Part two of our POW/MIA series examines the freaks, scammers, bone sellers, and widow seducers who made the alleged POWs in Laos a big business.

Gonna have to ask the Indochinese if the Zoot Suit is on its way

Way back when I was as in middle school we had mock elections for President in my history class— this was 1992. I voted for Bo Gritz. Some members of my family were wannabe militia types. My teacher groaned when he read his name aloud. He too pronounced it “Grits.”

Never has the opening of the show raised more questions. It's also fucked up Brace does "prank" COVID. Like do prank HIV or Ebola, COVIDs not funny. No laughing matter. It's not goofy like monkey pox.

My back is fully blowed out by this episode.

The Heroes Who Fell From Brace

Demented Avenger

I absolutely admire these grifters. They have an amazing skill to find the right marks, the right words to say, and get their money even when they so obviously fuck up. I thought the Trump Administration was the golden era of grifting—MAGA and the Resistance were just loaded with them—but I really should have paid more attention during the 1980s, because this was just baller. And remember, we had the blitheringly obvious TV evangelists, too!

Bo Knows Baseball. Bo Knows Football. Bo Knows Cinematic Qualities.

Speaking of freakshows, I've missed too many Freak Fridays on FYM

swervegriffin

Do another ep w Moss Robeson on the Canadian SS immigrants

Wiley Michelle B

I consider Brace a master of intentionally disgusting descriptions but the fly in the wound description actually made me gag on my breakfast so points for that 😂

When I grow up I want to be the third tower

Karl Childers

a helicopter is a precision engineered machine for slamming marines into hillsides

Mekong delta mujahideen , that’s some bo shit

Am I the only one who can't get this podcast to play? From the main feed, it's a spinning circle of death. From the TrueAnon Podcast page, it looks normal but simply doesn't work if you click play. All the other podcasts in the list still play fine.

eza

might as well change the name of the show to Facts Anon

Houthi & the Blowfish

When I got covid I took a picture of the test on different surfaces and in different lightings so I could distribute it to my comrades if they needed to use it and it wouldn't ping an image search. Hit me up if you need a new one

Tan Tan

damn YC, laying it down with those bass riffs over here 🤤

Shiv

PLEASE make some Planes ✈️ (image of whatever model was Vietnam era) are the horses of the sky merch

Anon Ibid

Funny coincidence, I just listened to the Fed as Folk episode this morning, where I first heard about Rat-Cat-Dog man... but brace defended him against these drugging charges. Why the change of tune?

Dan

I love the idea of a White-Hat CIA asset clutching his pearls about the CIA heroin trade in the Golden Triangle. Bo Gritz trained Mujahideen; what did he think they were financing themselves with? Did he meet Gulbadin Hekmatyar?

malpertuis

Cool how my Iran Contra trading cards can build into so many other decks.

kaicycle

You guys talked about afghan heroin and getting your back blown out in the same sentence and didn't shout out Blowback??? Big miss

Geroge

Brace what are your thoughts on The Honourable Schoolboy? Best le Carre?

Swimaroo

So, If I like a guy should I get him a copy of soldier of fortune ?

Juliette DeMaso

If you’re born with names like Bo or Tippet you’re going to end up Opps adjacent. Like various suburbanites giving their kids last names as first names, hoping to sound Ivy League, there’s apparently also a sloppy ops naming club.

Matt Pierce

Say what you will about the Khmer Rouge, but who else abolished the value form???

evan

she bo on my grits til my david dukes

Connor Green

Really cool series. Would have never imagined the POW issue being at the center of half of this shit. Hilarious

The Friends of Eddie Coyle

Great episode. But please, please, please! Stop confusing south east Asia and South Asia.

Maura Willey

i have seen the guy on the subway brace is talking about. crazy bc i think the same guy was in the movie Kids too and I saw him like 20 years after it was filmed

DoleWand

Yung Chomsky saying vinegar is the opposite of honey proves that he's the Vick Vinegar to Liz and Brace's Hugh Honey

SoldierBlue

Tell Brace Condalini wants his hand back

Court Hansen

The CPK actually referred to itself as “Angkar” meaning “the organization,” not as a reference to the Angkorean civilization. Brace if you’re reading this I want to discuss Cambodia and the splits in the indochinese communist movement with you.

Christopher Price

It's "Mission of Burma", not mission "to" Burma. It's named after the Burmese consulate in Boston.

Max Joyner

Spent some hard years in Bongsong Prison

Aaron Christmas

I heard "We gotta bring the boys home" a lot when I was growing up but it was usually because I'd spilled something on me and my brother's matching corduroy pants

A.S.

Cool series and all but can you guys delve more into our current state of affairs? — need more of Liz’s critique on tech and politics. Things are moving rather quickly! Like why musk is at eagle pass, why Biden is investing in “private fundraisers” for health and AI tech, APEC coming to the Bay Area, etc. there’s better topics to discuss than POW/ MIA IMO

Char Kelly

From Britain, to Boston, to Burma, Beau is getting his back blown OUT

MATT TRIANO

Guess you can have my last $50 enjoy it fuckheads

Claire Simon

smh all that gong talk last episode and not a SINGLE gong this one!!

NooBoody

Wtf why does Liz nod to Freud so often when he's been debunked since FOREVER?! Those gross-ass incest theories originated after so many patients reported sexual abuse in their families, Freud tried to publish on those results, and got intense pushback. (He goes back to the drawing board, does coke about it, and somehow ends up in the freakfest of Greek mythology) No normal person has subconscious attraction to their parents, c'mon - it was just victim blaming dressed up as theory

Jonica Stewart

What about Nixon's book The Real War?

Joshua MacCallister

Brace is intensely stupid and petty, but it works somehow.

Robert Ditty

John Milius did not direct Apocalypse Now! Francis Ford Coppola did! That movie has one of the most famous and disastrous productions ever. There is a famous documentary about it, Hearts of Darkness. John Milius was only a co-writer, along with a few others.

Kevin

Sir Chomsky, I will post this comment on each video and Patreon post in my abilities until you stop audibly blue-balling this planet and Bless us with at least an LP! Brace, I’m sure you’ve said the same as you know this man is meant for (more) great things
