It's interesting, and you do well with the continuities often being so tenuous. I can imagine that with New York changing so quickly, a lot has to be "...not here any more but this is the space where...". That's quite hard to get excited about, but I like your conversations. Thanks.

Great video! I just completed an analysis and review of Miller's Crossing, inspired by Hammett's "The Glass Key. " My fellow streamers and I were trying to visualize some of the scenes, left "generic" in the book and the film. Wish I had seen your video before reading the book. I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

It is truly remarkable and inspiring to witness the profound impact of August Wilson's work and the characters he created. His unwavering commitment to prioritizing character development has left an indelible mark on the world of theater. I express my sincere gratitude for your filming this.

You are like two highschool sweethearts! I love it! I wish I knew you personally! Some background info. on Fitzgerald, my favorite writer: Fitzgerald worked in Hollywood before, once in 1927 and later (mostly out of desperation), in 1937. Sadly his writing style was not suited to movie scripts and he continued his struggle with severe alcoholism. He moved to this apartment complex on North Laurel so that he could be next do Sheilah Graham...who lived on the next street over, Hayworth Ave. By the way, Scott would walk 5 minutes to Sunset Blvd to get his cigarettes at Schwab's Drugstore (there is a mall there now...with a Starbucks). Fitzgerald's survived his first heart attack there. He then decided, because his apartment was on the top floor and required walking many stairs, to move in with Sheilah...whose Hayworth Ave. apartment was on the bottom floor. He had been reading a newsletter from his Alma Mater, Princton University when he suddenly rose from the sofa and stumbled to the fireplace and leaned on the mantel. He collapsed and died of a massive heart attack. He never finished "The Love Of The Last Tycoon". Literary critic and writer Edmund Wilson, a close friend...using Fitzgerald's notes, finished the novel. His institutionalized wife Zelda Sayre died in a fire in 1948 along with several other women. She had been heavily sedated and locked in her room at the Highland Hospital in Asheville, North Carolina.She might of been the love of HIS life...but it is said that she was often jealous of Scott's writing and would either sabotage his writing efforts by dragging him to parties and other social gatherings. Or worse, bring him alcoholic drinks while he worked at his desk, knowing that Scott was desperately trying to stay away from drink. Scott would die at 44 years of age, believing he was a complete failure. His friend and manager had finally quit loaning him money. He could not know that in the spring of 1942, mere months after the United States' entered World War II, an association of publishing executives created the Council On Books In Wartime. They began to distribute paperback Armed Services Editions of books, the stated purpose was to entertain young soldiers who were often bored. The Great Gatsby became immensely popular both during and after the war. Scott had written one of the greatest American novels ever, if not THE greatest! Take care.

Where do you live? When you think about places like Texas, they have been BBQ”ing briskets forever and it is super popular and the only cuts I ever see in Southern California for corned beef are the point and flat from a brisket.

I'm not saying this guy doesn't have great food. I don't think anyone butcher's a 2000# Steer anymore. Nowadays, cattle are butchered around 1000 to 1100 pounds tops. A steer that big would be several years old and it costs too much to feed one that long.

I’ve never been to Langers but I’ll try to if I get out in that area. I brine and smoke my own pastrami, made from brisket point and not beef belly like he does. Norm is right on the money on the process. Cure, rub, smoke it, then slow cook pastrami to 200 to 203 internal temp then let it rest for at least two hours. Hand slice after resting and heat to whatever temp you like. It’s seriously one of the best meats around.

This was a great video about a place I live near, but take for granted. I've hosted my own class, back in the 90's at Quarry Farm, for High School students and even done caricature drawings of Twain for Elmira College. I didn't know they closed down visitors from going up to the home. I was asked to draw caricatures of those who've portraid Twain like Bill Erwin and Hal Holbrook.

Pastrami comes from the middle east and was called "Pasterna". and was brined and smoked. A Pastrami Rueben sandwich is called a "Rachel Sandwich." The term "Sandwich" is English and comes from The Earl of Sandwich.
