    The Materia Medica of Sherlock Holmes
    Apr 1 2026

    "researches which have a medico-criminal aspect" [DYIN]

    This month, the Morley-Montgomery Award brings us up to the year 2006, when Harold Billings pulled out some serious research originating in Edinburgh. His article "The Materia Medica of Sherlock Holmes" in Vol. 56, No. 3 of The Baker Street Journal helps us understand the sources Holmes may have used for his non-traditional education in the medical field. It may be more than just a Trifle. If you have a question for us, please email us at trifles@ihearofsherlock.com. If you use your inquiry on the show, we'll send you a thank you gift. There's a new "Trifling Trifles" episode out — short-form content that doesn't warrant a full episode. We release these at the beginning of every month. The latest episode is "for those with ears attuned to catch the distant "view-halloo!" This is a benefit exclusively for our paying subscribers. Check it out (Patreon | Substack).

    "through the courtesy of Mr. Moriarty" [FINA]

    As a student and practitioner of the latest forensic sciences as they pertained to the world of crime, Sherlock Holmes was on the cutting edge. He even wrote a number of monographs on topics related to crime. One might think that among them we might find "on the use of fingerprints to identify criminals." This is not the case. Why, we even had trouble finding trifling details about fingerprints in the entire Canon. Yet it's just a Trifle. If you have a question for us, please email us at trifles@ihearofsherlock.com. If you use your inquiry on the show, we'll send you a thank you gift. There's a new "Trifling Trifles" episode out — short-form content that doesn't warrant a full episode.

    "through the courtesy of Mr. Moriarty" [FINA]

    Each month, we look at a bit of Sherlockian scholarship that deserves to be unearthed and explored. Together, we consider the trifling matter is concerns. This month, we look at A.G. Macdonell's chapter "Mr. Moriarty" in the 1934 landmark publication Baker Street Studies, edited by H.W. Bell. And it's just a Trifle.

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.

Enlightening, Entertaining, and Educational

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.

Excellent my dear Watson
