=== Remembering Alan Osmond (03:02) ===

[00:00:00]  On today's podcast, a remembrance of a friend of mine, Alan Osmond, who passed away.
[00:00:05]  He was the founding member of the Osmonds back when I was a kid.
[00:00:10]  Also, strangely, and kind of a weird juxtaposition, the millennial sperm update, because we're not having enough kids.
[00:00:19]  The Osmonds, you know, they've dropped the ball here.
[00:00:21]  Actually, they've got a ton of kids.
[00:00:23]  But, you know, we've got to have more kids.
[00:00:26]  Doctors say now there is a problem with THC.
[00:00:31]  Nobody is telling you this problem.
[00:00:33]  It's huge if you're trying to have kids.
[00:00:35]  We found out later in the program after the update, one of the Torch members phoned in and said, my husband just threw away his THC because of that update.
[00:00:47]  So I guess it works.
[00:00:48]  Abolish the Fed also.
[00:00:51]  I really want to show you what is going on behind the scenes at the Fed, and we can't get a new Fed chair fast enough.
[00:00:57]  But me personally, I say shut it down.
[00:01:00]  But the next best thing I get is, I guess, is get a good guy in there.
[00:01:05]  He seems to be a good guy.
[00:01:06]  He was under testimony today.
[00:01:08]  And a bishop calling for a third testament because the Bible is, quote, problematic.
[00:01:17]  Okay, we talk about that as well, all on today's podcast.
[00:01:21]  The sad truth about abortion is it's going to be, you know, a long time with us.
[00:01:28]  It's not a fight that ends next month or next year or with an election cycle.
[00:01:32]  This is a battle of hearts and minds and fear and hope and whether a mom in crisis believes she has anyone to turn to when her life gets really complicated.
[00:01:40]  That kind of battle takes decades.
[00:01:41]  So you keep fighting the good fight.
[00:01:43]  You support the people doing the real work.
[00:01:44]  And right now, those decisions are actually being made.
[00:01:47]  And that's why I tell you about Preborn, because they're the people in the fight.
[00:01:50]  They're there.
[00:01:50]  They provide free ultrasounds, loving care, and they share Christ's love with mom.
[00:01:55]  This April, Preborn's goal is to have 11,000 gospel conversations with women who are coming into the network, trusting God to bring the increase as they remain faithful to speak.
[00:02:06]  But it's made possible by people like you sponsoring ultrasounds.
[00:02:10]  Just $28 provides one ultrasound, $140.
[00:02:13]  Sponsors five ultrasounds for moms in crisis.
[00:02:16]  Every dollar helps save babies and helps share the hope of the gospel.
[00:02:19]  So join and donate today.
[00:02:21]  Pound two fifty, say the keyword baby.
[00:02:23]  That's pound two fifty, keyword baby.
[00:02:25]  Or go to preborn.comslashbeck.
[00:02:26]  That's preborn.comslashbeck, sponsored by Preborn.
[00:02:30]  Hello, America.
[00:02:31]  You know we've been fighting every single day.
[00:02:33]  We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.
[00:02:40]  We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because You deserve it.
[00:02:44]  But to keep this fight going, we need you.
[00:02:47]  Right now, would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast?
[00:02:51]  Give us five stars and leave a comment because every single review helps us break through big tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.
[00:03:00]  This isn't a podcast.
[00:03:01]  This is a movement.

=== Saving Lives Through Ultrasounds (04:56) ===

[00:03:11]  Together, we'll make a difference.
[00:03:13]  And thanks for standing with us.
[00:03:14]  Now let's get to work.
[00:03:25]  Listening to the best of the Glenbeck program.
[00:03:29]  I want to thank Pat Gray for filling in for me yesterday.
[00:03:33]  I was in Las Vegas doing some work over the weekend, looking at some new technology, and boy, the world has changed so much.
[00:03:43]  I mean, technology is amazing what can be done now and what is coming.
[00:03:50]  But Saturday, I got into town and I got a call from a friend of mine, Donnie Osman.
[00:03:59]  And he said, Hey, I just started a new show.
[00:04:01]  I mean, he's had the number one show in Vegas for like, I don't know, 20 years.
[00:04:05]  And he said, Just started a new show.
[00:04:07]  Love to have you come and see it if you're in town.
[00:04:10]  I said, I happen to be in town.
[00:04:13]  And I happen to be with his nephew, David Osman.
[00:04:21]  And David and I are really close, good friends.
[00:04:24]  And his father, Had just been put into hospice.
[00:04:29]  His father is Alan Osmond, the founding member of the Osmonds.
[00:04:34]  And he is the guy who really was the steady hand behind everything.
[00:04:45]  He was the one that held everything together and pushed and pushed and pushed to do the right thing.
[00:04:53]  I mean, most people don't have any idea.
[00:04:56]  They think, oh, the Osmonds, they are super rich or whatever.
[00:04:59]  All of their money was stolen from their agencies, their talent agencies.
[00:05:05]  They had people rip them off blind and then tell them right at the end, oh, by the way, you're broke.
[00:05:12]  And they could have declared bankruptcy, but the family didn't want to do that.
[00:05:16]  They decided they'd sell absolutely everything they had.
[00:05:20]  So none of them got rich.
[00:05:22]  None of them got rich.
[00:05:24]  They worked all of that time, made all of that money, and somebody stole it from them.
[00:05:28]  And then they ended up paying every debt back.
[00:05:34]  themselves.
[00:05:34]  And Alan was responsible for a lot of that, just putting everything together.
[00:05:40]  And he was the guy who, you know, started with Andy Williams and Walt Disney, you know, with the little barbershop quartet.
[00:05:49]  He was one of the main writers of all of the hits.
[00:05:52]  But what people don't know offstage is he had been diagnosed with MS. And MS is a brutal disease.
[00:06:03]  My good friend, Doug, his son, also has MS. And I have watched him go from complete paralysis, not being able to walk in a wheelchair for a while, to being able to walk again.
[00:06:15]  He's had some miraculous times.
[00:06:19]  But you never know that man is in pain.
[00:06:21]  And he is in massive pain.
[00:06:23]  And he watched his father quietly deal with this, never retreating, always organizing and building and.
[00:06:38]  doing good for everybody.
[00:06:41]  I called Alan on Saturday night and I just wanted to tell him how much I love him and thanks for what he's meant to me and my family.
[00:06:56]  It was amazing because his family was around him.
[00:07:00]  I was with his brother and his son, and he was cheering everybody else up.
[00:07:08]  He kept talking about how excited he was to go home and be free of what his body had been doing to him.
[00:07:20]  He's an amazing man of faith.
[00:07:25]  But anybody who grew up with the Osmonds, the man who was.
[00:07:29]  Part of my childhood soundtrack, who I didn't know at the time was the anchor and the builder, and eventually would become kind of a brother, leaves behind a legacy that is so much more than music.
[00:07:52]  Alan Osman.
[00:07:54]  Thank you, my friend.

=== The Future Belongs To The Born (08:59) ===

[00:07:59]  Okay, a couple of other things.
[00:08:02]  Gosh, I don't want to do the Michaela.
[00:08:06]  I work with somebody who's in their 30s, millennial, and every day I have to hear about sperm counts and what's happening.
[00:08:16]  And I'm like, Michaela, I don't, I'm not going to talk about it.
[00:08:19]  She's like, you have to.
[00:08:21]  We're not having babies anymore.
[00:08:22]  And I'm like, I don't know.
[00:08:23]  I think it's because the Japanese are with robots.
[00:08:25]  I don't know why it's happening.
[00:08:27]  And she's like, well, so she said to me, she said, I, this was last week.
[00:08:33]  And every day she's like, Have you talked about the marijuana sperm count thing?
[00:08:38]  And I'm like, No, I.
[00:08:41]  So she said, Sarah, she did something to make it more palatable.
[00:08:52]  Something's torn.
[00:08:53]  You think that's rough?
[00:08:54]  Just give it a sec.
[00:08:55]  This is your dad talking hot about your mom.
[00:08:57]  Yeah, it's back.
[00:08:58]  Wait.
[00:08:59]  Far too late.
[00:09:00]  Here's your millennial birth rate update.
[00:09:03]  I don't think that's necessary.
[00:09:04]  What is she saying?
[00:09:06]  I'm like, it's like dad talking about how hot your mom is.
[00:09:10]  Okay.
[00:09:10]  Let me actually, it's going to be like that.
[00:09:12]  It's so uncomfortable.
[00:09:13]  The sperm update you didn't ask for.
[00:09:15]  I didn't ask for, but apparently you must know a complete and utter scandal that weed has no side effects.
[00:09:23]  So, according to the millennial on my staff, apparently it does have bad side effects.
[00:09:30]  It damages your DNA.
[00:09:31]  And one of the favorite, I guess, Maha podcasts is Huberman Lab.
[00:09:40]  I don't know.
[00:09:42]  Apparently, because she listens to all of them, featured an IVF specialist who said that THC use from dads can double the miscarriage risk.
[00:09:56]  Even if moms never smoked in their life ever, because THC rewrites genetic instructions in the sperm and it attacks the genes that are needed at the most vulnerable stage and the earliest parts of the baby's life.
[00:10:12]  So, one of the reasons why apparently we're not having kids is because everybody is saying, no, no, no, pot's okay, no side effects, it's just like alcohol, whatever.
[00:10:23]  It's not, it's not, especially if you're trying to have babies and it can take six months.
[00:10:29]  For men's sperm to recover from cannabis damage, but we are crashing all over the country.
[00:10:36]  And how many people have walked around going, you know, weed is not, it doesn't have any side effects, it doesn't have any problems.
[00:10:42]  It does, especially if you care about the future of the human race.
[00:10:45]  How am I doing, Michaela?
[00:10:46]  Am I all right?
[00:10:51]  The future is going to belong to those who are born, period.
[00:10:58]  We can fight radical Islam, but with whom?
[00:11:03]  By the way, they don't allow weed.
[00:11:06]  They have more babies than all of us.
[00:11:09]  In fact, several families.
[00:11:11]  I mean, the Osmonds don't exist anymore.
[00:11:14]  I don't know if you know that.
[00:11:15]  Nobody is having.
[00:11:17]  The Mormons and the Catholics are not doing their job.
[00:11:19]  They're letting us down.
[00:11:21]  Where are the big families?
[00:11:24]  And now we are inadvertently sterilizing ourselves and we are wiping out a generation.
[00:11:35]  We have to have kids.
[00:11:36]  We have to have kids.
[00:11:40]  You want children, that's good.
[00:11:43]  Have them.
[00:11:44]  Don't smoke weed because the future is going to belong to those who are born.
[00:11:50]  And right now, Islam is winning.
[00:11:54]  And I don't want my kids or my grandkids growing up in a world where they have to bow to Allah.
[00:12:01]  Sorry.
[00:12:03]  Call me a hater.
[00:12:04]  Don't want it.
[00:12:06]  Jason, before I move off this hour, is there anything that I missed in Iran with the peace deal?
[00:12:13]  I don't think so.
[00:12:14]  I think the big question now is is there even going to be a peace deal?
[00:12:18]  It seems like there's confusion all over the place.
[00:12:20]  It seems like we're sending a delegation, even though that was kind of disputed a couple days ago, but it sounds like we are.
[00:12:25]  It sounds like the, per rumors, that Iran's not even sending a peace deal, which is kind of wild.
[00:12:31]  Didn't we leave here Friday saying that it looked like it was coming to an end?
[00:12:37]  Yeah, on Friday it was the Strait is now open.
[00:12:40]  The Iranians were agreeing with that, per the political leadership in Iran.
[00:12:45]  And then.
[00:12:46]  All of a sudden, they kind of backtracked again, as they've done multiple different times through this process, and said, Wait a minute, no, the strait is not open.
[00:12:54]  And they fired on a couple of ships.
[00:12:57]  I don't really think they understand who is in power.
[00:13:00]  I think the political leadership is trying to get power.
[00:13:02]  I think the IRGC is on the other side, saying, No, we're the ones that have power.
[00:13:07]  And while this turmoil and infighting is happening, the blockade remains in place.
[00:13:12]  I don't think that we have to rush to anything.
[00:13:15]  I think we just sit back.
[00:13:17]  And as you were describing that crisis that's happening with their oil wells just filling up with nowhere to send it to, just let that happen.
[00:13:25]  Just let that happen.
[00:13:26]  Why is it, Jason?
[00:13:27]  I mean, I was looking at the news yesterday and I'm like, nobody's explaining any of this stuff.
[00:13:33]  And we are just arguing about oil prices and we're arguing about sending troops in or who tricked Donald Trump into whatever.
[00:13:43]  And nobody is just saying, guys, they've got about 10 days left.
[00:13:47]  Before, I mean, then you should worry about oil prices.
[00:13:51]  If you don't get in there and they have to shut down those wells, now you're talking about long term damage.
[00:13:57]  Yeah, speaking of long term damage, it's amazing what Iran has done is a historic miscalculation in playing this card that was built or conceived back in the late 1970s, early 80s, when more oil was transiting out of the Strait of Hormuz.
[00:14:13]  It's almost like they were still thinking that that's still the case.
[00:14:15]  So there's no other options.
[00:14:16]  What has this blockade done?
[00:14:18]  What is them actually doing?
[00:14:20]  Deciding to play this card done now.
[00:14:22]  What have we seen with diversification?
[00:14:24]  The Saudis have now built their east west pipeline almost at full capacity right now, completely bypassing the Strait of Hormuz.
[00:14:30]  There are other tankers that are now, you know, headed towards the Gulf of America to fill up.
[00:14:35]  Everyone is looking at other options.
[00:14:37]  This and them playing this card, it's almost like their last death throw, it's their last move, and it's now hastening their demise.
[00:14:44]  If there was any other war in history that was progressing along these lines, they would say, This country is finished, it's done.
[00:14:51]  But that's not what the left is trying to portray through the mainstream media or what they're saying now.
[00:14:55]  It's insane.
[00:14:56]  And with Europe, with exception to the Green New Deal, why would Europe get to a place where they say they may be six weeks away from not being able to fly jets?
[00:15:11]  Yeah.
[00:15:12]  If you have a plan, especially in June, July, August, of going over to Europe, you may not be going to Europe.
[00:15:19]  They may not be able to even fly across the continent because their jet fuel is almost out.
[00:15:24]  That's what they keep saying.
[00:15:25]  What would your motivation, other than if you're a WEF fan, what would your motivation be for not helping America secure the straight?
[00:15:36]  I don't think that they actually can.
[00:15:37]  I was just talking with the insiders now on the degradation of the Royal Navy.
[00:15:42]  They have been so into being drunk off of U.S. defense production and cash over the past, for decades since the end of World War II, that they've let their entire defense industry degrade.
[00:15:56]  And now, not only do they not have the experience to do certain things militarily throughout the world, but they just don't have the money to give to any kind of enforcement.
[00:16:05]  And also, they don't really even have the hardware to do any kind of long term commitment.
[00:16:09]  So, I mean, this war has brought out of the shadows into the light so many different things.
[00:16:15]  Allies, dependence on the United States for multiple different things, defense being a huge one.
[00:16:21]  Possibly the fact that maybe they could have been looking at reliable energy for the past, what, since 2015 when they went just absolutely crazy on the Green Deal.
[00:16:30]  They could have been looking for alternative forms in the event of a crisis, but none of them were on board with being responsible.
[00:16:37]  Now all of that is coming out.
[00:16:38]  It's crazy.
[00:16:39]  All right.
[00:16:39]  Thank you so much, Jason.
[00:16:43]  Most people think preparedness is just about what you buy ahead of time.
[00:16:47]  You get the kit, you put it somewhere safe and you say, okay, I'm covered.
[00:16:51]  But let's be honest, that's really only half of it because when something actually happens, the question is, do I have this?
[00:16:57]  The question is, do I know what to do with it?

[00:17:44]  Now back to the podcast.
[00:17:46]  This is the best of the Glenbeck program.
[00:17:50]  All right.
[00:17:51]  I thought this weekend, how am I going to explain the Fed and what they've just done?
[00:17:56]  So hear me out.
[00:17:58]  Let's imagine the U.S. economy is like one giant, never ending house party that's been raging for years.
[00:18:08]  And the Federal Reserve is the bartender in charge of the punch bowl.
[00:18:14]  The punch bowl, that's liquidity, easy money flowing through the banks and the markets and the businesses.
[00:18:20]  The more punch you get, and the more punch gets.
[00:18:23]  Handed out, the more people get sloppy.
[00:18:26]  And they're like, I love you, man.
[00:18:27]  You're the greatest.
[00:18:29]  Uh huh.
[00:18:30]  You know what we should do?
[00:18:31]  We should buy some stocks.
[00:18:34]  Yeah.
[00:18:35]  That's not a good time to think about anything logically when you are sloppy drunk.
[00:18:42]  So, this is when stocks and houses get wildly overpriced.
[00:18:46]  Companies borrow stupid amounts for.
[00:18:48]  I got an idea.
[00:18:51]  Let's create energy out of nothing.
[00:18:54]  That's brilliant.
[00:18:55]  All of this and that here.
[00:18:57]  Let's have more punch.
[00:18:59]  A little too much punch, and everybody starts to do stupid things, right?
[00:19:04]  You've been there.
[00:19:06]  Not enough punch, and everybody's like, this party kind of sucks.
[00:19:12]  I mean, to be around all these people and talk to them, I have to be at least a little tipsy to enjoy myself, okay?
[00:19:19]  So you want a little bit, but you don't want too much, okay?
[00:19:24]  If you have too little punch, everything grinds to a halt.
[00:19:27]  That in the economy, people lose their jobs, stocks crash, everybody feels like the hangover, and they're like, okay.
[00:19:34]  So, what was the Fed trying to do?
[00:19:36]  What was the bartender at this never ending America party doing?
[00:19:42]  Well, back in 2022, they just printed a whole buttload of money.
[00:19:47]  Okay.
[00:19:48]  We were like, you know what?
[00:19:50]  Everybody should have more money, more money for everybody, and fill it up with punch bowl.
[00:19:56]  And everybody started, you know, Breaking the furniture, everything just got ugly.
[00:20:01]  Then the Fed stepped in and went, okay, okay, okay, maybe we should sober up just a little bit.
[00:20:09]  So, time for everybody to sober up and go home.
[00:20:11]  And so, they announced what is called quantitative tightening.
[00:20:16]  I'm tight.
[00:20:18]  Basically, what they did is they drained the punch bowl.
[00:20:22]  They said, We're going to get rid of some of the punch bowl and we're going to get rid of all of the excess in there because we put way too much alcohol into this punch.
[00:20:32]  Okay.
[00:20:33]  And they needed to spend down, if you will.
[00:20:36]  They needed to get rid of $2.3 trillion worth of bonds that they owned.
[00:20:41]  And they said, We're just going to let them expire.
[00:20:44]  We're just going to let them mature without buying any new ones.
[00:20:47]  Okay.
[00:20:47]  In theory, this drains the money out of the system.
[00:20:51]  Hey, makes it harder for you to get loans and everything else.
[00:20:55]  Borrowing is more expensive.
[00:20:57]  The bubbles will pop.
[00:20:58]  It forces the economy to sober up.
[00:21:04]  The next day, you're like, When did I buy pets.com?
[00:21:09]  You were hammered, man.
[00:21:10]  You were hammered.
[00:21:11]  Okay.
[00:21:13]  Now, pets.com is going to work.
[00:21:14]  It's going to be great.
[00:21:16]  They don't sell pets.
[00:21:17]  I don't know what they sell, but it's pets.com.
[00:21:21]  Hey.
[00:21:24]  So, they were telling us that everybody's getting sober.
[00:21:27]  What did they actually do?
[00:21:31]  Well, during the wild pandemic years, the Fed had poured so much punch that a lot of it ended up in a giant backroom keg called the Overnight Reverse Repo Facility.
[00:21:46]  We've talked about these.
[00:21:47]  Now we know what was going on.
[00:21:50]  These are money market funds, big investors, big banks.
[00:21:54]  And they parked about $2.5 trillion in for safekeeping.
[00:21:59]  And they were earning, you know, a safe interest rate from the Fed.
[00:22:03]  Let's just park your money here in the back door of the Fed.
[00:22:07]  By 2023, something had changed.
[00:22:10]  The short term Treasury bills, super safe government IOUs, started paying higher interest than the keg in the back room.
[00:22:18]  So the big investors said, Why are we letting all that alcohol sit in the keg?
[00:22:27]  We can have a party elsewhere.
[00:22:31]  So they started draining the backroom keg, $100 to $200 billion every single month, and they poured that money right back into stocks and bonds and lending.
[00:22:44]  So they weren't getting it from the punch bowl.
[00:22:46]  No, there was a, what's the passcode?
[00:22:50]  There was a speakeasy in the back of the Fed.
[00:22:54]  The Fed was draining the punch in front of.
[00:22:57]  Everybody else by $2.3 trillion, but the backroom keg was refilling it by $2.5 trillion plus interest.
[00:23:08]  So the net effect here more punch for everybody.
[00:23:13]  In fact, it was more punch than we started with in the first place, about $200 or $300 billion more.
[00:23:20]  Party!
[00:23:22]  That's what they did.
[00:23:24]  That's why the Dow Jones keeps hitting new highs, government keeps funding huge deficits.
[00:23:30]  They don't feel the tightening.
[00:23:31]  You're not seeing the tightening there.
[00:23:32]  You're seeing the tightening with you.
[00:23:35]  The bartender was pretending to cut off the drinks while secretly letting the elite guests go into the back room and get the hidden stash.
[00:23:46]  That's why the whole thing is distorted.
[00:23:49]  Easy money, the extra punch, encourages people to do what?
[00:23:55]  Pest.com.
[00:23:57]  People make stupid, dumb bets when they have too much money around.
[00:24:04]  When money is free, when it's expensive and scarce, you pop the bubbles.
[00:24:10]  When it's not scarce, you grow bubbles.
[00:24:13]  Pest.com.
[00:24:15]  Real estate, private equity, everything.
[00:24:18]  And government hooked on cheap borrowing.
[00:24:22]  So last week, I saw something, and I have not been one to say AI is a bubble because AI is real.
[00:24:30]  And then I saw this story all birds, AI.
[00:24:35]  And I'm like, wait, I'm not drunk, so I got to quit.
[00:24:42]  The shoe company?
[00:24:45]  It's a tennis shoe company.
[00:24:46]  Okay, okay, okay.
[00:24:48]  They tried to make tennis shoes.
[00:24:49]  This went for a while, and then I went out of business and had to sell the whole thing.
[00:24:53]  But they kept the name and now they are doing stuff with AI.
[00:25:00]  What are they doing with AI?
[00:25:02]  I don't know.
[00:25:02]  It's pets.com, pets.com, pets.com.
[00:25:05]  Invest now.
[00:25:06]  It's all birds.
[00:25:07]  You know, all birds.
[00:25:09]  Yeah, they made shoes.
[00:25:10]  No, they're doing AI now.
[00:25:13]  Oh, okay.
[00:25:14]  Oh my gosh.
[00:25:15]  If that doesn't sound like a raging alcoholic talk, I don't think I've heard one.
[00:25:23]  So they avoided.
[00:25:25]  The pain of quantitative tightening because they were draining in the back.
[00:25:32]  They didn't clean up anything.
[00:25:35]  You're hurt.
[00:25:36]  You're hurt.
[00:25:36]  But the big guys aren't.
[00:25:38]  And that's what counts.
[00:25:40]  And they're making the hangover worse because mathematics, if you don't fix the problem, it's only going to get bigger.
[00:25:53]  So now they've run out of the hidden refill.
[00:25:56]  Now, the Punchbowl is empty and the back room is closed too.
[00:26:05]  Yeah, it is.
[00:26:07]  It is.
[00:26:08]  So, what do they have to do?
[00:26:10]  Quantitative easing.
[00:26:11]  No, no, no.
[00:26:13]  We would never do quantitative easing.
[00:26:15]  Are you kidding me?
[00:26:17]  No, we're not doing that.
[00:26:20]  Okay.
[00:26:21]  I mean, we're going to buy about $40 billion a month in securities, but this isn't quantitative easing.
[00:26:28]  This is.
[00:26:29]  Reserve management purchases.
[00:26:38]  They are not calling it quantitative easing.
[00:26:41]  It's reserve management purchases.
[00:26:47]  No way you can figure that one out.
[00:26:53]  So, what is the point of this?
[00:26:58]  Look out, gang.
[00:27:00]  You've been lied to yet again.
[00:27:04]  You've lost.
[00:27:05]  They win.
[00:27:07]  When I say they, who are they?
[00:27:11]  Who is the Federal Reserve?
[00:27:13]  The United States government.
[00:27:15]  No, it's not.
[00:27:16]  No, it's not.
[00:27:18]  Nope.
[00:27:20]  The Federal Reserve are the five biggest banks in the union.
[00:27:25]  Gee.
[00:27:27]  What are the five banks that don't ever seem to go down or have a problem?
[00:27:32]  They just keep getting bigger and gobbling up all the other banks.
[00:27:37]  Yeah.
[00:27:38]  We can't tell you for sure because nobody knows who they are.
[00:27:42]  Nobody needs to know.
[00:27:44]  What is the business of yours?
[00:27:46]  Who the bank is?
[00:27:47]  I don't know.
[00:27:48]  I don't know.
[00:27:49]  I think it's probably pretty important because they're impoverishing all of us and making themselves bigger and bigger and bigger.
[00:27:56]  This is not the federal government.
[00:27:58]  I mean, we got our own problems with the federal government.
[00:28:00]  This is the federal government covering for them.
[00:28:03]  This is the federal government.
[00:28:05]  Nobody has the balls to say, you know what?
[00:28:07]  You're a criminal organization.
[00:28:10]  You're stealing from the American people.

=== Faith In An Outdated Church (14:39) ===

[00:28:12]  And it's time it has to stop.
[00:28:15]  End the Fed.
[00:28:19]  This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
[00:28:24]  So, friends, I want you to gather around, put your hands on the radio, and feel the spirit right now as this Democratic bishop.
[00:28:32]  Stands up and says, We need a third testament because the first two are problematic.
[00:28:40]  No, I've never heard a bishop say, Yeah, you know, the new and old testament kind of problematic from a vitriolic God.
[00:28:48]  But that's what she said.
[00:28:49]  Listen to this a very dangerous thing that I'm about to say now.
[00:28:52]  But since I'm a bit dangerous, say it.
[00:28:56]  I'm of the opinion that we need a third testament.
[00:29:01]  Wow.
[00:29:02]  Because the Bible has become problematic.
[00:29:05]  Ah.
[00:29:08]  Slaves obey your masters as you do the Lord.
[00:29:10]  It's a text.
[00:29:12]  Let the women keep silent in the churches.
[00:29:14]  And if they have any questions, let them ask their husbands at home.
[00:29:20]  Read.
[00:29:20]  I'm a believer.
[00:29:22]  My whole heart.
[00:29:23]  I trust God with my whole heart.
[00:29:26]  I wake up in the morning talking to God and God talking to me.
[00:29:28]  I don't think you're listening.
[00:29:30]  But I am completely frustrated.
[00:29:32]  Ah.
[00:29:33]  With the ways in which the text speaks to the kind of vitriolic God that makes those kinds of things.
[00:29:43]  And people will say, Well, it's in the book.
[00:29:45]  And I said, Then we need to pour that page out.
[00:29:49]  They said, Well, you can't do it.
[00:29:50]  It's the Word of God.
[00:29:51]  I said, No, it's words about God.
[00:29:53]  Come on now.
[00:29:54]  But is it the Word of God?
[00:29:56]  No, it is not the Word of God.
[00:29:58]  Ah, okay.
[00:30:00]  Okay.
[00:30:00]  I don't remember learning that in Bible school.
[00:30:03]  Anybody with me on that?
[00:30:04]  Can I get an amen?
[00:30:05]  I don't remember hearing.
[00:30:07]  Now, I went to a church once.
[00:30:09]  My wife and I went on this church tour, and we were looking for a church, and we went to all kinds of different churches.
[00:30:15]  And it was actually really fun.
[00:30:17]  I love doing this.
[00:30:18]  Well, except for this particular one.
[00:30:20]  We went to a church, it was a congregational church in Cheshire, Connecticut.
[00:30:24]  And we walk into it, and, you know, it's fine all the way through the service, it's fine until the pastor gets up and he's given the sermon.
[00:30:34]  And halfway through the sermon, he says, Now, you all know that.
[00:30:38]  I don't believe in God, but if there be a God, we surely should serve him.
[00:30:44]  And I thought, wait.
[00:30:46]  And I look at my wife and I said, Tanya, did he just say?
[00:30:49]  She said, uh huh.
[00:30:50]  I said, shouldn't that be on the front door someplace?
[00:30:52]  Our pastor doesn't believe in God.
[00:30:54]  I mean, I think that's kind of a, you know, it's kind of a big deal.
[00:30:57]  I don't want to take part in anybody's religion.
[00:31:00]  You know, your faith is your faith, but God is never changing, never changing.
[00:31:08]  And the problematic text, I don't know.
[00:31:10]  She's.
[00:31:11]  She's quoting the same verses, you know, your middle school atheist friend would do, you know.
[00:31:17]  Well, slaves obey the masters, right?
[00:31:20]  Have women keep silent in the church.
[00:31:22]  Okay, all right, I'm not in the first grade anymore.
[00:31:25]  So, or even the fourth grade.
[00:31:27]  You know, you could take some time and actually wrestle with those verses in the context that they were written in instead of, you know, looking at it through a 2026 context.
[00:31:37]  Anytime you find yourself saying, you know, I think the Bible is problematic.
[00:31:42]  The Bible is problematic.
[00:31:44]  I don't think I can count you as a believer.
[00:31:47]  Maybe it's just me.
[00:31:48]  Maybe I'm just old school that way, you know?
[00:31:53]  I don't know if she also knows that it was the Bible that inspired liberation of slaves, you know, women.
[00:32:06]  The entire story is anyone can free themselves from man by submitting themselves to God.
[00:32:16]  But this bishop is now proposing the opposite.
[00:32:19]  She wants to free us from God and submit to her ideas of right and wrong because I don't know.
[00:32:26]  They're just so.
[00:32:28]  Imagine somebody.
[00:32:28]  This is pretty much what she said.
[00:32:31]  I don't know.
[00:32:33]  Thou shalt not commit adultery.
[00:32:35]  I mean, is that really today?
[00:32:40]  Does that fit in today?
[00:32:41]  It's kind of problematic.
[00:32:44]  Look how many people are.
[00:32:45]  I mean, we could just start tearing pages out of the Bible, we won't end up with any in there.
[00:32:48]  But we could just start tearing pages out of the Bible.
[00:32:51]  That doesn't make the Bible more true.
[00:32:54]  It makes your Bible riddled with flaws.
[00:32:59]  But again, maybe it's just me.
[00:33:02]  Here's the thing she fundamentally misunderstands humans' relationship with God.
[00:33:09]  Because as a human, we need to ask Is this the God of the universe?
[00:33:17]  Instead, she asks the question, Do I like him though?
[00:33:24]  I mean, not are you the God of the universe that said that?
[00:33:28]  Do I like you?
[00:33:29]  Or do you, are you kind of outdated?
[00:33:33]  Because you don't sound very open minded, you know, because it sounds like she doesn't like him.
[00:33:37]  She's decided to remake him in her image, in with her values.
[00:33:43]  So she becomes God and God bends to her will instead of real trust in God.
[00:33:51]  And And God's purpose of trying to bend us to his will.
[00:33:56]  I mean, I think one of you is going to win, and I don't think it's you.
[00:34:01]  You know, I tried this game for the first 35 years of my life.
[00:34:04]  Oh, I thought I could get God to bend in my.
[00:34:06]  He's a little outdated, a little outdated.
[00:34:08]  I don't know if I like all of those things.
[00:34:10]  You know, I don't think he understood, you know, what I was going to go, what I was going to be going through.
[00:34:14]  You know what I mean?
[00:34:16]  It's not to the year two anymore.
[00:34:19]  You know, things have changed.
[00:34:21]  Yeah, that doesn't work out well for you.
[00:34:23]  It doesn't.
[00:34:24]  You know, anyone saying they're going to free you from God, what are they actually saying?
[00:34:31]  I'm going to free you from God.
[00:34:35]  Submit to me because you will have a God.
[00:34:39]  You will worship a God.
[00:34:41]  You know, and so many Americans still attend the church of woke with its praise and worship and value system that, you know, they have their own style of holy war that justifies violence against enemies.
[00:34:58]  You want to talk about vitriol?
[00:35:00]  I've seen a lot of vitriol in the streets.
[00:35:04]  I've seen it in the churches.
[00:35:06]  I've seen people come in in Minnesota and go into the churches and talk about their God as opposed to the people who are in the church worshiping God.
[00:35:18]  That seemed like a lot of vitriol there.
[00:35:21]  That's how we have a grown man throwing down a five foot TPUSA reporter.
[00:35:29]  It was a religious act.
[00:35:33]  Do you understand?
[00:35:33]  This is what's happening.
[00:35:35]  People are making their own God and following their own God.
[00:35:39]  And it is a religious experience.
[00:35:42]  Think of that.
[00:35:42]  They excommunicate.
[00:35:43]  If you don't agree with everything they say, they excommunicate you.
[00:35:49]  You can't question it.
[00:35:51]  It's the dark ages kind of God.
[00:35:54]  You don't question that.
[00:35:55]  You just don't know.
[00:35:56]  We know better than you.
[00:35:57]  What are you questioning for?
[00:35:58]  Are you a problem?
[00:36:01]  Is that you, Satan, that's making you say that?
[00:36:04]  The only thing they don't say is Satan.
[00:36:09]  Is that Donald Trump that makes you say that?
[00:36:12]  You can't be, we can't be around you.
[00:36:14]  Uh uh.
[00:36:15]  No.
[00:36:18]  The biblical prophets never came around going, hey, that old God, the stuff the other prophets were talking about, boy, oh boy.
[00:36:27]  They got it wrong.
[00:36:28]  They did it wrong.
[00:36:29]  They never say, disregard what came before.
[00:36:32]  The Ten Commandments, ah, take four of them and you can pick four.
[00:36:41]  The Bible tells us how to deal with people like this.
[00:36:45]  If they say something is going to happen and it doesn't, drop them immediately.
[00:36:50]  I think this applies to preachers and politicians and personalities on the radio like me.
[00:36:57]  Also, if it does come true, you still ditch them if they tell you to go follow your own God over God.
[00:37:05]  If I went on the air and I said, hey, by the way, the Bible's problematic.
[00:37:11]  You should pick and choose.
[00:37:12]  Nope.
[00:37:14]  Nope.
[00:37:17]  One thing God is is consistent.
[00:37:22]  And teachers from God are consistent with it.
[00:37:26]  They're not at war with God because they think he's problematic.
[00:37:31]  The Bible and human history are clear.
[00:37:35]  We're the problems, not the Bible.
[00:37:37]  We're the problems.
[00:37:39]  And when do we become a problem?
[00:37:40]  When we try to remake God to be like us, to match our politics.
[00:37:45]  Or our ideas on how we want to live our life.
[00:37:49]  Okay.
[00:37:50]  And then once we become God, we always become petty tyrants.
[00:37:54]  That's what always happens.
[00:37:56]  The American system is built on the principle that Americans submit only to one God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
[00:38:05]  And that's what protects us from people who think they are God making us their subjects.
[00:38:11]  That's the problem with progressivism.
[00:38:14]  They think they're God, they think they know more than everybody else.
[00:38:21]  And it's true whether you believe in God or not.
[00:38:24]  Don't listen to people trying to destroy a foundation like that because it's always a ploy for more power, always.
[00:38:34]  And I believe God has messages for us and messages yet to come, you know, but they are not going to come for messengers calling him problematic.
[00:38:44]  They're not going to come and go, you know what?
[00:38:46]  Life is getting hard for you because you don't agree with so much in the Bible.
[00:38:51]  Yeah, that's kind of the point, I think.
[00:38:53]  The point is like, there's a lot of truth here, and you're not going to like any of it.
[00:38:57]  I think that's why people avoid it.
[00:38:59]  It's why people avoid going to church for two reasons.
[00:39:02]  One, they're not saying anything, they're more like that person.
[00:39:05]  Let me just tell you what you really want to believe.
[00:39:11]  You know, or the other reason to avoid is because they hear it and they hear truth and they don't want to live that way.
[00:39:17]  Sorry.
[00:39:20]  Just is.
[00:39:21]  It is what it is, and it's not problematic.
[00:39:24]  I think we're the problem.
[00:39:26]  I want to show you how the left has made everything into a religion.
[00:39:33]  You know, I told you they have excommunication.
[00:39:36]  You know it.
[00:39:36]  They kick you out of the club, they kick you out of church.
[00:39:40]  But they also have traditions and faiths that you cannot question.
[00:39:47]  You know, it's the other side that's making you question this.
[00:39:51]  But they also have like choirs and choruses.
[00:39:54]  Have you ever noticed that?
[00:39:56]  The left is always digging out a new folk song.
[00:40:00]  I mean, here's this is the New York City gay men's chorus.
[00:40:04]  They're actually pretty good.
[00:40:06]  Listen to this.
[00:40:21]  But really, you're getting together to sing political songs about we're all going to get out and vote.
[00:40:26]  That's your God.
[00:40:28]  That's your God.
[00:40:29]  You've made politics your God.
[00:40:32]  Here's the one I love this one.
[00:40:35]  Do you remember the tree activists that were in a city council meeting in Seattle and said, We've got a song to sing for you?
[00:40:43]  Listen to this one.
[00:40:45]  Unwelcome sight in the neighborhood.
[00:40:47]  A developer is being greedy.
[00:40:49]  There's a hole in the sky where a tree once stood.
[00:40:55]  Yeah.
[00:40:57]  And?
[00:40:57]  Such a lack of life and sound.
[00:41:00]  All that's left is bare, muddy ground.
[00:41:03]  A magnificent tree was murdered.
[00:41:06]  The mighty dollar cut it down.
[00:41:10]  There's a hole in the sky where the tree once was.
[00:41:13]  Somebody's making money.
[00:41:15]  Stop.
[00:41:16]  Stand up, everybody.
[00:41:17]  She's getting militant now.
[00:41:18]  Stand up and sing this song with me.
[00:41:22]  You thought AI music was bad.
[00:41:23]  No, no.
[00:41:24]  People can do worse.
[00:41:26]  Okay, again, stand up and sing it with me.
[00:41:30]  Here's another one.
[00:41:31]  Here is a new choir on what democracy looks like.
[00:41:34]  I think this one is in Missouri.
[00:41:36]  Listen to this one.
[00:41:37]  Two, three, four, one.
[00:41:39]  We see that there's a wrong to be righted to.
[00:41:44]  We know that we are stronger when united.
[00:41:59]  I think this is done in either a church or a school.
[00:42:01]  It looks like a church, you know.
[00:42:04]  But that's like the choir singing.
[00:42:07]  Again, they've made it into a religion.
[00:42:11]  That's what they're doing.
[00:42:13]  Everything is a religion.
[00:42:14]  If you lose God, if you destroy one God, you will replace.
[00:42:19]  People need God.
[00:42:21]  What do you worship?
[00:42:23]  You could worship your car.
[00:42:24]  You could worship your job.
[00:42:26]  You could worship your, you know, your followers on Twitter.
[00:42:30]  What is it you worship?
[00:42:31]  Your looks?
[00:42:32]  You're worshiping something.
[00:42:35]  And I know that book is really, really outdated, but it says you should really worship God.
[00:42:40]  I mean, God, God, the God, you know, at least the one in the book.
[00:42:44]  But that's a little outdated.
[00:42:45]  It's so, I don't know, 200 BC.
[00:42:49]  Maybe that's just me.
