    “general resemblance to an itinerant” [VALL]

    A term we don't hear as frequently these days is "gypsy." Unless you're headed to see a Sondheim musical, which is about an entirely different Gypsy (and one with Sherlockian connections too).

    Anyway, our focus here is on stories in which gypsies are mentioned (there are two; can you name them?) and a bit of historical context of gypsies in the Victorian era, including the documented experience of one exalted person. It's just a Trifle.

    On Stage and Off
    Apr 16 2025

    “before my biographer had come to glorify me” [GREE]

    Once again, we find ourselves in a "Mr. Sherlock Holmes the theorist"-themed episode, where we look at a piece of old scholarship. This time, we share a chapter from William S. Baring-Gould's groundbreaking biography of Sherlock Holmes.

    Chapter V "On Stage and Off in England and America: 1879–1881" finds us in the two years leading up to Holmes and Watson meeting each other, while Holmes was beginning to run low on funds. His decision would mean a remarkable set of experiences ahead. It's just a Trifle.

    And we have some bonus content related to a particular footnote of Baring-Gould's in this chapter. It's available exclusively for our supporters.

    The Man with the Watches (The Apocrypha Part 2)
    Apr 9 2025

    “I would read as easily as I do the apocrypha” [VALL]

    The second in our series on the Apocrypha of Sherlock Holmes — stories that are not in the original Canonical 60 but that have some relevant interest. In this case, we have a story written by Arthur Conan Doyle in 1898 and set in 1892 involving the mysterious death of a passenger on a train. The murderer is nowhere to be found and the man has an unusual number of watches on his person.

    A "well-known criminal investigator" writes a letter to the press with an explanation. We briefly discuss the story and the many theories as to the authorship of those letters over the years by numerous Sherlockians. It's just a Trifle.

    This season, we've added "Trifling Trifles" — short-form content that doesn't warrant a full episode — as an additional channel of content exclusively for our paying subscribers.

Excellent my dear Watson

My favorite Sherlockian podcast. The world is a better place with Scott and Bert extolling the trifles of 1895 in Victorian England. A must listen podcast.

Enlightening, Entertaining, and Educational

This podcast is spectacular. Scott and Burt have great camaraderie, and their appreciation for the Sherlockian world is evident. If you're looking for a spectacular podcast, this, along with their "I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere," podcast is a fantastic show.
