  • New Podcast: Secrets Beyond the Sacramento River

    New Podcast: Secrets Beyond the Sacramento River
    Mar 26 2026
    Secrets Beyond the Sacramento River

    The first episode drops March 30th!
    Each new episode will drop the following Monday.


    We're seeking the answer to the question, "What happened to Jeff Anderson?"


    Jeff Anderson was just 40 years old when his car rolled into the Sacramento River the evening of September 9th, 2023. Despite 911 calls from eye witnesses confirming the entry point of Jeff's car into the river, rescue attempts were not conducted until September 13th- 4 days later.


    Upon retrieval, law enforcement removed Jeff's car key from his front pocket of his pants. His car transmission was in "park."


    Inconsistencies in stories about Jeff's last hours have raised more questions than answers:


    Was Jeff assaulted?
    Was Jeff helped to his car from a bar and taken water?
    Was Jeff roofied?
    Was Jeff in emotional distress?


    We have witness statements submitted to law enforcement saying they were told by eye witnesses that there were two cars that evening, not one.


    When the car eye witnesses were
    followed up by law enforcement, this claim was denied ever being said. Why?


    We'll share dispatch calls.
    We'll share incident reports.
    We'll share toxicology reports.


    Was this a horrific accident, or was this case closed without a proper investigation?


    Why did the PI hired by the family take years to get the report back to family?


    Why was Jeff's car parked only to allegedly roll from a stop across a flat grade road, make a 90 degree turn, and then go into the water?


    Why has Jeff's phone had multiple hacking attempts?


    Why wasn't Jeff's case looking into as a suspected homicide?


    The stories the family were told by law enforcement alone will outrage you.


    We'll be covering the witness reports, police reports, autopsy report, interviews, written statements, and our documented attempts to communicate with Sheriff Cooper and the District Attorney.


    March 30th-
    Time to ask seek the answers to questions law enforcement should have asked before closing Jeff's case.

    rue Crime Headlines | Weird Edition | Week of March 23
    Mar 25 2026
    In this week's true crime headlines episode, we're covering five major cases making news right now. Utah mom Kouri Richins has been found guilty of murdering her husband Eric with fentanyl — while simultaneously promoting a children's book about grief she wrote after his death. In an ongoing missing persons case, University of Alabama student Jimmy Gracey was found dead in Barcelona, Spain after disappearing during spring break; Spanish authorities are calling it accidental but toxicology results are still pending. We also have an update on the Nancy Guthrie disappearance — the 84-year-old mother of Today show anchor Savannah Guthrie has now been missing for nearly eight weeks after an alleged targeted abduction from her Tucson, Arizona home, and the family is pleading for tips as the investigation stalls. In Michigan, Dale Warner was convicted of second-degree murder in the death of his wife Dee Warner, whose remains were found sealed inside a welded fertilizer tank on the couple's farm more than three years after she vanished. And in Florida, two teenage girls — Isabelle Valdez and Lois Lippert — were arrested at Lake Brantley High School after allegedly plotting to murder a classmate in a premeditated attack; both have been charged as adults and are being held without bond.

    If you're into true crime news, cold cases, missing persons, murder trials, and real crime updates, this is your episode. New episodes of Weird True Crime drop weekly — follow, subscribe, and leave us a review wherever you listen to podcasts.

I've listened to over 30 audio books. This is the best most practical book I've ever listened to. It works and it is not manipulation--pure gold.
