It appears the voices of millions upset by Apple Podcast’s decision to remove the Glenn Beck Program, in its entirety, was enough for the platform to reverse their decision.
Late Wednesday, Beck tweeted that his program had been restored, but questions still remained.
Looks like Apple restored my 3000+ episodes to their platform but still don’t have clear answers as to why this happened. Hope to have an update for you tomorrow on radio.

“Looks like Apple restored my 3000+ episodes to their platform but still don’t have clear answers as to why this happened. Hope to have an update for you tomorrow on radio,” Beck wrote.
“I want to thank everyone (on the left, right and everyone in between) who spoke up today. I wish I had better answers from Apple on what happened, but you gave me hope that the issue of censorship is still bigger than politics,” he added.
