Most of you can't even find it on the map,
but you've all become self appointed experts. By the way,
uh Medicaid Mills re member, oxy Conton still out there
oxy coding. Remember in those Appellachian areas? How much did
(00:44):
we get ripped off full by the Purdue family? You know,
the Sackler family. What do they make? Billions and billions
on money? How many Americans died? Anybody go after Oh
that's right, they didn't go to jail, They just had
to pay funds. Hmmm, Jesse, if you're gonna go after
the Somalians, I'm all for you, but don't stop there.
(01:08):
There's a lot of other people who have ripped us
off over the years, and as a result, people who
have died. Right the Purdue Company, the sack Of family.
How many movies were made about that? I think we're
gonna talk about in the next hour. No, no, no,
Always question authority. Always don't just repeat what is being
(01:28):
said to you without saying. Wait, the Simalians aren't the
only ones ripping us off in our own tri state area,
New York, New Jersey, Kinnectic and beyond. How many religious
and secular groups have ripped us off since nineteen seventy five. Oh,
I'm gonna mention Nacy because is Mark Simone's show, and
it'll have to deal with it. But you know what

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Or thank you for taking my car? I heard us.
Happy New Year, everybody. I wanted to say Spence Abraham
was George Debbie Bush's Secretary of Energy and he was
a Muslim, but he raised a valid point. And for
everybody who is a liberal or who's Jewish who voted
for communist Mandami, I really hope you guys will one
(02:21):
day look in the mirror. With that being said, I
would highly recommend you wear your regal robe and show
up as prince at this RSVP who has a block
party in January. With that being said, I would recommend
bringing botox Bondie. She likes the limelight. She's not very
good at her job, and she's quite incompetent, and it's
(02:43):
a twofer. Maybe she can pick up the millions of
documents on her desk that are still in New York.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Oh oh, we're gonna mention the Epstein files. And apparently
what pushed Madri Taylor Green over the edge from being
the number one supporter of President Donald Trump is when
he was screaming at her on the phone and it
was amplified. Her whole staff heard it. You gotta stop, Marjorie,
(03:10):
this involves some of my friends. Well, we know that
nobody's implicating you, Donald Trump president. But we know that again,
and it goes back to my arguments yesterday with the
Wall Street Journal. He who has the gold makes the rules.
Do you believe that I don't? By the way, what
(03:31):
is the origin of that? We know what the origin
is of the rule that I that I live and
die by many of you the Golden Rule do unto
others as you would have them do unto you. But
the masters of the universe, you always think they get
their way. Now let's go if we can right here
(03:51):
to Adamals calling from New Jersey. Your turn to be heard?
He had seven ten wr.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Good morning, Curtis. I just want to bring up that
subject about Somalia, Land and wondering maybe you can put
all the dots together for this thing that's going on
now between Samalia, Samalia, Land, Minnesota, Yahoo, if you can
put all the things together there and let me know
(04:19):

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Oh, hey, look, I'm gonna do that, because all right.
Speaker 3 (04:26):

journalists ever been out there. Still no kidding.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Well, I tell you this much.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
My son met you up in Harlem. He used to
live up there for five years. I used to go
there on the weekends, the best swings in town.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Oh, I know exactly what you're talking about there. But
I don't eat wings anymore. I don't eat meat anymore.
I don't eat chicken, that fowl, not managing that fish.
I am a vegetarian, believe it or not. Having one
many international gastronomical eating contests over the year, having finished
(05:06):
third place in the hot Dog eating contests and Nathan's
famous in nineteen ninety six, Yep, no more. I can
thank my wife Nancy for that who herself is a
vegetarian and I am for a number of reasons, including
health reasons. Some of you should try it out there,
(05:30):
by the way, in preparation for Somlia talk that most
of you all seem to be now self appointed experts,
like a lot of our officials. I think we should
take a David Bowie song. Think of that? Is he
David Bowie? Because who did he end up marrying one
of the most drop dead gorgeous women of all time?
(05:50):
Imon Right, whenever you're you just one name like chare Emon,
you know he you're a superstar. She was from Mogadishu.
Oh yeah, ever, Satchi Calvin Kline Tree steps up. They
think she was married to that basketball player Spencer Haywood
before that, who never went to college. Oh wait, back
(06:12):
to the phones we go here. Let's go to Vinnie
who was calling from Ozone Park. Your turn to be
heard here at seven to ten? W O Wavin chenz Rendy.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Okay, yeah, the kut criers go show up. If you
don't get an RSVP, go all the more reason to go. Okay,
bring Scott Lebato with you, bring a crew. And why
the Americans flag do it.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
That'll be very interesting. Will an American flag be flown
at any of these inaugural events? So we talk about
the private event that's in the old City Hall subway
station at twelve midnight when the ball drops. Then the
(06:59):
public event is wearing in by burning the out the
Cacca sanders in front of City Hall, and then obviously
the block party. You think there will be any American flags, Frong,
I don't think so. Palestinian flags yeah, other flags yeah,
Scott Levetto, Yeah, the relentless patriot, that'll be good. But see,
(07:19):
I'm used to bowguarding places. I'm used to just showing
up and they say who are you? Say, I'm Curtie Sliewer.
I don't care who you are. Get the hell out
of here. That's happened to me too, and they thrown
me right out on my dupa, my tuchas, kick me
right to the curb. Are you ready? As he is
studying on Somalia, you know, at one time an Italian
(07:41):
province under Benito Mussolini, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Libya, Somalia. A lot
of guys in Somalia, whether they're here or over there,
they're still named Vincens, Minnie and Sal although their last
name is Mohammed. Oh yeah, I got a lot to
teach you, a lot to teach you about Somalia, which
is in the news and right for me. So I'm
(08:03):
just asking all of you, good, we're going after these
people who are ripping our money off tax stocks. Why
are we gonna stop here because we don't like them? Well,
maybe they don't share our politics. Are we going to
go after people who share our politics and rip us
off even worse than what you are witnessing now in
(08:27):

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.
