The Baker Street Babes
The Baker Street Babes is an international, all-female podcast started by Sherlockian extraordinaire Kristina Manente. They cover topics as diverse as the illustrations of Sydney Paget and the preservation of Undershaw, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s home, as well as commenting on all kinds of Holmes-related media.
The Babes’ blend of irreverent, witty, and intellectual commentary has won them a devoted and ever-widening group of listeners. They were particularly delighted to be featured on NBC during the 2012 Olympic Games, and they have been featured guests of 221b Con, Elementary Con, and will be featured at Dash con in July of 2014.

“Phil Growick’s, ‘The Secret Journal of Dr Watson’, is an adventure which takes place in the latter part of Holmes and Watson’s lives. They are entrusted by HM Government (although not officially) and the King no less to undertake a rescue mission to save the Romanovs, Russia’s Royal family from a grisly end at the hand of the Bolsheviks. There is a wealth of detail in the story but not so much as would detract us from the enjoyment of the story. Espionage, counter-espionage, the ace of spies himself, double-agents, double-crossers...all these flit across the pages in a realistic and exciting way. All the characters are extremely well-drawn and Mr Growick, most importantly, does not falter with a very good ear for Holmesian dialogue indeed. The tale is fantastic yes, but the skill of the author is apparent for he makes us believe that these events could have happened just as he describes. None of the content is superfluous in any way at all and the whole is a pleasure to read. Highly recommended. A five-star effort.”
