First, let's take a fond look back at the week
that was. It's cow clips of the week. Thank you
the crazy meter. I am uncancellable. What's that? What kind
(00:20):
of man shaves with a Jeremy's razer? I don't know?
How about cowboys? Firefighters? Those guys? A shot Osama bin lady,
kill a bison, split, spread the blood on her foreheads
and dance around a tree? And what did you use
the dam? And then as of June first, or got
(00:43):
a smear goose liver on our chests to prevent pneumonia
and the consumption. And I think we should recognize that
jack assory we often see around here. Can you provide
a definition for the word woman? Can I provide a definition? Yeah?
I can't, You can't. The Ukrainian soldiers have surprised the world.
(01:08):
NATO officials now reportedly say forty thou Russian soldiers have
been killed, injured, captured, or are missing. And Mario Bowl
is becoming the Alamo, that is becoming a quagmire for
for Russia. It's a potent swa not a Russian people swore.
(01:29):
What is the atrocity threshold? He's now looking at serishly,
Probably chemical weapons. What China is doing is sent foods, medicine,
sleeping bags and the baby for me, not weapons. You
have to have a mass to order food. I said,
I want a cheeseburger and I want to water. Say this,
(01:52):
this argument is baseless. Drownded in front of them. The
office is faceless, big buttery juke box, egg disaster. Everybody
looks like your aunt Jill Kenny Chesney. The food give
her them. She's a play good cheerleader saves the day.
(02:19):
A couple of follow ups on the cheerleader saves the
day story. I was closing tabs on my on my
computer here that I use in the studio, and uh,
and I decided to watch that video one more time.
Hadn't occurred to me when I first watched it. She
is in a basket day. The cheerleaders are in a
basketball stadium full of screaming fans, panting, shouting athletes, referees
(02:40):
running to and fro, and the cheerleaders are the only
people wearing masks, and every single one of them is
wearing a mask. Hilarious. I didn't even know that because
of some idiotic, superstitious NC double a rule that they
well they exempted those people, and those people and well
you the fans won't cooperate anyway, So just the cheerleaders
(03:00):
were wearing masks. Second thing is that whole that new
thing where name, image, likeness and I L they call
it um. Now college kids can control her name, image
and likeness and make money from it. You know who's
making money that cheerleader. She's licensed T shirts that say
the cheerleaders saved the day and have her her image
(03:21):
on there. Wow. So what sort of wacky things are
people gonna do now? Because if you can become a
meme for a day, especially like during March Madness or
something like that, you could you could sell you'd certainly
make thousands of dollars selling T shirts. Sure, yeah, buy
yourself a car or something like that. That money. You're
not gonna be a millionaire probably, But what the hell.
(03:41):
If you're the guy who's you know, from North Carolina
and you steal the ball from the duke guy and
run out the door as the cheerleader, you would you
would you would sell fifty with the T shirts tomorrow? Yeah, exactly.
You get booted off that cheerleading squatty. You don't care
your scene there Anyway, there's gonna be real incentive to
(04:02):
go to to be able to meme yourself art strong

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.
