Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
You know, we need to send an apology out there
to the universe that we talk about food a lot
on this show, right a lot. Yeah too, And we
know how it feels if you have to if you
have to do a blood draw, you know, they need
to do some testing on your blood. You can't eat,
you have to you have to fast and so wait,
it's not good when you work with people who talk
(00:26):
about food and eat right in front of you, as
we will do. We don't care. Like, remember the other
day Scary had to go in for a blood testing.
We're like, not long. I'm like, that's nice. Samantha online twenty.
Here's us talking about fasting for blood work all the time,
and she can sympathize. She just had her blood drawn.
Was it? When did you have your blood drawn? Samantha?
Speaker 3 (00:47):
Oh, at seven thirty this morning was my appointment. I
had to go fasting last night at like seven thirty
at night, and normally after seven thirty, yeah, normally after
seven thirty eight o'clock. I don't eat, but it seems
like the moment they tell you cannot eat, you're starving.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Yeah, the whole day the morning.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
That's the point. So no coffee, and the good news
is you got an early blood draw. Can you imagine
if you had to fast all the way till like
one o'clock this afternoon.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
I know, I word, I could not do it because
I need coffee in the morning.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Okay. So another thing is when you're fasting for a
blood draw and testing, you start thinking and obsessing over
the first thing you're going to eat. When you can
eat something. So did you do that?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Oh? Yeah, My doctor conveniently is five minutes away from Wendy's,
so I immediately left our office until five minutes up
the road, got like the baconat or breakfast sandwich and
French toastick. And I'm like eating French toasticks driving on
the highway because I lived like twenty minutes away from
And I'm like, yeah, there's still good.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
You're convinced you're going to starve to death. Oh my god,
I've been eaten since seven. But you're good now, right?
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I am? I'm stuck now, I'm it's just horrible. As
soon as they tell you can't eat, that's when you are.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
The hungry at exactly. Yeah, it's always that first meal
after you get your blood taken and drawn. Well, I
tell you what, thanks for our friends at Wendy Since
you're a huge Wendy's fan, I hear it, We're going
to give you a fifty dollars Wendy's gift card so
you can spend it. But also Wendy's is giving you
a two hundred and fifty dollars cash gift card. You

Speaker 3 (02:47):

Speaker 2 (02:51):
After we're done with this show, I'm like, the first
thing I'm gonna eat. I have some leftovers. I can't
wait to dive into that. All right, thank you so
much for listening. Samantha, Hold on one second. Yeah. You know,
when they tell you you can't eat, you need to
eat immediately. That's how it works because you obsess over it.
So we went to Almah as we always do on Sundays.
We went to Alma yesterday and we were there for
dinner and I brought home some pasta, some soup, and

Vuitton cases that are on that building. Across the street
is the Louis Vuitton store and up on the fourth

The Burden
The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
