Episode Transcript
Hey earlier, did you ever say what your second favorite
Christmas song was?
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Yeah? The one about the baby?
Speaker 1 (00:06):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah, the one that tried to get canceled.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Yeah right, made me like it even more.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
The stories we love.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
California based burger chain, the giant In and Out Burgers,
has banned the ordered number sixty seven to avoid the
mass hysteria from young people that has been going on
all year long in their stores.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
So the whole six to seven trend.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
God caught off, caught on, and lasted for the better
part of a year. Parents are sick of it. I'm
for sure sick of it all right. It just rolled
my eyes. But the kids aren't letting it go. And
what's happening is and I've seen videos of people gather.
Teenagers will gather in an In and Out Burger and
wait until whoever order has ordered number six seven, until
(00:51):
that order gets called, and then they go nuts.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
This is what it sounds like. It seven.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Well, yeah, taking sixty seven hours for them, So whenever
we're taking orders, they go sixty six to sixty eight
because of.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
People like you.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
People like you, I think that's a big mistake. In
and Out lean into this it's not gonna last much longer.
It's great on social media. You look like fuddy dotties
for doing this. I say this is a big mistake.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
I don't know, but I think the problem is is
that teenagers are packing in.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
First of all, isn't that the idea of a business.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
But it's putting them over what legally the number of
people they can have in their place, And a lot
of them aren't actually buying anything. They're just there to
wait for the number six seven to scream and yell
and take video, oh, causing problems. Then there's people who
just want to come in and get a burger and
sit down and not be make it feel like they're
at a rock concert because the kids screaming at the
(01:51):
number six seven.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Yeah, I still think you just put out it's going
to go away soon enough. And all those people that
you don't let do it, and maybe they say I'm
never going to in and out burger again.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I don't know. It made me like in an out
burger a little bit more. Am I a fuddy daddy?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Oh yes you are. You do have fuddy doddy qualities.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
I want quiet when I'm out in public.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
You want quiet everywhere.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
I know, I very don't. I don't like loud screaming.
I don't.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
I just want people to act right, just do it right,
Just act right, do it right.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Have some nutricial and yeah, some home training.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
That is the story. We love now. I wanted in
an out burgerh I love how the they just put it.
It's a little diaper, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Yeah, remember that night that I was so hungry and
I was driving home eating it, and I took the
wrapper off, but there's also still a piece of deli
paper on it.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
And I ate half the deli paper. I was so hungry.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Stay with us, we got more coming up. One O
three point one Austin.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Hey.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
It's sandy and the holidays are a magical time of year,
and this year you can add a little holiday magic
of your own. Give holiday scratch tickets with top prizes
from five hundred to two hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Give the gift of infinite possible abilities. Give holiday scratch
tickets from the Texas Lottery TikTok lives. It's a big deal.
There's a lot of people out there streaming themselves doing
(03:09):
any number of things. Some people just sitting there, you
know what I mean, and talking to the people on
the other side of it. Some people are doing things
like there's a guy that I followed that he tries
like ricochet shots, like bouncing things off and into a
thimble and he'll do.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
It a million times before he finally gets it.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
But at least he's doing something right. And but here's
the thing about it. I watch these tiktoks, I'm like, hey,
that'd be kind of fun to do, to be on
TikTok Live to do stuff like that. But then I
go most of these people look like idiots there. Why
are you here? What are you doing? You know what
I mean? Like, I just don't get it. And you
(03:50):
see people just standing at the edge of a swimming
pool and.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Just just standing there, and yeah, are.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Standing there talking to thinking, always asking you to double
tap the screen and like and.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Follow and all this crazy standing there.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
No, you know what, shame on the people who do that,
not the people who watch it and support it.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
That's weird.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
What would you do if you were going to go
to tick a thing that we could TikTok live the show, right?
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Is it going to be that interested in that? You know,
it's like you need to be It seems like you've
got to be doing something. Yeah, like and some people
are real good at it. You know. There are a
lot of workout people working out which I got to
work out that he is. Get my brain around the
vanity of setting up a camera and a gym, you
know what I mean, like in a gold gym or
(04:40):
Crunch Fitness or something, setting your camera up on a tripod.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
There was a story not too long ago about a
woman who did that, not because she was making videos
to show people how to work out. She was just
live streaming herself working out like you're talking about, and
she got irritated because people kept walking back behind her
in her shot and she was it's in a public
gym where they also had memberships, right, And some guy
(05:04):
was like, lady, get out of here.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
There are a lot of young women that don't have
jobs that are eight to five because they're all over
this TikTok and they they all have like plunging necklines.
Do you think here's one that doesn't.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
You know what I mean, that's realize that people can
see their cleavand.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
I think their mama needs to tell them.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I mean it's like somebody should tell them.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah, but I guess that's what rosa. Just kids sitting
in their bedrooms just streaming talking to well.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
I mean it's a little bit.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Are they trying to make money? That's what I'm one.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
I don't know, but it's a little bit like our
sixteen year old daughters. She'll be sitting at her desk
doing homework on a computer and she'll have a FaceTime
open with her friend who's at her house. She's doing homework,
and there will be long periods of time that they
don't look at each other or communicate with each other.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
They're just doing their stuff.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Then everyone's smile, they'll say something or but it's just
they're just there like with each other, looking at each other,
doing nothing.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
I get that, but I mean you're you're streaming out
to people you don't even know. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Yeah, it's a little bit different, but kind of the same.
I guess. I don't think it's just I just it's
a thing, and it's imagine that it's a thing. I
don't get.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Well, stop doing it, then Sandy turn off to TikTok.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Yeah I probably should. I think you've got a story
A little bit later on about the banning of social media.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Yeah, Australia is not playing around.
Speaker 1 (06:27):

Oh, I never watched it. You said you tried to
watch it and was kind of slow.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, I was super interested in it, and then I
watched about the first thirty forty five minutes. I just
could not get there. I couldn't. That's what I call it.
When I can't get into a show like The Wire,
which I've tried to watch one hundred times. Everyone says
it's so great.

Viruses can catch viruses. The first virus that infected other
viruses was found in two thousand and eight. So viruses
are inside you make an other viruses sick and killing them.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Give us a break. That's how they that's how they mutate.
I guess, huh, I guess.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
So yeah, just weird to think there's a virus inside
of you. Yeah, I mean yeah. Not as bad as
a tapeworm.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Oh god, a tapeworm. I remember it was, you know,
like everybody had.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Something as a little kid that was like the local
horror story. Yes, that in any sleepover. That's the story
that got told for summer even a reason. Paris tapeworms
were one of the ones that got from my child,
parasitic tapeworm.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Okay, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
And how that you got them in an out of

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Finally, Cared don't care to know? Something pretty amazing about Wikipedia?
I mean sure, so you know that Wikipedia is written
by the public. There is no qualifying, there's no nothing
to anybody can edit it. Anyone can, and over half
of the edits on Wikipedia are made by less than
one percent of its users. Listen to this. One guy
named Stephen Prewett is responsible for creating thirty three thousand
(09:26):
articles and making more than six million edits. In fact,
he's made at least one edit to one third of
all the articles. There's a guy with a lot of
time on his hand.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
He had a lot of time and a lot of
lot to say.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
He does, my goodness, and I don't think he gets it. Yeah,
if you go to Wikipedia right now, they're hitting me
up for money. I was like, here's a dollar, leave
me alone.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
You donate a dollar.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
It's a dollar to stop seeing their pop up. 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.
