Joe Biden’s new FAIL, Fox News ratings PLUMMET, & deep space?!

Glenn and Stu play the clip, which shows a CHILD having a better memory than the president himself. Plus, in this clip the guys discuss Fox News’ DISASTROUS ratings since parting ways with Tucker Carlson, new developments from deep space, and their current fears with artificial intelligence (AI).

GLENN: Did you see that -- did you see that Joe Biden couldn't -- couldn't remember where he was just a couple of weeks ago, or a week ago?

STU: Can you remember where you were two weeks ago?

GLENN: Well, if I were in Ireland, maybe.

You know. Could you please play cut 17 for me?

STU: That was a long time ago.

GLENN: It was a whole week, Stu.

STU: Yeah. Too much.

VOICE: The last country I traveled. Thinking of the last one I did.

I met with 89 heads of states so far.

I'm trying to think, where was the last place I was, it's hard to keep track.

VOICE: Ireland!

BIDEN: I mean, yeah. You're right. Ireland.

GLENN: Okay? Like a 3-year-old remembers. Ireland! A 3-year-old.

He was like, uh-huh. He gets all creepy. That's right, little girl. How do you know that? Because I was watching you through your windows at night, creepy old man.

I mean, it's weird.

STU: Really weird.

GLENN: Really weird.

STU: Again, if it was six months ago, I mean, maybe.

GLENN: It was last week.

STU: Last week.

GLENN: I can't remember the last time -- it's like me saying I can't remember the last time I went potty. I don't know. Probably a couple hours ago.

Jeez.

And when did I go potty last? Well, you just did, in your pants.

STU: Did you see the comment from Jen Psaki. There's an article, I think it's Axios, about Biden's age.

And they were talking about, you know, how some people notice that he's 43,000 years old. And Jen Psaki, who is his press secretary. They highlighted comments about -- that she had about, what was it?

I think the banking crisis. Okay? You know this is a big announcement from Joe Biden.

Because he did it at 9:15. I feel like, wait. 9:15 a.m. Like, that's notable?

And then she said something like, we should get the exact quote. Like, yeah. He never does something before 9:00.

This is a person who is on his side. Now an MSNBC host, but it's a former press secretary saying.

GLENN: But they often say, he's done with the business of the day, by 9:30.

STU: Yeah. He had a 9:03 Lyft the other day, and he doesn't do anything before 9:00. That only gives him three minutes.

GLENN: But three minutes is an awful lot of time if you're president of the United States.

STU: I will say, that's too much time.

Because when he works, things get worse.

GLENN: Yeah. Well, you may be absolutely right on that.

But listen, he has experience.

Because he's so old. He has experience. If the dinosaurs ever come back, he'll remember maybe how they were fought.

And maybe he'll save us.

STU: Oh, yeah. So Jurassic Park situation plays out.

GLENN: And they are making woolly mammoths.

They're making woolly -- they're remaking. Can someone please watch a movie from time to time? We're doing all the things everything that we've all seen in huge movies. We're like, oh, well, we'd never do that. We're doing it.

STU: We're doing, especially the AI stuff.

We're just like, screw it. You know what, what are the odds? Let's just try all these things, and see what happens.

What are the odds, we make one minor mistake.

Very low. Right?

GLENN: Let's take some of that woolly mammoth DA, mix it with some frog DNA. Put it in an elephant. See what happens.

STU: And on top of that, let's try some gain of function research. Let's give that a whirl.

GLENN: You know what, it didn't work out in China. We should do it in Wisconsin.

Whoops, did you hear about that?

STU: Oh, they're trying to do it in Wisconsin now.

GLENN: No, no, no. There was a lab leak in Wisconsin. But they said -- and they never reported it. And they were like, well, nobody got sick.

You should report that right away. Where like, all right. Bill, I guess if weeping, open bloody sores open up. Give me a call, we'll let everybody know. What are we doing?

STU: That's incredible. We keep talking about it, like as if it's a past phenomena. Hey, they did it, in China.

It's still imagine there's been nothing that stopped it. The only thing that happened, we're focusing on it more.

So maybe there's a lesser chance that we directly fund it. Outside of that -- I think the word directly is key.

GLENN: No, no, no, no. We weren't directly funding it last time.

STU: Right. I think there was less of a chance we're doing it now. I think we'll stay the indirect route.

GLENN: Okay. I feel much, much better.

I don't know if anybody saw this, it's in our show prep today. If you get our show prep at GlennBeck.com. You'll get all the news that you need to know. And I'm kind of bypassing a lot of the news. Because it's Friday, right?

You know the world is on fire, why do I have to tell you?

Honestly, if you're not prepared at this point, what use -- what use is me saying, hey, by the way, have you seen the dollar crash even more?

No. There's no real reason for that. Just enjoy your way into insanity.

For those that are prepared. Let me tell you what they found with Deep Space. Now, listen to this.

Before I read this sentence. Can we just stop writing things in the news? And pretending that everyone knows.

You know, how like -- you know how like, when they were like, I can't think of any of the terms. All those terms. The woke terms, that came up.

Like what the hell is that word?

And everybody was writing it in their news articles. And we're like, I don't even know what that means.

STU: Yeah. When they introduce new language like that. That's often how it plays out.

GLENN: And things like, we're thinking in third grade now, your little girl can be a boy. And we're telling them that, and we're showing them what to do with all kinds of vegetables and their private parts.

STU: You mean gender-affirming care.

GLENN: Yes. Sorry. Sorry.

And you're like, wait. Am I the only one that doesn't know this?

No. No one knows this, except the experts.

And they're all pretending, oh, this has been going on for a long time.

Let me read this sentence. Thousands of deep space radio signals have made their way to earth.

50 of them are repeating sources.

Hold it. What?

Isn't that one of those things that we're looking for?

You know, the little space anomaly. It's like, help! And you're like, I think I heard help. But listen again. Anybody else calling for help?

Nope!

Okay. So that was just -- that was a weird thing that it sounded like somebody was crying for help.

Okay? We got that all the time. Repeating. Help. Did you just hear someone cry for help? Yep. I heard it again. Help!

Okay? When it repeats, that's something that we should probably know about it. Recently detected were 25 new repeating sources. Known technically as fast radio bursts from the depths of the universe. The project uses high-powered radio telescope in British Columbia. Oh, this is a Canadian study. Oh, forget it. Never mind.

All right. And Tucker Carlson.

STU: Oh, you just -- the entire country, you just blew off there?

GLENN: Well, have you seen what's going on in Canada?

STU: They did elect Trudeau.

GLENN: Yeah. So I'm not -- I'm not really sure, if we can take that.

Let me tell you about Tucker Carlson's video. This morning, he released it yesterday, or night before last.

72 million views. 72 million views.

I think that's a little higher than the ratings he had at Fox.

72 million. Now, that should give you great hope. Because that's not just the conservatives spreading that one around. That tells you, an awful lot. When you couple 72 million views, with what were the ratings?

Night before last, there, Stu?

STU: Gosh. I don't have the numbers in front of me. But they had dropped to the lowest level since 9/11.

GLENN: I'm sorry. What?

You mean this last September 11th?

STU: No. 9/11/2001. Yeah, we're going back to almost the '90s.

GLENN: Wow! They have not had ratings that low, since before 9/11.

STU: Yeah. Yes. Glenn, this will hit maybe not many people in the audience.

But will hit you.

GLENN: Hmm.

STU: The ratings on Fox News Channel. In the 8:00 p.m. time slot.

GLENN: Uh-huh.

STU: Were lower.

GLENN: Lower.

STU: Than our ratings at CNN Headline News.

Now, there --

GLENN: And only people that watched that, were people who were trapped in an airport!

They were trapped. They were like, I -- I guess I watched his show. It didn't have the sound on. So I really enjoyed it.

STU: Yeah. That --

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

STU: Jaw dropping.

GLENN: What was the number.

STU: It was in the 130s, I think, in the demo. Which is again, I think what they actually care about.

GLENN: In a country of 350 million people. One hundred -- 135 --

STU: Thousand, something like that --

GLENN: Let's just be fair, 140,000 people, between the ages of 25 and 54, were watching Fox News.

That's not good.

STU: Yeah. And I don't know who hosted it. I know the first night was Brian Kilmeade.

This is not Brian -- anti-Brian Kilmeade sentiment. They like Brian. They watch him every morning.

GLENN: I feel bad for Brian. Brian, when they called him up at Friday morning. They said, hey. You'll fill in for Tucker Carlson tonight.

He must have went, oh, good God, not me.

Why am I the one?

You're just testing out the guillotine. That's all you're doing. No problems.

STU: It's an impossible thing for Brian. But it's an amazing thing.

People are telling Fox news. Hey, this is not okay.

GLENN: There's a difference between a revival and an awakening. We are in a revival right now, but that doesn't necessarily lead to anything. Except, oh, I have to re-learn those principles. But that doesn't mean you apply them in your life. Okay?

That's an awakening. There's been two great awakenings in American history. One brought us the American Revolution. The second one brought us the Civil War and the freedom of slaves.

We have the possibility of going into a third great awakening. That's the only thing that will save us. If you don't know the difference between a revival and an awakening. Let me give you the negative print of a godly awakening. Our kids right now, they don't have any purpose. They don't have any meaning.

They look at everything, and it doesn't -- it's not real. None of it is real. It's money. It's fame.

It's -- you know, it's ever changing truths and definitions. And they have no purpose in their life. Okay?

So they're looking for that. Because man has to have purpose in his life. Man has to search for meaning.

So they're searching for meaning. And they found a group of people that actually mean something. And they're willing to die for it. And it's ISIS.

And so they're like, at least these people believe in something. They believe it. And they're willing to die for it. I'm going to stand with them. And they put that twisted understanding into action. That's the -- that is -- that's an awakening. It's just an awakening to the dark side. And that one is already happening. It has to happen on the good side. And let me speak directly to young men: Look, you are inheriting a very loud, angry, cynical and worst of all spiritually starving and malnourished society. And you are being sold a future of cheap pleasures and hollow heroes and screens with blue light that just rob you of your strength, one distracted second after another.

And in the middle of all that noise, may I just give you one piece of instruction. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, of good report or praise-worthy, seek those things.

Don't admire them. Don't nod at them. Seek them!

Hunt them. Chase them. Build your life around those things. A man who will do that. A boy. A young man who will do that, will become different. Noticeably different.

He will stop letting the culture feed him garbage. He stops applauding the trivial. He stops laughing at the obscene or cheering for the cruel.

He will become a curator of -- of real, lasting beauty in an age that has forgotten what beauty even looks like.

When other men are chasing down or holding up cynicism, this man holds up hope!

When everyone around him is chasing dopamine, he chooses discipline. When others will blame their circumstance, he'll take responsibility for his own action. When the world worships the shallow, he goes and searches for the deep!

You want to know what the secret of becoming strong is, or becoming trusted, or becoming the kind of man that your future wife, your future children, your future nation can depend on?

Here it is!

You become what you seek. If you seek trash, you become trash. If you seek virtue, you become a man of virtue. You seek excellence, and your life will begin to shine, not loudly, but steadily. Like the steel glow of a blade being forged.

That's who you'll be.

The world has a plentiful, seemingly never-ending supply of angry boys. We don't need any more addicted boys.

We don't need any more distracted boys. The world needs men. Whole men. Clear-eyed men.

Men whose souls are anchored to something higher than the algorithms, trying to own them!

Build a life worthy of admiration. Forget about the applause. Fill your mind with words that make you wiser. Fill your days with work, hard work, that makes you stronger. Fill your home with beauty that lifts every soul who walks into it.

Have your home a place where people walk in and go, man, I say so great here. I just love it here. I don't know what it is about your house. I just love it. It's the spirit that's there! Because you built it! You protect it.

Protect your integrity like a watchman on the wall. Don't lie. Don't cheat. Don't steal. And when you fail, and you will, stand back up again.

Because a man who seeks the virtuous, is not a man who never fails. He just -- he just becomes a man who refuses to stay on the ground.

If you seek things that are lovely and pure, trustworthy, praiseworthy, you'll become a kind of man this age almost never produces. A man whose very existence is a rebuke to the darkness.

That's your calling. That's why you were born.

Not to be lost. Not to play video games. Not to give up. Not to say, there's no hope. Not to end up in the trash bin of human history because you've -- you've taken so many drugs, you can't stand up straight anymore.

You're not destined to be alone.

You were destined for great things. You are destined to find an amazing woman!

Believe me. I didn't think I would ever find an amazing woman. Because I didn't think I was worth it. I didn't think I was worth it.

And until I started understanding how God works. That, yeah. I'm not worth any of the stuff that I have.

When you realize, it's all a gift. It's all a gift. And even if you work your brains out, you may not ever get all the things that you want. But you're going to have everything you need. Once you realize, carefully selecting friends makes a difference. My mother used to always say, show me your friends. I will show you your future.

It's true. Be careful who you select as friends. Watch your language. Watch what you're putting into your brain and what's coming out of your mouth. Because the brain is so amazing. It's being turned to mush. Did you know that there is a new study that just came out. I have to tell you about it next week, maybe.

New study going out. It is -- it's AI. And it has access to social media, and they have found that the AI -- the AI that is scrolling through social media all day, just to keep updated on everything that's going on in social media. It's getting brain mush. It's actually becoming dumber. It's become less effective!

It's a machine. What do you think this, flesh and blood, this thing is going to do?

We say life is meaningless. And life is the only thing that has any value. And yet, we spend all of our time, on things like social media. And that has absolutely no value.

But we think that's life.

I'm not that smart. I've just lived a long time. And I've made so many mistakes.

And I decided at one point, I'm going to stop saying, it's somebody else's fault. I'm going to start saying. Maybe -- what did I do to create that?

What did I do to attract that?

Why does this thing keep happening to me?

Why is it that I always find myself involved with these same kind of people?

Because, Glenn, dummy, it's you!

What you think, it's like -- it's like think of yourself as a -- as a beacon. It's just -- you're a beacon. Your GPS pin, that is constantly saying, here I am. Here I am. Here I am.

Except, it's transmitting more than just your location. It's -- it's transmitting what you're looking for, who you are. And it's attracting other dropped pins to you. It's saying, "I like this. I think this way. I believe these things. I am afraid of these things."

Whatever it is, you're thinking. It's constantly putting that out.

And saying, here I am. Is there anything else like that?

Anything else that can reinforce that? Anything else that can live like this?

Because that's me. Here I am. Here I am. Here I am.

That's why you keep finding yourself in exactly the same situations. Nothing will change, if nothing changes!

And the only thing that you can change, is you!

Seek the things, that have virtue.

Seek the things, that have beauty in music, in -- in art, in life, in architecture, in clothing! Whatever it is. Look for real, lasting beauty and value.

Find the things that are true! Truly true.

Universally true. Find the things that uplift. Seek those things!

And you will change your life and your world!
