Jim and A.Ron embark on a new venture, as they open The Speakeasy, their podcast covering the final season of HBO’s fantastic Boardwalk Empire.  Join us as we discuss why BWE is so criminally underrated, how the show will deal with its Margaret problem, how Winter and company will deal with the 7 year flash forward, the difficulties of casting a young Steve Buscemi, and A.Ron grapples with his disappointment at only getting eight episodes to say goodbye and frustration with the USA’s drug policy, AKA Prohibition 2.0.
