The Watsonian Weekly

A little news, a little explanation about Watson's watch from Bull Pup Buck, then it's on to part two of "A Case of Identity" discussion about Sherlock & Co. Will it be what you expect? I sure don't know.

Many Watsons enter the ring, only one Watson leaves.

The John H. Watson Society spends half the show extolling various Watsons, and then the Bull Pups take over the last half of the show and just go on about Sherlock & Co.'s Watson doing so fabulously in his latest episode. ("A Case of Identity"). See if any of those bits change your mind about the greatest Watson out there!

This one has it all! Big Watson news, pronunciations of all sorts, some love for Sherlock & Co.'s Reigate Squire episode, a new Moriarty theory, celebrity cricket, and, inevitably, the end of the episode and that point you have to listen to something else until next week.

We're all over the place this week, which isn't that unusual. Attempting to find a movie that connects actor Harvey Keitel to a Watson character? That might be. Venezualan food, a TV show from the mind of a Baker Street Irregular, and Watson's literary agent taking on a grammar school are just a few of the places the pod goes this week, so buckle up and listen in. You'll hear at least one thing you haven't heard before.

What can I say? We just kept talking after the Silver Blaze discussion on the May 6, 2024 episode. So if you really just want to hear bull pups Mooch, Maddie, Starlight, and Calder chatting about random Sherlockian things, including THAT movie, here you go.

There's a whole lot of horse race talk in this week's episode as four Americans try to wrap their heads around a more fully realized adaptation of "Silver Blaze" at the Grand Nationals.

If you'd like to see just the sort of race Silver Blaze would have run in, here's a link that our guest bull pup: https://youtu.be/8q6ewCO4tB4?si=u6nTLvnQPiaKON9T

Talk of the John H. Watson Society journal, a Watson we don't care much for, Watson having three of something instead of two, and the third part of Silver Blaze's latest modern adaptation is reviewed. And we might all still be recovering from a certain con.

Buckle up for a full hour of bull pup chatter, ranging from a new waffle based Sherlockian society, through artists we saw at 221B Con, to the usual goings on about the second part of "Silver Blaze" from Sherlock & Co. The game is afoot . . . well unless you're reading bull pup Buck's copy of A Study in Scarlet. You'll see.

While some podcasts use a venue like 221B Con to get some good content, The Watsonian Weekly once again just gets random audio that somehow is just a messy version of our usual show. But we got an episode out!

The Valley of Fear, New Zealand, and household plumbing systems -- you never know what you'll find in any of them! But we touch on each before we spend more time than the show we're reviewing lasts to discuss the second part of Sherlock & Co.'s "Retired Colourman." Arf arf!
