‘Canadian True Crime’ host Kristi Lee on her 200th episode milestone

January 21, 2026

Since its launch in 2017, Kristi Lee has built the Canadian True Crime podcast into a global hit with over 75 million downloads and a consistent chart presence. More impressive yet, the podcast has turned a profit, all while retaining its financial independence without the backing of a network.

Lee joins us on Broadcast Dialogue – The Podcast as Canadian True Crime publishes its milestone 200th episode this month with a fresh look at the Robert Pickton case.

She joins us to share the ups and downs of her podcasting journey, including managing burnout and perfectionism, the case that stays with her more than others, and her advice to other Canadian podcasters.
