Drunk Women Solving Crime
273 DWSC LIVE: With Nicola Dempsey
Season 1, Ep. 273
•
This episode was released in the darkest days of winter, BUT it was actually recorded back in the heady days of summer when Taylor, Catie and Hannah took to the stage for one of their infamous DWSC residency shows in London, in which they achieved the impossible and split apart comedy double act (and real-life sisters) Flo and Joan - aka Nicola and Rosie Dempsey.You can now hear show one of that night, when Nicola (Flo) joined the ladies on stage to recount the time she stood next to a crime, which involved a celebrity friend and saw first-hand how the police reacted to the famous prey.The team then dive straight into a story which has all the hallmarks of a tale you couldn't make up - and will confirm your lack of even the most basic of survival skills.We then hear from an audience member whose crime story is a hard one for anyone to follow and had a sticky start rather than a sticky end.Next week, it's part two of this Flo and Joan double bill, when you'll hear what happened when Rosie Dempsey joined the force, and helped solve a crime which straddles the stomping grounds of our very own Hannah George.

01:05:20||Season 2, Ep. 319It's the return of Felicity Ward, and at least two things have happened to her since we saw her last:1) Another crime happened 2) she's acquired a detective name, so welcome back to the force Detective Dirtbag! Felicity knew the drill and so, came armed with a crime story to kick things off with, which happens to have some incredibly tenuous connections to the festive season. The gang then pool their resources to solve a case involving one of the biggest musical acts the world has known, who knows if they actually solved it, but at least they did it their way. Felicity also helps us out by welcoming some new Patrons to the fold, as well as some Christmassy ones courtesy of Taylor - don't forget you can get involved too, sign up for as little as £3 a month for access to ad free eps / early eps / invites to our live zoom records AND videos of our studio records, just to go to Drunk Women Solving Crime | creating Podcasts | PatreonCome and see Taylor and Hannah LIVE at their Christmas show in Brighton, with special guests Laura Lexx and Zoe Lyons!Tickets are now on sale for their double header Christmas Show at The Brighton Komedia on 16th December 2024All details can be found here -Drunk Women Solving Crime - The UK's hit true crime comedy podcastAND Their London Residency is back at The Museum of Comedy in 2025!

54:04||Season 2, Ep. 318And just as quickly as it began, it's time to say 'goodbye' to this year's Men's Month - and what a way to go - as the one and only, Chesney Hawkes proves he has many strings to his bow as this week’s fantastic guest. Not only does he share two cracking stories of criminal encounters from his own life, illustrating not even the most hardened criminal has the business acumen, or audacity, of the average teenage girl (specifically those from the 1990s), but he also helps Taylor and Hannah fiddle around with this week's case to find a satisfactory conclusion.

49:55||Season 2, Ep. 317In the penultimate edition of this year's Men's Month, we're thrilled to be joined by the man of a million tangents, Jordan Stephens! Jordan (Rizzle) kicked us off with a story that proves that some of our most sentimental objects happen to be digital, and that Justin Timberlake owes us all some compensation. The team then gets their jaws into a crime, which may just give birth to a new superhero origin story, while this week's listener crime is replaced by something a little closer to home...Check out our Patreon page, for invites to our live zoom records, shout outs, AD FREE and early access to eps and LOTS MORE!Come and see Taylor and Hannah LIVE at their Christmas show in Brighton, with special guests Laura Lexx and Zoe Lyons!Tickets are now on sale for their double header Christmas Show at The Brighton Komedia on 16th December 2024All details can be found here -Drunk Women Solving Crime - The UK's hit true crime comedy podcast316 MEN'S MONTH: With Jonny Weldon
55:41|As we continue our procession through this year's Men's Month, Taylor and Hannah were delighted to welcome the fabulous actor, and online sensation, Jonny Weldon to the force - and were equally delighted with his medley of crime stories, which serve as an endorsement to his incredible work ethic. Not only did Jonny provide theatrics with his own tales, but he also managed to cast himself in today's case, so anyone thinking of making a film of the story, please consider this his audition. Plus, we hear from a listener, who would have taken a millennium if they had to build the Great Wall of China.

52:42||Season 2, Ep. 315What better way to launch this year's Men's Month than to release an episode recorded at our London Residency earlier this year, with none-other than the legendary Charlie Higson? The actor, writer and Fast Show alumni, started off proceedings by telling us about the time he was targeted by a gang, who were compulsive in their criminal activities, before helping Taylor and Hannah 'solve' a case in which a doctor more than ignored the Hippocratic oath and gives us an insight on what the bedside manner of Michael McIntyre would be like. Finally, a member of the audience allows us to debate on all the reasons why her house is so 'burglarable' ... answers on a postcard please!Check out our Patreon page, for invites to our live zoom records, shout outs, AD FREE and early access to eps and LOTS MORE!Come and see Taylor and Hannah LIVE at their Christmas show in Brighton, with special guests Laura Lexx and Zoe Lyons!Tickets are now on sale for their double header Christmas Show at The Brighton Komedia on 16th December 2024All details can be found here -Drunk Women Solving Crime - The UK's hit true crime comedy podcast314. 314 Anna Morris and Her Ladies in Waiting

Jess started things off by talking about the surreal world living with Tourette’s creates and tells us about a recurring crime that results in tedious life admin - surely the biggest crime of all! We then delve into a case that could sit comfortably in the Home Alone film franchises, and definitely doesn't involve Alan Hanson, or the death of Legoland, but does include a glowing leg. Plus, this week's listener crime sparks a conversation about the prevalence of goat sex online...Check out our Patreon page, for invites to our live zoom records, shout outs, ad free and early access to eps and LOTS MORE!Come and see Taylor and Hannah LIVE at their Christmas show in Brighton, with special guests Laura Lexx and Zoe Lyons!Tickets are now on sale for their double header Christmas Show at The Brighton Komedia on 16th December 2024All details can be found here -Drunk Women Solving Crime - The UK's hit true crime comedy podcast312 Bearing with Anna Richardson
52:03|This week, Taylor and Hannah are given the opportunity to fangirl at guest detective Anna Richardson, who as well as possessing enviable skills in crime solving, also fronts a show which the entire DWSC team holds in high esteem.But not only do we get to celebrate Anna's amazing career, she also shares a mind-blowing crime story, which would be deemed too far fetched if any writer tried to put it in a book or film, but unfortunately is an actual true crime, with consequences reaching far and wide. As for the main story today, although the protagonist certainly bears the brunt of this WW2 tale, they do so with the style and panache of the most sophisticated waistcoat wearer. Finally, the team managed to blow this week's listener crime WIDE OPEN … you’ll never trust an octogenarian again.
