Listen Later

Break out those magnifying glasses, listeners! On Episode 186, Alli and her guest join one of the classic kid sleuths for some seriously interactive detective work. During their conversation about Encyclopedia Brown, Boy Detective, they chat about the origins and evolution of the series as a whole, smart kids in pop culture, the portrayal of lone girl character Sally Kimball, and parallels between Encyclopedia Brown and the BSC. This episode is also heavy on the Gilmore Girls references! In a parallel universe, would Rory and Encyclopedia date successfully? Tune in and find out!
