1:12:03
Great week.
1:12:46
That's about as good a polka
as you'll ever hear.

1:12:53
You want Cronauer
back on the air.

1:12:58
We've gotten duffel bags
filled with information asking
for Cronauer's reinstatement.

1:13:01
The men all hate Hauk.
They want Cronauer back.

1:13:05
He's an exhilarating personality,
and polkas are just no substitute.

1:13:08
- I think I see a pattern forming here.
- Sir, these letters are unequivocal.

1:13:12
Uh, e.g. "Hey, Hauk, eat a bag
of shit. You suck."

1:13:15
That's pretty much to the point, sir.
Not much grey area in this one.

1:13:18
We got one positive call from some guy
in Wichita who thought Hauk's comedy
was visionary and interesting.

1:13:22
The other 1,100 calls said that the man
can't do comedy to save his dick.

1:13:27
- That's a direct quote, sir.
- I've taken 90 calls this morning.
They just don't like Hauk.

1:13:31
From a marine in Da Nang: "Captain Hauk
sucks the sweat off a dead man's balls."

1:13:36
I have no idea what that means, sir,
but it seems very negative to me.

1:13:40
I think the troops are tryin'
to tell us somethin', fellas.

1:13:44
Sir, if it is my programming
choices, I can change.

1:13:47
I've been broadcasting
the polkas because I thought
a certain segment of the men...

1:13:50
weren't represented by Cronauer's
broadcasts of rock and roll.

1:13:54
But I can easily play
an occasional Gary Lewis record.

1:13:56
It doesn't make a damn whether
you play polkas or don't play polkas.
Military politics.
