  • The Murder of Diane Drake, Part One

    The Murder of Diane Drake, Part One
    Mar 11 2025
    1980 - Newport, Rhode Island. On March 21, 1980, as wind and rain swept through Middletown, Rhode Island, 19-year-old Diane Drake got ready for work. But she never made it there. The next morning, her nude body washed up on Easton’s Beach. Witnesses later reported seeing Diane the night she disappeared, walking—and even hitchhiking—along the three-mile route to work despite the harsh weather. But Diane had always warned her younger sister, Jean, never to hitchhike. Would she have ignored her own advice? Forty-five years later, Jean is still searching for answers. And to this day, she believes one thing: Diane Drake knew her killer.

    Innocence on Death Row with Celisia Stanton
    Feb 25 2025
    Do you ever listen to a true crime podcast and think "that's not quite right...?" Or even wonder about the parts that have been left out? Enter Celisia Stanton, host of Tenderfoot TV’s Truer Crime and The Vanishing Point. We sat down for a nuanced discussion on complex cases, ranging from the exoneration of Anthony Broadwater—wrongfully convicted in the 1980s of raping Alice Sebold, author of The Lovely Bones—to the ongoing fight for justice for Toforest Johnson, who remains on Alabama's death row for the 1995 murder of Jefferson County Deputy Sheriff William G. Hardy, a crime he did not commit. To hear more from Celisia, find Truer Crime wherever you’re listening.

No Shtick, Well Researched, Well Delivered

Story told with respect for the deceased. Great mix of storytelling, reporting and interviews. I enjoy other podcasts that deliver the episode in unorthodox ways, however, this podcast is very refreshing! Been listening for a couple years and look forward to new episodes!

what's the new schedule?

I love this podcast. the host. the stories. how they're told. all of it. but what's the new schedule since becoming sponsored. new episodes seem sporadic at best.
