Episode 160: Adapting Sherlock Holmes

“singularly adapted to our needs” [MISS]  With our first episode of 2019, we're pleased to welcome fellow podcasters Jeremy Latour and Arielle Lipshaw, hosts of Adapt or Perish. They came to our attention because of a couple of episodes they did on Sherlock Holmes. Jeremy and Arielle have a process they follow, complete with a quadrant, to help make sense of their assessments of how literary works are adapted from medium to medium. They have a good sense as to what works and what doesn't, and are prepared to defend their rankings. They reviewed their Sherlock Holmes and Hound of the Baskervilles episodes with us, and provided a preview to the very next Sherlock Holmes-themed show they have planned. We have a new segment that we're debuting in 2019: "As We Go to Press" with Mattias Boström, co-editor of the Sherlock Holmes and Conan Doyle in the Newspapers series. Toward the end of the episode, you'll find the latest Canonical Couplet. See if you can figure out the story we're referring to, and you might win a prize.
