Nobody's texting war plans. Okay, great. Couldn't be more clear. Nobody was texting war plans. You hear me? Nobody was texting war plans.
Okay, look, just because you write in all caps, this is when the first bombs will definitely drop, doesn't mean there are war plans. Okay? This is Pete Hegseth. Maybe he was talking about Jaeger bombs.
If you ask me, that looks a lot like a plan for the war. It had military time and everything, okay? It had more details than you get from DoorDash. And those guys tell you everything, all right? 8.56, we have received your order. 8.59, we are preparing your food. 9.06, we accidentally dropped your food. 9.07, actually, don't worry about it. We're on our way.
So I think it's a war plan, but what the hell do I know? I've never seen one before because no one's ever been dumb enough to put one in a group chat with a journalist. But maybe... Maybe it's a... Maybe this is a good thing, okay? The receipts are out, so we can call a spade a spade and admit that these are indeed very specific war plans.
Oh, man, Janine must be a nightmare to make plans with. Hey, you said meet at Chili's at 7, but where's the f***ing longitude? Like, stop pretending you need some arbitrary detail to make it a war plan, okay? It's like saying, this wasn't an orgy. We didn't have the pink feathers and the eyes wide shut mask. Well, they're more than three dicks. Then it was an orgy, okay?
Everything else is semantics. You know what? You tell me. If having a detailed schedule plan of attack is not a war plan, then what is it? Do you think these are war plans?
Whoa. What is war, man? It's just raw spelled backwards. I think it was Shakespeare that said, what is in a plan? That which we call a war by any other name would accidentally get texted to Jeffrey Goldberg. For more on this stupid argument, we go live to the Pentagon with senior war correspondent Michael Kosta.
Hey, am I crazy or are these very clearly war plans?
Okay, then, why don't you enlighten me with your military genius? If that's not war planning, then what is it?
Holy shit, is that a war plan for Canada?
Of a war plan. Look, it has, like, arrows and airplanes and, like, weapons and those little crosshairs and there's times that... It's clearly a plan to invade Canada.
Welcome back to The Daily Show. America has a ton of problems right now, and no one knows who can solve them. But Chris DiStefano will give it a try in our new segment, Can Chris Solve It?
Welcome back to The Daily Show. My guest tonight is a legendary comedian and actor whose new film is called The Penguin Lessons. Please welcome the one and only, legendary Mr. Steve Coogan.
No, we reserve it for legends. You're a legend. It's so great to finally meet you. I've been following you for a long time. Huge fan of yours. You make me feel old, but keep going. Yeah, I mean, because I kind of, we kind of, you started in live performing. Yeah. And I also started in live performing. I know. And we both went to Edinburgh. You went to Edinburgh in 1990.
You did a show with Mr. Frank Skinner. And then you went back in 1992. You did a show with Mr. John Thompson. And a second, at the same time, you're doing a show with Richard Herring. And was it Armando Annucci? Armando Annucci, Patrick Marlborough. Stuart Lee was on that. Stuart Lee, yeah. And then you won the Perrier, which is the best show at Edinburgh for the show with John Thompson.
And I went to Edinburgh, and I won nothing, and I hated it. Yeah.
Yeah, but I guess, yeah, no, Edinburgh. I say all of that to be like, first of all, I've been to Edinburgh. It's the biggest live performing festival. But I guess you being a household name, comedy legend, very established in the UK, but you still stick with live performing. Never let that go. And I guess I'm wondering for myself, like, you know, I like to think I'd be able to do it too, but.
As a live performer, you use it to stay connected to the crowd. Is there any element of it where you feel like just as career diversification, and just from a pure money point of view, in terms of like, oh, that stuff, people can take away from you. TV, film, but live performing, it's always... It's true.
And you do, like, I mean, you kept, again, you got... I don't know if I should tell people this. You have, like, all the money in the world. You don't need to do anything anymore.
You're close. You're second. Yeah, and you still got... And, I mean, you did... Not only do you do the Alan Partridge live show, you did, like, Dr. Strangelove recently.
