This episode breakdown explores why crime scene investigators treat the scent of bitter almonds like a smoking gun. It uncovers the real chemistry behind cyanide poisoning and highlights how popular TV shows—including NCIS and CSI—frequently use this classic mystery trope.

A dead chef. A crop circle. A UFO convention descending on Brokenwood. This week Jacob and Jessica are back in New Zealand for the Season 12 opener of The Brokenwood Mysteries TV show. Can we solve whodunit before Detective Mike Shepherd drops the big reveal, given that it is absolutely not aliens? Or maybe it is? Jessica does, in fact, guess aliens, but somehow her guess that doesn't involve aliens is even stranger. Jacob's guess nearly gets him on the wrong side of Kiwis everywhere, but are either of them correct? Along the way: Jessica defends the word "molded" to a skeptical Midwesterner, and they attempt to settle the matter once and for all by considering writing to Green Day. They also break down why Frodo is the true MVP of every episode, why a groundskeeper assaulting a detective is somehow completely fine, and why a character wanting to be married to aliens is the saddest and most relatable thing they've heard in a cozy mystery in a long time. ⭐Rate & Review Cluedunnit Podcast!

Jacob loves artisanal cheese -- so why did he upset the cheesemaker at the Farmer's Market? Jessica is one of the most stylish people around -- so why does she want a sparkly crocheted toilet paper cover from a Farmer's Market? And what do Taika Waititi, Bret McKenzie, and golf have to do with the Farmer's Market? Maybe nothing! But then again, maybe everything! We also discuss protein donuts, a preponderance of watermelons, and relay some surprisingly accurate information about snakes!
