The group jokes about Irish Catholics' supposed sympathy for Palestinians due to British history, then Tim proposes a massive benefit concert with Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, and Drake to end the conflict, riffing on Drake's silence.
- Tim and guest establish they're both Irish Catholic and not involved in the Israel-Palestine conflict
- Tim explains he doesn't feel that kinship because he identifies as American rather than Irish
- Tim proposes Israel should do a ceasefire only after Palestinians release all hostages
- Tim questions why Ed Sheeran can't solve the Middle East with his guitar
- Guest argues they're a little gun shy of music festivals right now
- Tim says concerts have been held in Vegas and insists music could help de-escalate the situation
- Tim suggests holding the peace concert inland and away from Gaza with proper security and metal detectors
- Drake has been oddly quiet about the conflict despite being half involved
