OK folks - except for everything Computers/Electronics, what do you nerd out to and what is it? #nerdout
@jascha Golden Age of Murder Mysteries / Agatha a Christie & friends. Gardening. Drumming.
@janl @jascha Ooh, tell me your favorites!
@janl @jascha Murder mysteries that is

@vollkorn I enjoy Christie unapologetically, almost everything she did, with extra soft spots for Miss Marple and Timmy & Tuppence. I do love Dorothy L Sayers’ Wimsey (and Allingham’s Campion), but who are we kidding, Harriet Vane a lot. The early Freeman Wills Crofts books are very good as well and I enjoy a good chunk of the Ngaio Marsh books.

From the more modern variants, I enjoy Elly Griffiths, Seishi Yokomizo, Harini Nagendra, Anthony Horowitz, Alex Michaelides, Nita Prose, Vaseem Khan.

@vollkorn I recommend the Shedunnit and All About Agatha podcasts for inspiration, deep dives and author interviews.
@vollkorn I’m happy to make more specific recommendations should you want them :)
@janl Which are your favorite Whodunnit movies?
@vollkorn I meant I am happy to suggest books to you, if you can tell me what kind of things you like.
@janl Yeah, I figured, but I was wondering about movies, too, because these I can better enjoy together with my partner.

@vollkorn The Orient Express, Death on the Nile and Evil under the Sun are classics for a reason, they are star-studded and very good. I’d stay away from the Brennagh ones. The modern Rian Johnson ones are exquisite, however.

For comedy, of course, Clue is the gold standard.

Otherwise I’m not that much into the movie format.
