Band of Brothers

yes he's like the da yeah yeah And it has...

So the guy who plays Axelrod in Billions is, like, the main guy in Band of Brothers, which we just finished for the first time.

Ah.

It's a

I know.

How can I respect you? But also

Jimmy Fallon has a cameo in Band of Brothers, which really brought me out of the whole thing.

He had no business being there.

that's good.

After Aliens, we've got Band of Brothers at 25-year anniversary.

And really looking forward to that because we're going to be joined by my own law brother, Brian8063.

And I noticed, David, you dropped in that the Lawhounds Battalion has seemed fit for this episode to send us some additional resources.

I mean, and that's...

I mean, it's funny

mentioning that I'd watched Legacy, Band of Brothers, 25 years because it was Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers that really got production locked into this idea of if you want to create realistic looking military films and TV shows, you've really got to kind of put the actors through at least some element of boot camps.

Right,

Um, one big TV I use for like zoom and presentations and then two smaller TVs and one, I got Bloomberg going all the time.

And on the other smaller TV, I'm usually like watching a TV show or movie and all year long, I've just been playing band of brothers.

I think I'm literally like it goes, it plays through like once a day, right? Like if you start it in the morning and I do, I just turn it on when I get into my office, it comes on and you'll play through a band of brothers in one day.

I've watched it ever.

I've watched the entire show.

I mean, I'm not really watching it, but it's just playing while I'm doing stuff.

Watch the entire show every single day, all year.

So like I literally have about 300 playthroughs of Band of Brothers this year.

He's calling us into a plan for him.

So every year I watch Band of Brothers.

Good or bad, this is what I do.

It's probably twice a year now.

Band of Brothers.

This is a legacy edition.

This is in World War II.

And also, do you know who that is? No.

That's Bull from Band of Brothers.

no shit it is yeah yeah

wow um i was like see that's what i'm talking about none of those characters were developed off and i know they were short and i think it was a time yeah

Now, look, you don't want to do actual research.

Go watch Band of Brothers.

Go watch the Pacific.

You get a you get a gist, right? But you go do some actual research on what those other cultures were doing to human beings and that these people who lived in this country and those the allies who said, look, we don't treat people like this.

God has a plan for me, and I need to stay true to that course.

And again, finishing up Band of Brothers, I watch it probably twice a year now, but watching that and just seeing how they were called, they trained together, they worked together, they were just on mission for, well, during World War II.

And just amazing how focused they were and how they fought for one another.

And if we truly understood that they were fighting for one another to be on God's mission together, then there is going to be that accountability, but there's going to be that caring, that empathy, that concern for one another that we don't let our Christian brother or sister fall or slip away, but we just want to encourage them and be there for them.

We're back in the studio for sessions.

We are going to be taking the Band of Brothers, the Pacific, and Masters of the Sky and turning it into a song called Tanks for the Memories.

Tanks for the Memories, Alexis.

What do you think about that? You don't think about that.

and the green mile yes those stories that he that he writes are fantastic yeah but he's so good at just switching genres yeah

yeah now i'm i'm more of a like a romance comedy but i like the action give me a war movie i mean i actually just watched band of brothers again i've probably watched that i used to watch like two or three times a year so you know because i'm kind of a history buff so yeah like

so what's your favorite war movie oh like the one that had the most impact

Probably Saving Private Ryan.
