Dear Airmen and Marines! Thank you for coming to the theater yesterday at Edwards. I cannot tell you what it meant to meet many of you up close and personal. I love you men and women in uniform so much, that I almost lost it on stage that first show. I regrouped and manned up, but looking out at how brave and courageous you all are, really hit me in the heart! Thank you for attending the Mandatory! I hope I have introduced a variant method and format to bring a message along with much laughter. We have to laugh at ourselves, but we also have to look hard into that mirror, and seek change when we need to. Thank you Chiefs Jaren and Brejcha. Thank you Chief for the time you shared at 1600 hrs when you could have went home. I will not forget that! Thank you Vince Duny and Col McKenna. The lunch at the club and the visit to the Museum. It was an honor to serve….those who serve! When you all host that incredible Air Show Saturday, know I will be on stage at an Army base in NJ(Ft Monmonth), doing what I do, but thinking of you back home, and the Sound of Freedom, overhead!

Thanks for taking time to come out to Edwards AFB and entertain the troops as well as telling your story with a deep message.
Thank you
Good show, lots of laughs. 🙂
BEST “SAFETY BRIEFING” EVER!!!! You were amazingly funny. I enjoyed every minute of it.
Hey Bernie you did great today I greatly appreciate you coming out and doing your show for us it was truely inspiring and entertaining. I hope that you enjoy your time at the worlds greatest AFB in the middle of nowhere Edwards.
Bernie, You literally made me laugh outloud, didn’t think that could happen at Edwards (har har). Big thanks for making the mandatory comedy show work. You were great!
Bernie, Best AF training I’ve had. I think it’s awesome that you’re taking the time to share your message and laughs with us.
Just wanted to Say it was an awesome show, way better than the power point dulldrums we go through every year!
Hello Bernie!
However the show was Mandatory for us, myself and my fellow Marines enjoyed the show, and took a great deal of knowledge from it. Of all the classes, talks and slide shows we sat through, yours is the only one that has left an impact in our minds.
Im not just writting to get the free book but because..okay yea I want to win the free book.
Next time dont forget bout them Marines sitting in the crowd of Airmen!
We support what you do, and thank you for what you do.

Hey Bernie! Great show. You are seriously funny!
thanks for comming…
Bernie,
You had me laughing to the point of tears. Thanks for coming out to Edwards and being an inspiration to those serving this wonderful country.
When I saw that I had a mandatory Drunk Driving briefing, I was worried that it would be like the Save A Life Tour (http://savealifetour.net/) that I’ve been forced to endure–twice. Just compare the two websites to see what I mean. Thank you for having a positive message that doesn’t villianize (and alienate) the audience, but also doesn’t shy away from serious issues. I felt that you were on our side.
You are hilarious, I could relate to everything you said. I have lost close friends and family members victims of drunk drivers, that are why I joined Airmen Against Drunk Drivers (AADD) to provide a ride who are in need to diminish the number of accidents. Thank you for the good time and excellent message you provide us with a great laugh and not a drink. God bless you and keep the good work.
Great show today! I really liked it, I especically liked how you talked about your family and how they mean so much to you. I too have a brother with special needs so I can relate. Thanks again for the laughs.. it was hilarious!!
Great comedy and message. Thanks for taking the time to come to our base.
u are awesome u had me rollin. good job getting ur point across
Bernie – sincere thanks for performing your show and giving your message to the Airmen at Edwards AFB. I hope and pray the message you delivered will take root and make a difference in many lives…those who have bought into the the lie that fun only begins with alcohol excess, drugs, and other vices. You’ve turned some unfortunate personal experiences into a captivating, powerful message and testimony. Again, many thanks. D Bek
Bernie, thanks for coming out and showing us the importance of having a plan and not drinking and driving. Your “briefing” was worth the sit down.
Thanks for the laughs
