01:12 - 01:16 Robbie 'The Fire' Bernstein

I'm doing well. I'm excited to head up to Boston, work on some jokes.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

We are going up to Boston the day after tomorrow, which would be March 27th, 28th, and 29th. We'll be up there. I'm very much looking forward to going back to Boston. Been a while since we've been there. And been a while, I think... What's the spot we're playing at? Laugh Boston? I think it was the spot.

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

We've never done that. In the past, we did Nick's Comedy Stop.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

That's right. So this is our first time at Laugh Boston. I'm trying to think if I've ever done it. Because I've done shows with you in Boston. Right. It was back at Nick's Comedy Stop. That's right.

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

And this is a more proper comedy club.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

There, there you go. We did it at comedy stop, and I believe it was me and Lewis co-headlining, and you and Tim Dillon were the special guests. Talk about three people being in the same place and one person being drastically further than them. Holy moly. All right, guys, Tim Dillon, special guest this weekend. All right, I can't back that up, but it will be a great show. I'm just kidding.

Chapter 2: What upcoming events are Dave and Robbie discussing?

20:23 - 20:49 Dave Smith

But I got to say, it was like pathetically weak, pathetically weak, totally with the contingency of like, I'll go along. I mean, like, if you guys want to bomb them, I'll bomb them. But and the only objection he has is over the like. It's always the worst Trumpian objection is that Europe should pay for the bombing a little bit more. That's essentially what his objection is. I'll read it in a sec.

20:49 - 21:13 Robbie 'The Fire' Bernstein

I was just somewhat shocked that it's not much of a strategy conversation. It's more of an optics conversation. And I would just think that, you know, for the pitch of maybe we don't always see the geopolitics behind what these conversations actually are. No one's coming in and going, well, we've planned this out in strategic strike and we know that we can have blank result.

0

21:13 - 21:30 Robbie 'The Fire' Bernstein

Or, hey, this is a clear directive from the president. It's a very loose conversation of it's almost like the way I would go with, hey, I don't know if we need any TVs in the studio, but I saw a good deal over here. Oh, yeah, maybe maybe that's a good idea. It's a very casual conversation.

0

21:30 - 21:50 Robbie 'The Fire' Bernstein

There's not a lot of, hey, I just got the military intelligence on this and we know that the bad guys are hiding out here and we can have a real impact, but we got to act quickly. There's no like significant intelligence here. It's mostly a conversation about, hey, should we go? I think we're going to go and do this. And I think the optics match the president's agenda at the moment.

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

OK, I'm all right with that. Yeah, I'm going to do it, too.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

They're alluding to Trump seems to be the loosest of directives. Like they're like, hey, Donald Trump, he kind of he gave the green light. He said open back up the shipping lanes and then it's kind of left up to us to figure out how. So like in your example, you're almost like we were like, oh, you know, I saw this monitor that looks cool and this one's on sale.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

And then you'd be like, well, the owner of the studio said make it look cool. You know, like, there's not even, like, a specific thing, like, you were tasked with getting this monitor, and I found it at a good price, and therefore... It was just a general, like, yeah, whatever you think looks good kind of thing.

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

And so anyway, so this is the only real... Aside from this, it all seems to just be them agreeing. By the way, you know, again, there might be something here that wasn't reported. No principled objection from Tulsi Gabbard whatsoever. Look... And I'm just saying, I think we were saying this the whole time, right?

00:00 - 00:00 Dave Smith

Like the whole time throughout Trump, before the election, after the election, during his selecting his cabinet, that you were just like, look, he put a lot of bad people in there and the foreign policy team isn't good. And even Tulsi Gabbard is not good when it comes to this type of like targeted strikes. Yeah. Anyway, OK, so I'm going to read from the article.
