Welcome to our Election Spesh! Cabot Cove is holding an election and, get this, controversy abounds and someone dies. So your basic American election. We cover it all, play some games and Ben gets politically preachy at the end (sorry, he can't help himself, it's a problem).

Happy Halloween!

You know how sometimes everyone in your town thinks a woman is a witch because it's windy outside when she enters a room or because she's playing a witch in a play? You know, blatant and obvious witchcraft. Well, we discuss that happening in Cabot Cove with our amazing guest, Carolyn Paine! She loves her some JB Fletch!

Carolyn plays for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation

There are 100% marble rooms, Grady selling Jess's short stories to a "girly mag," Robert Stack comes in hot, sexy 80s ladies are everywhere and that only scratches the surface of this episode which is why we are overjoyed to be joined by the one and only April Richardson! She helps us break down the awesomeness and even comes up with perhaps the greatest MSW spin-off idea ever. And we have some brand new games to play with her!

The Father Dowling Mysteries: S02 E10 "The Confidence Mystery"

We've been threatening to review an episode of The Father Dowling Mysteries starring Cabot Cove's own Sheriff Amos Tupper aka Tom Bosley and it's finally happened! We discuss how Mr. Bosley basically just swapped out Jessica Fletcher for a younger nun version of Jessica Fletcher (and there ain't nothing wrong with that). In this ep, the people who are victims of massive theft are, in no particular order, the Vatican, a derpy-derp priest and actual orphans. There is shockingly little remorse about any of it, too.

Happy International Angela Lansbury Appreciation Day!

To celebrate we are dropping a bonus episode this month and you guys, the explicit tag has never been more necessary. Not because of the language but because of the images our awesome guest Anthony Desamito is going to put in your head. Consider this fair warning as we discuss what the Condo 3 were really up to, supes complicated real estate schemes, a plethora of great guest stars and eating butter to prevent getting drunk. Is there science to support that? There can’t be.

Be sure to follow Anthony on Twitter @AnthonyDesamito and listen him on The Golden Girls Podcast he co-hosts with the hilarious Genevieve Rice, Thank You For Being A Podcast.

If you want to donate to Anthony’s charity to help fund improv in Phoenix, check out the GoFundMe for the Second Beat Improv Theater.

Murder, We Spoke Mystery Theatre presents...

"Murder, She Wrote: Criminal Intent"

Aug 5, 2016

We go back to the beginning and you guys get to hear our reactions to seeing our very first episode of Murder, She Wrote. Ever. Needless to say, we were blown away and instantly fell head over heels in love with JB Fletch.

And we almost called this podcast "Murder, She Podcasted" and a shout out to Julia WD Harrison is warranted for actually suggesting the name "Murder, We Spoke." Thanks again, JWDH ;)

And be sure to drop us your entry in the Murder, We Swag giveaway! Listen to the beginning of the ep for all the deets. And all of our contact info is below:

Yoohoo! We couldn't wait a whole month to watch another episode so we are dropping in a little early on you guys. And we could not be happier we didn't wait because this episode is everything! There is basically a JB Fletcher cult, y'all. A cult we could not want to be a part of more quite frankly.

There are untold layers to this episode, you guys. First off, we meet our first true MSW sociopath. We also meet a woman who has clearly murdered at least three humans and is not at all the target of the murder investigation. Watch this episode and then join us to break it all down (and play some fun new games)!

Be the JB Fletch to our Doc Hazlitt and leave us a good review on iTunes (and you know we'll read it on the podcast and tell you how much we love you!).

Just as we promised, inspired by this very episode, there's a new item in our RedBubble store!

Jun 3, 2016

It is the one year (and a couple months) anniversary of Murder, We Spoke! We honestly had no idea if this podcast would make it past episode two but because of how awesome and involved you guys have been we have already made it a whole year! And we never want to stop!

And the happiness ends there because this episode of Murder, We Spoke is grim. Early 90s, gray and pink, grim.

If you have an episode to recommend, that is how we keep the show going so let us know on Twitter @MurderWeSpoke!

Help support the show by subscribing and leaving us a lovely review on iTunes and we will probably read your review on the show!

We are beyond excited to have the hilarious, wonderful, gifted, talented, lovely, hilarious (wrote it twice on purpose) Kira Soltanovich join us! She has an amazing new special out called You Did This To Me and we get to talk to her about what it was like to film a stand up special while eight months pregnant. Turns out it was whatever the opposite of "easy breezy" is. 

NOTE: you may have noticed that we are not covering The Return of Preston Giles but never fear! That is coming in our next episode! We had the privilege of having Kira on the show so we did a special episode that, unwittingly, had tons of mispronounced Soviet slurs. Yeah. We're classy.

You guys, all the accents. Just Americans doing horrendous accents. I am talking about the podcast you're about to listen to and the episode of Murder, She Wrote we just watched. So, you've been warned. So bad, in fact, it almost overshadows all the racism.

And don't forget to head over to KickStarter to help Joel get enough funds to put together a fully furnished Cabot Cove EP! It is going to be so great!

Mar 4, 2016

Another cracking episode of Murder, She Wrote! There is sociopathic lesbians, train robberies, city slickers, pudgy bulldogs and oh-so-much more! Please join Ben and Marissa as they break down this amazingly Cabot Covey episode! And we play some super fun games, too!

Loretta's Ladies are back! Or should we just call them The Real Housewives of Cabot Cove? Either way, we could not be happier to see them! This episode is ankle deep in juicy gossip!

So we watched what may well be the best episode of Murder, She Wrote ever!

If you have not watched this episode yet, DO NOT MISS IT! Then come join us as we break it down in all its glory!
