23 Wendy Wason, The Red Wallet & Charles Manson's Forgotten Victim
January 23, 2019 04:00 - 39 minutes - 53.8 MBFor the Drunk Women, this episode provides a whiff of nostalgia, as it was recorded in the heady days of Summer '18; when temperatures were high, the beer was tepid and guest Wendy Wason wafted-in like a breath of fresh air to get to the bottom of one of the most notorious criminals of the 20th century - Charles Manson. Everyone knows that the Manson 'Family' embarked on a gruesome killing spree, which shook Tinsel Town to its very core - but, fewer know about a previous victim of Manson's...
22 DRUNK WOMEN LIVE - with Olivia Lee
January 16, 2019 04:00 - 43 minutes - 59 MBThe Drunk Women held court in The Pleasance Theatre for this episode, joined by a rather well-oiled crowd and the one and only comedian, actor and writer extraordinaire - Olivia Lee! Olivia proved to be not only rather adept at getting-to-grips with a true crime, but she also knows her way around a bottle of gin - our kind of sleuth. The case itself is one of towering proportions (when you listen you'll realise that was quite clever) and it's got a dodgy Count, which seems to be a staple...

Basically, this episode covers everything imp...

20 Lucy Porter & Lavinia Fisher - America's First Female Serial Killer
January 02, 2019 04:00 - 46 minutes - 63.4 MBComedian, actor & writer Lucy Porter had a bad start to 'Dry January' when she agreed to be The Drunk Women's first guest of 2019. But, as you'll hear, it's totally worth it as the crew dissect the case of Lavinia Fisher, thought to be America's first female serial killer, although we DO know she was hot, so we should probably forgive her. Lucy tells us about a rather niche crime she keeps falling victim to and one of our dear listeners tells us a story which will make you think twice befo...

December 19, 2018 03:00 - 44 minutes - 60.6 MBThe Drunk Women went back to the Pleasance Theatre in London, armed with a crate of gin, a little festive cheer and comedian Suzi Ruffell - who also lent her considerable sleuthing abilities to the occasion. Guest Suzi kicks things off with a crime against mindfulness, whilst host Hannah presents a case which will never let you view Santa in the same way.

The Drunk Women then tackle the tale of Maggie Dickson - if it sounds familiar, you probably read it on the back of a pub menu in Edinburgh (which is how Hannah gets most of her historical knowledge). As always the trio and their beer guzzling guest solve one of your listener crimes. Though in this case...

Louise displays top sleuthing skills when she helps a listener get to the bottom of what happened to her goldfish and if her student days are anything to go by, her forensic abilities were probably acquired later in life. Don't forget to...
