Welcome to Hellish, the only podcast that comes to you from Hell's waiting room.
In each episode, Hell's receptionist Daniel Whelan and Satan's tea boy Alex Gale interrogate a newly damned soul, asking them for the five songs they will meet in Hell: the music that we will use to torment them for all eternity. The condemned take us through songs they are embarrassed to have once liked; songs they can't stand that are otherwise universally adored; songs that remind them of bad times; songs they hate by artists they love; and songs that once stuck in their heads, they can never get out.

Kellie Shirley, actor & writer
Welcome to Hellish, where we ask our guests for the five tracks they will meet in Hell.
Episode nine! We're welcoming actor and writer KELLIE SHIRLEY to Hell, to get the five tracks that will torment her for all eternity. Kellie is familiar to millions as Carly Wicks in British soap Eastenders, Kirsty in Idris Elba's In the Long Run, and currently Sophia in Casualty. In this episode, we talk about being immune to a certain boyband, what happens if you accidentally scoop yourself on an exclusive you've sold to OK! Magazine, and how narrative storytelling is literally going down the toilet.
Kellie has a new podcast drama out, which benefits the Children's Society. ROAR is available on whatever platform you are reading this message on. Go get it!
This week, Hellish is joining Kellie in supporting the Children's Society. We're giving you the chance to get the extended patreon version of the episode for $3 (two quid something in UK money). Every single penny we take will go to the Children's Society (we'll be covering the cost of Patreon's fees to make sure your money goes to the charity). You can buy the extended version of the episode at www.patreon.com/hellishpod/shop

Iain Cook, musician (CHVRCHES and Protection)
Welcome to Hellish, where we ask our guests for the five tracks they will meet in Hell.
Episode six brings us to musician and composer IAIN COOK. Iain is one third of the band CHVRCHES and one half of new project Protection. We talk the Beano universe, what exactly the rules are when it comes to a song universally adored that you cannot stand, whether or not CHVRCHES ever ride around on BMX bikes with their names on their t-shirts, and the worst job Iain has ever done. We also reveal three more of Alex's Coldplay Connections in what we hope will not become a regular feature.
