“some creature of the weasel and
stoat tribe” [CROO]
There was a fad in mid-century Victorian England that led to
pets becoming more common. But the third week of each month, our
episodes focus not on everyday household animals but rare and
unusual creatures.
In this case, we focus on a member of the family Herpestidae.
Namely, the mongoose. Making a few appearances in popular fiction,
they're just a Trifle.

You know the plots, but what about the minutiae? We delve into the Sherlock Holmes stories and provide answers to questions that arise, clarify muddy details, and look into some of the period terminology in this weekly podcast.
