It was actually pretty close when you hit me up,
just getting a drink at the Hawker.

You know, I liked that place. You were there by yourself. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (06:10):
Right?
Speaker 1 (06:13):
So what brought you here in the industry entertainment or porn? Yes?
Speaker 6 (06:23):
Yeah, I switch jobs. I was working for the Census,
and when that was over, I tried my handed drawing storeboards,
and then I thought I could get more work by
being in La.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
Is that where you throw up all the shots before
they go actually shoot the thing?
Speaker 8 (06:38):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Yeah, yeah, that's exactly it. You want to stop here?
Actually I like the view, you know, I mean too?
Should we say?
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Right over there?
Speaker 6 (07:20):
Uh so.
Speaker 7 (07:30):
I actually met you before at the Hawker standing all
alone with those teeny little padphones on. Oh yes, that
that does sound like me. I asked you what you
were listening to, and it was some obscure punk rock
(07:53):
band from Pico Rivera.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Where did this happened a few weeks ago?
Speaker 8 (08:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (08:01):
I did. I mean you looked familiar. You remember me? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (08:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
You said sorry and then you ran away. I didn't
run away. Felt so bad? Why because I gave off
a really awful I'm not interested vibe. Mm hmm it
was really rude. Mmm, you kind of were. I'm so sorry.
(08:33):
I was having the shittiest week, just broke up with someone.
Oh I'm sorry to hear that. Listen. If it were
any other night, I would have bought you a drag.
Speaker 8 (08:52):
No.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Really, you're actually the first person that I've gone out
with since him. So it's just like a date, is
it not.
Speaker 6 (09:09):
I haven't been on a real date in like five years.
My god, it kind of makes sense. That's why everything
was so awkward before.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Well thanks, no, no, I sorry I mean that in
a really, really cute kind of way. Okay, Mmmm, it's
(09:44):
so beautiful out here. Yeah, it's I kind of want
to just keep sitting here, you know, and enjoyed of you.
(10:04):
Me too.
Speaker 8 (10:14):
This memory will always stick with me. It's in this
moment where I felt alone for the very last time.
In two years. I will move in with Rusty. He
will make me pour over coffee every morning. I will
fall asleep on his lap watching reruns of ninety sitcoms.
(10:37):
We will fight occasionally, and then it will become more frequent.
One of our arguments will escalate and we will break up,
but it won't last long, and everything will go back
to the way it was. We will eventually start having
(10:58):
less sex, but it won't matter because we just like
being around each other, talking to each other, sitting in
each other's silence. He will eventually go before me, and
I will miss him. I will cry every day, and
(11:19):
after a while I won't cry.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
As much.
Speaker 8 (11:23):
Because I will remember this moment and play it again
in my head, because even without him, I am not alone.
In this moment, I am sitting on top of Los
Angeles and I see everyone, I hear all of the
people who are going through it, just like me, who
(11:43):
have been through the hurt.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
I think I was just freaking out because I'm scared.
Who cares? It's salmon.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
I wanted to eat it with you.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
I should really fucking move.
Speaker 8 (11:56):
I really fucking should through the mishunter standings.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
And you were never supposed to find out.
Speaker 8 (12:03):
Oh that's supposed to make me feel better.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
You think you can just keep people like shit? What
people like me?
Speaker 8 (12:09):
You think you're so much better?
Speaker 2 (12:11):
My work is valuable no matter what you think.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
I'm sorry, but I'll no like I'm not sorry. So dude,
you straight up one behind my back? Why would you
do that?
Speaker 8 (12:20):
And the choice of living and loving one another. I'm
going to be a father.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Ye're having a baby. I think about him at least
once a week. Like that's nuts, right? Like damn ju well,
it is so stupid. I love you, Rusty, I always will. Okay,
(12:59):
what are you thinking about? Nothing? This is really nice?
(13:28):
What are you thinking? And how I was thinking the
same thing. I want to head back down? Can we
stay here a little longer? Sure?
Speaker 5 (13:52):

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.
