4.8 out of 5 stars from 674 ratings
  • Not bad at all, but connoisseurs won't like it

    The hosts discuss the TV show Poirot, despite knowing little about Agatha Christie or her books. Nevertheless, the podcast can be quite entertaining, if only the hostess would stop mispronouncing 'et cetera' as 'ek-set-er-uh' — it sounds terrible every time!

  • Reliable, entertaining … love it!

    Frankie and Adam are fantastically entertaining and well-informed as well as being totally reliable. I am impressed with their ‘stick at it’ approach. Quite a few podcasts that are not based on hugely funded models (The Rest is… I’m looking at you) simply fade out and disappear, often without warning. They put their hearts and souls into this podcast and it shows. Great guests too and for those who are looking for more, add-on events and a sense of community. Excellent!

  • Why did I wait so long to start

    I only started listening this podcast as of may this year. The craic is 10000/10 and to have all the main cast of the show to be interviewed is all that you need to know to get stuck in to this podcast. The only regret I have is that I join so close to the end of the main series and missed out on merch.

  • Thoughtful, Engaging, and So Much Fun

    Frankie and Adam do a multi-level analysis of the Suchet Poirot adaptations that is so witty and humorous it makes me laugh as I learn. While they occasionally reference the books, they are definitely focused on the television shows both as stories and as adaptations. I enjoy their podcast so much that I re-listen to the older shows as I’m waiting for the new ones to drop. Thanks for all your hard work, Frankie and Adam!
