About UK True Crime Podcast

The UK True Crime Podcast is hosted by Adam Lloyd and covers real-life crime stories from England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, including serial killings, murders, missing persons, fraud and arson. The show has released 617 episodes since November 2016, with new episodes every Tuesday and Friday, and a typical episode runs 27 to 35 minutes, according to the feed and the Apple Podcasts listing.

The show is published on Acast and carries an Apple Podcasts rating of 4.7 from 596 ratings. Listeners are estimated to be mostly UK adults, though this is an inference from the show's subject matter rather than published data. The show's own description claims over 85 million listens, which the feed does not verify.

The feed shows no sponsors so far. Sponsorship at an estimated 20,000 to 80,000 downloads per episode would be priced at roughly $360 to $2,000 per host-read mid-roll, and would suit UK consumer brands seeking awareness among adult true crime listeners.
