Jeff Bezos is trending because he set a record with
a with the purchase of a one and sixty five
million dollar home. Oh fantastic. That's so great to hear.

And I love I love it for him, I love
it for America. We have the highest uh cost house.
Now in your face. I don't know what the one

paid for a house. Uh well, I don't know. Ken
Griffin put down to thirty eight for a New York penthouse.

dots in here. Nobody cares. Sonic reviews are in Sonic
the Hedgehog. Sonic is coming out tomorrow, just in time
for Valentine's Day, popular popular romantic film. Uh and I
would say surprisingly good, Like it depends on what you
(02:59):
expectations were, right right. I think some people there's such
a mix of reviews. Some say how Sonic the Hedgehog
avoided death by Twitter with a dramatic whatever twist, Sonic
the Hedgehog proves the Internet wrong. Sonic the Hedgehog review
Jim Carey makes a grand return. Then there's other ones
that just says Sonic The Hedgehog is bland and disposable.
(03:23):
Other Forbes says Sonic the Hedgehog is another surprisingly good
video game movie. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know
where to land on this. That's my boy Scott Mandelson,
Not really my boy. He was on the same podcast
with him once in the past, But I do like
his movie analysis, like film industry analysis. I can't necessarily
ride for his opinions on movies, but he said that
(03:45):
Sonic the Headhog Hedgehog isn't just a perfectly enjoyable kid
targeted comedic fantasy. It isn't even just a pretty good
based on a video game movie flick. It is the
fifth good video game movie and a oh he's pointing
to tomb Raider with Celicia Vickender uh, and Rampage and
(04:09):
Pokemon Detective Pikachu and get ready for it, Sony is
surprisingly good Angry Birds movie too. These are all movies
he loved. Yeah. I mean I think he just sees
everything and he's like, yeah, that was pretty good. Alright,
Like he's not like, you know, this is Kubrick. He's
not a critic. Yeah, man, that'll work on people. Yeah, kids,
(04:34):

I go out and make up your own mind on
Sonic the hedge Hug the movie. Uh. And then finally,
Gallantine's Day is trending. Shout out to all the gals
out there, Leslie Nope, and uh yeah, the this unofficial
(04:56):
holiday that she has launched. I do like the idea,
you know, like all the holidays we have, uh. Currently
have been through you know, the boomer machine, where it's
all just like as profitable as it possibly can be.
So like to have unofficial holidays that aren't like designed
(05:17):
to make money. The corporations have begun to. Yeah, so

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.
