"I had a note from my brother this morning" [STOC]
Thank you for your continued interest in "Mental Exaltation," the quiz segment of the I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere internet radio show. You can listen to Episode 80, in which our guest Zach Dundas played on behalf of a contestant (annotated below at 1:20:00).
If you've listened to NPR shows like Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me! and Weekend Edition Sunday, you'll know that there are opportunities for listeners to participate in quizzes. In the former, a guest typically plays on behalf of a listener; on the latter, the listener plays live on the air.
As I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere (the podcast) has a connection with NPR - we've been called "a cross between NPR's Car Talk and Fresh Air" - we thought it would be entirely appropriate to model our own quiz program after the two above.
Here's how "Mental Exaltation" works:
As I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere (the podcast) has a connection with NPR - we've been called "a cross between NPR's Car Talk and Fresh Air" - we thought it would be entirely appropriate to model our own quiz program after the two above.
Here's how "Mental Exaltation" works:
- Each month, we'll post a qualifying question to determine a listener who'll play / be played for on the program. Winner will be chosen at random from all correct entries.
- If you'd like to enter, you must subscribe to I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere by email.
- We'll either have a guest play on your behalf or we'll patch you into the show to have you play over the phone or Skype.
- If your player or you succeeds in passing the test, you'll win a random item from our I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere Grab-Bag of Goodies (that's the IHOSE GBG).
Episode 81 of I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere will feature author, celebrity and former NBA star Kareem Abdul Jabbar, who has written Mycroft Holmes
. Our quiz and the qualifying question are directly related to the book, so stay tuned!

Good luck!
