Always, Shedunnit. Even if you don't care about the books, Caroline is a lovely host with a great voice. I also really love Garlic and Pearls. The recent one about the British tax year will give you a flavour of how fascinating they can be (and very good company).

It’s the SheDunnit book club book this month, so I’m about to tuck into it. I’ve read it before and it’s 350 pages, with what feels like Moby Dick levels of information about bells. It is interesting, though, and each bell is rung by a different person, so group dynamics comes into it.

As a fan of golden age mysteries & gothic novels, I’ve read many unknown child plots. Interesting how an existential question, how do you prove who someone is, has become a matter of a lab test. Here’s a SheDunnit episode on a famous case from the Victorian era. www.shedunnitshow.com/thetichborne...
The Tichborne Claimant
The golden age of detective fiction was obsessed with identity. The reason why? An extremely melodramatic Victorian legal case involving shipwreck, Shetland ponies and a tangled aristocratic inheritan...

Shedunnit podcast has many episodes on the true crimes behind Golden Era detective fiction, but I don’t know that she’s done that one. I think someone has, but I’ve never actually seen Mousetrap, so I passed it by.

Me encanta uno de cine clásico que se llama "You must remember this", pero no sé si es un tema que te interese. Y otros sobre novelas policiacas que se llaman "Shedunnit" y "All about Agatha (Christie)".

I discovered via Hugh Bonneville reading Sherlock Holmes Short Stories podcast that has been another of my getting to sleep podcasts.
Best of all, usually, is Shedunnit by Caroline Crampton - talking about classic detective stories. I do listen again when awake 😁

My guess is that they are replicating right wing talk radio, designed for people to just have running in the background as they go about their day.
My first fave podcast, SheDunnit, is a tight 25-30 minutes and hour long shows feel very long to my ADHD ears.

Why did I reread Trent's Last Case by EC Bentley? Because Shedunnit were doing an episode with spoiler zones, so I wanted to make the most of it. The mystique surrounding this 1913 book, and its lasting influence, are fascinating.... clothesinbooks.blogspot.com/2025/10/shed...

Amazing! I love his books (indeed the Shedunnit podcast is reading Tragedy at Law in their book club this month, to my joy). With a Bare Bodkin is one of those wartime novels that properly grasps the trials of civil service admin at the time, I think.
