The very first episode of the Shoecast—and the most-listened-to episode of all time—was about Indonesian Bootmakers. To close out season 3, Ticho and Ben from Stitchdown knew it was high time to revisit that wonderful world of hand-welted boots and shoes.Even in the year since that first episode, so much has changed in Indonesian bootmaking. New brands have emerged. Young makers have risen to crazy—and well deserved—levels of prominence. And the old guard continues to innovate, hone their craft, gain access to incredible new leathers, and just create a better and better product, seemingly every week. So dive in to see where the scene is at today—we'll surely need another one of these episodes a year from now.This episode is sponsored by Division Road Inc, the Seattle shop that creates some of the best Viberg, White’s, Wesco, and Tricker’s makeups you’ll find absolutely anywhere.Theme music: The Road by Punk Rock Opera

Certain great shoe and boot brands are discussed endlessly. And others, well, not nearly enough. This week on the Shoecast, Ticho and Ben get deep into four brands we think deserve a ton more play out there in the conversation—ZEB Shoes, TLB Mallorca, Parkhurst, and J.M. Weston—and get into their histories, unique offerings, value, how to size, and of course, how to get them.Theme music: The Road by Punk Rock Opera

While it may take a true boot geek to realize it, Indonesian bootmakers create some of the best values in handwelted footwear—and at their best, they are truly beautiful sights to behold. But how do you navigate Indonesia's dozens of bootmakers? Who to go with? How to order? What are they charging? Ben from @stitchdown and @tichoblancoshoes go deep on Indonesian boot culture and how it arose, plus the makers you should be considering. And like in every episode, your questions about shoes and boots, leather, care, and more are all answered with disturbing accuracy, in the Shoe Bag.

“I will cable to Mrs. Hudson” [LADY]  Mrs. Hudson. We know her as one of the stalwarts of the Baker Street Scene. Together with Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson, Mycroft, Inspector Lestrade, and Professor Moriarty, she's one of the most popular recurring characters in the Canon.  But what do we really know about her? She only made an appearance in nine of the Sherlock Holmes stories. And other than her "stately tread," we don't have any knowledge about her physical being.  Wendy Heyman-Marsaw is the author of Memoirs from Mrs. Hudson's Kitchen, a book that combines culinary curiosity with a new take on this independent and strong woman. Wendy is a longtime Sherlockian whose interests and career has taken her from the United States to England to Canada, and she joins us to talk about that journey and how it ultimately led to Mrs. Hudson's kitchen. And the book is comprised of columns that she wrote for Canadian Holmes, the publication of the Bootmakers of Toronto.    Please try your hand at the latest Canonical Couplet and try to win a prize – you don't need to be a  – every listener is eligible to participate!

"Billy had appeared in answer to a ring." [MAZA]                It's a rare thing to find a Sherlockian legend these days, but Chris Redmond certainly qualifies as one. From his investiture in the Baker Street Irregulars at the tender age of 16 to his long association with the Bootmakers of Toronto, he is a respected speaker at all kinds of Sherlockian events. And online, he's probably best known for his longstanding and comprehensive reference site .   Chris's writing output is impressive, steady and ranges from the scholarly to the humorous. In Bed with Sherlock Holmes, Welcome to America, Mr. Sherlock Holmes and A Sherlock Holmes Handbook are all well known and in depth volumes about Arthur Conan Doyle's great detective. But in this interview, we move beyond the written page and get into Chris's inspirations and aspirations (still!).   You'll learn what Chris's initial career choice was before moving along to communications and how that initial proclivity stayed with him. You'll hear about some of Chris's great speeches, from the man who loved women to the hilarious take on how to give a Sherlockian presentation. As if there isn't enough to content with in simply concepting and assembling one, Chris shares the most difficult part of compiling a comprehensive biography of some 800 individuals. And finally, we have Chris's next book to look forward to in which he challenges each of 60 authors to determine why every Sherlock Holmes story is the best.     As usual, we couldn't do this without the significant support of Mary Miller for her extraordinary support! If you contribute at Mary's level, you get mentioned on the show. But we welcome any amount of support that you can muster.   Notes 1:50 Welcome and please take our survey at 5:25 Sponsor: 6:48 Introducing Chris Redmond 8:46 First meeting with Sherlock Holmes 11:25 The Toronto Public Library's Arthur Conan Doyle Collection 13:21 Discovering a world of Sherlock Holmes beyond the original stories 16:25 Chris gets started on the Internet 20:33 Setting the course for Sherlockian.net 26:19 Sponsor: 27:50 Finding inspiration and training throughout one's career, and the Spiritualizing Sherlock Holmes project 33:20 Developing the content for A Quick Succession of Subjects 44:50 The impact of color in the Sherlock Holmes stories 48:22 Sponsor: 49:45 Lives Beyond Baker Street 59:10 An upcoming book project: About 60: Why Every Sherlock Holmes Story Is the Best 1:04:25 What Chris is reading now and his book habits 1:09:47 Wrap up   Sponsors This episode includes our two longtime sponsors and a special sponsor who is supporting us for the first half of this year: The , featuring   , where Sherlock Holmes: Behind the Canonical Screen is now available.  And Paula Berinstein's  series for young adults is now available as .   Would you care to become a sponsor?
