10 years, 10 shows, 10 cities. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of their smash-hit true crime comedy podcast, co-hostsKiri Pritchard-McLean and Rachel Fairburn are set to embark on a highly-anticipated 10-date ‘All Killa No Filla Live’ tour from 30th March 2024. This milestone run includes shows at Glasgow’s King’s Theatre, London’s Hackney Empire, Bristol’s Old Vic and the Manchester Opera House, with tickets going on pre-sale to their mailing list this Wednesday 29th November at 10am, followed by the general on-sale this Friday 1st December.

Get ready, Legends! The 10-year anniversary of the 'All Killa No Filla' podcast is upon us, and comedic best friends Kiri and Rachel are heading out on their most legendary UK tour yet with their trailblazing blend of true crime and comedy. Join the dynamic duo as they dissect notorious serial killer cases, striking their trademark balance between thoughtful and entertaining, with an empathetic focus on the lives of the victims, all delivered with their signature oversharing and lightning-speed digressions. But here's the twist – these are exclusive live shows, and the content won't be recorded! That's right, you can only hear these captivating cases told by Kiri and Rachel in person. Whether you're one of the original 'Legends' or a fresh face to the podcast, get your tickets now for an unmissable night of laughter, intrigue, and a touch of the unexpected!

On marking a decade of the podcast, Rachel Fairburn says: “The Legends know more about me than my own family so I’m looking forward to taking a live show on tour to celebrate a decade of over sharing. There’s nothing like seeing the looks of disapproval in real life.” 

Kiri adds: “I'm so glad we get to celebrate ten years of wandering off topic and being libellous with the amazing group of listeners we get to call Legends. I love making this podcast and ten years of working with Rachel has absolutely flown by - maybe because she hasn't aged at all in that time? The podcast is fun when we record it, but it's REALLY special when it's live and I have a feeling we'll be talking about these ten shows for years.“

One of the UK's original indie podcasts, ‘All Killa No Filla’ was created in 2014 thanks to a back bedroom chat between comedians Kiri Pritchard-McLean and Rachel Fairburn about their shared fascination with murder. Charting a course way ahead of the curve and redefining the podcast landscape with its own unique true crime comedy genre, it has grown into a cultural phenomenon gaining a legion of dedicated fans (aka Legends) amassing to over 250,000 regular listeners, and has had 10.5 million downloads to date. 

Over the past decade, the podcast has successfully expanded into live shows, including sell-out UK tours, critically-acclaimed Edinburgh Festival Fringe runs, and a tour of the United States. This is a testament to Kiri and Rachel’s ability to bring their shared passion, humour and friendship from the studio to the stage, connecting with an ever-growing community of ‘Legends.’
