  • A Complete Review of Murder She Baked: A Plum Pudding Mystery
    Jul 4 2024

    Over the holiday season, Hannah Swensen is making plum pudding and trying to solve the murder of a man in his own office. It turns out the list of suspects who would have wanted to see the guy dead is a long one, from a bitter ex-wife to exasperated investors. But Hannah is on the case, not to mention ready for a little Christmas season romance. Starring Alison Sweeney, Cameron Mathison, and Barbara Niven.

    Andrea and Eric return to 2015 to review the second installment of the Murder She Baked mysteries. In our recent episode, when we ranked our favorite mystery settings, this franchise, with its cozy small town in Minnesota, was Andrea's favorite. Did she think the mystery was as good as the location?

    We also share a little history about the invention of the Bundt Cake pan.

    Does it get any more exciting?

  • Ranking Hallmark Mysteries Best Location Settings
    Jun 20 2024

    We decided to tackle what Hallmark mystery is set in the best location. This was no small task. There are cozy small towns, exotic locations, big cities, basically everything you can think of.

    So, how did we do it? Purely unscientific, of course. We discovered that while we agreed with each other on rankings, we also looked for completely different things.

    Have a listen and let us know; do you think you are more like Andrea, or are you more like Eric?

  • A Complete Review Of Tipline Mysteries: Dial 1 for Murder
    Jun 13 2024

    Tipline Mysteries: Dial 1 for Murder
    A cryptic call about a planned jewelry heist draws a Detroit Free Press tipline operator, Maddie Moore, into a dangerous homicide case alongside a newly promoted detective. Starring Holland Roden and Chris McNally.

    We dived into the latest Hallmark Mystery and have to admit, we both really enjoyed it. It's maybe the best mystery of the year! The movie has all the fun of Cases of Mystery Lane, some of the depth of characters of Mystery 101, and a feel of Gourmet Detective.
