I saw the interview, and I thought it was interesting.
Beck was right on a few things, such as he overthinks. He really overthinks. In fact, he thinks himself into a corner and then can’t get out.
I think he also discovered that he thought his voice had more influence than it actually did.
I also think that he gave Tucker good advice on wanting fame for the sake of having fame.
Tucker doesn’t strike me as that type of person, however, whereas Megyn Kelly, for instance, does.
It also struck me that Beck realizes that people think he is a traitor. Perhaps a lot of people.
Good interview, Beck didn’t infuriate me as he normally does, and I was watching just waiting to be furious.
So, Glenn, I hope one day you are able to see where and when you got lost in the woods and then find your way out.

You nailed it very well.
Beck lied. He did say Cruz was anointed by God. (Didn’t Beck have a “ceremony” where he shook some chicken bones or something over Cruz to signify the anointing?)
Cruz’ father also said Teddy was anointed by God, IIRC.
The interview was good. Beck showed a touch of humility. He looked healthy. His perspective on life, politics, and fame has become logical. What I like about Tucker is that he isn’t there just to eviscerate his guest(s) — unless they deserve it. He’s truly interested in what they have to say. It seems the best compliment he gives them is “that was interesting”.
What you said, BUT
Tucker did Beck a YUGE favor by having him on his first prime time show. It allowed Beck to appear rational. (his face was not orange).
I’d be very careful if I were Tucker. I wouldn’t trust Beck for a second. Beck tried to schmooze Hannity, but luckily Hannity caught on fairly quickly.
Beck is POISON. Stay away!
There’s a lot of things I would associate with Glenn Beck but ‘overthinking’ isn’t exactly one that would come to mind, assuming that I get what you mean by it.
What I see is narcissism. An excessive need to appear important and to be the center of attention. And what better way to be important than to posture as a prophet and the arbiter of political morality
