Chapter 3: What does Glenn mean by 'right' and 'almost right'?
I am. I find myself in a weird position. I have done radio for 40. This is my 49th year. Next year will be my 50th year of broadcast. And, you know, I did it for, you know, when I was, you know, teenage years, I did it for the chicks, which never really showed up. That didn't happen.
I did it for the fame and the funny and the fortune and whatever that showed up temporarily and just was so meaningless and so empty. I found my purpose in drink. And then I decided to do a radio show, talk radio, and I was going to parody talk radio. And 9-11 happened, and everything on this show changed. I mean, the show used to be very, very funny.
And in some ways, I wish it still was as funny as it used to be. But the world just changed, and it just got so darn serious. And so I started doing what I thought was right.
Chapter 4: What historical context does Glenn provide about the Islamization of the West?
And that was telling you what's right, what's wrong. And I became, honestly, in some ways, I became the guy that I wanted to parody. You know, the talk radio host was like, I know everything because I'm the smartest guy alive. And everybody on talk radio does that. It's hard not to fall into that.
because this job requires you to have enough of an ego to say, this is the way it is, and actually believe it and back it up. But also, somehow or another, keep that humility that, no, I don't really know what I'm talking about. I'm guessing, like everybody else, I might have a better guess than everybody else, but I don't know anything.
And so I find myself today looking at a landscape, and I'm going to talk about this next hour, looking at a landscape where our podcasters are all taking each other on, and I don't understand it. And I do understand that some people are very right, in my opinion. Some people are very wrong, in my opinion.
But I just wish people would stop tearing each other apart, because that's not helpful at all, at all. And it's not going to change anybody's mind. I know because I've tried it before and it doesn't work. It only just makes us into a smaller and smaller community. We have to talk about principles and what we are for instead of who we're against or who's our enemy today.
And I'm going to get into something that I heard this weekend, next hour, that is really important, not for the podcasters or for the broadcasters, but For you, because we all have a responsibility. For the first time in human history, people have always had audiences. You've been in Shakespeare at the Globe Theater, and Shakespeare had an audience.

Chapter 5: How does Glenn emphasize the importance of truth in today's media landscape?
He had to come to the theater, but he had an audience. But for the first time in human history, audiences have an audience. In your pocket, whether it is five followers or five million followers, you have an audience. And so they put you in a place where you have real responsibility, especially at times like today. You don't just repost things without thinking. And I know it's really tempting.
And you can say, well, I don't know what's true. Well, if you don't know it's true, then you shouldn't post it. Or you should post it with, can anyone verify this? I mean, at the very least, can anyone verify this? And if they can't, if, you know, I heard that, no, I have a source that told me, then you shouldn't be posting it, okay? It's an opinion. And, you know, when the war...
broke out with Iran. I was watching the news all weekend long, and I'm trying to get an update on things. And I kept hearing these people from both sides of the argument yelling at each other and each saying that they were right. And, you know, this war is going to turn into a massive massacre for everybody, you know, in the Middle East. It's going to massacre of everybody in the United States.
And I thought, neither of you know.
Chapter 6: What principles does Glenn suggest for navigating today's complex issues?
You don't know. You don't know this. Where are the facts? Can you just give me facts, please? Those aren't popular. Opinions are popular. And opinions without principles. You know... Most people never choose evil. They never choose evil. Not knowingly. Most. I mean, some do, but most don't.
People get lost and they find themselves surrounded by evil because the real choice in life is between right and almost right. Almost right is You can pick, and that almost right could be picked even consciously. You can go like, yeah, but that one's a little easier, so I'm going to pick that one. And so you might do it for your own comfort, for your own ease.
You don't want to be a hardliner or whatever it is, but you'll choose almost right. And if you keep choosing almost right, before you know it, you're standing in a place where
Chapter 7: What recent events highlight security concerns in America?
that you're surrounded by evil. And you're like, how did I get here? Well, because you kept choosing almost right instead of right. Wrong has an odor to it. Wrong leaves fingerprints. Wrong will set off an alarm bell in your soul. Almost right just slips in wearing the clothes of justice or patriotism or compassion, security, faith, or common sense. almost right.
It says, relax, we're on the same side. But 10 almost right decisions later, and you're standing with people who do not share your principles, only your grievance. And so you're left standing there without a compass. And you're like, I don't know. I don't even know how to do the truth. I don't know how to, how do I even find the truth? How do I know what the truth is?
May I give you some, some principles that you can Use as a compass. Truth before tribe. Truth before tribe. Means you don't lie for your side.
Chapter 8: How does Glenn connect personal responsibility to the current societal climate?
You don't trim the facts for your side. You don't just leave some important details out for your side. You don't pretend, you know, not to know what you know because the other team might benefit. Truth before tribe. Really important. Number two, human dignity before ideology. That means you don't ever turn people into abstractions.
You know, whether they're Jews or Arabs or immigrants or protesters or soldiers or political opponents, talk radio hosts, whoever it is. We have to start looking at people as individuals, human dignity over ideology. Liberty, number three, liberty under law. That means freedom never comes from mob permission, ever. It is ordered, ordered freedom, restrained by principle and law.
Equal justice means your enemy gets due process too. This one is so hard, and this is one that is going to come into play in 2006, or sorry, 2026, maybe 2028, because people think an injustice is done, and they're just going after. So we're going to have trials. Okay, well, be very careful on what you're doing today.
Equal justice means your enemy gets due process too, because if it disappears from him today, it will not be there for you tomorrow. Here's one that I think people are having a hard time with on both sides. National loyalty without state worship. What does that mean? I love my country, but I don't worship it. I love it. And because I love it, I recognize it can go wrong quickly.
And so I love my country enough to tell the truth about my country, not just to drag it around in the streets, but to tell the truth in hopes that that there is a way to fix it, not just to bitch about it, but to motivate people to take the steps to fix it. So we're not that country. Next principle, moral clarity without dehumanization. It means there is good and evil.
But let's be careful when we name evil, that we don't dehumanize people. You can call it out by name, but don't become infected by it. Don't become everything you despise. Here's one that I think so many people miss, especially in my business currently. Free speech with accountability. You have the right to speak. You have the right to question.
You have the right to say things that I really am dead set against. But you don't get to escape the moral judgment for reckless speech or dishonest speech or speech that is just meant to inflame instead of illuminate. And we need to figure out how to tell the difference between illumination
and inflaming speech because there's a lot of speech that happens now they're just trying to get you to react because if you react they become bigger they control the narrative and it's hard not to react it's really hard but stop it it's meant to inflame don't don't don't become the gasoline or the match that they want you to be power Must always expect scrutiny.
Because every institution lies to itself sooner or later. And same with people. You must... I expect it. I don't like it. I expect scrutiny. And I do want to know what people who are honest are saying about where I got it wrong. Because... It's easy for me or you or anybody else to grow arrogant. It's really easy for me to grow arrogant and say, I don't know what they're talking about.
