531 Farewell For The Forseeable Future
Jul 29, 202300:21:41Tap to summarizeThis podcast has been long overdue, and we finally realized it was time to publish it when it had been almost a year since we've published and with no guilt or pangs of remorse with everything else going on we felt now was the time to step back. We explain in great detail why. The show will remain open so listeners can checck past episodes. Farewell and godspeed. .

Aug 29, 202202:01:13Tap to summarizeThis is the week we finally relaunch. There's a bit of disscussion in the beginning about Matt's long absence and then we'll dive right back in whefre we left off. With Navy Lark, that means right back to Series 12 and we leaarn what happens when Troutbridge winds up in Shanghai, rather then Shankley and what happens when an old flame enters Povy's office. Then it's off to London late 1890s as we continue our look at The Casebook Of Sherlock Holmes and The Three Garadebs. enjoy.
