Megyn Kelly is set to captivate true crime enthusiasts with her latest project, “MK Confidential,” a series launching on her YouTube channel and podcast. The Daily Mail exclusively announces that the series will kick off on Monday at 9 PM ET. In its episodes, the show will delve deep into infamous cases, including the harrowing murder of JonBenet Ramsey and the spine-chilling DC beltway sniper attacks. Kelly will take the helm as host, guiding viewers through this gripping narrative journey, which will unfold over eight consecutive weeks every weekday. “Like millions of others, I am an avid admirer of the true crime genre,” the former Fox News host said with enthusiasm.
Explaining the motivation behind the series, Kelly shared, “This series was born out of a desire to revisit the most compelling, unforgettable cases in one place, dissecting one mystery at a time in a narrative form.” She eagerly anticipates the audience’s reaction, adding, “I hope you find the results as addictive as we have!” This new venture expands Kelly’s “MK True Crime” channel, inaugurated last year. Notably, Kelly’s flagship program, “The Megyn Kelly Show,” has risen to become one of the country’s most-consumed independent broadcasts since its inception as an audio-only podcast in late 2020.
Collaborating with SiriusXM since 2021, Kelly has transitioned seamlessly from her roles at Fox News and NBC to independent media. Her episodes will be accessible every weekday across platforms such as YouTube, Apple, and Spotify. Prior to her television career, Kelly practiced law for nine years as a corporate litigator in Chicago, eventually stepping into the role of a legal correspondent for Fox News, where she reported on Supreme Court decisions. The public’s fascination with true crime narratives remains robust, consistently ranking among the most popular podcast genres. A report by Edison Research highlights that by 2024, 84 percent of Americans aged 13 and older engaged with true crime content, underscoring its enduring appeal.
