On this ANZAC Day COTF episode, named after the motto of the Vietnam Veterans Association of Australia, we open with The Last Post and discuss our thoughts on the day, the Vietnam War, war films and documentaries, including 'Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan'. The AFL coaches doing TikTok dances cop a serve. We discuss the new Michael Jordan / Chicago Bulls documentary on Netflix, 'The Last Dance', as well as the greats of NBA. We also talk about Italy's run at the 1994 Word Cup in the USA after Simon rewatched the Italy vs Nigeria 2nd round match. Also on our TV screen this week was the West Coast Eagles vs Port Adelaide elimination final from 2017. Some billionaires are more equal than others. We heap praise (read: scorn) on our favourite ABC Chief Economics Correspondent who doesn't want us to talk about the economy. And we finish with a very poignant tune about the PTSD that Vietnam Veterans experienced on their return from that terrible conflict: Redgum's 'I Was Only 19' with an intro from singer John Schumann. #LestWeForget Follow us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ChroniclesOnTheFly and on Instagram at www.instagram.com/chroniclesontheflypod
