Speaker 3 (00:08):
Johnny, Well, actually, I'm Johnny.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
That's what Johnny.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
That's we're going to tell the boys about.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Johnny Cocker, Johnny Fever and I am burning up in here, journey.
You know, it's funny. It's Friday. I know it's Friday.
I can see that it's Friday. It just doesn't feel
like a Friday.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
You're right, I agree, Like, I just don't know what
day it is.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Yeah, when you get this, especially when Christmas is midweek, Yeah,
it totally screws you up as far as what day
it is.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
It is Friday. Welcome in Johnny and Val recapping the
show for Friday, December nineteenth, the three hundred and fifty
third day of the year. Twelve days remain, just two
days until wintertime, so it's not even wintertime. Although walking
across the parking lot this morning.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
It was like the tundra.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
The wind was just unbelieved.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Yes, I had trouble walking you were because it was
blowing against me, and.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
For me it was blowing. I was like a sale.
I was like blowing me.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
Torsing you.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
It's like wow, that's weird. Six days until Christmas, ten
days to our three WUS holiday blood drive. By the way,
you know, we had over one hundred people sign up
last year. We're nowhere near that, so we're really looking
for people to sign up. So if you're listening to
the podcast, you're a you're a three WS hard. Yes,
we really need your help, so sign up at by

(01:35):
talent dot org slash three WUS. I've got some cool
prizes journey ticket. It's a five hundred dollars grand prize.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
And even if you weren't getting prizes, you're doing a
good thing. You're saving lives. I've said that many times
in the past. You know, different our stations promote blood drives.
I'm not smart enough to be a doctor, a warrant
technician or anything, but I can help say someone's life
by giving blood.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Now, they go through about six hundred pints of blood
every day and are where we are. We're at two hundred.
We're about a third where we ought to be.

Speaker 3 (02:12):
Wow, I know my dad had surgery once. They had
to postpone it because they didn't have the blood.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Oh jeez. Yeah, and that's the situation we're in here.
Ye before the pandemic, we were close to where we
needed to be, and then since the pandemic, we're nowhere
near where we ought to be. And what's surprising is
the younger generation isn't familiar with blood drives because after

(02:38):
the the pandemic, you know, because a lot of schools
are having blood drives and fewer schools were having them,
and so there's this this whole population that is unfamiliar
with blood drives.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Yeah, well we need to get back to doing those.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Great Today's Holly Day, look for an Evergreen Day. National
Emo Day. I have no what emo music is that

hard Candy Day. When we were kids, we used to
have like what it was a card heart attack and

(03:16):
it was always like cinnamon. Yeah, yeah, it was something
really strong, and I think I told you on the era.
I have a theory that my mother made it one
batch in like nineteen seventy three and she just would
just dish it out every year because you could smell
like like clove.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
And you used to dust it with powdered sugar.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
Oh yeah, it was everywhere. Yeah, and like every once
in a while, like I'll try it and you're like,

Speaker 3 (09:49):
For any parent who has ever fibbed to your kids
during the holidays. You are in good company. Many moms
and dads have told their kids white lies during this
time of year. The parenting site Scary Mommy ask parents
to share their go to holiday lies. These were some
of the most entertaining, and some of these are good.
The elf on the shelf didn't get our change of

(10:10):
address yet. Maybe they'll get it by next December.

Speaker 2 (10:12):
Oh oh see, my kids are too old for that.
I missed that whole elf.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
Oh yeah, yeah, I wasn't a thing when I was
a kid. I told my kids we weren't allowed to
have an elf since we celebrate both Hanukkah and Christmas.
I told my daughter that Sanna didn't need to send
an elf to keep an eye on her because he
knew she was so well behaved. Wow, dad's allergic to
elf glitter. So Santa can't send an elf on the

(10:38):
shelf to our house.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Buddy. Our elf doesn't.

Speaker 3 (10:43):
Move on Saturday night due to their new union contract.
Sanna doesn't bring big things or live pets because they're
unsafe on the sleigh. My kids are only.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Alana doesn't want cookies, hes, pizza, and beer.

Speaker 3 (11:06):
My kids are only allowed to ask Santa for three
things because Santa is old and can't carry more than that.
For all those kids, Santa won't deliver presents when your
toys are scattered all over the floor. We buy wrapping
paper and stalking stuffers because Santa is on a budget.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
That's funny.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
I told my son.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
The hospital gives all new parents the phone numbers of Santa,
so I can call and text anytime I need to
nice this one. I like. We changed our friend's name
to Santa in my phone, and he changed his picture,
so we phoned him for a very convincing chat about behavior.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Oh that's awesome, that's hilarious. That's so good. Ah.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
The longer you sleep in on Christmas morning, the more
present Santa will have time to put under the tree.

Speaker 5 (11:55):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (11:56):

The Burden

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.
