My Perfect Podcast: Kiri Pritchard-McLean
In this column, we ask a pod person about the ‘casts that mean a lot to them. This month, it’s Kiri Pritchard-McLean, the writer, comedian and ‘clothes magpie’ whose All Killa No Filla (in which she muses upon a mutual fascination for serial killers with co-host Rachel Fairburn) has notched up ten years in your ears and is about to hit the road

Which podcast educates you? You’re Wrong About. I love it. It’s a perfect mix of pure facts and diligent journalism, and unabashed worship of pop culture. Start with the five-part episode on Princess Diana and thank me later.
Which podcast makes you laugh? Like Minded Friends with Suzi Ruffell and Tom Allen. They’re both so charming and funny, and this podcast, described as ‘white noise for gays,’ is my go-to when I’m cleaning the house and need some delightful distraction.
Which podcast makes you sad or angry? Crime Analyst. I don’t listen to many true-crime podcasts but Laura Richards’ one is so well researched and meticulous that it’s astounding. It can leave me equal parts furious and depressed that victims (women) are still being so let down by society and police.
Which podcast is your guilty pleasure? The most guilty thing I can think of (cos I have largely exquisite taste) is when I listen to my own podcast. This is vile, but sometimes I listen back to episodes of Who Are You Wearing? but this is testament to the quality and insight of the guests as opposed to the quantity of my ego . . . I hope.
Tell us someone who currently doesn’t have a podcast but totally should. And why do you think their one would be amazing? I’m in a sketch group called Tarot, and Ben Rowse, who is the other writer and director, is SO FUNNY and barely anyone knows that. I’m loathe for another white man in comedy to have a podcast but I will make an exception for Ben.
Pitch us a new podcast idea in exactly 17 words I Don’t Remember That in which people sit down and talk to their school bullies. Juicy, right?
Episodes of All Killa No Filla are available now; the tenth anniversary live show runs from Saturday 30 March–Saturday 1 June.
