About this episode
In 1987, America was ready to look back on the Vietnam War... with laughter. We discuss GOOD MORNING VIETNAM (1987) and why it is one of the quintessential "boomer liberal" texts. PLUS: We check in on the state of Canadian politics (it's not good, folks).
Michael and Us is a podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage.
