Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Hey weirdos, I'm Elena. I'm Ash. And this is Morbid.
Yay.
And you know what's crazy? We don't have any business. No business. No real business.
No, and I sound more like a real person this time.
Yeah.
You know somebody literally said who narrated the last Morbid?
Yeah.
And the thing is, this is why you need to listen to the beginning of the episode. Because I told you. This is where we tell you if one of us is sick, we might sound a little weird or like, you know, whatever's going on.
I just love that somebody was like, who the fuck was that? It's like, I'm sorry, okay?

Chapter 2: What happened during the Pickwick Club disaster?
I love that. As long as they knew what to say to the man at the door. Stop it. Which is a speakeasy.
I'm so obsessed with that. Have you ever been to a speakeasy? Yes.
I love speakeasies.
It's just, it's got such a vibe.
That's the thing. Like the 20s were like not great for women. No. And like not great for like many people. Not great. The vibe though. Yeah. The aesthetic. The aesthetic, honey. That's all I say when I say I love the 20s. Yeah. I don't want to be there. No. I want to visit.
I want us to like dress like we're in the 20s again and for places to look like we're in the 20s. That's what I want. But to have modern day respect and understanding of community and culture.
That's exactly what I want. I want what we thought the 2020s was going to be. Remember when we all entered 2020 and we said, it's the roaring 20s.
You sent a shiver down my spine just now.
And we all said, I'm so excited. It's the roaring 20s back again.

Chapter 3: Who were the key figures involved in the Pickwick Club's history?
a second, right? Yeah, let him live. This time, though, things would not go as smoothly as they had on the previous occasion. When they entered the club and announced themselves, the entire room erupted into chaos.
Oh my god.
By the time the whole thing came to an end, nine men were arrested on charges of public drunkenness, and one man, 29-year-old William Fitzhenry, was arrested for assaulting an officer.
Damn, of course William Fitzhenry was arrested for assaulting an officer.
William Fitzhenry stays assaulting a police officer.
Yeah, he's assaulting a police officer to this day. Fitzhenry is the most fucking Irish name, Boston name I could ever hear.
Now, according to the Boston Globe, Ken, when the police, quote, dropped in unexpectedly at the club, there was considerable excitement. And that while the excitement was at its height, Fitzhenry struck the officer, knocking him down and almost rendering him unconscious.
If there's one thing Fitz Henry is going to do, it's knock your ass out.
It's one thing. Now... Less than a month later, the pickwick was back on the front pages when a group of drunk young men led police on a two-mile car chase through Boston's narrow winding streets until the pursuing officers managed to force the car off the road and take them into custody. They had all been drinking at the pickwick prior to getting in the car.

Chapter 4: What led to the Pickwick Club's reputation for chaos?
That's crazy. Yeah, a lot of 30-year-olds. A lot of, you know, like people... Just having fun. Yeah. Just young people. Like it sucks. They weren't doing anything wrong. They were just celebrating a holiday. Yeah. It's really sad. And I really hate that it doesn't have a plaque. I think that that garage, that parking garage needs to have a plaque.
I think we should write to Maura Healy.
I was like, we, I was looking up how to petition to do this. And I think we are going to try to petition to do this. I just think it's right. I do too. And I don't like that. I didn't know that this was a thing.
Yeah, we should learn about this in school. Because you, I mean, you do learn about the coconut grove.
And like the molasses flood. Yeah, it's all part of the history. Like people lost their lives in this stuff. We should know about it. Absolutely. Especially you're just parking in a garage. You don't know that like underneath was the site of a horrific tragedy. I really do feel like it should be something else. We're going to see what we can do to petition this.
Yeah, we're going to try to talk to Mara. We're going to get some signatures.
Yeah. Let's go. Maybe we can start something up. We'll get some information gathered and hopefully update you next episode.
Yeah, we'll let you guys know how it's going. That's our new thing right now. We're going to do this.
Yeah, we're planning a live show and we're planning a memorial.
