Maniacs,

In Podcast 97 (S16 E02), a killer takes inspiration from art by using a bag, a front-end loader and a chandelier. Does my butt look big with this face on it?

Maniacs,

Have you ever wondered how an episode of Midsomer Murders is written? In mini-episode 13, we interview the amazing Lisa Holdsworth. Lisa has penned episodes of Midsomer Murders, New Tricks and Call the Midwife. In the interview, we ask about writing for Midsomer, finding ways to kill people, hamster-themed underpants and Ted Lasso!

Maniacs,

In Podcast 92 (S15 E03), a masked killer uses a rock, a spear and a ruined bronze-age artifact to make sure the local amateur astronomy club has lots of room for new members.   I’m not an astronomer, but I play one on a podcast.
