What are Dave Smith and Robbie Bernstein's thoughts on recent travel and shows?
what's up what's up everybody welcome to a brand new episode of part of the problem it's good to be back home we are live back from houston thank you to everybody who came out we had a great time out there and of course i'm joined by robbie the fire bernstein as i was in houston how are you sir i'm doing well how are you mr smith Very, very good. I cannot complain. Well, you know I can. Now that I thought about it out loud, I can complain a little bit. No, I'm just... You know, Mondays, after a long weekend, for whatever reason, it's always like... You know, I have a long weekend and a lot of travel. And then Monday, I have to go in to the city for Legion of Skanks. I have art podcasts. And it's always like clockwork.
That Monday coming off of a weekend of travel is always when Pierce Morgan calls or whoever wants to add a show. And always, for whatever reason, that Sunday night, my kids won't sleep. So I'm just up all night. And then after being up all night, because you know the way, so like we'll be, I got back to the hotel at like one in the morning on Saturday night. And then I had to leave for the airport at three in the morning. So there's no sleep that night. And then I come back and I got a packed day on Monday. And I'm like, all I need is a good night's sleep on Sunday. And my three-year-old just somewhere in his soul, he hears that. And he was like, all right, let's wake up 15 times tonight. How about that?
Anyway, I can't complain. Pecan pie from the supermarket and went to sleep around 9 PM. It was great.
Well, there you go. I mean, that's listen, there's a, there's benefits to the single life. That's all I'm saying. There's one of them. I do not have the opportunity to do that. Um, Anyway, though, it was a lot of fun and we had a particularly great time. A lot of our people were out there in Houston, so it was great to see Tom Woods and all those guys. So, that was a lot of fun. And then our next stop is in Buffalo, New York. And it looks like, I don't know if I have the go-ahead to promote it yet, but it looks like we're going to attach a Canada show to that as well. But comic Dave Smith dot com for the ticket links there will be up at Helium Buffalo and then doing a show in Canada. It looks like after that. So please come out and see us there. Comic Dave Smith dot com.
OK, so there's a few things that I was thinking about talking about on today's show. I guess we could start with the fact that since our last episode, Kash Patel has been confirmed as the FBI director. Dan Bongino has been added as the deputy director, which was that I had not heard floated out before, so kind of interesting. And so, yeah, this is... a big development at this point. I think it's kind of safe to say that basically Donald Trump got all of his controversial appointments through minus Matt Gates. And by the way, when I say controversial appointments, I don't mean that at all as a slight, these were the only guys that I liked were the ones who were controversial. But I, but so he did get cash Patel and he's got Bongino there at the FBI. Now, I don't know.
I'm kind of curious what your thoughts on this are, Rob. Certainly, at least, it seems that Donald Trump 2.0, compared to the first four years of Donald Trump's term, has certainly done a better job protecting himself, if nothing else, that he's got some guys who do seem to be Loyalists who were outside of the cabal of people who were weaponizing the government against him, you know, keep in mind how integral the FBI was to shutting down Donald Trump's agenda in his first four years. So it's a whole different situation, at least currently. What do you think about cash getting in there, Bongino or any of this stuff?
Firstly, Bongino getting in there is a big win for bald loudmouths. So in terms of, you know, just looking at the economic landscape and seeing what your career trajectory could be, the fact that a bald podcaster who talks a lot of shit just got a job in the political administration and a real job at that is pretty cool.
