Glenn Beck: People who Matter

December 16, 2009
 Radio Clips

The Glenn Beck Program


Vote for Glenn

STU: Although I did see in the Wall Street Journal you are one of the people who mattered. One of the nominees for Person Who Most Mattered.

GLENN: Really? So this is Person That Most Mattered. Not people. Individuals.

PAT: Who else was named.

STU: Bernie Madoff.

GLENN: All right.

PAT: That's pretty good. You've got to be kidding me. Jack the Ripper.

STU: Went a different way in sports not Usain Bolt. But Brett Favre was on the list.

GLENN: Because I'm not a sports guy, let me just pretend why I don't understand why the Brett Favre story is such a big story.

PAT: He's 40 years old playing the best year of his career.

GLENN: So in regular times that's a big story. Like five years ago or --

PAT: In sports terms it's a big story.

GLENN: Three years ago.

STU: It's still a big story.

GLENN: I understand that. But it doesn't -- when you're saying in the Man of the Year or the thing, the people that mattered, that is an important story, but when your world is burning down it's not necessarily --

STU: Barack Obama was listed on there. Rush was listed on there. The reason they should vote for you instead of Rush. Rush has 10 billion awards for everything. We have nothing. We're in a socialist.

GLENN: Are we campaigning?

STU: We're in a socialist country where everyone should be equal.

GLENN: Social justice.

STU: Exactly.

GLENN: Let me quote, who is the Chavez lover in the FCC?

PAT: Mark Lloyd.

GLENN: To quote Mark Lloyd, from the FCC. Let me give you this. America needs to ask itself who is going to step down so others can have their turn.

PAT: Exactly.

GLENN: I think Mark Lloyd would approve of Rush Limbaugh stepping down so I can have my turn.

STU: It's not about accomplishments. The president or Rush Limbaugh.

GLENN: If you are talking about who really mattered.

STU: No, but we deserve it.

GLENN: Bernie Madoff had his time in the sun.

STU: Right.

PAT: Tomorrow I'm going to bring you a Participator of the Year award trophy.

GLENN: I did participate.

STU: You participated in the country.

GLENN: Who else are people who mattered. Barack Obama. Clearly.

STU: If you're going to pick the guy who really mattered, Michael Jackson is on the matter.

GLENN: He didn't matter.

STU: He's on the list.

GLENN: No he didn't. He caused a lot of people to scream at their television. Why are we still covering this? Hang on. Is Andy Stern, he mattered.

STU: Andy Stern is on the list. He mattered to you. No one else knows who he is.

GLENN: The most frequent visitor to the White House. The guy who helped design the stimulus care and healthcare package. Didn't matter.

STU: Didn't matter.

GLENN: George Storos.

STU: Didn't matter.

GLENN: Carl Marx.

STU: Shockingly enough.

PAT: He had a come back year. Brett Favre. How old is he. How old is Carl Marx. 175.

'Enemies of this nation are baking a new American cake': Jason Whitlock on how we take our country back

How does a sports writer know how to fix America, and America's racial dilemma?

In a special edition of the "Glenn Beck Radio Program," Outkick sports columnist Jason Whitlock filled in Tuesday for Glenn to explain how we can bring America back together, lean into racial harmony, and restore the values of our Founding Fathers. Because if not us, then who will?

Jason started out by explaining how, during a recent appearance on the program, he felt a spiritual connection with Glenn, regardless of physical differences, as both share a common passion for God and country.

"Glenn and I share a kindred spirit. A kindred passion," Jason said. "We have two things that we love and are passionate about: God and country. I am not a minister. I'm a flawed sinner just like Glenn and just like you. But I am a believer. Believers share an energy that connects them, that cuts through our physical differences and makes those differences irrelevant relevant. That's what I felt when I met Glenn, an energy and a spirit that connects us. We are broadcasters, media personalities, operating in separate spaces, trying to talk to Americans, who share our passion."

Jason went on to say that he believes there are forces operating, both outside of and inside America, that are working to separate America from God, and that much of what we've witnessed in 2020 — from the racial division stirred by the mainstream and social media, to the rioting and looting by Antifa and Black Lives Matter, to the "remaking of the sports world into a shrine that celebrates resisting criminal suspects and denigrates this great country at every turn" — are symptoms and consequences of America's enemies separating God and country.

"We are one nation under God. We are nothing without Him," Jason continued. "The flawed sinners who founded this nation baked God into this country with their Declaration of Independence. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. That they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights. That among those, are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The foreign and domestic enemies of this nation are baking a new American cake. God isn't an essential ingredient in this new cake. He isn't an ingredient at all. The removal of faith is sewing the disharmony that is terrorizing and destroying the United States of America.

"Why am I here today? I'm here to tell you how we take our country back, how we restore the freedoms and the liberties our enemies seek to remove in their remaking of a godless America."

British author Douglas Murray issues urgent warning to Americans: 'DON'T be a silent majority'

One of the most shocking things British journalist, political commentator, and author of "The Madness of Crowds," Douglas Murray witnessed during his recent stay in America, was how many Americans are acting as if they live in 1930s Germany or behind the Iron Curtain, afraid to stand up and speak out because they're afraid of the consequences.

Murray joined the "Glenn Beck Podcast" this week to explain why he believes the state of America is actually worse than we realize, and how the Left's obsession with rewriting history has ushered in guilt, fear, and a "silent majority."

Murray said he's particularly "fed up" with those on the Right who are afraid to voice their opinion because they don't want to become the target of leftist mobs on social media.

"Do you think anyone in history who told the truth had an easy time? You've got the easiest time that any opposition movement ever did in history," Murray said.

"You cannot have these people in America living in a free society — which is for the time being free — pretending that they live under the circumstances of Jews in 1930s Germany," he added. "Speak up. Speak out. Don't be a silent majority; be a very damn noisy majority. And don't put up with the oppression of people who are totally insincere ... they want to make money. They want to win. Nothing more. Call them out ... and get back to what you should be doing as a nation."

WATCH: Andrew Cuomo MOCKS reporters for questions on NYC school closures — so Glenn Beck responds in kind

New York City shut down its schools over the coronavirus with barely any notice. But even before that, Governor Andrew Cuomo apparently wasn't in the mood to be asked about it, and he made that very clear to reporters.

Asked on Wednesday whether parents could expect schools to be closed as soon as Thursday, Cuomo mocked reporters for their "obnoxious and offensive" questions and accused them of not paying attention. Watch the testy exchange for yourself here.

On Thursday's radio program, Glenn Beck and producer Stu Burguiere had plenty to say about Stu's least favorite governor and the decision to close schools. But Glenn also offered his own theory on why coronavirus restrictions have become so political: Americans refuse to be forced into submission.

Watch the video below to catch the conversation:

LIVE NOW: Battleground Georgia: The Radical Democrats Who Will TRANSFORM America

Everything comes down to the two Senate runoffs in Georgia. If we lose both races, we lose the country. Democrats know this and are pouring in millions to usher in a Marxist agenda.

As the Left tries to hide how radical the two candidates really are, Glenn takes us inside the Democrat war room to expose the wolf in pastor's clothing, Raphael Warnock, and America's Justin Trudeau, Jon Ossoff. Socialism, the Green New Deal, and "defund the police" are all on the table. And Glenn warns of what's to come if conservatives don't activate: Chuck Schumer will weaponize the Senate, and the radical Left will launch an all-out assault to ravage the Constitution.
