Reaganite Rambo: Did Uncommon Valour, Missing In Action & First Blood Pt. II fuel the 1980’s P.O.W. conspiracy and influence actual U.S. foreign policy? W/ Scott Weatherly
I'm back with our regularly scheduled programming! Scott Weatherly joins me again to discuss the intersectionality of 80's action flicks and the U.S. political landscape. As he asks whether this "Bring Our Boys Home" Trilogy infected the mind of the nation with a belief that U.S. soldiers were still being held captive years after the Vietnam war ended? Join us as we discuss giving a 'thumbs up' during a fire fight, Chuck Norris' acting talent & Donald Trump using Ronald Reagan's playbook... #PrepareForPrattle
