Episode 01: Welcome and an Introduction

We're very excited to debut the first episode of I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere. To set the stage for what you'll expect, Scott Monty and Burt Wolder introduce the concept of a Sherlockian podcast.

Although Burt and I are both members of the Baker Street Irregulars and we will speak about the history and goings-on of the BSI, this is not the official podcast of the BSI. Should that august body ever decide to emerge from 1895 and start its own podcast, we'll be sure to let you know.

In this episode, we explore the following topics:

Why a podcast?
Ways to listen to the show
The breadth of interest in Sherlock Holmes
Listener comments - welcome, encouraged, by phone, email or the comment feature below
Show frequency and length
My First Meeting with Sherlock Holmes - Burt and Scott each share their own first experience with the great detective
The Editor's Gas Lamp - from the Baker Street Journal, Vol. 1, No. 2 (1946), "What Is It That We Love In Sherlock Holmes?"
