Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! After being so well-behaved last time, this episode the crew gets particularly unruly, and even attempts to usurp Ben as host. Bombs, chemicals, and well-endowed actors are the name of the game here! Columbo always gives us a nice place to blow off some steam, and if the silly string isn't enough, we also consider the mellified man, an Ace Attorney d...
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we've got a special guest, an expert in shin honkaku mysteries: MinovskyArticle! He graciously agreed to help break down this influential novel by Alice Arisugawa that helped inspired many other modern mystery writers, including our favorite Ace Attorney directors Shu Takumi and Takeshi Yamazaki. We chat about the fun character interactions, th...
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! This episode we're taking one last detour, this time in Lupin the 3rd, which is maybe not a direct inspiration on Ace Attorney in the traditional sense, but certainly is in the cultural mix (remember Mask☆DeMasque?). We talk about several episodes from season 1 of the original anime and debate which one of us is which member of the crew (we can't ALL...
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! We're wrapping up our Maurice Leblanc section with the end of "The Blonde Lady" saga and "The Jewish Lamp" tale. Once again, Wilson/Watson gets the Gumshoe treatment, we chat about other Ace Attorney parallels, and also get into how some of the female characters are handled. Plus, we side-step into Transformers, what a Lupin subreddit would look like...
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! We're back with more Lupin, as Leblanc takes us even further into the world of copyright dodging with several tales of the thief's encounter with the great detective... Herlock Sholmes! We chat a bit more about the name change, the somewhat mean take on Watson/Wilson, and how much this collection of stories influenced Shu Takumi! And of course, we al...
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! We wrap up our first venture into the world of Arsène Lupin with four pretty good stories that cross the gamut from grim to goofy, and even drop the world's greatest detective into the mix! We cover black pearls, submarines, and secret underground passages. Plus, do you have a hot, intelligent friend who's super cool and clever? Better watch out! The...
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Time to get a little mischievous, a little rascally, while also still quite gentlemanly - it's Arsène Lupin! Today we cover the first half of the original collection of stories that make up the origins of the famous thief, which includes some fun romps through France, mysterious necklaces being stolen, and perhaps even impressing a few ladies along t...
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!"

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."

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...

Every Ace Attorney game is now completed, so we take an episode to debrief, catch up, and answer some listener questions, too!

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
