This week, John Schneider's done not hurting anybody...

Comments

Nicholas Monter

At first I was like, "The Nicole Kidman movie was Jesusy? WOW I really was out of it in the 90s."

tsukiouji

After we watched this on the discord, I watched the episode of Leverage he was on so I could watch him get punched out and his musical "career" get mocked. Turns out he wasn't playing a character in that episode lol.

My friend and I watched this piece of shit movie Saturday afternoon. Rough, this movie is garbage. Is this what you do to yourselves every week ? *Hug*

tsukiouji

Didn't you join us in the server on Sunday?

tsukiouji

Wait, he said CORONER at the end? I could swear he said CORN. Like "I don't need a doctor, I just need me spinach"

Anne the transwoman

That was Sunday? Oh well, 😂 yes yes I was on the discord

Danial Gibson

Okay, why did he kidnap the neighbor? Did I miss something in the breakdown? Wasn't the neighbor one of like five people who almost agreed/had met him halfway? The quarterback would've made more sense.

Why Vietnam? Does John Schneider think it gives him sympathy points that the Gulf War doesn’t get? My dad left the Army two months before the Gulf of Tonkin incident which really pushed US involvement in Vietnam. My dad is 84 years old. Also, there’s a GAM discord?

Justin Campbell

If I get the chance to introduce this podcast to anyone, this episode will be my choice!

LisaLisa

This seems like a parody of a Maga movie. I can't believe someone wrote this with sincerity. Holy shit!

TenaciousB

Every time someone mentions discord my brain says "You are too old to learn a new platform" but is sounds so tempting 😂

Kristine VanRaalte

I am only at the part where Heath called the El Camino the "mullet of cars," and I have laughed soooooo much already. This is GAM at its best. When I try to refer my friends and family to this podcast, they think they have to be able to picture the movie in order to get it. For me I do other things and periodically re-focus on the show in time to hear yet another hilarious joke and it doesn't matter that I have only the smallest understanding of the movie. Maybe that's why I have listened to this show all the way through so many times. I have caught something new each episode every time!!

Kristine VanRaalte

THANK you. I knew there was another movie called that and I couldn't think of it.

Kristine VanRaalte

His disease is dying of loneliness. And instead of changing to be more pleasant to be around, he gets more and more bitter so he alienates everyone in order to be able to blame THEM for the fear he feels for from that knowledge.

On the subject of being recalled: Marine Corp veteran here and yes if you get recalled you would want to wear the uniforms you left with if they still fit. Otherwise you'd have to buy new ones to wear. You get a clothing allowance as part of your pay, but the only clothing the government paid for directly was damaged in the line of service which requires a form explaining the damage or loss and you hope it gets approved.

tsukiouji

It's a PiaT fan discord. Just use the server search to find "discord in a thunderstorm."

Danial Gibson

Sadly no, that was a legit question. After listening to so many of these, I was expecting the 'hero' would kidnap the youngest cast member and 'convince' them they were right. That was the plot of at least one Christmas movie they've previously reviewed.

Turanga Leela

Couldn’t find it. Do you have a link or invite?

Markus Nävergård

because the folks that make these movies does not understand that they are the bad guys.

Lexie Miller

How dare you guys shit on honey in coffee. You’ve finally taken it too far.

Uriah Jackson

I just realized, when it was pointed out that his character has no arc, that far too many of these Christian movies are like that. The main character is written to be the ideal being and doesn't change, it's the rest of the world that's supposed to have an arc by coming to agree that he (it's always a he) is right.

Kristine VanRaalte

Thank you so much for the edification. I just can't believe we are still doing this kind of stuff to our military members. Seems just a tad ridiculous to have to jump through hoops for a clothing allowance. I think this information should be more widely-known. I really appreciate your sharing your knowledge and perspective.

Stonedbanana

We all get money added to our paycheck every year to cover uniform items like new boots, replace a worn uniform, etc., but unless it happens during training, combat, and some incidents during transport you're expected to cover any damaged or lost gear and even then it can be a pain to get it replaced depending on how supply is run wherever you're stationed.

Dave

I want to push back on Heath's suggestion that the character was in any way named after John Quincy Adams. Adams spent his life decrying slavery; he's the only early president never to have owned a slave. His father is the only "founding father" who never owned a slave and ALSO spent his life speaking out against the evils of slavery. Near the end of his life, John Quincy Adams represented in court a group of African men who were taken as slaves, who killed their slavers and took control of their ship - the Amistad - and not only did Adams WIN, he then arranged for these men to be returned to their home country as free men, DECADES before the Civil War. There is a ZERO percent chance that the makers of this film regard John Quincy Adams as anything but some kind of communist antifa race traitor.

Markus Nävergård

be funny if his wife in life was not black, but she got to choose to be black in heaven to spite him

Kristine VanRaalte

We are the richest country in the world. This is so wrong.

Stonedbanana

The free food, housing, and healthcare was nice though. Some months I spent every penny I had but I still ate great meals, had electricity, and a place to sleep. 🤷🏻‍♂️ It has it's perks. 😅

Aesurah

This racist, violent war veteran finds out some kids killed his dog.... and all he does is put up a big flag? Least believable thing in the movie.

Markus D

I love a happy ending.

Markus D

Man, if only everyone else could have shit like that even if they didn't want to potentially die for... largely colonial business prospects!

Markus D

It's not a super difficult platform to learn, IMO. It's probably my favourite way to chat with people online because it's a very "all in one" app. Here's a link: https://discord.gg/kPmfr5SZ

Stonedbanana

I hope for and promote that idea almost every day.

Paige Benjamin

This is one of those films where I am literally taken aback by the racism. I am sure they think they are enlightened because they don't like say the n word or something, but the level of profound bigotry that they just think is *normal* is fucking insane.

3rd Amendment Truther

I looked this up hoping it was on YouTube and saw the Nicole Kidman film and was thinking, this should be spicy 🔥

Sidewinder

This was one of the best episodes in a long time, great job everyone.

Sidewinder

Same, I have the GAM Wiki open in its own browser on my phone just to periodically pick a random episode and listen.

There aren’t many places more liberal than Ann Arbor, but even here, schools have American flags.

Roy Thompson

Shockingly bad movie, but a terrific episode.

kaizerlith

...Oh boy. This is feeling too familiar to a dude we have here in St Cloud Minnesota. He is literally google-able as St Cloud Superman and he is very much like this dude. Untreated mental health, high dose of racism, fuckton of flags on truck, blaring music and harassing students only switch sjw high-school students out for College Somali students. The only big difference is at least the restraining orders here work and are enforced on him.

J. Vizzle

"Flagsturbation" made me laugh loud enough that I got bitched at by a co-worker. ❤️

Amanda Burns Art

It’s just chat rooms. There’s more bells and whistles, but that’s all it really is!

Amanda Burns Art

Next Patreon goal, a version with voiceover for Glory’s perspective?? Pretty please 🥺

TenaciousB

Next they'll be coming for my oat milk!

Uriah Jackson

I want to push back on the idea that the maga types actually know/learn details of U.S. history.

Dave

Perfectly valid point. But I doubt that the Adamses occupy any space in their mythology about America, in the ways that Washington and Jefferson do. Certainly not enough to merit naming a character after one of them.

Anonymous User

Just got to the end. His wife was black? So his daughter was mixed? I saw on IMDB that the actress is a sultry and voluptuous brunette. It doesn’t have a photo, but looking around, she seems pretty white.

Denise Huston

Oh my fuck I need to pause because this dude is raising my BP. Fuckin antivax nonsense.

RudeTea Rex

As a native American listener what the fuck was this movie... Anyway keep up the good work

Zosia Romanowski

Wait...wait...did a member of the "fuck your pronouns" brigade just give a gendered pronoun to a flag? So, you can't use "she/her" if you weren't born with a vagina, unless you're an inanimate object and then it's fine? Or maybe the rule is that you can't use "she/her" if you were born with a peen, and a flag doesn't have a peen so it's fine?

Denise Huston

"I refuse to learn," might as well be the tagine for this movie and also the GOP's official platform.

Denise Huston

"I'm 30 feet tall and can fly." IIRC he was Jonathan Kent in Smallville, so maybe he can call Tom Welling to help him.

V0ldek

Deeply touching psychological drama about a severely troubled veteran. Masterful, subtle highlighting of systematic issues such as lack of VA mental health safety net and gun safety regulation. A truly terrifying deep dive into the heart of darkness of Louisiana.

Aaron

Le sigh… Eli made some joke about the character eating at a Mexican place so that’s how you know he’s not racist. I’ve actually heard that. From my conservative family. In earnest. Yep.

Barbara Forrest-Ball

Alright guys, enough with the boomer jokes. 🤨 This boomer listens to the GAMcast every week.

Markus Nävergård

" do you dress like your ancestors?" No, but by that mindset, we´d either all be dressed in animal furs or naked.

Clockworkk

Listening to this episode again because it’s so goddamn funny. I desperately hope that John Schneider has heard this review because you know how mad he’d be about it.

Markus D

I haven't seen her, but her NOT being black makes a lot more sense considering how virulently racist the guy was the whole time.

Markus D

I genuinely can't comprehend how those flavour profiles don't clash.

Lexie Miller

It’s a sweetening syrup! It’s not that far off from Carmel or toffee sauce. Try it!

Markus Nävergård

two scenarios i could see with the native american neighbour. 1. He gives Jon Schneider his ( native american) ethnecity and Jon stares in horror as their skin color switches so now Jon has to suffer from the same hate speech and racism as his Neighbour. 2. The neighbour gives Jon a peace offering of Small pox blankets " and this is why i do not like the flag, get it Jon?"
