Of all the countless people who’ve met someone at a party and talked about starting a podcast, few have actually gone on to do it - and fewer still have turned the result into a globally successful phenomenon. For Hannah Maguire and Suruthi Bala, hosts of the true-crime podcast RedHanded, this is exactly what happened however, and the show has gone from strength to strength since its debut in 2017. This year, the pair have also branched out into hosting their first limited-run series, Filthy Ritual, on behalf of Novel and Wondery. 

Much of this success is based on the easy chemistry between the two co-hosts, and in this week’s episode, Rhianna Dhillon and Reem Makari talk to Maguire and Bala about how they found their rhythm as partners, their research process, and why they’re the perfect office-mates.

Hosted by Rhianna Dhillon, and produced by Emma Corsham for Haymarket Business Media.
