Break open that gorgeous bottle of gin they said.. Drink it in honor of our Patron Saint of Thirst they said.. WELL WE DID! And welp, this is probably our most turnt #HistoricalNightcap yet #93percent! In this adjunct episode of #GentlemanJackCrack lots of gay screaming occurs as we delve into all of the angst currently engulfing our Ann(e)s. We discuss Anne Lister playing footsie with another gal in York, Ann Walker’s “diagnosis” from Dr. Belcombe, the grubbles that were still happening, and regretfully, that grubby little wretch Ainsworth and all the trouble he’s caused.

Gentleman Jack Crack - “Most Women are Dull and Stupid”

We’re halfway through the season guys! Can you believe it? In this midway point episode from #GentlemanJackCrack we discuss the sapphic angst beginning to surface between our ladies and interrupt their peaceful grubbles. Ann Walker’s sleeves are the largest they’ve ever been, Anne gets dirty with the men again, and our Patron Saint of Thirst gets another letter. WHY ARE THERE SO MANY LETTERS?? We also get a cameo from Mariana Lawton and her brother (spoiler: it’s PETTY) in this recap of Gentleman Jack episode 4 “Most Women are Dull and Stupid”.

For our Patreon subscribers, you’ve probably already seen the first “watch along” we posted for this episode, but that’s now a thing! Please see below for relevant chapter marks + links, and follow us on all the things for daily talk of grubbling. @gentlemanjackcrack @gentlemancrack
