“Away, away with rum, by gum!” Who could the murderer be in this episode? Could it be the man with the baggiest pants? Lots of sly grog antics, plus some of our favorite scenes that may or may not be recreated during this week’s podcast.

The private detecting heads to the bedroom (wink wink), Jack gets invited to a seance just so he can hold Phryne’s hand, and more discussion of Batman than you would think in the week’s episode of Every Lady Needs a Hobby! Plus, MacKenzie shakes up the sexual tension scale by introducing a innovative, never before … Continue reading "S2E2: Death Comes Knocking"

It’s fan dance time! We’re back for season 2, so start off 2019 with some Undercover Phryne as she goes straight from a fan dance to some hard hitting questions. We also have some ideas for how Jack could employ fan dancing for his investigations, and what Imperial Club owner Madame Leon would be like … Continue reading "S2E1: Murder Most Scandalous"

Foyled again! We’ll never know if Murdoch Foyle really was the reincarnation of King Memses, (more popularly known these days as King Memes) because as usual a meddling lady detective got in his way and ruined everything. No complaints from us though because we get more screen time for Disheveled Jack.

If you love disheveled Jack as much as we do (and we bet you do!), don’t miss S1E12 Murder in the Dark, aka the BEST episode of Season 1. In addition to a thorough treatment of the steamiest scene on TV, you’ll get the lengthy discussion of caramel/toffee apples you never knew you needed, and … Continue reading "S1E12: Murder in the Dark"

MacKenzie manages to work in more Harry Potter references than you might think possible, and there is much contention in the … Continue reading "S1E11: Blood and Circuses"

In which Aunt P exercises her scolding skills, and we discuss the logistics of texting via telegram: “Tap tap tap tap… U Up?”. Undercover Dot has a lucky job search and the factory foreman engages in skulking and other duties as assigned.

More like Queen of the Teen Angst. “Pyro” and “Klepto” probably shop at Hot Topic and Jack drinks some sediment-laced whiskey, all in the line of duty. Plus, we discuss our own angst-ridden teenage years for some bonus personal content.

In which Mrs. Opie AND the building’s pipes get worked on….. Also, due to multiple instances of lingering hand contact, up and down glances, and faces being 2 inches apart, the sexual tension breaks the rating scale this week. You might not act so blasé if two of your coworkers/employees were killed on the job, … Continue reading "S1E8: Away with the Fairies"

Murder in Montparnasse, or, Murder 101: Get a New Hat Yes, it’s THAT episode! Don’t worry, we discuss a certain scene at length, but also cover how once again the local clods are useless, and ponder what Dot’s priest would say about posing nude for a French artist.
