Episode 1: Sharkey's Place

Show Notes Description

Welcome to Sharkey's Place, an intimate, slow-paced bar in the small coastal town of Milbridge, Maine. In this opening episode, we meet Glenn, a journalist and self-proclaimed "Maine Man" , who spends his late afternoons nursing a martini and writing in his notepad. The easy rhythm of the bar, run by the perceptive Kirini and Glenn's ex-wife, the cook Myra , is disrupted by the arrival of Julia, an attractive, smart Dutch sea-captain on a work trip.


The episode explores the dynamics of life at the edge of the sea, blending the mundane with the adventurous. Major themes include the contrast between big-city careers and small-town life , the complexity of modern relationships and divorce , and the universal quest for intimacy and connection. As Julia tries to "pick up" Glenn, she inadvertently sparks a confrontation with Myra and later attracts the attention of the local lobsterman, Captain Gordon. The true nature of the characters' longings—for adventure, stability, or just a little bit of "fresh blood" —come to light, culminating in a cold, stormy night that tests the emotional bonds of the regulars at Sharkey's Place.
