Sup, guys? Heard the new rap CD? Yo, I don't know what I dig more, hip-hop, crunk, or serving my country.
speaker_5SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
You know, what happened next was, you know, they'd open their mouth, they'd speak, they'd get laughed at, they'd get called Polacks, and they didn't want to go through that.

And I also think it wouldn't hurt you to talk to a therapist about your bathroom issues, because there's clearly something going on there.
Luke BurbankHOST
All right, hello, good morning, and welcome everyone to a Tuesday edition of TBTL, the show that just might be too beautiful to live.
Al SjoerdsmaHOST
Eddie had kept it that way.
Al SjoerdsmaHOST
And how about this line? except for a Polack named Pete Vladek.
Al SjoerdsmaHOST
Now, in the story, Eddie and Pete were together in World War II, and they fought in the Battle of the Bulge.
Al SjoerdsmaHOST
And certainly, Pete had been tough enough that winter night in 1944 when they were serving in the rifle company at a place they called the Bulge.
Al SjoerdsmaHOST
Sergeant Eddie Scarzi got a medal, the kind they give you for gallantry above and beyond the call of duty.
Al SjoerdsmaHOST
They promoted him from staff to master sergeant, so he had three rockers with the stripes.
Al SjoerdsmaHOST
All the Polack got was a hole in his shoulder and the Purple Heart, the piece of tin they give you when you forget to duck.
Al SjoerdsmaHOST
So now back to Eddie and Faye, who is still called the blonde at this point.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
Yeah.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
And, um, I know a lot of people would think that, um, Weird Al Yankovic is part of a tribe, but no, he's a Polack.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
Yeah.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Oh, he is.
Brian SwiftGUEST
And halfway through the day, you're having a beer with them.
Brian SwiftGUEST
I mean, I have Polack friends.
Brian SwiftGUEST
Can't you catch a football, you Polack? You know, I mean, we were all over the place with each other.
Brian SwiftGUEST
We called each other fag.
Brian SwiftGUEST
We called each other gay.
Kenneth IrvinGUEST
The Italians, they were down on Fourth Street.
Kenneth IrvinGUEST
The Aryans, Russians and Polacks, we were up on the hill.
DardarHOST
So they did separate to a degree, except when he went to work, because everybody worked at Bethlehem Steel.
Kenneth IrvinGUEST
Well, yeah, but, for example, my grandfather went to work at Bethlehem Steel about 1960 or 17.
Tucker CarlsonHOST
In fact, people were hesitant even to name their ancestry.
Tucker CarlsonHOST
Again, if you're in some big eastern city, yeah, the Italians and the Polacks and, you know, famously West Side Story stuff.
Tucker CarlsonHOST
But most Americans, certainly in the Sun Belt, in the emerging states, the growing states, did not identify themselves by their race or their ethnicity.
Tucker CarlsonHOST
Because tribalism, despite the propaganda you doubt was heard, was not the defining fact of American life, but it is becoming the defining fact of American life, as it always does through mass migration.
Joe McClaneHOST
I remember, too, the Polish used to be the butt of jokes when I was a kid.
Joe McClaneHOST
Polacks, these come Polacks.
Joe McClaneHOST
Why? Why, though? Why is that? I don't actually know.
Joe McClaneHOST
The propaganda in the USA was there.
Jerry LewandowskiHOST
The boys, I'm sure you guys will appreciate it.
Jerry LewandowskiHOST
All the Polacks on the opposite end of this brand.
Jerry LewandowskiHOST
You know what I'm talking about.
GioHOST
Yeah.
Nick ReedHOST
I mean, maybe you'd hear one on television, but, but the sort of jokes, "You know how many this and that?" And a common theme of joke w-w-were the Polish.
Nick ReedHOST
"How many Polacks does it take to do this? What did the Polacks say to this person and that person?" And they were all based off the stereotype that Polish people were not very smart.
Nick ReedHOST
And this was...
Nick ReedHOST
And, uh, there's variations of the evolution of the, the stereotype of the Polish not being very smart, and having, [clears throat] that stereotype created to the points where the jokes, I mean, joke after joke, uh, you know, sort of like, "Your mom is so fat." Remember that in, like, the '90s and the aughts? That was a big, "Your mom is so fat." Well, that, that...
Ty BrickerHOST
We try to get to a week, like I said, but I had a little bit of a kind of a family reunion on my mom's side.
Ty BrickerHOST
My uncle, Rick Winglakowski, a bunch of Polacks on my mom's side.
Ty BrickerHOST
Man, try to spell that name, Joel Winglakowski.
Ty BrickerHOST
It's a pretty serious name right there, homie.
Ty BrickerHOST
She was still pretty super cognitively aware of it.
Ty BrickerHOST
But my voice is a little bit...
Ty BrickerHOST
Listen, the Polacks party pretty hard, homie.
Ty BrickerHOST
They party pretty hard.
