Bonjour, détectives! This week on Be Gay Solve Crimes, we bring in Commissaire Jules Maigret for some much needed gender questioning. Specifically, the Georges Simenon novella Maigret and the Dead Girl, for which the best on-screen adaptation unfortunately stars the most Brought-In-For-Questioning actor we've yet encountered.
Oui, nous regrettons tout.
We've watched it so you don't have to.
Join us as investigate the Saddest Detective In The World. A man with the lungs of a twelve year old. A man who isn't sure what a pipe is, let alone how to get rid of his own. A man who, if the subtitles that we very legally downloaded are to be believed, sure knows how to choke every last drop of gravy out of the head of his duck (???)
For more Be Gay Solve Crimes, check out our patreon, where for as little as £5 a month you can get access to a new bonus episode every fortnight, including our past bonus episodes on Disco Elysium, Silence of the Lambs, and LA Noire!
Next week, we're cracking open an old case with the girls to ask whether they really got the right culprit in the classic two-part Simpsons episode Who Shot Mr Burns.

The Be Gay Solve Crimes team is made up of November Kelly, Mia Mulder, and your local librarian Lucy.

What? You thought Be Gay Solve Crimes were gonna take our sweet time getting round to this? You think we'd tease you like that? We've never been more serious about anything in our goddamn lives.
That's right. You've waited long enough. It's time for L.A. Noire.
It's like regular noir, but it has an e on the end because it's for girls.

On this week's Bonus Episode of Be Gay Solve Crimes, we take a leaf out of the late great Hannibal Lecter's book and, tongues firmly in our cheeks, attempt to pin down that most curious of transphobic shapeshifters, Silence of the Lambs (1991). Available in full right now on our Patreon! 
Join us next week as we turn our magnifying glasses on Miss Marple in the 2005 ITV adaptation of A Murder Is Announced where we give ourselves crippling 1940s Woman Dysphoria, watch the butchest of butch lesbians spank The Hogs, and learn just how incestuous UK casting decisions can get.

This week on Be Gay Solve Crimes, our investigation brings us to Hercule Poirot in Death On The Nile (1978).
Join us as we hunt down a League of Library Assassins, enlist Butch Maggie Smith to help us finally make the switch to injections, and watch Angela Lansbury down a crocodilian cocktail* to appease Sobek, God of Semen.
*A croc-tail, if you will.**
**We won't.

Welcome to our new transfeminine detective podcast! Every episode, Mia Mulder (@Potatopolitics), November Kelly (@postoctobrist), and Lucy From Scotland (@absobloodylucy) interrogate a different piece of detective fiction in hopes of answering the greatest mystery of all: is being a detective a kind of trans?
For our first episode, we are proud to present a truly inexplicable 1940s Sherlock Holmes adaptation: The Woman in Green. Featuring hypnotism, cannabis, and laws against fat people. Elementary, my dear listener.
If you like this episode, we will be releasing bonus episodes on our Patreon, starting very soon with perhaps the most transgender detective fiction of all: Disco Elysium.
