Exceptional violence: The Five Orange Pips discussion
From The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, "The Five Orange Pips" connects vanishing ships, the American Civil War, and what happens when Holmes’s considerable powers are not enough to save the day. Sarah and Marisa discuss Doyle’s depiction of the KKK and his contentious relationship with racism, the kinds of adaptations we’re excited to see in the future, the hand of God, and why Lovecraft sucks. Content warning: This episode contains death by drowning, murder and threats of murder, discussions of suicide, and a backstory about American slavery and the KKK.
