The Valley Of Fear, Part One, Or: Banned On Account Of String Crimes

DESPITE THE BEST EFFORTS of 2019 and A LITERAL CRIMINAL, we are BACK and here to tell you about A THPOOKY VALLEY, which is presumably where that gross ranch dressing comes from. Who murdered this gentle yuppie in his gaudy forest castle? Which network will be brave enough to give us a sitcom about My Three Detectives sharing an apartment? WHEN WILL A WOMAN IN ONE OF THESE STORIES GET A FRIGGIN' NAME?

The Adventure Of The Three Garridebs, Or: The Whackamole School Of Crime Management (Feat. Andrew Orsie!)

We're joined by delightful goblin Andrew Orsie of Good Game Great Game to discuss a story in which GARRIDEBS AS GARRIDOES, we finally find out what America did with all the U's it took out of the British words it brought with it, and a criminal accidentally sets up a charity while trying to do crimes! 

(Did we use the apostrophe correctly up there? Is that how one refers collectively to plural instances of individual letters? We mean, otherwise it'd just look like "all the Us", which sounds a lot like a depressing movie of a depressing YA book written by a middleaged white dude with a name like Roseph Blomfzt, right?)
