Kaitling's Entertainer report he's on the Freas Show.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Nicki Minaje is calling those allegations against her by.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
A former employee false and frivolous.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Last week, a man named Brandon Garrett who said he
was Nicky's day to day manager, so the singer smacked
him across the face during a show in Detroit last
year over a prescription that she asked.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Him to pick up. He actually ended up asking.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Someone else to do it because he was busy with
her at the time. Her lawyer said that the singer
never had a complaint served against her and said the
details of the assaults are false. Heathings the lawsuit will
be solved quickly and end in Nicky's favor. Jason, you
were saying to me that you felt like there was
a little more buzz than normal around the Golden Globe Sunday.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Oh yeah, and you were right.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
So the eighty second annual Award show hit ten point
one million viewer Sunday Night, which is a seven percent
increase from last year's show. They were only at like
nine point four million viewers. Now, Sunday's Globes did benefit
from the NFL lead in with CBS having aired the
Chiefs Broncos game directly before your hand, but the ceremony
(01:01):
also aired in competition with NBC's telecasts of the Vikings
Lions game, So I don't know if we can really
say that the bump is what helped the whole situation. Now,
speaking of the Globes, former couple Kate Beckhensale and comedian
Matt Rife were spotted making out at Spago and Beverly
Hills during Netflix's Bash party. They wrote bash, I don't
(01:23):
say bash. I'm gonna not say that ever again. I'm
so sorry. After these apologized that didn't sound like me.
After the Golden Globes on Sunday, I like how they write.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
A spy said they were kissing and being affectionate with
one another.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Her arms were around his neck and his arms and
his hands were around to her waist. Somebody want like yeah,
like somebody wants to make money off this or something.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
I don't know. They were close.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
They saw them kiss, and they're friendly exes, but I
feel like that's.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
A little more friendly than you know, being axes.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
She dated him in twenty seventeen, when she was forty
three and he was.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Twenty one, Hello, Hello.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
They met through a mutual friend, and she's had some
health issues going on. A lot of people have been
wondering what's going on with her. But maybe she's back
on that ride again, I guess. And Wicked director John M.
Chew says that it might be a long wait until
we get that Britney Spears long anticipated biopic or biopic,
whatever you want to say, based on her recent memoir
The Woman in Me. He was also at the Globes
(02:27):
and he said, I'm a huge fan of Brittany. I
have been since I was young, and she was one
of the twelve acts at Trine Auditorium.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
So I want to do her justice, tell her story right.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
But we'll see. We're making it or developing it now.
It's a long road ahead. He also said to Entertainment
tonight on the same thing. She's going to be very involved.
I haven't really started anything fully yet, but she will
be involved. I have ideas I haven't approached, but this
is very early. Do you like him to spearhead this
project for her?
Speaker 5 (02:56):
Do? I think?
Speaker 1 (02:57):
You know?
Speaker 5 (02:57):
Obviously he's high right now. Everything with Wicked, other movies
he's done, So I guess yeah, And it sounds like
it's genuine, like caring vibe from him, Like I feel
like he'll try to involve her, like you said, and
like I don't know, Yeah, I hope she's like down
for it. Like there's still people say that she didn't
even write that book, so I'm like, you know, I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I know it sounds like he cares and is a fan,
which I think is the best bed if it ever
does get made.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
I'm you know, that jewelry line, if you don't buy
anything from that jewelry line, because that's not She's taking
pictures from other jewelry lines and just posting them as

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.
