Caller: Beck fans are the most amazing people out there

December 17, 2014
 Radio Clips

The Glenn Beck Program

This morning on radio, Glenn took the opportunity to brag about what an amazing audience you all are. He brought up Facebook, and how so many people would be lifted by our remarkable audience. You.

Glenn said:

I've always had a deep profound respect for our audience. I've always felt -- I say this all the time in business meetings and everything else. People don't understand what our audience is. They really don't. They think that -- somehow or another, what's the secret to your success, like we did something. It's not. It's the audience. I do believe that you're a beacon. Everybody is a beacon. You attract what you put off. And so we generally put off, you know, we believe in a better world and we believe that we can be better than we are and we believe in -- in, you know, make it yourself and stand out your own two feet and question with boldness. And so that's who we're surrounded by. We're surrounded by good, charitable individuals.

Following his praise of the audience, Andy from Massachusetts called into the show. Andy asked Glenn to pray for him as he has been dealing with "some personal demons." In answer to his simple request, Andy was flooded with responses from all of you on Facebook, encouraging him, offering prayers, and saying you were all there for him.

Immediatley after Andy's call, Chris from Montana called in, revealing some personal issues he is also currently struggling through. While Glenn was able to point Chris towards the apostle Paul in the Bible, his true strength will come from all of you sending thoughts and prayers his way.

Listen to these heartwarming calls below:

GLENN: Let me go to Andy in Massachusetts. Hello, you're on the Glenn Beck Program.

CALLER: Hey, Glenn.

GLENN: Hey.

CALLER: I wanted to comment on your Facebook post. I heard you talking about it. Last night I actually commented on that post. And I've been going through a lot. I struggle with some personal demons, so I asked you simply to just pray for me. I know sometimes you comment. Sometimes you don't. Occasionally you do. When I woke up this morning, there were over 110 responses from random people who I don't even know who said that they would pray for me and God was there for me and that's such a humbling thing. Beck fans are the most amazing people out there.

GLENN: Can I you something that's why I said to Pat you should read my Facebook posts. It's not just the posts. It's the comments. We all have trolls, but my fans are getting better at just not responding to them but if they do respond to them it's with love and once that happens, it doesn't happen anymore. They just move on. But the responses from the fans, and the intersection with the fans. Facebook was up in our office in New York talking about our fans. And the way we're interacting with our fans. And they said that there's no one using Facebook the way we're using Facebook right now. And there's nobody that is interacting with their fans the way that we're interacting. And I will tell you that just in the last couple of months, the Facebook experience has changed. You know, just over the last summer, it was -- you know, it was typical. It was typical. It had -- but now people are starting to care for one another. They're starting -- it's an amazing community. And Andy, you're exactly right. And I bet -- did I comment on yours this morning?

CALLER: You didn't but I think you liked it. It was almost -- there was like 250 likes on that comment. I think that you did like it.

GLENN: There was a couple of people that I liked and I couple that I stopped and commented on. That were saying the same thing. Hey, I need some prayers and everything else. And I saw the number of responses on some of these. And it's so heartening. You're exactly right, Andy. This audience will -- once you get into that community, you realize you're not alone. It's -- it's honestly, it's the secret to our summer events. Why they're so important. And it is the secret to -- you know, when -- for instance, with dough this book signing tonight or tomorrow night, it's kind of that same kind of feeling. We get together and you just -- you're just in a room and you're -- the closest I can explain is when you go to Disneyland. And you just -- you know how you get your guard down and you're like, I'm safe and you know that nothing bad is going to be lurking around the corner, unless it's Jeffy. You know, it's just kind of that feeling of I am around a bunch of people that know that the world doesn't have to be like this. And it is so great. Andy, we'll keep you in our prayers. Thank you so much. Let me go to Chris in Montana. You're on.

CALLER: Glenn, first of all, I'd like to say I've been a fan of yours since were you funny.

(laughing).

PAT: Holy cow.

GLENN: Been that long?

PAT: Oh, my gosh.

GLENN: It's been that long.

PAT: Wow.

GLENN: Okay.

CALLER: Yeah.

GLENN: Sorry, Chris.

CALLER: I would really like to thank you. Last week I found out my wife -- we've been having our problems. We've had a really bad year. We have lost three dear members of our family. Two of them was in the same week. In February. It's been a tough year on our marriage. We've been trying to go to counseling. We've been separated since right before Thanksgiving. And last week I found out she was having an affair. And it wasn't a sexual affair but it was an emotional affair. And she had the man in my house. And I'm a truck driver and I've gone five days a week and she told my kids to keep it a secret. And I have to believe there was no sexual anything with that. And I don't think there was. But I'm like, you know what, this isn't worth it anymore. And you know, I've been really looking and thinking about the pivot point that you made, the comment. And this is my pivot point. And I've been on a destructive behavior this whole year. I've been drinking a lot and I don't know where God is or anything. And I was raised Catholic. So anyways, I picked up -- I've been going to the counseling and I'm like, I'm done with that, too. And the counselor said keep the work book and the other day my mind was going a thousand miles an hour. And I picked up the work book and my mind calmed down. And I wanted to keep with the counseling. And I'm like, how do I find God. Well, I was Catholic, so I called a priest. I meet with my counselor tomorrow at 11:00, with a priest at 1:00 p.m. and I'm going today also. And I want to thank you for that.

GLENN: Good for you.

CALLER: You're an amazing person, Glenn. I thank you for everything you've done for all of us. And that's all I really wanted to say.

GLENN: Chris, you just hold on, brother. God exists. And you'll find him. If you turn over every stone and -- if I can just -- if I could make the suggestion, I have fallen in love with Paul, the apostle. Read Paul. Start at Acts and just read Paul. He's such an amazing guy. And every answer that you need is right there. But you'll find God. And He does exist and I'm telling you, you know, I wrote to somebody the other day that if you just -- if you just make a promise to yourself to do no more damage, just I'm not going to fix it. I'm not going to do any more damage and I'm going to go to bed tonight. I'm going to make it through the day. And I'm just not going to do any more damage, and I'm going to keep my integrity. I promise you, you're reaping the seeds that you may have sown even unbeknownst to you. You're reaping the things that you have sown. There's a new harvest. Till all of that ground. Just turn it all over. Now plant new seeds. You're going to be planting a while and it's going to take a while for the season to change. But it will sprout new plants and I'm telling you, if you sow seeds of honor and integrity and decency and kindness and love and charity and forgiveness, I promise you, that that harvest is going to come in and you will not believe -- you will not believe that you are the farmer of that field. I've been there. I know. God bless you. Thank you, Chris.

CALLER: Thank you, Glenn. I love you, man.

GLENN: I love you, too. Thank you very much.

Megyn Kelly: Trans ideology in schools is 'NOT support … this is INDOCTRINATION'

Image source: video screenshot

Megyn Kelly pulled her sons out of the private elementary school they attended after she learned that the boys were asked "weekly" if they were still sure they were boys. But that's not all that this "experimental transgender education program" taught.

Megyn joined Glenn Beck on the radio program to tell the story, which she thought had ended when the school apologized, and to talk about what's next for America as our leaders refuse to promote actual psychological support for our kids and instead "parade" transgenderism as the solution to their problems.

"When [my son] was in third grade, I found out they unleashed a three-week experimental transgender education program on these boys, with really inappropriate videos. The kids were confused. These are 8- and 9-year-olds, Glenn. They have no idea what the school is even talking about with the trans thing. They got really in-depth, with really in-your-face videos — and then parents complained. And the school did something it hasn't done in its 400-year history, which was they apologized. Even they realized they had done wrong," Megyn explained.

"But, then I said to my son a year later, so did they ever round back to the trans thing? Like, whatever happened with it? And he said ... they bring it up every week. ... [They ask] how many people here still feel confident that they're a boy? Do you still feel sure you're a boy?" she continued. "This is not support. This is not nonbullying. This is indoctrination. And it's deeply confusing to the children, and wrong."

Megyn went on to give examples of how she's seen trans ideology turn "support, nonbullying, kindness, friendship, allyship, on its head."

"The absolute surrender of the medical community to this insanity is a scourge on this nation. It's disgusting what is happening with our doctors," she added. "There are people who are legitimately transgender, or who have gender dysphoria. And for those people, we should be supportive and they should get the care that they need. But what we've done instead, is taken everyone who expresses any kind of gender confusion and said, you're trans. You're trans. And we have our psychiatrists doing this."

"It's crazy," Megyn asserted. "The fact that we're doing this so willy-nilly in the name of allyship and support, it's abusive. It's criminal."

WATCH: Biden’s Middle East Chaos: Our Dangerous Path to the Next 9/11

"Never forget" is not only a tribute to those we've lost, it's a warning that it could happen AGAIN. On "Glenn TV" Wednesday, Glenn Beck looks back 20 years ago to the modern generation's Pearl Harbor moment. A day of infamy we're STILL feeling repercussions from.

But in remembering 9/11, we need to look toward the future because the Biden administration is setting us up for the NEXT 9/11. They bungled the Afghanistan withdrawal, and now we have video of top al Qaeda commanders — who served with Osama bin Laden — returning to the country. But could America survive another terror attack?

Glenn asks former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani, the leader who brought America back from the brink. He tells Glenn about the moment he learned the Twin Towers were struck, the actions he took to prevent more terrorism, and if he thinks NYC could survive another attack under Mayor de Blasio's leadership.

Glenn is also joined by Rev. Johnnie Moore, author of "The Next Jihad." He warns that Biden's policies in the Middle East are Obama 2.0, and "if you thought ISIS was bad, you haven't seen anything yet. We must keep our eyes on Iran."

WATCH: Glenn Beck reveals SHOCKING details of stalled Afghanistan rescue efforts

Glenn Beck and The Nazarene Fund have been working tirelessly to evacuate Americans and our allies from Afghanistan, thanks to the U.S. government's failure to do so. But it's been far from easy. A recent Newsweek article, titled "Taliban Holds Up Glenn Beck Group's Planes," addressed some of the most recent challenges. The article claimed that six planes — filled with Americans and SIVs ready for takeoff — were "grounded by the Taliban amid negotiations with the U.S. State Department." So, what's actually going on? Why is the State Department meddling in the rescue? And what are the next steps to get these Americans home?

'Who are those idiots?' Bill O'Reilly reacts to STUNNING claims that 'right-wing' groups are bigger threat than THE TALIBAN

Bill O'Reilly joined "The Glenn Beck Program" Friday to discuss a recent House Homeland Security Committee briefing on the impact of the 9/11 terror attacks, during which "national security experts" claimed "right-wing" groups pose a greater threat to the United States than groups like the Taliban or Al-Qaeda.

Glenn played two video clips from the briefing that showed Senior Fellow Brookings Institute Center for Middle East Policy, Daniel Byman, and former National Intelligence Council Chair during the Obama administration, Christopher Kojm, in apparent agreement that "right-wing extremists" are a bigger threat to Americans today than "jihadists."

"I'm someone who has written extensively on both jihadist groups, but also right-wing, white supremacist groups," Byman says in the first video clip. "And in my mind, there's no question that today in the United States, the right-wing and white supremacist violence is a much greater risk."

"I agree with your assessment and those of my colleagues who have spoken already, there's little doubt that the domestic terrorist threat from white nationalists and right-wing extremist groups is greater than the jihadist threat today," Kojm states in the second clip.

"Who are those idiots?" O'Reilly exclaimed. "It's just unbelievable ... they're not even in the same universe. Yeah, there are bad neo-Nazi Americans running around, yeah, but there are very few of them. I mean, the jihadists are causing death and destruction, death and destruction all over the world. Not just in the United States. These people are so blatantly irresponsible and ignorant, it's just staggering."
