Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Wow, it's Friday, and what a wild, wild ride we had. So much that you really need to understand. We talk a little bit more about what is happening with propaganda. There's some really dangerous propaganda going on right now, and if you're aware of it, you can avoid it. But don't separate yourself from one another. They're trying to get us to hate one another because that's their only way to win.
Also, some good news about the war in Iran. And that's why oil was down to $86 a barrel instantly during our show today. We also told you some news about farmers that most people are not aware of. And this is a really specific and important warning on what is happening with our farmers and our food. Please pay attention to that. Also, Billy Hollowell joins us.
We talk about space, a lot of space talk today, telling you about this war in space that you don't know about. And then I brought Billy Hollowell in, and that's part of this segment on the best of of today's show. Billy talks about the spiritual possibilities of space. Angels, Demons, and Aliens. It's a fascinating conversation. And one of our own, Savannah Hernandez, she works for TPUSA.
She just documents what's happening at these riots or these rallies. She was up in Minnesota, was significantly injured by the crowd and Wait until you hear her story, and it's one that you really need to pay attention to. She has a concussion, and she's coming back to work.
But for the first time, and she's done this for a long time, for the first time, she is afraid to stand in a crowd of people on the left. And I would ask that you pray for her, pray for the farmers, and listen to today's podcast. Here it is. Relief factor. Every family has that one person who thinks they're, you know, practically a doctor because they once watched a medical drug drama.
You know what I mean? Hey, I watched the pit and that's much, much more accurate. Okay. All right. Probably, probably not. I mean, you haven't touched a treadmill since 2004 and you look like a corn dog. Then there are people that swear they can, you know, fix you with ancient, you know, ancient stretches from YouTube.

Chapter 2: What warning does Glenn give about American farms?

Chapter 3: What does Billy Hallowell say about the spiritual implications of space?
I want to talk to you about, um, a grand conspiracy. Um, And what we found out about the impeachment process and how they are now trying to expunge it. And the evidence is so clear it should be expunged. Will it be? No, because it will become about partisan politics. But it should be. But we'll follow that. I also want to talk to you about something else.
I want to talk to you about the farmers in America. I want you to pray for our farmers.
Chapter 4: What experiences did Savanah Hernandez share from her reporting?
You know... I think we lost a lot of who we were when we moved off the farms. You know, when you live on a farm, you don't have to explain sex to your kids because what is that cow doing to that cow? I mean, it's pretty clear. It is pretty clear. Everything makes sense. The circle of life makes sense.
You know, you're facing death a lot all the time because you're seeing the circle of life with your animals. You understand that you can do absolutely everything right and still fail because it didn't rain. Something happened. Your crop can go out and your neighbor's crop can be fine. That teaches you compassion. That teaches you, hey, love your neighbor.
You really need to help your neighbor out because you know what? There's going to come a time where your crop fails and theirs is doing fine. And so help each other. We've lost so much because we've lost the connection to our farms and our farmlands. And I think that's when America really started to hurt and really significantly change.
And now we're living in a time where nobody knows where their food even comes from. We don't even know it's real anymore when it comes to our food. But right now, there are farmers that are firing up their tractors and heading out into the fields for spring planting. And a monster drought has swallowed 60% of the lower 48 states. You haven't heard about this, but it is true.
The NOAA maps don't lie. The South is baked sugarcane, rice, peanuts, fruit trees, choking under severe, extreme, and even exceptional drought. Out in the plains, where that's our bread basket, winter wheat is sitting in dust. It can't germinate because it doesn't have the water. In the west, the mountain snowpack is vanishing before our eyes. I mean, I am shocked. I'm here in the mountain west.
We normally have snow up on the mountains all around me. We don't have snow. I mean, we have some in really high elevations, but usually on the mountain right behind my ranch, we have snow up there at this time. It snowed yesterday, but nothing stuck because it's too warm. So you don't have that... And now, at least here in Idaho, cutbacks on water are already being talked about.
They're being ordered along the Colorado River in Washington State, the Yakima Basin, which has a lot of our food up there. And ranchers are staring at pastures now that they won't grow. The pastures are, the cattle herd is already the smallest it's been since the 1950s. And it's not happening in a vacuum.
farmers have been hammered for years for the skyrocketing fertilizer prices that happened, remember, after COVID? Diesel costs that have taken their profit margin and just squeezed everything out of it. Supply chain chaos. One hit after another hit after another hit has kept these guys barely hanging on. And now we have another fertilizer hit. And now pile the drought on top of that.
The math is brutal. Math is math. Food costs are going up, and not a little, a lot. Beef, grains, produce, everything that comes from the fields all across our fruited plain, it's going to cost more at the grocery store, and it's coming sooner and faster than most people want to even admit.

Chapter 5: How is the community reacting to the violence against journalists?
And I do not want revolution. You want to be like Haiti? Hey, let's have a revolution. It would be very bad, very bad. But that's what you're headed for, politicians. That's what you're headed for. You've got to restore trust. You must do the right thing. And screw the next election. Do the right thing. You will lose in the next election because people don't trust you anymore.
Do something that can help us regain our trust. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. And don't forget, rate us on iTunes. We're just dealing with some breaking news.
Chapter 6: What are the implications of the current political climate on safety?
And I want to give you an update before we get to Billy Hollowell because we're going to talk about ETs and UFOs and going back into space. What are these things? We'll do that here in just a second because it is Friday. We can relax a little bit. And I have good news.
Jason, can you bring me up to speed the latest from the Trump administration on the ceasefire and the full opening of the Strait of Hormuz? Oil is just cratering. It's down to $83 a barrel right now in this news. Go ahead.
So this is coming directly from the Iranian foreign minister who has just announced that because of the Lebanon ceasefire that was negotiated, that we pushed for that to happen, the Strait of Hormuz is now officially reopened as per them.
President Trump put out on True Social that he confirms that it's completely open and ready for business, but our naval blockade will remain until such time as our transaction with Iran is 100% complete. You have a problem with the word transaction. We were just talking about this with the insiders a minute ago. Explain your problem with the word transaction.
To me, it just sounded kind of an odd way to phrase it, but I know that they have talked about potentially, this is not for sure, but potentially we might be looking, or the Iranians want us to purchase the uranium that they have enriched. So I don't know if that's even on the table, but I know that's a rumor. Okay. Sounds like a really bad idea.
We've just kind of war-gamed this out during the commercial break. You were an insider. You heard that. I'm going to try to shoehorn this in because I think it's a really important discussion. I'm going to try to shoehorn that in later on in the program today. We also have to take your phone calls. We have just a lot to cover today. So thank you for being an insider at GlennBeck.com.
You get all the extra stuff. I want to try to come back to this. If not today, we will be back on this on Monday. Some, some really important news, but I have Billy Hollowell who I asked to come back. He was with us. Was it the beginning of the week, Billy, or was it last week that you were on? And we were talking about, it was last Friday.
We were talking about your show investigating the supernatural miracles. Um, and we, we didn't get a chance to get to, um, aliens, you know, and this whole thing about extraterrestrial and the insiders, when you were on, they all wanted me to ask you about this and we just ran out of time.
So I wanted to have you back because there is this debate, not only are aliens real, but they're now there's this other debate that I'm not really engaged on. And I'd love to have you explain it, that these are not that if you're from another planet, this way, I understand it. I could be wrong. If you're from another planet, you're not part of God's plan. You're a demon.

Chapter 7: What is the significance of the current drought affecting farmers?
human women mated with them and made these giants. And that's why one of the reasons why the, why God destroyed everything with you know, mankind in the flood, because we had, we had augmented ourself with these things. You're saying that they didn't go away, that this might be the explanation for what we're seeing.
So, yeah, and here's the thing that gets so wild, because this sounds science fiction and it sounds crazy, but this is what the book of Enoch says. Now, the Bible talks about, and again, Genesis 6, it does talk about this. So it was the fallen angels who came down, according to Enoch, and mated with human women and produced the Nephilim. So these Nephilim are then wiped out in the flood.
As you said, they're doing all these things that God hates. They're wiped out in the flood, and they have been seeking a body ever since. That is one theory of what demons are. And that's why when you ask the question, well, aren't angels bodied, right? They can have a body. They can show up in physical form. What's interesting about the alien discussion is you could make either argument here.
You could say, well, are fallen angels not really necessarily demons that can possess people, but are they the aliens that are walking around physically manifesting as this thing, right? And so this is such a – it's such a complicated discussion, but I think the key thing in pulling back is – If there aren't aliens from other planets, then what are people experiencing?
And it seems that many would say in the Christian realm, they're actually experiencing a spiritual battle that's pouring over these spiritual creatures that are demonic, right? Whether you think they're Nephilim or fallen angels, they're part of the realm of darkness, and they're convincing people that there's something else. And then the big question is, well, why would they do that?
Is there a deception here? If the whole world is believing in aliens, what does that mean?
Is there a deception here that seems like such a crazy question to ask?
Of course there is. Of course there is. That's the whole point of the dark side is deception. A hundred percent. Yep. Yeah. I, you know, when you explain it this way, to me, that makes sense. You know... Tucker Carlson came out, what, a year ago and said he experienced a demon in the middle of the night, and he said, I had claw marks on my back that my wife saw the next day.
You know, I think we are in a battle of good and evil, and we have to be really, really, really careful right now. Even the very elect will be lost at this time.

Chapter 8: How are rising food costs impacting American consumers?
Yeah, I was standing with the other. I made a point as well to stand next to all of the other left-wing streamers so people knew that I was with the press. I ended up standing off to the side by myself to upload a clip.
And then William Scott Kelly, who was the same person who was previously arrested for storming the church in Minneapolis that left children crying and terrified after their Sunday service shut down. He came up to me and he identified me and started screaming at me and saying, I work with Turning Point USA and basically just started screaming at me very aggressively.
At that point, I was like, well, let me try to defuse the situation. A mob starts forming around me and I'm like, well, I guess if we're having a conversation, why is this important to you? And at that point, I just started asking, again, very neutral, basic questions. These protesters kept trying to turn it on me, like, well, what's your thoughts on this? And I was like, this isn't about me.
I'm here for you guys. I'm not here to counter-protest you. I'm here to cover this for news purposes. It didn't matter. Paige and Dionne Ostruchko were the first two to come up to me. This ended up being a whole family. So the man that attacked me was the father. The mother first came up to me, Deanna, and she was very aggressively shoving me, getting in my face, screaming at me.
And then her husband comes and body checks me from behind and starts screaming in my ear. At this point, I'm like just trying to defuse and deescalate. Paige tries to come up to me and tells me to get the F out. And I was like, I have a right to be here. I'm on a public street. You can't tell me that I can't be here. And I'm also doing nothing to you guys.
And at multiple points, I tried to walk away from them. They followed me every single time. And then as I'm trying to leave, And me leaving ends with the daughter, Paige, violently throwing me to the ground. The mom then coming up to me and saying that I hit her daughter and trying to charge me. And then as I'm trying to leave and I have my back turned, basically saying, don't touch me.
The father, Chris, who, again, three times my size, comes and slams me down to the ground. And the first thing I see when I stand up is Paige in my face again. At that point, I'm like, OK, I got to get out of here. And so I'm trying to, like, push my way out, get out. And then Paige and her mother then tackle me. And by the way, Glenn, these people aren't the smartest. All of this is on camera.
There's another angle of Chris instructing his daughter to come up to me and blow the whistle in my effing ear. And then you have Dionne Ostrich go on camera laughing about how she came and tackled me and ran away before the police could come.
I have to tell you, there is a puff piece about this guy in the Minneapolis Star, I think, where he actually came out and he said, I'm not the rah-rah, get in your face, yelling and screaming type of person. I avoid trouble. Even though I look like a person that may like to fight or something, that's really not me. I have to say that's not what I see on videotape.
