It's A Clue

In this episode of It’s A Clue, we delve into Nancy Drew & the Scarlet Slipper Mystery. Spoiler Alert: we hated it. In Karen’s words, “a swing and a miss”. In some positive news, we learn that Karen doesn’t rob bookstores, Kelly’s joining bookclubs, and Nancy has perfected her fall-downs. Written by Shark Shooter McGee, and sponsored by heavy sighing.

Nancy survives over 5 murther attempts, George is on the struggle bus, Ned fights off a lion (retold by Karen in an Emmy winning performance), Nancy gets to go on a 30 minute shopping spree in London, and it’s all topped off by a circus wedding (upsettingly with no one guarding the presents)!

In this episode, we discuss "The Final Gambit", the third book in the Inheritance Games trilogy by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. This book has nothing to do with ham or hot pockets, so be forewarned if you were here just for the meat. 

Join us as we discuss a veritable Winchester Mystery House, Roombas for werewolves, and what the appropriate cocktail-to-peanut ratio is for safe air travel. 

Karen is NOT Cliff, Kelly eats the scenery with her pronunciation of "milieu", the Phantom of the Opera is the most emo, Coldplay is not emo at all, and Grayson should hie himself back to Harvard for additional baking.

Let's talk about Nancy Drew & the Secret of the Wooden Lady!  We talk about life upon the sea, Karen's bathtub dealbreaker, and Kelly being coerced into Yosemite. Karen yeets her Kindle out the window, Kelly sends up the Introvert's Prayer, Ned snatches defeat from the jaws of victory, and Leos face off against Geminis. Kelly has too much wine and oversells a mediocre IWHBAI. Karen uses the phrase "orc's last gasp". And our new favorite character, Old Grizzle Face, is a nude model and lumbersexual. Rated 11.75 tragic lizards. Please don't unsubscribe after this episode. Sincerely, Kelly and Karen.

In this episode, the chimneys lean, the pottery is forged, and we dip a toe into the forensics pool. You guessed it - this week, it's all about Nancy Drew & the Clue of the Leaning Chimney! In addition to a very complex plot rife with intrigue, thievery, and kidnappings, we get jealous boyfriends, fake Helens, bouquet dodging, and yet another unsatisfactory gift in exchange for Nancy's hard work. Karen is the actual heart-eyes emoji, grand gestures make Kelly uncomfy, Karen's cheating on us with her OTHER podcast, and we worry about what hipster potter Dick Milton was actually getting up to with his basement grappling hook ladder. 

Rated 9.5 / 12 dogs with rabies.

Let's discuss "Nancy Drew & the Ghost of Blackwood Hall", mkay? Join us in a discussion of google-able physics, a debate over quicksand logistics, and whether or not Ned is here for the right reasons. Nancy sinks zero boats, Hannah steps into the spotlight, hypnosis makes its first appearance, and we get to go on a trip to New Orleans!  In other news, Karen is going to cosplay as Super Basil, Kelly is an accused commie, we mourn the loss of Albert 2, and grow concerned about the Clue Crew's exposure to all this "phosphorescent" stuff.
