GLENN: Speaking of shortages, 29 percent of the top-selling baby formula products are out of stock and have been out of stong by mid-March.

Data Assembly, which tracks baby formula stock at 11,000 retailers. They say this is a shocking number. They don't see it now for other categories. We've been tracking it over time. It's going up dramatically. We see this category is being affected by economic conditions more dramatically than others.

The second largest pharmacy, Walgreens, with over 9,000 locations announced it's now rationing baby formula.

Guys, we haven't even started yet. Rationing baby formula.

And they say, it is because there was a recall in January. But also, vital ingredients we can't get. Packaging, apparently has problems. But the freight costs are through the roof. And labor shortages.

STU: It's incredible.

A friend of mine had a baby boy.

Premie. I think 24 or 25 weeks, early enough that it was almost impossible.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

STU: Twenty years ago wouldn't have been possible.

GLENN: Yeah. Right.

STU: And touch and go for a while. Lived at the hospital for six months, I think. Finally, came home. And they have to feed him this very specific type of formula that's easy for him to digest, I guess. And they were -- they had months of this formula, at their house. And then this recall happened. They had to throw it all out.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

STU: And now they spent half their time driving around Texas, looking to different Walgreens, and CBSs, hoping to find one cannister of this stuff.

GLENN: Imagine how frightening that would be. If your child couldn't be breastfed. That would be adopted babies. Mothers with some sort of a problem. Babies with problems. I mean, that's got to be terrifying.

STU: Terrifying. And he's like, we have about three weeks left. We should be good, hopefully for now. We have an order from Amazon. Hopefully, it comes. They're on the edge of their seats, trying to figure out whether they can feed their kid or not.

GLENN: Does this get worse, guys?

STU: I think you're right. We're at the beginning.

GLENN: We're at the beginning.

Listen. Take care of it. Do all that you can do. This is so important. Do all that you can do. Don't wait. Get food storage. Buy two of everything when you only need one. And store one. However you want to do it. But do all that you can do. And then trust. Trust that God is good and gracious. And that whatever it is, if you don't have enough, you know, it -- that's why you need a network. That's why you need to rely on -- on others. You're not going to be -- you're not going to starve to death. Not in the America I know. So do all that you know. Please do all you can. And be a blessing to others. Speaking of shortages, how is the car coming? We're almost approaching 7 months now, aren't we?

STU: Oh, no. We're over 7, Glenn.

We're approaching eight months. We should point out. It's eight months since I officially placed the order.

So I went through a very lengthy process of debating and going back and forth.

GLENN: Right.

STU: And finally placed the order that was over seven months ago.

GLENN: Because your car is like ten years old or something, isn't it?

STU: 2011, I think. Coming up on 11 years old.

GLENN: Because you don't flip cars all the time.

STU: No. And I like the car I had. So I just kept it, and now we're at 120,000 miles on it. Now I know, it could ride a little bit longer. But I'm thinking about, every time I get in the car. I'm like, this is -- the transmission will lock up today. Isn't it? Something will happen, where I won't get no value at the end --

GLENN: So you're really ahead of the game, in some ways.

STU: I wish I went earlier. Maybe I would have had the car delivered already.

But so I then decided, you know what, I'll go with an interim car. I'll get a new car that's not exactly the one I want, that's not the one I ordered. Because I want to get something. In case this thing dies.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: But it's running great. It should last a long time anyway. Hopefully. Right as I'm ordering that one. Which is supposed to come in today. Today. We'll see. It was a couple weeks I did it. Then right as I -- three or four days ago, I got an email from the first dealership that said, your order was just pulled for production. I said, what does that mean? And she said, we should have a target production date, within 30 days.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

STU: So that doesn't mean I get the car within 30 days. It means that we needed have a target -- a target production date delivery within 30 days. This is the life we're all going to be living now. This is the life we're all going to be living.

STU: Because I keep thinking how bad my situation is. And it's bad, from the perspective of, this is America.

GLENN: It's not bad. We're not playing a violin for you.

STU: They're supposed to be knocking at my door every hour of the day, to make me buy a car. Remember the car salesman thing? Where they're harassing you all the time.

GLENN: Now they're like, I'm not sure if we can get you into a car.

STU: I'm trying to spend money at these places, they won't even return my call. But my story pales in comparison to your story.

GLENN: Oh, don't bring this up. No, no, no.

STU: Which, I remember -- I think I'm pretty sure Mitt Romney was running for president when you ordered one particular --

GLENN: So I bought an old Toyota land cruiser. And I just -- I just wanted it to work. Okay? Just wanted it to work.

STU: Yeah. Right.

GLENN: And now three years later. Three years later, this place, that I don't know what I was thinking. This place that is -- is working on it. Uh-huh.

Because I blew a gasket last summer. And I'm like, okay. Guys. Put it in a box. Just put it in a box. And send it to me.

STU: So it's an old land cruiser you were sending.

GLENN: To reposition. So you can actually use it, you know what I mean?

STU: How old is it?

GLENN: 1976.

STU: So modernizing it a little bit.

GLENN: Yeah. So put it in a box. No, no, no. You will have it -- you will have it by Christmas.

STU: Well.

GLENN: No, no, no. I -- I made the mistake. I didn't ask which year. Okay? I just assumed, it was last -- and then they said, it will be right after Christmas. Then it will be at the end of first quarter -- now we're at the end of second quarter.

I think they sold this thing. I think it's gone. I think they maybe had a fire. Sold it. I don't know what happened to it. But I don't think I'm ever getting this car. And if they happen to be listening. Put it in a box, and ship it to me. Good God Almighty. You know what, what's happening to us now, now, I have -- an old cabin that was the original rat-infested, falling apart cabin, built in like 1890. And in it, is the original wood stove. And it says right on the front. You know, made in Ohio.

1891. And I have often thought. I mean, the town that that cabin is in, is still only 500 people. So I can't imagine how few people there were living in that area. When that came and arrived in the Wells Fargo area in 1891. And I thought, imagine what a big deal this was. Back then.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: I bet neighbors came from miles around, to see the new stove. If you would have just gotten a new car, I wouldn't -- I would have been like, oh. Seen it in the parking lot. Walked around it. You would have talked to me. Blah, blah, blah. Now, I want to drive it. I've got to see this car. It's like the Wells Fargo wagon. We're going back to a time where they're like, wow. You got a new spoon. Wow.

STU: See, this is the best argument for Biden's presidency. He's increasing the drama for every purchase. You don't think it's going to come. It's amazing.

GLENN: Yeah. Lots of drama. Lots of the regime. All right. Let me tell you about RealEstateAgentsITrust.com. If you're thinking about selling or buying a home. It's not a piece of cake.

(OUT AT 10:46AM)

GLENN: This is the Glenn Beck Program. We're -- we're glad you're here. Let me -- let me play something from Chuck Todd, that happened over the weekend. On Biden. And his grades on the economy.

VOICE: As Democrats look ahead to November. They see a lot of reason for concern. Their top concern, likely the economy. And while measuring the country's economic fissure right now is complicated. The nation's (inaudible) is certainly not.

In fact, the consumer sentiment index from the inner state of Michigan is probably the best thing we have to measure where people think the economy is.

When Biden took office, it sat at '79. It went up a little bit. In sort of B-plus territory. With the covid response improved, it's now sitting at 62.8.

It's basically a failing grade, if you want. Before -- just before the pandemic hit, February 2020. This index was hitting at 101. People felt really good about the economy.

GLENN: Uh-huh. So he's saying --

STU: Huh.

GLENN: F, Joe Biden. That's what he --

STU: Really? I thought you're supposed to say, let's go Brandon.

GLENN: No, well, but he said failing grade.

That's basically an F. It's like if you're filing -- it would be filed under Beck Glenn. This would just be filed under F Joe Biden.

STU: Got it. Definitely my mistake.

GLENN: By the way, if you missed the show. You missed the explanation of what the president was talking about within on -- on -- well, you know, on -- on the one word that describes America. This came out on Friday. I want to play it.

BIDEN: America is a nation that can be defined in a single word. Excuse me. The foothills of the Himalayas with Xi Jinping. Traveling with him, traveled 17,000 miles when I was vice president. I don't know that for a fact.

GLENN: What the hell is that?

STU: Is he ever actually -- like, is there -- I don't know. Ten minutes later, does he get to the word? I've seen this clip. But I have not seen, did he actually get to a word at some point?

GLENN: Nobody actually watched the whole thing. So it's very difficult. Very difficult to get through it.

STU: Okay. That's unfortunate. I will say, probably the best moment of his presidency though.

GLENN: Because of what he revealed? That we revealed on today's podcast. If you missed hour number one, get today's podcast. We introduce you to why he said that.

A gentleman named Niblick. Yeah. He's a Sherpa guide. That I think sometimes the president talks to in his head. So...

STU: This is a real problem for our country. I don't know if anyone realizes it. We can laugh about it all we want. But we are all in danger, in physical danger.

GLENN: Yeah. We really are.

STU: Of giant explosions going off in your town. That is what we're in danger of. Missiles flying over the polar ice caps, and landing on your city. That's what is at stake here.

GLENN: And you know what's crazy? They said, they felt that that could happen. That's why we had to get rid of Donald Trump, we have to get rid of him. Because he could get us into a war. This guy did get us into a war. He's already done that. And now he's talking up nuclear war. And he has no clue, as to what he was talking about. This was not funny on Friday when I saw that. My first reaction was, we're going to be vaporized. We're all going to be vaporized. And then today you laugh because you don't have -- I mean, we are all going to be vaporized, so we might as well go out laughing. But is there anybody that takes this seriously? Anyone. Anyone. Washington. Anybody. Raise a hand. Do I see a hand?

STU: This has to be constant dinner conversation around Washington. You go to any steakhouse in Washington, on Friday, at about 6:30 p.m. and every table is talking about how -- what do we do? Is this guy going to make it? Is he going to talk us into a war?

GLENN: I would like to know the plan. You know they have talked about it. So I would like to know the plan. Please, just share with us. If it ends up with George Soros, in the big -- just as I have foreseen. And he swivels around and he's in the Oval Office. Good. Just tell me. Just let me know. At least we can be prepared. I just don't -- we don't need anymore shocks. We just don't.

STU: I'm not sure how we prepare for that one, exactly. Especially you. Because I will say this to Mr. Soros who seems like a great guy, I never had anything to do with any of the things Glenn said about you. Why are you on the cover of Glenn's book The Great Reset? I don't know. I didn't design it. It was Glenn. All of this was Glenn. I stayed here.

GLENN: Just as I have foreseen. All your friends will abandon you.

STU: I stayed here the entire time, to work on the inside, to prove the truth about the wonderful man George Soros.

GLENN: By the way, we have a special, on Wednesday night. A serious look at the president's mental health. That is Wednesday night. The Wednesday night special.
