    UPDATE: Bryan Kohberger & The Idaho Student Murders
    Jul 4 2025

    This week in a shocking twist Bryan Kohberger accepted a plea deal for the brutal murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin.

    In this update – taken from this week's Under the Duvet on our Patreon – we discuss what evidence the prosecution had, why he accepted this deal that will see him die behind bars, and if justice was really served.

    This episode also includes a re-release of our 2023 episode.

  • JFK Part One: America on the Edge | #406

    JFK Part One: America on the Edge | #406
    Jul 3 2025

    Who shot JFK is irrelevant, how many people shot him is the real question. Once you have decided there was more than one shooter, the fate of the world is sealed forever.

    This is the original conspiracy theory, the dawn of the tin foil hat era. The assassination of the President in broad daylight, in front of hundreds, it had everyone asking questions.

    Questions that went totally unanswered by the Warren Commission, tasked with proving that a lone nutcase shot JFK and that the CIA had nothing to do with it… they failed in their mission.

  • The Paedophile Diaries: Dr Joël Le Scouarnec | #405

    The Paedophile Diaries: Dr Joël Le Scouarnec | #405
    Jun 26 2025

    “I am a paedophile… and I’m very happy about it.” The thousands of handwritten entries in the so-called ‘black notebooks’ of France’s worst ever child sex offender revealed more than 30 years of horrendous abuse. In devastating detail, they described acts carried out on young patients in his work as a surgeon, in hospitals across western France. He is likely to have abused more than 400 children.

    The notebooks also showed just how many blind eyes were turned in that time, and how, at home, he descended further and further into depravity: living in filth, surrounded by more than 70 child-sized dolls. Just weeks after the sentencing in May 2025, we open the paedophile diaries of Dr Joël Le Scouarnec.

I cannot say enough about this delightful podcast. These lovely ladies take the listener down a dark path of true crime with wit and facts. I binge RedHanded every weekend while cleaning, walking the dog, cooking dinner…I’m addicted! This podcast is essential if you love true crime. :)

Obsessed

95% of the time I really enjoy this podcast. I've listened to almost every episode over the past few years. The stories are accurate and clearly narrated, if not a little formulaic. My only gripe is that 5% of the time when either of the hosts actually come off as arrogant/insufferable when trying to be funny about something, where they're not very informed.

Great story telling

love the narrators as well as they are absolutely comedic to listen to! they make any story digestible without the excess Grimm factor but they also just tell it like it is! I love the theories at the end as well, really leaves it for an open discussion!

Best true crime that's digestible

Love this !!!

I first found these ladies by chance. I was looking for a true crime podcast that wasn’t droll or borderline insulting to the victims. They are informative entertaining and although this is not their full time job they are very active on social media with their listeners. Continuing the discussion after the podcast has ended. They remind me of my sister and I discussing these cases but save us the time of researching. I don’t know if they will see this but thank you for all the effort you put into this podcast.

Fantastic

In my 30 adult years of true crime obsession, this is my favorite of any show/podcast. The witty banter and sarcastic skepticism is pure gold.
So many shows are dumbed down and/or over explained, so every simple mind can easily follow along. But these hosts are intelligent with an above average (it would seem based on other shows) ability to reason. They each write sections for the other to read, so legitimate, interesting, questions come up and are explained. They look up and read facts that you actually want to know or find interesting even if you already know the basics of. They give you links/sources of you need or want additional information. But don't waste your time explaining things every true crime fan has heard a million times.
The best is the regular comedic breaks from the macabre. Sarcastic responses to statements from media, law enforcement, suspects, etc. Hilariously unexpected language in an English accent is just a bonus.
They were several years in by the time I discovered them, and I listened to nothing else until completely caught up.

Best true crime EVER

Well researched and entertaining. The occasional detours from the stories are also much appreciated.

Absolutely love this one!
