The Watsonian Weekly

The Bull Pups review the final part of Sherlock & Co's adaptation (?) of "The Red Circle." Not much else going on this episode!

Can you retell one of Dr. Watson famous tales in thirty seconds? Can a member of the John H. Watson Society do it AND include details deemed relevant by a certain podcast host? This episode, we find out. Also, our review of part 3 of Sherlock & Co.'s adaptation of "The Red Circle."

This week we discover who might have been John Watson fiercest Canonical enemy, and also address his ongoing microphone issues on his gangster podcast. Beyond that, what might Moriartian forces have done to discredit Watson in 1922? Not going to tell you here, that's for sure!

If you were hoping for some John H. Watson Society audio already, you might have to wait another week. Somehow the Bull Pups & Co. manage to make talking about a very short episode of Sherlock & Co. run twice as long as the thing they're talking about.

Okay, we're mainly going to talk about the glorious finale to "The Three Students" adaptation from Sherlock & Co., if you can believe that story now has a glorious finale. Otherwise, the usual stuff. Enjoy!

A little news, complete with a tune, and then we get into what happens when Holmes and Watson go on campus in the latest Sherlock & Co. And then there's a bit of 1903. 

It's August and that means one thing for the John H. Watson Society, and it's not a trip to Scotland to look for jellyfish. Watson news, a very long review of Sherlock & Co's "Lion's Mane" finale, and maybe a touch of harmonica to round out the week.

What happens when we take the show to Minneapolis (and a bit of Wisconsin)? Really, not much but some iffy audio. We visit 221B, review part two of Sherlock & Co.'s "Lion's Mane," and report a little bit on the weekend. Not as long as usual, so plan a second activity for when it's done!

Okay, this episode had very little editing because a certain podcaster is on vacation and just not spending the time. So you've going to get some full-on sound of a John H. Watson Society meeting game and the Bull Pups discussing Lion's Mane part one. Just relax and take it all in, it's a long one!

A little bit of news and we're off to hear the Bull Pups on part three of Shoscombe Old Place, as the week flew by as quickly as John having a car-to-car conversation with Bobby Nob-head. So here you go!

It doesn't take much to set a Watsonian or a Sherlockian on the trail of a certain professor of mathematics, and last week's Sherlock & Co. definitely triggered the alarms!  But we do mention Watson a few times . . .

Bull pups Calder and Beacon shop for books, and then bull pups Maddie and Starlight show up for the usual review of the latest episode of Sherlock & Co., with everything we've now learned about John Watson!

Okay, let's just admit it -- this is mostly going to be a review of part three of Sherlock & Co.'s "Dancing Men" adaptation. But there is talk of Guy Ritchie's upcoming Young Sherlock series and Watson's Literary Agent's relationship with seals. so there's that. The podcast year is half over with this episode, though, so you still have that to cling to.

A Watson app, a bit of excitement over the Home Secretary, a certain bull pup gets more fascinated by bullets than one might expect, and what was up with Watson and his literary agent in 1897?  Here we go again!

How is Watson connecting with Star Trek this week, and why is he singing? Was that the reason he had (Spoiler Alert!] sex with so many clients? And what was his literary agent up to in 1914? Do you really want the answers? Do you? Okay.

A little news, a little explanation about Watson's watch from Bull Pup Buck, then it's on to part two of "A Case of Identity" discussion about Sherlock & Co. Will it be what you expect? I sure don't know.

Many Watsons enter the ring, only one Watson leaves. The John H. Watson Society spends half the show extolling various Watsons, and then the Bull Pups take over the last half of the show and just go on about Sherlock & Co.'s Watson doing so fabulously in his latest episode. ("A Case of Identity"). See if any of those bits change your mind about the greatest Watson out there!

This one has it all! Big Watson news, pronunciations of all sorts, some love for Sherlock & Co.'s Reigate Squire episode, a new Moriarty theory, celebrity cricket, and, inevitably, the end of the episode and that point you have to listen to something else until next week.

We're all over the place this week, which isn't that unusual. Attempting to find a movie that connects actor Harvey Keitel to a Watson character? That might be. Venezualan food, a TV show from the mind of a Baker Street Irregular, and Watson's literary agent taking on a grammar school are just a few of the places the pod goes this week, so buckle up and listen in. You'll hear at least one thing yo...

What can I say? We just kept talking after the Silver Blaze discussion on the May 6, 2024 episode. So if you really just want to hear bull pups Mooch, Maddie, Starlight, and Calder chatting about random Sherlockian things, including THAT movie, here you go.

There's a whole lot of horse race talk in this week's episode as four Americans try to wrap their heads around a more fully realized adaptation of "Silver Blaze" at the Grand Nationals. If you'd like to see just the sort of race Silver Blaze would have run in, here's a link that our guest bull pup: https://youtu.be/8q6ewCO4tB4?si=u6nTLvnQPiaKON9T

Talk of the John H. Watson Society journal, a Watson we don't care much for, Watson having three of something instead of two, and the third part of Silver Blaze's latest modern adaptation is reviewed. And we might all still be recovering from a certain con.

Buckle up for a full hour of bull pup chatter, ranging from a new waffle based Sherlockian society, through artists we saw at 221B Con, to the usual goings on about the second part of "Silver Blaze" from Sherlock & Co. The game is afoot . . . well unless you're reading bull pup Buck's copy of A Study in Scarlet. You'll see.

While some podcasts use a venue like 221B Con to get some good content, The Watsonian Weekly once again just gets random audio that somehow is just a messy version of our usual show. But we got an episode out!

The Valley of Fear, New Zealand, and household plumbing systems -- you never know what you'll find in any of them!  But we touch on each before we spend more time than the show we're reviewing lasts to discuss the second part of Sherlock & Co.'s "Retired Colourman." Arf arf!
