    Tales of Light, Shadow, and Darkness
    Aug 16 2024
    “culminated in that moment of revelation” [3GAR] As an educator, Tracy Revels makes sure her students have fun learning. Which would explain why at her college, students can take one of her classes about Sherlock Holmes. But Tracy's own love of learning and reading gave rise to another outlet for her fascination with Sherlock Holmes: writing. Her Shadow trilogy (Shadowfall, Shadowblood, and Shadowwraith) find Sherlock Holmes in the world of the occult, and her series of 41 short stories, previously published in various volumes of The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories, are due out as a trilogy this fall. We explore these with her, as well as some of the more memorable projects that have sprouted from the creative minds of the students that Tracy inspired along the way. You won't be disappointed with the Sherlockian news, Madeline Quinones' segment "A Chance of Listening," and another Canonical Couplet quiz. The winner, chosen at random from all correct answers, will receive a piece of Sherlockiana from our vaults, Send your answer to comment @ ihearofsherlock .com by August 29, 2024 at 11:59 a.m. EDT.

    Jul 31 2024
    “we have our story-teller here” [SIGN] Glen Miranker is always good for a story. And more times than not, his stories involve fascinating items from his extensive collection. In this episode, we had a chance to talk with Glen about This Work of Storytelling: Arthur Conan Doyle's speech to the Authors' Club, London, June 29, 1896, published by Wessex Press. The book consists of a facsimile manuscript of the speech, together with other letters and documents, essays, and commentary from a variety of Sherlockians. Along the way, a mystery is solved and we have the added pleasure of the writing of Cathy Miranker, Glen's wife and co-conspirator in this and the traveling exhibition of 221 objects from his collection. Also, we have Sherlockian news, Madeline Quinones' segment "A Chance of Listening," and another Canonical Couplet quiz.

  • Luke Barton as Sherlock Holmes

    Luke Barton as Sherlock Holmes
    Jul 16 2024
    “quick insight into character” [BERY] As Americans, it is always a joy to meet an Englishman, and doubly so if he portrays Sherlock Holmes. Luke Barton has done that not only on stage but in audiobooks as well. Our conversation with Luke explores how he has prepared for his many appearances as Holmes on stage — including one production in which he alternated the roles of Holmes and Watson. His insights into the deeper aspects of the detective are admirable, and his skill is evident. We have Sherlockian news, Madeline Quinones' segment "A Chance of Listening," and a special comedy feature feature written by our own Erik Deckers. Oh, and of course the Canonical Couplet quiz. The winner, chosen at random from all correct answers, will receive a piece of Sherlockiana from our vaults, Send your answer to comment @ ihearofsherlock .com by July 29, 2024 at 11:59 a.m. EDT.

  • Legends of the BSJ: James Montgomery

    Legends of the BSJ: James Montgomery
    Jun 30 2024
    “remarkably rich tenor voice” [VALL] Following the feedback we got from our previous Legends of the BSJ episode on Edgar W. Smith, we thought we'd continue with another. This time, it's James Montgomery, BSI ("The Red Circle"), who was a frequent correspondent with Smith. Montgomery played an important role in the development of the Baker Street Journal — a role whose effects are still felt until this day. His tenor voice graced many dinners of the Baker Street Irregulars and other Sherlock Holmes societies, and his scholarship still stands strong today. In addition to the audio clips of Montgomery, we have Sherlockian news, listener comments, Madeline Quinones' segment "A Chance of Listening," and of course the Canonical Couplet quiz.

  • A West Wind

    A West Wind
    Jun 15 2024
    “we turned our faces westward” [SIXN] While Sherlock Holmes is a perennial British subject, his influence in and by America cannot be denied. Conan Doyle and Sherlock Holmes were admirers of the United States, and A West Wind, a recent BSI Press book, delves into that relationship. Co-editors Ray Betzner, BSI ("The Agony Column") and Tom Horrocks, BSI ("Colonel Sebastian Moran") join us to talk about this remarkable book. We're also joined by a contributor of the book who offers some insight into how Sherlock Holmes was presented to Americans visually. We have Sherlockian news, listener comments, our new segment, "A Chance of Listening," and of course the Canonical Couplet quiz. The winner, chosen at random from all correct answers, will receive a copy of A West Wind. Send your answer to comment @ ihearofsherlock .com by June 29, 2024 at 11:59 a.m. EDT.

  • Celebrating the Anniversary of the Oldest Sherlock Holmes Podcast

    Celebrating the Anniversary of the Oldest Sherlock Holmes Podcast
    Jun 14 2024

    “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 I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere on June 14, 2007 — exactly 17 years ago today — that we'd have this kind of longevity.

    That first episode 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 300 episodes since then, but in our companion show Trifles 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 Fresh Air and Car Talk for Sherlockians. It airs on the 15th and 30th of every month and you can find a complete listing of the Archives here.

    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!

  • Clutches of a Fiend

    Clutches of a Fiend
    May 31 2024
    “do but get into the clutches” [BOSC] We've held off a bit on the traditional interview with the editor of the BSI Manuscript Series this season — not for any lack of interest, but simply for scheduling reasons — but we hope it's worth the wait. Steve Doyle, BSI ("The Western Morning News") is the editor of Clutches of a Fiend, the BSI Manuscript entry for "The Adventure of the Illustrious Client," and he joined us to talk about this book. It's something personal for Steve, as he has a connection to the story via his local Sherlock Holmes society, The Illustrious Clients of Indianapolis. We talk about what makes this story (which was a favorite of Conan Doyle's) so different from others, about the ownership of the manuscript, and the striking visuals. We have Sherlockian news, a new segment, and of course the Canonical Couplet quiz. The winner, chosen at random from all correct answers, will receive a piece of Sherlockian memorabilia.

  • Legends of the BSJ: Edgar W. Smith

    Legends of the BSJ: Edgar W. Smith
    May 16 2024
    “I wanted to speak with Mr. Smith” [SIGN] This is the third in our series on Legends of the Baker Street Journal; we've previously explored publisher Ben Abramson (Episode 269) and BSI founder Christopher Morley (Episode 272). This time, we'll be looking at wordsmith and able administrator, Edgar W. Smith. It was Smith who deftly managed the operations of the Baker Street Irregulars and whose own interest in Sherlockian scholarship (his own and others) caused him to promote books and eventually found The Baker Street Journal. We follow Edgar's Sherlockian journey from his early correspondence with Vincent Starrett and Christopher Morley, to the 1940 dinner that brought the BSI roaring back to life, the Trilogy Dinner where three significant Sherlockian books were launched, the founding of the BSJ, and the addition of the Christmas Annual tradition. We have Sherlockian news, a special announcement, and of course the Canonical Couplet quiz. We thought last episode's was easy, but it looks like we tripped some people up. The winner, chosen at random from all correct answers, will receive one of the Old Series BSJs from the 1940s. Send your answer to comment @ ihearofsherlock .com by May 29, 2024 at 11:59 a.m. EDT.
