Episode Transcript
I love talking windows.
And my favorite window guy,
Lyndol Woodruff is joining me here on the program,
Lyndol.
How are you?
Are?
Amazing.
Amazing,
amazing.
Thank you.
Yes.
Yes,
yes.
OK.
Questions come in all the time and this is interesting um because this question,
it is an interesting question because a lot of people don't understand about windows and what type of style they can get and the efficiency and what they can do.
(00:27):
But a question come in,
what's the best window style for me?
And of course,
that's really a subjective question.
So if someone were to ask you that question,
aren't you asking them questions back?
I am.
Yes.
Yes.
I mean,
it,
it then I can say,
well,
what are you trying to achieve?
I mean,
do you wanna open up the view in this room more or do you want a,
(00:50):
do you have a little more heat on this side of the house?
You know,
uh where,
where does the sun come or are we wanting to make it a little cooler on this part of the house?
Because there are different levels of energy efficiency in the glass.
There's different levels of low eating.
So a whole lot of questions come from that,
you know,
what are you trying to achieve?
(01:10):
And then we can kind of walk through it and get those questions answered and we can look at different options and,
and it's important that you ask questions.
It's like when you go to the doctor and you're not feeling well,
they start asking questions.
So how long have you been feeling?
Well,
how's your appetite?
Let's take your blood pressure.
So you kind of do the same type of thing where you're,
(01:33):
you're asking questions looking for the responses because sometimes if you don't ask,
you don't know and you don't want to assume anything.
And what ends up happening is it works out best for the homeowner and for you at Woodruff Windows because ultimately,
the homeowner is telling you what they want and then you can tell them if that can be done and you might have some ideas they haven't even thought of.
(01:59):
Absolutely.
Yeah,
we do that a lot,
especially with people wanting to kind of change the feel in their living room.
You know,
reconstruct the style of window that goes in when that home was built.
Just a standard slide up and down to,
you know,
really opening up the big picture window in the middle,
maybe the side windows operate so they can still ventilate that meeting rail that goes across the window that has the latches that,
(02:24):
that's custom.
We can put that anywhere you want for the same.
There's no price difference wherever the meeting rail goes.
So a lot of the times to open up that living room,
we'll do a big picture window in the middle and then some operating windows on the side.
So you can still ventilate,
but we'll lower that meeting rail down real low.
So you,
you only have maybe this much of a sash that operates at the bottom and you have more of a picture window view up top.
(02:51):
So that eliminates all the view obstruction completely in,
in the living room.
So we do a lot of that custom stuff and you know,
asking the questions that you just said,
like,
you know,
what are you trying to achieve?
Do you want better views here?
Do you need better glass over here and then we can really narrow it down that way.
Yeah,
if your home is your castle,
if,
if it's especially the home that's gonna be your forever home,
(03:13):
you don't want to just get your windows replaced,
you wanna make sure that you have the right ones put in based on your lifestyle and what you want.
And Linda is team over at wood rof Windows can help you out with that.

my friend.
I appreciate you joining me today.
Thank you,
Joe.

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.
