Speaker 2 (00:53):
Delicious thank you. In case it wasn't completely obvious, this
is an episode with spoilers, So if you haven't watched
this episode of And Just Like That, go watch it
and come back. I feel like I want to start
in a completely random place, which is I want to
ask the two of you, have you ever been to
a con a convention of any kind? And if so,
(01:14):
Witch cons Yes.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
And actually I have been. I'm guessing well, I know
that on the show they were at some random hotel.
I feel like, realistically, this probably would have happened at
the Javits Center.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
There's no other place.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
I have been to conventions there. I've never been to
something that was like so specifically female as this convention.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Was not female. You know it's kind of female. It was, Oh,
let's be clear, it was explicitly female, not for women.
It was for females.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Phoebe. Have you done a lot of cons in your life.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
I've been to like radio conferences and like.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
And like journalism stuff, So I don't really think we
need to talk to talk about that.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
I've been to multiple podcasting conventions. I've been too many, same.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
And you probably were loving it, no hate it.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
I mean I learned a lot. I'm not gonna lie.
I did actually educate myself. But I've also been to
DragCon like three or four times. I've never paid for it.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
I was always not a place I ever want to go.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I was tabling there. I was selling merch for my
other podcast, my other former podcast podcasts who shall not
be named. And then I've also been to that international
whale Conservationist convention that I've talked about before, right, and
what yesa whales? Wait wait, Phoebe, Okay, maybe I haven't
talked about this. When I was like in college, I
(02:56):
was living in London and I went by myself, took
a train to Brighton to go to an international whale
conservationist convention where I was the only person who was
like above the age of fifteen and under the age
of fifty and oh my god, can you communicate with
the orcas? No, but I did go can you try?
I did go to a seminar.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Can you give us a whale sound?
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Yeah? Oh my god, carline, Paul Chuck, is that you
I walked right into that one. I did phebe I
did actually go to an orca. I went to a
seminar from an ORCA specialist and named ingridvisor, and she
did help free the actual willy.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Wow. Okay, okaya, to back to ind just like that.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Maybe this is what the Virgin's page pay for. Okay,
this is this is still on topic.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Maybe like a way to structure this is we should
go like character by character and talk about each of
their structured Can we just celebrate that Jay and Miranda
broke up? Oh yeah, Okay. The big headline of this
episode is the evil has been.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Defeated and Chay and Miranda broke up finally.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
But but but I do I do want to give
a little like asterisk to that because I think the
the show was very deliberate in giving Chay a plotline
outside of Miranda. In this episode with their interactions with
(04:32):
Carrie as a way to sort of warn us that
just because Chay and Miranda are broken up, that does
not mean Chay is going away.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
No, that's what I was gonna say. Yeah, the asterisk
is that Chay is still a series regular, like gonna
be in every episode, probably still.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
And you know, like there their interactions with Carry at
Widow Conn. It wasn't horrible, but I still don't believe
that Carrie would want to be friends with this person.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
No, it's kind of giving what the show is giving,
which is like this person is adding to Carrie's diversity quota,
Like Carrie probably has no trans friends, probably has no
Latin friends, Like I think she just thinks Chay is interesting.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
I don't even believe that though, Like I I just
don't see a world in which Carrie Bradshaw, the most
like self centered monster of a person, would want to
hang out with this non binary podcaster.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Actually, okay, here's here's something. Let me actually side with
Michael Patrick King really briefly.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
Oh no, not here, Patreon.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I'm just kidding. But there is a thing that happens
rose when you are paired with a work wife or
a work they them and like you just and yes,
and you are bonded whether you like it or not. Girl,
And god are we carry? Have you about microphone away? Rose?
(06:08):
You and I bonded against our will, like we were
in the same workplace even though we didn't like, we
didn't ask for any of this. And yeah, I have
red hair.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
So I'm kind of Miranda too.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
And now like we own a business together, and we are,
you know, emergency contacts sometimes And like, I don't know,
have you ever picked me up from the airport? What
is that thing that people would have friends do?
Speaker 3 (06:33):
You've never know that I've ever I've never picked he
up from the airport, but I absolutely would. My mom
didn't pick me up from the airport last night. I
had to take an uber home.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
She was tired and doesn't like driving. Yeah,

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.
