An excellent podcast to listen to, especially during the quarantine of 2020. I am sad Typhoid Mary did not have access to this comical commentary on some of our favorite classic cinematographic adventures during her time on North Brother Island; however, I am relieved to have been born in a time with these movies and these narrators offering a diverse and comedic commentary of films past. I only hope that they have the time to review G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. I have not tried the cocktails for these movies, but will update my review accordingly when I have.
