What is Glenn Beck’s opening warning to pastors and faith leaders?
Today on the podcast, the message that every pastor, priest, rabbi, every Christian, everyone who believes in the God of Іно Абрагам, Азик, і Жакоб недстагір. Every single one. What pastors are not warning about and not doing. Also the shadow test. This is Crazy. The converse controversy, have you heard this? Oh my gosh, look at the converse ad. It's a lynching. No, it's I'll explain. Also Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift. Why? Because culture matters and Taylor Swift just threw a giant stone in a very still pond. You know, there's a certain kind of confidence that only parents have. You walk into a bedroom, you take one look at your kid and go, Yeah, he's getting sick. You don't need a thermometer, you don't need a doctor, you just know, right?
Unfortunately, knowing they're about to get sick is the easy part. The hard part is discovering that half the town has the same bug. The pharmacy is out of the medication they need. And now you're driving all over town hoping somebody has it in stock. That's why I advise You prepare before the first cough starts. The Kids Case from JES Medical provides physician prescribed emergency medications and antibiotics designed specifically for your children.
So when a school germ makes their annual appearance, you're not scrambling to find out, you know what your family needs.

You're listening to. The best of the Glenn Beck program.
Alright, now I want you to listen to this is the craziest damn thing I've read in a lot of it a while. Young woman. Standing in a long white shirt a skirt. Her name is Karina. She's one of the biggest pop stars in in Korea. She's holding a pair of black converse high tops. Above her. A spotlight. And the spotlight is cut.
Into the shape of the converse star. How could you find anything? Controversial about this. Don't worry. You live in America. Somebody found me.
That's the ad. That's the whole ad. Went up September third. For two weeks, millions of people saw it, nobody said a word, nobody had a problem with it. But you didn't have enough time on your hands. You probably have a life. There's somebody out there without a life at all who is like, I'm gonna find something about this. Everybody else saw a girl and shoes. But then somebody with absolutely no life studied the lighting. And the edge of that star I told you about was It fell across her skirt and made a white triangle. And somebody decided that triangle looked exactly like a clan hood. And the shoes that she was holding into her hand right next to that clan hood, which wasn't a clan hood, it was a spotlight triangle shadow.
Those shoes she was holding next to it looked like she was it was It's the feet of a lynching victim. So we have a Korean pop star. A sneaker? And a spotlight. Ho man. Right. You know, we used to say that evil hides in the shadows. We don't look at the shadows anymore. We don't we don't look into the shadows. We look at the shadows now. Okay, we pull them up into the light and we interrogate the actual shadow, not what's lurking in the shadows. Within hours, the machine was running. Fire the staff, boycott the company. A sitting congressman, Troy Carter of Louisiana, said, I want an apology. In fact, an apology isn't enough. He wants Nike and Converse to name those responsible and a commission an independent investigation over a shadow.
Pardon me for a second. Dear Lord. Seriously. Take me now. Just take me and Now Cause I don't know how much more I can do of this. I really don't. Sign Glenn. Love you. All right, back to the show. Then a civil rights attorney named Lee Merritt said, You know, we keep having this conversation because corporations keep failing the same test. I really wanna know, Lee. What test? What t the shadow test? What test? You took a photograph, you cropped it, if you squint the right way, and you ask one question.
