No episode this week, here's why...
ENormally today we would be putting out another cracking DWSC episode; unfortunately this week we will not be releasing an episode. This is because our dear producer Amanda came home this weekend to discover her flat had been burgled (I know, life imitating art, right?) Along with the devastation and sense of violation that brings, the intruder stole her laptop and all of her's jewellery, including this peacock brooch (pictured). It is a precious family heirloom, which Amanda's Great Grandfather had made for his wife, out of gems which a wartime evacuee they were housing gave as a thank-you gift to them (the evacuee's family owned a jewellery business). We are posting it here as a long-shot that anyone might spot this piece out in the world - on eBay, in a pawn shop in London, on Facebook marketplace - wherever. It is truly one of a kind and irreplaceable and would mean the world to our Amanda if it was some how, some way, returned to her. The good news is that we're a tight-knit female workplace and we will help Amanda regroup and will be back in action by next week! Lotsa love,DWSC Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 186Lauren Layfield & Mean Girls X5
EThe Drunk Women are giddy to be welcoming this week's guest IRL, as they enter the studio for the first time in 2 years!Joining them for this momentous occasion is TV & Radio presenter Lauren Layfield, who told the team about the most expensive taxi fare in history, which left her feeling a bit of a 'Dong'.The team then pops some corks, whilst they look into a case, which was a rather sober affair on the outside, and also reveals that gang culture is really just an amped-up version of 'Mean Girls.'Lastly, the team hears from a listener who was Dancin' in the Dark with her crime...until now....And you can support them on Patreon by visiting patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime.

S1 Ep 184DWSC LIVE: With Gráinne Maguire
ERecorded at their London residency in February 2022, the whole team is back together, and joining them is not only a room packed to the rafters of fellow drunk detectives but also returned to the force, comedian, and right-wing political pundit** Gráinne Maguire!** This might be a lie (it definitely IS a lie)Gráinne is back to treat us to another crime story from her life, this time it looks as though she may also be the perpetrator, due to inaction rather than malicious intent.The team then crack into a case that would have even Miss Marple and Poirot scratching their heads for answers.We then hear from a member of the audience whose Roman holiday had her returning to the UK with a suspect list that reads like the beginning of a joke.AND support them on Patreon HERE: patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 183DWSC LIVE: With Holly Burn
EThis episode was recorded at the DWSC London residency in front of a fantastic live audience, who weren't backward with coming forwards with their opinions on a story which involves yet another badass woman the history books forgot!Joining the team on stage is the hilarious comedian Holly Burn, who told some tales of criminal woe, which in some respects involved most of the Drunk Women, AND the other guest who was on the bill that night, comedian Grainne Maguire! It's a small world.As usual, a member of the audience is invited on stage, so the team can solve their crime mystery, the main one being, why do people in the US have MASSIVE holes in their front doors?AND you can support them on Patreon patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 182DWSC LIVE: With Angela Barnes
EThe Drunk Women have gone INTERNATIONAL - yes, they crossed water in A PLANE to the beautiful island of Guernsey to record this show in front of a fantastic audience of Sarnians (you'll find out what that means as you listen to the ep), BUT this episode has 60% less sass than usual, as Catie was unable to join the team, thanks to a horribly times bought of Covid, so Taylor and Hannah have no one to keep them in check, apart from the amazing Angela Barnes, who also hopped across to do a fantastic job at being the guest.As Angela has been on the show before, she dug deep and found another crime to talk about at the top of the show, and this time she opted to 'keep it light' we'll leave it up to you to decide if she managed that!The team then cracks into a case which will have struck a chord with many of the people in the live audience, not that crime is something on the forefront of their minds, as it turns out there isn't much need for a locksmith on that island!We then hear from an audience member, whose story WILL make you feel old...but don't worry she was old enough to accept the prize for telling her tale.And you can support them on Patreon here: patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 181Lily Phillips' Best of Three
EThis week's episode harks back to when Taylor and Hannah were holding the fort at their London residency as Catie recovered from Covid, but fear not sass-fans, as our very own detective sasshole makes an appearance to help solve a listener crime of Uber proportions in the final part of the pod!Joining Taylor and Hannah on stage though is the brilliant comedian Lily Phillips, whose day of encountering crime in The Big Apple was the true tourist experience the guidebooks don't tell you about. And this week's main crime story is pretty adorable, except if your name happened to be Mary Johnson!And for extra content, ad-free eps and shout-outs, head to their Patreon page: patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 180Drunk Women Solving Richard Herring
EThe Drunk Women have done the unthinkable and invited a guy on the show when it's not even Men's Month, but that's OK because the man is the one and only Richard Herring!This is what happens when two great formats collide, but just HOW does true crime comedy mesh with the unmistakable sound of RHLSTP?

S1 Ep 179Maisie Adam is NOT a catfish
EIn this episode, recorded in front of our wonderful Patreons over zoom, Maisie Adam came prepared with a criminal tale from her school days, which will either make you feel really old, or long to play a game of snake ... or both and our Patreons certainly got an eyeful, when Hannah waggled her old brick at them (see below how to join, so you don't miss out on gold such a this!The team then clock-on for work to solve a crime, which is tragic and illuminating in equal parts, and then, as always, we get to hear from a listener and this time one of the loyal audience members supplied the tawdry tale for the guys to crack and it's safe to say, they had this one in the bag! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

S1 Ep 178DWSC LIVE: With Nat Luurtsema
This episode was recorded at the start of 2022, so fresh into the year in fact, that Hannah broke dry January for it!BUT, it was a bittersweet time, as although the team was thrilled to be back on stage at The Covent Garden Studios with a fantastic crowd, one of the gang had finally succumbed to Covid. Yes, unfortunately, there is around 60% less sass than usual in this episode, as detective Sasshole Catie was locked away in quarantine.At least our fantastic guest comedian and writer, Nat Luurtsema was on-hand not only to relay a most audacious criminal encounter but also to lend some sauce to a meaty case, which made Hannah's mouth water.We also get to hear from an audience member whose story got the crowd 'buzzing' with excitement.AND you can also support their Patreon to have access to extra records, watch episodes recorded over zoom, shout outs and ad-free eps!patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

Feleble Lable... Felippe Lido? However his name is pronounced, it's a ripping yarn!Then before everyone surged the bar, an audience member tells us about a crime which they couldn't possibly have done themselves...they checked!All this AND you'll never think of Guinea Pigs in the same way again!check out their Patreon page for ad-free eps, shout outs, extra records AND the opportunity to watch a record happening over zoom patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 175DWSC LIVE: With Hayley Ellis
Cast your mind back to November 2021.... what were you doing in those halcyon days? Well the Drunk Women tool to the stage at one of their favorite places to do their live shows, at The Salford Lowry, Manchester in front of a 'lively' crowd, who had just taken full advantage of the half-hour interval. Adding to the merrymaking for this night of nights was fantastic comedian, Hayley Ellis who came prepped with a story comprising of nine lives, which is followed by the team digging into a crime which may not even have happened yet. Rounding things off we hear from a member of the audience who should definitely be sent a pair of trainers from Nike... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

S1 Ep 174Parm Sandhu's Detective School
EThis week on Drunk Women Solving Crime, we have someone who is not only an asset to THIS force but has been an asset to the ACTUAL force, serving 30 years in the British Police, becoming the first non-white woman to be promoted through the ranks to chief superintendent.Parm Sandhu has also recently starred in a Channel 4 reality show Murder Island, where she advises real-life amateur detectives to solve a re-enacted murder, so stands to reason that we HAD to have her as an honourary 4th member of DWSC!As you would expect Parm is not faint-hearted in the face of crime and so bravely tells the tale of when she was personally caught up in a local crime wave, before putting her 30 years of experience into a cold case involving gums ... we didn't say it would be easy Parm.AND this week's listener crime will have you thinking twice about dog ownership.And check out their Patreon page here: patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 173Joanne Lau's Most Unusual Father's Day Package
Much like a vintage wine, you have to wait until the best moment to pop its cork, much like this episode, which was recorded during the summer months of 2020 and is now ready to release to the world.Writer Joanne Lau provides a fruity note, with a story that leaves you wondering if the perp had good intentions at heart... otherwise, they are definitely NOT a good egg.The team then cracks into a case which has more twists than a helter-skelter AND a real whirlwind of a listener crime!AND check out the Patreon page for extra content, ad-free eps, and shout-outs!

S1 Ep 172DWSC LIVE: With Ayesha Hazarika
EHELLOOOOO! It's been a minute, but the Drunk Women are back after recharging their livers and drinking their body weight in spinach smoothies, so they can get right on it again, all in the name of entertainment!Having said all that, this episode was actually recorded a few weeks ago, at one of their sell-out residency shows, and joining them in the hijinks is the brilliantly funny comedian and political commentator, Ayesha Hazarika!This show is typical of the anarchic atmosphere of a DWSC residency show and our guest and her crime story is much to blame for that anarchic vibe - most of it made to air... some did not, sometimes you really have to be there!The team then gets their gears into a case involving the mysterious 'Madam X' - listen to find out who SHE is.We then round things off with a listener crime which a bag of missing mini-eggs leaves many questions.It's good to be back!PLUS you can check out their Patreon for ad-free eps, shout-outs and extra content go to patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime - sign-up before 10th February and you'll be able to watch a record take place with the brilliant Maisie Adam from the comfort of your own home, at no extra cost.

S1 Ep 171DRUNK WOMEN LIVE: With Eleanor Morton
EIt's the final episode of 2021 and what better way to being some festive cheer to proceedings than recording in front of a packed out crowd AND inviting the hilarious comedian Eleanor Morton along as special guest?!Yes, even though this happened to be recorded at Christmas, like a bottle of Baileys, it can be enjoyed any time of the year and if you celebrate Yuletide or not.It's always the season to listen to Eleanor share a tale in which a combination of naivety and creepiness are both at play and to hear a story which originates in the mountains of North Carolina ...which either is or isn't classed as an Appalachian ... perhaps the fact we don't know is an abomination.... what isn't an abomination though is this week's audience crime, but in fact a load of pants...And check out their Patreon for extra content, videos, invited to watch remote records, from the comfort of your own home, shout-outs and SO much more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

S1 Ep 170DRUNK WOMEN LIVE: With Felicity Ward
The Drunk Women are here again and this episode is hot off the press of their double show at The Leicester Square theatre only last week (at the time of release - obvs). As this was recorded at the start of December, the vibe is very much that of an office Christmas party, mainly because of Hannah's outfit. Someone who didn't get the Christmas memo though was the first guest of the evening, the wonderful comedian, writer, and actor, Felicity Ward!Felicity's outfit AND crime take us back to beachside Australia of the 1990s - a welcome break for us all before our main case brings on the debate of when the Bikini was invented** and this week's audience crime will have us all wondering if the perp had a gun in his pocket, or was he just pleased to see her?Check out the DWSC Patreon for extra content, ad-free eps, videos, and more! patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime**FYI, the heckler was WRONG... they did exist as a two-piece in the 1930s, but they weren't referred to as Bikinis until 1946 when the name was used to commemorate the nuclear tests carried out on the Pacific island of Bikini Atoll.

S1 Ep 169DRUNK WOMEN LIVE: With Luisa Omielan
EIt's been a long time coming, but the Drunk Women finally made it back to Manchester for another fantastic live show at The Salford Lowry!The crowd obviously missed Taylor, Catie, and Hannah as much as our drunk detectives missed them, and bringing her own brand of cheer was this week's wonderful guest, comedian Luisa Omelian!Luisa started things off with a crime in which several suspects are up for discussion - but is the real crime the cost of a beef fillet?As the gang hasn't seen their Manchester friends in a while, it seemed only right that this week's crime should have something of a local flavor... although it's probably not something that great city should only be known for!And to finish things off, this week's listener crime is brought to us by not one, but TWO members of the audience - it's a doubleheader ladies and gentlemen!Join Taylor, Hannah and Catie on their Patreon page, for the chance to watch along to remote records, extra content, shout outs and much more! patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

S1 Ep 168DWSC LIVE: With Jocelyn Jee Esien
EPinch, punch for the first of the month, this episode was released on 1st December 2020, which means just like that, Men's Month is over for another year and we welcome back the all-female line-up, with a woman who was pursued so much to appear on the show, that she could have used that as her opening crime, it's the fabulous comedian Jocelyn Jee Esien - AKA Little Miss Jocelyn!As well as wowing the live audience with some epic gymnastics she also started off proceedings with a crime that could have only happened in the early 2000s.The team then gets into a case that involves some of the worst children's names in the book and this week's audience crime had our guest believing in witchcraft!Check out their Patreon page for shout-outs, as free eps and extra content, including the chance to watch a record from the comfort of your own home, over Zoom on 2nd December 2020 - patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 167MEN'S MONTH LIVE: With Ed Gamble
EIt's the FINAL men's month episode of 2021, and taking us out with a bang is the fantastic Ed Gamble, who wowed the crowd on stage at the sold-out DWSC residency at The Museum of Comedy!Ed starts us off with a crime story that leaves you wondering how many teenaged boys have citrus fruit in their pockets and then sparks a competition for tales of middle-class injuries.The team then roll out the barrel for the main story of the episode and you WILL have a barrel of fun and finally, this week's audience member provides a crime mystery which is basically just some EXCELLENT gossip about someone in her friendship circle ... we won't tell a soul, promise.AND check out their Patreon page for extra content and the opportunity to WATCH a zoom record happening LIVE on 2nd Dec 2021 patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 166MEN'S MONTH: With Nick Mohammed
EAt the time of release, it's the 3rd Wednesday in November, which means Taylor, Catie, and Hannah welcome the 3rd (and penultimate) man for Men's Month 2021 and it's only the wonderful actor and comedian, Nick Mohammed, who recorded this whilst filming in New Mexico no less!Nick starts us off with a trio of crimes that he has fallen victim to, one of which proves the grass really isn't greener on the other side.The team then gets their heads around a crime that throws up important questions like, how micro is microfilm? Are paper boys over 18? And was this week's listener crime actually solved? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

S1 Ep 165MEN'S MONTH: With Al Murray
EThe DWSC Men's Month continues in style, as the ladies welcome a comedian whose character The Pub Landlord wouldn't approve of their drunken antics, but luckily, Al Murray is here as himself and is fully immersed in the fun and hijinx!Al starts us off with a crime story with some high and mighty perpetrators and the team then gets into a case that is audacious in many ways, as well as having a pretty impressive celebrity connection!And this week's listener crime gets solved at lightning speed ... although perhaps not in a helpful way.PLUS, check out their Patreon for extra content and lots more -patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

S1 Ep 164MEN'S MONTH LIVE: With Kiell Smith Bynoe
It's November, which can only mean one thing... nope, not Guy Fawks night... Thanks Giving? More like No Thanks (Giving), because at Drunk Women Towers the only thing the team will celebrate for four weeks straight is International Men's Day on 19th November, which means it raining MEN all month long!Men's Month 2021 is a particularly special affair, as at least one of our guests has been recorded at a live show and this fantastic episode welcomes actor Kiell Smith Bynoe as our very first audience-friendly guy - it's the role of his life and he embraced it as tightly as the bottle of tequila he brought to the stage.Kiell kicks-off the show with a story that will invoke nostalgia for your first mobile phone, whilst also making you wonder why he went to school with people who had names like Brian and Leslie.The team then collectively crushes a case that could very much be described as bad cop / worst cop and then we hear from a member of the audience whose crime to solve is worthy of Toy Story.VOTE for DWSC in the National Comedy Awards!

S1 Ep 163 Feeling 'Seen' with Sarah Mills
Joining the Drunk Women hijinx this week is a last whose personal crime story is either a tale of dole queue drudgery or one of validation (we'll let you decide), it's writer and comedian, Sarah Mills!Sarah's show opener is a story of first and grit, which can also be said of the woman featured in this week's true crime case - it'll probably have you rushing out to get a cat AND make you want to put the heating on full pelt - did you know pelt can mean an animal skin, as well as in the context of putting the heating on full? That knowledge will stand you in good stead for this week's ep, so you're welcome!As always we hear from a listener to round off the show and today is no different, although there were a few shocks to uncover in this person's family tree .... WHAAAT?!AND, check out their Patreon page for extra content - patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

S1 Ep 162Izzy Mant's Indecent Proposal
The Drunk Women are here again and joining them to solve a case whilst imbibing a G&T is comedian and writer, Izzy Mant! Izzy starts us off with a story that heralds from a night out at one of the second-best venues in a UK seaside town.The team then pulls apart a crime-ridden tale that is reminiscent of a past case ... perhaps it's a coincidence, or maybe it's the work of an incompetent copycat? We then hear from a listener who wants to end the speculation of a series of events - period!AND support them on Patreon www.patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 161DWSC LIVE with Mary O'Connell
EThis week's episode is another riotous recording at the DWSC London residency at The Museum of Comedy! Joining Taylor, Catie and Hannah is the brilliant comedian Mary O'Connell who sets the crime-solving scene with a story of under 18s raving which will melt the coldest heart. We then dive into a true crime that starts off debating the role and efficiency of using a muff... much to everyone's delight. We then hear from an audience member who has been stewing on a wrongdoing for 25 years until she finally gets the closure she deserves.For all the extras on Patreon go to - patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

S1 Ep 160DWSC LIVE: With Grace Campbell
Well, what a night this was! Hannah, Catie, and Taylor burst onto the stage during London's Underbelly Festival for a night of drunk-solving mayhem in front of 300 fabulous fans AND had a very special guest in comedian and writer, Grace Campbell!Grace starts us off with a crime that could be considered more a crime against sex than anything else and the tone is then set when the team (and audience) dig into a case in which the word 'cream' is definitely overused. We then round things off with a very eager audience member, who desperately needed the help of our amateur sleuths and by jove, I think they solved it ... or at least didn't make things worse!Join the DWSC Patreon at patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

S1 Ep 159Good Heavens, It's Susie Dent!
EThe 'countdown' is almost over, as the DWSC team finally welcomes etymologist and star of one of the UK's longest-running shows 'Countdown' (you can see the brilliant gag we made there) and its comedy, sister show, 'Cats Does Countdown', it is, of course, the one and only, Susie Dent!As well as giving us some pretty cool word origins, Susie also proved to be a pretty savvy crime solver and hits the nail on the head several times in this episode's stratospheric case, as well as starting us off with a crime that also has more than a hint of nostalgia attached. The team then debates a listener story which could also have the hallmarks of a more innocent time ... or something far more sinister might have been at play.

S1 Ep 158Dinner In The Clink, With Hannah Cunningham
EMuch fun was had in the making of this episode and a big part of that was this week's crime-solving guest, make-up artist, TV presenter, and star of BBC's Glow-Up, it's Hannah Cunningham AKA Empty Alien, or 'cool' Hannah as she shall now be known, although nothing was cool about the crime she shares at the start of the show, thanks to the creepy man in slacks. The team then digs deep into a historical crime, which could almost be referred to as highbrow, especially after Taylor displays a latent talent, which although has no use at all, is impressive, to say the least! We then of course hear from a listener who needs our help in getting to the bottom of a most puzzling display of road rage. Come and see the Drunk Women LIVE during 2021. Their London residency continues at The Museum of Comedy on 28th Sept, 28th Oct, and 23rd Nov - for tickets and info go to museumofcomedy.comThey will also be at The Leicester Square Theatre on 7th December: leicestersquaretheatre.comAND in Manchester at the Salford Lowry on 28th November - thelowry.com Hosted on Acast.

EThe Drunk Women are live again at The Museum of Comedy in London and as well as being joined by an audience of amateur detectives, they also brought comedian Ania Magliano along for the ride, who as it turns out wasn't too shabby as crime-solving herself!Ania, tells us about the time is desperately wanted in on a crime wave in her school and then the team pulls apart a story from the 16th Century which details are grainy, to say the least! We then hear from a member of the wonderful audience, who uses the opportunity to clear her name ... or maybe she just WANTS us to think she's innocent? You decide...Come and see the DWSC LIVE at The Underbelly on Friday 17th Sept 2021 and at The Museum of Comedy on 28th October and 23rd November 2021.

EIn this riotous episode, we see Taylor, Hannah, and Catie back in front of an audience at The Museum of Comedy in London, where comedian Janine Harouni joined them for gin and tonics a-plenty with some pretty adept crime-solving chops!Janine starts things off by teaching us that ordering French onion soup on a blind date is something we should NEVER do. The team (and the audience) then pick-apart a gem of a case, which introduces us to some pretty elaborate characters. And finally, it's the turn of a member of the audience to present their case and to be honest, you'll NEVER hear of a crime more quintessentially English than this... Hosted on Acast.
