Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Time to get a little mischievous, a little rascally, while also still quite gentlemanly - it's Arsène Lupin! Today we cover the first half of the original collection of stories that make up the origins of the famous thief, which includes some fun romps through France, mysterious necklaces being stolen, and perhaps even impressing a few ladies along t...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! After already having some Columbo, we're going back to the fridge at 2:12am for more Columbo. This time around we've watched "Suitable for Framing," an excellent episode with twists, turns, and plenty of pestering the criminal. Hell, Columbo falls asleep right in the villain's apartment! What do we think of the culprit, the art theming, and several e...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we have a very special episode for you: it's Tiago's birthday when we recorded this, and you'll hear about it no less than seven times during the runtime (possibly more)! Oh, and we also watched Murder on the Orient Express, the 1974 adaptation of the iconic Agatha Christie novel of the same name. We forget actor's names, discuss the ethics of ...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! We wrap up our coverage of The Innocence of Father Brown with some wild ups and downs, between atheist cobblers, hammers plummeting from the skies, journeying to fairyland, and worshiping the sun the sun the sun! We also deal with some old-timey racism, wonder whether women can wield hammers, and all the fun Catholicism can hold for us. Or not. Any r...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! This episode tackles another iconic and influential detective: Father Brown! We chat about this scrungly little priest who has heard all the deepest darkest secrets from criminals, and now puts that knowledge to use to catch them. And sometimes befriend them! (We all become huge fans of Flambeau basically right away.) As we make our way through the f...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we're watching the first episode of the original Columbo TV movies, "Murder by the Book!"

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we're starting with one of the classics: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's first Sherlock Holmes novel, A Study in Scarlet! We figured our curriculum needed a solid base first, so why not start with the most famous detective of all time? We tackle the character of Holmes, the odd second half of the book, and Watson's immediate fondness for the man. Of c...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose complete their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! We've done it! Every Ace Attorney game is now completed, so we take an episode to debrief, catch up, and answer some listener questions, too!
