The last episode is now available on my delightful new Patreon with *no advertisements* and over the coming days I'll put all the other ones up there in similarly pure form. As well as a frankly unwise number of other perks and benefits for subscribers.

I think I'm going to introduce a Ko-Fi type thing as well as a sort of 'tip jar' because several people have requested that.

Hmm, damn it, yes I obviously would.

I think there's maybe a discrepancy between how much of a household name you think I am (kindly) and the reality...

YOU aren't case sensitive.

It's very good of you to say so.

I did look at merch codes and things but it felt not generous ENOUGH. It's tricky.

There is now! patreon.com/MarkWatsonWorld (not sure those capitals are right)

Thank you, it IS a bit awkward - that's why it took me so long.

Thanks to everyone who has signed up for the Patreon! I know I talked about 'supporting the project' and so on but I've already spent all the money on opium.

Well, there are company tickets I can allocate and so on. I think it'll be fine, I'm grateful for the support to be honest. I don't think people will ever take it up in sufficient numbers to cause trouble but it would be a nice problem to have...

It's a disappointing first result to set off a potentially deadly global war, certainly, but you can't judge them on that. Give them ten, twelve conflicts, see how we're looking after that.

Episode 12 is ready for you. Are you ready for *it*, though? I suppose it depends on whether you (a) have listened to the previous 11; (b) have more pressing things to be getting on with. Anyway, it's there and you might will find you enjoy it.

Yes they can do!

I did think exactly that, as I was posting it. My fanbase don't always interact normally with things (complimentary).

That's right, there is now a Patreon so you can support the podcast (and the continuation of my life, in troubled times for writers). But it's not even officially launched yet, so you shouldn't know. Shush! www.patreon.com/MarkWatsonWo...

You'd need to ask @matryer.bsky.social.

We've got this @murderbastard.bsky.social side project available outside of Discord finally.

This IS how hard some people are committing to theories elsewhere.

Just easier for everyone I think.

Recording studio with a microphone, a plant, and a script on a computer screen which says 'Murder Of A Famous Bastard Episode 12: Everything You Need To Know'. A few Calum and Hugh lines, but you can't see what they are. Oops!

This should clear all your questions up.

I did think of that!

Episode 11 is out, despite attempts at SABOTAGE*. Thank you for listening and for your kind remarks. And huge gratitude to Richard Hughes for a breakneck edit. Luckily, the coming Sunday's mini-season-closer is a very simple, unambitious episode (LOOKS TO CAMERA).

*a couple of coincidental problems

What have you got to hide?? Oh I see, your fingerprints, phone numbers, all personal data, etc.

There are 25, so we're almost at halfway...

They would if they KNEW about it, yes.

This week we have battled against the theft of our editor's phone, the unavailability of an actor who was meant to be quite heavily involved, and the inadequate wifi of a Liverpool hotel. Will you get episode 11 (Chemistry) at the usual time? I cannot SWEAR to it, but let's be positive.

Also, Hugh makes a decision at the end which some of you will not be impressed by.

And one could lead to the other.
