About this Episode
In celebration of our 20th episode we are discussing Creedence Clearwater Revival's Fortunate Son from 1969. Bro. Felix joins us for a stimulating conversation on the Vietnam War, the Draft, David Eisenhower, John McCain, and all things Fogerty. Were you born with star spangled eyes anon? Your country's military-industrial complex plays Hail to the Chief and points the cannon at you, wyd?
