“I’m Gonna Roast YOU!” Dave Smith vs Adam Sosnick Reunite In Comedy Battle

20:38I'm a little, let's just say, unwell about the fact that the joke to the audience about getting his throat shot out, which traumatized millions of people, is like, ha, ha, ha. But yet Shane Gillis was like half the time getting oohs when it came to race, women, Jewish jokes. And I'm like, so they feel way more comfortable laughing about him. And they wouldn't say that about a Democrat. They just wouldn't. Well, I certainly think it's true.

21:00Piers Morgan:That's true. Liberals are hypocrites, but let's not be that ourselves. Well, had you had a big leading liberal Democrat figure assassinated like Charlie Kirk was, I don't think for a moment Netflix would have aired that joke about that person. So I suspect there is a double standard, notwithstanding the fact that Netflix, in many people's eyes deserve credit to sort of barreling through the woke period and saying, right, we're going to put this on our platform, right, with all this outrageous stuff. Pierce, I think you're making a good point. I think Emily made a great point. And who said that women can't be funny?

21:36Look at Emily Save America right now. But I'll tell you this. Let me just shift the conversation. I think we should stop being so offended by jokes and be offended by the people who actually committed the crimes, the Tyler Robinsons. The Luigi Mangionis, okay? I don't think that Ayatollah or Nazis are that funny. We should be outraged at those people, not people telling the jokes about the people that were assassinated by these people. So Charlie Kirk was an American hero. It's a shame to see how he's sort of a punchline at this point. But I believe in a free society. I believe in the free exchange of ideas.

22:10And even though I'm disgusted by the joke, he could say it all day, every day, Pete Davis.

22:15Piers Morgan:Well, look, it's interesting. I mean, if you look at... Pierce, can I... Let me just say what George Floyd's family said by way of response, for example. They responded through a spokesperson saying that Hart's decision to allow Tony Hinchcliffe on stage was sad for the culture, arguing that Hart should have stepped in before the joke landed, given Hinchcliffe's history of making similar remarks at other events. They said, we're trying to rebuild things for our community and make things better in our community. Let's try to be a little bit more positive and not sit up there doing colon inspections by white comedians.

22:46Piers Morgan:um you know we who said that quote if you don't mind this was the george floyd family okay why do we care what george floyd family says about yeah why do we why are we worried about their family well george floyd george floyd was was killed by a police officer who's now serving oh the hero george floyd the innocent angel who helped society exactly the police officer was found guilty of deliberately killing him so that you know you can have your own view about it but his family are entitled to take your view that they have um and the same way that charlie kirk's you know it's interesting to me emily you're you know you're outraged about the floyd family having any feelings about him who was it was killed by a police officer but you you're equally outraged the other way about the charlie kirk joke because you feel like he should be no george floyd overdosed it was in the autopsy the policeman did everything he was supposed to the other policeman threw him under the bus when you go through the training and all the legal stuff i thought we had been over this and reached like a normal statement uh he was a career criminal and he was a horrible person and i don't care what him or his family that's happy to get money has to say about it well i don't think police police officers should go around let me pick up i think emily i think emily is partially right everything she said i don't care about george one.

24:06I think the bigger picture is this. We're comparing Charlie Kirk with George Floyd. Let's just sink that in for a second. The fact that these two names are on the same page is hilarious, and it shows how ridiculous society has become. The greatest person on the right, the conservative that led the movement to helping Trump get elected on colleges versus a career criminal drug addict, this is the parallel? Stop it, guys. Let's go up a little bit.

24:32Piers Morgan:OK, let me ask Jay this story. This was Kevin Hart defending the concept of a roast on social media. That, my friend, is what the fuck a roast is supposed to be. It's goddamn hard-hitting, relentless jokes with no consequence. It's the concept of a roast. You go hard, you go home. No emotion, no fucking feelings, man. It's not what a roast is about. Leave the emotions and the feelings at the front fucking door. People are coming in and they're looking for the shock factor. You know, that's the guy who was the target of most of the jokes. And like I say, when I watched it, the atmosphere in the room was very much like they're all sticking it to each other.

25:23Piers Morgan:All bets are off. There's no limit. You can say whatever you like and everyone was having a good time. But the reaction of people who weren't in the room has been different in many cases. Should there be no line? I mean, you know, you raised a point about the use of the M word. Nobody would do that on a high-profile television show, radio show, podcast, or anything else. You just wouldn't hear it, right? You wouldn't hear it. Unless your name's Nick Fuentes. Unless you're black. Well, yeah, I'm talking about white people wouldn't do that. high-profile white people wouldn't, because they would believe it crossed a line.

26:00Piers Morgan:So there is a line there, isn't there? But it's a question of how far that line goes. Exactly. And we're all ignoring the elephant in the room, which is the W question. We could talk about the JQ. We've got Jews here. We could talk about that. But what about the WQ, which is the Uyghur question, because that's riding the line. And as a representative of the Uyghur community, in fact, many people think that I'm kind of the emperor of Wixantium, I think that's a great segue. If we start using the word Uyghur, if we accept Uyghur culture, we can then transition into the normalization of the full-on inward, and then everyone will have an inward pass.

26:42Then we're done. Then we really have free speech.

26:45Piers Morgan:Okay, I get the point you're making. Who is this, WLK right here? No, no, I get the point you're making. But Dave Smith, is there no line? I mean, should... Well, I was just thinking about this. If you were listening to this debate, it seems like if there's no line, there's no line. But there are lines, so we know that. It's a bit like the First Amendment. You know, everyone thinks it's protective of all speech, but it's not. There are limitations. But if you listen to the first half of this debate, you'd say, well, these guys don't think there should be any limit on a joke, so why is there a limit on using the N-word, for example?

27:21Okay, I, okay, here, I mean, look, I think it's kind of subjective, like in the same sense of saying whether you think something's funny or not is kind of, whether you think a joke's funny or not, you're right, I guess, because to you, that's what it is. I will say this, okay, Pierce, there is one joke ever that I've been genuinely offended by. I think this is 20 years in stand-up comedy. There's only one joke I was ever genuinely offended by. And it was when Barack Obama got on at the White House correspondent dinner thing. And he made a joke. He said, Sasha and Malia are now old enough to date.

27:56I have two words for you boys, predator drones. And I remember being like, yo, dude, you can't joke about that. Like you actually murder people with, that's the joke that like, hey, people get murdered by my predator drones. Like, so in that sense, I that's the only time I've ever been offended by a joke. You'd have to be an actual murderer who was joking about the murders that you commit. I think that's over the line. Aside from that, Pierce. No, I don't really think there is one. And if you listen again, you don't have to watch the show. You don't have to go to a comedy club. You don't if you're offended by it, you're not wrong.

28:38It's just then it's not for you. But if we want to have a free society, then yeah, people have the right to do it, including using any word out there. Yes, people don't have a right to initiate violence or incite violence against other people, but they have a right to make whatever joke they want to. And if there's an audience that finds it funny, then God bless them. That's what being in a free society is all about. Yeah, Adam, do you agree with that? Yeah, look at us agreeing, Dave. I thought the Obama thing is, I mean, he's, that's his own thing. I'll let him deal with that. But I agree with Dave.

29:09Dave, it's a free society, free speech. You know what I used to say when I did stand-up comedy, because I did some racial jokes, blacks, Jews, I live in Miami, Latinos, Cubans. I would do accents. I said, the one thing is this. It's not racist if you make fun of everybody. If you're just like, you know what? The only people I hate are Mexicans. It's like, all right, now you're just a racist. But if you're an equal opportunity employer and you're judging comedy based on merit, there's no racism. Anyone can say whatever they want to say if you're just an equal opportunity. Would you do it on the PBD podcast?

29:42Piers Morgan:Would you tell Shane Gillis that he did some Jewish jokes? Would you tell genocide jokes? Would you tell Holocaust jokes? In other words, would you do that on your own platform? Or are you saying this because you think it sounds good as part of a debate like this, but actually when it comes to your own platform, you would be more self-policing? Time and place, Pierce. There's things that I will say and that won't cross a certain line. PBD, if you know anything about PBD, high standards. Let's get this thing right. He's a leader amongst leaders. He doesn't play that game, and he's helped me raise my standards and raise my game.

30:20Same with Vinny. Same with Tom. Shame for everything that we're doing in value attainment at Bed David. Consulting, high standards, high standards, high standards. But that's different from me listening to a joke out in the public atmosphere. So, no, there's things that I won't say. I won't say the N-word. I won't cross certain lines. I think that's lowbrow. But I'll defend your right to say it or be unfunny and deal with the consequences of that. So, in essence, yes, I'm agreeing with the comedian, Dave Smith, in this regard.

30:50Piers Morgan:I think we now have our headline, which will go viral. I agree with Dave Smith, says Adam Solzheny. All right, Emily, what do you think? Pierce, you're actually trying to be funny today, so I've got to give you credit. I'm naturally funny, mate. Well, I don't understand, because I think... The British accent is all the... Are we all kind of saying? We have an advantage. When you have a British accent, you're naturally hilarious. Everybody knows that in America. I don't know about that. Emily? Okay, so we're saying that we all agree that there shouldn't be a line, but at the same time, there will always be a line for white people, because you can have black comedians go on and say whatever they want, or pretty much everyone else, but a white comedian could never go on and say the N-word because they would legitimately lose everything.

31:31They'd be canceled. They would not have a way to make a living. So it's like, we're all saying that there shouldn't be a line, yet we all know that for, I would say specifically white people, there will always be a line and that line won't go away. I would also like to point out the hypocrisy of everyone on that stage is a Democrat. There wasn't really any huge Republicans on that stage. And I'm like, but those are the people who have pushed for censorship, who get offended at everything, who said we can't make jokes. These are the same people that killed Hollywood, killed comedy, and now all of a sudden they're like, you guys, we're back.

32:02Don't get butt hurt. Yeah. I'll give you one caveat. Cat Williams. I don't know where Cat Williams is these days. That was the storyline that got lost through all of this. Pierce, I'm not sure if you're following what happened with Cat Williams and Kevin Hart. Are you familiar with that drama and that saga? Yeah, of course. And that beef. Do you know about that?

32:17Piers Morgan:Yeah, yeah, of course. Okay, so it was great to see that them squashed their beef. And just like me and Dave Smith, we can get along in the spirit of comedy even if you're perceived as enemies. Look at that. Shout out to Cat Williams and Kevin Hart pretending to be friends. Okay, so can Republicans be comedians now? Well, I think... Everyone can be comedians. Do you know what? Funny enough, in all the debate about things like Jimmy Kimmel... Apparently not. In all the things about Jimmy Kimmel's jokes about Trump or whatever it may be, or the Charlie Cote one he did, which got him into big trouble, I did remember thinking that I admired the intellectual honesty of people like Ted Cruz, who refused to join in the Conservative demands to fire Jimmy Kimmel over a joke, because he said, we have complained about the woke left doing this to us for years.

33:07Piers Morgan:Are we really now going to turn around and when we don't like a joke, we're going to call for that person to be cancelled? I admired that. And there were quite a few that did that. But there were others who didn't. I mean, Ben Shapiro has led... He's had a difficult few weeks, Ben Shapiro, from what I've been reading. But he said this about the Charlie Kirk joke in particular.

33:526 5 winning is everything. Gambling problem? Call 1-800-GAMBLER. 21 plus only must be physically located in Illinois. TNC supply in app only. With Pete Davidson, that is, that is a horrible joke. I gotta say, I'm not here to, to scold people for, for telling jokes. I, I'm making, um, a gay oral sex joke and a Charlie Kirk being shot to death joke in the same joke. That is, that's a new low. I'm not sure that I've ever heard a joke quite as bad as that joke right there.

34:28Piers Morgan:So, you know, he's making his point about the jokes, but what was interesting is if we go back to that joke I referenced about Tony Hinchcliffe at Trump's Madison Square Garden rally, I actually went to that. It's the only rally I've ever been to. Let's take a look at what he said that day. There's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. Yeah. I think it's called Puerto Rico. There was absolute outrage about that. And yet Hinchcliffe's seven-minute set in this roast on Netflix was infinitely more offensive to infinitely more people. Yeah. And there's been nothing like the outrage.

35:04Piers Morgan:And that's the bit, I think, Jay, where I look at this and go, there remains just a weird inconsistency, double standard, intellectual dishonesty about this whole thing. Well, in the words of Cat Williams, Piers Morgan, ain't nobody going in my booty hole. Not an alien. This guy deserves his own special. Well, I was going to ask you all, actually. This guy's funnier than you, David. He's not even a comedian. This guy's good. In the spirit of a roast then, Jay. Listen, I'll give you the line. I'll give you the line. I'll give you the line. The line for this is you look at, there's a trend right now on TikTok where you got teenagers and they're sort of mimicking the assassination of Kirk, right?

35:47So when the left does a lot of these jokes, and I grant that it's hard to usually tell intention, they are actually at times trying to spark people to be violent. We all remember Kathy Griffin, right? She was saying, I wish people would do it. Madonna says, you know, people do this because they know that lunatic leftists will pop off because they're inspired by their God, the media, that tells them what to do. So I think that might be a line if we were trying to find a line.

36:16Piers Morgan:Okay, look, given there's no holes barred on this show, I'm going to call it uncensored. I thought it would be in the spirit of a roast that all of you could have this opportunity to roast one other panel member in any way you see fit. And that's how we'll end the show. So Dave Smith, what do you want to say about Adam? There's nothing left to roast. Give it to me good, baby. Give it to me good. I don't, I didn't, I left nothing behind, man. Come on, Dave, you're a comedian. Give me something good, baby. David, you're on the spot, Dave Smith. Come on. I'll use my spot. Nothing but kindness and love.

36:49Patrick Bet David, Valuetainment. Love all those guys. Great show. Adam, do you want to roast Dave Smith? He got the call. Pierce, he got the call. Bibi Nanyal called him and said, go easy on the guy today. He got the call. Check his bank account for 7K, Pierce.

37:03Piers Morgan:Have you got anything you want to roast Dave about? Listen, Dave, I respect the fact that he gets on there. I take the fact that he gets on there debates. I'm not going to go there and say the same line that, why does this guy call himself a comedian? All he does is talk politics. People say he's the unfunniest comedian in America. I'm not going to go there. He's a spirited debater, and I'm happy to be here. And it's good to see even a funny person who identifies as a woman named Emily, because who says that women can't be funny? So thanks for having me, Piers. You even were kind of funny today, Piers.

37:34Thank you. Even though you're British.

37:35Piers Morgan:I appreciate it. Emily, do you want to roast anyone? What the fuck? What did you just call me? Did you call me a different woman's name? I called you Emily. I said you're Emily. No, I'm talking about Adam. You said my last name wrong. Anyways, no, I think the big... What did he call you? I don't know your last name. I think you may have missed her. Emily, here's your chance to be funny. Don't start arguing with the dude. No, not arguing with him. I'm trying to say, I think the whole point of this is it's very hypocritical. If there's any violence or jokes made against the right, it's completely fine and justified.

38:10But when we go make a, you know, Kevin Hart makes a gay bashing comment and he makes a Puerto Rico comment, they're up in arms. They're allowed to do TikToks to Charlie Kirkassass. I think you've made that point.

38:20Piers Morgan:But is there anyone on the panel you want to give a little sly roast to? Well, I don't know any of these people well enough to roast them. That doesn't matter. Come on, Emily. Give us something good, baby. Give the wigger a chance. Well, I don't know. This is supposed to be a comedy panel, and no one has been very funny, so I don't know what to tell you. All right, well, let's go to Jay. Jay, you've had a bit of time to think about this. Do you want to roast anyone? I'm going to roast you. Great. Yeah. You're on. Since you're offended by the N-word, I'm just going to say, here's you a real wigger.

38:56Piers Morgan:Thank you. I heard the W loud and clear. I'll tell you what I'd like to end with, actually, because it did strike me as hilarious last night when I saw the picture for the sad demise of Stephen Colbert. They brought together all the other late-night hosts, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, John Oliver and Jimmy Fallon. And I thought, what a striking advertisement for the DEI that they all love to preach about, these guys. Oh, yeah. There are five middle-aged white dudes, liberal Trump haters, not a diverse or inclusive face amongst them. Sometimes real life... Sometimes real life is funnier than any comedy.

39:39What a diverse group of people. And they're all millionaires.

39:43Piers Morgan:Damn shame that Jimmy fell in. And also, you know the one who wasn't invited was Greg Gutfeld from Fox, who beats them all in the ratings, and he wasn't invited. Well, Chris, based on your comedy skills, you should have been the oldest white guy in that picture right there, part of that crew right there. But it's a damn shame to see what happened to Jimmy Fallon because he's legitimately talented, legitimately funny, and he's looped in with these middle-aged white guys who are completely unfunny. And the leader of the unfunny is by far Jimmy Kimmel. I shouldn't cancel that guy, but that guy is a hack above all.

40:14Piers Morgan:Well, the sad thing I always feel, and we've got to end, unfortunately, but I just interviewed Jay Leno recently. I just remember thinking, in the great old days of Carson or Leno or Letterman, whatever, it just felt a little bit warmer. They would use sharp comedy, but about everybody. They weren't so obviously partisan politically. Yeah, they didn't hate half the country. Right, and I think that's been one of the real problems behind why America is so divided, is that all the late-night guys, with the exception of Gutfeld, but all the late-night guys, they all do. But Fallon doesn't do it really like the others, but they just seem to think their job is to loathe half the country, and anyone who voted Trump has to be mocked and ridiculed and the Trump bashing has to be relentless.

40:59Piers Morgan:And I actually hanker for the days when you had Leno, Letterman, Conan, these guys, where this wasn't their shtick at all. Come on, Pierce. Pierce, you're old enough. You're Johnny Carson's age. You remember that. You remember what's going on. Bring back Johnny Carson. You never knew Johnny Carson's politics, ever. He never told people. He never told people. Well, even George Carlin talked about super controversial stuff, but he still was, like, loving in general. I always think it can be very controversial. I mean, I'm very opinionated, but not in a politically partisan manner. And it wouldn't cross my mind to say something which would alienate deliberately half the people watching if they vote Trump or whatever.

41:43Piers Morgan:Why would I do that? I might be critical, but I'm not going to say, like Hillary did, you're a basket of deplorables. I don't understand where that part has all come from. Anyway, guys, you're not a basket of deplorables. Pierce, why don't you roast some people on the panel? Since you're so funny right now, why don't you roast some people on the panel? All of us. You are a basket of delightful human beings, and it's my joy, my warm joy... Future looks right, Pierce. ...to have you on our session. The country is healing. Let's go. Adam, it's great to see you come out of the body bag, mate. It really is.

42:17Piers Morgan:Emily saves money. Thanks, Pierce. Great to see you out of the morgue as well. Well, my name is Morgan. Where else would I be? Good to see you all, guys. Thank you very much. Out of the morgue, back from the dead, him and Johnny Carson. I think you've saved yourself. PBD can look proudly on your performance and say it doesn't have to be the last.
