We've all seen and loved military family reunion videos--but what happens sometimes after the video ends and life continues? Mike and Dan talk about William Wyler's 1945 masterpiece The Best Years of Our Lives and how it answers this question with a beautifully geometric screenplay and incredible performances. It's a longer episode, but the film deserves it--just like Homer Parrish deserves to eat his pie in peace. So turn this on as you barhop through Boone City!
