What Happened
Anna-Sigga Nicolazzi and Scott Weinberger ended their true-crime podcast 'Anatomy of Murder' at the end of 2025. The podcast launched in October 2020, regularly placed in the top 10 on U.S. charts, produced more than 250 episodes, and had over 200 million total downloads. The hosts sued Audiochuck, the producer of 'Crime Junkie', alleging the company withheld millions of dollars in advertising revenue from a SiriusXM deal. The lawsuit was originally filed in federal district court in New York but was refiled in New York State court in February 2026 after Audiochuck disclosed that UTA is an investor in the company. The case moved because UTA has a New York office. Nicolazzi and Weinberger declined to discuss the particulars of their litigation, stating 'most of that has to stay in court.' The litigation is expected to enter the discovery phase this summer.
Why this Matters to You
If you were a listener of 'Anatomy of Murder', you now have a new weekly podcast from the same hosts available on the platforms you likely use, such as Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and Amazon Music. Each episode of 'Homicide 360' will run approximately 50 minutes, and the hosts have more than a dozen episodes already completed. The independent production through their own companies could mean a different creative direction or business model for the show.
What's Next
The new podcast, 'Homicide 360', launches on Tuesday, May 26. It is being produced through Nicolazzi's company, Forseti Media, and Weinberger's company, Weinberger Media, with Daylight Media handling ad sales and distribution. Trey Anderson, the composer for the 'Anatomy of Murder' theme, is writing new music for it. The lawsuit against Audiochuck is expected to proceed into the discovery phase this summer, which may bring more details about the financial dispute to light.
