Mystery Show (Podcast) | comment |
Mystery Show was a podcast created by Starlee Kine and produced by Gimlet Media (one of their first podcasts). In each episode, Kine took on a strange but mundane mystery brought to her, such as investigating the overnight closing of a video store, tracking down the owner of a whimsical belt buckle, or finding out exactly how tall Jake Gyllenhaal is. The only rule is that the answer can't be easily found on the internet. This forces Kine to do plenty of research and legwork, which puts her in the path of numerous interesting characters.The show had just one six-episode season in 2015 before going on hiatus. Over a year later, it was announced that Kine had left Gimlet and that the series wouldn't be involved in any future seasons of the show, though they were working with Kine to let her continue with it, leaving the door open for a season two that, as of 2019, has not yet materialized.Kine later teamed up with her client from episode five, David Rees, to produce Election Profit Makers, a podcast miniseries revolving around the 2016 Presidential Election. You can find it here. | |

Failed a Spot Check: In "Video Store," Jon the store-owner claims that Laura must have missed weeks of sale signs and the fact that they sold most of their inventory. Laura disputes this and, for what it's worth, the woman who introduced Starlee to Jon also claims that there was no notice of the store's closing. In "Kotter," one of Starlee's investigators is paranoid that he watched episodes so closely he missed what he was looking for. | |

A little while later, she finds herself unprepared to explain the situation when she's standing at the house's front door. | |

In "Britney," Starlee encounters a cab driver who once drove Britney and he speaks glowingly of her. In "Belt Buckle," it's revealed that the titular belt buckle was a gift to Hans Jordi, a chef, from Bob Six, a powerful businessman who he worked for each summer for a decade. | |

Insane Troll Logic: In episode five, someone notes that Jake Gyllenhaal must be six-foot-three because he was (allegedly) supposed to play the Joker, who is six-foot-three. Others point out that that doesn't make sense because they can't confirm that the Joker is six-foot-three. Starlee suggests (probably jokingly) that the discrepancy might be why Jake didn't get the part. | |

Starlee also stops at a diner that has pictures of Law & Order cast members on the wall. In epsiode two, "Britney," buying V.I.P. passes from Ticketmaster involves completing a Robert Frost quote. In episode five, "Source Code," David shouts out the theater where he saw the titular film. Starlee also mentions Peter Sarsgaard and The Dark Knight. (Specifically, the rumor that Jake Gyllenhaal was supposed to play The Joker.) Episode six, "Kotter," naturally contains a number of shout-outs to the show's cast, and also mentioned "John Travolta, dealing with the release of Going Clear on HBO." It also goes into depth discussing the lunchbox industry and the many properties that had lunchboxes made. | |

Red Herring: A few: In episode one, Starlee finds herself in a neighborhood bar, surrounded by locals fondly reminiscing about a neighborhood video store that had suddenly shut down due to a flood. Case closed, right? Except the store in question closed about 20 years before, long before the movie that Laura rented had even been released. In episode three, Starlee convinces herself that Bob Six is a pseudonym for Bob Bland. It isn't. Starlee spends a good chunk of episode four trying to figure out what the 911 in "ILUV911" could mean, not believing that it could mean September 11th as she first believed. Turns out that's exactly what it referred to, but not for the reasons you might think. | |

Mystery Show (Podcast) / int_ef20d7bc | comment |
A Minor Kidroduction: Episode one starts with a monologue from Starlee about how she and her sister found an old safe as kids, and how that sparked her love of mysteries. Subverted in "Kotter," when Jonathan asks if he should start from the beginning, and Starlee asks if "beginning" means childhood. | |
