00:15 - 00:19 Robbie 'The Fire' Bernstein

I'm doing well, Davey Smith. How was battling everyone on Piers Morgan?

0

00:20 - 00:42 Dave Smith

It was, well, you know, it wasn't too much of a battle this time. Although I was on the panel with three ladies, which I specifically request to never do. but yet they still put me on there with a bunch... I was like, talking politics with women? It's just ridiculous. No, but so I think it was mostly...

0

00:43 - 01:14 Dave Smith

It was mostly kind of like a three-on-one with Julie Rogowski, I think I'm saying her name right, being the one Democrat there. So I was on with Batya and Riley Gaines, who was the female, the swimmer, yes, who became famous for opposing trans women. uh men competing with women or i'm sorry trans women competing with what she's she opposed

0

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

Human beings with penises competing with human beings with vaginas. I'm sorry. It's hard to remember all the terminology. But anyway, it was an interesting panel. We talked about a few of the things that we will probably get into on today's show. But yeah, that should be out. That should be out. So anyway, that's the reason we're starting a few minutes late.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

Before we get into the show quickly, do want to remind you that we're coming up on, I think, what is it? Less than two weeks until we're out in Boston. Boston. Bast in Massachusetts. Very excited to get back out there to Laugh Boston. I just love doing comedy in the city of Boston. It's one of the best comedy towns out there.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

And then Nashville, Chicago, San Diego, Appleton, Wisconsin, Salt Lake City, Denver, Cleveland. Providence, Tacoma, Spokane, Detroit, Tampa, whole lot of stuff coming up. Comic Dave Smith dot com for all of those ticket links. And of course, if you want to support this show and get the episodes live and uncensored and ad free and get the bonus episode that we do weekly. I know I missed last week.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

We will make that up. I'm a few behind. We'll make them all up. Join us over at part of the problem dot com. Also, you get to be a part of the live chat, which I'll check in with in a little bit.

00:00 - 00:00 Robbie 'The Fire' Bernstein

Okay. On that note, if I can let everyone know, I did a Run Your Mouth with Professor David Collum. We threw some bombs. You should go check that one out. I don't do a lot of long-form interviews. And then I think April 5th and 6th, I'm in Steamboat, Colorado. And the weekend before or after that, doing the convention out in Idaho. I got a new website up. It'll be probably up there by now.

Chapter 2: What is Dave Smith's experience on Piers Morgan's show?

07:34 - 07:37 Dave Smith

Any thoughts you want to jump in with? Go ahead, Rob.

0

07:38 - 07:49 Robbie 'The Fire' Bernstein

I think that that's all fair. And what I would take the biggest issue with is just when we're out in the world and we're murdering innocent civilians.

0

07:50 - 07:57 Dave Smith

Sorry, I don't know if that was me or you, but you cut out there for a second. Could you just say that line again? We're out in the world is where I lost you.

0

07:57 - 08:03 Robbie 'The Fire' Bernstein

Yeah, when we're out in the world and we're murdering innocent civilians, I don't really see the distinction between us and terrorists.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

Yeah, well, I mean, the distinction seems to be like, well, do you have a military? All right, if you have a military, then it's not terrorism. Or, like, if you're an ally of America, then it's not terrorism, you know?

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

Yeah, just to give, like, a little bit of, like, a quick background on this stuff, because it's a little interesting that, you know, as you know well, Rob, because you've been with me for years at this point, The Yemen was an issue that really our camp was amongst the only groups caring about or talking about this for many years. It was from the end of the Obama administration

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

Through the entire Trump administration into the beginning of the Joe Biden administration. And in fact, when the Mises caucus took over the Libertarian Party, this was like the first big initiative that we launched was this like calling your congressman campaign to get an end to the war in Yemen.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

And it wasn't really until after October 7th – by the way, I shouldn't say it's not just the anti-war libertarians. There were like some small groups of good anti-war leftists or like the Code Pink and the Quakers for Peace and people like that who talked a lot about the just – humanitarian nightmare that was in Ukraine for many years.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

But anyway, it wasn't really until after October 7th when the Houthis started kind of fighting back and sticking up for the Palestinians that the world started talking a lot about the Houthis in Yemen and how horrible they are and, oh my God, they're attacking American cargo ships or whatever. But just so people know, This really goes back to the beginning of the Obama administration.
