Ep 291 | Is Big Tech Already Bending the Knee to Democrats? Palantir Co-founder Responds | The Glenn Beck Podcast
The tech world is at a crossroads with Democrats back in power: Will they bend the knee to socialists on issues like AI, censorship, and surveillance? Or will they continue to stay independent? And can America still win the AI race against China after the Nvidia scandal? To answer these questions, Glenn speaks with Joe Lonsdale, the co-founder of the tech company Palantir. Its CEO just called its products “progressive” and himself a lifelong Democrat. But Lonsdale, an outspoken conservative, has a surprising response. Glenn and Joe also discuss the future of the AI and robotics revolution, how to fix the Republican Party and take back Texas, and why he’s optimistic about the future of America. Plus, Joe has some choice words about the Iran war, illegal immigration, and rumors of amnesty.

Glenn Has THESE Questions About the Nvidia Scandal’s Weird Timing | Guest: Carol Roth | 11/12/26
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has officially resigned from the company after Nvidia’s board launched an investigation into Huang for allegedly having inappropriate affairs with two women, one of whom is suspected by U.S. intelligence officials of working with China. If you have investments in Nvidia, especially in your 401(k), you may want to take a seat, as Nvidia stock plummeted another 10 points. Glenn looks to veterans as the shining example of courage: doing what is right even in the face of pure fear. Younger generations are developing a disdain for landlords, but Glenn explains how the housing crisis was caused by the Federal Reserve’s cheap money and local zoning rules that block new construction. Glenn discusses the growth of this program across all platforms since he launched Torch, and he takes a moment to thank his audience. Former investment banker Carol Roth joins to discuss what she describes as one of the biggest corporate scandals of her lifetime after Nvidia’s CEO stepped down for allegedly sleeping with a Chinese spy.

Why DC Studios’ Latest Move Is a GREAT Sign for America | Guest: Jack Carr | 11/11/26
For the first time in 14 years, Spain has shut down, just in time for its upcoming election. And Spain isn't the only country in Europe experiencing something like this. According to protesters, affordability is the leading cause of the unrest. But Glenn breaks down what he believes is the true leading cause of all the chaos, which is far more terrifying than an unscripted uprising. Glenn further breaks down what CNN's Van Jones' recent admission actually means and how Democrats manipulated the affordability crisis to sell Americans a lie. "The Terminal List" author and series executive producer Jack Carr joins to discuss why this series resonates with audiences. Glenn discusses the concept of an "almost man," somebody who is just coasting through life and doing just enough, not living up to his full potential to do good. Glenn reacts to some of the more recent disturbing responses to the assassination of Charlie Kirk, from the likes of Jennifer Welch and Dave Chappelle. But in a silver lining, Glenn also discusses the recent James Gunn shake-up at DC Studios that may signal a culture change. Glenn explains the dangers of weaponizing the legal system against people because of their politics.

Glenn calls out Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) for pushing for an impeachment of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth on what he believes is a weak basis, based on a difference of opinion, not evidence of actual wrongdoing. Is this just a personal vendetta, as Massie is set to leave Congress in January? Glenn calls out Senate Republicans for rushing to re-elect Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.) as leader, showing they have learned nothing from the massive midterm loss they endured.

What Everyone Is Missing About Trump’s Illegal Immigrant Amnesty Comments | 11/9/26
Glenn compares two statements that had the entire country talking: President Trump's statement on "60 Minutes" regarding his faith and being unable to forgive his enemies and Dave Chappelle's controversial statement regarding the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Both political parties are racing to punish their political opponents, but Glenn explains that history shows weaponizing the law against political speech has never worked as people hope. Glenn discusses the Left's goal of going after Elon Musk and warns that this kind of political revenge risks American innovation, scares off builders, and invites the other side to do the same. Glenn reacts to President Trump's remarks regarding illegal immigration during an interview with CBS' "60 Minutes." Is Trump getting ready to implement full amnesty for some illegal immigrants? Glenn shares the story of two young children, a coat, and how one act of kindness can impact someone's entire life. Did this prominent Democrat admit that Americans were conned? Glenn reacts to CNN's Van Jones, who stated that Democrat operatives coordinated tens of thousands of people through the American Accountability Network to amplify their unaffordability message across social media.
