There's Something Happening Here: The Vietnam War - Part IX - Country Joe and the Fish Fry
Manage episode 484181436 series 3594690
"Yeah-yeah, some folks inherit star-spangled eyes.
Hoo, they send you down to war, Lord
And when you ask 'em, "How much should we give?"
Hoo, they only answer, "More, more, more, more" - "Fortunate Son" by Creedence Clearwater Revival
On this last episode of his series that focused on The Vietnam War, The Hungry Historian is going to go through the most important and longest lasting legacy from the conflict.
No, it's not the Vietnam Veteran's Memorial or the areas of Vietnam that are still scarred and bare from years of war and chemical defoliation.
Nope. What we're focusing on is the war's impact on Popular Culture. Most notably, it's influence on music and movies.
Follow along as The Hungry Historian covers a wide selection of songs, and discovers that some of them may or may not actually be about that whole War in Vietnam. Once that's done, he'll discuss The War's portrayal on the big screen.
Meanwhile, Chef Money has prepared a Feature Recipe inspired by one of the most well known songs about the Vietnam War, and one that is fun, easy, and ideal as we move toward the summer months.

Cheers!
