RedHanded is an award winning true crime podcast that offers a weekly dose of murder, wit and “WTFs” delivered with all the facts, anecdotal tangents aplenty, serious societal scrutiny and real BRITISH flavour.
4 years ago hosts Hannah Maguire and Suruthi Bala met at a party, they got drunk and decided to start a true crime podcast together. Within months they had started recording the very first episodes of RedHanded, with a £10 microphone, locked in a cupboard under Hannah’s stairs.
Today, RedHanded is an internationally-renowned, hit podcast racking up millions of downloads every single month from self-proclaimed ‘Spooky Bitches’ (the fanbase’s affectionate nickname for itself).
Since the good old cupboard days, the show has gone from strength to strength, including: winning Gold at the British Podcast Awards in 2021, penning a Sunday Times Best-Selling book in 2021 and selling out multiple live UK tours.
With their trademark humour, research into real-life cases, and unflinching analysis of what makes a criminal, RedHanded take you through the societal, behavioural, and cultural drivers of the most extreme of human behaviour to find out once and for all: what makes a killer tick?
RedHanded has gone from a hobby, to a hugely successful business thanks to the show’s legion of dedicated fans.
RedHanded’s live shows are guaranteed sell outs. Their current record, set by their Glasgow fans in 2021 is 4 minutes!
A cult hit balancing true crime, progressive politics and a lot of charm” – Vox
“RedHanded is a rollicking listen” – The Guardian
“Hannah and Suruthi will inspire you to plunder the crevasse that is Reddit and remind you that even locking your doors might not be enough to save you.” – Vulture
“A major draw for listeners is the rapport between the two presenters and the palpable enjoyment Suruthi & Hannah take in each other’s company. It is often very funny, despite its dark subject matter.” – Crime + Investigation
