Boy oh boy does Kara have an episode for you. In one of the biggest dumpster fires in American history, Kara dives into the first half of the Vietnam War. Yes! technically it's a "police action" but let's face it... it's an actual war when we look at how many people were involved and how many died on both sides.
 
In this part 1 episode Kara takes some of us down memory lane and the rest of us down a vivid history lesson into the factors that resulted in America sending literal teenagers to the jungles of Vietnam in the mid 1960s. Hopefully by the end of this episode you'll be able to go to your history teacher (assuming they're still alive or not locked up in a retirement community) and tell them how was it that America got involved in Vietnam and probably even be able to teach them a lesson or two in the process.
