Chapter 1: What backlash did Glenn face regarding Russian influence discussions?
All right, so best of today. We did three hours, three different topics. You're going to get the best parts of these in the best of here of this podcast. I talked about Alexander Dugan again because there's some new news on what's happening with Candace Owens today. Also kind of had a back and forth with Glenn Greenwald where I got a lot of heat from him.
people who like me about what i was saying i we needed to talk about that also a deep dive on data centers we'll give you the best of but if you really are concerned about data centers i want you to hear me out because there's a lot to talk about just the energy problem with data centers uh that you need to hear um and a couple that aborted their down syndrome baby we did an hour on this here's the best of

Chapter 2: How are rising electricity costs linked to AI data centers?
The bridge.
The bridge. Bridge to the USA. That's right. And don't think of that as the Russian people. Think of that as Putin and Dugin. Remember, Dugin is the guy who just said if it were up to him, he would give every enemy of ours nuclear weapons to vaporize the United States. He is not our friend. He is not our friend.
So the latest is Putin himself has just asked Candace Owens to speak today at this convention. So she's just gotten bumped up another level and she's thrilled about it. Okay, you think about whatever you want, but I have to speak to those who say, yes, but Dugan and Putin have it right about our culture. Our culture is evil, blah, blah, blah. I want you to think about the doctor.
And I just gave you two examples.
Chapter 3: What conditions should be met for new data centers?
One, somebody who diagnosed the pain and suffering that mental illness was causing in the United States and said, look, and everybody was like, they're right. These institutions are horrible and these people are suffering horribly and they're tearing themselves apart, blah, blah, blah. And so the doctor who was, I think he, didn't I say he got a Nobel prize for it?
A prize-winning doctor says, I have the solution. Ice pick to the eye. That's called a lobotomy. You can diagnose something and say, this is the problem, and be right. But that doesn't mean your solution is right. Then I told you about the temperance movement. Alcoholism. Trust me, I'm an alcoholic. I know how destructive it can be. My mother committed suicide. She was an alcoholic. I get it.
It destroys everything. It's horrible. Destroys families. That's what the temperance movement said. They diagnosed the problem correctly. People get out of control and it destroys families. But then they put in a constitutional amendment. And that started all kinds of stuff, including what I just told you. And look it up yourself. Most people don't know it.
Chapter 4: What is the story behind Jesse Ridgway's recent announcement?
The United States government started poisoning alcohol with bootleggers. Yeah, well, we'll show them how dangerous it is. They poisoned, they killed Americans knowingly. Those people should not have been anywhere. The cure was wrong. The diagnosis was right. Let me give you one more. 1958, halfway around the world, Mao. He's in China. People are starving.
And he makes a diagnosis that was correct right down to the single grain. He was saying, we have a problem with sparrows. They're eating the harvest. So a nation of hundreds of millions was mobilized to get rid of all of the sparrows. People banged pots and pans from dawn to dusk. The birds could never land until the sparrows just dropped out of the sky dead from exhaustion. This is a real story.
It worked. The sparrows all died. Then what happened?
Chapter 5: How does Glenn connect mental illness to cultural issues?
Then the locusts came. And because the sparrows had been eating the locusts, the insects ate everything in the fields. Bear. The famine that followed killed tens of millions more people, more than most wars in human history. Mal had the diagnosis right. The sparrows are the problem. But his cure buried a generation. Okay, so what am I, I mean, I could go on.
All of these things have one thing in common. These people were not cranks. They were not obvious monsters, a Nobel laureate, a constitutional amendment, a government. And the applause of the experts and the cheer of the crowd made the blade come down. That's the real test. The real test is, okay, he's right about the sickness, right? But what happens when he cuts into the body? What happens?
What happens after that first cut? Can it ever be undone? This is the test. True and correct diagnosis earns a man your attention. But it doesn't earn him the throat anymore. A person who can name your disease perfectly has proven that he can see. He has proven nothing about what's in his hand or where that hand will land or whether you'll be able to live with what's behind that hand.
So when somebody shows you exactly what's wrong with you, your body, your country, your culture, your faith, and then in the very same breaths reaches for the scalpel and says, lie down, stay still, trust me, I'm going to cut into you. Don't be hypnotized about how right he was about the wound. There's another hoop he has to jump through. And that's what's happening with Dugan.
People are saying, but Glenn, he's got the diagnosis right. Yes, I agree with you. Now listen and read what he actually says is the solution.

Chapter 6: What historical examples does Glenn use to illustrate his point?
That's the difference. Let me see. Let me go to Jeff in Arizona. Hello, Jeff. Welcome.
Hey, Glenn, I have a suggestion regarding Ron DeSantis, because I believe he's a man who can make the diagnosis, to use your analogy, and perform the operation successfully as he's done in Florida. I want to suggest that Ron DeSantis become the free agent governor and simply move to another state and save another state the way he has done in Florida.
I love you. I love you so much. I have said this, and I've said it jokingly and seriously, seriously to Ron DeSantis, and he just shakes his head. And I'm like, listen, you are so good. If you want to run for president, run for president. If you don't win president, go run in another state. Go save other states. Strengthen other states.
And, you know, he said one time we were talking, and he said, you know, I don't know how other states would feel about that. Stop with this carpetbagger stuff. We have to start looking at our states as needing a great CEO. We need somebody who can get it done, who can perform and knows how to run the apparatus of the state and get things done. That's Ron DeSantis.
And if I'm a state, if I'm California and I'm looking for the next governor, I'm looking for the best CEO, the best technician that can actually get the things done that need to get done. I don't need somebody that I like. I don't need somebody that has lived in my state the whole time. Well, he's not a Texan. He's not a Californian. He just moved here from Florida to Iowa.
Do you have anybody as good as him? If you do go, go vote for him. But if you don't, why wouldn't you take, I, I 100%, I think he should go on a 50 state tour. I think he should do, he's going to have to keep him alive for a while.

Chapter 7: What is Glenn's perspective on the future of American power generation?
Uh, but I would say that he needs to go and, uh, and run for office in another state. And when he has termed out there, go to another state because you're exactly right, Jeff, exactly right. Let me go to Tammy. By the way, it's Friday. Your calls are important. I want to hear your voice.
Anything I got wrong, anything you want to argue with me about, anything you think I missed, whatever, 888-727-BECK. Today is your day. Tammy in Georgia, welcome.
Hi, Glenn. You were talking about a candidate in New Jersey, and you were talking with somebody. I'm sorry, I'm really bad with names. That's okay, so am I. This guy... It was tied to Al Qaeda and terrorist groups and had something to do with 9-11. I want to know why these candidates are not being vetted the way I think they should be.
And how can we as a country let somebody or even the Congress or Senate, let somebody like that try to go to the Congress or Senate?
Well, because this is a free nation. Let me give you the extreme case. The mullahs in Iran, they're the ones who decide who can run and who can't. You never want that. You want the people to decide. You want just people to be able to walk off the street and say, I want to run. And then it requires then a good, decent, well-informed public using an honest press to
to do their own homework on those people and vet them and say, yeah, that guy does not fit. We don't want him representing. And that's just not happening right now. This guy should have been vetted by the people of New Jersey. And he is in one of these elitist districts. It's the 12th district of New Jersey. He provided testimony for the blind sheik

Chapter 8: How does Glenn emphasize the importance of family in personal happiness?
There were reports that he was involved in the planning of the first World Trade Center. He then went in to, where was it, Bosnia? Ricky, I don't have the information.
You're talking about Gaza, where he volunteered and served in Gaza in 2024. He actually served in the U.S. military for a time.
Right. And so, you know, you have to make your own decision, but he is somebody that should not get a national security clearance at the very least. You can't give him information. about our country. But, you know, if the Democrats win in the house and he wins in the house, he will be sitting in some of our most crucial things. And that's just the way this democracy works.
That's why, you know, we are doing it a torch. We're trying to teach American history. Do we have another episode of the American story coming out today? Should be nine.
We sure do. Insiders already have it. Everyone else is getting it tomorrow.
Okay, so episode nine, Inside the First Presidency, Power, Fear, and the Bill of Rights. This is perfect because next week we kick off our education program with the Bill of Rights. So we're telling you the story so you know our story. Any society that doesn't know their story will lose, will fall apart. It will disintegrate. Humans run on story.
If you know a story, if there's a good story that you're following, you can then understand things. You know how to make decisions because you know the story, where you came from, where you're going, why you were there in the first place, why you set off on this journey. If you lose that story, there's nothing. So the first thing we're doing is restoring the American story.
with the american story it's a podcast uh hour-long episodes there's uh nine of them right now but insiders i think you're going to have all 20 of them here shortly um uh and it takes you through the first you know uh hundred years of america's story and you'll really understand it in a way you never have then we have the bill of rights lessons they'll start next week.
These are actual lesson plans that you and your family can give. I mean, I don't care if you're 80. Most likely, if you're like me, I couldn't tell you the first five in the First Amendment. What are the first five rights? What are the five rights in the First Amendment?
