Glenn and Pat confront LinkedIn investor

October 21, 2014
 Wilson

Writer

During the interview with Peter Thiel, Glenn and Pat confronted him for allegedly investing in the most annoying social media service on the planet — LinkedIn. What’s their problem with it?

Below is a transcript of the segment:

PAT: What was your -- what was your involvement with LinkedIn? Did you start LinkedIn?

PETER: No, I was just -- I was just an early investor.

PAT: Distance yourself.

PETER: I was an early investor.

GLENN: How could you do that? You're a guy that doesn't take business cards from people. Someone hands you a card, you don't like that.

PETER: I take them. You always get overwhelmed with people pitching you proposals.

GLENN: So you take them, but they end up in a circular file.

PETER: They end up somewhere.

GLENN: So how could you have been a guy who helped with LinkedIn. It's the bane of our existence.

PETER: How is that?

PAT: We get a million requests on LinkedIn and we don't know how to stop it.

GLENN: I swear I never signed up for the damn system.

PETER: You don't have to engage. You can always just not do anything.

GLENN: Yet it just keeps coming.

PAT: It's relentless. It's the most relentless --

GLENN: His wife asked me to sign up.

PAT: Accidentally pushed a wrong button and asked every human on earth to join.

GLENN: Jackie wants to know why you haven't done this. Jackie wants to know are you a bad human being Jackie wants to know are you Amish or something why won't you sign up with LinkedIn?

PETER: Let's focus on the positive here.

GLENN: Okay.

PETER: We are in an economy that's a networked economy, which means the relationships you build with people are unbelievably important over time.

GLENN: That sounds like a guy who is still making money from that damn LinkedIn.

PETER: Well, I'm not even invested in it anymore.

PAT: It's done good? Is that what you're saying?

PETER: It's done more good than evil.

GLENN: We're not accusing it of evil. It's just obnoxious.

PAT: It's done a lot of obnoxious --

GLENN: Just leave me alone. I don't want to be LinkedIn.

PAT: Can you unsign or unsubscribe or get off somewhere?

GLENN: This may be below his pay grade.

PAT: It might be.

PETER: You just don't have to do anything.

GLENN: Well, that's the opposite advice you gave about the future. You said, if we don't do anything, the future arrives. If we do nothing, we'll be sucked into the LinkedIn nightmare.

PETER: Don't do anything in general. Don't do anything in particular in certain areas.

VACATION or INTERNMENT? What's really going on in Australia’s COVID camps?

The government of the Northern Territory of Australia is now running "mandatory supervised" COVID-19 quarantine facilities, and there are a lot of conflicting reports going around about what's really happening in these "camps." Are they internment camps, summer vacation spots, or something in between?

On "The Glenn Beck Program" Monday, Glenn and Producer Stu Burguiere discussed the case of 26-year-old Australian resident Hayley Hodgson, who detailed her experience at the Center of National Resilience in Howard Springs during a recent interview with UnHerd. They compared Hodgson's description of the Howard Springs facility to images of bikini-clad Australians in quarantine who appear to be on holiday at the same facility.

So, what's really going on with Australia's COVID quarantine facilities? Watch the video clip below to hear Glenn and Stu break down what we know so far:

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 the video clip below to hear Glenn offer his thoughts on how you can solve the Great Reset's housing crisis:

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."
