    Sherlock Holmes and Edwin Drood
    Dec 18 2025

    "Oh! a mystery is it?" [STUD]

    When Charles Dickens died in 1870, The Mystery of Edwin Drood was only six chapters into its 12-chapter run. There were no sketches or outlines of what would come next, so for a century and a half, scholars have puzzled over the solution. In 1968, Colin Prestige, BSI ("Captain Jack Croker") made a bold claim: that Sherlock Holmes could have handily solved the case, in "Sherlock Holmes and Edwin Drood," which appeared in Vol. 18, No. 3 of The Baker Street Journal. It's this month's "Mr. Sherlock Holmes the theorist" episode and it's just a Trifle.

  • Who Wrote the American Chapters of A Study in Scarlet?

    Who Wrote the American Chapters of A Study in Scarlet?
    Dec 3 2025

    "Nine to seven." "Seven to five." [STUD]

    For anyone who has first experienced Sherlock Holmes through A Study in Scarlet, Chapter VIII is a shock to the system, placing us squarely in the Great Akalai Plain with John and Lucy Ferrier, and narrated by... who? Ben Vizoskie had that same question in the 2000 BSJ article "Who Wrote the American Chapters of A Study in Scarlet?" which was awarded the Morley-Montgomery Award that year. Many scholars have pondered this over the years, but Ben seems to have cracked the code. And it's no Trifle.

  • Calling Cards

    Calling Cards
    Dec 1 2025

    "He sent in his card with a message" [CROO]

    In our own digital age, business cards are nearly artifacts of the past. And calling cards? They're so outdated we had to create this episode. Numerous individuals in the Sherlock Holmes stories present their cards to Sherlock Holmes and Holmes presents his card to a few people as well. What's the history behind calling cards and visiting cards and how did they play into the stories? It's just a Trifle. We have bonus content for our supporters: images of Victorian calling cards that might surprise you.
