Where the hell is Block Island? Good question...\\xa0

Rich and Marc give you the basic rundown and answer some FAQ's about Block Island. Never heard of Block Island? This is the episode for you. If you already know about Block Island don't break your arm patting yourself on the back, Mr. Smarty Pants. There's still a lot you don't know. So leave it to a couple of locals to give you the skinny.

Then we hear from Rich who is what we call a "year round island resident". This does NOT mean he's an "Islander". Don't know the difference? See? If you DO know the difference it's because you've watched JAWS a hundred times. It's a good movie but you should really get outside more and go to the beach instead of hanging around inside watching movies on such a beautiful day.

Next Marc (a carpetbagger) talks about how he came to spend his summers on the island. It's a pretty good story. We find out that Marc's penchant for stealing things leads to a nickname that sticks. Nicknames are a big thing on Block Island. We've got people named; Turtle, Rocket, Turbo, Gravy and T-Bird to name a few.

Finally Rich and Marc fill you in on what to expect in future episodes. From current events for the locals to helpful tips for tourists, Two Guys on Block Island shoots to cover all the bases and introduce you to some of the colorful characters that call Block Island home.

Now press play, Cap'!
