I don't want to be a product of my environment, I just want to start a flame in your heart.

sir....an episode about Boston, MA? the place where I am from? thank you sir. YOU are Boston Strong sir

pig_return

You're right about 'townies' - I also don't know why I'm mentioning this now but the most "Boston" moment I've ever had in my entire life was when I heard a Boston cop in Chinatown on a cell phone say, in full Boston accent: (in which I will emphasize here) "I gotta bootleg copy of ghostrida last night...fuckin' remahkable!"

I've had to pause this so many times already - in particular the Silverchair/Nirvana joke

I was worried trying to do the accent would seem like I was being cruel instead of affectionate. "He was a cahhpit layah fa Jawdan Mahhsh." I love it.

"so what if we combine the Boston lad with MK Ultra" [wildly shaking my head no, eyes darting around the room]

so glad I watched this movie for the first time two weeks ago

Hell fuckin yeah

You mention Costello grooming Colin "in a non-British way", but Scorcese implied something darker in a 2006 interview with French mag Positif. He said, "It was up to us to give it an extra turn of the screw by imagining, for example, that they are all sexually linked, Billy, Matt, Madolyn and even Costello. Who knows what Costello did to Colin as a child?" In the context of the clergy abuse crisis and rumors about Whitey's own sexual history, it's a pretty harrowing hint.

Insanely good

Boston Shithead is a species of the genus Masshole.

was at a party in waterbury, ct like almost 20 years ago that turned into a wild fight - bunch of dudes from boston showed up and announced themselves by yelling “we’re boston FSU motherfuckers” or something like that - a friend of my mine ended up getting stabbed

A townie is a guy who lives and dies on the same block. Technically it's a Boston thing. But basically the whole of Massachusetts pretends to be from "the greater Boston area" and then they stretch that even further and claim to be from Boston proper (even though they actually live in a suburb two towns over from Quincy). In my book, there are townies all over. If you can find a guy with a scratch ticket and a nip in the same sweatpants pocket, you found a townie. My dad grew up on the north shore, where you could see the city from across the ocean. He still talks about the townies from his hometown even though he was at least 45 minutes from Boston

Your info on Southie gentrifying is 100% correct. The dump apartment Matt Damon's character in Good Will Hunting lived in now rents for $4500 a month.

George P

One thing both Good Will Hunting and The Departed illustrate well is the class dynamics of Boston and the constant clash between the working class who have been in the area for generations and the upper class (or aspiring upper class) who come to one of the many colleges in and around the city and stay there after graduation. When the shitheads go to the Harvard bar in Good Will Hunting, that's only a few stops away from Southie on the subway but it might as well be a different world, they all look around the bar like they're tourists when they walk in. And yeah, Walhberg is brilliant in the Departed. When he first starts going after Billy for being two different people with two different accents I remember recoiling in my seat in the theatre, realizing I'd done the same thing as a kid depending on which parent I was with. No organized crime connections in my family but I could totally relate to Billy's feeling of being between two worlds and not fully welcome in either. Certainly not a Boston-only dynamic but it's probably more common here than in many places. Really enjoyed the episode.

I had exactly the same reaction to that scene. No OC or divorce, but the way I had to act one way in "the neighbourhood" and a totally different way with my more middle class friends, who all had very good diction and lots of money. Not fully welcome in either world sums it up nicely.

In the late 80s Whitey and his partner Steve Flemmi started investing in that real estate boom, trying to profit on the gentrification that was loosening their grip on the neighborhood. The original American tale, mass murder laundered into real estate.

I live in Boston. Have you seen The Friends of Eddie Coyle? I highly recommend it. Great Boston crime movie from the 70’s. It is also about federal informants, and even has a Bulger-inspired character.

Slightly informal stream of consciousness episodes like this sometimes almost might be my favorite

Karl Childers

i also enjoy the bite-sized lighter fare, wouldn't mind hearing more episodes like this even in the absence of unexpected laptop death

Sean Henshaw

Ghost what’s this outro song?

snafujesus

Just paid the wall but it seems like I can’t get all the eps listed under Posts and have to go into Edit Pledge and re-confirm every time to access the full listing. if I navigate away the list is gone when I return

Donkey Bong

Hey, anyone know what is the email to get in contact with Matt? I wan to send a story idea…

Andrew Morales

Curious what your thoughts are on Black Mass, the Bulger flick with Johnny Depp playing Whitey

To my ear the guitar player sounds like Brian Setzer in so many ways (even down to phrasing and tone) so that's who I'd wager. I'm not 100% on that, but best guess; would definitely like to know too though.

The Boston Shithead also known as, “that fahkin khed ovah theah” would consider being called a townie as fighting words. In Mass pretty much everyone outside of Boston is a townie. I live in Worcester which is smaller shittier Boston but I call everyone 10 mins outside of the city a townie. Their phenotype is drinking Natty Ice, stained wife beater, shitty snapback, drives a dirt bike, etc
