We've come at last to the FINAL EPISODE. And while that kiss does wait until literally the last minute, some might argue (Genevieve) that that's exactly perfect for a show with a permanent, sizzling undertone of unending sexual tension, some (MacKenzie) point out that they could have kissed HUNDREDS of times before the event finally takes place. Thank goodness there's a movie now! We manage to get a Harry Potter reference in, and of course, so many CLUES. There's not one but two convoluted murde...

At long last, we've come to The Spider Episode. Not only does this episode feature a 10/10 murder method, it features A Very Healthy Amount of sexual tension. We're left wondering: is Stanley Burrows an old friend of Aunt Prudence's or an Old Friend? Plus, did tennis stars in the 1920s travel with a personal supply of bootleg whiskey? We don't answer these questions in the podcast so don't get your hopes up on that front, but we do deliver on a much-needed tangent about Jane Austen, as well as ...

If you thought Phryne being able to speak Polish was the skill of the week on this one, you'd be wrong! While we think there should be altogether more ghosts in this episode, there's just exactly the right amount of Aunt Prudence at her irate best. You know when an elderly relative dishes on your parents' past? And when they say that thing that everyone else is thinking out loud in front of everyone? Aunt Prudence delivers. Plus Dot gets some sexual tension and we don't hate it.

Don't you hate it when your house is overrun with women with nervous troubles? You let one in and the next thing you know you have a whole sanitarium on your hands. We're joined by guest host Sarah and discuss the need for another episode where Phryne goes undercover at the rodeo and we get to meet Rinaldo in the flesh. We also discuss the inordinate amount of clues strewn about the multiple crime scenes. You'd think with the high cost of consumer goods in the 1920's people wouldn't be so carele...

Full disclosure: we recorded this episode a few weeks/a thousand years ago before we were all in self-isolation because of COVID-19. Stay safe and healthy, friends. Wash your hands. Stay home. And listen along as Phryne achieves such feats as staying up all night, drinking a Bloody Mary with breakfast, and remaining sharp and functional all day long. (I had a beer at lunch once and couldn't coherently write an email, much less solve a murder. Good on ya, Phryne.) Dot achieves the arguably even m...

What's more ludicrous than a marinara boot print? Allowing yourself to be seduced by an Italian restaurateur without getting a meal out of it first! We learn that Phryne listens to Joni Mitchell and Concetta listens to Cher (obviously), and make apology for many Italian accent impersonations, food innuendos, and a couple non-Miss Fisher related tangents.

We're joined by guest host Dan for this episode to get a manly perspective on Miss Fisher. He thinks that Miss Fisher should track down the real killer: the tobacco industry (or, is it actually someone we've never suspected but has been right in front of us the whole time?). And, Bert has a love interest who's "hemming his trousers" *wink wink*, and we discuss even more Miss Fisher/Harry Potter crossover possibilities. Warning: contains more than a few communist jokes and puns (a "Red" herring a...

We're back, baby, we're back for Season 3- and once again, it's murder, folks. Dot is MVP this episode (give that woman a raise!), but the Baron's nerve tonic comes in a close second by teeing up that classic speech from Jack about liberal-minded men. While we have some questions about why you would ruin Cognac with sludge-like nerve tonic, and whether the real murderer is the really the ventriloquist's dummy, it doesn't keep us from loving this episode, which is SECRETLY about climate change.
