Introduction 0:00 - 22:46
Since it had been quite a while since we last recorded, essentially the gap you experience between podcast posts, we start by getting back into the groove of things. This includes my failed attempt at keeping things brief with what we each watched on our own time and the return of Nolan's Nazi loving ways!

Winter Light 22:46 - 54:22
This episode focuses on one of Dan's favorite movies, a critically acclaimed cinematic classic, Ingmar Bergman's Winter Light. The movie sums up the entire purpose of why I wanted to start this podcast from the "everyman's" perspective. Some philosophical discussion ensues as we all learn a little bit more about each other through the experience of watching this film



Closing 54:22 - 58:12
Wrapping it up we decided that Garrett's pick for next time, since he wasn't here this time, will be Precious! We'll see how that turns out!
