In this week’s episode of Sip, Spill & Solve, Kiki and Jeannie uncork a chilling Colorado case that has baffled investigators for decades — the murder of Sid Wells, the beloved fiancé of Robert Redford’s daughter.

We delve into the tangled connections between Hollywood, Boulder’s darker side, and the long-time suspect whose trail has gone cold more than once. From strange behavior, family tension, and a sudden disappearance to an FBI manhunt stretching across the years, this is one of those cases where the truth seems close… but never quite in hand.

Kiki & Jeannie bring their signature blend of humor, heart, and deep-dive curiosity as they explore alternate suspects, motivation theories, the evidence found in the apartment, and why this case still haunts true-crime circles today.
