Drunk Women Solving Crime

Drunk Women Solving Crime is a true crime podcast with a twist...of lime. Join writer/comedian hosts Hannah George, and Taylor Glenn as they welcome top guests from comedians to crime writers to test out their drunk detective skills.

Each episode sees the boozed up panel tackle personal crime stories, solve true crime cases, and seek justice for your listener crimes.

When women sit around and drink we try to solve the world’s problems. So we’re taking back the night and putting our inebriation to good use. You’re welcome.

Our Editor's Take

The Drunk Women Solving Crime podcast isn't exactly what it claims to be. Yes, the hosts are drunk. But they don't manage to solve the crimes they discuss in each episode. Still, this podcast is a fun listening experience for those who enjoy true crime and comedy. Each week, the hosts get together with a guest to chat about an unsolved crime for about an hour.

The three hosts of Drunk Women Solving Crime have other jobs, too. When she's sober, Hannah George writes for children's television. Catie Wilkins does standup comedy and has authored several books. Taylor Glenn also does standup and writes comedy. All three of the podcast hosts live in the UK.

Every week, Hannah, Catie, and Taylor have a guest on Drunk Women Solving Crime. Heidi Regan talks about the crimes she's abetted without knowing it. Comedy writer Kimia Etemadi shares her brief experience as a vigilante in an episode. Lou Sanders discusses her nefarious past in the episode she joins.

Drunk Women Solving Crime also has a Men's Month. The podcast devotes November to inviting male comedians to the show. Saturday Night Live cast member Mikey Day talks about the night he spent in jail. In another episode, comedian Ed Byrne describes the world of "swag-bag supplies." Comedian Bilal Zafar also joins, telling the hosts about the time he framed his parents.

The podcast usually shares a cold case and a description of a crime every week. The hosts prefer bizarre, ridiculous, or silly crimes. The audience will sometimes chime in with their salacious true crime. While the hosts and their guests aren't great at solving crimes, they succeed in making their audiences laugh throughout the show.

Listeners may appreciate the high energy of the podcast and the quality of its guests. In the live episodes, the hosts love to interact with their audience, making the listener feel as if they are right there in the room. Drunk Women Solving Crime has new episodes each week.

279 DWSC LIVE: With Toby Williams

279 DWSC LIVE: With Toby Williams

But, it's not Men's Month, we hear those of you who are listening to this on release in February 2024 cry.... Yes, true, but Toby Williams isn't any old man, he's an actor, writer AND he married and impregnated our very own Hannah George, so it's actually well overdue that we hear from Mr HG himself.And what better occasion for him to grace the stage than when DWSC was live at the Ventnor Fringe, Hannah's home town on the Isle of Wight.As well as Toby confessing some criminal activity that could well see his marriage on the rocks (being 8 years old is NO excuse), the team also delves into a local crime proving that despite its twee image, the Isle of Wight is a hotbed of vice. We finish proceedings by hearing from somebody in the audience about a crime which originates in Taylor's homeland, which distracted her from the urge to climb-up the rigging of the tent at least!

In a tent literally packed-to-the-trapeze, the team solved a historical, local crime, while being joined on stage by the man who did the impossible and made an honest woman of Hannah - right before he knocked her up - yes, it's Mr Hannah George, otherwise known as actor and writer, Toby Williams... The full episode will be available next Wednesday 21st February. In the meantime, why not catch up with the vast back catalogue of DWSC eps, featuring amazing guests like Katherine Ryan, Sara Pascoe, Desiree Burch, Samira Ahmed, Fern Britton, Shazia Mirza, Susie Dent... the list is (almost) endless.
