And Another Thing With Dave, by Dave Smith

In this episode: US Army veteran, filmmaker, and entrepreneur Corey Rowe sits down with Dave for a wide-ranging conversation about the origins of Loose Change, his path from high school enlistment to two combat tours, the decision to go AWOL, and the personal cost of questioning the official narrative of 9/11.

Rowe enlisted in August 2001 and began basic training on September 11. He served in Kandahar, Afghanistan, then Iraq, where events on the ground shattered his earlier patriotic view. After returning home he partnered with childhood friend Dylan Avery to produce the low-budget documentary Loose Change, which became one of the earliest viral internet videos and a cornerstone of the 9/11 Truth movement.

Topics covered include:

• The first day of basic training coinciding with the attacks
• The shift from supporting the Afghanistan response to questioning the Iraq invasion
• The human cost of the war and specific incidents that changed Rowe’s perspective
• Going AWOL under the stop-loss policy and the multi-year process that eventually led to an honorable discharge
• World Trade Center Building 7 as the strongest piece of evidence presented in the film
• PTSD, opioid addiction, recovery, and how cannabis later became part of his path
• Why he still keeps Loose Change available and what he wants people to take from the new book
• Broader thoughts on government accountability, education, and the direction of the country

And Another Thing with Dave, by Dave Smith

In this explosive conversation, Dave breaks down the cultural, political, and global tensions shaping the world in 2026. From gender ideology and victimhood culture to racial narratives, media manipulation, and escalating geopolitical conflict, this episode pulls no punches. If you’ve been feeling like society has gone off the rails, this one hits home.

Dave and his guest dive into the rise of identity‑based politics, the shifting rhetoric on gender and feminism, and how ideological movements have morphed into social pressure campaigns. They explore how victimhood narratives fuel entitlement, resentment, and division — and how these narratives ripple into crime, policy, and public perception.

The conversation then zooms out to global conflict: Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Israel, and the growing possibility of World War III. Dave discusses media propaganda, political hypocrisy, and the dangerous disconnect between public discourse and real‑world consequences.

This episode is raw, unfiltered, and brutally honest — a snapshot of cultural confusion, political extremism, and global instability.

• The rise of gender ideology and why people feel pressured to “play along”

• How feminism and Marxist academic roots shaped modern identity politics

• Victimhood culture, entitlement, and the psychological trap of learned helplessness

• Racial narratives, media gaslighting, and selective outrage

• Crime spikes, cultural clashes, and immigration tensions

• Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Israel — and why global conflict feels inevitable

• Media manipulation, propaganda, and political hypocrisy

• Why people repeat rhetoric instead of thinking critically

• The disconnect between real‑world danger and online discourse

“If you believe the world owes you something, you’re feeding the wrong wolf — and you’re building your own prison.”
