In this episode we learn the name of the gentlemens’ club that hosts The Council of Nine is the Arena Club and much time is spent there. Due to that fact and the presence of Howard Stark and his standard level of intoxication and how much he parties there is quite a bit of drinking […]
Grand Central in the Chicago Loop: Income Tax in Chicago Edgewater neighborhood: Ward Eight in Evanston on the border of Chicago:
In Agent Carter Season 1 we see the tally being effected by the New York setting, heavy 50s urban cocktailing and the overwhelming prevalence of Scotch and bourbon, the Russian plot line providing a little vodka and the playboy status of Howard Stark bumping up the general intoxication of the season. It’ll be interesting to […]
We have done a number of episodes that have taken us into the realm of gross. Sometimes it is the ingredients, sometimes it is the backstory, sometimes it is because we are gross. The Monkey Gland is a special one because hits on all three! Join us as we break down the why Harry MacElhone […]
