DoughboyHOST
Hey, you know what?
Munchie BGUEST
what?I can't wait until Adam is back in the building, 'cause I'm, I'ma let him know that, you know, Doughboy feel that Adam was wrong and Brandon was right.
DoughboyHOST
Okay.
Munchie BGUEST
Right? That's how you feel, 'cause-
Munchie BGUEST
Hold y'all vote, dog.
MooseHOST
For the future, uh, rounds, withhold your vote if you're not sure.
MooseHOST
If it, if it's flip-floppy, if you thought Doughboy was cooking and you wanted to vote for Ricky, make sure that you don't fucking vote then and withhold it.

Uh, but right now-

Now, Doughboy is a name which the soldiers use, but strictly speaking, it refers only to an infantryman.
speaker_2NARRATOR
The origin of the name is shrouded in mystery.
speaker_2NARRATOR
One officer, probably an infantryman, has written that the infantrymen are called Doughboys because they are the flower of the army.

Another story has it that during some maneuvers in Texas, an artilleryman, comfortably perched on a gun, saw a soldier hiking by in the thick, sticky Texas mud.
speaker_2NARRATOR
The mud was up to the shoe tops of the infantryman, and the upper part which had dried looked almost white.
speaker_2NARRATOR
"Say," shouted the artilleryman, "what have you been doing, walking in dough?" And so the men who march have been Doughboys ever since.

Paris did not let the lack of a name come between her and the soldiers.

The theaters gave the Americans almost as much recognition as the press.
BrentHOST
Unfortunately, the band's best song, Satanic Disco Machine, isn't included for reasons that I've long since forgotten.
BrentHOST
The next five tunes are by Stab, the band, which I was also in, and the final three tracks are punk covers that John recorded in Toledo with the Doughboys as his backing band.
RyanHOST
Whoa.
RyanHOST
Oh my God.
BrentHOST
So I haven't had a chance to dive into all of it, but there will definitely be a follow up once I do.
BrentHOST
And I have to hear some of this stuff.
BrentHOST
Like, were you aware of these Doughboys tracks, Ryan?
RyanHOST
No, definitely not.
