As always, we have included a "closing hymn" for this mini-solo episode. This week we have Pastor Troy, with his stirring song, "Lyin' Bout Her Crib." His music offers more than just beats and rhythm, it tells stories that mirror real-life experiences. As we wrap up, remember the powerful ethos of Pastor Troy, he doesn't write raps, he narrates short stories. So, tune in and let the raw, soulful energy of Pastor Troy's music and storytelling captivate you.
Intro song on this episode is entitled "Tinder Bit" by Lee Carleton Smith.
Thank you so much for your continued love and support!

Oh no, gaby, take a phone ride.
No, you got a share.
Riding cold tails, see, thatain't my way of life.
So I hopped up off the porch inthe middle of the night All
(00:24):
respect to Steve, that aint theslightest slight.
It was time for me to leave.
Already Knew that he was rightwhen he said Hit the door,
grabbed my shit up off the floorand I put it down the road and
I kept it down low.
I felt abandoned and alone onthat, a ball of stone With
nowhere to turn, cause I had toleave home.
So I moved up north and wentback to school, started lining
up my ducks, quit acting thefool.
Seven months later I was makingthe move Down to New Orleans
(00:47):
where I found you.
And now we hit together and wetalkin' bout forever.
Only known you for three monthsand, girl, we met on Tinder.
I ain't your baby daddy and herbirthday in December.
Having said all that, i'maleave your ass where it's at.
Hoping snow.
Hard feelings.
It was good while it lasted,glad you found a man and your
child's not a bastard.
Better him than me.
I shoulda ran away faster, butyou felt like home.
Yo mama did you wrong, treatedyou like shit, girl.
(01:09):
You barely had a chance.
I'm happy you survived and Ihope you understand we can't see
each other, but I'll be yourbiggest fan.
I gots to move on without youin my plans.
You cried and you screamed whenI cut you off and it cut me
(01:39):
down deep to watch you drive off.
Had to do what's best for me andyou baby girl.
She got attached to me and itfucked up my world.
I didn't know who I was and Iwas broke as a joke, only 24,
livin' on a prayer and some hope, and tried my best to not smoke
dope.
You thought I was the one fromthe jump and it showed.
Your daughter said she loved me, she was three years old.
You followed her lead.
Then I knew I had to go, chasedmy dreams, seen new things, not
(02:03):
get caught stuck in between Abeautiful woman and her three
year old girl, cause I knew damnwell I couldn't give y'all the
world.
So I packed my bags.
Then I left the city and Iblocked you on my phone.
That didn't sit well with me.
So I called up my dog and hesaid he didn't feel me, said
play or move on.
Get the fuck up at your fillers.
You got a pimp strong.
Fuck a hoe and chase a milli.
Don't fall in love and guardyour fillers.
(02:25):
Get some blue benches and acoupe with no sillet and a watch
on your wrist with some ice tag.
Listen, i'ma put you on game.
Just take notes and listen.
You learned your lesson.
Don't chase a hoe with children.
Oh, so red, get me to the frontrun.

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.
