1942 War Propaganda, You Can't Say No to a Soldier
The hosts analyze a 1942 song from the film "Iceland" titled "You Can't Say No to a Soldier," characterizing it as blatant war propaganda. The lyrics encourage women to be "dutiful" to servicemen to maintain morale during a desperate period of the war. They contrast this total-war social engineering with the "insincere" nature of modern conflicts.
