Secrets Of Murder Pond - Nettie, West Virginia
This week, in Nettie, West Virginia, a tragic scene is found, when a woman appears to have been killed in a most unusual way. She's found in a pond, on her farm, with a gigantic tree holding her under the water. He husband appears to make a valiant effort to save her, with no success. The problem is, everything doesn't quite add up to the way it appears. The dead woman has bruises where she shouldn't, and her husband has been having an affair with their live in farm worker. Was this a horrible accident, or an absolutely diabolical murder set up?? Many shocking details, and a family that won't give up, make the whole thing clear!
Along the way, we find out that decorating potatoes sounds like a pretty boring background, that when a drifter blows into town, you shouldn't automatically trust them, and that you should be very careful about whop you tell about your murder secrets!!

If you can indict a ham sandwich, you can surely arrest an oak.
The new guy is an amazing terrible film.
cocoa and cocoa beach are VERY different - cocoa beach is trash but cocoa is poor AND trash
The old Pamela joke with Jimmie, I’ve been dying to say this but I actually know a woman named Pamela (pronounced Pah-Mel-a) like James made fun of Jimmie for saying, so ya never know, maybe her name was actually pronounced that way!
Jeej, so fun with the shout out! 🙌
Omg, the walnut stampede! A Touch of Satan also lives rent free in my head lol. I can’t hear Amazing Grace without singing “this song is in…the public domain…that’s why…we used… it twice….”
James mentioned school board banning books. Ya. That’s happening currently here in Alberta Canada. Provincially. Not just locally. Sad.
I was driving when MST3K Touch of Satan came up and I yelled "this is where the fish lives!" and then later when that line was actually mentioned, I nearly died laughing.
I Thought You Were Frank shirt?
I’m allergic to cinnamon! Am I hearing that you are too?
Careful if you have allergy to bananas you could also be allergic to latex and kiwi and maybe avocado
My husband’s family lives around Summersville. It truly is a speed trap. You just have to go there to see what they mean.
I love the New Guy and also had it on DVD.
Haha. I saw that movie so many times. It’s right on brand for Jimmie. 😂
https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna31068453 This is where my brain went as soon as Cyril Wecht was mentioned.
Dr. Wecht had been in the cross hairs of multiple federal agencies from the time he started speaking out on the JFK assassination. He came to my high school in the mid 70s and did a presentation on the subject. He had been doing that type of thing for years. Can’t say for sure that he was right and the Warren Commission was wrong, but his statements and public presentations on that case are widely regarded as the beginnings of truly scientific forensic pathology.
I can't get this episode to play. Ive contacted Patreon but no reply yet. Anyone else having issues?
No issue's for me. Sorry that's happened to you.
HE DIED TODAY! HENRY LEE
And yes, Dr. Lee was born in China. No worries on that one James.
This was a great episode!
"Gary is very, very scary" Great line from the movie Shallow Grave
Dr. Lee WAS Chinese. He literally died today, March 27th, as I'm listening to this episode.
I was checking to confirm he’s Chinese, and saw the word was, and then I saw the date of his death. Crazy timing
Drowned by way of a fallen tree. 685 episodes and that’s a new one as far as cover ups go. Plus it almost worked!
But, how big a tree???? I know how heavy just a single large branch is. 😳
MST3K reference!! This is what happens when WORLDS COLLIDE!!!
Life is better with MST3K. It's a fact.
The MST3K reference made my day!! Touch of Satan is one of my favorites!!
They need to update the census in Summersville. My best friend adopted my niece and she's black. So 99.999999% white.
It never ceases to amaze me how poorly investigations are bungled but I’m just hearing the part about purchasing Life Insurance and going “Come on you lazy fools!!! Seriously you didn’t ask any investigative questions????”🤦🏻♂️
Don’t besmirch New Guy! That was the funniest movie.
I’m at the part where the body is discovered by the husband and I’m already rolling my eyes…sheesh what a hack. Pretending he didn’t know she was there? Gimme a break
My bf's mom was from the hollers. Ada Mae and Herb took us to a snake handling church but we didn't stay. They don't trust outsiders, but after wringing an old hen's neck, Ada made the best chicken and dumplings! WV people are savvy survivors and generous to anyone. The more adversity, the more generous Mountain peeps and Southerners are.
My grandparents had chickens when I was little and seeing my grandma snap and chop the head off almost ruined chicken for me. Grandpa saved the day and told me the chicken was a murder chicken and killed the neighbors cat. Even at a young age I was on board with punishment for murders and animal crimes.
This was crazy! Also tell me happy birthday this week! And I will see you in Denver!!!! (With all the love)
You know, I was just thinking, what happened to the little Asian lady with her brains all over the Marlboros in the disclaimer?
I think she might still be in bad shape unfortunately
I'm pretty sure everybody listening to this podcast thought about inspecting that tree right away. Either of those police were intimidated by him or they felt like they were in over their head and rather than look stupid, they said it was an accident
I’m having the shittiest day. I have never been looking forward to a podcast episode more
Just got my ticket for the live show in Boston. Going alone and I can’t wait! 🦃
I’ll be there!
I’m just picturing Jimmie flopping down hard on the couch and his glasses fly straight off his head and across the room
I was picturing it, too, and it made me laugh.
Just like Folsom lake in Folsom/Roseville California. When there’s a major drought and the lake it empty you can still see a lot of the buildings they drowned years ago
They have cornfield mazes during Halloween where I live.
Same. We go to at least one every year.
Check out Pluto for MST3K and Rifftrax. The ones with Jonas don't count and Rifftrax just raised $2.7 million (out of a $20K goal) for 4 new movies this year.
So as a Clarksburg, WV resident. I think the salon is still standing. If it was across from Notre Dame high school I've been passing by it daily.
My wife is Italian Irish from West VA. Its was the hills and solitude
Great episode dudes.
Yayyyy! WV
Fish eat everything even if it's not exactly food. We spread my Opas ashes in the lake and sure enough the fish swarmed and OPA was all gone 😂 dad said it was fine though Opa ate enough of those fish when he was alive they were just evening the score.
Look you two, you can never stop doing this. I’ve been here since the start. And I don’t like change and you keep me off your show.
Got married at Summersville Lake
Not only a reference to MST3K, but also my all time favorite episode - Thank you, James! “This is where the fish lives” will always crack me up 😂 😂😂
One of my favorites too. 🤣
I try not to curse around my kids, "Gad Dam" is going to be my new favorite saying.
James, I would like to point out that if you were murdered, ALL of us would be hounding the detectives or whoever, until it was solved. You and Jimmie have a MUCH larger family these days!
Ya got that shit right!! 💯
I lollllleddd when james said “he walked into her salon” jimmie immediately goes “why is he THERE?” Great question 😂
I don’t know why the way Jimmie said “Nancy!” made me laugh, but it did.
nancy...
OMG I can't believe I remembered the I-5 killer's name! With legitimate brain damage and stoned 😁
OMG! We are planning to retire there. Lol
"This is where the fish lives"
What’s the problem with Quid pro Quo Jimmie???
Easiest way to make a microwave baked potato: rub with oil and sprinkle with some salt. Put in a bowl and microwave 4 minutes each side (adjust 1-2 minutes/side if smaller or extra big). No need to poke or cover. It turns out perfect!
There is Gad Dam Brewing
Looks pretty good
I'm also allergic to bananas lol. You might be allergic to latex as well because of latex-fruit syndrome.
My wife's middle name is lee 😂
My mom and my brother's middle name is Lee.
Anyone else hate the comment layout now?
I hate this app in general. Not at all STM fault but Patreon blows. I just want to see my Patreon not every creator ever
Gotta LOVE WEST VA .!! They NEVER disappoint! Great one guys..!!
Hell yeah, back in my home state!
