There are gatherings happening every week, in person and virtually, of Sherlockian societies.</p><p>And just like the Sherlockian societies that sprouted up in those early years of the hobby, Steve Doyle, BSI ("<i>The Western Morning News</i>") thought it might be helpful to bring some of them together in a spirit of building Sherlockian community and creating connections.</p><p>And that's taking the form of the inaugural BSI Canonical Conclave, taking place in Indianapolis on April 26, 2025. We talk with Steve about what we might expect there and what he expects to come from this unique gathering. Whether you're attending or not, he shares vital information for your own activities.</p><p>We have some Sherlockian society events we share in "<b>The Learned Societies</b>" segment, Madeline Quiñones tells us about another Sherlock Holmes podcast in "<b>A Chance of Listening</b>," and the <b>Canonical Couplet</b> quiz tests your Sherlock Holmes knowledge with something from the IHOSE vaults for one lucky winner.  Send your answer to comment @ ihearofsherlock .com by April 14, 2025 at 11:59 a.m. EST.

It was a momentous occasion, as Kean is only the sixth head of the BSI since its founding in 1934.</p><p>Burt and Scott had an opportunity to speak with Michael on a wide range of topics, including his Sherlockian origins (which were induced rather than pursued), his career in the publishing industry, early days in Sherlockian scions, and his role with the BSI Press.</p><p>Michael also takes us behind the scenes to give us the story of his selection as the next BSI, going back a number of years. We discuss his vision for the role of a literary society in the twenty-first century and more pointedly, the difficult decision to make the 2021 BSI Weekend a virtual affair.</p><p>Also covered is our upcoming 200th episode: we are looking for your feedback. And of course, the latest round of <b>Canonical Couplets</b>. We had a record number of submissions in the last episode; the prize this time is a copy of <i>Sherlock Holmes: The Writings of John H. Watson, M.D.</i>, compiled by Edgar W. Smith and printed in 1962 by the Baker Street Irregulars.
