$6250 and ONE WEEK LEFT

Alright! Every $250 mark we hit on our Season 2 crowdfund, we are sharing a snippet of one of the S2 scripts with absolutely zero context. The last one was getting a bit unwieldy, and though things have slowed down, we just passed the $3250 mark (THANK YOU) so here's the next one and a new thread!

Remember when we did this? Those were fun times. If we hit 100% on the S2 crowdfund we'll do one for Watson. One week left!

That moment when the sticker doesn’t attach and you’re stuck in a WORK MEETING AND CAN’T FIX IT

F&S S2 Crowdfund: FINAL WEEK!

Well, detectives, here we are! The dawn of the final week. The finish line that marks that moment where we get to stop posting about the crowdfund (god I've copy-pasted that link so many times) draws near. The end is in sight. But first, we have ONE WEEK to push toward our goal. 

We are delighted and honored to say that we have raised 80% of our goal - at the time of this typing that means we are just under $6500 of our $8000 goal we set for this crowdfund. That means we have roughly $1500 to raise in 7 days. Will we make it? We don't know, and neither do you (unless you just found $1500 in a pocket when you were getting out your Spring clothes--no judgement, we WILL accept it!). We hope we'll make it across the line, but the only way we'll all be able to find out is if we spread the word. 

SO. If you haven't donated yet and are planning to, this is so very incredibly much The Time to do that--and get one of our fantastic rewards AND some episodes of audio drama! No donation is too small, we truly treasure every donation that comes in whether it be $5 or $750. If you have already donated and are wondering what you can do to help, first of all THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts--and second of all, the answer to that question is to simply tell people we're here. Recommend us to your friends, your enemies, your neighbors, leave us a review, bake some Matcha Focaccia (yes, we have lovely folks doing that already and we LOVE IT)! Spreading the word is the best thing aside from donations that we can ask for. 

Also, in case you missed it, as a thank you to everyone who helped us reach out $750 match goal, we released a FIFTH STICKER which will automatically get added to the sticker pack of anyone who donated or donates at the $30 tier or above at any point in the campaign. Check out our "Ask Me About Sherlock Holmes Entering the Public Domain" sticker below!

We also released a mini-mystery that YOU all helped us create, so if you haven't already, head over to our feed for The Case of the Missing Magician today! And as if that wasn't enough, we ALSO released the recipe for Archie's Lotcha Matcha Focaccia! As we mentioned above, people have even been baking it already! 

Again, thank you. And while the future of this campaign, as well as the future of our detectives, remains a bit of a mystery, we will always be honored to tell this story to you, whether we meet our goal and make it at our intended pace, or take a bit longer to make sure it's good enough and our artists are provided for. If you or anyone you know has any doubts, this money will go toward a story we find such joy in bringing to you. If we can make our listeners feel even a fraction of the joy that we feel making it, we will have done our jobs well. It's the best job anyone could ever have. 

And now, one more time, for our final week: #ForAmbrosius!

BEAUTIFUL! 😍😍😍

Made some matcha focaccia via Archie Cartwright's recipe :) pretty sure I fucked up the focaccia part but damn if it doesn’t have a great matcha flavor (my favorite !!) <33

ignoring my possibly terrible baking when it comes to bread (tastes good tho) Go listen to Fawx & Stallion by @224bbaker and support their season 2 crowdfund! wonderful podcast and such a delight to listen to <3

Hello detectives! 🔎

Do you love:

Mystery fiction, especially paired with a comedic tone, like Knives Out, Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency, or Only Murders in the Building?

Sherlock & Co, and want another, different take on the Holmes canon to add to your rotation of shows?

Irreverent historical comedies with surprising heart and messages about the people who often get left in the margins of history like Operation Mincemeat and Our Flag Means Death?

Re: Dracula, and other audio dramas that present unique takes on classic literature?

British audio comedy like Wooden Overcoats, Cabin Pressure, and Bleak Expectations?

The original ACD Sherlock Holmes stories but wish there was explicit, textual representation of gay, lesbian, and ace identities that are celebrated and centered within the actual text?

Adorable senior cat mascots?

May we present ourselves, Fawx & Stallion, a mystery-comedy podcast about the best detective team on Baker Street! (Not that one.) Our full first season is available now, and we are currently crowdfunding for Season 2! If a queer, Victorian mystery-comedy set in the world of Sherlock Holmes sounds like it might be up your alley, please consider giving us a listen, and if you're able, supporting our crowdfund so that our indie team can bring another mystery to life!

what fiction podcasts are you all listening to these days? with penumbra ending, Magnus archives over, all caught up on midnight burger and camlan, and the countless others that have gone on indefinite hiatus. a girl can only listen to wolf 359 so many times :/

Fawx & Stallion - Audio Verse Awards!

Hello detectives!

We are so excited to share that Fawx & Stallion has won in three categories at the 2023 Audio Verse Awards! Congratulations to Best New Director winners Ian Geers and Lauren Grace Thompson, Best New Show Art winner Sam Twardy, and the whole team for their Best New Production win! Thank you SO much to everyone who voted for us, especially in such an incredible year of debut shows!

If you want to see more of this newly award-winning show, the best way you can make that happen is by donating to our Indiegogo campaign, which runs for 9 more days!

And hey, finally an award WE win and not Sherlock bloody H—

dammit

Here it is: one loaf of Archie Cartwright’s A Lotcha Matcha Focaccia! It’s delicious and pillowy soft. The matcha flavor is very mild and tastes great with a cup of my favorite genmaicha.

Make a loaf and support @224bbaker’s crowdfunding for S2 of Fawx and Stallion, my favorite new podcast of 2023!

$5250!

Hey hi so if you were excited about this may I suggest checking our show out, and potentially donating to the crowdfund to make season two, which will feature Holmes and Watson post-public-domain? We even have stickers!

Fun Fact: in one month (1/1/23), all Sherlock Holmes stories hit the public domain and the Conan Doyle Estate can't do shit! I say this for absolutely no reason but also congrats in advance to the happy couple.

Hey, love your show! Not a question but I thought I’d just let you know that on Spotify and Apple (the apps, at least) there seems to be an issue with episodes 7 and 8. The ads play and then a short snippet of the episode before cutting it off and going back to ads. The strange thing is that on my Spotify it shows that the episodes are 39 minutes but when on the actual episode they’re only a few minutes long. Again, love your show and hope you have a good day :)

Hi anon!

Thanks for letting us know! We’re checking in with our hosting site—this seems to be a Spotify issue. I (producer Lauren) had the same thing happen listening to an episode of You Must Remember This two hours ago and had to switch to another app (hopefully only temporarily). Thank you for letting us know, and fingers crossed on a quick resolution!

$5000! 🎉
