In this month's Masters Class, we turn for the final time to a
work of Edgar W. Smith's, "Up From the Needle," as featured in Vol.
2, No. 1 (1947) of The Baker Street Journal.
Edgar takes us away from the canard of Sherlock Holmes as a
drug addict and gives us an oenophile's assessment of Sherlock
Holmes as a wine fancier. It's just a Trifle.
If you have a suggestion for a Trifles episode, let us
know at trifles @ ihearofsherlock.com. If you use your idea on the
air, we'll send you some Sherlockian goodies.
Our Patreon supporters can listen to our shows ad-free and every
one of them is eligible for our monthly and quarterly drawings
for Baker Street Journals. Join our community of patrons

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.
