Chris Moyles Show Transphobic Feature Claim Fact-Checked
“Chris Moyles had a feature where they'd deepen the voice of one of the female producers and called her tranny Rachel or something like that.”
Summary
Available information on Chris Moyles’s shows lists regular segments such as “Buzz Off” with team member Rachel, but there is no record of a feature that deepened a female producer’s voice and referred to her with a trans‑phobic term. The claim is unsupported by reputable sources.
