Glenn's new company helps local business get exposure

September 01, 2011

"We said we wanted to find ways to expose good, decent companies and good, decent people and get them exposure and help them launch," Glenn told listeners on the radio show this morning.

Today, Markdown.com does just that.

At 58 years old Robert Darling, founder of Slotto, found himself unemployed for the first time in his life. He first went to the streets with a sign that read, “I need a job.” As months turned to years, Robert realized the only way out of his desperation was to create his own destiny. Out of Robert’s hardship, the brainchild of ‘Slotto’ was born. Slotto represents everything 'Made in America' stands for - that anyone with a dream, a little ingenuity & willingness to work can become successful.

Even the local news picked up on his amazing story:

Darling writes:

Inspired by Charles Eames’ House of Cards when I was growing up in the 1950’s, Slotto finally came to life in 2008 when I was unable to find a job for the first time in my 61 years. I sold Slotto at the Portland, Oregon Satur- day Market for 3 years as my wife’s job paid most of the bills. I tested large and small Slotto sets at local pre-schools and as the sets got better so did the response.

Today, Slotto has become part of the Early Childhood Training pro- gram at one of the largest Children’s Museum in America and they claim it’s “...right at the top!” when compared to other construction sets on the market today.

After being featured on a TV news station in January, I was contacted by the CEO of a major US corporation about mass production. Our original plan was for them to produce the plastic sets and I would produce the wood- en sets. On his reputation alone, Walmart has agreed to place Slotto in their stores pending pricing and cost studies. Unfortunately, they have been un- able to find a way to make a plastic set that will fit into their cost limits.

In the meantime, still on the rags side of what I’d hoped was going to be a “rags to riches,” story, Glenn Beck and the great people at Markdown.com are helping me keep the dream alive with this 48 hour sale.

I still hand make each set in my 10’ x 8’ backyard shop with old, but still accurate tools.

Three members of the 1st Place team in the 2010 State of Oregon Lego Competition, have Slotto sets and integrate them with their Lego creations. One 13 year old girl commented, “I like Slotto because you’re not limited in what you can create.” Her brother said, “..everything just fits!”

I was featured in a recent toy industry magazine, The Toy Book as a new toy that’s coming to the market soon as we’d expected to be in Walmart by now. I’m still looking for investors who might help this American rags to riches story become a reality and be an inspiration for others to be free to create and pursue their dreams in this greatest country on God’s green earth!

Thank you for your time and consideration and each set has a money- back guarantee. I haven’t gotten one back yet!

Glenn Beck: Here's how YOU can fix the Great Reset's housing crisis

How's the housing market looking these days? Because under Build Back Better (aka the Great Reset), investors are grabbing up homes at a record pace.

On "The Glenn Beck Radio Program," Glenn discussed a recent Redfin News report, which shows that almost one in five homes sold in the U.S. during the third quarter of 2021 was purchased by an investment firm, and many are paying tens of thousands of dollars over the asking price.

"Think of that, one in every five homes that are sold are going to a big investment firm," Glenn said. "Investors bought more than 90,000 homes, totaling more than $63 billion, representing 18% of all homes sold in the quarter. The numbers broke all records."

"The same factors have pushed more Americans to rent, which also creates opportunities for investors, because investors typically turn the homes they purchase into rentals," he continued. "And now they can charge higher rents. Rent for single-family homes surged by more than 10% in the 12 months, through September. The fastest annual rent inflation in 16 years."

"And nearly 77% purchased were bought in an all-cash transaction," Glenn added. "That's not your average person. These investment firms, like BlackRock, are going in and buying entire neighborhoods. They are the people that come in, and say, 'I'll give you $70,000 over the asking price.' ... Now, why would investment firms think they will just be able to make money paying $70,000 over the asking price? What is it that they know, that you don't know? Could they know, as the Great Reset states, that by 2030, you will own nothing and you'll like it?"

WATCH: From Russia to Waukesha: The Lying Media's Assault on Truth

On "Glenn TV" Wednesday, Glenn Beck exposes the radical plan to flip the United States from capitalism to socialism and into a lawless nation. It's an old strategy that mirrors a communist Cold War playbook. The goal now, as it was then, is this: How do they get a revolution without all that civil war stuff? It’s a five-step plan, and we're deep into several of the main steps RIGHT NOW.

Our justice system has been infiltrated by woke leftists, and something called "the progressive prosecutor movement" is methodically transforming Main Street USA into Main Street Gotham City. We can see it all over the country in places like San Francisco, with the Waukesha massacre as a terrifying glimpse into more of what's coming. And the media? They're currently running interference in one of the largest misinformation operations in history.

It’s happening at the city, state, AND federal levels. And President Trump might be one of the biggest victims of them all, a fact that even Trump critic Joe Rogan has realized on the Russia collusion hoax: “No one is being held accountable!” That ends now, as Glenn calls on Americans to push back on the lies that keep us divided in a cold civil war.

'This WILL bring darkness': Glenn Beck warns 'new global religion' being formed right NOW

A "one-world government" is being formed right now and it’s called the Great Reset, Glenn Beck said on the radio program Monday. And now, rebuild plans for the fire-damaged Notre Dame Cathedral hint at the formation of a global church, too.

In this clip, Glenn detailed plans for the iconic, 850-year-old church’s "woke" renovations that sound more like a 'politically correct Disneyland' complete with a "discovery trail," "emotional spaces," and 14 themed chapels.

"Notre Dame is now being built back better as a 'woke theme park' dedicated to environmentalism and social justice," Glenn explained.

"There will be several different chapels within, [for example] a chapel for social justice, and then chapel for environmental justice," he continued. "Which leads me to this point. The 'one-world government' is being formed, right now. One-world government. It is being formed and it's called The Great Reset."

Glenn went on to predict that one of the first steps in the direction of a one-world government will be a push for a global religion.

"I think we're seeing the first church now being dedicated to the new global religion — and it is social justice, environmental justice, and all this gobbledygook. We all know, it's not just wrong, it is dangerous. That's the first church, the cathedral of Notre Dame, in France, is the first global church. Mark my words. Christian, Jews, Muslims ... this global church will bring darkness unlike you've ever seen."

The Omicron COVID-19 variant: Should we ACTUALLY panic?

As the new Omicron variant of the coronavirus approaches, it seems like those in power want everyone to be terrified, Glenn Beck argued on the radio program Monday.

The chair of the World Medical Association's Council, Frank Ulrich Montgomery, is already comparing the variant to Ebola and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) has declared a state of emergency, despite the doctor who announced its discovery describing the new variant's symptoms as "unusual, but mild." So, should we really be worried or not?

In this clip, Glenn and producer Stu Burguiere reviewed what we know about the Omicron variant so far and gave a few reasons why we should wait for more information before succumbing to panic.

Note: The content of this clip does not provide medical advice. Please seek the advice of local health officials for any COVID-related questions & concerns.
