptable. [00:48:51] Because again, how many times do I have to tell you no life matters until black lives matter? [00:48:57] I don't. [00:49:00] There's never going to be a time in which that test is satisfied. [00:49:04] They're never going to say it matters enough. [00:49:06] You're never woke enough. [00:49:08] And like the idea that you can come out and say, yes, black lives matter, but all lives matter. [00:49:15] That is going a step beyond what any person who knows the English language should need to go. [00:49:23] You're already all lives matter includes black lives. [00:49:26] You should not need to see. [00:49:27] By definition, kind of, yeah. [00:49:29] You should not do it. [00:49:30] Now, I would say that maybe all lives matter does need to be explained because there's millions of lives that get aborted every year that no one seems to care about. [00:49:39] And no one seems to bring up that on that side of the aisle. [00:49:43] Although, I guess occasionally it does happen, even in college, there's a new video out. [00:49:50] This is from St. Andrew's College. [00:49:54] And I'm pretty sure you're supposed to get canceled for this, Pat. [00:49:57] You're not allowed to make it through a speech like this. [00:50:00] You can't express these ideas in any way, shape, or form. [00:50:03] Here it is. [00:50:04] This is from St. Andrew's College. [00:50:05] You know, black lives do matter. [00:50:07] Listen. [00:50:10] Hey, wokey McWokeface. [00:50:13] Quick question. [00:50:15] This black life mattered, but doesn't this one? [00:50:19] We know this black life matters. [00:50:22] So why doesn't this one? [00:50:23] Fetus. [00:50:24] We believe that all these black lives matter. [00:50:27] And tens of millions of others too. [00:50:30] Murdered in the most dangerous place in this country for any black life. [00:50:34] A womb. [00:50:36] Murdered. [00:50:36] and dissected and sold. [00:50:40] We believe that each and every human life matters because every human life, regardless of culture or color, is crafted in the sacred image of Almighty God, which is the only possible reason why any life could matter at all. [00:50:54] We believe that secular progressive white supremacists have been running a vile and genocidal population control campaign against blacks in America that has straddled centuries, trying to keep them from life, from adulthood, from power, from stable families and communities. [00:51:12] And that matters. [00:51:14] We believe that the organization Black Lives Matter, registered trademark, is a Marxist front that doesn't care about black lives even half as much as an average white pro-life flyover Trump voting evangelical. [00:51:28] Every single black life matters from conception to the grave and beyond into eternity. [00:51:35] That is God's truth. [00:51:37] And it's a hell of a lot more than BLM can say. [00:51:40] This shouldn't be hard, but clear thinking is rare these days, especially on college campuses. [00:51:47] All lives matter. [00:51:50] All black lives matter. [00:51:53] All. [00:51:54] Behind a badge. [00:51:56] What? [00:51:57] On the street. [00:51:58] In the womb. [00:51:59] Oh, my God. [00:52:00] Oh, no. [00:52:00] Philosophy matters. [00:52:02] Theology matters. [00:52:04] History matters. [00:52:05] Oh, come on. [00:52:06] Thinking matters. [00:52:08] No, it does not. [00:52:09] Learn to think in unthinking times. [00:52:12] New St. Andrews College. [00:52:14] Clear thinking, clear teaching. [00:52:17] In person this fall. [00:52:19] Wow. [00:52:20] Is that great? [00:52:20] In person this fall, too. [00:52:21] A little snap there, maybe. [00:52:23] And they're actually going to be in their classrooms rather than online, which is pretty cool. [00:52:27] I guess it's in Idaho. [00:52:28] I had not heard of it until they did this. [00:52:31] And it's a great way to be introduced to the school because that was powerful. [00:52:35] It was really good. [00:52:36] We hear so much about racism and how white people don't care about black lives. [00:52:40] I can tell you this. [00:52:41] Let's just say a fantasy world exists. [00:52:44] Fantasy baseball drafts coming up next week. [00:52:46] You have the little fantasy like fantasy sports where you manage these teams and try to figure out how things would go if you were just the manager. [00:52:53] Let's say, let's do a fantasy league here where all conservative policies get passed and all liberal policies get passed in two different worlds. [00:53:03] How many black people are alive in the conservative policy world? [00:53:07] A lot more. [00:53:08] 14 million more. [00:53:10] 14 million more. [00:53:10] Yeah. [00:53:11] You might say, well, what about in your world, police might shoot 10 people per year instead of nine? [00:53:16] Yeah, it's still 14, well, 13,999,9, not quite, that's as nice. [00:53:25] Conservatives. [00:53:26] I'm not good at math while I'm on the air. [00:53:28] But conservatives seem to be incredibly terrible at this whole racism thing. [00:53:33] Yeah. [00:53:33] Where we, what we're doing is that we would have millions of black people to be born and have a chance at life to be able to achieve whatever they want. [00:53:42] Because their lives matter to us. [00:53:43] Because they matter. [00:53:44] Yeah. [00:53:45] You know, I know if we implemented liberal world, there'd be a lot more access to abortion. [00:53:50] Right. [00:53:50] So there'd be probably a lot less white lives, but also a lot less black lives. [00:53:55] And what is the statistic about Planned Parenthood operations that they set up almost exclusively in black neighborhoods, in minority neighborhoods? [00:54:05] So weird. [00:54:05] 80% was the statistic I heard recently. [00:54:10] 80% of Planned Parenthood outlets are in minority neighborhoods. [00:54:16] Wonder why that is. [00:54:17] Weird. [00:54:17] Wonder why that is. [00:54:18] That's so weird. [00:54:18] It's not because of the fundamental roots of the entire organization are based in this behavior of taking out undesirables. [00:54:26] Nothing to do with that. [00:54:27] But that's, you're just getting that from the founder of Planned Parenthood, Martin Sanger. [00:54:31] That's fair. [00:54:33] Why would you go there with that? [00:54:35] It's a good criticism. [00:54:36] Yeah. [00:54:36] There. [00:54:38] It's inexplicable that this is the way this gets translated. [00:54:42] You know, look, of course, when there are these cases, and this is the problem. [00:54:47] These are individual cases. [00:54:49] And when you have a country of 330 million, you're going to get some people who are who basically, to broaden it, everything happens too, right? [00:54:59] Like I watched a video this weekend of a woman trying to jump off a roof into a pool and she got nervous halfway on the approach, jumped, didn't make it halfway, landed on the roof below, and then tumbled into the pool and was miraculously okay. [00:55:14] It's called alcohol. [00:55:17] And that happened to someone this weekend on video. [00:55:21] There is no way in a country of 330 million people that you can eliminate what looks like last year about five incidents where a white officer did something to a black person who was being arrested that was unarmed in a way that was not justified. [00:55:39] it's almost impossible out of the nine that happened five of them you think i'm being generous there i I mean, like, one of the, again, one of the shootings, this is real. [00:55:49] One of the shootings that we count when we say nine unarmed black people were killed last year. [00:55:53] One of these shootings was a man who had previously been in a shootout with police. [00:56:00] Now he had already done that, a real shootout where he was shooting guns at police officers. [00:56:05] Then he was in another altercation with police. [00:56:08] He told police officers that he had a gun and was going to start killing them. [00:56:13] Oh, and they believed him. [00:56:14] And they believed him and shot him and he didn't actually have the gun. [00:56:18] So that's one of the nine that we're talking about. [00:56:21] Another one is like the person got shot. [00:56:24] They had a weapon, but they didn't have it in their hands. [00:56:26] It was in the car. [00:56:28] There's a lot of these types of incidents. [00:56:30] You know, you're making split decisions and sometimes it's bad police work. [00:56:34] It's true. [00:56:35] Sometimes police make mistakes. [00:56:37] Often, though, it's just very justified. [00:56:39] So it's something like four or five of the nine looked suspicious. [00:56:43] And sometimes there have been charges filed and those things, but you can't eliminate it. [00:56:47] Think about this. [00:56:49] We know the violence. [00:56:50] You're 18 and a half times as likely to be murdered by a black person as a police officer than the other way around when it comes to an unarmed person being in the George Floyd situation. [00:57:02] You're much more likely to feel it the other way. [00:57:04] All of these statistics align with the idea that while there are cases that are wrong and need to be stopped, this is not a systemic problem. [00:57:14] I compare it to when you have some of these true crime shows and they'll feature this beautiful white blonde college co-ed that gets somehow abducted and taken away from her college, disappears on the news every single night. [00:57:34] And people make the observation, like not kind of in a critical way, hey, it's not just young white college co-eds that get abducted. [00:57:44] And if you look at the stats, you'd realize that's true, right? [00:57:46] Like that's actually a really rare circumstance. [00:57:48] It doesn't happen very often, but it's the one always highlighted by the news. [00:57:53] Same situation here. [00:57:55] This is the same situation. [00:57:57] It is not all that common for a police officer to just kill some random citizen for no reason. [00:58:04] It's just not a systemic problem in our country at this time. [00:58:07] And we should be thankful for that instead of saying, well, only highlighting these situations. [00:58:13] Every once in a while, when you have one of these situations like a George Floyd, people will just say, wait a minute. === Rare Circumstances vs. Systemic Problems (02:48) === [00:58:19] Yeah, that looks really bad. [00:58:21] But here's five other circumstances where the same thing happened to a white person and no one knows their names. [00:58:26] No one knows. [00:58:27] We all know Trayvon Martin's name, but we don't know lots of other people who the same types of things have happened and sometimes much more unjustifiable circumstances because we have this weird media generation machine that takes certain cases and highlights them over others. [00:58:44] Like, why on earth do we know George Floyd's name so well, but not the police officer who was at one of the protests and was just murdered in the street for no reason? [00:58:54] There's a dude walking in Brooklyn just yesterday or two days ago who was walking his eight-year-old daughter across the street hand in hand, and a guy pulled up a car next to him and shot him dead while they were holding hands. [00:59:06] And you see the kid run away. [00:59:07] Why don't we know that person's name? [00:59:09] Like, these are just Black Lives Matter should be a copyrighted organization. [00:59:14] It should be a trademarked organization because that's what it is. [00:59:18] It's basically a corporation. [00:59:19] There are people who support it who are not like that. [00:59:22] But Black Lives Matter is a Marxist organization that is out for things other than justice for black lives. [00:59:29] Period. [00:59:30] Triple 8-727-BECK. [00:59:33] More in 60 seconds.

[01:00:49] station id 888-727-BECK It's Pat and Stuford-Glenn today. === Police Shootings: The Unquestioned Data (15:59) === [01:01:07] You know, if you look at the overall numbers of police shootings in the last three years, 2017, 18, 19, and this year so far, you see that every single year, more whites are killed by police overall. [01:01:24] Just whether they're armed or whether it was justified or whatever the case may be, it was 457 whites in 2017 to 223 blacks, 179 Hispanics, and 44 other, 84 unknown. [01:01:41] So every year, more whites are killed. [01:01:45] But again, those aren't even mentioned. [01:01:49] That would be absolutely shocking to at least half the country. [01:01:53] I think so too. [01:01:54] I mean, there was someone who did, you know, those like those, you go to campus and you ask random college students, you know, questions and they look like idiots when they get them wrong. [01:02:02] That genre, which I like. [01:02:03] I mean, I'm a fan of it. [01:02:05] I can admit it. [01:02:05] I can admit liking to, every once in a while, see a millennial or someone younger fall on their face. [01:02:10] It's fun. [01:02:11] Someone, one of these people who do these videos did one of those where they went and they asked, you know, how many people were black and unarmed or killed by cops every year. [01:02:21] And they were guessing in the thousands, tens of thousands? [01:02:25] Tens of thousands. [01:02:26] Tens of thousands. [01:02:27] And like, wow. [01:02:29] Why wouldn't you, if it's justifiable to go protest this in the middle of a pandemic that has killed 133,000 people so far in this country, how would it possibly be only nine people? [01:02:42] I can understand them not believing them. [01:02:44] I can understand them guessing tens of thousands. [01:02:46] If you just judge by the context of the media coverage, you'd think, yeah, of course. [01:02:51] If it's justifiable to risk a pandemic outbreak, it must be hundreds of thousands of people. [01:02:57] And it's not. [01:02:58] In fact, you know, the idea that more white people get killed than black people would be shocking. [01:03:03] In fact, in Minnesota, it's four to one in Minnesota where George Floyd was killed. [01:03:07] A four to one ratio white people killed over black people by part because there's a lot more white people than black people. [01:03:14] But that's not the tone of the clever. [01:03:16] You can talk about rates all you want. [01:03:18] However, when you're trying to claim genocide, you don't need to use the argument for a rate. [01:03:24] Like they were never like, well, you know, the Nazis are, yes, they're killing more white people and Aryans than they are Jews, but the rate is higher for Jews. [01:03:33] You didn't need to make that argument. [01:03:34] This is the Glenn Beck program. [01:03:38] You know, there are a lot of home security systems out there to choose from. [01:03:41] Some of them pretty darn good. [01:03:42] I mean, you know, you have to have a degree in electrical engineering to understand and install them. [01:03:46] And you need to make an electrical engineer's salary to be able to afford them. [01:03:49] But once you've got that on your side, you're golden. [01:03:51] Don't worry about it. [01:03:53] Or you could go with SimplySafe and get something that not only is easy to put together and operate, but which will also give you state-of-the-art, high-tech home protection for 50 cents a day.

[01:04:51] Check out my show, Pat Gray Unleashed, every weekday, 7 to 9 Eastern or anywhere you get your podcasts. [01:04:58] It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program. [01:05:10] Stu was just talking about this video where a young woman asks other young people about the statistics of how many unarmed black people were killed by police last year. [01:05:25] And so the guesses are wide-ranging, I would say. [01:05:31] But the answer, of course, well, they get into the answer. [01:05:35] I think we've said it enough times. [01:05:36] It was actually nine unarmed black. [01:05:40] Was it 18 for whites? [01:05:41] Was it 18 unarmed whites last year? [01:05:43] Something to that. [01:05:44] I think it was about double. [01:05:46] But here were some of the guesses. [01:05:48] So, of course, police brutality has been a very big subject lately. [01:05:53] How many unarmed black men do you think were killed by police over the past year? [01:05:58] Over the past year. [01:06:03] I think blacks get killed by the police unarmed way more than white people. [01:06:07] But have you seen any numbers or statistics? [01:06:10] Like, do you know if it's a couple hundred or a couple thousand by chance? [01:06:13] I don't know the exact statistics offhand. [01:06:17] Thousands, thousands. [01:06:19] Right now, I believe I saw a post that said that right now, 493 have been killed just this year. [01:06:26] I can't put a number on that because I genuinely do not know. [01:06:29] I honestly don't know the answer. [01:06:32] The number of people who were killed. [01:06:35] And, you know, as you're out there protesting, shouldn't you know something like that? [01:06:39] Shouldn't you have done a little research on this and know what you're talking about, know what you're protesting? [01:06:43] Yeah, the order of events is important. [01:06:44] Learn, then protest. [01:06:47] Exactly. [01:06:48] Understand the issue you're talking about, then go march. [01:06:50] That would be nice. [01:06:51] Yeah. [01:06:52] That would make a lot of sense. [01:06:55] A thousand. [01:06:56] A thousand. [01:06:57] At least. [01:06:57] At least. [01:06:58] More members of the black community compared to members of the white community as a whole. [01:07:05] I love this one because he realizes he doesn't understand. [01:07:08] He doesn't know the number. [01:07:10] And then he decides to back off to something he's sure is true. [01:07:14] Right. [01:07:15] More members of the black community than the white community, for sure. [01:07:18] Which is not true. [01:07:18] Which is not true. [01:07:19] And he realizes that about halfway through his sentence, too. [01:07:23] Because he's not sure of that. [01:07:24] He doesn't have any stats on any of it, but he tries to fake his way through it. [01:07:29] In general, I think that that might not be true. [01:07:32] Yeah, it isn't. [01:07:33] Where in how big of a region? [01:07:36] Just in all of America. [01:07:37] Yeah, in America. [01:07:38] Wow. [01:07:39] That would be so hard for me to say. [01:07:41] Trillions. [01:07:42] It would be hard for me to even guess that. [01:07:43] I would imagine, you know, probably in the dozens of thousands, at least. [01:07:47] In the dozens of thousands, at least. [01:07:49] Could be hundreds of thousands. [01:07:50] It could be millions. [01:07:52] It could be billions or trillions like Stu just guessed, trillions. [01:07:57] Is it? [01:07:57] I don't know. [01:07:58] Maybe. [01:07:58] Is it quadrillions? [01:07:59] I know it's at least trillions, but it could be quadrillions. [01:08:02] Is it a bajillion? [01:08:03] I don't know. [01:08:04] I don't know. [01:08:04] Maybe. [01:08:04] Maybe. [01:08:05] What am I? [01:08:07] What am I? [01:08:08] I forget what I'm doing there. [01:08:09] It's the gun guy. [01:08:12] What was it? [01:08:13] He was. [01:08:14] What am I? [01:08:16] That's sad that we've forgotten so quickly only 10 years after that event. [01:08:21] Anyway, there were more guesses. [01:08:23] Thousands probably. [01:08:25] Thousands. [01:08:26] If you're talking about all-America, yeah, monthly, probably thousands. [01:08:30] Monthly. [01:08:31] I wish I knew that number, but way too many than it should. [01:08:34] So do you think it's like a couple hundred, couple thousand? [01:08:37] Like, do you think you can get a ballpark at all based off of like media reports, videos you've seen? [01:08:43] I would say in the hundreds, near thousands. [01:08:48] I'm not sure. [01:08:48] Do you know? [01:08:49] So I was actually reading a statistic in the Wall Street Journal because I was asking people this question and I really wasn't sure either. [01:08:54] And the Wall Street Journal said that last year, nine unarmed black men were killed by police. [01:09:01] You know, I think. [01:09:03] Wait, before we get to his answer, by the way, in the same sentence, it was nine unarmed black people, 19 unarmed white people. [01:09:11] So that's the stat from last year. [01:09:14] That's tough to hear. [01:09:15] And when people see that, it just perpetuates their own bias. [01:09:19] Oh, sure. [01:09:21] Yeah. [01:09:22] I'm sorry. [01:09:22] It's the truth. [01:09:24] It's reality. [01:09:25] It is a fact. [01:09:26] It doesn't perpetuate anybody's bias. [01:09:29] It just informs you as to what reality is. [01:09:33] It's not perpetuating a bias. [01:09:35] No. [01:09:36] And that's a huge thing because I love it. [01:09:40] He's obviously showing his own bias by immediately saying, dismissing the actual fact of the matter. [01:09:45] Only nine people were killed. [01:09:47] Right. [01:09:47] And saying, well, all that does is perpetuate bias. [01:09:50] But it's not just people, random people in colleges that do this. [01:09:53] There is a story in the Washington Post that came out this weekend about the Washington Redskins. [01:09:58] And, you know, the whole Redskins name controversy has been going on for many years. [01:10:02] And one of the biggest talking points, and the reason it's kind of gone away for years and years, was the fact that multiple polls showed that 90% of Native Americans were not bothered by the name. [01:10:16] This has happened over and over and over again. [01:10:18] Over and over and over again for multiple pollsters, multiple years. [01:10:23] It's sort of one of those things that shuts down the debate. [01:10:25] All right, why are we pissed off about it if 90% when they're not? [01:10:29] And so there was A story in the Washington Post, which basically came out and apologized for their own poll, where they said, hey, you know, we're sorry to shut down debate over this issue because our poll was basically responsible for no one caring about this anymore. [01:10:51] And it's like, wait a minute, are you a news organization? [01:10:55] Why are you apologizing for reporting accurately the group you say should be offended that isn't? [01:11:01] Again, we're always doing this where we say, oh, as white people, we can tell you, Native American, African American, what you should be offended by. [01:11:12] And if you're not appropriately offended the way you should be, we'll just take the thing off the market. [01:11:18] There will be no more Washington Redskins. [01:11:20] There will be no more Angemima. [01:11:22] We'll just get rid of it. [01:11:23] So therefore, you can't be lured into this sense of not being offended over this thing you're not offended by. [01:11:28] I'm actually offended that you keep leaving off that list. [01:11:31] You mentioned Aunt Jemima. [01:11:33] Where's Uncle Ben? [01:11:35] Why have you chosen a black man who's smiling on the label? [01:11:41] What a stereotype. [01:11:43] That means that they think black people smile all the time. [01:11:48] I know. [01:11:49] I don't understand the Uncle Ben thing. [01:11:50] I really don't get it. [01:11:51] Antemima. [01:11:52] I mean, there was a time where Angelima was used in a way that was not familiar with the people. [01:11:56] Yeah, a long time ago. [01:11:58] A long time ago. [01:11:58] And Aunt Jemima, you know, we brought this up. [01:12:01] African Americans buy Ant Jemima at like four times the rate of any other group. [01:12:06] So they're apparently not offended by the label. [01:12:08] Right. [01:12:08] Because they bring it into their home on a regular basis. [01:12:10] And how could you think about this for a second? [01:12:12] I'm trying to think of what the right product is. [01:12:14] You know, if you were an African American and you go to buy a product, there's lots of products with white smiling faces on them. [01:12:22] Here's one that has a black smiling face on it. [01:12:24] A motherly figure who's taking care of breakfast for you because she makes very freaking pancakes. [01:12:31] Exactly. [01:12:31] Syrup and pancakes. [01:12:32] Of course you'd be drawn to that product as an African American because you don't see this like some racist thing. [01:12:37] You see it as like, you know, hey, here's someone who's a friendly face that's familiar. [01:12:41] And it seems to have been targeted specifically at African Americans who buy it at gigantic rates. [01:12:47] Listen to this quote from Washington Post. [01:12:48] This is the headline of the story I'm talking about. [01:12:51] A survey explores how Native Americans feel about the name Washington Redskins. [01:12:55] No, it's not that survey. [01:12:57] This one is new. [01:13:00] Like, what? [01:13:00] It's your survey. [01:13:03] Why are you degrading your own work? [01:13:05] Think about this. [01:13:06] The Washington Post, in a time where media organizations are struggling, came up with a poll in 2016 that totally changed a debate to the factual arrangement in which minorities' opinions were respected and they're apologizing for it. [01:13:21] They go on to say the Post poll has been blamed for killing the debate. [01:13:25] The truth is our collective response did. [01:13:28] And that never should have happened. [01:13:30] The name is a dictionary-defined slur, whether or not 10% of Native Americans or 50% of your coworkers or your favorite aunt acknowledge it. [01:13:40] Like, you're totally dismissing the opinion of the group you say is offended as if they don't matter at all. [01:13:49] And that is like excusable in this circumstance. [01:13:53] And by the way, they decided they got a new poll. [01:13:56] This one said only 70% of Native Americans didn't care about it. [01:13:59] So now they're constant beating them over the head for multiple decades. [01:14:03] What do you want to bet? [01:14:04] It was a push-poll where they were. [01:14:06] Yeah. [01:14:06] Totally was. [01:14:07] So they gave them 40 emotions because they wanted to get, okay, maybe that top line number isn't great. [01:14:14] But if we can get kind of fine, like some of them are offended, we can highlight that part. [01:14:18] This is what the, this is, they had to put this in their own article. [01:14:22] Quote, the reasons they gave for feeling that way is that they weren't offended. [01:14:29] It's just a name. [01:14:30] It honors or represents their heritage and people are overly sensitive. [01:14:34] That's what the Native Americans said. [01:14:35] The survey presented respondents. [01:14:38] They don't know any better than we've got to help them be offended. [01:14:42] We've got to help them. [01:14:43] The survey presented respondents with more than 40 emotions and asked them to indicate whether each represented how they felt about the team's name. [01:14:50] The word picked most was proud. [01:14:56] They're trying so hard to tell Native Americans they should hate this name. [01:15:02] And like the story of the logo is amazing. [01:15:06] Like it was, it used to just be an R. [01:15:09] That was the logo for the Redskins. [01:15:11] And a Native American came in and they used a real Native American as a model because the Native Americans felt like it shouldn't, if it's Redskins, it shouldn't just be an R. You should have us represented. [01:15:20] So they came up with this great logo that was designed by Native Americans using a real Native American model. [01:15:28] And that's offensive. [01:15:29] They're going to get rid of the logo now, supposedly. [01:15:31] It's not 100% confirmed, but ESPN is reporting that the name is going to change. [01:15:36] Logo's still up in the air. [01:15:38] Now, we don't know. [01:15:39] The name is going to change. [01:15:40] Did you see their statement? [01:15:41] I mean, their statement was like, uh-huh. [01:15:43] I mean, Dan Snyder, is he caving in now? [01:15:46] That's... [01:15:46] That's what they believe. [01:15:48] So the statement came out from the Redskins, which was like, in this time, we feel we need to look at the name and study whether it's okay for people. [01:15:59] Like, it was one of those, you know, and it certainly read as if they were going to overturn it. [01:16:03] Yeah. [01:16:04] The reporting afterward has said they are going to do it within the next couple of months. [01:16:08] They think before the 2020 season. [01:16:10] They will change the name of the Redskins before the 2020 season. [01:16:14] Reporting's been wrong before, but that is the current state of the reporting. [01:16:18] So we'll see. [01:16:19] He has been so, Daniel Snyder, the owner, has been so steadfast on that. [01:16:24] He said we'll never change it. [01:16:25] Pretty amazing how much he stood up to this nonsense. [01:16:28] As an Eagles fan, it's the only reason I like the Redskins. [01:16:30] It's the only thing I've ever done that I've actually liked. [01:16:33] And again, I don't have any affinity for the Redskins' name. [01:16:36] It's just scolding for no reason when they have the freedom on their side. [01:16:42] It started, obviously, as a piece of essentially propaganda to honor the Washington, to honor the Native Americans. [01:16:53] They were honoring the coach at the time, several players at the time. [01:16:56] You go back to the history of the word. [01:16:57] It was a Native American term used to describe themselves. [01:17:01] This is unquestioned in history. [01:17:04] Even people who oppose it and actually know the effects don't question that. === The History of a Controversial Word (09:15) === [01:17:07] They say that at some point, some people use it in a derogatory way, although there's much more evidence that it was not used that way. [01:17:15] It's not that it's never been used that way. [01:17:17] But again, I ask the audience and I ask you, Pat, have you ever, honestly, in your entire life, ever heard one person use that term in a derogatory way towards Native Americans? [01:17:28] No. [01:17:29] Ever. [01:17:29] No. [01:17:30] I have literally never heard it. [01:17:32] The only time I've ever heard it is there's one quote from a Minnesota newspaper in 1863 that every one of these stories highlights, or they did use it in a derogatory way, but of course, was not around in 1863, did not get that. [01:17:46] But we know that it started as a good term. [01:17:48] We know that when the team named it, it was a good term. [01:17:51] It was meant to honor Native Americans. [01:17:53] But 160 years ago, somebody did use it in a derogatory way. [01:17:57] And it's like amazing. [01:17:58] Fundamentally, Pat. [01:17:59] Wow. [01:17:59] When you're naming your team, you don't name it after something you hate. [01:18:04] Right? [01:18:04] You name it after something you want to root for and honor. [01:18:07] You know, I wouldn't name my team the North Texas avocados because avocados are evil. [01:18:13] I hate them. [01:18:14] So I wouldn't name my team after that. [01:18:15] I'd name it the cheesy fries because I like cheesy fries. [01:18:20] That makes sense. [01:18:21] It's tough, but doesn't sound menacing, but okay. [01:18:24] It doesn't have to be menacing. [01:18:26] It doesn't have to be. [01:18:27] I mean, the New Orleans Pelicans don't seem all that menace. [01:18:31] No, it doesn't. [01:18:31] No, it really doesn't. [01:18:33] 888 727 B E C All right. [01:18:41] I like having options. [01:18:42] I know most people do. [01:18:44] You know, you've got Ford or Chevy, Denim or Cotton, Vanilla or Chocolate. [01:18:47] I mean, you could always just have both when it comes to vanilla and chocolate. [01:18:51] Or cheesy fries or avocados. [01:18:53] That one, go with the cheesy fries. [01:18:56] If you're like me, you probably like having options, which is what makes Patriot Mobile's latest promotional deal so great.

[01:20:24] It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program, 888-727-BECK. [01:20:30] Coming up, we've got to tell you about the very latest from Colin Kaepernick. [01:20:36] There's also something, speaking of NFL quarterbacks, Patrick Mahomes had a pretty good day yesterday. [01:20:43] Oh, my God. [01:20:44] Where he signed a fairly significant contract. [01:20:47] Well, a bit of an extension of a current one. [01:20:49] Yeah. [01:20:49] He's got a two-year deal right now, and they extended it 10 more years. [01:20:52] So 12 years. [01:20:53] 12 years, $477 million. [01:20:56] And it could go up to $503 million. [01:20:58] $503. [01:20:59] That's half a billion dollars. [01:21:01] Now, I think the highest ever for a quarterback was like, what, $150, $160, something like that? [01:21:07] And it's like three times as big as any other quarterback's contract in the USB. [01:21:10] His previous biggest sports contract was Mike Trout, I think, with the Angels, which was $425 or $430 over 10 years. [01:21:18] It's a little more common in baseball. [01:21:19] I mean, nobody gets that kind of contract. [01:21:21] And that was fully guaranteed, completely. [01:21:23] He's got $430 million definitely coming to him. [01:21:26] Trout. [01:21:27] Trout. [01:21:27] Yes. [01:21:29] the case for Mahomes but still I think 140 is fully guaranteed which is pretty that's not bad But again, that's more than like any other quarterback ever for their entire time. [01:21:39] He's guaranteed no matter what happens now. [01:21:42] He could break a leg and never play again, like Theisman, which I certainly don't wish on anybody. [01:21:48] But he'd make $140 million. [01:21:50] And by the way, he's 23 years old. [01:21:52] Jesus. [01:21:54] $477 million coming to him. [01:21:57] He's 23. [01:21:58] Incredible. [01:21:59] Incredible. [01:22:04] Sponsor is American Financing. [01:22:06] Here's an uncomfortable question for you. [01:22:08] How many times a day would you say that you pick up your phone and scroll through Facebook for at least 10 solid minutes? [01:22:14] I know Pat probably would be pretty low on that. [01:22:16] My wife, 5,000 times a day is the correct answer for that. [01:22:20] If you're being honest, probably not zero. [01:22:22] It's probably several. [01:22:23] And that's that's look, you can do what you need to do, especially if you're streaming the blaze while you're doing it. [01:22:28] But it's an important thing to illustrate because you have the time to call American Financing and save some cash. [01:22:34] If you're paying 4% or more on your mortgage, which used to be a really low rate, it's not anymore, you're overpaying. [01:22:40] How about ganging in the credit card debt that you don't like or think about and trying to get that together? [01:22:46] What are they charging you on that? [01:22:47] It's probably in the double digits. [01:22:48] Plain and simple, if you're a homeowner, just about the best thing you can do is refinancing your mortgage right now. [01:22:53] And people at American Financing can walk you through what that might look like. [01:22:57] They're not in it for the bank. [01:22:58] They're in it for you. [01:22:59] And they're going to get you the kind of mortgage deal that can save you hundreds of dollars a month or maybe over a thousand. [01:23:05] Call them today. [01:23:05] I know when I wanted to renegotiate my mortgage, get mine refinanced. [01:23:10] That's who I called American Financing, 800-906-2440. [01:23:14] 800-906-2440. [01:23:16] Or go to AmericanFinancing.net. [01:23:19] That's AmericanFinancing.net. [01:23:22] We have some new ridiculousness from Colin Kaepernick coming up here in just a moment. [01:23:27] He sure hates America for a guy who's been rewarded by it over and over again. [01:23:31] starts here in a second we're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment [01:23:58] This is the Glenn Beck Program. [01:24:04] With Pat and Stu Glenz, sick today. [01:24:07] Triple 8, 727BECK. [01:24:11] A few minutes ago, Stu said something about Colin Kaepernick hating America. [01:24:15] It's not about that. [01:24:17] Stu, it's not about it. [01:24:18] It's not? [01:24:18] No, it's not about the flag. [01:24:19] It's not about his hatred for America. [01:24:21] It's not about the military. [01:24:24] It's only about police brutality. [01:24:28] That's the only thing it's about. [01:24:29] Really? [01:24:30] That's it. [01:24:31] That's it. [01:24:32] Because I know LeBron James said that we didn't understand what it was about when we said it was about the country. [01:24:36] Right. [01:24:37] Or the flag. [01:24:38] And it's not. [01:24:39] It's, in fact. [01:24:42] I saw, was it LeBron James? [01:24:44] I don't know, one of his defenders a week or two ago. [01:24:47] Not only said, was it not about the flag or the country, but it was actually a tribute to the military, what he was doing. [01:24:55] Oh, really? [01:24:57] So not only is it not a bad thing, it's a really good thing that he's doing. [01:25:01] So interesting. [01:25:02] Anyway, we'll get into that coming up in 60 seconds. [01:25:06] This is the Glenn Beck Program. [01:25:11] If you walk into your bathroom right now, how much of your pile of stuff is dedicated to shaving? [01:25:16] A whole industry sprung up around the concept that you need to have every product in the book to get a good shave. [01:25:22] razors with like 934 blades, soaps, gels, foams. [01:25:26] There's probably somebody out there where they barely can get into your bathroom because of all the products that are stacked up. [01:25:33] You can get rid of all that stuff and get back to the basics with Shave Secret. [01:25:36] Shave Secret is an oil, not a foam, and it helps reduce or even eliminate all types of shaving irritations for men and women, like ingrown hairs, shave bumps, redneck, bikini bumps, nicks, and cuts. [01:25:49] Shaving is an important part of our lives, both for men and women and for men who want to be women, maybe especially for them. [01:25:55] Who knows? [01:25:56] But there's no need to muddy the waters of shaving. [01:25:59] You know, like, look, who knows? [01:26:02] If you have shaving mud, if that's something that you have to, you can get rid of that for Shave Secret. [01:26:06] Chave Secret is available right now regionally at HEB, Wegmans, and Amazon, or you can go to shavesecret.com and use the code Beck to let everybody know that we sent you.

[01:26:20] ShaveSecret.com, code BECK. === Beyond the National Anthem (13:02) === [01:26:23] Just to prove how right LeBron James and the rest are, the defenders of Colin Kaepernick. [01:26:40] This is not about the flag. [01:26:43] Listen to what Colin Kaepernick has said in his own words. [01:26:47] I'm going to continue to stand with the people that are being oppressed. [01:26:50] When there's significant change and I feel like that flag represents what it's supposed to represent, I'll stand. [01:26:56] I see. [01:26:57] 49ers dual threat quarterback with the rocket arm and lightning quick feet staying seated during the national anthem at Friday's preseason game, telling the NFL network, I'm not going to stand up and show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color. [01:27:15] So that's not about, it's clearly not about the flag. [01:27:17] No. [01:27:19] It's only said it multiple times that it is about the flag. [01:27:22] It is a nuanced type of oppression that he suffers from. [01:27:27] Where he makes $20 million from a shoe company and then millions of dollars from the NFL. [01:27:32] Well, yeah, when he signed a seven-year, $126 million contract, he then went out and finished 38th of 39 qualifying quarterbacks. [01:27:40] Now, it's interesting because... [01:27:42] That's good, right? [01:27:42] That's good. [01:27:43] He wasn't dead last. [01:27:44] He wasn't dead last. [01:27:45] Now, the guy who was dead last, he did not protest the flag, although he's never played another NFL game either. [01:27:53] You know who else actually- Was that Blaine Gabbard? [01:27:55] No, it was Mettenberger, Zach Mettenberger. [01:27:58] Oh, wow. [01:27:59] And there's one guy who finished four slots ahead of Colin Kaepernick, who hasn't played a lot either. [01:28:06] He was known as a massive bust in every way possible. [01:28:09] Johnny Manzel finished significantly ahead of Colin Kaepernick. [01:28:14] Also, all the calls for him to get an NFL job. [01:28:17] Yeah. [01:28:17] Look at all the calls. [01:28:18] Not much. [01:28:19] Not much. [01:28:19] Blaine Gabbert, as you point out, was also known as a bust quarterback, outplayed Colin Kaepernick in every facet of the game. [01:28:26] He replaced him as a starter, I believe. [01:28:28] Before Colin Kaepernick took a knee. [01:28:30] Yeah. [01:28:30] He replaced. [01:28:31] So the clip that you just heard of him saying, oh, you know, this is about the country and the flag that's been bad to people of color. [01:28:39] That happened after he was benched for Blaine Gabbert. [01:28:41] He then lost his job again to Blaine Gabbert. [01:28:44] And then he lost it again to Blaine Gabbert. [01:28:46] Oh, boy. [01:28:47] And he also did set a record, I will say. [01:28:51] People talk about he's had some good moments. [01:28:53] It's true. [01:28:53] He set some records. [01:28:54] He actually set the record, the only quarterback in NFL history to get sacked more times in a game than he threw four yards, which is pretty good. [01:29:05] He gets really good. [01:29:06] He did four yards and got sacked five times. [01:29:09] So that's pretty good. [01:29:10] But he threw for four yards. [01:29:11] Four full yards in the game, which is pretty good if you think about it, because it's certainly better than three yards. [01:29:18] It is. [01:29:19] By one. [01:29:20] By one yard, it's better than three yards. [01:29:24] He was sacked five times in the game. [01:29:26] I don't think I've heard that stuff. [01:29:27] He's my favorite story. [01:29:28] That's a great story. [01:29:29] I think you can legitimately say that this game was the worst game ever played by an NFL quarterback. [01:29:38] I think that is, I know it's saying a lot, and you can go through. [01:29:42] If you're a Buffalo fan, you may have a couple of examples you want to compare with this. [01:29:47] But he, here's what. [01:29:51] Okay, here you go. [01:29:54] And look, the weather was a little nasty. [01:29:56] By the time the Niners pulled Kaepernick out of the game again for Blaine Gabbert, Kaepernick was one of five for four yards. [01:30:05] He was sacked five times for 25 yards, leaving the Niners with negative 21 net passing yards. [01:30:14] Wow. [01:30:16] Wow. [01:30:16] This is the third quarter, by the way. [01:30:18] They were down 24 to 6 at the time. [01:30:21] So that is amazing. [01:30:23] In the process, Kaepernick became the first quarterback in NFL history to be sacked five times and throw for fewer than five yards in a game, according to ESPN stats and information. [01:30:33] That's impressive. [01:30:34] Yeah. [01:30:34] Nicely done. [01:30:35] Thank you. [01:30:36] Then in his 4th of July message, you know, we find out that this is not about the country. [01:30:43] Here's what he said. [01:30:45] He claimed the national holiday marking our independence from Britain is a celebration of white supremacy. [01:30:53] He claimed black people have been dehumanized, brutalized, criminalized, and terrorized by America for centuries and are expected to join your commemoration of independence while you enslaved our ancestors. [01:31:08] We reject your celebration of white supremacy and look forward to liberation for all. [01:31:13] It's not about the country, Stu. [01:31:15] It's not about the flag. [01:31:16] It's about police brutality. [01:31:19] Right. [01:31:20] Except that it's not. [01:31:21] Except it's not. [01:31:22] And we've said that a million times. [01:31:24] Don't tell me that we don't know what we're talking about or we haven't looked into it. [01:31:29] We're the ones who have looked into it. [01:31:31] And that's why we know what it's about. [01:31:33] I just wish the LeBron Jameses of the world would look into it. [01:31:37] James, who came out when Colin Kaepernick was just talking about the kneeling and everything. [01:31:44] I think it was when Drew Brees recently came out and Breeze said, you know, I'm not going to dishonor the flag. [01:31:50] That's not what this is about. [01:31:51] And LeBron James like, I can't believe you still think it's about the flag of the country. [01:31:56] It's the exact opposite of that. [01:31:58] It's like, well, he keeps saying it's a protest against the white supremacy of the nation. [01:32:03] Yeah. [01:32:03] Our independence. [01:32:05] Right. [01:32:05] Which is weird because we got our independence from other white people. [01:32:08] And that he's not going to celebrate it. [01:32:11] No, he's not going to celebrate it. [01:32:12] So that goes beyond the national anthem and your little kneeling thing. [01:32:17] Yeah, it is. [01:32:17] And like, you know, Drew Breeze got just absolutely hammered for those comments. [01:32:22] Yes. [01:32:22] To the point that not only did he apologize, his wife apologized. [01:32:25] I believe his children, his dog apologized at one point. [01:32:28] His ancestors. [01:32:28] Yes, his ancestors. [01:32:29] Came back from the grave and they apologized. [01:32:31] Because everyone who's ever not only named Breeze, but fell to Breeze, they had to apologize. [01:32:38] This is what, think about this. [01:32:40] If you actually were protesting police brutality and not the flag or the country, one easy way to do that is to do your protest at any other time in your life other than during the national anthem, including a place that would be even higher profile. [01:32:58] I mean, we know that the NFL broadcasts don't typically carry the national anthem. [01:33:02] The only time they do is to find out if Colin Kaepernick was kneeling. [01:33:05] So they don't normally cover that on the TV broadcast. [01:33:08] You could go out before the kickoff when everyone is there and take a knee on the field and everyone would be like, wow, they're doing it right then. [01:33:17] The first time you come out for the first play and you have the play set in your brain already. [01:33:22] You don't need to huddle up. [01:33:23] You already know where the play is. [01:33:24] It's your first set of downs. [01:33:26] Go out there and take a knee. [01:33:27] Now, it would be difficult for him to go out on the field and take a knee because he was benched so often. [01:33:30] But in theory, he could have done it then. [01:33:33] But this is what Drew Breeze said. [01:33:34] If it was about the flag, would this not be the perfect quote? [01:33:37] This is what he said back in 2016. [01:33:40] As a way to show respect to all, our Saints team will kneel in solidarity prior to the national anthem and stand together during the anthem. [01:33:49] That would be a way to actually make it about police brutality. [01:33:53] Instead, Breeze is not woke enough. [01:33:56] And Colin Kaepernick, who is literally out in front of the nation saying they are all a bunch of white supremacists. [01:34:02] And he is getting embraced by, of course, Nike, which is nothing at this point other than a woke organization. [01:34:09] Do they even make shoes anymore? [01:34:10] I don't know. [01:34:11] But also note Disney. [01:34:13] Yeah. [01:34:14] In back-to-back posts, Colin Kaepernick is calling the nation a bunch of white supremacists and signing with Disney. [01:34:20] Disney. [01:34:22] Yeah. [01:34:23] And this Disney ESPN documentary is being done by Jamil Hill. [01:34:29] Oh, can you imagine how obnoxious it's going to be? [01:34:33] I didn't know that. [01:34:33] Awful. [01:34:34] Yeah. [01:34:34] Oh, it's going to be so bad. [01:34:36] I mean, think about Jamil Hill is a great one, too, where she's on Sports Center. [01:34:40] And all she did was talk, she didn't want to talk about sports. [01:34:42] She just wanted to talk about racism. [01:34:43] Right. [01:34:44] So they took her off of Sports Center. [01:34:45] They're like, how about this? [01:34:46] We'll create a giant new company within our company called the Undefeated. [01:34:53] And we will basically just make it a website specifically designed to tell you there's racism in sports. [01:35:00] It's the only thing this website does. [01:35:02] So now they have all these reporters on there just as a function just to sit there and tell you how racist sports are. [01:35:09] She was so annoying, they fired her from there. [01:35:12] And then she had to go to the, she's now, I think, at the Atlantic, maybe? [01:35:15] I don't even know. [01:35:16] She is at the Atlantic. [01:35:18] So now she's back, though, I guess, at ESPN too, which is an incredible, an incredible thing. [01:35:22] Wow. [01:35:23] I mean, it's so over the top. [01:35:27] It's like if you're constantly looking, you know, this happened with LeBron James again when he was looking for racism with Bubba Wallace, and he tweeted like an idiot and fell flat on his face because he didn't wait for any of the facts to come out and just assumed it was racism. [01:35:41] And it's not just saying like, this is really bad what happened to Bubba Wallace. [01:35:44] A lot of people said that, right? [01:35:45] Because they didn't know and it seemed like that was the truth at the time. [01:35:48] It was, you are a hater if you criticize this in any way or question it in any way. [01:35:53] You know, it's always that attitude of, I know I'm right. [01:35:56] So therefore, you know, bend on the knee to my views. [01:36:00] And look, I know I'm not doing that. [01:36:03] And I know you're not doing that. [01:36:05] And I know Glenn's not doing that. [01:36:06] And this is, it's a moment where it shows how important conservative media really is. [01:36:12] Because it's one of the only places on earth, the only jobs on earth where people are paid because they're willing to take stands that are against the grain. [01:36:23] Like we are paid. [01:36:24] I know coming in here when I want to criticize Colin Kaepernick, there's, I mean, you know, there's no chance of me getting fired for it because people know, hey, that's your job to go out there and say something that is that is against the grain if you believe it's true. [01:36:38] You know, there's times that I'm, you know, I agree with the common analysis and sometimes you don't. [01:36:45] But that's what we get paid for to not care. [01:36:48] We get paid to not care about the ramifications, to come in and be honest with you whether we think they're going to be ramifications or not. [01:36:56] And I'd like to think that, you know what, if I was in the world, if I was an executive at Nike, I'd be super brave and take those stands anyway. [01:37:03] I can tell you it would be difficult. [01:37:04] I'm glad I'm in this industry because that is what we get paid for, to sit here and tell you the truth, whether, you know, damn the consequences. [01:37:11] And look how this guy is being rewarded for his stand against the flag, against the country. [01:37:19] He's getting this documentary, this Disney ESPN documentary. [01:37:24] He just announced a scripted series based on his life at Netflix. [01:37:32] He reportedly signed a $1 million book deal with Penguin Random House. [01:37:40] No book has come from that yet. [01:37:44] Good luck trying to get it out of him, by the way. [01:37:46] We'll see about it. [01:37:47] Let's see what you get accused of if you ask him for the book. [01:37:49] He got $20 million from Nike, reportedly. [01:37:53] He got $20, maybe up to $20 million from the NFL because of the so-called collusion thing. [01:38:00] Yeah. [01:38:01] Why won't he tell you how much he's making from Nike, by the way? [01:38:04] Why don't we know that number? [01:38:06] Why not? [01:38:06] Might be more than $20 million. [01:38:07] It might be 50 or 100 million. [01:38:09] I don't know. [01:38:10] It's hard to claim oppression when you got that much money. [01:38:12] It is. [01:38:12] And, you know, look, that's been the situation. [01:38:14] And look, Colin Kaepernick has two lines of business, throwing interceptions and extortion. [01:38:19] Those are his two lines of business. [01:38:20] He's given up the interception one because he knows if he goes back in place, he's going to be terrible because he was terrible throughout his career. [01:38:26] He's good on, he had one iffy good year. [01:38:30] Plus, he'll take a greening on his body. [01:38:32] I don't think he wants to anymore. [01:38:34] Oh, he has no interest. [01:38:35] I don't think he does. [01:38:36] Gifted him a tryout in front of all these teams. [01:38:39] And he passed it up. [01:38:40] And he passed it up. [01:38:40] It was something that had never been offered to any player in history. [01:38:44] And he passed it up. [01:38:45] Why? [01:38:46] Because he has no interest in playing the sport. [01:38:49] He's like a, he reminds me of like, I'm trying to think of who you'd put in this category. [01:38:55] I would say it was like Donald Trump in like 2000 when he kept saying he was going to run for president and he didn't seem to really have any real, no one really believed he wanted to run for president. [01:39:05] It was more of a publicity thing. [01:39:07] Now, eventually that turned into a real run, obviously. [01:39:09] But for a long time, that was the thing. [01:39:10] The same thing with Bloomberg for a long time. [01:39:13] He was never really going to run. [01:39:14] and then eventually he did jump in. [01:39:16] Kaepernick is like... [01:39:17] He's not going to jump in. [01:39:18] You lose all relevance if you say you don't want to play anymore. [01:39:21] So he has to keep this tension alive between like, oh, gosh, these guys are still keeping me out. === Trump's Publicity Stunts and Relevance (14:53) === [01:39:26] Do you believe this? [01:39:26] Even Stephen A. Smith, who was a huge supporter at the beginning, when he passed up that tryout, said, okay, come on, the guy doesn't want to play anymore. [01:39:35] Stop messing around here. [01:39:36] Of course not. [01:39:37] Triple 8727, B-E-C-K. [01:39:40] More patents, Stu for Glenn coming up in a minute.

[01:41:13] 10 seconds station id hey there it's a little bit of common sense uh Nobody wants to talk about the fact that the protests had anything to do with the new spike in coronavirus. [01:41:37] Nobody wants to mention that at all. [01:41:39] Except for the Miami-Dade County mayor. [01:41:43] Oh, no. [01:41:43] Yeah, he's stepped out. [01:41:46] How do we get him canceled? [01:41:48] I hope we can. [01:41:49] I hope we can get him canceled from his job right now because listen to this. [01:41:55] This is outrageous. [01:41:56] What do you think about that? [01:41:57] I think obviously the protests had a lot to do with it. [01:41:59] We had thousands of young people together outside, a lot of them not wearing masks. [01:42:05] And we know that when you do that and you are talking and you are chanting, et cetera, that really spreads the virus. [01:42:12] So absolutely, the protest had something to do with it. [01:42:15] But also, our people, our residents, did not, I think they let their guard down and started to socialize. [01:42:22] And again, that also had to do with it. [01:42:24] So it's all the above. [01:42:25] I'm not saying it's just that, but it was a contributing factor. [01:42:28] No! [01:42:29] No way. [01:42:30] A contributing factor? [01:42:31] The fight against racism? [01:42:34] No, I'm sorry. [01:42:35] We were just fighting the bigger disease there. [01:42:39] Nobody's saying that. [01:42:39] Nobody's saying that. [01:42:40] I mean, it's not like the thousands of young people gathering at bars doesn't also contribute. [01:42:48] It does. [01:42:49] But you just can't separate because you like the point behind the protests that that activity is okay. [01:42:55] It's not. [01:42:57] It is going to spread the virus. [01:42:58] And we are still at a very vulnerable position. [01:43:00] We're starting to develop some new treatments and things are, you know, we're inching along. [01:43:04] Certain things are helping. [01:43:06] We've, of course, talked a lot about hydroxychloroquine. [01:43:08] A couple positive studies on that lately. [01:43:11] And they threw out the original one that said it was so bad. [01:43:13] It's so deadly. [01:43:14] Yep. [01:43:15] It was a very shoddy work. [01:43:16] Rem Desivir is another one that Trump mentioned in his initial press conference that's showing a lot of promise. [01:43:21] There's a steroid now that is also showing some promise. [01:43:23] And none of these things are curing it, but they're knocking off 5% here and 10% here of death totals. [01:43:30] And that's part of the reason why we haven't had a big flare-up yet, although that could be coming around the corner. [01:43:36] We're just getting to that sort of point where it might be starting to turn up. [01:43:39] The point being, though, that like these are good developments. [01:43:42] We can't close the economy down no matter what happens at this point. [01:43:45] We can't just close it down. [01:43:47] You could do what you can to minimize the risk of spread and all those things, but they act as if we just, let's go back to the Amish days and that should work. [01:43:55] And it's like, well, that's not going to happen. [01:43:58] That's not a good idea. [01:44:00] You know, especially any Amish people who happen to be listening to the radio. [01:44:03] After we just replaced, I don't think Amish people listen to the radio. [01:44:06] Oh, no. [01:44:07] I'll get it. [01:44:08] I didn't have to separate that. [01:44:09] I don't think that, I mean, we just replaced 5 million jobs almost last month. [01:44:15] And now they're starting to shut down certain aspects of in certain cities and certain states that they've already opened up. [01:44:21] And now they're kind of going back on that and shutting things down again. [01:44:25] That is the wrong way to go. [01:44:27] Yeah. [01:44:28] Look, you have to leave it up to the people and try to give them the best information. [01:44:31] But you see what happens when people have mandates. [01:44:33] What do they do? [01:44:34] I mean, you know what? [01:44:35] They had a mandate against fireworks in California. [01:44:37] How did that work out? [01:44:38] People don't listen to these things. [01:44:40] They're a very small part of this conversation. [01:44:43] And they're made as the entire conversation. [01:44:44] What will the governor do? [01:44:46] You think the governor, you think we wind up with 10,000 fines in the state of Texas for the mask? [01:44:54] I would say no. [01:44:54] Is it 5,000? [01:44:55] 1,000? [01:44:56] Will they fine anybody $250 for not wearing a mask in this state? [01:45:00] My hope is no. [01:45:01] My hope is no, probably will be very few, is my guess. [01:45:06] This is the Glenn Beck program. [01:45:10] There's a disturbing new report from Goldman Sachs claiming that over 40% of businesses that have reopened have halted their reopening, placing a hold on it or reversing it entirely. [01:45:20] That's where the economy is right now with the COVID resurgence. [01:45:23] It's just in a tough place. [01:45:25] And it's just the latest event in a trend. [01:45:27] The U.S. dollar is under attack. [01:45:29] Economists have been talking for a while now about how the dollar is in serious danger of losing its place as the world's reserve currency. [01:45:35] And of course, the Fed's answer to this is just buy more printer ink cartridges and just keep printing and printing and printing. [01:45:41] Need to call Goldline and talk to them about diversifying your portfolio. [01:45:45] We don't know how much time is left for the dollar, honestly, and you need to be prepared for whatever comes down the road. [01:45:49] Goldline is offering listeners a free presidential medal just to receive an education about how precious metals can protect your portfolio from total ruin in the event that this situation persists or worsens. [01:46:03] Tell them Glenn asked you to call and learn about how to protect your retirement portfolio from unnecessary fluctuations during this time of volatility. [01:46:10] Limit one per household. [01:46:11] It's the first 100 callers, 866Goldmine, 866Goldmine. [01:46:17] First 100 callers now. [01:46:18] 866 Goldmine is the number to call. [01:46:23] Don't miss Glenn's TV show where he'll show just how important the case against General Flynn is. [01:46:28] It's tomorrow night, 9 Eastern. [01:46:39] It's Pat and Stu. [01:46:41] For Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program. [01:46:43] Hopefully, he'll be feeling better tomorrow. [01:46:45] Triple 8, 727BECK. [01:46:47] Tomorrow's got a new special on, so make sure to check that out. [01:46:50] On Wednesday nights, there's a back-to-back situation that goes on. [01:46:52] Stu Does America, right into the Glenn Beck program on Wednesdays, 8 and 9 p.m. Eastern time. [01:46:58] I would encourage you to subscribe to atblazetv.com/slash Glenn. [01:47:03] The code is fight the mob. [01:47:04] Also, tell you, Pat, my Friday show is my 100th episode of Stu Does America already. [01:47:09] Already? [01:47:10] Yep, most of them quarantine, quarantinated. [01:47:14] But 100th episode. [01:47:15] So we're doing a hundred, you know, they're a normal episode for number 100. [01:47:18] And then afterwards, we're doing a YouTube-only special, Stu Does Power Hour, and which we will attempt to do a political power hour panel where we all talk politics and try to be sensible and also drink one shot of beer per minute like we're in college. [01:47:33] Oh, wow. [01:47:34] Okay. [01:47:35] It's going to be completely ridiculous. [01:47:37] I noticed I wasn't invited to. [01:47:38] No. [01:47:38] Well, we do. [01:47:39] I will say. [01:47:40] Interesting. [01:47:40] I would be interested in a future appearance on one of these because we do have a designated driver, Sarah Gonzalez, who's pregnant, not going to be doing a lot of drinking herself. [01:47:47] That's probably a good idea. [01:47:48] Right. [01:47:49] So she's going to be our designated driver. [01:47:50] We have Chad Prayther on, many others. [01:47:52] It's going to be a really fun show and a bunch of nonsense. [01:47:55] So you've got to subscribe to the YouTube channel. [01:47:56] Easiest way to do it, go to YouTube, search for Stu, S-T-U. [01:48:00] I'll be the first one there. [01:48:01] Okay. [01:48:01] And subscribe and click the little bell. [01:48:04] They'll give you the notifications as to when everything is happening. [01:48:06] Did you see that Melania Trump's former confidant and aide, her right-hand woman, really, is doing a tell-all book coming out September 1st? [01:48:17] So this is hot on the heels of Donald Trump's niece, which happened right after the John Bolton thing. [01:48:25] I mean, is Barron coming out with a tell-all next? [01:48:31] They're just getting hit every which way. [01:48:33] Yeah. [01:48:33] Well, look, there's a lot of money to be made here. [01:48:36] A lot. [01:48:36] And people are like, well, why didn't John Bolton come out and talk about this during the impeachment hearing? [01:48:42] Because he made $2 million immediately from it. [01:48:45] And he sold 780,000 books in the first week, which nobody does anymore. [01:48:49] No. [01:48:49] And I will say that means he's getting more than $2 million. [01:48:51] He had a $2 million advance, which he's already sold here enough copies to pass that, I'm sure. [01:48:59] You know, the thing with, And I think he's right, honestly, that if he came out and said the things he says in his book, it would not have changed the impeachment at all. [01:49:07] I read the book. [01:49:08] He does not say, in fact, he specifically says Trump was exonerated on Russia in the book. [01:49:16] Wow. [01:49:17] Which is not being reported. [01:49:19] Oh, if he had only said these things a year ago, why we'd have an impeached and convicted president. [01:49:25] No, the Republicans are not going to vote him out of office. [01:49:28] I mean, in fact, if you read the book, which I actually did, and I'm convinced 90% of the media did not, what you realize in there is that they agree often. [01:49:37] Trump is actually given credit by Bolton often in the book for being right on these issues. [01:49:44] Basically, as you'd expect, Bolton is aggressive in almost all these foreign policy circumstances. [01:49:50] So sometimes Trump is aggressive and sometimes he's not. [01:49:53] So sometimes they agree and sometimes they don't. [01:49:57] Bolton is definitely critical over Trump about process stuff. [01:50:01] Look, we all know that Trump is not running a normal White House. [01:50:04] So he doesn't go through the normal. [01:50:08] He's talking to some random guy he knows and he changes his mind over something. [01:50:12] That pisses off somebody like Bolton, who's done a giant report on it and presented it and already had a confirmation, right? [01:50:18] Those things. [01:50:18] And I would agree that that's not the best way to run a White House. [01:50:22] Sometimes it gets you some good results. [01:50:24] Sometimes it gets you some bad ones. [01:50:26] And Bolton talks a lot about that. [01:50:29] But he a lot of times agrees with Trump. [01:50:32] And Trump is overriding some of his more passive aides and advisors to Bolton's benefit multiple times in the book. [01:50:41] It happens over and over again. [01:50:43] The one thing that does not happen, there's never a point in which John Bolton says something nice about Nikki Haley. [01:50:48] That is not part of the book. [01:50:51] He hates Nikki Haley. [01:50:54] You want to talk about Tim hating Trump? [01:50:55] I mean, he's critical of Trump, but also at times complimentary of Trump. [01:50:58] That is not the case with Nikki Haley. [01:51:00] He does not like her. [01:51:01] There's no praise of her. [01:51:02] No, not at all. [01:51:03] I mean, I don't know what happens. [01:51:05] You say why he doesn't like her? [01:51:06] There's a lot of talk about... [01:51:09] Now, remember, Bolton used to have that same job. [01:51:12] So he knows that job and that world very well. [01:51:15] She got a lot of praise. [01:51:15] That may have pissed him off. [01:51:16] May have pissed him off. [01:51:17] I don't know. [01:51:17] I mean, we're just reading into it. [01:51:19] He praised him quite a bit when he was UN ambassador, frankly. [01:51:23] And I will say he did a lot of good things, I think, while he was in office with Trump as well. [01:51:27] I mean, he goes through a lot of them, and many of them, this audience, would completely agree with his stance on, and Trump agreed with his stance on. [01:51:33] So it wasn't a constantly adversarial situation. [01:51:37] But with Haley, it was a lot of stuff about her wanting to get in front of the cameras, her thinking about a future run for president, you know, her. [01:51:46] And, you know, he goes through many of the high-profile events. [01:51:51] You could just tell he's critical of a lot of people in the book. [01:51:54] I don't think John Bolton gets along with anybody, frankly. [01:51:58] There's very few people in the book. [01:51:59] He's a caustic guy. [01:52:00] Yeah, there's very few people he's consistently complimentary of. [01:52:03] He seemed to have a halfway decent relationship with Pompeo, I would say. [01:52:06] But I mean, there's not a lot of people he likes. [01:52:11] That doesn't surprise me at all. [01:52:13] It doesn't. [01:52:14] But he really doesn't like Nikki Haley. [01:52:16] I would say if there's anyone in the book, Mattis and Haley get the hardest treatment from Bolton. [01:52:23] Yeah. [01:52:23] I mean, he makes the case often that Mattis would continually slow play events to Trump to basically talk Trump out of doing things. [01:52:33] He mentioned specifically in Syria where Mattis was in charge of coming up with response packages to one of their chemical attacks. [01:52:43] And Mattis basically, ah, we don't have those ready yet. [01:52:47] A lot of that sort of stuff going on. [01:52:48] And then when they would present them, they'd all be very weak. [01:52:50] So there'd be no tough treatment for him to choose from because Mattis had presented only weak options. [01:52:58] And whatever one was tougher, they go, ah, that one's not quite ready yet. [01:53:02] He claims a lot of that is just bureaucracy. [01:53:04] But I mean, it was, look, if you're the type of person who is just looking for a book about nonstop Trump praise, you're not going to like it. [01:53:13] Like if you want a book from, you know, I don't know, you know, some, you know, some media personality that's just going to say constant great things about Trump, this definitely is not the book. [01:53:22] But it is an interesting insight about some of these big moments in the international policy. [01:53:29] You go through the Kim Jong-un meetings one by one. [01:53:31] They do the Syria response. [01:53:35] Did he agree with Trump's stance on North Korea or not? [01:53:39] He was, you know, Trump has had multiple stances on North Korea. [01:53:43] At times when he wanted to be tough on North Korea, he agreed with him. [01:53:47] When he wanted to be meeting with him generally, he was a good idea. [01:53:50] He would have called him a good leader or whatever. [01:53:53] I think one of the things he was most critical of Trump on specifically was his propensity to try to have personal relationships with these dictators and win them over in private conversations. [01:54:04] He didn't like that approach. [01:54:05] And you wouldn't expect that from John Bolton. [01:54:07] He didn't like that approach. [01:54:10] The one specific incident he was most critical of was pulling out of Syria at kind of Turkey's behest. === RekTech Grills: Climate Change & Critical Voices (09:15) === [01:54:19] Did not like that one at all. [01:54:21] He was also critical of the response. [01:54:24] It might have been the, what was the one where he stopped it at the last second? [01:54:27] You remember the story where we were going, I think it may have been one of the chemical attacks on Syria or something, and we were going to respond and we had the, you know, we're an hour away from the troops ready to go. [01:54:38] Oh, no, it was Iran. [01:54:39] Pardon me, it was Iran when they shot down one of our drones. [01:54:42] And we were going to respond to that. [01:54:43] And Bolton, if you remember, Trump came out and said, he actually tweeted this and said, it was an hour before we were going to leave and someone told me 150 Iranians were going to die. [01:54:55] And that was not an equal cost for life for a drone. [01:54:58] So he decided not to do it. [01:55:00] He basically says there was just like one rogue general that was like trying to get them out of it and brought him this number with no evidence. [01:55:06] And Trump was like, well, I don't want 150 people. [01:55:08] So they just canceled the whole thing. [01:55:09] And he said that he basically called that one really irresponsible. [01:55:13] But again, if you look at it in the context of the entire book, it wasn't proportion proportional, right? [01:55:17] Right. [01:55:17] I think Bolton's point was, and it seemed like, at least to Bolton's word, everyone else was kind of in agreement on this, in that they didn't have any evidence it wasn't proportional. [01:55:26] Like it was sort of a random number that wound up not being accurate. [01:55:31] It was more of a scare tactic from one particular guy who wanted to stop it. [01:55:35] That being said, though, look at the, it's typical media treatment of one of these things. [01:55:40] Yes, there was criticism of Trump in there, and I can understand why that leads the news, but there's so much more in here. [01:55:46] And so many times, Bolton is highly critical of the way the media handles these stories. [01:55:53] Bolton is criticizing the media constantly with the way they're misleading the American people. [01:55:59] And many times in agreement with Trump, you haven't heard word one about that from the actual media. [01:56:05] They don't highlight those passages at all. [01:56:08] And, you know, I think they've done a disservice on the book, but what else is new? [01:56:12] It seems like it might be sort of like the Michael Schellenberger book, who's great. [01:56:18] He believes in climate change. [01:56:20] And so you might disagree with some of what's in the book, but the facts that he presents in that book, which the book is called Apocalypse Never. [01:56:30] And this guy has been a climate change activist for, I don't know, 30 years, especially over the last 20, but definitely 30 years. [01:56:40] He's been doing all kinds of things. [01:56:41] He's won awards for climate change. [01:56:44] He's been Times Environmentalist of the Year or something like that in 2009. [01:56:47] He's a fan of the Sandinistas and went down to Manawar Niyarawa to watch the revolution, the socialist revolution happened to be for it. [01:56:58] This is the guy who is saying, look, none of what they're saying about the apocalypse is true. [01:57:04] There is no such thing as the climate apocalypse. [01:57:07] It's not going to happen. [01:57:08] It's not going to happen now. [01:57:09] It's not going to happen in 10 years or 12 or 100. [01:57:13] And the IPCC's not even saying it is. [01:57:16] What's amazing is he's debunking all of these alarmists with the scientists that they're quoting, which is amazing. [01:57:26] So I've really, I haven't read the entire book yet, but I've really enjoyed what I've read, even though the guy is a climate change activist. [01:57:34] Yeah, and you're going to agree with it for it. [01:57:36] You might not agree with everything in the book, but you need to, I always feel like when someone is willing to take on their own side and say something critical, call them, it's you appreciate that. [01:57:47] Yeah, it's like there's a big difference from, you know, I don't know, Anthony Scaramucci, right? [01:57:54] He's Inside the administration and leaves and is fighting publicly with Trump all the time. [01:57:58] Like, I don't, whatever he says, he says. [01:58:00] When it's someone who like you, you've looked at over a long period of time and recognized their work as legitimate and they, you know, when they come out and they like they have something to say, I think that's interesting. [01:58:10] Um, it's one of the reasons why I argued for Bolton to testify at the impeachment hearings because now the administration is having to go through this twice. [01:58:19] If they had done it in the impeachment hearing, it would have been voted down anyway. [01:58:22] The same result would have been. [01:58:23] That's what we were saying at the time. [01:58:24] And we would have said, you know, look, if this is a whole new way, we've already talked about this. [01:58:27] Now they have to deal with this twice, which is not helpful. [01:58:30] But the Schellenberger book is one, you know, I'm glad to see how well it's selling. [01:58:35] I know he was in the top, it was like the number five or six on Amazon. [01:58:39] Oh, good. [01:58:40] It went way up there. [01:58:41] I don't know how high it is now. [01:58:43] But, you know, selling a book on the environment and with, you know, with lots of statistics and stuff, not exactly a path. [01:58:48] It's not sexy. [01:58:49] Yeah, to sexy book sales. [01:58:50] But the fact that he's willing to stand up and say, look, my side, the one I've been fighting for, is lying to you about this, this, this, and this. [01:58:59] And I think they're right about this and this. [01:59:01] That has real value, especially today. [01:59:03] Because so many people are so terrified to say anything against their own side. [01:59:09] Why he wrote the book, really? [01:59:10] It's why he wrote the book. [01:59:11] And it's why people are in a panic over what they're being told. [01:59:15] And they shouldn't be. [01:59:15] It's why you've seen all these networks fold with their shows, canceling cops and live PD. [01:59:20] And, you know, all of this is just fear. [01:59:23] Like, they're afraid to say, yeah, you know what? [01:59:25] The Black Lives Matter website has a bunch of kooky stuff on it. [01:59:28] I know there's a lot of people who don't believe it, but like we need to point out that that stuff's wrong. [01:59:31] They can't even do that because they're terrified. [01:59:34] You know, when you have someone who actually has the bravery to stand up and say something like Michael Schellenberger, it's important to support him. [01:59:39] And I'm really glad to see how well his book is doing. [01:59:41] Yeah, me too. [01:59:42] Trimple 8, 727 back. [01:59:44] Patton Stewart Glenn.

[02:02:10] Youtube.com slash Pat Gray. [02:02:12] I will say too, I was listening to the show. [02:02:15] I don't hear enough about scrumptiouscookie.com on your show. [02:02:17] I'm a little nervous about why that has not been more of a focus because all I know is I want to eat the cookie. [02:02:23] It probably needs to be more of a focus. [02:02:24] Yes, please bring them in next time you're here. [02:02:27] Yeah, if you're in need of a cookie, I mean, this is the best cookie on the planet. [02:02:30] I will agree with that. [02:02:31] Scrumptiouscookie.com. [02:02:32] Yeah. [02:02:33] If you'd like a really delicious cookie. [02:02:36] And there's, you know, I don't. [02:02:37] I was telling my wife this yesterday. [02:02:40] I haven't met a single person in my lifetime who doesn't like her cookies. [02:02:45] I mean, you meet people who don't like the show. [02:02:47] Yeah. [02:02:48] You meet people who don't like you. [02:02:50] I've never met the person who doesn't like her cookies. [02:02:53] It's just objectively great. [02:02:54] That's why it really is. [02:02:56] Legitimately great. [02:02:58] And that's the only reason I really keep in touch with you. [02:03:00] I just know that eventually you're going to bring in cookies. [02:03:03] I don't really. [02:03:03] Yeah, it makes sense. [02:03:04] I mean, you seem like a fine guy or whatever, but I'm really not. [02:03:06] It's really about cookies. [02:03:07] I'm not that good a person. [02:03:08] No. [02:03:09] Yeah. [02:03:09] You know, I mean, it is about the cookies. [02:03:10] It's hard. [02:03:11] It's hard. [02:03:12] You know? [02:03:14] I'm just hoping these cookies don't get canceled because did you know the husband of the owner is a right-wing lunatic on the radio? [02:03:20] Oh my God. [02:03:21] Oh my gosh. [02:03:21] He is. [02:03:22] He's like, no, he's not even in support of Black Lives Matter. [02:03:25] Oh, my God. [02:03:26] Yeah. [02:03:26] You know, he apparently thinks all lives matter. [02:03:29] What? [02:03:29] Yeah. [02:03:30] Yeah. [02:03:30] Cancel this guy. [02:03:31] What a racist. [02:03:32] That means those M ⁇ M cookies are racist.
