Wed, 29 Jul 2020 14:55:10 GMT

Hey ho! It's been 84 years, but we're finally back with the second half of this ridiculous 8 part saga! In this fifth chapter of the #HistoricalNightcap, we dive into year 1822 where Anne not only spent a great deal of time with and thinking about Mariana, but also with our favorite Georgian era drinker, Isabella Norcliffe. Love is complicated, and nothing about that changes in the year 1822. We also cover Anne visiting the Ladies of Llangollen and what it was like for her to experience "gay representation" for the first time. The lovely Miss Pickford also makes a cameo and Anne allows mans work to stir her desire for bad woman. If you're not drinking already, you may want to start as we continue on our journey of the bombastic grubble melodrama that is Anne Lister and Mariana Lawton.

To help keep ourselves organized, we've included a detailed chapter list below with time stamps and dates for each entry referenced, and as always, we love to hear from you. Feel free to reach out and follow us on all the things for daily talk of grubbling @gentlemancrack @gentlemanjackcrack

Hey ho Grubbleteers & greetings from Quarantine! It's been way too long, and we've missed you. Since you last heard from the us the world has changed rather drastically, but what hasn't changed is just how much Mariana makes us scream. And while we may have suffered through a half dozen emotional crisis to get here, the point is, we made it! We're here at the start of our most epic #HistoricalNightcap yet, the story of Anniana. The grubbles, the fights, the infidelity, the betrayals- we explore it all in this next series from #GentlemanJackCrack

Gentleman Jack Crack - "Why've You Brought That?" Part IV

Sun, 08 Dec 2019 15:35:49 GMT

CW: discussions on suicide, self harm

Nearly 2 hours to talk about the final 10min of episode 7? Why yes of course, because it was A LOT! Sally delivers an exquisite sequence of events for us to analyze. There's surrealism, magic mirrors, and quite possibly the best 4th wall break so far.

We return from our 3rd and final WHISKERmission with a bit of stalling as we mention a listener's recent inquiry about she-sheds and musings on Anne's first love, Eliza Raine. During the latter half of the episode we discuss Ann Walker, self harm, and known fandom opinions on this aspect of her story. These topics are very intense, please remember to always prioritize your mental health when listening.

Did you enjoy our interview with the Ann Walker Memorial Foundation? We hope so. May it act as a balm to your soul somewhat girding you for this next ridiculous section of our recap of Gentleman Jack episode 7 "Why've You Brought Mariana"... oh wait, is that not the title???

Determined to fight if they're not "going to Italy," everyone's not so favorite ex continues to try and burrow beneath Anne's skin with comment after unsavory comment. We're not gonna lie, there is a lot of goddamn screaming this episode, and there may be a wee bit of singing as we stall in the beginning.

Gentleman Jack Crack - "Go On Fearlessly" with the Ann Walker Memorial Foundation

Sun, 08 Dec 2019 11:04:56 GMT

Hi friends, and welcome to a very special episode of Gentleman Jack Crack! You’re halfway through the odyssey that is our recap of episode 7, and while the dolefuls are about to get way more intense, we're really excited to bring you this interview we did with Alexa & Susan, the two founders of the Ann Walker Memorial Foundation.

If you've been listening to this podcast for a while, it's no secret just how much we love our #PatronSaintofThirst Ann Walker. We've laughed for hours musing on her endless sleeves of thirst, and cried as we experienced her pain and revisited some of our own.

If there's one thing we lament most about Ann Walker's life, it was her lack of access to meaningful treatment, outside of the love, support and patience she received from Anne Lister. And rather poetically, the primary aim of the Ann Walker Memorial Foundation is to foster and support the mental health of LGBTQ+ youth across the globe! Yes, you read that right, THESE LADIES ARE THE SHIT! If you've not heard of them or the organization as yet, we are privileged to introduce you to them and their growing team of passionate volunteers.

Please visit the org online and donate if you can at: http://www.annwalkermemorialfoundation.org/

Gentleman Jack Crack - "Why've You Brought That?" Part II

Sun, 08 Dec 2019 04:37:35 GMT

Please be forewarned that there will be excessive and random screaming parsed throughout the rest of these recap episodes, and perhaps not always so sparse. There may actually be whole 5min intervals where the screaming does not stop. What can we say, Mariana was able to illicit many intense feelings from us.

During part II of our "Why've You Brought That" recap, Mrs. Lawton manages to desert her husband, go to Italy, and still piss off Anne Lister in what seems like just a few hours. We also get another glimpse into Ann Walker's private hell in Scotland, where the soundtrack is crying babies and Elizabeth's fearful sighs. Of course there are also many tangents to be had, including a quick mention of the Hollywood "Sewing Circle" and media properties Dickinson + Vita & Virginia.

We let a lot of theories drop this episode, feel free to write in at gentlemanjackcrack@gmail.com to tell us what you think or how ridiculous we are.

Gentleman Jack Crack - "Why've You Brought That?" Part I

Sun, 08 Dec 2019 00:40:36 GMT

Well friends and Grubbleteers, we're finally here! You are at the beginning of our most epic, most RIDICULOUS recap yet, which seems fitting for what's definitely (at least for us) the most infamous episode of season one of Gentleman Jack. We've managed to accrue an entire days worth of "mans work" content, which will be spread across 5 total episodes. Parts 1-4, with a special interlude episode featuring an interview with the incredible founders of the Ann Walker Memorial Foundation placed in the middle.

In this first part, we actually start off feeling pretty damn jaunty as our favorite version of Anne, "Dirty-Business Anne Lister" comes 'round for another visit. She valiantly defends Marian, get's in Christopher's face, and then makes him her son. WE'RE STILL NOT OVER IT!!! Grab a drink, or several, and join us for this Iliad length penultimate recap.

Gentleman Jack Historical Nightcap - Dolefuls Aplenty: Heartbreak, Family, and Insatiable Desire at Crow Nest Part II

Tue, 19 Nov 2019 16:48:04 GMT

After our GINtermission, we return with part two of this #HistoricalNightcap still sad, but always jaunty. In this back half we get into Anne Choma's brilliant companion book Gentleman Jack: The Real Anne Lister as we breakdown every moment leading up to Ann's departure. Turns out our #PatronSaintofThirst was thirsty as ever and sought to get Anne out of her braies. Captain Sutherland's mum is some how more awful than she appeared on the show, and snowfall makes Aunt Anne "wretched" as she imagines her niece jaunting to Crow Nest.

We also mention that hey, our website is now live! And we've got #GentlemanJackCrack swag available, including our beloved candle that we've gone on about for weeks. Plus we're doing a fundraising thing! In an effort to drive awareness and donations to the Ann Walker Memorial Foundation, we will be donating proceeds from all the merch featuring the "go on fearlessly" mantra, to this incredible and desperately needed organization. We have an interview with the 2 founders releasing soon with more info, but in the mean time, please visit GentlemanJackCrack.com to check some of the merch we have available.

Another intermission? We know, an excess of jaunt + a torrent of emotions, has resulted in yet another 2 part installment of #GentlemanJackCrack Is this becoming a thing now? Maybe…

Welp, hey ho, and welcome to Part II of our #GentlemanJackCrack recap on episode 6 entitled "Do Ladies Do That." As you might expect, rabid gay screaming continues, along with excessive laughter and more sobbing, as we dissect every frame of this extraordinary episode. Our Patron Saint of Thirst acts as both little spoon and big spoon in the SAME episode, and we’re still not over it.

We also mentioned another pair of IRL queer ladies, Lily Wust & Felice Schragenheim, played exquisitely in the film Aimee & Juguar, by actresses Juliane Köhler & Maria Schrader. Turns out this film is actually on Amazon Prime Video, should you be interested in checking it out. We discovered this after we finished recording, but wanted to make sure everyone was aware that it is available for viewing online.

Gentleman Jack Crack - "Do Ladies Do That?" Part I

Tue, 29 Oct 2019 11:03:04 GMT

In this installment of #GentlemanJackCrack we heap our eternal gratitude in drunken jaunty spades, onto show creator Sally Wainwright and stars Suranne Jones & Sophie Rundle, as we recap the most emotional episode of Gentleman Jack to date. It’s fair to say that like the Ann(e)s, we are in the “dolefuls”. Whilst we edited it out most of the audible sobbing, some sniffles remain as Terrance was completely unprepared for the intensity of their separation. We talk for hours about the Ann(e)s, their faith, their love, and their grubbles with of course lots of gay screaming, on this really sad- but still jaunty, episode of Gentlemen Jack Crack.

Mentioned in this episode, a performance of “Ne Me Quitte Pas” by Lidisi at the Royal Albert Hall to put you in the mood: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0-SN7oL6-E

In this first half, we revisit episode 5 of Gentleman Jack “Let’s Have Another Look at Your Past Perfect” once more, but this time with the invaluable insight of show creator Sally Wainwright. Immediately afterward, in response to a few listener requests, we do a deep dive into Angela Steidele’s book ‘Gentleman Jack: A biography of Anne Lister, Regency Landowner, Seducer and Secret Diarist’, where we discuss some of her controversial assertions and surprising revelations.
