“The Glenn Beck Program,” which airs free of outside influence or censorship on BlazeTV, appears to have been deplatformed by Apple Podcasts. In addition to being prevented from going live with his latest episode, all of the show’s previous podcasts have been removed.
The host of the program, nationally syndicated radio host and Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck, indicated that the Apple Podcasts Team notified him early Wednesday afternoon that his show had been removed after they had “found an issue with [his show] … which must be resolved before it’s available on Apple Podcasts.”

“I have a feeling these ‘issues’ with @Apple and others will keep happening the more we’re over the target,” wrote Beck. In a corresponding video, Beck expressed confusion about what “they’re basing this one on,” noting that there had been no warning or strikes.”
The episode the corporate giant appeared keen to preclude from going out to millions of listeners was entitled, “Trump vs. Biden: Which is the Crime Family?”
