Four of the roses on Internshohn in your morning shall
we want you to be in a healthy, happy relationship. When
you think something is off, there really is no worse feeling,
and you can sit there in your mind wander and
we can try to pull the bandy off for you
with war the roses free good morning. Hey guys, I
appreciate you, and especially when I feel in the basket
(00:26):
bug and I can only imagine what's going through your mind.
Let's get into this. You and Matt have been together
how long?
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Just under about a year okay, and.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Been living with each other for how long?
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Brand new month?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
And that's kind of where this whole narrative starts, because
you and your email you mentioned you're a little bit
apprehensive about moving in, but he was really like, this
is the next step. We need to do this right away.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Yeah, And it's not like I needed much convincing because
I'm absolutely in love with him.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
But we both have dogs.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
I work from home because I'm fully remote. He has
really long hours at his office, and we just saw
how great our dogs got along. And then when he
brought it up to me, I was like, duh, Like
it makes so much sense. Our dogs would get to
play I'm home all the time, I could let them out,
and then of course we save money on the bills
and sure you know that whole YadA YadA, So.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Truly a win win. So you can you left dogs out,
you have a space for your dog. It seemed like
it was makes sense everybody.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Yeah, yeah, and we were both excited about it.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
But this is where it gets odd. Is the last
again live together for a month. You say that he
is almost switched up, almost like you are in position
on him, like you are a burden, even though it's
his idea in the first place.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
So, as of recently, I've noticed a complete shift. He
is staying later at work and doing the whole Oh
yeah we have a late meeting. Oh I'm probably just
gonna grab takeout, have dinner at the office, you know,
things like that. And then when he is here, I
feel like I'm just a bro. Like I feel he's
just like on his cell phone all the time. Like
(02:13):
we'll be watching TV together, which is like our quality time,
and I'll be like, babe, what do you.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Want to watch?
Speaker 3 (02:18):
And He's like, whatever you want and he's just like
deep into his phone.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Can I just say real quick because he imagines the
email but him staying to have dinner at the office. Yeah,
that's weird because this should be like the fun time
of like we just moved in and like.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
GE's come home see your significant others.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Like he's literally putting time in a patting to see you.
Almost like he's delaying come back to see you.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Okay, guys are.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Like making me feel like I'm definitely right about everything. Yeah,
that's exactly. I'm like, this is all backwards. I feel
like I'm some washed up housewife of fifty years when
it should be like, yeah, what do we want to
make for dinner in our crop pop? The weather is
starting to get cool, you know yeah, and holiday decorating
(03:02):
and likes this idea.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Okay, let's do this, Brie. Well, if sos CAF and
the Flower Company off you, the roses obviously should go
to you girlfriend of a year. If they dealt, we'll
get some answers for you.
Speaker 5 (03:13):
Okay, Okay, wore the roses.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Now, you're fine. Just over three minutes an intern Johnny
Morny Show wore the roses on intern John in your
morning show. Brie, let me recap this quickly. You and
Matt been dating for about a year, living together for
about a month. The moving in was a hymn idea,
he had said. Essentially, you know you work from home,
he works long office hours. You both have dogs. It
(03:39):
make more sense because you could see each other more,
all circle up, the dogs out and this seemed to
be a benefit kind of both ways. That's fair, right, Yeah,
but you noticed that since he moved in, it's almost
like he has acted like you are a burden, almost
like he's acting like you force his hands, so to speak.
And he is actually stayed late at the office, even
(04:01):
sometimes having dinner at work instead of coming home to you.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Yes, and it sounds even worse when you say it. Yeah,
this is all.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
And then I want to bring up we were talking
about this during the song. I do think by itself
not much, but given the whole state of where we're at,
can you explain the TikTok that you saw on his phone?
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Yeah, so this is kind of what sealed the deal
and made me want to call you guys. But he
was like, hey, I got to show you this funny
TikTok or whatever, and this was like earlier last week,
and and I was like, oh, cool. Yeah, and I'm like, great,
he's engaging with me, right, Like I was just happy
if he wanted to like talk to.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Me, right because I was just feeling so weird.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
But anyway, he like opened his phone and it opened
up to some video about how to hide his cheating.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
That's phone opened up, like if you're listening to an
audiobook and you get in the car and.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
It starts like the audio book, you know, which he was.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Obviously we're looking at something.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Yeah, other side of the koine. The algorithm does suggest
random things, so it could just be like a fluke,
although like give it everything. Okay, I said, okay, so
let's do this. We'll call that well off from the flowers.
They should obviously go to you. If they go to you,
we put them on hold. See what you want to dude,
they go somewhere else because some answers for you. Okay, okay,
(05:26):
one second, try to get them.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Mom.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
I think that like it was his idea to move in.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Yeah, yeah, while you actually like Annoise, that's weird. Hello,
I'm calling from Matt.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
Hi.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Hi. My name is Ca. I'm calling you from a
new flower shop or local downtown. We're trying out some
new marketing before the holidays. Sorry, I'm sorry THEA and THEA.
I'm calling you from a new flower shop. We're just
trying to offer like once a week a local a
free bouquet roses, just hoping that you know, with that
in person marketing, that you'll come back to us. No
(06:04):
credit cards needed, nothing like that. I'm not even going
to know your credit card information whatsoever. It's just a
great way to get our product out there so that
hopefully you want to come try out this new flower shop.
Speaker 6 (06:16):
Is that the things that sounds weird but really cool.
It sounds like experimed to me. Usually something sounds too
good to be true. It usually is I mean, I don't.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Know how my number, Yeah, so I got from Google
for Google Business and everything. So just give us local
you know, area codes of code for this number. But sorry,
my brother keeps talking to me. But so basically, it's
just hoping that you'll come back to us instead of
seeing like an Instagram ad because you'll probably skip through that.
But if you actually get to try out the product
for free, and luckily right now we can afford to
(06:47):
do just like one a week. It has helped get
more people in the door before at the holidays. I
know it definitely sounds like a scam and I hate
talking on them, so I can't.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
As well, And why not if it's free?
Speaker 4 (06:59):
Okay, So I'm just gonna make you a profile in
case you do end up coming back, just to support
your local economy, you know, instead of like you know,
those nationwide flower shops. So who do you want to
send them to? I just need like a first name,
and we'll go down this list.
Speaker 5 (07:13):

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.
