Is a very fatal murder a true crime?
‘A Very Fatal Murder’ is a satirical podcast that uses the clichés of a true crime story to deliver a podcast that is funny in its every second, and yet not so mindless as it might initially appear. The podcast has been directed by Ryan Nantoli and Fran Hoepfner. The Onion has produced it while David Sidorov hosts it, going by the name of David Pascall. Katy Yeiser is the head writer for it, alongside Sidorov. The podcast has hints of satire for popular true crime podcasts like ‘ Serial ’ and ‘ S-Town ’. However, it is more of an ode to the genre than an attempt to take down any podcast.
