Drunk Women Solving Crime
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.

Ignacio Lopez & Blanche in Franche
55:13||Season 2, Ep. 476We're back in the studio this week and joined by a comedian who brings an international feel to the show, as Ignacio Lopez is of course half Welsh, and so, is able to recount a crime which as well as rocking the Swansea comedy circuit, also displayed Ignacio's inner detective - and the perp's inner idiot. The gang then get involved with a case which if isn't a Tarantino origin story, it darn well should be!475. DWSC LIVE: With Esther Manito
54:17||Season 2, Ep. 475If you were wondering what happened before last week's episode to produce such chaos, today's ep might give some clues, as it's part one of the DWSC Oct residency with the wonderous, Esther Manito! We needed a little bit of extra time for this one, as there were a few microphone gremlins as you might hear in the first few mins, but hopefully that won't detract from the marvellous content provided by our guest, who opened the show with tales of sock thievery at home, and then goes on to work hand in hand with our ever engaging hosts to help solve a predicament which has the men of today and their Victorian counterparts think in tandem. Finally, we hear from a member of the audience who proves maths is even impossible for our Australian cousins!474. DWSC LIVE: With Matt Richardson
01:03:40||Season 2, Ep. 474If you want box fresh, then look no further than today's ep, which was recorded less than 48 hours before its release at the latest DWSC live show from which most of the people in attendance will no doubt still be nursing sore heads.The party atmosphere was aided and abetted by special guest, Matt Richardson, who opened the show by dishing the dirt on some nasty neighbourhood nocturnal activities.The gang then get into a case which yields some surprising facts from the music industry, and thanks to some self-medication on a long-haul flight, there's more than one zombie in the room!473. Pink Thunder, with Farah Sharp
55:14||Season 2, Ep. 473In the studio this week is the fantastic comedian, Farah Sharp, who might not have been destined to hold onto her bike, but at least she probably met its new owner.

DWSC LIVE: With Quivers
52:34||Season 2, Ep. 470Hello and welcome to the annual DWSC seaside holiday to the glorious Ventnor Fringe on the Isle of Wight! This year, the big top was bursting at the seams for a show that included local royalty in the form of drag and cabaret artiste, Quivers!Quivers kicks things off with a story from their youth, where the (fish) finger of blame is still being pointed 16 years on. The gang then see if they can finally solve a ghostly local legend, either from the 16th or 17th century, or perhaps even the 1700s - no one knows - least of all Hannah. Finally, we hear from a member of the audience, who reports some criminal activity that would have any perp shaking in their boots.

DWSC LIVE: With Aaron Simmonds
58:07||Season 2, Ep. 469It's the very last episode from the DWSC 2026 tour and what a way to bow out, as our hosts were joined by the hilarious, Aaron Simmonds, a guy who won't let gender stereotypes affect his eyewear choices or give up in the good fight against the real perpetrators of car crime. The team then head to rural Virginia for an ostentatious escapade in which the perp was well and truly fingered for their misdemeanour - AND a member of the audience shares a playground trauma, which left more than a flesh wound. Thanks SO much to everyone who came to see us while we were on the road, we really hope to be at a town near you again in the near future, but in the meantime, don't forget we're back at our London Residency in September, October and November, details below.
