Update!
Hello, lovely detectives!
We’re sorry to say the stars did not align for us this week and so we’ve unfortunately unavoidably had to postpone this week’s episode.
The promised Rear Window bonus episode will instead arrive on Wednesday 12th August, after which, normal service will resume!
We’re sorry for this hopefully one-off delay, and thank you so much for being so understanding 💛
Crucially, we’re determined to make sure our paid subscribers get the best value for money, and we promise to ensure you’ll get the same number of bonus episodes this month that you would’ve done originally!
Rest assured, we’ve got plenty more heaters lined up for you all, as well as a few obscure ones that we’re dying to share with you. We’ll also be returning very soon to our Boy* in the Deerstalker Cap, who we reckon it’s high time we checked in on again.
In other news, we’re also considering the prospect of expanding slightly. This would include things like smaller follow-up blog posts from Your Local Librarian to explore subjects we didn’t end up having time to talk about in other episodes (the character of Pigs in Disco Elysium, or the novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit, for example).
We’re also exploring the possibility of hosting a live stream every now and again to check out some more obscure video games that we’d never otherwise have the time to devote a standalone episode to.
And speaking of “Live”, we’d love to take this show on the road in future… 👀 Watch this space!
Please let us know if that’s all something you’d be interested in!
Thank you once again for being such angels! Your support really does mean the world to us, and we’ll see you next time 💛
Keep being gay, keep solving crimes, and as always, kill Hitler.**
Much love,
L, M, N 🌳

Have got a real soft spot for the RDJ Holmes, and being the (I think first?) film to introduce the fact he could just box because it's one of his special interests. But are you gals going back to our boy Basil? Are you going to do The Spider Woman - aka - the most insane one of the series?!
1) take care of yourselves I'm honestly happy to pay Patreon $ for the rotating the concept of this podcast in my mind the episodes are just a bonus 2) love that you are doing RDJ Holmes who I at first hated with the fire of a thousand suns but now am quite fond of 3) as far as Holmes adaptations I can only hold out hope you will someday get to Soviet Holmes my beloved, but more importantly Miss Sherlock, which tbh has it all: a genderbent Holmes who is a fashionista dom cello player, an extra handsome Mycroft with interesting facial hair, a kind of electrocuted Lestrade, and a Watson that honestly does more justice to the character than any other adaptation
Jared Harris’ Moriarty in the sequel is like genuinely one of my favorite portrayals of him, the whole reversal of the “mental fight scene” feels so video game and anime that I kinda love it.
Bonus content is lovely so long as it doesnt over stretch you all! And my tiny Canadian heart remains hopeful that one day we'll entice some of you over for a live show!
You're likely ahead of me, but I hope that you will consider the BBC's production of Dennis Potter's "The Singing Detective."
RDJ Sherlock I think is a fun idea, but also I would give away a kidney (not necessarily my own) for an episode on the film that started the whole RDJ comeback, before his entire schtick became exhausting, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
Ooo the blog thing sounds awesome!
Excited for RDJ Holmes mostly so we eventually discuss Jared Harris singing Die Forelle/The Trout while he has RDJ on a meat hook
alas I'm contractually obligated to be gay and do crimes, so that the other girls might solve them. someone must be the villain. (thanks for the update, and it's all good 🌺)
Life happens, no worries! You all have been doing great, and thanks so much for all the insights and wonderful Content so far.
Life happens, even to podcasters! ...Danger 5 isn't a detective show...is it?
Interested in all of it! Live show, live streams, follow-ups! RDJ 👀 Here to support you gals because you're amazing, not to demand you produce content like clockwork!! Take your time and take care of yourselves! 💜
Would love a blog post about stuff, mega excited for a prospective live show
That's very okay, we need November to be fully podcast fit and y'all to deal with any other plots by your nemesis as you investigate crime. Photography and detecting (not perving on my neighbours) are my favourite things, so I am salivating at Rear Window. I do prefer Tommy Lee Miller and his slightly simian Holmes but appreciate you're probably saving Lucy Liu as a future treat!
Such is life. Looking forward to the everything.
All the best to Nova struggling with LARP Flu Genuinely think that follow-up blog posts on notes which didn't get covered in the episode is the best content I could hope for from the Patreon
oooh live show 👀
🕵♂️ It appears that sometimes life gets in the way. Super looking forward to the next instalment of my very favourite podcast, all of you are fantastic 💛🤍💜🖤
Well, it's called be Gay Solve Crimes. Not Be Swiss Post On Time, duh.
Stay safe, keep cool and hydrate girlypops
I've never been to a podcast live show before, but I'd absolutely try my hardest to make it to one for this! Also really don't worry about the delay
So, two notes here. The last one is an addendum, at best. Note 1: No problem girlies. (I also had to reflexively state that I'm a cishet, non-chaser Autist boy, so If I'm using the term 'girlie' incorrectly -I'm not LGBTQ+- do enlighten me. Note 2: Yay bonus content! I feel like there are always some notes left after the episode that you're all agonizing over, and my favorite Scottish librarian (I only know one lol) can handle that without Nova and Mia having to debase themselves. (honestly, it's mostly best girl Nova doing it live)
Thanks for keeping us in the loop, extra stuff and a live show would all be great - don't rush though, take your time! Looking forward to RDJ Holmes and endless Discombobulating
Delays happen, it's fine. But ooooh Discombobulate. Discombobulate. Discombobulate. Discombobulate.
I'm currently trying and failing to prevent this from registering on an emotional level
Looking forward to hearing more about live shows!
Alas! But I'm sure there are good reasons. Also, the illness that has seized one of the crew is unforgiving. Get well, and come back soon! ❤️
As an unironic massive fan of the RDJ holmes I am majorly hyped
The bare knuckle scene is one of the most fun character establishment scenes in any film imo
