Join legendary actor and bon viveur John Barrymore as he drinks his way through the San Francisco earthquake of 1906.
Its a boozy tale of Hollywood, Broadway, a golden age and fearsome theatrical talent.

  • Why was he called 'The Great Profile? ( Hint, it was because he had a great profile)
  • Was he related to Drew Barrymore ( Yes, he was her grandfather)
  • Was he Dr Jekyll or Mr Hyde? ( Both) 
  • Did he have a drink problem? (undoubtedly) 

Answers to a lot of other questions can be found in episode 3 of Rogues Gallery Uncovered - the podcast of bad behaviour in period costume.

Thanks for listening. Stay Roguish!
