Jersey and Amanda jam Nation. She's one of the breakout
stars of the award winning show Orange Is a New Black,
and now Yale Stone is taking on a very different role.
This show looks incredible. A new six part drama series
called One Night, a gripping story of three women whose
bond was all but destroyed by the traumatic events of
(00:21):
One Night twenty years ago. It sounds so juicy. Yale
is here with us now, Hollage.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Years well, and the story is just so great because
this one revolves around because there's been a few stories
about Australians, small Australian towns and this long past mystery.
But one of the characters played by col de Silva,
she's an author and she finally gets up with this book.
But it's supposed to be fictitional.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
But it's not, but not at all. Turns out she's
not quite as creative as she's made out. Yeah, she's
written about their lives and she hasn't necessarily got permission
to do it. And I guess the really thing element
about that is they all remember things differently as we do,
you know, memory shifts, especially over this twenty year period
(01:08):
that she's looking back on and they're furious. The other
two friends are furious.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
And also even though, as she said, well this is
my story as well, but others are saying, well, you
share the story, you didn't have permission to the story.
Who has permission to tell the story? Interesting?
Speaker 3 (01:24):
It's such a fascinating idea and one that I think
our creator, Emily Blue has teased out so beautifully. You
kind of watch it and everyone feels like, oh, I've
been there, you know, at that Christmas lunch where you
know like, no, that wasn't that wasn't you.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
That was me? Yes, so juicy. This series has already
been named the show of the Year by critics, and
looking at the trailer, I just can't get over how
amazing it looks it. I know it looks dark and intriguing,
but was it fun to film? Because there's three amazing women,
three of my face as you obviously, Nicole a Silver,
(02:02):
Jody Whittaker, who of course is the first female doctor
who she's been in broad Church at all these incredible productions,
Black Mirror. How was it hanging out with those two women?
Did you love yourself sick?
Speaker 3 (02:13):
I fully loved myself sick, and I loved them fully
sick too. Such such good women. We are, by coincidence,
all mothers. I had a very young baby on set.
I felt like I had the greatest mother support group
a girl could ever wish for. We were just all
in all having fun and while the material is kind
(02:36):
of challenging and can be a little dark, we laughed
so much right up until action, and then as soon
as cut haven't we laughed again. We loved each other,
we supported each other. It's kind of one of those
environments that produces your best work because you feel safe,
you feel supported.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Jody is an English actress, but her Australian accent. Have
a listened to this, You should have listened to the
gossip Byles here. It's toxic. It's one of the hardest
things to nail.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
How she managed that look, she was really paranoid about it,
And I understand. I've done a few accents over the years, and.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
You're can you just drop into some Brooklyn right.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
No, I'm very expensive if I do afford.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
We were talking to Rose Burn about the American accent
and she was saying the voice coach says around the rocks,
the ragged rascal ran, Oh, that's good as a voice
thing because when you say those words, but with Brooklyn,
I'm walking here.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
That's a great way.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
And look, it's been a long time, like we shot
we shot Oranges in New Black ten years ago, so
it's Laurna is like a friend that I knew for
seven years. And when I had to say goodbye, it
was actually quite strange.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Filling out with yourself. Yeah, a little, a little. I
used to.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
I used to live around the court from the studio
where we shot the show in Queens, and I need
the walk home to get Laura out of my mouth.
Otherwise I would come home and she would still be
there and I would have to actively sort of extricate
myself from the character, which doesn't happen for me all
the time. But Lorna is quite sticky.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Because actors, I'm not saying you're weirdos. Did I say
this because I acted as well. I don't know, have
you heard of fat pizza? But have you fat pizza
versus houses?
Speaker 1 (04:22):
And I just played yourself.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I don't know. I was the premiere of this fair state,
a corrupt one at that, and I had to say infrastructure,
and there you go. I've just broken into characters.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Oh, my gosh, it's like the premiere was right here, but.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
You're about.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Well.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
I can't wait to see this. You can start streaming
one night on Paramount.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Now, thank you and I Before you wrap me up,
I have to say I've listened to you both for
years and news and news, and it's so so lovely
to be in here. I just think, what aren't we
lucky to have like such wonderful people on our ear
waves and much clever folks, And thank you, thank you.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
For I'm so tired, thank you, thank you. That's love
looking drop Arrossie accents now, thank you guy the new

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.
