What better way to herald the resurrection of weekly episodes than the return of the wonderful Michelle de Swarte to the show? The gang was thrilled to welcome Michelle back, this time in front of a live audience at the first DWSC London Residency of 2024.Luckily for everyone, Michelle has been victim of a crime more than once, and so had a fresh story to share with the crowd, before reminding us of her incredible detective abilities, soon finding her feet on the force, and helping to solve a tawdry tale of sweaty beasts and demanding dandies, which may, or may not involve an icon from history. As always, we round off the show with a story from a member of the audience, and in this case the perpetrator certainly operated with intent.Look out for Michelle's new show 'Spent' which will air on the BBC in the UK, during late spring 2024 and see below for details of how to see the Drunk Women LIVE...Tickets are now on sale for the DWSC London residency at their NEW VENUE of The Museum of Comedy - full details and tickets for March, April, May and June shows can be found here - Drunk Women Solving Crime - The UK's hit true crime comedy podcastYou can also support the show on Patreon, and for as little as £3 a month, have access to ad free episodes, bonus content, live zoom records AND be the subject of one of Taylor's incredible shout outs - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Hello, lovely listener. The team at Drunk Women Solving Crime have an important announcement to make in this special episode. Our very own Detective Sasshole Catie has decided to leave the force, but as you’ll hear, this is by no means the end of the show, because Hannah and Taylor are not handing in their badges anytime soon...

Check out what happens in next week's episode when we welcome back the excellent Michelle de Swarte and this time, we thought there should be an audience in the theatre too...

But, it's not Men's Month, we hear those of you who are listening to this on release in February 2024 cry.... Yes, true, but Toby Williams isn't any old man, he's an actor, writer AND he married and impregnated our very own Hannah George, so it's actually well overdue that we hear from Mr HG himself.And what better occasion for him to grace the stage than when DWSC was live at the Ventnor Fringe, Hannah's home town on the Isle of Wight.As well as Toby confessing some criminal activity that could well see his marriage on the rocks (being 8 years old is NO excuse), the team also delves into a local crime proving that despite its twee image, the Isle of Wight is a hotbed of vice. We finish proceedings by hearing from somebody in the audience about a crime which originates in Taylor's homeland, which distracted her from the urge to climb-up the rigging of the tent at least! You can also support the show on Patreon, and for as little as £3 a month, have access to ad free episodes, bonus content, live zoom records AND be the subject of one of Taylor's incredible shout outs - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

It's time for a tidbit of next week's delicious offering, when we find out what happened last summer when the team took the show to Hannah's home Island as part of the Ventnor Fringe on the Isle of Wight! In a tent literally packed-to-the-trapeze, the team solved a historical, local crime, while being joined on stage by the man who did the impossible and made an honest woman of Hannah - right before he knocked her up - yes, it's Mr Hannah George, otherwise known as actor and writer, Toby Williams... The full episode will be available next Wednesday 21st February. In the meantime, why not catch up with the vast back catalogue of DWSC eps, featuring amazing guests like Katherine Ryan, Sara Pascoe, Desiree Burch, Samira Ahmed, Fern Britton, Shazia Mirza, Susie Dent... the list is (almost) endless. The Drunk Women are at The Museum of Comedy in March, April, May and June - so join them at their London residency, book early to avoid disappointment, as it's likely to sell out!

In today's episode, the gals are joined by the fantastic spy-crime writer, Ava Glass, who is behind the brilliant female lead spy books such as The Traitor, The Chase, and Alias Emma.These stories may (or may not?) have been inspired by her real-life encounters with female agents and the insight she gained while working with them.So, as well as finding out which Drunk Woman would make the best spy, Ava also shared a couple of crime stories from her own real life, one of which is proof of the lack of pockets in women's clothes makes us more vulnerable!The team then picks the bones of a true crime case from history, before hearing from a listener and DEFINITELY not making things worse for them.  We also get Taylor, Hannah and Catie's take on the brilliant new Sky series, True Detective: Night Country.True Detective: Night Country | Official Trailer (youtube.com) You can also support the show on Patreon, and for as little as £3 a month, have access to ad free episodes, bonus content, live zoom records AND be the subject of one of Taylor's incredible shout outs - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

As the Drunk Women continue to ease their way into 2024 with fortnightly releases, the gals think it's only right that we should get a little nugget of what we can expect in next week's episode, and so here's a taste of what happened when writer of female lead spy fiction, Ava Glass popped into the studio to tell Taylor, Hannah and Catie all about the spy who loved her (at least that's what she thought), how not having pockets made her an easy victim, and to help put some flesh on the bones of a case from history. All this and much more will be ready next week, but until then, why not go back through our back catalogue and reacquaint yourselves with some of the other 277 amazing episodes? You can also support the show on Patreon, and for as little as £3 a month, have access to ad free episodes, bonus content, live zoom records AND be the subject of one of Taylor's incredible shout outs - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Here's what happened in the 'second show of the show' at the very last DWSC residency of 2023, and as you may have heard in the teaser trailer, it's a riotous affair!The hilarious Alexandra Haddow joined the force to help the gang maraud through this tawdry tale of a VERY rare situation.Before we get stuck into that, Alexandra starts things off by sharing a crime against dating (and trainers) and then at the end, a brave audience member tells us the most millennial crime of the millennium ... well, of the bit of the millennium it was recorded in anyway. You can also support the show on Patreon, and for as little as £3 a month, have access to ad free episodes, bonus content, live zoom records AND be the subject of one of Taylor's incredible shout outs - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

As the team releases episodes fortnightly during January and February of 2024 so our Hannah can have some restful maternity leave (maternity leave IS restful, right?), we thought it only fair to give you all a sneak peak of what happens on next week's show, with the hilarious, Alexandra Haddow, recorded at the final London residency of '23.What was the intel that Hannah received during the interval? Who is Catie singing 'Happy Birthday'' to? And what does Taylor think is 'even better than murder'? Well, there's not long to find out my friends, but until you get to hear this episode in all its glory - why not go back through our back catalogue and reacquaint yourselves with some of the other 276 amazing episodes? You can also support the show on Patreon, and for as little as £3 a month, have access to ad free episodes, bonus content, live zoom records AND be the subject of one of Taylor's incredible shout outs - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

New year, new you? Not for the Drunk Women it's not, they plan to continue exactly how they've been going, as today's episode proves! As you'll hear, it's very much business as usual as comedian and improviser, Alison Thea-Skot joined the ladies on stage during their final residency show of 2023 to tell us about the time Paul Abdul was stolen from her life and help solve a crime from the 1990s that will have you looking at cardboard cut-outs in a whole new light.We continue with the 90s theme for the listener story, as a member of the live audience shared the only crime to have happened in Finland during that decade, which also happened to involve the disappearance of a UK Britpop band. Throughout January and February of 2024, the Drunk Women will be releasing episodes fortnightly, to allow for some well-deserved materiality leave for our Hannah, but don’t worry, weekly episodes recommence at the start of March 2024!  In the meantime, why not go back and remind yourself of some of the other amazing episodes that are already out? AND for as little as £3 a month, you can support them on Patreon and get access to live Zoom recordings, ad free episodes AND be the subject of one of Taylor's amazing shout-outs! Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon  Hosted on Acast.

Well, it is now that Catie, Hannah and Taylor have given us their festive message!So much has happened in 2023, from selling out our biggest room yet at this year's Edinburgh Fringe, to another storming London residency, winning an Independent Podcast Award AND Hannah bringing us a brand new member of the force in the form of her daughter!There's also a lot to look forward to in 2024, so see ya there!

It's part two of the DWSC Flo and Joan special, when we welcome 'Joan' aka Rosie Dempsey to the stage and enable her to get some closure on being the subject of two very different crimes, one of which will make you shake with fear at the thought of visiting the Isle of Wight! The team then solve a case which reads more of a map of Hannah's places of residence than it should do and proves that the written word falling into the wrong hands can be way worse than your WhatsApp messages being made public. Lastly, what better way to wrap-up a lovely evening than hearing about the time an audience member was the victim of criminal activity, although this case is proof that sometimes crime DOES pay!BUT this isn’t all! We take a short 5mins in the middle of the episode to find out what our gals would do if they won the lottery, AND they speak to another podcaster about what they might do with this instant wealth. This has a particular interest for Catie, as that podcaster happens to be her husband, Richard Herring, who may, or may not tell her if his numbers should come up (AWKWARD)! Support DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

This episode was released in the darkest days of winter, BUT it was actually recorded back in the heady days of summer when Taylor, Catie and Hannah took to the stage for one of their infamous DWSC residency shows in London, in which they achieved the impossible and split apart comedy double act (and real-life sisters) Flo and Joan - aka Nicola and Rosie Dempsey.You can now hear show one of that night, when Nicola (Flo) joined the ladies on stage to recount the time she stood next to a crime, which involved a celebrity friend and saw first-hand how the police reacted to the famous prey.The team then dive straight into a story which has all the hallmarks of a tale you couldn't make up - and will confirm your lack of even the most basic of survival skills.We then hear from an audience member whose crime story is a hard one for anyone to follow and had a sticky start rather than a sticky end.Next week, it's part two of this Flo and Joan double bill, when you'll hear what happened when Rosie Dempsey joined the force, and helped solve a crime which straddles the stomping grounds of our very own Hannah George. Support DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

It's the last of our 'five guys of 23' as Men's Month draws to a close for another year and completing the stellar line up is the incredible comedian Kuan-Wen Huang, who for the first time in DWSC history brought along a side kick, who also happened to be a victim in his crime story, his bear Nounours!Kuan- Wen tells us about the time a would be kidnapper tried to abduct Nounours, but got more than he reckoned for and will probably never again decide he can pick on someone by appearances alone.The team then pick apart the life and times of someone the word 'eccentric' was probably invented for, proving the point that some people just have too much money, and will do anything to get their hands on even more. We finally hear from a listener who can't stress enough how much they spend on vanilla, or that they suspect a ghost of being a thief in their household.Thanks to all our wonderful Men's Month guests of 2023, it's lovely to give them all their big breaks … until next year!!Support DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Men's Month hits national treasure status this week, as the team were thrilled when actor, comedian, presenter and expert in accents, Les Dennis agreed to come round to Hannah's flat to drink some Malbec and solve a crime, and it turns out, he’s a natural! Les sifted through his top ten of criminal experiences to share with us the time his skills as a performer saved him from a violent encounter, and even managed to ultimately enlist the help of his would-be attackers in finding some lost property. We then hear about a crime, which if it hadn't happened, would make the perfect case for Inspector Clouseau, and a natural accompaniment for Les' Malbec … although we definitely recommend giving the holy grail a rinse out before you pour any wine in. Finally, the team solves a listener crime in which we discover that most cats are either psychic, have IBS, or both! Support DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

We're smack bang in the middle of Men's Month 2023 and this edition is a walk down memory lane, when our Drunk Women took the show to a sell-out crowd at the Edinburgh Fringe, only for poor Hannah to be struck down by the dreaded Covid and so, was forced to head home.But, in her place we recruited the finest sub detective in all the land in the form of actor, comedian and super sleuth, Ruth Bratt! By this time, Ruth was very at home in her role on the force and it didn't take this week's guest too long to get to grips with the ways of Taylor and Catie either, as comedian Christopher Hall lit up the stage and got stuck right in with the drinking and solving. Chris started off the show by recounting a time of teenaged rebellion which ultimately cost him a career as a clarinettist and proves he probably couldn't make it as a wrestler. The team then solve a crime which proves that murder is more of a crowd pleaser than the royal family, and a ‘mum look’ can scare the bejesus out of the most hardened criminal. We then hear from a member of the audience with a cautionary tale should you be confronted with someone trained in the way of the samurai. Support DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Men's Month continues a pace and today is a throwback to the heady days of Edinburgh Fringe 2023, when comedian, broadcaster and former barrister, Clive Anderson threw caution to the wind and joined Taylor, Catie and Hannah on stage, impressing the sell out crowd with his phone's umbilical cord as well as the ability to solve crimes.Clive started off the night with a tale from his 'wild' student days - thank goodness he didn't go down the wrong path all those years ago!The whole team then solve a mystery which had police scratching their heads at the time, but then again, they didn't have Clive Anderson on the force.Finally, a member of the audience leapt up on stage to share a story where the crime could be the theft of a night out! Support DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

It comes around faster and faster every year, doesn't it? Yes, Men's Month is here again and what a way to kick things off, as we welcome the star of hip hop, podcasting and a whole lot more besides, Scroobius Pip!As this was recorded over Zoom, we invited our wonderful Patreons to watch the spectacle, and boy what a sight it was to behold, as Pip, started things off with a duo of crimes that gives us an insight into his incredible taste in art and negotiation skills.We then get to hear about a crime from the past which beggars many questions, including the debate about cows and horses’ ability to bend their knees in both directions.We then hear from one of the watching Patreons about the demise of a local establishment and if having a sticky floor is ever acceptable! If you want to join the gang on their next live Zoom, or get a shout out from Taylor and ad free episodes, just go to Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon  Hosted on Acast.

In this week's episode, the team are back in Hannah's flat to guzzle some vino and solve some crimes!Joining them in these pursuits is the hilarious comedian and reluctant cat whisperer, Kate Barron, who kicks it all off with a crime featuring a cracking set of characters - not all of them human.The team then makes mincemeat of a story crazy enough to really make a song and dance about.And finally, we hear from a listener who might have had one or two Scooby snacks before writing in... they would have managed it too, if it weren't for those pesky Drunk Women!  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In today's episode our guest isn't only a published author, but Kate Weston also joined us on book publication day itself because she was DYING to help solve a crime which is already an odds-on favourite. Kate kicked it all off with a duo of criminal stories that prove words can be the worst weapon of all, before Hannah trotted out a fantastic story for the gang to get their teeth into. Finally, we hear from a listener who is keen to turn the tables on the perpetrator of the most generous burglary on record!Kate's brilliant book is available now - Murder on a School Night: The best funny new YA crime thriller of 2023! : Weston, Kate: Amazon.co.uk: BooksSupport DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

In today's episode, the gang assembled in the hottest room available in London to restore justice and solve some crimes.They weren't sweating it out alone though, as they were joined by actor and writer Lisa Greenwood, who proved to be hot stuff in the detective department.Lisa reveals a web of criminal activity she's been exposed to and can possibly never go to Romford again and should definitely be accompanied if attempting to visit the Kent coast, so she doesn’t get the wrong train and end-up behind bars instead... which is feasible. The team then join forces to solve a misdemeanour from days of yore...whenever that was, Dickens may or may not have been there, but that's not important to the story. We then have a listener tale, which brings streams of pleasure to the group when they manage to solve it - once and for all. Support DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

The team at Drunk Women Solving Crime LOVE a mash-up, and this week's episode is a mash made in heaven, as we join forces with Chris, Helen, and James from the wonderful Empire Film Podcast to bring you, DRUNK WOMEN EMPIRE!Luckily the London Podcast Festival was able to provide a stage big enough for six members of the force to solve a film-based crime, and it was a natural meeting of minds, as not only can the Drunk Women and Empire teams combine incredible sleuthing skills with encyclopaedic film knowledge, but each podcast boasts an inhouse impressionist. Regular listeners to DWSC will be familiar with the format, although there are a couple of twists - for which we won't give any spoilers - but as always, we hear from the audience who have their own crimes that need solving, one of which could see us all in court as accessories - how exciting! We hope you enjoy this merger as much as we enjoyed merging, if you do, why not give it a review?

Oh, what a night.... well, it was the final show at this year's Edinburgh Fringe, and thank goodness the brilliant comic, Thenjiwe was there to share it with us!As this was the last night without our very own Hannah George, it was also the last occasion our newest, brightest member of the force, Ruth Bratt acted as stand in.The team would like to give a heartfelt thanks to Ruth for stepping in at incredibly short notice, and for being such amazing member of the gang. The only way we can better this is to get Ruth back on one of the live shows with Taylor, Catie AND Hannah all in attendance. Thank you so much Ruth, you are officially the chief of police and a drunk woman who can indeed solve crimes.We were also blessed that guest, Thenjiwe, was not only being an incredible detective, but also proved she had the Monopoly when it comes to crime solving skills, which helped an enormous amount with getting to the bottom of a story which was more than a trunk than a case.We finally heard from a member of the audience, whose criminal story was a bunch of pants - and we mean that in the nicest possible way. Support DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

On this week's episode, we put ourselves in the shoes of our guest Jo Caulfield, as the brilliant comedian opens the show with an audacious tale of bare faced cheek, but at least the rest of the panel were able to conSOLE her in her hour of need.As this was recorded in the latter part of the DWSC sold-out Edinburgh run, the part of Hannah is being played by the lovely Ruth Bratt, as she stepped-in to assist Taylor and Catie to help solve a crime which involves some of the most hat stand characters you would have met in a while. Finally we hear from a member of the audience who presents a family mystery for the gang to solve... at least they didn't make it worse! Support DWSC on Patreon for as little as £3 a month, you will have access to add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

The Drunk Women are still in Edinburgh for this episode, well two of them are, as poor, covid struck Hannah is still being played by the wonderful Ruth Bratt!Thanks to Ruth, the show was able to go on, as she joined the force alongside Taylor and Catie to welcome this week's guest, comedian Sooz Kempner!Sooz opens the show with the time she was the meat in a crime sandwich - and a solid lesson in living one's best life, even if you've only got £40 left in the bank.The team then drape themselves over a criminal tale, involving one of the world's most notorious literary figures.We finally hear from a member of the audience in which the perpetrator really does take the p*ss...AND you can support the Drunk Women on Patreon, where you'll have access to watch live zoom records, ad free episodes and one of Taylor's famous shout-outs! Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

This episode marks the midway point of this year’s incredible DWSC Edinburgh Fringe shows, but the elation of the sell-out run was severely tempered when our very own detective Hannah 'Butt Stuff' George had to return home, after contracting Covid!But, as much of a disaster as this was, the show MUST go on, and so, with Hannah's blessing, we ordained a new member of the force, who carried her new burden with aplomb - it's the brilliant, actor, comedian, improvisor, -and now crime solver extraordinaire - Ruth Bratt!The team can't thank Ruth enough for coming on board for the next few eps (and one in Men's Month) and we know you'll love her too (**Hannah who?).Also, making the absence of our favourite Titanic obsessive a little easier, is this week's remarkable guest, the hilarious, Susie McCabe!Susie shares a crime story with us from her own misspent youth, where she was clearly in no fit state to dictate a photofit.The team then solve a crime ‘witch’ would make them worthy of joining any coven in the land, and lastly we hear from a member of the audience, who confirms all our suspicions about archaeologists are definitely true. **Clearly a joke, there is a Hannah shaped hole in all the episodes she's not in - and being in the pregnant state she is at the time ofwriting, that hole is of considerable size.

We're back in Edinburgh for another fantastic episode of DWSC from their amazing sell-out run at the Fringe!Today's packed audience were in for a treat - and now, so are you, dear listener, as the gang welcomes their first member of parliament as guest, with Scottish MP, Mhairi Black!Mhairi opens the show with a criminal escapade, which would have taken a very different turn if she'd just had a glass of water.The team of detectives then 'Copp' hold of a tale which is 'Contancely' fascinating and involves one of the first female law enforcers, and a silky smooth criminal.We then hear from a member of the audience who certainly shouldn't have been the butt of this particular crime!And don't forget to support them on Patreon -Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

The Drunk Women continue their Edinburgh odyssey, as they bring to you this gem recorded at the Fringe in 2023, with the incredible Bridget Christie!Bridget opens the show with a glamorous tale, which could easily be a storyline from Sex and the City ... she might also be a member of a gang involving ferrets, no one is really sure.The team then get into a lather over this week's case, before a member of the audience *probably solved where the term 'many happy returns' comes from....*Probably Come to the Drunk Women's final residency of 2023 on Friday 8th September at 21Soho 21Soho Shows — 21Soho (21-soho.com)And at the London Podcast Festival, Kings Place in September, with a very special mash-up with The Empire Podcast!

Hands-up who loves a comedy podcast...all of you?

Joining the Drunk Women on the second show of their Edinburgh Fringe run, was not only a sold out audience, but also the legendary comedian, author and improviser, Pippa Evans.Pippa started off the night with a tale of tables and punches flying, a police caution and the ruining of Christmas ... not something you'd associate with the UK city of Bath.All of this sets us up nicely to hear about the dodgy dealings of breakfast cereal copyright law, which is not as dry as it sounds, even if it does involve Shredded Wheat.We then have a DWSC first, as the audience crime is told by a duo, who were exemplary at sharing the same microphone and thoroughly earned their prize of a bottle of Cava!Join our Patreon for add free episodes, shout outs and the opportunity to watch live Zoom recordings - Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | Patreon Hosted on Acast.

The Drunk Women are back in Edinburgh and already storming their Fringe run with sell out shows and incredible guests, and what a way to kick things off, as the team welcomes back the wonderful comedian Catherine Bohart!Regular listeners may remember hearing Catherine's first DWSC appearance, which was recorded online, in the dark days of lockdown, so what a joy to be able to see her in the flesh and in front of such a lovely audience.Catherine (luckily) has had more than one experience with crime, and so shares a story in which the perpetrators involved are far from conservative in their criminality. The gang then get their heads around a tale, in which we learn an awful lot about what one can do with the 'blunt' end of an axe, and that picking strawberries can prove to be a deadly pursuit.To round things off, we hear from a member of the audience, who was shook by the misdemeanours of mysterious neighbours ... although Catherine still isn't convinced of the criminal credentials of the story.

The gals are back in the studio for this rip roaring edition of Drunk Women Solving Crime, most of the rip, and a good deal of the roar, being supplied by this week's sublime guest, comedian Chloe Petts! Although this was recorded on the sweatiest day on record (probably) in London Town, that didn't stop Chloe from stawpedoing a Smirnoff Ice right before we pressed record ... no mean feat considering we didn't really have a straw.Chloe was then revved-up enough to share with us a biting tale of childhood forensics and a teacher who surely missed their vocation in law enforcement?We then get involved with a story which stinks in more ways than one, before solving a crime which left a listener feeling more than a little short changed. Support them on Patreon at patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

Hooray! It's another fantastic DWSC residency show, featuring the fabulous comedian, Jordan Gray... AND more than a few mentions of the wonderful audience member from the last episode (featuring Rachel Fairborn), the one and only Bram!If you listen to the episodes in order, then you'll know that Bram provided last week's audience crime, and this week's lovely audience member,and their crime, is just as legendary and also perhaps the best 'sorry I'm late for school' excuse EVER!As always though, our guest kicks things off and it would appear school days trauma is a running theme, as Jordan shares the time she was victim of a childhood sting, which we wouldn't be surprised if it still stung today TBH.This week's main case gives us some insight about what it was like to be the first female detective on the force, and you'll be surprised to hear that she wasn't given an easy ride by her male colleagues I know, weird!Support them on Patreon at patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

This week's episode, recorded at the DWSC London residency, welcomes a return guest in the shape and form of comedian (and one half of All Killa No Filla) Rachel Fairburn!And what a joy it was to see her again, as she shared with us some life incidences, which although may not be classed as crimes, absolutely should be!Such grievances should be reported to someone who sits in the middle of mother and the police and the team worked out just who this very particular keeper of the peace is, you'll be relived to know.The gang also got to the bottom of a 'budget X-Files' case in which a girl seemingly disappears from the face of the earth AND we find out which coma is best, as one kind clearly outranks the other.Then, we hear from a member of the audience, who for reasons which will become clear, must surely be show mascot from now on - Bram, we salute you, never change! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This episode was recorded at the DWSC London residency, and the place was buzzing to welcome a fellow member of podcast royalty to the stage in the form of Tolly T, who is one third of the chart topping Receipts Podcast!Tolly proved herself more than able in the role of detective and as her opening crime proved, the police are certainly not worthy of benefitting from her skills... at least not until they pay for her car that is!Our gang of crime solvers then analyse the activities of some actual gang leaders, which may or may not have involved some topless shenanigans.We then hear from a member of the audience whose story would quite frankly justify any kind of criminal behaviour, and if anyone knows Tolly...this definitely DIDN'T happen to her. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Drunk Women are back at their London residency, which is a joy in itself and adding to that joy, is the wonderful comedian Harriet Kemsley!Harriet starts off the show with a criminal tale from her childhood, which shows some incredible early kills at the sick burn, as well as offering sartorial advice to any potential criminal out there!The gang then grapple with a crime which was sent in by a listener - feel free to do the same, but perhaps insist on furnishing whoever elects to host that episode with all the facts, especially the basic ones.We finally get a member of the audience up on the mic to earn a bottle of cava by sharing a crime story from their lives, and it would appear that whoever the perpetrator was, they were a shoe-in as suspect.

Today's episode of Drunk Women Solving Crime was one of their epic live Zooms attended by the amazing Patreons who support the show.Someone who definitely did their fair share of chatting and crime solving was this week's guest, the brilliant comedian and podcaster Abigoliah Schamaun!Abigoliah started us off with a bunch of stories which are a baptism of fire to anyone who decides to make London their permanent residence - let's just say, it pays to be stoic in England's capital cityThe team then set about solving a crime which was sent in by an eagle eyed listener, which involves the court case of the century (or at least in the top 20).And finally one of the watching patrons contributes a crime which escalates quickly and perhaps could have been prevented a good 2 decades before?see below for information on how you could be at the next zoom record and join in with the chat!

Our drunken detectives are back in the studio for this episode and joining them to flex some impressive detective muscle is actor and writer, Frog Stone!Frog starts us off with a tale which will make you reminisce about your own once prized childhood possessions, now cast into the void and might also give you soon boombox envy.We then all get to immerse ourselves in a case which has a body of evidence stacked against the perps, before we round things off with a listener crime which pol(e)arised opinion... you'll see what I did there once you listen.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Another day, another fantastic recording of DWSC from their monthly London residency, and this week the team are joined by none other than the incredible, Rosie Jones! As well as finding out what having an ass that won't quit really means, we also learn about why Rosie believed a certain childhood possession may well have been cursed, AND why Enya is seen a malevolent presence at one of the Drunk Women's family Christmases. The team then cracks a case in which we really do get the whole picture, and then a member of the audience shares a story, which seems to happen to a lot of people's friends of friends...hmmmmmm. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Two, four, six, eight - who do we appreciate? This week's guest of course, who happens to be the fantastic writer and activist, Cicely Belle Blain!Cicely joined the team at their residency in London, in front of a packed-out audience, which also happened to contain her mother, who will only entertain sitting f'row, for maximum effect.Cicely starts things off with a story worthy of its own Netflix special, let's just say, if you enjoyed the Tinder Swindler, this will be RIGHT up your strasse.We then hear the details of a crime which happens to involve the 'worst woman in London' no less ...does she move cities, or manage to get an even worse nick name? Listen to find out!We then hear from one of the lovely audience members, who, with their crime, gives us the opportunity to blame the mother, and as we all know, it doesn't get better than that!  Hosted on Acast.

How on earth can you nearly get arrested while reporting a crime to the police? Well, according to this week's guest, comedian and 'business lady' Jo Griffin, it's all too easy!Jo's opening story will make you yearn for a Bacardi Breezer in Leicester Square (probably), but I would suggest to anyone to pop into the Yates bar there should you get caught short.We then hear about a crime, which involves one of our fantastic listener's ancestors, and it's a story which - if Taylor has anything to do with it - could be turned into a musical, so get ready to sing along.This week's listener crime will have you in detention if you find it funny, no laughing in class!
