What's up, what's up everybody?

Welcome to a brand new episode of Part of the Problem.

It's a big one today.

How you doing, Rob?

I'm doing well.

How to the bootlicking debate go?

Yes, yes.

I just debated Tim Poole on a Pierce Morgan show. It was very friendly. You know, I loved him and he knows that. But he honestly, once we got on there, we kind of agreed on a lot of stuff. And I also, I was respectful. We're all licking the boot. Well, I said if Tim wants to identify as a boot, I will respect his pronouns. So I started off like kind of with a,

you know, a good, good spirit. But yeah, actually, it was a, it was a good time. And it was nice to,

to be back on, on Pierce Morgan. I feel awful for, did you hear what happened with him? He like fell

and really fucked up, like broke his femur and had to have his hip replaced and anything. So, but he's still pretty impressed. He's, this was only like a week, maybe two weeks ago at most, and he's doing the show. He's not in the studio. He's doing it like, I think, from home, but he's still doing his show, which I thought was just, I don't know, there's something, and I really do say this, don't, this is not at all an insult. I mean, this is a strongest possible compliment, but there's something and i really do say this don't this is not at all an insult i mean this is

a strongest possible compliment but there's something about pierce morgan that i just respect the

shit out of like even though he's had a million positions that i completely disagree with but he is

such a capitalist like such a pure like he even it's like our love for comedy is his love for doing

television and he's not going to miss his show. And that's awesome. He's like, he's like, dude, I there's, they're stitching up the side of his hip with his new hip they just put in there. And he's like, Dave Smith and Tim Pool are beefing on Twitter. He's like, all right, all right, let's make that happen you know like it's just it's just great i love you feel bad if it's not more

contentious like you didn't give peers the show he was looking for? Dude, I swear to God, I almost, I made a joke about it up front where, because Pierce started the thing, but because we made up on Twitter. Like Tim, you know, like tweeted at me after we did the segment. And look, admittedly, I was

pretty harsh on him. But like I kind of felt like he deserved it in the moment. And, but so then he tweeted on Twitter. He was like, Dave, you're not even making a point here. You're just making fun of me. And I was like, all right, Tim, well, you weren't really making a point either. So I was just making fun of you. But here's my argument, you know, and then I laid out my whole argument.

I wrote a long tweet. And then he went, I completely agree. And then I was just making fun of you. But here's my argument, you know, and then I laid out my

whole argument. I wrote a long tweet. And then he went, I completely agree. And then I was just like, all right, Tim, well, that's good. And I was like, look, I'm sorry if I was disrespectful or whatever, you know, like I do respect you and blah, blah, blah, and all the shit. But then Pierce starts the show by just playing the video by just playing the clip of what I said of it. I'm like, oh, look at you.

You're injured and you're still trying to stir shit up. then pierce starts the show by just playing the video by just playing the clip of what i said of it i'm

like oh look at you you're injured and you're still trying to stir shit up like there's just something great and i did i know i don't i didn't say it but i swear i did think at one point to just be like pierce i promised to go real hard on the next one like i promised to like, insult whoever the next guy that I debate is.

But I don't know. I liked him. But it was good. I thought it was fun. And it was, yeah, I thought it was actually a really good, one of the better, like, appearances, I think, that I've had on the show. Although, I don't know. I've had a lot. And let the people know, escape this brutal cold and come join us in Key West where they're all weekend. Key West Comedy Club.
