Fellow Sherlock and Co fans, I have crazy theory based on what we learned from the latest episode (SPOILERS for Shoscombe Old Place Pt. 2!!)

So three things I loved about the episode:

1. John views Baker Street as home to him more than his actual hometown (just a sweet thing that made my heart gush🥰)

2. Sherlock went on a tangent about how all bodies of water meet their ends, whether it’s a sea, a lake, or a WATERFALL!

3. Professor James Moriarty was canonically mentioned in the show right after the waterfall reference!

BUT, the key thing I’m piecing together is that he is a professor as in someone who would work at a COLLEGE, and I remember that it was mentioned in Gloria Scott that Sherlock exposed a principal at his college for a huge scandal he committed; really important to know that this guy’s life was DESTROYED because of Sherlock’s detective skills.

This may be a huge stretch, but this is what my brain pieced together:

1. The principal’s life was ruined by (mostly himself, but in his mind he would blame) Sherlock. He literally cried in a fetal position in Sherlock’s dorm!

2. Sherlock stops his hand stimming when John mentions Professor James Moriarty in the shoutouts yet says nothing.

3. Why would a random Professor James Moriarty want to mention his full name in the shoutouts, including his job title, and that he’s “listening intently to every word”? Why not just say ‘James’ like every other shoutout name and say that he loves the podcast?

So my crazy theory is this: Professor James Moriarty is actually the PRINCIPAL that Sherlock ruined the life of! Either he’s lying about the professor title or he had to work up to be a professor after he got fired from the college and needed to work up some high title such as being a professor to fix his reputation; it works, considering it’s still in that familiar education field he worked up to. Either way, he’s been listening to the podcast and waited until now to let Sherlock know that he’s there…

What do y’all think? Is this truly crazy brain rot, or do you see the connections?

In another world Gordon Porlock is a popular true crime podcaster who has been cancelled on twitter at least three times for being Like That about the horrors

Ok so I listened to SHOS pts 1 and 2 and I just have thoughts about the whole meta around mentioning Moriarty.

Because the podcast plays John and Sherlock as real. As if all of this is actually happening now in our world. It puts any listener with even a passing knowledge of Canon in the very intense position of knowing what's going to happen in a broad sense. We can see how John and Sherlock are doomed by the narrative.

We hold our breath as Sherlock talks about bodies of water though especially waterfalls.

We wonder how John will feel in the future about singing "don't go chasing waterfalls"

We scream as we hear James Moriarty get a shoutout.

But we can't warn either of them what lies ahead. If we try, they won't see it. It will be ignored or dismissed. There's also a sense that we cannot cross that line because it would also change the narrative and we can't because it's already literally been written.

Every listener has been forced into the role of Cassandra with this podcast and it is fascinating.

Sh&co vs. bbc sherlock

Something I feel that really separates Sh&co from bbc Sherlock is that Sherlock is not some super computer mind thats a million steps ahead of everyone.

Yes he is incredibly smart, but he's not the only one who is solving the problems. Like there are several episodes where he couldn't have solved the crimes without John and Mariana.

I just really love how they all work together- Like Mariana and John don't just exists to look stupid compared to Sherlock.
