🎙️ Episode: https://share.transistor.fm/s/c2927da6

📓 Show Notes: https://midsomermaniacs.transistor.fm/episodes/mystery-maniacs-a-community-note

Maniacs, we've got a little update on how the show's going to look for the next little while.

We've always done our best to keep things regular around here, but life has handed us a few competing things we can't quite predict right now. So rather than leave you hanging between Mondays, we're switching it up: two episodes a week instead of one big one.

Monday — Mystery Maniacs Clues & Reviews

A weekly check-in on what we're watching, what's just been announced, and whatever else we've got thoughts about.

Wednesday — Mystery Maniacs Cold Cases

A binge drop of a full season of Midsomer, right from the very beginning, with our thoughts stitched in at the top. Settle in and enjoy.

This way we get to keep showing up for you every week while things settle down on our end. Same show, same nonsense, just a slightly different shape for a bit.

All this starts this week with a short podcast explaining everything and the first Cold Cases on Wednesday. 

Thanks, as always, for listening. You lot are the best.

Love

Mark & Sarah
