Glenn Beck is seen here on the Insider Webcam, an exclusive feature available only to Glenn Beck Insiders. Learn more...

GLENN: Let me go to Chris, who is the general manager and President. Are you the president of this company?

Chris: President now, yes. You promoted me.

Glenn: Well, that's and it's important, too.

Caller: Yeah, yeah.

Glenn: So, anyway, Chris, you had an interesting weekend. Stu will not tell me what happened to you this weekend.

Chris: Well, I think it's for good reason. I think we all needed to find this out together.

Glenn: Okay.

Chris: So, on Saturday night I decided to go to Madison square garden to view a concert by the Eagles. You know the Eagles?

Glenn: Yes, I do know the Eagles.

Chris: And so I'm sitting there minding my own business, watching the Eagles concert and they're playing all the hits, hotel California.

Glenn: Yes.

Chris: Boys of Summer.

Glenn: End of Innocence? Is it End of Innocence? What is the end of

Stu: End of the Innocence. Those are all Don Henley songs.

Glenn: Well, I know. I'm trying to think of Don Henley is the one that really drives me out of my mind.

Chris: Take it to the limit. Yeah. Good quality stuff.

Glenn: Good quality stuff. How were they?

Chris: They were actually very good and so then another song comes on, Dirty Laundry.

Glenn: Oh, boy.

Chris: Do you remember this song?

Glenn: Oh, I love this song. It's a Don Henley long. Can you play a little of Dirty Laundry? Yes.

Chris: And during Dirty Laundry, they have a full screen, you know, like a full kind of like whole stage screen behind them.

Glenn: I have a feeling I know where this is going and it's not going to turn out well for me?

Chris: Well, Glenn, they had a video montage that they had produced running behind them during the song and the highlight of that video montage was you.

Glenn: At the Eagles concert?

Chris: At the Eagles concert featured, I would say, prominently during the song was highlights from the Glenn Beck program.

Glenn: Can we sue them?

Chris: They have a lot of money. We were in good company because the other people that were in this video Monday damage were Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Jerry Springer.

Glenn: Jerry Springer?

Chris: Hang on. Rupert Murdock and you.

Glenn: Me. Well, that's the evil, right there! Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Rupert Murdock, Jerry Springer, and me.

Chris: Yeah.

Glenn: That's

Stu: The expanded axis of evil.

Glenn: That would be fantastic. I'll have to go to an Eagles concert. Now they can say it to my face!

Chris: What if you just stood on the stage while they were performing the song?

Glenn: You don't know what these guys are singing. Listen to me. You're going to die.

Stu: Congratulations, Glenn, you are now the example of evil journalism.

Glenn: I'm just giving dirty laundry.

Stu: Right.

Glenn: How many times have I said on the air, I can't take it, I can't take the dirty laundry

Stu: Right. Because we used to play this song all the time, kind of like as far as, like, giving an example of that. Shockingly enough, it's now turned around.

Chris: It was mostly real story clips, by the way.

Glenn: Like what did they show?

Chris: A lot of real story graphics about you shouting about oil.

Glenn: Oil, yeah! That would be the thing, too, because you know, you've got everybody in the audience going, yeah! Yeah. That oil thing, that's not a problem. Like, what was I could you hear me? Did you hear any reaction from the crowd, because we're not even known in New York.

Chris: No, no. I think if there was booing, it was Bill O'Reilly or for Murdock.

Glenn: Rupert Murdock?

Stu: Tour dates, the next date, Philadelphia, July 14th at the Wachovia Center.

Glenn: July 14th. Okay. So, that's Saturday. That's a week from Saturday. So

Chris: Of July.

Glenn: Oh, July. We need somebody that's a long wait. Of what are they what, are they talking the walkers to Philadelphia?

Stu: On their website it says the next date is July 14th.

Chris: I think they take a little time to roll in their money between concerts.

Glenn: How much were the tickets?

Chris: $189.

Glenn: What?

Chris: Yeah. So, yeah.

Glenn: Did you have good seats for $189?

Chris: I mean, I wasn't, like, front row or anything. I mean

Glenn: You guys are all too young. I remember when the Jacksons went on tour when Michael Jackson was really, really hot, and I think the tickets were $19 and people went crazy. People were, like, $19? This better be one damn good show! $19 now, you would be, like, am I inside? Does that just get me into the parking lot? Do I have to put my ear up to the glass door?

Chris: I kid you not. My ticket master service charge was $19.

Glenn: Unbelievable.

Chris: That was just on top of the ticket price.

Glenn: Now I feel like it's a deal to come to our show this week. How much are tickets to our show?

Chris: 35 to 45.

Glenn: That's an outrage. Worth every dime but

Stu: You should be 145, apparently. I mean, you could see Glenn Beck on stage live for $45 or you could see him on screen with the Eagles for 189.

Glenn: Why not see the real thing? I mean, I'm just saying. Chris, thanks, man.

Chris: Sure.

Glenn: All right. Bye.

Chris: Bye.

Glenn: I'm becoming that guy. I don't want to be that agree.

Stu: The evil guy? I mean, you have no choice.

Glenn: I'm the evil guy. I know. Do you know if I just had do you know if I just had the flip opinion, do you know how big we would be?

Stu: Yeah. Of oh, I'm seeing it now on YouTube here Glenn.

Glenn: They have it on YouTube?

Stu: It's on YouTube. Yes. There it is.

Glenn: Can't we sue them? Get Joe on the phone. Will you?

Stu: We can't sue them.

Glenn: Why not? They have deep pockets. Let's go for it. It's the American way. Joe is here. That's what he does.

Stu: Yeah. I don't think he would be comfortable with that analysis of what he does.

Glenn: Oh, he's a scumbag attorney and he knows it.

Stu: He's an attorney. I don't know that he would consider himself a scumbag.

Glenn: Oh, he's not personally a scumbag but every attorney, you've got to have a degree of scumbag if you. I mean, I think even Joe will say that.

Stu: Yeah, he probably would. Yes, do I see Jerry Springer clips and then it flashes to Bill O'Reilly. Oh and Elizabeth Hasselbeck has made it.

Glenn: Oh, she's such a dirt bag.

Stu: How evil is Elizabeth Hasselbeck? And then the Morning Show on FOX.

WARNING from a survivor: Is China’s horrific past America’s terrifying future?

America has always been the land of the free. But as the line fades between the socialist, woke Left, and the Democratic Party that controls our government, are we diving headfirst into Marxism?

On his BlazeTV exclusive show, Glenn Beck spoke with Li Schoolland, who grew up under Mao's cultural revolution in China, and never did she think she would see the same warning signs in America. But now, she has a horrifying warning for us all.

'YOUR voice makes a difference': Coca-Cola takes a 'pause' on woke initiatives after BIG boycott

Earlier this year, Coca-Cola became the poster child for how a corporation could shove leftist ideologies onto its consumers. The company suspended advertising on Facebook in a push to censor former President Donald Trump, published a manifesto about racial equity, and demanded all legal teams working for Coke meet certain diversity quotas.

But now, after Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tx.), Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), and many other conservative voices called for a boycott of the company's products, Coca-Cola appears to be shifting directions.

The Washington Examiner reported that the company issued a conciliatory statement after conspicuously failing to appear on a published list of hundreds of corporations and individuals that signed a statement denouncing the Georgia voting bill.

"We believe the best way to make progress now is for everyone to come together and listen respectfully, share concerns, and collaborate on a path forward. We remained open and productive conversations with advocacy groups and lawmakers who may have differing views," the company said. "It's time to find common ground. In the end, we all want the same thing – free and fair elections, the cornerstone of our democracy."

Then last week, Coca-Cola Co.'s new general counsel, Monica Howard Douglas, told members of the company's global legal team that the diversity initiative announced by her predecessor, Bradley Gayton, is "taking a pause for now." Gayton resigned unexpectedly from the position on April 21, after only eight months on the job, to serve as a strategic consultant to Chairman and CEO James Quincey.

"Why is Coca-Cola 'taking a pause' on all of these? Because you have been standing up," Glenn Beck said on the radio program Monday. "You and others have been standing up. Your voice, it's the power of one. Your voice makes a difference."

'The problem is NOT racial': Bob Woodson, civil rights activist who survived segregation, counters 'race grievance' LIES

This week on "The Glenn Beck Podcast," civil rights activist and Woodson Center founder Bob Woodson joined Glenn to call out the leftists in the "race grievance industry," like the Rev. Al Sharpton and Black Lives Matter, Inc., who, he says, are "profiting off the misery of their people."

Woodson lived through the appalling segregation laws of the last century and has a much different message about what it means to be "oppressed" than the so-called "anti-racist" activists today.

Woodson said he believes the real struggle for impoverished minority communities "is not racial." He argued that leftists "at the top" derive "moral authority" by claiming to represent "so called marginalized groups," while they prosper at the expense of those "at the bottom."

"There's nothing worse than self-flagellating guilty white people and rich, angry black people who profit off the misery of their people," Woodson said.

"I call what Sharpton and some of those are doing is worse than bigotry. It's treason. It's moral treason against their own people," he added. "The only time you hear from them is when a white police officer kills a black person, which happens maybe 20 or 21 times a year, but 6,000 blacks are killed each year by other blacks. So, in other words, their message is black lives only matter when taken by someone white, which means you are betraying the black community when you turn your back on 20 children that are slaughtered and you don't march in that community and demand that those killers be turned over to the police."

'The problem is not racial," Woodson asserted. "The problem is the challenge of upward mobility. Any time you generalize about a group of people, blacks, whites, Native American, and then you try to apply remedies, it always benefits those at the top at the expense of those at the bottom. ... It's a bait and switch game where you're using the demographics of the worst of these, to get resources that helps the best of these, or those who are prospering at the top. So, if I was the president, I would say an end to the race grievance business, that America should concentrate on the moral and spiritual free fall that is consuming people at the bottom."

Mark Levin decodes Biden’s first address to Congress, EXPOSES radical plans for our country

Image source: Video screenshot

Following President Joe Biden's first joint address to Congress, Glenn Beck joined fellow BlazeTV host and author of the new book, "American Marxism," Mark Levin to expose what they called the "Liar-In-Chief's" radical plans for our country and to explain why the far Left's proposals and programs are really a "frontal attack" on our Constitution, our country, and our way of life.

"Substantively, this is a frontal attack on our Constitutional system of limited government. It is a frontal attack on our capitalist system. He's basically throwing out all the bromides for the radical left groups that now form the base of the modern Democrat Party. And I make the case that ... this is Marxist bullcrap in its broadest sense," Levin stated.

"Here we are, a country now where one man can get up in the middle of the night and make a list of everything he wants to do to the country," he added, speaking figuratively. "It's like an unreality where we're living in separate worlds ... the whole thing is a fraud."

Watch the video clip below to hear Levin expose the lies and misinformation in Biden's speech and explain why he believes the true message is absolutely chilling for the future of our nation:
