Mysterious Tales of Old St. Paul
Season 18 · Episode 297
Tuesday, October 15, 2024 • Duration 52:21
“the summit of St. Paul’s” [SIGN] After one episode, we find ourselves back in Minnesota — this time, talking with longtime author Larry Millett about his latest Shadwell Rafferty book, Mysterious Tales of Old St. Paul. Those who have followed the nine previous books will have a good sense of this 1890s-era saloon owner who perished in the ninth book (no spoiler there, as it was titled Shadwell Rafferty's Last Case). This latest volume gathers three novellas, casting back to Rafferty’s beginnings to recount a trio of intriguing cases that honed his skills before he joined forces with Sherlock Holmes. In addition, we take a side-tour to talk about architecture (if that's your kind of thing), and the good old days of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota. We also bring you the Sherlockian news, a trifling podcast review in Madeline Quinones’ "A Chance of Listening," and the Canonical Couplet quiz.

Celebrating the Anniversary of the Oldest Sherlock Holmes Podcast
Season 18
Friday, June 14, 2024 • Duration 06:09
“seventeen years of age” [SIGN] Mycroft Holmes spoke for all of us in "The Greek Interpreter" when he greeted Dr. Watson with the fateful line: “I hear of Sherlock everywhere since you became his chronicler.” And yes, in our minds, we'll always hear that line in the voice of the inimitable Charles Gray in the Granada series — a sound clip that serves as the opening for our podcast introduction. Little did we know when we began the podcast on June 14, 2007 — exactly 17 years ago today — that we'd have this kind of longevity. That is like a young animal trying to walk immediately after being born: awkward, unsteady, and far from refined. Cringy, even. But it set the stage for what was to come, not only in nearly , but in our companion show and in numerous other Sherlock Holmes podcasts started by other passionate Sherlockians. In Episode 289 of IHOSE, our special correspondent Madeline Quiñones will begin a segment called "A Chance of Listening," a series of short assessments of many of these Sherlock Holmes podcasts that have sprouted up since those early days of 2007. It was inspired by her presentation at the Dayton conference. We hope you'll give it a listen. As a reminder, I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere is an interview show that's something like a cross between and for Sherlockians. It airs on the 15th and 30th of every month and you can find . We're now in our 18th season and don't see an end in sight. We'd be interested in hearing from you, in a comment below, in an email to comment @ ihearofsherlock [DOT] com, or text us at 5-1895-221B-5 (or 518-952-2125). And if there are Sherlock Holmes fans who still haven't discovered us, please share this with them. And until next time... the game's afoot!

"so many remarkable adventures" [MAZA] David Marcum has a good 45 years of Sherlockian fandom under his belt. Based on his output of writing and editing Sherlockian pastiches, you'd think he's been at it ever since his childhood. As the editor of the series of , he's responsible for bringing scores of new tales to the world, and his pace doesn't seem to be slowing down. His work has helped raise money for the Stepping Stones School at Undershaw, to the tune of $65,000. When it comes to hats, David is a deerstalker-only guy, but when it comes to editing, he has other interests as well. We discuss these, as well as how someone who's interested in writing a Sherlock Holmes story can get David to consider theirs. Also, we have a little news on the Enola Holmes film. And of course, the latest round of Canonical Couplets. The prize this time around is The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories, Vol. XXI. Entries are due by 11:59 pm EDT on September 14, 2020.

The Baker Street Irregulars' New Wiggins
Season 14 · Episode 198
Saturday, August 15, 2020 • Duration 01:22:03
"step up, Wiggins" [STUD] Earlier this year, Mike Whelan, BSI ("Vincent Spaulding") passed the gavel to Michael Kean, BSI ("General Gordon") as the latter assumed the position of "Wiggins," or head administrator of the Baker Street Irregulars. It was a momentous occasion, as Kean is only the sixth head of the BSI since its founding in 1934. Burt and Scott had an opportunity to speak with Michael on a wide range of topics, including his Sherlockian origins (which were induced rather than pursued), his career in the publishing industry, early days in Sherlockian scions, and his role with the BSI Press. Michael also takes us behind the scenes to give us the story of his selection as the next BSI, going back a number of years. We discuss his vision for the role of a literary society in the twenty-first century and more pointedly, the difficult decision to make the 2021 BSI Weekend a virtual affair. Also covered is our upcoming 200th episode: we are looking for your feedback. And of course, the latest round of Canonical Couplets. We had a record number of submissions in the last episode; the prize this time is a copy of Sherlock Holmes: The Writings of John H. Watson, M.D., compiled by Edgar W.

Enter Joanna Blalock and the Watsons, protagonists in the latest in the Daughter of Sherlock Holmes mystery series. Leonard Goldberg, a USA Today bestselling author, has done a clever job with , his fourth in the series, from Minotaur Books (St. Martin's Press).

Commissionaire: Julian Wolff and his Baker Street Irregulars
Season 14 · Episode 196
Wednesday, July 15, 2020 • Duration 01:06:43
“the little man was much more favourable to me” [REDH] In their 86-year history the Baker Street Irregulars have had six leaders. Of them, Julian Wolff, BSI ("The Red-Headed League) seems to have been the least likely. As Malvolio says in Twelfth Night, "Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em." Julian was in the third category, as there was a leadership vacuum following the unexpected death of Edgar W. Smith in 1960, after 20 years of leadership, and Julian's name was put forth to fill Edgar's considerable shoes. The latest entry in the BSI Press Biography Series is by Sonia Fetherston, BSI ("The Solitary Cyclist"). Sonia returns to I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere to explore Julian's life inside and outside of the BSI, the secrets behind some of the back room jockeying, and the dry humor and self-control that powered this well-respected leader who saved the BSI from near extinction. Inside this episode you'll find a very special flashback segment from with Evelyn Herzog, BSI ("The Daintiest Thing Under a Bonnet") and Susan Rice, BSI ("Beeswing") where the two stories intersect. The Canonical Couplet is back, with fresh new entries (as we blew through the first 60!). Enter to win our prize: a copy of Commissionaire from the BSI Press.

MX Publishing
Season 14 · Episode 195
Tuesday, June 30, 2020 • Duration 01:05:06
“enterprise and originality” [COPP] When Steve and Sharon Emecz founded MX Publishing, it had a very different purpose than it does today. And while most Sherlockians know the outfit for its many pastiches (particularly through the edited by David Marcum), there's much more going on here than one might realize. Steve Emecz joined us to talk about what drives him and how MX has grown to become a wide-ranging publisher with over 400 books and 150 authors under its imprint. Not to mention how they support a number of charitable causes such as Stepping Stones School at Undershaw, Happy Life Children's Home in Nairobi, the American Cancer Society, and the World Food Programme, and how it's possible that a publisher can be carbon-positive. There's definitely more than meets the eye with MX Publishing. Once again, our popular Canonical Couplet quiz is back, and we reveal the secret behind the origin of these short stanzas.

The Worst Man in London
Season 14 · Episode 194
Monday, June 15, 2020 • Duration 58:47
“Do you feel a creeping, shrinking sensation” [CHAS] Holmes and Watson turn to burglary in "The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton," seeking to thwart the designs of "the worst man in London." The story holds a unique place in the Canon for its distinctive villain and the Great Detective's "strong natural turn" for criminal enterprise, as well as the host of thorny ethical questions raised by his actions. There's so much to pick apart from this, one of the shortest in the Sherlock Holmes canon. So when Constantine Rossakis, BSI ("St. Bartholomew's Hospital") and Daniel Stashower ("Thurston") took on the job of editing , the latest in the BSI Press Manuscript Series, it was an embarrassment of riches. We talked to them about finding an editorial voice and the history of the manuscript, feelings when holding original Conan Doyle materials, the Frederic Dorr Steele and Sidney Paget illustrations, and more. Don't miss the latest Canonical Couplet, as we give you an opportunity to raid the vaults of IHOSE. This time, we have a complete set of Baker Street Journals from 2019 (including , if you missed it!) Answers are due by 11:59 pm EDT on June 14, 2020.
