The point of museums? In any culture it is to show off the finn st that culture has weather it is in Chinese, European or whatever. I feel we should have no guilt for being eurocentric. We are a culture in the west that is dominated and built by European culture and we make up the ethnic majority there should be no question or shame that or museums are eurocentric. I love the f ick because unlike me the Carnegie museum that displays mostly contemporary trash due to its current curator it shows off the finest European/American European culture has to offer. Art is supposed to be beautiful gracefully delicate and embody values and deals that lift us about the beast. It shows beauty even in suffering . Art and architecture today is uninspired, utilitarian, cynical and ugly just as our modern society. Helen Clay frick did grow up in a rarified class but a cultures are , values and customs reflect it's worth and well........ itself. Look at our art architecture and our society. Helen Clay frick despite some of her questionable views at least had a sense of true philanthropy something most of our rich elite today do not have. And wished to instil and pass on the high culture values and interests we have lost in our society today THAT SHOULD AND IS THE FRICK,'s mission and in truth should be every museums mission .

So it was probably the late 1960s, when I was about 8 or 9 years old. Korea was still an underdeveloped country back then, and people were hungry. I remember our next-door neighbor had a used truck. I think it was a Mack. There was a metal bulldog on the front of the truck, and I remember it had a silver sheen. It looked so glamorous to me, and I really wanted it, so I climbed up to the engine compartment and tried to pry it off with my small fists, but it wouldn't budge. Of course, there was no way a 7 or 8-year-old's hands could have removed it. That memory is so vivid. I haven't seen many Mack trucks since then, and I didn't even see one when I traveled to the US as an adult. Of course, I should have gone to a place where trucks gather. It's a product of my childhood memories.

Much gratitude!

I’m glad you are undoing your backing away from this exhibition and deciding to present it. It obviously took a great deal of self education and reflection to admit your knee-jerk reaction to canceling this the first time around was wrong, I hope an extensive part of this exhibition is community outreach and education to defeat the ignorance and bias others might carry towards Islamic culture, history and art.

Ok

Beautifully done ❤

I don't know why I watched the entirety of this video. I don't even live in the same country as Pittsburgh. Lady Peel seems sick though.

Please be careful that lunatic pro-Hamas protesters or these carbon freak eco protester nut jobs don't throw paint on that beautiful work of art. Thanks.

I always wonder how her life was.. I’m very excited to hear about then! ❤

Frick Pittsburgh is such a hilarious name lol

Love it

You keep saying the "Metropolitan is still around today", you said it in the last episode too, but its not. the Met in the show was torn down and a new Met was built at a new address in the 1900s.

How can I get a 4.5 inch Minnie Mouse hood ornament for my Ken Worth semi truck?

BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY

Would love to visit! Will do so as soon as possible!😊

I'm late to the party, but I just finished the first episode of season 2, and was so looking forward to tuning into your podcast after to learn about what I saw. I actually went first to the official podcast, which fine as well, but then remembered that last season, it was your podcast I would listen to first, and enjoy more.

My friend had a cement pineapple from Paine av.

Beverly mass is a historical treasure. Too bad residents are clueless about H.C. FRICK.

P.s. It is BEVERLY. They gave Prides a zip code. Farms and Prides were unsuccessful trying to incorporate.

Now that im in my 50s and grew up in Beverly, I am sad that the kids in Beverly were oblivious of this and a little time spent teaching them would have been good.

As a Beverly ma raised person, I had little knowledge of the Frick and Sears families word fame. We just went down the private road to drink and swim on the beaches. My friend even had a cement "pineapple" from the surrounding fence. Boy I wish I knew then what I love now...

🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎 71% of Americans supported Israel but did not support Hamas hostage deal as too many Hamas terrorists would be released and go back to terrorism. 85% supported President Trump and wanted him to be next President although Americans supported funding for Israel but did NOT support more money for Ukraine and thought EU should pay for the cost of war in Ukraine..Gallop polling..07 Jan 24.....🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅

Thank you so much for this “podcast”! I don’t know anyone who watches this show so it is great to listen to all your perspectives!!!🎉❤

I can’t find the video about Gilded Age millinery you referred to. Can you please post a link to it. Thank you!

Thanks again for your wonderful commentary - a nice mix of additional information (Sarah Garnet's social reforms, the House of Worth) and fun (Can Gladys resist "she who must be obeyed" (Bertha)! Larian! Ada in the driver's seat!). Hard to wait another year for season 3.

It’s like when Christopher gives the money to finish the bridge at the stars hollow knit-a-thon…

Absolutely stunning and an incredible work of art. I was so moved by the story of how the Red Dress came together. I saw the exhibit yesterday at The Frick in Pittsburgh. Thank you for sharing this with the world.

People post photos and illustrations of a lot of Worth dresses in a few of my Facebook groups. I seldom see one that I don’t like. His designs were really stunning.

Maybe my favorite line in the whole show: Jack, after Agnes gives him $5 for his patent application, "People can surprise you, can't they?"

Thanks for a great Gilded Age talk and I am looking forward to next season ❤

Prediction: Larry and Marion may not be able to get together right away because Susan Blain will reappear pregnant with Larry’s child. Mr Fellows likes to throw in these kinds of twists.

Should we be worried that Oscar was not present for Aunt Ada's big announcement at the end? If everyone was waiting for Marian, shouldn't they have waited for Oscar too? His absence was conspicuous.

Thank you for your weekly discussions. Enjoyed them greatly. Your information also enhanced my recent Christmas tour of Clayton, as I noticed things that I did not on previous tours. (I am so fortunate to be local.) Looking forward to Season 3.

I love Marion and Larry together, but I do wonder if he's maybe a bit too unfocused still. He got involved with a client and it doesn't appear he even finished the job, so he's going to have to step up a bit and establish himself before he's worthy of Marion. He needs to be making his own money and his own way before he gets a wife. I really hope that happens in S3, because I really want them to be together. Gladys...poor thing...I really feel like she's headed for a cliff there...sidenote though, Consuelo Vanderbilt was born in 1977 and it's 1883 in the show isn't it? She'd be 6. lol

Remember that it was Peggy’s suggestion that Larry Russell be contacted about Jack’s in vention. Thanks for your commentary. Csntwait for Season 3

Let's see... Bertha will meet her match...again George's railroad dealing with hit a roadblock Gladys' ended up pawn of arrange marriage to Royalty Larry's relationship with Marian is facing obstacles between them Anges ended up on the sidelines as Ada got money Peggy's personal career even her own might comes on the stand still Even Ms Astor might be somewhat of judgement on new money Need new historical characters as well

marion's first strike was having no dowry, did Agnes ever knew about the possible elopement.....I chose to think it's a lack of money.....

I also think that Ada will now provide Marion with a healthy dowry, which will make Marion a much better position, lineage and a dowry....Ada is much more generous than Agnes, who wouldn't spend her husbands money on a dowry....so I hope she gives Marion a killer dowry.

We used to call staying out all night and walking in the clothes you had on the night before the walk of shame. Somehow it seems so respectable in the gilded age.

I wonder if George allows Bertha to force Gladys into a marriage with the Duke in exchange for letting Larry marry for love.

Another wonderful series of podcasts, ladies! Thank you. See you in season 3!! 🎩🚂

I think she opened the door. A future story line might be that Gladys actually falls in love with the Duke.

Brauva Ladies!! Really enjoyed the jaunty jib-jabb through the Gilded Age with you all. You're fun, bright and excited about the topic which makes you all so much fun to watch and listen to! Two points about the 19th Century (and before) though: 1) the term "Dance until Dawn" came from the fact that people did stay up all night for dinners, dances and balls. Often there was a dinner first at 8, followed by a ball beginning at 10 or 11 (if it followed the opera), so breakfast at 3 isn't so late in that context; and remember, this is before electric light. If you were out on an estate property, the roads weren't lit. All you had was the stars...if you were lucky. Accidents, highwaymen and wild animals were all too real along the way. Better to stay inside where it's warm and safe, eat hearty and drink enough to sleep in broad daylight in your carriage! 2) An engagement, once accepted, was almost a criminal act to break off. It was serious business, even if you had the decision made for you. Bertha will have a scandal worthy of it's name if she doesn't deliver the goods. Gladys is (sadly) just collateral damage.

The society crowd didn't start the balls until 10 or 11 pm, that's why they would host a breakfast at 3 am. It's like going to Waffle House after you went clubbing. Plus they didn't have to get up in the morning to go to the office. I just wonder about the staff, did they have a night and day crew? They would have to prepare the house, food, and the host family before the party and clean up afterwards. I can't imagine that the servants could stay awake for all that!

The first strike against her is that she's poor and doesn't have a dowry.

Can't wait to recap next season with all of you. In excited for Peggy and the black elite as well as Ada ruling the house

Please make a video talking about theories cause I don’t think Bertha is going to agregó with Larry marrying Marian 🤔

The iron dress Bertha used exists in other colors, there's a red/pinkish one
