Podcast Overview

However Improbable is a podcast book club about Sherlock Holmes, by and for the people who love him.

Holmes himself famously said that there’s nothing new under the sun—but we’re willing to give him a run for his money. howeverimprobablepodcast.com/ https://twitter.com/improbablepod

Case file: The Napoleon of Crime (Moriarity)

This episode is a deep-dive case file into Holmes’s great nemesis - the Napoleon of Crime. As a follow-up to our discussion about “The Final Problem,” we’re taking a closer look at Doyle’s great criminal mastermind - Moriarity. The all-knowing villain is introduced and brings about Holmes’s supposed downfall in that story. He’s been adapted many, many times - from his own pastiches and Holmes stories to comic books and musicals. He’s almost as famous as Holmes himself. Sarah & Marisa discuss the many, many version of Moriarty out there, from their personal favorites to perplexing appearances. Do you have a favorite Moriarity? Something we missed? We'd love to hear it!
