November 18, 2025 Detective Instinct: Farewell, My Beloved - Joey from Armonica
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! This time we're inverting things and talking to someone inspired by Ace Attorney, Famicom Detective Club, and Hotel Dusk! Joey from Armonica is the lead developer on Detective Instinct: Farewell, My Beloved, which is a soon-to-be-released adventure game with a command select interface and a groovy soundtrack! We discuss his inspirations, work on the game, and the game design ethos behind it. We also evangelize the command select menus, adventure games as a whole, and get a few tangents in there, too! (Let us know if you like the idea of interviewing game devs about their work in the adventure game and visual novel genres more in the future!)

November 04, 2025 The Portopia Serial Murder Case
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Dessy returns, and we discuss one of the most influential games of all time, but has never come out in English officially! The Portopia Serial Murder Case is an early adventure game made by Yuji Horii, which combines adventure game mechanics with text adventures and hard-boiled detective stories! The result? A surprising game that seems almost banal and short by today's standards, but had a huge impact on creators like Hideo Kojima, Eiji Aonuma, Shu Takumi, and many, many more. We discuss Portopia '81, Ace Attorney canon fursonas, spending time at the long day factory, and uh... police brutality! A little something for everyone!
NEXT TIME: Bonus Episode! Interview with Joey from Armonic, chatting about Detective Instinct: Farewell My Beloved!

October 21, 2025 The Roman Hat Mystery (Part 2)
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Unfortunately Dessy is still out, but will be back next time! We dive back into the world of 1929 New York with Inspector Queen and his son Ellery, and end up with even more racism than before to deal with! It even factors into the motive of the killer! We deal with that as best we can, discuss the witnesses and our favorite side characters, whether the book has too much investigating, and if Ellery can be normal at all. Tiago defends Angela Russo (no surprise there!), Rose critiques a confusing scene, and then we all get distracted talking about future Ace Attorney stuff and if it'll ever even happen. The clock is ticking, Capcom! The 25th anniversary is next year!

October 07, 2025 The Roman Hat Mystery (Part 1)
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Unfortunately Dessy is out this time around, because they got roped into helping to plan a wedding! The rest of the crew solemnly carries on... We've met Alice Arisugawa, but now it's time to meet the work that inspired HIM! Ellery Queen, one of the most famous American detectives, has finally entered the podcast. Today we discuss the 1929 novel's first half, with an explosive play at the start, an expansive cast of characters, and the father-son detecting duo at the heart of it all. Rose also gets herself in hot water with an "I think Coolsville sucks!" moment, Tiago restrains himself more than once, and we all bonk Queen on the head with a baseball bat through time because of the, you know, racism. But at the heart of it all is some compelling writing, lots of fun characters, and one very important missing hat!

September 23, 2025 Columbo - Short Fuse
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! After being so well-behaved last time, this episode the crew gets particularly unruly, and even attempts to usurp Ben as host. Bombs, chemicals, and well-endowed actors are the name of the game here! Columbo always gives us a nice place to blow off some steam, and if the silly string isn't enough, we also consider the mellified man, an Ace Attorney dinner party, and Dessy deploying a long-awaited chemical-based pun. Join us for all this and more as we dive back into Peter Falk's bumbling detective!

September 09, 2025 The Moai Island Puzzle
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we've got a special guest, an expert in shin honkaku mysteries: MinovskyArticle! He graciously agreed to help break down this influential novel by Alice Arisugawa that helped inspired many other modern mystery writers, including our favorite Ace Attorney directors Shu Takumi and Takeshi Yamazaki. We chat about the fun character interactions, the strange island that revolves around puzzles, and what the solution to it all could be! And we also engage in some classic UAR diversions, although less than usual, because I (Ben) threatened everyone to be on their best behavior. Maybe. :) Who's the REAL mastermind? Find out as we break down "The Moai Island Puzzle!"

August 26, 2025 Lupin the 3rd (Selected Episodes)
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! This episode we're taking one last detour, this time in Lupin the 3rd, which is maybe not a direct inspiration on Ace Attorney in the traditional sense, but certainly is in the cultural mix (remember Mask☆DeMasque?). We talk about several episodes from season 1 of the original anime and debate which one of us is which member of the crew (we can't ALL be Jigen!), while also getting into discussions on the episode directors (have you ever heard of this Miyazaki guy?). How many more parenthetical remarks can I fit into this description (we'll find out!)? This is like a nice visit to one of our favorite pals, so we get wacky and generally have a really weird (positive) energy this episode. Dive in!

August 12, 2025 Arsène Lupin vs. Herlock Sholmes (Part 2)
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! We're wrapping up our Maurice Leblanc section with the end of "The Blonde Lady" saga and "The Jewish Lamp" tale. Once again, Wilson/Watson gets the Gumshoe treatment, we chat about other Ace Attorney parallels, and also get into how some of the female characters are handled. Plus, we side-step into Transformers, what a Lupin subreddit would look like, and wondering how annoying Lupin would be in real life. We get everything out on the table, in this feature-length pod! And, most importantly... Happy birthday Dessy!!!
NEXT TIME: Lupin the Third Pilot Film, and Season 1 Episode 4 "One Chance for a Prison Break", Episode 7 "A Wolf Calls a Wolf", Episode 10 "Hunt Down the Counterfeiter!", and Episode 23 "The Great Gold Showdown!"

July 29, 2025 Arsène Lupin vs. Herlock Sholmes (Part 1)
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! We're back with more Lupin, as Leblanc takes us even further into the world of copyright dodging with several tales of the thief's encounter with the great detective... Herlock Sholmes! We chat a bit more about the name change, the somewhat mean take on Watson/Wilson, and how much this collection of stories influenced Shu Takumi! And of course, we also get wildly off-course with our usual diversions. It's really fascinating to see how much this story resembles Ace Attorney-style writing, so join us for an especially fun episode of UAR!

July 15, 2025 The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin, Gentleman Burglar (Part 2)
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! We wrap up our first venture into the world of Arsène Lupin with four pretty good stories that cross the gamut from grim to goofy, and even drop the world's greatest detective into the mix! We cover black pearls, submarines, and secret underground passages. Plus, do you have a hot, intelligent friend who's super cool and clever? Better watch out! They could be none other than the gentleman thief himself! Lastly, we also talk about the heat, the humidity, and more, but most strangely of all: we stay (generally) on topic!
