And when I opened that DM, I was just like
you remembered, why would you do that?

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
It's like kind of like when you ask someone like hey,
how you're doing, and you're just hoping they say I'm good.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
That didn't they walk away their entire life.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
But it's like, oh my god, my dog died. You're
like what, Yeah, my dog died. You wouldn't believe. How
do you got like ten minutes I gotta hear them
sit down? No, well hold on, yeah, so I gotta
tell you about how my dog was hit by a terrorist. Yeah,
Like it's always got to be something like horrible when
you ask that question, then it's always got to be like,
oh yeah, I'll take that. I mean, it's gone down

(03:18):
to like the worst is and I don't know how
bad she gets it. But you know one of our
favorite people, Michelle, who's salesperson here, she's got the Disney tickets, okay.
And then Nicky who runs all of our prizes, she's
got the Universal tickets.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
And people think that we're like and I love that
they do like, and it's the truth. When it comes
to theme parks, we have the tickets. Like, there's no
other radio station that you can listen to that's going
to supply the amount. I mean, hundreds of thousands of
dollars worth of tickets have been given away on the
Joe Show. I don't like to ask Nikki or Michelle

(04:01):

and go.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Oh my god, you go to Disney all the time.
You do all that all the.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Time, which, by the way, I pay for it. If
you see me at any of these things, I've paid
for it. I have not gotten it for free. But
people will say that and then my stupid mouth gets
uncomfortable for some reason, and I feel bad that I'm
experiencing these things and other people aren't, so I immediately.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Go, oh, well, you know, I can always.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
And then they're like, okay, go ask and I'm like, no,
I'm not gonna, Like in my head, I already know
like if you can ask.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Both of that.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
I tended for two days and I never asked.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
I have never ever ever asked them for it. But
to other people, they think I have asked. Raven, you
do the same exact thing.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
Huh yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
So like when somebody's having a hard time, you know,
you say, oh, let me know if you need anything.
Oh yeah, but I've been stabbed way too many times
the back. Like I let this woman move in with me.
She turned into my best friend, you know, and then
she stabbed me in the back, and I just I

(05:08):
can't go through that again. And that was actually the
second person that has done that to me. But like
every time somebody says you know, this, this, this, and
the third and you're like, oh, let me know if
you need anything, who really means that?

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Yeah, you're right, Jed.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
You you say not Ashley, and then you laugh like,
uh do you mean it?

Speaker 5 (05:33):
Yeah, because I'm not going to offer help to you
if I don't mean it. That's how many times, Joe
have we talked about me being like, you really said
you're gonna help that person clean up? Or hey, you
really said you're gonna help that person move and then
the look of sour on my face.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
Remember it was not too long ago when Jed wanted
his neighbor wanted to help him with something at our house,
and he regretted offering his help.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
But I'll still follow that.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Hold On, Terry, come in here real quick, because I
want to see. Let's put Jed to the test and
see if he's actually serious about that he'll offer up
his services and then actually help Terry. Didn't you need
to remove stuff from your place with termites?

Speaker 4 (06:13):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Yeah, said hold on, Jed said that he was going
to help you.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
Yes, did he help you?

Speaker 1 (06:17):
No?

Speaker 2 (06:18):
Okay? Apples and oranges?

Speaker 5 (06:20):
Apples, orange circumstances, my dad I had to take my
dad to go get his car.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
Uh yeah, I talked to your dad. I don't think
that that's true. It is true?

Speaker 2 (06:29):

The Burden

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.
