If August is the time for the annual John H. Watson Society Treasure Hunt, you know the Watsonian Weekly has to go all in on that theme for at least one episode. But Rob Nunn still gets in an Adventuress book review, Robert Perret educates on Queen Anne Street, and Paul Thomas Miller reveals some Small secrets. Prepare your ears for this one, matey!
Even though the main track was completely re-recorded, our reports from Mopsy, Sampson, Misty and Buck all survive intact, and we actually get an e-mail on the current episode before the episode comes out. Heat, bees, sponges, and lots of Watson!
Paul on Holmes helping, Robert on Bart's, Rob on yet another good book, and Brad is all over the place. And then the East wind blows.
The podcast is joined by an entire Sherlock society, The Parallel Case of St. Louis, for a bit of Watsonian triva and a new game called "Four Watsons."
A lot of John H. Watson Society business, with Paul Thomas Miller and Robert Perret adding to the mix. Does three JHWS members constitute a bull pack? We'll wait to hear from the head office.
We get a gathering of Watsons especially for Pride month, a Jezail bullet review, a review of the year review, a review of an Irene Adler review of Watson, and Watson behaving badly.
Watsons, beekeeping, and Baskerville, along with a wide assortment of background noises to demonstrate how far we will go to report for you here at The Watsonian Weekly.
A very full episode with Destiny's report on the Scintillilation, two very different views on smoking Shipp's from Sampson and Buck, a book from Beacon, a word from Mopsy, and Calder just goes on about that "very stupid friend" remark from you-know-who. And if you don't know who, listen to the podcast!
This week, someone buys tea. Also, what that "lighthouse" thing about Mrs. Watson really meant, Geordi LaForge Watson, Watson's word of the week, and . . . well, it's kind of a light week. Don't try to fill a long drive with this one, unless you're going to replay it over and over and over, and if that's the case, don't be driving in the direction of this summary's author, please.
All sorts of Watson news and upcoming events, as always, along with Rob Nunn reviewing the latest issue of The Watsonian, Paul Thomas Miller going Huret, Frances Hay Moulton reads from an old newspaper, and even some listener mail!
Random news from your Watsonian Week Past and Week Ahead! Margie Deck's answer to last week's puzzler! Watson's Word of the Week! Elinor Gray gets into bees, the Watsons of Holmes's later years! "What's Watson On About?" with Paul Thomas Miller! Watson of the Week! More Elinor and Bees, just harder to hear, but worth the effort! And the Watsonian Weekly Wind-up . . . how do we end this podcast?
In his first attempt at The Watsonian Weekly, Calder wanders through several topics of the moment, from Queen Victoria to actor Fred Lloyd, with a moment on the word "antennae" in the midst. Rob Nunn drops in for a book review, and Margie Deck offers up a puzzle, which gets put in the otherwise scant show notes. Show notes: Certainly not a quitter this one raged bitter— with a ghostly enterprise revenge came by surprise
