The Drunk Women are back at their sold-out London residency for this episode and are delighted to be joined by writer, Marianne Levy, whose story of redemption of being the root cause of a criminal act will have you quaking with anger at the potential injustice! The team then gather their thoughts and explore a case which has all the elements of a box office smash and a cast of characters which would rival Jack and Rose. We then hear from a member if the audience who came seeking some opinions o...

Welcome to this week's episode of Drunk Women Solving Crime, which welcomes journalist and broadcaster Samira Ahmed as a very able member of the force! Samira starts things-off with a duo of crimes which although serious in subject, are important to discuss - not least because one of them highlights that Samira ALWAYS knew what her vocation would be and she had the badge to prove it! We then all get stuck into a crime that may or may not be the result of the police not believing women can be fun...

The Drunk Women are back in the studio, popping corks left, right and centre with this week's fantastic guest, comedian Celya AB! Celya starts off proceedings with the time she went full Joker in order to catch the people who took her bank card, this is the origin story we REALLY wanted. The team then look into a story of a grifter who wore many hats in his criminal career, even through he was a slack hatter before his criminal endeavours. We then hear from a listener whose story has less than a...

It's another DWSC residency show, where things got raucous and a smashing time was had by all, including this week's hilarious guest, comedian, and Mother Goose, Lucy Pearman! Lucy kicks things off with a childhood reverie of past love from afar, which resulted in a very eggy crime, possibly involving Ben Affleck. We then hear about a case, which comes in a variety of different parts, and shows the police might need to invest in better torches. Finally, as always round things off with an audienc...

It's another night at the DWSC London residency, where a packed-audience gathered to hear first hand of a crime inflicted on this week's guest just moments before she appeared on stage! Yes, comedian and writer Sikisa joins the team with a true crime story still hot off the press and with a fantastic sense for sleuthing out some cut price Edinburgh accommodation when the opportunity arises. Taylor then takes the team stateside for a crime so New York it practically arrives in a yellow taxi! We t...

Joining the Drunk Women for much merriment and mirth is the incredible actor, writer & podcaster, Rosalind Blessed! In what turns-out to be a very 'second record', we start by hearing from Rosalind about a crime for which she gives us the naked-facts and which also allows her to display a pretty good background in sleuthing - welcome to the force! The whole gang then looks at a case, which not only inspired one of the greatest stories in literature, but also one could argue (if you're Catie)...

This week on Drunk Women Solving Crime, the gang are joined by comedy producer and enthusiastic detective, Gina Lyons! Gina gets the ball rolling with a crime, which is a cautionary tale for anyone who decides to buy a hotel, whilst drunk on honeymoon - something which many people will have had experience with, we're sure. The team then get involved with solving a crime which starts with a bludgeoning and soon gives way to a whole new direction for Richard Curtis... Richard, if you're listening ...

It's another rockin' DWSC London residency, and joining Taylor, Hannah & Catie in the mayhem is comedian, writer, and podcaster, Stevie Martin! Stevie begins by telling the sold-out audience about a crime that illustrates how much she wants to see the good in people, or just one person in particular, who she's never met and hopefully never will! The team then gets involved in a case that proves that support is indeed key, even if your mother curses you! We then hear from a member of the audi...

Recorded at their rockin' London Residency, the Drunk Women appeared before a sold-out audience to bring their unique brand of tipsy traversing through crimes past, and joining them in this endeavour is comedian and writer, Abigail Burdess! Abigail's story of injustice from her school days will have the militants amongst you rising-up, to match our guest's beaming example of morality. The group then get involved with a crime which features an overachiever, who probably should have either stuck t...

After an unplanned one week hiatus (see below for details), the team have burst back into podland to bring you this fun-filled afternoon spent with the brilliant author Beth Morrey! Before everyone knuckled down to solve a case which will have the gentrified inhabitants of a particular London borough wondering if this could affect their house prices, Beth recounted a time she barely noticed she was victim of a crime (although the story was particularly triggering for one member of the DWSC team,...

Normally today we would be putting out another cracking DWSC episode; unfortunately this week we will not be releasing an episode. This is because our dear producer Amanda came home this weekend to discover her flat had been burgled (I know, life imitating art, right?) Along with the devastation and sense of violation that brings, the intruder stole her laptop and all of her's jewellery, including this peacock brooch (pictured). It is a precious family heirloom, which Amanda's Great Grandfather ...

The Drunk Women are giddy to be welcoming this week's guest IRL, as they enter the studio for the first time in 2 years! Joining them for this momentous occasion is TV & Radio presenter Lauren Layfield, who told the team about the most expensive taxi fare in history, which left her feeling a bit of a 'Dong'. The team then pops some corks, whilst they look into a case, which was a rather sober affair on the outside, and also reveals that gang culture is really just an amped-up version of 'Mea...

Recorded at their London residency in February 2022, the whole team is back together, and joining them is not only a room packed to the rafters of fellow drunk detectives but also returned to the force, comedian, and right-wing political pundit** Gráinne Maguire! ** This might be a lie (it definitely IS a lie) Gráinne is back to treat us to another crime story from her life, this time it looks as though she may also be the perpetrator, due to inaction rather than malicious intent. The team then ...

This episode was recorded at the DWSC London residency in front of a fantastic live audience, who weren't backward with coming forwards with their opinions on a story which involves yet another badass woman the history books forgot! Joining the team on stage is the hilarious comedian Holly Burn, who told some tales of criminal woe, which in some respects involved most of the Drunk Women, AND the other guest who was on the bill that night, comedian Grainne Maguire! It's a small world. As usual, a...

The Drunk Women have gone INTERNATIONAL - yes, they crossed water in A PLANE to the beautiful island of Guernsey to record this show in front of a fantastic audience of Sarnians (you'll find out what that means as you listen to the ep), BUT this episode has 60% less sass than usual, as Catie was unable to join the team, thanks to a horribly times bought of Covid, so Taylor and Hannah have no one to keep them in check, apart from the amazing Angela Barnes, who also hopped across to do a fantastic...

This week's episode harks back to when Taylor and Hannah were holding the fort at their London residency as Catie recovered from Covid, but fear not sass-fans, as our very own detective sasshole makes an appearance to help solve a listener crime of Uber proportions in the final part of the pod! Joining Taylor and Hannah on stage though is the brilliant comedian Lily Phillips, whose day of encountering crime in The Big Apple was the true tourist experience the guidebooks don't tell you about. And...

The Drunk Women have done the unthinkable and invited a guy on the show when it's not even Men's Month, but that's OK because the man is the one and only Richard Herring! This is what happens when two great formats collide, but just HOW does true crime comedy mesh with the unmistakable sound of RHLSTP? Listen to find out, if Richard can match the detective skills of Catie, Hannah, and Taylor, which emergency questions will our trio be posed during this epic meeting of podcast royalty and if anyo...

In this episode, recorded in front of our wonderful Patreons over zoom, Maisie Adam came prepared with a criminal tale from her school days, which will either make you feel really old, or long to play a game of snake ... or both and our Patreons certainly got an eyeful, when Hannah waggled her old brick at them (see below how to join, so you don't miss out on gold such a this! The team then clock-on for work to solve a crime, which is tragic and illuminating in equal parts, and then, as always, ...

This episode was recorded at the start of 2022, so fresh into the year in fact, that Hannah broke dry January for it! BUT, it was a bittersweet time, as although the team was thrilled to be back on stage at The Covent Garden Studios with a fantastic crowd, one of the gang had finally succumbed to Covid. Yes, unfortunately, there is around 60% less sass than usual in this episode, as detective Sasshole Catie was locked away in quarantine. At least our fantastic guest comedian and writer, Nat Luur...

The scent of November 2021 wafts in like the nose on a fine wine, as the Drunk Women release their final residency show of that year, and helping them with the wafting is comedian and guinea pig enthusiast, Elf Lyons! Elf starts us off with a crime which she really nails for us before the team gets involved with a story involving a locked called Filipo Lipo... Feleble Lable... Felippe Lido? However his name is pronounced, it's a ripping yarn! Then before everyone surged the bar, an audience memb...

What a time to be alive, Drunk Women are here, straight off the back of their Writer's Guild Award (see link below), to bring you this epic episode with the frankly incredible Alison Spittle, and the show's Patreons was invited to watch the record fro the comfort of their own homes over zoom!

Cast your mind back to November 2021.... what were you doing in those halcyon days? Well the Drunk Women tool to the stage at one of their favorite places to do their live shows, at The Salford Lowry, Manchester in front of a 'lively' crowd, who had just taken full advantage of the half-hour interval. Adding to the merrymaking for this night of nights was fantastic comedian, Hayley Ellis who came prepped with a story comprising of nine lives, which is followed by the team digging into a crime wh...

This week on Drunk Women Solving Crime, we have someone who is not only an asset to THIS force but has been an asset to the ACTUAL force, serving 30 years in the British Police, becoming the first non-white woman to be promoted through the ranks to chief superintendent. Parm Sandhu has also recently starred in a Channel 4 reality show Murder Island, where she advises real-life amateur detectives to solve a re-enacted murder, so stands to reason that we HAD to have her as an honourary 4th member ...

Much like a vintage wine, you have to wait until the best moment to pop its cork, much like this episode, which was recorded during the summer months of 2020 and is now ready to release to the world. Writer Joanne Lau provides a fruity note, with a story that leaves you wondering if the perp had good intentions at heart... otherwise, they are definitely NOT a good egg. The team then cracks into a case which has more twists than a helter-skelter AND a real whirlwind of a listener crime! Come and ...

HELLOOOOO! It's been a minute, but the Drunk Women are back after recharging their livers and drinking their body weight in spinach smoothies, so they can get right on it again, all in the name of entertainment! Having said all that, this episode was actually recorded a few weeks ago, at one of their sell-out residency shows, and joining them in the hijinks is the brilliantly funny comedian and political commentator, Ayesha Hazarika! This show is typical of the anarchic atmosphere of a DWSC resi...

It's the final episode of 2021 and what better way to being some festive cheer to proceedings than recording in front of a packed out crowd AND inviting the hilarious comedian Eleanor Morton along as special guest?! Yes, even though this happened to be recorded at Christmas, like a bottle of Baileys, it can be enjoyed any time of the year and if you celebrate Yuletide or not. It's always the season to listen to Eleanor share a tale in which a combination of naivety and creepiness are both at pla...

The Drunk Women are here again and this episode is hot off the press of their double show at The Leicester Square theatre only last week (at the time of release - obvs). As this was recorded at the start of December, the vibe is very much that of an office Christmas party, mainly because of Hannah's outfit. Someone who didn't get the Christmas memo though was the first guest of the evening, the wonderful comedian, writer, and actor, Felicity Ward! Felicity's outfit AND crime take us back to beac...
