Rachel Fairburn | Podcasts

Rachel is a popular podcaster, co-hosting and co-creating a range of them, including:

All Killa No Filla: A popular true crime podcast that she co-hosts with Kiri Pritchard-Mclean; together, they talk all things murder and macabre.

Ghoul Guide: Rachel has had a lifelong passion for the supernatural, and in this podcast she meets with three people who tell her the spookiest stories connected to a location before she then spends a night in those haunted places. The twist is, only one of the stories are real, the other two are scripted inventions, and it’s down to Rachel to pick which one is the real chilling tale.

Glad Rags: Co-hosted with Paul McCaffrey, they invite a top guest from the world of entertainment to curate their perfect night out. Guests have included Matt Richardson, Justin Moorhouse, Sikisa, Jo Caulfield, Joe Wilkinson, and Darren Harriott.

Harpurvale: A series of humerous short stories written by Rachel set in the fictional suburb of Harpurvale.
