In two episodes, the hosts referenced the book while discussing World War I themes, noting that it was a great novel and that it surpassed the movie adaptation. One speaker admitted a mix‑up with another WWI story but still affirmed the title’s quality, while the other mentioned reading it in relation to the armistice anniversary.

Episode: Ep 121: Chip & Dale vs. Chippendales

It was a very good movie and the fourth time they've made it into a movie. It was dubbed into English, which initially bugged the speaker but eventually they got used to it. It was based on a book.

"

And I guess they've made, I guess it was a huge book. And then this is like the fourth time they've made the movie.

It's in German, but they dub it in English for us. So like it doesn't quite match up. And at first you're like, oh, this is going to bug me.

Well, I've seen the original or I don't like the one from way back, Waback.

I got to see that. That's crazy that they were like, hey, that movie everyone loves that I think is like one of the AFI top 100 movies and all that. Let's remake that.
