Updated Autopsy Report

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! After already having some Columbo, we're going back to the fridge at 2:12am for more Columbo. This time around we've watched "Suitable for Framing," an excellent episode with twists, turns, and plenty of pestering the criminal. Hell, Columbo falls asleep right in the villain's apartment! What do we think of the culprit, the art theming, and several e...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we have a very special episode for you: it's Tiago's birthday when we recorded this, and you'll hear about it no less than seven times during the runtime (possibly more)! Oh, and we also watched Murder on the Orient Express, the 1974 adaptation of the iconic Agatha Christie novel of the same name. We forget actor's names, discuss the ethics of ...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! We wrap up our coverage of The Innocence of Father Brown with some wild ups and downs, between atheist cobblers, hammers plummeting from the skies, journeying to fairyland, and worshiping the sun the sun the sun! We also deal with some old-timey racism, wonder whether women can wield hammers, and all the fun Catholicism can hold for us. Or not. Any r...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! This episode tackles another iconic and influential detective: Father Brown! We chat about this scrungly little priest who has heard all the deepest darkest secrets from criminals, and now puts that knowledge to use to catch them. And sometimes befriend them! (We all become huge fans of Flambeau basically right away.) As we make our way through the f...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we're watching the first episode of the original Columbo TV movies, "Murder by the Book!" This excellent introduction to the character is a favorite of ours already, so we're thrilled to rewatch it and talk about it here! We talk about Peter Falk, Jack Cassidy, and how this episode was directed by Steven Spielberg! We also have our usual tangen...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! This episode we're covering two short stories by Edogawa Ranpo: "The Murder on D. Hill" and "The Psychological Test." One is the first ever story featuring Ranpo's detective Kogoro Akechi solving a salacious killing, and the other is a howcatchem featuring a scheming university student who thinks he's done the perfect murder - and he also encounters ...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we're starting with one of the classics: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's first Sherlock Holmes novel, A Study in Scarlet! We figured our curriculum needed a solid base first, so why not start with the most famous detective of all time? We tackle the character of Holmes, the odd second half of the book, and Watson's immediate fondness for the man. Of c...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose complete their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! We've done it! Every Ace Attorney game is now completed, so we take an episode to debrief, catch up, and answer some listener questions, too! The crew debates Kazuma's story arc, our favorite tunes from the game, and which culprit we'd most like to defend. We also get into the very light topic of art and criticism, and talk about how cool...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose wrap up their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! It's finally over, we've completed them all! Every single Ace Attorney game has been played (well, until someone finds a way to port those pachinko and VR games to PC)! Rose and Tiago discuss with Ben and Dessy their thoughts on the final case, the villain, Van Zieks' character arc, and our final big deductions. How did they land on Sholme...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose continue on their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! There's several revelations to talk about today, one being about Yujin Mikotoba, and then several cascading questions as a result of that! We also have two wacky witnesses again, but honestly we put them away pretty quickly to get into the real meat of things: Sholmes is an asshole! We also visit Rose's Theory Corner, but Tiago also sn...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose continue on their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! There's turmoil in London as one of Scotland Yard's top detectives is murdered! And Van Zieks is the suspect! Between visiting patriarchs, prison wardens, and the Red-Headed League, things are topsy-turvy as we figure out what's going on in this case. Plus, you know, we're still recovering from sickness so we're kind of wacky this epis...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose continue on their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! Unfortunately, Rose is sick this week, so we asking Iro to join us and do the impossible: rank every character from the original Ace Attorney Trilogy! We do our best to figure out where each character should go, and maybe do a bit of bargaining along the way. This is ALL business folks, no fun or jokes - just serious rankings of charac...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose continue on their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! We've got a chunky podcast for you today folks, with tons of sexy witnesses, big revelations about van Zieks' past, and the complete reveal of the mysterious masked assistant... there's a ton to discuss, and we still find find for a trademark side tangent or two. How do Rose and Tiago react to the reveals? Does this change their opinio...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose continue on their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! Well, the Great Exhibition is here! So many wonders and sights to see! Surely we will have time to take in the ambience, and won't get whisked away on another wild case involving explosions, hot air balloons, screwdrivers named "Andrew," or inventions that can supposedly teleport people! We also get Rose and Tiago's reaction to wax mus...

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose continue on their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! A place where we support Women's Wrongs, and also take 20 minutes to let Tiago rant about van Zieks. That's it, that's pretty much the whole podcast this time. Well, we also discuss Shamspeare's hateability, some new weird theories that will definitely come to pass, and all the ways you can obtain strychnine (not really). We'll finally...

We had to take the week off due to travel/vacation and work stuff, so please forgive us taking another break so soon! To help, I put together a little clip show feature several funny moments from previous episodes. Nothing too fancy, hope it tides you over until we return. Take care of yourselves, be good to each other, and keep on keeping on! Godspeed, Reporters!

Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose continue on their journey to play every Ace Attorney game! Time to go back, to a time when Soseki Natsume was still in London, and another tragedy befell him! We finally meet two NPCs who briefly showed up in game 1, William Shamspeare and Adron B. Metermann, who add some levity to the grim, poverty-stricken streets of London. Soap, gas meters, dances of deduction, and Dessy calling Soseki her...
