Speaker 2 (00:03):
It's Fleechborn and Hayley's a little bit of pod. Welcome
to a little bit of pod now, guys, I, in
the heat of the moment, have left some customer feedback.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Okay, some reviewing recently, so I have been.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Giving positive feedback. We're you.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I recently purchased something online and then the next day
I got an email saying how did you feel about
the customer service person? And I thought the customer service
was great. The person I dealt with on the phone
because I had to follow something up after I bought
it and followed up with the person on the phone.
They were amazing. The thing that I purchased was of
great value. But the thing that really annoyed me because
(00:40):
that during up a couple of times, was the company
that you call here in New Zealand because maybe they're
in Australia as well. And I know this is rich
coming from me, but the voice was really horrible.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Oh give us, give us a performance.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
It was an Australian girl and she was like, welcome
to blah blah blah. And then because it was a
they had to explain a lot of things.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
You had to put up quite a lot. I had
to put it out.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
It was quite a lot of really intense, over the
top nasal Australian blah blah blah blah blah. Yeah, and
there was no way to skip it. And I was
and then I, you know, you're pressing through the options
and and it was just I don't know why. It
graded me so much that when this email came the
next day, do you have any gestions? I said, I
would probably revoice the nasal Australian voice with something more
(01:30):
palatable and easy to listen to.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Why that actress, she's got a scratchy little loss.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Do you know what it sounded like? Is, Hey, who
in the office wants to do this?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Lovely lord? Why can you do it?
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Casey?
Speaker 3 (01:47):
You're hard?
Speaker 1 (01:47):

love it when you can hear they're doing a voiceover
and it's it's Tracy from reception welcome to something or other.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Press one and.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I've written down and have written down, well they have
to say any and for your other options the shop three.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
I don't know if it's changed because I haven't driven
into the airport car park for a while. At Auckland airport,
but they had a voice overs like please take your
tack at play plates now so I don't think they
do that. But you used to press the button it
would give you a tack and say.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Please take your carking ride. No, it was that please
take your.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Punk and you just imagined like overseas tourists and like
r yeah, anyway, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
I felt bad, like a job voice artist.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah, just I don't know you have.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
To ring up this.
Speaker 2 (02:53):

a bit softer. You're like, hello, welcome.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
To sit in pleadicle center.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Please your ticket? Yes, hey, and it's coming through that
I've got a compliment to pay.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
I can't believe we've got this far into talking about voices,
and I haven't covered the fact that whilst I was
an a Yeah, as previously covered, I went through the
KFC drive through. Yeah, and because the girls wanted some
popcorn chicken and my princesses get what they want. Yeah,
because that's my princesses, and I am the King. And
I pulled up don't say.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
That, don't say that. I pulled up to the auto box.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Yeah, and I and the most angelic voice said, place
your order when you're ready, and I said, two popcorn
chicken mediums please, and they said.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Said two medium popcorn chickens. But that's that's my two
medium popcorn chickens, not two popcorn chickens mediums.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
I went, two popcorn chickens, no medium.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
I think Varne says it the right way because you
have to select popcorn chicken and then then the size.
I'll accept that, so I never that could be completely wrong.
I see, is this one of those AI order boxes?
And they're like no one answered too fast, I said,
but it's got a lovely like his voice was, because
you know, you usually pull up to those things and
it's like when I'm ready or don't even a wad
(04:17):
or so then I pull up and this lovely lady opens.
Speaker 3 (04:22):

box spoke was at you, and she said yes.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
I said, you've got the loveliest voice and your I
said it was really.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
I asked as the girls if they thought it was AI,
because it was so well enunciated.

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.
