Every generation at one table.
A monthly dinner and screening for men and teenage guys. We share a meal inspired by the setting, talk around the table, then settle in for a short historical briefing and a film or series.
NEXT GATHERING
· 6:00 PM Eastern
A home in Monrovia, MD, outdoors in the backyard. The address is shared with guests who RSVP.
Men and teenage guys: friends, neighbors, family, and their friends. No history background needed, just an appetite. Greyhound is rated PG-13.
Dinner first, film after: a chili cookoff around the table, then Greyhound (2020) after a short briefing on the real convoy battle behind it.
The table. Dinner comes first, and the menu follows the map: Calvados-glazed ribs for Normandy, carbonnade smash burgers and frites for Bastogne, tarte flambée out of the pizza oven for Alsace, Bavarian roast chicken for the last stop in Berchtesgaden. Most people bring a dish or a drink. Special nights, like a chili cookoff, break the rule on purpose.
The screening. Films and series follow the history in order, with a short briefing before we watch. We just finished Band of Brothers: ten episodes, Toccoa to the Alps. How we choose what to watch · Suggest a screening
Coming. Men and teenage guys: friends, neighbors, family, and their friends. It's not a club or a church event, just people who know each other. RSVP on the event's Partiful link so we can plan food, and bring someone.
