In this episode, Mike Okay visits a Chinese “red tourism” site with Connor from Small Brained American, exploring a patriotic theme park built around China’s revolutionary history and the Long March. The park presents Communist Party history as an immersive attraction, complete with Red Army restaurants, shooting games, propaganda-style murals, replica weapons, uniforms, and staged battle experiences. Mike and Connor begin by joking about the surreal idea of foreigners taking part in a Chinese communist roleplay attraction, then try the shooting range, talk through the Kuomintang, Mao, the Red Army, Zunyi, and the brutal Long March, which passed through the surrounding mountains and became a major part of Communist revolutionary mythology.

The episode becomes increasingly absurd as they are dressed in Red Army uniforms, handed toy rifles, and pulled into a full battle reenactment with other visitors and performers. They march, run, shout, fire blanks or props, accidentally shoot at the wrong side, and joke their way through the confusion while trying to understand commands in Chinese. The whole experience feels like a mix of Disney World, military reenactment, school field trip, and state-sponsored patriotism, with foreign tourists now joining an activity originally designed to teach Chinese revolutionary identity. By the end, Mike reflects on whether the park is really that different from patriotic battle reenactments elsewhere, or whether it is simply propaganda made entertaining, while Connor jokingly embraces his new role as a “party member.”
