The Glenn Beck Program

Glenn discusses one of the biggest debates from his time off: the cost of burritos. Have burrito prices gotten out of hand?

Glenn reacts to a statement by Vice President JD Vance in which he invoked Depression-era populist governor Huey Long. Glenn also goes through the controversial history of Huey Long.

Glenn brings on Jason to share recent statistics showing Iran is losing this conflict. Sports columnist Matt Calkins joins to discuss how he resigned from the Seattle Times after it blocked his piece regarding protecting women’s sports. Patrick Bet-David, Valuetainment founder and host of “The PBD Podcast,” joins to discuss what you can expect at the Vault 26 conference.
