Drunk Women Solving Crime

Thank goodness for Wednesdays, as that means our favorite crime-solving sleuths drop into our podcast feeds bringing with them another recruit to the force, this week it's singer, songwriter Grace Petrie! Grace starts off proceedings with some stories that prove her credentials as a reluctant crime fighter after police seemingly mistake her as a law enforcer in her own right. We then get to hear about a prolific criminal who in their own way just wanted to make the world a better place ... could this be the most adorable villain ever? And this week's listener crime is an education for all of us and only goes to prove, that teachers are sometimes a law onto themselves. And for extra content, videos and shoutouts, head to patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to another episode of Drunk Women Solving Crime, where this week comedian Sajeela Kershi recounts just a run-of-the-mill crime that she found herself caught up in, it's hardly a story .... JOKING!! Sajeela's story is the absolute epitome of drama! It's the stuff of films and we are SO lucky to have her on the show to share it with us. Once you've caught your breath from that, we then hear about a story that is the acid test of our detective's abilities. We then hear from a listener who needs some clarification of a mugger's intentions.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Drunk Women welcome another note-taker to the force this week in the form of writer, comedian, and actor, Isy Suttie! Isy starts things off with a harrowing tale, which only goes to prove that you can't even trust a virgin - something Madonna should have warned us of in that song. The team then put their heads together to crack a case that throws up subjects from HG Wells NOT being the inventor of science fiction and if Woody Woodpecker was ever President of the United States. This week's listener crime is a whodunnit, which has an epic cast of suspects and in this week's Patreon shout-outs, Taylor rectifies a crime perpetrated against our very own members, to cinematic effect. Check out the DWSC Patreon page at patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

The Drunk Women are here again and joining them this week is writer and podcaster, Rachel Creeger!Rachel starts things off with a story of fraudulent doings, which were perpetrated by a criminal so inept, they didn't even bother with a cursory google!We then have a smorgasbord of true crime delicacies served up by Hannah, including a tale of workhouse woe, a lesson in piracy protocol and finally, find out how to pronounce depot. We also get a visit to a spoken word club in this week's patron shout outs and finally, the team helps a listener get to the bottom of a mucky misdemeanor. For Patreon, visit patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

This week's episode sees Taylor, Hannah and Catie welcome a guest, who has been on the force since the very start, it's comedian and honorary Drunk Woman, Vix Leyton! Vix gets us going with a couple of tales that every female who happens to be listening will be all too familiar with, plus we hear about what has to be the WORST opening line to a date EVER. We are then taken on a gripping journey of a crime, which although seems to happen mostly in the pub, also has to be the very epitome of the term cliff-hanger.The listener crime then takes us to Canada to help find a missing phone. The Drunk Women are on the verge of a VERY exciting announcement, so keep watching this space - but if you want to know what all the excitement is before the rest of the world, then sign-up to their Patreon page patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime - where you can sign-up for extra content, videos, and shout-outs!  Hosted on Acast.

The gang are here again and delighted to be joined by the wonderful entrepreneur and first-class detective, Caroline Newte Hardie who brings with her more than one tale of woe of public transport shenanigans - one of them (almost ) directly connected to Taylor, Catie, and Hannah .... but what can it be? We then hear about a case that sounds similar to how politicians seem to be behaving today and get a very meditative Patreon shout-out courtesy of Taylor(get your own shout-out by heading to patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime). And as always, the team solve a crime sent in from a listener and the verdict this week is pretty unanimous!  Hosted on Acast.

In this week's episode of Drunk Women Solving Crime, Hannah, Catie, and Taylor are delighted to welcome to the force a lady who can sniff out a criminal and solve a case even if she's stuck on the other side of a locked door, it's actor and presenter, Alexis Strum!Alexis opens the show with a bizarre tale that will have you taking notes on how such a situation should be dealt with. The team then discusses a case which could lead to the finding out that John Lennon and Paul McCartney were part of an audacious plot ....or it could just be two other fellas called John and Paul. And then, as always, we hear from a listener who has a crime itch that needs scratching, and this week, it looks like they actually get the mystery solved for them!If you want your name 'shouted-out' by Taylor in her own unique way, or fancy some extra content, then head over to the DWSC Patreon page and see what's on offer: patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

This week, the Drunk Women are joined by Rubina Pabani, mild-mannered podcaster, and producer by day, but by night (or mid-afternoon actually), fearsome prospect for any prospective criminal, especially if her uncle also happens to be in the neighbourhood! As you'll hear Rubina is more than qualified to join the force and brings her understanding of the criminal mind to a case in which the team dissects with medical precision, leaving no organ unturned. Our esteemed guest then covers herself in even more glory, when she can bring yet another real-life experience to help our listener get to the bottom of a wrongdoing which would make anyone grind their teeth.  Check out the DWSC Patreon page, for extra content, videos, ad-free episodes, and MORE - patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

It's all hands on deck this week, as comedian and podcaster, Sally-Anne Hayward joins the elite force of note-takers, and provides some dazzling insights about the logistics around imposter syndrome, we also hear about the time she felt judged by a thief and what the world was like before suitcases were mounted on wheels (grim). The gang then get together to dissect a crime which is possibly a more elaborate way of saying 'the dog ate my homework'. Check out the DWSC Patreon page for shout outs, extra content, videos, and MORE: patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week the Drunk Women welcomes writer and founder of the Vagina Museum, Florence Schechter to the force. Florence starts things off with a story that will warm your crime-hardened heart, as well as proving that politeness in heroism goes a long way to impress one's dad. The team then explores the life and times of someone Florence has loved for a long time and who the rest of will now be obsessed with (and rightly so), whilst marveling at how the crimes featured in their life still echo in the lives of women today. We then hear from a listener, who has beef with a helicopter - which we find out are just massive insects at the end of the day. Check out the DWSC Patreon page for extra content, shout-outs, ad-free episodes, videos, and more!  Hosted on Acast.

The Drunk Women are sorry to say that today's episode is incomplete and only thirteen and a half minutes long. Taylor, Catie, and Hannah wish to apologise for any inconvenience caused. ...APRIL FOOL** if anything this episode is slightly longer than the others, but as it was recorded on April Fools Day, the ladies are doing something a little different and presenting a string of cases in which 'pranks' have had some disastrous results.And joining them this week is the fantastic presenter and Great British Bake-Off Semi-Finalist, Briony May Williams! Briony starts things off by telling us about the time she fell victim to opportunist crime, in which you could argue that the perpetrator was just indulging in some carpe diem and she also enlightens us as to why our American listeners will know 'Bake-Off' as the 'The Great British Cooking Show'! After all that, we hear from a listener who with Catie has a lot in common....Elvis has left the butter out. ** We acknowledge that the joke is now on us. Take a look at the DWSC Patreon page, for videos, extra content, and ad-free episodes: patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

The Drunk Women are back at The Clapham Grand and it's a two for the price of one on this week's guest count!Yes, the team headed to that fantastic venue to record a special show with the wonderful Shazia Mirza - who had some obstacles to overcome on the journey and so, whilst we waited with bated breath for her arrival, Taylor, Hannah, and Catie were joined by former guest and friend of the show, Jayde Adams, who regaled us with yet another crime which has blighted her life! Jayde very kindly kicks things off with a story that will make sure no one EVER gives shade to any member of One Direction again and although it was wonderful to see her, Jayde then made way for Shazia, who came straight on stage following her epic journey. The gang then go through a historical misdemeanor, which will make you grateful you were born in the age of plastic, rather than tin...ouch!The Drunk Women would like to say a HUGE thank you to Jayde for coming to the rescue and to Shazia for battling her way to the theatre, against all odds. The streamed video of this show will be available to patreons, as well as other videos, extra content, and shout-outs - take a look at patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrimefor more info.  Hosted on Acast.

The Drunk Women are, here again, providing an essential service to us all - solving the crimes of guest, listener, and history. Joining them today is the fantastic comedian, writer & podcaster, Rosie Wilby!Rosie tells us about a crime in which you can't help but think that the perpetrator was doing her a favour! We then all get our head into a tale of criminal woe resulting in a pretty awesome tourist attraction, which would be ideal to visit on roller skates... and then the gang helps a listener get to the bottom of a criminal act and debate the existence of a Hilton Hotel in Croydon.Check out the DWSC Patreon page - got to patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime for extra content, videos and lock-ins with Taylor, Catie & Hannah  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In perhaps the longest anticipated guest in Drunk Women history, the gang was delighted to be in the company of presenter, Kate Thornton, after two previous near misses! As the saying goes 'third time lucky' and this is most definitely the case, as Kate not only brings a crime story, which is up there as one of the most unbelievable tales we've heard to date but also joins the elite force of the note-takers. We then hear about the life of a true legend, who had to endure more true crime than most of us would be able to take. As always a lovely listener rounds things off for us with their own story of crime victimhood - but perhaps in this week's case, they were more involved than they were letting on? Go to the DWSC Patreon page for videos, extra UNEDITED content, shout-outs, and MORE! patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Drunk Women were filled with glee when the brilliant comedian Sara Pascoe agreed to join the force and proved to be in the elite group of those who make notes, this lady means business.Sara starts things off with a personal story that proves you should never trust a man called 'Kavin' and that no crime is worth ruining a holiday for. The gang then makes us all an offer we can't refuse by letting us all play along and solve a case which should be a film script...but not one Sara would watch. And then, as always we hear from a listener, who gets some tough love from the newly ordained Detective Pascoe. Check out the DWSC Patreon page for extra content, ad-free episodes, AND a complete video of this very episode! Yes you can watch the UNEDITED record of this very special episode with Sara, just go to patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Drunk Women are, here again, swigging and solving till there's nothing left to swig or solve... this week they are joined by journalist and writer, Emma Burnell! Emma stars us off by talking about a crime that has many possible culprits, but is the family dog REALLY in the clear? And what should be done about the neighborhood cat burglar? The gang then gets involved with a crime that is as audacious as they come and then rounds everything off with some much-needed atonement from one lucky listener. Check out the DWSC Patreon page for ad-free episodes, extra content, and videos - just head to patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of DWSC, the gang is joined by brilliant comedian and ventriloquist, Nina Conti!Nina gets the ball rolling with some tales from her own life, which prove she has been 'saddled' with more than enough true crime already! She then helps the others crack a rather dark case which ended-up shaping the way the law is enforced forever. As always, we have a listener crime to solve at the end, but there's some speculation that there has been some embellishment on the story through the years...you decide! You can also check out the DWSC Patreon page for extra content, videos, and ad-free episodes, just visit - patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

Hot-off the press of their socially distanced live stream, The Drunk Women present the very episode recorded just a few days hence at The Clapham Grand. If you didn't watch the show, then you'll now hear why this week's guest, Helen Bauer is actually fairly grateful to whoever may have stolen her camera.Helen then ably assists Hannah and Catie get to the bottom of a case presented by Taylor, which makes us all question if being called sleeping beauty is a good thing; we then as always, round things off with a listener crime, which Helen pretty much solves in less than 5mins ... someone give that last her own crime-fighting series. Whilst you're here, why not check-out the DWSC Patreon page, for extra content, ad-free episodes, and videos, just head to:patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

In this week's episode, the Drunk Women welcome actor, writer, and comedian Annie McGrath to the force, who brings more than a hint of showbiz glitz to proceedings when she recounts a crime that would be award-winning if such a ceremony existed.The crew then showcases some top-class crime-solving talents, which draws some pretty clear parallels with this week's main case, which is one of presidential proportions.We then hear from a listener who you could say really makes lemonade out of those life lemons. You can also check out their Patreon page for ad-free episodes, videos, and extra content - patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

Titley, who takes us on a journey to Funderland when she divulges the details of a criminal act.The team then cracks into a case that surely proves the existence of time travel once and for all and then we hear from a listener whose crime snowballs into a series of wrongs that will have you incredulous in sympathy. check out their patreon at patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

WARNING: This episode, thanks to Catie, is loaded with sass! Luckily, this week's guest, comedian Catherine Bohart is more than a match for anyone in the sassy stakes, although the crime she shares with us at the start doesn't find her at peak sass, but then everyone deserves a day off.The gang then gets to the bottom of a case which gives debate to all the big questions...such as if Margret Thatcher really did like a game of ibble-dibble?And finally, this week's listener managed to solve their own crime but takes us that journey - although Catherine still has some questions...And you can sign-up to the DWSC Patreon for extra content, videos, and ad-free episodes at www.patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to another episode of Drunk Women Solving Crime, where the wonders of technology allow us to connect with Canadian-based comedian, Erika Ehler! Although Erika usually resides in the UK, lockdown has seen her back with her parents in Toronto, but luckily the time difference didn't stop her from cracking open a can and cracking some key details in a case where a whole village feels the effects of wrongdoing, with some living in fear as a result. But, before that Erika recounts an incident that taught her an early lesson about the realities of human nature. The team then hears from a listener who has clearly landed on her feet!Check out the DWSC Patreon for extra content, videos and ad free episodes !

It's time for another dose of Drunk Women and this week comedian, Juliet Meyers -with trusty sidekick Homer (the worlds best dog detective) - joins Taylor, Catie and Hannah to sleuth their way through this week's crime, which is set in NEBRASKA of all places, plus there's a connection to a crime featured in a past episode.Juliet starts proceedings with sharing some past criminal activities, which could very well be down to needing a few more Spanish lessons .. although that's doubtful.We then round things-off with a listener crime against a mum's cardigan!DWSC have a Patreon page, with videos and extra content, as well as ad free episodes, take a look here:- patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to another episode of Drunk Women Solving Crime, which finds our hosts in fine fettle and ready to do their duty to podcasting, by grabbing a glass-full and solving a crime, or three.Joining them in this public service is comedian, actor, writer & cheese enthusiast, Pippa Evans!Pippa gets the ball (Edam) rolling by presenting a great wrongdoing, which occurred in her very own home, by someone who should frankly know better.The team then put their heads-together to wring-out the details of a swathe of crimes perpetrated in ignorance ...along the way, Hannah get's an education in what she can and can't use her finger to do - we hope you find it useful too.Find out what Hannah, Catie and Taylor got-up to after this episode was recorded by joining their Patreon and listening to their 'lock-ins'.

This episode of DWSC is the second live stream show the team took to the glorious Clapham Grand in London in December 2020.Although there was no live audience, hundreds of fans joined them on the live stream to watch the action take place - and it's not too late for you to do the same, as the video is now available on the DWSC Patreon, just go to: patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime to see Hannah, Taylor and Catie in all their glory - alongside special guest, actor and comedian, Michelle De Swarte.Michelle recounts a crime in which the perpetrator saw more than Michelle's soul, the gang then grab another bottle each to get to the nub of a story involving a chancer of epic proportions, and finally we hear from a listener who is still smarting from a false accusation levelled at her during her school days .... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Just before Christmas 2020, Taylor, Hannah & Catie got all dressed-up and had somewhere to go! Yes, the team headed to the (beautiful) Clapham Grand theatre in London to do one of their amazing sell-out live shows ... unfortunately at the last minute it was apparent that this would not be able to take place - but the show MUST go on and so it did in the form of a glorious live stream!Yes, The Drunk Women were delighted to still be able to go ahead with the show and that so many people turned-up in their comfy clothes, glass in hand to watch the proceedings from their sofas.If you missed-out, then never fear the video is now available on their Patreon - patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime.As the team were 'back in the room', this also meant that we were treated to a live guest in the form of comedian, Amy Gledhill.Amy leads us in to the episode with a crime which will have us all suspiciously checking feet from now on - which will probably be easier to do in the summer months.The group then ponder on a 600 year old tale which sees ol' King James I rear his angry head once more. After that, we hear from a listener whose superior music taste marks her out for mixtape theft...it's a heady mix of pre-Christmas cheer and alcohol... ENJOY. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Drunk Women are BACK for a brand new year and if you're attempting dry January (this is released January 2021, so unlikely too many of you are), then live your drinking life vicariously through Hannah, Taylor, Catie and this week's guest Laura Hayden, who happens to host a drinking based podcast of her own called 'Whisky Women', which means she's more than qualified to join-in with the wine fuelled mayhem!Laura has a crime at the ready to kick things off where we learn that dogs can be just as objectified for their looks as humans are - and will never let you look at Brad Pitt in the same way again!The gang then charge their glasses to get to the nub of an historical crime which is interspersed with some excellent A-Lister gossip courtesy of our guest.We then hear from a listener who wrote in with a crime which is either the result of a genuine mistake, or the world's most audacious two year old.... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Christmas is going to be a little different for us all this year, but there's one thing we can all rely on - some festive cheer from our favourite true-crime tipplers!Taylor, Hannah and Catie took some time before their live stream show at The Clapham Grand in mid December 2020 to record this Christmas message - which let's face is guaranteed a few more laughs than The Queen's speech will have - no disrespect to Her Majesty, who would be a very welcome guest on the show....But whilst we wait for QE2's reply, you can hear what happened with live stream guests Amy Gledhill and Michelle De Swarte when those episodes are released in January 2021 - and you'll also be able to SEE them as both shows will be available on patreon/drunkwomensolvingcrime ahead of the episodes releases. Thank you so much for listening and supporting the show this year, you've made it more bearable for us, we love hearing from you so please keep getting in touch onTwitter: @drunkwomenpod / Insta: drunkwomensolvingcrime and on email: [email protected]'ll be back on January 13th 2021, so until then MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR From everyone at DRUNK WOMEN SOLVING CRIME! XX Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

When it comes to drunken, true-crime solving, you can't keep a good woman down - something we already knew in regards to hosts, Catie, Hannah and Taylor, but we also now know to be true of comedian Sarah Barron, who agreed to join-in with the semi-sloshed sleuthing for today's episode. Sara started-off with a warning for any new parents, that the sheer exhaustion of a new baby can invite crime into your life (that and having a word doc named 'passwords' on the desktop of your laptop). The crew then bit-down into a case in which the perpetrator's life path had also seemingly pushed them into a slipstream of criminal activity, which was so out of character, it's difficult not to have some degree of empathy - especially if you're a a fan of dogs!The ladies then give some closure to a listener who cannot be sure if they've been the victim of a crime ...spoiler alert, they probably were.Don't forget to send your crimes that need solving to The Drunk Women ...they certainly won't make it worse: [email protected] have a look at their Patreon page for videos, extra content with guests, ad free episodes AND the DWSC lock-in! patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode of Drunk Women Solving Crime, the wine flowed freely as the team welcomed writer, actor and producer Natasha Vasandani to the force and let their little grey cells run all-over a case which just goes to prove that not every granny likes to knit for a hobby!Natasha kicks the whole thing off as she seeks closure for a wrongdoing at primary school (which depressingly wasn't all that long ago) and also highlights that some words will have a VERY different meaning on either side of the pond, potentially leading to hilarious consequences.We also hear that Hannah (AKA detective Buttstuff) finds a familial connection to The Titanic (sort of) and this week's listener crime makes a mug of us all.AND you can also find extra content galore at their patron page - just visit patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

And the girls are back in town! As we reach into December 2020, the Drunk Women once again welcome back the regular all female line-up and joining them to solve some crime and get tipsy is actor Kellie Shirley, who starts-off by giving us all a cautionary tale of trying too hard to impress a prospective love interest.The team then pour a large one before poring over a case which although had the doctors of the time perplexed, is one our gals can see straight through - some pretty impressive (and drunk) detective work in play here.We then round-things-off with a listener crime which will leave you feline good. To help support Kellie's campaign with the Anthony Nolan Trust, visit anthonynolan.org.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As this year's 'Men's Month' draws to a close, who better to usher it out than the fantastic comedian, presenter and trainer enthusiast; Romesh Ranganathan!Romesh brings with him a tale of a crime which has probably marred what should be a pretty great memory, but at least he can take comfort in his enviable sartorial style ... probably.The team then get their bottle caps off, whilst putting their thinking caps on to try and get to the bottom of a case with more than a few twists (of lime), whilst assessing just how gullible they would be if they found themselves in the same situation as this week's perps (ans: just as gullible).And as usual we hear from a listener who is in need of our crack team's investigative skills - this week we get some great advice on how to deal with shop-based trouble makers in pretty convincing role-play.Thanks so much to all the guys who have guested on Men's Month 2020, it's been a blast and look forward to welcome four more dudes to the force in 2021.AND check-out the extras available on their Patreon page - including uncensored extra material: Patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's the penultimate episode of Men's Month 2020, so Catie, Hannah and Taylor decided the time had come to unleash the super-sleuthing skills of the one and only, comedian, writer and podcast king - Mr Adam Buxton!If you're in need of some fun and frivolity (and let's face it, you probably are), then look no further than this episode, which features stories from some of Adam's many bike related crime stories, which may (or may not) involve Mark Zukerberg and a listener's fridge based mystery - which Adam solves in just two words - he really is an asset to the force.Our crime busting boozers, also dive into a story, which takes us into the world of art and involves perhaps one of the worst attempts at a criminal disguise - which wouldn't look out of place in an Inspector Clouseau film - and also depicts probably one of the unluckiest first days in a job ever!AND check-out DWSC's brand new Patreon page, where you can find extra content, videos, ad free eps and more : patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As Men's Month continues through lockdown part 2 - what better way to spend it than in the company of comedian, presenter and author, Tom Allen! The team welcome Tom with open arms and provide some much needed trauma counselling for a wrong he has lived with since his school days - if the perpetrator happens to be listening to this episode, they will surely feel thoroughly ashamed of themselves! We then hear about a case in which it's more likely you'll know the musical it's based on, rather than the story itself, so listen to this and amaze your friends with some very strong quiz worthy facts. We then, as always, get to solve a listener crime, which this week, features a lady who has shutters on her windows - which shows that our audience must be of the highest calibre! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This bonus 'minisode' contains some important information for those of you who want...no... NEED more Hannah, Taylor and Catie in their lives - and let's face it - that's probably most of you!

At the time of release for this episode, it's November 2020, which can only mean one thing ... THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN!Yes, Hannah, Taylor & Catie decided to give the men of the comedy world a well-earned leg-up, by allowing four of them on the show throughout the month - in honour of International Men's Day on November 19th. And to kick things off for us this year is the fantastic Nish Kumar, whose enthusiasm for solving crime is as infectious as his laugh.Nish and the gang immerse themselves into a story which has some rather unexpected plot twists, as well as an accidental key player in canine form. Before that, Nish begins the show with a tale which either shows his heroics, or that his mum is utterly terrifying...probably a bit of both. To round things off, we hear from a listener, whose crime probably shouldn't be listened to whilst eating, and just goes to prove - you can't polish a turd.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Drunk Women are here again, bringing you another night-out in your ears, with the help of screen writer, Lisa Holdsworth.It would appear that the burglars in Lisa's neighbourhood treat robbing her as an annual event - although it's not without some help from Lisa herself.The group then put their heads together to join-up the dots in a case which, despite being steeped in prejudice of the worst kind, would surely make an Oscar winning film.Then, cherished listener Lisa provides a crime which took it's time to be solved - you'll understand what we mean by that by listening!

The women are drunk, there's an historical true crime that needs solving and for the 112th time, the two things are in the same place, at the same time - yes, our sozzled detectives are back and joining them with her own special brand of sleuthing smarts, is author, comedian and soon to be pop sensation, Ariane Sherine!Ariane starts off proceedings by recounting a crime, which could have lead to life-long happiness, but instead just gave some intel into how some law enforcers behaviour is less than exemplary. We then hear about a case from history, which may have stumped the male elite of the day, but proves no match for four tipsy women...just how stressful IS a picnic to plan?And then, we hear from a listener who needs some light-shedding on a harrowing time - of which the crime was just a tiny part.After hearing this, you'll go straight out and get your own 'anxiety chocolate'.

Today’s episode of DWSC welcomes comedian and poet Sarah Callaghan to the force, who brought with her a tale of criminal woe which was triggering for The Drunk Women, as it would appear that old people aren’t always as sweet as they may appear.Our super-sleuths then learn about a particularly strange trend in law enforcement which causes Catie to reach the top tier of incredulity and quite rightly so!This week’s listener crime is a cautionary tale which many people during lockdown would have unfortunately been victim to. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Drunk Women are back, helping to make your Wednesdays go with a bang and today bringing some explosive energy of her own is comedian, actor & podcaster, Samantha Baines!Our guest detective gets things going by recounting the many times she's been the victim of a crime - one of them at the hands of her own mother, the evidence of which will still exist.The team then pool their resources to solve a case which although gruesome, fascinatingly changed the way murders were tried forever as well as being a trailblazer in the use of forensic evidence.Then as always, we hear from one of our amazing listeners who presents a wrongdoing in their lives for the team to crack and by-jove I think they did. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this week's edition of DWSC Taylor displays some enviably relaxed hosting skills, whilst presenting a fascinating case which 'poses' countless questions, as well as making us realise that behind every nude statue is a great woman.The gang are also joined by the awesome podcaster, animator and very able detective, Poppy Hillstead, who tells us about the time she was present for the kind of crime that, although baffling to comprehend, can only be witnessed by someone who has made the leap to the big city - Carrie Bradshaw would be green with envy.The whole team then solve a riddle posed by cherished listener Vanessa, who certainly gave the those little grey cells a work-out!

Just like moths to a flame, you can’t keep the Drunk Women away from a bottle of fizz, or a crime that needs solving, and joining them to bump their head into that beautiful light, is comedian, podcaster and absolute trooper, Sarah Keyworth.Things get-off to a showbizzy start, when Sarah recounts a crime which *could* have been the result of mistaken identity, or due to Mariah Carey living a far more unassuming life than we give her credit for.The gang then hunker-down to a case which I think we can all agree will make us eternally grateful for modern medicine…when was the last time a physician stuck their finger in your ear by way of diagnosis? We’re guessing never. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's time for another hit of drunken true crime solving, and joining in the pie-eyed sleuthing this week is podcaster, journalist & presenter Jackie Adedeji!Before digging into this week's case, Jackie reveals that thanks to a momentary lapse in concentration, someone out there could be running around with her identity! But as this episode proves, there is only ONE Jackie Adedeji with the detective skills to navigate the twists and turns of a complicated heist...and decide which kind of food / drink combo goes best with such an occasion.We then get to hear about a listener crime which has SO many layers it could be the basis of an Agatha Christie novel .... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Drunk Women are back with another set of mysterious circumstances to sift through, this week they are aided and abetted by the hilarious comedian and writer Joanne McNally.Joanne reaccounts a crime which will chime with many of your lock-down experiences and is also a lesson in reading the reviews ... if only for comedy value. The gang then circumnavigate their way through the twists and turns of a confidence trickster - who obviously had the stuff in abundance! Then, we hear from a listener, who perhaps just needs their sense of direction testing, rather than a crime solving?  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Drunk Women are here again, solving crime and drinking wine so you don't have to ... although who wouldn't want to do those things?Well, this week's guest Athena Kugblenu was certainly keen to get involved and crack a case which is a joy-ride from start-to-finish, and comes courtesy of cherished listeners Becky and Tom in Paris. Athena herself has an interesting crime theme running through her life, which you could argue is somewhat self inflicted - although also a good argument for avoiding the gym, if you didn't need one already. And, as ever we round things-off nicely with a crime sent in by a listener, which is the epitome of a frosty reception.  Hosted on Acast.

This week's episode was recorded during a heatwave in the UK (for those of you overseas, yes they DO sometimes occur), so the crime isn't the only cold case the gang crack open for our listening pleasure. Although this week's guest detective, writer Christina Martin, snubbed a cold beer from the fridge in favour of a beverage which couldn't be less suited to sticky temperatures - how did that work out? You'll have to listen to find out.Christina kicks things off for us with the story of a car, which can only be described as cursed, and then our team look at an audacious prison break and how it could compare with a trip to Dunelmfurniture store ... there may be more similarities than you realise.In this week's listener story, the team crack a crime which really takes the biscuit... delicious. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

How solved is your crime? Well, thanks to former MI6 employee / journalist / cleaning guru, Aggie MacKenzie, today's story gets a thorough rinsing. Yes, many of you will be familiar with Aggie for her TV show, 'How Clean Is Your House?', but were you aware that she spent some time working for the secret service? Listen to the episode to find out more about that AND our guest's crimes, which just go to show that some criminal situations could have only happened in the 1960s. The team then dig in to some of the lesser known pursuits of one of history's 'naughty boys', who may have wanted to get himself checked out at the sexual health clinic. We then round things off with a listener tale in which the perpetrator certainly had his chips!

The gang are back with another historical case to solve, and helping everyone achieve that goal is comedian, writer & MC, Arielle Souma!Arielle not only brings some handy historical knowledge to proceedings, but also, single-handedly, makes true crime sexy ... FINALLY!We start by hearing about the time our guest was left in a tight spot on holiday, which resulted in a confusing turn of events and a thrilling car ride, before then moving on to hear about a case which is not only a fascinating lesson in royal history, but also one in how inept some potential perpetrators can be.We then hear from cherished Australian listener Vanessa who was framed by someone in her own family for something she didn't do and it looks like detective Souma gets to the bottom of that one too. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this week's episode, the Drunk Women welcome a guest who has ALL the smarts to be a top detective; it's writer, comedian and podcaster, Viv Groskop!Although Viv doesn't hail from the big city, she grew up having to keep her wits about her on the mean streets of Somerset in order to provide key statements to the local police - as you will hear.These foundation skills enable Viv to ask all the right questions and get to the nub of it all... whilst the others do what they do best... basically most of the stuff that Viv does but with about 6 drinks inside of them. All together though, they make quite a team and do a pretty thorough job in solving a case which had dire consequences for thousands of people on one fateful day.We then hear from a listener who needs a mystery solving which only brings home to the rest of us how stingy our Aunties actually are.
