Chuckles

"with many chuckles" [HOUN] We typically don't guffaw ourselves through the Sherlock Holmes stories. They're not designed to bowl us over with amusement. Nor do we snicker, sneer, or chortle. But there was a good deal of chuckling going on in the stories. And Sherlock Holmes was doing most of it. In what situations did Holmes chuckle and what does that tell us about his outlook? It's just a Trifle. If you have a question for us, please email us at [email protected]. If you use your inquiry on the show, we'll send you a thank you gift. Our Merch Store is open: Trifles mugs, notepads, and oval stickers can be yours (or someone else's, if you'd like to make it a gift). Start shopping today.
