    Band of Brothers Ep. 2 Timestamps:

    00:00:00.000 - 00:05:30.675 - Intro, “Is this episode visually dark or is it just me?” - Dylan, these VFX hold up so well at 23 years later, and looking at some of the tricks they use to mask the computer work. 

    00:05:30.676 - 00:09:13.051 - Overview of the episode, the interviews with the actual members of easy company are so powerful, how do you mentally process or prepare to deal with war?

    00:09:13.052 - 00:16:16.471 - We got our first taste of the repercussions of war (Meehan & Hall), Winters starting to develop as a leader of men, Has Winters squashed the beef with Guarnere?, and we ask if each episode will focus on a different main character?

    00:16:16.472 - 00:24:28.000 - Trying to wrap our heads around Malarkey risking his life for a Luger, this show does a good job of showing certain things (picking up enemy weapons, running out of ammo, etc.) that other WW2 shows don’t, and it’s crazy how the tactics that Easy Company uses to take the artillery are still taught today.

    00:24:28.001 - 00:32:02.875 - This episode doesn’t give you a chance to breathe in the action or cinematography, this is the episode that hooked us on the show, and streaming/bingeing vs watching something episodic/weekly, and the lack of “filler episodes” in streaming content.

    00:32:02.876 - 00:33:54.886 - discussing how this episode released 2 days before 9/11, the rise/popularity in pro-american media post-9/11, and did that timing impact this shows legacy? 

    00:33:54.887 - 00:37:10.204 - Are we gonna be constantly on edge throughout the show? Are we skipping around a lot to tell the full story? Will the Nazi Map that Winters finds lead to something greater or is it just a throwaway line?

    00:12:30.750 - 00:18:04.750 - We deep dive into Sobel as an interesting and complex ‘villain’ of the first episode, how Easy Company rallies around Winters, and how Sobel was basically sent to M.A.S.H.

    00:18:04.751 - 00:25:53.723 - Dylan is intrigued by the story structure, this isn’t a pilot episode but its a huge building into a BIG episode 2, Ben loves the cinematography and Dylan praises how well the VFX holds up.

    00:25:53.724 - 00:34:58.772 - Are you hooked/sold on the series from episode 1? Dylan is excited to see the character development and camaraderie over the series, Ben used all of his Will Power to not continue watching, and we discuss how this series’ cliffhangers are perfect for streaming.

    00:34:58.773 - 00:42:58.368 - How was the casting? David Schwimmer was an interesting choice for a military officer but plays the role so well, we’re interested to see how Nixon and Winters will develop over time, and how the new officer will play into the Company’s dynamic.

    For the rim:

    1 package (1.2 ounces) freeze-dried strawberries

    2 Tablespoons sugar

    1–2 limes, cut into wedges



    Instructions

    1.) In a blender or food processor, grind the freeze dried strawberries until a fine dust. Place in a shallow dish with the sugar and stir to combine.

    2.) Using a lime wedge, wet the rim of the glass and then coat the whole rim in the strawberry and sugar mixture.

    3.) Add ice, Ginger Beer, and Lime juice to the glass.

    4.) Separately, add the 2 oz of Empress Gin. The Gin is naturally blue, like the “Water of Life,” but when added to acidic liquids, turns purple then pink. Yeah… it’s pretty cool.
