Is The VFW Worth Saving? (Your Mileage May Vary)

Dadchat ends at 16:19! Nate and Francis discuss whether or not it’s a good idea to even attempt to save old veterans’ social organizations and fraternal orders. We read a very ill-advised statement from the American Legion’s commander in 2020 where he compared the Black Lives Matter protests to covid-19, discuss the idea of a hostile takeover of VFWs by antifa supersoldier vegan bodybuilder veterans, and much more. For this week’s bonus, Francis, Joe, and Carey review the recent Hulu miniseries adaptation of Joseph Heller's classic military satire 'Catch-22.' Did you know they named Yossarian not out of a desire to tie him to being Armenian, but to make him sound weird? Learn this, and much more, in our (extremely professional) review.
