Wondery | RedHanded

RedHanded the podcast jumps head first into all manner of macabre madness. We cover everything from big time serial killers (and those you may never have heard of), to hauntings, possessions, disturbing mysteries, bizarre whodunits and basically anything that tickles our creepy fancy. So, join us, plug in, sit back and prepare for scares.

RedHanded

What do you do with a prisoner so unhinged that he’s been kicked out of 120 prisons to date? How have Britain’s most secure facilities dealt with a man who could explode in a frenzy of brutal violence and destruction at any moment? What happens to a man who spends more than 25 years in solitary confinement? And most importantly: now that Britain’s most infamous inmate has rebranded as an artist, poet, and man of peace, will it ever be safe to let him out?

This is the story of the larger-than-life British institution, who once stripped naked, greased himself in butter, and ran at a dozen armed guards – just for the love of the brawl.

Charles Bronson: Britain’s Most Dangerous Prisoner | #415

In 2006, the body of Polish student Angelika Kluk was found hidden in the most unthinkable place: stuffed beneath the floorboards of a Glasgow church.

The man who put her there – greyhaired handyman Peter Tobin – was about to have his own sins laid bare. And what police found would reveal a predator whose impact stretched far beyond the church walls: with vanished girls, broken families, and a raft of missed opportunities to stop a prolific offender from slipping through the cracks of the UK justice system.

Eventually, Tobin was unmasked as one of Britain’s darkest serial killers, with whispers linking him to the infamous “Bible John” murders. His true victim count? Only God can keep the score.

Confessions LIVE in NYC | #413

Sold into slavery at just four years old, Iqbal Masih’s future was not bright. He was set to be one of the millions of children and adults across Asia trapped in bonded labour. 

But Iqbal was no ordinary child: he would escape slavery, campaign tirelessly to free fellow children, be recognised on the global stage – and then tragically be assassinated by the “Carpet Mafia” – all before his thirteenth birthday. Here is his unthinkable story.

Iqbal Masih: Enslaved, Empowered, Assassinated | #412

In 2016, ex-footballer Andy Woodward revealed on live TV that he and countless other boys were sexually abused by their former youth coach, Barry Bennell, whilst training in Manchester City and Crewe Alexandra’s acclaimed “football factories” as youngsters in the 1980s and 90s. 

In doing so, he blew the whistle on one of the UK’s most prolific child abusers – and triggered a scandal that went deeper than anyone could’ve imagined…

Because Barry Bennell wasn’t the first – or the last – paedophilic predator to muddy the pitch of the beautiful game. The widespread child abuse scandal tore through the heart of British football, revealing a toxic culture more interested in collecting trophies than protecting children.

Football’s Abuse Scandal: The FA’s Darkest Secret | #411

In our second and final part on Erin Patterson’s deadly beef Wellington dinner, we focus on the jaw-dropping trial.

So: did she purposefully forage for death cap mushrooms, then cook and serve them to her extended family with the express purpose of giving them a slow and painful death? Did she really lie about having cancer? Or was it all just an innocent mistake?

The video version of this episode will be on our YouTube channel from 31st July.

Erin Patterson & The Mushroom Murders: Part Two | #410

Jeffrey Epstein – the billionaire financier-turned-serial-sex-trafficker – is back in the news, in another new guise that no one saw coming: political football.

So let's take a look at what we know (and, more pertinently, what we will never know) about the so-called “Epstein files”.

ShortHand: The Epstein Files

NOTE: Our update on the Epstein files will be released TOMORROW (Tuesday July 29th) to everyone. In the meantime, for all the context, here’s our two-parter in full!

--

The story of Jeffrey Epstein – the billionaire financier with an industrial-scale web of child abuse implicating some of the most powerful people in the world – sounds like some half-baked conspiracy theory. But it’s all true.

We tell the story from the very beginning – from Epstein’s grifting origins to sex-trafficking minors over to his private island. And how Epstein kept on getting away with it, despite there being hundreds of people that knew what he really was: a dangerous, influential and insatiable child rapist with a sophisticated network of fixers. 

And finally, we take a look at what kind of justice – if any – was served. Plus: what really happened in that jail cell in 2019?

FROM THE VAULT - Jeffrey Epstein: Parts 1&2

At lunchtime, a family in southeast Australia sat down for beef wellington with a mushroom duxelles, creamy mash and buttery green beans. The next morning, most of the guests would be violently ill. A week later, three of them would be dead. Only one diner was totally unaffected: the host, Erin Patterson… who later would stand trial for murder by poison mushroom.

In part one of our post-trial evaluation of this case, we take a look back at that fateful lunch, and Erin’s increasingly evasive and bizarre behaviour in the weeks after it – all while her family members fought for their lives.

The video version of this episode will be on our YouTube channel from 24th July.

Erin Patterson & The Mushroom Murders: Part One | #409

On Wednesday 2 July 2025, a jury found Sean Combs NOT GUILTY of sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy – his two most serious charges, which carried a potential sentence of life in prison. He was found guilty on lesser charges of transportation to engage in prostitution.

So, despite all the clear evidence of guilt, how did the jury come to this decision in just two days of deliberation? We take a closer look at how the trial went down, what part Cassie Ventura played, and where the defence went so very wrong…
