It's time for a very special episode! Our favourite foe, Mike, purchased a Ko-Fi request for an on-mic murder mystery and we were happy to oblige.
Matt, Mike and Detective Jamie (daughter of Sherlock Holmes) are all extras in the upcoming sci-fi horror film Blood Red Planet. But when the star, Jacob Stone, is discovered dead in his trailer, our trio must work together to find out who killed him and why! In a feat of transformative acting (i.e. cycling between three different accents) Cass plays every witness in the case. Was it the director? The co-stars? Someone on the crew? Or the sinister craft services manager who Matt, Mike and Jamie are sure has an eyepatch and a hairless cat?
This is an original murder mystery written by Cassandra Tse. The format is ripped off shamelessly from the wonderful podcast Solve This Murder. If you liked this episode, donate to our Ko-Fi for more! If you didn't like it, don't worry – we'll be returning to Joliewood next episode.
